As the thirteenth episode of Empire's fourth season begins, the Lyons are still trying to recover from the sudden death of Anika. Things are further complicated by the fact that Hakeem's baby girl Bella is still in the custody of her maternal grandmother and Lucius is dealing with the aftermath of the car bombing.

Tensions are running high between Cookie and Lucius, with Cookie feeling neglected by her ex-husband. Meanwhile, Andre is still reeling from the loss of his wife and unborn child. Hakeem, on the other hand, is focused on his music and trying to get his baby girl back.

As the episode progresses, we see a number of power plays within the family, with each member trying to solidify their position. Cookie is still trying to convince Lucius to take her seriously as a business partner, while Andre is vying for more control of the company.

Things come to a head at a family dinner, during which Lucius announces that he plans to step away from Empire and focus on his health. This causes a rift within the family, with each member wondering how the company will survive without its patriarch.

In the midst of all the family drama, Hakeem is working on his music and decides to produce a track with fellow rapper Blake. The two have a chemistry that is undeniable, and it's clear that Hakeem sees Blake as a potential collaborator and friend.

However, things take a turn when Blake's father shows up at the studio and reveals that he knows about Blake's relationship with Hakeem. He is unhappy about the prospect of his son working with a member of the Lyon family and demands that Blake end their collaboration immediately.

Undeterred, Hakeem sets out to prove himself to Blake's father, showcasing his skills as a rapper and producer. He also offers to help Blake make connections within the industry, knowing how difficult it can be for up-and-coming artists.

The episode ends with the family still reeling from Lucius' announcement and coping with the aftermath of Anika's death. The future of Empire is uncertain, but one thing is clear: the Lyons will do whatever it takes to stay on top.

Overall, "Of Hardiness is Mother" is a dramatic and intense episode of Empire that showcases the struggles and power plays within the Lyon family. While the overarching plot of the season is still unfolding, this episode sets the stage for some major shifts in power and alliances within the family.
