Black Ink Crew: New York Season 3 Episode 2 Extra Baggage

After a heated confrontation between Ceaser and Dutchess in the season premiere of Black Ink Crew: New York, tensions remain high at the tattoo shop. In episode 2, entitled "Extra Baggage," the crew prepares for a big event at the shop - a pop-up art exhibit that will showcase the work of the Black Ink artists.

As they get ready for the exhibit, the crew grapples with personal issues that threaten to distract them from their work. Puma, the shop's former co-owner who recently returned to Black Ink, finds himself struggling to balance his family life with his work at the shop. His wife, Quani, is pregnant with their second child, and Puma worries that he won't be able to provide for his growing family.

Meanwhile, Ted, the shop's resident graphic designer, is dealing with personal issues of his own. He recently broke up with his girlfriend and is having a hard time moving on. When he learns that his ex-girlfriend has moved on and is dating someone new, Ted becomes jealous and starts acting out at the shop.

As the crew prepares for the exhibit, tensions between Ceaser and Dutchess continue to simmer. Ceaser is still hurt by Dutchess's decision to leave the shop and move to North Carolina, and he's struggling to move on from their relationship. Dutchess, on the other hand, is determined to start fresh and build a new life for herself outside of New York.

Despite all the personal drama, the crew manages to pull off a successful art exhibit that showcases the diverse talents of the Black Ink artists. The shop is packed with art enthusiasts who are eager to view the paintings, sculptures, and other works on display.

As the episode comes to a close, the crew reflects on the challenges they've faced and the hard work it takes to succeed in the competitive world of tattoo artistry. They know that there will be more challenges ahead, but they're confident that they can overcome any obstacles as long as they stick together as a team.
