Days of our Lives finally takes it on the road this week as Belle, Chad, and EJ head to Italy and Gabi and Philip head to Monte Carlo. According to spoilers September 7 to 11, 2026, EJ's machinations are far-reaching everywhere.
Beyond Salem...

Belle (Martha Madison), Chad (Conner Floyd), and EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) make it to Italy in one piece, where EJ hopes to find out just what his brother and ex are up to with that chess set. Belle and Chad take their relationship to the next level this coming week, but that doesn't mean danger is not lurking. Later in the week, EJ gives Rita (Maggie Carney) a brand-new assignment, while someone mysterious ends up with Stefano's ring.
While EJ, Belle, and Chad are in Italy, Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) and Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) take things on the road to Monte Carlo, where they run into Sydney DiMera (Sydney Malakeh). What does she have to do with their little poker game they are playing with the sole goal of defeating Sydney's father?
Back in Salem, things heat up as Marlena (Deidre Hall) becomes suspicious of EJ and has another mystery memory. Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) also fears for EJ.
The Kiriakis clan prepares for their big move. Xander (Paul Telfer) and Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) reflect on what might have been, while refusing to admit that they are still in love with one another. Xander later opens up to Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) and tells her how emotional this has all been for him. And finally, Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) urges Stephanie (Abigail Klein) to fight for her marriage.
