It’s also Big Teak’s funeral, the stress of which is causing some issues between Lil Murda and Uncle Clifford, despite them becoming closer than ever last week. It isn’t entirely clear where this is going, or if it’s going anywhere at all, but I’m finding it increasingly difficult to believe that these two won’t be in the middle of some major drama before the season is over. This kind of behavior implies that she isn’t exactly stable, but the casualness with which she goes about it - and the fact she’s literally named after it - implies she’s been dancing with the devil a fair amount. When Terrance tries to underpay because he was unhappy with the service, Roulette holds him at gunpoint, one round in the chamber of a revolver that she keeps pulling the trigger of. Whisper agrees to take money from Terrance for sex, but with Roulette on hand as security. The specific type of no good that they’re up to leads to an odd subplot in “The Death Drop”, where we come to understand why Roulette is called that. Uncle Clifford and Hailey are still at each other’s throats, Mercedes seems to be suddenly past her sell-by date, and Whisper and Roulette are up to no good. So, Keyshawn is able to convince Derrick to allow her to return, even though she returns in the midst of some serious drama. People will come out in droves to see Miss Mississippi, which will help to repair both the club’s social standing and give Keyshawn the cash she needs to flee. But to buy her way out, Keyshawn needs capital, and the best way to get it is by headlining at the Pynk. Hailey is also, meanwhile, helping Keyshawn to escape from Derrick’s clutches by providing her and the kids with new passports. Depending on who wins the race, it might not be worth anything at all. They’ll have to go to the polls to see if the club is going to be a viable big-money sale. And of course, who sits in the mayor’s seat is going to determine the future of the Pynk, since Hailey refuses to accept Georgie’s lowball offer of five million since she’s still adamant about it being worth ten.
This seems to give Patrice a much more viable bid for Chucalissa’s throne.
This is good for neither Andre’s image - a parent due to be executed by the state is never a good sign - or his reputation. But the Kyles have played a chess move against Andre by revealing, in a very public way, that his birth father is very much alive, contrary to his claims, and on death row. After Andre emerged as a relatively uncontroversial candidate, a local-boy-done-good back to continue a pre-existing legacy, he seemed like the front-runner over Patrice’s particular brand of fire and brimstone religious rhetoric. What’s arguably the main plot thread here is the mayoral race, since whoever controls Chucalissa also, by extension, controls the Pynk, and virtually everyone’s fates are entwined with the club.
