‘Sistas’ Season 2 Episode 5: Will possible Andi-Paris, Sabrina-Jacobi and Fatima-Zac romance bring more drama?
Spoilers for 'Sistas' Season 2
Tyler Perry's 'Sistas' almost exclusively has an intense relationship drama. Of course, there's' some criminal activity, sisterly bonding, among other social themes, but mainly we're all here for the relationship drama. We're not even embarrassed to say it considering every episode is hell-bent on having more and more of it.
After this week's episode 'Up in Flames', we can't help but wonder if the possibility of new romances could fuel even more drama. And, if so, what could go down? We have three possible relationships in mind, so let's break that down.
Andi and Paris
Andrea "Andi" Barnes (KJ Smith) went to visit Gary Marshall Borders (Chido Nwokocha) in jail only to be blindsided by the fact that the man was sitting there still jealous of Hayden (Chris Warren), the lawyer Andi had asked to help Gary. Gary doesn't have too many good characteristics — he is a criminal, he is dangerously protective, he is vocally abusive and at times treats Andi like property.
The entire season so far had us wondering why Andi was still running back to him, but it seems that at the end of this episode, she might have come to her senses. Even after Andi told him that he shouldn't worry because it's her he's talking about, Gary told her that he will always be jealous over what's his.
He also told her that he doesn't want her to leave him, and didn't want her to speak to other men. To this, Andi replied, "Well, you don't have much of a choice, do you?" Of course, she gave it to him straight calling him out on "f*cking" her life up.
In the beginning of this episode, we also saw Paris Johnson (Sean Poolman) ask Andi out, and well, next week's episode promo sees Andi not only being done with Gary but also inviting Paris to Maurice's (Brian Jordan Jr) party. So there is a high chance that the Andi and Paris romance could kick-off since it looks like Gary and Andi are done. Now, for the consequences.
Andi has always, for some reason, ran back to Gary, and while we hope this time it's different, she may be a tad bit stuck. Gary had given her cash in a bag after the FBI raided everything she owned, that cash is now in the bank Sabrina Hollins (Novi Brown) works at. Will Gary decide to take revenge after he finds out Andi is with another man?
With his dangerously jealous attributes, we don't see how this is unlikely. Not to mention, he could also rat Andi out to the FBI for having accepted the cash he sent her. Gary's dealings have always been shady, and he and Andi are still connected according to the FBI — so we're assuming a lot of intense drama with this tortured relationship.
Fatima and Zac
Fatima (Crystal Hayslett) is one of our favorite characters on the series and has also helped Andi through her ordeal with the FBI and Gary. But, now we get to see Fatima flirting a little with Zac — she even bailed him out of jail when Karen Mott (Ebony Obsidian) wouldn't. This we have to say is currently our favorite ship. Karen has been toying with Zac's feelings a while now, and the man has been willing to change his life around for Karen.
This is not to say that he hasn't messed up (a lot) in the past, but Karen and her indecisive attitude had her chasing pastor Aaron Carter (Kevin A. Walton) and leaving Zac in the dark. We already know that Zac is extremely hostile towards Aaron, it is in fact what got Zac in jail, so we're thinking that a possible romance with Fatima would help him move on from the toxicity that comes with Karen and Aaron.
Just to be clear, Karen isn't with Aaron officially either — it's a whole mess. But, Maurice's upcoming party could cause some real chaos. No one knows that Zac and Fatima are friends, let alone that she bailed him out of jail - they have been in their little new friendship bubble alone and that was refreshing. We're also sure that Zac won't quickly forget Karen and jump into it with Fatima.
So, with Andi inviting Fatima to the party and Fatima being with Zac at dinner, along with Aaron tagging along with Karen to the party, we can only imagine the drama that could ensue. Andi and Daniella "Danni" King (Mignon) warned Karen that she would regret not bailing Zac out of jail, calling her out on being wrong and lying to Zac about Aaron in the first place. So, we can foresee Karen either getting jealous or catching feelings with Zac again.
Their merry-go-round has had us dizzy for a while now, so we're hoping Zac moves on with Fatima and Karen tries to be alone for a bit to figure out her feelings.
Sabrina and Jacobi
Ah, the new guy! Jacobi (Skyh Alvester Black) is a new employee at the bank that Sabrina works at and she was given the task to train him. It's obvious and you don't have to look twice to notice how handsome the man is. Tyler Perry sure does pick the cast members wisely. Now we know that there has been some heat between Sabrina and Calvin Rodney (Anthony Dalton) who isn't bound by the "rules of masculinity" and has been sweet on Sabrina a while now.
There are even jokes courtesy of Maurice who says that at times he feels like Clavin is more interested in him than he is with Sabrina. But, we're liking this newfound possible love interest for Sabrina, who it seems this season has taken a tad bit of a back seat. While we do enjoy Calvin, we also enjoy the drama.
Calvin is the one that helped set up Maurice's party but Maurice asked Sabrina to invite Jacobi. So, if Jacobi does decide to come to the party, and hit it off with Sabrina, where does that leave Calvin? Either way, it looks like Calvin has some competition. It seems like the next episode is going to be one hell of a ride and we're wondering who will stay together and who will not.
'Sistas' Season 2 airs on Wednesdays on BET at 9 pm EST.
