00:00:15SHARPONJACK'S FIRST GRAMMY MOTHERFUCKER!
00:00:18F.O.N.I.S.
00:00:20Phoenix Walker.
00:00:23World-famous rock star, infamous fuckboy,
00:00:27and the man I never wanted to see again.
00:00:31But when you need to pay your dad's medical bills
00:00:33and someone offers you 10 grand a week to babysit your ex,
00:00:37no is a word you can't use.
00:00:40Oh!
00:00:42All right, party's over. Everyone out!
00:00:45Hey, pretty. Why don't you come join us?
00:00:47You know, I'd love to, but I was kind of hoping that we could have...
00:00:54a little party of our own.
00:00:57Everyone get the fuck out.
00:00:59Get the fuck out!
00:01:08You look familiar. Have we fucked before?
00:01:15Yeah, Phoenix.
00:01:18We fucked.
00:01:19Once before you fucked me over.
00:01:30What the fuck?
00:01:33Remember me now, asshole.
00:01:37Lemon.
00:01:45Oh, hey, big back.
00:01:54Are your clothes drinking or have you gotten fatter?
00:01:57Of course she's getting fatter.
00:01:58Careful, Godzilla.
00:01:59You might cause an earthquake.
00:02:00Wow.
00:02:02Creative, Draven.
00:02:04I thought you and Sabrina would have broken up by now
00:02:06since she screwed your brother at prom.
00:02:08I guess it's true love, huh?
00:02:10How about you shut your filthy pig mouth?
00:02:13You know what?
00:02:14A tattoo would go really well with your dirty mouth.
00:02:18What do you think about...
00:02:19lard ass?
00:02:30Hey!
00:02:31What's going on over there?
00:02:32Shit, it's Mr. White.
00:02:33What do you think about it?
00:02:35Get her.
00:02:36Get her.
00:02:43Lennox!
00:02:44Phoenix Walker?
00:03:01Of all the rooms I had to barge into my crushes?
00:03:08She the fucking sign?
00:03:09These girls, they're after me and...
00:03:12Did you get into a fight?
00:03:15Yeah, something like that.
00:03:18Where'd you go, Lenny?
00:03:20Come on.
00:03:24Give me your panties.
00:03:25My what?
00:03:26Do you want me to help you or not?
00:03:35Go.
00:03:38Get back here, fat ass!
00:03:42Sabrina, what the fuck?
00:03:49Phoenix!
00:03:50We were just...
00:03:51Ruining my after-sex cig?
00:03:56Yeah, you were.
00:03:58Get the fuck out before I lose my patience.
00:04:03She's not here.
00:04:04Let's go.
00:04:05Okay, get out.
00:04:13Now.
00:04:18Looking hard into your eyes.
00:04:23Actually, you could go half a step higher.
00:04:26Excuse me?
00:04:27The song you were singing, you were singing it in the original key, but with your range,
00:04:32I think your voice would really shine if you went half a step higher.
00:04:38Actually, never mind.
00:04:40I'm just, I'm gonna go.
00:04:41Wait.
00:04:42My band's having an audition in a couple weeks.
00:04:51You should stop by rehearsals and hang out, if you want.
00:04:55Maybe I will.
00:04:57Thanks.
00:04:57Can't believe I've hung out with the Phoenix Walker over the past two weeks.
00:05:27It feels like I've been dreaming.
00:05:31Oh, relax, Lennon.
00:05:33It's the last day of school, and I'm having a huge graduation party tonight.
00:05:36You have to come.
00:05:37Yeah, but you've never invited me to parties.
00:05:40Girl, that was before.
00:05:41You're hanging out with Phoenix Walker now.
00:05:42You're practically one of us.
00:05:44Please say you'll come.
00:05:46Yeah.
00:05:46Okay.
00:05:47Thanks.
00:05:48Great.
00:05:51And tonight, we'll make that fat ass regret ever touching Phoenix.
00:05:55This isn't so bad.
00:06:04Maybe tonight I am one of them.
00:06:07But where's Phoenix?
00:06:11Lennon, you're here.
00:06:13You must be starving.
00:06:14Let me show you where the buffet is.
00:06:15No, actually, I'm okay.
00:06:16Everybody, come on over.
00:06:20Tonight, I planned something really special for dinner.
00:06:24Roast pork.
00:06:25Smothered in barbecue sauce.
00:06:31What?
00:06:32Would you mind doing the honors?
00:06:36Lennon, you didn't actually think that Phoenix cared about you, did you?
00:06:54That would be Disney-level delusion, and that would just be sad.
00:06:58Fatties don't get hotties.
00:07:00You know, I'm thinking that I should take a picture for him.
00:07:05Maybe he's in the mood for pork chops.
00:07:08Sabrina, what the fuck is this?
00:07:19I know Sabrina already cut off your fucking balls, but if you touch her again, I'm going
00:07:23to cut off your tiny little fucking dick, too.
00:07:25You're just mad because Lennon's got a functioning brain, and all you got is that scrawny little
00:07:31fucking ass.
00:07:31Stop staring.
00:07:57I know I look stupid.
00:07:59No.
00:08:00You look good.
00:08:01What happened there?
00:08:08My dad happened there.
00:08:11It's been happening since I was, like, three.
00:08:15Baseball dad.
00:08:19Crowbar.
00:08:21Sigs.
00:08:27And...
00:08:27That's why I have to win my audition tomorrow and get the fuck out of here, or else he's
00:08:32going to never let me play again and I'm going to fucking die, or better yet, I'm going to
00:08:36become just like him.
00:08:37No, Phoenix, you saved me.
00:08:39You're not him.
00:08:40You can never be him.
00:08:43I don't know how I could ever thank you.
00:08:45I do.
00:08:47Sing something for me.
00:08:56Oh, my God, no.
00:08:56Hey, please.
00:08:57Please.
00:08:57I'm as tough as a nail, I'm as sharp as a blade.
00:09:18I'm still lying here in the mess you made.
00:09:28Wow.
00:09:34What was that song?
00:09:37It's mine.
00:09:39I wrote it.
00:09:40I just...
00:09:41I've never sang it in front of anyone.
00:09:44It's horrible.
00:09:45I know.
00:09:46No, it's fucking perfect.
00:09:48You're fucking perfect.
00:09:57You're fucking perfect.
00:09:57But my voice, when the night is gone, she keeps me up, when the night, when the night
00:10:08comes out, my eyes have been falling, so wrong, so wrong, so wrong, so wrong, so wrong, so wrong.
00:10:18I'm pursuing this life, you and me, so you wanted to.
00:10:33He gave me the courage to sing my song, the way he looks at me, he sees me, he really does.
00:10:40I wanted Phoenix.
00:10:41I wanted Phoenix.
00:10:48I want Phoenix.
00:10:49You're sharp as a blade.
00:10:53And I'm still lying there.
00:10:56God damn!
00:10:58Look at that fucking music.
00:11:00Going around singing like a pussy instead of getting a fucking real job.
00:11:05You know what you are, Phoenix?
00:11:06You're a worthless piece of shit.
00:11:08You know what, Dad?
00:11:09What?
00:11:09You want to see worthless piece of shit?
00:11:10Look in the fucking mirror.
00:11:12Well, thank you for that, son.
00:11:15How much you like that guitar, huh?
00:11:18That guitar's gonna go.
00:11:19No, Dad, no!
00:11:20Stop!
00:11:21Ah!
00:11:24Dad, stop! Stop! Stop!
00:11:26Hey, if I catch you ever soon again, I swear I'm gonna break every finger you've got
00:11:31so you won't be able to play anything ever again.
00:11:33That's the fuck?
00:11:35Piece of shit.
00:11:36You're lucky I don't break that thing.
00:11:59Dude, producer Hank Doherty just walked in.
00:12:02Oh, shit.
00:12:03Holy shit.
00:12:04When he's scouting originals only.
00:12:07There's only one spot left, man.
00:12:09We're not gonna win unless you pull one out of your ass.
00:12:14Now!
00:12:17That's...
00:12:17I'm gonna break every finger you've got so you won't be able to play anything ever against.
00:12:21I have to win my audition tomorrow and get the fuck out of here.
00:12:24What else?
00:12:24He's gonna never let me play again and I'm gonna fucking die.
00:12:26I'm as tough as a nail, I'm as sharp as a...
00:12:31I need to win and get the fuck out of here, even if it means breaking Lennon's heart.
00:12:37I have an original.
00:12:38Yes!
00:12:40Let's fucking go, bro.
00:12:43Yeah, Sabrina.
00:12:45You mean me at the bar?
00:12:47Right now?
00:12:50Phoenix!
00:12:52Phoenix!
00:12:54Lennon, your man's been in there for like 15 minutes.
00:12:56Phoenix, are you in there?
00:13:03You're gonna kill it tonight.
00:13:10That was really hot, Phoenix.
00:13:13They call me?
00:13:17Excuse me.
00:13:26After last night, you turned around and you slept with my bully?
00:13:36You think that I don't know that I'm not pretty enough or skinny enough for you?
00:13:40I thought we were friends.
00:13:41And I was okay with that.
00:13:43And so you led me to believe that there was something more.
00:13:47It's your fucking fault, then.
00:13:49Stop!
00:13:51I hate you!
00:13:54And I never want to see you again!
00:13:56You're the only girl I've ever loved, Lennon.
00:14:01But love doesn't survive in a shit town like this.
00:14:04Not for someone like me.
00:14:09Let's go.
00:14:10We've got a show to play.
00:14:26And now, the new number one hit song from a new rock band, Sharp Objects.
00:14:31Sharp as a blade
00:14:33But I'm still lying here
00:14:38Phoenix dumped me and stole my song?
00:14:44Phoenix was the first person to ever make me feel special.
00:14:47I thought he'd be by my side through everything.
00:14:54Then he used me, broke me, tore me apart.
00:14:59So I told myself, never again.
00:15:03A fire lit up inside me that day.
00:15:08And I let it consume me.
00:15:11Not for anyone else, but myself.
00:15:16I rose up from the ashes and became the me I was always meant to be.
00:15:22So your memory's coming back to you, huh?
00:15:29So what hits first?
00:15:31You stealing my song, the fact that you blew up, or you using drugs because deep down you know that you're really a fraud?
00:15:38Fraud?
00:15:39Okay, Len, if you hate me so much, then why the fuck are you on top of me right now?
00:15:46Your manager, Chandler, hired me as your sober companion.
00:15:49I guess I'm the only girl that can resist your fucking charm because I hate you so much.
00:15:54Yeah.
00:15:55Len, sober companion.
00:15:57It's a big fucking fall from daddy's Ivy League princess.
00:16:00My dad's sick.
00:16:01That's why I took the job.
00:16:03I'm not like this spoiled, junkie asshole would understand.
00:16:06I'm keeping this job, jackass.
00:16:09And you will follow my rules.
00:16:13So rule number one, don't call me Len.
00:16:16Tell you what, Len.
00:16:17You get me high, I will call you whatever the fuck you want me to.
00:16:21Mm-hmm.
00:16:39Rule number two, don't even think about getting a fix, or I'll leave your ass cupped for TMZ to find.
00:16:50You know what, Len, face it.
00:16:51You're just fucking mad because you want to fuck me and you hate it.
00:16:53I know you.
00:16:54You think that you know me so well, Phoenix.
00:16:59You see, the Len that you knew four years ago?
00:17:03She's dead.
00:17:07You killed her the night you stole her song.
00:17:09So rule number three, we're not friends.
00:17:15This is strictly business.
00:17:18I'm officially here as your sober companion.
00:17:21And I'm unofficially here to haunt you forever, Phoenix Walker.
00:17:25After eight weeks, 40 shows, every single time you see me, I want you to think about what you did.
00:17:33And I want you stone cold sober when you do it.
00:17:36I want you to think about what you did.
00:18:06Already cheating?
00:18:13Nice try.
00:18:14Lenin.
00:18:17This is the biggest tour of my life.
00:18:22Can't let Lenin distract me like this.
00:18:25Fucking play, Lenin.
00:18:27Let's play.
00:18:28If I never see your face again, I'll be the happiest.
00:18:35Woohoo!
00:18:37Hey!
00:18:38Party is over.
00:18:40Get the hell out now.
00:18:41Fuck you!
00:18:43Get out of there!
00:18:45Hey!
00:18:47You guys don't want to come play?
00:18:49Woo!
00:18:49What a child!
00:18:51Oh my god, is that Phoenix Walker, the rock star?
00:18:58He looks like he's high off his ass.
00:19:00No, no, no, no, excuse me, excuse me.
00:19:02Phoenix, goddammit!
00:19:03Step back, ma'am.
00:19:04We're taking him to the station.
00:19:06And to think, my daughter's a fan.
00:19:09No, no, please.
00:19:09I'm a sober companion.
00:19:11Please just let me have one minute with him, please.
00:19:13Oh, yeah, right.
00:19:14No, no, Phoenix gets arrested.
00:19:17I'll get fired, and there's no way to pay for my dad's treatment.
00:19:21Honey, our daughter Lenin.
00:19:23You were picking her up at school.
00:19:30I'm Lenin, Dad.
00:19:33I got a new job today.
00:19:35It's much better than bartending at the club.
00:19:38I'm going to do whatever it takes to take care of you.
00:19:40I promise.
00:19:44You said that your daughter's a fan, right?
00:19:53How about some tickets to tomorrow's show?
00:19:56No one gets hurt, no property damage,
00:19:58and you and your family get to enjoy a good day and a good show?
00:20:06Okay, free tickets.
00:20:08But if it happens again, we're booking them.
00:20:11Thank you so much, officer.
00:20:14Mother, there's nothing to see in you.
00:20:16Move.
00:20:17Back up.
00:20:22Holy fuck, Lenin.
00:20:24You'd bribe a fucking cop to keep this job and fuck with me?
00:20:27What the hell was that?
00:20:28I left you alone for five minutes and...
00:20:30Oh, my God.
00:20:34You're not high right now, are you?
00:20:36You're fucking with me.
00:20:37You're doing this on purpose just to get me fired.
00:20:40Don't act so fucking high and mighty.
00:20:41I know you only took this job because you want to fuck with me.
00:20:43You don't need the money.
00:20:44Just go back to your fucking dad.
00:20:46You splash.
00:20:46Not everything is fucking about you.
00:20:48You're a fucking asshole.
00:20:49Tell me something I don't fucking know.
00:20:54Wait.
00:20:55I've never seen her cry.
00:20:57Lenin?
00:20:58Lenin!
00:20:59Hey!
00:20:59Hi.
00:20:59Hi, hi.
00:21:00It's good to see you.
00:21:01Got a quick question for you.
00:21:02Do you mind?
00:21:02What the actual fuck just happened?
00:21:04Chandler, I can explain.
00:21:10What's there to fucking explain?
00:21:12It's your first day.
00:21:13First day!
00:21:14And there are videos of this asshole in a fountain with fucking groupies already making headline news.
00:21:19You have one fucking job.
00:21:22Keep this asshole sober.
00:21:23It was a job that I foolishly thought no one could screw up.
00:21:27Not even a stupid little dropout like yourself.
00:21:29Wait.
00:21:29She dropped out of college?
00:21:31Chandler, just hear me out.
00:21:32No, no, I'm sorry.
00:21:34The hearing you out part is over.
00:21:36Now it's the hearing me out part.
00:21:38You are fired.
00:21:39That's the contract you signed.
00:21:41Congratulations.
00:21:42You can go back to whatever backwater strip club you crawled out of.
00:21:46Probably the only job you won't come to.
00:21:48Okay, Chandler.
00:21:48So congratulations to all of us.
00:21:50I'm just going to go ahead.
00:21:50I said fucking enough, Chandler.
00:21:51Excuse me?
00:21:55She's the one who put you in this position.
00:21:57No, she's not.
00:21:57I fucking did.
00:21:59I lied to her and I told her I was taking a shower.
00:22:00And she came and found me and got the cops to drop the case
00:22:02while you were sitting in your fucking lazy ass in the sauna
00:22:04getting a fucking manicure.
00:22:06Careful how you speak to me, Fanex.
00:22:07I'm your manager.
00:22:07Yeah, then you should fucking know
00:22:09that if you fire her,
00:22:11you're going to see a lot worse than me in a fountain
00:22:12with a couple fucking groupies.
00:22:14Fine.
00:22:16One more shot.
00:22:17Music to my fucking ears.
00:22:19Are you fucking serious?
00:22:33Why the fuck are you staring at me?
00:22:34Do you join me or get the fuck out?
00:22:41Get a fucking hold of yourself.
00:22:43That's a very fucked up way to say thank you.
00:22:51Wait.
00:22:54Why'd you drop out?
00:22:56Why were you working at a strip club?
00:22:57Why do you care?
00:22:59Rule number three.
00:23:00We're not friends.
00:23:02Remember?
00:23:03Right.
00:23:07What the fuck are we then?
00:23:08Come on, Lennon.
00:23:13Tell me the truth.
00:23:14Why'd you drop out?
00:23:15Why'd you start working at a strip club?
00:23:17Why?
00:23:18So I can pour my heart out to you
00:23:19like I did four years ago
00:23:20and you can just fuck me?
00:23:21I can fuck any girl I want,
00:23:23Lennon, you know that.
00:23:24This is not about that.
00:23:26It's about you and me.
00:23:29So tell me.
00:23:31Why are you here?
00:23:35I got a new job today.
00:23:36It's much better than bartending at the club.
00:23:40I'm going to do whatever it takes
00:23:41to take care of you.
00:23:43I promise.
00:23:51I really want to tell him.
00:23:56Is this my song?
00:24:02You got it tatted on you
00:24:03like some fucking metal?
00:24:05I made your fucking song
00:24:05a worldwide sensation.
00:24:07You're welcome.
00:24:07Oh, I'm sorry.
00:24:08All the credits go
00:24:09to the almighty Phoenix Walker.
00:24:11I worked my fucking ass off
00:24:12for this band
00:24:13and for my fucking career.
00:24:14You can't even admit it
00:24:15that everything you have
00:24:17is because of me.
00:24:19Oh, that's why you're back.
00:24:21Want a repayment
00:24:22for what you think you deserve?
00:24:23Okay.
00:24:28Here you go.
00:24:29I don't know why the fuck
00:24:31your daddy cut you off
00:24:32but that should cover it.
00:24:37I'm here because
00:24:38I have to be Phoenix
00:24:39and I'm staying.
00:24:40So go ahead.
00:24:42Get shit faced.
00:24:43Get yourself killed.
00:24:44I don't fucking care
00:24:45what you do.
00:24:46Just don't drag me down
00:24:47and I'm with you.
00:24:49Never again.

00:25:13Last song
00:25:13and we're out of here.
00:25:15Sharp Objects.
00:25:19Go on, Phoenix.
00:25:21Look into my eyes
00:25:22and sing the song
00:25:23you took from me.
00:25:24Stop!
00:25:31We're not playing
00:25:31this fucking song tonight.
00:25:33The fuck, dude?
00:25:34Sharp Objects is our anthem.
00:25:35The hell you mean
00:25:36you're pulling it?
00:25:37Yeah, Phoenix.
00:25:38Why?
00:25:39Just leave me the fuck alone.
00:25:41All of you.
00:25:50Here.
00:25:51Let me help.
00:25:53Hey.
00:25:54You're Lennon.
00:25:55Phoenix's sober companion.
00:25:57Uh, I'm George.
00:25:58I'm here to replace
00:25:59the original bassist, Josh.
00:26:02Oh, yeah.
00:26:03He got into a car crash.
00:26:04It's terrible.
00:26:05Yeah, it's terrible.
00:26:06But you know,
00:26:07nobody made him
00:26:07do all that coke.
00:26:10George,
00:26:11why do you think
00:26:11Phoenix started using drugs?
00:26:13He's always been a fuck-up.
00:26:15If you ask me,
00:26:16I'd say stay the hell away.
00:26:17No, he wasn't always like this
00:26:19and I'm hired to help him.
00:26:21Look,
00:26:22you seem really nice
00:26:24Lennon.
00:26:25But some people
00:26:26can't be saved
00:26:27and you shouldn't let
00:26:28people like that
00:26:29drag you down.
00:26:32What the fuck
00:26:33is going on?
00:26:34What the fuck
00:26:36is going on?
00:26:38What do you think?
00:26:42Phoenix, man,
00:26:43just chill.
00:26:44Come on.
00:26:46Touch her again
00:26:47and I'm gonna break
00:26:47your fucking jaw.
00:26:49Don't worry,
00:26:49you'll still be able to play.
00:26:52Come on with me.
00:26:53God, Phoenix,
00:26:57what is the matter
00:26:58with you?
00:26:58You're welcome.
00:26:59That creep was
00:26:59slobbering all over you.
00:27:00You know what?
00:27:00He was being nice.
00:27:01Ever heard of that word
00:27:02or do I need to spell it out
00:27:03for you?
00:27:03You like nice guys now?
00:27:05Yeah,
00:27:06I'm sure he's gonna
00:27:06fucking rate you poetry
00:27:07and buy you flowers
00:27:09until your eyes shine
00:27:10like the fucking stars.
00:27:11But guess what,
00:27:11Lennon?
00:27:13Nice guys don't fuck
00:27:14like me.
00:27:14Nice guys don't
00:27:24steal songs either.
00:27:25Ten seconds with that
00:27:26asshole and you'll
00:27:26be fucking bored,
00:27:27Lennon.
00:27:27He's not for you.
00:27:28You need someone
00:27:29that's gonna challenge you.
00:27:30Show you new things.
00:27:35You've shown me
00:27:36things, Phoenix.
00:27:40You've shown me
00:27:41how childish and selfish
00:27:42a grown-ass man can be.
00:27:43You know what I think?
00:27:44I think you'd rather
00:27:45spend all night
00:27:45arguing with me
00:27:46than ten seconds
00:27:47in bed with that
00:27:47fucking nice guy.
00:27:48I'm what?
00:27:48So I'm not allowed
00:27:49to fuck other guys
00:27:50except you?
00:27:52You sure liked it
00:27:53when we fuck
00:27:53four years in.
00:27:57I wanted Phoenix.
00:28:05Come on, Lennon.
00:28:06I know you're
00:28:07dying to fuck me.
00:28:09Just say the word
00:28:09and I'll take you
00:28:10right back to that
00:28:11night four years ago.
00:28:14I don't need you
00:28:25to take me back
00:28:25to that night, Phoenix.
00:28:27I go back to that
00:28:28night all the time.
00:28:28So let's get real.
00:28:39Question one.
00:28:41What came first?
00:28:44Weed, shrooms,
00:28:45molly, coke.
00:28:46What the fuck is that?
00:28:48Sober training.
00:28:49I am your sober companion,
00:28:50aren't I?
00:28:51So question two.
00:28:53When did you start using
00:28:54drugs and alcohol
00:28:55to numb yourself?
00:28:55This is fucking bullshit.
00:28:57I'm leaving.
00:29:01I'm doing my job, Phoenix.
00:29:04We can do this
00:29:05on our own
00:29:06or I can leave you
00:29:07chained to the chair.
00:29:08It's your choice.
00:29:10So question three.
00:29:12Why did you start
00:29:13using drugs?
00:29:15Was it because
00:29:16you realized
00:29:17that your whole entire
00:29:18career is based
00:29:19on a stolen song
00:29:20and that deep down
00:29:21you're really a fraud?
00:29:24Or is it because
00:29:25you know that deep down
00:29:26you screwed up
00:29:27and there's nothing
00:29:27that you can ever do
00:29:28to make it right?
00:29:33Aren't you tired?
00:29:36Don't you want to
00:29:37let it all out?
00:29:39Well, you're in luck
00:29:40because I was there
00:29:41when you fucked up.
00:29:44You fucked me up.
00:29:46So go on.
00:29:47Admit it.
00:29:50Admit that you...
00:29:51I know.
00:29:52I fucking know, Lennon.
00:29:53You think I don't
00:29:54fucking know
00:29:54that I hurt you?
00:29:55I fucking think about it
00:29:57every fucking day
00:29:57for the last four years
00:29:58it's haunted me.
00:30:00But I was 18.
00:30:02Eight fucking teen
00:30:03and my dad beat
00:30:04the shit out of me
00:30:04my whole life
00:30:05and when I saw a chance
00:30:06to get out of that hell
00:30:07I took it.
00:30:07Remember?
00:30:08I showed you.
00:30:09Bat.
00:30:11Crowbar.
00:30:13Six.
00:30:13And I tattooed
00:30:15your song
00:30:16over my scars
00:30:17because your song
00:30:18changed my life.
00:30:19You changed my life.
00:30:22You said you want
00:30:23to fucking ruin me.
00:30:25I can tell Lennon
00:30:25you still care.
00:30:29I was 18 too, Phoenix.
00:30:31And you got out
00:30:32of your hell
00:30:32by putting me
00:30:33through mine.
00:30:34I know.
00:30:35I know.
00:30:36And I don't expect
00:30:37you to forgive me.
00:30:39But I wish that you
00:30:40would stop looking at me
00:30:41like you hate me.
00:30:42And I wish I could
00:30:45kiss you the way
00:30:46I used to
00:30:46when you would
00:30:46kiss me back.
00:30:47Phoenix, no.
00:31:14I...
00:31:14What the fuck?
00:31:16You're fucking
00:31:17recording me?
00:31:18No, I was just
00:31:19trying to...
00:31:19You were what?
00:31:20Trying to get
00:31:20my fucking confession?
00:31:22I fucking opened up
00:31:23to you and you
00:31:24manipulated me.
00:31:24You didn't tell me shit.
00:31:26It's not true.
00:31:27Okay.
00:31:27Question one.
00:31:28Why the fuck
00:31:28did you drop out
00:31:29of Dartmouth?
00:31:30Question number two.
00:31:32Why the fuck
00:31:32did you work
00:31:32at a strip club?
00:31:37Question number three.
00:31:37Why the fuck
00:31:38did you come back
00:31:38into my life?
00:31:42That's what I thought.
00:31:43I guess we both
00:31:48have a reason
00:31:49to hate each other
00:31:49now.
00:31:50Let's hit my room,
00:32:04girls.
00:32:04Let's rock that fucking
00:32:05show.
00:32:06I'm about to rock your
00:32:06fucking night.
00:32:07I can't imagine
00:32:21where I would go
00:32:24if we didn't happen
00:32:27to you and me both.
00:32:30When would I get
00:32:32the things that we know?
00:32:36We don't gotta talk.
00:32:38it's just signaling
00:32:40to go.
00:32:43Wow.
00:32:45Look who the fuck
00:32:46decided to invade
00:32:47our little humble party.
00:32:48I'm Phoenix's sober companion.
00:32:53I need a moment alone
00:32:55with my client.
00:32:56Are you fucking serious?
00:32:58Yeah,
00:32:58who the hell
00:32:58do you think you are?
00:33:00We're not going anywhere.
00:33:02Phoenix doesn't need
00:33:02a sober companion
00:33:03when he has us.
00:33:05Hi, baby.
00:33:06Look,
00:33:07I know that your frontal cortex
00:33:08hasn't fully developed yet,
00:33:10but let me break it down
00:33:11for you.
00:33:12Either you go
00:33:13into that bathroom
00:33:13or I call security.
00:33:15Security?
00:33:16And then you can spend
00:33:17a cozy night in jail
00:33:18until mommy and daddy
00:33:19come to bail you out.
00:33:20So what's it gonna be?
00:33:21Fine.
00:33:22Let's go, girls.
00:33:33Wow.
00:33:35Not gonna lie,
00:33:36that kind of term yellow.
00:33:40I don't give a shit
00:33:41who you fuck, Phoenix.
00:33:43But if you slip,
00:33:44it's my head.
00:33:46All right,
00:33:46so you're just here
00:33:47working on good merits
00:33:48and that didn't bother you
00:33:49at all?
00:33:50No,
00:33:51it doesn't bother me.
00:33:52Not at all.
00:33:53I even have a little
00:33:54something to prove to you
00:33:55how little it does bother me.
00:34:00Lennon?
00:34:03You see, Lennon,
00:34:04now I'm a little offended
00:34:05because I know
00:34:06it's been four years,
00:34:07but Larnge,
00:34:09you know I'm bigger than that.
00:34:10Do you have any more drugs
00:34:14on you?
00:34:16I don't know.
00:34:18Why don't you find out
00:34:19for yourself?
00:34:23Go on.
00:34:25Search me.
00:34:29Don't think I won't,
00:34:31Phoenix Walker.
00:34:31I'm counting on it,
00:34:33Lennon, Michael.
00:34:51You're enjoying this?
00:34:54Not as much as you.
00:34:55I'm not done yet.
00:35:02Uh-uh.
00:35:04Eyes up here.
00:35:21I guess you're clean.
00:35:22You're not fucking
00:35:26leaving me again.
00:35:36Why's she in that
00:35:37fat ass so long?
00:35:39She's just jealous.
00:35:41Phoenix would never
00:35:42fuck someone
00:35:43who looks like her.
00:35:45Lennon.
00:35:47No.
00:35:48Go and entertain your guests.
00:35:49Isn't that why
00:35:50you brought them back
00:35:51to your hotel room?

00:40:31And that losing him was hard.
00:40:34And I think that's why you started using.
00:40:36You don't fucking understand.
00:40:41Then help me understand.
00:40:43I was fucking there.
00:40:49I was in the fucking car.
00:40:51It was my fucking fault.
00:40:54Chandler and the PR team made it seem like he was alone,
00:40:55but I was in the fucking car,
00:40:57and I knew that he was too high to drive,
00:40:58and I was too fucked up to give a fuck.
00:41:03So I watched my best fucking friend take his last breath.
00:41:06Hey, come here.
00:41:08It's okay.
00:41:11It's okay.
00:41:12It's okay.
00:41:13I'm just like my fucking dad, Len.
00:41:18I'm a fucking...
00:41:20I'm a fucking monster,
00:41:22and I fuck up everything that I touch.
00:41:24No.
00:41:25No, no.
00:41:25Don't say that.
00:41:28No, look at...
00:41:29I said this four years ago,
00:41:31and I'll say it again.
00:41:33You're nothing like him.
00:41:35You can never be him.
00:41:37Do you think that...
00:41:38that Josh would forgive me?
00:41:41But more importantly,
00:41:45he'd want you to forgive yourself.
00:41:48Everybody makes mistakes, Phoenix.
00:41:50It's what we do after that matters.
00:41:52Easy for you to say.
00:41:54You've never made a mistake in your life.
00:41:55You have perfect grades.
00:41:56You're Ivy League.
00:41:57I still remember dropping you off at your family mansion.
00:42:00Phoenix,
00:42:01my dad is dying.
00:42:03That's why I got a job bartending at a strip club.
00:42:06I'm all that he has.
00:42:07And I won't give up on him.
00:42:12Your band
00:42:13and your fans,
00:42:15they need you.
00:42:17You can't give up.
00:42:21Hey, Len.
00:42:26Will you stay with me
00:42:28for the night?
00:42:29Please.
00:42:32Please.
00:42:33Hey, I'll sleep on the floor.
00:42:34You can sleep on the bed.
00:42:35Just please stay.
00:42:37Okay.
00:42:40Okay.
00:42:40Just scooch.
00:42:51Lenin,
00:42:53I'm really glad that you came back.
00:43:07Coffee?
00:43:25Coffee?
00:43:29I still must be dreaming, Mr. Walker.
00:43:31You might be,
00:43:35Miss Michael.
00:43:38Because
00:43:38I got you a gift.
00:43:41Last night,
00:43:42Phoenix finally opened up to me.
00:43:44Has he really changed?
00:43:46Have we changed?
00:43:47I know you need the money,
00:43:56and I've been asking around,
00:43:58and that's a really fair price
00:43:59for a song like Sharp Objects.
00:44:06You're paying me 500 grand
00:44:08for the song that you stole from me?
00:44:12You're paying me 500 grand
00:44:14for the song that you stole from me?
00:44:16I thought that's what you wanted.
00:44:18God, you're unbelievable.
00:44:21Lenin, you're not fucking going anywhere.
00:44:23You're not shutting me out again.
00:44:24You know, I envy you, Phoenix.
00:44:26What's it like
00:44:27to have the guts,
00:44:28the audacity
00:44:29to waltz to a girl
00:44:30and pay her 500 grand
00:44:31after stealing everything from her?
00:44:32There's one fucking song, Lenin.
00:44:34Get over it.
00:44:36Get over it.
00:44:38Do you have any idea
00:44:39what it's like for me
00:44:41when I hear that song?
00:44:44On the radio,
00:44:45at a cafe,
00:44:45at a fucking karaoke bar.
00:44:48Every time I hear you sing it,
00:44:50it rips my heart out.
00:44:53Okay, well,
00:44:53if I fucking rip your heart out
00:44:54and you hate me so much
00:44:55then I bet you wish
00:44:56I died in that car crash too,
00:44:57don't you?
00:44:58Are you kidding me?
00:45:00When I saw that it wasn't you
00:45:01on the news,
00:45:02I did cry my eyes out.
00:45:05No, please.
00:45:07Just don't leave me.
00:45:08Don't leave me.
00:45:10Why?
00:45:12Because it was never
00:45:13about the song, okay?
00:45:14It was about you.
00:45:15I loved you
00:45:16and you broke my heart.
00:45:20I loved you
00:45:21and you broke my heart.
00:45:23I didn't know that.
00:45:24Oh, you didn't know?
00:45:27Well, let me walk you
00:45:28down memory lane.
00:45:30You had me sing
00:45:31my song
00:45:31and then you stole
00:45:32it from me.
00:45:33You took my virginity
00:45:35and then you slept
00:45:37with my high school bully,
00:45:38Sabrina.
00:45:40So now,
00:45:41you don't get to just
00:45:42pay me 500 grand
00:45:44to clear your conscience
00:45:45because everything
00:45:48that you took from me
00:45:49is just dead and gone.
00:45:51Lennon, I have a question
00:46:06for you.
00:46:10Will you be my date
00:46:12to the rock gala tonight?
00:46:14That's so sweet of you,
00:46:15George,
00:46:16but I...
00:46:17You know what?
00:46:25I'd love to go
00:46:26to the gala with you,
00:46:27George.
00:46:28That's awesome.
00:46:29I'll see you tonight.
00:46:43Date.
00:46:43Yeah.
00:46:44Yeah.
00:46:49Well,
00:46:50that was hard to watch.
00:46:53Almost poked my eye out.
00:46:55No one's stopping you.
00:46:56Don't you think
00:46:56it's a little irresponsible
00:46:57to be going on a date
00:46:58while you're supposed
00:46:59to be working?
00:46:59Ever heard of multitasking?
00:47:01I'm your sober companion,
00:47:02Phoenix,
00:47:03not your prisoner.
00:47:04Plus,
00:47:05if it bothered you so much
00:47:07that George asked me,
00:47:08why didn't you?
00:47:10Exactly.
00:47:12Don't worry.
00:47:13I'm sure that your
00:47:13brainless bimbos
00:47:15will step up for you.
00:47:16Now, if you'll excuse me,
00:47:18I have a date waiting for me
00:47:19and a rock gala
00:47:20to prep for.
00:47:26Dude,
00:47:34look alive.
00:47:35Top players
00:47:36in the music industry
00:47:37are here.
00:47:38I'm not fucking
00:47:39drinking tonight.
00:47:43You guys seen Lennon?
00:47:44Whoa.
00:47:45Phoenix Walker
00:47:46to dying a drink
00:47:47and caring about a girl?
00:47:48Get me a snowboard
00:47:50because hell just froze over.
00:47:51Hey,
00:48:08wow, dude,
00:48:09your girl's on fire.
00:48:10She's not my fucking girl.
00:48:12Hey.
00:48:17You okay, bro?
00:48:18Yeah, I'm fine.
00:48:22Hey, what's up?
00:48:27Oh, my God.
00:48:29Who is that?
00:48:31She's a movie star
00:48:32or something?
00:48:33Still stuffing your face, Lennon?
00:48:35Some things never change, huh?
00:48:37Sabrina?
00:48:37What is my high school bully
00:48:39doing here?
00:48:41Sabrina,
00:48:42what are you doing here?
00:48:43What do you think?
00:48:44Phoenix invited me.
00:48:46Phoenix asked Sabrina,
00:48:47the girl he cheated on me with,
00:48:48to be his date?
00:48:50You look surprised.
00:48:52You're not still chasing after him
00:48:54four years later
00:48:55like a sad stray, are you?
00:48:56We're not in high school anymore,
00:48:57Sabrina.
00:48:58I don't have to take your shit.
00:48:59It was your own fault
00:49:00that Phoenix dumped you.
00:49:02You could have dieted,
00:49:03exercised, anything.
00:49:04But if somebody has to look
00:49:05at this every day,
00:49:07they're going to get sick.
00:49:09It's disgusting.
00:49:11You know what else
00:49:11I find disgusting?
00:49:13The fact that you're still
00:49:14the same mean girl
00:49:15that you were in high school,
00:49:16looking for any scrap of attention.
00:49:17Are you still giving out
00:49:19blowjobs for free
00:49:20or do you charge
00:49:20minimum wage now?
00:49:25You're going to regret that, Lennon.
00:49:26Because you see,
00:49:27I came prepared.
00:49:32Good evening, everyone.
00:49:34My name is Sabrina
00:49:35and I'm Phoenix Walker's girlfriend.
00:49:38We have a very special guest
00:49:40with us tonight,
00:49:40an old friend,
00:49:42Lennon Michael.
00:49:43And we've prepared
00:49:45a surprise for her.
00:49:47You ready, Lennon?
00:49:55Oink! Oink! Oink! Oink!
00:49:57Get that here, fat ass!
00:49:58Fatdies,
00:49:59don't get bodies.
00:50:00Don't cry, Lennon.
00:50:10Don't fucking cry.
00:50:11I gotta run.
00:50:12God, why won't my feet move?
00:50:14This is bad.
00:50:15Let's get Phoenix.
00:50:18God, Lennon,
00:50:19is that really you?
00:50:23You see now, Lennon?
00:50:24You can squeeze yourself
00:50:25into a designer dress
00:50:26every day of the week,
00:50:27but at the end of that day,
00:50:29this is what people
00:50:31will see of you.
00:50:32You know,
00:50:32I almost wish we had
00:50:33some barbecue sauce here now.
00:50:35Relive the good old days.
00:50:37Although I spot a little bit
00:50:37of chocolate cake
00:50:38and I feel like that
00:50:39will do the trick.
00:50:47And you know what goes
00:50:50great with ganache?
00:50:52Wine.
00:50:57Stay the fuck away
00:51:05from my girl.
00:51:08Stay the fuck away
00:51:09from my girl.
00:51:14You okay?
00:51:20No, no, no.
00:51:21Get to fucking swoop in
00:51:22like the nice guy.
00:51:23She was your fucking date
00:51:23and you stood there
00:51:24like a pussy.
00:51:25And you.
00:51:27Phoenix, I was just...
00:51:29You were just fucking
00:51:29running your mouth
00:51:30and ruining my gala.
00:51:31Yeah.
00:51:34You know,
00:51:35I should have done this shit
00:51:36four years ago,
00:51:37but better late than never, right?
00:51:43Don't ever fucking
00:51:44touch her again.
00:51:45I'm the biggest fucking
00:51:46rock star in the world
00:51:47and I can ruin you
00:51:48any fucking way I want.
00:51:51Security, get her
00:51:51the fuck out of here.
00:51:54Get off of me.
00:51:55Get off of me.
00:51:56Oh, Phoenix,
00:51:57you set me up.
00:51:59Ask me out.
00:52:00Ask like you want to fuck
00:52:01and then you're just
00:52:01going to abandon me
00:52:02like you did in the audition
00:52:03four years ago.
00:52:04Let go of me.
00:52:06Oh, fuck you.
00:52:07Phoenix didn't sleep
00:52:09with Sabrina
00:52:09the night you dumped me.
00:52:21I have to get out of here.
00:52:23I have to be a good...
00:52:52Don't get mad.
00:52:53I, I, you're disgusting.
00:52:55Lennon, is that really you?
00:52:56Somebody has to look at this every day.
00:52:58You're disgusting.
00:52:59You're disgusting.
00:52:59You're nothing.
00:53:01Lennon?
00:53:05Lennon?
00:53:09What are you doing?
00:53:13It's none of your fucking business.
00:53:15I see.
00:53:18Come here.
00:53:22How are you doing this yourself, Lennon?
00:53:41It's the same reasons why you drink it.
00:53:45It helps calm me down.
00:53:48It's really fucked up.
00:53:50Yeah, well, so is inviting Sabrina to be your date.
00:53:53I didn't ask her to be my date.
00:53:55I called her there to call her out about what she did to you.
00:53:58And you think that humiliating her in front of hundreds of people,
00:54:01that that's just going to make everything okay?
00:54:04Hurting people, that's, that's Sabrina.
00:54:07That's not me.
00:54:08So you hurt yourself instead?
00:54:10I'll come here.
00:54:21Nobody's perfect, Lennon.
00:54:24But from where I'm standing, you're pretty fucking close to it.
00:54:26Four years ago, the night that we broke up,
00:54:35did you really have sex with Sabrina?
00:54:40Did you really have sex with Sabrina?
00:54:43After last night you turned around and you slept with my bully?
00:54:46Lennon, I hate you and I never want to see you again.
00:54:51I never had sex with Sabrina.
00:54:54There's only one girl I've wanted for the last four years.
00:54:57You, Lennon.
00:54:58And I'm tired of fucking waiting for you to admit that you want me too.
00:55:01So, you made me believe that you slept with Sabrina
00:55:11so you could steal my song behind my back?
00:55:13I'm sorry, Lennon.
00:55:15I was fucking young and I was scared and I was selfish
00:55:17and I know that I stole your song.
00:55:20You fucking stole my heart.
00:55:23And I've never been in love with anyone else
00:55:25and I can't fucking lose you again.
00:55:26I really loved you, Phoenix.
00:55:32I know you did, Lennon.
00:55:35I never stopped loving you.
00:55:56You drive me fucking crazy, you know that?
00:56:13I'm very crazy.
00:56:15Every bit.
00:56:15My room or yours?
00:56:36What about both?
00:56:43Hey.
00:56:44Hey.
00:56:45I was wearing this ring the day we got signed.
00:56:53And I've worn it to every show since.
00:56:55It's kind of like a lucky charm for me.
00:56:58I want you to have it.
00:56:59Whoa.
00:57:00Really?
00:57:01Or are you sure that you're not going to need it again?
00:57:04No.
00:57:05Maybe you know.
00:57:06Hey.
00:57:06Hey.
00:57:15Hey.
00:57:25Hey.
00:57:37Hey.
00:57:38Hey, Phoenix.
00:57:52You miss your old man?
00:57:56Dad.
00:57:57You gonna say hi?
00:57:59What the fuck are you doing here?
00:58:01Can't I just swing by and pay my son a visit?
00:58:06Phoenix, I...
00:58:08Who's your new girlfriend, Phoenix?
00:58:11Fucking business, Dad.
00:58:12Oh, okay.
00:58:13Well, anyway, I got a little money problem.
00:58:1710K should be good.
00:58:21In fact, I raised your fucking ass for 18 years.
00:58:2518 years of beating the fucking shit out of me.
00:58:27How the fuck could I forget, Dad?
00:58:30Well, if my fucking son won't help me,
00:58:33maybe his chick will.
00:58:34Hey, hey, chick.
00:58:35I told you I would break your fucking hand.
00:58:38I told you how I remember.
00:58:44I told you how I remember.
00:58:48Phoenix, no.
00:58:49He's not worth it.
00:58:53My son has grown to be a man just like his daddy.
00:58:56You're an abusive piece of shit.
00:58:59Phoenix is nothing like you.
00:59:01So why don't you leave before I have security throw your ass out?
00:59:04You're feisty, aren't you?
00:59:07Listen, Missy.
00:59:08You want me to leave, I'll leave.
00:59:10But, uh, tell me this.
00:59:12Aren't you supposed to be my son's sober companion?
00:59:16What?
00:59:16Why are you taking a shower at 8.30 in this hotel room?
00:59:19Tell me that.
00:59:20This is good.
00:59:21I want that money in my bank account by noon, son.
00:59:25If not, I'm gonna have to make a visit to TMZ or your manager or...
00:59:30We're both.
00:59:34Nice to meet you.
00:59:35Have a good day.
00:59:43It's gonna be fine, Lennon.
00:59:45I'm gonna wire him the money, and he's gonna leave us the fuck alone.
00:59:47We shouldn't have to.
00:59:49Phoenix, it's too complicated.
00:59:51Don't fucking play the It's Too Complicated card on me.
00:59:54We're way past that.
00:59:57I'm ready to pursue this, Lennon.
01:00:04Are you?
01:00:10Are you?
01:00:10Last night was a mistake, and it can't happen again.
01:00:24What part of I'm ready to pursue this are you not understanding?
01:00:27Oh, I understand it all too well.
01:00:29A boy four years ago once told me that when he took my virginity and my song...
01:00:34I'm pursuing this life.
01:00:36You and me.
01:00:37Those words don't mean what you think that they mean.
01:00:41And I won't let them hurt me again.
01:00:45What do I have to do to get your trust back?
01:00:48You want my confession?
01:00:50Fine.
01:00:50I'll tell the whole fucking world I stole your song.
01:00:52I don't give a fuck about my band.
01:00:53I don't give a fuck about the career.
01:00:54I give a fuck about you right now.
01:01:07What the fuck, Lennon?
01:01:11You think that you're heroic?
01:01:14Romantic?
01:01:15Wrong.
01:01:16Phoenix, you're a liability.
01:01:18We spent one night together, and your dad is already trying to blackmail us?
01:01:22If I lose this job, what's going to happen to my dad that's dying in a hospital bed right
01:01:29now as we speak?
01:01:30Listen, we can fix this.
01:01:31We'll figure it out.
01:01:33There's no we.
01:01:35Phoenix, you kiss me, they fire me.
01:01:38You cross the line, they blacklist me.
01:01:41Whatever you do, I pay the price.
01:01:44And you don't give a shit.
01:01:47Because you don't have to.
01:01:50But I do.
01:01:54The moment you stole my song, we're in two different worlds.
01:01:59You're a star.
01:02:01And I'm a nobody, trying to keep my head above water.
01:02:05So please, don't say you love me.
01:02:09Unless you're ready to be the reason that I lose everything.
01:02:13Tonight is the night, folks.
01:02:20We've got rock music's latest sensation, Grammy winner Sharp Objects.
01:02:26So Phoenix, during this tour, you haven't played your mega hit Sharp Objects once.
01:02:32Can you tell your fans why?
01:02:33Um, yeah, Sharp Objects is, and it's always going to be the song that was closest to my heart.
01:02:46But, um, I'm never going to sing it again.
01:02:53Ever.
01:02:54Hey, hey, hey, hey, why the fuck would he just do that?
01:03:08Anyone in class would like to fucking share him right here?
01:03:11This is a goddamn nightmare.
01:03:13He's trying to kill the man.
01:03:14He's trying to kill my fucking man!
01:03:16Phoenix, what the hell was that?
01:03:21I said I wasn't going to sing the song I stole from you anymore.
01:03:25Isn't that the confession you want?
01:03:26That wasn't confessing.
01:03:28That was running away.
01:03:30Look, I know that I was mad that you stole my song.
01:03:34But I realized that it gave you a band.
01:03:38It gave you a family that you've never had, and I take comfort in that.
01:03:43I told you, Len.
01:03:45You said you wanted to ruin me.
01:03:48But even after everything we've been through, you're still kind.
01:03:52Fuck you, Phoenix Walker.
01:03:57I can't sing that song, though.
01:04:00Every time I hear it, I think about you.
01:04:04It's your song, not mine.
01:04:11We'll get through this.
01:04:13I promise.
01:04:16Our band's biggest hit was stolen from Lennon?
01:04:21I gotta do something before this ruins the band.
01:04:23Chandler, what is this?
01:04:36I packed for you.
01:04:37Because I'm ending your contract early, you no longer work for the band or for Phoenix.
01:04:43What?
01:04:44Why?
01:04:44Don't worry.
01:04:45I'm still going to pay you the full amount.
01:04:47And also, sign that NDA, you get a million dollars.
01:04:52Copyright transfer.
01:05:01You know, I...
01:05:02I could care less how or when Phoenix took your song from you.
01:05:06All I know is it's now our motherfucking mega hit.
01:05:11And we're not just going to let it go for nothing.
01:05:14So, sign the paper, take the money, and walk away.
01:05:22You never claim rights to the song.
01:05:29You never see Phoenix.
01:05:32Ever.
01:05:32Again.
01:05:33Thank fucking Christ.
01:05:35You're paying me off to take my song from me?
01:05:38Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:05:38Who's taking what?
01:05:40I'm not taking anything.
01:05:41I am buying your song.
01:05:44It's business.
01:05:45Besides, you need that money for your father, don't you?
01:05:53So, sign the NDA.
01:05:56Leave all of this bullshit behind you and go see your dad.
01:06:00I'm sure he misses us, though.
01:06:02I can't sign this, Chandler.
01:06:13My dad didn't raise me to be a coward.
01:06:15And I'm not for sale.
01:06:17Look, is it that you're slow or just straight-up fucking stupid?
01:06:22You don't sign these papers.
01:06:24I fire your ass anyway, and you never see a goddamn penny.
01:06:28Really?
01:06:29Are you sure about that?
01:06:30Yes.
01:06:30The last time you tried to fire me, it didn't go so well.
01:06:34I said fucking enough, Chandler.
01:06:36I said fucking enough, Chandler.
01:06:37Use the fuck out of me.
01:06:39I am doing this for the band.
01:06:43You don't care about them.
01:06:44Phoenix is just a cash cow to you.
01:06:46But I care.
01:06:47And I'm not going to abandon him for money.
01:06:50And I won't give up the rights to my song until I get what I deserve.
01:06:54Not owed.
01:06:54Deserved.
01:06:55Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do.
01:07:03Fine.
01:07:04This stubborn bitch won't walk away.
01:07:06I'll make her go away.
01:07:08Hello?
01:07:16Hello?
01:07:18My dad's in the ICU.
01:07:21I'm on my way.
01:07:22I'm on my way.
01:07:52Do you have anyone you can call?
01:07:54Yeah?
01:07:55No, it's just me.
01:07:57Lennon, pick up your fucking phone.
01:08:16Fuck, Lennon, pick up.
01:08:20Phoenix, man, we gotta go.
01:08:21We got to go.
01:08:22Have you seen Lennon?
01:08:23She's not picking up her fucking phone.
01:08:25Did that troublemaker bail?
01:08:27That works for me.
01:08:28Since when do you care about some girl, man?
01:08:30Come on, giddy up.
01:08:31We're going to be late to the fucking awards.
01:08:32Let's go.
01:08:33It's not like her to fucking bail on the band,
01:08:35especially not tonight.
01:08:40Shit, unless.
01:08:42Uh, Phoenix, I'm right fucking here, man.
01:08:46Miss Michael, I need you to leave the room now.
01:08:56No, no, no, please.
01:08:58I'm not ready yet.
01:09:10No, no, no, no, please, please, please.
01:09:13Let me just see him one more time, please.
01:09:15I'm not ready yet.
01:09:16I'm not ready yet.
01:09:22I'm sorry.
01:09:24I'm sorry.
01:09:27Hey.
01:09:30I got you.
01:09:38Phoenix?
01:09:39You're not alone, Lennon.
01:09:40I'm never going to let you be alone again.
01:09:46Please just take me home, Phoenix.
01:09:56My dad used to be a songwriter.
01:10:01He used to tell me that someday I'd be a fantastic songwriter,
01:10:04just like him.
01:10:05I guess we'll never know.
01:10:10All that's left is his house,
01:10:13his books,
01:10:14and his vinyls.
01:10:19And you.
01:10:21I know he's looking down on you right now.
01:10:23And he knows that you're the most gorgeous thing he's ever created.
01:10:30And you're an amazing songwriter.
01:10:32And somehow an even more amazing person.
01:10:37Phoenix, thank you for ditching the award, really.
01:10:41There's so many awards, Lennon.
01:10:43There's only one you.
01:10:44Can I show you something?
01:10:55Open it.
01:11:04Phoenix, these are...
01:11:05Songs.
01:11:07I wrote them for you.
01:11:08Over the last four years,
01:11:11every time I'd end up missing you,
01:11:13I'd just sit down and write a song.
01:11:15The pages went really fast, I guess.
01:11:19Look, Lennon,
01:11:20I am so fucking sorry
01:11:22that I stole your song
01:11:24and that I broke your heart.
01:11:30Will you sing for me?
01:11:34Please.
01:11:35Please.
01:11:38Yeah.
01:11:59Strangers in my sheet
01:12:02Finding peace in the bottom of my whiskey
01:12:07Love songs on repeat
01:12:13Nonsense words with an okay melody
01:12:18But I'm waiting
01:12:22To see what I can do
01:12:26And I'm waiting
01:12:28Cause I'm afraid to lose you
01:12:32And I'm waiting
01:12:34For once I wanna be true
01:12:37And I'm waiting
01:12:40Waiting
01:12:43Waiting
01:12:43For you
01:12:45I don't know what to do
01:12:53I don't know what to do
01:12:55But I...
01:12:59I...
01:13:00Phoenix...
01:13:00You stole something else from me
01:13:03You stole my heart
01:13:07But I don't want you to keep it forever
01:13:11I don't know what to do
01:13:17But I don't know what to do
01:13:19But I just wanna make it
01:13:19separatists
01:13:19And I don't need to keep it
01:13:20But I don't know what to do
01:13:22Which is why I am
01:13:34Yeah, I need you to set up a live stream for me in the band in an hour
01:13:39Have an announcement
01:13:40And no, don't tell Chandler
01:13:42No PRFs, no managers, nothing
01:13:44Just me and the boys, okay?
01:13:46Okay
01:13:46I'm gonna make it right, Lennon
01:14:02I'm not gonna lose you again
01:14:03Ever
01:14:04Oh, shoot, I think I forgot my phone
01:14:23Okay, I got it
01:14:25Goodbye, Dad
01:14:33I miss you
01:14:35Don't worry, sweetie
01:14:36You're gonna reunite with your daddy soon
01:14:38No, no!
01:14:41Come on
01:14:42Lennon?
01:14:46Oh, God, there she is
01:15:02Good morning, sunshine, you sleep well?
01:15:06Vance?
01:15:08Abusing your own son isn't enough?
01:15:10Now you want to add kidnapping and assaulting to the list?
01:15:12Oh, God, I hate yapping women
01:15:16Oh, God, I hate yapping women
01:15:16Drive me fucking nuts
01:15:18What do you want?
01:15:18What do you want?
01:15:19What do you want?
01:15:20Well, the hot shot manager of my son paid me, send you a message
01:15:25Fucking NDA, sign it, stay out of my son's life forever
01:15:29I already told Chandler that I'm not for sale and I'm not leaving Phoenix
01:15:44You say that now
01:15:45But I got ways of making you crack
01:15:48You know, I've had plenty of years of experience on my son
01:15:52He's probably told you that
01:15:53I already told Chandler that I'm not for sale and I'm not leaving Phoenix
01:16:01The hell, you bitch
01:16:11Look what you did
01:16:12Fuck, Lennon?
01:16:15Fuck it
01:16:16Lennon!
01:16:18Oh, you're gonna get it now
01:16:22Oh, jeez, you bitch
01:16:25Lennon!

01:16:30Looks like my piece of shit son does care for you
01:16:32I haven't paid
01:16:34Make you disappear
01:16:36Man, I guess I get to decide
01:16:38How I'm gonna do that
01:16:40You're a dead man walking, motherfucker!
01:16:48You're a sorry, disgusting fucking piece of shit, motherfucker!
01:16:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, Phoenix
01:16:53Better yet, I'm gonna become just like him
01:16:55No, Phoenix, you saved me
01:16:57You're not him, you can never be him
01:17:00But you're lucky I'm not you
01:17:05Oh, that's my boy
01:17:10I knew you couldn't hurt your daddy
01:17:13He won't
01:17:14We can't make any promises
01:17:15Come on, Lennon, let's shut down the station
01:17:18Fuck the duck
01:17:19Come on, come on, come on, you guys
01:17:21Come on, yeah, jeez
01:17:22Phoenix, come on

01:17:26Rotting fucking jail, Dad
01:17:28Shh, okay, I'm going
01:17:31Lennon, I'm so sorry
01:17:37I thought it was too late
01:17:38I thought I was gonna lose you
01:17:39It's never too late
01:17:41You're here now
01:17:42And that's all that matters
01:17:43We gotta go
01:17:45I set up a live stream with the band
01:17:46I'm gonna tell everyone
01:17:48Strong Objects is your song
01:17:49And you're mine
01:17:52Okay, but there's someone
01:17:55That we need to talk to first
01:17:56Okay
01:17:58Hey, guys
01:18:07So, um
01:18:10I called you guys here
01:18:12Because I have to confess that
01:18:14I didn't write Sharp Objects
01:18:16I know it's our biggest fucking song
01:18:19It's our biggest fucking hit, but
01:18:20Lennon wrote it
01:18:23And I stole it from her four years ago
01:18:25So I set up a live stream
01:18:27And we're gonna confess to the fans that
01:18:29I stole it
01:18:31And there's gonna be fucking backlash
01:18:33And it's not just gonna be pointed at me
01:18:34It's gonna be pointed at all of us
01:18:35And I'm sorry
01:18:37I'm not trying to drag you guys down with me
01:18:38But I have to be honest
01:18:39And I'm gonna take accountability for it
01:18:41Don't you fucking say that
01:18:44We're a band
01:18:48Band is family, okay?
01:18:50Family don't fucking quit on each other
01:18:53Whatever it is
01:18:54We're gonna get through it
01:18:56And we'll rise
01:18:58Yeah, like a
01:18:59Like a fucking phoenix
01:19:01Thanks, guys
01:19:04There's just one more person we gotta deal with
01:19:12All right, you guys got me for exactly two minutes
01:19:21What's
01:19:22Lennon
01:19:26Surprised to see me alive and well?
01:19:33What's that supposed to mean?
01:19:35It's supposed to mean you paying Phoenix's dad to
01:19:38What was that again?
01:19:39Make me disappear
01:19:40Are you high?
01:19:43This is crazy
01:19:44Lennon, I hired you to make sure he stayed off the drugs
01:19:48We're gonna need to find a new sober companion
01:19:50Guess your little friend opened up to the police
01:19:56And it looks like we're gonna need a new band manager
01:19:59Sneaky fucking bitch
01:20:03Are you fucking blind?
01:20:06I'm the only motherfucker protecting this man
01:20:09She's using you
01:20:10You're just fucking protecting your own payroll, Chandler
01:20:12You know there'd be no fucking band without Lennon and her song
01:20:14Please tell me you did not tell these losers about you stealing her song
01:20:18I fucking did
01:20:19Because I'm fucking done with the lies
01:20:20And we're done with you
01:20:21Motherfucker
01:20:22No
01:20:23Police should be here in a second
01:20:25We got a live stream to get to
01:20:26Oh, yeah, that really sucks
01:20:32Enjoy prison
01:20:33You won't be able to get a manicure there
01:20:35God damn it!
01:20:40You can't fire me!
01:20:43I'd fire you!
01:20:44You talentless fucking infant!
01:20:50Sure about this?
01:20:52Sure
01:20:53Alright guys, we should have a million viewers
01:21:03Hey everyone
01:21:07Thanks for joining us
01:21:08Sharp Objects has
01:21:09Come a long way
01:21:11And it's only taken four years
01:21:13And a few songs
01:21:14And one truly incredible person
01:21:17But today it's time for me to be honest
01:21:20Our mega hit
01:21:22Our anthem
01:21:23Sharp Objects
01:21:24Was not written by me
01:21:25I stole it
01:21:27From someone who believed in me
01:21:29And someone who helped me believe in myself
01:21:32I'm just losing their shit right now, dude
01:21:35I know, look at the comments
01:21:36They're mad
01:21:37She is the only girl that I've ever loved
01:21:41And I think it's about fucking time
01:21:44That I give her the stage that she deserves
01:21:46You ready?
01:21:52We weren't ready
01:21:55I'm tough as a nail
01:21:59Sharp as a blade
01:22:02But I'm still lying here
01:22:08In the mess that you made
01:22:11Oh, check it out
01:22:29Views are soaring
01:22:30Past 1.5 million
01:22:32And they love Lennon, bro
01:22:34They work on board
01:22:35I know, this is awesome
01:22:36I know your dad was listening
01:22:39And he is so fucking proud of you
01:22:41And your song
01:22:42It's not my song, Phoenix
01:22:45It's our song
01:22:46Lennon, I fucked up
01:22:52And I've never been sure of anything in my life
01:22:56But one thing that I know
01:22:57Is there's not a day that goes by
01:23:01Where I don't think about you
01:23:02Lennon, Michael
01:23:07Will you marry me?
01:23:15Yes
01:23:16Yes, I will, Phoenix Walker
01:23:18Wait, you won't need your lucky ring anymore?
01:23:26I already told you, Lennon
01:23:27I don't need it
01:23:28I have you
01:23:29I'm pursuing this
01:23:31Lenn
01:23:32For the rest of my life
01:23:34The rest of our lives
01:23:36What the fuck?
