Storylines on Empire that was never mentioned again


Ok I been calculating how many storylines was never explained again.....so far I came up with...

Courtney Love spiked drink from Anika, no one ever figured out or Anika was behind that.

Luscious Lyon "daughter" what happened to her?

Cookie and Hakeem record label "lyon dynasty" its like they just forgot about they had a label.

I still think its crazy that Luscious is the only one that knows about Anika pushing Rhonda but no one else know that she pushed Rhonda.

Rhonda funeral plans.....did the rest of the family forget about her?

reply

I don't consider the first one a dropped story. It's not really important in the grand scheme of things.

The daughter was revealed to not be the biological daughter of Lucious in season 2. She's off living with her mom after her abusive ex-boyfriend was killed.

Lyon Dynasty was folded/absorbed into Empire when Cookie and Hakeem came back. They said so in the show.

4th one might come ot as the season unfolds.

It was weird that no one mentioned Rhonda's funeral. Hell, she's barely been mentioned at all.

1. The Anika spiking the drink was the setup for the fans to see how crazy she was. That was the first glimpse of her being cuckoo, the next glimpse was her sleeping with Hakeem. By the time season 2 she was a FULL on NUT case.
2..Lucious Lyon "daughter" was explained Season 2 episode 14
3. Lyons Dynasty was explained Season 2 episode 12 or 13 ( can't remember right now) They merged the companies when they took company back from Camilla.

4.About Rhonda, just because you think it's crazy that only Lucious knows about Rhonda right now is really you issue. Doesn't really mean it's something wrong with their storyline. Maybe it really does have something to contribute to the storyline and they haven't said right now. That could always come back to bite Anika in the butt. Season 3 JUST started.

5.Rhonda funeral- There was obviously a bit of a time jumped. ( maybe a few weeks later) AND maybe they didn't want to give her a funeral because they knew she was going to still be on the show as a ghost so need to really have a funeral. IMO

@bla: Also, besides Cookie and like two other people, nobody else knows that Luscious killed Bunkie.

Rhonda defending Andre and killing the uncle. Only a few know about that.

Luscious making Hakeem's ex Camille kill herself.

reply

Luscious almost dying from his illness early on on the show. The doctor said they made a mistake and he was fine or something like that but it still doesnt explain him passing out, coughing and everything else up to that put...Did he have the flu up until the exact date he got the good news from the Doc. POOF..cough gone!

Cookie having her sisters guy friend kill a guy who she thought was stalking her when it turns out it was luscious leaving flowers at her door.

The constant reasons why one minute Hakeem hates Jamal or Jamal hates luscious or Andre hates luscious or Jamal hate Hakeem. Or seeing Andre go plum off in the van, walking off after threatening to tear up luscious's van to a couple of scenes later Andre standing right beside luscious in the studio with no make or explanation.

All of Jamals many guy friends.

Also the Freeda thing never made since to me...Her dad was NOT killed by luscious...but by his henceman...and why? Because Cookie called and told luscious he was threatning her life. Never got why Cookie ignores that part in her character.

Ar: Very true. And good points.

Neither Jamal or Lucious was Lola's father. Yes, the rest of the family forgot about Rhonda right after she fell to her death. Nobody talks about it. Only Andre sees her ghost. No, she did not get a funeral. It's ridiculous. I think Lyon Dynasty merged with Empire. Anika spiking Ella's drink was never mentioned again.

Clark's destiny = Superman, LL &LL.
