I've got to stop!

I wasn't gonna kill you
back in that barn.

You know that, right?

I just wanted to...
I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry, Tom.

I'm not doing so good, am I?

Hell, Tom.

You're gonna get us
out of this one, right?

Right.

We can figure this out!

Can't just let everything
we planned fall apart now.

I can go get help, but...

...it's gonna take a while.

The closest town
is Independence.

We can't show up there together.

We can't.

Somebody's gonna come looking
for that deputy in the barn.

Start asking questions.

I know.

Someone has to take
the fall for this, Shane.

For everything.

It's the only way.

The deputy and I gunned
each other down.

Is that it?

I wish you'd never
came out west, Shane.

Oh...

For family.

Whoa, whoa.

Whoa, boy.

Gus.

Gus.

Oh, my God.

Gus, come on. Come on.

Oh, we're gonna get you
out of here. Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

There's a First Federal
over in Clay...

Tellers are too young.

You want them old
and preferably half-blind.

What about the First National
in Emory?

Uh-uh. Big picture window
out front. No bueno.

Why'd you come out here?

Really?

And don't-- don't tell me
it's to rob banks.

I'm, uh, I'm looking for kin.

Mama told me
I had some out here.

Your mama? Where's she?

She, uh...

Sorry for your loss.

She said, if anything
ever happened to her,

I should come west. Find my pa.

Where'd you grow up, again?

All over.

Lived back east
but moved around a lot.

Not really sure where home is.

He's all torn up.

- What the hell?
- What the hell?

I caught your grand entrance.

You don't look so good, Sheriff.

I need a doctor.

Doctor's not in town,
visiting family.

Then get me Kai.

What the hell happened?

Did you find your brother?

Yeah, I tracked him to my cabin.

He ambushed me,
and he knocked me out.

- Where is he now?
- I don't know.

When I came to, I was tied up.

- Why?
- Because he knew
that I found out the truth.

That he murdered Liam Collins,

and he was gonna kill me.

And, if Gus didn't show up
when he did, then I...

Wait, Gus? Wh...?

Where is Gus?

Someone help! It's Gus.

Someone get the doctor.
The deputy's been shot.

Put him here.

Folks, please, come on.
Give me some room.

Come on, buddy.

You mind?

He's been shot in the shoulder.

- Maybe four or five hours ago.
- Oh, man.

The back of his head's
been injured.

Abby.

Hoyt, water, please.

We need to make bandages.

- There.
- Here's some water.

- There's no exit wound.
- You mean the bullet's
still in there?

- Yeah.
- If you don't get it out...

It's okay. It's okay.

- Hold him down.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. You just
gonna start digging for lead?

- No choice.
- I need another one.

- Stay with us, Gus.
It's okay.
- Gus, we've got you.

- Here, buddy,
this'll help.
- Mm-mm. Mm.

You don't need to suffer.
This is gonna hurt like

- a son of a gun.
- No.

- Hoyt, leave it.
- Hoyt.

It's all right, Gus.
You're going to be okay.

All right, here we go.

- I'm sorry.
- Oh, man.

Stay with us, Gus. Come on.

Come on. Almost there.

Almost there.

I see it.

I know. I know.

- I'm sorry.
- Damn it, Kai.

- Find the damn thing already.
- Shut up, Hoyt.

I got it.

You got it?

Kai, you got it? Abby?

The bleeding won't stop.

I don't know what to...

We need to burn
the wound shut.

- What?
- I've done it before.

- Oh, my God.
- Here, use this.

Thank you.

I'm gonna need to sit down.

- Right here. You got him?
- Got him.

Just hang in there.
You're going to be okay.

Bite down, bite down.
I know. It's okay.

- It's okay.
- I'm sorry, old friend.

The bleeding stopped.

It's okay.

Good job, Kai.

Let me know when he wakes up.

Before anybody else.

Okay?

Abby?

Will you help me
with this dressing?

Yes.

Oh, thank God. Kai.

Whew, that was something else.

Whew!

Hey, hey.

You saved his life.

What did Tom say to you?

You going somewhere?

Looks like you're leaving town.

Kai did a good job on Gus,

but I'm going to Brenham
to get a real doctor.

Are you going to tell me what
really happened out there,

or should I wait for Gus
to wake up and tell

- the whole story?
- Let's hope he pulls through.

No thanks to you.

Pardon me,

it was your brother
who shot Gus, is that right?

You know, it's funny,

your family really seems to
enjoy breaking the law,

which is strange,
given that you're the sheriff.

That is, unless, God forbid,
you're helping them.

That failed attempt at a coup
on the Town Council?

Poisoning Nate,
threatening my life.

You had to know I was going
to find out about that one.

Although I will say,
cutting a deal with
the Pinkertons is impressive.

cutting a deal with
the Pinkertons is impressive.

They wanted you dead.

Did you know about that?

I talked to your contact, Ethan.

And he told me about you.

The Pinkertons have a lot
to gain with the railroad

and working with my family,

so they offered
to take care of you.

And that didn't mean
sending you away,

again.

So I protected you.
I saved your life.

Why?

Progress.

This is what
it looks like, Kate.

Not a woman wearing
a man's suit,

acting like
something they're not.

This.

I build cities

so people like you can sing
their little songs in them.

You don't build cities, Tom.

Your family does.

You work for them like a chump.

Don't act like you're
some kind of savior.

You don't build, Tom.

You destroy.

Just like Eli.

And your brother.

'Cause that's what
really happened out there,

isn't it?

Shane saved you, didn't he?

And what did you do?

You turned around,
and you kill him.

Tom, you killed your brother.

- Stop.
- And, you know,
I've got to ask myself,

- is there anyone that you're
not willing to kill?
- Stop!

You son of a bitch!

You know,
I got to be honest with you,

I was really hoping
that you would try.

Augustus.

Thank God. You're safe.
It's okay.

Yeah, I knew he'd pull through.

Just get your rest, all right?
We can talk later.

We should change his dressing.

All right.

Handcuffs? What the hell?

Tom had the same bruising
on his wrist.

You saying Gus
tried to handcuff the sheriff?

He never trusted him.

That's why he went
to the Davidson ranch.

What are you saying, Abby?

Block all the roads out of town.

Wagons, carts,
whatever you can find.

- Kai, can you stay with Gus?
- Yeah, of course.

What're you gonna do?

Something I should've done
a long time ago.

How many more shots you got in
that little purse gun of yours?

I don't know.
Show me your handsome face.

We'll find out together.

- Give up, Sheriff!
- Go inside.

Calian!

You son of a bitch.

Got nowhere else to run,
Sheriff!

Come on!

Face me like a man!

Stop hiding, Tom.

Let's see who's got
what it takes to finish the job.

Ah! Damn it!

Hoyt!

Stay inside!

Get down.

These vigilantes
are trying to kill me!

You gonna let them
take our town?

The sheriff is a murderer!

He killed Liam Collins.

He framed Griffin
for his crimes.

He poisoned Nathaniel Hagan!

He's an imposter.

He's lied to you.
He's not fit to wear the badge.

Kai! Kai, help me,
get me a damn horse!

Kai!

You're pretty good
with that rifle, Abby!

Throw down your guns
and give up, Tom.

Doesn't have to end like this.

I think it does.

Are you ready?

You should've killed me
when you had the chance.

Do you think he can hear us?

We gonna let him bleed out?

We have to keep him alive.

Tom.

Yeah, but why are we doing
all this?

If he dies, that's too easy.

He should pay for what he did.

You should've just let me die.

For the record,
we didn't vote on it.

I need to speak with him.

Alone.

So, where do we begin?

Confess.

To all of it.

There's more to talk about,
and we both know it.

Tom, why did you do all of this?

Because of loyalty.

To my Aunt Teresa.

She saved me

and she gave me purpose.

She saved you.

How?

I was in...

...an institution.

For killing a man,
defending my brother.

Hell doesn't even describe
what it was like in there.

I saw things,

and I did things to get by.

And if I would have stayed
in there any longer,

I would have lost myself.

My aunt got me out.

And I owe her my life.

She made you a monster.

Not everyone is like you, Abby.

Some of us can't just
bury the past and start over.

You say that like you know me.

I think we both know that I do.

That night
you were playing piano

at Hagan's,

I saw you.

Those demons.

And you found a way
to deal with yours.

And you're helping me
deal with mine.

Not all of them.

That song.

When I first arrived,
Augustus was whistling a song.

He said he learned it from you.

How did you know it?

What do you think's
going on in there?

I'd be lying to you if I said
I wasn't trying

- to figure it out myself.
- What are you
even doing here, Gus?

Why don't you get some rest?

There ain't no way in hell
I'm missing this.

Give me a minute.

All right.

Caught him, huh?

More of a group effort.

Learning that being the lone
wolf ain't always the way.

Look, kid, I got to ask.

You mentioned
looking for your pa.

And, you know, after everything
that happened around here,

I got to know...

It's not you.

Huh.

Well, who is he then?

I don't know.

Gathered he has brown eyes.

Wealthy family.
They, uh, met back east,

and he came out here after.

You really thought it was you?

Well, I'd be lying if I said

I wasn't
sweating bullets wondering.

But in the back of my brain,

I knew you were
too ugly to be a kid of mine.

I need answers, Tom.

The song.

Do you remember

when you first played it?

The night you killed my husband.

Mary Abigail McKenzie Collins.

You've known who I am
the whole time, haven't you?

You taught me to dream
with my eyes open.

My book.

At the train station,
it was left open.

You were the dream to me, Abby.

And I hadn't felt that way
for years.

Because you reminded me
of someone.

We were young.

And we wanted to start a family.

Tom, you should have
run away with her.

You could have started
a new life. None of this...

But I found you.

And I had a chance
to save you instead.

You didn't.

Tom, if you...

...if you care for me...

...you'll tell me the truth.

Did you kill Liam?

Why does this matter?

He was everything
that you detest.

He was a liar,
he was corrupt, he was weak.

He kept everything from you.

And how is that any different
than what you've done?

Because I brought you in

and I gave you purpose,

and we could've made
something of this place.

I will make it something.

Just not what you intended.

First, you have to answer
for what you did.

You know, your family will do
everything in their power

to keep the truth
from being exposed.

I can't even testify
anymore because I...

Because of us.

Because I doubted myself.

And even if I were to testify

to Liam's murder and everything
that your family has done,

they would find a way
to discredit me.

You could have killed me
that night.

But you didn't.

Why?

I had been...

...following you for days.

And I was questioning
what to do.

And what did they
tell you to do?

To kill you.

What did you do?
What happened?

Liam wasn't gonna make it
after the first shot.

So I ended his suffering.

Shane wasn't close
enough to see you,

so all I had to do was make it
look like I finished the job.

And I knew you would make it.

You can end this, Tom.

Will you testify?

To all of it?

If it keeps you safe.

Did he confess?

Yeah.

Come on.

Rangers are here.

Rangers?

For what?

Take you to Austin
so you can stand trial.

Abby didn't want to have
a trial in town?

That didn't go so well
last time.

Facts are on our side.

And judge in Austin
is impartial. Seen to it myself.

Looks like you finally got
to put that sheriff's badge on,

Augustus.

It's funny.

Where was that Pax Romana
of yours when you shot me?

What was it all for?

Family?

Is that what you tell yourself

while your brother lies dead
in a field?

Abby.

Sure you don't want to kill me?

End it right here, right now?

As much as I would love
to see you writhe in pain...

...I'd rather see you squirm.

Every day in that courtroom.

And I will be there.

Until you hang.

Is that what Liam
would want for you?

Liam isn't here anymore,

thanks to you.

But I am.

And it's what I want.

I had no choice.

Yes, you did.

It's times like this
I really wish

I learned how to ride a horse.

We've got to catch up
to that wagon.

There's no telling
how many other towns

were painted
with that same message.

You two, ride up over the ridge

and get ahead of the stagecoach.

Split up
and come from both sides.

I killed a man
with that same tattoo.

Whoa.

Bastard's gone.

Sent word to every
telegraph office in Texas.

Augustus.

We'll find him.

You want to walk over
to Sung's with me?

Everyone's waiting.

I'll meet you over there.

All right.

Where's the man of the hour?

Lifted a bottle of Hagan's
best whiskey for him.

I don't think I've ever seen
the man drink,

except copious amounts of water.

I'll accept this on his behalf.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Well done.

Not bad, Kate.

Whoa.

You missed your own party,

Sheriff.

The last sheriff soured
the coronation for me.

Speaking of,

what's going on
with the new chief?

He settled on a path forward
for the tribe?

He still wants war.

The elders have called
for a meeting.

You have allies here.

No one powerful enough
to stop the railroad.

Not anymore.

Every problem is easier
to see under the sun.

For tonight, we have this.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You left this at the restaurant.

Didn't want it to go to waste.

You want to help me finish it?

I only did what I did
to survive.

I should've just told you.

About being a Pinkerton,
I should.

I should've just told you
from the beginning.

And after all this,
I'm right back at Hagan's.

Can you believe
the bastard left it to me?

You own it?

Hagan snuck a clause
into the deed:

in the untimely death
or absence of Tom Davidson,

everything goes to me.

What are you going to do
now that you're in charge?

I want to do more shows.

But...

...only if I can do them
with you.

So, what do you say?

Partners.

Partners.

♪ Ain't all right ♪

♪ The hardness of my head... ♪

So, you gonna stay?

- In Independence?
- Oh.

Actually, I couldn't imagine
being anywhere else.

This town, these people,

you, Hoyt Rawlins,

have grown on me.

This is the part
where Kate would say...

"like a fungus."

Come here.

Thank you.

For everything you've done.

You've become
one of my most reliable friends.

Well, I don't hear that a lot.

What about you, hmm?

Will you stay?

This is the longest
I've been in town since,

well, I was a kid.

Used to getting that itch,
you know?

Look for some new trouble
to get into.

Guess I scratched it.

Or maybe you just found
something here.

Funny thing is,

for a few hours today...

...I thought I was Matthew's pa.

And, uh,

I kind of didn't mind it.

- Matthew's father?
- Yeah.

Hoyt, that's a bit of a stretch.

Well, hold on, now.

The kid is 15,
so, if you do the math,

that means it could be
Jocelyn in the pigpen,

Annie in the cathedral,

- Evelyn in the leather tannery.
- All right, I get

it's physically possible.

But...

would you actually consider
being a father?

With Lucia?

I don't know about that.

I mean, when we're hot,
we're hot.

But when we're cold...

Point is, I just--

I never thought
I'd even consider it.

Seems like you've
finally grown up.

Oh, hell, Abby.

Now I got to go in there
and get drunk,

gamble, make some
really bad decisions

that wind me
at the Doves by sunup.

Hoyt!

Been looking for you.

Evening, Miss Walker.

May I say,
your hair is so pretty.

It reminds me of a...

of a weasel's pelt.

Matthew, uh, in the future,

perhaps don't refer
to the object of your affection

as a rodent.

Yes, ma'am.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I've got some poker winnings

- burning a hole in my pocket.
- Mm.

Hey.

That damn kid picked my pocket.

Poker winnings, my ass.

He's gonna use my money
at the Doves.

Hey!

Two can play at that game, Rawlins.

♪ But it's still all right. ♪

Abby.

I remember when you gave me this
for the first time.

And now here you are.

It's good to see you, Dad.
