Hollywood Love Story (2018): Season 1, Episode 2 - Sergio & The Spirit Sisters - full transcript

@godsergfarias is a socialite who wants to be seen at only the best events, surrounded by A-listers. But branding oneself can have unforeseen consequences.

♪♪

Narrator: Social media has
changed our way of life.

It's become a full-time job.

We didn't even realize we
slipped into this rabbit hole

until it was too late.

Now we're all in it, and we're
all trying to understand

this new normal.

For some, it's taken
over their entire identity.

What have we done to ourselves?

Is there a way out,
a happy ending?

♪♪



My name is Sergio Farias.

Becoming part of the L. A. scene

is something that I
always did want -

since I was a little kid,
I would go through magazines of,

like, Vogue,
and I would watch "The Hills,"

and I'd be, like, "Oh, my God,
wouldn't that be so cool

to be going to those places?"

♪♪

When people throw parties,
they want,

like, the best-looking people,

and I think they know
that I can deliver that.

Nowadays, everyone wants to be
Instagram famous,

and it's, like,
it's a promotion.

You're, like, trying to sell
this, like, false lifestyle.



♪♪

I feel like there is
something special about me,

and I feel like it should be
shared with the world.

Woman: Sergio!

Shut the... up!

Uh, I hate this.

Brought you a coffee.
Oh, hey, Ash.

[ Groans ] You look hot.
Thanks.

Did you just get back
from a guy's house?

No.
Do I look like I did?

You look like the morning
after pill.

I'm so tired.
I hate this.

I hate the morning.

Mornings are for, like, ugly
people who have to, like work.

I hate it.

My persona on Instagram

is who I am in real life.

I'm a luxury item
in a thrift store, I felt like.

I'm going to do
a I-woke-up-like-this Snapchat.

Hey, guys.
I woke up like this, brutal.

Hey, guys.
I woke up like this.

I wake up.

I look at my, like,
text messages,

and then I look at Snapchat,

and then I look at,
like "Daily Mail" just to, like,

see what everyone in the
entertainment industry is doing.

[ Knocking ]

Shelly, it's open
like Ashley's legs.

Come in.
Hey, Shells.

Wa-la-la.
'Sup, yo?

I would hug you but.
You smell.

We're making mimosas.
You want one?

Duh.

Are you insane?

I'm sorry.

Would you rather
drink out of this?

I think I'll just make you
a new drink, my bad.

Why do you guys get cute cups
and I get that?

Because you're an ugly bitch.

Trash!
What the...

You're so...

Well, cheers, queers.

Do you still want to go
to Venice Beach

and, like, walk around?

I want to go, but I want
more than this.

What is this going to do?

Well, we can bring
the whole bottle with us.

With a cup of tea!
This ain't Vegas,

but I'm sure
we can get away with it.

♪♪

That's the stuff.

♪♪

Hello.

Hello, darling.

Hi, I'm Chloe Holmes,
and together,

me and Brandy
are the Spirit Sisters.

♪♪

I don't post, like,
boring photos.

I don't think Brandy
does either.

No.

Usually has to be
an interesting subject.

The idea is making fantasies
become reality.

And reach under your eyes,
pay attention, like, your -

Okay.
...eyes aren't burning.

My face is starting to itch.

Well, get used to it.

♪♪

Repopulate Mars is a party
that we do with my boyfriend,

Lee Foss.

It's very futuristic,
alien-themed.

You'll go there, and everyone is
dressed up in robot, futuristic,

cyborg, alien attire,
and then we design outfits,

so it's always,
when you go, like,

a whole kind of, like, art show.

Have you seen "Star Wars?"

That's kind of the vibe.

♪♪

There are lots of different
parts to making those costumes.

Lots of troubleshooting
goes on with it, for sure.

Yeah, troubleshooting,
solving the troubles,

working from the troubles.

♪♪

We had a little bit
of a wardrobe malfunction.

Girls with really big boobs,

it has no give whatsoever
on this mesh,

and if it's too big,
it's going to rip, and then...

Drama.

Titties that repopulate Mars.

Let's do this.

♪♪

Sergio:
I'm such a people's person.

I always like to be surrounded,
like, by people.

Having people around me
is like my security blanket.

You know, I just want to say
"Cheers" to life.

Some for me...

And some for my homies.

Woman: Jesus Christ.

You suck at taking pictures.

I want a rematch.
And you suck dick.

So do you!

Ready?
- Mm-hmm.

You look so cute.

I know.

I got a text
from Brandy and Chloe.

Who are they?

They, like, wanted me to come
over and chill by the pool.

Are you going?

I don't know.

It's either going down,
or it's not.

Yeah.

♪♪

♪♪

What up?

- Hi.
- Hi, guys.

What's up?
- Hi.

- How are you?
- So what do you guys do?

Um, I'm building a lifestyle
brand right now, so, like,

I'm collecting all,
like, my photos,

but I'm just in school
for business.

- Yeah? You love it?
- That's so cool!

Yeah, like, I'll talk to, like,
the least-ghetto person

that'll come up to me
and be like,

"Hey, what's your name?
Do you have Snapchat?"

I'm like, "Shyeah. I do," and,
like, we'll follow each other.

So I'll have, like, one minion.

Like, I'll have, like,
collect-a-minion.

- So bad.
- Yeah.

But they'll be like, "Did you
follow me on Instagram?

I followed you."
I'm like, "Unh-uh."

You don't want to be caught
following a minion?

- Unh-uh.
- Sergio is a character.

He just needs to grow up
a little bit,

and that's all it is.

We do, like, a party
that's, like,

super futuristic and stuff.

Oh, cool.
When's that?

The next one is next Saturday.
You should come.

Yeah, I'm down.
But you have to dress up.

You have to be, like,
futuristic or alien vibes.

Where do you find,
like, alien stuff?

Our biggest inspiration is
Home Depot.

- Home Depot, what?
- Yeah.

I think the alien
theme is desperate.

Maybe if they were, like,
8 years old, like,

I'd be like, "Oh, my god,
an alien party?

We have to go, you guys!"

Stink-o de Mayo.

I kind of, like,
put it in my braid.

Yeah, that's dope.
I don't like that.

Sorry, guys.
Yeah.

It's incense.
It's good for your soul.

I don't like that smell.

Do you like sage?

No.
It stinks.

Okay, babe, know
what really stinks?

Incense mixed with whatever
the... you sprayed on yourself.

Oh, my God. I'm going to get,
like, brain cancer

smelling that.
I can't.

He, like, has this, like,
I-don't-give-a-...mentality.

You can maybe not give a...
maybe have just a little bit

more, like,
respect for other people

whether you give a... or not.

So why don't you guys -
You guys gonna come to...

Repopulate Mars next Sunday.
Repopulate Mars?

- Yeah, babe.
- You have to dress up.

One hundred percent,
you have to dress up,

or you won't be allowed in.

When I get involved
and get invited,

like, it's not my branding,
so, like, for me,

I don't personally like
their theme at all.

Sounds fun.
I'm excited.

- Let's do it.
- Oh, yeah.

Sergio: In L. A., people use
their power to lure you in,

and it's all a trick.

At the end of the day,
no one does shit for you.

Bunnies, say "Good morning."
"Good morning, Instagram."

♪♪

I get inspiration
from a lot of things,

like taking ideas
that are completely,

like, out of left field,

and, like, forming them into
the idea

that we have in our minds.

You'll see what
I'm talking about.

♪♪

I feel like there's something
that I might not know

about myself
that I haven't discovered yet.

I feel like I'm a girl
trapped in a guy's body,

so I kind of, like, feel, like,
the women's vulnerability.

Are you guys on your period?
- On you on your period?

Why, are we being mean?

No, I'm just asking.

I just have, like, this,
really, like,

period feeling that
one of you guys...

The Sergio Brand is just always
looking your best

and having beautiful
people around you,

selling this,
like, false lifestyle

because I don't always just
hang out with pretty people,

you know,
or what people may think.

You know, I have, like,
my normal friends.

You know, I don't post pictures
with them, but I have them.

I don't even know what I'm going
to be like when we walk in.

Like, "Hey, guys, how"...
Like, I just...

Do you know them, like?

I met them through
mutual friends.

Ellie and Chloe and Zoey Hood
are going to be like,

"Who's that? Who's that hot guy
with those two hot bitches?"'

Twirl for good luck.

♪♪

♪♪

Woman: I'm really excited

because
people dressed up this time.

It's usually kind of hard to get
random people to dress up,

but I think because
Repopulate Mars

is becoming such
a little movement,

everyone is dressed up, and it's
really exciting to see that.

More people are catching on,

which makes me really
happy when people,

like, step out of their element.

Okay.

- You know us?
- You know us?

Who are we?

Who are we?

Oh!

♪♪

Sergio: My reason for going to
Chloe and Zoey's party,

is, you know, give them
a second chance.

Maybe they aren't
what I think they are,

and maybe they'll, like,
impress me, but we'll see.

I think that's very, like,
inappropriate.

They're, like, in their late 20s

throwing alien parties, like,
get the... out of here.

I would say one out of 10.

Sergio: Like, I just hope this
party turns out to be fun,

or somewhat okay - or tolerable.

♪♪

I've been coming here
for years, bro.

You know what I'm saying?
Good people.

♪♪

At the end of the day,
you're this

tiniest little speck in
the Universe.

[ Echoing, dance music playing ]

A good way to remember
that is to go outside

and look at the stars
and realize

how...
insignificant you are.

[ Echoing, dance music playing ]

♪♪

♪♪

All of our friends are here.

It's really exciting that
they came to support us.

Other parties sold out,

so I think there is a lot
of people downstairs, so but...

Unfortunately,
there's not really much...

- That we can do.
- We can do.

- Can I help you guys?
- Is this the alien thing-y?

- The what?
- The alien thing?

Do you guys have tickets or...

Um, we're with, like,
Brandy and Chloe.

- Who?
- Brandy and Chloe.

- Brandy and Chloe.
- Who's that?

Exactly, see?

What's your name?

Sergio Farias.
Is it just the three of you?

- Yeah. - Yeah. - All right.

You guys aren't on the list, but
I'm going to let you in, okay?

Okay, thanks.

I just need your IDs.

- IDs?
- Our IDs?

IDs. You know, when you
go out to a bar,

like, "Let's see if your ID?"

Yeah, but I thought
this was, like...

- Yeah, yeah.
- I need to see IDs,

unfortunately.

This is so embarrassing.

Usually, if you're going
to invite someone,

you let them know,

"Yo, this is how it's going down
do this, do that,"

and I followed every
instruction they gave me,

but it wasn't very accurate.

It's just so... up.

I feel like the movie
"Legally Blonde"

where they tell her to go
to the party as a playmate,

and nobody is dressed.

It is what it is.

Next time.

♪♪

Like, we wasted a lot of time
to make an effort to even,

like, come to this party,

and we're not
dressed like aliens

because I'm sure aliens...

We don't even know what aliens
look like, so aliens...

Everyone could have
been an alien.

Haven't you seen
"Men in Black?"

Narrator: Hollywood is a very
small town,

and when you talk bad about
someone behind their back,

they're bound to find out.

I've had a lot of people in
my life kiss my ass to my face.

As soon as I turn around,

they're whispering
behind my back.

I guess some people are so
desperate to make it out here,

they'll tell people
whatever they want to hear

or say outrageous
things for attention,

even if they don't mean it.

Sergio: Those... girls,
Brandy and Candy,

whatever their names are,
they li-

They literally had this
bullshit... party.

No, they had this bullshit
party, and then we...

At a bar!

- We were leaving there...
- At a bar.

Like, I don't judge people
like people think I do.

I don't know.
I don't know.

You sound like...

I could see how you would
have a good heart,

but then you, like,
do stuff where I'm like...

- You do.
- "That's so mean."

You do, but you just put up an
exterior for whatever reason...

- Yeah.
- For the sake of not being...

But if someone didn't know you,

I could see how they would think
you're, like, an asshole.

A bitch, yeah.
I guess.

Growing up, I was very bullied.

In eighth grade, I was, like,
the first person

to shave my legs,
and people were like,

"Look at that faggot," or like,

whatever they may
have said at the time,

like I would just start
to make fun of myself.

Like, I use humor as a way to,
like, escape reality,

so I just laugh things off,

and it's just, like,
normal to me now.

I'm a people's person.

You are a people pleaser.

- I'm not going to deny that.
- Okay, someone get the tissues.

I know, it's getting
real deep in here.

It's getting real... deep.

Sergio: I'm having, like, my own
party creative idea

that I'm having, and it's
an "Eyes Wide Shut" theme party.

It's inspired by
Stanley Kubrick's movie

"Eyes Wide Shut."

I just want all my special
friends to be there,

everyone who I support
and supports me.

Okay, let's get down
to business...

- Holy shit.
- And, like, start planning out

my party because I only want to
have, like, a few guys,

So last night, I went to
this party for this girl

Chloe and Zoey or whatever,

Chloe and Mandy...
...I forgot their name.

Whatever.
And, like, they invited me.

I think it was a pity invite,
like a pity...

but I don't know.
So then, like, literally, like,

they didn't disclose
any information.

They were like,
"Come to my party,"

and I was like, "Okay, I'll
come." Yeah, "I'll come."

I was, like, you know, because
that's nice of them to...

It was nice of them
to invite me, so I was, like,

"Okay, I'm going to go,"
and then, like,

A, they didn't tell me
it was at a bar.

Ashley is, like, 19.
She can't be at a bar.

Wait, is that why you want
to have a party, as well?

Like, you just came up
with this magical blog

so you can upstage them?

Listen, I'm not like that,
but I want have a better...

I just want to be, like,
"I'm having a better party,

and it's, like, mine's
going to be chic-er, sleeker."

It's...

Credit card?
You got it.

I guess I do need to get...
I mean, this is, like, my job,

basically, you know,
like, going to events

and, like, being seen and, like,
keeping relevant.

Have you gotten paid for that?

I've gotten paid once
to show up to an event.

Once. How long have you
been doing this?

Ten years.

You don't have a job.

You don't have money.

You don't have nothing.

I have cute clothes.

But I'm going to school.

How many years are you in?

This is my second year.

Oh, my gosh.
No, you have to understand,

I went to fashion and design
school when I was 18.

Okay, so...

What does that, like,
help for you?

Are you actually doing
something with that?

I'm going to eventually
