When one of her housemates faces a crisis, Maddie learns the hard way that sobriety is about the choices we make, not just staying drug-free, on an all-new episode of “Recovery Road,” airing MONDAY, FEBRUARY 29 (9:00-10:00 p.m. EST) on Freeform, the new name for ABC Family.
In the episode “Heaven Backwards,” which unfolds in real time, Maddie is at a loss with how to help when Trish faces a crisis. But Maddie’s good intentions may have a devastating effect on her roommate. Wes is struggling with a secret, which is compounded by the chaos happening in the house. Cynthia bonds with Craig, while Charlotte reaches out to Margarita for insight involving Maddie. And a disturbing truth comes to light at Springtime Meadows. Flashbacks highlight Wes’ frenetic childhood, which may have set him on his current path.
The episode, titled “Heaven Backwards,” was written by Michael Gans and Richard Register, and directed by Chris Grismer.
Based on the popular young adult novel by Blake Nelson, “Recovery Road” stars Jessica Sula (“Skins”), Sebastian de Souza (“The Borgias”), Sharon Leal (“Dreamgirls”), Alexis Carra (“Mixology”), Kyla Pratt (“Dr. Doolittle”), Daniel Franzese (“Mean Girls”), and David Witts (“EastEnders”).
