It was a major hit on the Saints in the previous episode of 'Snowfall' Season 5. Episode 6 will almost certainly focus on the search for Damson Idris' Franklin Saint who escapes with Gustavo only to find himself caged next to a tiger in the final minutes of 'The Lliad: Part 1'. The promo for the second part of the episode focuses on the Saints pulling out all stops and figuring out their next moves.

It's pretty clear the Saints are being hunted. If the move was to divide and conquer, then their job was spot on as Franklin's family were all in different corners of the city. Peaches' absence naturally makes him the prime suspect, although, at this point, there can be fingers pointed at Kane Hamilton as well.

The official synopsis of Episode 6, 'The Lliad: Part 2' reads, "Franklin and Gustavo (Sergio Peris-Mencheta look for an escape; Teddy is forced to put his trust in an old friend; the man behind the hits is revealed." The teaser sees a mysterious white man antagonize Franklin and Gustavo threatening to unleash the tiger even as Cissy (Michael Hyatt) along with Aunt Louie (Angela Lewis) and Uncle Jerome (Amin Joseph) search for their nephew. It also shows a stressed Veronique.

Fans were equally eager to see the events that unfold next. "I cannot wait until snowfall come on this week. It was sooo much going on and I need to know who put a hit out on Franklin’s family! #Snowfall #SnowfallFX," one of the tweets read. "been rewatching #SnowFallFX to make sure i ain’t miss nothing & Uncle Jerome been cleaner than the board of health this season," another fan remarked. "The tension and money issies between Saint and his fam (Aunt /Uncle) is making me very nervous.
