In more recent scenes, Yolande met with Delia, though it soon became clear that she was having second thoughts about reliving her ordeal. Knowing that the only way to get Pastor Clayton arrested was to get Delia to speak to police, Yolande begged her to stay and chat. As the pair talked, Delia revealed that she had tried to speak out against Pastor Clayton before, but it hadn’t helped her at all, as nothing had been done, so she couldn’t see how trying again now would help. Yolande began to open up about her experience, and how the Pastor had made her feel in the hopes of striking a chord with her, before promising that Delia wouldn’t be speaking out alone this time. Eventually, Delia agreed to speak to the police, and Yolande accompanied her to the station for moral support. With both Yolande and Delia speaking out against Pastor Clayton, will he finally be brought to justice?
