Anita Unloads Her Guilt — and the Reunion is DOA
The ghosts of girl groups past are alive and kicking in Dupree Manor, where Anita finally lets Vernon in on the truth about the mysterious fourth Articulette — Barbara. Yep, Barbara was the reason the group even had a name. But according to Anita, Dante didn’t see much star power in her and basically erased her from the comeback narrative. Anita’s not sugarcoating it either: she says she killed Barbara just as surely as if she pulled the trigger herself.
And just when Vernon tries to throw her a lifeline with his whole “people mess up when they’re young” talk, Anita shuts it down. She doesn’t want comfort. She wants to marinate in her self-loathing. Cue the “no reunion” bombshell — the Articulettes are officially dead in the water. Vernon, bless his patient little heart, offers his undying support, but Anita’s made up her mind. Barbara’s memory isn’t getting a reunion tour encore.
Sharon Wants a Comeback, But Tracy’s Got a Conscience
Over at Orphey Gene’s, Sharon’s plotting like it’s 1999. Her grand plan? Use Anita as the bait to get back on stage, then yank the spotlight out from under her mid-chorus. Tracy, ever the buzzkill with a conscience, reminds Sharon that Barbara’s ghost is still lingering, and maybe a reunion built on lies is a bad idea. Sharon shockingly agrees to come clean — but that convo gets cut short when Vernon calls to say Anita’s pulled the plug.
Now Tracy and Sharon are stuck deciding whether to let the whole thing crumble or step in and try to revive it. If Anita’s not on board, they might just be harmonizing with their regrets.
Dani Keeps It Cool While Bill Breaks Down
Just when Dani was basking in post-argument bliss with Andre (who, by the way, wants a title upgrade from Mr. Right Now), she gets a hospital SOS from Naomi: Bill’s in trouble. Apparently, a mini-stroke might be looming, and Doug’s not playing — he wants full neuro evaluations. Bill, of course, is trying to make a break for it, but Dani shows up and immediately shuts him down with a side of tough love.
Dani tells him to cut the pride and follow doctor’s orders — and just like that, Bill softens. Naomi and Hayley are both stunned. Especially Hayley, who’s feeling just a tad threatened by Dani’s lingering hold on her man. But Dani’s not here for a romantic rerun. She just refuses to let Bill check out before she’s done being mad at him.
Bill tries to explain the connection they’ll always have, and Hayley fakes a smile — but it’s clear Dani still knows how to flip the switch in his brain. Nurse, we’re gonna need another ice pack.
Leslie Is Out Here Doing Her Own Investigation
Leslie is in full-on denial mode, serving up phony accents and lace-front wigs trying to weasel her way into hospital footage. Shanice shuts that circus down immediately, calling out Leslie on the spot. And when Leslie finds out Andre has the actual security video that could incriminate her? She turns the charm (and manipulation) up to eleven.
She plays it cool, even mocks the footage like she’s way too hot to be the mystery person. But Andre’s got moves of his own — he snaps a candid pic of her right there in the diner. Because who needs drama when facial recognition software can do the dirty work?
Kat’s Not Backing Down, Even If Jacob Says So
Over at the precinct, Kat is still trying to make “citizen detective” happen. She barges in with an update about Leslie threatening to sue her for defamation, but Jacob’s not impressed. He tells her to back off, again, and reminds her that there’s zero proof the jacket belongs to Leslie.
Still, he gets a warrant to search Leslie’s place, and Kat immediately takes full credit like she’s been personally endorsed by Olivia Benson. She even tries to tag along as a consultant — because of course she does — but Jacob shuts that fantasy down. Kat, being Kat, mutters a vow to take Leslie down with or without backup. Somebody get her a badge already… or at least a reality check.
Chelsea Finds a Mystery Woman — Then Loses Her
Meanwhile, Chelsea is living her best flirt life at Uptown, catching eyes with a sexy stranger. One cheesy pick-up line later, she’s deep in conversation with Madison — a woman who’s mysterious, flirty, and very light on personal info. But when Chelsea checks her phone and looks back up, poof — Madison’s gone like a rom-com cliffhanger. All we’re saying is… keep your eye on this one.
