Star (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Infamous - full transcript

When Star, Simone and Alex are invited to perform at a fancy charity event, Jahil puts Alex in the lead and strongly encourages Star to ditch Hunter. Ultimately, Star still manages to be the star, while Jahil dodges a debt.

Okay, so last time
y'all saw Star...

You're not happy to see me?

I didn't kill Otis.

Well, if Simone didn't kill him,

then who did?

Can you switch for me? Yeah.

Why does everything have
to be a fight with her?

'Cause that's all
she's ever known.

Well, if we're ever gonna
make it as a group,

she needs to get it together.

My dad is in jail.



Must be why you're so
tight with your mom.

You sure you want to give
me your credit card?

I see $20,000 spent

in a high-end fashion boutique.

This is Detective Belkin from
the Atlanta Police Department.

When's the last time
you saw your husband?

Jahil's up to something.

It's only a matter of time.

Lord, I know you got this...

that you oversee all of this,

but please keep an extra
lookout for this girl.

She's naive and ain't got a clue

about this thing called fame.

Maybe if you pull your
eyes away from yourself,



we can get to work.

I know the work and the song.

The children's hospital
event is tomorrow.

We need to be working.

This is work.

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought
we were singers.

It says right here,
"Word on the street is

that Morgan's new love interest,

Ms. Star Davis..."
that's my name...

"is the leader of a new
up-and-coming girl group

out of Atlanta."

There is no leader.

It's publicity, Alex.

- That's all.
- Not the right kind.

Do you want to be known as some
football player's piece of ass?

Our likes are sky-high, and
we're trending off the charts.

No. You. You're trending.
Not our music.

Jahil is late again.

Do you think it has something to
do with this whole Otis thing?

I think Jahil has a hangover.

I think that's what's
wrong with Jahil.

Down.

Yeah.

You lucky son of a bitch.

Wait ten minutes. Then go.

♪ ♪

I paid off your debt

to Maggie and the traffickers.

You've been keeping
your word to Ed.

You've been good to Hunter.

I owe you.

Yeah, you do, big time.

The minute I made
that phone call

and stopped that bullet from
blasting your brains out,

that is when I became
majority shareholder

of your little
musical enterprise.

From now on, the split
is 80-20, 80-20

- in my favor.
- There is no way

I'm giving up my group.

Nonnegotiable.

Star.

I want her out.

Look, she is a loose cannon,

- I know that, but she is...
- Trash.

- No, she's the face of the group.
- Mm-mm, not the group that I own.

Listen, Arlene, there is
no group without Star.

You can't have a group without
Star at the head of the group.

You know, the only thing
that I should be hearing

from your mouth right now is, "Thank you.
Thank you, Arlene."

Yeah.

All right, well,
look, they-they...

they got a performance
tomorrow night.

Good. Make it be her last.

No, no, no, make her
want it to be her last.

Keep that bitch
away from my son.

Let's try it again, this
time with Alex on lead.

- Vocal and dance.
- What?

Can you do it?

I mean, yeah, I wrote it, so...

All right, let's do it again, then.
Alex up front.

This is a joke, right?
You're joking?

You know what the joke is?

You and your antics

putting our Atlanta
NextFest slot in jeopardy.

- That's what the joke is.
- You're serious?

You don't think they monitor
all that TMZ garbage?

Trust me, they do, and
this one right here

with her sleazy behavior...

you think that's what
they want to promote?

It ain't. The image, the
perception they're trying

to put out there is
that their contestants

are decent, caring human
beings, all right?

That's why we're doing
this charity event.

They're not looking for
some fame-hungry monster

who's banging the
local quarterback.

And that's why
you're doing this,

'cause of Hunter.

Did you hear what I said?!

But I'm right, though.

Alex... take the lead.

Why did I name you Star?

Because I came out
of you shining.

That's right.

I want to be like you, Mama.

No, you don't.

Listen... you have to promise me

that you're gonna be
better than me, okay?

Promise me.

Promise me.

Promise me.

Shouldn't be walking here.

Shouldn't be driving here.

I went by the studio
to look for you.

The girls said you took off.

They're worried about you.

Good. Tell them I died.

I came here to apologize.

Your mother know that?

Get in the damn car.

How am I supposed to open it?

Damn, who made the
door like this?

It has nothing to
do with the money.

I was shocked, okay?

And, yeah, a little hurt.

I'm into you, Star.

Right... which is why you let
your mother talk to me like that

without even letting
me explain myself?

Okay, with my ma it's a little
complicated, all right?

Oh. What was that?

What-What are you doing?

Sorry, I thought I just heard

your big balls roll
onto the floor.

I was looking for them.

It's the finances, okay?

I ain't good with
that kind of stuff

and I come from nothing,
just like you, Star.

And my ma, she handles
all the money.

And yeah, you're right.

I should have heard you out.

We got two very different

versions of nothing. Okay?

I had to scratch and claw
for everything I ever got.

So, when somebody hands
me a credit card,

that street bitch
just comes out.

I wasn't thinking about you.

I wasn't thinking about...

anything.

I want you to be
my street bitch.

Don't ever say that again.

Please don't ever say
that again, okay?

See you at rehearsal.

Yo.

Go easy on Star.

Soon as she goes easy on us.

Why'd you take away
that lead from Star?

You're better for it.

Not last week.

Then it was all about having the
white girl front and center.

- Not true.
- Oh, please.

What the hell is
going on, Jahil?

Look, you want to live
in Star's shadow,

or do you want the
world to really know

who Alexandra Crane is?

Huh?

It is all about you, baby.

I've been watching
you, and I was wrong.

It's you.

Forget about them
low-rent bitches.

She's a really good
person deep down.

But her ego is...

Yeah.

When I was her age,
ego was my religion.

We got that in common for sure.

You know, maybe we
could, I don't know,

try and get her to
come to church.

Sorry, Pastor, but Star is
not the church-going type.

I wasn't, either.

But I don't know,
we might be able

to work our magic
from both sides,

and bully her into
coming in or something.

What do you think?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

Let's do it.

Yeah, Uncle Cross
will love that.

Just bring me some.

All right. I'll see you then.

All right.

Who was that?

My cousin Mecca.

My Uncle Cross'
birthday's tomorrow.

We're doing, like, a
barbecue thing for him

with the family...

that I can't wait
to show you off to.

Don't make me nervous.

I'm not everyone's style.

They're gonna love you,
babe, you know that.

What is this? What's
going on here?

This song, for the
Music Loves event.

Jahil wants me to
sing lead on it.

Blondie's mad.

Good.

Tell here to scratch
her ass and get glad.

She need to be knocked
down a notch.

Yeah, she does.

But I don't know.
Something's not right.

I mean, what's right is putting
your beautiful face up front.

That's what's up.

- Can I hear it?
- Yeah.

Rashid just got shot.

What?

Damn, who told you that?

That was his mama
Regina on the phone.

The boy was just picking
up some groceries for her.

Was it the police?

I don't even know.
She was a wreck.

I couldn't even understand
nothing she was saying.

But who else could it be?

Who else... who
else could it be?

He... he was in a gang, too.

Don't go there yet, Cotton.
All police ain't bad.

I done had quite a few.

Some of the best sessions
I done ever had.

Bitch, you gonna burn in hell.

Girl, that's what they say.

Pastor here.

I'm gonna send him
right to Regina's.

Cotton, why don't you
run up to my bedroom

and get that old curling iron?

Really? Say it.

Just say it.

You don't want me here when
your holy crush walks in.

Just get the damn iron.

I think it'd be good for you.

But I'm clean now.

They'll help you stay that way.

Hey.

I was just telling Simone

about my friend's
recovery group, you know?

That'd be real good.

I invited Pastor over
for Sunday dinner.

That's if it's okay with you.

Um, so I'll just
see you on Sunday.

Hey, Bobby, would
you mind just going

and checking on Sister Regina?

Her son got shot.

My God.

Okay, I will.

See you, babe.

All right, I'll text
you her address. Yeah.

Look, I'm not a miracle worker.

I need more time.

Yeah, I hear you loud and clear.

♪ Forever ♪

Great, and take a five.

You hear that?

Yeah. Alex sounds good.

Yeah, she is good, just
not as good as me.

I know you're unhappy,
really, and I'm sorry.

No, I don't care
if you're sorry,

just put it back the way
that it's supposed to be.

No, it's the right thing to do

for now, trust me.

Why you gotta make this
so damn difficult?

Because you won't tell me

the real reason you
just made that switch.

You want your place
back up front,

- stay the hell away from Hunter.
- Why?

'Cause he told me that
you snort more coke

than Tony Montana?

Or because you're
just plain jealous?

You know, Star, whether you
want to believe this or not,

all I care about is
what's right for you.

Now, I love Hunter
like a nephew,

but he is bad news...
Trust me on this.

Don't get caught up with him.

You're pissed off because
Hunter's everything you're not,

and he has me.

You ungrateful little bitch.

Give up the blow, and maybe
I'll give up Hunter.

Baked chicken and
sweet potato pie?

Since when you
became Paula Deen?

My pastor is coming by
for dinner after church.

You sure you want me to be here?

Stop that.

Come on, Mama.

- Now, we both know what's up.
- Really?

What is up, Cotton?

You chose to be who you are.

Don't put your issues on me.

And I ain't having
dinner without you.

So I'm supposed to
say thank you now?

- ♪ I... believe ♪ - ♪ I
believe in the Lord... ♪

Don't even worry about it, Mama.

'Cause your precious
pastor ain't gonna know.

Not unless you tell him.

And why would you do that?

♪ Angels came from
heaven down... ♪

♪ ♪

I don't know.

Then don't ask for
my help, then.

You look cute.

Girl, you look normal.

Okay, for God's sakes,
this is a barbecue.

Just don't use your
big-ass words,

and slouch a little bit...
Slouch, slouch.

That's already better.

- Yeah, there you go, yeah.
- I don't slouch.

Look what I got for
the charity event.

You think it's cute?

Is that what you're wearing?

I'm going to Derek's
uncle's barbecue first.

How come I'm not invited?

Like you'd want to go.

Hunter said he wanted me
to be his "street bitch."

Wow, he's a kinky one, isn't he?

And Star isn't?

I don't know, you guys.

You think his family
will respond to me?

Respond to you?

- Yeah.
- No.

Not if you talk like that.

Just go in there
and act regular.

Don't stare at any
of his cousins

who have missing teeth,

and don't squint
or act surprised

by his aunties with bad weaves.

You gotta respect the fact

she didn't grow up
the way that we did.

What I respect is us having

our priorities straight.

Like you getting the
lead spot back?

Oh, no, that's your
spot today, Alex.

Everybody who's anybody in
Atlanta's gonna be there.

Kill it.

Don't fall on your face
'cause you're letting me

rent space in your head.

Star, why you gotta go
say stuff like that?

Grow up, Simone.

No, you grow up!
Stop hurting people.

Alex didn't ask for
that lead part.

Then she should have said no.

Why can't you put
your ego on the shelf

for a second and be supportive

of someone else for a change?

because a bunch of drunks at
a barbecue told her she is.

Wait until she has to perform
in front of an entire audience

of people who matter.

She said "Not as hot as you."

So you all set?

Yeah. A little nervous,

but good.

So where is, uh, where's Star?

Bringing up the rear.

You clean up good, Unc.

Why don't, uh...

why don't you guys
try to find a place,

and do what you got
to do to get ready.

You're gonna go on
after the speeches.

Oh. Want to come?

Si.

Hey, Hunter, you mind if
I talk to you a minute?

Yeah, sure.

How you doing?

Good. Just enjoying some
free time before minicamp.

You?

Fine. Listen, I need
to ask you a favor.

I don't have any money
for you, Jahil.

Stay away from Star.

Excuse me?

Just do what I'm asking, please.

You want her, don't you?

Just... stay away.

All right? It's the right thing.

Thank you.

Yo, what the hell was that? How
could you let that happen?

I didn't know she was gonna do all that.
What do you want me to do?

You're supposed to be our damn manager
and you can't even manage her!

I can't even deal with you
right now, all right?

Star?

Mira.

I can afford to break our
little agreement, Jahil.

You, on the other hand, cannot.

I just... I need...
I need more time.

I asked you to do two things.

Kick her out of the group

and get that mop-head of a
bitch away from my son.

- What happened?
- Arlene, please.

There's got to be another way.

Don't force my hand.

I can't believe
that she did this.

I'm so sorry, Alex.

She had me fooled for a minute.

Stop. Just... It's all right.

No, it's not all right.

There's something
wrong with my sister.

There's something wrong
with both of you.

I'm sorry, Simone. I
didn't mean that.

Yes, you did.

And you're right, there is
something wrong with both of us.

I'm gonna go check
on my grandma, okay?

Okay.

Alex, you are the star.

Where you been?

Heaven.

I met a man, children.

The man.

Okay.

Are you gonna be all right?

Yeah.

I just posted our video on the
Atlanta NextFest Web site,

and it is trending
off the charts.

Nobody's even close, it's crazy.

And you're pissed.

Which I understand.

But Alex, you did great, too.
And people will see that.

What matters is that
we're in, right?

All right, she don't get it.

It's exactly why I got
to leave this outfit.

You hurt her, Star.

And she will get over that.

But what matters right now
is that thousands of people

are looking at us,

Simone, us.

You keep it up and
there won't be an us.

I mean, look at you...

The jealousy, the ego.

You know that's what broke up
Mama and Miss Carlotta, right?

And now look what you're doing.

Simone.

I can't with you.

I got us to number one,

y'all should be thanking me.

It was supposed to be a
routine traffic stop.

One which ended in tragedy

as Danielle Jackson

was shot and killed by police

- after they claim...
- Danielle.

She reached for a gun in
her glove compartment.

Oh, no.

No gun was found at the scene.

Oh, no.

No, she don't have no gun!

- What?
- They took her.

This is the second incident...

They took her.

Of an unarmed African
American citizen.

- Danielle don't do nothing like that!
- It's all right, babe.

She don't do nothing like that.
No, no, no.

Police and local authorities

urge calm until all
the facts are in.

Oh, my God.

It's okay, baby.
