Episode 316 Recap: "The Heart of a Man"

Jeffery brings Melissa to the unsettling nursery his mother prepared for them and confronts her, hoping to devise a way out of Veronica's plan for them. Jeffery scoffs at Melissa for agreeing to Veronica's money terms, but Melissa reminds him that she's only accepting the money to help her parents. Jeffery is determined to find a way to outfox his manipulative mother but has yet to develop a plan.

Melissa gives Jeffery an ultimatum: find another way to get money for her parents or fake their marriage. Jeffery refuses to live a lie.

"If you can find a way to get me out of this with some money for my parents, then I will take that bitch of a mother down with you," Melissa says.
