It’s here, the moment that has been hyped on the show almost as much as The Articulettes reunion. Winterfest. In Friday’s episode, WinterFest begins, and special guest Damone Roberts helps the Duprees prepare for the event. Damone is known for his work on eyebrows, and eyebrows will be raised today! This event just cannot go off without a hitch, and we are here for it all.

Can anything shock us anymore

In Friday's episode, Anita (Tamara Tunie) makes a shocking announcement. Hold on, soap fans, as we may be about to be rocked with a health scare. Anita had a doctor's appointment she had told no one about, and we only found out when Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix) ran into her at the hospital and asked why she was there. As we head towards Xmas and the New Year, we need something to keep us in suspense, and this could be it.

Brotherly love

In Friday's episode, Jacob (Jibre Hordges) issues a warning to his brother. As Izaiah (David Lami Friebe) is so new to us, we haven’t learnt all there is to know about this young man and the history he has with his brother and their father. If anyone can get through to Izaiah, it just might be Jacob.

A magical night

Winterfest is here, and everyone who is someone will be there in attendance, including Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant), Ted (Keith D. Robinson), and Eva (Ambyr Michelle). In Friday's episode, Leslie does everything in her power to give her daughter a magical night with her dad. We are definitely seeing more of a softer and more human side of leslie these days, does that mean we are going to see her answer for her crimes soon and be whishjed away?

Tomas and the Kat

Tomas (Alex Alegria) took Kat (Colby Muhammed) away from Thanksgiving to a nice B&B on the Chesapeake Bay so they could have some alone time together. Tomas is trying to show Bill (Timon Kyle Durett) that he's family-oriented and in a stable relationship so he can stay on the partner track at the firm. But nothing is ever as simple as it sounds. In Friday's episode, after an awkward run-in with Ted, Tomas has a major question to ask Kat.
