Recent days, Salem has been far from peaceful. Rumors have spread that Cat Greene appeared in an unstable state and proactively sought out EJ DiMera for help.

Not a normal request, but the kind of request that would make anyone listening sweat.

Cat’s eyes were filled with panic, her words were intermittent, and she even trembled when mentioning “secrets”.

From then on, the public began to ask: what is lurking behind the DiMera house?

EJ initially tried to keep his distance. He was no stranger to darkness and intrigue in his family, but this time there was something different. Cat – who was always cautious – proactively dragged EJ into some kind of conspiracy. Her hints about Chad DiMera disappeared in the middle of the night, about Kristen’s unusual silence lately, about the feeling as if someone is erasing traces of the DiMera family itself… that shocks EJ.

The moment Cat grabs EJ’s arm, saying “If you don’t help me, Salem will bleed” becomes the strongest emotional twist. EJ stands frozen, between two extremes: helping Cat means poking the poisonous hornet’s nest of his own blood. But refusing, sometimes means letting go and letting Salem suffer an unforeseen tragedy.

In the following episodes, viewers will see EJ begin an undercover investigation, secretly reviewing files, rotating the DiMera sisters’ connections, learning about strange meetings, shady dealings between Tony – Kristen – Theo. What makes the audience shiver the most is: the more EJ searches, the more he discovers that Cat is not paranoid. Something is really brewing. A tight conspiracy, enough to suffocate Salem in the dark.

The tension lies in: Cat knows more than What she dares to say. EJ knows that if Cat is so afraid, what lies ahead is not an ordinary scandal. It could be crime, death, or betrayal from the DiMera themselves. And now, viewers just have to wait for the moment EJ lifts the dark curtain, to see what Cat is up against – and whether Salem has the strength to stand?
