Power Book II: Ghost Season 4 Episode 7: Dirty Diana Dares to Do Wicked Deeds… and More

I won’t hold you to it, but “Power Book II: Ghost” is frustrating me. We’re three episodes away from the series finale — not the season finale, but — and as a substitute of solving problems and taking Aaliyah’s (RIP) advice in regards to the need for an answer, our most important characters are finding trouble to get themselves into.

Hey Panama, what are you talking about?

I’m glad you asked.

So dirty cop Det. Lewis (who’s Felicia on this episode; I’ll be switching back and forth) beats up Diana on the road in New York, causing Diana to lose her baby. Of course, Diana wants revenge. This is similar Diana, remember, who spent the higher a part of several seasons telling us she wanted NOTHING to do with the sport. It is smart for her life; the life Monet forced upon her family cost her father, brother/cousin, friends, and sanity. Diana wanted to go to Spelman; as a substitute, she got stuck in Stansfield and got pregnant with Tariq St. Patrick, who literally jumped out of the frying pan. But the cop hurt her, so she wants revenge. Except Diana sucks at hardcore life; as a substitute of shooting Felicia like she must have done outright, she had to do this thing where you explain to the person you are going to kill why they are going to die. So as a substitute of shooting her, Diana gets right into a fight with Felicia and then hits Felicia in the pinnacle multiple times with a cast-iron skillet.

Task completed. New problems arose.

Of course, as you may imagine, the entire episode is in regards to the Tejada family and Tariq trying to kill this cop who’s involved in Detective Carter’s task force. Yo, Detective Carter is literally the worst boss ever. So he ropes in a few of his guys to let drug dealers sell drugs and then kill other guys. But also, Detective Carter kills Congressman Rashad Tate’s brother, Detective Kamal Tate, and then blames the murder on individuals who couldn’t have done it, causing just a little little bit of friction in his own camp.

Yo, let this be a lesson to anyone who has to work their way up through a pyramid scheme; the home of cards all the time collapses, which is clearly what’s going to occur here. I actually have little question that Detective Carter will likely be killed by someone, I just do not know who will do the killing.

By the time I get to Dru Tejada, I can already see the top in sight. Felicia (Detective Lewis), who sent Diana to kill Zion within the last episode, got a recording (so silly) of Tariq and Brayden killing him. Diana after all blamed Tariq for the murder so Diana would not have to. Anyway, because it happened in a police secure house, Detective Lewis has the entire thing on camera. Detective Carter didn’t know she blamed Diana OR that she stomped on her, so he’s rightfully pissed. Oh well, he sees the recording and keeps it. I think this little plot device will come back to bite Tariq and Brayden within the ass eventually. I think Tariq will kill Detective Carter, but not before the recording results in the hands of the police, sending Tariq to prison for all times. Although on this twisted world let’s fast forward and see that Councilman Tate is now president and finds out that Carter killed his brother (Tariq) and pardons Tariq who then opens a series of automotive dealerships in upstate New York, but I’m getting just a little ahead of myself.

Monet is a large number. Blah blah blah. Let’s speak about Dru Tejada. When this show began, Dru was an excellent kid from a foul family who, despite wanting to join the family business, really wanted to be an artist and love his different faces. In the course of who, Monet turned Dru right into a future franchise assassin. Seriously, forget Jason Bourne and Jack Reacher, we’d like a Dru Tejada franchise where he’s an antihero who kills drug dealers in an attempt to defeat the demons his mother has fed him since he was a baby. Dru is here, killing people in prison like a professional. He’s also doing it so tactically – Dru definitely has a future within the mercenary game if he makes it out alive. In fact, Dru and Cane could do a buddy-murder movie and spend the identical period of time fighting one another. I’m just saying that to me, it’s crazy how Dru Tejada’s character arc is. Everyone else is just about the identical as they were at the start of the show, just in numerous situations. Dru is the just one who has transformed into the version of herself she least wanted to be. I hate that about him, but could we get a Dru spin-off? Probably not.

Effie is finally going to Stanford, if she doesn’t die first. Hurray, success story…possibly.

We’ve got three episodes left, we’d like to start eliminating the vital bodies ASAP – NOT ALL of them will make it to the top alive.
