Friday on Beyond the Gates, everybody’s got a scheme, a dream, or a bottle of wine. Dani eyes a tempting business offer with Pamela, Joey proves he’s even slimier than we thought, and Vanessa teeters on the edge of romance (and ruin).

Joey's Shady Plan
If you thought Friday was for winding down, Beyond the Gates had other plans. Vanessa waltzed into Nicole’s home office, wine in hand, ready to turn the day into a celebration. But Nicole wasn’t about to pop a cork until she got the 411 on the whole Joey mess. And oh, did she get an earful.
Nicole, ever the voice of reason (and judgment), reminded Vanessa that “children fib, men lie,” practically begging her to see Joey’s behavior for the walking red flag it is. Vanessa, being Vanessa, defended her favorite bad decision until Nicole dropped the ultimate truth bomb by asking if she had feelings for Joey. Vanessa did what any reasonable person would do: deny, deny... then basically confess.

Meanwhile, Joey was busy proving he’s not just shady — he’s a whole eclipse. Over at the hospital, Doug was charming the nurses with low-stakes bets because apparently, if he can’t gamble big, he’ll gamble small. Across town, Joey was whispering in Randy’s ear, laying out a scheme so dirty it needs a Hazmat warning. Joey isn’t after Doug’s pennies; he’s aiming for Vanessa’s real estate empire. The goal? Drown Doug in debt, shove him into Vanessa’s arms for a bailout, and turn her firm into his personal money-laundering playground. Disgusted yet? Same.
Poor Doug tried to resist Randy’s lame attempts to drag him back to the tables, but real life had bigger middle fingers to throw his way. After losing a patient, Doug’s stress boiled over, and he punched a nurses’ desk hard enough to possibly wreck his life-saving hands. So now he’s broke, injured, and even more vulnerable to Joey’s trap. Cute.
Dani's Next Power Play Is Served with a Side of Sass
Elsewhere in the Beyond the Gates universe, Dani Dupree was on the brink of making a deal hotter than her martinis. Pamela popped in right before Dani could pour herself a solo drink — tragic — but came bearing a business proposition: launching a modeling agency together.
Naturally, Dani was all in... with one tiny tweak. The agency wouldn’t be Curtis-Dupree; oh no, it had to be the Dupree-Curtis Modeling Agency because, in Dani’s world, top billing isn’t negotiable. Honestly, we respect the audacity.
But that wasn’t the only juicy offer on Dani’s plate. Over at Uptown, Kat was brainstorming new ways to grow the business and had a wild idea: why not make Dani their Chief Marketing Officer? Chelsea, Dani’s daughter and perpetual eye-roller, almost choked on her coffee at the thought.
Chelsea made it crystal clear that working with her mother again might actually drive her to murder. (Not really... but also, maybe.) But Kat, who deserves a medal for spin-doctoring, pointed out that this time, Dani would be working for them. Chelsea was still skeptical but definitely less ready to hurl herself into traffic over the idea. Progress!
Anita’s Flashback Friday Hits Hard
Because this Beyond the Gates episode wasn’t already bursting at the seams with drama, we got a little trip down memory lane courtesy of Anita. Fresh off her victory over Bill, Anita sat down with Naomi to process her feelings like a grown-up.
Anita admitted that she still misses the rush of her superstar days — the glamour, the terror, the adrenaline. Naomi, always ready with a solution, decided to cheer up her fabulous grandmother with a night out at Uptown. Spoiler alert: Naomi’s planning a musical surprise that’s guaranteed to be as extra as Anita deserves.
We bring you daily spoilers and recaps so you never miss a thing. We live for the drama!
