Fans of the musical drama television series, "Empire," are in for a slew of shocking revelations in the show's upcoming new episode. The show's third season episodes have featured a number of surprising events thus far, but the upcoming sixth episode may hold some even more shocking events which might include a death in the Lyon family.

According to the latest spoiler reports, the upcoming brand new episode titled "Chimes at Midnight" will be focused on a cyber attack on the Lyon family's company, Empire Entertainment. The attack then exposes all the secrets of the Lyon family which have apparently been spread to the public. However, it seems like the attack will not just be endangering the privacy of the Lyons but it might also be affecting their clients as well.

Following the hacking of their private files, different family members will reportedly be dealing with the situation in entirely different ways. Lucious, played by Terrence Howard, will completely lose it and succumb to his anger, while Andre, played by Trai Byers, will be completely calm about it as he assesses the damage done by the hackers.

One of the biggest reveals, however, will be about Cookie, played by Taraji P. Henson, and of her checkered past. The hackers will apparently uncover some rather lewd images of the respected business woman which includes her being completely topless. The spreading of her nude pictures will reportedly have a negative impact on her budding relationship with Angelo Dubious, played by Taye Diggs, and it is yet to be seen if he would be able to accept her given the situation.

While each of the family members will be dealing with the controversy in his or her own way, Jamal, played by Jussie Smollet, will apparently be feeling the blunt of the problems of his dysfunctional family. The recently released trailer for the new episode even shows him taking a large dose of an unknown medication which completely knocks him out. His new flame D-Major, played by Tobias Truvillion, is also seen frantically trying to wake him up after the reported overdose.

"Empire" season 3 episode 6 titled "Chimes at Midnight" airs tonight, Nov. 16, at 9 p.m. EST on FOX.
