If the audience thought that the tension only revolved around EJ or Tony, the next plot line will make everyone restless.

Four powerful faces – Alex Kiriakis, Brady Black, Philip Kiriakis and Xander Cook – entered a meeting and quickly turned it into a battlefield.

Alex slammed the table to assert his leadership, Brady angrily retorted, Philip impatiently took control, and Xander laughed sarcastically, not hesitating to challenge all three.

The atmosphere was as tense as a string, each word was like a sharp knife.

The audience could clearly feel: this was not just a business argument, but also a fight for honor and power.

The climax reached its peak when Alex growled: “If anyone is not capable enough, it is best to withdraw, do not turn the company into a farce!” That statement immediately made Brady furious, Philip blushed, and Xander responded with a dangerous smile. This clash will certainly have serious consequences for both the company and the relationship between the four characters.

Meanwhile, to lighten the dark picture, the episode ended with a lighter story line: Chad DiMera shared his worries with Cat. He confided that he was insecure about the future, maybe about his son Thomas, Cat’s new job, or even the instability in the family. Cat listened, gently held Chad’s hand, bringing a warm moment in the storm of drama.

The contrast between the four men’s fight and the sweet moment between Chad and Cat created an emotional balance. It reminded the audience that Salem is not all about intrigue and conflict, but still has human moments that make people believe in love.
