Nashville

- Previously on "Nashville"... - I'm a little confused.

- What is this? - Fun.

Jeff: If I can just clean up this Juliette thing,

I have a real shot

at being the C.E.O. of Luke's new company.

Deacon: I've been thinking about that bar of yours.

I want to buy in.

You really not gonna invite me in?

There are lines I don't cross when it comes to clients.

Fair enough. You're fired.

Move in with me.

Really?

Yeah.

What's wrong with Juliette?

Nothing. Why?

She's the mother of my child,

and she needs help.

The last time I saw her, she was in her room,

and she was fine.

Juliette. Don't do this.

No!

- -

Man: Miss Barnes?

Somebody get that.

Juliette Barnes?

Anybody?!

- - Miss Barnes?

Hello?

Hello? Miss Barnes?

Juliette Barnes?

If this is about the crazed fan, contact my manager about it.

He's dealing with it.

He's who we're here to talk about.

Whatever. Just make it quick.

I got a plane to catch.

Miss Barnes.

Mr. Fordham died last night.

He's dead?

Detective: Miss Gran?

Detective: Miss Grant?

Has Mr. Fordham ever tried anything like this before?

Miss Gran?

Miss Grant?

Did you hear what I just said?

Has Mr. Fordham ever done anything like this before?

I don't know what you mean.

We know he was fired earlier this year.

We also know he's in a lot of debt.

Wait, are you... are you saying

you don't think that this was an accident?

No. We were moving in together.

We... we were making plans for the future.

I understand.

Sometimes people mask depression with false hope.

Gabriella: You fired me.

Luke: Mm. And I'd love to hire you back.

I'm just not sure I'm ready to give this up.

You want my advice?

As a courtesy, since I'm no longer on the payroll.

Mm-hmm.

Let's not make too big a deal of this, okay?

I mean, it was sex, and it was good...

Whoa. Wait a second. First of all, it was great.

- And fine. -

You can have your job back in an hour.

Mm.

Mm. You need to get back to your son.

And I need to put out a press release

naming Jeff as C.E.O.

All right, all right.

Just tell me that's room service with some coffee.

It's the police.

- All right, keep them closed now. - They're closed.

- All right. They better. -

- Got your hands. - Okay.

All right, don't look. Don't look. I'm right here.

Okay. All right, you stay there. Stay there.

All right, go ahead... look.

A bar?

Your surprise is a bar?

It's not a bar. It's my bar.

As of this morning,

I am part owner in what is soon to be

the best new venue in Nashville, baby.

Welcome to the Beverly.

You sure you want to do this?

I don't need it anymore.

It's time to let go.

His girlfriend said he spent most of yesterday with you.

Was he acting out of character at all, or...

He was being his usual jackass self.

Did your manager have any reason to think his job was at risk?

You can keep asking me these questions.

I'm still gonna tell you the same answers.

The last time I saw Jeff, he told me to stay in this room.

And I did... all night long.

We'll circle back with you if we need anything else.

Thanks for your time.

Oh, and, uh... I'm sorry for your loss.

Detective: We've gone through all his belongings,

so feel free to take them.

Who... is this?

A guest of your brother's.

You must be Kate.

I'm Layla Gran. I'm Jeff's girlfriend.

I'm sure.

Whom do I speak to

about getting the body back to New York for burial?

That would be the medical examiner's office.

I'll get you a number.

If you need help with funeral arrangements or anything, I...

Look, I don't know who or what you were to Jeff,

but my brother never mentioned your name.

As far as the service, it will be for family only.

Now, please vacate the room.

I need to collect my brother's things.

Colt!

- Where were you? - You been drinking?

- Dad... - Damn it, Colt!

What the hell's wrong with you?

You know how much trouble you'd get in?

Not only are you underage...

- Dad! - What?!

I saw Jeff Fordham fall off the roof last night.

What?

Juliette was out there like she was going to jump,

and then Jeff p-pulled her back,

and... then he just went over.

And I went to find you, and you weren't there.

Where were you?!

I-I went to go find you, and you weren't there.

I'm here. I'm here.

I got you.

Hey, stranger.

Oh... my God.

I did not think that you could be any more beautiful.

- Mm. - I love it.

- Thank you. -

- Welcome home. - It's so good to be home.

But don't get used to it.

I, um...

I've decided I'm gonna go out on tour.

U-uh... Okay.

Y-you think that you're ready for that?

I actually can't wait to get back out onstage.

It'll be good.

Well, hey, if you're excited, then I'm excited for you.

Let's go celebrate right now, in fact... uh, for lunch.

I don't have patients for a while.

I can't. Uh, I have rehearsal all day.

We've got so much to do before we leave in a week.

- Um... - Okay.

I could do dinner, though.

Dinner's good.

Good.

Come on, come on. See that wall right there?

That thing's coming down. That's all the way gone.

Then we're gonna have a bigger stage, bigger sound system.

And a lot more seating.

Come on in here.

Frankie Gray.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you finally.

You're going into business with your sponsor?

Is that a thing?

No, that is not a thing,

which is why I'm getting me a new sponsor.

We've agreed to keep our boundaries clean

so we can get this place turned around.

You're damn right.

Been kind of tough keeping up with

all the new hipster joints popping up,

but that's all about to change... thanks to Deacon.

Hey, Frank, can you help me real quick?

I want to measure this thing, see how high this is.

I'll just be a second, sweetie.

Okay.

- - All right.

Hey, honey. How you doing?

Layla: I'm sorry.

I just... I don't know who else to call.

Uh...

Jeff's...

Jeff's dead.

What?!

How? What happened?

I don't know. I don't know exactly.

Sweetheart, I'm so sorry.

W-what can I do?

I just want to get out of here, Ray.

I want to come home.

But there aren't any planes.

Well... I-I'll call Luke,

and... and I'm sure you can come back with him.

Okay.

I'm... I'm here for you.

Whatever you need, you... you call me, okay?

Okay. Yeah, all right.
