Last week, “Empire” fans were let down when their show did not air, with the World Series coming on, instead. After a series of questionable stories, “Empire” gained its footing during the last episode. An episode of forgiveness, “Empire” left on a cliffhanger.
Following Andre’s (Trai Byers) baptism, Hakeem (Bryshere “Yazz” Gray) was kidnapped. From the look of the previews, Lucious (Terrence Howard) and the gang were ready to do whatever it takes to get him back. Jamal (Jussie Smollett) was especially disappointed.
Good things come to those who wait and “Empire” fans have waited two weeks. Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) and Lucious are on the warpath until they get their baby boy back home. With the next episode airing tomorrow night, Hip Hop Vibe has compiled a list of spoilers for the next episode.
