Good morning, kiddos. Whoa.

That-that looks,
uh... ambitious.

Is this A

a blowtorch? Wh...

Relax, I'm supervising.

Ah! Oh...

That is a hot skillet. Ah,
hmm-hmm, ah. Yeah, it is.

And even hotter pancakes.

I put some of Mawline's
spicy jam in there.

Are they still camping?

Uh, my best guess
is they've probably

checked into the
Driskill Hotel by now.

Uh, Stella, by the way,
they wanted me to tell you

good luck. And, sweetie?

Your Laredo game, I'm

(imitating Walker)
I'm gonna try my best to make it to the game.

Yes. Clean your room. Hey,
that skirt's too short.

(imitating Stella)
Ugh. Dad!

[AUGUST]
Hey, if you can't make it to the game,

uh, I can just show it to you

when we get back from Laredo.

I'm filming it with Ruby. Ruby?

This the same Ruby that told you

to crash my undercover operation?

She didn't tell me to.

So, anyways,

we are supposed to be filming
the dance next Friday.

But I'm, uh, I'm thinking
about asking her to go.

Yeah?

You don't think she'll say yes?

I think that is a tricky question.

Can we talk about something simpler?

Like gun control?

Or Dad's DPS hearing?

Wow. Very funny.
You're out of luck on that one.

It was postponed.

Uh, which I do have to check on.

Uh, Augie... be careful.

All right.

Stella, sweetie,
you'll be great.

Okay. I'll see y'all soon.

God,
you weird-smile when you text him.

No, I don't.

(scoffs)
Shut up.

(knocking)

Hey.
(Laughs) Yep. Trey.

What, you hurt your hand again? Nah.

Good to see you, man.

Good to see you, too. Ow. Yeah.

No, don't even tell me.

You actually did hurt it?

You're a little too committed
to this bit, my man.

Okay, it's not a bit. I-I
burnt it at breakfast.

But... by the way, aren't
you supposed to be driving

my kids to Laredo, Coach?

Yeah, yeah.
I'm-I'm heading out right now.

You, uh,
you checking in on Micki?

Yeah. Uh... How's she doing?
I don't know.

How would you feel if
your mom got arrested

on her way to do a psych
eval on your partner

for their anger issues?

[MICKI ]
Hey. Micki.

Babe, I'm out.

All right. Bye, babe.

Hey. I, uh, just came
to ask about your mom.

Yeah.

Apparently she's being
detained in San Antonio

for a DWI hit-and-run.

I don't buy it.

She doesn't even drink...

Her whole MO is accountability,

which really doesn't jive
with hitting or running. Yeah.

I'm with you there.

Though,

if she were convicted it
would make life easier on you.

Uh

I hope you're joking.

Walker, I'm just

I'm still... reeling.

I'll come with you. San Antonio.

I don't need backup.
It's not backup.

Look, if I go, we can make
this an official case,

since it doesn't involve
anyone from my family.

And so what am I?

Just a silent observer?
You know what?

We'll come up with
a creative title

for you along the way.

Okay, well, just nothing
with "assistant" in it.

No, no. Take however
long you need, Walker.

Things are, uh, pretty
slow here at the office.

I appreciate it,
James... uh, Captain.

All right.

Mm.

It ain't easy lying
to your brother,

I will tell you that.

I know.

I'm lying to him and Bret.

But what can we say right now?

Oh, hey, maybe
Carlos Mendoza wasn't

the slam-dunk perp that
we all thought he was?

Well, any prosecutor
would've called that

a slam dunk. I just
don't understand

why an innocent man
would continue to lie

about killing Emily.

Well, that's why
we're here, isn't it?

Since Geri is MIA.

That drone footage has her
two miles away the night of.

Not a lot Geri could
tell us anyway.

Other than why she was
making sketchy payments

to an art gallery
through her bar.

If we can't follow Geri,
then we follow the money.

(indistinct chatter)

Almost done with the bags?

Yeah, almost.

(quietly)
No thanks to you.

Here you go.

(chatter continues)

Hey. Any word from
that friend of yours?

Mm-mm. No.

Hey, Ruby. Check this out.

Hey, you brought the big guns.

Hey, yep.

Oh, so I was actually thinking..

For the dance we're
supposed to cover next week,

if, uh, I could...

Ah... Oh, hey. Perfect timing.

This is our newest A/V member.

Todd, August was just talking

about the dance next week. Ah.

Same one I'm taking
you to, Rubes? Yeah.

Um, I was just going
to say that I

could film it alone,

so that you guys could

go to the dance together.

[BEL]
Augie,

can you help me with my camera?

Yeah. I think it's broken.

(indistinct chatter continues)

Just thought it looked like
you didn't want to be there

while "Rubes" was happening.

Oh.
(Chuckles) Yeah, that? No.

A bunch of kids go to the dance
together just as friends, so...

Right...

Listen, I've been there.

It sucks when somebody
gives you fireworks

but you can't give them back.

[COACH BOBBY]
All right,girls. Let's get a move on.

(scoffs softly)

Is that your, uh...

Water boy. Oh.

(quietly)
Thirsty, aren't we?

Hey, what happened?

We almost left without you.

Aw, were you worried?

Should I be?

Duke ruined our family.

He's the reason your mom is dead.

And we're not just gonna let that sit,

now, are we?

[STELLA]
Should I be worried?

Course not.

Let's go.

(siren wails)

Hey.

Hey. What'd you get?

Case file.

Bail just cleared, my mom
should be out any minute.

You know,
I still don't understand

how this got pinned on her.

Racial profiling, maybe?

Mexican-American driving a fancy car?

Look,
all I know is ACLU's gonna have

a field day when they
hear about this. Hey.

Mom, thank God.

You bailed me out?

(exhales)

I've already called someone else.

You shouldn't have come here, Micki.

All right, I'm sorry.
My mom's accused

of a nonsense crime... Micki, stop.

Look, I called some people,
we'll get the press involved,

I told you to stop.

No calls, no press.

I will take care of this myself.

Huh.

So that's it, huh?

Your childhood home?

Wait, wait, wait.

We're not gonna go in,
Walker. We're just

we're just gonna keep an eye out

in case she does
something weird.

We're spying on your mom?

(laughs)

Look, I know you want to believe

Adriana is innocent, but
she said it herself...

Yeah, I heard her, and
I don't believe her.

There was blood at the
crime scene, Micki.

The report said it matched your mom's.

It was an incomplete DNA profile;

That would never hold up in
court. You know what will

hold up in court?

Adriana pleading guilty.
That's case closed.

Look,
if she was involved in an accident

where enough blood was collected,

we'd see bruises at the very least.

Maybe...
that's what her scarves are for.

Look, even if you're right...
which you're not...

It still doesn't explain the bracelet

they found at the scene.

Patron saint for addicts. So...

So, my mother would never
wear a religious pendant.

She calls the church.

"The Organized Mafia of Sainthood."

It's just not her. Micki

I know what it's like

to go after things that
don't make sense to you.

But listen, if-if they make
sense to everyone around you,

maybe you should listen.

It's like, uh,

"Rocco's Radio," right?

The simplest explanation
is usually the truth.

It's a famous principle.

That's Occam's Razor, you chump.

How did I work so
much harder than you

and end up with the same job?

Maybe because I

can spot a suspect
leaving their premises

while you would rather
ramble on about a razor.

Okay.

(excited chatter)

[TREY]
Go, Stacy.

All right.

We're doing this.
(Laughs)

So.

Uh, you and my sister?

Yeah. Yeah.

Is it... is it weird for you?

Uh, it's fine.

It's not... it's not like
I'm her dad or anything.

Well, sometimes I, uh, I am.

But I'm-I'm fine. I'm fine.

But also curious.

'Cause, like, how do you

I mean, how do we guys...

Dude, spill it.

How do I get a girl to like me?

(chuckles)

Oh, man, I can teach you

how to get a girl to
like you, little guy.

Dude, we are literally
the same height.

We're at a place with a pool.

This calls for the UV-13 method.

Okay, but it's, like,
freezing outside...

Whatever.

The point is there
are vacation vibes.

Works indoors, too.

So when you're downstairs by
the pool, or not the pool,

make sure to find that
right light angle.

From the Sun,

or the bulb. Either works.

And how does one
do that, you ask?

We didn't. 42 degrees.

That's the angle deviation
from the light's incoming rays

and it looks kick-ass
when it hits your shades.

Okay, Billy, is that even true?

Nobody should wear shades indoors.

It's physics. Of course it's true.

So, find that exact angle

and walk 13% slower
than you normally do.

Girls won't be able to tell,

which makes it the
perfect slo-mo walk.

Right.

But, like, that's not something

that I-I would usually do.

So? So? I mean,

what's the point of doing
it if it's not the real me?

Gotta say, I didn't peg you as
a contemporary abstract fan.

I'm not. But sometimes

you don't know what you're
looking for until you see it.

Right?

[JAMES]
Hola.

?Estás abierto?

Um... un momento.

Would you mind filling this out?

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

Hi.

Hola.

Uh, Spanish, English or...

(laughs)
Whatever lo que tú quieres.

That's a good one.
(Laughs)

I just was passing by the store.
It looked interesting, so...

It's a gallery, not a store.

Oh, I'm-I'm sorry.

I mean, you sell art here, right?

Yes. Okay, I hate to break it
to you, but this is a store.

(laughs)
And what are you, a lawyer?

No, no, no, I'm, uh

I am whatever lo que tú quieres.

(laughs)
Nice.

[WALKER]
You know this place?No,

[MICKI]
but I know this isn't the safest neighborhood.

What the hell are you doing, Mom?

Ooh, maybe she's a drug dealer
and this is her stash house.

(sighs)

Or maybe Adriana is
visiting a friend,

and what all this means is you
don't really know her that well.

I used to.

Even then, at least we knew
we always had each other.

She used to say the hardest days

was when I'd cry and
scream all night and...

(trolley bell dinging)

The only thing that
would calm me down

was watching the
trolleys with her.

Made me feel safe.

Loved.

Like no one else was there
and nothing else mattered.

And then, at some
point, something

changed between us. She...

She just kept wanting
to protect me,

and I wanted to protect others.

You must think I'm
being crazy, don't you?

I think

you care.

I think you want to make her
proud because, deep down,

you want her to finally
understand your choices.

And if you care that much...

Enough to share all that with me...

Then why don't we prove to
Adriana that you're right?

So, first question:

Why would Adriana lie?

Well, she's pretty notorious

for taking down cops
and agents, Rangers.

(sighs)
Okay, uh, we can dance with that.

Why would she need
to protect herself?

Maybe someone in San Antonio
has something on her.

No, or maybe someone in San
Antonio is threatening her.

Yeah.

All right, that tracks.
(Clears throat)

I'll have Connie send over
all your mom's old cases.

What? You got my six all of a sudden?

All of a sudden?
(Laughs)

I'm a hundred miles from home, Ramirez.

I always got your six.

We just needed to find an angle first.

(quiet chatter)

[AUGUST] It's all right.
It's just one game.

I didn't know you spoke Spanish.

Sí.

(laughs)

And, uh, I'm also
filming the game, so, uh,

you can just take it home
and watch it with your folks.

It's not gonna matter.

Oh, I know. 3D is different than video.

No. They're not home.

They're in Mexico.

They would've been deported.

They didn't want to
drag me into it, so

here we are. Bel, I'm

I'm so sorry. I-I didn't
know that. Nobody does.

What sucks is that I'm so close
to them and we can't even hug.

We can't even

No. No, I'm here.

you really didn't have to. No, I did.

Do. Do.

But you're right. There-there
is something wrong.

Yesterday, I had a
weird talk with my dad.

And he just kind of got into
my head and under my skin.

I'm sorry, I-I really just
didn't want to lay it on you.

It-it's weird because

the only reason I came here
was to be close to him,

but sometimes all I want to
be is as far away as I can.

It's not weird. I get it.

But you shouldn't have to
leave just because of him.

He's the one in jail.

Speaking from experience

it's not our job to
inherit our dads' baggage.

Except for the, uh,
slipup last week. Right.

I was about to get rid of all

"Her failure shouldn't affect

prepping me for
Adriana's psych eval.

I let my emotions

get the best of me when
I was handling a perp.

I'm not proud of it. Hmm.

That sounded almost
like a breakthrough.

But it's not about
what happens in court,

it's about what happens
after that counts.

MIKE: Hmm. Yes, ma'am.

(chuckles)

You have any advice
on how I can avoid

the same mistake again?

As long as you don't
mind the psychobabble.

Oh, and that's my cue.

Mike, you mind helping
me with the grill?

Sure.
[MICKI] I just want to tell you

how much I appreciate you
being there for my mom.

Especially after the accident.

Just must have been really tough

seeing her with bruised
ribs and-and a cut and...

Her shoulder.

She hurt her shoulder,
not her ribs.

Right. My mistake.

Still, that must have been a
tough conversation to have.

You know, you, a cop, your
girlfriend's in a hit-and-run.

Did she admit it
straightaway or... O-Okay.

I-I made a mistake.

And now I'm trying to make amends.

Is that so hard to believe?

I'm just trying to find an explanation

that actually makes sense.

High school games were a

Thanks for the help. I've had run-ins

with a few of these fellas in the past.

Northside Nation.

Yeah, no, I'm, uh, I'm familiar.

We, uh, took down a
faction in Austin once.

Though, those arrests

lacked tonight's pizzazz.

I'll be sure to make note of that.

We have space in the cruisers

to take the kids back to the hotel,

Uh, we'll take mine.

looking for some trouble.

As soon I'm out,

I'll find her,

she's looking for.

Mercedes is my sister.

And she's... a drug addict.

When you were born, she
tried to get her act together

and go to rehab and

become the mother
that you deserved.

So she left you with me.

It was just gonna
be for two months,

and then two months
turned into six months,

and then a year, and then

after three years,
she finally came back.

But by that time, it was
too late... you were mine.

I raised you.

She told me that she
was clean, but

I knew she wouldn't
stay that way.

I knew that sooner or later
she would drag you down

into her mess.

So I told her the truth, that

she was no longer your mother
and she had to let you go,

and she said that she would

if I paid her.

She sold me?

I left town, I changed our
names... You-you what?

Wait, what's my name?

Your name

is Micki Ramirez.

(crying): What's my name?

Nina.

Nina Ruiz.

You were born in
Carlsbad, New Mexico.

But I raised you here,
so she wouldn't find us.

Until she did.

A week ago.

She tracked me to
one of my lectures,

and she begged me to

let her see you.

We got into a fight, and

she drove off, drunk.

And got into that accident.

The one that you said
you were guilty of.

I was, in a way.

I was, I was responsible for,

for years of her misery.

I wanted to protect you.
It's... it's complicated.

Only you could have
uncomplicated it at any point!

But you chose to lie to me

my entire life.

So you wouldn't
turn out like her.

That's not your choice to make.

I'm your mother. No.

(sniffles)

I always asked myself,

why couldn't I
make my mom proud?

And you let me feel that way.

You never had that right.
