Nashville (2012–2018): Season 1, Episode 20 - A Picture from Life's Other Side - full transcript

Previously on Nashville...

- What?
- Sing to me.

In the middle of the
living-room, with a whisk?

You come crazy?

You've just been nominated
for a C.M.A Award.

I just got nominated for
female vocalist of the year.

How would you like to come home with me?

That's not a good idea.

Looking at you, I don't
really see much of an outlaw.

- Is this stuff true?
- You took Jason's song.

It's just a song.



Hello? Do you have any idea
what you've done to my daughter?

Dante. What the hell do you want?

What kind of tape?

Thank you, Charlotte! Good night!

Great show, as always.

Thank you! Ooh, I am so
happy this leg is over.

I can't wait to get home to the girls.

And auditions, right?

Pfft.

Well, Marshall says we
gotta close the label deal

by the end of the month.

He... he can't just make up
some random deadline like that.

Well, yeah, he can do that if he wants to.

It's been a couple of months.



We can't keep letting the "perfect"

be the enemy of the "good."

- But perfect is the enemy of the good.
- Mm.

I'm not settling.

How long we gonna have
to do this in private?

Mmm.

Just till I can tell the girls,

get 'em used to you being around,

professionally and privately.

Mmm.

Does that sound good?

Yep.

You know, speaking of professionally,

um...

My whole work schedule just
really loosened up, right?

Yeah.

Maybe we could do both.

Wanna come over to my house
for dinner tomorrow night?

You, me, and the girls?

Thank you, Charlotte!

- You guys are the best!
- I'd love to.

Good night!

Mmm.

Okay. Here we go.

- What?
- What?

What do you mean "what"? You were smirkin'.

I... I'm not smirkin'.

It's just, you're working on a
new song. I think that's cool.

- Am I?
- You've been humming that same thing for days.

That's what I do when I got
something new stuck in my head.

You know, you should
probably get it down on paper

before it disappears.

You know, you did a great
job playing the other night.

I woulda told you myself, but...

you kind of bailed on me.

Was that because they told
you to stay away from me

or because you couldn't keep up?

I bailed 'cause it seemed
like you were a little...

over-served.

That is a very ballsy
thing to say to your boss.

You are lucky you're cute
enough to get away with it.

You wanna help me get
those lyrics down on paper

before they disappear?

I'll take that as a "yes."

Are you ever gonna have

a recording session
that doesn't end at dawn?

We work till the music feels right.

Yeah, the only reason
you're working on that

is because that producer
guy has got you thinking

you're some kind of outlaw.

Well, maybe I am some kind of outlaw.

Yeah, a tickly one.

He just thinks working on this image

will create some attention...

not just locally but for labels, too.

Okay.

What's with all the dresses?

I'm playing at the Opry. Remember?

Of course I do.

I also remember...

there's gonna be thousands
of people there watching ya.

And your debut's a big deal.

Jack. Hey, man.

Seriously?

Well, hell, yeah.

- Bye.
- What's that?

Uh, it's, uh, Vandy Radio.

They want me to go in to do
some kind of show tomorrow.

- Really?
- Apparently, everyone's calling in,

asking for my song to be played.

Baby, that is so good! Well done!

All right.

Okay.

Are you going again right now?

Yeah, Jack needs me to go...

- Prep or something.
- So...

Uh, do you have any
idea when you'll be back?

Soon.

And... I vote the blue dress.

Bye.

- Hi.
- He looks like

he hasn't slept or showered in like a week.

You know, I couldn't tell if he had.

You ready for your big Opry debut?

No. Thanks for for asking.

Come on. You gonna knock 'em dead.

Handpicked by Rayna Jaymes?

Got to.

So, uh, is she just introducing you

or... her label, too?

No, she has to pick one more act

before she can officially launch the thing.

But, um...

she's having some secret
session at sound check tomorrow.

If she finds the right person,

she'll announce us
both, or it's just... me.

Yeah.

Teddy's moving forward

with this new parcel he's
chosen for the stadium site,

which leaves us with a prime
piece of real estate to develop.

- Retail.
- I'm thinking mixed use high-rise.

What do you think?

Daddy?

Sorry. What?

We were just talking about
the next step for our land.

Albert wants retail. I
want mixed use high-rise.

No. Baseball stadium.

I'll talk to my friends
on the zoning commission.

You tried that already. That didn't work.

You think I don't remember
who I've talked to?

I'm just sayin', I'm gonna
try again. That's all.

And I'm saying that I think that

that's a battle that we've already lost.

Are you sure you really
feel up to being this...

involved?

You like that?

He's agreed to give us the S.D. Card.

For how much?

$2 million.

I'd suggest letting me
try to negotiate him down.

No. I want that video,
and I want it destroyed...

before the C.M.A. Awards.

Juliette, my professional advice?

Get this guy locked up.

Are you kidding? No!

No reports, no cops, no scandals.

Nothin'!

Is that not why I hired you?

Baby, is there anything that I can do?

Mama, I just need to be left alone. Okay?

So you haven't found a
second act yet, right?

No. Don't you get any ideas.

Oh. I'm looking for a guy anyway.

- What about Deacon?
- Hi.

- He is a guy.
- Hey.

- Hi.
- It's true.

I think my mom's looking
for someone a bit younger.

- Oh, wow.
- Oh!

No offense or anything.

No offense taken, but
you do not get any pie.

- Oh, that's a beautiful pie. Thank you for bringing that.
- Made that myself.

- Smells delicious.
- Beautiful.

Hey, what can I do to help?

You know what you can do?
You can take these people

in the other room, keep 'em occupied

- so mama can get dinner done.
- All right. Let's go, people.

You're going to play a song with us.

I don't know. I saw y'all
in New York do "Ho Hey."

I'm pretty intimidated you
might blow me out of the water.

Okay, so does that mean
that you know the song?

Yeah, I can probably pick it out.

Maybe you should just play.
I'm really not that great.

Oh, the hell you're not.

- Language.
- Oh, sorry.

Wow. It's true, though. She's better than

half the session musicians I play with.

Really?

Absolutely, yeah.

Tell you what... you start off,

and, uh, I'll come in behind you.

♪ I've been trying to do it right ♪

♪ I've been living a lonely life ♪

♪ I've been sleeping here instead ♪

♪ I've been sleeping in my bed ♪

♪ sleeping in my bed

Hey, dad!

Hey, honey.

Dad. What's going on here?

We were just making some
dinner. Surprised to see you.

Yeah, well, Maddie left
her soccer gear in the car.

I figured she'd need it
for her game tomorrow.

Can I have a word with you?

Yep.

What the hell is this?

I thought I made my decision clear.

And I walk my the house,
and he's just sittin' here?

Teddy, we are getting a divorce.

This is not your call.

You didn't want them around
Peggy, and I honored that.

I don't want my daughters around him.

You were having an affair.

So were you, emotionally,

the entire time that we were married.

Don't you try to rewrite history.

Daphne was not exactly born
out of a shell of a marriage.

We loved each other,
all right? That changed.

Those girls are always
gonna be your daughters,

but don't you think you can come in here

and dictate what my life is gonna be.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

These are some of the
lyrics that I was working on.

All right.

Do you remember the melody I was humming?

Yeah. It was kind of a
love song vibe, right?

Uh, no.

I'm not interested in love songs.

Country music staple, isn't it?

It's hard to write about
things you don't believe in.

You don't believe in love?

Well, let's put it this way...

pretty much everybody

that has told me they loved
me in my life has lied.

I don't know if it was me or...

they just weren't capable of it. I...

the point is,

I'm pretty damn sure it doesn't exist.

It does.

I've been in love.

And how did that go for ya?

Thanks for coming in today.

- Nice job.
- Thank you.

No. No.

- They're all really talented guys.
- Yeah.

I'm just not... I'm not feeling it.

- Star power.
- Right.

We gotta find the right
person. All right, 0 for 10.

- Tomorrow's another day.
- Okay.

Excuse me, Ms. Jaymes?

- Yeah?
- Name's Will Lexington.

We met the other night
at the Edgehill party.

I'm Scarlett's friend.

Right. I remember.

Well, you'll remember me
for a lot more than that

if you allow me five minutes of your time.

Hey, I'm sorry. Will, is it?

Listen, why don't you just,
uh, let us listen to your demo

and then we'll circle back to you, okay?

Look... look, I... I've
been waiting outside till

you saw everybody you needed
to see before busting in here.

And I'm pretty sure you didn't find

anything close to what you're looking for.

Well, we saw a lot of talented guys today.

No, you saw a lot of guys in
boots they bought downtown.

What you haven't seen

is somebody who can actually rope a steer.

You're listening to Vandy Radio,

and I'm here with local
artist Gunnar Scott.

Tell us what inspired your
song "Gun for a mouth."

Just kinda...

came to me one night.

It feels a little outside the law,

a little dangerous.

I like to do what I want.

Just trying to get that into my music.

That must affect your romantic life.

Do you wanna comment on that?

Let's just say I do what I want there, too,

if you get what I mean.

Gunnar's gonna be performing tomorrow

at the bar on 2nd.

That's enough of that.

We gotta get his demo to Marshall.

- If I can find it.
- Find it.

Tell me you've got the video.

He never showed up.

Why don't you just call him?

Why don't we think about that? Oh, right.

Because he uses a different
disposable phone every day.

He may have gotten spooked,

or maybe something happened to him.

Maybe he got hit by a bus,

and all my problems will be solved.

I don't recognize the number.

- Put it on speaker.
- Hello?

I know I'm supposed to talk to
your security guy or whatever,

but I figured I'd cut through the red tape.

- What do you want?
- Well, I... I went to the spot,

saw your guy there with the briefcase

with the $2 million. He was on time.

That's all great,

but that's when I
realized I made a mistake.

The price is going up.

I'm gonna need $10 million.

You're insane.

Well, somebody out there
understands the value

of this thing on the Internet.

And I know how important
the C.M.As are to you.

$10 million.

Tomorrow,

same place, or you're not gonna like

the questions you get on the red carpet.

It would've just been cheaper

for you to go to A.A.
like every other addict.

As key members of the board,
I felt it was important

that you know where the company stands

from my perspective as C.F.O.

And the truth is, I fear
we're at a crossroads.

Yes, my father has
survived his heart attack,

but he's a long way from full recovery.

Cut to the chase, Tandy.

Are you asking for our support

if you make a motion to replace lamar?

I'm asking for your support

should my father decide to
transition to chairman emeritus.

If he "decides"?

What you really want is
for us to endorse a coup.

Well, someone has to
protect Wyatt Industries

and all its holdings.

I'm not sure this is
pure concern on your part.

But given Lamar's age and circumstance,

it's clear a change should be made.

Let's make sure we do this with grace.

Nobody wants to feel stabbed in the back...

even if that's what's happening.

Nice interview.

You were listening?

Yep. Tend to support the people I'm dating,

but according to you, we're not
dating, so that was pointless.

I'm just... I'm...

What, doing what you want?

Trying to build a following, all right?

- Jack says if I can...
- I don't care what Jack says.

I care about you.

And I don't understand this
whole thing you're doing.

I don't... I don't get it.

What? It's... it's not a big deal.

It's stolen lyrics, a whole new wardrobe,

and a fake past.

It's not all fake, Scarlett. You know that.

You walked away from the kind
of life that your brother led

because you know that
it only ends in grief.

You might wanna consider doing that again.

And, you know, if the Opry
is not outlaw enough for you,

you don't have to come. That is fine.

Oh. Come on.

Scarlett.

You know I would never miss it.

We gotta get him vetted, but he is our guy.

With a... with a week to spare.

Yeah.

In fact, tonight,

when I introduce Scarlett at the Opry,

I'm just gonna go ahead
and announce the new label.

Sure. I don't know about his name, though.

- Lexington? It's like a...
- Lexington is such a good Southern name.

- You think?
- Yes!

- Rayna Jaymes?
- Yes.

You've been served.

What?

What's it say?

It says I'm not allowed to have the girls

within 100 feet of Deacon Claybourne.

A restraining order?

I took the necessary action
to protect my children.

Deacon has been around our
girls their entire lives.

Yeah, and so have I, but I'm not anymore,

and I'm not gonna take the chance

that without me there to
safeguard their well-being...

Oh, no, this has nothing
to do with the girls.

This is about your ego and your fear.

No, Rayna. I'm doing this
because I don't trust you.

This is never gonna stick.

I'm the mayor of this city.
So trust me, it'll stick.

What happened to you?

I took your father's
advice, and I grew a pair.

Long time, pretty lady.
Glad to sse you back.

You got the oxy?

I do. One moment.

- How much?
- $30 a pop.

I need something else, too.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Last night was a lot of fun, wasn't it?

- It was.
- How'd Teddy take it after?

He didn't take it great. He has issued

- a temporary restraining order.
- What?

Yeah, I'm not allowed to have
the girls within 100 feet of you.

Are you kidding me?

You know, he's... hurt. Lashing out.

- Crazy.
- I still see you, right?

Mm-hmm.

Am I gonna see you at the
C.M.A. rehearsals today?

- Yeah, you will.
- All right.

I'll see you there.

- Hey, you know what?
- What?

- I love you.
- Love you, too.

- Mom?
- Hey.

Who were you just talking to?

You just standing there, eavesdropping?

No. But I heard you say, "I love you."

Why don't you come sit?

Um...

I was talking to Deacon.

Since you heard all that, uh, you...

I want you to know that we
are... we're seeing each other.

You used to date him,

- right before you married dad.
- Mm-hmm.

Is that why dad got so mad
when he saw Deacon here?

You know, hon, all this stuff
that you're asking me about?

It's really grown-up stuff.

And it's private.

So I want you to trust me

that when I think you're old enough,

I'm gonna tell you all about it.

Guess what?

- I auditioned for Rayna Jaymes.
- What?

I showed up at that private
session you told me about.

- Oh, my God. I did not tell you to do that.
- No, it's fine.

She remembered I went to the,
uh, Edgehill party with you.

And, uh...

I'm pretty sure she liked me.

Oh! Damn, you have got some moxie.

And you're just being yourself, aren't you?

- That's refreshing.
- Meaning what?

I don't know.

- Did you hear Gunnar on the radio?
- No.

I did.

It's like this whole outlaw
thing has gone way too far.

Well, maybe you could talk
to him. He listens to you.

I don't know, Scarlett.

You used my name to go see Rayna Jaymes.

It's the least you could do.

All right.

Thank you.

"Juliette, did you know that

the C.M.A. Award for
vocal group of the year

has been won seven times by female groups?"

Uh... wait. Do I really have to say that?

We'd like for you to stick to the script

if at all possible, Ms. Barnes.

Really?

Even if it's dumb? I
mean, who talks like that?

Let's take it from the top, okay?

Oh. Uh, okay.

"Juliette, did you know that

the C.M.A. for vocal group of the year

has been won seven times by female groups?"

"Hmm. Maybe we should form a group."

"Well, you know I'd love to,

but I think I'm washing
my hair that night."

Pause for laughter, then...

"This year, the nominees are... "

I'm sorry. This is stupid.

It's just stupid.

Okay. Let's take a break.

Oh, what, are y'all together now?

We've always been friends.

- Uh-huh.
- Water?

Mm-hmm. Thank you very much.

- Appreciate that.
- Uh, this water's too warm.

Are you new or incompetent?

I'm... I'm sorry, Ms. Barnes.

Are you kidding me?

Complaining about the water and the lines?

Can you be professional for once?

You know what? I will,

when I get a little respect around here,

whether it be from the P.A.

or the country music association.

You gotta earn that.

Let me tell you a little secret...

if you do happen to win that award,

it doesn't mean you've earned anything.

Thank you.

Join me at the bar, buy me a shot,

stick around for some more.

What the hell you doing here?

Thought I'd come check out
your show, see how you're doin'.

You know, this probably ain't

the best place for you to be right now.

What's that supposed to mean?

That hat and that buckle.

It's not your scene, man.

Yeah, well, I got news for ya.

Probably not the best
place for you, either.

You know what? I wanna do this, okay?

I have to do this.

So why don't you back
off, let me finish my set

so I can get to the Opry
to see Scarlett, okay?

You gonna show up like this?

Where'd you do time?

What?

All that singing about prison...

what I wanna know is where you did time.

Or if you even did.

You know what?

It's none of your damn business.

That's what I thought.

You think you're some kind
of tough guy. Give me a break.

Hey, hey, buddy. Why don't you just, uh...

keep your mouth busy

with the cheap beer you've been sucking on?

Hey!

Your accountant said to come
up with the $10 million in cash,

you'd have to liquidate
some of your securities...

several stocks, bonds, mutual funds.

But that would do it.

Yes, but will it satisfy him?

Addicts are never satisfied.

She would know.

He's never gonna stop, is he?

You don't deserve this.
You don't deserve any of it.

You didn't do anything wrong.

So I'll go ahead and set up the exchange?

No.

Let him sell the video.

Call "The View." Tell them
I have an exclusive for 'em.

If the world's gonna find out,

- they might as well hear it from me.
- Baby, you don't want this.

What... what about your new
album? What about the C.M.As?

Mama, they've already
counted the votes, okay?

I either won or lost.

- But, baby...
- Look, this way, he makes less money, okay?

And the world just finds
out what they already know.

I'm a train wreck.

Y'all can go.

You, too, mama.

I'm gonna take a bath,
clear my head for tomorrow.

Look at you... reading, drinking tea.

I think Tandy's right.
You are starting to relax.

Your sister just likes to think

she knows me better than I know myself.

Uh, sit down, please.

Thanks.

I can only stay a second.

I'm on my way over to the Opry, so...

I realize I have not asked you for a favor

since I was 16 years old.

I am well aware of that.

Yeah, well...

Uh...

Teddy has, uh...

served me with a restraining order.

He wants to force me to
keep the girls away from...

Deacon.

Honey, his rationale doesn't matter to me.

Don't you worry about it.

- I'll take care of it.
- Thank you.

That's what happens

when you move 'em up the ranks quickly.

They get too big for their britches.

Well, it's gonna be a great night.

You're gonna be amazing out there

with this, uh, incredible band in there.

- Hi!
- Hey.

You're gonna have such a good time,

you're gonna forget
there's even an audience.

I highly doubt that.

Hey, Steve. How you doing, man?

- Deacon. How are you?
- I'm good. Good to see you.

- Good to see you.
- Scarlett, welcome to the Opry.

Mr. Buchanan, such a pleasure to meet you.

Thank you for having me.

- Please, call me Steve.
- Okay.

So this is the "into the
circle" dressing room,

reserved for artists
making their Opry debut.

- That's you.
- Okay.

- Make yourself at home.
- Thank you, Steve.

- Thanks, Steve.
- Good to see ya.

I don't feel like I belong here.

I'm pretty sure they all felt that way.

But you do.

And I'm proud of you.

Thank you.

Just your mama could've been here.

Me, too. Her boss is such a jerk, but...

she needs that job, so...

Yeah. Well, if it's any consolation,

I'm here.

I'm so glad.

Girl, you are shakin'.

Yeah.

Look, I'm gonna go get you

- some of that herbal tea you like, all right?
- Peppermint.

- All right. Peppermint. Okay.
- Thank you.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

Hey, it's Gunnar. Leave a message.

Hi, baby, it's me.

If you're out in the audience
or... or somethin' close by,

can you give me a call so I can...

bring you backstage? 'Cause I...

I just really, really,
really want you here.

Okay, I love you. Bye.

- Scarlett O'Connor?
- Yes, ma'am.

Guy in the audience asked
me to give this to you.

Thank you.

What time do you think it is?

She's probably just about to go onstage,

if that's what you mean.

Juliette?

No. She changed her mind.

She's not giving you any... anymore,

now that you've raised the price.

Jolene?

I've got the...

$2 million

that her guy was gonna bring you yesterday.

If you come over, I'll...

give it to you if you
give me that S.D. thingy.

Why should I trust you?

She triggered you.

I don't want her getting away with that.

I don't want her...

shuttin' you out like she does to me.

Then why do you want that S.D. card?

'Cause I love you. I love you.

And I always have.

And the thought of you
being with her sexually...

makes me sick.

Where you at?

Somebody that I trusted

videotaped us sleeping together.

And then he tried to blackmail me,

hoping that I would do anything

to make sure that footage
never wound up on the Internet.

I've made a lot of mistakes,

but this time,

I'm not so different from...

anybody else out there.

I fell for the wrong man,

and, uh...

he broke my heart.

That was amazing.

How you feel about it?

Uh, embarrassed.

Stupid.

Well, you shouldn't.

For what it's worth, you're
the bravest person I know.

Thanks.

I wanted to come out tonight

because I wanna make a
very special announcement,

and I wanted my friends here at the Opry

to be the first to hear.

I'm about to launch a
brand-new record label

called Highway 65 Records.

This is a lifelong dream of mine,

and I'm just so excited about it.

And, uh, I have a very
special guest here that

I would like for you to give
a very warm Opry welcome to.

She is a wonderful, exciting new artist,

and her name is Scarlett O'Connor.

Hi!

Oh! Thank you.

Oh.

Hi!

It's such an honor to
stand here on this stage

in front of y'all. Thank
you so much for having me.

Thank you so much!

Thank you, guys.

Thank you.

Good night, Nashville.

You're high.

So are you.

I didn't come here to
reconnect. Where's the money?

Where's the S.D. card?

Money first.

Actually, you're not gettin' a cent.

What are you doing, Jolene?

Sparing my daughter the humiliation

of having to go on television

and explain to people
what you've done to her.

That's your plan? I can sell this thing

and have it all over the Internet

before you can snort another pill.

Give me the S.D. card.

Don't be stupid, Jolene.

Your Honor, my children
call him "Uncle Deacon."

But he's not their Uncle.

Well, he's not a threat, either.

The mayor alleges that Mr.
Claybourne is an alcoholic.

He's a recovering alcoholic.

He has not had a drop in 13 years.

Your Honor, I've included
a magazine article

in my complaint which disputes that.

A hearing within a day of being served?

I wonder whose daddy got
us on the docket so quickly.

Mr. Wyatt did place a call to my chambers,

saying that both his daughter and the mayor

would prefer privacy in this matter.

How thoughtful of him.

Okay. After careful review, I've determined

that this case requires
more than any sort of...

temporary action or sidebar could solve.

Plus I'm gonna reset

your custody arrangement
without restrictions

and dissolve this
temporary restraining order.

We'll revisit this in
full court in two weeks.

I'll see you both then.

Thank you, sir.

There are several issues in front of us

that materially affect
the future of this company.

Daddy.

I've missed one too many of these meetings.

It's, uh... high time I came back to work,

don't you all think?

You seem to be in my seat.

Now...

where were we?

Hmm?

It's your mother, but you're
on in five at "The View."

Hold on. Where the hell have you been?

Baby, I'm sorry.

Look, I know I've always
been a disappointment to you.

- I know that.
- Ma, what's wrong?

Um... look, you gotta promise me

you're not gonna go on that show, okay?

Why... are you at the apartment?

Are you using?

You know, I don't know if I ever told you,

but when you were a little
girl, you had this...

this... beautiful light about you.

Mama?

Cancel "The View."

Thanks for having my back back there, man.

I'm sorry it landed us here.

Oh.

Not my first time in jail.

Probably not my last.

Doesn't seem much like you, though.

Yeah.

I don't know what's like me anymore.

Hey, man, I'm really sorry about...

hat thing I did.

I overreacted.

I was just, uh... surprised.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yep.

You know, when I was
17, my dad caught me...

with a friend.

He... grabbed my ass,
threw me in the truck.

He drove me out to the
middle of the nowhere,

told me to explain myself.

I told him I couldn't,

'cause I don't know what
was going on with me.

He told me...

"can't live under my roof
while you figure it out."

So what'd you do then?

Oh, I hitched a ride to Abilene, got a job,

bought a guitar. I haven't been home since.

You ever figure out the
answer to his question?

Shoot, man. All I know
is, uh, only time I'm happy

is when I'm up onstage playing and singing.

I'm gonna be a country music star.

I'll do whatever it takes to get there.

Me, too.

Mama?

Mama?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

Mama?

Mama! Wake up!

Mama?

Mama!

No!

So they dropped the charges?

Nope.

You're getting bailed out.

I'm-a pay you back.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Come on.

- Look, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
- Please, I'm so tired. I'm so tired...

- I didn't mean for it to happen.
- I've tried fix it, and I can't.

What do you mean?

If I'm gonna bail you out,
then I can't be around this.

What?

I can't be with you like this.

No.

- Yeah.
- No.

I know you love him,
and I know you miss him.

Look at where we are.

- Look, wait. No, you need to...
- No, no.

I fell in love with you, not your brother.

A tragic turn in the life

of country-pop diva Juliette Barnes.

The singer's troubled mother,

long-term drug user Jolene Barnes,

is suspected of shooting and killing

sober companion Dante Rivas,

before overdosing in an
apparent murder-suicide.

Police insist the investigation is ongoing,

but there is speculation
that both Rivas and Barnes

were under the influence of narcotics...

Hey.

What do you want?

I wanna talk to you.

I want us to try to come to
some kind of understanding

like reasonable people.

I know you're scared. I
know what you're scared of.

You will always be Maddie's father.

- You're damn right.
- I know.

You trusted me her whole life

to not do anything to compromise
your relationship with her.

You gotta keep trusting me.

I will not harm that.

Okay.

Thank you.

Talia?

Yeah, I'm fine.

It's just that I found this paternity test,

and...

I don't think that my dad is my father.
