'The Haves and the Have Nots' recap: 'Donald'

Last episode we were left off with Jim holding a press conference that will supposedly fix things with Wyatt. Celine turns on the television for Katheryn which shows the press conference. In his speech, Jim introduces a man, Donald, who he claims is the person that Wyatt actually hit, not Lizzy or Benny. He is careful with what he says and seems to have everyone believe that Wyatt is innocent.

He tells the press that he wants the DA to release Wyatt immediately since no charges will be pressed against him.

Meanwhile, Hanna is home watching the same press conference on TV. Veronica is also home watching.

Hanna turns off the TV to find Quincy, Candace's ex who was released from jail. Hanna tells him to get out but he refuses to leave without being told where Candace is. Hanna grabs a bat and calls the police. He gets up and grabs Hanna's robe collar then leaves.

At Jim's office, Maggie tells Jim that his press conference went in his favor. Landon confronts David about Jim gets a call from the DA, they tell him they want to discuss a deal concerning Wyatt. After he leaves, Maggie asks David if Wyatt really did hit that other man, but David dodges her questions. Maggie tells David that she knows he isn't living with Veronica anymore. There appears to be a romantic undertone in their conversation, but David excuses himself from the room before anything could progress.

Hanna is talking to the police about Quincy's break-in. Detective Byron shows up to make sure she was okay after hearing the police call on the radio. Hanna tells Byron that Benny is alive and they embrace. There seems to be more feelings involved between them. In previous episodes, we were informed that Byron was hired by Jim to watch Hanna, but is he playing her, or are there actually feelings there?

Jim picks up Wyatt from the police station, avoiding questions from a reporter.

Jeffery goes to Amanda and Candace's apartment and finds Amanda with a gun. After failing to get information about what's going on, he gets ready to leave but she holds the gun up to him then to herself. Jeffrey finally gets Amanda to put the gun away. They talk about Candace, realizing that they don't know where she is, and then they talk about Wyatt, but Amanda just laughs at the situation.

After mocking Jeffrey and accusing him of being in love with Wyatt, Amanda kicks him out.
Detective Byron is bringing Hanna to the hospital. Hanna asks Byron for help to find her 5-year-old grandchild that Candace seemingly abandoned. They then talk about Jim and Wyatt. Hanna tells Byron that she will speak to the DA about the situation, but Byron reminds her that it was Katheryn who moved Benny to a new hospital. Hanna believes it was to keep her quiet.

Jeffery goes to Jim's home and speaks with Katheryn. He tells her that Amanda bought a gun and that she should have her committed. He asks to see Wyatt but Katheryn tells him that it is not a good time. Jim and Wyatt get home and run into Jeffery, but Katheryn dismisses him.

Katheryn tells Jim that Amanda bought a gun. He tells her that he will talk to her tomorrow and they get into an argument about whether or not to have her committed. Jim explains that he will talk to Candace about Amanda.

Candace is still being held against her will. She is given a long speech about how she should be afraid of Jim, and that pretty soon she will die. For the first time, Candace appears shaken and truly terrified.

Hanna reaches Benny who is with Darlene, the nurse who Benny was kind to when they were in school. Tony shows up and tells Hanna that his lawyer is on his way to the hospital to take Benny off of life support. They get into an argument and Benny mumbles something about the two of them, but is still unconscious. Hanna tries to get him to speak again and calls for the nurse while Tony stands in shock.

Next week, the relationship between David and Maggie gets deeper when Maggie asks David if he's ever thought of having an affair. We also see Jim confront Candace and David asks Landon, a member of the governing staff, about what it's like being gay, probably to get insight on what Jeffrey is going through.
