Oh, you workout.

Cookie [to Malcolm]

I need Cookie. You gotta find me Cookie.

Lucious [to Becky]

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop! It was me! It was me! I'm the father. I put the baby in her, not him. I did it.

Lucious

I don't want you money. And as soon as I hear you're dead, I will take the first flight back, you hear me?

Camilla [to Lucious]

Lucious: Hakeem's been jumpy lately, but your name keeps popping up. I need to know how much it will cost to make you disappear. Now, I'm talking money.
Camilla: There's no amount of money, Lucious, that's gonna make me go away from Hakeem. Do you understand?

She [Camilla] got her draws wrapped around my babies neck. And he can't breath.

Cookie [to Lucious]

Jamal: It's getting worse, huh?
Lucious: You haven't the slightest idea.

Well, I've been disloyal to my commander, by falling for his wife. That is a serious breach of every pledge I've ever sworn. So I hope you understand I will be keeping my distance. And I didn't want you to think I wasn't around. Yeah.

Malcolm [to Cookie]

Vernon: We got reasons to be cheerful, bro. Can't believe we about to take this thing public after all these years. Come on, don't leave me hanging.
Lucious: We? You mean me. This is mine, I built this.

Malcolm: Cookie.
Cookie: Yeah, that's my name. Take a bite!

I got what I needed from her and I got rid of her. Whoops, I think I did that to you, too.

Lucious [to Baretti]

Why do you think I picked you to be the one who watches and learns firsthand? I'm handing you the baton. But I'm not doing that until I know you can run like the wind and can handle it.

Lucious [to Hakeem]

Empire Season 1 Quotes

Cookie's coming home.

Cookie

I started selling drugs when I was 9 years old in Philadelphia. I did it to feed myself. But it was the music that played in my head that kept me alive when I thought I was going to get shot. And it was the melodies that I dreamt about that keep me warm when I was sleeping in the streets.
