- [PHONE BUZZES]
- COLTER: Hello.

TEDDI: Where are you right now?

Right now I am on my way
to South Dakota.

Gonna do a little camping,
do a little fishing.

VELMA: Good for you, Colter.

It is important to take time
for yourself.

You have a job for me, don't you?

St. Louis, Missouri. $20,000 reward

to find a witness who saw a m*rder.

Offered by Stephanie Porter,


She's 16 years old

and she's offering a $20,000 reward?

She started a fundraising web page

to raise money for her father's appeal.

I find it really sweet, actually.

TEDDI: Her father Clay Porter

was convicted of murdering

his business partner,
a man named Avery Engram.

Got 30 years.

You mentioned something
about a, uh, missing witness?

Stephanie says that
there's somebody out there

who could help with her father's case,

but there's no proof
they actually exist.

It might just be a sweet kid

who wants to believe
that her father is someone

other than who he is.

Yeah, okay, all right, you got me.

South Dakota can wait.
Let's set up a meeting.

Maybe Reenie could consult?
Lots of ins and outs

with this one already
having been investigated

and tried before a jury...

Okay, yeah, I'll leave it to you
to figure out the split.

Call you when I'm in St. Louis.

STEPHANIE: That's me and my dad.

That's all of us in Florida
for spring break.

And that's his business partner Avery.

See? They were friends.

I just know my dad didn't k*ll him.

I don't care what anybody
says. He wouldn't lie to me.

Mrs. Porter, what do you think?

Please. Deborah.

And I admire my daughter's passion,

but I am worried that you're
not going to find anything.

Mom, he didn't do it,

and you said it yourself.

The investigation his legal
team did wasn't great.

DEBORAH: Of course he didn't.

And yes. I think Clay's public defender

had limited resources.

But it's been a year.

There's been a trial.

No one has come forward, and I think

that maybe we did the best we could.

I think Mr. Shaw can help us.

You mentioned a missing witness?

Someone sent me an anonymous message

on my fundraising page. Here.

Take a look.

"There's a witness that knows
your father is innocent."

- You have no idea who sent this?
- We don't.

That's what you do, isn't it?

- Find missing people?
- I do.

This is our only chance
to save his life.

DEBORAH: I want to believe
there's a witness

out there that can exonerate him, too.

With all my heart, I do.

But I worry that we've exhausted

every avenue and...

I just want to do whatever's
best for Stephanie.

It's hard to...

hear things about your father,
about your husband

that you feel might not be true.

I know something about that.

My father had a lot of secrets.

It was very hard on my mother.

- It was very hard on all of us.
- So...

... you're taking the job.

Right, Mr. Shaw?

Let me see what I can find out
about that witness.

REENIE: You want my opinion?

Clay Porter is guilty, end of story.

But what about him maintaining
his innocence?

Colter, you may want
to sit down for this.

But, um, people who m*rder

often also lie.

- [SCOFFS] Yeah, what if he's not lying?
- Based on what?

Based on the fact that no
one saw Clay k*ll anyone.

Okay. Let's review the facts,
shall we? Come.

Come, come, come.

Okay, so...

Clay Porter and Avery Engram

ran a business together,
an asbestos removal company.

Homeowners move out
while the work is done.

On the night of the m*rder,
Clay returns to a home

where they're working,
and guess what he finds.

His business partner Avery
running an illegal poker game

inside the clients' house. Yes, I know.

Except he doesn't just find it.

Porter blows his top.

You've got... count 'em... one, two,

three, four people
who independently witnessed

Porter hit Avery.

Threatened to k*ll him, and then, oh,

lo and behold, the coroner reports

that Avery was dead due

to blunt force trauma to the head

an hour after his fight with Clay.

I mean, this is
what you call a slam dunk.

No one saw him k*ll anyone.

No, but his attorney never found

any other witnesses.

I mean, you're the probabilities
guy, you tell me,

what are the chances that Clay Porter

is actually innocent, hmm?

Low, very low.

- But I made a promise to his daughter.
- Colter.

You find missing stuff for reward money.

You don't exonerate convicted murderers.

Reenie, what's missing is the witness.

Oh, I get it. This is personal.

Look, I haven't forgotten what
you told me about your brother

- and how he...
- Okay, that's...

Come on, Reenie.

You like this, huh?

You kind of like it.

Just admit it, you like helping people.

It beats filing briefs. And...

yeah, I kind of like this.

Okay, and there you have it.

And the coffee's good.

So, okay, therapy session over?

What's next?

What's next is,
I go talk to Clay Porter.

- Synced and corrected by actumaxime -
- www.addic7ed.com -

CLAY: I knew she was
raising money online.

Said it was to help pay
for a better investigation.

You really think there's a witness?

That's why I'm here talking to you.

Let's start with what happened
between you and Avery Engram.

I did not k*ll Avery.

What happened the night of the m*rder?

I go to check on this big job we have.

House was all wrapped,
ready for removal.

I go in,

and there's Avery running a poker game.

Like not a friendly game.

In a house that we're
supposed to do a job in.

That made you mad.

So mad you wanted to k*ll him?

No, no, I mean, look,
I lost my temper, I admit that.

And I said all kinds of crazy stuff,

but it was just words.

You were mad that he was

cutting you out of the poker winnings?

Hell no, man.

That is not who I am.

Look, Avery had his side hustle.

But that night he crossed the line.

It put the business in danger.

And I busted my ass off

to build this business, and
there he goes behind my back.

Avery was always up to something.

Getting mixed up in all
sorts of shady stuff.

Look, he stayed in his lane

and we were cool.

But that night?

Hell, he messed up.

And he knew it, too.

Do you think he got mixed up
with the wrong crowd,

- that's what got him k*lled?
- I don't know.

It's possible, though.

He was running
with some pretty heavy cats.

And what do you know
about this mysterious witness?

I got no clue.

I thought everybody left.

Me and Avery talked it out,
and he promised he'd do better.

- And then what, what'd you do?
- I went home.

Left Avery to clean things up.

Next morning, the cops rolled up and...

I'm still here.

Now, if you're lying,
you are gonna break

your daughter's heart.
She's never gonna recover.

I would never do anything to hurt her.

Never. I swear to you, I'm innocent.

If there's a witness out there,
I'll find 'em.

COLTER: Normally I'd ask Bobby
to help me

on this one, but he's helping
his mother move

into a retirement home in Palm Beach,

so he's gone for the week.

Yeah, we will not bother him
unless we have to.

The anonymous message sent
to Stephanie's fundraiser page

came from a burner phone.

Same burner phone received

a message yesterday.

"Tomorrow night. Ante at 8:00.

"12th and White Oak.
Enter through parking garage.

Gold coin."

Sounds like a poker game.

Guessing that "gold coin" is some sort

- of token or password to get in.
- [BREATHES DEEPLY]

I'll figure something out.

I'm gonna need you to make a call for me

tonight about 8:00.

TEDDI: All right.

[MAN MUTTERS]

[DOOR OPENS]

Oh, man, feeling lucky tonight?

- What the hell, man?
- Yeah, I love, I love poker, man.

I... I can't wait to get in there.

Feeling lucky.

Private party, invite only.

MAN: Raise 200.

MAN 2: Fold.

Action right out the gate, huh?

Let's make a mess.

Bet a grand.

- Out.
- Raise to two.

Burn and turn.

Check.

You know what? I'm gonna go all in.

- Oh, it's getting hot in here, boys.
- [OTHERS MURMURING]

- Really?
- Really.

Yeah, really, you had that
with trip-fours.

Right? Six percent chance
of hitting, of course you did.

Question is, what do I have?

STP GUY: You know what I'm thinking?

You got nothing.

[LAUGHS] Maybe. Maybe.

Of course, maybe I have pocket queens,

filled them with fours on the turn.

You don't know what to think right now.

UNIFORM: Hands up! On your feet!

Step away from the table!

- Freeze!
- [OVERLAPPING SHOUTING]

[HANDCUFFS CLICKING]

[REENIE CLEARS THROAT] Thank you.

Well, thanks for bailing me out again.

I'm starting to think you like
some part of this.

Either jail or...

me coming to the rescue.

- Maybe a little of both.
- [CHUCKLES]

Here's what I don't understand.

Teddi and Velma call me to bail you out

but then ask me to wait
a couple of hours

because you hadn't
actually been arrested yet?

Well, I needed time alone
with the other players

so I had us all arrested,

see if any of them were
the mystery witness.

REENIE: And did it work?

- Any of those guys cross with Clay?
- Not yet.

Just give me a, um, give me a minute.

Wait for me outside, okay?

Please? Just give me a minute.

[CHUCKLES] Let me guess.

You're a cop, got the game busted.

I'm not a cop.

The only reason I got out of here

is because I have a really good lawyer.

Then what are you still doing here?

Think maybe you can help me.

Define help.

In this case...

witness to a m*rder.

No idea what you're talking about.

You sent an anonymous message.

Clay Porter?

He's in prison for k*lling
his business partner.

And either you know
something about a witness,

or you enjoy jerking people around.

How'd you know it was me?

Well, it had to have been
one of the players

that was invited to that game.

I spent two hours in the cell
with the other guys.

It became pretty obvious it wasn't them.

But they keep women in
a different holding cell,

so process of elimination.

Now, I'm hoping that you can
make good on that message

and help an innocent man
get out of prison.

Look, I don't know
why I sent that message.

I don't want to get involved.

Could it be because
you're a good person?

So you really did all this
just to find a witness?

- You're really not a cop?
- No.

Who's the witness?

[SIGHS]

A girl named Mallory.

Don't know her last name,
just played poker with her some.

We were both there
the night of the m*rder.

- Well, what did she see?
- [SIGHS]

After Clay showed up and fought
with Avery, we all split.

She said she stuck around.

She went back inside to help
Avery clean up or whatever.

Said she was in a backroom,
some guy showed up

- and k*lled Avery.
- Did she give you a name?

No. And I didn't ask.

Mallory said the k*ller
got a look at her,

but she got away.

And that's why she's been hiding out.

On the run ever since.

Whoever k*lled Avery is still after her.

She knows if she goes
to the cops, she's dead.

Hey. Got a lead on our mystery witness.

- Name?
- Mallory.

She went back inside the house,
saw the m*rder*r.

Don't suppose you have an address.

No. I'm gonna talk to Clay,

see if he remembers anything
about this Mallory woman.

Well, you're going to
need me for that, too.

I am?

Yeah, you're gonna want
a private conference room.

- Attorney/client privilege.
- Bingo.

Sometimes I think you're actually

learning something from me, Colter.

[DOOR BUZZES]

Who's Mallory?

From the poker game,
night of the m*rder?

Don't speak yet. Give me a dollar.

I don't have a dollar.

Colter. Give him a dollar to give to me.

You really need
all these legal theatrics?

Half of law practice is theatrics.

It's called procedure.

Great. Now I'm officially your lawyer

and this conversation is privileged.

Mallory, the girl Avery was seeing?

She was Avery's girlfriend?

COLTER: She witnessed the m*rder.

Well, if she saw who k*lled Avery,

how come she hasn't stepped forward?

'Cause the k*ller saw her face.

You said it yourself,

Avery was mixed up with some bad dudes.

The only way I can help you
and protect Mallory

is if I find her.

I only met her once when she
picked up Avery from a jobsite.

- What was she driving?
- A muscle car.

Pretty sure it was a Dodge Challenger,

about five years old, green.

- This is good, right?
- It's a start.

Hey, uh, before you go,

is Stephanie doing okay?

She misses her dad.

Wants him home.

Let us get to work on this.

- [KNOCKS]
- [DOOR BUZZES]

Hey. Any luck finding Mallory?

TEDDI: 2017 Dodge Challenger,
Kelly green,

registered to a Mallory Banks.

VELMA: Looks like she went off
the grid right after the m*rder.

She left her job, stopped
paying the rent. Poof, gone.

She's on the run.
I doubt she kept the car.

VELMA: You are correct.

TEDDI: The Challenger was sold for cash

at McCabe's Car Zone
outside of Kansas City.

Can be there in four hours.

[GRUNTING]

- [PANTING]
- [ALARM BLARING]

[MONITORS BEEPING STEADILY]

- [KNOCKING]
- How's he doing?

I told Stephanie she had to stay away.

I don't want her to see him like this.

One of the guards said

you and a lawyer visited him.

Did you find something?

Avery had a girlfriend,

saw everything that happened that night,

possibly in Kansas City,

knows your husband is innocent.

There's a real witness
out there for me to find.

But this happened to him
because of your investigation.

Didn't it?

- Possibly.
- But why?

Why try to k*ll Clay?

Because whoever k*lled Avery

doesn't want the truth to come out.

The only way we can make sure

your husband is safe

is if we prove his innocence.

I got to get to Kansas City.

Please find that witness.

I'll do whatever I can.

Yeah, I heard about
what happened with Clay.

It's... It's awful.

You client was shivved
in a prison library.

You need to request inmate
protective custody for him.

- Of course, I'll file a motion right away.
- Great.

Unless you want to, you're...

kind of his lawyer now, right?

- Excuse me?
- Oh, I just...

I got a message earlier

from a friend of mine
down at the prison,

said some woman showed up
claiming to be Clay's lawyer.

- I... I assume that was you.
- That's right.

Is that... Is there a problem?

No, not at all.

Barely have the bandwidth to keep up.

Not enough time, money or manpower

in a public defender's office.

Well, then I assume that
we're on the same page

and that we both want Clay Porter

to have every chance
at a successful appeal.

Are you referring to the magical
witness in Kansas City?

- How did you know about that?
- [SIGHS]

[SIGHS]

Clay's daughter, Stephanie,
emails me incessantly.

Thinks if we just look harder
or pay for investigators,

we'll find new evidence.

I know about this, um,
reward hunter she hired,

uh, Colter Shaw I believe his name is?

She says that he found
this witness in Kansas City,

told me to get the paperwork ready,

because he's on his way there now.

- I feel for her.
- But you don't believe her.

No one would be happier than me
if this witness were real.

But we turned over every
stone and found nothing

that pointed to anything other

than Clay Porter being the m*rder*r.

I will be in touch if there
are any new developments.

And you'll do the same?

It's important that
I'm kept in the loop in case

you and Mr. Shaw manage
to actually find this witness.

Yeah. I can probably do that.

- Well...
- Okay.

Thank you, Mr. Loutreau.

- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- RICO: Hold on, I'll call you back.

- Howdy.
- Howdy.

I'm Rico McCabe.

You, uh, buying or selling?

You do both here, right?

You buy, fix and flip, I'm guessing?

You know it.

- Just finished with this baby.
- Ooh.

Supercharged V8,
off-road 20-inch wheels.

And it's a skirt magnet too,
huh, you know what I mean?

Is that right?

It's a skirt magnet? Oh.

Uh, silicone sealant throughout.

Mm-hmm.

It'll handle any weather
that comes your way.

Pretty nice. Pretty nice.

I was actually inquiring
about a different car, though.



You flipped it a couple months back.

Nothing I can do about that.

If it's sold, it's sold.

It's just really important
that I talk to the person

who sold you that car.

Yeah, well, unless you got
a badge or a warrant,

I think we're about done.

A man's life is at stake, sir.

- Please.
- Take a hike.

- In you go.
- Hey, hey!

- Son of a...
- Couple minutes.

Just be a second.

Hey! [MUFFLED YELLING]

[MUFFLED]: Hey, where are you going?
Come back here!

[SIGHS] You may have
saved a man's life today.

Good job.

[GRUNTS]

Yeah, I got the address for Mallory.

I'm here now.

You talk to Clay's lawyer?

REENIE: Yeah. Just got back to my hotel.

Talked to his lawyer, Grant Loutreau.

Said he'd file a request
for inmate protective custody.

Get Clay some protection.

Okay. Great.

Yeah. I guess so.

It's just, I have
a bad feeling about this.

What's up?

Well, Loutreau knows
you're in Kansas City

to find Mallory.

Stephanie told him.

And now, suddenly this case is
a priority for him?

And you think that's a bad thing?

Not necessarily. I just...

I don't like when people
know your name, Colter,

or who you're trying to find,

especially if someone is after Mallory.

It makes me nervous, so...

maybe I should call the KCPD,
make sure you have backup.

No. Mallory might run.

It's best if I find her first.

All right, just... be careful.

This isn't the kind of job...

That I normally take. Yeah.

I know. I'll be fine.

Hey, Reenie, I got to go.

Mallory just got home.

[SNIFFLES]

COLTER: Mallory.

Hi. I'm Colter Shaw.

How do you know my name?

I'm not here to hurt you.

Just want to talk to you
about Clay Porter.

[WATER DRIPPING]

Who sent you looking for me?

I'm working with Clay Porter's family.

That sounds like a lie to me.

You're gonna tell me how you found me,

or Uncle Max here
is gonna b*at you to death.

And then, I'm gonna grab my shovel

- and dig your grave in my backyard.
- Leila Kent.

You used to play poker with her, right?

Was there that night Avery was m*rder*d.

You told her everything
that happened that night, right?

Everything you saw.

She's been sending anonymous messages

to Clay Porter's daughter.

- Can you prove it?
- Yeah.

Yeah, my phone. It's...

My left front pocket.

You'll see a number
for Stephanie Porter.

It's Clay's daughter.

Call her yourself, ask her.

I'm just trying to help her
get her father out of prison.

What do you want me to do, Mal?

Give me the phone.

If you're lying,

Uncle Max goes to work.

Call her yourself. Ask her.

Check the call log.

[PHONE CLICKS]

This morning,

someone tried to k*ll Clay in prison.

How is that my problem?

Because whoever's responsible
knows I'm looking for you.

And if I can find you,

he sure as hell can find you, too.

And whether they k*ll Clay first or you,

it doesn't matter to them.

In fact, there's a 95% chance

they're on their way here right now.

Who are you so afraid of?

Caesar Ashford. [MALLORY CLEARS THROAT]

He's the one who k*lled Avery.

I mean, I was there.

I was in the back, helping
clean up after the game.

And then... [SCOFFS]

I heard Caesar come in,
and he was pissed.

- So you hid?
- Yeah.

But I could still see them
in the other room.

Tell me what you saw.

[STAMMERS]

Caesar started accusing Avery
of stealing money,

and Avery tried to explain,

and then he... he just...

You know, he grabbed him
and smashed his head

into a desk again and again.

How'd you get out of there?

MALLORY: I ran out another door.

Got to my car as Caesar was
coming out the front,

and he got a good look at me
as I drove off.

He's just not the type of guy
that you testify against

and live to tell about it.

You think Caesar's on his way here?

Yeah. I do.

You got to make a choice.

What are her options?

Well, you could keep running,

looking over your shoulder
the rest of your life.

Or I go with you and tell the cops

Caesar k*lled Avery.

Just hope Caesar doesn't k*ll me first.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

You have my word.

What do you think?

I spend every moment
of every day worrying about you.

I don't think you'll have
a better chance than this.

Only you can end this for you
and for Clay,

but it's got to be your decision.

What do you want to do?

[OVER PHONE]: I got her... the witness.

I'm taking her to St. Louis first.

The job is done, Colter.

You did your part.

Collect the reward.

I promised I'd keep her safe.

VELMA [STAMMERS]: From whom?

Caesar Ashford.

He's the one who k*lled Avery, not Clay.

- [TYPING]
- Oh... Yikes.

This guy looks like bad news.

Okay, five years for aggravated as*ault

and armed robbery in Knoxville.

Domestic v*olence.

We've got gambling.

He was questioned in connection
with three murders

in the St. Louis area,

but nobody would testify against him.

And she's been running from him
ever since.

All right. I'll share this with Reenie.

All right.

- [MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY ON RADIO]
- How'd you get into poker?

Never really saw myself
driving kids to Little League,

or baking brownies for some
husband's office party.

Just wanted a life with
more excitement, I guess.

Sounds like you found that.

[SCOFFS] Yeah, baking brownies
sounds pretty good

right about now.

I'll get you out of this.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[ENGINE REVVING]

[TIRES SCREECH]

- [GROANS]
- [GASPS]

What are you doing?

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[STEAM HISSING]

- Reenie.
- I think you're in danger.

Yeah, I got that.

Caesar found us, not sure how,

but I took care of it.

I think I know who tipped him
off to you and Mallory.

- It was Loutreau.
- Clay's lawyer?

That's the one. I went to
the courthouse to look into

this Caesar Ashford guy
you texted me about,

and I came across a drug charge

against some local goon that
used to worked with Ashford.

And get this,

Loutreau appears to be Caesar's lawyer.

So, Loutreau threw Clay's case

so that no one would go after Caesar

for the m*rder of Avery.

Loutreau must've told Caesar
about the witness.

I knew that there was
something off about this guy.

I just knew it.

Get in contact with the A.D.A.

Tell him we're on our way back
right now,

and get protection detail for Mallory.

That's my next call. Okay. [GASPS]

- Oh. Reenie?
- [LINE BEEPING]

You've been following me, haven't you?

You creep.

Sorry, Ms. Greene,

- but you need to come with me.
- [GRUNTS]

[LINE RINGING]

[LINE BEEPS]

- She's not answering. Something's wro...
- [PHONE VIBRATES]

- Reenie?
- LOUTREAU: Colter Shaw.

Pleasure to make your acquaintance.

We have ourselves a bit of a conundrum.

Say hello to your friend.

COLTER: Reenie? Reenie?

Don't listen to this wacko,

- Colter.
- If anything happens to her...

LOUTREAU: Let's not muck this up with

feelings, here are the facts.

I have something you want
and you have something I want.

All the pieces we need for a trade.

- You don't want to do this.
- Let me stop you there.

If you ever want to see Reenie alive,

you will do what I tell you.

You call the cops and she dies.

Let's talk this through.
We can come to a solution.

Oh, we will,
when you bring Mallory to me.

I'm not gonna do that.

When you change your mind,
there's a warehouse.

South end of the Archway Riverport,

off Hickory and 8th Avenue, top floor.

I'll call you with further
instructions when you get there.

- [LINE BEEPS]
- What is it?

He said to go to the warehouse

and that he would call me
when I got there.

How's he gonna know when I'm there?

He must be tracking my location.

He has Reenie's phone.

He's tracking me with her phone.

He knows my location.

What should we...? We should
throw your phone out the window.

No. No, no, no.

I want him to think he's a step ahead.

That's how we tip the cards
in our favor.

What's your plan?

You're gonna give me up, aren't you?
[LAUGHS, SIGHS]

Oh, I knew this was gonna get me k*lled.

It's not gonna happen.

Okay. Where are we going?

We're going to the meet location.

I have to save her.

They're gonna k*ll me
as soon as they see me.

They're gonna try.

I know I've asked a lot of you.

You got to trust me.

- I can get us all out of this.
- Okay.

I sure hope so.

Is this your thing?

A mob lawyer?

A pawn for Caesar?

I guess it didn't bother you

to let Clay Porter be sent
to prison for m*rder

even though you knew he was innocent.

Yeah. I thought he was guilty.

At least at first.

All the evidence pointed to Clay.

But then you found out
about the witness.

I'd defended one
of Caesar's guys before.

I got the Porter case, and

Caesar gave me 20 grand.

Caesar Ashford is looking
at life in prison,

and you're gonna join him.

Unless you cut your own deal.

You can still do the right thing.

What are you talking about?

Nothing really.

[GROANS]

Just let me go.

There's... there's still time
to call this thing off,

for both of you.

Okay, I could help you make a deal.

[MUFFLED GROANING]

[PANTING]

- [GROANS]
- I thought you should know

I've decided to k*ll you no matter what.

[GROANING]

COLTER: Remember, they know we're here.

Open your phone and give it to me.

Okay.

LOUTREAU: They're inside.

- At the front.
- Good.

Let's go get our girl

and end this.

Let's just hope your friend
doesn't decide to play hero.

[WHIMPERS]

COLTER: Call your phone from mine.

When he calls my phone,

I want you to answer. Don't say a word.

- Just merge the call, okay?
- Okay.

Then, you're gonna go hide

- right over there. Do you see that?
- Yeah.

Okay. Great. Here.

Take this with you in case you need it.

Point and sh**t, okay?

- Where are you going?
- Just do what I told you.

- Okay?
- Yeah.

- [PHONE RINGING]
- COLTER: Still with me? You okay?

Stay hidden. When he realizes

that we're not here, he's gonna
circle back around to the front.

And when he does,
I'll be waiting for him.

- [PHONE BEEPING]
- Crap. He's calling.

Deep breath.

Answer the call. Don't say a word.

Just merge the call with me.
Put the phone down

and hide where I told you.

- COLTER: Loutreau.
- Welcome, Colter. Looking forward

to seeing you in person.

COLTER: I'm here now. What next?

Walk straight ahead
towards the emergency exit.

We'll meet you there.

Since you know where I'm at,

why don't you come to me?

I want to see Reenie first.
Proof of life.

Fine. We do it your way.

[GROANS SOFTLY]

[GROANS SOFTLY]

They should be right here.

Damn it.

[METALLIC CLANK]

There you are.

- [g*nsh*t]
- [GASPS]

[g*nshots]

[g*nshots CONTINUE]

[GRUNTS]

- [BOTH GRUNTING]
- [LOUTREAU GROANS]

Reenie?

- You okay?
- Yeah. [SIGHS]

Come here.

[GROANS] Oh, God.

- Out the door, that way. Go, go, go.
- Yeah? Yeah?

I'm fine.

[GROANS, PANTS]

[METALLIC CLANK]

[GRUNTING]

- Hey. Hey. I'm with Colter. I'm with Colter.
- [GASPS]

[GRUNTING]

[GASPS]

[GROANS]

[GROANS]

[GRUNTS]

[SCREAMS]

- [BODY THUDS]
- [GASPING]

[PANTING]

COLTER: Well, it's safe to say,

Grant Loutreau will
no longer be defending you.

DEBORAH: The appeals board

is meeting next week.

Our new lawyer
and the district attorney says

that with Mallory's testimony,

your conviction will
be overturned quickly.

And you've been approved
for inmate protective custody

so you can continue
to heal here at the hospital.

- You're not going back to prison.
- [LAUGHS]

I... I... I can't believe it.
I don't know what to say.

STEPHANIE: You're coming home, Daddy.

You're coming home.

♪ What do you sing when

I can't thank you enough.

For everything.

Don't thank me. Thank Stephanie.

- Mr. Shaw.
- Yeah.

You saved my life.

You gave me a second chance.

You have an amazing family here, sir.

Enjoy each other.

Oh, yeah. I see how it is.

Just skipping town
without saying goodbye.

Typical.

What's gonna happen to Mallory?

New name, new location, new life.

She's gonna get a fresh start,
and she'll be safe.

Good.

Well...

You know, I'm really glad
they didn't k*ll you.

Wow. Okay. Thank you.

That's so sweet of you,

'cause I'm glad
they didn't k*ll you, either.
