1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:01,609
Previously on "Empire"...

2
00:00:01,629 --> 00:00:03,235
Lucious: Empire Entertainment

3
00:00:03,269 --> 00:00:05,968
has filed to become
a publicly traded company.

4
00:00:05,988 --> 00:00:07,673
Don't forget
to thank your Cookie on this

5
00:00:07,707 --> 00:00:09,474
historic occasion.

6
00:00:09,509 --> 00:00:12,044
You forgot about me the second
you divorced me in there.

7
00:00:12,078 --> 00:00:14,713
It was my $400,000
that started this bitch.

8
00:00:14,747 --> 00:00:16,815
And I want half my company back.

9
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:18,517
I want to know everything
she's doing.

10
00:00:18,551 --> 00:00:19,918
Everything.

11
00:00:19,953 --> 00:00:21,286
Dr. Shahani: You got ALS.

12
00:00:21,321 --> 00:00:22,855
- How long I got?
- Three years.

13
00:00:22,889 --> 00:00:24,656
Part of us going public means

14
00:00:24,691 --> 00:00:27,526
I need one of my sons
to man up and lead it.

15
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:28,961
We're all in competition to be
the future head of the company?

16
00:00:28,995 --> 00:00:30,229
Everything I did

17
00:00:30,263 --> 00:00:31,597
was for you and your brothers.

18
00:00:31,631 --> 00:00:32,598
Do you want a medal, bitch?

19
00:00:32,632 --> 00:00:35,153
What I want is some respect!

20
00:00:36,052 --> 00:00:37,402
You got it, Mal.

21
00:00:37,437 --> 00:00:38,504
Now we just got
to show the world.

22
00:00:38,538 --> 00:00:39,571
Lucious: Your sexuality...

23
00:00:39,606 --> 00:00:41,410
that's a choice, son.

24
00:00:41,430 --> 00:00:42,441
Hey, mama.

25
00:00:42,475 --> 00:00:45,292
You really made something
of yourself.

26
00:00:46,312 --> 00:00:47,913
- She's trying to manage my career.
- Hakeem: If you do end up

27
00:00:47,947 --> 00:00:49,348
working with her
and pop's handling me,

28
00:00:49,382 --> 00:00:51,817
best believe they try
to make us kill each other.

29
00:00:51,851 --> 00:00:53,685
You can fool this country,
but I know you ain't nothing

30
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,320
but a punk-ass gangsta.

31
00:00:55,355 --> 00:00:57,789
I never let anything come
between friendship...

32
00:00:57,824 --> 00:00:58,790
Except a bullet.

33
00:00:58,825 --> 00:01:00,159

34
00:01:01,694 --> 00:01:04,296

You got ALS.

Wall Street, and, if successful,

51
00:01:54,681 --> 00:01:56,014
it would make history.

52
00:01:56,049 --> 00:01:59,102
New York's Attorney General

Checking out my house.

69
00:03:19,504 --> 00:03:21,567
That's a Klimt.

70
00:03:21,986 --> 00:03:23,469
Yeah, well, you can keep it.

71
00:03:23,503 --> 00:03:24,937
It's ugly.

72
00:03:24,971 --> 00:03:26,638
We've already settled
our agreement,

73
00:03:26,673 --> 00:03:29,942
and my house was not part
of the deal, Cookie.

74
00:03:29,976 --> 00:03:31,176
I don't want no parts
of this house

75
00:03:31,211 --> 00:03:33,112
or this tacky mess
you got in it.

76
00:03:33,146 --> 00:03:35,781
I'm just here to make sure you
don't stab your son in the back.

77
00:03:35,815 --> 00:03:39,118
- And what are you talking about?
- Lucious, baby, can you help...

78
00:03:39,152 --> 00:03:42,329
Oh, I didn't realize
we had company.

79
00:03:44,532 --> 00:03:46,125

00:04:07,404 --> 00:04:08,580
Oh, you don't talk.

84
00:04:08,615 --> 00:04:09,948
I do talk.

85
00:04:09,983 --> 00:04:12,885
Lucious: Thank you.
That's enough.

86
00:04:18,404 --> 00:04:20,793
I'm not backstabbing my son.

87
00:04:20,827 --> 00:04:24,063
I know you have Hakeem performing
at the opening of Laviticus.

88
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:25,597
Put Jamal up there, too.

89
00:04:25,632 --> 00:04:28,000
No. It's only gonna be Hakeem.

90
00:04:28,034 --> 00:04:30,269
Don't do this, Lucious.

91
00:04:30,303 --> 00:04:33,138
Jamal doesn't belong
on my stage.

92
00:04:33,173 --> 00:04:35,541
- It's not his audience.
- His audience?

93
00:04:35,575 --> 00:04:37,560
Jamal's music is universal,
and you know it.

94
00:04:37,580 --> 00:04:40,245
I've invested a whole lot
of money into Laviticus.

95
00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:42,721
I'm not gonna have it branded
a homosexual club.

96
00:04:42,741 --> 00:04:44,817
Anika: Cookie, you can talk
as much mess as you want,

97
00:04:44,851 --> 00:04:47,186
but I have nine
of Empire's top acts

98
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:50,189
and none of them
are gonna be there, so...

99
00:04:50,223 --> 00:04:51,790
Tonight is not about Jamal.

100
00:04:51,825 --> 00:04:54,693
Excuse me, sweetie,
this is a family matter

101
00:04:54,728 --> 00:04:58,297
involving two of my sons
and the family business

102
00:04:58,331 --> 00:05:01,133
that Lucious and I started
with my $400,000.

103
00:05:01,167 --> 00:05:03,602
Excuse me, baby.

104
00:05:03,636 --> 00:05:06,572
Yeah. With my money. Cookie, let
me talk to you for a second.

105
00:05:06,606 --> 00:05:08,540
Get your hands off of me!
I'm not that tired heifer.

106
00:05:08,575 --> 00:05:11,043
You signed a nondisclosure
agreement not to say

107
00:05:11,077 --> 00:05:12,244
anything about the $400,000,

108
00:05:12,278 --> 00:05:14,013
or have you forgotten already?

109
00:05:14,047 --> 00:05:16,749
She don't know that it was
my $400,000 in drug money

110
00:05:16,783 --> 00:05:18,851
that started this company,
does she?

111
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,087
I went away for a long time

112
00:05:22,122 --> 00:05:25,124
for you to build all of this.

113
00:05:25,158 --> 00:05:27,960
I missed my sons growing up.

114
00:05:27,994 --> 00:05:30,562
I'm gonna make some things
right.

115
00:05:30,597 --> 00:05:33,732
You're not shutting Jamal out
no more.

116
00:05:33,767 --> 00:05:36,186
It's not gonna happen.

117
00:05:42,542 --> 00:05:44,243
I'm here with Hakeem
Lyon on the Eve

118
00:05:44,277 --> 00:05:46,211
of his debut performance
at Laviticus.

119
00:05:46,246 --> 00:05:48,547
Yo, Keem, you getting
ready to be famous?

120
00:05:48,581 --> 00:05:50,949
I mean, that's the plan,
ain't it?

121
00:05:50,984 --> 00:05:53,886
My pop's setting me up to be the prince
of Empire, so... Hold on, hold up.

122
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,354
You ain't getting
ready to be nothing

123
00:05:55,388 --> 00:05:56,622
unless you finish with
that rehearsal first.

124
00:05:56,656 --> 00:05:58,190
(Laughter) What... oh, my God!

125
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,960
Ooh. Look at that.

126
00:06:02,996 --> 00:06:04,930
And who you? What's up?

127
00:06:04,965 --> 00:06:07,333
- Wrong room.
- You ain't got the wrong... come here.

128
00:06:07,367 --> 00:06:09,034
Hey, who that?

129
00:06:09,069 --> 00:06:10,235
That's Tiana, man.

130
00:06:10,270 --> 00:06:12,171
Your pop's girl just signed her.

131
00:06:12,205 --> 00:06:15,889
- She famous.

Mmm. Now, that was bananas.

161
00:07:17,871 --> 00:07:19,204
What are you doing here?

162
00:07:19,239 --> 00:07:21,173
Yo, Keem, tell her you're
the prince of Empire.

163
00:07:21,207 --> 00:07:23,776
- Tell her you about to be famous.
- Hakeem: Pick one. Pick one you want.

164
00:07:23,810 --> 00:07:25,244
- You having fun?
- No.

Um, you guys are
ruining my rehearsal.

00:07:29,716 --> 00:07:31,784
Come on, y'all. I got to get up
out of here, man.

00:07:31,818 --> 00:07:33,118
All right, we out. We didn't...
we didn't mean to do that.

00:07:33,153 --> 00:07:35,154
Come on, man.

171
00:07:36,356 --> 00:07:37,923
I'm in there rehearsing, too.

172
00:07:37,958 --> 00:07:40,292
I'm opening up
at Laviticus this weekend.

173
00:07:40,327 --> 00:07:42,194
That's nice. Where's Anika?

174
00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:44,063
- She was supposed to see this.
- Anika?

175
00:07:44,097 --> 00:07:45,731
(Sighs) Look, Tiana, right?

176
00:07:45,765 --> 00:07:47,800
You're new here.
You might be a little famous

177
00:07:47,834 --> 00:07:49,401
and everything, but...

178
00:07:49,436 --> 00:07:52,504
there's a lot of perks
that come with being nice to me.

179
00:07:52,539 --> 00:07:55,741
So how about this?
I put you on VIP at Laviticus,

180
00:07:55,775 --> 00:07:57,743
and we turn up the right way.

181
00:07:57,777 --> 00:08:00,112
How about this? Get your rich,
phony ass out of here.

182
00:08:00,132 --> 00:08:02,324
Phony? Come here. What you talking
about, phony?

183
00:08:02,344 --> 00:08:03,949
Don't waste my time.

184
00:08:03,984 --> 00:08:07,019
For real? That's how it is?

185
00:08:07,053 --> 00:08:09,255
Come here, girl.

186
00:08:09,289 --> 00:08:11,290
♪ Hey, hey, hey, hey ♪

187
00:08:11,324 --> 00:08:13,726
♪ Hey, hey, hey, hey ♪

188
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,427
♪ Hey, hey, hey, hey ♪

189
00:08:15,462 --> 00:08:17,296
♪ Hey, hey, hey, hey ♪

190
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:19,832
Becky, have we heard anything
back from any of the managers?

191
00:08:19,866 --> 00:08:21,367
I need someone onstage
backing him up.

192
00:08:21,401 --> 00:08:22,735
Not yet,

193
00:08:22,769 --> 00:08:24,003
but I have word out to all five.

194
00:08:24,037 --> 00:08:26,280
Still no word from Bunkie yet.

195
00:08:26,300 --> 00:08:28,474
Well, send somebody up
to Atlantic city.

196
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:31,076
Last time he disappeared, he was
up there wasting my money.

197
00:08:31,111 --> 00:08:33,345
Right, yeah,
I know. So I did.

198
00:08:33,380 --> 00:08:34,914
ALSo to Las Vegas

199
00:08:34,948 --> 00:08:36,715
and that casino
outside of Palm Springs.

200
00:08:36,750 --> 00:08:38,918
But, sir, there's a new problem
that I really

201
00:08:38,952 --> 00:08:40,452
need your attention for.

202
00:08:40,487 --> 00:08:42,187
Well, I've got one problem
right now,

203
00:08:42,222 --> 00:08:44,390
and that's finding someone
to back up my son.

204
00:08:44,424 --> 00:08:46,959
Get Vernon on the line.
I need him to get this done.

205
00:08:46,993 --> 00:08:48,761
Right, I will,
but you really need to...

206
00:08:48,795 --> 00:08:50,195
Get Vernon, damn it.

207
00:08:50,230 --> 00:08:52,298
Getting Vernon.

208
00:08:52,332 --> 00:08:53,399
Vernon, you're on with Lucious.

209
00:08:53,433 --> 00:08:54,900
Hey, baby, I need you

210
00:08:54,935 --> 00:08:56,969
to get me someone
to back up Hakeem.

211
00:08:57,003 --> 00:08:58,170
Somebody really big.

212
00:08:58,204 --> 00:09:00,039
I got one shot
to debut this boy,

213
00:09:00,073 --> 00:09:01,707
and it's got to be epic.

214
00:09:01,741 --> 00:09:03,242
Yeah, well,
how about Kidd Fo-Fo?

215
00:09:03,276 --> 00:09:05,611
Photos alone are gonna go viral.

216
00:09:05,645 --> 00:09:07,546
Nah, he would never do it.
He's way too big.

217
00:09:07,581 --> 00:09:10,316
Oh, yes, he will. He's about
to owe us a huge favor.

218
00:09:10,350 --> 00:09:11,455
What you talking 'bout, Willis?

219
00:09:11,475 --> 00:09:12,933
There was a shooting at a mall in Elmhurst.

220
00:09:12,953 --> 00:09:15,478
- Two people are dead.
- Becky, why didn't you tell me this?

221
00:09:15,498 --> 00:09:18,123
You see, you never listen to me.
I tried to tell you that before.

222
00:09:18,158 --> 00:09:21,226
And the idiot goes and posts
a video online and cites

223
00:09:21,261 --> 00:09:23,629
Fo-Fo as his biggest inspiration.

224
00:09:23,663 --> 00:09:25,297
The media's been attacking us
all morning.

225
00:09:25,332 --> 00:09:26,899
(Reporters clamoring)

226
00:09:26,933 --> 00:09:28,934
Mr. Lyon, do you have any
comment about the shooting?

227
00:09:28,969 --> 00:09:31,370
Mr. Lyon, do you have
any comment about the shooting?

228
00:09:31,404 --> 00:09:33,138
I have nothing.

229
00:09:33,173 --> 00:09:34,773
Original share price set at $18.

230
00:09:34,808 --> 00:09:36,942
Need to explain
valuation model to dad.

231
00:09:36,977 --> 00:09:40,179
Find streaming model to increase
Empire's bottom line.

232
00:09:40,213 --> 00:09:43,882
Figure out how to undermine
Hakeem at Laviticus.

233
00:09:45,051 --> 00:09:46,919
Did you see Dr. Obst yesterday?

234
00:09:46,953 --> 00:09:48,887
Canceled
my last two appointments.

235
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:51,457
With Laviticus opening
and this IPO, dad freaks out

236
00:09:51,491 --> 00:09:53,192
every time I leave the office.

237
00:09:53,226 --> 00:09:55,527
You need to go.

238
00:09:55,562 --> 00:09:57,196
Today.

239
00:09:57,230 --> 00:09:59,265
You were talking
in your sleep about yourself

240
00:09:59,299 --> 00:10:00,532
in the third person.

241
00:10:00,567 --> 00:10:03,802
You need to recalibrate
your meds again.

242
00:10:03,837 --> 00:10:05,471
Right after Laviticus, Rhonda.

243
00:10:05,505 --> 00:10:08,040
Dad's using it to launch Hakeem.

244
00:10:08,074 --> 00:10:11,043
He's completely crazy
about it right now.

245
00:10:16,349 --> 00:10:18,851
(Moans softly)

246
00:10:21,221 --> 00:10:23,363
Listen to me.

247
00:10:24,802 --> 00:10:27,214
For most people,
canceling a doctor's appointment

248
00:10:27,234 --> 00:10:28,861
is just lazy.

249
00:10:29,716 --> 00:10:33,499
But for someone who's bIPOlar,
it's life-threatening.

250
00:10:36,267 --> 00:10:38,203
And...

251
00:10:38,509 --> 00:10:40,139
your life...

252
00:10:40,582 --> 00:10:42,541
Is mine.

253
00:10:45,879 --> 00:10:47,546
(Zipper unzips) I'll go.

254
00:10:47,580 --> 00:10:49,915
Oh. You should tell your mother

255
00:10:49,950 --> 00:10:52,451
that Hakeem is performing
at Laviticus.

256
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:54,679
She'll try to sabotage it.

257
00:10:54,939 --> 00:10:56,922
Already did.

258
00:10:58,290 --> 00:10:59,491
(Chuckling)

259
00:10:59,526 --> 00:11:02,895
(Kissing sounds)

260
00:11:07,267 --> 00:11:09,501
Your mom's here.

261
00:11:09,536 --> 00:11:12,004
Come on, boy, get up,
we got work to do.

262
00:11:12,038 --> 00:11:14,940
- Ma, how'd you get in my house?
- I got a key.

263
00:11:14,975 --> 00:11:16,812
What is this song you wrote?

264
00:11:17,433 --> 00:11:18,644
It ain't half bad.

265
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:20,379
Perform it
at the club on Saturday.

266
00:11:20,413 --> 00:11:22,966
You got a call
from somebody named Carter.

267
00:11:23,103 --> 00:11:24,383
Thought I told you
to wait in the car.

268
00:11:24,417 --> 00:11:26,352
- Who's that?
- Porsha.

269
00:11:26,386 --> 00:11:27,886
My new assistant. Probationary.

270
00:11:27,921 --> 00:11:29,622
You want to call her?
She said it's urgent.

271
00:11:29,656 --> 00:11:31,156
I said get out of here.

272
00:11:38,004 --> 00:11:39,732
Hey. I got a plan.

273
00:11:39,766 --> 00:11:41,500
Your daddy's
got Hakeem performing

274
00:11:41,534 --> 00:11:43,434
at Laviticus on Saturday.

275
00:11:43,583 --> 00:11:45,237
I'm gonna get you up
on the stage, too.

276
00:11:45,272 --> 00:11:47,606
- He don't want me there.
- I don't care what he wants.

277
00:11:47,641 --> 00:11:49,527
- Well, we do.
- Shut up, Dora.

278
00:11:50,197 --> 00:11:51,710
You gonna get up,

279
00:11:51,745 --> 00:11:53,612
and you gonna work on this song.

280
00:11:53,647 --> 00:11:55,948
And come Saturday,
you gonna show everybody

281
00:11:55,982 --> 00:11:57,349
that you are just as talented

282
00:11:57,384 --> 00:11:59,051
as your brother.

283
00:11:59,085 --> 00:12:00,119
Let's hit it.

284
00:12:00,153 --> 00:12:01,987
(Flushing)

285
00:12:05,358 --> 00:12:07,192
(Water running)

286
00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:27,112
(Door opens)

287
00:12:27,147 --> 00:12:29,048
- Becky, how...
- Ow.

288
00:12:29,082 --> 00:12:31,417
- many times do I have to tell you about
- Stop-stop it.

289
00:12:31,451 --> 00:12:33,252
using my bathroom?

290
00:12:33,286 --> 00:12:35,287
Stop it.

291
00:12:35,322 --> 00:12:36,855
I know you're sick.

292
00:12:38,391 --> 00:12:41,293
Is that why you're doing
this crazy IPO thing?

293
00:12:41,328 --> 00:12:42,828
Is that why you're
pitting your sons

294
00:12:42,862 --> 00:12:44,396
against one another
for your company?

295
00:12:44,431 --> 00:12:46,131
You went through my stuff?

296
00:12:52,505 --> 00:12:55,574
Look, I wanted
to tell you, but...

297
00:12:56,206 --> 00:12:58,675
nobody can know about this.

298
00:13:01,247 --> 00:13:03,248
There's no cure, is there?

299
00:13:03,540 --> 00:13:05,584
- Lou Gehrig's disease.
- Or ALS.

300
00:13:05,618 --> 00:13:07,820
There's no cure. I'm dying.

301
00:13:16,456 --> 00:13:19,410
What this man is doing is wrong.

302
00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:20,693
(Clattering)

303
00:13:20,727 --> 00:13:23,196
Get out of my way.
Get out of our way. Move!

304
00:13:23,230 --> 00:13:25,751
Get out of our way! Move!

305
00:13:26,024 --> 00:13:27,547
Why should I apologize?

306
00:13:27,567 --> 00:13:29,234
No, we don't... we don't
want you to apologize,

307
00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:31,324
- Fo-Fo.
- We don't want you to say anything.

308
00:13:31,647 --> 00:13:34,506
I mean, look, all the news
say I inspired him, right?

309
00:13:34,541 --> 00:13:36,875
I'm inspiring. I inspire people,

310
00:13:36,910 --> 00:13:38,077
like Gandhi.

311
00:13:38,923 --> 00:13:41,847
Lucious: Yeah, yeah, like Gandhi.

312
00:13:42,683 --> 00:13:44,750
Look, I'm getting
a whole lot of pressure

313
00:13:44,784 --> 00:13:47,619
to drop you.

314
00:13:48,358 --> 00:13:50,122
Now, I'm gonna take care
of this thing for you, but

315
00:13:50,156 --> 00:13:52,224
I'm gonna need you to take care
of something for me.

316
00:13:52,258 --> 00:13:53,726
What?

317
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,060
Play with Hakeem

318
00:13:55,095 --> 00:13:56,762
at Laviticus's opening.

319
00:13:56,796 --> 00:13:58,897
- Play backup to your son?
- No, no, no, no.

320
00:13:58,932 --> 00:14:01,367
It's not you doing backup;
You're-you're...

321
00:14:01,401 --> 00:14:03,869
You're more like
a mentor to him.

322
00:14:03,903 --> 00:14:07,039
Like Diana Ross did
for the Jackson 5.

323
00:14:07,073 --> 00:14:08,926
Who's Diana Ross?

324
00:14:12,016 --> 00:14:13,879
You don't need to drop him
'cause of the shooting.

325
00:14:13,913 --> 00:14:15,214
Drop him because
his music sucks.

326
00:14:15,248 --> 00:14:17,049
Who is this stupid bitch?

327
00:14:17,083 --> 00:14:19,852
Someone who would've never
gave birth to your ugly ass.

328
00:14:19,886 --> 00:14:22,588
- Oh, hell no!
- Yo, yo! Hey, hey, hey, hey,

329
00:14:22,622 --> 00:14:23,822
- Hey, hey.
- What, you gonna ray rice me?

330
00:14:23,857 --> 00:14:25,658
- Yeah.
- No, let him go, Vernon.

331
00:14:25,692 --> 00:14:28,427
I faced bigger in prison
with more talent, bitch.

332
00:14:28,461 --> 00:14:31,597
- Yeah, a'ight, bitch.
- Get your hands off of me.

333
00:14:31,631 --> 00:14:33,899
- He's a punk. Drop him.
- I'm not dropping him.

334
00:14:33,933 --> 00:14:35,701
He makes me a whole
lot of money.

335
00:14:35,735 --> 00:14:37,670
I'm not dropping him because
of no damn controversy.

336
00:14:37,704 --> 00:14:39,304
(Short laugh)

337
00:14:39,339 --> 00:14:42,274
He must be on Anika's roster.

338
00:14:42,308 --> 00:14:44,910
Yeah, I see you still letting
that thing think for you.

339
00:14:44,944 --> 00:14:47,479
No, I'm-I'm trying to think
like a businessman.

340
00:14:47,514 --> 00:14:49,815
You need to start acting
like a professional

341
00:14:49,849 --> 00:14:51,383
instead of a hood rat.

342
00:14:51,418 --> 00:14:54,653
Oh. Okay.

343
00:14:54,688 --> 00:14:56,755
Well, my professional opinion

344
00:14:56,790 --> 00:14:58,624
is that you should launch
'em both at the same time

345
00:14:58,658 --> 00:15:01,226
at Laviticus.
The press will eat it up.

346
00:15:01,261 --> 00:15:03,228
The-the crowd would love
to see two brothers

347
00:15:03,263 --> 00:15:05,330
- onstage at the same time.
- No.

348
00:15:05,365 --> 00:15:07,833
And stop barging in my office.

349
00:15:07,867 --> 00:15:10,065
You're not wanted here.

350
00:15:16,743 --> 00:15:18,802
I'm-a call you back.

351
00:15:26,986 --> 00:15:28,988
Porsha, get my damn shoe.

352
00:15:29,843 --> 00:15:31,757
Porsha, get my shoe!

353
00:15:31,791 --> 00:15:33,692
I'm coming.

354
00:15:35,929 --> 00:15:36,895
(Phone ringing)

355
00:15:36,930 --> 00:15:38,197
Hello?

356
00:15:38,231 --> 00:15:39,765
Mr. Vernon Turner, Detective Walker,

357
00:15:39,799 --> 00:15:42,334
Manhattan north 28th precinct.

358
00:15:42,369 --> 00:15:45,804
We need you to identify a body.

359
00:15:45,839 --> 00:15:48,774
Walker: They found him floating
in the Hudson at 96th street.

360
00:15:50,210 --> 00:15:52,344
2:30 this morning.

361
00:16:09,796 --> 00:16:12,131
They shot him in the face.

362
00:16:12,165 --> 00:16:13,999
Lucious:
It was Shyne, wasn't it, man?

363
00:16:14,034 --> 00:16:17,736
Yeah, but why would
anybody shoot him for $25,000?

364
00:16:19,372 --> 00:16:21,740
I never let anything
come between friendship.

365
00:16:25,245 --> 00:16:26,745
We got to let his family know.

366
00:16:26,780 --> 00:16:28,180
Got to tell Cookie.

367
00:16:28,214 --> 00:16:30,983
Nah, that was her
closest cousin, man.

368
00:16:31,017 --> 00:16:32,117
You want me to tell her?

369
00:16:32,152 --> 00:16:33,218
No, no, no, I-I got to do it.

370
00:16:33,253 --> 00:16:35,688
Look, call everybody

371
00:16:35,722 --> 00:16:38,390
and have them meet me
at my house tonight.

372
00:16:38,425 --> 00:16:40,592
I'm-a see you there, dude.

373
00:16:43,330 --> 00:16:47,766
Jamal: ♪ Tell the truth ♪

374
00:16:49,969 --> 00:16:55,341
♪ Tell the truth. ♪

375
00:16:55,375 --> 00:16:56,909
It needs work, but it's
something like that.

376
00:16:56,943 --> 00:16:58,933
I love it, honey.

377
00:16:59,169 --> 00:17:00,446
Dad won't even listen to it.

378
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,349
That's why we got to
figure out a way

379
00:17:03,383 --> 00:17:05,818
to steal focus from Hakeem.

380
00:17:05,852 --> 00:17:08,721
That's cold-blooded.
Hakeem's your own son.

381
00:17:08,755 --> 00:17:10,422
Jamal should come out
as a big queen

382
00:17:10,457 --> 00:17:12,291
the same day Hakeem playing,
and that'd steal

383
00:17:12,325 --> 00:17:13,959
his whole thunder, for sure.
(Giggles)

384
00:17:13,994 --> 00:17:16,929
That's exactly what we'll do.

385
00:17:16,963 --> 00:17:20,032
- You gonna listen to this imbecile?
- Yes.

386
00:17:20,066 --> 00:17:21,834
And you're gonna sing
your little ass off

387
00:17:21,868 --> 00:17:23,535
and you're gonna
steal that show from Hakeem.

388
00:17:23,570 --> 00:17:25,337
I don't care to steal the show

389
00:17:25,372 --> 00:17:27,873
from Hakeem. And dad ain't
gonna let me on that stage.

390
00:17:27,907 --> 00:17:29,441
Fo-Fo is backing Hakeem.

391
00:17:29,476 --> 00:17:31,877
Okay.

392
00:17:31,911 --> 00:17:34,279
We'll stage our own show.
(Short chuckle)

393
00:17:34,314 --> 00:17:37,016
Right on the steps where
they're doing that protest.

394
00:17:37,050 --> 00:17:39,685
They can get all those reporters
to show up because some moms

395
00:17:39,719 --> 00:17:41,820
are mad at kidd Fo-Fo,
they will certainly

396
00:17:41,855 --> 00:17:43,389
show up for your
little coming-out party.

397
00:17:43,423 --> 00:17:45,157
And you'll sing that song,

398
00:17:45,191 --> 00:17:48,827
and it'll be all over the news,
and you'll be a star.

399
00:17:48,862 --> 00:17:51,897
Can you stop with
the publicity stunts, Mama Rose?

400
00:17:51,931 --> 00:17:53,983
I'm-a come out
the way I want to.

401
00:17:54,003 --> 00:17:57,255
It's gonna be bomb, Jamal.

402
00:17:57,602 --> 00:17:59,042
Who's Mama Rose?

403
00:17:59,166 --> 00:18:00,220
Oh, I know who she is.
That's that lady...

404
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,709
Hey, can you shut up and get out
of here? Give us a minute. Go.

405
00:18:03,729 --> 00:18:05,880
(Under her breath):
Drug dealing...

406
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:07,258
(Mumbles) Uh, what'd you say?

407
00:18:07,278 --> 00:18:09,348
I didn't say nothing.

408
00:18:09,382 --> 00:18:11,489
(Door opens, closes)

409
00:18:12,109 --> 00:18:13,765
Trust me, Jamal,
I know what I'm doing.

410
00:18:13,785 --> 00:18:16,420
I need to write songs.
I need to be creative.

411
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,957
I don't want to get in the middle
of you and him. (Phone rings)

412
00:18:17,991 --> 00:18:19,491
Speaking of the devil.

413
00:18:19,526 --> 00:18:23,095
Lucious, why? You got kidd Fo-Fo
playing with Hakeem

414
00:18:23,129 --> 00:18:25,030
after you told me no to Jamal.

415
00:18:25,065 --> 00:18:26,794
Bunkie's dead.

416
00:18:35,306 --> 00:18:37,307
(Quietly crying)

417
00:18:37,341 --> 00:18:39,487
They don't have any leads.

418
00:18:40,544 --> 00:18:42,312
But I'm gonna find the person

419
00:18:42,346 --> 00:18:43,513
that did this to my friend.

420
00:18:43,547 --> 00:18:45,582
And when I do, I'm gonna tear...

421
00:18:45,616 --> 00:18:47,884
Don't do anything silly, dad.

422
00:18:56,627 --> 00:18:58,261
They gonna be found.

423
00:19:03,567 --> 00:19:05,535
Bunkie wouldn't hurt nobody.

424
00:19:05,569 --> 00:19:07,537
I understand, baby.

425
00:19:07,571 --> 00:19:10,206
He was like a father to you.

426
00:19:10,241 --> 00:19:14,144
Come here. Come here.

427
00:19:14,178 --> 00:19:15,578
Don't touch me.

428
00:19:15,613 --> 00:19:18,298
- Don't you ever touch me again.
- Hakeem.

429
00:19:20,358 --> 00:19:23,075
Don't disrespect
your mother like that.

430
00:19:24,855 --> 00:19:27,557
Hakeem. Make sure
he's all right.

431
00:19:31,328 --> 00:19:34,998
Vernon: Don't you worry, Andre.
We're gonna find him.

432
00:19:40,441 --> 00:19:43,106
How does she know he was
like a father to us?

433
00:19:43,140 --> 00:19:44,874
They're cousins, stupid.

434
00:19:44,909 --> 00:19:47,310
- And?
- And Cookie knows everything.

435
00:19:47,344 --> 00:19:48,912
- No, she don't.
- Yes, she do.

436
00:19:48,946 --> 00:19:50,906
- No, she don't.
- Yes, she do.

437
00:19:52,249 --> 00:19:54,217
Yo, she wants me
to come out the same day

438
00:19:54,251 --> 00:19:56,352
that you perform at Laviticus
and get your press.

439
00:19:56,387 --> 00:19:59,622
She's Satan's daughter.
Why's she even here?

440
00:19:59,657 --> 00:20:01,458
Ain't she supposed to be locked
up for like ten more years?

441
00:20:01,492 --> 00:20:03,393
Hakeem, she ain't that bad.

442
00:20:03,427 --> 00:20:05,838
Man, I don't even feel
like performing at this show.

443
00:20:06,980 --> 00:20:08,965
You know Tiana?

444
00:20:12,441 --> 00:20:14,861
What'd you do, fool? (Burbling)

445
00:20:15,339 --> 00:20:17,373
Come on, what'd I tell you
about this damn reefer?

446
00:20:17,408 --> 00:20:20,376
(Coughs)

447
00:20:20,411 --> 00:20:23,580
Police gave me
Bunkie's personal effects.

448
00:20:23,614 --> 00:20:26,282
There wasn't much left, but...

449
00:20:26,317 --> 00:20:28,284
think he'd want you
to have this.

450
00:20:33,290 --> 00:20:36,993
The last time I'm gonna
tell you about this.

451
00:20:37,027 --> 00:20:39,229
Why does Lil Wayne
look like the devil?

452
00:20:39,263 --> 00:20:41,131
Hello, Becky.

453
00:20:41,165 --> 00:20:42,766
- Mm-hmm.
- Hey, Andre, how you holding up?

454
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,535
Not great, dad.
Got a new problem.

455
00:20:45,555 --> 00:20:46,351
What is it now?

456
00:20:46,371 --> 00:20:48,338
Underwriting bank
for the IPO launch pulled out.

457
00:20:48,372 --> 00:20:50,974
I think the kidd Fo-Fo
controversy spooked them.

458
00:20:51,008 --> 00:20:53,476
I don't get it.
I mean, controversy is Hip-Hop.

459
00:20:53,511 --> 00:20:56,112
- That's how we get rich.
- Corporate America

460
00:20:56,147 --> 00:20:58,114
may not be ready
for Hip-Hop, dad.

461
00:20:58,149 --> 00:21:00,517
With Bunkie getting killed
and this kidd Fo-Fo mess,

462
00:21:00,551 --> 00:21:02,263
well, maybe it's not the
right time to go public.

463
00:21:02,283 --> 00:21:04,654
No. We do it now.
Look, call the banks

464
00:21:04,688 --> 00:21:06,457
and get them back to the table.

465
00:21:08,325 --> 00:21:10,393
- I'll do my best.
- Look...

466
00:21:10,428 --> 00:21:14,264
you get this done,
and Empire is yours.

467
00:21:14,298 --> 00:21:16,266
Okay.

468
00:21:19,125 --> 00:21:21,271
I didn't want
to bring this up, but

469
00:21:21,305 --> 00:21:22,672
I don't think
Jamal's press conference

470
00:21:22,706 --> 00:21:24,695
is gonna help the situation.

471
00:21:25,514 --> 00:21:27,363
What press conference?

472
00:21:31,325 --> 00:21:32,715
That looks good.
That looks good.

473
00:21:32,750 --> 00:21:34,417
Can you come...
Can you come over here?

474
00:21:34,452 --> 00:21:36,052
Behind there. And you, too.

475
00:21:36,087 --> 00:21:38,354
His hair looks good.

476
00:21:38,389 --> 00:21:41,391
Uh... yeah. Mmm.

477
00:21:41,425 --> 00:21:43,593
Rhonda. I want your job.

478
00:21:43,627 --> 00:21:44,994
(Laughs) Hi, fellas.

479
00:21:45,029 --> 00:21:47,297
Some white girls
actually are brilliant.

480
00:21:47,331 --> 00:21:49,666
Oh, there's Dominique. I want
you to meet her real quick.

481
00:21:49,700 --> 00:21:51,267
She's a fabulous publicist.

482
00:21:51,302 --> 00:21:53,203
I got two minutes,
so make it fast.

483
00:21:53,237 --> 00:21:57,040
Where's the capers? I asked
for capers on the damn bagel.

484
00:21:57,074 --> 00:21:59,676
Um, Dominique,
this is Cookie Lyon.

485
00:21:59,710 --> 00:22:01,411
She's my mother-in-law.

486
00:22:01,445 --> 00:22:02,645
Lucious Lyon's ex-wife.

487
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,180
(Laughing): Oh, Cookie.

488
00:22:04,215 --> 00:22:05,582
It's amazing to meet you.

489
00:22:05,616 --> 00:22:07,283
I've read all about you.

490
00:22:07,318 --> 00:22:08,585
I love your pumps.

491
00:22:08,619 --> 00:22:09,753
(Gasps) They're fabulous.

492
00:22:09,787 --> 00:22:11,421
Oh, thank you, sister girl.

493
00:22:11,455 --> 00:22:12,856
Sister girl.

494
00:22:12,890 --> 00:22:14,390
(Laughing)

495
00:22:14,425 --> 00:22:16,326
I love you.
I absolutely love you.

496
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:18,261
So, what can I do for you?

497
00:22:18,295 --> 00:22:21,131
Well, I have a son who's a
musical genius like his father.

498
00:22:21,165 --> 00:22:23,600
And he's also a homo.
He wants to come out.

499
00:22:23,634 --> 00:22:24,658
So, what do you want from me?

500
00:22:24,678 --> 00:22:26,617
I want you to organize a press conference.

501
00:22:26,637 --> 00:22:28,972
He could sing a song that
he wrote about coming out

502
00:22:29,006 --> 00:22:30,874
to announce to the
world that he's a gay.

503
00:22:30,908 --> 00:22:32,809
- It could be huge.
- This is good. This is good.

504
00:22:32,843 --> 00:22:35,478
And she's the best publicist in
the city, so everyone will show.

505
00:22:35,513 --> 00:22:37,046
(Laughs)

506
00:22:37,081 --> 00:22:39,282
But I'm not cheap.
$8,000 a month.

507
00:22:39,316 --> 00:22:40,850
Ah. And make sure the kid shows.

508
00:22:40,885 --> 00:22:43,186
If you're just using me
for my contact,

509
00:22:43,220 --> 00:22:45,622
to stage some kind of
performance, I'll kill Rhonda.

510
00:22:45,656 --> 00:22:47,524
I'm not joking, Rhonda!
I'll kill ya!

511
00:22:47,558 --> 00:22:49,260
I know you will.

512
00:22:54,198 --> 00:22:57,200
Hey, y'all, let's get
another round in for Bunkie.

513
00:22:57,234 --> 00:22:58,902
Now, I'm just getting
this on film so that, like,

514
00:22:58,936 --> 00:23:01,171
it's documented,
but you only put

515
00:23:01,205 --> 00:23:04,474
one lime in this,
and I asked for two.

516
00:23:04,508 --> 00:23:05,809
Give him a lime, man.

517
00:23:05,843 --> 00:23:07,844
Hakeem, tell Tiana
what you think of her.

518
00:23:07,878 --> 00:23:09,879
Right there, man. Oh.

519
00:23:09,914 --> 00:23:12,215
- Tell Tiana what you think of her.
- Yes.

520
00:23:12,249 --> 00:23:13,716
Forget about Tiana.
She just jealous.

521
00:23:13,751 --> 00:23:15,452
Hey, baby. (Laughter)

522
00:23:15,486 --> 00:23:19,456
This is your boy Hakeem Lyon,
the original rap gangsta.

523
00:23:19,490 --> 00:23:21,357
(Laughter)

524
00:23:21,392 --> 00:23:22,892
I got something for you.

525
00:23:22,927 --> 00:23:25,428
What you got for her? A ring?

526
00:23:25,463 --> 00:23:26,696
Aah! Hey!

527
00:23:26,731 --> 00:23:29,632
Oh! Oh, my God! Stop! Stop!

528
00:23:29,667 --> 00:23:31,668
(Urinating) (Laughter)

529
00:23:31,702 --> 00:23:32,735
Oh!

530
00:23:32,770 --> 00:23:34,838
Really? Oh, no.

531
00:23:34,872 --> 00:23:36,873
What? Yo, you're gonna embarrass
your pops like that, man.

532
00:23:36,907 --> 00:23:38,908
You know. Obama.

533
00:23:38,943 --> 00:23:40,443
You're daddy's gonna kill you.

534
00:23:40,478 --> 00:23:43,213
Man, so what? Barack
Obama's a sellout.

535
00:23:43,247 --> 00:23:45,311
That brother's not even half of a
brother anyway.

536
00:23:45,331 --> 00:23:47,884
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you. Somebody knows.

537
00:23:49,453 --> 00:23:50,720
For real. (Laughing)

538
00:23:52,890 --> 00:23:55,291
(People whispering) What?!

539
00:23:55,326 --> 00:23:57,160
Y'all got a problem
with some black boys

540
00:23:57,194 --> 00:23:58,495
in your fine establishment?

541
00:23:58,529 --> 00:24:00,363
(Laughter)

542
00:24:00,398 --> 00:24:03,767
I got enough money to buy
this bitch and everybody in it.

543
00:24:03,801 --> 00:24:05,568
Talk to the camera, KK.

544
00:24:05,603 --> 00:24:06,970
Check this out.

545
00:24:07,004 --> 00:24:09,372
All you white people
that voted for the first

546
00:24:09,407 --> 00:24:12,742
black president to make you feel
good about not being racist,

547
00:24:12,777 --> 00:24:15,445
the joke's on y'all,

548
00:24:15,479 --> 00:24:19,315
'cause Barack Obama
ain't nothing but a sellout.

549
00:24:19,350 --> 00:24:20,517
Ooh!

550
00:24:20,551 --> 00:24:21,818
Man: Oh, come on. Really?

551
00:24:21,852 --> 00:24:25,588
(Laughter)

552
00:24:25,623 --> 00:24:28,124
(Siren blaring)

553
00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:29,826
Oh, so the po po comin'
to shoot me now?

554
00:24:29,860 --> 00:24:31,461
(Laughter)

555
00:24:31,495 --> 00:24:32,829
Oh, no, man.

556
00:24:32,863 --> 00:24:34,597
(Indistinct chatter, laughter)

557
00:24:34,632 --> 00:24:37,467
No, man. They gonna be up here
in like ten seconds.

558
00:24:39,655 --> 00:24:42,966
All you white folk who voted
for the first black president

559
00:24:42,986 --> 00:24:45,361
to make you feel good
about not being racist...

560
00:24:45,381 --> 00:24:47,975
He's doing all the work for us.

561
00:24:48,310 --> 00:24:49,630
The joke's on y'all
'cause Barack Obama

562
00:24:49,650 --> 00:24:51,552
- ain't nothing but a sellout.
- It's gone viral.

563
00:24:51,714 --> 00:24:52,899
What's viral?

564
00:24:52,934 --> 00:24:55,168
I don't know. That's what
they said on the news.

565
00:24:55,203 --> 00:24:57,204
Oh, so the po po comin'
to shoot me now?

566
00:24:57,238 --> 00:24:59,072
(Laughter)

567
00:24:59,106 --> 00:25:01,808
(Laughter and shouting in video)

568
00:25:01,843 --> 00:25:03,877
There ain't nothing
funny about that.

569
00:25:03,911 --> 00:25:06,012
(Laughing): It is funny.

570
00:25:06,047 --> 00:25:09,483
Mr. President,
I am so, so sorry.

571
00:25:09,517 --> 00:25:11,284
You know how he feels about you.

572
00:25:11,319 --> 00:25:12,853
He loves you.

573
00:25:12,887 --> 00:25:14,621
I love you. We all love you.

574
00:25:14,655 --> 00:25:17,509
He's just young and stupid

575
00:25:17,529 --> 00:25:19,793
and had a little
too much to drink.

576
00:25:22,356 --> 00:25:23,129
Come on, Barack.

577
00:25:23,164 --> 00:25:25,265
You know you don't have to use
that kind of language with...

578
00:25:25,299 --> 00:25:26,887
(Click, dial tone)

579
00:25:27,135 --> 00:25:28,768
Hello?

580
00:25:31,772 --> 00:25:34,907
Do you know the world
that we live in today?

581
00:25:34,942 --> 00:25:37,577
Do you have any idea
what those cops could have done

582
00:25:37,611 --> 00:25:38,945
- to your entitled ass?
- Anika: Lucious!

583
00:25:38,979 --> 00:25:40,380
Stop this! Stop this.

584
00:25:40,414 --> 00:25:42,649
- Dad, let me explain.
- Get out of here!

585
00:25:42,669 --> 00:25:44,050
Look at me.

586
00:25:44,084 --> 00:25:46,686
(Whispers): Chill out.

587
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,021
(Laughs)

588
00:25:48,055 --> 00:25:51,891
You're not gonna believe this,
but press RSVPS

589
00:25:51,925 --> 00:25:54,360
for the Laviticus opening
have quadrupled.

590
00:25:55,030 --> 00:25:57,930
Everyone wants to
see Hakeem perform

591
00:25:57,965 --> 00:25:59,198
since that video went up.

592
00:25:59,233 --> 00:26:01,501
This bad boy thing
has launched him.

593
00:26:01,535 --> 00:26:03,870
(Sighs, laughs)

594
00:26:05,873 --> 00:26:07,740
I don't like it.

595
00:26:07,775 --> 00:26:09,776
Yeah. I know.

596
00:26:09,810 --> 00:26:12,211
You're really not
going to like this,

597
00:26:12,246 --> 00:26:15,915
but the kidd Fo-Fo story
was picked up nationally.

598
00:26:15,949 --> 00:26:18,785
Megan McGann has been ranting
about it all day,

599
00:26:18,819 --> 00:26:20,219
saying that it's irresponsible

600
00:26:20,254 --> 00:26:22,622
to grant Empire a seat
on the NYSE.

601
00:26:22,656 --> 00:26:24,057
Enough, enough, enough, enough.

602
00:26:24,091 --> 00:26:26,092
(Sighs) Okay.

603
00:26:26,126 --> 00:26:28,127
We're gonna put out
another statement.

604
00:26:28,162 --> 00:26:29,962
No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, we're
gonna put out another statement,

605
00:26:29,997 --> 00:26:32,131
and this time... oh. All
we're gonna say is just that...

606
00:26:32,166 --> 00:26:33,766
No more statements.
It's not working.

607
00:26:33,801 --> 00:26:36,869
I'll go on her show,
I'll defend my own company.

608
00:26:36,904 --> 00:26:39,105
CNN, own and bet said

609
00:26:39,139 --> 00:26:40,640
they're all coming
to Jamal's press conference.

610
00:26:40,674 --> 00:26:42,675
What are they doing in there?

611
00:26:42,710 --> 00:26:46,390
Look like they having
a meeting to me.

612
00:26:46,410 --> 00:26:48,735
Anika: "Will you drop Kidd
Fo-Fo from the label,

613
00:26:48,755 --> 00:26:51,351
"and do you feel rap lyrics are

614
00:26:51,385 --> 00:26:53,052
a dangerous influence
on America's youth?"

615
00:26:53,087 --> 00:26:56,189
I stand by Kidd Fo-Fo 1,000%.

616
00:26:56,223 --> 00:26:58,791
I think that rap
is an expression

617
00:26:58,826 --> 00:27:00,560
of somebody's life experience.
It's not...

618
00:27:00,594 --> 00:27:03,129
That's good, but try not
to sound defensive.

619
00:27:03,163 --> 00:27:04,764
The goal of the talking points

620
00:27:04,798 --> 00:27:06,099
is to make you sound
non-emotional.

621
00:27:06,133 --> 00:27:07,834
I wasn't being defensive.

622
00:27:07,868 --> 00:27:09,268
Andre: He's right, dad.
You don't want

623
00:27:09,303 --> 00:27:11,474
to come across
as confrontational.

624
00:27:11,494 --> 00:27:13,106
Or like a man.

625
00:27:15,075 --> 00:27:16,976
And what's that supposed
to mean?

626
00:27:17,011 --> 00:27:19,379
Oh, just sounds like
you grew a vagina, that's all.

627
00:27:19,860 --> 00:27:20,947
Rude.

628
00:27:20,981 --> 00:27:22,682
No more rude

629
00:27:22,716 --> 00:27:24,948
than that anchorwoman haircut
you slop on your head.

630
00:27:24,968 --> 00:27:28,855
- Lucious?
- Cookie, I got to go on white TV and try

631
00:27:28,889 --> 00:27:30,457
and talk in a way

632
00:27:30,491 --> 00:27:32,939
that don't frighten these folks
to death.

633
00:27:35,396 --> 00:27:38,698
The Lucious Lyon I knew
would tell those idiots

634
00:27:38,733 --> 00:27:40,900
the streets ain't made
for everybody.

635
00:27:40,935 --> 00:27:43,136
That's why they made sidewalks.

636
00:27:45,194 --> 00:27:48,742
The Lucious Lyon you knew
isn't going on that show.

637
00:27:48,776 --> 00:27:51,277
Yeah, I guess
you're right, kitty.

638
00:27:53,714 --> 00:27:56,116
I liked you better
when you was a thug.

639
00:27:59,987 --> 00:28:02,455
(Phone ringing)

640
00:28:16,062 --> 00:28:17,904
Thank you.

641
00:28:17,938 --> 00:28:20,373
(Sighs)

642
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,012
I don't know how many times

643
00:28:26,047 --> 00:28:29,015
I can keep having
the same conversation with you.

644
00:28:29,050 --> 00:28:31,351
Out of respect for Bunkie,
I'm asking you, please...

645
00:28:31,385 --> 00:28:32,852
Are you serious?

646
00:28:32,887 --> 00:28:34,988
Don't do that.

647
00:28:35,022 --> 00:28:37,123
Bunkie had no problem
with me, and you know it.

648
00:28:37,158 --> 00:28:39,826
Yeah, well, other people do,
and you know it.

649
00:28:39,860 --> 00:28:42,028
Look, if you make
that announcement,

650
00:28:42,063 --> 00:28:45,698
I'm going to lose artists,
which will hurt Empire.

651
00:28:45,733 --> 00:28:47,033
I'm sorry, dad.

652
00:28:47,068 --> 00:28:49,402
The world does not
revolve around you.

653
00:28:52,675 --> 00:28:53,973
Your world does.

654
00:28:54,008 --> 00:28:55,909
I pay for everything.

655
00:28:56,441 --> 00:28:58,144
Your clothes,

656
00:28:58,179 --> 00:29:02,816
that $12,000-a-month loft
you live in,

657
00:29:02,850 --> 00:29:04,484
the credit card bills,

658
00:29:04,518 --> 00:29:08,288
your brand-new piano
you just bought.

659
00:29:08,322 --> 00:29:12,625
Come out,
and you're on your own.

660
00:29:12,660 --> 00:29:14,596
I'm done.

661
00:29:18,202 --> 00:29:21,240
Who's here? CNN? BET?

662
00:29:21,260 --> 00:29:24,057
Is own here?
If she cancels, I'll kill her.

663
00:29:24,077 --> 00:29:25,544
- Did he answer?
- He not answering.

664
00:29:25,564 --> 00:29:27,143
Keep calling.

665
00:29:27,177 --> 00:29:29,178
(Playing gentle melody)

666
00:29:29,212 --> 00:29:31,580
(Phone buzzing, ringing)

667
00:29:37,004 --> 00:29:40,689
Hey. So where's that gay genius
I've been hearing so much about?

668
00:29:40,724 --> 00:29:41,957
He's coming.

669
00:29:41,991 --> 00:29:43,625
- I expect him here.
- Okay.

670
00:29:43,660 --> 00:29:45,461
- What the hell are you doing?
- Where is he?

671
00:29:45,495 --> 00:29:46,729
He's not here yet?

672
00:29:46,763 --> 00:29:48,997
No! Call him.

673
00:29:49,032 --> 00:29:50,666
Today, we are here
with Hip-Hop mogul

674
00:29:50,700 --> 00:29:54,136
and superstar Lucious Lyon
whose artist, Kidd Fo-Fo,

675
00:29:54,170 --> 00:29:56,438
was accused
of inciting a shooting

676
00:29:56,473 --> 00:29:58,140
with his violent lyrics.

677
00:29:58,174 --> 00:29:59,875
Thank you for being
here, Mr. Lyon.

678
00:29:59,909 --> 00:30:01,410
You can call me Lucious.

679
00:30:01,444 --> 00:30:02,845
First off, um,

680
00:30:02,879 --> 00:30:04,847
I have to commend your son,
Hakeem Lyon,

681
00:30:04,881 --> 00:30:06,482
who recently accused

682
00:30:06,516 --> 00:30:09,585
President Obama
of being a sellout.

683
00:30:09,619 --> 00:30:11,453
Those were not
his true feelings,

684
00:30:11,488 --> 00:30:14,189
and he has personally apologized
to the president.

685
00:30:14,224 --> 00:30:17,459
I found his comments
bold and refreshing.

686
00:30:17,494 --> 00:30:21,493
I'm not so sure about
the, um, exhibition, though.

687
00:30:21,513 --> 00:30:23,432
He was just being a kid.

688
00:30:23,466 --> 00:30:26,735
Yeah, well,
he's actually an adult.

689
00:30:26,770 --> 00:30:28,370
Empire Enterprises

690
00:30:28,405 --> 00:30:30,739
has been accused
of perpetuating violence.

691
00:30:30,774 --> 00:30:33,575
Do you think that the misogyny

692
00:30:33,610 --> 00:30:35,544
and celebration of gang warfare

693
00:30:35,578 --> 00:30:37,980
that's so prevalent
in Hip-Hop music

694
00:30:38,014 --> 00:30:40,449
is healthy
for our nation's youth?

695
00:30:40,483 --> 00:30:41,984
Well, anything

00:30:42,018 --> 00:30:43,485

the first amendment

If artists are supposed

to thrive, they need to have
the freedom of speech. Uh...

701
00:30:50,927 --> 00:30:53,395
Right. Yeah, you had mentioned
that many times before.

702
00:30:53,430 --> 00:30:55,764
Let's go. Let's get out of here.
He ain't coming.

Ms. Lyon, do you have

704
00:30:57,167 --> 00:30:59,468
any comment on the Kidd
Fo-Fo controversy?

705
00:31:01,071 --> 00:31:03,605
I got plenty of comments.

706
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,474
Apparently, one of your
associates would like

707
00:31:05,508 --> 00:31:07,509
to make a comment on that issue.

708
00:31:07,544 --> 00:31:09,511
Kidd Fo-Fo's tired rhymes
ain't nothing

709
00:31:09,546 --> 00:31:12,781
compared to what Lucious Lyon
used to spit back in the day.

710
00:31:12,816 --> 00:31:14,616
The same man who used to sing,

711
00:31:14,651 --> 00:31:16,452
"The cops deny our freedom for life.

712
00:31:16,486 --> 00:31:18,821
I ain't afraid to kill one
to defend my wife."

713
00:31:18,855 --> 00:31:20,689
Your own lyrics

714
00:31:20,724 --> 00:31:25,527
are even more inciting than
the ones that you're defending.

715
00:31:25,562 --> 00:31:28,530

Our music is more of a narration

725

of an oppressed people.

726
00:31:53,256 --> 00:31:56,825
You see, the Empire artists

they live in a world

if all the songs do
is promote more violence?

732
00:32:17,514 --> 00:32:19,114
Well, there's hope in the fact

733
00:32:19,149 --> 00:32:21,650
that these kids are expressing
their anger

734
00:32:21,685 --> 00:32:25,120

with a 12-gauge shotgun.

No, but I-I thought about it,
and it didn't feel right.

786
00:35:50,331 --> 00:35:52,766
In this business, son...

787
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,236
you gonna have to do all sorts
of things you don't want to do.

788
00:35:56,270 --> 00:36:00,307
There's a price you got to pay
to hit big, and soon

789
00:36:00,341 --> 00:36:02,776
that bill is gonna come.

790
00:36:07,248 --> 00:36:08,748
Well, um...

791
00:36:08,783 --> 00:36:11,084
I should go check on Hakeem.

792
00:36:21,174 --> 00:36:22,929
Get me a whole bottle.

793
00:36:22,964 --> 00:36:25,899
I do believe it is called
bottle service for a reason.

794
00:36:25,933 --> 00:36:27,734
Thank you.

795
00:36:27,768 --> 00:36:29,602
Think you better
slow down, mister.

796
00:36:29,637 --> 00:36:32,405
Andre doesn't need to slow
down. Andre feels great.

797
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:33,907
I got Jamal and Cookie fighting,

798
00:36:33,941 --> 00:36:36,209
I got Lucious mad at Jamal,

799
00:36:36,243 --> 00:36:38,311

back in the game.

800
00:36:38,346 --> 00:36:39,879

will have you committed

802
00:36:42,483 --> 00:36:44,084

supposed to play with me.

Well, whatever.
You don't need that fool.

816
00:37:24,592 --> 00:37:26,126
You're ten times
more talented than him.

817
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,161
But I rehearsed this
to play with somebody.

818
00:37:28,195 --> 00:37:29,429
I don't want to play alone.

819
00:37:29,463 --> 00:37:31,564

- No, I don't know nothing.

821
00:37:36,103 --> 00:37:37,904
- You know what...
- Leave me alone.

822
00:37:37,938 --> 00:37:40,173

was up there with me.

(Chuckles)

864
00:39:34,488 --> 00:39:37,290
(Whooping, cheering)

865
00:39:47,168 --> 00:39:48,368
Can I come in?

866
00:39:48,402 --> 00:39:50,503
No, stay out.

867
00:39:51,639 --> 00:39:53,707
(Chuckling): Come on.

868
00:39:55,829 --> 00:39:57,277
You look nice.

869
00:39:57,311 --> 00:39:58,645
Thank you.

870
00:40:00,081 --> 00:40:02,482
That was dope.

871
00:40:02,516 --> 00:40:04,317
I'm glad you dug it.

872
00:40:05,094 --> 00:40:06,486
You want to go to jet?

873
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,588
- Jet?
- Yes, jet.

874
00:40:08,622 --> 00:40:10,457
You just want
to have sex with me now

875
00:40:10,491 --> 00:40:12,058
'cause I'm a celebrity
and all, huh?

876
00:40:12,093 --> 00:40:14,728
I want to have sex with you
right on this floor.

877
00:40:14,762 --> 00:40:16,429
Come here.

878
00:40:16,464 --> 00:40:18,298
Why should I?

879
00:40:18,332 --> 00:40:20,166
Just come.

880
00:40:25,072 --> 00:40:27,273
Well, well, well.

881
00:40:27,308 --> 00:40:30,510
So Jamal finally got up
on that stage with Hakeem.

882
00:40:32,246 --> 00:40:34,114
They looked good together.
They did.

883
00:40:34,148 --> 00:40:36,449
Yeah, don't get
used to it, 'cause...

884
00:40:36,484 --> 00:40:38,985
next time, Jamal's
gonna be out front.

885
00:40:39,020 --> 00:40:42,422
Oh, that's what you think, huh?
(Chuckles)

886
00:40:42,456 --> 00:40:44,791
You were right.

887
00:40:45,232 --> 00:40:47,160
Hakeem got it.

888
00:40:47,912 --> 00:40:49,562
He got all of it.

889
00:40:50,186 --> 00:40:52,032
But you don't.

890
00:40:52,066 --> 00:40:54,124
You're a horrible parent.

891
00:40:54,144 --> 00:40:56,036
How do you let that boy

892
00:40:56,070 --> 00:40:59,039
talk all that trash about Barack Obama

893
00:40:59,073 --> 00:41:00,507
and still let him perform?

894
00:41:00,541 --> 00:41:02,776
He's ungrateful and entitled,

895
00:41:02,810 --> 00:41:05,045
and you made him that way.

896
00:41:05,079 --> 00:41:07,480
Yeah, you'll make
him a celebrity.

897
00:41:07,515 --> 00:41:09,082
But you'll make
him a fool first.

898
00:41:09,116 --> 00:41:10,750
Lucious:
Oh, God, Cookie, I ain't trying

899
00:41:10,785 --> 00:41:13,219
to fight with you.
I just want to say I'm sorry

900
00:41:13,254 --> 00:41:15,722
for letting Kidd Fo-Fo
talk to you the way he did.

901
00:41:15,756 --> 00:41:18,256
And I dropped him because of it.

902
00:41:19,427 --> 00:41:21,254
(Footsteps approaching)

903
00:41:23,197 --> 00:41:26,478
What you need to do
is drop this yella bitch.

904
00:41:27,024 --> 00:41:28,635
Yeah, he probably will.

905
00:41:29,245 --> 00:41:31,604
When I'm your age.

906
00:41:31,639 --> 00:41:35,241
Except, by then,
he'll probably be 110.

907
00:41:49,457 --> 00:41:52,158
Where the hell is my damn car?

908
00:41:52,193 --> 00:41:54,794
I'm fittin' to fire
Porsha's dumb ass. She's slow.

909
00:41:56,430 --> 00:41:57,797
Woman: Hey, Cookie.

910
00:41:57,832 --> 00:41:59,299
- Get in the car.
- Aw, hell no.

911
00:41:59,333 --> 00:42:01,201
Get in the car. Now.

912
00:42:02,770 --> 00:42:04,504
Let's go. In the car.

913
00:42:04,538 --> 00:42:06,373
Get off of me.

914
00:42:07,908 --> 00:42:09,976
(Sighs)

915
00:42:11,526 --> 00:42:13,913
Nice to see you again, Cookie.

916
00:42:13,948 --> 00:42:16,483
Nice to see you again,
Agent Carter.

917
00:42:16,517 --> 00:42:19,152
So you've been
avoiding my calls, right?

918
00:42:19,186 --> 00:42:20,787
I ain't got nothing else
to say to you.

919
00:42:20,821 --> 00:42:22,722
We had a deal. I did my part.

920
00:42:22,757 --> 00:42:24,691
Yeah, I know we had a deal.

921
00:42:24,725 --> 00:42:26,726
But you know what, Cookie,

922
00:42:26,761 --> 00:42:29,396
we're gonna
have to change that deal.

923
00:42:30,395 --> 00:42:32,120
"Send."

924
00:42:32,500 --> 00:42:34,168
Okay.

925
00:42:36,237 --> 00:42:39,239
We need you to testify
in front of a grand jury.

926
00:42:39,273 --> 00:42:42,575
No. I cannot testify.

927
00:42:42,610 --> 00:42:44,511
If I testify, I'm dead.

928
00:42:47,348 --> 00:42:48,848
(Sighs)

929
00:42:50,487 --> 00:42:53,130
You gonna get me killed.
