1
00:00:00,039 --> 00:00:02,372
- Previously on Empire...
- Music streaming
2
00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:03,573
will make Empire
3
00:00:03,641 --> 00:00:04,907
the dominant player in the music industry.
4
00:00:04,976 --> 00:00:07,110
Swiftstream. It's ready for a merger.
5
00:00:07,178 --> 00:00:09,145
"Cookie's Cookout." In Harlem.
6
00:00:09,214 --> 00:00:10,980
That's in Big Heavy's territory.
7
00:00:11,049 --> 00:00:12,081
I'm not doing business with him,
8
00:00:12,150 --> 00:00:13,416
not after what he did to my son.
9
00:00:13,485 --> 00:00:15,885
So who you calling a little bitch now, huh?
10
00:00:15,954 --> 00:00:19,389
Pull the trigger, you gonna force
me to step in front of the bullet.
11
00:00:19,457 --> 00:00:20,923
I'm handling it. You need to be handling
12
00:00:20,992 --> 00:00:22,392
business, not booty.
13
00:00:22,460 --> 00:00:23,559
Fall back.
14
00:00:23,628 --> 00:00:25,294
I would be honored to submit a song.
15
00:00:25,363 --> 00:00:26,329
Congratulations, Jamal.
16
00:00:26,398 --> 00:00:27,830
I'm dropping my last name.
17
00:00:27,899 --> 00:00:29,565
From here on out, I go by Hakeem.
18
00:00:29,634 --> 00:00:30,566
Think I'm in love,
19
00:00:30,635 --> 00:00:31,501
but we still homies, right?
20
00:00:31,569 --> 00:00:32,635
I still think you dope.
21
00:00:32,704 --> 00:00:33,503
So what did you have to tell me?
22
00:00:33,571 --> 00:00:34,437
Nothing.
23
00:00:34,506 --> 00:00:35,405
Rhonda's pregnant.
24
00:00:35,473 --> 00:00:37,273
I've always wanted a grandson.
25
00:00:37,342 --> 00:00:39,675
Babies are like kryptonite
for Lucious. Really.
26
00:00:39,744 --> 00:00:41,444
Where to?
27
00:00:41,513 --> 00:00:43,980
Loretha! Our sister Carol is on a bender.
28
00:00:44,048 --> 00:00:46,449
Say this was all
Corky and Jermel's fault.
29
00:00:46,518 --> 00:00:48,317
We gotta go to Philly.
30
00:00:49,354 --> 00:00:51,687
♪ ♪
31
00:00:56,628 --> 00:00:57,560
Yo!
32
00:00:57,629 --> 00:00:58,995
Loretha!
33
00:00:59,063 --> 00:01:00,129
What?
34
00:01:00,198 --> 00:01:01,931
Slow down, before I break my damn heel!
35
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,633
They're made in Hong Kong, I'm sure.
36
00:01:03,701 --> 00:01:05,902
Girl, get to steppin'! I
gotta get back to New York.
37
00:01:05,970 --> 00:01:07,570
Look, I am not leaving Philadelphia
38
00:01:07,639 --> 00:01:09,572
till I find Carol, and neither are you!
39
00:01:09,641 --> 00:01:12,175
Look, Candace, we been
looking for Carol for two days.
40
00:01:12,243 --> 00:01:13,443
And...? We ain't found her.
41
00:01:13,511 --> 00:01:15,645
And I need to get back to my Cookout,
42
00:01:15,713 --> 00:01:17,113
because I worked really hard on it
43
00:01:17,182 --> 00:01:18,381
and it's very important to me.
44
00:01:18,450 --> 00:01:19,916
Well, maybe it's time
45
00:01:19,984 --> 00:01:21,851
for other things to be important to you.
46
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:22,852
Like Carol.
47
00:01:22,921 --> 00:01:24,854
Shut your dumb ass up.
48
00:01:24,923 --> 00:01:28,257
Why is it every time Carol gets missing,
49
00:01:28,326 --> 00:01:29,725
the world stops turning?
50
00:01:29,794 --> 00:01:31,627
Because she's our sister, stupid.
51
00:01:31,696 --> 00:01:34,564
Yeah, well, ain't nobody
send no search party for me,
52
00:01:34,632 --> 00:01:36,599
when I was locked up all them 17 years.
53
00:01:36,668 --> 00:01:38,134
Maybe because we knew where you were.
54
00:01:38,203 --> 00:01:40,369
Yeah, I can count on one hand
55
00:01:40,438 --> 00:01:43,206
how many times your bougie
ass came to visit me.
56
00:01:43,274 --> 00:01:44,640
Well, you can keep on counting, Cookie,
57
00:01:44,709 --> 00:01:46,175
'cause I don't do prisons.
58
00:01:48,046 --> 00:01:49,412
Bitch.
59
00:01:49,481 --> 00:01:52,248
I want this whole city
plastered with these posters!
60
00:01:52,317 --> 00:01:53,749
Or you fired.
61
00:01:53,818 --> 00:01:55,084
I'm dead serious.
62
00:01:55,153 --> 00:01:56,619
That's my mom?
63
00:01:56,688 --> 00:01:57,920
Yo, Ma, where you been at?
64
00:01:57,989 --> 00:02:00,056
I been trying to get at
you all day. Where you at?
65
00:02:00,124 --> 00:02:01,557
Boy, didn't I tell you I was
66
00:02:01,626 --> 00:02:03,292
out of town handling some business?
67
00:02:03,361 --> 00:02:04,594
Yeah, well, you need to start taking care
68
00:02:04,662 --> 00:02:06,295
of some business here. You
need to come back here now.
69
00:02:06,364 --> 00:02:07,530
Hakeem, I ain't got time for this, boy.
70
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:08,865
What you want?
71
00:02:08,933 --> 00:02:10,733
We gettin' crazy shine
off me winning the battle.
72
00:02:10,802 --> 00:02:12,602
Plus, your Cookout sold out this morning,
73
00:02:12,670 --> 00:02:14,837
and Rock Steady Park wants
us to add a second show.
74
00:02:14,906 --> 00:02:16,973
Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes!
75
00:02:17,041 --> 00:02:19,041
Okay, you tell Laz to
book the venue right now.
76
00:02:19,110 --> 00:02:20,843
Make sure Laura and those girls
77
00:02:20,912 --> 00:02:22,745
are rehearsing around the clock.
78
00:02:22,814 --> 00:02:23,913
They gotta build up their stamina
79
00:02:23,982 --> 00:02:25,181
to open two nights. Okay?
80
00:02:25,250 --> 00:02:27,350
I'm counting on you to call all the shots
81
00:02:27,418 --> 00:02:28,684
while I'm stuck up here.
82
00:02:28,753 --> 00:02:30,620
Look...
83
00:02:30,688 --> 00:02:32,922
I want you to know I'm
very proud of you, okay?
84
00:02:32,991 --> 00:02:34,524
And I love you so much.
85
00:02:34,592 --> 00:02:36,292
All right, I love you, too, Ma.
86
00:02:36,361 --> 00:02:38,261
Hey! Get your
drink off my mixing board...
87
00:02:38,329 --> 00:02:39,695
You know, that Lucious
88
00:02:39,764 --> 00:02:42,431
was always a smooth-talkin',
low-down, dirty dog,
89
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:44,433
but it seems like he
did right with them boys.
90
00:02:44,502 --> 00:02:46,235
Yeah, he did all right.
91
00:02:46,304 --> 00:02:49,071
Sometimes bad dudes make decent fathers.
92
00:02:49,140 --> 00:02:50,506
Sometimes.
93
00:02:50,575 --> 00:02:52,008
How is, uh... Brittany...
94
00:02:52,076 --> 00:02:53,109
Brianna, right? Yeah, Brianna.
95
00:02:53,177 --> 00:02:54,644
And Franklin. She's an honor student.
96
00:02:54,712 --> 00:02:56,212
Champion figure skater.
97
00:02:56,281 --> 00:02:57,647
And my Franklin?
98
00:02:57,715 --> 00:02:59,148
President of the debate team.
99
00:02:59,217 --> 00:03:00,683
Mmm, well.
100
00:03:00,752 --> 00:03:02,618
Do they know they half black?
101
00:03:02,687 --> 00:03:04,687
Oh, damn. What?
102
00:03:04,756 --> 00:03:06,589
Uh, Candace...
103
00:03:06,658 --> 00:03:08,457
remember where Carol used to hang out
104
00:03:08,526 --> 00:03:09,792
when she first started gettin' high?
105
00:03:09,861 --> 00:03:11,561
Oh, hell to the no!
106
00:03:11,629 --> 00:03:13,229
We gotta go there. No, no, no, no.
107
00:03:13,298 --> 00:03:15,731
Loretha, I don't do prisons,
108
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,600
I'm definitely not doing a crack house.
109
00:03:17,669 --> 00:03:20,369

to start recording
174
00:05:44,515 --> 00:05:46,182

Brenda, you go first.

Uh, my question is for Ms. Summers. Oh.
181
00:06:00,231 --> 00:06:01,931
Skye, does this mean you'll
be signing with Empire?

But we couldn't be more
excited to be working with Jamal
185
00:06:09,173 --> 00:06:11,974
and the legendary Lucious Lyon.
186
00:06:12,043 --> 00:06:13,309
Now, hold on, hold on.
187
00:06:13,377 --> 00:06:14,777
What's up with this "legendary" stuff?
188
00:06:14,846 --> 00:06:15,778
You makin' me sound Neolithic or something.
189
00:06:17,081 --> 00:06:19,215
Trust me, I got a few
good decades left in me.
190
00:06:19,283 --> 00:06:20,549
But for the record,
191
00:06:20,618 --> 00:06:22,051
Empire would be thrilled
192
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,986
to have Skye Summers on its roster.
193
00:06:24,055 --> 00:06:25,755
And Jamal, how excited are you
194
00:06:25,823 --> 00:06:27,490
to be working with a
multi-platinum-selling
195
00:06:27,558 --> 00:06:29,325
artist like Skye Summers?
196
00:06:29,393 --> 00:06:30,326
Oh, my goodness.
197
00:06:30,394 --> 00:06:31,761
How excited am I?
198
00:06:31,829 --> 00:06:33,129
I'm crazy excited. Are you kidding me?
199
00:06:33,197 --> 00:06:34,897
Skye, I don't want to
embarrass you too much,
200
00:06:34,966 --> 00:06:36,232
but... y'all, I'm sorry.
201
00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:39,435
I am the "Oh, gee, Skye Summers" fan.
202
00:06:39,504 --> 00:06:42,404
And-and her first CD was the
very first CD I ever bought.
203
00:06:42,473 --> 00:06:43,939
You know, I scratched it up
204
00:06:44,008 --> 00:06:45,074
till it couldn't play anymore.
205
00:06:45,143 --> 00:06:46,041
And I love her.
206
00:06:46,110 --> 00:06:47,643
I'm in love with Skye Summers.
207
00:06:47,712 --> 00:06:48,978
Y'all can print that.
208
00:06:49,046 --> 00:06:51,013
Jamal!
209
00:06:51,082 --> 00:06:52,681
I'm not really feeling this thing.
210
00:06:52,750 --> 00:06:53,682
Let's hit the studio.
211
00:06:53,751 --> 00:06:55,017
You know I came to play.
212
00:06:55,086 --> 00:06:56,285
I am so down. Come on, now.
213
00:06:56,354 --> 00:06:57,753
Dad?
214
00:06:57,822 --> 00:06:59,188
Okay, if y'all want us to produce
215
00:06:59,257 --> 00:07:00,856
diamond, platinum and gold albums,
216
00:07:00,925 --> 00:07:02,725
you're gonna have to let us get to work.
217
00:07:02,794 --> 00:07:04,260
Have a good one. Lucious!
218
00:07:04,328 --> 00:07:06,095
Lucious! Lucious!

Yo. Yo.
225
00:07:15,239 --> 00:07:16,005
What're you doing here?
226
00:07:16,073 --> 00:07:18,374
Chill. Just chill.
227
00:07:18,442 --> 00:07:19,742
You hear that? Uh-huh.
228
00:07:19,811 --> 00:07:21,143
That's them practicing their asses off,
229
00:07:21,212 --> 00:07:22,812
'cause they're gonna do a second show.
230
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,446
It's not time to get paid.
231
00:07:24,515 --> 00:07:26,415
Yo, Laz, these people are loaded.
232
00:07:26,484 --> 00:07:28,551
Why we just ripping off the music gigs?
233
00:07:28,619 --> 00:07:30,252
Because that's the play.
234
00:07:30,321 --> 00:07:32,688
Well, I'm starting to think
we should be cutting deeper.
235
00:07:32,757 --> 00:07:35,090
Shake 'em down from all sides.
236
00:07:35,159 --> 00:07:36,525
Know what, Hev?
237
00:07:36,594 --> 00:07:38,060
The deal's off.
238
00:07:38,129 --> 00:07:40,763
Ain't on you to call anything off.
239
00:07:40,832 --> 00:07:42,731
I think it is.
240
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,033
Hmm?
241
00:07:44,101 --> 00:07:45,634
You pulling on me?
242
00:07:45,703 --> 00:07:47,636
You think you're the only one
243
00:07:47,705 --> 00:07:48,938
who came heavy, bro?
244
00:07:49,006 --> 00:07:50,372
Trust me,
245
00:07:50,441 --> 00:07:52,408
you two in the dome by
the time you...
246
00:07:52,476 --> 00:07:53,776
By the time what?
247
00:07:53,845 --> 00:07:55,477
Hmm?
248
00:07:55,546 --> 00:07:59,215
I'm disappointed in you.
249
00:07:59,283 --> 00:08:02,184
Here I thought we was in this for life.
250
00:08:02,253 --> 00:08:03,953
Or death.
251
00:08:04,021 --> 00:08:05,187
That's your call.
252
00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,120
__
253
00:08:23,189 --> 00:08:25,556
You know what? I can't. I can't.
254
00:08:25,625 --> 00:08:26,991
Hit 95 North, please.
255
00:08:27,059 --> 00:08:29,860
- For what? - I got to get
back to Lyon Dynasty.
256
00:08:29,929 --> 00:08:32,830
Look, Carol is always
coming up missing, okay?
257
00:08:32,899 --> 00:08:34,865
She'll turn up sooner or
later. She always does.
258
00:08:34,934 --> 00:08:36,534
No, no, no, you're not going anywhere.
259
00:08:36,602 --> 00:08:37,735
Head toward Olney Plaza, please.
260
00:08:37,803 --> 00:08:41,272
Uh, I have to go back to New York.
261
00:08:41,340 --> 00:08:43,407
What happened to Jermel, Cookie?
262
00:08:43,476 --> 00:08:46,443
Why did his head end up in a box?
263
00:08:46,512 --> 00:08:49,079
You know as much as me.
264
00:08:49,148 --> 00:08:50,614
You're a damn liar.
265
00:08:50,683 --> 00:08:52,016
This is all your fault.
266
00:08:52,084 --> 00:08:53,284
Do you understand that?
267
00:08:53,352 --> 00:08:54,718
Like when we were kids.
268
00:08:54,787 --> 00:08:57,788
Who gave Carol her first drink
and brought her home drunk?
269
00:08:57,857 --> 00:09:00,124
You know what? It is
not my fault she couldn't
270
00:09:00,193 --> 00:09:01,125
hold her liquor. Oh, no, you...
271
00:09:01,194 --> 00:09:02,126
I don't have to take this from you!
272
00:09:02,195 --> 00:09:03,127
Oh, yes. Pull this car over!
273
00:09:03,196 --> 00:09:05,162
No! No, no...! Pull over! Now!
274
00:09:05,231 --> 00:09:06,697
Pull this damn car over!
275
00:09:06,766 --> 00:09:08,832
Cookie!
276
00:09:08,901 --> 00:09:11,235
Cookie...!
277
00:09:11,304 --> 00:09:13,337
Get back in the car! No! No.
278
00:09:13,406 --> 00:09:15,906
It's all my fault, then
I don't need to be here.
279
00:09:15,975 --> 00:09:17,908
But listen... Look...
280
00:09:17,977 --> 00:09:20,644
why don't you take my car
and go look for her yourself?
281
00:09:20,713 --> 00:09:22,646
I'll just catch a cab back to New York.
282
00:09:22,715 --> 00:09:23,681
Listen to me.
Listen to me! Li...
283
00:09:23,749 --> 00:09:25,449
Girl, get your hands off my fur!
284
00:09:25,518 --> 00:09:27,184
Listen! What?!
285
00:09:27,253 --> 00:09:29,653
If I find Carol dead,
286
00:09:29,722 --> 00:09:31,689
it's on you.
287
00:09:31,757 --> 00:09:34,158
Don't kid yourself, Candace.
288
00:09:34,227 --> 00:09:37,428
It's always on me.
289
00:09:44,737 --> 00:09:46,337
Hey, Pepper girl. Yeah.
290
00:09:46,405 --> 00:09:47,838
Nah, nah, I'm still in Philly.
291
00:09:47,907 --> 00:09:50,274
Candace? No.
292
00:09:50,343 --> 00:09:51,742
I ditched her tight bougie ass.
293
00:09:51,811 --> 00:09:53,210
I couldn't take it no more.
294
00:09:53,279 --> 00:09:55,512
Yeah, but I can't leave
Carol twisting in the wind,
295
00:09:55,581 --> 00:09:57,381
so I'm gonna need your help finding her.
296
00:09:57,450 --> 00:10:00,184
Yeah, I'm gonna come to
you right now. Is that cool?
297
00:10:00,253 --> 00:10:02,886
Where are you nowadays?
298
00:10:02,955 --> 00:10:05,322
Damn, bitch, all the
way out in the suburbs?!
299
00:10:05,391 --> 00:10:07,324
Nah, it's cool. It's cool.
300
00:10:07,393 --> 00:10:08,826
I'll see you in a minute.
301
00:10:08,894 --> 00:10:10,394
So? What do you think?
302
00:10:10,463 --> 00:10:11,595
Oh!
303
00:10:11,664 --> 00:10:14,732
Lucious, this is... stunning.
304
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,400
I mean, I can't get over it.
305
00:10:16,469 --> 00:10:17,901
No. Six bedrooms.
306
00:10:17,970 --> 00:10:20,337
More than enough room for a nursery.
307
00:10:20,406 --> 00:10:21,772
And get this. What?
308
00:10:21,841 --> 00:10:23,807
You could have the nanny's quarters below.
309
00:10:23,876 --> 00:10:26,010
Amazing! Amazing.
310
00:10:26,078 --> 00:10:27,378
I don't know what to say.
311
00:10:27,446 --> 00:10:29,213
We, uh, can't thank you enough for this.
312
00:10:29,282 --> 00:10:30,981
Yeah. No, no, no.
313
00:10:31,050 --> 00:10:33,317
The thank you is to you two.
314
00:10:33,386 --> 00:10:36,754
Because of y'all, the Lyon
legacy is gonna live on.
315
00:10:36,822 --> 00:10:39,823
I mean, when Hakeem decided he
was gonna drop his last name,
316
00:10:39,892 --> 00:10:41,925
I realized then that I got to start looking
317
00:10:41,994 --> 00:10:43,260
to the next generation.
318
00:10:43,329 --> 00:10:44,595
Mm-hmm.
319
00:10:47,933 --> 00:10:49,366
This is the future!
320
00:10:49,435 --> 00:10:50,968
Oh!
321
00:10:51,037 --> 00:10:53,837
Oh. Please take a look
at the rest of your house.
322
00:10:53,906 --> 00:10:57,041
I am gonna go decide where
the nursery's gonna go.
323
00:10:59,879 --> 00:11:01,578
Wow!
324
00:11:01,647 --> 00:11:03,280
Your faith.
325
00:11:03,349 --> 00:11:06,784
Can't believe it, but it's
made you a stronger man.
326
00:11:06,852 --> 00:11:09,186
It made you a man of conviction.
327
00:11:09,255 --> 00:11:12,156
My grandson is so fortunate and blessed
328
00:11:12,224 --> 00:11:14,458
to have you as his father.
329
00:11:14,527 --> 00:11:16,493
I'm through testing you, Dre.
330
00:11:16,562 --> 00:11:18,462
You mean it?
331
00:11:18,531 --> 00:11:20,964
From my core.
332
00:11:21,033 --> 00:11:23,901
Thank you, Pop.
333
00:11:23,969 --> 00:11:25,469
And what you said,
334
00:11:25,538 --> 00:11:27,971
it means more to me than all of this.
335
00:11:29,909 --> 00:11:32,109
I'm so proud of you, man.
336
00:11:32,178 --> 00:11:34,445
But you gotta admit,
337
00:11:34,513 --> 00:11:36,280
it's a pretty damn nice gift, ain't it?
338
00:11:38,184 --> 00:11:40,050
You know what? I think we need to move
339
00:11:40,119 --> 00:11:41,518
a lot faster on this Swiftstream deal.
340
00:11:41,587 --> 00:11:43,754
I want us to be the dominant force
341
00:11:43,823 --> 00:11:47,825
in music streaming long before
my grandson is potty-trained.
342
00:11:47,893 --> 00:11:49,827
I've been working on that and
I think I've found a solution.
343
00:11:49,895 --> 00:11:51,161
You ever hear of Bowie Bonds?
344
00:11:51,230 --> 00:11:53,330
Yeah, something about Bowie
wanting to buy his, um,
345
00:11:53,399 --> 00:11:55,332
music catalog back from an ex-manager
346
00:11:55,401 --> 00:11:57,701
he had a falling out with.
347
00:11:57,770 --> 00:11:59,670
Right, and as a result,
he came up with a concept
348
00:11:59,739 --> 00:12:02,072
of forfeiting future
royalties for cash on hand.
349
00:12:02,141 --> 00:12:04,174
Are you saying we can
raise the money we need
350
00:12:04,243 --> 00:12:06,477
by using my old music as collateral?
351
00:12:06,545 --> 00:12:08,078
Bingo. That's genius.
352
00:12:08,147 --> 00:12:09,179
Let's do it.
353
00:12:09,248 --> 00:12:10,314
There's a catch.
354
00:12:10,383 --> 00:12:11,915
Mom still owns half the publishing rights
355
00:12:11,984 --> 00:12:13,851
over some of those early songs.
356
00:12:13,919 --> 00:12:16,553
The ones that are most valuable.
357
00:12:16,622 --> 00:12:18,255
Damn.
358
00:12:18,324 --> 00:12:21,225
Hey, hold off on the new posters
until I confirm night two.
359
00:12:21,293 --> 00:12:23,060
Had a few hiccups with the venue.
360
00:12:23,129 --> 00:12:24,461
I just want to make
sure that's squared away.
361
00:12:24,530 --> 00:12:25,929
Let's get the copy ready for when I'm back.
362
00:12:25,998 --> 00:12:27,831
Laz, let me holla at you.
363
00:12:27,900 --> 00:12:29,266
Yeah, okay, Hakeem.
364
00:12:29,335 --> 00:12:31,769
Uh, I want to go over the press
calendar next when I get back.
365
00:12:31,837 --> 00:12:33,337
Have that ready.
366
00:12:33,406 --> 00:12:35,706
Close the door.
367
00:12:37,343 --> 00:12:39,610
Is there a problem? You tell me.
368
00:12:39,678 --> 00:12:41,979
I heard Big Heavy and his
boys came and paid us a visit?
369
00:12:42,047 --> 00:12:43,981
I can't have them boys coming around here,
370
00:12:44,049 --> 00:12:45,282
making my girls nervous.
371
00:12:45,351 --> 00:12:46,650
I feel you, all right?
372
00:12:46,719 --> 00:12:47,985
But I took care of it.
373
00:12:48,053 --> 00:12:49,353
They're not gonna come back again.
374
00:12:49,422 --> 00:12:50,821
Good.
375
00:12:50,890 --> 00:12:52,656
Look, man, I know I've been hard on you.
376
00:12:52,725 --> 00:12:54,324
My label is my life.
377
00:12:54,393 --> 00:12:56,460
My mom, she deserves the best.
378
00:12:56,529 --> 00:12:57,995
She does.
379
00:12:58,063 --> 00:12:59,263
As do you.
380
00:12:59,331 --> 00:13:00,431
And that's real talk.
381
00:13:00,499 --> 00:13:01,965
Thank you, but I don't need no props.
382
00:13:02,034 --> 00:13:04,201
We should have announced
my second concert by now.
383
00:13:04,270 --> 00:13:05,903
We got a lot of tickets to sell.
384
00:13:05,971 --> 00:13:06,804
Why you stalling?
385
00:13:06,872 --> 00:13:07,905
Look, I'm not stalling.
386
00:13:07,973 --> 00:13:09,773
You just need to trust me.
387
00:13:09,842 --> 00:13:11,008
All right?
388
00:13:11,076 --> 00:13:12,009
All right.
389
00:13:12,077 --> 00:13:14,211
But this is my time.
390
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,713
So I trust you'll make it happen.
391
00:13:16,782 --> 00:13:18,549
I will.
392
00:13:18,617 --> 00:13:20,150
That's a bet.
393
00:13:20,219 --> 00:13:21,785
Don't let me down.
394
00:13:30,496 --> 00:13:31,562
What, Lucious?
395
00:13:31,630 --> 00:13:32,830
Hey, Cookie.
396
00:13:32,898 --> 00:13:34,264
Look, I need to talk
to you about something.
397
00:13:34,333 --> 00:13:35,399
It's real important.
398
00:13:35,468 --> 00:13:37,601
I am walking all alone, by myself,
399
00:13:37,670 --> 00:13:39,203
in a very dangerous neighborhood,
400
00:13:39,271 --> 00:13:40,471
so just get to the point.
401
00:13:40,539 --> 00:13:41,972
What, you need me to come and get you?
402
00:13:42,041 --> 00:13:44,041
No, I just need you to
tell me what you want.
403
00:13:44,109 --> 00:13:46,376
Now, look here, I'm about
to purchase this company
404
00:13:46,445 --> 00:13:49,012
calling Swiftstream... it's a
music streaming service to...
405
00:13:49,081 --> 00:13:50,047
Cookie?
406
00:13:50,115 --> 00:13:51,515
Okay, Lucious, you gonna have
407
00:13:51,584 --> 00:13:53,116
to talk to me about later, okay?
408
00:13:53,185 --> 00:13:54,551
Wait, wait, wait, wait...!
409
00:13:54,620 --> 00:13:57,087
Damn, Pepper, it took you
long enough to hit me back.
410
00:13:57,156 --> 00:13:58,622
Girl, you still rocking a pager?
411
00:13:58,691 --> 00:14:00,190
Someone has to make the muffins, honey.
412
00:14:00,259 --> 00:14:01,959
Baker's hours are no joke.
413
00:14:02,027 --> 00:14:03,193
Come here! Aw...
414
00:14:03,262 --> 00:14:05,295
Oh, my goodness! Aw, so good!
415
00:14:06,866 --> 00:14:10,033
Damn, Cookie, you look
like a million bucks.
416
00:14:10,102 --> 00:14:11,168
Just a million, huh?
417
00:14:11,237 --> 00:14:12,870
I must be slipping.
418
00:14:12,938 --> 00:14:14,304
Nah, you're keeping it firm, honey.
419
00:14:14,373 --> 00:14:15,739
I remember you
420
00:14:15,808 --> 00:14:18,542
making us all do laps
around the yard, right?
421
00:14:18,611 --> 00:14:20,043
Correctional cardio, baby.
422
00:14:20,112 --> 00:14:22,145
You in the yard, keeping them all skinny.
423
00:14:22,214 --> 00:14:24,047
And you in the kitchen, keeping them thick.
424
00:14:24,116 --> 00:14:25,849
Baddest bitches on the block.
425
00:14:27,586 --> 00:14:30,320
Hi. Uh, why don't we go in the kitchen?
426
00:14:30,389 --> 00:14:31,388
How you doing?
427
00:14:31,457 --> 00:14:33,490
Wait till you see what I got.
428
00:14:33,559 --> 00:14:35,392
Oh, here it is, mommy, right there.
429
00:14:35,461 --> 00:14:36,994
All right, now, Miss Betty Crocker,
430
00:14:37,062 --> 00:14:38,395
I knew you could burn in the kitchen,
431
00:14:38,464 --> 00:14:39,963
but what else you got
cooking in these back rooms?
432
00:14:40,032 --> 00:14:43,066
I have no idea what you're insinuating.
433
00:14:43,135 --> 00:14:46,236
Just a bunch of little bakers... baking.
434
00:14:46,305 --> 00:14:47,771
So I asked around about your sister.
435
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:48,805
Mmm.
436
00:14:48,874 --> 00:14:50,040
She's hanging out with Boz.
437
00:14:50,109 --> 00:14:51,475
Has been for a couple months.
438
00:14:51,544 --> 00:14:53,510
That little skinny bitch
that likes to beat women.
439
00:14:53,579 --> 00:14:54,811
That would be him.
440
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,380
Yeah, I got it from here.
441
00:14:56,448 --> 00:14:59,049
Listen, ain't no way Boz's
crew's gonna talk to you.
442
00:14:59,118 --> 00:15:00,984
Not like the way they talk to me.
443
00:15:01,053 --> 00:15:03,020
I'm coming with you.
444
00:15:03,088 --> 00:15:04,021
Thank you.
445
00:15:04,089 --> 00:15:05,556
Another martini?
446
00:15:05,624 --> 00:15:07,724
Skye's excited to be working with Jamal.
447
00:15:07,793 --> 00:15:09,927
She admires the way he uses his music
448
00:15:09,995 --> 00:15:12,596
to express what's on his
mind and in his heart.
449
00:15:12,665 --> 00:15:14,965
Um, son, why don't you play
her what we've been working on?
450
00:15:15,034 --> 00:15:17,301
Absolutely.
451
00:15:25,277 --> 00:15:29,546
♪ 'Cause you're so supernatural ♪
452
00:15:29,615 --> 00:15:33,450
♪ So unpredictable ♪
453
00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:38,989

♪ And I won't be blind... ♪
456
00:15:44,863 --> 00:15:47,631
What's wrong?
457
00:15:47,700 --> 00:15:49,299
Um, I...
458
00:15:49,368 --> 00:15:52,202
when I asked to work with Lucious Lyon,
459
00:15:52,271 --> 00:15:53,971
I guess I
just expected...
460
00:15:54,039 --> 00:15:56,573
We were hoping for something edgier.
461
00:15:56,642 --> 00:15:59,309
Judith, you know this
business is like the Autobahn.
462
00:15:59,378 --> 00:16:00,844
I mean, if you don't stay in your lane,
463
00:16:00,913 --> 00:16:02,245
you gonna crash and burn.
464
00:16:02,314 --> 00:16:05,382
And, Skye, your lane has
always been girl-power pop.
465
00:16:05,451 --> 00:16:07,718
And you're brilliant in that lane.
466
00:16:07,786 --> 00:16:09,486
That's why you got five ASAs
467
00:16:09,555 --> 00:16:10,721
on your mantle.
468
00:16:10,789 --> 00:16:12,789
Um... Dad...
469
00:16:12,858 --> 00:16:14,925
you want to show Judith
your new Mickalene Thomas?
470
00:16:14,994 --> 00:16:17,294
Oh, yeah. Ooh, I love her work.
471
00:16:17,363 --> 00:16:19,830
Come on. Please.
472
00:16:19,898 --> 00:16:22,432
Got a new one, I just
got about two weeks ago.
473
00:16:22,501 --> 00:16:23,700
Wow.
474
00:16:25,004 --> 00:16:26,670
What's up?
475
00:16:26,739 --> 00:16:28,071
Talk to me.
476
00:16:28,140 --> 00:16:29,906
It's a nice song, Jamal.
477
00:16:29,975 --> 00:16:33,844
It's just, that's not
where I want to go next.
478
00:16:33,912 --> 00:16:36,113
Yeah, I remember when you
recorded "Look Around,"
479
00:16:36,181 --> 00:16:38,382
and your label wouldn't let you release it.
480
00:16:38,450 --> 00:16:41,184
That was, like, some stupid demo I did,
481
00:16:41,253 --> 00:16:42,653
so why do you know that?
482
00:16:42,721 --> 00:16:44,087
I told you I was your superfan.
483
00:16:44,156 --> 00:16:45,522
I wasn't joking about that.
484
00:16:45,591 --> 00:16:47,524
No, obviously no. Come on now.
485
00:16:47,593 --> 00:16:49,026
You're serious? Yes, very.
486
00:16:49,094 --> 00:16:50,327
And by the way, it was not stupid.
487
00:16:50,396 --> 00:16:51,395
It was actually really hot.
488
00:16:51,463 --> 00:16:53,530
I loved it. Thank you.
489
00:16:53,599 --> 00:16:54,698
Why don't you just, I don't know...
490
00:16:54,767 --> 00:16:56,066
tell me what's in your head?
491
00:16:56,135 --> 00:16:57,501
Maybe we could write
something new together.
492
00:16:57,569 --> 00:17:00,837
I would love that.
493
00:17:03,452 --> 00:17:04,271
I cannot get over
494
00:17:04,297 --> 00:17:06,476
how good you're doing,
Cookie.
495
00:17:06,545 --> 00:17:08,227
Who would've thought two cellies like us
496
00:17:08,258 --> 00:17:09,891
flipping it around on the outside?
497
00:17:09,959 --> 00:17:11,392
You two were in prison together?
498
00:17:11,461 --> 00:17:12,727
Oh, yeah. I did a dime
499
00:17:12,795 --> 00:17:14,061
of my 17 with this woman right here,
500
00:17:14,130 --> 00:17:15,296
and I ain't ashamed. That's right.
501
00:17:15,365 --> 00:17:16,764
Your sister got me through
502
00:17:16,833 --> 00:17:18,466
a whole lot of hell up in there.
503
00:17:18,535 --> 00:17:20,067
You know, I owe you, Cookie.
504
00:17:20,136 --> 00:17:21,168
Nah. I do.
505
00:17:21,237 --> 00:17:22,403
All them times you covered for me
506
00:17:22,472 --> 00:17:23,471
with Lady Athena?
507
00:17:23,540 --> 00:17:25,273
That was the warden. Yeah, that bitch.
508
00:17:25,341 --> 00:17:26,674
I didn't think it was Greek literature.
509
00:17:26,743 --> 00:17:29,844
You know, those girls miss you, Cook.
510
00:17:29,913 --> 00:17:31,679
Every time they write
me, they ask about you.
511
00:17:31,748 --> 00:17:33,981
You know Jezzy? Ah!
512
00:17:34,050 --> 00:17:35,516
Oh, she misses you like a limb, Cookie.
513
00:17:35,585 --> 00:17:36,918
Yeah, I don't miss that hell house,
514
00:17:36,986 --> 00:17:38,920
but I sure miss those
girls; my girls; those women.
515
00:17:38,988 --> 00:17:41,656
Yeah. Yeah, they were
like true sisters to me.
516
00:17:41,724 --> 00:17:42,924
Mm!
517
00:17:42,992 --> 00:17:45,593
You know what would mean
the world to them, Cookie?
518
00:17:45,662 --> 00:17:47,762
Family Day's next week.
519
00:17:47,830 --> 00:17:49,497
Why don't you show up, do
a little show at Wallace?
520
00:17:49,566 --> 00:17:51,499
Oh, I can't. I can't, I'm sorry.
521
00:17:51,568 --> 00:17:53,501
I'm-I'm throwing this cookout in the city.
522
00:17:53,570 --> 00:17:55,002
You should come, it's...
523
00:17:55,071 --> 00:17:56,837
Carol!
524
00:17:56,906 --> 00:17:58,005
Carol!
525
00:17:58,074 --> 00:17:59,407
Oh, my God!
526
00:17:59,475 --> 00:18:01,175
Get your hand from around my sister!
527
00:18:01,244 --> 00:18:02,944
Before I break it! Go, go!
528
00:18:03,012 --> 00:18:04,211
Uh-uh-uh...
Carol... No, no, no!
529
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,446
Uh-uh-uh, no! No!
No, no, no, no!
530
00:18:05,515 --> 00:18:07,615
Carol, Carol, look, we have been looking
531
00:18:07,684 --> 00:18:10,284
for you all over the city for two days now.
532
00:18:10,353 --> 00:18:11,719
It ain't been no two days.
533
00:18:11,788 --> 00:18:13,087
Yes it has!
534
00:18:13,156 --> 00:18:14,455
And look at you, you look a mess!
535
00:18:14,524 --> 00:18:15,790
What have you been using?
536
00:18:15,858 --> 00:18:16,657
Come on, get in the car.
537
00:18:16,726 --> 00:18:18,659
What...?
Wait! What?
538
00:18:18,728 --> 00:18:20,728
Just wait. What?!
539
00:18:23,066 --> 00:18:25,066
That's nasty.
540
00:18:29,706 --> 00:18:31,038
Would you come on, nasty?
541
00:18:31,107 --> 00:18:34,008
Look, I ain't going
nowhere with you, Cookie.
542
00:18:34,077 --> 00:18:36,310
Unless it's to go get something to eat.
543
00:18:36,379 --> 00:18:39,180
If you don't get your
stinking ass in this car now...
544
00:18:39,248 --> 00:18:41,015
After you.
545
00:18:41,084 --> 00:18:43,584
She vomited on me.
546
00:18:43,653 --> 00:18:45,019
Yeah, I saw that.
547
00:18:45,088 --> 00:18:47,722
♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah... ♪
548
00:18:47,790 --> 00:18:48,990
♪ Yeah... ♪
549
00:18:51,694 --> 00:18:53,394
Thank you, Betty.
550
00:18:53,463 --> 00:18:54,762
Oh, oh, no, that's okay.
551
00:18:54,831 --> 00:18:56,063
I don't need you to pay for me.
552
00:18:56,132 --> 00:18:58,099
I wasn't planning on paying for you.
553
00:18:59,202 --> 00:19:00,801
Let's talk.
554
00:19:00,870 --> 00:19:02,803
Carol, your kids are safe with me and Danny
555
00:19:02,872 --> 00:19:05,072
in Blue Bell, but they
are worried sick about you.
556
00:19:05,141 --> 00:19:07,742
Girl, you need a break from Philly.
557
00:19:07,810 --> 00:19:08,809
You can come with me.
558
00:19:08,878 --> 00:19:10,911
All right? Clear your head.
559
00:19:10,980 --> 00:19:12,113
There's good schools out there.
560
00:19:12,181 --> 00:19:13,280
Your kids, they will love it.
561
00:19:13,349 --> 00:19:15,349
Nah, she's coming with me. What?
562
00:19:15,418 --> 00:19:17,451
So she can end up like this again?
563
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:18,619
Candace, please don't start it
564
00:19:18,688 --> 00:19:21,455
with your bougie,
coupon-shopping-ass.
565
00:19:21,524 --> 00:19:23,257
Loretha, stop.
566
00:19:23,326 --> 00:19:24,592
I'm sick of you
trying to... what?
567
00:19:24,661 --> 00:19:26,160
I'm sick of you calling
me by my government name.
568
00:19:26,229 --> 00:19:27,828
Um, may I please excuse the both of y'all?
569
00:19:27,897 --> 00:19:29,864
Damn, I-I can make own decisions,
570
00:19:29,932 --> 00:19:31,699
Thank you. Well, you doing a bang-up job.
571
00:19:31,768 --> 00:19:32,833
Fine.
572
00:19:32,902 --> 00:19:34,035
Shut up.
573
00:19:34,103 --> 00:19:35,703
Which one you gonna choose?
574
00:19:35,772 --> 00:19:36,604
What?!
575
00:19:36,673 --> 00:19:39,807
Me... or Cookie?
576
00:19:44,781 --> 00:19:48,215
What's gonna happen to my
kids if I go to New York?
577
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,654
I'll keep them.
578
00:19:53,723 --> 00:19:56,123
Until you get yourself together.
579
00:19:56,192 --> 00:19:58,559
Then I'm going with Cookie.
580
00:19:58,628 --> 00:19:59,827
Well, I guess Cookie
581
00:19:59,896 --> 00:20:02,830
ain't all that bad if she coming with me.
582
00:20:02,899 --> 00:20:04,999
You know what, Candace?
583
00:20:05,068 --> 00:20:07,001
Why don't you just keep
sipping on that Hater-Ade
584
00:20:07,070 --> 00:20:09,170
while I got to the bathroom?
585
00:20:09,238 --> 00:20:11,138
Hmm!
586
00:20:11,207 --> 00:20:12,573
You two deserve each other
587
00:20:12,642 --> 00:20:14,842
for the rest of your miserable lives.
588
00:20:14,911 --> 00:20:16,744
You ain't ever happy.
589
00:20:16,813 --> 00:20:19,080
If only she knew what you did
590
00:20:19,148 --> 00:20:21,148
while she was away in prison.
591
00:20:21,217 --> 00:20:24,485
Wouldn't be such a Sister Sledge reunion,
592
00:20:24,554 --> 00:20:26,287
now, would it?
593
00:20:26,355 --> 00:20:27,822
Hm.
594
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:31,992
A'ight, I'm here.
595
00:20:32,061 --> 00:20:33,994
What you want?
596
00:20:34,063 --> 00:20:36,664
What, I can't congratulate
my son on a job well done?
597
00:20:38,167 --> 00:20:40,801
It was very clever what you
did at the freestyle battle.
598
00:20:42,505 --> 00:20:44,705
I don't know if you know this yet, but, um,
599
00:20:44,774 --> 00:20:46,574
I'm about to acquire Swiftstream,
600
00:20:46,642 --> 00:20:49,143
a music streaming service.
601
00:20:49,212 --> 00:20:51,479
Yeah, I know, I heard
it out on the streets.
602
00:20:51,547 --> 00:20:53,314
It's gonna be worth a fortune.
603
00:20:53,382 --> 00:20:55,683
Now, initially I intended
to leave it to you
604
00:20:55,752 --> 00:20:57,918
and your brothers' names, but are you sure
605
00:20:57,987 --> 00:21:01,288
you want to drop the last name Lyon?
606
00:21:01,357 --> 00:21:02,890
What do you care what name I use?
607
00:21:02,959 --> 00:21:04,325
You didn't want me to be your son.
608
00:21:05,962 --> 00:21:08,963
Hakeem, you put on quite a
show disowning my last name.
609
00:21:09,031 --> 00:21:12,566
But yet, you out on the
street trading on it,
610
00:21:12,635 --> 00:21:15,369
making a living off of it.
611
00:21:15,438 --> 00:21:18,105
Lyon Dynasty, my black ass.
612
00:21:18,174 --> 00:21:21,976
Now, I'm gonna give you one last chance
613
00:21:22,044 --> 00:21:24,111
to sign with Empire
614
00:21:24,180 --> 00:21:26,580
and allow you to post a video
615
00:21:26,649 --> 00:21:28,616
saying you keeping the last name Lyon
616
00:21:28,684 --> 00:21:31,252
and I'll make you a full
partner with your brothers
617
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,621
in Swiftstream.
618
00:21:33,689 --> 00:21:36,257
How I know you're gonna keep your promise?
619
00:21:36,325 --> 00:21:38,192
I've always rewarded loyalty.
620
00:21:38,261 --> 00:21:39,894
Talk to Andre.
621
00:21:39,962 --> 00:21:42,663
I just bought him and
Rhonda a six-bedroom mansion
622
00:21:42,732 --> 00:21:44,665
out in Long Island.
623
00:21:44,734 --> 00:21:46,700
Two and a half acres.
624
00:21:46,769 --> 00:21:48,536
What do you want?
625
00:21:53,943 --> 00:21:56,110

sorority girl breakup songs,
639
00:22:50,650 --> 00:22:53,651
and, like your father said,
I need to stay in my lane.
640
00:22:53,719 --> 00:22:57,621
Well, I think that sounds like some...
641
00:22:57,690 --> 00:22:59,790
some wack-ass executive talk.

it's deep.

00:23:04,530 --> 00:23:05,796
Beautiful.
645
00:23:05,865 --> 00:23:07,464
It feels like you, Skye.
646
00:23:08,935 --> 00:23:10,467
I envy you, man.
647
00:23:10,536 --> 00:23:11,969
Why you envy me, woman?
648
00:23:13,739 --> 00:23:15,272
'Cause, you know, you...
649
00:23:15,341 --> 00:23:17,341
you're in charge of your identity.
650
00:23:17,410 --> 00:23:19,843
You know, you got to define who you are,
651
00:23:19,912 --> 00:23:21,111
and people love you for it,
652
00:23:21,180 --> 00:23:23,080
and, man,
653
00:23:23,149 --> 00:23:26,050
if I sang my whole truth,
my fans would turn on me.
654
00:23:26,118 --> 00:23:27,585
I guarantee you they wouldn't.
655
00:23:27,653 --> 00:23:29,820
Yeah, because they just want you in a box.
656
00:23:29,889 --> 00:23:31,555
You know, they want you to be in, like,
657
00:23:31,624 --> 00:23:32,690
you know, you're black or you're white,
658
00:23:32,758 --> 00:23:33,791
or you're pop or you're soul.
659
00:23:33,859 --> 00:23:35,225
You know, just fit in that little...
660
00:23:35,294 --> 00:23:36,860
Yeah, but throw that
box away. Burn that box.
661
00:23:36,929 --> 00:23:38,662
You know what I'm
saying? You don't need it.
662
00:23:38,731 --> 00:23:40,731
You know why I really
want to work with you?
663
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,334
'Cause, um, you're my super fan.
664
00:23:43,402 --> 00:23:45,836

got all this amazingness
669
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,181
that you think that you got
to keep hidden. You don't.
670
00:23:57,249 --> 00:24:00,250
I really want to help you bust out of that.
671
00:24:00,319 --> 00:24:01,752

I guess I'll just have to fill it up
691
00:25:01,781 --> 00:25:02,846
with a bunch of Lyon babies.
692
00:25:05,851 --> 00:25:07,885
Are-are you okay?
693
00:25:07,953 --> 00:25:09,219
Oh, no, no, no, I'm fine.
694
00:25:09,288 --> 00:25:10,754
I just, um...
695
00:25:10,823 --> 00:25:11,789
What? What's wrong?
696
00:25:12,825 --> 00:25:14,725
I, uh,
697
00:25:14,794 --> 00:25:17,428
think I'm in love,
698
00:25:17,496 --> 00:25:18,896
and I'm ashamed.
699
00:25:18,964 --> 00:25:20,831
Ashamed? Why-why...
700
00:25:20,900 --> 00:25:23,000
Oh, you're not still in
love with Lucious, are you?
701
00:25:23,069 --> 00:25:25,235
Oh, no, no, no. God, no.
702
00:25:25,304 --> 00:25:26,937
That ship has sailed and sunk.
703
00:25:27,006 --> 00:25:28,439
No, it's, um,
704
00:25:28,507 --> 00:25:30,107
someone you don't know.
705
00:25:30,176 --> 00:25:31,842
It's another musician.
706
00:25:31,911 --> 00:25:33,577
Um, we were involved
707
00:25:33,646 --> 00:25:35,012
for some time,
708
00:25:35,081 --> 00:25:36,914
and it got really complicated.
709
00:25:36,982 --> 00:25:38,515
Mm-hmm. And then I was fine,
710
00:25:38,584 --> 00:25:40,884
Mm-hmm. and then I heard a song
that he wrote the other day,
711
00:25:40,953 --> 00:25:42,986
and then everything just kind of...
712
00:25:43,055 --> 00:25:44,922
came back.
713
00:25:46,292 --> 00:25:49,193
Did I ever tell you the ponytail story?
714
00:25:49,261 --> 00:25:50,427
Uh-uh.
715
00:25:50,496 --> 00:25:51,261
Alyssa Shepard?
716
00:25:51,330 --> 00:25:52,429
No, who's that?
717
00:25:52,498 --> 00:25:54,364
Oh, she was just this cow
718
00:25:54,433 --> 00:25:56,734
that tried to take Andre
away from me in college.
719
00:25:58,204 --> 00:25:59,770
So one night, I, um,
720
00:25:59,839 --> 00:26:01,338
snuck into her dorm room,
721
00:26:01,407 --> 00:26:04,575
and I cut off her ponytail
while she was sleeping.
722
00:26:04,643 --> 00:26:07,211
And I texted her a
picture of it the next day,
723
00:26:07,279 --> 00:26:08,912
and I said, "I will continue cutting
724
00:26:08,981 --> 00:26:10,948
if you do not leave Andre alone."
725
00:26:11,016 --> 00:26:12,015
So what-what happened?
726
00:26:12,084 --> 00:26:13,083
I mean, did she, did it work?
727
00:26:13,152 --> 00:26:14,551
Well, I'm here, aren't I?
728
00:26:14,620 --> 00:26:16,553
I'm just saying that if you find somebody
729
00:26:16,622 --> 00:26:18,956
that's worth fighting for,
then that's what you have to do,
730
00:26:19,024 --> 00:26:21,125
and take down anyone that gets in your way.
731
00:26:21,193 --> 00:26:23,093
You know?
732
00:26:43,182 --> 00:26:44,882
Mmm.
733
00:26:44,950 --> 00:26:46,950
Ooh, that feels so good.
734
00:26:47,019 --> 00:26:50,654
Baby, listen, tonight I got
to deal with my sister, okay?
735
00:26:50,723 --> 00:26:53,423
But tomorrow, I am all yours.
736
00:26:53,492 --> 00:26:55,092
You promise?
737
00:26:56,428 --> 00:26:57,528
Lucious, what the hell
738
00:26:57,596 --> 00:26:58,695
are you doing here?
739
00:26:58,764 --> 00:27:00,063
Taking you up on your offer.
740
00:27:00,132 --> 00:27:02,065
No. What do you want?
741
00:27:02,134 --> 00:27:03,801
Look, I need you to...
742
00:27:03,869 --> 00:27:07,104
sign over your rights to my early songs.
743
00:27:07,173 --> 00:27:09,173
I've got an opportunity
to raise the capital
744
00:27:09,241 --> 00:27:11,275
necessary to buy Swiftstream.
745
00:27:11,343 --> 00:27:13,377
You want me to sign over my rights
746
00:27:13,445 --> 00:27:16,513
to your songs that I
produced, that we produced?
747
00:27:16,582 --> 00:27:17,948
Are you stupid?
748
00:27:18,017 --> 00:27:19,983
No, baby, this is a big deal for Empire,
749
00:27:20,052 --> 00:27:23,487
and you and the boys
are still shareholders,
750
00:27:23,556 --> 00:27:25,155
so it's a win-win for everybody.
751
00:27:25,224 --> 00:27:27,758
You know, before we had
two nickels to rub together,
752
00:27:27,827 --> 00:27:29,326
all we had was the music,
753
00:27:29,395 --> 00:27:31,762
and if give that up, we're bankrupt.
754
00:27:31,831 --> 00:27:33,664
Why did we do all of this, Lucious?
755
00:27:33,732 --> 00:27:34,965
For stocks and bonds?
756
00:27:35,034 --> 00:27:36,300
No, you are missing the bigger picture.
757
00:27:36,368 --> 00:27:37,334
No.
758
00:27:37,403 --> 00:27:38,836
I see the bigger picture, Lucious.
759
00:27:38,904 --> 00:27:42,072
In fact, I'm the only one of us that does.
760
00:27:42,141 --> 00:27:45,008
That's why I'm telling your stupid ass no.
761
00:27:45,077 --> 00:27:47,544
You want your Swifty-streamy,
you're gonna have to
762
00:27:47,613 --> 00:27:49,713
get it some other kind of way. Hey, boo.
763
00:27:49,782 --> 00:27:52,182
I'm sorry it took so long;
there were no clean glasses. I...
764
00:27:52,251 --> 00:27:53,383
Oh.
765
00:27:53,452 --> 00:27:54,918
I didn't realize we had company.
766
00:27:54,987 --> 00:27:56,220
I didn't, either.
767
00:27:56,288 --> 00:27:58,689
Laz Delgado.
768
00:27:58,757 --> 00:27:59,957
Lucious Lyon.
769
00:28:00,025 --> 00:28:02,192
And he was just leaving.
770
00:28:09,168 --> 00:28:11,268
It's nice to see you sleeping
your way to the bottom.
771
00:28:16,208 --> 00:28:19,209

Anika here, man.

Anika, what you doing here?
787
00:28:57,315 --> 00:28:59,248
I'm just here to join the party.
788
00:28:59,317 --> 00:29:01,784
I assume my invitation
got lost in the mail.
789
00:29:01,853 --> 00:29:04,754
Do I know you from somewhere?
790
00:29:04,822 --> 00:29:07,523
No, I doubt it, honey,
unless you bus tables at Nobu.
791
00:29:07,592 --> 00:29:10,593
Chill out, Anika.
792
00:29:10,661 --> 00:29:12,862
You know, I saw your
rehearsal online, Hakeem.
793
00:29:12,930 --> 00:29:15,364
Um... wasn't that the song
that you wrote for Camilla?
794
00:29:15,433 --> 00:29:17,133
Who?
795
00:29:17,201 --> 00:29:19,368
It's time for you to leave, Anika.
796
00:29:19,437 --> 00:29:21,637
You know, it was a great song.
797
00:29:21,706 --> 00:29:24,140
But now it's missing something.
798
00:29:24,208 --> 00:29:26,375
You know, I feel like...
799
00:29:26,444 --> 00:29:28,144
it needs a real singer.
800
00:29:28,212 --> 00:29:31,047
A woman, not some Nuyorican wannabe
801
00:29:31,115 --> 00:29:32,381
from the South Bronx. Excuse me?
802
00:29:32,450 --> 00:29:33,983
Hakeem, what is she talking about?
803
00:29:34,052 --> 00:29:36,752
Your Jenny from the Block
jump-off lives in a hovel
804
00:29:36,821 --> 00:29:39,422
with seven brothers and sisters.
805
00:29:41,659 --> 00:29:43,626
You could do so much better, baby.
806
00:29:43,694 --> 00:29:46,729
What are you doing? Anika!
807
00:29:51,235 --> 00:29:52,334
Hey, Pop.
808
00:29:52,403 --> 00:29:53,569
You got a minute?
809
00:29:53,638 --> 00:29:55,571
No, I'm working something out, Dre.
810
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,406
Bowie Bonds idea's not gonna work.
811
00:29:58,643 --> 00:30:00,843
Why in the hell not?
812
00:30:00,912 --> 00:30:03,345
Dre, I asked you to find me another option
813
00:30:03,414 --> 00:30:05,347
beyond your mama's signature.
814
00:30:05,416 --> 00:30:07,850
I know that, I understand that,
and I tried. There's no way
815
00:30:07,919 --> 00:30:09,118
to move forward with Mom holding on
816
00:30:09,187 --> 00:30:10,186
to her share of the music rights.
817
00:30:10,254 --> 00:30:11,353
Wha... So that's what they
818
00:30:11,422 --> 00:30:12,521
taught you at Wharton?
819
00:30:12,590 --> 00:30:13,856
You-you try something,
820
00:30:13,925 --> 00:30:16,025
but if you hit a brick wall, you just stop.
821
00:30:16,094 --> 00:30:18,627
Wharton taught me to find solutions, Pop.
822
00:30:18,696 --> 00:30:21,697
And I found you one.
823
00:30:21,766 --> 00:30:23,766
Leverage Empire's other assets.
824
00:30:23,835 --> 00:30:26,702
If we sell off the fashion
825
00:30:26,771 --> 00:30:28,804
or-or the sports merchandising
or the alcohol divisions,
826
00:30:28,873 --> 00:30:31,674
Pop, we can do this.
Just got to have faith.
827
00:30:31,742 --> 00:30:33,709
Oh, no, no, no, that's not acceptable.
828
00:30:33,778 --> 00:30:35,945
Look, son, the moment you start selling off
829
00:30:36,013 --> 00:30:39,348
pieces of Empire, we're
no longer an empire.
830
00:30:39,417 --> 00:30:41,350
I'd rather die than do that.
831
00:30:42,553 --> 00:30:45,054
Yes, sir.
832
00:30:45,123 --> 00:30:46,555
I'll find a way.
833
00:30:49,293 --> 00:30:52,061
Crazy in here
today. So what's happening?
834
00:30:52,130 --> 00:30:54,063
Jamal's rehearsing for
his video shoot and then...
835
00:30:54,132 --> 00:30:56,031
Yeah, and the director
is trying to get some
836
00:30:56,100 --> 00:30:57,867
behind the scenes footage of the rehearsal.
837
00:30:57,935 --> 00:30:59,935
But this whole
commercial... this is just
838
00:31:00,004 --> 00:31:02,238
a part of the plan that I have for Jamal.
839
00:31:03,374 --> 00:31:04,807
You're the other part of it.
840
00:31:06,444 --> 00:31:08,577
I don't think I can
stay in my lane, Lucious.
841
00:31:08,646 --> 00:31:09,678
What do you mean?
842
00:31:09,747 --> 00:31:11,046
When you first started,
843
00:31:11,115 --> 00:31:12,248
you blazed a new trail.
844
00:31:12,316 --> 00:31:13,582
You were out of the box.
845
00:31:13,651 --> 00:31:16,752
And that's what Jamal is doing, and...
846
00:31:16,821 --> 00:31:20,389
that's why I want to work with both of you.
847
00:31:20,458 --> 00:31:23,092
Are you thinking about a new lane?
848
00:31:25,763 --> 00:31:27,196
How we doing, Lee?
849
00:31:27,265 --> 00:31:29,598
Excited, excited.
850
00:31:29,667 --> 00:31:31,767
Let's get this Pepsi
thing on the road. Good.
851
00:31:31,836 --> 00:31:33,569
Oh, by the way,
852
00:31:33,638 --> 00:31:36,105
did you talk to Jamal about, um,
853
00:31:36,174 --> 00:31:38,107
- my concept regarding...
- I did.
854
00:31:38,176 --> 00:31:39,542
- father and son
ideas, because... - I did.
855
00:31:39,610 --> 00:31:42,611
I did. I did. And?
856
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,180
Uh, I'm gonna do something different.
857
00:31:44,248 --> 00:31:45,281
Different how?
858
00:31:45,349 --> 00:31:48,184
Lucious, you represent the past. This kid,
859
00:31:48,252 --> 00:31:49,952
he's the future... that's
the reason why I signed up
860
00:31:50,021 --> 00:31:51,020
for this thing, so we're gonna
861
00:31:51,088 --> 00:31:52,121
do something completely different,
862
00:31:52,190 --> 00:31:53,556
you know... Look, um, why don't we
863
00:31:53,624 --> 00:31:55,191
go by my trailer and-and talk about it?
864
00:31:55,259 --> 00:31:56,892
We'll go by craft
service... Oh, no. No, no!
865
00:31:56,961 --> 00:31:58,294
Then we'll talk. No, no. No, no.
866
00:31:58,362 --> 00:32:00,229
- Jamal. Have you...
- Yes?
867
00:32:00,298 --> 00:32:01,730

we'll be able to buy all those

The way I see it, I took Empire public

so that I could lead the
music industry into the future.

What's up, Hakeem? If I would have known
926
00:33:55,425 --> 00:33:57,225
you're gonna be here, I'd
have brought you one, too.
927

Did I ask?

Is everything okay?

to the change venue for the Cookout?
931
00:34:06,269 --> 00:34:07,736
I found a better place.
932
00:34:07,804 --> 00:34:09,571
Okay? It's in the Bronx, it's bigger.
933
00:34:09,639 --> 00:34:11,106
No! It's way better.
934
00:34:11,174 --> 00:34:12,707
I'm not going to the Bronx.
935
00:34:12,776 --> 00:34:14,709
Look, Cookie, just hear me
out on this before you say no.
936
00:34:14,778 --> 00:34:16,177
I already said it.
937
00:34:16,246 --> 00:34:18,980
Yeah, see, 'cause I already
sold out Rock Steady Park.
938
00:34:19,049 --> 00:34:20,582
And I already spent a grip
939
00:34:20,650 --> 00:34:22,417
on marketing and merchandising.
940
00:34:22,486 --> 00:34:23,818
I'm not moving it.
941
00:34:23,887 --> 00:34:25,820
And Big Heavy better not
try to come back at us.
942
00:34:25,889 --> 00:34:27,889
He better not be, his bitch ass.
943
00:34:27,958 --> 00:34:29,457
So, why was he here, man?
944
00:34:31,495 --> 00:34:34,796
Look, Cookie, you got
to listen to me, okay?
945
00:34:34,865 --> 00:34:36,765
Just trust me.
946
00:34:36,833 --> 00:34:38,566
I want to trust you, but
you making it kind of hard.
947
00:34:38,635 --> 00:34:39,734
Forgive me
948
00:34:39,803 --> 00:34:41,035
for being so rude, but
949
00:34:41,104 --> 00:34:42,070
I just...
950
00:34:42,139 --> 00:34:43,371
Something about pretty boy.
951
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,040
I just couldn't get you off my mind.
952
00:34:46,109 --> 00:34:47,675
So I looked you up, Delgado.
953
00:34:47,744 --> 00:34:49,611
You one of them Bully boys, ain't you?
954
00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:51,045
Lucious, what are you
955
00:34:51,114 --> 00:34:52,113
talking about?
956
00:34:52,182 --> 00:34:53,615
125th Street Bulls.
957
00:34:53,683 --> 00:34:55,383
They run a little
958
00:34:55,452 --> 00:34:58,820
petty scam of extorting young rappers and
959
00:34:58,889 --> 00:35:00,421
making they mamas pay for it.
960
00:35:00,490 --> 00:35:01,623
Mom, them dudes
961
00:35:01,691 --> 00:35:03,625
that snatched me had a bull on they back.
962
00:35:03,693 --> 00:35:04,993
Does he have one?
963
00:35:12,335 --> 00:35:13,768
Like this?
964
00:35:13,837 --> 00:35:16,404
I got this, boy.
965
00:35:16,473 --> 00:35:17,939
Ooh.
966
00:35:19,509 --> 00:35:23,011
Cookie, listen to me.
967
00:35:23,079 --> 00:35:25,947
Look, when this started,
this was just a gig.
968
00:35:26,016 --> 00:35:29,751
I had no idea I was gonna
fall in love with you.
969
00:35:29,820 --> 00:35:30,819
Mm-mm.
970
00:35:30,887 --> 00:35:34,022
It was real.
971
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:36,891
I just need more time.
972
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,927
I was trying to fix this.
973
00:35:38,995 --> 00:35:42,831
Hakeem...
974
00:35:42,899 --> 00:35:44,899
let's go.
975
00:36:21,204 --> 00:36:22,871
Hi. I'm happy you called.
976
00:36:22,939 --> 00:36:24,272
I take it you're not
977
00:36:24,341 --> 00:36:26,040
too mad about last night? Listen, Anika,
978
00:36:26,109 --> 00:36:27,775
you got a serious problem.
979
00:36:27,844 --> 00:36:29,844
Hakeem, I don't have the problem.
980
00:36:29,913 --> 00:36:31,312
You have the problem.
981
00:36:31,381 --> 00:36:34,816
Clearly, you have a problem
being open and honest about us.
982
00:36:34,885 --> 00:36:36,251
Us?! There's no us.
983
00:36:36,319 --> 00:36:37,886
We friends. We hooked up a couple times.
984
00:36:37,954 --> 00:36:40,655
That's it... Stop fighting it, Hakeem!
985
00:36:40,724 --> 00:36:43,391
It is so clear that you love me.
986
00:36:43,460 --> 00:36:45,260
I don't love you, so just get it
987
00:36:45,328 --> 00:36:46,928
through your damn head! Understand?!
988
00:36:46,997 --> 00:36:50,665
I understand that every time
you are in need, you come to me.
989
00:36:50,734 --> 00:36:52,333
Me!
990
00:36:52,402 --> 00:36:55,336
Don't you see that?
991
00:36:55,405 --> 00:36:58,273
So what are you scared of, Hakeem? Lucious?
992
00:36:58,341 --> 00:37:00,308
Because Lucious was the
same one that came to me
993
00:37:00,377 --> 00:37:02,944
and said that he was gonna
let you have a run at me.
994
00:37:03,013 --> 00:37:04,479
Cookie is a little trickier,
995
00:37:04,547 --> 00:37:06,748
but once she understands that I am...
996
00:37:06,816 --> 00:37:08,349
Stop! Stop talking about my family!
997
00:37:08,418 --> 00:37:10,285
Stop talking about my mother and father!
998
00:37:10,353 --> 00:37:11,719
You will never be one of us.
999
00:37:11,788 --> 00:37:13,121
You won't ever be a Lyon.
1000
00:37:13,189 --> 00:37:15,657
Ever!
1001
00:37:31,508 --> 00:37:33,141
Hey, I'll go get a dust pan.
1002
00:37:33,209 --> 00:37:34,609
Leave it alone.
1003
00:37:34,678 --> 00:37:36,277
You want to talk about it, sis?
1004
00:37:36,346 --> 00:37:37,779
No, I do not.
1005
00:37:39,182 --> 00:37:41,282
Cookie, listen, I know that
I've been a pain in the ass,
1006
00:37:41,351 --> 00:37:42,550
but I'm really trying to...
1007
00:37:42,619 --> 00:37:44,919
Carol, you got to go to rehab.
1008
00:37:44,988 --> 00:37:46,220
No!
1009
00:37:46,289 --> 00:37:47,722
Yes. Yes. No.
1010
00:37:47,791 --> 00:37:50,224
What are you talk...? No, I'm
not going to rehab. I got this!
1011
00:37:50,293 --> 00:37:52,026
You're an addict.
1012
00:37:52,095 --> 00:37:55,129
You've been one your whole life. Say it.
1013
00:37:55,198 --> 00:37:58,967
Cook, what happened
with Jermel is our fault.
1014
00:37:59,035 --> 00:38:01,002
And it is really messin' with me
1015
00:38:01,071 --> 00:38:02,136
on the inside.
1016
00:38:02,205 --> 00:38:05,974
Carol, it's messing with me, too, okay?
1017
00:38:06,042 --> 00:38:07,742
But the way you handle it?
1018
00:38:07,811 --> 00:38:12,313
I should have never brought you into this.
1019
00:38:12,382 --> 00:38:14,382
None of it.
1020
00:38:16,853 --> 00:38:19,020
But you got excuses.
1021
00:38:19,089 --> 00:38:22,690
You got excuses, and I
don't care what you say.
1022
00:38:22,759 --> 00:38:25,126
If you keep going down
this rabbit hole, Carol,
1023
00:38:25,195 --> 00:38:26,928
you're gonna end up dead.
1024
00:38:26,997 --> 00:38:28,863
You are going to kill yourself,
1025
00:38:28,932 --> 00:38:30,898
and that I cannot have on my heart.
1026
00:38:30,967 --> 00:38:32,433
Do you understand?
1027
00:38:32,502 --> 00:38:35,770
You get yourself clean,
or you can't stay with me.

00:38:36,806 --> 00:38:39,040
