Friday, May 2nd, 2025, will forever be branded a dark day for the Dupree family. What was supposed to be the highlight of the week for the Richardsons quickly became a nightmare for everyone at the Fairmont Crest Country Club. Leslie Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) came out of her hidden spot in a storage cupboard before Eva (Ambyr Michelle) could unlock her, and by that point, she was having second thoughts about this wild plan of her mother's. Dressed to impress or depress, as the case may be, Leslie walked into the main room just as her daughter Eva was telling Ted to get his wife out of there and to do it fast. Leslie made her explosive entrance, and the moment lived up to all the hype. In the most dramatic way possible, full of theatrics and grandeur, Leslie began to lay bare the dark secret that Ted (Maurice Johnson) had been hiding for many years, since Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix) was pregnant with Kat (Colby Muhammmed).

Eva tried to get people to remove her mom, saying she was crazy and had been threatening Ted and Nicole. Much to Nicole's distress, Leslie not only made it seem that Ted was going to leave his family to be with her, he also enlisted the help of one Bill Hamilton Esq (Timon Kyle Durett). Bill’s job in all of this was to run Leslie out of town and make sure she did not have the baby, and to make sure that she understood the threat of what would happen if she didn't do exactly as was told. The clincher was that Ted had no idea that he had a daughter; Leslie had told Eva that her father knew they existed and just didn't want anything to do with them. On Monday's episode, Leslie’s explosive revelations push the Duprees and Richardsons to their breaking points, sending the whole family scrambling to pick up the pieces. Leslie walked away from her daughter on Beyond the Gates, telling Eva she chose the wrong side. Nicole is heartbroken and struggling to process, the Dupree family is at a loss to explain everything that happened at the party, and Ted is lying low at a hotel. Leslie turns up at the Dupree family mansion, there to leave one last parting shot.
