Is someone going to die on “Days of Our Lives” this week? From the return of Aiden, to a nasty case of the flu, things aren’t looking so hot in Salem.

The NBC soap opera concluded last week with some serious jaw dropping moments. Summer (Marie Wilson) accidentally killed a man from her past, and turned to Dario (Jordi Vilasuso) for help in cleaning up the mess. But that wasn’t the only thing she needed Dario for. She also told Brady (Eric Martsolf) that she’s dating him. That doesn’t change how Theresa (Jen Lilley) feels about Summer, though. She did some investigating and found out that Maggie’s (Suzanne Rogers) supposed long lost daughter is actually a woman by the name of Cindy Calahan. Unfortunately for Theresa, Brady didn’t believe that Summer could have stole someone’s identity.

Elsewhere, Gabi’s (Camila Banus) daughter got admitted to the hospital for a bad case of the flu. And while there, it was revealed that Gabi was also burning up from a fever.

Meanwhile, things were heating up between Rafe (Galen Gering) and Hope (Kristian Alfonso). However, an early night resulted in Hope returning home to find her dead ex-husband Aiden (Daniel Cosgrove) in her house.

So, what will happen this week on “Days of Our Lives”?

Monday, May 9 will immediately address Aiden’s return. Although fans thought that Bo (Peter Reckell) killed him, Aiden will explain exactly what happened over the past few months. Based on a promo video it sounds like he’ll try to blame his actions to kill Hope on someone else, but Hope won’t fall for him again. She’ll arrest him and take him in.

Tuesday’s installment will find Hope frazzled as Aiden refuses to talk to anyone but her. And things won’t be going any better for her daughter, Ciara (Vivian Jovanni). She’s confused about her feelings for Theo (Kyler Pettis), and will turn to Claire (Olivia Rose Keegan) for help. Meanwhile, Steve (Stephen Nichols) will go out looking for Joey (James Lastovic), but Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) will be occupied at the hospital. More patients with the flu-like virus will be admitted.

The virus will claim its first life on Wednesday, May 11. The episode will also find Aiden trying to “convince Hope the man who tried to kill her was an imposter.” But is Aiden telling the truth? And will Hope believe him? It’s unclear right now, but Hope will come clean to Ciara about the return of Aiden.

Thursday will take a dramatic turn as Kayla starts to feel symptoms of the virus. Meanwhile, her estranged husband will be hot on Joey and Jade’s (Paige Searcy) trail as they make it to a commune run by Jade’s Aunt Simone. Elsewhere, Chad (Billy Flynn) will bring family to see Abigail (Kate Mansi), however, that’s the last thing that Abigail wants.

The week will end with Chad heartbroken after Abigail tells him not to visit anymore. Rafe might also be torn as he’s forced to question Hope about her feelings for Aiden.
