Spoilers for 'The Chi' Season 3 Episode 5 'Terror Town'

Four episodes following Kiesha Williams's (Birgundi Baker) disappearance, 'Terror Town' finally showed us to a shocked and disturbed Kiesha who was kidnapped by a mystery man. It was a disturbing sight as the teen was clearly in shock and this had fans watching the show distraught. She was last seen in the season opener, 'Foe' 'Nem' and her disappearance has been a key storyline in the series ever since.

On their part, fans on social media had trouble forgetting the opening scene of 'Terror Town'. "Wtf is she apart of a sex trafficking ring? #TheChi," a fan asked. "Kiesha yo why didn’t you put the track skills to work sis? You were supposed to run like your life depended on it. #TheChi" remarked another. "I just finished that episode of The Chi and Keshia just blew the fuck outta me," a fan wrote. "I knew Keisha got abducted #TheCHI," added a fan.

One of the major storylines in the episode was Kiesha's attempt to escape when a blackout occurs on the south side. Despite breaking the door open and finally managing to get out, Kiesha, instead of making her getaway, she waits to sob with relief and that was enough for her abductor to take nab her again. This though didn't sit well with the fans. 

"I can't believe Keisha on #TheChi didn't just RUN!!! That's her superpower. OMG. I was screaming at the screen when she just laid there crying on that damn grass. GIRL GET UP AND RUN!!!!! I'm so over this shit. It's like Friday the 13th movies all over again!!" a fan tweet read. "Keisha if you don’t get up and run like you be doing during Track #TheChi," a fan wrote. "This Keisha would've taken a trophy, cracked the kidnapper in the head, and RAN. I’m still disturbed... Lord, please get my girl out of that dungeon! My head hurts... I lost my voice. This is devastating! #thechi" a fan tweet read.
