I’m paraphrasing, but he says “everything”. El Estomper asks him what he knows about Lucia and her family. Oso goes to El Estomper, his new partner, and tells him that he no longer has a connect. She does, and she sends him on his way with a dowry of sorts. Her family tells her to cut Oso out of the business because well, he isn’t family. This man is conspiring with El Estomper to get back at Lucia and her family. I thought he was a stand-up guy, but nuh-uh. I would give him a pass because he is young, but it turns out this type of stupidity isn’t an ageist. Franklin, don’t treat your homieloverfriend like she’s expendable. Melody, rightly, tells him to get the fvck out. He was hella shook thinking that the cops would find it. He hid it under her bed when Leon was writhing in pain from being stabbed. He comes out of her bedroom with a backpack full of cocaine. He is happy about this, but he doesn’t want to meet up with her for any lovin’. This makes him the bad guy.įranklin has been kind of trying to get at Melody (I think), and she finally gives him a peck on the lips in front of her school mates. And crack is his gateway to solidifying it. He is in love with power, and he will do anything to keep it. Franklin is not concerned about financial freedom. It is this scene that makes me hate Franklin. He threatens that he has the power to imprison the guy or keep him on the streets. Franklin decides to confront the man who stabbed him.įranklin says that his neighbor, who is a cop, asked him who stabbed Leon because he wants to get the situation taken care of. Blood was gushing out of his body for the hell of it, I guess, and now, he’s propped up on a couch recovering from his injury. It’s no “NO, don’t shoot Ricky!” type of feels, but it’s something. Congratulations, John Singleton! I am actually caring about what happens to the characters. He says he did not realize the extent of damage selling cocaine would do, and now, he is also not okay with being anyone's "slave." So, in the end, Franklin asks Reed if he would join hands with him.SNOWFALL is finally giving me a few feels. He offers to officially become a CIA asset who can help the government curb gang wars. He tells Reed he is now ready to fight, fight for people whose lives are affected because of the gang wars, and the lives that he helped ruin in the first place with rock. It is the reason he seeks out Reed Thompson (Carter Hudson) and directly asks him for the federal government's cooperation. This time, he isn't influenced by power, fortune or fame. At a time when gang wars are rampant in the neighborhood and his mother Cissy (Michael Hyatt) is hell-bent on taking him away from the business to keep him safe, Franklin realizes it would all be for nothing if he left now.ĭespite having earned enough money to abandon the neighborhood and built a comfortable life elsewhere, Franklin is not satisfied. The Franklin who was shot by Melody survives and he decides to stay and fight for his people. After a brief recap, we see Franklin seated in a physics lecture where the professor is giving them a talk about the multiverse theory and this is the first clue that indicates what we are seeing is one of the possible paths Franklin could have taken. Instead, the writers drew parallels to the life of the Frankin that we know versus a Franklin Saint who had taken the more acceptable route for a black man desperate to survive and come up in the world. A still of Franklin Saint in 'Snowfall' season 3, episode 10. Sure, the FX show was renewed for a fourth season which meant there was a fair chance Franklin would return, but what would be his attitude towards the business? Is he still fine with ruining the lives of so many people, his people? The finale, however, did not answer any of these questions directly. Was he taken to the hospital, did he suffer major damages and what about the business?Īll of it hinged on Franklin's safety. The first question the finale needed to answer was if Franklin survived. He was left to bleed on the floor and his fate was not revealed in the last episode.
