Days of Our Lives delivers Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) acting like the world’s best assistant for EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel). But there may be more than just business going on between these two pretty soon. We may see Cat and EJ coloring outside the lines and getting involved on a personal level as well.
With Cat moonlighting as an ISA agent for Shane Donovan (Charles Shaughnessy), I wonder if Cat is going to try and tempt EJ in a honeypot situation to get the info they need, or maybe Cat legit starts getting interested in EJ.
Days of Our Lives: From Heartbreak to Espionage
First, let’s start with Cat. She recently got her heartbroken when Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) decided to break up with her. He basically convinced Cat that they could be together, that he really liked her. Then they made love and then bam, Chad dumped her. Of course, that’s only because his son Thomas DiMera (Christopher Cary) was furious that his dad was dating Cat, who had pretended to be his dead mom, Abigail Deveraux (AnnaLynne McCord.
Everything was fine until rotten little Rachel Black (Alice Halsey) blabbed the truth to Thomas. Although Chad dumping her did break her heart, Cat understood that Chad had to do what was best for Thomas. Kids come first. And although the kid has gone too far, demanding that Chad run Cat out of town and threatening to run away if Chad doesn’t make it happen. It’s still understandable what the kid is going through.
The way he’s going to extremes isn’t cool, but that’s because there’s somebody else in his ear. So, we’ve got Cat sad and dumped and lonely. And by the way, EJ is also dumped and lonely, but he’s trying not to act sad. Plus, Cat just told EJ that Chad broke up with her. So, maybe EJ is now looking at Cat in a new light. Or EJ may have an ulterior motive that involves his brother Chad.
Days of Our Lives: A DiMera’s Motives
We all saw the Cat and Chad breakup coming. We knew there wasn’t a happily ever after for that couple given how much Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes), Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford), and Jennifer Horton (Cady McClain) despise Cat. So, unless she finds some way to redeem herself in the eyes of the Hortons and Deverauxs, it’s never going to be a go.
And as of right now, I don’t see circumstances changing for Chad and Cat because Thomas knows that Chad lied to him about his relationship with Cat As far as Thomas is concerned, Cat needs to go and Rachel is going to keep Thomas amped up about this because she is a bad influence on her cousin. So, for now, Chad is probably just going to throw himself into being a dad and running the Salem Spectator.
As for Cat, she’s throwing herself headlong into working for EJ while she’s undercover for the ISA and coordinating efforts with Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering). But let’s face it, she’s in close quarters every day now with EJ, who is handsome. He’s charming. He’s fit. There’s the accent. Cat’s got to notice. And we know EJ has noticed how gorgeous Cat is. That’s why he bid on her to be his auction date the moment that EJ woke up from that coma after Rachel shot him.
Cat Heartbroken on DOOL
Now Cat’s heart is broken right now and I doubt she’s ready to date. But if EJ asked her out, Cat might say yes to try and get more info from EJ for the ISA. They want to know who helped him buy the hospital and what he’s planning to do with that secret lab that Cat now knows that he’s building. EJ and Cat already have chemistry. You can see it. And we all know how much EJ DiMera loves a blonde beauty.
There’s Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker), there’s Belle Black (Martha Madison), and of course Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney). Maybe he will add Cat to his collection of blondes. Plus, EJ loves to irritate his siblings, and he knows that Chad really liked Cat. So, EJ may find out his naughty little murderous niece, Rachel, is the one who blabbed and got Thomas to demand that Chad break up with Cat. If so, EJ may romance Cat to try and get Chad to see he can’t let his kid Thomas control his love life.
I mean, EJ and Chad have both watched Rachel destroy several of her dad Brady Black’s (Eric Martsolf) relationships. Pretty much anybody that wasn’t her mom. So, I could also see EJ trying to make Chad jealous, either to give him a wakeup call or EJ might do it just to mess with his brother for fun. You know how those DiMeras do each other.
Days of Our Lives: Behind the Scenes Spoilers
I’ve mentioned a few times also that when Days of Our Lives did their big 60th anniversary photo shoot, that’s for the anniversary episodes coming in November, so just in a few weeks. And when they did the photo shoot, they paired people either in couples or in storyline pairings.
So what really caught my eye, and I think I saw it in an Insta story on Dan Feuerriegel’s social media. I think that’s where I caught the photo, but they had Cat posing for photos with Chad and EJ. Cat and Chad, Cat and EJ, and Cat, Chad, and EJ. So that’s kind of hinting a love triangle or something more than what we have seen so far. So obviously we know that Cat and Chad are going to continue to be in each other’s orbit and EJ is about to be in the mix.
Days of Our Lives: Romance or Espionage?
Even though Cat is working on the side of law and order and EJ is criminally inclined and morally ambiguous. I do think Cat’s going to be intrigued by him. How can you not be? Right. The big question is whether feelings are in the mix. EJ may want to date Cat just to mess with Chad or he might think somebody with a shady past like Cat would be more understanding about his own shady past and his possible future criminal endeavors.
Then there’s the question of whether Cat would toy with EJ’s feelings or at least his libido to try and get the info that Shane wants about the hospital and whatever dodgy things that EJ is doing downstairs at that lab. So even if Cat is trying to dig out his deep dark secrets, EJ may be too clever to fall for that. Or he may pretend to fall for it so he can try and get Cat into bed while letting her think she’s playing him. And don’t forget, we also have Cat making friends with Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien), who is the secret investor in the dodgy hospital deal. So, we will also have to wait and see if she encourages Cat and EJ to date. Or maybe Gwen sniffs out the fact that Cat is snooping and spying and she warns EJ off about her.
Gwen Busts Cat on DOOL?
That being said, I doubt that Gwen will catch on to what Cat is doing. She’s not the most observant of British babes. I mean, Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) was boinking Gwen’s husband practically under her nose, and she didn’t notice what Dimitri von Leuschner DiMera (Peter Porte) and Leo were doing until she caught them red-handed. So, we’ll also have to wait and see if Rafe or Shane encouraged Cat to use her beauty and her feminine wiles to get the goods on EJ. So, it definitely looks like we’ve got a Cat and EJ thing coming, but the question is, is it romance or is it intrigue?
