The Game: Malik Fires Tasha!
Welcome to The Game – or, this week, the Tasha and Malik show, with a side of Kelly and Jason and fleeting appearances by those other two people – what were their names? Der-something? Mela-what?
Yeah, we missed Mel and Derwin, but we can’t really complain—they packed a whole lot of plot into a half-hour show, as always. We were cringing watching Tasha do damage control, that spun out into more damage. Oh, Tasha – it’s never good to compare your son and client to Jesus Christ. That’s never going to play well.
Still, we were shocked to see Irv try to swoop in and poach Malik – and even more shocked when Malik fired his mom! We think it did have to happen – Malik needs to grow up, separate himself from his mom – but that doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt to watch. That’s why we were thrilled to see Tasha doing well at the end – a new job, a hefty paycheck, benefits, and Irv put in his place. Don’t mess with Tasha Mack!
Don’t mess with Kelly, either – although again, we were shocked by her actions. Not only did she bail Jason out (and what choice did she have?), she let him continue taking steroids. We get that Jason wants a championship, but dude – you have to know this is a bad idea. And Kelly? Why are you letting him get away with it?
What did you think? Did you miss Mel and Derwin? Were you a bit surprised to see Derwin’s dance break as his sole contribution to the episode? Do you think Malik did the right thing in leaving his mom’s management? And what’s going to happen to Kelly and Jason? Vote in our polls and leave your thoughts in the comments!
