"Sins" is focused, well-paced, and suspenseful. It's intricate and deliberate instead of being dense and harried. Many of its scenes rank among the show's best this season.

[The] pull to be altruistic and caring of those around them in their last hours coupled with the more selfish desire to do whatever they hell they want while they still can... [is] one of the few things that Empire and Terrence Howard are doing very well.

"Sins of the Father" is as much an adrenaline-filled thrill ride-like any Empire episode-as it is a takedown of the patriarchy, a big middle finger to the powerful men like Lucious who see everyone else's work as secondary to their own.

Is there any redeeming Lucious at this point? Just when you think he can't get any worse, he gets worse.
