00:02 [Music]
00:06 Alright, so
00:08 It's starting up
00:10 Did you see the footage I put in there of Kendrick?
00:13 Yeah, we talked about that last week
00:15 Okay, I'm just making sure you saw it
00:17 Yeah, that was great
00:18 Let me play it again for those of y'all that didn't see it
00:20 No, don't play it again
00:22 Let's talk about something different
00:24 What you wanna talk about?
00:25 You're messing up my intro
00:26 Let me just vibe to this
00:28 Yeah
00:30 It's like episode, what is it?
00:33 Episode 6? Episode 5?
00:35 6
00:36 So how many more episodes in the show?
00:39 I think, um
00:41 10?
00:43 No, it's 8
00:44 It's 8? So this is almost over
00:46 Alright, so we better get it on
00:48 Yeah!
00:50 Uh
00:51 James Bond
00:55 Y'all know about James Bond, y'all know nothing
00:58 Hold on, bro
01:03 10 episodes
01:04 10 episodes, we halfway through
01:06 Here you go
01:08 Yeah
01:10 Here you go
01:12 Uh, uh
01:14 Who with me with this part?
01:16 This your favorite part?
01:18 Oh, yeah
01:21 Come up hard
01:24 Yeah, y'all like that blowing?
01:26 Make it
01:27 That's the best part right there
01:28 I would say that's the best you've done
01:31 I've been practicing
01:33 You need to say something
01:35 So we not even a scene deep in
01:37 And I'm already not feeling this whole situation
01:40 Right
01:41 So, I'm glad Ghost is back, he's back home
01:44 Right
01:45 I'm glad that you know he got to sleep in his bed
01:47 Right
01:48 What I don't like is the fact that he's
01:51 Realist as to why Tasha is not sleeping in the bed with him
01:56 It's like, dude
01:58 For the last three seasons
02:00 You have been with this other woman
02:02 Right
02:03 Since episode one
02:04 It's not even like episode three of season one
02:07 It was like since episode one
02:09 Episode one?
02:10 Yes, he saw Angela in the club
02:12 Boom, instantly hooked
02:14 Oh
02:16 Alright, so there's a couple things I have a problem with
02:19 They've never really explained any back story
02:22 As to why Ghost was dissatisfied with Tasha in the first place
02:26 Like I refuse to believe that
02:28 You know, a high school fling
02:31 You know, just throws you off
02:33 And just makes you date this woman
02:36 Or whatever
02:37 Well no they have, because basically the whole issue was that
02:39 Ghost always wanted to go
02:41 He wanted to go proper, he wanted to be
02:44 A businessman and Tasha always wanted to stay straight
02:47 And they were on different planes
02:49 So he wanted to get legit and she didn't want to be legit
02:52 I think that was the basis of the rift between them
02:55 And that's where Angela helped him with the legitimacy
02:58 But Angela didn't bring anything to the table
03:01 She was just a person
03:03 And it's not like her skill set was running clubs
03:06 Her skill set was being a fed
03:09 Which as soon as he found that out he should have ran
03:12 So this is really all his damn fault
03:15 It is his fault, but she believed in him as a legit guy
03:20 He was able to kind of start over
03:23 This facade life with her as a legit person
03:27 Of being Jamie
03:30 So I don't think you can say that they didn't explain it
03:33 And there was no, ok
03:35 You're saying he didn't ever say he fell out of love with her
03:37 Right
03:38 Did he fall out of love or was it just something
03:41 See drug dealers like that
03:43 You're talking about somebody who's around a lot of money
03:46 A lot of women
03:48 He's never cheated before
03:50 He was always on the up and up with Tasha
03:52 Right
03:54 But it's different
03:56 What he had with Angela wouldn't be considered just a fling
03:59 A one night stand
04:01 He was bringing back old emotions from somebody
04:03 Who he felt he had unfinished business with
04:05 His father kicked him out of her life
04:09 And told her that she couldn't see him pretty much
04:12 They didn't have a closure
04:15 So they had a relationship back then
04:17 It had to end
04:19 And here she comes walking back into his life
04:22 And he could be somebody new and he could get legit
04:25 I don't find a problem with that
04:27 But I do agree with you
04:29 Listen, you trying to walk up the next day
04:31 And everybody's supposed to be
04:33 Hey, go shoot back
04:35 And we're just going to click right back into where you left off
04:37 No
04:39 That's just crazy
04:41 You know
04:43 What did he say
04:45 He was like
04:47 I wish Angela never walked in the club that day
04:49 You put it all on her
04:51 It's not Angela's fault
04:53 You're the one that saw her from afar
04:55 And ran down and made sure to
04:57 Reintroduce yourself
04:59 As ghost
05:01 It wasn't Angela's fault
05:03 It definitely wasn't Tasha's fault
05:05 He hasn't taken responsibility
05:07 And I think that's where the problem is right here
05:09 So let's continue watching
05:11 He needs to listen to that Jay Z 440 album
05:13 That's what he needs to do
05:15 444
05:17 He needs to listen to the title track
05:19 And learn how to be a man and take some responsibility
05:21 Wow
05:23 What's your problem? Why are you all wrapped?
05:25 Alright
05:27 Tasha, the last time I saw Tasha
05:29 She said
05:31 Don't be making no moves without consulting me first
05:33 Right
05:35 And then she goes and makes a deal
05:37 With the Stern dude
05:39 That Jamie doesn't even know about
05:41 Well he just got out
05:43 He's only been out for one
05:45 He hasn't been out for 24 hours yet
05:47 So what kind of deal did you make
05:49 From the time they said
05:51 Not guilty
05:53 To the time Jamie opened his eyes
05:55 Wait wait wait
05:57 When he told her that
05:59 What was the time frame
06:01 That was before he got out of the album
06:03 No, he was
06:05 In episode 5
06:07 She was talking to the new lawyer
06:09 And he was like
06:11 You should get yourself a floater
06:13 So he was like Jamie should be out in a couple of hours
06:15 Right
06:17 So you couldn't wait a couple of hours to get some money
06:19 What you need to get your hair did?
06:21 Okay
06:25 Alright
06:27 This is some real
06:29 Empire writing at it's best
06:31 Oh my god
06:33 I need to know
06:35 This better get better
06:37 You pull it together
06:39 Because we're starting to get concerned
06:41 I don't know if maybe one of your interns are writing right now
06:43 But this is a little concerning
06:45 How she took this long
06:47 That quickly
06:49 So why don't we give her a chance
06:51 She's shown herself to be very
06:53 You know reliable
06:55 Let's give her a chance, let's get back to the show
06:57 Julian does know Kanan
06:59 Right
07:01 Last week you felt that Julio didn't know Kanan
07:03 Right Julio didn't know Kanan
07:05 Now I did do some research
07:07 And I realized that
07:09 There was a point
07:11 Remember when Kanan first got out of prison
07:13 Oh yeah
07:15 Tommy started to introduce him
07:17 And such so maybe Tommy
07:19 And Julio
07:21 I mean maybe Julio met Kanan that time
07:23 Right
07:25 But he don't know that Kanan is supposed to be dead
07:27 Right
07:29 And he mentioned here that they said if you see Kanan
07:31 Kill him on sight
07:33 Hmm
07:35 My question is right
07:37 Now here's the flip back
07:39 Here's where it gets kind of murky
07:41 Julio sees Tommy
07:43 I mean Julio sees Dre
07:45 Talking to Kanan
07:47 He questions why Dre didn't kill
07:49 Kanan on sight
07:51 Dre says well he was in the club what was I supposed to do
07:53 So why Julio
07:55 Ain't stick around and kill Kanan in his damn self
07:57 (Crickets)
07:59 Hmm
08:01 Okay
08:03 So I'm like
08:05 I don't understand that so you just went home and went to sleep
08:07 Like yeah I know Tommy
08:09 Told us to kill him
08:11 But I don't understand why Tommy would have told them that anyway
08:13 When they know that Kanan was supposed to be dead
08:15 Why would he tell them if you see Kanan
08:17 Shoot him on sight
08:19 I don't know see that's another good point right
08:21 Maybe
08:23 Julio's missing a few pieces
08:25 Of the puzzle because
08:27 Maybe the last time
08:29 Tommy mentioned Kanan
08:31 It was before
08:33 Well no the last time
08:35 Tommy and
08:37 Ghost had to
08:39 Pull a maneuver where Ghost got
08:41 Kanan to show up to the warehouse
08:43 And that's when Ghost and him had to fight
08:45 And he killed him so
08:47 Really it happened just that quick where
08:49 Nobody really knew that there was a beef with Kanan
08:51 It just was like boom we gonna get rid of this dude
08:53 And
08:55 Unfortunately Ghost did not
08:57 Get rid of Kanan
08:59 Right but I don't understand why they would have ever warned
09:01 These guys when they know that he's dead
09:03 Right they would have never
09:05 They would have never warned
09:07 Is that what they said did they say
09:09 Yeah if you want we can rewind it
09:11 Alright rewind it and we'll talk about it
09:13 At the next break
09:15 Alright okay so we rewound
09:17 The video
09:19 Right and he specifically said
09:21 If we see
09:23 Kanan walking around shoot that MF up on site
09:25 Right
09:27 I'm just saying maybe there was a point when
09:29 Tommy and I don't remember
09:31 Because I all of the seasons
09:33 Mentioned to one where Tommy
09:35 Was having an issue with Kanan
09:37 And that was the last
09:39 Communication that he had about Kanan
09:41 The last time Tommy met
09:43 With Kanan he went to the
09:45 Jamaican spot and was like
09:47 Yo I got beef with Ghost too
09:49 That's when Kanan didn't
09:51 Really trust him he was like you got out of prison
09:53 Too soon you know
09:55 And all of this that and the other
09:57 And what it was was that Ghost
09:59 Ghost and Tommy kind of conspired
10:01 To get Kanan alone
10:03 So Ghost sent him down to the Jamaican spot
10:05 It's right there in the end of season 2
10:07 Okay alright so basically right now
10:09 We got big question marks over our heads
10:11 Big question mark okay we're very confused Courtney
10:13 Fix it Courtney are we watching Empire
10:15 Alright
10:17 So Ghost and Tasha actually
10:19 Have a conversation
10:21 And
10:23 You know basically he's upset
10:25 That she made a deal behind his back
10:27 And he should have said
10:29 Last episode you told me not to
10:31 Make any deals without
10:33 You and now this episode you're telling me
10:35 That you made a damn deal
10:37 Yeah I still don't understand the
10:39 Timing of it because you're saying that
10:41 It happened
10:43 After she got out of
10:45 Prison and she spoke to the
10:47 The attorney who suggested she had to float up
10:49 Right and then 24 hours
10:51 And then she reached in her bag
10:53 And pulled out the card that Stern gave her
10:55 Hmm
10:57 So I want to say something
10:59 First thing is right
11:01 A lot of people may not realize this but
11:03 Power is actually
11:05 Over the course of 2 to 3
11:07 Weeks
11:09 You know it's not even though we wait a whole
11:11 Year for these episodes
11:13 This is like only a few days have transpired
11:15 You know this is
11:17 So
11:19 This is kind of happening
11:21 You know like the whole
11:23 Ghost getting out of jail and coming home
11:25 You know his clothes were still in the
11:27 In the bag or whatever
11:29 So you can see that it was only a
11:31 Small amount of time
11:33 Since he
11:35 You know
11:37 Got out of prison and she made this deal
11:39 Okay
11:41 Pretty interesting she sat down for the whole scene
11:43 I guess she was pregnant so they
11:45 Hit her stomach and I guess they had to
11:47 Feed her as well
11:49 Shut up
11:51 I'm just saying you know
11:53 You know what that was very interesting you're right
11:55 That's right she would have been showing and that's why
11:57 She was sitting down very smart
11:59 Yeah so let's see the peeling back the layers
12:01 So let's look at all the other scenes
12:03 Well future scenes to see how they
12:05 Disguise her pregnancy or whatever
12:07 Okay you know but I didn't also like
12:09 This whole thing about
12:11 How quickly the argument
12:13 De-escalated and she was like
12:15 Well you're smarter than him you outsmart him
12:17 I'm like well why would you put me in a damn
12:19 Situation where I now gotta
12:21 Figure out a way to outsmart him
12:23 Yeah that's just dumb I mean
12:25 Yeah
12:27 It really it's just yeah
12:29 Yeah this is not being
12:31 Written well
12:33 Courtney
12:35 I think um
12:37 I think Lucius is about to come
12:39 Through the door and save the day
12:41 Alright so um
12:45 Um
12:47 Dre is talking to
12:49 Julio's original gang
12:51 The 718 yeah I forgot the name
12:53 Of it but they all have
12:55 The 718 tattoo on their necks
12:57 Yeah um so it turns out
12:59 That Ghost bought Julio's
13:01 Freedom
13:03 And Julio was allowed to live
13:05 But you know it looks like Dre
13:07 Um
13:09 Has just made a deal to deliver Julio to them
13:11 So they can kill him for
13:13 You know being disloyal
13:15 Right
13:17 And Dre is basically
13:19 Trying to cover his tracks because he knows that
13:21 Julio eventually is going to tell him that he saw
13:23 Canaan and he didn't kill him on sight
13:25 And he's also concerned that Julio
13:27 Continues to be a thorn in his side
13:29 Right
13:31 Okay so they got Julio
13:33 Set up for the kill
13:35 Right and then right now we just saw
13:37 Tommy drinking it up
13:39 And with um
13:41 Serbs in Chicago
13:43 Which was I think
13:45 Was just a weird situation I mean
13:47 It was just like so how's it going
13:49 You know you drove like
13:51 10 hours to Chicago from
13:53 New York just to say
13:55 Yeah it's going kind of good you know
13:57 I came up with some new ways of making money and that's
13:59 All they brought you right here for it
14:01 They said that they want him to manage the Los Angeles
14:03 Business. You can't text me that
14:05 Okay well we know
14:07 That there's something more to it that they just put his behind
14:09 And a dang on the back of the trunk of the car
14:11 Yeah well he must have said something
14:13 Because when he talked about killing Milan
14:15 They all got their eyes up like
14:17 Hmmmm okay
14:19 So let's see where this goes
14:21 Um
14:23 Right now Tommy is in the back of the dang trunk
14:25 That's what that's doing. Yeah
14:27 Alright. Alright
14:29 Rest in peace to Julio
14:31 I am so sad right now
14:33 I am so sad
14:35 Because you know I loved Julio
14:37 And then you had to make it all long
14:41 Like come on you know come on y'all don't have no type
14:43 Of freaking compassion man
14:45 Like he's a freaking main character
14:47 You don't freaking let him go out like that man
14:49 Come on
14:51 And then we gotta watch him like drag himself along the floor
14:53 And like
14:55 Die like what was the purpose of
14:57 Dragging that out like that
14:59 That was so horrifying
15:01 Y'all just trying to be gratuitous right now
15:03 This is ridiculous
15:05 I just don't appreciate that
15:07 I don't appreciate that
15:09 I mean yeah I understand y'all trying to make it dramatic
15:11 But like this is a main character
15:13 Like we got feelings for him
15:15 And you don't like have him die a disgraceful death
15:17 Like that and then drag himself along the floor
15:19 Like what's the purpose of that
15:21 Yeah um
15:23 I wanted to call out two people
15:25 One in Monica Mitchell
15:27 They're the writers of this particular episode
15:29 And I'm not sure how many other episodes
15:31 They've done for Power
15:33 But they should have did their Power homework
15:35 Um
15:37 But going back to the Julio death
15:39 I mean the only thing that seems
15:41 The only thing that was good about the Julio death
15:43 Was definitely
15:45 The special effects
15:47 Of the blood and all of that stuff
15:49 And the acting
15:51 Um
15:53 Ugh
15:55 Man I'm really shocked that they gave
15:57 I mean he just had a sex scene last episode
15:59 I mean
16:01 It's just disrespectful
16:03 Gary who is it Gary who?
16:05 Gary Lennon and Monica who?
16:07 Monica Mitchell she's the staff writer
16:09 I'm saying like it's just disrespectful
16:11 Y'all disrespecting yourselves
16:13 Like when Beyonce says to Jay when you diss me
16:15 You diss yourself
16:17 Like when you did that to Julio
16:19 You disrespected yourself
16:21 Because you don't do that to a main character
16:23 Like there's no reason why
16:25 Okay he had a fight scene
16:27 Okay he had to die but did you have to have him
16:29 Drag himself along the floor
16:31 Like that? Like you reserve that
16:33 For villains you don't reserve that
16:35 For people who
16:37 Have been honorable
16:39 Like that was just disgusting
16:41 I'm just so mad right now
16:43 In defense of them
16:45 Here's another question
16:47 Why didn't they just shoot him?
16:49 You know they wanted to go hand to hand
16:51 I understand that but I'm not talking
16:53 About the hand to hand fighting either
16:55 I'm talking about the last 5 seconds
16:57 Of watching him drag himself
16:59 On the floor. Why?
17:01 Why? Why did we have to watch him
17:03 Drag himself? I just don't understand that
17:05 I mean I'm hoping the whole time
17:07 That he turns over and blasts off a shot
17:09 Like something that will restore him
17:11 To honor because he deserves that
17:13 He was not a bad character
17:15 Not a bad character at all
17:17 Y'all suck
17:19 Monica and Gary for that
17:21 You suck for that
17:23 Alright so that was pretty interesting
17:25 It turns out that
17:27 Pitar did not
17:29 Get the okay to kill Milan
17:31 And as I said
17:33 Tommy was bragging about killing Milan
17:35 At the table and they were like
17:37 Oh that's what happened
17:39 Ah
17:41 They thought that Milan was killed
17:43 By a rival gang
17:45 And Tommy was like
17:47 He spoke out loud about it
17:49 Right now luckily Tatiana if you remember
17:51 She was there when the whole situation happened
17:53 And I think she was in
17:55 Or on the
17:57 The whole turn around or whatever
17:59 Maybe she was like
18:01 Telling the truth or whatever but Tommy got to live
18:03 Maybe she's a soothsayer
18:05 I remember she was there but maybe she was
18:07 Like a private lady. No she was there
18:09 Because Tasha held her gunpoint
18:11 Remember
18:13 Right Tasha held her gunpoint but she wasn't there
18:15 Right but nobody got shot because it was all
18:17 Supposed to be, it was all fake
18:19 They all knew they were going to get held up by
18:21 Dre's men. No Tatiana didn't know
18:23 Okay that's true
18:25 Right so she basically
18:27 It's sort of like this woman is I guess a trusted person
18:29 Who can read people or something
18:31 Tatiana Fiata don't remember
18:33 She was the one that worked at the club
18:35 And Ghost couldn't figure out who she was
18:37 And then when he finally did it turned out
18:39 That it was Milan's wife
18:41 So the wife pretty much knew
18:43 You know that
18:45 Pitar had set up Tommy
18:47 Well she basically came there
18:49 To um
18:51 I guess to listen to their testimony
18:53 And to see who she believed
18:55 That's what I got from it. Okay so moving on
18:57 So Ghost has now found out
18:59 That Kanan is alive
19:01 I don't think the reaction he gave
19:03 When he first saw him was enough
19:05 Yeah it was kind of like a
19:07 Oh why is this happening to me
19:09 Right it was more so about
19:11 Like this is
19:13 You know I'm being
19:15 I don't know I just feel like he had this fight with this man
19:17 He didn't even know this guy existed
19:19 And I feel like this is a really weak way
19:21 For him to reappear
19:23 We've been waiting for the moment when
19:25 Ghost finally sees
19:27 That Kanan's alive and we see it
19:29 Under the shroud of a whole
19:31 Another kidnapping thing like how come they just
19:33 Couldn't do it as a separate thing like
19:35 We get to see Kanan you know
19:37 Ghost's face when he finds out Kanan's alive
19:39 But now instead of that we're distracted by the fact that
19:41 Kanan is kidnapped
19:43 You know
19:45 That's how it was supposed to happen the first time
19:47 And then they let him go early
19:49 And then they kidnapped him again
19:51 I know but I just would have liked to have
19:53 Had a moment to kind of like
19:55 Watch the look on
19:57 Ghost's face as he saw that Kanan was actually
19:59 Alive I mean he thought this man was dead
20:01 So now we don't get to even enjoy that
20:03 All we get to do is
20:05 See him being confused
20:07 Because now he's focusing on the fact that
20:09 They got his kid and how did this happen
20:11 I don't think Gary or Monica watched
20:13 The past episodes
20:15 Well enough. Damn it Gary and Monica are you two new?
20:17 Are you new? Well Monica's a staff writer
20:19 So she might be an intern I don't know
20:21 Maybe she new. I don't know I'm looking up her
20:23 Credits and I don't see anything else
20:25 We need to look up credits right now
20:27 Courtney should have looked at them damn credits. Courtney
20:29 They messing up
20:31 They messing up. Alright I don't know if you're
20:33 Ready to talk now. I'm ready to talk
20:35 Okay. This
20:37 Kanan jacking Ghost
20:39 For a ride is stupid
20:41 And I'm going to tell you why. Tell me
20:43 Ghost just got out of
20:45 Prison for killing a fed
20:47 If you
20:49 Going to kidnap Ghost with the
20:51 Feds. Wouldn't the feds. Don't
20:53 You think the feds would be watching him
20:55 Every step of the way
20:57 Right
20:59 Like
21:01 You couldn't have put a note on the door like
21:03 Hey I got your kid
21:05 Do this do that
21:07 Like you're not
21:09 This is just dumb
21:11 Right. This is actually
21:13 Dumber than Kanan
21:15 Robbing stealing
21:17 TV's out of people's houses and fencing them
21:19 Right
21:21 This is on a whole new level
21:23 Of dumb and I'm really trying to understand
21:25 How he got so bad
21:27 In just one episode. Right
21:29 Because Gary and freaking Monica
21:31 The newbies
21:33 We gotta wait. We don't have time to look you two up
21:35 But listen. Y'all effing up
21:37 Okay. You're effing it up
21:39 I don't understand
21:41 What's happening here. This is a really
21:43 Strong show and you guys
21:45 Are blowing it. This doesn't make any sense
21:47 Of course the feds would absolutely
21:49 Be watching him
21:51 I mean yeah. He had paparazzi
21:53 Waiting in front of the place when he
21:55 Opened up the damn club. Yeah
21:57 Why wouldn't he have cops on him at least for the next couple of days
21:59 Right. Right. Okay
22:01 Legitimately
22:03 He did get away. The judge
22:05 Maybe they're laying low because the judge
22:07 Kind of scolded them
22:09 Still. Police are just gonna pull him over
22:11 I mean. Yeah. You know police
22:13 Nah. It just seems like they would be a little bit
22:15 I know. Like he was the way for
22:17 Like killing somebody. It just seems like he's
22:19 Just a little bit too free right now
22:21 This is bad
22:23 Yeah. And then like
22:25 It doesn't make sense that he would be
22:27 Wanting to collect money from this dude right after he got out of the jail
22:29 Like they know his club's been closed
22:31 No no hold on
22:33 But like Kanan said that ain't his problem
22:35 But I'm just like what Ghost should know is
22:37 Kanan don't care about your money issues
22:39 Get your money
22:41 The other thing I didn't like was the fact that Kanan
22:43 Mashed Ghost's head
22:45 Into the damn dashboard
22:47 Right. I'm like this is a man
22:49 Who just killed Charlie Murphy
22:51 Right. And
22:53 You know didn't blink a heartbeat
22:55 In doing it. He broke a man's hand in jail
22:57 So now you got it
22:59 Kanan got him gunpoint
23:01 But I don't know if
23:03 I don't know. He seemed too soft in this
23:05 Like he's still
23:07 Playing the role of businessman in prison
23:09 Right right right. Like he need to be
23:11 Well maybe because he got his son
23:13 I don't know. Basically we're not
23:15 Happy. This is not feeling right
23:17 We may not be able to put our finger on it
23:19 Gary Monica but it ain't feeling
23:21 Right. And we got credentials
23:23 We've been watching the show
23:25 And we've been appreciating what's been happening
23:27 With the show. But this episode we are not appreciating
23:29 So
23:31 What are we doing Gary and Monica
23:33 Are we trying to have the bloodiest episode
23:35 Ever? Is that the goal here?
23:37 Just to have all the blood
23:39 And gore that we can gain in
23:41 Like two freaking episodes
23:43 I mean why in the hell
23:45 Is Tommy going crazy batting this
23:47 Dude down. Okay fine
23:49 I appreciate the fact that yeah yeah yeah
23:51 Okay yeah he's mentally challenged now
23:53 Because he killed Holly and he's all jacked up
23:55 But Jesus Christ y'all just going
23:57 Crazy with the blood. It's like
23:59 Y'all got a discount on blood capsules
24:01 Like did they send you guys
24:03 An extra barrel of blood to use and you just
24:05 Needed to use it up in one episode
24:07 Come on!
24:09 My issue is how did Tommy know
24:11 Where Holly lived? I mean maybe
24:13 They talked about it but I mean
24:15 That just seemed creepy to just
24:17 Pull up to your girls
24:19 House and find her uncle and kill him
24:21 Right but was that her house or
24:23 Was that just his job because he's a realtor
24:25 I don't know but it just seemed
24:27 Weird and out of the blue
24:29 Yeah I mean maybe
24:31 Yeah I mean why? Like just come on
24:33 He's driving back just let him drive back to New York City
24:35 Without having a stopover in Cleveland
24:37 Read the materials people
24:41 I just don't understand why
24:43 Y'all just trying to stretch it out. What's happening?
24:45 I'm getting a headache
24:47 Alright
24:53 So at the end of all of this
24:55 Kanan kills Jukebox
24:57 And Tariq is reunited
25:01 With his father
25:03 Monica
25:05 Monica
25:09 And Jeff
25:11 Jeff?
25:13 It's Gary
25:15 You guys redeemed yourself on that scene
25:17 I actually my heart was palpitating
25:19 Probably because I'm a mother
25:21 And I saw that damn gun to that boy's head
25:23 How'd you feel?
25:25 It was bullshit
25:27 Oh so you weren't palpitating?
25:29 Your heart wasn't beating hard?
25:31 No. Okay so that was
25:33 Maybe just the female
25:35 Me just caring about the boy
25:37 Alright
25:39 Who told them to write
25:41 A ghost
25:43 And Kanan bonding moment
25:45 In the car
25:47 Like I taught you everything
25:49 And you used it against me to put me in jail
25:51 And then ghost is like
25:53 But I loved you like a brother
25:55 I mean really
25:57 This dude put you in jail for 10 years
25:59 Ghost been in jail for what?
26:01 A week?
26:03 He put him in jail
26:05 He put Kanan in jail for 10 years
26:07 They set him up
26:09 You lost 10 years of your life
26:11 Over
26:13 Okay fine he explained it
26:15 Like yo you ain't wanna roll my plan
26:17 And then they had the bonding moment
26:19 When they were doing the heist
26:21 Right
26:23 Just like old times
26:25 I know they looked at each other in the eye
26:27 Like look at us we flowing we doing it
26:29 Right like back in the days
26:31 I'm sorry
26:33 This dude has been waiting
26:35 First of all this dude has been waiting for 10 years to kill you
26:37 Then you burned him up
26:39 Right
26:41 And then you got the nerve
26:43 To have a bonding moment
26:45 He killed his cousin
26:47 So now he not only did he kill his son
26:49 Cause his son was weak
26:51 He killed his cousin
26:53 Who was a cop
26:55 Like so a DC cop gets found
26:57 In a house in Queens
26:59 Somewhere
27:01 No one's gonna come looking
27:05 Alright fine
27:07 You know at the end of the day
27:09 I'm just like
27:11 You killed Jukebox
27:13 Jukebox was a great character
27:15 Yeah but come on
27:17 What choice did he have
27:19 She was crazy
27:21 She was gonna kill Tariq
27:23 She was heartless
27:25 Yeah but you could have done something else with her
27:27 I mean just
27:29 Maybe Tariq would have knocked her out
27:31 Got some heart or something like that
27:33 I mean
27:35 Okay let's talk about alternative endings here
27:37 Maybe we should say that for something else
27:39 I just want to talk about the disappointment
27:41 Of this episode
27:43 This episode sucked
27:45 This is the worst episode of Power ever
27:47 And Power has never had a bad episode
27:49 Yeah that's true
27:51 You've never seen mediocrity
27:53 Like this
27:55 Unless you've watched Empire
27:57 Yeah I can't even
27:59 I can't even really
28:01 Comment
28:03 I don't know what they're trying to rush through it
28:05 They didn't begin with the end in mind
28:07 They didn't know how they wanted to end this
28:09 It just seems to me that they were just throwing all of this stuff together
28:11 To kind of get through it
28:13 So that they can get to the next storyline
28:15 I know Mrs. Rose wasn't available
28:17 To do all of the shoot
28:19 But now that you know that
28:21 Come up with something better
28:23 No they know that from the beginning
28:25 Let me tell you something
28:27 This is the show
28:29 That Ghost hired security for
28:31 And then all of a sudden
28:33 They turned around and was like
28:35 Yo we own you
28:37 I'm Milan
28:39 Do you remember when that happened?
28:41 How you felt like
28:43 Oh my god this is hot
28:45 I didn't feel that at all
28:47 With this kidnapping
28:49 What I expected from the kidnapping was going to be like
28:51 You know he could have put
28:53 Kanan should have put a note on the dudes car like
28:55 Yo I got your kid
28:57 And then like left clues
28:59 Like yo get the money meet me here
29:01 Meet me here
29:03 This should have never been a bonding moment
29:05 Tyree should have died
29:07 Oh my god what a horrible thing to say he's a kid
29:09 It's what happens
29:11 If you look up the A.Z. Porter
29:13 The Rich Porter story his brother died
29:15 Like not saying that death is a great thing
29:17 Or whatever
29:19 But it's what happens when you're in this game
29:21 So
29:23 For me
29:25 Happily ever after
29:27 Ghost gets to hug his son
29:29 And his biggest enemy
29:31 Walks off like
29:33 See you around little nigga
29:35 It's just whack
29:37 Yeah that was whack
29:39 Honestly I don't think they could have
29:41 This show is not hard enough to have killed a kid
29:43 I don't think I would have liked that at all
29:45 But
29:47 So they kind of painted themselves in a corner
29:49 Like what are you going to do about this situation
29:51 You set it up and now you don't know how to
29:53 You know
29:55 Tie it up you don't know how to stitch it up
29:57 Maybe they could have kidnapped Tasha
29:59 Well it was the son vs the son
30:03 And his son
30:05 What I really wanted to see happen
30:07 Tell me that's what I said let's talk about some alternative endings
30:09 What I would like to have seen happen
30:11 Was
30:15 Kanan giving the gun to Tyree
30:17 And basically saying
30:19 Yo either you gonna kill your son
30:21 Or we gonna kill you
30:23 Like basically making the son
30:25 Shoot Ghost
30:27 Cause Tyree already had a big chip on his shoulder
30:29 About the whole
30:33 You know ghost thing or whatever
30:35 He left us or whatever
30:37 So I would have liked to have seen Tyree draw the gun on his father
30:39 Or maybe Jukebox forcing Tyree
30:41 To pull the gun on his father
30:43 And then for him to like realize that
30:45 These people weren't who they said they was
30:47 And that he was being set up all of that time
30:49 And that
30:51 He came to an understanding
30:53 Cause I think that's still a problem
30:55 They poisoned this child's mind
30:57 And now he's still corrupted
30:59 And poisoned
31:01 That moment would have at least reconciled him
31:03 So that he could have
31:05 Had a relationship with his father
31:07 He would have come to an understanding
31:09 An awakening
31:11 Y'all would have left us
31:13 I don't see how y'all couldn't have seen
31:15 Something as simple as what I just proposed
31:17 Happen
31:19 Damn it you gonna be alright on the show
31:21 You know what Monica and Jason
31:23 Gary
31:25 Monica and Gary
31:27 You guys are fired
31:29 You're hired
31:31 I tell you
31:33 You need to get this man on your staff Courtney
31:35 Cause he gonna make sure you don't got no holes
31:37 Okay
31:39 That was a huge hole
31:41 He gonna make sure you ain't got no glaring discrepancies
31:43 And inconsistencies
31:45 Okay
31:47 And it's obvious that there was a sale on blood
31:49 There was a sale on blood
31:51 Anyway
31:53 Till next time
31:55 We'll see you guys later
31:57 We gonna do extra credit this week we didn't do it last week
