The Blackout in Salem not only brings darkness, but also becomes a catalyst for long-hidden secrets to gradually be revealed.

And in the episode on September 29, 2025, the biggest shock comes from EJ DiMera and Belle Brady – two characters who have faced off many times in heated debates.

In a dim space, with only flickering candlelight, EJ suddenly comes to Belle.

No longer cold as usual, he appears with a tense face, his eyes heavy as if he is hiding a huge burden.

Belle, initially wary, thinks that EJ is about to launch a new political or legal trick. But this time, what EJ brings with him is not a scheme, but… a confession.

“Belle, I can’t keep this secret any longer. The darkness made me realize that if I don’t have the chance to tell it tomorrow, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life.” – EJ began, his voice choking.

Belle was stunned when she heard what EJ admitted: he confessed about a past incident, directly related to the Brady family. An incident that, if exposed, would not only ruin EJ’s reputation, but also put the relationship between the two families in danger.

The scene was staged with tension: Belle was both shocked and angry, standing up to leave, but EJ held her hand, begging to be listened to. EJ’s rare tears surprised the audience – was this true regret, or just a new game he was playing in the dark?
