In Episode 11, the shifting timelines finally converge as the night of the gala comes into clear focus. Amid the swanky Grosse Pointe soirée, Alice learns devastating news: It was, in fact, her mother-in-law Patty who killed her beloved dog. The gardener decides to exact her revenge by sabotaging Patty's newly prized possession, the handmade quilt purchased for thousands of dollars during the gala's auction.
The whole gang kidnaps the blanket and takes it out to their gardening shed, where they realize revenge might be better served with an audience. So, Alice rage-texts Patty to come meet them, but her father-in-law Keith intercepts the message and arrives in Patty's place.
Then, there's a dramatic — and hilarious — struggle, as the group fights Keith over the quilt as they try to feed it into a wood chipper. Amid much teetering and tottering, the gardeners fight off their foe, until finally the group successfully feeds part of the quilt into the rumbling machine. But Keith doesn't give up. He desperately tries to rescue his wife's new shiny toy. For a moment, it looks like he'll be sucked into the machine and chopped into a million little pieces, but then he lurches backward, clutching the quilt in his hands. Crisis averted, Keith is alive and the blanket is (partly) intact.
But wait! As the gang stands in the shed, stunned by the struggle that just occurred, Keith suddenly collapses. Heart attack?! Stroke?! Aneurysm?! No. The camera pans over his back, revealing multiple deep puncture wounds. Upon pulling the blanket out, he had stumbled into a spiked garden tool hanging on the back wall, impaling himself.
So there you have it: The dead body isn't Gary, Doug or Patty. It's Keith. Keith is Quiche, and he died sort of by accident. Did you see that one coming, or did the big reveal surprise you as much as us? Let us know your reactions in the comments!

Gabrielle Nevaeh: New 'Stranger Things' heroine Patty Newby relates to lonely Creel
NEW YORK, June 8 (UPI) -- Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai, Monster High, That Girl Lay Lay and All That actress Gabrielle Nevaeh says starring in Broadway's Stranger Things prequel, The First Shadow, helped her check two things off her professional wish list. "This is the first time that I ever got truly emotional when I heard that I got a job because I just never dreamed that i could ever be a part of the Stranger Things universe or be on Broadway, and I somehow got the best of all worlds," Nevaeh told UPI in a recent phone interview. "I figured that maybe the Duffer Brothers would see my audition and consider me for something else, but certainly not Stranger Things: The First Shadow. The blockbuster play follows the teen versions of Joyce (Alison Jaye), Hopper (Burke Swanson) and Bob Newby (Juan Carlos) -- beloved adult characters from the Netflix series -- 30 years before the denizens of Hawkins, Ind., learn a shadowy government agency is trying to weaponize some kids' supernatural powers. In the stage drama -- which goes into Sunday's Tony Awards ceremony with five nominations -- Nevaeh plays a new Hawkins heroine, Patty Newby. Patty is the adopted sister of Bob, who will eventually grow up to be the kind-hearted Radio Shack worker (played by Sean Astin) who dies selflessly protecting Winona Ryder's version of Joyce from Demo-Dogs in Season 2 of the sci-fi series. "She's a warrior. Patty has had a really hard life," Nevaeh said. "She doesn't have anyone," she added. "Bob's at the age where he's obsessed with Joyce. Her dad doesn't like her. She doesn't have a mom. She doesn't have friends, so she is a loner. She's alone, but she is an optimist and she tries to make the best out of her situation." These are some of the reasons why she reaches out to standoffish Henry Creel (Tony-nominated Louis McCartney), a troubled outsider who arrives in town with his family. Viewers of the Netflix show are wary of Henry, however, knowing he will eventually kill his family and become the powerful villain Vecna (played in the series by Jamie Campbell Bower). He is only starting to understand his abilities in the play. "We get to see her nobility really shine through her relationship with Henry Creel who we know is Vecna and we get to see her heroism and the goodness that can be found in the darkest moments," Nevaeh said. "When I was developing Patty, [I thought], it's so easy for it to be the 'I can fix him story,' and it's also easy for Patty to take the route of, 'OK, I give up,' especially when she finds out that Henry truly is not normal." What was most interesting to Nevaeh to explore was how the teen misfits truly connect about the bad parts of their lives. "Patty sees Henry in a way that nobody else does and Henry sees Patty in a way that no one else does and they kind of need each other because there's no one else like them," Nevaeh said. "No one else can relate to their situation. No one else knows what it's like to be rejected by every piece of your life. Patty tries to give Henry a sense of belonging and Henry is the first person to ever see Patty and accept her for who she is." Both the stage production and TV show strive to authentically recreate the atmosphere of a small town in their respective eras. "The television series does an excellent job of showcasing things that were happening in the 1980s, whether it was politically, socially, economically," Nevaeh said. "We do a great job with Stranger Things: The First Shadow of touching on 1959," she added. "We don't necessarily go deep into it, but the undercurrent of the story is a little bi-racial girl falling in love with a little White boy in the 1950s and what does that look like? We can explore those tensions through a few of the other characters and really highlight the romance of the time that was 1959." In addition to enjoying nightly standing ovations, cast members of the play also find crowds of adoring fans outside the theater stage door waiting for them. "It's been absolutely incredible," Nevaeh said. "Lots of kids are coming now because it's summer time, but I have quite a few people who have come to see the show because they knew me from my time on Nickelodeon, which is a beautiful arc for me to have grown up being a child star and then doing something as important and profound as Stranger Things: The First Shadow and seeing those fans carry over. "It's just mind-blowing," she added. "I'm eternally grateful for the incredible response that we've been having." 'Stranger Things' Day: The cast through the years Left to right, "Stranger Things" cast members Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas), Noah Schnapp (Will), Winona Ryder (Joyce), Matthew Modine (Dr. Martin Brenner), Millie Brown (Eleven) and Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin) attend the premiere of the first season of the series in Los Angeles on July 11, 2016. The show turned into a pop culture phenomenon. A fifth and final season is coming. Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo
'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo Show Caption Hide Caption Phaedra Parks returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta Phaedra Parks is returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta after being gone for 6 seasons. Fox - 5 Atlanta Brit Eady is taking Bravo to court over the explicit photo incident that prompted Kenya Moore's exit from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Eady has filed a $20 million lawsuit against Bravo, NBC and the production companies Truly Original and Endemol Shine North America, accusing the defendants of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false light, sexual harassment and hostile work environment. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Bravo, NBCUniversal and Eady for comment. The lawsuit centers around an incident featured in an April episode of the reality show in which Moore revealed explicit photos, supposedly of Eady, on poster boards. The moment resulted in Moore being removed from the show, and the episode ended with a disclaimer that "based on Kenya's behavior, the decision was made to cease filming with her this season." 'Real Housewives of Atlanta': Reality show airs Kenya Moore's explicit photo incident that led to exit Eady says that the photos were not of her but that the episode falsely suggested they were. "The manner in which the episode was aired falsely yet unmistakably implied that the graphic sexual photograph presented by the cast member depicted (Eady)," the lawsuit said. "On information and belief, defendants knew that the photograph did not depict (Eady), or, at the least, were reckless or grossly negligent in failing to learn that the photograph did not depict (Eady). The lawsuit also alleged that the network refused to show Eady the photo before the episode aired. She accused the defendants of contributing to a "hostile work environment" and subjecting her to "unwelcome, offensive, and sexualized behavior and comments based on her gender by requiring her to continue working in an environment in which she had been subject to a gendered attack, creating an inferior condition or privilege of employment because of her gender." The suit calls for the episode to be removed from public platforms. Kenya Moore suspended indefinitely: She's off 'Real Housewives' amid 'revenge porn' allegations The same day that Eady's lawsuit was filed, Moore confirmed on X that she would not be taking part in a "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion taping happening on June 5. "Please know I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers," she said. "I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon." Contributing: Taijuan Moorman
