515
00:23:54,726 --> 00:23:56,193
had been mixed up
in some kind of drama.
516
00:23:56,194 --> 00:23:59,096
Domestic abuse, assaults,
drug trafficking.
517
00:23:59,097 --> 00:24:01,035
You know, the kind of
drama that kills careers.
518
00:24:01,036 --> 00:24:01,956
Yeah.
519
00:24:01,957 --> 00:24:04,368
And your dad buried it all.
520
00:24:07,672 --> 00:24:10,207
I mean, I know that sounds awful now,
521
00:24:10,208 --> 00:24:13,711
but back then, obviously, he was
just protecting his artists.
522
00:24:13,712 --> 00:24:16,013
Yeah, but, Jamal,
what about the victims?
523
00:24:16,014 --> 00:24:18,115
Who-who has their back, or...
524
00:24:18,116 --> 00:24:20,117
What, it's okay that
we just bury this all?
525
00:24:20,118 --> 00:24:22,052
Well, wait, I mean, if you...
526
00:24:22,053 --> 00:24:25,823
if you look deeper in that
dossier, you'll see my name
527
00:24:25,824 --> 00:24:27,691
next to "a drug addict."
528
00:24:27,692 --> 00:24:29,426
Nobody knows what really
went down with that
529
00:24:29,427 --> 00:24:30,694
except me and my family.
530
00:24:30,695 --> 00:24:33,030
Just like you don't know what
really happened to those artists
531
00:24:33,031 --> 00:24:36,600
or my dad or whatever they did.
532
00:24:36,601 --> 00:24:38,202
The point is is that my family
533
00:24:38,203 --> 00:24:39,770
certainly don't need
the noise right now,
534
00:24:39,771 --> 00:24:41,372
so it's not like you can run it.
535
00:24:41,373 --> 00:24:43,540
Okay, so you're asking me
to choose between what's right
536
00:24:43,541 --> 00:24:44,742
and what's right for your family?
537
00:24:44,743 --> 00:24:46,810
You are my family, babe.
538
00:24:50,176 --> 00:24:52,342
Mal, you know what...
539
00:24:53,218 --> 00:24:56,750
you know what half-truths
and partial-truths can do.
540
00:24:57,222 --> 00:24:59,990
I'm a victim of a partial-truth,
you know that.
541
00:25:04,029 --> 00:25:06,630
- Truth conquers all, Jamal.
- Babe, it's not the same.
542
00:25:06,631 --> 00:25:07,798
No, baby, listen to me.
543
00:25:07,799 --> 00:25:09,700
- It's not the same.
- Jamal, listen to me.
544
00:25:09,701 --> 00:25:13,270
I know myself,
545
00:25:13,271 --> 00:25:16,407
and if I don't release this story,
546
00:25:16,408 --> 00:25:19,009
I'm gonna end up resenting you
for asking me to kill it.
547
00:25:19,010 --> 00:25:21,378
Oh, my God. I'm so sick of people
548
00:25:21,379 --> 00:25:23,847
trying to make me choose
between my fam...
549
00:25:27,886 --> 00:25:31,088
It's not the same. It's not.
550
00:25:32,857 --> 00:25:36,293
Baby, give me the dossier.
551
00:25:36,294 --> 00:25:38,362
You know I'm-a do the right thing.
552
00:25:40,298 --> 00:25:44,968
I'm gonna hold off
on the story for now, but, uh...
553
00:25:46,188 --> 00:25:49,273
I think I need time to think
about our story.
554
00:25:49,274 --> 00:25:51,408
Is that a joke?
555
00:25:51,727 --> 00:25:53,010
No.
556
00:25:53,778 --> 00:25:55,579
What exactly does that mean?
557
00:25:55,580 --> 00:26:00,084
My producers want to talk about
giving me a permanent slot,
558
00:26:00,085 --> 00:26:03,053
- in London.
- In London?
559
00:26:03,054 --> 00:26:05,356
And I'm gonna go over there
and talk to them.
560
00:26:05,357 --> 00:26:08,525
That's amazing.

what-what this is about.

got her knocked up, hooked on crack,
857
00:39:12,963 --> 00:39:16,232
and then left her to have me
and raise me on her own?
858
00:39:16,233 --> 00:39:18,206
Bet you didn't.
859
00:39:19,746 --> 00:39:21,066
He's lying, Pop.
860
00:39:21,067 --> 00:39:22,651
- No. Stop, son.
- No.
861
00:39:38,022 --> 00:39:41,291
You're gonna be Mommy's
little man today, okay?
862
00:39:41,292 --> 00:39:45,595
Today's the day
you're gonna meet your daddy.
863
00:39:48,581 --> 00:39:49,913
Go on.
864
00:39:52,236 --> 00:39:55,005
Jamal, give me the car.
865
00:39:58,276 --> 00:40:00,944
LUCIOUS: Who is it?
866
00:40:00,945 --> 00:40:02,946
Hey.
867
00:40:02,947 --> 00:40:04,815
Tracy? What are you doing here?
868
00:40:04,816 --> 00:40:06,183
I don't sling out of my house.
869
00:40:06,184 --> 00:40:08,985
Uh, no. Yeah, I know.
I-I figured. I mean,
870
00:40:08,986 --> 00:40:10,954
you know, you were going places.
871
00:40:10,955 --> 00:40:12,923
No, I've been to rehab.
872
00:40:12,924 --> 00:40:14,724
Then with my grandparents.
873
00:40:14,725 --> 00:40:16,059
Good for you.
874
00:40:16,060 --> 00:40:17,694
Um, look, like I said, I don't,
875
00:40:17,695 --> 00:40:19,062
I don't sling out of my house.
876
00:40:19,063 --> 00:40:21,364
What-what do you need?
877
00:40:21,365 --> 00:40:25,101
Um, Jeffrey... this is my son.
878
00:40:25,102 --> 00:40:27,404
Jeffrey, honey, come on.
879
00:40:30,708 --> 00:40:33,443
Come and say hi to... Lucious Lyon.
880
00:40:33,444 --> 00:40:37,414
Good-looking kid.
Hey, man, how you doing?
881
00:40:37,415 --> 00:40:40,150
Like I said, that's not
what I do from here.
882
00:40:40,151 --> 00:40:41,551
Look, if you need something,
883
00:40:41,552 --> 00:40:43,720
Bunkie's still a couple blocks away.
884
00:40:43,721 --> 00:40:46,089
He'll take care of you,
you know. Just...
885
00:40:46,090 --> 00:40:47,290
Just give him this and tell him...
886
00:40:47,291 --> 00:40:48,792
tell him it's for old time's sake.
887
00:40:48,793 --> 00:40:51,161
- And I'll look after... Hey.
- COOKIE: Lucious, who is it?
888
00:40:51,162 --> 00:40:53,763
No, baby. Cook... Now I got to go.
889
00:40:53,764 --> 00:40:55,499
Ain't nobody.
890
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:57,100
Don't come here.
891
00:40:57,101 --> 00:40:59,536
- Lucious?
- (DOOR SLAMS)
892
00:41:01,218 --> 00:41:03,206
Okay. Hey.
893
00:41:05,076 --> 00:41:06,776
Let's go.
894
00:41:21,592 --> 00:41:24,694
That was the last day
I saw my mother sober, Lucious.
895
00:41:24,695 --> 00:41:26,596
So while your other kids
896
00:41:26,597 --> 00:41:30,267
were playing
with their little Tonka trucks,
897
00:41:30,268 --> 00:41:32,202
I was left to be
my mom's dirty little secret.
898
00:41:32,203 --> 00:41:34,438
Dad, this can't be true.
899
00:41:35,507 --> 00:41:38,542
I've spent my whole life
900
00:41:38,543 --> 00:41:40,477
trying not to hate you.
901
00:41:40,478 --> 00:41:42,579
Dad, you need to say something.
You need to say something now.
902
00:41:42,580 --> 00:41:44,982
You better tell me
this is not true, Lucious.
903
00:41:44,983 --> 00:41:46,850
And I was jealous of you three.
904
00:41:46,851 --> 00:41:51,755
But today I got a taste
of what it is to be a Lyon son.
905
00:41:51,756 --> 00:41:53,490
Got my face beat in by Lucious,
906
00:41:53,491 --> 00:41:56,660
and then I found my mother
lying on the floor,
907
00:41:56,661 --> 00:41:58,962
screaming his name after he
paid her a little visit today,
908
00:41:58,963 --> 00:42:00,364
and then left her again.
909
00:42:00,365 --> 00:42:03,033
Good news is I'm not jealous anymore,
910
00:42:03,034 --> 00:42:05,135
because I wasn't raised by that man,
911
00:42:05,136 --> 00:42:09,006
and that makes me the lucky one.
912
00:42:12,043 --> 00:42:15,546
So, what, you're gonna leave?
913
00:42:18,516 --> 00:42:20,417
Move!
914
00:42:20,418 --> 00:42:22,519
KINGSLEY: Oh, here comes
one of the three blind mice.
915
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,022
- You gonna hit me, too?
- Nah.
916
00:42:25,023 --> 00:42:27,090
I'm gonna end you.
917
00:42:28,927 --> 00:42:31,695
Unless I end you first, baby bro.
918
00:42:33,832 --> 00:42:36,333
Bring it.
919
