Previously on Big Sky...

You said Paige's stuff was gone.

- Help! - E-Easy, now.

Help!

Oh. Oh, God.

What have you done?

When you hired us, you failed to mention

that there are $15 million at stake.

Who are all these other people looking for them?

What do you know about Luke?

I know he's in trouble.

And I'm guessing that you're part of that.

You two kill Luke,

and then we'll go have a look-see for Paige.

Killing Luke was never part of the agreement.

You look terrified.

There are some bad people on this trip.

Hey, baby.

Miss me?

Paige. You're okay.

No thanks to you.

What are you talking about? You left me.

That's not how I remember it.

I left to get help.

Yeah, well, they found us.

Alright, Mr. Jimmy sent some freaks to the camp.

He knows where we are and he wants the money back.

Where's the journal? I-I thought you had it.

You took it with you.

If I had it, would I be here?

Look, Paige, i-it doesn't matter, alright?

The money's not important anymore. Let's go before it's too late.

She ain't going nowhere with you.

- Who the hell are you? - Me?

I'm the guy who saved her.

Paige... Paige, seriously, let's get the hell out of here.

It's true.

He saved me. From you.

You were gonna bash her brains in with that rock.

Yeah, that's right, I saw you.

I should have killed you when I had the chance.

Now, where's her journal?

Okay, just listen to me, for a sec.

Okay?

Are you just gonna stand there?

Oh, I'm just giving him a head start.

More sporting that way.

I'll be back in two shakes of a lamb's tail.

Emily was the one that found Mary's body off a trail.

Did anybody search the area where the body was found?

Well, after Buck brought Mary's body back,

he and Avery went back up to take a look around.

Daddy?!

Hey. Come here.

I got you. I got you.

You okay? Hmm?

What happened?

I followed Luke into the woods and I got lost.

And then I saw her.

She was bleeding.

I don't know. She had Paige's bag.

I just thought that she was hurt,

but then I saw her eyes.

Okay. Baby.

I got you.

Tell me about Luke and Paige.

Well, they were guests.

Uh, Paige left early. She went home.

And then there was a little something-something going on

between Luke and Mary after that.

Luke said that he was leaving.

He was really scared about something.

Emily's right.

We can't find Luke.

Excuse us. Come here.

We're gonna need to gather everybody and get statements.

- Okay. - We'll let the staff know.

Thank you.

You're okay.

Em.

- Hey. - We're so glad you're here.

Avery, Sunny said that you went out looking after the body was found.

What for?

Yeah, uh, Buck wanted to find Luke, so...

You think Luke could have done this?

I don't know. I don't know.

There's... There's a lot to process.

Rangers are setting up a roadblock while we lock down the crime scene.

What the...

What are you two doing here?

Same thing as everybody else.

Vacation, outdoor vibes. Now ruined.

- Really? - I know, right?

I mean, it's just our luck.

All we wanted to do was shut off for a couple of days,

and now this... A murder.

God, it's awful.

I'll be writing a review.

0.0 stars.

Where was Buck when you found Mary?

I actually don't know.

He must have heard me scream. Before I knew it, he was just there.

Okay.

Do you think Luke could have killed her?

No.

Is that a feeling you have, or is there something else?

It's just a feeling, I guess.

Okay. That's enough questions.

I know you're just doing your job.

Come on, Em. Let's get you some water.

- Avery. - Mm-hmm.

You need to tell me what the hell's going on here

and why you let my daughter wander off into those woods alone.

We had no idea. Alright?

She didn't tell Carla, either.

Can you give us a sec?

Tonya and Donno are here.

What?

Yeah. They obviously had something to do with this.

Did they confess?

If they didn't confess, we got to treat them

like everybody else... Possible suspects.

You shouldn't have brought Mary's body back here.

What were you thinking?

I had to do a little improvising after Emily found her.

Trust me, it's a good thing.

How is that a good thing?

Mary's DNA might still be on me or mine on her.

If that's the case, we have an explanation for it.

Smart. I didn't think about that.

Well, I really didn't have a choice.

I can't stop thinking about that girl.

No, don't do that.

She did nothing wrong, Buck.

Don't go there. It's done.

I know it. I know it.

We're in a lot of trouble here, Buck.

Listen. Luke's still out there, alright?

We're gonna use him.

He killed Paige and then he killed Mary to cover it up.

It'll make sense to the cops.

Cops like sense.

Thank you.

Alright, uh, do we have a timeline on Mary?

Uh, went for a jog alone around 3:00 p.m.

No one saw her come back to camp.

Apparently, Luke and Mary were actually hooking up.

Yeah. Emily said the same thing. After Paige supposedly split.

Except Paige didn't go home, not if this is her bag.

And now Luke is missing.

He and Cormac Barnes are the only ones not in camp.

Okay, let's collect statements from everybody.

Let's see if their stories match up.

Right.

Luke and Paige were going through a rough patch,

bickering like young couples do.

Yeah, well, I'd say it was a little more than that.

I had a bad feeling about those two from day one.

Luke especially.

He had what your generation would call toxic masculinity.

He was full to the gills with it.

Mary thought Paige was a bitch.

And she felt sorry for Luke. That's why they hooked up.

And, plus, he was cute.

Donno: Lots of dead things up here.

It's the woods.

Dead things.

I thought Luke and Mary were together.

I never met Paige. I'm told she was a pill.

Mary seemed nice, though.

Mary taught me some yoga poses for my bad back.

I liked her.

Mary was such a sweet girl. I feel like we failed her.

I hope you catch the bastard who did this.

You better catch him before I do.

I can't imagine anybody wanting to kill that poor girl.

I don't know. Luke seemed nervous to me, stressed.

Luke warned me about dangerous people being here.

And then he just disappeared into the woods.

Uh well, Luke didn't want to be here.

Paige dragged him up here for his birthday.

There is one thing that might be a factor.

Luke told me that he and Paige had $15 million in crypto.

When he told me, I thought it was a joke, but, um...

now I'm not so sure.

Guess Luke left in a hurry.

Deputies already searched this, you know.

Let's look again.

What Avery said about the $15 million changes things.

Okay, well, I wouldn't trust Avery, alright?

He's full of crap.

I don't think he was lying.

That son of a bitch charmed you, didn't he?

It was the accent, wasn't it? Uh-huh. Yeah.

You know, an hour ago, you were dead set

on Tonya and Donno being the killers.

The money is something we need to look into.

Found something.

Luke had Paige's phone.

Wait.

Emily said that Sunny was receiving texts from Paige.

I guess we know who was sending them.

Okay, so Luke kills Paige in a lovers' quarrel in the woods, right?

Hides the body, buries the bag.

And then Mary finds the bag,

so he kills her to keep his secret?

Strange he would run away and leave this evidence behind.

Yeah, something is just not making sense about this.

So being an errand boy has its perks.

I'm a perk?

That didn't come out right.

Mm-hmm.

How about we just dance?

Dance?

Yeah. Why the hell not?

Well, you asked me out for a drink, not a dance.

And it's been a long day, so I'm gonna take a rain check.

- I'm gonna hold you to that. - Okay.

So, uh, I've been meaning to ask you,

did you ever find out who my dad sold that truck to,

the... the one that burned?

You know about that?

I might've overheard you talking about it.

Um, no. I got nothing.

I don't think your dad's being completely honest.

Sorry. That's just the truth.

You think he has something to do with the dead backpacker?

No, I don't.

It's just one of those weird things I can't seem to square.

You mean my dad once owning a truck

who you saw some weird mountain dude

maybe transporting a dead body in? That's what you can't square?

Well, when you put it like that...

How else am I supposed to put it?

I mean, the camp does own a lot of trucks,

and old ones... Too many to count.

Well, what do you think about it?

I think I should probably head back to camp.

And I think I'm gonna collect on that rain check.

Yeah, you should collect.

You better bring your best dancing boots.

Oh, just you wait.

Okay.

Oh, boy.

Check that way.

Is someone there?

It's Hoyt.

We got a body down by the Chimney Rocks.

It's Luke.

What the hell?

Okay. Yeah.

I'll let you know when I track him down.

- Jenny? - Yeah.

She and Beau are up at Sunny Barnes' camp.

Two of their guests were murdered.

Holy crap!

Well, who does Jenny have you looking for?

Cormac Barnes.

But I was with him last night... At the Boot Heel.

Don't.

Well, does he know what happened?

I don't know. He told me he was going back up to camp.

Jenny says he never showed.

- Weird. - Yeah.

Alright.

Hmm.

Hey, get this.

Luke and Paige registered for this trip under fake last names.

Paige told Sunny she had a trust fund,

but in reality, she was a data-entry clerk.

So was Luke. They both quit their jobs days before this trip.

Okay.

So this wasn't necessarily a vacation, per Se.

Maybe they were hiding out.

But the $15 million Avery mentioned?

I'm thinking they stole it.

Could explain why Tonya and Donno are here.

- Maybe they're working a job. - I'm glad you said it.

I was beginning to think Donno was bribing you with his sandwich craft.

Okay, you know what? Let's not go there.

'Cause bad guys can have good points.

Donno's just happens to be sandwich skills.

Oh! Donno's making sandwiches?

I wish. But no. What do you got?

Uh, yeah, so there's a missing bow and quiver from the equipment shed.

Arrows match the murder weapon.

Who had access to that shed?

Everyone. They didn't keep it locked.

Okay, so question is, who had the opportunity

to kill both Luke and Mary?

We know that Cormac and... And Donno were both missing

the night of the supermoon hike.

Avery and Buck also could have done it

when they were out in the woods looking for Luke.

Everyone else is accounted for at the time of Luke's murder.

Now we just got to figure out motives.

Huh.

Who's this?

Hey.

Hi. I tried calling.

And I went to your place in town.

Oh, sorry. My phone must be dead.

I thought you were going back up to camp.

What are you doing at your parents'?

Yeah, I just had to stop by for something.

- What's going on? - Can we talk inside?

Yeah. Come in.

So why are you and Tonya really here?

Like we said, vacation.

Does that include killing Mary and Luke?

You got me.

Not.

Why didn't you go on that hike?

No group hikes for me.

Alone, in nature. Trees are my friends.

So that would explain how you got the mud on your shoes.

Yes.

Well, I wanted to go on the hike, but Donno didn't.

He's got a lot of rules.

It's kind of odd, isn't it?

You being up here with your cook?

I mean, the man's interesting.

He's not who you think he is.

No, I don't imagine he is.

The man contains multitudes.

Strong agree.

But hiking isn't one of them.

What about the marriage?

I understand you're up here pretending to be married.

You get freebies if you say it's your anniversary.

You know, bottle of champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries.

So it's just a total coincidence that you and Donno

were on this trip at this time.

Yeah.

I mean, if we committed a crime,

it's that we lied about being in love.

Good one.

I'm serious.

I named a sandwich after Tonya.

Grilled with only the good vegetables, none of the bad ones.

I'm not buying it.

I think you're here looking for a lot more than free champagne.

Speaking of marriages, I met your ex, Carla.

She's a boss.

Really impressive.

I don't know why you left her.

It's actually the other way around.

But we're not gonna get into that.

Why don't you tell me about Paige?

Paige was already gone when we arrived.

That doesn't mean anything.

You could have killed her and then showed up at the camp to get Luke.

Why would we do that?

Oh, I don't know. The money?

You found out about the $15 million,

so you decided to kill them both so you could take it.

Or you were hired to.

You have a fertile imagination for a cop,

but that doesn't explain Mary.

Try this on for size.

Mary found you burying Paige's bag, so you had to get rid of her.

That does explain Mary.

But like I said...

vacation, trees, fun, no murder.

The person you really should be looking at is Avery.

Oh, yeah? Why's that?

Well, his archery skills, for one.

Avery's quite the marksman.

Avery? Really?

Deadly. He surprised everybody.

Well, just 'cause he can shoot an arrow don't mean he killed Luke.

Well, I'm guessing that he's the one

that told you about the $15 million.

How'd you know that?

Avery was talking to Luke, like, a lot.

I'm just putting it out there.

You can ask your daughter if you don't believe me.

But something was going on with those two.

Avery.

Hey.

- What are you doing? - Nothing.

Um, hey, Em, when you found Paige's bag,

did you have a look through it?

No. Why? What is this about?

No, I'm just wondering if there's a-a clue in there

about the crypto Luke and Paige had.

- Crypto? - Mm.

What are you talking about?

Oh, just something Luke said.

It's probably nothing.

- Let's just leave the clues to my dad. - Absolutely.

Wait.

Mary and Luke are both dead?

Yeah.

Your parents haven't told you?

No. No, they haven't.

I-I need to ask, have you been here all night?

Yeah.

Yeah? Well, you told me you were going to the camp.

So is there something you want to tell me?

I was looking for the bill of sale for my dad's truck.

I was trying to do my parents a favor and help you out, of course.

Well, did you find it?

No, just the title.

So he never sold it.

Nope.

I just can't figure out why they'd...

lie to me about something like that.

You grow up thinking you know your parents,

but you forget they had whole lives before you were even born.

What do you mean?

Did you find something else?

Nothing.

Nothing?

We should head up to the campsite.

What's up?

Hey.

So, as you requested, I did some research on Avery and Carla.

Sent it to your phones. Pretty interesting.

Are we really doing this?

No stone unturned.

Stalking... That's a good look.

Wrong. Investigating a possible suspect

that happens to be my wife's new husband.

Also happens to be very good with a bow and arrow.

Yeah.

_

Wow!

This changes things.

Yeah, it does.

Alright, I'll take Avery, you take Carla.

Keep it professional, alright?

Maybe don't mention this thing between me and Avery.

I'm pretty sure she's aware of it.

Just professional. Stick to the facts. She's a lawyer.

She'll use your words against you, trust me.

- I think I can handle myself. - Well...

Let's see if she knows about Avery's little secret.

- Good work. - Yeah.

"Carla De Lugo, Criminal Defense Attorney of the Year"

in Houston for three years running.

- Did Beau tell you that? - No, he hasn't.

He hasn't said a word about you.

Or Texas or anything personal.

Oh, well, I'm not surprised.

Beau had some issues with people I defended at times,

and then he pretty much imploded, and so did our marriage, so...

I'm sorry. That was off topic.

No, go on, please.

He never mentioned the Hatcher shootout

or the bike gang, his partner?

Not a thing.

We just keep things professional.

I'm sure you do.

Uh, I just need to know where you were

from 6:00 p.m. last night to this morning.

Uh, after dinner, uh, Carla and I,

um, we had some alone time in the tent.

- We can move past that. - Right, yes.

Anyway, after that, Carla went to look for Emily,

and, uh, I got dressed, did some work.

And, uh, then we met up for the supermoon hike.

So you didn't see Luke at all.

No. No, I didn't.

Just, you seem to know a lot about Luke, the money.

Well, we chatted.

He felt comfortable opening up to me.

About $15 million, he just opened up?

Well, I thought he was joking.

Like I said, now I'm not so sure.

What else can you tell me about that?

Maybe it was just too much of a secret

and he needed to share it with someone and...

he picked me.

Hm.

So then he lost his partner, Randy,

when the whole operation went sideways,

and he just blamed himself.

Just checked out of everything.

Some very dark days.

I'm sorry to hear that.

He's a good man.

Yes. Yes, he is.

Anyway, it all worked out.

He seems to be thriving as the sheriff here,

and I am happily married to Avery.

That's great.

Okay, so why don't you ask me what you really want to ask me?

This isn't about Beau, is it?

No, it's Avery, actually.

I'm sure he's under a lot of stress

with what's been going on with his company.

What are you talking about?

You know, I've been meaning to ask, um,

how your company, Haypoint, is doing.

Oh. Yes, we're doing rather well, thanks.

I ask because I know the SEC is initiating

a fraud investigation for misleading investors.

Right, yes. I'm not at liberty to discuss that, I'm afraid, so...

Yeah.

You know, I think I've told you everything I know about Luke,

so if there's nothing else, uh...

It's just that the $15 million that Luke mentioned,

that's, uh... could be pretty tempting

to somebody in a financial situation, you know?

Am I a suspect?

We're looking at all possible motives.

I see what you're doing.

And I'm done.

And I want a lawyer.

Well, we both know a good one, don't we?

Yeah, looks like some... I can run it now.

We're just gonna have to find a way.

Alright.

There you are.

Nice of you to call.

Heard all about everything from Cassie.

Well, sorry, but it's been a little crazy up here.

Yeah.

Pharmacist was a little confused.

Said you, uh, refilled your prescription right before this trip.

He did.

But your father spilled some of them down the drain.

You know how clumsy he is.

You got something to say, son, say it.

- Yeah. - We got bigger fish to fry.

Well, I had a look in the attic.

Whatever for?

That old burned-out truck Dad said he sold.

I found the title for it.

Huh.

You sure it was the same truck?

I definitely sold it.

That Cassie's got you all worked up, hasn't she?

Nope.

No, she hasn't.

But this has.

Aww! That's your cousin Bryan.

Aunt Sally's boy who lives down in Florida now.

Uh-huh.

He's the one that taught you how to throw a football, remember?

This is what has you all worked up?

There was a hospital bracelet also.

Oh, good Lord.

Son, you need to let this go. I mean, we got real problems up here.

And this has nothing to do with that.

So you won't mind if I share any of this information with Cassie, then?

Well...

You need to steer clear of that gal.

We got a business we're trying to pull out of the fire.

Let's focus on that and not all the junk

that you're pulling out of the attic.

And I'd appreciate it if you'd just stop lying to me.

We can't do this to him anymore.

You want me to tell him about Walter in the middle of all this?

Luke is dead. That changes things.

We got to tell him everything. We got to circle the wagons, Sunny.

Why would we want to tell him that now?

Because maybe your boy Walter killed Luke and Paige

and the backpacker

and God knows whatever else he's up to.

Don't you say that.

Don't you dare.

Well, that's the truth.

You don't know any of that.

It's my story, and I'm going with it.

Damn near tells itself.

A little early for happy hour, isn't it?

You want one?

Thanks, but I'm working.

Never stopped you before.

I'm sorry. That wasn't fair.

That's fine.

How's Emily doing?

Fine, I guess, just all things considered.

She's tough, you know, like you.

Kind of describes you, doesn't it?

Touché.

You know, being up here reminds me of the time

we went camping at Copper Breaks when Em was just a baby.

Oh, yes. Good times.

Between the raccoons and the tornado warning.

Oh, those raccoons, they scratched the hell out of my truck.

Yeah, they did.

And then we spent all night passing Em back and forth

- 'cause of her teething. - Mm.

That was a good time.

Yeah.

It was.

- Hey. - Hey.

- Poppernak download you? - Yeah.

Someone in the camp, you think?

Well, we're still piecing it together.

But right now, we're still considering everyone a suspect.

I can help you remove one name.

Cormac was with me at the Boot Heel last night.

Then he went to his parents' place.

Security camera shows he never left.

I do need you to take a closer look at Buck Barnes, though.

What'd you find out?

Turns out he never sold the truck that burned up.

I think he's hiding something.

We got to get that journal and get the hell out of here.

I hate to admit it, but you're right.

They ask you about our marriage?

Yeah. I had to admit we lied about being in love.

Is that what you said?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, we're not in love.

Okay, quick. It's now or never.

Mr. Donno. Ms. Tonya.

Hey. How can we help you?

Well, you know what? Since you guys showed up,

nothing's been right around here.

Is that an observation or an accusation?

Well, Sheriff Beau said that you two lied about being married.

I don't like liars.

Well, I think you've got a little bit more to worry about

than our little white lies.

Murder.

Two murders.

You know, lying's just a stone's throw away

from all sorts of sins.

I got my eye on you.

What was that?

I don't know.

I think they call it cowboy mouth.

She also may be a witch. Let's go.

You were unaccounted for when

both Mary and Luke were killed, Buck.

Well, I mean, like I told you,

I was doing a safety check for the night hike.

Judging by the plaque in the equipment shed, you're a skilled archer.

I am.

I am. So are a lot of people here.

By moving Mary's body, you tampered with a crime scene.

Well, I mean, I couldn't leave the poor girl

out there for the bears.

Or maybe you did it on purpose.

What?

No. No.

For you to suggest that I would intentionally hurt

one of our campers, that's...

When I saw that girl, I treated her same as my own child.

So forgive me for not having the presence of mind

to follow police protocol.

We're just doing our job, Buck.

No, I understand. I understand.

You guys have any more questions?

Actually...

Have you seen this man?

Yeah. I've seen him.

I've seen him out in the woods.

Well, we believe he may be linked

to the Bleeding Heart Murder from 20 years ago

and the backpacker who died recently.

Holy hell. Really?

Yeah.

Do you know where we could find him?

No.

No, I, uh... I've only seen him a couple times.

And not in the same place.

Do you have any idea who he could be?

No, ma'am, I don't.

Whew!

Wish I could help.

Hey.

What's with the silent treatment?

You want me to talk? Fine.

I cannot believe that you didn't tell me

the SEC is investigating you.

I had to learn about that from the police.

That is Beau.

That is Beau, and he is trying to sabotage...

Is it true?

Yes or no? Is it true?

- Yes, yes. - Avery.

I'm sorry. I should have told you.

But I thought it would all be cleared up, and it will be, alright?

I made a mistake. I should have told you.

Mm-hmm.

But the problems with my company

have nothing to do with what is going on here.

When we get back into town, Emily and I are gonna get a hotel.

- Oh, for God's sake... - I need some time.

I need to think about things. I need a little space.

Carla, please.

Fine.

I'll stay in a hotel, and you can stay in the house.

Then we can talk when you're ready.

Road's closed. You need to turn around.

Aw. I was hoping to do some fishing.

Not here.

Is something going on up there?

I'm not at liberty to say.

"Liberty." Interesting choice of words.

Liber... the god of coming-of-age stories.

Is that what you're doing right now, Ranger?

Coming of age?

Gonna need you to turn your vehicle around. Not gonna ask again.

Mm. There it is.

From a boy to a man.

And so it goes.

Listen, don't make me contact my...

Throw the body in the back.

So you think the mystery mountain man is the Bleeding Heart Killer,

that he killed Paige, Luke, Mary, and Mark Woodman?

Possibly, yeah.

Emily mentioned that Luke saw a light

the night that Paige went missing.

It could have been him. Any idea where it was?

- No, she didn't know. - Cormac might.

He knows these woods.

So where exactly?

Right around here.

The area that you're talking about

isn't on any of the trail maps at the camp.

That's 'cause my mom didn't want any of the guests to go up there.

Probably 'cause my dad told her

he saw your man in the woods around those parts.

Best to keep the campers away from outsiders.

Okay. Let's go.

You heard him. Let's move.

Alright, everybody. Let's go.

Luke said the seed phrase words were highlighted on two pages.

Damn it.

How much longer do you think we should wait?

I used to go duck hunting with my grandpa.

Dark, cold.

The wait...

So this guy here... Hard or soft?

It don't matter.

Pearlina will sort him out.

Walter.

Walter, are you in there?

The sheriff's department is coming for you.

Please, if you're in there, run!

Okay, you need to hang back, keep out of sight.

Please be safe.

I will.

What do we do?

Nothing to do.

No. We can't give up. There has to be a way.

You have nothing to be afraid of.

You've done nothing wrong.

That's not true, Walter.

If they take me, I'll be dead by morning.

Trust me.

Alright, what do we think we're walking into here?

I don't know. He's been up here for a while.

Paige could be in there. Let's go.

Listen to me.

No matter what happens, okay,

I need you to know, you'll always be my prince.

Come with me.

It doesn't go far, just to the edge of the woods,

and then you'll have to run.

Sheriff's department! Come out with your hands up!

Hey.

I love you.

Now go.

Anybody in there, come on outside.

Sheriff's department. Hands where we can see them.

Now.

Hello, friends.

Down the steps.

Slowly.

On your knees.

Nice to see you again.

Take him away.

I don't know. It just felt too easy.

I'm good with easy. Take the W's when we can get them.
