Days of Our Lives Early Spoilers Feb 2-6: EJ Rallies the DiMera Family as Stephanie Gets Kidnapped

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Feb 02-06, 2026 suggest that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) will reunite the DiMeras with the kidnapped Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein).

If you listen here regularly, you know that on Early Edition Day, we always start with what’s happening this week and then dive into what’s coming next week.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Wednesday January 28 Drama

On Wednesday, January 28, we have Abe Carver (James Reynolds) getting some really upsetting news from Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering). He shows Abe a photo of Liam’s portrait and says that the boy Abe was tutoring may have helped kidnap Theo and the other DiMeras. It seems that Peter Blake (Jason Brooks) has hired local bad boy Liam to help do his dirty work, and the ISA has uncovered a money trail between them.

That’s not a good look. He knows that that young child, his son, has him as a single criminal father. I think you said the little boy’s mom ODed, so this is going to go bad fast. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) are celebrating milestones, either personal or professional. These two have been friends for so long that there are so many options.

Meanwhile, Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols), Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu), Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson), and Stephanie gather at the apartment to plan to catch the attacker unaware that Owen is listening to their every word. Steve says that they need to make sure that the attacker knows that there is a chance to get Stephanie alone. Sure enough, the snooper is listening in on a bug that supposedly comes from EJ.

Stephanie’s Stalker One Step Ahead

If they find out there is a bug, that will cast a shadow over EJ. We already have Jeremy Horton (Trevor Donovan) suspended, so this is a smart one. I wonder if there will be a wedding party in Horton Square as part of the plan to catch the attacker. Stephanie is definitely captured before too long, and it’s obviously because the raider can stay one step ahead of everyone else because of that bug.

Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) chat shop. He got Theo’s thumbs to look into publishing Bonnie’s dirty book, so Johnny goes to talk to Kate about it. But I’m still worried that this is some kind of scheme by Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and Kate to sabotage it. The DiMera Company.

DOOL Spoilers: Thursday January 29 Secret Pregnancy and Family Outing

Thursday, January 29, we have Johnny delivering good news to Bonnie. It looks like Johnny is going to tell him DiMera he can publish his hot romance novel. Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) tries to reach out to Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd). I wonder if Dr. Mark Greene (Jonah Robinson) encourages this as he encourages the meeting of Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis).

Or maybe Chanel is reaching out on her own. He might want to see for himself if Trey’s biological mother is doing well or not. Chanel might want to update Sophia on Trey and say, “Look, let’s christen her. Here are some pictures.” She may also reveal her pregnancy at that time.

Arianna Horton (Marissa Reyes) gets a warning from her mother, Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez), and it may be about a mad dash. We know he knows Arianna has been drinking with her fake ID and it’s on. Gabi may be worried that Ari will have fun getting out of college.

Jennifer Helps Chad Date

Also, Jennifer Horton (Melissa Reeves) tells Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) that she will help him on Thursday. I wonder if this means he’s going to help convince Thomas DiMera (Christopher Cary) that he and Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) are really done.

This could be when Jen suggests that Chad and the kids move in with her and Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) in Boston for a while. We know there’s a gap between Billy Flynn and Christopher Cary exiting and when it resumes airing in April 2026 Days of Our Lives.

Also this week, Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) and her client Chad meet with Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth), representing Jack and Jennifer. Chad offered to add a “no contact with Cat” clause or a “No Polly Cat” clause to help ease Thomas’s mind.

Days of Our Lives Friday January 30: Shocking Confessions and Rumors Repeated

On Friday, January 30, we have Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) and Belle Black (Martha Madison) preparing for Rachel Black (Alice Halsey). I think this is a meeting with the judge to get the kid to admit to accidentally shooting his uncle EJ. Although, if you point a gun at someone and they get shot, that’s not really dangerous.

However, this could see Rachel sentenced to Bayview for a while, until she turns 18, given the file DCFS has already built on her and the warnings Kristen and Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) would receive if she stepped out of line again.

Days of Our Lives: Will the Reversal be done with SORAS?

I also wonder if we might get a Rachel SORAS – soap opera rapid aging syndrome – recast where she replaces Alice Halsey and Holly Jonas. You know they say you’ve been kicked out for years and then boom you’re back at 18.

Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien) becomes furious and calls another hated von Leuschner to help her. It’s Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel), who hates the family of Dimitri von Leuschner DiMera (Peter Porte) now more than ever. Gwen wants his help to get rid of Dimitri again.

I wonder if Vivian will have a way to stop Dimitri from divorcing Gwen. Right now Dimitri thinks she’s cool and she can divorce him and marry Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) if she wants to. Vivian may ask to send Ivan Marais (Ivan G’Vera) to capture Dimitri and return him to the cage in Alamainia.

Marlena warns Xander about something at the end of the week. It can be about Basic Black or maybe about Xander not being jealous of Brady and Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey), who they know are in love. In addition, Brady gains loyalty from Sarah. I wonder if she’s going to tell Brady that Kristen told her not to go because it’s the best thing for Rachel.

The irony of this is that Brady was telling Kristen that the therapist was very clear that they needed to stand together and say, “No, we’re not getting back together.” But then Kristen does the same thing by manipulating Brady’s love life. Meanwhile, Leo needs to find a way to get Dimitri out of his mind and get Javi Hernandez (Al Calderon) back into his arms.

Days of Our Lives Weekly Spoilers: February sweeps and the DiMera Legacy

The week of February 2nd to 6th is the first full week of the February sweep. We’re going to have Stephanie kidnapped soon because of that bugged frame and Owen Kent (Wes Ramsey) knows everything. Alex will attack Jeremy, thinking he is a hostage. The big question is whether he and Owen are working together or if Jeremy is just a redneck.

Liam will probably be arrested soon. And he might take a plea deal where he’ll get a pass if he helps Rafe find the boss after the kidnapping. Abe may never forgive himself for bringing Liam back into Theo’s life after finding out he was part of the kidnapping.

Stefano DiMera’s Fair Submission

The DiMera family wants to host a proper funeral and memorial service for Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo). It is surprising as Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) vows to place Stefano’s remains in the mausoleum. So, how did they end up under the concrete? EJ immediately puts on Stefano’s ring and assures everyone that the DiMeras will not fall.

We will have Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) back for this memorial service. And Theo is out of the hospital and here. We’re getting closer and closer to retrieving the dead woman from the test tube. We will make another video about that. Check back tomorrow because there is another woman on the loose who may be who you are.

Rafe may agree to hear Kristen out when she reveals the plot to expose EJ again. Xander will be hitting the sheets with Gwen soon. Holly rushes to join the Salem youth sorority and develops a bad attitude. And Sophia prospers against all her enemies.
