Days of Our Lives shows that Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) still can’t get over the fact that Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) have her infant son, Trey, in their care and the adoption’s about to be finalized.
We’re wondering if crazy teen mom Sophia escapes from Bayview to take matters into her own hands or if she finds a way to pressure her lawyer, Melinda Trask (Tina Huang), to make her do the dirty work?
Days of our Lives: Sophia Won’t Stop
Right now, Sophia seems dead set on getting her baby away from Johnny and Chanel. Now, Sophia still blames Johnny for his initial indecision about the adoption for ruining Sophia’s plans for college and now, she’s landed in the mental ward.
Sophia’s made it clear to both Melinda and her little gal pal, Rachel Black, that she doesn’t want little Trey legally adopted by Johnny and Chanel. She doesn’t want them fostering her son or involved in his life at all. Sophia’s super salty.
Days of our Lives: Melinda Tries to Talk Sense into Sophia
Meanwhile, Melinda tried to convince Sophia that she just needs to move on with her life, as hard as that may seem. And Melinda said that she believes the DiMera couple will take good care of their adopted son, Trey.
Plus, Sophia thinks that because Chanel is pregnant now, that Trey will be ignored, unwanted and possibly mistreated once the new baby comes into their lives. That’s because Trey’s not Johnny and Chanel’s biological child so she thinks he’ll get a raw deal.
Of course, Melinda tried talking sense into her. But instead of agreeing with her lawyer, Sophia threatened to contact the bar about how Melinda did unethical things for her. After Sophia’s threat, Melinda felt she had no other choice than to mail Sophia’s “gift” to Rachel.
That’s the bottle of psych meds disguised as skin health supplements. The tween is supposed to give them to Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) as a present, even though Rachel had her doubts. Needless to say, we can see that Sophia keeps spiraling and being her little conniving self.
She’s enjoying every minute of Holly’s downfall watching social media videos on her contraband cell phone. And Sophia blackmailed Rachel into delivering the gift by threatening to tell her dad, Brady Black (Eric Martsolf), that she stole money from his wallet. So, Rachel’s stuck like Melinda is.
DOOL: Johnny and Chanel Plan Adoption Celebration
Recently, Chanel and Johnny were excitedly talking about the upcoming court visit with the judge to finalize Trey’s adoption. They’re also planning an intimate family celebration at the Brady Pub to celebrate.
And Johnny and Chanel are planning a larger party once Eli Grant (Lamon Archey) and Lani Price (Sal Stowers) Grant move back to Salem with their twins, Jules and Carver. Plus, Chanel and Johnny want to make sure Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) is home safe before inviting more of Salem to celebrate the baby’s adoption.
If you recall, Sophia really wants Melinda to pull some strings to get Trey out of Johnny and Chanel’s care and put him into a different home before the adoption finalizes. Meanwhile, Sophia still doesn’t think she wants to be a mom to her child.
But at the same time, she doesn’t want Johnny and Chanel to have Trey which seems cruel because this is already his second family, after being fostered by the Hernandez family. So I wonder if Melinda follows through and finds a loophole or way to contest the adoption.
Because she knows Sophia’s manipulative and insane and Melinda doesn’t want to lose her law license and face possible criminal charges. But she may have to go back to Sophia and tell her that she tried but couldn’t find a way to stop it and once it’s legal, that’s it. Adoption finalized.
Sophia May Take Matters into Her Own Hands on Days of our Lives
If Melinda fails or says she did, then Sophia may feel she has no other choice but to take care of matters herself. Remember, Melinda and Rachel are the only two people who know Sophia’s faking her catatonic state. And now, she’s blackmailing both of them.
But with Rachel and Melinda being hesitant about her requests, Sophia may have doubts about their loyalty, even though she could wreak havoc on their lives by giving crucial and harmful information on them to the right people on Days of our Lives.
We’ve known for a while that Sophia wants to break out of Bayview, and leave Salem for good to start a new life somewhere else. And we’ve seen her slip out of Bayview before, so why hasn’t she gone yet? Maybe it’s about needing money for a new life.
Or it could be because Sophia wants to make sure Trey’s not adopted by Johnny and Chanel before she goes. I’m also wondering if Sophia might get in touch with her baby daddy, Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo) to ask for help.
He signed his parental rights away and gave Johnny and Chanel his blessing to raise his son. But Sophia might pressure Aaron to protest the adoption. I don’t think he’d agree to it and Sophia’s got nothing to use to blackmail Aaron into cooperating so that’s highly unlikely.
And we know Tate Black (Leo Howard) and Holly are going through their own drama, all thanks to Sophia’s sneaky psych drugs. So, I think she may decide if Melinda fails her, that Sophia will have to do this herself. And she may kidnap her son.
Could Sophia Kidnap or Sell Baby Trey on Days?
To be honest, Sophia’s so diabolical she may take Trey and try to sell him on the black market to get the money she needs to start her new life. Sophia says she wants the best for Trey, but Sophia has absolutely lost her mind and I don’t think she knows what’s best for her son.
Even her therapist, Dr. Gregory, has no idea what she’s capable of. And the shrink is clueless about Sophia faking her non-verbal state. With a big party coming soon after the adoption hearing, I could see Johnny and Chanel being horrified that their son goes missing.
Sophia could sneak out and use a busy party as a way to creep into the Pub and snatch the guest of honor at the adoption party and sneak out the back door. And yes, I know that would be the second kidnapping in a row, but it is Days…
