- Yes.

You know, a lot of women,

00:00:08,441 --> 00:00:09,606
they don't survive childbirth.

- Harper Scott.

It's not enough to be nominated.
I do want to win.

It's been a crazy year for my family
96
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:08,878
and there's been some doubters.

00:03:08,902 --> 00:03:11,113
I feel like to win would
be a big up to my fans.
98
00:03:11,137 --> 00:03:12,982
Talking about the
people who doubted you,
99
00:03:13,006 --> 00:03:15,184
you seemed like you were
poised for a ASA sweep
100
00:03:15,208 --> 00:03:16,886
till your father's video hit.
101
00:03:16,910 --> 00:03:19,121
That dude's comin' to take you out.
102
00:03:19,145 --> 00:03:21,724
Nah, man, maybe so, but, uh,
it's-it's not a boxing match.
103
00:03:21,748 --> 00:03:23,526
Well, maybe someone
should tell him that.
104
00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:25,027
Well, maybe someone should tell
the press to leave us alone
105
00:03:25,051 --> 00:03:26,496
- with the negative...
- Uh, you know what, you know what?
106
00:03:26,519 --> 00:03:28,230
I promise you this,
whatever those rumors
107
00:03:28,254 --> 00:03:29,698
you're hearing about my family,
108
00:03:29,722 --> 00:03:32,234
they're just that, baby, media lies.
109
00:03:32,258 --> 00:03:33,569
See, 'cause the Lyons, baby,
110
00:03:33,593 --> 00:03:34,904
we are closer, we are tighter than...
111
00:03:34,928 --> 00:03:36,505
The Manson Family.
112
00:03:36,529 --> 00:03:37,907
Don't listen to this bitch,
113
00:03:37,931 --> 00:03:39,575
She don't know what she's talking about.
114
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:42,178
Besides, we're more like the
black Partridge Family,
115
00:03:42,202 --> 00:03:43,613
you know?
116
00:03:43,636 --> 00:03:45,714
I do know what I'm talking about.
117
00:03:45,738 --> 00:03:47,383
Stop moping, boy.
118
00:03:47,407 --> 00:03:50,386
Lucious is doing exactly
what a big superstar does.
119
00:03:50,410 --> 00:03:52,421
And if you want to be bigger
than him, like you say you do...
120
00:03:52,445 --> 00:03:54,323
I will be bigger than
him, and I'm gonna win.
121
00:03:54,347 --> 00:03:56,058
But it's like this is just stupid,
122
00:03:56,082 --> 00:03:57,726
and he's so damn thirsty,
Ma, just coming with...
123
00:03:57,750 --> 00:04:00,229
Stop it.
124
00:04:00,253 --> 00:04:03,866
Now, Empire has a lot riding
on these ASAs, Jamal.
125
00:04:03,890 --> 00:04:07,203
We need to get that board to
officially reinstate Lucious,
126
00:04:07,227 --> 00:04:09,405
or I don't know who the hell
is going to run my company.
127
00:04:09,429 --> 00:04:10,940
So is this a best-man-win situation
128
00:04:10,964 --> 00:04:13,042
or a me-help-him situation?
129
00:04:13,066 --> 00:04:14,610
It's neither one, dummy.
130
00:04:14,634 --> 00:04:17,513
All right, Ma.
131
00:04:17,537 --> 00:04:19,949
Make sure that you don't get
caught up in him again.
132
00:04:21,374 --> 00:04:23,619
It's pretty rare for
a man with your rep,
133
00:04:23,643 --> 00:04:25,254
from your culture,
134
00:04:25,278 --> 00:04:27,256
to admit to having suffered
from childhood abuse.
135
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:29,859
Well, one of the wonderful things
136
00:04:29,883 --> 00:04:31,627
that I learned in making this video,
137
00:04:31,651 --> 00:04:32,928
is the fact that...
138
00:04:32,952 --> 00:04:35,865
the people with real courage are those
139
00:04:35,889 --> 00:04:38,267
who have suffered with mental illness.
140
00:04:38,291 --> 00:04:40,236
Oh, really? Well, I
don't think you realize
141
00:04:40,260 --> 00:04:41,737
there are more people in this room.
142
00:04:41,761 --> 00:04:42,938
Like ASA voters.
143
00:04:42,962 --> 00:04:44,106
Come on.
144
00:04:44,130 --> 00:04:45,307
I will see you soon.
145
00:04:45,331 --> 00:04:46,876
- Ten minutes... I'm sorry.
- Yes.
146
00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:48,410
Keep rolling.
147
00:04:48,434 --> 00:04:50,279
Hey, you're gonna have to
get your emotions in check.
148
00:04:50,303 --> 00:04:51,580
Harper happens to have the hottest blog
149
00:04:51,604 --> 00:04:53,048
in the music business,
150
00:04:53,072 --> 00:04:54,250
and if she could put me on the cover,
151
00:04:54,274 --> 00:04:55,451
man, that-that raises my odds.
152
00:04:55,475 --> 00:04:56,619
Watch it.
153
00:04:56,643 --> 00:04:59,722
It is disrespectful of you
and quite childish for you
154
00:04:59,746 --> 00:05:02,091
to try and put this on my emotions.
155
00:05:02,115 --> 00:05:05,294
What you're about to do is ruin the
truce you got going with Jamal.
156
00:05:05,318 --> 00:05:07,296
- What? If he can't handle the heat...
- Uh...
157
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,431
the boy should get out the kitchen.
158
00:05:08,454 --> 00:05:10,299
You get out the kitchen,
son, I got the better song.
159
00:05:10,323 --> 00:05:11,834
- Which one?
- My song, "Heavy."
160
00:05:11,858 --> 00:05:14,604
- Okay, hey, hey, y'all, hey.
- Which one? Thank you.
161
00:05:14,627 --> 00:05:16,472
Now that you're all liquored up,
162
00:05:16,496 --> 00:05:20,509
I know y'all have some questions for
the first family of music, so shoot.
163
00:05:20,533 --> 00:05:24,513
Now, I know he said it's not a boxing
match, but Jamal was the favorite
164
00:05:24,537 --> 00:05:29,318
on every list, so, I mean, isn't
this kind of like Balboa-Creed?
165
00:05:29,342 --> 00:05:31,587
Wait, wait. First and foremost,
166
00:05:31,611 --> 00:05:37,159
um, me and my son are not the
only people up for this award,
167
00:05:37,183 --> 00:05:39,829
but if this was a boxing
match, it would be more like
168
00:05:39,852 --> 00:05:42,531
Foreman in his prime versus De La Hoya.
169
00:05:42,555 --> 00:05:45,707
I'm just saying, I'm ready
to play, you ready to play?
170
00:05:48,645 --> 00:05:50,378
I was born to play.
171
00:05:51,915 --> 00:05:53,996
Let's play.

00:06:08,699 --> 00:06:10,826
Hey, Luc, can we, uh,
chop it up in private?
177
00:06:10,850 --> 00:06:14,396
Anything you need to say to me,
you can say around Skeletor.
178
00:06:14,420 --> 00:06:17,066
All them bones I done buried.
179
00:06:17,090 --> 00:06:18,567
Okeydokey.
180
00:06:18,591 --> 00:06:20,336
Well, Lucious, as you
officially don't know,
181
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,304
I have not been spying
on our board members.
182
00:06:22,328 --> 00:06:24,340
But if I was, I would tell you that
183
00:06:24,364 --> 00:06:26,308
a few members are pushing real hard
184
00:06:26,332 --> 00:06:27,743
to bring in a new CEO.
185
00:06:27,767 --> 00:06:28,844
Uh-uh.
186
00:06:28,868 --> 00:06:30,546
An outsider to run my company?
187
00:06:30,570 --> 00:06:31,953
Mmm, our company.
188
00:06:33,056 --> 00:06:34,650
Well, that ain't gonna happen.
189
00:06:34,674 --> 00:06:36,685
I don't know how many of these
white folks I'm gonna have to...
190
00:06:36,709 --> 00:06:39,421
Ah, Lucious, uh-uh.
191
00:06:39,445 --> 00:06:43,092
Not after two dead lesbos
and a strangled cat.
192
00:06:43,116 --> 00:06:44,560
I mean, listen to her, she's right.
193
00:06:44,584 --> 00:06:45,861
I mean, as much as it
would bring me joy,
194
00:06:45,885 --> 00:06:47,430
- it's not the right time for that.
- No.
195
00:06:47,453 --> 00:06:49,064
No.
196
00:06:49,088 --> 00:06:50,566
We got the shareholders
right where we want them,
197
00:06:50,590 --> 00:06:52,368
we just got to push.
198
00:06:52,392 --> 00:06:55,237
The way I see it, we got all
these cameras on us right now.
199
00:06:55,261 --> 00:06:56,939
Mm-hmm.
- Because of these ASAs.
200
00:06:56,963 --> 00:06:59,608
If they see my family's
united behind me,
201
00:06:59,632 --> 00:07:01,710
then it's the next logical
step for the board
202
00:07:01,734 --> 00:07:03,412
to reinstate me, right?
203
00:07:03,436 --> 00:07:05,047
Well, yeah, I'm having
a little flashback...
204
00:07:05,071 --> 00:07:06,949
I think we tried that a
couple times, all right?
205
00:07:06,973 --> 00:07:08,584
I mean, I don't want to be that guy,
206
00:07:08,608 --> 00:07:10,219
but do you really believe
you can get your three sons
207
00:07:10,243 --> 00:07:11,920
to rally behind Don Dada here?
208
00:07:11,944 --> 00:07:13,455
I mean, what's the odds?
209
00:07:13,479 --> 00:07:15,797
Well, they all need a whole
lot of hand-holding.
210
00:07:18,935 --> 00:07:20,229
Hey.
211
00:07:20,253 --> 00:07:22,965
Are you trying to save your company,
212
00:07:22,989 --> 00:07:25,674
or are you trying to catch an STD?
213
00:07:30,965 --> 00:07:33,409
Morning, Ma. Sorry I kept you waiting.
214
00:07:33,433 --> 00:07:34,877
Hmm, it's okay baby.
215
00:07:34,901 --> 00:07:37,246
I've been working the
phones all morning.
216
00:07:37,270 --> 00:07:41,717
The board wants to offer
Brigham Lang the CEO job.
217
00:07:41,741 --> 00:07:44,153
He knows how to run family brands.
218
00:07:44,177 --> 00:07:45,454
No. Uh-uh, Andre.
219
00:07:45,478 --> 00:07:46,622
We cannot go through that again.
220
00:07:46,646 --> 00:07:48,824
So let me guess.
221
00:07:48,848 --> 00:07:52,327
The family needs to
present a united front,
222
00:07:52,351 --> 00:07:54,830
and you want me to talk to my brothers
223
00:07:54,854 --> 00:07:57,166
and pretend it's not
coming from you, right?
224
00:07:57,190 --> 00:07:58,734
Exactly. Especially to Jamal.
225
00:07:58,758 --> 00:08:00,942
He thinks I'm sprung on Lucious.
226
00:08:01,978 --> 00:08:03,812
Are you?
227
00:08:06,742 --> 00:08:09,303
Never mind, doesn't matter.
228
00:08:09,327 --> 00:08:11,038
If you ask Jamal,
229
00:08:11,062 --> 00:08:13,106
he'll think you're letting
Lucious manipulate you.
230
00:08:13,130 --> 00:08:15,096
- Exactly.
- I'll make it happen.
231
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,081
And I'll put something together.
232
00:08:17,105 --> 00:08:19,717
Really big. I mean, a blowout.
233
00:08:19,741 --> 00:08:21,752
They're seeing all of us up there.
234
00:08:21,776 --> 00:08:23,588
We'll remind that board what they get
235
00:08:23,612 --> 00:08:26,090
when the Lyons run the Empire.
236
00:08:26,114 --> 00:08:30,661
I have an idea that could
make the event even bigger.
237
00:08:30,685 --> 00:08:33,231
Hmm?
238
00:08:33,255 --> 00:08:35,867
Tie in a fund-raiser
239
00:08:35,891 --> 00:08:38,775
with the National Alliance
for Bipolar Disorder.
240
00:08:40,312 --> 00:08:42,446
And make me the spokesperson.
241
00:08:49,255 --> 00:08:54,057
You mean, like, you, uh,
going public about your...
242
00:08:56,061 --> 00:08:57,722
I think it's time.
243
00:08:57,746 --> 00:08:59,891
It's a good cause,
244
00:08:59,915 --> 00:09:03,634
and it would really show
the board family values.
245
00:09:05,671 --> 00:09:09,267
That's brilliant, Dre.
246
00:09:09,291 --> 00:09:14,305
Yeah, going public
about his bipolar son.
247
00:09:14,329 --> 00:09:18,442
That makes your father even more
of a hero for doing that video.
248
00:09:18,466 --> 00:09:19,744
Lucious will love it.
249
00:09:19,768 --> 00:09:21,145
And the board will love him.
250
00:09:21,169 --> 00:09:24,855
I'll tell him it's all your idea.
251
00:09:27,660 --> 00:09:29,720
I was good at being the boss,
252
00:09:29,744 --> 00:09:33,658
but my family didn't believe in me.
253
00:09:33,682 --> 00:09:36,894
Yeah, but with all
this ass here, though,
254
00:09:36,918 --> 00:09:39,997
why are you worried?
255
00:09:40,021 --> 00:09:42,233
Marcel, pass me another bottle, man.
256
00:09:42,257 --> 00:09:43,568
Come on.
257
00:09:43,592 --> 00:09:46,843

The one that lets your fans

00:10:13,589 --> 00:10:14,766
Well, you left it on.
271
00:10:14,790 --> 00:10:16,134

supposed to come to me,

not this thirst trap.

Hakeem, we're engaged.

As long as you keep it real with me,
282
00:10:35,844 --> 00:10:38,290
I'm here for you,
regardless what you lose.
283
00:10:38,314 --> 00:10:39,991
You don't care I'm not CEO?

No, that's not why I'm with you.

You smell like stripper ass.
298
00:11:12,224 --> 00:11:14,168
Stripper ass smells good.
299
00:11:14,192 --> 00:11:15,726
Take them.
300
00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:17,970
Champagne hangovers are the worst, man.
301
00:11:17,994 --> 00:11:19,235
You need to get your head straight
302
00:11:19,259 --> 00:11:20,970
so we can help Mom pull off her event.
303
00:11:20,994 --> 00:11:23,806
Why do you keep trying to talk
to me about Mom's ASA thing?
304
00:11:23,830 --> 00:11:25,348
When my girl just broke
up our engagement.
305
00:11:25,693 --> 00:11:27,324
Did she actually break it off, though?
306
00:11:27,348 --> 00:11:28,528
Did she actually say it's over?
307
00:11:28,552 --> 00:11:30,175
She slapped me at the strip club.
308
00:11:30,199 --> 00:11:32,210
I don't get it, every time
I do everything right,
309
00:11:32,234 --> 00:11:33,478
everything go wrong.
310
00:11:33,502 --> 00:11:35,346
You think you did everything right?
311
00:11:35,370 --> 00:11:37,682
Bro, if you're trying to
lecture me right now, don't.
312
00:11:37,706 --> 00:11:39,017
You don't know what it's like.
313
00:11:39,041 --> 00:11:40,792
- I got this kid coming.
- Hey.
314
00:11:42,462 --> 00:11:44,155
Yeah, you got it pretty rough, Hakeem.
315
00:11:44,179 --> 00:11:46,257
- I guess I just had it easy, man.
- Dre, you know...
316
00:11:46,281 --> 00:11:48,026
No, no, no, let's just
baby the baby boy, okay?
317
00:11:48,050 --> 00:11:49,895
You know, I mean, I lost my kid, right?
318
00:11:49,918 --> 00:11:52,597
But let's just pamper Hakeem, again.
319
00:11:52,621 --> 00:11:54,199
Bro, that's not what I'm trying to say.
320
00:11:54,223 --> 00:11:56,601
It's just right now I just
suck at every point of life.
321
00:11:56,625 --> 00:11:58,536
He really does.
322
00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:00,038
Seriously.
323
00:12:00,062 --> 00:12:02,240
I'm sorry.
324
00:12:02,264 --> 00:12:04,876
I guess in your own ass-backwards way,
325
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:07,045
you had a sort of impressive run.
326
00:12:07,069 --> 00:12:08,780
Mm-hmm.
327
00:12:08,804 --> 00:12:11,549
That's true, man, you was a wild
CEO, but you were making moves.
328
00:12:11,573 --> 00:12:14,319
Yeah, a mash-up between
DMX and Bill Gates.
329
00:12:17,998 --> 00:12:21,025
Mom needs us, guys.
330
00:12:21,049 --> 00:12:22,293
All right, ASAs are important to her,
331
00:12:22,317 --> 00:12:25,063
and that's enough to
make me want to help.
332
00:12:25,087 --> 00:12:27,031
Dre, this is weird to me, though.
333
00:12:27,055 --> 00:12:30,602
You, of all people, doing a
bipolar event for Lucious.
334
00:12:30,626 --> 00:12:32,437
It's not for him, it's for Mom.
335
00:12:32,461 --> 00:12:34,739
I'm starting to feel like that's
the same thing these days.
336
00:12:34,763 --> 00:12:37,075
Wait, are you saying Mom
is falling for Lucious?
337
00:12:37,099 --> 00:12:38,776
Hell no.
338
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,512
I ain't getting King Kong
and Godzilla back together.
339
00:12:41,536 --> 00:12:43,214
Look at it like this, Hakeem,
340
00:12:43,238 --> 00:12:45,183
if you think that you deserve
a shot at getting Laura back,
341
00:12:45,207 --> 00:12:47,052
shouldn't, shouldn't Lucious get a shot
342
00:12:47,075 --> 00:12:49,053
at getting Cookie back?
343
00:12:49,077 --> 00:12:53,091
And Jamal, you know, you-you wanted
an ASA since you were in diapers.
344
00:12:53,115 --> 00:12:55,526
You gonna let Lucious
knock you off your game?
345
00:12:55,550 --> 00:12:58,229
Whatever, Dre.
346
00:12:58,253 --> 00:13:00,198
You know there was a time when Dad
347
00:13:00,222 --> 00:13:02,033
would have called you a sissy,
348
00:13:02,057 --> 00:13:03,601

No edges, no corners, no sockets.

00:17:27,214 --> 00:17:29,348

00:17:34,021 --> 00:17:36,315
What are you doing, Hakeem?
445
00:17:36,339 --> 00:17:38,083
I'm the father.
446
00:17:38,107 --> 00:17:40,052
I know it's more than buying stuff,
447
00:17:40,076 --> 00:17:41,760
but it's to show you that I'm in.
448
00:17:43,898 --> 00:17:45,657
What about your fiancée?
449
00:17:45,681 --> 00:17:48,227
What about her?
450
00:17:48,251 --> 00:17:50,338
I love her. She loves me.
451
00:17:50,769 --> 00:17:53,536
And I know she'll love the baby, too.
452
00:17:54,203 --> 00:17:55,468
But before I step to her,
453
00:17:55,823 --> 00:17:59,558
I got to make sure we straight first.
454
00:18:00,230 --> 00:18:02,356
Well, what makes you
think that I want you involved
455
00:18:02,380 --> 00:18:04,292
in raising our child?
456
00:18:04,316 --> 00:18:06,227
Anika,
457
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:08,062
the one good thing about being a Lyon...
458
00:18:08,086 --> 00:18:10,667
other than being kicked
up to the fullest...
459
00:18:11,097 --> 00:18:14,091
is that I've seen every wrong
move in raising a family,
460
00:18:14,115 --> 00:18:16,193
and I know what I shouldn't do.
461
00:18:16,217 --> 00:18:19,463
But there's a problem.
462
00:18:19,487 --> 00:18:22,633
Your father threatened my life
the day the baby is born.
463
00:18:22,657 --> 00:18:23,768
What?
464
00:18:23,792 --> 00:18:26,237
So forgive me, if I'm not feeling
465
00:18:26,261 --> 00:18:27,978
the whole concept of being a Lyon.
466
00:18:30,956 --> 00:18:32,883

chocolate ganache gâteau

470
00:18:37,545 --> 00:18:39,222
your-your staff was telling me
471
00:18:39,246 --> 00:18:41,397
that this series I'm doing
on you keeps getting bigger.
472
00:18:41,737 --> 00:18:43,731
Well, if you move me to your front page,
473
00:18:43,755 --> 00:18:46,100
maybe I'll give you an exclusive.
474
00:18:46,124 --> 00:18:49,003
You'd make it exclusive for me, Lucious?
475
00:18:49,027 --> 00:18:50,537
Exclusively yours.
476
00:18:50,561 --> 00:18:51,870
Hmm.
477
00:18:51,894 --> 00:18:54,584
Okay, well, I guess we'll
have to go front page.
478
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,981
Mmm, my God.
479
00:18:57,005 --> 00:18:58,111
This woman has a tracking device
480
00:18:58,135 --> 00:18:59,349
in your sack or something.
481
00:18:59,373 --> 00:19:02,685
This woman got a lot of things, honey.
482
00:19:02,709 --> 00:19:04,350
Ooh, it smell fishy in here.
483
00:19:04,374 --> 00:19:06,486
We were eating lobster for lunch.
484
00:19:06,510 --> 00:19:07,987
Mmm, I'm sure.
485
00:19:08,011 --> 00:19:09,889
I'm free tonight.
486
00:19:09,913 --> 00:19:11,383
How about I have my dessert later?
487
00:19:11,407 --> 00:19:13,719
- I'll send the car.
- All right.
488
00:19:13,743 --> 00:19:17,156
You might want to send
some vinegar and water.
489
00:19:17,180 --> 00:19:18,323
I'll see you tonight, Lucious.
490
00:19:18,347 --> 00:19:20,626
Why you got to be so nasty?
491
00:19:20,650 --> 00:19:21,827
You the one nasty.
492
00:19:21,851 --> 00:19:23,428
You need to disinfect this seat.
493
00:19:23,452 --> 00:19:25,430
What?
494
00:19:25,454 --> 00:19:26,832
Your boy got something really important
495
00:19:26,856 --> 00:19:28,167
to say to you, Lucious.
496
00:19:28,191 --> 00:19:30,135
So you threatened to kill her.
497
00:19:30,159 --> 00:19:31,609
The mother of my child?
498
00:19:34,281 --> 00:19:36,308
I don't know what you're talking about.
499
00:19:36,332 --> 00:19:39,411
The last I heard, you didn't
care what happened to her.
500
00:19:39,435 --> 00:19:40,846
Her mom's telling her to leave New York
501
00:19:40,870 --> 00:19:42,614
and to get as far away
from me as possible.
502
00:19:42,638 --> 00:19:45,083
Oh, well, she can't do that, Hakeem.
503
00:19:45,107 --> 00:19:48,120
You have rights as a father,
and we have lawyers.
504
00:19:48,144 --> 00:19:50,489
Hell, Thirsty's shady
ass can get that baby.
505
00:19:50,513 --> 00:19:51,757
Mom, stop.
506
00:19:51,781 --> 00:19:52,958
I'm the father.
507
00:19:52,982 --> 00:19:54,359
The baby's mine, okay?
508
00:19:54,383 --> 00:19:56,929
I want Anika to feel safe and happy.
509
00:19:56,953 --> 00:19:58,831
So here's the deal:
510
00:19:58,855 --> 00:20:01,267
If Anika leaves,
511
00:20:01,290 --> 00:20:04,036
you won't see the baby or me again.
512
00:20:04,060 --> 00:20:05,771
Uh, Hakeem.
513
00:20:05,795 --> 00:20:08,707
Hakeem.
514
00:20:08,731 --> 00:20:11,376
Ooh, he's upset.
515
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,213
You think
it's funny, don't you?
516
00:20:14,237 --> 00:20:17,115
You know we need the boy
to show up to our event.
517
00:20:17,139 --> 00:20:20,152
Or, you can get used to
answering to whitey.
518
00:20:20,176 --> 00:20:23,188
You know I'm sick and tired
of the way they do business.
519
00:20:23,212 --> 00:20:27,326
I know, so maybe you should back off,
520
00:20:27,350 --> 00:20:30,395
and let me handle Boo Boo Kitty.
521
00:20:30,419 --> 00:20:32,664
You worry about that-that scallop
522
00:20:32,688 --> 00:20:34,572
you have coming to see you later.
523
00:20:38,027 --> 00:20:40,712
I should have never went public.
524
00:20:44,536 --> 00:20:47,364
Being here today
wasn't an easy thing for me.
525
00:20:48,604 --> 00:20:52,184
In fact, it was terrifying.
526
00:20:52,208 --> 00:20:54,954
And that's exactly why I'm doing it.
527
00:20:54,977 --> 00:20:57,789
Mental health is such
a shameful subject,
528
00:20:57,813 --> 00:21:00,392
especially for
African-American families.
529
00:21:00,416 --> 00:21:02,861
For years, my father
hid from that shame,
530
00:21:02,885 --> 00:21:04,496
because the thought of his
own mother being bipolar
531
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:05,931
was more than he could bear.
532
00:21:05,955 --> 00:21:07,566
I feel like maybe Lucious
533
00:21:07,590 --> 00:21:09,167
should actually say that second part,
534
00:21:09,191 --> 00:21:10,569
you know?
535
00:21:10,593 --> 00:21:12,004
"I hid from the shame,"
536
00:21:12,028 --> 00:21:13,705
therefore, it's more of a back and forth
537
00:21:13,729 --> 00:21:15,007
between father and son, you know?
538
00:21:15,031 --> 00:21:17,075
Got you.
539
00:21:17,099 --> 00:21:18,677
That's why you're here, baby.
540
00:21:22,455 --> 00:21:25,717
If this gets him reinstated as CEO,
541
00:21:25,741 --> 00:21:27,753
- you know what that means, right?
- Yes.
542
00:21:27,777 --> 00:21:29,454
With Jamal and Hakeem
out of the running,
543
00:21:29,478 --> 00:21:31,790
that leaves you solidly in
place for his number two.
544
00:21:31,814 --> 00:21:34,393
Mmm, just a heartbeat away
from the throne, baby.
545
00:21:34,417 --> 00:21:35,727
Where you always belonged.
546
00:21:35,751 --> 00:21:37,602
Yeah, that's right.
547
00:21:38,939 --> 00:21:40,232
And what about those
other two board members,
548
00:21:40,256 --> 00:21:41,466
the holdouts?
549
00:21:41,490 --> 00:21:42,768
Oh, they'll be there.
550
00:21:42,792 --> 00:21:44,069
I made sure of that.
551
00:21:44,093 --> 00:21:46,972
- Okay, good.
- Cookie's arranged for a ton of press.
552
00:21:46,996 --> 00:21:49,875
Everything's in position.
553
00:21:49,899 --> 00:21:51,349
Okay?
554
00:22:02,295 --> 00:22:04,656
Anika?
555
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,625
Uh, Anika, we need to talk
about what you're doing
556
00:22:06,649 --> 00:22:07,659
with your baby.
557
00:22:07,683 --> 00:22:09,294
Oh, no. What happened?
558
00:22:09,318 --> 00:22:10,462
Step aside, ma'am.
559
00:22:10,486 --> 00:22:12,097
Wait, is she okay?
560
00:22:12,121 --> 00:22:13,398
Ma'am, you need to step aside.
561
00:22:13,422 --> 00:22:14,733
You need to stop telling me what to do.
562
00:22:14,757 --> 00:22:15,934
Is she gonna be all right?
563
00:22:15,958 --> 00:22:17,936
Hold up. Is she okay?
564
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:18,904
Look, ma'am, you can
follow us to the hospital.
565
00:22:18,928 --> 00:22:19,905
I'm not following.
566
00:22:19,929 --> 00:22:22,407
I'm riding. That's my son's baby.
567
00:22:29,906 --> 00:22:31,126
Bleeding is dark red,
568
00:22:31,150 --> 00:22:33,167
approximately 100-150 cc's.
569
00:22:33,191 --> 00:22:36,162
No visible wounds. BP is 104/66.
570
00:22:36,185 --> 00:22:38,201
Pulse, 140 beats per minute.
571
00:22:38,225 --> 00:22:39,797
Is she gonna be okay?
572
00:22:39,821 --> 00:22:42,300
Oh, my God, it hurts so bad.
573
00:22:42,324 --> 00:22:44,168
Ma'am, I need you to stay calm.
574
00:22:44,192 --> 00:22:45,542
Can you tell me how bad the pain is?
575
00:22:47,046 --> 00:22:48,806
She's having a damn panic attack.
576
00:22:48,830 --> 00:22:50,041
Can't you give her something?
577
00:22:50,065 --> 00:22:51,209
I can give her oxygen, that's it.
578
00:22:51,233 --> 00:22:52,911
Pain meds might effect the baby.
579
00:22:52,934 --> 00:22:54,912
- No, I'm not...
- Anika, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
580
00:22:54,936 --> 00:22:56,147
Anika, listen.
581
00:22:56,171 --> 00:22:57,415
Listen, listen.
582
00:22:57,439 --> 00:22:59,984
Anika, I need you to relax, okay?
583
00:23:00,008 --> 00:23:01,386
You're stressing the baby.
584
00:23:01,410 --> 00:23:02,887
I can't.
585
00:23:02,911 --> 00:23:06,257
Look, uh, I know you're scared.
586
00:23:06,281 --> 00:23:08,526
I need you to trust me right now, okay?
587
00:23:08,550 --> 00:23:10,528
Forget everything. Forget everything.
588
00:23:10,552 --> 00:23:12,363
And just listen to the
sound of my voice.
589
00:23:12,387 --> 00:23:14,065
Breathe.
590
00:23:14,089 --> 00:23:15,366
Breathe with me.
591
00:23:18,794 --> 00:23:19,904
Come on.
592
00:23:19,928 --> 00:23:22,073
There you go.
593
00:23:22,097 --> 00:23:23,708
Come on, keep going.
594
00:23:23,732 --> 00:23:25,676
Okay, let him put that on.
595
00:23:25,700 --> 00:23:26,878
Keep breathing.
596
00:23:26,902 --> 00:23:29,553
That a girl.
597
00:23:31,891 --> 00:23:33,885
Yes, you're gonna be all right.
598
00:23:33,909 --> 00:23:38,189
And that baby's gonna be
just fine, believe that.
599
00:23:38,213 --> 00:23:40,525
Thank you.
600
00:23:40,549 --> 00:23:44,462
Besides, Hakeem would kill me if
something happens to his baby.
601
00:23:44,486 --> 00:23:46,597
You mean your grandchild.
602
00:24:02,121 --> 00:24:05,316
♪ La, la, la, la ♪
603
00:24:05,340 --> 00:24:08,219
♪ La, la, la, la ♪
604
00:24:08,243 --> 00:24:09,687
Mmm.
605
00:24:13,114 --> 00:24:15,827
- You like that?
- Uh...
606
00:24:15,851 --> 00:24:18,329
The Whitney's been trying to get me
607
00:24:18,353 --> 00:24:21,265
to part with that for a decade.
608
00:24:21,289 --> 00:24:22,633
You should donate it.
609
00:24:22,657 --> 00:24:26,170
Art is supposed to be shared.
610
00:24:26,194 --> 00:24:29,947
Well, I share my music and my words.
611
00:24:40,125 --> 00:24:42,286
Oh, I like this.
612
00:24:44,312 --> 00:24:48,159
You really shut the
whole club down for me?
613
00:24:48,183 --> 00:24:51,262
You sure Cookie's not
gonna bust in on us?
614
00:24:51,286 --> 00:24:52,864
Nah.
615
00:24:52,888 --> 00:24:55,807
This is a place for demons tonight.
616
00:24:59,745 --> 00:25:01,745
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, you like it.
617
00:25:02,815 --> 00:25:04,475
Just show me.
618
00:25:04,499 --> 00:25:05,710
Gettin' rough with me?
619
00:25:05,734 --> 00:25:06,677
But I'm on top.
620
00:25:06,701 --> 00:25:07,778
You like that?
621
00:25:07,802 --> 00:25:08,752
Yeah, what do you think?
622
00:25:15,728 --> 00:25:19,190
There you are.
623
00:25:19,214 --> 00:25:20,358
Do you like that?
624
00:25:20,382 --> 00:25:21,598
Only if you mean it.
625
00:25:31,210 --> 00:25:32,303
Do you feel that?
626
00:25:32,327 --> 00:25:33,671
I see you like to be in charge, huh?
627
00:25:33,695 --> 00:25:34,872
Mm-hmm.
628
00:25:34,896 --> 00:25:37,714
I got a job for you.
629
00:25:40,001 --> 00:25:42,953
You are blowing my mind.
630
00:25:47,221 --> 00:25:48,639
- Hold on.
- Uh-uh.
631
00:25:50,596 --> 00:25:52,924
Come on, not now, Cookie.
Come on, not now.
632
00:25:52,948 --> 00:25:54,692
No, Cookie, damn it.
633
00:25:54,716 --> 00:25:56,694
I'm so sorry.
634
00:25:56,718 --> 00:25:59,363
It's okay, Lucious, I get it.
635
00:26:01,356 --> 00:26:03,067
You two have a thing.
636
00:26:03,091 --> 00:26:06,037
Cookie says jump, you ask how high.
637
00:26:06,061 --> 00:26:08,372
Oh, it's not like that.
638
00:26:08,396 --> 00:26:09,840
It's a family emergency.
639
00:26:09,864 --> 00:26:11,742
I will make it up to you.
640
00:26:11,766 --> 00:26:13,617
We'll raincheck, you know.
641
00:26:14,820 --> 00:26:17,348
You know,
642
00:26:17,372 --> 00:26:20,284
why don't I do my profile
on Cookie, instead?
643
00:26:20,308 --> 00:26:22,353
"Meet the Manipulative Bitch
644
00:26:22,377 --> 00:26:23,921
"That Has The Mighty Lucious Lyon
645
00:26:23,945 --> 00:26:25,189
Wrapped Around Her Little Finger."
646
00:26:25,213 --> 00:26:26,390
What do you think?
647
00:26:26,414 --> 00:26:28,826
I think...
648
00:26:28,850 --> 00:26:30,861
you'd do really good
649
00:26:30,885 --> 00:26:33,770
not to say nothing bad
about her ever again.
650
00:26:35,574 --> 00:26:39,036
I'll have Thirsty send a car.
651
00:26:39,060 --> 00:26:41,706
I get it if you
want to give it back,
652
00:26:41,730 --> 00:26:43,741
but I wish you wouldn't.
653
00:26:43,765 --> 00:26:45,977
I don't know what my options are.
654
00:26:46,001 --> 00:26:48,746
I mean, at this point.
655
00:26:48,770 --> 00:26:50,715
My options are bad, too,
656
00:26:50,739 --> 00:26:52,783
but you want me to turn
my back on my baby?
657
00:26:52,807 --> 00:26:55,119
It's not fair to ask me that, Hakeem.
658
00:26:55,143 --> 00:26:56,821
I didn't create the situation.
659
00:26:56,845 --> 00:26:58,923
I know you didn't,
660
00:26:58,947 --> 00:27:02,660
but, babe, I got to step up or
I'm gonna look less of a man.
661
00:27:02,684 --> 00:27:04,629
And I wouldn't be
worthy of marrying you.
662
00:27:07,756 --> 00:27:09,400
Do you think you should get that?
663
00:27:09,424 --> 00:27:12,269
Nothing else matters when I'm with you.
664
00:27:12,293 --> 00:27:14,905
If you're gonna raise
a child with Anika,
665
00:27:14,929 --> 00:27:18,676
- where does that leave us?
- It'd be my kid.
666
00:27:18,700 --> 00:27:22,447
She'd be the mother,
and you'll be my wife.
667
00:27:22,470 --> 00:27:25,155
We'll be a family.
668
00:27:28,460 --> 00:27:31,489
I think you and me
669
00:27:31,513 --> 00:27:36,466
have very different ideas
of what family means.
670
00:27:39,204 --> 00:27:41,866
Don't do that.
671
00:27:41,890 --> 00:27:43,306
It's done.
672
00:28:01,085 --> 00:28:04,545
Hakeem.
673
00:28:05,507 --> 00:28:06,637
Where is she at? Is she okay, Mom?
674
00:28:06,661 --> 00:28:07,681
Her mother's right there.
675
00:28:10,486 --> 00:28:12,533
Hi, Mrs. Calhoun, I'm Hakeem.
676
00:28:12,558 --> 00:28:13,783
It's about time you showed up.
677
00:28:13,807 --> 00:28:15,280
Look, I came as soon as I heard.
678
00:28:15,304 --> 00:28:18,250
My daughter has been pregnant
for almost five months.
679
00:28:18,274 --> 00:28:21,186
Look, I did... I'm sorry. Can
I just go please see her?
680
00:28:23,245 --> 00:28:24,690
Uh, look, he's trying
to do the right thing.
681
00:28:24,714 --> 00:28:26,391
Give him a chance.
682
00:28:26,415 --> 00:28:29,428
Your family isn't exactly known
for doing the right thing.
683
00:28:29,452 --> 00:28:31,963
Look, Mrs. Calhoun,
I can promise you,
684
00:28:31,987 --> 00:28:34,066
whatever happened in the past,
685
00:28:34,090 --> 00:28:36,007
I'm going to take care
of Anika and our baby.
686
00:28:38,445 --> 00:28:39,571
Room 348.
687
00:28:39,595 --> 00:28:40,812
She wants to see you.
688
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,147
And if you need
anything, hit that button.
689
00:28:49,171 --> 00:28:50,749
Thank you, Linda.
690
00:28:50,773 --> 00:28:52,451
Look at the grandmas over there.
691
00:28:52,475 --> 00:28:55,153
Boy, shut your damn mouth.
692
00:28:55,177 --> 00:28:56,788
Didn't you hear the nurse?
You got to be quiet.
693
00:28:56,812 --> 00:28:58,623
The baby can't have all that noise.
694
00:28:58,647 --> 00:29:01,132
It is kind of ironic, though.
695
00:29:04,687 --> 00:29:07,666
Uh, Lucious is on his way.
696
00:29:07,690 --> 00:29:08,734
I didn't know
697
00:29:08,758 --> 00:29:10,001
if he'd show up.
698
00:29:10,025 --> 00:29:12,671
Lucious Lyon is not welcome here.
699
00:29:12,695 --> 00:29:14,272
Not after what he did.
700
00:29:14,296 --> 00:29:16,775
Mom.
701
00:29:16,799 --> 00:29:18,677
What'd he do? Ma?
702
00:29:18,701 --> 00:29:19,811
What, boy?
703
00:29:19,835 --> 00:29:20,912
It's your father.
704
00:29:20,936 --> 00:29:22,581
What hasn't he done?
705
00:29:22,605 --> 00:29:24,355
Look, I'm hungry.
706
00:29:24,991 --> 00:29:27,125
What'd he do?
707
00:29:35,001 --> 00:29:36,862
Hey, I'm looking for
Anika Calhoun's room.
708
00:29:43,009 --> 00:29:44,436
How is she?
709
00:29:44,460 --> 00:29:46,477
We need to talk.
710
00:29:49,582 --> 00:29:51,276
Look, son, I'm sorry.
711
00:29:51,300 --> 00:29:52,583
I'm calling off the dogs, okay?
712
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,120
That's my little grandchild in there.
713
00:29:57,123 --> 00:29:59,351
What you did to Anika's father.
714
00:29:59,375 --> 00:30:02,654
Having him sign those papers so
I can take my company public?
715
00:30:02,678 --> 00:30:04,156
Having him commit fraud?
716
00:30:04,180 --> 00:30:06,324
Oh, so now you the moral compass.
717
00:30:06,348 --> 00:30:08,994
Just a couple months ago,
718
00:30:09,018 --> 00:30:11,129
you tried to take my company from me.
719
00:30:11,153 --> 00:30:12,531
People do a whole lot of stuff
720
00:30:12,555 --> 00:30:13,865
to gain their wealth.
721
00:30:13,889 --> 00:30:15,667
But you know what?
722
00:30:15,691 --> 00:30:17,669
I forgive you for that.
723
00:30:17,693 --> 00:30:19,377
I actually respect you for that.
724
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:22,474
I thought you was gonna kill me.
725
00:30:22,498 --> 00:30:24,976
A couple times I thought about it.
726
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,145
If you had been somebody
else's kid, I would.
727
00:30:28,170 --> 00:30:31,082
But seein' the way
728
00:30:31,106 --> 00:30:34,085
you came into my office, and
you stood up for your baby
729
00:30:34,109 --> 00:30:36,127
and your baby's mama...
730
00:30:40,349 --> 00:30:42,561
...I realized I raised you right.
731
00:30:42,585 --> 00:30:44,496
You understand it's about
732
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,499
family first, then it's kingdom.
733
00:30:47,523 --> 00:30:48,934
That's the thing, the family stuff
734
00:30:48,958 --> 00:30:50,769
is a little messed up right now.
Let me guess,
735
00:30:50,793 --> 00:30:54,272
she's really not feeling this whole
736
00:30:54,296 --> 00:30:56,775
addition to the nuclear family, huh?
737
00:30:56,799 --> 00:31:00,078
I bet you if you and I
talked to her together,
738
00:31:00,102 --> 00:31:02,487
she would see things a
whole different way.
739
00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:08,887
All right, I'm gonna go check on Anika.
740
00:31:08,911 --> 00:31:10,589
Make sure she cool.
741
00:31:10,613 --> 00:31:12,123
But you still can't come in.
742
00:31:12,147 --> 00:31:13,758
Respect that.
743
00:31:13,782 --> 00:31:16,294
I'll just sit back here and
make a couple phone calls.
744
00:31:16,318 --> 00:31:20,131
See about making sure my
grandchild and the baby mama
745
00:31:20,155 --> 00:31:21,933
got the best care possible.
746
00:31:21,957 --> 00:31:25,109
There's benefits to being
Lucious Lyon's son.
747
00:31:32,752 --> 00:31:37,249
Mm-mm, you sure are a snake charmer.
748
00:31:37,273 --> 00:31:39,117
Speaking of which, your little snake
749
00:31:39,141 --> 00:31:40,886
must have been doing some slithering.
750
00:31:40,910 --> 00:31:42,954
I smell cheap perfume.
751
00:31:42,978 --> 00:31:44,756
That's said by a woman that apparently
752
00:31:44,780 --> 00:31:46,825
has no emotional attachment to me.
753
00:31:46,849 --> 00:31:48,927
Just for your information,
754
00:31:48,951 --> 00:31:52,163
nothing happened between me and Harper.
755
00:31:52,187 --> 00:31:54,633
You know, they got blue pills for that.
756
00:31:54,657 --> 00:31:57,002
Nothing to be ashamed of.
757
00:31:57,026 --> 00:31:58,503
The day I need one of them blue pills
758
00:31:58,527 --> 00:32:01,145
is the day I'm gonna
buy the damn company.
759
00:32:03,449 --> 00:32:06,444
I really don't care what
did or did not happen
760
00:32:06,468 --> 00:32:08,346
between you and mop head.
761
00:32:08,370 --> 00:32:13,151
You know, truth is,
762
00:32:13,175 --> 00:32:15,453
she just didn't do it for me.
763
00:32:15,477 --> 00:32:18,290
I like a smart woman,
764
00:32:18,314 --> 00:32:21,660
but I like a woman that
got some hood in her.
765
00:32:21,684 --> 00:32:24,262
Yeah, well, she's too skinny to be hood.
766
00:32:24,286 --> 00:32:27,132
You know I like a woman that's
got some curves to her.
767
00:32:27,156 --> 00:32:28,333
Oh, yeah?
768
00:32:28,357 --> 00:32:29,868
You had her.
769
00:32:29,892 --> 00:32:31,603
Shoulda kept her.
770
00:32:31,627 --> 00:32:34,272
Uh, if you roll your way over here...
771
00:32:34,296 --> 00:32:36,641
Uh...
772
00:32:36,665 --> 00:32:38,610
What if I could get you
773
00:32:38,634 --> 00:32:41,446
an exclusive profile in the trades?
774
00:32:41,470 --> 00:32:44,282
Something that could go online
as early as tomorrow morning?
775
00:32:44,306 --> 00:32:48,486
That would be a really good look.
776
00:32:48,510 --> 00:32:50,989
Are you really talking
about scooping Harper?
777
00:32:51,013 --> 00:32:53,692
I mean, you got a problem with that?
778
00:32:53,716 --> 00:32:55,527
I don't owe her anything,
779
00:32:55,551 --> 00:32:57,868
and she ain't got nothing on me.
780
00:33:02,609 --> 00:33:06,638
I mean, the truth is, I wanted
to put a human face to mental illness.
781
00:33:06,662 --> 00:33:08,206
That's what "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom"
782
00:33:08,230 --> 00:33:10,208
was all about for me, you know?
783
00:33:10,232 --> 00:33:12,344
You're gonna win that ASA, Lucious.
784
00:33:12,368 --> 00:33:14,746
And that'll be great for
Empire's share price.
785
00:33:14,770 --> 00:33:17,582
I'm sorry for being so
bottom line about it.
786
00:33:17,606 --> 00:33:19,584
Uh-Uh, no, you can't apologize for that.
787
00:33:19,608 --> 00:33:21,019
I mean, that's the difference
788
00:33:21,043 --> 00:33:23,254
between me and my other son, Jamal.
789
00:33:23,278 --> 00:33:24,923
I'm an artist, but I actually care
790
00:33:24,947 --> 00:33:26,524
about our shareholders.
791
00:33:26,548 --> 00:33:28,393
Now, I'm not saying
792
00:33:28,417 --> 00:33:30,195
that he is any less deserving of an ASA
793
00:33:30,219 --> 00:33:31,496
just because me and his mama
794
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,598
picked all his songs for his album.
795
00:33:33,622 --> 00:33:37,035
No, he's just, uh, an artist
that's still developing,
796
00:33:37,059 --> 00:33:38,336
which is a good thing.
797
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:39,710
- A really good thing.
- Nice.
798
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,708
Jamal, we were just talking about you.
799
00:33:43,732 --> 00:33:45,543
So this is what we're gonna do, Dad?
800
00:33:45,567 --> 00:33:47,012
For an award?
801
00:33:47,036 --> 00:33:49,447
I came here to support you and Dre.
802
00:33:49,471 --> 00:33:51,883
Relax, man, I'm just doing
a little business here.
803
00:33:51,907 --> 00:33:53,658
I don't like the way
that you do business.
804
00:33:55,228 --> 00:33:57,255
It's not right.
805
00:33:57,279 --> 00:33:58,523
Jamal.
806
00:33:58,547 --> 00:33:59,724
No, it's cool.
807
00:33:59,748 --> 00:34:00,892
I wouldn't perform here if you paid me.
808
00:34:00,916 --> 00:34:03,528
- I'm out.
- Jamal.
809
00:34:03,552 --> 00:34:04,863
You bastard.
810
00:34:04,887 --> 00:34:07,132
Letting another publication scoop me?
811
00:34:07,156 --> 00:34:08,933
And you knew that that would make
812
00:34:08,957 --> 00:34:11,569
my big Lucious Lyon exclusive useless.
813
00:34:11,593 --> 00:34:15,740
I didn't know anything,
sweetheart, but...
814
00:34:15,764 --> 00:34:18,410
I like to share my stories.
815
00:34:18,434 --> 00:34:20,485
Mm-hmm.
816
00:34:22,755 --> 00:34:24,522
I'll see you later.
817
00:34:26,292 --> 00:34:27,591
No love?
818
00:34:34,367 --> 00:34:36,728
Andre, just the man I was looking for.
819
00:34:36,752 --> 00:34:38,463
I have something I think
820
00:34:38,487 --> 00:34:39,764
that might interest you.
821
00:34:39,788 --> 00:34:41,166
Um, it's not really a good time.
822
00:34:41,190 --> 00:34:42,606
I'm about to go on stage with my father.
823
00:34:50,283 --> 00:34:51,609
What is this?
824
00:34:51,633 --> 00:34:53,578
It's a group home outside
of Philadelphia.
825
00:34:53,602 --> 00:34:55,346
This couple
826
00:34:55,370 --> 00:34:56,581
collects money from the state
827
00:34:56,605 --> 00:34:59,557
to take care of ten mentally ill adults.
828
00:35:00,626 --> 00:35:03,755
Keep going.
829
00:35:03,779 --> 00:35:05,863
That's woman's name is Leah Walker.
830
00:35:09,068 --> 00:35:10,868
I believe she's your grandmother.
831
00:35:14,373 --> 00:35:16,073
You can keep the pictures.
832
00:35:17,043 --> 00:35:18,203
Hey.
833
00:35:18,227 --> 00:35:20,439
What's going on? You okay?
834
00:35:20,462 --> 00:35:22,674
Um...
835
00:35:22,698 --> 00:35:23,942
I have to go.
836
00:35:23,966 --> 00:35:25,343
Go?
837
00:35:25,367 --> 00:35:26,650
Go where, babe?
838
00:35:31,509 --> 00:35:33,743
Hi.
839
00:35:34,846 --> 00:35:37,074
Laura, what are you doing here?
840
00:35:37,098 --> 00:35:39,643
Your dad called me.
841
00:35:39,667 --> 00:35:41,979
He said he had Anika
moved to a nicer room,
842
00:35:42,003 --> 00:35:45,182
and that you're really
taking care of her.
843
00:35:45,206 --> 00:35:47,885
He said you're becoming
a man he respects.
844
00:35:47,909 --> 00:35:49,525
My dad said that?
845
00:35:52,931 --> 00:35:55,659
Is she gonna be okay?
846
00:35:55,683 --> 00:35:57,594
Yeah, she's doing better.
847
00:35:57,618 --> 00:36:00,103
They say she should be
able to leave tomorrow.
848
00:36:08,146 --> 00:36:10,507
I've been carrying this ring
ever since you took it off.
849
00:36:10,531 --> 00:36:14,111
I was hoping
850
00:36:14,135 --> 00:36:17,654
maybe you could see things
the way I see them.
851
00:36:47,802 --> 00:36:50,247
Freda, whatcha doing here?
852
00:36:50,271 --> 00:36:52,549
- What up?
- Whatcha do... Whatcha doing here?
853
00:36:52,573 --> 00:36:54,584
I seen your poster on Hakeem's
app, thought I'd come through.
854
00:36:54,608 --> 00:36:57,220
That's so dope, come on.
Yeah, yeah, come on.
855
00:36:57,244 --> 00:36:58,555
What's up, y'all? How y'all doin'?
856
00:36:58,579 --> 00:37:00,457
That is so dope, you came through?
857
00:37:00,481 --> 00:37:03,627
Yeah, man, had to, man.
858
00:37:04,852 --> 00:37:06,730
Amen. That's-that's right.
859
00:37:06,754 --> 00:37:09,667
You see, Empire is a family brand.
860
00:37:09,690 --> 00:37:13,337
And together, we're taking
that brand into the future.
861
00:37:13,361 --> 00:37:15,405
Together, we've faced many obstacles,
862
00:37:15,429 --> 00:37:17,240
and overcome many challenges,
863
00:37:17,264 --> 00:37:19,543
that's made us stronger than ever.
864
00:37:19,567 --> 00:37:20,817
Yes.
865
00:37:22,487 --> 00:37:25,082
Where are your sons tonight?
866
00:37:25,106 --> 00:37:28,157
This doesn't really seem
like much of a family.
867
00:37:29,494 --> 00:37:30,954
Uh, you want
to hear about family?
868
00:37:30,978 --> 00:37:33,790
Well, I will tell you about family.
869
00:37:33,814 --> 00:37:38,128
Ladies and gentleman, I have an
amazing announcement for you tonight.
870
00:37:38,152 --> 00:37:40,330
For the first time ever,
871
00:37:40,354 --> 00:37:45,969
the Lyon family will be performing
at this year's ASA awards.
872
00:37:45,993 --> 00:37:51,141
The Empire presents the
first family of music.
873
00:37:51,165 --> 00:37:56,613
Hakeem, Jamal, and Lucious Lyon, all on
the same stage at the same damn time.
874
00:37:56,637 --> 00:37:58,482
How about that?
875
00:37:58,506 --> 00:38:00,050
- Ain't that something?
- Yes.
876
00:38:00,074 --> 00:38:02,386
- Is that really gonna happen?
- Yes, even if I have
877
00:38:02,410 --> 00:38:06,497
to get a strap and strangle
you all to behave.
878
00:38:08,233 --> 00:38:11,628
The ASAs wanted
him, but we've got him.
879
00:38:11,652 --> 00:38:18,335
Ladies and gentleman, let's give a
warm round of applause for Jamal Lyon.
880
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,307
Get 'em, Mal!
881
00:38:24,331 --> 00:38:26,009
Okay, Mal!
882
00:38:26,033 --> 00:38:28,818
That's right, Jamal!
883
00:38:35,126 --> 00:38:37,393
Hey!
884
00:38:39,947 --> 00:38:43,527

936
00:41:17,589 --> 00:41:19,015
Congratulations, you two.
937
00:41:19,039 --> 00:41:22,986
We just heard you've raised a record
amount of money tonight for NABD.
938
00:41:23,010 --> 00:41:27,390
And, Cookie, that vision you laid
out of the Lyon family presenting
939
00:41:27,414 --> 00:41:30,527
and performing at the ASAs...
Oh, genius.
940
00:41:30,551 --> 00:41:33,197
Thank you. It's just what we
need to reposition Empire
941
00:41:33,220 --> 00:41:36,199
and get Wall Street
re-excited about the company.
942
00:41:36,223 --> 00:41:38,368
- Yes.
- Well, that's exactly why we did it.
943
00:41:38,392 --> 00:41:41,505
You know, Lucious, the
board had been looking
944
00:41:41,528 --> 00:41:45,242
at an outside candidate for
CEO, but we're now unanimous
945
00:41:45,266 --> 00:41:46,877
in our thinking that it should be...
946
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:49,946
Well, before you go any
further, I just want to say,
947
00:41:49,970 --> 00:41:53,083
without the help of Cookie
Lyon, my number one,
948
00:41:53,107 --> 00:41:55,052
this would not have been possible.
949
00:41:55,075 --> 00:41:56,286
That's just what we were getting to.
950
00:41:56,310 --> 00:42:00,123
Considering the fact the two
of you co-founded Empire
951
00:42:00,147 --> 00:42:02,226
and now continue to
work together so well,
952
00:42:02,249 --> 00:42:04,227
the board would like you to come on
953
00:42:04,251 --> 00:42:06,502
as co-CEOs.
954
00:42:07,905 --> 00:42:09,366
Co-CEO?
955
00:42:09,390 --> 00:42:13,909
Control of Empire would be split down
the middle, between the two of you.
956
00:42:15,947 --> 00:42:20,110
Uh, that-that-that-that's a great
proposition, but I think, um,
957
00:42:20,134 --> 00:42:23,247
Lucious and I, we would have
to discuss the details.
958
00:42:23,270 --> 00:42:25,048
Nah, no, no, there's nothing to discuss.
959
00:42:25,072 --> 00:42:26,450
Um...
960
00:42:26,473 --> 00:42:28,557
Um...
961
00:42:30,628 --> 00:42:32,889
I think it's a fantastic idea.
962
00:42:32,913 --> 00:42:34,424
- I'm so glad to hear you say that.
- Congratulations.
963
00:42:34,448 --> 00:42:35,459
Thank you.
964
00:42:35,482 --> 00:42:36,960
That's wonderful.
965
00:42:36,984 --> 00:42:38,261
Take care.
966
00:42:38,285 --> 00:42:39,969
- Congratulations.
- Take care.
967
00:42:41,005 --> 00:42:42,165
You do?
968
00:42:42,189 --> 00:42:46,800
I mean, you and me finally
working together, side by side.
969
00:42:46,824 --> 00:42:48,711
I wouldn't have it any other way.
970
00:42:49,781 --> 00:42:52,409
- Congratulations, baby.
- Thank you.
971
00:42:57,336 --> 00:42:58,617
I got your back.
972
