Days of Our Lives fans are not shocked to see how quickly Eli makes it his job to comfort Lani when she’s upset. Her partner is in trouble for shooting Theo — both kinds of partners, that is. And she’s got to figure out how she is going to move on and get things done in the meantime, and that means she’s upset. She’s got too much on her plate, too much invested in her partner, and too much upset in her life. She’s upset about Theo and JJ, she’s upset about everything.
So Eli, who is now a member of the force alongside her, wants to be there for her. They did have a short fling not too long ago, and that means they’re in a bad place to spend this kind of quality time together as a shoulder to cry on and a woman in need of someone to help her get through tough and emotional times. Her patience is not where it needs to be, and she’s got to figure out what to do.
But for now, Eli will be there. It doesn’t matter to him that he’s seeing Gabi. He’s got to be there for Lani because he is not entirely over her and what they had. We aren’t saying things will happen right now, but we are saying we think things might happen in the near future that Gabi might want to worry about. But she might be too distracted by the return of Will to even notice.
