She replies, I was probably arguing with Lucious, but that aint nothing new.
Back in the front of the hospital, Lucious is giving the doctors hell and insists on an update.
The doctor informs him to call his family: Its going to be a long night.
Andre is the last of the brothers to arrive in the waiting room and he walks into an ambush.
Andre leaves and Lucious takes solace in the hospital chapel.
Instead, he grabs the crucifix off the wall and threatens Sweet Baby Jesus.
They tell Cookie to rest, but all she wants to do is work.
It keeps me sane, she tells her son.
Andre shows up and apologizes for causing her heart attack.
Elsewhere, Eddie and Celeste (a.k.a.
- are trying to sell one of their apartments to make ends meet.
Back in the office, Jamaal is facing the repercussions for his involvement in the DuBois shooting.
Becky informs him that theyve set up an interview with Robin Roberts so he can apologize for his actions.
But Jamaal isnt having it.
Cookie chimes in via speakerphone and threatens to use her heart attack to guilt him into doing the interview.
When she has a business meeting with him, the rapper is standoffish.
He doesnt know how to work with her after she dumped him.
She explains that things are awkward for her too, and then she blurts out that shes pregnant.
Lucious hires a chef who presents Cookie with an antioxidant kale salad.

In his live interview with Robin Roberts, Jamaal defends the DuBois shooting as self-defense.
So instead, she decides to bring the office to her.
She turns the living room into a makeshift recording studio where she can perfect Hakeem and Tianas duet.
Ultimately, Tiana tells Hakeem they should make the best track possible for Cookies sake.
Eddie informs Wife No.
2 that hes canceled the sale of the apartment.
But maybe he shouldnt celebrate so soon.
Andre shows up to the mansion to inform Cookie and Lucious of Eddies plan.
They call Eddie over and confront him with the accusation.
Cookie is still in work mode, much to Lucious chagrin.
She tells him shes fine but as he leaves the room, she breaks down.
Im not ready to die, she says through tears.
(So now Lucious has divine powers in addition to being psychic?
What if this show goes supernatural in season 10?)
