RECAP:
“Nashville” really does have the best music on television (curated last season by T Bone Burnett) and if you’re not watching, you should. They’re using songs by some top singer-songwriters.
Anyway: The last thing we saw in the Season 1 finale, Deacon snapped out in a drunken rage and fought with Rayna when she admitted he was Maddie’s father, forcing the car off the road. Two weeks later, Rayna is in an induced coma and Deacon’s in jail, with bail set at one million smackers, with him pleading guilty.
- Juliette Barnes is pissed off because it’s award season, she and Rayna are up for the same awards and “now I have to compete with the saint,” she spits. She grabs for the spotlight when she does a tribute to Rayna during her show, including a slideshow. (“Interestingly enough, you were in most of the pictures,” Avery notes acerbically as they come offstage.)
- During her rehearsal, Scarlett approaches Juliette to lend her money for Deacon’s bail. “Let him go, he’s an addict. Addicts will always break your heart,” Juliette says.
- Peggy confirms her pregnancy to Teddy, who says he wants nothing to do with the child. He offers her financial support, “but that’s it.” Later, when she goes to the ultrasound appointment alone, she learns that she miscarried. Will she tell Teddy? Nope. “I heard the heartbeat today,” she tells him.
- Teddy and Maddie have a father-daughter talk about Deacon. “He was always my Uncle Deacon, and now he’s my dad,” she says. “He’s your biological father. I’ll always be your dad,” Teddy assures her.
- Scarlett, ever loving and supportive, goes to the jail to tell her uncle she’s trying to raise his bail. Decon rebuffs her. “I’m no one’s damn father! You quit coming here!” he yells at a tearful Scarlett.
