Beyond The Gates Recap: The Duprees Prep For The Articulettes Reunion

Beyond The Gates Recap: The Duprees Prep For The Articulettes Reunion originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's Beyond The Gates recap: Fairmont Country Club: Vernon notices Anita is agitated, and she says she's in a panic in anticipation of going back on stage. She worries she's going to embarrass herself and the entire family. They await her agent's arrival as Vernon does his best to boost her ego. He arrives and says he has a proposition and asks if she would consider singing a solo. Anita says she couldn't as the spotlight belongs to all of them. Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Chelsea arrives to see the grands when she runs into Tracy and Sharon. Chelsea is thrilled and wants to record them for content. Just then, their seamstress arrives but Chelsea is less than thrilled with their outfits. Sharon and Tracy ask for the truth and Chelsea says they will be very familiar to their established fan base. If they want to attract a younger audience, they need to be a little more spicy and electric. The seamstress agrees to help and they get to work. As if no time has passed, they have new outfits for the evening's concert. Sharon and Tracy freak out a bit because they didn't consult Anita but Chelsea thinks she will love the changes. Chelsea puts a wrapped box in front of Sharon and Tracy as it's a part of hers and Kat's next launch. Chelsea begins shooting and asks about what the duo has been doing since the Articulette's dissolution. Sharon and Tracy tell their stories and the two say they've stayed close as sisters all these years. Chelsea shifts to her grandmother and asks how they kept close sisterhood with her. Dani's Place: Naomi arrives to see her mother who is nervous about the possibility of returning to the runway. Dani gets snarky about her daughter's wardrobe and thinks she should change. Naomi wonders if her mother has something with enough coverage to hide the marriage ending secret she's hiding from Jacob. Dani excitedly asks if she can know when her daughter says she's talking about Martin. They discuss the horrible situation but Naomi says she' s'more horrified her father had a man murdered. That information stops Dani dead in her tracks. Naomi tells her mother everything about her father's connection to the dead man in the park. Dani doesn't know how to feel and is infuriated by her family's inconsistent truth telling. She means no shade towards her daughter but can't understand why Naomi was trusted and not her. Naomi says it's because her husband is a cop and they thought she could keep him from digging to deep. Dani asks if Naomi has spoken to Bill since she found out all the details. She says no neither to her father nor husband. Dani says she is not allowed to have marriage problems over this situation when she and Jacob are the last couple standing. Nicole's Pad: Martin and his mother get down to the business of processing his trauma. Nicole tells him to say whatever comes to his mind like he's telling a story. She promises not to judge and hopefully provide insight. Martin says his top priority is saving his marriage and keeping his family together. Nicole asks what it was like for Martin to have two men try to take his power and possibly his life. Martin says he was the one who took a life. Nicole notes that event made him feel powerless to tell the people who could have supported him. He knows his granddad was trying to do the right thing by covering up the whole thing. Nicole isn't so sure as humans who love someone can have the best of intentions with terrible impact. Martin realizes he tried to save his grandfather's life. He shielded the truth from Smitty so he would still look innocent in his eyes. Martin knows Smitty didn't kick him out because of the blood on his hands but the years of lies. He asks his mother how he gets himself back home. Nicole tells her son to take baby steps. She asks about his nightmares, and he indicates his nights are still sleepless. Nicole begins to take her son through some breathing exercises when Dani arrives like a bull in a china shop to turn their frowns upside down. Nicole is mortified she forgot about her mother's concert. Martin can't think about having a good time but Dani encourages both of them to compartmentalize. Dani brought outfits for both of them but Martin says he can't and Nicole concurs. Dani lights into both of them about being petulant teens and convinces them to do their duty. Kat and Chelsea's Digs: Kat and Samantha discuss creating some content for the company. Kat thinks they should do some 'day in the life' videos starring Samantha and their purse products. As she describes the videos, Samantha slips far away. Samantha says she's having issues about her dad and pop. Kat is clearly confused and Samantha says to take a seat. Kat can't believe Martin and Smitty broke up and no one told her. Samantha assumes they didn't want to bother her with her new business and boyfriend. Kat recalls seeing Martin earlier and going on and on about her own issues without inquiring at all about his. Samantha thinks her pop is used to hiding everything from everyone. As someone whose parents' marriage just went to hell, Kat hates burdening Samantha with work. Samantha says it's like a vacation from the trial and tribulations of her current life. Naomi arrives to see Chelsea but Kat says she's not there. Kat indicates Chelsea went to convince Gran to do some social media content prior to the concert. Naomi takes a seat and asks Samantha how she's holding up. Her cousin is holding up and she says devastated with most of the family couples in crisis. Kat thinks Naomi and Jacob need to teach the children the secret to a happy marriage. Naomi flips the script and says they need to concentrate on their Gran and her big night. Smitty and Martin's Place: Smitty talks to Tyrell about the concert and how he'll drop him off and pick him up. Tyrell wants him to come to the concert as grand will not be happy if he doesn't show. Tyrell asks Smitty to help him pick clothing. He still wants his dad to come as he loves the jazz music only her biggest fans know. Smitty still isn't convinced when Tyrell says he's disappointed by his dad backing away from a tough situation… maybe he's been looking up to the wrong person. Smitty thinks Anita's concert is neither the time nor place but Tyrell disagrees. Smitty thinks all the Duprees will hate him for kicking out Martin. He declares he's simply not going. Tyrell says his call and consequences. Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Vernon and Anita arrive home as Chelsea continues to interview Sharon and Tracy. Anita listens in as her bandmates say she is their third sister that married well and moved to the fancy part of town. They get serious saying they went through all kinds of things together which has made them family forever. Chelsea asks if the duo would mind singing something for them. Anita grins as she watches her sisters harmonize together. Afterwards, Vernon and Anita clap and enter. Chelsea ends the video by telling her followers to catch the concert that night. With that, Chelsea makes a quick exit without explaining anything about the outfit changes. Anita looks at the outfits and thinks her granddaughter is a miracle worker. Anita thanks her bandmates for giving her the chance to make things right. She says she only wishes Barbara was there with them. Sharon thinks to move on they need to let go of old baggage. They reminisce about the past, the good and the bad. Tracy says they are about to become The Articulettes 2.0. The women agree to mention Barbara in every interview they give and decide to blame Dante Green for deleting her from the group. The group decides to keep Barbara in their hearts when they go on stage that night. Kat and Chelsea's Digs: Chelsea arrives home and connects with Naomi, Kat and Samantha. She says she connected with Sharon and Tracy while Gran was out of the office. She says she got content with the ChelseaKat logo on display. She sits down with the girls and shows them the video and they are all thrilled. Previous Beyond The Gates Recap: Endings Chelsea and the girls review videos of The Articulettes and can't believe that's their grandmother. Chelsea thinks it's time for R&B to meet Gen Z. Vernon arrives to see Smitty and Tyrell. Smitty isn't sure what's going on but realizes Tyrell made this happen. Vernon realizes he and Smitty need to have a one on one. He agrees but says tonight is about Anita. Vernon agrees but hopes Smitty will put aside his anger for the night and come to the concert to support Anita. Tyrell jumps in and says his dad has to go. Anita tells Tracy and Sharon about her visit with Jim Price and says they have something to vote on. She tells them about his solo request and wanted to bring it to them before giving him an answer. She admits she told him no but wants their input. Martin thinks he will bring everyone down if he goes to the concert. Dani says Anita will eat his liver for dinner if he doesn't show. She also says there will be more speculation in the political world if he doesn't show up at his own grandmother's concert and Nicole agrees… Keep checking back for the latest Beyond The Gates recaps!
