Is it morally wrong for one to be in such denial?

The first episode of season 4 was on January 11, 2011. In this comeback episode there was a lot going on, it was two years later. Melanie and Derwin were still together but now live in a mansion instead of their condo. Derwin became famous and is now the franchise player for the Sabers. He also became the face of Nike and their “Boom” campaign. Melanie on the other hand became the new head of the sunbeams since Kelly and Jason got divorced and Janay had a baby boy and named him Derwin Jr. (DJ).

Jason and Kelly are both single since being divorced in the last season. She has her own reality TV show called “Ex-Ballers Wives” demonstrating how hard it was being married to him.  He is filling in as a guest correspondent on a sports network called “Benched”, while he protests against his team to give him better recognition for his 12 years there. Since Jason is doing his protest he hasn’t been to practice (“training camp”). Kelly has also lost her mind and became a shopaholic because all she wants to do is spend as much of Jason’s money as possible.

Tasha is now dating some one else. She is dating a younger guy named Dante, who is a local performer. She is also Derwin’s manager and has other clients that she represents as well. Malik is no longer the Sabre’s #1 player and is having an affair with the wife of the new owner of the Sabre’s. Tee Tee now has his own mobile chicken restaurant and is doing well. He is now dating his former intern, Allison.

In this episode, Melanie is left to give DJ a bath and put him to bed and while in the process of doing this, she gives him a DNA test. The test comes out negative and she has to deal with telling Derwin what she did, but then later on she finds out that it was a mistake and the baby is really his. Derwin also asked Janay if he was the baby’s father and she was stumped that he actually asked her.

While Malik was making out with his boss’s wife at a nightclub, they created some damages and Tee Tee had to come bail him out of trouble again. On another occasion, Malik got drunk and Allison had to drive him home. He ended up sleeping with her. The next morning Tee Tee goes to visit Malik and finds his girl in the hot tub with him. This is where things all went downhill.

I thought this was a lot for one episode. The storyline was everywhere. You basically had to follow every character and their own story. I also don’t like the way Malik is now acting, he became even more self-fish. I hope they have flash back episodes which can explain some of the gaps that we are seeing, like what happened between Tasha and Rick or even Malik’s new ‘I don’t care’ attitude. Overall it was a great first episode. Looking forward to seeing what happens next.
