The Haves and the Have Nots: The Right Medicine (4x03)

It didn't feel like I was watching The Haves and the Have Nots tonight. More like Filler House. This episode was just full of filler. Usually it's not really that bad of a thing with Tyler Perry because he's always coming up with new ways to throw the audience off or shift moods for an upcoming tide. Take the filler episode of If Loving You Is Wrong. We just saw Marcie and Brad go into the shed to sleep together so there was that to look forward to. Even though the episode was boring, tensions were high because you knew the shocker waiting for you in the episode. Can't say the same for this episode of The Haves and the Have Nots. So far this season just doesn't seem like it has any direction that it's taking.

Quincy's ass is really still alive? I knew this was going to be a slow, slow burn. We've been in the same night for three episodes now so it seems that a lot of time has passed by but we're still in the same night we were on back in September. Quincy is trash, taunting Candace while he's essentially choking on his blood. The scene was just so dragged out. The only positive thing that I think came from it was a wonderful acting moment from Tika Sumpter where she recounts the times he beat her up and pimped her out to his friends. By the end of the episode he was passed out again, I'm still not convinced he's dead because...well, this is Tyler Perry. Before he passes out though, he reveals Little Q needs some kind of medicine that he won't give up unless she calls an ambulance for him...which clearly Candy didn't do. Also, Quit's monkey hood rat ass is back. There's a tracker in Quincy's phone so when some guy named Daelon comes back they're going to track him. So...Candace will essentially be fucked.

Now we're on to this bullshit. Okay, so judging from the teaser for this episode it kind of looked like Jeffrey was gonna get a little action from Officer Justin the way he was feeling up on him. And by action I mean like action that didn't involve Justin telling him about 73 times how disgusting he was. It all started off "innocently" enough, with him pulling Jeffrey out the car saying that he was going to pat him down...I mean, I didn't think anything of it really until he started really slowly patting down Jeffrey's lower thigh and asking about "what kind" of friend Candace was and if they had sex. When Jeffrey answered no, Officer Justin was all "of course not, because you're gay." Look look look look, this is where I thought Jeffrey was gonna get some action from the fine white man because he started squeezing up on him afterwards but no. He then goes on about how he can't stand "you queers" and the scene just gets more and more uncomfortable from here on out. It was like the worst porn scene you could ever think of times 12. From there Officer Justin starts feeling himself and really, really sticking it in his head how much he wants him or whatever bullshit. To be fair, Jeffrey wants some, but like, Justin is just the worst at this point. After this has to be the most uncomfortable I've felt watching this show, like, ever. He gets in the backseat and asks what he does with guys, he bets it's "disgusting," demands he tell him what he does with guys with "those lips" and.........for the life of me I don't know why Tyler Perry chose this line to put in. He says "You wanna offer me fellatio to get me to not arrest you" or something along those lines because just thinking about this scene is giving me a headache, I am not rewatching it. So he zips his pants down and just about he's [probably] going to shove Jeffery's head down into that burning bush of a crotch, he gets a call on his radio to bring Jeffery in so he's saved but...man, this scene bothered the life out of me.

Anyways so War or Warlow, whatever his name is, comes to Benny's Tow yard with some girl who looks like she has a ferret on top of her head. Benny wants to go into business with him and some white man named Mitch. Warlock lets it slip up that Candace hooked him up with some money. Mitch comes in and it's clear there's some tension with him and Warlock. Why? I don't care. But basically now Warlock is mad as shit that Candace didn't tell him that she came into money and he's pissed off as hell and ends up getting her address and confronts her at her house before choking her as he sees that Quincy is dead. Damn, why everyone gotta choke Candy??

"Man, Benny, I'm a thug."

Hanna is still hard-headed as a coconut and is trying to get an extension staying at the MO-tel. I don't care what anybody says, Hanna is staying in a damn motel. She offers to help clean but they have enough help so basically, Hanna is fucked if she has nowhere to go (because she still thinks she has a job). She calls Aliyah, whose been to her house and sees that there was a fire, and gives her until 3 on Monday to prove she can provide a stable environment for Quincy Jr. He wakes up and tells her he needs medicine. Candace is right, though, shouldn't the hospital see something's wrong and that he needs medicine? Part of me thinks that Quita and them have been giving him drugs so he's going through withdrawal or something...I mean, I wouldn't put it past Tyler.

-Ugh, Little Q can't act.

Maggie gets David, and only David an early hearing. It's literally just so she can have some tine alone on him and desperation isn't a cute color on that white lady. D.A. Herpes (Jennifer) requests some bitchy officer to get three cells, put Jeffrey in the middle and Jim/David on one side and Veronica/Katheryn on the other side. This bitch is ruthless. Anyways, so she gets an emailed link of the newspaper that has Veronica and Benny having sex on the cover. She has the officer throw in the newspaper to Ronnie & Kat's cell and David & Jim's cell. You can only feel so bad for David. Everyone has been saying to him since that bitch tried to set him on fire that Veronica was no good. Hell, she even told him that she cheated on him. David is a ride or die but he's also a ride or dumb ass.

GOD DAMN THESE WHITE BOYS ARE OUT OF CONTROL THIS WEEK. First Officer Fellatio, Mitch the Bitch and now the crack head twins (Wyatt and whatever his dealer's name is). He brings him drugs and some kind of product that makes alcohol/drugs not present in the pee - because he needs to pass a drug test in order to get his inheiritance. In order to pay for it, he gives him Jim and Katheryn's credit cards. Wyatt is so stupid I can't stand it, I hope he overdoses or something.


EPISODE GRADE: C
Too much filler for my tasting with no pay off.
