'Days of our Lives' weekly recap - 7/14-7/18

News spread of EJ and Abigail's affair, Kate moved back into the DiMera mansion, Brady believed a lie Theresa told him, Hope was conflicted about her feelings for Aiden, Abigail preached morals to Eve, Marlena was stunned about John's condition and Brady's behavior leading up to it, Theresa scrambled to cover her tracks, Jordan and Ben came face-to-face with Clyde.

Sami dropped the news that EJ was having an affair with Abigail to Will and Sonny. Will remembered his cousin telling him about the inappropriate guy she was seeing. He told his mother and husband he knew. Sami was stunned.

At the Horton house, Abigail cried she was a s*** for sleeping with two brothers, one of whom was engaged to be married. Jennifer continued to console her.

John found Eric at the pub and asked for his assistance in helping Brady get his life back on track. Eric stated Brady wouldn't listen to him because of what happened with Kristen. They concurred Brady and Theresa were a train-wreck. Eric told John there was nothing anyone could do about their relationship. He informed him about the AA mantra, "Let go and let God." John sighed, ignoring the former priest's request to leave things alone.

Theresa and a very drunk Brady arrived home. She looked at her wedding band and told him they have something to celebrate. He didn't know what she was talking about, but drank the champagne she gave him anyway. When Vegas weddings are mentioned, Brady discussed his hatred for weddings because of Kristen. He drank to being single, while Theresa watched in horror. After his drink, he passed out, giving Theresa the idea to call John to the mansion. Brady awoke for a moment to see John, but passed out again. His father worried about the possibility of a concussion. Theresa wasn't concerned as she showed off her marriage certificate to John, who believed she got his son to marry her under the influence. "He wasn't of sound mind, which is grounds for an annulment," he boasted to the young woman. She offered to annul the marriage without Brady's knowledge if John paid her off. John showed her the recording of her confession, revealing a look of panic on Theresa's face. The two struggled as she fell to the ground, landing next to a fire poker. She grabbed the poker and swiftly struck John in the head. He went down.

JJ remembered Eve's truce at the Horton Square and called his mother.

Jennifer ignored her phone as she and Abigail discussed the affair. Abigail was ashamed, while Jenn wanted to know why her daughter didn't confide in her. Abigail said it was over before it started. Jennifer believed EJ took advantage of her, but Abigail said she was equally responsible. She asked for her mother's forgiveness, which she got. Abigail was worried about Sami telling the world, but Jennifer stated Sami was the last person to be judgmental. JJ arrived and the women filled him in on what happened. He didn't judge his sister, given his past crimes. He wanted to go after EJ, but Jenn informed him Sami was going to take care of that. They agree it won't be easy dealing with Sami. Abigail washed her face and came down the stairs to hear Jenn and JJ discussing Eve. Jennifer was not happy he spoke to Eve. Abigail demanded to know what was going on.

At the gala, Chase and Ciara attempted to get their parents to dance together more. Marlena dropped by, and Hope praised her for hosting the event. She joked about quitting her day job, and Roman complimented her with Giselle nearby. Hope took Roman aside where he stated he couldn't wait to dump Giselle. Hope knew about Roman flirting with Marlena. Aiden and Hope were uncomfortable when Father Louis toasted their performance in putting the gala together. Hope claimed to be exhausted to leave the gala early with Ciara in tow. Marlena assumed something was not right when Aiden flashed to the romantic moment he had with Hope.

Eric arrived at Will and Sonny's apartment to hear about EJ and Abby's affair. Sami informed the men Nick arranged for the photos to be sent to her before he was murdered. Eric apologized, believing she recently found out. She shocked them more by saying she got the photos several weeks ago. She just wanted revenge. Will hugged his mother after Eric stated they should talk about this somewhere else. Will was worried about his sisters and brother. They realized it was Sami who had EJ arrested. Sonny wanted to call Abigail to offer support, but Will thought it was best to stay out of it for now. He didn't understand how EJ could do this to his mother and Abigail.

Ciara assumed Hope wanted to leave the gala because she missed Bo. Hope agreed, but remembered the almost kiss with Aiden. She became sad again.

Sami and Eric were in the park where she bragged about how rich and powerful she felt. Eric stated she would be the one hurt the most by her revenge plot.

Theresa panicked at what she did to John, so she wiped her prints off the poker. She placed it in Brady's hand, while he was still passed out. He woke up and started walking, but fell again. She yelled, "John, no!" so Henderson could arrive. She deleted the recording from John's phone and gave it to the butler, so he could call the police. Abe arrived with the paramedics as Theresa lied about what happened. She claimed to have left the room but saw Brady hit John with the poker. Brady came to as he was dragged out of the mansion, while John was taken away in an ambulance.

Eric and Sami continued to argue in the park about the revenge plot. Sami resorted to calling Abby names and admitted to enjoying telling Jennifer the truth. She did it for the both of them. She suspected EJ knew about Kristen drugging and raping him before the wedding to Brady. Eric was shocked and realized Sami was selfish. She could have helped clear his name like Nicole. She whimpered about loving EJ, and they had two kids together. Eric was worried about the kids, especially when Sami planned her next attack. She kept telling herself, chin out. Eric wanted her to take care of her kids because the last thing they needed was finding out she married their father only for revenge. Sami hyperventilated about not being able to turn away from her plans. Eric reminded her pushing the pain away wasn't going to help either. She stormed off.

Jennifer and JJ filled Abigail in on Eve wanting more royalties in the lawsuit. Abigail threatened to bash Eve's face in if she didn't back off. She apologized after. She left to tell people about her and EJ before Sami could. JJ wanted to give Sami a piece of his mind, but Jenn refused. Eric dropped by to offer his support about the Sami situation. He thought she should call Daniel, but she didn't want to spoil his evening.

Daniel was on the phone to Parker as they talked about Grandma Nancy doing fine. Eve eavesdropped and approached him when he ended the call. They had drinks as she pondered what it was like being a doctor. He got a page and ran off to the hospital. Abigail arrived and started lashing out at Eve for the trouble she is causing her mother. Eve commented on Jack being disgusted with how his daughter turned out. Abby slapped her, causing Eve to threaten having her charged with assault. JJ broke the fight up, and Abby apologized for her behavior. JJ wanted Eve to dial back the drama.

Tad and Ben talked about the wooden box Ben was planning to give Abigail at Club TBD. Sami arrived and Tad covered Ben's post, so the two could talk. She apologized for what happened at the wedding, leading to her confessing that Abigail slept with EJ. She victimized herself and told Ben it happened when he and Abby were getting close. She spoke of the evidence, but found it to be too graphic. Ben was pissed.

Brady, John, Theresa, and Abe arrived at the hospital. Theresa claimed self-defense, but Abe was confused as to how she would know that if she wasn't in the room. Brady woke up and asked about John. He rushed to get an update as soon as he found out he was in surgery. While in surgery, John flat-lined. Brady tried getting answers from Henderson, but he only heard Theresa's screams. She spun a story that Brady struck his father. Brady was horrified as Daniel came with news that John wasn't doing well.

Daniel informed Brady his father was in critical condition. Brady couldn't remember anything that happened, and was shocked he could do this. Theresa remembered hitting John with the poker as Daniel Stated they removed clots and pressure, but there was still more fluid in his head. His vitals were strong, but there are no guarantees. They could still have hope for recovery. Theresa wondered if he would be able to talk once he came to. Daniel remained unsure, but John could slip into a coma. Marlena arrived as the doctor took her aside to fill her in on her estranged husband's condition. Brady and Theresa went into another room where Theresa dropped the news that the two of them got married. He removed his ring and went to see his father. He told Marlena what happened, making her upset. Brady said he was drunk, but it must have been self-defense. Marlena went off on him about how he could do something like this to his father. Abe pressed Theresa for more answers, while Marlena went to see John. She spoke of how she couldn't lose him. Theresa's behavior made Daniel question what she did now. Abe informed her there were two sets of prints on the poker.

Kate and Clyde met at the pub where he admitted to not seeing his kids yet. He checked in with how she's been doing, and was happy to hear about her latest success. She left, while he continued to drink.

Jordan texted Ben to meet her in the woods.

Abby was about to tell Ben about her affair when he got Jordan's message. As he left, Lucas arrived, wanting to talk to his niece. Abigail spilled about the affair with EJ. Lucas quickly blamed the DiMera, not Abby. She spoke of the pain Sami was in. She quipped about Sami and Carrie calling each other and comparing notes on how great of a person she was. Lucas left.

Sami visited EJ in jail where she revealed to telling Jennifer about the affair. EJ said it was all on him, not to blame Abby. He grabbed his wife and begged her to listen. He apologized for betraying her with one mistake. She corrected him by stating it happened multiple times. He reminded her they've been through worse, but pulled through. She's the only woman he wanted to be with. Sami believed she was tolerant of the DiMera ways, but EJ threw it away. She called him out on hiring the hitman because Nick knew about the affair. EJ admitted it. She knew the joke was on her now. She was finished believing all his lies as she recounted the times she tried to keep him out of her life. She wasn't interested in hearing how he changed as she reveled in her newfound control of everything DiMera.

Ben and Jordan met in the park where they discussed how she would come clean to Rafe. Ben knew how his sister felt about Clyde, even after their mother passed away. He was tired of hiding behind her as he offered to go teach Clyde a lesson. They left each other as Jordan got a message referring to her as "Tammy Sue." Clyde approached her from behind and said hello.

Lucas found Kate at the square, and was surprised to find out she knew all along about the affair. He worried Sami would slip up with Allie, since she loved Abigail. Kate promised she would take care of it.

Sami arrived at the mansion where Kate greeted her.

Ben returned to the club. He informed Abby he knew about her and EJ.

Kate informed Sami that since DiMera Enterprises owned the mansion, she had a right to move in. She began working on a plan that would bring the company to the ground. Harold brought more drinks, while Kate wanted to redecorate the place. She pointed at Stefano's portrait, stating it would be the first to go. Sami agreed. Kate showed her partner two files; they would make some accounts flourish, while Stefano and EJ's assets would crash and burn.

Rafe told Abe at the Salem Police Department they had enough evidence to keep EJ behind bars for a long time. DiMera Enterprises was subpoenaed by the state for their financial records. Abe informed Rafe that Sami and Kate were named the new co-CEOs of the company. He was stunned, but decided to be the one to deliver the subpoena to Sami.

Clyde found Jordan at the park, where he stated "fathers never stop worrying about their little girls." It was revealed he was not her father, but her step-father. He reminded her that her birth father drank himself to death when she was only five, he wanted nothing to do with her. He asked her to call Ben, but she refused. He let his step-daughter know his people were watching him.

Ben stated it was Abby's business that she slept with EJ. She swore it didn't mean anything, and it happened before they met. She apologized for keeping it a secret. She's afraid Sami won't stop until her life is completely destroyed. When asked if she ever loved EJ, she said no. Ben left after receiving a text from Jordan.

Adrienne overheard Lucas tell Sonny that Abigail slept with EJ. She barged into the apartment, saying Jennifer had enough to deal with. She assumed the DiMera forced himself on her, but that wasn't how Abby told it. She decided to check in on Jennifer.

Will confronted EJ in prison about the affair. EJ is apologetic about disappointing him and stated he loved his mother. Will wanted to believe EJ changed, but he didn't. He was unmoved when EJ claimed he was going to get Sami back.

Rafe arrived at the mansion to give Kate the subpoena. The women complied. Harold told Sami that Sydney was asking for her, leaving Kate and Rafe alone. She filled him in on EJ's betrayal with Abby. She quipped that he and Jordan seemed happy. Sami overheard Kate admit that the two slept together recently. Sami made her presence known, and Rafe apologized for her pain with EJ. Sami was fine. He almost felt sorry for EJ. Sami confronted Kate about sleeping with Rafe. "We couldn't help ourselves." Kate gushed that Rafe would find out about Jordan's past, and if that didn't break them up, Sami could spill the beans about their night together. Sami didn't want to be involved because she hated Rafe being hurt. Kate accused her of wanting Rafe for herself. Sami only wanted to make her husband's life a living hell. The women get to work.

Ben got to the park where he was greeted by Clyde. He told the kids he got his family back together, and he wasn't letting them go again. Jordan took a minor across the state line and stole money from him. She could be charged. He threatened not to make him unhappy, he just wanted his money back. He also took Jordan's false identification cards, so she couldn't escape.

Abby visited EJ in prison. He was sorry for everything that happened and believed he was getting what he deserved. Abby told him that Sami spilled about their affair to Ben.

Will got home to find Adrienne telling everyone about Sami showing Jenn and Abby photos of the affair. Will was stunned. She was beside herself as Sonny took her aside. Lucas promised Will he would take care of the kids. He and Adrienne left. Sonny consoled Will. The magazine Will worked for wanted him to do a cover story on EJ and his mother.
