Candace's scene with Q was quite touching, but I take every shred of humanity it looks like Candace has with a grain of salt. She's proven time and time again she ain't shit and she's probably going to do it again. Much like with Wyatt, Justin and Jeffrey, it's a bit tiring to have Tyler dangling some character development in front of us only to snatch it back and have the characters become even more unlikable and watchable with every passing episode. Candae went from commanding the screen to being a joke on the screen, at least to me. She was once the most powerful person on the show and now she feels like a shadow of her former self. Maybe Q saying he's praying for Candace will change her, but I'm not holding my breath. Hell, she didn't even look in that baby's direction when she walked into Hanna's motel room. Unfit.
Did Jim and Veronica just forget how to read each other? Here we have two of the most entertaining characters on the show confronting each other. I was really looking forward to seeing these two get together. Jim has been away from the action for a while and a good shit talking with Veronica would have brought him right back into the mess. These two are just magic on the screen, especially together. And somehow watching them felt like a chore this week. On the surface, I get why this was portrayed as a more serious conversation but there's a difference between serious and just flat out boredom. I was bored. Veronica was going on about some puzzle and how she has videos on Jim that will get leaked if he messes with her. Jim's just concerned about them being on the same page. All I know is this scene lasted for a good 24 minutes with only about 2 minutes worth of actual content worth listening to. Call me up with he starts talking about her wigs and she starts getting specific about some of the nasty shit on these videos because I'm Tamela Mann to the bullshit. Truth is I'm tired.
Tyler, girl. Don't you ever in your black ass life ever think about writing for porn. Ever. Some of the dialogue in this weeks episode, when it came to sex, was just absolutely laughable. I don't know if it was the script, or Peter Parros (David), but I was ready, willing and able to turn off my television when David started to talk dirty to Ericka. I almost choked when he said "small of [her] back." Who talks like this? Please. Let me know if I'm just being ignorant but good god. Also I'm getting sick of this storyline. Veronica was the perfect thing to spice it up but now we're back to Ericka and David swapping horribly boring dialogue. I swear, if we have to sit through a three minute scene of the two of them dancing to a country song I'm going to fly up to Atlanta and have a discussion with Tyler Perry about the direction of this show.
Having Justin yammer on about how much Jeffrey's "changed" him was just laughable. I was moved to chuckle. I was laughing so hard when Justin was spouting out "I don't want you to go away," etc. Depending on what Justin's definition of "changed" is, it's a safe bet to say he just wanted some dick in that moment. Okay, girl. He changed you but you're still telling him to get married to a woman, while you're married to a woman, just so y'all can keep sneaking around and fucking? How exactly has Justin been changed by Jeffrey? Maybe considering Justin arrest Jeffrey anymore and almost force him to give him head in the back of his cop car anymore. That's a step in the right direction. I am just so tired of them. LANDON + JEFFREY 5EVER.
Also, at the end of the episode the cops come to the Cryer door. That happened. Kathryn's still being petty and Jim is still really trying to convince her that she's just being dumb. It's not working. And then the episode ends.
EPISODE GRADE: C-
Storyline grades:

Stray notes:
-Hanna also figured out that Benny's bracelet it missing and it's probably the one they found next to the corpse. Yikes.
-Speaking of Hanna, she was trying it when she kept slapping Benny. Yes, he needed some sense slapped into him. Homebody also looked like he was about to buck up back to her...
-"Pray louder." LMAO.
-Piano riffs do not make David sound or look sexier. They just don't. Sorry.
-As much as Veronica and Jim were a mess this episode, I was living for Veronica when she was subtly clapping back at the detective dude with the warrant.
-Justin, Oscar and Wyatt are clearly only on here for eye candy at this point.
-You might have guessed, but I still don't see it for Justin and Jeffrey. Sorry.
-I repeat, I was laughing SO HARD whenever Justin spoke.
-Quita and her boo fucking on Wyatt's bed...no. Just stop showing them. Just have the storyline disappear. I won't care, I promise. I won't say anything.
