[tense somber music playing]

[indistinct chattering]

[Lillian] Round about
the cauldron go,

in the poisoned entrails throw.

Sweltered venom, sleeping got,

boil it first in
charmed pot.

[Witches] Double double
toil and trouble.

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

[audience applauding]

[suspenseful music playing]

[soft, somber music playing]

He's here.

Olivia.

He's here, sweetheart.

[giggling]

Oh wait, one sec.

[giggling]

You okay?

[Olivia] Yeah.

Here we go.

Like he'll notice.

- You ready?
- Mmhmm.

Oh sweetie, don't
forget to breathe!

[giggling]

Oh!

- You look beautiful.
- Thank you.

[indistinct]

Breathe.

Oh!

Oh you promised me this is
the last time, sweetheart.

An addict's promise
ain't worth shit.

You know that.

[laughing] Oh, come on.

Hi. Mike, right?

[Mike] Yes.

I've got to go.

Check in soon.

Like we said on the phone,

don't let him
out of your sight.

These first few days
can be very delicate.

Don't give him any money.

Make sure he shows
up for the I.O.P.

[Lillian] Oh, okay.

[Mike] Okay. It'll be great.

Oh, thank you.

Thanks for everything.

Thank you, Mike.

- We'll see you again, right?
- Absolutely.

- Thank you, bud.
- Of course.

Okay. Okay. Come on.

Okay, okay, okay.

Oh my god, you look so good.

[reverent music playing]

Pop.

You know, I think he would
have liked my last album.

Oh, he would have
loved them all.

We got our son back, Raffy.

Yeah. I don't know.

I don't think he's, uh,

listening from up there.

I think it's kind of a,

eh, Pops how's the
party going down there?

Ah.

So I, uh...

she's pregnant.

What?

You don't like it.

No I...

It's, it's beautiful.

It's gorgeous.

I know what I'm doing, Mom.

I am thrilled,

for both of you.

[papers rustling]

I thought they
canceled the tour.

Hmm?

They did.

What's that?

Curtis.

That's a full page ad.

It costs a lot of money.

I don't know.

Well, is there something
in your contract

- obligating you to do the...
- No, no. It's fine.

Don't worry about it.

I'll take care of it, okay?

Don't worry.

Where are you going with
my crossword puzzle?

[water running]

Oh! Watch out. [chuckles]

Hey.

Yeah, hi.

[lighter hitting the table]

[Woman on TV] I want it.

I want it. I
want it really bad.

Really, really bad.

Oh, Curtis.

Honestly.

You got to smoke?

Use an ash tray, please.

[sighs] One vice at a time, Mom.

One vice at a time.

[Curtis exhaling]

...not if you screw up
this Goddamn audition.

[intense screeching music
with indistinct voices]

[upbeat music playing
in the background]

[indistinct chatter
in the restaurant]

[inaudible dialogue]

[inaudible dialogue]

I'm sorry you had to see that.

Don't apologize to me.

Apologize to your guitar.

And you may have
hurt an old friend.

Benny's not my friend. Okay?

He's my manager.

He's always just
been my manager.

Since when? What?

And Ronin? You're
screaming at...

Baby, what happened in there?

I don't think I can...

I can't go back in
that world right now.

I can't.

It's not for me.

It's okay, sweetheart.

[patting back]

[Curtis] I'm sorry.

[droning music playing]

Curtis?

Sweetie?

Oh!

Curtis!

No, no, no.

Oh!

Oh my God.

Fuck.

You scared the shit out of me.

[giggling]

You scared the
shit out of me.

Oh my God.

Where's Olivia?

Olivia's working late tonight,

so I was just...

I was just working
on some stuff.

Mom, you've got to start...

you've got to start trusting
me at some point, okay?

You hungry?

I got Chinese.

Fuck.

Give your mother
a heart attack.

[Lady Macbeth] I had laid
the daggers ready.

He could not
have missed them.

[violin music playing]

I'm afraid they have awakened,

and 'tis not done.

The attempt, and not the
deed, must confound us.

[grunting]

Had he not resembled
my father as he slept,

I'd have done it.

I have done the deed.

This is a sorry sight.

And a foolish thought,
to say a sorry sight.

These deeds must not be
thought of after these ways.

So, it will make us mad.

Romantic attachments can
make things complicated.

She's giving him
a reason to live

and I could not have done
any of it without Olivia.

It was very nice.

And I hope that
they get very close.

Well...

But you know what they do say
about girlfriends and moms?

Like oil and water.

It's the truth. I'm
just saying, it...

Hey, could you
pass that powder?

You know, I actually feel
kind of like her mom now too.

You know?

She doesn't have any one.
Her parents both died.

She's a nurse?

What about it, Mona?

It's perfect.

Yeah. But she does have
access to pharmaceuticals.

Oh, good point.

[clearing throat]

[audience applauding]

[ominous music playing]

[Eaton] Were you
the first responder?

[First Responder] Yes, sir.

Sponsor stopped by
and found two bodies.

Curtis Cooper and...

[First Responder]
Olivia Jones.

No bruises.

Where's our rock star?

[First Responder]
Right over here.

You know his music?

What did he play?

He was a singer.

He had a big hit like
three summers ago.

You know?

Oh yeah.

I kind of recognize him.

Right?

No bruises here either.

[somber music playing]

I'm sorry.

You're saying you think
his death was accidental?

I'm sorry to say, but yes.

That's how it looks.

Now, did you have any indication
that he was using again?

Any signs?

No.

No, quite the contrary.

No, no, no changes in his
behavior and his mood?

Detective. I don't
know if you're aware,

but my son recently returned
from a very serious rehab.

Yes. Ma'am I am aware
about a month ago.

Yes?

It just...

I got my boy back, huh?

Last night.

Last night of all
nights. It just. He...

Why is that?

Because he was
about the propose?

Well, yes. But,
but more than that,

oh, he and Olivia were
starting a life together.

And she's pregnant.

Is it possible that they may
have wanted to celebrate?

No, no. Not like that.

Olivia is a nurse. She...

Was.

I know this can be very
difficult to hear Mrs. Cooper,

but we found traces of a
very powerful amphetamine

in both their systems.

How can you explain that?

You want me to figure that out?

I'm very sorry for your loss.

I'll be in touch.

[water running]

[eerie music playing
with incoherent voices]

[Lillian VO] I fear thy nature.

It is too full of the
milk of human kindness.

Be not lost so poorly
in your thoughts.

[mysterious music playing]

Hey guys, can I, uh...

talk to you three for a minute?

Of course, Lillian.

We all owe Curtis and
massive gratitude, Lillian.

Not only for his music,
but for his friendship.

I know y'all got high together.

No, I'm not blaming anyone.

I just, if Curtis was
going to use again,

who would he call?

Billy, you must know.

Isn't that one of
the jobs of the manager?

Lillian, I can understand
why you might think that,

but no.

I've been handling the fallout
from the canceled tour.

I have lawsuits
coming in every day.

I haven't spoken to him.

I haven't seen him.

No, before that.

I've been setting up this tour
for the past year, Lillian.

Coordinating with the
record label, promoters,

merchandise vendors,

people that handle
social media, branding.

I don't have time, Lillian.

Ronin.

You are going to write the
name and number of his dealer

on this, for me.

Please.

Curtis was a private guy.

Ronin, on the day of my
son's funeral. Please.

Dealer's name is Taz.

Thank you, Ronin.

Thank you.

[News Anchor] So,
what happened here?

What killed Curtis
Cooper and his fiancé

is paramythoxyamphetamine.
PMA.

A designer drug dealers sell,

passing it off as a
substitute for another drug,

more popular ecstasy.

PMA is cheaper and
has similar effects,

but it's more toxic so it
can kill in much lower doses.

[phone dinging]

Taz?

You're a girl.

So are you.

No, I...

Get in.

What are you in to?

PMA.

Something tells me that's
not really your flavor.

Are you a cop?

No. Just a concerned citizen.

Actually, I'm Curtis
Cooper's mother.

- Shit.
- Mmm.

I'm really sorry for your loss.

Um,

this is a very
sensitive subject.

So I'm going to need you
to get out of my car,

At any time,
before my son died,

did you speak with him?

I said get the
fuck out of my car.

It's a simple yes or no.

Yes. Or no?

I heard Curtis dried out.

I hadn't talked
to him in months.

Look, I've got rules, okay?

I never saw anyone
fresh out of clean up.

Too much fallout.

Too many OD's.

And I never move PMA.

Like I said, I'm really
sorry for your loss.

But if I have to say get
to fuck out of my car

one more time...

Thank you,

Miss Taz.

Babe.

Babe!

[groaning]

Ah!

[gasping]

[ice clanking]

[sobbing]

[Eaton] Lady Macbeth.

[chuckles]

Cleopatra.

Esther Prenn from
the Scarlet Letter.

That A gives her away.

Medea....

The Deathly Light. I
don't know that one.

What's that?

Yeah. It's a play
loosely based on

an Edgar Allan Poe short story.

Poe always gave me the creeps.

Is there a role you haven't
played you'd like to?

Portia.

Portia.

She swallows fire.

Ooh.

She eats hot coals and
burns from the inside.

And how would you
show that on stage?

Oh, well usually it's not shown,

but I'm actually
talking about, you know,

telling the historical
truth of Portia,

a woman who would
do such a thing.

[Eaton] Wow.

I don't know if I
can find a writer.

Mm. Very good.

You know you committed a felony

when you got into the
drug dealer's car?

It's illegal to be in a motor
vehicle containing contraband.

I'm just trying to get
to the bottom of this.

And I was able to get
in touch with a person

that sold my son
drugs in the past.

I wouldn't take
a criminal's word,

for anything.

I think I can tell when
somebody is telling me

the truth or not, Detective.

That is my job.

And what do you think
my job is Mrs. Cooper?

Don't play detective.
We have the lab results.

We know what happened.

And you really think it's
just as simple as all that?

You're not alone in
what you're feeling.

A lot of parents have
gone through this.

I see it all the time.

So, just business
as usual for you?

No, no. Look.

Curtis may have gotten a
hold of some bad stuff.

He may have had a bad reaction.

I wish to hell that wasn't
the case, but it is.

Don't you think that
there's just a...

tiniest possibility

that somebody set them up to
make it look like an overdose?

No. No.

There's just no
evidence of that.

The case is closed
Mrs. Cooper.

Now, our guy's out of there.

You can do with the
apartment whatever you want.

Now promise me you won't go
talking to any more drug dealers

or anything like that.

Lil, are you okay to do this?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll be fine.

You know, I can stay.

That's okay. I'm really, I...

I'll stay a little bit.

You don't need to. I thank
you so much for your help.

You don't need to thank me.

I'm going to make us coffee.
Is there coffee here?

I don't know if there is any.

I am going to go out and
I'm going to get us coffee.

How's that? Okay? Yeah.

You need a little pick me up.

That's what I'm going to do.

I'll be right back.

[somber music playing]

[inaudible playing and singing]

[whispering voices
talking over the music]

[somber music continues playing]

[Lilly sniffling and crying]

[baby cooing]

[baby crying]

[static feedback buzzing
and vegetables crunching]

I got a little
something for you.

For me?

Why?

Well, it's not
exactly for you, but

I hope it's okay.

Oh my God.

Lillian.

I just couldn't resist.

It's so adorable.

[knocking on the door]

- Are you expecting someone?
- [Olivia] MmMmm.

[Lillian] You get it.

Lilly.

Are you all right?

No.

No, I'm not.

[crickets chirping]

Ms. Cooper, thanks again
so much for coming by.

I'm sorry I couldn't
make it to the service.

I was traveling. I hope
you got the flowers.

This is your idea of how
to exploit my son's death?

Exploiting is not
what we're about.

We want to do right by Curtis.

The tribute album

and the memorial
concert, it's a...

to honor your boy's memory.

We want to make sure we
pick the best images.

This label's like,
like a family.

You know, every
artist matters to us.

The truth is you
could put me back

in my old studio apartment
with nothing, but you know,

a view of a brick wall.

As long as I had my records.

That's what it's about.

[indistinct voices talking]

That's why this record
is so important.

And that's why I insisted
on having your input

as his mother.

I imagine actually you
need my input as his mother

for the approval of
his likeness, right?

Well, I mean, we
don't need it per se.

It's, we could go in
another direction,

but a photo of your boy
would be a nice thing.

And you know, Curtis
is going to be

a bigger star now than
ever before.

What makes you think
I care about that?

Because his talent...

I mean, he had the kind
of talent that deserves

to be remembered forever.

Not bad.

This is, this is my boy.

I like that one.

What's the matter?

Do you know this photographer?

That is from the Dangerous
Star photo shoot.

So I'm not sure.

I like, I like that one.

Do you want... is that the
one you want to go with?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah. This one.

I love it.

[gentle music playing]

- Great.
- [camera shutter clicking]

Perfect.

Uh, too much.

Little, three quarters.

Oh yeah. That's nice.

This is good.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm sorry guys. I have a guest.

I'll, uh, just give me a minute.

So, uh, what brings you over?

Well, I understand you
shot photos of my son

for his album,

and I wonder why you
didn't tell me that.

What was I going to say?

You could have told
me you knew him

in a different
context than the...

Well, he didn't use my photo.

Why did you really come here?

To apologize for the whole

knife in my car thing?

No, actually I came to
see if you could help me.

Look, I know you're
not responsible

for the death of my son,

but you did supply him
along the way, right?

So what, what do you need?

Information.

I don't dispense
info for anyone.

That's kind of a major tenant
for staying in business.

I understand. I do.

They're using your photo now.

Geez.

Wow.

I just never imagined
my photo would end up

on an album cover like this.

That's a beautiful
picture of him.

A side rarely seen, I mean,

and you captured it.

Maybe you brought
it out in him.

Taz, don't tell me
you don't give a shit.

What would you like me to say?

I liked him a lot.

We had fun. Okay.

I'm sorry. I feel
really fucking shitty

about everything
that happened.

I have other photos
from this shoot

of Curtis and the band.

If you want to see them.

Oh my God. I've known that boy

since he was a
little tiny thing.

Billy. Billy knew my
husband back when.

[Lillian laughing]

Oh my God, that guitar.

He loved that pattern
in grade school.

He got a pair of sneakers with
spots on them like a cheetah.

He thought it would
make him run faster.

Do you, um.

Oh, no thank you.

When did you say
these were taken?

Two years ago.

Could you print up a copy of
this one for me too, please?

Of course.

So you're going to help me?

I stayed so far away
from all of that shit,

and I have very
high-end clientele,

and I don't need them
croaking on me for some

bad PMA.

You don't grow your
own pot or mushrooms?

You don't have a cocoa
plant in the closet, right?

Of course not,
you have suppliers,

and surely someone knows how
PMA moves through the city.

Sniffing around can get
me really up fucked up.

Just ask me any other favor.

No, I'm not asking.

You are going to find
out who gave my son PMA.

I hate playing concerts,
to tell you the truth.

You're in a rock band.

I prefer recording.

I like the studio life.

I talked to that Taz.

I was surprised
to learn that she

is actually a
decent photographer.

And you knew
Olivia pretty well.

I don't know why they
wouldn't have told you.

Maybe they felt guilty.

They were seeing each
other for a full year

while we were together.

Must've upset you?

Yeah.

You know, I was no angel either.

Especially on tour.

Where the problems began.

I got to get back.

Ronin. Did Olivia ever use?

I really don't know.

I'm about to play a
song I wrote for Curtis.

I'm still working on it,

but I want it to be
ready for the memorial.

Want to hear it?

No. I don't.

[serene music playing]

[phone ringing]

Yeah. Just don't
make me regret it.

Oh, I really
appreciate it. Really.

Those are the three guys who
move PMA through the city.

So what are you going to do?

I don't know.

[suspenseful music playing]

Add just a splash of water
once every week to 10 days.

Now these can get to root
rot as quick as look at you,

if you sit in soggy soil,
even for short periods.

Can I help you?

Just looking.

Do you have a pit?

This can be toxic to animals
if they eat the leaves.

So make sure they don't...

Put it up off the floor,

keep it up on the
table, for example.

So the dogs and cats
don't get to it.

I want you to know this
label is like family.

You know, every artist matters.

Curtis is going to be a bigger
star now than ever before.

[Sorceress] Look like
the innocent flower,

but be the serpent underneath.

...and no water. Just in
about four or five days,

just a little splash around
the outside of the pot.

Fuck.

[intense music playing]

[Gardener] For fuck's sake.

You better fucking answer
my calls, little man.

The yellow brick road
doesn't lead to Oz, mate.

It leads to me.

I'm the bloody wizard and we
have a major fucking emergency.

Lillian Cooper calling
Detective Eaton, please.

No, please, please
don't put me on hold.

Well, this is the third time

I've left a message for
Detective Eaton, so.

Yes, Lillian Cooper.

I'm sure the detective
will know what it's about.

Thank you.

[indistinct voices talking]

[Ghost] Revenge his
foul, unnatural murder.

Leave...

not one...

eye.

♪ Like a captain, we're found ♪

They say Elvis is worth
more dead than alive.

So sick fucks are making
a shit ton of money

off Curtis's death.

Yeah. Cops just don't
want to hear it.

Now look at that
son of a bitch.

Oh, God Look.

That guy is really
fucking scary.

They call him "The
Gardener" because...

he slit a guy's throat
with gardening tools.

[Ghost VO] If you're
really going to do this...

[indistinct ghostly whispers]

Death is the only water
to wash away this dirt.

Where did you get your gun?

What?

Your gun. Where did you get it?

I got it for protection.

Look having a gun isn't
always such a clever idea.

You go waltzing around
these sketch balls

and bad things are
bound to happen.

Bad things have
already happened.

What do you want me to do?

Go dig around on
Craigslist? I will.

These three assholes
have to pay.

But it's still not
going to bring him back.

But justice will be served.

[heavy ominous music playing]

[drum beating rhythmically]

Don't spoil your appetite.

Hey, just don't go without this.

Active ingredients.

[heavy ominous music playing]

You were just amazing.

And when you kicked
that cop in the nuts.

"There's your blow job." I love
that. What movie was that?

- Uh, Cookie.
- Your Medea was superb.

- My what?
- Madea.

I've never seen it
done quite like that.

So "capital B Bitchy"
with a twist of Hepburn.

Audrey of course.

Oh yeah. And what
is the capacity?

Uh, 95.

Have you also directed before?

Oh, well summers Coop and I

up in Vermont,

children's theater.

I think I know what I'm doing.

- Of course you do.
- [both laughing]

Trap door.

Oh! Addie.

I missed you so much.

I think there's
a do very nicely.

I greatly appreciate the help.

So, this is
the emergency exit.

In case the shit hits the fan.

Goes right to the alley.

Depending on the
size of the cast,

we can usually provide
one or two senior members

of the company with
their own private space.

I gave up my space
once for Tony Danza.

I'm assuming you want your own.

A Tony spot would be great.

Ah. Okay.

It's our finest and
largest dressing room.

I call it the
presidential suite.

That vanity was a gift for
my mom on Julius Caesar.

Oh, pardon me, thou
bleeding piece of earth

that I am meek and gentle
with these butchers.

That cot is special.

It's where I get
all my beauty sleep.

Not that you need any.

I, well, it...

It will be my last play.

Don't say that.

Every exit is an
entrance someplace else.

What do you mean?

Could you, um, give
me a moment here?

Yes. If you need
anything, please.

[Lillian screaming and crying]

If thou didst ever
thy dear Mother, love.

Revenge his foul,
unnatural murder.

Fare thee well ones,

the glowworm shows
the matin to be near,

and 'gins to pale her
uneffectual fire.

Adieu, sweet Hamlet.

Adieu. Remember me!

[intense music playing]

[intense music
continues playing]

Oh.

Shit.

What the fuck are
you suppose to be?

Oh fuck.

The fuck is this?

What do you want?

I know what you did.

What did I do, love?
What have I done?

I want to know how you did it.

Get your fucking PMA in my son.

Fucking priceless.

Mommy, dearest huh?

But you're not going
to use that gun.

You're not going
to use the gun.

You don't know how to.

Now give it to me.

How'd you do it?

You are not going to
use that fucking...

- [gun fires]
- [Gardner yelling]

[Lillian crying]

[water running]

[water stops running]

[Lillian sobs]

- [metal clattering]
- [fabric ripping]

[Girl On Stairs] Why don't
we try to schedule something

once we get closer?

[Lilian groans]

Back on in two Mrs. Cooper.

Ah!

[tape tearing]

[heavy breathing]

[Woman on speaker] That one may
smile, and smile vehemently.

[knocking on the door]

Are you okay?

Oh yeah.

How do I look?

Like a ghost.

An award-winning ghost.

The villain, the slave,
is not twentieth part,

the tithe of your
precedent, Lord.

No.

A king of shreds and patches.

Save me and hover o'er
me with your wings.

Oh, heavenly guards.

What would your
gracious figure?

Alas. She smat.

Do not forget.

This visitation is but to whet

thy almost blunted purpose.

Oh, look amazement
on thy father sits,

step between him and
his fighting soul.

Speak to him, Hamlet.

[knocking] How you doing?

Ah, great.

What happened to your leg?

Ah, nothing. I... sorry
about the shoe.

I've always been a fan.

You don't have to say that.

I've always been a fan.

If it happens again.

What? The audience
got a kick out of it.

Lillian Cooper is
a serious actress.

A real tragedienne.

Just because you're
the director doesn't

mean you can change a
costume at your own whim.

Hamlet is a tragedy,
not a fucking farce.

[stammering] I'm, It
won't happen...

[Lillian crying]

[muffled screaming]

[indistinct voices talking]

If you're really
going to do this,

do it courageously.

Do it gloriously.

Do it right.

[energy buzzing, glass breaking]

Speak. I am bound to listen.

As you are to revenge.

I am thy mother's spirit.

Doomed for a certain term

to walk the night

and for the day confined
to fast in fires

'til the foul crimes done
in my days of nature,

are burnt and purged away.

Were I not forbid to tell

the secrets of my prison house,

I could a tale unfold
whose lightest word

would harrow thy soul.

If thou didst ever
thy dear mother love...

Oh God.

Revenge this foul,

unnatural murder.

Murder?

Murder.

[soft rock music playing]

You have that much talent.

And I don't know how you could
just walk away from it all.

I'll never understand it.

Plaque went up pretty fast.

Yeah. You getting a lot of
work off this masterpiece?

That's a great picture, but
don't quit your day job.

Night job.

You have the best candy.

I don't like being
left out in the cold.

I'll keep that in mind.

Every color in the rainbow.

The usual.

Always a pleasure
doing business.

Likewise.

Goodbye Claude.

Hey!

[intense music playing]

[snorting and coughing]

In the chest, you say?

Yes, in the chest.

What the fu...?

Much lower actually,

below the stomach.

Um, you've got the wrong guy.

[Lillian chuckles]

And now sir,

I am going to shoot you.

Do you think they'll make
a tribute album for you?

[gun firing]

Oh, there you are.

I just knocked.

One of the stage
left lights is out.

It's fucking annoying.

So as you enter just
stand more stage right.

Okay?

Oh, yeah good.

Got it.

[Addison exhaling
loudly like a ghost]

See you later.

[intense music playing]

Oh, sweet Hamlet.

A murderer and a villain.

The slave is not twentieth part

the tithe of the
precedent, my Lord.

No more!

[knocking on door]

Mrs. Cooper?

[knocking on door]

Mrs. Cooper?

A king of shreds and patches.

[fire alarm beeping]

- I'm not saying anything.
- I know, I...

- Hey, hey.
- Goodnight.

- Hey, um, Lillian.
- What?

I just want to say,
I'm so impressed.

You know that you're
getting back out there

and doing this play after...

Thank you.

What you've been through,

and it's inspiring.

All right. What
do you want? What?

Do you want me
to say I'm sorry?

Why would you
say you're sorry?

You only sent the audience
out of the theater,

all expecting a refund.

I'm out $20,000.

I've got everything in this.

Why would the great
Lillian Cooper apologize

for any of that?

I don't know what
you've been up to.

What crazy rituals we've got
going on here, but you're out.

Out? Hey, you know.

I, I directed this
play. You can't just.

It's my theater,
my production.

No, it was my idea.

No, it was Shakespeare's idea.

Newsflash women have
been playing Hamlet

since the 1800's. Okay?

The first Hamlet recorded
on film was a woman.

The first radio
Hamlet was a woman.

Your idea? No. No.

[yelling] You can't do that!
You can't!

- Hey!
- You can't let this happen!

Hey!

- Hey, hey!
- [indistinct yelling]

Okay. I'm sorry. I'm
sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Ah!

[soft rock music playing]

[camera shutter clicking]

I don't know. Walls
are pretty bland,

And you're kind of tense.

Maybe you should
loosen up a little.

Well, you got anything
that can help with that?

Well, the record label paid
me to take a photo of you,

not get you high. So.

Can't it be both?

No.

I'm going to use that plant
to liven up this photo.

Hey, how are you doing Taz?

How's it going?

Ronin, can I get
a word with you?

Hey Billy.

All right. Call me
when the shoot's over.

Oh. That looks great, right?

Curtis' mom was a
big fan of your work.

Has she got in touch with you?

Yeah. She's pretty intense.

Yeah, she's an intense woman.

What did she want?

Um, she just wanted some
old photos of Curtis.

Messy situation, isn't it?

I guess so.

[camera shutter clicking]

[brooding music playing]

He hired me to take
some photos of Ronin.

So I went over to his
new place yesterday.

And I don't know. It just,

it creeped me out.

He even has Curtis's
brand of cigarettes.

Who, I know. Like what?
Why? He doesn't even smoke.

He used to give Curtis
such shit about it.

And then Billy came
over, and they go outside

and they're all hush hush.

And I, it just...

It just felt like...

Ronin is in on the whole
fucking thing.

It all felt so fucking weird.

[knocking on door]

Hey, man.

Look man, I hated
the way things ended.

I mean, we can't
part ways like that.

That shit that Billy said,

it was totally uncalled for.

And I said some stuff
too that I really wish

I could take back.

You know. Do what you gotta do.

Start a new life. Start fresh.

I really don't want there to
be any bad blood between us.

Hey Mrs. Cooper.

Hey! How you doing Ronin?

So we're going to
sit down for dinner.

You're welcome to join us.

Yeah. Place looks nice, man.

Some things you
can't quit. Huh?

They may not get you high,

but they'll kill
you just as quick.

[intense music playing]

[indistinct voices talking]

How was the run?

Oh.

Run of your show.

Oh. We, we closed.

Had a great time though. Yeah.

Hamlet. Can't go wrong.

There was, um, some
new developments.

Maybe think might be
related to your son's death.

I'd like to talk
to you about it.

Mind if I come up?

We can talk about it
here. I'm listening.

The man who ran your
son's record label

was murdered a few days ago.

Claude Felson.

I heard about
that. It's a shame.

You were at the theater
Tuesday, between 9:30 and 10.

Well yes, I was.

What about last week?

Same gig.

You know this man?

We think there's a connection

between his death and Claude's.

Well, does it have
something to do with my son?

Both were killed with the
same make and model firearm.

Ballistics is checking to see
if it's the exact same gun.

And this guy is one of the
biggest importers of PMA

in the city.

That's the drug that killed
your son Mrs. Cooper.

Yes. I know what that is.

It's starting to sound like
you might think my son's death

was not so accidental.

I'm just asking questions.

Now you're asking questions.

You have a good
night, Mrs. Cooper.

You as well, Detective.

Stay safe.

Thank you.

[indistinct chatter]

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Any update?

[Lillian on phone] Update?

They followed me.

And I'm scared.

Who?

Police.

I think we just have to be
more discreet this time.

Can we meet in a
couple of hours?

I've got to pick
up some things.

[doorbell ringing]

Hi Lillian.

Hi Ronin.

When I heard you
got a new place,

I had no idea how grand.

Recording set up.

Just like you always dreamed of.

Well, business is good.

Sorry. I'm feeling a
little off, you know,

just losing two close
friends in a few weeks.

And...

what happened to Claude is just.

Oh, you told me you had a
song for Curtis or something?

Could I hear it?

It's not finished, but you sure?

Yeah. I'd love to hear it.

I just want it to be perfect.

I bet you do.

He always liked things perfect.

Even as a little boy.

He was like a brother to me.

He was my son.

Why don't I play
that song for you?

Yeah. You do that.

Supposing the pistol
was not stolen,

and the owner was discovered.

You know, it may
not be a single, but

I think it's my
favorite track so far.

Oh. For your solo album.

- [slow sweet music playing]
- [Ronin harmonizing]

[door closing]

[Ronin sighing]

[piano notes chiming]

[mysterious music playing]

[freezer door shuts]

[chaotic music playing]

I have thought of death.

Dreamt of it.

Would have even prayed.

If it were fit that such as
I should pray for anything.

But if death be in this cup,

I bid thee think again,

before thou beholds
me drink it. Please?

Even now, it is upon my lip.

Oh, shit. Lillian.

How old was Curtis when
he made these recordings?

I don't know. Uh,
15, 16 years old.

I found them. I just, I don't
know what to do with them.

These are priceless.

Really?

Yes. These are demos
of some of his hits,

acoustic versions.

There's a lot of material here
that I'm not familiar with.

Now, if it's okay with you,
I'm going to take them.

I'll have them
digitize, cataloged,

and then I'll be in touch
with you about a release.

You know, what's best.

Toast?

None for me. Thanks.

You know, that
stuff will kill you.

Oh.

All right, you twist my arm.

To Curtis.

To Curtis. All right.

That's some
seriously cold vodka.

You ever seen this before Billy?

Yeah. That's beautiful.

He was going to
give it to Olivia.

The night they died.

That's sad.

You don't know the
half of it, Billy.

She was pregnant.

Coop's grand baby.

I've got to go.

[intense music playing]

[Eaton VO] Is there a role you
haven't played you'd liked to?

[Lillian VO] Portia.

[Eaton] Portia?

[Lillian] She swallows fire.

[Eaton] Oh.

[Lillian] She eats hot coals
and burns from the inside.

[Eaton] Wow.

[tapes scattering on the ground]

[chaotic music playing]

Night.

[Lillian] Why do
we make our music?

Oh, dark strings reply.

Because we live
in a strange land

and we remember a lost sky.

We ask no leaf of the laurel.

We know what fame is worth.

But our songs break
out of our winter

as the flowers, break
out on the earth.

Just bear with me,
it's some new ones, so.

Okay.

[loud metal clanking]

I had a vision.

I just fell asleep and...

the road...

opened up to the sky

like a fog.

And on it, there were...

dark things.

One grew into a
body without a head

with a gun by its side.

The other was a man
sitting, huddled,

nursing a wounded leg.

And then it all went black.

And there was this woman thing

creeping toward the
one without a head.

And she reached
down and touched it.

Sprang back and cried,

"He's dead."

[audience clapping]

[Eaton] Good to see you
back on stage again.

[Lillian] Detective Eaton,
what a surprise.

You were simply amazing.

So, you get a lot of
time to kill backstage?

Even when an actor's
waiting backstage,

they're still working.

Oh yeah. Yeah.

I never thought of it like that.

Oh, um, I finally read
that Edgar Allen Poe story

that your play is based on.

Killing with a candle that
emits poisonous vapor.

A Deathly Light.

That's one tricky
son of a bitch.

I thought you said something
about coming to apologize?

Yeah, I did.

You were right about
Curtis and Olivia.

their death not
being an accident.

I wanted to acknowledge
that and say I'm sorry.

Lillian.

Just let me help you.

[intense music playing]

[inaudible dialogue]

[Taz VO] He even has Curtis'
brand of cigarettes.

I know. Like what? Why?
He doesn't even smoke.

He used to give Chris
such shit about it.

[Eaton] You were right.

About Curtis and Olivia.

their death not
being an accident.

I wanted to acknowledge
that and say, I'm sorry.

Thank you.

I also wanted to say that
I underestimated you.

I won't do that again.

[Lillian whispering] Justice
will be served.

[energetic dramatic music]

Justice will be served.

Justice will be served.

Justice will be served.
