01x10 - SOS

Post by bunniefuu »

The night that
Zach was k*lled,

I was blackout drunk.

This is what you do.

You leave
when we need you the most.

This is your fault.

- There is the wife.
- You're drunk.

She admitted they had a fight
after the party.

Still haven't
told me your name.

You went on a date
with the man

that's been trying to
ruin my life.

He said he thought
that you're selfish.

You're not gonna last
out here, girl.

- That is a Paulson Promise.
- I don't scare that easily.

What happened
to your face, JP?

- Oh, no, we're done talking.
- This isn't over.

You hear me?
It's not over!

Most park rangers
are seasonal workers.

stay the winter,

pick up litter,
clear paths.

We do small things
and hope they add up.

Get it, get it!

Others roll the dice,
take their chance,

make their move.

Piedmont, Piedmont.

Piedmont!

Piedmont?

Piedmont!

Hey, where are you, bud?

Piedmont!

Uh-oh.

Got a fish for you!

I don't actually
have a fish for you.

Oh, there he is.

Hey, bud!
Thank you so much.

You guys, thank you.
I-I really appreciate it.

I know you guys are
all packing up to go.

You sure you want to
stay here for the winter?

It's end of season.

All the seasonal rangers
will be done for the year.

You'll be alone.

Well, gotta
spend it somewhere.

And I'm good alone.
I gotta get him inside.

Real scary.

I wouldn't wanna be here alone.
It's like a horror movie.

- Final Destination.

That's the one
I'm thinking of.

How is this like
Final Destination?

In life.
Just stating the facts, Frieda.

I'm not far if you need.

- I'm just gonna be at my folks.

We will be fine.

Well, I've still got a lotta

Hey, Geoff, what's up?

What?

- Hey.
- Thanks for coming.

How's Buddy doing?

He's with the vet.

- He's pretty sick.
- Is it the water?

Jeremiah Paulson did this.

Poisoned the river
and then bought all the land

along the watershed
so nobody would complain.

He didn't try to
buy your land?

He offered me cash for it.

When I said I wouldn't sell,
he said he'd get it for free.

By contaminating it,
so it's worthless.

Jesse found sulfuric acid
in the river.

But where's it coming from?

Should have known
it was a threat.

I'm gonna sell my land.

What? No, Geoff,
you have to fight him.

He's already won, Anna.

It's not over 'til you
fly into the sun and blow up.

Okay, we'll see you,
Ranger Pigeon.

- I'm the county attorney.
- My pleasure. Truly.

You investigated Kay's death,
is that right?

She died in the park,
so, yes, I did.

I wrote out an account of
everything that happened

while I was in the cave.

As well as everything
that happened

with Bethany Lopez afterwards.

You know she's going by
Paulson now.

- Bethany is?
- Separate trial.

Let's stick to this one.

I just, um...

JP deserves to go to prison
for what he did to Kay.

Do you actually think
that will happen?

You'd be surprised.

Sometimes the truth is enough.

This is real cute, Pigeon.

You're not untouchable,
Jeremiah.

I want the world to know
what you are

and the evil sh*t you do.

All right,
but I have an offer for you.

- I'm sorry, what?
- An offer.

As you know,
the county attorneys

are just interviewing
witnesses right now.

Hell, they don't even have
a trial date.

So if you would back away,
recant your testimony.

I'll tell you something
about your husband's death.

You don't know anything
about my husband.

- I might...
- I call bullshit.

Anna, do you know
how many people

I know in this world?

Including a clerk at NYPD
who says they have a suspect?

I'd love to tell you more.

- Think about it.
- Mr. Paulson?

- Think about it. Yeah.
- We're ready for you.

Hey, Jeremiah.

You know
what I am thinking about?

This.

You can shove that offer
right up your a*s.

- Glad we spoke.
- Oh, me too.

gonna come, you know?

I fell.

Tripped on

Speaking of which,
how's your nephew?

Gonna beat
those m*rder charges?

I have a lot of faith
that justice will be done.

So are we gonna lay down
some ground rules for tomorrow?

Each man brings one r*fle,

as much a*mo as we can
carry, no helpers.

Then each of us gonna put
a million bucks in a pot.

And whoever bags
the quarry takes it all.

Sounds good.

Who are we hunting?

We'll leave at dawn.

You're doing
really well for

a guy with
a broken, messed up leg.

- Tough as nails.
- Yeah.

I come from a long line
of tough guys.

You know, my, uh,
my dad used to hunt.

He'd never come back
until he was successful,

which, well, I guess
is a good thing

since he wasn't
too successful in life.

There's various ways
to measure success,

I've learned over time.

Yeah, well, hauling copper
out of an open pit mine

ain't the way, okay?

Your dad mined
copper around here?

No, he worked out of
the pit mine down by Butte.

What gets mined over here?

Sapphires.

You know, why don't
we take a rest here?

You have water
in your pack?

Yeah.

There's exploratory
drilling, too.

Yeah?

Uranium's the new
big thing now, yeah?

They just leach it out
with sulfuric acid.

Uranium, really?

- Near the park?
- Yeah.

You know, this leg
is really, uh...

You mind, uh...?

Here, let me take--
