00:00Marshall hollered gold and the rush began. Rival families, conflicting claims, yes siree, the thirst for gold made people do crazy things. Sometimes it even got bloodied. Not everyone who discovered gold lived to tell about it.
00:13Like that guy?
00:18Is that an actor?
00:30Your wife.
00:38Of course, your wife.
00:41Nora.
00:43Nice to meet you.
00:44You too.
00:46So you live in Oakland?
00:49I do, yeah. I'm a pediatric nurse. I just took a few days off to help Nate pack up.
00:53Right, Nate. Which is totally what spouses do.
01:00I'm gonna let you two, uh, I have to go.
01:03Well, uh, this is your office, Mickey, so maybe we should...
01:07Right. I'm gonna...
01:08And, uh, you want this.
01:14Uh, which reminds me, uh, you should schedule your exit interview, Nate.
01:21Nice to meet you, Nora.
01:30You guys, Boone is freaking married.
01:33I am in a state of shock.
01:35Is she nice?
01:35Is she hot?
01:36Yes, total smoke show.
01:37More to the point, how has he worked here for two years and hadn't said anything?
01:41It's Boone. He's even less of a sharer than you.
01:43I mean, how well do any of us even know him?
01:45We could pull his personnel file.
01:47That would be completely improper. We are not doing that.
01:49Suit yourself. I mean, he's already got one foot out the door.
01:52Oh, speaking of which, we're throwing him a goodbye party tonight at your house.
01:55My house?
01:56Well, my place is too small, and we're not doing lunchtime cupcakes at the XO.
01:59It's Boone.
02:01Are you still ducking, Travis?
02:03Wait, what's going on with you and Travis?
02:04It's nothing. It's just...
02:06Travis couldn't deal with seeing Cassidy arrest Skye, and Cassidy couldn't deal with Travis not dealing.
02:10Am I wrong?
02:12I just need some time to figure some stuff out. That's all.
02:15Besides, we're not talking about me and Travis. We're talking about Boone.
02:18It's a secret.
02:20We just got a call. A body's been found in the Eel River just past the bend.
02:23It looks like a homicide.
02:25What's your dad doing?
02:33Dad.
02:35Mickey.
02:36What are you doing here?
02:36It's Bill.
02:37What? Bill Wambach?
02:39Yeah. Somebody shot him in the back. Irv called me. I drove down.
02:42Oh, my God, Dad. I'm so sorry.
02:44Yeah.
02:44The Wambachs are an old ranching family. They've been in Edgewater for over a hundred years.
02:50Show some respect! Put away your cameras!
02:53Dad.
02:53Just wait here.
02:59A guide and a couple of tourists dragged up his body to see if he could save them.
03:04Best of intentions, but...
03:05They trampled the crime scene. Now hope for a sheer print.
03:13Four entry wounds on the back.
03:15Those powder burns on his shirt.
03:16This killer was standing close.
03:21This was an execution.
03:22Hi. I'm Deputy Campbell. I got this summons, but I think it's a mistake. It's for a citation that I wrote.
03:32It's not a mistake. The defendant decided to challenge. It's a moving violation.
03:35Next, we have Mr. Lewis's case. Mr. Lewis, give us a wave if you're here.
03:40Great. And the ticketing officer, Deputy Campbell.
03:43Right here, Your Honor. Excellent. Representing Mr. Lewis, we have Mr. Dwyer.
03:47Uh, actually, I'll be taking this one, Your Honor.
03:49Mr. Fraley, I'm surprised. You're doing traffic tickets now.
03:53Well, there's something about this case that's very near and dear to me, Your Honor.
03:57Very well. You may proceed.
04:00Bill's truck is in the parking lot. It's being processed, but there's no houses around.
04:03No reported gunshots, so there's no one to really canvas.
04:06All right, let's look at his business dealings, his circle of friends, and let's talk to his wife, Bernice.
04:11See if he had any enemies.
04:12Enemies? When I used to bring you and Sharon Fish in this very river, who taught you how to clean the trough?
04:18Dad.
04:18When Skye's soccer field was flooded, her team needed a place to play.
04:22Who cleared off a patch in his field?
04:24Bill didn't have enemies in Hedgewater. Bill was Hedgewater.
04:27Bill!
04:28No!
04:29Bernice.
04:30No!
04:30Bernice.
04:31He's gone. He's gone. He's gone.
04:36You better find the son of a bitch that did this before I do.
04:43This morning, he was in the kitchen reading the box scores, pouring his coffee.
04:48Now he's gone.
04:50I'm so sorry, Bernice.
04:51I know this must seem soon, but did Bill have any enemies? Anybody who'd want to hurt him?
04:56No. No enemies.
04:57About a week ago, a man came to the house asking if we were interested in selling the ranch.
05:02Bill said no.
05:04I was born on this ranch, he told the fella, and one day I'll...
05:10Anyway, the man went away.
05:12We didn't think anything more of it.
05:13And then a few days later...
05:15Bill found a bullet in his mailbox.
05:16Yeah, I got one, too.
05:18We were getting calls at all hours.
05:20You should think about selling. Maybe it's not safe for you here.
05:23And then they'd hang up.
05:24And then, last week, the shed caught fire.
05:27Mason and Irv helped Bill put it out, but I was terrified.
05:30There's these cartels moving in.
05:31They just want to muscle us out.
05:32It's not going to work.
05:34Bill wasn't leaving, and we're not leaving.
05:37Bernice, this man who came to your door, can you describe him for us?
05:40Well, he looked normal. Clean-shaven. Eyes-odd shirt.
05:45That doesn't exactly scream cartel.
05:47Did he leave his information?
05:48Not that I know of.
05:49What, you think they carry business cards?
05:51Those people do not leave a paper trail.
05:53Now, half the growers between here and Deadwater have gotten threats.
05:57And if people are getting threats, they should be coming to us.
05:59Yes, they should be. But they won't.
06:04But stay strong.
06:05And just know, we are doing everything we can to find whoever did this.
06:09So, have you also been getting threats, Dad?
06:11Not yet.
06:13But you can guarantee I'll be ready.
06:14Mickey! Mickey!
06:15Hey!
06:17I didn't want to say anything.
06:20I'm not even sure that I should.
06:21Mason, if you know something.
06:23It's probably nothing.
06:25Like, I feel bad even mentioning it, but...
06:28Bill and Bernice have been fighting.
06:30Like, a lot.
06:31Eight years I've worked here, it's never been like that.
06:34Bernice wanted to sell the ranch like she really, really wanted to sell.
06:37Bill, he just couldn't hear it.
06:38He just kept saying Edgewater is my home.
06:42Thanks, it's good you told us.
06:46We should look at Bernice.
06:48Like, you're crazy.
06:49I think you're barking up the wrong tree.
06:50No, this is the same stuff he pulled in the sky.
06:52See, it's a statistical fact, okay?
06:53If a murder victim is married, the most likely culprit is the spouse.
06:57Sure, they've been together a long time, but we don't know what goes on behind closed doors.
07:00Or what secrets they might be keeping.
07:02Look, I agree with you.
07:03Every marriage is a black box.
07:05Some more than others.
07:06Why don't we hang back, wait for ballistics?
07:08Dad, I want you to talk to Irv.
07:10Him and Bill were tight.
07:11There may be more to these threats than he's saying.
07:13All right.
07:14I'll let you know when I find out.
07:17Your dad's a deputy now?
07:19Look, I've got to give him something to do, or he's going to find something, and it's not going to be good.
07:27Deputy Campbell, you said you saw my client roll through a stop sign while looking at his phone.
07:32He certainly rolled through.
07:34You had eyes on his car the whole time.
07:36My eyes weren't the problem.
07:37His were.
07:38They were glued to his phone.
07:40Just so happens, he received a very important phone call.
07:44Maybe some calls shouldn't be ignored.
07:46Stop signs shouldn't be ignored either.
07:50It's against the law to ignore them, which is why I issued the citation.
07:53No one's arguing that, deputy.
07:54But my client's cell phone use was necessary to prevent harm.
07:58The call was from his child's doctor.
08:00She had critical and time-sensitive information to share with him, as you'll see in these phone records, Your Honor.
08:07Dr. Patel, this is your child's doctor.
08:10Yes, Your Honor.
08:11She was calling with test results.
08:12I was pretty concerned.
08:13I remember what that's like.
08:15I'm going to dismiss the charges.
08:18In the future, stop at the damn stop sign, Mr. Lewis.
08:21Thank you, Mr. Fraley.
08:23You too, Deputy Campbell.
08:30You don't have to get up to your neck in a murder case.
08:33You're out of here at the end of the week.
08:34Let me tell you when Cassidy or Whitley...
08:36No, thanks, but I want to help you solve it.
08:38I can stick around for a few days if I need to.
08:40Oh, yeah?
08:41What about Nora?
08:41She's going to be okay with that?
08:44Sure.
08:44Yeah, it's no big deal.
08:46All right, dude, what is the deal?
08:48We've worked together for two years.
08:49You don't mention you're married?
08:51And don't say I didn't ask.
08:52This is me, asking.
08:54I don't like discussing my personal life.
08:56Boone.
08:57Aren't you the one who's always saying that we have to keep the person and the professional separate?
09:01I believe the word firewall has been used.
09:03I...
09:04Nah.
09:06Fine.
09:07Maybe.
09:08In that case, I'll go see where we are with ballistics.
09:15Cassie, Cassie, wait.
09:16Oh, this is my job, Travis.
09:17I don't appreciate you making a dame of it.
09:19How else am I supposed to talk to you?
09:20You won't take my calls.
09:21You won't take my pets.
09:21So you ambush me at work?
09:23That is deranged.
09:25Oh, God, it is deranged.
09:28I'm so sorry.
09:28Look, I know I screwed up.
09:30I know you were just doing your job when you arrested Skye.
09:32I'm over that, Travis.
09:34Not even about that anymore.
09:36Look, I have a lot on my mind.
09:38And I need time and space to figure it out.
09:41So if I'm not picking up your calls, it's because I'm not ready to talk to you.
09:44It's a stop sign.
09:45Maybe your client can explain that to you.
09:53I'm telling you, it's one of them cartels.
09:55And if we don't watch our backs, we'll be next.
09:57You know, I don't know.
10:01I've been thinking about what Boone said in your bullet in the mailbox stuff.
10:05That reads cartel.
10:07But the guys in polo shirts showing up, knocking on doors, making formal offers on Bill's property.
10:13Come on.
10:14A wolf in yuppie clothes is still a wolf.
10:16True.
10:16And these guys are pouring in from all over.
10:18China, Bulgaria, Central America.
10:20They're armed and they're dangerous.
10:22They're not here to be good neighbors.
10:23They're here to snatch up our land.
10:25Hell, I caught a couple of Bulgarian guys sniffing around my grow last week and I had to chase them off with a shotgun.
10:29Really?
10:29These outsiders want to destroy everything that we built.
10:33Outsiders?
10:35Irv, that's what they called us growers when we showed up here in Edgewater.
10:38Outsiders.
10:40It was Bill and it was ranchers like him that welcomed us in.
10:44Well, times have changed and if we don't draw the line now, the community that we built will be gone.
10:56Oh.
10:58Bill was shot at point blank range with .450 caliber rounds from a Desert Eagle.
11:02Statement gun.
11:03Cartel favorite.
11:05Oh, hey, come on in.
11:06Did you talk to Irv?
11:07Yeah.
11:07Yeah, I just know.
11:08He said that some Bulgarian cartel looking guys came by his place last week.
11:12He ran them off.
11:13His land was right next to Bill's.
11:16Bulgarian cartel looking guys.
11:18Our murder weapon is definitely their style.
11:20Yeah.
11:20They like to hang at that MMA gym right off of Route 9.
11:22Mm-hmm.
11:23Might be worth paying them a visit.
11:24It's not the kind of place two deputies can just walk in and start asking questions.
11:27You can't, but I can.
11:28Dad, forget it.
11:30I can walk in there.
11:31Whether they shot Bill or not, these cartel guys are suspected of a dozen murders up and down the state.
11:36You're not going in there.
11:37Although.
11:38Boone.
11:38Let the man speak.
11:42Look, the Bulgarians will know Wes by reputation, and he could get in there under a false pretense and maybe try and get some information out of him.
11:48No way.
11:48It's too dangerous.
11:49Well, I would say it's risky.
11:51It's not dangerous.
11:52Yeah, thank you, Boone.
11:53Besides, he'll be wearing a wire if he gets into trouble with his pull.
11:55Whoa, whoa, whoa.
11:55Hold on.
11:56No, no.
11:56You lost me there, pal.
11:58I've never worn a wire, and I'm not about to start now.
12:00All right, then you're not going in there.
12:01Look, I'm not a narc.
12:03This discussion is over.
12:04If you won't wear a wire, old man, you're not going in, which is fine by me anyway.
12:08This whole thing is against my better judgment.
12:10No, no, no, no.
12:11Okay, look, Wes, Mickey's right.
12:12Look, we got to have your back, all right?
12:14You old school growers might have a code, but these new players, no way.
12:20It's for Bill.
12:26All right, say something, Wes.
12:28I feel like a narc.
12:31I got him.
12:32You got him?
12:32Got him.
12:33Okay.
12:33All right, Dad.
12:34Give me a word.
12:36A word?
12:37Yeah, if you're in trouble in there, you say the word, and we come in hot.
12:42Moonstone.
12:46Wish me luck.
12:47Good luck.
12:48How's he doing?
13:11Sorry, Mickey.
13:12If things go south, and I don't come out of there, you don't want to hear your old man dying.
13:18That's it.
13:39I'm pulling him out.
13:40No, Mickey.
13:41Wait, if we go busting in there, we don't just get a wet shot, we get all of a shot.
13:45The best thing to do is just sit tight.
13:49All right, if he's not out in 10 minutes, I'm going in.
13:52What the hell do you want?
14:11We don't know you.
14:12Well, you should.
14:13I'm Wes Fox.
14:14I haven't tried it myself, but I hear your flower sets a high bar for the rest of us.
14:27You're damn right it does.
14:28I've spent 40 years refining my strength.
14:31And you're trapped up in dead water.
14:32Mm-hmm.
14:34That's good land.
14:36You're looking to sell.
14:38No.
14:39But if I was, it wouldn't be to you.
14:41No, I'm here on behalf of the third party.
14:44Bernice Wombach.
14:46See, she doesn't want to end up like her husband, washed up on a riverbank with a few leaks in his back.
14:51You and your boys left there.
14:54Where's the property?
14:55Don't play dumb with me.
14:57It's the Wombach ranch.
14:59Now, she's prepared to sit down and negotiate, but no more violence.
15:13No.
15:15It's no good.
15:16There's no tree cover.
15:17It's all exposed.
15:17That's what hoop houses are for.
15:19We grow cushion critical, out of our strengths.
15:23That's no good to us.
15:27Well, your loss.
15:30Huh?
15:30One more thing on that.
15:39Ow!
15:39Oh, hold still, you big baby.
15:41Is there any bones that need resetting?
15:42I got first dibs.
15:43I can't believe you.
15:45Look, they would have found your wire first thing.
15:48You could have gotten yourself killed.
15:49Yeah, well, I didn't.
15:50So relax.
15:51What's your read?
15:52Were they involved?
15:53I can't stand those sons of bitches.
15:55But they, uh, they grow outdoor strains.
15:58And Bill's ranch is not going to be any use to them.
16:00So no, no, I don't think they did it.
16:02Great.
16:02All that for a dead end.
16:03You had to rule them out.
16:06Yeah, no kidding.
16:07You're welcome.
16:10All right, let's call it.
16:11Get some rest.
16:12Come back fresh.
16:13Perfect.
16:13They'll give me more time to set up for Boone's going away party.
16:16Will you stop cleaning?
16:34I'm not cleaning.
16:35I'm tidying.
16:36Do you realize most people find hosting a party preferable to investigating a murder?
16:42Have you had a chance to talk to Nora yet?
16:44No.
16:44But I'm so happy for Cam and Greg.
16:47They found a surrogate.
16:49A surrogate, like, for a baby?
16:52They've been looking for a year.
16:53Did you not know?
16:54They're your deputies, Mickey.
16:56I guess I forgot.
16:57Okay.
16:58Mingle.
16:59Did you call him yet?
17:21Did Mickey ever talk to you about her breakup with Travis?
17:24No.
17:25But Gina made sure I knew all the sort of details.
17:28It sounded gnarly.
17:29Yes and no.
17:30There was a lot of hard feelings.
17:32I think Mickey especially wanted it to work.
17:35But they always respected each other and they found a way to stay friends.
17:39I mean, how many people do you know have a picture of their ex on display?
17:42Yeah, it's a little weird.
17:46This is the guy who kept his marriage a secret for two years.
17:49Walked into that one.
17:50Chip.
18:00Oh, no thanks.
18:02But this addition is so cool.
18:04I mean, was Skye an Oz kid?
18:06We read a few of them, but then we stopped.
18:07They completely freaked her out.
18:09Well, yeah, because they're totally freaky.
18:11But my son was obsessed, so we ran the whole series.
18:14So?
18:14Yeah, Henry.
18:15He's at Sacramento State.
18:16Which is so crazy to me, because he was just in his footy pajamas reading Osmo of Oz.
18:20Makes your head spin.
18:21Yeah, it does.
18:23So, what about Skye?
18:24Is she in college?
18:25Oh, she's taking some time off.
18:27She's backpacking right now in the Sierras with friends.
18:30Wow, very cool.
18:31Yeah.
18:35You know, I just wanted to clarify, Nate is not Henry's dad.
18:40I mean, just in case you were wondering at this point, nothing would surprise me.
18:45Yeah.
18:46Excuse me.
18:48Of course.
18:54Hey.
18:54Hi.
18:55Come in.
18:56Wow.
18:57You're having a party.
18:59You don't have parties.
19:01I know.
19:01I didn't have a choice.
19:02It's for Boone.
19:02Why are you here?
19:03Wait, is Cassidy here?
19:04I can't do this to her twice in one day.
19:06What are you talking about?
19:07Oh, I'm an idiot.
19:08I should go.
19:08Travis, why are you here?
19:10All right, look, I know it's totally inappropriate for me to ask you about my relationship with Cassidy.
19:14But can you ask me about your relationship with Cassidy?
19:16Hmm.
19:18Only because it beats refilling the chips for the 11th time.
19:22Okay.
19:23Um, she told me she needs some space.
19:25So give her space.
19:26Right.
19:27But you didn't hear about what...
19:28I don't need to, Travis.
19:29I know you.
19:30Your heart moves so fast.
19:32Not everyone is like that.
19:34Some hearts move a little slower.
19:35You mean like yours?
19:38We're not talking about mine.
19:40Cassidy is asking for space.
19:42Give her space.
19:42Well, this is pretty much my worst nightmare.
19:59Thank you, Gina, for organizing and to Mickey for hosting your worst nightmare.
20:04Yeah.
20:06And, uh, uh, it's nice to be at a party and know where the bathroom is.
20:12Well, where everything is, actually, thanks to that search warrant.
20:15Oh.
20:17Yo.
20:18Too soon?
20:19Um, this, uh, this town, Edgewater, it's a special place.
20:31You know, I've moved around a bit and seen my share of departments, and I can honestly
20:35say that this is the only place that feels like home.
20:39Um, it's been an honor working with you guys.
20:44If I have one regret, it's that maybe, um, maybe, that maybe I didn't live up to certain
20:56expectations.
21:00But I do know this.
21:01I'm going to miss every single person in this room, because you guys are what makes this
21:04place special.
21:06You love a stranger.
21:07Become a friend.
21:09So.
21:11Thanks for that.
21:13For everything, really.
21:18Where's the music?
21:36What you looking at?
21:37Uh, nothing.
21:38Right.
21:39Definitely not Boone's personnel file, because that would be completely improper.
21:44Fine.
21:44It's a service record.
21:45It's from down in Oakland.
21:46Multiple accommodations for bravery.
21:48Want to see my favorite part?
21:51Boone's partner in Oakland was Jason Roth.
21:54He awarded Boone the Medal of Valor.
21:56There is a picture.
21:57Oh, wait.
21:57That's Nora.
21:58Yeah.
21:58Okay.
21:59Now, here are Boone's dependents.
22:02Nora and her son, Henry Roth.
22:05The same last name.
22:07Wait.
22:07So, Nora was married to Boone's partner?
22:09Did they have an affair?
22:10Well, if I knew that, I could retire happy.
22:12Hey!
22:13Two black coffees coming right up.
22:17So, I know you don't think that we should look into Bernice.
22:22But you went ahead and did anywhere.
22:23Pretty much.
22:24I just talked to your buddy, Punch.
22:26How is her favorite real estate agent slash Rotary Club president?
22:29Great.
22:30He's got a hot new listing.
22:31The Wambach Ranch.
22:32Bill just died.
22:33It's a little quick, don't you think?
22:34Mason mentioned that Bernice wanted to sell.
22:36I don't know.
22:37Is it all that surprising?
22:38Maybe not.
22:38But Bernice told Punch to start soliciting offers three weeks ago.
22:42Before Bill died.
22:43And then she specifically asked Punch not to say anything about it to Bill.
22:46Yeah, that is odd.
22:47I still think it's a reach, but let's go talk to her.
22:53Boone.
22:56Tarrant's office.
23:05Bernice.
23:14Clear.
23:16The kitchen's clear.
23:18Bernice.
23:25Bernice.
23:26Bernice.
23:33Bernice.
23:33Bernice.
23:42Morning, Pete.
23:43Coffee's on.
23:52Ben.
23:53Ben.
23:53I was upstairs.
24:13Somebody kicked in the door.
24:15I grabbed Bill's shotgun and I hid in the closet.
24:18I didn't have my phone.
24:19I couldn't call anybody.
24:21I thought I was going to...
24:23You did great.
24:24Whoever did this should feel lucky they didn't stumble in on a mountain woman with a shotgun.
24:28Give them both barrels, Bill always said.
24:32House is clear.
24:35We spoke to Punch and he mentioned you asked him to list the ranch a few weeks ago.
24:40Now, you told us that Bill refused to sell.
24:42So is it true?
24:43So is it true?
24:44Are you selling?
24:45I hated to go behind Bill's back.
24:47But I don't feel safe here.
24:49And my Wilfred Wombach was the stubbornest damn man I ever met.
24:54And the best.
24:56He just couldn't face that the old days are gone.
24:58So many of our friends are selling.
25:00Cheryl and David.
25:01The Sloans.
25:03Irv.
25:03Irv?
25:04Are you sure?
25:05He made it sound like he would never sell.
25:07Well, sure.
25:08It has to sound tough in front of the boys.
25:09But he's closing escrow in a week.
25:12I know because of the water rights.
25:15Water rights?
25:16We've got an aquifer that runs beneath our ranch.
25:18But Irv's place is dry as a bone.
25:21For as long as I could remember, Bill just let Irv divert the water for his own grow.
25:25And Irv would pay him what he could.
25:27If Irv's grow relies on Bill's aquifer for water, the property would be useless to a new buyer without the same deal.
25:37So maybe Bill made it down with the new buyers.
25:39Yeah, maybe.
25:39But they need more than a handshake agreement on the chain of title.
25:42Mm-hmm.
25:43You know what?
25:46Mickey, hey.
25:47Hey, Cassidy.
25:47I need you to pull the chain of title on the Wombach and McCall properties, grants, easements, anything on water rights.
25:53Everything you can find, okay?
25:54Water rights.
25:55On it.
25:57Hey.
26:00Hey, Chad, did you know that Irv was planning on selling his land?
26:03No.
26:03There's no way that's true.
26:05According to Bernice, it is.
26:06Well, I'll just ask him.
26:08He's sitting right here.
26:09We're at the meetup.
26:09No, don't.
26:11Why don't you just try to keep him there as long as you can?
26:13Yeah.
26:14Sure.
26:15I'll pick it up at the store on the way home.
26:18All right?
26:18Okay, I'll see you at the house.
26:21Is that Mickey on the phone?
26:22Yeah.
26:24Sounds like maybe she wanted you to ask me something.
26:26Yeah.
26:26I want to know about those Bulgarians trying to buy your house.
26:30She wants to know if you got their names.
26:32Huh.
26:33No.
26:35No names.
26:36No.
26:36You know, I never asked you.
26:42Your daughter being sheriff and all.
26:46You ever get her to look the other way on something?
26:49No.
26:49So a few years back, when Fred was sheriff, and Nicky and Fred confiscated a bunch of my plants.
26:56Well, they didn't touch any of yours.
26:59I wasn't even speaking to my daughter two years ago.
27:04And you know damn well there is no way I would ever drop a dime to a badge.
27:09No.
27:11Just live under her roof.
27:12Here's to Bill.
27:18Our friend.
27:29Okay, I pulled everything that I could find on Bill and Irv's properties.
27:33Sure enough, there's an easement establishing shared water rights.
27:36When was it signed?
27:37A month ago.
27:38Thanks so fresh.
27:39William Wambach.
27:40And Irving McCaw.
27:43Wait, wait, wait.
27:43Bill's legal name is Wilfred, not William.
27:46Irv must afford a signature.
27:47Another?
27:54Another?
27:57No, I should go.
27:58Yeah, me too.
28:09You got something to tell me, Irv?
28:12You.
28:13You did it, didn't you?
28:17This is how it's going to go.
28:27Either I can call the sheriff, or you can get in my truck and we will drive in together.
28:31You're going to turn me over to the cops?
28:34What the hell happened to you, Wes?
28:36You killed our friend.
28:38But what the hell happened to you?
28:42So what's it going to be?
28:47Okay.
28:50All right.
28:53I'll drive you.
28:54You get in.
29:07I'm sorry, Wes.
29:08I'm sorry, Wes.
29:08I'm sorry, Wes.
29:22Get in.
29:23Get in.
29:23Get in.
29:28What?
29:28Dad. Dad, booted Nile Hamlet.
29:43He's like hell. He's not even armed.
29:47Hey! Hey!
29:54I can't look at this river without thinking of Connie.
29:57Summer of 76.
29:59I was all down here fishing and boating.
30:01You know what I'm going to remember about this river from this day forward?
30:04Bill laying dead on the bank of it.
30:06And I want to know why.
30:09What's done is done.
30:11What does it matter now?
30:12It matters because he was your friend for 40 years.
30:16Yeah, that's right.
30:1840 years. He shook my hand.
30:20He told me we were going to share the water.
30:22I'm broke with.
30:24And all these damn cartels coming in here and big pharma moving in.
30:27Growers like you and me.
30:29We're done.
30:30You did it for money.
30:31Selling my land is the only way that I can survive.
30:34And I found a buyer willing to pay cash.
30:37But Bill said no, no, no.
30:39He wouldn't sign over the water rights.
30:41My deal's with you, not any new fellas.
30:45He turned his back on me.
30:46And you used it for target practice.
30:49He gave me no choice.
30:52I got nothing west.
30:53You had a brother and you shot him in the back.
30:56That's what you had.
31:03I couldn't look him in the eye.
31:04Because you're a coward.
31:09You always did keep that cold under your seat.
31:14Gun.
31:15Dad, drop the gun!
31:16No!
31:17No!
31:18No!
31:25Remember me like I was.
31:27Drop the gun!
31:28No!
31:29I don't believe it.
31:44Irv was family.
31:46He was broke.
31:47He needed to sell to leave Edgewater.
31:49But why do you have to go through my bill?
31:52So does that mean that Irv broke into my house?
31:55Irv was at the meet up with my dad.
31:57So was it the cartel?
32:00We don't believe so.
32:02So all those scare tactics,
32:03the bullet in our mailbox,
32:04the shed catching fire,
32:05who was that?
32:09We don't know yet,
32:10but we're gonna keep looking.
32:20You're gonna need a smaller box.
32:22You should see his house.
32:24Shouldn't take more than an hour
32:25to pack up the last two years of his life.
32:28And that is so neat.
32:29He won't buy or do a single thing for himself
32:31unless somebody makes him.
32:32Oh, and Jason.
32:34Jason was the same way.
32:36Boone's partner, Jason.
32:37And Henry's dad.
32:38We were together for 15 years.
32:39Is he still down in Oakland?
32:41In, in a way.
32:42St. Mary's cemetery.
32:44I'm so sorry.
32:45No.
32:46It's okay.
32:47He was dying for a long time.
32:49Maybe since the day he got his badge, actually.
32:53What you see on this job, it is not normal.
33:00No, it's not.
33:01And then it just built up.
33:03So he would have a beer and then a vodka, a drink,
33:06and then a whole bottle.
33:08Nate was his best friend.
33:10I mean, we tried.
33:11We tried to save him, but there was just nothing we could do.
33:16And Jason and I, we never got married.
33:17I mean, what's a piece of paper, right?
33:20But I couldn't touch his death benefits or his pension.
33:22So Henry and I had nothing until Nate-
33:24Married you.
33:25Yeah.
33:26He saved me.
33:27Right.
33:28He's always, always been there for me, even when he moved here.
33:31How could I not know that about him?
33:33He's ashamed, I think.
33:35Nate feels like he failed, Jason.
33:38Everything he's ever done for me since Jason died
33:40is him trying to make up for that.
33:42But there's more there than just guilt, right?
33:44I mean, you guys are together.
33:45Uh, I mean, there's a lot of feelings there, but no.
33:49All the hurt doesn't really leave a lot of room for anything else.
33:56Thanks.
33:59Thanks for coming.
34:00Yes, I...
34:01Listen, I'm so, so sorry about yesterday.
34:03Pulling you into court, it was...
34:05Adeline, I don't know what I was thinking.
34:10Remember when you and Mickey had me over for enchiladas?
34:12The two of you were cooking, you ended up...
34:14You ended up...
34:15Oh, I almost sliced my finger off, yeah.
34:17Mickey wanted you to go to the hospital.
34:18You didn't want to go, and you two started fighting about it.
34:22She was being ridiculous.
34:23I started feeling really uncomfortable.
34:25And then Mickey said, well, maybe you'd be lucky.
34:28The doctors would pull your head out of your ass
34:30after they stitched up your finger.
34:33And you started laughing so hard.
34:35Yeah.
34:36Yeah.
34:37And so did she, and...
34:38And then so did I.
34:40It's not a scar.
34:42Yeah.
34:46I wanted that.
34:48I wanted a relationship that felt safe.
34:51I'm not saying it was perfect.
34:54What...
34:55What are you saying?
34:57It was real.
34:59And after everything that happened with Skye, the fight that we had...
35:05I realized I have two settings in relationships.
35:09I'm either terrified, or I'm hiding.
35:12I don't know how to do real yet.
35:15I want what you and Mickey had.
35:20But I have a lot of work to do myself first.
35:25I'm sorry, Travis.
35:26Cassie.
35:46It's now a good time for my exit interview.
35:58Thinking we'll hit the road early tomorrow.
36:05You know, I never thought, um, I'd become sheriff.
36:08Never really wanted it.
36:11Then Fred died, and it's like, I didn't want to let him down, you know?
36:15So I put up a wall.
36:16My job on one side, and my life, my mess, on the other.
36:21I know there are some people in this town who think I don't belong in this office.
36:25Mickey.
36:26Those people are idiots. I'm a damn good sheriff.
36:28In part because of that wall.
36:30But I'm not a great sheriff.
36:33Not as good as Fred was.
36:35In part, also because of that wall.
36:38So, if you have to go, I get it.
36:40I wanted you to know that you have exceeded all of my...
36:45expectations.
36:47And I'm terrified to see a girl.
36:50Because I can't come back to this place without you.
36:52Mickey.
36:54I made plans.
36:56I know.
36:59I know.
37:01I get it.
37:03I just wanted to tell you because I think if I didn't, I would regret it for a long time.
37:06I know that you'd let your family go to this house.
37:07I know.
37:09I don't want to know.
37:10I'm going to know that you've got it.
37:12I don't need to know it for a long time.
37:15I was going to know it to go, but...
37:16Do you know?
37:17I'm not going to know it's gonna be too long, because we're getting some tools.
37:19Wow, this guy's been gone, what, two days?
37:43Look at us.
37:45We gin up all this gloss about who we are.
37:49We're nothing but animals.
37:51No grace, no honor, just a bunch of wild animals eating each other.
37:56You okay?
37:57I never thought I was one who needed fairy tales told to me before I put my head to a pillow at night,
38:04but I've just been telling myself stories all these years about who we were, how it was.
38:09They're not fairy tales.
38:11I was little, but I remember potlucks at Bill and Bernice's looking for sea glass on Moonstone Beach.
38:17You said they were mermaids' tears.
38:21Mom told me that.
38:26That sounds like something she'd say.
38:31Dad, what Irv did, that was about him.
38:34You created a community, a family.
38:36Yeah, but everything's changed.
38:41There's no going back.
38:45All right.
38:52Then move forward.
38:53You drive me up the damn wall, Dad.
39:00You're still one of the good ones.
39:01Go ahead on my own.
39:03Go ahead on my own.
39:10Go ahead on my own.
39:13San City bus.
39:15Kicking up dust.
39:18Kicking up dust.
39:21Before the sun comes up.
39:24What's on the agenda, boss?
39:51You're six minutes late.
39:53Before the sun comes up.
