Fatal Fandom (2022) Movie Script
1
I know what's it like
to be the one
That people step right over
Yeah
Keep your focus on the light
don't be taken by the dark
Be a soldier
Yeah
I know life can be no fun
but I know your love
Taught me to fire
Yeah
Nothing will
ever hold us down
We keep climbing
till we get much higher
Yeah
Fear is coming over me
No more fear
I'm finally fear
My eyes wide open I can see
I'm not giving up giving up
This time I know
that I'm in love
This time I know
I'm not giving up
And cut! That is a wrap!
Oh, and, uh, crew,
I'm not paying overtime,
so get the hell out of here.
What? Oh, oh, did you want
to yell cut? Oh. Okay, here.
Tell your daddy that I said
you're welcome
for bringing you on here.
Dumb kid.
So, how was it?
- Juego.
- It was great.
Addison, so the-the choreography
for the chorus,
yeah, wasn't quite next level.
- Oh. Oh.
- But pretty damn close.
Nice job, ladies. And you...
Oh, what did we do
to deserve you, Eden Chase?
Yes.
Okay. Okay, okay.
It was a great first week.
Now let's try to remember
that we still have Maui
after the buzz party,
so let's try
not to destroy our livers
tonight, okay?
All right, I'll meet you
out back in ten.
Okay.
Please! Oh, I just... Please!
Fine.
Ede, baby girl.
Would you please
take a photo with Cheri?
She's been having starry eyes
for you all week,
and I'm about to give her
a black eye
if she asks me one more time.
- Sure. Happy to.
- Thank you.
Here.
One more.
- Perfect.
- Thank you so much!
I've been a fan since you
and Lee Vance were together.
Oh, oh, um, I shouldn't have
mentioned him.
Should I? I'm so sorry.
Oh, my gosh, I'm so stupid.
It's fine,
the tabloids won't let me forget
that chapter of my life, anyway.
Hey, you did a great job
on Dara for the video.
Yes! You beat me back to my 20s,
and for that, I love you.
Well, thank you.
It was an honor.
Have your purse, Ede.
Are you gonna change?
Yeah. Has anyone seen my phone?
Oh, uh...
- Uh, excuse me, Ms. Chase.
- Who?
- Hi. Is this yours?
- Oh.
I'm sorry, I was actually asked
to give it
directly to Ms. Chase.
- Oh.
- Thank you.
- Um...
- Uh, Jackson.
Studio security.
- Hm.
- Thank you, Jackson.
Great job out there.
I wasn't supposed to watch,
but it was, uh,
it was pretty hard to look away
sometimes.
I'm sorry. It's too much.
No, no.
It's very sweet. Thank you.
And, you know, in the future
if anyone tells you
you can't watch,
tell them I said you can.
Oh. Thank you, miss.
- Eden.
- Thank you, Eden.
Okay, guys, um, sorry
to interrupt. Get home safe.
- Thank you.
- Oh, we will.
- Thanks for stopping by.
- Security.
Whoo! Ai, Dios.
Eden, for a minute there,
I literally couldn't breathe.
If I had to breathe,
I would have gagged.
- I am gagged.
- Forget it, boys.
You're happily married,
and he is happily mine.
Oh, sorry, dear,
he was clearly into Ede.
Ede, no number? Seriously?
What?
- Oh, my God.
- All right, let's do this...
Oh.
- Where'd the car go?
- I don't know.
- I'm leaving with the boys.
- Ede, I'll ride with you.
Great.
See you guys back at the house.
- Bye. See ya.
- Okay. Bye.
Oh, there's...
Oh, there's the car, I see it.
- Oh. Okay.
- Yeah, it's coming. Yeah.
Okay.
Uh-oh. I know that look.
It's Christian.
He wants to see me.
Of course he does.
- Nobody move.
- Oh, oh, oh, my God.
- Not one reach.
- Okay.
I said, nobody move!
Put the phone down!
- Phone, lady!
- Okay. Okay.
Okay, okay. What do you want?
- You. Get in the car now.
- No.
- No, no.
- I said now!
- Like hell she will!
- Move it, lady.
You're taking her,
you're taking me.
Addison, stop. Okay, listen.
I will go with you, but please
just don't hurt anyone.
- Good. Move.
- Hey!
All right, now...
Oh, Jesus.
- Oh, my God.
- I'm gonna call for help.
- Are you okay? You're okay?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- That's all.
- Okay, thank you.
Did they find the guy?
No. They're still looking
for him.
How the hell did he get
on the backlot?
Richard was outside the gate,
distracted on his phone.
The kid held him up at gunpoint.
He's giving his statement now.
- Well, Richard's fired.
- What about us?
We gave our statement.
We're free to go.
Oh, but, Ozzie, they wanna
speak to you for a minute.
All right.
Um, you gonna be okay, sweetie?
Yeah, I'm fine, thank you.
Can anybody watch her tonight?
Yeah. There'll be a patrol car
at your house all night.
I'm gonna call you
first thing in the morning.
- Stay safe.
- Thanks. Thank you.
And I'll stay with you
tonight, too.
Okay. Thank you.
Come on, I'll drive you home.
Hey. Eden. Hi.
- Jackson. Are you okay?
- I'm fine. Are you okay?
I am so sorry about that.
Don't be sorry.
You saved my life.
You saved all our lives.
Thank you.
Yes, we really appreciate
you stepping in to help,
but we have to go now.
Yes, ma'am, understood.
Just my card, in case you ever
want some security detail
or anything, I have four years
of extensive training.
- Okay, we appreciate that.
- All right.
- Thank you.
- Goodnight.
I guess word is out
about the attack.
Yeah. It's been all over
the news since about 6 a.m.
Bet your publicist
is having a field day.
Yeah. And Christian
is totally freaked out.
He started texting me at 2 a.m.
when he found out.
- Hm.
- Barely got any sleep.
Well, here.
Perfect blend of green
goodies is the pick-up you need.
Thanks.
And thanks for staying
last night. I'm so sorry.
Why are you sorry?
Because he was after me,
and you could've gotten hurt
because of me.
Eden, stop. You always do that.
You, you blame yourself
for things other people do
that have nothing to do
with you.
It just doesn't seem fair.
Well, life's not fair.
All you can do is be true
to yourself and your art.
Yes, people listen to you,
and, yes, that comes
with a ton of responsibility.
But you know, what people choose
to do, that doesn't define you.
I just feel guilty.
You and Colette put your lives
on the line for me. I hate that.
Look, I have been with you
since you were
literally unknown.
And I'll continue to be here
for your last Vegas revue.
You've, seriously, you've
given me a life and a career.
And for that,
I can never repay you.
You're the best.
You know, you could skip
going into the studio today.
What if we were
to just stay here
and go for a dip in the pool?
Well, that sounds
like an excellent plan.
I'm gonna go get us bikinis.
Okay.
Christian. Jeez!
I used my old key.
If I had a knife,
you'd be shanked.
Why didn't you use the doorbell?
Well, you weren't responding
to my texts,
and I wasn't sure
if you'd answer the door.
So, well, here I am.
Are you okay?
They still haven't found him?
No, Colette says the cops think
he's probably long gone by now.
But they are gonna send someone
to watch the gate
for the time being.
Well, then I'm staying.
Christian,
you don't need to stay here.
I want to.
Look, I'm not ready
for you to stay over again yet.
Ede, can't we just
move on already?
Christian, you can't just
waltz back in here
because you suddenly have time.
Two months ago you were off
playing gigs God knows where.
I know I wasn't always there
when you needed me,
but you have to admit,
you pushed me away, too.
Every time that I stayed over,
you went right back
to Ms. Independent with, "Oh,
I think you should go home now."
I'm sorry.
And I do, I want us to grow.
But I just don't have the time
right now.
Ede, I'm not Lee,
and I'm not going anywhere.
And I know you're capable
of taking care of yourself,
but I just wanna be
in your life.
I will sleep on the couch
if you want.
Addison is staying here for now.
I will be fine.
Will you at least have dinner
with me? Friday night. Please?
I will think about it.
Okay.
Are you gonna go out to dinner
with Christian or not?
No, I don't know
if I'm ready to.
If you wait till you're ready,
it's never gonna happen.
- Oh! Crap. Sorry!
- Oh!
Oh. It's all good. I'll get it.
Sorry.
- Eden?
- Are you all right?
I just found bags
and a bottle back there,
like someone's been squatting
in the garden.
Maybe your gardener
was having lunch back there?
No, no, Jerry's on vacation,
and he swept up the garden
before he left.
Okay, well,
should we call the cops?
Addison, don't be so dramatic.
- What?
- I mean, yeah, what would I say?
"Hey, stalker
left some trash back here.
Can you dust these for prints?"
- Yeah.
- Eden.
You are way too
casual about your safety. I...
I know you're trying to
salvage as much of a normal life
as possible,
but you need better protection
than just a gate
and a good security system.
Okay, I, I can't stay
every night, you know?
Well, I'll stay.
Okay, you're right,
I'll call that security guard.
- See if he's available.
- Oh, yeah.
Maybe he can case the place
for a while,
at least until we know
that lunatic is gone.
- That guy was so sweet.
- Well, and so hot.
Okay. I'll give Colette a call,
maybe she can interview him.
I think I still have his card
somewhere.
I think that is,
that is a great plan.
- Yeah.
- Makes me feel better.
Wow.
Hey. Nice Tuney.
Oh, yeah. You can pick it up
if you want.
Uh, no. Priceless goods.
Thank you, though.
Hey, you want a lemonade
or a tea?
Uh, lemonade sounds great.
Please, have a seat, Mr. Reed.
Okay, so, we did
your background check
and you're clean,
your references are pristine.
So why don't you tell me
what's not on your record,
so I don't have to find out
from some private source?
Of course. Um, uh, what?
Like, what are you looking for?
Like, criminal activity?
Like, anything
you deem worthy of noting
before I consider hiring you
to protect
an international superstar.
Sure.
So I got busted buying booze
when I was 19 with a friend.
It was his idea, not mine,
I assure you.
Um, I mean,
it's really all I can think of.
No, parking tickets.
I get a lot of parking tickets.
The meters in my neighborhood
are...
Working on it.
Why did you decide to get into
private security detail?
Oh, I actually wanted
to do stunts in the movies,
but I was taking care
of my little sister
when she was in high school,
and so I had to get a job
and I started bouncing
at a club in San Diego.
I know, um,
that whole time, though,
I was taking
defensive-training classes,
combat classes to keep one foot
in that, in that stunt world.
But then the security detail
thing just took off
and, um... here I am.
Well...
I have been managing Ms. Chase
since she was barely an adult.
Mm. Mm-hmm.
And since she's family to me,
I need you
to understand something.
She's not just any client.
You do realize
who Eden Chase is?
Yes, ma'am.
Uh...
I think she's an ordinary person
who doesn't really understand
how extraordinary she is.
I think
that she probably still finds it
pretty weird when people
treat her differently,
because all she wants
is to be normal.
It's funny 'cause I think that's
what makes her so relatable
to her fans and, I mean, frankly
why so many people love her.
- Hi. Thank you.
- You're welcome.
That's great.
Okay.
So there's just one problem.
Eden Chase is not normal.
And your idyllic sentiments,
while sweet,
are naive
and could get her killed.
Look, if you wanna know
if I would kill for Ms. Chase...
the answer is yes.
Welcome to the team.
Thank you.
Okay, you are
not to step foot upstairs
unless Ms. Chase asks you to,
understood?
Ms. Chase calls the shots.
She has me on speed dial.
I'm less than five minutes away.
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
This is great.
My pleasure.
There are towels
on the top shelf of the cabinet
in the laundry room, if you need
anything else,
just give me a shout.
Thank you. You, too.
Hey, Eden.
You're safe with me.
I promise.
I prefer mine with salt.
Funny.
So do I. Have at it.
Thank you.
You always eat in the kitchen?
Dining room is too big for one.
Makes sense.
Better views, though.
Like the one from that balcony.
Right. I'm gonna go get dressed
for this studio meet.
That's great. I'll drive you.
Uh, actually, Eden,
I wanted to mention.
I carry a firearm.
I didn't know how you feel about
that. I do keep it concealed.
But it's really comes down
to how you feel.
It's fine. Uh, just keep it
locked up while you're here.
And don't use the wild parakeets
as target practice.
Can do. Lock it down.
Protect the parakeets.
- How is he doing?
- He seems great.
- He's really down to earth.
- Great.
Okay, I think Ozzie wants to ask
about Lee's new film.
I know, you don't wanna do it,
but I think
we should at least consider.
He did just produce
your best album.
Okay.
Eden, babe.
How are you feeling, huh?
I'm doing much better,
thank you.
Okay, that's amazing.
Okay, hey, hey, have a seat.
Here, have water. There you go.
So, ready to lay down
a classic eight-track
renewed and remixed
for Lee's big new film?
Um, as you recall, we already
passed on the opportunity
to provide a track
for Eden's ex's new film.
But happy to hear you out,
so, please...
Okay, so the execs called,
they just want
what's best for the film.
Now, we sent you the premise
that the studio sent us,
and we know
Reborn is perfect for a remix.
It-it never got the traction
that it deserved
when it was first released,
and it's still
one of the best tracks
on our first album.
Right, but doesn't it feel like
they just want it
for some sort
of publicity stunt?
Who cares? You don't have to go
to the premiere.
You don't have to see Lee,
y-you don't even
have to look at the damn movie
at all if you don't want to.
You just lay down
some fresh tracks,
and then ka-ching,
we all make a ton of money.
It's that simple. Hey, it'll be
like the rebirthing of Reborn.
Okay, we... Ozzie, we...
Oh, no, it's not that simple.
The song was controversial
at the time. It still is.
Do we even know if the label's
gonna say yes to this?
Mm-hmm, because the label
already said yes to me.
Craig's my boy. We were
just having dinner last week.
Look, we just wanna do
this gnarly-ass remix,
and then we'll crush
this whole thing.
Excuse me. Can I help you?
Um...
- I-I'll just stand here.
- Oh, okay.
No! Who the hell are you?
What're you doing in my meeting?
This is Eden's
new security detail.
They still haven't caught the
guy, she needs somebody around
full-time to keep her safe.
Okay, but still, why do you
think you have the right
to walk into my meeting? Go.
Actually, his name is Jackson,
and I would like
for him to stay.
So, Jackson, please,
you can stay.
Look, Ozzie, it's not that
I don't appreciate the offer.
I just think it's kinda weird
to record a song for a movie
my ex is starring in, you know?
Can I just have a little bit
longer to think about it?
Well, if by little bit
you mean Friday,
because we have to record this
by Monday.
Otherwise I've got to get
a bad replacement
because I've already made
a commitment to these bozos
to help them get a song now.
Okay, fine.
You know, thank you, Ozzie.
We appreciate you and
everything you've done for us.
We're gonna talk about it
and we'll let you know.
Well, by the way,
just so you know,
in my 26 years in business,
nobody's ever made me go
to my second choice.
Hope you're not the first.
Thank you, Ozzie.
We'll let you know.
Mm.
Okay. Take a day or two
and let me know.
- I'll support you either way.
- Thanks, Colette.
So where to next?
You know, I'd like to stop
by that little market
in Brentwood?
I'm in the mood to make tacos.
You can go to a grocery store
without being mauled by fans?
No, but you can.
Right.
You wanna chop up some of that
jalapeo, throw it in here?
You want some in your meat?
I'm from Texas.
I can take the heat.
Ah, I see.
Where the, uh, Taco Tuesday
was originated, I'm guessing?
Sadly,
I think that was in Jersey,
but we did perfect the Tin Texas.
Right.
- Okay, is that enough?
- Oh, yeah. Beautiful.
Okay, all the fixings
are good to go.
I don't know about you,
but I need another margarita.
So long as the boss is okay
with her bodyguard
drinking on the job.
It's better
than the alternative.
Me drinking alone.
Dinner's ready!
Let's eat.
Mm.
Taco Tuesday,
Texans for the win.
Thank you, now, I gotta say,
this is admittedly
my first time
having dinner with a client,
so it's a little strange to me.
Maybe you've never had a client
like me.
I am a Tennessee girl,
we're known to be very nice
like you Texan folk.
So, uh,
makes me a little curious.
You're obviously okay with me
stealing a grapefruit,
occasionally
eating in your presence.
But we haven't talked
any house rules yet.
I just wanna make sure I'm not
overstepping while I'm here.
Hm, I've never had anyone
live here before
except for friends in and out.
But I'm pretty easygoing.
What do you wanna know?
Well, I mean,
I did see that gym downstairs.
Ah, yes.
I'm normally down there
around 8:00 every morning,
unless I go to a spin class.
You're welcome to use it as long
as you wipe everything down.
Sounds great. Thank you.
You can use the pool,
watch the TV,
use the computer, whatever.
Really?
That's amazing. Thank you.
Okay, anything
you don't want me to do?
I am a little weird
about my laundry.
So if you ever notice that
I've left clothes in the dryer,
just remind me.
I really don't like people
touching my clothes.
- Yeah.
- Not even the maids.
Sure. Hey.
Hands off the laundry.
Copy that. Can do.
So you living alone.
Where are your parents?
You mean you don't already know?
What?
Wow, sorry,
that was super arrogant
assuming that everyone knows
about my personal life.
No, hey, don't get me wrong.
I mean, who doesn't know
the lyrics to Soul Reborn?
You know, I think my sister
actually played that song
every day for a year.
Well, it's actually
just called Reborn.
But thank you.
That's very sweet.
I mean, the truth is,
I don't follow the fluff.
I don't know anything
about your personal life
aside from you dating Lee Vance
and then that, um,
musician Colin, uh...
Christian.
Christian Cruz. That's it.
I was way off.
Anyway,
yes, I am close to my parents.
They retired in Mexico, so
these days if I wanna see them
other than on FaceTime,
I have to go down to them.
They are very attached
to their oceanfront view.
Which I bet you bought for them,
didn't you?
I mean, yes,
they had me later in life
when they were kinda
set in their ways.
So I figured
getting them out of my business
was a wise investment.
Sure.
These days
I really just miss them.
All right.
I think you need another one.
My turn.
Are you not having
another one, too?
No. No, just water for me.
I still got to do
my perimeter check.
- Here you go. Yeah.
- Thank you.
Okay. So what about
your family, then?
My family? Yeah, wow.
Uh, well, let's see here.
My mom retired to her grave
when I was 26 years old.
Yeah, sure wish it was Mexico.
But I mean, the view's better
from the sky anyway, right?
- Jackson, I'm so sorry.
- No.
No, don't be. She was sick.
My dad, I...
Yeah, who the hell knows
where he is.
We stopped speaking to him
shortly after my mom
had my sister.
Your sister,
are you close to her?
Yes. Yes, we were close.
Yeah, she was my, uh,
she was my little everything.
She took her own life
five years ago when she was 19.
I wasn't a good kid growing up.
I got in trouble a lot,
pissed my dad off a lot.
He was strict, military strict,
you know?
Around ten,
my mom has my baby sister,
and it wasn't planned,
and dad wasn't thrilled,
so he took off back to Texas.
Yeah.
You know, growing up,
all Tess wanted
was a relationship with my dad,
but he just wouldn't
give it to her, wouldn't do it.
So naturally she relied on me
and my mom for everything.
This time my mom gets sick.
Tess is 14 years old,
she meets this kid,
this prick kid
named Mike Miracle.
Yeah. That was his real name.
Little son of a bitch.
My mom dies,
Tess doesn't really ever
recover from that.
And at that same time,
this kid, he dumps her,
he breaks up with her
for another girl,
and that, that was it.
Mm, oh...
- I'm sorry.
- No.
No, thank you.
Means a lot.
You know
what Tess never stopped loving?
Eden Chase. Yeah, it's true.
She played your music so much.
Oh, my God!
Oh, she had to be
your biggest fan.
You know, along the way,
I think, uh,
maybe, kinda sort of made me
a fan, too.
Well, considering
that you saved my life,
your Taco Tuesday skills,
margarita-mixing skills,
I'm a fan, too.
Thank you.
And thanks for hearing me out. I
don't talk about Tess very much.
And, uh, yeah, I don't know,
I just felt safe
sharing that with you.
Hope I didn't cross any lines.
I think you just blurred them...
which in this case is okay.
- Hey.
- Hi.
Hi. Um...
Yeah, eight o'clock's your time
in the gym, isn't it?
- It's okay.
- I am so sorry.
- Let me get out of your way.
- Oh.
No, it's fine. I'm going
to a dance class in Brentwood.
Okay. Let me get dressed
and I'll take you.
No, no, don't worry about it.
They have security.
It's a private gym.
Addison's coming to pick me up.
We should be totally safe.
- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.
See you in a few.
Ice ice ice
Ice ice ice
Ice ice ice
I'm an ice queen
I'm an ice queen

Yeah my wrist is frozen

Everybody knows it
I'm an ice queen
Yeah my neck is frozen

Everybody knows it
I'm an ice queen

Everybody knows it
Everyone says diamonds

So I guess
Tiffany is my bestie
See I'm good on my own
I don't need no man
But I got a lot of them
all around me
Love me hate me
then I'm gonna...
So, how's the new bodyguard?
- What's his name again?
- Jackson.
And, yeah,
he's a really nice guy.
It's been kinda weird
having him there, but safe, too.
So that's it?
He just moved in
and you have a hot roomie now?
I guess. It's been nice
having him there.
We even had dinner together
last night.
- Mm.
- Talking to him is refreshing.
In what way?
I don't know. He's just honest.
He's got this kind
of Southern charm.
And not talking about
the industry all night
was really nice.
Hm. Okay.
Okay, what was that?
I-I don't know.
It seems like you like him.
What? No.
He's a literal employee.
- That would be a disaster.
- Okay.
Anyway, I'm having dinner
with Christian now on Friday.
- Oh, really? You caved?
- Mm.
Well, it's about time.
You so need to get laid.
Hi, I'm meeting Christian Cruz.
Oh.
Looks like you have
a stalker fan club over there.
Ah. You might have
to remove them forcibly.
They look dangerous.
- Hey.
- Eden. Hey.
Christian, this is Jackson,
my personal security detail.
Your bodyguard? Wow.
Sounds official.
- Nice to meet you, Jack.
- Nice to meet you, Chris.
Um, my name is Christian.
Ah, my name's Jackson.
Okay. Jackson, if you wanna,
I don't know, wait at the bar?
You can order what you want
and we'll put it on our bill.
Sounds great. Thank you.
You guys have a great dinner.
Just holler if you need me.
The music video? How long
do you guys have of filming?
- Three days in Maui.
- Maui, huh?
We were supposed to go there
together, as I recall.
We were. You just never took me.
Will you invite me now?
I don't know.
I'll think about it.
But if I remember correctly,
you don't really enjoy
being around my work events.
Ouch. I told you I was sorry
for missing your Grammy party.
Quite a few times,
if I remember correctly.
You did.
I just never forgave you.
So tell me about
this new security detail, Jack.
Jackson.
He's a really nice guy.
He's staying in the east wing
while they're trying to find
the guy who attacked me
on the backlot.
- I feel safer with him there.
- He's staying inside your house?
In the east wing.
How do you feel
you can trust him?
And since when
do you trust anyone?
Since he saved my life
that night.
I need someone who can be there
for me all the time,
not just when it works
for his schedule.
I thought we talked about this.
I thought
we were starting over now.
I'm sorry.
Cute seeing you
kind of jealous, though.
Jealous? Of a bodyguard?
- Don't think so.
- It's amazing.
The best part is
she's an even better person.
Crazy. Hey, guys.
- How was dinner?
- It was lovely.
Excuse me, can we close his tab?
It's the least I can do for you
for driving her here and all.
I see you made some new friends.
Yes, thanks to you.
Kevin and Katey here are
your biggest fans, apparently.
They'd love a selfie
if you don't mind.
Of course. My pleasure. Hi.
That considered safe, man?
Letting her get
so close to them?
Kevin Jamison and Katey Yates.
Already ran background checks
on both
while we were enjoying
some overpriced calamari.
See that?
Two steps ahead.
Have a great night.
I didn't know
That this was real
I was all in my mind
Trying so hard not to feel
Going in circles
love was my hurdle
But I changed my view
since I found you
Never knew
I was capable of love
But you made me see
right through
Maybe this is a mistake.
Maybe we should call it a night.
Sober up.
It's fine, really.
I'll go.
Okay. Sorry.
- Goodnight.
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.
All right. Here we go.
- Wow.
- Rise and shine.
- Look at this.
- What?
"Who is Eden's
sexy new security?" No.
Hey, look at the bright side.
Someone was able to pay
their rent with that photo.
- That's a good point. Cheers.
- Oh. Cheers.
Did you hear that?
Mm-hmm.
Probably your pool guy.
Yeah, I saw him out back
earlier today.
- Okay. Thank God.
- Yeah.
So, a-admittedly, I have seen
some footprints here...
in the garden,
when I first arrived.
And I know you told me your
gardener's out of town, right?
You saw footprints outside
and you didn't think to tell me?
Yeah. You're right, I'm sorry.
I-I just...
I mean, you were busy.
And this isn't an excuse,
I wanted you to be...
to stay focused.
Do you think it's him?
I honestly don't know.
Can I ask you a question?
Christian. Do you trust him?
Yeah. We dated for six months.
Why?
It's just people in this
business can be crazy sometimes.
I've seen it time and time
again. People change.
Okay. Show me
some of your moves.
I'm sorry, my moves?
- Self-defense.
- Really?
It's okay. It's okay.
What's next?
Yeah. Tapping, okay?
Yeah.
No.
- Easy enough?
- Okay.
It's not easy if you don't know
what the other person's
capable of...
or...
if they have a better weapon.
Okay. That's good.
What's next?
Well, you could either find
their weak spot...
It's okay.
Or...
just wait for me to save you.
I was looking
for a second chance
But it was never
part of my romance
Caught in a shiver
the dream died and withered
No way out of the dark
Finally swallowed me whole
Felt like
my soul almost died
Ah, let's do the bridge
one more time.
You can give me
something better.
That was scratchy.
I-I-I need velvet.
Can you believe this song
was on her first album?
For a second chance
It really is a rebirth.
I actually did know that.
All right, one more time.
And this time coo, don't kaw.
Her voice is off.
Can't you tell?
Yeah. Well...
All right, I gotta go.
Okay, bye.
Okay, I think I've got something
for the overlay tracks,
but I need you to come back
on Friday and re-record.
Seriously?
She sounded great.
She always sounds great.
That was nowhere near
Eden-Chase great.
What have you been doing anyway?
I mean, never heard
your texture so sloppy.
Well, maybe your ears
are off today.
Look, I'm sorry, Ozzie.
I haven't been sleeping well.
- Maybe it's...
- Oh, that's it. Oh, no.
Or maybe, maybe it's because
you had your boy toy over
all weekend? What?
Y-you didn't think that I knew
you were at the restaurant
getting all hot and heavy
with Cruz
when you knew you had to be here
today to record?
We went to dinner
the other night.
I don't care what you had.
I just need you here Friday,
vocals ready to rock.
That means you've got to be
a very good little girl
this week.
Fine. She gets it, okay?
Are we good?
Oh, no complaints.
Some of your best work
comes from your break-ups.
I just need you here
full-on Friday, all right?
Okay, look,
I'm not your good little girl.
Put your hand past my waist
again, and we're done.
Okay, um...
Friday, be reborn.
You all right?
Anything I can do for you
before I make my rounds?
No, I think I'm just gonna go
send some emails
and go to bed early.
Hey, Eden.
Does he always pull that
inappropriate stuff with you?
Yeah.
He's just done so much for me
over the years,
it's hard to know
when to tell him to back off.
Guess I just had enough tonight.
Well, good for you.
You know your worth.
Well, I don't know
who's paying for it,
but it's sure as hell
not gonna be me.
Don't we have insurance
for that? Oh, uh-huh.
Well, if you'd like some
job insurance, go find some!
Colette, hey.
What's up?
Do they know
who it could have been?
They know nothing,
except that it was a homicide.
How do they know?
They didn't take anything,
but they did find
a star bandana at the scene.
It was the same one
that the guy was wearing...
the night that we were attacked.
It was his murder weapon.
But why would they kill Ozzie
if they're really after me?
Sometimes stalkers do
this sort of thing.
They close in on
the world around their victim.
They target their friends,
their colleagues,
their entire way of life.
Does that mean
we're all in danger?
Not if we catch this guy first.
Eden, are you okay?
Just so unreal.
Super unreal.
Yeah, so unreal,
I think I need a drink.
Same.
Nah. I'm good.
Still on the clock.
I'm really sorry
about the other night.
I'm patient. I can wait.
I really don't like the way
that guy watches you, though.
That's literally his job,
Christian.
Be a soldier
Five, six, seven,
cross it out, go.
Stomp.
Five, six, seven, go.
One, two, three, four,
fix, six, turn it out, boom!
- Whoo!
- Yes!
It's fine.
Hey.
Are we watering the gardens now?
Uh, you know,
I think Eden and the others
are up in the den,
if you're looking for 'em.
What are you doing, anyway?
You do realize there's
an entire sprinkler system
dedicated to this.
Is that blood?
It is.
I think a coyote got in here
and caught a parakeet.
It's too bad.
I really like the way they sing.
Okay.
Seven, eight, one.
Oh, my God.
That looked so great to me.
I think you ladies are done.
I agree.
I-I think we're done. Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Okay. Okay, okay.
So can we just remember
to get into the studio
before our fittings by Friday?
And just keep in mind that once
you're sewn in,
it can't be undone.
So, Dara, let's hold off
on the fatty Hawaiian food
till after the shoot, okay?
Sure. I'm gonna order us some
yummy, semi-healthy takeout.
Okay, so are we going back
into the studio
to re-record on Friday?
They sent the remix.
It sounds great.
There's absolutely no reason
to go back in.
Ozzie is...
was wrong.
- Okay, great.
- And actually...
I'm gonna be in San Francisco
this weekend,
so sadly I'm gonna miss
the festivities.
Festivities?
- Mm.
- Go on. Tell her.
So don't be mad.
We decided a little album
preview party would be fun.
And plus, your friends
would be super excited
to hear that remix.
Seriously?
An album-release party?
- Where?
- Here.
Next Friday. Just for you.
And you don't have to do
a damn thing.
We've, we've got it all covered.
- What?
- Kurt worked it out.
Look, I said nothing big,
just an intimate garden party,
fab food truck,
couple of dozen guests.
Look, you need this.
And it'll be good for you
before we go to Maui,
because once the album drops
and we go out on tour,
it'll be all work, no play.
Why do I feel like
there's a catch?
Just one performance
of your Reborn remix,
you know, to get the buzz going
on your social.
Look, PR said it'll be good
for us and the album, and the...
Yeah, hang on, you're suggesting
having a party here,
after everything
that's happened?
There'll be extra security
at the gate.
There'll be a list of names
at the door,
and if you're not on the list,
you don't get in.
And what about anywhere else
on the property?
That's why I hired you, unless
you don't think you can handle
it, in which case we need
to bring somebody else in
for the job.
All right! Okay, I have a ton
of work to do before I go.
I'll be back on Sunday. Okay?
- You'll be all right till then?
- I think so.
- Thanks, Colette.
- Okay.
- Have fun.
- You, too.
- I got it. Yeah.
- Thank you.
I know this was all your idea.
You know she's right.
You deserve this.
Hey. You good?
Isn't it weird to have a party
after, you know, Ozzie?
Oh, Ozzie was the poster child
for the show must go on. Right?
I, I honestly think
he would have
wanted you to have this party.
Have it in his,
have it in his honor.
Maybe I'll dedicate
Finally Free to him.
I think
that is a wonderful idea.
- To Ozzie. Cheers.
- Mm-hmm.
Cute.
There he is.
I was looking for you.
- How's it going?
- Good. You guys get finished up?
Mm-hmm, I was about to take off,
unless you wanna show me
your east wing.
- I'm flattered.
- Mm.
I'm kind of still
on the clock here.
Plus, Colette's pretty strict.
No guests.
Well, lucky for you,
I'm not a guest.
I've slept over many times,
just not that end of the house.
Sorry. Reactionary response.
Like I said, I'm flattered.
No, thanks.
Hey, what's wrong with you?
Nothing. Let's just go, please.
Okay.
Sparkling wine
and ice cream pairing, huh?
Don't judge me.
It's been that kind of day.
Besides, this is light bubbly
and I'm only gonna have,
like, two bites of this.
Yeah, I'm never gonna judge
someone for eating
peanut butter and pretzel
ice cream, are you kidding me?
Mm. You want some Prosecco?
Christian was too busy.
You know I hate drinking alone.
You know, sadly,
I draw the line at the bubbly.
- More of a whisky guy myself.
- Whisky, huh?
We have that, too.
You mind me asking what happened
with you and Christian?
Thought you guys broke up.
I mean, that's what
the tabloid said.
We did break up.
It's like we were both
just so busy.
Lee and I were both really busy,
but it was like we couldn't
stay away from each other.
Like, we had this unhealthy
addiction to each other.
Yeah, maybe it says you guys
can't open up to each other,
you know, for real, 'cause
of your past relationships.
Or maybe
you're not really in love.
Hard to say.
Women throw themselves
at Christian all the time,
just like they did with Lee,
but Lee cheated on me
all the time
even when
we lived together, so...
You think Christian's a cheater?
No, I don't.
I think he's like me.
Hard shell.
Through your disguise
But you're right. It is hard
for me to open up to him.
Well, you haven't had
a hard time opening up to me.
It's funny. What's that say?
I don't know,
just something about you.
You're easy to talk to.
Well, I did unload
my life story on you, too, so...
But that was the tequila.
- Mm.
- Told ya.
Well, what does whisky
do to you?
Mm...
That's a gamble.
No attraction
Satisfaction...
You know, ahem...
I think it's what you said
the day we hired you.
You said
that I'm probably surprised
when people treat me different
'cause I'm famous,
'cause I just wanna be treated
like a normal person.
You're right.
Well, hate to say this,
but I lied that day...
Liar liar
Yeah.
I also said
you were extraordinary.
But what I didn't say was that
it's not
because of your beauty...
Liar I know
Or your voice...
but because you're you.
Was that the whisky?
Nah.
Liar liar
I know you wanna start
a fire
Liar liar
I know you wanna start
a fire
Wait, wait, wait.
- What?
- I think we...
I have had too much to drink.
Eden, admit it.
There's something between us.
All right? We both know it.
Come on.
Yeah, I know, I just...
I have to go to bed.
Eden.
Hey. Hey!
Eden, can we talk about this
for one minute?
Please? Hey. Hey!
I just want to go to sleep,
okay?
- Fine, you can, after we talk.
- There's nothing to talk about.
I'm your boss, you're
my bodyguard. It was a mistake.
No, that's not all we are
to each other, and you know it.
Can we please talk about this
after we've both sobered up?
- I'm perfectly sober right now.
- Yeah, well, I'm not!
And I need to go to sleep.
Hey.
You know I'm only here
to protect you, right?
Yeah. Thank you.
So, wait,
he got physical with you?
No, he didn't hurt me. He ju...
It was scary,
the look in his eyes.
Okay, but that's
kind of his job, right,
like, to look intimidating
or whatever?
I mean, I guess.
Do you think
it may be bothered you
because you sort of wanted it?
He's my employee, Addison.
He's supposed to protect me
from the bad guys.
I can't have him here in the
position to become the bad guy.
Right, right. Okay, well,
what do you want to do?
Do you want me to come over?
Would you?
I mean, I'm sure it's fine.
I just wanna go to the studio
without him,
talk to Colette, see what
she has to say about it.
Okay, fine. I'll be there soon.
Okay, thanks.
- Good morning.
- Hey.
Thank you for the grapefruit
and coffee. It was really sweet.
And the apology?
I'm sorry again.
I didn't mean to make you upset
last night.
- I shouldn't have.
- Jackson, it's fine.
I was drunk,
I let my emotions over Ozzie
and Christian and the album
get the best of me. That's all.
So where are we headed to today?
Actually, I'm just going
into the studio
for a little bit,
it shouldn't take long.
I thought Colette said
you didn't have
to re-record the track.
Oh, yeah, she just has
some Maui travel stuff
she wants me to sign
before she leaves tomorrow.
Great. I'm gonna go get my keys.
Actually, um, Addison
is swinging by to pick me up.
And there's security at the
studio, so we should be fine.
- You don't want me to come?
- No-no, it's not that.
I just have these guys
coming with
the sound equipment. I thought
maybe you could let them in.
Of course.
Yeah. Whatever you need.
- Great.
- All right.
Oh, I'm just gonna go over there
and fire him immediately.
Okay, no, Colette,
I don't want this to get messy.
He just developed feelings
is all.
I think we should go easy
on him.
Do you have feelings
for him, too?
No, I don't.
Okay, not like the feelings
I have for Christian.
So why do you care
if I fire him?
Because I do care about him.
Maybe it's just not a good idea
for him to live in the house.
Okay, so I'll tell him
to collect his crap
and leave the premises
immediately.
We can get you
new onsite security.
Right before the party?
And-and you leave tomorrow?
That creep is still out there.
I just...
I don't think
it's the best idea.
Eden, do you think
this just could wait?
For what? What if he knocks down
her door next time, huh?
You know, I... Maybe
I'm just gonna cancel my trip.
No, no, Colette, you and Richard
just worked things out.
You should go. I'll be fine.
And I do feel safer
with him there
knowing that guy's out there.
Yes, and look, I will be right
by your side the entire weekend.
I don't think Jackson's gonna
try anything with me there.
Okay. Fine.
But just keep me updated
regularly, okay?
And when I get back, Mr. Reed
is off the property for good.
Okay.
- Thanks, Colette.
- Okay.
- Safe travels.
- Okay.
You guys don't have
too much fun tomorrow, okay?
- [Eden chuckles]
- We'll try.
- Here, mate.
- Thanks, mate.
- Oh. Hey, guys.
- Hello.
- Hey, you're back.
- Wow!
You brought out the arch.
It really is a special occasion.
Yeah.
Hey, thanks for doing this.
You are the best assistant
a girl could ask for.
Anything for you,
my pop princess.
Oh, I even sent
don't-save-the-date
to your enemies,
so they're gonna know
we're gonna be having fun
without them.
Manana. Oh, yeah.
And I'll be over tomorrow
at 4 p.m. sharp
to fix that face.
Oh, yes, thank you.
- Hey, has anybody seen Jackson?
- Oh, yeah, he was here earlier.
He said he didn't have anything
nice to wear for the party,
so he had to go to Encino
and get his bestest blazer.
- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, here, let us help you.
- Yeah.
- Sure.
- Thanks.
Jimmy?
Is that you?
Hello?
Hello?
Jimmy, this isn't funny.
No matter how many times
you ask,
I'm still not going out
with you.
Hello?
Boo!
H-h-help!
Jackson, you're back.
Did you get your suit?
- Hey, Addison.
- Hey, Jackson.
Hope you don't mind
I'm crashing the house
for this weekend's festivities.
Ah, not my house.
- More the merrier, right?
- Absolutely.
Um, you look stunning.
Thank you.
- Are you okay?
- It's Colette.
She's not answering my calls
or texts. It's just weird.
Maybe she's still on the plane
to San Fran.
What time is her flight?
Okay, yeah.
Maybe it's just that.
Maybe. Now look,
you need to stop your worrying.
Okay? Tonight is your night
to shine.
Yeah?
See?
- It's you, baby. It's you!
- Okay.
I was looking
for a second chance
But it was never
part of my romance
- She looks so good.
- So good.
Withered
no way out of the dark
Finally swallowed me whole
Felt like my soul
almost died
But I saw a thing
give me hope through the...
Is that Lee who just walked in?
You gotta be kidding me.
What is he doing here?
More importantly,
who invited him?
It wasn't me. I swear.
From the ashes
feel my fears go
Like a phoenix
like a phoenix
Like a phoenix
feel my soul reborn
Like a phoenix
like a phoenix
Like a phoenix
feel my soul reborn
See my life
much clearer now
I can hear my heart...
That was amazing!
So hot!
- My goddess.
- Mm. Thanks, guys.
- Look at this, guys.
- Nice remix, Ede.
Lee. What are you doing here?
I was invited,
by Colette, of course.
She didn't tell you?
Colette...
What makes you think
you would be welcome?
No, you know what,
you need to leave
because you're not welcome here,
no matter what that text says.
Nice to see you, too, Addison.
Gang's all here, huh?
Lee, I think there's been
some sort of misunderstanding.
- No, I can read texts just fine.
- Yeah?
Well, how about I send you
a text to remind you
that you cheated on her and
treated her like crap for years?
- Why would she want you here?
- Christian, it's fine.
No, no, no.
Cruz has clearly
got a lot to say.
But why don't you go write
a crappy little song about it
and let Eden speak for herself?
Let's just go out front and have
a private discussion, huh?
- You guys...
- Get your hands off me.
I came to support Eden
and I was invited.
You need to leave!
Hey. Lee, right?
Eden, let, let's get you
out of here.
I'm fine.
Hey, you need to tell everybody
to leave, okay?
Okay, okay. Yeah. Ahem.
All right, everyone!
Uh, we're gonna call it
a little bit early tonight.
But thank you, everyone,
for coming out this evening
and supporting Eden.
So, uh, buenas noches.
Bye now.
Hell, man,
where are you taking me?
I'll find my car just fine,
thanks.
Whoa. Whoa!
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
- You all right?
- I'm fine.
I wish I'd gotten in a right
hook before Jack stepped in.
I mean, where was he?
What took him so long?
- I have no idea.
- You know what?
You could totally write
a hit song about this.
- Yeah.
- I might do that.
Okay, okay. We're leaving.
Mm, mm. All right. Mm.
Mwah. Mwah.
Thank you for coming. Bye.
- Love you.
- Love you.
Bye, mama.
Mm! Hey.
At least you got to perform
your song for everyone
and look really great
while doing it.
- Thank you.
- All right, bye, mama.
You were great. You look great.
- Thank you.
- You look great. My goddess.
- Thanks.
- Hey, take care of him.
- Get home safe.
- All right.
All right.
I'm gonna take a shower.
I think that's a good idea.
- Well, that was a bust.
- Yeah.
What do you think happened
to Jackson and Lee anyways?
I don't know.
Maybe Jackson killed him.
Hm.
My God, what?
Find me a boyfriend.
Let's get tequila.
So weird. I still
haven't heard from Colette.
And of all people,
why would she invite Lee?
Ede.
There is, there is something
that I have to tell you.
It's about me and Lee.
Back when I had just started
working for you,
and you and him
were on the rocks...
Wait. Did you hear that?
- What was that?
- I heard it before.
I think it's coming
from the storage room.
We'll check up.
What is that?
I don't know.
Oh, my God!
No, no, no, please. Help me.
Wasn't that the guy
who attacked you?
Yeah, I think so.
It was the same outfit at least.
Well, what was he doing
in your storage room?
I have no idea.
We need to find Christian
and call the police now.
Wait. Where the hell
is my phone?
Mine's gone, too.
In my eyes
Christian!
Take me up to the sky
Oh my light
You're the guy
in my eyes
I'm gonna focus in your...
Eden?
You're so good to me in bed
You're so good to me in bed
You're my all
Christian!
Where is Jackson?
This is what
they call Euphoria
I'll do any...
"Tess?"
The lyrics of your song
really say it all, don't they?
Reborn.
You were heartbroken by Adam
in the garden of Eden,
so you ate
from his poisoned apple,
and then died
so that you could be reborn.
Only, you got the story wrong.
Yeah. Sit.
Sit, please.
In the Bible it was Eve who ate
the poisonous apple first.
Eden, come on.
But your stupid little song
was like passing
that poisonous apple
to my sister.
Your music poisoned her.
It made her think
it was the only way out,
that she could be reborn, that
the pain would just go away.
Jackson, I didn't mean...
Y-you didn't mean to make
millions on a song
that my sister used
to kill herself?
Huh. Okay.
It's a pop song, Jackson.
It's a song
about female empowerment.
If your sister
didn't know the difference...
No, no!
You don't get to talk, Addison,
because it's not all on Eden.
No, you see, it's on Ozzie,
that son of a bitch
who produced it.
It's on Colette who endorsed it,
which, by the way,
I will say I'm indebted to her
because after I turned her head
around backwards on her body,
I used her cell phone
to invite Lee,
the ex who inspired
the song, whatever.
His body's chilling
in your garden right now.
- By the way, don't let me...
- Jackson.
- Please...
- And then, one second, please.
It's on you,
sweet, sweet Addison,
the BFF.
See, you screwed Lee...
behind her back
and helped break her heart.
Addison...
But it is mostly on you, Eden.
How dare you revamp and remix
this despicable song?
This track
will never be re-released,
not after the killings
that are about to surround it.
- Jackson.
- No. Listen.
Think about all the people
I'm going to save...
because I bet
it will be someone's sister.
Jackson, where's Christian?
Please tell me
you didn't hurt Christian.
Oh.
Mm, I'm just kidding. He's fine.
I did a number on his skull.
I'm sorry.
We already called the police.
Did you?
Yes.
With what phones?
Oh! What did you think of Stu?
Because he is your biggest fan.
I met him on an Eden Chase
fan site, and he is just...
He's... He's crazy.
But he was the perfect pawn
for my perfect plan.
You hired him to attack me?
I would say I groomed him.
You see, I let him sneak
onto the lot where I took a job
right after hearing that it was
where you were gonna shoot
your new music video.
And then I just gave him
the opportunity
to have you to himself,
but really, if I'm being honest,
it was just so that I could
save you.
You know, earn your trust.
Yeah, not very original, but...
You'll never get away with this,
you realize that?
'Cause even if we die, everyone
knows you're here with us.
Yes, Addison, good.
That's why I was so grateful
that Stu showed up again here,
helped me get this job,
and then, God bless him,
he showed up again,
and that's when I caught him.
And I realized
that if I just hung on to him,
well, then he could be the
fall guy for all the killings
that are happening around here.
You're sick. You need help.
Come on, Eden,
I thought you were listening!
I'm the hero.
Oh, my God, let me spell
this out for you, okay?
I see two villains
in front of me.
So...
who is ready
for the final chase?
Run.
Where are you going?
Oh, my God!
Okay! Sure.
Let's get some fresh air.
He's coming.
Hide.
Ede, it was before
we were friends.
Okay, I was dumb and insecure,
and I really thought
y'all were over.
Addison, it's in the past.
It doesn't matter.
You've been there for me.
You're my only true friend.
Oh, my God, Ede.
I think he heard us.
Shh! Let's go.
Come on, let's go. Go, go.
Oh, come on.
Like you didn't want him dead.
Ow!
Come here!
- Come here.
- No! No! No, no, no.
Jackson, no, no, no.
Addison, Addison.
Addison, Addison!
I really wouldn't do that
if I were you.
You know, I'm not responsible
for what happened
to your sister.
All my life
I have felt responsible
for how fans respond to me.
But I won't take responsibility
anymore.
I couldn't control the path
that she chose,
and you can't change it.
Killing me won't change it.
Maybe not.
But I will feel
so much better...
knowing that my plan worked...
that I did to you
exactly what your music did
to my sister.
Made her feel comfortable...
and safe.
You know,
I did learn a lot from you.
You never know
what a person is capable of...
especially if they have
a better weapon.
Eden...
Christian.
What was that?
Probably just the stalker
that's tied up
in the storage room.
Okay.
Well, for what it's worth,
I really liked your remix.
Yeah? Me, too.
I'm so glad you're okay.
We will be okay.
Cry
Right until
the world is over
You-o-o a-a-are
So-o-o beautiful
Tonight
Loving you like
I'm supposed to
You-o-o a-a-are
So-o-o beautiful
Tonight
Loving you like
I'm supposed to
Tonight
Loving you like
I'm supposed to
Loving you like
I'm supposed to
I know what's it like
to be the one
That people step right over
Yeah
Keep your focus on the light
don't be taken by the dark
Be a soldier
Yeah
I know life can be no fun
but I know your love
Taught me to fire
Yeah
Nothing will
ever hold us down
We keep climbing
till we get much higher
Yeah
Fear is coming over me
No more fear
I'm finally fear
My eyes wide open I can see
I'm not giving up giving up
This time I know
that I'm in love
This time I know
I'm not giving up
And cut! That is a wrap!
Oh, and, uh, crew,
I'm not paying overtime,
so get the hell out of here.
What? Oh, oh, did you want
to yell cut? Oh. Okay, here.
Tell your daddy that I said
you're welcome
for bringing you on here.
Dumb kid.
So, how was it?
- Juego.
- It was great.
Addison, so the-the choreography
for the chorus,
yeah, wasn't quite next level.
- Oh. Oh.
- But pretty damn close.
Nice job, ladies. And you...
Oh, what did we do
to deserve you, Eden Chase?
Yes.
Okay. Okay, okay.
It was a great first week.
Now let's try to remember
that we still have Maui
after the buzz party,
so let's try
not to destroy our livers
tonight, okay?
All right, I'll meet you
out back in ten.
Okay.
Please! Oh, I just... Please!
Fine.
Ede, baby girl.
Would you please
take a photo with Cheri?
She's been having starry eyes
for you all week,
and I'm about to give her
a black eye
if she asks me one more time.
- Sure. Happy to.
- Thank you.
Here.
One more.
- Perfect.
- Thank you so much!
I've been a fan since you
and Lee Vance were together.
Oh, oh, um, I shouldn't have
mentioned him.
Should I? I'm so sorry.
Oh, my gosh, I'm so stupid.
It's fine,
the tabloids won't let me forget
that chapter of my life, anyway.
Hey, you did a great job
on Dara for the video.
Yes! You beat me back to my 20s,
and for that, I love you.
Well, thank you.
It was an honor.
Have your purse, Ede.
Are you gonna change?
Yeah. Has anyone seen my phone?
Oh, uh...
- Uh, excuse me, Ms. Chase.
- Who?
- Hi. Is this yours?
- Oh.
I'm sorry, I was actually asked
to give it
directly to Ms. Chase.
- Oh.
- Thank you.
- Um...
- Uh, Jackson.
Studio security.
- Hm.
- Thank you, Jackson.
Great job out there.
I wasn't supposed to watch,
but it was, uh,
it was pretty hard to look away
sometimes.
I'm sorry. It's too much.
No, no.
It's very sweet. Thank you.
And, you know, in the future
if anyone tells you
you can't watch,
tell them I said you can.
Oh. Thank you, miss.
- Eden.
- Thank you, Eden.
Okay, guys, um, sorry
to interrupt. Get home safe.
- Thank you.
- Oh, we will.
- Thanks for stopping by.
- Security.
Whoo! Ai, Dios.
Eden, for a minute there,
I literally couldn't breathe.
If I had to breathe,
I would have gagged.
- I am gagged.
- Forget it, boys.
You're happily married,
and he is happily mine.
Oh, sorry, dear,
he was clearly into Ede.
Ede, no number? Seriously?
What?
- Oh, my God.
- All right, let's do this...
Oh.
- Where'd the car go?
- I don't know.
- I'm leaving with the boys.
- Ede, I'll ride with you.
Great.
See you guys back at the house.
- Bye. See ya.
- Okay. Bye.
Oh, there's...
Oh, there's the car, I see it.
- Oh. Okay.
- Yeah, it's coming. Yeah.
Okay.
Uh-oh. I know that look.
It's Christian.
He wants to see me.
Of course he does.
- Nobody move.
- Oh, oh, oh, my God.
- Not one reach.
- Okay.
I said, nobody move!
Put the phone down!
- Phone, lady!
- Okay. Okay.
Okay, okay. What do you want?
- You. Get in the car now.
- No.
- No, no.
- I said now!
- Like hell she will!
- Move it, lady.
You're taking her,
you're taking me.
Addison, stop. Okay, listen.
I will go with you, but please
just don't hurt anyone.
- Good. Move.
- Hey!
All right, now...
Oh, Jesus.
- Oh, my God.
- I'm gonna call for help.
- Are you okay? You're okay?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- That's all.
- Okay, thank you.
Did they find the guy?
No. They're still looking
for him.
How the hell did he get
on the backlot?
Richard was outside the gate,
distracted on his phone.
The kid held him up at gunpoint.
He's giving his statement now.
- Well, Richard's fired.
- What about us?
We gave our statement.
We're free to go.
Oh, but, Ozzie, they wanna
speak to you for a minute.
All right.
Um, you gonna be okay, sweetie?
Yeah, I'm fine, thank you.
Can anybody watch her tonight?
Yeah. There'll be a patrol car
at your house all night.
I'm gonna call you
first thing in the morning.
- Stay safe.
- Thanks. Thank you.
And I'll stay with you
tonight, too.
Okay. Thank you.
Come on, I'll drive you home.
Hey. Eden. Hi.
- Jackson. Are you okay?
- I'm fine. Are you okay?
I am so sorry about that.
Don't be sorry.
You saved my life.
You saved all our lives.
Thank you.
Yes, we really appreciate
you stepping in to help,
but we have to go now.
Yes, ma'am, understood.
Just my card, in case you ever
want some security detail
or anything, I have four years
of extensive training.
- Okay, we appreciate that.
- All right.
- Thank you.
- Goodnight.
I guess word is out
about the attack.
Yeah. It's been all over
the news since about 6 a.m.
Bet your publicist
is having a field day.
Yeah. And Christian
is totally freaked out.
He started texting me at 2 a.m.
when he found out.
- Hm.
- Barely got any sleep.
Well, here.
Perfect blend of green
goodies is the pick-up you need.
Thanks.
And thanks for staying
last night. I'm so sorry.
Why are you sorry?
Because he was after me,
and you could've gotten hurt
because of me.
Eden, stop. You always do that.
You, you blame yourself
for things other people do
that have nothing to do
with you.
It just doesn't seem fair.
Well, life's not fair.
All you can do is be true
to yourself and your art.
Yes, people listen to you,
and, yes, that comes
with a ton of responsibility.
But you know, what people choose
to do, that doesn't define you.
I just feel guilty.
You and Colette put your lives
on the line for me. I hate that.
Look, I have been with you
since you were
literally unknown.
And I'll continue to be here
for your last Vegas revue.
You've, seriously, you've
given me a life and a career.
And for that,
I can never repay you.
You're the best.
You know, you could skip
going into the studio today.
What if we were
to just stay here
and go for a dip in the pool?
Well, that sounds
like an excellent plan.
I'm gonna go get us bikinis.
Okay.
Christian. Jeez!
I used my old key.
If I had a knife,
you'd be shanked.
Why didn't you use the doorbell?
Well, you weren't responding
to my texts,
and I wasn't sure
if you'd answer the door.
So, well, here I am.
Are you okay?
They still haven't found him?
No, Colette says the cops think
he's probably long gone by now.
But they are gonna send someone
to watch the gate
for the time being.
Well, then I'm staying.
Christian,
you don't need to stay here.
I want to.
Look, I'm not ready
for you to stay over again yet.
Ede, can't we just
move on already?
Christian, you can't just
waltz back in here
because you suddenly have time.
Two months ago you were off
playing gigs God knows where.
I know I wasn't always there
when you needed me,
but you have to admit,
you pushed me away, too.
Every time that I stayed over,
you went right back
to Ms. Independent with, "Oh,
I think you should go home now."
I'm sorry.
And I do, I want us to grow.
But I just don't have the time
right now.
Ede, I'm not Lee,
and I'm not going anywhere.
And I know you're capable
of taking care of yourself,
but I just wanna be
in your life.
I will sleep on the couch
if you want.
Addison is staying here for now.
I will be fine.
Will you at least have dinner
with me? Friday night. Please?
I will think about it.
Okay.
Are you gonna go out to dinner
with Christian or not?
No, I don't know
if I'm ready to.
If you wait till you're ready,
it's never gonna happen.
- Oh! Crap. Sorry!
- Oh!
Oh. It's all good. I'll get it.
Sorry.
- Eden?
- Are you all right?
I just found bags
and a bottle back there,
like someone's been squatting
in the garden.
Maybe your gardener
was having lunch back there?
No, no, Jerry's on vacation,
and he swept up the garden
before he left.
Okay, well,
should we call the cops?
Addison, don't be so dramatic.
- What?
- I mean, yeah, what would I say?
"Hey, stalker
left some trash back here.
Can you dust these for prints?"
- Yeah.
- Eden.
You are way too
casual about your safety. I...
I know you're trying to
salvage as much of a normal life
as possible,
but you need better protection
than just a gate
and a good security system.
Okay, I, I can't stay
every night, you know?
Well, I'll stay.
Okay, you're right,
I'll call that security guard.
- See if he's available.
- Oh, yeah.
Maybe he can case the place
for a while,
at least until we know
that lunatic is gone.
- That guy was so sweet.
- Well, and so hot.
Okay. I'll give Colette a call,
maybe she can interview him.
I think I still have his card
somewhere.
I think that is,
that is a great plan.
- Yeah.
- Makes me feel better.
Wow.
Hey. Nice Tuney.
Oh, yeah. You can pick it up
if you want.
Uh, no. Priceless goods.
Thank you, though.
Hey, you want a lemonade
or a tea?
Uh, lemonade sounds great.
Please, have a seat, Mr. Reed.
Okay, so, we did
your background check
and you're clean,
your references are pristine.
So why don't you tell me
what's not on your record,
so I don't have to find out
from some private source?
Of course. Um, uh, what?
Like, what are you looking for?
Like, criminal activity?
Like, anything
you deem worthy of noting
before I consider hiring you
to protect
an international superstar.
Sure.
So I got busted buying booze
when I was 19 with a friend.
It was his idea, not mine,
I assure you.
Um, I mean,
it's really all I can think of.
No, parking tickets.
I get a lot of parking tickets.
The meters in my neighborhood
are...
Working on it.
Why did you decide to get into
private security detail?
Oh, I actually wanted
to do stunts in the movies,
but I was taking care
of my little sister
when she was in high school,
and so I had to get a job
and I started bouncing
at a club in San Diego.
I know, um,
that whole time, though,
I was taking
defensive-training classes,
combat classes to keep one foot
in that, in that stunt world.
But then the security detail
thing just took off
and, um... here I am.
Well...
I have been managing Ms. Chase
since she was barely an adult.
Mm. Mm-hmm.
And since she's family to me,
I need you
to understand something.
She's not just any client.
You do realize
who Eden Chase is?
Yes, ma'am.
Uh...
I think she's an ordinary person
who doesn't really understand
how extraordinary she is.
I think
that she probably still finds it
pretty weird when people
treat her differently,
because all she wants
is to be normal.
It's funny 'cause I think that's
what makes her so relatable
to her fans and, I mean, frankly
why so many people love her.
- Hi. Thank you.
- You're welcome.
That's great.
Okay.
So there's just one problem.
Eden Chase is not normal.
And your idyllic sentiments,
while sweet,
are naive
and could get her killed.
Look, if you wanna know
if I would kill for Ms. Chase...
the answer is yes.
Welcome to the team.
Thank you.
Okay, you are
not to step foot upstairs
unless Ms. Chase asks you to,
understood?
Ms. Chase calls the shots.
She has me on speed dial.
I'm less than five minutes away.
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
This is great.
My pleasure.
There are towels
on the top shelf of the cabinet
in the laundry room, if you need
anything else,
just give me a shout.
Thank you. You, too.
Hey, Eden.
You're safe with me.
I promise.
I prefer mine with salt.
Funny.
So do I. Have at it.
Thank you.
You always eat in the kitchen?
Dining room is too big for one.
Makes sense.
Better views, though.
Like the one from that balcony.
Right. I'm gonna go get dressed
for this studio meet.
That's great. I'll drive you.
Uh, actually, Eden,
I wanted to mention.
I carry a firearm.
I didn't know how you feel about
that. I do keep it concealed.
But it's really comes down
to how you feel.
It's fine. Uh, just keep it
locked up while you're here.
And don't use the wild parakeets
as target practice.
Can do. Lock it down.
Protect the parakeets.
- How is he doing?
- He seems great.
- He's really down to earth.
- Great.
Okay, I think Ozzie wants to ask
about Lee's new film.
I know, you don't wanna do it,
but I think
we should at least consider.
He did just produce
your best album.
Okay.
Eden, babe.
How are you feeling, huh?
I'm doing much better,
thank you.
Okay, that's amazing.
Okay, hey, hey, have a seat.
Here, have water. There you go.
So, ready to lay down
a classic eight-track
renewed and remixed
for Lee's big new film?
Um, as you recall, we already
passed on the opportunity
to provide a track
for Eden's ex's new film.
But happy to hear you out,
so, please...
Okay, so the execs called,
they just want
what's best for the film.
Now, we sent you the premise
that the studio sent us,
and we know
Reborn is perfect for a remix.
It-it never got the traction
that it deserved
when it was first released,
and it's still
one of the best tracks
on our first album.
Right, but doesn't it feel like
they just want it
for some sort
of publicity stunt?
Who cares? You don't have to go
to the premiere.
You don't have to see Lee,
y-you don't even
have to look at the damn movie
at all if you don't want to.
You just lay down
some fresh tracks,
and then ka-ching,
we all make a ton of money.
It's that simple. Hey, it'll be
like the rebirthing of Reborn.
Okay, we... Ozzie, we...
Oh, no, it's not that simple.
The song was controversial
at the time. It still is.
Do we even know if the label's
gonna say yes to this?
Mm-hmm, because the label
already said yes to me.
Craig's my boy. We were
just having dinner last week.
Look, we just wanna do
this gnarly-ass remix,
and then we'll crush
this whole thing.
Excuse me. Can I help you?
Um...
- I-I'll just stand here.
- Oh, okay.
No! Who the hell are you?
What're you doing in my meeting?
This is Eden's
new security detail.
They still haven't caught the
guy, she needs somebody around
full-time to keep her safe.
Okay, but still, why do you
think you have the right
to walk into my meeting? Go.
Actually, his name is Jackson,
and I would like
for him to stay.
So, Jackson, please,
you can stay.
Look, Ozzie, it's not that
I don't appreciate the offer.
I just think it's kinda weird
to record a song for a movie
my ex is starring in, you know?
Can I just have a little bit
longer to think about it?
Well, if by little bit
you mean Friday,
because we have to record this
by Monday.
Otherwise I've got to get
a bad replacement
because I've already made
a commitment to these bozos
to help them get a song now.
Okay, fine.
You know, thank you, Ozzie.
We appreciate you and
everything you've done for us.
We're gonna talk about it
and we'll let you know.
Well, by the way,
just so you know,
in my 26 years in business,
nobody's ever made me go
to my second choice.
Hope you're not the first.
Thank you, Ozzie.
We'll let you know.
Mm.
Okay. Take a day or two
and let me know.
- I'll support you either way.
- Thanks, Colette.
So where to next?
You know, I'd like to stop
by that little market
in Brentwood?
I'm in the mood to make tacos.
You can go to a grocery store
without being mauled by fans?
No, but you can.
Right.
You wanna chop up some of that
jalapeo, throw it in here?
You want some in your meat?
I'm from Texas.
I can take the heat.
Ah, I see.
Where the, uh, Taco Tuesday
was originated, I'm guessing?
Sadly,
I think that was in Jersey,
but we did perfect the Tin Texas.
Right.
- Okay, is that enough?
- Oh, yeah. Beautiful.
Okay, all the fixings
are good to go.
I don't know about you,
but I need another margarita.
So long as the boss is okay
with her bodyguard
drinking on the job.
It's better
than the alternative.
Me drinking alone.
Dinner's ready!
Let's eat.
Mm.
Taco Tuesday,
Texans for the win.
Thank you, now, I gotta say,
this is admittedly
my first time
having dinner with a client,
so it's a little strange to me.
Maybe you've never had a client
like me.
I am a Tennessee girl,
we're known to be very nice
like you Texan folk.
So, uh,
makes me a little curious.
You're obviously okay with me
stealing a grapefruit,
occasionally
eating in your presence.
But we haven't talked
any house rules yet.
I just wanna make sure I'm not
overstepping while I'm here.
Hm, I've never had anyone
live here before
except for friends in and out.
But I'm pretty easygoing.
What do you wanna know?
Well, I mean,
I did see that gym downstairs.
Ah, yes.
I'm normally down there
around 8:00 every morning,
unless I go to a spin class.
You're welcome to use it as long
as you wipe everything down.
Sounds great. Thank you.
You can use the pool,
watch the TV,
use the computer, whatever.
Really?
That's amazing. Thank you.
Okay, anything
you don't want me to do?
I am a little weird
about my laundry.
So if you ever notice that
I've left clothes in the dryer,
just remind me.
I really don't like people
touching my clothes.
- Yeah.
- Not even the maids.
Sure. Hey.
Hands off the laundry.
Copy that. Can do.
So you living alone.
Where are your parents?
You mean you don't already know?
What?
Wow, sorry,
that was super arrogant
assuming that everyone knows
about my personal life.
No, hey, don't get me wrong.
I mean, who doesn't know
the lyrics to Soul Reborn?
You know, I think my sister
actually played that song
every day for a year.
Well, it's actually
just called Reborn.
But thank you.
That's very sweet.
I mean, the truth is,
I don't follow the fluff.
I don't know anything
about your personal life
aside from you dating Lee Vance
and then that, um,
musician Colin, uh...
Christian.
Christian Cruz. That's it.
I was way off.
Anyway,
yes, I am close to my parents.
They retired in Mexico, so
these days if I wanna see them
other than on FaceTime,
I have to go down to them.
They are very attached
to their oceanfront view.
Which I bet you bought for them,
didn't you?
I mean, yes,
they had me later in life
when they were kinda
set in their ways.
So I figured
getting them out of my business
was a wise investment.
Sure.
These days
I really just miss them.
All right.
I think you need another one.
My turn.
Are you not having
another one, too?
No. No, just water for me.
I still got to do
my perimeter check.
- Here you go. Yeah.
- Thank you.
Okay. So what about
your family, then?
My family? Yeah, wow.
Uh, well, let's see here.
My mom retired to her grave
when I was 26 years old.
Yeah, sure wish it was Mexico.
But I mean, the view's better
from the sky anyway, right?
- Jackson, I'm so sorry.
- No.
No, don't be. She was sick.
My dad, I...
Yeah, who the hell knows
where he is.
We stopped speaking to him
shortly after my mom
had my sister.
Your sister,
are you close to her?
Yes. Yes, we were close.
Yeah, she was my, uh,
she was my little everything.
She took her own life
five years ago when she was 19.
I wasn't a good kid growing up.
I got in trouble a lot,
pissed my dad off a lot.
He was strict, military strict,
you know?
Around ten,
my mom has my baby sister,
and it wasn't planned,
and dad wasn't thrilled,
so he took off back to Texas.
Yeah.
You know, growing up,
all Tess wanted
was a relationship with my dad,
but he just wouldn't
give it to her, wouldn't do it.
So naturally she relied on me
and my mom for everything.
This time my mom gets sick.
Tess is 14 years old,
she meets this kid,
this prick kid
named Mike Miracle.
Yeah. That was his real name.
Little son of a bitch.
My mom dies,
Tess doesn't really ever
recover from that.
And at that same time,
this kid, he dumps her,
he breaks up with her
for another girl,
and that, that was it.
Mm, oh...
- I'm sorry.
- No.
No, thank you.
Means a lot.
You know
what Tess never stopped loving?
Eden Chase. Yeah, it's true.
She played your music so much.
Oh, my God!
Oh, she had to be
your biggest fan.
You know, along the way,
I think, uh,
maybe, kinda sort of made me
a fan, too.
Well, considering
that you saved my life,
your Taco Tuesday skills,
margarita-mixing skills,
I'm a fan, too.
Thank you.
And thanks for hearing me out. I
don't talk about Tess very much.
And, uh, yeah, I don't know,
I just felt safe
sharing that with you.
Hope I didn't cross any lines.
I think you just blurred them...
which in this case is okay.
- Hey.
- Hi.
Hi. Um...
Yeah, eight o'clock's your time
in the gym, isn't it?
- It's okay.
- I am so sorry.
- Let me get out of your way.
- Oh.
No, it's fine. I'm going
to a dance class in Brentwood.
Okay. Let me get dressed
and I'll take you.
No, no, don't worry about it.
They have security.
It's a private gym.
Addison's coming to pick me up.
We should be totally safe.
- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.
See you in a few.
Ice ice ice
Ice ice ice
Ice ice ice
I'm an ice queen
I'm an ice queen
yeah my neck is frozen
Yeah my wrist is frozen
everybody knows it
I'm an ice queen
...ocean called
the no emotion
Everybody knows it
I'm an ice queen
Yeah my neck is frozen
yeah my wrist is frozen
Everybody knows it
I'm an ice queen
...ocean called
the no emotion
Everybody knows it
Everyone says diamonds
are a girl's best friend
So I guess
Tiffany is my bestie
See I'm good on my own
I don't need no man
But I got a lot of them
all around me
Love me hate me
then I'm gonna...
So, how's the new bodyguard?
- What's his name again?
- Jackson.
And, yeah,
he's a really nice guy.
It's been kinda weird
having him there, but safe, too.
So that's it?
He just moved in
and you have a hot roomie now?
I guess. It's been nice
having him there.
We even had dinner together
last night.
- Mm.
- Talking to him is refreshing.
In what way?
I don't know. He's just honest.
He's got this kind
of Southern charm.
And not talking about
the industry all night
was really nice.
Hm. Okay.
Okay, what was that?
I-I don't know.
It seems like you like him.
What? No.
He's a literal employee.
- That would be a disaster.
- Okay.
Anyway, I'm having dinner
with Christian now on Friday.
- Oh, really? You caved?
- Mm.
Well, it's about time.
You so need to get laid.
Hi, I'm meeting Christian Cruz.
Oh.
Looks like you have
a stalker fan club over there.
Ah. You might have
to remove them forcibly.
They look dangerous.
- Hey.
- Eden. Hey.
Christian, this is Jackson,
my personal security detail.
Your bodyguard? Wow.
Sounds official.
- Nice to meet you, Jack.
- Nice to meet you, Chris.
Um, my name is Christian.
Ah, my name's Jackson.
Okay. Jackson, if you wanna,
I don't know, wait at the bar?
You can order what you want
and we'll put it on our bill.
Sounds great. Thank you.
You guys have a great dinner.
Just holler if you need me.
The music video? How long
do you guys have of filming?
- Three days in Maui.
- Maui, huh?
We were supposed to go there
together, as I recall.
We were. You just never took me.
Will you invite me now?
I don't know.
I'll think about it.
But if I remember correctly,
you don't really enjoy
being around my work events.
Ouch. I told you I was sorry
for missing your Grammy party.
Quite a few times,
if I remember correctly.
You did.
I just never forgave you.
So tell me about
this new security detail, Jack.
Jackson.
He's a really nice guy.
He's staying in the east wing
while they're trying to find
the guy who attacked me
on the backlot.
- I feel safer with him there.
- He's staying inside your house?
In the east wing.
How do you feel
you can trust him?
And since when
do you trust anyone?
Since he saved my life
that night.
I need someone who can be there
for me all the time,
not just when it works
for his schedule.
I thought we talked about this.
I thought
we were starting over now.
I'm sorry.
Cute seeing you
kind of jealous, though.
Jealous? Of a bodyguard?
- Don't think so.
- It's amazing.
The best part is
she's an even better person.
Crazy. Hey, guys.
- How was dinner?
- It was lovely.
Excuse me, can we close his tab?
It's the least I can do for you
for driving her here and all.
I see you made some new friends.
Yes, thanks to you.
Kevin and Katey here are
your biggest fans, apparently.
They'd love a selfie
if you don't mind.
Of course. My pleasure. Hi.
That considered safe, man?
Letting her get
so close to them?
Kevin Jamison and Katey Yates.
Already ran background checks
on both
while we were enjoying
some overpriced calamari.
See that?
Two steps ahead.
Have a great night.
I didn't know
That this was real
I was all in my mind
Trying so hard not to feel
Going in circles
love was my hurdle
But I changed my view
since I found you
Never knew
I was capable of love
But you made me see
right through
Maybe this is a mistake.
Maybe we should call it a night.
Sober up.
It's fine, really.
I'll go.
Okay. Sorry.
- Goodnight.
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.
All right. Here we go.
- Wow.
- Rise and shine.
- Look at this.
- What?
"Who is Eden's
sexy new security?" No.
Hey, look at the bright side.
Someone was able to pay
their rent with that photo.
- That's a good point. Cheers.
- Oh. Cheers.
Did you hear that?
Mm-hmm.
Probably your pool guy.
Yeah, I saw him out back
earlier today.
- Okay. Thank God.
- Yeah.
So, a-admittedly, I have seen
some footprints here...
in the garden,
when I first arrived.
And I know you told me your
gardener's out of town, right?
You saw footprints outside
and you didn't think to tell me?
Yeah. You're right, I'm sorry.
I-I just...
I mean, you were busy.
And this isn't an excuse,
I wanted you to be...
to stay focused.
Do you think it's him?
I honestly don't know.
Can I ask you a question?
Christian. Do you trust him?
Yeah. We dated for six months.
Why?
It's just people in this
business can be crazy sometimes.
I've seen it time and time
again. People change.
Okay. Show me
some of your moves.
I'm sorry, my moves?
- Self-defense.
- Really?
It's okay. It's okay.
What's next?
Yeah. Tapping, okay?
Yeah.
No.
- Easy enough?
- Okay.
It's not easy if you don't know
what the other person's
capable of...
or...
if they have a better weapon.
Okay. That's good.
What's next?
Well, you could either find
their weak spot...
It's okay.
Or...
just wait for me to save you.
I was looking
for a second chance
But it was never
part of my romance
Caught in a shiver
the dream died and withered
No way out of the dark
Finally swallowed me whole
Felt like
my soul almost died
Ah, let's do the bridge
one more time.
You can give me
something better.
That was scratchy.
I-I-I need velvet.
Can you believe this song
was on her first album?
For a second chance
It really is a rebirth.
I actually did know that.
All right, one more time.
And this time coo, don't kaw.
Her voice is off.
Can't you tell?
Yeah. Well...
All right, I gotta go.
Okay, bye.
Okay, I think I've got something
for the overlay tracks,
but I need you to come back
on Friday and re-record.
Seriously?
She sounded great.
She always sounds great.
That was nowhere near
Eden-Chase great.
What have you been doing anyway?
I mean, never heard
your texture so sloppy.
Well, maybe your ears
are off today.
Look, I'm sorry, Ozzie.
I haven't been sleeping well.
- Maybe it's...
- Oh, that's it. Oh, no.
Or maybe, maybe it's because
you had your boy toy over
all weekend? What?
Y-you didn't think that I knew
you were at the restaurant
getting all hot and heavy
with Cruz
when you knew you had to be here
today to record?
We went to dinner
the other night.
I don't care what you had.
I just need you here Friday,
vocals ready to rock.
That means you've got to be
a very good little girl
this week.
Fine. She gets it, okay?
Are we good?
Oh, no complaints.
Some of your best work
comes from your break-ups.
I just need you here
full-on Friday, all right?
Okay, look,
I'm not your good little girl.
Put your hand past my waist
again, and we're done.
Okay, um...
Friday, be reborn.
You all right?
Anything I can do for you
before I make my rounds?
No, I think I'm just gonna go
send some emails
and go to bed early.
Hey, Eden.
Does he always pull that
inappropriate stuff with you?
Yeah.
He's just done so much for me
over the years,
it's hard to know
when to tell him to back off.
Guess I just had enough tonight.
Well, good for you.
You know your worth.
Well, I don't know
who's paying for it,
but it's sure as hell
not gonna be me.
Don't we have insurance
for that? Oh, uh-huh.
Well, if you'd like some
job insurance, go find some!
Colette, hey.
What's up?
Do they know
who it could have been?
They know nothing,
except that it was a homicide.
How do they know?
They didn't take anything,
but they did find
a star bandana at the scene.
It was the same one
that the guy was wearing...
the night that we were attacked.
It was his murder weapon.
But why would they kill Ozzie
if they're really after me?
Sometimes stalkers do
this sort of thing.
They close in on
the world around their victim.
They target their friends,
their colleagues,
their entire way of life.
Does that mean
we're all in danger?
Not if we catch this guy first.
Eden, are you okay?
Just so unreal.
Super unreal.
Yeah, so unreal,
I think I need a drink.
Same.
Nah. I'm good.
Still on the clock.
I'm really sorry
about the other night.
I'm patient. I can wait.
I really don't like the way
that guy watches you, though.
That's literally his job,
Christian.
Be a soldier
Five, six, seven,
cross it out, go.
Stomp.
Five, six, seven, go.
One, two, three, four,
fix, six, turn it out, boom!
- Whoo!
- Yes!
It's fine.
Hey.
Are we watering the gardens now?
Uh, you know,
I think Eden and the others
are up in the den,
if you're looking for 'em.
What are you doing, anyway?
You do realize there's
an entire sprinkler system
dedicated to this.
Is that blood?
It is.
I think a coyote got in here
and caught a parakeet.
It's too bad.
I really like the way they sing.
Okay.
Seven, eight, one.
Oh, my God.
That looked so great to me.
I think you ladies are done.
I agree.
I-I think we're done. Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Okay. Okay, okay.
So can we just remember
to get into the studio
before our fittings by Friday?
And just keep in mind that once
you're sewn in,
it can't be undone.
So, Dara, let's hold off
on the fatty Hawaiian food
till after the shoot, okay?
Sure. I'm gonna order us some
yummy, semi-healthy takeout.
Okay, so are we going back
into the studio
to re-record on Friday?
They sent the remix.
It sounds great.
There's absolutely no reason
to go back in.
Ozzie is...
was wrong.
- Okay, great.
- And actually...
I'm gonna be in San Francisco
this weekend,
so sadly I'm gonna miss
the festivities.
Festivities?
- Mm.
- Go on. Tell her.
So don't be mad.
We decided a little album
preview party would be fun.
And plus, your friends
would be super excited
to hear that remix.
Seriously?
An album-release party?
- Where?
- Here.
Next Friday. Just for you.
And you don't have to do
a damn thing.
We've, we've got it all covered.
- What?
- Kurt worked it out.
Look, I said nothing big,
just an intimate garden party,
fab food truck,
couple of dozen guests.
Look, you need this.
And it'll be good for you
before we go to Maui,
because once the album drops
and we go out on tour,
it'll be all work, no play.
Why do I feel like
there's a catch?
Just one performance
of your Reborn remix,
you know, to get the buzz going
on your social.
Look, PR said it'll be good
for us and the album, and the...
Yeah, hang on, you're suggesting
having a party here,
after everything
that's happened?
There'll be extra security
at the gate.
There'll be a list of names
at the door,
and if you're not on the list,
you don't get in.
And what about anywhere else
on the property?
That's why I hired you, unless
you don't think you can handle
it, in which case we need
to bring somebody else in
for the job.
All right! Okay, I have a ton
of work to do before I go.
I'll be back on Sunday. Okay?
- You'll be all right till then?
- I think so.
- Thanks, Colette.
- Okay.
- Have fun.
- You, too.
- I got it. Yeah.
- Thank you.
I know this was all your idea.
You know she's right.
You deserve this.
Hey. You good?
Isn't it weird to have a party
after, you know, Ozzie?
Oh, Ozzie was the poster child
for the show must go on. Right?
I, I honestly think
he would have
wanted you to have this party.
Have it in his,
have it in his honor.
Maybe I'll dedicate
Finally Free to him.
I think
that is a wonderful idea.
- To Ozzie. Cheers.
- Mm-hmm.
Cute.
There he is.
I was looking for you.
- How's it going?
- Good. You guys get finished up?
Mm-hmm, I was about to take off,
unless you wanna show me
your east wing.
- I'm flattered.
- Mm.
I'm kind of still
on the clock here.
Plus, Colette's pretty strict.
No guests.
Well, lucky for you,
I'm not a guest.
I've slept over many times,
just not that end of the house.
Sorry. Reactionary response.
Like I said, I'm flattered.
No, thanks.
Hey, what's wrong with you?
Nothing. Let's just go, please.
Okay.
Sparkling wine
and ice cream pairing, huh?
Don't judge me.
It's been that kind of day.
Besides, this is light bubbly
and I'm only gonna have,
like, two bites of this.
Yeah, I'm never gonna judge
someone for eating
peanut butter and pretzel
ice cream, are you kidding me?
Mm. You want some Prosecco?
Christian was too busy.
You know I hate drinking alone.
You know, sadly,
I draw the line at the bubbly.
- More of a whisky guy myself.
- Whisky, huh?
We have that, too.
You mind me asking what happened
with you and Christian?
Thought you guys broke up.
I mean, that's what
the tabloid said.
We did break up.
It's like we were both
just so busy.
Lee and I were both really busy,
but it was like we couldn't
stay away from each other.
Like, we had this unhealthy
addiction to each other.
Yeah, maybe it says you guys
can't open up to each other,
you know, for real, 'cause
of your past relationships.
Or maybe
you're not really in love.
Hard to say.
Women throw themselves
at Christian all the time,
just like they did with Lee,
but Lee cheated on me
all the time
even when
we lived together, so...
You think Christian's a cheater?
No, I don't.
I think he's like me.
Hard shell.
Through your disguise
But you're right. It is hard
for me to open up to him.
Well, you haven't had
a hard time opening up to me.
It's funny. What's that say?
I don't know,
just something about you.
You're easy to talk to.
Well, I did unload
my life story on you, too, so...
But that was the tequila.
- Mm.
- Told ya.
Well, what does whisky
do to you?
Mm...
That's a gamble.
No attraction
Satisfaction...
You know, ahem...
I think it's what you said
the day we hired you.
You said
that I'm probably surprised
when people treat me different
'cause I'm famous,
'cause I just wanna be treated
like a normal person.
You're right.
Well, hate to say this,
but I lied that day...
Liar liar
Yeah.
I also said
you were extraordinary.
But what I didn't say was that
it's not
because of your beauty...
Liar I know
Or your voice...
but because you're you.
Was that the whisky?
Nah.
Liar liar
I know you wanna start
a fire
Liar liar
I know you wanna start
a fire
Wait, wait, wait.
- What?
- I think we...
I have had too much to drink.
Eden, admit it.
There's something between us.
All right? We both know it.
Come on.
Yeah, I know, I just...
I have to go to bed.
Eden.
Hey. Hey!
Eden, can we talk about this
for one minute?
Please? Hey. Hey!
I just want to go to sleep,
okay?
- Fine, you can, after we talk.
- There's nothing to talk about.
I'm your boss, you're
my bodyguard. It was a mistake.
No, that's not all we are
to each other, and you know it.
Can we please talk about this
after we've both sobered up?
- I'm perfectly sober right now.
- Yeah, well, I'm not!
And I need to go to sleep.
Hey.
You know I'm only here
to protect you, right?
Yeah. Thank you.
So, wait,
he got physical with you?
No, he didn't hurt me. He ju...
It was scary,
the look in his eyes.
Okay, but that's
kind of his job, right,
like, to look intimidating
or whatever?
I mean, I guess.
Do you think
it may be bothered you
because you sort of wanted it?
He's my employee, Addison.
He's supposed to protect me
from the bad guys.
I can't have him here in the
position to become the bad guy.
Right, right. Okay, well,
what do you want to do?
Do you want me to come over?
Would you?
I mean, I'm sure it's fine.
I just wanna go to the studio
without him,
talk to Colette, see what
she has to say about it.
Okay, fine. I'll be there soon.
Okay, thanks.
- Good morning.
- Hey.
Thank you for the grapefruit
and coffee. It was really sweet.
And the apology?
I'm sorry again.
I didn't mean to make you upset
last night.
- I shouldn't have.
- Jackson, it's fine.
I was drunk,
I let my emotions over Ozzie
and Christian and the album
get the best of me. That's all.
So where are we headed to today?
Actually, I'm just going
into the studio
for a little bit,
it shouldn't take long.
I thought Colette said
you didn't have
to re-record the track.
Oh, yeah, she just has
some Maui travel stuff
she wants me to sign
before she leaves tomorrow.
Great. I'm gonna go get my keys.
Actually, um, Addison
is swinging by to pick me up.
And there's security at the
studio, so we should be fine.
- You don't want me to come?
- No-no, it's not that.
I just have these guys
coming with
the sound equipment. I thought
maybe you could let them in.
Of course.
Yeah. Whatever you need.
- Great.
- All right.
Oh, I'm just gonna go over there
and fire him immediately.
Okay, no, Colette,
I don't want this to get messy.
He just developed feelings
is all.
I think we should go easy
on him.
Do you have feelings
for him, too?
No, I don't.
Okay, not like the feelings
I have for Christian.
So why do you care
if I fire him?
Because I do care about him.
Maybe it's just not a good idea
for him to live in the house.
Okay, so I'll tell him
to collect his crap
and leave the premises
immediately.
We can get you
new onsite security.
Right before the party?
And-and you leave tomorrow?
That creep is still out there.
I just...
I don't think
it's the best idea.
Eden, do you think
this just could wait?
For what? What if he knocks down
her door next time, huh?
You know, I... Maybe
I'm just gonna cancel my trip.
No, no, Colette, you and Richard
just worked things out.
You should go. I'll be fine.
And I do feel safer
with him there
knowing that guy's out there.
Yes, and look, I will be right
by your side the entire weekend.
I don't think Jackson's gonna
try anything with me there.
Okay. Fine.
But just keep me updated
regularly, okay?
And when I get back, Mr. Reed
is off the property for good.
Okay.
- Thanks, Colette.
- Okay.
- Safe travels.
- Okay.
You guys don't have
too much fun tomorrow, okay?
- [Eden chuckles]
- We'll try.
- Here, mate.
- Thanks, mate.
- Oh. Hey, guys.
- Hello.
- Hey, you're back.
- Wow!
You brought out the arch.
It really is a special occasion.
Yeah.
Hey, thanks for doing this.
You are the best assistant
a girl could ask for.
Anything for you,
my pop princess.
Oh, I even sent
don't-save-the-date
to your enemies,
so they're gonna know
we're gonna be having fun
without them.
Manana. Oh, yeah.
And I'll be over tomorrow
at 4 p.m. sharp
to fix that face.
Oh, yes, thank you.
- Hey, has anybody seen Jackson?
- Oh, yeah, he was here earlier.
He said he didn't have anything
nice to wear for the party,
so he had to go to Encino
and get his bestest blazer.
- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, here, let us help you.
- Yeah.
- Sure.
- Thanks.
Jimmy?
Is that you?
Hello?
Hello?
Jimmy, this isn't funny.
No matter how many times
you ask,
I'm still not going out
with you.
Hello?
Boo!
H-h-help!
Jackson, you're back.
Did you get your suit?
- Hey, Addison.
- Hey, Jackson.
Hope you don't mind
I'm crashing the house
for this weekend's festivities.
Ah, not my house.
- More the merrier, right?
- Absolutely.
Um, you look stunning.
Thank you.
- Are you okay?
- It's Colette.
She's not answering my calls
or texts. It's just weird.
Maybe she's still on the plane
to San Fran.
What time is her flight?
Okay, yeah.
Maybe it's just that.
Maybe. Now look,
you need to stop your worrying.
Okay? Tonight is your night
to shine.
Yeah?
See?
- It's you, baby. It's you!
- Okay.
I was looking
for a second chance
But it was never
part of my romance
- She looks so good.
- So good.
Withered
no way out of the dark
Finally swallowed me whole
Felt like my soul
almost died
But I saw a thing
give me hope through the...
Is that Lee who just walked in?
You gotta be kidding me.
What is he doing here?
More importantly,
who invited him?
It wasn't me. I swear.
From the ashes
feel my fears go
Like a phoenix
like a phoenix
Like a phoenix
feel my soul reborn
Like a phoenix
like a phoenix
Like a phoenix
feel my soul reborn
See my life
much clearer now
I can hear my heart...
That was amazing!
So hot!
- My goddess.
- Mm. Thanks, guys.
- Look at this, guys.
- Nice remix, Ede.
Lee. What are you doing here?
I was invited,
by Colette, of course.
She didn't tell you?
Colette...
What makes you think
you would be welcome?
No, you know what,
you need to leave
because you're not welcome here,
no matter what that text says.
Nice to see you, too, Addison.
Gang's all here, huh?
Lee, I think there's been
some sort of misunderstanding.
- No, I can read texts just fine.
- Yeah?
Well, how about I send you
a text to remind you
that you cheated on her and
treated her like crap for years?
- Why would she want you here?
- Christian, it's fine.
No, no, no.
Cruz has clearly
got a lot to say.
But why don't you go write
a crappy little song about it
and let Eden speak for herself?
Let's just go out front and have
a private discussion, huh?
- You guys...
- Get your hands off me.
I came to support Eden
and I was invited.
You need to leave!
Hey. Lee, right?
Eden, let, let's get you
out of here.
I'm fine.
Hey, you need to tell everybody
to leave, okay?
Okay, okay. Yeah. Ahem.
All right, everyone!
Uh, we're gonna call it
a little bit early tonight.
But thank you, everyone,
for coming out this evening
and supporting Eden.
So, uh, buenas noches.
Bye now.
Hell, man,
where are you taking me?
I'll find my car just fine,
thanks.
Whoa. Whoa!
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
- You all right?
- I'm fine.
I wish I'd gotten in a right
hook before Jack stepped in.
I mean, where was he?
What took him so long?
- I have no idea.
- You know what?
You could totally write
a hit song about this.
- Yeah.
- I might do that.
Okay, okay. We're leaving.
Mm, mm. All right. Mm.
Mwah. Mwah.
Thank you for coming. Bye.
- Love you.
- Love you.
Bye, mama.
Mm! Hey.
At least you got to perform
your song for everyone
and look really great
while doing it.
- Thank you.
- All right, bye, mama.
You were great. You look great.
- Thank you.
- You look great. My goddess.
- Thanks.
- Hey, take care of him.
- Get home safe.
- All right.
All right.
I'm gonna take a shower.
I think that's a good idea.
- Well, that was a bust.
- Yeah.
What do you think happened
to Jackson and Lee anyways?
I don't know.
Maybe Jackson killed him.
Hm.
My God, what?
Find me a boyfriend.
Let's get tequila.
So weird. I still
haven't heard from Colette.
And of all people,
why would she invite Lee?
Ede.
There is, there is something
that I have to tell you.
It's about me and Lee.
Back when I had just started
working for you,
and you and him
were on the rocks...
Wait. Did you hear that?
- What was that?
- I heard it before.
I think it's coming
from the storage room.
We'll check up.
What is that?
I don't know.
Oh, my God!
No, no, no, please. Help me.
Wasn't that the guy
who attacked you?
Yeah, I think so.
It was the same outfit at least.
Well, what was he doing
in your storage room?
I have no idea.
We need to find Christian
and call the police now.
Wait. Where the hell
is my phone?
Mine's gone, too.
In my eyes
Christian!
Take me up to the sky
Oh my light
You're the guy
in my eyes
I'm gonna focus in your...
Eden?
You're so good to me in bed
You're so good to me in bed
You're my all
Christian!
Where is Jackson?
This is what
they call Euphoria
I'll do any...
"Tess?"
The lyrics of your song
really say it all, don't they?
Reborn.
You were heartbroken by Adam
in the garden of Eden,
so you ate
from his poisoned apple,
and then died
so that you could be reborn.
Only, you got the story wrong.
Yeah. Sit.
Sit, please.
In the Bible it was Eve who ate
the poisonous apple first.
Eden, come on.
But your stupid little song
was like passing
that poisonous apple
to my sister.
Your music poisoned her.
It made her think
it was the only way out,
that she could be reborn, that
the pain would just go away.
Jackson, I didn't mean...
Y-you didn't mean to make
millions on a song
that my sister used
to kill herself?
Huh. Okay.
It's a pop song, Jackson.
It's a song
about female empowerment.
If your sister
didn't know the difference...
No, no!
You don't get to talk, Addison,
because it's not all on Eden.
No, you see, it's on Ozzie,
that son of a bitch
who produced it.
It's on Colette who endorsed it,
which, by the way,
I will say I'm indebted to her
because after I turned her head
around backwards on her body,
I used her cell phone
to invite Lee,
the ex who inspired
the song, whatever.
His body's chilling
in your garden right now.
- By the way, don't let me...
- Jackson.
- Please...
- And then, one second, please.
It's on you,
sweet, sweet Addison,
the BFF.
See, you screwed Lee...
behind her back
and helped break her heart.
Addison...
But it is mostly on you, Eden.
How dare you revamp and remix
this despicable song?
This track
will never be re-released,
not after the killings
that are about to surround it.
- Jackson.
- No. Listen.
Think about all the people
I'm going to save...
because I bet
it will be someone's sister.
Jackson, where's Christian?
Please tell me
you didn't hurt Christian.
Oh.
Mm, I'm just kidding. He's fine.
I did a number on his skull.
I'm sorry.
We already called the police.
Did you?
Yes.
With what phones?
Oh! What did you think of Stu?
Because he is your biggest fan.
I met him on an Eden Chase
fan site, and he is just...
He's... He's crazy.
But he was the perfect pawn
for my perfect plan.
You hired him to attack me?
I would say I groomed him.
You see, I let him sneak
onto the lot where I took a job
right after hearing that it was
where you were gonna shoot
your new music video.
And then I just gave him
the opportunity
to have you to himself,
but really, if I'm being honest,
it was just so that I could
save you.
You know, earn your trust.
Yeah, not very original, but...
You'll never get away with this,
you realize that?
'Cause even if we die, everyone
knows you're here with us.
Yes, Addison, good.
That's why I was so grateful
that Stu showed up again here,
helped me get this job,
and then, God bless him,
he showed up again,
and that's when I caught him.
And I realized
that if I just hung on to him,
well, then he could be the
fall guy for all the killings
that are happening around here.
You're sick. You need help.
Come on, Eden,
I thought you were listening!
I'm the hero.
Oh, my God, let me spell
this out for you, okay?
I see two villains
in front of me.
So...
who is ready
for the final chase?
Run.
Where are you going?
Oh, my God!
Okay! Sure.
Let's get some fresh air.
He's coming.
Hide.
Ede, it was before
we were friends.
Okay, I was dumb and insecure,
and I really thought
y'all were over.
Addison, it's in the past.
It doesn't matter.
You've been there for me.
You're my only true friend.
Oh, my God, Ede.
I think he heard us.
Shh! Let's go.
Come on, let's go. Go, go.
Oh, come on.
Like you didn't want him dead.
Ow!
Come here!
- Come here.
- No! No! No, no, no.
Jackson, no, no, no.
Addison, Addison.
Addison, Addison!
I really wouldn't do that
if I were you.
You know, I'm not responsible
for what happened
to your sister.
All my life
I have felt responsible
for how fans respond to me.
But I won't take responsibility
anymore.
I couldn't control the path
that she chose,
and you can't change it.
Killing me won't change it.
Maybe not.
But I will feel
so much better...
knowing that my plan worked...
that I did to you
exactly what your music did
to my sister.
Made her feel comfortable...
and safe.
You know,
I did learn a lot from you.
You never know
what a person is capable of...
especially if they have
a better weapon.
Eden...
Christian.
What was that?
Probably just the stalker
that's tied up
in the storage room.
Okay.
Well, for what it's worth,
I really liked your remix.
Yeah? Me, too.
I'm so glad you're okay.
We will be okay.
Cry
