Cookie, who has failed miserably in episode 1 at her attempt to take over the record-label company, decides to start her own independent setup. She joins hands with her son Hakeem (Bryshere Y. Gray), Anika (Grace Gealey) and Andre (Trai Byers) to come up as Empire's competitor, though, they will be faced with huge roadblocks since all four of them are thinking in different directions.

Hakeem is keen on launching a new all-girl band as his company's first project for which has even selected a talented a hot Latina lead singer (guest star Becky G).

Lucious, who was faced with a cold-hearted prosecutor in episode 1, will be more determined to get out of the prison and will hire a more aggressive lawyer. It appear that the move proves fruitful as he is seen back to corporate setup in promos for the episode 2.
