The Root of All Evil is the ninth episode of the fourth season of the American television drama series Mistresses. The episode aired on August 8, 2016, and was directed by Jerry O'Connell. The storyline revolves around a host of complicated romantic relationships between the four main female characters of the series.

The episode picks up with Joss (Jes Macallan) and Harry (Brett Tucker) still struggling to get on the same page since Harry's betrayal and the loss of their baby. Joss is anxious to move forward and has convinced herself that she and Harry need a fresh start in order to repair their marriage and have a family. She's hoping that Harry's newfound interest in launching a new restaurant will provide the release he needs from his guilt, but he remains distant and non-communicative.

Meanwhile, Karen (Yunjin Kim) is tackling her own relationship issues as she tries to balance her new relationship with returning attorney Alec (Ed Quinn) and her loyalty to Will (Corbin Bleu), who is struggling to come to terms with his own sexuality. She wants to support Will through this transition, but she also can't ignore her feelings for Alec. Her counselor, April (Rochelle Aytes), advises her to be honest with both men, but Karen is still unsure of her next move.

Giuliana (Mia Kirshner), fresh out of prison and looking to make amends, seeks out Evelyn (Shannyn Sossamon), Harry's sister and current head of the family business, after hearing about her troubled relationship with her husband. Evelyn is hesitant to let Giuliana in, but they bond over their shared experiences trying to make their way in a man's world. Evelyn's feelings for her estranged husband are still evident, however, and she is caught off guard when she receives a surprise visit from him at work.

Finally, April is dealing with her own set of romantic problems after discovering that her estranged husband, Blair (Brian Gattas), has been hiding a serious illness from her. Despite the fact that they're in the middle of a divorce, April still cares for Blair and wants to support him through his struggle. However, her newfound relationship with Marc (Rob Mayes) is starting to blossom, and she's unsure of how she can balance both men at the same time.

The Root of All Evil is a tense and emotional episode that shows the titular mistresses dealing with the consequences of their complicated love lives. The show's engaging performances and intricate plotlines keep viewers on the edge of their seats as they watch the characters navigate their way through their many challenges.
