Season 1 finale recap
At the end of the season 1 finale of P-Valley, viewers saw Autumn returning with the cash, but a gunshot from the club distracted Montavius. Clifford then burst in, and another gunshot was heard.
At the same time, Keyshawn stopped the big fight with her gun. She pleaded with Diamond to stop beating Derrick while holding a gun up to his head and sobbing. Another three gunshots were heard throughout the club, making Diamond head to the private room. As soon as he reached the private room, he saw a large puddle of blood, which belonged to Montavius.
While Clifford and his grandmother headed out dressed in black, Mercedes struggled to get through to her mother. As she pleaded with her to help, the scene cut to the funeral, which was an auction for the Pynk. Autumn then showed up at the lot and started outbidding Andre. Eventually, Autumn bought the Pynk and put the Promised Land idea straight out the window. Andre then left town.
Mercedes was welcomed back to the Pynk as Hailey prepared to open the strip club again.
