Have you caught your breath yet from Ambitions season one episode four; “Reap What You Sew.”
Tick. Damn. Tock.
From the first tick to the last tock all we kept saying was d*mn, d*mn, d*mn! For the entire episode, there was non stop OMG, No They Didn’t, Say What? action!
If you have ever had a dream inside a dream you know how crazy they can get. Amara might need to modify her dinner diet. We don’t know what she had for dinner but her subconscious mind was in overdrive. Amara and Damian were having sex. Amara woke up (so she thought). She went downstairs and got an eyeful of her hubby, Titus, and Stephanie getting it in. We jumped at Amara’s blood-curling, “Get Off!” Well sis, if you would have stayed sleeping a little longer just maybe they would have. LOL.
Stephanie and her highlighted incriminated evidence against Damian (he knowingly let an innocent man go to jail because he wanted his wife) traveled to Birmingham to blackmail him. He either played ball, move to Atlanta and blow up Amara’s world, or Stephanie would blow up his. His choice. Yep, Damian came to Atlanta. But after seeing Stephanie’s presser where she announced that the Carlisle Perkins Law Firm had filed litigation against Purifoy Pharmaceuticals for $500,000,000.00, he realized he had greatly underestimated her. Newsflash, Stephanie wasn’t playing tiddlywinks trying to get back at her ex-BFF for stealing her man back in the day. That was just a bonus. Stephanie was out there playing chess, already several moves ahead, planning to get Titus off his game which would ultimately benefit her in the litigation. Hey, Stephanie isn’t totally heartless. She told Damian, if he wanted to he could have Amara in the end. Little does Stephanie know that “peeping Damian” is off his rocker. So, maybe not.
What’s the going price for a soul these days? An elite education, fancy shoes, and mo money. Titus thought not too bad we can handle this. That was until his boss, Hunter, ordered Titus to insure that Judge Milsap assigned a judge who was big pharma friendly to the case. Titus and his honorable intentions were “felt up” (padded down by Judge Milsap looking for a wire) and told that the price of a big pharma friendly judge was the exact amount the Judge needed to repair the hole in the roof of his lakehouse. Titus with his integrity, still intact, went back to Purifoy ready to resign. Hunter told Titus, slow your roll. It was test only a test. You passed! It looks like they just upped the ante for the price of a soul.
We are fascinated by Stephanie and Evan’s dynamic. Senior told Stephanie the selling of Thelma’s Place was a no-go and that both of his children had convinced him not to sell. One second Stephanie is gleefully telling Evan she was going to eat popcorn while watching Peters cut him into pieces. And then in the next second, they are conspiring on how to rule Atlanta and Georgia. Fascinating.
Bella influenced by her girlfriend Perla (you know this happens all the time) to do what was best for her and her son and not to worry about Evan decided to play her ace, their sex videotape. Evan was wooing Marvin Barnes trying to convince him to move Beta Nu Electric manufacturing facilities from China to Atlanta when Bella sent him the vid. Evan and Bella had a clandestine confrontation. Bella told Evan she was done taking a back seat. She was going for hers. Evan told her, “Don’t cross me, you will lose.” My goodness, when Bella got home Evan had hit Bella up for everything he ever bought her. (We called it our “OWN” Orange Juice Jones moment. Y’all youngins Google.) She couldn’t even call nobody; Evan had taken the phone off too. Come on, Evan! She does have your son. You could have left her with phone service!
Bella, with the silk dress she made for Stephanie, beelined it to Daphne’s place to pitch Daphne’s vote/support for Bella to secure a space at the airport for a Bella Tru Boutique. Yes, it was “ambitious”. But hey in her defense she didn’t have a phone to call her. LOL. Daphne pointed out the obvious. It was highly inappropriate for Bella to be there. Bella stayed only long enough to briefly make her case and left the dress and the proposal. Nice Bella Tru box! Maybe Bella should have stayed. Evan was there! Child Child Child. Yes, we knew they were lovers. But Lawd we were blown away with the reveal of 50 Shades of Evan! Daphne told Evan (who had peeked his head out of the door to see who had been there) he had to get his girl in check. Evan was like I got that but I didn’t come over here to talk about her. Stress, I need you to relieve my stress.
The doors parted and we saw their fully equipped playroom! Evan and Daphne derobed. The Mayor of Atlanta adorned a harness AND a thong! Daphne cracked her whip and commanded Evan to; Assume The Position!
OMG! OMG! OMG! We gonna assume our position next week in front of our TV to see what happens next! Ambitions kicked it up several notches. We are here for it! We are ready!
