Azealia Banks posted more screenshots. Let's unpack this mess.

Welcome to another chapter in the bizarre saga of Azealia Banks/Grimes/Elon Musk!

Azealia Banks — who claims she was abandoned by Grimes and trapped in Elon Musk's mansion while he tripped acid — has been dropping juicy screenshots hinting at the unfolding drama in her Instagram stories.

On Tuesday, Banks posted a screenshot of a conversation between her and an unnamed source. She circled a text that said, "I made you look really good today. The attorneys like you and said you're smart." 

The texts also discuss "damages that Claire caused" — Claire is Grimes' birth name. 

In another screenshot posted to Azealia Banks' story, a person alleged to be Grimes says that "he" (Musk) "got into weed" because of her influence and that when he decided to take Tesla private, the stock would be worth $419 each. 

"So he rounded up to 420 for a laugh and now the sec is investigating him for fraud," Grimes texted.

Banks circled those texts and called Grimes "a pathological liar." 

Lost in all the messiness of this situation? Here's a timeline of this wild ride:

Jul. 30: Grimes announced that she was working with Azealia Banks on her next album. 

well i’ve started like 4 beats for her now lol she has to come to la to finish

Aug. 7: Musk says he was taking Tesla private, and then got turned into a meme. 

Am considering taking Tesla private at $420. Funding secured.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 7, 2018

Aug. 10: Banks arrives at Elon Musk's mansion in L.A. 

In an Instagram DM, she later told Business Insider that Musk was "scrounging for investors to cover his ass after that tweet" and that he wasn't cute in person. 

Also, Musk and Grimes left for DefCon together, leaving Banks in his house.  

Great Q&A @defcon last night. Thanks for helping make Tesla & SpaceX more secure! Planning to open-source Tesla vehicle security software for free use by other car makers. Extremely important to a safe self-driving future for all.

Aug. 12: Apparently Banks gets trapped in Musk's house, and things start getting weird. 

Buckle up everyone, THIS is where it gets fun! That Sunday night, Banks compared staying in the Musk mansion to the real-life version of Get Out, and then exposed Musk for "being too stupid to know not to go on Twitter while on acid." 

She also claimed that she wasn't allowed to bring her boyfriend with her, and said "it was probably some weird threesome sex shit to begin with." 

According to Business Insider, she left that night.

Aug. 13: Musk clarifies his now-memed "funding secured." Also, Banks has more to say.

Apparently Saudi Arabia is going to help Tesla go private, according to a note on the company's website. 

Azealia Banks, meanwhile, continued her rant about her weekend at Elon's on another Instagram story. She said that Musk was "better off hiring an escort" because Grimes can't keep quiet about the business. 

While dragging both Grimes and Elon Musk through personal attacks and going off on a diatribe about the colonization of South Africa, Banks also hinted at Grimes spilling secrets. 

Musk, meanwhile, told Gizmodo he didn't know Banks and that he "has never even met [Banks] or communicated with her in any way.”

But Banks sent Business Insider an alleged screenshot of a conversation between her and Mac Boucher, Claire's brother, that said, "Elon will meet with you tonight." 

Three days later, Elon admitted to seeing Banks "for two seconds" in a New York Times interview.

Just when you think it doesn't get crazier than Elon vs. the shorts, you find out about the Azealia Banks Vs. Grimes/Elon craziness and realize THERE COULD BE SO MANY MORE LEVELS OF CRAZY TO GO.$TSLA pic.twitter.com/A5YEqwXbP1

Aug. 18: Banks posts more screenshots and now we know too much about Musk's genitalia. 

Banks, our screenshot queen, posted more receipts on her Instagram story. "Elon Musk has been tapping my phone all week," she claimed, posting screenshots of texts allegedly between her and Grimes from before their meeting.

In the texts, Grimes roasts Musk for his "weird accent that doesn't actually exist," but brags about his "giant dick." 

Let's also just appreciate Banks calling Musk a "wild thornberry." 

Basically, though, the screenshots seem to show that Musk at least knew Banks was planning on a visit.

Aug. 19: Grimes and Musk stop following each other.

The internet's most confusing couple stopped following each other on Instagram, and Musk unfollowed Grimes on Twitter. Considering Musk's bizarre Twitter presence, this could mean nothing. Right? 

Aug. 20: Musk deletes his Instagram and Banks says he has her phone. 

Musk told Gizmodo that he deleted his Instagram account because he didn't "like it." 

The same day, Banks called him out on her infamous Instagram story, begging for her phone back. This is where it gets even spicier — in deleted story videos, she complains about how she wants to go home and says "none of this shit has anything to fucking do with me." 

"Honestly, what the fuck is even going on," she asks in one of the videos. "What the actual fuck is going on?" 

Self-proclaimed "Teslaqologist" and "founder of the Canadian Institute of Cultural Teslaqology" @ravenvanderrave tweeted screen recordings of the videos. You can check out the full thread here.

Aug. 21: More screenshots, and now attorneys are involved?

Banks posted more screenshots on her story that alluded to "damages that Claire caused." She also said on her story that she was finally leaving Los Angeles, sans phone, and that she couldn't "stay here for anymore of this shit." 

"If you knew that you couldn't work ... you should have just told me to stay my ass home," she ranted on her story. Banks also pointed out that Musk "sent that first tweet" before she even got on her flight, and that she could have easily stayed.

Twitter users, meanwhile, wonder what the heck Banks could have had on her phone. 

Maybe video of an acid fest? Sky's the limit with this bunch.

Others want to employ her to do the same thing to the presidential administration.

Whatever's going on, it appears that Banks somehow got in the middle of an SEC investigation, and is not happy about it. 

At least she gave us the wild summer story we didn't even know we needed!
