Hey, good morning.

You guys, can you come and
sit over here for me, please?

Come on. Sit down.

Dad, what is all this?

Look, I realize it was upsetting,
what happened last night.

So I pulled a few things out
of Pop-Pop's garage

just in case of an emergency.

Like if we're home-invaded

and we're victims of
a heinous act of violence?

What's a "heinous act of violence"?

It's-It's nothing, all right.

This is purely precautionary.

All right? It's nothing to worry about.

No, yeah, of course.

I mean, you got drunk,
got into a fistfight, got a concussion,

had a public meltdown, and...

Hilde got her bike set on fire.

Everything's amazing.

Look, I'm just saying we
need to be prepared. Okay?

Okay.

Okay, we got Maglites, we got
a baseball bat, fire extinguisher,

uh, bear spray, crowbars,

various other equipment,
and, uh, an air horn.

We wouldn't need any of this stuff
if I hadn't started the paper here.

Oh, that finally sunk in, Sherlock?

Maybe I should stop writing.

- No.
- Yes.

N-No. Absolutely not. No.

No, that's exactly
what these people want.

No, what we need to do is
we need to be prepared,

and we need to be alert. Okay?

Guys, listen to me. Like...

some fear is... is good fear.

Yeah, it tells you when it's
time to put up your guard.

People are always gonna tell
you that you're overreacting,

that you don't know what you’re
talking about, and it's worse for girls.

Right? So you gotta-gotta
think with your gut.

- You understand?
- Yeah.

Okay. And if someone like Frank Briggs

shows up here when we're not home...

Yeah. Yeah, I know about that.

So next time, you gotta tell us, okay?

I feel like I should ask about that,

but I also feel like
it's gonna ruin my day.

So can I just pretend I didn't see it?

Yeah. Yeah, totally.

Are you going back to work?

No. Yes. Uh, sort of.
I have... I have a meeting.

Mmm.

Go get 'em, counselor.

Hey, can you make sure
that Ginny doesn’t play

with the fire extinguisher? Thanks.

Oh.

Ginny, no. Come on. Don't touch that.

Okay. Self-defense.

Hey, I heard about the fire.
Are you okay?

You Liskos are so... broken.

Yeah, 'cause the Fife family seems
so uncomplicated and delightful.

Yeah, well, at least
we're not a bunch of losers.

You know the whole bitchy girl thing,
it's just a little on the nose.

You ever think about, you know,

saying something nice for once,
just to keep people on their toes?

Let's go.

- I'll be fine.
- Okay.

Jeez.

Hey, hey, it's gonna be okay.
It's okay, it's okay.

All right. Don't let it get to you.

Mr. Secretary, Sam Gillis is not
requesting a reward for good behavior

or a... truncated...

My God.

Ah, come on.

Mr. Secretary... Okay.

Mr. Secretary, Sam Gillis is not
requesting a reward for good behavior

or a shorter criminal sentence,

but an authorized absence from prison

under escort of a state
correctional officer.

- Yeah, all right.
- Therefore, I urge you to...

Wait. What?

That's a yes. My office will grant
inmate 35291 the 48-hour furlough.

Great. Thank you.

Your daughter,
she's-she's quite the little reporter.

Yes, she is.

That exposé she wrote,
everyone's talking about it,

inside the prison, out in the world.

Well, it's big news.

I mean, a prison official
abused an inmate for years,

extorted his sister for prescription
drugs, and then killed her.

Reforms are being implemented.

I feel like there's a reason
you’re not signing that.

I want to give Sam Gillis a
furlough for his sister's funeral.

I really do.

But I need you to convince
him of something first.

I need your permission
slips by tomorrow.

I'm not kidding.

As you know, I have no sense of humor.

If you don't give me your
signed permission slips,

- you will not be able to go on the trip.
- Check it.

We got 20,000 views on that website

where we posted the Richie Fife video.

In one night.

It went viral.

We're like celebrities.

I don't know if I can
handle the pressure of fame.

I hope I don't crack.

Ms. Parker, sorry to interrupt.

I need Hilde Lisko to come with me.

Wow.

She's such a freak.

Someone would like to speak with you.

Have a seat, Hilde.

It's gonna affect the rest of your life.

Hey.

Hey.

Why are we bringing him in?

Drug rap.

We'll probably let him go.

Have you seen it?

The video?

Frank, I know where you're
going with this, and you can't.

You just can't let these
things creep into your head.

Maybe it's just hard
for you to remember.

It's not.

Well, it is for me.

Well, I wouldn't say that to
anyone else if I were you.

I need to know. Did you...

Did you tell me to say
that I saw Sam's van?

Frank. You saw Sam Gillis' van.

I know you're scared, Frankie.

But you gotta be brave.

You gotta help us find
the guy who did this.

Now... is that the van that took Richie?

Maybe.

Do you know who owns that van?

Sam Gillis.

That's right, Frankie. Sam Gillis.

And you... know a few things about him.

What do you mean?

Well, like he's a little bit
of a creep, right?

What do most kids in town call him?
A weirdo?

Well, they say he likes to spend
his time hanging around younger boys

like you and Richie.

He bought you boys a beer, didn't he?

Yeah.

Well, most grown-ups don't do that.
Buy beer for kids.

Now, it may have felt normal,
but it's not.

He's not normal.

And no one should be protecting him.

We need to be protecting
kids like you and Richie.

Make sense, son?

Okay. So, take a breath.

Look at the photo.
Is that the van that took Richie?

I think so.

What did I do?

Nothing, sweetie. It's okay.

It's just that there can't be
any doubt or Gillis goes free.

And he can do it again to any other kid.

Do you want that to happen?

Don't push him so hard.

All right.

It... It was Sam's van.

You sure about that, Frankie?

Yeah, I didn't see his face,
but I heard his voice.

Whose?

Sam Gillis'.

He... He took Richie, and then
he looked at us and said, "Run."

And then he slammed the door...

Okay, son. You did good, Frank.

I want you to look
at this license plate.

I wanna see if you can remember
any of the numbers on it.

Yeah, Dad.
I remember the last three here.

"L-G-E."

All right, son. Good.

Hey. It's what you saw.

Then I saw it wrong.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Gillis could've taken those plates off.

And anyone, goddamn anyone
could've doctored that video.

Now, what we know is that
Sam Gillis killed that boy.

I'll come back later.

No, it's no problem, Trip.

Frank was just leaving.

Sorry, Mayor,
but I can't take the video down.

Can't or won't?

Technically,
according to the First Amendment...

I know the damn Constitution.

Mayor, please.

Her parents trusted me
to let you speak to her.

All right. I apologize.

I have been under
a lot of stress lately.

You know, Hilde,
this isn't just a story for Mayor Fife.

It's his son on that video.

This was very traumatic.

For all of us. For this whole town.

I'm really sorry for your loss, Mayor.

I really am.

But I think we both want the same thing,

for the person who took
Richie to end up behind bars.

And you don't think Gillis did it?

No. Do you?

This is crazy, having
this conversation with a child.

I know.

I am almost getting used to it. Almost.

Sir, I know I might be a kid,

but I uncovered the first lead
about your son's murder in 30 years.

What I wanna know is how
Penny Gillis got that VHS tape

and where the hell was it when
we were looking for Richie?

Why don't you ask your
friend Sheriff Briggs?

Well, he assured me he never saw it.

Yeah. No kidding.

I don't like your tone, young lady.

You have no idea
what you're getting into.

I feel like being called a young
lady should be a compliment,

but it never sounds like it is.

Why would the sheriff admit to
losing a crucial piece of evidence,

especially before an election?

Sheriff Briggs will never listen to me.

But he has to listen to you.

So if you could just
reopen the investigation...

This thing...

we put it away, kid.

It was done.

But what if it was done wrong?

What if the person who murdered
Richie is still out there?

What if he's walking the streets
of Erie Harbor right now?

Don't take it. Don't take the deal, Sam.

It's Penny's funeral.

I have to be there.

I understand, but what they
are asking you to sign, it's...

It's the only way I can
say goodbye to her.

They want you to waive
any charges of abuse

and not hold the prison
responsible in any way.

If that's what I have to do.

They still get the guy on murder, right?

- Yes, but...
- So he'll pay for what he did?

But the prison won't.

And I mean pay, literally.

If we win our case against them,

even if we settle, I could get you

enough money to get
you back on your feet

when you get out of here.

I have to say goodbye to Penny.

Sam.

Look, I-I know you're in pain,
but this isn't just about you.

If you waive your
right to sue the prison...

you make it that much
harder for all the other guys

in here who have been abused.

It'll just keep happening.

You can't put that on me.

It's not fair.

I wish I didn't have to...

but what they're asking you
to sign is totally unethical.

I think you should fight it.

We should fight it.

Yeah?

And how long is that gonna take?

'Cause Penny...

my baby sister...

we're burying her ashes tomorrow.

Yup!

- What the hell you doing, Matty?
- Yeah, what does it look like?

Electrocuting yourself.

Well, it turns out
we need extra security.

You want some help with that?

Did you burn Richie's bike last night?

Yeah. Yeah, and I got off on it too.

No, man, I didn't burn his bike.
I'm here to figure out who did.

Report said it happened after midnight?

Wait, Holmes County sent you?

You're the investigator? God.

What do you want me to say, Matt?

Oh, my God.

You gotta do the black wires first.

All at once. Then the green,
then the red.

What has city living done to you, man?

Yeah, well, I know
what living here has done to you.

It's a little early, don't you think?

Yeah, it's been a rough week.

Hey.

No, I'm on duty.

Oh, hey, Daddy's gonna get mad at you?

I do so solemnly swear...

I do so solemnly swear...

... that I will not,
cannot, shall not...

... that I will not,
cannot, shall not...

... speak of the consumption
of this alcohol to anyone,

or I will acquire a venereal disease.

What's a venereal disease?

You don't wanna know.

Yeah, I think I'm buzzed.

- From like, what? Two sips?
- Yeah.

What the hell is this thing?

Wait.

Have you not seen the movie?

No. My parents don't allow me
to watch R-rated movies, so...

God, it's PG, nerd.

It's a flux capacitor.

It's a machine that allows you
to travel through time.

Cool.

You turn the time circuits on.
Pick your year of choice.

Then drive 88 miles an hour,

while harnessing 1.21 gigawatts of power

from a plutonium-powered
nuclear reactor.

It's either that,
or you gotta know exactly when

and where lightning will strike,
which is a pain in the ass.

Can I have another sip of that beer?

Whoa.

Yeah, Gillis was a weirdo.

Yeah, maybe. But he's not a criminal.

Yeah, I don't know about that.

His dad went crazy,
committed suicide in that plane.

His mom went way off the rails.
I mean, that whole family...

That whole family was
railroaded by this town.

Yeah, all of them.

You know, the only thing
that links Sam to that crime was

your testimony and a whole bunch
of circumstantial evidence.

That's not what the jury thought.

Yeah, no shit.

They just wanted what the rest
of Holmes County wanted.

Yeah, justice.

No, to stop worrying about
what might happen to their kid.

Why do you hate us so much, Matty?

Why do you look down your nose at us?

I don't.

Yeah, you kinda do.

Look, I just... I just hate
what this town does to people.

You know, what it did to the Gillises?

Come on. Like,
Mr. Gillis was mentally ill.

And Sam? Come on, man.
He w... He wasn't a monster.

He looked out for Richie and our crew.
He was like a friend.

Let me ask you something.

Say some 18-year-old misfit offers

Izzy a beer in the back
of his panel van.

You good with that?

Yeah. I didn't think so.

What is this? Blood?

What?

There's more.

What?

Look, I'm sorry. I just...
I just need to...

I just need to ask you again.

Are you sure?

Hm? Are you absolutely sure you
never saw that tape until yesterday?

Jack, I told you. No.

Are you lying to me, Frank?

Have you been drinking?

I had some whiskey earlier.

Look, I am sorry you
gotta go through this again.

But the monster who did this,
we put him in prison for life.

Are you sure about that, Frank?

Are you sure that you didn't...

That the way this town

felt about Sam and the Yakama community,

didn't have anything to do
with the way things played out?

Is your daughter marrying a black man

making you see smoke
where there's no fire?

His race had nothing to do with it.

Can you imagine how this...

What this is like for me?

Seeing my son taken
in that van like that.

Listen...

you gotta take a step back.

Getting drunk isn't
gonna do you any good.

It never did.

And listening to these Liskos

and all the crazy stories
about new evidence?

That's not gonna help either.

- But you know what is gonna help?
- I don't know.

Moving forward with your life, Jack.

Focusing on the coming election.

The only reason I got
elected in the first place

is that people felt sorry for me.

- No.
- Dead kid's dad.

Let's give him a sympathy vote.

- No!
- Hi.

Hi, hon. Go back to your room.
We-We need some privacy here.

Everything okay?

Yeah, everything's fine,
sweetie. Thank you.

Hey.

Hey, look at me.

You need to move on, Jack.

Now, we barely survived
losing mining and logging.

And now people are gonna be talking

like there's a killer running loose?

Families fleeing like
it's 1988 all over again.

Be a leader.

Calm people down.

Show them that Erie Harbor is
a good place to raise a family.

Can you do that?

You owe it to your boy.

What's the matter?

What, you don't like it?

I... No, it's red.

Red's your favorite.

No, Dad, red's your favorite.

Mine's... green.

It's okay, it's okay. Um...

It's... I mean, it's great, Dad.
Thank you. I love it.

It's the most expensive
bike in the shop.

Does it come in green, Syl?

Uh, sorry, no. Just the red.

Or sky blue.

You could get a cheaper one.

I have an idea.

How about no present?
What do you think about that?

Thank you so much. Have a great day.

You sound super perky when
you talk to customers.

No, I don't.

Wait. Do I?

Yeah, but I like it. It's very friendly.

It's just... not the guy
that I thought I was dating.

Oh, we're dating? That's official?

What? No! I'm...

- Sorry! No, it's okay.
- It's just... I'm sorry.

- I didn't mean...
- No, it's okay. It's just...

I mean, I guess we're not not dating.

So we are dating?

Apologies for interrupting your
sexy time, but we need assistance.

Oh, my God, am I dead yet?
Please tell me I'm dead.

- What are you guys doing here?
- Um, my bike burned.

She's in the market for
something budget-friendly,

fashionable and performance-driven.

And, oh, can it have a bell?

The Chronicle's revenue
is about 45 bucks

minus 50% for overhead.

What can we get with $22 and 74 cents?

You know what? I may have
something that you can borrow.

Let me check.

Something's been bugging me.

People keep saying that the
abduction video proves nothing.

That Sam could have removed the
plates before he abducted Richie.

- Is that what you think he did?
- No.

But I don't have any way of proving it.

We don't need to.

We just have to prove that Sam's van

wasn't the same van
that was in the video.

But how are we supposed to find it?

- It's from the '80s.
- It's, like, prehistoric.

We could call the DMV.
Or search police auction records.

Or you could just head
over to Sally's Salvage.

It's the junkyard.

Every old beater ends up there.

I'd thank you in the paper,
but it might be a conflict of interest.

Come on, guys. Let's go.

Sally's not gonna let kids
just walk onto her lot.

That place is dangerous.

We'll figure something out.

Thanks.

Whoa.

That's a lot of dry blood.

Garibaldi!

Good boy.

Is that Kim's dad?

Is that you, Lisko?

Mr. Collins?

That's right.

Hey, how are ya?

Like you give a shit.

You come back to Erie Harbor
to ruin everyone's life again?

This dog belong to you?

He's more wolf than dog.

Yeah, you know my kids play around here.

It's not like I let him loose.
That could get litigious.

Yeah, hicks like us,
we know city words too, hotshot.

Like causation.
Isn't that what it's called, Frank?

Yeah, Roger...

Penny's murder happening
at the exact same time

the Liskos move back to town.

Yeah, one had nothing
to do with the other.

Oh, yeah. Sure, sure.

And there's no government plot

to poison the American
water supply with fluoride,

red dye number 40, PCB's,
rBGH's and diet cola either, right?

Roger, you wouldn't happen
to know anything

about the Lisko shed
being set on fire, would ya?

Yeah, I saw that light
from my porch last night.

Then Garibaldi came home
with his snout all bloodied.

So I figured he must have caught
the guy in the act.

And you didn't think a follow-up
call to the authorities was in order?

Hey!

Garibaldi! Come back here!

Garibaldi!

Well, let's keep moving.

Man, Kim's dad got weird.

Look how amazing
it looks with your bracelet.

Whoa. Look at this place.

The court documents said the
van was a blue 1982 GMC Vandura.

So... where do we even start?

It's gotta be around here somewhere.

Come on, guys.

Hey, what the hell is
going on with Kim's dad?

Well, he went kind of crazy.

I don't know if it was after her
mom split or if he went crazy after.

No, Kim never mentioned anything.

She wouldn't.

You left her.

You think after 25 years,

she's gonna open up about
her folks' marriage or

her mentally ill dad?

I'm not saying you were
wrong to leave, but...

All right, kind of feels like
that's exactly what you're saying.

Wait, wait.

Is that my dad?

Oh, Jesus.

Hold up.

Guys, there it is.

You sure that's it?

Yeah.

What's that?

I think we need to move.

Dad!

- Sylvester!
- Dad!

- Syl!
- Goddamn it. Dad!

I might know where he's going.

There's a lake a half mile up.
He likes to fish.

Syl!

Yeah, I heard about your fishing trips.

He made you into the son he never had.

What are you trying to say, Frank?

I don't know. I don't know what I saw.

I'm pretty sure Matty was right.

My dad just kept
saying that I saw it. So...

I thought I did.

That might have been why he
started to look into the case.

That's what he was trying to tell me.

There he is. Come on.

Wait, something's different.

What do you mean?

That's definitely not
the van that took Richie.

How do you know?

The gas cap's on the wrong side.

So the van in the video wasn't Gillis'.

Sam didn't take Richie.

My dad was right.
The killer is still out there somewhere.

Yeah. That's the one.

Why is Sheriff Briggs here?

I want you to crush that thing.

Here.

All right.

What are they doing?

Oh, no! Izzy has my camera.

Oh, my God.

What?

Dad?

Dad.

No.

It's okay. It's Matt.

Daddy, it's Matt. Okay?

I know. It's okay. It's okay.

You two! Do not move!

- Run!
- Run! Come on!

Hey! Sheriff!

Dad.

Dad, I don't understand.

Look, I'm not mad.

It's just, why did you burn
Hilde's bike? Huh?

You know he's not gonna answer you.

Yeah, I know. And I keep trying anyway.

You know, it makes me wonder which
one of us is clinging onto sanity.

It was cursed.

I didn't want Hilde riding it.
I didn't want anyone riding it.

What do you mean? What was cursed?

It was me.

What was you?

It was my fault.

I was the one who gave it to him.

How about no present?
What do you think about that?

I may have a bike for you.

It's older,
but it should still be a good ride.

You know, sometimes dads...

we don't get it right.

How much does this cost?

For you, kiddo, no charge.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

I read about what you
did at the meeting, Matty.

You gotta stop.

They're gonna try and run
you outta town again.

Tell him, Frankie.

Dad, I found it.

I opened the safe.

Do you believe me?

You believe me. I know you do.

So, I don't understand.
Why do you want me to stop?

Come on. I'm sorry.

I really am. I'm so sorry.

You know,
I'm sorry for being out of touch

and sorry for never going
fishing with you or calling you.

I'm even sorry that I wouldn't stop
talking about Richie back then.

I...

Could you just say
you believe me, please?

If it makes you feel any better...

my relationship with my father is worse.

Yeah.

It was a human error.

A day nurse propped a back door
open on a smoke break.

Apparently, Sylvester
waited for him to turn his back.

It's, uh, that easy, huh?

This has happened twice in,
like, a week.

Yes, and we are sorry.

Look, we fired the nurse, and we
plan on implementing new protocols.

It'll never happen again.

Well, that's what you said last time.

Look, I want my father's
release paperwork.

And we'll be back tomorrow to sign it.

Mr. Lisko, your father has
specific medical needs.

All due respect, you haven't
been here long enough to...

You're not equipped to handle his care.

Look.

I'm his goddamn son. All right?

And that is what he needs right now.

Come on, Dad. We're going home.

I don't know how it
works back in New York.

Maybe little girls can make
all the trouble they want

without anybody saying anything.

But here...

you get taken away from your parents.

- Ah, Ms. Lisko.
- It's Jensen.

I'm Sheriff Briggs.

I know who you are.

Are you okay? Okay.

Hilde and some of her friends

were trespassing in an industrial
area with heavy machinery.

She could've been seriously injured.

Isn't that right, Hilde?

Well, anyway. No charges this time,

but please make it clear
to your daughter that, uh,

private property, trespassing,

these are things we take
seriously in Erie Harbor.

Thank you, Sheriff.
I will make sure to talk to her.

Come on.

You okay, honey?

That must've been scary today.

Oh, honey. I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to...

Sorry. Hey, honey, we don't...

No, we don't have to talk about it
right now if it's too hard, okay?

It's not about Sheriff Briggs.

I lost the only evidence that
proves Sam Gillis is innocent.

And we have no proof.

We can't help Dad or fix our family.

Honey. Hilde.

It's okay. Listen to me.

It is not your job to fix Daddy.

That is... That is on him.

But... he's not doing anything.

It's like he's... he's just stuck.

I know. I know.

But our family, we...

we work out our problems together.

Okay?

How 'bout that?

- Mom.
- Yeah?

Is Dad gonna be okay?

I don't know.

I hope so.

Hey, guys.

This is, uh, Kathryn.
Frank Briggs' sister.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You know, Hilde,

Kathryn walked all the way over
here because she read your paper.

And she's got something to tell you

I think you're gonna wanna hear.

Here, come on. Sit down.

A memory haunts the town of Erie Harbor.

The memory of Richie Fife's murder.

Important people,

like our sheriff, Frank Briggs Sr.,
have tried to erase him.

In 1988, soon after
the conviction of Sam Gillis,

Erie Harbor resident Al Wergeles,
aka Birdman,

brought Sheriff Briggs a videotape
of Richie Fife's abduction.

According to his daughter, Kathryn,

Sheriff Briggs watched this
tape and threw it away.

Kathryn brought it to her mom,
Annemarie Briggs,

who kept it for decades

and never had the courage
to do what was right.

That is until last year,

when Annemarie was battling cancer.

She gave the tape to Penny Gillis.

Annemarie did not want
to leave this world

knowing that her husband had
put an innocent man in prison.

Penny's last wish.

To be buried in the middle of town
so people can't avoid her anymore.

I miss her.

I know.

I'm sorry, Ms. Jensen.

I had to do it.

For Penny.

- And for me.
- I understand.

Hey, Sam.

I'm so sorry.

For years, I didn't have
people on my side.

But I had Penny.

She protected me.

Always.

Even though I couldn't protect her.

She said she wanted a
tree planted in her name.

And with stones in the Yakama tradition.

This was her favorite kind of tree.

We used to play under one just
like it when we were kids.

After what happened in this town...

nobody would look Penny in the eye.

And eventually...

nobody would look at her at all.

With this tree...

I hope everyone can see...

how beautiful she was.

How beautiful she is.

Hang up.

I gotta call you back.

- In your office. Let's talk.
- No, no.

No more chats, Dad. It's over.
Destroying evidence?

- Kathryn is confused.
- I'm talking about the Gillis van.

- There's no proof of any of that.
- You always have an answer.

How 'bout this?

I'm running against you
for sheriff of Holmes County.

You're done here.
