In this game, youre often to get down and dirty.
Raq killed the loudmouth super months ago.
Although he struggles and has a few missteps, Marvin packages the supers body nicely for Raq.
She and Kanan take an impromptu mother-son camping trip to the Catskill Mountains.
Her goals for the trip are simple: get closer to her son and get rid of the body.
Raq leaves Marvin with some simple instructions, no more runs out to Jersey until I get back.
But unfortunately for Raq, Sals men were two steps ahead of her.
Theyve been keeping surveillance on the Thomas-Stark family.
Their plans for Raqs trip are also quite simple: distract Kanan and kill Raq.
Luckily for Kanan, the Italians have a no killing kids.
The theme of surveillance is neatly woven throughout episode five.
In the end, we learn that if you spy, you better be prepared for whatever you find.
It is pretty obvious that a romantic relationship will develop between the two.
But Timmons uses Marvins lack of participation in their group sessions as an excuse for meeting with him privately.
He begins to slowly open up about Juke.
I aint a sick motherfucker.
Im just a dumb motherfucker, he tells Timmons.
Im not 100 percent sure what Marvin would want with Toni.
Maybe he misses her?
Im sure this wont be the last time we see a sneak peek of the bougie publicists life.
Detective Burke wont let trying to solve the shooting go.
Burke relies on intimidating interrogation techniques to get Andrea to talk.
After finding out about Andreas loose lips, Detective Howard cuts her off.
Like his partner, hes been doing some surveillance of his own.
Whats the saying in most Black churches, that girl can sannnggg.
On the way to the mountains, the car ride is awkward for Raq and Kanan.
He doesnt trust his mother, causing a wedge in their relationship.
Because hes unable to express his true feelings to Raq, Kanan has opted to avoid her.
Kanan shares that hes been kicking it with a young lady in Famous building.
Before things get crazy, Raq and Kanan are able to bond over smores and alcohol.
I brought you out here to talk to you.
Shes also able to reset the trust button and start fresh.
No secrets between us.
No lies, no side hustles.
We share everything, she says.
The look on Kanans face says hes wise enough not to trust his mother completely.
Now that Kanan is all in, Raq tasks him with helping her bury the supers body.
The moment forces Kanan to see his mother in a different light.
However, he doesnt budge or show fear, and he gets the job done.
Raq outsmarts one of Sals guys and Kanan manages to handle himself while fighting off the other.
As Kanan puts it, there are times you dont even have to say shit.
Its better to keep your mouth closed and your eyes open.
