Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers for Friday, January 24, reveal that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) will show off his softer side and give Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) some comfort. Kristen is an emotional wreck over runaway Rachel Black (Finley Rose Slater) right now, so she’ll appreciate having EJ to lean on.

Kristen recently leaned on Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) as well, but now it’s his turn to get support from Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun).

Days spoilers say Ava will console Brady and wish there was some way to help resolve this whole Rachel crisis.

Meanwhile, Rachel just walked in an old house and told her stuffed snake that they finally made it.

It appears Rachel has been to this house before or has at least researched it – and she might even know the lady she’s about to cross paths with inside.

Roslyn Gentle will make her debut as “Woman in White,” so her official character name is being concealed for now.

That said, there’s a good chance this is the same Woman in White who haunted Aremid in 1995 and turned out to be Rachel Blake, Kristen’s mother.

Little Rachel has perhaps already been in contact with her grandma, who could be alive and kicking despite being presumed deceased in 1996.

Then again, this upcoming encounter could involve the two Rachels meeting for the first time.

It’s even possible that Rachel’s grandmother only exists in some ghostly form, but she’ll have some very real ideas on how to assist her special guest.

Once Rachel complains about Ava on Friday’s DOOL episode, it looks like this Woman in White will help set a trap for her.

Rachel will use the phone that the Woman in White offers, so she may call Ava and lure her to the property.

Maybe Rachel will pretend she’s scared of her parents punishing her and beg Ava to come get her instead.

Whatever the case, Ava will indeed end up at this house, where she’ll find Rachel’s stuffed snake.

Rachel and the Woman in White will work together to knock Ava out, so she’ll be tied to a chair once she’s unconscious.

While Ava becomes a hostage, Days spoilers say Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) will get in touch with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall).

This may start out as a conversation about the assistant job, but it may turn into Cat comforting Marlena if she gets updates on missing Rachel and John being so deep undercover.

Other Days spoilers say Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) will sense that Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) could use professional assistance – presumably to deal with her grief.

Julie will surrender to Chad’s idea, so he may take her to Marlena’s office.

That could give Chad an opportunity to bump into Cat while he’s there, so stick with us for more news on how this interaction might play out.

Days of Our Lives spoilers say Chad’s priority on Friday’s episode will be helping Julie, so we’ll bring you predictions on whether therapy will prove beneficial.
