Days of Our Lives 2-week spoilers for February 23-March 06, 2026 find Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) is raging and Owen Kent (Wes Ramsey) returns.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Alex Hits Justin with Big News
On Monday, February 23rd, Alex shares exciting news with his dad, Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth). Alex tells Justin that he and Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) ran off and got married in Chicago. His fiancée surprised him with a wedding. Justin is going to be sad that he missed it, but everyone missed it. And it was just the two of them and Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu). They plan to have a bigger ceremony later.
Plus, Bonnie Kiriakis (Judi Evans) is thrilled when she gets an update from Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman). Her steamy book may be officially ready to be published by DiMera. Meanwhile, Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) makes a shocking discovery. It may be that Stephanie is missing, or she might find Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) in the closet.
DOOL Spoilers: The Mystery Kidnapper Targets Stephanie Johnson
The stalker makes his move on Monday. A guy in scrubs and a mask chats with and then chloroforms Stephanie in her office at the hospital. He stashes her down in a basement storage room. This is neither Jeremy Horton (Michael Roark) nor Owen Kent who snatches her.
The kidnapper (Dan Coons) is an actor who plays bit parts on Days. It definitely looks like there is more than one stalker, or perhaps we have a stalker and a henchman, or full-fledged co-conspirators.
Jada is sifting through evidence with Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) as they check Stephanie’s office. This week, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) tells Kayla that Jeremy doesn’t fit the usual profile of a kidnapper. Kayla asks if Marlena thinks Jeremy is actually capable of kidnapping Stephanie.
Days Spoilers: Alex Kiriakis Vows Revenge and Punches Jeremy Horton
On Tuesday, February 24th, Alex makes a vow. He promises that if anyone lays a finger on Stephanie’s head, he will kill them. We know he soon corners Jeremy at the hospital and punches him.
Kayla lays into EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) at University Hospital while Alex and Jada listen. Kayla may be blaming EJ for Stephanie’s kidnapping, perhaps suggesting the budget cuts meant security cameras weren’t maintained. The DiMeras were involved in Stephanie’s past kidnapping where Owen was the perpetrator back in 2016.
Steve is out and about in Salem searching everywhere for his daughter, but they have her well-hidden. It looks like they never even left the hospital with her. The kidnapper confronts Stephanie in a showdown in the storage room. She is tied up, and Jeremy is there smirking at her, even though he wasn’t the one who physically snatched her.
Days of Our Lives Sweeps Week Climax: EJ DiMera’s Scheme and a Dangerous Shooting
Wednesday, February 25th, is the last day of sweeps. EJ makes an offer to a minor criminal named Liam Selejko (Hank Northrop). So, EJ rolls up and scares the young man because Liam is the one link tying Vivian Alamain’s (Louise Sorel) henchmen to the DiMera kidnapping.
EJ wants Vivian to pay and wants her in prison. He may ask Liam to lure the henchman Klaus so they can nab him. This could be what triggers Shawn-Douglas Brady’s (Brandon Beemer) shooting, as Jack Junior (JJ) Deveraux (Casey Moss) and Liam are with Shawn when the violence breaks out. It may be the “bad guy” Klaus who pulls the trigger.
Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) and Sarah bond over being moms. Chanel is up for a baby checkup and gets to hear the heartbeat, but Johnny isn’t there. Elsewhere, Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) and Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) are searching for Stephanie. Rafe gets into a secret lab because Cat has an ISA code-reading device. Rafe is shocked when he sees a mysterious tube.
Teen Drama Erupts: Holly’s Meltdown and Ariana’s New Romance on DOOL
Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) goes off on Arianna “Ari” Grace Horton (Marissa Reyes) after already raging at Tate Black (Leo Howard). If Holly finds out Ari was offered a spot in the sorority she wanted, she might blow up. Ari claps back and tells Holly to “snap out of this glitch” because it’s not cute. However, the poor girl is being drugged.
Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) works to convince Dimitri von Leuschner DiMera (Peter Porte) that they need to run because they aren’t able to get the evidence they need. Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) is encouraged by Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier), and his support works on her guilty conscience regarding the hidden bug that tanked Titan.
Ari has a “meet-cute” with Liam and gives the handsome criminal a kiss on the cheek. You know her mom is going to hate that. On Thursday, February 26th, EJ DiMera and Abe Carver (James Reynolds) talk about their agreement. EJ wants Johnny to stay CEO at DiMera, and Abe wants Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) out of the job for good. Reviving Lexie Carver (Renee Jones) may be part of EJ’s plan to push Theo out. Paulina Price (Jackée Harry) is supportive of Theo, but Abe may not agree with her.
Tate comforts Holly. She’s distraught about the video and Ari just read her the riot act. Her life is falling apart while Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) is cheering from the sidelines. Speaking of, Sophia blackmails Rachel Black (Alice Halsey). Sophia calls Rachel to tell her she has to give Holly a gift, but Rachel can’t tell Holly it’s from Sophia. Johnny tells Chanel he’s sorry for missing the baby appointment.
Days of Our Lives Spoilers: The Return of Owen Kent and the Search for Stephanie Intensifies
On Friday, February 27th, Leo and Dimitri are anxious. Steve and Jada are pounding the pavement to find Stephanie. Meanwhile, she is trying to get free from her chair in the storage room. Alex and Brady go out looking for her. Remember, Brady helped rescue her from Owen Kent way back when she was kidnapped before on Days of our Lives.
Wes Ramsey is back as Owen Kent. Steve grabs a guy in a black hoodie in the park expecting it to be Jeremy, but it is Owen. Brady is there when it happens. Again, neither Owen nor Jeremy are the ones who actually chloroformed Stephanie.
Salem’s Future: A Human Trial and New Love Connections on DOOL
During the week of March 2nd through the 6th, Ari continues crushing on Liam. Dating an ex-con might not be good for her social profile, even if he is handsome. Gabi digs up more of Stefan DiMera’s (Brandon Barash) writing samples to see if her divorce documents were forged.
The DiMeras will be furious if Gabi gets a cut of the estate when the will reading happens soon. The search for Stephanie intensifies. Since a “rando” snatched her, Jeremy should have an alibi, but he still looks guilty. Alex, Steve, Kayla, and Jada are all hands on deck to find her.
EJ pursues Cat to figure out their connection, and she kisses him soon. Is it for ISA business or for pleasure? Meanwhile, Rafe is nearly ready for a human trial of his serum combined with Versix. The “test tube lady” should be awake soon.
Jada is drawn to Shawn after his shooting, while Theo has his mind on Gabi. Shawn and Jack Junior face danger trying to find the person above Liam in the kidnapping food chain. That is likely what puts Shawn in the line of fire.
