A brief recap of The Chi season 7 episode 10

In The Chi season 7 episode 10, Detective Toussaint confirmed Alicia's suspicions that Rob's killer is still alive—it wasn't Zay who killed Rob. She also told Alicia about Bakari's DNA found on the scene of Rob's murder, and that her theory is that Bakari knows the real killer. In retaliation, Alicia withdrew Bakari's scholarship and threatened to kill him if he didn't tell her what he knew.

Emmett also spent episode 10 ruminating about Jada's impending death and marrying Kiesha. Meanwhile, Pastor Zeke and Carolyn are starting to consider getting back together, and Shaad has found a new love interest during the fair.

Detective Toussaint's plot to arrest Reg, however, ends in a bust after Nuck, it turns out, received a bad tip from Hannibal about where the robbery would happen. However, Hannibal swears it's the store that Reg said he was going to rob with Jackie, which implies that Reg deliberately told him the wrong place.

Major events to expect from The Chi season 7 episode 11

As the penultimate episode, The Chi season 7 episode 11 will set up this season's grand finale. A couple more twists and turns are expected in the upcoming episode, especially after the cliffhangers and turn of events in the previous one. Here's what to expect in the series next week:

• Detective Toussaint's hunt for Reg will continue. But, after last week's failed operation to arrest him despite the tip from Hannibal and Nuck, episode 11 will tackle what went down and why Reg wasn't where he said he would rob.
• Shaad found a new love interest, and the last episode ended with them planning their first date. That date will happen in episode 11.
• Alicia already threatened Bakari with death, and it will be up to him to decide on the next step. He will either lie and risk Alicia's wrath or snitch on Nuck, the real person who killed Rob. Either option requires deep, critical thinking from him.
