Then he and Diana have a close moment, but Monet loudly and hilariously interrupts them, and I love her a whole lot. So that’s exactly what Tariq does, and it seems to mollify the queenpin she gives him the drugs she’s dressed up in fancy bags, and orders him to sell them. “Just act normal, don’t say nothing,” Cane advises. ‘Riq says to shut up and trust him, but even he is spooked when Monet texts and wants him to come over for dinner. An upset Lauren goes to see Tariq and they wind up kissing, but he’s called away when Cane wants reassurance that Ramirez’s weapon will throw the police off their scent. The detective thinks the GTG pool murder and this one are related, and he suspects she may be involved. WHAT’S MECCA UP TO? | Eventually, the cops find Jabari’s body, and Ramirez’s gun, and a detective who has a history with Carrie ambushes her into IDing his corpse. When they all eventually go on the hunting trip, Sweeney takes a shot that just misses Tariq’s head (!) and Tariq (understandably) Is. When he learns out Tariq is Ghost’s kid, Sweeney brings up “ugly rumors” about his drug operation without missing a beat, Tariq raises the question of the opioid epidemic in Appalachia and asks, “So how much money are you taking from Big Pharma, Congressman Sweeney?” “Now… he’s going to take out the other?”Īctually, now he’s going to attend a hunting weekend with Brayden’s family, an event that redefines the term “d–che canoe.” One of the honored guests is Congressman Sweeney ( Gilmore Girls‘ Scott Cohen), who attended Stansfield with Brayden’s dad and who is an absolute, racist jerk to Tariq upon meeting him. Saxe, who’s actually going to do the legwork, is less excited. (Side note: This may have been my favorite scene in the entire premiere.) MacLean eagerly accepts the job, thinking about the cash it’ll bring in. Tariq’s call happens to come just before MacLean takes his new law partner, Cooper Saxe, on a shopping trip in preparation for a makeover. | Worried about Yaz and wanting to talk with his mom, Tariq calls Davis MacLean and asks for help finding Tasha - whom, you’ll recall, is in the Witness Protection Program somewhere and is, by design, incommunicado. Power-book-ii-ghost-premiere-recap-season-2-episode-1 Elsewhere, Cane makes friends with a high-powered connect named Mecca ( Rescue Me‘s Daniel Sunjata), but we’ll have more on that in a minute. And Dru is mad at his mom for her role in his getting shot last season, but I get it: His injured arm and hand are so messed up, he can’t even draw, and that is a huge bummer.

Monet is on edge, thinking that she’s going to be the target of retribution for killing Rico.

Meanwhile, things at Casa Tejada are tense. I know I should be more taken aback by the flames issuing from the stovetop, but MAN Yaz isn’t a baby anymore, is she? Anyway, Tariq puts out the fire and soothes Yaz, who tells him that Estelle’s drinking is getting worse. His morning freak-out is interrupted by Yaz yelling from other room when he runs out to see what’s up, we learn that he’s staying at Estelle’s, and there’s a fire in the kitchen. MONET’S NEW STRATEGY: BASKETBALL FTW! | When Tariq wakes from a nightmare about killing Jabari Reynolds, he immediately deletes the professor’s text from his burner. Up is down and right is left and MacLean is giving Saxe a glow-up? Read on for the highlights of “Free Will Is Never Free.”
