Tyler Perry’s Sistas | Sneak Peek: Hayden Hands Karen & Pam’s Roots To Riches Case To Fatima

As we approach the latest episode of Sistas, we’re getting another sneak peek, courtesy of BET. It’s clear they’re pushing hard to revive fan interest and boost ratings this season. Last week’s episode saw a major dip, likely due to the election aftermath, but this week should set the tone for the rest of Season 8.

Ratings Watch: Can the Show Bounce Back? Episode 4 had some of the lowest ratings to date, hitting around 0.2. Now, Episode 5 might pull fans back, especially with Gary’s intense scene at the end of Episode 4 leaving viewers wondering about his fate. If ratings slide further to around 0.6, the season may be at risk.

The “Roots to Riches” Case: Will Hayden Drop the Ball? In this preview, Marie consults Hayden about “Roots to Riches.” It seems she wants Hayden’s help with a lawsuit involving the haircare line she’s backing. Marie may have learned about this from Pam or Mauie, who might have updated her on a pending lawsuit filed by Vanessa. Marie sees the opportunity and directs Hayden to represent the brand in the case.

However, Hayden doesn’t take it seriously and could end up delegating it to Fatima. If that happens and Fatima wins the case, “Roots to Riches” could see a big success, and Fatima will gain a lot of praise, while Hayden’s dismissive approach may hurt his standing.

Marie’s Influence on Hayden’s Job In a surprise twist, Marie hints that if it weren’t for her, Robin would have fired Hayden. Despite Hayden’s cocky attitude and recent behavior with Fatima, Marie sees his skills as useful—though Robin apparently has reservations about keeping him around. Hayden might underestimate Marie’s reach and the potential fallout from neglecting her case.

Consequences for Hayden Hayden’s reluctance to take the “Roots to Riches” case seriously might come back to haunt him. If Fatima succeeds, she’ll shine in the eyes of Marie, while Hayden risks looking unprofessional. With Marie as one of the firm’s top clients, this could be a costly misstep.
