Raq pushes back and denies that she had anything to do with Ronnie’s actions, telling her former adversary-turned-lover-turned-adversary again that he’s not thinking straight. She tries to explain that Ronnie was acting on his own, but that only further enrages Unique. Unique tells Raq that he’s not going to kill her yet, but he’s going to beat her at the game first before putting her down. He even brags about killing her attorney, thinking she was sleeping with him, and hitting her spots before he leaves her shaken in her home. We catch up with Lou-Lou (Malcolm Mays) and Imani at a restaurant, and he admits to sleeping with Jessica, but explains they were basically trauma-bonding over Famous’ death. Imani understands because Lou-Lou is single, he promises not to hurt her, and they seem to be back on track.

 Raq Fills In The Family, Unique Reunites With Pernessa

Following her encounter with Unique, Raq fills the family in on the latest developments. Kanan uses the moment to blame his mother for all of their problems, including his. Raq quickly reminds her son that she is the sole reason that he is still alive. Kanan storms off, and Marvin suggests that Raq needs to beat her son with a belt to get him in line. Jukebox(Hailey Kilgore) indicates that they need to start listening to Kanan because he’s “grown.” Unique finally reveals to his baby momma, Pernessa, that he’s not dead, and she jumps into his arms. Unique tells her that he believes Raq conspired with Ronnie to kill him, but Pernessa isn’t too sure about that cause Unique goes into a rage and forces her to agree with him to calm him down. Raq is still speaking with her brothers, telling them the most important thing they need to do is find out who is backing Unique. She believes the only reason she is still alive is because she is working with Stefano. Lou-Lou also expresses he’s ready to take out Unique and that excites Marvin because he is happy to see him back in the game.

Marvin Remains Loyal To Raq, B-Rilla Makes A Dumb Mistake

Raq and Marvin speak with Snaps (Wendell Pierce) and Pop (Erika Woods) about Unique’s return. They promise to keep their ears to the streets, but won’t do anything more than that because they say they are in business with Kanan, not her. Marvin and Raq also speak with Stefano, and he’s pretty sure that Unique is working with a family out of New Jersey and a local drug dealer from the state. After the meeting, Marvin suggests they take out Stefano, but Raq isn’t onboard with that idea. Marvin has a meeting with Stefano alone. The mob boss suggests that Marvin push Raq out of power because he feels that, as a woman, Raq is making bad decisions and Marvin will be a better fit to handle the situation. Marvin says nah, and remains loyal to his sister, telling Stefano never to ask him to betray his sister again. B-Rilla has grown increasingly desperate for money. He links up with some old associates to rob Lowell, the owner of the record label. Unfortunately, the robbery attempt is a disaster, leaving one of the men shot. During a studio session, B-Rilla is shocked to learn that Lowell wasn’t home at the time; it was a friend and his wife who were killed, leaving B-Rilla feeling stuck.

Jukebox Got The Juice Now

Kanan makes a pitch to Jukebox that they should team up to run their own operation, as he has noticed that she is good at manipulating people. Jukebox appreciates the comment, but she tells Kanan she only wants to find the person who killed Famous. When she returns home, Marvin approaches her about using his gun again. He decides to give it to her for protection, given the current situation. Jukebox is clearly excited to have her own piece now and decides to head out. She heads to the lesbian bar and gets the courage to hook up with a woman there. After Jukebox gets pleasured by her, the woman asks for Jukebox’s number, and she shuts her down swiftly.

Kanan Doesn’t Trust Raq

Kanan heads to his self-storage unit to make a deposit but he is pissed to learn that someone has taken his money. When he goes back to his old apartment looking for O-Cee, the two d-boys hanging out in there tell him they haven’t seen him. A pissed off Kanan goes searching for O-Cee and during his search he sees his mother handing two police officers an envelope full of money. At his new apartment, Krystal is stunned to see Kanan sitting in the dark, still clearly upset. He reveals to Krystal that he believes that Raq had Famous killed.

Raq Reconciles With Her Mother

Marvin and Lou-Lou are both overlooking their dying mother. They both talk about her asking them to kill her while sharing stories. Raq shows up, and Marvin reveals to her what Stefano told him. He also suggests that she should go into Joyce’s bedroom and spend some time with her during her last days. They share a moment talking about the time she got the neighborhood kids to bring their dogs to Raq’s 5th birthday party. Raq tells her mother that it was one of the nicest things her mother has ever done for her. In return, Raq does the deed as they both shed tears, and the episode comes to a close.
