Miles.

How... how? I-I don't understand.

I knew you were alive.

It's so good to see you, Cass.

But we found your blood,

- and casings. - I know, I know.

Look, that night, uh...

when we got to tip

at the warehouses, you and I split up.

As soon as you were inside,

You ready?

We, uh...

we staged it.

We staged my murder. We wanted

to keep everyone safe.

From who?

Miles, you still

haven't told us.

Safe from who?

I checked all active

Ranger investigations,

and guess what? Yours was not an official op.

Couldn't be.

We don't know who to trust.

But you trust Captain Cole.

Do you know what kind of man Captain Cole really is?

I spent months looking for you.

I forced myself to think that you were alive

even when everyone made me feel like I was crazy.

And I-I can't believe I even

have to ask you. You can't just level with me?

- Miles, whoever was outside of that trailer

tried to kill us.

And they would have if we hadn't shoot our way out

and-and hide in the brush for hours.

You need to start talking, Miles.

Why use my gun?

- What are you talking about? - Oh, just

cut the crap and tell me why you wanted me to feel responsible.

Cass, I don't know how that happened.

I swear.

Listen, the threat is still out there.

It's not safe for me to be here right now.

Hey, here is the safest place for you to be

until you tell us who's trying to kill you and why.

Damn you for keeping me in the dark.

Cassie...

Uh, hey, Stella. What are you...

Oh, I kept my key and I watch you sleep every night.

Your dad let me in.

I'm making you a Mawline omelet.

Also, good morning.

Morning.

So...?It's like a Denver

but instead of green peppers it has mushrooms.

- Try it. - Okay.

That's really good.

What's the occasion?

I don't know, me and my boyfriend

were rescued off a mountain, for one?

Boyfriend, huh?

Is that okay?

Uh, yeah, it's better than okay.

- Also, there's another thing. - Mm.

I think our families should have dinner.

Together.

Wave the white flag, you know?

You-you think dinner could do that?

It was actually my uncle Liam's idea,

but I do really think it's worth a shot.

Well...

I mean, I guess.

If we make it out alive.

Yesterday was not great,

but at least they worked together.

Wouldn't that be nice

if it was all the time?

Without the "almost dying in the woods" part.

You know, can-can I finish this?

Are you gonna talk to your mom?

For you? Yes, I will.

Then, yes. Please continue.

Maybe I shouldn't have pulled up all of Abby's heirlooms,

- huh? Thank you. - Speaking of which,

- Colton called. - Mm-hmm?

He wants us to have dinner with them.

- Oh. - Him and Stella want us

to bury the hatchet, I guess.

Oh, that's very sweet.

You know I'd do anything for my grandson,

- but in this instance, no. - No.

No, I think we should.

I mean, don't you think it's time?

We can end all the drama from the past year.

We... It's not us, Ger.

Liam is the one that tried to frame Dan.

And Cordell--I mean,

he's got his own issues. I mean, doesn't he?

I think Geri's right. Yeah.

A Davidson-Walker supper's been long in the making.

- Mm. - Why not?

Why not.

- Mm. - Are you serious, Mother?

- What? - You want to eat

- with them after everything? - No.

I just want to know why they want to.

That is reason enough.

Rita. Hi. Thank you for coming.

You said it was urgent.

Um, is this about

what I said to Captain James about following Fenton?

Yes. It is.

After the Ranger fair, I started to look for things.

Does Fenton know you're here?

No, you said not to tell anyone.

Come with me.

I don't believe it.

- Is this you? - Yeah, it's me.

It's me. Hey, look, I'm here now, okay?

I'm here. Hey, where's,

uh, where's Sachi at?

Uh, she's at school.

I didn't know you would...

What's wrong? What's wrong?

I thought you were dead.

I was...

lost, confused,

to say the least. And, um...

Fenton...

What about Fenton?

He was there for us, Miles.

Fenton and I...

Oh.

Baby, we didn't know...

Fenton did.

He knew Miles was alive. The whole time.

He lied.

To both of you.

Is she telling the truth?

Yeah.

I trusted him.

I didn't know who else

to turn to, and he...You didn't know, no.

You couldn't have known about that.

And whatever the hell you two are mixed up in,

let us help you.

Liam,

hey, uh... not a great time.

What the hell is that?

Just try it.

Hey, I'm-I'm gonna be quick.

I spoke to Stella.

She said dinner is on with the Davidsons tonight, okay?

So we'll be civil,

get them to talk, and they just

might admit to something.

Okay? Are you still cool with that?

- You know, - Uh...

the kids are gonna kill you when they find out

that you used them to highjack this dinner.

The kids will forgive us

when we get the ranch back.

Let me get this straight--

so y-you're hoping that

Gale or Denise will fly off the handle,

slip up and confess?

Yeah.

Yeah, well, good freaking luck.

Uh, Stinker, D-Daddy's right.

I mean, I-I agree with him, you know?

And I-and I'm worried about collateral damage.

Collateral damage?

Cordi, they took everything from us.

No, I know, I know. It's just,

the kids. You know? And-and Geri.

A-All this "eye for an eye" stuff--

everyone's gonna end up blind.

Except Dan is our Trojan horse, okay?

He can get Denise to talk.

Plus, he's willing to testify.

You trust him?

I mean... I trust that he will

protect himself. Are you getting cold feet?

No, no, I'm not.

I-I just...

Liam, there-there's got to be some, uh,

some limit to what we can all take,

you know? D...

I-I got to... I to get.

- How is it? - It's pretty good.

- Cap. - Hey.

Got a location on Captain Cole.

About to have a little chat with him.

You hold down the fort there,

and then we'll finish this, all right?

Copy that.

Thinking about ditching the piano and taking up guitar?

I don't know.

You know, with the band officially disbanding,

I think it's time to try something new.

You've grown so much this year.

With everything that's going on...

...losing the ranch, your dad's work and...

You haven't complained once.

I don't know about that one.

Well, you were a pain in the neck

about letting your collarbone heal.

But, um...

I'm very proud of you.

Thank you.

So, does this mean you'll, uh...

help me out?

- Oh, that's pretty. - Yeah.

Oh, no. No, no.

There's more on sale over there.

- Sorry, what? - Guitars.

I heard you guys talking.

Couldn't tell if you were looking

for a guitar player or teacher,

but either way...

- My social handles. - I'm Kit.

Thanks.

Look, don't just stand there,

pull up her social handles.

Okay, okay.

Captain James. What are you doing here?

Actually,

I have a few questions of my own.

Here's one. Why'd you fake Miles' death

and then hook up with his wife?

- Wait, what? - Yeah.

It's that kind of conversation.

We know about the trailer, too,

by the way.

You happen to know who was shooting at us?

Oh, no. Uh...

Miles-- did they get him?

No, he's fine. He's fine.

Not thanks to you, I'm guessing.

I'll tell you, man,

there is a special kind of hell

for the games you've been playing.

And a supermax for all the laws you've broken.

I didn't break any laws.

Insurance fraud, conspiracy, running an illegal black op.

faking the death of a Texas Ranger.

You're probably gonna get a little more

than a slap on the wrist.

I'm gonna ask you again.

Who's trying to kill us?

This is what Miles and I were trying to avoid.

I mean, I'm sure they're tracking me,

- which means they know. - Who?

- Ah, they'll keep coming. - Who?

Who's they? Who's coming?

Walk away from this, Larry.

Trust me.

Trust you.

Okay.

How about we head on down to HQ.

We can sort this all out.

Gentleman.

Whoa, whoa. Hey, hey.

What?

I'm gonna need you to take a beat.

- All right? - What? I was right

about him the entire time.

- I should be in there. - You should.

But he's already anxious, and we need him to talk.

You understand that this is the entire reason I'm in Austin.

Miles, Fenton. If I don't shut this case...

You will. Cassie, you will.

Listen to me. What I need right now,

what I'm asking you to do

is get Miles to the safe house, okay?

That's where he needs to be tonight.

I'm gonna call in Trey. He can help settle him down,

keep him stable. But I need you there.

Nobody knows Miles better than you, right?

Well, so I thought.

Hey, I'm gonna take care of Fenton. Trust me.

He's not getting away with this.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Okay.

So, help me out, man.

Captain to captain. Who is "coming?"

Captain to captain...

you and your rangers should stay away from this.

Just answer the question here, Fenton.

I told you.

Miles and I were running an investigation

that you've now jeopardized.

Yeah, I've already spoken to your superiors.

They don't know anything about your investigation.

Or this threat that you keep talking about.

You do realize that you're done with the Rangers.

Do you really think that that matters at this point?

That trailer was just the beginning.

Just tell me who we're dealing with, Fenton.

And who are you trying to protect-- yourself,

someone else?

I'm a dead man no matter what.

You want to think I'm a dirty cop? Fine.

But I'm trying to protect people.

Are you?

Like who-- Rita?

You manipulated your Ranger-- your alleged friend--

- and then seduced his wife? - No.

It's not like that. I...

I'm done.

I'm done. I'm done talking.

You're done? All right.

Fine.

I'm keeping you here until I get answers.

You can't do that.

I can't?

Look, we may have been equals in the eyes of the DPS,

but I woke up this morning and I decided to keep my oath.

You clearly did not.

So I'm gonna keep doing my job

and I'm gonna wait for you

to tell me why you stopped doing yours.

What the hell are we doing here,

bringing biscuits and making nice?

I didn't bring biscuits.

I did bring squash casserole, collards,

and my berry crumble.

Well, there needs to be something edible on that table.

Everything all right?

We don't want to go in without you.

Hey, this is for a good cause.

I mean, we could put things to rest.

Might be we don't even have to stay for dessert.

But your mama made crumble.

We could eat it at home.

Which home?

The rightful one.

Are they ever gonna come in?

They've been out there for, like, 20 minutes.

I know. Must be so hard.

Almost makes me feel sorry for them.

And then, I remember. And I feel just fine.

Hey, there y'all are. You find us okay?

Yeah, we were...

we were just...She's kidding, August.

Oh, and you brought things. You shouldn't have.

Um, Geri is, uh, whipping up salad.

Yeah, family recipe.

For salad?

So, I...Oh. That was really thoughtful, Liam, thank you.

- I-I didn't know whether or not to pick white or red,

but it felt like the situation called for wine.

- Yeah. - Where's Cordell-- protesting?

Uh, no. He's at work.

But he'll be here soon. Uh, where's Dan?

I sent him out to get ice, but he'll be back.

- Hi, sweetie. - Hi.

Okay, Are you two sure this was a good idea?

Well, we can't all be scared to be

in the same place the rest of our lives.

Agreed. But I mean,

look, you two get to go off to college and escape.

I have to stay back and deal with these guys.

So just... let me take the lead on this.

There's no leading.

We just want to sit down at a nice meal

to show everyone that it's possible.

It's gonna be great.

Hey, Gramps.

Do you have any sage?

I feel like maybe we should burn some sage.

Sage?

No. I know where we can find some hemlock.

Hi.

Hey. I was just coming in to fill this up.

With strychnine?

Is this gonna be okay?

I really want it - to be okay. - I know.

And, uh, I-I'm gonna be good.

Look at all this food. Geez.

Well, I was feeling generous.

Yeah, looks like it.

Y'all, dinner's ready.

All right.

I, um...

Sorry.

Uh, we sitting?

Please.

Well, I-I'd like to make a toast to...

new beginnings and... family.

To us.

Was this your card?

What...?

It's gone. It's gone.

It's gone.

Mmm, the spice is really good.

Is this dry rub?

Uh, a little mixture I whipped up.

Happy to share it with you.

Oh, this is great.

Look at you two. This is nice. Right, Gramps?

- This is pretty nice. - You quite all right, son?

You know what? I forgot the mint

in the salad. I'm gonna go cut some.

- I'll be right back. Oh, all right.

I thought you took out the garden beds, Gale.

Oh, I did. But that mint just ran wild all over, didn't it?

Now, why the hell did you take out that garden, anyway?

It makes no sense-- all those mature plants?

Uh, well, just better light, Bonham.

You know, just, those trees cast such a shadow.

Yeah, well, I suppose

you'll be taking those out next.

So...

Excuse me a moment.

Well, this is nice.

Supposed to knock, son. We don't live here.

Dad.

Hey, yeah,

uh... what-what are you--

what-what are you, what are you doing in here?

I figured I'd better leave the table before I flip it.

Okay, uh...

- Hey. Ger. Cordi. Hey.

You going back in?

Geraldine...

You know you'll always have a place with us, but...

Y-Yeah?

Blood doesn't have to equal loyalty.

- This from the man who honors family

over everything.

You, of all people, should understand

my place in all of this.

Yes, Geri, he understands.

Daddy, Geri just wants e-everything right.

Well-- th-that's all any of us want.

Yes? Yes. Yes. Yes.

Of course. Of course.

Wow. Yeah, wow.

Yeah. Yeah.

- Uh, how is, uh, everything? - No bloodshed.

- Okay, yeah. - So there's that.

Okay, uh, yeah. There's... there's that.

Yeah. Yeah.

A-And, and, uh, you...You know what? Let's...

Let's just...Yeah, of course. Yeah.

- Okay, wait. So, can we just-- Can you just

walk me through the beginning,

the morning of the race?

Okay, so Denise was supposed to race originally?

- She wasn't supposed to. - No, no, I said

that I would - if it came down to it. - She wanted to.

But it did come down to it, so...

Oh, Cordell's here. Thanks for joining.

Oh, hi, son.

No, she was busy.

Remember? Arresting Augie.

No, no, no, it wasn't an arrest.

Besides, that was the day before the race even happened,

- Correct.

Thank you, August, very helpful.

Yes, so helpful.

So, you were late to the race because...?

I was at work, doing my job.

Right, right.

Now, your father, Liam, that was an arrest.

Is it really necessary

to go back over all this?

Yeah, it's-it's all, it's all just part of a process, Dan.

I mean, it's part of closure, right?

I mean, we go back through the steps,

we acknowledge what happened.

I mean, we discussed this. You agreed to this, right?

Wait, you discussed this?

Yes, Liam and I tried to find

- some kind of closure. - Closure?

Coming from the man who's been dodging divorce papers

for months. - Oh. - Mom.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Wow. Oh, my God.

I mean,

I know you want to keep your place in the farmhouse.

Well, I didn't know

I was in danger of losing it.

Hey, Mawline, is that your crumble in the oven?

Because it smells so good.

And so does everything - else at this table. - Mm-hmm.

- Why in the hell I ever decided to help you rebuild that barn,

- I will never know. - Oh, oh, what, you finally started

to rebuild the barn that Cordell burned down?

You know, finish it yourself. Fool me once.

- Can we, can we just, can we just

circle back to the morning of the race,

'cause I have a quick question.

Oh, my God.

Liam, what is your obsession?

What? You think I cut the saddle?

Is that what you're trying to say?

Wow, I actually

didn't say that, Denise. I didn't say that.

But since we're on the topic,

why don't you just walk me through exact...

- We won.

Okay, you're still trying to drag us through the mud.

You just can't stand that we're here, huh?

Then you tried to, tried to buy us off with-- what was it, Dan?

Ten acres?

- 20 acres. - Oh.

What are you talking about?

Yes, Liam and I tried to find a solution,

and he offered me 20 ac...

He offered us 20 acres.

Wow, well, I did not know that.

Well, it didn't happen.

Right? Didn't happen.

I mean, all deals were off once you took in my son.

Wow.

Everybody, wow.

What else don't I know?

Is there anything that you guys want to share with the table?

Okay, what? You think 20 acres is a deal?

You know, we were trying to help you out.

You know what, Bonham Walker? You had your chance.

You had the chance to give up a sliver of land,

but you didn't.

Because your pride wouldn't let you.

So don't blame me for the situation

you got your family into.

Yeah, well, that sliver of land happened to be...

Oh!Okay, okay.

Are we seriously doing this right now?

Look, this was supposed to be a celebration, wasn't it?

Right? That we didn't all die

the other day?

That our families were finally

working together for once?

He's right.

You want me to lead you through the events

of that morning? Fine.

That's the example that you want to set for our kids? Fine.

I got up, I went to work. I arrested your father.

And I was wrong.

I am adult enough to admit that.

But it is a shame that you cannot give us

a moment of peace.

I was gonna call someone to fix that.

No need.

You know, it doesn't matter

what you take.

How much you take.

It doesn't mean you know what you have.

Or that you can take care of it.

Ah, that is subtle, Abeline.

You didn't move that garden because of the trees.

You didn't want to be reminded of another thing

you couldn't win.

You know, you can, you can take all you want, Gale.

But you can't build anything,

can you?

You can't let something thrive that isn't yours.

You got it all now.

How sad that it's not enough.

- Well,

I'm-I'm sorry you had to hear that.

I'll tell you what's sad is how things ended up for her.

For all those Walkers.

You know, I honestly can't stand to talk about it

for another minute.

You know what? Let's just, let's just focus on the good, huh?

Right? I mean, like, here we are

together.

You know, I-I always knew we'd be together again.

I just knew it.

How...?

Well, you know, just-just in this life or-or the next.

That's all.

Okay? That's all.

Okay. This is...

How you're so hell-bent on protecting

an unauthorized investigation

that went off the rails, it's just-- it's...

...beyond me.

They wanted me to kill Miles.

If I didn't do it,

they were gonna kill him anyway.

Rita, too. And Sachi.

That trailer was the only thing

I could think of

to give Miles more time.

He's a good man.

And Rita...

I, uh...

I wasn't looking to fall in love.

But I did.

Captain to captain...

...please tell them both that I'm sorry.

Tell them what?

Tell 'em that you're sorry?

Look, I know we sacrifice a lot for our work,

but you have stolen from Miles and from Rita.

And I see that it's weighing on you, but what?

Not enough for you to... do the right thing?

Tell the whole truth?

Right.

All right.

We're taking a break.

Fenton.

Hey, hey.

Fenton.

I need help in here!

Call an ambulance.

Hey, Ger.

Hey.

How you holding up?

You, uh... you all right?

Yeah. No, I just, uh...

I just had a moment with Gale inside.

Hmm.

It was really strange.

Just-- sorry, one sec.

It's... Yeah. Uh...

It's James. Can I...?

Take it.

Sure?

- Yeah. - All right. Uh...

Cap, hi.

Hey, Fenton's dead.

He took himself out.

Where's Miles?

Understood, Cap.

All right. Captain James is on his way.

Looks like we might have to move you.

But until then...

...let's talk.

I should have trusted you.

Yeah, well, that would've been nice.

Miles, why'd you feel the need

to keep everyone in the dark?

Hey, I can handle this.

I know.

But Captain James asked me to mediate

so that things stay... productive.

Look, I-I swear to God,

Cass, I thought that that was the only way

to keep you, Rita and Sachi safe.

I honestly didn't think you'd come looking for me.

I made you drive us to six different gas stations

to find the perfect stakeout snacks,

and you didn't think I'd come looking for you?

Tell me it was worth it.

At all.

What'd you find?

Miles, go ahead.

We had been investigating that downtown chop shop, remember?

Yeah, well, that was one of hundreds of illegal businesses.

- One of the tamer ones. - Tamer?

What does that mean?

Human trafficking.

Murder for hire.

I spent six months connecting the dots

to a powerful group.

One that operates in the shadows.

It sounds like the cabal of cabals.

Yeah, well, it kind of is,

but I didn't think that they were real either.

Until one day I went to go pick up Sachi from school.

And they said someone had come by earlier for her.

Wh-What? Who?

I don't know, but...

We started feeling like we were being followed.

And Fenton said that they got to him

and they threatened to kill everyone...

unless I disappeared, so that's what we did.

Staged my death.

Took me out so we would stop the threat.

Until I started kicking over rocks.

Cap, what's up?

Walker's on his way with backup.

I think we need to get him

out of here as soon as possible.

Yeah.

It's too late.

Four minutes.

Go.

Stay tight.

Don't.

Don't. Don't think about it.

Thank you.

Yeah. Cap, hey.

I'm okay. I'm okay. These guys...

Good job in there.

Think we got lucky.

Want to know what I think?

I think Fenton was right.

I think this...

is just the beginning.

You know what? They're going to get Sachi

set up with a great school.

And you and Rita...

We'll be okay. We'll be okay.

You'll be safe.

And I'm going to find the truth.

Cassie, I...

Listen, I don't want you getting into this.

The whole time I was under it,

- I couldn't crack this. - Don't say that.

You did, you made the first crack

and now we just have to smash it.

Hmm.

Look, you don't know what Fenton wasn't telling you.

And I owe you for giving up.

You didn't give up.

Why did you, anyways? Why...?

Why did you keep pushing?

Because you believed in me.

More than I thought I deserved.

Other things in my life-- my brother,

stuff got messy, but...

But I thought if I could be the person

that you thought I could be,

and that could be the one thing I do right,

then I made Ranger, and you were my partner,

and it just all seemed too good to be true.

I couldn't let it be too good to be true.

This is probably the wrong time

to ask this, but...

will you miss it?

I'm-I'm burned.

All that time I had to myself to think.

I-I don't know.

Maybe it shouldn't have been that easy for Rita to let me go.

It was my fault.

I checked out

from being a husband a long time ago.

Maybe I wasn't locked up in that trailer,

but I was, I was...

I was gone.

I was right about you, though.

You're a great Ranger.

Now, you can be happy, too. You see? You can be happy.

I want you to...

I want you to learn from my mistakes, okay?

Just let yourself be.

Come here.

Come on.

Oh, my God.

- Yeah. - Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay.

Yeah.

- We all made it out. - Good.

Yeah.

Okay, so-so tell me.

Last night, with-with Gale?

Yeah, I...

There was something in her eye.

It's like... I don't know.

It was like she heard what she was saying

and she was correcting herself.

But I might be overthinking-- I mean,

we all had a lot of wine, so...

Don't-don't doubt yourself, Geri.

- Okay? - Thank you.

For being here with me.

Of course, yeah, anytime.

Nate. Hi.

- Come on in. - Ranger Walker.

Didn't think I'd see you till my court date.

Yeah.

This about Frank?

Uh... Could be.

I actually

wanted to ask you about Gale Davidson.

I have reason to think...

Well, I...

I just think that there's a chance

that she knew that I was alive.

And I-I'm not saying recently. I mean back then.

So I have to ask.

Did you ever tell anyone?

Never.

Are you sure, Nate?

I'm gonna look out for you in court.

This isn't about that. Geri just needs to know...

No, believe me.

There was no slip-up.

Never.

Frank would've lost you.

I couldn't have risked that.

Well, if Frank didn't know,

you didn't say anything...

Gale still somehow knew.

The only other person that knew

was Marv Davidson.

Right.

If Marv did tell Gale, if she knew...

I mean, what do you think she would've done?
