- Last season on Walker...
- Years ago,

there was this serial killer.

W-We called him "the Jackal."

Larry and I chased it.

But a man just died.

Seems like the Jackal
may have finally got him.

I now pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

You know
what that case did to me.

You know what that case did
to me and Kelly.

There is no way.

I can't go back there.

You're telling me the FBI

is trying to poach
my two best Rangers?

That's what you're telling me?

Relax, Cap. It's not poaching.

It's an eight-week operation.

I think I'm gonna go for it.

But between you and me,

it might be
for more than just a summer.

What do you think
about staying here?

You serious?

I know him. He's cool.
Hey, Witt!

Um, this is Stella.

Stel, meet Witt.

Oh, my God.

Where's the body?

Looks like I didn't
quite make it out the door.

There's still time.

I don't want
to make it out the door.

Well, that's
a different problem...

entirely.

But you can't be late
when you're leaving early.

So you're saying we have a whole
weekend ahead of us for this?

- Might be selective hearing, but... yeah.
- Mm.

- Oh. Oh.
- Make a wish,

- birthday boy.
- No.

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- Come on.

C-Carbs are not on the menu
today.

- I got to save space.
- Really?

Yes. For the Grand Lonestar's
steak-eating competition?

That's a full 24 hours away.

It's all about the prep.
Mental and physical.

But... thank you.

Okay.

Still can't believe
you're into this.

What could be more romantic
than watching my boyfriend

go toe-to-toe
with an 80-ounce steak?

I would imagine

- all the things.
- You're right.

All the things.

But...

you have been talking
about this contest

since we were, what, 16?

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Yeah. So...

I'm glad we get
to cross it off the list.

Even if it does mean
an eight-hour drive.

- Yeah. Hey.
- Hey.

You are still late.

Yep. Yep. Okay.

Uh, I am.

Let me, uh...

get this.

And, uh...

All right.

- See you tonight. Can't be late.
- Okay.

Uh, got to be on the road
by 5:00.

And don't be l...

Keep dodging those carbs, babe.

Okay, I'm just saying, this is
a prime-time fall weekend.

For another Scooter party?

Lake house party.

Senior year. Seriously, Ben,

- back me up here, man.
- No, you're not

- pulling me into this one again.
- See now there's some

good thinking right there.
- Traitor.

Oh, God forbid
you should spend the weekend

on a party bus eating steak
and mashed potatoes.

Whatever will you do?

You know? Now hush up.

It's your father's birthday,
and Geri wants to surprise him

with all of us being there

- at Grand Lonestar.
- And for those of age,

I have whipped up
a birthday bottle

of limoncello.

Really? Another one?

You kept at it.

Lucky us.

Oh!

Look at you!

I haven't seen you wear

- that purple tie since...
- The campaign commercial?

That's right. You ran for D.A.

- Mm-hmm.
- Is it ever weird thinking about

how hundreds of thousands
of people voted for you once?

Only when I think about it.
Which is not this morning.

- Yes.
- Right. So,

what did Detective Parra say
on the phone?

Uh, new development
in the break-in at Geri's.

Wants to see Stella and me
in person.

That's it.

- Maybe this is the end?
- Don't know, it's an ongoing investigation

with nothing to report
and then... this.

I mean, it could be the end
or it could be a new lead.

Let's just hope for
Stella's sake it's the former.

- All right. Thank you.
- Yeah. 'Course.

Will you help her get out
of that cocoon?

Yeah, I...

And the bus leaves at 5:00.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

5:00!

Stella. Come on. Let's go.

- Hurry up.
- Oh. Crap.

- You ready?
- Crap, crap, crap.

Come on.

Crap. I thought we were meeting
at the police station.

Well, we were. But you
never answered your texts.

Another late night?

When isn't it?
It's freshman year, right?

Let me give you a hand
with some of this stuff.

You know, we missed you
at the rescue this weekend.

Everybody's been asking
about you. But don't worry...

I've been blocking and tackling.

You don't need to cover for me.
I just needed...

I need a little bit of space.

But I'm doing a lot better.

Yeah, yeah, of course.
It's just, you know...

It's your dad's birthday
this weekend and

it might be nice
to be around some family.

I'll be there.

How's he doing with his birthday
this year anyway?

You know, I haven't seen him yet,
but I'm sure that he's great.

Come on.

Guys, I'm starting to think
this may have been a bad idea.

You're the one that jumped in
the back of the truck, Walker.

- Yeah.
- They were getting away. Again.

And, besides, it was Trey's move

with the horses
that gave me the idea.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Time out.

Now you're throwing
me under the bus?

- Well...
- That was my first case.

Just saying,
I think we can all agree

there's enough blame
to go around.

But, hey, there's
some good news here, right?

Really? We're trapped
inside with limited oxygen,

and we're sitting ducks
whenever the thieves realize

- that we're in here.
- He's making some good points right now.

Sure, sure.
But this guy has been slipping

through our fingers
for weeks now.

This is his fourth bank.

Can't exactly do that again now,
can he?

We got that going for us.

Walker?

Give me a sec.

Haven't gotten
to this part of the plan yet.

You know what? Yeah, yeah.

Stay back. Um...

I got this.

Oh, boy.

Walker, Texas Ranger.

You're under arrest.

- Yep, yep.
- Okay.

Yeah, yeah, you sure about that?

Oh, come on, Cap.
Absolutely none of that

was about trying
to leave work early.

- Yeah, but it didn't hurt.
- Didn't hurt.

- Oh. Well, I can't argue with that.
- Closed case.

- You can't argue that.
- Not at all.

Yeah, but now he's just got
to figure out

how to best
80 ounces, medium rare.

Mm-hmm. And the lettuce wedge,

the creamed spinach,
the mashed potatoes,

- the rolls.
Mmm, mmm. I don't know, Cap.

I don't think he has it in him.

Please.
I got it all figured out.

Listen, at the opportune moment,

I'm gonna fire up
the mid-steak bourbon,

open up some space on the sides.

You know? Then, boom,

picture on the wall.

Commemorative T-shirt
come Monday.

- You'll see.
- Hey. I've been loving

the double dates of late,
but thank you

for leaving me and Kelly out
of this one,

because I can't do
the meat sweats.

I just... I can't do it.

Fair enough.
Hey, speaking of which,

uh... Trey?

So, when are we gonna start
making reservations for six?

Yeah. How's it going with, uh...

Who is it now? Laur-Lauryn?

- Lauryn.
- Lauryn. Yes. Lauryn.

And I'm not too sure we're at
the "meet the friends" stage yet.

You said the same thing
about Tara.

Cap, I'm-I'm starting
to think it's about us.

Yeah, try taking a hint.
And it's "Tar-uh."

- Thought it was "Tyra."
- "Tar-uh."

- Would you look at these three?
Cassie.

- Hey!
- Hey!

- Hey there.
- What-what are you doing?

I didn't know
you were back in town! You...

you-you didn't call or anything.

- I know.
- Yeah.

- It's been months.
- Yeah.

Yeah. Uh, I'm sorry about that.

And I wish I could say
I was here for the birthday.

But I actually need your help.

The FBI task force does.

What do you say
we get the band back together?

Last two weeks in New Orleans.

Before that,

a month in Tallahassee.

Thought we were going down
to the Everglades,

but it turns out
this fentanyl network

stretched across
the entire American Southeast.

I figured five months, one case.

Not exactly short.

But without much more
than a phone call or two?

I had to put in the work.

Days got long.

Well, sounds like you're
fighting the good fight,

taking the opportunity
seriously. Good on you.

I'm actually surprised
at how much I enjoyed it.

Uh, Tessa Graves? Whew.

She is the real deal, man.

Speaking of, uh,
how is my biggest fan?

Sh-She is...
in a hospital in New Orleans.

Just got treated
for a gunshot wound in the OR.

- Whoa.
- That's why I'm here.

So what's up? How can we help?

This fentanyl network,

it's headed by Frank
and Enzo Delmonico,

pair of brothers
born two generations too late

for the Italian crime family
they wish they were a part of.

Yeah, yeah.
I've heard about these guys.

- They're making a push into Texas.
- Yep.

This is as far west
as their operation goes,

with their newest
and largest distribution hub

here in Austin.

But the good news is,
over the last five months,

we've already dismantled
the rest of their network...

Miami, Atlanta, Baton Rouge.

And now you think the Delmonicos
are headed to Austin.

I know they are.
I have a surveillance team

posted outside
their warehouse right now.

Okay. So what's the play?

Delmonico brothers will be here
sometime in the next 24 hours,

likely securing the last
of their product before Mexico.

They move on the product,
we move on them.

Exactly. Now, this is

a "stay by your phones" kind
of op.

Can I count on you guys?

- Of course.
- Definitely.

Always.

- Sorry! I'm so sorry!
- Oh!

The order was not ready.

- Oh, those are wonderful!
- How are we doing here?

Well, I'm still waiting
for confirmation from Stella,

but, other than that, good.

So, was he suspicious
this morning?

Uh, mind was elsewhere.

I think we're gonna
blindside him.

- Yes.
- Oh. That...

Speak of the devil. Hello?

Yeah, no, I'm-I'm sorry,

I just, I just, I can't
go out of town right now.

Not with this new case
from Cassie.

I... I-It just, uh...

I know, I'm-I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't mean to ruin
our best-laid plans.

All right. Yeah, of course.
All right.

Bye, babe.

Everything okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just had to cancel on Geri.

Um, I'm-I'm thrilled

that Cassie's here, obviously,
but the timing...

That massive steak was
so close to being mine.

I hear that,
but more importantly,

look at this.

It's from Detective Luna.

Says he has a crime scene
down in Hayward.

Some motel where he thinks
the Jackal spent

a few nights at.

Uh...

We got to... Uh... Come on.

Okay. No, uh...

No body drops
since Hollis Miller.

No known location
in five months.

- The trail went almost completely cold.
- I know.

- I know. And then now this.
- This.

- Walker, I mean, this...
- This could be something.

I mean, maybe some sort of clue
as to what he's doing next.

- Can you get down there?
- I just need a moment where I can slip out

without James noticing.

Go now. I'll cover.
And, uh, Trey?

Call me the moment
you have anything.

Got it.

Okay, we need a plan B.
He's still free tonight,

- he just can't go out of town.
- Well, you know,

there's got to be
something in this freezer.

Let me take a look.

Uh, let me see here,
we got, uh... yeah, yeah, yeah.

Ooh, yeah.
Look at this, we got a...

No, that's a pork butt. Dang.

- Never mind.
- Okay, listen, why don't we just go out?

I mean, I've heard tell
that there are

- actual steaks in Austin.
- Ah,

that just feels like too much
of a step down, right?

Aw, hell's bells,
cockleshells, he's right.

Well, you know, August,

you want to, uh,
add to the pot here?

Uh, I mean,
you seem to be in the zone,

so I'll just let you guys cook.

This is not happening.
It's not happening.

Hey, Geri, it is not your fault.

I know it's not my fault,
it's just...

Cordi went all out
for my birthday this year.

It was a total surprise.

I'm talking couples massages
in Warm Springs,

overnight in OKC.

He took me to all of the places

that I mentioned
loving as a kid.

- I knew I raised that boy right.
- Yeah, he gets that from his daddy.

Okay. What if we just got,
like, a-a big-ass steak

and just had him eat it here?

Gramps, you know, like, a bunch
of butchers and stuff, right?

Course I know my butchers.
What kind of question is that?

Oh, I like that.
That could be great.

We could get
an 80-ounce steak here.

I see where you're going.

And I can make the sides,
I can make the creamed spinach,

- all of it. - Yes.
- Ooh.

I love that. We could even get
an official countdown clock.

- Ooh.
- Yes.

If we can't get Cordi
to the Grand Lonestar,

we will get the Grand Lonestar
to Cordi.

- Yes.
- Yes, ma'am. Well, I guess I'll go call a man

about a big-ass steak.

Yes.

Great!

- Sorry for the short notice.
- Ah, no, totally understandable.

There was a new development.

I mean, I-I did say that, right?

Well, s-sure, yeah, you did,
you did say that.

Have you been in touch
with Sadie's counsel?

How's she, how's she doing?

She's up to speed.

Listen, I-I know this has been
dragged out, and you've been

very patient, but
the powers that be have, uh...

shifted resources.

W-What does that mean?

County wants to move on.
Bigger fish, bigger fry.

Well, that is quite
the development.

But before your file
can go into that file,

I need your signature
on this file.

It's a final report
of the night of.

Give it a read, let me know
if anything seems off.

"On June 16th,
Sadie Yoo and Stella Walker

"returned
to Geraldine Broussard's home

"and were confronted

"by an armed intruder
in the midst of a robbery.

"There was
a violent altercation,

"and the intruder was injured
from an errant gunshot

produced by
the intruder's firearm."

"At 11:30 p.m., the victims
and William Walker called APD.

"The intruder managed to escape

"the scene of the crime
and was found

"in a smoldering car
two miles away.

"Cause of death, gunshot wound,

"prior to the crash.

"DNA at the scene of the crime,
and at the car,

"matched and identified
the intruder, Mr. Witt McCarthy.

"It was the determination
of the ensuing investigation

that the victims acted
in self-defense."

All good?

- Unless, uh...
- Unless?

Well, you've been away a while,
Ms. Walker.

Anything you'd like to add?

Any reason you can come up with

why the bungalow
was targeted by a stranger?

Do you mind if we take five?

I'm okay.

Really, I'm okay.

Okay.

I have nothing left to add here.

I have played this night over
so many times, and...

I stand by my statement.

I never met him.
I don't know why he broke in.

Okay.

Well, you can both consider
this case closed.

Just sign here.

So, we're hauling ass,
and the helo

is 45 degrees over the water

and there's rotor wash
everywhere.

I'm eyeball-to-eyeball
with Lake Okeechobee,

and two morons just crashing
the boards on Jet Skis.

Shoot. More later.
Good to you see you guys.

- See you.
- Yeah, have a good one.

- Walker?
- Cass.

Hey. I was thinking,

since we're playing the waiting
game on the Delmonicos,

how about I take my old partner
out for a birthday lunch, huh?

- Walker Ranch?
- So, uh, a lunch on me?

- Mm-hmm.
- For the birthday you forgot?

Oh, come on.
You think I'd forget?

After last year?

- What's that?
- It's for you.

- No.
- Mm-hmm.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Come on.
- Ha!

So you didn't forget.

All right.

- Wow.
- Yeah?

Yeah. These are a, uh...

uh, a choice.

A very thoughtful,
awesome choice.

- Thanks, Cass.
- Alligator skin. Florida.

- I had to.
- I love them.

Uh, and...

lunch sounds great.

I know my parents
would love to see you.

- They've missed you.
- Oh. Great.

Actually, I'd love to pick your
mom's brain about a few things.

Yeah? What, new Florida flame?

No, uh, new Florida career.

Wow. So, Graves really is, uh,
swooping in, huh?

This, uh, something permanent?

Quantico?

Quantico. So you'd be re-upping.

Explains the radio silence.

Uh, easier to make
a clean break.

I see.

You see. But what do you think?

Honestly?

I think it's a big opportunity.

Uh, an incredible opportunity.

One that doesn't come around
too often.

Everyone leaves eventually.

So just do me a favor, okay?

Don't be a stranger again.

We all missed you
while you were gone.

- And Trey, uh, especially.
- Yeah, I know.

I owe him a convo.

Yeah.

- Let's go eat.
- Yeah.

- I'll go get my stuff.
- Okay.

So, they're really doing
a Hawk's Shadow reboot?

- Yeah, but it's...
- The...

like, more grounded,
and about his family.

Oh. Well, you think
they're gonna finally explain

the whole Hawk's cave of it all?

- Hawk's cave? Hell yeah.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- I knew you'd make it to season six.

- I've been watching.
- Okay.

Surprise!

Happy birthday, Dad.

Thanks. Uh, thanks.

Guys, come on.

-Okay
-Did we get you?

Yeah. Yeah, I'd say so.

Uh...

- Cheers.
- Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Um.. No, thank you.

But thank you.
I know you did this.

Got to say, Ger,
you outdid yourself.

No, no, no.
It-it was, it was all of us.

Oh! Look what I got here.

In East Texas,

we call these "petite filets."

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

- How many people are competing?
- I didn't think it was fair

to our guests to not
let them get a shot at it, too.

What, you think you're
the only one that eats?

All right. Guess that's true.

- Oh...
- Wow.

What about you, big guy?

You, uh, wake up
feeling dangerous

- about an 80-ounce steak?
- Actually wanted

to come over here
to ask you a question.

- Yeah.
- Just really quick. Um, so, there's this party,

and it's, like,
a, you know, senior year thing.

- Hmm.
- I was wondering maybe if it was cool with you

if I-I dipped a little early?

- Tonight?
- I-I just...

I don't know
how many more nights like this

- I'm gonna have, you know? So...
- Oh, buddy, uh,

w-we don't know
how many more nights like this

we're gonna have, you know?

You did say I should enjoy
my high school years.

Yeah, yeah. Well played.

Uh, you're right, you're right.

I did say that.

And I meant it.

I mean, obviously, Dad, if it's
important to you, I can stay...

No, no, no. Go, go. Be safe.

And if you need a ride home,
call me.

Thank you so much.

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Happy birthday, Dad.

Yeah. Thanks.

- Hey.
- Hey.

It was Augie's idea to bring in

all the big steaks for tonight.

- I just...
- That's sweet.

Yeah.

Hey!

I have to... I need to, uh...

- Yes. Of course.
- Sorry.

- Hey.
- Birthday boy.

- So...
- You need to see this. Now.

- All right. Let's get.
- All right.

Oof.

Fair warning, it tastes like
brackish water with...

I have heard all about
Gramps' new hobby.

I think I can support
without sipping it.

Probably a good idea.

So, uh...

how are you dealing with it all?

I can't sleep.
I'm behind in class.

And don't repeat this, but

my hair was even falling out
at the start of summer.

I can't even keep
my dorm room window open

because there's
so much noise out there.

I thought after today
I would have peace,

but I still feel...

I still feel like...

like this.

Mm.

You remember the night
that we lost Hoyt.

I had a conversation
with your dad,

and he... he told me that
I needed to forgive myself.

And I didn't know
what that meant.

Forgive myself for killing
a psychopath.

You know,
that should be easy, but...

we all know how that went.

It takes time.

Slowly, it gets better.

Thank you, Uncle Liam.

Yeah. Come here.

All right, steaks are resting.

Whoa!

Where's the birthday boy?

Oh, uh, I think I just saw
he and Trey.

- I'll go get 'em.
- All right. Thank you, darlin'.

- Those look so good.
- Those are beautiful, Bonham.

Yeah! It's gonna be...

It's the totem, right?

The namesake for the kills.

- Hey, steaks are up.
- Hey.

What is that?

Yeah, we're just, uh...
We'll be right out.

No. No.

Why do you have this?

- Kelly...
- You know what,

why don't we just
get back to the party?

Trey, it's-it's, uh,
it's-it's fine. Uh...

Kelly and I, uh,
have been down this road

together before.

Let me just close the door,
okay?

Oh, my God.

Oh. Can't believe
this is happening.

Where did you find these?

Uh...

it's the...

it's the last known location
of the Jackal.

He left in a rush.

He'd been quiet
since your wedding, when...

when he finally got to
Hollis Miller.

- My wedding?
- Yes.

Look at the jackal teeth.

There are multiple.

He's, um...

He's gearing up.

It seems like it.

Kelly, I... I'm so sorry

I know where James went
last time.

What it did to the two of you.

That's why Trey and I are
just trying

to piece this together as best
we can, just the two of us.

We're not gonna take it to James

until it is something.

Okay. Well, then, this...
this isn't something.

- Kelly...
- No.

I lost my husband
to this man once.

I am not losing him again.

- Kelly, what you're asking is...
- Is exactly what Larry did

when Emily passed.

He protected Cordi from himself
as long as he could.

Because that is how much

he cared for you.

I am asking you
to do the same thing now.

Both of you.

The entire meal must be finished
in one hour.

If not swallowed,
it don't count.

And you will be disqualified
if anyone else

- touches your meal.
- Yes.

And should you get sick,
the contest is over for you,

and Abby will put you on dishes.

Okay, all right.

On your marks,

- get set... Go!
- All right.

- Smells good, Daddy.
- Have at it.

Whoa-ho!

Oh, my God, stop talking.

Get to your steak, people.

- It's a good steak.
- Thank you so much.

38 minutes left.

Abeline, fire up
the defibrillator, my lord.

There's no help.

I wouldn't say that.

James. You got a... you got a
little of the meat sweats, baby.

You got it.

How you doing, Daddy?

- You tapping out?
- Oh, I quit.

All right, I'm with you.

- Oh! We got another one?
- Another one?

- Two down.
- I think I'm...

- I think I'm...
- You're done?

Look, I'm so sorry, babe.

- Okay, if you're done, I'm done.
- Cap.

- Are we done?
- We're done.

We're done. We're done.

It's been lovely,
I have regrets.

Five minutes left.

A little nectar of the gods
for you.

I'm-I'm done. I'm done.

Yo. I knew it! I knew it.

Are you serious?

Two left?

- Good job, Liam.
- Hey, Walker.

Don't let that spinach find
its way into a napkin now.

Oh, come on, now.

Yeah, Perez here.

Hey, boys, Delmonico brothers
are on site.

Now? Already?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

All right,
I guess that means, uh,

the steak contest is suspended.

I mean, I'm done.

No way!

- This is clearly a suspension.
- No, no, no, we got a winner.

Sure, sure, if a suspension
is what you need

- to sleep at night, Walker.
- Oh, come on, now.

Don't know what
to tell you, man.

Sorry. Hey, we gotta roll out.
Cassie...

it's your show from here.

Let's do it.

You hear that?

Yeah.

Got you covered.

Oh. Get back.

You got eyes on him?

No.

All right, what's
the game plan, Walker?

- I'm thinking a fake sweep.
- Yeah.

I like the sound of that.

All right, you bait him out.

- I'll handle the rest.
- I got it.

- Ready?
- Yeah.

Psst.

Why don't you go ahead and, uh,
toss that downstairs?

Attaboy.

Don't do anything stupid.

Wow. Perez?

- Is that you?
- In the flesh.

Hey, how's your friend?

Thanks for asking, Enzo.

She'll live.

He might not.
Put the gun down.

Maybe we weren't crystal clear
in Tallahassee.

We're not exactly
leaving town empty-handed.

This can all be easy.

Simple exchange.

We give you back this Ranger.
You let us leave.

Sure.

But, like, 30-second
hypothetical here,

what happens when
you actually get to Ensenada?

Retire.

Mm.

What about his girlfriend?

I'm sorry?

We've had wires on you guys
for months.

Satellites over your cars.

We picked up a lot
of criminality.

But also a lot of indiscretion.

What's she talking about, Frank?

You know Frank's been
skimming off the top, right?

He's also sleeping
with your girlfriend.

Oops.

Whoa.

"Enzo can't put it down."

"It's time to choose, Cynthia."

What'd you say to Cynthia?

- It's complicated.
- Is it?

Is it complicated, Frank?

Come here!

Perez, Texas Ranger.

You're under arrest.

Hey. Good night.

Hey.
- Hey.

- Good work out there.

Thank you. Thank you.

I mean, it was easy
with you as our...

Ranger in charge?

Special Agent in charge?

- Yeah.
- Still TBD.

Good night, Cass.

Yep, night.

I'm-I'm sorry.
I just, I just got to ask.

Did I switch things up
between us, at the wedding?

- No.
- Because, I mean,

- I-I didn't mean to by...
- No.

You didn't. I-I should have
said something earlier,

- but I-I...
- Cass.

Look, I just don't want
to be the reason

that you were...

that you were gone for so long.

No, Trey.
No, you weren't that, either.

Look, weddings are weird, right?

Yeah.

Honestly,

best part of today was
just having my friend back.

Yeah.

It was great having
my friend back, too.

Even if it was just for one day.

Hey, Perez.

A word?

I can't say I'm surprised,
but that was impressive.

Watching you run point
back there,

it seems like you've had
some reps at it.

I get why Graves wants you
at Quantico.

I may not like
the answer to this, but...

which way you leaning?

I don't know.

I wish I did.
And working a case with you,

Trey and Walker today?

Felt like the old days.
Like home.

But the Feds...

It's really nice

to make a difference
on that grand of a scale.

- I mean, you really feel it.
- Look, you remember

when you first came here?

I mean, after you locked
Walker in the trunk of a car.

I asked you to put
your faith in me.

Now look, Cass,
this is fully your decision.

I'm asking you
to trust me again.

'Cause I think there's a way
for you to make that difference

that you're talking about,
on that grander scale,

but I think you can do it here.

What does that mean, exactly?

Well, that's...

I guess that's
the "trust me" part.

Look, just, just...

sleep on it, all right?

I will.

Thanks, Cap.

You got it.

I still can't believe Trey won
on a technicality.

I mean, was it?

Oh, come on, now.

Thank you.

- Hey...
- Yeah?

You okay?

Yeah.

You just, you seemed
a little off after August.

Oh. Uh, there was
a lot going on.

He just kind of caught me
off guard, I guess.

Well, he would have
stayed if he knew

that it meant that much to you.

I know, but it didn't.
Or it did.

Just not in terms of today.

Huh?

I'm gonna need
a translation, 'cause...

Yeah, I'm...

It felt bigger
than the day, is all.

It kind of just
seemed to underscore

all that's changing this year,

which I spent the day
trying not to think about,

but with Stella at the dorms
and Augie about to be,

and Cassie to Quantico...

When Augie left, I-I guess
it all just kind of hit me.

I mean, what-what's so bad
about an empty nest?

The quiet.

The quiet?

Yeah, the quiet.

When you can't keep the darker
thoughts from work at bay...

it can eat you alive.
I've seen that happen.

Um, gonna be a lot of quiet
in this house real soon.

That's a lot to carry, Cordi.

Well, like I said, um,

wasn't just about tonight
with August.

Does help to say it
out loud though, huh?

Mm. Yeah.

Probably something I...
I should say out loud, um...

Geri,

I hope you know this, but...

Come in.

- Hey. - Hey.
- Hey, Geri.

Hope I'm not interrupting.

- No. No, no. No.
- Nope.

No, I was just headed to bed.

You two don't burn
too much midnight oil again.

- All right.
- Okay?

Okay.

Cordi...

I know.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Yep.

All right.

Uh...

Yeah.

Hey, uh,
I've been meaning to ask.

You and Kelly were
pretty intense today.

About before, with James.

How bad did it really get?

Larry...

Please come home.

What the hell is this?

- I-I called Kelly...
- No, what the hell is this?

- Cordi? You bring...
- I don't know

what else to do here.

You've been here for two days.

You've slept here
for two nights.

Your son is asking about...

And you need to dry out.

- I'm working, Kelly.
- Yeah, I know you're working.

- Hey.
- I don't need to dry out, okay?

Hey, partner.

Look at this. I got you.

I got you, partner. Hang on.

- Hey, I think you've done enough.
- No, I...

I'm fine.

- I'm fine!
- I got you, I got you.

- Cordi, I'm fine.
- I know you're fine.

- I'm really fine.
- I got you. I got you.

Get your hands off me.

Why did you bring my wife here!?

Hey, hey. It's me. It's me.

All right? It's me.
It's Cordi.

- I didn't mean to do that.
- I know. I know. I know.

I'm sorry.

Look, just, uh...

Just tell DJ that I got...

Why did you bring her here?

Hey...

I can't come home.

I can't come home.
Not yet. I'm too close.

I just, I... I'm so close.

- Larry...
- It's not gonna happen again.

It's not gonna happen again.

Bad.

It was awful.

Worst I've ever seen James
before or since.

It all just kind of, uh...

you know,
ate away at him, I guess.

The depravity?

The quiet.

We need to solve this
before there's another victim.

We need to solve this
before James ever finds out.
