- The Stetson is mine.
- Okay, what's going on here?

Did you run track in high school
or something?

Are you accusing me of being
some sort of ringer, Walker?

I'm accusing you of being fast.

'Cause I was on Mathletes.

Dad, you should really start
focusing more on cardio.

Or you could just cut out the junk food.

All right, thanks.

TREY: Oh, so this is what we get

- for finally inviting you, huh?
- Mm-hmm.

AUGUST: Hey, Dad,
Captain James is inside,

says there's, like,
a seating chart emergency, so...

All right, I'm on it.
Uh... I got to shower.

- Yes, you do. (LAUGHS) Yeah.
- Nice run.

Ranger Barnett, a word.

Mrs. Walker, those for me?

You wish. I promised Kelly

a spectacular wedding bouquet,
and I aim to please.

I'm also in charge
of RSVPs and catering.

Okay, so I s... I-I see
where you're going with this.

I bet you do.

- His wedding is tomorrow.
- I know, I know.

And pretty much everyone
is bringing a plus-one.

Well, except for Cassie,
but she's got a pass

since her last boyfriend

turned out to be a homicidal anarchist.

(TREY EXHALES)

Well, I was planning to ask Lana,

the woman that I met when I was
undercover with those...

homicidal anarchists.

But bringing her to Cap's wedding is

obviously a horrible idea.

I mean, the optics
of that alone, it's just...

- Right, optics.
- Yeah.

Look, Trey, okay,
you're basically family,

so I am just gonna
come straight out with it:

You have had a tough year.

I've seen it, and so has everyone else,

but I've also seen how well
you've handled everything,

and how much good
you're doing as a Ranger.

But, at some point, you have
to do good for yourself.

You deserve to be happy.

And you deserve someone
who makes you happy.

- Okay. Oh, my gosh, you won.
- Mm-hmm.

- You better get up and help me.
- (LAUGHTER)

WALKER: That finishes off six.

Yeah, I know, I'm fine with table six.

I'm talking about seven.
You put my cousin Janet

at the same table as my Aunt Lisi.

- There will be blood.
- Okay. Not a problem.

- Boys.
- Hi.

Sorry to interrupt this
musical chairs, but work stuff.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, we all agreed no work stuff
until after the wedding.

I know, I know, but I just
got a call from the FBI.

Tessa Graves.

Okay.

Don't tell me the case against
Grey Flag is falling apart.

Their case is in great shape, actually.

And Tessa said that

us taking down Kevin
had a lot to do with that.

Anyway, she's putting together
a Joint Task Force

to go after a fentanyl ring
back east, and they need

folks with experience working
big, complicated cases, like us.

JAMES: Hold up,
you're telling me the FBI

is trying to poach my two best Rangers

without even calling me first?

That's what you're telling me?

Relax, Cap. It's not poaching.

It's an eight-week operation.
July and August.

So, if we did it,
we'd be back by September.

Okay. What'd you tell her?

That I was flattered,

but I would need time to mull

and speak to you, obviously.

Uh, same here.
Flattered, very flattered.

Honestly, right now, before making

any major life decisions,

I feel like I got to do
some work on the seating chart,

- so... Excuse me.
- Yes. Yes. - (CHUCKLES)

- Hey, get Janet away from Lisi.
- I know.

- Like opposite ends of the room.
- Okay, I got it.

- Facing opposite directions.
- I got it. I'm on it.

(CHUCKLES)

Cass.

You can be straight with me.
Is this something you want?

It's a great opportunity,

but Austin

finally feels like home.

And I'm not sure I want
to spend my summer

chasing drug dealers
in the Everglades with the FBI.

Understood. But, hey,
for what it's worth,

you would be perfect for it.

Not that I want to lose you,
not even for eight weeks, but...

(CHUCKLES)

Seriously, career-wise,
it could be a really good thing.

Thanks, Cap.

All right.

All right.

All right, Augie, where we at
with the bubble machine?

Uh, what bubble machine?

The one I asked you to rent
for the ceremony.

Dad, we do not need bubbles.

WALKER: Yes, we do, Stella.

They'll be festive. Look,

I promised Kelly everything
would be perfect on the day.

Why is everyone ignoring my vision?

LIAM: Cordi, chill.

Okay, we're doing our best.

Everything's gonna work out just fine.

Okay, I think your brother is just

worried that the old Walker curse

is gonna ruin all our fun.

Oh, there's no such thing
as a Walker curse.

Uh, I could make a case.

Remember Serrano
and the surveillance cameras?

WALKER: Okay, we could
also make a list of all

the amazing things that
have happened at Walker Ranch,

including, but not limited to,
Captain James' wedding.

Uh, quick question, has anyone
checked the weather lately?

They're expecting freezing rain tonight

and possible flash floods tomorrow.

WALKER: You're kidding.

You're not kidding. She's not kidding.

Okay, okay. Time to pivot, people. Uh,

- ideas?
- BONHAM: Yep.

- Postpone it a week.
- WALKER: We can't.

James and Kelly leave the next morning

for their honeymoon,
same as you and Mama.

- Oh.
- LIAM: I-I have an idea.

Why don't we go check out
the old hay barn

that's next to the covered arena?

Okay, Liam, I don't have time for that.

Okay, fine, we will go and check.

That place seems pretty idyllic
for a wedding.

(LAUGHS)

Well... (SIGHS)

"Idyllic" is one way to describe it.

Okay, well...

what about The Side Step?
Can we fit everybody in there?

Not without cutting the guest list.

Look, I know this is gonna sound insane,

but we're just gonna
have to make this work.

Well, I guess I could get the backhoe

and move all the junk to out back.

Hm. Better idea is move it

- straight into a dumpster.
- Mm.

You know, we could repair these beams

and hang some lights from them,
maybe a disco ball.

And we have leftover lumber
from the rescue stables,

- plenty of tools...
- BONHAM: Yeah, well, now

you're talking about
construction. What about a crew?

Well, I've got the day off
and plenty of experience

with catered gigs,
so put me to work, Coach.

And not to brag,

but I did get a B-minus
in shop class, so...

ABELINE: Well, I suppose I could ask

a couple of the ranch hands for help.

LIAM: And Jim from DeMarco's,

the feed store... he owes me a favor.

I thought he wanted to m*rder you.

He had a little legal dispute
with a local vendor

that I might've helped him
out with, so now, he loves me.

And I can text Ben.

He has plenty of experience
working big events.

This is gonna be great.

Hey, teamwork makes the dream work.

Oh, my God, that is so cheesy.

(LAUGHTER)

WALKER: How you doing over there, kiddo?

- Good.
- WALKER: Okay, let me see it.

(CLEARS THROAT) Ah, let me, uh...

All right.

- Look at that.
- (CHUCKLES) Thanks, Dad.

- How do I look?
- Not too bad, buddy.

Not bad at all.

I mean, you know, w-we can't have you

showing up your old man, so

let me just do a little something.

- Hey, hey.
- (BOTH LAUGH)

- This took a while.
- All right. Let's get changed.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(EXHALES) Hey, Dad?

- Yeah?
- Uh...

Remember how you said that,
like, if I needed to talk... ?

Yeah. What's up?

You know, I'm gonna be
a senior next year,

- and I've been...
- Yeah.

... really thinking about my future.

Yeah, I bet. Sure.

And I actually might know
what I, what I want to do.

Ah, okay, okay. Let me guess,

you want to pursue music?

I want to enlist in the army.

I know the m*llitary isn't exactly

what you and mom had in mind for me,

and, to be honest, I never
thought I'd be interested

in it, either, but, like...

this year just kind of
changed that, you know?

(GRUNTS)

(SIGHS) Look, Dad,
I've been flailing, all right?

I-I've been looking

for direction
and just a sense of purpose.

And you feel like

the m*llitary will give you that?

Yeah, like what the Marines did for you.

- That was different.
- How?

It...

It just was.

Well, Gramps thinks it's a good idea.

Y-You talked to my daddy
before you came to me?

I-I e-mailed the recruiter,

and he said I could start early.

Like summer, if I really wanted to.

Augie...

you're only .

Yeah, I need your consent.

Well...

Uh...

Wait. You know,

I-I'm gonna need some time
to think about this.

To-to really

think about it, you know?

(SIGHS)

But I promise you
I'll keep an open mind.

- Okay.
- STELLA: Guys, food's ready.

I wasn't planning on
bringing this up today,

on account of the wedding and all,

but it sort of feels like
the perfect moment, so...

I decided to start college in the fall.

No. Yes.

Seriously?

- Stella Blue, that's amazing.
- (STELLA CHUCKLES)

I'm-I'm proud of you.

Wait, what about working
at the horse rescue?

Oh, I can do both. I already
talked to Uncle Liam about it,

and it won't be a problem.

- That's cool, Stel.
- Yeah.

Yeah, I was,

I was, I was just getting used to
having you around.

Kind of sucks that you're, uh,

leaving for Sauber soon, you know?

I guess I sort of buried the lede there.

I'm sorry. I'm not moving
to Oregon State.

- I enrolled at UCAS.
- No way.

Wait, so you're, like,
you're staying in Austin?

Yeah. I'm gonna get a place
downtown with Colton

- when he's back from Vegas.
- WALKER: Wow.

Can both of y'all just stop

growing up so freaking fast?

- Please? Thank you. Uh...
- (PHONE RINGING AND BUZZING)

Sorry.

Uh... W-W-Work thing.

I-I got to take it,
but don't go anywhere.

Uh, all right, sorry. (CLEARS THROAT)

This is Ranger Walker.

Cordell.

Detective Luna, Corpus Christi P.D.

- WALKER (OVER PHONE): Hey.
- It's been a minute.

David, yeah, it's-it's been years.

Listen, I'm calling with some news.

Hollis Miller just d*ed.

I see. Um...

I'm sorry to...

hear that. (SIGHS)

What was his, uh, cause of death?

He, uh, passed in his sleep.

He... In his sleep?

Kind of young guy
to just die in his sleep.

Medical examiner did a full autopsy,

all right? Says natural causes.

Were his insulin levels normal?

Yeah.

Look, I see where you're going
with this, Walker.

Believe me.

I'm happy to say
his insulin levels were normal.

Okay.

Okay. Uh, well, um...

Did they check for trace amounts
of digoxin?

No, because that's not part
of the standard post-mortem,

you know that.

Yeah, okay, I-I need you
to ask your ME to do that.

Detective,

it's a simple test.

Man, I called you as a courtesy.

I don't want to go back
in time here, Walker.

And I can't let you.
Emily would k*ll me.

Emily passed.

Damn, I'm sorry.

Yeah, no. Me, too. Thank you. Um...

I...

One test, as a favor.

All right, Jim, coming down.

Yeah, you got it.

Good job. Take it easy.

That beam should work out just fine.

(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING)

So, this FBI thing...

- You'd be gone for how long?
- CASSIE: (SIGHS) Eight weeks.

So, it's kind of like
summer camp, but with g*ns

- and drug dealers.
- (CHUCKLES)

And an opportunity to take
your career to the next level.

So you think I should do it?

Just don't stay away forever.

Oh. Needed that.

Wait, what do you mean
you didn't get an invite?

SADIE: Oh, it's fine.
I'm not really offended.

I don't really know
this Captain James guy.

AUGUST: We still want you there.

You know, it'll be fun,

and you're already helping out, so...

Be my plus one.

Colton's out of town, and

I insist, so you really
don't have a choice.

Well, if you insist.

Stella, can I talk to you
for a second? Thanks.

Listen, I was planning on asking
Sadie to be my plus one.

Oh, Augie, please.
You're, like, still a child.

- You don't get a plus one.
- ABELINE: Stella Blue,

I need a fresh set of eyes
on this and be honest.

- Too many peonies?
- STELLA: Mawline,

can you ever have too many
peonies? It's perfect.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

'Cause I still feel like
it needs something.

What about this?

Oh, blue for luck.

It's-it's my best friend's wedding.

I want everything to be perfect.

Thank you for that. Thank you.

WALKER: So, as I researched what exactly

was required of a wedding officiant,

it-it became clear to me that,

why I think

Larry trusted me with it.

That's true, that's true.

My initial plan was to just
kind of stand up here

and wax poetic about
my best friend Larry

and the love of his life, Kelly,

and how the two came together again,

they found each other again. They found

love again.

How inspiring it was for me,

on a personal note,
I-I've known this man for

a heck of a long time. (LAUGHS)

- Long time.
- Uh, we started out

and good night.

Safe travels.

- ABELINE: Thank you.
- (BOTH LAUGH)

All right.

Looks like I need a new dance partner.

Oh, God, no. I can't feel my feet.

All right, I guess we've been
going pretty hard.

Yeah.

So, um,

have you given any thought
to your summer plans?

I think I'm gonna go for it.

But, between you and me,

it might be for more than just a summer.

So, that's the tricky part.

Tessa's really been
giving me the hard sell.

To what, to-to cross over to the feds?

No. You know how I feel
about those guys.

But I...

- Forget I said anything.
- (SCOFFS)

I'm not too sure I could forget
about something like that.

(CHUCKLES)

Cass, um...

You remember what I said earlier,

about this being home now?

A lot of that is because of you.

(SIGHS)

I know.

And the same for me, too.

Maybe that's why our fight and...

everything after Grey Flag,
it just hit me so hard.

I wouldn't really call that
a fight, it was more just us

telling each other some hard truths.

Yeah. 'Cause we care so much.

Yeah.

(LAUGHS)

Second location?

- That's a great idea. Yeah.
- Yeah. (LAUGHS)

My feet are k*lling me, though.
I can't walk.

You need a...

All aboard the choo-choo train.

(LAUGHS) Here we go.

- Hyah. Yeah.
- Choo-choo train?

So, uh, where do you want to take these?

Hey, what, you know, why don't
we set them down in here

for a sec. Yeah.

I want to say something

- while we got a chance.
- Uh... Okay.

- Um, please, sit. Uh...
- Yeah.

Um...

I want to tell you

how proud I am of you.

Not just for how you helped
make today happen,

but how you've changed course
this past year

for the better, how you've grown.

Now, you were a little lost, and
I get that because I was, too.

Okay, so you've, uh,

thought about what I said,
about the army?

I've thought about it
a lot, yeah. (CHUCKLES)

And...

I don't think it's time.

Oh, okay, but, like,
everything you're saying

about how I've grown, doesn't that

indicate that it's, like,
the perfect time?

You're growing.

Still in the process.

And I'm not saying no, never.

I'm saying not right now.

Augie,

have a summer,

finish high school,

and if you still want to look
into basic training after that,

I'm not gonna stand in your way.

(SIGHS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

He's such a hypocrite.

I know that it feels that way,

but, come on, do you really want to cut

all that beautiful hair for the army?

(SIGHS)

Hey.

I love you, Toad.

Witt. From the party.

Do you think he was here

Oh, God.

Take this.

- Well, just wait.

- He's bleeding...
- Just wait for a minute and just think.

Okay?

How is this gonna look?

Worse if we don't call somebody.

SADIE: If you call somebody,

then this whole thing is set in motion.

It was self-defense. It was an accident.

Yeah, and we know him,
and I have a record.

You have a record.

Ugh, I just mean...

who would you even call?

WALKER: That's gonna be warm.
You said two pieces of bacon?

All right. Uh, here you go.

And napkins are inside.

Thank y'all. Ger.

I bet he's, uh, trying
to stay awake for Sadie.

Well, who knows
what those girls got into.

- Might be waiting a while.
- Yeah.

Yeah.

You good?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

(SIGHS) Geri, actually,

um...

I-I don't know if you have

something going on with
this Jesse guy at the cabin.

- Jesse?
- Yeah.

No, there's... there's nothing.

I'm glad to hear that.

Uh, hey.

What do you think about
staying here this summer?

We can all celebrate
Sadie's birthday together.

Why don't you stay here?

Why don't you...

stay here with me?

Hey. What's going on?

Years ago, there was this case,

this serial k*ller.

We called him the Jackal.

Larry and I chased it,

and Larry, he got obsessed.

I mean, he became

consumed.

I mean, could it really be him,

after all this time?

It might be.

So...

case went cold. We got

pulled off by the state,

but a man just d*ed,

one of his intended victims
during that time,

but, uh, you know, we were able
to save him back then.

But, um...

... seems like the Jackal
may have finally got him.
