Previously on Fire Country...

The ATF's investigation

into the Zabel Ridge Fire

show that someone started it.

And I'm sure your son, he's gonna have feelings.

I would watch out how he gets the news.

I didn't realize you were back to being the Bode

who didn't give a damn about anything but himself.

You don't feel like getting along with me?

Feeling's mutual.

Let me tell you what I saw today.

You're exactly what 42 needs.

He just named 42's battalion chief.

It's me, Jake.

I'm gonna find a way

to get the state to reopen Three Rock.

I will not hear a no.

Yeah, we're family.

Which is why we wanted to show you something.

It was in your dad's guitar case.

Now, look, this person, R...

Which could be Renée.

Well, whoever it is,

she's coming after your mom.

B, what are we looking for?

Anything that would explain the letter.

Was that Sharon's motorcycle?

My mom's at the station.

Where we need to be getting back to.

You almost done?

Look, the ice cream from the grocery store run is melting.

Manny hates that, and it's his big day.

Yo, you trying to rip the drawers out?

It's the last place I need to look.

And here I was, trying to be inconspicuous.

You didn't have to come with me.

I know you'd rather not tell Sharon about the letter,

but pretty sure she's gonna wonder why

things look out of place.

Tell her what?

We don't even know what it means,

except my dad pissed someone off.

Yeah, "someone."

You still think that "R" is Renée?

Eve made a really good point.

His ex is a logical conclusion.

A lawyer who's won million-dollar settlements

doesn't need cash from an Edgewater fire chief.

My dad's strongbox.

Here, let me give you an assist.

Never heard my dad mention a P.O. Box.

Could be more letters.

No. No. No, no, no, no, no.

We are not making another stop.

Tonight, after shift.

Come on.

B, the drawer.

Like we were never here.

Hey, yo, Chief.

Can I call you Chief yet? 'Cause it just feels weird.

Which I probably shouldn't have said.

Probably not.

Uh, but I'm on an adrenaline rush

because I have finally gotten an audience

for the city council to talk about Three Rock,

and, uh, I refused to take no for an answer.

- And? - They didn't say no.

So I got Three Rock's land off the market,

and-and I got the Fraleys to commit

to donating lumber for the rebuild.

Wow, that's-that's great, Eve.

- That's huge. Great job. - Thanks, bud.

So what's next?

Oh, you know, not too much. I just got to

come up with a way to reduce the bill

and maybe even make a profit and, uh, yeah,

reinvent the whole camp. You know, small stuff.

Yeah, well, self-sustaining prison camp,

- that's a pretty tall order. - Yeah. Right.

And in theory, the city council loves it,

but now, I got to deliver.

And... my adrenaline's gone.

Hey, hey, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- You don't deflate, okay? - Okay. Okay.

What the hell was that?

What was what?

I thought I heard a chicken.

A chicken?

- I know. It's weird, right? - That... that would be wild.

You little escape artist. Come here.

How did you get out of the cage again?

Uh, you want to tell me what's with Foghorn Leghorn there?

Well, Foghorn Leghorn is a rooster.

This chicken is Bridget.

And what's Bridget doing here at the station?

Mm... My dad took in some displaced animals

after the Zabel Ridge fire, and I'm helping him relocate them.

And Bridget and her friends

need a place to stay for a couple days.

And, uh, she heard about my handsome,

wonderful, new battalion chief.

How many friends we talking?

So that chicken...

...laid this egg?

That is what chickens do.

Nature is a miracle.

Hey, lil' lady.

- Did you lay this egg? - Did you?

You did, didn't you? You laid this egg.

Sir, are you talking to my chicken?

Uh, yeah.

It would appear that I am.

So does that mean that's a yes?

Well, I guess my first order

as battalion chief is, yes,

Bridget and her friends can stay.

- Oh, you're welcome. - Aw.

You're so welcome, Bridget.

Oh, hey.

There you are.

Uh, Manny's been worrying about the ice cream melting.

Nah, we got it in the freezer.

What's up?

Big day. New battalion chief.

Taking over your dad's position permanently.

If it's gonna be anybody,

I think Battalion Chief Perez has a nice ring to it.

It does.

It's the good news

I don't think 42 realized it needed right now.

- Mm. - Really.

Was that it?

- You kind of seem... - Oh, when's the last time you've been by the house?

Why?

'Cause you're my son, that's why.

Um, too long. Manny's been there hogging the couch.

Yes, he has. You want to have dinner tonight?

I mean, it's just gonna be takeout,

but I can put it on fancy plates.

- Copy, Chief. - Okay.

You didn't tell him?

Where is the coffee?

Sharon, you didn't tell Bode that the ATF thinks that

Edgewater was set on fire by a "who" and not a "what"?

It's a giant, red tub.

It's usually right there.

- Chief... - And Jake and Bode just went shopping.

They could not have forgotten Leone Mud.

'Cause I took it off the list.

What?

Some of the guys said they want to try a different brew.

I thought, hey, why not Guatemalan beans?

It's your station.

And I can see now that that offends you.

I'm-I'm-I'm sorry, Sharon,

but you, you're the one who told me to...

make the station my own, so I thought coffee

- was a great jumping-off point. - It's not just coffee.

Leone Mud is a multi-generational tradition.

I-It has always been here.

Do-do you just want to run a station with no tradition?

Wow.

You know what?

I'll put it back on the list.

Okay?

Today is about good news.

It's-it's about your good news.

Yeah, but it's also

a big transition day for you.

- And for Bode... - Bode is solid,

and I feel more hopeful for 42 than I have

in a lot of hopeless months.

So please don't ask me to spoil it

by upsetting my son about an ATF investigation.

And I will try not to ruin it

over coffee beans. Okay?

Okay.

Can I say one thing?

Uh... an arsonist set Edgewater on fire,

and they're still out there.

And it's only a matter of time before Bode finds out.

Wouldn't it be better coming from you?

Mm.

Okay.

What's up?

I found another one.

Man, did these chickens

just learn how to pick locks?

Come here, Bridget.

Uh, speaking of picking locks...

Oh, right. How'd the heist go, Danny Ocean?

Did y'all actually find something?

Uh, yeah, a key.

And get this, it's linked to a covert mailbox of Vince's.

Well, that's sus. Hey, hey, hey. I just... made that.

Look, and-and B, he's looking for any answer

other than the obvious,

but the man was hiding an extortion letter

and had a covert mailbox.

I mean, kind of paints a picture.

Yeah, well, did you tell him?

We just got back on speaking terms.

Okay. Well...

You want to be tight with him again, yeah?

Well, then, you got to learn how to be honest.

I don't see you telling him anything.

Mm-hmm. No, you're right about that.

Oh, you, um, you have a little something on your chest.

Yup. No, it's right here.

Oh!

Okay. Okay.

It's my honor to bestow upon you

the rank of battalion chief.

This pin symbolizes your leadership

here at our beloved 42.

Yeah.

- Well, it's not too late to change your mind. - Mm.

No, no.

There we go.

Wow.

Whew. Man...

It has been a wild ride

for me and firefighting.

But, uh, through all the ups and downs,

42 has always been a home.

It's been our home.

And loyalty

is what we're all about here.

You know, we committed our lives to fire service,

but also to each other.

And, uh...

I wouldn't be here without each and every one of you.

And I'm humbled

and grateful.

But most of all,

I'm ready to get to work

'cause this is the greatest job in the world, am I right?

All right, y'all, let's take a photo.

I know Gabs is gonna want to see this.

All right, get in tight. Act like you love each other.

Here we go.

- All right, now flip that. - I don't know how to flip it.

- Hold on. Here we go. - Come on. Stop it. Let's go.

Selfie time.

- Hey. - Battalion chief.

Cute, y'all. Amazing. Oh.

- Thank you. - Parmesan. Parmesan.

Par-Parmesan, come here. No, Parmesan,

come here. No, wait. No.

Parmesan, come here.

Eve, Eve, I got her.

Come here. Oh, what are you...?

- Parmesan, come on. - No, Parmesan.

Parmesan. Parmesan, come.

I got her.

- Pull him out. Get him out. - Come on.

Okay, that's good.

Seriously?

Chickens now?

What? I just run the place.

Station 42, structure fire.

Time to get this helmet dirty.

Yeah. I'll tell you what my boss said to me on my first day:

Don't screw it up.

Greencrest, Engine 1591.

We are six minutes out from Al's Drive-In Theater.

Ooh.

- You know what'd be nice? - Hmm?

If Al still serves those, uh, dollar dogs.

Mmm.

You didn't fill up on my tacos at lunch?

So, we need to have a conversation about seasoning.

Um, you're having dinner at Sharon's tonight.

May I suggest paprika?

I'm grabbing pizza from Skip's.

Skipolini's? By the post office?

I told Eve about the key.

Look, the sooner that I can prove that letter

isn't what it looks like, the sooner it goes away.

Tell him.

What?

- What? - Um...

Okay. Hey, yo, B.

Look, your dad was a good man,

- a-a great man. - Mm. Great.

- But, you know, nobody's perfect. - Mm-hmm.

- And-and... - Um, you remember, um, Principal Ressler?

He put the "pal" in principal.

And he always signed up for the, uh,

the dunk tank for the town fair.

Yeah, nobody didn't love Ressler.

Okay. All right. I got it. I-I know where you're headed.

All right? But this is different.

There was that time that we saw him getting it on with

Coach Hayes, and that man was not married to Coach Hayes.

Yeah, Ressler was a cheater.

- And a great man. - Yeah, and both can be true, man.

Can we not compare my dad to Ressler?

I'm not, I'm not saying that the letter is nothing.

But you both saw the way my dad worshipped my mom.

Look, I just think that

blackmail only works if you have something to hide.

Okay, great, got it.

You think my dad's a cheat.

Well, you're gonna feel like an ass when I prove that he wasn't.

I'm a little surprised that you wanted in on this one.

Just think of me as a resource.

Years of experience at your fingertips.

Uh, there's Jefferson.

Yeah, I'm gonna take Mountain.

But Jefferson gets us there quicker.

Al's is on the corner.

West on Mountain, then left on Apple.

That is the fastest way.

Chief Perez is just full of opinions.

All right, we'll have to go another way.

Go ahead, push 'em back, Eve.

Eve, let's do a 360.

Bode, take Hayes and Dawson

and start clearing folks out of here.

At our concession stand...

...soda and your favorite candy.

All right, let's go. Got to move.

Got to get everybody out of here right now.

Got to clear everybody out.

- This way, ma'am. - Thank you.

Goes out of here safely.

- Hey there, Bode. - Wes?

Yeah.

Guess I got to count on a fire just to see you.

You don't come around since you don't need side jobs anymore.

Hell, I got my hands full with my day job, so, you know.

Firefighting's a... it's a full-time deal.

Yeah. Yeah, I can see that.

It's about to ruin Al's western movie night. High Noon.

Best film ever.

You wanted to come out here and enjoy it alone?

You know, Mickey and Skye do not have an appreciation

for the fine work of Gary Cooper, so...

Well, not everybody's got your good taste.

- Amen to that. - Firefighter Leone,

I.C. pulling up. Report face-to-face.

Yeah, copy. Duty calls.

Go earn your paycheck. I don't want to miss my movie.

We'll do our best. Hey, stay out of trouble for me, all right?

Ah, can't make any promises.

Got to go barter for some popcorn.

All right, two-story structure fire.

First floor concession stand

with threat to the second floor projection room, Chief.

- Okay, then, 42, we're gonna... - All right, 42, we got a, uh...

As I was saying,

we got a fire on the southwest side of the premises.

We make sure that fire doesn't go beyond this structure. Copy?

Assignments, they're as follows. Jake, you're gonna...

Jake, take point on the primary interior search,

and make sure you do an extra sweep

in case there's any stragglers in there.

- Copy that. Uh, Bode, with me. - Yeah, on it, Cap.

Manny and Eve, you start the exterior attack.

Grab a line and stop the spread from the second floor.

Copy, Chief. Eve, you heard her.

- Start running that hose line. - Copy you.

- Hey, Chief. - Yeah?

Are you running I.C. or am I?

Oh, just force of habit.

- Mom. - Yeah?

Hey, uh, Wes is here.

Aunt Mickey's Wes?

I told him to stay out of trouble.

Expect him to do that? That would be cute.

That feel a little awkward to you?

Yeah, well, upside of Manny getting B.C. over me?

Don't got to deal with that.

Feeling snacky?

Visit our concession stand...

..for hot and fresh popcorn.

Oh, that's not good.

Did you call for a vent crew?

No.

Hey, Chief.

Yeah? Stay to the right.

Why is there a vent crew at my scene?

Uh, because venting the roof is our next inevitable move.

- Come on. - Yeah, I want to approach this one differently.

We don't damage the roof unless we have to.

- Mm. How's that? - Transitional attack.

Try to keep the interior temperature cool.

Venting will get you there quicker.

Right, just like you thought that, uh,

Jefferson would get us here quicker, right?

Wow. First day, Perez.

Maybe we don't need to make everything a power struggle.

B.C. still reports to D.C.

Should we give the vent crew a go-ahead, Chief, or what?

Eh, Sharon's making a lot of assumptions,

but I see a way forward. We're going transitional.

- Hey. - Copy you.

Got it.

Is that the projector?

Delta side clear.

Looks like an electrical

- point of origin in the ceiling. - Yeah.

Al must not have changed the electrical wiring in decades.

Hey, is someone here?

- Help. - Yeah, it's Cal Fire. Where are you?

The projector fell on me. I'm over here.

Bode, you're up. Check him out.

Hey. Hey, can you tell me your name?

Mac. Can you... can you get this off me, like, now?

Hey, his foot's pinned.

- Okay, I'm gonna lift it up. - All right, come on, here we go.

- Ready. - One.

Two. Three.

Hey, we use a Halligan to try and pry it a couple inches,

we can pull him out.

It's not your call, probie, but I happen to agree.

All right, let's clear debris for access.

Make it fast. The fire upstairs is growing.

What happens when Sharon finds out

you ordered a transitional attack?

It's the B.C.'s job to execute a vision.

Exactly what I'm doing.

I'll bring the popcorn to the hot wash.

- Up here. Help. - What the...

Up here.

- Help! - Is that Al?

I can't breathe. You got to get me out.

Hey, Al, you just stay calm, all right? We're coming to you.

No, man, that window's too small.

We can't do a ladder rescue.

Well, then, we go in.

Our resources are spread thin, and a man's life is at stake.

We? Wait, you want to be

an inside man on your first day in command?

D.C. Leone's not gonna go for that.

Well, then, she can take it up with the battalion chief.

All right, Eve.

With that ceiling,

we're not gonna get any smoke lift.

And once it gets oxygen...

We get a big, fat fire burger.

Exactly, but I'm gonna be right behind you to kill it,

- all right? Get some. - Copy.

Be safe.

- Ready? - Ready.

Now, that was a chief move.

Let's go, baby.

You see him?

Not yet.

I got this. You move forward.

Al. Al!

Al!

Keep your face covered.

There you go.

32 years of owning this place,

and today's the day I lose it?

We're not gonna let that happen. Let's go.

Chief Perez, what is your location?

Edwards and I are in the projection room with a patient.

Your assigned position was structure Bravo side.

Yeah, we had a surprise rescue.

In your new role... very new...

you are not supposed to be hands-on in any circumstance.

As you might say, Chief, "force of habit."

Hey, find anything to use for support?

Yeah, I'm looking.

Hey, we're gonna get you out of here, bud.

Soon, though? My parents figure out

I left my little brother in the car, they're gonna flip.

Here we go.

Parents make plenty of mistakes.

Yours will just be happy that you're okay.

Yeah, parents make mistakes.

All the time.

You ready?

Come on. Come on.

All right, Bode, on my count.

- One. Two. - Two.

Three.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We got you.

- We got you. - Hey! Right over here.

There you go.

There you go, man.

You gonna make comments all day?

It's not my fault you keep reading into everything I say.

Things a little hot under the collar?

Stress of the job.

Don't try and outfox me.

What's eating you?

Just got a little mess on my hands,

but I'm handling it.

Oh, stoic.

You know, you-you're like one of these old silver screen cowboys.

Whatever you're going after, you're going after alone.

Well, sometimes, alone's the only option.

Yeah, well...

You don't forget Wes Fox has got your back.

The structure fire is contained.

You defied my orders.

I called an audible, Sharon.

And as a leader, I have to trust my instincts.

You've been trying to get around me all day long.

I have not.

Come on, Sharon, you supported me getting this job,

why the hell won't you just let me do it?

Because your instinct is to reverse

everything 42 has always done.

One decision. I made one decision, Sharon.

No, there was the coffee this morning, too.

You're still on the coffee?

And you're driving his truck around like it's yours.

His truck?

Yeah, and that helmet,

like he never even existed, Manny.

This is like death by 1,000 paper cuts.

Yes, I am terrified.

The ATF and telling my son

about something that's gonna unleash an anger in him

that I have no control over.

I'm scared, too, but you have to tell Bode.

- I... - Tell me what?

You two are at each other's throats over what?

Whatever it is, I can handle it.

It's your mom's call.

I spoke out of turn.

We got a rapid spread on the roof.

Embers are flying.

42, hoses.

Okay, if the fire

spreads to the trees...

- We're screwed. I agree. - What's the call?

Your orders, Chief.

All right. You two,

control the structure fire.

You two on hoses. Attack the spot fires.

- Let's go. Go, go, go, go. - Copy that. On it.

Hey, you guys make sure

that fire doesn't get to the trees.

All right, spot fires keep popping up.

What we really need is a hand crew

to attack it before it hits this vegetation.

Yeah, but with what manpower?

Who we really need is

- Three Rock. - Three Rock.

Chief, evac's clogged

with vehicles.

You still behind me? 'Cause I got a kind of wild idea.

How wild?

All right, Al. Your lungs sound great.

Just don't go running a marathon in the next few days.

How about a movie marathon?

I'm, um, I'm sorry about your projector, too.

Um, I know it'll be a while before you show some movies.

Well, you know, if, uh, tickets and concession

- were my only source of income... - Mm-hmm?

...I'd have been out of business years back.

- Yeah? - Yeah. I mean,

drive-in's night work. You got to think bigger.

I mean, I've rented this place out for flea markets

and church things.

- I mean, we even had a wedding here once. - Mm.

Multiple revenue streams, okay?

- Think bigger. - Mm.

Edwards, do you still have Al

in the ambulance?

Affirmative, Chief.

Al, the radio frequency that you use

to play the movie audio in the cars,

do you have an emergency transmitter?

Yeah, sure we do. It's-it's in the, in the ticket booth.

The picture's down,

but the-the, uh, transmitter should still be up.

Okay, what's the frequency?

106.7 FM.

- Okay, thank you. - Um...

Okay.

Good evening, movie-goers.

This is Cal Fire Division Chief Sharon Leone,

and I know this isn't the movie night you had in mind,

but if there are any volunteers who would like to help save

Edgewater's favorite drive-in,

would you meet us by the woods on the west side?

Thank you.

Always thought you had a voice for radio.

Good, good, good.

Hey, I got another one right here.

On it. Bode, behind you.

Good, Leone. Stay on it.

Do you know what's up with my mom and Manny?

Well, she wanted vertical ventilation,

- he went transitional. - No, no, something different.

Manny said that my mom's hiding something from me.

I-I-I-I can't with the irony of that.

Bode, you are hiding the letter from her.

- You got opinions on that now? - Well, to be honest,

- he's always had opinions on it. - No, no. You know what?

You can hate me all over again for it,

but I'm tired of keeping my opinions to myself.

Tell your mom about the letter.

- But... - No. Tell her.

As a matter of fact, tell her now.

God, it felt good saying that out loud.

I'm with him.

I hope we get some takers.

Oh, we do, we do.

Oh, yes.

Thank you so much.

Please grab a tool from Chief Perez.

Wes Fox, is that you angling to hold a Pulaski?

Boss me around, Firecracker.

All right, I need everybody

to get a handle on starts and spots.

I-I don't follow, Share.

Fire starts and spot fires. Anything that's smoking,

- throw some dirt on it, stamp it out. - Like gardening.

In hell.

Guys...

Bode, drag a hose over there now.

Embers are flying.

If that whole screen goes up,

so does the forest.

It's not enough, y'all.

All right.

What if we pull it to the ground?

Forward, away from those trees.

Yeah, I like it, but our rescue chains won't reach.

We got something that will.

Hey, whoa.

Hey. Don't you stop hitting that.

Hey, I'll hop in the cab.

All right, let's go.

Thank you. You're doing a great job.

I got to say, it's really something

watching you run things, Firecracker.

Yeah, but I don't run the show. Not this one, anyway.

Well... Well, from the cheap seats,

somebody wants to do those big jobs, you let 'em.

Hey, Wes Fox.

That's a spot fire. What do you do to it?

Aye, aye.

Ooh, look at him. He's a natural.

I know my way around a disaster.

Chiefs, the screen's about to go,

so we're rolling with it, pulling it away from

the forest line.

Copy, Crawford. We'll support.

Come on.

Yup. Keep going.

Come on, Jake, open it up.

Back up, folks. Folks, back up, please. Come on.

Please step back. That's it. That's it.

They did it.

I know what you're gonna say.

Trouble just seems to find me. I don't go looking for it.

What about the kind of trouble

that includes threatening letters?

You mean blackmail?

My dad, um...

...got himself into some hot water.

Someone threatened to blow up his life.

Oh, these kids these days.

Can't they come up with a more original threat?

You want to know what your next move is?

My buddy thinks I should tell my mom.

Your buddy's right.

You're nuts if you think you can keep a secret from that woman.

Ah. What's the holdup?

I mean, she's... she's been through enough.

I don't want to pile on more.

What, you think Sharon Leone can't handle

a piece of paper? After everything she's been through?

Try her.

What about the threats?

You don't wait. Somebody's coming for you?

Open the front door. You play offense, not defense.

But play with your whole team,

which includes Sharon.

Probably right.

I'm always right.

Could you please remind my daughter of that?

Oh. Uh, that whole team also includes that buddy.

Good ones tell you what you don't want to hear.

Hey, Chief.

I bulldozed your first day as battalion chief.

It was unprofessional, and I'm sorry.

Eh. Don't worry about it.

You're division chief.

You're supposed to do that.

Yeah.

I'm sorry, too.

But, damn, did we pull one out in the end, or what?

- Yes, we did. We did. - Yeah, we did that.

You're a terrific leader, Manny,

but you're also the face of change, and...

Change is a bitch.

You said it, not me.

That doesn't smell like Leone Mud to me.

No. I figured I should try the new stuff, you know,

which is my way of saying I heard you.

Yeah?

So does that mean you're telling Bode?

I am.

Good.

And what about the coffee?

Do you hate it?

I do.

You cannot be right about everything.

Happy first day, Manny. We're lucky to have you.

I'm lucky to have the Leones.

Did you find anything in the P.O. Box?

I didn't go.

Doesn't matter what's inside.

You were right.

You know, my dad wasn't perfect.

He was no stranger to secrets, that's been true.

Hmm.

And this letter was just the latest one.

B, I loved the man, but...

...boy, did he leave behind some kind of mess.

Yeah.

With him gone, we can't let that mess destroy us.

No.

I mean, I-I didn't let the pills do it.

Hey, I sure as hell didn't let losing battalion chief do it.

This letter won't do it.

But it's no good going at it alone.

I want you on my team.

Even if that means I'm telling you something

you don't want to hear?

I'm-a try and do the same.

Starting with my mom.

Good.

Well, wish me luck.

- You gonna need it. - Yeah, hey.

Unpack the rest of this box while I'm gone,

if you don't mind.

♪ Back lost time... ♪

Yeah. I do mind.

So, I noticed that you moved Bridget and her girls.

That sucks

'cause I was just starting to like their squawking.

It's funny you should say that.

They're-they're not going too far.

I think I found a new home for them at Three Rock.

- Oh, for real? - Yeah, I was, like, running the numbers,

and if Three Rock has their own chicken eggs,

budget gets cut by, like, 20K.

Wha...

Wow. Those must be golden eggs.

You could taste for yourself.

All right.

Wow, it looks amazing.

Let's see...

Mmm.

Holy mama. That's what farm fresh eggs taste like?

Mm-hmm. Okay, so this is what I'm thinking,

if Three Rock raises its own chickens,

harvests its own eggs, and grows its own crops...

Then the boys can feed themselves. That's smart.

- I like it. - Yeah, no, but think bigger.

The boys could turn a profit,

and then, I don't know, pour it back into the camp.

Damn, look at us. Day one on the job,

we already solved Three Rock.

Well, you know,

we'll see what the city council says

and DOC, and also, um...

We?

Well, I didn't get a chance to tell you, but

I've applied for a few wildfire prevention grants.

And if we get one,

then that's just more bread for our boys.

Well, well, well, well.

Mr. New Battalion Chief has had a big day today.

Just getting started.

They gave us the pizza on the house.

Apparently, everyone loves Al's Drive-In.

That's so sweet.

Hawaiian.

Three plates, Mom?

- I got it. I got it. I got it. - No, no.

No, no. I'm sorry.

I just miss him so much.

Me, too.

- Mom, there's something... - Yeah,

there is, about today. I know.

I've been... It's something I'm afraid to tell you

'cause it's really hard for me to...

say, so it's gonna be hard for you to hear.

Well, whatever it is...

...I won't break.

The ATF believes that someone

set the Zabel Ridge fire.

Everything about it points to arson.

They have an origination point.

They... have some evidence

that they're not willing to share yet,

but that they would tell me anything if they were 100% sure

that the person who caused the fire...

Bode, can you say something?

Someone deliberately lit this town up.

They're still out there.

We got to do something.

You cannot go vigilante on this.

No, I mean...

I want to help with 42 if we can.

Okay, I-I can talk to investigators, but...

could we just sit in the-the feelings

it brings up for a second?

I've been sitting with something else.

I tried finding an explanation, but I couldn't.

It was in Dad's guitar case.

It's in a woman's handwriting.

It's... threats.

I don't want to jump to conclusions, but...

"I will blow up your life"?

Mom, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry, Mom.

Uh...

- Uh, I cannot believe this. - Well, I couldn't either.

Oh, Bode, honey, it's not an affair.

The fact that she would extort your father for money,

and that he would get into this position with her.

Wait, you know her?

So do you.

She's my mother.
