Previously on Saints & Sinners:
-Let her go! -Oh my God.
I've got a target on my back.
My safety's worth riskin',
but not your wife's, right?
You attacked my business partner.
I submitted a motion to the board
for your immediate removal.
I don't want to do this, please just find somebody else.
You really think Victor's gonna make you CEO?
Or is he dangling a carrot to make you do what he wants?
Why would you sign over your shares
to this vermin?
This vermin is my live-in husband.
[Dramatic Chord]
[Jazz Music Playing] [People Chatting Happily]
I needed a little something to take the edge off.
This is going to be a big night for you.
And it's all because of you.
I promise I won't let you down.
You letting me down is the furthest thing from my mind.
[Victor Chuckles]
And old fashioned please, bourbon, sweet, two cherries.
Oh, always so direct.
That's the difference between successful people and those who
aspire to be.
[Chuckles]
You can't be afraid to go after what you want, Ella.
Well, I want that CEO position.
I just hope I have enough votes.
You see that man over there,
dancing with the woman in the green dress?
Yeah.
That's Matthew Brandon. He's been a board member for almost 10 years.
Married for 15,
his wife's a successful divorce attorney.
Beautiful, brilliant, and not the woman he's dancing with right now.
[Chuckling] How do you know?
I know because I conduct research on all the UpSurge board members.
It's helpful when it comes to
influencing votes.
He keeps his secret, his wife doesn't take half of everything,
And I run UpSurge as I deem necessary.
Hmm.
What about Rex and Felicia?
Oh, an afterthought.
The board can't reject the CEO I appoint
without just cause.
And, there are plenty of Matthew's sitting on the board.
[Both Laughing]
To the new CEO.
The new CEO.
[Felicia Laughs]
Oh, to what are we toasting to?
A new era at UpSurge.
It's nice to see you in good spirits, daddy.
It's unfortunate that it only happens when you talk about business.
And I see you found a new pet.
I'm gonna be the new CEO of UpSurge
Felicia, so I would be careful
how you address me.
Interesting.
Since we're talking about that.
What's this?
That is my petition to be the next CEO of UpSurge.
And I was formally nominated by the board.
So, big sis,
I hope you ready to fight.
[Theme Music Starting]
* Go on give God the praise
* I fell so hard, Lost my faith in God
* I couldn't even pray So I say
* We're just sinners saved by Grace
Ella, the board is well aware of Felicia's issues.
No matter what she tries, they will not, I repeat,
will not allow someone with her issues
to take the CEO seat.
You can try to disparage me,
but you can't deny the facts.
Both you and the board know
that the most profitable years at UpSurge
was when I was CFO.
Hm, and look at the company now.
Under your watch, we've lose
40% of our value. [Victor Chuckles]
We've lost 40% of our value because of Malik.
Our CEO is dead.
Be careful how you speak about my son.
Malik is gone, daddy,
he's not coming back, and whether you like it or not,
I'm the only one that can dig us out of this mess.
I will be CEO
before it's all said and done.
Mm.
My dearest daughter.
Have I told you how gorgeous you look tonight?
There is only one thing missing.
This belonged to someone very special.
And now...
it's yours.
Oh my God.
It's beautiful.
Did you know Levi was gonna be here?
Yeah, he's a member of the board.
Does he know?
No, just uh, be cool.
-What's going on, fam? -Hey, cuz.
-You lookin' sharp, lookin' sharp! -Thank you, sir.
Likewise. Paige.
Good to see you alive.
Yeah, good to see you too, Levi.
Not sure if Jabari told you, but I had my own near death experience.
It's crazy how something like that can
make you think about what's really important, you know?
Family, and being around people you can trust.
Yeah, family.
We should hang out.
You should bring Jada to come see Savannah when she's back in town.
Oh, yeah, sure. Uh,
she spends a lot of time going back and forth
between her grandmas and home, but
yeah, we can definitely set something up.
Okay, let's do it.
Um, I gotta take care of some business real fast.
Shot. [Dramatic Music]
We should do a shot when I get back.
-Yes, or yes? -[Jabri Chuckles] Yes.
-I need a drink. -Yeah.
It's good to know I, I have your support with my decision.
Victor. Good to see you.
Question,
how are the future projections of our company holding up?
Mm, go read the prospectus, if you can read.
Well I figured you're running the company,
I'd get my information from the horse's mouth.
That is, before Felicia takes over.
Oh, she doesn't have the votes.
And the intricacies of corporate finance
are far too complicated for someone like you. [Rex Chuckles]
Then why don't we simply?
Well for you, that might not be difficult.
Let me say this Victor,
anything you throw at me,
I will overcome it.
Like a roach.
And you know what I do with roaches?
I smash them.
Like I smashed your daughters?
[Rex Chuckles]
Let me tell you something, Victor,
I have shares in UpSurge, and I sit on the board.
So buckle up.
Because I'm not going anywhere, pops.
Let me grab one of these, do you mind?
Mm-hmm.
These are very tasty. You should try one.
[Rex Chuckles Softly]
Well, don't you look handsome?
Thank you.
Now, are you referring to
me, or my board seat?
Hmm, you don't waste any time, do you?
-You don't have much to spare. -Ah.
So if you're coming over here to convince me to vote for you,
I would recommend he elevator pitch.
Very well.
There's only two people that stand a real chance at
winning the CEO seat, that's Ella and me.
Ella couldn't even run this sorry-ass town,
let alone run a multi-million dollar company.
You and I both can't trust her.
She did turn you in into the IRS, didn't she?
-Pretty convincing pitch. -Hmm.
Almost had me.
Ella does have one thing you don't,
Victor's support.
What if you were my CFO?
Running UpSurge as my number 2?
[Low Dramatic Music]
Keep talkin'. [Felicia Chuckles]
How much longer do we need to be around these fake-ass people?
Victor fired you.
Why are we even here?
Babe, we're here for WQCL, okay?
These are the politics now.
I don't know.
Something doesn't feel right.
Levi's playing too nice.
Look, I talked to him man to man, okay?
-Past is the past. -Hmm.
I don't trust him.
Look, this is what we'll do,
we'll stay here until Victor announces Ella as the new CEO,
and then we'll set up a play date between Savannah and Jada,
and you'll see. Things are different now.
I hope I'm not interrupting anything important.
I just wanted to stop by and tell Jabari thank you.
For what?
He didn't tell you? [She Chuckles]
Jabari's so modest.
Uh, the other day I was walking to my
car and a man assaulted me.
I was terrified.
Jabari arrives out of nowhere and just chases the guy off.
If it weren't for him, who knows what may have happened?
Yeah, it, it wasn't really a big deal.
-I thought you were mad at me. -Again with the modesty.
You're just cutting so close.
At work we're more efficient.
In areas where he's weak, I'm strong.
We've even started to finish each others sentences.
It's hilarious, right? [She Laughs]
We make a great team.
Professionally speaking, of course.
I'm like a work wife.
Well, he's spending time with his real wife right now.
-So... -Oh! Of course.
Paige, you look beautiful.
Have I ever told you that you have excellent taste in dresses?
So with your support and my connections with the city,
we can insure UpSurge with over one hundred million dollars in tax credits.
You make a compelling case.
You have my vote.
Oh, thank you, that's great.
I'll talk to the other members tonight.
By the end of the night, you should have the numbers.
-Fantastic. -Absolutely. [He Chuckles]
Excuse me. May I cut in?
I'm a board member.
Thank you.
What do you want, Rex?
Can't a man dance with the most beautiful woman in the room?
I don't know, how would your wife feel about that?
-You're not jealous, are you? -Oh, please. [Rex Chuckles]
I know the only reason you two are teaming up on me
is to screw me out of the CEO position.
Well I have to admit,
I thought about getting back at you.
A loss for you would mean a win for Felicia.
A win for Felicia would mean a win for me.
But I thought about what you said in our spot,
and I'm convinced that you're right.
About?
This dance that we've been doing over the years.
[Both Chuckle]
Oh.
What if I am...
wasn't with Felicia to make you jealous, or
get back at you,
and I was ready to move on.
Could you handle that?
Well if that were the case, then
I'd say I'm happy for you.
[Applause]
Are you done fraternizing with the enemy?
Oh we were just finishing up our conversation.
Coming to concede that you lost?
I'm coming to claim what's mine.
Oh, not Rex. That necklace, give it to me.
Oh, but it looks so good with my dress.
I'm gonna tell you one more time,
give me that necklace.
Felicia, the spoiled little princess routine
is really beneath you.
That belonged to my mother, and if you don't take it off
now, I'll yank if off of yo damn neck.
-Oh sweetie, you just try it. -Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Now stop it.
Now as much as I'd love to see you two wrestle,
you gotta cool out.
We're at a party, and neither one of you are CEO just yet.
Oh hey, sis,
why don't you have a drink? You look like you could use it. [Ella Gasps]
Can you hold your liquor yet? [Party-Goers Gasp]
Calm your asses down!
When Victor's done with you and his infatuation with you,
He will dump you.
And when he does, I'll be the only one standing.
The only place you're gonna be standing is in the parking lot
on the outside looking in,
because when I'm CEO,
UpSurge will be making some much needed cuts.
[Felicia Chuckles] Try it.
My husband knows where the bodies are buried.
I'm not afraid to dig them up.
Did you think I was gonna give up my birthright
to some back-woods bitch from Cyprus?
You really got me messed up.
Come on, Rex.
Felicia, quite the display over there.
I'm sure the board got their money's worth.
My apologies.
That is not the best representation of me.
You don't need to reassure me.
I love seein' Ella get put in her place. [He Chuckles]
What you want, Levi?
I have a business proposal for Felicia.
-You better make it quick. -Hmm.
As it currently stands, you're behind two votes.
Now, should you somehow convince someone to flip,
you'll be tied.
So I'm assuming that's where you come in.
You're assuming correctly.
You end up tied,
I'll give you my vote.
For certain... guarantees.
[She Chuckles Softly] So you tryin' to hustle us.
I learned from the best, Rex.
I believe Rex and I can handle that.
I'm sure you can.
I'd hurry, because Victor's going to announce that
Ella's the new CEO soon.
IS that quick enough for you?
Same old Levi.
I'm gonna change.
I don't know what to do.
I've squeezed out all the votes.
I'm not sure I can flip anybody else.
I just saw...
I know that character.
-Matthew?
We have a lot in common.
Her name is Candy.
I got a idea. I'll be right back.
[Rex] Matthew!
Dirty martini.
How dirty?
You almost missed the party.
I was busy.
Too busy to see your mom go from
bein' a killer to CEO?
She has you to thank for that.
Not now, Levi.
I had a tough day and I don't-
How's your medical licensing thing going?
The hypocritical oath?
Hippocratic.
Apparently not for you.
Are you just going to sit there and be shady and spiteful all night?
Maybe. The night's still young.
I can't with you.
Well technically, you already have.
And if you get the urge to tak a trip down memory lane,
I would gladly oblige you.
[He Growls Softly]
Mm-mm-mm.
How are ya?
[Lock Clicks]
What're you doing?
Oh I, I just locked the door.
So nobody would come in and disturb us.
I don't have any money.
I don't need any money.
I just need your vote.
I've already made up my mind.
Really?
Well I think you making a mistake, Matthew.
How do you know my name? Have we met before?
No, we ain't never met.
But we run in the same circles.
I don't think so.
Now if you'll excuse me.
[Rex] Except our circle
includes women with names like "Candy".
"Ginger."
"Angel."
Yeah.
See, I thought that'd ring a bell.
See, I'm very close to these ladies.
In one phone call, they could be at your wife's doorstep.
And giver her all the details of the
kinky escapades you've been having with them.
What do you want?
Just a vote for Felicia.
I can't.
Let me ask you a question,
your wife still uh, practicing law?
Please, don't make me. Victor, he would never- [Phone Ringing]
It's ringing, Matthew. [Matthew Sighs]
Okay, all right! I'll do it.
[Phone Stops Ringing]
Good.
That's more like it.
Really appreciate you.
Drowning your sorrows?
Leave me alone, Levi.
Can't believe you're torturing yourself like this.
Face it, they're soul mates.
While you're over here getting drunk,
Ella is making a play for CEO.
Why didn't you tell me?
I thought you knew.
You're supposed to be my eyes and ears, Angela.
UpSurge is your territory.
But what does it matter? It's not like your life is gonna be ruined.
-Now gimme back my drink. -You've had enough.
-Give me back my damn drink! -You know what?
I hope you choke on it.
Go to hell.
And since you're having such a tough time doing your job,
maybe I'll have a conversation with Jabari.
Snap you back to reality.
You don't scare me.
That's that liquid courage talking.
We'll see.
Mind if I interrupt the father daughter dance?
Give me a second. Take this for me, please.
What do you want, little girl?
I am pretty sure your new wife would not approve of you
flirting with women half your age.
You need to stay in your lane and stay out of my business.
Now why are you over here messing with me?
Like you and Felicia messed with Kendrick?
Droppin' that paternity bombshell at his baby shower.
I warned him about Stacia.
But he wouldn't listen.
You could have told him anytime.
You could have respected him.
But instead, you let him be embarrassed.
After you got him arrested for driving your vehicles.
That wasn't on me.
That was on him, he knew the risk.
He's a grown ass man. [She Scoffs]
Now I gotta go.
That's right, he is a grown ass man.
More man than you'll ever be.
He stepped up and was willing to be a
father, something you never did.
But you can make up for it now.
And how's that?
By taking down the people responsible for the organ ring.
I'm going to stop it.
And Rex, I'll take you down too, if you don't help me.
Really?
Let me tell you something, little girl,
don't you ever in your life threaten me.
Now you about to be in over your head.
And I don't want a part of it.
Then tell me,
Who are the suppliers? Who's calling the shots?
I have no idea.
I only know who's trying to take me down, alright?
And I want to thank Victor for his support
and belief in me.
No, father.
Yes. And I want to thank my father,
-Ella? -for his support.
What are you doing?
I just want to make sure that I'm
representing you and the company well.
Oh, no need to be nervous. You're more than ready for this moment.
Oh Victor, this has all been such a whirlwind. I mean you,
coming into town, and,
the revelation about the man who raised me,
UpSurge, it's like I'm on the
outside of my body just watchin' all this
happen around me.
Mm, Ella, you'll be fine.
I'm confident I'm making the right decision to secure my legacy.
Thank you, daddy.
Victor, I'm sorry...
Yes, what is it?
[Clears Throat] I've had a change of heart.
I'm voting for Felicia.
Well Matthew, don't forget about our arrangement.
I haven't,
but I have to do this. I'm sorry.
No.
Now what're we gonna do? I mean,
who can I convince?
You'll be fine, we simply need to recount the votes
to see where you currently stand.
No, Levi.
If I can convince Levi,
then I have a chance.
[Dramatic Music]
[Ella] It's too late.
Felicia's gonna be CEO.
-[Christie] Mom? -Oh.
[Sniffles] Hey, Tinie.
What's wrong? Why are you out here crying on your big day?
Yeah, that's the problem.
I thought it was my big day.
Felicia has all the votes.
So, she's gonna be the CEO.
No,
no, no, you get in there and you convince someone, mom.
-Look, I, we can- -It's too many.
Time has run out. [Somber Music]
Any moment now, Victor is
gonna make the announcement.
You know,
I thought that when
God brought Victor into my life that,
He was forgiving me for everything I've done.
I was ready to change.
And to think that my real father
was gonna be by my side.
[Sighs] It made it...
it would've been perfect.
Mom, you still have Victor in your life.
And even if it's not as CEO,
I'm still you can still work at UpSurge in some capacity.
Ever the optimist, aren't you?
You know, I never said thank you.
For what?
For not turning me in.
I hurt a lot of people.
And I realize that now.
And, I don't know, I, maybe,
it was God's plan all along, you know?
'Cause He's teaching me a lesson.
He's humbling me.
But I guess you're right.
I still have Victor.
And maybe...
I hope I still have you.
[Touching Music]
[Smooth Jazz Playing]
I know you're voting with Felicia.
You don't know what I'm gonna do.
I saw you two "kee-keeing" earlier.
I spoke with a lot of people tonight.
Made a lot of deals.
Seriously Levi, you don't know anything about her.
I know she's not a killer.
Look, my mom is trying to be a better person.
She is trying to turn a corner.
The only corner Ella needs to turn is right into a prison cell.
Levi, just listen to me.
Christie, I'm sorry.
I don't have the patience to listen to you rationalize why I should vote for your mom.
Thank you.
What?
Come dance with me.
I already told you this wasn't going to work.
Look,
with or without you,
I'm bringing your mother to justice.
What if you could use her
to get what you want?
Well right now what I want is...
[Christie] Levi.
[She Chuckles] I know you.
Always wanting more.
Money, power, sex.
And you can have it all.
Can I, now?
All by voting for your mom?
Yes.
She's only out for herself, she'll never do the right thing.
So make her.
You control her.
Wouldn't that be the best revenge?
You know all of her secrets, her weaknesses.
Use that to your advantage when she becomes CEO.
You're not gonna be able to control Felicia.
How do you know what she's going to do when she gains power?
You want me to blackmail your mom?
Your family really is crazy.
But am I wrong?
The devil you know is better than the devil you don't.
I don't know Christie, I'm not,
not convinced. Not completely.
The files.
The St. Charles evidence.
I still have them.
You didn't destroy those?
Why am I not surprised?
It's the leverage you need, right?
Damn, you're good.
I am going to need one more thing to close this deal.
What's that?
[Slow Jazz Playing]
Thank you, and I look forward to your vote.
Wipe that smug smile off your face,
I haven't made the announcement yet.
You wouldn't be over here daddy if I didn't have the
votes, and I told you, I will not be denied.
This is my company, if I had wanted you to be
CEO, you would've been CEO.
But you have no choice. I played by the rules,
and I've gathered the support.
And I will run this company until the last days of your life.
Careful Felicia,
pride cometh before the fall.
You know the best part of you announcing me as CEO is?
I'm sure you'll tell me.
I'll be the first woman to lead this company,
and knowing that the last days of your life on this earth
I will have beaten you at your own game.
I severely underestimated your talents, daughter.
I know that in many ways, some of my philosophies have
gone by the way of the dinosaur,
but they're what made me the man I am today.
Maybe,
just maybe, it's time for a change.
When you get to be my age,
you have opportunities to look back on your life.
The victories, areas of opportunity.
I know I wasn't the best father to you,
but I don't regret being hard on you.
Clearly, it's prepared you for this moment.
You're a fighter. Like your mother.
And as difficult as it is for me to admit,
you've earned my respect.
I've waited all my life to hear those words, daddy.
But I don't think that you've had this great epiphany.
You know I have the votes, and you came to concede.
Oh, I'm not conceding.
You're not ready for the position, and I'm not going to
make the same mistake with you that I made with Malik.
I'm not Malik.
I'm better than Malik.
-In what way? -In every way.
Don't project the mistakes that you made with Malik onto me.
I have the knowledge, the experience,
and I have the votes.
Mm, I was over 50 when I
led a large company for the first time, even then I wasn't ready.
Well then, I guess I'm better than you.
Now I expect my name to be called this evening.
And when it is, just know I will lead this company
with my vision into the future.
I just ask one thing from you.
Stay the hell out of my way.
Once I'm on the board, I have
great plans to partner with-
Ella.
Don't you look stunning tonight?
Excuse me, please.
Thank you, and don't you
look like a snake.
Come to tell me that you've thrown your support behind Felicia?
On the contrary,
I come to offer you a proposition.
Really? What changed your mind?
Christie. She can be very persuasive.
[Ella] Well, she learned everything from her mother.
[Levi] Hopefully not everything.
So Levi, do I have your vote?
You do.
And Felicia?
She was persuasive as well but,
you're a better candidate for my needs. [Ella Chuckles]
Always thinking about yourself.
You would know a little something about that, but,
I'll scratch your back tonight
if you'll scratch mine once you're voted in.
Okay, I'm game.
You do realize that
being CEO of a major corporation in Cyprus
and being the mayor of Cyprus is a conflict of interest?
For whom?
The people of the city.
Including myself, I am a businessman here.
[She Chuckles] So, what do you suggest I do?
Resign.
What? Oh no, there is no way
I'm going to step down.
You resign, you have my vote.
Levi, I need some sort of guarantee.
I will put it in writing with Victor right now.
And I have your vote?
You have y vote.
[Low Dramatic Music]
Uh hello everyone, good evening. May I please have your attention?
Excuse me, may I have everyone's attention please?
May I have everyone's attention? Thank you.
Before Victor Thompson takes the stage,
I wanted to let you all know that
after careful consideration and deep prayer.
I have decided to resign as mayor of Cyprus.
[Crowd Gasps]
I believe that returning to the private sector is the best way for me
to help our community here in Cyprus.
And with that, I'd like to ask
UpSurge chairman, Mr. Victor Thompson,
onto the stage. Victor?
[Applauding]
Thank you, thank you mayor Johnson,
and thank you for being such a
welcoming force for UpSurge
here in Cyprus.
I'm sure that the good people of this city
are going to be very sad at your stepping down.
Which leads me to the reason we are all here this evening.
Since the death of my son Malik, I've
dreaded this decision.
But I understand that I can't leave the vacant
CEO position open indefinitely.
To that end,
I'd like to announce that I have made a decision
as to who will be the next CEO of UpSurge. [Dramatic Music Building]
Ladies and gentlemen,
the next CEO of UpSurge will be
none other than
Levi Sterling. [Crowd Gasps]
Levi?
[Crowd Applauding]
[Congratulations]
Thank you.
Hey, fam.
Congratulations cuz, I
should have known you had something up that long-ass sleeve.
Hm. Like your girl Angela.
Excuse me?
She knew you were in the hospital.
The whole time.
What?
While you were laid up in that gurney,
she was layin' up in your bed with Jabari.
Hold up, wait, wait man.
Angela wouldn't lie to me like that.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Swipe, you're in there.
She knew everything.
Just like I knew you shot me.
Man, she didn't shoot you.
Your bitch shot me and put me in a coma.
And you knew all about it.
[Dramatic Music]
Y'all enjoy your night, I've got some more celebrating to do.
I was so sure
I had all the votes in my favor.
As usual, you've won.
I'll play along.
Levi's going to need someone
that knows the ins and the outs of this business.
Someone that has their finger on the pulse
of the established contracts and the outstanding deliverables.
[Dramatic Chord]
The only thing you've delivered is disappointment.
Daddy!
I'm Victor Thompson.
I made this company.
Who the hell are you to think that you can strong arm me into taking it over?
You're pathetic.
A disastrous drunk, and not worth my time.
Or energy.
[Sobs] Dad...
[Angela Laughing]
Thank you. You look nice.
You lied to me!
You better tell your John to wait for you
back at the hotel room!
It's okay.
Can you get me another drink?
[Paige] We won't be long.
I know she only charges by the half hour.
I'll be okay.
So what's going on with you two?
You knew Paige was live, you knew she was in that hospital!
Jabari I don't know where you're getting this information from.
Stop lying!
Levi showed us.
You were at the hospital talking to my doctor.
Okay fine! I was there.
But much later.
After the accident, Malik brought you to the hospital.
He didn't want Jabari to get his hopes up
in case you took a turn for the worse.
Liar!
Why didn't you tell me she was alive?
Malik wanted to tell you himself.
He threatened me and told me not to say anything.
Why didn't you tell me after he died?!
I told you you couldn't trust this lying-ass urgh!
Look, I'm sorry!
I didn't mean for things to turn out this way.
-Jabari listen, maybe we can- -Don't touch me.
Look, don't ever
bring your crazy ass around me again.
Ever.
-Son of a- -Careful Christie,
you are talkin' to the most powerful man in Cyprus.
-We had a deal. -Listen,
you weren't even willing to turn over the evidence
against Ella to the police.
You really thought I believed you were gonna give it to me?
She's still my mother.
And it's one thing to bring her to justice,
but it's another thing to string her along
and publicly humiliate her like this.
Oh really?
I wonder what the families of Sheri Tucker and
St. Charles would feel about that.
My mother was really trying to do better.
And now that you've snatched everything away
from her, there's no telling what she's going to do.
Don't you believe in forgiveness? [Levi Sighs]
In redemption?
Yeah.
Used to, anyway.
Used to believe in us.
Until your lies blew up our wedding.
Used to believe in the good in other people.
Until I was blackmailed and
shot and left for dead in a bathroom.
You know the irony about that though, is that once I stopped believing in all that,
I started winning.
Look at me now.
I own the church,
run a multi-million dollar company,
Won't he do it? Ah.
Company car.
God helps those who help themselves.
I'm sure you know all about that.
[Knocking]
[Rex] Felicia?
Hey.
You okay? You're taking that uh,
that CEO thing pretty hard, aren't you?
[Scoffs]
Hey.
Are you okay?
Oh my God.
What happened?
My father happened.
Has he ever done this to you before?
[Felicia Laughs]
Sixteen years old.
I was dating this guy,
snuck into my room,
somehow daddy knew. [She Chuckles]
He barged in with a shotgun.
Made him get dressed.
Said that if he ever saw him again...
he would shoot him.
But, daddy wasn't done.
[Sniffles]
He dragged me to the kitchen.
Said that if any boy touched me ever again,
they would know I was his daughter.
I'm so sorry.
[Rex] What the hell? [Dramatic Chord]
Oh dear God. [Felicia Sobs]
[Softly] This is who he is.
This is my father.
Do you need anything?
I'm so sorry.
Don't worry, we'll take care of this.
It's gonna be fine.
[Ella] I did everything that you told me to do. Everything!
How could you do that to me?!
Your own daughter!
Don't you call yourself my daughter,
you cost me the biggest loss of my life!
What? I told you I did not kill Malik!
I'm not talking about Malik,
I'm talking about the hole that can't be filled with money,
or power, no matter how hard I try!
Please tell me what did I do?
You killed her.
-You killed my Joella. -What?
Your mother, when you came into this world!
How can you blame me for that?
I've watched you.
Your father, your son, your husband,
countless others, and now Malik.
Everything you touch dies.
But that's all over now.
Leona is gone, your mayorship is gone,
your power here is gone!
It's as if you never existed! [Ominous Music Building]
[Sobbing] I hate you.
[Screaming] I hate you!
[Sobbing]
Oh, God!
