A new Days of Our Lives preview teases major twists ahead in Salem, including a missing baby, a trial, company drama, family tensions, and the return of someone thought to be dead. The trailer hints at secrets, legal issues, and changing alliances.
This week’s main storyline focuses on Sophia, who gives birth and tells Tate that the baby was taken by the adoptive parents right after. But things get suspicious when Javi shows up at the hospital with a newborn he found at a fire station. Kayla gets involved, and questions arise about whether the baby is really Sophia’s—and if she’s hiding something.

In the preview, Sophia gives birth and keeps the baby hidden. Later, she informs Tate that the adoptive parents were present and took the baby home right after birth. Around the same time, Javi finds a baby left in the fire station’s haven box and brings the infant to the hospital. He shared with Kayla that the baby was left anonymously. The timing of these events raises the possibility that the baby may be Sophia and Tate’s.
In Days of Our Lives, Johnny is arrested and put on trial for the attempted murder of his father, EJ.
