Cookie: Cookie looks up from the sink as she dries a dish as she stares adoringly at her man. Lucious, you ain't even put out an album and you're already the best there ever was. Seriously?
Lucious: Look, I was just trying to make her softer. You know, nice.
Cookie: Well, it didn't work.
You can't ignore the fact that Teri's on to us. Is she going to be a problem?
Kingsley
Lucious: You want a divorce?
Cookie: It's time. It's time, Lucious.
Can't you hear it? Westside hustler is code for Lucious.
Tracy
Here's your ring.
Cookie
The drama that is Lucious follows me everywhere.
Cookie
I put $1.2 million into this. You will owe that and other stuff.
Lucious
You and I, we were destined to find each other.
Yana
I finally left Lucious. That does deserve a little celebration.
Cookie
Lucious: Look, man, you said some stuff. I said some stuff. But that's what we do, and then we work it out. I mean, I'm trying to get us back on the same damn page, baby. It's been two weeks, are you coming home or not?
Cookie: Oh, coming home. Haha. You want me to come home now Lucious? After what you said about my measly $400,000? No, sir. I'm tired. I'm tired of getting crumbs and begging for what's rightfully mine. So, you win. You win, Lucious. You win, okay. Bravo. Bravo to you, Lucious because I'm tired. I'm done. I'm done talking. I'm done working. I'm done preaching, crying. My knees are tired Lucious. I'm tired. Plus, you did this all by yourself, right? You did this all by yourself. No help. My seventeen years meant nothing. You enjoy your life. Live your biggest life baby. Because that's what I'm about to do.
Cookie: Well, Doc, I came to tell you in person that I won't be needing anymore sessions because I left Lucious child, so I got rid of my 99 problems, so I'm good now.
Therapist: Is that what you think? Lucious is the reason you needed therapy?
Cookie: First of all, I didn't say that I needed therapy. My job did. And plus, you know how toxic and unhealthy he was. You heard my stories.
Therapist: No, what I heard you say was you left your father's house for Lucious when you were a teenager and your lives have been intertwined ever since. Those co-dependent bonds are hard to break. I spent a lot of money on that comfy couch. Would you like to sit down?
Cookie: Well, technically, it is still my hour, right?
We are here to have fun and take your mind off that ass.
