While everyone is immersed in the sweet emotions of the adoption day, in another corner of Salem, a secret agreement is being formed between two names that make everyone feel uneasy: E.J. DiMera and Leo Stark.

The opening scene shows E.J. coming to Leo at the bar, ordering two drinks, his voice calm but full of hidden meaning: “You did well. But I need you to keep quiet for a while longer.”

Leo raised his head, smiled faintly: “I keep quiet very well, unless someone pays a higher price.”

Just a few short sentences, the audience immediately understood – something extremely important is being hidden, and Leo is the one who holds the key.

According to sources from behind the scenes, Leo witnessed or accidentally learned a detail related to baby Tesoro – maybe the baby’s true origin, or a plot set up by E.J. to test Johnny’s favor. E.J., in classic DiMera style, always knows how to “create a scenario to control others”.
Leo, on the other hand, is never loyal to anyone but himself. The handshake between these two does not promise good things.

At the end of the episode, there is a scene where Leo quietly leaves the square, holding a thin file bag in his hand. The streetlights shine on his face – half light, half dark. When he turns back, viewers catch E.J. standing in the distance, his eyes cold as steel. A slow smile appears on E.J.’s lips – the smile of someone who knows he has just set a trap.

If this secret is really revealed, Johnny and Chanel’s joy may collapse overnight. And what fans are most excited about is: Will Leo keep his promise to stay silent, or will he betray him for some unexpected reason?
