"Jason Burner has really become a music sensation as he still remains in the top ten of artists." A woman said as Davis, Miley, and Jesse watched on a computer. "With Miley Stewart, the former Hannah Montana, as his mentor, there's no mystery why this young man keeps blowing up the charts."

"Oh yeah!" Davis said. "Still in the top ten. I am really ra-ra-rocking it." He even did a little dance when he said that.

"Yeah. That's great, Davis. Nice to see you're being modest about it." Miley said.

"Of course, we shouldn't forget some of the old artists that were greats as well." The woman said. "Miley Stewart included as well as her own father Robby Ray Stewart, who was one of the best country singers around."

"Aw! Their talking about Daddy!" Miley said.

"Yeah. Your old man was a great guy." Jesse said.

"I guess, but that was back in his old days. He was a country singer. He couldn't have been that great. I don't even know what the big deal is about country music." Davis said.

"Now don't go talking about me like I'm dead." All three of them looked towards the door and were really surprised as they saw Robby himself standing right there. Miley practically screamed in joy from seeing her Daddy. She even pushed Jesse and Davis out of the way.

"Daddy!" Miley shouted as she hugged her father and he spun her around.

"Easy, Mile. I'm not as young as I use to be." Robby said. "I mean, I still look good and young, but looks can be deceiving."

"How's it going, Robby?" Jesse said as he walked over to him and held out his hand. However, Robby gave one of those father looks and made Jesse a little nervous. "I mean Mr. Stewart."

"Pretty darn good." Robby said as he shook Jesse's hand, but Jesse could feel Robby's strong grip and was starting to hurt his hand.

"That's a really firm grip, sir." Jesse said as he tried to hide the pain.

"Daddy!" Miley called and got Robby to let go and Jesse was relieved that was done. "I'm married to him now. Don't you think you could lighten up on him?"

"Nope." Robby said. "I'm his father-in-law and all fathers-in-law are always hard on their sons-in-law."

"So what does that make me?" Davis said as he walked over to him.

"Daddy, you remember Davsi, don't you?" Miley asked.

"How could I forget?" Robby said. "You opened your home to this little guy. I see him on the news as you're mentoring him, teaching him everything I taught you about living a double life. What's more is that he insulted the kind of music I did right when I walked in." He glared right at Davis for that one and Davis felt like he was in trouble as he gave a nervous smile.

"So….what brings you here?" Miley said as she tried to save both her boys.

"What? An old man can't come over to see his only daughter?" Robby said as he hugged his daughter with one arm.

"Of course. It's always great to see you." Miley said.

"And since I'm here, I thought I share some old knowledge with Davis about how to be a better singer." Robby said.

"Nah. That's okay." Davis said. "I'm already in the top ten and things have been going well when I play as Jason. I don't need any help. Besides, I don't really see how you can help."

"Is that so?" Robby said as he felt a little insulted. Miley saw some tension between them and knew she needed to break it.

"Okay. Daddy, how about we go out and have some fun. Just the two of us like our old days." Miley said.

"No. That's okay. I'll be in town for a few days. There'll be plenty of time for that. There is something i want to talk to you about." Robby said. "Besides, this gives me the chance to spend some time with these boys." He said as he places both his arms around the boys. He gave off a smile, but both the boys feel nervous about this.

…

Davis

Davis headed into town to meet up with his friends as a fast food restaurant. He met with Ken and Yolei and told them about Robby paying them a visit.

"Really? Miley's dad is in town? That must be nice." Ken said.

"Yeah, but I opened my big mouth and I got myself into a little trouble with him." Davis said.

"Isn't that what you usually do?" Yolei said. Ken laughed a little at that, but Davis glared at him and he kept quiet. "So what happened?"

"I may have insulted his music when I didn't know he was listening and I don't think I really have much to learn from him." Davis said. "He's a country singer. I'm a pop singer. We're like very different. I don't even like country music. What could he teach me?"

"I don't know, Davis." Ken said. "Mr. Stewart was the one that taught Miley everything she knows about being a performer. Maybe he can help you."

"It can't be that bad. What kind of songs did he sing back in his days?" Yolei said as she took a sip of her soda.

"He sang something about a mullet and how he wanted it back." Davis said, but when he said that, Yolei spit out her soda and some of it sprayed against Ken.

"Thanks for the soda shower." Ken said as he tried to clean himself up.

"Did it go "I want my mullet back"? Was that it?" Yolei asked.

"Yeah. That's it." Davis said. "What the heck is a mullet anyway and why does he want it back?"

"It's an old hairstyle that's not in anymore. Not important." Yolei said as she doesn't care about that at the moment.

"It kind of is. Miley told me he has a weird thing with his hair." Davis said.

"Yolei, what's wrong?" Ken said as Yolei looked pretty shocked. Yolei reached across the table as she grabbed Davis by his shirt and pulled him in.

"What's….wrong….with…..you?!" Yolei said.

"People are staring." Davis said as he saw all the looks they were getting and Davis got himself loose from her. "What has gotten into you?"

"Yolei, are you a fan or something?" Ken said.

"My uncle, the one that lives on a farm, plays that song all the time." Yolei said. "It isn't half bad. Davis, I think you were pretty stupid to turn him down."

"It's not that big of a deal." Davis said. "Look, I'm not trying to disrespect him or anything. I just don't think I have anything to learn from him."

….

The Penthouse

"And that's how Davis set a whole stage on fire." Miley said as she finished telling a story about another mishap Davis got into. "What's more was that it wasn't even his fault. The lights were getting all faulty and he just went with it rather than stopping the show."

"Wee….doggies. That boy really is something else." Robby said as they both shared a laugh. As they were talking, Jesse came in and had a dish to serve them.

"Here we go." Jesse said as he removed the lid and showed something he made. "One of those catfish things that Miley says you like so much."

"Wow. Not bad, Jesse. It looks great." Miley said.

"All for the best father around." Jesse said as he tried buddying up to Robby. Robby looked over the dish.

"Where are the eyeballs? They're the best part." Robby said.

"The eyeballs?" Jesse said as he realized that he made a big mistake. "I thought Miley said you hated those parts. I threw them out."

"Threw them out?" Robby said. "Son of a biscuit man. There's no point in even eating this now."

"But I spent hours making this trying to get it just right." Jesse said. "No. You know what, you're right. You deserve better and I will do better….just as soon as I find another catfish." Jesse put the dish down and walked out trying to find some place that sells catfish. When he was gone, Robby could not stop laughing.

"Dad, not funny." Miley said.

"I don't know. I think it was." Robby said.

"You never were funny and you still aren't. Now stop messing with Jesse." Miley said.

"Lighten up, Mile. It's just how I show love for the boy. That's what happens in family." Robby said. "You and Jackson messed with each other like that out of love all the time."

"We messed with each other, but I don't remember claiming it was out of love." Miley said. Both of them had a small laugh. It's been a while since they had father and daughter time like this. That was right when Davis and the others came in.

"Hey, Miley." Davis said. They came in normally, but that quickly changed when Yolei screamed the moment she saw Robby Ray.

"Oh my gosh!" Yolei said as she ran right over to him. "You're Robby Ray! I can't believe I'm meeting you!"

"How about that? I'm in my fifties, but I still got nice young ladies excited to see me." Robby said as he actually enjoyed this. Davis and Ken were a little shocked to see her like this.

"She did say it was her uncle that was a fan, right?" Davis asked.

"I thought so." Ken said. Both of them looked at her strangely and Yolei felt like she was busted.

"Fine. I like country music too." Yolei said. "My uncle got me into it whenever I visit him on the farm."

"Sorry about her. Robby, these are my friends Ken and Yolei." Davis said.

"Nice to meet the both of you." Robby said. "I'm glad your back, Davis. Have you changed your mind about me teaching you a few things?"

"Nope." Davis said. "That's nice of you to offer, but I'm doing pretty well, old timer."

"Old timer?" Robby said. "Oh... I get it. I'm an old timer. The big shot doesn't want help from a pro like me. Just because I play country music, which is not your style, you think I can't teach anything."

"I didn't say any of that….but that sums it up." Davis said. Miley smacked herself in the head when he said that.

"Fine. Have it your way." Robby said as he walked off.

"Nice." Miley said as she went after him. Davis felt like he messed up.

"I did it again. Didn't I? I opened my mouth and caused some trouble." Davis said.

"I'm afraid so." Ken said as he was eating. "Hey. What is this stuff exactly? It's delicious." Davis took a look at what he was eating and was a little disgusted.

"I think that's catfish." Davis said. As soon as he said that, Ken spat out what he was eating. "So I messed up?"

"You just insulted a legend." Yolei said as she got right in his face.

"I didn't mean to. I just don't need his help when I'm doing fine." Davis said.

"I think it might be more to it than that." Ken said.

"What do you mean?" Davis said.

"Let's look at the facts." Ken said. "Miley is your mentor, but everything she learned about performing, she learned from her father. However, Miley doesn't perform anymore. Especially since she's looking out for you. On top of that, his kids don't live with him anymore and it doesn't look like he's getting back in the performing gig. Maybe he wants to feel like he's a part of it again through you. Maybe Mr. Stewart is having some sort of midlife crisis."

"A midlife crisis? What's that?" Davis said.

"It's when someone realizes how old they're getting and have problems with things such as identity and self-confidence." Ken said.

"Oh! Yeah, I remember my grandfather went through something like that." Davis said. "Couldn't he just rent a motorcycle or something like most guys?"

"Davis!" Yolei shouted for even saying something like that.

"Sorry." Davis said. "I just have trouble understanding what is so great about his kind of music. He does seem like a great guy, but what makes his music so great."

"I'm glad you asked." Yolei said as she went and fetched her computer. She pulled up some old videos of Robby during his days as a performer. "Watch some of these and maybe you will understand." Yolei and Ken left him alone so he would do just that. Davis didn't think he was going to like this, but he went for it anyway. He pressed play and watched the first video from years ago.

"We're here with Robby Ray. Robby, how about you tell us about your performances?" A lady asked.

"I be glad to. I say the best part of performing is that I get to share my thoughts and feelings." Robby said.

"I'll say. You have one song about your own hairstyle. Isn't that a little vain?" The lady asked.

"I think you might want to hear it first." Robby said. That was when the video started playing his song. Most of the time, Davis kept looking videos and articles about Robby Ray and he was starting to get some sympathy for him.

…

Robby

Robby and Miley were on the balcony and were still doing some talking. Jesse came back and carried a second dish with him.

"Here we go. Catfish and I left the eyeballs." Jesse said as he showed it to Robby.

"Smells great." Robby said and Jesse thought he was in the clear. "Wait. Where's the tartar sauce? You can't have catfish with tartar sauce." Jesse put on a smile, but his actions were different as he dumped it right over the balcony and went back inside.

"Daddy, you need to stop. Now he's just wasting food." Miley said.

"It's not going to waste. Look. Those birds seem to be enjoying it." Robby said. Robby was enjoying his time, but Davis came in feeling guilty about earlier.

"Hey. Is it okay if we talk?" Davis said.

"Sure." Robby said.

"Mr. Stewart, I'm really sorry about earlier." Davis said. "I wasn't trying to disrespect you or anything. I just didn't understand. I looked online and saw a bunch of stuff about you. I even listened to your music. It wasn't half bad. I'm still not into country, but I guess an old timer like you could show me a thing or two. Especially if you're going through a midlife crisis."

"Well, thank you. I appreciated you saying that." Robby said as he put his arm around Davis and held him close. "However, you're wrong. I'm not going through a midlife crisis. I was just messing with you back there." Robby laughed and so did Miley as they really got Davis with earlier. "And you say I'm not funny, Mile."

"Okay. Maybe you are a little." Miley said.

"Okay. Good one." Davis said as he tried to laugh it off.

"I do appreciate what you just said, but you really need to experience the country side. Which is part of the reason I came here." Robby said.

"You tried to get the country feeling in the city?" Davis questioned.

"No. I wanted you all to come with me for a trip." Robby said. "Boy, you're about to find your way to Tennessee." Not only has Davis met with Miley's father, he's about to see where she came from.
