The most talked-about plot point this week is the secret alliance between Xander Cook and Kate Roberts.

Two people who were once on opposing sides – one a cunning gangster with a troubled past, the other the scheming queen of Salem – are now working together to save Titan from collapse.

According to leaks from the set, the two first met after an emergency meeting about the financial situation.

Xander, after being fired from his director position, discovers someone is manipulating Titan’s stock to sell it to DiMera Enterprises.

Meanwhile, Kate – with the experience of someone who has risen and fallen – decides to get involved.

Spoilers also reveal they will pretend to be lovers to deceive the media, causing viewers to go wild over their explosive chemistry. The scene of Xander kissing Kate in the Titan lobby “just to distract attention” has gone viral on social media.

But deep down, they both know this is no longer a simple power struggle – it’s a battle for survival, a fight for loyalty, honor, and an unexpected romance blossoming between them.

Will this unlikely pair truly save the Titan, or will they be consumed by their own machinations?
