Three Most Jaw-Dropping ‘Days Of Our Lives’ Moments The Week Of August 18

Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal that there are three must-see moments for the week of August 18, 2025. Fans can expect Sarah Horton Kiriakis (Linsey Godfrey) to pressure Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd).

Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) reconnects with Belle Black (Martha Madison). Plus, the person who really shot EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) is revealed. Keep reading and let’s talk about what is coming up in the Peacock soap opera.

Sophia Choi Pressured

Let’s begin with Sophia, who will continue to go through intense guilt over her baby secret. The teenager really needs someone to talk to, but the only people who know the truth are Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) and Sarah.

There have been a few times when Sophia got close to blurting out the truth, but for now, her secret is still mostly intact.

There are signs that the truth is about to come out, though. For one thing, Amy Choi (Shi Ne Nielson) noticed a family resemblance with Tesoro. The woman also keeps urging Sophia to speak with a counselor. Midweek, Sarah will pressure Sophia to just tell the truth to everyone.

Brady Black’s Questioning

Sophia must not agree, because by Friday, Sarah is the one who gets grilled. Brady will have some questions for the good doctor. Could he begin to suspect that Sarah knows more than she lets on? Or maybe Sophia does confess, and Brady demands to know if Sarah knew the truth all along. She found out after-the-fact, but I could see how Brady would view that as a betrayal.

Philip Kiriakis Reconnects

Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal that another must-see moment features Philip and Belle. The two reconnect and Belle tells him everything that’s happened with EJ. That is when the man will tell his longtime friend and sometimes lover that she deserves better than EJ.

Rachel Black Exposed

During the week of August 18, expect EJ’s real shooter to finally be identified. Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) and EJ talk about the next steps. Later in the week, EJ issues an ultimatum to Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk). Later, she begs EJ for more time. Then, we have Marlena distracting Rachel.

Then, by Friday’s episode, Kristen screams in agony with her arms outstretched while being held back by a bailiff. So, it sounds like Rachel will end up being the one who shot EJ that fateful night. It would also explain why in a preview clip, EJ freaks out in front of Marlena about the lives he has negatively altered, so stay tuned!
