Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/22 will reveal a world of pain for Chad, Jennifer and Jack when the truth about Abigail comes to light.
Friday’s cliffhanger has confirmed what many of us suspected: the mystery woman is not Abigail, but is playing the Devereaux family for reasons of her own.
Jennifer rushes back to Salem from Boston, eager to see her daughter, and nearly everyone in the family is excited, but it only breaks their hearts.
Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/22 herald the beginning of a bumpy journey
Abigail’s family won’t learn the truth for a while
The truth will not come out all at once. That wouldn’t be any fun.
We’re currently in the lead-up, and Jennifer’s return to Salem is a sign of great drama to come.
“Abigail” will likely play a daughter who is not dead, who suffers from amnesia and has no idea who these people are who are so excited to see her.
While it’s understandable that Abigail’s family wants her back so badly that they’ll believe anything that suggests it’s possible, it’s equally irritating that once-edgy characters like Jack and Jennifer are so Easily covered with snow.
Resurrection from the dead is such a strange thing that happens in Salem that no one finds “Abigail’s” story suspicious, but that doesn’t excuse two people who were once top investigative reporters using their brains.
Hopefully, when JJ returns this fall, he’ll have the same keen instinct to distrust Liam when everyone else thinks his weird behavior is normal.
Meanwhile, Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/24 reveal that Chad will continue to try to get close to the woman he believes to be his late wife.
Chad is doing a delicate balancing act. He doesn’t want to be like Stefan, who exploited Abigail’s mental illness to have sex with her without her consent, but he also wants to push her to remember their life together.
The mysterious woman must also be careful to make her amnesia believable while making enough progress to make her deception believable.
Gabi’s confrontation with Ava and Stefan should be epic
The story gave Cherie Jimenez a chance to solidify her interpretation of Gabi
Gabi’s decision to confront Stefan and Ava at the bistro was brilliant.
Sure, her love for Stefan is a little thick, but her decision to free herself from the shadows of these two con men by toasting what they’ve done is a plot twist that Stefan and Ava didn’t see coming.
It’s classic Gabby…but with a new actress.
Cherie Jimenez only recently took over the role of Gabby. Recasting is always difficult, especially when an actress has been attached to a character for years, but this story will give Jimenez the chance to show off her unique take on Gabi’s angry side.
Chad tries to comfort “Abigail.”
But who is she?
Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/22 don’t mention fake Abigail’s true identity.
Judging from the one-sided phone call on Friday, it seems like she’s working with Clyde, but could that be fake?
After Dimera’s fortune, the woman might just be a con artist, as happened in an iconic story from Neighbors that involved a fake person impersonating someone’s dead wife.
She could also be another enemy of Chad or Jack. Her connection to John remains unknown, but the fact that she lived in the room where John was imprisoned suggests that she could be Katharina or someone else with ties to the Constantine family.
Leo continues to mistake Heidi for Marina
How long will this stupidity last?
This story reflects the writing team’s dedication to doppelgangers.
Marina resembles that for a while, but the story is completely ridiculous and relies on Leo and Heidi’s silliness.
Leo never called Heidi “Doctor.” Evans” and Heidi somehow can’t figure out that he thinks she’s Marlena, even though the whole point of her character is that people always mistake her for Marlena. Come on!
Will Chanel and Alex become the latest body and soul characters?
Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/24 say they will be invited to audition
The storyline of “Body and Soul” also fell out of favor.
At first, it was a cute meta storyline about our favorite soap characters creating their own soaps, but at this point, it’s a waste of screen time.
Abe and Kate have been debating whether to hire various Salemites to replace actors who don’t want to relocate, and now Abe will invite Chanel and Alex to audition.
Alex is newly single — Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/24 say he also got an annulment from Theresa — and Chanel is his ex but is now married to Johnny, Johnny is directing this monster, so this smells like a setup for a terrible and unnecessary love triangle.
Jada is about to be arrested in Sarah’s case
As usual, she might have the wrong person
Fiona clearly thought all the cover-up for Your Honor was a good idea, as she did everything she could to blame Brady for Sarah’s accident.
Brady has been through this before. Not long ago, he was falsely accused of Phillip’s “murder” as part of a plan to split Brady and Chloe for the sake of drama.
This time, though, Brady was drunk, not someone making it look like he fell off the wagon, and he didn’t want people to know he was with Fiona. All this will make it more difficult for him to clear his name.
Connie targets Melinda
Latest vendetta could be serial killer’s undoing
Melinda knows Connie is a liar, but she doesn’t know she’s also a killer, and Days of Our Lives spoilers for the week of 8/19/24 reveal that she’s putting herself in Connie’s sights.
Melinda isn’t the kind of evil character we like, and even though we don’t want to hang out with her, she doesn’t deserve to be stabbed in the back or poisoned.
She’s also smart and well-connected, so Connie’s decision to get revenge for Melinda firing her isn’t her best idea.
Maybe going after Melinda will unravel Connie’s evil plans so Salem can get rid of her. That would make Melinda suddenly decide it was worth firing her.
Sophia performs for Tate Gallery
Scorned teen’s revenge on Holly isn’t over yet
Days of Our Lives loves its twisted love triangle, and Sofia seems to be on her way to becoming a Jane Spears-like obsession.
She was supposed to perform for Tate, which many assumed meant she would try to have sex with him.
But that doesn’t work, like Eve and Paige’s friends’ stupid plan to get JJ to sleep with a prostitute. Still, Sophia holds all the cards because she knows Tate has never been to a lacrosse camp, although good luck to Brady considering his current status.
Over time, Sophia will likely become more obsessed and dangerous, and we’re here for that.
