Fans of ‘Days of Our Lives’ can look forward to plenty of drama after Xander, Orpheus and Clyde made their escape from prison and have planned to carry out revenge. As they go back to Salem, it is speculated that someone will meet his death in future episodes.

When the trio of escaped convicts arrive in Salem to put their plans of vengeance into action, they reach Brady and Theresa’s wedding ceremony and possibly attempt to kill off a well-loved character during this scene.

Xander pointed out that he looks forward to having revenge on Theresa and Nicole Walker as they were the ones responsible for putting him to jail.

As for Clyde, he has placed his sights on former girlfriend Kate Roberts.

Taking the name Milo Harp, Orpheus has several names on his kill list, including Roman Brady, Marlena Evans and John Black.

‘Days of Our Lives’ fans have shown concern over the possible circumstances that their beloved characters will face, especially with the fact that many of them will be attending Brady and Theresa’s wedding where the escaped felons will carry out their foul plans.

It has previously been reported that actress Jen Lilley, who takes on the role of Theresa, has already announced that she will be saying goodbye to the soap opera. As such, viewers have come to speculate that the character will die anytime soon due to Xander’s evil doing.

Recently, the ‘Days of Our Lives’ trailer showed Theresa being strangled by Xander with his plan of ending her life. Nonetheless, fans continue to hope that her fiancee Brady will come to the scene and save her before Xander succeeds with his scheme.

Jamey Giddens of Daytime Confidential was the first to announce Lilley’s plans of exiting the series.

“I thought it was strange when Lilley’s name was the first I heard mentioned, once I started snooping into who would replace Kirsten Storms at General Hospital,” Giddens said, adding: “I couldn’t imagine Lilley leaving a full-time gig at DAYS for another temp assignment at GH. As it turns out, Lilley gave her notice to DAYS a while back. In the end, her former DAYS castmate [sic] Molly Burnett was cast as Maxie. It’s just as well. I hear Lilley wants a break from the daily suds grind.”

Meanwhile, as Clyde plans to have revenge on Kate Roberts, his confrontation will draw Chad DiMera to realize that Kate is facing great danger. As such, Clyde might kill Chad in the end.

For Orpheus, he is expected to arrive at the Kiriakis mansion and make an attack on Victor but John Black will try to save the day, bringing on unlucky circumstances.

Aside from the escaped convicts, other storylines that will come into play include Kayla, Hope, Aiden and Belle. Rekindling the romance between them, Belle and Shawn make the decision to travel and move to China while their daughter Claire is left behind as she goes to college.
