Episode 14 follows Michelle’s hard crash after the Idol scandal. A police officer breaks the news that her manager, Hayes, has cleaned out her accounts and fled; the bank won’t help, the landlady demands rent, and every “friend” she turns to—Chris, Tina—shrugs her off. With nowhere to go and nothing left, Michelle sings “How Did I Get Here?”, a raw lament that faces the gap between the future she chased and the ruins she’s living in.

Hungry and hollowed out, Michelle wanders into a soup kitchen run by Pastor Moses Brown. He does not shame her; he serves her. Their conversation is simple, human, and grace-soaked: church isn’t for people who have it together, he says, it’s for people who know they don’t. When he mentions that Suzanne has been interning there—and praying for her—Michelle is stunned. The person she wounded most never stopped interceding.

Pastor Moses invites Michelle to start with one honest step: show up, eat, rest, receive mercy. The episode closes with “God’s Got You,” a gospel declaration over rubble: God’s care is not cancelled by our collapse. The tone shifts from disgrace to grace, from running to returning—hinting that the road home begins right where pride finally ends.
