Manipulation has been the way several residents in Salem have been operating lately, but the master of it will finally return home on Days of Our Lives.

Brady Makes A Major Life Change

Kristen DiMera (Eileen Davidson) is back in town-and it won't take long before she's up to her old tricks. She left after her aborted wedding to Brady (Eric Martsolf), but now she's back and wants him-and she'll stop at nothing to get what she wants.

Kristen's return to town is a perfect time for her to emotionally manipulate Brady. He has been in an awful state of mind following his father John's (Drake Hogestyn) head injury-which he believes he caused. He is waiting to hear if his father will live or die-meaning it's the perfect time for Kristen to waltz in and toy with his emotions.

Nicole and Eric Grow Close Once Again

Her timing is actually quite perfect, as the man she drugged and had sex with before her wedding, Eric (Greg Vaughan) is desperately trying to get back into the church again. He was no longer allowed to serve as a priest after the tape of his having sex with Kristen was released, and now that he is no longer engaged to Nicole (Arianne Zucker), he could have a chance at convincing the bishop to let him back into the service.

Despite ending things with Nicole on bad terms, he has asked her for her help in getting him back to where he loves to be. Now, she will inform him of her decision-her help could put her back into his good graces and help repair their fractured relationship, but it comes at the cost of knowing they can never be together again if he winds up returning to the church. No matter her decision, she risks never having Eric back in her life again.

Days of Our Lives airs Monday-Friday at 1 p.m. on NBC.
