What to Expect on Beyond the Gates

Lucky Friday the 13th, right? Well, maybe not so lucky for Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley). In Friday’s episode, Dani publicly launches her comeback but is sideswiped by an antagonistic reporter. Not the best start, but we know Dani is one tough girl. I was starting to wonder whether this so-called reporter isn’t going to turn out to be Lynette Wise (Dominique Madison) in disguise. As a favor to Hayley (Marquita Goings) to help keep Dani’s mind occupied, will Lynette try to ruin Dani’s day? It’s hard to think of anyone else who’d take a shot at Dani, either it’s a plot piece or just todays drama, I have my fingers crossed for the former.

The Matriarch

Friday really is stepping up today, In a moment i was hopeful for but never thought would happen, Vernon is going to try to guide Kat back to being likeable again. In Friday’s episode, Anita is called on to reassure both of her daughters while Vernon and Kat have a heart-to-heart. Anita is and always has been a pillar of strength for this family and nothing stops that, not even her treatments for cancer. Dani and Nicole need their mother, and that's what they get.

The Wild Card

Ever since Dominique Madison arrived in the role of Lynette Wise, we have seen her transition from being what appeared to be an old friend and acquaintance of Hayley and Randy (Maurice P. Kerry) to a truly manipulative piece of work. Helping Hayley get what she wants helps Lynette get what she wants as well, but we mustn’t get ot twisted, this is a woman who most certainly is out for herself. In Friday’s episode, Lynette gets what she wants from Bill (Timon Kyle Durett) and Hayley. She has Hayley's ring and the house keys. What else will she take? Something to use against one or the other or both?
