The Idol 1x2

1. - Hey. - Hi.

2. Okay, who knows why we've been summoned?

3. Jocelyn says she's found her new sound.

4. Oh, okay, okay. What about the sound we created for her?

5. You guys are enabling her.

6. There's obviously something a bit off.

7. - Not all oars are in the water— - The girl's mother died.

8. So, my mother's dead. Is your mother alive?

9. - You are somethin' else. - People die.

10. People die, all the time.

11. - Are you fuckin' joking now? - Everybody dies.

12. - Are you serious? - What?

13. - Hi, guys! - Here she comes.

14. - Oh, hi. - Hey.

15. Hi! Thank you guys so much for coming.

16. I know it was last minute and everything.

17. You call, we come.

18. So, last night, I got a little bit inspired

19. and I took "World Class Sinner"

20. and I re-did it.

21. What?

22. Well, I just— I made it my own a little bit.

23. Okay.

24. Okay, Nikki, before you make up your mind, will you just listen to it?

25. - I'm really excited to play it for you. - I mean—

26. - Sure. Sure, sure. - Is the speaker on?

27. - Yeah, it's set up. - Just gonna connect to the—

28. Baby, it's hard to see when you're lookin' at me

29. But I do what I want, don't give a fuck at all

30. Lookin' for something sweet

31. When it gets time to eat

32. You better start to run when I call

33. 'Cause I know that you don't really know how to handle it

34. My heart's cold as a stone

35. When you ask me who you're dealin' with

36. I'm just a freak, yeah

37. You know I want it baaad

38. I mean, okay, I'll go first. I mean, it's not happening, it's not.

39. - I mean, what? What? - Alright. Wait, hold on.

40. - Hey, Nikki. - It's not happening.

41. - It's not. Chaim, don't. - Okay.

42. Okay, but, Nikki, this is something that, like, no one's doing.

43. Well, yeah! There's a reason no one is doing this right now.

44. It's not commercial.

45. Okay, but I told you it's not finished.

46. By the time I finish it, it will be commercial.

47. Well, we have a giant fucking hit.

48. Why would we change it? Ticket sales are down.

49. But, Nikki, it's not me.

50. - It's not me. - The single drops next Friday.

51. We've already done our spends on radio,

52. on digital, on streaming,

53. and we spent $1 million on the goddamn fucking

54. giant strip club for the video that you and Sarah Lawrence here

55. are shooting this week.

56. Okay.

57. That's fine. I'll release it myself.

58. - Wait, baby. No, no, no, no, no. - What the fuck are you— Okay.

59. So you think you've got a bigger fuckin' dick than me now, Princess?

60. You wanna fuckin' back it up a little bit

61. and go through a little oral history of how we fucking got here?

62. Because I am more than happy. I'll spell it out for you.

63. Remember when your mother got sick? It was Finkelstein and I.

64. We came to you and we said, "We should cancel that tour."

65. And you said, "No, Nikki, don't.

66. Please. I can do it. Trust me."

67. And then a week before you're gonna play Madison Square Garden,

68. I get a call that you are out of your fucking mind,

69. babbling up on the roof, talking to things in outer fuckin' space.

70. All right, all right.

71. - We don't have to rehash— - So, wait, so what do we do?

72. We cut our losses, we refund the tickets.

73. We spent eight months getting you healthy

74. and then we spend millions sending you around the world,

75. putting you with producers

76. to give you an EP of giant fucking big-titted hits!

77. And now, you're gonna sit here and tell me

78. that, "It's not me. I don't like it."

79. Well, that's too bad. It's too fucking late.

80. That train has left the station

81. and whether you like it or not,

82. you are going for that ride!

83. My suggestion to you?

84. Appear grateful.

85. Put on that face, the grateful one.

86. Yeah, there it is.

87. Well, thank you, Nikki, for being so predictable—

88. You're welcome.

89. And

90. fuck everyone else for being a fucking coward.

91. I mean, who wouldn't be grateful after being talked to like that?

92. Your call has been forwarded to an automatic—

93. It doesn't make any sense.

94. We have a giant fucking hit.

95. Have some tact in the way that you say it.

96. But you know it was awful.

97. - Why don't one of you— - I actually like it.

98. - I think it's cool. - I think it's—

99. - I like all the breathing in it. - Oh, please. You don't like it.

100. We're not gonna win this one.

101. I just didn't realize how hard this was gonna be without her.

102. When I lost my mother, I was a wreck for a year.

103. Of course, my mother was nice to me.

104. What did you think of the song?

105. You don't believe in it?

106. You know what I believe in?

107. You.

108. 100%.

109. - Hey. - Why'd you play them the song?

110. - You know it's not done, right? - No, I know, I know. I just—

111. That was just the first night working together.

112. It was stupid. I was just excited.

113. No, you should be.

114. You know, there's a powerful voice inside you.

115. I wanna reach down and pull it out.

116. What are you doing right now?

117. You know, I'm just at the club.

118. Nice.

119. Just catchin' up on some work, you know?

120. - Nice. - Handlin' some business.

121. Are you with people?

122. Nah, it's just me here.

123. It's so late, I thought you'd be, like, sleeping or something.

124. I'm literally about to sleep and then I just— I realized my phone

125. was on silent all day, and my assistant had my phone—

126. So, where are you from originally?

127. I am from New York.

128. Really? You don't seem like you're from New York.

129. Wow. I've...

130. never been told that before.

131. I feel like everyone says that I—

132. I seem super East Coast, like, uptight and everything.

133. I've never been to New York.

134. Really? I mean, that's not bad, but it's—

135. Well, maybe you should take me some time.

136. Yeah, I mean,

137. we should go on a trip.

138. Show me around, I'd love that, if you can handle it.

139. Do you wanna come over and work on some stuff?

140. I can't tonight.

141. Okay, what about tomorrow?

142. Tomorrow, I don't think I can tomorrow either,

143. but maybe the day after?

144. Yeah, I can do the day after. I think that works for me.

145. I'm shooting a music video that day.

146. Maybe come over after?

147. Alright, well then, I'll see you

148. hopefully, I'll see you in a couple days.

149. Yeah. Yeah. That would be nice.

150. Take care of that voice. Try not to smoke too much.

151. Joss.

152. Joss. Come on. Time to get up.

153. I feel like you were up talking to that gross guy all night.

154. Coffee's on the side table.

155. So you're going back to the original version of the song?

156. Yeah. My manager said we're not gonna win this fight.

157. Well, maybe you need a new team.

158. You should be surrounded by people who believe in you

159. and trust your vision.

160. - Thank you so much. - You're welcome.

161. - You need anything else? - No.

162. You good?

163. You're not hungry?

164. You're not hungry?

165. No, it's really good.

166. Lasers, poles.

167. This is the set design for the music video.

168. - I love that— - She's gonna love that, right?

169. - Yeah. - That'll look great.

170. I'm not always so sure that I have a vision.

171. I think you know exactly who you are and where you wanna go.

172. Hi. We're here for the music video.

173. Do you ladies have ID?

174. - My apologies. - Thank you.

175. Thanks a lot, guys.

176. Sick.

177. Yes, she's coming.

178. - Xander, oh, my God. - You like it?

179. - I love it. - Good.

180. It's so sick.

181. - What do you think? - Do you love it?

182. It's just like— It's not really what I imagined.

183. What do you mean?

184. I just feel like it's really ironic.

185. Like, in a way that, like, the fans are not gonna understand.

186. So, I just got a text message

187. that the reason Jocelyn was three and a half hours late

188. is she was in a makeup trailer,

189. they were having to airbrush cuts on her inner thighs.

190. Joss, remember I showed you the photos last week at the house. We went through—

191. - Alright, here she is. - You approved them.

192. - Yeah, I know— - Hey, Joss.

193. - Hey. How are you? - You look great. Jesus.

194. - Look at this outfit. Gorgeous! - Thank you.

195. I don't wanna argue about it.

196. I can't have another incident like this. I can't afford it.

197. Okay, we're running way behind on schedule, so we'll get you

198. - on stage right away. - I know, I'm sorry.

199. I had to get, like, sewn into this thing and everything.

200. Makeup took forever, but

201. they're waiting for you up there. We'll get you at your one.

202. All right, people!

203. Let's make the dream happen!

204. - All right and action! - Seven. Eight!

205. Pop!

206. Sharp!

207. - One! - Baby, it's hard to see

208. When you're lookin' at me

209. - But I do what I want - Push, push!

210. Don't give a fuck at all

211. - Is it sexy? - Yeah, it's fucking sexy.

212. - Look at her. - Well, she's sexy,

213. but the whole scene, I don't know.

214. I think she looks like a really hot woman

215. dancing at a strip club with hot strippers.

216. But, off the record, do they seem gay to you?

217. - The strippers? The hot strippers? - Do they seem gay to me?

218. - The strippers? - Cut it!

219. Okay, that's a cut. We cut. Great, new setup.

220. - Excellent. - Yeah, Joss!

221. That was amazing, Joss!

222. Do you mind if we just playback?

223. Yeah! Let's get her playback.

224. I mean, they're kind of out-femming her

225. at certain points with the flips and the dips

226. and the gack-gadda-gack-gack-gow, ya know? - Yeah.

227. - That looked great. - Yeah, I can do this move a lot better.

228. And this whole beginning part needs to be tighter.

229. I feel like these lights are, like, really intense,

230. and they're, like, muddying up the skin tones.

231. I'm sorry. It's just like a first take.

232. - I know it'll be better next time. - Oh, no. It's brilliant.

233. - I mean, it looks great. - No, trust me, it'll be better.

234. Hold that pose, dancers.

235. Action.

236. Seven. Eight!

237. Sharp!

238. Sharp!

239. Take your time. Don't rush.

240. Baby, it's hard to see when you're lookin' at me

241. - Grab! Go! - But I do what I want

242. - I'm just a freak, yeah - Cut, cut!

243. - Guys, cut it! - Why did we cut, Kim?

244. Go, Joss!

245. All right, so we'll do a new deal. We got it. We're movin' on. New deal.

246. No, we didn't. Can I see it again?

247. I mean, it's fantastic.

248. - No, no, it's not. - We can't keep doing this.

249. I'm gonna keep doing it until it's right.

250. So, let's go one more time

251. and I'm gonna make sure to really throw the...

252. - Oh. Okay. - ... the heads the way I'm supposed to.

253. - All right. - I'm so sorry. None of this.

254. Guys! Sorry. One more.

255. All right, back to ones!

256. I also think Jocelyn's context is important here

257. because her mother died of cancer.

258. She had a very public breakdown.

259. She was cheated on by somebody who loved her.

260. Yeah, heartthrob Rob.

261. She's down.

262. Stop! Stop! Stop it!

263. Joss, we need to see you sing.

264. - Your mouth is not moving to the lyrics. - Okay.

265. Sorry, I think I was just—

266. I think I was just too focused on, like, getting all the beats right, but I'll...

267. You're really pushing it, okay?

268. - It's great. Trust me. - I don't think it's a bad thing

269. - to push for something that matters. - Trust me.

270. Can we just do one more? I really feel strongly about it—

271. All right, all right. One more, guys.

272. One. Two. Three.

273. Don't drop.

274. If you're not there to catch me, like, when I'm falling, it's just—

275. I'm gonna, like, crack my fucking head open, all right?

276. Cut it. Cut it, cut it, cut it!

277. All right. And cut it, please!

278. Great. All right, everybody take a break. Thank you.

279. - You okay? - Yeah.

280. Who is that dancer talkin' to Joss?

281. - Right there? - With the long—

282. That's Dyanne.

283. - Dyanne. - Why?

284. She's out-dancing everybody.

285. Does she sing?

286. I don't know.

287. She's good, though. She's a good dancer.

288. I know that it's, like, my fault because I probably should've, like,

289. looked closer at the photos.

290. But, if there's any way we could just, like, take today

291. and just, like, tweak some things about the set

292. and shoot tomorrow, like, I really think it'll be better.

293. I don't know. I don't know. You wanna just cancel today?

294. I'll write a fuckin' check right now.

295. That's how much it means to me—

296. Well, it's like $450,000 for a day.

297. I don't care.

298. - That's how much it means to me. - Well, I care.

299. I really feel like we don't have room for error here

300. and I just feel like this is gonna be like a fucking disaster

301. and it's gonna be, like, really, really humiliating for me.

302. As much as you're freaking out, they're worse.

303. All right? And if we do that, if we, like, pull out of today,

304. to them, it's gonna be like, "Okay, so in two weeks,

305. she gonna, like, pull out of a 50,000-seat arena,"

306. and they gonna pull the plug on the tour.

307. I don't wanna freak you out.

308. Yeah, but it's not the same thing.

309. I know, but to them, they don't know that.

310. So, look, whatever you wanna tweak, we're gonna tweak.

311. But first, you gonna show them that you got this, all right?

312. And show you fully committed, crushing it, and sell it.

313. Look at me. Hey, baby. You got this.

314. - You can do that. You can do it. - I can do this.

315. I mean this because it's— we don't have a choice.

316. Yeah, Joss. Freakin' kill it.

317. Come on, I'll tell you some information.

318. Places.

319. Let's do it!

320. - I talked to my guy. - Yeah?

321. He said that this dude's name is Tedros Tedros.

322. - He what? - All right. Camera set?

323. Owns a nightclub in Hollywood.

324. - Playback, action! - Owes a lotta people a lotta money.

325. This has been the last five years of my life. I'm in hell.

326. I mean, you could always go back to singing and dancing.

327. My big moment? Three episodes?

328. - You were great. - Thanks.

329. His last place of residency was Hawaii.

330. And then after that

331. he doesn't seem to exist.

332. His name is fuckin' Tedros Tedros.

333. He's from Hawaii. Did you know this?

334. - I don't think that he is. - Oh, he is.

335. No, we've looked into it. He's from Hawaii.

336. - Does this fulfill you? - Off the record?

337. - Off the record. - I never fucking get a say, an actual say.

338. I just am like—

339. I'm here 'cause I love her and

340. yeah, I don't know.

341. Partners!

342. - I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - All right, all right.

343. - Cut it! What? - I'm sorry.

344. I was really early on that part,

345. so that take— you can't even use that take at all.

346. Joss, no, we have to move on.

347. It's fine.

348. I'm gonna go check on her.

349. Okay.

350. All right, let's get ready, guys. We're gonna go after this.

351. - Let's get the dancers in there, please. - Love you, Joss.

352. He's a person of color.

353. - And he's— - Okay. What kind of color—

354. Does he look Hawaiian?

355. I don't think he— No, I don't think he's Hawaiian.

356. I think— His hair is straight and it's kind of long and—

357. That could be Hawaiian.

358. He's not.

359. - Who the fuck is this guy? - Sketchy as fuck.

360. Well, what does he look like?

361. He's a person of color.

362. Are you saying he's Black? You can say Black.

363. You're allowed to say Black.

364. Is he Black?

365. - Yes. - Okay, he's a Black guy.

366. - Yeah. - Okay.

367. - Do you know about her cutting her legs? - What?

368. You didn't know about this?

369. Sorry, but that take is, like, completely unusable.

370. - I really messed up this part. - Nikki, Nikki.

371. - What do you want me to do about it? - Go the fuck up there and talk to her.

372. Nikki, we've gotta go again!

373. Yeah, Nikki, it's fuckin' your job now.

374. - All right, well, then go take a break. - I mean—

375. The reason they were in makeup for three hours

376. is because she had these cuts on her thighs

377. and they had to airbrush it

378. - and cover them up. - Oh, shit.

379. You don't know about this?

380. No, I don't know nothin' 'bout it. If I knew somethin' 'bout it,

381. I would tell you before you tell me.

382. Who the fuck is the director? Me or her?

383. - Go have a lie down. - Fuckin' A.

384. - Jesus fucking Christ. - Go have a lie down in that cozy trailer.

385. Take 15, please.

386. Nice work, dancers. Get some water.

387. She said the glass broke on her thighs.

388. A glass broke on her thighs?

389. How did the— How did the glass break on her thighs?

390. It fucking breaks my heart to see her like this.

391. I don't know what this fuckin' is.

392. I'm really sorry, you guys.

393. I know you guys are tired.

394. Take a minute right now and we'll go again in a second, okay?

395. - But that's why we gotta step in. - Right.

396. Her mother's gone now.

397. - So now, we her new parents. - Okay, okay, okay. I know.

398. - That's what we promised her. - All right.

399. I'm telling you right now, these people in here

400. are gauging whether or not you still got it.

401. So this is what you need to do:

402. You got to go in there, and you got to give it your all.

403. 'Cause I'm telling you right now,

404. if you don't, these people gonna fuck up your career.

405. But, if you do, your fans are gonna say,

406. "Jocelyn is my motherfucking idol."

407. - Okay. - All right.

408. You can pull my hair

409. Touch me anywhere

410. Ball and chain

411. Okay. Yeah, no, you're incredible.

412. Aubin? You can sing, you can dance.

413. Aubin's gonna take you to stage five.

414. I want her to lay down a track right now.

415. - Right now? - Yeah, right now.

416. I'm really sorry. I've just—

417. I've had a really hard year with just, like,

418. losing my mom and everything, and I think just being back here

419. shooting the video, it's bringing up a lotta grief, and I'm probably,

420. like, more emotional than I would be.

421. So, I just— I really hope you take that into consideration when you're

422. - writing the article. - I will. Absolutely.

423. You're human.

424. We gotta go again, all right? Let's shoot it!

425. Come on, Joss. You've got this.

426. You look great, Joss.

427. All right, guys, reset.

428. Get it right.

429. I'm sorry, you guys. I just— I really gotta get this right.

430. Got to get it.

431. I wanna just go again right away.

432. - Let's just do one more take. - All right.

433. - I'm gonna get it. I promise. - We're gonna go again, right, guys?

434. Let's go again! We're gonna go again.

435. Let's go again! Can we roll?

436. Yeah. We're gonna go again.

437. Let's go again. Right? Come on, everybody, just get back.

438. We're just gonna go right back into it.

439. Alright, lights to one!

440. Camera ready, and action!

441. Take your time!

442. Nice! Yes!

443. - Baby, it's hard to see - Gorgeous!

444. When you're lookin' at me

445. But I do what I want

446. - Don't give a fuck at all - Yeah, Joss!

447. - Lookin' for somethin' sweet - Beautiful, yes!

448. When it comes time to eat

449. You better start to run

450. - Nice! - When I call

451. - 'Cause I know that you don't really know - Yes, get it!

452. How to handle it

453. Nice!

454. - So hot! - Yeah!

455. I'm just a freak, yeah

456. You know I want it bad

457. And we can meet, yeah

458. But I don't need to know your name

459. - What the fuck, Harry? What the fuck? - Adjust it. Adjust it.

460. What the fuck? I think the fuckin' motor slipped.

461. - I can't see her. I can't see anything. - I know. Alright.

462. Just give me a minute to, we have to bring

463. - the camera down... - This is the camera.

464. - ... the frequency. I'm not sure. - But that was gorgeous.

606. - Yeah, of course. - Thanks so much.

607. You sit down.

608. Sit down.

609. Your story's about to get a lot bigger.

610. So, Nikki is scrapping the music video.

611. Chaim? Am I gonna lose everything?

612. Look, you can't let them see that side of you.

613. - All right? It's really fuckin' dangerous. - I know.

614. A lot of people depend on me.

615. It's just irresponsible of me

616. to keep floatin' you for almost a year now

617. if you are not going to put out any commercial music.

618. I just can't keep covering half the mortgage, I'm really sorry.

619. I know, but you're not listening to me.

620. I'm telling you, I want to be bigger than this song.

621. I wanna be a once-in-a-generation artist,

622. and I wanna make music that lasts longer than my life.

623. But you're hanging by a thread right now.

624. You're practically broke. You're not putting out any new music.

625. You're not focused at all.

626. I mean, you don't like the song, I understand,

627. but you're not giving me any alternatives.

628. At the end of the day, it's not what you say, yeah?

629. It's what you do.

630. - Right. - It's what you make. It's what you sing.

631. Told myself I wasn't gonna lecture you.

632. You know,

633. I remember the first time I saw you perform.

634. You're 11 years old at Fox Hills Mall. You remember?

635. You played "Fever."

636. The audience went so crazy

637. they made you sing it a second time.

638. I never saw anything like it.

639. Right? I mean, before or since.

640. God gave you such a beautiful gift. I just...

641. I just want you to use it.

642. Chaim, this is the only thing I know how to do.

643. This is all I have.

644. Please don't give up on me.

645. Hello, Angel.

646. Hi.

647. What are you doing?

648. I'm just with a couple friends.

649. Do you wanna come over?

650. - I don't wanna intrude. - Yeah, it's fine.

651. You sure?

652. I'll see you soon.

653. Okay, great.

654. So, is she a better fuck than me?

655. Baby, nobody's a better fuck than you.

656. You didn't tell me it was a setup.

657. - A setup? - You said it would be good for the club.

658. It's great for the club.

659. Yeah, but you made music with her.

660. She asked me to.

661. And guess what?

662. Nikki wants to sign me.

663. Nikki? Jocelyn's label?

664. Great. I can finally get that return on you.

706. Not really.

707. You're gonna take it like this, in a fist.

708. I have to get up early and—

709. - Yes. - Look at me.

710. - Yes? - You can't trust me?

711. I trust— Well, I just met you, but—

730. What happened?

731. I was at my music video shoot

732. and I...

733. I started crying a little bit,

734. and then I, I couldn't stop crying

735. so we had to call it a day.

736. Are you okay?

737. Yeah.

738. I'll be okay if they don't cancel my tour.

739. I used to sing at a church in Ladera.

740. Both my parents were pastors there.

741. Tedros was at a service one day.

742. - Really? - Yeah.

743. - Randomly. - I would've not expected him

744. to be into church.

745. No, you'd be surprised. I mean,

746. he's very godly.

747. They're not canceling your tour, all right?

748. - No. - You don't think so?

749. - No. - Yeah, but I'm unreliable.

750. Unreliable? Who gives a fuck? Look at this.

751. I'm unreliable. They can't rely on me.

752. - They can't— - Yes, they can. You're fucking—

753. They'll figure it out.

767. He...

768. He transformed me.

769. Like how?

770. By pushing me further than anyone's ever pushed me before.

771. What are you doing?

772. Blockin' out all the noise.

773. You're too distracted.

774. Too much shit goin' around.

775. I don't know.

776. I think I just have to

777. give them somebody they can rely on.

778. - You know? Somebody they can— - Fuck them.

779. - Somebody they can invest in. - Fuck them.

780. If they can't rely on you, they're in the wrong fuckin' business.

781. The night we meet, we talk about "When Doves Cry"

782. and you got a fuckin' Prince photo in your house?

783. What are the fuckin' chances? There are no coincidences in life.
