The Impaler Update
Heather (Ashley Jones) has continued to move about town, keeping people off guard. And letting her brother know that she’s sticking around for the foreseeable future. She recently had a tense encounter with Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix). It was that long ago she engineered a run-in with Smitty (Mike Manning) and Martin (Brandon Claybon).
And now Heather does something that the teasers say stuns Smitty. The investigative reporter is relishing the effect his articles on The Impaler are having. They are causing damage to the plasma ring nationwide.
Do you know who is probably not impressed? Heather. So maybe this move she makes is designed to get him to rethink his strategy on doubling down on his digging into places he’s not wanted. In related news, Jacob’s (Jibre Hordges) investigation takes an unexpected turn. Is the police detective about to catch a break in the case?
Leslie Makes Waves With Her Latest Decision
Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant) must be riding high on the deal she struck with Anita (Tamara Tunie). She gets a producer credit on the album The Articulettes are recording as a tribute to Barbara. And she gets to be in the studio while they record it — of course, she is supposed to stay silent the entire time. But we know how difficult that will be for Leslie.
Before all of that happens, however. She does what she does best and stirs the pot. Leslie’s loyalty to her family’s legacy ruffles a few feathers. Whose feathers are we talking about?

It has been a minute since Kat (Colby Nixon) lived with her grandparents. But on Wednesday, she’ll spend some quality time with her grandmother. Anita is supposed to counsel Kat. Hopefully, she will tell her about her recent conflict with Tomas (Alex Alegria), and Anita will help her see that none of that mess was her fault.
Meanwhile, Izaiah (Lami) makes Darlene’s (Monique Mosee) day, which must mean he will give her the brand-new handbag that Kat gifted him with orders to give it to his mom. Izaiah and Kat have been (mostly) on the same page these days. The only thing they can’t agree on is Eva (Ambyr Michelle).
And finally, Vanessa (Lauren Buglioli) and Randy (Maurice P. Kerry) discuss their regrets, which will probably involve Doug (Jason Graham). After all, the one-year anniversary of his tragic death is approaching, and it has both of them thinking about their husband and best friend, respectively.
