I'm coming back, Noah Funk, and when I do,
I will hurt you in every way I know how.
All the charges against the Mennonites have been dropped.
So if you can still find your own badge, I want it on my desk.
I keep my sketches in my room so my dad doesn't realize who's been tagging the walls all over town.
It's working.
Don't ask me how, but this sh*t is now 98.5% pure.
What is going on up there?
Agent O'Reilly, my ass is hanging out the window, and I need your help.
I want to make a trade.
My freedom for the new delivery system.
You come and I will show you how to do this new process.
Nee. You come show me here.
A day after tomorrow, there will be a plane waiting at the airstrip outside of Chatham.
These are my terms.
(eerie music)
(relieved sigh)
What is that?
"V," which stands for?
No, all these notes.
Noah goes here.
Abel goes there.
(Noah sighs.)
These are Bronco's notes.
Mhm.
Where did all this come from?
I don't know.
Na oba!
And now, Voss wants me to come to Mexico.
With the chemist.

Noah.
Hmm?
Uh... times have been hard for the Edentaler in Mexico... drought, crime... which means, uh...
They have to sell everything.
It's unfortunate, but there is plenty of valuable equipment up for auction.
And better they sell to us than take pennies on the dollar from some Auslander auctioneer.
Which is why your uncle and I are going on a trip.
Isaac: You're going to Mexico?
Jo. But only to do our business and then come straight back.
I promise we'll be here for your baptism.
Brooda?
Hmm?
Can I have a word with you, please?
The whole point was to bring Voss here, to get him on the wire here, to arrest him here! Not in Mexico!
He wants to see the process there, in Mexico. He expects me to bring the chemist who thought of the plan. He can't meet that guy!
Oh, so now I'm just another lie of yours?
You're going to go to your death in Mexico, so why not bring your useless Brooda too?
I'm off the dr*gs now.
I know. I know.
I need you, Brooda.
The only way we can do this is together.
We have to trust in God.
That He has a plan.
It's not God I'm worried about.

Huh? Mexico, right? Jackpot!
OK, because of my former boss, Voss knows that I'm on to him.
The good news is, though, he doesn't know that we're a team and that I'm speaking to the D.E.A.
So we just stick with the game plan.
You get him on a wire talking business.
You know he's gonna check us, right?
Voss is not stupid!
He'll assume you are, OK?
Look, I suppose you two are not exactly the people police would hire as criminal informants.
That's right. Because you're not a real policeman, are you?
Just get him on a wire and leave the law to me, OK?
Let's do this.
(engine revving up)
Hello.
I am a good worker.
I can clean for you.
Just for a place to sleep.
I got eight rooms to go. Do those for me, and I won't tell a soul who's in room 5.
You keep the doors locked and tell the children, all of them. You tell them everything.
And you'll need help.
Someone we trust.
Isaac can't do the chores by himself...
We'll manage.

Promise me he'll be baptized.
Noah, I will take care of it.

It takes a lot of courage to do something like this.
No. It's desperation.
Not courage.

Nice to meet you.
And this is Ezekiel?
Nice to meet you, Ezekiel.
Ezekiel does not speak much English.
Right.
Ezekiel has a uncle in Mexico, Jonas Janzen. Lives far away from the colony in Juarez.
Abel: How do you know this?
Social services.
He wants his nephew back and, according to the law, we gotta give him back.
(Abel talks in Low German)
My Brooda stood up to the Epps to save his life.
We all did. You're gonna give him back now?
I appreciate that, but his uncle has no ties to Voss or the drug trade.
OK? And the Epps are still here so he is not out of danger.
Don't worry. I'll watch over him until he gets there.

Voss keeps shifting his operation.
He's opportunistic and unpredictable.
If he has paid off the police, why does he keep moving locations?
Can't pay 'em all off.
I have some friends down there who would love dearly to nail his hide to the wall.
Noticing anything different about your bible?
Oh no, this is not my bible; this is the one Bronco found near the Janzen's car.
There's a listening device and GPS glued on the cover.
The antenna is sewn into the stitching of the spine.
It's voice activated, omnidirectional. When we have what we need, I'll go to Special Ops who'll go to Federales who will hit Eli so hard, there'll be nothing left but his smoking boots.
If something happens to us, uh, who will look after our family?
Listen, if anything happen...
No, I don't want to hear from you, OK? I want to hear from a real policeman.
Policewoman.
Agent.
Agent.
I need you all to realize that this is very dangerous, OK?
But if anyone can get him to talk business, it's you.
What should I get him to say?
Nothing.
Don't try to lead him. Voss is too smart.

Now, he picked you because you are a man of God, a gentle man. So just be that. Be yourself.
Ben, you OK?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down.
What's going on?
How long has she been missing for?
OK. Listen. No, do not go to the police.

Actually, we got you a room, so... if we need you, we'll call you, alright?
Whoa. What are you talking about? This is my case.

I'm not sitting this out, Agent O'Reilly.
You had Voss cornered on the second floor of a farmhouse in a place where people escape in buggies.
So how exactly did he get away?
You weren't there so you don't know.
You know, Voss depends on cops like you to stay in business.
Overconfident and underprepared.
Not nearly as smart or brave as they like to think they are.
If I get another sh*t at taking down Voss, I don't want you going through that door with me.
