Nashville

Previously on "Nashville"...

You're still digging out from the hit you took

when Teddy's development went bust.

Bottom line, Joe. Stop spending money.

You think he's lying about something.

A mayor with secrets is easier to control.

What is his problem with my career?

He hates your career because of mom.

Mom had a singer/songwriter friend. You mean like an affair?

You've proven to have the same disregard

for your marriage that she did for ours.

I'm trying to do the right thing,

but none of it feels right to me.

I feel like I need to be letting you go.

So why don't you, Ray?

My mother is a drug addict.

I need you. There was a time when I needed you, too.

I'm your mama!

Your girlfriend's got it.

I think she feels like you might, you know, leave her.

What is going on with getting Deacon Claybourne on my tour?

I want him.

You deserve someone you can count on.

I'm not that guy.

Oh, look.

It's Juliette Barnes.

Do you know how much I have missed this?

A lot?

Yeah.

A lot.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

What?

Rayna.

Hey, sleepyhead.

You planning on getting up today?

Yeah.

I'll see you downstairs. (Mug clatters)

Take your time. Thanks, babe.

Miss Barnes!

Miss Barnes!

Yes?

Lord, what'd my mama do now?

Look, if you want her, just... You can take her.

She's all yours.

We actually came for you.

What the hell is this?

Shoplifting is a class "a" misdemeanor.

I'm sure by now you've seen the video.

About 4 million people have.

Seriously?

Get a real job.

Will you tell me what's really happening

with the polls with Teddy?

He's always so upbeat with me.

He's down 12 points.

No. Are you serious?

Rayna, he is practically on life support.

Hey, girls, ten minutes.

I don't think she can hear you.

No, she heard you.

It's called selective listening.

I was texting Virginia about my homework.

See, I told you she could hear me.

Aunt Tandy, daddy's gonna win, right?

Absolutely.

He has a fund-Raiser this weekend.

Really? I could sing.

You sing? Yes, I sing.

You should sing. I could sing. Would that help?

Well, Teddy wouldn't say so, But, yes, that would help.

Easy. Done. Just tell me where and when.

It's at the country club.

No. (Sighs) (Maddie) Mom.

Mom, there's this video online.

You're not gonna believe it.

It's about Juliette Barnes.

4 million views. Not bad.

Yes, she's seen it, because everybody's seen it.

Baby, you got any more cereal?

All right, well, just come to the house when you land, okay?

At least something made without raisins.

You know I hate raisins.

All right, Makena's on her way to J.F.K.

Makena? Yeah.

Why? Doesn't she have Kristen Stewart to worry about?

When you're at the center of a publicity nightmare,

you generally need your publicist.

You're kidding me, baby. You got no milk. (Scoffs)

I cannot believe she has to stay here. (Sighs)

After everything that's transpired

in the last 48 hours, that's what you can't believe?

You know what, Glenn? You need to relax.

As Makena would say, any publicity is good publicity.

Yeah, well, I don't think she'd say that.

At least I look good.

Hey.

Hey. How was your day?

It was long.

They make you show up at 6:00.

Turns out there's some noise ordinance.

Couldn't even start TILL 8:00.

Oh. How about you?

Uneventful. Yeah?

Waiting on news that's never coming

from a phone that's never ringing.

Well, look, just the fact

that you got to record a demo with watty white...

I mean, people would kill for that opportunity.

I know. I know.

All you can control is what you put out there,

not whether some publisher will be interested.

Yeah, well, I just wish They'd tell me no

so I could put it out of my mind.

Well... if you really wanna put it out of your mind...

Anyone home? Gunnar.

Seriously?

Hey.

Hey.

Uh... sorry to just show up like this,

but I thought you'd wanna know as soon as I'd heard.

What?

We got the deal.

Are you serious? No.

No? He's messing with you.

I'm messing with you. We got the deal!

don't you mess with me!

Oh, I'm so excited! We got a deal!

Oh, my god. I can't believe it.

Hey.

Hey.

So I heard a rumor today

that you're gonna be doing a set for me

at the country club. Well, I hope it's more than a rumor.

And I hope they're putting out a press release.

That's why I'm doing it. They did.

And thanks.

I really mean it.

Babe... You know you can tell me if things aren't going well.

Things are going fine.

All right, well...

12 points down doesn't exactly sound fine.

Hon, who... Who told you that?

My sister.

Oh. The mouth of the south.

Right. She's also the one

who told me about this fund-Raiser.

Okay. That's internal polling that she's talking about,

and there is a huge margin of error.

All right, But if you're not telling me anything,

then she's the only one I've got to listen to.

Coming home and telling you

about everything that's going wrong,

the... the... the country club, your dad being involved...

Honey, I'm just trying to spare you.

Well, I appreciate that.

And, you know, I was gonna talk to you

about this whole country club venue.

Maybe we can think about changing it.

I mean, I can sing anywhere, hon.

I can sing at the airport...

Mars.

Hell. There you go.

Connecticut.

Yes, we know. Of course. A disturbing subject for a lot of parents...

We called Makena. No doubt you've all seen or heard about

country star Juliette Barnes' shoplifting incident...

tomorrow, I guess. (Jolene) Baby, lookit here. There's at least

20 different kinds of nail polish in here,

all different colors.

Now why on earth do you go and steal 'em

when you have all these here?

Why don't you just mind your own business?

Can't you do something with her,

like send her back to Birmingham?

That's for the judge to decide at her hearing.

I can't do anything. What, in seven weeks?

Can't you do something? Pull some strings?

Tell them who I am.

Doubt that'll do much Good right now.

I can't be around her for another second.

There she is! I see her! The thief!

You've been stealing!

You've gotta be kidding me.

Stay down. Just stay down.

I think we should turn around.

This is a nightmare.

She's here!

Thank God. Makena.

How was your flight?

It was torture. No internet.

I landed to 75 e-mails. How's everyone here?

Oh, hi, to you, too.
