I'm stressed.

As is tradition, Hulu premiered its latest series, Pam & Tommy, by delivering three episodes at once. The mini-marathon premiere tactic worked well for the story. It allowed viewers to learn how the infamous tape came to be in the wrong hands and presented the backstory of Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson’s relationship. As the show moves to one episode a week, the Pam & Tommy Episode 4 promo will pick up with the couple discovering they have gone viral.

Warning: Spoilers for Pam & Tommy Episodes 1 through 3 follow. The first three episodes of Pam & Tommy present the couple as a pair of celebrities who were accidentally perfect for each other. Despite their exterior presentations as bombshell blonde and tough-guy rocker, they’re a pair of romantics who are hot for each other — she for the bad boy who’s secretly a softie, he for the career-focused trophy woman. Moreover, they were the kind of people who loved showing off for the cameras, whether it was a public wedding on the beach or making love in the bedroom, bathroom, living room, hotel room, boat, etc.

But they’re also not fools. They know that stuff is private, which is why Tommy kept the videotape of their antics locked in a safe. That worked... until it didn’t. It’s terrible enough Rand took the safe, but now that the tape is out, Tommy is ready to go to the mat over its release.

Pam & Tommy Episode 4 has the pun-tastic title of “The Master Beta” (although the tape is a VHS). The synopsis doesn’t give much away other than what’s in the trailer: “Pam and Tommy resort to increasingly desperate measures to get their property back.”

Lee and Anderson’s marriage had well-documented turbulence, but according to the article the miniseries is based on, in the quest to get the tape off the web, they were united as one. And though the obvious step, a lawsuit, would eventually occur, it wasn’t the couple’s first instinct upon the footage going viral. As Episode 4 suggests, Tommy Lee’s first plan was far more straightforward and a lot more frightening.

Pam & Tommy continues with new episodes streaming on Hulu every Wednesday.
