And then, just as suddenly, Lukes being tended to by his father in the church.
He tells Luke that Piranha mentioned something about chartering a jet at Teterboro and calling his mama.
So, great start, Dad.
The man had one job.
And his father isnt meeting him there.
He says he wants Misty back in the department.
Misty insists that shes done being a cop.
Ridenhour tells her that she knows where to find him.
But hes not the only one outside of the loop: Mariah doesnt know where Piranha is, either!
But has figured out that theres a snitch in her midst.
Afterward, Shades tells Mariah that fear doesnt always inspire.
He asks her to be better than Mama Mabel and Cornell.
And then they kiss!
Because theyre in love!
Shades tells Mariah that hell fix the situation, and everything will end up irie.
She and Shades make eyes at each other, reinforcing how much they dislike one another.
Naturally, it turns out that the Stylers have picked up Piranha.
Our heroes were too late.
Mariah replies (just like Cornell), that its not that simple.
She shows her daughter just how much their legacy is worth, in USD.
And it looks like Tilda is nearly swayed, but not before Ridenhour arrives to disrupt the mood.
Ridenhour wants her to throw Shades under the bus.
She shuts down, and asks Ridenhour for time to think her options through.
Now he owns her fortune.
He owns the nightclub.
So Mariah deduces that its time to leave, and she starts making arrangements accordingly.
When we see Bushmaster next, hes being fitted for a suit.
A McIver like my father, he says.
Never a puppet or a slave.
Bushmaster tells his uncle that he wont let go until he gets everything owed to him.
His uncle asks what he really wants, and Bushmaster says he wants Mariahs soul for his mothers.
If you want to erase sorrow, you must burn it.
When he asks his uncle why he isnt angrier, he tells him that he cant bring Gwen back.
Earlier that day, theyd talked about the possibility of a snitch over brunch.
And it isnt two minutes later before Shadesdoesdiscover them, having tailed Comanche.
Shades shoots them both.
Shades tells Comanche that he didnt want out, and Comanche tells Hernan, You my nigga.
Shades tells him that he loves Comanche.
What the hell does that say about me?
he asks, and shoots Comanche a second time.
As hes cleaning up the scene, Mariahs in the process of being shepherded away by Bushmaster.
They shot one another.
It took Buggy Stokes five months to die.
But Stokes also trailed Bushmasters mother back to Jamaica, and set her home on fire with Bushmaster inside.
To end the circle, Bushmaster sets Mariahs own home on fire but not before untying Tilda.
He leaves her with a choice: Lets see if youre a better daughter than I was a son.
Luke arrives at the scene of Mariahs burning home, and proceeds to, uh, stare.
But, eventually (when he gets around to it, I guess!
), Luke does go inside, where he and Tilda manage to save Mariah from the embers.
