[PASTOR KEN] What did you hope
to get out of being here today?


I just wanna help people.

When you learn how to serve,
then you're welcome here anytime.

Perry Abbott is in
violation of his bail,

therefore the deed to your
ranch shall be forfeited.

[GROANS]

[SPEAKING SHOSHONE]
If something happens,

you might never get back to your time.

[JOY HAWK] I know someone named
Royal, tries to be a good man.


Men like your father, where I come from,

they jail men like him.

[LEVI SUMNER] Go on, Royal.

Know this, the day you die,

your family will rejoice.

[JOY GASPS]

Royal! Wait!

[INTENSE DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[MUMBLES WEAKLY] ... doing by that hole?

What was that?

[MUMBLES INDISTINCTLY]

What were you doing in that hole?

Who sh*t you, Joy?

Joy, who sh*t you?



You're bleeding somethin' awful.

Looks like it's gettin' infected.

I'm gonna take you to county.

Royal! [PANTING]

What were you doing in that hole?

My land, Sheriff.

What were you doing on it?

Joy, you're gonna be okay.

I'm gonna get you some water. Okay?

- Breathe.
- [TIRES SQUEALING]

Breathe!

Breathe!

[GASPING]

It's alright.

- [ROYAL ABBOTT] Hey.
- [POUNDS ON TABLE]

[RAP SONG PLAYING OVER EARPHONES]

My bad.

[ROYAL CLEARS THROAT]

How much?

[PANTING]

There you go.

Thank you.

[MAN] Oh, hey, Mr. Abbott.

Earl Chinlund's son, Jess.

Oh. Hey, Deputy.

How's your, uh, pa?

Yeah, he's good.

Arthritis and the like, but good.

- Well, you give him my best.
- [JESS] Yeah.

- Hey, Mr. Abbott?
- Yeah?

I'm sorry about all your troubles.

Perry. Granddaughter.

Yeah, I appreciate that.

[JESS] All of Wabang's
gone so topsy-turvy.

And the Sheriff's still missing.

Take care, Deputy.

One of your officers is outside.

Chinlund.

Another one behind the wheel.

[ENGINE REVS]

Oh! [EXHALES DEEPLY]

[ROYAL] Drink this.

Nah, drink the whole thing.

Ah, damn it.

What?

They're following us.

[JOY] Don't speed.

How you feelin'?

[JOY HUFFING]

Shitty.

You want them to take
you the rest of the way?

[JOY] Mm-mmm.

Take me to the res.

To Wind River?

Don't they have
checkpoints for outsiders?

Exactly.

Those two can't cross.

They're gonna have a lot
of questions for both of us.

I'm not ready to answer
anything right now.

[CECILIA SOBBING]

[CECILIA WAILING]

[CECILIA SIGHS]

You don't have to go
through this on your own.

[SNIFFLES]

I've...

I've never felt this
helpless in my life.

[SIGHS]

- Cecilia?
- Mm-hmm.

It doesn't make you any stronger
going through this alone.

Okay.

Come with me.

Come with me.

Dude's standing there, ass naked.

No joke, no chonies, nothing.

Talking about his time
walkin' with the elders.

He's here from 1972. And
you know that type of...





Damn it!

This is bad, isn't it?

No, no, it's good.

I mean, story's moving along.

I'm believing you.

sh*t, it sucks, bro.

Oh, stranger danger.

Light 'em up.

[SIREN WAILS, CHIRPS]

Sir, roll your windows down.

I got a wounded woman in here.

Edgar, it's your cousin, Joy.

Hands on the steering wheel.

- What?
- [EDGAR] Now.

- [JOY] No, guys!
- Alright, alright.

Joy, what the f*ck is going on?

He's taking me to IHS.

[SIGHS]

Why are your people here?
They looking for you?

Just hold 'em off, okay?

Dan, host our friends.

Got it.

Get back on the road.

IHS is a few more miles out.

Alright.

Autumn.

Autumn.

"Fear not for nothing is covered
that will not be revealed.

Nothing hidden that will not be known."

Remember when the pastor said that?

If you're scared to go in
there, you need to rethink God.

Come on, Cecilia.

She's a woman in need,
the Abbots are in need.

Instead of putting it all on God,

why don't you take some
responsibility for yourself?

- You're responsible for that.
- Think of what you're saying.

And you're misleading people.

And they'll waste their entire lives

under this false deception
and delusion of faith.

[PASTOR KEN] Autumn! What are you doing?

- Cecilia...
- [AUTUMN] She needs $500,000

or she's gonna lose her ranch.

She's gonna lose it forever.

Cecilia, is that true?

Mm-hmm.

[PASTOR KEN] Oh, Cecilia.

So find the money. Help her out.

We don't have $500,000.

This church does not have $500,000.

This is a simple church.

This is a town full of old money.

- My congregation would do anything...
- Are they exempt from doing God's work?

... to help Cecilia,
but we do not have that.

Autumn, why didn't you tell me
this is what you were gonna do?

Because I knew that you
wouldn't come with me if...

You're asking the people
of this church for money,

money they don't have,
while your family is rich.

Why?

Because I want you to see what
these people are really like,

who they actually are.

Well, be the example
you want them to be.

Call. Ask your family for money.

Amen to that.

[BEEPS]

- [AUTOMATED RESPONSE] We're sorry.
- [SIGHS]

You have reached a number
that has been disconnected


or is no longer in service.

That's weird. I...

I think my sister
will know where she is.

[LINE RINGS]

[BEEPS]

[AUTOMATED RESPONSE] We're sorry.

You have reached a number
that has been disconnected


or is no longer in service.

Beware of false prophets kicking
and screaming for miracles

while you're unknowingly
being rebuked for your vanity,

'cause I see you for who you really are,

and that's a dime-store philosopher,

sanctimonious huckster
with nothing worth buying.

And I bet your family
abandoned you a long time ago.

Pastor, you're taking the high road?

- That's not Christlike.
- [PASTOR KEN] Cecilia, spare yourself.

Not all people can be saved.

Well, how do you know if you don't try?

Today she tried.

Cecilia.

You alright?

Yeah.

You're somethin' else.

What do you mean?

When you believe in something,

nothing's gonna change your mind.

Yeah, that's just who I am.

Well, it's who I am too.

But I had forgotten.

You just reminded me. Thank you.

I thought you would've been mad.

I am. No, I am.

Well...

You know, there's only one person
I know who can get that angry.

- Who?
- Amy.

I'm so worried that
I've missed who I am.

I've just been blind to so many things.

We all are.

Yeah, we all are.

[SIGHS]

First time at IHS?

Sure.

Can I ask you a question?

You just did.

Where'd you find Joy again?

[SIGHS]

What's your real question?

The one I just asked.

You know, let's say I did
something bad to your cousin,

would it make a lot of sense
that I would bring her here after?

- Good point.
- [ROYAL] Hmm.

Domestics do it all the time.

She was sh*t when you found her?

- She was.
- [EDGAR] Hmm.

And, uh, you just did
the neighborly thing?

Again, get to what you're asking.

Did you put your f*ckin'
hands on my family?

[SIGHS]

Only to get her here.

[LEVI] Go on, Royal.

Sight down like I taught you.

Look, I'm not trying to be an assh*le.

Just don't think you're gonna
believe anything I tell you.

[ROYAL GRUNTS SOFTLY]

[EDGAR] You alright?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm alright.

Alright.

Uh, I'm gonna go check on Joy.

Hey.

I'm Deputy Jess Chinlund.

Amelia County Sheriff's Department.

What do you want, Deputy Jess Chinlund?

[JESS] What's your name?

Daniel.

Look, Dan, uh...

I got this feeling that I can't shake

that our boss is, uh, in
your jurisdiction right now.

And?

And I really need to know if she's okay.

Well, Deputy Sheriff...

you're just gonna have
to wait in your car.

I just wanna make sure she's okay.

[NURSE] Joy's awake.

She wants to see you.

You sure about that now?

She said the white guy.

Thank you.

Still feelin' shitty?

Kinda.

[ROYAL] Hmm.

Thank you again.

[SIGHS]

You wanna start or should I?

What are we startin'?

Fine.

I ended up in your West Pasture

'cause I time traveled
through that hole.

Figured I'd cut through
all the bullshit.

Mm-hmm.

That's not a question.

[JOY SCOFFS]

[JOY] Right.

I lived in the 1880s for four years.

Met Shoshone, hunted
with them, made friends...

was accepted by them.

While I was there, I
met a boy named Royal...

who saved my life.

[r*fle COCKS]

And I'm bettin' he was you.

What makes you think that?

I just told you I traveled through
time and you didn't even flinch.

Not a g*dd*mn word.

That boy sh*t his father...

[g*nsh*t]

to save me.

- To save you?
- [JOY] Yeah.

[g*nsh*t]

And he had every right not to.

They were huntin' me
and another native girl.

[JOY GASPS]

I always believed that I sh*t my father

in a hunting accident.

Ran and jumped in that hole...

thinkin' I'd disappear.

Not how it happened when I was there.

- You were there for four years?
- [JOY] Mm-hmm.

Years?

You were only missing for
a few days, that's all.

A-a few days?

You know, we have stories.

Old... old stories.

Um...

What do you think it is?

The hole?

I don't know.

There were so many signs that...

came before all this happened.

Like what?

Harlan talking about dinosaurs in caves.

A guy I arrested told me
about people disappearing.

That mountain that just
vanished and reappeared.

[ROYAL, SOFTLY] Hmm.

You have someone you can talk to?

Talk to?

It's gonna eat you up
to keep this all inside.

I got Martha.

Good.

'Cause I spent the
last 50 years lying...

to the world.

I told you my family can't
know about any of this.

To my family.

There's a lot I can't explain.

- Well, try!
- I am trying.

First lie is the hardest...

then it just gets easier.

My family's broken now because of it.

Tell the truth...

before it's too late.

[JOY] I have a feeling you and I

are gonna be havin' more of
these conversations, Royal.

Get some rest.

Amy? Amy?

[MELANCHOLY MUSIC PLAYING]

[SIGHS]

Don't come back here again.

[CECILIA GROANS]

Two of 'em smelled like ammonia.

Probably meth'd out.

Had no idea they snatched the sheriff.

Real masterminds, huh?

All because I wanted some gum and
went to the wrong liquor store.

They thought they were
gonna be quick in and out and

everyone got in over
their heads, including me.

Any idea where they took you?

Not sure where exactly.

They knocked me out,
threw me in a trunk.

Ended up in a cabin.

Maybe... a few minutes or hours.

Time gets funny that way.

Yeah.

Well, you're back.

That's all that matters.

Happy to be back.

Um, I figure first thing
we'll do is put you with Betsy.

Well, maybe she can sketch
their faces, put out a BOLO.

Feds may wanna chat too.

I don't think we'll find 'em.

Well, maybe, maybe not.

They can't get away with it.

They won't.

Entire department's
ready to get after this.

sh*t, Matt's been shook.

Think he was ready to ask for a
federal taskforce or something...

Jess, I just wanna move forward.

You, uh, you talk to your wife yet?

No.

They smashed my phone.

Mind if I use yours?

There you go.

I'll, uh, let you have some privacy.

You know, you seem different.
