You're supposed to be on a plane tonight, Clive.

It was after the CML Awards.
Uncle Tripp, if it's, uh, if it's bad news,
you can just tell us.
Not bad news, it's-it's no news.
You know, usually, when folks go missing, we get hits
pretty quick from the Rangers,
or ICE if they cross the border, but...
Nicky, is there anything you haven't
told us?
Anything that could help us find him?
You already know that,
after I ended the marriage with Clive,
he didn't take it very well.
There, um...
there was another woman he was seeing in California.
She wasn't the first
or the only.
I'm-I'm sorry, Nick.
That's-that's the truth.
Nicky, I know you're worried,
but Clive's got a bit of a bird dog
in him, so dollars to donuts, he's shacked up somewhere.
Exactly what I said.
TRIPP: Okay, so
y'all hear anything,
call me, 24/7. Meanwhile,
we're on it.
But in my experience,
sometimes husbands don't want to be found.
Yeah. Thanks.

Those tears.
Those tears were real because I'm scared. Aren't you?
All I know is right now, the only thing we can control

-You're kidding. -No. You're an inspiration.
Look, this little girl posted a pic wearing your outfit.
"Gigi Roman is as beautiful as any supermodel."
Oh, bless her little heart.
They love you for being you.
Just like I do.
All I did is tell the truth.
That's all I ever wanted to do.
NICKY: You wanted to see me, Daddy?
Close the door.
So they had this whole party to celebrate
the Texas Truth-teller.
That's you, Daddy.
No, it's not.
There's been too many secrets and too many lies
floating around here for too long.
It's time we start clearing them up.
Right.
You know I had an affair a long time ago.
Mm-hmm.
Well, it turns out, the woman,
Rosa... she had a child.
Okay.
Your mama found out about it.
And she locked them in the barn and she burned it down.
She wouldn't do that.
She did.
But the baby survived.
And that baby is Catt Phoenix.
I don't believe it.
I'm sorry, darling, but it's true.
Country's perfect family.
(scoffs)
Lies are the real Roman legacy.
And your mama and I passed them on to you.
And now I'm gonna pass them on to my children.

-Mom? -Hey. (shushes)
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you.
I know you're going through a hard time.
I just want you to know that I'll always
be here for you, okay?
I'll always be here.
(knocking on door)
You wanted to see me, sir?
Yeah, how we doing with that task force?
The Clive Grayson case?
I'm not doing anything.
I thought you wanted to keep it quiet.
I mean, given the celebrity angle
and the fact that your friends are...
My friends deserve to have the full resources
of this office devoted to finding that man.
A little girl is missing her father,
and we owe it to them to get to the truth,
whatever it takes, and whoever it hurts.
-Are we in agreement, Detective? -Yes, sir.
I'll get right on it.
