Tell me it ain't true.

It sounds really nice, Ratsy.

Just, if it gets loud in here

turn it up

in the monitors for me.

Thank you.

-What's up, ash?

-Oh, "what's up?"

-Are you kidding me?

-I'm so sorry.

I really am.

I wanted to tell you--

I've-I've dedicated

my entire life

to making you the biggest star

on the face of the planet.

You just can't quit now.

Well, you got a responsibility,

not just to me but to your fans.

-Have you thought about them?

-Mm-hmm.

You're their everything.

You're their life.

Is this because

of the last album?

This is not because

of the last album.

They've had 20 years.

I don't care

about selling out stadiums.

I don't wanna book

year long tours.

My priorities are changing.

You're gonna get used to it.

You're gonna like it.

Or you can work

with somebody else.

Chelsea, baby, you know...

You know, I'm gonna be with you

to the bitter end.

So if you're happy

with the last album, what is it?

-Why are you givin' up?

-I'm not giving up.

I just,

i am taking a break...

Indefinitely.

Because, uh...

For one thing...

-What's this?

-What does it look like?

What? How?

I can explain it to you,

if you need me to.

Well, how far along

are you?

Be happy.

I'm five months. Look.

What?

How did I not see this?

Well, first of all,

you didn't wanna see it.

But we haven't

been talking about it

and we just wanted to be sure

you know, after last time

everything's a 100%.

When are you gonna announce?

-Next week.

-Next week?

Yep.

Is he here?

He had a thing.

-A thing?

-Mm-hmm.

Mm. Come with us

to dinner though.

We're gonna go

to dinner afterward.

No, three wheels

make a tricycle, baby.

I'll let you grown-ups

have fun on your own.

When has that ever

stopped you before?

-What? You serious?

-Yeah, come with us.

Chelsea! Chelsea! Chelsea!

I guess this is it.

-Yeah, kinda.

-Mm-hmm.

I hate you, b*tch.

I hate you more.

Chelsea! Chelsea! Chelsea!

Hello, New Orleans.

Let's have some fun

tonight, huh?

Yes.

Thank you so much.

You all were lovely.

You know, ever since

i was a little girl

all I wanted to do was sing.

And thanks to y'all,

I've been able to do that.

Thank you.

Thank you for everything.

This exceeded my wildest dreams.

Uh, but after tonight,

I'm gonna take a break.

Next week,

I'll make an announcement

and, and I'll explain

everything.

It'll all make sense.

But meantime, what I wanted you

to know is, is that I love you

and I appreciate you

and thank you.

Alright.

-Chelsea!

-Chelsea! Chelsea!

Everybody, back up

a little bit, please.

Chelsea.

Chelsea, Chel, Chelsea!

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Chelsea, get in the car.

Chelsea, it's me, frank.

Frank sharp, frank sharp.

-Let's go.

-Get in the car.

No, it's okay.

-I got this. It's okay.

-You know this guy?

Yep, I got this.

Okay. Hi. Hi.

I just wanted to say hi

before you left.

Yeah. You know what? Can you

loosen your grip a little bit?

Oh, yeah, yeah. Sorry.

I'm...Sorry.

I just love you.

I-i have all...

I got all the materials,

my materials of you

for the fan page and I got

so much stuff, I was thinking

you know, I should start

writing your biography.

Oh, that's a great idea.

Thank you. If you do that.

Will you send me a copy?

-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah?

Okay, perfect.

Okay.

Okay, have a good night.

-Have a good night.

-Have a good night.

Alright.

Wow.

God, that was incredibly

dangerous

and incredibly disgusting.

I can't believe

you just did that.

I think I can still smell him

on you.

Oh, don't be mean.

He's just. He's...

Your very crazy, sweaty, fan.

He is sweaty.

So sweaty.

You sure you wanna quit this?

I'm not quitting.

I'm refocusing my energy.

You sure about that?

Decision made.

We'll see.

Couple of hours, baby.

I'm sittin' on the plane.

Let me come pick you up.

How about that?

Actually, I'm not alone.

Um, I have ash with me.

-What? Why?

-I forgot.

I thought we're going out

to dinner so I invited him.

He just broke up

with his boyfriend

and, you know

he's not taking the news

about the baby

quite as well as I had hoped.

And I just, I didn't want him

to have a meltdown or something.

I don't care

if he has a meltdown.

We're gonna be a family now.

You keep putting

that dude before us

you gotta learn to say

no sometimes.

I can, I can say no.

Really, you can say no?

Great, please, say no.

Listen, we can have

a romantic celebration

you know, tomorrow or whatever.

Never mind.

I burnt it anyway.

Go have dinner with Ashley.

I'll see you home.

He didn't like that

very much, did he?

He's fine.

You don't have to lie to me,

he's pissed.

-Whatever, he loves you.

-Here we go.

-Hi.

-Hi. Ginger ale.

-Yes.

-And champagne.

Champagne. Thank you.

-Sure.

-Wonderful.

Here is to, uh

your new ordinary

and pedestrian life.

I hope you're happy.

Here's to you being

a jackass about it.

Hee-haw.

Okay, can I get you

anything else?

This is great for me,

thank you.

Okay. Pardon me.

Hmm.

It's really fast.

Is that normal?

Between 120-170 is average.

So, we're good, right?

That means we're good?

Oh, yeah.

Have you guys thought

of a name yet?

No, not yet.

I wanna call it blueberry.

-For real?

-No, I, yeah, right now.

Actually, she's, uh,

more like a kumquat by now.

Uh, blueberry is,

blueberry is good.

Okay, blueberry it is.

-We did good, huh?

-We did good.

We did do good.

What happened?

Okay, I'll turn on the news.

What happened?

We just received confirmation

that the plane did go down

somewhere in the woods.

We'll have more updates for you

as the story breaks.

Authorities have now confirmed

that the three bodies

found in the wreckage

belonged to the pilot, co-pilot

and Chelsea angel's long-time

manager, Ashley gold.

There's still no sign

of Chelsea angel.

We'll have more for you

as the story breaks.

Sorry.

Can you tell me about my wife?

Well, from the size

of the debris field

it looks like the plane

came down in one piece.

Which means

she came down with it.

If anything happened after that,

well, I don't know.

We did find some tracks

back in the woods

but we lost them

in-in the marsh. Yeah.

I don't even know

if they're hers

to be honest with you.

Anything I can do to help?

You know, just find a place

to sit down and pray.

Ah.

Ah. Ah.

Hey, hey, hey.

Come on, wake up.

-What?

-Hey.

What happened?

We crashed.

-Where are we?

-I don't know.

I don't remember anything.

Someone does not

want us to leave though.

-Help! Help! Help! Help!

-Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey! Hey!

What's your name?

Evelyn, Evelyn king.

Evelyn.

Well, are you okay?

Just a few scratches I think.

What about you?

-My leg.

-Can you walk?

If only I could

get this damn thing off.

It's too tight.

-Help! Help! Help!

-Evelyn, Evelyn, Evelyn.

Evelyn, Evelyn, come here.

We need to figure out

what's going on

and we just need

to be quiet right now, okay.

Who could've done

something like this?

Shh. I don't know.
