Previously on Nashville...
Deacon proposed to me.
Why can't you just let her be happy?
Sorry, I'm late. I love you.
- What is going on with you? - I wanted Mom to marry Deacon.
- This is for my wife. - I can't just pretend to be happy.
And you're still an artist. You can't drive away from your problems either.
You should go. I can stand the sight of you.
Thank so much for seeing me.
- The producers, they loved you. - I don't feel good.
Then we'll get your doctor over here to check you out.
You're pregnant.
Here it is.
Future home of Highway 65.
We are real excited about it.
Yeah, yeah. Things certainly seem to be changing for you.
With your engagement to Luke Wheeler,
you're in the spotlight like never before.
Well, she's been in a lot of spotlights.
You know, this is actually the, uh, fifth time
that she's launched an album at no. 1.
And, of course, with her track record,
she's probably gonna be at the top of the charts for a while.
Rayna, throw my readers a little scoop.
When is the wedding?
Oh. I mean, we haven't even set a date yet, so, you know...
Okay, well, what did Luke whisper to you onstage
the night he proposed?
Isn't that the point of whispering...
supposed to be a secret?
Chuck, come on, when we set up the interview four weeks ago,
it was to talk about the album.
Yeah, but when we agreed to this interview four weeks ago,
Luke hadn't proposed.
Come on, Rayna.
All the years we've known each other,
I'm... I'm not asking for the exclusive.
I'm just asking for a little something.
Well, I'll talk to you till the cows come home
about the new record, new label, new place.
Look, I just want to ensure
this gets good positioning in the magazine.
I can't guarantee anything
unless I get a scoop about you and Luke.
Well, I just...
I... don't think that's what we're here to talk about today.
So...
What you doing down there?
Want to talk about it?
No.
You're in the weeds.
I get it.
But you got Maddie coming over today,
and as exciting as this is,
you might want to do something nicer with her
than sitting on the floor looking out the window.
I got a radical pitch for you.
You could start with a shower. Shave, maybe.
Clean clothes.
Okay, revised edition... this first,
those other things later.
What do you think?
That you're a pain in my ass.
Hmm.
And that I don't know why you came back to Nashville.
And I'm glad you did.
Gunnar can be very persuasive.
Thought y'all two weren't talking.
Mm. We weren't.
Now we are.
You want to talk...
No.
I love having you here when I wake up in the morning.
Look, I've been thinking about it all week
while you've been here,
and I know I'm not supposed to ask
and put weird pressure on things, but...
move in with me.
Move in with you?
Come on. Why not?
Look, you're about to go out on tour,
and it's stupid to be paying for an apartment
when I'm gonna be doing my best
to make sure you're staying here when you're in town.
Wait... you do want to be staying with me
when you're in town, right?
- I'm gonna be staying here. - Then move in with me.
I'll think about it.
Okay.
I got to go. Wardrobe fitting.
What about this one?
We're going for 1950s, not heinous.
Emily, why are my ears bleeding?
You loved this song yesterday.
Well, that was yesterday. And today, I don't like it.
Can you just change the station?
Mm-hmm.
What are your thoughts on red?
I don't know. Did Patsy wear red?
Is this not your job?
My job is to dress you for tour,
Not to re-create Patsy Cline looks.
Well, the producers are afraid
I can't disappear into the character,
so today, your job is to make this look like that.
No. 10, here's "Don't put dirt on my grave just yet. "
- Emily! - Wha...
I can't help it that your song's a huge hit on country radio.
What's wrong? I love that song.
I'm not in the mood to listen to a song
that I wrote with my ex-boyfriend.
How about that?
Uh, J., Dr. Davidson's office
is saying someone called claiming to be you.
They're asking about some appointment
later this week or something?
That is so weird.
Hello?
What the hell is going on with her?
Mn.
Do you remember when we used to pretend
that this carpet was a lava pit?
I do.
I also remember standing on this carpet
when Daddy kicked me out of the house when I was 16.
Sorry. It's a little tainted for me around here.
Where do we start?
I don't know. I don't really want much.
I'd love to have mama's portrait.
Maybe some of her jewelry, if that's okay?
Nothing of Daddy's?
I don't think so.
So, how did that interview go?
Oh, it was a waste of time.
But I did get the keys to the office.
I want you to come over,
pick out your little corner for your desk.
You know, I've been wanting to talk to you.
You are doing a great job.
You got 60 sold-out tour dates, and your album's kicking ass.
- You found the office spaces yourself. - Shoot.
- What? - The new charts came out.
My album got bumped to no. 2.
What?
Who bumped you?
All right, let's take it back to the second chorus,
And, uh, this time, let...
Oh, hey. It's the missus.
Give me a second, guys.
Hey, hey, honey.
Gina wanted me to come tell you the good news.
Um... your album just bumped Rayna Jaymes
and took the no. 1 spot on the charts.
Are you serious?
Hey, guys... album just went no. 1!
- Yeah! - Whoo!
Babe, this is huge.
Yeah, I'm really happy for you.
Really.
Give us a second, here.
You okay?
How can you even ask me that?
There are cameras who knows where in my house.
I have no career. I can't even get a divorce.
And my husband is...
At fault?
Yeah. That.
Well, hey, let me help you out. Now that I'm no. 1, I... I...
There is nothing that you can do to help me.
And you're sure it's not a false positive?
No, I get that. I just...
My boyfriend and I have always been careful, okay?
And I've only had unprotected sex once in the last month,
and it was with...
I've... I've made my decision, okay?
And I don't want to talk about it anymore.
I just want to take care of it as soon as possible.
Thank you.

We've got some great things happening.
Will Lexington's album just went no. 1 on the chart.
I brought Edgehill into Benton media to make money.
You asked me to give you a little space, Jeff.
I gave it to you.
But before you took the job,
Edgehill was posting four to five no. 1 albums a year.
When people were still buying albums.
Both Rayna Jaymes and Juliette Barnes bailed on your watch.
Your first two quarters were abysmal.
Um, well, I've... I've... I've got some exciting plans for Edgehill...
Starting a publishing division
so we have a stake in the songs.
Jeff, you have a problem with women?
What? No.
This can't be a label that carries only male artists.
Miranda and Carrie are selling out arenas
as fast as Kenny and Brad and Luke Wheeler...
An artist who has yet to put out an album on our label.
I'm... I'm... I'm working on him to get that out next quarter.
I don't want to tell you how to do your job,
but unless the bottom line of this division improves,
I'm gonna have no choice but to fold it.
I did the stadium launch.
I did the damn sneaky deal with the gift cards, for God's sake.
And you launched at no. 1.
For one week.
It's still a solid launch, Rayna.
You've got the GMA Mini Festival in a couple days.
That's gonna give you a little bump.
And you're projected to sell at least 450,000 units total.
Y'all, that is not even a gold record.
My records have always gone platinum.
I mean, the last one didn't do so great,
- but "Little Bits of Heaven" did. - In 2008.
Well, six years ago... uh, no, hell, three years ago,
The... the business was a totally different place.
The audience has zero attention span these days.
Well, okay. So, what, we're just supposed to be fine with that?
It's good for today.
No, it's not. It's not good for today.
Not good for me. It's not good for this label.
Okay, well, I mean, we can get you out there more.
I got tons of press requests for you.
All they want to do is talk about Luke and me.
You know I'm not gonna talk about my personal life like that.
Well, Will Lexington knocked you out of the no. 1 spot.
Why? Visibility.
He's everywhere. He's got that reality show.
He's constantly on social media.
He's on Luke's tour.
And he allows access to every detail of his life.
Well, that's not me. That has never been me.
I know that, Rayna, but what got you here
Is not gonna be enough to keep you here.
The rules are different now.
What's wrong with this one?
- Are you serious? - Yeah.
It has flowers painted on it.
Flowers, yeah.
What am I, 12?
Hey, how about this?
No flowers.
That is short and stubby. No.
Well, this one's a little taller.
How about the blue one?
Hey, come on.
You're the one that wanted to get a dresser for my place.
Okay, I just said that maybe
I could leave some stuff at your house.
I mean, you're the one who decided we had to go
On this big adventure of furniture shopping.
So you don't want a dresser, then?
Did I say that?!
I'm not sure.
My whole life sucks right now.
I mean, you going on tour... suck.
My mom marrying Luke... suck.
Let me guess.
Furniture shopping with your dad... suck.
Don't make fun of me.
That was never a choice for me, Gerry.
"There's always a choice, Patsy. "
You think it was a choice
That my daddy walked out the door?
I didn't have choices growing up.
Daddy left. I went to work.
Uh...
Daddy left.
I went to work.
Can you take those stupid boots out of here?!
What boots?
He thinks he can just leave his stuff
- laying all over my house?! - I'll take care of it.
Do you want to take the scene again from the top?
No, I don't. But you know what I want to do?
I want to purge.
I want to be rid of everything Avery Barkley.
End-of-my-shift drink for the hardest-working guy here.
Oh, thanks.
But definitely not accurate.
Actually, it is, since you're the only guy working.
I'm Nadine.
I'm new, which you probably already figured out.
Hey, Avery, you got a sec?
I'm trying really hard not to be a crazy girl,
but apparently I am, because it's really bothering me
that Gunnar begged Scarlett not to leave town
and then drove all the way to Mississippi with her.
I haven't said anything to Gunnar yet
because I don't want him to think I'm a paranoid nut job.
And then this morning, he asked me to move in with him.
So I want to talk to Scarlett
because moving in... wow...
But I don't know if things
should be weird between us after she...
Zoey, if you want to talk to Scarlett,
then I suggest you talk to Scarlett.
What happened on your road trip?
I'm not a very reliable witness.
I was drunk most of the time.
I mean, they were friends for a really long time.
He just wanted to make sure she was okay.
I'm gonna call her.
You know what? Thank you for talking me through this.
I feel better.
Anytime.
Your girlfriend seems upset.
Oh, uh, she's... not my girlfriend.
Congratulations. I knew you could do it.
Well, thank you. I couldn't have done it without you, Jeff.
I know.
Hey, look, we got to talk big plans...
Follow-up album, music videos,
other appearances we could stack
against the "Moon or Shine" tour.
We got to strike while the iron is hot...
Get you out in front of the public eye any way we can.
You know I'm all about it, Jeff. I'm all about it.
But actually, I want to talk to you about Layla.
Will... I need you to focus on you right now.
We have killed ourselves getting you to no. 1 on the charts,
and I would very much like it if you stayed there.
We can't have you distracted.
Well, my wife isn't a distraction, Jeff.
I think you should put her album back in motion.
She could be a big star.
I also heard that there's some big producers in from L. A.
Casting the Patsy Cline movie.
You should get her an audition for that.
- I mean, everyone else seems to be going in. - Will...
I'd think you'd want to keep your number-one artist happy,
right, Jeff?
I'll see what I can do.
Hi.
I was knocking on the front.
I heard you back here, and...
Sorry. I didn't mean to show up.
No. Hey, show up whenever you want.
Thanks.
Uh, I was at Zoey's. She's not there.
And we've just been playing the most ridiculous game
of phone tag ever,
and I thought maybe the in-person thing might work.
Well, she's here, but she's asleep.
She was out super-late at rehearsals last night,
and she's got another one today.
You know, it's like never has any down time anymore.
Yeah, I don't miss that part of the road.
Hey, this is really pretty.
Yeah. Glad you stopped by.
You want to see the best part?
Yeah.
Come on.
Ta-da!
Wow.
You like it?
Yeah. It's real cool.
You've done real well for yourself.
Well, no, I got lucky.
But still, having a tricked-out studio
Can't make up for the fact that I still get stuck on lyrics.
Would you mind taking a look?
We have literally been sitting here for an hour.
Correction... you have been sitting there for an hour.
Me... I've been assembling this fabulous dresser.
Why didn't you just get one that was already put together?
Because yesterday, when we went shopping for three hours,
this was the only one
that didn't get an "ugh" or a "suck" or a "gross."
It got a "meh. " "meh" was the winner.
It's too many stupid pieces, honestly.
Okay, Maddie... I love you, all right?
But you want to know what sucks right now?
What sucks is this whole attitude you got going on here.
Now, I know you're upset about your mom and all that,
but that is no reason to dump on me.
I think that I'm entitled to dump a lot of it on you.
Me? Why me? I haven't done a damn thing wrong here.
- That is total crap! - What are you talk...
My mom is marrying Luke
because you're too pathetic to do anything about it!
You hold on right a second now. You don't...
Why didn't you just say something?!
Why didn't you fight for her?!
I did fight for her, Maddie!
- I pr... - But you didn't fight hard enough!
I asked your mother to marry me, all right?!
Is that hard enough?!
She said no.

I got a little distracted yesterday
after those charts came out.
Ah, well, what's Bucky say?
You know, he says it's gonna be a solid album.
Well, Bucky is a smart guy.
Well, I don't want a solid album.
Well, not every record goes platinum.
Mine always used to.
Man, this new world order...
I... I don't know what you're supposed to do.
Look, you don't need to feel like
the whole world is riding on your shoulders.
I mean, you really don't need to worry about money anymore.
I mean, between your dad's estate
and us getting married, I mean, hell,
you could just sit at home all day being Mrs. Luke Wheeler.
I'm just joshing you.
I know that's not what you want to do...
But isn't it nice to think that you could?
Come on, Maddie.
Please, sweetie, just... open the door, honey.
We got to talk about it, honey.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
I'm so sorry.
Listen to me.
I shouldn't have told you that I asked your mom to marry me.
How could she not have chosen you?
I don't know, sweetie.
She had her reasons.
We got to respect that.
On the plus side, I can't imagine
that Luke is gonna ask me out on his tour now, so...
We'll get some time together to figure it all out.
I wanted it to be you so badly.
Me too, sweetie.
Me too.
I don't care what you have to do to make it happen.
Just make it happen!
Hey, do you think I should sing first
or should I do the scene first?
I should do the song, right?
'Cause we're not worried about that part?
Look, I... I... I think you should do
Whatever they tell you to do, okay?
Sadie Stone. Wow.
Uh, Jeff Fordham, Edgehill-Republic.
Oh, hey! Hey.
It's nice to meet you.
No, no, I am... I am a huge fan of yours.
I've been following all your success over this past year.
You auditioning for "Patsy"?
Yeah, but it's just a lark.
This past year has been a pretty wild ride,
but, you know, I'm having fun, so...
Well, you should be having even more fun.
Look, I know your deal's up at your label,
and you should really come on over to Edgehill.
It'd be a great fit for you.
I'm so flattered.
All these years writing in the trenches...
And now your single's no. 3 and rising.
You are seriously talented.
Hey!
Juliette, hi. Thanks for coming back in.
We're all huge fans of yours.
Thank you so much for having me.
I am so excited to be reading for y'all.
I feel like... I was just born to play this part.
All right. Let's start with scene 1.
Okay.
That was never a choice for me, Gerry.
"There's always a choice, Patsy. "
You think it was a choice that my daddy walked out the door?
I didn't have choices growing up.
Daddy left. I went to work.
And then somewhere along the way,
I found singing, and I'm good at it.
And I'll be damned if you're gonna tell me
I can't go out on the road because I'm supposed to be here
to serve you supper and make lots of babies.
"You're supposed to be my wife."
I am your wife.
That's just not all I am.
My mother wore this almost every day of her life.
This and Chanel No. 5.
I swear she was the original steel magnolia.
I always wanted to be just like her.
Seems kind of funny now.
Nah.
Must have been amazing to grow up like this...
World at your fingertips.
It was overrated.
Growing up with nothing is overrated.
I can imagine that's true, too.
I mean, I'm, you know, trying to give my kids this kind of life,
but I couldn't imagine it for myself.
Are you kidding me?
With Daddy working as a groom
and us living season to season...
I mean, he loved those horses,
but he could never imagine owning one.
Rich, poor... I know we're all equal in the eyes of God,
but here on earth... rich is a lot better.
But you had a good family.
I mean, it always sounds like you had so much love around.
Yeah, yeah. We did.
And, look, I know, you know, losing your mom was hard,
but you never really talked about your dad much, and...
I mean, the way I heard it, you know,
Lamar Wyatt was a great man... capital letters.
This city loved him.
Yeah, well...
I guess you could say he gave the city his best self,
but... his daughters were another story.
Is that why you never had nannies for your girls?
Mn-hmm.
You know, you put too much distance
between yourself and the things that are important to you,
it's real easy to forget what those things are.
My daddy did teach me that.
You're really not gonna keep anything to remember him by?
There's nothing about my daddy I really want to hold on to.
Nothing? Surely, there's something.
There isn't.
Up with that chord change?
Yeah, I think so, and then here,
where it says "either way, I'll still be your home,"
make that, "always be your home."
That's nicer, I think.
"Always be your home"? Is that okay?
"Always," yeah.
You know, uh, Jeanie is gonna
love putting a song out to the town
with both our names on it.
Oh. Um, wha... what do you mean, "both our names"?
She says people love our old stuff
and are always asking for something new, so...
But I don't think it needs both our names on it.
It's your song.
Come on. It was half a song when you walked through the door.
We wrote it together.
Hey, what's wrong?
It's... it's not a co-write. It's, it's your song.
I just tweaked a few things. That's all.
Stop being modest. You did a ton.
No, I... I... I don't need this.
"Don't need this"? What are you talking...
- I don't... I don't need it. I can't. - Scarlett...
Hey.
And right. And left. And forward.
Good. Hit that spot. Make it nice and sharp.
And turn to the back. Back to the front.
Nice and bright. Arms up high.
And walk. Forward. Hit that mike.
How many times do we need to rehearse this?
Sorry. I'm... I'm sorry.
Get your head in the game, Zoey.
From the top, ladies.
Hello?
Okay. Thanks.
Okay, no Juliette tonight. We're calling it.
Wait... but we've been here for three hours.
Now she's just not gonna show?
If I were you, I'd be happy for the cancellation.
You waste everybody's time like that when Juliette is here,
and you're done.
I know it sucks, but suck it up.
Do you think we can maybe run lines now?
Mm-hmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow.
That's absolutely perfect.
You were tailor-made for this role.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
We'll call your reps and get into it.
Great.
We have your tour dates from your manager,
but is there anything else coming up for you
that we'll need to schedule around?
No. Nothing at all.
Hey, Valerie.
You got one more actor... Layla Grant.
We talked earlier, remember?
She's... really great.
Of course, Jeff. Good to see you.
Thanks, Juliette. We'll be in touch.
Ready?
Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wow.
Bravo, Juliette.
It takes a particular brand of amateur
to come to the audition all dressed up for the part.
Get out of my way.
Packing on a few pounds to look exactly like Patsy is...
It's tremendous dedication.
Hey, the auction house sent these papers over
for us to sign.
Okay.
Did you know Daddy had that hanging in his dressing room?
Yeah. It's been there for years.
My first platinum record.
Mm.
Why did he always try to take credit for it?
I worked my ass off for this record.
I was so proud of it.
So was he.
Mom gave me the courage to use my voice.
I got my ambition from Daddy.
He gave me that.
I guess I'll always have it.
♪ She likes to sleep with me naked ♪

All right, thank y'all, fellas.
Y'all give me a little break here.
Hey. Thanks for coming down.
I sort of had to, since you got all my guitars.
Well, this'll be quick.
We got to discuss a few things about the first leg.
First leg of what?
Tour we about to go back out on.
Me and you?
Yeah.
- So I ain't fired? - No.
- Why the hell not? - I don't know.
I'm done watching your reckless behavior
ruin any chance you might have had at a career.
- Then I guess I quit. - Oh.
Actually, no, you don't.
You know, that contract we signed
says I get to pick whether you stay or go,
so I'm saying you're staying.
You can talk to my lawyers about it if you want to.
Is this some kind of punishment or something?
You really are a romantic, aren't you?
This ain't personal, man.
This is business...
meaning you on my tour is good business.
So we're gonna head out next week.
Wheels up, son.
Can I talk to you about something?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Well, you know I'm going out on tour. - Yeah.
And I'm thinking about adding about 40 more tour dates,
which means I'll have to be gone a lot longer,
and I won't be able to come home as much.
Why can't you just come home like you normally do?
Well, this tour is very important for the label.
So that means that in between tour dates,
I'm gonna have to go do radio interviews
and free concerts and a lot of press
and really put myself out there.
- Where are we gonna stay? - With your dad.
- And Deacon? - And Deacon.
And here with me and Luke when we're home.
And y'all can always come out on tour, too,
whenever I can arrange it with school.
How long is it gonna be like this?
Probably about a year.
And I know that seems like a long time, but you know what?
When this is done, I'll be back home,
probably working on a new album, working on the label.
Things will be back to normal.
Okay, Mom.
Go for it.
Thank you, baby.
Except the fact that you'll be married to Luke.
That part won't be normal.
Want to talk about that some more?
No. I don't. I think it's a great idea.
Honey.
Take "yes" for an answer, Mom.
Knock, knock.
Still working?
No, I hit a wall.
Sorry I've been a little off lately.
Anything we need to talk about?
Just... too busy.
Which means I'm not seeing enough of you.
So if the offer's still on the table, my answer is yes.
I'll move in.
Good.
Yeah, no, I hear that, but I have to know the numbers.
How'd it go with Layla?
How do you think it went? It was terrible.
Look, that can't be right. Check it again.
Will called to ask you about it.
Well, he can hear all about it from his wife.
I don't have time to talk to him right now.
- You know Sadie Stone? - Yeah.
Find out where she's gonna be tonight.
And get me something to eat
that isn't the total garbage you got me yesterday.
Thank you.
I got your text.
Why are we here?
Gina wants some footage of us around Nashville or... something.
Camera crew's coming.
Hey, how'd that audition go?
Nothing's gonna come of that.
Well, maybe if Jeff pushes a little bit...
Right, but Jeff is not going to push a little bit.
Jeff doesn't owe me anything.
You're the one who owes me.
I know I do.
And, uh... I'll keep after him.
You know, you owe me everything.
You owe me... everything.
I own you.
Yeah, I don't need Jeff Fordham
when my husband is the number-one artist
in all of country music.
And you know what?
I just heard that he was taking his wife on tour with him.
Layla, there... there's a lot of things at play here, okay?
I mean, I... I'd have to check with Luke.
Sounds like your problem... not mine.
All right, this is kind of coming out of nowhere.
You want to talk about things that are coming out of nowhere?
How about, "I'm gay"?
That came out of nowhere.
I know. I know it did.
And I've told you how sorry I am.
We can figure this out.
I mean, I care about you.
Well, I do not care about you!
I hate you.
Okay?
Let's just be really clear about that.
I do not forgive you.
And I am not gonna let you get in the way of what I want.
Come on, babe.
Don't forget to smile for the cameras.
What are you doing?
I was just dropping your stuff off.
Didn't think you'd want to see me, so...
I don't.
That's why I'm gonna go.
Glad to see you've moved on so quickly.
Must be nice to be able to love me one day
and then just leave my stuff on my doorstep the next.
What do you want from me? What do you want?
I told you that I'm sorry, that I loved you,
and you bailed.
I bailed?
Yeah.
I'm the one who walked out on our relationship?
Juliette, you slept with Jeff Fordham!
Thank you!
I don't need you to remind me of my mistakes, okay?
I did not forget about them.
But I think you, sir,
are letting yourself off nice and easy.
How could this possibly be my fault?!
You did not care at all that Charlie Wentworth hit on me
Because you were too busy with Scarlett.
All of this started because of you.
So I drove you to cheat?!
Y... you have no free will.
You're just a... a puppet,
and everyone's pulling your little strings!
I made a mistake.
I made a mistake, and I am dealing with it, okay?
So don't you worry about me!
You got your crap back,
and now we can just be really, truly done.
- Good. - Great.
- Fine! - Awesome!
I just can't believe I don't get to see you for a whole week.
It was supposed to be one day.
I know, but now I'm meeting
with all the radio stations in New York, in New Jersey.
I swear, I think I'm getting together
with every programming director in the tri-state area.
I'm playing this game. That's all I have to say.
All right, well, you are walking into hell
with dynamite drawers on... I know that.
I mean, next, are you gonna tell me
that you want your own barbecue sauce, like me?
- What's that like? - What?
Having your face on a jar of barbecue sauce?
I mean, have you ever even tasted it?
I have not tasted it.
I don't know... I guess it's just the way
to have the kind of life I want to have.
You know, I don't care what the hell it is...
barbecue sauce or a line of boots or whatever.
I mean, in a weird way,
that's not even the real me, you know?
That's the country-music superstar Luke Wheeler.
Uh-huh.
I tell you what, since you and I got together...
Oh, my gosh.
- It is crazy. - Yeah.
This business with the magazines...
everybody wants the exclusive on the wedding and honeymoon.
We haven't even set a date yet.
- "Ruke." - "Ruke."
We can just say no to all of it.
We can just go hide away in a cabin somewhere in Montana
and be different people...
You know, if that's what you want to do.
- I don't want that. - Well, me neither.
Good.
But once that machine gets going,
it... it doesn't stop.
You okay with that?
I'm okay with that.
- Hey. - Hey.
I'm really sorry that I ran out on you the other day.
It was silly.
I'm just trying to work through all this stuff,
and I'm... I'm sorry.
You want to come in?
Gunnar, um...
I can't write with you at the moment.
Please don't be offended.
I just... I don't really know who I am right now, and I'm...
I guess it's probably better
if I try to find my own voice first
before I take to writing with someone else.
Yeah, I... I get it.
Probably for the best, right?
Yeah.
I mean, I was thinking
I might slow down myself a little bit.
Zoey's moving in, and...
I want to spend as much time with her as I can
before she leaves on Juliette's tour.
Um...
Well...
Thank you for bringing me back.
It was the right thing.
I'll see you 'round, okay?
Yeah.
All right, I'll see you 'round.
Hey, Deacon?
Hey, is that a masterpiece or what?
It sure is. It's amazing.
I was thinking you and I could find a spot for it together.
That would be so great.
All right.
You know, I have a lot more stuff to put in it now, too.
- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.
Mom told me and Daphne
That she's gonna be gone a little bit more now.
And, um, you know, since I have two dads now,
I was thinking that maybe I could spend
a little bit more time here with you.
Sweetie, I can't even tell you how much I would love that.
What?
Well, turns out Luke wants me to go on the road, after all.
Well, do you want to go?
What I want doesn't matter.
I got a contract, and I can't break it.
I'm sorry, sweetie.
But, look, I promise
I'm gonna get back here all the time...
Like, back and forth.
And I'll do whatever I can...
You're still leaving.
Everyone is leaving.
I guess you were right before... fantasy doesn't exist.
Maddie, listen to me. When I said that, I...
Can we just play, please?
I just want to talk to you
before you head off to new york this afternoon.
I have to give you my resignation.
- What? - Yeah.
Honey...
The music business is your thing, not mine.
And you just love it so much.
I want to love what I do as much as you do.
Well, what do you want to do?
Well, a friend of mine has a nonprofit
up in San Francisco... a friend from Wharton.
And I've been doing a little bit of work for him, and...
It feels good.
Maybe it's a little penance
for all the years I spent working with Daddy.
And they offered me a job.
Does that mean you're going to California?
Well, for now.
I've spent so many years
being Lamar Wyatt's daughter and Rayna James's sister,
and I really need to spend a little time
just being Tandy Hampton and... see if I like it.
I'm gonna miss you.
You, too.
I heard your ex is Juliette Barnes,
which is kind of... wow...
Hard for a girl to compete with.
No, it isn't.
Hi, Juliette. Is anyone coming in with you today?
- No. - Okay.
Rayna, we are so excited to have you here today,
especially with your sold-out tour about to start.
What a moment for you.
Oh, well, it is so exciting to be here with all of y'all!
Whoo! I love New York!
And it's really...
Hold on, now. I had to, uh...
Ohh!
I couldn't, uh... what are you doing here?
I couldn't be... I couldn't be over there
and not come out here and get a hug from this girl, so...
Luke Bryan, you came just in time,
because Rayna here has a big announcement.
We have added 40 more dates to the concert tour,
so we are now doing 100 dates on the concert tour.
Go to @raynajaymes on Twitter,
and you'll get all the information for the concert.
All right, speaking of announcements...
Is there another one you'd care to share...
Maybe of a more personal nature?
Well...
Oh, we're talking about the other Luke.
Oh, yes, we are.
The other Luke just made me about the luckiest woman
in the world.
Can you give us just a little something
About that moment when he proposed?
Well, uh...
He did whisper a little something in my ear.
He was actually complaining to me about his trick knee.
And it took me a minute before I realized what was happening,
and it just felt like a dream
that I didn't even know I had was coming true.
Yeah, I have ring envy. I have ring envy.
Look at that thing. I do, too.
- Beautiful. Wow. Ow. - Glasses... sunglasses.
So... Well, I think it's about time
That we hear from Rayna Jaymes,
performing her new single "This Time."
- Take it away, Rayna. - Yeah!
♪ Well, you know how it goes when you meet somebody ♪
♪ That you like somebody, wanna hold somebody ♪
♪ But you just can't stand to think about somebody ♪
♪ As another somebody becoming someone else ♪
♪ When it all goes to hell ♪
♪ Why can't we keep it on the sweet side? ♪
♪ See how it feels to take a slow ride ♪
♪ This time ♪
I know this isn't easy,
so I'm gonna talk you through a few things.
Tennessee state law requires me to tell you
how far along you are.
I know how far along I am... I'm four weeks.
You can just... skip over that.
Based on this, I've got you closer to eight weeks.
What?
That's not possible.
This only happened once. It was four weeks ago.
Oh, my God.
It's not Jeff's.
