Lorenzo's freedom does nothing for Monet, and seeing as how Diana was the one directly responsible for it, Diana's gotten the brunt of all Monet's anger about a potential new life seemingly ripped away from her overnight.ĭiana has had the most remarkable character growth this season, really growing into herself and fighting back against the boxes everyone tries to put her in. She spent time teaching her and molding her, but when Lorenzo's release blindsided her, it's like it suddenly clicked for her that Diana wasn't who she needed her to be. Choosing to put them in a role rather than parent them.īut her absolute disdain for Diana seems mainly rooted in the fact that she can't control her. And she often treats her children like accessories and not people. Monet isn't what you would call a warm person. Because there were A LOT of things that happened and indirectly led to Carrie's death. And considering what had just transpired in the courtroom earlier, it's a storyline that would seem plausible, though it'll be interesting to see the fallout. When he's given time on screen to dig into Davis and just let him be, he nails it every time.Ĭarrie's subsequent ending wasn't surprising, though the ambiguity of it all does leave room for some trickery should the series decide to do so.īut as it stands, it would appear that Monet killed Carrie and then made it look like a suicide. Method Man excelled in those courtroom scenes, displaying just the right amount of tenacity and charisma that has been a staple of his acting career. Milgram, how many lies have you told to cover up your relationship with Zeke Cross? Or Jabari Reynolds? Or Kevin Whitman? Or with me?ĭavis ripped her apart limb by limb, not even afraid to expose his indiscretions, as a means of showing the jury just how interconnected Carrie was to the case. Though, in retrospect, and when you get to the final frame of the hour, it's clear this was her mini-redemption tour before she met her demise.ĭavis: Let me ask, Ms. But she did seem to take Tariq's words to heart. Getting on the stand would always end terribly for Carrie, and she should have known that. And he immediately thought of a way in which he could not only help himself but also Lauren. Learning she would betray him threw Tariq for a loop, but Tariq is nothing if not his father's son. She only saw the version of Tariq he wanted her to see, and therefore their whole relationship wasn't based in reality. But he was never going to be fully honest with her, and thus he was never his true self with her. Of all Tariq's many romantic prospects, it was always apparent that his heart was with Lauren the most. But that's not what happened because Davis skirted the rules in a way that only Davis could. Naturally, the first time Tariq heard back, the recording should have been in the courtroom, with Lauren there to corroborate its authenticity. It wasn't as if Tariq ever told Lauren straight up about any of his crimes, but it would be pretty damaging for the jury to hear because it gives a motive as to why Tariq would have wanted Jabari dead. do not produce off spring darker than both of them.my sister watched the first season and once she saw Lorenzo, she was like, "I'm thinking all the kids were adopted".Lauren could have easily played Di, Or Effie for that matter and Cane, Zeke and Dru should have been played by three light skinned blacks or dark Hispanic needs to be more believable, even with the character choices.otherwise, it would also be cool to see Monet less angry all the time.every black woman is not perpetually crazy or mad about something.that stereotype is so tired.but, Tariq's character is doing well, hopefully they do some different things with his character outside of him constantly being in the cross hairs of the police, if that's all it's going to be, it's going to become redundant and boring.he's supposed to be better than Ghost, smarter…so let's see it.I would love to a season where Tariq is completely off the radar of the cops, doing what college students do and actually graduating and moving on to something legit.not every story needs to end tragically.even in real life there's plenty of people that escape the game and move in.The introduction of the recording of Tariq via Lauren was a shock to Davis and Tariq himself. Season two was awesome! I'm just annoyed with Effie, she ratted Tariq out when they were at Choate but killed Lauren for the wire.she killed Lauren because she wanted Tariq.I'm also quite perturbed with the cast choices, a brown skinned African American female (Monet) and white Latino (Lorenzo).
