Days of our Lives comings and goings report Kate Roberts returns to the canvas. Plus, rival Vivian Alamain’s homecoming is right around the corner. And when will Philip Kiriakis finally go home to Salem on the Peacock exclusive?

DOOL fans gave a little squeal and shouted, “I knew it!” when Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) was not actually shot.

Her husband, Roman Brady (Josh Taylor), Andrew Donovan (Colton Little), Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols), and Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans), saw the POV footage from the chip taken from Bo Brady‘s (Peter Reckell) brain.

She wasn’t killed after all. Then, later on, in Days of Our Lives, we get a glimpse of Kate chopping up fish heads. It’s deja vu.

She stinted on a fishing boat 27 years ago on the sudser. Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel)  held her captive then. But how did Kate get on this seafaring vessel recently? Did she flag down the boat, hoping to get back to Salem?

Comings and goings report more on Kate Roberts. She has a mean captor, Mauricio (Ramon Fernandez). He may or may not help her. But it will cost Kate. DOOL spoilers spill she trades her diamond wedding band for a phone call.

However, the call doesn’t go through. Yet, Kate Roberts is determined to return to Roman and her kids no matter what it takes. Watch for her story to unfold this week.

DOOL Comings and Goings: When Will Vivian Alamain Return?

Days of our Lives comings and goings have hinted at Vivian Alamain’s return for months. Further, the role is reprised by fan-favorite Louise Sorel.

With Kate’s new predicament, long-time viewers wonder if the woman has a hand in the captivity as she did decades ago. DOOL spoilers spill that Viv comes to Salem with success on her mind.

She’s ready to retake her place by her son Stefan DiMera‘s (Brandon Barash) side. But what will she say about his rekindling with his ex-wife, Gabi Hernandez (Camila Banus)?

The couple competes for complete control over DiMera Enterprises. Watch for Ms. Alamain’s return on the sudser soon. Will she bring her faithful man-servant Ivan (Ivan G’Vera) with her to Salem?

Does she have anything to do with Kate’s fate right now? It’s only a matter of time before she returns to the scene to check in with Stefan.

Days of our Lives Comings and Goings: Philip Kiriakis, Where are You?

DOOL comings and goings divulge Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson) may return home, but when? Even when Kate was “dead,” we only heard about the character from his brothers.

Rex Brady (Kyle Lowder) and Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo) wanted him to know about their mother. He’s getting psychiatric treatment after he went off the deep end last year.

@DaysPeacock Hey writers it be wonderful to see Jay Kenneth Johnson back on day of our lives because it be interesting to see Kate and Philip take over and be CO-CEO of Titan Industries/Dimera Enterprises.

But now, with things in upheaval at Titan Industries, will he want to try his hand working for his father’s company again? Plus, he may want to try to make amends with Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin).

However, fans wonder if he met with his former co-conspirator Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun) inside the mental institution. Days of our Lives watchers await his eventual arrival.

First, watch for his mother, Kate’s drama on the fishing boat with her nasty captor Mauricio. Is Vivian behind this captivity too? Watch DOOL as the stories unwind and entwine.
