00:00:18,419 --> 00:00:19,887
-Previously on Empire...
-CONWAY: Let your
adoring fans know that
9
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,722

-Oh, my God!
-Thank God!
11
00:00:23,757 --> 00:00:26,327
I'm out $250K,
and I want it right now.
12
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,096
I can sell it in a couple days
and get you your money.
13
00:00:28,129 --> 00:00:29,597
Nah. Kinda like it.
14
00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:31,599
You were there for me
when I needed, but this is over.
15
00:00:31,632 --> 00:00:34,602
I would like
to properly introduce Kingsley.
16
00:00:34,635 --> 00:00:36,170
Look, all y'all know
that we're getting married.
17
00:00:36,204 --> 00:00:37,871
But we want to get married
as soon as possible.
18
00:00:37,905 --> 00:00:40,741
Let's toast to Jamal and Kai!
19
00:00:40,774 --> 00:00:43,244
* It's all right,
now we'll never look back... *
20
00:00:43,277 --> 00:00:45,879
STACEY:
What's the secret
to the success of your marriage?
21
00:00:45,913 --> 00:00:47,881
COOKIE:
I thought The New York Times
was profiling
22
00:00:47,915 --> 00:00:49,917
Jamal's wedding.
23
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:52,353
And what does that have to do
with our marriage?
24
00:00:52,386 --> 00:00:56,590
Jamal said that your marriage is
the epitome of everlasting love.
25
00:00:56,624 --> 00:00:59,059
Well, Jamal's right.
26
00:00:59,093 --> 00:01:01,962
I mean, our marriage
is the emotional bedrock
27
00:01:01,995 --> 00:01:03,931
of this family.
28
00:01:03,964 --> 00:01:06,800
STACEY:
What does love mean to you?
29
00:01:06,834 --> 00:01:10,204
See, love is about respect.
30
00:01:10,238 --> 00:01:13,607
Actually, love is
what unites my family.
31
00:01:13,641 --> 00:01:17,245
Love for my music,
for my brothers.
32
00:01:17,278 --> 00:01:20,314
Love for my children.
33
00:01:20,348 --> 00:01:23,117
Love never dies.
34
00:01:23,151 --> 00:01:26,254
Even when a loved one passes on,
their memory, their presence,
35
00:01:26,287 --> 00:01:28,422
we carry it with us.
36
00:01:28,456 --> 00:01:30,491
Whether we're aware of it
or not.
37
00:01:30,524 --> 00:01:34,628
Uh, we are the sum
of all the love in our lives.
38
00:01:34,662 --> 00:01:38,766
Oh, man. What do I love most
about Jamal Lyon?
39
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:40,668
Well, I don't know
if you can print this, but...
40
00:01:40,701 --> 00:01:42,670
-Okay, see, no, stop. Come on.
-(chuckles)
41
00:01:42,703 --> 00:01:44,104
-But you know exactly what...
-Stop.
42
00:01:44,138 --> 00:01:45,506
(both laugh)
43
00:01:45,539 --> 00:01:49,510
We have a very real opportunity
to inspire the next generation,
44
00:01:49,543 --> 00:01:51,345
-so don't be messy.
-Okay.
45
00:01:51,379 --> 00:01:53,781
What would you like to say
to the next generation?
46
00:01:53,814 --> 00:01:55,916
Specifically, the...
47
00:01:55,949 --> 00:01:58,319
eight-year-old black boy
living in rural Missouri
48
00:01:58,352 --> 00:02:01,088
whose father beats him
for wearing a dress.
49
00:02:01,121 --> 00:02:04,658
(laughter)
50
00:02:04,692 --> 00:02:07,094
-Walking in here
looking like a little bitch.
-JAMAL: Okay!
51
00:02:07,127 --> 00:02:08,796
Please don't make me...
52
00:02:08,829 --> 00:02:11,799
STACEY:
What would you like
to say to him?
53
00:02:11,832 --> 00:02:14,502
(chuckles softly)
54
00:02:14,535 --> 00:02:17,638
That he's loved.
55
00:02:17,671 --> 00:02:20,140
And he should be patient
with himself.
56
00:02:20,174 --> 00:02:21,875
And his father.
57
00:02:21,909 --> 00:02:24,712
My father's issues
with my sexuality is no secret.
58
00:02:24,745 --> 00:02:26,780
But, uh, the way I see it is
(chuckles)
59
00:02:26,814 --> 00:02:28,482
if the King of Hip-Hop
can change,
60
00:02:28,516 --> 00:02:31,185
then there's hope
for all fathers,
61
00:02:31,219 --> 00:02:32,620
for every son.
62
00:02:32,653 --> 00:02:34,488
One last thing.
63
00:02:34,522 --> 00:02:39,627
I received an anonymous e-mail
claiming that the wedding's off.
64
00:02:39,660 --> 00:02:42,196
That's ridiculous. Like, why the
hell would the wedding be off?
65
00:02:42,230 --> 00:02:43,897
The e-mail accuses Kai
66
00:02:43,931 --> 00:02:46,800
of hiding
his HIV-positive status from you
67
00:02:46,834 --> 00:02:49,403
and that you've been trying
to find a way
68
00:02:49,437 --> 00:02:51,739
to cancel the wedding
because of it.
69
00:02:51,772 --> 00:02:54,242
Well, that's ridiculous.
That's absolutely not true.
70
00:02:54,275 --> 00:02:56,076
I've-I've always been
totally honest with Jamal.
71
00:02:56,109 --> 00:02:58,212
Do you have an official
statement for the record?
72
00:03:07,521 --> 00:03:09,990
Hell are we supposed to do now?
73
00:03:10,023 --> 00:03:11,992
Whoever sent that e-mail
to Stacey
74
00:03:12,025 --> 00:03:13,494
could've sent it anywhere.
75
00:03:13,527 --> 00:03:15,229
I mean, what if someone else
is already running the story?
76
00:03:15,263 --> 00:03:16,564
All right, well, then maybe
we need to get ahead of it,
77
00:03:16,597 --> 00:03:17,865
make our own statement.
78
00:03:17,898 --> 00:03:20,668
But then the whole conversation
becomes about me and my status,
79
00:03:20,701 --> 00:03:22,570
-which is nobody's business.
-Right, but if
80
00:03:22,603 --> 00:03:24,338
someone does put it out there,
then that's all
81
00:03:24,372 --> 00:03:25,673
everybody's gonna be
talking about anyway.
82
00:03:25,706 --> 00:03:27,741
Everybody, like,
uh, your parents?
83
00:03:27,775 --> 00:03:29,076
Are you worried about
what they'll think
84
00:03:29,109 --> 00:03:30,711
this'll be for your career
and for-for Empire?
85
00:03:30,744 --> 00:03:32,713
Babe, you know I don't care
about stuff like that.
86
00:03:32,746 --> 00:03:34,515
I-I'm simply saying that
we should control the narrative.
87
00:03:34,548 --> 00:03:36,750
You mean control my narrative.
88
00:03:36,784 --> 00:03:38,619
(sighs)
89
00:03:38,652 --> 00:03:41,289
Baby, I just don't want this to
derail our wedding. That's it.
90
00:03:41,322 --> 00:03:43,391
All right, look, we can't argue
about this right now.
91
00:03:43,424 --> 00:03:46,494
All right?
We're late for dinner. Come on.
92
00:03:54,134 --> 00:03:57,204
God, Mom,
everything just looks amazing.
93
00:03:57,237 --> 00:03:59,139
-Thank you. (chuckles)
-Mm, you think so?
94
00:03:59,172 --> 00:04:00,974
-You don't think I overdid it?
-Nah.
95
00:04:01,008 --> 00:04:02,776
I mean, you are my first
96
00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:05,112
that I will get to see
get married,
97
00:04:05,145 --> 00:04:06,447
so everything has to be perfect.
98
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,815
-It is perfect.
-(chuckles)
99
00:04:07,848 --> 00:04:10,117
You ever think
you'd even see this day?
100
00:04:10,150 --> 00:04:12,386
I thought you'd be
down on marriage,
101
00:04:12,420 --> 00:04:15,122
because of all of the things
me and your daddy been through.
102
00:04:15,155 --> 00:04:16,657
I mean, I wasn't always
rooting for y'all.
103
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:18,959
-(laughing)
-But... (chuckles)
104
00:04:18,992 --> 00:04:20,961
But, I don't know,
I mean, it's like...
105
00:04:20,994 --> 00:04:23,431
God, now, y'all just right,
you know?
106
00:04:23,464 --> 00:04:25,633
Like nothing in the world
could tear you apart.
107
00:04:25,666 --> 00:04:28,402
-Mm.
-And that's what I want
for me and Kai.
108
00:04:28,436 --> 00:04:30,103
Hey. Mal.
109
00:04:30,137 --> 00:04:32,973
-You better get your ass
out here, man.
-(laughing)
110
00:04:33,006 --> 00:04:35,309
Caterers tearing up
my damn house.
111
00:04:35,343 --> 00:04:37,244
-I don't even know
half of them people.
-(chuckles)
112
00:04:37,277 --> 00:04:39,079
Thanks for everything, Dad.
I know it's
113
00:04:39,112 --> 00:04:41,081
a pain in the ass having all
these reporters in your face.
114
00:04:41,114 --> 00:04:42,750
-You're welcome.
-(chuckles)
115
00:04:42,783 --> 00:04:44,585
(grunts)
These look good.
116
00:04:44,618 --> 00:04:46,987
-Mm-hmm. That's all.
Just-just a couple.
-Um...
117
00:04:47,020 --> 00:04:48,822
I know that we rehearsed,
118
00:04:48,856 --> 00:04:50,658
you know,
the aisle walk with me and Mom.
119
00:04:50,691 --> 00:04:52,460
But I was thinking
it'd be cool if...
120
00:04:52,493 --> 00:04:55,195
all three of us walked together,
you know, united.
121
00:04:55,228 --> 00:04:56,764
LUCIOUS:
Wait, wait.
122
00:04:56,797 --> 00:04:59,099
Is this something
that that reporter suggested?
123
00:04:59,132 --> 00:05:01,335
No.want this.
124
00:05:01,369 --> 00:05:03,337
It's important to me.
125
00:05:03,371 --> 00:05:05,506
Yeah, but the--
Walking down the aisle
126
00:05:05,539 --> 00:05:07,274
is what the father does
with the bride.
127
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:09,042
I mean, that's the tradition.
128
00:05:09,076 --> 00:05:11,011
Y'all don't care about
tradition, or at least you said
129
00:05:11,044 --> 00:05:13,381
-you don't care
about the tradition.
-I-I don't.
130
00:05:13,414 --> 00:05:15,282
So this shouldn't matter, then.
131
00:05:15,315 --> 00:05:17,284
JAMAL:
But it does matter.
132
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:19,453
It matters to me.
I want you by my side.
133
00:05:19,487 --> 00:05:21,855
Look, I-I just don't want
to be paraded around
134
00:05:21,889 --> 00:05:24,124
like I'm part
of somebody's agenda or nothing.
135
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:25,793
-That's all.
-Uh... Lucious.
136
00:05:25,826 --> 00:05:28,496
That's what you think this is?
137
00:05:28,529 --> 00:05:30,398
LUCIOUS: I don't know.
I done did more interviews
138
00:05:30,431 --> 00:05:33,166
and photo shoots that people--
I don't even care to do.
139
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,503
Yeah.
140
00:05:35,536 --> 00:05:37,505
No, seriously, Mal,
can't that be enough?
141
00:05:37,538 --> 00:05:39,239
Yeah, that's enough, Dad.
You did a lot. Thank you.
142
00:05:42,009 --> 00:05:44,378
You're a jackass.
143
00:05:48,348 --> 00:05:51,051
-(cork pops)
-(piano playing jazz music)
144
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:54,087
(quiet chatter)
145
00:05:54,121 --> 00:05:55,889
Mm-mm.
146
00:05:55,923 --> 00:05:58,191
(laughing, muttering)
147
00:05:58,225 --> 00:05:59,827
So, your always-reporting son
148
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:01,829
tells me you're not a fan
of my music.
149
00:06:01,862 --> 00:06:03,230
Oh, well, I wouldn't say that.
150
00:06:03,263 --> 00:06:04,665
One of my students cited
151
00:06:04,698 --> 00:06:07,267
"What the DJ Spins"
in his dissertation.
152
00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:09,837
You know how to put the listener
153
00:06:09,870 --> 00:06:10,904
right there
in the Philly streets.
154
00:06:10,938 --> 00:06:12,440
Okay. I'm just messing with you.
155
00:06:12,473 --> 00:06:14,875
-I like you, man.
-(laughter)
156
00:06:14,908 --> 00:06:16,276
-That's where he gets
that strength.
-Cheers.
157
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:17,745
JAMAL:
How you think they're doing?
158
00:06:17,778 --> 00:06:19,513
Our parents know
how to behave themselves.
159
00:06:19,547 --> 00:06:21,214
-Yeah.
-(chuckles)
160
00:06:21,248 --> 00:06:25,619
Did, uh, Lucious say
he'd walk you down the aisle?
161
00:06:25,653 --> 00:06:29,189
This whole, like, wedding stuff
is just so much for him.
162
00:06:29,222 --> 00:06:30,591
Don't make excuses for him.
163
00:06:30,624 --> 00:06:32,926
Let's get champagne.
164
00:06:34,094 --> 00:06:35,629
Excuse me.
165
00:06:35,663 --> 00:06:37,698
Oh, Keem,
we're about to head out.
166
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,634
I want the kids to get some rest
and be fresh for tomorrow.
167
00:06:40,668 --> 00:06:42,470
What time should I be
at your crib tomorrow?
168
00:06:42,503 --> 00:06:43,904
Oh. We're gonna ride with Devon,
169
00:06:43,937 --> 00:06:46,373
so I'll just meet you
at the church.
170
00:06:46,406 --> 00:06:47,775
What you mean, Devon?
171
00:06:47,808 --> 00:06:49,409
Y'all together?
172
00:06:49,443 --> 00:06:51,712
We're getting to know
each other.
173
00:06:51,745 --> 00:06:52,980
Is that a problem?
174
00:06:53,013 --> 00:06:54,715
(chuckles)
No.
175
00:06:54,748 --> 00:06:56,750
Great. Have you seen Bella?
176
00:06:56,784 --> 00:06:58,686
She in the room with Dre.
177
00:07:02,355 --> 00:07:04,057
Devon, huh?
178
00:07:04,091 --> 00:07:06,494
(scoffs softly)
179
00:07:06,527 --> 00:07:08,328
Game on.
180
00:07:08,361 --> 00:07:10,631
-TERI: And who's this?
-Her name is Piggy.
181
00:07:10,664 --> 00:07:12,065
She thinks you're pretty,
Auntie Teri.
182
00:07:12,099 --> 00:07:14,101
-Aw. Thank you, Piggy.
-Aw.
183
00:07:14,134 --> 00:07:16,670
That is very sweet.
184
00:07:16,704 --> 00:07:18,906
Andre, baby, you need to eat.
185
00:07:18,939 --> 00:07:20,107
I already ate, Ma.
186
00:07:20,140 --> 00:07:21,609
I know,
but I didn't see you, okay?
187
00:07:21,642 --> 00:07:23,243
-So go ahead on and eat this.
-No, no, no.
188
00:07:23,276 --> 00:07:24,945
-All right? Go ahead.
-Don't force-feed him.
189
00:07:24,978 --> 00:07:26,279
-Go ahead. You need to eat.
-Look, baby, you ain't got
190
00:07:26,313 --> 00:07:27,915
-to stuff food
down that boy's throat.
-(sighs)
191
00:07:27,948 --> 00:07:29,917
I mean, he's fine.
192
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:33,086
Is Bella okay?
Is she giving y'all any trouble?
193
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,688
-Oh, no. No, no.
-No, no, no.
194
00:07:34,722 --> 00:07:38,492
She-she reminds me of my Quincy
when he was her age.
195
00:07:38,526 --> 00:07:40,994
You know, it's never too late
to start some new memories.
196
00:07:41,028 --> 00:07:42,162
ANDRE:
Ma.
197
00:07:42,195 --> 00:07:43,196
COOKIE:
Mm.
198
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:46,133
No, it's all good. Um...
199
00:07:46,166 --> 00:07:48,869
Andre and I are taking things
one step at a time.
200
00:07:48,902 --> 00:07:50,871
COOKIE:
Oh. Well, you can
201
00:07:50,904 --> 00:07:53,040
feel free to step right on over
to the altar
202
00:07:53,073 --> 00:07:54,875
-anytime soon. (giggles)
-LUCIOUS: Okay, you are
203
00:07:54,908 --> 00:07:56,376
-officially cut off.
-What?
204
00:07:56,409 --> 00:07:58,378
-Andre, eat your food.
-Yes, ma'am.
205
00:07:58,411 --> 00:08:00,213
Give me my drink back.
206
00:08:00,247 --> 00:08:02,049
-I am so sorry.
-Oh.
207
00:08:02,082 --> 00:08:03,216
-It's fine.
-It's embarrassing.
208
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:04,652
(chuckles):
No.
209
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,122
No, no, just get it done.
210
00:08:09,156 --> 00:08:11,992
-Yeah. I'll call you back.
-(clears throat)
211
00:08:12,025 --> 00:08:14,995
Hey. Look, I hate
to talk business,
212
00:08:15,028 --> 00:08:17,330
but the blogs are smelling
blood in the water.
213
00:08:17,364 --> 00:08:19,733
We can't keep using this wedding
to cover up
214
00:08:19,767 --> 00:08:21,969
for the fact
that our tour is stalled.
215
00:08:22,002 --> 00:08:23,737
We need to make a statement.
216
00:08:23,771 --> 00:08:26,506
Yeah, well,
I'm already on top of that.
217
00:08:30,210 --> 00:08:32,412
Jamal, before I, uh...
before I forget,
218
00:08:32,445 --> 00:08:34,381
I didn't have time
to get a gift.
219
00:08:34,414 --> 00:08:37,785
But, um...
here's a little something.
220
00:08:40,888 --> 00:08:42,590
LUCIOUS:
Wait a minute.
221
00:08:42,623 --> 00:08:45,258
That's my father's
cuff links, Jamal.
222
00:08:45,292 --> 00:08:47,761
You never let those
out of your sight, Dre.
223
00:08:47,795 --> 00:08:49,162
COOKIE:
Well, that's something old,
something new,
224
00:08:49,196 --> 00:08:50,898
something borrowed,
something blue.
225
00:08:50,931 --> 00:08:52,933
-That's everything. Bam.
-(Jamal chuckles)
226
00:08:52,966 --> 00:08:54,768
Dre, I don't know what to say.
227
00:08:54,802 --> 00:08:56,870
Cherish them as much as I did.
228
00:08:56,904 --> 00:08:58,105
-(doorbell rings)
-Thank you.
229
00:08:58,138 --> 00:09:01,341
-COOKIE: That's sweet. Mm.
-(chuckling)
230
00:09:01,374 --> 00:09:03,176
Mm, you all right over there?
231
00:09:03,210 --> 00:09:05,078
-Nah, you need
some water though.
-(laughs)
232
00:09:05,112 --> 00:09:08,148
Excuse me.
A Mr. Damon Cross to see you.
233
00:09:11,719 --> 00:09:12,753
Apologies for the intrusion,
234
00:09:12,786 --> 00:09:14,588
but I have something
that belongs to you.
235
00:09:14,622 --> 00:09:16,023
My art broker found this.
236
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:17,925
(door closes)
237
00:09:17,958 --> 00:09:19,392
LUCIOUS:
My broker said
238
00:09:19,426 --> 00:09:21,128
it was nowhere to be found.
239
00:09:21,161 --> 00:09:22,562
I just wanted to return it
to its rightful home.
240
00:09:22,596 --> 00:09:24,197
Lucious and Cookie,
they deserve
241
00:09:24,231 --> 00:09:27,267
this symbol
of their enduring love.
242
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:28,869
JAMAL:
That's crazy.
243
00:09:28,902 --> 00:09:30,604
Huh, Mom?
Dad, that's-that's amazing.
244
00:09:30,638 --> 00:09:33,607
-Yeah. It's something.
-And speaking of love,
245
00:09:33,641 --> 00:09:35,408
Jamal, I-I think it's great
that, you know, you're putting
246
00:09:35,442 --> 00:09:37,144
your wedding out there
in front of the whole world
247
00:09:37,177 --> 00:09:39,412
for them to see it,
and that's what it's all about.
248
00:09:39,446 --> 00:09:40,881
When you find
that special person, you know,
249
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:42,415
you shouldn't be all shy
about it.
250
00:09:42,449 --> 00:09:44,952
I appreciate that, man.
Thank you.
251
00:09:44,985 --> 00:09:47,220
This is late notice,
but what you doing tomorrow?
252
00:09:47,254 --> 00:09:48,789
You should just come
to the wedding.
253
00:09:48,822 --> 00:09:50,724
-Oh, man...
-LUCIOUS: No, I'm sure Mr. Cross
254
00:09:50,758 --> 00:09:53,326
-got other plans.
-Yeah, and the seating chart
is cut off.
255
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,062
-It's too many people.
-I can-- We ain't
bringing nobody. Just...
256
00:09:55,095 --> 00:09:56,596
-It's too many people.
-DAMON: I'd be honored.
257
00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:57,931
Thank you.
258
00:09:59,166 --> 00:10:00,901
I'll see you all tomorrow.
259
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:02,102
All right.
260
00:10:02,135 --> 00:10:03,203
DAMON:
We're good to go.
261
00:10:11,979 --> 00:10:14,447
* There is trouble
in paradise today, girl *
262
00:10:14,481 --> 00:10:16,249
-* A little secret *
-(crowd cheering)
263
00:10:16,283 --> 00:10:19,286
* Is all over the town *
264
00:10:19,319 --> 00:10:22,322
* I know I promised
to see you tonight, girl *
265
00:10:22,355 --> 00:10:23,657
* There's something strange... *
266
00:10:23,691 --> 00:10:24,858
Wait, look, look, look.
Look at the brother.
267
00:10:24,892 --> 00:10:27,427
-Look at the brother.
-(laughter)
268
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:29,529
* I think she knows... *
269
00:10:29,562 --> 00:10:31,832
The hell is Mark Zuckerblack
doing here?
270
00:10:31,865 --> 00:10:33,200
I invited him.
271
00:10:33,233 --> 00:10:35,202
Life's too short
to fight with family,
272
00:10:35,235 --> 00:10:36,636
and that's what Kingsley is.
273
00:10:36,670 --> 00:10:38,005
Oh, he is?
274
00:10:38,038 --> 00:10:40,207
Congratulations, Jamal.
275
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:44,111
You bring your microphone?
276
00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:46,513
I know how you love
to ruin Lyon family events.
277
00:10:46,546 --> 00:10:48,381
No big announcements tonight.
278
00:10:48,415 --> 00:10:51,051
All right, well,
sit your black ass over there.
279
00:10:51,084 --> 00:10:53,620
'Cause we got surprises.
We got surprises, baby!
280
00:10:53,653 --> 00:10:54,788
-JAMAL: Chill out!
-We got surprises!
281
00:10:54,822 --> 00:10:56,289
* Someone like you... *
282
00:10:56,323 --> 00:10:59,326
BECKY:
Here she comes. Yes!
283
00:10:59,359 --> 00:11:01,228
* Said I've always wanted... *
284
00:11:01,261 --> 00:11:03,496
-Here she come. Here they come.
-* Baby *
285
00:11:03,530 --> 00:11:06,333
* And I always needed *
286
00:11:06,366 --> 00:11:07,801
* Baby *
287
00:11:07,835 --> 00:11:09,669
We got surprises for you.
288
00:11:09,703 --> 00:11:12,072
-Look out, now.
-* Someone like you *
289
00:11:12,105 --> 00:11:14,207
-Oh, hell no!
-(laughs)
290
00:11:14,241 --> 00:11:15,876
She gonna end up with syphilis.
291
00:11:15,909 --> 00:11:18,011
(Becky laughs)
292
00:11:18,045 --> 00:11:19,579
-ANDRE: You're up, Mal. (laughs)
-JAMAL: What the hell is this?
293
00:11:19,612 --> 00:11:21,749
-Man, come on.
-Get him up. (laughs)
294
00:11:21,782 --> 00:11:22,983
-Come on.
-What is this?
295
00:11:23,016 --> 00:11:24,217
Come on, man.
296
00:11:24,251 --> 00:11:25,886
Y'all better all
get rid of your phones.
297
00:11:25,919 --> 00:11:27,154
I'm dead-ass serious.
298
00:11:27,187 --> 00:11:28,388
BECKY:
What happens in Laviticus
299
00:11:28,421 --> 00:11:30,758
-will stay in Laviticus.
-(Andre laughs)
300
00:11:30,791 --> 00:11:34,394
Uh-uh. He better get his ass
off my palm!
301
00:11:34,427 --> 00:11:35,763
-Uh-uh. Uh-uh.
-BECKY: Let it happen!
302
00:11:35,796 --> 00:11:37,664
Like I'm-a let it happen.
Hello. Hello.
303
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:38,832
-MAN: All right. All right.
-Becky!
304
00:11:38,866 --> 00:11:40,433
(man whooping)
305
00:11:40,467 --> 00:11:43,536
-Enjoy it.
-No. Stop!
306
00:11:43,570 --> 00:11:45,906
-BECKY: He likes you, Mal!
-Stop it!
307
00:11:45,939 --> 00:11:47,374
I'm serious. Hey.
308
00:11:47,407 --> 00:11:49,777
(laughter)
309
00:11:49,810 --> 00:11:51,544
-BECKY: Get it, Jamal!
-ANDRE: Don't fight it.
310
00:11:51,578 --> 00:11:53,080
What if my husband
sees this, huh?!
311
00:11:53,113 --> 00:11:54,514
I do not want this!
312
00:11:54,547 --> 00:11:57,350
So what?
Me grinding up on you like this?
313
00:11:57,384 --> 00:11:58,786
* Someone like you... *
314
00:11:58,819 --> 00:12:00,720
I know that voice.
315
00:12:00,754 --> 00:12:02,722
BECKY:
Got you, bitch!
316
00:12:02,756 --> 00:12:05,192
-That is your husband!
-(laughter)
317
00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:07,494
* Someone like you. *
318
00:12:11,164 --> 00:12:13,466
We need better security in here.
319
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:15,969
What you have there
is an injunction
320
00:12:16,003 --> 00:12:17,604
ordering you to call off
your little minions
321
00:12:17,637 --> 00:12:20,073
and allow the Empire Trust Tour
to continue.
322
00:12:20,107 --> 00:12:22,876
-And how did you get that?
-Remember my girlfriend, Vera?
323
00:12:22,910 --> 00:12:24,711
She used to work
for the D.A.'s office.
324
00:12:24,744 --> 00:12:26,146
And she told me about
a certain district judge
325
00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:27,815
that likes to take pictures
of his junk
326
00:12:27,848 --> 00:12:29,416
and send it to young girls.
327
00:12:29,449 --> 00:12:31,785
So you blackmailed him?
328
00:12:31,819 --> 00:12:33,586
Oh, I-- no,
I prefer white-maled him.
329
00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:35,755
Anyhoo, since you never found
any evidence
330
00:12:35,789 --> 00:12:37,424
to Empire's drug trafficking,
331
00:12:37,457 --> 00:12:39,092
the judge is ordering you
to return
332
00:12:39,126 --> 00:12:41,895
all property seized from Empire
within 48 hours.
333
00:12:41,929 --> 00:12:43,230
You have a nice day.
334
00:12:43,263 --> 00:12:45,799
And, look,
about the decor-- sucks.
335
00:12:50,037 --> 00:12:52,639
-* Diamonds on me dancing
look like water... *
-(Jamal and Kai laughing)
336
00:12:52,672 --> 00:12:54,774
JAMAL:
Wasn't nobody thinking about
no damn wedding stress.
337
00:12:54,808 --> 00:12:57,177
You took my mind
off all the stupid stuff
338
00:12:57,210 --> 00:12:58,846
with your chocolate dynamite.
339
00:12:58,879 --> 00:13:02,015
-Mm, mm, mm.
Bow! Bow! Bow! (laughs)
-Damn. Get it. Get it.
340
00:13:02,049 --> 00:13:03,951
-Anyway...
-What's up?
341
00:13:03,984 --> 00:13:05,685
But y-you're good with
ignoring the e-mail, right?
342
00:13:05,718 --> 00:13:07,287
Keeping my story
out of the Times?
343
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,488
Yeah, man,
ain't nobody's business.
344
00:13:08,521 --> 00:13:09,756
-You know what I'm saying?
-Mm.
345
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:11,024
And if somebody does
put it out there,
346
00:13:11,058 --> 00:13:12,325
then we'll deal with it then.
347
00:13:12,359 --> 00:13:13,693
Ain't nobody gonna mess with me
348
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:16,029
-or my baby's
fairy-tale wedding.
-Aw.
349
00:13:16,063 --> 00:13:18,465
Oh, so that's what
my status does?
350
00:13:18,498 --> 00:13:20,467
Mess with your fairy tale?
351
00:13:20,500 --> 00:13:22,302
Stop.
352
00:13:22,335 --> 00:13:24,771
-You know
how perfect you are to me.
-Okay.
353
00:13:24,804 --> 00:13:27,007
-Even when you
a pain in the ass.
-I'm not that bad.
354
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,441
-You are.
-(laughs)
355
00:13:28,475 --> 00:13:30,143
Well, I got to go,
356
00:13:30,177 --> 00:13:32,445
'cause my folks have got me
on a curfew, and I...
357
00:13:32,479 --> 00:13:33,947
Okay, who would have thought
358
00:13:33,981 --> 00:13:35,983
that your parents
would be the extra ones?
359
00:13:36,016 --> 00:13:37,851
Oh, so now you criticizing
my folks?
360
00:13:37,885 --> 00:13:40,053
Okay, you know what,
I'm gonna shut my mouth
361
00:13:40,087 --> 00:13:42,455
-so that you don't
actually cancel this wedding.
-(Kai muttering)
362
00:13:42,489 --> 00:13:44,491
-That's it. (chuckles)
-Yes.
363
00:13:44,524 --> 00:13:47,394
-I love you.
-I love you, too.
364
00:13:47,427 --> 00:13:50,597
-Go. Go.
-(chuckles)
365
00:13:52,699 --> 00:13:54,734
* Diamonds on me dancing
look like water... *
366
00:13:54,767 --> 00:13:56,736
I can't show up
to Jamal's wedding alone
367
00:13:56,769 --> 00:13:59,539
with Tiana showing up
with Devon.
368
00:13:59,572 --> 00:14:01,241
You know what?
I'm-a hit up Haven.
369
00:14:01,274 --> 00:14:02,809
She fine as hell.
370
00:14:02,842 --> 00:14:05,645
If you're really over Tiana,
why you always checking on her?
371
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:07,047
Hey, man,
what you know about my life?
372
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,648
JAMAL:
What's up, y'all?
373
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:10,017
-What'd I miss?
-HAKEEM: You missed me
374
00:14:10,050 --> 00:14:11,518
about to kick
this half-Lyon's ass.
375
00:14:11,551 --> 00:14:13,653
-(chuckles)
-You know, we're all half-Lyons.
376
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:15,055
That's how genetics works.
377
00:14:15,088 --> 00:14:17,324
Yo, Dre, I know your heart
was in the right place,
378
00:14:17,357 --> 00:14:19,159
but you actually
should've asked me
379
00:14:19,192 --> 00:14:21,261
-before you invited him.
-I'm right here. I can hear you.
380
00:14:21,294 --> 00:14:23,196
I'm looking right at you.
I know you here.
381
00:14:23,230 --> 00:14:25,899
I'm only being cordial to you
out of respect for our father.
382
00:14:25,933 --> 00:14:28,168
But I ain't about to wave
some magic wand,
383
00:14:28,201 --> 00:14:30,603
-act like every shady thing
you did didn't happen.
-I'm not gonna wave a magic wand
384
00:14:30,637 --> 00:14:33,740
-and forget all the dime bags
that Lucious sold to my mother.
-You know what?
385
00:14:33,773 --> 00:14:36,509
He did shady stuff
to all of us growing up.
386
00:14:36,543 --> 00:14:37,610
ANDRE:
All right. Okay.
387
00:14:37,644 --> 00:14:39,546
Let's not do this now.
We're family.
388
00:14:39,579 --> 00:14:41,181
That's why we should do this.
389
00:14:41,214 --> 00:14:43,350
JAMAL:
Kingsley, how do we know
you're not gonna
390
00:14:43,383 --> 00:14:45,118
try to take
our family down again?
391
00:14:45,152 --> 00:14:49,089
You don't. But isn't that
how you know I'm a real Lyon?
392
00:14:49,122 --> 00:14:50,623
-JAMAL: You see that?
-Okay, let's...
393
00:14:50,657 --> 00:14:52,092
He's literally telling us
that there's a possibility
394
00:14:52,125 --> 00:14:53,693
-he could do this again.
-Come on, now, Kingsley.
395
00:14:53,726 --> 00:14:55,428
I invited you here
to make peace.
396
00:14:55,462 --> 00:14:57,965
You're the oldest now.
That means you got to take up
397
00:14:57,998 --> 00:15:00,533
the mantle for this family
and have our backs.
398
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:01,668
Now, can you do that?
399
00:15:03,270 --> 00:15:05,872
I'm asking you, can you do that?
400
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:07,607
Yeah.
401
00:15:08,741 --> 00:15:10,577
Let's have a good time.
402
00:15:10,610 --> 00:15:11,611
Cheers.
403
00:15:13,180 --> 00:15:15,248
-Cheers, Dre.
-(Andre chuckles)
404
00:15:15,282 --> 00:15:17,184
(Jamal chuckles)
405
00:15:33,833 --> 00:15:36,069
(Lucious sighs)
406
00:15:36,103 --> 00:15:38,071
What are you still doing up?
407
00:15:38,105 --> 00:15:39,739
Something about this painting
408
00:15:39,772 --> 00:15:43,810
and it being in Damon Cross's
possession don't add up to me.
409
00:15:43,843 --> 00:15:46,779
He didn't say nothing about this
when y'all was in Panama?
410
00:15:46,813 --> 00:15:50,150
Lucious, just be happy
we got the painting back, okay?
411
00:15:50,183 --> 00:15:52,552
I don't trust him.
412
00:15:53,686 --> 00:15:55,955
This is not about that painting.
413
00:15:55,989 --> 00:15:57,790
Or Damon.
414
00:15:57,824 --> 00:16:00,827
This is about what
Jamal asked you to do earlier.
415
00:16:00,860 --> 00:16:02,662
Nah, we worked that out.
416
00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:04,264
Oh, you did?
You worked it out, huh?
417
00:16:04,297 --> 00:16:05,832
(chuckles)
Well, did you see the look
418
00:16:05,865 --> 00:16:09,136
in your son's eyes
when you told him no?
419
00:16:09,169 --> 00:16:11,171
Look, me going
to the damn wedding
420
00:16:11,204 --> 00:16:12,805
is more than enough, Cookie.
421
00:16:12,839 --> 00:16:14,441
It's not enough, Lucious.
422
00:16:14,474 --> 00:16:17,777
Your son has found
the love of his life.
423
00:16:17,810 --> 00:16:19,779
Remember that feeling?
424
00:16:19,812 --> 00:16:22,649
And I know what it's like
to be shunned by your father
425
00:16:22,682 --> 00:16:25,152
-because of who you love.
-This ain't the same thing.
426
00:16:25,185 --> 00:16:27,220
-It's not the same. Hey, hey.
-This is a moral thing
right now.
427
00:16:27,254 --> 00:16:29,656
Hey, Lucious, let me
just put it to you like this.
428
00:16:29,689 --> 00:16:32,225
You let my son down
way too many times.
429
00:16:32,259 --> 00:16:35,362
You do it this time,
we gon' have a problem.
430
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:45,405
How the hell did he get
that damn painting?
431
00:16:52,912 --> 00:16:55,515
And I pledge to you, my beloved,
that we will stand together
432
00:16:55,548 --> 00:17:00,220
as living proof that love
can transform the world.
433
00:17:00,253 --> 00:17:02,222
-It's cute.
-(sighs)
434
00:17:02,255 --> 00:17:04,757
"Transform our world"?
435
00:17:04,791 --> 00:17:08,361
Okay, honestly,
it's giving me Britney Spears
436
00:17:08,395 --> 00:17:10,530
when it should be giving me
India.Arie.
437
00:17:10,563 --> 00:17:12,832
I know. I know.
438
00:17:12,865 --> 00:17:14,701
I'm, like, trying
to make it all fluffy.
439
00:17:14,734 --> 00:17:17,070
The New York Times
is gonna print it, all--
440
00:17:17,104 --> 00:17:19,005
I got to get it right.
441
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:21,674
Of course you'll get it right.
442
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:24,611
Honestly, I think you are
stressing about it too much.
443
00:17:24,644 --> 00:17:26,913
All you got to do is
get up there and talk to Kai
444
00:17:26,946 --> 00:17:29,749
like you're the only two people
in the entire world.
445
00:17:29,782 --> 00:17:31,118
It's that easy.
446
00:17:31,151 --> 00:17:33,753
-Oh.
-Is that a damn hickey
on your chest?
447
00:17:33,786 --> 00:17:37,090
Okay, I'm a grown-up.
I don't get hickeys, okay?
448
00:17:37,124 --> 00:17:39,292
Is that from the stripper
you were thirsting at?
449
00:17:39,326 --> 00:17:42,061
Clearly he was thirsting at me.
You see this hickey!
450
00:17:42,095 --> 00:17:45,298
And on top of that,
I'm a grown woman, okay?
451
00:17:45,332 --> 00:17:46,433
I can do whatever I want.
452
00:17:46,466 --> 00:17:49,068
Okay, King B. Do you, boo.
453
00:17:49,102 --> 00:17:50,770
I will.
I'll do some of him, too.
454
00:17:50,803 --> 00:17:52,772
-I'm sure you will.
You're nasty.
-(laughs)
455
00:17:52,805 --> 00:17:53,773
(elevator bell dings)
456
00:17:53,806 --> 00:17:55,808
Yeah, no, no,
I'm headed out of the--
457
00:17:55,842 --> 00:17:57,210
getting to the garage right now.
458
00:17:57,244 --> 00:17:58,878
Just have security meet me
down there.
459
00:17:58,911 --> 00:18:00,647
-I got my suit...
-Hey, hey, hey. Lucious, hey.
460
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,082
Do you, uh, consider yourself
an ally to the LGBTQ community?
461
00:18:03,116 --> 00:18:04,717
REPORTER:
And do you regret
the use of gay slurs
462
00:18:04,751 --> 00:18:06,486
in your lyrics?
463
00:18:06,519 --> 00:18:08,755
I'm just trying
to support my son
464
00:18:08,788 --> 00:18:12,058
even though I don't necessarily
agree with all his choices.
465
00:18:12,091 --> 00:18:15,395
Lucious Lyon.
In living color.
466
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:18,498
Hope you're not in a rush.
We have a lot to discuss.
467
00:18:19,832 --> 00:18:21,701
Come with us.
468
00:18:24,937 --> 00:18:26,773
HAKEEM:
Okay.
469
00:18:26,806 --> 00:18:28,275
Janice or Harriet?
470
00:18:28,308 --> 00:18:29,676
Hakeem.
471
00:18:29,709 --> 00:18:31,278
(chuckles):
You cannot take a porn star
472
00:18:31,311 --> 00:18:33,446
to your brother's wedding.
473
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,182
I mean, unless you want Tiana
to think you have chlamydia.
474
00:18:35,215 --> 00:18:36,949
Look, I get it.
If you don't want to go
475
00:18:36,983 --> 00:18:39,519
to the wedding alone,
I mean, I'll go with you.
476
00:18:39,552 --> 00:18:40,987
What?
477
00:18:41,020 --> 00:18:42,522
I'm just being a friend.
478
00:18:42,555 --> 00:18:46,659
Besides...
I make damn good arm candy.
479
00:18:46,693 --> 00:18:48,628
I'll see you here at 3:00.
480
00:18:51,698 --> 00:18:53,633
Don't be late.
481
00:18:58,371 --> 00:19:00,106
Look, lady,
how long is this gonna take?
482
00:19:00,139 --> 00:19:01,508
CONWAY:
Are you anxious
483
00:19:01,541 --> 00:19:04,444
to get to
the boy-on-boy nuptials?
484
00:19:04,477 --> 00:19:06,446
'Cause I can give you a lift.
485
00:19:06,479 --> 00:19:08,481
All the Lyons
will be there, right?
486
00:19:08,515 --> 00:19:11,184
I can round them all up and then
ask them all some questions.
487
00:19:11,218 --> 00:19:13,520
God, that would be
convenient for me.
488
00:19:13,553 --> 00:19:15,722
The bride wouldn't mind,
right? Oh.
489
00:19:15,755 --> 00:19:18,057
I'm sorry.
Which one is the bride?
490
00:19:18,090 --> 00:19:19,492
Your son?
491
00:19:21,594 --> 00:19:23,663
What do you want?
492
00:19:23,696 --> 00:19:25,532
Look, call Maya and find out
493
00:19:25,565 --> 00:19:27,334
where the hell she is
with my orchids.
494
00:19:27,367 --> 00:19:29,569
And let her little ass know
I'm not playing with her.
495
00:19:29,602 --> 00:19:30,537
Mm-hmm.
496
00:19:32,272 --> 00:19:34,507
-Oh, okay, thank you.
-Mm-hmm.
497
00:19:34,541 --> 00:19:36,008
(clears throat)
498
00:19:36,042 --> 00:19:38,010
The hell are you doing here?
499
00:19:38,044 --> 00:19:40,079
Man, I don't get
a "Good afternoon, Damon.
500
00:19:40,112 --> 00:19:41,348
You look so ni..."
501
00:19:41,381 --> 00:19:43,182
Hey. That's not funny.
502
00:19:43,216 --> 00:19:44,851
Come on. Come on!
503
00:19:50,089 --> 00:19:52,592
-Okay, why are you even here?
-I was invited.
504
00:19:52,625 --> 00:19:54,727
-I was supposed to say no?
-Yes. Yes, you were.
505
00:19:54,761 --> 00:19:56,229
You were supposed
to make something up.
506
00:19:56,263 --> 00:19:57,997
I don't know.
And-and why the hell
507
00:19:58,030 --> 00:19:59,666
did you come to my house
with that painting?
508
00:19:59,699 --> 00:20:01,834
Did you have it all this time?
509
00:20:01,868 --> 00:20:03,903
What does it matter?
You broke it off, so...
510
00:20:03,936 --> 00:20:06,739
Okay. I'm-a need you
to stop saying that.
511
00:20:06,773 --> 00:20:09,542
Okay, there was nothing
to break off, all right?
512
00:20:09,576 --> 00:20:11,878
Then what was
with the whole speech?
513
00:20:11,911 --> 00:20:13,913
You told me that
you didn't think it was right.
514
00:20:13,946 --> 00:20:16,015
Well, I don't think
there's anything more right.
515
00:20:16,048 --> 00:20:18,518
-I miss you.
-Okay.
516
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:20,520
You can't be here.
517
00:20:20,553 --> 00:20:22,522
-Cookie.
-You need to leave.
518
00:20:22,555 --> 00:20:24,391
Leave.
519
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:29,095
(sighs)
520
00:20:34,601 --> 00:20:37,604
Jamal. Jamal!
521
00:20:37,637 --> 00:20:39,606
-Jamal, wait.
-Ma, what was that?
522
00:20:39,639 --> 00:20:42,074
-Nothing.
-Well, it looked like something.
523
00:20:42,108 --> 00:20:44,210
(sighs)
524
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:48,581
Okay, when Andre got sick,
I needed some support,
525
00:20:48,615 --> 00:20:51,484
and Damon just got
the wires crossed, that's all.
526
00:20:51,518 --> 00:20:53,620
-So, did you tell Dad?
-No.
527
00:20:53,653 --> 00:20:55,488
He wouldn't understand,
and you know that.
528
00:20:55,522 --> 00:20:57,324
So you've been sitting here,
lying to Dad all this time?
529
00:20:57,357 --> 00:20:58,758
-Mm. (sighs)
-Mom, now, I-I know
530
00:20:58,791 --> 00:21:00,059
that y'all have had
your ups and downs,
531
00:21:00,092 --> 00:21:01,994
but you of all people
I expect to be better than that.
532
00:21:02,028 --> 00:21:04,130
I'm not going to sit here
533
00:21:04,163 --> 00:21:06,833
and pretend like
my marriage is perfect. Okay?
534
00:21:06,866 --> 00:21:08,901
-You are about to...
-Ma.
535
00:21:08,935 --> 00:21:11,237
Don't do that. Don't-don't-don't
tell me that I'll see.
536
00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:13,340
Don't wish that on me.
537
00:21:13,373 --> 00:21:15,375
Not today.
538
00:21:17,477 --> 00:21:19,278
(sighs)
539
00:21:19,312 --> 00:21:21,748
CONWAY:
Turn state's evidence
against Damon Cross,
540
00:21:21,781 --> 00:21:24,617
and you're free to go.
It's as simple as that.
541
00:21:24,651 --> 00:21:26,185
Who?
542
00:21:26,218 --> 00:21:27,987
His dirty Panama money
is all over Empire's books.
543
00:21:28,020 --> 00:21:30,790
Did you not think I'd know that?
544
00:21:30,823 --> 00:21:32,759
I run a multinational company.
545
00:21:32,792 --> 00:21:35,595
I have no idea
who half the investors are.
546
00:21:35,628 --> 00:21:38,264
If you're protecting him
out of some stupid, misguided
547
00:21:38,297 --> 00:21:40,132
thug code, don't.
Because when I make
548
00:21:40,166 --> 00:21:43,470
the same offer to Cross, you're
gonna wish you'd played ball.
549
00:21:43,503 --> 00:21:46,205
I'm only coming to you first
out of courtesy
550
00:21:46,238 --> 00:21:49,108
because I hate to admit it...
551
00:21:49,141 --> 00:21:51,444
but I am a fan.
552
00:21:51,478 --> 00:21:53,846
(chuckles) Really?
553
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,682
You're a fan?
554
00:21:55,715 --> 00:21:58,017
"Snitch Bitch" is my jam.
555
00:22:00,420 --> 00:22:02,389
You know,
556
00:22:02,422 --> 00:22:06,693
if you knew a tenth
of what you're asking me about,
557
00:22:06,726 --> 00:22:09,862
we wouldn't be having
this conversation, would we?
558
00:22:09,896 --> 00:22:12,331
You played a lot of games
with us when the White House
559
00:22:12,365 --> 00:22:15,167
had a little bit more melanin
in it, but today is a new day.
560
00:22:15,201 --> 00:22:18,371
And me shutting down your tour
for a week?
561
00:22:18,405 --> 00:22:21,007
Well, that's just
my warm-up act.
562
00:22:22,775 --> 00:22:25,211
The whole time
you've been talking to me,
563
00:22:25,244 --> 00:22:29,081
I've been sitting here
thinking about my son,
564
00:22:29,115 --> 00:22:33,553
and how this is the most
important day for his life.
565
00:22:33,586 --> 00:22:35,888
And I'll be damned
if I'm-a allow you
566
00:22:35,922 --> 00:22:37,924
or anybody else to ruin that.
567
00:22:37,957 --> 00:22:41,428
So, if you got plans on
coming to my son's wedding,
568
00:22:41,461 --> 00:22:44,096
and you like "Snitch Bitch,"
569
00:22:44,130 --> 00:22:46,533
you should give a listen
to "I Shot a Fed."
570
00:22:48,034 --> 00:22:49,268
A couple of times.
571
00:22:51,771 --> 00:22:53,473
(quiet chatter)
572
00:22:55,141 --> 00:22:56,576
JAMAL:
I can't believe this.
573
00:22:56,609 --> 00:22:59,846
-He's a half hour late.
-I'm sure he's on his way, baby.
574
00:22:59,879 --> 00:23:01,514
Mom, you don't know that.
You know, I shouldn't have even
575
00:23:01,548 --> 00:23:02,949
asked him to walk me down
the aisle. I should've known
576
00:23:02,982 --> 00:23:04,617
that that's something
that would trigger him.
577
00:23:04,651 --> 00:23:06,686
Look, I know that you are in
your feelings right now, baby,
578
00:23:06,719 --> 00:23:08,354
but those are just nerves, okay?
579
00:23:08,387 --> 00:23:10,222
Mommy, I'm not nervous, okay?
I'm angry.
580
00:23:10,256 --> 00:23:12,959
And I'm not some little boy
that he threw in the trash.
581
00:23:12,992 --> 00:23:14,794
I'm a grown man,
and I'm pissed off.
582
00:23:14,827 --> 00:23:16,128
I'm mad,
and I'm disappointed at the fact
583
00:23:16,162 --> 00:23:17,697
that he's not the man
I thought he was.
584
00:23:17,730 --> 00:23:18,931
Just give him a chance,
all right?
585
00:23:18,965 --> 00:23:20,232
Let me call him again.
586
00:23:20,266 --> 00:23:22,769
There he is.
Where the hell have you been?
587
00:23:22,802 --> 00:23:24,471
Feds picked me up.
588
00:23:24,504 --> 00:23:26,773
-What?!
-Wouldn't even let me
make a call.
589
00:23:26,806 --> 00:23:28,575
None of that matters.
What matters is
590
00:23:28,608 --> 00:23:32,244
I almost missed the chance
to walk my son down the aisle.
591
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,115
I thought, um...
592
00:23:36,148 --> 00:23:38,785
I thought I-I made a mistake
asking you.
593
00:23:38,818 --> 00:23:40,453
(Jamal chuckles)
594
00:23:40,487 --> 00:23:41,821
I don't know what I thought.
595
00:23:41,854 --> 00:23:43,790
You thought
I was ashamed of you.
596
00:23:45,191 --> 00:23:47,326
I'm ashamed of me.
597
00:23:48,461 --> 00:23:50,396
Look, I still can't make
598
00:23:50,429 --> 00:23:52,732
heads or tails
of none of this stuff,
599
00:23:52,765 --> 00:23:54,467
but none of that matters.
600
00:23:54,501 --> 00:23:58,137
What matters is that...
you are my son.
601
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,243
And there's been so much hurt
between us, I'm...
602
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:07,313
I don't want to cause no more,
so let's get you married, okay?
603
00:24:07,346 --> 00:24:09,448
-Yeah.
-He has to hurry up. Let's go.
604
00:24:09,482 --> 00:24:11,383
Come on.
605
00:24:18,324 --> 00:24:20,292
(piano playing gentle intro
to "Love Me Still")
606
00:24:30,202 --> 00:24:36,342
* Here is my hand
for you to hold *
607
00:24:36,375 --> 00:24:42,314
* Here's the part of me
they have not sold *
608
00:24:44,050 --> 00:24:50,623
* I've wandered far,
I've had my fill *
609
00:24:50,657 --> 00:24:54,527
* I loved you then *
610
00:24:54,561 --> 00:24:56,729
* Do you love me still? *
611
00:25:03,169 --> 00:25:07,940
* Ooh, ooh, ooh *
612
00:25:13,512 --> 00:25:16,382
* Mm, mm, mm *
613
00:25:25,558 --> 00:25:29,629
* Only you have seen *
614
00:25:32,298 --> 00:25:36,903
* Other side of me *
615
00:25:39,305 --> 00:25:42,274
* Call me naive *
616
00:25:42,308 --> 00:25:44,844
* I think you will *
617
00:25:44,877 --> 00:25:48,715
* I love you now *
618
00:25:48,748 --> 00:25:51,584
* Do you love me still? *
619
00:25:53,552 --> 00:26:00,359
* Here are the eyes
that only see you *
620
00:26:00,392 --> 00:26:05,798
* Here is the mouth
that only calls your name *
621
00:26:05,832 --> 00:26:11,437
* Here is the song
they cannot kill *
622
00:26:13,105 --> 00:26:16,108
* I love you now *
623
00:26:16,142 --> 00:26:20,780
* Do you love me still? *
624
00:26:21,981 --> 00:26:25,217
* Mm-hmm-mm *
625
00:26:25,251 --> 00:26:30,723
* Ooh. *
626
00:26:30,757 --> 00:26:33,760
-(applause)
-Chaka Khan.
-Chaka Khan?
627
00:26:33,793 --> 00:26:35,728
-Chaka Khan. Chaka Khan.
Chaka Khan. Chaka Khan.
-(laughter)
628
00:26:35,762 --> 00:26:37,263
At our wedding, y'all.
629
00:26:37,296 --> 00:26:38,831
-Come on, now.
-Thank you.
630
00:26:38,865 --> 00:26:41,333
-CHAKA: Oh, God bless you.
-God bless you.
631
00:26:41,367 --> 00:26:43,302
-I love you both.
-Love you.
632
00:26:43,335 --> 00:26:44,637
(Chaka chuckles)
633
00:26:50,342 --> 00:26:51,644
(laughs)
634
00:26:51,678 --> 00:26:52,945
(sighs):
Oh.
635
00:26:52,979 --> 00:26:54,513
Oh, I am blessed.
636
00:26:54,546 --> 00:26:58,117
We all are, because we're here.
637
00:26:58,150 --> 00:27:01,788
And we're here because of love.
638
00:27:01,821 --> 00:27:03,422
Now, before we get into this,
639
00:27:03,455 --> 00:27:05,992
if anyone here
can show just cause
640
00:27:06,025 --> 00:27:08,260
as to why these two
should not get married,
641
00:27:08,294 --> 00:27:10,029
you better sit down
and eat your rice, okay?
642
00:27:10,062 --> 00:27:12,665
-(laughter)
-'Cause we are making
history in this bitch...
643
00:27:12,699 --> 00:27:14,767
-Uh, oh-oh-oh. Church, Becky.
-What?
644
00:27:14,801 --> 00:27:16,435
-BECKY: In this piece.
-Oh. (laughs)
645
00:27:16,468 --> 00:27:18,337
Sorry. Um...
646
00:27:18,370 --> 00:27:20,439
Kai? (chuckles)
647
00:27:20,472 --> 00:27:22,341
(chuckles)
648
00:27:22,374 --> 00:27:23,342
(sighs)
649
00:27:23,375 --> 00:27:25,111
Jamal,
650
00:27:25,144 --> 00:27:28,815
first you were the gorgeous man
651
00:27:28,848 --> 00:27:32,985
who I saved from a creeper
at a bar in London.
652
00:27:33,019 --> 00:27:35,554
Then you were the conceited man
653
00:27:35,587 --> 00:27:38,390
who was bragging in a studio
on our first date.
654
00:27:38,424 --> 00:27:39,892
-Uh, and obviously it worked.
-Okay.
655
00:27:39,926 --> 00:27:41,694
(laughter)
656
00:27:44,530 --> 00:27:46,532
But you are so much more
than that.
657
00:27:48,434 --> 00:27:51,637
(crying softly):
You're the compassionate man...
658
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:53,873
who loves me for who I am.
659
00:27:56,743 --> 00:28:00,479
The considerate man
who still finds time to call me,
660
00:28:00,512 --> 00:28:03,615
even when there are
ten time zones between us.
661
00:28:06,418 --> 00:28:10,256
And the patient man
who will stand beside me
662
00:28:10,289 --> 00:28:12,358
no matter
what the world throws at us.
663
00:28:14,260 --> 00:28:16,996
You are my everything.
664
00:28:17,029 --> 00:28:20,432
And I love you so much.
665
00:28:20,466 --> 00:28:22,534
(whispers):
I love you.
666
00:28:22,568 --> 00:28:24,370
(Kai sniffles)
667
00:28:24,403 --> 00:28:26,072
Jamal?
668
00:28:26,105 --> 00:28:28,207
Uh...
669
00:28:33,579 --> 00:28:36,415
(Becky and Jamal laugh)
670
00:28:36,448 --> 00:28:37,784
Um...
671
00:28:40,219 --> 00:28:42,789
-I'm sorry. I can't do this.
-Mal?
672
00:28:42,822 --> 00:28:45,091
(crowd murmuring)
673
00:28:50,262 --> 00:28:52,531
-Jamal.
-Everybody, calm down.
674
00:28:52,564 --> 00:28:54,000
(chuckles)
675
00:28:55,434 --> 00:28:57,436
I can't...
676
00:28:57,469 --> 00:29:01,040
recite some cookie-cutter vows
about love and marriage
677
00:29:01,073 --> 00:29:03,075
because...
678
00:29:03,109 --> 00:29:06,278
'cause I know in my heart that
love and marriage are messy.
679
00:29:08,781 --> 00:29:11,083
More messy than
I wanted to admit before.
680
00:29:14,620 --> 00:29:16,923
But that's what makes it real.
681
00:29:18,624 --> 00:29:21,160
Kai, I don't want
a fairy tale with you.
682
00:29:21,193 --> 00:29:24,864
I want something real,
something that endures.
683
00:29:26,999 --> 00:29:28,500
Like what our parents have.
684
00:29:28,534 --> 00:29:30,102
I don't know about the Givens,
685
00:29:30,136 --> 00:29:31,737
but maybe
a little bit less drama
686
00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:33,739
-than the Lyons have had.
-(laughter)
687
00:29:33,772 --> 00:29:34,807
Oh, man.
688
00:29:37,143 --> 00:29:39,411
But here's what I can promise.
689
00:29:39,445 --> 00:29:41,347
I promise that I'm-a be...
690
00:29:43,449 --> 00:29:45,017
30% messy...
691
00:29:45,051 --> 00:29:46,785
(exhales softly)
692
00:29:46,819 --> 00:29:48,955
...if you will, too.
693
00:29:50,056 --> 00:29:51,958
(crying):
I will.
694
00:29:51,991 --> 00:29:53,926
JAMAL:
I promise that I'll forgive you
695
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,362
as much as I ask
for forgiveness,
696
00:29:56,395 --> 00:29:58,931
if you will, too.
697
00:29:58,965 --> 00:30:00,432
KAI:
I will.
698
00:30:00,466 --> 00:30:05,004
And most importantly,
Kai, I'm-a hold you every day.
699
00:30:05,037 --> 00:30:07,606
And I'm-a be with you.
700
00:30:07,639 --> 00:30:13,079
And I will love you forever,
if you will, too.
701
00:30:14,213 --> 00:30:16,048
I will.
702
00:30:16,082 --> 00:30:18,384
Seems like we're married.
703
00:30:18,417 --> 00:30:20,619
-(both chuckle)
-BECKY: Okay. Hold on.
704
00:30:20,652 --> 00:30:22,955
I will tell you
when you are married.
705
00:30:22,989 --> 00:30:24,690
(laughing)
706
00:30:24,723 --> 00:30:27,326
-Exchange rings.
-Oh. Uh...
707
00:30:29,161 --> 00:30:31,030
(sighs)
708
00:30:38,270 --> 00:30:43,142
Well, by the power vested in me
by the Universal Life Church,
709
00:30:43,175 --> 00:30:47,713
I now pronounce you...
husband and husband.
710
00:30:49,081 --> 00:30:51,083
(applause)
711
00:30:51,117 --> 00:30:52,985
-(crowd cheering)
-Jamal!
712
00:30:53,019 --> 00:30:54,453
(laughing)
713
00:31:03,729 --> 00:31:05,064
(both laughing)
714
00:31:05,097 --> 00:31:06,765
Now you may jump the broom.
715
00:31:30,256 --> 00:31:32,891
(crowd cheering)
716
00:32:16,535 --> 00:32:20,706
* At last *
717
00:32:23,675 --> 00:32:29,181
* My love has come along *
718
00:32:31,283 --> 00:32:36,388
* My lonely days are over *
719
00:32:39,458 --> 00:32:45,364
* And life is like a song *
720
00:32:45,397 --> 00:32:49,501
* Oh, yeah, yeah, mm *
721
00:32:49,535 --> 00:32:53,105
* Found a dream *
722
00:32:53,139 --> 00:32:57,209
* That I could speak to *
723
00:32:57,243 --> 00:33:03,649
* A dream
that I can call my own *
724
00:33:05,484 --> 00:33:08,554
* I found a thrill *
725
00:33:08,587 --> 00:33:13,059
* To press my cheek to *
726
00:33:13,092 --> 00:33:19,065
* A thrill
that I never, ever known *
727
00:33:19,098 --> 00:33:21,133
* Oh, oh *
728
00:33:21,167 --> 00:33:24,470
* Oh, and you smiled *
729
00:33:24,503 --> 00:33:26,238
* You smiled *
730
00:33:28,340 --> 00:33:32,144
* Oh, and then
the spell was cast *
731
00:33:32,178 --> 00:33:33,712
* On me *
732
00:33:36,915 --> 00:33:39,751
* And here we are in heaven *
733
00:33:39,785 --> 00:33:41,553
I love you.
734
00:33:43,855 --> 00:33:45,757
* For you are mine *
735
00:33:45,791 --> 00:33:47,659
I love you, too.
736
00:33:47,693 --> 00:33:51,663
* At... *
737
00:33:51,697 --> 00:33:56,602
* At last. *
738
00:33:56,635 --> 00:33:58,104
(crowd cheering)
739
00:34:03,775 --> 00:34:05,077
("Let's Groove" by
Earth, Wind & Fire playing)
740
00:34:05,111 --> 00:34:07,546
Now, everyone!
741
00:34:07,579 --> 00:34:08,880
On the dance floor!
742
00:34:10,882 --> 00:34:12,418
* Let's groove tonight *
743
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:16,455
* Share the spice of life *
744
00:34:18,624 --> 00:34:20,226
* Baby, slice it right *
745
00:34:20,259 --> 00:34:22,428
Thank you.
746
00:34:22,461 --> 00:34:24,062
* We're gonna
groove tonight... *
747
00:34:24,096 --> 00:34:25,397
Congratulations.
748
00:34:25,431 --> 00:34:28,567
-It was so beautiful.
-Thank you.
749
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:33,071
Um, we've both decided
to let you print everything.
750
00:34:33,105 --> 00:34:36,975
How I'm HIV-positive
and how I'm loved.
751
00:34:37,008 --> 00:34:38,777
Our whole story.
752
00:34:38,810 --> 00:34:41,046
I thought that was
no one's business.
753
00:34:41,079 --> 00:34:42,814
That's still true,
754
00:34:42,848 --> 00:34:44,950
but I just watched Lucious walk
you down the aisle. (laughs)
755
00:34:44,983 --> 00:34:47,153
I know. I know. (laughs)
756
00:34:47,186 --> 00:34:49,988
See, that happened because you
showed him who you are, and...
757
00:34:50,021 --> 00:34:52,057
and he grew from it.
758
00:34:52,090 --> 00:34:53,892
* You're looking good,
you're out of sight... *
759
00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:56,228
I'm not ashamed about my status.
760
00:34:56,262 --> 00:34:57,929
It's a part of who I am,
761
00:34:57,963 --> 00:35:00,332
and I won't let anyone
use it against me.
762
00:35:00,366 --> 00:35:01,667
No one should.
763
00:35:01,700 --> 00:35:04,436
* And glide like a 747... *
764
00:35:04,470 --> 00:35:07,473
Excuse me. Do you mind
if I have a word with Mal?
765
00:35:07,506 --> 00:35:09,141
-Yeah, of course.
-Hi.
766
00:35:09,175 --> 00:35:11,943
(Cookie chuckles)
767
00:35:11,977 --> 00:35:14,646
What you said at that altar
was beautiful.
768
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,648
I meant every word.
769
00:35:16,682 --> 00:35:19,785
Mal, look, um, what you saw
between me and Damon,
770
00:35:19,818 --> 00:35:22,521
it was j-- it was, uh,
it was just a moment or two
771
00:35:22,554 --> 00:35:24,290
that shouldn't have
never happened,
772
00:35:24,323 --> 00:35:26,325
but I promise you, baby,
they were just moments.
773
00:35:26,358 --> 00:35:28,160
-I love your father.
-Mom. Mom.
774
00:35:28,194 --> 00:35:30,929
You don't owe me an explanation,
775
00:35:30,962 --> 00:35:33,832
and... I don't deserve
to judge you, all right?
776
00:35:35,734 --> 00:35:37,936
I love you so much.
(laughs)
777
00:35:37,969 --> 00:35:39,671
I love you, too.
778
00:35:39,705 --> 00:35:42,608
-Can we dance? (chuckles)
-Yes. Come on. (whoops)
779
00:35:42,641 --> 00:35:44,776
Couldn't tell you can
clean up this good.
780
00:35:44,810 --> 00:35:47,279
Oh, well, this isn't for you,
it's for Vanity Fair.
781
00:35:47,313 --> 00:35:49,615
(Tiana laughing)
782
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:51,983
HAKEEM:
You know what?
783
00:35:52,017 --> 00:35:53,885
I'll be right back.
784
00:35:53,919 --> 00:35:57,223
(Tiana and Devon chatting
indistinctly)
785
00:35:57,256 --> 00:35:59,191
TIANA:
She's sleepy.
786
00:35:59,225 --> 00:36:01,126
(coughs)
787
00:36:01,159 --> 00:36:02,728
Hakeem, what up?
788
00:36:02,761 --> 00:36:05,063
We got a problem.
789
00:36:05,096 --> 00:36:07,733
Look, Tiana told me
you might feel
790
00:36:07,766 --> 00:36:09,835
some type of way
about me being here.
791
00:36:09,868 --> 00:36:11,203
It's not even that.
792
00:36:11,237 --> 00:36:13,639
It's the fact
that I haven't even danced
793
00:36:13,672 --> 00:36:15,207
with my baby girl all night.
794
00:36:16,408 --> 00:36:18,210
You want to dance with Daddy?
795
00:36:18,244 --> 00:36:20,546
* All right, all right *
796
00:36:20,579 --> 00:36:21,847
* Yeah... *
797
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,415
-(whispers): Have fun.
-Come on.
798
00:36:23,449 --> 00:36:25,684
* Set in your shoes,
so stand up *
799
00:36:25,717 --> 00:36:28,687
* All right, all right... *
800
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:30,722
-Okay.
-You good?
801
00:36:30,756 --> 00:36:32,524
-Where's the bar?
-This way.
802
00:36:32,558 --> 00:36:33,892
All right. (chuckles)
803
00:36:33,925 --> 00:36:36,595
* Come and see, you and me. *
804
00:36:36,628 --> 00:36:39,598
* When a man loves a woman... *
805
00:36:39,631 --> 00:36:41,767
-(Cookie chuckles)
-Oh, my God, we have come
806
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,502
a long way from our reception
807
00:36:43,535 --> 00:36:46,672
with the paper plates
and the little plastic cups.
808
00:36:46,705 --> 00:36:49,074
Mm, yes, we have.
809
00:36:49,107 --> 00:36:51,910
And you've come
a long way, too, Lucious.
810
00:36:51,943 --> 00:36:53,779
I mean, you really
came through for Jamal
811
00:36:53,812 --> 00:36:56,014
in ways that I never thought
was possible.
812
00:36:56,047 --> 00:36:57,916
And I love you for that.
813
00:36:57,949 --> 00:36:59,718
(giggles)
814
00:36:59,751 --> 00:37:01,253
-That's our boy.
-Mm-hmm.
815
00:37:01,287 --> 00:37:03,722
That's what we made together.
(chuckles)
816
00:37:03,755 --> 00:37:05,190
Oh, speaking of son.
817
00:37:05,223 --> 00:37:07,593
(chuckles):
Hey, there you are.
818
00:37:07,626 --> 00:37:09,895
Just wanted to thank you
for inviting me.
819
00:37:09,928 --> 00:37:11,730
-Especially you, Cookie.
-Yeah, well, you know,
820
00:37:11,763 --> 00:37:15,033
anybody who's important
to Lucious is important to me.
821
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:17,703
But let's be clear.
822
00:37:17,736 --> 00:37:20,972
You come for me and mine again,
that's your ass.
823
00:37:22,741 --> 00:37:24,876
Now, I didn't bring you
into this world, young man,
824
00:37:24,910 --> 00:37:26,778
but I will take you out.
825
00:37:26,812 --> 00:37:29,147
Yes, ma'am.
826
00:37:29,180 --> 00:37:31,750
Enjoy the cake.
827
00:37:31,783 --> 00:37:34,886
It has gold dust
in the frosting.
828
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,323
That's her way of saying
she's starting to like you.
829
00:37:37,356 --> 00:37:38,757
-Oh, I hope so.
-(laughs)
830
00:37:38,790 --> 00:37:41,059
I'll take whatever I can get.
831
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:44,396
LUCIOUS:
So I hear that
you and your brothers
832
00:37:44,430 --> 00:37:46,898
-went out last night.
-Oh, you heard about that.
833
00:37:46,932 --> 00:37:50,235
It was tough.
I'm not gonna lie.
834
00:37:50,268 --> 00:37:52,103
But Andre had my back.
835
00:37:52,137 --> 00:37:54,005
He told me how important
it was to him
836
00:37:54,039 --> 00:37:57,108
that I take on the mantle
now that I'm the oldest.
837
00:37:57,142 --> 00:37:59,177
Meant a lot to me.
838
00:37:59,210 --> 00:38:01,780
Hmm.
839
00:38:01,813 --> 00:38:03,715
-Congratulations.
-Great to see you.
840
00:38:05,050 --> 00:38:09,087
* When a man loves a woman... *
841
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,322
Teri?
842
00:38:10,356 --> 00:38:12,023
(chuckles)
843
00:38:12,057 --> 00:38:14,993
-Are you okay?
-Me?
844
00:38:15,026 --> 00:38:17,663
Yeah, I, um...
845
00:38:17,696 --> 00:38:20,766
Cookie, this has been
such a beautiful wedding.
846
00:38:20,799 --> 00:38:22,801
-And congratulations.
-Yeah, well, you know,
847
00:38:22,834 --> 00:38:24,770
Lyon family functions
are usually ratchet,
848
00:38:24,803 --> 00:38:27,639
-so count your blessings.
-(chuckles)
849
00:38:27,673 --> 00:38:30,275
Um, Teri,
I hope you will let me have
850
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:32,678
a mama bear moment about Andre.
851
00:38:32,711 --> 00:38:34,813
(scoffs)
Do I really have a choice?
852
00:38:34,846 --> 00:38:37,148
-Mm, not really.
-(both laugh)
853
00:38:37,182 --> 00:38:38,950
Look, I noticed yesterday,
854
00:38:38,984 --> 00:38:41,453
um, when I brought up
the future,
855
00:38:41,487 --> 00:38:43,722
you kind of hesitated.
856
00:38:43,755 --> 00:38:46,558
Now, I know I shouldn't
have put you on the spot,
857
00:38:46,592 --> 00:38:49,828
but I feel like there's
something you're not saying.
858
00:38:51,196 --> 00:38:53,899
Look, Andre has
a new lease on life,
859
00:38:53,932 --> 00:38:56,568
and you helped him with that.
860
00:38:56,602 --> 00:39:01,373
But if you are having second
thoughts about being with him...
861
00:39:01,407 --> 00:39:03,675
don't stay
out of obligation, okay?
862
00:39:03,709 --> 00:39:05,511
'Cause he can handle the truth.
863
00:39:05,544 --> 00:39:07,278
Cookie, it's not that. I...
864
00:39:09,347 --> 00:39:11,316
I love Andre.
865
00:39:11,349 --> 00:39:13,385
I love him more than
I've ever thought
866
00:39:13,419 --> 00:39:16,888
I-I could love any man. I...
867
00:39:21,092 --> 00:39:24,062
I'm, um...
868
00:39:24,095 --> 00:39:25,897
(quietly):
pregnant.
869
00:39:25,931 --> 00:39:27,999
(gasps) What?
870
00:39:28,033 --> 00:39:29,835
Are you sure?
871
00:39:29,868 --> 00:39:32,738
I didn't think it could happen,
872
00:39:32,771 --> 00:39:35,507
but it has happened.
873
00:39:35,541 --> 00:39:38,376
-Well, does Andre know?
-No.
874
00:39:38,410 --> 00:39:42,080
No, and, Cookie, please,
don't tell him. He can't know.
875
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,762
Damn, man, there you go.
876
00:39:56,795 --> 00:39:58,797
Why you hiding out up here?
877
00:39:58,830 --> 00:40:01,399
Um, just, uh...
878
00:40:01,433 --> 00:40:03,134
had a headache, Pop, that's all.
879
00:40:03,168 --> 00:40:05,737
You know, I needed some quiet.
880
00:40:05,771 --> 00:40:09,307
Probably from all that damn
drinking y'all did last night.
881
00:40:09,340 --> 00:40:11,543
(chuckles)
Yeah, I know, Pop, I know.
882
00:40:11,577 --> 00:40:14,646
It's... a special occasion.
883
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:20,418
Yeah, that thing you did
last night with... Jamal
884
00:40:20,452 --> 00:40:22,320
and my daddy's cuff links.
885
00:40:22,353 --> 00:40:25,491
You used to guard them things
with your life.
886
00:40:27,125 --> 00:40:29,094
I wanted him to have
something special.
887
00:40:29,127 --> 00:40:32,297
Well, um...
888
00:40:32,330 --> 00:40:34,299
I was talking to Kingsley.
889
00:40:34,332 --> 00:40:36,434
And he... told me
890
00:40:36,468 --> 00:40:39,571
about y'all conversation
last night about
891
00:40:39,605 --> 00:40:43,408
you passing on
the mantle to him
892
00:40:43,441 --> 00:40:48,313
when you've always been
the rock of our family.
893
00:40:48,346 --> 00:40:52,518
And it's like you're trying
to pass the baton on.
894
00:40:52,551 --> 00:40:56,421
Is there something
that you're not telling me?
895
00:40:56,454 --> 00:40:58,223
No.
896
00:41:04,462 --> 00:41:05,831
(sighs)
897
00:41:07,899 --> 00:41:09,635
I wasn't gonna
say anything, Pop.
898
00:41:09,668 --> 00:41:11,637
I swear, I wasn't gonna
say anything.
899
00:41:11,670 --> 00:41:14,439
You know, it's not my day.
I... I wasn't...
900
00:41:14,472 --> 00:41:19,611
Look, man, you are really
starting to worry me right now.
901
00:41:19,645 --> 00:41:22,781
I'm still dying.
902
00:41:22,814 --> 00:41:24,182
No, you're not.
903
00:41:24,215 --> 00:41:26,117
I heard the doctor say
904
00:41:26,151 --> 00:41:29,287
that the cancer
was now under control.
905
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,890
It is under control.
906
00:41:31,923 --> 00:41:33,692
The chemo drugs I took
907
00:41:33,725 --> 00:41:35,694
to fight the cancer
destroyed my heart muscle.
908
00:41:35,727 --> 00:41:38,797
The doctors just confirmed it.
909
00:41:38,830 --> 00:41:40,999
They're saying
it's irreversible.
910
00:41:41,032 --> 00:41:44,836
No. There's nothing
that's irreversible.
911
00:41:44,870 --> 00:41:48,740
They said that the cancer
could not be beat.
912
00:41:48,774 --> 00:41:50,241
We beat that.
913
00:41:50,275 --> 00:41:53,411
I'm not gonna beat it, Pop.
914
00:41:53,444 --> 00:41:55,547
Not this time.
915
00:41:55,581 --> 00:41:57,749
I need a new heart.
916
00:41:57,783 --> 00:41:59,751
And there's no way
I'm gonna get one
917
00:41:59,785 --> 00:42:03,689
after all the toxic medication
I took to kill the lymphoma.
918
00:42:06,792 --> 00:42:08,259
(grunts softly)
919
00:42:14,766 --> 00:42:16,134
(Lucious exhales)
920
00:42:17,703 --> 00:42:20,271
All right, man, damn.
921
00:42:20,305 --> 00:42:22,373
(sighs)
Okay, so how much...
922
00:42:24,409 --> 00:42:26,077
(sighs)
923
00:42:26,111 --> 00:42:28,814
How much time they giving you?
924
00:42:31,249 --> 00:42:33,685
A couple weeks.
925
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,087
Months, maybe.
I don't know. Um...
926
00:42:36,121 --> 00:42:38,456
I don't know. I don't know.
(chuckles softly)
927
00:42:41,326 --> 00:42:43,595
I can't go out like this, Pop,
you know?
928
00:42:43,629 --> 00:42:45,396
I, um...
929
00:42:45,430 --> 00:42:47,699
I can't, I can't just...
930
00:42:47,733 --> 00:42:49,534
(exhales)
931
00:42:49,567 --> 00:42:52,403
I can't wither away.
932
00:42:52,437 --> 00:42:54,439
You know what I mean? I...
933
00:42:54,472 --> 00:42:58,476
I don't know what you're saying
right now, man.
934
00:42:58,509 --> 00:43:02,280
I'm saying I'm gonna
end my life, Pop.
935
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:04,149
No, you are not.
936
00:43:04,182 --> 00:43:07,385
We are Lyons.
That's not how we go out.
937
00:43:07,418 --> 00:43:10,588
We... we don't give up, man.
938
00:43:10,622 --> 00:43:13,058
I'm not giving up.
939
00:43:13,091 --> 00:43:15,493
Pop, I've decided.
940
00:43:15,526 --> 00:43:20,666
I want to die the way
I should have lived.
941
00:43:20,699 --> 00:43:23,068
On my terms.
942
00:43:23,101 --> 00:43:38,049
Mine.
943
00:43:38,049 --> 00:43:48,059
Mine.
