I liked the finale

 

[nightwing2016]

Leon starting all that shyt and now sitting off on the side with the

Really though, he caused all this drama and now he is sitting their quiet as a church mouse

 

[Benefited]

I don't have an answer for that one. Saint definitely wasn't a CIA agent. I'll go back to check how he initially met Reid and their reactions. I know Avi was the common factor on both sides. Saint wanting to step up. Reid trying to maintain his cover.

A lot of that "dream sequence" appeared to be real events. I'll eventually go back and rewatch the 1st season again, now knowing what we know.

I mentioned earlier that I think it might be mixture of reality and alternate possibilities which I think alternate reality usually is. We know Wanda and Leon didn't have a child together either irrc. Also we know his mother didn't actually want him selling drugs,but she did in the alternative timeline. The part I don't understand is why show a alternate reality that still wasn't a very happy alternative. Auntie was the only one telling Franklin not to sell drugs,but in reality she helped Leon sell his first ki. Wanda telling Franklin to take Leon back to school to make something of himself,she looked like she was a working woman. In this reality Franklin took Leon into the drug game with him,and Wanda became a crack head. Honestly can't say it was neccessary,and probably would have fit better in a mid season episode. Maybe if I watch season 1 will have a better appreciation. I think he did quit school but I don't remember the reason he quit,that part might have been reality. I'm not mad at the episode,just not really sure of the point of the first part of it yet.

Fukk what y’all talking they would’ve been better off just adapting the book

Franklin is officially a CIA operative

This wayyyyyy better then that book. Get it Freeway Rick dikk. This show is way bigger then that mf now

 

[Fukwatutalkinwatisaylaw]

They really fukked this episode up.. They shoulda ended it last week.. Tha fukk

Spoke too soon I thought tha tha shoot out was the end cuz they cut to commercial... I understand he was in a parallel universe.. That's what tha teacher was talkin bout in class

And that’s really the crux here: that no matter what Franklin does, no matter how hard black boys work to pull themselves out of difficult situations, they still have a seemingly insurmountable number of obstacles to contend with. From racism to bureaucracy to racism disguised as bureaucracy, there’s simply no clear path for someone who looks like Franklin. He’s literally bused back home, his opportunity to transform himself vanishing as the night creeps in.

It’s powerful stuff. Back home, Franklin wanders around his community, turning down Jerome’s offer to get in on the weed business, and then receiving a visit from Teddy, who tells him that if he ever wants to work for the CIA, he’d be there to help him along. The possibilities here are intriguing, and there’s at least the hint of another, more positive life. Turning down Jerome is just the first step though, and there’s no telling where Franklin will end up. In this alternate timeline, he still ends up with a gun in his face, though this time around Andre is there to save him.

Weak finale. The gang shyt at the end saved it.

 

[Ol’Otis]

@KingBenji they done went into some twilight zone type shyt

 

[Token Moltisanti]

If there was one more episode next week i wouldn’t have no type of problem with this. I actually enjoyed all the connections they made using all three seasons.

 

[WeInHere]

I thought it was a great episode. Shows the audience what the other life looks like. Shows the struggles on the other side. I think it's dope because we all think about the what-ifs in life.
Details on Mel woulda been nice but the way they ended it was slick. The aftermath with the government involved in the next season. I'm satisfied. Great show

 

[Bathing Ape]

I'm glad gangs in so nikkas can shut up

 

[Mandarin Duck]

It was....okay.

Like someone said earlier I wouldn't have mined as much if it was split down the middle.
First half dream sequence second half being what happen after Franklin got shot.

But I'm curious as to why they didn't bring back Kevin since in the dream sequence Franklin never killed him.

 

[SuburbanPimp]

Yeah, bruhs I'm

So I actually liked the flashback/dream sequence.... But im still confused, I always wondered about his back story. But it was too many elements to make me think it's fake. Leon and Wanda had baby, Auntie was pregnant, Reid being at his school and randomly visiting him at home, and Andre shooting Karvel....

Then we get back to real time, or fast forward. Were Manboy and Skully shooting at each other one crip, one blood or were they shooting up Leon hood...

I'm treating the episode before as the true season final.. Like I said, I didn't think the episode itself was bad but I think they went a lil too far left. I'ma definitely watch it a few more times. I appreciated that they stuck with just Franklin storyline, but damn they could have at least told us what happened to Mel being she was probably the most compelling character for the last 3-4 episodes

 

[Mandarin Duck]

Oh my. Now we see why Leon took Wanda becoming a crackhead so personally.

Yea it's pretty easy to tell that Wanda was to Leon what Mel was to Franklin.

My question is: Did they show what sparked the beef between Manboy and Skully in a previous episode? Or are we to take that as drug dealers/opposing gang members fighting over territory?

 

[Mandarin Duck]

Yeah, bruhs I'm

It's an alternative reality where Franklin doesn't sell coke and the government (Reed) sees an intelligent black kid with potential and decides to aid him as oppose to introducing him to a more negative lifestyle.

We are supposed to look at this as the way that their lives could have been had cocaine not been introduced.

Leon and Wanda had a baby because Wanda wasn't a fiend.
Franklin's aunt and uncle had a baby because they still only selling weed and not as deep into the drug game as coke got them.
Reed isn't selling coke to fund the Contras.

The interesting thing is that it doesn't show some magical world where everybody's life is simply "better" because crack doesn't exist
Everybody was still dealing with the trials and tribulations of coming from where they are from, but crack made things so much more worse.
