Nooooo not Monet!
After shattering Starz records for all-time viewership high, Power Book II: Ghost devastated fans with the shocking death of Monet Tejada who sacrificed herself to save her son Cane in a heartbreaking moment that shattered the whole entire Powerverse.
In a classic scene that belongs in the Power Hall of Fame, Monet goes full Mary J. BLAM on Noma and her army that eventually takes her out in a moment of redemption that almost makes you forget how terrible of a mother she was before Season 4.

While many celebrated Monet going out like a G, others focused their attention on ‘apex predator’ Tariq who failed to take out Carter as planned and allowed Noma to be alerted about their plan to take her out at her wedding.
Tariq called himself the Apex Predator & did all that hollering talkin bout “I’m Tariq fckin St Patrick” just to get his gun took & put in handcuffs. You had ONE job. #PowerGhost pic.twitter.com/AY0coycI2a

At this point, it’s clear Tariq is no Ghost despite his insistence that he’s better (and smarter) than his father who definitely would’ve taken out Carter to keep the plan in motion.
Tariq keeps saying he’s better than his father but at every turn he proves himself wrong. Ghost would’ve put 2 in the booth and 1 more just for luck. You ain’t yo daddy’s son #PowerGhost

With only 1 episode left, we can’t wait to see how they conclude the series with multiple unresolved storylines including Tariq’s kidnapping of Carter, the Tejada kids vying for revenge against Noma, and Effie potentially making it to Stanford.

Whew, we’re ready!
