'Queens' on ABC: Eve to Brandy, what have the cast been up to?

The episode opened with all of the friends and Eric crying in front of a gravestone in a graveyard with the exception of Brianna, which heavily implied that she didn't make it and had in fact died. The episode skipped three months forwards with saw Naomi (Brandy) and her family living in Brianna's house and saying that it's good the house stayed in the family. Throughout the whole episode, all women periodically mentioned that they missed Brianna and it looked like a done deal that this character would not be returning to the show.

But in the final moments of the episode, the makers pulled a fast one on the audience. After forming an independent label the friends give a call to someone and in a surprising moment, it was revealed to be none other than Brianna! The group member was not dead and was just chilling with her family probably on vacation on a beach. Fans who were beginning to accept that she was dead enjoyed her appearance and took to Twitter to react to her coming on screen.

A fan said, "I knew my bitch wasn’t dead she just on vacation #QueensABC", while a tweet read, "EVE LIVES!!!!!! Sis left that head with good & bad memories, took her damn kids & needed a fresh start!!! I love it!! She’ll be back #queensabc". A user also said, "That's right Bri is alive!!!!#QueensABC". 

Another fan joked, "I feel so played. #QueensABC", while one commented, "YAAAASSSSSS Briana is walking with her babies in paradise #QueensABC". Yet another tweet read, "You nasty b*tches y’all dirty for having us panic like that lmaooo #QueensABC". 

'Queens' returns to ABC every Tuesday night at 10 pm ET.
