1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,687
- Previously on Empire...
- Lola wanted to meet her daddy.
2
00:00:03,712 --> 00:00:04,945
I'm very excited to be
3
00:00:04,980 --> 00:00:07,781
the new chief executive officer
of Empire Enterprises.
4
00:00:07,816 --> 00:00:09,716
- Will you marry me?
- Yes.
5
00:00:09,752 --> 00:00:10,984
You got to tell the truth.
6
00:00:11,020 --> 00:00:11,785
Why?
7
00:00:11,820 --> 00:00:15,889
Because I did 17 years for a man
whose real name I didn't even know.
8
00:00:15,924 --> 00:00:17,324
Was my grandmother bipolar?
9
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:20,127
I was embarrassed
by her, the same way
10
00:00:20,162 --> 00:00:21,928
- I'm embarrassed by you.
- To hell with you.
11
00:00:21,964 --> 00:00:23,997
I just can't take it anymore.
12
00:00:24,033 --> 00:00:25,532
Stay with me for as long as you need.
13
00:00:25,567 --> 00:00:26,733
How you doing, Ms. Cookie?
14
00:00:26,769 --> 00:00:28,435
I thought you'd be working with Lucious.
15
00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:30,904
She was till he iced her out the video.
16
00:00:30,939 --> 00:00:33,807
Freda, did you say
something about Frank Gathers?
17
00:00:33,842 --> 00:00:34,908
Yeah, that's my father.
18
00:00:34,943 --> 00:00:37,377
Was my father. He got
murdered in prison.

Your mom comb it for you today?
28
00:00:59,935 --> 00:01:01,334
- Yes.
- Yeah?
29
00:01:01,370 --> 00:01:03,236
Ow! That hurt.
30
00:01:03,272 --> 00:01:05,706
Sorry, sweetie.
31
00:01:05,741 --> 00:01:06,873

I really do, but I just
cannot be in that house.
36
00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:16,249
Is he still having the visions?
37
00:01:16,285 --> 00:01:17,818
Actually...
38
00:01:17,853 --> 00:01:20,353
the reverend finally
realized that he does need
39
00:01:20,389 --> 00:01:21,621
to recalibrate his meds.
40
00:01:21,657 --> 00:01:23,056
Hmm. And he has
41
00:01:23,092 --> 00:01:25,726
stopped insisting that somebody
pushed me down the stairs.
42
00:01:25,761 --> 00:01:27,294
- That's a good sign.
- Yeah.
43
00:01:29,031 --> 00:01:30,130
Okay.
44
00:01:30,165 --> 00:01:31,732
I'll leave you guys to it.
45
00:01:31,767 --> 00:01:33,767
All right.
46
00:01:36,905 --> 00:01:38,105
Hi.
47
00:01:38,140 --> 00:01:39,339
- Hey.
- How are you?
48
00:01:39,374 --> 00:01:40,640
I'm good. How you doing?
49
00:01:40,676 --> 00:01:41,975
- Good.
- You look nice.
50
00:01:42,010 --> 00:01:42,976
Thank you.
51
00:01:43,011 --> 00:01:44,177
Just give me a minute.
52
00:01:44,213 --> 00:01:45,679
I'll be out of your hair.
53
00:01:45,714 --> 00:01:47,180
Oh, no, no, no, th-that's
not right, Anika.
54
00:01:47,216 --> 00:01:48,181
This is your place.
55
00:01:48,217 --> 00:01:49,516
You know, Rhonda and I, we can...
56
00:01:49,551 --> 00:01:50,684
we can go for a walk.
57
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:52,185
- Yeah.
- Oh, please.
58
00:01:52,221 --> 00:01:53,353
My place is your place, okay?
59
00:01:53,388 --> 00:01:55,055
Make yourselves at home.
60
00:01:57,092 --> 00:01:59,326
So, you're not staying
with the reverend?
61
00:02:01,263 --> 00:02:02,896
I haven't been going to church.
62
00:02:02,931 --> 00:02:04,898
I'm staying at a hotel, and
I'm not off my medication,
63
00:02:04,933 --> 00:02:06,399
so you don't have to ask.
64
00:02:06,435 --> 00:02:08,602
- Okay?
- Why haven't you been going to church?
65
00:02:08,637 --> 00:02:11,371
I been wrestling with some issues,
66
00:02:11,406 --> 00:02:13,240
spiritually, and, um...
67
00:02:15,244 --> 00:02:17,277
...I didn't think Reverend
Pryce would understand.
68
00:02:17,312 --> 00:02:19,379
Why do I find that weirdly comforting?
69
00:02:19,414 --> 00:02:20,680
Listen, what if we just...
70
00:02:20,716 --> 00:02:22,382
lease an apartment?
71
00:02:22,417 --> 00:02:24,017
You know, just a...
72
00:02:24,052 --> 00:02:25,952
a small space where we can be together.
73
00:02:25,988 --> 00:02:28,255
Now I'm thinking, like,
brand-new, you know, no...
74
00:02:28,290 --> 00:02:30,757
bad associations, no memories.
75
00:02:30,793 --> 00:02:32,859
Yeah, but then what?
76
00:02:32,895 --> 00:02:34,361
Honestly, I don't know what.
77
00:02:34,396 --> 00:02:36,797
You know, I just...
78
00:02:36,832 --> 00:02:38,598
I just know that I miss you.
79
00:02:38,634 --> 00:02:40,033
- Yeah.
- Okay? I miss us.
80
00:02:40,068 --> 00:02:41,101
We were a team.
81
00:02:41,136 --> 00:02:42,536
- Yeah.
- Us against the world.
82
00:02:42,571 --> 00:02:44,571
Ride or die, right?
83
00:02:44,606 --> 00:02:47,607
Yeah, well, we haven't been
that for a long time, Andre.
84
00:02:49,444 --> 00:02:51,812
Well, tell me what it's gonna take.
85
00:02:54,516 --> 00:02:56,750
For us to be on the same team again?
86
00:02:56,785 --> 00:02:58,685
That's right.
87
00:03:00,556 --> 00:03:03,123
I think that we need to
want the same thing.
88
00:03:03,158 --> 00:03:05,325
When were you happiest?
89
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:10,497
When... we were excited
about our future, I guess,
90
00:03:10,532 --> 00:03:14,901
and wanted to rule the world
and take over Empire.
91
00:03:16,305 --> 00:03:17,971
Oh, my God. Whoa.
92
00:03:19,675 --> 00:03:22,609
Anika? Oh, my God, are you okay?
93
00:03:22,644 --> 00:03:24,110
Oh, I'm so sorry.
94
00:03:24,146 --> 00:03:25,679
Do you think it was
something that we ate?
95
00:03:25,714 --> 00:03:27,147
I feel fine.
96
00:03:27,182 --> 00:03:29,349
No, it wasn't anything we ate.
97
00:03:29,384 --> 00:03:31,785
Well, what do you think it... it is?
98
00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:34,521
I cannot.
99
00:03:34,556 --> 00:03:36,823
Especially not after what
happened to you guys.
100
00:03:41,463 --> 00:03:42,762
Are you pregnant?
101
00:03:46,368 --> 00:03:48,468
Who's the father?
102
00:03:53,208 --> 00:03:55,542
Oh, boy.
103
00:03:55,577 --> 00:03:58,178
It's Hakeem.

It's so gritty, so real.
113
00:04:26,742 --> 00:04:29,743
The whole music business,
the whole world...
114
00:04:29,778 --> 00:04:33,380
all anyone is talking about
is little Dwight Walker.
115
00:04:33,415 --> 00:04:35,115
A.K.A. my boy.
116
00:04:35,150 --> 00:04:36,950
My man. Thank you for coming.
117
00:04:36,985 --> 00:04:38,785
Lucious Lyon, wouldn't miss it.
118
00:04:38,820 --> 00:04:40,020
You know, that's the Lucious Lyon
119
00:04:40,055 --> 00:04:41,488
that inspired me to buy into Empire
120
00:04:41,523 --> 00:04:43,590
years before he took the company public.
121
00:04:43,625 --> 00:04:46,192
Look, I know I speak for all
the majority shareholders
122
00:04:46,228 --> 00:04:49,696
when I say... we want
you back in charge.
123
00:04:49,731 --> 00:04:50,897
Hear, hear.
124
00:04:50,933 --> 00:04:52,198
Look, I'll tell you one thing,
125
00:04:52,234 --> 00:04:54,134
I really appreciate the
vote of confidence,
126
00:04:54,169 --> 00:04:56,169
but the board has spoken.
127
00:04:56,204 --> 00:04:58,672
They've anointed Hakeem, and
all I can do is support that.
128
00:04:58,707 --> 00:05:01,608
The board answers to the shareholders.
129
00:05:01,643 --> 00:05:03,443
Besides, Hakeem's support was
130
00:05:03,478 --> 00:05:05,245
entirely predicated on Mimi Whiteman.
131
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:08,014
May she rest in peace.
132
00:05:08,050 --> 00:05:10,350
But you know what,
133
00:05:10,385 --> 00:05:12,385
after hearing you guys' thoughts...
134
00:05:12,421 --> 00:05:15,655
I'm gonna think about it long and hard.
135
00:05:15,691 --> 00:05:18,959
If the board calls on me to serve,
136
00:05:18,994 --> 00:05:21,695
I will consider it.
137
00:05:21,730 --> 00:05:24,331
We're counting on you, Lucious.
Empire needs you.
138
00:05:24,366 --> 00:05:26,199
Nobody else can do what you do.
139
00:05:26,234 --> 00:05:28,234
You're right about that.
140
00:05:35,577 --> 00:05:37,777
I am so impressed with you.
141
00:05:37,813 --> 00:05:38,979
Well, thank you.
142
00:05:39,014 --> 00:05:41,181
So, when do we get to talk again?
143
00:05:41,216 --> 00:05:42,816
Well, just call me,
144
00:05:42,851 --> 00:05:44,217
and we'll arrange.
145
00:05:44,252 --> 00:05:46,953
Well, I'd love to put some
of your thoughts to work.
146
00:05:46,989 --> 00:05:51,291
Let's do that. Have a great night.
147
00:05:51,326 --> 00:05:53,226
You know, you done crossed a line.
148
00:05:53,261 --> 00:05:56,329
I mean, you really crossed
a line this time, Lucious.
149
00:05:57,666 --> 00:06:00,600
What you doing up in here
with all these white people?
150
00:06:00,635 --> 00:06:03,069
Winning their hearts and minds, my dear.
151
00:06:03,105 --> 00:06:06,272
Yeah, it sounds like you
winning something else.
152
00:06:06,308 --> 00:06:07,741
You sound a little jealous.
153
00:06:07,776 --> 00:06:09,309
Oh, please, stop flattering yourself.
154
00:06:09,344 --> 00:06:11,811
I'm here because I want to make sure
155
00:06:11,847 --> 00:06:13,513
if you do something against Hakeem
156
00:06:13,548 --> 00:06:15,548
at that shareholders
meeting that you tell me,
157
00:06:15,584 --> 00:06:18,351
'cause I'm trying to bring
this family back together.
158
00:06:19,821 --> 00:06:21,454
Okay, how did I cross the line?
159
00:06:21,490 --> 00:06:23,523
Uh, Freda Gatz?
160
00:06:23,558 --> 00:06:25,792
Excuse me, Gathers.
161
00:06:27,896 --> 00:06:30,497
She's not a problem.
162
00:06:30,532 --> 00:06:32,098
You killed her father.
163
00:06:32,134 --> 00:06:34,034
I don't know what you're talking about,
164
00:06:34,069 --> 00:06:36,436
but I was nowhere near
that man when he died,
165
00:06:36,471 --> 00:06:39,005
and you are bone deep with me.
166
00:06:39,041 --> 00:06:42,709

00:07:41,069 --> 00:07:42,335

That was so dope!

Yo, you and Freda are like
Ri-Ri and Eminem in reverse.
225
00:08:38,469 --> 00:08:39,768
- Oh, my goodness.
- Y'all about to kill it.
226
00:08:39,804 --> 00:08:41,303
You got a hit, boy!
227
00:08:41,331 --> 00:08:42,390
Ma.
228
00:08:42,415 --> 00:08:43,226
It's dope, right?
229
00:08:43,251 --> 00:08:45,085
Yeah, it's a'ight.
230
00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:47,038
You're not serious. Look...
231
00:08:47,593 --> 00:08:49,426
I'm not saying the song's not cool.
232
00:08:49,461 --> 00:08:50,594
I-I'm just saying
233
00:08:50,629 --> 00:08:53,730
that I know you did this
track with Freda Gatz
234
00:08:53,766 --> 00:08:54,998
to get at your father.
235
00:08:55,034 --> 00:08:56,099
That's all I'm saying.
236
00:08:56,135 --> 00:08:57,634
I can't lie about that,
237
00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:59,005
but...
238
00:08:59,068 --> 00:09:01,235
I'm not trying to just get at him.
239
00:09:01,270 --> 00:09:03,504
I'm trying to blow
past him, which is why
240
00:09:03,539 --> 00:09:05,639
the Black and White album needs
to be released before the ASAs.
241
00:09:05,675 --> 00:09:06,740
Right.
242
00:09:06,776 --> 00:09:08,075
But all anyone's talking about
243
00:09:08,110 --> 00:09:10,344
right now is Lucious's
244
00:09:10,379 --> 00:09:12,346
Dwight Walker video. Right? Am I wrong?
245
00:09:12,381 --> 00:09:14,415
I mean, I just don't know how
you gonna do it with that
246
00:09:14,450 --> 00:09:16,584
- Freda Gatz girl, but good luck!
- Ma, you wrong, you wrong.
247
00:09:16,619 --> 00:09:18,619
Oh, I'm wrong? I'm wrong? Okay, wait.
248
00:09:18,654 --> 00:09:19,887
- I'm wrong?
- Okay, okay, a'ight, a'ight.
249
00:09:19,922 --> 00:09:21,188
- Ain't never wrong.
- A'ight, a'ight.
250
00:09:21,223 --> 00:09:22,556
But come on, all of the stories
251
00:09:22,592 --> 00:09:24,258
that you told me about
Lucious being in his zone.
252
00:09:24,293 --> 00:09:25,726
Mm-hmm.
253
00:09:25,761 --> 00:09:27,928
Y'all losing track of time when
you were creating his classics.
254
00:09:27,964 --> 00:09:29,096
That's what me and Freda have.
255
00:09:30,132 --> 00:09:32,299
Fine, Jamal, fine.
256
00:09:32,335 --> 00:09:33,901
You-you got it all under control,
257
00:09:33,936 --> 00:09:35,402
but you need to tweak that
258
00:09:35,438 --> 00:09:36,437
'cause it's not 100, baby.
259
00:09:36,472 --> 00:09:39,073
All right.
260
00:09:39,108 --> 00:09:41,241
And then I'm-a
have Cookie speak on
261
00:09:41,277 --> 00:09:43,711
where she's going with all the
Empire music divisions, okay?
262
00:09:43,746 --> 00:09:45,212
Why ain't she here?
263
00:09:45,247 --> 00:09:47,381
I told you, she's trying to
get Tiana back to perform.
264
00:09:47,416 --> 00:09:49,450
Okay, good. Steve and Chicken,
why don't y'all run the stats
265
00:09:49,485 --> 00:09:50,651
on the fashion pre-orders, so...
266
00:09:51,721 --> 00:09:53,253
Dre.
267
00:09:53,289 --> 00:09:54,421
Bro, you made it.
268
00:09:54,457 --> 00:09:55,656
Hey.
269
00:09:55,691 --> 00:09:57,458
Chicken, um, give us a few.
270
00:09:57,493 --> 00:09:59,627
Yeah, Steve and I will go over
the stats for the fashion show.
271
00:09:59,662 --> 00:10:01,662
Yeah, no problem.
272
00:10:05,601 --> 00:10:07,334
Baby brother.
273
00:10:07,370 --> 00:10:08,502
- My man.
- Good?
274
00:10:08,537 --> 00:10:09,503
Yeah, yeah.
275
00:10:09,538 --> 00:10:10,604
You sure you're all right?
276
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,339
I'm-I'm good.
277
00:10:12,375 --> 00:10:16,343
I been... I been staying at a...
hotel, but I'm-I'm good.
278
00:10:16,379 --> 00:10:17,911
Talk to Rhonda?
279
00:10:17,947 --> 00:10:20,247
We're talking.
280
00:10:20,282 --> 00:10:22,416
But, hey, listen, I, um...
281
00:10:22,451 --> 00:10:25,252
I want to let you guys know
that I'm-I'm... I'm back.
282
00:10:25,287 --> 00:10:27,855
Okay? I'm on board for the
shareholders meeting.
283
00:10:27,890 --> 00:10:30,090
I'll, uh, do the CFO presentation
284
00:10:30,126 --> 00:10:31,959
and, uh, I'll help you
and Cookie prepare.
285
00:10:31,994 --> 00:10:34,361
Now you know you got to
bring your A-game, right?
286
00:10:34,397 --> 00:10:36,263
I know. But are you okay?
287
00:10:36,298 --> 00:10:37,998
I'm all good, baby brother.
288
00:10:38,034 --> 00:10:41,835
Have you, um, talked to...?
289
00:10:41,871 --> 00:10:44,605
Lucious and I actually just spoke.
290
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,839
Yeah?
291
00:10:45,875 --> 00:10:47,841
Yeah.
292
00:10:47,877 --> 00:10:49,476
Was he groveling at your feet?
293
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,646
You better not have apologized.
294
00:10:52,682 --> 00:10:54,682
I'm onto his games, Jamal.
295
00:10:54,717 --> 00:10:56,850
All right, the old man wants to talk,
296
00:10:56,886 --> 00:11:00,320
and I'm ready to listen, so, uh...
297
00:11:00,356 --> 00:11:02,322
Tell me what you got planned. What's up?
298
00:11:02,358 --> 00:11:03,724
Hey, check this out.
299
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:06,193
So, Mom is bringing out
Tiana to perform, right?
300
00:11:06,228 --> 00:11:08,228
So, what you think about
J Poppa coming out
301
00:11:08,264 --> 00:11:10,130
to perform for the churchgoing folk?
302
00:11:10,166 --> 00:11:11,331
It was Becky idea.
303
00:11:11,367 --> 00:11:12,733
That's a smart idea.
304
00:11:12,768 --> 00:11:13,901
But the shareholders meeting
305
00:11:13,936 --> 00:11:15,703
is more than just a show, all right?
306
00:11:15,738 --> 00:11:18,038
It's an opportunity for
management to engage
307
00:11:18,074 --> 00:11:19,406
in a face-to-face dialogue
308
00:11:19,442 --> 00:11:20,641
with the shareholders.
309
00:11:20,676 --> 00:11:23,243
And the shareholders will engage.
310
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:24,545
I guarantee you that, okay?
311
00:11:24,580 --> 00:11:28,882
These meetings... one wrong
word, one wrong number,
312
00:11:28,918 --> 00:11:30,384
they get hostile fast.
313
00:11:30,419 --> 00:11:33,353
So your message about all of
Empire has got to be on point.
314
00:11:33,389 --> 00:11:35,022
You understand?
315
00:11:35,057 --> 00:11:37,191
Lucious is gonna be a challenge for you.
316
00:11:37,226 --> 00:11:39,259
- I don't want him there.
- He's a shareholder, all right?
317
00:11:39,295 --> 00:11:41,695
Anybody with even one share in
the company is free to attend.
318
00:11:41,731 --> 00:11:42,730
And you should know,
319
00:11:42,765 --> 00:11:44,832
to the shareholders, big or small,
320
00:11:44,867 --> 00:11:46,667
he's still the face of Empire.
321
00:11:46,702 --> 00:11:48,902
Especially now with the
whole Dwight Walker video.
322
00:11:48,938 --> 00:11:51,905
He's got a whole new
surge of support, so...
323
00:11:51,941 --> 00:11:54,541
he's definitely gonna come for you.
324
00:11:54,577 --> 00:11:56,977
So what should I do?
325
00:11:57,012 --> 00:11:58,445
Let's review any pending deals you have.
326
00:11:58,481 --> 00:12:00,748
Which is most important to you?
327
00:12:00,783 --> 00:12:03,016
Well, I got this capsule deal with Saks
328
00:12:03,052 --> 00:12:04,284
I did with Antony & Cleopatra.
329
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:05,753
It's gonna be big for the company.
330
00:12:05,788 --> 00:12:08,222
That's what he'll go after.
331
00:12:16,599 --> 00:12:18,198
All right, fellas, remember,
332
00:12:18,234 --> 00:12:19,466

333
00:12:19,502 --> 00:12:21,034

00:13:02,839 --> 00:13:03,565
But of course,
353
00:13:03,612 --> 00:13:05,278
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
354
00:13:05,314 --> 00:13:06,780
You gonna give me all my Empire
355
00:13:06,815 --> 00:13:10,438
Antony & Cleopatra merchandise
before the shareholders meeting,
356
00:13:10,463 --> 00:13:12,830
or all the security footage
is going to the police.
357
00:13:14,834 --> 00:13:17,935
I wrote a song in the joint
about people like you
358
00:13:17,970 --> 00:13:20,738
called "Snitch Bitch."
359
00:13:20,773 --> 00:13:24,241
But of course, we don't
drop dimes in this family.
360
00:13:24,277 --> 00:13:26,277
You gonna take me out like Jamal?
361
00:13:26,312 --> 00:13:28,279
Or treat me like garbage like Dre?
362
00:13:28,314 --> 00:13:29,814
But know one thing, old man,
363
00:13:29,849 --> 00:13:32,450
I ain't never bowing down to you.
364
00:13:32,485 --> 00:13:35,786
I thought you might say
something like that.
365
00:13:40,326 --> 00:13:42,359
You might want to answer that.
366
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,499
Hello.
367
00:13:48,534 --> 00:13:50,468
There's no equipment, like, nothing.
368
00:13:50,503 --> 00:13:52,470
No lights, no... no instruments.
369
00:13:52,505 --> 00:13:54,371
The only thing that's here is wardrobe.
370
00:13:54,407 --> 00:13:55,673
What? What happened?
371
00:13:55,708 --> 00:13:58,008
The roadies got stopped and
searched on the way here.
372
00:13:58,044 --> 00:14:01,545
The police found drugs and
confiscated everything.
373
00:14:01,581 --> 00:14:03,547
All right, I'm-a hit you back.
374
00:14:04,817 --> 00:14:07,618
Dude, you planted drugs on my trucks?
375
00:14:07,653 --> 00:14:09,887
What if I did?
376
00:14:09,922 --> 00:14:12,323
It's just a simple boss move.
377
00:14:12,358 --> 00:14:15,025
I mean, any half-assed CEO
should know how to...
378
00:14:15,061 --> 00:14:16,727
clap back.
379
00:14:16,762 --> 00:14:20,531
But... you don't bow down.
380
00:14:32,678 --> 00:14:35,446
There we go.
381
00:14:35,481 --> 00:14:38,449
Damn, that's fire, Mal.
382
00:14:38,484 --> 00:14:39,783
That's for you and Freda, huh?
383
00:14:39,819 --> 00:14:41,051
Mm-hmm.
384
00:14:41,087 --> 00:14:42,286
Well, you weren't lying when you said
385
00:14:42,321 --> 00:14:43,721
you was gonna knock your father off.
386
00:14:43,756 --> 00:14:45,222
Look, Ma, I know that you are somehow
387
00:14:45,258 --> 00:14:47,458
caught up in his web right
now, so if you are coming
388
00:14:47,493 --> 00:14:49,160
to tell me to pump my
brakes, just please...
389
00:14:49,195 --> 00:14:51,428
That's not what I'm here to tell you.
390
00:14:51,464 --> 00:14:53,497
I think competition is healthy.
391
00:14:53,533 --> 00:14:56,600
As long as you're using
it to push yourself.
392
00:14:58,905 --> 00:15:01,071
So what's up?
393
00:15:01,107 --> 00:15:02,673
Nothing. Never mind.
394
00:15:02,708 --> 00:15:06,076
I... had a surprise for you,
but you got it under control.
395
00:15:06,112 --> 00:15:07,845
I'm sure you and Freda got what it takes
396
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,414
to knock Lucious off his throne.
397
00:15:10,449 --> 00:15:12,716
Oh, my good... Ma.
398
00:15:14,754 --> 00:15:16,754
Come on, what is it?
399
00:15:16,789 --> 00:15:21,091
Well, it's just that I set
you up with a certain...
400
00:15:21,127 --> 00:15:25,229
high-profile celebrity
superstar emcee who just broke
401
00:15:25,264 --> 00:15:27,598
all kinds of records with her single
402
00:15:27,633 --> 00:15:31,368
by doing 2.3 million
downloads in one day.
403
00:15:31,404 --> 00:15:34,305
You did not get Stacee Run-Run.
404
00:15:38,377 --> 00:15:39,510
Get the hell up out of here.
405
00:15:39,545 --> 00:15:40,878
- Hey!
- Cookie.
406
00:15:40,913 --> 00:15:42,112
I can't believe this.
407
00:15:42,148 --> 00:15:43,614
Oh, hell yeah, you can.
408
00:15:43,649 --> 00:15:45,082
- How you doing?
- Good.
409
00:15:45,117 --> 00:15:46,884
Believe it or not,
410
00:15:46,919 --> 00:15:49,620
couple years ago, I crept up
in the Incognito Coffee House
411
00:15:49,655 --> 00:15:51,789
on Bleeker Street, and
I caught your show.
412
00:15:51,824 --> 00:15:54,758
And I knew right then, yo'
ass was gonna blow sky high.
413
00:15:54,794 --> 00:15:56,227
Thank you so much.
414
00:15:56,262 --> 00:15:57,628
Congratulations on everything.
415
00:15:57,663 --> 00:15:58,929
Thank you.
416
00:15:58,965 --> 00:16:00,798
I can't wait to get
them into the studio.
417
00:16:00,833 --> 00:16:02,566
- It's gonna be sick.
- We'll lay down the music
418
00:16:02,602 --> 00:16:03,767
- and record verses tomorrow.
- Mm-hmm.
419
00:16:03,803 --> 00:16:05,002
Stacee wants Auto-Tune.
420
00:16:05,037 --> 00:16:06,303
- You're good with that?
- I'm good with that.
421
00:16:06,339 --> 00:16:07,304
Also, Stacee sings the bridge, and...
422
00:16:07,340 --> 00:16:08,372
I'm good with all of that.
423
00:16:08,407 --> 00:16:10,207
I just want the promos.
424
00:16:10,243 --> 00:16:12,109
Well, I'm-a personally promote our song
425
00:16:12,144 --> 00:16:14,645
on every public appearance I
have leading up to the ASAs.
426
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,480
My Twitter and my 'grams.
427
00:16:16,515 --> 00:16:18,148
And she'll shout-out the
Black and White album
428
00:16:18,184 --> 00:16:20,251
- every chance she gets.
- Yes!
429
00:16:20,286 --> 00:16:22,152
Maybe we should rethink
the sequence of the tracks,
430
00:16:22,188 --> 00:16:23,554
you know what I'm saying, like,
431
00:16:23,589 --> 00:16:25,556
- so that this can get the upfront shine.
- Okay.
432
00:16:25,591 --> 00:16:27,358
You know, maybe move Freda
to three and seven.
433
00:16:27,393 --> 00:16:28,792
I thought we killed that.
434
00:16:28,828 --> 00:16:29,960
Killed what?
435
00:16:29,996 --> 00:16:31,929
Uh, look, give us a second.
436
00:16:31,964 --> 00:16:33,597
Help yourself to some snacks.
437
00:16:33,633 --> 00:16:36,634
Come here, let me talk
to you for a second.
438
00:16:37,903 --> 00:16:39,703
- Uh, look...
- Mom?
439
00:16:39,739 --> 00:16:41,405
I just found out that Stacee has
440
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,108
an exclusivity clause in her contract,
441
00:16:44,143 --> 00:16:48,045
so... no other female rapper
can be on your album.
442
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,447
Ma, I can't just dump Freda.
443
00:16:50,483 --> 00:16:52,650
It's not me, baby, it's Stacee.
444
00:16:52,685 --> 00:16:54,551
Look, you're the one stressing
445
00:16:54,587 --> 00:16:56,887
'cause you want to drop
your album before the ASAs.
446
00:16:56,922 --> 00:16:58,289
I'm just trying to help you.
447
00:16:58,324 --> 00:17:00,457
Two tracks with Stacee Run-Run?
448
00:17:00,493 --> 00:17:03,127
Boy, you will give Lucious
a run-run for his money.
449
00:17:05,531 --> 00:17:09,333
Son, say hello to your
grandmother, Leah Mary Walker.
450
00:17:09,368 --> 00:17:11,335
I don't know what to say to her.
451
00:17:11,370 --> 00:17:12,970
Whatever you got to say, say it quickly.
452
00:17:13,005 --> 00:17:14,004
It's cold out here.
453
00:17:16,242 --> 00:17:17,975
You know, the funny thing about my mama,
454
00:17:18,010 --> 00:17:20,844
you'd never know who
was gonna answer back.
455
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,682
Some days, it was this...
456
00:17:24,717 --> 00:17:28,352
terrifying and abusive woman.
457
00:17:28,387 --> 00:17:31,655
But, hell, what I remember
most about my mama
458
00:17:31,691 --> 00:17:34,892
was how she could make the
sun come up at midnight.
459
00:17:34,927 --> 00:17:37,895
Yeah, that's exactly
how Rhonda describes
460
00:17:37,930 --> 00:17:39,596
what it's like to live with me.
461
00:17:45,738 --> 00:17:47,371
Hi, Grandma. It's Andre.
462
00:17:47,406 --> 00:17:49,106
I'm-I'm your oldest grandson.
463
00:17:51,744 --> 00:17:53,744
I wish I could've met you.
464
00:17:55,448 --> 00:17:59,083
Medical science has made
things more hopeful
465
00:17:59,118 --> 00:18:01,485
for people like us.
466
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,253
If you were still here with us,
467
00:18:03,289 --> 00:18:04,988
today you could stand a chance
468
00:18:05,024 --> 00:18:08,659
of being whoever you dreamed of being...
469
00:18:08,694 --> 00:18:11,762
on your good days.
470
00:18:14,100 --> 00:18:16,200
Wish she could have met you, too, man.
471
00:18:16,235 --> 00:18:18,001
Really proud of you, son.
472
00:18:18,037 --> 00:18:20,671
You know, whenever you say that,
you have an agenda, so...
473
00:18:20,706 --> 00:18:22,873
I mean it.
474
00:18:22,908 --> 00:18:24,875
Yeah, there's a lot of things I'm trying
475
00:18:24,910 --> 00:18:26,076
to accomplish right now
476
00:18:26,112 --> 00:18:27,711
that I could use your help with, but...
477
00:18:27,747 --> 00:18:29,113
I'm not going against my brothers.
478
00:18:29,148 --> 00:18:31,782
I'm not asking you to go
against your Christian faith.
479
00:18:31,817 --> 00:18:34,918
I know you live by the
straight and narrow.
480
00:18:36,622 --> 00:18:38,222
What, you don't?
481
00:18:38,257 --> 00:18:41,091
I'm not...
482
00:18:41,127 --> 00:18:43,260
I'm not sure.
483
00:18:45,464 --> 00:18:48,432
Look, I understand.
484
00:18:48,467 --> 00:18:51,402
You know, how can you worship some God
485
00:18:51,437 --> 00:18:53,871
that let your babies die, or...
486
00:18:53,906 --> 00:18:56,039
war and hunger.
487
00:18:56,075 --> 00:18:57,775
Look, at the end of the day,
488
00:18:57,810 --> 00:19:00,310
you got to have faith in yourself.
489
00:19:00,346 --> 00:19:05,315
'Cause you the one that pulled
you up out of the lion's den.
490
00:19:05,351 --> 00:19:07,885
I know you and your brothers,
491
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,887
y'all all want the same thing I want,
492
00:19:09,922 --> 00:19:12,322
and that's for our Empire to be great,
493
00:19:12,358 --> 00:19:15,092
but you know that I'm
the best man for that.
494
00:19:15,127 --> 00:19:17,528
I want us all to try to be better.
495
00:19:20,132 --> 00:19:22,933
Being that woman's son...
496
00:19:22,968 --> 00:19:26,503
gave me a whole lot of gifts, man.
497
00:19:26,539 --> 00:19:29,373
But she also did a lot of damage to me.
498
00:19:32,144 --> 00:19:34,845
But I know you and me working together,
499
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,714
man, we could fix a whole
lot of that stuff.
500
00:19:38,537 --> 00:19:40,037
So what do you say? We good?
501
00:19:46,936 --> 00:19:49,574
So exactly why is the new
fashion line being delayed?
502
00:19:49,943 --> 00:19:51,209
It's not being delayed.
503
00:19:51,244 --> 00:19:53,105
It's being refined based
on testing, people.
504
00:19:53,130 --> 00:19:54,759
No, no. You can't say that.
505
00:19:54,802 --> 00:19:57,869
That makes it sound like the
clothes did bad on the test.
506
00:19:57,905 --> 00:20:00,672
Or I can say my dad stole
them to sabotage me.
507
00:20:00,708 --> 00:20:02,774
No, you will not say that either.
508
00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:05,477
Just say there's been some minor
factory delays and the line
509
00:20:05,512 --> 00:20:06,645
will still be in stores by Christmas.
510
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,213
Nah, nah, man. I just told you,
511
00:20:08,248 --> 00:20:10,482
I need something to announce
to blow everybody away.
512
00:20:10,517 --> 00:20:11,850
So where's Dre at?
513
00:20:11,885 --> 00:20:13,485
He's supposed to prep me
with the Swiftstream thing.
514
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,435
Andre said there's
been a hiccup with the app.
515
00:20:16,536 --> 00:20:18,669
He has our tech team solving
it, but it messed with
516
00:20:18,704 --> 00:20:20,404
the first quarter numbers, so...
517
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,956
you can't bring up profits
because we don't have any yet.
518
00:20:23,981 --> 00:20:25,514
Tell Dad to back the hell off.
519
00:20:25,549 --> 00:20:26,948
Okay, all right, hey.
520
00:20:26,984 --> 00:20:28,383
Can y'all give us five minutes, please?
521
00:20:28,418 --> 00:20:30,118
- Thank you, I'm sorry.
- Ten minutes.
522
00:20:30,153 --> 00:20:31,152
Okay.
523
00:20:37,561 --> 00:20:40,815
Look, I doubt your father
had anything to do with it.
524
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:41,941
Whose side are you on?
525
00:20:42,004 --> 00:20:43,937
I'm not on anybody's side, Hak...
526
00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:46,290
Would you sit down, please?
527
00:20:48,527 --> 00:20:51,199
All I ever want is what's
best for my family,
528
00:20:51,293 --> 00:20:53,293
and right now, that is you killing it
529
00:20:53,329 --> 00:20:54,895
at the shareholders meeting.
530
00:20:54,930 --> 00:20:57,764
And if you are the man for
the job, then you have
531
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,500
my support, 1,000%.
532
00:20:59,575 --> 00:21:00,674
But you really need
533
00:21:00,709 --> 00:21:02,309
to get your act together,
534
00:21:02,344 --> 00:21:04,378
'cause you getting emotional
in these meetings,
535
00:21:04,413 --> 00:21:05,612
it's childish.
536
00:21:05,648 --> 00:21:06,713
Get it together.
537
00:21:06,749 --> 00:21:08,382

What's up, bro?
548
00:21:34,612 --> 00:21:35,745
Yo, that's dope.
549
00:21:35,780 --> 00:21:37,547
Yeah, just tightening up
this verse a little bit.
550
00:21:37,582 --> 00:21:38,548
You feeling it?
551
00:21:38,583 --> 00:21:40,683
Yeah, it's hard.
552
00:21:40,719 --> 00:21:42,318
Let's just hope it flies
with Mama Cookie.
553
00:21:42,353 --> 00:21:44,320
Yeah.
554
00:21:44,355 --> 00:21:46,389
Look, Freda, I got to talk
to you about something.
555
00:21:46,424 --> 00:21:48,057
For sure. What's up?
556
00:21:48,093 --> 00:21:50,893
Well, Mama Cookie...
557
00:21:50,929 --> 00:21:53,429
set me up, uh, to do a
song with Stacee Run-Run
558
00:21:53,465 --> 00:21:55,064
for the Black and White album.
559
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:57,066
Bro, that is big!
560
00:21:57,102 --> 00:21:59,102
That chick is official
status right there!
561
00:21:59,137 --> 00:22:00,770
Yeah.
562
00:22:00,805 --> 00:22:02,772
Only thing is, is that she got me
563
00:22:02,807 --> 00:22:04,440
on this exclusivity thing,
564
00:22:04,476 --> 00:22:07,510
so I got to choose between her or you.
565
00:22:12,050 --> 00:22:14,984
It's cool.
566
00:22:15,019 --> 00:22:17,053
I mean, I don't want
to stop what we doing.
567
00:22:17,088 --> 00:22:19,255
I mean, 'cause it's pure magic.
It's just, you know,
568
00:22:19,290 --> 00:22:21,457
with everything I'm up
against with my dad.
569
00:22:21,493 --> 00:22:22,825
Look, man, I get it.
570
00:22:22,861 --> 00:22:24,827
Stacee Run-Run's spit
game is next level.
571
00:22:24,863 --> 00:22:28,097
She hot across the world.
572
00:22:28,133 --> 00:22:30,233
You can't choose me over her.
573
00:22:30,268 --> 00:22:32,401
Hey, look, I promise you
that after I'm done,
574
00:22:32,437 --> 00:22:34,837
then... we'll pick up where we left off.
575
00:22:34,873 --> 00:22:37,140
Come on, man, it ain't no
need to make promises.
576
00:22:37,175 --> 00:22:39,442
Just do you and win.
577
00:22:39,477 --> 00:22:41,477
Ain't that the point of all this?
578
00:22:45,617 --> 00:22:47,450
Yesterday, I told Dad
579
00:22:47,485 --> 00:22:49,685
I wanted us all to try to be better.
580
00:22:49,721 --> 00:22:52,588
So... we all know
581
00:22:52,624 --> 00:22:54,590
that sometimes this family
582
00:22:54,626 --> 00:22:56,626
doesn't treat people
as well as we should.
583
00:22:56,661 --> 00:22:58,361
But I've seen that we can change,
584
00:22:58,396 --> 00:22:59,862
that we can rise above our past,
585
00:22:59,898 --> 00:23:01,931
and I'm hoping that
we can do that today,
586
00:23:01,966 --> 00:23:03,366
because there's someone here
587
00:23:03,401 --> 00:23:05,301
who has something really
important to tell you.
588
00:23:05,336 --> 00:23:07,203
Rhonda?
589
00:23:10,842 --> 00:23:13,309
Uh, what the
hell is she doing here?!
590
00:23:13,344 --> 00:23:14,544
Anika.
591
00:23:14,579 --> 00:23:16,179
What would
this woman have to say
592
00:23:16,214 --> 00:23:18,714
that would be of any interest
to anybody in this family?
593
00:23:18,750 --> 00:23:21,784
I'm just asking that
everybody remain civil.
594
00:23:21,820 --> 00:23:24,387
Okay, Anika, please.
595
00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:28,958
I'm pregnant.
596
00:23:28,993 --> 00:23:31,093
So?
597
00:23:31,129 --> 00:23:33,329
It's Hakeem's.
598
00:23:33,364 --> 00:23:34,764
What?!
599
00:23:34,799 --> 00:23:37,800
Are you that thirsty, you trick-ass ho?!
600
00:23:37,836 --> 00:23:39,735
- Wait, Ma. Hold on, hold on one second.
- Are you serious?!
601
00:23:39,771 --> 00:23:42,071
Did you know?
602
00:23:42,106 --> 00:23:43,739
No!
603
00:23:43,775 --> 00:23:45,908
Look, how I even know the baby mine?
604
00:23:45,944 --> 00:23:47,910
You're the only one I've
been with after your father.
605
00:23:47,946 --> 00:23:49,478
And you want us to believe that?
606
00:23:49,514 --> 00:23:51,247
I'm happy to do a paternity test.
607
00:23:51,282 --> 00:23:54,951
So you don't know how to
use a condom, stupid?!
608
00:23:54,986 --> 00:23:58,421
Anika, um... you gonna keep it?
609
00:23:58,456 --> 00:23:59,989
I begged her to.
610
00:24:00,024 --> 00:24:01,824
You did what, stupid?
611
00:24:01,860 --> 00:24:04,427
This family has already
tragically lost an heir.
612
00:24:04,462 --> 00:24:05,628
This family uses the term "heir"
613
00:24:05,663 --> 00:24:07,163
as if we're in a Shakespearian play.
614
00:24:07,198 --> 00:24:08,464
Technically, if we're
talking about heirs,
615
00:24:08,499 --> 00:24:09,665
we need to find Lola.
616
00:24:09,701 --> 00:24:10,967
No, we don't.
617
00:24:12,170 --> 00:24:13,569
You're not the father.
618
00:24:13,605 --> 00:24:15,271
How do you know that, Lucious?
619
00:24:15,306 --> 00:24:17,573
Had a DNA test done.
620
00:24:17,609 --> 00:24:19,775
Her daddy's name is, uh, Marcus Jones.
621
00:24:21,246 --> 00:24:22,211
Great.
622
00:24:22,247 --> 00:24:23,346
Sorry.
623
00:24:23,381 --> 00:24:24,580
I guess that's that, huh?
624
00:24:28,319 --> 00:24:30,353
Okay, little lady.
625
00:24:30,388 --> 00:24:32,488
What do you want?
626
00:24:34,392 --> 00:24:35,892
I want something very valuable,
627
00:24:35,927 --> 00:24:38,194
something almost priceless.
628
00:24:38,229 --> 00:24:39,362
Right. So, Lucious,
629
00:24:39,397 --> 00:24:41,030
why don't you just write
this bitch a check
630
00:24:41,065 --> 00:24:42,498
so she can get up out of here.
631
00:24:42,533 --> 00:24:43,766
Cookie, please.
632
00:24:43,801 --> 00:24:46,035
Let her finish.
633
00:24:46,069 --> 00:24:47,869
I want my child to have a family.
634
00:24:47,906 --> 00:24:49,739
Girl, bye.
635
00:24:49,774 --> 00:24:53,476
Look, I-I know that things
haven't been pleasant among us all.
636
00:24:53,511 --> 00:24:58,281
And I fully recognize the
role that I played in that.
637
00:24:58,316 --> 00:25:03,786
I am taking full
responsibility for my actions.
638
00:25:06,457 --> 00:25:08,324
I'm sorry.
639
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,493
I'm trying to make amends.
640
00:25:12,063 --> 00:25:14,954
I hope that you will all think about it.
641
00:25:28,110 --> 00:25:32,053

670
00:26:56,503 --> 00:27:00,605
That was Lyon Dynasty artist Tiana,
671
00:27:00,641 --> 00:27:04,509
ladies and gentlemen, fresh
off of her sold-out tour.
672
00:27:04,545 --> 00:27:09,948
And now that Lyon Dynasty is back
under the Empire banner, that song,
673
00:27:09,983 --> 00:27:12,017
which is on its way to hitting
674
00:27:12,052 --> 00:27:14,653
two million in sales right
now, as we speak...
675
00:27:15,956 --> 00:27:19,457
...only means money in
all of your pockets.
676
00:27:21,962 --> 00:27:24,095
So, ladies and gentlemen, shareholders,
677
00:27:24,131 --> 00:27:27,165
without further ado, I
would like to introduce
678
00:27:27,201 --> 00:27:29,501
my son, my baby boy,
679
00:27:29,536 --> 00:27:32,003
and your chief executive officer,
680
00:27:32,039 --> 00:27:34,005
Hakeem Lyon!
681
00:27:53,627 --> 00:27:55,193
Seeing how much you adored lions,
682
00:27:55,229 --> 00:27:57,329
I thought I'd bring you one.
683
00:27:57,364 --> 00:27:58,964
Oh, you really didn't think
684
00:27:58,999 --> 00:28:00,565
you were gonna make a surprise visit
685
00:28:00,601 --> 00:28:03,635
to my house, and me
not return the favor.
686
00:28:03,670 --> 00:28:06,071
No.
687
00:28:06,106 --> 00:28:08,873
Please, make yourself at home.
688
00:28:08,909 --> 00:28:10,275
I did.
689
00:28:10,310 --> 00:28:12,978
So what took you so long?
690
00:28:13,013 --> 00:28:15,580
Well, if I knew you felt like that,
691
00:28:15,616 --> 00:28:17,182
I'd have come sooner.
692
00:28:20,621 --> 00:28:22,354
Look...
693
00:28:22,389 --> 00:28:26,157
I want you to take your
prenatals, get good rest,
694
00:28:26,193 --> 00:28:28,093
bring the baby to term.
695
00:28:28,128 --> 00:28:31,096
When you have it, give
it to Hakeem, and...
696
00:28:31,131 --> 00:28:33,098
I'm-a give you ten million dollars.
697
00:28:33,133 --> 00:28:35,667
Do not be absurd, Lucious.
698
00:28:35,702 --> 00:28:37,168
I don't want your money.
699
00:28:37,204 --> 00:28:39,104
If I did, I would think
700
00:28:39,139 --> 00:28:40,605
that carrying the Lyon
heir would be worth
701
00:28:40,641 --> 00:28:42,841
a hell of a lot more than ten
million, don't you think?
702
00:28:42,876 --> 00:28:43,842
What do you want?
703
00:28:43,877 --> 00:28:45,243
A trust fund?
704
00:28:45,279 --> 00:28:47,779
Big old mansion like
Rhonda and Andre got?
705
00:28:47,814 --> 00:28:48,947
I told you what I want.
706
00:28:48,982 --> 00:28:50,215
A family?
707
00:28:50,250 --> 00:28:53,718
If you wanted a family,
why'd you betray me?
708
00:28:53,754 --> 00:28:54,786
I betrayed you?
709
00:28:54,821 --> 00:28:57,455
I mean, sleeping with Beretti...
710
00:28:57,491 --> 00:28:59,424
I could have gotten over that.
711
00:28:59,459 --> 00:29:01,026
But you slept with my baby boy,
712
00:29:01,061 --> 00:29:02,961
with my son.
713
00:29:02,996 --> 00:29:05,130
I never slept with Beretti.
714
00:29:05,165 --> 00:29:07,432
But it was okay to sleep with my son?
715
00:29:07,467 --> 00:29:09,367
You cheated on me first!
You slept with Cookie!
716
00:29:09,403 --> 00:29:11,303
I was never gonna leave you for Cookie.
717
00:29:11,338 --> 00:29:12,671
You broke my heart.
718
00:29:12,706 --> 00:29:15,206
You made me behave like
some kind of lunatic.
719
00:29:15,242 --> 00:29:17,108
I made you behave?
720
00:29:17,144 --> 00:29:19,110
Look, you can't blame
me for your actions.
721
00:29:19,146 --> 00:29:20,612
If you acted like a lunatic,
722
00:29:20,647 --> 00:29:22,480
it's 'cause you made those choices.
723
00:29:22,516 --> 00:29:25,050
Look...
724
00:29:25,085 --> 00:29:27,952
I done said my piece.
725
00:29:27,988 --> 00:29:29,087
Take my offer.
726
00:29:29,122 --> 00:29:31,222
It's a good one.
727
00:29:31,258 --> 00:29:34,159
Please, don't make me get ugly.
728
00:29:35,662 --> 00:29:36,995
No, no, no.
729
00:29:37,030 --> 00:29:38,730
My baby... he is making me
730
00:29:38,765 --> 00:29:40,398
believe in myself again, Lucious.
731
00:29:44,137 --> 00:29:46,104
He? He.
732
00:29:46,139 --> 00:29:47,939
And if that is something
you cannot understand,
733
00:29:47,974 --> 00:29:51,142
then I will have to do what I
need to do, too, just like you.
734
00:29:51,178 --> 00:29:53,645
What does that mean?
735
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,313
"Do what you need to do."
736
00:29:55,349 --> 00:29:58,850
When the FBI was coming for
you, I never dimed on you.
737
00:30:01,888 --> 00:30:04,923
What could you possibly know about me
738
00:30:04,958 --> 00:30:07,492
that would be of any
interest to the FBI?
739
00:30:07,527 --> 00:30:10,962
Five years...
740
00:30:10,997 --> 00:30:13,365
of being with you, Lucious.
741
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,133
Living under your roof,
742
00:30:15,168 --> 00:30:17,702
working for you.
743
00:30:17,738 --> 00:30:20,338
I know more than you think.
744
00:30:20,374 --> 00:30:21,706
If I didn't know better,
745
00:30:21,742 --> 00:30:23,708
I would say you're threatening me.
746
00:30:23,744 --> 00:30:27,011
But I do know better.
747
00:30:27,047 --> 00:30:29,180
I would be very careful.
748
00:30:29,216 --> 00:30:30,715
You know, a lot of women,
749
00:30:30,751 --> 00:30:32,817
they...
750
00:30:32,853 --> 00:30:35,220
they don't survive childbirth.
751
00:30:45,832 --> 00:30:47,999
And our recent acquisition
of Swiftstream
752
00:30:48,034 --> 00:30:50,802
has put Empire in a position
753
00:30:50,837 --> 00:30:54,739
to be the world's leader
in music streaming today.
754
00:30:56,276 --> 00:30:58,510
Yeah.
755
00:30:58,545 --> 00:31:01,045
Now I'll take questions.
I know y'all got plenty.
756
00:31:01,081 --> 00:31:03,548
Hi. Um, I'm Marti Monroe.
757
00:31:03,583 --> 00:31:05,884
I'm from Toledo. This
is my neighbor, Olive.
758
00:31:05,919 --> 00:31:07,519
We have an Empire investment group.
759
00:31:07,554 --> 00:31:09,220
Hey, Marti and Olive from Toledo.
760
00:31:09,256 --> 00:31:11,389
What's your question?
761
00:31:11,425 --> 00:31:14,025
We love, love your music,
and we just want to know,
762
00:31:14,060 --> 00:31:16,594
why haven't you released
any new stuff lately?
763
00:31:16,630 --> 00:31:18,763
Well, to be honest,
I've been a little busy
764
00:31:18,799 --> 00:31:21,900
with Empire for the past few months,
watching after y'all money,
765
00:31:21,935 --> 00:31:23,835
making sure y'all don't go broke!
766
00:31:25,872 --> 00:31:28,339
But I promise you, ladies, I
got music coming very soon.
767
00:31:28,375 --> 00:31:30,208
Very soon. Next question.
768
00:31:30,243 --> 00:31:32,777
Um, over here, Mr. CEO.
769
00:31:32,813 --> 00:31:34,846
It's a simple one.
770
00:31:35,882 --> 00:31:37,015
Y'all may know this man
771
00:31:37,050 --> 00:31:38,716
as Lucious Lyon, my father.
772
00:31:40,754 --> 00:31:42,287
Thank you.
773
00:31:42,322 --> 00:31:43,955
Thank you. It's nice to know
774
00:31:43,990 --> 00:31:45,924
there's still some love
left for the old man.
775
00:31:45,959 --> 00:31:46,958
Okay, ask your question
776
00:31:46,993 --> 00:31:48,426
so other people can have a chance.
777
00:31:48,462 --> 00:31:49,427
Okay, okay.
778
00:31:49,463 --> 00:31:51,296
What do you think
779
00:31:51,331 --> 00:31:53,164
are the five biggest challenges
780
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,034
facing the music industry
over the next, say,
781
00:31:56,069 --> 00:31:58,002
ten years?
782
00:32:06,112 --> 00:32:08,480
Monetizing new releases.
783
00:32:08,515 --> 00:32:11,649
Declining physical CD sales.
784
00:32:11,685 --> 00:32:13,151
I don't know, Lucious. What, piracy?
785
00:32:13,186 --> 00:32:16,254
Rising ticket prices for live shows.
786
00:32:16,289 --> 00:32:19,891
And an all-around lack of
innovation for the music industry.
787
00:32:19,926 --> 00:32:22,160
I don't know. I'll break it
down for you if you want.
788
00:32:25,031 --> 00:32:27,832
It's really funny you
mention live shows.
789
00:32:27,868 --> 00:32:31,102
Didn't Empire just scrap
an entire concert tour
790
00:32:31,137 --> 00:32:33,471
under your expert leadership?
791
00:32:33,507 --> 00:32:35,807
Okay, if you want to talk about
that, my father actually...
792
00:32:35,842 --> 00:32:37,275
See, that's where you're wrong.
793
00:32:37,310 --> 00:32:38,576
This isn't about me.
794
00:32:38,612 --> 00:32:41,479
I'm actually asking on
behalf of Clair here.
795
00:32:41,515 --> 00:32:43,014
Clair, baby, please stand up.
796
00:32:43,049 --> 00:32:45,083
Now, Clair Templeton,
797
00:32:45,118 --> 00:32:48,086
- she's a schoolteacher from Dallas.
- What is this?
798
00:32:48,121 --> 00:32:51,589
It turns out that money is
so scarce in her district
799
00:32:51,625 --> 00:32:54,292
that she has to pay for her
students' school supplies
800
00:32:54,327 --> 00:32:56,160
out of her own pocket.
801
00:32:56,196 --> 00:33:00,431
Which means Clair depends
on Empire dividends,
802
00:33:00,467 --> 00:33:02,500
or her students don't get an education.
803
00:33:02,536 --> 00:33:03,501
Am I right?
804
00:33:03,537 --> 00:33:05,303
You're damn right, Lucious.
805
00:33:06,339 --> 00:33:07,705
And then, uh,
806
00:33:07,741 --> 00:33:09,474
Mitch here, Mr. CEO,
807
00:33:09,509 --> 00:33:11,976
he came all the way from Albuquerque.
808
00:33:12,012 --> 00:33:14,045
Mitch was wondering what in the world
809
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,014
happened with the Antony & Cleopatra
810
00:33:16,049 --> 00:33:17,582
clothing line that you got us
811
00:33:17,617 --> 00:33:19,183
so hyped up about?
812
00:33:19,219 --> 00:33:20,852
Well, Mitch, there's
been a slight delay.
813
00:33:20,887 --> 00:33:22,720
Why is that?
814
00:33:22,756 --> 00:33:24,589
Our warehouse was broken into.
815
00:33:24,624 --> 00:33:26,658
You mean a security breach,
816
00:33:26,693 --> 00:33:28,526
under your watch.
817
00:33:28,562 --> 00:33:29,894
Now, we're talking about
818
00:33:29,930 --> 00:33:33,331
millions of dollars of
merchandise down the drain.
819
00:33:33,366 --> 00:33:35,967
I mean, why wasn't
there better security?
820
00:33:36,002 --> 00:33:37,802
Nah, man, you can't
take over this meeting.
821
00:33:37,837 --> 00:33:39,671
No, I'm-I'm not taking
over your meeting, son.
822
00:33:39,706 --> 00:33:42,540
I'm just asking the simple questions
823
00:33:42,576 --> 00:33:45,009
that any competent CEO could answer.
824
00:33:45,045 --> 00:33:47,579
But I am concerned about Swiftstream.
825
00:33:47,614 --> 00:33:49,647
I heard there's a problem with the app.
826
00:33:51,284 --> 00:33:54,485
Now, that's just a temporary delay.
827
00:33:54,521 --> 00:33:56,621
Did you do
what I think you did?
828
00:33:56,656 --> 00:33:58,856
Now we've all heard
him say how Swiftstream is...
829
00:33:58,892 --> 00:34:00,892
That's how we get back to us.
830
00:34:00,927 --> 00:34:03,094
...positioned to be the
leader in music streaming,
831
00:34:03,129 --> 00:34:05,563
but I don't know how in the
world that's ever gonna happen,
832
00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:07,999
if we can't even launch the damn app.
833
00:34:10,870 --> 00:34:12,604
It's a temporary delay.
834
00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:14,572
Oh, another delay.
835
00:34:14,608 --> 00:34:17,308
Damn, you got a room full of people here
836
00:34:17,344 --> 00:34:21,479
all waiting to hear your
vision, but instead,
837
00:34:21,514 --> 00:34:23,881
they're hearing delays, mishaps
838
00:34:23,917 --> 00:34:26,317
and mismanagement.
839
00:34:26,353 --> 00:34:27,919
Now, this is their meeting.
840
00:34:27,954 --> 00:34:29,087
Clair,
841
00:34:29,122 --> 00:34:30,488
tell him what you need.
842
00:34:30,523 --> 00:34:31,756
We need Lucious.
843
00:34:31,791 --> 00:34:33,091
- No, no, no, no.
- That's right! Lucious!
844
00:34:33,126 --> 00:34:34,926
That's not what I meant.
845
00:34:34,961 --> 00:34:36,127
That's not what I meant!
846
00:34:36,162 --> 00:34:38,963
Lucious!
Lucious! Lucious!
847
00:34:40,700 --> 00:34:42,433
Uh, okay.
848
00:34:42,469 --> 00:34:45,236
All right. Okay, okay.
849
00:34:45,271 --> 00:34:46,738
Everybody, settle down.
850
00:34:46,773 --> 00:34:48,439
Let me explain what's happening here.
851
00:34:48,475 --> 00:34:54,245
What we have is two great
men fighting over Empire.
852
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:59,684
They both love this company so
much that they would kill for it.
853
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,154
And I mean that figuratively, of course.
854
00:35:03,189 --> 00:35:06,391
But what it means is that
they will kill it for you.
855
00:35:06,426 --> 00:35:08,393
And I know that's what you want.
856
00:35:08,428 --> 00:35:09,394
Am I right?
857
00:35:11,164 --> 00:35:14,098
Okay, Lucious is a legend.
858
00:35:14,134 --> 00:35:16,000
Can't take that away from him.
859
00:35:16,036 --> 00:35:17,502
Yeah, that's right, give it up.
860
00:35:19,205 --> 00:35:24,108
But my son, Hakeem, has become
a mogul in his own right.
861
00:35:24,144 --> 00:35:28,479
He helped me build Lyon
Dynasty from nothing,
862
00:35:28,515 --> 00:35:30,314
and for that he deserves your respect.
863
00:35:31,818 --> 00:35:32,917
And yours, too.
864
00:35:34,421 --> 00:35:36,721
So why don't you come up here
and show these shareholders
865
00:35:36,756 --> 00:35:39,223
that you will not fight
with one another,
866
00:35:39,259 --> 00:35:42,060
but instead you will
fight together to make
867
00:35:42,095 --> 00:35:46,731
this company great like they...
like we all deserve, right?
868
00:35:47,934 --> 00:35:49,400
Empire was built on family!
869
00:35:53,940 --> 00:35:55,506
Son.
870
00:36:00,947 --> 00:36:03,214
What Empire needs is you, Cookie!
871
00:36:03,249 --> 00:36:05,717
- Thank you.
- To the Empire!
872
00:36:05,752 --> 00:36:06,751
The Empire!
873
00:36:23,087 --> 00:36:24,256
What did the board say?
874
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,513
They did it. They voted me out.
875
00:36:26,549 --> 00:36:27,815
They like you, Mom.
876
00:36:27,850 --> 00:36:29,817
Come here, boy.
877
00:36:29,852 --> 00:36:32,353
I'm proud of you.
878
00:36:32,388 --> 00:36:36,624
You did the best you could
steering this mess of a ship.
879
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,366
And you should be proud of yourself.
880
00:36:38,402 --> 00:36:42,704
You can tell your kids you ran
Empire for all of ten minutes.
881
00:36:42,739 --> 00:36:45,940
Really?
882
00:36:45,976 --> 00:36:48,143
You must feel good about yourself,
883
00:36:48,178 --> 00:36:50,979
humiliating him in front
of all of those people.
884
00:36:52,716 --> 00:36:54,883
You know you love me, baby.
885
00:36:54,918 --> 00:36:56,284
You said
886
00:36:56,319 --> 00:36:59,854
you wanted to bring our
family back together.
887
00:36:59,890 --> 00:37:01,890
Now, you know what happens
after this, right?
888
00:37:01,925 --> 00:37:05,059
Yeah, they come groveling back to
you like Apple did Steve Jobs.
889
00:37:05,095 --> 00:37:07,896
You... you are a piece of work.
890
00:37:07,931 --> 00:37:09,230
Congratulations.

She's in Tokyo,
896
00:37:32,456 --> 00:37:34,155
but she sent over her
pre-recorded verse,
897
00:37:34,191 --> 00:37:35,290
and, Jamal, it is hot!
898
00:37:35,325 --> 00:37:36,658

Jamal, as in Japan.

back in time for the ASAs.

Jamal, a lot of artists do this, okay?
910
00:37:57,147 --> 00:38:00,248
Lil' Wayne is forever spitting
a hot 16 on somebody's track
911
00:38:00,283 --> 00:38:02,417
from the comforts of his own tour bus.

It is so disrespectful for
her not to even show.
953
00:39:30,140 --> 00:39:34,442
You are the one who said you want to burn
down this town and leave your father
954
00:39:34,477 --> 00:39:36,044
- crawling around in your ashes.
- O-Okay.
955
00:39:36,079 --> 00:39:38,146
Then, you know what, I
don't need Stacee Run-Run.
956
00:39:38,181 --> 00:39:41,215
You know, I was burning the city
down already with Freda Gatz.
957
00:39:41,251 --> 00:39:43,351
And I don't understand why
you got such a problem
958
00:39:43,386 --> 00:39:45,186
with what we're doing.
959
00:39:45,221 --> 00:39:46,988
Like, usually, we're right
on the same creative page.
960
00:39:47,023 --> 00:39:49,557
Jamal...
961
00:39:54,164 --> 00:39:55,897
Hey, Jamal.
962
00:39:55,932 --> 00:39:57,298
What's up?
963
00:39:57,334 --> 00:39:58,433
Yo.
964
00:40:03,139 --> 00:40:05,173
Listen, I don't want somebody
giving me an ultimatum.
965
00:40:07,210 --> 00:40:09,510
I want you on the Black and White album.
966
00:40:09,546 --> 00:40:13,581
And if I got to choose between
you or someone, anyone...
967
00:40:13,617 --> 00:40:15,083
I choose you, all right?
968
00:40:15,118 --> 00:40:17,819
So, what, you wasn't
feeling Stacee Run-Run?
969
00:40:17,854 --> 00:40:19,320
Nah, man, Stacee's cool.
970
00:40:19,356 --> 00:40:21,089
Her spit game is crazy.
971
00:40:21,124 --> 00:40:22,890
She said she used to watch
me perform at this place
972
00:40:22,926 --> 00:40:24,525
on Bleeker Street called Incognito.
973
00:40:24,561 --> 00:40:26,761
Oh, yeah, I know that place.
974
00:40:26,796 --> 00:40:30,264
Couple brothers used to play
blues there on Friday night.
975
00:40:32,335 --> 00:40:34,736
Thanks, Freda.
976
00:40:34,771 --> 00:40:37,672
Look, Freda, look, the
way that we make music,
977
00:40:37,707 --> 00:40:40,341
that's how I used to feel when
I would perform at Incognito.
978
00:40:40,377 --> 00:40:44,045
I wasn't worried about
beating my dad or...
979
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:45,880
winning some ASA.
980
00:40:45,915 --> 00:40:47,582
It was creating music
981
00:40:47,617 --> 00:40:50,218
for the joy of creating music, you know?
982
00:40:50,253 --> 00:40:52,220

983
00:40:54,090 --> 00:40:55,952
