The video preview for the upcoming week of Beyond the Gates<\/em> doesn\u2019t just tell us that Vernon\u2019s keeping secrets. It shows us. Meanwhile, Ashley walks in on a big surprise. Will she be able to handle it? And Kat can\u2019t take much more of Eva and Ted\u2019s closeness. A bigger rift between Kat and her dad seems likely.<\/p>\n Plus, the Smith-Richardsons are in crisis. And Joey has a little fun at a Fairmont Crester\u2019s expense. Something tells us that Vanessa doesn\u2019t find Joey\u2019s comments amusing. Here\u2019s the breakdown for the week of November 3-7.<\/p>\n Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n Vernon\u2019s mysterious phone call and subsequent visit suggest he\u2019s hiding something \u2014 but from whom?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Ashley discovers Derek\u2019s shocking secret in a jaw-dropping moment that changes everything.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n The Smith-Richardsons face a full-blown family crisis that could tear them apart.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Kat\u2019s fury erupts after Eva gets a little too close to Ted, widening their family rift.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Joey\u2019s biting sarcasm hits too close to home for Vanessa \u2014 and this time, the joke might be real.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Vernon (Clifton Davis) is practically whispering when he\u2019s on the phone. Even though he lives in a big mansion, he doesn\u2019t want Anita (Tamara Tunie) to accidentally eavesdrop on his plans. \u201cI know what I\u2019m doing,\u201d the retired senator starts. \u201cLet me handle this my way.\u201d Next second, he\u2019s at the door of some mysterious woman. \u201cSorry, I\u2019m late,\u201d he tells her. Who is this woman?<\/p>\n Another semi-secret phone call takes place between Shanice (Ernestine Johnson) and Derek (Ben Gavin), who is keeping his own secrets from his fianc\u00e9e. \u201cIf you don\u2019t fess up and soon, pretty sure you\u2019ll regret it,\u201d Shanice warns. She happens to be the smartest person in the DMV area.<\/p>\n Derek not only has feelings in his legs, but he can stand up on his own now, too. And he stubbornly refuses to tell Ashley (Jen Jacob). Well, the secret\u2019s out. The nurse walks right in to their apartment and catches Derek off guard \u2014 and on his feet. \u201cThis is incredible. Look at you!\u201d Ashley exclaims.<\/p>\n Ashley hasn\u2019t put two and two together yet. But she will. The weekly spoilers allude to someone\u2019s deceit<\/a>, causing trouble for two couples. This just might be Ashley and Derek, as well as Naomi (Arielle Prepetit) and Jacob (Jibre Hordges). Because guess what? Jacob knows all about Derek\u2019s fast recovery.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Smith-Richardsons are knee-deep in the middle of drama. Martin (Brandon Claybon) and Smitty (Mike Manning, who recently talked about the recent BTG Easter egg involving his TV past<\/a>) no longer have to worry about battling each other. They are facing a family crisis with Samantha (Najah Jackson). \u201cToday\u2019s your last day,\u201d Martin says. Did he lay down the law and tell Samantha that she can no longer work for ChelseaKat?<\/p>\n A despondent Samantha looks at Martin and continues. \u201cI hate you,\u201d she coldly states. That has to hurt.<\/p>\n Another family is going through major drama. Kat (Colby Muhammad) and her half-sister, Eva (Ambyr Michelle), can\u2019t be in the same room without getting into an argument, trying to one-up each other, or one sleeping with the other\u2019s boyfriend. And now Eva is calling Ted (Keith D. Robinson), \u201cDad,\u201d and Kat has had it.<\/p>\n \u201cI called him \u2018Dad\u2019,\u201d Eva explains. \u201cWell, I hope you enjoy the one daughter you have left because you can\u2019t have both of us,\u201d Kat tells her father and then walks away.<\/p>\n Finally, Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom) tells a joke that hits a little too close to home for Vanessa (Lauren Buglioli). \u201cThough I had him killed so I could have his wife all to myself,\u201d Joey states dryly, clearly trying to mess with someone at the club.<\/p>\n The look on Vanessa\u2019s face after she hears that is priceless. It\u2019s certainly not the truth, right? RIGHT? Meanwhile, BTG fans know he is telling the truth and nothing but the truth (Lindstrom and Buglioli are BTG\u2019s October 2025 Performers of the Month<\/a>).<\/p>\n This story was originally reported on Soap Hub<\/a> on November 2, 2025.
