'Days of Our Lives' Promo: EJ’s Plan Takes Shape

This week on Days of Our Lives, Stephanie Johnson’s (Abigail Klein) kidnapping intensifies as Owen Kent (Wes Ramsey) continues to hold her captive, while E.J’s (Dan Feuerriegel) latest plan moves forward, according to a newly released weekly promo.

The promo for the week of March 2 through 6, 2026 was released on the show’s official YouTube channel.

The promo opened up with Stephanie’s kidnapping as Jeremy Horton (Michael Roark) attempts to help her escape, telling her, “I just want you to get out of here,”

Their escape attempt is interrupted when Owen appears and says, “Too late for that.”

Stephanie identifies her kidnapper, and we hear his voice share, “I love you, Stephanie, but you’ve been unfaithful to me.”

In Horton Town Square, Maggie Kirakis (Suzanne Rogers) ask her daughter Sarah Kirakis “You don’t think that…” And Sarah finishes her sentence saying, “That she’s using again?”

In Bayview Melinda Trask ask Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) “What do you want?”

Rachel explains she wants just one small favor as she holds a package that needs to be delivered to Rachel Black, presumably with medication that she switched out for vitamins in order to continue tormenting her former best friend Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis).

Paulina Carver (Jackée Harry) is shown in an office saying, “I know that you’re up to something or hiding something, EJ, and I’m going to find out what it is.”

Meanwhile in the lab hidden in the Dr. Tom Horton Free Clinic, E.J., Gwen (Emily O’Brien) and Rolf stand over the pod, as Gwen shares, “This is going to turn so many lives upside down.

E.J. responds, “But in the most wonderful way possible.
