Bobby Mackey is a successful country star who had been touring over the last 12 years.
But something happened recently that's caused him to want to change the course of his life a bit.
His wife, Janet, is pregnant.
So now he wants to spend more time with his family, kind of settle down a bit.
So he wants to do a different career, but pursue something that he's always wanted to do.
He wants to open up a honky tonk bar.
He wants a place where you could bring back the classic country musician style bar that you see in old Americana across the country.
And he's finally found a location for it.
And he wants to show his wife.
So he takes Janet to show the new location.
As he shows her, he says he can already see people dancing.
He can already feel the good times happening.
It's all pictured in his mind.
But Janet... doesn't agree.
She has a terrible feeling about this place.
As soon as she lays eyes on it, it's old, decrepit, doesn't see the potential that her husband sees.
And there's just something about it that feels eerie.
Now, this is one of the locations that her husband has been looking at over the last little while when he's trying to find a place for his bar.
And every time she says, I don't like that place.
Let's look for a different place.
But her husband's drawn to it.
Now, Bobby is saying, it's just all in your mind right now.
We're taking a big step.
Let's just go inside.
