My name is Angie Hansley.

Thank you all for being here.

I'll see you around here again soon.

Wow. Awesome set, Angie.

Thanks, Ramona.
Kinda down for a Thursday crowd, huh?

Yeah, but they're all crying
on the inside, so...

Anyways, here's your cut
of the bar take.

Don't spend it all in one place.

Thank you. I won't.

You shouldn't be wasting your time
in a place like this.

I'm just paying my dues.

Your dues are paid.

You should be in Nashville,
not this dump.

- Someday.
- Just don't let "someday" become "never."

I won't.

And, um...

Be careful tonight.

Your number one fan is back.

Creepy. If you want, I can have Darrell
walk you out to your van.

Nah.

I'm good.

All right. You drive safe now. And, Angie,
remember me when you're famous.

Velma. Hey.

Hey, finally.

I've been trying you for hours.

Sorry about that.
I just now got off the mountain.

You unplug?

Yeah, a little bit.

Colter, it took 10 years
to get closure for Gina Picket.

You don't just move on
from something like that overnight.

What's going on over there?

We're doing some work to the office.

We're expanding a little.

Oh, yeah? Expanding is good.

You got a job?

I do.

50K reward.

Last night, a woman
named Angela Hansley

was abducted outside of a bar
in Wolf Creek, Minnesota.

Four men heard her screams
and tried to help.

Three were killed.

Now the first two victims were members
of a local biker gang,

and the third was an off-duty cop.

The only survivor has identified
the killer as a Benjamin Kinderson.

Parents of the missing girl
offered the reward?

No, it was the suspect's grandmother,
Ava Kinderson.

Really?

She sounds like a really sweet old woman.

My heart went out to her.

Mm. Yeah. Send me the details.

Get the hell off my porch!

Miss Kinderson?

That's right.

State your business,
or I'm in my rights to start shooting.

That's not necessary.

Colter Shaw.

I'm here about the reward.

I'm sorry.

Come in.

Okay.

Call me Miss Ava.

I thought you were
another one of them biker trash.

They're after your grandson?

They've been coming around here
all night,

promising if they find Ben,

they'll drag him through the streets
for what they say he did.

One of those men
that was murdered was a cop.

Don't tell me things
I already know.

You know, my colleague gave me
a completely different impression of you.

I did what I had to do
to get you here.

Everybody wants to help
a sweet old lady.

My Ben doesn't have
that advantage.

You don't think he did
any of these things?

I don't think he's the savage
they're making him out to be.

Three people are dead, a woman's missing,
it's all over the news.

Maybe he was defending himself.

Kidnapping a woman?

Not in his DNA.

My Ben is a gentleman.

That's one thing I can be proud
to have a hand in.

Where's home for Ben?

He doesn't really have one.

He works security for the oil fields.

Three months on, three months off.

I see him when I see him.

Any idea why he'd find himself
in Wolf Creek?

He goes there between work,
gets his head right,

and his father used to take him there.

Hunting and such.

So there's that.

I understand you're worried
about your grandson.

The reward is sizable.

I'm not worried about Ben.

I'm worried that if the police
find him before you do,

we're gonna have a lot of dead cops
on our hands.

Time's a-wastin'.

So I'm going to give you
the Reader's Digest version.

Ben's mother, my daughter, died young,

so his father took him
and raised him wild in the woods.

Cold water shack, taught him to hunt
and trained him to survive

and fight anybody
who threatened their way of life.

I didn't see eye to eye with that man
on much, but he did the best he could.

And then he up and died of a heart attack.

After that, it was the service.

Two tours in Afghanistan.

Ben is a good boy,
but he will defend himself.

And Lord help anybody who comes at him.

And what if he did do these things?

Then I'd want him
to face the consequences.

I have no interest in standing
in the way of justice.

Okay.

I'll help you find him.

- Hi.
- Know what you want?

Yeah. Yeah. I was wondering
if you were working last night.

I heard about what happened.

You see anything?

Yeah.

What happened was that freak
followed Angie out to her van.

Tried to grab her,
then the bikers tried to stop him.

And you saw that?

No.

But that's what the police
are saying happened.

I had bad vibes about that guy.

I didn't like the way
he was looking at her.

What about the cop?

Tam?

He was off-duty.

He'd headed out for the night.

He must have saw the fight
and tried to stop it.

Why are you so interested anyways?

Someone hired me
to figure out who's responsible.

I noticed the security cameras out front.

How would I get a look at that footage
if I wanted to?

Darrell?

This guy's after the guy from last night.

He wants to look at the footage.

Some kind of bounty hunter?

No.

Well, whatever you are,
the sheriff beat you to it.

Took the tape this morning.

And if I were you, I'd get out of here
while the getting's good.

Don't start more trouble, Ricky.

Shut the hell up, Ramona.

Hmm.

Well, you look like
you were just in a fight.

That happened last night?
Your eye?

Who the hell are you?

Kinderson's grandmother hired me.

That bastard killed two of my friends,
kidnapped an innocent girl.

And you're, what, here to save him?

No, no, no. I'm not here to save him.
I'm here to help.

Aw, hell, no.
You're on the wrong side of this, partner.

I was just leaving.

No, no, no. You ain't leaving.

Enough!

What the hell...

is going on?

This guy's trying to help that psycho

who killed our boys and took that girl.

That true?

Kinderson's grandmother
hired me to find him.

Well, I say we're lucky that you're here,

regardless of who's paying you.

We want to find them, too.

Sorry about Ricky here.

He's pretty shook up.

How can we help?

Can you show me what happened?

All right,
tell them what happened.

Me, Paddy and Duck were hanging out
over here, having a smoke.

The girl came out headed to her van,
and your guy grabs her.

We tried to stop him,
but the guy was crazy strong.

Took us all on.

You say it happened here?

Yeah.

The bodies were found behind the bar.

He must have moved them. I don't know.
The guy knocked me out cold.

Huh.

Hey. Where are you going?

Huh. The bodies weren't moved.
The fight happened back here.

What are you doing in my crime scene?

Sheriff Walcott. You find him yet?

We'll get him.

We just need to bring in
some more manpower.

- Who are you?
- Colter Shaw.

The killer's grandmother hired him.

All right, you two take a hike.

I need to speak
with Mr. Shaw, alone.

You got it, Sheriff.

Let's go.

I'm gonna need you to leave.

I've got enough on my plate
keeping the bikers in line.

Kinderson's armed,
extremely dangerous,

and he's still got
the missing girl.

Clock's ticking.

Yeah, I understand that.

You got your officers looking
in the wrong part of the forest.

Excuse me?

Kinderson. He...
He went that way.

Oh. How do you figure that?

Come here. I'll show you.

You see this?

That's blood, isn't it?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Here we go.

Look at this.

Boot print, headed off that way.

Only see one set.

What about the girl?

These are pretty deep, aren't they?

Even for a man Kinderson's size.

I think he's carrying her.

And if they went off on foot
and one of them's injured,

he'd probably only cover
maybe what, 15 square miles?

Unless they've got a car
stashed somewhere.

Well, if he went off
this way, like you say,

I want to show you something,
see what you make of it.

It's, uh...
It's too far to walk, though.

Do you mind riding with me?

Drive and talk,
away from all these folks.

Sure.

Sorry, county regs.

Civilians ride in the back.

All right.

Hello, old friend.

So, what do you make of all this?

I think the bikers lied
about where the fight took place.

Maybe they didn't like
Ben talking to a girl at the bar.

They picked a fight with him.

They weren't prepared
for the kind of training that Ben had.

One of your officers intervened.

And the girl?

Why'd he take her?

You tell me.

You've got the footage
from last night, right?

You can get out here.

I'm starting to get the feeling
you didn't drive me out here

to show me something,
that about right?

Had your truck impounded
and towed to the county lot in Dawkins,

about 12 miles as the crow flies.

This really necessary?
I'm trying to help you.

You've been very helpful,
but I'm gonna take it from here.

You don't know
what you're up against.

This guy was raised in the woods.

You follow him in there,
he's gonna have the advantage.

- You need my help.
- No. I can't have you involved.

This is about more than just Kinderson,
isn't it?

There's things about this case that
I can't afford to share with a civilian.

This is my town.
It's my job to protect it.

It's a beautiful day for a walk.

Bit of car trouble?

Just stopped to take a whiz,
and now it won't turn over.

I can help you bump start it,
if you like.

My guess is either you're that killer
everyone's after,

or you're trying to get
dead yourself out here.

I'm just trying to get to my truck.

Name's Vic.

How about this?

You get me going,
I'll take you where you need to go.

Dawkins impound yard.

Dawkins?

I believe the impound yard's closed
for the night.

I wouldn't mind a ride back to that bar
if it's all right.

I guess I can do that.

Okay. I'll get you started.

Here we go.

Give you a little push.

Here we go.

Noticed your stickers in your window.
You serve?

Army, 1st Cav.

All right. Sounds like you've done
your fair share of hero-ing.

I did my part,

I assume.

You seem like a good guy, Colter.

My advice?

I'd tail it on out of here
when you finish your business.

Wolf Creek's not a place
to mess around in.

You talking about the bikers,
or you talking about the sheriff?

It's hard to tell where the bikers end
and the sheriff begins.

So you think
they're working together?

That's above my pay grade.

If you need anything,
you got my number, yeah?

Thank you. I appreciate that.

All right.

Be careful.

What in the world?

Yo, Colter.
Sorry about that, man.

- My goodness.
- Randy, right?

Yep. Your cousin Randy.

Yeah, I remember you. You helped me
with that Crumley case, right?

You hacked into the police server?

Ah, yes. Some of my best work.

Bobby's dealing
with some family stuff,

but he didn't wanna leave you hanging.

Oh, and for the record,

I showed him
how to jailbreak his first phone.

So you're all good.

Damn!

Ah. So good.

Gummy worms. Sorry.

Those things will kill you.

Not today, not tomorrow.

In the meantime, bring it on.

Bobby tell you about the thing
I'm working on?

Big Ben Kinderson killed some folks

and snatched that single girl
in Wolf Creek.

Give me a sec, man.
I got to de-jank Bobby's computer.

What is this setup?
Why is this... What is that even?

All right. All right.

I'm in the system.
What do you need?

Criminal history on Kinderson.

Way ahead of you.

Looks like a bunch
of country stuff to me.

Loitering, trespassing,
camping illegally at a state park.

Seems more like a loner
than a killer, doesn't he?

Yeah. Ted Kaczynski kind of stuff.

What about the girl?

All right. Looks like she's been
traveling the country alone,

doing her singer-songwriter hustle.

I checked out her single, too. It's good.

Any connection between the two?

Not that I can see.

It could just be
she was in the wrong place.

Uh, yeah. Wolf Creek?

A place with a name like that,

no telling what'll bite you in the ass
once you start poking around.

Look, if I find something,
I'll hit you back.

Hey, listen, tell Bobby
if he needs anything, just call.

He knows you got his back, all right?
I got yours now.

If you need anything, you let me know.
I'll be on standby.

Thank you.

- Help!
- Angie.

Someone help me!

- Angie?
- I'm over here!

You're okay.

All right. You okay?

Where is he?

You're Ben, right?

A lot of people are looking for you.

So let them look.

You build this shelter?

Impressive.

A hand carved death whistle.

That's what I heard last night, right?

That's a pretty good scare tactic.

Those things are not easy
to make, are they?

Your grandmother hired me to find you.

She's worried about you.

I saw Angie.

Do you want to tell me
what happened?

Three men hurting her.

So I stopped them.

Three people are dead.

Including a cop.

I didn't kill anybody.

I put him to sleep,
I broke some bones.

I let them know
I could do worse if I wanted to.

What about Angie?

He saved me is what happened.

They would've killed me
if it wasn't for him.

Cut him loose, Ben.
He's not with them.

If you try anything,
then you're gonna get worse.

Look.

I'm just trying to figure out
what happened.

What happened is I came out the bar

and I saw those bikers kill that cop.

The bikers killed the cop?

I saw them arguing.

They accused him of being a snitch,
and then they stabbed him.

Why would they call him a snitch?

I don't know.

But they were
all around this pickup truck,

and the back was full of guns,
like really big guns.

I ran.

But then one of the bikers
grabbed me,

and that's when Ben saved me.

Bikers are running guns.

And the cops are in on it.

Well, they both want us dead.

So what's the difference?

We can't go to the police.
We can't trust anybody.

You did your job.

Now you can go.

How did you find me?

You left me one clean print.

I could tell by the depth of it
that you were carrying Angie,

which would limit your paths

up the hill.

The mountain told me the rest.

How long you planning
on holding up here, huh?

You can't stay here forever.
They will find you.

I'll be ready.

I'm sure you will.
What about Angie?

I can take care of her just fine.

For how long?

I know your father raised you
as a survivalist.

I don't know if that's what
my dad would have called it, but...

Yeah, he drove me pretty hard.

I hated him most of the time.

I know a little something about that.

What, you got one of those, too?

My dad was pretty hard on us, yeah.

My old man wanted me
and my siblings

to always be prepared, he said.

Prepared for what?

We don't really know.

He thought the world
was headed to a dark place.

It's already there.

Maybe.

You have a hard time with people?

I go at it alone mostly.

I've seen people do terrible things.

But being honest,

I think most people are good.

Well, most of the time.

Right up until they're not.

My old man used to say those are the ones
you have to look out for.

And never trust anybody.

You saved Angie's life.

- I'm not done yet.
- No, you're not.

I gotta find a way out of this thing.

The sheriff has video footage
of what happened last night.

You can prove what happened out there

That's one of my traps.

We gotta get back to Angie.

Police are here. We gotta go.

No. Let the traps do the work.

Anybody that makes it through,
we take them out.

I'm not gonna let you do that.

If you want your freedom,
you gotta clear your name.

He's right. If we fight, they win.

Not if we strike first.

There may come a time for that,
but right now,

we gotta get Angie out of here. Okay?

Your van's still in the lot.
Let's go. Follow me.

You okay?

Yeah.

So what now?

Well, now we go
to the police station.

We get that footage.

Well, they're not
just gonna hand it over.

I didn't say
we were gonna ask for it.

Most of the police are on the mountain
right now, right?

The police station's
probably pretty deserted.

You want to invade the police station.

Are you guys crazy?

Maybe.
I don't see any other way.

The police are mixed up
in this somehow, right?

We go in there, though,
we do it my way.

No weapons.

Nobody gets killed.
You understand? My way.

- Deal.
- All right.

First thing we gotta do
is get Angie someplace safe.

There's someone
we can trust.

Hello.

Vic, it's Colter.

I need a favor.

Denise, you gonna get that?

Give me the gun.

Let it go. Don't move.

I got what we needed. Let's go.

Shaw. We got cameras in here, too.

Yeah, I thought of that.

I figured we could just sort of pretend
like today never happened, right?

Considering I saw about 80 grand
of the seized money back there.

Any big busts on the books recently?

Or just taking kickbacks from
Kropper's crew?

You got no idea
what you're talking about.

This proves that Ben's innocent.

Kropper and his men
have held this town hostage for years.

You're holding the first
real evidence I got against him.

You better make that go away, or I will.

I'll let you go now.

I need you on the hunt, Nash.
Not here.

I don't understand, Sheriff.

No, I mean it. You can't be here.

Just go. Now.

No. Hey! No, don't do that.

Don't raise that weapon.

Easy, Nash.

Sheriff.

Listen to him, Nash.
All right? Just let him go.

He killed Tam!

It wasn't Kinderson.

Trust me, Deputy, please.

Don't get yourself killed right now.

Deputy, we came for something.
We have it. We're leaving.

No one's gotten hurt here.

No one has to get hurt.

Put the gun on the ground
and kick it towards me.

Do it. Now.

Kick the gun towards me.

Vic.

Vic, you there?

I'm sorry, Colter.

Neighbor spotted me and Angie.

They got eyes everywhere.

Brought us back to the bar.

You should have left town
when you could, Colter.

All we want is what you took
from the station.

Let's make a trade.

I swear to God
if you touch her I'm gonna--

Angie!

No, that was your old pal Vic
saying "Adios!"

Angie's still alive and well.

Let him know, darling.

- Get the hell off of me!
- Don't you touch her!

Just come to the bar.

We'll do ourselves a straight up trade.

Or I will kill her.

It's your choice.

See, the bikers are running guns.

That's a helluva load.

There's the cop.

Angie's show let out at 10:00.

There she is.

I'd say right there, that's proof
you were acting in self-defense.

You're helping Angie.

There. Ricky goes inside. So...

Why would Kropper want it so badly?

The biker who killed the cop is dead.

The bikers?

They're not dead.

Yeah, but who's that?

It's Kropper.

Kropper killed them.

As long as we have this, he's gonna
have to keep Angie alive for leverage.

The rest is up to us.

You didn't have to kill Vic.

He was just an old man.

This world is filled with old men.

You know, some ancient Nordics
would cut all weakness

from their ranks.

Old men, weak children.

Survival is about strength.

Lions do it.

Eagles.

Wolves.

We any better?

We're supposed to be.

Go check it out.

That's her van.
Shaw's got to be in there.

Go check it out.

What in the hell was that?

I don't like this, man.

He's just messing with your mind!

Get out there and get him!

Go!

Help!

Angie.

Colter, look out!

Colter, behind you!

- Come get this gun.
- Okay.

Behind me.

Where's Ben?

He's keeping the bikers away from the bar.
Stay down.

- Stay down.
- Ben!

Oh Ricky,
you crazy son of a bitch.

Hand it over, Colter.

Kill him.

Not yet.

I'm gonna torture this bastard
for what he did to Paddy and Duck.

Ricky. You don't know, do you?

Your friend Kropper here.

He's the one
that killed your two friends.

What the hell is he talking about?

He's lying, Ricky. Kill him!

That's why he wants
the footage so bad.

It shows Officer Tam being killed.

If Paddy's already dead,
you can't send him to prison.

But it also shows your friend here

killing your two prospects.

Now, I've seen the footage.

I could show it to you if you'd like.

They were alive
when I went inside for help.

You're not gonna believe me
over this jackass?

They were just kids.

I brought them in.
I was responsible for them.

- How could you, Kropper?
- They were weak, Ricky!

They screwed us by killing that cop!

We can't have weakness.

You're weak.
No weakness, not in prospects.

Stop your damn whining already!

Bastard!

So where are we
off to next?

Continuing the tour.

I found myself a roadie.

Are you gonna be good?

You know
there's a lot of people out there.

Maybe some good ones.

Maybe.

Oh.

Speaking of the tour,
I found something for you.

My guitar!

I thought I was gonna
have to buy a new one.

- How--
- Oh, no, trade secret.

I can't divulge how I...

I knew it was missing,
and I checked the local pawn shop.

No big deal.

You know, in a different world,

me and you may have been friends.

If only.

Thank you so much, Colter.

For everything.

You're welcome.
You're welcome. Be good.

Yes, sir.

I'll take good care of him.

Good bye, Grammy.

Mr. Shaw.

Thank you for bringing
my grandson home safe.

You're very welcome.

They said you were the best,

and they were right.

Thank you.

You two are quite similar, you know?

Yeah, I kind of noticed.

Well, I know what Ben had to go through
to make him that strong.

Whatever happened to you, or whoever,

they must have done something right.

Take care of him, yeah?

- Hey.
- Glad I caught you.

I'm on my way to tell Kinderson
he's been cleared of all charges.

That's good.

I owe you an apology.
I shouldn't have stranded you like that.

Yeah. I do have one question for you.

If you knew Ben was innocent,
why did you go after him?

He still had the girl.
I didn't know what his intentions were.

Those stacks of cash that I saw
at the station,

those belonged to the bikers?

For letting them think
I was looking the other way.

I needed to keep a lid on things
while I gathered evidence.

I know that you sent Tam in to prove
that the bikers were running guns.

Yeah.

Lost a good man.

I got a cousin in the state police,

was gonna get the tapes to her.

You know, thanks to you,
we're out from under them.

You need an escort out of town?

No. I think I can find my own way
out of town this time.

Okay. Good luck out there.

You too.
