Condola comes to assist firefighter Dean (Okieriete Onaodowan), suing the police after he got arrested while attempting to reconnect a Black mother with her two daughters. The two characters carry a romantic history as well.
Showrunner Krista Vernoff said,
Khalilah Joi was the heart and soul of ‘Silent All These Years’ and I wanted to work with her again just because she’s such an extraordinary artist.
She added,
I wanted to give her a chance to play a relatively pain-free character. It’s a joy to have her back!
Condola will make her debut appearance on Station 19 in the upcoming episode entitled Make No Mistake, He’s Mine, which airs next week.
