The Rat
At 49:39 · chapter starts 49:00
The episode's central confrontation erupts when Bobby claims Carlos confided in him that Andrew Santino is the more difficult artist on the road. Andrew is stunned. Carlos's denial is immediate and unexpectedly cutting: he says he would never tell Bobby anything personal because Bobby is a known rat — a gossip who immediately shares private information with everyone around him. The accusation lands so squarely that Bobby briefly agrees: 'I'm a gossiper.' Carlos clarifies that he does not disclose difficult truths to Bobby precisely because he knows Bobby will weaponize them on air or relay them to the team. He also suggests that because Andrew is scarier, Carlos redirects any frustration toward the more approachable Bobby — a dynamic Bobby says he has long suspected. The room enters full chaos mode.
Bobby Lee drops a bomb: Carlos (Fancy) apparently told him that Andrew is the really difficult one on tour — not Bobby. Carlos denies it immediately, saying he'd never say that to Bobby because Bobby is 'such a fucking rat' who tells everyone everything. The accusation spirals into competing lies, a live phone call to Bobby's agent, and a potential firing.
Bobby Lee pulls out his phone mid-episode and calls his agent Abby live on air. He announces that Carlos has dragon's breath, smells like an ogre, and hasn't been stocking his rider properly. He concludes: 'This tour is fine, but the next tour I do, he's out.' He then hangs up and announces the agent is fired too.
Bobby Lee turns to McCone (the production assistant) for a nonpartisan verdict: who is scarier to work with, Bobby or Andrew? McCone's answer without hesitation: Andrew. Bobby takes this as vindication that Carlos treats him worse precisely because he's the easier target — not the harder boss.
