James (Anthony Herrera) has returned to wreak more havoc, in his own inimitable way.

Never a dull moment in Oakdale -- especially when Damian Grimaldi is around. And we mustn't forget Henry's mother Audrey, whom our dear, sweet Mr. Coleman thought was a serial killer. So ... what's on tap for the coming week in Oakdale? Can someone say "evildoer James Stenbeck"? We think we just did! Read on for more ...

So, Audrey is clearly up to something, right? And we also know that Paul is having all those memory issues. And we also ALSO know that Anthony Herrera returns this week as Paul's presumed-dead father James. How do these all connect? How about: Audrey and James had a baby together  -- a tot named Henry! Yes, Paul and Henry are half-brothers. Oy vey!

Meanwhile, Holden -- no doubt still reeling from Luke's choice to go on a work trip with Damian rather than a father/son bonding trip -- picks up a mysterious man dressed as a cop while driving to Kentucky. Stranger danger! Holden, didn't anyone ever tell you not to pick up hitchhikers? They are almost ALWAYS trouble ... especially in daytime.

All this, PLUS: The Hughes family keeps suffering blow after blow -- and they're beginning to believe Alison is the person to blame. And it goes from bad to worse; Alison confronts Kim about her husband Bob's memory loss ... and Kim collapses! Once at the hospital, Bob struggles with giving Kim the care she needs. OMG, a Kim story?! AT LAST!

What are you most looking forward to next week?
