Previously on The Hunting White.

This is Sophie and her husband, Graham.

They just moved here from Boston. How did I not know you were married? And to

such a cutie pie.

Have you seen Brad?

He's probably inside with the twins.

I'll go look.

Stop.

We did it before.

Lord God, please remove the desire from my heart. And Lord God, please remove

the desire from Brad's heart. I'm sorry, Mrs. Banks.

Won't happen again.

You better not.

Some of y 'all may have heard rumors that I was throwing my hat in the ring

government. Ron, everything changes. You really want people looking at the way

we have fun?

It's just you and the gun.

One thing.

Working together.

You look like this gal Mandy I used to know.

Let's get the fuck out of here.

So what's your deal?

My deal?

I mean, I get not drinking and driving, but you don't do either.

I had a car accident a few years ago.

I had had a few drinks.

All I wanna do is roll the dice.

I've made a whole heart awake at the sound of Jesus' name.

Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom, there is freedom.

Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom, there is freedom.

are we doing here?

When the boss invites you to come to church, you go to church.

Wow.

Y 'all are singing praise to him. How about holy arise and worship? Can we get

big hand for him? Aren't they wonderful?

And my wife.

You all know my lovely wife, Jill.

Hi, everybody.

She is so devoted.

to Project Life, to our Women's Fellowship Circle. But what I'm most in

is how she's opened up our home to the community.

So now, I'd like to try and be as welcoming as my wife, and I'd like to

all the first -timers here to come up to the stage and let us honor you.

Come on.

That's right. Come on up.

Oh, my God. Go ahead. Go, go, go. Grab him.

Jack, buddy. That's right. Don't be shocked. Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Can we get a big old holy horizon welcome to our new parishioners?

That's right. That's right. Welcome, y 'all.

Thank you for coming up.

Now, today, we're going to be talking about the book of Psalms, chapter 6.

I flood my bed with weeping.

Now, those are David's words.

Do you know why he wrote them?

Hmm? Because David had sinned.

David had inflicted pain.

David had killed.

And he hated himself for it.

Now we've all felt that way, haven't we?

I know I have.

You just can't go on.

Maybe you think you don't deserve to go on.

Maybe you think you're unlovable.

But you are not.

Because God, has made a deal with us all, hasn't he?

That's right. And what is that deal?

That deal is love. And that deal is mercy.

That deal is grace.

Doesn't that sound good?

Hi, I'm Sophie.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

I hope you don't mind me saying this, but I thought you looked so happy up

there. You look so peaceful.

Good. Yeah, yeah, thank you.

Peace is good.

Yeah, it is.

Oh, hey, I don't know what you're doing later on, but if you want to come lend a

hand at Project Life, it's led by the Reverend's wife. Sophie!

Hey, you! Come on over here.

Aren't those new shoes?

Those are so cute with the little silver buckle.

Come here.

I'll see you around. Okay.

I see you made a new friend.

Yeah, I guess so. She seems really nice.

Sweet as pie.

So, what did you think of our church?

It's great. I knew you would love it. You looked positively born again up

Jesus does love a sinner.

Sinning? Who's sinning? What'd I miss?

I was actually just invited to something called Project Sin. Life? Don't worry.

It's just putting together baby care, kids. It's not bombing clinics.

No, because there are no clinics left to bomb.

Thanks to us. At least not in Texas.

Buffy, isn't that your son?

Oh, oh, oh. Sorry, sorry. Jack, Jack. You sure got one feisty little hound dog

there. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Hey, now.

Word on the street says that the Sunday school teacher has donuts.

Do you like donuts?

Yeah. All right, good. Well, you go on and look for the lady with the pink box.

Now, as much as I love communing with the Lord, maybe it's time to change the

tune a little bit.

How about y 'all come over to our place tonight for a proper get -to -know -you?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Now we're talking.

Let's do it. Sounds fun.

I think he's been working out.

No, he's the pastor.

Hey, boys.

T -minus trace to minus till our mission trip to Mexico. Now...

Tell me y 'all aren't playing sack tap in my sanctuary. I'm sorry, Pastor Pete.

I tried to get him to stop. So did I.

Yeah, about that.

I have this basketball clinic at Baylor.

I don't think I can come on the trip.

Wait, what? I thought the clinic was after.

It's right after.

My mom said she didn't want me to cut it so close.

I bet she did.

We got to get ready for that car wash, right?

Fundraising. All right. Sorry, Pastor Pete.

We're doing our part.

Fundraising.

This is my dad's new boat for us.

Oh.

See it or not.

Hey, Nina, why don't you take Tinsley and help the boys find the cleanest

supplies? Whatever you say, Pastor Pete.

So, sounds like Mexico will just be nosotros.

And the rest of the youth mission.

Ops. Yeah.

Is everything all right, Abby?

Totally.

Come on.

I mean, I wasn't always this pious guy.

I used to struggle with temptation.

It's real.

And it can be challenging, but God can help you.

I know.

But I'm fine.

Really.

All right. Well, if you ever need to talk about anything, you call or text

anytime, all right? All right.

Hang in there.

All right.

Thanks.

So that was a little weird.

What, megachurch?

Uh, no.

You crying.

I was moved.

And also the anniversary is coming up.

It's two years.

Oh, right.

So I guess I've just been feeling a little squirrely lately.

But now I'm saved.

By Jesus.

I feel better.

Hey, y 'all. Hey.

Chuck, here's the quarter on mission.

50 bucks for the luck.

Yeah, you guys, uh, you take that, man?

Yes, sir.

Great. How you doing, little man?

I love fish.

He does. He loves them.

Thanks. Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. O 'Neil.

Hey, do me a favor. Just be careful with the car.

Don't you worry about it, sir.

I'll treat your gal real nice.

Thanks.

Gendered the car.

I hate to say it, but you were right.

Oh, yeah?

About what?

Well, if I run, we're bugs under a microscope.

Thank God.

I'm not saying I ain't running. I'm just saying you weren't wrong.

Why are you so upset about this?

I don't know. Maybe because of everything about me.

Everything about how we met.

The person you see now, she hasn't always looked like this.

Come on now, everybody loves you.

Each of us has our own higher calling. This is mine, so get used to it.

Enough said.

You like it, I love it.

Good girl.

Now I gotta ask, is there anything more recent I should be worried about? Any

bodies to dispose of?

You mean other than all the women we've watched each other fuck?

No.

What about your brother?

You think he'll be an issue?

Yeah, probably.

Nothing I can't handle.

Oh shit, look who it is.

You plan on moving

back in?

Never in my fucking life.

I know what you did this time, but you better handle your fucking shit.

The one -eyed asshole you owe money to?

I don't know any one -eyed assholes. The guy who keeps following me around,

calling me Mandy?

Yeah, that sounds like a you problem.

Don't put your fucking guilty conscience on me.

My guilty conscience, huh?

Because you're a fucking angel.

20K. That buys me one year.

365 days where you keep my name off your lips.

Yeah, an election year should cost you a little extra, don't you think?

That is extra.

My lawyer will follow up with an NDA.

You know, you might have fucked and sucked your way to the top, but you're

always going to be Mandy from Alba, Texas.

And we're always going to have the same shitty genes.

One year.

Don't you forget it, Mandy.

Hi, honey. You home?

I'm coming over.

This could be the hardest thing I ever have to do.

What is?

What's wrong?

Honey, you know I love you, right?

I know I don't say it, but you know that I do.

Oh, Mark, I love you too.

We can't keep doing this, honey.

Why?

Why not?

Ted.

Fuck.

Fuck. Did he know?

No, no.

Just he... He has this stupid fixation on becoming governor.

Fucking Texas.

You know, people are going to want dirt and they're going to dig.

And you and I both know I ain't no fucking Laura Bush.

Laura Bush literally killed someone, Margo.

You know what I mean? No, never mind all that, Margo. This is about you and me.

You're right.

It is.

I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I dragged you down with me. Yeah, but

I can handle it. Listen to me.

I know that I got a lot to be thankful for.

I got a great husband. I got a great family. I live for them.

You're the only person that ever made me feel alive.

And you, my baby girl, you're my heart.

But you know we could never really be together, don't you?

Yeah, I know.

Look, I'm not going anywhere.

I'm still your friend.

And I need you to be mine, too.

Can you do that for me?

Of course I'd do anything for you.

That's all I need to know.

You know what? I think I'm going to whip the beamer out tonight.

Do you think Jed's a vintage car guy?

I think we already look like freaks driving the Tesla.

Plus, it's still worth a bolo, though, right?

He said it was casual.

Oh, you think I'm trying too hard?

No.

Oh, that's all right. You're right.

I can keep it cash mode.

Me too.

Except, I think I'm going to shave my legs tonight.

Ooh, fancy.

Brad, honey, another piece of chicken?

I'm good.

Dr. Mike said 180 grams of protein a day.

I'm so proud of how much money y 'all raised at the car wash.

Are you happy?

Yeah.

I heard you were working hard. I also heard Mrs. Wayne's daughter, Sarah, said

you looked cute.

Cool. Sarah is a great girl.

Maybe you should ask her out. If you want Boyd to eat his chicken, then let

eat his chicken.

Thanks for dinner.

I'm saying goodnight to Jamie's.

Bye, Mom.

Bye, Dad.

Bye, son.

Chicken's dry.

There they are.

Hi. Welcome.

So good to see you again, honey. Good to see you.

I mean, this place really is amazing.

Who designed it? Oh, no, sir. No work talk tonight.

Okay.

Jed's out back cooking up a storm.

Y 'all eat meat, right? Huh?

Good. Oh, I should have brought a red.

So I really needed both hands. I mean, she'll tell you sometimes you need two

hands for these types of things. So I'm fighting to get that thing on the boat.

Honey, come on, it's all right. They don't mind.

Thank you, Monica.

And I'm starting to figure out which of my walls I want my marlin to be on. Oh,

please. That thing was never going on any of my walls.

Honey, honey, and then suddenly there's a shadow underwater and a damn

hammerhead shark came up and chomped it in two.

Wow, that sucks.

I know.

Okay, now that the Gorton Fisherman is done.

How about we take this party into the great room? Yeah, come on, y 'all.

Sounds nice. This is so good.

Yeah, thank you. Yeah, good chef, that Jen. Thank you so much.

So, how did you two meet?

Oh, foreign.

Internet. How about you?

Oh, we were neighbors.

She was waiting tables. I was in grad school.

Harvard, right? Yeah, actually.

How did I guess?

Well, maybe it's because you'd mentioned it about a thousand times.

Okay.

Well, don't look at me. I went to UMass.

Actually, Sophie was a bit of a wild child back then. She was a party girl.

Really? Was that so?

But don't worry, Graham.

Straightened me out.

It's true. I did.

But then... Then she found this career that she loved, and she just killed

it. I mean, it's almost scary how smart she is.

I am.

Nice.

And then when Jack was born, she just transformed into, like, the most amazing

mom. I was literally amazed.

And now she's a stay -at -home mom, and she's great at that, too.

Except why do we still need a cleaning lady, you know?

I don't know, Harvard. Maybe because...

Sophie's too busy pulling your foot out of your mouth.

Graham, I have a feeling you might want to tour the house.

I would love to.

Yes, finally.

Come on. God, I've got so many questions for you. Yeah, shoot.

Well, first of all, did you do all the interior design?

Oh, yeah. I love it.

Don't mind him.

The whiskey talking.

Exactly.

Tell you what, if we gave some of this stuff to the Taliban, they'd have handed

us bin Laden in two hours.

It's about $25 ,000 a bottle.

So I don't give this to just anybody.

25 grand?

Yeah.

Okay, that's just stupid.

Is that so?

Yeah.

You sure you don't want to try it?

No, I'm sorry. I mean, I can't.

Sure you can.

It's just a question if you want to.

I won't tell if you want.

To partners in crime.

That's really good.

You're right, it is stupid money.

But it sure is goddamn smooth.

So, you gotta check out this joiner.

Oh, shit.

Hi, I'm... Honey, you okay?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm... I'm good, I'm fine.

Sorry. You need a hand? No, no, I'm good. It's okay. I'm sorry.

Let me in. I got some soda water.

Do you at least get to enjoy your drink before you spilled it?

Look, I'm sorry about him. He can get a little familiar.

I hope you're not offended.

No, no. I'm flattered. I just hope I didn't put you in a weird spot.

Oh, nothing's weird, darling.

We have an arrangement.

Like an open marriage?

No.

Open marriages are for liberals. We just keep it simple.

I don't sleep with other men, and did not see a girl we like. We go for it.

I think we should probably go.

Yeah.

You're all clean now.

We got to do this against them. Yeah.

Absolutely. Thank you guys again so much. Have a great night.

Night, night.

I think that went really well, right?

This is the boat, my lady.

It's so cool.

Yeah? Yeah.

Mm -hmm.

Perfect like you.

Wait a second.

You liked it when I did that. I do, but I just want it to be special.

Like it was on prom night.

What already is special, Abs?

You and me?

Moonlight? I mean, it's romantic as fuck.

It'll only take a minute.

Jesus, that boy likes to fucking talk.

You didn't have fun?

Sure looked like you did.

That though?

With Sophie.

Since when is that a problem for you?

Since 10 o 'clock this morning when you said we had to bury the bodies.

I went and ended things with Callie and here you are trying to start something

new. We've been trying to get out of that for ages.

He said she was cuckoo for coca puffs.

If you're serious about running,

then we gotta be smart.

Not joining the priesthood.

It's about discretion is all.

Same goes for me.

Of course, baby.

Hi, Rosa.

Remind me, were there workmen here at the lake house this week?

No, everything's fine. Just a second.

How'd you sleep?

So good.

Last night was amazing.

Really?

Yeah.

I mean, I know it's a sin, but now I know why God

gave us this, because it brings us closer together, and it brings us closer

him. Is that why you were screaming, oh, God?

Oh, God.

Oh, God. Stop.

Stop.

I'm serious.

I could do this forever.

Yeah, me too.

I was thinking... Mm -mm.

Maybe I could come to Waco with you in the fall.

I mean, you're only a junior.

I know, but... I mean, I could finish school anywhere.

Get my GED.

As long as we're together, right?

It's just... I'm gonna be super busy with basketball.

Everything okay?

Yeah, it's just Mrs. Banks.

She wants me to coach the twins today.

Cool.

So I guess we should get going?

Unpacking and groceries.

Yes, Graham.

They feel heavy but I feel strong.

ships.

You want to talk us out?

No, thanks.

Just one minute of your time, Sophie, and you can be on your way.

How do you know my name?

It's my job.

How well do you know the Bankses?

Jesus Christ.

You're the best that they can do?

What's that now?

I just, I would have thought the Democrats would have shelled out for a

Conspicuous oppo guy. Well, you got me there. Buy a cup of coffee.

I just want to know what you make of them.

I don't talk about my friends.

They are not your friends.

You have no idea what these fucking people are capable of.

One coffee.

One coffee.

Marcus, it's cheap.

Now, I love the man, but that's bad.

Well, I'm telling you, once he tries it, he's not buying another Grady White.

What's an extra hundred grand when it comes to a bow?

I'm telling you.

Oh, you have to get a cute video of me driving.

But first, let me show you the sleeping quarters.

Patty milk, side of gravy with a large drink, two.

Oh, freeze your change.

It'll be out in a moment.

Well, hi there, Miss Banks. What can I get for you?

It's Miss Colson now.

Jed Banks is in the rear view.

Nothing for me, thanks. Double Whataburger and fries for the boys.

All right, no problem. Move right out. You both must be pretty hungry after all

that basketball, right?

Huh? What?

Honey, these boys haven't touched a basketball in their lives.

Sissy, me too.

Hey, you.

I'm here to coach the twins.

Brad, we need to talk.

Hi, what's up?

Were you here today?

Without me?

What? No.

Would you ever come here when I'm not home?

No.

That would be weird.

Is that all you wanted to talk about? No.

Listen.

Jed's running for governor.

Which means there's going to be a lot of eyes on him.

But more importantly, on me.

Good thing you're so fucking hot.

Have you ever told anyone about us, Brad?

No.

I think Jamie might suspect something from that one night after the Mavs game.

What about Abby?

You crazy?

She's the last person I tell.

She's already jealous of you.

Why would she be jealous of me? Because look at you. You're smoking.

And sometimes I can't help staring at you in church.

Now, you see, that's what I'm worried about.

No more of that.

Okay. What are you saying?

We can keep hooking up, right?

No, we shouldn't.

You know, you know I stayed in fucking Maplebrook this summer to be with you?

Well, that's so sweet.

Sweet?

Is that what you think I am?

That you think I'm just some...

Sweet little idiot fucking kid, huh?

I didn't say that.

Well,

that's what it sounded like.

You know what I think?

I think people are right about you.

Hey, you are a bitch.

Maybe.

I should tell them what else you are.

I know.

I said shouldn't.

It was miles away from wooden.

Nothing set in stone.

Really? Really.

But you can never tell anyone about us.

Ever.

You're not a bitch.

You just... You got my head fucked up is all.

It's okay.

I like it when you get all hot and bothered.

Yeah.

But we gotta be real careful moving forward, okay?

Okay.

And there can be no evidence.

Uh -huh.

So I'm gonna have to swallow.

Hey, Brandon.

Joyce,

how you doing?

You working on that Weaver stance doll?

You know I am.

I'll get you that coffee. Thank

you very much, sir.

Anything new from your Massachusetts friend? You know, you can't just come

barging in here looking to gossip any time you want. Oh, cut the shit, Johnny.

You want to know what she did just as much as I do.

I've been dying to tell you, girl.

It's juicy.

Holy shit.

Mm -hmm. What'd I say?

Juicy.

Sunshine.
