Next week’s Beyond the Gates spoilers focus on Anita’s turbulent battle with cancer. As soon as she started that next-level chemotherapy drug known as The Red Devil, Anita’s health took a hit due to the drug’s severe side effects. She rests a lot, and her energy isn’t what anyone is used to seeing.
Bill briefly compared Anita to his own mother, who dealt with depression. To him, it looked like Anita’s light had dimmed, even though he knew it wasn’t the case. Anita still had fight in her. But will she be able to say the same with her condition worsening?
Unsurprisingly, look for the Duprees to show up for Anita and be there by her side. But this danger will take a toll on individual family members as well. Knowing her grandmother is suffering may be what leaves Kat shaken. Ultimately, Anita makes a decision about her future, and we have a feeling it’s going to be something that her family will have a tough time digesting.
In other news, Bill tells Hayley he’s had a change of heart regarding their future. There’s another confrontation between Leslie and Vernon. And Izaiah defends Eva to his mom, which means we’re finally about to meet the matriarch of the Hawthorne family! Here’s the full breakdown of what goes down on BTG during the week of March 23-27, 2026.
