Days of our Lives Spoilers October 26: Sarah Fights to Save Xander

Saving Xander

Xander (Paul Telfer) may have brought a gun to the lab to protect him and Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) from George (Michael Rose), but George also brought a gun and shot Xander. Sarah is a mess as she scrambles to save the man she loves. At least George is also down, but he is not Sarah's focus.

Johnny (Carson Boatman) and Steve (Stephen Nichols) did their due diligence and alerted the police to the danger, especially when Sarah and Xander (Paul Telfer) took way too long to retrieve that laptop. While Sarah uses her medical emergency skills to save Xander, will she get him to the hospital?

Spoilers say that Leo (Greg Rikaart) and Javi (Al Calderon) share an emotional moment. Is he the one who is called in to help Sarah and Xander?

This could be the moment of truth for Sarah as she realizes how much she still loves and wants Xander. He has proven himself to her over and over again, so maybe it's time she forgets about this whole Brady (Eric Martsolf) idea and focuses on where she truly belongs. Besides, Xander took a bullet for her, so that should be all the persuasion she needs.

Marlena's Bunch

Marlena (Deidre Hall) is constantly feeling down, so will some time with Sydney (Sydney Malekah) help? Teasers say that Sydney reaches out to her grandmother. Is it just for a casual chat or does she have something specific that she wants to discuss? Sydney is not quite sure what to make of her father or her mother's fiancé, so maybe Marlena could help.

Brady also gets some devastating news on Monday. Can Marlena be there to help? And what is this news? Did something more go wrong with Rachel's (Lorelei Mote) health or is it the news about Xander being shot while trying to save Sarah? Maybe this news has to do with Kristen (Stacy Haiduk), who is always causing chaos.

Is it time that Sarah finally admits her feelings for Xander? Sound off in the comments.
