The upcoming season of Raising Kanan has fans on the edge due to speculation about significant character developments, including Snaps Henry’s possible death and revelations about DEFCON’s true lover. However, by digging deeper into the show’s themes and narrative patterns, it appears that these predictions may not be too far-fetched.

The Writing on the Wall for Snaps Henry

Snaps Henry’s actor Wendell Price has been hired for the CBS series ELTH. For fans who know how actors’ commitments often lead to their characters’ demise in ongoing series, this career move is a red flag. Snaps’ untimely death is hinted at by historical patterns in the Power universe. The tone for every season of Raising Kanan has been set by a major death in the premiere or early episodes. Buck 20’s demise in Season 1 or Detective Burke’s shocking demise in Season 3 were both pivotal moments that resulted in lasting repercussions in the storyline. Snaps are expected to not make it past Episode 1 of Season 4. The question of who will be accountable for his death is still unresolved.

Who Might Pull the Trigger?

Several candidates could take Snaps’ life, each with compelling motivations:

• Raquel Thomas, who goes by the name Raq, has designed many strategic operations, and her recent disputes with Snaps and Pop could lead her to take action first to safeguard her empire.
• Snaps’ own partner’s potential betrayal adds an intriguing layer of intrigue. Pop may take drastic measures to regain control of her life due to her unwillingness to re-enter the drug game and dissatisfaction with Snaps’ decisions.
• Unique is expected to operate at a higher level of volatility after his harrowing near-death experience in Season 3. His potential resentment towards Snaps and Pop for their connection to his brother Ronnie could spell trouble.
• Kanan’s growing ambitions and ruthlessness may lead him to believe that eliminating Snaps is necessary to secure his dominance.
• A popular theory suggests that Snaps’ death could be Jukebox’s first major kill, marking her transition into the feared enforcer seen in later installments of the Power franchise.

DEFCON’s Secret Lover: A Twist in the Tale

DEFCON, Kanan’s presumed father, is the focus of another major speculation. Although DEFCON’s sexuality and relationships were hinted at throughout the series, it is believed that Snaps was DEFCON’s true partner. Snaps and Pop’s relationship has been more transactional than romantic at times, similar to Raq’s relationship with DEFCON. The theory is supported by their coordinated behavior, matching outfits, and the absence of children even after years together. If this revelation surfaces, it could dramatically shift the dynamics between Raq, Kanan, and the remaining allies of the Thomas family.

The Impact of Snaps’ Death on Season 4

Snaps’ demise would lead to ripples being spread throughout the Raising Kanan universe. His departure could intensify existing tensions among the characters, spark new feuds, and make the power struggles between the Thomas family and their adversaries even more complicated. The show’s history of surprising twists means that any outcome will likely have a lasting impact on the series’ direction.

Final Thoughts

Snaps Henry’s intrigue with DEFCON’s true lover complements the complex storytelling that has become a characteristic of Raising Kanan. Regardless of whether these theories come to fruition or lead to even more shocking developments, Season 4 is set to deliver drama, betrayal, and the high-stakes action fans have come to adore.
