In the January 5 episode of Beyond the Gates, Tomas made Kat feel guilty for not telling him about Anita’s cancer diagnosis and how she, too, may be at risk. Tomas also dropped a truth bomb on Jacob about dealing with Kat amid a family crisis.
Key Takeaways
- Kat stands her ground with everyone but her boyfriend.
- Tomas makes a bold statement about his girlfriend.
- Will anyone get through to Kat?
Here’s What Happened on BTG
Kat (Colby Muhammad) was dealing with a hangover following her tequila-filled binge drinking day. Tomas (Alex Alegria) arrived with a green hangover remedy guaranteed to make her feel better.
Things took a turn when Tomas mentioned that Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett) told him that Anita (Tamara Tunie) was diagnosed with breast cancer. Tomas also brought up how Kat didn’t want to get tested to see if she had the BRCA, should Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix) test positive for it.
Tomas made Kat feel guilty for not confiding in him, even though she admitted she’s simply trying to process it all herself. Kat needed to figure out how he felt before explaining herself to her boyfriend or anyone else.
While he said he understood, Tomas reminded Kat that it’s in her best interest to get tested. At Kat’s request, Tomas dropped it and agreed to leave her alone.
Why It Matters for Kat and Tomas
Not only did Tomas attempt to pressure Kat, but he also made Kat not letting him know about Anita’s cancer and the BRCA testing, all about him. Tomas wanted to be in the know, rather than focusing on how the situation was impacting Kat.
The one good thing Tomas did was leave when Kat asked to be alone. However, that may have been more about him than her, too.
After all, at the club, Tomas admitted to Jacob (Jibre Hordges) that he finds it hard to be a supportive boyfriend in Kat’s time of need. This indicates whether Tomas can or will be the shoulder Kat needs during this family crisis.
The Fallout for Kat
Along with the fact that Tomas has raised red flags about his inability to handle what’s going on with Kat, he was one more person pressuring her to get tested. Kat has enough people, like Nicole and Chelsea (RhonniRose Mantilla), telling her what to do.
What Kat needs from her boyfriend is a sounding board and someone giving her space to come to terms with reality on her own. Tomas doesn’t appear to be that person, but rather someone all about himself.
Let us not forget that Tomas was two-timing Kat with Eva (Ambyr Michelle) for quite a while. Yes, Eva was at fault too, but there’s something about Tomas that doesn’t add up, and we think Kat’s about to be duped by him again.
Will Tomas prove us wrong and be there for Kat, or is she headed for a heartbreak?
