Beyond the Gates Daily YAPP Recap, May 9: Dani goes on the warpath

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

Today, Dani went on the warpath and did what Dani does best: she took a situation and made it worse with her reactions. Dani’s sister Nicole has her heart broken by her husband Ted, and it’s up to little sister to go raging because her sister can’t. You’d think that Dani would go straight around to Ted’s place and read him the riot act, but don't worry. She does, but first, she needs to take her anger out on her ex. Bill, of course, was the man that Ted called to ‘fix’ his problem.

That problem was the woman with whom Ted had an affair and subsequently got pregnant. Dani arrived at Bill’s place and insulted Hayley by saying that the grown-ups must talk. That's funny, but Bill should have put her in her place right there. Dani went off at Bill for being a part of destroying her sister's world. Bill made a defense that was worthy of Boston Legal’s Alan Shore. Bill said that once again, the Duprees called on him to make a problem disappear, and he had to get his hands dirty so the precious Duprees could remain squeaky clean.

Bill went on to explain that it was made very clear at the start of his relationship with the Duprees what was expected from him, and if Dani didn't like it, she could take it up with the ringmasters, the great Vernon and Anita Dupree. Now I bet that was a piece of information that Dani didn't know. All these years, her precious grandparents were the ones who had Bill on retainer to take care of all the messy problems they had over the years, and if Dani thinks his involvement with Ted is wild, wait til she hears about Martin. And that's exactly what Anita and Vernon are afraid of.
