Capítulo 6 de 13 · 3'37"
Jackson brings Ally home to Arizona and shows her the ranch he bought for his brother, only to find it sold and turned into a wind farm. "You sold Dad's ranch," he says; the real grievance is that their father's grave washed away and he wasn't told. Bobby fires back that Jackson was too drunk to remember.
Ally Agrees to Tour, With One Condition
❝ Monólogo · 5 frases Bobby Tells Jackson the Grave Is Gone
On the way to his Arizona show, Jackson tells Ally he grew up on a ranch he later bought and gave to his brother, and that their father is buried there. They drive out to see it, and Jackson finds the land sold off to a wind farm and his father's grave gone. He turns on Bobby; his brother blames Jackson's drinking and absence.
The fight isn't really about a wind farm. Jackson has cast himself as the son who honored the past — he bought the ranch back, he kept the grave — and he needs Bobby to be the one who failed. Bobby answers with a colder version: "His grave isn't there anymore," he says, because Jackson was too drunk to hear it when it happened. From there Bobby reframes everything — the drinking, the idolizing of a father who neglected him, the years of managing Jackson's career while Jackson drifted. Jackson can't argue back; his only reply is "Yeah." The land is just the thing they can finally shout about.

“I'm never getting on that thing with you when you've been drinking.”
It refuses and protects at the same time, so the nagging sounds almost tender.
Informal
“Bought the ranch, though, I grew up on, gave it to my brother.”
The dropped subject makes it sound like a private confession rather than a boast.
Informal
“And you'd be right there with him if he was still alive, and you fucking know it.”
The if-clause paints a life he cannot escape, and the last words refuse any answer.
Informal
“He washed away in a fucking storm.”
A father's grave washed away, told like weather; the flatness is the ruin of a family.
Informal
Fuck if you shed a tear for that piece of shit you idolize for no goddamn fucking reason. All Dad ever did for you was make you his fucking drinking buddy. And you'd be right there with him if he was still alive, and you fucking know it. What did you think, that I was gonna fucking take care of it while I'm fucking cradling your ass all over the goddamn world.
Siguiente · 07with a trackLa escena: Ally's First Recording SessionHe bought the land back and gave it to Bobby to keep it in the family, so selling it feels like Bobby threw away the one thing Jackson tried to preserve. He's also reacting to the news that their father's grave is gone.
Bobby says he did, but Jackson was drunk and doesn't remember. That gap — Bobby managing everything, Jackson checked out — is the heart of their fight.
The scene refuses a clean answer. Bobby kept things running and made a practical call; Jackson paid for the land but stayed away. Each uses the other's failures to avoid his own.
It's a music term: the band plays repeated filler while waiting for the headliner. Bobby is complaining that the players have been stalling on stage for half an hour.
He has no defense. Bobby's accusation — that he'd be drinking with their father right now if he were alive — lands, and Jackson knows it's true.
