So, where did you

Under a tree down there.

(SlGHS)

l waited 20 minutes

for her mama to come back,

and when she didn't,

l swooped her up.

l've been taking care

of her ever since.

lt looks like

a baby quail.

l've been calling

her Loretta Lynn.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

What if I took her

for just a little while?

l'll take care of her.

You got a really

big tour that you need

to get ready for.

Okay.

Hey.

l got a good idea.

What?

Let's get out of here.

Let's go.

FEMALE NEWSCASTER:

Nashville's Kelly Canter

was released, once again,

from rehab this morning.

You'II remember,

the country music star

was arrested last year

for drunk and

disorderly conduct

while performing

at a show in Dallas.

She was five months

pregnant at the time.

Hi, guys. Hey. Hey,

how are you doing?

Be careful.

We can't wait to

get on the road again.

We can't wait for

the tour to start.

Kelly's feeling

better than ever.

She's looking

better than ever.

And it's going to be fun.

We can't wait

to get in front of

the fans again, okay?

Thanks, guys. Take care.

FEMALE REPORTER:

James, what about

the divorce rumours?

Hey, Beau.

What are you doing here?

l couldn't just

wait by the phone

for you to call, could l?

I'm here to hear you sing.

And to support Chiles,

of course.

Chiles? What does she

got to do with tonight?

You be nice, Beau.

Find me after the show.

All right.

(SINGING

FRIENDS IN LOW PLACES)

Oh, hi, Beau.

You better be here

to wish me luck.

I'm on the board.

I'm playing

three songs tonight.

Says who?

Says James Canter,

that's who.

Bullshit.

Bull-true.

in consideration

as the new opening act

for Miss Kelly Canter.

James, my new manager,

as a rehearsal.

Not that I need it.
