After ushering his mother and sister to safety in Season Two, Tariq St. Patrick now finds himself at a crossroads: he wants to get his inheritance trust and his family back, but he’s being pulled even deeper into the drug business. With his own life and those of the people closest to him at stake, Tariq enters into business with some of the most dangerous people he’s ever met. Tariq is forced to juggle the business, school, and a new corporate persona as he fights to get control of his life back, but at the very least, he’s got his newfound chosen family backing him… That is, until secrets forged between them threaten to completely sever their relationship and the business, leaving Tariq to wonder whom, if anyone, he can trust.

Monet Stewart Tejada (Mary J. Blige)

The beginning of Season Three finds Monet Stewart Tejada grieving the loss of her firstborn son, Zeke Cross, and with him, the loss of her family’s future outside of the business. Monet tasks Davis MacLean with assisting her search for Zeke’s murderer, as her own connection to various other crimes is being brought into focus. And when it comes down to it, Monet must decide between the state of her remaining family and her own penchant for vengeance or somehow find a way to have both.

Cooper Saxe (Shane Johnson)

After choosing to align himself with Jenny Sullivan as her criminal informant, Cooper Saxe is doing all he can to get evidence pointing to Davis MacLean’s involvement in Tariq and the Tejada’s illicit dealings, while working as a double agent in Davis’ office. Saxe’s intentions are both personal and professional: he wants to get back into a romantic relationship with Jenny who is icing him out until he gets her information, and he wants to finally send Tariq to prison. Saxe is presented the perfect opportunity to get in close and get information when Davis tasks him with securing the release of Theo Rollins, Davis’ wrongfully convicted brother.

Brayden Weston (Gianni Paolo)

Following his expulsion from Stansfield, Brayden Weston is forced to work, under the tutelage of his uncle, Lucas Weston, President of the family’s hedge fund, Weston Holdings. The boys are back in business when Brayden brings Tariq into Weston, and they quickly intertwine their corporate lives with the drug game. But things are different this time around: Brayden, finally pressured to get his own hands dirty for the sake of the business, finds out the hard way that drug dealing isn’t all fun and games after all.

Dru Tejada (Lovell Adams-Gray)

When Dru Tejada’s ties to the drug game continue to drive a wedge between him and his boyfriend, Everett, Dru finds himself reconnecting with an old family friend, Uncle Frank’s son, Gordo. As the two grow closer, bonding over their roles in their respective family businesses, Gordo encourages Dru to show his family that he should be the one to take the Tejada throne. Dru believes he has finally found someone who really understands him, but the duplicitous relationship between their families takes a toll on their budding romance.

Jenny Sullivan (Paton Ashbrook)

With her reputation and ego singed by her loss in the Jabari Reynolds murder case, Jenny Sullivan is hellbent on exposing Tariq, the Tejadas, and Davis MacLean’s drug enterprise… and she’s got a secret up her sleeve that might just get her there. With Saxe as her C.I., and Agent Blanca Rodriguez partnering with her to form a federal task force, Jenny seems to have almost all she needs to take them all down on a R.I.C.O. charge and finally bring Tariq St. Patrick to justice.

Keke Travis (Moriah Brown)

Keke Travis is a young and quickly rising VP at Weston Holdings. Ivy League educated, Keke doesn’t come from privilege but is succeeding in the world of the business elite. Brayden Weston is quickly taken by her and the two enter a sexual relationship. Already holding her own secrets, she grows apprehensive about what Brayden’s hiding. Always looking out for herself, Keke plays on Brayden’s attraction to gain intel on what he and Tariq are up to — and to keep him from finding out the secrets she’s keeping.

Blanca Rodriguez (Monique Gabriela Curnen)

Power OG Blanca Rodriguez is no stranger to the St. Patrick’s history with the law, having had no luck in sticking a conviction on any member of the family. After the death of her C.I. Dante Spears, Blanca sees an opportunity to finally put a St. Patrick behind bars for good when she meets Jenny Sullivan, who suggests they combine forces to form a R.I.C.O. task force against the drug enterprise.

Effie Morales (Alix Lapri)

Effie Morales has always had to look out for herself, often making decisions solely for her own benefit. But after spending the summer with Tariq, Effie finds herself falling for him and being vulnerable in a way she never has been with anyone before. Effie plans to earn her “safety number,” to pay her way through to grad school and then be done with the drug business… and she’s starting to envision Tariq in that future with her… In order to get there, however, she’s got to reckon with a secret that could destroy everything between them — the secret that she killed Lauren Baldwin.

Cane Tejada (Woody McClain)

In the wake of Mecca’s death, Cane Tejada is in the market for a new connect for the family business when a new connect finds him. Forced to move an insane amount of weight (alongside Tariq, Brayden, and Effie), Cane takes helm of distribution on the streets at the behest of Lorenzo — but only because Cane is holding the secret of Zeke’s murder over him. Long vying for the Tejada throne, Cane steps up to make decisions for the family, often butting heads with his competition, younger brother, Dru. However, when things start to bubble over, Cane is focused on holding it down for the people he cares about.

Professor Harper Bennet (Keesha Sharp)

Professor Harper Bennet is a scholar who formerly taught at Howard University. Harper’s brilliance finds her as the new face of Stansfield’s American Psyche course. It’s at Stansfield that she runs into her old flame Rashad Tate, and the two find that the feelings they felt for each other in the past are all still there. As they rekindle their romance, the problems of their past are renewed as Bennet recognizes that their difference in politics and ethical boundaries still remain. Bennet is hopeful that she can influence Tate to become a better man and to lead down a path of integrity as he pursues the Democratic nomination.

Davis MacLean is in the thick of it as he is forced to help Tariq after Noma, Mecca’s supplier, engages him to move her product. Davis provides legal counsel to Monet as the Feds look into her for Carrie Milgram’s death, and helps her with her search for Zeke’s killer. In the midst of it all, Davis is trying to get his dying brother, Theo Rollins, out of prison with help from Cooper Saxe… but the pressure on Davis may have inadvertently caused him to put his trust in the wrong person.

Like his nephew Brayden, Lucas Weston has been considered the black sheep of the family. That said, there’s no question of his success in growing the Weston fortune as the investment manager of Weston Holdings. But now, Lucas is tasked by his older brother, Robert, to keep an eye on Brayden after he’s sentenced to “hard labor” at the fund for his CourseCorrect confession and tarnishing the family name. Always up for a flipping the bird at the family and his older brother, Lucas is happy to bring Tariq in as an intern when Brayden presents the idea. Lucas Weston’s loose morality and the extent to which he would go to acquire wealth come into focus as he starts to show his hand at a meeting to court the wealth of black billionaire Ron Samuel Jenkins to the fund.

Rashad Tate (Larenz Tate)

Rashad Tate is no stranger to shady business dealings — and his bid for a seat on the senate is no different. Tate, in the market for donors and campaign boosts, treads the fine the line of moral and immoral… legal and illegal. He also knows it wouldn’t hurt for him to score another win on his path to the senate: a wife. And when he rekindles a relationship with his old flame, Professor Harper Bennet, Tate considers a change in ethics for the better to win her and the election… though, it may not be as genuine as it seems.
