Was Marie’s ‘Master Class’ Worth It?
Alright, Sisters fans, let’s get into the burning question: Was Marie’s so-called “master class” really worth it? Honestly, I can’t even call it a true Sister Circle—it felt more like Marie’s personal lecture. As I mentioned in my episode review and my livestream title, this entire gathering could have been summed up in an email.
That being said, was it completely pointless? Not exactly. It had its moments, but it could have been so much more. I’ve said this on multiple platforms: this should have been the “summoning” episode where all the girls received a text or call to come over. Karen, who was supposed to join via speaker, opted out because she refused to be sidelined. The way it played out, the cliffhanger should have been everyone arriving, leading into a more substantial discussion in the next episode. Given Marie’s experience, this so-called master class should have lasted at least 10 to 12 minutes. Instead, it felt rushed and underwhelming.
As I mentioned in my review, every scene that seemed to be building momentum—Zac and Fatima dealing with their 24-hour deadline from Agent Watt, Sabrina facing issues with Rich and Deanii both walking out, the whole sperm situation—was abruptly halted because “Andy needs us.” And for what, exactly? To be honest, Marie was just telling Andy what we’ve all been saying for the longest time: she wasn’t just a passive victim in the Gary situation. Her choices have negatively impacted both her career and personal life.
Marie’s words weren’t new—Andy’s own friends had been saying the same things for years. The only difference? Marie is an outsider, making her perspective seem more valid. But let’s be real: if I were Andy, I’d be asking, “Who is this woman, and why is she telling me how to live my life?” The fact that Andy aired out her personal business to Marie in the first place was questionable. At the end of the day, Marie was simply echoing what the sisters had already told each other countless times.
Here’s the kicker: when one of the sisters gives advice, it’s usually dismissed. Instead of taking it to heart, the response is often defensive—throwing past mistakes in each other’s faces. Take Danny, for example. If Sabrina tells her to be careful in her situations, Danny might lash out, bringing up Sabrina’s past with “panty man”—completely unrelated but used as a deflection. Same with Karen—every time someone tells her it’s time to let Zac go, she finds a way to justify her actions. And Andy? She’s in no position to judge anyone when she keeps running back to Gary.
The perfect example of this cycle was in the Season 5 finale. The girls staged an intervention for Danny, not to attack her but because they genuinely cared. Andy even said, “If you want to have your hot girl summer, go for it, but just be careful.” And yet, Danny responded by lashing out at everyone.
That’s why this “master class” had potential but ultimately fell short. It had some strong moments—Marie acknowledging Danny’s progress with therapy was a highlight. I also liked her line about “man’s rejection being God’s protection,” especially regarding Rich not being a viable option for Sabrina. Plus, making Andy acknowledge her accountability was a win.
However, when it came to Fatima and Karen, there wasn’t much substance. Many viewers felt like Karen once again got a pass on her situation with Zac and Aaron instead of being held accountable. But as usual, social media will handle that discussion.
So, was the Sister Circle good? Yes. Could it have been great? Absolutely. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, and I’ll catch you in the next video!
