SEASON FINALE OF TYRANT - IT'S ON!!!!!!





OH, NO!  BARRY IS IN DEEP TROUBLE!

The lead character, Barry Al-Fayeed, tried to stage a coup against his brother Jamal's presidency. 

Jamal invited Barry out to fish and left cryptic clues about what was to come. He asked Barry to run away with him and forget everything in their country and their lives.  Barry declined, but should have said yes.



When Barry and Jamal return to the palace, Barry sees the military and believes that it's coming to get his brother.  However, the jokes on him!  Jamal was able to get one of the co-conspirators to confess everything after he gets him drunk. 

Jamal has been persuaded by his wife, Leilah (Barry's ex-girlfriend from his teen years), and his ruthless military general uncle, Tariq (whom Barry had put away somewhat justly for treason), to kill Barry.

Now, Barry is the one out.  He's now locked in the dungeon until next season.



Since the show's title, Tyrant, refers to Barry's ascension into "Tyranny", how will Barry get out of this mess in order to eventually fulfill his destiny?

Personally, I believe they need to keep both of these characters, Barry and Jamal.  The Jamal character is so good at bad like the "J.R." character from "Dallas".  You love to hate this guy because he's so crazy and unpredictable, yet he is as cunning as a fox.  Barry, of course, provides the voice of reason and stability, but also unbridled idealism.

Stay tuned!
