Young and the Restless spoilers for next week include a stunning confession from Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) and Tessa Porter‘s (Cait Fairbanks) life-changing decision. We’ve got the latest Y&R spoilers for the week of September 29th.

Young and the Restless: Spoilers Sally Spectra’s Shocking Confession and Billy Abbott’s Plea

We’re going to start with Sally and what she is confessing and to whom. As this week ended, it seems that Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) finally got a clue and he begs Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) to make up instead of break up. I’m sorry, I just don’t buy Billy backtracking on the revenge. He insisted to Sally though that she is the most important thing in his life. Billy says he’ll stop the revenge games, put her first, get the funding back for AbbottComm, and he will work for Sally at their new startup.

Against all odds, when Billy went through all this, Sally actually believed it. Billy wasted no time in getting their relationship back on track over drinks at the Jazz Lounge. He was toasting Sally, insisting he will choose her over Chancellor. Billy knows he’s got to give all this up if he wants to prove himself and keep Sally. So she warned him he better never put her second or third again. He gets it and tells her, “No, I’m choosing you. I’m turning away from all of it.”

Sally is noticing that all of a sudden Billy says all the right things and he’s saying he’s obsessed with her, not revenge. He won’t give her up. Billy is also pressing Sally to move in with him, but she wants to take things slow, which is smart. Billy does get her back into bed, which is kind of dumb for her. I mean, she cares about him. So, it seems like Sally and Billy are at the moment on the same page, destined for a happily ever after.

Things Take Turn for Sally & Billy on Y&R

However, it sounds like something is about to go seriously wrong between Sally and Billy again because official Young and the Restless spoilers for next week have Sally on a video call with Billy’s mom, Jill Abbott (Jess Walton). I don’t think we’ve ever seen them interacting like that unless it was for business reasons. So, that’s who Sally is making the confession to. She’s got two things to say to Jill. First, Sally says that she’s fallen in love with Billy.

I’m sure Jill will be happy to hear that he’s got a woman in his life. But then Sally tells Jill they have a real problem. So, there’s a slim chance that Billy is not going to go off the rails again already. Maybe Sally just wants to warn Jill that Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) has this awful AI and that he’s posing a threat to Billy and other people Jill cares about. Sally may be just giving her an informational call. Or maybe Billy screwed things up again already. We’ll have to wear wait and see.

Michael Baldwin’s Tense Confrontation with Cane Ashby

Now, let’s talk about Michael Baldwin (Christian Leblanc) because at the end of this week, Cane has a serious chat with him after Cane rejects Victor Newman‘s (Eric Braeden) blackmail and The Mustache walks out. Michael is playing dumb about why Victor was there, even though he knows. Cane tells him he rejected a deal from Victor. Michael then says Victor warned him about working for Kane and asks if Victor was right to warn him.

Michael also is asking for details about Cane’s plan, and he wants to know if Cane sees himself as a villain or a hero. So, Michael sidesteps the question and just says that everybody’s worried about what Cane is going to do to Genoa City’s top companies. Cane keeps pressing him, and then finally, the lawyer confesses to Cane that he doesn’t want him hurting the people he cares about. So, Michael warns Cane, “Stop it or I will stop you.”

Michael is prodding him about, “Are you doing these things to try and impress Lily Winters?” Cane says that Michael is not who he thought he was, and he fires him. Cane doesn’t want to pay Michael to see him working against him. However, Cane does say that he respects Michael as a man.

So he gets why he’s doing what he’s doing, but he’s not going to have him sabotaging and undermining him. Michael warns Cane he’s going to fight him and he is not going to let him target the people he cares about. He lets him know that even if he’s not working for Cane, he’ll still be working against him from the outside, if not from the inside.

Lauren Fenmore’s Doubts and Sharon Newman’s Upcoming Storyline

Next week, despite Michael getting the heave-ho from Cane, it looks like Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) is having a moment. She has been pushed too far. She thought Michael was lying, but then Lauren calmed down after he came clean and said that he took this job with Cane, but he’s trying to stop a war in Genoa City and keep the peace.

But next week, Lauren is with her friend Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), and she’s venting. She’s very unhappy. Lauren tells Nikki that she really loves Michael, but she’s just not sure if she can go on this way. So, it seems like Lauren doesn’t like Michael being under the thumb of a powerful villain. It doesn’t matter if that villain is Victor or Cane, who interestingly seems to see himself as the hero of this story.

So, I wonder if Nikki is going to tell Lauren about Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) proposing a truce with Victor and asking him to help target Cane together. Something must happen with Michael to push Lauren too far. Maybe he comes home and says he’s not working for Cane anymore.

But before Lauren can pull out the champagne, Michael may tell her what he told Cane: that he’s still going to target him. He’s still going to work against him, but Michael’s going to do it without getting a paycheck from either Victor or Cane. So, it sounds like things are getting really messy. I do hope Lauren calms down and she and Michael survive this. Fingers crossed.

Tessa Porter’s Crossroads

All right, next. We have not seen Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) in a hot minute, but she has scenes next week with Tessa. Sharon has got a major storyline coming up where she and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) head to LA to see their son Noah Newman (Lucas Adams). There’s a big story arc there with three new characters introduced, and Noah is opening a club in LA and winds up in some sort of danger.

But before Sharon heads to LA with Nick next week, the coffee shop owner chats up her daughter-in-law Tessa. Sharon is telling Tessa maybe she should give this thing that she’s proposing a little more thought. Tessa tells Sharon that this is all she has thought about. Clearly, this is about what Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) and Mariah Copeland (Camryn Grimes) talked about.

And then what Daniel and Tessa talked about: that Mariah tried to kill somebody. It wasn’t self-defense, and Mariah is leaving town, doesn’t know if she’ll be back, wants Daniel to watch over them. Anytime that Sharon has tried to get Mariah to open up to her, we’ve seen her daughter get mad and threaten to cut Sharon out of her life. So at least she’s talking to somebody.

Young and the Restless: Tessa Demands Answers?

Mariah has already pushed Tessa away, but it looks like her wife is going to try one last time to hold things together. Tessa tells Sharon that going to get answers may be the only way to save Mariah and their marriage. So, I’m assuming this is about Tessa’s plan to go to the hotel where Mariah is staying and dig in and try and force some answers about exactly what happened, why it happened, what’s happening.

Daniel has already agreed to go along and help Tessa in whatever way he can, but it definitely has me wondering if Mariah and Tessa are doomed, and they’re really going to bounce her over to Daniel. Young and the Restless is heating up next week. We’ve got three relationships on the line. Also, be sure to check out our full weekly spoilers video for the week of September 29th through October 3rd, coming soon.

Days of Our Lives sees Xander Cook (Paul Telfer) and his wife, Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey), as we know, are so deep in love, but this is the furthest apart they’ve been in years. Still, I’m confident Xander is going to win back Sarah. Plus, a reliable leaker said their reunion is happening before the holidays. We’re going to talk about what it’s going to take to get Xarah back together again.

Days of Our Lives: Xander and Sarah’s Strained Relationship and Co-Parenting Struggles

We’ve seen the back and forth between Xander and Sarah as they both ignore their deep feelings for each other. And it’s been months. They will each give each other a lingering look. We can hear their hearts pitter-pattering, but neither one of them has been willing to swallow their pride and make amends as they keep butting heads while trying to co-parent little Victoria. It may take a legitimate miracle to push these former lovebirds back together.

It’s been frustrating because I am a fan of this couple to watch Xander and Sarah as everything gets worse and worse for them this summer. They both cannot seem to get over each other’s bad behaviors. Neither of them has clean hands in this situation.

The Root of Their Rift: Philip’s Forgery, Xander’s Rage, and Sarah’s Betrayal

Xander felt so betrayed because Sarah kept that lie going about Philip’s forgery that cost Xander half of Titan Industries. Sarah claimed it was for Xander’s own good, but all he sees is that his precious wife, Sarah, lied and took the side of Philip the weasel. That led Xander to beat his brother Philip to a bloody pulp, which led Sarah to be disgusted at his violence and turn her back completely on Xander, who was equally disgusted with her.

I do think Philip in that beating, was taking the brunt of all of Xander’s frustrations over Sarah fibbing to him and being disloyal. We all know Xander has deep-rooted mommy and daddy issues. And Sarah is his heart and soul, her and their daughter. That’s his whole world. So for Sarah to choose to be loyal to Philip, to somebody else over him, that’s just too much for Dandy Xandy to deal with.

Legal Separation, Lingering Love: Why Xander and Sarah’s Divorce is Unlikely

Sarah and Xander are legally separated and trying to learn how to co-parent their toddler, Victoria. But our leaker also says they will never be divorced, at least not as part of this scenario. Everybody in Salem knows that love is still there. All the fans know it.

Sarah has forgiven Xander for far worse than beating up his brother. Like when Sarah let it slide that Xander lied about her baby dying and stole another baby to put in Sarah arms because Xander hought that was the best thing for her. That’s kind of the same logic Sarah used when she let the whole Philip lie slide.

You’d think that Xander and Sarah could sit down and hash this out and talk about all the many mistakes of their past, but so far, they’re both just too hurt still and have such a dim view of each other. As mad as Xander is, Sarah has forgiven him much worse, so I think he needs to let it go. But again, I’m back to the mommy and daddy issues.

Who Will Make the First Move? Xander, Sarah, and the Brady Factor

In the end, the big question is, who’s going to cave first and realize we need to get back together? Will Xander’s therapy with Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) lead him to realize he needs to make things right and win back his soulmate, Sarah. And then he goes out and does all the wooing and all this hard work. Will it be him that has the realization first?

Or could it be that Sarah is the one who sees that she needs to win back Xander because she can’t move on, because he is her person? In the meantime, Brady Blcak (Eric Martsolf) throwing himself in Sarah’s path more and more. That’s going to start happening a lot more. Brady is hoping for a romance with Sarah.

I think Brady being in her way could help Sarah see the light where Xander’s concerned. Maybe she figures out even though her husband can be a very bad boy, he’s also the only man for her. In that case, it could be Sarah putting in the work to rekindle things with her hubby.

Obviously, it would be more stereotypical if Xander’s the one doing the pursuing, so it would be new and different if it was Sarah working to win that reconciliation and to get Xander back in her house, her bed, and her heart.

Overcoming Trauma: Family Support and Alex’s Plan for Xander & Sarah’s Reunion

Over the past few years, Sarah and Xander have been through so much. There were kidnappings of both Sarah and Victoria. Plus, there was Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) death that rocked the whole family. And then awful Fiona Cook (Serena Scott Thomas) showing up and running over Sarah while drunk and paralyzing her, then trying to kill her by throwing her down the stairs.

But still, people are rooting for them. Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) is rooting for her Aunt Sarah to get back with Xander Plus, Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) was speaking to Sarah as well. He knows she still loves his cousin Xander, but when Alex told Xander that he told Sarah she was missed, that didn’t go over well.

When Alex talked to Xander, all he got was glares and pushback. Alex keeps working on Xander to legitimize Philip by assigning him the co-CEO position and thinks that could help things with Sarah. But Xander’s just so salty about it all still. If he keeps doing the anger management sessions with Dr. Marlena, that could help sway Sarah.

She has been worried about Xander’s temper and violence ever since he threatened to take a baseball bat to Brady when Xander thought he ran over Sarah. Of course, Xander would never, ever lay a hand on Sarah or Victoria. But at the same time, Sarah doesn’t think that Xander’s temper and tendency to punch first and ask questions later is a good influence on Victoria. She thinks it’s a very bad thing on Days of our Lives.

Philip’s Redemption and Xander’s Path to Forgiveness: Overcoming Interlopers

We have heard from our leaker that Philip is going to be involved with efforts to help reconcile his brother Xander with Sarah because obviously, Philip’s whole thing played a really big role in their rift. So him making it right is a decent thing to do. That seems like a sure sign that Xander is probably going to cave and do what Alex and Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) suggests: play nice with Philip, make him officially the co-CEO so that the forgery thing is off the table.

That would make sense then if Xander did that, why Philip goes to bat and tries to help the marriage. But we’ve got interlopers. Gwen Rizczech’s (Emily O’Brien) still hot for Xander and Gabi Hernandez’s (Cherie Jimenez) playing games with him and with Philip. And Brady is crushing on Sarah soon. So, if it’s Xander who’s doing the wooing to win back Sarah legitimizing Philip at Titan, I think, would help his case. So would getting an anger management achievement certificate from Marlena.

Xander Proves Himself to Sarah on Days of Our Lives?

Plus, maybe Xander does some deed to prove he’s a changed man. That would help, like if he protected Philip or he did something really nice for Brady or saved their daughter from a burning house or something. Or maybe Xander gets a chance to rescue Maggie Horton Kiriakis (Suzanne Rogers) or even Sarah herself. I think it’s going to be some combo of words and deeds that could help Xander get a new shot with Sarah.

However, if it is Xander who is the one getting wooed, I think Sarah ould make very short work of this. She could just tell Xander very sincerely, “I’m sorry. I was wrong for keeping that secret about Philip. I’m proud of all the hard work you’re doing to make yourself a better man for our daughter.” And then Sarah can show him she’s wearing lacy lingerie. And that should be the end of it. Marriage reconciled because men are much simpler creatures, am I right?

General Hospital sees Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) is answering to somebody. A mysterious guy boss whose identity hasn’t been revealed. We’ll also consider whether he is a villain from GH’s past who has come back from the dead.

General Hospital Mystery: Who Is Britt Westbourne’s Sinister Boss?

Please hit that subscribe button if you’re not already following us as we dive into who might have been resurrected. Is this bad boss forcing Britt Westbourne to help him do evil science for very wicked reasons? I mean, Britt herself should be dead at this point. So, don’t tell me somebody can’t come back from the dead and be the boss.

She’s not dead. She’s living in Croatia at that posh resort that doubles as a sinister science center. Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) ex-lover is on a very short lease. She is being forced to work in the lab or else she won’t get her life-saving Huntington’s drug that she needs to keep going.

WSB, Five Poppies Resort, and the Evil Science Plotline

We know that Pascal (Marc Forget) is the manager of the Five Poppies Resort. He seems to be a minion of the big boss and the guy who’s handling Britt on a day-to-day basis. But Pascal is not Britt Westbourne’s boss. He’s middle management in this wicked regime.

Plus, we know bad guy Professor Henry Dalton (Daniel Goddard) and Evil Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota) are also working either with or for this mystery boss. The whole cabal is on Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) radar and the WSB’s radar because whatever work they’re doing is dangerous and illegal.

GH History: WSB’s Past with Anna Devane, Valentin Cassadine & Andre Maddox

However, I think the WSB wants this scientific research to use for their own purposes. We know from Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), and Andre Maddox (Anthony Montgomery) that there’s been a lot of sketchy stuff in the past with WSB related to experiments, mind control, and all kinds of dodgy science.

Britt Westbourne herself was brought back from the dead. That’s another reason we’re wondering if General Hospital resurrected a villain from the past to be her big boss.

Theories: Who Could Be Britt Westbourne’s Big Boss?

We’ve heard some rumors about casting that have us thinking the mystery man might be somebody whose name we know. Even if they have a new face, the known name is significant.

The first person to consider as the big boss is Britt Westbourne’s dad, Cesar Faison (Anders Hove). If you’re a longtime General Hospital fan, you know that he’s Britt’s father and Liesel’s ex. He is a top-tier villain, one of the worst in GH’s history.

Cesar Faison: Could GH’s Infamous Villain Be Back?

Faison was absolutely diabolical. He was totally obsessed with Anna Devane. He was known for kidnapping, brainwashing, wearing masks to impersonate people, torture, and murder—all the bad stuff.

Faison was head of the DVX Cartel, which was kind of the flip side to the WSB. They had double agents working there. Anna Devane’s sister, Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn), was working with the DVX and at one point, Anna was too.

There was some stuff about their memories being overlapped. It’s messy. Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) was part of that with the DVX. She’s another top villain I would love to see as the mystery boss.

Except we know it’s a man, not a woman. A bunch of people have clearly said “he” when talking about this person, including Sidwell, Britt Westbourne, Pascal, and others.

Is Britt’s Dad Controlling Her With the Huntington’s Drug?

Plus, Faison passed that Huntington’s disease gene on to Britt. The boss is supplying her with medication to control that illness. So maybe Faison developed the drug for himself and he’s using it to keep his daughter alive, keep himself alive, so she can work for him. So yeah, the bad dude may be Britt Westbourne’s bad dad.

Peter August: Could Wes Ramsey Return as Henrik Faison?

The second person to consider as the boss is Faison’s horrible son, Henrik Faison (Wes Ramsey), who is better known by the name Peter August. And yes, he’s also dead. But death is not an obstacle on a soap opera. Plus, he was taken away right after he expired, so that’s open-ended to me.

Peter is Britt’s half brother, so I could see him, in his own sick way, wanting to be close to his sister but also bullying her. Peter was always desperate for Faison’s approval, but that’s something he could never have. At one point, Britt Westbourne also wanted Faison’s approval, but she figured out that that wasn’t possible.

Peter August’s Dark Influence Over Britt Westbourne

Peter wanted to get to know Britt as his sister, but he did so many horrible things to so many people in Port Charles. There’s no way that she would ever trust him. But in Peter’s twisted mind, maybe this is his way of having Britt in his life, even if he is forcing her to be there. You know, I mean, that sounds like something Peter August would do.

He wants affection and attention desperately, but he goes after it in the most diabolical way. Don’t forget that Peter August was played by Wes Ramsey, who is still dating Laura Wright, who plays Carly Corinthos Spencer. So he does have that in with Frank Valentini. He could be back.

Could Nathan West Be the Big Boss on General Hospital?

Here’s another thing to consider while we are looking at the twisted branches of the Faison family tree. What if the boss is Britt Westbourne’s other dead brother, Nathan West (Ryan Paevey)? It’d be a big shocker since, despite being Faison’s son, Nathan was a truly good guy.

Liesel made sure that Nathan did not grow up around Faison. If you remember, Nathan West was raised by his aunt Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills) and thought she was his mom and that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) was his sister.

Nathan West’s Redemption or Downfall?

Of course, Nathan West was beloved and fans hated when he was killed off. Back then on General Hospital, Nathan West was trying to save his pregnant wife Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) from Faison. But then Faison shot Nathan. That was right before Faison found out Nathan was his son and that he had killed him.

Recently, we heard a rumor that Ryan Paevey might be back to General Hospital. I was wondering if he might be someone that was resurrected and this science is being practiced on him. Maybe he’s the big boss. That’d be cool. It would be a massive twist because Nathan West was good, and the big boss is bad.

A Dark Twist: Nathan West as GH’s Newest Villain?

It could be that Britt’s brother was resurrected and turned dark or was intentionally made to go dark. I think a dark Nathan West would be amazing to see. Amazing for Ryan Paevey to play, especially if he later somehow got redeemed.

If it’s a more Faison-esque version of Nathan West, that would explain him tormenting his sister Britt, which he ordinarily wouldn’t do. I would say the only way it’s Nathan is if something’s been done to turn him villainous.

Now, if you remember, after Faison died, General Hospital’s shrink Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) had Faison’s brain in a jar to study it. That made me think about the WSB memory mapping. It’d be bizarre if it’s Faison’s memories inside of Nathan West.

Could the Cassadine Family Be Behind Britt’s Ordeal?

Now, if it’s not a Faison family member, another legacy family full of creepy characters is the Cassadines. There are plenty of dead family members that fans might enjoy seeing back. As we said, it’s not going to be Helena Cassadine because the boss is a man. A Cassadine makes sense because Liesel and Britt Westbourne both have ties to Cassadine men.

Victor Cassadine: Is He the Mysterious GH Villain?

So, they could have resurrected Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy). He’d be great. He was obsessed with Liesel. It could be Victor saved Britt Westbourne from the hook toxin and the Huntington’s because maybe Victor thinks that would get him in good with Liesel. Of course, Victor Cassadine was bombed to death by the WSB. But hey, you know, death doesn’t matter so much.

Spencer Cassadine: Could There Be a Shocking GH Comeback?

Our fifth and final idea kind of in the same vein as good guy Nathan West coming back is if they brought back Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez). Everybody would love to see Spencer Cassadine back even though Nicholas Chavez is not returning.

He’s way too busy, so the role would have to be recast. Now, Spencer is presumed dead and he generally was pretty good up to the time of his death. But first, his memories might have been mapped over with Victor Cassadine’s.

Also, Spencer had a pretty dark side as a kid. He is a Cassadine, so he’s chock full of evil genes. Also, Spencer was super close to Britt at one point. We’ll see who it is. But who are you hoping to find out is the big bad boss running the show?

Beyond the Gates spoilers for July 28th through August 1st see Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie) arguing and Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman) stepping out.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers Monday, July 28th

On Monday, July 28th, it is season 1, episode 99. I can’t believe we’re about to hit triple digits on episodes of Beyond the Gates. Dr. Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) doesn’t want to hear it, but Dana “Leslie” Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) really needs a favor from him. I wonder if it is about Eva Thomas (Ambyr Michelle) because in the promo, Leslie’s talking to Eva and her daughter says she’s tired of fighting with Katherine “Kat” Richardson (Colby Muhammad).

But Leslie says the fight has just begun because they’re sisters. I don’t know if Leslie has a sister. She’s talking about typical sibling rivalry. I know my sister and I, who’s almost a decade older than me, used to brawl. It was full on. If you have a sister, maybe you’ve been in that situation. Nobody can fight you dirty like your sister.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Kat Confides in Chelsea

Kat tells Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) that she is hiding something from Tomas “Tom” Navarro (Alex Alegria). I wonder if it is about the dirty trick she played on Eva about Ted’s license for the office that upset her dad and put her dad’s business at risk. Of course, if Kat finally confesses to Tomas and he says he already knows about it from Eva, that might really bother Kat, too.

Also, notice that after she gave up her V card to Tomas, she didn’t look happy. Like a young woman in love who was thrilled to finally make love to someone she cares about, she looked, I don’t know, regretful. Let me know what you think in the comments about that look on her face.

So Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) gets together with Regina, the mystery woman that Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) tracked down the address for, who came off the photograph that June carries everywhere. Clearly, Naomi is still looking for answers about June and who the people in the picture are and how she ended up on the streets. I will say she’s looking really healthy. I really like that actress. I think she was a great find for the show.

Exciting Milestones and Complex Relationships in Beyond the Gates Episodes

Tuesday, July 29th, season 1, episode 100. That’s three digits. It’s exciting. Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli) tries to smooth things over between Doug and Joey. I don’t know about the wisdom of what Doug is doing because he’s acting like a big man and getting up in Joey’s face when he’s the one who got them into this mess.

Now granted, Joey led Doug down that path, but he could have stopped gambling at any point. He’s an addict and was refusing to get therapy, and Vanessa is just trying to clean up his mistake. At the same time, let’s be real, she’s hot for Joey and doing the hot wifey thing all over town. This is a very weird threesome situation.

June faces someone from her past, and it looks like Naomi may bring Regina around to see her. I wonder if that maybe is her sister. We’ll see. In the promo for this week, Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) is wondering why Andre is lurking in her parents’ foyer.

Then, in a Dani moment, she asks if Andre is there to ask Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) for her hand in marriage. Is Dani joking? That’s crazy because Andre was just on a date with another woman about a week ago. I’m guessing Andre may be over there about doing some photos or videos for the Articullette reunion.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Andre Romances Ashley

Also on Tuesday, Andre and Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob) are doing something kind of quasi-adventurous. It looks like Andre has set up a little romantic station experience for Ashley. From the romance, her little hat, and the picture of the Shamsay in the background, Andre is pretending they’re in Paris together, and she is all giggly.

I don’t know if Andre is just trying to get her out of her shell so she can date better, but he has had the hots for her for a while. I don’t necessarily get it, but okay. That’s going to be a problem for Dani. Kat gripes to Ted about Leslie and Eva this week. She says they are scheming to ruin their lives at every turn. Kat is so salty. So super salty. I get it. But that’s her sister.

Emotional Drama and Family Tensions in Midweek Beyond the Gates Episodes

Wednesday, July 30th, season 1, episode 101 of Beyond the Gates. Dani is completely stunned by one of her daughters and has advice for her. I wonder if this is Chelsea coming to her about the stuff with Madison and Allison and just things getting messy. I don’t understand how Madison and Chelsea fell in love 5.8 seconds after they met.

It seems a little quick, even in the realm of soap operas. Vernon tries to calm down a very anxious Anita. Vernon was the one pushing for this Articulettes reunion from the start. Anita all along was saying no. She didn’t even want to get on the stage and sing karaoke. Now she’s about to get on stage and really sing again. Obviously, she has nerves. Vernon is going to make this happen for her.

At this point, Anita also really wants it to happen for Sharon and Tracy as well because she’s trying to do a little image rehab for doing them dirty back in the day. Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) is desperate to patch things up with Bradley “Smitty” Smith (Mike Manning) on Wednesday, and he asks his mama Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson (Daphnee Duplaix) for some help.

Family Secrets and Reunion Drama in Late Week Beyond the Gates Episodes

On Thursday, July 31st, season 1, episode 102 of BTG, Tyrell has a deep talk with Vernon. He and Samantha are very upset about what has gone on with their dads, and they don’t understand it. Hopefully, the Dupri aren’t going to tell them about the murder stuff. Dani and Nicole are busy scheming, but for good reasons, not evil ones.

It seems to be about their mom’s debut and their reunion redux. In the promo for the week, Naomi, Chelsea, Kat, and Samantha all talk about how amazing it is that their grandma was an Articulettes, and that it is mind-blowing to them. Mad respect. Meanwhile, Anita is arguing with Sharon and Tracy again. That looks like it’s just right in the moments leading up to the reunion concert.

Season Finale Spoilers: Big Steps, Honest Talks, and the Articulettes Reunion Show

On Friday, August 1st, season 1, episode 103 of Beyond the Gates. Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings) wants Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett) to take a big step away from the Dre. He’s been cleaning up their messes for a long time. Hayley’s worried about this murder thing, but at the same time, we all know Hayley is working her own agenda.

I feel like she’s trying to cut Bill off from anybody around him who might be supportive. There’s a bigger picture that we’re all missing on Hayley. Many fans have ideas about what exactly she’s up to. Derek Baldwin (Ben Gavin) gets brutally honest with Ashley, and it’s time for the big Articulettes reunion show. Anita is literally center stage, and it is going to be fabulous.

Beyond the Gates spoilers for June 2-6, 2025 see Eva Thomas (Ambyr Michelle) toying with the idea of destroying her mom and Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings) playing wicked stepmother.

As we always do on early edition day for all the soaps. We first talk about what is coming the rest of this week.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Wednesday, May 28th Drama Unfolds

On Wednesday, May 28th, we’ve got Tyrell messing up his first kiss by accusing the girl of pranking him for a social media stunt, hoping it will go viral. Looks like she wasn’t doing that, so she gets mad and she goes just as Daddy Bradley “Smitty” Smith (Mike Manning) arrives. But Tyrell won’t tell his dad or his sister Samantha why the girl stormed out.

Speaking of storming, Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) is angry after Smitty told him that Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett)’s been talking out of turn. And so he shows up over to the Fairmont Crest Country Club to throw some shade at the lawyer. Hayley does not want to hear their bickering, and she leaves the table for a few minutes. Bill really doesn’t want to hear it either, but Martin just won’t stop.

Bill calls Martin out for being a liar who has not come clean to his husband, Smitty, and Martin threatens violence on Bill. We also have that sketchy dude who was stalking Martin at Orphe Jeans who’s now masquerading as a bus boy at the country club to spy on the Dupree grandson. So, Bill threatens back because he’s got juicy leverage on Martin. And Bill brings up that fateful night, the one that’s clearly haunting Martin.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Hayley Reveals Her Pregnancy News

When Hayley returns, she reveals her pregnancy news. And Martin offers a sarcastic, slow clap. Then he insults Bill and warns Hayley to get away from the bad guy. Martin then insults Bill’s dad and he throws hands. But it turns out that a lot of that was just in Martin’s head. I just don’t like fantasy scenes like that. It just clogs things up.

Anyway, Bill lies to Hayley and says Martin’s issue is about the Dr. Ted Richardson (Maurice Johnson) affair thing and the cover up that he did. Martin takes off and the secret spy follows after him. Also, Hayley tells her ex BFF Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) that she has got Bill’s bun in her oven, but she isn’t impressed by Hayley one bit.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Chelsea Rages

Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) is there to see all of this. And Hayley is hoping that they can call it bygones because they’re all family now, but Naomi is not having it. And she takes off with Jacob. Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) is super mad that her stepmomster is having a baby with daddy Bill.

But when Hayley tells her to get used to the idea, Chelsea has a mini meltdown and storms away. So that’s two for two stepdaughters hating on her. And it turns out Bill has already started a college fund in advance of getting Hayley pregnant because of the last near miss pregnancy thing. So they’re excited about it. They could check that off the list, but literally nobody else is down for this.

Derek Baldwin (Ben Gavin) wants to give Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob) back her key, but she wants him to keep it only in case of emergencies. Turns out they’re still dating, but not cohabitating. Naomi and Jacob show up, and Ashley says that they do love each other, but she and Derek just can’t live together.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Smitty Confronts Martin

Meanwhile, Kat calls Jacob and he waits for her at Orphe Jeans because she’s got stuff to tell him. Smitty confronts Martin about lying about where he was gone to and his hubby actually admits, “Okay, fine. I went to see Bill”, but Martin keeps on lying to Smitty about why he went to see him. And then Martin drops the Hayley bomb baby bombshell to distract his hubby Smitty. And guess what? It works.

So Martin and his husband know that Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) is going to blow up when she finds out. And guess what? That’s happening on Wednesday as well. So Chelsea trots over and tells her mom, Dani, that Hayley is pregnant. And Dani is wondering if Hayley got knocked out by somebody else and cracks an AARP old guy joke about her ex-husband Bill.

Then Dani suggests that Hayley is faking the pregnancy for some kind of monetary gain. And then Dani suggests Hayley is faking orgasms too, which icks out Chelsea. She doesn’t want to hear anything about it. Hayley and Bill head home from the country club. And when Bill goes up to make a work call, Dani walks in the door to confront her.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Thursday, May 29th Confrontations and Schemes

Thursday, May 29th, we’ve got Dani wanting Hayley to go pee on a pregnancy test stick while she’s there to witness it because Dani thinks Hayley is lying and faking. Dani warns Bill about making babies with his hussy wife. And I’m sure she’s going to throw shade like she did while talking to Chelsea about Bill being too old for kids, etc.

Doug is furious at Joey, who he now realizes set him up and deliberately used him to get to Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli). And Joey brings Vanessa to his casino and rigs it for her to get a big win. And then Joey takes Vanessa to his office while she’s on that gambler’s high and rips off her clothes. Will Doug find out what they did?

Jacob meets Kat to discuss the ongoing case of Lara being run off the road. And Kat suspects it’s Eva but signs are now pointing more firmly to insane Leslie. And at the law office, Naomi stops by to flip out on Bill and wonders if her dad expects her to throw her stepmomster Hayley a party.

No one is excited about this baby except Bill and Hayley on Beyond the Gates. Leslie tries again to get Ted in the sack. And when she’s got her hands on him this week, Kat walks in on Ted looking way too close to Leslie and totally loses it.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Friday, May 30th Secrets and Stealing

Friday, May 30th, Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie) worries her past actions will cause future trauma and trouble, but her friend Tracy agreed to talk to the other Articulate about a reunion show with the three of them. Ted wants so badly to reconcile with Nicole. But if Kat tells her mom that Ted was alone with Leslie well, that’s going to be a big problem.

Meanwhile, Eva sneaks into Leslie’s apartment to steal her mom’s motorcycle helmet and gloves to use against her. But will Eva hand it to Jacob the cop, her detective half-sister Kat, amateur detective? Or just keep the goods to blackmail Leslie and try and keep her in line? Her mom realizes they’re gone and she blows up at Eva.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: June 2nd through 6th Legal Trouble and Payback

June 2nd through the 6th, we’ve got Leslie possibly facing arrest because Kat is closing in on her for not only the crash, but the potassium poisoning at the hospital. Jacob is still pushing and investigating, and Eva stealing hard evidence that could indict crazy Leslie are all very problematic.

Smitty keeps digging into Martin’s dirty secret because he knows his husband’s telling him lies. And with Bill getting tired of Martin making scenes, who knows what he might say to Smitty because Bill has got all the power in this deal. But Martin keeps pushing his buttons.

Anyway, Kat’s not going to give up until she takes down Leslie and gets her out of her mom Nicole and her dad’s Ted life once and for all. Doug wants payback on Joey, but he’s got no money, no leverage, no power, no mob connections like the casino owner has. Doug is literally risking his life by pushing back on Joey too hard.

Beyond the Gates Spoilers: Doug Comes Clean?

Will Doug do the one thing that he can do and come clean to Vanessa about the debt and tell her that Joey did it to him on purpose to make the casino owner look like the bad man that he really is? And by then, since Vanessa shagged him, will she even care?

Hayley was hoping that having Bill’s baby would put her into the mainstream. And get her more accepted in the social sphere of Fairmont Crest, but it might do just the opposite and further alienate her. Dani will make sure she makes it even harder on Hayley.
