Cat Greene’s Past

Let’s start with EJ and Cat. Fans know that EJ had some flashbacks of the Italian clinic. The same clinic where Cat read to EJ while he was comatose.

Cat is also an ISA agent and under Rafe’s supervision. So, Cat’s little schemes to get intel could come back to haunt her if EJ follows through with getting hypnotized by Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall).

Kristen DiMera’s Chat

Over with Kristen and Chad, they will have a heart-to-heart about “life and death”.

They will discuss life and death, which will have them chatting about Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo), Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash), and even Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford).

Javi Hernandez’s Honesty

Days of Our Lives spoilers for Friday, May 15, reveal that Javi will get real with Rafe. Fans recall that Javi is emotionally and physically distancing himself from Leo Stark (Greg Rikkaart).

All those little quirks that Javi used to love about Leo are now just annoying to him. However, I also wonder if Javi is lying about dating an old firefighting buddy.

That man didn’t check on Javi after his collapse. Javi didn’t ask anyone to tell him that he was okay.

So, I’m starting to think that there is no hunky fireman, that Javi just isn’t ready to deal with Leo yet.

Playing Hardball

As for Gwen Rizczech von Leuschner (Emily O’Brien), she will end up playing hardball with Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer).

While Xander is just using her, he needs to be careful. Gwen’s inner wounds are so severe that Xander could regret crossing her.

However, we also have what EJ told Gwen about Lexie. I honestly thought he was going to lie to Gwen to get her out of his crosshairs.

Still, she has invested quite a bit of money into Dr. Wilhelm Rolf’s (Richard Wharton) experiments.

As for Xander, he also has to determine if he will accept Kristen’s killer proposal. Xander is no stranger to bad behavior, but he hasn’t been a killer in many years. So, stay tuned!
