DAYS Spoilers, May 17: Stefan Takes His Fight to the Mayor

On the May 17 episode of Days of our Lives, spoilers tease Stefan going above his brother’s head, Steve having some big questions for Ava, and Nicole trying to make amends with Holly.

Will Paulina Save the Day?

Stefan (Brandon Barash) is reeling from the fact that EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) is being stubborn and refusing to re-open the Li Shin (Remington Hoffman) murder case despite some pertinent new evidence that Gabi did not kill him. He is not about to take this lying down so he goes to EJ’s boss.

Paulina (Jackee Harry) already has a bone to pick with EJ and regrets even giving him the DA job. He has clearly used it for personal vendettas and she wants to help Stefan. However, EJ is also threatening to ruin her reputation as mayor so she needs to tread carefully to get Gabi out of jail.

What Does Ava Know?

Steve (Stephen Nichols) can tell that Ava (Tamara Braun) is keeping something from him. She knows more about Clyde (James Read) and his whereabouts than she has been letting on but she is keeping mum.

When Steve questions Ava, will she cave? Not only did she help Clyde escape, but she also now knows he could have been involved with a big murder.

Nicole and Eric Child Tales

Nicole (Arianne Zucker) wants to make things up to Holly (Ashley Puzemis) after their Mother’s Day fight but that’s easier said than done. Holly refuses to listen to her mother unless she relents and allows her to go to prom. Will Nicole give in?

Finally, John (Drake Hogestyn) pays a visit to Eric’s (Greg Vaughan) apartment and ends up helping out with Jude. Will anyone in Eric’s family make any discoveries about this baby?
