Megan Hathaway just name-dropped a unique character from Days of Our Lives past! And it has us completely intrigued by what she could have on her mind and how this mystery figure could impact the current story on the Peacock soap. In the recent episodes of DOOL, Megan mentioned a character named Thomas Banks. If the name isn’t ringing a bell for you, don’t worry! TV Seasons & Spoilers has your back. Here is all you need to know about Thomas Banks. So what’s the wait? Dig right in!
So, while the name Thomas Banks might seem unfamiliar, the name Banks might not. Yes, we are talking about Susan Banks on Days of Our Lives. Thomas is connected to Susan and her sister, Mary Moira Banks. Ardent viewers of the soap might be aware that the Bank siblings are or were actually quadruplets! All four of them were portrayed by actress Eileen Davidson. Now, we come to the interesting part. While three of those siblings are sisters, the fourth is a brother! Thomas Banks!
Eileen Davidson As Thomas Banks On Days of Our Lives Spin-off
The Bank brother on Days of Our Lives, is a gun for hire and a total sleazebag! The last time we saw him was on Beyond Salem. Since he is Susan’s brother, that makes the evil man EJ’s brother and Johnny’s granduncle! Eileen Davidson first appeared as Thomas Banks way back in 1997. Just like his sisters, Thomas, too has the tell-tale unkempt appearance. A strange combover with crimped hair, and of course, hideous teeth! In more recent times, we saw Thomas in Beyond Salem continuing his run as a gangster.
In the Days of Our Lives spinoff, Thomas Banks pulled the trigger on Phil for Megan Hathaway. But that’s not the insane part! It is actually HOW he did it! Thomas dressed up as Kristen and lured Phil to a hotel room! Imagine the thoughts that must’ve ran through Phil’s mind when he saw “Kristen” take off her clothes to reveal Thomas’ hairy chest and fake boobs! Well, we guess we will never find out because Thomas shot Phil dead and stole the prism for Megan.
Cut to the present, Megan is locked up and being grilled by Hope and Steve on Days of Our Lives. She knows they want Kayla’s whereabouts. However, she can’t tell them the truth about Kayla being with Bo. Because obviously, she doesn’t want to reveal just yet that Bo is alive. Thus, she fibs! Megan tells them that Thomas Banks has hauled Kayla away with him. So now that Megan has so fiercely instilled Thomas’ name in Hope and Kayla’s mind, we can’t help but wonder if creepy Banks will make a comeback on the mothership!
