It's a new week in Salem and there's lots of new drama to go with it. So what's happening on Days of our Lives this week? We have your Days of our Lives spoilers for the week of October 16 to October 20. 

Before we get to this week's spoilers, let's take a look back at what happened last week to get us where we are now. 

Rex and his mother are at odds over divorce news. Kate is happy about the divorce but a divorce is the last thing Rex wants. He won't lose his daughter, though Kate points out that Xander won't get out of his way on this. It's going to be a fight. 

Sarah, in the meantime, learned that Susan is alive and well, which changes Sarah's perspective on Xander because this means he's not a murderer. Xander and Sloan had a chat about the impending custody battle; he truly believes that Sarah had a chance to tell him about the baby's paternity but she also has a history of lying. 

We'll see more about Xander, Sarah and Sloan this week as they sort through the details and figure out how to work through this situation. Will Susan's presence change anything? Only time will tell.
