Get my sister!
Hi!
Hey, George Jones.
I missed you, too.
Oh, Baby Girl!
We weren't expecting you until next week!
- Surprise! - Yay!
Baby!
Mom!
Oh, baby, you're home!
[♪]
Here you go.
Have you seen our Instagram?
She's got 563 followers.
And the new logo.
It's on the website, too.
I liked the old logo.
Well...
Why'd we need a new one?
Just let the poor girl eat, alright?
Sorry.
The sauce tastes different.
Did you change Grandpa's recipe?
No, not exactly.
What does you mean, "not exactly"?
Oh, Callie.
We ran out of Grandpa Tucker's original recipe,
like, six months ago.
So now it's store-bought.
Shipped from New Orleans.
- Store-bought? - Mm-hmm.
Seriously?
What happened to Grandpa's recipe?
Oh, we can't seem to find it now,
can we, Willa?
You lost it?
I didn't lose it.
Dad never wrote it down.
Well, if you would just clean out your desk drawers
just once in a blue moon,
My desk is a pristine palace compared to yours.
Well, at least you two haven't changed.
Yeah.
What about Tucker's Fall Music Festival?
Oh, of course!
That is a Tucker's tradition!
Yeah, but so is Grandpa's sauce, Aunt Willa.
You can't serve store-bought at the festival,
and you know it.
Well, the way the ticket sales are goin',
sauce is the last thing I'm worried about.
I'm going to find that recipe and make a batch.
- He said he'd write it down. - Well, he didn't,
and I have looked everywhere.
Trust me.
[♪]
Ahem.
I reckon we're going to have to talk about this
later, ladies.
How do I look?
Alright.
Honey, wait.
Oh...
we should have warned her.
But you said we should mind our own business.
...Hang out next.
I picked every song. I think it's going to be--
[Callie laughing]
[whispers] Guess who.
- Callie! - Hey.
When did you get back?
I just got off the bus.
Are you glad to see me?
Of course!
Welcome home, Callie!
It's so good to see you.
And thank you for your service.
Yeah...
You know, I should have written you about Lynne.
I just--
I'm sorry.
Don't be sorry.
We said no strings, right?
I didn't expect you to wait two years.
It's okay, honest.
Don't beat yourself up.
You know, I took over Brad Oshi's practice,
right after Christmas.
For like the first three months,
I was the only pediatrician in Lockhart,
and...
That ain't an excuse, I'm sorry.
It's okay...
It's okay.
Can we still be friends?
Sure. Of course.
You coming in?
Yeah. In a minute.
[♪]
Take the truck.
Your room's all ready.
And I'll see you back there, okay?
Thanks, Mom.

[man] " Tucker's Roadhouse.
Owned and operated
by guitarist John Wakefield Tucker.
The cradle of country music,
where Martina McBride was discovered--"
Come on, let's stop.
Don't you want to see where they discovered Martina?
I don't know what a Martina is, Dan.
Don't you want to sample
the "best barbecue east of the river?"
They got live music every night of the week.
There's no stops.
It's just up here on the right. Come on.
When are we going to be in Tennessee again?
It's kind of a once in a lifetime thing, man.
You don't want to be on your deathbed,
thinking you missed a chance to sample historic barbecue.
I'll be on my deathbed soon enough
if I don't show up on time with Jillian's birthday present.
Luke, you've been working non-stop.
You've gotta slow down.
Isn't it your job
to make your clients work more, not less?
Well, your agent is also your best friend,
who doesn't want to see you burn out.
It's not healthy, my friend.
Look! Tucker's! Right here! Come on.
Alright, we'll do your Tucker's.
[engine turns over]
[tires screeching]
[crash]
Are you okay?
- I'm fine-- - Are you sure?
Oh, dear God.
Great.
I think we're okay, thank goodness.
Callie, what happened?
Are you all right, honey?
I'm fine,
this guy just came flying in--
I'm not sure that I was flying, but okay.
Well, it is a parking lot.
Well, as long as nobody's hurt, right?
We're at fault. We're at fault. We're sorry.
We were flying.
Again with the flying?
What am I, a bird?
[Dan] Is there any damage?
No, I think he just hit the wheel.
Listen,
if you find even a scratch,
in even a month,
don't hesitate to call me, okay?
My name is Dan Cartwright, I'm his agent.
- His agent? - Yeah.
Luke is an award-winning television director.
Again, if there's any repairs needed at all,
we promise that we'll pay for it--
and thank you for your service!
Do you represent musicians, Mr. Cartwright?
Oh, my gosh.
Come inside.
Best barbeque east of the river.
- Willa! - What?
You might find your next Grammy winner
right here at Tucker's!
Unfortunately, we're kind of on a tight schedule.
[car engine failing to start]
Daniel.
Yeah?
Yeah, the car's not starting.
Oh...
Looks like you'll have some time after all.
[♪]
You gonna eat that?
♪ There's a place I go
♪ A place only I know...
Sorry, boys.
Looks like that pyro switch knocked out your power supply.
Can you fix it?
It's kind of a...
a birthday present for my girlfriend.
I could--
if I had the part.
You know classic cars like this, parts are hard to find.
Yeah.
Maybe they got it in Franklin.
I'll give 'em a call tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
Yeah, tomorrow.
Look what time it is.
- I'll get back to you. - Thank you.

Well, my sister was against it,
but I said, the room's just sittin' open,
and people are always looking for vacation rentals,
and when I say Sam Hunt slept here,
I mean, that is no lie.
Of course, he wasn't famous then yet,
bur who cares?
- Sam Hunt. - Yeah, I heard.
So...
here we are.
If you get cold,
there's an extra blanket in the cupboard,
and hangers, soap--
what else?
Thank you very much. Appreciate it.
Oh, my pleasure.
Oh, shower's brand-new.
Really excellent pressure.
And my sister might be singing tonight
if you boys want to come down.
I think we're kind of tired from the drive.
[Willa] Of course.
Well, sleep tight,
don't let the bedbugs bite!
[Dan laughs]
[Willa] Joking!
Okay.
Well, I didn't see this one coming.
Of all the places to get stranded.
[Dan] Come on, buddy. Relax.
[country music playing]
No, I don't think I will relax.
I think I'm going to listen to country music all night
from this bed.
[country music playing]
[thunder rumbling]
[Mom] I thought you'd be asleep by now.
Thanks for not turnin' my room into your sewing room
while I was on tour.
Well, for one thing,
I don't sew.
You know what I mean.
At least something's the way I remember it.
Is this about Joe or the new logo?
It's everything, Mom.
I know it's silly,
expecting to come home
after being gone for so long
and to find things the way I left 'em.
Maybe not silly.
A bit unrealistic.
What are you writing?
I'm trying to remember Grandpa Tucker's recipe.
I always helped him make it.
We'd make a batch every summer, remember?
He'd throw in pinches of this,
dashes of that...
He said he'd write it down.
Oh, honey, I thought he had,
but I have looked everywhere.
I bet I can remember it if I try hard enough.
Our reputation's at stake.
"Best barbecue this side of the river."
I don't care two pins about that.
You know what I care about?
Having you home, safe and sound.
I missed you, Callie.
I missed you, too, Mama.
Stop worrying about some recipe.
And get some sleep.
I'm on a mission, Mom.
No ingredient left behind.
Well, some things don't change.
You're not gonna find it in there,
I already looked.
Doesn't hurt to look again.
Oh, before I forget,
can you--
can you pick up these donations in town?
Sure.
Thank you.
Aunt Willa...
what's this?
Is Tucker's applying for a loan?
The sound system needs an overhaul,
there's no two ways about it.
As a matter of fact,
I'll go to the bank today
to get a low-interest payment plan.
[Luke] Excuse me.
Do you guys happen to have anything for a headache?
Also, this is a gift--
from your dog.
I appreciate the gesture, pal,
but I think it belongs to you guys.
Good morning, Mr. Ellis. How are you feeling?
Rested? How was the mattress?
The mattress was very comfortable,
- thank you, Willa. - [Willa] Good.
How about a fresh cup of coffee?
Good cure for a headache.
That would help. Thank you.
I'll see you two later. Wish me luck.
Good luck.
Alrighty.
You might want to plug your ears.
This is gonna be loud.
What's that?
[grinder whirring loudly]
Almost done!
Unrelated question--
you guys ever think about
sound proofing that room upstairs?
Not a country music fan, I take it.
It's not really on my playlist, no.
You should give it a shot.
Country music is special
because it allows people to share their truth
and to share their stories.
Do all the stories have to be sad?
I think I heard "cheating heart"
at least a hundred times last night.
Open mic night.
The beginners go for Hank Williams.
He's Willa's favorite.
She says he's the Shakespeare of country music.
Does your aunt own this place?
She and my mom do.
That's my Grandpa Tucker.
He passed while I was deployed.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Hey, look,
I want to apologize for yesterday.
I feel like that was my fault.
Okay, I should have been more careful.
I'll take some of the blame.
Driving while being a cry baby.
Cry baby?
Should I ask why?
Not unless you want to hear another Hank Williams song.
Cheating heart?
Not quite.
Joe and I didn't make any promises.
I was deployed for two years.
Can't expect a man to wait that long.
That depends on the man.
High-school sweethearts.
Too young to know our own minds.
Sounds like you're taking it pretty well.
My grandpa always said, "trouble is transportation."
A bad thing can take you to a good place.
Speaking of which,
do you think your truck can maybe take me into town?
Are you callin' my truck a bad thing?
No, ma'am, I'm calling your town a good place.
Nice save.
- Thanks. - Sure, I'll give you ride.
Appreciate it.
You comin'?
Right now?
Mm-hmm.
You want a ride, it's now.
[♪]
♪ Well, it's impossible to win
♪ An argument with you...
Do you mind terribly if we...
just turn this down?
My head is killing me.
Is that all right?
- Sure. - Thank you.
You know, it's not the music giving you a headache,
it's your posture.
What wrong with my posture?
You stick your chin out like a prize fighter
and it constricts your blood flow.
Excuse me?
You're tensing your labii inferioris.
I bet you grind your teeth at night.
You probably need a mouthguard.
How would you know if I grind at night?
Because I'm a DPT.
What's a DPT?
Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Okay. You don't work at Tucker's?
I start my new job at the VA next month, actually,
and I am in charge of the whole ward.
Congratulations.
Am I going to get a bill for this diagnosis?
Complimentary coffee, complimentary medical advice.
- Well, I appreciate that. - [phone ringing]
Can you hold on one sec? Excuse me.
Sure.
Hey, Jillian. Hold on.
Do you mind terribly if we just pull over really quickly?
You... you want me to pull over?
If you don't mind. Please.
Yeah, hold on, hold on.
Is it possible to have some privacy?
Privacy?
Yeah...
uh...
the person I'm talking to is...
I don't know, uh...
a celebrity.
She's shooting a movie over in Hendersonville.
I don't really know how it works with conversations and tabloids.
Yeah, I'll...
I'll give you some privacy.
Oh, thanks.
I appreciate that.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Thanks.
Can you hear me?
Are you there?
Hello? -Jill.
I thought you'd be here by now!
I know. I'm sorry.
There was a delay with your birthday present.
Oh!
What is it?
It's a surprise.
I hate surprises. Just tell me.
Everyone's dying for content of us together.
Well, how about this--
I'll give you a hint.
It's your favorite color.
Green isn't a hint!
That's everything from cucumbers to emeralds!
Your favorite color is blue.
Color's not like a sports team, Luke,
you don't need to be loyal to one your whole life!
Ahem.
Did you read the script?
What's that?
Check your email. I sent you a script.
And guess what?
It's a feature, Luke!
It's a feature?
Wow, okay. That's great!
Me to star and you to direct!
It's called "Island Girl."
All the agents and execs are pushing for us to do it.
[Callie] I've got things to do, come on.
[honks car horn twice]
I'm outta here.
Hey, that's great.
Hey!
It's about a mile from here.
You can walk.
[Luke] What?
See ya!
What are you doin'? Hey! Hey!
Where ya goin'?
I'm gonna call you back.
Sorry, boys.
Still haven't got that pyro switch in yet.
I'm thinkin' fingers crossed for Saturday.
Saturday?
Look, I'm doin' the best I can,
but these classic cars--
hard to find parts for.
I'm thinkin' Wednesday the latest.
What happened to Saturday?
What about a tow?
Classic car, Daniel.
Tow a classic car--
Wait, what about a flatbed?
Vic Foster in Clarksville, he's got a flatbed.
Great idea, Dan.
But he's on the road.
Terrible idea, Dan.
Okay, so we're here for a couple of days.
Just think of it as a vacation. Right, Sully?
What's there to do around Lockhart?
Hey, we got Tucker's Fall Festival
coming up in two weeks.
Did I just hear two weeks?
But that's if we're waitin' for the flatbed.
But I'm thinkin' that switch is gonna come in
Wednesday/Thursday at the latest.
I'll be in touch about the pyro switch.
Still happy we stopped for Tucker's?
Should have got her a diamond tennis bracelet.
Oh, should I have?
I said that, didn't I?
Get her a diamond tennis bracelet.
I don't know, Dan, did you?
You've gotta learn to trust me, man.
This the time?
Okay, look, there's a donut shop, I think,
let's go get a donut.
I don't want a donut, Dan.
My car. I understand. I'm going for a walk.
Donut shop near me.
[♪]
[Callie] Better.
Thought you'd be gone by now.
The car's not ready.
That's too bad.
Yes, it is.
What's all that?
Silent auction for the festival.
It's a fundraiser for the VA.
May I help you carry it?
No, I got it, thanks.
Okay.
Well, at least your dog's a fan of me.
Yeah, well, he chases squirrels.
- Well... - I'm just saying.
He goes for anything that walks.
So you're saying you don't want to join my fan club.
Are you recruiting?
Seems like a bad sign.
Look, I haven't been myself lately.
I'm sorry if I was rude.
If?
Hold on, now, what about you?
You left your guest stranded at the side of the road.
That's bad manners.
Sometimes, bad feels so good.
What do you say we call it even?
I'll think about it.
All right.
For the record, I don't hate all country music.
I like Waylon Jennings.
Liar.
No, I'm telling the truth.
Name one song.
Okay, I can't name the song,
but he recorded it with Willy Nelson,
and the first line
is something about a forgotten dream.
"Good Hearted Woman." I'm impressed.
Yeah, I don't know why
that line's always stuck in my head.
- I do. - Why?
Because it's true to life.
Thank you, Mrs. Parker.
Excuse me.
Do you got any Artemis action figures?
Just that one over there.
They go fast.
Sold out of the lunch boxes the day they came in.
Alright.
Lunch boxes?
T-shirts. hats, mugs.
Don't hate me because I'm collectible.
Artemis is collectible, not you.
Yeah, that's a fair point.
Although I think my name is somewhere on this box.
There it is.
Oh, yeah.
Maybe if I had a magnifying glass.
All right.
I like this guy. It's my favorite.
It's because he reminds me of Gort.
Who's Gort?
The robot?
Klaatu barada nikto?
You've never seen the movie "The Day the Earth Stood Still"?
I'm talking about the original, 1951.
Before I was born.
[Luke snorts]
Okay, maybe, but this is a science-fiction classic,
alright?
Well, I was more into science fact.
Like the knee bone's connected to the thigh bone.
That kind of science.
Here.
For your auction. On me.
So this Gort movie
is a must-see science-fiction film?
Yes. It is right up there with "Blade Runner."
You've never?
"Alien"?
"Terminator"?
You haven't seen any of these movies.
Alright.
I'm gonna make you a must-see list.
Only if I can make you
a "must hear" country music play list.
A cultural exchange program.
I like that.
So you get klaatu barada nikto--
and I get?
"Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain."
Do any of them have a happy ending?
[♪]
[Callie] Come on, we can walk from here.
[Luke] Sure. Where are we going?
The ridge.
You want to understand country music,
you've got to see a little country.
Alright.
[♪]
Well...
take a look.
This is where the music starts.
Wow.
This is something.
My Grandpa Tucker
used to bring me out here when I was a kid.
He let me march with him in the veteran's parade
when I was little.
That's when I knew I wanted to be in the army.
Sounds like he had a big impact on you.
You're lucky to have had someone like that in your life.
He always said to me,
"Now, remember, Callie,
country music is three chords and the truth."
I feel like I haven't taken a deep breath in a long time.
It's just been back-to-back projects.
It's nice to take a moment to clear my head.
You never take time off?
No, not with television, no.
I'm thankful for the success,
but...
it can start to suck you in.
You lose track of who you are.
My Grandpa Tucker always said
success can be your servant or your master.
Tucker's got all the good lines, my goodness.
He does.
What's that?
It's a notepad.
I'm a filmmaker.
You can't keep saying
beautiful Southern things like that
and expect me not to write it down.
Well, it's a good thing my grandpa isn't here.
You'd need a bigger notebook.
Yeah, he's not wrong about the success, you know?
But when you come from where I did,
you have a tendency
to want to hold on to the success very tight.
Even when it feels wrong.
Sometimes, you got to risk it to get the biscuit.
You going to write that one down?
I don't know. Maybe.
[Luke] Thank you. For the lift.
[Callie] Thanks for all your help.
And...
for donating your action figure to the silent auction.
It's a big deal around here.
Just know that if nobody bids on it,
I'm gonna be crushed.
Yeah, well,
I think there are plenty of sci-fi nerds in Lockhart,
rest assured.
Good. I'll see you later?
See you later.
[Luke] Bye, guys.
Wait a second.
I don't need to add Star Wars to the list, do I?
May the force be with you.
Good.
There's hope for you yet.
Glad to hear it.
[Luke] Any word on that pyro switch?
Not since you asked me an hour ago.
That's fair.
Here, will you taste this?
What am I tasting?
I'm trying to recreate my grandpa's recipe.
Okay. Yeah, it's good.
Yeah, but you never had Grandpa's.
Look, I know you want to honor your Granddad,
but the fact that you're actually doing it--
trying--
he'd appreciate that.
He would.
Or maybe he'd want you to walk your own path, no?
Make your own sauce.
- You know what? - What?
You may be a lot smarter than you look, son.
- I'll see you later. - See you, Sully.
I don't know,
if I just got a pat on the back or a punch to the nose.
Take the pat on the back.
He doesn't give those out very often!
[Mom] Hello there, everyone!
Welcome to Callie's homecoming.
We're so proud of you, baby.
And to help celebrate,
I'd like to offer pie and cider.
They are on the house tonight!
[cheering]
[woman] How about a song, Callie?
[man] Come on, Callie, sing us a song.
Oh, and it looks like we have a request,
so I think you will be singing for your supper
after all, Callie.
Come on up!
- [applause] - You sing?
In the shower, sometimes.
And when I was little,
I would occasionally jump on stage
with my grandpa and my mom.
Not anymore.
[cheering]
They're not taking no for an answer.
[cheering]
- I love you. - There you go.
I am...
beyond excited to be home.

My grandpa wrote it...
about this town

And now I'm back,
and he's gone.
You have a really spectacular voice, Callie.
You never thought about singing professionally?

[Callie] Sure.
Hey, Jill.
Luke!
Why aren't you here yet?
Yeah, I'm still in Lockhart. I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Did you read "Island Girl"?
"Island Girl"?
Yeah, no, I read the script.
I read...
I read it twice, actually.
There are some ideas there that we need to discuss,
for sure, but...
Well, about that...
I've already signed on.
You'll be getting an offer.
Three months together in Hawaii.
It's hard to say no when you put it like that,
but...
Look, the first half is okay, I suppose, but...
I went to bat for you, Luke.
I mean, this is your chance to break into feature films!
It's what you want, isn't it?

I've tried doubling the honey,
I've tried with and without garlic--
just something's missing.
Maybe you...
you make your own.
Risk it to get the biscuit.
- Risk it to get the biscuit? - That's right.
And, no.
It's a Lockhart tradition-- my grandpa's barbeque,
and I have to get it right before the Fall Festival.
You've been gone for a long time, right?
Not everything's gonna be the same.
Some things change. That's life.
Some things never change.
Name one.
Well...
how I feel about this town,
and the people here,
and my family,
and the fact
that we're always there for each other.
That will never change.
Sounds silly to you, doesn't it?
No, actually, it sounds very nice.
Just not sure I've ever had that.
I'm sorry.
I survived.
[screams]
It's okay. It's all right, it's all right.
Are you okay?
Uh-huh.
Come here. Do you have a first-aid kit somewhere?
- Under the sink. - Great.
Give me your hand.
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.
This is going to be nice,
but it's going to hurt a little bit at first.
- Okay, okay, okay. - You ready?
- Hoo. - You all right?
Hold it there.
Who catches barbeque sauce on fire?
You do.
I swore I get it right before the festival.
And I swore that I would have an Academy Award
by the time I was 30.
Things...
don't always go as planned,
but that's all right. That's life.
That's what makes it interesting.
If you thought that I would be
in a roadhouse diner at 2:00 in the morning
wrapping a tiny, little hand in gauze, you would be wrong.
I didn't know that.
And it's interesting?
Yeah, it is.
I'm gonna tuck this in right here.
How's that?
- Well, I'd better... - Yeah, sure.
Clean up.
For what it's worth, some change is good change.
Just saying.
Oh, and if you do plan on burning down the kitchen,
just let me know so I can drag Dan out.
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
[Sully] That right tire is balding.
You got time, I can do it right now.
Yeah, sure.
Hey, how's Lynn?
Uh...
Honestly, we're taking a bit of a break.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, a little bit more than a break.
Mm-hmm.
You know, when you were eight years old,
you used to come in here
and put two coins in that soda machine there,
and then you'd stand there for about half an hour
deciding which one--
orange or cola, cola or orange--
and then once you picked cola,
you wished you'd picked orange.
Women aren't a can of soda, Joe.
Come on, you can wait inside.
Hey, man, do you know if Sully is here, by any chance?
Yeah, he's just putting on a set of tires,
he shouldn't be too long.
Okay, good.
I don't think we've met.
Dr. Joe Wilkins.
Luke Ellis.
Nice to meet you. I know exactly who you are.
I was there the day you hit Callie's truck.
Hit? Yeah.
Flying.
There were a lot of adjectives thrown around
about what I did that day.
I would use "tap".
I mean...
must be a drag being stuck out here in Lockhart.
Are you Callie's Joe?
Yeah, you could say that.
You know, in a way,
it's kind of your fault that I'm here.
If she wasn't so upset over you,
then she probably would have seen me coming, you know?
Who told you that?
Callie did.
You don't say.
She's been really kind, showing me around.
We've been spending some time together.
It's been nice.
- You and Callie? - Yeah.
Yeah, she's been teaching me about country music.
Barbeque sauce. The Cowboy Cha Cha.
The Fall Festival. Oh, look, there she is now.
If I'm being honest,
it doesn't exactly seem like your sort of thing.
Yeah, you're not wrong.
There's something about her, though.
That voice, my gosh.
There's got to be a catch, though, right?
I'm sure you've got your reasons.
Silly as those might seem now.
I mean, to someone like me,
I just see someone who's beautiful.
Charming.
Lights up every room she walks into.
Maybe that's just me.
We did have some fun making barbecue sauce last night.
- Excuse me. Nice meeting you. - Nice meeting you.
There we go.
[Joe] Hey.
- Hey. - How are you?
- Hey, George. - I'm good.
Listen, I've been wanting to talk to you.
About what?
About us.
- Us? - Yeah, you and me.
The thing is, uh...
Lynn and I are on a break.
Maybe a little bit more than a break.
Oh. I'm so sorry.
Come on, George Jones.
It's okay. Don't be.
It was mutual.
But I've been thinking a lot about us, Cal.
You already said that.
Have you?
Have I...?
Thought about us.
I mean, of course, I have.
Do you want to maybe...
Maybe we could grab dinner?
And catch up?
Let me think about it.
Okay.
[Sully] How's it going, Luke?
You tell me, my friend. You find that switch?
Not yet.
Got one more store I got to check.
Give me a minute.
- Got nowhere else to be. - Alright.
Need a hand?
Yeah, actually.
That would be great.
Hi, George. How you doin', buddy?
Thanks.
So, hey, that was Joe.
Wasn't it?
You two are still in love, I can tell.
Right, sweetheart?
What makes you say that?
Your body language.
Mine or his?
Both.
It's a classic Hollywood moment, you know?
Childhood sweethearts have a falling out,
get engaged to the wrong people,
and realize they're meant for each other.
It's beautiful.
- You're way off. - Am I, though?
Hold on now, here's a guess.
You've got a shoebox under your bed
with every ticket stub and note he ever left you,
am I right?
I do not.
You're a terrible liar.
He just asked you out, didn't he?
What did you say? Did you say yes?
I said I would think about it.
Okay.
Maybe say yes.
Maybe go somewhere romantic.
Everybody likes a happy ending.
This is my life, not some movie you're directing.
By the way,
I think you should stick to science-fiction.
Romantic comedy's not really your thing.
Oh, hold on, now.
I may actually be directing a romantic comedy--
my first film.
Wow. Congratulations.
Yeah.
What's it about?
- Wait, let me guess. - Okay.
- Boy meets girl... - Yeah.
Boy loses girl...
You're right so far.
Boy gets girl back.
Yeah, that's exactly what it's about.
When you put it like that,
it doesn't sound like much, does it?
I guess it depends on the boy and the girl.
Yeah, it really does depend on the boy and girl.
That's the problem.
It's a good opportunity, it's just not a good script.
What's wrong with it?
I don't know.
Maybe I'm just being too critical.
Would you read it?
Me?
Yeah. Fresh eyes. Why not?
I don't know the first thing about the movie business.
You know a good story when you see one.
You just met me, how would you know that?
"Three chords and the truth." I know you know that.
Okay.
I'll read your script.
Okay.
Oh, what's it called?
"Island Girl."
-"Island Girl"? - Yeah.
"Island Girl" is a clunker, George Jones.
He told me to be honest.
You think I should tell him?
George Jones!
Can you grab him?
I got him.
- George! - George Jones!
George!
George Jones, drop it!
I got him. Come here, come here!
[Callie] Drop it!
[cracking up]
Are you enjoying that?
Give me your hand.
Thank you.
Uh...
Want to get a hose?
'Kay.
No, sir.
This is not a toy, you hear me?
[laughs]
Hey, uh...
so I read "Island Girl" last night.
And?
I didn't hate it.
Good. That's a good start.
Maybe you could make it better.
Better?
How do I make it better?
I put some notes on the script that you gave me
and I left it behind the bar.
I hope that's okay.
You made notes?
Yeah.
What are you doing right now? Do you want to go over it?
Sorry, I took your advice.
I have a date with Joe tonight.
Open mic night at the Rusty Latch.
The Rusty Latch?
What, not romantic enough for your Hollywood ending?
I mean, it could use a rewrite.
Hey, here's an idea.
How about you start living your own life
and stop directing mine?
[Luke] Ouch.

[applause and cheering]
[Joe] Remember our first date?
When we cut class to see the concert?
And then we missed the bus on the way home?
Got grounded for a month.
Worth it.
So worth it.
You know, I'm glad we came here.
Luke Ellis said it wasn't romantic enough.
You care what he thinks?
He says that we are the classic Hollywood ending.
High-school sweethearts reunited.
Yeah. He's poking fun at us, Cal.
No.
He doesn't mean anything by it.
I know the type.
He has no respect for you
and no respect for anyone here in Lockhart.
Well...
he let me read his new script.
Does that sound like he has no respect?
Is that why you came out with me here tonight?
Because of a "classic Hollywood ending?"
It's because I have a shoebox under my bed
and I don't know if it's ballast or baggage.
Well, I think the old Callie
would have told him to go mind his own business.
The old Joe would have thought it was funny.
All right, Jill.
Is now a good time to talk about "Island Girl"?
The script needs work.
[Dan] Hey, hey.
Blame me.
Daniel agrees.
He's a television guy.
Can you just hear me out on these notes, please?
The studio loves the script.
Marketing is predicting huge numbers.
It's got nothing to do with marketing.
It has everything to do with characters--
one of which you're playing.
They don't ring true, Jill.
Why are pushing against this big opportunity?
Is something wrong?
No, no, nothing's wrong.
The script is wrong. That's wrong.
Okay, well, you sound grumpy and tired.
Get some sleep.
I... I got to run.
Bye!
Okay.
How far is it to Lockhart?
Where's my shooting schedule?
Well, what we learned here today, Dan,
is that I am tired and I am grumpy
because I want to make a good movie.
Nothing gets past our Jillian.
She can detect the insidious influence
of honest folk and good barbecue.
Look, you know how badly I want to make feature films.
But this is the first one.
You only get one.
If I'm gonna put my name on something,
I've gotta be proud of it, you know?
Of course. I don't disagree.
Callie's notes-- they made me realize
what I was already feeling about this script--
it's got real problems.
Callie's notes?
Yeah.
I asked her to read it.
Take a look.
She nailed it.
It's all flash, no substance.
She doesn't feel like the characters are real.
I don't disagree with her.
And if you don't care about the main characters,
then you don't care about the outcome of the movie.
That's just how it works.
Well, you better not let Jillian know
you're taking notes from Callie.
Just fresh eyes.
Jillian might not see it that way.
What are you talking about?
Fresh, beautiful, blue country eyes.
Callie is on a date...
with her old boyfriend--
of which I may have encouraged,
so you can just calm down.
Okay, well, just do yourself a favor then,
and tell her that I wrote these notes.
Make me be the bad cop.
I'm gonna tell her that I wrote these notes--
because these are my notes.
Callie just...
has a way of saying things.
I just happen to agree with everything she's saying.
'Night, Daniel.
Uh-huh.
- 'Night. - Goodnight.
- Mm. - Ta-dah!
Can you sit?
- For a minute. - All right.
You know, Luke said this was going to be a fun vacation,
and it is exceeding my expectations.
Well, I'm...
glad that you're happy with the accommodations.
And the food.
Thank you.
And I've got no complaints about the company.
Well, I'm happy to hear that.
[♪]
Mom?
What is it?
Is something wrong?
Look.
[gasps]
Grandpa's recipe for his barbecue sauce.
Where did you find this?
In the shoebox under my bed.
[gasps]
He left it...
right where he knew I would find it.
He didn't forget you, Callie.
He didn't forget me.
[♪]
[Willa] Hey, sister?
Hmm?
Advance tickets for the Fall Festival
are not looking good.
It's gonna be a miracle if we even break even.
Maybe we should cancel this year.
Eva, no!
We don't need more debt.
We still owe the bank.
Did you think I wouldn't see the statements?
The whole sound system needs an overhaul,
and you know it.
What we need is customers.
Seems like people outside of Lockhart
just plain forgot about us.
Remember when people used to drive up
all the way from Atlanta?
I wish we had a little bit of money
for, like, a billboard,
or some ads on the radio, or somethin'.
All right, let's not panic.
There's still time.
And don't tell Callie about any of this.
She's making Dad's barbecue sauce,
happy as a clam.
[♪]
I don't know,
maybe I'm overthinking this thing, you know?
Maybe "Island Girl" is fine.
Maybe it's fun.
People like fun. You're pretty fun.
You know you grind your teeth at night, right?
Yeah, I do.
Callie told me I need a mouthguard.
Are you going to take her advice?
About the script?
The mouthguard.
Both. Neither. I don't know. What are you doing?
Where are you going?
Willa offered to show me some hiking trails.
Hiking?
Uh-huh.
Your version of a hike is parking a block away.
Okay, the air is fresher up here.
I don't mind taking a deep breath.
I like this new Dan.
Healthy Dan.
Here we go.
Oh, yeah. Get 'em, Healthy Dan.
[♪]
My friend, would you mind if I get a coffee to go?
Thank you so much.
You will never believe what happened last night.
When's the wedding?
No, I found my Grandpa Tucker's recipe.
No!
Guess where.
Buried in the front yard?
No, wait.
In the backyard?
In the shoebox under my bed.
I know.
You were right.
No way.
If you had never teased me about that shoebox,
I never would have looked there.
You're a hero, you know?
You saved the Fall Festival. Do you understand?
Okay, well, I think I'm getting too much credit here,
but does that mean I get to taste it?
Oh, my goodness. Drumroll. There it is.
Moment of truth!
Oh, hold on. We can't just eat this.
There's got to be, like, a ceremony or something.
Did you need to adjust the lighting as well?
Come on, this is a big deal.
You're right.
Let's say a quick thank you.
I like that.
Go ahead.
You want me to do it?
- I want you to do it. - Okay, I'm gonna do it.
Mr. Master of Ceremonies.
Okay, here we go.
Thank you, Grandpa Tucker,
for instilling in your granddaughter
all of your wisdom,
and for writing down your recipe
and leaving it somewhere
that you knew she would find it.
And thank you
for all the things you didn't write down
that I will never forget.
I like that.
Pow.
Dig in!
Here we go.
Well?
Well, this-- this is like--
if this was a movie, this would be "The Godfather".
I'm guessing that's praise.
You've never seen "The Godfather"?
Come on. Really?
It's the highest praise you can get.
Can I have more?
Thank you.
I think we should be partners in a franchise.
- You do? - Yeah.
If we opened up a place like this in Malibu,
we'd clean up, trust me.
You want to run a bakery?
No, no, no, no. Not run. Own.
Mm!
- A side hustle. - Okay.
And I'd need a good business partner.
Somebody local.
And that would be me?
- That would be you. - Okay.
I could fly you out to LA every few weeks,
we could have a board meeting.
- A board meeting? - Yeah.
Or I could come out here and--
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh?
So, is Tucker's barbecue sauce
the only thing we're celebrating today?
I don't know what you mean.
Oh, don't play coy with me, you know what I mean.
Open mic night at the Rusty Latch.
Come on, how did it go with Joe?
Wasn't a disaster,
but...
it wasn't much of anything.
I'm sorry.
Don't be. I'm not.
You were right, you know?
People change. Things change.
That's life.
You're not disappointed?
I'm learning the difference between ballast and baggage.
One keeps you grounded and one holds you back.
[Jillian] Luke?
Where are you?
Excuse me. Hold on.
Surprise!
Jillian?
What are you doing here?
I wanted to surprise you.
Okay.
- [Jillian] Hi. - Hi.
Mm. This is heaven.
No! No, don't show me pie.
I still have to shoot tomorrow.
I won't fit into my costume!
Are you sure? It's really good.
Ugh.
Maybe just a taste.
Mm!
[Luke] All right,
it's on the way.
My birthday present?
Yes, your birthday present.
But stay where you are.
No peeking.
Alright, I gonna go wait for it out front.
Tell me what it is.
I promise I'll act surprised.
Sorry.
I can't tell you.
It would ruin the surprise.
Luke's a flirt, isn't he?
Did he happen to mention that we're practically engaged?
Yeah, everyone knows you two are an item.
The food here is really great.
Thanks.
It's my grandpa's secret sauce.
No way!
I don't suppose you'd sell me the recipe?
I can't do that,
but I can send you a bottle home.
For nothing.
That's so sweet!
Alright, it's here!
Close your eyes.
If you peek, you don't get to keep it.
I won't peek. See, they're closed.
Maybe don't close your eyes quite so soon.
How about I help you? Take my hand.
Luke, can you take a video?
I need content for my social media.
I want to see my face when I open my eyes.
- Shoot from above. - Yeah, yeah, I got it.
Can I open my eyes yet?
Yes, you can.
Oh, my gosh!
I love it!
Can I drive?
It's your car.
Let's try it out! Come on, get in!
I'll be right back.
I'm just going to take it for a little spin.
[Luke] Okay, I'll see you guys in a bit.
Oh, you want to come?
Uh, no thanks. Y'all go ahead.
- You ready? - Yeah.
Okay.
Whoo-hoo!
See you later!
- See ya. - Bye.
How's it feel?
Amazing!
Good.
So, why didn't you have it shipped out to LA?
- The car? - Yeah.
I thought we'd take a road trip.
- A road trip? - Yeah.
I mean, this is a great toy for Malibu,
but a road trip?
Honey, I can feel every bump!
I thought you said you were in love with it.
I was.
I am!
Listen, we wrap the day after tomorrow.
Why don't you come meet me in Nashville
and we'll fly home in the studio jet?
Now, will you just sign the deal
so we can go to Hawaii and shoot this blockbuster?
Jill, we're going to have to talk
about the script at some point.
Yeah. I'm sure we'll have a million production changes
once we're on location.
Plenty of time to talk about all of that.
You're a wonderful man and a brilliant director.
That's very kind.
We're going places.
Why don't you come with me now?
I'm not leaving your car here.
Let Dan deal with it.
And then you can come watch me film
my big scene with Marco Ray.
Trying to make me jealous?
Well, he does have a little crush on me.
Come on, get in.
I'll see you in Nashville.
Break a leg.
Oh, I forgot my sauce!
Allie said she'd give me a bottle.
Will you remember?
It's Callie.
And yes. Yes, I will remember.
I'll see you Friday. Safe drive.
[♪]
[Luke] Hey, Callie.
Hey.
I'm leaving first thing in the morning,
I just wanted to say goodbye.
Thank you,
for everything.
Including reading that script.
You're right about a lot of things.
A lot of things.
You're just being polite.
No, I'm not. I mean that.
Well, I'm the one who should be saying thank you.
Go ahead.
I don't know how you guessed
about that shoebox under my bed,
but I'm sure glad you did.
I think Tucker's been whispering in my ear.
Maybe.
But I also know
that you never make a promise that you don't keep.
Oh, yeah? How would you know that?
'Cause you promised me a list of country songs
and I know you're gonna keep that promise.
Will you email it to me?
- Really? - Yes.
So, I gotta know,
what ever happened...
to the shoebox under the bed?
I emptied it.
Why's that?
Looking forward, not back.
I am...
gonna keep Tucker's traditions going, though.
I'm sorry you'll miss the Fall Festival.
It's a big deal, huh?
It's my favorite day of the year
since I was a kid,
except maybe Christmas.
All right.
Oh.
You're gonna remember to give me that list?
Are you gonna remember to get a mouthguard?
I will.
Take care.
- Hey, Luke? - Yeah?
Take care.
I will.
[♪]
[Jillian] Can I open my eyes yet?
Oh, my gosh!
I love it!
So, straight to Nashville tomorrow?
No detours?
No detours, pal.
I told Jillian I'd be there waiting.
[♪]
[Mom] Hey.
Did you order those pumpkins from Frank?
I can go pick them up.
Willa's already on it.
Callie?
You never said anything about your dinner with Joe.
Joe's not the same.
And, actually, I'm not the same either.
We are not right for each other anymore.
And what about that director fella?
Luke has gone back to his life
and I am probably never seeing him again,
so...
put him out of your mind,
because that's what I've done.
Okay.
I start my job next month.
I am not gonna have time for much else.
So, please, put down the bow and arrow, Cupid.
- Done. - Thank you.
We have a festival to get ready for.
Yeah.
[♪]
My goodness.
No wonder Callie needed to find this recipe.
Best barbecue east of the river.
Miss those ribs, though.
But I told Willa I'd be back.
Yeah.
Festival or no festival.
No festival? What do you mean no festival?
They haven't sold enough tickets to break even.
Willa thinks they might have to call it off.
No, no. That can't be right.
Callie's been acting like it's all systems go.
She's in the dark.
Eva's hoping for a last-minute box-office rush,
but Willa says
they've been losing money all year.
I mean, locals still come,
but when Tucker died,
he took the mojo with him.
- And Willa told you this? - Mm-hmm.
The entertainment business is rough.
Everybody gets their 15 minutes.
But don't worry, buddy,
I think you've got at least 10 minutes left in you.
Plus, "Island Girl" will get you another 15.
Dan, can you do me a favor,
can you go on Tucker's website
and buy, I don't know, a hundred tickets?
Whatever you think, and just charge it to my card.
You don't think I didn't offer that?
Willa nearly bit my head off.
Why?
They don't want charity,
they want Tucker's full of people again.
There's gotta be something we can do here.
It's too late to hire a publicist,
even if they had the money.
I wish we could help.
Yeah.
How's that?
Does it look even with the others?
Earth to Willa!
Hey, can you help me?
Stop texting Dan for one second.
Look.
Sorry, Callie.
Yeah, perfect.
Wait.
I'm not texting Dan,
I'm...
looking at the ticket sales, and they do not look good.
I'm sure there's nothing to worry about.
There's always a rush at the door.
I wouldn't count on that.
Tucker's has been losing money since Grandpa died.
What are you talking about?
Why didn't anyone tell me?
'Cause your mama didn't want to worry you.
That's why I fixed up the room out back.
I just--
I had to borrow money to do it,
and I was counting on the money from the ticket sales
to get us back on our feet,
and then...
it seems like we're just deeper in the hole.
How deep is the hole?
Not so deep that we'll never climb out.
We're not losing Tucker's, are we?
No, honey, no. Don't look so worried.
We're not upside-down.
It's just-- just a bad patch.
And we need to cancel the festival?
Well, if we don't fill the place,
then we're paying performers out of pocket,
and we just-- we can't afford that.
I'm so sorry.
Well...
if Grandpa Tucker was here, you know what he'd say?
Shoulders back, head high,
there's always next year,
it'll be here before you know it.
He'd say exactly that.
But if you cut this scene,
you lose my speech at the volcano.
Yeah, I know.
You can't just cut and paste this thing.
It's a page-one rewrite.
The studio has committed to this script.
They love it.
If you tell them that you want a rewrite,
then the whole deal could fall apart.
Is that what you want?
I want to make a movie that I'm proud of,
that we're both proud of, that's all.
Just think of it
as a three-month holiday on a beach with me.
They're going to rent us a gorgeous house.
I mean, when are we going to get the chance
to do something like this?
And it's a feature, Luke.
A feature with a big budget.
It's a great opportunity.
I know.
Well, if you won't do it for your career,
then do it for mine.
And I'll owe you a favor.
And you can call it in, any time you want.
A favor?
Name it.
Whatever you want.
But you'll sign the deal.
No more notes!
[♪]
You're smilin'!
Does that mean we sold more tickets?
Luke Ellis emailed me
his top-10 must-see science-fiction films.
Hmm!
Well, I thought you might be hearing from him again.
Oh, he's just being nice.
It doesn't mean anything, Mom.
I'm gonna check the website.
Do you wanna have your coffee first?
No.
If I have to cancel the performers,
I want to know now.
[♪]
And it looks like I'm gonna be makin' those calls.
Okay.
Maybe you can see about refunding the ticket money.
Yes, ma'am.
I'll take care of it.
[Willa] Well, canceled just seems so final.
[Eva] But postponed makes it sound
like we're putting it off for a week.
You know how many calls I got this morning
asking me about the new date?
Oh, honey,
can you take down the posters when you go into town?
Willa wrote "postponed" instead of "canceled."
Well, because "canceled" means final,
and this isn't final.
Sorry, Eva. That was my idea.
Dan, don't pay attention to them.
They're always like this.
I'll take them down, Mom.
It's just I don't want to have to explain to people.
Callie, did you start all that refunding
like I asked you to?
I actually need Willa to show me how.
Oh, no, I can do it. Don't worry.
We are always putting you to work.
[Dan] I don't mind a bit.
Eva?
Can you come here a second?
Something doesn't look right.
[Eva] What doesn't?
Uh... Callie?
[Willa] Look.
How did this happen?
What happened?
Uh, in the last hour,
every ticket to the Fall Festival's
been sold!
- Are you sure? - Look.
We're sold out!
[♪]
It's a miracle!
What are you doing?
Get back to work!
We're sold out, Dan.
Got to put it all back.
[phone ringing]
[Callie] Hello?
[Luke] Callie.
It's your cultural exchange student.
Luke?
How you doin'?
We're are just getting ready for Sunday.
Sunday?
Tucker's Fall Music Festival.
Yeah, yeah.
How's that going?
Actually, we're sold out.
Is that right?
That's good. I'm glad to hear that.
I guess that means I can only get standing room.
Aren't you and Jillian on your way to Hawaii?
Uh, no, not yet.
Well...
I could probably squeeze in an extra table
if you're serious.
We have plenty of barbecue.
I'll ask her.
Hey, if I don't see you, good luck with your movie.
Thanks. Hey, Callie...
If I send you a postcard from Kauai,
would you save it in your shoebox?
I don't want you to forget me.
No chance of that.
I mean, after all,
you are the guy who discovered Grandpa's recipe.
I could never forget you.
Good. I won't forget you either.
Okay, I'd better go.
Bye, Luke.
Hey, Dan. Have you seen this?
"Don't miss Tucker's Fall Festival,
my new fav' place for barbecue and music.
Hashtag best barbecue--"
Look at this.
Jillian posted about Tucker's on her Instagram and tagged us.
That's why we sold out! All of her followers!
Wow, I've got new respect for that woman.
When she goes viral, she really goes viral.
Yeah, but she doesn't post for free.
Does she expect us to pay her?
No, of course not.
Well then, why would she do it?
I don't know.
I guess she really liked your barbecue.
- You told her. - No.
- You told her to. - Not me.
You're a terrible liar, Dan.
I am an excellent liar.
I'm an agent.
But I'm telling the truth. It wasn't me.
Luke and Jillian. It was a deal. A quid pro quo.
Luke forgets about rewriting "Island Girl"
and in return, Jillian does her social media magic
for Tucker's.
Well, he shouldn't have done that.
He didn't even like the script.
Well...
I guess he's learning to like it.
And he can't make any changes?
Not a single comma.
Why would he do that for us? People he just met?
I don't understand.
Sometimes, a man finds his true home among strangers.
And then,
well, those strangers become family.
And you think Luke felt that way about Lockhart?
Honestly?
I think he felt that way about Callie Jackson.
[♪]
Hey, a second opinion, please.
You look great.
[exhales] I don't know.
Do you still have that emerald-green knit dress?
I do.
You think I could wear it?
I think it would be perfect for the festival.
Hmm.
And who are we trying to impress?
No one.
I just like the way it fits.
And Luke Ellis said that he might come by.
I see.
Now we're getting to the bottom of this.
I guess it doesn't really matter, though,
because he'll bring Jillian.
Doesn't matter what I wear.
Oh, honey.
You've been in uniform for too long.
You get to wear whatever you want to wear.
It's your time to shine.
What if I get barbecue sauce on your dress?
You won't.
Let me go get it.
- Hey, Mom. - Hmm?
One more thing.
I was thinking about singing Grandpa's song
at the festival.
The one he sang every year.
It won't make you sad, will it?
No, honey.
Go make me proud.
I can't promise I won't cry.
I can promise you will.
[♪]
[cheering and applause]
Thank, y'all, so much for being here.
[cheering]
[woman] We love you!
Y'all remember my Grandpa Tucker.
Well, he always told me,
wait until everyone's had so much to eat they can't move.
That's the perfect time to take the stage.
[laughing]
[Callie] I am going to sing a song
that my grandpa wrote for my grandma.
He sang it for her at every Tucker's Fall Festival.
And I would like to sing it in his honor.
[cheering]
[man] Bring it home, girl.

[man] That's it, Callie!
The silent auction will be closing in five minutes,
so go get in your bids.
And the Jason Leeds band will be up momentarily.
Thank you.
[applause]
Thank you.
Oh, my goodness.
Grandpa would have been so happy.
He would have been over the moon.
Y'all are a bunch of crybabies.
Okay, so I haven't finished adding everything up yet,
but I think this is
the best silent auction we've ever had for the VA.
Artemis action figure--
$300.
It's collectible.
That's probably the going rate on eBay right now.
Oh, check this out--
Tucker's Barbecue sauce,
$75.
And a blow dry and a haircut from Kelsy's--
Hey.
Count this up later
and dance with me before the band packs up.
Okay.
Cowboy.
Have fun. I'm gonna go get some air.
You're a star.

Luke?
I'm gonna call you back.
What are you doing here?
I heard there was a festival.
Mm-hmm.
I didn't personally have a ticket
so I just snuck in the back.
Well, you missed the headliners.
Caught the best one.
I saw you sing.
It's a good song.
If I had known that you and Jillian were coming,
I would have arranged for a table.
Jillian's not here.
She and I decided
that it was time to dissolve our relationship,
both personally and professionally.
Creative differences.
- I'm sorry. - Don't be.
I'm not.
[phone ringing]
That's gonna keep happening.
I'm just gonna silence that.
Hollywood doesn't like it very much
when you turn down big opportunities.
I don't think Dan is going to be happy to see me.
But I was hoping you would.
Oh, my gosh.
You know I am.
You know, when I was in LA,
I couldn't for the life of me...
figure out how to do the Cowboy Cha Cha.
Yes, here we go.
Is your weight on your right foot?
It is now.
[laughs]
Oh, hey...
you're not doing "Island Girl"?
Nope.
Is that gonna ruin your career?
Well...
you know what someone very wise once told me?
What's that?
You gotta risk it to get the biscuit.
