While Leo and Javi were grappling with their romantic drama, another story moved veteran fans: Tony and Anna DiMera reunited after years apart.

From being misunderstood, Tony returned to Salem exhausted, his body wounded, his heart filled with guilt.

Anna met Tony again at Salem Hospital in a dramatic scene: he woke up in the middle of a snowstorm, seeing her through a frosted glass pane.

They confronted each other after all these years – memories flooding back: separations, betrayals, and mistakes Tony believed were irreparable.

The scene between them is considered one of the most “cinematic” moments of the season: Anna gently placed her hand on Tony’s cheek, tears falling, asking only one question: “Why didn’t you come back?” – and Tony replied, “Because I was afraid you wouldn’t forgive me.”

But Salem never allowed happiness to last. Shortly after they embraced, a strange nurse delivered a letter to Tony, inside which was a photograph of him standing next to a mysterious woman – accompanied by the words, “You promised me before you left.” The story immediately took a different turn. Anna now faced the biggest question: Was this love real, or just a series of lies orchestrated from the beginning?
