The fall out continues after Unique’s crew is pursued by Howard.
Unique is emotional after he kills his own childhood best friend Trez G. He believes Trez was getting into his drugs behind his back. And he could have told the cops about the re-up. He weeps after he pulls the trigger.
Kanan isn’t thrilled that Symphony came over on the night he usually cooks dinner for Raq. Apparently, Symphony took Raq out to eat prior. Since Symphony didn’t know that Kanan cooks on this particular night, he apologizes. Kanan doesn’t seem moved by the apology. And he says that Raq knows this was the night he cooks dinner and she went out anyway.
Nicole’s parents meet Jukebox.
Jukebox is hanging out with girlfriend Nicole in her room. Her parents come up when and praise the karaoke video they recorded at the mall. After they leave the two young ladies alone together, Jukebox says that Nicole’s parents are cool. But Nicole says they aren’t cool about everything before kissing her.
After Marvin and Toni sleep together, Marvin refuses to cuddle with her. He tells her they aren’t together and he also takes back LT, the dog he gifted her because Toni hasn’t been feeding him enough. Toni is in shock by Marvin’s behavior towards her.
It’s time for Unique to get even.
Unique is on the edge after Howard and the cops busted his crew on his corners. He’s still not sure who gave Howard the information on the re-up. But Trez was a suspect and so is the rest of his crew. With Deen not wanting to do another re-up until things cool down, Unique is forced to stretch the little bit of drugs they have left. Plus, he’s thinking Raq is behind all of his troubles somehow and they will have to hit back.
Raq tells Kanan she’s not going to apologize for going out to dinner with Symphony on the night Kanan makes her dinner. So he needs to move on. She also says that she knows Kanan didn’t complete a paper for one of his classes, so she’s signed him up for weekend and night classes because he needs to get his grades up. He’s also being moved out of the stash house because he won’t be allowed to have a bigger role in the crew if he’s not doing well in school.
Lou Lou isn’t sure he can trust Jessica.
Jessica and Famous are in the studio with Crown. Famous is recording music and Crown thinks his lyrics need some work. But he believes Famous can come to one of his upcoming showcases and meet some movers and shakers in the music business. And Jessica is thankful for the opportunity for her little brother.
Lou Lou comes in and sees Jessica hugging Crown. He confronts her about this outside and she says she’s just trying to put her little brother on like Raq put on Lou Lou. She needs him to understand she’s handling her business and there’s nothing more going on with Crown. Lou Lou hears her out and they kiss before he leaves.
It’s time for a new stash house.
Raq pulls up to the bodega. She’s decided that it will become the new stash house. So she tells Marvin to move everything to the new location. The owner, Gabe, demands to know how much product will be moved there. But Raq tells him she doesn’t answer to him. She tosses some cash his way before leaving. And Gabe’s wife is impressed by how Raq handles her abusive husband.
Unique sees Kanan and Davina talking and kissing. So he makes an offer to Davina to help her mother get clean and pay for her rehab program. All she has to do in exchange is give him information about Kanan. She agrees after Unique promises not to hurt Kanan. Davina tells Unique about the stash house and its location.
Marvin goes by to Scrappy’s apartment to tell him they have to move everything to the new stash house. But Scrappy refuses to go and tells Marvin he has food poisoning. And his, “a*s is leaking.”
Marvin later finds Kanan and tells him he needs help. Kanan tells Marvin he’s not supposed to be at the stash house anymore because Raq doesn’t want him to be. But Marvin tells him it will be quick. So Kanan hops in the car. Meanwhile, Raq uses some cash to get apartments on the seventh and eighth floors.
Nicole and Jukebox have their first intimate moment.
Jukebox is feeling some type of way after Jessica secures Famous studio time and a spot in Crown’s showcase. Lou Lou says there’s nothing he can do to help her and he encourages her to never put herself in a position where she owes somebody for a favor. Now Jukebox needs to figure out how to get some cash fast to record music. So she goes to the location and truck she usually goes to when she steals clothes with her crew. Since things went left the last time and a security guard was beaten badly by her crew, she is forced to go alone with no lookout.
She is successful and grabs the clothes but the security guard grabs her. When he realizes Jukebox is the one who told her crew to stop beating him, he tells her to leave with the clothes. This makes them even. But if she returns, he’ll have her locked up. So Jukebox brings a Ralph Lauren jacket back to Nicole and tells her what happened. At this point, Jukebox thinks Nicole was right about it being time for her to leave “boosting” alone.
Nicole is thankful for the jacket and she “orally pleases” Jukebox for the first time.
The old stash house is hit.
After Unique and his crew see Marvin leaving Kanan behind at the old stash house, they run into the house and pull a gun out on Kanan. As they are taking half of everything, Marvin returns from the bodega. He crashes his car into their truck and starts shooting at them as they drive away. When he comes in the house, he finds Kanan being held by gunpoint. He shoots Unique’s man dead. And Kanan throws up after blood is splattered all over his t-shirt.
Marvin tells Kanan to clean himself up so Raq won’t know he was there. When Kanan gets home, he puts the bloody shirt under his bed. Raq takes Kanan to his night class, and he finds out Symphony is his teacher. And Raq discovers Kanan’s bloody t-shirt.
