"*NASHVILLE* Season 05 Episode 10 "I'll Fly Away Synchronized by srjanapala" "We had some good years together, me and Rayna." "I mean, with the girls." "How long did they let you out for?" "Just three days." "Standard bereavement leave." "So where's Deacon?" "He's still in his bedroom." "Hardly had a word with him." "I don't know what's gonna happen." "You know, everyone will somehow go on." "Isn't that what we're supposed to do?" "I mean, the girls." "I'm worried." "Deacon is barely functioning." "We've got the lawyers tomorrow," "And all the highway 65 stuff to deal with." "I just think Deacon's not gonna be able to cope with anything like that right now." "I know." "And Zach just told me that highway 65 just bought wheelin' dealin' records." "And that that payment's due for starters." "I think for now," "You and I should be the ones to handle all of this." "You're hungry, huh?" "I know." "You know you're hungry." " Oh!" " Hey!" "Good news." "You're on." "CMT said yes." " You're kidding me!" " No." " That's amazing!" " (laughs)" "They loved the idea." "We'll give them a call tomorrow to work out the details, but it is happening." "Glenn, you're the best!" "Thank you!" "Hey, monkey!" "Where's your cup..." "Take care now." "Thanks..." "You too." "Hey, I was wondering." "Am I still in your phone?" "Yeah, of course you are." "Okay." "Good to know." "I just..." "I didn't think it'd be right" "With us working together." "Well, I am not exactly one to stand on ceremony," "If you know what I mean." "Yeah." "I think I do." "Hey, have you seen Clay anywhere?" "No." "How you holding up?" "I'm not." "I just look like I am." "You remind me so much of Rayna." "Thank you." "You have her fire." "Why can't everybody just go home?" "Let's just get you to bed, sweetheart." " I'm not even sleepy." " I know, baby." "Have you seen Clay anywhere?" "No, I haven't seen him in a while, sorry." " There you are." " (door closes)" "Hey." "I'm sorry." "I just had to get out of there." "You're not even gonna say goodbye?" "No, of course I was, I just..." "I didn't know what I was supposed to do in there." "Well, can you come back in?" "Look, I'm so sorry." "I know you're in pain." "I just..." "You can go." "Look, maddie, I want to be here for you." " I do, it's just..." " No, I'm good." "It's fine." "Look I'm s..." "I'll call you." "You okay?" "Uh, we still got a few working bathrooms." "And, I can't find bucky anywhere." "And somebody lost their car keys." "You must be exhausted." "Let me make you some tea."

"I'm sorry we meet under these circumstances." "All right, I'll just get right to it." "We have an unusual situation here." "It appears the deceased had not appointed guardianship for the children." "And subsequently for the estate prior to her death." "That's unbelievable." "But not uncommon." "We find that when people remarry, they may take some time to reappoint guardianship." "When an estate is in probate, we need to establish guardianship" "Both for the children and for any businesses such as Highway 65." "Usually, guardianship of the children and the business is held by the same person until they become of age." "It's imperative that this be established" "As soon as possible." "Well, Daphne is my daughter and Maddie too, for that matter." "I legally adopted her." "It's not that simple." "Actually, Mr. Conrad is correct." "He is Daphne's biological father." "And he is legally Maddie's adopted father." "I was about to say that this can be contested by anyone who feels they have the right to do so." "If the guardianship is contested by anyone, a court date will have to be set." "and a judge will hear testimony in order to reach a decision." "Testimony from whom?" "The children mostly." "It's not 100%, but a judge would definitely factor in what the children have to say about this." "I feel numb." "Right now, all I can think about is Daphne and maddie." "Deacon hasn't said one word to me about the girls." "I don't know what to do." "Well, my lawyers say I'll be out in three months." "The point is, I'll definitely be back here soon." "Thank god." "The girls have been with you from the beginning." "You should be their guardian." "And what about Maddie's testimony in court about Deacon?" "What?" "No!" "None of that was even true!" "You can't hold that against him!" "I won't let you!" "There's more to it than that, honey." "How can you possibly decide this for us?" "Look, it's not just me." "We all have to agree." "How's that ever gonna happen?" " Dad?" " Yeah?" " Dad, I'm so scared." " Come here, baby..." "No, listen." "Teddy and Tandy are saying that you aren't fit to be my father." " Is that right?" " Yes." "Teddy thinks he should be our guardian." "They're planning to do something behind your back." "Ain't nothing like that is gonna happen." "No, something bad is going to happen!" "I know it!" "You have to do something right now!" "I'll figure this out, okay?" "(sighs)" "Okay, thank you, yeah." "It's good." "Yes, I will." "Was that your parole officer?" "It's confirmed." "I'm gonna be out in three months." "That's wonderful." "What's all that?" "Oh, just some papers that the lawyer gave me." "I'd like to take a look at 'em." "Of course." "We should all look at them together." "And it looks like I'm gonna be here to handle whatever needs to be done, so..." "Yeah." "Congratulations on being released from prison." "Deacon, Teddy's just trying to help." "We know that you're not up for this right now." " I mean, who would be?" " I would be." "Highway 65 needs a steady hand." "We want to make sure that we don't lose everything that Rayna worked so hard for." "You don't think that's what I want?" "Rayna was my wife, right?" "We discussed every single business decision ever made at Highway 65." "Well, then you'll remember That I put millions of dollars of my own money into Highway 65." "And I'd really like to see that it succeeds." "I just think you both need to back off" "A little bit, that's all." "Well, I guess we'll just have to see what the judge has to say about all this." "Yes." "Let's do that." "I'm looking forward to it." "I just don't really know what's going on with you, with me, or... anything right now." "So just call me, okay?" "Hey." "MADDIE: (groans) I want to run away." " You can't." " I know." "I just don't want to deal with anything right now." "Why is everybody whispering around here?" "Seriously, what is going on?" "Aunt Tandy and Teddy and dad, they're all trying to figure out who our guardian should be." "And if they can't agree, then a judge has to decide." "I just want mom." "Me too." "I dreamt last night that she was still alive." "I heard her singing." "I heard her too." "What do you think that means?" "I don't want to choose who my dad's gonna be." "I don't think it's really gonna be our decision anyways." "That's why I'm so scared." "What if the judge says you go with Deacon and I don't..." "No." "Listen, Daphne," "I would never let them split us up, I promise." "What if you can't stop them?" "That was her favorite." "Deacon, we have to talk." "About what?" "Giving up my girls?" "(sighs)" "Here's what's true, Deacon." "You're a musician." "You love music." "And you play the hell out of it." "But you couldn't run highway 65." "Not on your very best day." "And, of course, you love the girls, absolutely." "But are you ready to raise them by yourself, without Rayna?" "Taking care of every little thing that they need?" "I don't think so." "And if this thing's going to court," "I think any judge will agree." "Now do you really want to put the girls through this?"

"(sighs)" "I know this is so difficult, right now." "I just want you to know that I love you," "And that I'm here for you." "I love you too." "I know that we haven't got to see each other a lot." "But my memories of you and your sister are the only thing that kept me sane" "While I've been..." "While I've been gone." "Look, your aunt Tandy, and hey, we've been talking." "And we think it would be best if I took care of you and Daphne because I can." "Hey, Deacon." "You really are low." "I'm just telling her the truth." "You're trying to manipulate my daughter, that's what..." "No, no, hold on..." "I'm not trying to manipulate..." "Get out." "Now, Teddy, get out." "I was there for her for 17 years." "And on top of that, I was never declared a threat to my daughter in a court of law!" "Are you gonna hit me?" "Huh?" "Is that what you want to do?" "Maddie, let's go." "Hi." "I, um..." "I got your message." "I didn't think you'd come." "Well, I thought that's what you wanted." "I didn't really know what I wanted." "(door closes)" "It's really good to see you." "I've been thinking about you so much." "And, like, remembering when my mom died." "I never dealt with it." "People just kept telling me to be a man." "Whatever that's supposed to mean." "I just... i figured a man" "Wasn't supposed to feel anything." "You were all alone?" "Thing is that's exactly what I did to you." " I let you down." " No, you didn't." "I just..." "Really wanted you to be my side, that's all." "Look, I can do that." "Maddie, I can definitely do that." "Okay." "Good, because this really hurts." "It's an unusual place to hold a business meeting." "Yeah, I like to change things up." "Art inspires me." "And..." "This isn't a business meeting." "Yeah, I know." "I'd love to take you to Berlin sometime." "They have amazing museums." "you are something else." "Really?" "Well, I think you must know that." "People are probably pretty overwhelmed by you." "You mean who they think I am." "You know, you have a surface too." "Would you like to be judged by it?" "Let's see, um..." "Gorgeous, happy." "Anything going on up there, though?" "All right, I see your point." "But there is a balance of power thing happening here." "That I'm kind of uncomfortable with." "Yeah, I know." "We've established that." "But what's really wrong with a few perks if it's easy for me?" "Why do you feel like you always give people something?" "'cause I'm a dweeb." "Okay?" "I want people to like me." "I think you're doing pretty well." "I'm just being honest with you." "I think..." "You think too much, will." "Look, every single one of us knows that we're gonna die." "And armed with that information, we're supposed to somehow go on living." "That, my friend, is a reason to try to go through life in pairs." "if you go through at all." " What is it?" " I just listened to my session." "And?" "So strange to hear me singing Rayna's song." "Yeah, I can imagine." "But you are singing it for her." "I just don't want to let everybody down." "Look, Juliette," "This isn't about you at the end of the day, right?" "It's about Rayna." "And as long as you keep that as your focus, everything's gonna be fine." "You have to eat something." "I never want to eat another casserole in my life." "I wish none of this was happening." "I know." "It's a lot to deal with." "At first, we have to get through the cmt tribute to your mom tomorrow." " I'm not going." " Sweetie..." "Why should we have to show how we feel in public?" "Because your mother meant the world to so many people." "And it would help them to see us together coming out for her." "She wouldn't make me go." "But she would want you to." "You don't know everything about her, okay?" "Well, maybe not." "But she was my sister." "And we shared things that only sisters can know about." "And you know what I'm talking about." "Well, that went well." "I miss seeing her in the kitchen." "You okay, baby?" "Why did mom have to die?" "I don't know." "Life can be so very beautiful, and then..." "Really cruel." "It's hard to understand" "Why some things happen to some people and not to others." "But why are we even alive if we have to die?" "I believe we are..." "We're all here for a reason." "We all got these lights inside of us." "We've got to let them shine" "The best we can with the time we've got." "And your mama, she shined so bright." "And the brightest part of her life was you and your sister." "She just thought the sun rose and set in your eyes." "I don't know how to pick who my dad's gonna be." "It's gonna be all right, sweetheart." "I promise you that it's gonna be all right." "No, it's not." "If I choose my dad," "Deacon and Maddie's gonna hate me." "I choose Deacon, my dad's gonna hate me." "Either way, I lose." "(sighs)" "Tandy, can you please take the girls to their seats?" " Sure." " Be right there." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "These girls are going through hell." "Anybody can see that." "It's hard enough on 'em as it is without all this crap we're putting them through." "See, the thing is, I feel like their father." "I do." "But we got to put an end to this" "For their sake." "Why don't you go ahead and be the guardian?" "Um..." " Thank you, Deacon." " Yeah." "Really, I don't know what to say, just..." "Yeah, thanks."
