Based on the best-selling novel by Zakiya Dalila Harris, the series centers on Nella (played by Daniel), an editorial assistant who was tired of being the only black girl at the fictional publishing house Wagner Books. She was thrilled when Hazel (Riverdale Ashleigh Murray) was hired, but fell through following a series of microaggressions that occurred just as Hazel’s star was beginning to rise.

Nella then uncovered a sinister plot involving Hazel, who turned out to be a recruiter for a secret cult led by Nella’s idol, Diana Gordon (Garcelle Beauvais), that was using a special hair grease to brainwash black women into assimilating into white society.

The season finale — which now serves as the series finale — saw Nella attend a staff meeting with straightened hair instead of her natural afro, suggesting she has assimilated. However, a subsequent phone call to resistance allies Malaika (The CW’s 4400 Reboot veteran Brittany Adebumola and Kendra Rae (Bel-Air (April Parker Jones) hinted that Nella was working to bring down the organization from within.

The cast also included Hunter Parrish (Weeds) as Nella’s boyfriend Owen, Bellamy Young (Scandal) as the editor of Nella, Vera and Eric McCormack (Will and Grace) as the company’s CEO, Richard Wagner.

All 10 episodes were broadcast in a burst on September 13.
