Tensions have grown between the three of them for some time, and now, things will be set to explode completely between Chad, Abigail and Dario on the Thursday, July 27 episode of “Days of Our Lives.”

The tension over Abigail (Marci Miller) and Chad’s (Billy Miller) former marriage, and her current one with Dario (Jordi Villasousa) has been simmering for a while on the NBC soap, and now that Dario is trying to find a way to wiggle out of punishment for his crimes he’s committed, things have begun to truly boil over for them all.

Abigail learned of Dario’s crimes, which included stealing money from one of ’s companies, but was unable to turn her husband in because he threatened to show the police a photo of Chad where he appeared to be the one who committed Deimos’ (Vincent Irizarry) murder. Dario was still brought in anyway after the FBI got his hacker to flip on him, but he has since struck a deal that would get him Witness Protection if he turned in his secret partner. However, Abigail refused to leave town with him, and Dario has insisted to the police that she be given the protection as well, which could force her to go.

Dario threatened Abigail that he would still turn in the photo of Chad if she didn’t leave with him, but may also be setting her up for a situation where she can’t win no matter what she does. He know she will do whatever it takes to protect Chad, so he may also reveal that if she refuses to go with him, he will out Chad as his secret partner and let him take the fall for all his crimes. However, if she does agree to go with him, he’ll tell the truth.

When Abigail realizes she’s been cornered and has no way out, she will inform Chad she is leaving town, and he will be flabbergasted and stunned by her news. He will especially be concerned when she also reveals she may be leaving their son, Thomas, again, and this time, for good.

Because he knows something else is prompting Abigail to do this, Chad will begin to insist that she give him answers and tell him the truth about what is really going on. Afraid it will set him off if she tells him everything, Abigail may not give Chad specifics, but could reveal to him that she’s leaving because it’s the only way she can protect him. Her refusal to go into more detail however will force Chad to realize just what is holding her back, and he will know Dario is holding something over her head.

However, if and when he goes to confront Dario about what he is doing, it could prove to be a more dangerous situation than any of the three realized was possible, because the tension they all feel with one another isn’t the only thing that is threatening their safety and livelihoods.
