Really enjoyed this but one question.....


Did Bettys grandson set the fire to the house? When Coretta went to visit her in the hospital Betty said it was not his fault. I took it as she did not want to see her grandson go to jail. I guess I coulsd do some research but would like to read what others got from that scene.

Yes he did. In June of 1997 he set a fire in her apartment in NYC. He was sentenced to 18 months in juvenile detention for manslaughter and arson.
