Days of our Lives gets deep into sweeps month with Leo's life on the line. According to spoilers from Corday Productions for November 16 to 20, 2026, it's Javi to the rescue, but is it too late? Plus, Xander finds himself in some deep water.
Good News and Bad

Things look bad for Leo (Greg Rikaart) as Javi (Jacob Martinez) works to save him. Thankfully, Javi's efforts work, but that doesn't mean EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) is not in trouble. Sydney (Sydney Malakeh) is also onto the counterfeit purse ring and confronts her father about her findings. Later in the week, EJ finds himself in hot water.
As for Johnny (Carson Boatman), his father's machinations have Chanel (Raven Bowens) wanting to leave town. Johnny opens up to Marlena (Deidre Hall) about all of this, but she is more concerned about Dominic (Kyle Pryor) for the moment.
Xander (Paul Telfer) and Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) have a hard time resisting one another next week as Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) tries to encourage Xander to give it another go. Even Marlena thinks Xander is being too cautious. But when he is arrested by the end of the week, it may be clear to Sarah why Xander had been trying to keep his distance.
