I get the whole different perspective episodes and the concept, but Tasha and Tommy's scene where he pulls the gun on her is totally different than it was the first time around. I don't mind words changing here and there but Tasha was straight on her knees on the floor lol.

Tommy/Ced scene was too. Y'all could've just used playback.

So what's y'all opinions on the ending? Tariq is a b*tch ass character. Dre was a snake but I never disliked him as a character. The Tariq character is written poorly but I can see what they're trying to do. They basically turned him into Ghost 2.0. Same methods to become "Ghost" but with a seriously fukked up path. You can like James' path to becoming Ghost. Tariq's path just makes you ready to see him get shot da fukk up.

So who deserves more credit for how this shyt played out? Tariq, Tate, Tasha, Kanan or Ghost himself?

- Kanan twisted Tariq's mind to even wanna grow up to be "Ghost" and not Tariq St. Patrick
- Like @CHICAGO said, Tate is the 1 that put that BS in Tasha's head about Ghost turning Tariq in that lead to her mentioning it to Ghost and getting that idea in his head which lead to the Breeze questions and the outcome... he also pointed out Tate had 3 other setups in which he sent Ced and son + Dre separately to kill him and lied to the feds about the Terry Silver shyt... when you think about it, he's actually the only suspect to capitalize off Ghost's death :ohhh:
- Tasha is the 1 who supported Tariq's drug ambitions when Ghost didn't which also added to Tariq's dislike of Ghost.. she's also the 1 who didn't want Ghost to leave the drug game dating back to the 1st episode... and speaking of the 1st episode, even though Ghost reconnected with Angela that episode, Tasha was in the back of the car fingering herself for Shawn.... yet Tariq thinks Ghost started the cheatin shyt
- Tariq had it made.. why even wanna rob houses, sip lean and sell drugs with Kanan when you a spoiled rich kid? Dude's TV was inside the wall :mjgrin: He got his sister killed and blamed everything on his dad
- Ghost himself was selfish but savvy.... he was too smart for everyone and his own legal success made everyone envious ready to take him down...... but even when he died, they learned that they wasted their time killing him :yeshrug: Tate is the only 1 to be benefit from him being gone

Tasha wasn't in the will, but Raina was...kinda makes you wonder was she ever in it?

Also, Tasha settin up bul wasn't really her characteristic of her. All throughout the show, from what I've seen, she's always made sure she had an airtight alibi....they all did. Her taking him with her, she would've made sure that they had their story tight...or she at least knew where he was.

Did Ghost really think Tariq was gonna take to Ramona? He didn't fukk with his true love, so why would he fukk with the jumpoff?

Does Tommy still owe part of Truth?

Other than Tariq's POV the finale was trash. It's crazy that in 2 persepctives he was cool, but in 3 others he was extra extra. I also don't see Ghost being that calm when Tariq pulled that strap out. Ghost would've spazzed the fukk out. It wouldve made more sense for Tariq to "accidentally" shoot Ghost or in self defense.

Tariq panick after he did it is actually normal. That being said Michael Rainey is a terrible actor and I have no desire to follow him to book 2.

I agree with everyone saying the Tate episode was really good. A few of these solo eps did remind me of the days when Power was the good kind of ridiculous and I was invested. I don't think they saved the season or anything at all. We're just too far gone down the well of fukkery for that. But the Tommy ep was a fun watch, as was Tate.

The less said about the finale, and really most of the last few seasons the better. If someone told me that Tyler Perry was ghostwriting for CK for the last while i'd be inclined to believe it.

I'm thinking that they can easily write Tasha out of jail...And I mean easily so I think she is only in jail long enough to cultivate a relationship or set up a relationship with someone...I think this is how we are introduced to Mary J Bliges character....She will either be a queen pin or some type of warden or some shyt. (just guessing).

Tates episode was very well acted of course and Tommys was full on fukkery mode.

I don't know but it really seemed like such a slam dunk for the the next part of the series to have ghost survive and get into politics....Just seems like it could of been a simple transition and introduce a new theme to the show and still have Tasha and to a lesser extent Tariq doing street stuff with Tommy doing his thing in LA with the Cartel and introduce Method Man as some type of go between with Tommy and New York.
