JUDD RYDER:
There you go.

-Come on. You got this, Wyatt.
-Come on, baby.

Mom, please
don't call me a baby

when I'm trying to lift
an actual baby fork.

(chuckles) Okay.
My bad. My bad.

JUDD: There it is.

Alright, that's it.
That's it.

MARLENE HARRIS:
Mm-hmm. Ooh.

-Hey, alright.
-Good work.

I mean, that was the,
that was the best one yet.

Yeah. Good job, sweetie.

I tell you what,
it's gonna be no time at all

till you lift a fire hose.

Oh, at least nobody's
getting ahead of themselves.

Here you go.

Take a little rest.
You earned it.

This has to be
a good sign, right?

Oh, it's definitely a good sign.

Hopefully after
the nerve and muscle test today,

we'll have some good news.

-JUDD: Mm-hmm.
-Yeah, I know we will.

-Hmm.
-Yeah, me, too. Me, too.

How's your pain?

It's better than yesterday.

And a lot better
than the day before that.

That's another good sign.

Yeah, I mean, in his case,

the pain
is the good sign, right?

Hi. I know y'all are waiting
for the tech to come by

to administer
the electromyogram

and-and nerve conduction
velocity tests.

Yeah, but only for about
the last six hours or so.

I'm so sorry, but she got
called to another unit.

She'll have to come by tomorrow.

Oh, for crying out loud.

Uh, tomorrow is fine, right?

It's not like
I'm going anywhere.

I'm so sorry.
We'll bring by dinner soon.

Alright, thank you.

Y'all pardon me for a second.

I gotta call Owen and tell him

I'm not going to be at
the firehouse tomorrow either.

Wait, why?

Well, you just heard
the nurse, right?

I-I wanna be here for the test.

Dad, it's not like
they do the test

and then give you the results.

They have to interpret them.

Please, please
don't miss another shift.

MARLENE:
You know, I'll be here.

I'll call you as soon
as we know anything.

(groaning sigh)

Y'all sure?

WYATT HARRIS:
Seriously, Dad,

I'm just gonna sleep

and try not to go insane
that I have an itchy ankle.

So you have an itch?

Definitely. Yeah.

Both of them.
Since this morning.

LEIGH ANN:
Wait, really? You feel them?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.
They're driving me crazy.

Oh, baby, that is amazing.

I think that's about
as good a sign

as we could hope for.

Truly. That's...

My boy's got itchy feet.

-(group chuckles)
-WYATT: Hmm.

Where?

(laughter)

(knock on door)

-Dad.
-Is this a bad time?

No, we were
just expecting some friends.

Oh, I can come back
another time.

No. Dad, come on.

-GABRIEL REYES: Yeah?
-Yes.

-Hi.
-Hey.

-How are you?
-How you doing, TK?

Can I get you
something to drink?

Uh, just water, please.

I'm meeting Andrea
at Ditallio's in 20 minutes.

-TK STRAND: Ooh, okay.
-Which is why I was
in the neighborhood.

What's going on?
Come on, sit down.

So, uh... (sighs)

The name Reyes came up in
the Ranger daily briefing today.

But not my name. Yours.

Everyone I work with
is talking about

how my son took down
an organ trafficking ring.

Not single-handedly.

I hope you made that clear.

Why would I wanna do that?
(chuckles)

I can crow about my son
if I want, right?

Yeah, you can.

GABRIEL:
It's not the first time

you've given me reason
to be proud.

In fact,
Assistant Chief Bridges

is wondering why you're
still working patrol.

He thinks APD
is squandering your talents.

Oh, it's not the APD's fault.

I mean, Sarina Washington

has been on him
to take the detective exam.

I already told
Detective Washington

and my eager fiancé here

that I don't think
it's the right move for me.

You know what? I agree.

-You do?
-I do.

I mean,
APD is a fine organization.

But why would you wanna
take the detective's exam

when you could become
a Texas Ranger?

Wow.

Babe?

Uh...

Uh, that would be
an incredible honor.

But I-I could get transferred
to Amarillo or Brownsville.

-Our lives are here.
-No, you wouldn't be.

You'd be working right here,
right next to your old man.

I don't know.

This feels like nepotism.

It's not nepotism.
It's legacy.

Just like TK followed Owen
into the fire services.

But if it makes you
feel any better,

this offer isn't coming from me.

It's coming directly
from Assistant Chief Bridges.

I'm just here to extend it.

I'm sorry, but I can't.

Look, uh... I know
it's a lot of pressure,

but you've got
the chops for it.

Don't be afraid
of success, son.

It's not success
that bothers me.

I... just don't think
that the Rangers are for me.

Can-can we just
leave it at that?

What do you mean
not for you?
Something bothering you?

Well, their motto for one.

"One Riot, One Ranger."

Well, that's just
hyperbole, son.
It's bluster.

The Porvenir massacre.

Was that bluster?

Well, what's
the Porvenir massacre?

The Rangers gunned down
15 unarmed Tejano men and boys

as part of their mission
to secure Texas territories,

specifically from groups of
Mexican and indigenous descent.

That was 1918.

Yeah, but that still remains
their mission to this day.

And there are
plenty more examples

of them victimizing,
terrorizing innocent people

that look exactly like us.

It sounds like you're
calling me a Tío Tomás.

No, I didn't say that, Dad.

I do understand the desire
to be accepted by people

who have
historically rejected you.

I see.

And can I ask how long
you've felt this way?

The legacy
of the Texas Ranger

isn't exactly a secret, Dad.

No.

I mean, how long have
you been ashamed of me?

-MARJAN MARWANI: Hey, hey, hey!
-(Paul laughing)

Party, party!

-MARJAN: Hey.
-NANCY GILLIAN: Hey.

I hope you
two pretty boys are ready

to go down tonight
because I'm feeling

particularly ruthless today.

PAUL STRICKLAND:
Yeah, she is not kidding.

Should have seen
the way she slipped

into my parking spot earlier.

Hey, what's up, Major Reyes?

You here for game night?

No, I was just leaving.
You folks have fun tonight.

(somber music playing)

(theme music plays)

MARJAN:
Hey, bud. How you doing?

I'm alright. Hey...

sorry we had to cancel
the group hang like that.

-Aw man, no worries.
-Looks like we walked in on

some pretty serious
family drama.

Well, the rift between Carlos
and his dad isn't new.

It just sucks that
it opened up right before
the wedding, you know?

So, what's your plan?

-The plan for what?
-To heal the rift!

Who's riftin'?

Carlos and his dad.

Well, they could always
settle it the Ryder way.

Oh yeah? And what's
the Ryder method?

Well, anytime me and
my brothers were fightin',

my dad would just kind of
shove us all into the closet

and if we didn't
come out friends,
we didn't come out.

Well that sounds like a case
for Child Protective Services!

Yeah, and I think forcing Carlos
into a closet

is what started
all this in the first place.

-(all laughing)
-So, forget the closet.

Why don't you just get them
to sit down with each other?

I don't think a sit-down
is gonna fix this, Nance.

Why not? They settled
two World Wars that way.

Yeah, well, that
and an atomic bomb.

-(all laughing)
-NANCY: Okay.

You know what
I think they need?

-TK: Hm?
-A good go-between.

I'm not tryin'
to get in between that.

But maybe I'm not
the one that has to.

Mateo, you're a genius,
thank you!

HOLLY: Peek-a-boo!

A-peek-a-boo.

(Holly laughs)

I see you.

Peek-a-boo!

A-peek-a-boo.

I see you. Yes, I do.

-(lever clicks)
-Oh. All done.

Hey. Uh, sorry, ma'am.
I-I didn't mean to scare you.

It's just that I ran outta gas,

and I just, and I realized
I forgot my wallet.

-Oh, I'm sorry.
-VINCE: Yeah.

And my son's home alone,

so anything you can spare,
it would really help.

Sure.
I-I think I've got a 20.

Oh, well, cool.
Well, God bless you.

-I'll take the keys as well.
-Wait, wait.

Come on, give me the keys!

(Holly grunts)

(Piper crying)

Wait! Wait! Wait!

My daughter's in there!

Piper! Piper!

Wait! Help!

-(tires screech)
-(horn blares)

Piper!

Somebody kidnaped your child?

Yes, he carjacked me
at knife-point.

My daughter was still in
the backseat when he drove off.

Okay, take a deep breath for me.
My name is Grace.

Can you tell me where you were
when your car was stolen?

HOLLY: At the Gas N' Sip
off Fifth and Pine.

And the make and model
of your vehicle?

HOLLY:
A red Corolla, 2010.

Can you describe
your daughter for me?

She's 13 months old.
She has dirty blonde hair.

(sniffles)
And her name is Piper.

All units, be advised.
20-04 in progress.

A 2010 red Toyota Corolla

southbound on the 400 block
of Brodie Avenue.

Please be advised the suspect
is armed with a knife

and has a toddler
in the backseat.

(horn blaring)

(Piper crying)

TY O'BRIEN:
Dispatch, 3-3-1-M-40.

I have the suspect moving up
on Brodie and Crockett.

GRACE RYDER (over radio):
Copy you. 3-3-1-M-40.

I'm sending more units
your way now.

-(Piper crying)
-(sirens wailing)

-Shut up! Shut up!
-(crying continues)

He's weaving all over the place.
Driver seems to be impaired.

You're not thinking about laying
down spike strips, are you?

Not with a baby on board,
I'm not.

He could lose control
of the vehicle.

Which also rules out
a pit maneuver.

O'BRIEN: We're just gonna
let it run its course.

If we stop him,
we could make things worse.

Well, we won't
be able to stop him,

but maybe we can slow him down?

-(sirens wailing)
-(horn blaring)

126 in position.

Okay, copy you, 126.
APD, you ready?

Locked and loaded.
Here we go.

126, it's your time to shine.

-(crying)
-(siren wailing)

(honks horn)

Get outta the way!

-(tires screeching)
-(crying continues)

Box him in! Box him in!

(siren wailing)

Alright, Ryan, slow it down.
Nice and easy.

-Come on, come on.
-(sirens wailing)

Come on, come on!

Easy.

Oh, son of a bitch.

Let's follow him in this turn.

Alright, slow it down.

Grab your gear, let's go.

Alright, just put her

a pulse either, Cap.

Alright, starting compressions.

Come on.

Dispatch, do we have
a name for this baby?

GRACE (over radio):
Piper. Her name is Piper.

Piper?

Hey, Piper. Come on.

O'BRIEN: Come on.

Come on, baby.
Let's see those pretty eyes.

Okay, Piper.

Sweetheart, listen to me.
Come on.

Your mama wants to see you.

(screams, cries)

TOMMY:
That's it. That's it!

-(crying)
-Dispatch...

Piper's fine.

Let her mama know.
Piper's gonna be just fine.

There you go.

I don't have to, Captain,
'cause you just did.

(gasps) Thank you.

Thank all of you.
(sniffles)

(crying)

Hey, babe, I'm at the park,

but I don't see you,
so just call me back.

Mom?

What are you doing here?

Same as you.

Fresh air and some tacos.

TK put you up to this,
didn't he?

A mother needs to be put up

to having lunch
with her only son?

(chuckles)
Por favor. Siéntate.

I got you an al pastor
y una arrachera.

Mm. My favorites.

Okay, so let's hear it.

I understand that you
and your father

had a little disagreement
over the Texas Rangers.

No, there's no disagreement.

It was just
a matter of factual record.

They have a history of
utilizing violence against us,

Latine and indigenous peoples.

They fought efforts

to desegregate schools
in the '50s--

And they also have a history

of kicking the crap
out of the KKK,

shutting down Jim Crow,
and stopping human traffickers.

Not to mention,
they got Bonnie and Clyde.

Hmm. Another case of overkill.

Do they have blood
on their hands, mijo?
Yes.

But what organization
that's 200 years old doesn't?

That's not an excuse, Mom.

Let me tell you
a little something

about this man
you think you know.

When your father started off
with the Rangers,

there were 96 sworn officers.

Do you know how many of them
were people of color?

Two. And that's
including your father.

Yeah. I think you're
making my point for me.

You know, mijo,

did you know
that when your father

got promoted to Captain,

he began
spearheading a campaign
to recruit and train

talented people of all
backgrounds and genders?

-No.
-Well, he did.

And you know what percent
of the Rangers

are of color or women today?

Five?

Almost 30.

More than a tenfold increase
under his watch.

-Hmm?
-Wow. I didn't know that.

When was the last time
you heard your father

boasting about anything
other than the Astros bullpen?

Right.

He doesn't brag about it
because...

he thinks that there's
still plenty of work

that needs to be done.

But your father
is a good and honest man.

And he deserves your respect.

I do respect him.

But are you proud of him?

Of course I am.
He knows I am.

Does he?
Because I'm not so sure.

Well, I spent my whole life
not knowing

if he was proud of me.

So I guess that's only fair.

You know what I think, mijo?

I think this
tension between you

is about more than
just the Texas Rangers.

You're entitled to feel
whatever you're feeling,

but whatever it is,

you need to let it out.

Because the one thing
our family has learned
the hard way...

silence only
makes things worse.

JUDD:
Well, I mean, look,
Marlene, I-I...

I appreciate you telling me
as soon as you found out,

and, uh, tell Wyatt

that I'll-I'll be there
as soon as my shift's over.

Okay. Buh-bye.

-Hey, Juddy.
-Hey, T.

Any news on Wyatt?

Actually, the doctor's report
just came in and, uh...

(sighs) ...they just
finished his, uh...

the nerve conduction study.
And the electro... the...

Electromyography.

-Yeah. Yeah.
-Yeah, yeah. And?

It... (sighs)

-(sighs)
-Talk to me.

(sighs deeply)

They say his arms,
his hands are good, you know?

But his legs have a...

a decreased conduction velocity
or something.

I see.

And the doctors just,
just said that they, you know,

they think that that means
that there's a 99% chance

that he won't ever walk again.

(sighs)

Hey.

Ninety-nine ain't a hundred.

Okay?
And you never know.
Nerves can regenerate.

-That's what they said, too.
-TOMMY: Mm-hmm.

Right. And-and the, uh,
the conduction in his hands

is better, though, right?

Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

No, he can make
a fist and, uh...

He can almost
pick up his own fork.

There you go.
Alright, that's good.

(exhales sharply)

-TOMMY: That's good.
-Tommy, honey...

(sighs)

I don't know how
we got to a world where

my boy being able
to pick up a fork

is a good thing, you know?

It means that he can
take care of himself.

And he can hold his baby.

(voice breaking)
Yeah, I know.

But he's supposed to be
doing other things.

He's supposed
to be swinging an ax.

He's supposed to be
running a line

and putting out a fire
and saving people.

He wanted to do that.

I know.

I know, Judd.

How's Wyatt taking it?

He don't know.

He doesn't know?

The doctor came in there
and he was asleep.

And, uh, Marlene has
medical power of attorney.

So the doctor went over
all the results with her.

She called me and, uh...

We agreed we're gonna
tell him together, you know?

So I got that
to look forward to.

TOMMY:
Honey. I know. Okay.

Is there anything,
anything I can do?

You're already doin' it.
I just...

I don't know
what I'm gonna do.

I don't know how I'm gonna
break that... news to him.

And, uh...

I don't know about
after that either.

Uh, yeah. Yeah.
Y'all got a long road ahead.

Yeah, that's for sure.

Just remember, miracles happen.

I guess.

We've both seen 'em.

Seen the other way a lot
more often, though, ain't we?

You know?

(Judd clears throat)

(inhales and exhales)

(monitor beeping)

(door opens)

-Hey.
-Hey, Judd.

-Hey, Dad.
-Leigh Ann here?

WYATT: Uh, no, no.

She has finals coming up,

so I sent her home to study.

Well, that was
considerate of you.

Aah!

-He's making progress.
-(Wyatt chuckles)

He's doin' real good.

Uh, oh, I got you this...

Oh, thank you so much.

Uh, what is it?

It's just, um, it's just
a little scratcher.

That way if it
feels like there's

ants going across your foot,

you can give it a scratch.

WYATT:
Yeah, I appreciate it.

Thank you.

Oh, Dad, before you ask,

no, they still haven't brought
by my test results, which, um...

-Yeah.
-WYATT: Super annoying, but...

What?

Um, actually, sweetheart,

they did bring your test results
while you were sleeping.

Why-why didn't you tell me?

'Cause your mom and I wanted
to tell you together.

Why?

Oh.

So it's bad?

MARLENE: Um...

How bad is it?

-MARLENE: Uh...
-They...

Wh-what they,
what they're saying

is that the nerve conduction

in your legs
ain't what it should be.

Meaning?

They don't expect you
to gain function
of 'em anytime soon.

Or at all?

(Marlene sighs)

But-but, no, my, uh, my feet.

Remember, they were,
they were itching earlier?

How could I feel them
if they were itching,
you know?

Well, the doctor said
that they can still be itchy.

You know, it's like, um,
phantom limb pain.

Or it could be that
the neural pathways are still...

still firing.

But they don't think
I'll ever walk again.

I don't give a damn
what they think.

Okay, so...
what am I looking at?

What do you mean?

I mean, like,
what-what, what happens next?

They're gonna transfer you
to another facility

where you're gonna
start working on

physical and occupational
therapy every day.

What is that?
Occupational therapy?

Well, it's where they...

it's where they teach you
how to get control

of your arms and your,
and your hands again.

And...

You know, how to, how to...
(sniffles)

how to brush your teeth, how to,

how to comb your hair.

You know, how to,
how to live your life.

Well, I'm never,
I'm never even gonna see

outside of a hospital
again, am I?

Yeah, you are, too.

-It's gonna be two mon...
-Yes.

They said three months
at the most.

Three months?

Either way, you're gonna be done

by the time Leigh Ann
has the baby.

No, I don't think
I can do it, Mom.

-Yes, you can.
-Okay, okay.

-I can't do it, no.
-Hey.

WYATT:
I wanna go home, please.

Please, I just wanna
go home, okay?

Please. Can we go home?

MARLENE:
Wyatt, look at me.

-You got this, baby.
-WYATT: Mom, I can't do it.

I can't.

GRACE: Hey, babe.

Hey.

(sighs) Charlie, go down okay?

Uh, she did.

It took a few encore readings

of This is Not My Hat.

But she did
eventually go down, yes.

What you doing?

I'm just,
I'm going over these...

places that they wanna
send Wyatt to

after he gets discharged.

Uh-huh.

It's called a SNIF.

A Skilled Nursing Facility.

That don't exactly have
a pleasant ring to it, do it?

Um, it's not
the most inviting, no.

Well, it-it actually,
it looks worse than it sounds.

I looked it up. It's just
a big concrete block off 79.

Right?
He'd have a roommate.

He'd have to share a TV
with somebody.

He'd have one window
and he'd be looking out
at a parking lot.

We knew this wasn't
gonna be easy.

Grace, I think that place
would break him.

I'm not sure there's much
we can do about it, honestly.

I mean, there is.

Like, he could come here.

In the house?

-Look, Grace.
Grace, Grace. Hang on.
-Wait--

There ain't no reason
that we can't set up his bed

in the living room, right?

And then we do
all his therapy here.

Sweetheart.

Okay, but where
would the nurses stay?

Because Wyatt would need
around-the-clock care.

Exactly.
For his occupational,
uh, therapy and his PT.

-I mean--
-It's not just that, sweetheart.

Wyatt needs professionals

to come in and change
his catheters, to bathe him.

Turn him over so that
he doesn't get bedsores.
All of that stuff.

Are those things
that you would be ready for?

Maybe not.

But I will be.

And in the meantime,
the nurses,

they can come and go
as they please.

They can give him
any care that he needs.

Who will be here
to let them in the house?

Me. I'll do it.

Judd, you're gonna
quit your job?

Babe...

for 17 years,
I wasn't there for that boy.

And I have a chance
to make that right.

And I ain't gonna miss it.

Okay.

Alright, you won't.

I love you.

Okay.

Okay.

(knock on door)

-GABRIEL: Hey, Carlitos.
-Hey.

You-you have a minute?

Sure. Come on in.

(soft music playing on radio)

Were you doing puzzles?

Yeah.

Why, is that strange?

I didn't know you did puzzles.

Your mom and I got into them
during the pandemic and...

Well, it helps me
take my mind off work.

Um...

You want something to drink?
Beer, green tea?

-Green tea?
-GABRIEL: What?

Since when do you
drink green tea?

A couple years now.

They say it's good
for blood pressure

and general wellness.

General wellness?

Who the hell are you right now?

(chuckles)

-Hey, Dad.
-Huh?

I didn't like how
we left things the other day.

Yeah.

Neither do I.

I just want you to know
that I'm sorry.

You don't have to
say you're sorry.

If the Rangers is not for you,
then it's not for you.

I'm not sorry about what I said

but the way I said it.

You never have
to apologize to me
for telling the truth.

And the truth is...

I didn't exactly give you
a laundry list of things

to be proud of
when you were growing up.

And that's something
I'm gonna regret
to my dying day.

No. That wasn't the truth.

I'm proud of you, Dad.

And I'm proud to be your son.

Carlitos, you don't have
to say all that.

I'm not just saying all that.

You're the best man I know.

And that's why I would
like you to be my best man.

Best man?

Your... For your wedding?

-Me?
-If you'd be willing.

If I'd be willing?

You couldn't...

It would be the greatest honor
of my life.

Ah.

Thank you. Thank you.

I love you, Dad.

I love you, too.

You know what?
Screw the green tea.

We're drinking tequila.
Come on, let's celebrate.

JUDD: Hello, hello.

Oh, in here.

This was on your tailgate.

My milk. Thank you.

You do a little shopping?

Yeah. Robert and his family
are flying in for the wedding

and I figured I'd stock up,

but I wanted to do it while
Mateo's out of the house.

He's staying with Nancy
while the family's here.

That'll be good for you.

Oh no, I love Mateo.

No, no, no. I mean...

you'll get to spend
some time with,
uh, your new family.

My new old family.

Yeah.

New old family.

I think that's what
I'm here about, too, Cap.

My new old family.

Uh...

Cap, I have to quit.

You have to quit what?

My job.

What are you talkin' about?

We're bringing Wyatt home
to live with us.

And, uh...

I made the decision

I'm gonna, I'm gonna
be his caretaker full-time.

I think you mean caregiver.

Yeah. Oh, yeah,
'cause he ain't a ranch.

I know. Gracie keeps
fixing me on that, too, but...

Okay, but given
Wyatt's condition,

isn't he gonna need

a very specific type
of caregiving?

Well, yeah, he-he's going to.
He's going to have all that.

He's gonna have
all the nurses

and the therapists
that he needs.

But then I'll be his
day-to-day, you know?

And he won't be with
a bunch of strangers, right?

He-he'll have his dad.

I don't know what to say.

I don't either.

Actually, I do.
Don't quit. Don't do it.

Call it a temporary
leave of absence.

Uh, if you file
for early retirement,

you're only gonna get 40%
of what you have coming to you.

I understand that.

But if I put in right now,

they'll give me
a big chunk of it up front

from all that sick time
and vacation

I racked up over the years.

You know, over 20 years.

And, uh...

we got some expenses now.

It's...

It's-it's-it's not cheap
to turn your front parlor

into a rehabilitation center.

Well, you've really
thought about this.

Man, I-I don't know
if I thought about it long,

but I do reckon
I've made my decision.

Damn it, Judd.

-I wanna thank you--
-ROBERT STRAND: Owen.

In here.

(Judd clears throat)

-Hey.
-Hey.

Oh. Hey, Sydney.

-It's good to see you again.
-Hey, Owen.

-Thanks for having us.
-OWEN STRAND: Thank you.

Judd, this is my brother Robert
and, uh, his wife Sydney.

And his girls,
Yvonne and Hannah.

And, everybody,
this is Judd Ryder, he's...

my best friend.

So y'all girls came
all the way out here
for your cousin's wedding?

Yeah, for the wedding
of our cousin who we've
only met over FaceTime.

Well, he's gonna appreciate
you comin' all that way,
I bet you.

So... I'll tell you what.

I'm gonna
get outta y'all's hair.

-Very nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

Yeah. Well, you, too.

And, uh...

We'll see ya.
Ladies.

(clinking)

Everybody,
if you'll indulge me,

I just wanna say a few things.

TK: Uh-oh.

Dad, how drunk are you?

-(laughter)
-I am not drunk.

I am just naturally
ruddy-cheeked.

(laughter)

So as I look around this table,

it is impossible for me
to state my gratitude.

It was almost four years ago
that I dragged my son,

if not kicking, then certainly
a little bit screaming,

from New York to Texas.

I had just accepted a job
rebuilding a fire station

that had suffered...

unbelievable loss and grief.

It was a good cause
and a noble one,

but not at all why we came.

I was desperate
to save my son's life...

and maybe my own.

I-I believe in AA.

It's what you call doing
a, a geographic,

moving away from the danger,

which is not usually
a Strand's first instinct.

(laughter)

TK...

I couldn't save you
in New York.

And the truth is,
I couldn't save you
here either.

You had to do it.

And you have.

I could not be
more proud of you, Son.

Carlos...

when I see you and TK
together,

I realize that coming
to Austin isn't...

the roll of the dice
that I thought.

It was meant to be.

And, uh,
if TK's mother were here,

I'm sure that she would
be able to say this all

in a much better way
than-than I have.

She's here, Owen.

And you said it pretty well.

To TK and Carlos.

And the Strand-Reyes clan.

-Reyes-Strand.
-(Andrea laughs)

(glasses clinking,
group cheering)

Only one each, kids.

Solamente uno.

You heard your daughter.
One.

They have tres leches
and galletas,

how can I just pick one?

Ma, it's a celebration.

Cut him some slack.

Yeah, well, you tell him that
when he tries to squeeze

into his tux later.

He already has too much slack.

-Do we really have
to do that tonight?
-ANDREA REYES: Yes.

And then you're gonna
get started on your speech.

Ay, por favor, the wedding
isn't until this weekend.

You are gonna give
a best man speech
after Owen Strand.

Did you not hear
that man's toast?

-Por favor.
-I mean, he was alright.

Hey, brother,
that glass looks a little low.

Oh, well,
then help a brother out.

Here you go.

How great is this, huh?

Family, all together like this.

Oh, it's-it's magic
is what it is.

Stop staring, Owen.

Have you told 'em?

(sighs)

Yeah, we told 'em last week.

I mean, it's not like
I was gonna be able

to keep this a secret
much longer anyway.

How did they take it?

At first, they were
just devastated.

And it turned out that they were

stronger than I could
have ever imagined.

How so?

Syd maybe turned into
a little bit of a Nurse Ratched.

You know,
she's always making sure

I take my pills and...

And Hannah offered
to quit her Summer Stock

so she could be around more.

Yvonne is waking up
early every morning

to make me breakfast.

That's so great.

No, the gesture sure is,

but, uh, the food, not so much.

I mean, it's-it's mostly

this-this porridge
and cream of wheat.

It's just stuff
that's easy to swallow.

Is, is it becoming hard
for you to swallow?

Every damn thing about this
is becoming hard to swallow.

But... yes.

This disease is a hungry beast.

But that is not
what tonight is about.

-Tonight is about...
-This.

(monitor beeping)

Hello.

-Back again?
-Yeah.

I just didn't want him to have
to spend the night alone, so...

That's very sweet.

You want me to see
if I can find you a cot?

No. No, that's alright.

I... (clears throat)

Are you sure?

You're gonna kill your back
in that chair.

No, I'm a f--

My back's strong enough.

Well, if you change
your mind, let me know.

Good night.

CARLOS:
Mom? Mom? Mom!

(solemn music playing)

RANGER BRIDGES:
O God, whose end is justice,

whose strength
is all our stay,

be near
and bless my mission...

as I go forth today.

Let wisdom
guide my actions...

let courage fill my heart.

And help me, O Lord,
in every hour...

to do a Ranger's part.

Protect when danger threatens...

sustain when trails get tough.

Help me hold my standard high

and smile at each rebuff.

And when night
comes down upon me,

I pray the Lord be nigh.

Whenever on a lonely scout...

or camped under the Texas sky.

Keep me, O God, in line...

and when my day shall end...

forgive my sins
and take me in.

For your sake. Amen.

("Taps" playing)

-GUARD OFFICER: Ready.
-(rifles cock)

Aim. Fire.

Ready.

Aim.

Fire.

("Taps" continues)

On behalf of the state of Texas,

the governor,

and all the Texas Rangers,

I present this flag to you
in honor of your husband.

(sobbing)

("Taps" continues)

(indistinct chatter)

Man, this is not
the type of gathering

I was expecting to meet
Carlos' family at.

No.

ANDREA: Owen.

It was a beautiful service, no?

It certainly was.

Yeah.

I wanna introduce you
to Tommy Vega.

This is TK's captain.
Miss Andrea Reyes.

Captain Vega.

I've heard so much about you.

The boys adore you.

Bueno.

Te ofrezco mi profundo pésame.

Es evidente que su esposo
era un hombre muy querido.

Sí. Gracias.

-TOMMY: Mm-hmm.
-Es verdad.

And thank you for coming.

Of course.

And, Owen,
thank you for hosting.

I'm happy to do it.

Our house...

I just couldn't get it ready.

I kept trying to scrub
the blood off the entryway.

It had soaked
into the wood floors.

(voice breaking)
They'll need to be replaced.

Me permites?

(sobs)

(Andrea sniffles)

He's gonna be watching over you
and your family.

God bless you. And thank you.

Remember, he'd pull us
out of school

and tell the office
it was an urgent family matter?

WOMAN: Yes. Sometimes
he'd even flash his badge

and then take us out
for ice cream or to the movies.

Or the puppet shows
when we were sick.

Puppet shows?

WOMAN:
Not a puppet show exactly.

He'd use our stuffed animals.

You never told me that.

Because I have
no memory of it.

You were so little, Carlitos,

but he was always
so sweet with you.

BRIDGES:
Oh. (clears throat)

Oh, I'm sorry
to interrupt you all,

but, uh, Carlos,
can I get a word with you?

Of course.

I just wanted to tell you
how sorry I am about your daddy

and... tell you
how grateful I am

to have been able to work
beside him all these years.

Thank you, sir.

And thank you
for your powerful words

at the funeral today.

Hey, I, uh...

I want to
give you something

I believe belongs to you.

His Ranger star.

I appreciate you
letting me have this.

I do hope you know
how proud he was of you.

-I think so.
-BRIDGES: Don't ever doubt it.

Not even for one minute.

CARLOS:
I need to ask you.

Have the Rangers...

made any progress
in figuring out who did this?

Carlos, you know

I can't discuss
an ongoing investigation.

I don't need any names,
just...

Is there one?

Carlos, your daddy
spent a lifetime

tangling with some
of the worst bad guys

the state of Texas has to offer.

He was fearless.

Along the way,
he made some enemies.

But I can promise you this.

I will not enjoy
a night's rest till we find

that son of a bitch
that did this to your daddy

and to our brother.

So what you're really telling me
is you have no idea

who murdered my father?

Carlos, look, I wish I had
better news for you.

I-I really do.

But right now,
you need to look after yourself,

and you need
to look after your mama.

And again,
my condolences.
