In Thursday's Beyond the Gates recap, Leslie gets served in more ways than one, Eva lands a promotion that shocks the whole room and Martin’s mysterious trauma bubbles right to the surface. Kat’s scheming hits new heights as she ropes Mona into her DNA-snatching game, while Ted pulls out a surprise offer that has Eva leveling up her life faster than you can say “office manager.” And poor Martin? He’s spiraling so hard, even Nicole’s concerned.

Kat Turns Napkin Drama Into Detective Gold
Kat is not here for your accusations, and certainly not for Eva calling her out in public. When Eva dares to suggest Kat planted evidence to frame Leslie, Kat doesn’t deny it — she just deflects with a full-on roast session. But it’s what happens after the country club catfight that really steals the show. Kat decides she needs a fresh sample of Leslie’s DNA, and who better to help her get it than guilt-ridden Mona?
Mona plays the part of repentant friend perfectly, inviting Leslie out for donuts and forgiveness. But when she wipes powdered sugar off Leslie’s lip with a napkin, that sweet little moment becomes evidence in a possible arrest. Yep, they snatched DNA like it was a brunch accessory. Jacob’s horrified, but Kat’s basking in victory — especially since public napkin DNA is apparently completely legal. Sucks to be Leslie.
Eva Steps Into Her Power (and a Fancy New Office)
Eva’s world gets turned upside down — in the best way — thanks to an offer from none other than Ted. After another awkward Nicole sighting (and a cringe-worthy pep talk from Ted’s overzealous coworker Carlton), Ted surprises Eva with a job offer: step in as his new office manager while Kat takes a breather. She’s flattered, skeptical, and probably still reeling from all the recent drama, but when Ted says he believes in her, something shifts.
She’s not entirely sure how Kat will feel about it, but Eva is ready to reclaim her place in the beauty-meets-business world. She accepts the offer and even puts Carlton in his place with a warning: she runs a tight ship. Office gossip just got way more glamorous.
Martin’s Nightmares Are Getting Way Too Real
Martin can’t tell if he’s dreaming, hallucinating, or cracking under pressure — and frankly, neither can we. When a coworker stops by to talk about a local robbery, Martin’s hit with disturbing flashbacks that feel too familiar. He writes it off as a migraine, but let’s be real: he’s shaken.
He eventually confides in Nicole, who drops the shrink act and goes full concerned-mom mode. She urges him to get help from a professional who isn’t a family member, especially since these episodes are starting to feel less like dreams and more like buried memories. Oh, and let’s not forget the extra-creepy waiter at the country club who seems way too interested in Martin’s every move. We’re watching you, sir.
Ashley and Derek Are Totally Out of Sync (Again)
Ashley and Derek are giving “two ships passing in the night” vibes, and it’s not looking good. He’s bailing on her for fantasy baseball bros, she’s canceling plans with her mom just to make time for him — and they’re both pretending everything’s fine. (It’s not.)
They each talk to other people about the strain: Ashley vents to Andre, who just wrapped up his documentary and is peacing out of the hospital; Derek opens up to Naomi, who’s still processing almost losing her dad. Both Ashley and Derek are using the word “damage” to describe their relationship, and neither of them knows how to fix it. Love may still be there, but connection? Not so much.
Jacob Gets a Reality Check While Smitty Dives Into Marcel’s World
Smitty’s thrilled that Martin finally cares about his work — until he finds out his next assignment is a profile on Jacob’s oh-so-shady business partner, Marcel. While Smitty gets his journalist hat on, Jacob grabs a drink with said shady partner and immediately gets hit with a reality check: if he wants results, he might have to start playing dirty. And honestly, with Leslie prancing around untouched, he just might go there.
Jacob’s day only gets messier after Kat pulls him into her amateur detective game, and he discovers the whole napkin-DNA scheme. He’s annoyed, but also intrigued — because if the sample links Leslie to the crime scene, the case could finally crack open. Get ready, Leslie. The trap is closing fast.
