00:00I give him two months.
00:02You two make a great team.
00:03It's too bad you only have one week left together.
00:05My resignation letter.
00:06You made a mistake, Bo.
00:07I don't want to lose you.
00:08I'm still leaving.
00:09Nora.
00:10Hi.
00:11I'm so sorry.
00:12Bo didn't tell me he had a sister.
00:13Nora's not my sister.
00:14Mickey, she's my wife.
00:24January 24th, 1848.
00:27James Marshall hollered, gold!
00:30And the rush began.
00:32Rival families.
00:33Conflicting claims.
00:34Yes, sirree.
00:35The thirst for gold made people do crazy things.
00:37Sometimes, it even got bloody.
00:39Not everyone who discovered gold lived to tell about it.
00:42Like that guy?
00:47Is that an actor?
00:57Your wife.
01:08Of course.
01:09Your wife.
01:12Nora.
01:13Yeah?
01:14Nice to meet you.
01:15You too.
01:17So, you live in Oakland?
01:19I do.
01:20Yeah.
01:21My pediatric nurse.
01:22I just took a few days off to help Nate pack up.
01:24Right.
01:25Nate.
01:27Which is totally what spouses do.
01:32I'm gonna let you two, uh, I have to go.
01:34Well, uh, this is your office, Mickey's.
01:37Maybe we should...
01:38Right.
01:39I'm gonna...
01:40And, uh...
01:42You want this.
01:46Uh, which reminds me, uh, you should schedule your exit interview.
01:49Nate.
01:50Nice to meet you, Nora.
01:51You guys.
01:52Boone is freaking married.
01:53What?
01:54I am in a state of shock.
01:55Is she nice?
01:56Is she hot?
01:57Yes.
01:58Total smoke show.
01:59Total smoke show.
02:00More to the point.
02:01How has he worked here for two years and hadn't said anything?
02:02It's Boone.
02:03He's even less of a sharer than you.
02:04I mean, how well do any of us even know him?
02:05We could pull his personnel file.
02:06That would be completely improper.
02:07We are not doing that.
02:08Suit it yourself.
02:09I mean, he's already got one foot out the door.
02:10Oh, speaking of which, we're throwing him a goodbye party tonight at your house.
02:11My house?
02:12Well, my place is too small and we're not doing lunchtime cupcakes at the XO.
02:13It's Boone.
02:14I'm not doing lunchtime cupcakes at the XO.
02:15It's Boone.
02:16I am in a state of shock.
02:17I am in a state of shock.
02:18Is she nice?
02:19Is she hot?
02:20Yes.
02:21Total smoke show.
02:22More to the point.
02:23How has he worked here for two years and hadn't said anything?
02:24I mean, he's already got one foot out the door.
02:25Oh, speaking of which, we're throwing him a goodbye party tonight at your house.
02:29My house?
02:30Well, my place is too small and we're not doing lunchtime cupcakes at the XO.
02:33It's Boone.
02:35Are you still ducking, Travis?
02:37Wait, what's going on with you and Travis?
02:38It's nothing.
02:39It's just...
02:40Travis couldn't deal with seeing Cassidy arrest Skye
02:42and Cassidy couldn't deal with Travis not dealing.
02:45Am I wrong?
02:46I just need some time to figure some stuff out.
02:49That's all.
02:50Besides, we're not talking about me and Travis.
02:52We're talking about Boone and his secret.
02:54Hey.
02:55We just got a call.
02:56A body's been found in the Eel River just past the bend.
02:59It looks like a homicide.
03:08What's your dad doing?
03:09Dad?
03:10Mickey.
03:11What are you doing here?
03:12It's Bill.
03:13What?
03:14Bill Wambach?
03:15Yeah.
03:16Somebody shot him in the back.
03:17Irv called me.
03:18I drove down.
03:19Oh, my God, Dad.
03:20I'm so sorry.
03:21The Wambachs are an old ranching family.
03:23They've been in Edgewater for over a hundred years.
03:26Show some respect!
03:28Put away your cameras!
03:29Dad!
03:30Just...
03:31Wait here.
03:32A guide and a couple of tourists dragged up his body to see if he could save them.
03:40Best of intentions, but...
03:42They trampled the crime scene.
03:43Now hope for a sheer print.
03:44Four entry wounds on the back.
03:45Look at those powder burns on his shirt.
03:49This killer was standing close.
03:50This was an execution.
03:51Hi.
03:52I'm Deputy Campbell.
03:53I got this summons, but I think it's a mistake.
03:54It's for a citation that I wrote.
03:55It's not a mistake.
03:56The defendant decided to challenge.
03:57It's a moving violation.
03:58Next, we have Mr. Lewis's case.
03:59Mr. Lewis, give us a wave if you're here.
04:00Great.
04:01And the ticketing officer, Deputy Campbell.
04:02Right here, Your Honor.
04:03Excellent.
04:04Representing Mr. Lewis, we have Mr. Dwyer.
04:05Uh, actually, I'll be taking this one, Your Honor.
04:06Mr. Fraley.
04:07I'm surprised.
04:08You're doing traffic tickets now.
04:09There's something about this case that's very nice.
04:10It's not a mistake.
04:11I'm Deputy Campbell.
04:12I'm Deputy Campbell.
04:13I got this summons, but I think it's a mistake.
04:14It's for a citation that I wrote.
04:15It's not a mistake.
04:16The defendant decided to challenge.
04:17It's a moving violation.
04:18Next, we have Mr. Lewis's case.
04:19Mr. Lewis, give us a wave if you're here.
04:20Great.
04:21And the ticketing officer, Deputy Campbell.
04:23Right here, Your Honor.
04:24Excellent.
04:25Representing Mr. Lewis, we have Mr. Dwyer.
04:27Uh, actually, I'll be taking this one, Your Honor.
04:30Mr. Fraley.
04:31I'm surprised.
04:35You're near and dear to me, Your Honor.
04:36Very well.
04:37You may proceed.
04:38Bill's truck is in the parking lot.
04:41It's being processed, but there's no houses around.
04:43No reported gunshots, so...
04:45There's no one to really canvas.
04:47All right, let's look at his business dealings,
04:48his circle of friends, and let's talk to his wife, Bernice.
04:51See if he had any enemies.
04:52Enemies?
04:53When I used to bring you and Sharon Fish in this very river,
04:56who taught you how to clean the trough?
04:58Dad.
04:59When Skye's soccer field was flooded,
05:01her team needed a place to play,
05:03who cleared off a patch in his field.
05:05Bill didn't have enemies in Edgewater.
05:07Bill was Edgewater.
05:08Bill!
05:09No!
05:10Bernice.
05:11No!
05:12Bernice.
05:13He's gone.
05:14He's gone.
05:15He's gone.
05:16You better find the son of a bitch that did this before I do.
05:20This morning, he was in the kitchen reading the box scores, pouring his coffee.
05:27And now he's gone.
05:29I'm so sorry, Bernice.
05:30I know this must seem soon, but did Bill have any enemies?
05:36Anybody who would want to hurt him?
05:37No.
05:38No enemies.
05:39About a week ago, a man came to the house asking if we were interested in selling the ranch.
05:44Bill said no.
05:45I was born on this ranch, he told the fella.
05:46And one day I'll...
05:47Anyway, the man went away.
05:48We didn't think anything more of it.
05:49And then a few days later...
05:50Bill found a bullet in his mailbox.
05:51Yeah, I got one, too.
05:52We were getting calls at all.
05:53And then a few days later...
05:54Bill found a bullet in his mailbox.
05:56Yeah, I got one, too.
05:57We were getting calls at all hours.
05:58You should think about selling.
05:59Maybe it's not safe for you here.
06:00And then they'd hang up.
06:01And then last week, the shed caught fire.
06:02Mason and Irv helped Bill put it out.
06:03But I was terrified.
06:04These cartels moving in.
06:05We didn't really want to sell it.
06:06Maybe it's the best that they're here for us.
06:07I said no.
06:08I was born on this ranch.
06:09He told the fella.
06:10And one day I'll...
06:11Anyway, the man went away.
06:12We didn't think anything more of it.
06:13And then a few days later...
06:14Bill found a bullet in his mailbox.
06:15Yeah, I got one, too.
06:16We were getting calls at all hours.
06:18You should think about selling.
06:19Maybe it's not safe for you here.
06:20And then they'd hang up.
06:21Last week, the shed caught fire.
06:22Mason and Irv helped Bill put it out, but I was terrified.
06:25There's these cartels moving in.
06:27They just want to muscle us out.
06:28It's not going to work.
06:29Bill wasn't leaving, and we're not leaving.
06:33Bernice, this man who came to your door, can you describe him for us?
06:37Well, he looked normal.
06:38Clean-shaven, eyes-odd shirt.
06:41That doesn't exactly scream cartel.
06:43Did he leave his information?
06:45Not that I know of.
06:46What, you think they carry business cards?
06:47Those people do not leave a paper trail.
06:50Now, half the growers between here and Deadwater have gotten threats.
06:54And if people are getting threats, they should be coming to us.
06:56Yes, they should be, but they won't.
07:01Stay strong.
07:03And just know we are doing everything we can to find whoever did this.
07:07So have you also been getting threats, Dad?
07:09Not yet, but you can guarantee I'll be ready if I do.
07:12Mickey, Mickey.
07:13Hey.
07:15I didn't want to say anything.
07:18I'm not even sure that I should.
07:19Mason, if you know something.
07:21It's probably nothing.
07:23Look, I feel bad even mentioning it, but Bill and Bernice have been fighting, like a lot.
07:30Eight years I've worked here, it's never been like that.
07:32Bernice wanted to sell the ranch like she really, really wanted to sell.
07:36Bill, he just couldn't hear it.
07:37He just kept saying, Edgewater's my home.
07:39Thanks, it's good you told us.
07:45We should look at Bernice.
07:47You're crazy.
07:48I think you're barking up the wrong tree.
07:49No, this is the same stuff he pulled in the sky.
07:51It's a statistical fact, okay?
07:53If a murder victim is married, the most likely culprit is the spouse.
07:57Sure, they've been together a long time, but we don't know what goes on behind closed doors or what secrets they might be keeping.
08:02Look, I agree with you.
08:03Every marriage is a black box.
08:05Some more than others.
08:07Why don't we hang back, wait for ballistics?
08:08Dad, I want you to talk to Irv.
08:10Him and Bill were tight.
08:11There may be more to these threats than he's saying.
08:13All right.
08:14I'll let you know when I find out.
08:18Your dad's a deputy now?
08:20Look, I've got to give him something to do or he's going to find something and it's not going to be good.
08:28Deputy Campbell, you said you saw my client roll through a stop sign while looking at his phone.
08:34He certainly rolled through.
08:35You had eyes on his car the whole time.
08:37My eyes weren't the problem.
08:39His were.
08:40They were glued to his phone.
08:41It just so happens he received a very important phone call.
08:46Maybe some calls shouldn't be ignored.
08:50Stop signs shouldn't be ignored either.
08:52It's against the law to ignore them, which is why I issued the citation.
08:55No one's arguing that, deputy.
08:57But my client's cell phone use was necessary to prevent harm.
09:01The call was from his child's doctor.
09:03She had critical and time-sensitive information to share with him, as you'll see in these phone records, Your Honor.
09:08Dr. Patel, this is your child's doctor.
09:13Yes, Your Honor.
09:14She was calling with test results.
09:16I was pretty concerned.
09:17I remember what that's like.
09:19I'm going to dismiss the charges.
09:22In the future, stop at the damn stop sign, Mr. Lewis.
09:25Thank you, Mr. Fraley.
09:27You too, Deputy Campbell.
09:35You don't have to get up to your neck in a murder case.
09:37You're out of here at the end of the week.
09:39Let me tell them Cassidy or Whitley.
09:41No, thanks, but I want to help you solve it up.
09:43I can stick around for a few days if I need to.
09:45Oh, yeah?
09:46What about Nora?
09:48She's going to be okay with that?
09:49Sure.
09:49Yeah, it's no big deal.
09:50All right, dude, what is the deal?
09:53We've worked together for two years.
09:55You don't mention you're married?
09:56And don't say I didn't ask.
09:57This is me asking.
10:00I don't like discussing my personal life.
10:02Boone.
10:03Aren't you the one who's always saying that we have to keep the personal and the professional separate?
10:07I believe the word firewall has been used.
10:09I...
10:11Nah.
10:12Fine.
10:13Maybe.
10:14In that case, I'll go see where we are with ballistics.
10:16Cassidy, Cassidy, wait up.
10:23This is my job, Travis.
10:24I don't appreciate you making a dame of it.
10:25How else am I supposed to talk to you?
10:27You won't take my calls.
10:28So you ambush me at work?
10:30That is deranged.
10:33Oh, God, it is deranged.
10:35I'm so sorry.
10:36Look, I know I screwed up.
10:37I know you were just doing your job when you arrested Skye.
10:40I'm over that, Travis.
10:41Not even about that anymore.
10:42Look, I have a lot on my mind.
10:46And I need time and space to figure it out.
10:49So if I'm not picking up your calls, it's because I'm not ready to talk to you.
10:52It's a stop sign.
10:54Maybe your client can explain that to you.
11:01I'm telling you, it's one of them cartels.
11:04And if we don't watch our backs, we'll be next.
11:06Yeah.
11:06Look, I don't know.
11:10I've been thinking about what Boone said in your bullet in the mailbox stuff.
11:15That reads cartel.
11:16But the guys in polo shirts showing up, knocking on doors, making formal offers on Bill's property.
11:23Come on.
11:23A wolf in yuppie clothes is still a wolf.
11:26True.
11:26And these guys are pouring in from all over.
11:28China, Bulgaria, Central America.
11:30They're armed, and they're dangerous.
11:32They're not here to be good neighbors.
11:34They're here to snatch up our land.
11:35Hell, I caught a couple of Bulgarian guys sniffing around my grow last week, and I had to chase them off with a shotgun.
11:39Really?
11:40These outsiders want to destroy everything that we built.
11:43Outsiders?
11:46That's what they called us growers when we showed up here in Edgewater.
11:49Outsiders.
11:51It was Bill, and it was ranchers like him that welcomed us in.
11:55Well, times have changed, and if we don't draw the line now, the community that we built will be gone.
12:08Oh.
12:10Bill was shot at point-blank range with .450 caliber rounds from a Desert Eagle.
12:14Statement gun.
12:15Cartel favorite.
12:17Oh, hey, come on in.
12:18Did you talk to her?
12:19Yeah.
12:19Yeah, just now.
12:20He said that some Bulgarian cartel-looking guys came by his place last week.
12:25He ran them off.
12:26His land was right next to Bill's.
12:29Bulgarian cartel-looking guys.
12:30Our murder weapon is definitely their style.
12:33Yeah.
12:33They like to hang at that MMA gym right off of Route 9.
12:35Mm-hmm.
12:36Might be worth paying them a visit.
12:37It's not the kind of place two deputies can just walk in and start asking questions.
12:41You can't, but I can.
12:42Dad, forget it.
12:43I can walk in there.
12:44Whether they shot Bill or not, these cartel guys are suspected of a dozen murders up and
12:49down the state.
12:50You're not going in there.
12:51Although.
12:52Boone.
12:52Let the man speak.
12:56Look, the Bulgarians will know Wes by reputation, and he could get in there under a false pretense
13:01and maybe try and get some information out of him.
13:02No way.
13:02It's too dangerous.
13:04Well, I would say it's risky.
13:05It's not dangerous.
13:07Yeah, thank you, Boone.
13:08Besides, he'll be wearing a wire if he gets into trouble with the police.
13:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on.
13:10No, no, you lost me there, pal.
13:13I've never worn a wire, and I'm not about to start now.
13:15All right, then you're not going in there.
13:16Look, I'm not a narc.
13:18This discussion is over.
13:19If you won't wear a wire, old man, you're not going in, which is fine by me anyway.
13:24This whole thing is against my better judgment.
13:25No, no, no, no, okay.
13:27Look, Wes, Mickey's right.
13:28Look, we got to have your back, all right?
13:29You old school growers might have a code, but these new players, no way.
13:36It's for Bill.
13:39All right, say something, Wes.
13:46I feel like a narc.
13:48I got him.
13:48You got him?
13:49Got him.
13:49Okay.
13:50All right, Dad, give me a word.
13:52A word?
13:54Yeah, if you're in trouble in there, you say the word, and we come in hot.
13:59Moonstone.
14:04Wish me luck.
14:04Good luck.
14:09How's he doing?
14:30Sorry, Mickey.
14:31If things go south, and I don't come out of there, you don't want to hear your old man dying.
14:36That's it.
14:59I'm pulling him out.
15:00No, Mickey.
15:01Wait, if we go busting in there, we don't just get wet shot, we get all of a shot.
15:05The best thing to do is just sit tight.
15:10All right, if he's not out in 10 minutes, I'm going in.
15:12What the hell do you want?
15:32We don't know you.
15:33Well, you should.
15:35I'm Wes Fox.
15:37Protect him!
15:42I haven't tried it myself, but I hear your flower sets a high bar for the rest of us.
15:49You're damn right it does.
15:51I've spent 40 years refining my strength.
15:53And you're trapped up in dead water.
15:55Mm-hmm.
15:56That's good land.
15:59You're looking to sell.
16:00No.
16:02But if I was, it wouldn't be to you.
16:05No, I'm here on behalf of the third party.
16:07Bernice Wambach.
16:09See, she doesn't want to end up like her husband,
16:11washed up on a riverbank with a few leaks in his back.
16:15You and your boys left there.
16:18Where's the property?
16:19Don't play dumb with me.
16:21It's the Wambach ranch.
16:23Now, she's prepared to sit down and negotiate,
16:28but no more violence.
16:29No.
16:39It's no good.
16:40There's no tree cover.
16:41It's all exposed.
16:42That's what hoop houses are for.
16:44We grow cushion critical,
16:46out of strength.
16:48Back's no good to us.
16:52Well,
16:53your loss.
16:54One more thing on that.
17:05Ow!
17:05Oh, hold still, you big baby.
17:07Is there any bones that need resetting?
17:08I got first dibs.
17:10I can't believe you.
17:11Look, they would have found your wire first thing.
17:14You could have gotten yourself killed.
17:16Yeah, well, I didn't.
17:17So relax.
17:18What's your read?
17:19Were they involved?
17:19I can't stand those sons of bitches.
17:21But they, uh,
17:23they grow outdoor strains.
17:25And Bill's ranch is not going to be any use to them.
17:27So no,
17:28no, I don't think they did it.
17:29Great.
17:29All that for a dead end.
17:31You had to rule them out.
17:33Yeah, no kidding.
17:34You're welcome.
17:37All right, let's call it.
17:38Get some rest.
17:39Come back fresh.
17:41Perfect.
17:41That'll give me more time to set up
17:42for Boone's going away party.
17:49Will you stop cleaning?
18:03I'm not cleaning.
18:04I'm tidying.
18:05Do you realize most people find hosting a party preferable
18:08to investigating a murder?
18:11Have you had a chance to talk to Nora yet?
18:13No.
18:14But I'm so happy for Cam and Greg.
18:17They found a surrogate.
18:18A surrogate, like, for a baby?
18:21They've been looking for a year.
18:23Did you not know?
18:24They're your deputies, Mickey.
18:25I guess I forgot.
18:27Okay.
18:28Mingle.
18:29Call him yet?
18:50Did Mickey ever talk to you about her breakup with Travis?
18:55No, but Gina made sure I knew all the sordid details.
18:59It sounded gnarly.
19:01Yes and no.
19:02There was a lot of hard feelings.
19:04I think Mickey especially wanted it to work.
19:07But they always respected each other
19:09and they found a way to stay friends.
19:10I mean, how many people do you know
19:13have a picture of their ex on display?
19:16Yeah, it's a little weird.
19:18Says the guy who kept his marriage a secret for two years.
19:21Walked into that one.
19:22Chip?
19:33Oh, no thanks.
19:35But this addition is so cool.
19:37I mean, was Skye an Oz kid?
19:39We read a few of them, but then we stopped.
19:41They completely freaked her out.
19:42Well, yeah, because they're totally freaky.
19:45But my son was obsessed, so we ran the whole series.
19:48Son?
19:48Yeah, Henry.
19:49He's at Sacramento State.
19:50Which is so crazy to me because he was just in his footie pajamas reading Osmo of Oz.
19:54Makes your head spin.
19:55Yeah, it does.
19:57So, what about Skye?
19:58Is she in college or...?
20:00Oh, she's taking some time off.
20:02She's backpacking right now in the Sierras with friends.
20:05Wow, very cool.
20:06Yeah.
20:06You know, I just wanted to clarify, Nate is not Henry's dad.
20:15I mean, just in case you were wondering, at this point, nothing would surprise me.
20:20Yeah.
20:23Excuse me.
20:24Of course.
20:24Hey.
20:30Hi.
20:31Come in.
20:32Wow.
20:33You're having a party.
20:35You don't have parties.
20:37I know.
20:37I didn't have a choice.
20:38It's for Boone.
20:38Why are you here?
20:39Wait, is Cassidy here?
20:40I can't do this two or twice in one day.
20:42What are you talking about?
20:43Oh, I'm an idiot.
20:44I should go.
20:45Travis, why are you here?
20:46All right, look, I know it's totally inappropriate for me to ask you about my relationship with Cassidy.
20:50But can you ask me about your relationship with Cassidy?
20:53Hmm.
20:54Only because it beats refilling the chips for the 11th time.
20:59Okay, um, she told me she needs some space.
21:03So give her space.
21:04Right, but you didn't hear about what...
21:05I don't need to, Travis.
21:07I know you.
21:07Your heart moves so fast.
21:10Not everyone is like that.
21:11Some hearts move a little slower.
21:13You mean like yours?
21:16We're not talking about mine.
21:18Cassidy's asking for space.
21:20Give her space.
21:24Well, this is pretty much my worst nightmare.
21:38Thank you, Gina, for organizing and to Mickey for hosting.
21:43Your worst nightmare.
21:43And, uh, uh, it's nice to be at a party and know where the bathroom is.
21:52Well, where everything is, actually, thanks to that search warrant.
21:55Oh.
21:57Yo.
21:58Too soon?
21:59This, uh, this town, Edgewater, it's a special place.
22:11You know, I've, I've moved around a bit and seen my share of departments, and I can honestly
22:16say that this is, this is the only place that feels like home.
22:22It's been an honor working with you guys.
22:25If I have one regret, it's that maybe, um...
22:30Maybe, that maybe I didn't live up to certain expectations.
22:38But I do know this, I'm gonna miss every single person in this room, because you guys are
22:46what makes this place special.
22:48You love a stranger, become a friend, so...
22:53Thanks for that.
22:56For everything, really.
23:01Where's the music?
23:02What you looking at?
23:21Uh, nothing.
23:22Right.
23:23Definitely not Boone's personnel file, because that would be completely improper.
23:28Fine.
23:28It's the service records from down in Oakland.
23:30Multiple commendations for bravery.
23:32Want to see my favorite part?
23:36Boone's partner in Oakland was Jason Roth.
23:38He awarded Boone the Medal of Valor.
23:40There is a picture.
23:42Oh, wait.
23:42That's Nora.
23:43Yeah.
23:44Okay.
23:44Now, here are Boone's dependents.
23:47Nora and her son, Henry Roth.
23:50The same last name.
23:52Wait.
23:52So Nora was married to Boone's partner?
23:55Did they have an affair?
23:56Well, if I knew that, I could retire happy.
23:58Hey!
23:58Two black coffees coming right up.
24:03So, I know you don't think that we should look into Bernice.
24:08But you went ahead and did it anyway.
24:09Pretty much.
24:10I just talked to your buddy, Punch.
24:12How is her favorite real estate agent slash Rotary Club president?
24:16Great.
24:16He's got a hot new listing.
24:17The Wambach Ranch.
24:19Bill just died.
24:20It's a little quick, don't you think?
24:21Mason mentioned that Bernice wanted to sell.
24:23I don't know.
24:24Is it all that surprising?
24:24Maybe not, but Bernice told Punch to start soliciting offers three weeks ago, before Bill died.
24:30And then she specifically asked Punch not to say anything about it to Bill.
24:33Yeah, that is odd.
24:34I still think it's a reach, but let's go talk to her.
24:40Boone.
24:41Sheriff's office.
24:53Bernice.
25:02Clear.
25:05Kitchen's clear.
25:06Bernice.
25:07Bernice.
25:14Bernice.
25:22Bernice?
25:23Bernice!
25:32Morning, Pete.
25:33Coffee's on.
25:36I was upstairs.
26:04Somebody kicked in the door.
26:07I grabbed Bill's shotgun, and I hid in the closet.
26:10I didn't have my phone.
26:11I couldn't call anybody.
26:13I thought I was going to...
26:14You did great.
26:16Whoever did this should feel lucky they didn't stumble in on a mountain woman with a shotgun.
26:21Give them both barrels, Bill always said.
26:24Nikki.
26:25House is clear.
26:26We spoke to Punch, and he mentioned you asked him to list the ranch a few weeks ago.
26:33Now, you told us that Bill refused to sell.
26:36So is it true?
26:37Are you selling?
26:37I hated to go behind Bill's back, but I don't feel safe here.
26:42And my Wilfred Wombach was the stubbornest damn man I ever met.
26:48And the best.
26:49He just couldn't face that the old days are gone.
26:52So many of our friends are selling.
26:54Cheryl and David, the Sloans, Irv.
26:57Irv?
26:58Are you sure?
26:59He made it sound like he would never sell.
27:01Well, sure, it has to sound tough in front of the boys, but he's closing escrow in a week.
27:06I know because of the water rights.
27:09Water rights?
27:10We've got an aquifer that runs beneath our ranch, but Irv's place is dry as a bone.
27:16For as long as I could remember, Bill just let Irv divert the water for his own grow,
27:21and Irv would pay him what he could.
27:23If Irv's grow relies on Bill's aquifer for water,
27:30the property would be useless to a new buyer without the same deal.
27:33So maybe Bill made a deal with the new buyers?
27:34Yeah, maybe, but they need more than a handshake agreement on the chain of title.
27:38Mm-hmm.
27:39You know what?
27:42Mickey, hey.
27:43Hey, Cassidy.
27:44I need you to pull the chain of title on the Wombach and McCall properties,
27:47grants, easements, anything on water rights.
27:49Everything you can find, okay?
27:51Water rights.
27:52On it.
27:53Hey.
27:57Hey, Dad, did you know that Irv was planning on selling his land?
28:00No.
28:00There's no way that's true.
28:02According to Bernice, it is.
28:04Well, I'll just ask him.
28:05He's sitting right here.
28:06We're at the meetup.
28:07No, don't.
28:08Why don't you just try to keep him there as long as you can?
28:11Yeah.
28:12Sure.
28:13I'll pick it up at the store on the way home.
28:16All right?
28:16Okay, I'll see you at the house.
28:19Is that Mickey on the phone?
28:21Yeah.
28:21Sounds like maybe she wanted you to ask me something.
28:24Yeah.
28:25Look, I want to know about those Bulgarians trying to buy your house.
28:29She wants to know if you got their names.
28:30Huh.
28:30No.
28:33No names.
28:34No.
28:39You know, I never asked you.
28:42Your daughter being sheriff and all.
28:45You ever get her to look the other way on something?
28:47No.
28:49So a few years back, when Fred was sheriff, and Nicky and Fred confiscated a bunch of my plants.
28:57But they didn't touch any of yours.
28:59I wasn't even speaking to my daughter two years ago.
29:04And you know damn well there is no way I would ever drop a dime to a badge.
29:09No.
29:11Just live under her roof.
29:17Here's to Bill.
29:19Our friend.
29:19Okay, I pulled everything that I could find on Bill and Irv's properties.
29:35Sure enough, there's an easement establishing shared water rights.
29:38When was it signed?
29:39A month ago.
29:40Ain't still fresh.
29:41William Wambach.
29:42And Irving McCall.
29:45Wait, wait, wait.
29:45Bill's legal name is Wilfred, not William.
29:48Irv must afford the signature.
29:57Another?
29:59No, I should go.
30:01Yeah, me too.
30:12You got something to tell me, Irv?
30:16You.
30:16You did it, didn't you?
30:27This is how it's gonna go.
30:31Either I can call the sheriff, or you can get in my truck and we will drive in together.
30:36You're gonna turn me over to the cops?
30:37What the hell happened to you, Wes?
30:40You killed our friend.
30:43But what the hell happened to you?
30:47So what's it gonna be?
30:52Okay.
30:55All right.
30:56I'll drive you.
30:59You get in.
31:14I'm sorry, Wes.
31:15Get in.
31:29Get in.
31:30Get in.
31:31Get in.
31:31Dad! Dad, Booter Nile Hamlet!
31:51Like hell! He's not even armed!
31:56Hey! Hey!
32:01You can't look at this river without thinking of Connie.
32:06Summer of 76.
32:08It's all down here fishing and boating.
32:10You know what I'm going to remember about this river from this day forward?
32:14Bill laying dead on the bank of it, and I want to know why.
32:19What's done is done.
32:21What does it matter now?
32:22It matters because he was your friend for 40 years.
32:26Yeah, that's right.
32:2840 years.
32:29He shook my hand. He told me we were going to share the water.
32:33I'm broke, Wes.
32:35And all these damn cartels coming in here and big pharma moving in.
32:38Growers like you and me.
32:40We're done.
32:41You did it for money.
32:42Selling my land is the only way that I can survive.
32:45And I found a buyer willing to pay cash.
32:49But Bill said no, no, no.
32:51He wouldn't sign over the water rights.
32:52My deal's with you, not any of these new fellas.
32:54He turned his back on me.
32:58And you used it for target practice.
33:00He gave me no choice.
33:04I got nothing, Wes.
33:05You had a brother, and you shot him in the back.
33:08That's what you had.
33:09I couldn't look him in the eye.
33:17Because you're a coward.
33:22You always did keep that cold under your seat.
33:27Gun.
33:27Dad, drop the gun!
33:29No!
33:29No!
33:30No!
33:30No!
33:30No!
33:30No!
33:31No!
33:31No!
33:38Remember me like I was.
33:41Drop the gun!
33:42No!
33:42No!
33:42No!
33:57I don't believe it.
33:59Irv was family.
34:01He was broke.
34:02He needed to sell to leave Edgewater.
34:04But why do you have to go through my bill?
34:07So does that mean that Irv broke in in my house?
34:11Irv was at the meetup with my dad.
34:13So was it the cartel?
34:16We don't believe so.
34:17So all those scare tactics, the bullet in our mailbox, the shed catching fire, who was that?
34:25We don't know yet, but we're going to keep looking.
34:27I think I need a smaller box.
34:39You should see his house.
34:41It shouldn't take more than an hour to pack up the last two years of his life.
34:45And that is so neat.
34:46He won't buy or do a single thing for himself unless somebody makes him.
34:49Oh, and Jason, Jason was the same way.
34:53Boone's partner, Jason, and Henry's dad.
34:55We were together for 15 years.
34:57Is he still down in Oakland?
35:00In a way, St. Mary's Cemetery.
35:04I'm so sorry.
35:05No, it's okay.
35:05He was dying for a long time.
35:07Maybe since the day he got his badge, actually.
35:10What you see on this job, it is not normal.
35:19No, it's not.
35:20And then it just built up.
35:22So he would have a beer and then a vodka, a drink, and then a whole bottle.
35:28Nate was his best friend.
35:29I mean, we tried.
35:30We tried to save him.
35:31But there was just nothing we could do.
35:35And Jason and I, we never got married.
35:36I mean, what's a piece of paper, right?
35:39But I couldn't touch his death benefits or his pension.
35:42So Henry and I had nothing until Nate married you.
35:45Yeah.
35:46He saved me.
35:47Right.
35:48He's always, always been there for me, even when he moved here.
35:50How could I not know that about him?
35:53He's ashamed, I think.
35:55Nate feels like he failed Jason.
35:58Everything he's ever done for me since Jason died is him trying to make up for that.
36:02But there's more there than just guilt, right?
36:04I mean, you guys are together.
36:06Uh, I mean, there's a lot of feelings there, but no.
36:10All the hurt doesn't really leave a lot of room for anything else.
36:17Thanks.
36:18Thanks for coming.
36:21Cass, I, listen, I'm so, so sorry about yesterday.
36:25Pulling you into court, he was battling.
36:27I don't know what I was thinking.
36:32Remember when you and Mickey had me over for enchiladas?
36:34The two of you were cooking.
36:36You ended up...
36:36Oh, I almost sliced my finger off.
36:39Yeah.
36:39Mickey wanted you to go to the hospital.
36:41You didn't want to go, and you two started fighting about it.
36:44She was being ridiculous.
36:46I started feeling really uncomfortable.
36:48And then Mickey said, well, maybe you'd be lucky.
36:51And the doctors would pull your head out of your ass after they stitched up your finger.
36:56And you started laughing so hard.
36:59Yeah.
36:59And so did she, and then so did I.
37:02It's still in this car.
37:05Yeah.
37:10I wanted that.
37:12I wanted a relationship that felt safe.
37:16I'm not saying it was perfect.
37:18What are you saying?
37:22It was real.
37:23And after everything that happened with Skye, the fight that we had, I realized I have two
37:32settings in relationships.
37:34I'm either terrified or I'm hiding.
37:37I don't know how to do real yet.
37:39I want what you and Mickey had.
37:45But I have a lot of work to do myself first.
37:50I'm sorry, Travis.
37:52Jess.
38:14It's now a good time for my exit interview.
38:25I think I'm going to hit the road early tomorrow.
38:26You know, I never thought, um, I'd become sheriff.
38:36Never really wanted it.
38:38Then Fred died, and it's like, I didn't want to let him down, you know?
38:43So I put up a wall.
38:44My job on one side and my life, my mess on the other.
38:50I know there are some people in this town who think I don't belong in this office.
38:53Mickey.
38:54Those people are idiots.
38:55I'm a damn good sheriff.
38:57In part because of that wall.
38:59I'm not a great sheriff.
39:02Not as good as Fred was.
39:04In part also because of that wall.
39:07So, if you have to go, I get it.
39:09I wanted you to know that you have exceeded all of my expectations.
39:17And I'm terrified to see you go, because I cannot make sure this place without you.
39:22Mickey.
39:25I made plans.
39:26I know.
39:26I get it.
39:33I just wanted to tell you, because I think if I didn't, I would have regret it for a long time.
39:36I'm sorry.
39:37Bye.
39:55I'm sorry.
39:57What about you?
40:02What about you?
40:04Wow, this guy's been gone, what, two days?
40:15Look at us.
40:16Uh-huh.
40:17We gin up all this gloss about who we are, and we're nothing but animals.
40:24No grace, no honor, just a bunch of wild animals eating each other.
40:28You okay?
40:30I never thought I was one who needed fairy tales told to me before I put my head to a pillow at night,
40:37but I've just been telling myself stories all these years about who we were, how it was.
40:43They're not fairy tales.
40:44I was little, but I remember.
40:46Potlucks at Bill and Bernice's, looking for sea glass on Moonstone Beach.
40:51You said they were mermaids' tears.
40:54Mom told me that.
41:00That sounds like something she'd say.
41:05Dad, what Irv did, that was about him.
41:08You created a community, a family.
41:11Yeah, but everything's changed.
41:16There's no going back.
41:19All right.
41:20Then move forward.
41:33You drive me up the damn wall, Dad.
41:36You're still one of the good ones.
41:38you're still one of the good ones.
41:40You're you buying in now, but you're buying a damn wall.
41:53Ooh.
41:55But you down, you're losing the same celebrities
41:57as well as I get a no to- Look at this.
42:02What's on the agenda, boss?
42:30You're six minutes late.
42:33Before the song comes up.
42:43Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.
42:45New in two weeks.
42:48We have no idea who attacked you.
42:50They came up behind me.
42:51Step away from the vehicle, please.
42:53No can't do.
42:54They're covering for someone.
42:56I want to know why.
