Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers for the next two weeks, January 9 to January 20, tease that Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan) will get some words of wisdom from dying Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall), but he won’t follow advice just yet.
During the week of January 9-13, Marlena will use what’s left of her fading strength to steer Eric away from trouble, but he’ll still take drastic action by pulling a gun on Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk).
Unfortunately, that won’t fix the problem since the orchid is truly gone. It’s too late for Kate Roberts Brady (Lauren Koslow) anyway, so look for Lucas Horton (Bryan Dattilo) to seethe over the news that his mom’s deceased.
Lucas will throttle Orpheus (George DelHoyo) in the prison visiting area, but John Black (Drake Hogestyn) will put a stop to the faceoff.
Afterward, Orpheus will give Lucas a bottle of contraband beer and push him to give into his worst alcoholic impulses.
Over with Li Shin (Remington Hoffman), he’ll hope Gabi Hernandez (Camila Banus) has calmed down following the brainwashing shocker.
Li will try to explain himself and will beg for Gabi’s forgiveness, but her sole focus will be on de-programming Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash).
The problem is Stefan won’t be interested in changing his brain back to normal and becoming Dr. Wilhelm Rolf’s (Richard Wharton) lab rat again.
Other Days spoilers say Chloe Lane (Nadia Bjorlin) will get updates on the truth behind her split from Brady Black (Eric Martsolf), who’ll confess how Kristen blackmailed him and used the former hostages’ lives as leverage.
While Brady seeks another chance with Chloe, Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) will blunder his latest shot with Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein).
Kayla Johnson (Mary Beth Evans) will die without seeing her daughter one last time – and Alex will be responsible for that since he’ll make sure Stephanie doesn’t get Chad DiMera’s (Billy Flynn) notifications.
Once Alex comes clean, Stephanie will unleash her fury.
Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) will also rip into Eric about some of his recent actions, so she might become privy to the kidnapping bombshell and the fact that he held Kristen at gunpoint.
Back with Lucas, he’ll fill Rex Brady (Kyle Lowder) in on a family secret, so he may admit Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson) is alive and push Rex to let him know about Kate’s death in his mental health facility.
During the week of January 16-20, Will Horton (Chandler Massey) will make a wild discovery that points in Leo Stark’s (Greg Rikaart) direction.
The padded muscle suit could come back to haunt Leo and give Will a reason to accuse him of being Bonnie Kiriakis’ (Judi Evans) fake clown captor.
Days spoilers say Belle Brady (Martha Madison) will also return as Marlena nears death, so she’ll be an emotional wreck.
Since there’ll be no stopping this illness, John Black (Drake Hogestyn) will eventually take Marlena to the rooftop for a slideshow involving their family and life together.
It’ll be John’s way of carrying out Marlena’s final wish and helping her die in a peaceful environment.
There’ll be some bittersweet moments as John holds Marlena for that slideshow, which will apparently come together thanks to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens).
Days spoilers say Chanel will grow closer to Johnny again as a result and could leave Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold) concerned about their bond.
Back with Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk), she has some heated confrontations in her future – including one with Chloe over the blackmail drama.
Once Chloe finally knows the whole truth thanks to Brady, she’ll rip into Kristen for forcing their breakup and using that life-saving orchid as leverage.
Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) will also blame Kristen for not handing over the orchid when she had the chance.
It sounds like Steve will vow revenge following Kayla’s death and get in Kristen’s face about it.
Kristen will use EJ DiMera’s (Dan Feuereigel) advance knowledge of Stefan’s brainwashing to blackmail him, but that plan may not work for long.
EJ might come clean to eliminate Kristen’s upper hand – or maybe Li will rat EJ out.
Regardless, Li and Stefan will have a major DOOL showdown.
That’ll give Stefan the opportunity to blast Li for trying to kill him and then ordering Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) to manipulate his mind.
Elsewhere, Rachel Black (Finley Rose Slater) will blow her top after seeing Brady and Chloe together.
Since Rachel wants her parents to reunite, she’ll launch a tirade and leave Brady concerned.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say the next two weeks will bring some sad shockers and serious sparring, so stay tuned.
