Yeah, I caught the reference right away, cause I’ve seen the movie back then. They had Ernie Hudson played a mentally challenged breh in that. That movie had some popularity in the early nineties. In Living Color did a parody of the movie.
Erie should have won something for that role, killed it

I've been going to black churches all my life (37 years) and never seen that ish. Hell even some homos and lesbos have come to church and they are still shown love.

I knew Juke's mom was gonna do something foul. I still wonder how did they know? It just seems strange after she gave the pastor's son a chance and don't think she told her mother. Anyways, one thing you can say about the power universe is they know how to make things interesting with the last 3 episodes of a season. .
Juke's mom had it figured out that day Juke's friends/associates ran up her acting surprised about her attire and etc, straight up treating her like a dude :manny:. Facial expressions can tell a story. And giving the fact she was out in LA for all of time im sure she saw some shyt or partook in it herself

Right... it was showing early that Juke's mother was tryin' to convert her into something else, especially that time they ran into Juke's friends. It was obvious right there by the faces she was making that she suspected something.

I guess a few heads in the thread are in denial about this but never underestimate the things "church folks" would do or say when it comes to things they don't approve of. Juke's mom is a born-again Christian... the WORST KIND of church folk :pachaha:

What happened was to the extreme though. Making somebody watch lesbian porn to get them to stop being gay is not what most church folks do.

I thought they deleted a scene and forgot when it came to Juke and her moms. Glad it wasn't just me but a few of y'all pointed out there were subtle hints that her mom coulda thought something was up. Let me find out aint no wasted scenes in Power and you really gotta pay attention.

Raq and the crew have crazy muscle. You see all them dudes on payroll in the projects and Jersey. When Marvin come around you see how nikkas start moving. They could easily pull 2, 3 of em to run security for Raq. She don't roll like that. She keep the joint on her and her name is her name. Not unrealistic. Plus it's a TV show. The more people you have in a scene the more it costs. If she pulling up to the stash, you can assume her security is nearby, but not in the shot.

I'm tired of shytting on this young boy. He seems like a good kid and I'm sure he's trying. But got dam if this wasn't a prequel about his character I would love for them to write him off. If this was a VoiceOver he'd be good money. But this kid on his way to college. He's a sensitive mama's boy. His mama's a Queenpin. But he's a mama's boy nonetheless. They can make this kid OG Kanan but it's gonna look wack. He might even say it in his best 50 Cent voice while kneeling over dead Famous in the rain "Now is the point where IDGAF".
