Empire season 5 episode 6 live stream: Watch online

As Cookie tries to keep Lyon Family Management legit, Lucious continues to gamble on the new business venture, but at what cost?

As the Lyons continue struggling to get their fledgling management company off the ground, their desperation leads to more dangerous actions — which means we’re getting even closer to learning who was in the casket at the start of the season.

Here is tonight’s synopsis:

"In an effort to sign more artists, Cookie and Lucious make a bet to see who can find someone first. While Lucious bets on the chance to meet an up and coming rapper in a high stakes poker game, Cookie takes to the streets to find untapped talent in a set of auditions. Meanwhile, Hakeem refuses to leave the studio when his rage inspires what he considers his best music yet and Jamal finds himself at a crossroads when Becky claims he’s spending too much time with Kai."

So a lot happens in this episode. While Cookie seems determined to build the Lyons’ new business venture the right way, Lucious hasn’t lost his edge and is becoming more ruthless in his journey back to the top. The preview for the episode indicates that Lucious’ half of the bet won’t go as planned as we see the poker game raided by police.

A sneak peek of the episode also shows the introduction of Wood Harris as new recurring character Damon Cross. He’s described as an international money launderer who’s “smooth, intimidating, sexy with an edge and dangerous ties.” In Cross’ own words, he’s a “game-changer.”

Cross will join Lucious at the poker table in “What is Done” and May also be introduced as a competitor for Cookie’s’ affection.
