Say now, darling, I haven't seen you here before.

I've been sitting here waiting for something to come through the door.

Someone to watch life go by.

You know what, this is going to surprise you.

But I actually like what you got on the radio today.

Really? Yeah, man, it's not that stuff you normally have us listening to.

Stuff? What do you mean, stuff?

Well, it's...

The Texas stuff, you know.

Texas stuff. Yeah.

Don't get so defensive. I'm just, it's, I mean, it's different. It's refreshing.

Refreshing. Yeah.

That was a lone star son of Texas.

Oh, so you knew he was from Texas.

Yep.

Probably a relative of yours.

Nope.

Hey, what's up?

There you go. Let's go.

Thank you.

You're back.

The Lynn sisters?

No registration, no serial numbers.

These discs are pirate.

Hey, I am a music producer.

I don't look like discs.

Really?

I wonder what this is.

It's still the master disc to Pirates of Purdue.

I'm confused here, Harry. Does that make you feel good?

Stealing from your clients to make an extra buck?

Who's your contact, Harry?

I got contacted with an anonymous letter.

20 Gs for each master disc I bring in.

Drop it here, you get an envelope with money.

That's it.

So it sounds like you should be getting paid today.

Normally, yes.

But since you all showed, odds are the people who pay me won't be coming round.

Let's go.

You're upset.

I understand.

Don't be.

All I'm saying is there's a little hitch. We need an extension.

Nothing more. Nothing more.

Boys, let us remember it is you who brought this deal to me. We did.

I agreed to your terms only because you promised me a swift turnover.

I know.

And to ensure that turnover, I advanced you $2 million.

All right, cons, spare us the recap, okay?

The bottom line is still, when this deal goes through, you triple your money.

Now that's a 300 % profit, and if I were you, that's what I'd be focusing on.

That's too bad.

Because by this week's end, I will either get the million CDs I contracted

or my two million dollars back with interest.

Or I will see you both dead.

If I were you, that's what I'd be focusing on.

Yes, Helen?

Nothing.

All right.

Con wants the Lynn sisters fine.

We'll give them to him.

How? They're in town this week for a show. And so?

So, we kidnapped them.

In the eyes of a ranger, the unsuspecting stranger had better know

wrong from right.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

He, all you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.

This is a big bus, partner.

You realize how much these CDs are worth, man?

Ten million.

Ten million... Yeah.

Ten million dollars.

It's amazing to me how much value people put in this kind of music.

Say what?

I said it's amazing to me how much value people put in this kind of music.

What kind of music are you talking about?

Popular music.

Fake? Music? I mean, everybody knows that bands are touching everything up

nowadays. The technology.

Make Bullfrog sound like Billie Holiday.

I'd be surprised if the Lynn sisters even sing on their own now.

Well, why don't you ask them?

Why don't you call them right up?

You don't have to. They're right behind you. There we go.

Oh, my God.

I want you and Jimmy to say hello to an old friend of mine, Frank. And also say

hello to the Lynn sisters, Peggy and Patty. Hi, it's me. How are you doing?

So what brings you folks down here?

Well, Frank and I were in the service together.

Since then, he's evolved into a top music manager. And I just want to say

to you rangers for busting up that piracy ring yesterday. Well, we all do.

And putting a stop to our producer.

No, no, that's our former producer.

Yeah, that Harry, he was slipperier than a pocket full of custard.

And guess what? To show their appreciation,

the Lynn's have offered to do a benefit for the center at C .D.'s on Monday

night. We thought it was a perfect ending to our tour across Texas.

What do you think about that, Cordell? They're going to be playing and singing

at my little old barn grill. Wow, sounds great, C .D. That's better than great.

Tibet, didn't you have a question for the Lynn sisters?

No. Oh, yes, you did.

Come on now, you can ask it. We ain't going to bite you.

I was just hoping that you might send me an autographed picture.

Absolutely.

Music pirates cheat the fans just like they cheat the artists.

And you guys are doing something to put a stop to that. Thanks, thanks, thank

you. You're welcome.

You're welcome too.

So are you.

See you later, Helen.

Is everything all right, sirs?

Oh, yeah.

Ringo and I were just going to take a little vacation for a week. A vacation?

Yeah, you know, I'm sorry. I should have told you.

Nothing but half days and full pay for you for a week.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Oh, you know what?

Make sure to feed the fish.

Of course.

Have a good week, Helen.

Yeah, Helen.

Killer week.

Brock? Gentlemen?

You sure you can pull this off?

Hey, if the money's rank, I can do anything.

We need them in 24 hours.

They'll have them in 12.

Good.

I'll give it some time to tie up Luthan.

on our way.

We got him. The next level of our piracy operation.

Your punch was right, Walker.

We cross -checked the serial numbers on the confiscated discs with numbers on

blank discs ordered by local dub houses.

That plus a little chat with producer Harry gave us the name and address for

source of the bootleg disc.

It's a studio down in Deep Ellum called Smokin' Dubs. Good job, people.

Yeah, go check it out.

Leave nothing but dust.

You want some more, guys?

Nikki?

Oh, man.

You know this guy? Yeah, looks like we've run across an old snitch of mine.

How you doing, Nikki?

Thought you went clean. Ah, well, clean wasn't paying the bills.

Well, that's too bad, because you just got bumped down to prison wages.

What are you working for, Nikki?

Man, I... I don't know.

Hmm. I don't believe you, Nikki. Well, then you should talk to my lawyer. You

know what? I've got a better idea. How about you tell us who you're working

or I'm going to put the word out on the street that you're a rat who tells

everything to the law.

Ouch. You know, Nicky, rats don't last long, especially in prison.

Bad you wouldn't.

Okay.

Look, we all got paid by this guy at Burning Records.

Downtown, he set the whole thing up. Burning Records.

Go there, you'll find your man.

Okay?

I'll radio Walker.

They named it Burning Wreck as they were a kid.

Walker. Hello, Pete. You're a vet? Pete.

Since when did Ranger start working in Parson?

Since we're on a case.

What happened here?

Some kind of a firebomb blew out the entire suite of offices up there and

they're bringing the remains down now.

Remains?

Know who it is?

It's tough to say.

It may be the secretary.

A closer walk.

Precious Jesus is my plea.

Daily walking close to thee.

Let it be.

Let it be.

Let it be, dear Lord.

Let it be.

Well?

Absolutely beautiful.

Truth be told, I could listen to you girls sing from here to forever.

Now, that's the kind of fans we like.

I'm in position.

Position confirmed.

Bushmaster, you have a visual contact in five, four, three, two, one.

Visual confirmed.

Roger. Hit it.

Let's go. Get him out of here.

All right, put the bodies in the bus and jump it. Go.

Stefan and Ringo Walkburn.

These are two brothers as bad as they come, Walker.

Stefan's a brain, pulls in money from a combination of legal and illegal

sources.

Ringo's the muscle.

Says he was 18 when he was expelled from school for running a drug ring.

Last seen, they controlled a high -volume extortion racket in Nashville,

fronting as record producers.

At least they did until a murder was traced to them. Charges didn't stick.

They both disappeared a week later.

No trace of them, huh?

Well, bank accounts closed, associates and employees disappeared, and the

building burned to the ground.

Sounds familiar.

These boys just keep getting worse all the time.

Yeah. There's something wrong, fellas.

Frank was supposed to have called me just as soon as he got to San Antonio,

I hadn't heard a damn word.

Have you tried calling him? I called the hotel twice. They haven't even checked

in yet, Cordell. There's something wrong.

We'll check into it, CD.

Good.

My brother Ringo and I would just like you to rest assured you have nothing to

worry about.

We've simply taken you on.

As artists.

Yeah. What does that mean, you've taken us on as artists?

Just what it sounds like.

We want you to do a little recording for us.

A recording?

And a music video, too.

And what if we say no?

You don't want to go there.

Searching every highway, byway, and back road and stuff.

Well, they got to be down there someplace.

A bunch of them can't disappear into thin air.

Gage, what's that?

Where?

Down there by the building.

Take us down.

No, we appreciate it. Thanks.

Okay, thanks, Jim.

I don't get it. No sign of the banner crew in six hours, and nobody's picking

the phones.

Yeah, and DPS doesn't spot the bus either.

Doesn't make sense.

Parker.

Okay.

The agents didn't spot the bus.

They're sending the chopper to pick us up.

Died, Walker.

Dead.

The girl?

No, they're not here.

Looks like the bus is ladded out up on the main highway.

The front tire was maybe spiked or shot, then they were ambled. The bodies were

tossed inside the bus, and the bus was towed up a fire trail to here.

Rinse? No, nothing.

No cells, no fiber traces either.

You guys were pros.

Yeah.

Well, one of the pros lost it.

This little earring can be found in over 50 places in Dallas alone, partner.

What about this one?

38 Special Bar.

That's the trademark for the bar.

Yeah.

Let's check it out.

Call Gates and Sidney and meet us there.

My kind of place.

Yeah.

Gives a whole new meaning to the term hole in the wall.

I mean, did that guy lost an earring or he just had a run -in with Mike Tyson?

Only one way to find out.

That's his Rangers.

Oh, you take the front door. I'll take the side door.

Stay there.

Cover the front. I'm going in.

Kid, I want you to cover the front.

There are no bad guys out front.

That's right.

We're here.

Any comments before you die?

Yeah. I'd like to stick this gun up your nose and clean out your sinuses for

you.

Any other helpful comments?

Just three words.

Walker and Prevent.

I do have one more comment.

You're under arrest.

be even better than I thought, bro.

Yeah, well, just don't get too attached, all right?

The only way we're going to get Con to pay top dollar for this feeding and

is if it's the lens' last one ever.

Yeah, I know.

Still, I can appreciate the talent while it's alive.

Well, I guess we shouldn't work our talent to death then, huh?

They're getting tired.

Cut.

Okay, we're going to stop taping. Give you two a beauty rest.

Isn't that just real kind of y 'all?

Enough, all right?

Get him upstairs.

Lights out.

And alone.

We'll meet you both fresh tomorrow.

Oh, would you stop?

You're wasting your time.

Sit down.

You think so, Brock?

Listen.

You can't promise me anything I can't live without.

And you can't threaten me with anything I haven't lived through already.

So you got nada, nothing.

That affects me.

What are we doing? They're not going to let us go, Patty. Not with what we've

seen. We've got to get out of here.

There's guards everywhere, Peggy. Do you have any better ideas? I don't know.

Think of something. You think of something. I don't know what to do here.

We sing.

What?

We sing.

Not the way they want us to.

For them to get their recording, we have to keep singing.

Just until help arrives. We use our artistic license.

Our artistic license.

We stall.

We've been at this all night, Ranger. Give it up.

Look. I've told you, you're wasting your time.

You are tough, Brock.

I'll give you that.

You're not only tough, you're a mercenary and you're wanted all over the

It's amazing how many nations are already asking us to turn you over to

trial.

Looks like they all want you dead.

Or worse, Brock.

Wouldn't surprise me.

But since I'm an American, I'm still protected by this nation's law.

I guess the world's going to have to do without me.

Did you ever do any work in Afghanistan, Brock?

What's that got to do with anything?

Well, their government has requested for us to turn you over to them for trial.

It must have broken your hearts when you had to tell them no.

Actually, I was able to convince the State Department to agree to it.

You bluffed. You want to bet your life on it?

You can call our bluff, and that's fine.

But the minute we walk out this door, the negotiations are over.

Oh, uh, you know how they execute people over there, don't you, Brock?

Wait.

Stephon and Ringo are holed up at a compound near Jacksboro.

Walker's waiting at the chopper.

Tell me you have what I want.

Sorry, Con, we don't. You don't?

How unfortunate.

Not really.

See, what we have is even better.

Peggy and Patsy Lynn.

They're there? Yeah.

Live and in person.

And I guarantee you they're not going anywhere.

Interesting. Yes.

Very. Good.

Then the original CD and video are going to cost you double.

Oh, and Con, you know what?

Make sure you're ready to pay when you get here.

Stefan, it will be my pleasure.

This is the fifth time y 'all have messed up here.

What's going on?

There's nothing going on. Don't lie to us. We're not lying.

Really? Really.

You know, tell me.

How long does it take for you to normally do a recording?

Well, as long as it takes to get it right.

Or as long as it takes to feel good about it.

Really?

That's funny because I thought that it was as long as it takes for you two to

get yourselves out of here.

What? Yeah.

They've been stalling, Ringo.

Playing with it. No, we haven't. Yes, you have!

And you know what?

Let me tell you something.

Playtime is over!

How's this, bro?

I have no idea.

Here's the money.

We're the girl.

We arrived just in time, Con. The girls are just about to finish recording.

Excellent.

You see, I've come up with the perfect ending for the production.

Time for your swan song, ladies.

No worry.

I'll be rolling.

No matter what.

You're a sick man, Con.

With a million video units, I can sell at a hundred American dollars each. I'm

rich, sick man.

We've got to make a thing.

Just a closer walk with thee.

Beautiful.

Take out the guard.

I'll go find the girl.

Jesus. Jesus.

Jesus.

Thank you.

Punch it, bro!

The lady said freeze.

Oh.

Okay, girls, come on out.

It's all right. It's safe.

You all right?

Yeah, we're okay.

Glad to be alive.

What took y 'all so long?

Yeah, what took you so long?

Great concert, C .D.

Yeah, I just switched over Frank here to see it.

Oh, I think he is, C .D.

What you got there, Trevette?

Oh, nothing. It's just an autographed photograph the Lynn sisters gave me.

It's not that big of a deal.

No big deal?

It's not that big of a deal.

To Jimmy, thank you. From the bottom of our hearts, Patsy and Peggy Lynn.

Seems like a pretty big deal to me.

Yeah, it's kind of a big deal. It's a big deal.

It's a big deal because I'm the only guy on the force that gave one to her.

Well, aside from me, look at that.

Ranger Gage, isn't that great?

And me too.

Actually, they gave autographs to the whole unit.

Isn't that great, Jermaine?

We'd like to make a dedication to our new friends, who we wouldn't be here

without them, the Texas Rangers, and our beloved Frank, whom we met.

Just a closer walk to thee.

Grant me Jesus is my plea.

Daily walking close to Thee.

Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

Because that's where the Rangers run.
