Days of our Lives spoilers for the week of April 21-25, 2025 tease there may be more than one major awakening.

Here’s What Happens Next Week On Days of our Lives

It’s gearing up to be a thrilling week in Salem, and it all starts when EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) gets a special visitor: Susan (Stacy Haiduk). When his mother sits at his bedside, it may be just what he needs, because come Tuesday, EJ will wake up! Later in the week is when things get interesting, however, when Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) is said to be struck by her brother’s demeanor. Now that EJ is awake from his coma, is he not the same EJ we all know and hate?

Next week is also the fundraiser for Salem University Hospital. It’s been teased that Chad (Billy Flynn) and Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) will auction themselves off for dates… as long as they aren’t too jealous. The fundraiser will kick off mid-week just when EJ wakes up.

Odds and Ends

As for The Kiriakises, now that Xander (Paul Telfer) knows the truth about Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) and the forged letter, he’s raging at anyone who knew, and the week will start off with him wanting answers from Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Stephanie (Abigail Klein).

The week will end with a bang when Shawn (Brandon Beemer) receives news about Bo (Peter Reckell). Shawn has been so caught up in EJ’s shooting and his sort-of affair with Jada (Elia Cantu), he could use some good news about his father.
