Nashville s06e09 Episode Script
Pick Yourself Up
1 Previously on "Nashville" - His parenting has nothing to do with - He has everything to do - with that show, Daphne.
- He's sending me to boarding school.
- Let go of him, Brad! Stop it! - [groans.]
Did you just assault me? So when I call your name please come join me here up front.
Daphne Conrad.
I went down there and saw a completely different person.
Certainly wasn't Juliette.
I don't know what's wrong, I can usually do more.
How much does Will hate me? He doesn't hate you.
He's just sensitive right now.
- Please welcome The Last Highways.
- [cheering.]
- Somebody, come on! - Call 911! [woman over PA.]
We don't know.
Nobody's telling us anything.
They're running a bunch of tests trying to figure it out.
[cell phone chimes.]
Yeah.
[mumbling.]
Another mention.
The internet loves a good heart attack.
Wow.
New record for crass.
Will would laugh.
He likes puns.
Thanks.
We'll keep you posted.
Okay.
Deacon sends his prayers.
Says if there's anything we need So, your friend has a serious infection.
But we've started him on broad spectrum antibiotics and he should improve quickly.
Infection? The EMTs thought it was a heart attack.
It looked like one.
And it could have been just as dangerous but it's likely an infection of the heart's inner lining.
Something we call Endocarditis.
Are any of you aware he was using needles, injecting steroids? What? No.
Um, once, yeah.
A few months ago, he said it was human growth hormone.
Is he gonna be okay? He should be, but he needs rest.
It might be good if you guys go and do the same.
You can come see him first thing in the morning.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Yep.
[sighs.]
How's Will doing? The last report I got, he's doing much better.
- Good.
- Yeah, it is.
- Thank you.
- Here.
Hey, I just wanted to say I'm sorry, you know, about what happened.
I just I know, I know.
It's fine.
Well, it's not fine.
And I feel like you still got something to say so I just wish you'd say it.
Look, Deacon, I I get why you did what you did.
I really do.
It's just it's gonna make things a lot worse.
I know.
I'm sorry, okay? It was just a split second thing.
And I just reacted I get it, honestly.
It's taken me years to learn not to react to him.
You know how much I care about Jake.
I know.
And I'm sure on top of that, I was flashing back to my own dad and to things that he would do.
I get it.
You don't think I wanna punch him in the neck every time I see him? I'll let you handle the heavy hitting next time, okay? Okay.
Thanks.
[knocking on door.]
Hi.
Excuse me.
Are you Jessie Caine? I am, yeah.
You've been served.
Sorry.
What does it say? He's suing me for full custody.
What can I do? Nothing.
I just I need to make some phone calls right now, okay? Yeah.
You make them.
Hey.
Hey, buddy.
You guys just watching me sleep? Yeah.
You were snoring pretty good there.
- Was I? - How are you feeling, man? Oh, like a thousand bucks.
Seriously, though, I'm gonna take this IV home with me and use it for my hangovers.
Steroids? Really, Will? What were you thinking? Guess I was just hankering for some adult acne and mood swings, you know.
It's just so stupid.
- Gunnar - No! I mean, why not? He He could have Gunnar's right.
It was stupid.
But you already knew that about me.
Anyway, I'm sorry for everything I put you guys through.
Especially the mood swings.
[cell phone rings.]
I should probably Oh, yeah, take it, yeah.
I'm not gonna die.
[cell phone rings.]
- Avery Barkley? - Yeah.
Who's calling? April Levine from the Global Examiner.
I'm writing a feature on Juliette Barnes' mysterious absence from the public eye.
How did you get this number? I'm told she's joined a cult and fled the country.
Care to comment? She's on a service trip.
She'll be back soon.
And what exactly was the purpose of your flight to Bolivia the other week? It seems like a long way to travel just to say hi.
My purpose was private, okay? And if you have any respect for that, you won't publish this crap.
I was taking requests for a coffee run.
Didn't mean to intrude.
It's okay.
You sure? Just tell the guys I've got to run an errand.
Okay.
Oh! Get checked! No, get checked! - MADDIE: Hi, guys! - Against the boards! Hey, come here.
How about you come over here? Sudden death.
Kiss me, please? - Are you serious? - Oh - Please? - You come here.
Oh! Booyah! - You're kidding me.
- You're whipped, dude.
Gotta pay attention.
- Okay, yeah.
Well, wait till tonight.
- Focus.
And we'll see who's laughing tonight because What's tonight? Tonight is my birthday.
- Nope, it's not.
- Yeah, it is.
No.
It's next Tuesday.
How'd you know? Because I'm a loser and I looked it up.
Okay, fine.
It's my birthday week.
Oh, okay.
Gotcha.
- Birthday week.
- Yeah.
And it's gonna be lit! - Hey! What up? - All right.
- Gracias.
- Why, thank you.
Thanks, man.
Did you know that it's bad luck in certain cultures to refuse a toast? Dude, dude, dude, chill out.
She doesn't drink.
I know, and I don't wanna be a bad influence, so - Sure.
- Maybe I want to.
Yeah, dude, maybe she wants to.
Yeah, maybe she wants to.
Okay then.
To an awesome week! - All right! Cheers! - Salud! I really can't recommend discharging you today.
Well, sorry, doc, but I gotta get back to Nashville.
Then I'll arrange for the home health nurse to show you how to administer the antibiotics.
And you have to follow up immediately with a cardiologist in Nashville.
Whoa, whoa! This whole thing's not in my rearview mirror yet? You ever torn a muscle or broken a bone? Yeah.
Well, the same basic principles apply here, except we're talking about the most vital organ in your body.
Your ultrasound revealed something ambiguous on your mitral valve.
We're hoping this will be enough to heal it.
But it's also possible it will require surgery.
Surgery Possibly.
And, uh In the meantime as far as playing shows To be honest, you shouldn't even be thinking about that right now.
Give me something perfect I can hold onto real tight Give me just enough to make it through tonight Ooh You've been so high Never thought you'd be coming back down Never been sorry Are you sorry now You've been so broken Forgot what we were all about You've never been sorry Are you sorry now Hey, you guys see Bucky's email? No.
What's up? Well, we just been offered a slot at Music City Music Festival next week.
- Wow.
- Yeah.
It turns out Hillary Scott's gotta have vocal chord surgery.
So we're subbing in for Lady A.
In other words, we're like, we're headlining.
That sucks for Hillary.
But that's great for us.
You'll be back in action by then, right? Yeah.
I just gotta check in with a specialist at Vanderbilt.
But I feel ready to play already.
Well, there's no reason to rush it, man.
Says the guy who's trying to steal my vocals.
[chuckles.]
Well, surprise, surprise.
Look who's back.
Brad, I'm really hoping that we can talk reasonably about this.
Reasonably? That sounds great.
I'm just glad ol' Deacon's not here.
Look, if there's something about my relationship with him that upsets you, I would be - more than happy to talk about it.
- Oh, darlin'.
I'm asking that you not take that out on Jake Darlin', you are reading this all wrong.
I'm not upset in the least.
I'm worried about the safety of our son.
Brad, come on.
You and I both know that he's not - unsafe.
- Look, that the man's got a record? All sorts of violent and impulsive behavior? And that doesn't even include yesterday's assault, of course.
Deacon is incredibly sorry about what happened, and he would be willing to apologize to you about it.
Hmm.
I hear you, yeah, but I just don't feel comfortable exposing our son in that kind of dangerous environment.
Brad, I'm begging you.
Please don't make us go through this - again over this.
- Sorry, I'm sorry.
Look, you're the one that's making this all happen through your poor romantic choices.
I mean, I thought you'd learn to pick 'em better by now.
[chuckles.]
I mean, am I right? - Oh! - Oh, I'm so glad you're okay! Didn't think I'd get a welcome party.
Well, Gunnar was kind enough to let me know when y'all were getting back in.
You know, I can carry my own bag.
Nope.
I did my research.
You're not supposed to be physically exerting yourself at all right now.
To that end, I made you a cozy little spot here so you didn't have to deal with going up and down the stairs.
Oh, I was kind of looking forward to my actual bed.
They say after a heart attack, you really shouldn't It wasn't a heart attack.
It was a heart incident.
And I promise a few stairs is not gonna kill me.
- Oh - Oh, God! Will? You okay? Gotcha! [laughs.]
Well, his sense of humor is healthy.
Hmm.
Umm, okay.
We're going to get hot chicken at Hattie B's.
Oh, my God.
This is so stupid, dude.
- Just tell her, dude.
- Think bigger.
Okay.
Um We're going to take a rocket to Mars with Elon Musk.
Ha! I like it.
We should do that next year.
It should be next year's Hey, Maddie! It has to do with jersey that he never takes off Bro, be quiet! I give the clues! Hey, hey, hey! One rule.

So much better, actually.
You're gonna love it.
- Dude, is this the players' entrance? - Wait.
What? - They just give you the entire arena? - Yeah.
I mean, I did sell out back-to-back nights - here last March.
- Wow.
Try this on.
Ready? - No! - Isn't that cool? - Come on! That's amazing! - Isn't it? It's awesome.
Yo, where are the festivities? Yo, attention deficit disorder.
I'm literally texting the guy right now, okay? - [music plays.]
- Oh, that's what I like! - There they are.

Are you rolling? Watch your cable, come on.
- Hey, Avery? Avery.
- Hey, listen - Hey, Avery? - Where's Juliette? - On a trip.
She'll be back soon.
- How soon? Is it true that you flew to Bolivia - to try to convince her to come home? - Look, guys, I know you're just doing your jobs.
But I'm not saying anything more, okay? Is there any truth to the cult rumor? - Come on, Avery.
- Just one more question.
- [gasps.]
- Look who's home! - Come here, sweetie.
- Hey, baby girl.
Come here, come here.
She's been asking nonstop about Daddy and anyway.
Sorry you had her for so long.
Please, it's the least I can do.
Call me if you need anything, okay? - Okay.
- Okay.
Bye, Cadence.
I love you.
Come here.
Oh, it's so good to see you! Mommy? It's just me right now, sweetheart.
Just me.
- Oh, pancakes.
- Mm-hmm.
Ugh, cold pancakes.
Yeah, if you'd been up an hour ago, they would have been life-changing.
Well, I was out kind of late with Jonah for his birthday, so Believe me, I am well aware.
You were awake? This might be hard to comprehend.
But when you're a parent, it's hard to fall asleep - till your kids are all home.
- I'm 18, Dad.
Please! I know.
I'm well aware.
I'm trying to wait deal with it.
What? Are you playing any of your own music? Yeah.
What kind of question is that? I was just wondering if you've written a song in a while.
Okay, one, is that like your new favorite question? And, two, yesterday.
You wrote a song yesterday? - Yeah, really.
- What was that about? It was about how you're a wet blanket.
Well, that's actually a pretty rich area to mine, so Yeah.
There's like enough material for a whole album.
Stop it! Sarah said they reached second base.
But Micah said it was more like getting caught between first and second base.
- Eww.
- I know, right? Hey.
What's wrong with you? Nothing.
What's wrong with your face? Okay, obviously, you're having one of your spaz days.
So I'm just gonna choose to not be offended.
But I am here if you feel like talking.
Why don't you ask your stepdad? What? You haven't even heard? I know that I was given everything I could take From the moment I was living, I was dying to make Nothing out of something Or real out of fake It's hard days living in the world What do you think? We play it at the festival? Yeah, sure.
I don't know.
I gotta get back to Cadence.
We can talk about it later.
Okay.
Good seeing you.
Yeah.
[sighs.]
Just feels weird without Will.
Yeah.
[knocking on door.]
Yeah, come in! Zach? Hey.
What are you doin' here? Well, I wanted to head straight to New York but I was at this fundraiser in Napa when I heard.
And they said they'd already discharged you, so That's not really an answer.
I came because I care, Will.
And Because, I don't know, I I feel responsible.
I'm not sure I follow.
When you came to me and said you wanted to get back together, I Well, that was stupid.
I'm sorry I said it.
And, look, to be honest, I'd rather we not No, Will! I was stupid, okay? I'm I'm I'm not used to rejection, and I I shut down.
What makes you think that has anything to do with this? I don't know.
I don't.
You just seemed upset and then with Mark maybe I'm being egotistical.
In which case, I apologize again.
You still with him? No.
I watched your show on YouTube.
Mm, big heart-bursting moment.
No one can light up a stage like you can.
You're gonna be back out there soon.
I'm sure of it.
How's that? 'Cause you're not someone who lets something stand in between you and your heart.
[imitates rim shot.]
[chuckles.]
All right, well, I'll leave you alone and get outta your hair.
You mean to tell me you flew all the way to Nashville for a five-minute conversation? Well, you know, I am still an investor in Highway 65.
So I have a lot of other reasons to be in Nashville besides you, but I'll come back and check on you before I leave.
You gonna sit down and join us at some point? Or you just gonna hover like a vulture? Like a vulture.
Jonah's got this birthday thing tonight.
I thought that was last night.
- It's his birthday week.
- Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna resist the urge to comment on that.
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
Don't wait up.
You been quiet, missy.
You okay? Why does no one tell me anything? I was gonna tell you.
- Well, instead, Jake told me.
- I'm sorry about that.
Why would you fight with his dad? I guess because, if there's one thing I can't stand is when people are cruel to children.
Jake said he might not be allowed to see his mom.
And his dad's gonna try to make that happen.
Jessie and I are gonna try to make sure it doesn't.
We're already speaking with a lawyer.
"Nashville's Next" starts on Monday.
I'm aware.
Maybe I shouldn't do it.
Look, sweetie, all this stuff that happened, it shouldn't have anything to do with you, okay? You wanna do the show, you should do the show.
I wanna do it.
Well, then guess what? I got your back.
Okay.
You know, you don't always have to hightail it right after we do our thing.
We could just, I don't know Cuddle? Cuddle or order in Chinese or watch a movie.
Or bear with me.
I know it sounds crazy.
But you could always spend the night.
That does sound crazy.
Crazy enough, it just might work.
Uh, maybe.
Raincheck? You got something going on tonight? Yeah.
Okay.
We could make plans for later in the week like dinner or something.
Think you can handle that? I think I could handle that.
Yes.
Well, it is a date.
Everything all right? Yeah.
Don't worry your pretty little head.
I'll text you then! "From that day forward, Fernando always remembered "the importance of asking.
He was never without a playmate.
" Again - Again! - [sighs.]
Baby, we already read the book like three times.
Can you just try to close your eyes? Please? [laughs.]
[knocking.]
Who in the heck? Hi.
What are you doing here? Checking on you.
You gonna let me in? You could have called, you know? Yeah.
Well, you would have told me not to come.
How do you know? You're more of a martyr than a whiner.
I'm the same way, if it makes you feel any better.
I don't know if I have the energy to be a good host right now.
You don't have to be.
Just pour me a whiskey and I won't say a word.
CADENCE: Daddy? I gotta take care of that.
Go for it.
I've got my company.
[sighs.]
All right, to 22 years on this planet! Hopefully, I make it 22 more.
All right! I wanna dance! Let's dance! - I want to sit, okay.
- Funny.
- MADDIE: I'll go dance.
- I'll be there in a minute.
You should get this guy to keep you company.
- Yes, you should.
- No, no, no, no.
Yes.
- He's got legendary dance moves.
- Yes, let's go.
Dude, Jonah's just being a dick, Too bad.
It'll be fun, come on! Don't have too much fun.
Can't take my eyes off you Can't take my eyes off you Ooh, woo You got that irresistible - No.
- No? - No, I'm sorry, no.
- Okay, all right.
It's unbelievable Listen, this is like special.
- Because I don't usually dance, so - Okay.
Okay.
You're witnessing history right now.
[laughs.]
- [slow song plays.]
- I just want to touch See, now, I don't know how to dance with Come on, have fun.
It's never quite enough I just want to touch Had to get lost - What? - What? - What? - What? Every time I dial You ain't picking up You know I'm going crazy 'Cause it's been so long If it's a boat you need To cross the sea I'll build it And if the well inside you Ever runs dry I'll fill it [panting.]
Take whatever you need Rip my heart until it bleeds Tear me apart at the seams Until I shiver I'm the giver It's not like it's hard for me to handle Cadence.
I mean, I'm actually pretty good at it.
Guess you could say Juliette made me a pro.
How's that? She disappeared once before.
It's different circumstances, but And you took her back? Well, not right away, but, yeah.
She has a special power over you.
Admit it.
She does.
What is it about her? I don't know.
It's like It's like she has this fire in her that's kind of mesmerizing.
Till it burns you repeatedly.
[chuckles.]
It took longer than it should have, but I've learned my lesson.
There's no third act in this story.
[scoffs.]
- [clears throat.]
- What? Man plans and God laughs.
Oh, I'm serious.
I mean, there's no other option for me.
I'm jumping off the roller coaster once and for all.
The only hard part is it's just so Lonely, once you take the plunge.
Look, I'm not doubting myself.
It's just the routine, you know.
The The habits you fall into? Yes! Yes.
You know, like when you go to bed, you have a ritual with someone.
Brushing your teeth, talking about your day.
Warm breath on the back of your neck as you fall asleep.
Yeah.
Now each night I put Cadence down, I stare at the TV.
I don't even really know what I'm watching.
And just imagine these long nights stretched out in front of me, a desert.
Sorry.
This is stupid.
It's not.
Okay.
Weak, at least.
Not being able to be alone.
Well, I think the whole "learn to be with yourself" thing is highly overrated.
In my experience, the only way that you truly get over someone is with someone else.
[sighs.]
Is that what Gunnar is? No.
Gunnar's just nice.
All right, that's enough.
Get up.
We're gonna dance it out.
What? - [rock music plays.]
- Is none of your business When I'm around you This was me at 17 and angsty.
I swallow the instinct Hey! No laughing if you're still sitting on your ass! Come on! I'm telling you, it works! Do you think you know Do you think you know better? Come on! What did you think of me when I first joined the band? Come on.
Out with it.
I guess you confused me.
Huh.
I mean, you're hard to read.
Not like anyone I'd ever met.
Well, I could say something similar about you.
Really? How? You don't look at me like other guys.
How do other guys look at you? Like something they wanna own.
I should, um I should get some sleep.
Not that I'll be able to, but Why don't you just close your eyes? And what'll you do? Be here.
Hey.
Uh, hey.
You didn't have to sleep on the floor.
I didn't mean to sleep here at all.
Yeah.
Uh, do you want coffee or I should probably just get going.
Yeah, okay.
I envy you.
Why? You got a great bed head.
Hey, um Thanks.
Thanks for coming over.
Of course.
Come on, girls! Before it gets cold! Let's get this train rolling! There's one.
Where's your sister? She said she's coming.
Well, good, 'cause I don't wanna get there and find that Radnor Lake parking lot all full.
Wouldn't that be a shame? Oh, come on now.
You love hiking.
Hey! Hot this time, bacon.
We're good.
Oh, listen.
Make sure you got good shoes.
You got hiking boots? - Why? - We're hiking.
All right? We're gonna be up on the trails.
We're not gonna stay down by the lake.
We're gonna walk up on the trails and everything.
Okay.
You okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
My stomach just doesn't feel good.
It must have been like something I ate.
I don't know.
Can I talk to you a second, please? What? Why? Upstairs, right now.
- I had one drink, okay? - One drink? You don't think I know what a hangover looks like, young lady, huh? Maddie, what the hell is the matter with you? I was just having fun with my friends! - That's it! - You need to find a new way! Or maybe you need to find some new damn friends! - How about that? - What are you talking about? It's dangerous, baby! It's irresponsible! You're not old enough to be drinking! - I'm 18! - The drinking age is 21! - I am an adult! - Not in this house, you're not! Then maybe I should move out! [crying.]
I'm sorry for yelling, honey.
I am.
I just Baby, if you're anything like me I don't gotta tell you what it did to my life.
Years I lost with your mom.
Years I lost with you.
If there's even a fraction of a chance that you're like me, baby, I just I'll be careful.
- Promise? - Yes.
Great.
[sighs.]
What? I've just been thinking maybe it's time that I get my own place.
Because of all this, baby? I'm sorry No, it's not 'cause of all this.
It's something I've been thinking about for a while now.
Can you do me a favor? Think about it just a little bit more.
You need to get away a little bit, go over to Scarlett's.
Hang out there for a while.
All right.
Thank you.
Knock-knock.
Hey, partner.
Hey.
All heart-healthy options, I guess? Yeah.
Just came over to see how you're doing.
Great.
Stronger every day.
Yeah? 'Cause it kind of seemed like maybe you're trying to put on a show for some of us last time I saw you.
Well, what do you want me to say, Scarlett? I feel weak, angry.
My heart's messed up, maybe for good.
And I won't be performing, not for a long time.
You're gonna get that back there.
I promise you.
Just maybe now is the time to focus on other things like writing maybe? - [chuckles.]
- What? - You're a writer, Gunnar's a writer.
- You're also a writer.
No.
I sing and shake my hips onstage.
- You've written plenty of songs.
- It's not what I'm good at! I'm a showman.
That's my thing.
And I can't do it anymore.
There are people out there who are completely paralyzed and they learn to communicate by blinking.
And people who are deaf who write symphonies and stuff Well, I'm sorry for just taking a moment to feel upset.
No, it's okay to be upset.
It's good to be upset.
It's better than the charade you were putting on before.
You gotta do something with it, you know? - You have no idea what it's like.
- No, I don't.
But I do now that you got hands and you got a brain.
So you should use them.
Here.
I couldn't find my favorite writing pens at the store so I ordered you some online.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
I barely touched the guy, all right? I just took his hands off Jake.
I put him against the wall.
That was it.
And I can testify to that.
That's exactly what happened.
I'm sure it is, but, of course, you're an interested party.
Well, yeah, but so is he, right? Right.
I'm just saying there are no impartial witnesses here.
I don't even know what that means.
I'm just saying that I was just trying to stop him from hurting the boy.
That's all I was doing.
Has Mr.
Maitland ever been physically abusive? Well, he's Not physically, no.
Do you have reason to believe he was going to hurt your son that day? [sighs.]
Frankly, just looking at this on paper doesn't seem promising.
So what does that mean? In these kinds of situations, the court is going to draw on whatever records it can in assessing Mr.
Maitland's claim that you are prone to violent behavior.
And just looking at these court records for you, Deacon, past charges of assault and battery, several drunk and disorderly All of that, all of it was a long time ago.
All right? That is behind me.
That may be, but at the end of the day, these records paint a picture.
And I'm afraid it's one a judge may find more consistent with Mr.
Maitland's story than with yours.
You can't lose Jake.
That's the main thing.
The only way Brad can take him from you is by linking you and me, so Just tell the court that we're not seeing each other anymore.
And then we don't see each other.
And that's what you want? No, I don't want it.
It's the only way I can see to put things right.
So if it's what we got to do, it's what we got to do.
This is nice, going out like this.
Yeah.
I hear this Broccolini is killer.
No, I hear the cauliflower is worth dying for.
Are you making fun of me? I'm making fun of this restaurant.
[cell phone chimes.]
Geez, another mention! This band is blowing up, in case you hadn't noticed.
I kind of noticed.
What the heck is this? [sighs.]
I went over there to check on him.
You stayed the night? I crashed there on the floor.
That's all you gotta say about it, huh? There's nothing else to say.
You know, fine.
I'm just gonna go talk to Avery about it.
Gunnar Hey, man, what's up? You knew how much I liked her.
But you did it anyway! What? Hey, hold on a second.
What Oh, what? So you don't know what I'm talking about? Yeah, I got a guess, but nothing happened between us.
We just fell asleep.
Oh, that's cute! What? You cuddle? Gunnar, okay.
Take a breath.
Let's just take this someplace else.
No, no.
I wanna have this out right here! I'm not gonna fight you if that's what you're looking for.
Well, too bad, because I'm coming for you! - Hey, hey, hey! Dude, look! - Come on! You gotta just chill I'm sorry.
Damn it! - Dude, you okay? - Yes! Yeah.
Does it feel broken? You like her, don't you? For the last time, nothing happened.
You can't go.
Daph, it's just a couple of days at Scarlett's.
- And you're gonna get your own place.
- I don't know.
I mean, I could change my mind and decide not to.
Can you just wait a little longer? Why? You just can't leave me here alone! Please! Daph, no matter what I'm never leaving you.
I'll see you all the time.
It's different.
It's not the same.
I know it's different.
But it's gonna be different in a good - Hey.
- Hey.
You said you want to see me? [sighs.]
Something just doesn't feel right.
- This isn't right.
- Well, I agree.
I mean, before all this stuff happened, we were good, right? Or am I just crazy? - You're not crazy.
- Then what are we doing? - What we have to do.
- Well, that can't be it! That just cannot be it! Jessie, he's not gonna I am so angry that this man keeps finding ways to control my life! I hate that he has this power over me! [crying.]
- Jessie - And I just really don't wanna lose you.
I don't want to lose you either.
Well, let's just fight.
Okay.
How? I honestly have no idea.
I hadn't gotten that far.
[both laugh.]
I've done some things that I ain't proud of I've done some things that I regret And the more I think about it all The more it all makes sense There ain't no use in trying To cover up my tracks Once you face the fire you started There ain't no going back When it comes to me and you It's so hard to face the truth Maybe it's just my turn To feel the table spin And finally get a taste of My own medicine Maybe it's a blessing, maybe it's a curse Maybe it's the lesson Nobody wants to have to learn - Maybe it's just my turn - [crying.]
What are you doing? I'm not going.
Maddie, you can't stay just because I want you to.
I know.
What if I can't leave you guys? I knew you couldn't go.
- Okay.
- You love my pancakes, right? - No.
Definitely not.
- No.
That's not it.
- That's really not.
- Not that! - Nope, not the one.
- That's not.
[laughing.]
- Next on "Nashville" - [Laughing.]
We have a special guest.
[cheering.]
I didn't expect it to feel so good up there.
That might have been the start of something beautiful.
Oh.
It means we go to war.
We put your boy on the stand.
I can't do that.
So that's it.
[sobbing.]
Let me ask you something.
Are you an artist? Please stop telling me that I'm too young to write about what I'm feeling.
[cheering.]
- He's sending me to boarding school.
- Let go of him, Brad! Stop it! - [groans.]
Did you just assault me? So when I call your name please come join me here up front.
Daphne Conrad.
I went down there and saw a completely different person.
Certainly wasn't Juliette.
I don't know what's wrong, I can usually do more.
How much does Will hate me? He doesn't hate you.
He's just sensitive right now.
- Please welcome The Last Highways.
- [cheering.]
- Somebody, come on! - Call 911! [woman over PA.]
We don't know.
Nobody's telling us anything.
They're running a bunch of tests trying to figure it out.
[cell phone chimes.]
Yeah.
[mumbling.]
Another mention.
The internet loves a good heart attack.
Wow.
New record for crass.
Will would laugh.
He likes puns.
Thanks.
We'll keep you posted.
Okay.
Deacon sends his prayers.
Says if there's anything we need So, your friend has a serious infection.
But we've started him on broad spectrum antibiotics and he should improve quickly.
Infection? The EMTs thought it was a heart attack.
It looked like one.
And it could have been just as dangerous but it's likely an infection of the heart's inner lining.
Something we call Endocarditis.
Are any of you aware he was using needles, injecting steroids? What? No.
Um, once, yeah.
A few months ago, he said it was human growth hormone.
Is he gonna be okay? He should be, but he needs rest.
It might be good if you guys go and do the same.
You can come see him first thing in the morning.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Yep.
[sighs.]
How's Will doing? The last report I got, he's doing much better.
- Good.
- Yeah, it is.
- Thank you.
- Here.
Hey, I just wanted to say I'm sorry, you know, about what happened.
I just I know, I know.
It's fine.
Well, it's not fine.
And I feel like you still got something to say so I just wish you'd say it.
Look, Deacon, I I get why you did what you did.
I really do.
It's just it's gonna make things a lot worse.
I know.
I'm sorry, okay? It was just a split second thing.
And I just reacted I get it, honestly.
It's taken me years to learn not to react to him.
You know how much I care about Jake.
I know.
And I'm sure on top of that, I was flashing back to my own dad and to things that he would do.
I get it.
You don't think I wanna punch him in the neck every time I see him? I'll let you handle the heavy hitting next time, okay? Okay.
Thanks.
[knocking on door.]
Hi.
Excuse me.
Are you Jessie Caine? I am, yeah.
You've been served.
Sorry.
What does it say? He's suing me for full custody.
What can I do? Nothing.
I just I need to make some phone calls right now, okay? Yeah.
You make them.
Hey.
Hey, buddy.
You guys just watching me sleep? Yeah.
You were snoring pretty good there.
- Was I? - How are you feeling, man? Oh, like a thousand bucks.
Seriously, though, I'm gonna take this IV home with me and use it for my hangovers.
Steroids? Really, Will? What were you thinking? Guess I was just hankering for some adult acne and mood swings, you know.
It's just so stupid.
- Gunnar - No! I mean, why not? He He could have Gunnar's right.
It was stupid.
But you already knew that about me.
Anyway, I'm sorry for everything I put you guys through.
Especially the mood swings.
[cell phone rings.]
I should probably Oh, yeah, take it, yeah.
I'm not gonna die.
[cell phone rings.]
- Avery Barkley? - Yeah.
Who's calling? April Levine from the Global Examiner.
I'm writing a feature on Juliette Barnes' mysterious absence from the public eye.
How did you get this number? I'm told she's joined a cult and fled the country.
Care to comment? She's on a service trip.
She'll be back soon.
And what exactly was the purpose of your flight to Bolivia the other week? It seems like a long way to travel just to say hi.
My purpose was private, okay? And if you have any respect for that, you won't publish this crap.
I was taking requests for a coffee run.
Didn't mean to intrude.
It's okay.
You sure? Just tell the guys I've got to run an errand.
Okay.
Oh! Get checked! No, get checked! - MADDIE: Hi, guys! - Against the boards! Hey, come here.
How about you come over here? Sudden death.
Kiss me, please? - Are you serious? - Oh - Please? - You come here.
Oh! Booyah! - You're kidding me.
- You're whipped, dude.
Gotta pay attention.
- Okay, yeah.
Well, wait till tonight.
- Focus.
And we'll see who's laughing tonight because What's tonight? Tonight is my birthday.
- Nope, it's not.
- Yeah, it is.
No.
It's next Tuesday.
How'd you know? Because I'm a loser and I looked it up.
Okay, fine.
It's my birthday week.
Oh, okay.
Gotcha.
- Birthday week.
- Yeah.
And it's gonna be lit! - Hey! What up? - All right.
- Gracias.
- Why, thank you.
Thanks, man.
Did you know that it's bad luck in certain cultures to refuse a toast? Dude, dude, dude, chill out.
She doesn't drink.
I know, and I don't wanna be a bad influence, so - Sure.
- Maybe I want to.
Yeah, dude, maybe she wants to.
Yeah, maybe she wants to.
Okay then.
To an awesome week! - All right! Cheers! - Salud! I really can't recommend discharging you today.
Well, sorry, doc, but I gotta get back to Nashville.
Then I'll arrange for the home health nurse to show you how to administer the antibiotics.
And you have to follow up immediately with a cardiologist in Nashville.
Whoa, whoa! This whole thing's not in my rearview mirror yet? You ever torn a muscle or broken a bone? Yeah.
Well, the same basic principles apply here, except we're talking about the most vital organ in your body.
Your ultrasound revealed something ambiguous on your mitral valve.
We're hoping this will be enough to heal it.
But it's also possible it will require surgery.
Surgery Possibly.
And, uh In the meantime as far as playing shows To be honest, you shouldn't even be thinking about that right now.
Give me something perfect I can hold onto real tight Give me just enough to make it through tonight Ooh You've been so high Never thought you'd be coming back down Never been sorry Are you sorry now You've been so broken Forgot what we were all about You've never been sorry Are you sorry now Hey, you guys see Bucky's email? No.
What's up? Well, we just been offered a slot at Music City Music Festival next week.
- Wow.
- Yeah.
It turns out Hillary Scott's gotta have vocal chord surgery.
So we're subbing in for Lady A.
In other words, we're like, we're headlining.
That sucks for Hillary.
But that's great for us.
You'll be back in action by then, right? Yeah.
I just gotta check in with a specialist at Vanderbilt.
But I feel ready to play already.
Well, there's no reason to rush it, man.
Says the guy who's trying to steal my vocals.
[chuckles.]
Well, surprise, surprise.
Look who's back.
Brad, I'm really hoping that we can talk reasonably about this.
Reasonably? That sounds great.
I'm just glad ol' Deacon's not here.
Look, if there's something about my relationship with him that upsets you, I would be - more than happy to talk about it.
- Oh, darlin'.
I'm asking that you not take that out on Jake Darlin', you are reading this all wrong.
I'm not upset in the least.
I'm worried about the safety of our son.
Brad, come on.
You and I both know that he's not - unsafe.
- Look, that the man's got a record? All sorts of violent and impulsive behavior? And that doesn't even include yesterday's assault, of course.
Deacon is incredibly sorry about what happened, and he would be willing to apologize to you about it.
Hmm.
I hear you, yeah, but I just don't feel comfortable exposing our son in that kind of dangerous environment.
Brad, I'm begging you.
Please don't make us go through this - again over this.
- Sorry, I'm sorry.
Look, you're the one that's making this all happen through your poor romantic choices.
I mean, I thought you'd learn to pick 'em better by now.
[chuckles.]
I mean, am I right? - Oh! - Oh, I'm so glad you're okay! Didn't think I'd get a welcome party.
Well, Gunnar was kind enough to let me know when y'all were getting back in.
You know, I can carry my own bag.
Nope.
I did my research.
You're not supposed to be physically exerting yourself at all right now.
To that end, I made you a cozy little spot here so you didn't have to deal with going up and down the stairs.
Oh, I was kind of looking forward to my actual bed.
They say after a heart attack, you really shouldn't It wasn't a heart attack.
It was a heart incident.
And I promise a few stairs is not gonna kill me.
- Oh - Oh, God! Will? You okay? Gotcha! [laughs.]
Well, his sense of humor is healthy.
Hmm.
Umm, okay.
We're going to get hot chicken at Hattie B's.
Oh, my God.
This is so stupid, dude.
- Just tell her, dude.
- Think bigger.
Okay.
Um We're going to take a rocket to Mars with Elon Musk.
Ha! I like it.
We should do that next year.
It should be next year's Hey, Maddie! It has to do with jersey that he never takes off Bro, be quiet! I give the clues! Hey, hey, hey! One rule.
- No hitting the driver, remember? - I give the clues! Are we going to a Predators game? Close, but even better.
So much better, actually.
You're gonna love it.
- Dude, is this the players' entrance? - Wait.
What? - They just give you the entire arena? - Yeah.
I mean, I did sell out back-to-back nights - here last March.
- Wow.
Try this on.
Ready? - No! - Isn't that cool? - Come on! That's amazing! - Isn't it? It's awesome.
Yo, where are the festivities? Yo, attention deficit disorder.
I'm literally texting the guy right now, okay? - [music plays.]
- Oh, that's what I like! - There they are.
- That's awesome! Come out on the ice, let's crush it, bro! - You're not coming out - Oh, God, you're so dead! - [hip-hop music plays.]

Are you rolling? Watch your cable, come on.
- Hey, Avery? Avery.
- Hey, listen - Hey, Avery? - Where's Juliette? - On a trip.
She'll be back soon.
- How soon? Is it true that you flew to Bolivia - to try to convince her to come home? - Look, guys, I know you're just doing your jobs.
But I'm not saying anything more, okay? Is there any truth to the cult rumor? - Come on, Avery.
- Just one more question.
- [gasps.]
- Look who's home! - Come here, sweetie.
- Hey, baby girl.
Come here, come here.
She's been asking nonstop about Daddy and anyway.
Sorry you had her for so long.
Please, it's the least I can do.
Call me if you need anything, okay? - Okay.
- Okay.
Bye, Cadence.
I love you.
Come here.
Oh, it's so good to see you! Mommy? It's just me right now, sweetheart.
Just me.
- Oh, pancakes.
- Mm-hmm.
Ugh, cold pancakes.
Yeah, if you'd been up an hour ago, they would have been life-changing.
Well, I was out kind of late with Jonah for his birthday, so Believe me, I am well aware.
You were awake? This might be hard to comprehend.
But when you're a parent, it's hard to fall asleep - till your kids are all home.
- I'm 18, Dad.
Please! I know.
I'm well aware.
I'm trying to wait deal with it.
What? Are you playing any of your own music? Yeah.
What kind of question is that? I was just wondering if you've written a song in a while.
Okay, one, is that like your new favorite question? And, two, yesterday.
You wrote a song yesterday? - Yeah, really.
- What was that about? It was about how you're a wet blanket.
Well, that's actually a pretty rich area to mine, so Yeah.
There's like enough material for a whole album.
Stop it! Sarah said they reached second base.
But Micah said it was more like getting caught between first and second base.
- Eww.
- I know, right? Hey.
What's wrong with you? Nothing.
What's wrong with your face? Okay, obviously, you're having one of your spaz days.
So I'm just gonna choose to not be offended.
But I am here if you feel like talking.
Why don't you ask your stepdad? What? You haven't even heard? I know that I was given everything I could take From the moment I was living, I was dying to make Nothing out of something Or real out of fake It's hard days living in the world What do you think? We play it at the festival? Yeah, sure.
I don't know.
I gotta get back to Cadence.
We can talk about it later.
Okay.
Good seeing you.
Yeah.
[sighs.]
Just feels weird without Will.
Yeah.
[knocking on door.]
Yeah, come in! Zach? Hey.
What are you doin' here? Well, I wanted to head straight to New York but I was at this fundraiser in Napa when I heard.
And they said they'd already discharged you, so That's not really an answer.
I came because I care, Will.
And Because, I don't know, I I feel responsible.
I'm not sure I follow.
When you came to me and said you wanted to get back together, I Well, that was stupid.
I'm sorry I said it.
And, look, to be honest, I'd rather we not No, Will! I was stupid, okay? I'm I'm I'm not used to rejection, and I I shut down.
What makes you think that has anything to do with this? I don't know.
I don't.
You just seemed upset and then with Mark maybe I'm being egotistical.
In which case, I apologize again.
You still with him? No.
I watched your show on YouTube.
Mm, big heart-bursting moment.
No one can light up a stage like you can.
You're gonna be back out there soon.
I'm sure of it.
How's that? 'Cause you're not someone who lets something stand in between you and your heart.
[imitates rim shot.]
[chuckles.]
All right, well, I'll leave you alone and get outta your hair.
You mean to tell me you flew all the way to Nashville for a five-minute conversation? Well, you know, I am still an investor in Highway 65.
So I have a lot of other reasons to be in Nashville besides you, but I'll come back and check on you before I leave.
You gonna sit down and join us at some point? Or you just gonna hover like a vulture? Like a vulture.
Jonah's got this birthday thing tonight.
I thought that was last night.
- It's his birthday week.
- Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna resist the urge to comment on that.
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
Don't wait up.
You been quiet, missy.
You okay? Why does no one tell me anything? I was gonna tell you.
- Well, instead, Jake told me.
- I'm sorry about that.
Why would you fight with his dad? I guess because, if there's one thing I can't stand is when people are cruel to children.
Jake said he might not be allowed to see his mom.
And his dad's gonna try to make that happen.
Jessie and I are gonna try to make sure it doesn't.
We're already speaking with a lawyer.
"Nashville's Next" starts on Monday.
I'm aware.
Maybe I shouldn't do it.
Look, sweetie, all this stuff that happened, it shouldn't have anything to do with you, okay? You wanna do the show, you should do the show.
I wanna do it.
Well, then guess what? I got your back.
Okay.
You know, you don't always have to hightail it right after we do our thing.
We could just, I don't know Cuddle? Cuddle or order in Chinese or watch a movie.
Or bear with me.
I know it sounds crazy.
But you could always spend the night.
That does sound crazy.
Crazy enough, it just might work.
Uh, maybe.
Raincheck? You got something going on tonight? Yeah.
Okay.
We could make plans for later in the week like dinner or something.
Think you can handle that? I think I could handle that.
Yes.
Well, it is a date.
Everything all right? Yeah.
Don't worry your pretty little head.
I'll text you then! "From that day forward, Fernando always remembered "the importance of asking.
He was never without a playmate.
" Again - Again! - [sighs.]
Baby, we already read the book like three times.
Can you just try to close your eyes? Please? [laughs.]
[knocking.]
Who in the heck? Hi.
What are you doing here? Checking on you.
You gonna let me in? You could have called, you know? Yeah.
Well, you would have told me not to come.
How do you know? You're more of a martyr than a whiner.
I'm the same way, if it makes you feel any better.
I don't know if I have the energy to be a good host right now.
You don't have to be.
Just pour me a whiskey and I won't say a word.
CADENCE: Daddy? I gotta take care of that.
Go for it.
I've got my company.
[sighs.]
All right, to 22 years on this planet! Hopefully, I make it 22 more.
All right! I wanna dance! Let's dance! - I want to sit, okay.
- Funny.
- MADDIE: I'll go dance.
- I'll be there in a minute.
You should get this guy to keep you company.
- Yes, you should.
- No, no, no, no.
Yes.
- He's got legendary dance moves.
- Yes, let's go.
Dude, Jonah's just being a dick, Too bad.
It'll be fun, come on! Don't have too much fun.
Can't take my eyes off you Can't take my eyes off you Ooh, woo You got that irresistible - No.
- No? - No, I'm sorry, no.
- Okay, all right.
It's unbelievable Listen, this is like special.
- Because I don't usually dance, so - Okay.
Okay.
You're witnessing history right now.
[laughs.]
- [slow song plays.]
- I just want to touch See, now, I don't know how to dance with Come on, have fun.
It's never quite enough I just want to touch Had to get lost - What? - What? - What? - What? Every time I dial You ain't picking up You know I'm going crazy 'Cause it's been so long If it's a boat you need To cross the sea I'll build it And if the well inside you Ever runs dry I'll fill it [panting.]
Take whatever you need Rip my heart until it bleeds Tear me apart at the seams Until I shiver I'm the giver It's not like it's hard for me to handle Cadence.
I mean, I'm actually pretty good at it.
Guess you could say Juliette made me a pro.
How's that? She disappeared once before.
It's different circumstances, but And you took her back? Well, not right away, but, yeah.
She has a special power over you.
Admit it.
She does.
What is it about her? I don't know.
It's like It's like she has this fire in her that's kind of mesmerizing.
Till it burns you repeatedly.
[chuckles.]
It took longer than it should have, but I've learned my lesson.
There's no third act in this story.
[scoffs.]
- [clears throat.]
- What? Man plans and God laughs.
Oh, I'm serious.
I mean, there's no other option for me.
I'm jumping off the roller coaster once and for all.
The only hard part is it's just so Lonely, once you take the plunge.
Look, I'm not doubting myself.
It's just the routine, you know.
The The habits you fall into? Yes! Yes.
You know, like when you go to bed, you have a ritual with someone.
Brushing your teeth, talking about your day.
Warm breath on the back of your neck as you fall asleep.
Yeah.
Now each night I put Cadence down, I stare at the TV.
I don't even really know what I'm watching.
And just imagine these long nights stretched out in front of me, a desert.
Sorry.
This is stupid.
It's not.
Okay.
Weak, at least.
Not being able to be alone.
Well, I think the whole "learn to be with yourself" thing is highly overrated.
In my experience, the only way that you truly get over someone is with someone else.
[sighs.]
Is that what Gunnar is? No.
Gunnar's just nice.
All right, that's enough.
Get up.
We're gonna dance it out.
What? - [rock music plays.]
- Is none of your business When I'm around you This was me at 17 and angsty.
I swallow the instinct Hey! No laughing if you're still sitting on your ass! Come on! I'm telling you, it works! Do you think you know Do you think you know better? Come on! What did you think of me when I first joined the band? Come on.
Out with it.
I guess you confused me.
Huh.
I mean, you're hard to read.
Not like anyone I'd ever met.
Well, I could say something similar about you.
Really? How? You don't look at me like other guys.
How do other guys look at you? Like something they wanna own.
I should, um I should get some sleep.
Not that I'll be able to, but Why don't you just close your eyes? And what'll you do? Be here.
Hey.
Uh, hey.
You didn't have to sleep on the floor.
I didn't mean to sleep here at all.
Yeah.
Uh, do you want coffee or I should probably just get going.
Yeah, okay.
I envy you.
Why? You got a great bed head.
Hey, um Thanks.
Thanks for coming over.
Of course.
Come on, girls! Before it gets cold! Let's get this train rolling! There's one.
Where's your sister? She said she's coming.
Well, good, 'cause I don't wanna get there and find that Radnor Lake parking lot all full.
Wouldn't that be a shame? Oh, come on now.
You love hiking.
Hey! Hot this time, bacon.
We're good.
Oh, listen.
Make sure you got good shoes.
You got hiking boots? - Why? - We're hiking.
All right? We're gonna be up on the trails.
We're not gonna stay down by the lake.
We're gonna walk up on the trails and everything.
Okay.
You okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
My stomach just doesn't feel good.
It must have been like something I ate.
I don't know.
Can I talk to you a second, please? What? Why? Upstairs, right now.
- I had one drink, okay? - One drink? You don't think I know what a hangover looks like, young lady, huh? Maddie, what the hell is the matter with you? I was just having fun with my friends! - That's it! - You need to find a new way! Or maybe you need to find some new damn friends! - How about that? - What are you talking about? It's dangerous, baby! It's irresponsible! You're not old enough to be drinking! - I'm 18! - The drinking age is 21! - I am an adult! - Not in this house, you're not! Then maybe I should move out! [crying.]
I'm sorry for yelling, honey.
I am.
I just Baby, if you're anything like me I don't gotta tell you what it did to my life.
Years I lost with your mom.
Years I lost with you.
If there's even a fraction of a chance that you're like me, baby, I just I'll be careful.
- Promise? - Yes.
Great.
[sighs.]
What? I've just been thinking maybe it's time that I get my own place.
Because of all this, baby? I'm sorry No, it's not 'cause of all this.
It's something I've been thinking about for a while now.
Can you do me a favor? Think about it just a little bit more.
You need to get away a little bit, go over to Scarlett's.
Hang out there for a while.
All right.
Thank you.
Knock-knock.
Hey, partner.
Hey.
All heart-healthy options, I guess? Yeah.
Just came over to see how you're doing.
Great.
Stronger every day.
Yeah? 'Cause it kind of seemed like maybe you're trying to put on a show for some of us last time I saw you.
Well, what do you want me to say, Scarlett? I feel weak, angry.
My heart's messed up, maybe for good.
And I won't be performing, not for a long time.
You're gonna get that back there.
I promise you.
Just maybe now is the time to focus on other things like writing maybe? - [chuckles.]
- What? - You're a writer, Gunnar's a writer.
- You're also a writer.
No.
I sing and shake my hips onstage.
- You've written plenty of songs.
- It's not what I'm good at! I'm a showman.
That's my thing.
And I can't do it anymore.
There are people out there who are completely paralyzed and they learn to communicate by blinking.
And people who are deaf who write symphonies and stuff Well, I'm sorry for just taking a moment to feel upset.
No, it's okay to be upset.
It's good to be upset.
It's better than the charade you were putting on before.
You gotta do something with it, you know? - You have no idea what it's like.
- No, I don't.
But I do now that you got hands and you got a brain.
So you should use them.
Here.
I couldn't find my favorite writing pens at the store so I ordered you some online.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
I barely touched the guy, all right? I just took his hands off Jake.
I put him against the wall.
That was it.
And I can testify to that.
That's exactly what happened.
I'm sure it is, but, of course, you're an interested party.
Well, yeah, but so is he, right? Right.
I'm just saying there are no impartial witnesses here.
I don't even know what that means.
I'm just saying that I was just trying to stop him from hurting the boy.
That's all I was doing.
Has Mr.
Maitland ever been physically abusive? Well, he's Not physically, no.
Do you have reason to believe he was going to hurt your son that day? [sighs.]
Frankly, just looking at this on paper doesn't seem promising.
So what does that mean? In these kinds of situations, the court is going to draw on whatever records it can in assessing Mr.
Maitland's claim that you are prone to violent behavior.
And just looking at these court records for you, Deacon, past charges of assault and battery, several drunk and disorderly All of that, all of it was a long time ago.
All right? That is behind me.
That may be, but at the end of the day, these records paint a picture.
And I'm afraid it's one a judge may find more consistent with Mr.
Maitland's story than with yours.
You can't lose Jake.
That's the main thing.
The only way Brad can take him from you is by linking you and me, so Just tell the court that we're not seeing each other anymore.
And then we don't see each other.
And that's what you want? No, I don't want it.
It's the only way I can see to put things right.
So if it's what we got to do, it's what we got to do.
This is nice, going out like this.
Yeah.
I hear this Broccolini is killer.
No, I hear the cauliflower is worth dying for.
Are you making fun of me? I'm making fun of this restaurant.
[cell phone chimes.]
Geez, another mention! This band is blowing up, in case you hadn't noticed.
I kind of noticed.
What the heck is this? [sighs.]
I went over there to check on him.
You stayed the night? I crashed there on the floor.
That's all you gotta say about it, huh? There's nothing else to say.
You know, fine.
I'm just gonna go talk to Avery about it.
Gunnar Hey, man, what's up? You knew how much I liked her.
But you did it anyway! What? Hey, hold on a second.
What Oh, what? So you don't know what I'm talking about? Yeah, I got a guess, but nothing happened between us.
We just fell asleep.
Oh, that's cute! What? You cuddle? Gunnar, okay.
Take a breath.
Let's just take this someplace else.
No, no.
I wanna have this out right here! I'm not gonna fight you if that's what you're looking for.
Well, too bad, because I'm coming for you! - Hey, hey, hey! Dude, look! - Come on! You gotta just chill I'm sorry.
Damn it! - Dude, you okay? - Yes! Yeah.
Does it feel broken? You like her, don't you? For the last time, nothing happened.
You can't go.
Daph, it's just a couple of days at Scarlett's.
- And you're gonna get your own place.
- I don't know.
I mean, I could change my mind and decide not to.
Can you just wait a little longer? Why? You just can't leave me here alone! Please! Daph, no matter what I'm never leaving you.
I'll see you all the time.
It's different.
It's not the same.
I know it's different.
But it's gonna be different in a good - Hey.
- Hey.
You said you want to see me? [sighs.]
Something just doesn't feel right.
- This isn't right.
- Well, I agree.
I mean, before all this stuff happened, we were good, right? Or am I just crazy? - You're not crazy.
- Then what are we doing? - What we have to do.
- Well, that can't be it! That just cannot be it! Jessie, he's not gonna I am so angry that this man keeps finding ways to control my life! I hate that he has this power over me! [crying.]
- Jessie - And I just really don't wanna lose you.
I don't want to lose you either.
Well, let's just fight.
Okay.
How? I honestly have no idea.
I hadn't gotten that far.
[both laugh.]
I've done some things that I ain't proud of I've done some things that I regret And the more I think about it all The more it all makes sense There ain't no use in trying To cover up my tracks Once you face the fire you started There ain't no going back When it comes to me and you It's so hard to face the truth Maybe it's just my turn To feel the table spin And finally get a taste of My own medicine Maybe it's a blessing, maybe it's a curse Maybe it's the lesson Nobody wants to have to learn - Maybe it's just my turn - [crying.]
What are you doing? I'm not going.
Maddie, you can't stay just because I want you to.
I know.
What if I can't leave you guys? I knew you couldn't go.
- Okay.
- You love my pancakes, right? - No.
Definitely not.
- No.
That's not it.
- That's really not.
- Not that! - Nope, not the one.
- That's not.
[laughing.]
- Next on "Nashville" - [Laughing.]
We have a special guest.
[cheering.]
I didn't expect it to feel so good up there.
That might have been the start of something beautiful.
Oh.
It means we go to war.
We put your boy on the stand.
I can't do that.
So that's it.
[sobbing.]
Let me ask you something.
Are you an artist? Please stop telling me that I'm too young to write about what I'm feeling.
[cheering.]
