‘Sistas’ Season 8 Premiere: Secrets, Scare Tactics, and Shocking Twists
With fake deaths, complicated love triangles, and unresolved grudges, the new season promises plenty of drama.
Season eight of Tyler Perry’s Sistas kicks off with a bang—and a twist. Andi finds herself under interrogation by a cop, who drops a bombshell: Gary is dead… or so it seems. The detective grills her, trying to unravel how she went from wanting to take Gary down to nearly marrying him. As always, Andi is frustratingly evasive, refusing to be fully transparent about Gary’s threats against her and Jordan.
Adding to the mystery, the FBI agent she was working with is noticeably absent, leaving Andi on her own. The detective shifts his focus, questioning Gary’s closest ally, Hudson, who wastes no time trying to pin the blame on Andi. One by one, Karen, Sabrina, Danni, Fatima, and Jordan are also interrogated, but it’s clear the authorities believe Andi holds the key to unlocking the truth—they keep her in the hot seat longer than anyone else.
Meanwhile, Hayden is conspicuously missing from the interrogation lineup. Instead, we see him packing a suitcase while watching the news report on Gary’s supposed death. His sudden plans to flee the country feel more than a little suspicious. But just as Hayden thinks he’s about to make a clean getaway, Tamara shows up with her seductive charm in full effect—ready to distract or manipulate him.
On a lighter note, things are looking up for Sabrina and Rich, who are back together and seemingly in a good place. But then, the episode throws a curveball: Gary isn’t actually dead.
It turns out the authorities faked Gary’s death as a scare tactic, hoping to force a confession out of someone. Gary is in critical condition, meaning we’re not rid of him just yet. The episode wraps with Andi still in the interrogation room—until Robin shows up and tells her not to say another word.
Remember Robin from season six? He despises Gary and has been smitten with Andi for a while now. Fan theories speculate that Robin might have launched the investigation into Gary, though it hasn’t been confirmed. The intrigue builds as we wait to see where things head next. One thing’s for sure: Sistas is bringing the drama this season.
