Nashville s03e05 Episode Script
Road Happy
Previously on "Nashville" She was my first love.
The reason I came by was to ask why I left Texas without saying anything? I'm gay.
My next record is gonna go gold, or your little cash cow of a cowboy is gonna be outed by his wife.
I just signed with Rayna Jaymes and Highway 65! Everyone is fair game.
I need to know if I can sign a couple of kids to the label with only one parent's consent.
You're just gonna hide the fact that you're pregnant? I mean, what about the movie, the tour? What about Avery? I need to nothing you! I need to feel nothing for you! I couldn't understand a word that Jared guy was saying, and I've had to pee for the last 20 minutes.
Who's Jared? The Programmer/director dude who just monopolized the last half an hour of my life.
His name was Charles.
Okay, well, I'm sorry.
I don't speak Cajun.
Dara, can you get this thing off me? And I think it might be time to go a size up.
It's rubbing the hell out of my bump.
What are you doing in my dressing room? Where the hell is Dara? I was just here looking for her myself, when I saw all this gorgeous stuff.
But I'm leaving now.
If you value your job, you will forget everything you just saw and heard do you understand me? Okay.
They're friends, her and Avery.
Maybe you should tell him before she does.
Well, I'm pretty sure she'd rather be on my tour than working at the Bluebird again.
And while I'm threatening to fire people, please get off my back about the Avery thing.
I'm gonna tell him when I'm ready.
Which might be never.
Y'all, can we do a round of applause, please, for the amazing Sadie stone and her first arena show tonight? Yeah! Sadie, I'm Bobby bones.
Bobby bones, Sadie stone.
Nice to meet you.
Okay, but you Yeah.
We have got to lock you down for Vegas.
Oh.
Done.
I'm giving you my commitment right now.
Right now? Yes.
Yes.
You got it.
And hey, can we get Sadie in on that? Women of Highway 65? Come on.
Okay.
Yes! Great to see you.
Thanks, hon.
Thank you.
I'll see you soon.
Sadie.
Bye, guys.
Nice to meet you.
Take care.
Bye.
Oh, God, how are you such a badass? Not to mention a superstar and a mom and a headliner.
Oh, please.
I really I don't know how you do it all.
Well, talk to me in a year.
See how we're feeling.
All right, listen, I think we gave the windy city one hell of a great show tonight, don't you? Hell yeah, we did! Hell yeah, we did! All right, now, y'all enjoy your well deserved day off, but don't get in too much trouble, 'cause the folks coming two nights from now, they're gonna want even better than what we gave their friends tonight.
Cheers! Yeah, we're gonna give it to them! Hey, kid.
You're already the opener.
You need to stop kissing his ass so much.
What was that about, crab apple? He wants to be Luke Wheeler when he grows up, that's fine, but I just feel like he tries a little too hard.
Oh, come on.
He's just young and having fun.
You forget what that feels like? Yeah, pretty much.
Can you show me? Hey.
How's Edgehill's number one artist? Or can I call you that, since your opening act has an album on the charts but You don't? You know what? I bet this is your business school way of asking if I got one ready for Edgehill.
I told Henry Benton we'd be releasing next quarter.
Yeah, and we will.
I just need to finish the mix and sequence the tracks.
Glad to hear it.
Hey, uh Who's will talking to? Oh, that's his trainer.
Been out on the road with us a few weeks.
He's a nice guy.
You excuse me one second? It's going all right out here.
What's new at home? Um ooh.
Check this out.
Brand new pedal board.
Nice! What else? Well, you remember my old friend Kiley, right? She's leaving town and wants to catch up before she goes.
But look, if that bothers you, I don't have to see her.
It it doesn't.
You should go.
Okay.
Cool.
Well, uh, what's new and exciting your end, huh? How's working with the diva this time? Uh Fine.
Uh, some of my friends from Natchez came up to see the show.
I didn't get to see them after, though.
They had to go straight back.
Must've loved seeing you up there on the stage.
Yeah, though, they didn't exactly see me.
They texted a picture of the stage afterward.
All you can see is my shoe.
I may as well be invisible.
Maybe they just had bad seats.
Maybe.
There's no chance I would come to Austin and not come to your radio station.
Not gonna happen.
You have my promise.
Can you excuse me? This is my little girl calling me.
Hey, darling.
What's going on? It's late.
When are you coming home? Well, you know I'm still out on tour.
I know, but you don't have a concert tomorrow.
Can't you just come home? I I know, but remember, I've got to go to Idaho to shoot that TV commercial with Luke.
We talked about that.
Can we come? I miss you too much.
I know.
I miss you so much, too.
Um Let me see.
I'm gonna think about it and see if I can figure something out, okay? Okay, mommy.
Okay.
And I want to see you soon.
I love you.
All right, honey.
Get you some sleep.
I love you so much.
Okay.
Good night, mom.
Bye.
Hey, babe, real quick um, what time do you leave Chicago tomorrow? Look, I got to get back to Nashville, but I just wanted to let you know that we're getting ready to drop your new single.
I like the sound of that.
Good.
Good.
I hope you're ready to handle some extra radio promotions on top of your tour schedule.
Bring it.
Hell, I love it out here.
I'll bet.
Hey, and if that, uh, that gym rat is helping to make this your happy place, that's that's great.
What are you talking about? Drop the act, will.
This is a nondisclosure agreement.
Make sure your so called trainer signs it.
Ugh.
These movie people start too early.
Call sheet and sides.
You're shooting that love scene today.
Guess it's better sooner than later.
I'm not wearing these pants 'cause they're fashionable.
Do I have to fly anywhere after we shoot? Uh, no.
Tomorrow's show's in Cincinnati.
You get to sleep in your own bed tonight.
Honestly, I don't know how you're doing it all.
Making a movie, touring, the whole time Yep.
Being knocked up hasn't slowed me down a bit.
Which might be why you haven't had a chance to tell he called me "nothing," Emily.
"Nothing.
" Which is why this nothing is raising this baby alone.
But you didn't make it alone.
Avery is the father.
He has a right to know.
Fine.
Welcome to court order community service.
I don't care what you did to get here.
I only care that you don't get hit by a car.
Wear those.
No phones.
I see it again, it's mine.
Hey, Luke.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I was hoping to get your take on something.
You got a second? Yeah, I got one.
I need to get on a plane.
Can you give us a second? Yeah, it's just, um I've been having a great time out here on tour.
Good.
And, uh, Layla's back home in Nashville oh, hey, if you're asking how to get away with screwing around on your wife, I can't help you with that.
No, no, no.
It's just, um You ever make somebody sign a nondisclosure agreement? Only everybody on my team.
Congrats.
You about to start passing them around means you're a success.
I guess.
But nobody ever gives you a hard time about it? I mean, even though you might be kind of friends with them? Son, if it ain't love, it's business.
All right.
All right.
I like to drink Run around with strangers Anything that screams out "danger" I walk right in Fresh, hot pizza pie! Come on! Get your pepperonis, your olives, your pepperoni, and your sausages! I walk right in To the line of fire That's what I like to see.
Looks like Miranda is interested in a couple I sent over to her.
Oh.
Well, she better snap them up fast.
I think my well's running dry.
I just I can't crack this one.
Oh.
Want some help with the music? Um, Billy's not co writing with anybody.
Oh, no, that's okay.
I think I might just Keep it to myself for the moment.
I don't want to fall into old habits, you know? I I'll get it.
Okay.
I like to drink Run around Mozzarella! Oh, no.
Okay.
Mushrooms! Olives! Come on, get your fresh, hot pizza pie! Thanks.
You're welcome.
Ugh.
This is gross.
Tastes caffeine free.
Hey! Be polite.
Dad, I need something to keep me up.
When you said "surprise trip," I thought you meant something way less boring.
Spending time with your new sisters is not boring.
Okay, sage is his sister.
And it's not like I wanted to be here, either.
Where is she, anyway? My daughter dance camp.
Can't believe I'm jealous of that.
Okay, listen up.
Rayna thought this would be a good opportunity for some family time, and I happen to agree.
I would think those $1,500 headphones might take the sting out of it for you.
How you two doing? You doing all right? Yeah, we're good.
Yeah, um, but I prefer chocolate milk.
So, the school board has approved a pilot program in three schools.
Thank you.
Thank you for helping me navigate the bureaucracy.
You bet.
We also want to encourage our artists to volunteer as mentors.
Hey, maybe your daughters can come up with a list of who they'd be most excited to work with.
Well, I I don't know.
I mean, after flying off on a private jet and spending a day with America's super couple, I think a list to them may be like lame mayor stuff.
Rayna does not have the monopoly on being the cool parent, okay? It's up to you, not not your ex wife, how much fun your daughters think you are.
"Fun.
" Yeah, I'm not, uh, I'm not sure what fun is anymore.
Wow.
Well, suddenly, this has become the most depressing conversation ever.
Now, I'm going to a party tomorrow night.
You're coming.
I don't know.
Tomorrow night.
No excuses.
Here.
Try the fries.
They're super mushy on the inside, just like you like them.
Mmm.
It's perfect.
So, uh, it feels like you just got to town.
Are you sure you want to be leaving? Well, I started dating this new guy.
Works on an Oil Rig.
He's finishing up a little earlier than he thought, so figured I'd move to Tulsa, find out how real this thing between us is.
Wait how are you dating a guy from Tulsa who works on an Oil Rig? Online.
Really? Don't judge.
Good guys are hard to find.
And you know what? I really like this one.
Well, then, I'm happy for you.
So am I.
Kind of feels like my life's finally getting started.
Hey, mom.
Micah? What are you doing here? Well, Benji's mom found chickenpox on his sister, so she freaked out and brought me here.
I'm hungry.
All right, well, go wash up, and I'll get you something to eat.
Okay.
Now you know why I date online.
So, how's it going so far today? Fine.
I'm just a little preoccupied mentally about the scene we have to do later.
Anything specific, or just the whole "being naked on camera" thing? Uh, both.
You know, now that you mentioned it, do you have any Tips for me about being naked on film? Well, I like to do push ups before we roll, but, uh, well, that's just me.
Every little bit helps.
You, uh You gonna get that? No.
Juliette, this is crazy.
Will you please just text or call me? I'm trying to figure out if I should be taking this seriously or not.
Hand it over.
And I'm getting so good at the ukulele, and oh, I'm totally obsessed with glow in the dark bowling.
- Do they have that in Idaho? - I don't know.
I think that's the first breath you've taken in over an hour.
I know.
It's just, I haven't seen my mom in so long, and there's so much to tell.
I know.
Rayna, Luke.
Two minute warning.
Oh, great.
- Hey, you think you can take a quick pic of all of us? - Sure.
Oh, my God.
Do we have time? Headphones.
Come on.
Quick, quick, quick.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Come on.
All right, settle.
That's one good looking family.
Hey, thanks.
Whatever.
Hey.
I have an idea why don't we all be in the commercial? I mean, it's a family car, and we are a family.
I know, but do you know how many people go into putting together a commercial like this? It's crazy, and I don't think they would take kindly to us just changing it at the last second.
Then why did you fly us here? I wanted us to spend time together.
But we're not spending time together.
You have to work, like always, and this trip sucks.
Hey.
Watch that, please.
You know what? You suck! Excuse me? Daphne.
Hey! Come back here right now, young lady.
Daphne! Ms.
mes, we're ready for you guys.
Okay.
And's so much fun to drive.
Then, how about letting me take the wheel for a change? That's a cut! Gonna be a few minutes while we set the next shot.
Oh, all right.
Okay.
I'm gonna talk to Daphne.
You figured out what you're gonna say yet? I have no idea.
I mean, I'm kind of in shock.
"You suck"? Coming from her? Tell you what, if my being gone is doing this, I I don't know.
I know what it takes for us to be successful in this business keeps us away from our kids more than we'd like, but you give it some time.
They'll get used to it and stop acting out like this.
I don't want them to get used to it.
I don't want to get used to it, either.
Fries and apple sauce, huh? That's a good choice.
Ever tried gran jelly? No.
But now I have to, right? How'd you get so smart for How old are you? Nine and half.
Really? Hey.
You want to go hang in the back, wait for me till I'm done? Ok.
Thank you.
Before ask, he's not yours.
But I'm glad you got to meet him.
I watched your teenage vampire movie.
You can watch my Western.
God help me a tweeter.
I should've got to know you a little bit better That's perfect.
Get a day off, he spends it with my daughter.
That's great.
Do you want to go for a walk by myself, not talk about it all damn day? Yeah.
I'd like that.
Ohhh I still can't believe thou're all mine It's a hundred dollar wish down a wishing well Worth every penny, baby, by yourself Don't stop, don't stop You got - Hey, guys, let's go.
Out.
- good love Look, I need to speak with my producer.
- Good love - Out.
Let's go.
Let's go.
It's a light in the dark, to a runaway heart What's up? Tell me she' not flirting with you.
A little.
She's young, husband on the road.
Must be lonely.
Yeah.
Sure she's pining for him.
How's it coming on this? Good, but it took a lot to get her here.
Blamed it on not feeling the lyrics.
Ringing up overtime, though.
And it keeps on getting better Good love, love, love Got me thinkin' 'bout forever Good love, love, love Whoo! Workout felt great.
Yeah, Mr.
hard body.
Your muscles got muscles.
What do you say we hit the shower, hmm? Hey, you, uh Want to maybe get some dinner with me later? Just the two of us? Uh Maybe.
Uh, listen, um I need you to sign that for me.
It's just a Standard nondisclosure agreement.
It's kind of a standard thing if you're Kind of a celebrity.
You have all your boyfriends sign one? Well, that's not what this is.
You know that, right? I guess I didn't.
Guess I assumed that sleeping together, going out to eat, going to see a movie This is not a relationship.
I don't want a relationship.
I just want To just get your needs met.
What we do is a physical thing.
That's it.
It's Nothing to do with the rest of my life.
Right.
I guess it's easier to deny needing the occasional hookup than to actually be in love with a man, isn't it? Honestly, yeah.
Hey! Don't even bother putting me down for a reference.
Everything okay? Yeah.
Sorry I was a brat before.
Is that what you want to hear? It's not what I want to hear.
Is that how you feel? This whole craziness with the schedule and being apart, it's been hard for me.
You think maybe it has been for you, too? I know y'all coming here for one day kind of feels like a tease, but I just wanted to get a chance to see your face.
'Cause my favorite time is when I get to be with you.
Me too.
So I'm gonna take advantage of every single second that we get together today.
'Cause no matter how much time we have apart, I don't love you any less ever.
Okay.
What do you say after we're done with this commercial thing, we go do something fun, like a normal family? It's a deal.
Thanks.
My phone? Oh, yeah.
Thanks.
You really think I'm gonna get through the next three weeks without anybody noticing? Come in.
Excuse me.
Juliette.
A guy named Avery here to see you.
I don't know anybody with that name.
Okay.
Sorry.
You kidding? She won't see me? After sending some crap text about being pregnant with my Ba, you ignore my calls, and now won't even face me?! Huh?! Well, congratulations on being a coward as well as a liar! Juliette! I know you can hear me! Hey! You knock it off! 'Cause you're about two seconds away from going to jail again.
I'm doing you a favor.
Just tell me is it true? Is she pregnant? Yes.
But nobody here knows about that.
At least, they didn't till you shot off your big mouth about it.
And is it mine? You know, you've already made your big scene.
I'm not gonna let you stand here now and insult her by no, I mean, she's sure it's not Jeff's? What? Look, look, all I know is that she says it's yours, and I believe her, okay? You know what the sad thing is? I used to think you were a really great influence on her.
I really did.
And now look at you.
You're A mess.
You're drinking all the time, getting arrested, shouting like some crazy person.
Juliette was raised in chaos.
There's no way I'm gonna let the same thing happen to her child.
What the hell does this mean? Huh? I mean, wh what does she want to do? What what does she want me to do? Go Away.
Hey, you cannot be flirting with him, especially when those cameras are on.
Have you forgotten that you are married to one of my top earners? Oh, so will can screw around with his trainer, but I have to wear a chastity belt? Nice double standard.
Yep.
But not because he's a guy because he sells albums, which is something you might be able to do if you just recorded what was chosen for you as quickly and as inexpensively as possible.
Okay, first of all, the deal was that my record go gold.
That's not just gonna be cheap.
Second of all, why do you keep bringing me songs about being in love with someone forever? Okay, I can't just sing what I don't believe in.
What don't you believe in? Love? Neither do I.
Fake it.
Could I at least try writing something myself? Something a little bit more heartfelt? That would require you actually having feelings.
Oh, my gosh.
It's Layna.
Can I get a picture with you two? You know what? Not tonight.
But y'all have fun, though, okay? How about autographs? Can we get all of your autographs? You know, we're just having some time with our family.
Thanks.
Love you guys! Okay, let me get one.
Okay, everyone, let's close the set.
Close set, everybody.
Oh, there she is.
Perfect.
We're gonna start with Charlie and patsy in the throes of passion, then into dialogue as Charlie proposes.
Sound good? Yep.
Mm hmm.
So, Juliette, darling, let's get you on the bed here.
How much are you planning on seeing? Well, it's not x rated, but are you planning on getting side angles, or I have an idea why not let her be on top, give more of a sense of nudity by showing her entire back rather than just, you know, pieces of her front? How do you feel about that? Yeah.
That's great.
I love it.
Let's rehearse this.
All right.
I just? Yeah.
Don't worry.
Your, uh, secret's safe with me.
I was outside your trailer earlier.
Barely shows, by the way.
Susie, be a love and take Juliette's robe, would you, please? Hey! Yeah! It's all in the wrist.
Yeah.
That's what they tell me.
Yeah, all in your wrist.
Hey, get over there.
Whoo! Hey! - You see that? - That was awesome! Hey, darling.
Thank you.
That was so good! Hey, honey.
You don't even have your shoes on yet.
I don't want to bowl.
How come? Well, because I'd rather not have a picture of me being lame in some magazine again.
They should not even be allowed to do this.
- It's true, isn't it? - I am plain.
No, it is not.
That is not true at all.
You are beautiful.
And talented.
And this is garbage.
There are cameras everywhere, mom all the time.
I know.
I'm gonna do whatever I can to protect you from all this.
Okay? Thanks.
But if I'm not successful all the time, you need to ignore it.
Please don't tell me that I only need to worry about being beautiful on the inside.
I won't tell you that, even though it is true.
Listen, I know how hard it is to be a girl your age, even without all this crap coming at you.
What'd you do? Other than get elected homecoming queen? I decided to be the best version of myself.
Don't you let these people do it for you.
You do it for yourself.
Nice night for a walk.
Yeah, it is.
Get his wallet.
That's what you get, faggot.
A hot dog is messier than a deep dish pizza.
Well, eventually, you'll learn I'm right about most things.
Well, thank you.
For what? Turning this day around.
I swear to God, that Luke can ruin things he ain't even here for.
I'm not sure it's all on him.
It's my sister.
You got a sister? We've been playing phone tag all week.
Give me a sec? Yeah.
Hey! You finally caught up with me.
Hey.
That kid you just dropped off what's the deal? He looked pretty hurt.

Who is it? Deacon.
I'm kind of in the middle of something.
What do you want? I was Checking on you.
I saw you out front.
You looked kind of banged up.
I just want to make sure you're okay.
It's nothing.
It's just a stupid bar fight.
Flirted with the wrong girl.
Let's at least get you a doctor and take a look at you.
Aw, it's fine.
I'm fine.
Yeah, well, if there was more than one of them, you might've broke a rib or something.
More than one of who? Live and let live.
That's what I say.
Well, I'm not sure what you mean by that.
Look, just don't go to the parks and crap like that, all right? I got some friends who well, they got in some real trouble.

Yeah.
That's one way of putting it.
Come on.
Come on.
Show me around the place.
Come on.
What you get here in your own car or someone else's minivan? Listen! Listen, man.
I know I ruined Zoey's going away party, but would you just forgive me already? Because I really need to talk to someone.
Please.
Texting it is pretty terrible, but At least she told you.
I'm not sure why, since she made it pretty clear she doesn't want me involved.
Is it really up to her? I mean it's your kid.
You should have a relationship with him.
Or or her, if that's what you want.
I have no idea what I want.
I mean, I I always thought by the time I had kids, I'd have the whole deal, you know? Wife, house, yard Grill.
You have a good apartment.
I have a sad dad apartment.
I mean, I don't have this.
Well, maybe it doesn't matter.
I mean, Juliette and I can't be around each other for more than two seconds without it turning to crap.
May maybe I should just let it go.
Maybe that's what's best for the baby and Maybe for me, too.
Hey, mom! Break a leg tonight but not really.
Thanks, honey.
How are you today? Did y'all have a good day? The best.
I got my ears pierced.

Men of greatness, huh? Hey, I keep telling you chicks dig power.
Oh, excuse me.
I got to get this real quick.
Yeah.
Of course.
Hey.
How could you do that without me? Do what? Daphne's ears? Maddie's hair? Calm down.
We've always told Daphne she could get her ears pierced in the 5th grade, and it's not like Maddie shaved her head or dyed her hair purple, okay? I know, but you have to talk to me about things like that.
I mean, I want to be there for those things.
I'm their mother.
Yeah, and I'm their father.
Rayna, you're not here, okay? And you're gonna miss out on some of these things.
Now, look, I'm sorry you're upset.
But you don't get to take your anger out on me.
Look, I'm in the middle of something right now, so I got to go.
Bye.
They were tricky.
Oh, you got them.
Yeah.
Want to go hang out till I got to be onstage? I'd like that, yeah.
You really expect me to let you get out there looking like that, son? I'm sorry, I I can't let you scare off the audience.
What the hell happened to him? Hey, man, why don't you just let one of your people take care of him with a little bit of makeup? God knows you wear enough.
Yeah, thanks.
I got this.
Get on back to my dressing room and get it taken care of.
Yes, sir.
Nice company you keep.
Hey.
Get to see that doctor yet? Yeah, he said I was fine.
All right.
Look.
I'd appreciate it if, um Right.
Like I said not my business.
Hey.
You need to talk or anything Yeah, probably won't.
But, uh thanks.
Yeah.
Really? Yep.
Just one day in Amsterdam while I was in college.
I mean, not that I remember it all that well.
Ohh.
So before you were mayor, you knew how to loosen up.
Yeah a little.
It's like riding a bike, you know.
Oh, yeah? If you say so.
Oh, damn it! You know, uh I could make this go away.
Well, then, I'd owe you one.
Good night, Teddy.
Good night.
Come in.
Hello! Hey.
Hi! I warmed them up, so you can show them how it's really done.
- You are awesome.
So good.
- Thank you.
Oh, it was so fun.
Hey, how'd it go with your girls yesterday? Did y'all have fun? Um It didn't go that great.
What happened? I knew it was gonna be hard I just didn't know it was gonna be this hard being away from them.
You know, my mom wasn't around for me a lot of my growing up, and she missed a lot of the big moments.
And I just never imagined in a million years that I was gonna miss that with my girls.
And it sucks.
Time to walk.
Do you need a minute? 'Cause No.
I'm good.
Gunnar? What are you doing here? You disappeared without a word and then had a baby six months later? Do you think I'm stupid? Of course not.
I told you.
Listen.
My grandma's in a nursing home.
Jason is gone.
If I have any family left, I I need to know.
So, you look me in the eye, and you tell me the truth.
Is Micah mine? Yes.
Tell that devil to take you back Take you back, take you back My heart went from red to black Red to black, red to black Came up from that lake of fire lake of fire, lake of fire Only had that one desire One desire Got a mouth full of gasoline Don't you bring your fire near me Well, I gave you all I got to give I know that ain't no way to live So I told that devil to take you back - I told that devil to take you back - I told that devil to take you back Ooooh Told that devil take you back Take you back What's wrong? Red to black, red to black Can't Breathe.

Hey, we need some help over here! Told that devil to take you back
The reason I came by was to ask why I left Texas without saying anything? I'm gay.
My next record is gonna go gold, or your little cash cow of a cowboy is gonna be outed by his wife.
I just signed with Rayna Jaymes and Highway 65! Everyone is fair game.
I need to know if I can sign a couple of kids to the label with only one parent's consent.
You're just gonna hide the fact that you're pregnant? I mean, what about the movie, the tour? What about Avery? I need to nothing you! I need to feel nothing for you! I couldn't understand a word that Jared guy was saying, and I've had to pee for the last 20 minutes.
Who's Jared? The Programmer/director dude who just monopolized the last half an hour of my life.
His name was Charles.
Okay, well, I'm sorry.
I don't speak Cajun.
Dara, can you get this thing off me? And I think it might be time to go a size up.
It's rubbing the hell out of my bump.
What are you doing in my dressing room? Where the hell is Dara? I was just here looking for her myself, when I saw all this gorgeous stuff.
But I'm leaving now.
If you value your job, you will forget everything you just saw and heard do you understand me? Okay.
They're friends, her and Avery.
Maybe you should tell him before she does.
Well, I'm pretty sure she'd rather be on my tour than working at the Bluebird again.
And while I'm threatening to fire people, please get off my back about the Avery thing.
I'm gonna tell him when I'm ready.
Which might be never.
Y'all, can we do a round of applause, please, for the amazing Sadie stone and her first arena show tonight? Yeah! Sadie, I'm Bobby bones.
Bobby bones, Sadie stone.
Nice to meet you.
Okay, but you Yeah.
We have got to lock you down for Vegas.
Oh.
Done.
I'm giving you my commitment right now.
Right now? Yes.
Yes.
You got it.
And hey, can we get Sadie in on that? Women of Highway 65? Come on.
Okay.
Yes! Great to see you.
Thanks, hon.
Thank you.
I'll see you soon.
Sadie.
Bye, guys.
Nice to meet you.
Take care.
Bye.
Oh, God, how are you such a badass? Not to mention a superstar and a mom and a headliner.
Oh, please.
I really I don't know how you do it all.
Well, talk to me in a year.
See how we're feeling.
All right, listen, I think we gave the windy city one hell of a great show tonight, don't you? Hell yeah, we did! Hell yeah, we did! All right, now, y'all enjoy your well deserved day off, but don't get in too much trouble, 'cause the folks coming two nights from now, they're gonna want even better than what we gave their friends tonight.
Cheers! Yeah, we're gonna give it to them! Hey, kid.
You're already the opener.
You need to stop kissing his ass so much.
What was that about, crab apple? He wants to be Luke Wheeler when he grows up, that's fine, but I just feel like he tries a little too hard.
Oh, come on.
He's just young and having fun.
You forget what that feels like? Yeah, pretty much.
Can you show me? Hey.
How's Edgehill's number one artist? Or can I call you that, since your opening act has an album on the charts but You don't? You know what? I bet this is your business school way of asking if I got one ready for Edgehill.
I told Henry Benton we'd be releasing next quarter.
Yeah, and we will.
I just need to finish the mix and sequence the tracks.
Glad to hear it.
Hey, uh Who's will talking to? Oh, that's his trainer.
Been out on the road with us a few weeks.
He's a nice guy.
You excuse me one second? It's going all right out here.
What's new at home? Um ooh.
Check this out.
Brand new pedal board.
Nice! What else? Well, you remember my old friend Kiley, right? She's leaving town and wants to catch up before she goes.
But look, if that bothers you, I don't have to see her.
It it doesn't.
You should go.
Okay.
Cool.
Well, uh, what's new and exciting your end, huh? How's working with the diva this time? Uh Fine.
Uh, some of my friends from Natchez came up to see the show.
I didn't get to see them after, though.
They had to go straight back.
Must've loved seeing you up there on the stage.
Yeah, though, they didn't exactly see me.
They texted a picture of the stage afterward.
All you can see is my shoe.
I may as well be invisible.
Maybe they just had bad seats.
Maybe.
There's no chance I would come to Austin and not come to your radio station.
Not gonna happen.
You have my promise.
Can you excuse me? This is my little girl calling me.
Hey, darling.
What's going on? It's late.
When are you coming home? Well, you know I'm still out on tour.
I know, but you don't have a concert tomorrow.
Can't you just come home? I I know, but remember, I've got to go to Idaho to shoot that TV commercial with Luke.
We talked about that.
Can we come? I miss you too much.
I know.
I miss you so much, too.
Um Let me see.
I'm gonna think about it and see if I can figure something out, okay? Okay, mommy.
Okay.
And I want to see you soon.
I love you.
All right, honey.
Get you some sleep.
I love you so much.
Okay.
Good night, mom.
Bye.
Hey, babe, real quick um, what time do you leave Chicago tomorrow? Look, I got to get back to Nashville, but I just wanted to let you know that we're getting ready to drop your new single.
I like the sound of that.
Good.
Good.
I hope you're ready to handle some extra radio promotions on top of your tour schedule.
Bring it.
Hell, I love it out here.
I'll bet.
Hey, and if that, uh, that gym rat is helping to make this your happy place, that's that's great.
What are you talking about? Drop the act, will.
This is a nondisclosure agreement.
Make sure your so called trainer signs it.
Ugh.
These movie people start too early.
Call sheet and sides.
You're shooting that love scene today.
Guess it's better sooner than later.
I'm not wearing these pants 'cause they're fashionable.
Do I have to fly anywhere after we shoot? Uh, no.
Tomorrow's show's in Cincinnati.
You get to sleep in your own bed tonight.
Honestly, I don't know how you're doing it all.
Making a movie, touring, the whole time Yep.
Being knocked up hasn't slowed me down a bit.
Which might be why you haven't had a chance to tell he called me "nothing," Emily.
"Nothing.
" Which is why this nothing is raising this baby alone.
But you didn't make it alone.
Avery is the father.
He has a right to know.
Fine.
Welcome to court order community service.
I don't care what you did to get here.
I only care that you don't get hit by a car.
Wear those.
No phones.
I see it again, it's mine.
Hey, Luke.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I was hoping to get your take on something.
You got a second? Yeah, I got one.
I need to get on a plane.
Can you give us a second? Yeah, it's just, um I've been having a great time out here on tour.
Good.
And, uh, Layla's back home in Nashville oh, hey, if you're asking how to get away with screwing around on your wife, I can't help you with that.
No, no, no.
It's just, um You ever make somebody sign a nondisclosure agreement? Only everybody on my team.
Congrats.
You about to start passing them around means you're a success.
I guess.
But nobody ever gives you a hard time about it? I mean, even though you might be kind of friends with them? Son, if it ain't love, it's business.
All right.
All right.
I like to drink Run around with strangers Anything that screams out "danger" I walk right in Fresh, hot pizza pie! Come on! Get your pepperonis, your olives, your pepperoni, and your sausages! I walk right in To the line of fire That's what I like to see.
Looks like Miranda is interested in a couple I sent over to her.
Oh.
Well, she better snap them up fast.
I think my well's running dry.
I just I can't crack this one.
Oh.
Want some help with the music? Um, Billy's not co writing with anybody.
Oh, no, that's okay.
I think I might just Keep it to myself for the moment.
I don't want to fall into old habits, you know? I I'll get it.
Okay.
I like to drink Run around Mozzarella! Oh, no.
Okay.
Mushrooms! Olives! Come on, get your fresh, hot pizza pie! Thanks.
You're welcome.
Ugh.
This is gross.
Tastes caffeine free.
Hey! Be polite.
Dad, I need something to keep me up.
When you said "surprise trip," I thought you meant something way less boring.
Spending time with your new sisters is not boring.
Okay, sage is his sister.
And it's not like I wanted to be here, either.
Where is she, anyway? My daughter dance camp.
Can't believe I'm jealous of that.
Okay, listen up.
Rayna thought this would be a good opportunity for some family time, and I happen to agree.
I would think those $1,500 headphones might take the sting out of it for you.
How you two doing? You doing all right? Yeah, we're good.
Yeah, um, but I prefer chocolate milk.
So, the school board has approved a pilot program in three schools.
Thank you.
Thank you for helping me navigate the bureaucracy.
You bet.
We also want to encourage our artists to volunteer as mentors.
Hey, maybe your daughters can come up with a list of who they'd be most excited to work with.
Well, I I don't know.
I mean, after flying off on a private jet and spending a day with America's super couple, I think a list to them may be like lame mayor stuff.
Rayna does not have the monopoly on being the cool parent, okay? It's up to you, not not your ex wife, how much fun your daughters think you are.
"Fun.
" Yeah, I'm not, uh, I'm not sure what fun is anymore.
Wow.
Well, suddenly, this has become the most depressing conversation ever.
Now, I'm going to a party tomorrow night.
You're coming.
I don't know.
Tomorrow night.
No excuses.
Here.
Try the fries.
They're super mushy on the inside, just like you like them.
Mmm.
It's perfect.
So, uh, it feels like you just got to town.
Are you sure you want to be leaving? Well, I started dating this new guy.
Works on an Oil Rig.
He's finishing up a little earlier than he thought, so figured I'd move to Tulsa, find out how real this thing between us is.
Wait how are you dating a guy from Tulsa who works on an Oil Rig? Online.
Really? Don't judge.
Good guys are hard to find.
And you know what? I really like this one.
Well, then, I'm happy for you.
So am I.
Kind of feels like my life's finally getting started.
Hey, mom.
Micah? What are you doing here? Well, Benji's mom found chickenpox on his sister, so she freaked out and brought me here.
I'm hungry.
All right, well, go wash up, and I'll get you something to eat.
Okay.
Now you know why I date online.
So, how's it going so far today? Fine.
I'm just a little preoccupied mentally about the scene we have to do later.
Anything specific, or just the whole "being naked on camera" thing? Uh, both.
You know, now that you mentioned it, do you have any Tips for me about being naked on film? Well, I like to do push ups before we roll, but, uh, well, that's just me.
Every little bit helps.
You, uh You gonna get that? No.
Juliette, this is crazy.
Will you please just text or call me? I'm trying to figure out if I should be taking this seriously or not.
Hand it over.
And I'm getting so good at the ukulele, and oh, I'm totally obsessed with glow in the dark bowling.
- Do they have that in Idaho? - I don't know.
I think that's the first breath you've taken in over an hour.
I know.
It's just, I haven't seen my mom in so long, and there's so much to tell.
I know.
Rayna, Luke.
Two minute warning.
Oh, great.
- Hey, you think you can take a quick pic of all of us? - Sure.
Oh, my God.
Do we have time? Headphones.
Come on.
Quick, quick, quick.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Come on.
All right, settle.
That's one good looking family.
Hey, thanks.
Whatever.
Hey.
I have an idea why don't we all be in the commercial? I mean, it's a family car, and we are a family.
I know, but do you know how many people go into putting together a commercial like this? It's crazy, and I don't think they would take kindly to us just changing it at the last second.
Then why did you fly us here? I wanted us to spend time together.
But we're not spending time together.
You have to work, like always, and this trip sucks.
Hey.
Watch that, please.
You know what? You suck! Excuse me? Daphne.
Hey! Come back here right now, young lady.
Daphne! Ms.
mes, we're ready for you guys.
Okay.
And's so much fun to drive.
Then, how about letting me take the wheel for a change? That's a cut! Gonna be a few minutes while we set the next shot.
Oh, all right.
Okay.
I'm gonna talk to Daphne.
You figured out what you're gonna say yet? I have no idea.
I mean, I'm kind of in shock.
"You suck"? Coming from her? Tell you what, if my being gone is doing this, I I don't know.
I know what it takes for us to be successful in this business keeps us away from our kids more than we'd like, but you give it some time.
They'll get used to it and stop acting out like this.
I don't want them to get used to it.
I don't want to get used to it, either.
Fries and apple sauce, huh? That's a good choice.
Ever tried gran jelly? No.
But now I have to, right? How'd you get so smart for How old are you? Nine and half.
Really? Hey.
You want to go hang in the back, wait for me till I'm done? Ok.
Thank you.
Before ask, he's not yours.
But I'm glad you got to meet him.
I watched your teenage vampire movie.
You can watch my Western.
God help me a tweeter.
I should've got to know you a little bit better That's perfect.
Get a day off, he spends it with my daughter.
That's great.
Do you want to go for a walk by myself, not talk about it all damn day? Yeah.
I'd like that.
Ohhh I still can't believe thou're all mine It's a hundred dollar wish down a wishing well Worth every penny, baby, by yourself Don't stop, don't stop You got - Hey, guys, let's go.
Out.
- good love Look, I need to speak with my producer.
- Good love - Out.
Let's go.
Let's go.
It's a light in the dark, to a runaway heart What's up? Tell me she' not flirting with you.
A little.
She's young, husband on the road.
Must be lonely.
Yeah.
Sure she's pining for him.
How's it coming on this? Good, but it took a lot to get her here.
Blamed it on not feeling the lyrics.
Ringing up overtime, though.
And it keeps on getting better Good love, love, love Got me thinkin' 'bout forever Good love, love, love Whoo! Workout felt great.
Yeah, Mr.
hard body.
Your muscles got muscles.
What do you say we hit the shower, hmm? Hey, you, uh Want to maybe get some dinner with me later? Just the two of us? Uh Maybe.
Uh, listen, um I need you to sign that for me.
It's just a Standard nondisclosure agreement.
It's kind of a standard thing if you're Kind of a celebrity.
You have all your boyfriends sign one? Well, that's not what this is.
You know that, right? I guess I didn't.
Guess I assumed that sleeping together, going out to eat, going to see a movie This is not a relationship.
I don't want a relationship.
I just want To just get your needs met.
What we do is a physical thing.
That's it.
It's Nothing to do with the rest of my life.
Right.
I guess it's easier to deny needing the occasional hookup than to actually be in love with a man, isn't it? Honestly, yeah.
Hey! Don't even bother putting me down for a reference.
Everything okay? Yeah.
Sorry I was a brat before.
Is that what you want to hear? It's not what I want to hear.
Is that how you feel? This whole craziness with the schedule and being apart, it's been hard for me.
You think maybe it has been for you, too? I know y'all coming here for one day kind of feels like a tease, but I just wanted to get a chance to see your face.
'Cause my favorite time is when I get to be with you.
Me too.
So I'm gonna take advantage of every single second that we get together today.
'Cause no matter how much time we have apart, I don't love you any less ever.
Okay.
What do you say after we're done with this commercial thing, we go do something fun, like a normal family? It's a deal.
Thanks.
My phone? Oh, yeah.
Thanks.
You really think I'm gonna get through the next three weeks without anybody noticing? Come in.
Excuse me.
Juliette.
A guy named Avery here to see you.
I don't know anybody with that name.
Okay.
Sorry.
You kidding? She won't see me? After sending some crap text about being pregnant with my Ba, you ignore my calls, and now won't even face me?! Huh?! Well, congratulations on being a coward as well as a liar! Juliette! I know you can hear me! Hey! You knock it off! 'Cause you're about two seconds away from going to jail again.
I'm doing you a favor.
Just tell me is it true? Is she pregnant? Yes.
But nobody here knows about that.
At least, they didn't till you shot off your big mouth about it.
And is it mine? You know, you've already made your big scene.
I'm not gonna let you stand here now and insult her by no, I mean, she's sure it's not Jeff's? What? Look, look, all I know is that she says it's yours, and I believe her, okay? You know what the sad thing is? I used to think you were a really great influence on her.
I really did.
And now look at you.
You're A mess.
You're drinking all the time, getting arrested, shouting like some crazy person.
Juliette was raised in chaos.
There's no way I'm gonna let the same thing happen to her child.
What the hell does this mean? Huh? I mean, wh what does she want to do? What what does she want me to do? Go Away.
Hey, you cannot be flirting with him, especially when those cameras are on.
Have you forgotten that you are married to one of my top earners? Oh, so will can screw around with his trainer, but I have to wear a chastity belt? Nice double standard.
Yep.
But not because he's a guy because he sells albums, which is something you might be able to do if you just recorded what was chosen for you as quickly and as inexpensively as possible.
Okay, first of all, the deal was that my record go gold.
That's not just gonna be cheap.
Second of all, why do you keep bringing me songs about being in love with someone forever? Okay, I can't just sing what I don't believe in.
What don't you believe in? Love? Neither do I.
Fake it.
Could I at least try writing something myself? Something a little bit more heartfelt? That would require you actually having feelings.
Oh, my gosh.
It's Layna.
Can I get a picture with you two? You know what? Not tonight.
But y'all have fun, though, okay? How about autographs? Can we get all of your autographs? You know, we're just having some time with our family.
Thanks.
Love you guys! Okay, let me get one.
Okay, everyone, let's close the set.
Close set, everybody.
Oh, there she is.
Perfect.
We're gonna start with Charlie and patsy in the throes of passion, then into dialogue as Charlie proposes.
Sound good? Yep.
Mm hmm.
So, Juliette, darling, let's get you on the bed here.
How much are you planning on seeing? Well, it's not x rated, but are you planning on getting side angles, or I have an idea why not let her be on top, give more of a sense of nudity by showing her entire back rather than just, you know, pieces of her front? How do you feel about that? Yeah.
That's great.
I love it.
Let's rehearse this.
All right.
I just? Yeah.
Don't worry.
Your, uh, secret's safe with me.
I was outside your trailer earlier.
Barely shows, by the way.
Susie, be a love and take Juliette's robe, would you, please? Hey! Yeah! It's all in the wrist.
Yeah.
That's what they tell me.
Yeah, all in your wrist.
Hey, get over there.
Whoo! Hey! - You see that? - That was awesome! Hey, darling.
Thank you.
That was so good! Hey, honey.
You don't even have your shoes on yet.
I don't want to bowl.
How come? Well, because I'd rather not have a picture of me being lame in some magazine again.
They should not even be allowed to do this.
- It's true, isn't it? - I am plain.
No, it is not.
That is not true at all.
You are beautiful.
And talented.
And this is garbage.
There are cameras everywhere, mom all the time.
I know.
I'm gonna do whatever I can to protect you from all this.
Okay? Thanks.
But if I'm not successful all the time, you need to ignore it.
Please don't tell me that I only need to worry about being beautiful on the inside.
I won't tell you that, even though it is true.
Listen, I know how hard it is to be a girl your age, even without all this crap coming at you.
What'd you do? Other than get elected homecoming queen? I decided to be the best version of myself.
Don't you let these people do it for you.
You do it for yourself.
Nice night for a walk.
Yeah, it is.
Get his wallet.
That's what you get, faggot.
A hot dog is messier than a deep dish pizza.
Well, eventually, you'll learn I'm right about most things.
Well, thank you.
For what? Turning this day around.
I swear to God, that Luke can ruin things he ain't even here for.
I'm not sure it's all on him.
It's my sister.
You got a sister? We've been playing phone tag all week.
Give me a sec? Yeah.
Hey! You finally caught up with me.
Hey.
That kid you just dropped off what's the deal? He looked pretty hurt.
Walking alone through Jackson park at this time of night probably got mugged, bashed, or both.
Who is it? Deacon.
I'm kind of in the middle of something.
What do you want? I was Checking on you.
I saw you out front.
You looked kind of banged up.
I just want to make sure you're okay.
It's nothing.
It's just a stupid bar fight.
Flirted with the wrong girl.
Let's at least get you a doctor and take a look at you.
Aw, it's fine.
I'm fine.
Yeah, well, if there was more than one of them, you might've broke a rib or something.
More than one of who? Live and let live.
That's what I say.
Well, I'm not sure what you mean by that.
Look, just don't go to the parks and crap like that, all right? I got some friends who well, they got in some real trouble.
All right.
How long you staying in Nashville? Oh, I don't know.
A week.
It's up to my mom.
Maybe we'll see you then? Yeah.
All right, bye.
Bye.
Bye.
Sir.
Hey, you jet setters.
So, how was it? It was amazing.
Amazing.
The hotel pool had a water slide.
It was the most fun ever.
Wow.
Water slide, huh? But Most fun ever? Really? I mean, I don't know.
I bet the three of us could easily top that today.
Why? What are we doing? Whatever you want.
Sky's the limit.
Really? Anything? I like to drink Run around with strangers Anything that screams out "danger" I walk right in Get your fresh pizza! To the line of fire Pizza pie right here!

I know I ruined Zoey's going away party, but would you just forgive me already? Because I really need to talk to someone.
Please.
Texting it is pretty terrible, but At least she told you.
I'm not sure why, since she made it pretty clear she doesn't want me involved.
Is it really up to her? I mean it's your kid.
You should have a relationship with him.
Or or her, if that's what you want.
I have no idea what I want.
I mean, I I always thought by the time I had kids, I'd have the whole deal, you know? Wife, house, yard Grill.
You have a good apartment.
I have a sad dad apartment.
I mean, I don't have this.
Well, maybe it doesn't matter.
I mean, Juliette and I can't be around each other for more than two seconds without it turning to crap.
May maybe I should just let it go.
Maybe that's what's best for the baby and Maybe for me, too.
Hey, mom! Break a leg tonight but not really.
Thanks, honey.
How are you today? Did y'all have a good day? The best.
I got my ears pierced.

Of course.
Hey.
How could you do that without me? Do what? Daphne's ears? Maddie's hair? Calm down.
We've always told Daphne she could get her ears pierced in the 5th grade, and it's not like Maddie shaved her head or dyed her hair purple, okay? I know, but you have to talk to me about things like that.
I mean, I want to be there for those things.
I'm their mother.
Yeah, and I'm their father.
Rayna, you're not here, okay? And you're gonna miss out on some of these things.
Now, look, I'm sorry you're upset.

Bye.
They were tricky.
Oh, you got them.

So before you were mayor, you knew how to loosen up.
Yeah a little.
It's like riding a bike, you know.
Oh, yeah? If you say so.

Well, then, I'd owe you one.
Good night, Teddy.

Hello! Hey.
Hi! I warmed them up, so you can show them how it's really done.
- You are awesome.
So good.
- Thank you.
Oh, it was so fun.
Hey, how'd it go with your girls yesterday? Did y'all have fun? Um It didn't go that great.
What happened? I knew it was gonna be hard I just didn't know it was gonna be this hard being away from them.
You know, my mom wasn't around for me a lot of my growing up, and she missed a lot of the big moments.
And I just never imagined in a million years that I was gonna miss that with my girls.
And it sucks.
Time to walk.
Do you need a minute? 'Cause No.
I'm good.
Gunnar? What are you doing here? You disappeared without a word and then had a baby six months later? Do you think I'm stupid? Of course not.
I told you.
Listen.
My grandma's in a nursing home.
Jason is gone.
If I have any family left, I I need to know.
So, you look me in the eye, and you tell me the truth.
Is Micah mine? Yes.
