When we last saw the Proud family, they traveled to Oklahoma to meet Suga Mama’s estranged family where viewers learned the tough-as-nails matriarch of the Proud family has a strained relationship with her father.
Pa seemingly disowned Suga Mama, whose real name we learn is Charlette, after a disagreement years ago over whether or not she could represent the family in a rodeo championship because of her gender. (Charlette’s father believed that a woman’s place was in the kitchen, not bull riding.)
Before the show returns next year, Insider’s debuting a clip from the season two premiere, “Old Towne Road Pt. 2,” which premiered Sunday exclusively at Disney’s D23 Expo for fans who attended the series’ panel. The scene teases that while Suga Mama may have gotten older, she still has her bull riding skills and she’s finally not afraid to show them off, especially if her son, Oscar, is in danger and needs saving. (When doesn’t he?)
Jumping on the bull certainly won’t have smooth things over between Charlette and Pa. Can the two patch things up and start over?
According to the premiere’s one-liner, it’s easier said than done:
“Realizing nothing has changed, Suga Mama decides to run away from Oklahoma yet again but when her mysterious past catches up to her, she decides to prove her father wrong and alter the course of her family legacy.”
Suga Mama finally shows her family her skill set.
