For the Friday, March 29 episode of Days of our Lives, spoilers make viewers think that Holly may have run out of excuses to make herself look good and might actually tell the truth for a change.

Father Figure

So far, Holly (Ashley Puzemis) has lied to her mother, her stepfather, and Tate’s (Jamie Martin Mann) parents. But then there’s Eric (Greg Vaughan). He was her stepfather for a while (hard to tell for how many years, since she skipped straight from elementary to high school), and she was always good at manipulating him.

So if Holly is going to make a confession to anyone, why not a former priest with a soft spot for her big, innocent eyes? Holly has something to tell Eric. He wouldn’t get her in trouble, now would he?

Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble

Meanwhile, Sloan (Jessica Serfaty), Melinda (Tina Huang), and Leo (Greg Rikaart) make a pact to keep their secret. After all, baby Jude is happy enough with Sloan and Eric. Why rock the boat? Or, you know, risk prison?

What do you think? Post a comment!

Sure, Sloan is a terrific lawyer, Melinda is a mediocre one, and Leo seems to have some weird, mystical skill for not being punished whenever he breaks the law. But why risk it? If they don’t blab, nobody ever has to know…right?

Mom’s the Word

But just in case Holly decides to keep lying — for Nicole’s (Arianne Zucker) mental health, of course, there is no other reason — Theresa (Emily O’Brien) is taking matters into her own hands. She needs Tate to tell her everything so that she can use that information to get him out.

Of course, if the stupid boy keeps breaking out on his and digging a deeper hole for himself, the task becomes harder and harder. But considering that is exactly how Theresa lives her life, at least she has experience with self-destructive behavior — and how to make excuses for it.
