Get Millie Black: Season 1, Episode 2 - Hibiscus (2024)

The episode opens with Hibiscus narrating her perspective, rejecting the notion that she is lost and needs saving. She explains that she needs her older sister Millie instead. Hibiscus has just witnessed one of her sisters from the Gully being beaten to death. After this traumatic event, with nowhere else to go, Hibiscus makes her way to Mama's house, which serves as a dead house.

Millie is working at Meadow Mews when she hears a knock at the gate. She retrieves her gun and looks out to see Hibiscus standing there. Millie brings her inside and begins dressing Hibiscus' wounds. While doing so, Millie tells Hibiscus that Curtis is in critical condition. Hibiscus informs Millie that Deltreece was beaten to death. Millie urges her sister to file a police report, but Hibiscus assures her that the police will not pursue the perpetrators in the Gully.

Hibiscus recalls the abuse she suffered from their mother. She remembers refusing to give Mama her pills when she was dying, and how Mama would beat her with a belt that hung on the wall. Hibiscus had never returned to the house until this night. The next morning, Millie recalls a memory of finding an intoxicated Orville in a sex house. Hibiscus refuses to stay at the house alone, but Millie tells her that Mama is gone and it is their house now. Hibiscus reluctantly agrees to stay.

At Meadow Mews, Millie calls Daniel, who is at work. She emphasizes that no one can find out about his relationship with Curtis. Hibiscus discovers a document revealing that someone has made an offer for Mama's house. She becomes haunted by memories of the abuse she suffered there. Millie receives a call from Richie about an upset Hibiscus being at the pub.

The investigation into Janet Fenton and Freddie Somerville takes a significant turn. It becomes clear that the two have abducted a young boy named Romeo Lawrence under the pretense of selecting him for an exclusive school. Janet Fenton is revealed to be complicit in the crime rather than a victim. Evidence suggests they may be operating a child-trafficking ring. Millie speaks with Romeo's parents about his scholarship. Shirley Lawrence sends Millie a video of Janet fixing Romeo's tie, providing crucial evidence of Janet's involvement.

Millie calls Meera Thakur and asks her to do some digging on Luke Holborn. Meera is initially hesitant to help until she learns that Luke knows about Victor Adebanjo's death. Luke accuses Millie of being responsible for Victor's death. The tension escalates when Millie and Luke Holborn, the Scotland Yard detective, discover a massacre at the Somerville estate. The gruesome scene contains multiple victims including members of the Somerville family. This discovery intensifies the pressure on Millie to resolve the case, especially with Holborn pressing her. Holborn wants to find Freddie Somerville, but for different reasons than Millie. Holborn wants to locate him to help with his own case, while Millie wants to find him because she recognizes he is clearly involved in criminal activity.

Back at the house, tension escalates between Millie and Hibiscus. Millie begins breaking things and saying everything is evil. The two begin fighting over their mother's ring. Hibiscus pushes Millie and knocks her to the ground. Millie says she just wanted to make things right for them. Hibiscus insists that Millie cannot fix what is broken. She questions why Millie cannot see that there is a new family waiting for her.

Holborn attempts to reach Millie by visiting Hibiscus in the Gully and threatening her life. Millie arrives at the location, and Holborn executes an unsuspecting Janet. Millie and Holborn struggle with each other in a physical confrontation. As Holborn is about to kill Millie, Hibiscus arrives and knifes Holborn in the back. Holborn falls to the ground.

Following these events, Millie decides to impersonate another Jamaican woman who is unaware that she is being trafficked as a victim. Using this false identity, Millie boards a flight to London to attempt to find Romeo and continue her investigation into the trafficking operation.

Millie rescues Romeo from the traffickers in London, breaking the case open as the true mastermind Natalie escapes, then returns to Jamaica, quits the JPF, and tells Hibiscus she sold their house to stay home for good.

Millie, deep undercover in London, tracks down Romeo to a hidden location amid the city's gritty underbelly, slipping past guards and navigating tense confrontations with low-level traffickers who eye her suspiciously as she poses as another victim. She grabs Romeo, a scared young boy clutching a small bag, and they flee through shadowed alleys, dodging pursuit until she secures him in a safe house arranged through her old partner Meera, who risks her career to help. Earlier in this London phase, Holborn, still recovering from the backstabbing wound inflicted by Hibiscus in the Gully, joins forces with Millie reluctantly; they share a charged moment piecing together clues about Lindo's true identity, but their partnership shatters when Natalie--revealed as Lindo herself, played by Umi Meyers--ambushes them in a dimly lit warehouse. Natalie shoots Holborn point-blank in the chest during the struggle, his body slumping heavily to the concrete floor as blood pools around him, eyes glazing over in final shock; he dies there, his betrayal and redemption cut short, leaving Millie to fight off Natalie alone before the woman slips away into the night, vanishing without a trace as sirens wail in the distance.

With Romeo safe and the trafficking ring exposed through evidence Millie hands to authorities, she boards a flight back to Jamaica, her face etched with exhaustion and quiet relief mixed with unresolved grief. Upon landing, she strides into JPF headquarters, badge in hand, and tenders her resignation amid stern-faced superiors who drum her out for her rogue actions and the mess left behind, their voices sharp with accusations of insubordination. Millie walks out into the humid Kingston air, unmoored but resolute.

She drives straight to the Gully, pulling up outside Hibiscus's modest home where the air hangs heavy with tension from prior threats. Hibiscus stands in the doorway, her posture guarded yet softening at Millie's approach, the weight of their shared trauma--Hibiscus's knifing of Holborn to save Millie, Janet's execution by Holborn before that--still raw between them. Millie steps forward, voice steady but laced with emotion, and tells Hibiscus she has sold their house, everything inside it cleared out, the ghosts of bad memories bulldozed away in a futile bid for closure. She declares she's staying in Jamaica for good, no more running to London or chasing cases at the expense of home. Hibiscus nods slowly, a flicker of hope crossing her face as they embrace lightly, the moment underscoring Millie's choice to prioritize their bond over her career.

Romeo begins a normal life back in Jamaica, spotted by Millie from afar playing carefree in a yard, his rescue her one clear victory. Holborn lies dead in London, his complex arc of corruption, survival, and fleeting alliance ended by Natalie's bullet. Natalie remains at large, her escape leaving the trafficking threat lingering. Curtis, Millie's put-upon partner, survives the ordeal, his narration framing these events as he deals with the fallout back home. Hibiscus endures, her life in the Gully intact and now anchored by Millie's return. Millie herself, drummed out of the JPF and rootless without the house, commits to Jamaica, watching Romeo's new beginning from a distance that mirrors her own tentative healing.
