'The Haves and the Have Nots' Season 7 Episode 14 Preview: What demons are the Youngs forced to face?
Trust Tyler Perry's seven-year-long soap opera 'The Haves and the Have Nots' to continue surprising us even after all this time on the second half of its Season 7. Having recently returned from their mid-season break with a hilarious twisted take on the Young family's predicament, Episode 14, titled 'Someone Special' is going to get all kinds of dark and disturbing for the Young family.
With an official synopsis ominous as ever, once can't quite help but worry what demons the family will have to tackle in the upcoming episode? According to Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), Season 7B's Episode 14 will see the "The Young family members forced to face their demons." What demons are these? Could it be one by the name of Derrick?
In the previous episode, we saw Benny Young manage to squeeze out information about his mother, Hanna's rapist. It was the same man who's been cutting Hanna in the majority of Season 7, and his name is Derrick. While he claims to have redeemed himself from his past self, Derrick disappeared after Hanna asked him to leave — respectfully complying with her wishes.
Benny being Benny, however, can't shake that rage off his shoulder upon finding out not only did his mom's new boyfriend rape her but is also his half-sister Candance's father. So Benny goes off to Veronica first to seek answers about Derrick's whereabouts and from there he was directed to another person by the absolute new randomer in their lives — Alissa.
Alissa claimed a friend of hers might know where or who exactly Derrick is and while Benny went in person to dig out information, his mother Hanna might have the answers to the questions they are riddled with. At the end of the episode, after the break-in at the Cryer's mansion, Hanna feels obligated to go check out who tried robbing her employer's home.
To her shock, she identifies the man as Derrick, even though earlier in the episode, when the cops approach Jim Cryer in the hospital, he sees Wyatt breaking into the house. The discrepancy is a secret Episode 14 might or might not immediately address, but based on the synopsis looks like the Youngs are truly going to be facing their worst demons in the form of Derrick.
On one hand, there's Candance, who is interested in connecting with her biological father, even though she knows she was a child from him assaulting her mother. On the other, there's Hanna's trauma surrounding the tragedy and Benny's absolute rage over this man's abhorrent crimes of the past. Derrick might claim to be a changed man, but his presence is sure to swirl up some deep dark family tension with conflicting emotions on the rise. And if that isn't a gigantic demon to face...
'The Haves and the Have Nots' Season 7 airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on OWN.
