Beyond The Gates Recap: Sharon Has Anita Shaking in Her Boots originally appeared on Daytime Confidential.
On today's Beyond The Gates recap:
Anita and Vernon's Mansion: Sharon arrives and immediately lets Anita know she's not there for small talk. Vernon walks up and Sharon greets him with a warm hug. Anita wonders where Tracy is but Sharon thinks they should chat one on one. With that, Vernon makes his exit.
Anita and Sharon get right into it. She knows she had to disassociate from her feelings in order to get where she needed to go. Anita hopes she and Sharon can put everything out on the table. Sharon can't with Anita still trying to be the one in charge when that is what ruined them. Anita says she wants to take anything Sharon is ready to throw her way. Sharon suspects it's easy to feel the heat when Anita has so much money supporting her. Anita admits to making a ton of terrible mistakes but says she has worked hard for everything she has. Sharon notes they were all talented and says she had offers to go solo but chose to stick with the group. Once Anita left, those offers dried up.
Sharon notes how rumors spread she had a drug and alcohol problem and knows Anita and Dante were responsible for spreading them. Anita claims to have no knowledge of how those rumors spread. Sharon says it doesn't change the fact that Dante did what he needed to do to elevate Anita's career. Anita wants to do the concert with the two of them to make amends. Sharon says it is too late for her to make amends or have peace of any kind.
Anita walks in with tangerines and cheese as she remembers they were Sharon's favorites. Sharon remembers they were so poor and these were the only things they could afford. They chit chat a bit about the good old days when Sharon stops her. She says she's not there to reminisce and asks how much Vernon knows about what actually happened to split up the Articulettes. Anita says he knows she and Tracy were angry about her siding with Dante but told him the rest was complicated. Sharon is not surprised to learn Anita let Vernon think everything Dante spread in the press was accurate. Further, they were never able to defend themselves because he made them sign NDAs simply to receive their final payment. Anita says she never knew, and Sharon gets it as she wouldn't return their calls.
Anita admits the pain she caused but says Sharon cannot blame her for the decisions they made together. Sharon loses her s*** and says Anita was the one who decided to break ranks. She was the one who was going to follow her dreams no matter the consequences for the rest of them. Sharon is clearly talking about two different topics when she says Anita told them they could go along with her plan or not. Anita says they did and Sharon confirms – but may God forgive them (I'll admit to being a touch confused).
Sharon wants to leave but Anita says they need to get everything out. She doesn't want to be the only one to wonder how much responsibility the bear, individually or together, for what happened (WHAT HAPPENED?!?!). Sharon is having NONE of Anita. She thinks maybe it's time everyone learns the truth about Anita, including Vernon (that look of panic on Anita's face!).
Police Station: Detective Walker arrives to speak with Jacob to help with Laura's case. He is an expert in video analysis and Jacob asks the different ways they could make a match.
Fairmont Country Club: Chelsea runs into Martin and says she they want Samantha to be the teen face of their purse line. It will allow her to be in the game without going full force. Chelsea wants to join him for lunch but Martin says he's meeting up with his dad. They move along to discuss Hayley's pregnancy. Chelsea thinks the entire situation is cringe worthy.
Martin takes a seat and the waiter (who is also following folks around) pours his coffee. He quickly makes his exit when Ted arrives. Martin says he's been thinking about how they keep secrets. He loves his father and doesn't like how he treated his mother but thinks he deserves more compassion and understanding. Martin asks how things are going with his mother. Ted thinks they've made progress but it's not enough. He now thinks Leslie is far more dangerous than anyone ever knew.
The waiter watches from a distance as Martin and Ted continue their conversation. Ted fills Martin in on his worries about Leslie having run Laura off the road and how Eva is in danger. He would love to talk to Nicole about this situation and Martin mentions possibly collaborating with Bill to get her gone, once again.
Police Station: Kat and Leslie arrive to speak with Jacob. Kat presents him with the leather jacket and the receipts, but Leslie is there purely out of curiosity. Kat begins the presentation of the leather jacket. Jacob says it could have been touched and/or worn by anyone. She moves forward with a tag from the thrift shop, a ticket for a motorcycle without a license plate, and a coffee shop receipt. Kat notes the coffee shop receipt is for a 'Cherry C' which is very similar to 'Sherry C' which is the name Leslie used when she pretended to need Nicole's psychiatric assistance. Jacob asks if Leslie has anything to say for herself. She says she does and asks how she can file for a restraining order against Kat.
Leslie is completely over Nancy Drew and her investigation. She says the 'evidence' Kat is presenting could have originated anywhere and has nothing to do with her. Leslie says the harassment has to stop and is serious about the restraining order. Kat calls her an 'arrogant bitch' before Jacob tells her to slow her roll. Leslie says she is up with no more bullying. Before she exits, she leans into Kat and says, 'That's Miss Bitch, bitch.'
Kat is over the top telling Jacob how they have all the evidence they need to put Leslie away. During her explanation, Kat says she tried on the jacket which sets Jacob off as she could just as easily be arrested for Laura's 'accident.' He notes hers are likely the only prints on the jacket and the receipts.
Orphey Gene's: Chelsea sees her grandfather working on his computer and he says he's working on a commencement address. Chelsea says he has always been good at giving young people advice. Vernon inquires and Chelsea tells him about issues with her latest relationship. Vernon is so sorry and knows rejection is just the worst. Chelsea thinks she dodged a bullet and notes the issues her mother is having with her father. Vernon understands what's happened recently but says there are a whole lot of solid examples of love all around her.
Eva's Hotel Room: Eva thinks back to stealing things from her mama's house when Ted arrives. He says he's been trying to reach out to her to discuss Leslie's accusations which is why she has been ghosting. Ted gets it saying he never believed she was the one to run Eva off the road. He says he believed her before she had an alibi. He simply believes in her. Eva defends her mother saying she was probably just trying to get under Kat's skin. Ted counters saying Eva needs to protect herself from her mother. He thinks Eva is afraid of her mother. Eva wondered if her mother could have forced Laura off the road or caused the cardiac arrest but chooses to believe her. Ted gets it but says she can come to her if she ever wants to break free from her mother. Eva tells him to be careful as her mama has a tendency to confuse what she wants with reality. They agree to watch out for each other.
Nicole and Ted's Place: (Y'all when I tell you I HOWLED when the camera first focused on that Febreze bottle!) Nicole sprays her house down with Febreze as Martin arrives to see how she is doing. He tells her about his meeting with his father and Nicole says she also spent the morning learning more about Leslie's more dangerous qualities. Martin says Ted misses her but says he would never pressure her in any way. That being said, he can't believe she has gone radio silent. Nicole says giving in would be a relief but wouldn't be real.

Endings
Anita hopes Sharon will consider her offer about the concert. Sharon thinks the concert is simply a gesture, after which she will cast them aside as she did before (Sharon ain't wrong. The plan was to possibly relaunch her solo career…). Anita says it's not what she wants. Sharon says she knows Anita even better than Vernon and will never trust her again. With that, she makes her exit leaving Anita in tears.
Vernon returns to find a despondent Anita on the sofa. He inquires and Anita indicates she couldn't convince Sharon to forgive her as she never forgave herself.
Kat arrives home and tells Martin and Nicole about her less than successful trip to the police station. She says how Jacob was less than thrilled with many of her investigative techniques. Martin sides with Jacob and Nicole tells her kids to chill out. She says they need to accept that Leslie will probably get away with everything she's done.
Detective Walker returns and tells Jacob his suspect is right at 5'7' and thinks he knows the manufacturer of the helmet and boots. Jacob asks about the leather jacket and the detective says the one in his possession (how would he know because Kat had yet to turn it in) was a match for the one in the video.
Leslie shows up at Eva's hotel room asks her what she did with her helmet and gloves. Eva gets all kinds of smug and says they are currently hidden in a much better place than her apartment. Eva says she's protecting herself as what her mama says isn't always what she does. She tells Leslie she now needs to make sure to stay on her good side.
