This weeks episode opens with Cookie preparing for a great time out with Lucious after receiving the red rose last week but she is quickly jolted back to reality when Lucious announces that he and Anika are engaged.
Listen people, Cookie is trying all she has to keep it together and has taken all she can take and before she bounced? She showed her natural ass!!!
CALL JENNIFER HOLIDAY - JAMAL IS CHANGING:
Jamal's boyfriend goes to Cookie and lets her know that Jamal is changing but Cookie lets him know that it is only a matter of time before fame changes him. Jamal and his boyfriend are having inner conflict because of Jamal's musical talents on the rise and his lack of concern for his boyfriend. Cookie lets Jamal know that he needs somebody on his level and not some guy in cooking school which gets Jamal to thinking.
GOD LIKE MURDER:
Lucious has a ALS episode during breakfast but not before he sees the investigating detective looking through his trash. Lucious confesses to Vernon that he killed Bunkie because Bunkie wanted to play God. Lucious has his mind on the wrong thing including overreacting to the wrong thang and should be watching out for Vernon. Vernon seems to be that dude who cleans up all of Lucious's dirty dealings but something tells us that Vernon has his own desires for the throne of Empire Records.
JUMPSUIT FASHION:
Cookie, who is wearing the hell out of dope jumpsuit and Anika go at in the boardroom of Empire because Anika has decided to cut a long time artist who proves to be difficult from their roster. Later Cookie and Lucious meet with Elle, the difficult artist, played to perfection by Courtney Love.
Right out of the gate Elle lets them know she is not having an ex convict be her manager and jolts but not before leaving them with the gas face. Cookie finds Elle the next day in a bad hotel with a gross drug addict and tells Elle that her music helped her through some tough times and she needs to get her isn together.
Cookie and Elle go at it and Cookie manages to flush her drugs down the toilet and promises her that she can help her get help and reinvent her career. Cookie gets Elle into the studio but Elle's voice is gone and she throws a SERIOUS tantrum. Cookie gets Elle to loosen up by taking off the weave and fake eyelashes and she knocks it out the ballpark.
HAKEEM:
Hakeem is going through it this week because of the Tiana debacle from last week. He ignores Tiana's calls and calls up his girl/mother figure Camilla for some comforting love. Cookie and Jamal hear Hakeem's new single blasting through the halls of Empire much to their chagrin. Lucious wants the single put out to the masses but Jamal let's them know that he won't get away with lyrics degrading women.
ON THE TWITTER:
Cookie manages to get Jamal's record played in the club and it is instantly a hit with the party people. Hakeem is spotted at the club drunk and we ain't talking in love - he and Jamal once again have words regarding Hakeem's disrespect of their mother.
Jamal's star is rising super fast by now and before long he books an artist showcase with Sway Calloway from Sway in The Morning, whom he impresses. Sway asks Jamal how does his girlfriend feel about his success but Jamal promptly lies and says he doesn't have anybody in his life at the moment.
VERNON IS VINDICTIVE:
Vernon manages to get Lucious off the hook for Bunkie's murder by having a guy take the fall for it with the option of the guy's family being taken care off for the rest of his life. Lucious asks Vernon how can he repay him and Vernon pays his fade and walks away.
PORSCHA NEEDS POUNDS/MONEY/CHANGE:
Anika and Porscha run into each other in the elevator of Empire Records and Anika puts the mental moves on Porscha. Anika gets Porscha's wheels spinning by letting her know that she may have a way that Proscha can make more money than what she is receiving being Cookie's assistant.
PAGING CONRAD MURRAY:
Lucious has his own personal doctor, Anika's father, who is seen giving him a controversial drug to treat his ALS. Lucious wants his life back and we believe Anika might just be out in the cold like Dino from The Flintstones once he gets his second wind back.
SECURITY:
Malcom Devoe, played by Derek Luke, is hired by Lucious to beef up his security. He meets Cookie and the sparks instantly fly between the both of them. Cookie is bout to get some crew love from the security guy and we can't wait till Lucious loses his lunch.
ANDRE GOT A KNIFE YALL:
Andre is shocked by Vernon who puts him in a wicked choke hold because Andre didn't tell him that his dad killed Bunkie. Before Andre passes out gasping for air, he lets Vernon know that he didn't know anything about the murder but will do anything to cover for his father. Later on Andre runs into Vernon in the men's bathroom and makes peace with him. Andre quickly lets Vernon know that if he ever chokes him again? He will slit his neck with a knife like Jeffrey Dahmer boiling a pot of hot water.
DADDY:
The family is heading out the door but not before they are interrupted by security letting them know that they have a family member waiting to see them.
In comes Olivia, played to perfection by Raven Symone, with a cute toddler in tow and the episode ends with Olivia letting Jamal know that her daughter wants to meet her father - JAMAL!!!!
Yeah So Jamal - We Have One Question!!!?????????
BRUH!!!!!
