Past the Gates might have a bit twist coming quickly associated to little Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings), or no matter that con girl’s actual title is, who’s cooking up a plot to kill her husband. I simply surprise if pregnant Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) might unintentionally bust her stepmom’s homicide plot vast open.
I need to speak about how Hayley may get outed for plotting homicide along with her cousin Randy Parker (Maurice P. Kerry)
Past the Gates: Hayley the Con Artist
All proper, let’s speak about it. I’ve stated many instances right here, and I do know a few of you within the feedback are likely to agree, that I believed Hayley was operating a really lengthy con. I stated some time again that I believed she wormed her manner into Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) and Invoice Hamilton’s (Timon Kyle Durrett) household with the intent of breaking them up and inflicting issues.
Nonetheless, I had puzzled if Hayley infiltrated the household to tear it aside for some form of vendetta in opposition to Invoice, as a result of we all know he’s received no morals and no scruples. I used to be questioning if he did one thing dangerous to somebody in Hayley’s household, however no, nothing so fascinating after she had that dialog with Randy. Hayley’s simply in it for the Benjamins.
Unraveling Haley’s Lengthy Con: A Plot for Revenue, Not Revenge
She and Randy have been operating cons. Hayley has been the first particular person, however Randy’s been helping her. I’ll say this looks like a giant trouble on this case with Invoice. It took Hayley manner over a 12 months to get in there, get near the household, bang Invoice, get him to go away Dani, and eventually marry her. That’s a complete lot of effort over an extended interval, and he solely by the way determined to take out the $10 million life insurance coverage. This isn’t a well-thought-out con, and it’s taken manner too lengthy. Hayley most likely might have run three or 4 different cons in that very same time interval.
Even Randy commented to Hayley that this one was taking fairly a very long time—the entire Invoice mess. Not solely that, however how do you run cons like this repeatedly in your individual yard? She had driver’s licenses and passports, however then she’s sitting the place she’s from, apparently. Hayley was speaking in regards to the different identities and all that. In the meantime, Randy’s her cousin. Simply to remind you, he was good associates with the lately lifeless Doug McBride (Jason Graham) and had been since they had been college youngsters, a minimum of again to highschool. But when I recall the dialogue, even sooner than highschool.
Questioning the Conspiracy: Plot Holes in Haley and Randy’s Scheme
With him and Randy being so shut, are we to imagine that Doug by no means met his cousin Hayley or no matter her title is? Since Doug grew up across the DMV, which means Randy did too. And presumably, Hayley did as nicely. I really feel like this can be a massive, gaping plot flaw until they lay it out for us and clarify it. Like perhaps Randy and Hayley are distant cousins and he or she didn’t develop up within the DMV, and perhaps Randy advised Hayley, “Hey, come up right here. There’s lots of wealthy fools and you are able to do your factor up right here.”
At any fee, this week, Randy and Hayley have a few issues of their massive “kill Invoice for the life insurance coverage” plan. To begin with, Randy and Hayley are chatting and scheming at Uptown, and Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli) and Dani stroll in and see them collectively. After all, Vanessa is aware of his actual title, Randy Parker, as a result of he’s a buddy of hers and lifeless Doug’s.
However Dani remembers him because the man who took Hayley to the hospital when she had that supposed, however now we all know faked, miscarriage at Uptown again in early August. So Dani says his title is Sammy, and Vanessa’s actually confused and he or she’s like, “No, that’s Randy, Doug’s buddy.” It seems like Vanessa might point out this encounter to her mattress buddy prison Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom) as a result of then he turns round and is grilling Randy, asking what he’s doing with Invoice Hamilton’s little wifey.
The Poisoned Cupcake: How a Being pregnant Take a look at Might Expose a Homicide Plot
But in addition, there’s a hospital hitch tied to Naomi that might come into this scheme to actually blow issues out of the water. When you bear in mind, Hayley had Randy get her some form of drug, a toxin, a poison to kill Invoice. She put it in a cupcake after which advised him it was gluten-free, sugar-free, and so forth., to mainly clarify why it tasted like crap. However Invoice swapped it and he ate a yummy, full-fat cupcake. Naomi took a giant chew of the poisoned one earlier than Hayley freaked out and form of snatched it away, slapped it away.
Proper after that, abruptly, Naomi headed over to the hospital and advised Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob) she suspects she’s pregnant and he or she did a house being pregnant take a look at. Ashley stated, “Oh, these are actually correct.” It form of doesn’t make sense for Naomi to go over there and get a blood being pregnant take a look at on the hospital as a result of she’s not planning on getting prenatal care. She is seeking to terminate her being pregnant. It simply doesn’t form of jive with the place the plot is. That’s why I think this take a look at goes to tie again to the Hayley plot to kill Invoice and money that massive insurance coverage examine.
From Blood Take a look at to Betrayal: Will Lab Outcomes Reveal the Toxin?
Ashley advised Naomi that the being pregnant take a look at wouldn’t come quick as a result of it’s routine and Ashley can’t put a rush on it because it’s not pressing. We’re two weeks away from the start of November sweeps, which kicks off October thirtieth. So these take a look at outcomes might come again in November sweeps in a giant manner. Once more, Ashley stated she will be able to’t put a rush on it. It’s not pressing. So she went forward and took Naomi to get the take a look at, and I ponder if one thing turns up that raises an alert.
Often, a blood being pregnant take a look at is a optimistic or a adverse, however they could be scripting this the place they take a look at for extra than simply the being pregnant hormone, discover an anomaly, and do a follow-up take a look at. Often, they’ve extra blood than they should do a take a look at. That manner, if one thing occurs, they will rerun it with the identical pattern.
The lab might discover Hayley’s toxin from the cupcake in her bloodstream. That doesn’t imply Naomi will instantly suppose, “Oh, it should be from that cupcake.” The opposite query is whether or not no matter Hayley put within the cupcake might trigger Naomi to have a miscarriage. Might the miscarriage faker really trigger an actual miscarriage? That might be wild.
Analyzing the Narrative: Is the Blood Take a look at the Final Plot Machine on Past the Gates?
Naomi and Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) are arguing this week, and Naomi is making it clear once more that she actually doesn’t need the newborn and reminds Jacob he knew she by no means needed kids and he stated he was cool with it. Recent off killing Doug, I don’t suppose the writers are actually going to kill Invoice. Plus, with Hayley now plotting homicide, it looks like her time needs to be up. Then once more, she may get away with it as a result of Dana “Leslie” Thomas (Trisha Mann-Grant) hasn’t ever paid for making an attempt to kill Laura on Past the Gates. So, we’ll see the way it goes.
It appears unusual to me storyline-wise to have it written of Naomi leaping up and deciding she wants a blood being pregnant take a look at proper after consuming a few of that tainted cupcake. Once more, why get one other take a look at when she just about advised Jacob and Dani she’s most likely not going to hold on with the being pregnant? If Naomi goes to terminate, then they may test it out on the abortion clinic earlier than they do the process. She doesn’t must go to the hospital and get any form of prenatal testing or care earlier than she has a termination. That’s not typically how issues work.
So, we’ll see. However relying on what the drug is that Randy received and Hayley used within the cupcake, Naomi might lose that child earlier than she decides as soon as and for all to finish the being pregnant. Nonetheless, regardless of the way it works out, miscarriage or not, I do suppose this blood take a look at that Ashley ran on Naomi might come again round to chew Hayley in her perky little butt.
