Welcome to the Beyond the Gates Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What Happened on Beyond the Gates

Another day of drama on your fave new sudser, Eva heads back home after spending the night sleeping rough in her car. Leslie is at home chopping a banana, menacingly like some phallic destruction is raging in her mind. After hearing knocking at the door, Leslie discovers Eva, and she looks like she has been dragged backwards through a cactus. Eva defends her actions as not wanting to make a public spectacle of Ted and Nicole's anniversary party. Leslie immediately goes on the warpath and tells her she chose the wrong side, blah blah blah, and how could she, when that man (Ted) didn't want to know her, didn't care about her.

This is where Eva rips into her mom, saying that it was because of her, she lied to Ted and lied to her, and that was all on her. Leslie walks away and returns with a suitcase, telling Eva she packed it for her, and can't live with someone she doesn't trust, and to see Ted, and maybe she can be a consolation prize after losing everything else... This whole scene is a daytime Emmy conversation. Eva leaves amidst many tears and sobs and goes to the one person who might not turn her away. Ted. After a tense moment, he takes Eva in and tells her that he’s going to get her a hotel room at the same hotel and later an apartment close by if she wants to stay. Ted says that it’s not to be taken as forgiveness, as it’s not. It’s him trying to make good on past wrongs. Nice moves, Ted.
