When Dani starts acting calm, you know we're in trouble. On Wednesday's episode of Beyond the Gates, Martin explodes (in his imagination, at least), Dani cooks up conspiracy theories hotter than Hayley’s flat iron, and poor Tyrell fumbles his shot at love like he’s never watched a rom-com. Let’s dive into this wild BTG recap where emotional restraint was clearly left off the guest list.

Martin Finally Grows a Backbone — Sort Of
So, Martin took a break from pretending he has no spine and decided to confront Bill at the country club. Why? Because Bill had a sneaky little convo with Smitty — you know, Martin’s husband — and Martin was not having it. He charged in like he was starring in his own courtroom drama and gave Bill a verbal smackdown: “Are you out of your damn mind?” Honestly, Martin, that’s the first sensible question you’ve asked all season.
Bill, ever the gaslighting puppet master, reminded Martin that the Dupree family is still shackled to his favors. And just when Martin was about to explode into a full-on table-flipping rant — spurred by Hayley’s pregnancy bomb — we realize it was all in his head. In reality, he slapped on a fake smile, congratulated Hayley, and walked out like nothing happened. Congrats, Martin. You finally stood up to Bill… in your daydreams.
Tyrell Fails the Vibe Check with Jessica
Meanwhile, Tyrell decided it was the perfect moment to hit the self-destruct button on his almost-romance with Jessica. One minute they’re making out, and the next he’s accusing her of pitying him and pulling some kind of mean-girl prank. Tyrell, sweetie, this isn’t middle school — maybe take the compliment and the kiss?
Jessica wasn’t sticking around for his downward spiral. She shut it down with a spectacular mic drop, calling him “toxic, insecure trash” before making her dramatic exit. And just as Tyrell’s night couldn’t get worse, Martin came home to Smitty, who already knew Martin lied about his plans.
Dani Goes Full Dani and It’s Glorious
Back at Dani’s place, Chelsea showed up ready to break the baby news gently. But Dani? Oh, she was too busy plotting her Instagram redemption arc to notice. Once the word “pregnancy” finally landed, Dani stayed chill — suspiciously chill. So naturally, she launched into a wild theory: What if the baby isn’t even real? What if Hayley is faking it to secure her trophy wife status?
Dani was on one, tossing out accusations like she was handing out flyers. But Chelsea wasn’t letting her mom disappear into delusion. She forced Dani to consider what’ll happen when a real baby shows up in nine months. And how did Dani handle it? By breaking into Hayley’s house — sorry, waltzing in uninvited, thanks to Bill’s weak security system. She didn’t come to offer warm wishes, oh no. She came to go full soap opera villain, and honestly, we’d expect nothing less.
Derek and Ashley Try Grown-Uping Again
While all the Dupree drama boiled over, Derek and Ashley were off trying to remember how to relationship. Their low-budget dinner at Orphey Gene’s was actually kinda sweet. Derek tried to give her back the apartment key like some symbolic gesture, but Ashley wasn’t having it — he’s still her ride-or-die, even if they’re a mess.
They agreed to figure things out together, imperfections and all. Naomi and Jacob dropped in just in time to validate their love journey with the kind of support every couple needs — the “we were a mess too, and look at us now” reassurance. Love may not be easy, but it’s certainly easier when no one’s blackmailing anyone… unlike certain other people on this show.
