Joey Faces Tough Questions from a Surprising Source
Vanessa (Lauren Buglioli) usually stands by her man every chance that she can get. And it’s damaging her relationships with her friends and family. While she’s patched things up with Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix), they can’t share everything because Nicole and Joey (Jon Lindstrom) are from different worlds.
The two may have called a truce, but there won’t be any more double dates anytime soon. Additionally, Vanessa still hasn’t heard from Deanna (Angela Fairley) after the last time she was in town. And that’s all because of her relationship with Joey, something she refuses to give up.
But Joey is a shady individual, and as a result, his relationship with Vanessa is always a minute away from imploding. Their bond may be put to the test on Wednesday, when Vanessa questions Joey about the chaos of the evening, presumably the hell that broke loose at the warehouse. What kind of questions will he face?
A Death and a Crowning in the Same Crazy Night
It’s a busy and dramatic night in the DMV. There’s the social event of the season and a meeting of the plasma ring’s VIP going on simultaneously. And since chaos erupted at the warehouse, it’s fair to assume that that is where the death happens. Will it be one of the good guys, the bad guys, or someone who lives their life in the gray area? And who will feel the impact of this death the most?
And while a tragedy happens, so does a debutante’s triumph when one of the young women gets crowned Platinum Deb. Will it be Samantha (Najah Jackson), Jessica (Camryn Jade), or Chessy (Madison Alsobrook)? The quest for Platinum Deb has been a battle in its own right. Samantha has faced bullying from the Belleclaires, who have set out to tear her down and make her feel unworthy of the prestigious honor. Who will take the title?
Tyrell and Jessica Take the Next Step in Their Relationship
Finally, Tyrell (Jaden Lucas Miller) and Jessica have been seeing each other for a while now. They have become a solid pairing, but they are about to head to colleges on different coasts. While Tyrell will set up shop at Banneker, Jessica has decided to go to UCLA.
And while the cotillion is neither of their favorite ways to spend time together, they take advantage of the evening’s elegance and romance. The weekly teasers reveal that the couple slips away from the cotillion for their first time together.
