Previously on when calls
the heart...

[coughing]

faith: You've got wheezing

and a slight strider
on your right side.

This could be the start
of pneumonia.

You've taken issue with
everything I've done as mayor.

I know you didn't believe
in hickam,

but if you ask me he
has turned out to be

the unqualified best choice.

[applause]

rosemary: The right mayor
for the right time.

Mei: I told you,
he's made up everything.

You believe me, don't you?

You see, word came back
from chicago

that the marriage license
for you and mei is fraudulent.

[chuckles]

oh.

After what happened at
mrs. Thornton's book launch

I don't think I'll ever be
planning another surprise party.

No, we're just gonna have
a nice quiet dinner.

Would you like me to play "happy
birthday" on my accordion?

That won't be necessary.

[speaking french]

did you just disregard the fact
that I speak french too?

Alright.

Thank you.

Fiona, welcome back.

Where's henry?

San francisco.

Well, that's where I left him
when I boarded my train, anyway.

You replaced the horse-drawn
cab.

I did, but that's not important
right now.

Please tell me what happened.

Nothing went as we discussed,
especially after henry arrived.

Thank you.

Right away he confronted
the investors

about whether they planned
on re-opening the mines.

I've seen henry's rage
but never like that.

It took three men to drag him
out of the boardroom.

You have no idea
where he is now?

At the train station he said
he had something to do

and just walked off.

What about the
investor referendum?

They voted that I replace henry
with one proviso.

You remain on board
in your current position

for another fiscal year.

-Ah, morning, ned ol' boy.
-Hello, bill.

Well, molly, florence.

Oh.

I will uh, pick these up later.

Uh, your dirty clothes?

Florence is not a washer woman.

Well, certainly she doesn't
expect me

to order one of these things
unless I know that it works.

Much appreciated.

Well, he's in a fine fettle.

I heard he was having some
issues with his health.

Yes, and I do worry
about the man.

Hmm.

Hickam!

Ah, how are you this morning?

Ah, well, any time my day starts

with someone taking in
my dirty laundry,

it's a good day,
that's what I say.

How about you?

Well, I haven't been sleeping.

Oh, sorry to hear that.

Thank you, but I know
what I need to do.

In order to sleep again, I mean.

Ok.

I'm gonna resign from office.

What?!

You just got elected.

And with the success
of hope valley days, it was-

being mayor, it...
Just isn't for me.

Now, hickam, let's you and I
discuss this.

Bill! Partner!

I could use a hand.

And my day was off
to a great start.

How did you possibly find roses
this time of year?

Happy birthday.

They're gorgeous.
Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, are we still on for tonight?

No big surprises,
no big parties.

Just you and I and jack.

And that makes me very happy.

Well, that makes me happy
too, then.

Say, elizabeth, you wouldn't
happen to have

abigail's number, do you?

I'm trying to track down henry.

He didn't come back with fiona

and he isn't with christopher
in bellingham.

Well, he isn't with abigail,
either.

She just called to wish me
a happy birthday.

Oh.

Is everything alright?

Why don't I come by?
I can explain.

You know the way.

I'll see you soon.

Alright.

-Walden.
-Ah, lucas.

Good morning.

You look surprised to see me.

Is there something
that you want?

The queen of hearts saloon.

And you're going to sell it
to me.

We've already discussed this.

What makes you think
I'd change my mind?

Why don't you sit down
and I'll explain it to you?

Julius, could we have
a moment please?

laura's upstairs playing
with jack.

I don't want you to worry,

but I think you should know
what's going on.

When you say you don't
want me to worry...

Wyman walden is back.

You thought he was gone
for good.

Why do you think he's back now?

I have a fair hunch,

but I need to explain something
to you first.

My black eye.

I got it because I refused to
continue working with walden.

You were working with him?

I was trying to let him run
a grift on me.

A swindle, so I could beat him
at his own game.

Why would you do that?

Because these kinds of people
just think

they can take whatever
they want.

I was trying to operate a sting.

Have him arrested by my contact
at the treasury department.

My friend from new orleans?

She's been after him
for some time.

Only she went silent,
so I called it off.

And I haven't been able
to reach her since.

Now walden's back
and he's muscling me

into selling him
the queen of hearts.

Alright, I- I appreciate
what you were trying to do

but I don't think you did
yourself any favors

handling it this way.

Lucas, I think we should
talk to bill.

I'll let laura know
we're leaving.

May I be worried now?

You have so many whats-its and
doo-dads and whatcha-macall-its.

Oh! This is going to be
so much fun.

I simply cannot wait.

Thank you so much for lending
us the use of your beauty salon.

What will you two be doing

during elizabeth's day
of beauty?

Oh, well, I have
a few ideas but,

well, you know elizabeth.

Mmm.

She never likes
to be fussed over,

not even on her birthday.

What better day
to be fussed over?

[laughs]

but isn't that exactly
what you're doing

with all the hair and
the makeup and whatnot?

Well, yes, but she agreed

because she wants to look
special for lucas tonight.

You know elizabeth, she's always
putting others before herself,

even on her birthday-
especially on her birthday.

So, that is why, in addition
to her day of beauty,

I am also giving her... This!

[laughs]
a tricycle!

Well, what do you think?

Isn't it a little small?

It's for little jack.

I figured as much.

Well, what I can't figure
is this letter.

We have this guy, gilchrist,

coming all the way
from california.

I don't know why.

Would that be arthur gilchrist?

Well, yes, as a matter of fact.

He works for the hearst
newspaper chain.

He sounds very important.

Apparently he has heard

of our fledgling yet vibrant
little offering.

He sent us a letter saying
he wants to have a meeting

with the editors of
the valley voice.

How he came to hear of us,

well, we're still really
not quite sure.

Oh, wouldn't that be something,
though?

If this man wants to add
our little newspaper

to the hearst empire,

well, think of how our
readership will grow!

[door opens, closes]

mei?

Hello?

-Oh!
-Faith.

-Do you know where mei is?
-She's not inside?

-No.
-Oh.

I'm just dropping off
a patient file

but if I see her later,
I'll tell her you came by.

Great. Thanks.

Oh, faith, are you um...
Are you missing a sock?

A sock?

Never mind.

As if I'd wear argyle.

[humming]

mei.

What is it?

I'm leaving for chicago.

And I don't know how
to tell nathan.

[sighs]

fiona?

San francisco's on the line.

Hello?

I'd like to speak to
mr. Gilchrist, please.

Yes.

Would you ask him to call
fiona miller?

Tell him it's important.

Not urgent but important.

Yes.

Oh, uh, fiona!

Fiona! Are you busy?

Uh, lee coulter's in my chair.

Oh, maybe he can help.

Uh, minnie went to st. Louis
with angela

and the café is shorthanded.

Oh.

Well, I could help out later.

Much appreciated, thank you.

Oh, thank goodness.

Fiona, please take the scissors
from this woman.

I don't know why he is acting
like such a child.

I've cut his hair before.

I've cut your hair before!

Exactly my point.

Fine.

Thank you.

I do have a tonsorial trick
or two up my sleeve, you know.

Skills I acquired
in summer theater.

Or, as devotees of the straw
hat circuit

like to call it these days,
summerstock.

Any chance you learned any short
order skills at summerstock?

No, but I did work at the café.

Keep it in mind she spent
more time

working as a hostess
than a waitress.

I was wildly popular.

Ehh.

I could use some help
over there.

Oh, well I'm already occupied
for the day

but lee makes a wonderful
breakfast in bed.

You do.

Oh, that's good enough.

Uh... Yeah.

Yeah, of- sure.
Of course, joseph.

I- I'd love to help.

Stop on by, I'll put you
to work.

I will.

Bye now.

Gee, sweetheart. Thanks.

You're welcome.

Bill: Of course I've had
my doubts about you

but haven't I proven myself
enough of a friend

to come to me?

I just didn't want to involve
anyone I didn't have to.

You mean you wanted to handle
this on your own.

Anna!

[coughing]

oh, hi mrs. Thornton.

Pleasantries later, please.

Yes.

You do know what's prompted

walden's sudden return to town,
don't you?

-I have a good idea.
-I don't.

There's something I haven't
told you.

It's not his fault.

I asked everyone involved
not to discuss it.

There's a very real possibility

the coal mine could be
re-opened.

Re-opened?

By- by whom?

Smith and his investors
through the oil company

if they become majority
shareholders.

And because coal is used
to make steel,

they'll likely be the foundry's
supplier.

That's why there hasn't been any
construction out at the foundry.

Coal was the missing piece
to make this happen.

And that's why walden's back.

He must have heard a deal's
in the offering.

I just don't understand.

The judge ruled that the mine
could never be re-opened.

Judge parker, who made
that ruling, died last year.

The oil company will no doubt
challenge that ruling

and have very deep pockets
to do so.

And walden is here
to take advantage

of the whole situation.

So, what do we do?

Well, we do the only thing
we can do.

We let walden buy
the queen of hearts.

You may not feel like being
mayor anymore

but just hang in there.

You think this plan will work?

It's gotta work.

Now remember, hickam,
let me have it.

I'll try.

[hickam and bill arguing]

hickam: ...While you may be the
judge, I've been elected mayor.

What I say goes for this town,
bill.

-Mayor.
-Mr. Walden.

Judge avery.

What do you want?

How soon could you facilitate
a quick claim deed?

Deed for what?

The queen of hearts saloon.

Maybe later this week.

Later this afternoon
would be better.

Well, what's the rush?

It seems lucas is in a hurry.

Well, maybe you should tell me
what's going on.

I make it my practice to not pry
into other's personal affairs.

[scoffs]

later today.

Walden, wait a second.

I'm done with the café.

With being a forensic
investigator.

I wanna be mayor again

and I wanna secure something
substantial for myself.

I don't see what that has
to do with me,

so I'm afraid you're
on your own.

Even if I can get you the queen
of hearts without paying a cent?

Oh, my goodness.

Why are you so tense?

How can you tell?

Elizabeth, I'm your best friend.

I know when something's
upsetting you.

But you're also clenching
your fists.

I have to uncurl your fingers.

I need to talk to you.

But not as the editor in chief.

Alright.

Lucas tried to run wyman walden
out of town

but now it seems things have
gotten out of hand.

Do you mean life and death
out of hand?

I certainly hope not.

Because you do know walden is
a suspect in an attempted murder

of a hotel owner in brookfield.

I read about that but I didn't
know it was walden.

Bill and the mounties
in brookfield asked me

not to use walden's name

because they didn't have
the evidence to charge him

but they seemed quite certain
it was him.

Elizabeth, we don't know
what this man is capable of.

There's just so much
at stake here.

As your friend,
and off the record.

It's about the coal mine.

-Ned.
-Yes.

Is mei back there?

No, more than likely she's over
at the queen of hearts

in her room getting ready
to leave.

Where is she going?

Nathan, I assumed you knew.

She's- she's heading back
to chicago.

Were you not gonna say goodbye?

Of course.

I only found out this morning

and I've been rushing around
ever since.

You found out what?

Geoffrey's pursuing the false
charge against me

so I'm required to appear
in the court of jurisdiction...
Back in chicago.

Do you want me to go
with you?

You have no idea what
that means to me.

But you can't leave allie.

And I have no idea
how long I'll be.

Well, I could call
the deputy chief.

The one that bill spoke to.

I- I can make sure
that you're safe.

I'm not afraid of geoffrey
anymore.

But thank you for caring.

You know, on the day I arrived,

as I rode past you

my only regret is not
letting you catch me.

Yeah, mine, too.

Listen, mei, I um...
I owe you a lot.

For helping me.

And for helping newton.

So, I just wanna say thank you.

You're welcome.

Can I- can I walk you out?

Would you wait here?

I really don't wanna
say goodbye.

♪

thank you.

Well, at least I'm not sneaking
out of town.

-Bye.
-Bye.

-Safe travels.
-Bye.

[yelps]

oh, florence!

Oh, molly, thank goodness
you're here.

Ned's across the street.
This thing has come alive!

What do I...

Get the plug!
Get the plug!

[screams]

oh!

Florence, what happened?

This monster started
attacking me.

Oh.

Uh, will you help me clean up?

You don't have another mop?

Alright.

Oh, I just saw mei.

Oh, that poor woman.

Does faith think
she'll come back?

We've talked about it

but I doubt faith can give
an honest answer.

Why is that?

She's been rather subtle about
it but ever since his accident

I'm of the opinion that faith
is carrying a torch for nathan.

What about carson?

That relationship
was on the wane,

even before carson left.

Are you sure about this?

Take it from someone who carries
a torch of her own.

Tell me, why are you so eager
to be rid of lucas bouchard?

You could ask anyone.
Or ask him.

I haven't trusted that man
since he'd come to town.

I don't like people operating
outside of the law,

which is why I've never
liked you, no offense.

Operating inside the law

is something
completely different.

There's an artistry to it,

which is exactly what I plan
on doing here.

Being mayor means
that much to you?

Don't play dumb with me, walden.

You get your information
from the foundry

and I get mine
from the oil company,

we both know the same thing.

When those mines re-open
everyone's going to get rich.

Not everyone.
But enough of us.

Point well taken.

It's not about me being mayor,

it's about me having
complete control of this town.

But first thing's first.

And what is this?

Forfeiture case law.

It's what I'm going to use
to get you the saloon

and lucas out of town.

Now he says the eggs
are overcooked.

Well, I can't undercook them.

I'm sorry, mr. Coulter.

It's not your fault, anna.

I guess I'll just-
I'll start over.

It'll be alright.

Hey, there he is.

You know what, joseph?

I actually think I'm starting
to get the hang of this.

Lee, I appreciate you giving
me a hand here.

What? What is it?
What's wrong?

Did you co-sign our bank loan?

Uh...

I was hoping you wouldn't
find out about that.

Hoping we wouldn't find out?

Shouldn't that have been a clue
that maybe it was a bad idea?

You know, I started to think
that maybe you'd done something

when the bank called back saying
they'd changed their mind.

Why didn't you ask me?

I didn't think you'd say yes.

That should have been a clue,
too.

Rosemary said this would happen.

And that.

I know, another clue.

Lee, stop trying to help me
with that.

Joseph, I was just trying
to be your friend, that's all.

I know that you would have done
the same thing for me, too.

I would have asked you first.

[doo

well, I'm ok.

Everything's fine.

I signed the deed to the saloon
over to walden

and he thinks I've driven
out of town.

Were you followed?

No, I don't think so.

I circled around and the car's
parked out of sight.

What if this whole plan
of putting on an act for walden

to try to have him arrested
doesn't work?

I just don't see that
we have a choice.

But we're better off already.

-Oh, really?
-Mmmhmm.

Why is that?

Because I get to stay here,
out of sight, with you.

Make sure nothing happens
to you or my little buddy.

-That is better.
-It is better.

A nice quiet birthday.
Just the two of us.

Little jack:
Mama, is it morning?

Just the three of us.

Why don't you go get that boy

who is very much awake and
I'll start making us dinner?

Well, I am impressed.

Seizing property
under forfeiture

goes back to maritime law.

It was easy to force
lucas's hand.

Either he signs the deed
or he faces time in prison.

Um, mr. Wyman, your office.

[door jiggles]

why would he bother locking
the door when leaving town?

I don't know. Maybe
we can break the glass-

that's not necessary.

I can wait to call a locksmith
in the morning.

Ok.

May I help you?

I hope you're not
the new maitre d'.

Perhaps you'd like
to step outside.

Perhaps later.

Constable.

How is your evening?

Is lucas around?

Lucas left town
late this afternoon.

And the queen of hearts
is under new ownership.

[laughs]

you can't be serious.

Things happen fast
around here these days.

And you're just ok with this?

Nathan, I can't stand in the way
of commerce.

Bill, he's gonna be back.
You know that, right?

Maybe.

But not as owner
of this saloon.

Have a good evening, constable.

Now it's my turn,

given that you're in
the afterglow of all this.

I told you that I wanted

something substantial
for myself.

I want lucas's share
of the oil company.

And if you want in

you're gonna have to come up
with some upfront capital.

Some good faith money.

Shall we?

What's the matter, pop?
Not hungry?

No, coop, I guess not.

These are good leftovers.

You don't miss
your mama's cooking?

I like your cooking, too.

Judge avery made the potatoes,
mr. Coulter made the ham.

I'm not quite certain
who made the snap peas.

Lots of people helped out, huh?

We have some very good friends.

Mmmhmm.

You don't suppose you ever see
yourself coming back to church?

Maybe.

I like trying to be my own boss
for a while.

Your own boss, huh?

I heard you say that
to mom once.

Is that how you see god?
The big boss?

Pretty much.

You don't think you're getting
too big for your britches, son?

I'll always love you.

These are the kind of questions
you have to ask yourself.

Ok, pop.

I'll try.

Good.

How about some dessert?

-Oh yeah.
-Ok.

Are you staying here?

Just for tonight.

Just for tonight?

Yes, while we play
hide and seek.

Which is why we have
all the lights down low

and we're being very,
very quiet.

I'm going to go upstairs

and get you a pillow and
a blanket for the couch.

Can he sleep in my room?

I don't think so.

You two would keep each other up
all night

and you need your sleep.

[laughing]

hey buddy, do you want
to help me with a surprise?

For mom? Ok.

Well, alright.
Let's go. Come here.

[phone ringing]

hello?

Yes.

Mr. Gilchrist, hello.

Yes, it was nice meeting you,
too, when I was down there.

Uh, mr. Gilchrist...

Arthur.

Sir, are you planning
a trip here?

Oh, no. Just wanting to see
if I can help.

Well, great.
I'll see you then.

Mmmhmm.

[sighs]

little jack: ...Wearing a cape.

Lucas: It's a surprise for mom.

Little jack: I wanna
surprise her.

Lucas: You may reveal yourself.

[gasps]

ready?

♪ happy birthday to you, ♪

♪ happy birthday to you, ♪

♪ happy birthday dear mama, ♪

♪ happy birthday to you. ♪

[laughs]

[laughs]

thank you.

Blow out the candle.

Oh, ok.

[laughs]

can we eat it now?

Yes, we can. Why don't you
have a bite?

Go ahead.

Is it good?

Yummy.

[laughs]

name earlier,

I know arthur gilchrist.

He's an investor
in the oil company.

Hmm.

And he's here to talk to us
about the newspaper.

What a coincidence.

Well, not really.

No, sweetheart,
it is a coincidence.

-I suppose it is.
-Mmm.

As a matter of fact.

Coincidence or not,

I wish I could steer clear
of him when he arrives.

Fiona, since I hardly even
got started

on elizabeth's day of beauty,

would it be ok if we
came by tomorrow?

Of course, but will she be
in any kind of shape?

What woman- well,
I suppose elizabeth,

but even she could be convinced

to resume her day of
primping and pampering.

Sweetheart, maybe fiona
has a point.

About elizabeth.

-Because of lucas.
-Since he left town.

-Yes.
-Mm.

Of course, what was I thinking?
Maybe I wasn't thinking.

Or I was thinking
that she would uh,

benefit from getting out.

Your beauty salon
is so relaxing.

Whatever you say.

-What was that?
-I know, I know.

I just keep forgetting that
we're not supposed to let on

that we know what's happening
with the mines.

Oh, for goodness sake.
It is a lot to keep track of.

How long do you think
it'll take bill avery

to outwit wyman walden?

Because I can't keep this up
much longer.

I don't know. I hope
he hurries, too.

But even if we do get
rid of walden

we still have to deal with
the problem of the investors

wanting to re-open the mines.

You know what I think
about gilchrist?

While he is here to inquire
about our little newspaper,

I think he is also here
to help smith

make sure that the mines
get re-opened.

Now I'm starting to forget
who's where,

how's when and what's what.

I don't know.

[laughs]

I think the bigger problem is
that you're beginning

to sound an awful lot
like me.

Good lord, I hope not.

Ah, judge avery.

You can stop by the mercantile
whenever you wish

and pick up your wet clothes.

And are we to understand
that you brokered the deal

between walden and lucas?

I will, and I did.

I don't care how it looks.

I can't believe bill's
a part of all this.

Well, I'm sorry.
I just can't.

Is there something you want,
julius?

I'm just here to assist.
Mr. Walden's orders.

You always do what he says.

Sir, is there anything
I can do to help?

Hi.

Perhaps another time.

I look forward to it.

-You're out late.
-Oh, house calls.

I heard lucas is selling
the queen of hearts.

That's crazy.

Yeah, that's one word for it.

How are you?

With mei leaving.

Uh, well, right now

I'm just more concerned
for her safety, really.

Mmm.

She'll be back.

Thanks.

Ah, you can relate.

I guess it was different for you
when carson left town.

You were ready to get married.

Carson might have been ready but
you are assuming my response.

You didn't wanna get married?

I wasn't ready.
I'm still not ready.

I can tell you, it is not on the
top of my to-do list right now.

[laughs]

that is the first time
I've heard somebody

refer to marriage as being
on a to-do list.

Care to discuss that over a dish
of ice cream?

I think we're out of luck.

Not when you have the keys.

[laughs]

whenever there was a
thunderstorm

my sisters and I would race
down the hall

and jump into our
parents' bed.

[laughs]

-all five of you?
-Mmmhmm.

Sounds fairly crowded.

Oh, it was.

And made even more so
by our two bull mastiffs

who were right there with us.

Oh.

That sounds like a lot of fun.

Lucas, as nice as it is
having you here,

what if this plan of bill's
goes wrong?

We'll have to cross that bridge
if we come to it.

But either way
I'm gonna be here

to make sure nothing happens
to you or jack.

I know you will.

Tell me more about growing up.

You tell me.

No.

[laughs]

you must have at least some
of the same kind of memories.

Well, when it came to that kind
of family time,

once I went to bed for the night

I was expected to keep myself
busy until morning.

I would read until late.

Oh.

It's fine.

Someday I hope we might have

the kind of life you've
always wanted.

This is the kind of life
I've always wanted.

Would you please carry jack
to bed

while I make up the couch
for you?

I'd love to.

Oh, hey.

Elizabeth: Jack! Jack!

Don't wake your buddy!

[groans]

hi.

Lucas, are you alright?

Yes, I'm fine.

[giggling]

[squeals]

say you're sorry.

Sorry, bud.

That's alright.

I know you wouldn't try
and hurt me, would you?

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

Pop?

Morning, son.

Come out here and join me.

Did you sleep alright?

Uh-huh.

When do mom and angela
get back?

Mmm.

Not too much longer.

You miss 'em.

Kind of, yeah.

Can we go fishing?

Oh, that would be nice,
but we have work.

What kind of work?

At the café.

Don't you and mama own it now?

Yeah, part of it. Why?

Then you're the bosses.

Yes, but even so,
there's still work to do.

Sometimes even more.

Still think you want to be
your own boss?

We'll see.

[chuckles]

you almost had me fooled.

And rosemary thinks she can act.

Why go through this charade
of selling walden the saloon?

I had to somehow try to get
his trust.

And do you think it worked?

Here they come.

We're about to find out.

Let's hope he brought
the money.

[engine rumbling]

well, that didn't take long.

As you might imagine,

folks don't keep me waiting
at the bank.

Shall we head inside?

Drop the briefcase.

Hands up, spurlock.

[carriages speed past]

[gun shot]

don't do it!

Well...

There's that gun that you said
that you lost.

That'll make the attempted
murder case

and all the other charges
against you so much easier.

[cocks gun]

[gun shot]

[gun shot]

[groaning]

get out of the car.

If you can believe it,

I'm actually starting to run out
of adjectives

to describe this
turn of events.

That is how exciting it was.

Huh! What a story!

Front page, of course.

Not to mention an exclusive

that will be picked up
all over the area.

I think I'll enjoy reading
about this

far more than I would have
seeing it.

It was rather exhilarating.

Definitely not something I'll be
forgetting any time soon.

I'm just glad no one got hurt.

Yes, absolutely.

Judge bill avery assures
the community

that the case against walden,

including charges of fraud
and attempted murder, is...

To quote the esteemed avery
"air tight".

Bill's pretty confident
that he can get money back

for any hope valley residents
who sold to walden under duress.

I will enjoy reading this.

Well, you won't have
to wait long.

Lee, would you mind
proofreading it?

I was typing so fast I'm not
sure I got it all down.

You know, it's kinda like a-
like a mystery novel.

All the work that went
into capturing walden?

And bill, bill did something
very clever.

When he first confiscated
walden's gun

he filed a little notch into
the top of the firing pin

which, in essence,
acted as a fingerprint.

And it was a perfect match,
so he was able to tie the gun

to the bullet casing found
by the mountie in brookfield.

That is very impressive.

-Lee.
-What?

Proofread.

Proofread. Right.

I'm sorry. Proofreading.

What do you think they're saying
out there?

None of them looks very happy.

Well, whatever the story is,

you can read all about it
in the valley voice.

And, of course, you know

how bill always enjoys
a little good ink.

Walden said that you kept
records of everything.

Bill, I don't know what
you're talking about.

I need to know what walden's-

I want you to come clean
with me, lucas!

Fellas!

Let's take it down a notch,
alright?

Yeah.

Listen, bill, I find this ironic
that I'm defending lucas here,

but why would he show walden a
bunch of illegal gambling books

of some folks in louisiana?

I can only imagine that he was
trying to gain walden's trust

just like I had been doing.

Lucas.

Listen, the only way
to clear this up

is to look for the ledgers.

Walden said you kept them
hidden in your office.

It's locked.

-Everything alright?
-Not quite.

Now, tell me about this
french-speaking contact

you have at the treasury.

Jeanette aucoin.

We've been friends since my days
in new orleans.

It's true.

Lucas told me about miss aucoin.
What is going on?

Well, walden has told bill

that I wasn't actually
working with him.

In fact, I was working
with folks from louisiana,

and I've kept records of all
these illegal activities

hidden in my office.

And you believe walden?

I'm simply trying to build
a case against walden.

Now, how do I get a hold of
this miss aucoin?

I don't know, bill.

I haven't been able to reach her

since I initially contacted her
about walden.

Bill.

The books walden told you about.

[exhales]

right where he said they'd be.
