I don't think you should do this. A little late for that, Abe.

Okay, no, it's not.

Okay, let's just start over the two of us. With what?

We'll get by.

If we have a baby, do you know how expensive it is? Okay, I don't know the

exact prices of things.

Well, if we have a child, it is more expensive than you can possibly imagine.

Okay, well, maybe I'll have the baby, but I just won't keep it.

You want to give our child to somebody else?

Well, maybe another family can provide.

We can provide.

That's why I'm doing this.

No, Phil, please don't go. Just don't do this.

Can you remember what they did to your dad? You know how dangerous this is. You

don't like what they did to my dad?

Imagine what they're going to do to me if I don't get that money.

Trust me, if this goes off without a hitch, this will be the last time.

You promise?

I promise.

I knew it, though. We're busted.

No, we're not. We haven't done anything yet. No, we're going to go to jail.

Just listen to me, okay? Go outside.

Pretend like you're talking to me on the phone.

Just do it. Now.

No, don't tell me what to do. Listen, Ada, I'm scared, okay?

Please, just go out there and do this for our future.

Right now.

You think they'll like the new stuff?

Either way, my friend, I know you'll crush it, all right? You always do.

Thanks, Jake.

How's the crowd?

Check them out.

Perfect.

Listen, man, I can have security throw them out. No problem. They're not worth

it. I mean, it won't take much work to get rid of them. Yeah, I don't want her

to think I care enough even to have her thrown out.

She means nothing to me.

Um, excuse me for a second.

The bud's asleep? I just have to have a quick talk with somebody.

Okay. Is this what you want to do? Yeah. I'll be right back. I wouldn't miss it.

Sure.

Hey. What are you doing here?

Hello. I thought you went to Sacramento.

They canceled. Why?

I hate how we left things.

They care about you. I don't know why that's not coming through.

It's complicated.

Why?

Is there somebody else?

Is there something you want to tell me?

Now I'm gonna go play some music and forget she even exists.

All right, you do that go get a man. You're a monster

Thank you guys so much for coming tonight. We're just gonna kick it laid

back casual style here at the MK.

Should be fun.

So I'm gonna play some new material tonight and you guys are gonna be the

first to hear it.

This first one is called Counterfeit Love.

Why are you so nervous?

You don't want to be seen with me?

Not particularly, no. I mean, what if someone I know shows up?

We're not doing anything wrong.

Yeah, but I kind of get that feeling that you're always hatching up a plan to

do something wrong.

I don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about.

You must have a very cynical mind.

I like to keep my eyes open.

Yeah, and we're all thankful for that.

Because then we can take in those beautiful eyes.

You know, when...

Mothers warn their daughters about what dogs men can be.

I'll take your word for it.

Well, they weren't talking about all men.

They were just talking about you, Tyler.

Well, just tell me, is this about you and Max? No, okay, no.

It's about you and me.

So you're saying there's nothing going on with Max?

That's beside the point. Not to me.

It's not. I introduced you. Okay, you know, honestly, it's none of your

business. Because you and I, we're... We're finished.

So you're choosing a washed-up pop star over a washed-up doctor, huh? When you

put it that way, yeah. You don't care about me at all, do you?

Don, I care. It just... There's a side of you that really scares me.

I mean, you snap at me, and you have these explosions of anger, and sometimes

I just don't know who you are.

Obviously, you don't care about me the way I care about you. Don.

It's all right.

It's okay.

Sorry I wasted your time.

Okay, thank you guys so much for listening to that new music.

So I'm going to play more of that later. But right now, I'm going to go ahead and

get into an oldie.

So here's the deal. I need a little help on this one.

It's actually a duet.

So I'm going to need somebody to sing with.

Is Lauren Tate in the house?

Yeah, she's right here, Eddie.

A duet?

Yeah, come on. That'll be fun.

She looks like she's going to cry.

Is she even old enough to be in there?

Can I ask you a serious question?

Yeah, you can ask me anything you want.

Why have you kept with it?

Acting? Yeah. I mean, after everything you've been through in this town, why

not give up?

You don't give up on something you love.

Why? I mean, if it's not working.

Come on, you get it. You're married.

There must be ups and downs.

What do you know about that?

What are we talking about? Your career.

Oh, right.

You know what I admire the most?

Your determination. I mean, some might even call it obsession.

I don't like that word. It makes me sound crazy.

Well, out of all the people in the world deciding you're the one that's going to

be a movie star, that is a little crazy, isn't it?

I guess you're right.

I guess I'm a little crazy.

How much have you seen crazy in my life these days?

We never would have met.

We never would have had a chance.

If there was no music, I probably would have left.

And then we would have never danced if there was no music. If there was no

music, if there was no music.

If there was no music, music, music.

If there was no music, if there was no music. If there was no music, music,

music. You okay?

Yeah, who cares? This is so stupid.

Totally. Everyone here seems to love it. But they're all idiots. The crowd can't

react like...

Listen up, listen up right here. The soundtracks would disappear.

Bruno couldn't catch a grenade.

Radio wouldn't know what to play.

We never would have met.

We never would have had a chance.

If there was no music.

I probably would have left.

And then we would have never danced.

If there was no music.

If there was no music. If there was no music.

Listen up, listen up, come on. The DJ's be out of job.

How would you ever get your fitness on if the music's gone? We'd be so lost.

Listen up, listen up to this.

There'd be no reason to pump your fist.

Pump your fist. Pump your fist.

Anthem's the mighty synth.

We never would've met.

We never would've had a chance.

If there was no music.

I probably would've laughed.

And then we wouldn't ever get it.

If there was no music

You guys want to hear her sing another song?

Yes!

Hey, Detective Connolly, this is Gus Sanders.

Are you still following Phil?

Okay.

Thank you. Yeah, keep me posted.

Well?

He, uh... He's concerned that Phil let him on a wild goose chase.

Phil's lying to the police now, too? I'm not sure, honey. All I know is that

Conley was staking out the warehouse and they had a cop that was watching the

motel. The cops saw Adriana leave, but thinks that Phil gave him the slip.

What do we do?

I'm gonna go after him. We'll find him.

Don't. I don't want you putting yourself in danger, okay? That's the last thing

we need. What other choice do we have?

Just let the police handle this. They can deal with it. Clearly they can't,

honey.

I will be fine.

I promise.

Okay, I've got to do this for our son.

Tell me everything.

Are you looking for my dad?

No, Adriana, I'm not looking for your dad. I'm looking for you.

Me? Um, why?

Because I'm worried about my son, all right?

Yeah, join the club.

If by that you mean that you're worried about him too, that's good.

Yeah, I am.

Why, did he do something?

Tell me where he is, Adriana, and tell me what he is up to right now.

I have no idea where he is. Stop lying.

All right, I know that you two were at the motel together.

Yeah, how do you know that? It does not matter how I know, all right? But I know

for a fact that you know where he is, and I can tell that you're lying.

You barely know me. I know that you care about Phil.

And I know that you don't want to see him hurt, which is why I'm coming to you

for help. Tell me where he is.

I don't know.

Do you know that he could get killed if you do not tell me this?

Do you understand that?

I will take care of him.

You promised this is just to help him. All my life.

He's ripping off my dad's clinic again.

What?

He doesn't know how else to get out of this situation.

What situation?

You know, with Colorado, the guys that hurt you. I don't know. You have to ask

Phil. I will.

I'm freaking out that something is going to go wrong.

Can you stop him?

But you're looking through me in the same room A smile away feels miles from

where you are Might as well be on Mars

Might as well be on Mars

Might as well be

Volentate, everyone.

Volentate, coming to a record store near you very soon.

Chelsea. All right, so I'm going to go ahead and play a new song that I'm

recording for my new album.

This one is called One Day at a Time.

They say two wrongs are never right, but nothing's final.

A thousand thoughts, a million fears, and still a smile.

When you run too fast, you never see the colors of

every...

so great.

It felt good, but you, your song was incredible and you killed it during the

duet. I was dying.

How long have you been planning that? It was spontaneous.

That was not spontaneous. It was. I'm telling you, get me up on that stage and

crazy things can happen. I almost ran right off that stage. That would have

been spontaneous. I'm glad you didn't because the crowd loved you. You were

definitely the high point of the evening. Stop. Everybody was here to see

you.

I feel like no one liked my set.

What do you think?

I think that anybody who felt that way wasn't paying attention.

I mean, the songs were heartfelt and pure, and I loved every second of it.

Well, at least I have one fan left, and that's my girlfriend.

Did you just... What did you just say?

What did I...

Have one fan left?

No, no, no. Did you just use the G word? I don't... We gotta go check out your

adoring fans, right? No, but seriously, did you just say that? Am I hearing

things?

I'm a huge fan, Eddie.

I appreciate it. Love all your old stuff.

Thank you.

And you, you're gonna be huge.

You're gonna be like Kesha meets Taylor Swift's huge.

Oh, I don't know about that, but thank you.

So are you getting the feeling people don't like my new stuff?

No, they're just in awe.

Of you, yeah.

Bravo! What a performance.

That was a really great show, Eddie. I loved all the new stuff. It was really

different, which made it even better.

I feel like we created it together in a way.

Are you kidding? Did you hear the songs? Yeah, don't. This is exactly what she

wants.

Just here as a fan. I don't want to cause any trouble.

What are you doing here anyway? Isn't it a school night?

You're unbelievable.

The grown-ups are talking.

Don't talk to her like that. Hey, you don't talk to my girl like that.

I'm not your girl.

Really?

These tickets are expensive.

Uh, look, I'm sorry. We caused this scene.

Call you later?

Don't.

You know, I actually like your music, bro.

But this new stuff sucks.

All right?

Stick to what you do best.

Make little teen girls dance.

There's something in the air.

Now we're going to have a good time.

You were the star of the evening.

Oh, co-star. You were both the stars of tonight.

Can I just steal Lauren away for a second? Yeah, of course. I'm going to go

look for Pop and Jake.

Okay. Okay,

first of all, you were amazing tonight. The whole place is... Buzzy, I want you

to talk to the record label people again.

Right now? Yes, now. How does my hair look? Amazing.

Okay.

So?

So, you did great, man, as always. Congratulations.

We worked together too long for you to lie to me.

I mean, I honestly thought you performed the songs well.

I did too, but I don't think the fans did that or they just didn't like the

songs. I can't tell which.

No.

Jake. Tell me the buzz. Come on. Just lay it on me.

I'm serious. It's all good. All positive.

All right, look, just enjoy the night, and we'll talk tomorrow in detail.

All right?

Jackpot.

I'm going down to the devil's playground.

It was like a dream.

You deserve it.

You helped me so much. You helped so, so, so much. No, I'm just, I'm good at

recognizing talent.

Come on. Okay.

I'm so, so happy, happy fairy tale man.

You know what makes me happy?

Knowing you, let's see, you just made a cool new playlist on Spotify.

I did. I knew it.

But I'm also glad to see you out of your funk.

Funk is gone. I got no funk. No funk.

No peace.

Pulling out of funky town.

I have no idea what you're doing.

Ooh, ooh, that's one of those label executives. Come on.

Hi. Hey, how you doing? Hi, I'm Alyssa. I'm Lauren's best friend and personal

videographer. You're going to want to hear about this product I'm working on.

So what's the big story you got for me, Tyler?

Please don't tell me you're wasting my time.

I don't know. Maybe you think it'll be wasting your time to know who killed

Katie Duran.

That was really good. I know. You gotta be so proud.

And Eddie and Lauren both, they were on top of their games, I thought.

Yeah, no, absolutely.

I mean, I don't know how Eddie's gonna feel about the crowd's reaction, because

he's used to like, ah, something else.

But Lauren did fantastic.

Yeah. Oh, God, I'm never gonna forget that duet.

They're really great together, don't you think? They are. They certainly are.

Yeah, about together, I kind of have to tell you something.

I know we talked about not telling our kids, you know, about what happened.

But Eddie kind of got it out of me.

I told him.

Was there interrogation? Yeah. Was there torture involved?

I blurted it out, you know, because I was so happy and I had to tell someone

and he's my... Max!

I know. I know you're probably mad at me.

I have all reason to be mad, but... I told Lauren to.

But I did not blurt it out. I mean, she asked me a question. I mean, it's

stressing out. I know.

I mean, she really, she grilled me.

Right.

Yeah, she did.

You and I are exactly the same.

And it took me a little longer than an hour, you know, to get it out after we

agreed not to tell them. I mean, I had some restraints.

Yeah, me too. I had a restraint, you know. Maybe it's just a half hour or

maybe 15 minutes or something like that.

Before I went, hey, guess what, baby?

Okay, you and me should not be trusted with state secrets. No, no state secrets

here.

So what happened, Lauren? What did she say? Did she think it was weird?

She was in favor of it. Oh, yeah?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Yeah, she was. I mean, you know, I think she just knows what makes me happy.

She does?

Okay.

I mean, she thought it was weird when I was dating Don.

Why don't we keep talking about Don in the past tense? Did he get hit by a bus

when he left?

It doesn't matter. It's over.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that. No, you're not. No, I'm not. Yes, you are.

A little bit here. Oh, hi. Oh, sorry.

No, no, it's fine. Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah. It was a great show, by the way. Thank you, Nora. Yeah.

It was a good show. It was. Okay.

Okay.

Do you want something to drink?

Yes, please, after that.

After what?

That show.

It was bad.

You thought so?

They thought so, Pop.

Well, I thought it was good.

You can't really tell from stage.

I'm not an idiot.

Okay. I know you and Jake are both full of it. I agree Jake is full of it.

Me, I am the king of all honesty.

Okay. Well, the new stuff didn't go over so well.

We both know it, so just say it, Mr. Honesty.

Okay, so the important question here is, how did you feel about it? Did you like

it? Were you happy?

My God, Pop, stop evading.

Of course I was happy with it. I wrote it.

But I can't buy a million copies of my own album.

Actually, you can. Most stars, at some point, they do that. Pops, you're not

funny. Okay, fine. I'm not funny.

Hey, man, I liked it. Your songs were soulful.

They had a lot of passion.

If your fans don't get that at first, it's on them. Don't worry.

But what about the label?

You know, they didn't seem so complimentary. They could hardly contain

their own concern.

Record executives panic at everything.

They want you to keep turning in the same song over and over until the money

stops printing.

It's so sad.

It is.

You know when a record executive gets fired? When he takes a chance. That's

why they don't.

So what?

You saying these songs could be hits?

Hey, listen.

The best albums aren't always hits.

But I want to be happy with my music, and I want it to sell.

So fine. You want to be the Beatles. Get in line.

Well, I have a contract for my next album. And I can force them to release

it if I believe in my new material.

Do you?

I think I do.

And that's it.

Don't focus on the negative.

Be proud of yourself.

And keep making music like it's the first time.

Woo!

Fun night!

Oh, I can't believe I almost threw down with Eddie Duran.

Yeah, you almost showed him.

I would have. I have a black belt in pounding on pop stars.

Oh, whoa, are you planning on staying a while?

Oh, well, I can't drive myself home. I'm a little liquored up.

You know what? I should call you a cab.

Oh, whoa, Dylan.

Oh, come on.

Stop thinking about Eddie.

He's old news.

I'm new news.

I'm just not the first date kind of girl.

What about hand-holding?

Sure, yeah, we can hold hands.

And kissing.

No. No.

Okay, come on. Hey, what is the big deal? What's your problem, baby? I

wasn't even going to use tongue.

I like you, and I had a great time tonight. I'd love to see you again, but

I'm just, I'm not going to do anything with you tonight.

Not even a little grinding on the couch?

No, I love that couch.

All right.

Well, I can still make the last call to Crazy Girl, so I will see you around,

gorgeous. Oh, listen.

You ever want to make Eddie jealous?

Yeah. Call me.

I will do whatever you want. You are smoking.

Sorry about that. Bye.

You sure you don't want me to call you guys? Good.

Well, let me be the first to say that your instincts on Lauren were dead on.

You know, you saw it way before I did.

Well, I told you the second that I got here that I'm really good at discovering

new talent.

Yeah, you are.

Lauren's definitely going to make a name for herself, and you know what that

means.

I mean, it means that you just made a name for yourself and don't need me

anymore.

Is this your way of telling me that you're serious about me leaving the

company?

Well, I mean, you're not fired, but it's time for you to move on.

And listen, you'll land on your feet as quickly as you want to. I'll make some

calls for you.

You're a good guy.

So how are things in the home front? Is Tracy still upset?

Oh, yeah.

Well, she ended our friendship today after ten years, so I feel like a jerk.

Yeah, so do I.

You didn't do anything.

I didn't?

Listen, Tracy will calm down, all right? On both fronts, with me and you.

I've seen her get angry before. She holds grudges.

I know, but ultimately, she always gets over it.

We'll see.

A part of me hopes that she doesn't.

What?

Get over it.

Not here.

I know that I fought it, but she was right to be suspicious. I'm... I'm crazy

about you, Jake.

Just... Let me just say it now, because then I'll never get it out. I've

never... I've never felt this in sync with another guy.

It's too bad that you're married.

To your best friend.

Bye, Kelly.

Bye, Jake.

Come in.

Sorry, I don't mean to barge in here after all this time like this.

What is it?

Are you in trouble?

Do you need money?

No, I don't need money, Lisa.

And I'm not in trouble.

I'm doing great, actually.

That's such a relief.

Been clean two years.

27 months, actually.

You don't know how good that is for me to hear.

Thanks for saying that.

So I... got a visit from Melissa.

I know.

So you do?

And you approved?

I definitely didn't approve.

I didn't know it at the time.

I wasn't sure if I was ever going to see her again.

How did it make you feel?

Like seeing a part of me that's been missing for a long time.

She's my daughter.

I didn't tell her that, though.

I did.

What?

She knows everything now.

She should have known a long time ago. But that was your decision.

I was just going along with it, Lisa.

Out of respect.

Out of guilt, out of thinking she was much better off with you.

Well, now it's all in the open. Doesn't that feel better?

No, it feels... overwhelming.

I wish... I wish you hadn't sent her to me.

She found you.

On her own.

You led her.

Not on purpose.

So what happens now?

We haven't talked about any of this.

I'm still not ready.

For?

A daughter.

I thought you had a good time.

No, I did.

It was better than I could have hoped for.

That's the problem.

I'm not even sure I want to know what you mean by that. But I'll play along.

What do you mean, Mel?

I don't know. I just wonder...

If I'll ever do anything as interesting as Lauren did tonight.

What?

Singing a duet with an international superstar.

I mean, when will I ever come close to doing something like that?

Mel, you have no idea what the future holds for you.

But I know you.

And I know it's going to be pretty damn interesting.

You wouldn't have it any other way.

Yeah, but Adam, you're not listening to my question.

I'm asking when will this happen. I need an exact date and time. I can't be

waiting around for the future to provide me with interesting opportunities.

I want to know when I will do something as interesting as Lauren did on stage

with Eddie.

Maybe tonight.

Hello. Yes, I'm looking for the file right now. That's why I came all the way

back.

Yeah, and calm down. I'll call you when I have it.

Do you want something to drink?

Water or soda?

Do you have any gin?

What?

I'm kidding, Lisa.

Water sounds good, though.

You still have that same sense of humor, I see.

And you still have a complete lack of appreciation for it, I see.

No, it's not that.

It's just... You remind me of someone.

Melissa?

A month ago, I caught myself telling her...

Sarcasm is not an attractive quality in little girls.

Oh, my God.

You've become mom.

I know.

I know.

It was inevitable, I guess.

Well, was it?

I am starting to think you are who you are when you're born.

There's not much in the way of choice anymore.

Wow. And yet you criticize me for my choices.

Well, maybe I was wrong, but I did what I had to do to keep you from hurting

yourself or Melissa.

Yeah, if that's what you need to tell yourself.

Meaning? Meaning you didn't want me hurting you.

That's who you cared about when I was high. You cared about you.

You weren't there at my low point.

You weren't there when I'd gotten high.

I got behind the wheel with my own kid.

In the car, thinking I'd be fine, I could handle it.

You weren't there when I was throwing up, when my body is shaking all night,

my system screaming at me just to find more drugs.

That's all in the past now, though, right?

I live with it every day.

And it's still a struggle, but it got worse when Melissa showed up.

You know, being alone is easy.

Being here, seeing her, is hard.

I think about you every day.

Horrible thoughts, I'm sure.

Mostly.

Some good ones snuck in there, too.

I always wanted to be a mother to her.

Deep down, I always wanted to be her mother.

Give me a break dislike dislike dislike dislike Just

one

more day little girl

You have a big surprise coming for you.

You're going to go back to school and all your little teeny bopper friends are

going to see you for exactly what you really are.

To the best one song set in the history of the MK Club.

Don't forget about the duet.

The duet was smoking.

It was the only part of my show that had any kind of heat.

What? Why would you say that? I thought your scent was good. No, it felt really

good. But I was kind of surprised about the reaction.

No, it was great.

Yeah, yeah. People keep saying that, but nobody believes it. I do.

Well, thank you.

I know that you mean it, but you can't pretend that the crowd loved it.

I can and will pretend.

Come on.

I'm being serious.

Oh, Kate.

Did someone say something?

No. Read a critique or something?

No, I don't read my own press. Crazy.

And no one said anything besides Chloe's date.

Well, he's not exactly the sharpest tool in this shed. He's just a tool.

Yeah, exactly.

No, but really, truth time.

What do you think about the new songs?

I think that...

The ballads are complex and beautiful, and they make me feel amazing.

They're just nothing like that first sound that I fell in love with when I

was listening to your albums.

Is that good or bad?

I am always going to love everything that you sing, okay?

It's good if you think it's good. That's what being an artist is.

Well, thank you for getting me.

Thank you for letting me.

This is unexpected.

Is this a bad time? It is, actually.

Well, you're going to want to hear this.

I don't know what Dylan said. He was really hammered. No, I don't want to

talk about that.

What is it?

I want to talk to you about Eddie's mom, Katie Duran.

I know what happened.

I know everything.
