April 18, 2025 | By [Your Name]
Salem is boiling over with secrets, lies, and long-buried truths in Days of Our Lives’ latest episode, delivering all the drama fans crave—and then some. In an hour packed with emotional confessions, dangerous plots, and a woman at her breaking point, Thursday’s episode was a rollercoaster of deceit and desperation.
Vivian’s Bombshell Blows Up Titan
It all starts with Vivian Alamain, newly freed and more dangerous than ever. After exposing Philip Kiriakis’s forged letter scheme, she storms into Xander Kiriakis’s sleek new office—and drops a bomb. The letter naming Philip as Titan’s co-CEO? A forgery. And not from Victor at all.
This truth threatens to completely upend the power structure at Titan. Vivian, with her signature venom, warns that Xander has been robbed of what’s rightfully his. Philip, who’s been basking in the spotlight, suddenly finds himself cornered—and terrified. Xander’s temper is legendary, and this betrayal may just push him over the edge.
Sarah’s Crushing Confession
Meanwhile, Sarah Kiriakis battles guilt that refuses to let her sleep. In a tearful, early morning scene, she finally opens up to Maggie Horton Kiriakis. “I forged the letter,” she confesses, her voice shaking. Believing she was protecting Xander and preserving the fragile peace in the family, Sarah now sees the fallout spiraling out of control.
Maggie is shocked but not unsympathetic. She urges Sarah to tell Xander the truth before someone else—namely Vivian—beats her to it. But is it already too late?
Family Ties, Fights, and Fear
Elsewhere, Philip and Alex Kiriakis clash again, this time over the deception that has tainted the company and their family. Alex is disgusted by the lies and isn’t hiding it. Their argument is intense—but nothing compared to the fury Xander is about to unleash once he learns the truth.
Stephanie Johnson, caught in the family crossfire, turns to her mother, Kayla, for wisdom. She may not reveal everything, but it’s clear she’s struggling with how to handle the emotional fallout of the Kiriakis implosion.
Marlena Breaks Down as Orpheus Stays Silent
As Titan unravels, another storm brews far from boardroom battles. Marlena Evans and Steve Johnson continue their tense interrogation of Orpheus, desperate for answers about John Black’s whereabouts. But Orpheus is stone-cold and unyielding, offering no real leads.
Steve urges caution, sensing they’ve hit a dead end. But Marlena, emotionally wrecked and unwilling to give up, snaps. Her desperation is palpable as she refuses to leave Estonia without uncovering the truth. The frustration, fear, and raw emotion in this storyline make it one of the most powerful in recent memory.
Is Xander in Danger?
Vivian’s game is far from over. With her secret out and leverage slipping, she’s toying with a more permanent solution: eliminating Xander altogether. It wouldn’t be the first time she’s taken a life—and she may already be looking for someone to do the job. Philip, already fearful for his life, must decide whether to come clean and risk everything, or stay quiet and let the storm destroy his brother.
As the power struggle at Titan reaches a boiling point, and as secrets ripple across Salem like aftershocks, the future of multiple characters hangs in the balance. Can the Kiriakis family survive this level of betrayal? Will Marlena uncover the truth about John before it’s too late? And will Vivian’s scheming finally catch up with her?

From boardroom betrayals to international manhunts, Days of Our Lives is firing on all cylinders. With brilliant performances and high-stakes plotlines, the April 18th episode proves once again why this soap remains a powerhouse in daytime television.
