Give me a beat. Louder.

Louder.

I threw her on the floor and
we crushed a little more.

I texted all my peeps then
I threw her out the door.

I Eat it and I tweet it.

I eat it and I tweet it.

I eat and tweet
it. That's right.

I eat it and I tweet it.

What.

Yo.

Hey, yo.



What the hell is this?

What the hell is this?

I... OK.

Yo, yo, yo. I ain't playin'.

[SCREAMS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

Heidi, no. Stop.

- Tickle time.
- Heidi don't.

- Heidi no.
- Tickle time.



Tickle time.

- Ah!
- OK.

OK.

It's 9 o'clock, tickle
time is officially over...

For now.

Oh Rudy, you are so lucky you're

not part of the tickle time.

Yeah, thank God.

- [CAR HORN]
- OK.

I gotta go.

Where are you going?

Oh it's just I have to... my
mom is making me do this thing.

What do you mean? But
Rudy's taking us to a case.

I know.

I'll... I'll me you at
the recording studio.

I just have to do this TV pilot.

It's just... it's
not... it's nothing.

It's just this stupid thing.

Come on, Baby.

We gotta go get famous.

- Hi, Joy.
- Hi, mom.

Hello.

Um, so what's this pilot
thing that you guys are doing?

Oh it's um... how
would I describe it?

It's a reality show
for Heidi and I.

We're going to be ghost
hunting, talking to ghosts,

communicating with dead
people and whatnot.

Sounds a lot like "Ghost Girls".

I think it's, it's different
because she's my mom

and you're not my mom.

- So...
- No.

Are you going to
wear your hair down?

Yeah. No.

I don't know.

OK.

Well, um, then just you'll
meet me there, I guess?

I'll be back in time.

We have to go. Bye.

OK. Bye.

Bye, Rudy.

When's the next tickle time?

It's tomorrow at 8:59.

Oh, hey.

You must be the Ghost Girls.

Oh, yeah.

I mean, I'm the Ghost Girl.

He's not a girl.

Although, I know, you'd
think he was a girl.

Look at those
feminine features...

Really feminine.

Like where's his Adam's apple?

It's not there.

And I know this
looks like a beard,

but it's like super hard
for him to grow one.

I'm her ride.

I'm Molly.

- Rudy.
- All right.

Put it back together.

Woah.

Monsters.

[WEIRD NOISES]

It's really nice to meet you.

- Good to meet you too.
- Come on in.

Hi. Sorry.

Where have you been?

I've been doing these chords
all by myself for an hour.

Yeah, that meeting
went really long,

but I guess they want to move
forward with the pilot...

Which is crazy.

Cool.

- Let's just get to work.
- OK.

What can I do?

[SONG RECORDING] but I
eat it and I tweet it.

What.

Hey, what the hell is this?

[SCREAM]

I like this song.

Can you isolate
that second track?

Oh, yeah. I might be able to.

OK, if I reduce the
ohms and then increase

the frequency to level out the
overtones of the quarter notes.

Wait, wait, wait a second.

Do you hear that?

[RECORDING]: Hey
Monty, listen to this.

Monty.

[RECORDING]: Sweets.

Sweets.

BOTH: Sweet River and
the Huckleberry Dogs.

Oh my God.

Well, who's... who's that? Like?

It's my favorite band.

- I have all their LPs.
- Oh yeah?

How about 1971
"Live at Fay Hall"?

Uh, yeah.

Two copies, signed.

Oh, oh, oh, OK oh.

Hold on, hold on.

Woah.

This is amazing.

I mean I can't believe you
guys aren't excited about this.

Oh, I don't know. [GASP]

The 1965 West Birmingham
High School Talent Show.

This was back when the dogs
were still called The Two Tones.

What's your favorite song?

Gotta be "Georgia Peach".

Oh, that's mine too.
That's mine too.

Me too. I mean, yeah.

Trying to get back to my baby.

Trying to get off
this Vietnam beach.

That's going great.

Can't wait to see her smilin'.

You guys bring out the
best in each other.

Can't wait to hold
my George Peach.

All right. Stop guys.

- Seriously.
- No, no.

Don't stop. Don't stop.

I'm starting to feel
something. Keep singing.

- Keep singing.
- Heidi!

Let them keep singing.

Can't wait to hold
my Georgia Peach.

Yeah. Keep going.

One more time.

Can't wait to hold
my Georgia Peach.

They're here.

A one, two, three.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Sweet River is here?

- Like, right now?
- Yeah.

All right. Stop.

Stop. You drowning
out my stuff, man.

No, man.

You know, I'm just trying
to make it interesting.

Well, if by interesting you
mean shitty, job well done.

Why don't you write
some lyrics OK?

It's been two years.

Well I don't feel inspired.

Ain't much of that around here.

Then make it feel inspiration.

Don't come and...

What did you say?

I don't want to say it again.

- It didn't make that much sense.
- OK.

So these Sweet River
guys, they're like more

famous than JTT or what?

I can't believe you've
never heard of Sweet River.

Yeah! You know what?

You're... you're unbelievable.

You just thank me and
kiss my [BEEP] ass

- for writing on my sweet rifts.
- You know what?

You guys have to see this.

NARRATOR: In 1975 with their
hit, Georgia Peach, Sweet River

Jackson and the
Huckleberry Dogs we're

finally on top of the world.

When Sweet River came out, there

was nothing quite like it.

And all the other bands
after were derivative

and I haven't liked them at all.

NARRATOR: But while the band's
popularity was just reaching

its peak, internal
tensions between front man,

Sweet River, and charismatic
bassist, Montgomery,

we're reaching their
breaking point.

Is that my bubbly brew?

No Sweets, relax.

This is my bubbly brew.

I was drinking a bubbly brew
and I put it down over there

and now you're drinkin' it.

What are you going to do?

SWEET RIVER: I will
douche you when you sleep.

OK.

You douche me, you
see what happens next.

I guarantee you it
will get physical.

NARRATOR: Even though the
band had been together

since high school, they
were unable to finish

their final track.

On May 11, 1975, Sweet River
boarded the fateful plane

that would take
them down in country

fried rock 'n' roll history.

When it happened, I mean,
it was like a dream.

You couldn't believe it.

I mean, Sweet River
crashed into a river.

Their tour plane crashed
en route to Florida

and the entire band was killed.

They were gospel, they
were blues, they were jazz,

they were the
American experience.

They were George
Washington beating

up Lincoln together, for music.

And that's what made them.

They are America.

If you don't like Sweet
River, you don't like America.

And that's fine
because in America

you don't have to like America.

That's what Sweet
River died for.

They had one more
song to record.

And they never recorded it.

I mean, think of what...
Think of what we all lost.

NARRATOR: Coming up next, "Fifth
Non-Blonde, the Untold Story."

And there you go.

Sweet River and the
Huckleberry Dogs.

OK. Think.

What did they need to
do they couldn't do?

Well the plane crashed
before they got to Florida,

so maybe they're unfinished
business is going to Florida.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- No, no, guys, guys.

They never finished their
most important song.

OK.

So all we have to do is get in
with the band and inspire them.

But how?

Well, how women
always inspire men.

We have to be their muses.

Their what?

Their muses.

What are you saying?

What's that last part?

Their muses.

Their muses.

That makes sense because that
song was so important to them.

Hey, hey, stop.

You're hurting her.

What are you doing that for?

Geez.

Oh my gosh.

You are nothing but a sorry
whisky-sipping snail of a man.

All right that's it.

Gator you hold me back.

I'm about to punch
this boy in the nuts.

Oh boys.

Boys.

We are muses and we want music.

Come on Daddy-Os.

We even brought treats.

Girls I hear you were ringing.

Florence, girl, you get over
here and give papa his supper.

Uh, uh, uh Daddy,
not til you give

me something I can grind to.

Yeah, Monty.

You play so nice.

You heard what these
yum-yum snatches said.

Come on, boys.

Let's get this track
finished once and for all.

It's working.

I know.

[PHONE BUZZING] Ugh.

It's four.

So?

I gotta go.

What do you mean you gotta go?

What... Hey guys, can you
just give us one minute,

but carry on with what your...

What?

Where the ladies going?

Maybe they went looking
for some lyrics,

there's none to be found here.

Oh, maybe they went
out to the talent store

to pick up a six pack.

Oh, I don't need
a pick me up here.

These rifts are
made for walkin'.

Maybe I'll fine me
a lyricist of own.

That's it!

Hey guys, can't we
just make a song?

I told you I had to leave.

I don't know why it's
such a big shocker.

Because we're in the
middle of something.

Angelica, I can't be late.

So you're just going to leave
me here to do it all by myself?

Why don't you just
ask Rudy to help you?

Rudy is elbows deep in
that bitch Margaret.

You mean Molly, who's
sitting right there?

Oh, what? Are you
guys best friends now?

Why don't you go braid each
other's hair and watch Celina?

You are being so dramatic,
which makes me very upset

because normally I'm
the one who's dramatic.

- I don't like this, I gotta go.
- Wait.

Heidi if you leave,
then this is over.

I honestly can't believe
what I'm hearing right now.

Get. Get.

I'm going out.

Get.

And never come back.

Um.

Ugh.

Uh, guys, um, just
don't come in.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
