In Empire Season 3, episode 6, which airs at 9 p.m. EST Wednesday, the Lyon family is dealing with a security breach after Empire Entertainment was hacked. The hackers have taken control of several songs by Empire artists, including Tiana and Jamal. However, a cyber security expert has confirmed the personal information of Empire Extreme subscribers, Lucious’ music streaming service, has not been compromised.
Cookie has especially been affected by the hack, as several nude photos she took for her boyfriend, Angelo, were discovered and shared publicly. In an episode 6 promo, Cookie decides to end her relationship with Angelo because he is running for mayor of New York and she does not want this issue to cost him the election.
Meanwhile, Jamal is working with music producer D-Major once more. The two had a brief fling in Season 2 and are flirting with each other once more. The episode 6 synopsis mentions that Jamal is caught in a love triangle. Considering Jamal has not had any other love interests, we can assume that D-Major, a known playboy, is the one seeing someone else.
D-Major expressed concern over Jamal mixing anxiety medication with alcohol. Jamal has been struggling all season in the aftermath of being shot by Freda Gatz. Andre has also urged him to be careful with mixing his medication with alcohol. However, an episode 6 sneak peek shows him trying to wake an unconscious Jamal.
Will Jamal survive his overdose? We will find out more during episode 6 called “Chimes at Midnight,” which is best viewed on television or live online through Fox Now.
Empire airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Fox.
