[Baby Keem] I promised I would die for you.
You remember, right?
[♪ "Unlucky" performed by Kan Wakan]
[Jade] I've heard so much about it.
You talk about it all the time.
I wanna go there.
Inside your mind.

[Baby Keem] My momma used to say,
"When it rains, God is crying for us all."
Hadn't rained this hard since my homie East passed away.
This storm felt no different.
-Hey. -Hey.
-Thanks for meeting me. -Yeah. You sounded worried.
I need to talk to you about the Melodic Blue.
Keem hasn't been the same since he went down there.
You said everything was fine.
It's not.
How long this been going on?
Six months.
I found some wet clothes hidden in his trunk.
And then I started noticing that his hands were wrinkly and soft
like they'd been underwater for a long time.
That sounds like East before he disappeared.
Keem said "Alexa" in his sleep the other night.
[chuckles] Alexa Blue.
Fuck that bitch.
She's a god down there.
One of the unique ones.
They trick the men to not come up to the surface.
I need to know why he keeps going down there.
Shit. I know why he keep going down there.
Girl, if you don't fucking expound.
Like, you can get pussy surface level.
What's the difference?
Okay.
It's a place where all human sensitivities are heightened.
You feel more, you touch more, you taste more.
All the other human senses are blocked.
Dick is different down there.
Lust feels like love.
And you and East met down there.
Yeah.
East saved me.
All I wanted was to be loved down there.
He took me back to the surface level.
Did you feel loved down there?
That's all I felt down there.
[Baby Keem] We all have our patterns.
Mom, we're neglecting your needs.
I want to blame the way I grew up.
Abandonment issues, relationship with my mother...
I can think of every excuse in the book.
But I don't play victim.
I knew what I was doing.
[wood creaks under footsteps]
[♪ "Trademark USA" performed by Rosalía]
East would bring me down here every Thursday night.
But then I started doubling back on my own.
This place felt surreal.
An escape from reality.

[Baby Keem] East said, "Never let these hoes get the best of you."
Told myself I was smarter than that.
He put me up on one rule.
Gotta know when to leave.
He was always bad at following his own advice.
The funny thing about addiction...
the ones that love you the most can always see what you're hiding.
[Jade] What are you doing?
Why do you love that place more than me?
I don't.
Then what is it?
East.
East!
East is dead, Keem.
That place killed him.
You promised you would die for me.
You know I will.
Do it, then.

Welcome to the Melodic Blue, where lust is greater than love.
Now, let's make this quick so I can get back on these uniques.
I got one hour left.
There's one rule down here.
Get your nut, then bounce back to the surface.
Don't let these bitches trick you out of your last breath.
He's definitely on his last 15.
Hey, who dat?
[East] That's Alexa Blue.
Stay the fuck away from her.
The bitch got bodies, my nigga.
Soulless... just how I like them. [chuckles]
[speaking French]
[East] No, Alexa, he's not ready.
[East] I'll be back.
Nigga, you just told me not to fuck with her.
What, nobody ever tell you not to do something they did?
I'll be back in a minute.

We just hurt whoever's there.
I wanna say I didn't know what I was doing, but I did.
I was pushing you.
Pushing you away.
Pushed you past your limit.
I promised I would die for you.
Maybe that's just a toxic form of love these days.
[film projector whirs, beeps]
[woman speaking French]
[speaking French]
Alexa, I can't do this anymore.
I want to understand why East would give his life for this.
I don't want to lose myself down here.
Or my girl up there.
