Meditation, For Violin & Orchestra by Jules Massenet plays.

(Adult Content)

Lacey sees John Henderson drive off with Jackie Kennedy in a golf cart formally driven by JFK. JFK Jr. is in her lap. It’s the 1960’s.

The question is…why…why…is John Henderson taking JFK’s place? Who is John Henderson? Why…is that…JFK is left on a hill watching.

Darlene watches as well but whatever this is supposed to be is a puzzle. Hold on, let me ask God to interpret it.

…

Lem, crying? Is Lem constantly crying?

“Lem, is now a time to cry or to explain?” Michael asks Lem.

“I’ve sided for now with the Rockefeller’s. And my parents just joined.” says Lem.

Silence.

“If you’re confused by this as much as I am, I get it.” Lem says to his possible children.

“Why are you so confused?” Michael asks Lem.

Lem laughs. “No, it’s just…it’s not the plan.”

“What was that plan?” his mother asks him.

“I was supposed to be able to point out to Lacey how much she was the victim not the perpetrator.” says Lem. “But now I have to disown the Kennedy’s twice.” He thinks.

“Hey, here’s a hot tip!! I can conjure Hell based on my interpretation and bullshit based on what I mean for you to say. Dr. Thorsten Moritz of Kings College said so. Your words out of your mouth are mine to interpret. And so your thoughts expressed through your mouth are mine. They’re mine. Your words are mine. And so…you can take your words how I want them to be. I can defile your soul. Because how I interpret things matters more than how you actually meant it.” says Chris. “Or is that middle class is shit from Hell?”

“Middle class is-shit?” asks Lem of Chris.

“Yes. The Clinton crap.” says Chris.

“See…that’s why we trusted Obama.” says a black DFM member. “But turns out…he really is just a black JFK.”

“Why did you have to disown the Kennedy’s twice?!” Lacey asks Lem, hurt.

Dollars and Cents by Radiohead plays.

“Because I felt guilty for taking you from Joe Jr..” says Lem.

In Da Club plays for Joe Jr. and Pat Wilson’s love as theme music in Purgatory.

Thirsten-wannabe watches them, trying to interpret their art. What does a birthday party in 1944 mean? Why does Pat Wilson as a concept of a woman mean in context of World War II? Is it discrimination? Is it vile? Is it beautiful? Is it a joke? Is it a lie?

“I’m watching them like a television show but I’m there?” Thirsten-wannabe asks. “And then I have my own background music?”

“Music I decided on.” says Lacey.

“It works.” says Thirsten-wannabe.

“Anyway, why? Why did you care so much about taking me away from Joe?” Lacey asks Lem.

“I’m not going to fall for that?” Michael asks. “No. I’m not.” Michael scoffs at Joe Jr..

“You’re right, Lacey.” says Lem. “Because you loved him.”

“But certainly there must be lots of other women who could love him?!” Lacey asks.

Greta agrees with Lacey. On a purely scientific level Joe’s obsession with Lacey is almost unnatural.

“I mean you’d think he’d realize that by choosing a different side of the planet he can’t live on the other side of the planet at the same time.” says Lacey, exasperated.

“Yeah.”

…

“Do you want Kings College to change their name?” asks the school’s founders of Thirsten-wannabe.

“No!” he laughs. He agrees to keep watching the Pat Wilson love story. The music back in play would help though. She’ll have to invent a playlist. What fun!! The other agree to help.

36. * Jóhannsson: A Sparrow Alighted upon our Shoulder by Jóhann Jóhannsson (Michael Rockefeller appears to Lacey in a dreamlike state as she’s trying to float on an Irish fishing boat in the ocean towards land. Lem claims to be righteously jealous and angry at Lacey and waiting for her on the shores of Iraq. She’s trying to valiantly use a beat-up sail attached perfectly to the Irish fishing boat to reach shore. Joe Kennedy Sr. is oddly swimming behind her. He’s got a rope secretly attached to his legs pulling his children on a yacht behind him. On the yacht is a party for his whole family. They’re dressed well and in style like the Bluth family from Arrested Development. They’re not sure where Joe Sr. is taking them but he’s their engine, so to speak.

37. * BaDinga by TWRK (when Jack Kennedy, wearing a thong lands on Iraq’s shores and tries to seduce Lem cheered on by Joe Sr. and other Kennedy’s from the yacht still in delusion.

Pt. 2 by MIA (Music is played in the background somewhat muted while Joe Jr. appears on a yacht and decides to explain that he’s at war with art and the scene you just saw was actually him and Lacey not Michael and Lacey. He decides to give the audience a tour of his family’s yacht hinting that the hot sex scene like Jackie gave the press a tour of the White House.)

42. * Gilded Lily by Cults (while Wobbly and Joe Jr. try a black face performance of “Gilded Lily” attempted to be made into a joke to seem charming to the audience on board the Kennedy yacht)

43. * Summer Overture from Requiem For A Dream by Clint Mansell & Kronos Quartet (Lem goes with the British Royal Family to Biafra in the 1960’s to witness the destruction first hand and account for it)

44. * My Old Kentucky Home by Stephen C. Foster (as performed by Wobbly and Joe Sr. in more appropriate clothes on the yacht at night by torch light). * Just A Lil Bit by 50 Cent cuts off My Old Kentucky Home sending them into a silent confusion. Hate Or Love It music video as performed by Wobbly and Joe Jr.. (the video is the exact same but with them and with 50 Cent singing his own song through their mouths and at after 3:26 the show has a pause and a rating disclaimer and is entirely performed by Joe Jr. and himself at various ages.)

45. Pat Wilson appears and thanks everybody for coming to her Mrs. Kennedy Show. She’s interrupted by * Palladio by Karl Jenkins. Credits roll past her but she ignores them. She bows and then leaves. The credits roll to the music.
