1
00:00:00,070 --> 00:00:02,531
- Previously on Empire...
- So I don't have ALS.
2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,366
Myasthenia gravis.
3
00:00:04,435 --> 00:00:05,868
Look, no matter what, Tiana,
4
00:00:05,937 --> 00:00:07,503
you're family to us.
5
00:00:07,572 --> 00:00:10,639
Yo, you tryin' to make
some money up in here?
6
00:00:10,708 --> 00:00:11,740
Plead guilty.
7
00:00:11,809 --> 00:00:13,075
I don't care how many of us
8
00:00:13,144 --> 00:00:14,210
you've locked behind bars.
9
00:00:14,278 --> 00:00:15,411
You ain't never gonna be nothing
10
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,246
but a black bitch in cheap shoes.
11
00:00:17,315 --> 00:00:19,515
In partnership with Mimi Whiteman,
12
00:00:19,584 --> 00:00:21,817
we have taken a controlling
interest in Empire.
13
00:00:21,886 --> 00:00:23,385
Sorry, brother, it's just business.
14
00:00:23,454 --> 00:00:24,487
Yeah, it's just business.
15
00:00:24,555 --> 00:00:27,022
- Right, Mimi?
- Lucious Lyon is Empire.
16
00:00:27,091 --> 00:00:28,824
Without him, the company is nothing.
17
00:00:28,893 --> 00:00:31,193
I'm gonna bury your album, Hakeem.
18
00:00:31,262 --> 00:00:33,462
Get out of my father's
house. You betrayed him.
19
00:00:33,531 --> 00:00:36,198
Who do you think you're talking to?
20
00:00:36,267 --> 00:00:37,867
You done now, lady.
21
00:00:42,740 --> 00:00:44,707
I gave my whole life to this place.
22
00:00:44,775 --> 00:00:47,176
My album done... now it's gone.
23
00:00:47,245 --> 00:00:48,277
Stop complainin'.
24
00:00:48,346 --> 00:00:50,246
We don't need this place.
25
00:00:50,314 --> 00:00:51,747
We can start our own company.
26
00:00:51,816 --> 00:00:53,849
I woke up this morning thinking
27
00:00:53,918 --> 00:00:55,951
why don't we do what the hell I said?
28
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:57,453
We gonna start our own company.
29
00:00:57,522 --> 00:00:58,754
It'll never work, Mom.
30
00:00:58,823 --> 00:00:59,855
The business has changed completely
31
00:00:59,924 --> 00:01:00,856
since you and Dad started out.
32
00:01:00,925 --> 00:01:02,525
This could work.
33
00:01:02,593 --> 00:01:03,926
We just need a dope name.
34
00:01:03,995 --> 00:01:05,628
We've got Hakeem.
35
00:01:05,696 --> 00:01:08,230
All he has to do is record
one more song for his album.
36
00:01:08,299 --> 00:01:09,965
Empire will never let us have that album.
37
00:01:10,034 --> 00:01:11,233
You heard Jamal. He's going to bury it.
38
00:01:11,302 --> 00:01:12,234
Let me deal with Jamal.
39
00:01:12,303 --> 00:01:13,369
All right, bye.
40
00:01:13,437 --> 00:01:15,337
Look, Mom, we need to go after Royale T,
41
00:01:15,406 --> 00:01:17,206
Ratzo and Tiana.
42
00:01:17,275 --> 00:01:18,474
No, I already talked to Tiana.
43
00:01:18,543 --> 00:01:19,675
She's down with us.
44
00:01:19,744 --> 00:01:21,644
We just gotta get you back into the studio.
45
00:01:21,712 --> 00:01:24,580
Okay, Mom, I'm so much
more than just a rapper.
46
00:01:24,649 --> 00:01:27,049
Let me develop my own artists.
47
00:01:27,118 --> 00:01:28,751
I bet Anika can get V.
48
00:01:28,819 --> 00:01:30,386
No! No. Anika's out.
49
00:01:30,454 --> 00:01:32,021
I don't want to see her lying face,
50
00:01:32,089 --> 00:01:33,389
you understand me, Keem?
51
00:01:33,457 --> 00:01:34,490
I told V we'd get straight to work
52
00:01:34,559 --> 00:01:35,591
recording her new single, so...
53
00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:37,126
Are you sure Cookie wants me?
54
00:01:37,195 --> 00:01:38,794
Yeah, she definitely wants you.
55
00:01:38,863 --> 00:01:40,062
Pride of the Lyons is wack.
56
00:01:40,131 --> 00:01:41,130
It's a terrible name.
57
00:01:41,199 --> 00:01:42,598
Did you tell Mom you talked to Anika?
58
00:01:42,667 --> 00:01:44,633
Man, she don't want nothing to do with her,
59
00:01:44,702 --> 00:01:46,936
- Thank you.
-... but I told Anika to come anyway.
60
00:01:47,004 --> 00:01:49,638
Nah, I like Pride of the Lyons better.
61
00:01:49,707 --> 00:01:51,774
Look, we can call it
whatever you want, baby,
62
00:01:51,842 --> 00:01:53,375
as long as you in it with me.
63
00:01:53,444 --> 00:01:54,843
I think you should reconsider Anika.
64
00:01:54,912 --> 00:01:56,378
She's one of the top A&Rs in the business.
65
00:01:56,447 --> 00:01:59,748
I don't care how good she
is, I don't trust her ass.
66
00:01:59,817 --> 00:02:01,784
I just need you with me on this, baby.
67
00:02:01,852 --> 00:02:03,152
I'm thinking about it, Ma.
68
00:02:03,221 --> 00:02:04,653
Just give me a second to breathe.
69
00:02:06,657 --> 00:02:08,657
I actually think it could work.
70
00:02:10,828 --> 00:02:11,760
Hello?
71
00:02:11,829 --> 00:02:13,329
Hey, Ma, I want to start
72
00:02:13,397 --> 00:02:14,597
a girl group like Destiny's Child.
73
00:02:14,665 --> 00:02:16,198
That's a great idea, Keem.
74
00:02:16,267 --> 00:02:18,467
Look, I think I got a space for us to rent
75
00:02:18,536 --> 00:02:19,902
if Andre can cut us a deal.
76
00:02:19,971 --> 00:02:20,903
Is Andre in?
77
00:02:20,972 --> 00:02:22,538
Well, he's gonna be.
78
00:02:22,607 --> 00:02:24,540
Look, just meet me at
Ghetto Ass Studio tomorrow.
79
00:02:24,609 --> 00:02:27,276
She's kidding, right?
80
00:02:27,345 --> 00:02:29,678
Forget Lyon's Den, let's
just call it The Pigsty.
81
00:02:29,747 --> 00:02:30,679
Man, we need a name like Em...
82
00:02:30,748 --> 00:02:31,680
Forget the name, okay?
83
00:02:31,749 --> 00:02:33,182
The name is beside the point.
84
00:02:33,251 --> 00:02:35,517
You ain't born with your
name. You grow into it.
85
00:02:35,586 --> 00:02:38,420
Yeah, when we started
Empire, we wasn't no Empire.
86
00:02:38,489 --> 00:02:41,190
Making music in Carol's living room
87
00:02:41,259 --> 00:02:43,359
until we graduated to a garage
88
00:02:43,427 --> 00:02:45,694
that was way grimier than this place.
89
00:02:45,763 --> 00:02:49,198
But see, it was those first few
songs that planted the seeds.
90
00:02:49,267 --> 00:02:52,001
Then I had to sit on the sidelines
91
00:02:52,069 --> 00:02:53,669
and watch Lucious grow it
92
00:02:53,738 --> 00:02:55,871
into a multimillion-dollar company
93
00:02:55,940 --> 00:02:59,675
worthy of a name like Empire.
94
00:02:59,744 --> 00:03:02,077
It's my time.
95
00:03:02,146 --> 00:03:03,545
So whatever we call it,
96
00:03:03,614 --> 00:03:05,614
as long as Momma's got
something to do with it,
97
00:03:05,683 --> 00:03:07,650
it's gonna live up to its name.
98
00:03:07,718 --> 00:03:08,884
Let's go.

You need what?
101
00:03:17,995 --> 00:03:19,061
I want to make a deal
102
00:03:19,130 --> 00:03:20,195
for using this space
103
00:03:20,264 --> 00:03:21,664
as our main base of operations.
104
00:03:21,732 --> 00:03:23,065
That's crazy.
105
00:03:23,134 --> 00:03:24,066
You crazy.
106
00:03:24,135 --> 00:03:25,467
Oh, I know I'm crazy.
107
00:03:25,536 --> 00:03:26,669
Everybody knows my mother's crazy.
108
00:03:26,737 --> 00:03:28,070
You're already in one of our studios.
109
00:03:28,139 --> 00:03:29,738

V...
116
00:03:43,788 --> 00:03:46,355
You sound amazing.
117
00:03:46,424 --> 00:03:47,956
Um, there's just one little thing
118
00:03:48,025 --> 00:03:49,958
that I think I want to tweak.
119
00:03:50,027 --> 00:03:51,193
I feel like we might need just to...
120
00:03:51,262 --> 00:03:52,328
I know what we need.
121
00:03:52,396 --> 00:03:53,829
'Cause I wrote it.
122
00:03:53,898 --> 00:03:55,431
Okay, look,
123
00:03:55,499 --> 00:03:56,632
I am on your side.
124
00:03:56,701 --> 00:03:57,866
All right?
125
00:03:57,935 --> 00:03:59,368
Now, I understand that you're frustrated.
126
00:03:59,437 --> 00:04:00,369
I get it.
127
00:04:00,438 --> 00:04:02,404
You know what?
128
00:04:02,473 --> 00:04:04,306
I can't.
129
00:04:04,375 --> 00:04:06,208
V...
130
00:04:06,277 --> 00:04:07,376
V, wait, wait wait, wait.
131
00:04:07,445 --> 00:04:08,944
Beat it, Boo Boo Kitty.
132
00:04:09,013 --> 00:04:10,446
I'm working with Veronica now.
133
00:04:10,514 --> 00:04:12,748
I don't even know why you here.
134
00:04:12,817 --> 00:04:14,983
Okay, let's hear it from the top.
135
00:04:15,052 --> 00:04:16,852
You know, this place remind me
136
00:04:16,921 --> 00:04:18,921
of the free clinic back in Philly.
137
00:04:20,391 --> 00:04:21,323
We all right over there?
138
00:04:21,392 --> 00:04:22,991
Uh... no, actually.
139
00:04:23,060 --> 00:04:24,893
I don't have your authorization form.
140
00:04:24,962 --> 00:04:26,962
What are you talking about?
141
00:04:27,031 --> 00:04:28,097
It was in your file
142
00:04:28,165 --> 00:04:29,431
when you got your meds, a few days ago.
143
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:30,599
Now it's not.
144
00:04:30,668 --> 00:04:32,434
Oh, come on, man, I'm in here every week.
145
00:04:32,503 --> 00:04:33,769
I got myasthenia gravis.
146
00:04:33,838 --> 00:04:36,105
I sit down, you demonstrate on my vein...
147
00:04:36,173 --> 00:04:37,806
I need my meds, pops.
148
00:04:37,875 --> 00:04:39,141
Mr. Lyon, I can't dispense your meds
149
00:04:39,210 --> 00:04:40,142
without the authorization form
150
00:04:40,211 --> 00:04:41,443
or I'm gonna get fired.
151
00:04:41,512 --> 00:04:43,245
You gonna get worse than
fired if you don't give me
152
00:04:43,314 --> 00:04:44,446
my meds right now.
153
00:04:44,515 --> 00:04:45,547
- I need...
- Come on, Mr. Lyon.
154
00:04:45,616 --> 00:04:46,648
- Oh, come on...
- Really? Really?
155
00:04:46,717 --> 00:04:47,750
Do I really gotta push the button?
156
00:04:47,818 --> 00:04:49,251
Come on, I know it ain't your fault.
157
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,619
- I know you gotta...
- There's nothing I can do about it.
158
00:04:50,688 --> 00:04:52,721
It's probably just a filing mistake.
159
00:04:52,790 --> 00:04:54,022
If I were you...
160
00:04:54,091 --> 00:04:55,357
call your lawyer. Right away.
161
00:04:55,426 --> 00:04:57,459

That was amazing.
186
00:06:07,565 --> 00:06:09,064
Thank you so much. Thank you.
187
00:06:09,133 --> 00:06:10,799
Looking forward to speaking to you.
188
00:06:10,868 --> 00:06:12,434
Oh, looking forward to
speaking to you, as well.
189
00:06:12,503 --> 00:06:14,336
I'm so happy you even want to talk to me.
190
00:06:14,405 --> 00:06:15,337
Oh, of course.
191
00:06:15,406 --> 00:06:16,872
- Thank you.
- Who wouldn't?
192
00:06:16,941 --> 00:06:17,873
- Okay.
- Rolling!
193
00:06:17,942 --> 00:06:20,042
- Jamal Lyon.
- Yes.
194
00:06:20,110 --> 00:06:22,344
Wow, look at you!
195
00:06:22,413 --> 00:06:24,079
Thank you for that incredible song.
196
00:06:24,148 --> 00:06:26,682
- Thank you.
- And for inviting us into
197
00:06:26,750 --> 00:06:28,016
- your gorgeous home.
- Of course.
198
00:06:28,085 --> 00:06:29,751
- Any time. Yeah.
- We're so lucky
199
00:06:29,820 --> 00:06:31,086
to have you here on Spilling the Tea.
200
00:06:31,155 --> 00:06:32,921
As you can see from our P.A.
201
00:06:32,990 --> 00:06:35,190
over there, who has a little crush on you,
202
00:06:35,259 --> 00:06:37,726
you have quite the female fans.
203
00:06:37,795 --> 00:06:38,794
Yeah, they're beautiful.
204
00:06:38,863 --> 00:06:40,762
I love them so much.
205
00:06:40,831 --> 00:06:42,130
How do you deal with that?
206
00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:44,066
How do you feel, having all of these women
207
00:06:44,134 --> 00:06:46,001
showering you with attention
208
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:48,003
and going crazy over you? Men, as well,
209
00:06:48,072 --> 00:06:49,538
by the way.
210
00:06:49,607 --> 00:06:51,273
It's great. I mean, we-we love,
211
00:06:51,342 --> 00:06:52,541
we love everybody. It's beautiful.
212
00:06:52,610 --> 00:06:54,243
It must be tough on relationships,
213
00:06:54,311 --> 00:06:55,777
- though, right?
- No, I don't think so.
214
00:06:55,846 --> 00:06:57,980
Um, if, uh, if the relationship is solid.
215
00:06:58,048 --> 00:06:59,715
- I don't...
- It doesn't cause jealousy?
216
00:06:59,783 --> 00:07:01,350
No, I don't... No.
217
00:07:01,418 --> 00:07:02,751
His name is Michael.
218
00:07:02,820 --> 00:07:04,920
He's a little shy, but trust me, ladies,
219
00:07:04,989 --> 00:07:06,788
he is adorable.
220
00:07:06,857 --> 00:07:09,124
Plus, he cooked us the most amazing meal
221
00:07:09,193 --> 00:07:11,293
while we were setting up. But still,
222
00:07:11,362 --> 00:07:12,528
you know you're a lucky
guy, Michael, right?
223
00:07:12,596 --> 00:07:13,629
- Yeah.
- Nah.
224
00:07:13,697 --> 00:07:14,830
No, no, I'm the lucky one.
225
00:07:14,899 --> 00:07:15,931
So, Jamal,
226
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,933
can we expect a new album,
227
00:07:18,002 --> 00:07:20,235
a new Jamal Lyon album, any time soon?
228
00:07:20,304 --> 00:07:21,970
You know we're all waiting for it.
229
00:07:22,039 --> 00:07:24,306
Uh, I don't know about "soon."
230
00:07:24,375 --> 00:07:27,142
Uh... I am creating music.
231
00:07:27,211 --> 00:07:28,644
You know, it's my everything,
232
00:07:28,712 --> 00:07:30,812
and, you know, just been a little...
233
00:07:30,881 --> 00:07:31,980
I've been a little busy.
234
00:07:32,049 --> 00:07:32,981
You've been a little busy,
235
00:07:33,050 --> 00:07:34,449
- haven't you?
- A little busy, yeah.
236
00:07:34,518 --> 00:07:35,784
But while your father is
still awaiting trial...
237
00:07:35,853 --> 00:07:38,520
- Mm-hmm?
- Can you talk to us about that?
238
00:07:38,589 --> 00:07:40,155
I know it must be hard for you.
239
00:07:40,224 --> 00:07:42,591
Yeah. Uh, I can't say too much about it,
240
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:44,159
but, you know, I'm...
241
00:07:44,228 --> 00:07:45,994
just that I'm working on my music,
242
00:07:46,063 --> 00:07:48,664
a-as always, and making sure
243
00:07:48,732 --> 00:07:50,666
that I continue to make smart
244
00:07:50,734 --> 00:07:52,801
business decisions, you know.
245
00:07:52,870 --> 00:07:54,303
But, sure, what my dad is going through,
246
00:07:54,371 --> 00:07:57,105
it's-it's
hard. It's hard on us all.
247
00:07:57,174 --> 00:07:58,307
Yes, and that's why it's gonna
248
00:07:58,375 --> 00:07:59,975
take all of us to get through it.
249
00:08:00,044 --> 00:08:01,443
Uh, Jamal, I need to talk to you.
250
00:08:01,512 --> 00:08:02,444
Wait, isn't this your...
251
00:08:02,513 --> 00:08:03,779
This is my mother.
252
00:08:03,847 --> 00:08:05,347
- I'm sorry, you guys.
- And his producer and manager,
253
00:08:05,416 --> 00:08:06,882
until a couple of hours ago.
254
00:08:06,951 --> 00:08:08,483
Cookie Lyon. We spoke on the phone, Sharon.
255
00:08:08,552 --> 00:08:09,685
Good to see you.
256
00:08:09,753 --> 00:08:11,386
- Mm-hmm.
- Uh-huh. Yeah, Mom.
257
00:08:11,455 --> 00:08:13,221
Let's go. Come on.
258
00:08:14,658 --> 00:08:17,159
I am trying to do an interview,
in case you didn't notice.
259
00:08:17,227 --> 00:08:18,594
In case you have not noticed,
260
00:08:18,662 --> 00:08:20,095
I set up that interview.
261
00:08:20,164 --> 00:08:21,396
I have to get to the lawyer after this,
262
00:08:21,465 --> 00:08:22,798
to try to get my father out of jail,
263
00:08:22,866 --> 00:08:23,999
since you all bailed on him,
264
00:08:24,068 --> 00:08:25,634
so can we make this quick? Please?
265
00:08:25,703 --> 00:08:28,203
Look, I need to talk to you about Hakeem.
266
00:08:28,272 --> 00:08:29,371
Oh. Little baby traitor.
267
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,341
He didn't do anything to hurt you, Jamal.
268
00:08:32,409 --> 00:08:34,276
He was hurt. By Lucious.
269
00:08:34,345 --> 00:08:36,411
And I know you know what that feels like.
270
00:08:41,285 --> 00:08:43,819
I need you to give Hakeem his album back.
271
00:08:43,887 --> 00:08:45,854
Why would I do that?
272
00:08:48,025 --> 00:08:49,224
Jamal, you already won.
273
00:08:49,293 --> 00:08:53,028
You run the Empire.
274
00:08:53,097 --> 00:08:55,097
All Hakeem's got is his music.
275
00:08:57,167 --> 00:08:59,835
I know you.
276
00:08:59,903 --> 00:09:03,939
See, Lucious is trying to
make you like him, but...
277
00:09:04,008 --> 00:09:05,974
you ain't him.
278
00:09:06,043 --> 00:09:09,144
So come on in here, walk
me to these elevators.
279
00:09:09,213 --> 00:09:11,647
Show these cameras how good
you're being to your mom.
280
00:09:11,715 --> 00:09:13,115
It's Mom. Can't say nothing to Mom.
281
00:09:13,183 --> 00:09:14,783
I'm sorry for the interruption.
282
00:09:14,852 --> 00:09:16,485
Sharon, it was good to see you, girl.
283
00:09:16,553 --> 00:09:18,153
Yeah. Sorry, Sharon.
284
00:09:18,222 --> 00:09:20,255
- We just have some business to finish up.
- That's right. I'll be back.
285
00:09:23,761 --> 00:09:24,993
Oh, and, uh, Jamal...
286
00:09:25,062 --> 00:09:26,361
one last thing:
287
00:09:26,430 --> 00:09:28,263
I wanted to tell you first,
288
00:09:28,332 --> 00:09:30,132
before you hear it out
here in these streets.
289
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,202
Me, Andre and Hakeem, we're
starting our own company.
290
00:09:39,446 --> 00:09:41,079
Come on, man, don't
let him by you like that!
291
00:09:41,148 --> 00:09:42,480
You see this?
292
00:09:42,549 --> 00:09:43,782
Stayed in Iraq too long.
293
00:09:43,850 --> 00:09:45,217
First off all, we ain't had no business
294
00:09:45,285 --> 00:09:46,451
over there in the first place.
295
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,053
Their infrastructure wasn't ready.
296
00:09:48,121 --> 00:09:49,421
You guys paying attention
297
00:09:49,489 --> 00:09:50,822
to Professor Clyde here,
298
00:09:50,891 --> 00:09:54,092
showing off about how much
he reads the newspapers?
299
00:09:54,161 --> 00:09:55,927
That's what type of time we on.
300
00:09:57,531 --> 00:10:00,265
Hey, Lucious, you finish
writing that verse yet or what?
301
00:10:00,334 --> 00:10:01,766
Damn Skippy I did.
302
00:10:01,835 --> 00:10:03,535
Oh, man.
303
00:10:03,604 --> 00:10:04,836
Run that.
304
00:10:04,905 --> 00:10:07,172
- Run that.
- Man, I get paid to perform.
305
00:10:07,241 --> 00:10:09,874
Man, you get paid to shut
this whole place down.
306
00:10:11,411 --> 00:10:12,344
All right.
307
00:10:12,412 --> 00:10:14,412
Oh, yeah.
308
00:10:14,481 --> 00:10:16,381

342
00:11:26,586 --> 00:11:28,219
party's over.
343
00:11:28,288 --> 00:11:30,588
Now, get the hell off my table, boys.
344
00:11:31,425 --> 00:11:32,590
We men.
345
00:11:32,659 --> 00:11:33,625
Excuse me?
346
00:11:33,694 --> 00:11:34,693
You called us "boys."
347
00:11:34,761 --> 00:11:36,027
Ain't no boys over here; we men.
348
00:11:36,096 --> 00:11:38,163
Oh, come on, Clyde. Don't mind him, man.
349
00:11:38,231 --> 00:11:39,998
We used to punk bitches
like that back in the day.
350
00:11:40,067 --> 00:11:41,066
Go on about your business.
351
00:11:41,134 --> 00:11:42,801
Did you just threaten me, boy?
352
00:11:42,869 --> 00:11:44,736
What?
353
00:11:44,805 --> 00:11:46,838
Oh, come on, man! What you gonna do?
354
00:11:49,676 --> 00:11:50,709
Get his ass out of here.
355
00:11:50,777 --> 00:11:52,544
- Come on.

I spoke to Jamal and I asked
him to give it back to Hakeem.

- Did he say yes?
- Not yet.

Hakeem needs to be recording new music
442
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,120

Contrary to the little
pack of lap dogs you got
446
00:15:03,837 --> 00:15:06,070
following you around up in
here, you see not everybody's
447
00:15:06,139 --> 00:15:08,072
interested in being up your ass, Lyon.
448
00:15:08,141 --> 00:15:10,108
Then tell me what your interests are,
449
00:15:10,176 --> 00:15:11,809
McKnight.
450
00:15:11,878 --> 00:15:13,411
My interest is that
451
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,812
your wheezing and your breath...
452
00:15:14,881 --> 00:15:16,748
I'm a little concerned about that.
453
00:15:16,816 --> 00:15:18,583
Is it, is it getting any better?
454
00:15:18,652 --> 00:15:20,285
Oh, it's fine.
455
00:15:20,353 --> 00:15:21,819
I'm touched that y'all care.
456
00:15:21,888 --> 00:15:24,122
We don't care.
457
00:15:24,190 --> 00:15:26,357
Matter of fact, we-we could give a damn.
458
00:15:26,426 --> 00:15:30,228
You see, I think you make us all look bad.
459
00:15:30,297 --> 00:15:32,463
As far as I'm concerned,
460
00:15:32,532 --> 00:15:34,999
the world would be a better
place without you in it.
461
00:15:35,068 --> 00:15:37,602
But the Federal Prosecutor,
462
00:15:37,671 --> 00:15:40,004
Ms. Roxanne Ford...
463
00:15:40,073 --> 00:15:42,307
she's more forgiving than me.
464
00:15:42,375 --> 00:15:44,876
And that medication of yours...
465
00:15:44,945 --> 00:15:46,811
It might just magically
466
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,547
turn up if you just be a
little more cooperative.
467
00:15:50,850 --> 00:15:52,850
Think about that.
468
00:16:03,460 --> 00:16:06,775
So, Tiana's in the big studio
tomorrow, working on a new song.
469
00:16:06,843 --> 00:16:09,444
It'll be our first shot at
releasing a single.
470
00:16:09,513 --> 00:16:13,014
Can I just worry
about my girl group, please?
471
00:16:13,083 --> 00:16:15,617
You mean your personal
speed dating service?
472
00:16:15,686 --> 00:16:16,951
Look, I haven't found my Beyoncé yet,
473
00:16:17,020 --> 00:16:19,321
but I found a couple
girls that's really good.
474
00:16:19,389 --> 00:16:21,523
You know, but they're both Hispanic.
475
00:16:21,591 --> 00:16:23,458
Ain't nothing wrong
with a couple of J-Lo's
476
00:16:23,527 --> 00:16:25,260
as long as they can really sing.
477
00:16:25,329 --> 00:16:26,695
Well, damn.
478
00:16:29,132 --> 00:16:30,165
What is she doing here?
479
00:16:30,233 --> 00:16:32,233
What-what are you doing here?
480
00:16:32,302 --> 00:16:33,234
We need to talk about Vee.
481
00:16:33,303 --> 00:16:35,203
We don't need to talk about nothing.
482
00:16:35,272 --> 00:16:36,638
You need to get out.
483
00:16:36,707 --> 00:16:38,473
- Why do you keep coming around?
- Mom, Mom...
484
00:16:38,542 --> 00:16:39,974
- Don't nobody want you
here, Anika! - Enough, enough!
485
00:16:40,043 --> 00:16:41,976
Hakeem,
486
00:16:42,045 --> 00:16:43,578
what's the problem with the two Latinas?
487
00:16:43,647 --> 00:16:45,113
Uh, look, I thought it'd be cool...
488
00:16:45,182 --> 00:16:46,881
We had one white girl, you know,
489
00:16:46,950 --> 00:16:48,249
one black girl and one Hispanic.
490
00:16:48,318 --> 00:16:50,218
I'm-a call 'em Rainbow Sensation.
491
00:16:52,155 --> 00:16:53,988
Boom... platinum album.
492
00:16:54,057 --> 00:16:56,358
That's the dumbest name I ever heard.
493
00:16:56,426 --> 00:16:58,760
Actually, that may be the
dumbest name known to man.
494
00:16:58,829 --> 00:17:00,295
Did your daddy drop you on your head?
495
00:17:00,364 --> 00:17:01,463
Anika liked it.
496
00:17:01,531 --> 00:17:03,598
The concept, not the name.
497
00:17:03,667 --> 00:17:04,866
It's a marketable concept.
498
00:17:04,935 --> 00:17:06,101
Yeah...
499
00:17:06,169 --> 00:17:07,702
And Anika knows marketing.
500
00:17:07,771 --> 00:17:10,638
She made a whole career selling her ass.
501
00:17:10,707 --> 00:17:11,873
Oh, as opposed to you
502
00:17:11,942 --> 00:17:13,641
and your stellar career in pharmaceuticals?
503
00:17:13,710 --> 00:17:16,411
Let me tell you something, ho.
504
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,480
If it weren't for women like me,
505
00:17:18,548 --> 00:17:21,983
bitches like you would spend
a lifetime on your knees.
506
00:17:22,052 --> 00:17:25,720
Or underneath my
20-year-old son.
507
00:17:25,789 --> 00:17:27,288
Mom, it's none of your
business who I get dirty with.
508
00:17:27,357 --> 00:17:29,157

509
00:17:29,226 --> 00:17:30,992
Hey, you need the luck, girl.
510
00:17:31,061 --> 00:17:32,594
I don't understand what part of
511
00:17:32,662 --> 00:17:34,729
"don't want you here" you don't get.
512
00:17:39,503 --> 00:17:41,469
- There you go.
- All right, good.
513
00:17:41,538 --> 00:17:42,670
Thank you, brother. Appreciate it.
514
00:17:42,739 --> 00:17:45,907
I thinking about, uh,
giving Hakeem back his album.
515
00:17:45,976 --> 00:17:47,942
With our stock plummeting.
516
00:17:48,011 --> 00:17:50,812
What kind of message that
gonna send to the shareholders?
517
00:17:50,881 --> 00:17:52,280
That we're completely
unthreatened by Cookie Lyon
518
00:17:52,349 --> 00:17:54,182
and her little startup.
519
00:17:54,251 --> 00:17:55,917
What are they calling it?
520
00:17:55,986 --> 00:17:57,218
It ain't got a name yet.
521
00:17:57,287 --> 00:17:59,554
'Cause they plan on
piggybacking off of mine.
522
00:18:00,791 --> 00:18:02,690
Hakeem belongs at Empire.
523
00:18:02,759 --> 00:18:04,993
If he wants his album heard,
524
00:18:05,061 --> 00:18:06,861
he gonna have to come back to the Empire.
525
00:18:06,930 --> 00:18:08,363
You got to make that happen.
526
00:18:10,634 --> 00:18:12,300
All right.
527
00:18:17,073 --> 00:18:18,873
Dad, what's the matter?
528
00:18:18,942 --> 00:18:20,175
What's wrong with you?
529
00:18:20,243 --> 00:18:21,309
Nothing.
530
00:18:21,378 --> 00:18:23,344
Fine.
531
00:18:23,413 --> 00:18:24,846
In fact, I'm better than fine, man.
532
00:18:24,915 --> 00:18:28,383

I made my own heat.
534
00:18:30,954 --> 00:18:32,120
Yeah?
535
00:18:32,189 --> 00:18:33,421
I'm actually thinking about doing
536
00:18:33,490 --> 00:18:35,590
a Lucious Lyon joint from the joint.
537
00:18:37,828 --> 00:18:39,360
While I'm still in here.
538
00:18:39,429 --> 00:18:41,129
Be so dope, Dad.
539
00:18:41,198 --> 00:18:42,530
That gonna be epic.
540
00:18:42,599 --> 00:18:44,966
Beautiful. Hey, son.
541
00:18:45,035 --> 00:18:46,701
How you gonna do that up in here?
542
00:18:46,770 --> 00:18:48,303
Just get me, um,
543
00:18:48,371 --> 00:18:51,206
some basic recording equipment: a laptop...
544
00:18:51,274 --> 00:18:54,242
and, uh, they got a new thing...
545
00:18:54,311 --> 00:18:56,177
A mini twister.
546
00:18:56,246 --> 00:18:59,814
And they got a Step Up,
too. Get me a Step Up, too.
547
00:18:59,883 --> 00:19:01,349
Excuse me.
548
00:19:01,418 --> 00:19:02,417
Couldn't help overhearing.
549
00:19:02,486 --> 00:19:04,219
My name is Thurston Rawlings.
550
00:19:04,287 --> 00:19:05,820
Friends call me Thirsty.
551
00:19:05,889 --> 00:19:07,255
I think I could be of some service.
552
00:19:07,324 --> 00:19:09,324
Purple suit, no cross talk!
553
00:19:09,392 --> 00:19:10,892
Okay.
554
00:19:10,961 --> 00:19:12,460
Oh, you're a lawyer, huh?
555
00:19:12,529 --> 00:19:14,429
We got a lawyer, man. Thank you.
556
00:19:14,498 --> 00:19:16,164
I don't doubt that, but if
you don't mind me asking,
557
00:19:16,233 --> 00:19:18,566
when's the last time they
got you a bail hearing?
558
00:19:18,635 --> 00:19:21,803
And where did you go to law
school, Mr., uh, Rawlings?
559
00:19:21,872 --> 00:19:23,004
University of Guam.
560
00:19:23,073 --> 00:19:24,639
Now, I know it's not Harvard, but...
561
00:19:24,708 --> 00:19:26,841
same curriculum, different campus.
562
00:19:26,910 --> 00:19:28,276
You're preaching to the choir, man.
563
00:19:28,345 --> 00:19:30,678
Harvard ain't done
nothing for me these days.
564
00:19:30,747 --> 00:19:33,581
You think you can do better, Thirsty?
565
00:19:33,650 --> 00:19:34,983
- Wait...
- I wouldn't waste your time, Mr. Lyons.
566
00:19:35,051 --> 00:19:36,251
Hey, you, you're out of bounds!
567
00:19:36,319 --> 00:19:37,619
I'm sorry, man, hold on one second.
568
00:19:39,022 --> 00:19:42,690
I ain't trying to knock
nobody's hustle, but...
569
00:19:42,759 --> 00:19:46,427
University of Guam with
the... the discount suit?
570
00:19:46,496 --> 00:19:47,862
Really?
571
00:19:47,931 --> 00:19:49,264
No disrespect, son, but I don't think
572
00:19:49,332 --> 00:19:51,099
Ms. Roxanne Ford gives a damn where I shop.
573
00:19:51,167 --> 00:19:52,534
Do you?
574
00:19:55,705 --> 00:19:57,105
What do you know about her?
575
00:19:57,173 --> 00:19:58,640
Withholding your meds?
576
00:19:58,708 --> 00:19:59,974
That's one of her stunts.
577
00:20:00,043 --> 00:20:02,043
She's trying to get you
to cop a guilty plea.
578
00:20:02,112 --> 00:20:04,512
Mama plays dirty, but I got no qualms
579
00:20:04,581 --> 00:20:05,747
getting in the mud with her.
580
00:20:05,815 --> 00:20:06,781
Discount suit and all.
581
00:20:06,850 --> 00:20:07,782
All right, let's go.
582
00:20:07,851 --> 00:20:08,983
Yes, I am ready to go, Officer.
583
00:20:09,052 --> 00:20:10,151
Thank you very much.
584
00:20:14,991 --> 00:20:17,792
Set up a meeting.
585
00:20:17,861 --> 00:20:19,060
And five, six,
586
00:20:19,129 --> 00:20:20,495
seven, eight...

00:20:23,133 --> 00:20:25,700
Yeah, groove it out, groove it out!
588
00:20:28,305 --> 00:20:29,370

You on fire, Mama.
617
00:21:30,867 --> 00:21:32,934
I want to know where you learned that from.
618
00:21:33,003 --> 00:21:34,202
Do you got that song that you owe me?
619
00:21:34,270 --> 00:21:35,436
Nah, not yet.
620
00:21:35,505 --> 00:21:37,372
You know, I'm a little
hectic right now, but...
621
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,873
Mm, I get it.
622
00:21:38,942 --> 00:21:39,907
I know how it goes.
623
00:21:39,976 --> 00:21:41,376
You trying to be Diddy and all.
624
00:21:41,444 --> 00:21:43,244
Ti, you know, that's what
I want to talk to you about.
625
00:21:43,313 --> 00:21:44,379
What's up?
626
00:21:44,447 --> 00:21:46,714
My girl group.
627
00:21:46,783 --> 00:21:48,249
Oh, you want me to like...
628
00:21:48,318 --> 00:21:49,917
rehearse with them and
coach them and stuff?
629
00:21:49,986 --> 00:21:51,252
I want you to join them.
630
00:21:51,321 --> 00:21:53,287
- You're kidding, right?
- Listen, Ti.
631
00:21:53,356 --> 00:21:54,722
This could be big for you.
632
00:21:54,791 --> 00:21:56,257
And I'm talking about you being
633
00:21:56,326 --> 00:21:57,558
in the forefront of the whole situation.
634
00:21:57,627 --> 00:21:59,927
But I'm already in the
front of my own situation.
635
00:21:59,996 --> 00:22:02,430
And if this is what this company
is gonna be about, then, like...
636
00:22:02,499 --> 00:22:04,365
Hey, hey, hey. What happened?
637
00:22:04,434 --> 00:22:06,267
Nothing, I just offered
an opportunity to be a part
638
00:22:06,336 --> 00:22:07,935
of a groundbreaking musical phenomenon.
639
00:22:08,004 --> 00:22:09,337
Cookie, if this is what this company
640
00:22:09,406 --> 00:22:10,738
is gonna be about, I'm out.
641
00:22:10,807 --> 00:22:14,308
Uh, Tiana, look, um, Hakeem
is just a little overexcited.
642
00:22:14,377 --> 00:22:17,378
Come to my office, I want to
talk to you about something.
643
00:22:29,159 --> 00:22:30,258
Get in.
644
00:22:36,032 --> 00:22:37,965
What's up, boss man?
645
00:22:38,034 --> 00:22:39,634
I ain't your boss man.
646
00:22:39,703 --> 00:22:43,905
I saw Dad today, and he
wants you back at Empire.
647
00:22:43,973 --> 00:22:46,441
So do I.
648
00:22:46,509 --> 00:22:47,775
Why now?
649
00:22:47,844 --> 00:22:49,844
'Cause we're family.
650
00:22:51,848 --> 00:22:53,781
And it's time to move past what y'all did.
651
00:22:53,850 --> 00:22:56,784
So that mean you'll bring
Cookie and Andre back too.
652
00:22:56,853 --> 00:22:58,720
That's what you're saying?
653
00:22:58,788 --> 00:23:00,855
Let's take it one step
at a time, all right?
654
00:23:02,826 --> 00:23:06,427
Hakeem, you got a huge career ahead of you.
655
00:23:06,496 --> 00:23:08,463
Come back to Empire,
we'll release your album,
656
00:23:08,531 --> 00:23:10,531
give it a huge push, the whole thing.
657
00:23:11,935 --> 00:23:14,936
Come on, fool, don't be crazy, you know it.
658
00:23:31,387 --> 00:23:32,720
Let's go.
659
00:23:34,288 --> 00:23:35,521
Adios amigos...
660
00:23:35,589 --> 00:23:37,189
What?
661
00:23:37,258 --> 00:23:38,924
- You got to teach me Spanish.
- Mm-hmm.
662
00:23:38,993 --> 00:23:41,260
I studied my ass off in 12th grade,
663
00:23:41,328 --> 00:23:43,462
and I still flunked español.
664
00:23:43,531 --> 00:23:45,764
Come here.
665
00:23:45,833 --> 00:23:47,666
♪ Hating on the sideline, debt that ♪
666
00:23:47,735 --> 00:23:50,502
♪ She know exactly where
she can find the best at ♪
667
00:23:50,571 --> 00:23:53,038

669
00:23:55,142 --> 00:23:57,743
So you're really not doing
your little girl group?
670
00:23:57,812 --> 00:23:59,445
I'm thinking about going back to Empire.
671
00:23:59,513 --> 00:24:02,114
See, if that girl group
was a part of Empire,
672
00:24:02,183 --> 00:24:04,116
then I would definitely be a part of it.
673
00:24:04,185 --> 00:24:08,787
Empire is hip-hop legendary.
674
00:24:08,856 --> 00:24:11,490
I'm trying to be a legend, aren't you?
675
00:24:13,661 --> 00:24:15,360
What can I get for you, pretty lady?
676
00:24:16,764 --> 00:24:19,598
Nothing, thanks.
677
00:24:19,667 --> 00:24:22,267
I haven't really been
drinking too much lately.
678
00:24:22,336 --> 00:24:24,203
Oh, well...
679
00:24:24,271 --> 00:24:26,905
I am drinking much more than usual.
680
00:24:28,309 --> 00:24:29,641
What's up?
681
00:24:32,346 --> 00:24:34,947
Um...
682
00:24:35,015 --> 00:24:36,281
God, I'm so nervous.
683
00:24:36,350 --> 00:24:38,016
- I...
- Why?
684
00:24:40,488 --> 00:24:44,089
Well... I'm not supposed to be here,
685
00:24:44,158 --> 00:24:47,426
so if I could talk to you in confidence.
686
00:24:47,495 --> 00:24:49,761
Andre would kill me if he knew I were here.
687
00:24:49,830 --> 00:24:53,065
I'm not gonna say anything, I swear.
688
00:24:53,133 --> 00:24:55,400
I'm scared for him, Jamal.
689
00:24:55,469 --> 00:24:58,403
He's miserable.
690
00:24:58,472 --> 00:25:00,472
Empire is everything to him,
691
00:25:00,541 --> 00:25:03,141
and, without it, he's completely lost.
692
00:25:03,210 --> 00:25:04,676
Yeah, well, then why is
he doing the whole thing
693
00:25:04,745 --> 00:25:06,144
- with my mom and Hakeem like that?
- I know, I know.
694
00:25:06,213 --> 00:25:07,479
But that's not him.
695
00:25:07,548 --> 00:25:09,014
That's not who he is.
696
00:25:10,684 --> 00:25:12,618
Look, Andre messed up.
697
00:25:12,686 --> 00:25:14,286
Obviously. He knows that.
698
00:25:14,355 --> 00:25:17,289
But I'm asking you, as his brother,
699
00:25:17,358 --> 00:25:19,958
to find it in your heart to forgive him.
700
00:25:20,027 --> 00:25:24,296
Because all he wants
is to be back at Empire
701
00:25:24,365 --> 00:25:26,331
with you and Lucious
702
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:31,203
at the company that he gave
his entire life and heart to.
703
00:25:35,843 --> 00:25:38,176
I miss him, too, Rhonda, I do.
704
00:25:40,180 --> 00:25:43,115
There's just so much stuff
that I'm handling now.
705
00:25:43,183 --> 00:25:45,217
Trust me, I'd give anything
706
00:25:45,286 --> 00:25:47,853
to be able to just hand that off to Andre.
707
00:25:52,893 --> 00:25:56,261
The reason I'm not drinking
is because I'm pregnant.
708
00:25:58,265 --> 00:26:00,599
We're having a baby.
709
00:26:01,969 --> 00:26:03,735
Are you serious?
710
00:26:03,804 --> 00:26:06,905
Yes, I'm serious.
711
00:26:06,974 --> 00:26:08,907
I mean, obviously I'm-a
talk to Lucious now.
712
00:26:08,976 --> 00:26:10,309
- Really? Really?
- Of course.
713
00:26:10,377 --> 00:26:12,644
- Uncle Jamal.
- Uncle Jamal.
714
00:26:12,713 --> 00:26:15,514
What they know about Uncle Jamal?
Sounds good, man.
715
00:26:15,583 --> 00:26:17,382
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much.
716
00:26:17,451 --> 00:26:19,051
Thank you.
717
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,054
And obviously, you
know, don't say anything.
718
00:26:22,122 --> 00:26:25,057
- Uh-uh.
- Andre would never forgive me, really, so...
719
00:26:25,125 --> 00:26:26,391
But I'm gonna handle it.
720
00:26:26,460 --> 00:26:27,392
Thank you.
721
00:26:27,461 --> 00:26:28,527
I'm so happy for y'all.
722
00:26:28,596 --> 00:26:29,928
- Thank you.
- That's so amazing.
723
00:26:38,973 --> 00:26:40,305
Lyon.
724
00:26:46,547 --> 00:26:47,746
A little something from your lawyer...
725
00:26:47,815 --> 00:26:49,815
Thirsty Rawlings.
726
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:53,785
My lawyer?
727
00:26:58,659 --> 00:27:01,259
Make a left.
728
00:27:01,328 --> 00:27:03,228
Last door.
729
00:27:03,297 --> 00:27:05,897
I know I bust you up the other day.
730
00:27:05,966 --> 00:27:07,899
I had to do that.
731
00:27:07,968 --> 00:27:11,903
You should know Thirsty got
a lot of friends in here.
732
00:27:11,972 --> 00:27:13,672
Open it up.
733
00:27:19,713 --> 00:27:22,381
Oh! You ready to smash this, brother?
734
00:27:23,784 --> 00:27:26,618
Afterburners, baby... afterburners.
735
00:27:26,687 --> 00:27:28,720
How much time we got?
736
00:27:28,789 --> 00:27:29,955
You got 65 minutes before the shift change.
737
00:27:30,024 --> 00:27:31,189
I'm locking you in,
738
00:27:31,258 --> 00:27:32,958
so nobody can get on you
for being out of bounds,
739
00:27:33,027 --> 00:27:34,926
- but you got to work fast.
- Thank you, bro.
740
00:27:34,995 --> 00:27:36,395
This is what I got... Check it out.
741
00:27:39,199 --> 00:27:40,198
Ooh, I like the police car.
742
00:27:42,536 --> 00:27:44,136

00:30:14,521 --> 00:30:16,888
I wish Clyde was here.
815
00:30:16,957 --> 00:30:18,790
Good thing I got to work early
816
00:30:18,859 --> 00:30:20,792
or you degenerates might
have got away with this trash.
817
00:30:20,861 --> 00:30:23,328
Come on, man, we just trying
to make a little music.
818
00:30:23,397 --> 00:30:24,930
You out of bounds, inmate.
819
00:30:24,998 --> 00:30:26,665
With contraband!
820
00:30:26,733 --> 00:30:27,999
Lock 'em up!
821
00:30:28,068 --> 00:30:29,000
All of 'em!
822
00:30:29,069 --> 00:30:31,002
We already locked up, brother.
823
00:30:31,071 --> 00:30:33,371
I'm not your brother, inmate.
824
00:30:39,980 --> 00:30:42,581
We was just talking about your ass.
825
00:30:42,649 --> 00:30:44,249
Is that right?
826
00:30:44,318 --> 00:30:45,650
Talk about it in the hole.
827
00:30:49,697 --> 00:30:51,563
How does it feel to be
in there now, huh?
828
00:30:51,632 --> 00:30:54,857
You rap like you some sort of tough guy.
829
00:30:54,869 --> 00:30:57,803
But in here, you just another prisoner.
830
00:30:57,872 --> 00:31:00,740
Matter of fact, I could kill you right now.
831
00:31:00,808 --> 00:31:03,743
Wouldn't be no consequences.
832
00:31:03,811 --> 00:31:06,412
Just another dead rapper.
833
00:31:06,481 --> 00:31:08,080
You sure about that, baby blue?
834
00:31:08,149 --> 00:31:09,281
Oh, I'm sure.
835
00:31:09,350 --> 00:31:11,283
'Cause, see, I'm all
about the consequences.
836
00:31:11,352 --> 00:31:14,220
I got consequences from uptown to downtown,
837
00:31:14,288 --> 00:31:16,222
from the five boroughs
to the seven continents,
838
00:31:16,290 --> 00:31:18,224
that know each and every
person in this world
839
00:31:18,292 --> 00:31:19,225
that you care about.
840
00:31:19,293 --> 00:31:20,326
You threatening me, inmate?
841
00:31:20,395 --> 00:31:21,994
Nah, no threats.
842
00:31:22,063 --> 00:31:23,295
Just stating the obvious.
843
00:31:23,364 --> 00:31:26,298
'Cause that's not a violation.
844
00:31:26,367 --> 00:31:27,833
That's a new charge.
845
00:31:27,902 --> 00:31:29,502
You gonna get hit with more years
846
00:31:29,570 --> 00:31:32,772
than all your gold and
platinum records combined.
847
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,106
Nah, that's where you're mistaken,
848
00:31:34,175 --> 00:31:35,474
'cause I'm not getting convicted.
849
00:31:35,543 --> 00:31:36,475
You know why?
850
00:31:36,544 --> 00:31:38,144
Let me guess.
851
00:31:38,212 --> 00:31:39,478
'Cause you innocent, right?
852
00:31:39,547 --> 00:31:41,113
No... since when does that matter?
853
00:31:41,182 --> 00:31:42,782
I'm not getting convicted
854
00:31:42,850 --> 00:31:45,117
because people like you
and that bitch Miss Ford,
855
00:31:45,186 --> 00:31:46,552
y'all make mistakes.
856
00:31:46,621 --> 00:31:47,620
I don't.
857
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,647
Where is it?
858
00:32:14,716 --> 00:32:15,881
Don't know what you talking about.
859
00:32:15,950 --> 00:32:17,683
The music, scumbag.
860
00:32:32,900 --> 00:32:34,500
You sure everything is on there?
861
00:32:34,569 --> 00:32:37,937
Yeah, I double-checked
before we cracked his ribs.
862
00:32:40,808 --> 00:32:43,409
All right, you two take a dance class.
863
00:32:43,478 --> 00:32:44,810
Yes, sir.
864
00:32:47,415 --> 00:32:50,583
Uh, what is it that you wanted
to talk to me about, Andre?
865
00:32:50,651 --> 00:32:52,251
Hey, Ma, I need to talk to you.
866
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,820
Save it, baby.
867
00:32:54,889 --> 00:32:57,490
I already know your father
and your brother Jamal
868
00:32:57,558 --> 00:32:59,291
are trying to get you back to Empire,
869
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,061
and I guess I got to understand.
870
00:33:02,130 --> 00:33:04,764
So you saying you want
me to go back to Empire?
871
00:33:04,832 --> 00:33:07,633
No, it's breaking my
heart, but I can't stop you.
872
00:33:07,702 --> 00:33:09,702
Taking your Rainbow Abomination with you?
873
00:33:09,771 --> 00:33:11,270
Rainbow Sensation ain't happening.
874
00:33:11,339 --> 00:33:12,872
I found three chicks I like,
875
00:33:12,940 --> 00:33:14,874
but they all Latina and feisty.
876
00:33:14,942 --> 00:33:16,242
You are aware
877
00:33:16,310 --> 00:33:17,777
that the English-speaking Latino market
878
00:33:17,845 --> 00:33:19,712
is the fastest-growing,
largest, untapped market
879
00:33:19,781 --> 00:33:21,147
in the country, right?
880
00:33:21,215 --> 00:33:22,848
An all-Latina girl group,
that could be huge, man.
881
00:33:22,917 --> 00:33:24,083
- Really?
- Yep.
882
00:33:24,152 --> 00:33:25,818
So we may have something here,
883
00:33:25,887 --> 00:33:28,420
if I can get Valentina on
our team instead of Empire.
884
00:33:28,489 --> 00:33:30,422
I thought you were going back?
885
00:33:30,491 --> 00:33:32,291
I'm not going back to Empire.
886
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,794
I'm not working for Dad or Jamal punk-ass.
887
00:33:34,862 --> 00:33:37,129
I'm gonna be hip-hop
legendary in my own right.
888
00:33:37,198 --> 00:33:38,397
So you giving up on your album?
889
00:33:38,466 --> 00:33:40,266
Did I say that?
890
00:33:40,334 --> 00:33:41,400
Check this out.
891
00:33:41,469 --> 00:33:42,902
Chicken, do it.
892
00:33:42,970 --> 00:33:45,171
Your boy is going for the crown.
893
00:33:45,239 --> 00:33:46,472
My album,
894
00:33:46,541 --> 00:33:47,807
the one Empire
895
00:33:47,875 --> 00:33:49,642
wasn't gonna drop,
896
00:33:49,710 --> 00:33:51,143
I just leaked it online.
897
00:33:51,212 --> 00:33:52,778
- Are you crazy?
- Isn't that illegal?
898
00:33:52,847 --> 00:33:54,146
I don't know and I don't care.
899
00:33:54,215 --> 00:33:55,447
You don't know and you don't care?
900
00:33:56,250 --> 00:33:58,217
- Are you stupid?
- Are you?
901
00:33:59,353 --> 00:34:01,587
Empire is gonna sue the hell out of you.
902
00:34:01,656 --> 00:34:03,289
- Uh...
- And they'd be right to.
903
00:34:03,357 --> 00:34:04,590
I don't care if they sue us.
904
00:34:04,659 --> 00:34:06,158
I don't care if I lose money from it.
905
00:34:06,227 --> 00:34:08,527
All I care about is that
my music is out to the world
906
00:34:08,596 --> 00:34:09,695
and that it's gonna be legendary.
907
00:34:09,764 --> 00:34:11,130
You right.
908
00:34:12,133 --> 00:34:13,465
That's it.
909
00:34:13,534 --> 00:34:15,267
I'm done.
910
00:34:15,336 --> 00:34:16,602
Andre!
911
00:34:16,671 --> 00:34:19,305
- I don't care.
- Andre!
912
00:34:20,341 --> 00:34:22,641
Andre!
913
00:34:22,710 --> 00:34:23,843
Andre...
914
00:34:23,911 --> 00:34:25,411
Andre!
915
00:34:27,148 --> 00:34:28,614
You worry too much.
916
00:34:28,683 --> 00:34:31,217
There is no way Jamal
gonna sue his own brother.
917
00:34:31,285 --> 00:34:33,986
No, no, you don't worry enough, Cookie.
918
00:34:35,590 --> 00:34:37,423
I'm sorry, Mom.
919
00:34:37,491 --> 00:34:41,126
Okay, it's not you, it's
not, it's not even Hakeem.
920
00:34:41,195 --> 00:34:42,494
This isn't me.
921
00:34:42,563 --> 00:34:44,196
This is a scrappy little setup.
922
00:34:44,265 --> 00:34:46,031
It's not what I've been
working for all these years.
923
00:34:46,100 --> 00:34:47,366
It's not what I want.
924
00:34:47,435 --> 00:34:50,402
My heart is not in this, Mom.
925
00:34:52,306 --> 00:34:53,405
Please...
926
00:34:53,474 --> 00:34:55,741
I need you to let me go.
927
00:34:55,810 --> 00:34:57,676
Let me go, Mom.
928
00:34:57,745 --> 00:34:59,278
No.
929
00:34:59,347 --> 00:35:00,679
- Mom...
- Andre, please.
930
00:35:00,748 --> 00:35:02,147
- I need you...
- I need you.
931
00:35:02,216 --> 00:35:03,249
Let me go, Mom.
932
00:35:03,317 --> 00:35:05,384
- Andre...
- Let me go.
933
00:35:05,453 --> 00:35:07,453
Let me go.
934
00:35:19,273 --> 00:35:21,173
This room is full of Torahs.
935
00:35:21,242 --> 00:35:23,208
I copped the building
from the Vizhnitz Dynasty.
936
00:35:23,277 --> 00:35:24,510
The Fishnets who?
937
00:35:24,578 --> 00:35:26,912
It's a Jewish thing, a Hasidic dynasty.
938
00:35:26,981 --> 00:35:28,180
You see them all over this neighborhood,
939
00:35:28,249 --> 00:35:29,648
the crazy dudes with the curlicues
940
00:35:29,717 --> 00:35:30,816
and the big black hats.
941
00:35:30,885 --> 00:35:33,018
Dynasty, hmm.
942
00:35:33,087 --> 00:35:36,054
That's a dope name.
943
00:35:36,123 --> 00:35:37,990
So are you saying this space is available?
944
00:35:38,058 --> 00:35:39,691
The whole floor?
945
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,194
Might be, if it means
getting you out of my face.
946
00:35:45,299 --> 00:35:46,965
Yeah, this could work.
947
00:35:47,034 --> 00:35:50,002
As soon as you clean
this place up, of course.
948
00:35:50,070 --> 00:35:52,471
Actually, since you'll
be the one renting it,
949
00:35:52,540 --> 00:35:54,540
that'll be your ass doing the cleaning.
950
00:35:58,479 --> 00:36:00,646
Mazel tov.
951
00:36:07,254 --> 00:36:09,488
I hear you want to come back to Empire.
952
00:36:11,692 --> 00:36:13,458
I never should've been a
part of that hostile takeover.
953
00:36:13,527 --> 00:36:16,562
I messed up big-time, Pop, and I know it.
954
00:36:16,630 --> 00:36:20,332
Hurt me to my core to watch
you take sides against me, son.
955
00:36:22,670 --> 00:36:25,304
Empire's in my blood.
956
00:36:25,372 --> 00:36:27,573
When I bleed, I bleed Empire.
957
00:36:27,641 --> 00:36:29,308
Now, I'm ask...
958
00:36:30,711 --> 00:36:32,044
I'm praying...
959
00:36:32,112 --> 00:36:34,780
that you'll forgive me, Pop.
960
00:36:34,848 --> 00:36:36,748
You still going to church?
961
00:36:36,817 --> 00:36:38,350
Yes, sir, yes, sir, every Sunday.
962
00:36:38,419 --> 00:36:39,952
- Still believe in God?
- Yes, sir.
963
00:36:40,020 --> 00:36:41,720
Good.
964
00:36:41,789 --> 00:36:43,622
Then you pray to God that He forgives you,
965
00:36:43,691 --> 00:36:44,790
'cause I don't.
966
00:36:48,629 --> 00:36:50,362
Pop, wait a minute.
967
00:36:50,431 --> 00:36:51,597
Pop!
968
00:36:51,665 --> 00:36:53,665
Pop!
969
00:36:57,571 --> 00:37:00,038
For years, you rejected
Jamal because of who he is.
970
00:37:00,107 --> 00:37:02,174
Now he's running the company.
971
00:37:02,242 --> 00:37:04,142
Hakeem, he slept with your fiancée.
972
00:37:04,211 --> 00:37:07,779
Apparently, you want him back at Empire.
973
00:37:07,848 --> 00:37:08,947
Here I stand,
974
00:37:09,016 --> 00:37:12,150
contrite, remorseful, humble.
975
00:37:13,554 --> 00:37:17,055
And yet you look at me...
976
00:37:17,124 --> 00:37:19,124
like I'm some kind of mutant.
977
00:37:22,396 --> 00:37:24,396
Why do you hate me?
978
00:37:26,634 --> 00:37:29,668
Dwight, why are you so sad, baby?
979
00:37:29,737 --> 00:37:32,037
You want me to sing you a song?
980
00:37:32,106 --> 00:37:34,339
What song do you want me to sing?
981
00:37:34,408 --> 00:37:37,075
Hmm, "Itsy Bitsy Spider"?
982
00:37:37,144 --> 00:37:39,478

I'm glad to hear you singing again.

00:39:21,482 --> 00:39:23,582
Yeah. I wrote this for you.
1007
00:39:25,185 --> 00:39:27,185
I did.
1008
00:39:28,889 --> 00:39:32,424
Come on home to Empire.
1009
00:39:32,493 --> 00:39:34,760
We'll do more stuff together.
1010
00:39:35,963 --> 00:39:37,629
That's what I miss.
1011
00:39:37,698 --> 00:39:39,631
Yeah, me, too.
1012
00:39:39,700 --> 00:39:42,100
But I ain't coming back to Empire.
1013
00:39:43,604 --> 00:39:45,270
What about your album?
1014
00:39:45,339 --> 00:39:46,538
What about it?
1015
00:39:46,607 --> 00:39:48,006
I put it out. I leaked it online.
1016
00:39:51,378 --> 00:39:52,878
Seriously?
1017
00:39:54,414 --> 00:39:56,448
So that's how we gonna roll, Hakeem?
1018
00:39:57,451 --> 00:39:58,650
Yeah?
1019
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,286
You'll never see a penny.

00:41:33,814 --> 00:41:35,914
That's why we got to hurry
up and get this thing together
1062
00:41:35,983 --> 00:41:37,215
before he gets out of jail.
1063
00:41:37,284 --> 00:41:38,850
Come on.
1064
00:41:38,919 --> 00:41:41,086
♪ You know I know it...! ♪
1065
00:41:44,124 --> 00:41:45,590
Your Honor, this is unacceptable.
1066
00:41:45,659 --> 00:41:47,726
If the defense counsel isn't present
1067
00:41:47,794 --> 00:41:49,361
at the bail hearing that he called,
1068
00:41:49,429 --> 00:41:51,229
then he's wasting our time.
1069
00:41:51,298 --> 00:41:52,797
The hell kind of lawyer
1070
00:41:52,866 --> 00:41:53,899
doesn't show up for his own hearing?
1071
00:41:55,602 --> 00:41:56,902
Let him go!
1072
00:41:58,038 --> 00:41:59,971
You let Lucious go!
1073
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:01,940
Let him go!
1074
00:42:03,777 --> 00:42:04,709
I'm here!
1075
00:42:04,778 --> 00:42:07,045
I'm here, I'm here, Your Honor.
1076
00:42:07,114 --> 00:42:08,546
I was this close to throwing
1077
00:42:08,615 --> 00:42:10,815
your client back in jail, Mr. Rawlings.
1078
00:42:10,884 --> 00:42:12,117
My docket's backed up enough as it is.
1079
00:42:12,185 --> 00:42:13,785
The court still validates, right?
1080
00:42:14,988 --> 00:42:16,254
I-I got the new evidence right here.
1081
00:42:16,323 --> 00:42:17,822
Just bring it straight up here.
1082
00:42:17,891 --> 00:42:19,691
Does counsel think he's not going to share
1083
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,559
this new evidence with the prosecutor?
1084
00:42:21,628 --> 00:42:22,661
I wouldn't think of it, Ms. Ford.
1085
00:42:22,729 --> 00:42:23,795
Thank you.
1086
00:42:34,708 --> 00:42:36,808
I think I've...
1087
00:42:36,877 --> 00:42:38,576
seen enough.
1088
00:42:38,645 --> 00:42:41,246
This court finds that Mr. Lyon
1089
00:42:41,315 --> 00:42:43,848
poses no flight risk and rules
1090
00:42:43,917 --> 00:42:45,650
- to release him on bail...
- What?!
1091
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:47,085
Your Honor, this is a travesty!
1092
00:42:48,555 --> 00:42:50,322
The people will not stand by
1093
00:42:50,390 --> 00:42:53,124
- while you...
- That is my ruling, Ms. Ford.
1094
00:42:53,193 --> 00:42:55,093
Bail is granted at one million dollars.
1095
00:42:55,162 --> 00:42:56,895
Your Honor!
1096
00:42:59,056 --> 00:43:04,502
