Murder in Nashville

Eden!

There you are.

I saw you pull in from upstairs.

Oh, Lily.

So nice to finally meet you in person.

Likewise.

Welcome to Callahan Legacy Records.

Come on.

Hi.

I'm sure you're exhausted after your trip,

but everyone here is just dying to meet you.

So, we'll do a quick meet and greet,

and then we will get you settled into your place.

Sound good?

Great.

Wow.

You guys take casual Fridays to a whole new level.

Well, this is just a little party for one of our artists.

Lionel.

Sterling?

Yup.

He's one of the label's newest additions.

You'll meet him later.

Eden.

Yeah.

- We gotta go. - Oh, okay.

Bye.

So

your office is gonna be upstairs.

Although I have a feeling you won't be in it that often.

But first

there is someone I wanna introduce you to.

And you'll wanna make a good first impression.

The flooding destroyed half the building,

and the insurance company

is not gonna cover the cost.

Well, that's unfathomable.

Why not?

My policy lapsed.

They said I didn't pay the last few months' premium,

but I swore I did.

All right, Char.

I don't know what I'm gonna do.

Teaching music is my life.

It's these kids' life, it saves them.

All right.

You listen to me.

If the insurance companies refuse to cover the costs...

I will.

- Really? - Yeah.

I don't want you worrying about anything.

All right? Now, that school will be rebuilt

even better than before.

All right?

You're a saint.

Ah...

Always helping our community.

You are a safe harbor in a storm

for children in this city.

Heck, you taught half the artists on my label.

That's the least I could do.

Now, I will call you later

and go over the details.

All right?

- Okay. - Good.

Sorry to interrupt.

Hey, Miss Charlotte.

Hey. How are you doing?

Good to see you.

- Hi. - Hi.

There is someone I'd like to introduce you to.

This is Eden Perry.

She's going to be the new director

of the Callahan Legacy Foundation.

Miss Perry.

I'm honored.

My daughter said so many wonderful things about you.

I'm just thrilled to have you as part of our team.

Oh, well, I am excited to be here.

It's so nice to meet you, Mr. Callahan.

Oh, please, call me Burt.

Okay.

Now, I understand that you've had quite the success

running several women's charities in New York.

Uh... I've been lucky enough to work with some

pretty phenomenal people.

Yeah, we have so many female artists under our label,

we're looking to take our company in a more

progressive direction.

Well, then you're in good hands.

Well, that's what I hear.

Now, you'll be working with Lily

and as well as our President of Operations.

Y'all met, yet?

Uh... he reached out about the position,

but it's mostly Lily I spoke with.

Yeah, he's got a lot on his plate.

But it's Lil who handles the administrative stuff.

Speak of the devil.

Miss Perry, may I introduce you to our President,

and my son,

Jax Callahan.

Eden Perry.

I'm so sorry that I couldn't meet you beforehand,

but I'm impressed.

Oh... you haven't even heard my plans for the foundation yet.

No.

The Culver Fellowship that you won

tells me everything that I need to know.

Well, I'm hoping to bring some of that creativity

here to Nashville.

Eden's passionate about music and saving the world.

My parents instilled the love of both of those things in me.

My dad was an amateur musician,

and my mom, uh, ran several women's charities.

Music's so powerful.

I believe it can speak in ways that nothing else can.

It's a voice for the voiceless.

We, of course, feel the same way.

Well, I would love to use your artists

and pair them with local charities.

I believe it will increase the profile of the smaller

non-profits around here as well as the artists.

Well, now I think that is a brilliant idea.

I love it, and I love you already, darlin'.

And I do too.

You're gonna have carte blanche

to do whatever it is that you feel necessary.

Like my sister...

You have me at your disposal.

Use me whenever you need.

Well, I heard about what happened to

the Mini Music Masters.

The music school where Lionel Sterling

learned to play, right?

Yeah. You do your homework.

They give at-risk children a chance,

and they really helped him.

So I would love to speak with him about working with them.

Well, you only just arrived, honey.

Why don't we get you settled in first?

Well, he drops his new album in a few days,

so if I could get him on board with it tonight,

then he could announce it at his press tour.

You can't buy exposure like that.

I mean, he just left about, uh... ten minutes ago?

Mmhmm.

He's, uh, performing his new album over at.

The Eighth Room.

Oh.

Well, then I guess I'll have to buy a ticket.

Oh, well, now, son

why don't you escort Miss Perry there?

Yeah, I was about to head over there in a minute,

if you'd like to join me.

Yeah, I'd love to.

Wait.

First things first.

You just came back from the airport, right?

You must be starving.

Oh... uh... I guess I am a little hungry.

Any recommendations?

So, this is the place.

Wylen!

Jax.

Good to see you.

Good thing you called.

I was able to set aside the last of today's brisket.

Wylen, you're amazing. Thank you.

Mmm.

You're in for a treat because this is

the best barbecue in Nashville.

No, it's best in the country, I say.

Ain't that right, Wylen?

I don't know.

We've got some pretty good barbecue in New York.

You haven't tried anything until you've had

some good, old-fashioned southern food.

Best in the country?

Let's see.

Yeah?

Yeah, that is really good.

Whoa!

Be careful.

You might get that nice shirt of yours a little dirty.

I ain't afraid to get dirty.

Me neither.

Oh.

Thanks.

Oh my gosh, I love him.

His music is so beautiful.
