00:02Hey, y'all. This is my song about loving yourself. Hope you like it.
00:08I don't need no money. I don't need no fame. I don't need nobody calling out my name.
00:16Cassie Fisher, overnight you have become America's new sweetheart.
00:20How does it feel to have an upcoming show at Old Magnolia?
00:23Such an iconic venue. I mean, it's crazy.
00:26I'm just a small-town girl from Georgia. Moved to Nashville two years ago to pursue music.
00:31I have to ask the question everybody's been dying to ask. Are you dating anyone?
00:36All right, yeah, I knew that one was coming.
00:38Um, no. No, I am just focusing on myself and releasing this album.
00:49Just a second.
00:51The band before you is on their last song. You've got five minutes.
00:54Okay?
00:56Okay, okay.
00:57No, no.
00:59Okay.
01:02Ugh, you missed up my lipstick.
01:04I couldn't help it when you look like that.
01:05You know, I'm very glad that we're waiting for marriage, but sometimes it just feels like a really, really long
01:12wait.
01:12Mmm.
01:14You nervous?
01:15Of course.
01:17You only get one Old Magnolia debut.
01:21My girl's incredible.
01:25Owen.
01:26Hmm.
01:27I'm sick of telling everybody that I'm single.
01:30It just makes me feel like what we have isn't real.
01:33Hey.
01:34I'm serious about you.
01:35I know.
01:36I know that.
01:37It just...
01:38I think it's time that we take it to the next level, you know?
01:41I mean, I'm on the precipice of this great new career and I just think that...
01:47What is that?
01:48I'm tired of waiting too.
01:50I want us to be together fully in every way.
01:52Just you and me.
01:54Cassie Fisher.
01:55Will you marry me?
01:56Yes.
01:57Yes.
01:58Oh, God.
01:59I love you.
02:00I love you.
02:02Think about how special this is gonna be.
02:04Just you and me.
02:05It'll be our perfect secret.
02:06Wait.
02:07Wait.
02:08What?
02:08What?
02:09Well, we'll tell people eventually.
02:11Right now, it could hurt the church's reputation.
02:13I mean, my dad is the senior pastor and your music isn't exactly praise and worship.
02:22Hey, we finally get to live together.
02:25I can't wait for you to be my wife.
02:30You are not gonna be late to your own old Magnolia debut.
02:34Let's go.
02:35Hey, good luck.
02:39Here.
02:40I love you.
02:42You got this.
02:43You got this.
02:46You're gonna crush it.
02:49Where's my friend Owen?
02:51He'll be right here watching.
02:54Okay.
02:56I got this.
02:59Do I got this?
03:00As your manager, don't forget to make the announcement.
03:03It's super important.
03:05And as your best friend.
03:07Holy shit!
03:08I'm so proud of you!
03:10Okay.
03:12All right.
03:13Yes.
03:26Hi, guys!
03:28You guys, I have something very special for you tonight.
03:32Sounds good.
03:38I don't need no money.
03:40I don't need no fame.
03:42I don't need nobody calling out my name from the cheap seats.
03:48Don't need no one to need me.
03:50Mmm.
03:51Mmm.
03:52So, baby, don't perceive me.
03:54Mmm.
03:55I don't post no photos on no Instagram.
03:59I don't care if they know that I got my mail.
04:03I keep on guessing.
04:04Don't do it for attention.
04:07Mmm.
04:07Mmm.
04:08So keep me out your mansions.
04:11If I'm happy.
04:13If I'm sad.
04:15If I feel like feeling good, I'm feeling bad.
04:19If I say I'm doing fine to my troll business.
04:24Mmm.
04:25Well, that's for me to know.
04:27And you to learn to live with.
04:29Mmm.
04:32Mmm.
04:34Mmm.
04:37Mmm.
04:38Mmm.
04:39Mmm.
04:41Mmm.
04:41Mmm.
04:42Thank you guys so, so much.
04:44You guys have been giving me so much love on For Me To Know.
04:48So I guess all I'm asking is, y'all ready for more?
04:52Good.
04:53Because this summer, I am dropping my first album.
05:09Let's keep it going now, shall we?
05:12Oh, thank you.
05:14Appreciate it.
05:15Thanks.
05:15Oh my gosh, Cassie.
05:16That was phenomenal.
05:19Oh, you remember Phil from the label?
05:22Great work, Cassie.
05:23The numbers are fantastic.
05:25We have some creative notes, but we are excited to talk.
05:27Just final tweaks, yeah?
05:31Sure.
05:32Great job, kiddo.
05:38Thanks.
05:48You're so sexy.
05:49Thanks for having me.
05:52Oh my god.
05:54You guys, seriously?
05:56What's up, Cassie?
06:01Can you please put something on?
06:09Are you happy now, Your Highness?
06:11Yeah.
06:12You really had to bring him?
06:13Your most annoying hookup buddy?
06:15Oh, I'm honored.
06:16Laura, this is my old Magnolia debut.
06:18My old Magnolia debut?
06:21Come on.
06:22I can't have a little bun?
06:24Be nice, Laura.
06:25She might not get another chance to play here till her TikTok blows up again.
06:30Nox, how's that solo project going, by the way?
06:33It's good, you know, because it's a real expression of art and not my money grab.
06:37Oh, really?
06:38Let's just check it out.
06:40You just hit 5,000 followers.
06:42That's awesome.
06:43Yeah.
06:43Yeah.
06:43I'm sorry that I'm a real artist and not a glorified influencer.
06:47And I'm sorry I'm not a pretentious douchebag who needs to come to my concert for free booze.
06:54Nox, let's go.
06:56She's just gonna whine until she gets her way.
06:59Sorry that one part about this night wasn't about you.
07:09Oh, and by the way, Cassie.
07:12Mm-hmm?
07:13I can't wait for your album.
07:17Asshole.
07:21Stupid.
07:36You sign here?
07:44Congratulations.
07:45You are now married.
07:50Later.
07:51I love you so much.
07:53Great.
07:53Next.
07:54Owen?
07:56Hi.
07:57Hi.
07:57I just have to say, I go to Horizon.
07:59Yes.
08:00And I love your dad's preachings.
08:02Really changed my life.
08:03That is very kind.
08:04Thank you so much.
08:05It's nice to see you.
08:07Mm-hmm.
08:09You ready?
08:11I think so.
08:13Wait.
08:14What?
08:18Nothing.
08:18I'm just, I'm really glad that it's our first time and we're doing it together.
08:23I love you.
08:24Me too.
08:25I love you.
08:27I love you too.
08:32I love you too.
08:46It was my first time.
08:49I love you too.
08:53I love you too.
08:53And it blew my mind.
08:57It blew my mind.
08:58It blew my mind.
08:59It blew my mind.
09:09Hello?
09:10We have a huge problem.
09:12How fast can you get to Music Row?
09:15Oh, shit.
09:36She's great, isn't she?
09:38Yeah.
09:39Shame that didn't work out.
09:42Ladies, thank you so much for coming in.
09:44I know we had a meeting scheduled for next week, but we thought it'd be best to move
09:47it up.
09:47Yeah, of course.
09:48Ain't no thing.
09:51So, Cassie, I'm just going to cut to the chase.
09:55We are still very excited about your album, especially with all the traction after your
09:59announcement.
09:59Oh, great.
10:00There's just one problem.
10:02Okay.
10:03The songwriting is weak.
10:05The music's forgettable.
10:07Well, frankly, the entire album is in desperate need of an overhaul.
10:13Oh, my goodness.
10:14Um, I can get in the studio right away.
10:18Yes, but not on your own.
10:20We're going to bring in a senior writer-producer to work with you.
10:23Now, he's worked with us many times.
10:24We are confident he can turn this project around.
10:27Great.
10:28Okay.
10:29All right, then.
10:30Who is he?
10:35Oh, Jesus.
10:38Hello, Cassie.
10:42He's the producer you want me to work with.
10:44Mm-hmm.
10:44Knox is fantastic at what he does.
10:46Trust me.
10:47Thank you, Phil.
10:51Um, I don't mean to be ungrateful here.
10:54Is there anyone else that I could work with?
11:00Uh, sorry.
11:01No, it's just that he and my sister are involved.
11:04Barely.
11:05So I think that somebody else would be a better fit.
11:08Hmm.
11:12Cassie, now, we believe in your talent.
11:15But let me be crystal clear.
11:17There will be no record without Knox.
11:20Now, if you refuse to work with our chosen producer,
11:23then you're in violation of your contract,
11:25and that'll dissolve your deal,
11:26as well as that $100,000 advance.
11:31Is that what you want?
11:39I'm so excited to make this album with you.
11:42It'll be my pleasure.
11:45Fantastic!
11:45I cannot wait to hear what y'all cook up together.
11:48Mm-hmm.
11:49Oh, and there's just one last thing.
11:51It is important that you just keep your image squeaky clean.
11:55We don't want any PR mishaps ahead of this release,
11:58especially now with the way young girls look up to you.
11:59That won't be a problem at all.
12:07That's... Mm-hmm.
12:09You're welcome.
12:16You know, it's always so great spending time with you.
12:19I cannot believe you.
12:21Uh, your label reached out to me.
12:23They didn't know about our charming dynamic.
12:27Okay, well, you could have said no.
12:28You're right.
12:29But they asked me to step in and save your ass,
12:31and what can I say?
12:33I love helping others.
12:36I have nothing to learn from you.
12:39Sure.
12:43Okay.
12:44Mr. Perfect Songwriter, what do you think is wrong with my project?
12:49Uh, I just don't believe it.
12:52You don't believe it?
12:53No.
12:55It sounds to me like every other, middle-of-the-road,
12:58good girl country pop album that's been released.
13:01I mean, it's got no point of view.
13:03Oh.
13:05Okay.
13:06I'm so glad that you figured that out.
13:08Let's end the session early today, okay?
13:11I'm gonna go out and look for a point of view.
13:16That'd be helpful.
13:18Oh.
13:21He's a condescending dick.
13:23I know.
13:24He's the worst.
13:25He really super sucks.
13:28Mm-hmm.
13:30Aside from the fact that he's kind of fine.
13:32No, he is not.
13:34Mm-mm.
13:34You don't have to like him, but he's hot as fuck.
13:39Cassie, I, like, love you.
13:41Can we take a picture?
13:42Yeah.
13:42Yeah, of course.
13:43These are all mine.
13:44Cassie's not a big drinker.
13:52Yeah, of course, honey.
13:55What was that?
13:56He said no PR problems.
13:58Right.
14:00Working with Knox is gonna be hell.
14:03At what point is it actually worth it?
14:05No, no, no, no, no, no.
14:06You're not giving up your dream because of one East Nashville indie boy.
14:11He's good at what he does.
14:13You know, he's written for Kelsey Ballerini and Casey Musgraves.
14:19Ugh.
14:20That's actually really cool.
14:22Maybe try to get to know him better.
14:26Otherwise, you're gonna have to suck it up, Buttercup.
14:30Well, here's to sucking it up.
14:32To Knox's perfect face.
14:47Hey.
14:48Hey.
14:48Hey, you actually got some really great stuff in here.
14:51I brought you something.
14:52Oh, is that a peace offering?
14:54Just a latte.
14:55Okay, great.
14:56Well, I only drink matcha.
15:02Hey, Knox.
15:04Hi.
15:05Um, I'm gonna give it to you straight.
15:07I don't like you.
15:09I don't like your taste.
15:10I don't like your attitude.
15:12I don't even like that you're sleeping with my sister because even she is better than that.
15:17Is she, though?
15:19What I do like, though, is my music.
15:22And I need publishing to like it.
15:24And for some odd reason, they like you.
15:27So, fine.
15:31Let's just get this over with.
15:33Will you help me make my music better?
15:45Please.
15:46Most people ask for my help with please.
15:50You can do it.
15:53Please.
15:55What was that?
15:58Please.
16:00Well, sure, your highness.
16:02Let's get started.
16:03Oh, my God.
16:05By the way, I drink black coffee.
16:08I was just joking about the matcha.
16:12All right, so here's another example.
16:14Listen.
16:17It will better support your chorus if you go up so you're building energy.
16:23Guess I like that.
16:25Okay, well, here you have truck.
16:27So, what's your truck?
16:30The truck.
16:31Idiot.
16:32No.
16:33Every country song has a truck.
16:34But it's never just a truck.
16:36It's got to be like your ex or, you know, your mom or your dog, something.
16:42So, what's your truck?
16:44Hmm.
16:49Well, I guess my truck is like my safe place.
16:56You know, when everything's pissing me off.
16:59Perfect.
17:01Let's add more anger in it then.
17:04All right, so we got the fixings of a good melody going into the chorus.
17:09It's a...
17:12I mean, I hear harmony there.
17:14What do you think?
17:15I like that.
17:16Can you do it on the third?
17:18Yeah.
17:19That might be nice.
17:20Okay.
17:20Ready?
17:20Two, three, four.
17:29I would have never guessed that you were an XX hot type girl.
17:33Hmm.
17:34I would guess that you were a light mild girl.
17:37That's uncalled for.
17:39You know, tattoos and wear leather jackets and yet you eat a kid's meal.
17:42I just like to enjoy my food.
17:44Mm-hmm.
17:45Thank you very much.
17:47Okay.
17:48So, I think we've actually made quite some good progress, but we need to start a song from scratch.
17:56Okay.
17:58So, what else you got?
18:00I mean, I have my personal stuff, but it's like my journal.
18:05It's like how I process.
18:07Okay.
18:07Like what?
18:09Like things people don't want songs about.
18:13In my experience, those are the songs that people need to hear.
18:18Well, did Laura ever tell you about our dad?
18:23I don't know how close you guys are.
18:25Laura and I actually don't do much talking per se.
18:29We're like friends with benefits, but it's more heavy on the benefits kind of thing.
18:33Ew. Okay.
18:33You know?
18:34We're just kind of like...
18:35Nope.
18:35Don't need to know that.
18:36Right.
18:37Sorry.
18:38What were you saying?
18:39Our dad died three years ago.
18:42He took his life.
18:48Oh my God.
18:50I'm so sorry.
18:52Yeah.
18:54Sucks.
18:58I guess.
19:00Um...
19:01Well, when I was 13, my mom, she got in a car accident and, uh, well, I lost her.
19:16I'm so sorry.
19:18I'm so sorry.
19:18Yeah, it sucks.
19:21I guess I just didn't really know how to process it or, uh, let go of the weight, the heaviness.
19:33I get it.
19:34How have you been handling it?
19:39I miss my dad.
19:43I'm really sad that...
19:46that I didn't see him hurting.
19:49I'm mad at him.
19:52But most of all, I just want to make him proud, you know?
19:55Live a big enough life for the both of us, cause he just got cut short.
20:01And I think that that means experiencing everything, you know?
20:05Like, the good and the bad.
20:09That was really beautiful.
20:14Sorry.
20:15That was a lot.
20:16Hey.
20:20Do not apologize.
20:23I think if you're comfortable with it, we should put this in a song.
20:31Okay.
20:34Okay.
20:36So, what I'm thinking is that if we take this theme of, like, good and bad, right?
20:45I can't light a fire without a burn.
20:52The right away always takes a few wrong turns.
21:08Are you okay?
21:11I love it.
21:14Seems like you finally found your point of view, huh?
21:18I think so.
21:19Although, you know, it would be helpful if we could actually get a full take of the song.
21:23Okay.
21:23So, we're just gonna write it back.
21:24Maybe so.
21:28Laura!
21:29Hey!
21:30When did you two start working together?
21:32Not been a long time.
21:33This was super new.
21:34Her label reached out to me, you know?
21:35Yeah, to rework the album, so.
21:37Her project wasn't very good, and so I had to come in and help her.
21:40Well, I guess I know why you haven't been responding to my texts.
21:43Oh shit, Laura, I'm sorry.
21:45It's just, it's been a really crazy schedule.
21:46Laura, what are you doing here?
21:48You told me I should come hang out with you at the studio sometime, so.
21:53I brought dinner for my big sis.
21:55That's really sweet.
21:57I was feeling bad about what happened the other night, but looks like y'all patched things up on your
22:02own.
22:03Laura, look, we're actually almost done if you want to hang out, we could-
22:06It's fine.
22:07You two seem busy anyways.
22:09Oh, what?
22:10Bye.
22:11Laura.
22:11Oh shit.
22:17Bitch!
22:23May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit
22:28be with you all.
22:29Can I get an amen?
22:31Amen!
22:34John 8 says, then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
22:41I have always loved that.
22:44See, I think we should, we should think about whether we're living in peace.
22:51Cause if we are, with that comes peace, and freedom!
23:044-9 can go for what?
23:06Thank you, baby.
23:07You're welcome.
23:09The band sounded great today.
23:11Yeah.
23:12I didn't know that they were going to give you your solo.
23:15I just gotta start making my own stuff.
23:17I love leading worship, but that's not performing.
23:20You know that.
23:22I just feel like I'm there to help people connect with God.
23:24But sometimes I just, I want people to connect with me.
23:28You know?
23:29And my own music.
23:30No, I get that.
23:31I mean, when people connect to my music, it's the most rewarding feeling in the world.
23:39You know, maybe I could, I could help you write some stuff.
23:42No, I mean...
23:42That could be fun.
23:43No, I, I can do it myself.
23:47Yeah.
23:49I still can't believe the studio put you up in a place like this.
23:52I mean, wow.
23:53Yeah, when are you going to move everything over here?
23:58Well, I'm keeping the apartment.
24:02Come on.
24:02People can't know we live together.
24:05You know.
24:08Owen.
24:11I'm sick of keeping our marriage a secret.
24:14I was looking at you and your family today up there and...
24:18I wanted to be next to you so bad.
24:22I mean, you know that I come from a broken home.
24:24I, I thought that marrying you would mean I'd get a new one.
24:30Why are you so ashamed of me?
24:33Well, I am not ashamed of you.
24:36Okay, well then let's tell everybody we're married.
24:38Baby, you know why we can't do that.
24:40Okay, but I think that you need to give people the benefit of the doubt.
24:42I think that they would understand.
24:44Baby, my family is on a national pedestal.
24:46Okay, we're public examples of what it means to live a godly life.
24:49That, that does not include dating someone like you.
24:54Someone like me?
24:57Someone who spends their time shaking ass on stage singing secular music.
25:01That, that does not honor God.
25:05I go to church just like you.
25:07Look, you knew my baggage when you said yes, did you not?
25:11You know, I don't think you want this.
25:14I don't think you want me.
25:15That, no, that is not what I'm saying.
25:16Okay, well, you knew what this would be.
25:17Owen, I love you, okay?
25:19But I wanted a life beside you.
25:22I didn't think that marrying you meant that I was going to go downtown to sign a piece of paper
25:26so that you could fuck me.
25:30Wow.
25:38Oh!
25:42Ugh!
25:52Hey, it's Caitlin! Just texted me.
25:59Hey y'all, it's Laura.
26:01I'm so sorry I missed you, but you know I got nothing but luck.
26:18Why?
26:20What are you doing here?
26:22What?
26:23What are you doing here?
26:25Uh, my job?
26:26Do you have to have some snide little comment for every answer?
26:31Yes.
26:33I'm sorry, Cass, what's going on?
26:36Nothing.
26:37I'm fine, I just needed to clear my head.
26:40Are you sure?
26:41Yeah.
26:42Okay, well, you don't have to talk about it, but maybe tonight we, um, have a little field
26:49trip.
26:51A field trip?
26:54First stop.
26:59What's up, Franky?
27:02Hey, can I have two beers?
27:04Thank you, guys.
27:11Mmm.
27:17Wow.
27:17Yeah, you know, my friend used to date the guitarist.
27:21Really?
27:21Yeah.
27:23They're so good.
27:26You got a little of that, though, too.
27:30Was that a compliment from Nox Maddox?
27:35Impressive.
27:35Oh, my God.
27:36You're that girl from TikTok, right?
27:38Cassie?
27:38Yeah.
27:39Let's take a picture?
27:40Sure.
27:44All right, thanks, honey.
27:52Sorry, I just, I can't have anyone thinking anything weird being out with my producer.
27:56Come on, Cassie.
27:57You can't be serious.
27:58There's no way that they...
28:03Hey, Frankie.
28:06How much for this hat?
28:08God, I can't believe I'm on Broadway right now.
28:11Come on, live a little.
28:13You know, like you said, there's great musicians all over the city.
28:17Yes, there are.
28:24God, I hate line dancing.
28:27Never teach you how to line dance over in North Carolina.
28:30Nope, hell no.
28:31You're going to have to get me drunk if you want me to do that.
28:34Can I get two more shots, please?
28:36Cassie.
28:37You're doing it.
28:40Ready?
28:46All right, but I'm warning you, I got these left feet.
28:49I'll give you my right.
28:50Let's go.
28:58Come on, tell me what you got now.
29:00I don't know what's going on.
29:01You're doing great.
29:19I got it.
29:20I got it.
29:21I got it.
29:53I got it.
29:57No, you know I'm right.
29:58You know I'm right.
29:59No, no, no.
30:01Because all you want is people to listen to old 70s music on vinyl.
30:05No, that's not true.
30:06Not everyone is an old, grumpy man like you.
30:09If people let Spotify pick their music for them,
30:12they don't even like music that much.
30:13Okay, all right.
30:14I don't even know why I'm talking about music with you
30:16because you don't even think I'm a real musician.
30:19Yes, I do.
30:21Yes, I do.
30:22No, I bet you just can't wait
30:24so you can move on to your artsy-fartsy stuff
30:26that I don't understand.
30:28I never said that.
30:28Yeah, what are you thinking?
30:30No, you're a great musician.
30:33I'm serious.
30:34You're a great songwriter.
30:36You make great music, okay?
30:37And it's not just because of me.
30:39It's because you're fucking good at music.
30:42Right, that's rich.
30:43I don't believe you for a second.
30:45You can't...
30:51You're a great musician.
30:51You're a guy.
30:52I'm so happy.
30:55You're a guy.
31:22Cassie, are you sure you want to do this?
31:25Only if you do.
31:49Oh shit!
31:55Mm-hmm.
31:58Good morning.
31:59Good morning.
32:02Knox, there's something that I need to tell you.
32:06Okay.
32:08I know it was unprofessional.
32:11And just in case you're wondering,
32:13I haven't done this with any other artist
32:15I've ever worked with, it's not-
32:16Because I'm married.
32:22Are you being serious?
32:25Okay.
32:37Um, so, we definitely can tell anyone about this.
32:46Sure.
32:52Ah.
33:00Oh.
33:27I fucking knew it.
33:50Hi.
33:51Why haven't you been answering me?
33:53I'm sorry. I had a really late night.
33:57Great news. The label just called me. They loved the new album and approved it for release.
34:03Wait. What?
34:04Knox turned it in this morning. You don't have to spend another second with that hot loser.
34:09That, uh, that's... that's amazing.
34:13The release party is in two weeks. Proud of you.
34:26I'm so sorry. I'm sorry too.
34:28You're my wife and I'm proud to call you that. I don't care what people think.
34:35What do you say we tell everybody about our marriage at the album release party?
34:40Yeah. We can invite your family.
34:42Yes. Yes.
34:43Okay.
34:43I think that's perfect.
34:45And I want to have Caitlin and Laura over for dinner to tell them.
34:48They're the most important people to me.
34:49Whatever you want.
34:54I love you.
34:55Whatever you want.
35:16Your call has been forwarded to an automated voice messaging system.
35:21Three, two, three, three.
35:37Can't wait to host dinner's with you forever.
35:39We're a pretty good team.
35:41Hmm?
35:42We are.
35:44Mm-hmm.
35:57Nox?
35:58Hey, sis.
36:00I thought I'd bring your friend along for some fun.
36:03You did not tell me we were going to Cassie's house.
36:05Uh, come on in, you guys.
36:08And who is this?
36:10I'm her husband.
36:11What?
36:13You're married?
36:16In the Lord's name we pray.
36:20Amen.
36:23So, how long have y'all been married?
36:27A couple weeks now.
36:28Right, babe?
36:29Yeah.
36:30It's, um, super fresh.
36:33It's marriage.
36:34It's pretty big.
36:35Feels like something maybe you should tell people.
36:40Y'all definitely spend a lot of time behind closed doors to just be friends.
36:46I don't know.
36:47So why all the secrets, Pastor?
36:50Well, you've clearly heard of Horizon, then.
36:55My mom loves your dad's books.
37:00Well, because of my family's, uh, platform, I was worried about tanking their reputation.
37:06But, uh, I'm not anymore.
37:10It kind of seems to me that Cassie would help your family's reputation, right?
37:14Like, help your church membership.
37:16Right.
37:16Your donations.
37:18You'd be surprised.
37:19I mean, it seems like your family's kind of judgmental for people that make their money off of spreading God's
37:23love.
37:24Right?
37:25Hey.
37:26Well, you don't know anything about my family, so maybe chill out with all that.
37:29But I don't think he really meant it.
37:31Like, why are you defending him?
37:33I'm just curious.
37:34Like, what exactly is so bad about Cassie's reputation?
37:37Well, you see, it's not about her.
37:39We're both public figures, in a sense.
37:42And there's a certain responsibility in that.
37:48You wouldn't get it.
37:49Since no one listens to your music.
37:52Um, Knox, can you please help me with dessert?
37:56Let's go.
38:05What are you doing?
38:07You're not answering any of my calls.
38:09Yeah, because there's nothing for us to talk about.
38:11I think that we should tell them.
38:13No.
38:14What happened between us was a mistake.
38:17You have a husband out there.
38:19And you're here with my sister, by the way.
38:22Look, you need to drop it, okay?
38:23What we did was stupid.
38:25All of it was stupid, okay?
38:27I would never have done that sober.
38:29Oh.
38:31That's not what I meant.
38:32Okay.
38:33Cassie.
38:55Let's go.
38:56What?
38:56We're leaving.
38:57Great, can I get the door for you?
38:58Nope, I know where it is.
38:59Uh, okay.
39:00Sorry, guys.
39:03You have a blessed night, Pastor.
39:08You too, brother.
39:13Yay!
39:14Marriage!
39:18Pass the pie, please.
39:21Thanks for meeting me.
39:26I know you think you know Cassie, but you don't.
39:29I know y'all have a complex relationship.
39:31Yeah.
39:33She's had everything.
39:34And I've had to work my ass off.
39:36My parents loved her more than they loved me.
39:40I'm sure that's not true.
39:41They supported her dreams and not mine.
39:43And it got worse when my dad died.
39:47My mom supported her pain, but not mine.
39:50And it left her a spoiled breath.
39:52All right.
39:53I don't think I've heard enough.
39:54Then I'll show you.
39:59Cassie cheated on you with Knox.
40:05What the fuck?
40:07I can't believe she'd do this to me.
40:09She's a taker, Owen.
40:10She'll take anything, regardless of who it hurts.
40:14I'm going to beat the shit out of them.
40:19Fuck, it'd be stupid to divorce her right now.
40:21Why the hell would she do this?
40:22It's who she is.
40:26She doesn't deserve any of it.
40:29Her deal.
40:31Her career.
40:34Her signing bonus.
40:36Yeah.
40:37$100,000.
40:40Don't you think you and I could do so much more
40:42with $100,000?
40:45I could finally record my own album.
40:48I think we can get that money.
40:51And there's one more thing we can do.
40:53Right here.
40:55Right now.
40:55I don't know.
41:25Perfect. How's everything sound?
41:27Sounds great, ma'am. We're letting people in in 30 minutes.
41:30Okay, awesome.
41:32Ready for your sound check, Cassie?
41:36All right.
41:38Yeah, sounds good. Let's turn that up.
41:40Right, Cassie?
41:44Cassie?
41:49Cassie, you in there?
41:51It's me.
41:53Oh, honey.
42:03What's wrong?
42:06You can tell me anything.
42:08Remember Chase from third grade?
42:09I still haven't told anyone about your big, fat crush on him.
42:14So do we have to hide a body?
42:15Because I have gloves in my car.
42:20Tonight was just, it was supposed to be me fulfilling my dreams.
42:24You know, I'm releasing an album, announcing that I'm getting married to a man that loves me.
42:31You know, it was, it was all supposed to be so perfect.
42:36But?
42:37But it's all a lie.
42:40I don't know how it happened, but I slept with Knox, and someone got a photo of us coming out
42:48of the hotel together and is blackmailing me.
42:52And if it gets out, they can ruin my image.
42:55So now I either have to pay them and enjoy my husband and pretend to be this pervert girl everybody
43:04wants me to be.
43:06Or I can come clean.
43:09Which would ruin my career, ruin my marriage.
43:15But at least I would be honest.
43:19So you do admit he's hot.
43:22That's what you got out of all of that.
43:26Are you kidding me?
43:29Can't lie.
43:31That's a lot.
43:33Yeah.
43:35So, as your manager, I say pay them.
43:39I know 100k is your entire advance, but your album Success will get you back that money in no time.
43:46You can keep your life the way that it is.
43:51But, as your best friend, I say go with your gut.
43:56Deep down, you know what you want to do.
43:59You just have to listen to yourself.
44:02And I'll support you either way.
44:07Thank you so much.
44:09I love you.
44:11I love you.
44:12What would I do without you?
44:18Do you know if Knox RSVP'd?
44:25He RSVP'd?
44:26No.
44:27But who cares about him?
44:30You're launching your first album in 20 minutes, so let's fix your pace.
44:36Right.
44:36Okay.
44:38Thank you so much.
44:46All right, ladies and gentlemen, we are so excited to be here tonight for the debut album of Cassie Fisher.
44:55So now, let's give a warm, big Nashville welcome to the one and only Cassie.
45:14Hey everybody, how are y'all doing?
45:18Tonight is a dream come true in so many ways.
45:23So, thank you so much for being here.
45:26How about I show you guys a little sneak peek of what we're working with?
45:30All right.
45:38All right.
45:41You can't light a fire without the burn The right way always takes a few wrong turns
45:52And you can't love the highway
45:54Windows down and going fast
45:57If you ain't ever struck out
46:00On the roadside out of gas
46:02Every two by four you stub your big toe on
46:07It just makes the house you're building twice as strong
46:13And you know it's gonna sting
46:16But you still take that whiskey neat
46:18Cause a drink just ain't a drink
46:21Without the bitter and the sweet
46:25Flowers need the rain to fall
46:28You can't run before you come
46:30If you wanna see the light
46:33You need the darkness
46:35Ain't no joy without the pain
46:38Ain't no life without some change
46:41Love ain't easy
46:42Let's still bend through where this heart is
46:45When you booze take one step forward and two steps back
46:50You know that's just a good kind of fact
46:56They say your bones won't grow unless they break
47:01And if you don't leave you won't know where to stay
47:06Be a fighter, be a lover
47:09Every coin has got two sides
47:12Try one without the other
47:14And it just ain't worth a dime
47:18Flowers need the rain to fall
47:21You can run before you cross
47:24If you wanna see the light
47:26If you wanna see the light
47:27You need the darkness
47:29Ain't no joy without the pain
47:32Ain't no life without some change
47:34Love ain't easy
47:36Let's you bend through where this heart is
