Empire season 6 episode 5 return date: ‘Stronger Than My Rival’

Want to get the Empire season 6 episode 5 return date, plus some additional news for what’s coming? Within this article, we’ve got some news on all of that!

Let’s just start, though, but getting some of the worst news out of the way: You’ll be waiting for a while to check out “Stronger Than My Rival.” At the earliest, you’re going to have a chance to see this on Tuesday, October 29 … but you could be forced to wait a little bit longer than that. If the World Series runs long, there’s a chance that you may have to wait until November to see what’s next … and that’s going to be torture for a lot of people eager to get more of a good sense of what’s going to happen with Lucious and Cookie next. The promo makes it clear that things are gonna get testy — especially since Lucious, to the shock of no one, is going to climb aboard his high horse and make it clear that he built Empire up to be a company. It’s his contributions that make it what it is, as opposed to hers.

Below, CarterMatt has the official Empire season 6 episode 5 synopsis with some more news as to what’s coming:

Lucious, still obsessed with his past, tries to make amends for his wrongdoings with an old friend. Cookie vies to take control of the house, putting the whole family in the middle. Andre and Lucious go head-to-head in a competition to figure out the direction Empire should be heading in. Meanwhile, Becky and Giselle are at odds over the future of Bossy music in the all-new “Stronger Than My Rival” episode of EMPIRE airing Tuesday, Oct. 29 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (EMP-605) (TV-14 D, L, S, V).

In the end, there’s a lot that is still to come on Empire no matter where you look — and that’s enough to make you wonder if they even have time to wrap this story up properly.
