• Brickell : What is the name of your band again?

  Bart : It is "Mercy Me". Because when I told my Memaw that we were starting a band, she was like "Mercy me, get a real job!" And I was like: "Oh, Memaw."

  [groaning] 

  Bart : And the guys were like "Did she really say that?" and I was like "Yeah, we have to name the band Mercy Me". So we called it.

• Brickell : Let me ask you something Bart, what are you running from?

  Bart : My dad. He, uh, he...

  Brickell : ...he beat you, didn't he? Ya ain't got no poker face kid.

  Bart : I carry that. I have to live with that, you know. I always will.

  Brickell : Then write about it. Stop running from it. Let that pain become your inspiration.

• Brickell : [to Bart]  Son, the sheer volume of words that comes out of your mouth is exhausting. You are not ready. That's what I think.

• Brickell : [to Bart]  You got talent, you got potential, you can sing, but I don't think you found your song, found your soul.
