Kylo’s (Jon Beavers) decision to post Hilary’s (Coco Jones) lingerie-clad cooking tutorial became profitable as it went viral.

Although he initially convinced her to continue producing the content, she realized it didn’t fit her brand and attempted to pull out of the contract. However, Hilary’s choice put her in $50,000 of debt to the influencer and hotels as she didn’t want to return to her parents’ pool house.

Meanwhile, Will’s (Jabari Banks) mother and Vivian’s (Cassandra Freeman) sister Vy (April Parker Jones) came to visit, ready to tell her son about his father, Lou, against Banks’ wishes.

She revealed their history, admitting he conned her and left her after Will’s birth. Additionally, Vy and Vivian’s tense relationship came to a head, with the Philadelphia native admitting she felt abandoned by her sister after Viv became an artist.
