Deacon needs a new liver, so Scarlett calls her mother in, maybe fills a bathtub full of ice and preps a rusty knife just for her own sense of vengeance.

In the final episode of 2020, Andrew and Johnny prepare for the onslaught of Nashville shenanigans and watch an episode of the TV show that is mostly set in… NEW YORK CITY?!?

Musical/Music Documentary Month gets off to a singing start, as Johnny picks a doc about the Nashville institution that features the likes of Faith Hill, Charles (Chip) Esten, Taylor Swift, Garth Brooks and Kacey Musgraves. Andrew gets a hard indoctrination into modern country performance, and Johnny fondly recalls his travels to the landmark in the pre-pandemic world.
