'Empire' Season 2 Episode 14 Spoilers: Lucious Exposes Hakeem's Incompetency; Anika Drops The Big Reveal
Things are about to get even more intense as the second season of Fox's hit drama TV series "Empire" continues this week with a brand new episode that will see Lucious stepping up against his son, Hakeem, who is now the new CEO of his company. Meanwhile, Anika shocks the whole family with her revelation.
With Camilla already out of the picture, Lucious' youngest son decides to fully step up as Empire's new head. However, assuming full responsibility of such a big company won't be an easy thing for the artist.
As shown in the promo clip for the episode titled "Time Shall Unfold," Hakeem will suffer his father's vicious moves against him during a public Empire Entertainment affair.
"Over here, Mr. CEO," Lucious stands to ask the man standing on stage.
"Nah, you can't take over this meeting," the young man, who seems to be irritated, replied.
But his old man pushes through to say that, "I'm just asking a question any competent CEO could answer."
Fans know too well the lengths Lucious had gone to ensure that his company is intact and running. He's been the captain of the ship until his son, who seems to know next to nothing about the corporate game, took over the wheel.
In another development, one of Hakeem's fears finally materializes right in front of his family's eyes when Anika declared to everyone that she's pregnant.
"So?" Cookie quipped.
"It's Hakeem's," she said, capturing the attention of the entire Lyon clan. The matriarch is the one who reacted rather violently with the news.
Also shown in the clip is Jamal collaborating with Freda Gatz. Cookie will eventually learn that the young and talented rapper turns out to be the daughter of Frank Gathers. It would be interesting to find out how Freda will react if she also discover that her father got killed by Lucious.
Find out how these events unfold when "Empire" Season 2 airs this Wednesday, Apr. 20 on Fox.
