With only 3 weeks left to graduate and pick a college, Jermaine is still in the street life. However, Malcolm still is maintaining a 4.2 GPA in school. He finally decided on a college to go to. He was looking at HBCUs and wanted to go to one of them. But he applied for Yale as a joke, not thinking he was going to get in. But he did. So now Malcolm is graduating as Valedictorian and going to Yale. Nia is super proud of him. Almost more than she is of her own son. Malcolm knows that La'Shanda is looking down, smiling at him. Nia is noticing that Jermaine is slipping but isn't questioning it because she believes her son will get it together like he always has. She doesn't know that her son Jermaine is in the street life yet.
As Jermaine is making drops and selling drugs, he sees someone. They are a far distance away from him so he's not that sure on who it is. They walk closer, he walks closer. He makes the person out to be Chelsea. He is mad confused on wtf Chelsea is doing there. She hands Jermaine a yellow envelope. He opens the envelope and sees that Chelsea has been stalking him selling drugs. She has pictures, videos, everything incriminating to put him away. Chelsea looks at Jermaine and says "You either be with me, or be with yo daddy." Jermaine is ready to punch her in her face but he doesn't. He threw the evidence in her face and told Chelsea that they can work it out. Little does Chelsea know, Jermaine is plotting on her.
Jermaine goes home and calls Amariah aka "Pookie" and tells her what Chelsea did. Pookie and Jermaine have a close relationship as they grew up together. They are cousins, each other's favorite cousin. They tell each other everything. Jermaine tells Pookie the situation with Chelsea and Pookies says "aww hell nah, where that lil bitch at, me and my girl Keke finna pull up on her. She not finna blackmail my favorite cousin, HELL NAW!" Pookie and Keke pull up on Jermaine. Keke secretly swipes his gun away from him. Jermaine gives Chelsea whereabouts to Pookie and Keke and Pookie waits for the night time before her and Keke, her best friend, her day one, her ride or die, Kiara aka Keke to creep up on Chelsea. Pookie starts to confront Chelsea verbally but real loudly and aggressively. Chelsea at first was very quiet and then Chelsea started to get rowdy with Pookie and Keke. Calling them all out of their name, telling them to mind their business, saying she would beat their ass, stuff like that. Chelsea then winds up her fist like she is going to hit Pookie so Keke pull out Jermaine's gun and looked at Chelsea and said "What's the fuckin procedure when you have a gun to your head? Chelsea, do we have a problem?" Keke Lowkey, maybe highkey waited on this moment so she could live out her Nicki Minaj moment. Pookie looks at Keke and tells her to put the gun down and handle this shit like women. Keke puts the gun down and Chelsea isn't talking crazy anymore and she says "Okay, I won't blackmail Jermaine anymore but don't be surprised if he ends up in jail." Keke looks at her and rolls her eyes and whips Chelsea with the gun just one good time on her head for her head to bleed. Pookie then yells "GET YO ASS OUTTA HERE LIL BTC. NEXT TIME WE GONE KILL YOU." They then heard police sirens so they went back to Jermaine's house to tell him the issue may or may not be solved, we will see in the near future and Pookie spends the night with Jermaine and Malcolm at Nia's house while Keke caught an uber back to her home.
