00:00January 24, 1848, James Marshall hollered,
00:06Gold! And the rush began.
00:08Rival families, conflicting claims, yes siree,
00:11the thirst for gold made people do crazy things.
00:14Sometimes, it even got bloody.
00:16Not everyone who discovered gold lived to tell about it.
00:18Like that guy?
00:21Is he a thief?
00:23Is that an actor?
00:30Is that an actor?
00:39Your wife.
00:43Of course, your wife.
00:46Nora.
00:48Yeah?
00:48Nice to meet you.
00:49You too.
00:51So, you live in Oakland?
00:54I do, yeah.
00:55I'm a pediatric nurse.
00:56I just took a few days off to help Nate pack up.
00:58Right, Nate.
01:00Which is totally what spouses do.
01:06I'm gonna let you two, uh, I have to go.
01:08Well, this is your office, Mickey's.
01:11Maybe we should...
01:11Right.
01:12I'm gonna...
01:13And, uh, you want this.
01:19Which reminds me, you should schedule your exit interview.
01:23Nate.
01:23Nate.
01:26Nice to meet you, Nora.
01:27You guys, Boone is freaking married.
01:38I am in a state of shock.
01:40Is she nice?
01:40Is she hot?
01:41Yes.
01:41Total smoke show.
01:42More to the point.
01:43How has he worked here for two years and hadn't said anything?
01:45It's Boone.
01:46He's even less of a sharer than you.
01:48I mean, how well do any of us even know him?
01:50We could pull his personnel file.
01:52That would be completely improper.
01:53We are not doing that.
01:54Suit yourself.
01:55I mean, he's already got one foot out the door.
01:57Oh, speaking of which, we're throwing him a goodbye party tonight at your house.
02:00My house?
02:01Well, my place is too small.
02:02And we're not doing lunchtime cupcakes at the XO.
02:04It's Boone.
02:05Are you still ducking, Travis?
02:08Wait, what's going on with you and Travis?
02:09It's nothing.
02:10It's just...
02:10Travis couldn't deal with seeing Cassidy arrest Skye, and Cassidy couldn't deal with Travis
02:14not dealing.
02:15Am I wrong?
02:17I just need some time to figure some stuff out.
02:19That's all.
02:20Besides, we're not talking about me and Travis.
02:22We're talking about Boone and his secrets.
02:25We just got a call.
02:26The body's been found in the Eel River just past the bend.
02:28It looks like a homicide.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:29Okay.
02:30Okay.
02:31Okay.
02:31Okay.
02:33Okay.
02:33Okay.
02:34Okay.
02:35Okay.
02:37What's your dad doing?
02:38Dad.
02:40Mickey.
02:40What are you doing here?
02:41It's Bill.
02:42What?
02:43Bill Wambach?
02:44Yeah.
02:45Somebody shot him in the back.
02:46Irv called me.
02:46I drove down.
02:47Oh my God, Dad.
02:48I'm so sorry.
02:49Yeah.
02:49The Wambachs are an old ranching family.
02:51They've been in Edgewater for over a hundred years.
02:55Show some respect.
02:57Put away your cameras.
02:57Dad.
02:59Just wait here.
03:00A guide and a couple of tourists dragged up his body to see if he could save him.
03:09Best of intentions, but...
03:11They trampled the crime scene.
03:12Now hope for a shoe print.
03:18Four entry wounds on the back.
03:20Those powder burns on his shirt.
03:24This killer was standing close.
03:26This was an execution.
03:31Hi.
03:32I'm Deputy Campbell.
03:33I got this summons, but I think it's a mistake.
03:35It's for a citation that I wrote.
03:37It's not a mistake.
03:37The defendant decided to challenge.
03:39It's a moving violation.
03:40Next, we have Mr. Lewis' case.
03:43Mr. Lewis, give us a wave if you're here.
03:45Great.
03:46And the ticketing officer, Deputy Campbell.
03:48Right here, Your Honor.
03:49Excellent.
03:50Representing Mr. Lewis, we have Mr. Dwyer.
03:52Actually, I'll be taking this one, Your Honor.
03:54Mr. Fraley, I'm surprised.
03:56You're doing traffic tickets now.
03:58There's something about this case that's very near and dear to me, Your Honor.
04:01Very well.
04:02You may proceed.
04:05Bill's truck is in the parking lot.
04:06It's being processed, but there's no houses around.
04:08No one reported gunshots, so...
04:10There's no one to really canvas.
04:11All right, let's look at his business dealings, his circle of friends,
04:14and let's talk to his wife, Bernice.
04:16See if he had any enemies.
04:17Enemies?
04:17When I used to bring you and Sharon Fish in this very river,
04:21who taught you how to clean the trough?
04:23Dad.
04:23When Sky's soccer field was flooded, her team needed a place to play.
04:27Who cleared off a patch in his field?
04:29Bill didn't have enemies in Edgewater.
04:31Bill was Edgewater.
04:32Bill!
04:33No!
04:34Bernice!
04:35No!
04:35Bernice!
04:36He's gone, he's gone.
04:38He's gone.
04:41You better find the son of a bitch that did this before I do.
04:47This morning, he was in the kitchen reading the box scores,
04:51pouring his coffee.
04:52And now he's gone.
04:54I'm so sorry, Bernice.
04:56I know this must seem soon, but did Bill have any enemies?
05:00Anybody who would want to hurt him?
05:01No, no enemies.
05:02About a week ago, a man came to the house asking if we were interested in selling the ranch.
05:07Bill said no.
05:08I was born on this ranch, he told the fella, and one day I'll...
05:12Anyway, the man went away.
05:17We didn't think anything more of it.
05:18And then a few days later...
05:20Bill found a bullet in his mailbox.
05:22Yeah, I got one too.
05:23We were getting calls at all hours.
05:25You should think about selling.
05:27Maybe it's not safe for you here.
05:28And then they'd hang up.
05:29And then, last week, the shed caught fire.
05:32Mason and Irv helped Bill put it out, but I was terrified.
05:34There's these cartels moving in.
05:36They just want to muscle us out.
05:37It's not going to work.
05:39Bill wasn't leaving, and we're not leaving.
05:40Bernice, this man who came to your door, can you describe him for us?
05:46Well, he looked normal.
05:47He wasn't clean-shaven, eyes-odd shirt.
05:50That doesn't exactly scream cartel.
05:52Did he leave his information?
05:53Not that I know of.
05:54What, you think they carry business cards?
05:56Those people do not leave a paper trail.
05:58Now, half the growers between here and Deadwater have gotten threats.
06:02And if people are getting threats, they should be coming to us.
06:05Yes, they should be, but they won't.
06:09Stay strong.
06:10And just know, we are doing everything we can to find whoever did this.
06:14So, have you also been getting threats, Dad?
06:16Not yet.
06:17But you can guarantee I'll be ready.
06:19Mickey, Mickey.
06:20Hey.
06:22I didn't want to say anything.
06:25I'm not even sure that I should.
06:26Mason, if you know something.
06:28It's probably nothing.
06:30Like, I feel bad even mentioning it, but, uh...
06:33Bill and Bernice have been fighting.
06:35Like, a lot.
06:36Eight years I've worked here, it's never been like that.
06:39Bernice wanted to sell the ranch like she really, really wanted to sell.
06:42Bill, he just couldn't hear it.
06:43He just kept saying, Edgewater's my home.
06:45Thanks, it's good you told us.
06:51We should look at Bernice.
06:53Like, you're crazy.
06:54I think you're barking up the wrong tree.
06:55No, this is the same stuff he pulled in the sky.
06:57See, it's a statistical fact, okay?
06:58If a murder victim is married, the most likely culprit is the spouse.
07:01Listen, sure, they've been together a long time, but we don't know what goes on behind closed doors.
07:05Or what secrets they might be keeping.
07:07Look, I agree with you.
07:08Every marriage is a black box.
07:10Some more than others.
07:11Why don't we hang back, wait for ballistics?
07:13Dad, I want you to talk to Irv.
07:15Him and Bill, we're tight.
07:16There may be more to these threats than he's saying.
07:18All right.
07:18I'll let you know when I find out.
07:22Your dad's a deputy now?
07:24Look, I gotta give him something to do, or he's gonna find something, and it's not gonna be good.
07:32Deputy Campbell, you said you saw my client roll through a stop sign while looking at his phone.
07:37You certainly rolled through.
07:39You had eyes on his car the whole time.
07:41My eyes weren't the problem.
07:42His were.
07:43They were glued to his phone.
07:45Just so happens, he received a very important phone call.
07:49Maybe some calls shouldn't be ignored.
07:52Stop signs shouldn't be ignored either.
07:54It's against the law to ignore them, which is why I issued the citation.
07:58No one's arguing that, Deputy.
07:59But my client's cell phone use was necessary to prevent harm.
08:03The call was from his child's doctor.
08:05She had critical and time-sensitive information to share with him, as you'll see in these phone records, Your Honor.
08:12Dr. Patel, this is your child's doctor.
08:15Yes, Your Honor.
08:16She was calling with test results.
08:17I was pretty concerned.
08:18I remember what that's like.
08:20I'm going to dismiss the charges.
08:23In the future, stop at the damn stop sign, Mr. Lewis.
08:26Thank you, Mr. Fraley.
08:28You too, Deputy Campbell.
08:35You don't have to get up to your neck in a murder case.
08:38You're out of here at the end of the week.
08:39Let me talk on Cassidy or Whitley.
08:41No, thanks, but I want to help you solve it up.
08:43I can stick around for a few days if I need to.
08:45Oh, yeah?
08:46What about Nora?
08:47She's going to be okay with that?
08:49Sure.
08:49Yeah, it's no big deal.
08:50All right, dude, what is the deal?
08:53We've worked together for two years.
08:54You don't mention you're married?
08:56And don't say I didn't ask.
08:57This is me, asking.
08:59I don't like discussing my personal life.
09:01Boone.
09:02Aren't you the one who's always saying that we have to keep the personal and the professional
09:05separate?
09:06I believe the word firewall has been used.
09:08I...
09:08Nah.
09:11Fine.
09:11Maybe.
09:12In that case, I'll go see where we are with ballistics.
09:14Cassidy, Cassidy, wait up.
09:21This is my job, Travis.
09:22I don't appreciate you making a game of it.
09:24How else am I supposed to talk to you?
09:25Wanted my calls?
09:26You want me to push me at work?
09:28That is deranged.
09:30Oh, God, it is deranged.
09:33I'm so sorry.
09:33Look, I know I screwed up.
09:35I know you were just doing your job when you arrested this guy.
09:37I'm over that, Travis.
09:39Not even about that anymore.
09:41Look, I have a lot on my mind.
09:43And I need time and space to figure it out.
09:46So if I'm not picking up your calls, it's because I'm not ready to talk to you.
09:49It's a stop sign.
09:50Maybe your client can explain that to you.
09:58I'm telling you, it's one of them cartels.
10:00And if we don't watch our backs, we'll be next.
10:02Yeah.
10:04I don't know.
10:06I've been thinking about what Boone said in your bullet in the mailbox stuff.
10:10That reads cartel.
10:12But the guys in polo shirts showing up, knocking on doors, making formal offers on Bill's property?
10:18Come on.
10:19A wolf in yuppie clothes is still a wolf.
10:21True.
10:21And these guys are pouring in from all over.
10:23China, Bulgaria, Central America.
10:25They're armed and they're dangerous.
10:27They're not here to be good neighbors.
10:28They're here to snatch up our land.
10:30Hell, I caught a couple Bulgarian guys sniffing around my grow last week and I had to chase them off with a shotgun.
10:34Really?
10:34These outsiders want to destroy everything that we built.
10:37Outsiders?
10:40That's what they called us growers when we showed up here in Edgewater.
10:43Outsiders.
10:45It was Bill and it was ranchers like him that welcomed us in.
10:49Well, times have changed.
10:50And if we don't draw the line now, the community that we built will be gone.
10:56Bill was shot at point-blank range with .450 caliber rounds from a Desert Eagle.
11:07Statement gun.
11:08Cartel favorite.
11:10Oh, hey, come on in.
11:10Did you talk to her?
11:11Yeah.
11:12Yeah, just now.
11:13He said that some Bulgarian cartel-looking guys came by his place last week.
11:17He ran them off.
11:18His land is right next to Bill's.
11:21Bulgarian cartel-looking guys.
11:22Our murder weapon is definitely their style.
11:25Yeah.
11:25They like to hang at that MMA gym right off of Route 9.
11:27Might be worth paying him a visit.
11:29It's not the kind of place two deputies can just walk in and start asking questions.
11:32You can't, but I can.
11:33Dad, forget it.
11:35I can walk in there.
11:36Whether they shot Bill or not, these cartel guys are suspected of a dozen murders up and down the state.
11:41You're not going in there.
11:42Although.
11:43Good.
11:43Let the man speak.
11:47Look, the Bulgarians will know Wes by reputation and he can get in there under a false pretense and maybe try and get some information out.
11:53No way, it's too dangerous.
11:54Well, I would say it's risky.
11:56It's not dangerous.
11:57Yeah, thank you, bud.
11:58Besides, he'll be wearing a wire if he gets into trouble.
12:00Whoa, whoa, whoa.
12:00Hold on.
12:01No, no.
12:01You lost me there, pal.
12:03I've never worn a wire and I'm not about to start now.
12:05Great.
12:05Then you're not going in there.
12:06Look, I'm not a narc.
12:07This discussion is over.
12:09If you won't wear a wire, old man, you're not going in, which is fine by me anyway.
12:13This whole thing is against my better judgment.
12:15No, no, no.
12:16Okay.
12:16Look, Wes, Mickey's right.
12:17Look, we got to have your back, all right?
12:19You old school growers might have a code, but these new players, no way.
12:23It's for Bill.
12:31All right, say something, Wes.
12:34I feel like a narc.
12:36I got him.
12:37You got him?
12:37Got him.
12:37Okay.
12:38All right, Dad.
12:39Give me a word.
12:41A word?
12:42Yeah, if you're in trouble in there, you say the word and we come in hot.
12:47Moonstone.
12:51Wish me luck.
12:52Good luck.
13:15How's he doing?
13:16Sorry, Mickey.
13:17If things go south and I don't come out of there,
13:20you don't want to hear your old man dying.
13:44That's it.
13:44I'm pulling him out.
13:45No, Mickey.
13:46Wait, if we go busting in there, we don't just get wet shot, we get all of a shot.
13:50The best thing to do is just sit tight.
13:54All right, if he's not out in 10 minutes, I'm going in.
13:57What the hell do you want?
14:15We don't know you.
14:16Well, you should.
14:17Well, you should.
14:18I'm Wes Fox.
14:21What does he go?
14:28I haven't tried it myself, but I hear your flower sets a high bar for the rest of us.
14:32You're damn right it does.
14:33I've spent 40 years refining my strength.
14:36And you're trapped up in dead water.
14:37Mm-hmm.
14:39That's good land.
14:39You're looking to sell.
14:43No.
14:44But if I was, it wouldn't be to you.
14:47No, I'm here on behalf of the third party.
14:49Bernice Wombach.
14:51See, she doesn't want to end up like her husband,
14:53washed up on a riverbank with a few leaks in his back.
14:56You and your boys left there.
14:59Where's the property?
15:00Don't play dumb with me.
15:02It's the Wombach ranch.
15:03Now, she's prepared to sit down and negotiate, but no more violence.
15:18No.
15:19It's no good.
15:21There's no tree cover.
15:21It's all exposed.
15:22That's what hoop houses are for.
15:24We grow cushion critical, out of our strains.
15:28Back's no good to us.
15:29Well, you're lost.
15:35Huh?
15:40One more thing on that.
15:44Ow!
15:44Oh, hold still, you big baby.
15:46Is there any bones that need resetting?
15:47I got first dibs.
15:48I can't believe you.
15:50Look, they would have found your wire first thing.
15:53You could have gotten yourself killed.
15:54Yeah, well, I didn't.
15:55So relax.
15:56What's your read?
15:57Were they involved?
15:57I can't stand those sons of bitches.
16:00But they, uh, they grow outdoor strains.
16:03And Bill's ranch is not going to be any use to them.
16:05So no.
16:06No, I don't think they did it.
16:07Great.
16:07All that for a dead end.
16:09We had to rule them out.
16:11Yeah, no kidding.
16:12You're welcome.
16:14All right, let's call it.
16:16Get some rest.
16:17Come back fresh.
16:18Perfect.
16:18They'll give me more time to set up for Boone's going away party.
16:21Will you stop cleaning?
16:39I'm not cleaning.
16:40I'm tidying.
16:41Do you realize most people find hosting a party preferable to investigating a murder?
16:47Have you had a chance to talk to Nora yet?
16:49No.
16:50But I'm so happy for Cam and Greg.
16:52They found a surrogate.
16:54A surrogate, like, for a baby?
16:57They've been looking for a year.
16:58Did you not know?
16:59They're your deputies, Mickey.
17:00I guess I forgot.
17:02Okay.
17:03Mingle.
17:23Calm yet?
17:26Did Mickey ever talk to you about her breakup with Travis?
17:29No.
17:30But Gina made sure I knew all the sort of details.
17:33It sounded gnarly.
17:34Yes and no.
17:35There was a lot of hard feelings.
17:37I think Mickey especially wanted it to work.
17:40But they always respected each other and they found a way to stay friends.
17:44I mean, how many people do you know have a picture of their ex on display?
17:49Yeah, it's a little weird.
17:51Says the guy who kept his marriage a secret for two years.
17:54Walked into that one.
17:59Chip?
18:05Oh, no thanks.
18:07But this addition is so cool.
18:09I mean, was Skye an Oz kid?
18:11We read a few of them, but then we stopped.
18:12They completely freaked her out.
18:14Well, yeah, because they're totally freaky.
18:16But my son was obsessed, so we ran the whole series.
18:19Some?
18:19Yeah, Henry.
18:20He's at Sacramento State.
18:21Which is so crazy to me, because he was just in his footy pajamas reading Osmo of Oz.
18:25Makes your head spin.
18:26Yeah, it does.
18:28So, what about Skye?
18:29Is she in college?
18:30Oh, she's taking some time off.
18:32She's backpacking right now in the Sierras with friends.
18:35Wow, very cool.
18:36Yeah.
18:40You know, I just wanted to clarify, Nate is not Henry's dad.
18:45I mean, just in case you were wondering, at this point, nothing would surprise me.
18:50Yeah.
18:53Excuse me.
18:53Of course.
18:54Hey.
18:59Hi.
19:00Come in.
19:01Wow.
19:02You're having a party.
19:04You don't have parties.
19:06I know.
19:06I didn't have a choice.
19:07It's for Boone.
19:07Why are you here?
19:08Wait, is Cassidy here?
19:09I can't do this two or twice in one day.
19:11What are you talking about?
19:12Oh, I'm an idiot.
19:13I should go.
19:13Travis, why are you here?
19:15All right, look, I know it's totally inappropriate for me to ask you about my relationship with Cassidy.
19:19But can you ask me about your relationship with Cassidy?
19:21Only because it beats refilling the chips for the 11th time.
19:27Okay.
19:29She told me she needs some space.
19:30So give her space.
19:31Right.
19:32But you didn't hear about...
19:33I don't need to, Travis.
19:34I know you.
19:35Your heart moves so fast.
19:37Not everyone is like that.
19:39Some hearts move a little slower.
19:40You mean like yours?
19:41We're not talking about mine.
19:45Cassidy is asking you for space.
19:47Give her space.
19:55Well, this is pretty much my worst nightmare.
20:02Thank you, Gina, for organizing and to Mickey for hosting your worst nightmare.
20:11And it's nice to be at a party and know where the bathroom is.
20:17Well, where everything is, actually, thanks to that search warrant.
20:20Oh.
20:22Yo.
20:23Too soon?
20:24This town, Edgewater, it's a special place.
20:36You know, I've moved around a bit and seen my sheriff's departments, and I can honestly
20:40say that this is the only place that feels like home.
20:44It's been an honor working with you guys.
20:49If I have one regret, it's that maybe, um...
20:58Maybe...
20:59That maybe I didn't live up to certain expectations.
21:05But I do know this.
21:06I'm going to miss every single person in this room, because you guys are what makes this
21:09place special.
21:11You love a stranger.
21:12Become a friend.
21:14So...
21:15Thanks for that.
21:18For everything, really.
21:23Where's the music?
21:41What you looking at?
21:42Uh, nothing.
21:43Right.
21:44Definitely not Boone's personnel file, because that would be completely improper.
21:49Fine.
21:49It's the service records from down in Oakland.
21:51Multiple accommodations for bravery.
21:52Want to see my favorite part?
21:56Boone's partner in Oakland was Jason Roth.
21:59He awarded Boone the Medal of Valor.
22:01There is a picture.
22:02Oh, wait.
22:02That's Nora.
22:03Yeah.
22:03Okay.
22:04Okay.
22:04Now, here are Boone's dependents.
22:07Nora and her son, Henry Roth.
22:10The same last name.
22:12So, Nora was married to Boone's partner?
22:14Did they have an affair?
22:15Well, if I knew that, I could retire happy.
22:17Hey!
22:18Two black coffees coming right up.
22:22So, I know you don't think that we should look into Bernice.
22:27But you went ahead and did anywhere.
22:28Pretty much.
22:28I just talked to your buddy, Punch.
22:31How is her favorite real estate agent slash Rotary Club president?
22:34Great.
22:35He's got a hot new listing.
22:36The Wambach Ranch.
22:37Bill just died.
22:38It's a little quick, don't you think?
22:39Mason mentioned that Bernice wanted to sell.
22:41I don't know.
22:42Is it all that surprising?
22:43Maybe not.
22:43But Bernice told Punch to start soliciting offers three weeks ago, before Bill died.
22:48And then she specifically asked Punch not to say anything about it to Bill.
22:51Yeah, that is odd.
22:52I still think it's a reach, but let's go talk to her.
22:58Boone.
22:58Sheriff's office.
23:10Bernice.
23:18Clear.
23:21The kitchen's clear.
23:23Bernice.
23:23Bernice.
23:30Bernice.
23:38Bernice.
23:38Bernice.
23:39Morning, Pete.
23:48Coffee's on.
23:49Ben.
23:49I was upstairs.
24:18Somebody kicked in the door.
24:20I grabbed Bill's shotgun and I hid in the closet.
24:23I didn't have my phone.
24:24I couldn't call anybody.
24:26I thought I was going to...
24:27You did great.
24:29Whoever did this should feel lucky they didn't stumble in on a mountain woman with a shotgun.
24:33Give them both barrels, Bill always said.
24:37House is clear.
24:38We spoke to Punch and he mentioned you asked him to list the ranch a few weeks ago.
24:45Now, you told us that Bill refused to sell.
24:48So is it true?
24:49Are you selling?
24:49I hated to go behind Bill's back.
24:52But I don't feel safe here.
24:54And my Wilfred Wombach was the stubbornest damn man I ever met.
24:59And the best.
25:01He just couldn't face that the old days are gone.
25:03So many of our friends are selling.
25:05Cheryl and David.
25:06The Sloans.
25:08Irv.
25:08Irv?
25:09Are you sure?
25:10He made it sound like he would never sell.
25:12Well, sure, it has to sound tough in front of the boys, but he's closing escrow in a week.
25:16I know because of the water rights.
25:20Water rights?
25:21We've got an aquifer that runs beneath our ranch.
25:23But Irv's place is dry as a bone.
25:26For as long as I could remember, Bill just let Irv divert the water for his own grow,
25:31and Irv would pay him what he could.
25:37If Irv's grow relies on Bill's aquifer for water,
25:39the property would be useless to a new buyer without the same deal.
25:42So maybe Bill made a deal with the new buyers?
25:43Yeah, maybe, but they need more than a handshake agreement on the chain of title.
25:47Mm-hmm.
25:48You know what?
25:51Mickey, hey.
25:51Hey, Cassidy.
25:53I need you to pull the chain of title on the Wombach and McCall properties,
25:56grants, easements, anything on water rights.
25:58Everything you can find, okay?
25:59Water rights.
26:00On it.
26:04Hey.
26:05Hey, Dad, did you know that Irv was planning on selling his land?
26:08No.
26:08There's no way that's true.
26:09According to Bernice, it is.
26:11Well, I'll just ask him.
26:13He's sitting right here.
26:14We're at the meetup.
26:14No, don't.
26:16Why don't you just try to keep him there as long as you can?
26:18Yeah.
26:19Sure.
26:20I'll pick it up at the store on the way home.
26:23All right?
26:23Okay, I'll see you at the house.
26:26Is that Mickey on the phone?
26:27Yeah.
26:29Sounds like maybe she wanted you to ask me something.
26:31Yeah.
26:32I want to know about those Bulgarians trying to buy your house.
26:35She wants to know if you got their names.
26:36Huh.
26:38No.
26:40No names.
26:41No.
26:45You know, I never asked you.
26:47Your daughter being sheriff and all.
26:51You ever get her to look the other way on something?
26:54No.
26:54So, a few years back, when Fred was sheriff,
26:57and Nicky and Fred confiscated a bunch of my plants,
27:01they didn't touch any of yours.
27:04I wasn't even speaking to my daughter two years ago.
27:09And you know damn well there is no way
27:11I would ever drop a dime to a badge.
27:14No.
27:16Just live under a roof.
27:22Here's to Bill.
27:23Our friend.
27:24Our friend.
27:31Okay, I pulled everything that I could find
27:36on Bill and Irv's properties.
27:38Sure enough, there's an easement
27:39establishing shared water rights.
27:41When was it signed?
27:42How about the go?
27:43Thanks, so fresh.
27:44William Wambach.
27:45And Irving McCaw.
27:48Wait, wait, wait.
27:48Bill's legal name is Wilfred, not William.
27:51Irv must afford the signature.
27:59Another?
27:59No, I should go.
28:03Yeah, me too.
28:14You got something to tell me, Irv?
28:17You.
28:18You did it, didn't you?
28:19This is how it's gonna go.
28:32Either I can call the sheriff
28:33or you can get in my truck
28:35and we will drive in together.
28:36You're gonna turn me over to the cops?
28:39What the hell happened to you, Wes?
28:40You killed our friend.
28:43But what the hell happened to you?
28:44So what's it gonna be?
28:52Okay.
28:55All right.
28:58I'll drive you.
28:59You get in.
29:00I'm sorry, Wes.
29:13Get in, sir.
29:28Get in.
29:28Dad.
29:46Dad.
29:47Dad, boot an aisle Hamlet.
29:48I can't look at this river without thinking of Connie.
30:03Summer is 76.
30:04It's all down here fishing and boating.
30:06You know what I'm gonna remember
30:07about this river from this day forward?
30:09Bill laying dead on the bank of it.
30:11And I wanna know why.
30:14What's done is done.
30:16What does it matter now?
30:17It matters because he was your friend
30:20for 40 years.
30:21Yeah, that's right.
30:2440 years.
30:25He shook my hand.
30:26He told me we were gonna share the water.
30:28I'm broke, Wes.
30:29And all these damn cartels coming in here
30:31and big pharma moving in.
30:33Growers like you and me.
30:34We're done.
30:36You did it for money.
30:37Selling my land is the only way that I can survive.
30:39And I found a buyer willing to pay cash.
30:43But Bill said no, no, no.
30:45He wouldn't sign over the water rights.
30:46My deal's with you, not any new fellas.
30:50He turned his back on me.
30:52And you used it for target practice.
30:54He gave me no choice.
30:57I got nothing, Wes.
30:58You had a brother and you shot him in the back.
31:01That's what you had.
31:03I couldn't look him in the eye.
31:10Because you're a coward.
31:14You always did keep that cold under your seat.
31:19Gun.
31:20Dad, grab the gun.
31:21No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
31:24Remember me like I was.
31:32Drop the gun!
31:34No!
31:34No!
31:34I don't believe it.
31:50Irv was family.
31:51He was broke.
31:52He needed to sell to leave Edgewater.
31:54But why do you have to go through my bill?
31:57So does that mean that Irv broke into my house?
32:01Irv was at the meetup with my dad.
32:02So was it the cartel?
32:06We don't believe so.
32:07So all those scare tactics, the bullet in our mailbox, the shed catching fire, who was that?
32:14We don't know yet, but we're going to keep looking.
32:17You're going to need a smaller box.
32:28You should see his house.
32:30Shouldn't take more than an hour to pack up the last two years of his life.
32:33And that is so neat.
32:34He won't buy or do a single thing for himself unless somebody makes him.
32:37Oh, and Jason, Jason was the same way.
32:41Boone's partner, Jason.
32:42And Henry's dad.
32:43We were together for 15 years.
32:45Is he still down in Oakland?
32:48In a way, St. Mary's Cemetery.
32:51I'm so sorry.
32:52No, it's okay.
32:53He was dying for a long time.
32:55Maybe since the day he got his badge, actually.
32:57What you see on this job, it is not normal.
33:06No, it's not.
33:07And then it just built up.
33:09So he would have a beer and then a vodka, a drink and then a whole bottle.
33:14It was his best friend.
33:15I mean, we tried.
33:16We tried to save him, but there was just nothing we could do.
33:21And Jason and I, we never got married.
33:23I mean, what's a piece of paper, right?
33:24But I couldn't touch his death benefits or his pension.
33:28So Henry and I had nothing until Nate...
33:30Married you.
33:31Yeah.
33:32He saved me.
33:33Right.
33:33He's always, always been there for me, even when he moved here.
33:36How could I not know that about him?
33:38He's ashamed, I think.
33:40Nate feels like he failed, Jason.
33:43Everything he's ever done for me since Jason died is him trying to make up for that.
33:47But there's more there than just guilt, right?
33:49I mean, you guys are together.
33:51Uh, I mean, there's a lot of feelings there, but no.
33:55All the hurt doesn't really leave a lot of room for anything else.
34:01Thanks.
34:04Thanks for coming.
34:05Yes, I...
34:06Listen, I'm so, so sorry about yesterday.
34:09Pulling you into court, it was...
34:10Adeline, I don't know what I was thinking.
34:15Remember when you and Mickey had me over for enchiladas?
34:18The two of you were cooking.
34:19You ended up...
34:20Oh, I almost sliced my finger off.
34:22Yeah.
34:22Mickey wanted you to go to the hospital.
34:24You didn't want to go, and you two started fighting about it.
34:27She was being ridiculous.
34:28I started feeling really uncomfortable.
34:31And then Mickey said, well, maybe you'd be lucky.
34:34The doctors would pull your head out of your ass after they stitched up your finger.
34:39And you started laughing so hard.
34:41Yeah.
34:42And so did she, and...
34:43And then so did I.
34:46It's not a scar.
34:47Yeah.
34:51I wanted that.
34:53I wanted a relationship that felt safe.
34:56I'm not saying it was perfect.
34:59What...
35:00What are you saying?
35:03It was real.
35:05And...
35:05After everything that happened with Skye...
35:07The fight that we had...
35:09I realized I have two settings in relationships.
35:14I'm either terrified, or I'm hiding.
35:18I don't know how to do real yet.
35:19I want what you and Mickey had.
35:25But I have a lot of work to do myself first.
35:30I'm sorry, Travis.
35:32Cassie.
35:32Cassie.
35:32Cassie.
36:01It's now a good time for my ex's interview.
36:03Thinking we'll hit the road early tomorrow.
36:10You know, I never thought, um...
36:12I'd become sheriff.
36:13Never really wanted it.
36:16Then Fred died, and it's like...
36:18I didn't want to let him down, you know?
36:20So, I put up a wall.
36:21My job on one side, and my life.
36:24My mess on the other.
36:27I know there are some people in this town...
36:28Who think I don't belong in this office.
36:30Mickey.
36:31Those people are idiots.
36:31I'm a damn good sheriff.
36:33In part because of that wall.
36:36I'm not a great sheriff.
36:38Not as good as Fred was.
36:40In part, also because of that wall.
36:43So, if you have to go, I get it.
36:45I wanted you to know that you have exceeded all of my...
36:48Expectations.
36:53And I'm terrified to see you go.
36:55Because I cannot make sure this place without you.
36:58Mickey.
37:00I made plans.
37:01I know.
37:04I know.
37:06I get it.
37:07I just wanted to tell you, because I think if I didn't,
37:10I would regret it for a long time.
37:11I...
37:12Come on.
37:20I couldn't believe it.
37:32Wow, this guy's been gone, what, two days?
37:47Look at us.
37:50We gin up all this gloss about who we are.
37:54We're nothing but animals.
37:56No grace, no honor, just a bunch of wild animals eating each other.
38:01You okay?
38:02I never thought I was one who needed fairy tales told to me before I put my head to a pillow at night,
38:09but I've just been telling myself stories all these years about who we were, how it was.
38:14They're not fairy tales.
38:16I was little, but I remember potlucks at Bill and Bernice's looking for sea glass on Moonstone Beach.
38:23You said they were mermaids' tears.
38:26Mom told me that.
38:27That sounds like something she'd say.
38:36Dad, what Irv did, that was about him.
38:39You created a community, a family.
38:41Yeah, but everything's changed.
38:46There's no going back.
38:50All right.
38:50Then move forward.
39:02You drive me up the damn wall, Dad.
39:05You're still one of the good ones.
39:06Go ahead on my own.
39:08Go ahead on my own.
39:15Go ahead on my own.
39:18Sand City bus.
39:20Kicking up dust.
39:23Kicking up dust.
39:27Before the sun comes up.
39:29What's on the agenda, boss?
39:56You're six minutes late.
39:58Okay.
39:58Before the sun comes on.
