Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll (2015–2016): Season 1, Episode 9 - Take My Picture by the Pool - full transcript

Gigi gets a huge record deal while Bam and Rehab quit the band to become EDM DJs.

Holy shit. No whiskey in your coffee?

Must be something serious.

Why don't you blow me?

- Why? 'Cause Ava isn't?
- Yeah.

She told Gigi that things have slowed
down for you guys in the sack lately.

Look at me. I'm your age.

And I got a 21-year-old girlfriend, right?

- Look at you. You look like shit.
- She's not your girlfriend.

You're a revenge fuck.
That's what you are, okay?

She's just sleeping with
you to get back at me.

Dude, your daughter's worried about you.



Your woman isn't interested
in having sex with you.

Ava loves me. That's a given, okay?

She doesn't want to blow you.

So that's in danger of turning into
a brother-sister kind of love.

I have a sister.

I don't find her attractive. You know why?

'Cause she's my goddamn sister.

Get your shit together.

Take a good look in the mirror.

Actually, don't look in the mirror.

Why?

It ain't that pretty, pal.

Hey, hon, how old do you think I look?

I don't know.



How old do you want to look?

Fantastic. I love it.

And it couldn't come at
a better time, guys.

What do you mean?

I have some potentially big
and earth-shattering news.

I got an offer from Sony Music.

Get this. They want to sign Gigi.

They think she's gonna
be the next big thing,

and the advance is $250,000.

What?

Hang on. Hang on, everybody.
Everybody, just relax.

Relax. I'm not done yet.

As with all things too good to be true,

And there is a significant catch.

Who cares? It's $250,000.

Signify, baby. Go ahead.

They don't want the whole band.

What do you mean?

They only want you.

Okay, screw that.

We're not doing that. No way.

You tell them they take everybody

or they don't take anyone, right, guys?

- Right.
- That's right. We're a team.

We create as a team.

And this particular team
sticks together, right, guys?

- Right.
- Absolutely.

They also want to hire Johnny and Flash

to be Gigi's songwriters.

I mean, you know, "team"
could be the wrong word.

Yeah, we're not the goddamn NBA here.

We don't have uniforms.

What are you talking about?

This is family, guys.

That's what's most important.

They'll make a separate
deal with Johnny and Flash,

and you'll each get your own advance.

Although, you know, family really
is about blood and cohabitation.

Yep, it really is.

What'd they say about me and Rehab?

They said the drummer was too fat.

Told you to go on a diet.

And the bass player looked old enough

to be Frank Zappa's father.

Ha-ha. How's your face now?

You know, you are looking
pretty ancient, Rehab.

So do you, John.

And they also want you
to get a full makeover,

head to toe... New haircut,

new threads, new image.

They start their PR machine,

they don't want Gigi standing
next to someone stuck in 1992.

Their words, not mine. I'm sorry.

Guys, we're not actually
gonna do this, right?

They're gonna bring in a famed pop producer

named Amor to do the single.

And they want to shoot a video.

Now, I want to be clear here.

They want something commercial.

They're not gonna throw
this kind of money around

unless you're willing to sex
it up and sell out a little.

Sell out?

Guys, we're not gonna sell out.

A little... Just sell out a little.
That's what he said, okay?

Let's all relax.

It's not our decision.

It's Gigi's decision, right?

- It's Gigi's career.
- Yes, it is.

It's Gigi's image, honey.

So you shouldn't be thinking
about what Ira wants you to do

or what I want you to do.

You should be thinking
about what you want to do.

And I know you probably need some
time to make that decision, so...

Yes.

This is why I came here.

This is what I've wanted
since I was five years old.

This has been my dream. Amor is huge.

He secretly produced huge pop hits for J.Lo

and for Ariana Grande and Rihanna.

I'm sorry, you guys.

I really, really am.

But this could be my big break.

Listen, I can get you guys some DJ gigs.

Steve the Monkey's got a ton
of birthday parties coming up,

and he's thinking of busting a few moves.

DJ gigs with monkeys.

Yeah, it falls under the
beast-core umbrella and... so...

Screw you, Ira.

You don't get to fire us, man.

'Cause we quit.

Wait. Wait a minute, okay?

No, we do not need you assholes.

We do. We do need these...

No, beast-core does not
have an umbrella, man.

Okay? And you don't know
the first thing about it.

We invented it.

Time Out New York called us cutting-edge.

And we are not about to sell out

like some pop-schlock pissants

who are ready to suck some corporate cock.

- We are performance artists!
- Yeah.

- We have integrity!
- Yeah.

We have a beast-core manifesto!

- We do?
- Yeah, man, in the...

I showed you the notes... What
I showed you in my notebook.

That was more of a list, dude.

- Beast-core manifesto!
- Manifesto.

Rule number three: we don't sell out!

Come on, man.

Douchebags.

You know, my real family
broke up three times

'cause of my three dads,

and I thought this family
would be together forever.

But I guess that's my fault
for being a big, fat fool.

When do I get to give Johnny his makeover?

- When do I meet Amor?
- I need a copy of that song.

- I have it in the sound booth.
- You go get it.

Sony is not pinching pennies with us.

Look at this. This is Lavandier cognac.

This is like $5,000 a bottle.

Yeah, well, you might want
to swig some of that down

because your face is gonna be pretty sore

after these treatments.

Well, such is the price of fame.

What do you got lined up?

Okay, we have a dermal
ablation laser resurfacing,

A micro-current under-peel,

a liquid nitrous oxide injection,

and some lipotripsy radial shocks.

Sounds like you're working on a car.

We are. A 1992 Chevy Impala.

But by the time we get done with you,

you are gonna be a shiny, new 2016 Ferrari.

Yes, I am.

Diggin' your demo, dog.

That shit is on fleek, yo.

I'ma rework the beat, play with it,

kick it up, add some swavy
new lines and shit.

That's what I do, dog.

That's cool.

"Swavy." I dig it, dog.

Who's directing the video?

My nigrum B-lap.

He fleek too.

What's "B-lap" stand for?

Bitches be lapping up his vids, yo.

He's done Rihanna, Timberlake.

Wow, that's pretty heavy company.

Yo, Sony say you the next big thing, G.

Your star on fleek, like, what?

You stoked, dog?

I'm fleeked. I'm fleeking out.

- No, you're not.
- I thought I was.

I'm definitely stoked.

It's all good, B. You get it.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.

- Do you know what EDM stands for?
- Yes, I do.

"Extremely douchey music."

Not the way we're gonna do it.

We remix What's My Name?

Look, we still use some
of our animal sounds.

Only, we also use Gigi's vocal underneath

from yesterday, which I
recorded on my phone.

And we drive it with bass
and drums and synth loops.

Yeah, it features a human voice.

But dig this: are we not animals?

Animals who are stealing songs.

We helped them write that song.

Dude, creative control, that's the reason

we started beast-core in the first place.

All right, technically, we are animals.

I'm barely evolved.

- I'm like a ape.
- Yeah.

I spend half my time drawing
pictures of genitalia.

I'm a cheetah.

Dude.

What?

I'm... I'm fast, dude.

I'm very fast on my feet.

Dude.

I'm very nimble.

You put a cheesecake on a

You're not a cheetah. You're like a panda.

I'm not a panda.

I've been a panda my whole life.

I'm a cheetah. I'm a cheetah, or I'm out.

That's it.

Who's my cheesecake cheetah? Come on.

You're getting too excited.

I'm sorry for yelling at you.

I know.

All right, so how do we
make money off of this?

Well, I think that we use some of the cache

that we got from the first beast-core gig.

We use all those emails
from those fashion types.

We invite a lot of downtown
hipsters and stuff.

We do an EDM event.

We throw it here,

redo the entire space inside.

You and me deejay.

I'm telling you, hot DJs make,
like, major cabbage, bro.

I'm talking like 10 grand a day.

They see us. They love us.

They give us gigs galore
for 10 grand a day.

We can't deejay EDM gigs, okay?

We're too old. I got
fired for being too fat.

You got fired for looking like
Frank Zappa's grandfather.

His father. Dude, his dad, please.

I'm sorry. All right. All right.

Anyway, I got that angle covered.

How old are the guys from Daft Punk?

Nobody knows.

Exactly.

I got it.

'Cause we're beast-core.

Okay, this is what we're doing?

Let me see.

God.

Damn, girl, you the bomb.

A sex bomb.

I feel like a whore.

A sexy whore.

Dude's a trip.

You can't argue with success, right?

And he's reworking the track.

And then I have to go in tomorrow

and lay down the new vocal.

But I'm just praying that the songs

are better than the clothes.

Well, but, honey, they did tell us

we had to sex it up a little bit.

Just don't forget I'm gonna be with her

in the studio tomorrow,

so you two have to take that dinner meeting

with those Sony hotshots.

Yes, at Craft. I've always
wanted to go there.

They serve a $7,000 bottle of wine.

Ooh, okay, come and look at what we got.

Still happy we took the deal?

My dick certainly is.

This shit is dope, dude.

Yeah, it's kind of cool,

It's supposed to be tight.

It's NASCAR approved.

Yeah. My God.

The food is for the guests.

Speaking of which,

Got a ring to it.

Yeah, and neither is my dad's.

Let's blow this joint, papi.

It's a wrap, ladies and gentlemen.

Flash was all Gaga this and Gaga that.

He loved it when I looked like a whore.

So you know what I said to him?

I said, "Why don't you just go find Gaga?"

So Flash is in the doghouse.

Yep.

I'm telling you, we did
the right thing, okay?

'Cause if they sold you like J.Lo,

you'd have to be shaking your
tits for the next 20 years.

Flash may have had his head up his ass,

but I certainly didn't, thank God.

Well, we all kind of got seduced

by the pop music pot of gold.

- I know I did.
- I didn't.

- Really?
- Nope.

There's nothing that you're gonna miss?

Well, I mean, I'll miss the Lavandier

when I run out of it.

I'll miss the limos

and the money and the sex.

I'm gonna miss it all. But you know what?

I don't regret telling
those people to go to hell

because you're gonna be around

a lot longer than all of 'em, honey.

Well, you know what, honey?

You have a few more hours

Honey, I'm not Jon Bon Jovi.

And I never will be, okay?

Dad, a Jon Bon Jovi blow
job is still a blow job.

What did I tell you about

You said to not say it, but I did anyway.
