Salem Hospital is becoming a battlefield as Thomas DiMera is still in critical condition, and Jennifer Horton – the boy’s mother – officially “turns on revenge mode”.

She declared in front of Chad and E.J.: “If my child does not survive, I will drag the DiMera family to hell.”

The sentence rang out like a curse, making E.J. stunned, and Chad fell into crisis.

While Jennifer sobbed by her son’s bed, E.J. DiMera and Chad entered a heated argument.

Chad believed that Thomas’s accident was related to a kidnapping and extortion ring operating in Salem, while E.J. suspected that it was a “warning” from Sami. The two men who were once on the same side now turned against each other. Chad screamed: “If you don’t stop, you will be the one who will kill Thomas!” – and E.J. coldly replied: “I only protect what is mine.”

Meanwhile, Holly Jonas and Tate Black – a young couple who accidentally got involved in the Horton family’s media project – discovered a strange video in the archive, showing a secret agreement between the Horton and DiMera families from many years ago. Before they could understand, the video was suddenly deleted from the system, and the administrator account matched… Sami Brady.

On the outside, Sami still played the role of an indifferent person, but her eyes said it all: she was holding a secret that was enough to make Salem collapse. A scene was revealed: Sami stood on the upper floor of the hospital, looking down at the crowd and whispering: “It’s just beginning.” The scene ended with the alarm bell from Thomas’s room – the audience’s hearts tightened.
