The revelation today that the new Abigail on “Days of Our Lives” is not only an imposter but also collaborating with Dr. Mark Greene, who altered the DNA tests, has taken the show into uncharted territory. What’s their agenda? What’s their connection? What’s their ultimate objective? And perhaps most pressing, is the real Abigail still alive somewhere?
This twist may have set the stage for a major revelation.
Perhaps Clyde was being truthful, but he wasn’t referring to this woman. Maybe she and Mark saw an opportunity to infiltrate the DiMera household and make some money. Holly and Tate recently mentioned that Mark had to care for Felicity and Aaron after their parents passed away.
Perhaps, as a doctor, he’s facing financial difficulties and saw this as a chance to provide for his family.
Or, they could both be working for Clyde, either willingly or under compulsion. After all, he provided Chad with the video evidence that led him to “Abigail.”
Regardless of why the fake Abigail was introduced to the DiMera mansion, the real Abigail could still be out there, alive, and poised to return, potentially reprising her role by Marci Miller! Why do we suspect this? Kate Mansi, who previously played Abigail, is currently busy on “General Hospital,” and both Chad and the fake Abigail keep looking at a photo of the couple together during Miller’s tenure.
The photo has been so conspicuously featured that it’s hard to ignore its potential significance. Now that we know AnnaLynne McCord isn’t Abigail, the show seems to be hinting at the return of the genuine article, once again portrayed by Miller.
That’s right: No amnesia. No plastic surgery. Maybe Clyde’s still got her captive somewhere while he plays out whatever twisted plan he’s cooked up with Mark and the fake Abigail. We can’t say for certain just yet, but don’t be surprised if, by the end of this story, Miller’s Abigail is back home once again, and all is right in the world of Salem.
Well, as right as things ever get in that town.
