Its a busy morning in the multi-talented Jaymes-Claybourne house when we kick off For Sake of the Song.
Deacon, naturally, is not pleased.
He contends that a world-wide organization has its challenges and sometimes things go too far, but theyarehelping people.

He also seems confident that everything they do is within the law.
Of course, grandpa has a great voice too.
The whole scene leaves Deacon feeling a little overwhelmed and he leaves the house quickly.
He adds that Deacons a better man because he broke the cycle of alcoholism and meanness.
At the performance, Deacon is asked to play the first song he ever learned.
He starts strumming a little tune his dad taught him, and grandpa sings along quietly in the audience.
Back at home after the show, they sit down with their guitars and share a sweet moment.
On the Alannah front, things are getting really creepy.
Then Brad comes in and massages the poor girls shoulders and whispers something in her ear.
She calls him baby at one point.
Later, she gets roses from Brad with a note: Surprise!
Youre opening for Little Big Town Friday!
She seems way too happy about this considering how it was accomplished.
Jessie says its inevitable, shes his bang out.
Alannah, however, still thinks she can take of herself though.
He also wants to know if Maddies decided whether shes going to Europe with him.
Meanwhile, Twig goes outside to see if Maddies okay.
Theyre getting closer, and even Daphne notices her sister cant stop blushing whenever his name is brought up.
The much-hyped pajama party comes around and Twig seems a little tipsy.
Maddie is dancing with Jonah when she tells him shes decided to go with him to Europe.
Twig then comes running out to tell his friend that the neighbors are there to complain.
Reader, it was not the neighbors.
Twig tries to distract Maddie with some really questionable dancing.
They end up slow dancing andalmostkiss when Maddie remembers Jonah exists and runs off to find him.
And find him she does.
She heads home to sit in bed and sob while Mia slaps Jonah.
Speaking of idiots, some never grow up.
Alannah and Brad have dinner and flirt.
Its so, so gross.
He thinks she likes him, despite her calling him a user and a narcissist.
He then takes her hand, saying he didnt think he stood a chance with her.
She tells him he doesnt, but is all coy smiles and hand holding.
like let it be part of her plan to bring him down.
He then goes to kiss her and she (thank God) moves away.
He kisses her cheek instead, and she heads out on stage to play to an adoring crowd.
The next day shes in the parking lot watching the secretary leave work.
(just have a plan!
like have a plan!)
Anyone else feel like weve got alotto resolve?
At the very least, we should revisit that whole Juliette is pregnant storyline pretty soon, maybe?
