Beyond the gates Spoilers for October 20-24, 2025 Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett) is in danger and Cat Richardson (Colby Muhammad) is completely shut down.
As we always do on Early Release Day, we start with what’s coming in the rest of this week and then dive into what we should see next week.
Beyond the Gates: Leslie Thomas’ evil plot and Randy’s deadly order
On Wednesday, October 15th. BTGwe’ll have Dana “Leslie” Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) using the past to make some sort of play for her future. And somehow, Dr. Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) is involved in all of this. Leslie still seeks to be with Ted. She is jealous of his friendship with June (Jasmine Burke).
And you know that Leslie could trace a line to finding out that Ted is flirting with another waitress. Although what Leslie doesn’t realize is that June is completely innocent. She’s not a shark like Leslie. And who I think she always was. So whatever plot she comes up with, we know it’s going to be evil.
Randy Parker (Maurice P. Keery) receives a deadly order to execute, and the target is shocking. Now, just at first glance at this spoiler, you might think it’s his beleaguered boss, Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom), who is ordering him to kill someone.
Maybe he wants Marcel Malone (Daryl W. Handy) gone because he knows too much about Joey’s business. I wonder if Hayley Lawson (Marketa Goings) is asking Randy to do something devious to someone and hurt them. It would be kind of interesting if Hayley asked Randy to target her to somehow play some sort of sympathy for Bill.
We’ll see. I don’t put anything past Hayley after she faked that pregnancy and faked the miscarriage and surgery with Randy’s help over there. Didn’t Bill notice that they didn’t even receive a co-pay bill for all this crap? Come here.
Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Will Danny come clean?
Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman) has some tough questions for Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) about Bill. Now, Hayley told Andre that Danny was still interested in Bill, but at the same time, Hayley said that she thought Andre could make Danny happy and she was giving him some advice to make this marriage work because she wanted Danny out of the way.
She wants her to stay with Andre. I just wonder if Dani will admit to kissing Bill twice or if she’ll keep this secret because she and Andre agreed to have an open relationship, but I think it was also meant to be honest. Plus, Kat shares a big update on her relationship, as does Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson (Daphne Dupleix).
Kat is obviously talking about the terrible Tomas Navarro (Alex Alegria) and Nicole is talking about the very handsome Carlton who we never get to see a full set of. Now that Thomas is finally giving Kat a little excitement in the country club closet, it’s a little better.
But that’s not Thomas’ problem. He was fixated on her sister, and took her sister to bed to calm his ego. So, Kat can’t trust him because what will happen the next time he gets the heart of Wolf Wings? Will he return to Eva Thomas (Amber Michelle) again? I bet he will.
Beyond the Gates: A shocking proposal and Hayley’s toxic birthday gift for Bill
On Thursday, October 16th Beyond the gatesMartin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) was shocked when Bradley Smith (Mike Manning) got down on one knee while proposing marriage. He actually invited Martin back home. They’ve already told Samantha and Tyrell that they’re getting the family back together.
The kids are really excited about it. They’ll be so excited that Smitty proposed to them, and I think this vow renewal will happen very soon, and it could start by the end of the week. Chelsea Hamilton (Ronnie Rose Mantilla) believes Danny was robbed on Thursday.
I don’t know if this is metaphorical, like she’s been robbed of having Belle in her life, or maybe there are things missing from her house. Maybe that’s what Randy was sent to do, do something at Danny’s house. It could be a matter of rearranging things so that Andre moves in, while Danny makes room for him. We’ll see.
Beyond the Gates: Did Hailey cause Belle to have a stroke?
I’m interested to see what crazy Hayley does next, because Hayley has a birthday present for Bill, but someone else ends up giving it to her. I wonder if a Christmas present looks like food. I wonder if Hayley drugged her or something.
Because now we have to wonder if that stroke he had was organic or if Hayley somehow caused it. Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Ariel Prepetit) and Jacob Hawthorne (Jabr Hordges) disagree about her pregnancy and Naomi is at a point where she is on the verge of deciding something, like whether or not to terminate the pregnancy.
Beyond the Gates: Broken Vows, Renewed Vows
Then on Friday, October 17, an episode of Beyond the gateswe have Nicole and Ted feeling kind of sad about their marriage, and the years and years of marriage that are now destroyed and in ruins around them. I think they’ll be reminded of all that love and loss when they watch Martin and Smitty renew their vows when their own were broken and tossed aside, at least by Ted. I think Nicole kept it.
Eva and Thomas discover that they have been manipulated. I wonder if Leslie somehow tricked them into ending up together somewhere, because she keeps matchmaking them. Basically, Leslie lives vicariously through Eva and sees Kat as Eva’s Nicole. So, she would definitely conspire to help her daughter. Meanwhile, Kat plans an unforgettable night.
Now, it could be helping her plan the vow renewal ceremony or it looks like it could be a big night for her and Thomas and maybe everything that happened with Eva and Thomas will interfere. Also, there is a joyous event for the family that will apparently be Martin and Smitty’s vow renewal ceremony on Friday, which could continue into the following week.
Beyond the Gates: Bill Hamilton in danger, Hayley’s revenge, and a Danny Bell reunion?
The week of October 20-24 Beyond the gatesKat and Thomas may be at odds again because of what is happening with him and Eva which I suspect is Leslie’s doing. Martin and Smitty are back together. Renewal of vows. Things are great. June is in the mix and it’s acceptable. So, the only problem they really have is Joey, but that problem looms large.
Meanwhile, Vanessa McBride (Lauren Boglioli) and Joey continue to heat up. But I worry in the wake of Doug McBride’s (Jason Graham) death and Donnell McBride’s (Alex Cheeks) return to college if Vanessa is going to spiral and embrace more and more of Joey’s darkness and start doing dark deeds of her own.
Hayley plots against Bill. This will kick you into high gear. We already knew that Randy was her secret co-conspirator to some extent, but I think we now know a lot more. They’re cousins, but we still don’t know what Haley’s underlying problem is with Bill. This seems like much more than just jealousy over Danny. I think Hayley came into that family targeting Bill. I think this is a long-term personal vendetta. I hope we know more soon.
Beyond the Gates: Relationships in Chaos
Eva soon meets Jacob’s brother, Isaiah Hawthorne (David Lame Freebe). And he will turn Eva’s head away from bad Thomas. Ted loves June. It’s platonic. But I think she’ll tell Ted that his wife threatened her and that should change things between them and he’ll realize it wasn’t Nicole.
Danny and Andre’s marriage grows stronger, but can she forget Belle once and for all? Or because of Hayley’s plot, will Bill and Danny grow closer to each other, especially if Bill is in danger? It feels like Danny and Bill are on the long, slow road toward a reunion. We’ll see. Nicole continues to see Carlton, but she may find herself unable to feel the same way she felt for Ted.
