Beyond The Gates Recap: Hayley Loses Her Baby
Beyond The Gates Recap: Hayley Loses Her Baby originally appeared on Daytime Confidential.
On today's Beyond The Gates recap:
Ashley's Place: Naomi urges Ashley to tell her what she knows about her dad and Hayley's baby. Ashley tries to put Naomi off who reminds her friend she is a bad liar. Ashley says she can't reveal folks' medical information, even to a friend. Ashley offers to pay her a dollar so they can have lawyer/client confidentiality. Naomi explains the legal grey area she'd be getting into and doesn't want to cost Ashley her job. They decide to try to discuss a hypothetical situation without names. They take a seat, and Ashley tells her a story about a pregnant woman who refused an ultrasound… They go back and forth until Naomi says she actually saw a sonogram picture of the baby, which contradicts Ashley's story of no ultrasound happening.
Naomi can't imagine why anyone would fake a sonogram. Ashley says Dani has a theory and says she brought Hayley into the doctor's office the last time and is convinced she is faking the pregnancy. Naomi doesn't buy it as Hayley already has the ring but Ashley isn't quite as certain.
They shift the conversation to Ashley, Derek and Andre Richardson. Ashley knows there are bigger fish for Naomi to fry right now and says they can continue the conversation later. With that, Naomi exits.
Uptown: Dani is seated when Hayley stumbles out from the back screaming with blood on her. Dani goes to Hayley, but she screams not to touch her. Dani backs away but tries her best to help but Hayley says, 'don't do me any favors, bitch.' She would rather go to the hospital with a stranger than Dani. She points at a stranger, Sammy, who agrees to take her to the hospital.
Dani calls Bill and fills him in on the situation with Hayley. They hang up and Sammy walks back in. Dani asks what happened and he says he got her to the hospital but returned to get her phone and purse. He tries to leave with those items when Dani stops him saying he looks familiar. Sammy simply says he hopes Hayley doesn't lose her baby and exits.
Orphey Gene's: Vanessa sits thinking about her last encounter with Joey. Just then, Doug shows up and Vanessa tells him to back off Joey. Doug takes a seat and is not surprised his wife only summoned him to discuss Joey. She recognizes he's been drinking, and he says he has nothing else to do since he quit his job. Doug goes off on Ted, but Vanessa redirects him to how dangerous Joey is.
Doug gets all kinds of loud, and Vanessa tells him to quiet down. She talks about what Joey is capable of and thinks back to his story about disposing of a man. Doug refuses to be intimidated and thinks he has Joey exactly where he wants him. Vanessa stops her husband dead by saying he put a bug in Doug's car. They calm down and say they care for each other, and Doug says he worries about his wife's association with Joey. He says if something happens with the money Joey will protect himself. Vanessa gets it but is in way too deep.
Doug promises not to try and expose Joey. He cares about their marriage and wouldn't want the mother of their children, Donnell and Deanna, to go to prison. Doug says he appreciates his wife and Vanessa thanks him for backing down.
Joey's Gambling Pit: Elon arrives to see Joey to talk about the murder in the park. Joey pretends he doesn't know of what he speaks. Elon recalls having a conversation in Bill's office about Kenneth but nothing about him being killed. He says he knows Joey is up to his neck in this murder business and it's his job to bring folks to justice. Elon says the case is closed and wants Joey to be thankful for the favor. Joey says Elon was saving his own behind as so many major players were connected, including himself. As Elon and Joey shake hands, Jacob walks in the room. Joey exits to leave father and son to discuss.
Jacob asks his father why the park murder was closed without an arrest. Elon reminds his son to stay in his place and wonders why he's being questioned. Jacob thinks his dad is involved in a conspiracy. He always thought his dad was the most honest of cops which seems to gut his father. Elon explodes and says his son has no clue how much he has been protected. Elon reminds Jacob how his moral code seems to have family exceptions noting his mother and mother in law avoiding arrest. He can't imagine why his son thinks he can break the rules but no one else can. With that, Elon commands his son to cease all investigating of the park murder and assigns him to desk duty.
Bill and Hayley's Digs: Hayley is on the sofa messing with her tablet when Naomi arrives. She immediately asks why her ex-bestie lied about the ultrasound.
