Sonny's downward spiral of substance abuse continues, with his failing to board Tran's fishing boat and later humbly asking his forgiveness; he later fails to show for a music gig. Albert ignores his doctor's advice and refuses to start chemotherapy until after the Mardi Gras, frustrating his daughter's good intentions to help him. Davis continues pushing for his R&B opera, seeking the support of new Orleans legends such as Fats Domino. Janette is discovering more of the implications of working for a corporate restaurant chain and doesn't care for her new roles of manager and spokesperson, taking her away from her first love of cooking. Antoine is horrified to discover that Jennifer, his 14-year-old trumpet protégée, is illiterate but even more horrified that the charter school enthusiasts are more interested in a smoothly operating school than the individual students. Toni and Everett track down an out-of-town pathologist who worked on the Henry Glover case and provides more ammunition for their case that Glover was shot and burned post-mortem, providing further evidence implicating the local authorities in a cover-up. Sofia's romance with the 27-year-old street musician sours, with her surprisingly calling him "immature".
