In the previous episode, Cookie and Angelo made some progress in their relationship, as Lucious and Andre signed Nessa to Empire live music stream by putting a gun to Shine's head.

A promo for the upcoming episode shows Shine and his gang ready for war against the Lyon family. The video voice-over says, "After the World Series, television's number 1 drama returns."

The video shows Andre telling Nessa , "Lucious wants to have a sit down with Shyne," as scene shifts to Shyne and his gang loading up on weapons and declaring, "Lets go kill some Lyons."

Jamal, who is still struggling with PTSD, is seen standing in the empty stage. Lucious tells his son, "You want to help the family, get back on the stage again."

The promo ends with Tariq and his FBI's men raiding Lucious's office. Lucious asks, "Who did this?" Tariq replies, " We are investigating." The one-minute video ends with Shine showing up in Andre's apartment with a gun pointing at the elder Lyon. He says, "Good morning sunshine!"
