Previously on Fire Country... This is my sister.

KUBIAK: Is it true your dad was

a drug dealer? SHARON: Our parents were

married when we were teenagers,

and then it ended badly.

Like FBI raid badly.

You judge me.

You make a point, if you can just

set a good example for your children,

they'll come out perfect

like Skye. Skye's in rehab.

We were a family, and because we didn't share any DNA

when our parents split, we split.

But here we are.

Fighting.

Apologizing.

Almost like real sisters.

MANNY: Yo, Birch. Bro, wake up.

Tell her to call 911.

Manny, what's wrong? Just like Birch.

Your labs show significant levels of pesticide poisoning.

Have the camp tested.

I got the job. What is the name of the company again?

It's the Oxalta Corporation.

EVE: I figured out what's causing the outbreak.

The water. Our well source is from Vaspar Wetlands.

SHARON: So we'll find out who owns the land. EVE: Yeah.

I work for Oxalta International Holdings.

SHARON: The corporation that's lawyering up

against some firefighters.

Officer Carson. We got to talk about your parole, Bode.

I want to know why you've been associating

with known criminals.

Pizza's here.

You want to open this? Sure.

Have I mentioned how happy I am to have you back in my life?

Only constantly.

It's-it's getting a little weird.

[Sharon chuckles]

Oh. You're not pizza.

No. And I'm not staying.

Hey, Mick. Oh. You're not pizza.

Yeah, we just covered that.

What do you mean you're not staying?

Where are you going?

My dad called. He's feeling dizzy and...

the place wants to charge him 12 bucks

just to get his blood pressure taken, so...

[chuckles]

I didn't realize you guys were having a sister hang.

Yeah, she needs my expert advice.

SHARON:Yeah, I'm meeting with the company

that poisoned Three Rock tomorrow,

and she's really good at dealing with bad guys.

You can't let them see you sweat, you know?

You got to stay calm.

Well, that's not gonna happen.

Um, how's being a badass sheriff and stuff? You good?

Life's great. Everything's great.

Totally fine and great.

You don't seem fine.

You seem a little weird and twitchy.

Mm-mm. [doorbell rings]

Pizza.

SHARON: Yeah. [clears throat]

MICKEY: I'm fine.

But you do seem weird and twitchy.

Nope.

All right, Skye had a relapse.

Oh, God, I'm sorry. Okay. She's back in rehab.

It's fine. Everything's fine.

VINCE: Hey, Mick.

This guy says he knows you.

Ozzie, what are you doing here?

He said you had a sister.

Are you Sharon?

I don't know. Am I?

Look, I'm not going back up there.

What he's doing is against the law, and I'm the sheriff.

He doesn't want to see you. He wants to see her.

[sputters lips]

Get in.

Is he kidding?

Does he look like he's kidding?

No.

♪ ♪

Hey, Dad.

I-I didn't think you were coming back up here.

I wasn't gonna let her do this alone.

Hey, Firecracker.

Don't you "Firecracker" me, Wes Fox!

You want to see me, so you send

your right-hand man to throw me in the back

of a cargo van, like I'm a hostage?

When you say it like that, you make it sound weird.

And she said, before you had the van,

you used to put her in your trunk?

Once. Oh.

Look, it was just the last five miles.

Okay.

People think I grow illegal weed.

I don't. [clears throat]

But I still like to keep my home location a secret.

Especially from the sheriff.

Your daughter is the sheriff.

Well, you see the bind that that puts me in.

Is that a new truck, Dad?

Don't get started on my trucks.

Come on. I got a surprise for you.

Sharon, you're with me.

Ozzie, you and Mickey take that one.

Where are we going?

We are going to the bank.

[engine starts]

[country music playing, lively chatter]

It's your friendly parole officer here

for a surprise drug test.

[scoffs] I'm clean.

Good. And you're no longer working for the weed grower?

[sighs] Look, man,

I'm trying to help my family.

Got a lot of bills for my grandfather.

Lot of ways to earn extra cash.

All I'm doing is helping Wes

clear some brush and down trees.

I don't care if you're helping him cure cancer.

You keep working for Wes Fox, you're going back to prison.

SHARON: Ooh, what the hell?

Dad, I should not be seeing this.

Close your eyes. How much is in there?

It's half a million.

There you go, boss.

Look, I heard about Walter.

And I want you to have this.

Oh, hey, I... can't accept this, Wes.

50 grand.

Can I accept this?

No.

You know, the best part about marrying your mother

was that I got a bonus daughter in the deal.

When we divorced, I wish I'd...

wish I'd tried a little harder to stay in touch.

Money's my way of trying to say that I'm sorry.

That's really generous, Wes.

I got to do something with it.

She won't let me help Skye.

Oh, he doesn't get the irony

of paying for rehab with drug money.

How do you know it's drug money?

I grow a lot of crops.

Yeah, you can't get this kind of cash from selling tomatoes.

It's not about money!

She won't even let me speak to my granddaughter.

No, she tells the rehab that, um, I am not a "safe person."

Okay, Dad, if you're mad at me, talk to me, not Sharon.

Well, I didn't know if I was allowed to speak to you.

Might trigger you.

No. Don't do that to her. She's defending her kid.

Look, Skye is really vulnerable right now.

I know that, and I'm trying to help her.

By telling her I'm the problem? That I pathologize everything?

She said that, not me.

She-she was venting.

She-she was venting, and I-I wanted her to know

that I was, I was on her side.

How about you be on my side?

Stop telling her that I am the bad guy.

S-Stop telling her that I'm the bad guy.

You're growing illegal drugs! You are the literal bad guy!

Okay, and we stay calm with bad guys.

Look, I want to see you, I want to come up here, I do,

but then I see all this other stuff

that I shouldn't be seeing.

[stammers]: Like the butane in the back of your vans

to extract hash oil

and all these trucks you buy to launder your money.

Wow, I just saw a really cool truck.

I'm the sheriff, Dad.

It puts me in a bind, is what I'm saying.

It forces me to look the other way.

And I can't look the other way when it comes to my daughter.

She's susceptible to all of this.

The fancy cars and the easy money and you.

You can be in my life.

But I will not have her become you.

Let's go.

Hey, uh, Ozzie, can we, can we have a ride?

When I die, I'm leaving all of this to Skye.

I'm gonna have a lawyer draw it up.

So you-you can walk away. [engine starts]

Skye can't!

I won't, I won't, I won't have it.

♪ ♪

Hey.

Wh-What's going on? Where's everyone?

Uh, they came last night and shipped everyone out.

Sharon's meeting with lawyers today.

She wants me there.

Then they're gonna come, ship me out, too.

To where?

I don't know.

Another fire camp?

Do you ever feel like the world's out to get you?

Oh, mija.

I almost died.

But I didn't.

It's why I consider myself a very lucky man.

I hate it when you won't join me in my dark view of the world.

[chuckles] There is a lot of bad in the world.

But there's much more good.

So you look for the good.

All right?

Okay.

At least take my phone, so we can stay in contact.

Gabriela, I can't... And I will get a new one.

I almost lost you.

I can't lose you again.

Come here.

[phone vibrating]

MANNY: Hey, what does Bode want?

JAKE: There you go. Thank you.

Hey, Jake, I asked Gabs if she can cover for me today

while I head up to Wes's place. You cool with that?

Mm! Are we cool enough friends

that you can just take food off my plate?

[muffled]: I think so.

[scoffs]

We're still on standby for the Elbow Creek Fire,

which would be a good experience for you.

They're at 40% containment.

We're not getting called in on that.

Also, Gabs wants the extra work so she can

keep her mind off of Manny shipping out.

Okay, but be careful.

Yeah. Okay.

[door opens, closes]

Uh, why is Manny shipping out?

Because your company turned Three Rock

into a hazardous waste dump site.

Can I get the syrup?

VIOLET: But it's gonna get cleaned up.

Uh, I heard we made a settlement offer.

It will barely cover

the ground remediation and the crack in the well.

Oh, not to mention the pain and suffering

from the family of my dead inmate.

How about we not blame my girlfriend for that?

Your who? Girlfriend?

It's too soon? Not for me.

Well, it's a little too soon for me.

Have a good rest of the day.

[exhales sharply]

Morning, sunshine.

When did this get here?

Uh, little while ago.

Getting cold. I got to get my babies inside.

Hey, hey!

Be careful with that.

Gentle. It's a special strain.

It's what Hendrix was smoking at Woodstock.

[chuckles]

Come on, Bode. Let's get to work.

[clears throat]

BODE: Hey, Wes.

I-I can't, I can't work for you anymore.

My P.O., he's just-- he's on my case,

and I-I told him that I'm not doing anything that's criminal,

but he's not gonna let it slide.

Hey, Ozzie, you ever tell Bode what you did

before you started working for me?

Taught school. Yeah, that's right.

Ozzie was Mr. Morales, sixth grade teacher.

Making 35K a year before taxes.

Hey, you want to talk about criminal? That's criminal.

Somebody work their tail off

and not be able to afford their bills.

I pay my people well. That right, Oz?

That's right.

I'm-I'm-- and I appreciate

everything that you've done for me,

but I just, I can't... I can't keep this.

No, you earned that fair and square.

Not according to my P.O.

What do you believe?

You think that's dirty money?

You overthink things, Bode.

Ozzie, looks like it's just me and you from here on out.

Look, you're-you're gonna need a wrench with that. Here.

- I got one here, boss. - Oh, no.

Got one right here in the box.

[hisses]

[shouts] Snake!

[groaning]

[groans] How the hell did that get in there?

We got antivenom, right, boss? Yes.

OZZIE: In the first aid kit? WES: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

WES: It's a rattler. I didn't hear a damn rattle.

No warning.

That's because its rattle was cut off.

I think someone was trying to kill you, Wes.

Gabs, hey. Wes just got bit by a rattlesnake.

He's got antivenom here, but I need you to talk me through it.

Yeah. Yeah, it's red and swelling.

Okay. Hey.

Take any jewelry off, watch or whatever you got on there,

and keep, uh, keep that bite below your heart.

It's gone. The antivenom's gone. WES: It can't be gone!

We haven't used it! It's not in here, Wes!

You got antivenom at 42? You got to have some on the rig.

Yeah, we got an emergency dose.

Then let's go to 42.

No, Wes, I'm taking you to the hospital.

No, I am not going to a hospital.

They'll put me on a 48-hour observe.

I don't have time. Somebody's trying to kill me.

Wes... Give me that damn...

Hello. Yeah. This is Wes Fox.

Look, I need you to fire up some antivenom.

Rattlesnake. Yeah.

We're heading down. Be there soon.

[grunts] You're driving.

[engine starts]

Thank you for coming here.

Obviously, we're interested in resolving this outside of court.

Oh, I'm really glad to hear that,

because your settlement offer suggested that you weren't

really serious about accepting liability.

Oh, it's not a settlement.

Violet can explain the details.

Uh, yes. So we're calling this a donation...

And that comes in right after your company dumped

a bunch of pesticides at Three Rock

is at least a tacit admission of guilt.

So we thought it would be good if you met one of the inmates

who was harmed by your negligence

in order to inspire you to increase your "donation."

Oh, I thought... This was a tour.

Yes, I know. I didn't think you would come

if I told you this part.

Manny Perez, this is Bruce Merriweather from Oxalta.

Hey.

Oh. You're not...

He's not...

In handcuffs? No.

Our inmates are unrestrained and not locked up.

We trust them.

Oh. Neat.

[chuckling]

[tires screech]

[grunts]

[panting]

Hey.

You told my dad?

Of course I did.

Did you draw a line to track the spread of the venom?

It's moving. Where's the shot?

Hey, Wes. Heard you had some bad luck.

J-Just do this.

No, you're gonna go to the hospital.

Jake's gonna take you in my truck. Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Nope.

I told Bode I'm not going.

Don't care what you told Bode. I'm talking to you now.

Okay, it's safer for you to get it done there.

I called ahead. They're gonna meet you outside the ER.

You'll have the shot in your arm in four minutes.

Okay, Wes, let's go.

When you're back,

I'd appreciate if you stayed away from Bode,

who's on parole,

shouldn't be working for you.

Dad, I-I can explain.

You want to throw your freedom away?

This place is yours.

Just a couple of years.

All you got to do is just stay out of trouble.

Give me the shot.

I got high cholesterol, I got hypertension,

and now I got rattlesnake venom coursing through me.

So the longer I wait, the worse it's gonna be.

I don't feel like dying today.

I got it right here.

What are you waiting for? WES: Who called you?

Now, do as you're told.

Look, we all drank from the taps.

And it was never a problem until recently.

You know, guys, they started getting sick.

And then...

[sighs]

And then Birch...

[sighs] We didn't know what was happening.

And then I got sick.

And before we realized that it was the water,

I was already hospitalized.

Wow.

Thank you for sharing that.

I'm really sorry that happened,

but I think it's a little more complicated

than you drank some water and almost died.

No, it's not.

I don't mean to embarrass you, Mr. Perez,

but I understand you used to be a heavy drinker.

I'm sorry, uh, I don't see how that's...

MERRIWEATHER: Relevant?

Well, hypothetically, let's say there was

some contaminated spillage from our plant

that got into your water supply

and affected Mr. Perez and a few other men.

Eight other men, besides Mr. Birch, who died.

Right, and the other eight had mild symptoms.

It's just Mr. Birch and Mr. Perez who really suffered.

Both of whom had a history of alcohol and drug abuse.

So you're blaming us for this?

[laughs]

A man died.

A good man with a family. He died.

You should be the one wearing handcuffs right now!

VIOLET:Okay.

Um, I-I think what he means is that it's complicated

and there's fault to go around here.

Like with the Department of Corrections

and the crack in the well.

And the company is not in a position to... MERRIWEATHER: Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Your well has a crack?

Maybe this is a good time for us to take a break.

Come on, Manny.

[sighs]

[groans] I'm feeling better now.

Bode can take me home.

No, no, you're not going home.

All right? Somebody just tried to kill you, Dad.

Ozzie gave me a whole list of people

who might want you dead.

- He did, did he? - Yeah.

We're gonna take you to the hospital for observation,

and then a detective is gonna come interview you.

I don't want to involve the sheriff.

Well, too late. I'm involved.

You know Mojave Sutton, right?

Yeah, but the last time I saw him,

we were putting out that fire at his grow

and he got sent to jail.

Well, he's out.

He's back, and he's making threats.

He said, uh,

it's time for new blood on this mountain.

Well, I told him to go to hell.

Why didn't you tell me that?

Well, I'm telling you that right now

because I think he did it.

Go talk to him before he finds out that I'm alive.

Now, he'll panic, and there's no telling what'll happen,

so you take Bode with you.

I don't want him to think that it's just cops.

Thanks, Dad. I know how to do my job.

And I know this mountain.

[sighs]

All right.

I'll go to the hospital if you go tell Mojave

that I'm not looking to retaliate.

I don't have a turf war in me anymore.

There's a crack in the well?

Technically, it's the holding tank, but yeah.

The report just came in this morning.

And how did Violet find out?

It slipped.

Uh, we were at Jake's,

it was early, and I wasn't thinking right. I'm sorry.

You understand this gives them an out?

They can say it's our fault,

and they're not 100% wrong.

Yes, they would be. They dumped the pesticides.

And I think we should take them to court.

They have deeper pockets than us and really sleazy tactics.

Merriweather can't wait to get this in front of a jury,

and then he can say we failed to inspect our equipment

and every inmate in here is an alcoholic and a drug addict.

They don't deserve any sympathy.

No. We go to court, we lose.

Thanks for coming, Mojave.

Do you know why you're here?

[grunts] I got an idea.

Um, I remember the fire

from the mountain there at your place.

You care about your family.

Well, so do I.

She's family.

Wes is her dad, and somebody tried to take him out.

So, tell me what you know about it.

Well, word on the mountain is he got bit.

Word in town is you did it.

[chuckles]

Look, for the record, he's willing to let this go.

I'm not so nice.

So, why don't you tell me what you know, why you did it.

Maybe I'll find a reason not to wreck your life.

My life's already wrecked.

I lost my kid when I went to prison,

so don't come at me all family man to family man.

I'm all about me now.

Do I think your dad should hang it up? Hell yeah.

That's a long way from trying to kill the old man.

And one thing you should know about me.

If I do take a swing at someone, I don't miss.

Now, I have things to do.

Mojave, I, uh...

I'm sorry about your kid.

This is

information that we got from Wes.

Hmm.

Well, even more reason why

he doesn't belong up on the mountain.

Old man turned into a snitch.

He's not a snitch.

He offered up Mojave so easily,

and I totally fell for it. [dialing]

Hi. It's Mickey Fox.

I'm checking in on my dad, Wes Fox.

We dropped him into the ER about an hour ago.

Fell for what?

He knew we wouldn't leave him alone,

so he gave us someone to chase.

Okay. Okay, thanks.

He left the ER five minutes after we dropped him off.

To where?

To find who really tried to kill him.

Okay, got it. [sighs]

He gives Gifford Motors so much business

they should just change their name

to Wes Fox Money Laundering.

He walked there? I don't know,

but he left in a black 2021 Range Rover.

I put a BOLO out for the car.

I got this, Bode. You don't have to...

Okay, well, you know what?

That rattlesnake means that somebody wants

to make this look like it was an accident. Okay.

Stop. You're not a detective. You're not going to help.

I just got your mom back. I'm not endangering your life.

You won't be. Wes isn't a bad guy.

You need to start seeing him more clearly.

So do you.

Okay. Now you sound like Skye.

It's because I am Skye.

I'm the poster child for messing up and addiction.

She needs her family right now more than ever...

I lost so much time with Walter when I was in prison that...

Let Wes know Skye while-while he still can.

"This is your place, Bode. 42 is your legacy."

Jake, he was just talking...

Yeah, yeah, and I heard.

Loud and clear.

Fire's winding down, Chief.

Just aerial crews now.

All right. Well, you got a visitor.

Somebody named Finn.

Chief, I was just blowing off steam.

I-I don't know how long you were standing there...

Long enough to hear what I'm gonna do

with the keys to the kingdom.

Think, Bode. Is there a worker that he fired?

Someone he did dirty?

No.

He treats all of his workers great.

Who has access to his toolbox?

He keeps it in the van. The van's always locked.

Ozzie has keys. Ozzie worships Wes.

- Have you ever seen them fight? - Never.

Wes loves Ozzie.

Yeah, he's always telling him that he'll take care of him

and that the land is gonna go to him.

My dad said the land was going to Skye last night.

He said he was gonna get his lawyer to draw up a contract.

And Ozzie heard?

Every word.

So he needs my dad dead

But the snake didn't work,

Wes figured it out, and now... He's gonna kill Ozzie.

Um...

A-A phone?

You... you bought me a phone?

And I was literally driving by the mall,

and, uh, I thought I'd do a nice thing.

And now that I see your expression,

I'm realizing it was a weird thing to do.

[alarm chiming]

Uh...

I'm trying to see more good in the world,

and-and this is good, right?

This is nice.

Yeah, that-that was the idea. Yeah.

Thank you.

Because I can.

- Yeah. - Because I have a phone. Bye!

Bye.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on, let's go.

[emergency horn honks]

[urgent chatter]

All right, Jake, you and 42 take the container.

68, start running line into the woods. Let's go.

Thanks for the tour,

but I think we're at a stalemate.

I think you should sit back down.

There's a crack in your well.

The waters have been muddied.

The waters have been poisoned. And not just here.

Also at your plant at Louisville

where the spillage into the housing project

killed four people.

Uh, where did you get that information?

That's your response to that?

No, I... It doesn't change the fact that...

That there's a crack in the well at Three Rock?

Do you know what the protocol is

when there's a crack in a well? I didn't.

It goes like this. The inspector comes out,

and they take a water sample,

and then they send it off to the lab,

and they check for pH levels

and turbidity and toxic materials.

There's a crack in the well at Three Rock,

so when we had it tested 11 months ago,

there was no toxicity in the water

and no emergent need to fix it.

But then you guys come to town,

and suddenly the water is filled with toxins.

That coupled with the fact that this isn't your first rodeo

poisoning people to death

makes me think that you should really sit back down.

♪

I knew it was Ozzie

the moment I saw there was no antivenom.

Who else could it be?

Why didn't you tell me?

'Cause I wanted a chance to fix it.

Let him explain himself.

He was laying in wait for me when I got here.

He'd already spread the lighter fluid.

I should have brought my gun.

Never thought he'd try to kill me twice.

You didn't kill him 'cause you're a good person, Dad.

Bode was right. You doubted that?

You don't make it easy.

I may not be the dad you want, but I'm the one you got.

And I'm the one you got.

A sheriff.

Ah. Every family's got a black sheep.

There we go. Take good care of him for me.

All right, come on.

This time, you are going to the hospital.

VINCE: Sheriff, you want to get

your guys out of my hot zone?

Ozzie's heading back up the mountain.

He's going to the bank.

I got to go get him. No.

You're not doing that. It's right up the valley.

Yeah, and the fire's running up the mountain.

The winds are kicking up.

It's too dangerous.

I got a potential murderer out there.

All right? I'm not walking away from that.

Well, I can't let you just go chasing him into a fire.

Not without one of my guys, anyway.

Hey, send-send me. I'll go.

I can go. I know where the bank is.

No. Bode, uh, go up to the main road,

keep it clear for emergency traffic.

Jake, go with Mickey. All right.

I want you back in ten minutes.

Copy, Chief.

The bus is here.

Am I going to another fire camp?

No.

Prison. Lompoc.

[laughs]

[sniffles] You know, I told my daughter

to look for the good in the world.

I'm having a hard time seeing it myself.

Look, I'm gonna take care of Gabs.

I know.

Is Sharon still in there?

Yeah, it's a little intense.

Yeah, well, she's gonna make sure

they don't poison any more people.

See, there it is.

A little bit of good, man.

[laughs]

[engine revving]

OZZIE: Damn it!

MICKEY:Ozzie!

Stop!

Put that gun down!

Why don't you let me skate, Mickey?

Why don't you let me just take ten grand,

and you'll never see me again?

Drop that gun now!

- Do it! - Okay.

I'm gonna slowly put it down.

Hands up, behind your head.

Turn around.

You're under arrest.

Okay. Hey, we got to go now!

What about the money, Mickey? Don't worry about the money.

Go. We got to move.

JAKE: Chief, we're headed back now.

Fire's running across the mouth of the valley.

Is there another way out of here?

No. It's closed off on three sides.

That's why he keeps his money here.

You hear that?

Yeah, I heard.

Just come back the way you came.

I'll find you a way out.

MICKEY: We can't go this way!

JAKE: We can't go back.

All I see is fire.

He said to go back the way we came.

Hang on.

Hey, Chief, we're running out of options here.

[static crackling]

He said to keep going. He must have a plan.

Mickey. Mickey. Hey.

Trust me. I trust him.

All right?

[airplane approaching]

Wait! Wait!

Water drop!

[panting]

[laughs]

All right, stay with me.

SHARON: Hey.

[sighs]

[chuckles softly]

You got them to pay to clean up Three Rock?

That's not all I got.

JAKE: Hey, Chief. VINCE: Hey.

I'm sorry about before, that you overheard that.

Look, I don't have any beef with Bode.

I want him to succeed, really I do.

But I want that, too.

And I want to know

if there's room here for me to grow.

Are you not growing already here?

Every day, getting better at the job?

Yes, no. I know, but...

I'm captain,

and the next step is battalion chief.

I just want to know if I'm in line.

For my job?

Well, yeah, that's the plan.

Eventually...

...to be you.

Okay, Jake, listen, I appreciate your ambition,

but I'm not dead yet.

Copy, Chief.

Hi. Oh, my God!

What are you doing?

I broke in.

You really got to start using your deadbolts.

What's wrong?

I went to visit Dad in the hospital.

He's in the hospital? Oh.

Right. It's been a long day.

A lot happened.

Um, everyone's fine. Mostly everyone.

Okay, now you're just scaring me.

[sighs]

I-I told him that if we're gonna have a relationship,

he's got to go legal

or I've got to stop being sheriff.

You know, and I'm-I'm not gonna stop being sheriff.

You said that to him?

I did.

I said it calmly like you're supposed to do

with the bad guys. With the bad guys.

Um, I told him that I didn't want his money.

I want him.

I do.

I really want my dad in my life.

I see you do. I know you do.

And I thought that if I asked him nicely,

you know, that he'd...

Um, he said he was too old to change.

Um, so...

He said no.

[inhales sharply]

It's gonna be okay.

[rock music playing, lively chatter]

[groans softly]

Finn got me this. That's not weird, right?

Like, he knew I needed one, so he went out and got one.

It's a little bit weird.

You and I just think that because we're damaged.

No, we're not.

Yes, we are. So damaged.

Bode, I think I'm cursed, and you think you're invincible.

No, I d-- I don't.

You knew that you could get in trouble

going to work for Wes, and you still did it anyways.

You got to be careful,

or they can send you back to prison like they did my dad.

No, don't get mad.

I'm just looking out for you.

That's... I'm not mad.

That's not what this look is.

No? No.

What is it th-- Hey.

You're out? I'm out.

I'm out, baby girl. I'm out.

I'm out.

What? Like, forever?

Out, like, forever.

How? Why? What-what...

Sharon, she, uh, she made a deal.

Got the company to pay for cleanup

and got the D.O.C. to release me early.

So the D.O.C. and the company admitted negligence?

Yeah, not exactly.

I had to agree not to sue them and sign an NDA.

I mean, I-I don't know

if I did the right thing, though, you know?

You did the right thing.

Yeah?

Oh! [laughs]

I can make us pasta

or, oh, grilled cheese.

Grilled cheese. Great. [door closes]

Oh, it's Bode.

SHARON: Uh, Bode, come in.

I'm just about to make some grilled cheese.

You made Manny sign an NDA?

I didn't make Manny do anything.

What choice did he have?

I got Manny out of prison today, for good,

and I got Oxalta to clean up Three Rock.

By agreeing to stay silent?

And-and asking him just to stay silent.

So now Oxalta can go on and... and do this in-in another town?

Is that really my fault?

Hey, this, um... this is from Wes.

C-Can you just... can you give it back to him?

You know, my-my P.O. says that this is all dirty money

and that Wes is dangerous,

but Wes didn't kill anybody, and they did.

So I don't see how this money

is any dirtier than the money that you took today.

That's not really fair.

Bode, come on. Don't walk out.

[door closes]

How did I become the bad guy?
