“Baptism” finds the main players in The Power honing their skills and training others as they prepare for the coming battle. Urbandox is amassing followers at an alarming rate, and governments across the globe are suppressing women by any means necessary. This is all leading to an unavoidable war.
The seventh installment feels somewhat repetitive, going over the same plot points again and again. We are shown numerous individuals training one another, while Allie’s subplot seems to be inching forwards at a slow, frustrating pace.
Here’s what happened in The Power Season 1 Episode 7:
- Roxy trains other girls to use their powers. This little business venture allows her to pay rent at her dad’s place. Bernie is even contemplating putting her in his will.

- Ryan tries to win Jos back with a romantic gesture, using his own EOD powers. Matty films this. Jos and Ryan reunite and kiss.
- Tunde watches Zoia give birth. Later, he asks her for an interview. Zoia will give Tunde the interview if he meets with Tatiana first. She wants him to pass on a message.
