Previously on Sheriff Country. There's a
company called Emerald Eden. They've

been snatching up the best cannabis
producing land in Edgewater. And they're

using hardball tactics to get it. Dale!
Dale!

Congratulations, Mr. Ford. Your clients
continue terrorizing the residents of

this county. I have no idea what you're
talking about. You need to calm down.

Who is behind Emerald Eden? You want us
to do you like we did that grower? Maybe

this isn't a good idea.

I know you like her, so stop pretending.
Tell her how you feel.

Hey, Mickey.

Nothing. I mean, Alec. Alec and I had a
thing back when he was an undercover

agent. The DEA is making a claim on the
three million you confiscated. You can't

just walk in here and take it. I'm
afraid I just did, Mickey. Our three

will be leaving the sheriff's office
tomorrow in an armored truck. So what's

plan? Someone stole that $39.

This town has no idea what's coming.

Long time since me and you've been up
here. Yeah. What do you think, Skye?

cold.

You used to bring your mom up here
fishing when she was yay high.

First time, she was four, maybe.

She caught a rainbow trout. We're not
there.

It's half as big as she was.

As soon as the thing comes out of the
water, she starts screaming, throw it

back! Daddy, throw it back!

So I grabbed the fish, which was not a
happy fish, by the way.

And I try to take the hook out. Well,
your mom, she starts flailing, and she

sets the hook. She set it right through
my thumb.

I'm bleeding worse than a fish, and I
got my thumb down its gullet. It's going

crazy. And your grandmother jumps down,
and she snipped the line. She threw the

trout back in the water, and she scooped
your mom up in a big old hug.

Your grandmother was one hell of a
woman.

I see her every time I look at the two
of you.

You're feeling awfully sentimental
today.

You know, after Brandon died, I felt so
alone. But now I realize I

was never really alone.

The two of you and Dad were always there
for me.

I love you, honey.

I love you.

And I love you, Dad, more than you know.

He's flying really low, isn't he?

They're walking towards us.

They're heading towards Deadwater.

Breach and clear. Breach and clear.
Move, move, move.

Put your hands up against the wall! Put
your

hands up!

Don't resist!

You told you won't get hurt. Show me
your hands. What the hell are you doing?

We're legal guards. We have permits.

Move. I'm okay, bitch.

That's not fine.

That's not fine.

Please.

You're hurting my arm. Please.

The federal government needs body armor
for soccer moms now?

Well, maybe if you'd done your job in
the first place, Deputy, we wouldn't

to be here.

What did you just say to me? You have an
interstate drug cartel operating under

your nose.

This whole department has been way too
friendly with these people.

You need to choose your next few words
real carefully.

Boone.

Agent Kane, my office.

You said you wanted an interrogation
room, not half the damn station.

You need choppers and Humvees to bring
in farmers now? They stopped being

farmers the second they stole $3 million
of DEA money in broad daylight.

You familiar with Joanne Henshaw? Sure.
Mama Jo. She's one of the OG growers.

Lives on the mountains. Joanne Henshaw
is the mastermind of a criminal cartel

operating right here in Edgewater. We're
still piecing it together, but six

months ago, Henshaw used her influence
over Edgewater growers to form a so

-called co -op. It's really just a
homegrown cannabis cartel. The money you

recovered in the woods, that $3 million?

The money you took from my department.

It's cartel money.

The proceeds of an interstate drug deal
brokered by Mama Jo and her cartel

counterparts. with some dealers out of
Colorado.

We took these two days ago outside of
Mama Jo's cabin. That is Tanner Cook,

years in prison on federal weapons
charges.

Martin Brownie Ball, who's been in and
out of your county jails for half his

life. And Luna Miller. A legal grower.
Who just this year was involved in a

shootout on the open road. She was
robbed, Alec, trying to pay her taxes.

Growing weed in California is not a
crime. We're not charging them in

California, Mickey.

The second that they sent drugs across
state line, it became the DEA's problem.

Walk me through this.

My contacts in Colorado gave me two
names, Dale Hawkins and Tanner Cook. My

agents are with Dale in the hospital
now. He's not talking. So we put our

on Tanner. We surveilled him outside of
Mama Jo's cabin in Deadwater, and as you

can see, they were not alone.

This morning, we served a search warrant
on Mama Jo's cabin and several other

locations. We recovered a portion of the
stolen money buried 10 feet outside of

Brownie's front door.

And Mama Jo?

By the time we got to her cabin, she was
gone.

Looks like she's on the run.

I'll put out a bolo.

We just got a call. Building manager
requesting a welfare check.

Can you handle it? I'm in the middle of
this. The address belongs to Lyman Ford.

The lawyer for Emerald Eden?

Let's go.

Who's Lyman Ford?

Somebody who's been intimidating local
growers, trying to get them to sell

land.

Ford is the lawyer who papered the deal.

The Federal Drug Enforcement
Administration has carried... out a

dramatic early morning raids across
Edgewater County.

No statement has been issued, but we're
told that several arrests have been made

in a sweep reminiscent of the so -called
camp or campaign against marijuana

planting. Raids of the 1990s.

What the

hell's

going on out there?

Not smart to come here, Joe.

It would have been dumber to call.

I got the warning when I heard the DEA
was moving up the mountain.

Threw my dogs in the truck, hauled ass
out the back.

Tried to warn the others, but it's too
late.

They got Brownie, Tanner, and Luna.

They got Luna?

Someone must have talked.

Who? I don't know. Dale?

No, no, it couldn't have been Dale. No.

Well, it doesn't matter anyway. It's
only a matter of time before your name

comes up. It's time to get the hell out
of Dodge, old man.

I got a cousin in Alaska you can come
with.

Two sets of eyes on the road are better
than one. And it's easy enough to cut

into Canada on ResLand, but we gotta
leave now.

I can't just leave.

You can't stay.

They put you in this time? The way you
pop those heart pills, old as we are?

ain't never getting out. I got a truck
packed.

Now grab a bag. Let's go.

Okay.

You go.

What? I have things to take care of. A
couple hours.

I'll be two hours behind you.

I'll meet you.

I'll see you soon.

My manager says no one's seen Ford since
Friday.

They've been requesting him for being
involved in the land -grab campaign.

Oh.

Edgewater County Sheriff's Office.

Lyman Ford?

He was spooked. Maybe he left home.

Sheriff Mickey Fox, Mr. Ford, are you at
home?

Sheriff's office.

Clear. Clear.

Nothing is locked, nothing password
protected yet, not a single file

Emerald Eden LLC.

So Ford was buying up property for these
guys for like six months, but their

names aren't anywhere on his computer.

Or in his filing cabinet.

The building manager said Ford worked
from home. So the files should be there.

Maybe Ford scrubbed his files for some
reason.

Yeah, but why go to all the trouble if
you're just going to off your soul?

Maybe someone else scrubbed them, like
Emerald Eden, trying to tie up loose

ends.

Ford's not the only person that works
for Emerald Eden that we know about.

Frank Stokes.

Guy we arrested for intimidating
growers.

He's still sitting in jail for assault.
Why don't you guys go pay him a visit?

Now that he's got a dead accomplice, he
might be more cooperative.

And get a rush on the autopsy. Emerald
Eden's been terrorizing Edgewater for

months. I have a feeling they just
graduated to murder.

What are you getting into? I'm going to
go to the EXO and make sure these DA

guys aren't getting too cozy.

I seem pretty cozy to me.

Dismissed.

Good.

Didn't learn your lesson from last time,
old man.

I'm not here for a rematch. I'm here to
do business.

You better stop talking before I lose my
patience.

Not with you, Joey.

Him.

You know who I am.

And you're going to know this is not
easy for me to say.

I'm liquidating.

Everything goes.

My acreage, my trucks, my strain, all of
it.

But I need the money now.

There's not going to be no haggling.

I need money that's clean and I need it
today.

I'm leaving Edgewater.

And I won't be coming back.

And we're really fucked heavy in such a
hurry.

Today.

Where's Joanne Henshaw?

Never heard of her.

I've got some bad news for you. We
already found the money, Brownie.

You buried it right outside your front
door, dummy.

I'm a legal grower. I have permits. I
pay taxes. Mickey knows me. Everybody

knows Sheriff Falken. That's not going
to save you from having to watch your

kids grow up from behind bars.

How much of...

Their life do you think you're going to
miss?

I'm just curious.

What kind of permits do you need for
felony armed robbery?

My sources tell me that you're the real
mastermind behind the Colorado deal. So

why let Dale and Mama Jo take all the
credit?

Mama who?

You get it. It doesn't matter that weed
is legal in California. This is a

federal investigation.

We are talking hard time. There is one
deal on the table today. And the first

person to give me Mama Jo Henshaw.

Gets it.

Where

is

she? I need to speak to my wife. Her
name's Luna Miller.

Jay. This is all just a big
misunderstanding.

Thank God.

Do you know where Luna is? The DEA won't
tell me anything. She's here. They're

holding her for questioning.

This doesn't make any sense. Luna, a
cartel? I don't understand.

Maya, right?

Do you remember me?

Yeah.

Are you guys hungry?

There you go.

Let me know if you want more.

I'm not going to lie to you, Jay. These
are serious allegations.

Mickey, it's Luna. She's not a criminal.
She's a mom.

Just make sure the girls keep... I'll
let you know what I hear. Mickey.

No one's talking.

Did you match the serial numbers on
Johnny's bill to the stolen drug money?

It's in progress.

In progress?

Alec, what exactly do you have on these
guys?

How about cultivation, possession, and
distribution of a Schedule I controlled

substance? Luna has kids, Alec.

Do you think this is how I'm going to be
spending my time?

Mickey, my ass is on the line. I was
agent in charge when $3 million got

It was all I could do to keep my boss
from riding into town and running this

investigation.

And Deputy Director Santos, this is not
a woman you want to mess with.

So, you want to get the DEA out of
Edgewater? You want us to pack up and go

home? Help me find Mama Jo Henshaw. You
want to help Luna?

Convince her to make a deal.

Help me, Mickey.

And let's put this thing to bed.

I don't know anything.

Jay and the girls are here.

How are they doing?

Scared.

Confused.

They're strong.

You know, I used to love making pancakes
with my mom.

So easy, but they always just turned out
so good.

Her secret ingredient, vanilla.

Half a teaspoon.

One day we were in the kitchen and,
um...

I just finished measuring it out, and I
hear this bang, and

I look over.

I can see into the front yard, and the
soldier has his knee on my father's

back.

I was so little.

Barely six years old.

I can still hear the helicopter.

And my father screaming, Maria, let her
go. She doesn't know anything.

But they took my mom, too.

I spent the night on a social worker's
couch.

Both my parents were in jail.

And you know what that social worker
said to me?

It's okay, honey.

You're strong.

I never saw my mom again.

She contracted viral pneumonia awaiting
trial and she

died in Edgewater County Jail.

I still think of her every time I go in
there.

It's Luna.

The choice that you make today will
affect them for the rest of their lives.

DEA thinks that Mama Jo is behind this.
I don't know.

We have to find her and talk to her.

If you tell me what you know, I promise
I will do everything I can to make sure

you go home to your family.

I think I should talk to a lawyer.

Stokes didn't talk the first time we
questioned him. What makes you think

going to talk now? Lyman Ford is dead
maybe because he knew too much about

Emily. If I'm Stokes, I'd be worried I'm
next.

What is this?

My sergeant said he wanted to see Frank
Stokes.

Here's Frank Stokes.

When the hell did this happen? A couple
hours ago.

I've been out in the yard, but nobody's
talking.

Least of all, Frank Stokes or Lyman
Ford.

At the rate these guys are dropping, we
are never going to get to the truth.

Lineman Ford was making buyout offers
for Emerald Eden LLC.

He was the last one to talk to Dale
Hawkins before Frank Stokes beat Dale

coma. But when Dale woke up, he told us
there were two guys who beat him up.

Right. So, who was Stokes' mystery
buddy?

Stokes was in the Death Merchants,
right? Yeah. So what does a motorcycle

known for dealing in meth want with the
best weed land in Edgewater? Good

question. Maybe we should get the DEA
guys to take. Who, Alec Kane?

Yeah. He was undercover with them,
right? Yeah, whole scumbag rodeo.

So?

Maybe he's got some insight.

When I want to turn a traffic stop in
World War III, I'll give Al Kane a call.

Until then, how about we do some actual
police work?

Any ideas?

Always.

Oh.

How is that chili burger?

Not bad.

You mind? I haven't eaten in all day.

Mac, help me out with something, man.
Lyman Ford.

Never seen him.

No?

Tough break.

All right, well, you're someone I know
you do know.

Frank Stokes, member of your crew.

Now, look, we know that Lyman Ford was
making land offers for Admiralty and

and we know that Stokes and a partner of
his were roughing up anyone who

refused. Hey, Amber.

You want to get me the check?

Mmm.

Way too much salt.

You know what I think back? I think
whoever's behind Emerald Eden is getting

of any of the people who are doing their
dirty work. Making sure that they

cannot talk. If I was Stokes' partner,
I'd stop wondering.

Am I not?

Is there anything else?

It told us nothing.

It told us one thing.

That's not a guy who's worried about
being tied up as a loose end. That's the

guy who's doing the tying.

Couldn't meet me inside?

I just... Fresh air, so... And the
ginger ale you asked for. What was

that for?

You. You're being so sweet.

Don't start spreading that rumor.

Wes, what is going on?

I need to disappear for a little while.
Why?

Did something happen?

I spoke to Amber, and she's going to see
to it that you get back and forth.

She'll take care of it.

Oh, Wes.

What did you get yourself into?

You have a sec?

Yeah.

I had no idea.

That story that you told Luna about your
parents getting arrested.

I'm so sorry, Mickey.

It's not something I like talking about.

I know this must be hard for you, all of
this, but this isn't the camp raids.

We're not talking about farmers with a
few rows of pot plants. We're chasing

criminals. This co -op or grow -up or
whatever you want to call it.

This operation has scale.

I know. I know.

It's just hard seeing people like Luna
facing jail time.

It's like there's this edgewater that
was this town that I want this place to

and the edgewater that is.

And they're like two trains moving in
opposite directions and I'm in the

trying to hold them together or keep
from being torn apart.

Can you excuse me? I'll be right back.

Dad.

Mickey.

Everything okay?

Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's up? You heard
about Mama Jo and Luna?

Yeah.

Thank you for going legal.

That could have been you, Dad.

That could have been you all over again.

Lieutenant Boone.

Emmy. Emmy. That's all you have to say
for yourself.

Oh, Nathan didn't tell you.

He has a thing for making karaoke dates
with good -looking medical examiners. He

meets on law enforcement dating apps and
then canceling at the last minute.

I deal with lots of dead guys, but this
is my first ghost.

I have yet to complete a full autopsy,
but...

Given the nature of the crime and the
importance of communication and a

relationship, I'm happy to share my
preliminary findings.

This man did not commit suicide. Based
on arterial bruising, he was strangled

death before he was hung from the
ceiling fan.

Look how clean both abrasion lines are.
No signs of a struggle here, but... See

here? I extracted skin from underneath
the fingernails. He clearly put up a

fight. My guess is that he was knocked
unconscious before he was strangled.

I'm still waiting on x -rays to come
back, but I bet you I find some cranial

hemorrhaging.

Oh.

Huh. What is this?

Hand me those clippers.

Yep. The blast. Yep.

D -M -M -C?

Death Merchant's Motorcycle Club.

Same as the knuckle duster Mack McGuire
was wearing at the meetup.

Okay.

Call Judge Pete. Tell him that we want
to charge Mack McGuire in connection

the murder of Lyman Ford. I'm texting
you this photo. Make sure you attach it

the application for the warrant. I will
be sure to communicate that.

Uh... Emmy, I'm so sorry. I should have
called.

Whoever she was, the reason you
canceled.

I hope she was worth it.

We are all hands on deck until we find
Mack McGuire.

Thank you.

Just going to you.

I got a conference call with my deputy
director.

Make a track of his award. We might just
need a table clear. Make yourself at

home, why don't you?

No need for the tone, deputy. I'm just
doing my job. Your job? You're a

to your job.

Are we going to have a problem?

No.

As long as you stay out of my way.

What, you got something to say? Say it.

What are you going to do? Do something.

Hey, hey.

Hey, what the hell's going on?

What the hell was your problem?

I had him, Mick. I had our guy. Who?

Matt McGuire. The leader of the Death
Merchants Motorcycle Club is the guy who

killed Lyman Ford. I had a warrant from
Judge Pete. Okay, amazing. So what's the

issue? Hank.

went to arrest McGuire, and he's gone.
It looks like he ran. And I'm telling

you, Mick, I had him, like, not three
hours ago. I'm sitting across from him

the meetup. I should have put a tail on
him. All right, all right. Cut yourself

some slack, okay? We'll find McGuire.

You really think he's behind Emerald
Eden? Maybe not behind it, but an

yeah.

I'm gonna go ask Alec. No, no, no, no.
No way.

He was undercover with the death
merchants. He probably met McGuire. He

offer us some insight.

The faster that Alec Kane is out of his
XO, the better off that we will all be.

Hank and I will go find McGuire.

What is your problem with Alec, Boone?

My problem with... I'll tell you what my
problem with Alec is.

The DEA is terrorizing Edgewater, and
we're just sitting around watching.

That guy does everything that's wrong
with policing, and you used to know

Hang on.

Do I love the helicopters and the
militaristic BS? Of course not.

Everything that's wrong with policing,
that's a stretch, and you know it. So

what is your actual problem?

I just told you. No, you didn't. I'm not
going to let you stand there and lie to

me. I know you too well for that. There
is a killer on the loose, and you won't

turn to the one guy who could help us?

I don't have time for this, Mick.

Do not turn your back on me.

This isn't about police tactics, and
it's not about manners. This is about

something more personal, and you know
it. So I'm going to ask you one more

What is your problem with Alex? I'm
crazy about you, Mick, okay?

I've been crazy about you. You have to
see that.

I think I'm in love with you.

Boone, I... It's okay. You don't feel
the same way. Hey, no, I... It's fine.

don't have to say anything.

I love you.

You're my family.

You'll always be my family.

That's all it's ever going to be.

I have to go away for a while.

I've really messed up now.

I'm going to need you to look after
Mickey and Skye.

I wish you were here to tuck me out of
this.

Agent King.

Sorry. I was upset about a case.

Forget about it.

We both got a lot going on.

This case you're working, Mickey said
the death merchants were involved?

I'm looking for Mack McGuire. I knew him
when I was there. Not a man to be

messed with.

If McGuire needs somewhere to lie low.
There was a safe house the death

merchants used to use.

It was up near Salt Valley. It's on a
ridge so they could see anyone

approaching. I'll send you a pin.

Appreciate it.

Yeah. Hey, we're on the same team,
right?

Yeah.

Oh,

Boone, if you're going out to Matt
McGuire, go arm for bear.

The death merchants are dangerous.

Our target is Matt McGuire. He is also
our best lead on whoever is behind

Emerald Eden LLC, so we have to take him
alive. Everybody, lock it up.

We're out.

and running.

Stay with the glaciers.

Hold

the

house. Hold the house. Lieutenant, he's
not breathing.

No, no, no.

All right, come on, Hank. Talk to me,
man.

Hank, talk to me.

Talk to me.

Oh, geez.

Hey, let's call an ambulance. We got
broken ribs.

Call an ambulance. You're laughing.
You're making it worse. Stop moving.

You look cool.

No, not at all.

Grandpa?

I'm home.

Grandpa? In here, hon.

Oh, Dad.

What are you doing here?

Ah.

Your grandpa called me.

He has something he needs to tell you.
We need to talk, hon.

Take a seat.

I've been putting the pieces together on
how the co -op stole the DEA's $3

million. I put in a call to the sheriff
in Drake County where it happened. He

just got back to me.

And? The robber staged a construction
hole. That's how they got the armored

truck to stop.

I asked the sheriff to send me all the
traffic cam footage he had. He just sent

me this.

That's Luna.

That's our patch. That's the Edgewater
County Sheriff's uniform.

It's not just any uniform, Mickey. Look
at the stars on Luna's collar.

Where'd you get the uniform?

Where did you get my uniform?

Where? Mickey.

Like you don't know?

Some mistakes in my... I've made a lot
of mistakes in my life.

I don't regret them, though.

All of them have led me right back here,
into your life.

You don't get no better than that.

Grandpa, what's going on?

I'm going away for a while.

What do you mean?

Where are you going?

Dad?

Your dad helped me. He drew up a trust.

I, uh...

I sold most of my land. The money is
clean. It's enough for you to do

you want to do in this world. At least
it'll get you started.

I don't want your money. Where are you
going?

The place that we went this morning,
where we went hiking.

It's the first land I ever owned.

I bought it when I moved to Edgewater.

But it's clean. They can't touch it. Who
can't touch it? That land and that

money, it's all yours. Who can't touch
it?

Fox or Fraley, you're the best of them.

We all make mistakes.

But don't you ever be ashamed of the
mistakes that you've made because all of

those mistakes, they led you right back
here into my life.

Forget something, Dad?

I think you left us at the dry cleaners.

This whole time?

This whole time?

What's going on? Mickey, why don't you
have a seat? I just thought I was doing

what was best.

Don't!

Don't! You dare!

Best for who?

Me. I was doing what was best for me.

Like I always do.

I did it.

I formed a co -op. I stole the DEA
money.

Luna and Mama Jo, they didn't do
nothing. I thought I was doing best for

people.

I

lied to

myself.

Same as I lied to you.

You girls are the greatest gift this
life's ever given me.

You deserve better than me.

Honey, I'm really... I am sorry.

Mick, Wes called me this morning. He's
ready to turn himself in. He knows he

to face the consequences for what he
did.

Mom.

Please, say something.

Fox, you have the right to remain
silent.

Anything you do, Cannon, will be used
against you in a court of law. No, Mom,

don't. Grandpa, please.

No.

Oh, my, my, every light has to die.

Every song that we sing has to end.

I'm out with a lantern looking for
myself tonight All the

things that we do to survive

Lord knows we try

It was my dad.

It was my dad.

He was behind the call the whole time
and I didn't see it.

I'm so blind. I'm so blind.

I'm so blind.

Hey. I heard about what?

I know what you must be feeling, and,
uh... Is there anything I can do?

No, thanks.

Couple broken ribs?

Keeping him for observation.

What happened out there at the safe
house?

Suicide by cop.

McGuire opened fire as soon as we got
into range.

His knuckle dusters matched the bruising
on Lyman Ford's skull. He had an

outgoing call on his cell phone to the
county jail two hours before Frank

was stabbed to death. He was our guy.
Now he's dead.

And we don't know who he works for.

But we will.

I will not rest until we find this son
of a bitch.

Good.

Neither will I.

Excuse me. Can I help you?

Mickey, I'd like for you to meet my
boss.

Deputy Director Eva Santos.

How do you do, Sheriff Fox?

It's very nice to meet you.

Agent Kane speaks very highly of you. He
speaks very highly of you, too. If only

everything I heard about you were so
positive.

I'm sorry?

Don't look so surprised, Sheriff Fox.
Surely you can guess why I'm here.

Actually, I can't. Your father.

A twice -convicted federal offender just
confessed to running a criminal cartel

and stealing millions of dollars from
the government all while living under

roof. And he used your uniform in
commission of the latter crime. I had no

Alec can tell you. Agent Kane is not
conducting this investigation.

I am.

Investigation? The Department of Justice
has asked me to conduct a comprehensive

review of the Edgewater County Sheriff's
Office to determine if your department,

and specifically you, are corrupt. Make
no mistake, if I find so much as a whiff

of impropriety, I will personally see to
it that you are removed from your

office and prosecuted to the full extent
of the law.

I suggest you get a good lawyer, Sheriff
Fox.

You're going to need one.
