What happened in the previous episode

The seventh episode, christened as “Lines in the Sand,” took a major blow in the direction of the storyline in Season 3. It brought forth the broken ties, the heated disputes, and the fallout from the pivotal choices of Tommy Egan and the rest of the cast.

This episode presents the mix of strategic and personal decisions, which had instant and long-lasting impacts on the power relations in the underworld of Chicago.

Tension was at its peak by the end of Episode 7, setting the stage for Episode 8. The audience witnessed major shifts that left some storylines unresolved, heightening the stakes for how the characters will respond to these pressures in the next episode.

The story arc from Episode 7 makes Episode 8 a critical moment in Power Book IV: Force Season 3.


What to expect from this episode

The title of Episode 8, “Build Back Better,” may seem to imply a focus on the events that takes place after the last episode. It points towards the repositioning and regrouping of the characters as the main theme. Characters involved may try to mend their relationships, get back their dominance, or even prevent future conflicts.

As the season nears its end, the episode will probably intensify the existing battles and prepare the ground for the penultimate and climax episodes. Viewers may get to witness the rise in critical choices and stakes.
