Power Book II Season 3 Episode 5: Release Date, Preview & Spoilers

Power Book II Season 3 Episode 5 is the mid-Season finale, so it’s going to be a banger. You don’t want to miss Episode 5, as you already know, and Power mid-season finales are always good Episodes. So I cannot wait to see what’s going to go down.

It isn’t looking too good for Lorenzo, and based on this trailer, it isn’t looking too good for your boy Brayden. He’s about to get him up. And from the looks of it, he will need Tariq to save him, so we will talk about that in this article.

We know Monet should be getting some, you know, really good information on what happened to her son, Freaky Zeke. Tariq is telling her that he has a very good reliable source, and it doesn’t get any better than this. We know she will be talking to Davis as well, and then she’s going to have that conversation with Lorenzo in this Episode. And I believe he will tell her what he did to Zeke, which will piss her off.

What Will Happen In Power Book II Season 3 Episode 5?

We know Tariq, Brayden, and Effie will be going to Italy, and we know it’s going to be some issues there. And based on this trailer, we can see Tariq and Effie conversing with somebody. They’re not trying to show us who it is, but I’m going to say it’s your girl Noma right now. She finally returns. I told y’all we ain’t even been seeing Noma like this.

We only saw her in the first episode, and it’s looking like she’s going to return in Episode 5. And Tariq is wondering why she is even there in the first place. I’m going to tell you right now, he better be happy she is there because she will be the one that’s most likely going to save him. But regardless of why she’s there, it’s a good thing that she is there. Because she will help him out.

Now, Noma is always keeping tabs on Tariq, so it’s no surprise to me when she’s popping up, and we know she’s all about business. We know she will be telling him “You think you can replace the Mecca” and then she will say “Look, everything will be good as long as you get me my profit”. So we know Noma is always about her money.

Brayden Getting Caught

Now let’s talk about your boy Brayden. We can expect him to slip up once again. And he’s gonna get caught spying or whatever. I believe he’s in the library. We can hear the guy tell him that he caught him spying in his library. So Brayden will be getting held up he will get a beat down.

It’s looking like he’s going to catch a similar beatdown to how Tommy Carter beat down back in their original Power. And I believe they did this on purpose just to kind of show us the parallels between both shows. They like they do this and we’re seeing it once again.

Hopefully, this beatdown gives Brayden the confidence that he needs to catch a body. Because y’all know, they putting that pressure on him. And as I told you guys, I mean, if you’re going to be in the drug game doing what Braden is doing at this level, you gotta know when it’s time to pull that trigger and you cannot hesitate. So we’re going to see where Brayden is gonna be going in the second half of the Season. But I do think that whole beat down to him and getting him up is going to change him a lot.

Noma Saving Tariq And Crew

We know Tariq will be trying to get Brayden back and we can hear these guys telling him “Look, did you got what we want or whatever”. And we know Tariq is telling them, “Well, I need my friend back first”. And this is not going to go well. Tariq and Effie, they’re going to get real close to being up out of here, but guess what? I believe your girl Noma will come and save the day.

Then this black suit white guy holding a guy in this scene in the Power Book II Season 3 Episode 5 Preview; looks like he can be Carlo Baxter’s older brother or twin brother.

But yes, Tariq and Effie will be catching a beatdown. Your girl Noma’s gonna come and save the day. I know this just based on that Episode 5 trailer. As we can see in the Trailer, we know your girl Noma will be coming. She’s gonna pour the strap out, and she’s about to be dropping some bodies.

I’m pretty sure Tariq’s gonna be happy that she showed up and saved him and Effie because we know they were gonna be done for. And I will not be surprised if these guys that she shot up were her enemies anyway. So for her to do this was easy work.

Division Between Effie And Brayden

Now, Cane finding out Effie did Lauren was a smart move to play with people’s minds. I can see that Cane is becoming a master of psychology and how to read between the lines. Something he might have picked from Mecca. Just that this will go wrong for Brayden because Effie will start suspecting Brayden as a weak link and will not trust him again. This could also be the beginning of division among them.

Now, Lauren’s information put Cameras on the rooftop, and Course Perfect will be compromised as I said in my last article. I think they will see Effie and start chasing her for questioning. Maybe that was why she was running from the police here in the Power Book II Season 3 Episode 5 trailer. Now could this give a clue that Lauren is still alive? Because apart from everyone else, it’s Lauren who knows the spot.

So who could call the cop on the spot for Cameras to be installed there? Will Effie assume it could be Brayden who snitched? Just like she thinks he told Cane what happened? Will Effie start antagonizing Brayden to Tariq as the untrustworthy one? Could it be the starting point of Tariq and Brayden fighting? Let me know what you think about this Effie situation.

Jenny Lied To Blanca

Now still on the subject, Jenny lied to Blanca about information Lauren gave her about the rooftop. Blanca will speak to Saxe on that possibly in the form of giving him a compliment about the rooftop tip, and he will be confused because he never said anything to Jenny about the rooftop at Stansfield.

This will make Saxe open a personal investigation on Jenny. Then Trace the number he snapped on her phone, and then discovers Lauren is alive.
