We’re more than halfway through the third season of Power and things are heating up in this week’s episode “The Right Decision.’ In fact, hard decisions must be made and Tommy (Joseph Sikora) and Ghost (Omari Hardwick) reunited, must make them. The first is taking out Lobos (Enrique Murciano) who has become their common enemy. While Ghost and Tommy are scheming, with a little help from Sandoval’s (David Fumero) guy who doesn’t know Tommy has switched sides, they plot to hijack the prison transport and get Lobos.
The Feds, meanwhile are patting themselves on the back that Lobos has been caught, captured and so they think, turned. Ha! Angela (Lela Loren) is happy to be rid of the case, thinking that she and Jamie can somehow put all the drama behind and live a happy life. This woman needs a hard, cold drink of reality, doesn’t she?
Once Lobos is in the prison transport van with Greg (Andy Bean) it’s going so well at first that Lobos does a little flirting, throwing his leg over Greg’s. Lobos is a funny guy. But of course, despite multiple Feds watching from the office and an escort, the transport is hijacked and Lobos is freed. But not by the folks he’s expecting as he’s swiftly captured by Tommy and Ghost. They take out everyone else in the now-aborted transport, except Greg, who takes two to the chest but is fortunately wearing a vest.
Although Ghost and Tommy fumble through the Lobos murder, (which adds a note of realism since you can imagine that drug-related murders might not always go as planned) Sandoval distracts them by calling Lobos, though Back at the hotel, Ghost shows up cool AF, but after today’s murder, he’s got even more problems. Tasha has found the separation papers. Though she has some words with him, she’s already signed the papers. Good thing, because Ghost reminds her that if he should go down, so will she. He’s right, but when he tries to climb into bed with Tasha (the nerve of this dude) she lets him know that even just sleeping next to her ain’t happening, cap’n.
There’s this little thing called Karma that always seems to catch up to Ghost when he least expects it. And here it is. Milan forgives him for the murder of his colleagues but there’s the matter of the product Ghost owes them. Well, without a supplier, how’s he supposed to recoup? Guess he’s got a new boss. Tommy isn’t too thrilled about this, especially since Dean/Milan’s security access means he’s got all the goods on Ghost and everyone he knows.
