9-1-1: Lone Star (2020) s04e01 Episode Script

1
Alright.
I don't think they're gonna let me
on the bumper cars with this bear.
No problem. We'll hit
the fried cheese guy instead.
Cheese?
Caleb, you already had fried soup.
I didn't even know that was possible.
These dudes can fry anything.
So, what are you gonna name him?
Oh. Uh Bear?
- You think he sucks.
- No.
I just don't know
why you would spend $80
trying to win this thing.
Because it's not about the money, Bri.
It's about showing you
that I'll fight for you.
Look, your family
keeps calling me a loser.
Well, I just proved them wrong
by spending 80 bucks
to win you that $10 bear.
I guess you did.
The point is,
I'm in it for the long haul.
I'm not going anywhere.
That actually means a lot.
Um, 'cause I've been
thinking about our future
I gotta go.
- Caleb.
- I think it was the fried soup.
Told you not to eat that!
Excuse me.
Are you okay?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, are you okay?
What the hell?
Oh, no.
Hey!
Hey, I'm stuck in here!
Oh.
Oh, my God.
Somebody help! Help!
Caleb!
Caleb!
Austin, if you wanted an excuse
to cancel your morning jog,
well, here it is.
Showers are rolling in,
and with them,
gray skies and some drizzle.
You guys hear that?
Showers coming.
Yeah, B-shift already
prepped the rain gear.
Yeah, slam some migas, Marj.
We got cheese, pico de gallo, what else?
- Olives.
- Veto.
Olives ruin everything.
- What?
- Veto Override.
Black olives are a Tex-Mex staple.
Hey, TK, important migas question.
- Are they paleo?
- Nah, man.
That's not the question
I was gonna ask, bro.
TK, your wedding bod is on point.
You can eat a carb.
Oh, he's cranky.
Bro, what's going on?
Carlos and I toured a wedding venue.
- Another?
- Yeah.
How many is that?
Fourteen.
This one's just outside of town.
Seats 150, wildflowers everywhere.
And it's in our budget.
It sounds perfect, man.
It is perfect.
So what's the problem?
Every other couple
in Austin thinks so, too.
So now there's an 18-month waitlist.
Whoa, that's almost like
a year and a half away.
Babe, that's exactly
a year and a half away.
- So I was right, babe.
- Inadvertently.
So we have to settle
for something less perfect
or we wait for 18 months.
You're talking to a woman
who was engaged for 13 years.
And we see how well
that turned out, huh?
Okay.
- Damn thing.
- Hey, Judd.
Where did you and Grace get married?
My Uncle Cash's ranch.
Does he rent it out?
No, they got all these
loose hogs out there,
it'd be an insurance nightmare.
Whoa!
This thing's a piece of trash.
Hey, hey, man, gentle
with the steam wand.
No, it ain't the steam wand,
it's the filter bucket.
Here, I got you, brother.
So I guess everyone is cranky today.
Yeah, I'm cranky.
Y'all ever heard of
the bare bottom method?
That sounds like an HR violation.
Potty training. What day are you on?
Seven.
I would be cranky, too.
That drive to work didn't help
with the crankiness neither.
Y'all try to take 35?
- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, yeah. Total cluster.
Yeah. So I went over
on the, uh, side streets.
Some jackass on a motorcycle
pulls up on me,
starts trying to goad me into racin'.
I ended up with my coffee in my lap.
- Ooh.
- Oh, man.
Is that him?
That son of a bitch
must have followed me up here.
Oh wow.
Hey, buddy.
No way.
You gotta be kiddin' me.
Yeah, the, uh, weatherman said drizzle,
so I parked my baby inside.
You bought a crotch rocket, Cap?
This isn't a crotch rocket.
This is a classic cruising bike.
I mean, look at those lines.
This design speaks
to heritage, traditions.
It's a connection to the past.
Not yours.
Is that what the salesman told you?
That is actually what
my ridin' buddy Red said.
Oh, "Red said."
You got a ridin' buddy now?
Several of 'em, actually.
Yeah, we met at a stoplight,
you know, just chopping it up and, uh
I mean, that's the thing.
It's not just the freedom of the road.
It's the fellowship.
Hey, it's hard to explain
if you haven't lived it.
And how long have you had this?
Since Thursday.
This bike is an expression
of me living my best life.
Well, cheers to that.
And I invite you all to join me.
Embrace the good.
Just don't touch the bike.
- Wait, can I just sit on it, Cap?
- No.
Sitting is touching.
Um
You, uh,
you think your daddy's okay?
Yeah. Just as long as he doesn't
wear leather to the wedding.
Ay, Carlitos.
Why wait for some magazine cover venue?
You two are pretty enough as it is.
Si, mama, pero I'd rather
not have my future husband
moping on the day.
He fell in love with the place, Ma.
I thought he fell in love with you.
Fine.
At least it gives us
lots of time to plan.
- Do you mind?
- No, go ahead.
Hello?
Oh, hi.
Uh, yeah, let me
Let me talk to my fiancé
and I'll get back to you, okay?
No, no, no, no.
You'll, you'll hear
from us by the end of business today.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah. Thank-thank you so much.
Alright, bye.
What?
That was the dream venue.
A couple from Fort Worth just broke up,
which means they have an opening.
In eight weeks.
Eight weeks?
Yeah.
Mira, mijo, no te preocupes, okay?
We're gonna pull this together.
You know Marcos from the panaderia,
he makes a great layer cake.
You're not worried about the cake?
No.
You haven't told TK the truth?
- Carlitos.
- Look, I was going to.
Okay? I thought I had more
You need to tell him today.
Yes. I-I guess I'm gonna
have to tell him today.
- Que es eso?
- What?
Que es eso?
I have no idea.
Um
Alright, grab it.
Let's go, let's go, grab it.
I'm sorry. Did you say "frogs"?
Yes, frogs!
It's raining frogs!
Sir, can you tell me your location?
Yeah, yeah, we're at the county fair!
It's, uh it's parking lot, uh
It's parking lot
Dad!
- Sir?
- Dad!
Sir, can you hear me?
He can't speak!
He has a frog in his throat.
Anybody ever seen anything like this?
Yeah. The book of Exodus.
It happens.
Waterspout hits the right pond,
sucks up the frogs
and whatever into the clouds.
Oh, yeah. Like Sharknado.
Exactly like Sharknado.
Alright.
Judd and Mateo Halligans, backboard.
Paul, Marjan, make yourself helpful.
- You got it.
- Yep.
Help! Over here!
You guys need to help my dad.
He's choking to death.
Take us to him.
A frog dropped down his throat.
I tried to get it out, but I couldn't.
Sir.
Okay, I need you to relax.
Okay, we're gonna check you out.
Alright. Okay.
Just try to relax.
Just relax. Hm.
Yeah, that's a frog, alright.
Nancy, McGill clamp.
- Copy.
- It's alright.
We're gonna handle this.
- McGill.
- Okay.
Up.
Ah
Excuse me, step back. Thank you.
Ma'am, can you hear me?
How many?
We don't need tickets, ma'am.
Oh, of course you don't.
First responders get in free.
Really?
Can we just get her
out of there, please?
Oh, yeah, sorry, Cap.
Slippery little sucker.
Gonna need the camera.
Copy.
Uh, it slipped down further.
His pulse is dropping down, Cap.
Forget the camera. No time.
Help me get him up.
Are we gonna lay him down?
No. Heimlich. Okay. Alright.
Dad!
Alright, sir.
I need you to breathe for me, okay?
You're gonna be just fine.
Thank you.
Hey, tell me that's not hail.
Nope. That's gorilla hail.
- Hey! Everybody, take cover!
- Everybody, take cover!
- Hey! Take cover!
- Everybody, come on!
Alright, alright, new plan.
Make a shield.
Um, we need to close the doors now.
At least it can't get any worse.
It can always get worse, Chavez.
This thing's just getting started.
Huh!
Isn't it pretty?
Anybody else feel like the calm's
on the wrong side of this storm?
Man, that was even weirder
than the volcano.
Nothing is weirder
than lava at mini golf.
- Hey, Carlos, you okay?
- Yeah, just, um
looking for TK.
Medical's pulling in now.
Thanks.
Hey, Carlos.
Hi, baby. You here for lunch?
- Um
- Please, just don't say frog legs.
Actually, uh, can we talk?
Sure. Yeah.
You're pissed.
No.
Maybe.
Just a little confused. Um
So you're married.
In name only.
To a woman?
Back then, that was
the only way you could do it.
Who is this person? I mean,
did she need a green card or something?
No, we went to high school together.
She was a few years ahead of me.
We were best friends,
and we were both
lost I guess?
When I came out to my parents
and the way that they never
talked about it again, it
it felt like I'd disappointed them.
- So you married a woman?
- I married my best friend.
And did she know you were gay?
She knew everything about me.
We loved each other, TK.
And we tried to convince ourselves
that we could make it work.
We were wrong.
But you never got a divorce?
We meant to.
But things happened.
Well, you'd need
to get a divorce, Carlos.
I'm aware.
Okay. If-if she was your best friend,
then how come I've never met her?
I mean, is she is she still in Texas?
Far as I know. Yeah.
You remember Captain Blake?
Michelle?
Wait, Michelle Blake is your wife?
Michelle is my sister-in-law.
I'm married to Iris.
Iris, Michelle's little sister,
the one that went missing?
I told you things happened.
TK, we all thought she was dead.
Then she came back.
With schizophrenia.
She needed help.
And staying married is helping her?
My health insurance is helping her.
Is she doing better now?
I don't know.
What does Michelle say?
I meant to call them.
Both of them.
There's no excuse.
I'm a terrible friend.
Hey, hey, hey.
No, you're not.
No, you are not, okay?
You're an incredible friend.
Everything's gonna be okay.
We have so much time to figure it out.
We have a year and a half.
- We have eight weeks.
- What?
Eight weeks, what
What do you mean eight weeks?
The venue called.
There was a cancellation.
There's an opening
in eight weeks if we want it.
What?
Baby, that's fantastic!
Um
Is-is eight weeks enough time
to get a divorce?
Better be.
The-the-the state of Texas
requires you to be
divorced a full month before
you can get married again.
What you doin'?
You hangin' a little bell there?
Yep.
What, so's we can hear you
when you pull up?
Ha, no, no, the tailpipes
take care of that.
It's a Gremlin Bell.
- Say what?
- A Gremlin Bell.
- Oh.
- It wards off gremlins and,
and bad spirits.
The theory being you put it
in the lowest point of the bike,
when you're out for a ride
and you ride over a gremlin
and it tries to grab on,
it gets caught in the bell.
Biking community's got
a ton of great stuff like that.
Yeah, we should get a mess of 'em
and put 'em on the rigs,
it'll make things easier.
Oh, no, no. You can't just
go out and buy a Gremlin Bell.
It has to be gifted to you
by another rider
or the magic doesn't work.
Oh, of course.
So one of your, uh,
biker buddies gave you that?
Yeah, Red gave it to me.
Oh, Red. Right.
Uh, Owen?
If I'm outta line here,
you just tell me.
But you okay?
Yeah. Why would you ask me that?
Well, it appears that you've fallen in
with some Hells Angels
that you met at a stoplight.
As your friend, that's concerning.
The Honor Dogs are not Hells Angels.
- Hm.
- They're motorcycle enthusiasts.
Professional guys like you and me.
You'd love 'em.
In fact, I'm invited to a thing
at their roadhouse Thursday.
You should come. Because I think
- I'm getting a cool nickname.
- Ooh, like Red?
Yeah, h-hopefully better than that.
Anyway, you should come.
It'd give you a chance
to dust off your bike.
Well, I ain't got no bike.
Really?
Always pictured you with a bike.
Well, I have a dirt bike.
Don't bring that. Oh!
And first responders
get great deals on these.
I can hook you up with my dude.
I don I don't know.
You know, I feel like I,
I risk my neck enough at work,
and Grace wouldn't like it.
Grace wouldn't like it,
but you would, right?
I see the way you look at this. Oh!
You would have the best nickname
of all time, Easy Ryder.
Get it? Easy Ryder.
Yeah, I get it.
I just, I don't, I don't know
if that's reason enough to invest.
Oh, come on. Change your mind.
You'll have fun.
I ain't gonna fit
on the back of this bike.
We'll go in my car.
A lot of relieved Austinites
as today's violent storm
known as a derecho,
or inland hurricane,
went as quickly as it came
leaving behind some web-footed friends
at the Travis County Fair,
which has now reopened.
But is it safe?
For that, we go to
meteorologist Randi Gray.
If she says
swarm of locusts next, I'm out.
clear skies
and a warmer system rolling in.
We've seen the last
of the precipitation for now.
Though, there is the outside
chance of a mild heat burst.
You said heat burst. What's that?
A heat burst is a rare
atmospheric phenomenon
that can sometimes follow
a storm like we saw today.
A sudden localized increase
in air temperature
and some pretty gusty winds.
What are the odds of that?
Ah, one in a million.
So that's definitely gonna happen.
- Yep.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
Alright, alright. What do we have?
We, uh, we got a ring toss.
Ooh, we got a hayride.
We got a tilt-a-whirl.
What are we even doing here?
Uh, hopefully beating the rush
to the butter sculptures.
Shouldn't you be resting?
I can't let a little frog mouth
spoil our first day in Austin now.
- Kinda hard to come back from.
- Come on, Mel.
Back in Topeka, we had to
drag you away from the fair.
Remember you and Mom
taking all them selfies
with that prize pumpkin?
That was different.
'Cause that was with Mom.
Listen, sweetie.
I know
choosing who to live with was hard.
And I'm so sorry that you
were put in that position.
Excuse me.
Just, you know, look around, hey?
Look around. Texas ain't so bad, right?
Just promise me you won't
start wearing a cowboy hat.
I can't promise you that.
But I can let you,
uh, pick the next ride.
Anything I want?
Yeah, I'm-I'm-I'm gonna
regret that one, huh?
- Whoo!
- Uh
Why did I let you talk me into this?
Come on, Dad, have a little fun.
Yeah, yeah, fun.
So much fun.
Alright, alright.
Hey, ride's over.
Ladies and gentlemen, we apologize.
But we're going to have to
end the ride at this time.
What's going on?
Oh. Well, I think
it's the lightning, sweetie.
- Why are we stopping?
- It's alright.
- What's happening?
- It's alright. It's alright.
Right this way, guys.
Hey, bring us down!
Dad? Why are we going up?
We have to go up to come down, sweetie.
Whoa. Watch out.
Come on. God!
Ow!
Are you alright?
It burned me.
Oh.
Dad, I wanna get out here.
Hey, bring us down!
Ah, it's alright. It's alright.
- Oh, my God!
- Oh!
Where you landed?
Are you in an aircraft, sir?
No. Porta-potty.
The wind picked me up. I'm at the fair.
It's so hot.
What do you see around you?
Uh, the inside of the porta-potty.
Okay. Can you make your way out?
No, stupid thing's melted shut.
Alright, sir, listen, my name is Grace.
I'm gonna get some help to you, okay?
Are you injured?
I'm alright.
Except, uh
I'm sinking.
I'm seeing heatstroke left and right.
Remember, when they've stopped sweating,
that's when they get a red tag.
And where exactly did
the flying toilet come down?
I don't know, like-like
over there somewhere.
Let's hope it didn't
land on anybody else.
Hey, Cap, dispatch is
saying we got a kid
in a honey pot that's taking on water.
Water?
Help! Help!
Help me!
Help, I'm gonna drown!
Okay, Caleb, listen,
I need you calm, okay?
So let's try this.
Take a deep, four-second breath.
Caleb?
The air.
It's burning my throat.
It's all this blue junk.
Unfortunately, some of those chemicals
do release toxic fumes.
What, like poo?
No, like formaldehyde.
Alright, Caleb,
I need you to focus with me
so we can get you outta there, okay?
The water's getting higher!
It's okay. I know it is.
Listen, I need you
to check your pockets.
Do you have a key chain or loose change?
- Anything like that?
- Uh
Some loose change, yeah.
Do you have a quarter?
- Yeah.
- Now take a look
at the roof above you.
There should be flathead rivets.
I need you to use that quarter
to turn it
and try to loosen 'em.
It's working.
It's working!
Okay, good. Just keep on turning it.
No. No!
No, no, no!
What happened?
I dropped it.
I'm gonna drown.
Listen, hang on for me.
I'm checking in with my team.
Captain Strand, what's your status?
Yeah, look,
there's no water in the midway.
Is it maybe blown into
a pool or a reservoir?
Lake Travis?
No,
there's nothing like that in the area.
And his cell phone is still pinging
somewhere on the fairgrounds.
Hey, Gracie, do we have any
water rides or anything here?
Bumper boats, anything like that?
I mean, I looked,
but the fair has 300 vendors,
all on separate contracts.
And he doesn't have a lot of time.
Uh, Cap, I think we got something.
So, not Lake Travis.
Alright. Halligans and chainsaws.
Caleb.
We're in.
I got him. We need Medical.
Caleb? Is he okay?
Caleb!
He's got a pulse, Cap.
In the 120s and stabilizing.
- Caleb.
- Bri.
Thought I was gonna die in the crapper.
Why does he still look cyanotic?
I think he's just blue.
No, Caleb, no, hon, don't sit up.
I told you I'd fight for you.
Oh.
I love you.
Is he okay? Is he gonna be okay?
With a hefty dose of antibiotics,
he should be just fine.
Good.
And maybe I'll treat you both
just to be safe.
Alright, let's clear this whole area.
Every booth, every tent, every ride.
Hey. Help!
Help. We need help.
We managed to get
most everybody off the Zipper.
But there's still two people
trapped up top.
We tried to get the motor going again
and then that happened.
Oh, God.
Hey, we're up here!
Up here!
Hey, Cap, we can run back to the truck
and get the rescue cushion up
in about five minutes.
They don't have five minutes.
Dad
it's really hot in here.
I know, sweetie. I know.
Alright. Let's use this tarp.
We're gonna make a life net.
Stretch it out.
Alright, they tell me
that there's a latch
on the right-hand side
of your bucket up there.
You need to open it, turn around.
You're gonna fall back first.
We will catch you.
Alright.
Alright.
Alright, watch yourself, sweetie.
I can't.
I can't do it.
You don't have to do a thing.
That's why the Lord made gravity.
- Is she alright?
- She's fine.
It's your turn.
Great job. Come on, come with me.
- So, not a tiny man.
- Just hang on tight.
Heard you might need
an extra pair of hands.
Yeah. Get in here.
One
Lord, give me strength.
two
Whoa!
Alright, hold still. How's that?
Okay, when you're changing her bandage,
run this arm under cold water,
alright, Dad?
Will do.
So, Melody, do you like slushies?
- Blue raspberry?
- Absolutely.
We are giving them away
just right over there.
You see that?
Go get one.
I'll get you one too, Dad.
Thanks, sweetie.
Okay.
Let's see.
Oh. Alright.
She's been through a lot today.
Oh, you have no idea.
We're still adjusting to it
just being the two of us.
- Hm.
- Mel's been a real champ.
Oh, yeah.
My girls were my rock
when my husband passed away.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Melody's mother is still alive.
We're, um, recently divorced.
Oh.
Uh, you, um, uh,
do have superficial burns.
Just keep them loosely wrapped
and, uh, I will get you, um,
a roll of Kerlix gauze. Okay?
Thank you.
Saw that.
What?
You and your frog prince.
Oh, he's a patient, Nancy.
A repeat customer.
You should just go ahead
and give him your number
so he stops dialing 9-1-1.
Bye, Nance.
Bye.
Here you go.
Oh, a freebie. Thanks.
Well, consider it
a welcome to the neighborhood.
- Alright.
- Alright.
Uh, can I have that back?
Uh, sure?
Great, um
uh, Melody's about
the same age as my girls,
so maybe we can arrange for a playdate.
A playdate or a date-date?
I'm good with either one.
Alright. The clinic opens at 9:00
and ESL classes at 10:00.
Welcome home.
Can I help you?
Hey. I'm looking for a Michelle Blake.
I tried calling, but it
keeps going to voice mail.
It's probably because
the service is sketchy
where she is in Ecuador.
- Ecuador?
- Yeah.
She's there for three months
on an outreach mission.
Oh.
I'm actually looking
for her sister, Iris.
I know she, she was here for a while.
Do you know where she might be?
Yeah, around the corner.
No. No, you, you aren't listening,
you aren't, you aren't hearing me!
I am listening.
I'm here with you. I hear what
No, if everything is
everything and everything is a circle,
then life is water, right?
But energy plus time is heat.
Don't get in the car!
- Don't go with him!
- I need you to take this pill
because it's gonna help you feel better.
It'll help you relax, okay?
Here you go.
Carlos?
Iris?
Oh, God, I missed you so much.
You should've come sooner.
Coffee?
This place is great.
Saved my life.
Well, Michelle saved my life
with a big assist from you.
Thank you for always having our backs.
She and I got pretty tight
after you went missing.
Whenever she got arrested,
I made sure to be the one doing it.
Yeah. She told me.
She really loves you.
I guess all Blake women do.
Iris, I'm
I'm so sorry, I
I should have checked in earlier.
I thought we were done with that part.
Or do you want me to slap you again?
Not really.
Iris
You look so
Normal? Stable? Un-insane?
Happy.
Yeah, I guess I am, aren't I?
I don't know. Working here and,
and helping the community,
something clicked.
You know, cherry on top?
Free coffee.
Health benefits.
Sanctuary Hearts has
full coverage, meds and all.
I'm no longer
your responsibility, Carlos.
Tell me about this boy.
TK. Well, he, uh
He used to be a firefighter in New York.
- Mm-hmm.
- Now he's a paramedic.
Always good to have
one of those in the family.
- He's been through a lot.
- Hm.
Currently not in a coma.
Also a plus.
What can I say?
He's the one.
Yeah, but is he hot?
Smokin'.
- Well, I can't wait to meet him.
- Well
you'll come to the wedding.
Oh, no.
I think I need to meet him before that.
You know, if I'm gonna sign
the divorce papers
with a clear conscience.
You're joking.
How's tomorrow night?
Huh? I mean, how great is this?
This is why I came to Texas.
Y'all don't have any gay bars
in New York City?
What?
I'm messin' with you.
Hey, this don't look like Hells Angels.
This sort of looks like my
dad's VFW meets, uh, the Elks.
Strand.
Get your manicured butt over here.
Hey!
I hope you don't mind
I brought a friend with me.
- This is Judd Ryder.
- Easy Ryder.
- How do.
- Uh, Th-That's what I was saying.
- Easy Ryder.
- You a firefighter too, Judd?
Yes, sir. 20 years.
You must've signed on as a pup.
- Yeah, right outta high school.
- That's good.
It means that our supposed
higher education system
didn't get a chance to brainwash you.
What are you two heroes drinking?
- Uh, beer suits me.
- Yes, sir.
Uh, mineral water. I'm driving.
Mineral water.
You kill me, Strand.
No, Judd, I got this.
The hell you do.
We don't charge for drinks here.
Bar's always open.
Drinks are always free.
- This him?
- That's him.
Captain Strand, I'm I'm Mikey.
It's an honor to meet a genuine
American hero and patriot.
I-I think Red's been
puffing me up just a little bit.
It must be nice having somebody
else puff you up for once.
You were really in 9/11?
You make it sound like I was in a band.
I think you need to excuse
Mikey's enthusiasm.
Unlike a lot of other folks,
us Honor Dogs revere first responders.
Actually attracting a lot more of 'em.
Alright, Brothers,
the hour is upon us.
It's time to welcome a new member
into our fraternal order.
This is where I get my cool nickname.
Mikey, get your ass up here.
Come on, Mikey!
You earned this.
Mikey, the pain you feel today,
I want you to remember it.
Because it is just a taste of the pain
of what we're all gonna have to endure
if we expect to take this country back
because there is a war coming!
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
Hey, Cap, let's go.
I'm right behind you.
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog! Dog!
I can't believe
that I had brunch with a Nazi.
Oh.
I don't know
if I'd call them fellas Nazis.
Really? It was like
the Beer Hall Putsch of 1923.
How did I miss the warning signs
riding with these guys all this time?
Cap, you were only riding
with them guys for a week.
Yeah, but it was a very intense week.
And a fun one.
- I'm selling the bike.
- Don't sell the bike. No.
You love that bike.
Eh, I love the idea of it.
Well, don't beat yourself up too much.
I get it. I understand.
You do?
Yeah. I mean, you've been kinda
kinda left to your own devices lately.
You've been a little isolated.
- Isolated?
- Yeah.
Look, Catherine took that job in DC.
Alright? Your son's runnin' around.
He's plannin' the rest of his life.
I know Mateo's been spending
a lot of time over at Nancy's.
And you and me don't hardly
see each other outside of work
because I'm at home
trying to learn a toddler
how to potty proper.
- It'll take care of itself.
- Yeah, that's the word.
So you think I'm lonely?
I think you could use a friend.
Oh. The last time
I tried fishing for a friend,
he tried to steal my firehouse
and then tried to knock it down
with a wrecking ball.
No, Judd, I'm not lonely,
I'm just bored.
- You're bored?
- Yeah.
So you you're telling me that
you ain't living your best life?
No.
My best life is
when I have dragons to slay.
Owen, we slay dragons big and small,
all day, every day, at the 126.
And you're our captain.
You got plenty of purpose.
Maybe.
Well, if it's any comfort to you,
you just wait around a minute
and something awful's bound to happen.
Thank you, Judd.
I really appreciate that.
Mm-hmm.

Ecclesiastes 7:8.
"Better is the end of a thing
than the beginning."
Ecclesiastes is one of my favorites.
It's the book that forces us to ask,
what have I accomplished in my life?
Ohh, don't get quiet on me now, church!
Come on! I'm proud of everything
we've done together
over the last 15 years.
The new Rec Center.
Our outreach at the border.
Even that time we let the youth group
cook us Wednesday supper.
Amen!
Lord knows we sure got
some salmonella that day!
Well, enough about the past.
Because the future of our church
is here today.
That's right!
The man that will guide
this congregation
into the New Year
and for many years to come.
Please help me welcome your new pastor,
Reverend Trevor Parks!
Come on, church!
Amen!
Amen. Amen.
Oh, my Lord.
Thank you, Pastor Roper. Mm, mm, mm.
What's wrong, Tommy?
I made a pass at my pastor.
It is indeed a pleasure and a blessing
to be here with you all today.
Some might even say a miracle. Amen!
- Amen!
- Amen.

Oh, you must've seen
the ad for the bike.
I'll bring it around.
Actually, Mr. Strand,
I'm gonna need you to keep the bike.
Do I know you?
Special Agent Rose Kacey.
The FBI would like to talk to you
about some of your associates.
