Previously on Empire...

You got to protect

- this angel with your life.
- I will.

You on your way to being woke.

Make some music that means something.

This is the head of the
gaming commission,

Charlotte Frost.

I did not expect this. I'm impressed.

You and Nessa are out.

Get your men together.
We're gonna take him out.

The last track on When
Cookie Met Lucious is gonna be

about our mother finding happiness.

Will you marry me?

I still have feelings for him.

I compromised the integrity

of my campaign.

For you!

They messed with the wrong clan.

They're going down.

Wait, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. DJ.

DJ, baby, right now, you're
riding this like it's a rainbow.

You got to ride these quarters

like you're the space shuttle
trying to break through

the Earth's atmosphere.

Flag on the play.

This just ain't your track, bro.

♪ Oh, oh, oh, oh. ♪

I'm sorry. Y'all, I can't,
I ain't, I'm not stupid.

I literally hate this song.

Yo, Lucious.

Man, why don't you stop playing around

and dip my boy in some
of that sauce, man,

give October some of
that heat for the street?

If this is supposed to be
the last song of the album,

it needs to be a better song.

That's because the last song on the album

is supposed to be how I broke free

from the chains of Lucious

and got me a better man.

What's wrong, baby?

Lucious, come in and
take a five, sweetheart.

I've got to finish this album

before we even think about
mounting this show in Vegas.

Everything. It's the song. And I'm not,

I'm not hearing nothing.
I'm not hearing it.

We're never gonna finish
this album on time.

Oh, well, yes, the hell we are.

Let me go dig in some crates,

see what kind of inspiration I
can come up with for this boy,

before I have to go in and choke his ass.

I'm sorry, I'm gonna take
you out on this one, Tommy.

Whatever you need. It's your track.

- I'm sorry, bro.
- No, it's all good. We'll work it out.

It's my fault, baby,

because I'm in a foul-ass mood,

'cause I'm looking in
this room and I'm seeing

a bunch of people I don't know,

eating up my damn food.

Do I know any of y'all?

If I don't know you,
you got three seconds

to get the hell out of here.

I'm not gonna say it again.

Come on, let's get the
goings going on, people.

Let's get the goings going on.

Now, you can leave that here, my friend.

- Thank you.
- Hey! Okay.

Subtitle sync and corrections by
awaqeded for www.MY-SUBS.com.

No, you, you,

you gave everything you had in there,

but it's still trying
to push the square...

Lucious, Lucious. Can I
talk to you for a second?

Hey, I'll see myself out.

- Thank you for understanding.
- Always, man.

- Much respect.
- How you doing?

All right.

So, um, did you hear?

About me and Angelo?

Yeah, you told me.

Um, congratulations,
I'm really happy for you.

No.

We broke up.

I, um, I said no.

Why?

Well, because,

I-I guess I finally realized that, um...

Lucious?

I think you need to
come and talk to Snoop.

Cookie.

What is she doing in the studio with you?

Because you said that
woman was the devil.

No, that's not what I said.

That's what you said.

Lucious...

I need you, darling.

Look, I got to go.

I'm sorry about Angelo.

You seem upset, sweetie, what's wrong?

Nah, I'm good.

Hmm.

So I'm-a be honest with you, man,

I'm a straight-up perfectionist,

like you, and I love Tommy,

but his vocals wasn't
right for this track.

But you gonna be happy
when it's all said and done,

'cause it's gonna mean

a better return on your investment, man.

That's right, and the
deal memo's being drawn up

as we speak.

Ready to sign as soon as we're done here.

I ain't said yes yet.

Hey, hold on, hold on.

Think about it. Look at it this way, man.

You know how much money
we spent in Vegas?

Black people spend billions of dollars

in their gambling,
supporting their fights,

supporting their clubs, even
supporting their strip clubs.

Am I right, Thirst?

Okay. Okay...

Little bit.

But not one time have they let us

hang one flag up in there.

Well, you know, you got
to understand this, Lou.

They don't really respect us.

They afraid of us.

And then that thing
that happened in 1996.

And on top of it all, they're racist.

Yeah, but Inferno's
gonna change all of that.

I've already laid the groundwork

with the Nevada Gaming
Commission, Snoop, we're good.

Look.

You know, be 100 with a brother, man.

What's up, dude?

All right, let me keep
it real with you, yo.

Now, you said Inferno
was gonna be for Empire

what Chronic was for Death Row, right?

A to the men, man.

I hear you Lucious,

but where's Jamal at in this equation?

I don't think it makes sense without him.

Yeah, you know Dre?

That was my dawg.

And my dawg gonna stay my dawg.

But The Chronic wouldn't
have been The Chronic

if I wasn't on it.

Now, you put it out there

that Inferno was gonna have
Empire's biggest artists.

So to me, Jamal has to be a part of it.

All due respect, baby, you
were crucial to The Chronic.

That's how crucial I am to Inferno.

I don't need no other artists.

I don't need my son, or anybody else,

to make this a hot album,
because it is what it is,

you know what I'm saying, man?

This is good business, Snoop.

I respect your business hand,

you know that.

It's not even about that.

But I just want you to
hear me out on this.

Jamal brings...

that other audience.

A different demographic.

So with him on the team,

it ain't nothing we can't do.

Look, I don't care how you spin it,

and whatever floats your boat,
but you will be on Inferno.

Or what, Dad, you gonna,
you gonna ground me?

Come on, man, I got things to do.

What, you have work to do?

At a studio, at a label

that you're under contract.
Remember that.

Oh, so that's how we gonna play this.

'Cause guess what, old
man, last time I checked,

you are not the only CEO at this company.

This ain't about me
versus your mama, man.

It's... I'm offering you an opportunity.

Look, Inferno's gonna be an album

like never before.

And that's why Snoop and October London,

and everybody wants to be a
part of it, 'cause they know

that they're gonna be a
part of making history.

Okay, but I'm not challenging that.

Make your history.

I'm-a make my own history.

Or I should say, I'm-a
try to rewrite the history

of you and your crazy-ass family.

Do Inferno.

I'm-a do When Cookie Met Lucious.

We good.

Hey, Ma.

What are you doing here?

Nessa said she was afraid you
might do something reckless.

Nessa.

Look, Andre, I know you want
to clap back at your daddy...

I don't know what you're talking about.

Boy, you must think I'm Boo Boo the Fool.

♪ You want to say... ♪

You know I'll burn this bitch down.

Move.

♪ Rap on, oh, rap on. ♪

Ma, will you hold on?

Mm-hmm.

Really, Andre?

He betrayed me one time too many.

And he better fall back. Vegas is mine.

Well, you must be off your meds,

thinking you gonna come
at your daddy like this.

Shine.

You really want to start
this kind of war with Lucious?

Well, apparently, I'm off my meds, too.

Yeah, apparently, you don't
like to breathe, stupid ass...

Shape, is that you?

I heard you died. Boy,
look at you, you look good.

- B-Raw? How's your sister?
- Hey.

Oh, she good.

- She good?
- You look good, too, Cookie.

Thank you, baby. You got all
of North Philly up in here.

Thought that was you when I walked in.

- What's up, Big Money?
- What's good.

Good to see... my God, this is great.

Okay, fellas, as you were.

Load it up.

Look.

I know that Giuliana woman
took you for a fool...

I won't be taken for a fool, Ma.

She's trash, Andre,

and your daddy is gonna
kick her to the curb...

You are underestimating her.

I don't give a damn about that bitch.

Now, I know your father can be

a piece of work,

but just give him a minute
to come to his senses,

and then we can run
Las Vegas like a family.

Like a family.

That doesn't help me
out much, now does it?

As far back as we go, Shine?

You like a distant cousin.

Come on, man.

All of y'all.

This is North Philly in the house.

- Yeah.
- That's right. Y'all are like my family.

Some old friends of mine, you know?

And to be honest, I need that right now.

Okay, so I t... I... You know what?

Y'all come over to Cookie house

and I'll cook you a comfort meal.

Y'all down for some home cooking?

I know y'all ready for a
good home-cooked meal, right?

I got you.

I got you.

All right, I'll see y'all soon.

Have your appetites ready.

♪ Baby ♪

♪ Baby you can call me... ♪

Dad, I appreciate you hearing
me out on such short notice.

It's about Bella.

What about her?

I deserve to have my name
on the birth certificate.

I'm serious.

I can tell you're serious
from the tone in your voice.

But just 'cause you serious,

that don't mean you're ready for it, son.

And having your name on
somebody's birth certificate

don't necessarily make you a parent.

I'm a parent, Dad.

I'm ready.

You know I'm ready.

Everybody out!

That's it!

Single file.

Let's go!

Come on, people,

- let's move.
- Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

Do you mind telling me
what the violation is?

Okay? Don't say overcrowded,

'cause I already got the head count.

This club's in violation
of the fire code.

Fire code?

What fire code?

We're getting smoke blown up our
asses, that's what's happening.

What...

The bar is shut down!

- Everybody out!
- Excuse me.

I don't smell no fire.

Good evening.

I didn't even see him in here.

Well, well, well.

If it isn't my brother Numpsay.

Mr. Lyon. Boys.

Hope you are enjoying yourselves, but...

please exit my club now.

Well, uh, I see you've
met the-the fire marshal.

Excuse me.

Frankie, this is Mr. Lyon.

Mr. Lyon, Frankie.

Did you not get the memo?

Frankie, you didn't give him...

I don't think he got the memo.

My apologies.

Your club is closed tonight.

I get it.

Well, in that case, sorry
to have interrupted you.

Please enjoy the brandy, Mr. Mayor.

I'm-I'm sorry.

Mr. Almost Mayor.

You should really work on your game.

This is pathetic.

Drinks on me.

Give them a round.

There go your fire, Frank.

What's this, man?

They're comin' at us.

Wait a minute, let me get this straight.

Your boy, Angelo, can
walk up inside of my club,

puffing his damn chest out,

and you want me to give
his ass a free pass?

Lucious, that's not...

No, no, you know damn well

what he did was about you.

And you know me too well, Cookie.

I can't let that go.

I do know you, Lucious, but
let's not make things worse.

Okay?

We can fix this.

Let's fix it, you and me.

Excuse me.

Um, sorry, don't mean
to interrupt, but, uh,

I'm on my way to The Peninsula.

So, I need to grab my things.

Tell me when's a good time for you to...

Why are you in a hotel?

Lucious.

Darling, I'm headed to the airport.

Um...

Let me say good-bye to
you before you leave.

Oh, and, Anika,

you know, why don't you just
move back into the house?

I mean, Giuliana's leaving

for Vegas for a while.

- She's got business there, so...
- Oh.

So, she up in the mansion already?

Right.

So, I-I'm busy.

I-I got to go.

And, um, I guess we gon' handle

this, um, Angelo stuff another time.

Somebody's not happy.

Always trying to hold me back,

saying I don't know what I'm doing.

Acting like somebody gave you

instructions on how to be a father.

All I wanted to do was just
be a father to my daughter.

My daughter.

Should I kidnap her?

- Yeah.
- Uh-huh.

Bae, I feel like you
ain't listening right now.

Keem, what do you want us to say?

The situation sucks.

You got no wins.

Just suck it up.

See, I told you he was gonna be jealous.

Listen, ain't nobody jealous.

This situation right
here is trigonometry.

Your girl got a girl,
that's two girlfriends.

So, girlfriends, can y'all come with me

to my dad's and check out Bella?

Just in case

I snap on-on Pops.

That sounds nice, Keem.

I bet. The car'll be there at 7:00.

Uh, we can't. We're going
to that party in Nyack.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, a party without your boy?

That don't sound right.

Well, it's a girls' party.

Just girls.

Oh, so, I see.

A little jealousy.

Maybe to dream me some new chick?

Fine. You're such a baby.

Y'all my babies.

Come here.

Vanilla and chocolate.

That's right, eat up, fellas.

I don't want no leftovers.

Cookie, you should've told me

you could burn like this.

Damn, somebody need to
marry this woman immediately.

You're so sweet.

Been there, did it, done that.

Yeah, this is nice and all, Mom,

but I don't see how it
solves our Vegas problem.

Here's the thing. You know that woman

your daddy's messing around with?

Yeah, Giuliana. She's dangerous.

I still think it's payback for Angelo.

Your daddy don't even realize it.

I'll give it a month

before he makes her kick rocks.

And what if he doesn't?

All right, now that we got our eat on,

let's talk about what we
came here to talk about:

- Vegas.
- Okay.

So, what's the plan?

How we gonna hit him?

Yeah, let's talk about Vegas

'cause you saw what we was on.

What you trying to do?

Put a pin in that.

Now, y'all know Lucious.

He knows how to put on a
show like nobody's business.

So, let him go up to
Vegas and set up Inferno.

Let him do all the work
and we reap the benefits.

And if your daddy ain't
got it together by then,

we'll take it from him.

'cause... I just, uh, want
to be alone, all right?

Okay.

I mean, I just need some quiet.

- Okay?
- Yeah.

Hey, what's up, Jamal?

What's up, Tinashe?

Cookie called me.

She said you were working
on something new.

How's it sound?

It sucks.

I'm sure it doesn't suck.

I'm almost 100% certain that it does.

Just play me what you got so far.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

All right.

Have you thought about maybe
filtering out the drums, maybe?

Okay, so you think it sucks, too.

No, I just think that

the hook could have more energy.

Really ain't no nice
way to say this, Lucious.

It's strictly business.

I got to protect myself.

Are you serious, man?

Damn, Snoop.

You gonna turn us down in casual wear?

He didn't even dress up for this.

I just thought you was

a little bigger than that, man.

This can happen.

Ain't about that, Lou,
'cause the music thing?

Y'all got that on lock.

Anything you touch,

it's official like a
referee with a whistle,

straight to the tippy.

But I had a conversation
with my investment banker,

and he told me, Vegas
move, it ain't me right now.

Okay, can you do this?

Introduce me to your investment banker.

- Mm-hmm.
- Let me have one conversation

and I bet you by the end of it,

he's gonna be begging
to put his money into it.

Or he's gonna move your
money into it, anyway,

tell you it was his idea
and charge you a commission.

I mean, that's what they do, Snoop.

Bingo.

I don't think so, man.
Ezekiel's a square.

And not to be disrespectful,
Lucious, but...

you gon' scare his ass off.

Okay, well, maybe I'll
make a friend with him.

I'll make my own introduction.

What's his last name?

DuBois. But I don't think he gon' listen.

DuBois?

Ain't that a little coinkydink?

Thank you.

All gravy, baby.

Well, sorry it was a little
bit of a burnt mission.

Nah, you were amazing. It's me.

- We'll get it next time.
- We will.

Wasn't you, baby, it was him.

I'm so sorry we wasted
your time, sweetheart.

Ma, I love working with her. She's dope.

It's just... I don't know.

- I'm sick of you.
- Sick of what, Ma? Look, I tried.

All right? She's amazing.

Um, let me tell you
about that word, "try."

But, Ma, you need to...

It's an excuse 'cause you
wearing my nerve out right...

- I can't take it, Ma.
- Cookie, I need to talk to you.

- Uh...
- Now!

If it ain't one thing,

it's a damn nother.

You better call that bitch
ass ex-boyfriend of yours.

- Hitting us with these code violations
- Okay, excuse me, you coming

- down here while I'm working, talking
about... - and messing with bottle service

- for one night, that's one thing.
- ...some damn club

I don't have nothing to do with

- and bottle service.
- No, no, no.

He's-he's pissing on our money tree.

How?

The investors for Inferno walked back...

You know what, I'm gonna
deal with his ass.

- No, no, no, no.
- Dad!

Okay, wait a minute.

So, shooting him is
gonna solve this, right?

- Dad, why you got a piece?
- That makes a lot of sense.

- Huh?!
- Mom, where are you going?

If you don't get your hands off of me...

Angelo. Angelo, we need to talk.

Angelo, please.

Look, I don't blame
you for hating me, okay?

You're a good man, Angelo.

I just, I just wish I was a
good enough woman to be with you.

I don't belong in your world.

You destroyed my world.

It no longer exists.

I never wanted to do that.

What if I made a public statement

saying that everything
you said on that hot mic

was just in the heat of the moment?

Is that what you think
I'm most upset about?

I'm so sorry.

When Cookie Met Lucious.

Oh, Jamal's album.

Yes. I can hold a fundraiser

and we can tie it to the public's...

When Cookie met Lucious
all those years ago,

you set a chain of events into motion

that would one day destroy generations

of hard work,

generations of preparation in my family.

My family.

No, I can fix this, but
please, let me just try.

You got to stop firing back at Lucious

because he's gonna light you up.

Don't put your hands on me!

Get off of me, bitch!

Oh, my.

Cookie, sweetheart,

you have not seen our firepower.

Now, when my family decides to shoot,

your entire family will
burn to the ground.

Come, my love.

Come.

She's not welcome here.

Talking about when her family shoot,

our family gonna burn down to the ground,

like they some damn gangsters!

Man, that bitch better ask about me.

Ma, but why even go down
there, you know what I'm saying?

What is picking a fight
with Angelo gonna accomplish?

Boy, are you not listening to me?

It ain't soft-ass Angelo
who wants to go to war,

it's his mama.

Wait.

O-Okay.

Mr. Dalai Lama, how do you
think we need to handle this?

Well, that's just it,

the DuBois are not like our family.

Damn right, they have no idea

what kind of war we bring.

And they're also not a
criminal organization.

Well, we're not one either.

Then we, a family, should
understand another family,

trying to protect one of their own.

And it's y'all fault

because y'all constantly
have to clap back.

That's what we do.

- No, it's not.
- She came for me.

I don't want to hear that.

No, if they're going low now, though,

then we can go high for once.

Oh, isn't that cute,

you learned something
from Michelle Obama.

Yes. I sure did, yeah.

Y'all, I can make peace.

Y'all just need to tell me
that I can go and talk to them.

Well, Andre,

y-you, you've lived in their world.

Do you think Jamal is right?

Ugh.

Thank you.

Okay.

If you can make peace
with them, make peace.

I've got a casino to launch
and an album to finish.

Okay, y'all not understanding this.

She has targets on all of...

Wait, where is Hakeem?

Ma, this woman ain't gonna kill nobody.

- How do you know?
- Because I know.

Hakeem is fine.

He's at home, I talked to him.

You need to chill.

No, you need to worry
about who you trustin'.

I don't trust that damn
fake-ass Clair Huxtable.

- Neither do I.
- You're too damn nice!

You should've put him in boxing classes

while I was locked up.

He too soft.

Little punk.

Ha, now listen, ladies,

beautiful ladies...

and I know you're beautiful
'cause you follow me, right?

Now, I need y'all to pick
which shirt I'm rocking tonight,

the black or the gold?

But, look, I got another option.

Now, I got this snake-skin sweater.

Now, if I wear this, I got
to wear the matching pumps.

Now, listen, I told y'all
the party was turned up

all the way to Nyack.

And this city boy is
about that city life.

But unfortunately, you know, sometimes

I like to go my own way.

But it's hard, man,

when I got this million-dollar view

I'm looking at every day.

Shout out to Daddy.

But I 100% understand wanting to
step outside your comfort zone.

You know?

Testing your limits?

Like I'm testing my limits
having an all-girl party.

And you specially invited, baby.

...mother of these young
cubs draws nearer to them.

A showdown.

Now, you know what this is?

The hyenas retreat.

This is family.

The lions have successfully

safeguarded their pride.

All right, you put your shoulders back,

look him in the eye, and you'll be okay.

Get out of here.

All right, Jamal, I have
nothing to say to you.

Look here, I just want to apologize

on behalf of my family.

Well, apologies are just words,

so, I'm sorry, that's
too little too late.

Angelo, look, man, I'm-I'm
sad and disappointed

just like you are.

I wanted this for my mom so bad.

But you got through to her.

I know you did, and
that's what scared her.

She told me, she told me when we met,

she said that we're
from different worlds.

Should've listened to her.

I guess when somebody
tells you who they are,

you need to listen.

Wait, wait, look...

We can't make up for
the damage that's done...

but let us make restitution.

This is $5 million.

Yes.

I don't need this.

I don't want this.

It's not for you.

It's for the WOKE scholarship fund.

Every single kid is gonna get a free ride

to the college of their choice.

Oh, come on, man, what, is
this so Lucious "The King" Lyon

can exploit my program,

and then spin it so that
he's the generous one?

- No, not at all.
- 'Cause, then...

The Lyon family will
stay completely anonymous.

Man, look at the check.

Please.

The scholarship is already
endowed to Diana DuBois,

so she, you, the DuBois family,

you're the only ones associated with it.

Don't you want to make something good

out of the day that you met Cookie?

Take the check.

Damn it.

I think we were really
just finding it now.

Yeah, it felt like we
were finding something,

but it's not that something
that I'm looking for, it's...

It's a closed session, Mal.

Dad, ain't nobody worried
about your wack music.

Look, we'll-we'll hook
up on the next one, man.

- Oh.
- Make something better happen.

Later, Nicky.

- Yo, we good with Angelo.
- How generous of him

to take my $5 million.

He didn't want to at first,

but talked him into
seeing the wisdom of it.

He's a crooked politician,
son, he always thinks of money.

Probably.

Yeah, you were right
about Angelo, though.

So thank you.

Yo, you and the social
media guys up on Hakeem?

What about him?

He's been live-streaming

from his apartment all day,

saying he found the meaning to life.

Is he all right?

Mm-hmm.

Says he saw a sign.

He was watching TV, saw some lions.

Like, real lions from Africa.

And it was gonna make him
a better father to Bella.

He's on right now?

Yeah.

It's really sweet, actually.

Makes me know that even if
you and mom are lost ones,

my brother?

He will come to the light.

It's the way how that mama lion

was protecting her baby lion.

The connection was just so deep, y'all.

She's ready to sacrifice her whole life

for her lion baby life.

Lion baby.

W-What's the name of that, y'all?

What, lion pups?

Nah, whatever.

Point being is that she wasn't thinking

about whose name was on
the birth certificate.

She would've ran up to 100
hyenas, like, "What's up?"

And she didn't care, she just stepped up.

Like nothing else mattered.

That moment, them two,

her family, above everybody else.

Rising above it all.

Rising.

Elevated.

Chicken, forget the party.

Come over right now,
we got some work to do.

No matter if you family
by blood or circumstances,

you prove that by elevating,

every single chance you get.

See, my pappy...

he trying to teach me

how to be a father.

He want to see if I'm gonna be a father

for the rest of my life.

And then my mom's telling me

what I should and should not do

for my baby girl, Bella.

All lessons I need to
teach you right now, baby.

'Cause one day,

you're gonna be doing
your own thing, without me.

But right now, you need me, little girl.

And I need you, too.

So, Bella, I'm giving you my life.

Because being your daddy
makes me a better me,

makes me a better man.

Doesn't matter whose name
is on that birth certificate.

You mine.

I love you.

Be careful what you

Ma, seriously, though.

With the you and Angelo thing,

and the Inferno in Vegas,

and Andre... whatever,
it's-it's too much.

What are we even doing?

I need you to grow up;
life happens, okay?

And, right now,

get your head back in the game,

and deliver these two songs.

'Cause what we do know is
that When Cookie Met Lucious

has to beat Inferno, right?

Get your head back in the game, boy.

Find what you're looking for

and finish the damn song,

or you will be singing
backup for your father.

Becky, who is that?

It's dope, right?

Scorching.

Uh, I'll be right back.

Um...

- Jamal.
- Yeah?

Come here. Come here, boy.

I need you to hear something, come on.

Where were we going?

Just shut up and come on.

Where we going?

What is that?

That's dope, that's exactly
what I'm looking for.

Becky, who made that beat? I want it.

Actually...

...yeah, no, they already in there.

Just hop right into the booth, all right?

Y'all need something?

Is it his?

- You know it is.
- Never mind.

- Come on, boy.
- Sorry.

All right, Harry, just
riff off of this, all right?

Yeah, you're right around the pocket.

Why don't you try it
with this bass on it?

Hey, hit him with that bass, baby.

You are a dirty, rotten buzzard.

Did you hear that? I mean,

your melody with my arrangement.

That's what's beautiful.

Yeah. It was, uh...

It's kind of cool.

Uh, what's going on in here?

Whoo, that's it, Jamal.

Hold on, hold on. I just heard something.

I mean, regardless of what
the DuBois tried to do,

all their shenanigans,

Snoop is still down to invest in Inferno,

as long as Big J is on it.

Okay, great. It'll be on both albums.

And we will also be on that
stage with you in Vegas.

It'll be Inferno and

When Cookie Met Lucious.

Nah, that's not gonna work for Giuliana.

I don't give a damn what's
gonna work for that woman.

Okay, well, what about what I want?

Is that a... is that a thing?

Jamal, I was making a deal for us.

But boy, what do you want?

I want for the Lyon
family to work together.

Is this a Kumbaya moment?

Okay, you know what? I'm sorry.

We've been down this path before,

and y'all can clown me all
you want, but it's real.

Dad, you could make a conscious effort

to be a better man, to lead
your family the right way.

Mom,

we could put the past in the past

and just make good music.

Look, in view of the...
kismet, fortuitous,

whatever you want to call
it that just happened...

...I'm down.

All right, Dad.

You know you're shaking
hands with the devil.

I believe him.

You know you do, too.

I'll be right here to pick up

the pieces of your heart
when he shatters it.

- You the one breaking hearts.
- Shut up!

I heard something.

What if I tried it with this melody?

It's nasty.

It's not. Try it.

Hey yo, brother.

Jamal, give your brother
one of those snails.

- Let him try.
- ...nobody gonna eat that dirt

but you, devil, 'cause you live in it.

He ain't developed no taste buds

for nothing like that.

Thirsty, will you stop
flirting with my mama?

All right, all right, all right,

all right, y'all, listen.

Um, as, um, a pride of Lyons go,

we are pretty blessed.

I mean, Tariq and the Feds are
completely out of our lives,

thanks to Anika.

And the DuBois family seems
to be neatly tucked away,

thanks to Jamal's cleverness.

Inferno is a go in Vegas, thanks to...

Also thanks to Jamal.

- Oh, okay.
- Mm-hmm.

With that said, I think

Anika deserves her independence.

Open it.

Divorce papers?

Thank you, Jesus.

Mama...

What?

Will you be nice, please?

If you read on, um,

it's a $25 million settlement agreement.

That is, of course,

if you're not planning on contesting it.

That's more than you ever offered me.

I gave you half of my company.

No, I worked my ass off for my half.

Well, I'm sorry if that's not enough

for your greedy little ass.

I got something for your... Ooh.

I understand that you and Lucious are

working on a song together, Jamal.

Oh, yeah, and that song is the reason

why your daddy is set up in Vegas.

Mm-hmm.

That's okay, Andre.

All we have to do is step up

- our efforts on the business.
- Thank you.

Can you feel me?

- Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm.

I also have something for my youngest.

That little podcast
you did the other day...

it moved me.

You mean my live stream?

Whatever, um...

It let me know that you have reached

a level of maturity.

So we're gonna give you back

your XStream channel.

Cool.

You are just like your mama.

What you mean by that?

Nothing. Uh, Thirst...

There you go.

Turn it over, boy.

The state of New York seems to
have found your real parents.

Don't laugh at him.

Is this real?

Very real.

You deserve to have your name

on your daughter's birth certificate.

Thanks, Dad.

Proud of you.

Mr. Lyon,

there's someone at the gate.

I don't care, I'm eating lunch.

Sir, I think you should come.

Excuse me.

Are y'all finished eating
these worms and these snails?

Grass? Can you tell Juanita

bring some more wine and
peach cobbler, please?

Juanita, get her something.

Hold on, hold on, what...

Who are you, and why are you in my house?

Sir, I'm from OCSF New York.

Child Protective Services.

I don't give a damn where you're from,

I didn't invite you. Juanita, how...

- Get the hell out of my house.
- Sir,

we have received reports
of child endangerment

at this residence.

I have an order to temporarily

remove the child until an inves...

I don't care what you got.

You don't have the right

to be in my house.

- Sir, I have an order...
- We can have the conversation outside.

- Get out of my house!
- Move in!

Dad!

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!

Get out of my way!

You ain't taking nothing!

Stop, stop, stop, stop.

- Hands on your head.
- Don't touch my son!

Stop. Stop.

I'm not gonna tell you
again. Back the hell up now.

Cookie, get the baby.

We'll take care of this in court.

You see all these cameras? We gonna have

every one of y'all asses fired!

Shame on you.

It's all right. It's okay.

You're just gonna go
away for a little bit..

You're gonna take a nice little ride.

Just for a minute.

You think I don't know who's behind this?

It's the DuBois. You work for 'em?

No, sir.

- Shame on you.
- It's okay, baby,

- we'll get you back.
- It's all right.

Give her to me now, sir.

- We really don't want a problem here.
- It's all right, it's okay.

Say good-bye to your pension, lady.

We're coming out now.
We're good. Over and out.

Roger that.
