A second trailer for CBS’ upcoming daytime drama series “Beyond the Gates” dropped on Friday courtesy of TV Line, which for the first time gives a visual breakdown of characters not previously shown in previous promos.

Leading things off, we’re formally introduced to Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings), the former mistress turned fiancée of Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett) as she’s shown her potential new home within the gates of Fairmont Crest, the luxurious community where the Dupree family rule above all.

“Good luck, honey. You’re gonna need it,” humbles Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli), the high-end real estate agent showing Hayley the property as a clip shows the Duprees taking part in a toast while wearing all black to a party/celebration.

“Meet CBS Daytime’s New Neighbors” opens the tag for the promo, seemingly referencing CBS’ primetime comedy “The Neighborhood,” as it introduces several key characters, including the Matriarch (Anita Dupree, played by Tamara Tunie), the Warrior (Vernon Dupree, played by Clifton Davis), the Scorned Woman (Dani Dupree, played by Karla Mosley), the Perfectionist (Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson, played by Daphnee Duplaix), the Statesman ( Martin Richardson, played by Brandon Claybon), the Playboy (Andre Hamilton, played by Sean Freeman), the Two-Timer (Bill Hamilton, played by Timon Durrett), the Influencer (Chelsea Hamilton, played by RhonniRose Mantilla), the Advocate (Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne, played by Arielle Prepetit), the Nemesis (Dana “Leslie” Thomas, played by Trisha Mann-Grant), the Homewrecker (Hayley Lawson, played by Marquita Goings), and finally the Caregiver (Ashley Morgan, played by Jen Jacob).

The promo concludes with a cameo appearance by the “Grand Dame” Karen Huger from “The Real Housewives of Potomac,” who states, “Welcome to Fairmont Crest,” as she snaps her fingers at a reeling Hayley, who has just been slapped across the face by Dani.
