Meanwhile, Angela and Romeo are in a hotel room together getting massages, sipping champagne. Angela thinks Romeo’s tired and over-worked.
“You have to sacrifice if you want success.” – Romeo
Angela’s concern impresses Romeo. Things get awkward when Romeo asks her, “How many p*nises did you have?” Angela doesn’t answer. Despite saying he wasn’t flirting, he appears to be when he takes off his shirt during the massage.
Tee Tee’s in the studio with Egypt and Egypt shows off her dog Low-key. Of course, they are talking about Aundre’s ex calling Pepa a home wrecker. Egypt wants to publicly defend Pepa but Tee Tee advises her not to do this.
While they’re talking, rapper Rich Homie Quan calls Tee and invites her out to hang out when he comes to LA.
“Quan became an option when I saw all of the diamonds on his wrist. Hopefully one of those diamonds will land on my wrist.” – Tee Tee

Tee Tee tells Pepa about Aundre’s wife.
Later that night, Tee Tee heads to see Pepa to talk about the slander on Instagram. Pepa doesn’t seem to know about it and appears to be blindsided when Tee Tee tells her about Aundre’s ex.
Tee Tee’s calling it misinformation and Pepa says she’s going to deal with it. When Tee Tee tells Pepa Egypt defended her on social media, Pep’s proud she did it.
It’s the day of Angela’s event and everyone is showing up. Angela reminisces over her grandfather taking her to the race track. Boogie texts Dame that he’s not coming to the event. But Romeo shows up fashionably late.
When Dame runs into Tyran, he tells him bout his father being the Treach of the drug game. Later, Dame tells Angela he and Rocky are looking at having a child.
Vanessa is snubbed by Angela.

“I’m a little hurt… I’m being snubbed and it sucks.” – Vanessa
At the winner’s circle, Romeo cracks a joke on Bow Wow saying he could be one of the horse Jockeys.
After everything happened at the winner’s circle, JoJo checks in on Vanessa. Vanessa tells him about what happened with her time back with Pastry. She gets teary-eyed when she brings up Angela not doing Pastry but JoJo tells her to move on.
“There ain’t no more Run’s House, It’s Vanessa’s house.” – JoJo
Later on, Romeo and JoJo agree to work on a record but JoJo doesn’t think he’s serious. After the event, JoJo joins Tee Tee and Vanessa to talk about Briana. Apparently, Briana’s still frustrated with Vanessa despite telling her they’re cool.
Speaking of Briana, Briana and Boogie are in the studio together. She wants to work with him but there may be feelings between them and that could mess with their vibe in the studio.
