Snowfall Season 6 Recap

Here are mini recaps of each episode from the sixth season…

Season 6 Episode 1 Premiere “Fallout”

After Teddy stole over 70 million dollars from Franklin Saint, he gunned down Jerome and Louie’s guards and stole a large stockpile of their cocaine from their warehouse. When the couple found out, they asked for it to be returned, yet Franklin was unwilling to give it up. To add insult to injury, he approached some of their buyers to supply them at cut rates.

Season 6 Episode 2 “The Sit Down”

Cissy confronted Franklin about Alton’s death. She wanted revenge against Teddy for killing Alton in Cuba. She urged him to side with the KGB and introduced him to her contact, Ruben.

Meanwhile, Franklin entrusted Veronique and her con-woman mother, Cassandra, to help retrieve his stolen home. They determined he had help moving the funds.

Jerome was patient with Franklin, awaiting his return phone call. However, Franklin dodged his uncle until Cissy met with Jerome and brokered a peaceful meeting between the two. They met at a public dinner. Jerome told Franklin about how he used to be proud of his nephew, but it turns into disgust.

Jerome struck Franklin, so Franklin pulled a gun on him. Jerome dared him to shoot though Franklin didn’t…

Season 6 Episode 3 “Door of No Return”

Leon and Wanda visited Ghana and lived a joyous life, and the couple got married. Wanda had been clean from crack rock for some time. Though Lee wasn’t completely fulfilled. He convinced Wanda to return to South Central Los Angeles in hopes of doing good in the hood…

When Leon returned, Big Deon had taken over, and the projects were in turmoil. He tried to convince the new leader to look out for his people, but that fell on deaf ears. Visiting Jerome and Louie was unsuccessful as Lee tried to broker a truce. They told him he wasn’t family and to mind his business. Finally, Leon met with Franklin, who encouraged him to avoid the deadly family feud…

Season 6 Episode 4 “Projects Boy”

Franklin struck a deal with Kane, who got out of the hospital. Though Franklin wasn’t making money fast enough, he offered to improve Kane’s cookhouses himself. After some violent personnel changes, he cooks crack himself.

Meanwhile, Veronique and Cassandra track down the accountant who helps Teddy steal Franklin’s money. Teddy withdrew and hid the cash…

Franklin’s heavy-handed push for efficiency blew back on him when goons (sanctioned by Jerome and Louie) came to kill him, and Kane in a driveby-shooting turned home invasion. Fortunately for him, they killed the men and fled.

Big D had been taunting Leon since his return. After repeatedly shooting out the Projects lights, Lee attacked Big D. The two fought fiercely, and Lil Lee prevailed… reclaiming his throne as king of the Projects.

Season 6 Episode 5 “Ebony and Ivory”

Franklin Saint is close to forever changing the fate of his bloodline. No longer will they be descendants of defeated Black Panthers, but his wish is to shift towards wealth!

Although Kane’s disgruntled cook house worker (whose face was scolded on the stove by Franklin) was one of many triggermen, but the true motivation behind the hit came from Jerome and Louie.

While Ruben has been hunting Teddy, the defunct CIA agent has been countering with his own intelligence in pursuing the KGB agent. Teddy tracks down and breaks into Ruben’s home and learns that he is a KGB lone wolf.

Now that Leon has asserted control of the projects by beating Big D up, he must maintain that control.

Meanwhile, Franklin finally connects with Teddy and demands his 73 million dollars back. This time he has leverage. Of course, Teddy refuses, so Franklin steps up the pressure by finding his next of kin… his father, Colonel Robert McDonald (portrayed by John Diehl.) Franklin murdered Teddy’s father and burned his house down! An eye for an eye…

Season 6 Episode 6 “Concrete Jungle”

Franklin braces for fallout after murdering Teddy’s father. Cassandra tries to convince Veronique to leave Franklin and come with her, but she declines and stays with him. Jerome told Louie he was done with selling drugs!

Gustavo offers Teddy up to Franklin and makes him promise to kill him. Teddy confronts Ruben and warns him to walk away, or he will kill him.

Kane seeks revenge against Buckley, so he kidnaps and tortures Louie for his whereabouts. Kane gave Franklin an opportunity to kill Louie, but he refused. Franklin got in touch with Jerome, and he helped his uncle go after Louie. However, in a standoff with Kane, Jerome was killed!

Season 6 Episode 7 “Charnel House”

Teddy’s ex-wife, Julia, is now pregnant and urged to return Franklin’s money and get out of the operation because her life is in danger. She left him with an ultimatum to exit or risk being exposed. Teddy refuses and continues to hunt for Franklin.

Ruben broke into Gustavo’s home while he was sleeping and threatened him to transport and plant a large cocaine shipment in Teddy’s warehouse so that he could stage a raid. Gustavo was out of time and options, so he confessed his entrapment (between the DEA, CIA, and KGB) to Franklin and asked for help.

After Jerome’s funeral, Louie asks Franklin why he returned for her. He needed her to help to trap Teddy

Season 6 Episode 8 “Ballad of the Bear”

Franklin and Gustavo set a plan in motion to trap Teddy. Franklin works with Louie to make it seem like she kidnapped Franklin for Teddy to avenge Jerome’s death.

Gustavo obtained passports and cash for his family to flee. He hoped to escape after setting up Teddy. However, the DEA caught wind of his impending escape and arrested him, calling off the cooperation deal.

Ruben intercepted Gustavo and forced him to the warehouse, where Teddy meticulously prepared to kill and dispose of Franklin’s body. Ruben disarmed Teddy and handcuffed him. In a melee, Gustavo knocked Ruben out, and rescued Franklin from hanging to death, and the duo decided what to do with Teddy…

Season 6 Episode 9 “Sacrifice”

In the penultimate episode, Franklin attempts to recover his stolen money. Franklin plays Russian Roulette with Teddy, and Ruben reveals the KGB has Franklin on tape.

Cissy spoke with Teddy, and he told her Alton was still alive. Franklin plays Russian Roulette with Teddy and tortures him by scolding him with hot cooking oil. Franklin learned the truth behind Teddy’s double cross. Teddy breaks and proposes to split the money with Franklin, and ultimately Franklin agrees.

When they met to hand Teddy over to his CIA liaison, Cissy asked about Alton. Teddy told her he lied. Cissy shot and killed Teddy before Franklin’s money could be transferred. Franklin got away while Cissy was arrested!

Season 6 Episode 10 Finale “The Struggle”

The Snowfall saga comes to a tragic end.

Ruben was handed over to the CIA. Cissy pleads guilty to murder, spending the rest of her life in prison. Louie got away but was nearly captured by the DEA. Gustavo taught wrestling to youth and finally received a call from Xiamara to reunite.

Veronique took Franklin’s remaining money and fled with their son. Franklin never saw them again. Wanda moved to Ghana. Eventually, Leon joined her. Five years later, he returned to help is best friend Franklin, but he was too far gone.

The Snowfall writers wrote a tragic ending for our protagonist that even we didn’t see coming! Franklin’s karma caught up to him. His addiction to retrieving his money made him lose his way. He ultimately lost everything (his money and family) and became addicted to crack cocaine. But through it all, Franklin was free to live his way…

Will There Be A Snowfall Season 7?

No. Season 6 is the last and final season, concluding the Snowfall saga.

Is There A Snowfall Spinoff?

According to Deadline, there is a Snowfall spinoff in early developments at FX. Gail Bean (Wanda Bell) is rumored to star in the series.

Snowfall Cast Interviews

Damson Idris recently said in an interview about the series’ conclusion, “I think all of us gave it our all… blood, sweat, and tears. So, that’s translated on the screen. It’s a bittersweet moment.” Damson continues by describing Franklin Saint, “It was a spiritual journey. I felt so connected with Franklin, to see a young boy try and better himself by any means possible. It made me empathize a lot with people from that world. And I think audiences do, too.”

In an interview, Damson shared with Celebrity Myxer a few years ago, he leaked the fact that Amin Joesph’s character (Uncle Jerome would be killed!) Watch the exclusive video below…

Isaiah John, who portrays Leon, characterizes the show, “It’s extremely emotional. Where we leave these characters is in a spot of the unknown.” Angela Lewis concludes about her character, “Each character this season goes on an epic journey. I will say that by the end, Louie has learned a lot.”

Sergio Peris-Mencheta explains, “From the beginning, El Oso is following a path. And he’s trying to survive and to build a family. That’s what makes Oso sp loveable, and that’s where you can empathize with the character.”

One of our favorite characters, Amin Joseph, describes the show, “It feels good that people will come back year after year to tune in, and that we’ve had a growing audience. Something we’re doing is right. We did that all the way to completion.”

“It’s a big conclusion to this big story that they’ve been telling. I think it’s gonna really affect people,” says Carter Hudson, who portrays Teddy McDonald and Reed Thompson. “I think some people are gonna be angry about it. And some people are going to be thrilled by it, but I hope that everybody is entertained by it,” which further leads us to speculate there will be a deadly climax for the main characters.

We have speculated that Franklin will either be killed or disappear in a country far away from U.S. extradition. Executive producer and Snowfall writer, Walter Mosley, gave us a hint about the sixth season’s conclusion by describing, “It comes to a strong ending. And one that will surprise you, but at the same time, you’ll say, oh yeah, that’s exactly what would have happened.” Mosley’s statement alludes to one of the two conclusions…

    Franklin will again come face to face with Louie and with his gun pointed at her he will say “out of respect for Jerome, I won’t kill you”. And when she breathes a sigh of relief, he shoots her between the eyes anyways…
