What happened in Love After Lockup season 5 episode 55?

In the latest episode of Love After Lockup, Savannah attempted to reconcile with her boyfriend Bradly's sister Alissa after a heated argument. Savannah reflected on the situation, acknowledging that she would never ask Bradly to choose between his family and her. However, she felt that others might be trying to drive a wedge between them.

Alissa felt ambushed by Savannah and struggled to cope. Although Savannah apologized, Alissa accused her of being controlling and manipulative. A tense exchange followed, with Savannah acknowledging that Alissa knew how to push her buttons due to their history. To set boundaries, Savannah emphasized the need to prioritize her own well-being.

"Alissa and I have been tight for a long time, so unfortunately, she knows what to say to get under my skin. Us being in a physical altercation months ago, I'm not saying it was right," stated Savannah.

The conversation ultimately ended in stalemate, with Alissa walking away. Savannah confided in Bradly, expressing her frustration and insecurities. Bradly reassured her, dismissing Alissa's claims that he would break up with Savannah once he was released. He affirmed his commitment to their relationship, calming Savannah's fears.

Rob's whole family gathered around the prison exit on the day he was about to be released. He embraced his fiance, Tia, as soon as he came out of the gates on Love After Lockup. Rob expressed that he had been gone for a long time, so this moment felt unreal to him.

"I'm back, I made it. It's great to be back with the family," Rob said.

Rob and his sister paid tributes to their mother as he remembered losing her while he was in prison. He recalled the first time he went to prison and revealed that he knew he would be going back to prison after a year. In another segment of Love After Lockup, Jakeema received surprising news regarding Donny's conduct report.

She discovered through the conduct report on Love After Lockup, Donny's alleged plan to sell drugs to fellow inmates while incarcerated. The report listed various substances, including synthetic marijuana, Suboxone, and tobacco. Donny had used Jakeema's CashApp account to facilitate the transaction, implicating her name in the misconduct.

Jakeema was devastated by the news, feeling as though she had been stabbed in the heart. As a single mother of two, she had been fiercely protective of her family and had made it clear to Donny that any involvement in illegal activity was a deal-breaker. Despite her initial support for Donny during his incarceration, Jakeema was now forced to reevaluate their relationship.

Her name was tied to the drug charge, and she couldn't shake off the feeling that Donny's actions had put her and her children at risk. Jakeema had been secretive about Donny's incarceration and their relationship with her family, but this latest development had her questioning their relationship.
