1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,057
- Previously on Empire...
- I broke the law for your ass!
2
00:00:03,058 --> 00:00:05,326
The illegal handgun!
The parole violation!
3
00:00:05,327 --> 00:00:07,795
- Angelo.
- ...that you still have feelings for that greasy...
4
00:00:07,796 --> 00:00:08,863
Hot mic, baby!
5
00:00:08,864 --> 00:00:10,164
You saved my life.
6
00:00:10,165 --> 00:00:13,434
That is why I'm fighting
so hard to get you back.
7
00:00:13,435 --> 00:00:15,336
While Lucious continues his sabbatical,
8
00:00:15,337 --> 00:00:17,271
we will produce a new
album for every year
9
00:00:17,272 --> 00:00:18,939
we have been in operation.
10
00:00:18,940 --> 00:00:22,643
Detective Pamela Rose.
I'm the NYPD liaison.
11
00:00:22,644 --> 00:00:25,246
- You trying to set me up?
- No. I didn't even know who you were.
12
00:00:25,247 --> 00:00:27,314
- So it was a coincidence.
- Mrs. Calhoun
13
00:00:27,315 --> 00:00:30,184
has been afraid to come forward
because she fears for her life.
14
00:00:30,185 --> 00:00:32,886
There's not a jury in the
world that will find her guilty.
15
00:00:40,562 --> 00:00:42,863
Well, there he is. Looking good.
16
00:00:42,864 --> 00:00:45,633
Exercising while Claudia has a day off.
17
00:00:45,634 --> 00:00:47,201
Claudia...
18
00:00:47,202 --> 00:00:50,104
prescribed that I do
this for 30 minutes a day.
19
00:00:50,105 --> 00:00:52,039
I've already knocked out 45.
20
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,974
That is excellent. Yeah, we're all here
21
00:00:53,975 --> 00:00:56,744
to support you and help you
with your rehab while she's gone.
22
00:00:56,745 --> 00:00:59,713
She left us an extensive
list. Believe that.
23
00:00:59,714 --> 00:01:01,849
Yeah, how's the, uh, leg, Pop?
24
00:01:01,850 --> 00:01:03,651
It's getting strong, son.
25
00:01:03,652 --> 00:01:04,985
Looking good, Dad.
26
00:01:04,986 --> 00:01:06,620
Thank you.
27
00:01:06,621 --> 00:01:09,156
Who's really looking good is your mother.
28
00:01:09,157 --> 00:01:11,559
You're looking especially lovely today.
29
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,127
Oh.
30
00:01:13,128 --> 00:01:14,728
Well, I have a photo shoot.
31
00:01:14,729 --> 00:01:16,297
Ma just made Forbes magazine's
32
00:01:16,298 --> 00:01:17,998
100 Most Powerful Women in Business.
33
00:01:17,999 --> 00:01:20,834
Just pictures in magazines, y'all.
34
00:01:20,835 --> 00:01:22,570
Uh-uh, don't sell yourself
short. You should own it, Ma.
35
00:01:22,571 --> 00:01:24,371
Yeah, well, while I'm
taking pretty pictures,
36
00:01:24,372 --> 00:01:27,007
I need to be getting
20 For 20 on its feet.
37
00:01:27,008 --> 00:01:29,410
Well, congratulations
38
00:01:29,411 --> 00:01:31,145
- with Forbes.
- Thank you.
39
00:01:31,146 --> 00:01:33,247
But what I think y'all need to...
40
00:01:33,248 --> 00:01:37,551
y'all see that, I did a
conjugation of "you" and "all"?
41
00:01:37,552 --> 00:01:39,753
Like Lucious.
42
00:01:39,754 --> 00:01:42,056
What I need you guys to do
43
00:01:42,057 --> 00:01:45,359
is to stop tiptoeing around me.
44
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,762
If I'm gonna get any
better, I need you guys...
45
00:01:48,763 --> 00:01:52,333
Leah said that I was a m...
46
00:01:52,334 --> 00:01:53,734
said I was a monster,
47
00:01:53,735 --> 00:01:55,669
so I need to know what I did
48
00:01:55,670 --> 00:01:58,706
to each of you individually that
made you guys call me a monster.
49
00:01:58,707 --> 00:02:00,641
No.
50
00:02:00,642 --> 00:02:02,676
No. We're not gonna do
this right now, Lucious.
51
00:02:02,677 --> 00:02:04,044
You need to finish your rehab.
52
00:02:04,045 --> 00:02:05,746
You're doing so good.
53
00:02:05,747 --> 00:02:07,214
Well, you punched me in the face.
54
00:02:07,215 --> 00:02:08,616
One shot, square.
55
00:02:08,617 --> 00:02:11,585
I'm so sorry, but I mean...
56
00:02:11,586 --> 00:02:13,954
why would I punch you in the face?
57
00:02:13,955 --> 00:02:15,889
Mm-mm.
58
00:02:15,890 --> 00:02:17,324
Jamal.
59
00:02:21,529 --> 00:02:24,398
I mean, Dad, it's not
gonna help anything.
60
00:02:24,399 --> 00:02:25,933
It's gonna help me.
61
00:02:25,934 --> 00:02:28,068
- Tell him the trash can story.
- Hakeem, shut up.
62
00:02:28,069 --> 00:02:30,671
No, boy, we are not doing that.
63
00:02:32,407 --> 00:02:36,210
Look, okay, Cookie, you keep saying, uh,
64
00:02:36,211 --> 00:02:39,079
you were gone for 17 years.
65
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,748
Why'd you leave?
66
00:02:49,891 --> 00:02:52,659
I-I got to go to work.
67
00:02:56,498 --> 00:03:02,356

68
00:03:08,184 --> 00:03:11,920
Just think of it as an
inverse Wizard of Oz,
69
00:03:11,921 --> 00:03:13,584
and the Lyon brothers
70
00:03:13,585 --> 00:03:16,871
are the Scarecrow, the Tin
Man and the Cowardly Lion.
71
00:03:17,619 --> 00:03:21,740
We will deprive each of
the thing he cherishes most.
72
00:03:21,741 --> 00:03:24,342
I'm assuming Andre is the Scarecrow.
73
00:03:24,343 --> 00:03:26,845
And his brain is his
most prized possession,
74
00:03:26,846 --> 00:03:30,515
so your charge, Lana,
is to disabuse him of it.
75
00:03:30,516 --> 00:03:31,983
Hmm.
76
00:03:31,984 --> 00:03:34,352
Well, as for the Tin Man,
77
00:03:34,353 --> 00:03:37,756
I think I finally got
him to open up his heart.
78
00:03:37,757 --> 00:03:41,526
Yes. I am going to enjoy
watching Miss Cookie
79
00:03:41,527 --> 00:03:46,097
stand helplessly by as you
snatch it from his chest.
80
00:03:46,098 --> 00:03:49,200
Good job. I'll meet
with Hakeem later today.
81
00:03:49,201 --> 00:03:53,371
Oh, he so aptly fits the
role of the Cowardly Lion.
82
00:03:53,372 --> 00:03:55,707
Now, what's left for me to do?
83
00:03:55,708 --> 00:03:57,108
Take out Toto?
84
00:03:59,345 --> 00:04:00,512
Take out...
85
00:04:02,148 --> 00:04:03,782
Angelo, you are drunk.
86
00:04:04,717 --> 00:04:08,753
Well... least I ain't no whore.
87
00:04:08,754 --> 00:04:10,188
You little slut.
88
00:04:11,390 --> 00:04:13,525
You know, Scotch and jealousy
89
00:04:13,526 --> 00:04:16,061
are making you show your ass, Angelo.
90
00:04:16,062 --> 00:04:17,596
It's pretty, ain't it?
91
00:04:17,597 --> 00:04:19,598
You know what? Maybe I need to kick yours
92
00:04:19,599 --> 00:04:21,700
- back to San Diego wh...
- That's enough.
93
00:04:21,701 --> 00:04:23,902
- Mama.
- It is time for you to put
94
00:04:23,903 --> 00:04:26,905
this floundering self-pity to rest.
95
00:04:26,906 --> 00:04:29,174
You are responsible for
this family's involvement
96
00:04:29,175 --> 00:04:30,742
with these loathsome creatures.
97
00:04:30,743 --> 00:04:32,477
So get a grip, Angelo.
98
00:04:32,478 --> 00:04:36,081
Find a place in the universe
and create a role for yourself.
99
00:04:42,922 --> 00:04:44,122
Oh.
100
00:04:44,123 --> 00:04:45,423
Good.
101
00:04:45,424 --> 00:04:47,792
Okay. Perfect.
102
00:04:47,793 --> 00:04:49,160
Now let's get you in the chair.
103
00:04:49,161 --> 00:04:50,996
Uh...
104
00:04:50,997 --> 00:04:52,797
N... That's Lucious' chair.
105
00:04:52,798 --> 00:04:55,500
Empire is the hottest company
in the entertainment space,
106
00:04:55,501 --> 00:04:57,268
and you are the shooting star.
107
00:04:57,269 --> 00:04:59,738
Revel in it, girl, you belong here.
108
00:05:12,018 --> 00:05:13,652
Ah, perfect.
109
00:05:13,653 --> 00:05:15,654
Okay. Now let's get a profile.
110
00:05:15,655 --> 00:05:16,888
Turn to your left.
111
00:05:19,859 --> 00:05:22,360
Turn to the left.
112
00:05:29,535 --> 00:05:31,836
Uh, I'm sorry, I have a meeting.
113
00:05:31,837 --> 00:05:33,705
Oh. You got an empire to run.
114
00:05:33,706 --> 00:05:36,041
- What? - We'll see you later
with the other Power Women.
115
00:05:36,042 --> 00:05:37,575
Okay.
116
00:05:38,644 --> 00:05:40,679
Ah, Cookie, these are gonna be fabulous.
117
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,848
- Great. - So, after your meeting,
you go to the bank, right?
118
00:05:43,849 --> 00:05:46,151
- Mm-hmm. - 'Cause 20 For 20
might've got you into Forbes,
119
00:05:46,152 --> 00:05:48,486
but when you sign for that
$100 million line of credit,
120
00:05:48,487 --> 00:05:49,756
we'll have the horsepower to pay for it.
121
00:05:49,757 --> 00:05:51,556
I don't understand
122
00:05:51,557 --> 00:05:53,591
why we have to take out
a loan when we're loaded.
123
00:05:53,592 --> 00:05:54,993
Yeah, loaded, not liquid.
124
00:05:54,994 --> 00:05:56,394
The board will never approve of us
125
00:05:56,395 --> 00:05:58,630
spending our own money, Ma.
126
00:05:58,631 --> 00:06:00,832
Now, don't worry, I know
my way around bankers.
127
00:06:00,833 --> 00:06:03,334
You just follow my lead.
128
00:06:03,335 --> 00:06:05,436
Yeah, yeah.
129
00:06:09,241 --> 00:06:10,508
Come here, Dad.
130
00:06:11,477 --> 00:06:13,712
Man, check this out.
131
00:06:13,713 --> 00:06:17,615
This is a song that you
and me wrote together.
132
00:06:17,616 --> 00:06:19,250
When?
133
00:06:19,251 --> 00:06:20,685
When? Well, like a year ago.
134
00:06:32,698 --> 00:06:36,034
That's really nice.
135
00:06:36,035 --> 00:06:38,203
See, I find this whole songwriting thing
136
00:06:38,204 --> 00:06:40,238
so fascinating. I mean,
how does it happen?
137
00:06:40,239 --> 00:06:42,607
Do you just, you know,
sit down at the piano,
138
00:06:42,608 --> 00:06:45,944
- and it just happen, or you...?
- I mean, sometimes.
139
00:06:45,945 --> 00:06:47,879
I mean, other times, it's...
140
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,081
comes from when you're running or walking
141
00:06:50,082 --> 00:06:52,517
or driving or sleeping.
142
00:06:52,518 --> 00:06:55,954
And I write, so it's-it's
a lyric or a melody,
143
00:06:55,955 --> 00:06:58,790
and you just stack it, and
start adding instruments and...
144
00:06:58,791 --> 00:06:59,991
What's all of this for?
145
00:06:59,992 --> 00:07:02,093
That's sheet music.
146
00:07:02,094 --> 00:07:05,296
Well, how do you get
it to be in the record?
147
00:07:05,297 --> 00:07:07,632
In order to make a, a record,
148
00:07:07,633 --> 00:07:11,102
you-you got to go into
a studio and record it.
149
00:07:11,103 --> 00:07:13,071
I want to see that.
150
00:07:13,072 --> 00:07:14,439
Take me to the studio, then.
151
00:07:16,108 --> 00:07:18,409
No, man, it... that's-that's at Empire.
152
00:07:18,410 --> 00:07:19,911
Then take me to Empire.
153
00:07:32,424 --> 00:07:33,958
Come on.
154
00:07:33,959 --> 00:07:35,660
We good, right?
155
00:07:35,661 --> 00:07:37,629
'Cause no one can see him, no
one can know that he's here.
156
00:07:37,630 --> 00:07:38,963
This is what I do, all right?
157
00:07:38,964 --> 00:07:41,266
- All right.
- Looking good, Lucious.
158
00:07:43,869 --> 00:07:46,237
Thurston. Thirsty?
159
00:07:46,238 --> 00:07:47,572
Thirsty.
160
00:07:47,573 --> 00:07:49,274
- That's a wonderful name.
- Yeah.
161
00:07:51,277 --> 00:07:53,044
Look, you really don't remember me, boss?
162
00:07:53,045 --> 00:07:54,879
Or are you just, you know,
rocking us all to sleep,
163
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,015
pulling the Lucious Lyon move?
164
00:07:57,016 --> 00:08:00,118
Well, I would think
if I remembered anyone,
165
00:08:00,119 --> 00:08:03,221
it would be someone dressed
as smooth as you dress.
166
00:08:04,156 --> 00:08:06,257
Yeah, okay.
167
00:08:07,193 --> 00:08:09,060
We good, come on.
168
00:08:09,061 --> 00:08:10,361
Does he always dress like that?
169
00:08:10,362 --> 00:08:11,963
Every damn day.
170
00:08:13,577 --> 00:08:14,907
And, so if you'll turn
171
00:08:14,908 --> 00:08:16,073
your attention to the chart,
172
00:08:16,074 --> 00:08:17,975
you'll see the way we
intend to track progress
173
00:08:17,976 --> 00:08:20,711
on every album in 20 For 20.
174
00:08:20,712 --> 00:08:23,786
We are tracking artists,
producers, budgets
175
00:08:23,787 --> 00:08:24,904
and more importantly,
176
00:08:24,905 --> 00:08:27,289
whether or not you are
hitting your milestones.
177
00:08:27,290 --> 00:08:29,158
And you better damn well hit 'em.
178
00:08:29,159 --> 00:08:30,726
Or you're gonna hit bricks.
179
00:08:30,727 --> 00:08:33,395
Look, people, we don't
have time to waste here
180
00:08:33,396 --> 00:08:35,231
or room for error.
181
00:08:35,232 --> 00:08:37,933
You got to think about this
like a, a military operation.
182
00:08:37,934 --> 00:08:41,537
- Absolutely. Continue.
- Like Operation Cookie, huh?
183
00:08:41,538 --> 00:08:44,306
Shine, you know they say you shouldn't
184
00:08:44,307 --> 00:08:46,675
show up to a meeting that
can start without you.
185
00:08:46,676 --> 00:08:49,912
But since you and your goons are here,
186
00:08:49,913 --> 00:08:53,015
there's your spot.
187
00:08:55,852 --> 00:08:58,087
One album?
188
00:08:58,088 --> 00:08:59,151
What's...? Nah.
189
00:08:59,152 --> 00:09:01,420
You may have a chart and
a schedule full of ones,
190
00:09:01,421 --> 00:09:03,622
but I ain't a one.
191
00:09:03,623 --> 00:09:04,790
Ask Lucious, he know.
192
00:09:04,791 --> 00:09:06,225
And Lucious ain't here.
193
00:09:06,226 --> 00:09:08,460
I'm running this.
194
00:09:08,461 --> 00:09:10,329
Look, I'm-a get back
to running my empire.
195
00:09:10,330 --> 00:09:11,797
That'll give you plenty of time
196
00:09:11,798 --> 00:09:14,066
to get that mangy mutt
out of my workplace.
197
00:09:14,067 --> 00:09:15,801
- Hey, he goes where I go.
- Yeah.
198
00:09:15,802 --> 00:09:17,936
I was talking to the dog, Shine.
199
00:09:17,937 --> 00:09:19,404
Hey, I own a stake in this company.
200
00:09:19,405 --> 00:09:21,073
I got a seat on the board, Cookie.
201
00:09:21,074 --> 00:09:22,641
One album is not enough!
202
00:09:22,642 --> 00:09:24,777
I give this speech to all the newbies.
203
00:09:24,778 --> 00:09:26,411
It's not complicated, but still,
204
00:09:26,412 --> 00:09:28,347
only some of you get
it, most of you don't.
205
00:09:28,348 --> 00:09:30,115
If you're in the former,
you'll do all right.
206
00:09:30,116 --> 00:09:31,450
You're in the latter, you won't.
207
00:09:31,451 --> 00:09:33,919
Trust me, you'll learn the hard way.
208
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,588
Hey, quiet down now!
209
00:09:36,589 --> 00:09:38,190
Hey!
210
00:09:39,592 --> 00:09:41,460
You're cute.
211
00:09:41,461 --> 00:09:43,762
But you're a street
chick, you know the drill.
212
00:09:43,763 --> 00:09:47,833
Keep your head down, nose
clean and your mouth shut.
213
00:09:47,834 --> 00:09:50,035
Most important:
214
00:09:50,036 --> 00:09:53,105
tiny little thing like you
wants to survive in here,
215
00:09:53,106 --> 00:09:55,974
do not ever forget that
every last one of those ladies
216
00:09:55,975 --> 00:09:57,910
will just as soon smile at you
217
00:09:57,911 --> 00:10:00,879
as slice a buck 50 across
your pretty little face.
218
00:10:02,582 --> 00:10:06,785
Oh. And if you need anything,
just dial nine for room service.
219
00:10:09,155 --> 00:10:12,624
Look, Shine, this ain't got
to be a pissing contest, okay?
220
00:10:12,625 --> 00:10:13,959
Well, you made it one.
221
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,061
Coming at me with that
one album nonsense.
222
00:10:16,062 --> 00:10:18,430
You know, Lucious wouldn't
disrespect me like that.
223
00:10:18,431 --> 00:10:20,766
Lucious ain't here right now, is he?
224
00:10:20,767 --> 00:10:22,401
Yeah, apparently not.
225
00:10:22,402 --> 00:10:25,304
How come he ain't shown
his face since that concert?
226
00:10:25,305 --> 00:10:26,939
Because nunya, that's why.
227
00:10:26,940 --> 00:10:29,608
Look, since you're acting all concerned,
228
00:10:29,609 --> 00:10:34,112
he is focusing on his
rehabilitation right now.
229
00:10:35,682 --> 00:10:37,716
What you want, Shine?
230
00:10:38,685 --> 00:10:41,053
Ten albums.
231
00:10:41,054 --> 00:10:42,554
Boy, this meeting is over.
232
00:10:42,555 --> 00:10:44,389
Ain't nobody got time for your nonsense.
233
00:10:44,390 --> 00:10:47,659
We both know 20 For 20 is
just a roll of the dice.
234
00:10:47,660 --> 00:10:49,728
I'm the only one you got left here
235
00:10:49,729 --> 00:10:51,596
that knows how to produce a banger.
236
00:10:55,001 --> 00:10:56,501
Okay, three.
237
00:10:58,438 --> 00:11:00,005
Something wrong with your calculator.
238
00:11:00,006 --> 00:11:01,173
How's that?
239
00:11:01,174 --> 00:11:03,275
That's nowhere next to
my 25% of the company.
240
00:11:04,711 --> 00:11:06,311
Seven.
241
00:11:06,312 --> 00:11:08,580
And Studio 3 on permanent
lockdown until I'm done.
242
00:11:10,516 --> 00:11:12,384
Five. And that's a quarter,
243
00:11:12,385 --> 00:11:15,053
since you want to throw
percentages around.
244
00:11:15,054 --> 00:11:17,522
First dibs on Studio 3, no lock.
245
00:11:17,523 --> 00:11:19,691
I got 15 other albums
to produce. Are we good?
246
00:11:19,692 --> 00:11:23,729
That's that biblical
wisdom I'm talking about.
247
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:26,231
I'm impressed.
248
00:11:26,232 --> 00:11:27,733
I can live with five.
249
00:11:27,734 --> 00:11:29,568
Good.
250
00:11:29,569 --> 00:11:32,271
You're gonna do fine here, Cookie.
251
00:11:32,272 --> 00:11:34,039
And tell Lucious not to hurry back.
252
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,741
- I like working with you.
- Mm-hmm.
253
00:11:35,742 --> 00:11:37,943
Yeah, I hope I like these five you got.
254
00:11:41,981 --> 00:11:44,883
You ready for the weekend update?
255
00:11:44,884 --> 00:11:47,753
My-my people had the
incorrect Intel on Giuliana.
256
00:11:47,754 --> 00:11:51,356
I mean... we-we looked under
every rock, nook and cranny.
257
00:11:51,357 --> 00:11:53,025
Even went through a
couple of crack houses.
258
00:11:53,026 --> 00:11:55,594
Now... I don't know, it's like
somebody beat us to the punch.
259
00:11:55,595 --> 00:11:56,762
I mean, this chick is ghost.
260
00:11:56,763 --> 00:11:58,864
Maybe you need new people.
261
00:12:01,301 --> 00:12:04,102
Yeah, you ain't lying on that. Maybe.
262
00:12:04,103 --> 00:12:06,305
Drinking in the afternoon, huh?
263
00:12:06,306 --> 00:12:08,206
You all right? You're good?
264
00:12:08,207 --> 00:12:09,942
What else, Thirsty?
265
00:12:09,943 --> 00:12:13,745
Well, I mean, you know, Vegas
Metro can't find her, either.
266
00:12:13,746 --> 00:12:16,648
So the investigation
continues, which is good.
267
00:12:16,649 --> 00:12:19,384
But they-they want someone
to corroborate your statement.
268
00:12:19,385 --> 00:12:21,787
There is nobody else.
269
00:12:21,788 --> 00:12:23,822
Just me and Giuliana.
270
00:12:23,823 --> 00:12:25,857
And the guy she was
popping off to, right?
271
00:12:27,694 --> 00:12:30,362
Yeah, man, I copy. I get it.
272
00:12:30,363 --> 00:12:33,242
I mean, you know, but this is,
this is a high-profile case.
273
00:12:33,243 --> 00:12:34,984
All right? The police are
under a lot of pressure.
274
00:12:34,985 --> 00:12:36,530
They're not saying you're lying,
275
00:12:36,531 --> 00:12:37,979
but they just want some confirmation
276
00:12:37,980 --> 00:12:39,321
that they're on the right track.
277
00:12:39,322 --> 00:12:44,060
How about the fact that
Giuliana is missing?
278
00:12:44,061 --> 00:12:45,494
How about that?
279
00:12:45,495 --> 00:12:48,964
How about that? All right.
280
00:12:48,965 --> 00:12:53,369
I mean, you... you're preaching
to the converted, boss man.
281
00:12:53,370 --> 00:12:55,871
I will relay the message to 'em,
282
00:12:55,872 --> 00:12:58,374
without the attitude, of course.
283
00:12:58,375 --> 00:13:00,242
But we're on the same page, right?
284
00:13:00,243 --> 00:13:01,877
Absolutely.
285
00:13:01,878 --> 00:13:04,647
Yeah. All right. I'm on it.
286
00:13:20,197 --> 00:13:22,665
May I talk to you, Detective?
287
00:13:26,403 --> 00:13:29,004
Right outside the station.
288
00:13:29,005 --> 00:13:31,240
My, aren't we bold?
289
00:13:31,241 --> 00:13:34,510
So, you don't like it when I
show up at your office, huh?
290
00:13:34,511 --> 00:13:36,312
I wonder what would happen
if one of your colleagues
291
00:13:36,313 --> 00:13:37,680
saw you talking to a suspect.
292
00:13:37,681 --> 00:13:40,583
Who says you're a suspect?
293
00:13:45,188 --> 00:13:47,623
Fine.
294
00:13:47,624 --> 00:13:49,808
You want to know why
Giuliana Green is missing,
295
00:13:49,809 --> 00:13:50,939
I'll tell you why.
296
00:13:50,940 --> 00:13:53,429
Because anyone who is stupid enough
297
00:13:53,430 --> 00:13:54,964
to try and kill my father
298
00:13:54,965 --> 00:13:57,700
is safer in hiding than
facing his kind of justice.
299
00:13:57,701 --> 00:14:01,170
Now, I told the Vegas
Police everything I know.
300
00:14:01,171 --> 00:14:03,539
You're the one pushing
them to keep questioning me
301
00:14:03,540 --> 00:14:05,008
when they should be trying
302
00:14:05,009 --> 00:14:06,776
to find my father's would-be killer.
303
00:14:09,413 --> 00:14:11,514
You're perspiring.
304
00:14:11,515 --> 00:14:12,715
Out of breath.
305
00:14:12,716 --> 00:14:15,318
Deflecting.
306
00:14:15,319 --> 00:14:19,188
All behaviors associated
with someone telling a lie.
307
00:14:19,189 --> 00:14:20,823
Care to explain?
308
00:14:49,914 --> 00:14:53,250
Yo, where you from?
309
00:14:58,589 --> 00:15:00,791
Philly.
310
00:15:00,792 --> 00:15:04,628
Yo. We got a Philly girl down here.
311
00:15:04,629 --> 00:15:06,730
Chyna.
312
00:15:06,731 --> 00:15:08,365
You got new peoples.
313
00:15:10,268 --> 00:15:11,701
Hold up.
314
00:15:20,611 --> 00:15:22,445
You from Philly?
315
00:15:22,446 --> 00:15:24,915
What part?
316
00:15:27,618 --> 00:15:29,119
What's your name?
317
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,555
Why you asking so many questions?
318
00:15:33,791 --> 00:15:34,925
Uh-uh.
319
00:15:34,926 --> 00:15:36,893
Bitch.
320
00:15:36,894 --> 00:15:39,362
Break it up!
321
00:15:40,798 --> 00:15:42,032
Come on.
322
00:15:43,301 --> 00:15:46,002
Crazy bitch!
323
00:15:46,003 --> 00:15:49,239
I was trying to give
you some shower shoes!
324
00:15:59,951 --> 00:16:01,751
I was expecting Whit Houseworth.
325
00:16:01,752 --> 00:16:03,820
Whit's been called away last minute.
326
00:16:03,821 --> 00:16:05,355
I'm Morris Loach,
327
00:16:05,356 --> 00:16:09,159
executive vice president
of corporate lending.
328
00:16:10,261 --> 00:16:11,561
This way.
329
00:16:24,508 --> 00:16:26,376
I have examined your request
330
00:16:26,377 --> 00:16:28,378
in conjunction with the Empire portfolio
331
00:16:28,379 --> 00:16:30,981
and, while impressive,
332
00:16:30,982 --> 00:16:34,217
I'm afraid...
333
00:16:34,218 --> 00:16:37,053
we cannot extend you a line of credit.
334
00:16:37,054 --> 00:16:40,690
Pardon? Empire has had our
best quarter in the last ten...
335
00:16:40,691 --> 00:16:42,926
We're exercising a position of caution
336
00:16:42,927 --> 00:16:45,395
in the entertainment sector right now.
337
00:16:45,396 --> 00:16:47,731
- I'm sorry.
- No, you're not sorry.
338
00:16:47,732 --> 00:16:51,134
In fact, you're over there
enjoying yourself, aren't you?
339
00:16:51,135 --> 00:16:53,136
Because you can't wait to
tell your little friends
340
00:16:53,137 --> 00:16:54,671
how you declined Empire
341
00:16:54,672 --> 00:16:57,540
and reminded us of
where we belong, right?
342
00:16:57,541 --> 00:16:59,075
Ms. Lyon, I assure you,
343
00:16:59,076 --> 00:17:02,545
our bank takes pride in
servicing every client.
344
00:17:02,546 --> 00:17:06,249
Empire has had steady growth
for damn near 20 years.
345
00:17:06,250 --> 00:17:08,652
And since going public,
we've increased market share
346
00:17:08,653 --> 00:17:09,853
and doubled revenue.
347
00:17:09,854 --> 00:17:11,521
You saw that in the file.
348
00:17:11,522 --> 00:17:13,523
But you made up your mind
349
00:17:13,524 --> 00:17:16,593
before it hit your desk, didn't you?
350
00:17:16,594 --> 00:17:18,461
I would call you a bougie coward,
351
00:17:18,462 --> 00:17:23,433
but I am the chief executive
officer of Empire Enterprises,
352
00:17:23,434 --> 00:17:25,301
so I'll leave you with good day.
353
00:17:28,172 --> 00:17:29,839
Bitch.
354
00:17:40,384 --> 00:17:42,798
So, here's your plaques and your awards.
355
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:45,701
It's not all of 'em,
not even near, but...
356
00:17:45,702 --> 00:17:47,053
it's some of 'em.
357
00:17:47,054 --> 00:17:50,265
This is the green room.
358
00:17:50,266 --> 00:17:53,125
It's basically where the artists come
359
00:17:53,126 --> 00:17:56,322
and chill or write or drink or eat
360
00:17:56,323 --> 00:17:59,490
in between or before
they go into the studio.
361
00:17:59,491 --> 00:18:01,225
I built all of this?
362
00:18:01,226 --> 00:18:04,195
Dad, literally every single
thing in here, this is all you.
363
00:18:04,196 --> 00:18:06,631
- All this is mine?
- Yes, everything.
364
00:18:06,632 --> 00:18:10,334
Even these?
365
00:18:11,670 --> 00:18:13,538
Everything.
366
00:18:16,775 --> 00:18:19,010
- It's mine.
- It's all you, man.
367
00:18:19,011 --> 00:18:21,012
It's all you.
368
00:18:22,948 --> 00:18:25,383
And this...
369
00:18:25,384 --> 00:18:28,152
...is one of your studios.
370
00:18:30,088 --> 00:18:33,458
Hmm. How many of these do I have?
371
00:18:33,459 --> 00:18:35,793
A lot, Dad.
372
00:18:35,794 --> 00:18:37,154
Not just here... L.A., everywhere.
373
00:18:38,397 --> 00:18:39,564
Jamal, Warren Hall
374
00:18:39,565 --> 00:18:41,599
is on his way up to see you.
375
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,069
Why would you let...? Never mind.
376
00:18:45,070 --> 00:18:46,471
Uh, Dad, chill, all right?
377
00:18:46,472 --> 00:18:48,773
Webb, watch, watch my
dad. Chill, Dad, all right?
378
00:18:48,774 --> 00:18:51,409
- Hey.
- Hey, baby.
379
00:18:51,410 --> 00:18:53,911
My meeting ended early, so
I came to take you to lunch.
380
00:18:53,912 --> 00:18:58,182
Oh, that's, um, that's
so nice. I, I got, um,
381
00:18:58,183 --> 00:19:00,818
I got to record and I'm trying
to lay down these, these vocals,
382
00:19:00,819 --> 00:19:02,907
so I just... I only got
like an hour and a half.
383
00:19:02,908 --> 00:19:03,855
It's cool. I can wait with you.
384
00:19:03,856 --> 00:19:05,623
No, no, why don't we, why
don't we catch dinner tonight?
385
00:19:05,624 --> 00:19:07,058
'Cause then that way we can
just really chill, you know?
386
00:19:07,059 --> 00:19:09,460
Wait, is that your father right there?
387
00:19:09,461 --> 00:19:12,541
No, man, that's-that's the engineer.
388
00:19:12,542 --> 00:19:14,265
He's a legend. Are you crazy?
389
00:19:14,266 --> 00:19:16,334
I, um...
390
00:19:16,335 --> 00:19:19,504
I think it's so sweet that
you-you came to surprise me,
391
00:19:19,505 --> 00:19:20,938
- but I really need to...
- You know what, don't worry.
392
00:19:20,939 --> 00:19:22,773
Nah, I just need to
lay down these lyrics.
393
00:19:22,774 --> 00:19:23,808
- So it's a... I'm having...
- Okay.
394
00:19:23,809 --> 00:19:25,247
I should have called.
395
00:19:25,248 --> 00:19:26,680
- Nah, it's-it's all good, though.
- That's okay.
396
00:19:26,681 --> 00:19:27,678
I'm happy to see you, you know?
397
00:19:27,679 --> 00:19:28,994
All right, I'll surprise
you another time.
398
00:19:28,995 --> 00:19:30,881
All right.
399
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,721
So this right here,
400
00:19:36,722 --> 00:19:38,856
this is it.
401
00:19:38,857 --> 00:19:40,658
This is Studio 3,
402
00:19:40,659 --> 00:19:43,027
nicknamed The Hitmaker.
403
00:19:43,028 --> 00:19:44,662
I record here.
404
00:19:44,663 --> 00:19:45,830
Yeah.
405
00:19:45,831 --> 00:19:49,200
You recorded your
best-selling album here.
406
00:19:49,201 --> 00:19:51,202
It took three days.
407
00:19:51,203 --> 00:19:54,972
Nobody slept for 72 hours, not
even my ass, and I was a kid.
408
00:19:54,973 --> 00:19:56,307
But...
409
00:19:56,308 --> 00:19:58,776
but it went on to sell
over eight million copies,
410
00:19:58,777 --> 00:19:59,977
and now everybody wants to record here
411
00:19:59,978 --> 00:20:01,612
'cause they feel like
the Lucious Lyon magic
412
00:20:01,613 --> 00:20:04,649
will, like, sprinkle
on them or something.
413
00:20:04,650 --> 00:20:08,853
You know, I'm the one with
the Lucious Lyon magic, so...
414
00:20:08,854 --> 00:20:12,056
Listen to this.
415
00:20:14,059 --> 00:20:17,228
This is the song that I
said that we wrote together.
416
00:20:17,229 --> 00:20:18,729
Look.
417
00:20:18,730 --> 00:20:19,830
These the keys.
418
00:20:26,371 --> 00:20:28,039
And the strings.
419
00:20:29,241 --> 00:20:31,175
Come here.
420
00:20:31,176 --> 00:20:34,011
- Wow.
- Look.
421
00:20:34,012 --> 00:20:35,713
Then the bass drops.
422
00:20:42,387 --> 00:20:43,554
It's dope, right?
423
00:20:43,555 --> 00:20:45,356
What is this?
424
00:20:45,357 --> 00:20:46,991
"Chasing the Sky."
425
00:20:46,992 --> 00:20:49,560
No, I mean this. What is this?
426
00:20:49,561 --> 00:20:51,762
Oh, this is the, um, the mixing board.
427
00:20:51,763 --> 00:20:56,233
It's basically how the engineer
takes the song to completion.
428
00:20:56,234 --> 00:20:59,470
And I worked on this?
429
00:20:59,471 --> 00:21:01,568
Man, you used to work on all of this.
430
00:21:01,569 --> 00:21:03,066
You didn't even need an engineer.
431
00:21:03,067 --> 00:21:06,703
You just rolled up in the studio
and was like, "I'm the king."
432
00:21:08,273 --> 00:21:10,340
Go ahead.
433
00:21:16,147 --> 00:21:18,382
Ha, that's a little too...
that's a little too loud.
434
00:21:18,383 --> 00:21:19,923
It's all right. It's all right, Dad.
435
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:25,822
I don't feel connected
to none of this stuff.
436
00:21:28,860 --> 00:21:31,561
Can we, um, maybe just talk for a minute?
437
00:21:31,562 --> 00:21:33,630
Of course.
438
00:21:37,235 --> 00:21:40,504
Hakeem said something
earlier about a trash can...
439
00:21:40,505 --> 00:21:42,372
Come on, man.
440
00:21:42,373 --> 00:21:44,308
- Relax, man, relax, I'm good.
- Sir.
441
00:21:44,309 --> 00:21:45,475
Yo, what's up, Webb?
442
00:21:45,476 --> 00:21:46,476
I tried to explain to him
443
00:21:46,477 --> 00:21:47,945
this area's off-limits right now.
444
00:21:47,946 --> 00:21:50,514
Lucious.
445
00:21:52,116 --> 00:21:54,084
Moonshine.
446
00:21:54,085 --> 00:21:56,286
Moonshine? We on it like that now?
447
00:21:56,287 --> 00:21:57,754
He's a friend of mine, right?
448
00:21:57,755 --> 00:21:59,656
Moonshine.
449
00:21:59,657 --> 00:22:02,259
Yeah, but you know what, we
better get up out of here.
450
00:22:02,260 --> 00:22:04,127
So, Dad, let's... Come on, let's hit it.
451
00:22:04,128 --> 00:22:07,664
But Moonshine and I have
been friends a long time.
452
00:22:08,666 --> 00:22:10,834
Yeah. Day ones.
453
00:22:10,835 --> 00:22:12,703
Yeah, we made rap music together.
454
00:22:12,704 --> 00:22:16,239
Okay, so you're gonna
throw that in my face now.
455
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,643
Nah, Lucious, we didn't
make rap music together.
456
00:22:19,644 --> 00:22:21,511
Well, we'd do a few jams,
457
00:22:21,512 --> 00:22:23,146
made a lot of money in the street.
458
00:22:23,147 --> 00:22:25,148
Meaning, like, uh, street parties.
459
00:22:25,149 --> 00:22:27,584
'Cause before there
was Empire or anything,
460
00:22:27,585 --> 00:22:30,120
y'all used to throw... it's just, uh...
461
00:22:30,121 --> 00:22:32,322
these... these dope block parties.
462
00:22:32,323 --> 00:22:34,891
Mm. Yeah.
463
00:22:34,892 --> 00:22:37,327
Everybody who was anybody
from Philly was there.
464
00:22:37,328 --> 00:22:39,930
Will Smith. The Roots.
465
00:22:39,931 --> 00:22:43,667
Rocky Balboa. Remember that?
466
00:22:47,605 --> 00:22:51,942
To be perfectly honest with
you, Moonshine, I don't.
467
00:22:51,943 --> 00:22:55,645
But I'm curious, um...
468
00:22:55,646 --> 00:22:59,916
w-we were friends since we were kids,
469
00:22:59,917 --> 00:23:04,354
and you make music and I make music.
470
00:23:04,355 --> 00:23:08,592
Why didn't he and I ever
make a song together?
471
00:23:12,096 --> 00:23:13,463
I don't know, brother.
472
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,701
But like I said, it's all good.
473
00:23:17,702 --> 00:23:21,671
We're here now, right?
Empire's 20 years strong...
474
00:23:21,672 --> 00:23:24,274
and we've been friends longer than that.
475
00:23:24,275 --> 00:23:27,377
So that's why you're here. To make music.
476
00:23:27,378 --> 00:23:29,880
Yeah. But nothing like the soft-ass R&B
477
00:23:29,881 --> 00:23:31,882
your boy here's making.
478
00:23:31,883 --> 00:23:33,650
Man, get your ass up
out of here with that.
479
00:23:33,651 --> 00:23:35,385
Listen, in honor of your 20th,
480
00:23:35,386 --> 00:23:37,621
we got something for you.
481
00:23:37,622 --> 00:23:39,923
It's something we worked on together.
482
00:23:39,924 --> 00:23:42,526
Before you took it for
one of your B-sides.
483
00:23:42,527 --> 00:23:45,896
But I remixed it. Check this out.
484
00:23:52,170 --> 00:23:53,470
It's bangin', right?
485
00:23:57,708 --> 00:23:59,543
No.
486
00:23:59,544 --> 00:24:00,577
No.
487
00:24:00,578 --> 00:24:01,845
No! No!
488
00:24:03,181 --> 00:24:04,414
- No!
- Dad.
489
00:24:04,415 --> 00:24:06,716
- No.
- Wait, Dad. No, Webb, grab him, man.
490
00:24:06,717 --> 00:24:07,818
What's wrong with him?
491
00:24:07,819 --> 00:24:09,519
Man, get your damn hands off me.
492
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,154
He slow now, huh?
493
00:24:12,809 --> 00:24:14,977
A few things. I need you
to get my mom's signature
494
00:24:14,978 --> 00:24:17,413
and, uh, make sure Morales
in Accounts Payable gets cc'd.
495
00:24:17,414 --> 00:24:19,515
Okay? Thank you.
496
00:24:33,730 --> 00:24:35,731
Who let you in here?
497
00:24:35,732 --> 00:24:38,934
Get it right, Mr. Lyon, I'm NYPD,
498
00:24:38,935 --> 00:24:41,904
not Vegas Po-Po you
can keep off your ass
499
00:24:41,905 --> 00:24:43,906
with a couple of
tickets to The Lion King.
500
00:24:49,413 --> 00:24:52,081
You said Giuliana Green
is in hiding because
501
00:24:52,082 --> 00:24:53,716
she's afraid of your father.
502
00:24:53,717 --> 00:24:57,086
Now, I take it your father
is a pretty scary guy.
503
00:24:57,087 --> 00:25:00,890
But how about you?
504
00:25:00,891 --> 00:25:03,492
Are you scary... Andre?
505
00:25:08,732 --> 00:25:11,801
Next time we speak,
506
00:25:11,802 --> 00:25:13,903
I think it's best my attorney be present.
507
00:25:20,210 --> 00:25:22,411
Know the difference
between fear and excitement?
508
00:25:24,181 --> 00:25:27,416
It's all in how your brain interprets it.
509
00:25:27,417 --> 00:25:29,819
Earlier today, when
you heard the uniforms
510
00:25:29,820 --> 00:25:31,220
coming around the corner,
511
00:25:31,221 --> 00:25:32,788
were you afraid we were
going to get caught?
512
00:25:32,789 --> 00:25:34,323
Caught?
513
00:25:34,324 --> 00:25:37,226
Well, see, I wasn't.
514
00:25:37,227 --> 00:25:38,861
It made me hot.
515
00:25:53,176 --> 00:25:55,778
Just the way you like it.
516
00:25:55,779 --> 00:25:59,281
You promise?
517
00:25:59,282 --> 00:26:01,917
Thanks, Juanita.
518
00:26:04,254 --> 00:26:07,623
It's like that fellow, Moonshine...
519
00:26:07,624 --> 00:26:11,594
I looked in his eye and
I could see that he was
520
00:26:11,595 --> 00:26:13,896
a violent, violent man.
521
00:26:13,897 --> 00:26:18,200
And I knew that him and I
had some kind of history.
522
00:26:18,201 --> 00:26:20,402
He was looking for it in my eyes.
523
00:26:20,403 --> 00:26:23,038
Is that what drove my music?
524
00:26:23,039 --> 00:26:25,307
Was it dark?
525
00:26:25,308 --> 00:26:29,645
Was I a violent man like him?
526
00:26:31,381 --> 00:26:35,251
I mean, I know you guys are
trying to protect me, but...
527
00:26:35,252 --> 00:26:38,120
it seems like y'all are
trying to protect me from me.
528
00:26:44,861 --> 00:26:48,364
When I was six years old,
you threw me in a trash can.
529
00:26:48,365 --> 00:26:50,566
I what?
530
00:26:51,902 --> 00:26:53,969
It was a party,
531
00:26:53,970 --> 00:26:57,072
and I came downstairs in Mom's heels
532
00:26:57,073 --> 00:26:58,874
and scarf or whatever.
533
00:26:58,875 --> 00:27:02,211
And a lot of the, you know, like
friends and family were over,
534
00:27:02,212 --> 00:27:03,345
so it freaked you out.
535
00:27:03,346 --> 00:27:04,914
I was intolerant?
536
00:27:04,915 --> 00:27:08,817
Yeah, that's a nice
way of saying it, yeah.
537
00:27:08,818 --> 00:27:13,455
That's...
538
00:27:13,456 --> 00:27:16,825
a hateful, ugly thing to do to somebody.
539
00:27:16,826 --> 00:27:19,628
I rejected you for who you are.
540
00:27:19,629 --> 00:27:22,698
That's wrong. It's...
541
00:27:22,699 --> 00:27:25,534
it's hateful.
542
00:27:25,535 --> 00:27:27,403
I mean, it wasn't easy,
543
00:27:27,404 --> 00:27:31,674
and, you know, I spent
some time hating you, but...
544
00:27:32,742 --> 00:27:34,109
Dad, you were a product...
545
00:27:34,110 --> 00:27:36,412
a product of, you
know, where you grew up.
546
00:27:36,413 --> 00:27:38,314
No, no, no, there's no excuse for that.
547
00:27:38,315 --> 00:27:39,748
I mean, here I was,
548
00:27:39,749 --> 00:27:43,652
unable to see my own son because...
549
00:27:43,653 --> 00:27:46,422
of some prejudice I had.
550
00:27:48,592 --> 00:27:50,192
I'm so sorry.
551
00:27:53,663 --> 00:27:57,600
Dad, it's okay, as
long as you see me now.
552
00:27:57,601 --> 00:27:58,834
And you do.
553
00:28:01,538 --> 00:28:03,539
Thank you for trusting me with the truth.
554
00:28:03,540 --> 00:28:06,075
Yeah.
555
00:28:18,712 --> 00:28:21,213
Nice of you to have it all ready.
556
00:28:21,214 --> 00:28:22,214
That kind of day, huh?
557
00:28:22,215 --> 00:28:23,882
You have no idea.
558
00:28:23,883 --> 00:28:25,684
Don't worry, we'll get you glammed up.
559
00:28:25,685 --> 00:28:27,720
Annie is just getting some
compositions up with the others.
560
00:28:27,721 --> 00:28:29,688
- Okay.
- Yeah.
561
00:28:31,992 --> 00:28:34,526
Cookie, darling.
562
00:28:34,527 --> 00:28:36,328

Be careful, Keem.

578
00:29:06,703 --> 00:29:08,163
Zoe, you mind getting that for me?
579
00:29:10,506 --> 00:29:12,674
Hello.
580
00:29:12,675 --> 00:29:14,676
Mama's here.
581
00:29:14,677 --> 00:29:18,380
Look at my pretty, little princess.
582
00:29:18,381 --> 00:29:20,382
Hi.
583
00:29:20,383 --> 00:29:22,751
Hey, Anika.
584
00:29:22,752 --> 00:29:25,354
Hey. You coming home
with Mama tonight, right?
585
00:29:25,355 --> 00:29:26,555
Yes.
586
00:29:26,556 --> 00:29:28,557
Going where?
587
00:29:28,558 --> 00:29:31,126
She's coming home with me tonight.
588
00:29:31,127 --> 00:29:32,794
Right?
589
00:29:32,795 --> 00:29:33,862
She's not going with you anywhere, Anika.
590
00:29:33,863 --> 00:29:34,863
Excuse me?
591
00:29:34,864 --> 00:29:36,031
She has a play date tomorrow
592
00:29:36,032 --> 00:29:37,899
and I have to take her
shopping for her birthday.
593
00:29:37,900 --> 00:29:40,168
That's okay, I will take her.
594
00:29:40,169 --> 00:29:41,403
I mean, Lucious want me
to bring her over there.
595
00:29:41,404 --> 00:29:43,138
You were just over there today, right?
596
00:29:43,139 --> 00:29:46,408
Ah, you are a terrible liar, Hakeem.
597
00:29:46,409 --> 00:29:48,343
Oh, come to Mama. Come.
598
00:29:48,344 --> 00:29:49,778
She's on a routine now.
599
00:29:49,779 --> 00:29:51,546
Babies is supposed to
be on that. Right, T?
600
00:29:58,721 --> 00:29:59,855
Come, come...
601
00:29:59,856 --> 00:30:01,456
Oh, oh, come here.
602
00:30:01,457 --> 00:30:03,392
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
603
00:30:03,393 --> 00:30:05,260
See? She's not used to you yet.
604
00:30:05,261 --> 00:30:08,096
Got to give her some time.
605
00:30:08,097 --> 00:30:10,832
You were gone five months.
606
00:30:10,833 --> 00:30:13,702
And your mother was gone
for 17 years, Hakeem,
607
00:30:13,703 --> 00:30:14,903
but she is still your mother.
608
00:30:14,904 --> 00:30:17,372
And I am still Bella's.
609
00:30:17,373 --> 00:30:20,509
Now, she might not remember...
610
00:30:20,510 --> 00:30:22,544
but you better not forget.
611
00:30:24,380 --> 00:30:25,881
Didn't her stylist get the memo?
612
00:30:25,882 --> 00:30:27,616
Turned down for a line of credit.
613
00:30:27,617 --> 00:30:28,917
Poor thing.
614
00:30:28,918 --> 00:30:30,752
But the company is solid.
615
00:30:30,753 --> 00:30:33,789
That's rap. Black pathology always sells.
616
00:30:33,790 --> 00:30:35,357
Wasn't she with your son?
617
00:30:35,358 --> 00:30:37,225
Doesn't have a degree, does she?
618
00:30:37,226 --> 00:30:39,127
Oh, not even an education,
except for federal prison.
619
00:30:39,128 --> 00:30:40,896
Diana.
620
00:30:40,897 --> 00:30:44,199
You have something you need to say to me?
621
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:48,103
Right here. You can say it to my face.
622
00:30:48,104 --> 00:30:51,073
I was just talking to my friends
about the recidivism rates.
623
00:30:51,074 --> 00:30:54,643
I'm a firm believer that as
long as people resort to crime
624
00:30:54,644 --> 00:30:59,214
and violence to solve
problems, that, well,
625
00:30:59,215 --> 00:31:01,149
I'm sure I don't have to tell you
626
00:31:01,150 --> 00:31:03,652
about the vicious cycle thing.
627
00:31:03,653 --> 00:31:05,687
Yo, Cookie.
628
00:31:05,688 --> 00:31:07,889
Cookie, right?
629
00:31:12,328 --> 00:31:13,495
What do you want?
630
00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:17,966
Uh, ladies, you about ready?
631
00:31:21,404 --> 00:31:23,638
I should've known how a new
jack would respond to a gift
632
00:31:23,639 --> 00:31:25,340
just out the blue like that,
633
00:31:25,341 --> 00:31:27,161
especially one of y'all
north Philly chicks.
634
00:31:28,111 --> 00:31:30,912
Look, I'm from Southwest.
635
00:31:30,913 --> 00:31:32,948
See that?
636
00:31:32,949 --> 00:31:35,016
That's Philly every day, all day.
637
00:31:35,017 --> 00:31:36,752
Well, except for Ilene.
638
00:31:36,753 --> 00:31:40,322
She's from Camden, but she reps hard.
639
00:31:40,323 --> 00:31:43,759
Anyway, look, you don't
want to be stepping barefoot
640
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,393
in them shower stalls
with the nasty asses
641
00:31:45,394 --> 00:31:46,762
we got up in here, okay?
642
00:31:46,763 --> 00:31:49,965
I'm supposed to believe that's it, huh?
643
00:31:49,966 --> 00:31:53,969
Oh, we got lotion. Baby powder. Stamps.
644
00:31:53,970 --> 00:31:56,271
Write your peeps, let
'em know you're good.
645
00:31:56,272 --> 00:31:58,774
Just until you get money on
your books and can get your own.
646
00:31:58,775 --> 00:32:00,842
Just put a little bit back in
the stash for the next chick.
647
00:32:00,843 --> 00:32:01,943
Know what I mean?
648
00:32:03,980 --> 00:32:06,148
So, how many years you
get? Oh, no, don't tell me.
649
00:32:06,149 --> 00:32:07,349
Conspiracy,
650
00:32:07,350 --> 00:32:10,986
new law, you got more
than ten, that's for sure.
651
00:32:12,488 --> 00:32:14,956
- Thirty.
- Hmm.
652
00:32:14,957 --> 00:32:16,458
Thirty.
653
00:32:16,459 --> 00:32:18,960
So you'll be doing, what?
654
00:32:18,961 --> 00:32:21,696
25 and a half?
655
00:32:21,697 --> 00:32:23,832
You see Ashanti over
there, that skinny one?
656
00:32:23,833 --> 00:32:25,100
She got 30.
657
00:32:25,101 --> 00:32:28,804
LaDonna, she got life.
658
00:32:28,805 --> 00:32:31,506
Not one of 'em got less than ten.
659
00:32:31,507 --> 00:32:34,309
I'm-a let you guess how
many of them are not in here
660
00:32:34,310 --> 00:32:37,112
because of their man.
661
00:32:38,214 --> 00:32:40,482
What about you? Where your man at?
662
00:32:40,483 --> 00:32:43,752
Out there on the streets.
663
00:32:43,753 --> 00:32:45,987
My man was a don.
664
00:32:45,988 --> 00:32:47,789
You heard of him, trust me.
665
00:32:47,790 --> 00:32:50,458
Talking that "get down or lay down."
666
00:32:50,459 --> 00:32:54,362
Feds ran up on him, he laid his ass down.
667
00:32:54,363 --> 00:32:56,932
What man?
668
00:32:56,933 --> 00:32:59,568
I'm in here with you and them.
669
00:32:59,569 --> 00:33:03,004
We live together or we die alone.
670
00:33:03,906 --> 00:33:07,042
- And right here.
- I'm sorry.
671
00:33:07,043 --> 00:33:08,576
I-I got to say something.
672
00:33:09,412 --> 00:33:10,545
I'm sorry.
673
00:33:10,546 --> 00:33:12,347
Um, look, it's no secret
674
00:33:12,348 --> 00:33:14,950
that there's bad blood between us.
675
00:33:14,951 --> 00:33:17,519
But I'd like to put that behind us,
676
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,344
because I have so many other things
677
00:33:19,345 --> 00:33:20,605
I need to be concerned with.
678
00:33:23,259 --> 00:33:25,727
I got turned down for
a line of credit today.
679
00:33:25,728 --> 00:33:28,530
Every "T" was crossed,
every "I" was dotted.
680
00:33:28,531 --> 00:33:30,298
Should've been a shoo-in, but...
681
00:33:30,299 --> 00:33:32,934
before I could get a
"how do you do, ma'am?"
682
00:33:32,935 --> 00:33:35,770
that bougie-ass banker
told me to kick rocks.
683
00:33:35,771 --> 00:33:39,274
Look, I may not know
business like all of you do,
684
00:33:39,275 --> 00:33:43,245
but I know music, and it's priceless.
685
00:33:43,246 --> 00:33:45,614
And I need to go find a
bank that understands that,
686
00:33:45,615 --> 00:33:48,183
- so I'm sorry. I'm so...
- The same thing happened to me.
687
00:33:49,452 --> 00:33:51,553
My husband had a heart attack.
688
00:33:51,554 --> 00:33:53,154
Left me to care for two teenagers.
689
00:33:53,155 --> 00:33:55,390
My company was teetering,
690
00:33:55,391 --> 00:33:57,926
my job was on the line.
691
00:33:57,927 --> 00:33:59,861
I mean, all I needed was a, a bridge loan
692
00:33:59,862 --> 00:34:01,463
to take me through the quarter.
693
00:34:01,464 --> 00:34:03,265
I got turned down,
694
00:34:03,266 --> 00:34:05,800
'cause I don't have an
appendage between my legs.
695
00:34:05,801 --> 00:34:07,902
Cookie.
696
00:34:09,872 --> 00:34:12,641
I'm gonna spot you $10
mil for your 20 For 20.
697
00:34:12,642 --> 00:34:15,777
And not just because
my kids love your music.
698
00:34:15,778 --> 00:34:17,946
- $10 million?
- Mm-hmm.
699
00:34:17,947 --> 00:34:19,981
Thank you.
700
00:34:19,982 --> 00:34:22,117
- Count me in!
- I got you.
701
00:34:22,118 --> 00:34:24,452
The boys on Wall Street sure
as hell don't have our backs.
702
00:34:24,453 --> 00:34:26,688
We got to stick together.
703
00:34:26,689 --> 00:34:30,825
Now come take one of these
flicks with us, new jack.
704
00:34:33,963 --> 00:34:36,064
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
705
00:34:37,466 --> 00:34:38,967
I guess I'm staying.
706
00:34:38,968 --> 00:34:40,669
Fire that camera up.
707
00:34:40,670 --> 00:34:42,737
Thank you.
708
00:34:42,738 --> 00:34:45,106
That's girl power.
709
00:34:45,107 --> 00:34:48,109
I am impressed.
710
00:34:48,110 --> 00:34:50,378
You were clearly the better woman today.
711
00:34:52,148 --> 00:34:54,349
And you're right.
712
00:34:54,350 --> 00:34:58,286
It's time that we put
these hostilities behind us.
713
00:35:02,020 --> 00:35:04,121
- Ma'am.

00:38:47,899 --> 00:38:50,568
Look.
771
00:38:50,569 --> 00:38:52,436
I don't know what's going on,
772
00:38:52,437 --> 00:38:54,438
or what the deal is
with you and your father.
773
00:38:54,439 --> 00:38:57,441
And it's none of my business.
774
00:38:57,442 --> 00:39:00,411
I just don't understand
why I haven't met him yet.
775
00:39:00,412 --> 00:39:02,413
'Cause I told you a million
different times, Warren,
776
00:39:02,414 --> 00:39:04,882
that it's-it's complicated.
777
00:39:04,883 --> 00:39:07,618
"It's complicated." Come on, boy.
778
00:39:07,619 --> 00:39:09,620
You embarrassed of me?
779
00:39:09,621 --> 00:39:11,455
Are you joking? Why would
I be embarrassed of you?
780
00:39:11,456 --> 00:39:13,491
Well, then, are you
embarrassed of your father?
781
00:39:16,027 --> 00:39:17,795
I just don't understand
why we're keeping secrets,
782
00:39:17,796 --> 00:39:19,330
that's all.
783
00:39:19,331 --> 00:39:20,765
"We"?
784
00:39:20,766 --> 00:39:23,667
I mean, are you keeping secrets?
785
00:39:28,473 --> 00:39:29,907
All right.
786
00:39:29,908 --> 00:39:33,744
I got daddy issues, too.
787
00:39:33,745 --> 00:39:35,713
My father's an attorney.
788
00:39:35,714 --> 00:39:39,216
Was an attorney.
789
00:39:39,217 --> 00:39:43,621
But now he's a degenerate
gambler and a drunk.
790
00:39:43,622 --> 00:39:46,757
I got accepted to Stanford.
791
00:39:46,758 --> 00:39:48,993
My father paid my tuition
792
00:39:48,994 --> 00:39:51,729
to a whole bunch of casinos in Vegas.
793
00:39:53,999 --> 00:39:57,935
Jamal, one of the things
that made me fall hard for you
794
00:39:57,936 --> 00:40:02,606
is when your father had his accident,
795
00:40:02,607 --> 00:40:04,241
how you loved him.
796
00:40:04,242 --> 00:40:07,812
I'll always wonder what that felt like.
797
00:40:07,813 --> 00:40:12,016
Maybe, maybe I was just
hanging around, trying to...
798
00:40:12,017 --> 00:40:13,451
be a part of that.
799
00:40:13,452 --> 00:40:17,588
But if you don't trust me...
800
00:40:17,589 --> 00:40:20,057
baby, what are we doing?
801
00:40:22,694 --> 00:40:25,329
I do trust you, though.
802
00:40:25,330 --> 00:40:26,831
Warren, come on, man.
803
00:40:26,832 --> 00:40:30,267
Ju... stop, stop all that.
804
00:40:31,970 --> 00:40:33,904
I trust you, all right?
805
00:40:35,807 --> 00:40:38,609
This is a lot. And-and my...
806
00:40:38,610 --> 00:40:41,612
My family, we got to keep it under wraps.
807
00:40:43,982 --> 00:40:45,983
My father has a serious brain injury
808
00:40:45,984 --> 00:40:49,687
and he, he don't really
remember us too much
809
00:40:49,688 --> 00:40:52,556
and he doesn't really remember himself.
810
00:40:57,896 --> 00:41:00,264
Come here.
811
00:41:31,396 --> 00:41:34,131
Lucious, what are you doing?
812
00:41:35,634 --> 00:41:37,768
They're Bella's paints.
813
00:41:37,769 --> 00:41:39,970
It relaxes me.
814
00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:50,814
All right, I'll leave you to it.
815
00:42:03,295 --> 00:42:06,330
Lucious, um...
816
00:42:07,933 --> 00:42:10,267
The reason why I was gone for 17 years
817
00:42:10,268 --> 00:42:13,003
is because I was in prison.
818
00:42:21,546 --> 00:42:24,415
Was it because of me?
819
00:42:25,917 --> 00:42:29,053
Women back then, who were in prison,
820
00:42:29,054 --> 00:42:31,221
they just complained
about how they were there
821
00:42:31,222 --> 00:42:34,024
because of their men.
822
00:42:35,994 --> 00:42:39,596
Yeah, Lucious, it's because of you.
823
00:42:44,135 --> 00:42:46,136
Good night.
824
00:42:46,137 --> 00:42:49,440
Um, Cookie.
825
00:42:49,441 --> 00:42:53,310
I'd like to hear about it.
826
00:42:53,311 --> 00:42:55,913
The whys and where.
827
00:42:55,914 --> 00:42:58,649
The reasons it was my fault.
828
00:42:58,650 --> 00:43:00,718
I want to know everything.
829
00:43:00,814 --> 00:43:04,599
