SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from Monday’s episode of All American: Homecoming. As All American: Homecoming approaches the midway point of its final season, the writers are not taking their foot off the brake.
Monday’s episode saw Simone [Geffri Maya] continue to cope with her cancer diagnosis as all her friends try to support her through it, even when they disagree with some of her decisions.
Nate [Rhoyle Ivy King] has an especially hard time not voicing her thoughts about how Simone is handling her treatment plan and finds advice in a bit of an unlikely place after reconnecting with her cousin Val.
Nate had cut off communication with Val after she shared a hurtful social media post when Nate was young. Nate takes the opportunity to explain why Val’s action hurt her so much and hear Val’s side of the story, which brings them closer together once Nate realizes that Val has significantly changed her perspective since then.
