Copper Sun
Ralph Angel (Kofi Siriboe) reveals Darla's secret (Bianca Lawson) to his family, and upon hearing the news, Charley (Dawn-Lyen Gardner) ends her employment. Meanwhile, Micah (Nicholas L. Ashe) takes action against his school by placing an open letter to the Administration on every student's locker. The school complies with his request, but they still issue a suspension. Hollywood (Omar J. Dorsey) promises to use the potential money from his class-action lawsuit to fulfill Violet's (Tina Lifford) wish list. Charley and Remy (Dondrà T. Whitfield) get an unexpected visit from Jacob Boudreaux (Lea Coco) and they have a heated exchange about Charley poaching his farmers. Surprisingly, he suggests they form a partnership. Nova (Rutina Wesley) is shocked to learn that someone is pitching an article about the internal problems at Charley's mill. Charley agrees to publicly set the record straight, but first she goes directly to the source. Upon entering the Boudreaux Mill, Jacob says he's been expecting her.
