The spot on Manhattan’s Upper West Side is, unsurprisingly, run by the gang boss Big Heavy, whose cronies kidnapped Hakeem. Cookie begins planning a Lyon Dynasty festival (garishly called “Cookie’s Cookout”), and while scouting locations that would give the event a suitable hip-hop flair, she’s convinced by Laz to choose Rock Steady Park. As Rhonda feared early on in the season, Andre’s pastor knows too much, and won’t be long before he, too, tries to burn the family.Ĭookie and Laz are growing closer, and while it still seems implausible that the preternaturally shrewd Lyon matriarch wouldn’t realize she’s in bed with a crook, literally and figuratively, a romantic staycation, like the one the couple shared in New York, can do wonders for one’s judgment.

Typically worming out of litigations of this nature involves a trip to the Mayor’s office to romance his assistant Raquel, but as a reformed, religious man, Andre is advised to opt for blackmail instead of adultery. Andre’s pastor finally started shelling out the terrible advice we knew he had in him, as Lucious asks his son to get rid of a gang injunction hampering growth for his protégé Freda Gatz, who Andre despises as a new hire with expensive legal problems. With the show’s midseason finale looming at the end of the month, Wednesday’s episode was chess-like buildup. In a week light on kidnapping, theft, murder and backstabbing, is the calm just a temporary comfort to snatch out from under us later? The show’s sole constant is deceiving appearances. Everyone mostly stayed put this week, and it was unnerving. In an “Empire” season that has drawn its strength from the dizzying unpredictability of its moves, Episode 7 felt like a bit of a come down.
