DAYS Video Spoilers September 14 to 18: Philip Puts on His Poker Face, Rita Goes Rogue (Again)

Days of our Lives is full of mystery and intrigue this week, as the poker game in Monte Carlo gets underway. According to the latest spoilers video for September 14 to 18, 2026, Philip braces himself for what happens next, Belle and Chad find another clue, and Marlena's fears are alive in Salem.

In Monte Carlo...

Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) and Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) are all in when they sit down with Dante Vitali (Franco Lo Presti), Sydney DiMera (Sydney Malakeh), and others for a friendly game of poker with a huge multi-million-dollar pot. Philip is shaking and sweating because he has gambled all of Gabi's money, which is a DiMera inheritance, on this game.

If he wins, he may not be able to save the mansion since the paperwork has already been signed, but they may be able to save his father's company and buy another estate one day.

Belle (Martha Madison) and Chad (Conner Floyd) think they have found exactly what they are looking for when they locate another key that opens another part of the chess set box. They are thrilled with their find and can't wait to take it home to Marlena and show her.

But how do Chad and Belle get this clue and how will they keep it from EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel), who has tagged along on their trip? Sydney will find him by Thursday, but for now, he has Rita on high alert, not knowing Rita is not really working for him at all.

Back in Salem...

Things get complicated back in Salem when Sydney decides to return to her hometown with EJ after so many years jet-setting through Europe. Rita (Maggie Carney) is thrilled to welcome both EJ and Sydney home, as she feigns being EJ's loyal assistant.

However, Rita seems to have gone rogue and is working on her own. She appears to be following Stefano's orders from the grave and tells his portrait that everything is going according to his plan.

As for Marlena (Deidre Hall), she is alarmed when she hears where Belle found her clue. The name Marino, as in Dominic Marino, means "of the sea," as does the name DiMera...

What are your thoughts on Sydney DiMera? Is Philip about to lose it all? Sound off in the comments.
