Another good episode..intriguing to say the least!!

************SPOILERS**************

-Jamal helping to get Freda out of jail was touching. Seeing Freda so badly beat up was so sad and I really felt sorry for her. It was quite a twist to the story to find out someone had her beat up so she could get a chance to get out....Lucious, Lucious, SMH

-Cookie and her date. It seems Cookie is finding out that she may not quite fit into Angelo's world. I admire the fact that Cookie is true to herself and doesn't pretend otherwise. I loved the opera singer/song and was impressed Cookie incorporated an opera song into Tiana's music. That was brilliant. It will be interesting to see how their dating goes.

-The flash-backs are very interesting in telling us about Cookie and Lucious's past. It seems like there is so much about Cookie's past that will surprise us. Did she really grow up in the ghetto? Doesn't seem like it to me.

-Andre, is my best character this season so far. His storyline is building up steadily and it is interesting to watch his journey. I like the connection with Nessa and it is hard right now to figure out if Andre has his own agenda or is happy working with Lucious. I will wager that Andre has his own agenda and a lot of anger to unleash.

-Looks like a major war is about to break out and Andre and Lucious are right at the front of it. I hope they take down Nessa's brother Shyne. The guy is evil.

I really enjoyed this episode. Too bad we have to wait 3 weeks for it to resume.
