Crazed Gunman on ABC’s ‘Queens’ Revealed to Be Christian Pastor: ‘It’s God’s Plan’

Can’t say we didn’t see this one coming! As we near the day when we celebrate Jesus’s birth, Hollywood is at it again with their typical, anti-Christian storylines. This time it’s in the form of a Christian pastor turned crazed gunman who attempted to kill members of an R&B girl group, which includes his estranged wife, as part of “God’s plan.”

ABC’s Queens has portrayed Pastor Darren (Emerson Brooks) in a bad light from the beginning, while portraying his estranged wife Jill (Naturi Naughton), who left him for another woman, as a “hero” (a label given to her by a closeted priest, as an added bonus.)

On Tuesday’s mid-season finale, “God’s Plan,” Brianna (Eve), a member of the R&B group, is fighting for her life in the hospital after being shot along with the group’s manager. The episode follows a detective as he tries to identify the perpetrator. There are several key suspects – a con artist who was pretending to be the long-lost mother of one of the women, Jill’s scorned lesbian lover, and a man who the manager owed a significant amount of money to, all of whom had made threats.

Jill is praying for Brianna at the hospital chapel. But we soon discover that it wasn’t any of those suspects. It was Jill’s pastor husband Darren, who ends up being completely deranged, talking about “God’s plan” as he tries to strangle his wife to death. It was because of this:

Darren: It’s a joy to watch you pray.

Jill: What’s the point of being here?

Darren, It’s something I have always loved. This is so simple. You and I have always discussed God’s plans for our baby. It is something I strongly believe in. Everything happens for a reason.

Jill, I’m not sure what you are referring to.

Darren: Shh. To accept God’s plans requires faith. Devotion. This helps you get through both good and bad times.

Jill: Are there any bad things?

Jill: I believe again in you, Darren. It’s God’s will for us to get together. It’s why the bullet did not hit you tonight.

Police: Let’s get it locked down. This is how it works. Come with me, you two. Let’s go!

Surgeon: Clamp.

Jill: Darren, you didn’t.

Darren: God’s plan.

Surgeon: She’s crashing. This bleeding is too much for me to control.

Darren: God’s plan, Jill. God’s plan.

Hollywood-style Merry Christmas to Christian Pastors! Nothing hits like a heaping pile of religious bigotry, amirite? Let’s hope Santa leaves nothing but coal for these writers.
