I think Cookie's revelation adds a note of vulnerability. She was a young girl when they got together and he swept her off her feet. He was still a player, but she was the brains of the operation and she put him on the path to greatness.

Whether or not she had action in prison is a whole other thing, but I think Cookie having little exposure to other men before Lucious is a nice touch. As powerful as she is and as much strength and charisma as she radiates, Lucious is in her blood and, at times, I suspect is her Achilles' heel. It's very possible to be strong in one way and deeply vulnerable in another.

ITA. This is exactly what I read into it. Cookie is a bad bitch, but she hasn't always been. As much as she talks about how she made Lucious what he is, she knows deep down that he played a part in her becoming who she is. They're both extremely proud of each other, and when they're with each other, it's like they're still those hustlers trying to get ahead. When Cookie said that Lucious was the only man she's ever been with, that just drove home why she still puts so much time and effort into being in his orbit. She could have other men, sure, but she's too smart to think anyone will ever excite her as much as Lucious has. And yes, Lucious, may have slept with other women, but that means nothing, because he was probably looking for Cookie in every last one of them. Look at Anika. Her plan to hold on to Lucious is to try to beat Cookie at Cookie's game. Lucious will be fooled, sure, but in the end, it'll fail, because there's only one Cookie, and there's only one Lucious.

Holy crap that's amazing.

Fox has a page on their site where you can find out where to get Cookie's outfits. They call it "Cookie's Closet."

What a great episode this week.

I cried during the Cookie/Elle scene. How heartbreaking for poor Elle. Courtney Love is killing it.

Anika is an evil !@#$%^&*] and I cannot wait until she dies (and I'll be so pissed if she doesn't!).

Apparently some people were trying to start some mess saying since Gabby wasn't in every episode, she must've been fired. Gabby shut it down and let them know she wasn't in every episode because she was also filming American Horror Story. YASS bitch, keep werkin', keep gettin' those coins!

She's been biting back at people coming for her lately, and I love it. She has a real, successful career, and people won't get over Precious.

Simply amazing! Love how the show keeps getting bigger and bigger - the only recent comparison I can think of is The Walking Dead and how that show kept getting bigger.

Whoever saying that doesn't know squat. She is a recurring character. She will not be in every episode. Folks stay coming for her. I see why she has keeps her social media blocked. They want her to lose so bad.

If we are going the Dynasty route let's have a shoutout at her wedding to Luscious and after the cliffhanger have her be the only who died.

It's time for another SPOILERicious First Look!

LOL....I was laughing at her not getting the young lingo. BTW, She got way too many lines this week for someone that cant act. They should just let her stand around and look pretty

I thought she did a great job!

Naomi? I guess she did great if we are measuring her ability to read and get the lines out. I wouldnt call that acting though
