"When I was a kid, I knew the secret to a happy life." "Play by the rules, work hard in school, and if you work hard in school, then your reward is more school." "And after more school, then you're given the best that life has to offer, a job, and money, and a future, filled with the unending singular pursuit of more." "It's going up a quarter of a point." "Block it now." "And this is what I was living for." "My happy life." "I envied those who never questioned it." "Me?" "I needed a way out." " The usual." " Sure." "I have..." "Here's something that I was hoping that you might..." "You might take a little..." "A look at." " Is there something the matter?" " No." "Your track record is perfect." "And with your stock market luck, we could..." "You could..." "Maybe you should invest more." "No." "Small amounts." "Just keep it simple." "It's just..." "You just..." "How do you do it?" "Sometimes risking everything is the only choice you have." "But you don't seem to be taking any sort of chance." "I wasn't talking about me." "I'm sorry." "You're right."

" Frank's here." "Where?" "What does he want?" "He needs to change your schedule." "Some kind of meeting." "And cameras rolling!" "So, Trista, thank you for sitting down with me today." "Oh, for you, anything." "So, your debut album, it heralds you as this fantastic new talent." "Is there pressure to try to live up to the hype?" "It's not hype." "You know, I'm not just a pretty face." "I have something to say." "I'm just so excited that my fans want to hear it." "Okay, but what is it about you that sets you apart from all the other acts that are out there today?" "I think it's my musical influences." " You know, if you go back..." " Okay, what I mean, you're young, you're pretty, you sing, you dance." "Why should we care, right?" "I mean, what is it about you that's so special?" " What makes me special?" " Yeah." " Nothing." " Nothing?" "Do you mean, like, what makes me better than everyone else?" "No." "Not better." "Just..." "Deserving." "Deserving." "Um..." "Well, I..." " What is he doing?" " I have a really rare blood type." "Don't worry." " How about that?" " What is he doing?" "It's okay." "She's doing fine." "It's called Kp A-B." "Almost no one has it." "That's my gift from God." "Well, that, and I sing and dance well enough to have millions of fans." "Uh-oh." "It's more like hundreds of thousands." "Right?" "Whatever." "Doesn't make a difference." "I have fans that chant my name wherever I go." "Come on, Trista, I mean..." "They're not even chanting your real name, right?" "What?" "I mean, can't you at least tell us your real name?" "I'll never tell." "How about my name?" "We've met like this now three times, three different interviews." "You say you'll do anything for me." "What's my name?" " We're done." "We're done." "We're done!" " Wait, wait." "What, what?" "Take it easy." "What's the problem?" "What did I do?" "You." "Danny." "Danny." "That son of a bitch is going to be wiping asses for a living by the time I'm through with him." "Just take me home." "We can't leave yet." "We have a meeting." "Are you kidding me?" "Don't worry." "It's right on stage 10." "It'll be fast." "Okay, now, flash Papa Fingers those beautiful blue eyes." "Randall's got nothing on you, kid." "Fingers!" "What do you think?" "Living the dream, huh?" "You ruined my shot, Frank." "It's a pleasure meeting you." "Fingers." "It's cute." "I guess I'm supposed to ask why they call you that?" "I guess it's because when I talk, I use my hands a lot." "Sorry." " You're Trista, right?" " Yeah." "Now that we're friends, let's get down to business." "Sure." "Trista, things are going great." "Single's getting play, the album's starting to sell, the video is getting a lot of air time, but there's a big difference between having a video on MTV and being an artist who headlines arenas." "What Frank is trying to say is that you need someone to take you to the next level." "Someone who's going to open doors." "Someone who's strong." " You're quitting?" " No." "No." "I'm not quitting." "I'm not..." "I'm stepping aside." "A person of his influence can make you a superstar." "He asks for things, and people give them." "Gladly." "I'm so excited to be working with you, and completely committed to your success." "And all I ask is you commit to me." "And that's our deal." "That's our promise that we make to each other." "If anybody gets in our way," " I'll take care of it." " I don't fucking believe this." " Get me a car." " Trista, baby..." "Oh, screw you, Frank!" "That didn't go so well." "It went fine." "Tomorrow, we get to go shopping for a new manager." "Trista, there are contracts." "Fuck contracts!" "I think I should go." "Can you stay with her?" "Sure." "Be back tomorrow." " I'm tired." " Yeah." " Do you love me, Danny?" " Course I do." "I love you, too." "Leave the light on, Daddy." "I don't like the dark." "Daddy." "My little girl's not nervous, is she, huh?" "Come on." "Don't worry." "After school, I'll be right here waiting for you, okay?" "Come on, let's go." "Daddy?" "Danny!" "Danny?" "Your friends are not going to help you." "Nobody's going to help you." "Nobody but me." "Your manager has drained all your accounts trying to pay me back." "And that little piece of paper that owns you is the only thing that's keeping his ass alive." "Now, what does that mean?" "It means that you..." "You have nothing." "And you are nothing unless I say you are." "And you are going on the road." "And you're staying on the road until I see profit." "And if I ever have to come back here again, we're going to have a totally different conversation." "You understand me?" "Cheers." "Thanks." " Don't you think you've had enough?" " No." "I don't think it's nearly enough." "It can't be as bad as you think." "You must get tired of not knowing what the fuck you're talking about." "Where were you anyway when Frank was fucking me over?" "Were you in on it?" "Did you help him?" "No." "Of course not." "I'm your friend." "I can't remember." "How much does being my friend pay again?" "Allison, wait..." "Wait, wait!" "Hey, who's paying for the drinks?" "I didn't mean it." "Come on!" "I'm sorry." " Trista!" " Trista!" "Oh, my God!" "Trista!" "Allison!" "Allison!" "Wait!" "God damn it!" "Come on!" "Oh, come on." "I'm sorry." " Are you Trista?" " What?" " Are you Trista?" " No." " Yes, you are." " No, no, no." " Hey, can I have an autograph?" " Sure." " To Jake the hottie." " Yeah, sure." "Cute." " Trista, my sister loves you!" " I love your sister." " You looked great in your last movie." " Thank you." "Thanks." " You were the best, too." " Thank you." " Trista!" "Trista!" " Stop!" "God, that fucking hurts." "Hey, how about a picture?" " Get a picture of this." " No!" "Stop!" "I love you, Trista!" "We love you!" " So, I can leave?" " Of course." "What are you going to do?" "Where you gonna go?" "I don't know." "I mean, I have shows coming up." "Fingers owns you now." "He'll work you until you're used up, and throw you away." "It's just what he does." "What are you suggesting I do?" "Well, if Fingers knows that you've run, then he'll hunt you down." "But, you know, the one place that he won't look is..." "Is right here." "I could get some money together, and you could..." "You could get far enough away that not even Fingers could touch you." "Why are you helping me?" "I don't know." "I just want to." "For as long as I can remember," "I've never let myself want anything." "Stay away from the windows, and, you know, help yourself to anything in the kitchen." "Otherwise, don't touch anything." "You okay?" "Yeah." "I'm fine." "It's just..." "Just work." "What did you do today?" "I looked for you." "I like what you've done with the place." "I figured if I was going to be here for a while..." "Who's that in the picture with you?" "It's Markie." " Are you guys close?" " Oh, yeah." "Yeah." "We were." "He's..." "He died." " I'm sorry." " That's all right." "What happened?" "I saw it coming," "and couldn't do anything to stop it." "I know how that feels." "Makes you feel like you never want to feel anything ever again." " There." " That's good." "It's just what I need." "More scars." "Did you know that scars are the road map to the soul?" "Yes." "It's been a couple weeks, and I was thinking that maybe we could take a trip." "Tomorrow?" " You mean we're leaving?" " Yeah." "What's in your hand?" "That's nothing." "It's just something I think I saw." " It's not what you think, really." " What do you have to do?" "Don't worry about it." "It's for a friend." " Hello?" " FINGERS. ;" "Who is this?" "Piece of shit!" "Three weeks we've been looking for this tart." "Three weeks!" "Asking around, busting heads, you by my side, and all this time, she was sitting right here with you!" "You'd think when that scumbag Frank begged for death, you would have shown some mercy on the poor bastard, and told me the truth, but no!" "You just stood there and watched." "You're a cold piece of work, my friend." "A cold piece of fucking work." "Oh." "What's this?" "You putting some aside, take your little lady on vacation?" "Huh?" "Is that yours?" "I don't think so!" "Leave me alone." "Go." "What's the matter with you?" "Back in the day, you would have saw this coming." "You're losing your touch." "Did you say something to me?" "You trying to say something to me?" "You put me in this situation!" "You think I'm a bad man?" "I'm talking to you." "I'm not a bad man." "I want what everybody wants." "I tried to give you everything." "And what happened?" "What did you do with it?" "But that wasn't enough for you!" "It wasn't enough!" "You wanted more." "You have all the love in the world, but that's not enough for you, so you took my friend!" "And you turned him against me!" "And then what?" "You're a selfish little shit!" "I guess..." "You don't know what you got until it's gone." "Oh, my God." "Tell me." "Tell you what?" "Your real name." " Hi." " Gate's closed." " No." " You gotta go around the front." "You gotta let me in." " No." "Cool it." " Please, please." "No, you don't understand." " I'm a doctor." " You gotta go around front." "Someone..." "Someone is going to die." "I've got to see Trista." "This is the last time I'm going to tell you." "Cool it!" "I got to see Trista!" "Come on, come on, man!" "I'm a doctor!" "All right, she is going to fucking die, and it's going to be your fault!" "LO VE. ;" "Everyone has a purpose." "Sometimes a person lives their entire life without knowing what theirs is." "Not me." "I knew when I was 10." "My purpose is to love the right person wholly and completely." "When I was 10, that person was Heidi Fontel." "But when Heidi's father moved her family away," "I was sure I would love again, and soon." "I was wrong." "I met Gina in med school." "We were best friends." "My roommate, Henry, said she was the kind of girl you waited to marry." "But I waited too long." "She married Henry right out of college." "And I was best man." "And all these years later, I guess I still am." "So, where were we?" "Henry was trying to make a point." "Henry's trying..." "He's trying to make a point." " About you joining him in plastics?" " What else?" "Bob is rich." "That's not right." "And Derek." "Derek barely graduated, and Derek is rich as shit!" "It's not all about the money." "Hey, you put in the time, you do the work, you ought to be compensated." " I'm doing fine." " A lot of folks are doing fine." "She's doing fine." "Oh, that's right." "She's the waitress." "Everyone else I know?" " Rich as shit!" " I'm not." "But you're doing genius research which one day will lead to an amazing discovery." " Maybe." " And that will lead to patents, and now we're talking stupid rich." "There's nothing wrong with her trying to make people's lives better." "No." "It's fantastic." "I love her for it." "I make people's lives better." "I do." "Come on." "Okay, I admit it." "The boob jobs and the Botox, that's what pays for my amazing car." "Okay, but consider this." "A girl is born with a nose that could kill on sight." "There's no prom day for this girl, no shy first kiss." "She gets in an accident, sure, you patch her up fine." "But eventually, this girl's going to write a goodbye letter to her cat, and throw herself off a rooftop." "The same girl, she comes to me," "I do a little of my magic, and, my friend, that letter never gets written." "I have saved a life." "Hey, I saved a life today." "Maybe I did, too." "We'll never know." "But either way, I'm going to sleep tonight in one big motherfucking house." "I gotta pee." " My husband." " Your husband." " So, how are the snakes?" " They're great." "My hours are killing me, though." "You feeling all right?" "I'm exhausted." "Been fighting a cold, too." " You should come see me tomorrow." " I don't want to bother you." "That's impossible." "You know that, right?" "Take care." "Jesus." "Think about what I said." "Oh, man, thank you." "Are you this way?" " No, I'm actually parked out back." " I'm sorry." " You're going to be okay?" " Yeah, I'm used to this." " Love you." " Love you, too." "Bring me the vial." "All right." "Yeah." "Here we go." "You're going to cure hemophilia, little guy." "Dr. Sweet?" "Mmm-hmm." "This isn't a rattler." "Maybe you want to break out the gear." "Don't worry." " What do we got?" " Snake bite." "Let me take a look." "Oh, my God." "They sent us the wrong anti-venom!" " She needs a transfusion now!" " Gina?" "Hey, Gina." "Gina." "Can you hear me?" "Gina, hi." "Hi." " Come on, wake up now." " My blood..." "What?" " What did she say?" " I'm not sure." "Something about her blood." "Get her blood type." "What bit her?" " A Russell viper." " All right, tell me about this snake." "You don't understand." "It's already in her heart." "She needs a transfusion." " Get me that blood type now!" " She's got 24 hours!" " Okay." " Doctor, I have her blood type." "What?" "What the hell is this?" " The lab said it's extremely rare." " All right." "Do we have any of this in stock?" " I've never even seen it come through here." " All right." "Check again." " No, Doctor..." " Just do it!" "Henry?" "Henry?" "Did Gina keep any of her own blood in storage?" "All right, look." "Listen, she's..." "She's been bitten." "Hello!" "Can you check again, please?" "It's very rare." "Next week is too late." "Thailand?" "Please don't put me on hold." "Please don't put me on hold." "Please..." "Damn!" "We don't have it, Doctor." "I checked the computer files, but it's useless!" "It's not in there." "We don't have her blood type!" "Doctor!" "Stop it, Doctor!" "We don't have the blood type." "That's why..." "Nick!" " Damn it!" " Wait!" "What are you doing?" "No, no, no." "Wait, wait." "You don't understand." "You've got to let me go!" "You don't understand!" "She's going to die!" "All right." "All right, all right!" "All right!" "I'm fine." "I'm all right." "Just let me go." "Let me go." "Okay, I'm fine." "I'm all right." "I'm here live inside Palm Hill Studios, where Trista has begun production on her second music video." "Now, we're not allowed to take you inside the actual shooting, but while we're waiting, why don't we take another look at a clip from a recent interview that had everybody wondering," ""Pop superstar or pop meltdown?"" " What makes me special?" " Yeah." " Nothing." " Nothing?" "Do you mean, like, what makes me better than everyone else?" "No." "Not better." "Just..." "Deserving." "Deserving." "I have a really rare blood type." "How about that?" "A blood type?" "Yeah, it's called Kp A-B." "Almost no one has it." "That's my gift from God." "Okay, I talked to the director." "I told him no more than two full run-throughs of the song." "Thank you." " Are you okay?" " Yeah." "You need some air?" " No, I think I can..." " I think you need some air." "Could everyone please back off?" "She needs air!" "Let's go, honey." "I mean it!" "Back off!" "Let's go." " Put this on." " What's going on?" "Your plane ticket and passport are in the pocket." " Hi." " Gate's closed." " No." " You gotta go around the front." "You gotta let me in." " No." " Wait, I..." "I'm a doctor." "Don't call anyone." "Just lay low for a little while." "Give me some time, and I'll make sure that someone gets to you." "I'm a doctor!" "All right, she is going to fucking die, and it's going to be your fault!" "She's going to fucking die!" "Trista?" " Trista, wait!" "Wait!" " No, no, don't get near her!" "Get in!" " No, no, Gina..." " No!" " Let go of Allison!" "Help!" " Sorry, I'll explain later!" "Trista!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Trista?" "My God, Trista?" "Trista." "Trista, are you okay?" "Oh, God!" "Trista." "Trista?" "I pushed back your concert dates and canceled your video shoot." "And I'm not mad at you." "Even though I know you tried to leave." "But I'm not mad at you." "When were you going to tell me?" " Tell you what?" " About the baby." " I'm pregnant?" " Three weeks." "You didn't know?" "It's gonna be okay." "I know what you're trying to do." "You want the whole world to love you, and that's a dangerous fucking life." "And you can't do it alone." "But I'm gonna take care of you." "I'm gonna make that happen." "All your dreams will come true." "And to put that aside would mean that he died for no reason." "It would mean you killed him for no reason." "No." "We have a deal." "He got in the way." "And I did my part." "Now it's time for you to do your part." "We both lost someone special." "Now it's time to move on." "I hate you." "Until the day I die, I will hate you." "You can't keep the baby." " What?" " You got concert dates and TV appearances." "You can't keep the baby." " It's my baby." " No one gets in our way!" "No one!" "You got a concert date in two weeks." "Gives us plenty of time to take care of this." "I'm gonna make the arrangements." "Wait, wait, wait." "Wait." "No, no." "No." "Stop!" "Stop!" "You're going to have to reach for me." "Please." "I need you." "Please." " Hi." " Hey." "Hey." "So, you saved a life today." "You, too." "It's funny." "It's the only thing that matters." "All the rest of it..." "I'm glad your baby's okay." "Me, too." " Thanks for the loaner." " Sure." " I'll get it back to you as soon as I can." " Whatever." "You okay?" "Yeah." "I will be." "It's hard starting over." "You'll be fine." "So will you." "Thank you." "I'm sorry, sir, but you can't go in there." "Sir!" "Sir, you're not allowed!" "Dude, that was crazy!" "Are you okay?" "Are you okay?"
