Beyond The Gates Recap: Kat and Mona Trick Leslie
On today's Beyond The Gates recap:
Fairmont Country Club: Eva arrives to check in with Kat, who is on the phone talking about her purse line. She hangs up and Eva confronts her about taking the helmet and gloves from her room and planting it at Leslie's place. Kat denies her accusations and Eva suggests she stop trying to take her mama down. She says they will both stay around until they are ready to go.
Ted runs into Carlton who asks if he managed to win back Nicole. Carlton goes on and on about Nicole when she arrives on the scene. She makes small talk and bids Carlton farewell before exiting to her yoga class. Carlton pushes Ted to make things right quickly with his wife before someone else snaps her up (Get to snapping, Carlton!).
Martin and Smitty's Place: Smitty has been assigned a new piece on a retiring police detective, Marcel Malone (Note Martin's reaction). Martin thinks it's a puff piece, but Smitty doesn't want to develop a reputation for being difficult. Just then, Zack arrives and Smitty exits. Zack says a family run business in his district was robbed and the owner was brutally assaulted. He thinks it's a good time to send out a press release highlighting Martin's commitment to fighting crime. Martin agrees and says he will reach out to the family. As Zack tells him more about the robbery, Martin flashes back to the night of his own incident. Zack continues saying folks will do anything for money which sends Martin into another flashback. Afterwards, Zack exits leaving Martin alone with his thoughts.
Uptown: Jacob and Marcel arrive and discuss a case. Marcel spots Leslie and thinks she is fine as wine. Jacob says she is a viper. He explains a bit about Leslie's connection to the Peterson case and how he is this close to collaring her.
Marcel mentions there used to be other ways to get around the rules, but Jacob wants to keep on the straight and narrow. Just then, Leslie exits
Garland Memorial Hospital: Derek and Ashley connect for the first time in a few days. He wonders if they are all good and she assures him they are. They both admit they are out of sync when Ashley gets a call to check on a patient. As she exits, Shanice enters and asks Derek what's wrong.
Andre tells Ashley about his meeting with the board about the documentary. They've signed off which means he won't be around as much. Andre makes mention of Derek which leads Ashley to fill him in on the situation.
Nicole and Ted's Home: Kat arrives to ask Mona about Leslie. Mona is still blaming herself for Leslie and Mona's presence, but Kat says to let it go. That being said, she has formulated a plan to allow Mona to help get rid of Leslie.
Fairmont Country Club: Eva and Ted take a seat. She admits she felt more useful yesterday with Laura than at the salon. It made her remember how much she loved her work with Nicole. Ted realizes they may be able to help each other. He notes how Carlton has returned, and Kat has taken a leave of absence. Ted believes Eva could do the job. Eva is flattered but can't understand how he can trust her. Ted gets it but blames Leslie for everything. Further, he wants one of his daughters in the office. They chat a bit more and Eva agrees to take the job. She does wonder how Kat will feel about the situation. Just then, Colton arrives and Ted introduces him to their new office manager.
Uptown: Derek meets up with Nicole who asks for details about Ashely. He says things are weird as they are being overly polite with one another. Naomi asks if he loves her and says that's all that matters. Derek isn't so sure, and Naomi tells him time is precious and urges him to fight for his relationship.
Orphey Gene's: Leslie arrives to see Mona. She wonders why Mona invited her. Mona apologizes for lashing out and Leslie takes a seat. Kat watches on as her plan comes together.
Mona tells Leslie she is open to hearing her out so she can get her point of view. Leslie talks about not getting over Ted and how, after Allan died, she snapped. Just then, Jacob arrives and sits in a nearby booth with Kat.
Jacob is annoyed with Kat's continued meddling. He notes how she and Leslie have a lot in common. She blows off his comparison and says she is determined to rid her family of both Leslie and Eva. Unlike Leslie, her heart is in the right place.
Mona tells Leslie she has a little smudge of something on the corner of her mouth, and she wipes it up. They go on with their conversation and Mona admits she doesn't blame Leslie for telling Ted about Eva. That being said, the way she went about it was shameful. She can't get past Leslie taking delight in Nicole's pain.
Nicole and Ted's Home: Martin arrives to see his mother and he learns about his grandmother's revisiting his past. Nicole notes something is wrong, and Martin asks for a bit of advice. He admits to having nightmares and flashbacks which are hard to describe. Martin remembers flashing lights, loud noises and screaming. He tells his mother he thinks he is losing his mind.
Nicole asks if he knows the origins, but Martin says he has no clue. He says the nightmares began far before Leslie: The Miniseries. Martin says his only real current stress is work and the kids but nothing new. Nicole asks how they make her feel and Martin says both scared and guilty. She thinks he needs to see a therapist and he promises to use one of her referrals. With that, he makes his exit.

Endings
Martin arrives and our favorite waiter/spy chases after him.
Leslie says Mona is cruel for luring her to their favorite spot only to be brutally rebuffed. After her exit, Kat thanks Mona, grabs the napkin and re-joins Jacob. She explains the napkin was disposed of in public so the chain of custody should be clean (I'm not sure that's how any of this works).

Trump Deletes and Reposts Tweet About Sydney Sweeney Several Times
President Donald Trump has been very active on Truth Social this morning, firing off posts about everything from last week's terrible jobs report to India's oil imports. But the president's post about Sydney Sweeney and Taylor Swift had to be deleted and reposted several times to correct spelling errors on Monday. And it speaks to the chaos going on behind the scenes as the president posts to social media when he's supposed to be running the country. Sweeney is currently at the center of an online debate about an ad for clothing company American Eagle. The actress talks about genetics in an ad that ends with a homophone-based joke about jeans and genes. Some people see the ad as a dog whistle to racists (including many of the racists themselves), and Trump was first asked about it on Sunday, when he learned that Sweeney is a registered Republican. The president seemed excited by the fact that a popular actress might be on his team politically and really leaned into it Monday morning with a whiny, error-riddled post that went in a few different directions on 'wokeness.' As you can see, Trump's first stab at the post about Sweeney misspelled her name as 'Sidney,' says 'flying of the shelves' rather than off the shelves, and spells the beer as Bud Lite rather than Bud Light. Miller is the brand that uses 'Lite' rather than Light. Trump deleted and reposted the screed, fixing some of the errors and expanding the section about Taylor Swift, who he claimed was booed at the Super Bowl and 'became NO LONGER HOT.' Swift was indeed booed by some people at the Super Bowl because she was there to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce. Swift was reportedly booed by Philadelphia Eagles fans, not because the billionaire singer has become unpopular. Trump also added a line, as you can see below, reading 'Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be.' The president added another line to his second post that's become extremely common in recent months: 'Thank you for your attention to this matter.' But the president deleted his post yet again, fixing his sentence about American Eagle jeans 'flying of the shelves,' without fixing the part about Bud 'Lite.' One of the questions that people often have about Trump's social media presence is how frequently he's the person actually typing it out. Trump has famously never used a computer but has previously confirmed that he's the one typing on his phone to send out many of his posts. During the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump said that he's often dictating tweets during the day and it's all his own typing at night after 7:00 p.m. But it's unclear whether he's stuck to that schedule. The pro-Trump documentary series Art of the Surge showed what it was like tweeting with Trump during a speech from Kamala Harris in the 2024 campaign, and it really appeared to be a team process. Trump would dictate to the assistant sitting next to him, but plenty of other people in the room contributed ideas and suggested their own versions of talking points to people who ran other accounts associated with Trump's campaign. It wasn't all celebrity nonsense on Monday morning. Trump also tried to address the fact that he fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics last week after the agency reported weak job creation numbers and revised down previous months. 'Last weeks Job's Report was RIGGED, just like the numbers prior to the Presidential Election were Rigged,' Trump wrote in a transparent lie. 'That's why, in both cases, there was massive, record setting revisions, in favor of the Radical Left Democrats. Those big adjustments were made to cover up, and level out, the FAKE political numbers that were CONCOCTED in order to make a great Republican Success look less stellar!!! I will pick an exceptional replacement. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAGA!' Trump fired Dr. Erika McEntarfer, the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, from her nonpartisan role on Friday, and there's absolutely no evidence she did anything wrong. In fact, more than 2,000 people work at the BLS, according to CNN, and it would have been impossible for McEntarfer to significantly alter the data without the coordination of dozens, if not hundreds, of accomplices. And, again, there's no evidence she did that. Trump just shot the messenger and wants to install someone who will make it look like his economy is doing better than it is. The newly revised numbers showed the U.S. added 258,000 fewer jobs in May and June than first reported, a bad sign for the future of the economy. Trump is an agent of chaos, firing off posts about anything and everything he sees on TV. But how do we know he's mostly reacting to whatever pops up on television? Sometimes he just says as much, like when he recently said that he's seen the starvation of children in Gaza on TV. This is a man with an entire intelligence community devoted to making sure he has the best and latest information from around the world. But he is fixated on whatever might be happening on the glowing boxes of mass media around him at all times. Trump also seemed to be talking directly to the TV on Monday when he sent a few posts about Sen. Elizabeth Warren, writing, 'Ask Pocahontas the real questions, CNBC!!!' Warren was on the financial news channel to discuss Trump's firing of the BLS commissioner, pointing out that it's extremely dangerous. Warren said Trump seemed poised to 'put in some sycophant that makes the president happy,' which clearly set him off. You'd think the job of the president would require a little more attention to world affairs and less to the criticism he's hearing on TV. But obviously, this is a unique era in American history. And none of this dysfunction is going to get resolved anytime soon.

Matilda Lutz Wields the Sword in New RED SONJA Footage, Chainmail Bikini and All — GeekTyrant
The legendary sword-wielding warrior Red Sonja is hoping to make a fierce comeback with a new movie. New behind the scenes footage and an image from the upcoming film give fans another look at Matilda Lutz in action, fully suited in the character's iconic chainmail bikini. The movie looks like it'll give us some brutal fights, striking imagery, and a reimagining of the heroine that I hope ends up being good. This reboot is shaping up to be a gritty and stylized project. The official Red Sonja Instagram account dropped an image, showing Lutz in the unmistakable chainmail, accompanied by the caption: '@matildalutz and the Iconic Chainmail bikini!!! Red Sonja out Aug 13.' In a previous interview with USA Today, Lutz revealed the deeper narrative meaning behind the armor saying it was 'used as an element of power that the emperor has over her … But then she owns it.' This version of Red Sonja draws from the Dynamite Entertainment comics rather than Marvel's original take, pushing the character in a more self-empowered and less objectified direction. Lutz emphasized this shift saying it's 'a completely different story' and that it moves away from the 'male gaze' of the original comic interpretations.' The new footage, shared by both @goldwynfilms and the film's official Instagram, teases gritty battles and sweeping vistas, all leading up to a nationwide One Night Only theatrical event. 'Be the first to see RED SONJA at our One Night Only theatrical event! Come see the she-devil on the big screen on August 13 nationwide. In the meantime, check out some behind the scenes action.' The teaser trailer already set the tone, introducing the world of the film with this official synopsis: 'Enslaved by an evil tyrant who wishes to destroy her people, barbarian huntress Red Sonja must unite a group of unlikely warriors to face off against Dragan The Magnificent and his deadly bride, Dark Annisia.' Directed by M. J. Bassett and rated R for 'strong/bloody violence,' Red Sonja will hit U.S. theaters on August 13, 2025, followed by a digital release likely arriving August 29.
