Recap

Aniq plans to get everyone in the house to write the word "diarrhea." Whoever's handwriting matches the way it is written on his face is likely the same person who wrote the revenge note.

Yasper offers to go first, but Aniq says it won't work since Yasper knows the plan. Yasper then shows Aniq his phone, which confirms he writes his 'E' in a different style.

Yasper and Aniq overhear the detectives discussing their suspicions of Aniq. Aniq tells Yasper he needs hard evidence. Yasper realizes that there is a hidden security camera in Xavier's room — any footage there will show the true killer and exonerate Aniq.

Under Yasper and Aniq's supervision, Culp and Danner try to pull up the footage. However, the interface is not user-friendly, and they accidentally delete it all. Yasper points out that it's closed-circuit, so there is no backup — it's gone.

Danner decides to keep interviewing. Yasper offers to be questioned next. Danner sits down with Yasper in the recording studio. Yasper starts beatboxing, and his story begins.

Yasper rolls up to the high school is his slick green Audi. Ned, Chelsea, Walt, and others greet him enthusiastically. Yasper does some backflips and runs into Aniq. Aniq is sad about Zoe.

Yasper says it's a second chance for both of them — Aniq will get with Zoe, and Xavier will bless Yasper's track.

Danner asks for clarification on what blessing a track is, and Yasper explains that it's when a big-time star appears on an emerging artist's track. He tells her that he and Xavier had a ska band together in high school — Ska-pe Diem.

In the gym, Yasper sings/raps a song called "Two Shots." Aniq joins in. Walt even starts to rap a verse but gets cut off by Yasper. Everyone in the gym gets with it.

Danner wants Yasper to skip to the part when Aniq gets drunk. Yasper insists on telling the whole thing.

Meanwhile, Aniq walks in on Jennifer #1, who is doing a breathing relaxation exercise. He asks her to write down "I have diarrhea" or "I don't have diarrhea." He starts to explain that it's a game, but she does it just to get rid of him. She also mentions that she conceived her baby in Australia.

Aniq tries to explain the game to Zoe, but she's not into it. Ned is much more enthusiastic and writes down "diarrhea" for Aniq. Zoe gets up and leaves.

Yasper continues. At the reunion, Yasper approaches Xavier, who is sitting with Zoe. Yasper offers to buy Xavier a drink, and they go to the bar. Aniq moves in on Zoe. Xavier and Yasper reminisce about Ska-pe Diem. Zoe and Aniq sneak off. Xavier notices that Zoe is gone.

With increasing desperation, Yasper asks Xavier to bless one of his tracks. Xavier is non-committal until he finally agrees with, "Yeah, sure, whatever."

Yasper sings an upbeat pop song about his dreams coming true — "Yeah Sure Whatever" — with the whole gym once again joining in.

Yasper notices Chelsea writing with lipstick on his car window. Chelsea starts talking incoherently about anger and St. Patrick's day, saying, "He's going to be sorry." Yasper offers to give her a ride to the afterparty, and she responds with, "Yeah, sure, whatever."

Aniq asks Walt to write "diarrhea." Walt is touched that Aniq asked him to play. Aniq sees Zoe and approaches her again. He apologizes for being pushy. She says she's sorry for being rude since everyone thinks he did it. Walt pipes in that everyone does indeed believe that.

Aniq tells Zoe that his game is just a ploy to figure out who killed Xavier, and he explains the graffiti on his neck. Zoe plays his "game," saying that she wrote something else on him, but she won't say what.

Aniq notices "I'm sorry" and a heart written on his hand in Zoe's handwriting. Walt points out that Zoe could have changed her handwriting since she knew the reason for it.

Yasper arrives at the party with Aniq and Chelsea. Aniq and Chelsea leave him. Yasper has texted Xavier asking him to bless his track, but Xavier hasn't responded. Yasper sings a melancholy ballad about waiting for an answer — "Three Dots From Stardom."

During the instrumental, Yasper spots Aniq on the lower balcony staring up at Xavier and Zoe, who are on the upper balcony. Yasper realizes Aniq is very drunk. Brett shoves Aniq into the prawns' X.' Yasper calls up to Xavier, asking about the text, but Xavier doesn't respond.

Yasper sees Xavier and Brett get into an altercation but then goes to help Aniq, who is drinking candles. Yasper finishes his song.

Danner asks Yasper if he saw anything else.

Yasper says that he saw Ned drawing a mustache on Aniq. Yasper goes to Xavier's spare bedroom, gets some pants for Aniq, and walks in on Mr. Shapiro and Quiet Heather having sex.

Yasper puts the pants on top of Aniq, then finally receives a reply text from Xavier, saying track 12 in the WIP folder should work. Yasper walks past Zoe, who raucously shouts, "All for one and fuck 'em all."

Yasper approaches Chelsea, who looks glum. She says she will leave, but he encourages her to take her shot. Chelsea approaches Xavier, and the two of them go upstairs together.

Yasper heads to the recording studio, takes a selfie, and pulls out track 12 in the WIP folder. It's called "How great is this party?"

Yasper explains to Danner that there are four types of songs (Love Song, I'm So Great Song, Issue Songs, and Party Anthems). Yasper used to yell, "How great is this party?" at the beginning of their Ska-pe Diem concerts.

Yasper samples some of the audio from a Ska-pe Diem concert and mixes it into the track. With no sign of Xavier, Yasper puts the Ska-pe Diem concert up on the big screen behind the bar in the main room.

Yasper emerges to find Aniq waking up. Aniq is confused, but he thinks Xavier did this to him. Aniq goes upstairs to talk to Xavier, passing Zoe and Chelsea on his way up. Yasper turns the video off, and they hear Aniq yell from upstairs.

Danner asks to see the texts on Yasper's phone, narrowing down the time of death.

Aniq gets Indigo and Brett to write down "diarrhea." As he approaches Chelsea, he makes a realization.

Yasper insists to Danner that Aniq couldn't have done it, defending his friend as a kind person. He says Chelsea was the last person seen with Xavier.

Aniq finds Jennifer #1. As Danner and Yasper exit the studio, Aniq and Jennifer #1 stop Danner, letting her know that Jennifer #2 is missing and not answering her phone. They say Jennifer #2 was around when Aniq woke up but hasn't been seen since.

Danner tells Culp to search the house again. One of the cops brings in some evidence that was wedged in between the rocks near Xavier's body. It's a flask with an X on it. Chelsea admits that it is hers.
