How many stalkers can one girl have?
Im not super surprised.
I want to see him smile just once.

Oh, and Juliettes also skipping her Oxycodone pills, considering her past drug abuse.
I have to give it to her: The girl sure is determined.
(Not really.)
She gets mad and tells Avery AGAIN that hes only there because he feels obligated.
Once he explains its just a conversation with God, Juliette gets down to it.
Shes lost and asks for help.
The tears make it convincing.

It kind of works.
When Juliette and Avery get home later, they make their apologies.
Juliette admits she hates being helpless and doesnt want to need him, but she does and always has.
Shes terrified of feeling like a burden, but he assures her he wants to be there for her.
Avery feels that with everything theyve been through, hes just not ready to get intimate.
Ithinkthats his reason, anyway.
but he does tell her she has no idea how much he loves her.
He just needs some time.
Not that much time, I guess …
Roughly three minutes have passed when hes back sweeping Juliette off the couch and carrying her to the bedroom.
Now, lets check in with another couple in a precarious place.
the realtor hits on him.
The realtors dropping lines like: Look at this bed, come check out how comfortable it is.
Im kind of loving all the sexual innuendos this episode.
Anyway, the dude is thirsty.
NEXT: Whats the harm in a little stalking?
Alright, lets get to the good stuff: Who is stalking Rayna this week?
Bucky and Rayna are watching some videos on that new website they cant get enough of YouTube.
Theyre just loving an artsy-looking video by a super-acclaimed director.
(Yes, Im giving them a couple name.)
Hes so overwhelmed that Im pretty sure he momentarily stops breathing.
Rayna thinks hes terrified of her, while we all thinksheshould be terrified ofhim.
Or they could just ask Zach Welles for a loan, because guess whos in town?
Yup, its everyones favorite offbeat billionaire entrepreneur.
He stops by the Bluebird to see Scunnars show and join Rayna and Deacon for dinner.
Zachs totally taken with Deacon he feels like he knows him from his songs, you see.
Creepy, creepy, creepy.
Anyway, the mayor of Nashville joins them for dinner because Zach knows everyone.
Hes also a big fan ofThe Exesand sees an opportunity he wants to explore.
Rayna agrees its all a little weird, but likes the idea of having money for her business.
The next day over ribs, Zach pitches Rayna.
(But what if they dont love music videos?)
She tells him its an interesting offer and that he has barbecue sauce on his face.
No, really, thats her response.
Later at home, Rayna receives an envelope full of rose petals and a long multi-page letter.
It begins:
Dear Rayna,
After so many years of waiting, I am here.
I have finally gained the strength to reach out to you.
You cannot begin to imagine my happiness!
I HAVE MADE IT!
There are no words to express it.
I love you and I have loved you since the day I was born.
It goes on in a similar vein, explaining that he (she?)
knows he sounds crazy, but people are crazy when theyre in love.
So, its understandable Rayna jumps out of her skin when her phone rings a moment later.
Not to worry, its just Zach.
(I think thats a relief?)
So maybe blackmails his game?
Instead, she should be losing sleep over the fate of the label.
So, Rayna starts to really consider Zachs offer and gets her lawyer to review the contract.
Its all too good to be true.
Call me cynical, but this isnt going to end well.
Its all very confusing for him.
Wills all I need space and Kevins all I had a feeling you werent ready for a relationship.
Its pretty, but like I said, Will issoconfused.
Something tells me hes going to regret letting Kevin go for the second time.
Man, I was really rooting for those two.
The stalking saga continues next Thursday.
