Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers and updates tease Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) will demand EJ DiMera’s (Dan Feurrerriegel) arrest. Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun) told him that EJ had Tripp Johnson (Lucas Adams) kidnapped, a vital piece of the puzzle EJ neglected to tell the police.
Steve and Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) were still in Seattle with Tripp and Joey Johnson (Tanner Stine) when Ava drove off a cliff, Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk) in the car. Salem Police Commissioner Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) had rushed to the scene when Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) warned that EJ had gone after Ava and Susan were kidnapped. Rafe found a drunken EJ at the crash site and kept him from going down to the dangerous scene where the car had exploded on the rocks below.
Rafe let the questioning of EJ wait, considering the drunken state he was in and that his mother had likely perished in the crashed car, presumably along with Ava. But Steve’s call to him and Detective Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) will fill in some of the blanks.
EJ undoubtedly paid the ultimate price, his mother’s life, for having Tripp kidnapped instead of paying Ava’s ransom as she wanted. But that doesn’t mean he should get away scot-free because Tripp’s kidnapping was unwarranted, EJ had the money and even Tony had told him to pay up. Tripp lost his mother too, at least as far as anyone knows but EJ, who decided he hallucinated her up on that cliff after Rafe left. Steve, Kayla and Tripp will come back to Salem and when they learn of the aftermath of Tripp’s kidnapping and Ava’s likely death and answers will be demanded as well as justice. Steve knows what Ava told him and he probably still has the photo of Tripp tied up on his phone, but Rafe may puzzle about how to prove it was EJ.
With Ava supposedly deceased, Rafe and Jada will only have EJ to question, and he’s probably not going to say anything. The henchman EJ hired to do the dirty dead won’t tell, he knows he’ll be knocked off if he does. However, Tony knew about that too and he will likely be put in an indelicate position of ratting out his brother if pushed, although he’d rather protect him.
After all, Tony was the one who pushed EJ to pay Ava’s ransom but he didn’t want to. He may not have to though, because Rafe will figure it out, and seeing Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) living in the DiMera mansion at EJ’s behest won’t help EJ.
