Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey, hey.Walker?
What the hell?Oh, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I'm here to save you.
Look, um, bad news, all right? I think I was followed here.
Or-or maybe you. Yeah, let's go with you.
Yeah.I hate you.
I missed you too, Flor.
Whoever followed me, whoever's out there could be the killer
who took out Spider. [clears throat]
Or, uh...
killers. Plural.
I got another guy coming up the south side.
You think they made me?I think we should get.
ASAP.
Let's go.
[grunting]
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Hey.
Randall?RANDALL:Yeah.
Hey! What... [stammers]
You... Wait, you're...
You're a-a-a Ranger now? When did that happen?
RANDALL: Yeah. Two weeks ago.WALKER: Two...
Yeah. There was a barbecue?
[chuckles]: The bar... The barbecue was for you?
RANDALL:Yeah.WALKER: Dude, good on you.
Um, what are, what are, what are... what are you doing here?
James got me following your ass.
It's a good thing. We got company.
Guys. Morgan's out there. Del Rio.
He might have made me,
and I think he's here to clean up shop.
But I think I still might have a chance.
I need to get back out there.WALKER:No, no,
no, no, no. Wait, wait, what?I'm close
to connecting with Serano,
proving he's behind the Austin shooting
and shutting this whole damn thing down.
Look, Morgan was back at the bar when Spider was killed.
If my cover was blown,
he would have taken me down then.
Trust me on this.Uh...
I am too close to turn back.
Or maybe you're just too close.[door closes]
Okay, look, now's a good time to call the play.
Okay. This will only hurt for a minute.
[Walker grunts]
[grunting]
Hey!
On him! I'm on him! I'm on him!Go!
Stop right there!
[grunts]
Don't move.
[line rings]GERI: Side Step.
Hey, Geri. It's Bonham Walker.
Hey.BONHAM: Yeah, listen,
I'm guessing there's a whole flock of Davidsons
sitting there right now looking pretty gloomy at the bar.
Yes, sir.BONHAM: Well, we're supposed
to have some kind of a family summit per Cordell.
Hmm. And let me guess.
He's-he's a no-show.BONHAM: There it is.
Mm-hmm.BONHAM: Geraldine,
would you please give the Davidsons a round,
put some food in that boy of theirs
and, well, hell, put it on our tab?
We're gonna put this whole thing to rest for the night.
Of course, sir.
You know I'm a Walker through and through.
Thank you, darling.
Morgan tailed you here.And now
he's in custody. Thank you for that.Sure.
Yeah, I mean, that bought you a couple hours, right?
Couple days, maybe?
But when he gets out, you don't think he's gonna tell them
about Yvette de la Cruz's escape?
Or what about the fact
that Serano clearly has no trouble
picking off his own people?Yeah.
I considered all of this, Walker.
Believe it or not, I've trained for it,
the same as you, and I am telling you I'm close.
Serano's suspicious, fine.
One of his men just disappeared.
Morgan is gonna smell like a big, fat traitor to him.
Until he gets out and talks.Or I get
to Serano first, which is what I've been trying to do. For you.
Yeah, I know.I figured.
Figured. And you're pissed.
But guess what? We did it
because we know what you would have done.
No. You don't know me.[chuckles]No? No?
No, you don't...I actually
hate how much I know.
The way you were when you came back.
All dark and rogue and unhinged,
you name it. I know.
And maybe worse, I get it.
Which is why I can't let it happen again.
Exactly. And I can't, either.
So why the hell would I let you
do the same damn thing to yourself?[phone chimes]
Well,
it's on.
Serano just asked me to dance.
WALKER: Me and Micki are both in Del Rio now.I don't know.
Keeping you in sounds like too much of a risk, Micki.They'll have
a 72-hour hold on Morgan, maybe.
What if he talks?
If he talks, he still doesn't know my name.
I kicked Walker's ass,
and I ran.
Uh, that was a plan we made together.
We had talked about it beforehand.
Mm.DENISE: Which was smart.
I think Ramirez stays in.
WALKER: Okay. Then I'm in, too.
Uh, only if...
weclose this together.
[mouths]Just don't start any fires, Cordi.
Yep. [clears throat]
I'm sorry, Coach.
Man, do I wish you were still my star player.
What're you getting yourself into, Little Walker?
[exhales]
I think I'm still messed-up
about stuff that happened last year.
That's fair.And when it comes
to family, it's just like I get aggro now.
I just... I don't want something to happen again.
Yeah, I-I get that.
And, also, I'm supposed to think
about college and decide my entire, like, life path?
How do I do that?
Well, there are steps.
It's a process, Stella.
Yeah, but people have been processing this
for a very long time and have jobs lined up
for, like, 2026.
[chuckles]: Oh, that's intense.[chuckles]
Look,
there are always people like that.
Doesn't mean that's the correct answer
on the quiz of life.
Not to sound cheesy.
It did, though.
Just a little bit. [chuckles]Yeah,
it did.
Stel,
I went through three jobs in the past year alone.
It's okay to take a minute to figure things out.
Okay.
I'm just... I'm freaking a little
because my dad didn't come home
last night, which never feels great.
AUGUST: Stella, don't worry.
It's a casecase, not a Duke case, all right?
He's coming back.Who's Duke?
I don't really want to talk about Dad.COLTON: Yeah, I don't want
to talk about Mom.Awesome. Let's not talk about either of them.
We'll all be better off.
Yeah.[phone chimes]
[vehicle approaching]
[engine turns off]
I admire it so much.
I really do. How you care for the land.
I'll have to ask your advice
when we're really up and running.
I-I'm sorry. I'm really sorry
that we weren't able to make it.
It's all good.
So,
you're really taking it all back on again, huh?[sighs]
Well, we've been gone from here too long.
It matters to family.
You understand.Yeah.
[clears throat]
Yeah. Yeah. Certainly a lot of work to do.
[chuckles] Yeah.[chuckles]
There was, uh, chaos around here,
I heard.
That never looks good.
And the barn.
Well...
No one ever did rebuild that barn.
[exhales] Well...
[clears throat] I will give you a call
when I start the gardens.
Yeah, you...
You know what you're doing.
Knee-deep in dirt.

WALKER: There's the boss himself, Serano.
[camera clicks]
Hey, who's the other guy?
WALKER: Micki? You okay?
Micki, who is that?
Who's the other guy?
It's the one that got away.
