'Days of Our Lives' spoilers, recap: Hope stops Abigail from making a mistake

Thursday on "Days of Our Lives," Kyle confronted JJ and asked him why he needed to know who Paige spends her time with. Paige arrived and told JJ to get out of her life and stay out of her business. She told Kyle that JJ is her ex-boyfriend and he lies. Kyle touched Paige's face and told her that he'd see her later. 

After he left, JJ told Paige that Kyle is a bad guy, and Paige told him to get out of her life. JJ said that for someone so smart, she's being awfully stupid, and Paige slapped him. JJ told her that he knows they're not getting back together, but Kyle is not a good guy. Paige told him he's right, they will never get back together.

"Say hi to my mom for me," she taunted him. 

At Daniel's place, Hope found an engagement ring. Daniel told her that he's proposing to Nicole once she's settled in. Hope said she's happy for him. 

At the park, Serena stayed out of sight as Nicole asked Eric if he wouldn't tell anyone about what happened between them. He told her that he wouldn't hurt her and left. Serena emerged and Nicole warned her to stay away from her. Serena said that threatening her at the moment was not a good idea. 

In the square, Eve watched to see if Jennifer would drink the beverage that she put drugs in. Jenn tasted the drink, made a face, and returned it to the vendor. 

Aiden arrived at the park and Nicole told him that she wants to sue Serena and Xander. Aiden told her not to talk if she wants to win, and Serena and Nicole resumed arguing. Nicole said that she would write a story about the blood diamonds and how Serena dealt with warlords who teach children how to kill. 

JJ told Jenn that Paige is spending time with some bad people, and Jenn told him to leave her alone. 

Here's what to expect on "Days of Our Lives" on Friday, July 17: Chad finds out exactly why Stefano wants him with Abigail; Clyde learns an important secret; Hope stops Abigail from making a mistake; Adrienne and Justin reminisce about their relationship. 

"Days of Our Lives" airs Mondays to Fridays at 1 p.m. on NBC.
