- I would love a water.

A water. With ice? Without?

- Whatever. Ice. Yeah.

- Oh, okay.

- Zipper?

- Oh, he doesn't need anything.

Okay.

I hope you didn't hit too much traffic.

Oh, it was... it was fine.

Oh, my ice maker's broken.

That's okay. I don't need ice.

Jerrica, let's go!

How much stuff do you have? Hurry up!

Here you are.

So, Miss Raymond, I have to tell you

that profile in The

Times was so inspiring.

You know, as a working woman myself.

Thank you.

The writer I wasn't sure

about, but thank you.

Oh, I thought it was really nice.

Thank you!

- You must be...

- Aja.

- Shana.

- I'm Kimber.

Uh, Jerrica.

Jerrica Benton. Come over here.

Jerrica Benton

You are cute and quirky.

And no longer Jerrica.

- Uh, what do you mean?

- What do I mean? What do you mean what do I mean?

The whole world wants to

know who you are right now.

Which means so much free publicity.

This is exactly the artist that

Starlight has been looking for.

Equal parts talent and

mystery. Talent, mystery.

Which reminds me. Twitter,

Instagram, Tumblr, all of that,

until further notice, none of it.

- Thank God!

- Wait, what?

- She's so awesome.

- And the money.

You get paid! Who doesn't want money?

After the last show, you get a paycheck.

But that's not what this is about.

I want you all to think of this as

an opportunity to reinvent yourselves.

Escape. Forget all that dismal

mediocrity that you grew up in.

Maybe take this moment to decide

who... who do you want to be?

Who is that person?

What does she look like?

And reimagine yourself

the way you want to be.

With a little help, of course.

- Okay. Say "hey."

- What?

Smile! Come on!

Shut that thing off. Get in here.

- Teasing. I'm teasing.

- Get in the car.

- Bye, Aunt Bailey!

- Here we go!

- We love you!

- Bye!

Bye!

And so there we were,

headed towards the unknown.

Then again, in a way,

I was coming home.

Back to the place Kimber

and I were born...

Los Angeles.

It had just been a while.

Morning, Ms. Raymond.

Thank you.

- You ready for the big adventure?

- Yes.

Oh, good. Well, I took the liberty

of arranging for some new instruments.

- This is love at first sight.

- Vipers?

Dude, that's sick.

How cool is that?

And ladies, this is

Rio, our college intern.

He'll take care of everything you need

while you're here, so just go to him.

- Hi, girls.

- Nice to meet you.

First, a couple of ground

rules... no drinking, no smoking

and absolutely no going

out after midnight curfew.

I thought rock stars were

allowed to do all that stuff.

Well, I'll bear that in

mind when I meet some.

Until then, follow the rules

and stay out of trouble.

Okay. Let's go.

- Weird meeting you.

- Likewise.

Oh, and, uh, good luck

with your style session.

This is Starlight Enterprises,

the house that Erica built.

That means changing the way

you act, the way you sound

and the way you look.

Ladies, I give you Erica Raymond.

Thank you, Esteban.

Okay.

Kimber.

Hmm. Not trying enough.

Aja. Haven't quite figured you out yet.

Oh, no, I got it.

You don't try at all. That's awful.

Shana.

Esteban, are you looking at this?

It reminds me of people

who dress up their animals.

Trying too hard.

Jem.

My Jem.

That's what we call you now.

- Interesting...

- Thank you.

if you live in the Valley.

Oh, my God, those boots.

I had those in high school,

and I got made fun of so much.

But I digress.

You're gonna have to lose the

earrings. They're so last season.

- Like 30 years ago.

- Oh.

Don't worry, we'll hold

them for safekeeping.

Okay.

Thank you.

We'll get there. I'm not saying

it's gonna be easy, 'cause it's not.

It's gonna be challenging and exciting.

You're giving us new looks?

We already have.

"Jem. Uncover the mystery."

What?

Uncover the mystery.

I'm so glad I thought of that.

This is us?

No, it's Photoshop.

But it will become a reality

before the first show.

Rehearsal starts in 20 minutes on Sunset.

The sooner we have a single to leak,

the sooner you become

the girls in the poster.

We're gonna have fun.

Lot of hours, though, in the day.

Mi, mi, mi, mi, mi, mi, mi

- Whoo!

- Whoo!

I need a cappuccino.

Cappuccino flyin' in.

We'll just keep on practicing.

Mrs... Mrs. Raymond, it's a

pleasure, always, to see you.

I, uh... I was wondering if you listened to

my demo yet. I was just thinking about it.

Do you have any response to it yet?

Uh...

So, yeah, I'll bring it around.

Bring the car.

That happens all the time.

So, we'll pick things up tomorrow.

In the meantime, I've arranged for your

transportation to take you where you're staying.

We get to borrow your car? Really?

Never!

No, your ride is over there.

What are you waiting for, Little

Miss Pink Hair and the Sing-Alongs?

Hop on in.

Everything was going so well.

Hello, Rio.

Does this thing even have seat belts?

We just got our hair done too.

- Are you...

- All right.

- Was that necessary?

- We are home.

He's the worst driver... ever.

All right, this is Starlight

Mansion. Your room is upstairs.

Hey, are these for us?

No?

Yes?

Thank you. I will take this.

This is amazing.

You can see the Hollywood sign.

Stop. What are you doing?

- I'll put them back later.

- When's later?

- Shh.

- You have a problem.

Duh.

This is your room. I'm just down the hall.

Call if the place is on fire. Bother

housekeeping if there's anything else.

And remember, midnight means lights

out on your little slumber party.

- Any questions?

- Nope.

Mm-mmm.

Perfect. Have a good night, ladies.

- Thank you, Rio.

- Thank you.

Yeah, I actually do have

one really quick question.

This is my bed. You

have to move your stuff.

I know that Erica said that this

room has, like, a specific name.

And I was just wondering if maybe

you could help me remember it.

- It's the Rock Star Suite.

- Oh! The Rock Star Suite.

Oh, that's right. Thank you.
