Well, folks, it's another triple -digit day here in Dallas, so y 'all just keep

your air conditioners on, and here's a little something to take the heat off

those high -electricity bills.

Now,

Walker, I don't need to tell you that the market's been a little baller since,

right? That's right for a bit. You don't have to tell me.

Real estate's coming back, but I'm beginning to feel like I'm six months

the curve.

How about a year?

No, I'm serious.

So am I, Trevette. And the answer is no.

You don't even know what my idea is here.

Trevette, I have finally saved a little money from the last investment you got

me into.

So I don't want to hear about it.

What are you doing here? I got fired. That's what I'm doing.

Fired? For stealing.

Of course I didn't. The dumbass says if I make any noise, he'll take it up with

the police.

I can't let him get away with this.

I'm going to get my money from Dunlop.

I'm fired.

We got no food, no money, no jobs.

That's my uncle. No, don't take any handouts, Carmen. You know that.

I thought I told you you were fired.

Came for my payments, Dunbar.

You stole from me, boy.

I never stole anything, and you know it.

Are you calling me a liar?

I'm not calling you nothing, all right?

I just want what you owe me.

Why don't you just go on welfare?

Look, you owe me two weeks' pay.

Drag his little fun out of Tell

him

when he wakes up, that's a poor man a dollar to me work

Prevent. No.

No. No.

It's Walker. No.

Prevent. No.

Attention all units. There's been a 2 -11 reported at Stratton Auto Parts,

and Central.

Suspect was last seen headed west, post -central, in a blue Chevy Malibu with a

broken taillight.

On central.

Strangers walking on Travette subject sign is West on Trace.

Take it easy.

The lady, the baby, are they all right?

Yeah, they're fine.

I'll get a paramedic.

Take it easy.

You'll be okay.

In the eyes of a ranger.

The unsuspecting stranger had better know the truth of wrong from right.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

Any wrong you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.

Any free thoughts?

Hi. Hi.

I was just thinking about when I was lying in that hospital bed that I need

do something more with my life.

Like what?

Like give something back.

All I do is put people behind bars.

I mean, what about all the victims? What about all the people that really need

help and they have no way of getting it?

What is it you want to do?

I want to open up a non -profit center for the needy.

With legal aid, daycare, job placement.

Do you plan on quitting the DA's office?

No. I mean, I don't want to quit.

I just want to do more.

If you want to do more, then you should do more.

I knew I'd have your support.

This is Cahill.

Carlos Sandoval is here to see you.

Send him in.

Hey,

Walker. Hey, Carlos.

Alex, I'm sorry to bother you, but can you do me a favor?

What is it?

Can you check on a Hector Lopez for me? He's picked up this morning.

Yeah, I picked him up.

Why are you interested?

His man, he's his husband. I just talked to him. He says he worked at Stratton

Auto Parts for two weeks, and when it came time to get paid, the boss accused

him of stealing.

Well, did he press charges?

No. He said this boss of his accuses him of stealing, and then says that if he

raises a ruckus about it, that he'll go to the cops.

So Hector winds up going back down there, knocking the guy out, and taking

he says he was owed.

Well, that's when you arrested him.

Alex, will you check with the prosecuting attorney?

Find out what he plans on doing.

No problem.

See what I can find out.

He's a good kid, Walker.

I mean, he was too young when he married my niece, but he's a hard worker. He

won't go on welfare. He won't take food stamps.

No need to take help from me.

Let's go talk to your niece.

I know you were against the marriage calls from the very beginning.

You just don't like him. No.

You two were just so young.

Well, maybe we were, Carlos.

But I love him so much, and he's never been in trouble a day in his life,

although he could have been easy.

How's that?

Just on account of where he came from.

No mother or father, at least no one around.

She's right, Walker. I mean, the kid has a lot of pride, and he's tried hard to

make a better life for his family.

You see, Hector has this idea of the way things should be.

of how he's going to give her baby all the things he never had. I mean, not

money, but time, love, and intention.

Whatever happened to him? He didn't do it for himself. He did it for us.

He did it for our family.

Walker, Carlos.

I talked to the DA that's handling Hector's case.

He called it a slam dunk for armed robbery and assault with a deadly

What deadly weapon?

He said he had a gun.

I didn't find a gun in the car.

Hector's boss swears he had a gun, and he has two witnesses to back him up.

So unless you come up with something solid on Hector's behalf, he could be

looking at hard time.

Thanks, Alex.

I want to hear your side of the story.

Don't call us.

I want to hear it from you.

The truth?

If someone like me takes money from a guy like Dunbar, the truth is whatever

man says it is.

Hey, dear, why don't you just tell Walker what happened?

My buddies told me not to mess with Dunbar.

They said he burned me just like he did the others.

Burn you? How?

By getting me to work, then come pay, they fire me for stealing.

That's his game.

I never stole anything in my life.

Before this, anyway.

Did you go there with the intention of robbing him?

No.

Carlos, I swear it.

I went there to ask for my money. The money he owed me.

And I was cool about it.

What did he do?

Knocked me down.

He hit you?

Yeah, Mr. Heavyweight.

Sucker punched me. So I clocked him at the bottom.

He crashed into the counter and went out like a light.

I took exactly what he owed me and booked.

He said you had a gun.

What?

No gun, Carlos. I don't mess with guns.

You know, Carmen wouldn't let me have a gun even if I wanted one.

Don't lie about that. Just like he lies about everything.

Thanks, Doctor.

And although you have no prior criminal record, Mr. Lopez, I am forced by the

letter of the law.

I hereby sentence you to one year in Denton Minimum Recruit Prison, three

probation, and 200 hours of community service.

Court is adjourned.

Here comes the dead in prison, gentlemen. Move inside.

You lead them in.

Wilson, activated assault.

Three years.

Let's go.

Delgado, transeptado, two years.

Ryan, Desley, four years.

Lopez, arms robbery.

One year.

Judge Woodworth must be getting soft in his old age.

You're lucky.

Heck, boy.

All right, girls, listen up.

My name is Calvin.

And I'm going to tell you something right now. I don't give a damn how you

your time.

If you screw up, you wish you'd never met me.

I said you're fired.

You're pretty good at sucker punching people, aren't you, Dunbar?

Hey, don't mess with me, Buster.

I was a pro boxer.

Is that a fact?

Yeah.

I'll tell you what.

I'll let you throw the first punch.

That was two punches done, Barr.

You must have been a lousy fighter.

I'm going to smash your face.

I'm going to break your head.

I'm going to hit you so hard your children are going to be born with a

Too bad you can't fight as well as you can talk.

I love that wife and Eddie.

They're hanging in there.

Eddie, I love them so much.

Listen,

that Texas Ranger you were telling me about, what's his name?

Walker. Walker, yeah.

Is he still pushing to get you out of here? Yeah, he turned out to be a really

good friend.

Good.

You see, what I was thinking was, after you're out, maybe you could tell him

about some of the stuff that the other guys are pulling.

the drugs, the numbers, the beatings.

Hey, I told you.

I don't want to know about any of that stuff, all right? But it's not right,

man.

Somebody's got to stop Kelton. It doesn't concern me, okay?

I'm going to be out of here real soon.

Kelton, there ain't enough stuff to get in the way of that, all right? I'm

sorry, Eddie. I'm sorry, all right?

You guys wanted to see me?

Yeah. We busted Dunbar today.

His two witnesses changed their story real fast.

That's great.

Hector's being released.

Today? Mm -hmm.

And we thought you'd like to tell Carmen yourself.

Thanks, guys. Thanks a lot.

Watch it, will you? Pay attention. You get out of here quick.

Walker, I'm so excited. It's my dream coming true.

Thank you for helping me out with the down payment.

Glad to help out.

Now I just got to come up with a name for it.

Well, whatever you come up with, I'm sure will be great.

No, I just want to help our people.

Help our people.

Help our people.

H -O -P.

How about...

Help our people excel.

H -O -P -E. Hope.

That's brilliant!

You!

You are so smart!

I have my moments.

Yes, you do have your moments, don't you?

There you are.

I'm worried I wouldn't get a chance to take a bite. Yeah, you're heading out,

huh? About an hour.

Hey, great.

Yeah.

Hey, listen, I got something for you.

Sort of a going away for it. Oh, yeah, what's that?

Kelton's book.

The one that he keeps track of all his drug deals.

I don't want any part of that, eh? I know, that's what makes it so perfect.

You're getting out of here. Kelton can't touch you.

But if you go and give this to your ranger friend... He can fry Kelton once

for all.

Make it a hell of a lot better for us stiffs who've still got time to do it.

Here, come on, take it. I don't know, Eddie. I don't know, all right?

Here, listen, Jed, I never pushed you before because I didn't want to risk

getting you on Kelton's bad side.

And I didn't want to blow your chances for an early out.

But now you are getting out.

No one needs to know where this came from. Just get it to the right people,

that's all.

Please.

Thank you.

You're a good lad, Hector.

Who knows?

I might even get a chance to see you on the outside.

Good luck.

Harry, where's my book?

Get out of the way!

The people can't leave the

All right, you better stay here till I find out what's going on.

Careful.

Excuse me, do you know where I can find the warden?

You found him. Who are you?

Detective Sandoval, DPD. I was just down at the prison to pick up my nephew, and

they wouldn't give me any information. They just told me to come down here and

talk to you.

What's your nephew's name?

Lopez, Hector Lopez.

I hate to tell you this, Detective, but Lopez killed a man this morning in the

yard. Killed a man?

Hector? And then he escaped.

Commandeered that truck and ran the gate.

Look at you, Moe.

My Chief Guard Kelton's never had one get away.

That doesn't make any sense, Warden. He was getting out today.

I don't know what to tell you, Detective. He's gone.

Let me go with him, Warden.

Now listen to me.

They're saying Hector escaped.

How? Why?

I don't know why. Now, I'm going to find out. Call Walker. Tell him what

happened.

One word for you, Walker.

What?

Emus.

Emus.

Yeah. Emu ranches.

Big birds. Really tasty. Big birds.

Low in fat.

Meat of the future.

Are you talking as an investment?

Yeah. No.

No.

What?

Yeah, Trevette. Wait.

Yeah, he's right here. Carmen Lopez is a problem.

Yeah, Carmen.

When?

Okay, I'll be right there.

Can you finish up? Yeah, absolutely.

Walk.

No, Trinidad.

I love you both so much.

You got it?

You got it?

Get him on that trail.

Go, go, go, go.

Hey,

warden.

Just taking two men with you?

Well, that's all I need to catch a punk like Lopez.

Well, you got a third now.

This is Detective Sandoval. He'll be riding with you.

I want him riding with me, Warden. Look, Kelton, I'm in charge here, and I say

he's riding with you.

Where's Lopez?

Maybe you can talk him in.

Get him a horse.

You can't ride a horse, can't you?

I'll beat you up.

What the hell are you doing here anyway?

I mean, what's this guy to you?

It's my business.

Yeah, well, catch and escape prisoners is mine.

Captain.

There he is.

Hey, hey, hey, put your guns away.

Put it down.

You know shooting here. What are you talking about?

I'm here to bring that prisoner back alive, and that's what we're going to

All right.

Go talk.

Put it down.

Hector!

Hector, it's me, Carlos!

Captain, what are you doing? That kid's going to spill his guts.

You worry too much.

They were coming after me. That's why I ran.

Carlos.

Carlos.

Carlos.

Carlos. Carlos.

Carlos. Carlos.

Can't believe it.

I hit him.

You seen it, right?

Yeah.

Doug!

Find him.

Why didn't Kelton kill Eddie?

Because of this.

Eddie gave it to me.

Kelton, Jackson, and Peters were in all sorts of drug deals for the prisons.

Eddie says they proved it.

They killed him for it.

They should have been back by now.

Hello, Walker.

Hello, Jim.

What's going on?

I don't know. I can't even raise my chief guard, Kelton, on the radio.

Where'd they go?

White Rock, mate.

I know back way in.

Can I get a horse? You got it.

Get him, quick!

Come on, get him!

I don't hear him anymore.

It's the coming, trust me.

You'll have to see him here, Captain.

You know,

Hector, I know I've been kind of hard on you these past couple of years, and I

think I deserved it.

Yeah, a lot of stuff.

I just wanted you to know that I'm really proud of you for trying to do the

right thing.

Thanks, Carlos.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, man, you were right.

I still come.

We're closed, Jeff.

Don't move.

You okay?

No, I've seen everything.

I'm glad to see you.

What's going on, Carlos?

Some of the guards are running a drug ring in the prison.

They killed an inmate who had the proof and pinned it on Hector.

What proof?

It's right here.

Are they the ones chasing you?

Yep.

Where you going? Be right back.

You alright?

Did you see that?

Yeah.

What is it?

Help me stop the dog.

I hear them.

They're getting pretty close. Yeah.

Let's get out of here. All right.

What the

hell's

going on, Jones?

I don't know, Captain.

What is it?

Kind of pollen or something.

Strong, like sneezing powder.

Are they trapped?

No way.

I've got to get him out of here.

Come on.

Come on.

What are we going to do now, Captain?

We don't need them.

They're close.

I can feel it.

Get on the horse and get out of here.

What are you guys going to do?

Take care of these guys.

Go on. Get out of here.

What happened?

Yeah, I'm lucky.

Here, take mine.

What are you going to do?

Never mind.

Thanks.

I owed you one.

You don't take orders very well, do you, Hector?

No.

Thank God he doesn't.

Look, all I know is I'm hungry.

I hear you.

Due to the circumstances, the judge has dropped all the charges, Hector. We

can't thank you enough for all the help. Just believe in me.

It's my pleasure.

Celebrate Hector's release. We've got you something real special, partner. All

right. Emu burgers.

You knew burgers? Yeah. They're lean, tasty, healthy. Good for you. Y 'all

to think about investing.

This is the meat of the future, folks.

What's an emu?

It's a big bird, Carlos.

A big bird.

Bird burgers.

My partner and I here, we just invested quite a little bit of money in it, and

we'd like to think, well, we're getting in on the ground floor.

Ground floor?

The emu market peaked a couple of years ago. Where have you guys been?

Are you sure?

Or I'd never listen to you again.

Because that's where the Rangers want to be.
