On the next “Jersey Strong” Season 1 Episode 5 “Separate Ways“, tensions come to a head between Maggie and her daughter Nicole, who wants to go out after hours and argues with her mother who remains over-protective of her daughter–with good reason. Maggie works at a criminal firm and sees what happens to people every day and remains adamant about protecting Maggie from it. Creep’s grandmother passes; conflict arises between Creep and Jayda.
From the team behind the Peabody Award winning series, “Brick City”, this Newark-based docu-soap chronicles the lives of two families from parallel universes — the street and the executive suite. Former Blood (Jayda) and Crip (Creep) gang members are raising two kids while pursuing their careers and following their dreams. Jayda is working to build mentorship programs for young women in Newark, while Creep balances a day job in sanitation with his dream of launching a comedy career. Brooke is a trial attorney balancing the stress of high stakes litigation with the real life drama of raising two college-aged kids with her partner in life and business – Maggie. “Jersey Strong” will explore Newark’s warm center and tough exterior through the eyes of two unconventional families striving to achieve the American Dream.
