DOOL OCTOBER 30: WILL AARON GREENE FINALLY ADMIT HE’S BABY TESORO’S REAL FATHER?

TL;DR: On October 30’s Days of Our Lives, Aaron Greene confides in his sister Cat Greene about the very real possibility that he’s the biological father of Sophia Choi’s abandoned baby Tesoro after Leo Stark confronts him with the accusation, forcing the terrified teen to face the consequences of his spontaneous hookup with Sophia months earlier.

The paternity bomb that’s been ticking since graduation day is about to explode!

After weeks of mounting tension and suspicious glances, Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo) finally breaks down and confesses his worst nightmare to his sister Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) on the October 30 episode of Days of Our Lives. And trust me—this conversation is going to change EVERYTHING for the Greene family.

What Does Leo Stark Accuse Aaron Greene Of?

Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) directly accuses Aaron of being baby Tesoro’s biological father during Halloween week. This isn’t some casual suggestion whispered in the hallway—Leo marches right up to Aaron and lays it all out there. He’s been fostering this baby with Javi Hernandez, he knows the timeline doesn’t add up with Tate Black, and he’s done the math. The confrontation catches Aaron completely off guard, even though he’s been quietly panicking about this exact scenario for months.

Leo isn’t known for his subtlety. The gossip columnist turned foster dad has never been one to keep his opinions to himself, and when he suspects something? He goes after the truth like a dog with a bone. His accusation forces Aaron out of his state of denial and into full-blown crisis mode.

The timing couldn’t be worse for Aaron. He’s already dealing with the fallout from his brother Mark Greene’s involvement in an attempted murder plot and his sister Cat’s elaborate deception impersonating the late Abigail DiMera. Now this? The poor kid can barely catch his breath.

Does Aaron Greene Confess to Cat Greene on October 30?

Yes, Aaron Greene confesses his paternity fears to Cat Greene in the pivotal October 30 episode. But here’s what makes this scene so much more complex than a simple sibling heart-to-heart—Aaron has no idea he’s not just confiding in his big sister. He’s basically giving an intelligence briefing to a former ISA operative.

Cat was recently revealed to have worked as an analyst for the International Security Alliance, investigating Clyde Weston’s drug ring before everything went sideways and her father was murdered. That quirky, absent-minded persona we saw before? Yeah, that was either a coping mechanism for massive PTSD or a deliberately maintained cover. Either way, when Aaron sits down to spill his guts about that night with Sophia, he’s talking to someone whose brain immediately shifts into threat assessment mode.

The conversation likely goes something like this: Aaron recounts the specific details of his spontaneous, unprotected encounter with Sophia Choi. Remember how that happened? Right after Tate emotionally destroyed Sophia by calling her “Holly” during an intimate moment. Ouch. Sophia was hurt and vulnerable, Aaron had been crushing on her forever, and they went back to his place to “watch a movie.” We all know what THAT means in soap opera speak!

Cat will process every word Aaron says through a completely different lens than he expects. She won’t just offer comfort—she’ll start strategizing. Information control. Damage assessment. Contingency planning. Her little brother just handed her a mission, and given what the Greene family has already been through with Mark and her own Abigail mess, she’s not about to let Aaron become the next casualty.

Why Isn’t Tate Black the Father of Sophia’s Baby?

Tate Black (Leo Howard) is definitely NOT the father because the DNA test performed by Dr. Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) came back negative on October 1. Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) arranged that test when Sophia’s behavior became increasingly erratic and suspicious, and the results were crystal clear—no biological match.

But here’s the thing that’s been staring everyone in the face from the very beginning: Tate and Sophia used a condom during their encounter. The show made a point of establishing this fact explicitly, planting that seed of doubt right from the start of the pregnancy storyline. It was the writers’ way of telegraphing to paying-attention fans that something didn’t add up.

Meanwhile? Aaron and Sophia’s spontaneous hookup was completely unplanned and unprotected.

Do the math. The timeline fits perfectly. The biology fits perfectly. The narrative logic fits perfectly. Tate was always a red herring—the guy everyone THOUGHT was the father because Sophia deliberately lied and said he was. She maintained that deception for MONTHS, even as her pregnancy got complicated with high blood pressure and bed rest. She stuck to her story through going into labor at their high school graduation ceremony!

Then, when the truth started closing in on her, Sophia made the desperate decision to surrender baby Tesoro under the safe haven law at a fire station. Talk about avoiding responsibility! The baby ended up in foster care with Leo and Javi, with Police Commissioner Rafe Hernandez appointed as the legal guardian due to the complicated circumstances.

What Will Cat Greene Do to Protect Aaron?

Cat Greene is about to go into full protective big sister mode—except “protective” takes on a whole new meaning when you’re talking about someone with intelligence operative training. Based on her ISA background, Cat’s response to Aaron’s confession will likely follow a very specific pattern.

First? Threat assessment. Sophia Choi (Rachel Boyd) will immediately be identified as an unstable actor and a significant danger to Aaron’s future. Cat knows Sophia has a history of manipulation—the months-long paternity lie, the conspiracy with former DA Melinda Trask to falsify documents, and the baby abandonment. Future spoilers even hint that Sophia’s capable of spiking drinks and abduction when cornered. That’s not someone Cat will underestimate.

Second, information control. Cat will likely coach Aaron on exactly what to say and to whom. She’ll want to manage the narrative and prevent him from making any unforced errors that could come back to haunt him legally or personally. Loose lips sink ships, and Cat knows that better than anyone.

Third—and this is where things get interesting—Cat will probably launch her own covert investigation into Sophia. She won’t just take Aaron’s word for everything or wait around for Sophia’s next move. She’ll gather intelligence, verify facts, and look for leverage that can be used to protect her brother when this whole situation goes public.

Finally, contingency planning. Cat understands that when the truth comes out (and it WILL come out), there will be legal implications, financial ramifications, and personal fallout for Aaron and the entire Greene family. She’ll start preparing for multiple scenarios, building safety nets, and positioning the family to weather the storm.

This isn’t just a sister offering a shoulder to cry on. This is a trained operative receiving a mission briefing, and Sophia Choi just became the primary target.

Is Aaron Greene Really Baby Tesoro’s Father?

The overwhelming consensus among fans, spoiler sites, and soap analysts is that yes, Aaron Greene is baby Tesoro’s biological father. This isn’t wild speculation—it’s a conclusion based on months of carefully constructed narrative breadcrumbs the writers have been dropping.

The evidence is pretty damning: explicit mention of condom use between Tate and Sophia, heavily implied unprotected sex between Aaron and Sophia, and the convenient timing of Aaron returning to Salem just as the paternity issue reaches critical mass. This follows the classic soap opera formula where the “surprise” father is often the overlooked nice guy character rather than the obvious choice.

But here’s the clincher that moves this from fan theory to near-certainty: confirmed spoilers for the first week of November explicitly state that “Aaron Greene awaits paternity test results for baby Toro.” (Yes, the spoilers dropped the “Te” from Tesoro, but we know who they mean!) You don’t wait for paternity test results unless you’ve TAKEN a paternity test, and you don’t take a paternity test unless there’s a very real possibility you’re the father.

Some fans are clinging to alternative theories—maybe the original DNA test was tampered with, or maybe there was a baby swap at the hospital. These are standard soap tropes, especially in Salem where hospital shenanigans are basically a town tradition! But there’s zero on-screen evidence supporting either scenario. Sophia’s mother Amy Choi even commented on how much baby Tesoro resembles Sophia’s younger brother, establishing a visual family connection.

The writers have invested too much time and dialogue into the Aaron/Sophia encounter as the pivotal event. Reversing course now with a last-minute twist would be narratively unsatisfying and would undermine months of storytelling.

What’s Next for Aaron Greene and the Greene Family?

This confession to Cat is just the beginning of Aaron’s nightmare—or maybe his journey to unexpected maturity, depending on how you look at it.

Could this mean Aaron will voluntarily take a DNA test to confirm paternity? Don’t be surprised if Cat advises him to get ahead of the situation rather than waiting for someone else to force his hand. Better to control the narrative than have it control you, right? Given Aaron’s fundamentally good nature and sense of responsibility, once he KNOWS for certain that Tesoro is his son, he’ll likely want to step up. That’s just who he is—sweet, sincere, and loyal to a fault.

This likely leads to a “single teenage dad” storyline that will test every aspect of Aaron’s character. How does an earnest, somewhat goofy teenager handle instant fatherhood? How does he balance finishing school, navigating his first serious relationship crisis, and changing diapers? The drama writes itself!

The confirmation of Aaron’s paternity will absolutely DESTROY his friendship with Tate Black. Think about what Tate went through—he spent months believing he was going to be a father, made plans around this baby, fought with his parents Brady and Theresa, and emotionally invested in this child. Then he discovers not only did Sophia lie about the paternity, but his BEST FRIEND is the real father? That’s a double betrayal Tate might never forgive. Their lifelong friendship is about to be tested in ways neither of them ever imagined.

As for Sophia? Her web of lies is unraveling fast. The relationship between her and Aaron will become the new central focus, with his inherent goodness clashing against her established pattern of manipulation and deception. She’s proven she’s capable of extreme actions when cornered—abandoning her baby, falsifying documents, maintaining elaborate lies. What will she do when Aaron and Cat start applying pressure?

And Cat? She’s about to become the Greene family’s unofficial matriarch and chief strategist. This arc gives her a deeply personal mission that grounds her complex ISA backstory in relatable family drama. She’s not just the quirky sister anymore—she’s the fierce protector who will do whatever it takes to shield her little brother from the fallout of one impulsive decision.

The November sweeps are going to be INTENSE for the Greene family. This paternity reveal isn’t an ending—it’s a launching pad for months of drama involving custody battles, co-parenting conflicts, family interference from both the Greenes and the Chois, and the integration of this relatively new family into Salem’s core storylines.

One thing’s for certain: Aaron Greene’s life will never be the same after October 30.
