[MAN.]
I need my money, but it's not just about the money.

I just don't know what else I can do.
I was robbed.

He's getting away! Stop! [GUNSHOT.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GRUNTING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[VIC.]
You didn't just rob a bank, did you? Nope.
I might need to.
What are you doing? Making contingency plans.
- By burying guns and money? - Yep.
So I guess you're getting ready for the zombie apocalypse.
Nope.
Tucker Baggett.
He's coming after my home.
What does that mean? That whole wrongful death suit, it's him just trying to ruin me so I have to sell my land.
He wants to build a golf course here.
Well, I'm not letting that happen.
So you're gonna hide in the woods and shoot at him? I don't know what I'm gonna do.
I can't just sit here and take it.
I got to do something.
It's my home.
It's all I have.
It's not all you have.
You have your daughter.
You've got Henry.
And you have me.
You have your job.
Which you're not doing very well right now.
I came to get you.
There was a bank robbery in Powder River Junction.
We should have been there 15 minutes ago.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Right.
So help me fill this in.
[SCOFFS.]
[CHANTING IN NATIVE LANGUAGE.]
[DOG BARKING.]
[MANDY.]
Good morning.
What Why Why am I [MANDY.]
Sleeping outside? You were a train wreck last night.
What do you mean? Well, you passed out in the sweat, which is pretty normal for a newb, and I would have taken you home, but I don't know where you live.
And then when I tried to bring you inside, you woke up and started hitting me.
And then you just started talking crazy, so I dropped your pain in the ass here.
Come on.
You need coffee.
Hey, Mandy.
Is it normal to see things during a sweat? Like hallucinations? Don't you mean visions? What did you see? Like an animal, or something? [EERIE NOTES PLAY.]
Uh, I don't know.
I saw an owl.
That must be your spirit animal.
Wow, dude.
That is not normal for a newb.
Usually, I mean, the only thing I've really seen are, like, weird colors and stuff.
Thank you for bringing me back here.
I'm really sorry for hitting you.
Yeah.
That was nuts.
So, what did you see? Uh, did I have horns or fangs or something? You were just you.
But you were you were cleaning blood.
[EERIE NOTES PLAY.]
My friend Henry was hanging.
Hanging what? No, hanging.
Like from a noose.
He wasn't dead, but That is dark.
You You need to talk to someone that can interpret that shit.
I don't know much, but I know that shit's not good.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[FERG.]
What took you guys so long? Where's the victim, Ferg? He's on his way to the hospital.
- In what condition? - I don't know.
The paramedics were gone by the time I got here.
But the shooting happened over there.
Ferg, finish taking the statements from our witnesses.
Don't let anybody take any photographs.
He had, like, shark eyes, you know? Like, they were dead and emotionless.
It was chilling, but we get trained for situations like this, so I kept my shit together.
Pardon my French.
[CHUCKLES.]
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Sheriff's department.
I understand you had a robbery.
It was Cowboy Bill.
From the news.
- Who got shot? - No.
Al Chambers got shot, our security guard.
The paramedics took him to the hospital already.
Their response time was impressive.
We're here now, and we got some questions we need to ask, off-camera.
[SCOFFS.]
You sure this is where it's supposed to be? That's what Jim said when he called it in.
And Jim couldn't wait for us? Well, he was late for work, but he said it was here.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
Let me see if the registration is still in the truck.
No need.
I know that truck.
Well, who does it belong to? Henry Standing Bear.
Go call it in.
All right.
Henry! Henry! It was just like they've been saying on the news.
Pretend I haven't seen the news, and why don't you tell me what it was like? So, we had just opened.
Cowboy Bill was, like, the second or third customer of the day.
I could tell something wasn't quite right, then he pushed over the note.
Do you have the note? Um, I guess I probably left it up at the counter, but I remember what it said.
It said, "Don't look at me.
Don't say a word.
Don't hit the panic button.
This is a robbery.
Put all of the 50s and 100s from your cash drawer into this bag.
- No 20s.
" - That's a good memory.
I don't think I'll ever forget it.
He was calm and polite, but I could tell he was capable of violence.
So you looked at him.
No, not really.
Just a couple glances, but I couldn't exactly describe him.
So how could you tell he was capable of violence? Did you see a gun? Yeah.
Definitely.
Okay.
Anything else you remember? He was wearing gloves.
So he wouldn't have left any prints.
So, what'd he touch? Um, nothing, I guess.
Except for that note.
Right.
If I go on eBay later and see you trying to sell the Cowboy Bill robbery note, well, you're gonna be in a lot of trouble, Paula.
Oh! [CHUCKLES.]
Here it is! I guess I put it in my pocket without realizing.
Uh-huh.
- Could I make a photocopy of this? - No.
That's evidence in the possible murder of your co-worker.
Right.
Sorry.
Look, if there's anything else I can help you with There is.
I want to see the bank security videos and, uh, I need to close my account.
[MAN.]
Somebody just yelled "robbery.
" I'm following the security guard.
[AL.]
Stop! [GUNSHOT.]
[MAN.]
Holy shit! Sir! Sir! Do you have a phone? Then call 911! You're holding a phone.
Why didn't you call 911? I didn't want to miss any details.
So you have details on the shooter? You mean Cowboy Bill? No.
I'm not one of those heartless journalists who would walk away from the man bleeding on the ground.
I stayed to help.
You're a journalist.
Well, a blogger.
And, uh, a podcaster.
And a true-crime novelist.
Would I be familiar with any of your work? Well, I haven't been published yet, but, uh, the blog has been live for a few months now, and I've already got over 200 clicks.
A day? Total.
So far.
But after you post your videos from today, I imagine that'll go up.
I hope so.
Mm.
Henry! [WIND GUSTING.]
[TELEPHONE RINGING.]
[EERIE MUSIC PLAYS.]
Took out all your money? Yep.
Looks like a lot of cash.
Not really.
All she had left were 20s.
So, nobody saw the shooting.
The street was basically empty when the shots were fired, and I just got off the phone with the hospital.
Al Chambers, the security guard, went into surgery 20 minutes ago.
Hey, Walt! How you doing, Sheriff? Sawyer.
What can I do for you? I just wanted to stop by and tell you guys about a Facebook message I got this morning from one of my college buddies back east.
He says, "You made the news this morning, bro! A real-life outlaw in your county.
Hope you're not tied to any train tracks or anything.
" Then he attached a link to a blog.
"This armed attack represents an escalation in Cowboy Bill's string of bank robberies.
It's the first time he's resorted to violence.
But by the time the Absaroka County Sheriff and his deputies ambled in, the critically injured security guard was long gone.
And so was Cowboy Bill.
" Did you say a security guard was critically injured? Is it Al? Is it my husband? Did somebody from the bank call you? I saw online that Cowboy Bill shot someone.
Please tell me! Was it my Al? [SOBBING.]
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God.
Oh, my God! No! [COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS.]
Hey.
Have you seen Henry? No.
He's not in the kitchen.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, guys.
I don't know.
Henry hasn't been around for, like, a couple days.
Why are you looking for Henry? Uh, we found his truck on the rez, totaled.
And no sign of Henry.
When did you find his truck? Early this morning.
If you find him, will you call me? Why are you looking for Henry? I don't know.
I had a I had a dream.
Like a vision.
I was doing a sweat ceremony, and I just had this feeling like he's in trouble, so What did you see exactly? I saw him hanging from a tree.
Do you know what that means? It means you shouldn't have helped Darius get released from jail.
What does that have to do with anything? Darius works for Malachi, and Malachi wants to hurt Henry.
I thought Malachi was missing.
He is.
Cady, I need you to help me find Darius.
I can't do that.
Sure you can.
He's a client.
You must have an address or a phone number - where you can reach him.
- You arrested him.
Don't you have that? He wasn't at home.
And the number he gave us is fake.
I need you to give me the real one, Cady.
I can't.
You're Henry's friend.
And I'm Darius' lawyer.
Well, call me if you change your mind about which one of those is more important to you, hmm? [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANING.]
[COUGHS.]
[MUTTERING.]
Yo.
Shut the hell up, bro.
I can't even understand you.
W-Water.
Please.
Mm.
Water? [GROANS.]
He dead yet? Nah.
Talking in his sleep all night, though.
Crazy shit.
Like he's hallucinating.
[DARIUS.]
That right, Henry? You losing your mind? Ever eaten one of these burgers before? From that little place on the highway just outside the Crow Rez? Want a bite? [LAUGHS.]
No? You probably shouldn't.
Too salty.
You need water.
Oh, your body temperature is way up there.
You ain't even sweating much anymore.
That's some serious dehydration.
Well.
Don't worry.
Won't be too much longer.
Give me a call tomorrow afternoon if he's still hanging on.
So, what I'm wondering is why I heard this from a friend in Boston before I heard it from you.
I've never been in the habit of telling you about every crime that takes place around here.
Yeah.
Well, this is national news.
And I feel like an idiot not knowing what's going on.
But you do know what's going on.
You were right there at the crime scene, putting your foot in your mouth in front of the victim's wife.
Don't you try and turn this on me, Walt.
Don't you mess with me.
I told you I was gonna slow-walk your suspension, see how your trial went, but if you succeed in making this county a punch line in the national news, I'm not waiting for any verdict.
We can't help what the news writes about us.
Sure you can.
You can quit "ambling" and do your job.
Now find the man who shot one of my citizens, and by the end of the week.
Or I will not just speed up your suspension, I will make it a permanent removal from office.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
[COUGHS.]
[GROANING.]
I I want Water.
What's that? [GROANS.]
Thirsty? Want some water? [GUNSHOT.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
Okay, thanks.
Al Chambers is out of surgery.
Seriously? Let's get over there.
He's the only one who saw the shooter, so the sooner we talk to him Doctor said it might be better if we gave him a day or two before we bother him.
In that case, let's comb through the police reports of Cowboy Bill's, uh, robberies.
All of them.
The most recent one was in Utah.
Seems pretty much identical to all the others.
Hits small-town banks after they open, hands the teller a note, and asks for 50s and 100s, no 20s.
Yeah, what's that about? It says online that banks put those exploding dye packs in stacks of 20s.
I don't know if it's true, but it seems like he's done some research.
He's never hurt anybody.
Never even shown a gun.
Until today.
But he didn't show a gun to the teller.
He didn't? She said he had a gun.
Look at the tape.
Here.
Cowboy Bill has his hands on the counter the whole time.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
That's not what Paula Walsh said.
So you think she's lying or being dramatic? All I know is that shooting a guard is out of character for the Cowboy Bill I've been reading about.
So So what's changed? Why has he suddenly turned violent? Maybe he's desperate, needs the money worse than ever.
This guy doesn't seem desperate.
He's, um He's careful, he's calm, he's polite.
He takes the time to doff his hat before he leaves with the money.
Maybe he's not our Cowboy Bill.
You think he's a copycat? Cowboy Bill never made off with that much cash in any of these robberies, and copycats for them, it's about the attention and the drama.
And Cowboy Bill has been on every single news station west of the Mississippi at this point.
Actually, east of the Mississippi, too.
That's how the mayor heard about it.
Vic, call the FBI.
See if they, um See if they have information that's not in the local police reports.
Me? They hate me.
Well, they kind of hate all of us, so Ferg, call the hospital.
Um, tell them I need to speak to Al Chambers today.
They said it'd be better I know what they said.
I can't wait 24 hours.
[PANTING.]
[SIGHS.]
Thank you.
Yeah.
Sorry about that.
I thought he'd fall backwards.
Seen too many movies, I guess.
[SIGHS.]
You keep getting yourself into complicated situations, don't you? Do you have water? [TAB POPS.]
Ah.
I think you misunderstand me, Standing Bear.
I knew these men.
They're bad men.
Cowards.
The kind of assholes who'd sit in the desert and watch a man die.
Will you untie me? [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
But I don't know you.
Oh, I know you're Cheyenne, and from time to time, you show up here on Crow land.
But you're always being chased by bad people.
I got a sense you're not bad.
So I thought I'd help you out.
But then I thought, "If I set him free, it might just bring more trouble.
" So [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANS.]
I decided to leave it up to the spirits.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
Marilyn.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Please.
I need water.
If you have the pure heart of a righteous warrior, the spirits will help you get free.
Help me! Good luck, Standing Bear! I'm rooting for you.
No.
No! Come back! [GASPING.]
Come back! Come back! I should have seen it.
It's my job.
I'm supposed to stop the bad guys from taking the money.
Well, you did everything right, Al.
But I didn't.
What do you think you did wrong? I shouted out that there was a robbery.
You're not supposed to do that.
It's in all the training.
All the training in the world can't prepare you for when the real thing happens.
That's right.
The most important thing is to remember as much as you can.
- I guess.
- So, what do you remember, Al? [SIGHS.]
Just There was this asshole complaining about his ATM card, and suddenly, I look over, and Paula's waving her hands at me and pointing at this cowboy guy walking out the door, and I followed him.
You said you yelled "robbery.
" How do you know that's what happened? Well, as I was following him, I remembered all these stories about Cowboy Bill.
Me and Paula, we've been joking around for weeks about him coming in.
Anytime anyone came in with a cowboy hat, we were all like, "Oh, no, it's Cowboy Bill.
" Yeah.
So I just realized it all a little too late.
Did you get a look at his face? No.
Not really.
I just saw his back.
Come on.
Think.
What about when he shot you? Uh I don't know.
Uh, I was - You were scared.
- Yeah.
- Who wouldn't be? - Yeah.
You should take it easy on that stuff, Al.
It's gonna cloud your memory.
Now, what else? You know, I think I told you guys everything I know.
[WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY OVER P.
A.
.]
I know you're under a lot of pressure, but I think he's done, Walt.
[MACHINE BEEPS.]
[MAN OVER P.
A.

Blue team to I.
C.
U.
, please.
Blue team to I.
C.
U.
[WOMAN.]
Dr.
Flores, dial 182, please.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[DIAL TONE.]
[DIALING.]
[RINGING.]
[DARIUS.]
Leave a message at the beep.
[BEEP.]
Darius.
Hi.
It's Cady.
Again.
Um, I know that I've called a couple times, but I think you're gonna want to call me back.
I, um, uh You know that money that the Tribal Police confiscated when they arrested you? I convinced them to return it.
So just give me a call and let me know the best way to get it to you.
Okay, bye.
So all the banks that Cowboy Bill has hit are within a day's drive of Provo, Utah.
Okay.
So? So I don't know.
Maybe that's where Cowboy Bill lives.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
Hey, Sheriff.
You got a minute? - No.
- No.
I think you do.
It's about Henry.
Vic, can you excuse us? Or I could just stay.
I know you and Henry haven't been getting along, but I think he could use your help right about now.
Why's that? 'Cause he's missing.
Missing.
I have a case I cannot afford to drop.
Besides, I'm the last person who would know where he's gone.
I know, but your daughter could help.
- So ask her.
- I did.
She won't.
Because of her ethics, or something.
Lawyer stuff.
Mathias, what's going on? Cady has a client named Darius Burns.
She wouldn't work with a guy like that.
She would, and she is.
And against my advice, she sprung him from my jail.
So? So I think Darius is still working for Malachi.
You think Malachi is still alive? Yeah.
I do.
And he's got good reason to be pissed at Henry.
Because Henry blackmailed him into signing the Red Pony over? Among other things.
Henry and Nighthorse also banished Malachi from the rez.
And now you can't find Henry.
Worse.
Henry's in real trouble, Walt.
Can you get your daughter to tell you where to find Darius? - Vic.
- Hmm? I need you to take over the bank robbery.
What's going on? What's going on is that, uh, this bank robbery became the most important case in my career this afternoon.
Now I have to drop it to go take care of something else.
What happened to Henry? I don't know.
I need you to cover for me while I find out.
So, we have basically nothing on Cowboy Bill, but I've got to find him, or your career could be over? I know.
But if I don't find Henry, he might die.
So for the next couple of days, I need you to be me.
Don't do this.
What if I screw up? You won't.
I trust you, Vic.
[PANTING.]
[WIND HOWLING.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
[HECTOR.]
I got your note, Standing Bear.
You said you needed help? Hector? You weren't kidding.
You don't look so good.
I feel nauseous.
That's the dehydration.
When it gets really bad, you'll get muscle spasms.
Your heart will start to race, and your vision will get blurry.
And that's when you'll know you're screwed.
It gets worse? It can always get worse.
[SIGHS.]
I am sorry for what happened to you, Hector.
Why are you sorry? I got you involved in something complicated.
I got you killed.
Nah.
I chose a violent line of work, Standing Bear.
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
I never thought I would hear you quote Aeschylus.
Who's Aeschylus? I heard that in a Lil Wayne song.
[CHUCKLES, SIGHS.]
Am I going to die? Sure.
[RATTLESNAKE HISSING, RATTLING.]
[GUNSHOT.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
But not today.
Hector.
Where are you going? You needed help.
I helped.
Hector! Hector.
Hector! [SIGHS.]
[KEYPAD BEEPING.]
Yeah.
Hi.
This is, uh, Sheriff Longmire, Absaroka County.
I, uh, I need you to, uh, trace a phone number for me.
A cellphone.
Yeah.
I don't understand what the big deal is.
Just ask her already.
We've only been dating for a little while.
I feel like it'd be overstepping.
How is that overstepping? She has been taking care of the guard, doing her job.
You are just checking to see if he has told her anything about the shooting he hasn't told us.
You're not asking her to lie.
I'd be asking her to betray a confidence.
She could lose her job.
Well, if we don't find Cowboy Bill, Walt could lose his.
Do whatever you think is right, all right? I'd just hate to think that if the mayor gets Walt fired, there's something I could have done to prevent that.
[SIGHS.]
[CELLPHONE RINGS.]
Yeah.
Sheriff Longmire.
Uh-huh.
Hold on.
Go ahead.
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh, my [LAUGHS.]
Morning.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Thought you might want a pick-me-up.
- Aww, you're so sweet.
No, I just also wanted to say sorry if I've been a little, uh, distant.
You weren't distant last night.
Well, I might be tonight.
I've been under a lot of pressure with this whole Cowboy Bill thing.
Why are you under pressure? I mean, we all are.
Um, did Mr.
Chambers give you anything useful? No.
[CHUCKLES.]
And he's really our only lead.
That's a bummer.
- Yeah.
- [SIGHS.]
Hey.
If you hear anything Why would I hear anything? Well, I mean, you know, if you are in Mr.
Chambers' room and you hear him say anything or you make conversation Um, you know I can't do that.
And, honestly, it kind of creeps me out a little that you're even asking me to.
Creeps you out? No.
No, Meg.
I'm not asking you to do anything unethical.
You totally are.
That's exactly what you're doing.
Okay.
I didn't think it'd be such a big deal.
I mean, you did it before, when you gave me the name of Dr.
Monaghan's patient.
Somebody's life was at stake, okay? If I had known you were gonna hold it over my head, I might have thought twice before I did.
[SIGHS.]
[DOG BARKING.]
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
You alone? Thought I heard another car.
No.
It's just me.
All right.
Hand it over.
Well, Darius, actually, before we, uh I give you anything, we have to talk.
Why? Let me start by saying that I'm your lawyer, so anything that we talk about stays in complete confidence.
I can't tell anyone what you say to me.
It's something called attorney-client privilege.
Yeah.
I heard of that.
So I wanted to ask you about Henry Standing Bear.
I don't want to talk about nothing but my money.
To be honest, I don't even want to talk about that.
Just hand it over, and you can be on your way.
[STAMMERS.]
About that, I, um You don't have it.
You're just here to smoke me out.
No.
No, Darius, I I swear.
Give me my money, bitch! - [GUN COCKS.]
- [LONGMIRE.]
Don't take another step.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Dad? Step away from my daughter, Darius.
Dad, what are you doing here? It's all right, Cady.
I just need to ask Darius here a few questions.
I knew I shouldn't trust you.
All you white people say you're here to help, but really, you're just here spying for the man.
Darius, you have to believe me, I had no idea I'm not an idiot.
I know when Sheriff Longmire shows up five minutes after his daughter, that ain't no coincidence.
She didn't know I was here, Darius.
I traced her phone.
I also know that we're on the rez, and neither of you can do a damn thing to stop me from walking out the door.
Why don't you tell me where Henry is? I'm not sure I know a Henry.
I do know you're not gonna shoot me not with all the legal troubles you're having.
Be better for you if you tell me now, Darius.
'Cause I'm gonna find Henry.
Then you'll be in a world of trouble.
You're assuming I know where this Henry guy is, Sheriff.
And you're assuming he'll still be able to talk.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
You shouldn't be working with guys like that, Cady.
You shouldn't illegally be tracing my cellphone.
[CADY SOBBING.]
Cady? This is my fault, Dad! I did this to Henry! [SOBS.]
Take it easy.
It's gonna be okay.
No, it's not.
You heard Darius.
He did something to Henry.
I never should have let him out of jail! Darius is just trying to scare us, Cady.
[CADY SOBS.]
Henry can take care of himself.
No, he's in trouble.
I know he is.
He came to me in a dream.
You saw him in a dream? I don't know how to explain it, but I know he's in trouble.
[CRYING.]
I believe you, Cady.
But Darius isn't as smart as he thinks.
I got an idea where he's been, and where to look for Henry.
How? I saw a bag in his front seat from a burger place that's over by the Crow reservation.
Mathias told me that Malachi had been banished from the tribe, so he could be operating from there.
The Crow Reservation is huge, Dad.
How are you gonna find anybody there? I have a contact.
I'll start there.
Meanwhile, you need to go home.
And lock the door.
[SNIFFLES.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[WIND HOWLING.]
[PANTING.]
Mingan? Mingan, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I couldn't save you.
I-I can't I can't help anyone.
[SOBS.]
[PANTING.]
For strength.
[HEART BEATING.]
[ECHOING.]
Mingan! [DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE.]
[KEYS JINGLE.]
- Meg.
- I need to talk to you.
No.
Me first.
I want you to know that I was wrong.
I never should have asked you to spy for me.
And I won't do it again.
Al Chambers told me something.
Well, I-I don't want to hear it.
Well, you need to, because he lied to you.
- What? - Yeah, I went into his room to grab his lunch tray, and he started talking about how he felt guilty because he didn't tell the truth to you and Walt.
- About what? - About who shot him.
He's just going along with what everybody's saying - in the news and social media.
- Wait, are you saying that Cowboy Bill did not shoot Al Chambers? I'm saying that's what he's saying.
Well, then, who did shoot him? He doesn't know.
Hello? Hello, Marilyn.
You always seem to turn up the same time as Standing Bear.
Where is he? Before I answer that question, I need to know if you're the eagle or the osprey.
Marilyn, I can't afford to waste any time.
I think Henry's in trouble.
You think? Tell me where to find my friend.
The eagle and the osprey are not friends.
You see, the osprey's good at fishing, and Bald Eagle, not so much.
The eagle takes advantage of the osprey.
I'm not an eagle.
I don't know that.
All I know is, you and Standing Bear come flying in here around the same time.
Sometimes he comes first, sometimes you.
I can't tell who's catching the fish and who's taking advantage.
But I know you always bring trouble here.
Trouble brings us here.
Please.
Tell me where to find him.
What's in it for me? What do you want? Food.
Clothing.
Shelter.
A little walking-around money.

[PANTING.]
[RAIN POURING.]
It rained? Water.
[GRUNTING, PANTING.]
No.
No! No! [SCREAMING.]
No! [GRUNTING.]
We are running out of time! We have got to talk to him now! I said no! If we question Al Chambers again, he's gonna know Meg betrayed his confidence, and I promised I wouldn't put her in that position.
So we're supposed to proceed with the security guard's original version, even though we know that's a lie? No.
Look, originally, we all thought this was a one-man job because that's how everyone says Cowboy Bill works.
But now that we know we're looking for an accomplice, let's go back in the notes, look at all the security footage and and see if anybody fits the bill.
The shooter was outside! So two accomplices! Maybe more! I don't know.
[SIGHS.]
I'm just saying, maybe we can afford to look a little bit longer before I destroy my relationship.
[SIGHS.]
Fine.
You go take a look at the bank security cameras, and and I'll go through the crime blogger's video again.
But if we don't find anything by morning, I am going to talk to Al Chambers, even if it gets Meg in trouble.
I'm not letting Walt get fired.
You really shouldn't be around here with all that cash on you.
This place is dangerous.
Just look what happened to Standing Bear.
You still haven't told me what happened to him.
It'll be evident when we get there.
Where is there? Near where the river used to flow, past the rock that looks like a dog.
Got it.
Thanks.
[SIGHS.]
The good thing about crappy land nobody tries to take it from you.
The bad thing is, people discover it's a good place to hide and to do bad things.
Marilyn, is Henry all right? You tell me.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
What the hell happened here? Where's Henry? Last time I saw him, he was right there, tied to those stakes.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
You untie him? No.
Looks like he didn't need my help.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
He got help from the spirits.
It's clear your friend is a warrior, Sheriff.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Unfortunately, we're eight miles from civilization, and tough as he is, he didn't look like he was up for a hike.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[BROOKS.]
Somebody just yelled "robbery.
" I'm following the security guard.
"I'm following the security guard.
" [AL.]
Stop! [GUNSHOT.]
- Holy shit! - "Holy shit!" Holy shit.
Ferg! Find something? Yeah.
Look at this guy across the street right after the shooting.
The guy in front of the store.
He's staring at the camera, right? Okay, and then He's walking away.
Why is he not gawking, running toward the victim? [SIGHS.]
Rained about 20 minutes last night.
Must have been enough to loosen the earth around the stakes.
- [GRUNTS.]
- Whatcha doin'? What you hoping to find in there? Evidence.
Huh.
What? The last I checked, local sheriffs aren't supposed to be collecting evidence on the rez.
Won't hold up in court.
[BIRDS CAWING.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Never hurts to know what's going on.
What you looking at there, Sheriff? Ravens.
[BIRDS CAWING.]
Henry! [WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
Henry.
Henry, wake up! I'm here.
Wake up, Henry! Come on! Marilyn! He's over here! Bring the water! Marilyn! Marilyn! Wake up, Henry.
All right.
[GRUNTS.]
Walt? Henry.
You're gonna be okay.
I'm gonna get you out of here, okay? I'm gonna take your shade.
[GRUNTING.]
Walt.
Hector lives.
Forget about that, Henry.
I-I need water.
Uh, I am not even sweating anymore.
Yeah, Marilyn had our water.
But don't you worry.
We're gonna get you back to my truck.
[GRUNTS.]
I'm gonna carry you.
You cannot carry me.
No.
I can't carry you.
But I can drag you.
Okay.

Or if you like a more natural presentation, I just got some hoppers in.
Buddy, you might as well be speaking Klingon to me.
[CHUCKLES.]
You shopping for someone else? No.
Came in to, uh, ask you a few questions about the bank robbery.
Oh.
Yeah, that was quite a quite a thing.
Uh, Cowboy Bill, right here in Absaroka.
You see anything? Uh, just the ambulance lights.
That's all? Yeah.
From inside the store? That's right.
Hmm.
See, the funny thing about that This picture was taken right after the security guard was shot.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
See, and that's that's you.
And you're staring right at the action.
So I'm gonna need you to try and answer my questions again, no matter how difficult that might be.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANING.]
Are we there yet? [GROANS.]
I heard yelling, so I grabbed my gun, and I went outside.
That was your first instinct? To grab your gun? Yes, ma'am.
We may not all wear a uniform, but that don't mean we don't care about our fellow citizens.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Okay, so, um, you went outside.
And I don't know.
Someone was shouting something about a robbery, and then I saw a man running and and another guy chasing him.
So I fired at the first guy.
I figured he must be the robber and the guy with the gun was a cop or a security guard.
- But it wasn't.
- No, ma'am.
After I shot the man I thought was the robber, I saw him hit the ground, and that's when I recognized the bank uniform.
I was so confused.
I mean, who was chasing him? A blogger.
Why would a blogger have a gun? He didn't.
It was a cellphone.
He was filming the entire thing.
That's how I got this picture of you.
[SIGHS.]
I'm so sorry.
I I know I should have spoken up sooner.
I just I guess I'm not as brave as I think I am.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Walt.
You should really get a cellphone.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
You think I'd get a signal out here? Huh? Marilyn said there was rain last night.
If we can find some shade, maybe we can find some rain that hasn't evaporated yet.
- Aah! Shit! - [RATTLESNAKE HISSING.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
What happened? Snake bite.
It's a rattler.
I need to get you to a hospital.
[RATTLESNAKE HISSING, RATTLING.]
Deputy Moretti.
So sorry to keep you waiting.
No, you're not.
So, how can I help you? Are you a man of your word? Well, of course I am.
Then get off Walt's back.
Oh, any trouble Walt's in, he's gotten there himself.
That's bullshit, and you know it.
But, regardless, you told Walt to find out who shot Al Chambers, and he did.
Really? I don't remember hearing any reports about Cowboy Bill being arrested.
Because Cowboy Bill didn't shoot Chambers.
A fly shop owner named Ed Nardo did it.
He was trying to be a hero, and he made a mistake.
And just so you know, my original idea how to handle this was to come in here and punch you in the face.
But Walt asked me to be like him.
So I decided to take the honorable high road instead.
That's one more thing you should thank him for.
Moretti.
Your boss is going to lose the trial, and he's gonna lose his job, and you're gonna be on your own.
You sure you want to talk to me like this? Absolutely.
[DOOR CLOSES.]

What are you doing? Making contingency plans.
- By burying guns and money? - Yep.
So I guess you're getting ready for the zombie apocalypse.
Nope.
Tucker Baggett.
He's coming after my home.
What does that mean? That whole wrongful death suit, it's him just trying to ruin me so I have to sell my land.
He wants to build a golf course here.
Well, I'm not letting that happen.
So you're gonna hide in the woods and shoot at him? I don't know what I'm gonna do.
I can't just sit here and take it.
I got to do something.
It's my home.
It's all I have.
It's not all you have.
You have your daughter.
You've got Henry.
And you have me.
You have your job.
Which you're not doing very well right now.
I came to get you.
There was a bank robbery in Powder River Junction.
We should have been there 15 minutes ago.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Right.
So help me fill this in.
[SCOFFS.]
[CHANTING IN NATIVE LANGUAGE.]
[DOG BARKING.]
[MANDY.]
Good morning.
What Why Why am I [MANDY.]
Sleeping outside? You were a train wreck last night.
What do you mean? Well, you passed out in the sweat, which is pretty normal for a newb, and I would have taken you home, but I don't know where you live.
And then when I tried to bring you inside, you woke up and started hitting me.
And then you just started talking crazy, so I dropped your pain in the ass here.
Come on.
You need coffee.
Hey, Mandy.
Is it normal to see things during a sweat? Like hallucinations? Don't you mean visions? What did you see? Like an animal, or something? [EERIE NOTES PLAY.]
Uh, I don't know.
I saw an owl.
That must be your spirit animal.
Wow, dude.
That is not normal for a newb.
Usually, I mean, the only thing I've really seen are, like, weird colors and stuff.
Thank you for bringing me back here.
I'm really sorry for hitting you.
Yeah.
That was nuts.
So, what did you see? Uh, did I have horns or fangs or something? You were just you.
But you were you were cleaning blood.
[EERIE NOTES PLAY.]
My friend Henry was hanging.
Hanging what? No, hanging.
Like from a noose.
He wasn't dead, but That is dark.
You You need to talk to someone that can interpret that shit.
I don't know much, but I know that shit's not good.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[FERG.]
What took you guys so long? Where's the victim, Ferg? He's on his way to the hospital.
- In what condition? - I don't know.
The paramedics were gone by the time I got here.
But the shooting happened over there.
Ferg, finish taking the statements from our witnesses.
Don't let anybody take any photographs.
He had, like, shark eyes, you know? Like, they were dead and emotionless.
It was chilling, but we get trained for situations like this, so I kept my shit together.
Pardon my French.
[CHUCKLES.]
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Sheriff's department.
I understand you had a robbery.
It was Cowboy Bill.
From the news.
- Who got shot? - No.
Al Chambers got shot, our security guard.
The paramedics took him to the hospital already.
Their response time was impressive.
We're here now, and we got some questions we need to ask, off-camera.
[SCOFFS.]
You sure this is where it's supposed to be? That's what Jim said when he called it in.
And Jim couldn't wait for us? Well, he was late for work, but he said it was here.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
Let me see if the registration is still in the truck.
No need.
I know that truck.
Well, who does it belong to? Henry Standing Bear.
Go call it in.
All right.
Henry! Henry! It was just like they've been saying on the news.
Pretend I haven't seen the news, and why don't you tell me what it was like? So, we had just opened.
Cowboy Bill was, like, the second or third customer of the day.
I could tell something wasn't quite right, then he pushed over the note.
Do you have the note? Um, I guess I probably left it up at the counter, but I remember what it said.
It said, "Don't look at me.
Don't say a word.
Don't hit the panic button.
This is a robbery.
Put all of the 50s and 100s from your cash drawer into this bag.
- No 20s.
" - That's a good memory.
I don't think I'll ever forget it.
He was calm and polite, but I could tell he was capable of violence.
So you looked at him.
No, not really.
Just a couple glances, but I couldn't exactly describe him.
So how could you tell he was capable of violence? Did you see a gun? Yeah.
Definitely.
Okay.
Anything else you remember? He was wearing gloves.
So he wouldn't have left any prints.
So, what'd he touch? Um, nothing, I guess.
Except for that note.
Right.
If I go on eBay later and see you trying to sell the Cowboy Bill robbery note, well, you're gonna be in a lot of trouble, Paula.
Oh! [CHUCKLES.]
Here it is! I guess I put it in my pocket without realizing.
Uh-huh.
- Could I make a photocopy of this? - No.
That's evidence in the possible murder of your co-worker.
Right.
Sorry.
Look, if there's anything else I can help you with There is.
I want to see the bank security videos and, uh, I need to close my account.
[MAN.]
Somebody just yelled "robbery.
" I'm following the security guard.
[AL.]
Stop! [GUNSHOT.]
[MAN.]
Holy shit! Sir! Sir! Do you have a phone? Then call 911! You're holding a phone.
Why didn't you call 911? I didn't want to miss any details.
So you have details on the shooter? You mean Cowboy Bill? No.
I'm not one of those heartless journalists who would walk away from the man bleeding on the ground.
I stayed to help.
You're a journalist.
Well, a blogger.
And, uh, a podcaster.
And a true-crime novelist.
Would I be familiar with any of your work? Well, I haven't been published yet, but, uh, the blog has been live for a few months now, and I've already got over 200 clicks.
A day? Total.
So far.
But after you post your videos from today, I imagine that'll go up.
I hope so.
Mm.
Henry! [WIND GUSTING.]
[TELEPHONE RINGING.]
[EERIE MUSIC PLAYS.]
Took out all your money? Yep.
Looks like a lot of cash.
Not really.
All she had left were 20s.
So, nobody saw the shooting.
The street was basically empty when the shots were fired, and I just got off the phone with the hospital.
Al Chambers, the security guard, went into surgery 20 minutes ago.
Hey, Walt! How you doing, Sheriff? Sawyer.
What can I do for you? I just wanted to stop by and tell you guys about a Facebook message I got this morning from one of my college buddies back east.
He says, "You made the news this morning, bro! A real-life outlaw in your county.
Hope you're not tied to any train tracks or anything.
" Then he attached a link to a blog.
"This armed attack represents an escalation in Cowboy Bill's string of bank robberies.
It's the first time he's resorted to violence.
But by the time the Absaroka County Sheriff and his deputies ambled in, the critically injured security guard was long gone.
And so was Cowboy Bill.
" Did you say a security guard was critically injured? Is it Al? Is it my husband? Did somebody from the bank call you? I saw online that Cowboy Bill shot someone.
Please tell me! Was it my Al? [SOBBING.]
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God.
Oh, my God! No! [COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS.]
Hey.
Have you seen Henry? No.
He's not in the kitchen.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, guys.
I don't know.
Henry hasn't been around for, like, a couple days.
Why are you looking for Henry? Uh, we found his truck on the rez, totaled.
And no sign of Henry.
When did you find his truck? Early this morning.
If you find him, will you call me? Why are you looking for Henry? I don't know.
I had a I had a dream.
Like a vision.
I was doing a sweat ceremony, and I just had this feeling like he's in trouble, so What did you see exactly? I saw him hanging from a tree.
Do you know what that means? It means you shouldn't have helped Darius get released from jail.
What does that have to do with anything? Darius works for Malachi, and Malachi wants to hurt Henry.
I thought Malachi was missing.
He is.
Cady, I need you to help me find Darius.
I can't do that.
Sure you can.
He's a client.
You must have an address or a phone number - where you can reach him.
- You arrested him.
Don't you have that? He wasn't at home.
And the number he gave us is fake.
I need you to give me the real one, Cady.
I can't.
You're Henry's friend.
And I'm Darius' lawyer.
Well, call me if you change your mind about which one of those is more important to you, hmm? [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANING.]
[COUGHS.]
[MUTTERING.]
Yo.
Shut the hell up, bro.
I can't even understand you.
W-Water.
Please.
Mm.
Water? [GROANS.]
He dead yet? Nah.
Talking in his sleep all night, though.
Crazy shit.
Like he's hallucinating.
[DARIUS.]
That right, Henry? You losing your mind? Ever eaten one of these burgers before? From that little place on the highway just outside the Crow Rez? Want a bite? [LAUGHS.]
No? You probably shouldn't.
Too salty.
You need water.
Oh, your body temperature is way up there.
You ain't even sweating much anymore.
That's some serious dehydration.
Well.
Don't worry.
Won't be too much longer.
Give me a call tomorrow afternoon if he's still hanging on.
So, what I'm wondering is why I heard this from a friend in Boston before I heard it from you.
I've never been in the habit of telling you about every crime that takes place around here.
Yeah.
Well, this is national news.
And I feel like an idiot not knowing what's going on.
But you do know what's going on.
You were right there at the crime scene, putting your foot in your mouth in front of the victim's wife.
Don't you try and turn this on me, Walt.
Don't you mess with me.
I told you I was gonna slow-walk your suspension, see how your trial went, but if you succeed in making this county a punch line in the national news, I'm not waiting for any verdict.
We can't help what the news writes about us.
Sure you can.
You can quit "ambling" and do your job.
Now find the man who shot one of my citizens, and by the end of the week.
Or I will not just speed up your suspension, I will make it a permanent removal from office.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
[COUGHS.]
[GROANING.]
I I want Water.
What's that? [GROANS.]
Thirsty? Want some water? [GUNSHOT.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
Okay, thanks.
Al Chambers is out of surgery.
Seriously? Let's get over there.
He's the only one who saw the shooter, so the sooner we talk to him Doctor said it might be better if we gave him a day or two before we bother him.
In that case, let's comb through the police reports of Cowboy Bill's, uh, robberies.
All of them.
The most recent one was in Utah.
Seems pretty much identical to all the others.
Hits small-town banks after they open, hands the teller a note, and asks for 50s and 100s, no 20s.
Yeah, what's that about? It says online that banks put those exploding dye packs in stacks of 20s.
I don't know if it's true, but it seems like he's done some research.
He's never hurt anybody.
Never even shown a gun.
Until today.
But he didn't show a gun to the teller.
He didn't? She said he had a gun.
Look at the tape.
Here.
Cowboy Bill has his hands on the counter the whole time.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
That's not what Paula Walsh said.
So you think she's lying or being dramatic? All I know is that shooting a guard is out of character for the Cowboy Bill I've been reading about.
So So what's changed? Why has he suddenly turned violent? Maybe he's desperate, needs the money worse than ever.
This guy doesn't seem desperate.
He's, um He's careful, he's calm, he's polite.
He takes the time to doff his hat before he leaves with the money.
Maybe he's not our Cowboy Bill.
You think he's a copycat? Cowboy Bill never made off with that much cash in any of these robberies, and copycats for them, it's about the attention and the drama.
And Cowboy Bill has been on every single news station west of the Mississippi at this point.
Actually, east of the Mississippi, too.
That's how the mayor heard about it.
Vic, call the FBI.
See if they, um See if they have information that's not in the local police reports.
Me? They hate me.
Well, they kind of hate all of us, so Ferg, call the hospital.
Um, tell them I need to speak to Al Chambers today.
They said it'd be better I know what they said.
I can't wait 24 hours.
[PANTING.]
[SIGHS.]
Thank you.
Yeah.
Sorry about that.
I thought he'd fall backwards.
Seen too many movies, I guess.
[SIGHS.]
You keep getting yourself into complicated situations, don't you? Do you have water? [TAB POPS.]
Ah.
I think you misunderstand me, Standing Bear.
I knew these men.
They're bad men.
Cowards.
The kind of assholes who'd sit in the desert and watch a man die.
Will you untie me? [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
But I don't know you.
Oh, I know you're Cheyenne, and from time to time, you show up here on Crow land.
But you're always being chased by bad people.
I got a sense you're not bad.
So I thought I'd help you out.
But then I thought, "If I set him free, it might just bring more trouble.
" So [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANS.]
I decided to leave it up to the spirits.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
Marilyn.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Please.
I need water.
If you have the pure heart of a righteous warrior, the spirits will help you get free.
Help me! Good luck, Standing Bear! I'm rooting for you.
No.
No! Come back! [GASPING.]
Come back! Come back! I should have seen it.
It's my job.
I'm supposed to stop the bad guys from taking the money.
Well, you did everything right, Al.
But I didn't.
What do you think you did wrong? I shouted out that there was a robbery.
You're not supposed to do that.
It's in all the training.
All the training in the world can't prepare you for when the real thing happens.
That's right.
The most important thing is to remember as much as you can.
- I guess.
- So, what do you remember, Al? [SIGHS.]
Just There was this asshole complaining about his ATM card, and suddenly, I look over, and Paula's waving her hands at me and pointing at this cowboy guy walking out the door, and I followed him.
You said you yelled "robbery.
" How do you know that's what happened? Well, as I was following him, I remembered all these stories about Cowboy Bill.
Me and Paula, we've been joking around for weeks about him coming in.
Anytime anyone came in with a cowboy hat, we were all like, "Oh, no, it's Cowboy Bill.
" Yeah.
So I just realized it all a little too late.
Did you get a look at his face? No.
Not really.
I just saw his back.
Come on.
Think.
What about when he shot you? Uh I don't know.
Uh, I was - You were scared.
- Yeah.
- Who wouldn't be? - Yeah.
You should take it easy on that stuff, Al.
It's gonna cloud your memory.
Now, what else? You know, I think I told you guys everything I know.

So just give me a call and let me know the best way to get it to you.
Okay, bye.
So all the banks that Cowboy Bill has hit are within a day's drive of Provo, Utah.
Okay.
So? So I don't know.
Maybe that's where Cowboy Bill lives.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
Hey, Sheriff.
You got a minute? - No.
- No.
I think you do.
It's about Henry.
Vic, can you excuse us? Or I could just stay.
I know you and Henry haven't been getting along, but I think he could use your help right about now.
Why's that? 'Cause he's missing.
Missing.
I have a case I cannot afford to drop.
Besides, I'm the last person who would know where he's gone.
I know, but your daughter could help.
- So ask her.
- I did.
She won't.
Because of her ethics, or something.
Lawyer stuff.
Mathias, what's going on? Cady has a client named Darius Burns.
She wouldn't work with a guy like that.
She would, and she is.
And against my advice, she sprung him from my jail.
So? So I think Darius is still working for Malachi.
You think Malachi is still alive? Yeah.
I do.
And he's got good reason to be pissed at Henry.
Because Henry blackmailed him into signing the Red Pony over? Among other things.
Henry and Nighthorse also banished Malachi from the rez.
And now you can't find Henry.
Worse.
Henry's in real trouble, Walt.
Can you get your daughter to tell you where to find Darius? - Vic.
- Hmm? I need you to take over the bank robbery.
What's going on? What's going on is that, uh, this bank robbery became the most important case in my career this afternoon.
Now I have to drop it to go take care of something else.
What happened to Henry? I don't know.
I need you to cover for me while I find out.
So, we have basically nothing on Cowboy Bill, but I've got to find him, or your career could be over? I know.
But if I don't find Henry, he might die.
So for the next couple of days, I need you to be me.
Don't do this.
What if I screw up? You won't.
I trust you, Vic.
[PANTING.]
[WIND HOWLING.]

[HECTOR.]
I got your note, Standing Bear.
You said you needed help? Hector? You weren't kidding.
You don't look so good.
I feel nauseous.
That's the dehydration.
When it gets really bad, you'll get muscle spasms.
Your heart will start to race, and your vision will get blurry.
And that's when you'll know you're screwed.
It gets worse? It can always get worse.
[SIGHS.]
I am sorry for what happened to you, Hector.
Why are you sorry? I got you involved in something complicated.
I got you killed.
Nah.
I chose a violent line of work, Standing Bear.
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
I never thought I would hear you quote Aeschylus.
Who's Aeschylus? I heard that in a Lil Wayne song.
[CHUCKLES, SIGHS.]
Am I going to die? Sure.
[RATTLESNAKE HISSING, RATTLING.]
[GUNSHOT.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
But not today.
Hector.
Where are you going? You needed help.
I helped.
Hector! Hector.
Hector! [SIGHS.]
[KEYPAD BEEPING.]
Yeah.
Hi.
This is, uh, Sheriff Longmire, Absaroka County.
I, uh, I need you to, uh, trace a phone number for me.
A cellphone.
Yeah.
I don't understand what the big deal is.
Just ask her already.
We've only been dating for a little while.
I feel like it'd be overstepping.
How is that overstepping? She has been taking care of the guard, doing her job.
You are just checking to see if he has told her anything about the shooting he hasn't told us.
You're not asking her to lie.
I'd be asking her to betray a confidence.
She could lose her job.
Well, if we don't find Cowboy Bill, Walt could lose his.
Do whatever you think is right, all right? I'd just hate to think that if the mayor gets Walt fired, there's something I could have done to prevent that.
[SIGHS.]
[CELLPHONE RINGS.]
Yeah.
Sheriff Longmire.
Uh-huh.
Hold on.
Go ahead.
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh, my [LAUGHS.]
Morning.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Thought you might want a pick-me-up.
- Aww, you're so sweet.
No, I just also wanted to say sorry if I've been a little, uh, distant.
You weren't distant last night.
Well, I might be tonight.
I've been under a lot of pressure with this whole Cowboy Bill thing.
Why are you under pressure? I mean, we all are.
Um, did Mr.
Chambers give you anything useful? No.
[CHUCKLES.]
And he's really our only lead.
That's a bummer.
- Yeah.
- [SIGHS.]
Hey.
If you hear anything Why would I hear anything? Well, I mean, you know, if you are in Mr.
Chambers' room and you hear him say anything or you make conversation Um, you know I can't do that.
And, honestly, it kind of creeps me out a little that you're even asking me to.
Creeps you out? No.
No, Meg.
I'm not asking you to do anything unethical.
You totally are.
That's exactly what you're doing.
Okay.
I didn't think it'd be such a big deal.
I mean, you did it before, when you gave me the name of Dr.
Monaghan's patient.
Somebody's life was at stake, okay? If I had known you were gonna hold it over my head, I might have thought twice before I did.
[SIGHS.]
[DOG BARKING.]
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
You alone? Thought I heard another car.
No.
It's just me.
All right.
Hand it over.
Well, Darius, actually, before we, uh I give you anything, we have to talk.
Why? Let me start by saying that I'm your lawyer, so anything that we talk about stays in complete confidence.
I can't tell anyone what you say to me.
It's something called attorney-client privilege.
Yeah.
I heard of that.
So I wanted to ask you about Henry Standing Bear.
I don't want to talk about nothing but my money.
To be honest, I don't even want to talk about that.
Just hand it over, and you can be on your way.
[STAMMERS.]
About that, I, um You don't have it.
You're just here to smoke me out.
No.
No, Darius, I I swear.
Give me my money, bitch! - [GUN COCKS.]
- [LONGMIRE.]
Don't take another step.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Dad? Step away from my daughter, Darius.
Dad, what are you doing here? It's all right, Cady.
I just need to ask Darius here a few questions.
I knew I shouldn't trust you.
All you white people say you're here to help, but really, you're just here spying for the man.
Darius, you have to believe me, I had no idea I'm not an idiot.
I know when Sheriff Longmire shows up five minutes after his daughter, that ain't no coincidence.
She didn't know I was here, Darius.
I traced her phone.
I also know that we're on the rez, and neither of you can do a damn thing to stop me from walking out the door.
Why don't you tell me where Henry is? I'm not sure I know a Henry.
I do know you're not gonna shoot me not with all the legal troubles you're having.
Be better for you if you tell me now, Darius.
'Cause I'm gonna find Henry.
Then you'll be in a world of trouble.
You're assuming I know where this Henry guy is, Sheriff.
And you're assuming he'll still be able to talk.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
You shouldn't be working with guys like that, Cady.
You shouldn't illegally be tracing my cellphone.
[CADY SOBBING.]
Cady? This is my fault, Dad! I did this to Henry! [SOBS.]
Take it easy.
It's gonna be okay.
No, it's not.
You heard Darius.
He did something to Henry.
I never should have let him out of jail! Darius is just trying to scare us, Cady.
[CADY SOBS.]
Henry can take care of himself.
No, he's in trouble.
I know he is.
He came to me in a dream.
You saw him in a dream? I don't know how to explain it, but I know he's in trouble.
[CRYING.]
I believe you, Cady.
But Darius isn't as smart as he thinks.
I got an idea where he's been, and where to look for Henry.
How? I saw a bag in his front seat from a burger place that's over by the Crow reservation.
Mathias told me that Malachi had been banished from the tribe, so he could be operating from there.
The Crow Reservation is huge, Dad.
How are you gonna find anybody there? I have a contact.
I'll start there.
Meanwhile, you need to go home.
And lock the door.
[SNIFFLES.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[WIND HOWLING.]
[PANTING.]
Mingan? Mingan, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I couldn't save you.
I-I can't I can't help anyone.
[SOBS.]
[PANTING.]
For strength.
[HEART BEATING.]
[ECHOING.]
Mingan! [DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE.]
[KEYS JINGLE.]
- Meg.
- I need to talk to you.
No.
Me first.
I want you to know that I was wrong.
I never should have asked you to spy for me.
And I won't do it again.
Al Chambers told me something.
Well, I-I don't want to hear it.
Well, you need to, because he lied to you.
- What? - Yeah, I went into his room to grab his lunch tray, and he started talking about how he felt guilty because he didn't tell the truth to you and Walt.
- About what? - About who shot him.
He's just going along with what everybody's saying - in the news and social media.
- Wait, are you saying that Cowboy Bill did not shoot Al Chambers? I'm saying that's what he's saying.
Well, then, who did shoot him? He doesn't know.
Hello? Hello, Marilyn.
You always seem to turn up the same time as Standing Bear.
Where is he? Before I answer that question, I need to know if you're the eagle or the osprey.
Marilyn, I can't afford to waste any time.
I think Henry's in trouble.
You think? Tell me where to find my friend.
The eagle and the osprey are not friends.
You see, the osprey's good at fishing, and Bald Eagle, not so much.
The eagle takes advantage of the osprey.
I'm not an eagle.
I don't know that.
All I know is, you and Standing Bear come flying in here around the same time.
Sometimes he comes first, sometimes you.
I can't tell who's catching the fish and who's taking advantage.
But I know you always bring trouble here.
Trouble brings us here.
Please.
Tell me where to find him.
What's in it for me? What do you want? Food.
Clothing.
Shelter.
A little walking-around money.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[PANTING.]
[RAIN POURING.]
It rained? Water.
[GRUNTING, PANTING.]
No.
No! No! [SCREAMING.]
No! [GRUNTING.]
We are running out of time! We have got to talk to him now! I said no! If we question Al Chambers again, he's gonna know Meg betrayed his confidence, and I promised I wouldn't put her in that position.
So we're supposed to proceed with the security guard's original version, even though we know that's a lie? No.
Look, originally, we all thought this was a one-man job because that's how everyone says Cowboy Bill works.
But now that we know we're looking for an accomplice, let's go back in the notes, look at all the security footage and and see if anybody fits the bill.
The shooter was outside! So two accomplices! Maybe more! I don't know.
[SIGHS.]
I'm just saying, maybe we can afford to look a little bit longer before I destroy my relationship.
[SIGHS.]
Fine.
You go take a look at the bank security cameras, and and I'll go through the crime blogger's video again.
But if we don't find anything by morning, I am going to talk to Al Chambers, even if it gets Meg in trouble.
I'm not letting Walt get fired.
You really shouldn't be around here with all that cash on you.
This place is dangerous.
Just look what happened to Standing Bear.
You still haven't told me what happened to him.
It'll be evident when we get there.
Where is there? Near where the river used to flow, past the rock that looks like a dog.
Got it.
Thanks.
[SIGHS.]
The good thing about crappy land nobody tries to take it from you.
The bad thing is, people discover it's a good place to hide and to do bad things.
Marilyn, is Henry all right? You tell me.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
What the hell happened here? Where's Henry? Last time I saw him, he was right there, tied to those stakes.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
You untie him? No.
Looks like he didn't need my help.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
He got help from the spirits.
It's clear your friend is a warrior, Sheriff.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Unfortunately, we're eight miles from civilization, and tough as he is, he didn't look like he was up for a hike.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[BROOKS.]
Somebody just yelled "robbery.
" I'm following the security guard.
"I'm following the security guard.
" [AL.]
Stop! [GUNSHOT.]
- Holy shit! - "Holy shit!" Holy shit.
Ferg! Find something? Yeah.
Look at this guy across the street right after the shooting.
The guy in front of the store.
He's staring at the camera, right? Okay, and then He's walking away.
Why is he not gawking, running toward the victim? [SIGHS.]
Rained about 20 minutes last night.
Must have been enough to loosen the earth around the stakes.
- [GRUNTS.]
- Whatcha doin'? What you hoping to find in there? Evidence.
Huh.
What? The last I checked, local sheriffs aren't supposed to be collecting evidence on the rez.
Won't hold up in court.
[BIRDS CAWING.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
Never hurts to know what's going on.
What you looking at there, Sheriff? Ravens.
[BIRDS CAWING.]
Henry! [WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
Henry.
Henry, wake up! I'm here.
Wake up, Henry! Come on! Marilyn! He's over here! Bring the water! Marilyn! Marilyn! Wake up, Henry.
All right.
[GRUNTS.]
Walt? Henry.
You're gonna be okay.
I'm gonna get you out of here, okay? I'm gonna take your shade.
[GRUNTING.]
Walt.
Hector lives.
Forget about that, Henry.
I-I need water.
Uh, I am not even sweating anymore.
Yeah, Marilyn had our water.
But don't you worry.
We're gonna get you back to my truck.
[GRUNTS.]
I'm gonna carry you.
You cannot carry me.
No.
I can't carry you.
But I can drag you.
Okay.
- [DOOR CHIMES.]
- Hello? [ED.]
Fish have been hitting them big foam uglies like crazy the last couple days.
Or if you like a more natural presentation, I just got some hoppers in.
Buddy, you might as well be speaking Klingon to me.
[CHUCKLES.]
You shopping for someone else? No.
Came in to, uh, ask you a few questions about the bank robbery.
Oh.
Yeah, that was quite a quite a thing.
Uh, Cowboy Bill, right here in Absaroka.
You see anything? Uh, just the ambulance lights.
That's all? Yeah.
From inside the store? That's right.
Hmm.
See, the funny thing about that This picture was taken right after the security guard was shot.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
See, and that's that's you.
And you're staring right at the action.
So I'm gonna need you to try and answer my questions again, no matter how difficult that might be.
[WESTERN MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GROANING.]
Are we there yet? [GROANS.]
I heard yelling, so I grabbed my gun, and I went outside.
That was your first instinct? To grab your gun? Yes, ma'am.
We may not all wear a uniform, but that don't mean we don't care about our fellow citizens.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
Okay, so, um, you went outside.
And I don't know.
Someone was shouting something about a robbery, and then I saw a man running and and another guy chasing him.
So I fired at the first guy.
I figured he must be the robber and the guy with the gun was a cop or a security guard.
- But it wasn't.
- No, ma'am.
After I shot the man I thought was the robber, I saw him hit the ground, and that's when I recognized the bank uniform.
I was so confused.
I mean, who was chasing him? A blogger.
Why would a blogger have a gun? He didn't.
It was a cellphone.
He was filming the entire thing.
That's how I got this picture of you.
[SIGHS.]
I'm so sorry.
I I know I should have spoken up sooner.
I just I guess I'm not as brave as I think I am.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[GRUNTS.]
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
Walt.
You should really get a cellphone.
[BREATHING HEAVILY.]
You think I'd get a signal out here? Huh? Marilyn said there was rain last night.
If we can find some shade, maybe we can find some rain that hasn't evaporated yet.
- Aah! Shit! - [RATTLESNAKE HISSING.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS.]
What happened? Snake bite.
It's a rattler.
I need to get you to a hospital.
[RATTLESNAKE HISSING, RATTLING.]
Deputy Moretti.
So sorry to keep you waiting.
No, you're not.
So, how can I help you? Are you a man of your word? Well, of course I am.
Then get off Walt's back.
Oh, any trouble Walt's in, he's gotten there himself.
That's bullshit, and you know it.
But, regardless, you told Walt to find out who shot Al Chambers, and he did.
Really? I don't remember hearing any reports about Cowboy Bill being arrested.
Because Cowboy Bill didn't shoot Chambers.
A fly shop owner named Ed Nardo did it.
He was trying to be a hero, and he made a mistake.
And just so you know, my original idea how to handle this was to come in here and punch you in the face.
But Walt asked me to be like him.
So I decided to take the honorable high road instead.
That's one more thing you should thank him for.
Moretti.
Your boss is going to lose the trial, and he's gonna lose his job, and you're gonna be on your own.
You sure you want to talk to me like this? Absolutely.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
Carry me home when the light in my eyes does fade Carry me home when the shadow comes to take me away Lay down my bones Knowing I'll be in a better place Release my soul, carry me home [GROANS.]
