As a matter of fact, fans could expect more drama as the upcoming episode 2 of the series delves deeper into the elements of death, violence and love.
Prior to "Empire" season 3 episode 2, many fans were left baffled when the previous episode confirmed the death of Andre's wife, Rhonda, who had an intense altercation with Lucious' wife, Anika, on the balcony of A New York City apartment. But in spite of her demise, actor Jussie Smollett (who plays the role of Jamal Lyon) teased that Rhonda's death may not be truly the end for the character.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Smollett hinted that fans may get to Rhonda more in flashbacks. Speaking of Rhonda, "Empire" season 3 episode 2 will also follow Andre (Trai Byers) as he heads toward a downward spiral (mentally) when his collected demeanor suddenly switches to hysterical and violent, which may lead to his run-in with the authorities in the upcoming episode.
What's more interesting in "Empire" season 3 episode 2 titled, "Sins That Amend," however, is the looming romantic love triangle between feuding exes Lucious (Terrence Howard) and Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) and, a new love interest courtesy of Angelo Dubios (Taye Diggs). According to iDigitalTimes, Lucious will try his best to woo and reconcile with Cookie after his sham marriage to Anika but his ex-ladylove wouldn't give him the time of her day.
Speaking of love interest, the online publication also hinted that Cookie may also be harboring some feelings toward Dubios, who obviously has a crush on her. Aside from love and death, FanSided reported that "Empire" season 3 episode 2 will also follow Jamal as he tries to get back on track following a PTSD experience.
