In Salem, when one question is answered, more come into the fold. Many Salem citizens are still wondering how Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) escaped from Bayview, but some have an idea that he may have had some help. Spoilers for "Days of Our Lives" reveal that many will unite to get to the bottom of this mystery.

Over the coming episodes, Ben is not so willing to give out a lot of details regarding Will (Chandler Massey). Paul (Christopher Sean) will help Sonny (Freddie Smith) get some answers, but it is clear that they cannot do this alone.

Fortunately, many will be ready to help. Marlena (Deidre Hall), for one, will try to get some information out of Ben in a therapy session. Even though Ben will not explicitly reveal much, some clues will be found.

Hope (Kristian Alfonso) will grill Ben for information as well next week. She will be lucky enough to get a solid lead so they could find Will. Obviously, trying to find Will is not going to stop here. Sonny will have to turn to Kate (Lauren Koslow) for a favor. He will hope that she will be willing to do something a little unpleasant for her grandson's sake.

The favor in particular was confronting her ex, Clyde (James Read). He will be back in fake flashbacks this week, but the two of them will really meet in next week's episodes. Fans can expect quite a confrontation between the two. Clyde will take pleasure in taunting Kate with whatever secrets he is keeping.

Kate will have to stick it out when she meets Clyde, but she knows she is doing this for Will. Fortunately, she will get some information out of him, and after they meet, she will give everyone updates. It seems that what Clyde will tell Kate is something big, as Roman (Josh Taylor), John (Drake Hogestyn), and Marlena will all be shocked. Among the updates Clyde gave her, it might also have a clue about Will's location.

On the other side of Salem, it is not only Sonny and Paul's future together that is at stake. Spoilers indicate that Nicole (Arianne Zucker) and Eric's (Greg Vaughan) future is also on the line but for a different reason. Fans know that Nicole will be leaving Salem soon, but where does this leave Eric?

Fans have speculated on whether Nicole will leave Salem alone or if Eric decides to go with her. Spoilers have already revealed that the two will admit their feelings for each other, and the only step to take is to express their love in a physical way.

Unfortunately, Brady (Eric Martsolf) will find out that Nicole has also been lying to him. He will blow his top off and if he is overcome with anger, Brady could do the worst and expose Nicole as Deimos' (Vincent Irizarry) murderer.

There has been no mention regarding Eric leaving Salem, so it appears that Nicole will not leave with him. However, their romance may end in a big twist. There is a big possibility that she could get pregnant with his child. As everyone knows, Nicole has been having fertility issues, but unexpected things can happen. Yet, the catch to this is that Nicole will leave before Eric knows about it.

Fortunately, Nicole's exit leaves an opening for her to come back. So, in true soap opera fashion, Nicole will leave town, find out that she is pregnant, and raise the child herself with Holly. Years later, she will return to Salem with a big secret. If not Nicole, then a strange man will come to Salem, and that is where Eric will find out that he is a father.

"Days of Our Lives" airs Mondays to Fridays at 12 p.m. EDT on NBC.
