Days of our Lives spoilers for Friday, July 18, push Tate and Doug to getting help from Rafe when it comes to Holly and Ari’s disappearance.

Next on Days of our Lives

Holly (Ashley Puzemis) and Ari (Marissa Reyes) have been taken hostage, and Tate (Leo Howard) figured out pretty fast that it’s all Doug’s (Peyton Meyer) fault. (To be fair, Tate thinks everything is Doug’s fault. It’s amazing he hasn’t figured out how to blame Sophia’s [Rachel Boyd] pregnancy on him, yet.)

They also figured out that they are useless and helpless little boys when it comes to dealing with real criminals, like the ones Doug chose to borrow money from. So they turn to an adult, Rafe (Galen Gering). We know Rafe will do anything to save his niece and her friend. But will any of them get there in time?

Support Staff

Meanwhile, Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) is in full-out panic mode. (She lost it when her kid snuck out of the house, a kidnapping dials her Mama Bear tendency up to 11! Except that, this time, she is actually justified.)

But you won’t believe who pops up to comfort her! Guess! Guess! OK, we’ll tell you. Xander (Paul Telfer)! Gabi is comforted by Xander! Guess her helping him out with Victoria was a real bonding experience. What could this possibly mean…?

Grace Period

Sophia gave up her newborn because she wanted to get on with her life, and because she suspected Tate and Amy (Shi Ne Nielson) wouldn’t let her once they set eyes on the baby. Sophia was absolutely certain this was what she had to do. But now that she’s been separated from her son, she’s starting to have second thoughts. Is it too late?

You Again?

Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) and Chad (Billy Flynn) keep running into each other. It’s awkward. Not just because she pretended to be his dead wife. But because she’s working with Rafe to bring down all the DiMeras. Maybe this couple wasn’t meant to be? So maybe they should call it quits… before they actually become one?
