On the latest episode of “Raising Kanan,” Kanan blames Raq for Unique’s attack on the business. Plus, Raq makes peace with her mother. Here is the recap for, “Allow Me To Re-Introduce Myself.”

Raq isn’t able to get through to Unique. 

Unique hops off Raq’s kitchen countertop with a gun drawn in her direction. She’s in shock. Raq didn’t think Unique would be the person she’d see when entering her home. He pushes her against the wall and accuses her of setting up his death to take over his territories to run with Kanan.

Raq tells Unique she’d never do that to him but Unique isn’t hearing any of this. He believes Raq sets up all the men she romances. When Raq says Ronnie betrayed Unique and acted on his own, Unique doesn’t believe her. The plan is to beat her at the game before killing her. He brags about killing her attorney and robbing her spots before leaving. 

Lou Lou meets with Imani at a restaurant to hash things out. He tells her he did sleep with Jess but it didn’t mean anything to them. They were just hurting over Famous’ death. 

Imani understands Lou is still a single man so he didn’t wrong her although it stings. He grabs her hand to console her.

Kanan and Raq clash.

Raq meets with Lou Lou, Kanan, Jukebox, and Marvin to talk about Unique’s return. Kanan blames her for all of his troubles. She reminds him that she is the only reason he is still alive. After he storms off, Marvin tells Raq that a belt is what Kanan needs. As for Juke, she suggests the adults start listening to Kanan because he’s “grown.”
