Tariq Answers Tommy’s Call in a ‘Force’ Finale Episode
A quick rescue sequence in “Beginning of the End” delivers a long-teased crossover and raises the stakes in Tommy Egan’s Chicago war.

Tariq St. Patrick responds to Tommy Egan’s summons as the finale heats up.
Tommy Egan has spent three seasons in Chicago doing what he does best: starting fights, surviving them, and daring the city to keep up. In the closing stretch of Power Book IV: Force Season 3, the fight finally expands beyond his usual circle.
And the backup arrives from the last place fans expected to see it.
A Favor Finally Paid
In a newly released clip tied to Episode 10, “Beginning of the End,” Tommy makes the call he has been sitting on. He reaches out to Tariq St. Patrick and asks for help, with the kind of urgency that suggests the margin for error has vanished.
Tariq does not come alone.
The scene is built around a simple premise: Tommy is boxed in by Jenard Sampson’s crew, and the numbers are starting to tilt against him. Tariq responds to the request with a show of force that immediately raises the temperature.
It is not a reunion for nostalgia. It is a tactical decision.
Chicago War, New Pieces
Force has always treated Chicago as its own ecosystem: street crews with long memories, loyalties that shift by the hour, and retaliation that arrives fast. The clip keeps that rhythm. It’s all motion, pressure, and the sense that the next mistake could end everything.
Tommy is still the engine, but he is no longer the only lever.
Tariq’s arrival reframes the conflict in a clean, efficient way. It signals that Tommy’s war has outgrown local beefs. When someone from outside the city is pulled into the fight, it reads like a line has been crossed.
Jenard’s people don’t just have to worry about Tommy’s improvisation. They have to account for Tariq’s planning.
What The Moment Signals
For viewers, the headline is the crossover. For the story, the key is the ask. Tommy does not call for help unless he believes the alternative is worse. That choice carries weight in a show where pride is usually the first weapon.
The clip also offers a clear thesis for the finale: this ends with alliances, not speeches.
Tariq’s presence suggests the Power universe is tightening its connective tissue again. Separate wars can remain separate only so long before players start trading favors, manpower, and leverage.
In “Beginning of the End,” that trade looks simple. It also looks expensive.
