Beyond The Gates Recap: Dani Gives Nicole a Crash Course in Break The China Therapy
Beyond The Gates Recap: Dani Gives Nicole a Crash Course in Break The China Therapy originally appeared on Daytime Confidential.
On today's Beyond The Gates recap:
Garland Memorial Hospital: Bill brags to Hayley about his progress but she thinks he still needs PT. Just then, Shanice enters all ready to go. Hayley and Shanice give him the business before Shanice wants to start with his arms. She tells him to crumple paper into a ball. He successfully completes the task with his left hand but is unable to do so with his right. Just then, Dr Montgomery arrives to check in.
Hayley explains Bill is a charmer at home 99% of the time but that other 1% he can be an ass. She and Shanice giggle (I like seeing Hayley have someone with whom she gets along) while Bill grouses. Dr Montgomery tells Bill the only way he's getting out of the hospital is by proving himself in PT.
Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Vernon gets a call from Anita about her trip to Chicago. She talks about how meeting the other women helped her get out of the projects. He thinks it was inevitable just like the two of them. Vernon promises to keep the home fires burning.
Nicole and Ted's Home: Nicole asks Laura how she's settling in. Laura is frustrated but Nicole tells her to be patient and says how proud she is of her for recovering so quickly. Laura asks if it would be ok if she asks Eva to come over and walk her through her new system. Nicole agrees as long as Eva is willing.
Nicole admits to missing a version of Eva and even thought she was telling the truth the day before. That being said, she can't forget all that Eva did to blow up her family. Laura tries to be supportive, but Nicole goes on to note how Ted also lied to her and is even more responsible for blowing up their lives. She apologizes to Laura for dumping on her, but she is happy things are getting back to normal.
Eva arrives and learns from Laura that Nicole signed off on her visit. Laura compliments Eva's work system but needs some help. Eva realizes Laura doesn't really need help and she admits she thinks Nicole really misses her. Eva thinks Laura is appeasing her, but she says it's how she feels.
Eva says she doesn't deserve a relationship with Nicole, but Laura thinks that should be her decision to make. Eva can't imagine how they would move past the hurt and embarrassment. Laura can't know how things will shake out, but she wants Eva to be prepared either way.
Leslie's Apartment: Leslie is excitedly watching her story when Jacob arrives with yet another search warrant. She asks what Kat had to do with the new search. Jacob tells her to send questions to her lawyer. She gets snarky in an attempt to distract Jacob and talks about her story, 'Before Always.' She says she is enjoying Millie who used to be the villain but is now the heroine. Leslie wishes real life could work that way (such good writing). Suddenly, Jacob finds the motorcycle helmet and gloves that Kat planted. Leslie thinks it's awfully convenient he found nothing the first time and now found evidence in the open in her living room. She suggests the evidence has been tampered with before Jacob and his partner exit. As they walk away, Leslie says, 'spoiler alert: In the end, I win.'
Orphey Gene's: Kat is ribbing Chelsea about her live stream with Dr Montgomery. Chelsea is reluctant to discuss which makes Kat wonder why she's being so coy. They chat a bit about her not having told Bill she's into women, but Chelsea says now is not the time.
Chelsea says they need a bigger work and living space and suggests they use Dani's guesthouse. Kat reminds her that she is volunteering to live mere feet away from her mother. Just then, Jacob arrives to speak with Kat and Chelsea makes her exit.
Jacob tells Kat about the search warrant and how he found the helmet and gloves. Kat is thrilled but Jacob thinks it's very strange the evidence suddenly appeared. He thinks Kat had a hand in planting the evidence just in time for his search.
Kat denies any wrongdoing and Jacob says he moved forward with analyzing the evidence. He thinks they could soon have enough to demand a DNA sample. Just then, Jacob gets a call and learns they have visual confirmation of a match with the video. Kat notes they are another step closer to putting that bitch away. Just then, Jacob gets a call with what is clearly not great news.
Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Nicole and Dani arrive, and their father tells them about The Articulettes' reunion. Vernon says they are in Chicago, and their mother will be home in a few weeks. Dani is excited but Nicole looks distraught. She breaks down saying she needs her mother right now.
Nicole apologizes for her outburst and Vernon realizes she came over to seek her mother's counsel. He notes how much Anita needs this time to reunite with her old bandmates and she's just a call away. Dani thinks it's great her mother is getting to scratch her FOMO itch. Also, in a pinch, Nicole has her. She knows what it's like to be betrayed by the man she loves. Nicole hates they are in the same club, but Dani wants to teach her the secret handshake. With that, Dani ushers her sister out.
Garland Memorial Hospital – Bill's Room: Dr Madison asks about Bill's daughters and notes the influencer and the lawyer's different life paths. Bill realizes Dr Montgomery is asking her questions to test his cognitive abilities. She doesn't disagree but also likes to get to know her patients. She goes on and asks what it's like to have a daughter with over a million followers which reminds Hayley the good doctor was on young Chelsea's feed the day before.
Nicole and Ted's Home: Laura thanks Eva for helping her learn the new system. Eva is grateful for an opportunity to be helpful – in the midst of this back and forth she declines a call from her mother. She only wishes she could take back everything from the past few months. Laura notes her improved relationship with Ted and thinks she and Nicole will eventually come back together. Just then, Eva gets another call from her mother and walks into the other room. Leslie says they have come to the end of the world as they know it.
Dani's Place: Dani hands Nicole a cup and tells her to throw it against the wall. She's reluctant so Dani goes first. She says nothing broken in her sister's life is under her control. Nicole takes the cup and breaks it into a million pieces. With that, Dani hand her another and she breaks it.
Dani directs Nicole to put a name on the next cup before she breaks it. She leads by example by yelling at her Bill cup before sending it into the wall. Nicole follows by going off on her Ted cup before sending it to crash and burn.
Leslie's Apartment: Leslie pulls Eva in and asks if her daughter wants her dead or in prison for the rest of her life. Eva has no clue what's happening as her mother continues. She tells Eva all about the second search warrant and Jacob finding the helmet and gloves. She wants to know how the hell they ended up back in her apartment.
Leslie is crushed to think her daughter wanted her to get caught. She breaks down a bit as she says aloud Eva doesn't love her anymore.
Garland Memorial Hospital – Lobby: Chelsea arrives and asks Shanice about her dad. She says he is a grouch when Madison arrives. She says Bill is vocal and strong-willed but says he is quickly improving. Chelsea says she and her father weren't in the best place but feels hopeful they will be able to get their relationship back.

Endings
Madison tells Chelsea that Bill is lucky to have gotten to the hospital so quickly. Chelsea swears her to secrecy but secretly thanks Hayley for acting so quickly. She gets a little flirty about seeing Madison during her father's follow ups. Madison suggests they grab dinner sometime.
Jacob tells Kat the judge is unwilling to grant an order to collect DNA because they suddenly found evidence during the second search which was not revealed in the first. Without the DNA, they are dead in the water.
Eva says she will always love her mother. However, there never should have been a helmet and gloves to hide as she should never have run Laura off the road. Eva admits she hid the evidence in her hotel room and has no idea how it got back here. She has to know she would never intentionally do anything to hurt her. Leslie nods in agreement but says this is not how her second chance was supposed to work out. She begins to cry, and Eva promises to try and figure out what happened. Leslie promises to get some rest. The two exchange I love yous and a hug before Eva exits. After she leaves, Leslie laughs and says she is here to stay.
