Rafe reacts to Jada's confession.
Jada did it. She finally told Rafe about sleeping with Shawn in the Tuesday, April 1 episode of Days of Our Lives. And Rafe reacted — well, not in a way we think Jada thought Rafe would react. Plus, the search for John Black continues.
Rafe Reacts
It was totally understandable that Rafe (Galen Gering) would react badly to the news that Jada (Elia Cantu) slept with Shawn (Brandon Beemer). That kind of news isn’t what you want to hear, especially weeks after it happened.
Having said all of that, however, we thought maybe Rafe would have some empathy for Jada’s experiences. He went through hell, for sure. But he wasn’t the only one whose life tanked.
So, hopefully, after he processes the news, he will be able to see the light, so to speak. Cheating on Rafe wasn’t something she would have done had it not been for a perfect storm of diabolical and insane circumstances. Yes, she should have told her fiance right away after he returned and regained his memories. Jada owned up to that, as she should have.

She did a good job of explaining how bad it was for her while he was gone, but not good enough, apparently. She tried to get Rafe to see her mindset, starting with the fact that she thought he destroyed her at the wedding. Humiliated in front of everyone, she then proceeded to lose her job. Plus, she found out that the man she thought was the love of her life cheated on her with a stripper exotic dancer. She racked her brain to figure out why Rafe wasn’t acting like himself.
Jada hasn’t lived in Salem all that long — she knows crazy stuff happens in this town, but did she know doppelgangers run rampant? Like really know? She certainly didn’t know that Rafe had a doppelganger years and years ago. He never shared that story. But he expected her to guess that an impostor had taken his place?
We’re going to have to let Rafe feel his feelings because he’s entitled to that, considering the disaster his life has been for the last few months. But hopefully, he won’t write off what’s easily the best relationship he has ever had. Maybe Jada needs to remind Rafe what she went through with her last husband. She would think DID or bipolar disorder before an impostor.

The Search Continues
In Estonia, the man shot at Orpheus’s facility wasn’t John (the late Drake Hogestyn). It was a scientist enlisted to help make the bomb. He was collateral damage. Whoever has the bomb also has John, and they are no longer at that warehouse. So Marlena (Deidre Hall), Steve (Stephen Nichols), and hopefully Paul (Christopher Sean) and Andrew (Colton Little) will continue the search for John.
And the only clue they have to go on is “Rosebud.” What is Rosebud other than the final thing that Charles Foster Kane said in the movie Citizen Kane? ISA will undoubtedly attempt to extract John’s location from Orpheus (George DelHoyo), who should be in custody. We’ll see if we get confirmation on that soon.
