Serena on Days of Our LivesFacebook/ Days of Our Lives

Thursday on "Days of Our Lives," Eric told Nicole that Serena might know about their secret. Nicole thought that Serena didn't have anything on them. Eric saw her engagement ring and she told him that she and Daniel are engaged. Eric said that he's happy for her and added that he should have married her when he had the chance. Nicole told him that it's probably for the best since she's not his type anyway. They agreed to keep their secret and he went.

At the hospital, Serena said that Eric has a secret, but Brady didn't want to hear it and warned her to stay away from his brother. Elsewhere, Clyde requested for a tour of the hospital, and Anne flirted with him while they walked. He told her that he would like to donate to the prenatal care unit and said that his wife was pregnant with their son when she died in a car accident. He said he would like the money from his donation to go to people who can't afford to get an amniocentesis. 

In the park, Paige told Jenn that JJ has been spending time with a known drug dealer. Jenn was surprised at her concern and thanked her. Nearby, Kyle gave JJ some merchandise and told him to deliver it.

At home, JJ made a deal over the phone, not knowing that his mother was standing nearby. After he hung up, Jenn confronted him, and JJ told her that he was doing some undercover work and said that she had to keep quiet. Jenn said that she's proud of what he's doing but she's also scared. She knew that he's doing this for Paige's sake. 

In the square, Paige got a call from Kyle and Bev overheard her agreeing to go on a date with him. Bev confronted Paige and told her that she was doing this to make JJ jealous, and Paige fired back, telling Bev to keep JJ away from her mother. 

Here's what to expect on "Days of Our Lives" on Friday, July 24: Serena eavesdrops on Eric's confession; Brady and Xander have a confrontation; Chad decides to tell Abigail his true feelings; JJ and Paige share a charged moment.

"Days of Our Lives" airs Mondays to Fridays at 1 p.m. on NBC.
