Jamal is performing in this photo from "Without a Country." But what's going on, exactly? We'll find out. He's got the world on a string running Empire and with a successful music career of his own now. Does he miss Hakeem and Cookie?
Michael is posing in the kitchen. He's back, but will it be smooth sailing between him and Jamal as Empire Season 2 progresses? All he's wanted is for Mal to accept who they are as a couple, so signs point to yes.
It's just ludicrous that Chris "Ludicris" Bridges is guest starring on Empire as Officer McKnight and keeping a watchful eye over Lucious in prison. Say what?! Chances are he's not going to be busting out a rap in this one.
Lucious is in the yard at prison. He may have fallen from grace, but how long do you really think he'll be on the downside of fate? Lucious Lyon always finds a way, right?
It's only natural that Andre would want a claim to the company, but Jamal is probably playing coy at this stage about his plans, but will Rhonda try to lay down the law? Yes, but she'll be quickly ushered to the side.
Anike sure looks happy. Is she still hitting bone town with her former son in law? Probably, but Cookie would love to "Bye Felicia," her again and smack her down. Will she have a reason to in the premiere?
Is Lucious acting like a jukebox? It sure looks that way. The inmates must get pretty bored, so playing some live shows on the inside will be sure to keep his head in the game for when he inevitably gets out.
Is Lucious popular in prison, or do his fellow inmates not take too kindly to famous people? Well, we don't want them getting on the wrong side of him, so hopefully they're all team Lucious!
Cookie and Andre take a break from scheming and chat about all things New York. Did he come clean about Rhonda turning into a killer? Probably not quite yet, but we want that out in the open soon!
