Because so much goes down, we must go in order!

Lets get into it!

The episode opens up with Dante showering Monet with an expensive gift.

The two are relaxing on a boat, and it is clear that he is obsessed with his Nae-Nae.

As they discuss their plans to kill Lorenzo, Dante presents a suggestion that alters the plans.

I know what youre thinking, here goes STARZ recycling the same damn storyline AGAIN!

He vents to Effie about it.

Effie enjoys every bit of Tariqs emotional vulnerability.

At court, Davis, Saxe, and Tariq find out that Trace will testify against him.

Tariq knows that Trace can tie him, Cane, and Ramirez, together.

He calls Brayden and gets only his voicemail.

Meanwhile, Zeke meets up with Dante.

Dante shows him his collection of fancy cars while Zeke explains to him that he doesnt trust Monet.

The plan is to meet at the hangar.

Monet meets Cane at the park and explains to him that he has to kill Lorenzo.

Cane is not with it and thinks shes tripping.

Thats his father!!!

Cane tells her that Dru and Diana will kill him.

To get him on board, Monet messes with Canes ego.

She suggests they need Tariq since he killed his father.

Hearing that the person he envies the most was able to kill their father, Cane accepts the job.

Little do we know that Monet is playing both Cane and us.

She doesnt really want him to kill Lorenzo, though she cant tell Cane that yet.

Tariqs defense team is blindsided.

If staying ten toes down was a person, it would be Brayden.

He protected both his brother and Tariq, and technically he told the truth on the stand.

Saxe and Davis demand that the case be dismissed.

Apparently everyone is pissed because Tariq is not feeling Davis.

He credits Brayden with getting his charges dropped, not Davis, and asks for a refund.

He also calls out Davis for accepting money from the Tejadas on behalf of Cane.

Tariqs main focus is getting back to his sister, so he doesnt put too much energy into Davis.

Speaking of alive, the truth about Lauren comes out.

Jenny tells Saxe that Lauren died in a car accident while leaving town.

The car had no plates and Lauren had a bag full of cash.

She warns him of becoming an accomplice and admits that their careers hinder them from having a real relationship.

While Saxe picks his jaw up off the bar, Monet tells Tariq the real plan to kill Mecca.

Tariq tells her everything he knows about Mecca and his real identity.

Tariq agrees to help Monet kill Mecca but tells her that he needs him alive to get Meccas money.

He also shares with her that he wants out of the game.

Monet agrees to this.

She heads over to the bar to fill in Lorenzo on the plan to kill Mecca.

Monet tells her husband about Dante snitching, kidnapping Cane, and instructing Cane to kill him.

For Monets plan to work, everyone has to play their part.

If not, Mecca will kill Cane and probably the entire Tejada family.

He visits detective Whitman and inquires about Carries case.

The detective tells him the evidence shows she committed suicide, and no other information has come up yet.

Tariq finally gets some good news.

His trust fund attorney Warren was able to stop Yasmines adoption and revert custody back to Tariq.

The good news lasts for a split second.

Saxe joins the two and tells Tariq that Lauren is dead.

He realizes that Tariq had no idea and asks Tariq if he believes it was really a car accident.

Tariq is heartbroken, confused, and unsure.

Davis asks if Saxe got the Theo Rollins case.

Saxe tells him, based on the case files, Theo is innocent.

Not surprisingly, prosecutors suppressed evidence.

Davis fails to mention to Saxe that Rollins is his brother who is dying in prison.

For some reason, Tariq keeps venting to Effie.

This time he questions whether or not hes the right person for her.

Everyone around him either ends up dead or sent away.

This isnt the life he wants for his sister.

So he puts a plan in motion.

With the help of Saxe and Tameka, Yasmine is reunited with their mother and placed in witness protection.

Yup, you read that right!

The reunited mother-daughter pair relocates to Indiana.

While all of this is happening, Tariq secretly watches Saxe from the back of an SUV.

After Zeke visits him, detective Whitman a visit, he looks further into Carries case.

Before you know it, its game time.

Tariq and Cane set their plan in motion.

Cane thinks hes there to kill Lorenzo, but Tariq fills him in.

They are really there to take out Meccas soldiers.

The shootout scene is bananas!

Tariq gets a body; Cane gets a body; Lorenzo gets multiple bodies!

They kill all of Meccas soldiers, including McVey.

When she informs her papi that she saw bank accounts for the kids and Monet.

Lorenzo questions whether Monet ran off with Mecca and leaves.

Thinking the person walking towards the plane is Mecca, Lorenzo follows and kills ZEKE!

Soon after, Monet gets a call from Whitman, who informs her that Zeke is dead!

With Lauren dead, Mecca dead, and Carrie dead, is all fair in love and war?
