In the May 7, 2025 episode of Days of Our Lives, EJ leaves a voicemail for his son, expressing his love. While going through the mail, he comes across an envelope with “DiMera” visible in the return address. Upon opening it, EJ finds a get-well card from none other than Stefan.
Meanwhile, EJ attempts to take control of the hospital in Salem by leveraging his wealth. He discusses his plan with Dr. Russell, who remains uncertain. However, if the experimental drug proves successful, it could secure the hospital’s future for years.
Kayla faces a difficult choice between standing by her past decisions and helping Bo. As Bo’s health worsens, Kayla and Steve decide to steal a dose of the sepsis drug that could save him, realizing it may be their only hope.
In hopes of her plan’s success, Kayla arranges for Dr. Russell to attend a medical conference in Chicago, temporarily getting him out of the way.
Meanwhile, Stephanie confronts Philip. He apologizes, and she questions why he didn’t go through legal channels. While Philip doesn’t regret his actions, he does regret the hurt he caused others. Despite their honest conversation, Stephanie remains upset and feels that rekindling their friendship isn’t likely—at least not for now.
On the other hand, Sarah and Xander try to unwind with a relaxing spa weekend. However, Xander struggles to stay present, as his mind keeps drifting back to the sepsis drug and the weight of everything going on.
In the episode, Philip and Belle meet at the town square, where Philip confesses to feeling guilty about hurting Xander.
