What Happened on Days of our Lives
At the hospital, Brady told Sarah that Rachel had given her the pistachio ice cream. She was stunned, but not as much as when he told her that Rachel shot EJ. They were interrupted by Xander, who wanted to check on Sarah as soon as he’d heard she was hospitalized.
Sarah dryly told Xander she was fine, thanks to Brady. He thanked Brady, though he was shaken that she could have died. Xander left peacefully, and Brady acknowledged that the interaction couldn’t have been easy for her. Sarah said that Xander broke her heart, but what he was going through was the focus. She promised to be there for him and Rachel.
Sarah felt bad about what happened when Rachel was a baby. Brady reminded Sarah that it was Xander who gave Rachel to her, and that was what bonded them. Sarah found it hard to process that the person who gave her the biggest gift was someone she couldn’t stand to look at now. Brady empathized as he loved Rachel, but Kristen was her mother. Sarah was grateful that Brady felt he could trust her with what Rachel had done. Sarah asked him to tell Rachel that she forgave her and that she loved her. “Everything is going to be okay, I promise,” Sarah said. “For the both of us,” Brady replied.
At the Horton house, Jennifer was going through the Thanksgiving placecards and saw Doug’s. She asked Thomas to tuck it away somewhere safe for now. When she looked at Chad’s card, Thomas snarked that he was glad he would be seeing his dad on the holiday. Charlotte, however, didn’t feel the same way.
By the time Julie came back from the graveyard, she could tell that Thomas needed a talking to. She sat with him and suggested that, despite his anger, he didn’t let his dad be alone for the holiday. Thomas begrudgingly agreed, so Julie called Chad and left him a message, inviting him to Thanksgiving dinner with his kids.
Later, Jennifer asked Julie’s opinion of her suing for custody of the kids. Julie believed she had good intentions, but she knew what it was like to be separated from your kids and had empathy for Chad. Jennifer agreed that Chad was still family, and Julie did the right thing by inviting him. She said the last thing she wanted to do was to make the holidays more difficult for anyone, especially Julie.
At the pub, Phillip and Gabi have their date. Across the room, Steve and Kayla meet for theirs as well. Roman, however, decided to have Trivia Night at the pub, and they wound up competing against one another, and Steve and Kayla won.
Gabi invited Philip to Thanksgiving dinner, and he accepted. Later, Xander came in and told them about seeing Sarah…and Brady. Xander asked if Philip had Thanksgiving plans, so Gabi invited him as well.
