We're sisters and we're

supposed to help each other.

You helped me with the music video, so I helped

you overcome your crippling online shyness

and boom, win-win.

And you're wearing the necklace I designed.

36,000 freakin' people

just saw my necklace.

- Can you please link that to my Etsy account?

- Yeah, what's your log-in?

J, don't worry. The video's

public, but my account's private.

So nobody knows who

uploaded it or who's in it.

All they know is that she calls herself

Jem, and they seriously like her.

Actually, they love her!

Except that guy. And that one. Scroll down.

Ooh, that guy really doesn't like her.

Oh, my God! I'm not letting

you be upset about this.

You're Internet famous. That's the second

best thing to being actually famous.

Jerrica, she does have a point. You're

getting hits like water-skiing squirrel.

- I love water-skiing squirrel!

- Yes! He's so cute.

When they first put him on the thing

and then he just balances on the water.

- He doesn't even fall off. I can't even do that.

- Like, so badly. So badly.

You're way more than

water-skiing squirrel.

J, you can't be upset about this.

This doesn't happen every day.

The Erica Raymond just direct-messaged us.

I always knew you'd go viral.

- That just sounds gross.

- You're gonna be famous!

There you go.

The version of me that they want

doesn't... It doesn't exist, Aunt Bailey.

If I go on stage, they're

not gonna see this... Jem.

They're gonna see this small-town wannabe

who writes songs to sing in her shower.

I think you're absolutely right.

You are no rock star.

Right. Yeah. No, that's

exactly what I'm saying.

I think you have the potential to

become something so much greater.

Aunt Bailey, just...

please, just listen, okay?

No, you listen.

There are some ideas,

some voices that are too

special to keep hidden.

Those are your father's words.

You know, when we were growing up here

in this house, our lives were here.

But your dad was always talking

about what was out there.

And as soon as he was old enough,

he went out to make it happen.

I think you're more like your dad.

Maybe your life is out there.

It's just that I know that this could

really help with the

family and the house and...

This is not about the house.

Okay, this is about you

not going your whole life

wondering what would have happened

if you had taken that chance.

Besides, when was the last time

you had the chance to go back to LA?

Hmm?

Think about it. Okay?

Yeah!

- Morning.

- Good morning.

You with the band?

Something like that.

Zipper.

No, my name is Zipper, ma'am.

- Oh!

- You'll have to forgive my associate.

He's terrible at first impressions.
