Who Shoots Stefano DiMera on Days of Our Lives?

Knowing MarDar and their cowardice, I think the shooter is none of the usual suspects. It could be Cameron or Celeste. Unless the character who shoots Stefano is in for a bit of a rest, it has to be one of lesser importance to storylines.

I chose Abe. I've not been watching the show very long, but it seems that with Lexie dying off, there won't be much for him to do once she's gone.

I doubt if it's one of the other characters listed since most are main characters, although Rafe would be a good possibility.

Several have been fired from the show...maybe it's one of them.

Caroline.

They could be really tricky and make it Lexie.

my money is on Theo.

@everyone: Since it has not been announced that Joe Moscolo is leaving the bigger question is...is he really dead?

But at this point I see Abe being charged with the murder as it would give him something to do.

maybe Joe Mascolo is taking his regular summer break?

kind of like how Tony Geary takes a break from GH for a couple of months and other stars do the same thing??

Lexie or Celeste.

I wonder with Lexie dying, if Stefano with frame Abe for the murder so HE can raise Theo to be a true future DiMeria.

I am going with Celeste.

(all I know is that it better not be Will! He can't keep shootin' ppl, lol)

I'm not even gonna vote. I'm sorry but this is such a stupid storyline! And he's not gonna die anyway!! DAYS does not need this kind of nonsense. It needs something concrete and strong to stay alive.

Soaps have far too many 'whodunit' -stories as it is! There is should be one whodunit per five years at the most.

If Stefano is setting someone up,he could be using agent Harmon.Ana I agree with Miry,it better not be Will.He already has so many people blackmailing him.

I think the shooter will either be Lexie or Celeste.

Lexie, only because it's the perfect crime, she's dying and will be found guilty only after she dies. Celeste, because she's no longer needed, she shoots Stefano after she discovers he caused the tumor in the first place.

Probably faux Celeste, because Tanya Boyd is probably never coming back and this new one never needs to come back.

I think its Bo. His contract negotiations aren't going well and going on the run or to jail would take him off the canvas while leaving the door open to a return.

@ChrisGa: i'm glad they don't give her many lines. I wish the real Celeste would return in time for Lexie's end. Because of all the flashbacks you need to do with the family and all.

And hey, where's Brandon? Did anyone think to call Matt Cendeo to have him come back? He and Lexie were thick as thieves when she was Alexandra Dimera. Even to the point where he "beat it up" one time. He "put it on her" one time! Now he needs to be at the funereal as does Jonah and Tek.

The story will be dragged out for so long that when they do reveal the KILLER we will have forgotten all about it and not cared anymore.

Or it will be a character brought on just for the hell of it.

I'm telling you. The reveal of who the killer will be IS GOING TO BE weak, at best.

it will probably be agent hammond!!!

The fact that Will picks up a gun solely based on what he has said that Stefano has done to him... and not to have mentioned what he has done to his grandmother... proves to me that this character needs counseling and not becuase he is gay because he has a tremendous amount of built up frustration inside him.

Plus, he is the one character that I wished they did not add into this MURDER MYSTERY. Seriously, why couldn't they just let this kid deal with coming out, allow him to play his scenes with his mother, father and family without tagging on this WHEN WILL THE PHOENIX RISE AGAIN part?!

Days has NEVER EVER in the past 2 decades done a murder mystery (any soap for that matter) where when it was revealed the audience was like "Oh wow, I did not see that coming". We may have been surprised but the writers in those cases always just added in story to make it 'sell'.

Look at the Diane Jenkin's murder on Y&R. There were about 8-9 suspects who all had interaction with Diane in the park on the same night and not ONE of them ran into the other. PLus, the show had the victim send out a MASS text message basically saying the same thing "meet me in the park now" kind of message. SOme of the recipients were together "Tucker and Ashley" "Nick and Phyllis" when the message was received YET they arrived att he park, had their altercations with Diane and left the park without seeing one another. Then by the time it was revealed who did it, it made no sense how Nikki got from Arizona where her rehab center was located, to Genoa City, to the park to pummel Diane to death and no one saw it happening?! Plus, the park is across the street from Jack's so you're telling me that NO ONE was out walking their dog, jogging or enjoying the warm summer evening?

Plus it went on for months and months and then the reveal fell flat on the floor.

If Days wants to do this mystery justice, it better make it only last tops 3 months and not put someone else on trial for the murder only to have it revealed at the very last second. We've all seen this before and it's like hearing the same joke over and over again, after a while it's NO LONGER FUNNY.

I'll have to go with Rafe right now because there is no one else expendable in the cast right now other than Rafe. He has no true romantic connections with anyone, Carrie has been fired so his SUDDEN I AM DEEPLY IN LOVE WITH YOU STORY isn't going to have wings, and hopefully when he is revealed to be the killer then Gaby will run out of town because she is embarassed.

As for Agent Hammond, I never thought of him but my biggest gripe about how they are showing him die is that whomever shoots him they have the character do it cowardly while he is sitting with his back to the killer. This is a character that has ruined countless lives in his duration on the show. And the majority of the "suspects" excluding Will, have had interactions with Stefano that would garner a more IN YOUR FACE "who did this and this and that and that and now I'm going to give you this" scene than lurking in the background.

It sort of reminds me of WHO KILLED ADAM/Stuart on AMC where you see the suspect holding the gun and it's not even aimed directly at the victim and then the shot and the victim is dead. The hilarity of that whodunit was the amount of people who were able to get onto an estate that has a team of guards and all escape before being discovered.

It looks like from the promo, days just rewrote that script and just changed all the names.

Sort of SPOILER ALERT-I read Abe drops his gun,so it could be anyone,like Celeste,but Abe gets the blame.The only problem I have with Celeste or Abe doing it,is that Lexie is still alive,and would they do that do her.

Let us just hope that the ending is written,and they are not making it up as they go along.That they are waiting to see if Joe wants to come back,or whoever else could be leaving the show.To me it seems that Y&R kept changing their minds with the Diane murder.

i think Lexie will do it out of love for all her friends. she knows it needs to be done, and if she does it, all of her friends and family can finally know peace of mind.

The masseuse did it.........

I just turned on that TV Channel BOUNCE and Joseph Mascolo's character took a pretty comprehensive thrashing from SHAFT. He looks exactly the same, except younger and leaner...and sporting an even bigger pompadour!

The mystery won't last long, I don't think. The new writers' work starts airing in August.

The new writers start airing July 23rd actually. The week before the olympics start but I think the begging of Juky was when Tomlin started tweaking things.

Could be anyone, I would bet Lexie or Celeste!! Plus like SoapArmageddon and Appleridge said, the new regime begins right before the Olympics, so it will not last long at all.

I agree with everyone else's comments: it won't be any of the underlined suspects. It's gonna be one of Lexie, Celeste or Ian.

Oh this one is way too easy to figure out. It's Ian Mcallister. Don't you notice there hasn't been one single scene yet between Stefano and Ian Mcallister. It's obvious that the Days of our Lives writers are trying to push Ian to become the new super villian. I am also willing to bet, he was the one who was also responsible for the bombing of the safe house. He's currently drugging up Brady, so what else would he be capable of. Ian VS Stefano would make a great story line for Days and it's obvious it's what they are trying to do. I am also predicting that Ian is EJ's biological father or set it up to appear that Stefano is not EJ's father, but he really is, just to put hurt to him. We will see how it plays out, but I bet Ian is behind everything.

I hope it turns out to be Dave.

I think the shooter will be Ian!
