- Previously...
- Nobody knows

how to make us better.
- She's spazzing!

- We're the freaks now,
the Twitching Girls of Millwood.

- I am trying to land a job
with Billy Crawford

and the city lawyer.
- If we're not onto something,

then why is someone
following me?

- The contamination's not coming
from any of the four sites.

- The field itself.

- Someone has buried toxic waste
in this field.

You need to tell us
where that container is
going after it's been excavated.

- Hang on!

♪♪♪

- We filed an Access
to Information request

for the environmental records
of Matheson Steel.

It's been ignored. We would
ask that the court compel

Matheson Steel to comply with
their statutory obligations.

- To exonerate Matheson Steel

and its parents company, we're
offering a detailed summary

of our disposal policy.

- A carefully crafted
corporate smokescreen.

I've written dozens of them.
If Matheson Steel

has nothing to hide,
then show us the files.

- There's no proof
that the barrels

taken from the athletic field
belong to my client,

and if Miss Hanley
and Mr. Crawford

would like access
to my client's files,

they can make their allegations
in a statement of claim.

- Councillors, do you have
sufficient evidence

at present to file a lawsuit
against Matheson Steel?

- The barrels were removed

from the field by a company
contracted to Matheson Steel

at the direction
of Ben Matheson.

- I was doing my civic duty.
- Soil samples

taken from the field
show traces of contaminants

including benzene,
chlorine and methyl mercury.

- Chemicals don't have
fingerprints, your honour.

There's no way to trace them
back to my client.

- Perhaps not. But this
particular grouping of chemicals

is consistent with the ones
used in the manufacturing

of steel.
- My own daughter

is one of the girls
with this illness.

If I thought for one second--
- I represent

the Matheson family
in this matter.

Ben's father Henry
regrets that he's

not able to attend,
but on my client's behalf,

I request that the motion
be denied.

- Sustainable waste management

is very costly.
I imagine one could save

upwards of hundreds
of thousands of dollars

taking that waste
and dumping it oneself.

Wouldn't you agree,
Mr. Matheson?

- I'm sorry.

This court denies your request.

If you want to get to discovery,

you need to file suit.

- Our kids are being poisoned!

- They did it to themselves!
- Probably some kind

I'm sure Kookum wants you there.

- If she'd have wanted me there,

she would have asked me herself.

They're hiding something.

- No, they just know
we don't have anything.

Yet.

Whoever ran us off the road

clearly wants
us to stop digging.

- Yeah, we made someone nervous.
- So we find who was driving

the truck, we find that someone.

- Thank you for coming.

- Millwood is my town,

rip itself apart.

We're capable of sorting out
our differences on our own.

Ben has something he'd like
to say to the two of you.

Ben.
- I'm gonna pay to clean up

the athletic field.
Not the company.

Me, personally.

- No.

I can't have people

thinking that I did this.
This is my home.

the mill is. The city accepts.

exactly like high school.
- Come on, you weren't that fat.

- Oh, watch it, Crawford.
I grew into my chubbiness.

- What did Pat Collins

- Well, his alibi for the night

you were run off

and he has a receipt for the
sale of the truck to this place.

Let's see if it's legit.

Hey. You the owner?

- Russ. You guys

here about the truck?
- Wondered if we could

take a look at your records,

ensure that the vehicle
in question was scrapped.

- Too good to get rid of.
Figured I'd fix her up.

She's out back.

- Quite the collection

- Did she hide

My mom and her don't get along,

so apparently we aren't going.

- Sounds like your family
loves Mother's Day

about as much as I do.

Does she live in town?

- Long Grass First Nation.

Why are we looking at
partnerships from 20 years ago?

- Well, because our hydrologist

thinks that's
when the barrels were buried.

We need to find evidence

that links the barrels
to the mill.

You just need a lift out there?
- Yeah.

- I can drive you.

- Yeah. We can work in the car.

- Yeah. Of course.

So...

why partnerships?

- I want to find everybody

that Matheson Steel
has worked with.

Ben Matheson's dad Henry

was in charge then,
so keep an eye out

for that name also.
- On it.

- Why is my gut

still telling me it was Pat
Collins driving that truck?

- It could be the wings.

- Collins was home with his
wife, Brandy. She confirmed it.

- Doesn't he have a record
for domestic assault?

- So he threatens to get rough,
she's gonna say whatever

he wants her to say.
- She does have a part-time job

at the mill.
- That guy's not gonna run

somebody off the road to save
his girl's part-time job.

- He's a foreman at the mill.

- And he's got three kids.

- You got a spare key
to your car?

- Yeah.
- Me too.

- So you sell your truck to a
place you know you'd have access

to it afterward,
give the spare key

to your brother, he steals it.

Nah. Collins doesn't strike me

as the type to be smart enough
to cook up a plan like that.

- Ben might be, though.

I know you don't want
to entertain it, but...

- He coached my high school
hockey team. He was a master

of intimidation on the ice.
- May be time to have a chat

with Tim Collins.
- I'll talk to Ben.

One-on-one. No lawyers.

- Hey. I need your help.

- Old barrels were found
in the athletic field.

Finger's pointing
to Matheson Steel.

- The firm said "no"
on this, Joanna.

I'm asking you.

[How well did you
know Henry Matheson

- Not well. We golfed
together a few times.

- Has the plant ever
had a spill or an accident?

- [That's not exactly
the kind of thing

[you talk about
in the clubhouse.]

But I'll tell you one thing. The
Matheson family singlehandedly
saved that town.

- You always say
"I'll tell you one thing"

when you're
holding something back.

I might've taught you too well.

- When everyone else

was outsourcing to cut down
on labour costs,

the Matheson family was the one
poured everything they had

- Until there was nothing left

and they had to sell
to PNL Steel.

They could've cut corners

[trying to make the deal
more attractive.]

- Are you into your savings
on this thing?

- No.

- [I'm worried

You need to come back home.

Still need a lift

I texted you.

- She's my grandmother.

Your boss?

She's driving me

She's not one of us.

- So, basically what I'm saying

wanna settle

or drown us in paperwork,

for us to move forward.

Lawyer-client privilege
and all that.

- It's exhausting.

- Trying to take the high road
all the time.

- Yeah, well, you're gonna
have to stop doing that

if you wanna be a lawyer.

It was always the high road
with my mom.

She really liked rules.

And she wasn't
great with affection.

Definitely not maternal.

Maybe that's why she left.

- My dad left too.

He left before

the pee was even dry
on the stick.

My mom was so young, you know?

It's just been hard.

- I bet.

- Yeah.

What's your dad like?

- He's great...
most of the time,

you know, when he's...

not trying to out-manoeuvre me.

The problem is I know
all his tells.

- These things he does

that let me know when he's
being less than honest.

- I don't know, like he...
yawns before he says something.

"What'd you get up
to last night, Dad?"

"Oh, you know, I just had
a few drinks at the club."

Or "I'll tell you one thing."

That's another classic.
- Nice.

I'm gonna start looking for
Molly's tells. And yours.

- Oh, God. I've
created a monster.

Are you
stalking me now?

- No.

I wanted to say something.

It just took me a while
to figure it out.

I'm not apologizing.
- Well, that was worth the wait.

- Look, we're sick.
- Yeah, thanks to your dad!

- We don't know that.

But whatever this
turns out to be,

it doesn't change the fact
that we both have it.

And Miss Evans was right.

At the end of the day,

this is who we are.

It doesn't matter
how we got here.

- Last night, I woke up
in the middle of the night.

- No. I had to pee.

And so I got up,

opened the bathroom door

whacked myself

in the head and nearly
knocked myself out.

Put me back on the field, coach!
