Charlie Manson makes a demo.
That is when the budding rock star is the inimitable but much imitated Charles Manson.
Meanwhile, the triangulation around the budding cult songwriter is getting tighter.
Hodiak has the prerequisite gallows humor.
Pistol whip a midget?
He also tackles and roughhouses his old partner, just to keep him on his feet.

The house is full of fear and shame and thats a buzz kill.
There are bigger things howling at Charlie.
