The Game: Season 4 Episode 13 (Finale) - The Right to Choose

The final show of season 4 has definitely left us all hanging.  Honestly, it was a terrible episode because it left even more unanswered questions than before.  The storyline was completely disorganized and made absolutely no sense.

In this episode:


Tasha Mack has been moving forward since the supposed death of her quick fling, Beau.  To her surprise, she runs into him on the street believing it was a miracle that he was alive.  She gets excited and wraps her arms around him, but he seems a bit hesitant.  Then, two children run up to him calling him daddy.  Tasha is confused and asks him if he has children because he never told her that.  Beau tries to play it off, but then his wife calls to him, "RONNIE!"  Tasha realizes Beau had been lying to her and faked a terminal illness to get with her, when all the while he had a wife and kids.  Instead of acting "ghetto" like the Tasha Mack we all have come to know her as, she gracefully removes herself from the situation.

Malik still has not heard from his ex girlfriend Jenna.  In a desperate attempt to see and talk to her, Malik sets up a fake photo shoot.  He shows up to the "shoot" to talk to her and reveals that it was a set-up.  Jenna finds this to be a low blow because she is trying to salvage whatever is left of her modeling career, which was successful prior to her entering rehab.  She gets upset and walks out.  Later that day, Jenna shows up to Malik's house drunk with a change of heart, wanting to be with him.

Now that the affair Malik and Parker had with each other is out in the open and the coach plans to ruin Malik's career, Malik wants his mother, Tasha Mack, to represent him as his manager again.  Tasha agrees and takes her son back under her wing.  In the meantime, Derwin is not feeling this decision.  He believes that Tasha representing Malik is a conflict of interest and could be damaging to his image and his career.  Of course he doesn't want to tell Tasha to her face, so he boosts Melanie up to do his dirty work.  He tells Melanie he is doing this to "protect the legacy."  Before Melanie could say anything about it, Tasha comes to her and asks what she thinks about her plan to improve Malik's image and revive his career.  When Melanie explains to her how Derwin feels about it, of course it gets out of hand and turns into a heated argument between the two friends.  It ends with Tasha walking out.

Derwin has a new plan for the team.  He wants to meet with Quan Kirkland and get him to sign with Sabers and to be Malik's replacement.  He asks Jason to come along and help him out, but Jason objects.  When Quan shows up to the meeting and sees Jason there, he flatters Jason by telling him how he is his favorite player and has idolized him since he was a kid.  This quickly changes Jason's mind about leaving the meeting.  Ultimately, Quan signs with the Sabers.  When they were announcing Quan's decision, Camille shows up. Her and Jason agree to meet later for dinner.  After she walks away, Camille goes over to Quan and kisses him.  Camille looks over at Jason and tells him WE (her and Quan) will see you tonight.

Derwin decides to take Melanie to a fertility clinic to find out why it is that she can't seem to get pregnant.  As a part of a routine, the doctor asks a set of questions and expects honest answers.  One of the questions he asks Melanie is if she's ever had an abortion.  Her response... "Definantly not."  Once the doctor wraps up and walks out of the room, Derwin asks Melanie, "The abortion...was it mine?"

Stay tuned for season 5 of The Game as the drama heats up.

Until next time....
