What are you doing?

What are you up to?

I'm not up to anything.

I think why the audience is connected so well with the Have and Have Nots is

there's nothing like it on television.

For eight straight years, it's been the wildest ride on television.

And they're so real. They're so raw. And it's just a lot of crazy -ass drama,

too, that people just love to see. Put the knife down.

This? Yes!

What are you going to do? Diehard fans of Tyler Perry's The Haves and The Have

Nots will tell you. I love watching it every week. This show delivers, then

doubles down on drama.

Tonight,

the all -time most mind -blowing, jaw -dropping, sexy,

shocking, explosive, unbelievable moments decided by

you, the faithful viewers.

Hooked from the very beginning.

That's how I be feeling, honey.

Wow, you know, this is really good.

I want you to beat him until he realizes he messed with the wrong bitch.

I'm not a bitch.

I'm talking about me.

I'm telling you, Tyler Perry fans, that audience, man, they are diehard, and I

love them. I've got to let Hannah keep all the money, and you won't have a

Everything you could want in a soap opera, I see it, Dorit. No, no.

I'm just saying, Benny, money is the root of all evil. We just have to see

deep our roots go.

In my storytelling, that's what I try to do, raise thought, thought -provoking

issues and make people think.

Didn't you tell me my father raped you?

Yes.

I don't understand.

He's the man who did it.

Characters show up for me more than scenes.

Really?

They dictate the scene. They say which way they want to go.

I'm not nuts, but it's almost like I can hear these people talking. Like I'm

sitting in a room with ten people around a dinner table, and I'm just writing

what they're saying. They're having the conversation. That's the way I write.

Well, you have made my night even better with all this good news. What I know

about good TV is if you can sympathize with a character or if you like them,

you'll stay around to see them. Catherine, you don't get this, do you?

We are going to jail.

Okay. You've been there before?

I love just about every single character, villains and prey, all of

But I think it's just a juicy twist and turn, and I think there's a lot of

interest to see how this is all going to play out. I don't really feel good

about this. That kind of story will keep you interested.

Come with me.

I'll make you feel good.

It is the best show I have ever seen.

Tyler Perry, you outdid yourself. Let me just say that.

This message is for Tyler Perry.

Thank you for writing The Have and the Have Not.

You have kept me captivated and entertained.

I'm watching The Have and the Have Not since day one.

I was hooked within the first ten minutes.

They crazy, but I love them. It was amazing.

I have been watching The Have and the Have Not since the very beginning.

Season one, episode one. I got you.

Winnie Champagne. The show is amazing. It's fabulous.

And I'm really grateful that we have been able to be entertained for this

years. I love the Have and Have Nots because it is the greatest ensemble of

actresses and actors I have ever seen in my entire life.

I've been a huge Have and Have Nots fan.

I've been watching the Have and Have Nots since May 28, 2013.

That was the very first episode to air on home.

I love the show because it always has some juicy stuff that goes on. That over

there? That's the one that takes bark like a dog orders from you. I don't.

this is the bitch that's acting like a dog. Get out!

At least I know how to control my litter. I love it because the crazy

storylines, the crazy plotlines, the twists, the turns.

It reminds me of the old soap opera days.

Oh. My.

God.

I am truly amazed with what Tyler Perry does when he sits down and he writes.

I normally watch the show by myself, but I have my daughter who comes in the

living room while I'm watching, and she'll see me talking to the TV, and

be like, Mom, this show must be good. And who are you talking to? And I'll be

like, Girl, I'm talking to my show.

And yeah, it's good.

Well, well, well, well, well. I am so happy I got to watch the show. That was

much fun.

I've never loved this show so much in my life. After that first episode, we were

hooked, and it was just an event every single Tuesday night. When I first

started watching the show, I watched it with my mom, my grandma, and my aunt,

but now I watch it with my fiance.

I love the show because it actually tells about how the poor is getting poor

the rich is getting richer.

When will the funds be available?

Just as soon as this is processed, do you have an account you'd like us to

this to?

I need it in cash.

Miss Young, you need $2 million in cash.

Yeah. We kind of evolved into having a half

-watch party and a half -night. So in January, we usually have a half -night

watch party where we have paper plates and plastic cups.

plasticware and, you know, food rolled in foil, things of that nature.

And then for our May season from here, we've had wine tasting. We've had a chef

come and cook for us. We ordered T -shirts.

Just anything just to elevate the party into more of a half party for us anyway.

Are we so excited to watch the final season?

But at the same time, I'm sad because the heaven has not ended soon.

But I'm ready.

I'm really trying to turn over a new leaf here, and I don't want to snap back

into the old Candace, none of them.

Where is he?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Okay.

Candace is my absolute favorite.

My favorite character would have to be Candace. I mean, Candace is a great

actor, and she brings life to all the shows.

My favorite scene to work on probably was from season one, where you were

introduced to this girl who, even though she was messy and complex and sometimes

crazy and manipulative.

I thought I was coming to see some old man.

You guys embraced it. So my favorite scene was disrobing for John Schneider.

You know, some people think she's evil, but I just think her childhood was

complex. It's complicated.

It's not so cut and dry. And I love playing somebody who has different

you know, and I think that's why people actually like her, because she's not

perfect.

Candace, what do I have to do to end this nightmare?

Die. Really?

It's been a rollercoaster of a ride to work on the haves and the have -nots.

They can mess up your face so badly that your own mother won't recognize you.

Are you this person?

You have no idea.

Nothing stops me when something gets in my way. Now, do we need to do this?

Candace, I just love to watch her. She wasn't necessarily, like, the most

ethically great character.

Where is my money?

However, she was always so entertaining, so beautiful, such a great actress.

Can I stay here tonight?

Yes.

Of course. To work with Crystal Fox, who plays my mom, there are times where I

wasn't even meant to cry, but we connect so well.

Then you know I would do anything for you.

Candace is kind of like our baby.

Yeah, she does things, but she's like, you can see the hurt and the pain. So

it's like you can get mad at her, but you really can't be mad at her.

I loved everything about it. I loved being crazy. I loved being vulnerable.

I love being kind of open in my heart to this whole process and grateful for it.

You must not understand.

You're not in control here.

Candace. Working with Tyler Perry has been fantastic.

He knows what he wants to do and he does it. And he also gives us room to be who

we are and he wants everyone to grow and be great. So it's been great to work

with him and to see how his brain works and to see this empire that he's built.

It's inspirational and something to admire.

Since we are giving our blessings.

How about you blessing me with Candace Bentley after the program has ended? I

would love to have that Bentley.

Coming up, the results are in for Best Tuesday Night Fight.

Plus, your vote for the sexiest character is... The sexiest one of

them all.

You sexy.

You come after my daughter?

What are you going to do about it?

The all -time best fight you have and have not goes to when Benny beats up Jim

Cryer. When Hannah puts the table out of the living room and says, Benjamin,

this mother is all yours.

When Benny finally got the chance to beat up Jim Cryer and Hannah let him.

When Benny... put a hurting on Jim for calling Candace and his mother out of

their name.

I think all the fans will agree with me on this one. When

Hannah and Candace teamed up, that mother and daughter duo teamed up and

put a whooping on Jim.

And I mean, it was funny and it was well deserved.

When Candace yelling at Hannah.

actually find Jim Cryer. I have to give it to the Hannah and Candace versus

Jim when Jim decided to get in front of Hannah's face.

Do you actually think that you scare me, Hannah?

What do you have to scare me with, bitch?

This holy sanctified woman took a deep breath. She took her earrings off. She

made that first slap.

Watch what you say to me.

And the next thing you know, Candace jumped on his back.

That was one of the first times where we really saw Candace and Hannah working

together for a common goal.

That was Jim getting a piece of his humble pie.

I love that because I see how they come together as mother and daughter.

and stick together and, hey, let Jim know that, hey, we are not to be messed

with. I was waiting on it. Somebody needed to get Jim, and I was so glad.

I want to see that again, but I want to see it in 3 -D.

Looking back on all my experience so far on the haves and have -nots, I'd have

to say that my favorite scene was when I grabbed Veronica and tried to kill her,

because some people need killing.

She's one of them.

He was great to see him play a deviant villain. He is diabolically deviant. You

are not ready for what's coming up next.

And neither was I.

I need to talk to you.

No, I can't speak to you. Well, you're going to. My favorite character is

Catherine. Catherine Cryer. She can be philanthropic.

She's sweet. She's nice. She is loyal.

But if you cross her, that's not a place you would want to be. Why in the hell

would you have pain medication in this house?

Because I'm married to a pain in the ass.

She's had so many quotable lines of dialogue.

This fragrance is called Out With The Old.

Where she could just say one little line, and that would just rip apart

who was confident that they had the upper hand on her.

But I gotta say, the most fun thing had to be shooting the DA.

Bitch.

And running around the house with a knife after Veronica. I mean, really,

Who gets to do that?

You need to die too.

Catherine, stop it. Catherine.

Catherine, stop it now.

Stop what?

Stop it. Just put the knife down.

This? Yes.

What are you going to do? Catherine, stop it. Catherine, don't make me stop.

Don't make me stop.

Where

are

you running? Oh, my God.

It is an honor and a privilege, and

bringing her to life is a joy every day.

Coming up, Temptation Tuesday's hottest love scene.

Talk about spicy.

And later, the single greatest moment in Hab's history.

Choosing the respective character is very hard to do since 95 % of the male

characters in the show are very hot. However, if I had to choose, I would say

Mitch Malone.

Do you remember Mitch?

Yes, I can't forget.

You're very handsome.

Thanks. Mitch. I just love me some Mitch.

Mitch is so fine.

He's so appealing and he's like a tall glass of nice 2 % milk. What?

This is a joke, right? This is a joke.

The sexiest character on the show for me is David Harrington. The sensible side

of me would say David. He's strong. He's educated.

He's smart.

Sexy bastard.

Nurse Madison, when he took his shirt off, Jeffrey was licking his lip.

You don't wear underwear.

Nope.

I'd have to give it to Antoinette, a .k .a. Melissa.

Thank you for saying that I'm sexy.

Mr. President -elect Charles, my lord.

I like that.

You should say that more often.

Candace. There's something about Candace. She just invites you in. I

her appearance, her look. So, what are you wearing?

I'm wearing this.

Wow.

The sexiest character of all has to be Benny. Benny?

Benny. I mean, he is a sexy man because it looks like he has trained hard to

play the role, and he looks great. I mean, Tyler Perry, great job.

Benny is the sexiest one of them all.

Just wait.

Okay, I'll wait.

Are you undressed?

Yeah. He's sexy.

Have you seen that man?

He's so fat.

I love his swag.

And, you know, he's nice looking, so it's a pleasure to watch when the show

on. The longer you sit there, the more horny I get. Come on.

Really?

Sir?

Does that feel good?

You need to let me go, sir.

When's the last time a man's touched you like this?

When was the last time a woman punched you in the nuts?

My character, you know, is just so wild that

every day, every scene is a new scene. So it's hard to pick one scene as being

my favorite, but I'd have to say the one where there's some action involved is

going to be it.

One of my most fun scenes was I got into a bar fight with one of the Malones.

Got to break a bottle over his head, and it just ended up from one side of the

bar to the other side of the bar. Then I had to go back to fighting. It just was

crazy.

It was fun.

It's still fun.

Is it okay if Madison stays the night?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes. We could just go to Madison. No, no, no.

You live here as well.

I'll be back later.

Jeffrey's story, I think he's probably my favorite because I can relate to him.

I am an openly gay black man, you know.

And I have a loving, supportive parent, but it's not always easy to come out to

a black family as a man. So his coming out scene was just,

oh my gosh.

Mom, Dad, I need to tell you something.

All right, now what is it? I'm gay.

Honey, you are not a homosexual.

You're not.

I love you anyway.

Your mother loves you anyway.

Speak for yourself.

My favorite scene to work on in Why is that crazy theme that

we saw with the gun battle.

I love action and being able to shoot off guns. And we had a lot of fight

choreography that was happening and bullets flying everywhere. It was really

exciting.

That'll

teach

you to try to kill me.

It has truly been a rollercoaster working on the show.

I appreciate every peak, every valley of it. And it's been a huge blessing. And

you, the fans, are just truly amazing. And that's what makes this show the best

show that's been out.

When Candace Young and the president -elect get together, Candace and

that is a match made in heaven.

They just had chemistry. Talk about spicy.

The most shocking Tyler Perry plot twist ever.

It was amazing.

It was like the best moment of my life.

I loved it.

Plus, the one theme fans just cannot stop talking about.

To a lying, cheating bastard.

Oh, my God.

I was here for a day.

Your name is $900 ,000 cash for a brand new little playhouse town.

Your wife is a cold -blooded bitch.

Remember, I'm a bad bitch.

If you show up and do this shit again, I'm going to blow your brains out.

Is that a fact?

Mm -hmm.

But unlike your son, I won't miss.

Now, please.

Delusional.

Temple bitch.

Veronica ain't stupid, Jim.

Veronica's the smartest person in this town.

One of the most memorable lines that I love of The Had and Had Not was when

Hannah asked Derek, did he love God and did he want to see him one day?

And Derek's response was...

And Hannah says, well, come back around here ever again, and I promise you,

I'm going to put you on that trip to see him sooner than you think.

I was like, okay, go ahead. I was like, yeah.

When Catherine was in Jennifer Dallison's office, and she looked

Jennifer into her face and said, let me see if I can make it more clear to you.

Bitch, I will have you murdered in the streets.

I lost it. I lost it.

It was amazing.

It was like the best moment of my life.

I loved it. You try to have a nice day.

Because it may be your last.

I'm seeing Catherine.

I'd say the most memorable line of the entire series.

Number nine, Catherine Cryer was the one who coined that phrase when Candace

revealed the affair between her and Jim back in season one was just an epic

moment in the series.

Your name is nine.

She so gracefully, you know, put one foot down than the other, put on his

slippers and just gave one of the best monologues in the entire series.

You are just as powerless as all the other chronologicals.

I don't really understand what you think you're going to accomplish, but it's

closing all of this information to me.

You think I didn't know about you?

Nine, I hold the purse strings in this hand and his balls in this one.

You are a non -factor.

My favorite character would have to be Miss Veronica.

I will miss Veronica's sociopathic personality.

You're wicked.

Yeah, I am. My favorite character is Veronica. I love, love, love, love,

love Veronica. Love her, everything about her.

She's awesome.

She is vindictive, deceitful, evil.

Where you at, bitch? Where you at, huh? She knows what she wants, and she goes

after what she wants.

And I also love her fashion sense, too. She's so fly.

She's fabulous.

Veronica, girl, you great.

Ice queen for sure, man.

If I were to describe Veronica, she's indescribable.

Actually, she's crazy.

And that's what I loved about her. She's the perfect balance between brilliant,

kind of deranged. Boy, do I love, love, love to hate Veronica.

I've had enough of this. And I've had enough of you. What you gonna do, little

girl? You gonna shoot me with your little gun?

Playing this character, bringing it to life, bringing her to life is the most

fun because there really are no rules.

So I love playing the villain.

Speak of the bitch devil herself.

I've been out with Peter, who plays David, and people will say, oh, my God,

so good to see you. I love you so much. And then they'll look at me and say, oh,

you crazy.

Ladies and gentlemen, my husband thinks I'm a simple bitch. And with that.

Hurricane Veronica touches down and destroys that hotel bar.

I may as well start acting like a simple bitch. Since you married a simple

bitch. Oh, my God.

I was here for a date. I wasn't a simple bitch when I took care of her.

And that's it.

She goes off. She smashes the whole place up.

Simple bitch. Simple bitch.

Simple bitch hair.

Anybody want to see a simple bitch? I admit, I like to play that on YouTube.

Again and again.

What do you think of that?

What do you think of your little simple bitch now?

My favorite character on the show is David Harrington.

He's been a voice of reason. It's almost as if David is as calm as Veronica

is fierce.

The most memorable line of the show is when David says, I'll handle it. I'll

handle this.

I'll handle it.

I'll handle it. Let me handle this.

I'll handle it.

I'm going to handle it.

I'll handle it. Peter Farrows, the way he does the David voice, you know, I'm a

good friend, but I'm a better enemy.

Jeffrey, watch out for your mother.

I like the arc that the character has gone through, and sometimes it's the

sensitive stuff, but sometimes it's, you know, the backhand scene.

It's a good one.

My all -time favorite.

david harrington moment when he backhanded veronica i am not condoning

violence all i'm saying is that was a scene that i remember that was one of

those scenes that had me i had to get out my you

actually

Be glad that's all I did.

I feel like that was the first time that we really saw the David Harrington who

is slow to anger when he reaches the angry part. I had to pimp slap that

I had to pimp slap that bitch.

You had to watch him don't laugh.

It's funny.

A turning point scene for the character that was prominent for a lot of people

and I think for me with David was...

When David was a practicing judge and Hannah comes to him and she prays with

him. Would you please pray with me, Judge Harrington?

Please, please, please.

Father God, we come before you right now. I come for my child, Lord God.

Lord God, I'm praying that all truth will be revealed. The whole truth, Lord

God. I'm praying and I'm binding up the hand of Satan that is trying to destroy

my child.

Father God, in the name of Jesus, I'm asking that you make the way clear and

path straight, Lord God.

And he kind of breaks down because he's doing some shady stuff.

That was a scene that was really powerful.

Coming up. No, no!

There have been too many Tyler Perry plots with The Count.

I was not expecting that.

But this one stands alone as your all -time favorite. We had never seen

anything.

like this.

My most shocking plot twist was definitely when our candid son was

hotel bathroom.

Mama!

Oh, my God.

I had to see Hannah was in the bathroom with him when he was shot and killed,

and that was like wild. I can't believe that they kind of wrote that in there,

that the kid got killed. With Hannah, of all people, you know, it makes me get a

little touched up now thinking about it. I just could not believe that the

little boy passed away.

My all -time best plot twist in the story is when Catherine gave

Hannah power of attorney over her estate and not Jim.

You will take a look at this right here. You'll see that I am the executor of

the estate.

You go, girl. You just kicked Jim in the ass.

What? Yes.

Hang on. Are you telling me...

That you have been made the executor of Catherine's estate.

Every bit of it.

Now, what were you saying to me, Jim, about what I have or have not?

By far the most shocking plot twist in the have and have not was when Hannah

dating Derek, who I was so happy for her, and then it's revealed that he is

actually the man who raped her. That was a shocker. When Hannah connected the

dots. With the tattoo.

And it's Candace's father.

I was not expecting that.

Like, how of all of the people in this city,

how? That was a plot twist. Like, I don't know what the hell. Like, it came

of nowhere.

When Erica's car blew up.

That really took me by surprise. I didn't expect that at all.

The most shocking twist of the theory was when Tyler Perry had the camera move

to show us the burnt remains of Erica after the car explosion.

At that point in the show, we had never seen anything like this.

I mean, Veronica took the beautiful Erica and turned her into something from

Tales of the Crypt.

So I would say that was one of the most shocking cliffhanger moments, the

biggest twist I had ever seen in the haves and the have -nots.

I don't have a favorite scene, but some of the deepest moments that I felt have

been with the character Hannah.

We really have a true, genuine love for each other. We have such a special

relationship on set that it kind of bled into our personal life.

And now that we're towards the end of the road, looking back, it's really fed

some of the stuff that you guys have watched on TV.

My favorite character is Hannah. I love Hannah.

I love the fact that she's a God -fearing woman. She believes in God. Her

is strong, and she loves her family.

Hannah is my favorite because she reminds me of my mom, and then I just

faith. I love the fact that she's going to give it to you straight.

No matter who you are, she's going to give it to you straight. That girl is a

low -down criminal. Watch your mouth.

See, that's my child.

I don't understand how you can still claim her. I don't care if you

or not, but I do.

How?

The same way you stood by wicked -ass Veronica all those years.

Hannah's most unforgettable thing for me was when Candace thought she could

scare her mom into giving the money back. So she called up somebody she knew

go and try to scare her mom.

So when Hannah saw this man up in her kitchen, she went to town on him.

And when Candace found out about it, she really saw the strength of her mom.

She kind of reminds me of my grandmother. My grandmother also worked

wealthy people.

I don't think I have a favorite.

But most of my scenes with the people are like air because they're just so

and so honest.

And every one of my scenes with my babies, he's leply.

Just priceless.

I went to God for you again on my knees, calling out to him for him to watch out

for you. And I heard God say something to me that shocked me.

He told me to stop.

Coming up. I mean, oh my God, I don't think any of us expected that to really

happen. After eight years of jaw -dropping episodes, fans say this scene

very best moment of them all. That's a tough one.

My all -time favorite thing. My favorite all -time scene. Favorite scene of the

show. Will have to be. As I'm sure you can imagine, I've had to think long and

hard about what I'm going to say. The season two finale, when the chickens

home, when Quincy finally finds Candace and she's going at it with Oscar.

But all the while that's happening.

I need to let you know that I am not a perfect man.

Not by any means.

Jen, Catherine, David, and Veronica are at the governor's headquarters, and he's

giving his speech.

And I noticed that Tyler Perry likes to do a lot of double scenes where two

things are going on at the same time in totally different places.

I was like, oh, my God, is Candace going to die? Like, it got pretty eerie. And

so Jeffrey shows up, they battle it out, and they finally kill Quincy.

Stop acting like a local.

Do you hear me?

You're acting like an old sissy at a funeral.

My all -time favorite scene in The Have We Have Not is when Jeffrey Harrington

stabs his mom, Veronica Harrington.

Why do you keep looking at that bottle?

Because I want to hit you over the head with it.

Jeffrey, no.

I thought that was cool. He finally got out his anger that he had been holding

in for so long.

I know it sounds horrible. I should not have been happy, but I was elated.

Can you imagine he wants to hit me in the head with a bottle?

That's like some kind of ghetto bitch in a club. That's not my son.

That's not who you are. Didn't I tell you to get up?

And Veronica

is just beyond wicked.

That one little stab in the implant was not enough.

I mean, oh my God, I don't think any of us expected that to really happen. But I

mean, he just kind of came out of nowhere and stabbed her. So I think the

was over.

Winner.

My all -time favorite scene of the Have and Have Not is... You still help me up.

And you told me I was beautiful.

Candace, when she reconnected with Hannah, with her mom.

And you actually saw the love between the two of them. And you actually got to

see the mother -daughter relationship that you always wanted for them. That

so dope to me. And I was just like, God, can we just keep this going? Because,

please, can we just keep this going? Please forgive me.

It was very tear -jerking. I know I cried. I called my friends. They cried.

got text messages. That was just a great thing. I think I'll never forget it.

To see millions of people tuning in to watch it every Tuesday night, I'm

by it. I'm humbled, I'm grateful, and I'm thankful more than anything. Thank

so much.

Watching you guys for many of years, you became part of our family every Tuesday

night. I love hearing from you. Thank you, guys. You have made this

the haves and the have -nots, the best experience of my whole career.

Thank you.

Like, you all are so freaking talented.

Like, it's crazy to watch.

What makes it worth it is when the fans, when you all appreciate what we do,

that's what it's all about.

I love it. I hate that you're going to be gone, but... I will be watching the

finale every Tuesday night on home. I love you guys.

I'm on the edge of my seat wondering who's going to make it out alive.

It's been such a fun ride from start to finish.

For me to see somebody like me, the same color as me, on TV and doing what

they're doing, that's very inspiring.

A big shout out to the CAD.

They are amazing. I love you all.

I've never missed an episode, and I don't know what I'm going to do on

nights anymore.

To me, it's like you all are family.

We can watch the half and the half now.

Fully be inspired.

Thank you for a life -changing experience.

If I could say one thing to the cast and the crew, and Mr. Tyler Perry as well,

simply thank you.

Thank you for bringing these folks into our lives each and every week, and you

definitely will be missed. It's been a wild ride, and I'm glad that I stuck

around for all of it.

The one message I have for Mr.

Tyler Perry, if Candace and Charles don't end up together, I'm going to find

you, and we're going to have to have a nice conversation because they belong

together. And if you don't make sure that that happens, I'm going to be
