Ever since Milan introduced himself to Ghost he's been quite busy with eliminating anyone who is feels is a threat to his business. On the previous episode of 'Power' he showed up at Tasha's home unannounced for dinner basically to remind Ghost that if he doesn't comply to his demands his family is good as dead. This week he showed up at Lakeisha's beauty salon unannounced thinking Tasha was alone. While Lakeisha was eavesdropping she accidentally knocked down some items on the floor which caught Milan's attention. Tasha tried to come up with a story for Milan's sudden visit but Lakeisha already knew what time it was. She wanted Tasha to get out but Tasha pleaded with her to stay. Tasha tried to pay her bestie off with hush money but unfortunately, she didn't get a chance to enjoy it thanks to Tommy who reacted on Milan's orders.
During a meeting with all the big time drug dealers Tommy introduced a new product to sell and they weren't happy with the fact that they had to pay their money up front. Most of them objected to the new order but when the Mr. Woo was stabbed to death by one of Milan's men, after he called Tommy out on killing his son, there were no other objections.
Angela who claims to no longer want to have anything to do with Jamie, showed up at Tasha's looking for information on Tommy's whereabouts when Lobos got shot. Tasha told her that Tommy was with his mother. Of course, Angela went to visit Tommy's mother and she confirmed his fake alibi. She then ran to Greg to show him video footage of Ghost being with Tasha during the murder. Later on she and Greg had an intimate session. Getting Angela in bed was apart of Greg's plan to bring Angela and Ghost down at the same time.

When it was all said and done Ghost was so busy trying to keep up with the new changes that he forgot about his son, Tariq. Dre who was told to look after Tariq took him to the gym to play basketball where Kanan just showed up out of the blue. He took over Dre's responsibility to become closer to Tariq. His plan was to kill his nephew but when he said he hated his dad that was music to Kanan's ears. Meanwhile Ghost found out the one man he thought he could trust was working with Milan behind his back.
So what now? Ghost has no one left but Tasha. Hopefully, he tells her about Tommy so she can stop confiding in him about Ghost. That's all he needs is for his wife to turn against him. Is Lakeisha really dead? How far will Angela go to save herself or will she go the extra mile to save Ghost. Angela is in too deep there's no escape now!
Stay tuned for the final two episodes of 'Power' on Starz Sunday night.
