Plus, it looks like something might be ailing Marlena and Sophia’s newborn baby. Here’s your DAYS video preview for the week of July 7-11, 2025.
Taking Care of Business
Tony (Thaao Penghlis) and EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) discuss the family business, specifically, its takeover by the Kiriakis clan. “What is vital is that we get DiMera back,” Tony tells EJ.
It looks like EJ is already calculating a plan. “Well, there is one option,” he responds to his brother. “Johnny (Carson Boatman).” Remember, Johnny has recently gone to work for Xander (Paul Telfer) at the newly formed Titan-DiMera.
She’s Back
Chad (Billy Flynn) arrives home at the Horton house with a familiar face in tow, Gwen (Emily O’Brien). “Surprise,” coos Gwen with a smile as she greets a stunned and not-too-happy Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes). “Happy Independence Day,” adds Gwen.

Something’s Off
Marlena (Deidre Hall) appears unsteady on her feet when she stands up from the couch. “I’m fine,” she assures a concerned Belle (Martha Madison). But is she… really? Belle isn’t so sure. “Is there something you’re not telling me,” she asks her mother.
Meanwhile, across town, Leo (Greg Rikaart) can’t seem to soothe baby “Tesoro” no matter how hard he tries. Ari (Marissa Ramirez) covers her ears as the infant cries. “Just give him to me,” says Gabi (Cherie Jimenez), reaching out for the child. “I’m worried something’s really wrong with him,” retorts Leo.
