The news that John (Drake Hogestyn) is waking up from his coma has been warmly received on Days of Our Lives-by everyone except one person in particular.

Theresa Fears The Truth About John's Coma Will Be Revealed

Theresa (Jen Lilley), who was responsible for John being in the coma in the first place, has been clinging to her secret for months, and has been extraordinarily scared by the possibility that John would not only wake up, but remember that his son, Brady (Eric Martsolff), wasn't the one who smacked him with a fireplace poker.

Now, after learning that the miracle drug Kristen (Eileen Davidson) procured is working slowly but surely to wake him up, Theresa will find herself driven to take extreme measure which will ensure the drug stops working, by heading to John's hospital room with an injection that could change everything. If she succeeds in mixing something else with the miracle drug, it could not only reverse the effects of the other one, but also kill John, taking her secret to the grave.

Kristen Learns Theresa's Secret

Meanwhile, Daniel (Shawn Christian) will head to Kristen's and plead with her about the situation, as they are the only other two people who know what Theresa did. Daniel has his own testy history with her, and feels she should be punished for the crime she committed-and thinks Brady should know the truth now, in case John doesn't remember when he wakes up. Kristen however, wants to use the information when it best suits her--but also wants to see if there's a chance John will wake up and remember on his own. If that were to happen, then she could win Brady back in a much more fair way than if she told him the truth herself.

Days of Our Lives airs Monday-Friday at 1 p.m. on NBC.
