The previous episode of Tyler Perry's long-running soap opera 'The Haves and the Have Nots' Season 7 ended on a teasing cliffhanger that left many worried for the Cryer progeny, Wyatt. Dumb as dirt as he might be, the only thing that kept fans worried for Wyatt's fate was the fact that despite getting shot, there was a high chance he was going to come back to life. Well, fans weren't wrong. Wyatt's very much alive and even more so, back with his bulls**t. 

According to the official synopsis for the upcoming Episode 16 of Season 7, "Wyatt's addiction leaves him spiraling." Now that' only possible if Wyatt were still alive so the coffin on that has been nailed. But with Wyatt being alive, what might shock some the most is how resilient the character is withstanding come what may in the face of death. There really is no killing him, now that he has survived a bullet wound from Vinny Rose and whatnot. But is this the end of Wyatt's woes?

Wyatt being alive could be at a number of places including somewhere the Roses might have disposed his body off, assuming he was dead and all that. But considering the synopsis teases Wyatt's addiction, looks like he has a steady supply of drugs after all. So maybe he comes back to life in Rose's custody, and spiral further under his addiction which would turn him more docile and complying with the Roses and what they want. Considering Wyatt had also shot Vinny, how forgiving the Roses will be is still as good a guess as any, but it's been firmly established that no matter where Wyatt wakes up, the addiction is going to have the better of him. Even if the Roses don't get him, his addiction surely will.

Elsewhere in the how, concern raises for Hanna Young too as Veronica Harrington starts dreaming the man of her dreams professing his love for the other woman, and that can never be good for anyone. You don't get away with scorning the Ice Queen V, it's just not acceptable or the way things work in the world of 'The Haves and the Have Nots'.

'The Haves and the Have Nots' airs on Tuesdays at 8 pm only on OWN.
