Do you think he did it?

He's a holly.

Yeah, look where it goes.

That time for duty free? For what?

He's expecting us, right?

You think he cares about an open bottle with what we got in the...

I thought you knocked him out.

What do we do?

Anything clear?

Roman candles.

Been waiting.

Passports.

Do you have any idea how fucking close that was?

All right.

Sorry. Damn.

Can I shoot him now?

I think he'll talk if you start dunking him in the river.

Careful with him.

Just careful with him. Stupid car is what it is. Don't slam it.

It's true what they say about you, Tommy. Don't know when to shut up.

Feels like I'm gonna lose my mind.

That was quite a traffic accident.

It's a bit more complicated than that. Yeah, you said two dead bodies and she

wants a search?

Yeah, she does.

It's crazy.

Sometimes you just have to let people do their jobs.

This border woman has been here for two weeks, and I don't want to leave my

son's birthday to go check on her work. I wouldn't ask you to do this if it

wasn't important.

So these are the kind of decisions that you're going to have to make all the

time when you step into my shoes. So just do it quick, and you'll be back for

cake.

Okay, you're in charge.

Secret's in the seer.

I will be right back.

You must be from Border Intelligence.

I'm Henry Rowland.

Erica Roth.

Nice to meet you.

You always stop for coffee on your way to a crime scene, Officer Rowland?

I heard you and my boss had a difference of opinion.

I heard you put away Danny Garbino, then he died in prison.

Mm -hmm. Died of a heart attack.

Shame. I assume because Border's here, you don't think it was natural causes.

Not with the increase of product on both sides of the river since his passing?

These two fellas involved?

They crossed the border and they both got killed. Reads like some kind of

trafficking. What does Charlie think?

He thinks I'm a pain in the ass.

That's not what Charlie... Charlie thinks that this was an argument gone

Now, these guys might have been involved in some shady business, but... Why do

you want to pull a search together?

They weren't moving drugs.

Someone was in the trunk.

Survivor, maybe a shooter.

If... Somebody was in the trunk, and they had a long time to get very far

Which is why I'd like a search.

We're a small town that doesn't have border resources. We've been pulling

from different counties right off shift into some serious overtime.

Charlie's going to need convincing, so... Responding officers, he's two

with GSWs. Easy assumption is that they traded fire, and that's that.

The gunshot residue was only on the driver's hands.

Buddy here was shot in the face. If he didn't shoot, who hit the driver?

Buddy number two still have his looks?

Thank you.

Huh.

You recognize him?

Yeah. Well, he went to my high school. That's...

Wayne Thompson.

Now do the cake.

Do the cake.

Who's this?

Jackie Robinson.

56.

Mother bitch. This is worth something, man.

Yeah. Coach gave it to me.

You find something?

We need to call in that search.

Yeah. Yeah?

Uh... Which Charlie will take better coming from me. So you tried to

talk me out of it, but we're going to call in the search.

Why? He's going somewhere.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm going to go speak to some guys that knew Wade.

Okay.

Hank Rowland, how lovely.

Hello, Olivia.

Were you going to tell me he was back?

Am I supposed to know who you're talking about?

Liv.

I'm under a pile of bodies.

Is he here? No, Hank, he's not here.

And you know what? You shouldn't be either. It's bad for business. Why don't

just go back to your pretty little life and your perfect little life?

How long has he been back?

He's in trouble.

Is he not in trouble?

Like real trouble.

People are dead.

Wait, Thompson.

You want to have a smoke with me?

No.

Jesus, I think you're scaring me. Come on, have a smoke with me.

Remember how I picked you up from that card game?

Yeah.

He lifted his head up and told me to look.

Face all bloody and blue.

You asked me, is this really what I want in my life?

You didn't have the sense to ask for yourself.

Well, all I could think was, that's the most beautiful man I've ever seen.

Now you tell me why you think he's dead like there's something I can do about

that. I didn't say he was dead But if you know what he's into and who he's

You need to tell me now

Bad as you say what makes you think he's alive

Because I know him

Well, then promise me you'll bring them home.

Okay.

Ugly business.

Is everyone all right?

This is an active crime scene. You're going to have to move along.

Of course. My apologies.

Um, since you're here, I'm new to town. Do you know the Heron? Have you heard of

it? You're going to have to turn around and make a right on Hennepin.

You don't have GPS?

I put his body back.

I appreciate your concern, but you can't be here. Please move along.

Sorry.

I think one of them is our Mr. Hawley.

Hmm.

Go and go. Get on with it.

Cool, Mom.

Coming up after the break, Dolly Parton.

You know, she wrote Jolene and I Will Always Love You in the same night on a

napkin in some bar.

Who, Dolly Parton?

I love Dolly. Can you imagine that talent?

He thinks she knew those songs would change her life.

I have this fantasy.

I'm her waitress, and I'm, like, watching her write.

But only I can see it. How special she is. Even Dolly doesn't see it.

Dolly doesn't know she's special?

Sure, now. But you need that first person.

Right? That sees something in you.

Maybe that's me.

What did you hear about the napkin? The internet?

I don't know.

Both songs on the same night?

Uh, yeah, that smells like bullshit to me. Sorry.

Uh, okay, that's $10 .75.

Cash or charge?

Um... You can keep the game.

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Steve?

I've been calling you.

Is everything ready for tonight?

Steve?

I just couldn't do it, Walt.

Because he didn't even know his origin story.

Yeah, but this isn't like the other times. This is Blue Beetle's first

appearance.

No, no, it's just... No, it's just not for sale.

Walt.

Because...

You really have Blue Beetle's first appearance?

Yeah.

Why, you like him? Seems cool.

What's he, like, do?

Well, he's kind of like Indiana Jones, at least in the issue I was just talking

about. But he gets this amulet from, like, ancient Egypt, and it gives him

this power.

Do you like it?

It's, like, special.

It was my dad's.

Yeah, it was one of his favorites.

Was?

He died.

Oh, so did my mom.

It grew back. Oh,

that's my boss. I just lost this 5K.

For a comic.

Yeah.

Take care, guys.

Bye. Why don't you buy that comic?

I can't afford it.

What if you could?

I can't.

You're Miles, right? Miles King?

Yeah. I'm Ruby.

Did you grow up with a kid named Steve?

Steve what?

What if I told you that Steve found an amulet?

And it could make all your dreams come true.

But he needs your help.

Just for one night.

Doesn't seem like much of a search party. That's because Charlie said no.

Where were you?

Chasing down a lead.

Any luck?

Not yet.

All right, Officer Roland.

Keep me updated.

You'll find I tend to be pretty hands -on.

Seems I stepped on the wrong toes, and I'd hate to have that lead to any more

breakdown in communication.

Well, that's a good thing we're on the same team.

Updates. Updates.

I've got a new kid here, Henry Mullen.

Henry here just needs to let off a little steam.

So I want to see him move.

You go easy.

Or what if I kill him?

Henry!

Hello there. Can I help you?

Are you the owner?

Hour rate, 60 bucks.

I wouldn't recommend an overnight dress like that, unless, of course, he likes

to fight.

Tough running a business all by yourself, I imagine.

I do fine.

I'm new to the area, and I'm interested in making some investments in it.

A place like this could do wonders with some improvements. You interested in

selling? Not whatsoever.

What about your business partner?

Tommy Horny, isn't it?

Have a chat with him.

I'm afraid I'm the only one here.

Well, tell somebody to call me.

And my offer is genuine.

I think you'd find my financial compensation rather generous.

Nice to finally meet you, Olivia.

Polly?

Polly?

Polly? Polly?

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh,

shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh,

shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh,

shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh,

shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh,

shh,

Well, you're going to be all right.

Okay?

Hey, Pete, how's it going?

Hank? Wait, you go by Henry? Henry, yeah.

Everything all right?

No. Is Tuesday here? I need your help with something.

I don't know. She moved out after her mom died.

I guess her wasn't the best company.

Yeah. Or is it some kind of a police business?

You got an animal issue?

No, we got to swing by the clinic, though.

The clinic's closed.

You own the clinic, Pete.

Okay? Do you remember when I picked you up in the river, Ben? Do you remember

what you said?

That I owed you one. Oh, Christ.

Hank, I only had a couple.

She's right after Janine. I know, but you said what you said.

So, yeah.

Let me get some clothes on.

What is this, like you got an issue with the canines?

Something like that.

Get dressed. Come on.

Hey, it's just through here.

Thanks.

Okay, here we are.

Make yourself at home.

It stinks in here.

Oh, no way. I used to play in my basement before school. I can't believe

still got one.

Hmm. So, listen, Steve had this big sale planned tonight, but he got picked up

at the border.

Forgot, like, a joint in his ashtray or whatever.

So he needs me to go through with it. And he said if I need some help, there's

nobody he trusts like you.

We haven't talked in years.

Um...

But you said he was selling a comic book, yeah?

Can I see it?

I might have lied, like, a little bit about it being a comic book.

Okay, there's nothing to this. You say you're Steve, you hand the guy a bag, he

hands you one back.

He's asking for you.

He's asking for me. I thought you gave him enough to knock out a horse, right,

Pete? Yeah, well, he ain't a horse. He's probably in his first rodeo with

Ketamine. Got it. Come on, Tommy, come on. Hold him.

Well,

you didn't really give me much of a choice, Tommy. Look at what I fucking

yeah?

But he's slippery and he fucking keeps moving.

Hey, is that a gunshot wound?

Someone poked him. Someone stabbed him.

Shit, shit, shit.

You know what's crazy about this thing is that the coach is like... Pete?

Pete. Pete!

What's happening? I need you to hold this, hold this, okay? Put your hand on

hold it. Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine. Keep the pressure there.

I say, hold it steady. Yeah, I'm not a fucking doctor, Pete.

No shit, Henry, neither am I.

Mum?

What's that?

The bird we saw at the crime scene.

Sarkis has been rabbiting on about the new restrictions that she's trying to

on him and his mates at the border.

Did you find out if Tommy was in any of them body bags?

Chas is on it. I'm off to meet Jay.

No, I want you to do it. Chas will cock it up.

Jay can handle that amateur Steve by himself.

Of course, Mum.

It'll be stable, I think.

Okay.

A little fluid.

Pain that he'll pull through, but... You're smart enough to know he ought to

to a hospital, right?

I have something else in mind.

You've got to be kidding me.

Here?

Jesus, you and Tom, we were always obsessed with this shithole rock.

The kids party here like we used to.

Well, Pete, I certainly fucking hope not.

It's for you.

But we don't even look alike. I mean, we're not even the same race. No one

what makes Steve a Steve, okay? He's just a name to them.

You really don't smell that?

I can't. I don't know what that smell is, but I can't be here. I'm sorry. No,

don't know what Steve told you, but I'm not a drug dealer.

Who's that?

They're early.

What? Okay, you can't leave now, but it's going to be okay.

It's going to be the easiest money you ever made.

You're Steve tonight, okay?

It's you and me.

Together.

I'll keep you safe.

Steven. Uh, yeah. Hey, man.

Lovely place you got here. And who's this?

I'm his girl.

Oh, enchanté.

Madame, I am terribly sorry. My associate's running late.

Could I perhaps get a sneak peek at the product?

I'll get it. Oh, brilliant.

are always trained in like special knives or something.

Just pretend he's a customer.

My customers don't chainsaw people to death in bathtubs.

Here.

Lovely.

It's an interesting theme on the bag. It's a dot -dash pattern.

Most of the vacuum sealers use a stitch pattern, which is shit for powder.

I'm a details man.

You see that bag there? I sealed it myself, so I know the value.

I think this should cover it, yeah?

I told the boss I don't like unpleasant.

And it can be such an unpleasant business, you know? It weighs on you,

The two of you.

You are nothing. You are jokers. You are selling stolen drugs back to the people

you stole them from.

Miles, run.

I will fucking shoot you, I will.

Terribly unpleasant.

Just as crazy as high school.

How's he doing?

His vitals are good.

Come back tomorrow, check him.

But I see infection to worry about now.

If he's lucky, a couple days he's right as rain. If not... Hey,

you're safe. You're going to screw up your stitches laying down, all right?

Look, look at how up his throat.

I mean, he's got a rest.

He can't be awake.

Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, go ahead.

Hey, hey, do you think that maybe you could go down to the boat so Tommy and I

can chat for a second?

I put a bottle of brandy down there in the glove box for you.

First bit of sense he took.

In the bedroom.

In! Let's go!

Go, go, go, go!

Don't let him walk us in. Get in!

No, sir. No, no, no, no. Just listen, okay?

I'm not Steve.

I'm not. My name is Miles.

I'm Miles King.

Okay? We lied to you. Please, just... Just look.

Whatever Steve is into, we don't know anything about. I swear we can work it

out.

Miles. Steve?

Whoever you are, I don't care what your name is.

Gaz will sort this out. Now give me your phone.

Phones, now! Let's go!

You too.

Now on the floor.

Good. Good.

Now, we're going to wait for my associate to arrive.

Quiet as mice.

And pleasant.

I hear so much as a whimper.

And pleasantries go out the window. Understood?

Good.

Do you want to talk about it?

About what?

Thief?

My old friend that's lying dead under the bed or the guy that's got us at

gunpoint?

Either, I guess.

No, I don't want to talk.

You don't know him, Miles.

Not anymore.

He got dark, okay?

He wasn't that kid playing video games with you. He was violent.

He hurt me, Miles.

And I know I lied to get you here, but that was the only way that I could make

him. Make him and me, it was the only way that I could make it all worth

something.

We had this all planned tonight.

I was going to help him.

We were going to split the money and go our separate ways.

Did you kill him?

What kind of person do you think I am?

None of this matters anymore.

That guy's friend is coming.

Maybe we could climb out the window.

Do I look like Spider -Man?

We'll break our necks. Plus, if we yell at someone who's walking by, he'll just

come in here and shoot us.

Well, we have to try something.

Yeah, well, we're stuck.

So fuzzy, Hank.

It's fuzzy.

Okay, you were in the trunk of a car after someone stabbed you, and then you

killed two people.

Wade Thompson, for Christ's sake, Tommy.

And you're going to just tell me, it's fuzzy.

Any other victim here?

Who stabbed you?

I don't know.

Walk me through what you remember.

You ever been stabbed before? What the fuck do you want from me? Wade's dead.

Your story is all I have.

Oh, man.

All I had was Wade.

You know you have the same tell.

Every time that you're lying, fucking eyebrows go up, Tommy.

I'm going to come back tomorrow morning.

You're going to get some rest.

And then you need to let me help you.

You need to trust me.

And I, in turn, am going to keep you out of jail.

Then whoever tried to kill you, you and me are going to get them first.

Henry Rowland.

Oh, not done with that.

Well, you only got two refills.

Great. Let's get two fresh cups, one for me and one for her.

We're closing soon.

Well, then you'd better get on it, love.

Is that how they treat first responders in this country?

Two refills?

What did that little cow do?

Fly the beans in herself from Colombia?

I'm May.

Erica. I just wanted to apologize for bothering you.

at work earlier, and now it looks like I'm doing it again.

Oh, well.

You know, I'm always working.

You said you just arrived in town?

Yes, I just closed the deal on buying the Holybrook estate.

I've heard it's lovely.

It's a real piece of this town's rum -running history.

A unique part of the river, isn't it?

History, violence, beauty.

So many stories.

And you're new here as well, I take it?

Yeah, I... I don't know, a bit of a fresh start.

Kindred spirits in a riverside diner, I imagine that.

And what brought you here, of all places?

The largest undefended border on the planet has some drawbacks.

A little bit more serious than rum running.

Mm, human trafficking.

Drugs, probably.

A whole lot of drugs.

Coffee?

Fresh. Enjoy.

So you wanted to change. You came to St. Lawrence, and now this is what you do

for fun.

Get served eye rolls and shit coffee.

It's a decent place to get some work done. You know, bad service, less

interruption.

Well, aside from me, of course, I'm not going to bother you any longer.

You're not bothering me.

I'm still going to take my business elsewhere. But if you... Everton wants

actual fun. You should come and check out Holybrook. It's really magnificent.

And I hope it's not too forward.

But you've got nice eyes, Erica.

Ready? No.

No.

I've been thinking about this.

You and Tommy were opening me back in, bringing me back to this island.

Huh? With a wife like yours. With a family.

For who? Tommy Holly?

I mean, after everything.

I don't get it. Well, Pete, you don't have to.

It's just, it's curious, Hank. It's damn curious.

Let me take you home.

No, I want to cut.

Okay, whatever you and Tommy were running.

Some scheme like when we were kids?

What? Well, for me, Tommy'd be dead, and whatever you two cooked up would go

with him.

So, the way I see it, I'm a partner now, and I get a

fucking cut.

Huh?

I'm not playing around!

I said keep quiet!

Yeah, something's quite wrong. I told you to keep quiet. No, no, no. I think

he's dying.

Oh, my God. Not a peep, I said. Not a peep!

Help us! Just help!

Help! Help us!

What is wrong?

I... I... He collapsed. It's asthma, I think.

Wasn't he black?

Fucking run! Run!

Oh, God, Jesus. Shut up. We can't let anyone see us. I told you I couldn't do

it. Wait. Shit.

Don't. What are you doing?

Are you speaking of the girls?

My girls are safe.

Ruby?

Jay?

Jay? Fuck.

Oi! He's your name's Steven!

Drive, drive, drive.

No, you're using me, just like high school. Now, Tommy's in trouble, and

who's useful.

Silly -ass drunk old Pete. Well, screw that. I want in. Pete, calm down. No,

you're fooling me in, or I'm going straight to your daddy -in -law and

him exactly what you're up to. Pete, sit down. No, I want compensation.

I want generous goddamn compensation, or there's going to be big trouble on

this. Hey, Pete, sit down.

Just drive the boat.

You can crash here to me.

My dad won't be in the state to ask questions. He's got a bit of a... He

I think I just want to go home.

Wait.

I gave him my ID.

He has my ID.

They know where I live. Shit.

They know who I am. They know where I live. Shit, shit, shit.

Okay, okay. You can stay with me.

Fuck. We're safe here.

Until we figure something out. Oh, God.

It's okay, Miles.

We'll just stay here at my dad's.

All right, my help?

We're safe.

I'll go wake up my dad before you come in, okay?

Maybe get the car, like, a once -over.

Wipe it for prints.

Okay.

Yeah. Hey, look at me.

We'll be okay.

My dad can actually be kind of fun if he's in the right mood.

Just bring everything in when you're ready, okay?

Tomorrow we hide the car.

I took a... I took a spill.

Did you catch the bad guys?

I always catch the bad guys.

Come on, buddy.

Uh, Ruby?

What?

Look what I found in the trunk.

Hmm, those aren't hockey pads.

Nope.
