A brief recap of The Chi season 7 episode 6
Chicago's South Side experienced one of the hottest days of the year in The Chi season 7 episode 6. Even worse, there's no power, so everyone is feeling the heat—except for the select few who have generators and AC, like Alicia and Tiff. And speaking of heat, Detective Toussaint is hot on the trail of Reg.
Her first stop was Trig, informing him that she knew Reg was alive. Her second stop was Bakari, whose DNA was found in the vomit near Rob's dead body. While she didn't think Bakari killed Rob, she believed he knew who did because he was there during the incident. Detective Toussaint suspected that Reg killed Rob and was ready to listen once Bakari decided he was ready to spill.
After he was approached by the detective, Bakari opened up to Alicia, telling her about the detective's suspicions about Reg's connection to Rob's death. It ended with Alicia committing to her plan to kill everyone who kills without conscience, as she said to Pastor Zeke at the end of The Chi season 7 episode 5.
She tried to kill Reg, and while she was able to shoot him in the arm, Reg was still alive. However, the unsuspecting food delivery man—who turned out to be Jamal—was caught in the crossfire, ending up lying in a pool of his own blood on the ground.
What to expect in The Chi season 7 episode 7?
In the previous episode, Khalil was buried after Nuck killed him in The Chi season 7 episode 5. With what happened to Jamal, the church could have another burial in The Chi season 7 episode 7. As teased in the synopsis, Alicia doesn't appear to be done with her ground rules for Tiff.
She had already warned her to end her close relationship with Nuck in the previous episode, and she's bound to become even more controlling. Here's what fans can expect to play out in the upcoming episode, per the synopsis:
"Jada is hit with bad news; Emmett surprises Kiesha with an idea to help ease their stress; Lynae makes some comforting connections as Alicia doubles down on her ground rules for who is allowed to be around Tiff."
