Beyond The Gates Recap: Anita Demands The Truth From Vernon

Yahoo6 days ago
Beyond The Gates Recap: Anita Demands The Truth From Vernon originally appeared on Daytime Confidential.
On today's Beyond The Gates recap:
Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Vernon tells Anita the surviving attacker returned to the area. He got a job as a bus boy at the country club and listened in on their conversations. He says the man has been back for more than a month. Anita is furious he kept the secret and demands to know every detail.
Vernon says he tried to pay the man off but things spun out of control. He says the man tried to get to Martin through his children but did them no harm. Martin scheduled a press conference to take all responsibility. He didn't go through with it because the man is dead, gunned down in a robbery (Not Vernon continuing to lie to Anita!). Anita turns and asked if he made this happen. Vernon says he had nothing to do with that man's death. He also wanted to stay out of it so he left the details up to Bill.
Anita tells Vernon he couldn't have known Bill would resort to murder. Vernon continues by telling her the Joey Armstrong of it all. She hates that Martin and Joey are now tied together forever.
Anita wonders if the press got wind of anything, but Vernon says Martin ended the presser before anything got out. That being said, it's all a mess and Dani and Nicole are going to have questions. She thinks Nicole is going to be especially difficult to deal with. Vernon wonders if they should have included her the entire time since Martin and Ted are so intricately involved. Anita worries Nicole will pull away when she learns more secrets have been kept from her.
Martin and Smitty's Place: Smitty has no clue how Kenneth could be dead then wonders if Martin had something to do with it. Martin vehemently denies any involvement. He realized to protect his family he needed to admit the truth. Martin was ready to go through with revealing all at a presser but then learned Kenneth was deceased. Smitty isn't stupid and knows someone made this happen to help him.
Martin says the only thing he knows is his grandfather wasn't a part of Kenneth's murder. Smitty starts to ask who did kill Kenneth but stops as he's certain Martin already knows. Martin says his family didn't tell him what was going on (True, but he sort of knows who's responsible). Smitty counters saying Martin knew Malone was involved and then hired him to protect their family. Martin says he doesn't know if Malone was involved in today's events. Smitty asks about Joey and Smitty admits he was at the press conference and doesn't think it was a coincidence. As they continue to argue, Samantha and Tyrell march downstairs and demand to know what's going on.
Smitty begs the kids to go back upstairs but Tyrell says they deserve to know what's going on. Martin agrees and says he will fill them in. Martin tells them the story of that fateful night two years ago, while smoothing over many of the details. Smitty watches as Tyrell and Samantha go to search their phones for details. Martin says they didn't report the incident to the police which confuses the kids. Martin didn't think the police in that area would believe they were acting in self-defense. He then reveals the man was Kenneth. Both kids are stunned and wonder why, like Smitty, their pop didn't tell them the truth. Martin says it was better for them not to know for their protection. Samantha asks what they do about Kenneth now but Martin says he's gone.
Tyrell and Samantha have all kinds of questions about the presser and Kenneth. Smitty intervenes and says their pop waited too long but finally decided to tell the truth about the situation. Samantha thinks pop's plan worked as Kenneth probably ran when he realized how much trouble he would be in. Tyrell jumps in asking why he ended the press conference early. Martin simply says Kenneth is gone.
Samantha wants so badly to crush the conflict saying she's so happy everything has been settled and they can go back to normal. Smitty says he's going to need a little more time. Samantha can't imagine why and doesn't want her dad to punish her pop for being the hero. Smitty says he's not trying to punish anyone and Tyrell backs him saying pop has been lying to them from the beginning. Samantha backs Martin who steps in saying her dad and brother have a right to be upset. Martin says it's going to take more than apologies to fix what is broken. Smitty says he can't make any promises about what's to come. With that, Martin says he won't be far, takes his bags and exits. Samantha rolls her eyes and heads upstairs. Tyrell follows saying he will talk to her.
Nicole's Home: Vanessa arrives to see Nicole and says her blood pressure is up after dealing with 'that bitch' Leslie. She explains about the scene at Orphey Gene's after confronting Leslie about Laura. She hates she didn't just walk away. Vanessa is certain Leslie deserved whatever words Nicole threw her way. Nicole admits she threw more than insults as she came close to strangling Leslie. Vanessa thinks she was justified.
Vanessa says no one is talking about her and Leslie as all are focused on Martin and his very odd presser. Nicole is strangely unaware of this event which puzzles Vanessa. Nicole grabs her tablet and finds some news. She immediately wonders why Bill was there, which also surprised Vanessa. She says Bill was acting like his spokesman and was very supportive of Martin.
Vanessa fills Nicole in on all the details. Nicole is beyond annoyed her family didn't bring her in the loop. Vanessa thinks Martin is in trouble and suggests she not wait for an invitation to get involved. Nicole thanks her friend and heads out to find Martin.
Fairmont Country Club: Dani and Bill continue to snark and chat. Bill tells Dani to stand down as he's met his 'read for filth' quota for the day. Dani realizes Vernon's words really cut Bill, who says her father cut him to the core. He admits he still desires her father's approval and is annoyed it's still the case. Dani isn't buying it as Bill is so cold. She notes the only person whose approval he's ever needed was his own father, who only withheld it because Bill wanted it so badly (Oooooh, a mention of Bill's father!). Bill says approval and respect are different. What he wants from Vernon is respect.
Martin and Smitty's Place: Nicole arrives and promises not to always stop by unexpectedly. Smitty is happy to see her but she recognizes things are not well. Samantha runs downstairs and greets her grandmother. She asks about Martin and Smitty says he's not staying there right now. Nicole is rightfully surprised and hugs Samantha when she learns these events just happened a few minutes prior. She mentions the press conference and Smitty says that was about something Martin should explain himself. Nicole tells Samantha her family adores and supports her. She looks at Smitty and says that sentiment is for everyone. Smitty thanks his mother-in-law.
Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Vernon tells Anita that Smitty was assigned to write a profile of Malone. It was intended to be a puff piece but Smitty did a deep dive, uncovering Malone's connection to Joey. He continues saying that deep dive led Smitty to connect to Jacob who joined the investigation. Anita can't even imagine what Smitty will do with the information as he built his career on uncovering corruption. Vernon thinks Smitty's sense of loyalty will come before his career. Just then, Martin storms in with his bags.
Martin says he gave the kids a sanitized version of what happened, but told Smitty everything… which is why he's there. Anita says it was unfair of them to pressure him to keep everything from his husband. Martin counters he should have told Smitty everything two years ago but he would have never gone along with covering it up. Vernon realized he was dead wrong to set the coverup in motion. Anita pushes back but Vernon says they could have dealt with the situation despite the consequences. If they'd done so, there wouldn't be another death on their hands. With that, Vernon says the situation is different now. They can't come forward or Joey will retaliate.
Martin and Smitty's Place: Jacob arrives and tells Smitty an unidentified man was found dead by a single gun shot wound in the park, discovered by Malone. Smitty tries his best to avoid making connections but Jacob says he thinks there's a connection to Joey. Smitty thinks the connection is a stretch which confuses Jacob. He continues saying there has to be a larger issue going on here. Smitty doesn't disagree but says he's kind of done for the night. Jacob realizes something is going on and Smitty admits Martin moved out.
Upstairs, Samantha tells Tyrell she doesn't understand why he and dad are so mad at pop. Tyrell says they can have differing opinions. Samantha thinks their parents should just forgive each other and be done. Tyrell says dad will eventually forgive pop.
Previous Beyond The Gates Recap:
Endings
Samantha calls Tyrell a hypocrite because he wanted folks to stay out of his business. Tyrell rightfully says that situation was very different. He says Kenneth was dangerous and no one knew. Samantha admits pop should have informed them sooner but no harm no foul. Tyrell says there is way more going on than they know about.
Jacob asks Smitty about Martin not being there. Smitty thinks it's for the best right now as he doesn't recognize the man he's become. Jacob says he and Naomi will do whatever they can to be supportive before making his exit.
Martin tells his grandparents Smitty understands the entire situation which is why he's upset. He is trapped in a situation not of his own making. Vernon offers to talk to Smitty but Martin says to give him the time he asked for. Anita says they will support him no matter what. Just then, Nicole storms in and demands to know what the hell is going on.

I Watched 'Jaws' For The First Time & Here's My Reaction

Jaws is officially 50 years old. It was Steven Spielberg's second film (can you believe that?), and it blew up at the box office in 1975, making it the first big summer blockbuster ever. Oh, yeah, it also won three Academy Awards, NBD... But even after all these accolades, I have never seen it... until now. So grab your chum bucket (aka popcorn), and watch the movie with me for the 50th anniversary below: Cool, cool, cool, cool... we're just starting off with the Jaws theme song. This is fine...I'm fine. Oh, look, now we're hanging out with the youths while they have a bonfire. And this man approached a woman... who was hanging by herself, might I add. Sir, stay in your lane. Now they're running toward the beach because Chrissie wants to go swimming?? Girl, it's in the middle of the night! Why do you think this is a good idea?? (I can already tell, I'm too old to hang with these youths...) "I'm not drunk!!" said a very "sober" nameless man as he ran after her. *facepalm* Wait... now Chrissie is in the ocean by herself... in the middle of the night?? In this economy??? And this man, who is NAMELESS, is struggling to take his clothes off because he's "not drunk"? This isn't going to end well. However, Chrissie's footwork? 10/10 And the Jaws music is back... Damn, you, American composer and conductor John Williams... damn you. Bruce got her!! Chrissie is screaming for her life! And this NAMELESS man is just lying on the beach?? Absolutely not. Why are you doing this to me so early in the movie, Steven Spielberg?? So now it's the following morning, and we're at Martin and Ellen Brody's house... AND THEIR SON HAS A CUT ON HIS HAND?? It's too early for this. What is going on with the youths in this town?? Okay, Martin and Ellen are so cute together. A healthy couple in a thriller movie? I'll take it. Also, can we talk about how great this shot is? You find out he's the chief of the Amity Police Department with perfect positioning of the car behind the fence, and the color contrast is *chef kiss.* "And nobody saw her go into the water?" "Somebody could have, but I was sort of... passed out." YOU DID THIS, NAMELESS MAN! Oh, no... they found Chrissie. Well, thanks to Polly, we finally figured out how Martin's son hurt his hand: Apparently, kids have been karate chopping picket fences. *shakes fists* Youths. Now Martin needs to go to the store to get supplies to create "beach closed" signs. A man of many talents... "This stuff is not going to help me in August. ... You haven't got one thing I ordered. Not a beach umbrella, not a sun lounger, no beach balls. If I can't get service..." Okay, sir, in the background, you don't need to be rude to the store owner! Where is that shark when we need him... #sharkattackonland "You're going to shut down the beaches on your own authority? ... Amity is a summer town. We need summer dollars..." Oh, this mayor is the devil, isn't he? Capitalism at its finest. I don't like how much the camera is focusing on the dog... Or this boy... "Are you okay?" "Everything is fine, it's fine..." Don't hide your anxiety, Martin! Tell your wife how you feel!!! Also, props to Ellen for being a supportive wife. "If the kids going into the water is worrying you, they can play on the beach." #morehealthycouplesinfilm "We know all about you, Chief. You don't go into the water at all, do you?" I don't condone making fun of old men, but HOW DARE YOU, HARRY. Don't bring up Martin's traumas to his face. Martin is right: That is some "bad hat, Harry." Now, go back into the water where you belong. Ugh, I knew it. The owner is calling for his dog, Pippet. The dog didn't deserve this, Steven Spielberg! Okay, you (kinda) won me back, Steven. Only because you did this iconic dolly zoom shot when Bruce unfortunately killed the kid and the dog. #justiceforpippet "Any special questions?" "Is that $3,000 bounty on the shark cash or check?" Oh, hell no. A kid (and a dog) just died, sir. Go straight to jail!! The absolute worst (yet best) introduction to a new character ever??? I might say so. My body will never recover from this sound. "I don't want no volunteers. I don't want no mates. ... $10,000 for me, by myself. For that, you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing." Uhhhh, yeah, I would trust this guy with my whole life. Give this fisherman all your money to kill this shark!! For the boy, for Pippet!!! "Oh, you scared me!" He scared you, Ellen?? You were the one who snuck up behind him while he was reading about sharks! At least she forces him to stop reading so he can fall asleep. "Wanna get drunk and fool around?" Get it. #morehealthycouplesinmovies OHHHHHHH, Matt Hooper has entered the chat!! And so has the rest of New England!! Everyone is trying to get that $3,000 reward from the boy's mom to kill the shark, but everyone is not thinking straight!! Why are so many people trying to get into a small boat?? Why was a person holding dynamite so casually?? It feels like Martin is trying to control a bunch of wild children!! Is this what parenting is like?? "Gentlemen, the officer asked me to tell you that you are overloading the boat!" "Ah, get out of here..." "Ha, ha... they're all going to die." This feels a little too close to what's happening in today's political world. *facepalm* I'm not triggered, you're triggered. WHY ARE THESE DOGS ON A BOAT WHILE A MAN IS THROWING CHUM INTO THE OCEAN?!?!?! Does no one care about dogs in this movie?? I give up! *Throws myself into the ocean* Oh, Matt, who is the marine biologist, asked to see Chrissie... and she's in this wash basin... Oh, Chrissie. I'll never forgive you, nameless man!! #justiceforchrissie Ah, so they think they caught THE SHARK... but Matt has other opinions on the matter. "The fact is the bite radius on this animal is different than the wounds on the victim. I want to be sure. You want to be sure. ... Let's cut it open. Whatever it's eaten in the last 24 hours is bound to still be in there, and then we'll be sure." That's right, Matty, SPEAK YOUR TRUTH!! Lord, the mayor has OPINIONS on Matty's professional analysis of the situation??? OF COURSE HE DOES!! "Look, fellas, let's be reasonable, huh?" Reasonable, Larry?? Reasonable? I'LL SHOW YOU REASONABLE!! The boy's mom came to see Martin and SLAPPED HIM! "I just found out that a girl got killed here last week... and you knew it." What a heartbreaking scene... and she's 100% right. Her boy is dead because of the choices the town made just to get "summer dollars." What a disgrace! And Larry, the devil — ahem — the mayor, had the audacity to say she was wrong???? Let me at him!! Thankfully, Martin said she wasn't wrong. DAMN STRAIGHT!! That woman lost her son because of you, Larry!! Well, I'm officially a part of the Matt Hooper club. Why? I'm so glad you asked: #1 He invited himself over and brought TWO different wine bottles because he didn't know what the Brodys were serving for dinner.#2 He asked if anyone was eating the full plate of food that was on the table, which was clearly not made for him.#3 He began to tell Martin that he should let the wine breathe, as Martin stopped giving a fuck and poured himself a giant glass. Also, add me to the Martin Brody fan club, too. His wife: "Martin hates boats. Martin hates water. Martin sits in his car when we go onto the ferry to the mainland. I guess it's a childhood thing. There's a clinical name for it..." Martin: "Drowning." "I can do anything... I'm the chief of police." YES, PREACH, MARTIN, PREACH. Stand in your power and drink that giant-ass glass of wine! Cue Mariah Carey's "Hero". "And when a hero comes along..." #4 reason why I'm in the Matt Hooper club: He's an encouraging "friend"... Matt: "I gotta find [the shark] right now; he's a night "ON THE WATER?"Matt: "Well, if we're looking for a shark, we're not going to find him on the land."Martin: "Yeah, but I'm not drunk enough to go on a boat."Matt: "Yes, you are."Martin: "No, I'm not."Matt: "Yes, you are!"Martin: "I can't do that."Matt: "Yes, you can." Seems like Martin found a larger "glass" for his boat ride! You won't catch him wine-ing about it. (I'm sorry, I had to.) JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH!! What is going on with this abandoned boat they found?!?! "We will be open for business." Even after EVERYTHING that has happened, this m*therf*cker still doesn't want to close the beaches? I've never hated a character more. Sorry for the swear words, familia, but my god. I need a "Martin-sized" cup of wine right about now. These families have no idea a people-eating shark is in the water! And Larry "the Devil" is asking this person and his family to get into the water, KNOWING there is a shark somewhere out there. Somebody hold me back because I'm about to jump through the TV screen. Well, look at that, LARRY. There's a shark, and someone else has died! You're lucky Martin and Ellen's kid got out alive!!! Oh, NOW Larry realizes what he's done?? "I was acting in the town's best interest. ... My kids were on that beach, too." Don't you dare! Just sign the damn papers Martin is giving you to hire the shark murderer and go on your way, sir! #justiceforpippet Oh, this fisherman like hates-hates sharks. "What am I going to tell the kids?" "Tell them I'm going fishing." OMG, where did this sweat around my eyes come from?? Ah, look at these two becoming best friends... JK, they hate each other's chum guts. "He's gone under the boat. I think he's gone under the boat!" WTF does that mean, QUINT? What does that mean?!?! Quint: "Marlin, Stingray bit through this piano wire? Don't you tell me my business again." Yeah, I'm gonna steal that. Oh, and let's sketch this on the biggest billboard we find, too: "Well, it proves one thing, Mr. Hooper: It proves that you wealthy college boys don't have the education enough to admit when you're wrong." SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK! BRUCE HAS RISEN!!! Martin has risen!!! "You're gonna need a bigger boat." (Also, is this the first full look of Bruce's face??? An hour-ish into the movie??? Such a smart idea to lead up to this reveal!!) Can we talk about how this scene would never be shot today? A real boat, in the real ocean, with real water? Give us realism, please and thank you! #2 reason why I'm a part of the Martin Brody fan club: "Martin, move, move, move!" "I'm not going out there!" "Go beyond the edge of the barrels. Further out!" "WHY? What for?" "I need to have something in the foreground to give it some scale!" "Foreground my ass!" FIRST SHOT!!! But he disappeared! Omg, my hair is falling out from all the stress. Wait, are Quint and Matt actually becoming besties after trying to fight a shark all day??? Look at them!! Oh... is this why Quint hates sharks? He was on the USS Indianapolis, where the boat was sunk by a Japanese submarine, and sailors were fighting for their lives in shark-infested I don't blame him... Okay, it's the next day and BRUCE IS BACK!! And Quint smashed the hell out of the radio with a bat while Martin was trying to radio in the Coast Guard for help!! He's gone cuckoo for Coco Puffs!! SECOND SHOT!!! AND A THIRD SHOT, too!! Quint won't quit!!! They tried to tie Bruce to the boat to bring him in, but he's too powerful!! I wasn't expecting Bruce to be a beast like this!!! Now I understand how this shark made people terrified of the ocean in the '70s!! Good news is: Bruce can't stay underwater with three barrels attached!! haha SUCK IT, BRUCE!! Of course, Bruce is angry and decides to chase them... of course!! Yeah, I'm never going into the ocean again. But their boat is falling apart as they try to go back to the shore to drown Bruce. Why didn't anyone tell me the last hour of the movie is just straight chaos?!?! Welp, I guess the only option is to put Matty into the shark cage so he can poison Bruce up close. This is fine... he's fine. Oh, no!! He lost the poison stick and is now hiding from the shark in the water!! AND MARTIN AND QUINT THINK HE'S DEAD!! Aw, now Bruce feels bad and wants to replace Matt by becoming the "third fisherman"... JK, he wants to eat them as little snackies. I can't help but think of Martin and how he must feel during this time: He hates the ocean and he hates boats; he didn't ask for any of this, but he got sucked in because of Larry! Now, a shark is trying to "board" a boat in the middle of the ocean to eat him and his mate. He'll need a therapist after this. NOOOOO, QUINT IS DEAD!!!! Martin is DEFINITELY going to need to see a therapist after this... Martin threw one of the oxygen tanks into the shark's mouth!! Didn't Quint say earlier that the shark was going to eat one of the tanks as a joke? I guess it's coming true!!! For someone who hates water and boats (and sharks), Martin is killing it!! His therapist will be so proud. MARTIN KILLED THE SHARK ALL BY HIMSELF!!!! He don't need no (fisher)man!!! And he found out his bestie Matty is alive!! Oh, Quint, you got the $10,000 but never got to use it. That's so unfair!! "I used to hate the water." "I can't imagine why." OMG, what an amazing ending. What a jaw-dropping movie (see what I did there)? SO GOOD! Have you seen Jaws? Tell us what you think of the movie in the comments below.

Beyond The Gates Recap: Kat Goes All The Way With Tomas

Beyond The Gates Recap: Kat Goes All The Way With Tomas originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's Beyond The Gates recap: Fairmont Country Club: Nicole and Dani run into each other. Nicole catches her up on Leslie's assault claim which Jacob made go away. Dani can't believe her prim and proper older sister laid hands on Leslie up in the middle of Orphey Gene's. Nicole isn't proud of her actions but Dani is thrilled and wishes she saw this side of her sister growing up. Nicole follows up saying she laid into Bill the night before but thinks she needs to focus her energy on Martin. She says she is meeting Tyrell and Samantha at the club later to give them some Grandma time. With that, the sisters hug. Tyrell and Samantha arrive and Nicole tells them how much Martin misses them. Nicole wants to make sure they feel supported in this unfortunate time. Samantha says she and Tyrell want to talk their dad into letting their pop move back home. Nicole says their parents have a lot to work through. Tyrell wonders if they have all the details. Kat and Chelsea's Place: The duo are discussing their upcoming launch. Kat is clearly beside herself, and Chelsea asks what's up. Kat says it's always Eva and is annoyed 'he' is always about her. Chelsea thinks she's talking about her father, but Kat says it's about Tomas. Kat tells her the story about finding Tomas in Eva's motel room the night before. She isn't sure what it means for her and Tomas. Chelsea thinks Eva isn't in her league and Kat agrees. With that, she calls Tomas. Tomas arrives just as Chelsea exits. He can't believe she called him over and says he didn't sleep with Eva. Kat wants to believe him but needs confirmation. Tomas says he likes Eva and doesn't think she's gotten a fair shake from her family. Kat goes IN on Eva and how she tried to blow up her family's life. She expected more from him and wants to know if he wants Eva more than her. Tomas says Eva is a friend and that's all it is. Tomas says he really doesn't understand Kat's feelings nor where he stands. Kat reminds him about the other night where he walked out when she wanted to sleep with him. She brings up Eva again and Tomas LIES saying he simply wonders if they are together because she likes him or doesn't want Eva to have him. Kat admits her anger got the best of her which keeps her from being honest about her feelings. She admits she is crazy about him but she will not be in a triangle with him and her sister. Tomas says Kat is the only person he wants (LIES!). She is taken by his words and they get all hot and heavy and finally seal the deal. Bill's Law Office: Tomas is outside Bill's door when Hayley approaches and asks if he's off the conference call. Just then, Bill emerges and says Tomas can take over. He greets Hayley and they go into the office. She tries to talk to him but he rushes off before she has a chance. Orphey Gene's: Naomi meets up with June and says how good she looks. June calls for the check as she is all kinds of anxious to leave. June pulls out some cash and pays for lunch. The waitress tries to look at June's picture but is brutally rebuffed. Naomi insists on paying the tip, but June thinks the server is unworthy (Also, what was that monopoly money June handed the waitress?). Naomi asks to take another look at the picture and says the kids are beautiful. She says she is curious about the phone number. Before she can answer, Hayley approaches and June hugs her and makes her exit. Hayley tells Naomi she is worried someone close to both of them may have committed a crime. She asks about Bill and wonders if he killed someone. Naomi thinks she should ask her husband about criminal activity. Hayley tells Naomi about his encounter with Nicole and how she took his head off. She begs Naomi to tell her if her husband is in trouble. Naomi thinks it's not her place to tell Hayley about her father. Hayley thinks her husband isn't a criminal. Naomi says her father is complicated and she has barely scratched the surface. With that, she exits. Jacob arrives and Naomi wants them to get to the bottom of the June issue. Dani's Digs: Pamela arrives to check in with Dani after Martin's presser. Dani avoids commenting and Pamela calls her on it. After a while, she leaves it alone. Dani admits Martin and Smitty are going through an issue but believes they will work it out. Pamela offers her support in anyway she can. Pamela says she has news and shares she's been taking meetings for their company about her. Two different fashion houses want to sign deals to have Dani be the lead model. She says she hasn't committed to anything but if Dani is on board their modeling agency is on the map! Dani can't believe these companies are offering so much money, but Pamela says she is drop dead gorgeous and the agencies want the woman she is now. Pamela reminds Dani she didn't quit modeling because she was too old. She quit because she put a man before her. Dani still isn't certain which is why Pamela called for backup. Just then, Andre walks in. Dani is stunned to see Pamela has set up an entire runway scene in the other room. Andre is ready to take pictures and tries to relax her. With that, Dani locks in and goes full on model. Dani returns and Pamela tells her to take a look at the pictures before making her exit. Andre says the camera loves her. Dani wonders if she should go forward. He doesn't want to make a decision for her but is all kinds of interested in getting all kinds of nekkid. Bill's Law Office: Hayley returns and tells Bill she's frustrated with his lack of transparency. She says she went to Naomi who directed her back to him. She wants to know why Nicole was so mad at him and wonders what's up with the murder insinuation from the night before. Bill says he has to keep details vague and says the 'murder' took place two years ago (LIES!). Hayley says she will shut down her questions because she loves him which is all that should matter. Previous Beyond The Gates Recap: Endings Tyrell tells Nicole details about what happened the last night with pop and dad, which is why he and Samantha think they are being left out. Nicole does her best to smooth the entire situation over without saying anything – which clearly doesn't satisfy her grandchildren. Bill informs Hayley that he can't always tell her the truth but would never commit murder. Hayley knows he is and will do whatever it takes to take care of her and their baby. Tomas kisses up Kat's shoulder in the afterglow of her virgin voyage. He is clearly trying to woo her to round two whilst she looks all kinds of regretful for round one.

Days of Our Lives Recap: Susan Returns to Help Exonerate Johnny

Days of Our Lives Recap: Susan Returns to Help Exonerate Johnny originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's Days of Our Lives recap: Brady Pub: Gabi arrives with Little T, looking for young Douglas. She tells him she's glad he's leaving town but not before she has her say. Doug apologizes as he never intended for Arianna Grace to get hurt. Gabi gets it but says Doug made many mistakes which led up to the kidnapping. He knows how much he messed up and wants to apologize to Roman but he hasn't been around. Doug asks Gabi if she'll give him the note he wrote. When he pulls it out, Julie's necklace comes out, as well. Salem Inn – Gwen's Room: Gwen is upset the necklace is gone when Julie arrives and serves her with a lawsuit for the necklace. Gwen thinks Julie is setting her up as the necklace is gone. She explains how she found the safe empty but is certain Julie took it. Julie denies taking it and thinks Gwen is pretending not to have it. Julie storms out and they both vow to call the police. University Hospital – Exam Room: Sarah notes Marlena's slightly high blood pressure and says she wants to run more tests. University Hospital – Lobby: Brady and Rachel arrive and greet Belle. She says Marlena is good, but they aren't so sure. Brady explains to Rachel it's like her stomach aches. She feels bad and then feels better. Rachel and Brady exit to buy Tate's baby a gift. Just then, Marlena and Sarah emerge from the exam room. Belle asks how her mother is doing. Marlena says she's doing much better, and Sarah ran more tests. She admonishes Marlena not to miss anymore meals. With that, Belle and Marlena exit. Rachel and Brady return and Sarah says Marlena and Belle just left. Rachel pulls out the gift they bought for Tate's baby and Brady explains about the quick birth and adoption. Brady says it's a shame because Tate didn't get to meet her. Sarah is surprised to hear the baby is a girl as she remembers the ultrasound where she and Sophia found out it was a boy. Rachel asks about a name and Brady says he doesn't know. She says she likes the name Mackenzie and asks if Sarah likes it too (yikes). Brady sends Rachel to the vending machine so Sarah can cry. Brady thinks Rachel remembers her Uncle Eric had a baby named Mackenzie. Sarah wonders if she remembers being in her custody. She also thinks she's upset as she and Xander have decided to separate. Johnny and Chanel's Place: Susan arrives to see Johnny and says she had to be there to support him during his trial. Johnny is surprised to learn Chanel has been in touch with his grandmother.

Horton Square: Gwen walks out of the hotel and wonders how she recognizes young Douglas. She flashes back and remembers him trying to deliver her some room service. Gwen calls the police to report the necklace being stolen when Gabi and Little T walk up. She asks about the baby and Gabi tells her a condensed version of the story. Gwen bends down and tells Little T to run as fast as he can from this horrid family. The two immediately start throwing insults about their inability to keep men. Gwen talks about how wealthy she is because of Dimitri's inheritance which Gabi assumes she will squander. She can't imagine why Dimitri didn't divorce her the minute he was released from prison. Gabi wonders if she offed Dimitri for revenge. Just then, Susan walks up and asks Gabi just how far she would go for revenge. Gwen is tickled when Susan directly asks if Gabi shot her son. She remembers the last time they met up how she sensed Gabi was at the mansion the night of the shooting. Since then, Susan heard Gabi actually admitted to what she saw in a vision. Gwen thinks Susan has her number. Gabi admits to lying but says she is innocent. Susan vows to find out who put a bullet in her son and storms off. Gwen giggles as it's ironic Gabi accused her of murder. Horton House: A flustered Julie arrives home when young Douglas arrives to tell her that he is leaving Salem. Julie is stand offish until Doug says he has a gift for her and hands her the necklace. Julie asks where he got it and Doug admits he took it from Gwen's room because it doesn't belong to her. Julie explains about her latest encounter with Gwen and now understands she was telling the truth. Doug asks if Julie is going to turn him in but she thinks it isn't necessary. Julie begins to crack when young Douglas says how sorry he is for everything. He says how much kindness and love she showed him which he hadn't felt in a very long time. Doug hates he broke Julie's heart and trust and then tries to leave. Julie holds him up and asks if she will help her put on her grandmother's necklace. Doug takes the necklace and clasps it around Julie's neck. He says it looks lovely on her and Julie says it makes her feel closer to her mother and grandmother. Doug says he gets it as one of his most prized possessions is a pair of cufflinks from his grandpa Robert. Just then, Julie tells Doug to stay put and runs in the other room. Julie finds Doug's pocket watch and kisses it. When she returns, she hands it to young Douglas and says it belonged to his other grandfather. Doug thanks Julie for her kindness. She asks him to tell her the amount of money he owes the loan sharks and she will wire him the money. Julie doesn't want him to be in continued danger. Doug is so very grateful and Julie says she knows it's what Doug would have wanted. Marlena and John's Penthouse: Belle asks Marlena about EJ's hypnosis session. She hesitates because of doctor/patient confidentiality but Belle says he already told her about it. She wonders if trauma is actually what's keeping him from remembering the shooting. Marlena isn't certain. Belle apologizes as she doesn't want to stress her mother out. She asks about the grief they are both experiencing about John and wonders if they talk about it enough with everything going on. Belle wants her mother to know she never forgets it but doesn't bring it up as she wants to respect her as a psychiatrist. Marlena says not talking about the situation is right for her in this moment. Susan arrives and tells Belle she there for Johnny but also to offer her condolences about John. Marlena walks back in and Susan tells her how amazing John Black was. She goes on and on about their history together and Marlena says he was very fond of her. She embraces Dr Marlena Evans as Belle controls her giggles. Susan pulls back and says she got a very weird vibe from her. Marlena inquires and Susan tries to explain but Belle quickly gets her out.

Gwen wonders why Gabi shot EJ but she says she didn't. Gabi admits she hated EJ and tells her many reasons why. Gabi asks if Gwen ran into Stefan in Alamania but she did not. She says Tony and Anna tried to reach out with no response (Both Dimitri and Stefan MIA…). Gwen and Gabi tell each other to go to hell before parting ways. Johnny and Chanel get a little frisky when they realize they've got a little time on their hands. Sarah admits she should have separated from Xander when he tried to hurt Brady. She promises to stop talking about Xander, but he says she can vent to him whenever she wants. Sarah says she has so much time on her hands as Victoria is with Xander. She then agrees to go to dinner with him and Rachel. After they exit, Sarah pulls up Sophia's ultrasound and confirms the baby was a boy. Belle returns from walking Susan out and finds her mother asleep on the sofa. She covers her with a blanket and exits the room.
