It looks like the next lead in the search for Days of Our Lives‘ John is going to take Steve and Marlena to Minsk. Yes, they seem to be willing to let the ISA take over at this point, but we can’t see them actually abandoning the search without finding John. The duo got this next big lead on Thursday’s episode after grilling Orpheus for information. Not that he was much help… Or was he?
Steve and Marlena thought they could appeal to Orpheus’ humanity by claiming the nuclear device he was working on would harm not just strangers, but his kids and grandchildren. It had seemed to work, with Orpheus agreeing to give them the info they wanted, while asking an extra favor of Marlena to help his son, Christian, in his custody fight to see his kid.
Christian terrorized Ciara, too, since she was determined to prove he killed Jordan, instead of Ben.

It’s not entirely clear which kid, though. Christian Maddox (who went by the alias Evan Frears for a time in Salem) actually has two sons — David, with the late Jordan Ridgeway, whom he murdered, which ended up getting him tossed into jail — and Shawn Christian, with Jan Spears. In fact, the last we saw of Christian back in 2022, Jan pushed him into the water at the Salem docks, swiped their son and ran off. Her attempts to pass the baby off as Shawn’s failed, but she wasn’t about to let Evan/Christian have him.
