Marshals (2026) s01e13 Episode Script
Wolves at the Door
1
Previously on Marshals
Got eyes on a possible triggerman.
[Kayce] Whoever attempted
the assassination
swept their tracks.
Threat's still out there.
The mine will provide valuable jobs
Broken Rock desperately needs.
The casino wants the $20,000 you owe.
[Calvin] Pain in my shoulder
is a symptom of cancer.
A spot's opened up in the D.C. office.
You're suspended from duty
until further notice.
I would love to make East Camp
part of my operation.
[Weaver] You'll never be free till
you shed everything
that's weighing you down.
And what would a deal look like?

Here to suspend me from my job, too?
Hey, look, part of my job is
protecting Miles from himself.
And the man can't get out
of his own way.
Maybe you made the right choice.
How how's he holding up?
Between Sabrina
and the mine fight,
he's channeling his anger
into Broken Rock.
How every time ♪
We come up for air ♪
[Belle] Uh, uh. Told you,
we're trading beers and burgers
for fruits and veggies.
The only thing crueler
than cancer is a cancer diet.
I got you an appointment
in Salt Lake City
with the best oncologist in the region.
Now, I made a list of questions
you're gonna need to ask.
What's wrong?
The poking and prodding
and lying in machines, you know,
it just just gets a little lonely.
One is none.
Tell Maddie.
Having someone with you might
make the time go a little faster.
Not gonna guilt her
into a relationship.
Well, hell, I'd go with you,
but two of us on a road trip
doesn't exactly
respect work boundaries.
[scoffs] Yeah, right.
I appreciate you swim-buddying me.
I just, I can't carry it alone.
I feel like I need the riot gear
any time you're near that jukebox.
[chuckles]
Yeah, only Andrea could start
a bar fight at noon.
["Running Down a Song"
by Channing Wilson playing]
- Does this work for you?
- Okay.
I think our girl's gone native.
I'm glad you're embracing Montana
'cause I need you all in at work.
Now with Miles down,
everybody's got to step it up.
[sniffles]
You can count on me.
[door opens]
[Mo] How's the speech for
the senators coming along?
Striking the perfect balance
between groveling and genuflecting.
Perhaps Council Member Irons
was right about me.
Kowtowing to our overlords.
Your pen will prove just as powerful
as our ancestors' lances and arrows
in driving the rare earth mine
off our river.
Well, I may beat them
with their own rules,
but nobody's gonna mistake me
for Dragging Canoe.
[knocking]
What brings you here, Miles?
Thought we'd go over what you want
me to say to the Senate Committee.
I see. No longer an asset to the cause.
[Thomas] A heroic U.S. Marshal
from the reservation demands respect.
A suspended marshal demands scrutiny.
I know you'll make us proud, sir.
Slow, suspenseful music ♪
Hey. We leave tomorrow.
Why don't you ride with us
to the airport?
Maybe the chairman will have
a change of heart.
[Tate] I can't feel my fingers.
[Kayce] It's God's way
of telling you to work harder.
Or God's way of telling me this
is what ranch hands are for.
[Kayce laughs]
[grunts softly, sniffles]
- Hey.
- Hey.
[Weaver] I brought you a gift, Tate.
Reeled in many a trophy catch with it.
A bamboo rod?
Thank you.
What we call a deal sweetener.
I'm gonna go rig this.
Oh, this is Jeb, our ranch foreman.
Beautiful land.
Thank you.
Mr. Weaver thinks he can run
a thousand pairs through here.
That size herd will put a lot
of pressure on the soil.
More land, more cows, more profit.
[Jeb] Mind if I look around?
Go ahead.
Thank you.
Formal offer.
I think you will find it
to be extremely generous.
[Dolly] I know
you don't like to be pushed,
but with all the money Dad's
raised, he's eager to close.
[Weaver] Expand or die.
[ravens cawing]
My family's had this land
for almost 150 years.
Lot of blood and pain
and heartache came with it.
- slow, melancholy music ♪
- Lord knows I've had my share.
All you've been through here,
offer like this will
turn your fortunes around.
Clearing out the ashes
of a fire that killed my friend.
Standing in the shadow of a
house where my wife died.
There's definitely been
a dark cloud over East Camp.
But come spring,
grass will grow,
calves will start hitting the ground,
this ranch will be full of life again.
What are you saying?
My life's been defined
by losing the things I love.
And
East Camp's one thing I can hold on to.
Can't say that
I'm not disappointed, Kayce.
But if this is what you want,
I'm happy for you.
Jeb!
I didn't mean to get his hopes up.
Yours, either.
When it comes to the Duttons,
my hopes were never about East Camp.
[truck doors closing]
♪
How's everybody doing?
Confused if
you're initiating conversation.
- [scoffs]
- What's got that spring
in your step, cowboy?
Mind's at ease, I guess.
Does this mean
you're keeping East Camp?
Yeah.
I'll be damned. You can finally
take me for a ride.
Probably gonna be a lot of riding.
I want to make part of the ranch
an equine therapy center for vets.
[Andrea] Oh.
Time with horses
was healing for Garrett.
I'm gonna name it after him.
[Calvin] No better way to honor him.
Speaking of second chances,
you and I got one.
Rudy Carpenter.
The fugitive you guys left
up on the mountain?
[Andrea] Ugh, it's like he can sniff
out a big score to come take credit for.
What brings you this way, Harry?
Well [clears throat]
We got some résumés we need to go over
to fill the hole in our lineup.
[Calvin] Miles is only suspended
temporarily.
- He's gonna be back eventually.
- I'm not talking about Miles.
With Andrea headed back to D.C.,
we got some big boots to fill.
Slow, tense music ♪
You're leaving us?
I'm sorry. I
I didn't know how to tell you guys.
[Harry] Yeah, she ships out tomorrow.
Oh.
Thanks, Harry.
[Belle] Well, you got what you wanted.
Congrats.
[Kayce] Gravitational pull
of home is hard to resist.
[Miles] There must be a way
to spin bringing down
a cartel on Broken Rock in our favor.
My intentions were pure.
Well, in Washington, intentions
are trumped by optics.
You disobeyed an order
and abused your badge.
[sighs] Sometimes good men
have to do bad things.
[scoffs] You sound like Kayce Dutton.
Not sure if I should be proud
or terrified.
Done a lot of good
for Broken Rock, Miles.
[engine revving]
[Miles] Look out!
[tires squealing]
Gun!
- [gunfire]
- [tires squeal]
[gunfire]
The wolves have returned.
[Andrea] Well, seems fitting my
final act is cleaning up the mess
you and Cal created when you left
Rudy Carpenter on that mountain.
Well, it was hunt him
or save Tom Weaver.
[scoffs] You think
Weaver would return the favor
after you left him at the altar?
If he's a real rancher,
he'll know why I can't sell.
I don't know.
Duttons and Weavers feuding
gives you and Dolly
some Romeo and Juliet vibes.
- Okay, this I will not miss.
- [laughs]
slow, gentle music ♪
Decision wasn't easy.
Well, I wish you'd reconsider,
but I know better than trying
to talk sense into city folk.
[phone buzzing]
Hey, Mo.
Wait. What?
I'll be right there.
What's going on?
Chairman Rainwater's vehicle
got shot up on his way
- to the airport.
- Another attack?
- He survive?
- [Kayce] I got to go keep him out
of the crosshairs at my place.
Slow, suspenseful music ♪
[Kayce] Ranch is quiet.
Is there any chance you were followed?
Doubled back three times to
make sure we didn't have a tail.
Who knows you came here?
Only Cameron Standing Bear.
He's an outstanding Tribal Officer.
He's stationed
at the edge of your property.
I'm sorry, Kayce, for bringing
my problems to your land.
Sensing some irony in that.
[Miles] You have anyone on the outside
tracking down the assailants?
The attack didn't happen
on tribal land.
- Our police have no authority.
- [footsteps approaching]
I thought you went to Grandpa
Long's when I sent the hands home.
Prefer sticking with you.
[Thomas] This can't be a
coincidence that this happened
right as we're firing our last
salvo against the mine.
[Mo] Dark forces
behind the bomb attack have
crept back out of the shadows.
[Miles] Maybe Council Member Irons
worried his op-eds
weren't moving the needle
and decided to use bullets
instead of words?
No, Nathan Irons
is all bark and no bite.
He's an opportunist at worst.
He did know you was going
to the airport today.
Slow, suspenseful music ♪
[Miles] I'll head to Broken Rock,
see if I can sniff anything out.
[door opens]
[door closes]
Okay. Clerk confirmed
Paul Daniels hasn't
left his room all day.
No visitors, either.
Well, intel says Rudy Carpenter's
meeting Daniels here today,
so, we sit and wait.
This the kind of high-octane hit
you'd hope to send you off?
[Calvin] Yeah, should prepare
you for the op tempo downshift
you're gonna face in D.C.
You'll realize this tactical
Swiss Army knife's a unicorn.
Getting a little salty in here.
Well, I guess I deserve it
for not telling you all
- I was leaving.
- [Calvin] Look, I know
you want your gig back at D.C., Dre,
but you never know.
Things might open up here.
Might be running this team
sooner than you think.
Oh, really? You going somewhere?
[Belle] Look, you sure you want to put
the Fed pantsuit back on,
deal with all the politics,
watch your mouth 24/7?
The Deputy Marshal Cruz I know
loves the open range.
She can't stand being fenced in.
[Andrea] Also can't stand bugs, animals,
or being kidnapped and tortured.
All right, deflect all you want,
but Montana has grown on you.
[Calvin] Just make sure you're
running towards something you want
and not away from something you don't.
Slow, contemplative music ♪
[Thomas] This home feels
more settled since my last visit.
You and Tate have come a long way
on your new beginning.
Never would've changed paths
without your guidance.
Well, if the first attempt
on my life led the Duttons here,
I can only imagine
what good fortune
the second will bring to you.
- [door opens]
- [footsteps approach]
Cameron missed a check-in.
Call's not going through.
Nothing.
Wi-Fi's down.
Someone could be jamming our signal.
I'll go check on your officer.
Alone?
Need you to keep an eye on Tate.

Yo, Coyo, what's up?
They made another move on Rainwater.
At East Camp?
Killed the officer on watch,
jammed up our comms at the cabin.
Where are they?
Headed toward the cabin.
Could use a few more rifles by my side.
Intense, dramatic music ♪
[clicks tongue] Hyah, hyah. Hyah. Hyah!
[Andrea] We rolling out
for Kayce or what?
Letting this white whale slip away
again will bring Gifford's wrath.
Yeah, well, I'd rather face Gifford's
wrath than fail another teammate.
Could use Miles's gun in this fight.
Call him.
Kayce's signaling us.
- Signaling what?
- A warning.
You two, get upstairs.
[Thomas] There's no time
for Dutton stubbornness.
These people want me dead.
Then we need to be armed and ready.
It's come to that.
This soil knows bloodshed too well.

We always fight for family, right?
[Mo] Seems our most innocent become
collateral damage in our battles.
[Thomas] Where politicians go,
- calamity follows.
- [footsteps approach]
Count ten enemies down hard outside.
Team's pulling biometrics.
Hopefully, get a read
on who these guys were.
Tactics and equipment
point to professional operators.
Likely hired by the same dark
forces behind the mine bombing.
[Mo] Whoever they are,
they could be sending
another wave this way.
It's not safe here.
[Calvin] Yeah.
Let's fall back to the compound.
We'll start digging
into these assailants.
Find out how they knew
the chairman was here.
Low, dramatic music ♪
Okay, Rainwater,
Mo, and Tate are settled in.
What'd y'all learn?
Okay, we got IDs on the crew
that hit East Camp.
They're all Spec Ops vets.
And the team leader,
his real name is Lance Blaine.
He's South African.
The other dead men are foreign, too.
So we got international
mercenaries going after Rainwater?
When killing's all you're
good at, that work will find you.
Their service records don't overlap.
I can't find a connection.
Yeah, financials show the
same shadowy payments like
to the Trailkeepers
after bombing the rally.
Yeah, which led us nowhere.
Phone records from the tribal
officer killed at East Camp.
He called Council Member Irons' office
after he was posted as guard.
Uh, keeping him in the loop
as to the chairman's safety?
Or selling him out. Irons wrote
that pro-mine op-ed last week.
Tribal council member
behind these attacks?
Could be the inside man
being used by a bigger bad.
Yeah, well, whatever his role
is, man, he's the best lead we got.
Let's find out where Irons is. Okay?
Jock up?
Man, I think Tate's been through
enough today. Okay?
You hold it down here.
Melancholy music ♪
Since when do cops get a game room?
Cal created it to be
our decompression chamber.
Never thought you'd need it.
You know, the last time
you took a life,
nearly broke your mother and I.
I won't be hiding
under any beds this time.
I thought I could break
our family's cycle of violence.
It always ends up in a familiar place.
[footsteps approach]
Hey. Thanks for jumping
into the fire with us today.
Like you told me,
there's always gonna be a snake.
And you were more dangerous.
[Miles] Felt good making an impact.
Just hope I get more chances.
[Tate] You got Call of Duty?
[Miles] Foosball's best we can offer.
Game on.
♪
These are the coordinates
Irons' cell phone pinged.
Not much out here.
Good place for a meetup
away from prying eyes.
Well, had enough surprises
for one day, so
let's get heads on swivels, y'all.
Hey, that's Irons' vehicle.
Tense, suspenseful music ♪
[Calvin] Irons, drop that weapon.
Vehicle clear.
[Belle grunts]
When the attack failed,
he must've felt the walls
closing in on him.
Yeah. Punched his own ticket.
Nathan Irons took his own life?
[Miles] Punished himself
for the blood on his hands
before anyone else could.
Well, he and I battled,
but I don't believe this.
We both know the lengths folks will go
when their land gets involved.
If Irons is involved,
he did somebody else's bidding.
Then we need to find out
who's holding the leash.
Hey, Chairman.
- Hmm?
- Your motorcade's here.
Low, dramatic music ♪
Our sheepdog took care
of our flock today.
Aho, kholá.
Thank you for your sacrifice, Kayce.
I'm proud to call you my brother.
Go end this fight.
[Calvin] Stood tall today, man.
- Had your teammates' backs.
- That's never been an issue.
Keeping my judgment under control is.
Takes time, man,
to become calm in the chaos.
Spent most of my life
trying to make an impact.
Finally found my calling,
and I blew it.
Eh, you're not the only marshal
around here
who's taken matters into his own hands.
And this unit's not so elite
if it's down two manhunters.
I'm reinstated?
To desk duty.
[chuckles]
I could live with that, boss.
Yeah, all right.
I can't believe the puppet
master behind those attacks
was the political opponent
of Rainwater.
Lot of cash for a Broken Rock
member to be throwing around.
Well, we're gonna dig
into Irons's finances.
See if we can link him
to those attackers.
Yeah.
Y'all made Montana proud today,
and this unit has exceeded
even my expectations.
Such a shame we're losing
one of our finest.
Best of luck to you,
Deputy Marshal Cruz.

Hey.
Well, let's not turn this into a wake.

Hmm. Seems like you did, too.
Glad to know you're capable of that.

Yeah. I came up with it

Mm.

[Calvin] I knew you couldn't
quit us, Dre.
You don't seem to be

Having second thoughts?
Only about who's behind
this attack on Rainwater.
The coroner's throwing shade
on Irons' suicide.
[Calvin] Come on.
Okay. So there's no powder burns
on the hands, but
there are defensive wounds.
- So he was murdered?
- [Andrea] Well, the call from
the tribal cop came to Irons' office,
but his assistant confirmed
that he wasn't there.
Irons and the tribal cop are patsies.
[Calvin]
Yeah, but, okay, so who squealed
about Rainwater
being on East Camp, then?
Check this out.
One of Kayce's cameras caught this,
an East Camp ranch hand
just after Rainwater arrived.
Okay, so Kayce sent him home early.
I mean, probably calling
his girlfriend or something.
It's not enough to get a warrant
for his phone records.
Kind of grasping at straws there.
I'd feel better leaving if I
knew who shot up Kayce's house.
This guy's got an address just
outside of Bozeman, okay?
I can stop there and just
see who he called.
[Calvin] No, you're not.
You're gonna catch your flight.
Okay? We'll go check on the ranch hand.
Come here.
Dramatic music ♪
Hey.
You do us proud, Dre. Okay?
[Belle] All right. Don't be a stranger.
You know, I don't know if I can handle
this frat house without you.
You kidding? You might be the
toughest operator in this unit.
Stop it. I know you think
I'm little Ms. Perfect.
No, that's what you wanted me to think.
But after learning the
family mess that you survived,
I respect you for never settling
for less than you deserve.
Mm
- Damn, that looks good.
- [phone chimes]
Mo said Rainwater's speech worked.
He blocked the mine?
60-day suspension of work
for full review of alternate sites.
Sounds like
the nail in the coffin to me.
Guess it took more than Mom's
picture to save Broken Rock.
You never waved the white flag.
She'd be proud of you.
You, too.
Well, I'm not sure she'd appreciate
the house getting shot to hell, though.
Before you became a marshal,
East Camp was just us
and our family ghosts.
But with your teammates,
Mo, Rainwater, the Weavers,
you brought life back to it.
You're stronger than I am, son.
That's the way it should be.
I love you.

Come on in.
Forgive the intrusion [sighs]
but
we heard about what went down here.
Yeah, we got lucky, didn't we?
Dodged a bullet not buying
this place, Mr. Weaver.
Literally.
Situation like this
puts things in perspective.
[Dolly] Tate, my dad was wondering
if you'd want to go bass fishing?
[chuckles softly] In Texas?
I figured a change of scenery
might do you good.
It'd ease my mind,
if it's not an imposition.
Oh, not at all. And you come join us
when you've cleaned this mess up.
I'm gonna go pack.

Uh, what about you?
Going fishing, too?
Oh
who cares about Texas?

workplace boundaries?
You know, Utah's got
