In the June 19 episode of Beyond the Gates, Chelsea turned to her dad for legal help involving her new purse line. Jacob tracked down June’s things, and she got the picture of those two kids back. which is all she wanted. Kat continued to pursue ways to speed up Leslie’s DNA test results. Smitty’s investigation is getting him closer to potentially finding out Martin’s secret. Oh, and “Kenneth,” that shady busboy haunting and hounding Martin is getting creepier and creepier, and bolder by the minute.
The Shady Busboy
Vernon (Clifton Davis) needed to assess Kenneth (Jason Vendryes), the busboy, for himself. So, at the country club, he tried to talk to the man. Kenneth wasn’t just creepy and shady, he was rude and on Juneteenth no less! We need to find out about this guy sooner rather than later.
Most of all, he stayed mysterious, but Vernon sensed this guy was present at whatever had happened two years ago. That night sounds a bit terrifying, considering it’s affecting Martin (Brandon Claybon) so much.
Who did Vernon call at the end of the episode? Our first guess would be Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett), but the guy is laid up recuperating after his mini-stroke. Still, Bill is an essential element of the story since he was, once again, in fixer mode.

The Shady Cop
We now know that Kenneth was probably involved in what happened two years ago. Someone else there that night? Jacob’s grumpy sometime partner Marcel Malone (Darryl W. Handy). The guy isn’t digging how much digging Smitty (Mike Manning) is doing into his background. And as a result, Smitty is now on his and Chief Elon’s (Malachi Malik) radar.
Smitty even took a look at Malone’s financials, which included sketchy deposits, a house in the Caribbean, and a boat. Before, he was just getting by as a cop. Now he’s living his best life, and he’s due to retire soon. So he doesn’t need anything nefarious popping up and making his life difficult.

Were the Duprees the ones responsible for the $500K deposit? Smitty is getting closer and closer to crashing into Martin’s secret. Too bad Martin doesn’t have the sense to tell his husband now before the truth can do damage to their marriage.
Meanwhile, Marcel and Elon are not feeling Smitty, and they might have to do something to throw the investigative reporter off their scent. Because this seems like a cover-up that the police know all about. Furthermore, Smitty is also making dangerous connections between Marcel and Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom). Could Joey be involved that night as well?
And who did Smitty call? What if Smitty and Vernon both called Bill? What did you think of Thursday’s BTG? Let us know in the comments.
