All language subtitles for Pjesma mom srcu (2022) [720p] [WEBRip] [YTS.LT]

Hello.

Ooh, new collection.

Your display looks amazing.

Bonnie!

Congratulations, Bonnie.

Thank you.

Check it out. Okay. She's got these
printed.

Scheduled events for a grand opening
week. Well, if you give me a stack, I'll

pass them out at the bakery.

That'd be amazing. Thank you. Of course.

You've timed this week perfectly to
coincide with the Strawberry Festival. I

know that was no accident.

I want to attract the tourists.

Well, your dad may have topped the music
charts, but this place is going to be a

hit.

I hope so. There's so much history here.

I remember when it was your grandma's
flower shop.

Oh, it's so sweet what you did for your
dad, but you kept the recording space

your grandma made from her storage room.
Well, I put in new sound for things,

but I kept grandma's quilts up, so it
looks just like it did when he recorded

his first album. So will your dad be
here today?

I'm sure at some point.

This week is going to change your life.

I have a feeling about these things, and
you know my feelings are never wrong. I

do know that.

Hey. Hi. You ready to rock and roll?

You know it.

I'll come by for tea later.

Please. Bye, guys. Bye, Alex.

It looks really good in here.

Yes, it does.

I'm proud of us.

I'm proud of us.

Let's go check on the rooftop patio.
Sure.

Oh, gosh.

Right? Yeah.

It is so perfect up here.

It sounds like Dad's in the studio.

Yep. Okay. Well, I'll get things started
downstairs. Will you check?

Yeah.

You're here early.

Well, I mean, uh... I wanted to be your
first customer.

It's a big day, you know?

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Your mother would be very proud of you.

And me, I am also very proud of you. Oh,
good.

You know, I've been messing around here
on a little bit of a song, and I've got

a stuff. Maybe you give me a sec?

I could give you a sec. All right. And
then I have to get back to making tea.

Okay, all right, here. Here it is, all
right? I just need one line.

Your smile warms my cold, cold heart.

You're the promise of better days to
come.

Okay, that's a little clunky. I know.

You chase the chill from a heart that's
gone numb.

Your smile promises better days to come.

It's beautiful.

You're so good, you know? Thank you.

And what was that song you were working
on a couple months back? Did you do

anything on it?

Nah. I haven't really given it any
thought.

Oh, you're so good. I wish you would.

I appreciate the compliment, Dad, but
I've been focusing on the tea shop.

And it's a beautiful tea shop.

Thank you.

And thank you for this.

Your mother loved it here.

She took that picture when I was playing
to her.

Those were good days.

Nothing but dreams.

I wish you could be here.

And... So, what does your old man have
to do to get a cup of tea around here?

What do you feel like? Ha -ha, here we
go.

I better step up. I don't want to be
ahead of that crowd outside.

I've got everything ready.

Here we go.

Welcome to High Street Teeth.

Oh, don't forget to check out the
rooftop patio.

Here's your sweet soda for home brewing.
And I also added a sample of our

lavender -rosemary blend.

If I don't, let me know what you think.

I thought you went on break.

Well, first I thought I'd pick out some
tunes, get this place grooving. Bet you

want to be the rockinest tea shop in the
country.

Least on the lake, sure.

Is that your whole album collection?

You think this is my whole album
collection?

Well, I thought maybe you would have
upgraded to digital, save a little bit

space. No, classics like these aren't...
Okay, is this album a time

machine because suddenly I'm back in
college?

You remember this group?

How weren't they selling those out of
the back of their van?

You do remember.

The band was okay, but the lead singer
was really good.

Yeah, he didn't really need the other
guys.

I wonder what happened to them.

Yeah, they probably went to college and
got nice, safe, regular, well -paying

jobs. People like to eat.

Yeah, but not following your dreams can
leave a sour taste in your mouth.

Oh, I put in extra cookies for tonight.

Oh, I'll go get them.

I need a little sweet after all that
sour.

Before meeting you, I had been
brokenhearted.

But one look, one dance, it took you
less than an hour.

I suddenly knew you were the sweet after
the sour.

How many pages have you used today?

You know me, when I think of...

Words, I have to write them down. Mm
-hmm. I can't help it. I know.

That is why I got you this.

It's small enough to fit inside your
apron pocket, but large enough to hold

big, beautiful ideas.

I love it.

Now you don't have to write on your
hands or your apron.

That was one time.

It's perfect.

Thank you.

Are you going to get those cookies?

What? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going.

He was so good.

And what a face.

I mean, admit it. He was hot.

Okay, yeah, he was hot. But he still is.

Hey, Dex. So, you have a plan?

Yeah, I'm working on it. No more
extensions.

The label won't reschedule again.

I need a demo next week.

Have you been writing?

Trying. Trying.

I've gone out on a limb to even get you
this chance.

I believe in you, writer, but you've got
to tell me, what's the problem?

I've got a lot of melodies.

It's just the words.

They won't flow.

I've got to find my inspiration.

I'm on my way.

I'm on my way.

Poetry reading is upstairs, first door,
on your right.

Was that another RSVP for the media
tasting?

Yeah. That's all, except Branch Rogers,
but his readership is three times all

the others combined.

Relax. I know you poured your heart and
soul and bank account into this place,

but look around.

It's a hit.

It's incredible, but we've just opened.
Without the right publicity, these

crowds won't keep coming. We need to get
a good review to ensure continued

success. Then we will make sure that
Branch Rogers gets here.

Okay? Who's ever been able to stop us
when we put our heads together?

Absolutely no one.

Oh, your number one fan's here.

Eh, Dad's a big car.

To him you are. I'll be upstairs.

Hey, I hear you got yourself a real nice
crowd up there.

Can you believe it?

Yeah.

I can't wait to see you up on that
stage, you know, just letting your light

shine. Yeah, well, the stage isn't the
only place I shine. Let me make you some

tea.

I know that look right there. That look
right there, that's inspiration.

I'll make you that tea.

It's good, you know, from what I saw.

I love you, Dad, but we've already had
this conversation once today.

Did you play a different record?

That's the only record I got. I think
you know that by now.

Have you seen Alice? Is she going to
come by? She said she was coming.

Say my name and I appear.

Would you care to join us?

I would love to.

Great. But I'm actually here to see you,
honey. Uh -huh.

Whatever you say. Welcome, everyone, to
High Street Tea.

Welcome to our first ever poetry
reading. To kick things off, we have our

own Bonnie Highstreet.

See, the stage is yours.

Seats on the side are yours. I saved you
guys a table.

All right. Thank you.

Shall we?

I'm sorry.

You look familiar.

Have we met?

I don't think so.

Hey, I'm looking for... I'm sorry.
They're literally calling my name. They

help you at the front.

Okay.

Thank you all so much for coming. This
is one of my favorite poems.

It's called Home From My Heart.

On another plane, miles above nowhere,

To another place I didn't want to be.

Then you sat down and everything
shifted.

Your smile was a gift.

On

another

plane, miles above nowhere.

To another place I didn't want to be.

Then you sat down and everything
shifted.

Your smile was a gift.

Was the pride the truth you helped me
see?

Luxury isn't found in gold.

It's in the smiles, the hands we hold.

A first -class seat is on a front porch
swing.

A wake -up call is when the bluebirds
sing.

And the priceless part, your love in the
dark, is a home for my heart.

How about another round of applause for
Bonnie?

So we're going to head back inside, and
we're going to brew the tea specialties

for the evening. So if you want to
mingle, we will let you know when it's

Thank you.

It's you, guy who literally stole the
show.

Excuse me.

Wow.

I've waited my whole life to meet you. I
don't know what to do now. I'm just...

That was amazing.

Yeah, yeah, she's pretty great, isn't
she?

I feel like I should go apologize for
interrupting.

Yeah, well, interrupting my daughter's
poetry reading probably isn't the best

way to make a first impression.

That was your daughter?

Yeah. Yeah, that explains a lot.

I'll go apologize.

Hi. Excuse me. I'm sorry. Just take your
time.

Bunny, bunny, bunny. Are you... Do you
know who that is?

I'm the guy who came to apologize for
interrupting you. You were really

terrific.

Thanks. I love the opening.

I love the transition.

And then wake -up call is what the
bluebird thing.

It's good.

Wow. You were really listening.

Yeah, yeah. Did you write that?

Have you ever had your poetry put to
music?

I write poetry, not lyrics.

I haven't had a chance to work on it
yet, but bear with me.

Luxury, not made of golden treasures.

I'm going to stop you right there.

No, please, please don't.

That was my poetry.

Mm -hmm.

Sounds like a song to me.

I wanted to show you how beautiful your
poetry could be set to music. Thank you.

I feel like I came to apologize and I
just dug in deeper.

Buy some tea.

Our specials tonight are sweet soother,
chamomile peppermint blend, or up all

night, a black tea.

If I get the sweet soother, do you think
that'll soothe the situation?

Try it.

Tea's all around. How about that, huh?

Here you are.

On the house?

Why? Why?

No way.

No way.

Yes, way.

Okay, that is amazing.

Hey.

Hey.

Who's that tall, handsome man?

I don't know. They're pretty good
singing boys, though.

They make a good -looking couple, don't
you think?

Huh.

You keep telling her she needs more
music in her life.

I do.

That's crazy.

We just weren't that good?

Well, I guess that's why we broke up.

No, you had a great voice.

You still have a great voice.

Thanks. Have you done a solo album?

Oh, it's funny you should ask that.

You know, I made my living just me and
my guitar.

Traveling around, playing different
small clubs, colleges, even the

street corner. I'd stop and listen.

We always got the best crowds with a
Hank High Street cover.

Go on.

Well, I feel like I have a shot.

I've got this agent. He really believes
in me.

And he even got me a meeting with a
label so I might be able to turn my shot

into a deal.

Well, I thought so. Congratulations.

Yeah.

What's the problem?

Isn't that every musician's dream?

Well, you know, they always say you got
to stay ready, right?

I thought I was ready.

I had this demo album, 10 songs that I
thought were really great songs.

How many made the cut?

Two.

He told me that two was all that was
good enough.

So he got me a little more time.

I got to write eight more that are that
quality.

That's what brings me here.

Two. Poetry night? No, to find my idol,
the legend, Hank Highstreet.

Here he is.

Yeah, here he is. Wow.

I didn't mean to be such a distraction
upstairs, man. Well, I think the horse

left the barn on that one, right?

I should just come out with it. Yeah,
you should.

I'm struggling, man.

I mean, I got lots of melodies, but I've
just, I got no words.

I thought if I come out here, I always
wanted to see where you recorded.

I thought I might be able to find some
inspiration.

And I know it's a lot to ask, but do you
think maybe you could help me?

Help me with my lyrics?

I'd help you if I could.

It's just, you know, a Hank Highstreet
song.

It always makes you feel something.

And it's not just your voice. It's not
just the music. It's those words.

You can't give me just some tips?

If you look at my records, you'll see
that there's a co -writer on every song.

My wife.

Barbara, she was the lyricist. I'd give
her a lump of clay, and she'd twist it

and turn it into something beautiful.

You know what? That was actually pretty
good, Dad.

I come up with a line every now and
again, but you need more than that for a

song. That talent that you complimented
Bonnie on earlier, she didn't get it

from me. She got it from her mom.

What do you think? You can help me?

I told you, I don't write lyrics.

Well, I want to write my own. I just
need somebody to bounce ideas off.

Come in with the occasional line.

Help me take an idea and turn it into,
like, what you performed tonight.

But with music.

Don't look at me.

What do you think, Pa?

I think you're usually the one taking in
the strays, Dad.

Oh, yeah? I see you're the one who
leaves out the milk.

You guys talking about cats or
musicians?

Both. Both.

My wife loved taking on new talents. She
used to call them her interns.

But without her or Bonnie, I'm afraid
that I don't have the skill set that you

need help with right now.

Today is just the first day of a week
-long grand opening.

Yeah.

extravaganza. Yeah, we're running
promotions all week to help bring in

customers. I've got event planning,
bookkeeping, doc events to plan.

I really can't afford a distraction this
week.

When is your deadline?

A week.

I really do love a good writing camp.

It's not a good time.

I would love for her to help you, but
between the grand opening and the media

page party.

Yeah, her dance card is full.

I've seen her to -do list.

Sorry, I have to take this.

What's that about?

That could be Branch.

Branch? Who's that?

Branch Rogers, the man who can determine
the future success of our shop with his

tourist blog.

You know I can help you with that,
right?

That's sweet, but it's important to us
to make it on our own.

Without Branch, we don't do that.

Well, was it him? Did he call?

He sent me a text.

Oh, no? It's bad?

Hey, Bonnie, I hope things are going
well with your opening. Don't think I

make it, but I hope it's a success.
Best.

Well, it's not that bad. We just need to
implement our backup plan.

What's your backup plan?

You know, I could get you Branch Rogers.

Run that by me again?

If I can get Branch Rogers to come to
your table...

Do you think you can find time to help
me with my songs?

And how are you going to get me, Branch
Rogers?

Well, I'll just start by giving him a
call, maybe a text message.

And if that doesn't work, I'll just go
over to his house, remind him I'm the

who introduced him to his wife.

Wait, what?

Yeah, I've known Branch for years.

Ever since he reviewed my band.

A good review?

It was really well written.

We can postpone launching the online
sales app so that I can cover here and

can go with him. We need Branch, okay? I
don't want to be a one -hit wonder.

Okay, you've got yourself a deal.

You need a place to stay?

I was just thinking of getting a hotel
or something. Well, I have a guest house

if you're interested.

Classic death.

I have a good feeling about this, and
you know... Your feelings are never

And that'll be tomorrow's problem.

Cause the day you told me you love me.

Stolen from the palm of your bedtime.

Hey. Are you early?

Yeah. I told you we need to do early
morning songwriting sessions to work

my tea shop hours.

I just didn't think you meant over
breakfast.

You should go and hang out at the tea
shop and then, you know, when she gets a

little bit of a lull or whatever, you
can work with her. Wouldn't you say?

I have other things to do.

Okay. I just thought it might be easier
for you to talk.

I won't get in the way.

No, it's just distracting with people
coming and going. You wouldn't really

a proper... Well, you could use a studio
as an office, right?

Your studio?

That'd be so cool. Yeah, I mean, then if
you get anything written, then, you

know, you can use the studio as a
studio.

What do you say, Ma? Well, that would be
easier.

We can give it a try, and if it doesn't
work out, we can go back to our

scheduled session. Right, because, you
know, inspiration always munches the

clock.

I mean, you know that, right? Because
you spend all your time writing on

on your hands, on your apron.

On your apron?

That was one time.

No, it wasn't. It wasn't once.

Is that your French toast?

It was my French toast.

Don't look so hanged up.

I made you some.

There you are. This French toast is so
good.

Yeah, you know what? You just put it
right out of your mind because I'm not

going back in here to make you enough
help.

Oh, you got a little on your face.

A little, uh, other side.

Yeah.

Here.

Thank you. Here.

Why don't you read her what you got?

Yeah.

I just... I mean, it's just scraps.

It's just scribbles.

Read her what you have.

Read it to her.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm sick and tired of drive -thru
biscuits, yellow lines, and speeding

Lying in bed knowing I need a brand new
start.

You got anything to follow, then?

Uh... Thick and tired of drive -through
biscuits, yellow lines and speeding

tickets.

I know that it's time for a brand new
start.

Lying awake in the dark of night, just
as soon as it's morning light, I'm

home to find my heart.

You see that?

Look at that.

Am I right?

That's good.

It's just my first thought. I do think
you have something there.

That's good. I love that little inverse
flip thing you did where you switched

the line.

Setting up contrast or trying to.

Yeah, yeah. That's what I need to do. I
need to learn to do that.

How do you do that?

I honestly don't know. I just do it.

We're doing it right now. We are?

I'm going to get going.

Oh, come on. You got to give the guy a
little more time than that.

I know. I just don't want to lose track
of time.

Well, are you having fun? Is that a
problem?

I wouldn't go that far.

I would.

I would go that far.

If I get a little more inspiration, I
might have a second verse.

See, you know what's good for
inspiration?

A little wander by the lake. That's good
for inspiration.

Okay, fine.

It's your lucky day.

So beautiful.

It reminds me of when I was a kid.

You grew up near a lake?

No, my grandparents had a farm, and
there was a lake there.

And a tree, and a tire swing, and swing
out over the water. It felt like I could

fly.

Sounds idyllic.

Well, now, you couldn't go swimming to
shore sometimes.

But that's just when the weather started
to get really hot.

That lake felt so good.

Can't compare to your childhood, though.

Hank told me about how when you helped
him break his writer's block to write

Honeysuckle Harmony.

He loved telling that story, but I was
four years old.

He was surrounded by crumpled up pieces
of paper.

I just asked him if he wanted to go for
a walk. With your imaginary friend,

Harmony. Well, she loved honeysuckle,
and we loved to sing.

Sometimes it's as simple as that.

Well, I'm a little embarrassed to admit
it, but I don't know if it's ever been

that simple for me. Even when I'm not as
blocked as I am now, I need inspiration

to kick in.

Better kick in soon.

I've never taught this before, but...

Next time an idea comes to me, I'll try
to think about how I'm thinking.

Yeah, if you can catch what you're
doing, maybe you can explain it to me.

Yeah, give you a few tips at least.

That is inspiring.

Yeah, it is.

Charming house.

Really looks like a home, doesn't it?

Exactly.

This is for sale time. Why don't you put
it in an office?

I'm on the market this week, but I've
got to get my tea shop on Sologram

I spend any more money.

Well, I can tell it's a really special
place for you.

Growing up, I always imagined living
there, raising a family.

You could say it's my dream house.

I'm going to go to work.

Okay, I'll work on getting inspiration
to punch a clock.

You know, like your dad's saying, I was
trying a little inverse flip thing with

it. It didn't work.

Not this time.

Keep trying.

Yeah, I'll keep trying.

Did Ryder have an update about Branch
Rogers?

No, not yet.

But it's all going to work out.

Branch Rogers will come here, and he
will love this place.

It's everything he lived for.

Locally owned, organically grown.

I thought you were the one telling me
not to worry.

Yeah, yeah.

Uh, but that was before.

Before what?

Before I drove by the lake and saw that
the old Campbell Place is... Ah, so you

know that my dream house is for sale.

Oh, you know already?

Well, are you going to make an offer?

Maybe after opening week.

We can get this place on solid footing
and the place is still available after

the launch party. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I
don't want our business to be the reason

that you miss it on your dream house.

No, don't even say that. I'm happy to
invest in that.

We've always wanted to go into business
together.

Uh, sure. When you were going to write
music and I was going to sing backup

vocals for Hank.

Then we realized I couldn't carry a tune
and a teapot.

Oh, well, dreams change.

Best friends don't. Okay, still, I know
how much this house means to you.

Well, I'll tell you what it doesn't
mean. It doesn't mean more to me than my

best friend.

Oh.

Uh, but I couldn't help but notice you
didn't argue with me about my singing

ability. Best friends also tell the
truth.

Oh, I see.

Hi. So, like, if I had spinach in my
teeth or a button undone?

Yeah, you know I would tell you that.

And I would still love you. Well,
thanks. Love you, too.

I used to sit and play right here.
Actually, this is where I wrote Seeds of

Love. Get it? My mother's flower shop,
Seeds of Love.

And then there was a storage room in the
back that she turned into a studio, and

that's where I recorded it.

Dad, I'm sure Ryder doesn't need to hear
these stories. You've been telling him

in interviews since before I was born.

I'm sorry I didn't mean to bore you with
it. For me?

Yeah, you couldn't.

I'm here for all of this.

Well, Bonnie, she refurbished the studio
for her old man, and, uh... I hope she

gets into her uses sometime, too. Oh, so
you are a songwriter, then?

No. I run a tea shop, and I dabble in
poetry.

Well, she used to.

Look, I won't say any more, all right? I
was just giving Ryder the two -bit tour

of the town here.

Okay.

You know, for someone that's supposed to
be writing an album, you're sure doing

a lot of hanging out.

No, that's what I'm hanging out with
Hank.

I get it. He's a pretty special guy.

So special.

I'm going to go check on some bread next
door.

Check on the bread or the baker?

She's got jokes, too. She's funny.

Why don't you show them the studio?
It'll be a quick tour. It's small.

Do you want to see the studio?

Yeah.

This is it.

That's the tour.

Man.

Something old, something new.

I love it.

Thank you.

This room carries a lot of family
history.

The shop needed a complete remodel,
but... This room is sacred.

You can really feel it.

Any word from Branch?

Oh, not yet, no. But I left a message. I
told him how urgent it is. I told him

how great your tea is.

He'll get back to me.

He will.

So this is really where Hank wrote High
Street Boogie, right here?

Yeah. You should have seen Mom trying to
teach him the line dance for it.

Oh, wow, you really don't have to. No,
okay.

Sorry, I'm not a good dancer.

That's just...

Did you have high school dances?

Uh, not exactly.

We had dances in my cafeteria after
football games.

Man, nothing could get the kids on the
floor like a Hank High Street song.

I'm sure that's true.

Well, I'm gonna get out of here.

Yeah, you go back to work.

Is it okay for me to write here?

I feel like just being around Hank's
stuff will bring something out of me.

Yeah, of course.

Well, maybe I should work on the patio
where he wrote Seeds of Love.

Whatever you want.

Hank's desk.

Maybe I should write at Hank's desk.

Okay, I'm going now.

Hank's desk.

Hank's chair.

I need a new tea blend.

What do you think?

Oh, yeah, I like that. Right? Mm -hmm.

That sounds nice.

That sounds familiar.

It ain't the same I've been thinking of
While I'm waiting for the light

to come It

ain't the same I've been thinking of

Ain't the one that I learned to lose The

thing that I love too hard

This ain't a song, it's a cry of love.

Singing to the one I need.

This ain't the words, it's a call to
truth.

Speaking to the heart of you.

Just running around in circles.

I thought I'd play a hang song.

Well, sounds good when you play it.

Thank you.

Well, I could use a distraction.

Can I borrow your apron?

Uh, what for?

Well, if you'll trust me with your
kitchen.

Why not?

Let's see what you got.

Prepare to be amazed.

So?

I tried to peek inside, but he banished
us from our own kitchen.

Well, whatever he's making, it smells
divine. You know, tea.

And can bake.

Is there anything you can't do?

Apparently, he can't write a song.

Or at least not right now.

Is it bad of me that I hope his writer's
block never ends?

One way or another, he will be leaving.

Eventually.

So, don't get too attached.

Okay, okay.

Is that a reminder for me or for you?

Wait until you taste this.

Since it's a tea shop, I thought I would
make my grandma eat a tea cake. Is that

fresh whipped cream?

Oh, yeah.

I even froze the bowls just like my
grandma taught me.

Oh, yum.

Did it inspire any songwriting?

No. It did distract me from how lousy my
songwriting has been, so, you know.

Hey, but that's progress.

I know that state of mind all too well,
and it's not conducive to the creative

process. No, no, no, no, it is not.

Take them to Alice.

Oh, that's a great idea.

No, these are for... Don't worry. I will
get some more from the kitchen.

Cheers. Cheers.

I know this is about my 17th horse male,
and you're probably at the dentist or

something, but I'm just a good tea shop
owner. I really want to come through for

her and her family, so that means
getting through to you.

Call me back.

Cheers. I brought you some tea.

Didn't mean to sneak up on you. Do you
have secret ninja skills? I had no idea

you were there.

How's it going?

You know how your dad says a lump of
clay?

I don't even know if I'm there yet.

It's close.

May I see?

I really don't have anything. I just
keep making lists. I keep thinking about

high school dances.

Lists are a good place to start.

I know, but they're not songs.

What were you writing?

What? I saw you writing something in
your notebook when you left the studio.

What were you writing?

Uh, same as you, actually.

High school dances.

Really? I don't know why that makes me
feel a bit better, but it does.

May I see it?

What, you don't believe me?

No, I... I do believe you. I just want
to see how much more than a lift you

have. Do you have, like... Do you have
half a thong?

Have you written a whole thong on it?

A pendant.

I've never been to a high school dance.

Really? We were on the road.

You went on the road with Hank?

I thought you spent your whole childhood
here.

Until Hank retired, I didn't spend three
consecutive months in this place.

That was tough.

I mean, it definitely wasn't normal.

Mom and Dad made wherever we were feel
like home.

And in the summer, Emmy got to come on
tour with us. That's amazing.

Mom always tried to book us into resorts
with pools and a water slide.

So it wasn't too tough.

There were definitely some special
moments.

Bill, I know, uh...

I know what a grind day -to -day life on
the road can be, so I know those

summers were the exceptions.

Are you writing that down?

Can I come see?

Day -to -day life is a grind. Live for
the exceptions. Waking from a dream, you

hit the snooze too many times.

Already late, not even out the door.

There's got to be something more.

Huh?

Sounds good.

Can I write it down?

Can I see it?

You know there's got to be more.

You join the conference call, still in
your car.

This daily grind just isn't enough. Life
can't be about this stuff.

Live for the exception.

That's amazing.

You're amazing.

Thank you. I know that that just
happened, but were you aware of what you

were thinking?

Can you give me some tips?

Nothing except don't get so caught up in
writing that you forget there's other

work to be done.

Just because it's fun doesn't mean it's
not work.

Then maybe the tip for you is just
because it's work doesn't mean it can't

fun. There you go.

Doing that little inverse flip thing
again.

Saw more people looking at your dream
house.

Have you thought about making an offer?

Not yet.

Maybe after the grand opening?

I have too much on my plate this week.

I thought maybe you could ask Hank.

He would help, for sure.

I just want to do things on my own, not
run into my legendary dad all the time.

I already feel bad enough having him
perform for the launch party.

He volunteered.

Yeah, but... I accepted.

I'm not crazy enough to turn down a
performance by Hank Highstreet. Speaking

busy weeks, you and Ryder seem friendly.

Friendly is the word for it. But you
admitted he was hot.

Would you keep your voice down?

Better yet, change the subject.

I like this subject.

Dad, Alice, and Ryder are waiting. Are
we ready?

Oh, all except... Honey from your
beehive.

My bees send their love.

It's perfect.

See? Nothing to worry about. This is a
solid business plan.

Yeah. If we can impress them here right
now, I think that we can knock the socks

off the critics and influencers
tomorrow.

Do we get to come in now, or do we have
to wait from far away?

Oh, that's only when you're cooking,
Dad.

Wow, this looks great.

Dig in, please.

Thank you.

That was amazing.

I mean, really, pleasure for all of us.

Well, thanks for being our dress
rehearsal for the media tasting.

Oh, any word from Branch?

I called his office.

Apparently he's on a tour of county
fairs. So he's probably just in an area

sketchy cell reception.

Yeah, I have a good feeling about it.

Oh, my gosh.

I sound like Alice.

Could be worse. Seems like good people.

Actually, this whole place seems
amazing.

It is.

It's home.

Hey, can I do something? Can I help? Oh,
yeah, that would be great, actually.

Emmy has a date.

A date?

Why is that the first I'm hearing of
that?

Because it's the first date.

Came through.

So are you feeling what I'm feeling?

I sure am.

Oh, you mean Bonnie and Ryder.

Maybe there's something more than
songwriting happening between them.

Maybe we need to give that a little
help.

I have an idea for tomorrow.

Oh, do you?

So do you have any advice on treats?

Oh, the bars have won several blue
ribbons. They'll even be a part of our

display at the annual Strawberry
Festival this week.

I'll have to try one of those.

And what's your favorite tea?

Electric Shock or Easy Listening?

Definitely Electric Shock.

I have just the thing.

This makes up all nights in Lazy.

Makes a double.

You are a brave man.

All right.

So, I found Emmy's favorite tea.

What's yours?

Whatever I'm drinking at the time.

No, no, that's not acceptable.

You must have a better answer.

Nope.

What about... What about rosemary mint?

No?

Honey hibiscus?

Creativity.

That's clever.

Are you?

Thank you. You're welcome. Thank you
very much.

There's so many great combinations. You
must have a favorite.

I really don't have one.

Oh, I don't believe you. It's
impossible.

Don't you have an album to write?

Oh, yeah.

Honey, I'm so glad you're here.

Everything okay?

Yeah. I have the best news for your
grand opening lunch party.

You need a cake, of course. Since I
specialize in bread, I called my friend.

my God, what he can do with cake.

Anyway, it's more than a specialty.

Anyway. I got you an appointment.

That's amazing. Thank you.

The only catch is you have to go now.

Now? Yeah.

I'm working.

Look, it's wedding season. We got you in
on a last -minute cancellation.

You're doing me a favor fitting you in.

Yeah, we can watch the shop. Yeah.

Yeah. Come.

I guess so.

Why don't you bring this guy with you?

Yeah, this guy. Yeah, in case you have
trouble making up your mind.

Well, look, his cakes are so delicious.
I mean, I would have a hard time

choosing just one.

I think I can make up my mind. Oh, you
can't even choose your favorite tea.

Dear Emmy, hold my bar. You got it.

Let's go eat some cake.

There you go.

Put down Cupid's bow, both of you.

We're just trying to help you have the
earth.

grand opening be a success, that's all.
I'm sure that's part of it. But if

you're going to add matchmaking to your
retirement schedule, can you please find

me someone local?

She's on to us.

Yeah.

So, Alice and your dad seem to be sowing
some seeds of romance.

You picked up on it, too? That's what I
did, yeah.

Get two people together, give a look,
give a feeling.

No, no, there's no feeling.

Really? I thought there was a feeling.

You did?

Well, yeah.

I don't want to be out of line, but I
feel like Hank and Alice would be a

couple. Hank and Alice? Yeah. Yeah,
totally.

Who did you think I met?

Oh, here's the bakery.

It's very sweet.

You were right.

I cannot make up my mind. Which cake do
you like best?

I don't know.

Tell me your favorite tea. Maybe I'll
tell you my favorite cake.

You're supposed to be helping.

Oh, is this not helpful?

My masterpiece.

I've been saving this for just the right
amount.

All right.

Looks amazing.

Very pretty.

Let's see.

Oh, wow.

It's so buttery.

This one takes the cake.

You're very clever. That was a really
funny joke. Hey, ask first.

Then you might say no. You don't know
that.

Okay, can I finish your cake? No. You
see?

You see, if you're not going to finish
it... I might finish it. Your manners

horrible. My manners aren't horrible. My
manners are great.

I'm also available for wedding.

Oh, we're not dating.

Not yet.

It's not funny. It is really funny.

Wait till I tell my mother about this.

Wait till I tell her about your manners.

Actually, Flip, please don't do that.

Hey, I wanted to ask you about our
launch party.

It's the last night of our grand opening
week, and I'm hoping to end with a bang

to help launch us on to success.

Like a graduation?

Yeah, in a way.

If a graduation had Hank Highstreet
performing.

Well, never been to a graduation like
that.

Our finger sandwiches are better, too.

I was wondering if you might want to
open for Hank.

Yeah, I'd be honored. I'd be honored.

And consider yourself booked?

Wow. Opening for Hank. That's probably
the biggest gig I ever played.

So far.

So are you kids going to join us and
watch this movie?

I hope I'll be too busy in here.

Nonsense. I can handle it.

You should go. It's Casablanca.

Uh, exactly why I shouldn't. I've seen
that movie like a hundred times.

Well, then you already know.

Classics are... Classics. Mm -hmm.

So are you going to join us?

I'll come get you if I need to.

I don't want to interfere with your
date.

Oh, we're not... This isn't a date. I
thought it was a date.

It's okay if you want to date. No, I
just... Look, I'm happy that it would be

date. It's just I didn't know that it...
Yeah, okay, well, we're on a date. We'd

love you to join us.

Okay. But it's not a date.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And for you.

I seem to know a lot of people.

Such a great community.

Becoming a part of it really quickly.

Feels really good.

Is this Sleepy Soother or whatever?

No, I wanted you to be able to stay
awake for the whole movie. Oh, yeah.

like that, huh?

Try it. You might like this one, too.
Yeah?

What is it?

Do you really want to know?

Particularly, but go ahead and tell me.

Summer Roman.

Yeah? I can go for a little bit of that.

You know, um,

you can go on a date, too. You know
that.

Okay.

I promise I won't distract you. I just
wanted to come see how you're doing, see

if I can give you some help.

Oh, this is the last of the treats. If
you could take these upstairs, that'd be

awesome. You got it, it seems like.

It's so amazing to me how the lyrics
just flow out of you.

Sorry.

Poetry.

Well, for all you know, this could be my
grocery list.

Except it's not your grocery list, is
it?

No.

We get to do another writing session.

I really think we could make some
beautiful music together.

Shouldn't you have a mustache to twirl
if you're going to say lines that

It's not a line.

I'm not interested in writing songs.

I know that's what your head says, but
your heart doesn't agree.

Yeah, you write that down in your little
book. That's a good line.

Hey, Bonnie.

I'm coming.

Everyone's here but Branch.

He should be here.

But you told him it was today.

Yeah, I left him voicemails. I'll call
him again, but... We need to get

Welcome.

Thank you all

so

much for coming.

I hope to see you soon.

Bye. Thanks, guys.

Is everyone okay?

Was he bad?

Bonnie,

I'm sorry that happened. I left him so
many messages. I don't know.

I'll make it up to you, I promise.

It's not your fault.

I know, but you've been such a help to
me. I had this one thing to do. And I

know the power of a good review, you
know, especially one from a guy like

You did everything that you could.

I know that.

I believe that.

Still serving?

I've never needed a cup of tea so badly
in my life.

Branch, you came through, man. You came
through.

Yeah.

My buddy.

See you.

Hi.

Come on over.

We've still got left for tea. Are you in
the mood for easy listening or electric

shock?

My only problem is I can't decide which
tea I like best.

I understand that problem.

Have you tried those strawberry bars?

Like biting into summer.

Are there any more?

I know just where they're coming.

Again, I'm so sorry for missing out on
the official party.

I'm sorry you got a flat tire.

I'm grateful you still came.

I had to come see what had a rider so
excited.

And now I get it.

He was excited about tea?

Did he ever tell you I traveled with the
band for a while?

He always used to use herbal tea to calm
down after a show.

I think that's why he's got the stamina
to keep his career going.

I believe it. But honestly, I think it's
more than the tea.

Look, he does really love those
strawberry bars.

Rightly so, but no.

It's the town.

This is exactly the type of place he's
always wanted to live.

Really?

He loved going from one small college
town to another.

He always said, a town like this is
where he wants to raise a family.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Sorry, it took me a minute to find them.
If I didn't know better, I'd think you

hid them on me.

Well, it's the only way I keep them in
stock.

So what has you surprised, huh?

You telling my secrets?

I'm just glad you called and got me up
here.

Yeah. But I have to head back.

Thank you for a delightful time.

You have got something special here.

You'll like my review.

It's been a pleasure.

Pleasure.

All right. You made me look so good.

We did it. We did it. We really did it.
I'm seriously in shock.

Thanks to you.

Yeah, I'm just so glad he showed up. He
showed up, and he loved the place. It's

the best outcome possible. I know I
should be exhausted, but I am so

It's like the energy after a show or
something.

Yes, exactly.

If you're okay, I might go.

Oh, we're running low on mint. I'm on
it.

You want to come?

What, to the store?

Not exactly.

You'd never even know this was back
here.

This was my Granny Hazel's garden.

What she didn't teach me doesn't need to
be taught.

That's amazing.

Constantly inspires me.

So, what first?

I've never done this before.

It shows.

I thought you put your summers on the
farm.

Dairy farm?

How close I ever got to gardening was
when my granddad got some goats. It was

job to keep them away from Grammy
Edith's marigolds.

Go ahead.

Enter.

Remove the plastic.

Oh.

Right.

Like that?

Perfect.

Now you get your hands dirty.

What?

Right. How's that? My garden again?

Yeah.

Now the mint. Mint will take over the
whole garden if you let it.

Mint.

Is that your favorite tea?

What's your favorite song?

Well, do you mean mine or someone else's
or a live performance or recording?

I should have figured that out.

Each one is special in its own way.

They become even more special when you
share what you've created with an

audience.

Exactly.

So Branch told me you used to drink
herbal tea while touring.

I knew he was telling my secret.

What else did he tell you?

Just about drinking tea after shows.

That's true.

I guess everybody has different ways of
dealing with stresses on the road.

I wrote?

You've never seen a journal with more
teenage angst.

Well, it served you well. You're, uh...
You have an amazing talent.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, I can't not ask you again.

How come you're not a songwriter?

Your dad recognizes your talent. I do,
too.

Thank you.

Really. It's not what I do anymore.

How can you say that? You're always
scribbling in your notebook, and you're

good at that inverse flip thing you do.
First, it's not called that.

Then what's it called?

Sometimes irony.

Sometimes contrast. It's called
different things at different times.

Then I like my name better.

So what's second?

What? You said first. What's second?

Second, I'm not the only one who does
it. Most writers do it.

I guess I'm still working on it.

No, you do it. You just don't always
recognize it.

Thanks, I think.

But how can you stand to not pursue
songwriting?

It's just different.

It's personal.

I don't understand how somebody can feel
good at something and not want to share

it. I do share it.

With tea.

With this garden.

Okay, I guess that's true.

You guess?

You don't know?

What I know is I need a shower.

Okay.

And how about the lake?

The air says summer, but the water still
says early spring.

Oh, I think it feels good. It feels
great.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

You're evil.

That's an evil laugh.

Yeah. That was a little bit bigger than
I anticipated.

Okay,

okay, okay. It's true.

Well, I'm all cleaned up. You?

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.

You want to go ride a car?

I just got an idea.

Let's do it.

Okay. How do we start this time?

Well, tell me about your process.

Where do you get ideas?

What do you do when you're stuck?

I think the problem is I don't do
anything.

I'm sure it feels that way, but you're
clearly not the type to give up.

I've seen the little notebook. What's
the big one for?

The little one is where I...

Write down ideas and lines as they come
to me.

The big one is where I put them all
together into actual poems.

I tend to just wad mine up and I throw
them away.

Yeah. I don't do that.

It's because yours are amazing.

Not all of them.

And they definitely don't start that
way.

I think you're just stopping yourself.

Giving up before you really know whether
there's anything there.

Remember my poem, Home From My Heart?

Oh, yeah, I can't forget it.

I mean, I don't want to.

Thank you.

See these sticky note tabs?

Each one represents a different draft of
the poem.

It started with this.

It's like gardening.

These are all your feeds and your
seedlings, and then you transplant them

you let them grow.

Wow, that was...

Really good.

Which one of us gets to write that down?

Well, you're the one with the notebook.

That's what you think.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, you said Dad was your idol.

Why?

Oh, so many reasons.

But I think what I always appreciated
the most was his authenticity over the

years. When you hear a Hank Highstreet
song, you really feel like you're

a real Hank Highstreet.

You are.

It's what I want to do. I want to write
songs that are authentically me.

Well, when did you feel most
authentically yourself?

You know, it was when I didn't have to
be me.

I mean, there's the writer Jameson who
loves music. But then there's the writer

Jameson, the performer.

The manufactured image.

That sounds stupid.

No, I'm intrigued.

Go on.

Okay.

When I'm with you, I don't have to be.

To me, the stage shows.

To me, that the world knows.

I'm free.

You see, it just gets stupid.

No, it's not.

Keep going.

When I'm with you.

When I'm with you, I don't have to be
me.

The choices I've made to make someone
else is great.

I'm free to be all the people I could
have been.

If I'd only known then.

All the different years, different
tears.

All the different tears, different
nights.

All the different fears, different
fears, different fears, different fears,

different tears.

After all these years, when I'm with
you, I'm free to be the man I wanted to

all along.

What do you think?

You think that's a seed?

I think you might have a tree.

A whole tree?

What's wrong?

Nothing. Poetry can be intense.

Those are lyrics.

Those are lyrics.

Wow, that looks beautiful.

Great job.

Thank you.

Strawberry Fest is my favorite time of
year.

How's the writing coming?

Well, I had a cup of your up all night
tea and it is aptly named.

Oh, no.

Oh, yeah.

I tried to put time to good use.

Did you finish everything?

Um, no, not exactly.

Half?

I need you to understand, this is really
difficult for me.

I think you're putting too much pressure
on yourself.

Why don't you take a break from all that
writing and come with me to Strawberry

Fest tonight?

All righty.

Catch us up at 10.

See you then.

I'll see you tonight.

Life changes and so do the rules.

Everybody knew that we had something to
lose.

Life changes with the good in the past.

No exit, no exit, no exit. Thank you.

Life changes and so do the rules. I
should enter my grandma's tea cakes next

year. They're definitely blue ribbon
quality.

Are you planning on coming back?

To be honest with you, I'm kind of
planning on never leaving.

Aren't you trying to launch a music
career that'll take you all over the

I'm trying to launch a music career, but
I don't really want the rock star

lifestyle. You know, I want a family. I
want a home. I think you can have it

all. I'd certainly like to try. That's
why I admire so much about your dad. You

know, he played music with family. It
was what his life was about.

Yeah, but the career takes over.

Does it have to, though? Don't you feel
like that's a choice people make?

Hey. Hi, guys.

Hey. Have you actually seen the winning
strawberry?

Have I seen the what? No, I mean, you're
walking along and you think to

yourself, wow, those are some large
berries. And then you see this one and

wow, that is an abnormally large
produce.

I'm down for that. Right?

You guys, go ahead.

Great idea.

You two go ahead. Come on.

See you soon. Yeah. Have fun.

Are you sure you're okay with me dating
Hank? Because you know I would never...

You don't have to explain.

I'm thrilled.

Well, in that case, how's it going with
Ryder? I think he's still having trouble

with his music.

Don't be coy with me.

From what I can see, Ryder is helpful
and kind, creative and attractive.

I mean, the guy's a kid.

And you know it.

I do know it.

He's going to finish his album and then
leave. Are you sure about that?

Do you have a feeling about it?

My only feeling is that you two are good
for each other.

So no predictions about the future?

Honey, we can't predict the future, but
we can create it.

So how's the songwriting going?

Oh, it's not great.

Not yet.

All right. What about Bonnie?

Bonnie? Yeah.

Bonnie's great.

How great?

She's really great.

Really great.

Really great.

See, that's the problem with songwriting
right there.

Have you ever done any journaling?

Not really, no.

Bonnie's mother got me into it.

I mean, it just helps you sort of
connect with your feelings, right?

I mean, she used to take my ramblings in
the journal and she'd turn it into some

of our best songs.

Well, I might have the thing blocked
there that I do with the lyrics, but

give it a try.

No, I mean, it's possible.

I hoped you'd be a little more
reassuring on that.

Well, I mean, no plan is foolproof. I
just don't know that you can write

anything until you really understand
what you're feeling, right?

I mean, you can't let it flow until you
open up.

Life is kind of like that, too, isn't
it? I mean, you know what I mean?

Yeah, I think I do.

And are you ready to see this incredible
strawberry? Because it's right there.

Oh.

And then your dad and I took some
pictures with the abnormally large

was abnormally large.

The farmer was a teenage girl.

Oh, so you enjoyed the festival.

I did, yeah.

But you're still worried.

I'm still stuck.

Right.

Your dad told me I should try
journaling.

It really helped him and my mom. How is
it that you write so beautifully?

Let the words flow. Pour your heart out.

Maybe you just haven't found your truth.

Speaking of truth.

No.

I've got this song that I can't get out
of my head.

Something you wrote?

I wanted to tell you earlier. I used
your lyrics.

My poetry?

Well, the lyrics now.

I set your words to music.

You did what?

I know.

I know, but if you'll just listen. I
think I've made my feelings on that

clear. You did, but... But what?

I don't want to pressure you. It's just,
your poetry, it's the only thing that's

inspired me in months.

Nothing seems to work except your words.
I feel like if I could just play you

that song, maybe I could finally move on
to something new.

Okay.

Wait, did you just say okay?

Yes.

I'll listen to the song.

Let's see if it clears your block.

Thank you.

Wait, do you mean like right now?

Do you have time to waste?

Let's go.

Okay.

The trick is to rotate the marshmallow.

Okay. So as to get a nice even heat to
all sides.

Mine keeps turning.

Turning black.

Yeah, that's not what you're trying to
do.

All right, well, yours is nice and
toasty. Mine is perfect.

You ready for the best part?

Yeah, I get to eat it now, right?

No, no, no.

Allow me.

First graham cracker.

Look at that.

You are... And then you just kind of
squish it out.

Now I get to eat it, right? I present to
you this morning.

Mm.

Mm.

Oh, wow.

That's so good.

I know.

So, show me what you got.

I don't know if I can follow this.

Try.

All right, it's not done, though.

Okay. This will be, uh... Okay.

I'm used to hearing work in progress.

Oh, good.

On another plane, miles above and
nowhere, to another

place I don't want to be.

When you sat down, everything shifted.

Your smile was a gift, but the prize was
the truth.

If you helped me see, luxury is not made
of

gold and...

Pleasures me.

Learns from your love.

First class tribute on a front porch
swing.

Wake up cold when the bluebirds sing in
the priceless park.

Your love in the dark is a home for my
heart.

The home for my heart.

Wow.

That was powerful.

You like that? You think that's okay?

I mean, I might be biased, but that was
amazing.

It all came from your words. I just
wanted to do them justice.

You did.

That was a gift.

You know, there was a time that
songwriting was my dream.

You ever hear of Jason Allen?

Yeah.

Yeah, that name rings a bell. I think he
broke out right around the time my band

broke up.

The guy I'm thinking of, his album had
this, there was one great song on it.

rest of the album you could have put in
your garden to help the plants grow.

That's the one.

What was that, Tim?

Lonely Days Never End. Yeah, Lonely Days
Never End. That's a great song, Vaughn.

That's a great song.

Lonely days never end till I hold you in
my arms.

Till I see your eyes again.

So what about that guy?

We were engaged.

So it broke your heart?

Worth.

He stole my song.

He sent a demo to his record label with
his name on it.

And I never knew until I heard it.

I had a...

Pre -release party.

So you wrote Lonely Days Never End? I
really did.

Well, mystery solved. That explains why
you only had one good tune.

So did you sue him?

What's his word against mine?

He said I gave it to him.

But I only played it for him.

I hope you dumped him at least.

Oh, yeah.

It was over.

That's devastating.

I never wanted to share my songs with
anyone.

Ever again.

Guess it was my way of getting back at
him.

Kind of punishes you more than it
punishes him, though, doesn't it?

It protects me.

Taking shelter in a storm.

I get that.

But after the storm's over, aren't you
just hiding?

Are you still talking about songwriting?

Or whatever applies.

You're not going to put that in your
notebook? I thought that was a bridge.

Hey.

Hi. No, not at all. We were just
chatting.

Oh, well, please carry on.

Well, I'm actually going to go do a
little songwriting. I don't know if it's

fire or the company, but I feel
inspired.

Well, be productive.

Yes, sir.

Good night.

There was your evening.

Mm -hmm.

It was good.

Got a lot off my chest.

It was like that, wasn't it?

You know what?

Why don't you two take over? I've got an
early morning.

Oh, well, please don't let us rush you
out. No, I'll rush you out. Come here.

I love you. Have a good night.

Good night. See you soon.

Yeah.

Wait, wait, wait.

What were you two doing before Hank and
Alice showed up?

We were talking.

Just talking?

Yes. Why?

Third time you've rearranged those
donuts.

We were just talking.

Okay, fine. Just talking.

What's he doing this morning?

I'm not sure.

He rushed off to write.

I'm sure he'll turn up soon.

Enjoy.

Hi, gals.

Hi. Oh, the place looks amazing.

Thank you.

So, how's Ryder? Does he need another
dose of things?

I guess not. I haven't seen him.

Yeah. I mean, it's the longest he's gone
without teeth since I've known him.

But you know how it can go. You lose
track of everything else.

Yeah. Oh, I've got a good feeling. And
you know my feelings are never wrong.

Can I have an electric shock?

Yes. That's right.

Hey, Dad.

Hey, kid. What brings you out here?

Thought Ryder could use some help.

Miss the songwriting?

No. You miss him?

No.

So it's him and the songwriting, huh?

Is he here?

He is.

I brought up some food and some tea.

Seems he's perhaps worked through some
of his blocks.

Maybe it was the journaling.

That's great.

No sale on that one. It doesn't sound
great.

The scenery finishes.

The scenery leaves.

Wasn't there some talk of him sticking
around?

Musician's tour, Dad.

Yeah.

Maybe somebody else needs to do a little
journaling.

I already know what I'm feeling. All
right, so you don't want to talk to your

old man about it. That's fine. Your
mother was the word, Smith.

Even with her help.

I wasn't much with the words.

But when I did sing the lyrics, I sang
them with feelings.

The feelings that I had for you and your
mother.

So I dried her eyes, and I brushed her
hair.

And I made her smile, and I said, don't
you dare.

But there are some things in a young
woman's heart that she just won't share.

I wish I could be her everything.

Never was I so sorry to be just a man.

So that was for me.

About me?

I came across you in your...

upset about something, then you wouldn't
tell me.

Then your mother said, welcome to the
world, the 13 -year -old girl, where

daddy's kisses just don't heal anymore.

Crazy.

I always thought that was a breakup
song.

No, I mean, it was a breakup song. Your
mother wrote it as a breakup song.

I always sang it about you and me.

Thank you.

Look, you know, too, even though I'm
always available to talk about anything.

Maybe another time. Okay, sure.

Hey,

really, though, right? I'm here to talk
any time, you know, midnight on a

Tuesday. Not a Wednesday?

You know, I remember interviewers asking
you what inspired that song. You never

said your teenage daughter.

You're welcome.

Love you, Dad.

I love you, kid.

There you are.

You disappeared. I figured I should
check on you.

I hope your explaining's as good as your
singing.

Sorry, I kind of disappeared on you
there.

I didn't want to break up the creative
process. I feel like I had a drought for

so long, now I've got a flood.

I didn't want to leave until I had it
all done.

I'll give you some credit. That's a
decent explanation.

You know, I owe you some gratitude.
These songs, this album.

That good?

Well, I don't know if they're hits, but
I can tell you it's the best thing I've

ever written, so.

That's awesome.

I'm happy for you. Hey, listen, I know
it's late, but do you think I could go

lay down some tracks?

Yeah, absolutely.

I'd love to hear what you've been
working on.

Or not.

No, I'd love to play it for you. It's
just, you know, it's still... I get it.

Yeah?

No worries.

I'll see you later.

See you later.

You're going to tell me what's up?

I'm fine.

I've known you too long.

I'm mostly fine.

My dream household.

Oh, no.

Bon Bon, I know how much that house
means to you.

Yeah, well, I stand by my decision, so I
have to believe something better is

coming along.

You know, I swear that Alice and her
feelings are contagious because I have a

feeling that there is.

That's weird.

What?

I just got a voicemail from Ryder's
agent.

Well, what's it say?

First new message.

Hey, Ryder sent me Home For My Heart.
It's an amazing song.

I just got Ryder a new deal based on
that song, so I need to get you under

contract as soon as possible.

Do you have representation?

He'd like to record it, and frankly,
your words and his voice, I'm already

seeing the tour selling out.

I can't believe he did this.

Sorry.

Hey.

Now I understand why you didn't want to
play me your album.

Because then I would know that you stole
my song.

What? Your agent just called and left me
a message. You sent him my song.

I told him you wrote that song.

If he told you otherwise... Yeah, but it
wasn't yours to send.

And now you're planning a tour, so...

So much for sticking around.

That was all lies, wasn't it? Will you
slow down?

You won't say anything to get what you
want. Give me a sec. Give me a sec. Just

go.

Hey. Hey. You seen the playlist with the
DJ?

Bonnie, what's wrong?

I just need the playlist.

Oh, the DJ already has it.

Right. What's wrong?

Nothing. I don't want to talk about it.
Let's just get ready for the party.

Okay.

Yeah. Hey.

Hey, have you talked to Ryder?

Yeah, sit down.

Ryder isn't who I thought he is.

He stole my lyric.

Did he?

Well, he sent them without telling me.

Well, he did put your name on about,
didn't he?

So?

Well, is that really stealing? I don't
know.

Well, if it's not stealing, then what is
it?

Well, some folks might call it a push in
the right direction.

He used my song to get a deal.

Well, his agent used your song to get a
deal, right? He got a little bit

overzealous, and as soon as Ryder found
out, he put the end to that.

Really?

Really.

But he still lied to me.

What did he lie to you about?

About wanting to stick around, have a
home here. His agent's already planning

tour. That's what agents do, right? They
plan things.

But what does a writer say?

But you only know the decisions that
your mother and I made.

You know, they were hit and miss.

Because people are hit and miss.

So you'll take, uh...

All your love and your family and your
music.

And you'll mix it around and see where
it lands.

You probably should have given him the
benefit of the doubt.

Probably.

You know what?

I need to talk to Ryder.

Okay. Can you keep an eye on Pete? Yeah,
yeah.

What are you going to do?

Oh, I know what you can do.

What?

Here is where I'll take my final steps
upon this earth.

Down a dusty trail that holds the memory
of my birth.

Hey. Hey.

Did you find him?

I told him to go and he's gone.

Well, he's performing tonight. He'll be
back.

I hope so.

What needs to be done? Oh, no,
everything's under control here.

It's Beth.

I mean, I couldn't have done this
without you.

I wouldn't have.

Right back at you.

Cheers. Hi, ladies.

Congratulations. Thank you.

Wow. We've got a nice crowd here.

Yeah, we did.

The giant cake here.

It's got to be some kind of distant
relative of that strawberry, I would

You going to have anybody jump out of
it? Is that the plan?

I really hope not.

Have you seen... No.

I have found true love.

You have?

Oh, he means the cake, dear. Yeah, I
mean, my birthday's next month, and I

I want this in perpetuity forever.

I'll remember that.

But don't tell me what you wanted as a
birthday gift, because... I already have

something to find. Oh.

I've been working on that song you love.

I'm delighted to hear that.

I'm sure that he would not show up
without a good reason.

I gave him one.

It's like the opening act showed up
after all.

Came back.

It's about time for you to go on.

I need to talk to you about something
first.

I owe you an apology.

I didn't have all the facts.

I want you to know that I was telling
you the truth the whole time.

I know.

I mean about everything.

Especially how much I love this place,
wanting to stay here and make a home.

So I did something crazy.

Bought a house.

What?

Ryder, this is the house next door.

This is my dream house.

It's full.

Yeah?

Yeah, I did the closing today.

That's too much.

Yeah.

Yeah, it might be too much.

But I just know how much I love this
place.

And I know that that's your dream house.

And I can't stand the thought of you not
having it.

It's yours now.

Ryder.

There's more.

I want to tell you the whole truth, the
things I should have said before.

That's actually a really good line.

I'll write it down later.

Yeah, write it down later.

Thanks to you, not only did I make my
deadline, I've written the best music I

ever wrote in my whole life.

Because to borrow a line from you, I
found a home for my heart.

You're so scared you left.

I thought that I was protecting myself,
but... I've just been hiding.

Falling in love with you, Bonnie?

I'm falling in love with you, too.

Like we're together.

No, you said you had a feeling.

And you know my feelings are never
wrong.

I hate to break out this lovely moment,
but are you planning on playing?

Yeah, of course I am.

What do you think? Can I play your song?

It's our song, and it would be an honor.

Hunter Jamison, everybody!

don't want to be
