Randy isn’t thrilled when Hayley strolls into Orphey Gene’s and plops herself down at his table. He doesn’t want to be associated with what she’s done, but Hayley insists she’s going to walk away from the charges. Randy is shocked to hear that all this time, Hayley had something on the Duprees but didn’t tell him. Chelsea arrives, coming in hot. Next thing you know, slaps are being delivered and earrings are coming off, leaving June and Randy to try and come between the feuding pair. Randy gets Hayley to leave by grabbing her purse and exiting. 

Once alone in her hotel room, Randy asks Hayley about the leverage she has over Bill. She refuses to tell him and also makes it clear he’s not getting half her settlement. They negotiate until she agrees to give him 25 percent. He wants to build a new life for himself and his son. She’s fine with him going to St. Bart’s, but says he won’t be staying with her!

Anita’s Surprising Move

Anita pays Bill a visit in his hospital room, saying she’s angry that Hayley “tried to erase you like you were nothing.” She’s also angry at Bill for having blown up his family for a woman “trustworthy as a cobra.” In turn, Bill says that no one’s more furious at him than he is. Anita makes it clear he needs to focus on rebuilding his life and leaving Dani and her marriage alone. “You destroyed your family once,” she reminds him. “Don’t do it again!” Later, he calls Caroline and asks her to bring his laptop so that he can draw up his own divorce papers.

At the club, Leslie takes a meeting with Lionel — aka Anastasia’s ex-husband. He suggests that perhaps they can get her “shouse” back on track over a dinner combining business and pleasure. She makes it clear she’s “leaning into” monogamy… just as Anastasia walks up! The “ladies” are about to get into a fight when Anita interrupts and essentially dismisses Anastasia. Leslie is shocked that her nemesis defended her, but Anita simply wanted Anastasia gone. She confronts Leslie about paying Hayley’s bail. “Every now and then, there’s a glimpse, just a glimpse, of the human being buried in there,” says Anita. “But then you go and do something like this, taking 100 steps back for every one step forward!”

  

What Did Heather Do?!?

Andre tells Vernon that he’s not happy about the fact that Dani put herself in danger, especially for Bill. Vernon suggests the couple needs to talk, while Andre asks his father-in-law’s advice on Joey Armstrong!  Although Andre doesn’t come fully clean, Vernon admits that if Joey makes a promise, he’ll keep it. “But every deal with Joey comes with a cost.” The only question is when it will come due. 

Joey watches the video he got from Andre. While we still don’t see it, from what we can hear it sounds as if Heather either slit someone’s throat — literally — or ordered someone to do so. Joey is later pleased to hear that Vanessa has worked to put a little distance between herself and his sister. When Heather calls and Vanessa blows her off again (in front of Joey), The Impaler suspects her brother is coming between them… and she’s not pleased! As Vanessa is leaving the casino, Vernon arrives. He makes it clear that if anything happens to Andre, Joey will be the first person he comes to see. 

In the Final Moments

Chelsea and Dani swing by to see Bill. He insists they not press charges for Hayley having attacked his daughter… and then shocks them with the news that he’s arranging to have the charges dropped! Leslie visits Hayley and says that like it or not, they are friends for life now. Meanwhile, Andre arrives at the hospital and tells a shocked Nicole that Vanessa was carjacked!

Next on Beyond the Gates, it looks as if Leslie’s investment in Hayley — as in paying her bail — may just be working out! For more Wednesday spoilers from all five soaps, click here.
