CASSIE: The ranch. I want to buy it.

I already have numerous offers.
All cash.

Do these people know about
the drug lab in the basement?

Your [SIGHS] offer is lower
than the others I've received.

It's the right offer, Tonya.

I'm accepting.

Emily's on a trip with her
stepdad. They're camping.

Oh, I'd just like

They haven't heard from him in a while.

Years ago, my neighbor's son's
girlfriend disappeared,

You're sure?

Yeah. It's hard to forget

H-How did he seem to you? Depressed?

Like he was running from something?

No. It was nothing like that.

He... He was vibing on the trails.

I just... asked if he wanted
to grab a couple beers with us

down at the hot springs,
and he clearly chose the trails.

DENISE: Oh, no.

Girls, as a rule, we never invite

a handsome stranger
back to a remote campsite.

That features in my top serial-k*ller

"most certain death" scenarios.

He's a serial k*ller?

- No. Denise, come on.
- Just sayin'.

Well, lucky for us,
he seemed more interested

- in Deadman's Drop.
- Deadman's Drop?

I-Is that the decommissioned
trail off the Basin Trailhead?

Yeah. I told him it was all washed out.

But I don't know. Maybe it appealed

to some sort of male expedition fantasy.

Well, no wonder no one's heard from him.

You think something bad happened to him?

He seemed like a nice guy.

Uh, we're not sure.

But we appreciate
you calling in the tip.

Thank you.

- Okay.

Looks like we're going hiking.

- We?
- Yes.

Who's we? Because, uh,
me and my sciatica

have plans to park it here
all afternoon, so...

Okay. I'm flyin' solo, then.

No. Cassie, you can't go hiking
on those trails by yourself.

Why don't you call Jenny or Beau-Beau,

see if one of them can come?

That's a good idea.

That is so good!

There's, like, layers of flavor

Hoyt! Oh, you gotta try this!

It's from the Blue Fox Diner.

It's a new menu item.

Copy that. Your mortal enemy.

Well, she makes a damn good sandwich.

No. Tonya doesn't make anything.
It's her bearded lapdog, Donno.

Well, not for nothing,
but that guy's got skills.

Everybody has their own unique gift.

Tonya and Donno are criminals.

No, I heard they went legit,

so until you have something
that proves otherwise,

I don't see why we can't enjoy
some tasty sandwiches.

Tonya worked for a drug cartel,
one that k*lled people.

Legit, my ass!

Okay. Hoyt, why don't you see

failed safety trials
over and over again,

fails mid-flight...

Hundreds of people will die.

getting ready to testify against them?

I was supposed to be.

So you ran. That's it?

You were gonna let innocent people die

This is Mark's water bottle.

He posted this from the Basin Trailhead
the same day the girls saw him.

Hmm.

Something happened to him
up at Deadman's Drop.

Well, maybe now my theory

about the Bleeding Heart m*rder
isn't such a stretch.

Well, I'm not saying that.

You know, I didn't tell you,

but that girl's body was found
at Deadman's Drop.

And they never did catch her k*ller.

They think he was linked
to other killings.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

I mean, it was years ago? I...

Yeah.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

[CELLPHONE ALARM BEEPS]

Ugh. I gotta go get Kai to camp.

- See ya.
- Yeah.

[CELLPHONE BUZZES]

Hey. How we looking, Pop?

They're on their way to the airport
just like they're supposed to be.

Any suspicious cars following?

What does a suspicious car look like?

You'll know it when you see it.

Hold on. What do ya got?

They just missed the turnoff
to the airport.

Maybe she just doesn't know
where she's going.


She said it's not her first rodeo.

She knows exactly where she's going.

So are we thinking that they
actually turned a U.S. Marshal

and that she's gonna take out Paul?

With this case, anything is possible.

They just turned north on Route .

[KEYS JINGLE] Tonya's property.

Okay, he said that he had
an insurance policy,

some piece of evidence.
I bet it's at that house.

Pop, stay with 'em. We're on our way.

You got it.

Cormac.

Come here.

Keep a tight rein on 'em, buddy.

Last thing we need is a sprained ankle

or a poison-oak flare-up.

I can't babysit 'em all.

We shouldn't have let them split up.

Well, that toothpaste is out
of the tube now, isn't it?

Just get it done.

I'll check down this way.

It's okay. It's not necessary.

Already walked it.

You find anything?

Nothing but dirt and sky
as far as these eyes can tell.

Ranger Mike gonna get a real
search and rescue going?

No, I don't think that's
necessary. We can find 'em.

When we do, we can
go back to having fun.

Might want to put some extra tequila

in their campfire margaritas tonight.

That simple, huh?

Why can't you just do
what I tell you to do?

Is it that hard?

Bad enough I've got missing lovers

and a mutiny of campers
just roaming all over the woods!

You're a grown man, Cormac!

Start acting like it!

Are you willing to die for this?

Lower your w*apon now.

Back off.

I think we found Camille Perez.

The missing assistant.

Camille.

I'm okay. I'm... I'm okay.

Let me guess. Your insurance policy.

She's gonna corroborate my story,
take Redmond down together.

We can. We will.

Em, you know, it's getting late.

- I think we should head back.
- Yeah, it's really late.

I'm officially worried about them.

Yeah, uh, just remember what Sunny said.

Don't jump to any conclusions.

Okay, but...

Besides, they might
be back at camp already.

And I need the toilet. Come on.

Just use one of the trees.

The other toilet.

Okay. TMI.

Look. There's just one more
trail that I want to check out.

[SIGHS] Fine.

It's alright. I'll just...
I'll be right there.

- You sure?
- Yeah, it's fine.

Alright. Em, do you want my water?

No, I'm good. You go ahead.

Hey, um, any progress on the backpacker?

Yeah. We confirmed the water

And there's this old case...

This girl found years ago

in the same place

I...

I remember that.

I think I was heading

I'm sorry. What? [CHUCKLES]

Still, might be a good time
