SPOILER ALERT: This post contains pictures from Empire Season 3, Episode 18 “Toil and Trouble Part 2” as well as a bit of a recap from the first part of the season finale. If you haven’t already watched Episode 17, I suggest you walk away now and go do that (or skip the next paragraph and just gaze longingly at those gorgeous spoiler pics). Last chance!
What Happened on Toil and Trouble Part 1?
So, wow, last week on Empire. Crazy, right? That ending? Can you believe they made us wait another week to find out what happens next? Can you believe that Leah killed Tariq the way she did? Brutal! Hollywood Reporter did a pretty cool interview with Ilene Chaiken about that epically crazy scene. It’s a good read if you want to understand more about the motivation behind Leah’s shocking act. Although to be honest, I can’t say I’m surprised that Leah is capable of murder.
Of course, a lot of other HUGE things went down last week on Empire! Thirsty got fired, Jamal essentially picked his father over his mom, and Lucious actually stood up for Cookie a bit. The season finale is going to be insane! Let’s check out those pics!

I have watched Empire since the early days and I can’t believe how juicy last episode was. I knew something juicy was going to happen but I didn’t expect that murder! x
I didn’t have a chance to watch this show. I only saw a few episodes but not from the start. It’s on my to do list after I finish with Orange is the New Black.
That sounds so exciting. It’s definitely more exciting to watch shows when there are twists and events like this.
