Beyond The Gates Recap: Nicole and Smitty Bond Over Betrayal
Beyond The Gates Recap: Nicole and Smitty Bond Over Betrayal originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's Beyond The Gates recap: Smitty and Martin's Place: Vernon and Tyrell push Smitty to come to the concert. Smitty is resistant and Vernon remembers a time when folks would say how high when he told them to jump. Tyrell thinks his great grand is flexing but Vernon says he can't even coerce his grandson-in-law to attend a concert (Vernon, now is not the time to flex). Vernon asks Tyrell to head out for some ribs allowing Smitty time to decide to go to the concert. Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Anita asks Sharon and Tracy about the possibility of her solo. Sharon is definitely a no and Anita asks Tracy. Sharon interrupts and wants to know Anita's true feelings about the request. She says she would never upend their group connection but being a jazz performer meant a lot to her. Tracy jumps in and stops Sharon from reacting. Anita says she's not trying to ignore their history. If all of them aren't in, she will turn it down. Tracy thinks Anita should be able to shine if she wants to do so and tells Sharon to stop being petty. She gives in and they both agree to cheer her on from the wings when she does her solo. Andre's Place: Andre flips through pictures of Dani and Ashley on his phone. Nicole's Digs: Martin thinks his presence at his grandmother's concert will cause a distraction. Dani pushes back and his mother agrees. Martin admits he's in a bad headspace, but Dani indicates she's in control. He walks out to change clothes, and Dani tells her sister that her son is a pain in the ass. Nicole pushes back and Dani admits she could be more patient. Nicole says they can't force Martin to go to the concert, but Dani thinks otherwise. She says she has a plan. Dani gets Martin alone and says he needs to pull up his big boy drawers and deal with his situation. She says his constituents say she's always dependable and thinks he should be able to show up for his grandparents. If he can do so, he can go back to being mopey Eeyore afterwards. His aunt's words strike him and he promises to go to the concert. Orphey Gene's: Tyrell and Vernon arrive and chat more about the tough situation Smitty is in. Vernon takes a seat as Tyrell heads over to check in with Jessica, who is less than thrilled to see him. He admits his problems with his fathers have made him realize he didn't communicate very well before overreacting with her. Tyrell would give anything for a do over. Jessica isn't shutting the door but needs to go. She exits as Andre enters. Andre is shocked to hear Vernon ask him about Dani. He says he is grateful to spend any time with Dani. Vernon advises him to make the time they have together good. Vernon is shocked to learn how well Andre knows his daughter. He says he likes Andre but wants no reason to change his mind. Vernon joins Tyrell and asks about Jessica. He knows he and Samantha are going through a lot and pushes him to lean on his family. Tyrell stumbles and says some folks' backs are covered more than others. He believes they are being kept out of the full loop. Vernon and Tyrell talk a bit about the foster system. Tyrell reminds his great grand how he and Samantha lived with folks who had better and worse than them. They both being treated like babies. Vernon decides to tell his great grandson what he might deserter to hear. Smitty and Martin's Place: Smitty is surprised when Nicole arrives at his door. They discuss their broken relationships and neither can deal with the fact both are separated. Smitty can't deal with Martin's lies but Nicole says he is paying dearly for his choices. Smitty asks his mother-in-law if he has a right to his feelings around years of lies. Nicole admits things have been kept from Smitty but asks him for some understanding as the grands pushed him to keep quiet. Smitty admits how mad he is at the grands and Nicole concurs. Smitty continues saying Martin has a mind of his own and lied to him for years. He knows there are things he might not understand but has enough context to understand the attack. Nicole and Smitty take a seat and he says he just can't get past the lies and trauma of the past two years. She gets it a bit as she's dealt with Ted's foolishness. That being said, Nicole gets it is easier to forgive her son than her husband. Smitty says he loves Martin and wants to make everything better but doesn't know how to live with a man he doesn't trust. It's less about the last two years and more about the last few weeks where their children were in danger. Nicole and Smitty continue to chat until they come to the concert that evening. Nicole admits she and Smitty are in the same place with their feelings about her parents. She begs him to set aside his anger and hurt for one night so he can spend the night with his family instead of living with regret. He promises to talk to Martin first so their interactions aren't completely weird (I LOVE Nicole and Smitty). Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Dani arrives and is stunned to find Andre in the foyer. She immediately freaks out thinking he's come to her parents to ask for her hand in marriage. Dani tells him she's kidding and wonders why he's acting so weird. Dani goes back and forth about her with Bill and him with Ashley. She says they are what Nicole would call a transitional relationship… with that, Dani offers to give him a tour of the mansion. Just then, Anita appears and she asks Dani to excuse herself. In the living room, Tracy is practicing her moves and asks Sharon to join. When she looks up, Sharon is having a panic attack at the window. Previous Beyond The Gates Recap: Endings Vernon assures Tyrell he's not wrong as there is more to the overall story than he and Samantha know. That being said, the story is not his to tell. Tyrell thanks his grandfather but asks what he can do to plead his own case. Vernon says the older folks always wants to see the youngers grow but those two desires don't always work together. He moves on saying Tyrell's maturity has earned his respect and he won't ever disrespect his great grandson in the same way again. Martin arrives home as Smitty unexpectedly asked him back. Smitty asks how his husband would feel if he arrived at Anita's concert that evening. Smitty says he got the hard sell form Tyrell and others but didn't want to show without checking in. Martin is good as he thinks they can set their differences aside and make everything about Anita. As Martin exits, Smitty wipes away a tear. Sharon freaks out and runs out of Anita's house leaving Tracy and Anita to wonder what in the hell is going on. Keep checking back on the latest Beyond The Gates recaps!
