What difference does it make? Since this is Days and nobody stays dead, it doesn't really matter. Stephano will be back by Labor Day, he'll declare a vendetta against his shooter, and that story will fizzle out by Halloween.

thats exactly what i thought when i saw the promo none of them did it LEXIE did it as her finale goodbye to her friends.

I beleive no one in the promo shoots Stefano ? Lexie will findout hes the case of her future death and ultimatly be his demize ... but as always helll rise from it THE PHEONIX

Oh, my money is on Lexie, she over hears Abe blasting Stefano because he has the proof that Lexie's tumor was caused by toxic fumes in the tunnel where Andre held her captive for 6 months, and Stefano pretty much created a monster with Andre so Abe blames him, I would too!! Lexie is so distraught, over this she loses it. And, she has nothing to lose by offing Stefano, causes she is about to die!
However if I was one of the writers I'd have John take him out, he deserves to end Stefano!!

After today's episode,I totally could see it being Lexie.If she finds the gun,after hearing what Stefano did to her also,she would have more than enough motive,plus her anger would be out of control.And her tumour could make her do something she wouldn't normally do.

Then if she passes out or becomes too weak to confess,someone else could be blamed.It could be interesting if the writers invest some thought into it.

We're not sure if Stefano dies first off, since it doesn't say he's leaving. A couple of things, it does make sense Celeste (since she's probably not on regular contract and would serve no purpose once Lexie dies unless they want to pair her up with Abe which is doubtful - I mean if they can get rid of Jack and Jen then getting rid of Celeste is a no brainer) or Lexie (since she's so upset, but she wants peace; however, now that she sees that her life with her family is being taken away, she may decided to pull the trigger so he can't hurt anyone else).

He could set it up so that he wants someone to take him out and not know when that person is coming. He might order his own hit. And yet, he might survive and wind up in the hospital. Maybe everyone else shows up right after this person shoots him and he is saved. Maybe he has already shot himself and the person who comes to shoot him thinks he is killing him when stefano has already put the bullet in himself...

I'm going to guess Bo, only because he is actually leaving the show.

So clearly Lexie...

My first thought was Lexie since she is already on her way out. That way he could keep his promise to not hurt the people she cares about after she is gone. But i changed my mind after hearing that Ian is leaving the show. I'm guessing its gonna be his last gift to the woman he loves, Kate.
Which is fine with me cause he is creepy.

I definitely think Lexie. Thinking it is the only way to protect those she loves, and will allow EJ to be the Demira heir.

Wait... What storyline does Rafe have left? Not much! Maybe Rafe?
Why else would they swing Nicole's storyline in the direction of Daniel, unless maybe Rafe is leaving??????

Funny how all the main suspects touched the gun except the shooter,who wore gloves.So I think you can rule out everyone who did touch it.That leaves Lexie,Ian,Rafe,Sami and Lucas.But what about Will's gun that is missing?I do hope they do this story right and do not drag it out too long.

Oh totally Lexie- Shooter's hand was shaking...

My guess is Lexi, she is the only one with nothing to lose.

I believe it's either Ian or Lexie although my reservations are with Lexie as she seemed honestly weak and distraught today.

And... he/she checked for a carotid pulse with 2 fingers after shooting... So shooter had to have medical knowledge. Meaning Lexie! She did say she's been having "dreams" about her father, waking up sad. She's leaving the show anyway. She can make a last minute deathbed confession after the wrong person is charged and the cast doesn't lose any more central characters while solving the crime.

Then again, could be the CIA extracting him after he did so much damage and he comes back months later a changed man.

I think its Carrie

I think Lexie did it because she's dying any how. She heard her dad and husband talking about them chemicals, that's taking her life. It's never the person you think it is, Abe wouldn't be stupid enough to leave his gun. I think Lexie did it and took her husband's gun and left it there without thinking.

I think it was Lexie.

I think it's Ian; he just seemed the least affected--to the point of showing literally no emotion one way or the other--by the whole thing once word got out. Plus, he's not one of the primary suspects and we all know in soaps the killer is always NOT ONE OF THE PRIMARY SUSPECTS(which would also leave room for Lexie and Celeste I suppose).

Stefino is not dead he's in witness pertection.

Wow...I knew deep down there's no way they'd kill him off but that theory never crossed my mind. Got to be what it is.

My choice was someone else. My first thought was Ian simply because he is leaving but then I thought that since Stefano is supposed to be coming back, I think he is currently in the CIA Protection Program. Remember good old Steffie double crossed the arms dealers during the Arms trade bust and since there were many Salemites gunning for him, a hit man waited his turn and shot him.

I think Ian did it, and is trying to set up EJ

Ian is definitely the prime suspect now in shooting,not killing,Stefano.And now that he kidnaped EJ,you can be pretty sure Stefano is behind those curtains on the promo.Also,makes me wonder if Ian changed the DNA results at the police station.He must have a mole there.
