Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Theo and Paulina went to Jada’s office to talk to her about the blackout and looting. Paulina put a curfew into effect. It turned out that EJ and the hospital were responsible for the blackout. Jada planned to make him pay for what he did. Paulina said he was already suffering, and Jada was thrilled to hear it. She said that he was stuck in an elevator, and she planned to make sure he stayed there. Theo went to get Paulina’s phone and ran into JJ. He panicked and froze when JJ wanted him to turn around. Theo stared at JJ. JJ realized who he was, and Theo snapped at him. He told JJ that he was doing what he did before when he shot him. If JJ had a gun on him, Theo would be dead. Theo told him that he saw a black man at the wrong place at the wrong time, and he gets on the offensive. JJ denied his accusation, but Theo continued to rip into him. He wanted to talk to Theo because something felt off between them. Theo agreed that something was off which was why he didn’t talk to him in almost a year. He was upset with JJ ever since he rejoined the police force. JJ told him that he quit because he didn’t have the best judgment when he was a cop. Theo didn’t think his judgment changed since he returned to the force. Belle woke up and realized she was still trapped with EJ. She didn’t hesitate to tell him that she regretted getting involved with him. EJ reminded her that she showed up at the hospital to see him. Belle refused to admit that she still wanted him. She started having an asthma attack and blamed EJ. He felt wounded and pulled back from her.
Sarah and Xander enjoyed their time together. They believed the blackout was the best thing to happen to them. Their reunion could be short lived since Xander didn’t want to try couples’ therapy. Sarah refused to let him back out of getting therapy. He reluctantly agreed to work things out. They were hoping they could stay in bed together as long as the power stayed out. Unfortunately for them, the power came back on. EJ panicked and called for help. Belle’s asthma seemed to get worse. EJ tried to help her calm down and agreed that they were done for good. The power returned and they got out of the elevator. They shared an awkward goodbye before she headed home. Gwen sent EJ a text informing him that his electrician caused the blackout. Paulina was worried about where Theo went. Jada wondered if he was okay. The power came back on in the office. Paulina was about to tell Jada about Theo when he returned. He told Jada that his concerns about JJ were warranted after what happened during the blackout. Theo told Jada that she needed to talk to JJ about racial profiling. He let Paulina know that he wanted to go home. JJ pulled out his badge and stared at it.
