(upbeat jazz music)
(tense music)
Lily,
you're deflecting again.
(eerie music)
No, look, we're not-
I love my wife.
Your wife?
She's gone.
(dark music)
I need you to concentrate.
Now let's go back over that night,
back over the details, one by one.
(dark music)
It was dark. You were outside.
Tsetse fly.
[Ghostly Voice] Tsetse fly.
(Lily moaning)
(tense music)
(book hitting floor)
[Counselor] You heard something. Tsetse fly.
What was it, Lily?
(tense music)
Not this time.
I should've never allowed that to happen.
Envision yourself there now,
back there that night.
It was dark, and you were outside.
Tsetse fly.
(tense music)
That's it. Concentrate.
Tsetse fly.
You're there.
Tell me what it is, Lily.
Tell me what you hear.
I. (gasping)
I see things.
Tell me.
(Lily gasping)
You're a liar.
(tense music)
I want you to stop it.
(eerie music)
You want to leave me,
(Counselor choking)
After all we shared?
(Counselor choking)
(Counselor screaming)
(knocking on door)
(country music)
(mournful country music)
Bye. Love you.
(phone buzzing)
[Person On Phone] Your kiddos gone?
Girl, they just left.
It's like you have a sixth sense.
[Person On Phone] You could call it a gift.
You're picking up the living room right now.
A gift? More like an annoyance.
[Person On Phone] Put those toys down.
I paid for a maid so we could actually
hang out tonight
- and have a good time. - That's nice of you.
Did you pay for like a year's worth of services?
[Person On Phone] I paid for one, one time service.
Okay?
I'm not that nice.
How is she?
- She who? - Joan, the maid.
Oh, the maid.
She hasn't arrived yet.
[Person On Phone] She's late?
Oh, okay. She just lost a star off of her review.
What a bitch.
[Person On Phone] I learned it from you.
Oh, I called to tell you don't bother ordering pizza.
I already got it.
You're so good to me.
[Person On Phone] I can do better than pizza, boo boo.
I can give Tyler,
that extremely cute paralegal in my office,
a call, have him over in 30 minutes,
wrapped in a bow and nothing else.
Stop, isn't he like 19?
[Person On Phone] And a rock solid ass like Idris Elba.
Pizza and the girls is just fine.
[Person On Phone] Fine, I'll tell him
to 86 the sausage on the pizza. (laughing)
Bye.
Need to shower.
Yeah.
(car beeping)
(door closing)
(tense music)
(eerie music)
(bag hitting street)
(neck breaking)
(knocking on door)
Hi.
Hey, look who we found.
Oh, you must be Joan.
(crickets chirping)
So as you can see,
the living room doesn't need too much attention,
it's mainly the other rooms.
So you can start with the downstairs bathroom, okay?
Then do the bathroom upstairs and then the bedrooms.
Okay.
The bathroom is down the hall and to the right.
So, what are we doing?
We could watch a movie or something.
Brenda, what do you wanna do?
I just remember in middle school when we would
have sleepovers with snacks and sodas.
And now, alcohol.
I remember the boys.
(others snickering)
Yeah, we all know you do.
Yeah, those were, those were some good times.
(Brenda sighing)
Stories you hear may or may not be true.
Either way you'll poop your pants.
After you die, that's what you'll do.
(tense music)
[All] So now we sit here
with our crew.
Sit in the circle.
Scary shit will ensue.
Okay, who's going first?
Well, if we are staying in,
I might as well show you how it's done.
I have a tale to tell of marble floors,
half drunk champagne bottles cost someone's mortgage,
boardrooms where legacies are made and broken.
Be careful where you step when you walk in a world
of opulence and apathy.
(person sighing)
Tony, wake up.
We need to talk.
Hey girl, what's up? (exhaling)
Look, it's been five months
and you've made zero effort to look for a job or anything.
It's starting to get old.
I feel you're taking advantage.
You know it's not like that.
(toilet flushing)
Yeah. (slapping her butt)
Text me later.
Oh yeah, we do got a two for one special too.
Seriously Tony?
The pizza guy.
What? A woman has needs.
This is what I'm talking about.
You're not even trying.
You're out every night knocking 'em back.
Why don't you just get a job slinging beer?
I mean, come on.
You have a master's degree.
You nailed it right there.
I'm over educated and under experienced.
Don't even.
You had some great offers.
What about teaching?
Or even substituting until something better comes along?
Come on, Ryan.
You know that's not for me.
Well you better figure something out.
Look, I'm gonna propose to Alex and I want him to move in.
You're gonna propose to him.
Okay well, he hasn't even said yes yet.
And besides, you can do better than that douche.
Don't talk about him like that.
[Tony] What?
That's the other thing.
Every time he comes around,
you act all butt hurt or something.
You've had it out for him for years.
He's kicking ass and taking names at the firm.
He's this close to becoming partner.
Ryan, that warlock has entranced you.
We used to hit up 6th Street all the time.
Like Travis.
The parties.
Dude, we had guys eating out of our hands.
You're right. We were a couple of bad bitches.
But we're all grown up now,
and by the looks of things,
you're doing just fine.
A girl catches one break with a guy
and all of a sudden she's on top of the world?
I've been through some shit that-
Enough of the woe is me bullshit, Tony.
I'm not gonna sit here and take it.
I have to go to work.
(footsteps)
Look, you've got three days.
Figure it out.
(door closing)
That went well.
(keyboard clicking)
Nope,
nope,
nope, nope,
nope.
Oh no.
(light music)
(bong bubbling)
Mary Jane, you're my only friend. (exhaling)
(knocking on door)
(Tony coughing)
Just a minute.
(Tony coughing)
- Hello there. - Yeah?
I'm looking for Miss Ryan Brownstone.
[Tony] Who's asking?
This is 1200 Honey Tree Lane is it not?
Yeah. What do you want, man?
Oh, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Chester P Jenkins.
I'm the estate manager for Maurice David Hartnell.
I've come here on his behalf.
Wait, isn't that like the billionaire dude
who owns all those car dealerships?
Mr. Hartnell is a well esteemed businessman
with many ventures.
Just so happens to own all those car dealerships, yes.
And?
And I'm looking for Miss Ryan Brownstone.
It's urgent, I find her.
Are you Ryan Brownstone?
Oh, you must be.
You have some features reminiscent of a Hartnell.
Oh, here.
You'll need that to get into the building.
The address is inside.
You can be there tomorrow morning.
And please dress accordingly,
in respect for the dead.
Oh yeah, right.
See you tomorrow, Jeeves.
It's Chester.
(door closing)
(dark music)
(footsteps)
Hey, you got an interview or something?
I got something cooking, okay?
Okay.
Do you want some coffee?
No, I'm good.
Hey so, what was the name of that,
that foster home that you grew up in?
St. Mary's.
Right, right, right, right, yeah.
So have you ever heard of a guy named
Maurice David Hartnell?
Isn't he the car dealership guy?
Yeah, yeah, that's what I said.
What's with all the weird questions?
Oh, nothing, nothing.
But I gotta go.
I'm gonna be late.
All right, kill it girl.
(ominous music)
(doors creaking)
Miss Brownstone, glad you could make it.
Yep.
That's me.
Well, well, well,
I guess if you're watching this,
it took us too long to find ya.
Ran out of time, I guess.
You are my only granddaughter.
My only daughter, Heather.
She was just like her grandmother,
all ashamed of her wealth.
Heck, I never should have married her mother,
but she had a pair of tatas on her like, woowee.
Well, you know what I mean?
Anyway, your mother, Heather,
she up and ran off at 18 with some
rock band, I don't know, pinata progress,
or pachanga progress, something like that.
I dunno.
She comes back five months later, pregnant.
I was furious with her.
You see, your grandmother,
she died of a broken heart when she did that.
Oh my poor Betty Jean.
Hell, I'm probably laying right next to her as we speak.
Your mother died when you were born,
complications due to child delivery.
Heck, I couldn't raise a child, I had an empire to build.
What an asshole.
(Chester clearing his throat)
Found the best adoption agency I could find
and put you with a good family,
so that you could be away from the money.
Your mother would've wanted that.
At least I think that's what she would've wanted.
Well, now that you are older, (dark piano music)
It's up to you to decide if you want this life of wealth.
Chester here will go over the specifics.
(dark music)
Now you know the truth.
You are a Hartnell, Ryan,
in poverty or in wealth.
Chester here will go over the specifics.
Carry on my granddaughter.
(Maurice coughing)
Chester, is that what you wanted?
What, you giving me homework?
Oh, you just need to sign the paperwork right here
to receive your inheritance.
Inheritance?
How much?
Well, if you look in section four here,
on this page, it says that.
Yeah, yeah. How much Jeeves?
Just north of $5 billion, of course.
That includes the the house in Catalina,
Beach house in the Key West,
properties in Dubai, London, Tokyo,
cars, yachts, vistas.
Very well.
And now to go over the situation with your businesses.
Yeah, we'll get to that in a second.
But right now I'm gonna need 10 million in cash.
I just wanna take some time and just let it all soak in,
you know, center myself.
Have a car pick me up downstairs.
What kind would you like?
Mm.
Something with some muscle.
As you wish.
(rock music)
(car revving)
(rock music)
(car revving)
(both panting)
Oh my,
oh my God.
Yes.
Yeah, baby.
I can't believe we're rich.
We?
Yeah, we.
I'm just playing, babe.
God, it made my skin crawl
that you were with Ryan and not me.
What were you thinking?
Okay, you gotta calm down.
Besides, what's it to you?
It's not like you're gonna stick around after tonight.
Babe, you and me are taking this money
and we're disappearing.
Ryan will never know.
You are so bad.
That's what I love about you.
(knocking on door)
I'm sorry to bother you.
Do you have any change for some food?
Dude, no. Scram.
You know, bad things happen to good people.
Even worse things happen to bad people.
Sorry to bother y'all, you have a good night.
Okay?
- What the fuck? - Yeah, whatever.
Where were we?
We don't have any change.
Excuse me ma'am, can you help us? We need a ride home.
That's a no. I'm busy here, beat it.
We have a curfew.
Aw, come on babe. Let's help 'em out.
No way. Those kids are creepy as hell.
Babe.
We were young once.
Come on.
Ugh.
All right, fine.
Get in ya little punks.
(eerie music)
(door closing)
(eerie music)
(eerie music continues)
(kid growling)
(eerie music)
It just goes to show you never know
what life has in store for you.
(loud banging)
I think your doorbell's broken.
I'll give you a hand.
She's gonna give that pizza boy more than just a hand.
Hey, yeah.
Hey.
Brenda, get the pizza.
I'll take care of the tip.
All right, take care of him.
Ladies, pizza in the building.
(door closing)
No, not that way. Kids' room.
Pizza's in the building.
(all laughing)
Oh, pineapple.
With anchovy.
You guys are truly disgusting, you know that?
Like gross.
Oh, well.
(ominous music)
(ominous music continues)
(high-tension music)
(dark music)
If Tori doesn't come back soon
there isn't gonna be any pizza left.
I'm very sure she's getting enough help.
I mean, did you see show he just
sprung out of the couch when that pizza guy came by?
Guess he was cute.
Kind of hot.
He was like, Michael B. Jordan from Black Panther, hot.
Mm. Yeah.
(all laughing)
Okay, look,
we all know that you're a dedicated mother
and very successful at your job,
but you know, sometimes
you've gotta take care of yourself, you know?
Well, yeah like,
really... Take care.
Take care of yourself.
You know what we mean?
Put this on.
I don't do condoms.
I don't fuck guys that don't wear condoms.
(eerie music)
(high-tension music)
(victim whimpering)
(high-tension music)
(victim screams stifled)
(Lily stabbing)
Come on, Brenda.
Relax, take a breath.
Don't shut down on us now.
It's been a year and a half.
- Totally. - And you deserve to be happy,
after that asshole left you and your kids.
Yeah, and now you're doing better than ever.
Yeah, it's, it's time
to find someone.
Yeah I mean, you can do what Tori does
and just grab a man by the shirt collar
and fuck him before he can say no.
I used to want him to come back to us, to me,
but after a while, I realized I didn't want him
to come back to be with us.
I want him to come back to explain why he left.
Yeah, oh honey.
Sometimes we're just not meant to know.
I know, but the more time that passed,
the more I just, it didn't make sense.
Yeah, but we can make sense out of randomness
if you stare at it long enough.
Thank you for being there for me, for being a good friend.
Both of you.
Yeah, you got it girl.
Yeah, we got you.
(soft music)
(all laughing)
(soft music)
(eerie music)
(eerie music continues)
(camera clicking)
Okay, I think I'm ready for the next story.
Well, you don't, you don't wanna wait for Tori?
That girl's probably all pinned down by now.
[Brenda] Who's got the next one?
Okay, so
constituents,
donors,
deadlines.
These are the things that politicians do.
But, why do they do it?
To make a change, to serve people.
Bullshit.
They do it to serve a higher power.
(uptempo music)
So, Mr. Watson, tell us what your agenda is
if you win the election for governor.
Well Dolores, as you may well know,
I have a real problem with the increased level of immigrants
that are taking our jobs, our resources, our tax money.
This isn't right.
We need to build a literal,
as well as an ideological barrier
to separate ourselves from the problems of the south
that are flooding our borders,
our schools, our neighborhoods.
You mentioned an ideological barrier.
So you would want to do more
than just put up a physical obstruction?
Well, of course darling.
That's what separates me from my opponents.
I am willing to go the extra mile
for my constituents, my beliefs.
Now let me elaborate on what I mean
by an ideological barrier.
We have a way of life.
I hate that side of my face.
Dolores Day always has to be on the right side of everyone.
These folks are nothing more than parasites.
We need to send them back to their country.
Kimmy dear, could you get my blue and red tie
and put it in my travel bag?
I already did, David.
You've asked me like a million times.
Pack my blue socks, pack my tie.
You know those blue socks, they're so ragged.
I have half a mind to throw them away.
Shut your fucking mouth.
Marcus gave me those on our first fundraising gala.
They're good luck.
Yeah, whatever.
Oh God, here we go.
You know, I'm a woman in her mid-30s with no kids.
But how can you, Kim,
if your husband is ramming it up somebody else's ass?
You can't.
You knew what you were getting involved with
the first day we got married.
We haven't fucked in over two years.
Ever since you met Marcus, you've been nothing but-
Get a vibrator.
Job done.
(dark music)
Asshole.
You know, I'd love to stay for this little pity party,
but my limo's here.
Cannot miss my flight to Dallas.
Toodles.
(eerie music)
Oh, it's been so long since I've had one of these.
You know, I dream about these cookies, right?
Where did you get the recipe?
Oh, it's my own recipe.
It makes me seem wholesome and American,
whatever the fuck that means.
It's just campaign bullshit.
Girl, you are a dying breed.
I don't know what I would do without my personal chef.
He feeds me in more ways than a one.
Oh Alejandro.
Wait,
Carrie!
What?
If Philip can have his little sex romp with the maid,
then I'm having mine.
Men do it all the time. Why can't we?
Besides, it's actually helped our relationship.
We both have our needs fulfilled
and we hardly ever argue anymore.
You really should try it.
I don't know.
Well, you're not gonna get laid with that attitude,
but David sure is.
Wait, how did you know?
One of the makeup girls at Eagle News
is best friends with my hairstylist.
Apparently she saw David getting a little cuddly
with one of the strapping young males
in his dressing room.
God.
You didn't know?
Oh no, I knew, It's just that,
you can't.
Girl, it's okay. Your secret is safe with me.
I knew David was a queen for about a year,
I just didn't wanna be up in your business.
Just keep bribing me with these cookies,
that'll keep my mouth shut.
I am so embarrassed.
No need to be embarrassed.
It's just time you get yours.
(door closing)
Maria, so nice of you to grace us with your presence.
I'm so sorry Miss Kim.
The bus was running late.
It won't happen again.
You're damn right it won't happen again,
because if it does not only will I fire your ass,
I'll get you sent back to Mexico.
It's Honduras, Miss Kim.
Pluto, Mexico, whatever.
Just get your ass to work.
Start with the bedroom.
Yes, Miss Kim. Yes, Miss Kim.
Now that is what I'm talking about.
Oh my God, look at that bulge, hm.
He's got a very spicy jalapeño down there.
Who is he?
I don't know, I've never seen him before.
I thought you did all the hiring.
I do.
Well girl, you need to handle your business.
This plate of cookies is gonna come with me though.
You wanted to see me, Miss Kim?
Yes, Jose. Who's that man right over there?
That's, that's Joaquin.
I had to find a replacement for Mateo.
He got deported last Friday.
Oh, that's a pity.
Well have him see me.
That way I can check him out.
I mean, talk to him.
Yes, Miss Kim.
(eerie music)
(door closing)
You want me to see me, Miss Kim?
(romantic music)
Yes.
Come over here, Joaquin is it?
Yes ma'am.
You know I have to be thorough
now that my husband is running for office.
Do you know my husband?
No, Senora.
He's a politician.
A very powerful man. Do you understand?
Yes, ma'am.
Very good, Joaquin.
(tense music)
Dios mio.
El diablo.
Curse Miss Kim, Curse.
Curse.
Oh, well how do you like that?
Just from sat on the job.
Well, I'd better keep you on board,
considering how many people we're losing around here.
I thank you, Miss Kim.
Oh wait, Joaquin?
(eerie music)
Is there something wrong, Miss Kim?
(eerie music)
Shh.
(eerie music)
(eerie music continues)
(soft music)
(leaf blowing running)
(eerie music)
(gun firing)
(Kim screaming)
Oh my God, what have you done?
Oh.
At least I don't have to kill Jose.
Who put this idea in your head, huh?
That dumb bitch, Carrie?
Always fucking the help.
Yeah, I need a stain removed.
Yeah, account viper hammer,
alpha location.
Go to the bathroom, clean your ass up.
I can barely fucking look at you.
(eerie music)
(eerie music continues)
(ominous music)
(Kim gasping)
(high-tension music)
(Kim screaming)
(high-tension music continues)
(Kim screaming)
(creature growling)
(David sighing)
Fucking stone cutters will never let me live this one down.
Look, who just got his carpet cleaner badge,
used it on his wife's fucking wet back.
(David gulping)
Kim?
What the fuck are you?
I'm you, from now on.
(neck snapping)
Are you still with me?
(David gasping)
Let me just pitch you on the new direction
that I'm gonna take our career.
Oh, in seven minutes you'll be dead,
and then it'll just be my career.
Now this is just a rough draft, so bear with me.
There's a huge political shift coming,
bigger than the New Deal.
This will bring about an end to this 241-year-old test.
The whole thing will be turned on its head.
(eerie piano music)
The ones at the top will be crushed by the meek.
Their buy-in is with the old system.
It will not save them.
(eerie music)
You know, I'm gonna have to do something about that face.
We can't have two Davids when the cleanup crew arrives.
Stephen F. Austin, kind of ironic.
(face smashing)
After falling into a political purgatory
for doing an about face on most of his platform,
David scraped and clawed his way
back into the political arena.
He pulled the political equivalent of a 7-10 split
by splitting both the Democratic and Republican vote,
drawing enough votes
to have him sitting here today as governor of Texas.
Thanks, it's great to be here.
Just, wow. What an absolute whirlwind.
So we saw how it unfolded.
What I want to ask you is why did you make,
what some say is one of the most career-shattering moves?
Well, when my wife took off to Mexico
and I realized she was having an affair,
I went to a really, really dark place.
And in times of darkness like that,
my mother would always go to the Bible,
and that's kind of what I did.
You're religious. That is no revelation.
Correct, but this time it was a little different.
- How so? - Well,
something about the experience
just brought me back to my childhood.
My mother would always read to me her favorite verses
and they were all about understanding and forgiveness.
And what we really need.
[Interviewer] Is love?
Well, I was gonna say Jesus, but they're the same.
(person whistling)
(eerie music)
I knew that world was cutthroat, but shit.
Story creeping you out?
No, this pizza's going right through me.
Are you okay?
No, I'm.
I need to go.
Proceed ladies.
Ew.
That girl cannot handle her pizza.
Cut her some slack, she's IBS.
Yeah. Irritable Bitch Syndrome.
[Brenda] Oh, you're mean.
That's so wrong.
Oh, this was a good idea. Thank you.
Yeah, you needed this.
So, are you ready for my story?
Oh, finally, the story master is up.
Too bad the girls are gonna miss it, but I can't wait.
In today's fast-paced world,
it's getting harder and harder to know what you want.
You know the, the fame and guitars
and the money,
the lights.
You really gotta know what you want before it's too late.
Hey, hey, hey.
What, what, what the fuck, Big D?
Talent only. You want tickets, go up front.
I'm I'm Ludwig, Bill Stinger's guitar tech.
I don't see no Bill Stinger.
We need to keep this area clear.
I love it.
I thought you'd be setting up already.
I, I got caught up right here.
Oh yeah. When's the album come out?
Oh, I, I don't know.
Hell yeah.
This one's cute.
You're not so, so, so bad yourself.
Oh, you're the stutterer.
I tell you what,
say my full name by the end of the night,
you can have whatever you want.
Brandy Michelle Miller.
I bet you 200 bucks he can't do it.
[Brandy] Brandy.
All right, I'll take that bet.
[Brandy] Perfect.
Say it.
Brandy
Michelle.
M- mi-mi-
Oh, come on.
Give me my money.
I told you that's a st-st-st-stuttering fool.
Y'all wrong with that.
All bullshit aside though,
I got Becky Jackson comin' in and to see yours truly.
So I need that producer magic
to make sure everything goes through.
Where?
At Renegade Studios.
All right, have Stony send me the details.
I'll do that.
Becky Jackson's coming in? I could write it.
I got you. I got you.
That song that I... Let me worry about
what Becky Jackson listens to.
Okay, what I need you to do
is to write them hellfire lyrics, and leave the rest to me.
Yo Stinger.
I got the interview with Hellhound Music after the show.
With hot Henrietta?
Hell yeah.
That girl got booty.
That should be your deal.
It's your lyrics, your soul on that music.
I, I I know,
I, I I, I, I
I can't sing.
I know. Come on, let's go.
(soft music in venue)
(audience applauding and cheering)
(audience clapping in rhythm)
(uptempo music in venue)
Oo!
What's up?
Hell no. Go away, Mark.
Come on, Tye. Let me explain.
I can't believe you're bringing this drama to my job.
(door closing)
Listen, I was taking a shower.
We didn't have no clean towels.
I was going to our room.
Your sister, she was on the couch and,
and I mean, you know, things happened.
Come on baby, you know I love you.
[Tye] No.
Tye.
You know how I get about you?
- No. - Baby.
Stop, you're hurting me.
Hey.
(dramatic music)
Hey, get your stuttering ass back.
Tye, get in the car.
Get in the car.
Please don't hurt him.
Don't worry.
Not gonna hurt the boy over here.
Just gonna have a little conversation.
You trying to push up on my girl.
Nah, you know what?
I trust you.
You know why?
I see you around Tye again,
I'm gonna take this, I'm gonna shove it up your ass.
I'm gonna pull this trigger till the clip's done.
You understand me?
See you later.
Retard.
(dramatic music)
(car alert beeping)
(car starting)
(traffic passing)
Woo wee.
Saw the whole thing. Wow.
Talk about getting punked out.
Who?
Who? Who?
What are you, what are you,
what are you?
Is there an owl around here?
Sorry, man. I couldn't resist.
So you have some trouble with your tongue, huh?
Pardon me,
I'm Deja and you're Ludwig.
H-How did you, how did you know that?
You recently popped up on my radar, kid.
I think I can help you.
Think of me as an agent of sorts.
I do represent some individuals,
but mostly I'm a consultant, specializing in music.
The music business?
Yeah, I got my start representing blues musicians' butts.
And I've expanded outwards.
S-So you, you wanna represent me?
No, no, no, Ludwig.
What you need is a consultant.
Now, if you would like my services,
well, you gotta sign a lease.
(eerie music)
It was a gift. All my clients sign with it.
Boilerplate agreement.
For a fee, I'll be your consultant.
My goal is to help you reach your goal.
Now that does require you do what I say,
exactly how I say it.
Do you understand?
Exactly?
Yes. My work requires precision.
Like drummer with a beat.
(traffic passing)
Very good, Ludwig.
Now,
what will I be consulting with today?
Well,
I want to be a, a lead, lead singer, but I, I can't.
You sure?
All right, take this.
It's a gift for you to write your lyrics down in.
Go on, take it home.
Write a few songs. You'll need it for tomorrow.
How, how, how is this supposed to-
Do as I say.
(dark music)
(traffic passing)
Deja.
Electric car.
Now you see.
I love it. Never hear me coming.
Go home, write some songs in there.
[Person On TV 1] I just can't dance.
[Person On TV 2] Well, that's easy to fix.
I'll teach you.
[Person On TV 1] Hey (indistinct), can you dance?
[Person On TV 2] Can I dance?
Donny when the beat's right.
(knocking on door)
I just take off, take off.

You can blame Stony why we're late.
Yeah my bad, Sting.
I don't know what the hell's wrong with my phone.
Finally, let's get this rodeo started.

♪ OCB was a hell of a man (mumbling) ♪
(rock music continues)
Yo Stinger, you good?
All right, well let's run it from the top.
Okay.
That's, he doesn't usually do this.
(rock music)
♪ OCB was a hell of a man (stuttering) ♪
(rock music continues) (Stinger clearing throat)
Stony, really? What the fuck?
Is this some kind of sick joke?
I came here to hear some Texas fire,
and you bring me to this bullshit, really?
This is the last (muffled).

Oh boy.
You are one big bad deal, aren't you, huh?
You got management, kid?
I manage him.
Stony, you are one sly coyote.
I'm thinking, record in Dallas.
We'll reserve the Red Room and everything.
We are gonna take this kid to the top.
Come on.
Really?

(lyrics indistinct)
Ludwig, I haven't seen you in months.
Oh, it's been a while ain't it?
Who are your friends?
I guess they're my entourage, now.
(bartender laughing)
Dude, your voice.
- I know. - I mean the stutter.
I know.
Say, I was looking for Tye.
Do you know where she's at?
Oh,
I don't know how to say this, but Tye's dead.
She was killed by that punk, Mark.
The cops were called, domestic disturbance.
When they got there, she was already dead.
I'm so sorry, Ludwig.
They're saying he might get off with manslaughter.
(traffic passing)
I'm so sorry.
(traffic passing)
Huh? Did you just say something?
(sad music)
[Deja] Why so blue?
It's Tye.
She's, she's-
Killed?
I know. Sorry to hear that.
But Ludwig, it was part of something bigger
Like God and shit?
More like, and shit.
I never met anyone kind of like what you call God,
so can't speak too much on that.
You,
you're?
You were gonna say devil.
Your kind's limited understanding of reality is pitiful.
I mean, you guys can't even see the ultraviolet spectrum.
Look, Ludwig,
you were the deal.
(soft music)
I don't understand.
Don't understand?
Eh, neither do I.
I don't make the plans, I just follow 'em.
Plans?
Yeah, I'm middle ring on the totem pole.
I was instructed to give you what you wanted
and that's what I gave you.
Now, I'm moving up to top management.
I paid my dues.
So many killer perks in upper management.
Wait, you, you have to do what I want.
I want you to bring Tye back, bring her back.
I could bring someone back from the dead,
but that's not what you wanted when you signed.
(phone ringing)
Upper management, I gotta take this.
Gopher Deja.
Just sealed that right up.
On floor 5-D?
Yes, sir.
(eerie music)
(faint singing)
(audience applauding and cheering)
Yo.
Big bad deal.
Look.
(traffic passing)
(audience applauding and cheering)
So, when are you jumping back in the dating pool?
Because I know this guy, he's in real estate,
but he's kind of forward.
Here we go again.
What? I just want what's best for my friend.
And that's nice.
But I just wanna focus on Tanya, Sam and my job right now.
Okay, well consider this.
Have you ever thought maybe you're engulfing yourself
in your job and your kids
because you're hiding from the fact that
you're afraid to be abandoned and hurt again?
Well, that's a healthy initial response.
But you can't keep living this neglectful pattern.
You know, you,
you don't need that asshole.
Maybe you're right.
I don't need that.
I don't need that asshole.
(sighing) Thank you.
(sighing) It feels so good to hear you say that.
You know, when he
came into your life,
you were so absorbed in that relationship.
I mean, when I would call you to hang out with me,
you would only wanna come when I was buying your drinks
or I was paying for your meals.
Wait.
Yeah.
And that little pregnancy scare
that turned into that awful wedding.
If I hadn't found Roxy,
who knows where we'd be right now.
Found Roxy?
The woman Nathaniel cheated on me with?
Okay, I didn't mean it like, like that.
I found her for what, Alexus?
What the fuck?
For what? Seducing my husband, ruining my life?
Ruining your life?
Honey, you would've ruined your life
staying with that cheating asshole.
You set 'em up.
[Alexus] What? No.
Ever since Nathaniel came around, you've been different.
[Alexus] You're ridiculous.
And you were so rude to him.
And I see it now, 'cause when Nathaniel left me,
you were just so nice.
Too nice.
Honey, your man left you.
I was just trying to... Trying to what?
I was trying to help you.
That cheating son of a bitch
would've done it sooner or later.
All I did was shed some light on the situation.
You know,
you should be thanking me.
(dark music)
Oh.
Cindy, get your ass off-
