'Power Book II: Ghost' Episode 5: Drugged Tariq asks Raina to save a spot in heaven, leaves fans in tears
In the latest episode of 'Power Book II: Ghost', Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr) finds himself in a pickle. Saxe's niece Riley drugs him and a dazed Tariq goes to the cemetery and cries at his father and sister's graves. In an emotional speech, Tariq tells his sister Raina to save him "a spot in heaven", something fans found rather hilarious. Considering that Tariq has killed his father, gotten involved in drug trade, played two girls, let his mother Tasha (Naturie Naughton) take the fall for him in jail, not sure if he is going to heaven but fans were certainly left emotional after the scene.
One fan wrote, "That Raina scene was just cruel. #PowerBook2 #PowerNeverEnds #PowerGhost." Another said, "We learning a lot more about how Tariq processed Raina death now especially after what all has happened #PowerGhost." One more said, "That scene with Tariq at Raina’s gravesite....my goodness. All the tears. #PowerGhost."

Others wondered how in a drugged state, Tariq went home, changed clothes and returned to the cemetery in one piece. "How did Tariq manage to wander home drugged, change clothes and then go to Raina's and Ghost's graves??? #PowerGhost#PowerBook2 #PowerTV," a fan wrote.

"Tariq is supposed to be drugged outta his mind, but he somehow found his way home, got changed into a suit, and managed to SAFELY get to the cemetery to see Ghost and Raina. #PowerBook2 #PowerGhost #PowerTV," another wrote.

There were some who got emotional, while watching Tariq's conversation at Raina's headstone. "Who else started tearing when Tariq said to Raina’s Headstone HappyBirthday to us. #PowerGhost," a fan wrote.

Nevertheless, Saxe records Tariq's confession at the grave, and it's enough for Davis McLean to sell his client out and join hands with Saxe. In the next episode, Tariq might just be going to jail, or well, Saxe or his niece might face their end at his hands... by 'accident'. The next few episodes will return after a lengthy hiatus, the date has not been decided as yet.
'Power Book II: Ghost' airs on StarZ on Sundays at 8pm
