Days of Our Lives kicks off the week with a gut-punch of an episode on Monday, May 19. The Kiriakis family is shaken to its core after Kate Roberts Brady finds her son Philip badly beaten and unconscious in his hotel suite. The culprit? Xander—who vanished after unleashing a brutal assault.
Philip is rushed to the hospital, while Maggie Kiriakis grows suspicious of Xander’s bloodied hands and evasive answers. But she’s not the only one closing in. Sarah Horton Kiriakis is set to confront her husband later this week, and her fury will be anything but subtle.
As the fallout spreads, Alex Kiriakis hears of Philip’s condition and zeroes in on Xander with barely-contained rage. Though he’s been trying to forge peace with Xander, this attack threatens to snap whatever fragile bond they had. Stephanie Johnson steps in, urging Alex not to let vengeance cloud his judgment.
Meanwhile, time is running out for Bo Brady. Steve Johnson and Shawn Brady are still scrambling to locate the stolen Versavix drug, with Kevin Lambert playing a dangerous game by hoarding the only doses that could save Bo’s life.
Between Philip’s fight for survival, Xander’s spiraling secrets, and the race to save Bo, Salem is simmering with suspense. Monday’s episode kicks off a week packed with revelations, regrets, and reckoning—and no one will walk away untouched.
