After seven seasons, the Bordelon family’s journey came to an end. “Queen Sugar” signed off on Tuesday night with a poetic series finale centered around the importance of family —…
Ernest certainly loomed large over the episode, appearing in a series of flashbacks to share wisdom from beyond the grave, as his kids worked through the trials and tribulations of their relationships and lives. It’s the Bordelons’ surrogate uncle, Prosper Denton , who conjures him up, first, while encouraging Ralph Angel to fight for his marriage to Darla after they hit a rough patch over his decision to tell Blue a portion of the truth about his biological father.
Later, when Nova questioned why so many people from her past had come back into her life recently, Prosper offered another memory from his wife’s funeral when Ernest came to console him. That day, the two men reflected on their lost loves and their fears for their daughters, Nova and Billie .own “I’ve been so disconnected from the way I used to be,” Nova admits. “I don’t think it’s left you,” Calvin responds. “It’s a deep part of who you are. You’ll find it.” And by the episode’s end, Nova does.
“You lost Sam. That’s right, it’s over now. But by the looks of this big old fancy house, you’ll be fine. You see, you and your kind, you’ve been stealing from my people for generations. It’s a hell of a head start, don’t you think? But we’ve got something that you’ll never have — cuz we’ve got love. We’ve got each other. We’ve got our land back.”
