Will you get a trooper on the phone and

They had to amputate both his legs.
Still might lose his left forearm.
Oof. I still need to talk to him.
Yes, ma'am. And good luck with that.
When's Clark's stuff
comin' from the trailer?
What's Clark's shit doin'
in the evidence room?
Well, it's evidence.
Yeah, well, move it someplace sanitary.
The place is disgusting. Stinks.
Alright, I'm gonna need a
tetanus shot just to look at this shit.
- How many boxes we got?
- Nineteen.
Nineteen. Alright, well
call Navarro.
Hit up her Trooper command and tell

I do. I hate everyone.
Hate you, especially now.

What?
What?
Ask the question.
(LIZ SIGHS)
What happened the last case
you worked with Navarro?
The Wheeler case
'cause that was it for you guys, right?
Alright.
Only one bedtime story.
It was a murder-suicide.
William Wheeler.
He was a bad, bad motherfucker.
Sexual assault
armed robbery,
assault and battery.
He was in and out a bunch.
The last time he came out,
he took up with an 18-year-old girl.
He beat her, hard.
Sent her to the hospital
twice.
Broken arm
smashed jaw
some other things.
We went to his place a buncha times
but she wouldn't report him.
His story was always the same.
"Ah, she was drunk, Officer."
"Fell down the stairs, Officer."
We knew how that was gonna end
but there was nothin' we could do.
(UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING)
Then we got the call.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)
We were too late.
He killed her
and he shot himself.

They were both dead when we got there.
Navarro couldn't get over it.
Uh, she was

somethin' we should've done.
She blamed me, of
course. And it got nasty.
Transferred over to Troopers, and
end of story.
Gotta keep icin' that thing, huh?
It's funny.

Mommy?

You got any mac and cheese?

Hey, do you know what the name of

That's Puddles.
That's what they called
her 'cause she cried a lot.
All the mean unicorns called her that
but she was just super hungry. Come on.
- SUSAN: It's okay.
- We're gonna go make some mac and cheese.
- Does that sound good?
- Yeah.
I'ma tell you all about Puddles.
All her story about how
she cooks mac and cheese.
- Here, sit down on this.
- CHILD: Okay.
You need to start talkin'.
(DEEP BREATH)
I went to Tsalal to give
haircuts to the men there.
Annie came with me one time.
Once.
I didn't wanna bring her.
Sh-She wouldn't take a no.
She was, like, obsessed with coming.
So, fuck it, I could use the company.
And what happened that one time?
Annie and Ray hit it off.
They talked all night.
She showed him her tattoo.
He was, like, fixated on it.
(LIGHT MUSIC PLAYING)
This one?
Yeah, that's it.
- Do you know what it means?
- She dreamt it.
We were in high school. A buncha times.
She got the tattoo, the dreams stopped.
LIZ: Alright. Stir, stir, stir.
And then, all the unicorns
went skating on the lake
that Puddles had made
with her rainbow tears.
Ugh, I love skating.
I thought it was gonna
be a one-night thing.
Pretty soon, they were
hangin' out all the time.
And what about Clark? Was he violent?
Anything to make you think he might
- do something?
- No. He was, he was quiet.
He was I mean, he was a little weird,
but he was crazy about her.
But Annie changed when
they started goin' out.
Changed how?
She didn't want anybody
to know they were together.
And that was weird.
You could've told me back then.
I would've protected you.
I was terrified.
Plus, I was seeing a guy from Tsalal.
Wait who?
Oliver Tagaq.
Oh, there-there's, there's no
Oliver that works at Tsalal.
He was the equipment engineer.
He left right before Annie died.
Um and, um
do you know where we
could find this Oliver?
SUSAN: Last I heard,
somewhere out on the ice.
Probably hunting. I don't
think he's lookin' to be found.
(DEEP BREATH)
After they found her,
I did call the police.
I just didn't wanna talk to
you 'cause you'da known me.
So, I didn't leave my name.
But I told 'em about Clark.
Who'd you talk to?
LIZ: Prior, where's your dad? Over.
PETER (OVER RADIO): He's still
out in the search, Chief.
There's plenty of radio signal
out there, he's hidin' his ass.
PETER: I'll get him to call
the minute he gets back.
Yeah, okay, you do that, and, um,
see if you can find an Oliver Tagaq.
He was an engineer six
years ago at Tsalal.
- Got that?
- PETER: On it, over.
That son of a bitch
takes me off the case,
and then he buries this lead?
- Question is, why is Hank fuckin' around
- Don't "Ask the question" me!
Okay? I'll tell you
why he did it right now.
It's the fucking mine behind it.
You know I'm right.
- I don't know shit.
- Well, then you're a shit detective.
Yeah, well, whatever. Whatever you say.
Annie protests against the
mine, Annie gets murdered,
the police shush it
all, do the fucking math.
- You do the fuckin' math.
- (SIGHS)
Alright, without the
mine, there's no town.
50% of the population works for it,
which means half the
people who live here
have got a reason to silence Annie K.
And what about Clark, creepy boyfriend?
What, you think the mine's
responsible for him too?
According to your conspiracy theory,
Tsalal and Clark had
nothin' to do with it.
Is that it?
Not sure yet.
And what about her tongue?
Now, what's-what's your
explanation for her tongue
poppin' up six years after she dies?
And what about the men on the ice?
Why'd they go out there?
Oh. (SCOFFS) Come on.
Don't give me that voodoo, E.T., cosmic

Clark's relationship.

Hey.
- Chief Danvers wants you to call
- She can wait.
Come here for a second.
Uh, I was cleanin' out the
garage and I found these.
Yeah, I know, Darwin's only four,
but, uh, you were already a
pretty damn good little skater
by that age, so.
If ya
take him out, shoot me a text, huh?
Yeah, sure.
What's Danvers up to?
Uh, she's goin' through
the trailer's evidence.
She and Navarro?
Yeah.
I don't know what the hell
they're doin' together.
I thought they hated each other.
You know what happened there?
She won't tell me.
No idea.
EVANGELINE NAVARRO: Hey!
You received a direct call
about Annie K's and Raymond
Clark's relationship.
A direct call, and you didn't report it?
Danvers, tell your
girl here to stand down.
You talk to me.
Tell me why the fuck
you withheld information
- from a murder investigation?
- Oh, please.
That woman was sleeping
with half of Ennis.
What did you want me to do?
Log every dude she was
banging in the region?
You piece of shit. I swear
to God, you're gonna join
- your boys over here.
- No, no, no. No, no, no. Calm the fuck down.
Calm!
And you, go back to
your fuckin' search
and get rid of your hillbilly friends.
Or you're gettin' a negligence report
for your mishandling of the Kowtok case.
Maybe I oughta file a report on you
for playing Mrs. Robinson with my kid.
Hm?
You do your fuckin' job.
EVANGELINE: That's it?
"Do your fucking job"?
That's all he gets?
- Hey, where you goin'?
- Fuck outta here.
Who's Mrs. Robinson?
(SIGHS) Where's my forensic tech?
Well, there's a blizzard
out in North Bay.
Visibility's shit. No
planes are takin' off,
so they're gonna try again tomorrow.
Ah, tomorrow's no good.
They're gonna thaw. And they're
gettin' shipped out to Anchorage.
Well, I have an idea.
What?
- I don't know if you're gonna like it.
- Well ?
My cousin lives in White Lake.
He's a vet.
Works a lot with large animals.
How long before you can get him here?
