Post by bunniefuu »

No one wants to hear your voice.

Previously on Daisy Jones and The Six...

[CHUCK] Your brother?

Billy Dunne is gonna be in this band?

Stop. Stop. Stop.

Why don't you, uh,
show us how it's done?

[DAISY] I just didn't want
to be that girl anymore.

[BILLY] We're The Dunne Brothers.

For now.

[BILLY] You give me your number,

- I'll write you a song.
- Wow.

Does that line ever work?

[SIMONE] Question is, what
are you doing in the crowd

and not on that stage
where you want to be?

- [GRAHAM] Hey, you sounded great up there.
- Thanks, man.

- I'm Graham.
- Karen.

[ROD] California, my friend,
that is the place you got to be.

You want to be signed to
a label? You want to work

- with Teddy Price.
- You know Teddy Price?

I'm not the muse, okay?

I'm the somebody.

Oh, here he is.

Hey, that's him. That's him.

Rod, hey.

Uh, it's, uh, Billy Dunne

and the, uh... The Dunne Brothers.

We met at The Staircase
in Pittsburgh, you know?

You said I could call.

[WOMAN] All right. Thank you!

But you didn't call.

You're just... here.

Um, could we have...

uh, ten minutes of your time?

[DISTANT CHATTER]

[BILLY] Obviously,

- we, uh... we need gigs.
- [EDDIE] Yeah, on the Strip,

- if possible.
- The Whisky, the Troubadour.

Yeah, and... and-and a place to stay.

Yeah, I mean, we pooled
our savings together,

- but it's not much.
- We're probably gonna need some money.

I mean, just to get us
off the ground, you know?

[BILLY] And, uh, Teddy
Price to produce us.

- That's-that's, uh...
- That would be huge.

It's really important.

Sure. Yeah, man.

Anything else?

- Uh, I think that's...
- Pretty much.

- That's all, yeah.
- [LAUGHTER]

That was all we came up with.

Are you a bunch of f*cking idiots?

Do you really think
that's how this works?

You show up in town and someone
hands you a key to the city?

- A sit-down with Teddy Price?
- [BILLY] You said...

You know, when we were back
in Pittsburgh, you said...

I'm a tour manager, not a band manager.

So, unless you guys are planning
a world tour in the near future,

I don't think I'm your guy, man.

We're not asking for handouts.

- We'll work our asses off, man.
- Listen to me.

You seem like nice people, and...

if you're the band I'm thinking of...

... your set was kind of tight.

- [CHUCKLES]
- So what I'm gonna do is,

I'll make a call, one call,
to my guy over at Filthy's.

Filthy's? Is-is that a club?

It's more of a... bar than a rock club,

- but it's on the Strip.
- Man, look, that's... that's amazing.

- Sweet.
- Thank you.

And that's all I can do.

- Right on. It's a great start.
- Thank you.

I mean, that's-that's
more than we can ask for.

Now, if there's nothing else...

- Yes, sir.
- Mm-hmm.

Yes.

- Thank you. Thank you for your time.
- Thanks, man.

Okay.

Uh, oh, there is just,
um, one more thing.

Um...

So, I mean, uh, you know, the
thing is, I mean, all of us,

we're, uh... we're really impressed.

Um, you know, not just me, and, uh,

maybe now is a good time
to... you know, for a...

change of scenery or a...

I didn't ask her.

Karen, this is Billy Dunne.

Hi...

Billy Dunne.

Hi. Look, uh, how would you like

to be in the band?

Guys, it's burning.

[SIZZLING]

Guys, it's burning!

[KAREN SIGHS]

Sorry.

Minor kitchen emergency.

[LAUGHING] It's okay.

What were you saying?

Uh, well, I was just saying,

the, uh... The Dunne Brothers would love

to have you join our band.

In Pittsburgh?

No, actually. We're in L.A.

We have some gigs lined up on the Strip.

We're renting a house.

In Laurel Canyon. Tell her
that it's in Laurel Canyon.

- Shh.
- Stop.

So, what do you say, Karen?

You want to be in the
best band in the world?

You-you-you... you just
broke into my house like that?

Like, Jesus Christ!

I didn't break in. I used the key

- sticking out of the flower pot.
- Don't do that ever, ever again!

I'm sorry. I brought wine.

The least you could do.

[SIGHS]

- Oh, my God.
- Here you go.

- You f*cking scared me.
- Wine.

- Mmm.
- Okay.

What are you cooking
that's, like, so important

- you just had to break in?
- Smells good, doesn't it?

Smells like you want
to smell it forever,

every night...

in your apartment cooked by me.

You left home?

I can't stay with them anymore.

And you did say you were
looking for a roommate.

- Yeah, to help with rent.
- I can help with rent.

- You can?
- Yeah.

With what money?

- I'll get a job.
- Oh. Okay.

Well... not as a cook, you won't.

Jesus, that is bad.

- Ooh. It is pretty bad.

[BOTH LAUGH]

[CAMILA] They say it takes

really just that simple.

So that first house,

it wasn't perfect, but we made it work.

Didn't matter to us that
it smelled like wet clothes

or that an old lady had
d*ed in it the week before.

We got it cheap, we got it fast, and

we got to live in Laurel Canyon.

You already know that. I

How many in a row is it, Teddy?

Six, seven straight?

Six.

Six in a row that didn't work.

Uh, they did work.
They just didn't sell.

They have to sell, Teddy. How do
you think we keep the lights on?

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[EDDIE] What happened with
that producer you went up to?

- The one with the parrot?
- Parrot guy passed on us.

Wow.

That is bleak.

Might want to save half that
toast for tomorrow, Eddie.

This is barely enough to cover the rent.

f*ck.

[MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY]

f*ck it, man. Maybe... maybe
old Chuckie was right, huh?

Maybe... maybe this was
all just a big mistake

and that we should have just
stayed at home with our moms,

saved money on rent, become dentists.

I mean, I've sent out
hundreds of photographs,

and not a single f*cking
paper has responded.

I mean, should I just quit?

No one said it was gonna be easy.

[WARREN] Also, while
we're talking about stuff,

how come I'm the only one
without a bed in the house?

Well, you could've taken Karen's room.

No, I couldn't have.
That room is haunted.

- It's not haunted.
- [OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

And I'm getting pocket toast, so...

Why are we still called
The Dunne Brothers?

I mean, three of us aren't Dunnes,

and the last time I checked,
I'm nobody's brother.

So you want to change our name?

I personally think that's a great idea.

I'm just saying what
everybody's thinking.

Well, the name is the name, so...

- That's how people know us.
- [EDDIE] Yeah,

but it's not exactly
doing much for us, though.

How about Immaculate Reception?

- No, that is awful.
- We're not changing the name.

I mean, listen, if we're
throwing stuff out there,

Hercules is still on the table.

- No!
- Stop it!

- [OVERLAPPING CHATTER]
- [KAREN] Let it go.

Deliverance, Espionage, Poison.

The six of us will
never agree on a name.

All right? So let's just...

What about The Six?

But there's five of us, you know.

Well, won't people get confused?

- Well, we can't be The Five.
- Why?

'Cause The Dave Clark
Five, 'cause The Jackson .

- Everybody's The Five.
- I like The Six.

Sure as hell better than Hercules.

[CAMILA LAUGHS]

You two should talk.

Ellemar Records.

- You interested?
- In what exactly?

Working on some music together.

Well, I don't know.

What do I need you for?

Uh, well...

I just like what I heard.

And, uh, I think, with
a little bit of my help,

I could take you to the next step.

- All you need is some shaping, and you could...
- Shaping?

Yeah. I mean, I'm saying...

Look, you're new, right?

And nobody is all the way
there their first time out.

I don't think I want to be shaped.

But it was nice to meet you.

Sure did.

is the best way to see who they are.

Thanks.

Uh, Mr. Price?

I, uh, I-I love Blue Elsewhere.

Oh, not a lot of people know that one.

Thank you very much.

Uh, my name's Billy Dunne.

You and Memphis Marlon were the reason

I picked up the guitar.

I-I'm sorry, I just...
I think you're a genius.

- Billy? Is that your name?
- Yes, sir.

You're making me uncomfortable.

- I'm in a band.
- And there it is.

Is there any chance we
could play for you sometime?

You know, just-just one song.

I...

I don't have a... I'm sorry.

Okay.

Please?

You don't want me, kid.

Call Lou Adler.

I just don't make that kind of music.

Mr. Price, look, look.

If I were you and some kid
came up to me in a market

and asked me to listen to his band,

I'd say, "Thanks, but no
thanks," just like you are.

But I'd be making a big mistake.

You know you only get
one chance at this.

Yes, sir.

Are you ready?

Absolutely.

- and it wasn't always music that they were interested in.
- No?

wasn't % clear with you

at the Troubadour.

Did you want to order something?

I mean, you got some
great beginnings to 'em,

yeah, of course, but I'm always in

the same place at the end

- as I am at the start.
- I see.

You just don't take me anywhere.

Well, maybe you don't know
how to listen to 'em right.

Did you think about that?

Maybe I don't want my
songs to fit in a box

with a bow on it, Teddy.

Yeah, well...

- What's that for?
