The new season of 'Black Ink Crew Chicago' has began and it's already a mess in 9Mag!

Out of spite for what Ryan considered family turning against him, he decided to destroy the tattoo shop leaving Van to pick up the pieces. Ryan made sure noone was going to make any money at the shop. Although Charmaine still has her weekend job at WGCI and Phor is making big moves in his music career, the rest of the employees don't have a back up plan.

Ryan had no remorse for what he did to 9Mag. He felt everyone turned against him because of what transpired between he and Kat. He felt as if Van took the females side over his. Ryan made it clear that he wants nothing else to do with 9Mag. He also revealed that the lease would be up in a week. With Ryan walking away will Van be able to save 9Mag?

Don and Ashley

Looks like Don is living up to his male thottish ways again! He then got himself in some more trouble but this time it might be over for him for good. Don cheated on his wife Ashley of two years and he didn't even try to hide it. Don already cheated on Ashley with Charmaine, had a baby on Ashley with a random chick, had a fling the day before he got married and let a chick give him head on snap chat.  Unfortunately, Ashley isn't so forgiving this time. She said Don crossed the line this time but he crossed the line a long time ago when he had sex with Charmaine in the first season.

Now that 9Mag is on it's last leg what is Van and the rest of the crew going to do now? From the looks of things like Richard aka O S**t of 'Black Ink Crew New York', Don can't afford to unemployed with three kids and a possible fourth!

The season has just began and there's chaos and confusion already at Black Ink 113. Ceasar appointed his cousin Teddy as the manager but as it turns out he couldn't handle running the all girl tattoo shop as he set out to do.

From the time Teddy was put in position he started making big moves.First he put a stripper pole in the front of the store. Then he turned Ceasar's office into what he called the Boom Boom room. He hired a new female artist named Young Bae and another artist whom Dutchess and Ceasar previously turned down named Tiffany.

 After having a fight with Ceasars new assistant named Kitty, Young Bae heard a rumor about Tiffany talking about her and she addressed it but not in a professional manner. Too bad that wasn't the only bad thing happening at the shop. When Ceasar and Dutchess arrived at the shop on 113th he was greeted with an extremely high light bill for $3900. He was even more pissed when he learned about the fight between new tattoo artists Young Bae and Tiffany and his office had been transformed into a sex domain.

To make matters worse Ted was no where to be found which only made Ceasar more furious. Before the boss man left the shop he dismissed Ted and placed Dutchess in charge of running 'Black Ink 113'. Too bad so sad for Sky! Did Ceasar make the right choice by putting Dutchess in charge?

In other news Richard formerly known as O S**t proposed to his girlfriend NIkki and she said yes!

Congrats to Richard and Nikki on their engagement and good luck to all the females at Black Ink 113. You are going to need!
