IT'S ALL ABOUT BAE...

IT ALL COMES CRASHING DOWN...

BROTHER IN THE STREETS...

MY SISTA LIKES THUGS...
With no upstanding man as an example of what to look for in a mate, her younger sister becomes infatuated with thugs, goons, and savages. This results in abusive relationships, physical, and mental stress, that could ultimately destroy the woman she becomes.
WOMAN OF THE HOUSE...

While getting adjusted to the environment, the former valedictorian, a racist named Jennifer Tanderbuilt, tries to ruin her chances at a future.
