A new promotional clip for the soap opera Beyond the Gates has revealed the resolution to its recent cliffhanger, confirming the fate of Chelsea at the hands of her kidnapper, Allison. The show is set to return on September 8 after a week of reruns.
The footage confirms Chelsea will survive the ordeal. Although the previous episode concluded with Allison threatening her hostage with a knife and declaring, “If I can’t have you, nobody will!”, the new promo shows Allison in police custody.
While the immediate crisis seems resolved, the preview suggests further turmoil awaits the Dupree family. The family patriarch is shown asking himself, “Dear God, what have we done?”, hinting at significant future consequences. The clip also features a heartwarming reunion as Anita embraces her rescued grandchild, but teases a new danger as would-be rescuers Kat and Jacob appear to be headed for a serious car accident.
Speculation suggests this revealing promo may have been aired prematurely, as it spoils the hostage resolution that is expected to conclude in the show’s return episode. An earlier, more ambiguous trailer had focused instead on separate storylines involving characters Nicole, Ted, and Leslie.
