Queen Sugar Recap: No Haven in My Shadow

Queen Sugar / Season 3 Episode 4 / OWN At the end of the last episode, Darla rolled up to see Blue, and she and Ralph Angel stared at each other. Their silence spoke volumes. Now, we begin with them sitting silently in the living room until Blue comes running in with some of drawings he made at school to give to Darla.

She glances at Ra and says she can’t come this time but will be around for his birthday party. After he’s sent on a mission to get crayons, Ralph Angel and Darla finally talk. He says he’s glad she’s there and that he misses her–and frankly, I’m impressed that he’s honest since we’ve seen him have a hard time being vulnerable in the past. But then, maybe now with things the way they are, there’s nothing left to be vulnerable about. When he asks Darla how long she’s planning to stay, she drops a bit of a bombshell. She’s here to stay. Ralph Angel is taken aback and doesn’t know how they’re going to make this work, but Darla makes it clear they’re going to have to figure it out. “As long as he’s in St. Jo, I’m in St. Jo.” Photo Credit: Skip Bolen / @2018 Warner Bros.
