She has to do press for the tour, but Teddy's words about the divorce are still ringing in her ears, and she doesn't want to tell anyone what's going on -- so instead she just looks barfy all the time, which is totally going to start at least one pregnancy rumor. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2829.xml) Has Hayden always been so good with pants and jackets, or is she dressing more like Tami now that she's trying to morph into Tami Jr.? Regardless, she's planning a whole acoustic set now as part of her act, and she's crowning it all with really good coats. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2831.xml) She is even doing casual Tami-style updos. Oh Hayden. Her Questionably Coiffed Manager disapproves. He's worried she'll do too much, too fast, and alienate her fans. She thinks he's full of it and trying to hold her back; he just wants her to slow down. I actually think he's right -- if you bought tickets to a Katy Perry concert, and then by the time she got to your city she was doing two hours with a guitar in cargo pants and ZERO hours wearing sparkly bustiers and shooting fire out of her chest, you would be like, "This is not what I paid ridiculous bucks for." Slow and easy is the thing, sister. ## Gunnar ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2837.xml) Gunnar isn't supposed to be parading around naked in his shared house with Scarlett, but he's doing a great job showing as much pubic bone as he can. These two are bantering like there has never been any sexual tension between the two of them EVER. And then Watty White calls to say that Tami wants to sign them to her label, and their two little innocent minds plotz clean out of their bodies. And Gunnar's wang almost plotzes out of his towel. (They're fine. They're apparently too well-adjusted even to look longingly at one another.) ## Tandy ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2842.xml) Tami's sister sees, while going through the metal detectors with Teddy, that Peggy is calling him. She smells a rat. Teddy tells her to buzz off, because pretty soon she and Powers Boothe are going to be written out of this show. ## Lucky Spencer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2843.png) And Lucky, who is living in a seedy motel, calls Marilyn and whines about how he's not seeing any cash from his deal and can't get Wyclef to pay attention to him. Marilyn is much nicer about it than I would have been; she refrains from being like, "NYAH NYAH, TOLD YOU IT WAS A BAD DEAL," but instead she offers to put him up somewhere nicer and tells him to hold tight. ## Jason ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2846.png) "What up, bro! I am totally violating parole right now! And I'm about to tell you that I gave away the gun I swapped your guitar for, but in fact, it's still in my luggage! BANG! Ha, just kidding." ## Tami ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2847.png) Tami gets a chilly call from Teddy, and is all sad talking to her daughters. She's super bummed out considering she just found out he was a money liar and hasn't wanted to look at him for the past couple TV weeks. ## Gulp ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2849.xml) So Tami goes out on stage... and totally spaces out and misses her cue. Her entire posse notices. Tami's manager tries to act like everything is fine -- he's the nice manager, and you know this because his hair does not look like it is part-rabbit fur -- but even Deacon wanders over to be like, "NOT ONCE IN TWENTY YEARS HAVE I EVER SEEN HER DO THIS," just so we know this is some Big Shit Right Here. ## Tami ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2851.xml) But of course, she turns herself back on, because she is Tami freaking Taylor, dammit. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2856.xml) Meanwhile, Hayden puts on her post-show robe and fancy Uggs and tells everyone all about all the changes she wants to make, to get away from the glitter guns and smoke machines. They all clap. Except for Mean Manager (who in this case is Partly Correct Manager also), who isn't best pleased, and who calls a meeting later to tell everyone not to do anything Hayden asks them to do without running it through him first. Bad idea, dude. ## Gunnar ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2857.xml) Gunnar's brother wants a place to crash. There's a lot of brotherly guilt and guilt-tripping going on here, which is really not going to come at a good time. Although is there ever a good time in one's life to have a serially lawbreaking brother? Gunnar agrees to ask Scarlett if they can let him stay... ## Scarlett ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2875.xml) ... and awesomely, this is the face she makes at THAT request, after which she points out that they'd be breaking the law and there is no place for being dumb in her life right now. Later, Gunnar tells her that he didn't know Jason was going to commit armed robbery, and Jason made him the getaway driver, and he was so freaked out by the sight of the gun that he bailed and Jason got arrested and now it's HIS fault that Jason doesn't play the guitar anymore and went to jail and is a sad mixed-up parole-jumping clown. Scarlett -- SIGH -- backs down and offers Jason one night of housing. But at least she was smart enough to be huffy for a while first. ## D and T ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2859.png) These two haven't talked since his tongue was in her mouth. He's worried about her after The Great Missed-Cue Fiasco of 2013, but she insists that although she wants to talk to him about things in general, she can't do it right now. He lets her go. He should have kissed her again. ## Liam ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2853.xml) I love it when an actor's name comes up over a shot of said actor. Anyway, of course Liam pops by, ostensibly because he happened to be in town, but it seems more like he's decided he can tap that and didn't want to give up without a fight. He senses something is up with Tami and she 'fesses up that she just wants to escape from her life, so Liam suggests that leaving with him is the best way to do that. She agrees. Nice Manager seems concerned about this. ## Hayden ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2862.png) Hayden puts on her best see-through blouse -- although she actually looks very cute, but it's a slow-burn restyling of her character, I think -- and yaps about her new changes. Mean Manager registers his objections again and says she shouldn't expect him to sit idly by and not say anything, even though she has been sitting idly by for years wihtout saying anything about whether his hair is real. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2864.xml) And THEN she gives him the Kiss of Death and tells him that what she EXPECTS him to say is, "Yes, ma'am." It's DELICIOUSLY rude and perfectly in character -- Hayden has a good idea, and she's finally getting the respect she wants, so she goes whole hog at it and throws the entire force of her bitchy side behind it to force it to happen. All horses in the vicinity should hang onto their heads, because she might be looking for one to put in her manager's bed. ## Manager and Deacon ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2877.xml) These two have it out -- Deacon isn't impressed that the manager has been talking to the crew behind Hayden's back, which he did while making a point to have Deacon absent ALSO, and accuses the manager of not wanting to let Hayden grow up. The manager is annoyed that Deacon is making Hayden feel dumb about her career and influencing her in a way that's getting her carried away. Both are right. But Hayden has only had sex with one of them, so we all know which one will lose, at least in the short-term. ## Hailey ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2867.xml) Gunnar's ex tracks down a disgruntled Lucky -- who hates Wyclef's changes to his songs -- and tells him that the company wants to buy his catalog. I can't WAIT until they want to buy it so that Gunnar and Scarlett can perform it. But anyway, she's dangling money at Lucky, and he's all about the short-term gain, so he's super tempted. ## Lucky ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2879.xml) Poor sweet jester of tragedy. Marilyn thinks selling his catalog is stupid -- as I said, a short-term band-aid that freezes him out of long-term riches. "It's a numbers game," she says, as her latest cute male project hustles into her house. Lucky snaps that he understands HER numbers game -- a rotating cabal of talented lovers -- but that he has to look out for himself. Marilyn is nice, again, but clearly kind of over what a drama queen he's being, especially when it's because he kept ignoring her advice. So Lucky sells his catalog for $100,000, almost loses his breath with excitement, and is totally going to end up regretting it. ## Daughter ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2870.png) Tami's daughter overhears Teddy on the phone with Peggy, saying he wants to be with her and that she's the only person with whom he ever feels like himself. Poor Tami's Daughter is really taken aback by this. It RUINS the cake-decorating party she was having with her sister. Actually, though, it was sad. She's so adorable and she was so crushed. ## Tami and Liam ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2873.png) "Hey y'aaaaaallll, I'm drunk on shots and stealing your hat as a metaphor for the part of you I REALLY want to wear as a hat." ## Tami and Liam ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2883.xml) And GUESS WHERE IT ALL LED. Tami, Tami, Tami. He's no Deacon, love. But I guess that's exactly the point: no strings. Also, they're making out in a hotel hallway. Not super subtle. ## Tami ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2887.xml) And then Tami goes inside, with her hair looking its most beguiling, and Liam jumps her bones... ## Waaaah ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2891.xml) ... and Tami runs to the bathroom and cries about it. The two of them end up doing it on the bathroom floor... talking, that is. They laugh, they cry, he makes her feel better, they laugh that they should really finish that album, and no bodily fluids are exchanged. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2892.xml) Hayden, however, is ENRAGED when Deacon tells her that her manager is going behind her back. Deacon, what are you doing? Stop that. Stop lighting the fuse. ## Hayden Go Boom ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2893.xml) So Hayden wakes up her crew and SCREAMS at them in the hallway that if they don't do EVERYTHING she says, or run EVERYTHING past her, they will all be hella fired. Her manager can't deal with this, and quits in a rage. Strangely, no one else in the hotel pokes his or her head out the door and takes a cell phone video of all this. Maybe that'll appear next week. Hayden does love an Internet scandale. ## Deacon and Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2899.xml) AGAIN in a fantastic coat and an all-business bun, Hayden is snippy with Deacon when he tells her that her behavior was embarrassing and that he doesn't blame her manager for quitting. Hayden seems annoyed, but mildly chargrined? Because what Deacon says goes, I guess. I'm cool with that if he's the one approving her jacket purchases. ## Deacon and Tami ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2900.xml) Deacon ALSO spied Tami and Liam laughing intimately and hugging goodbye, and deduces that something happened. She denies it, but he feels cast aside, so he huffily stomps off onto Hayden's tour bus and leaves Tami to pout in her mountain of layers. ## Tami and Teddy ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2902.png) These two are getting ready to tell the kids, but first, they have to decide who gets custody of the approximately forty different fresh tomatoes on display in their kitchen. ## Hayden ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2013/02/nIMG_2903.png) Hayden goes home to an empty, antiseptic house, with nothing and nobody to welcome her back. Her assistant offers to hang out and make her some food, but Hayden lets her go, and stares out the window, wondering why the hell her front door and her pool are next to each other. (This seriously still flummoxes me -- we've seen shots that prove it, so... yeah. I don't even know.) ## Aw ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2904.xml) The older daughter knows what's coming, so when The Talk happens, she reaches over and grabs her sister's hand in the sweetest gesture of solidarity. It's actually my favorite moment of the entire episode, in a wordless scene that's part of a montage. Really nice touch. ## Hayden ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2907.xml) And Hayden calls her mother, and invites her to live there once she gets out of rehab. Aw. ## Scarlett, Jason, and Gunnar ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2908.xml) And then Scarlett's spine melts away because Jason makes Gunnar his favorite eggs, and then chips in on guitar while they're practicing for their Tami audition. It's orgasmic, I guess, because when it's done they're all like, "WHEW," and then Scarlett dizzily invites Jason to stay a few more days. This is when we learn Jason secretly still has his gun, and BAD IDEA. But good TV. Also, Scarlett is wearing lace-cuffed pajama shorts. I had a pair of those in 1995\. WHERE did they find them? Time travel? ## Tami ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2910.xml) And then Tami's daughter tells her about Peggy, and Tami is gutted anew, and as the two of them hug Tami again looks like she wants to vomit all over her child's adorableness. So we begin and end on nausea. Which is apt, since the show is FINALLY picking up speed and turning into a roller-coaster. [Fug the Show: Nashville recap, season 1, episode 13TWO IN A ROW where Tami gets her hands -- actually, other body parts -- dirty. And it closed with classic Gunnar and Scarlett musical awesomeness, AND she has a spine now, for real. I am gleeful.![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/nimg_2825.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fug-the-show-nashville-episode-13-02-2013/)
