03x03 - Miss Cheyenne

[bunniefuu]

[Drum beats continue]

[Drum beats continue]

[Car door closes]

[Buzzer]

[Sighs]

Who's responsible for that?

Hard to say.

The Native American Brotherhood hunt in packs.

But I am confident the novelty of b*ating up the new guy will wear off.

Malachi Strand tried to make a deal with me last week.

He said he could make the beatings stop if I agreed to vouch for him at his parole hearing.

Under no circumstances are you to make that deal, Walt.

Hopefully, I won't have to.

Cady's scheduled your bail hearing for Friday at 5:00.

Now, if all goes well, you'll be out by the weekend.

Meantime, if you need anything...

Actually, there is something.

It might seem small, but it is important to me.

I need you to take my place as a judge for a competition on the reservation.

The event is very sacred.

It is the Miss Cheyenne Nation Pageant.

A beauty pageant.

It is not your typical beauty pageant.

[Cheers, applause, and tribal chanting]

Announcer: Contestant number one... Micheala Grey Wolf!

[Cheers and applause]

Contestant number two... Lilly Stillwater!

[Cheers and applause]

That's right. Show Lilly your love.

Contestant number three... Jeanine Redcloud!

Walt!

[Cheers and applause]

Contestant number four... Kendall Marsh!

Walt!

Contestant number five... Candace Akape!

All right, that is contestant number 6.

Walt.

Vic, I'm a little busy.

Yeah, well, sorry to interrupt the swimsuit competition, but we got a body.

[Tribal chanting, drum b*ating]

[Cheering]

[Car door closes]

Walt: Sorry. Took me a while to smooth things over with the other judges.

So, what's the story?

High-school kid and his girlfriend called the body in.

I tried to ask them some questions, but, like typical teenagers, they wouldn't tell me what the hell they were doing out here.

I got a pretty good idea what they were doing out here.

This property's been abandoned for decades.

Become a popular destination for teenage couples.

[Gloves snap]

How romantic.

Victim's name is Ben Mallory.

He's 32 years old.

He took two s*ab wounds to the left torso.

The blood on his shirt and the mattress are both dry, so I'm assuming that he, uh, got k*lled sometime last night.

Sorry, did you know him or something?

No.

No, stabbing's just a bad way to go.

Any signs of robbery?

No. His wallet and cash are still on him.

But I did find this.

[Pills rattle]

Prescription pills, medical supplies, and a Durant Regional I.D. badge.

It looks like Ben Mallory was a doctor.

Well, then, let's get Dr. Mallory to the hospital for an autopsy.

You can talk to Ben's co-workers, find out what a doctor was doing way out here.

I hope the suit fits. I had to buy it off the rack.

Nothing in your closet was really formal enough.

Whatever you think will help our chances, Counselor.

Okay [Sighs]

Decent.

It's a little loose, but it looks good.

How do you feel?

Like an lndian Al Capone.

[Exhales sharply]

I even have the scars.

Well, don't worry about that, because I came prepared.

Now, remember, this is not a trial.

It's a bail hearing.

There is a judge but no jury.

And we don't have to prove that you're innocent.

We just have to show that you're not a flight risk.

And how do we do that?

By showing that you're a model citizen.

Which you are... you've never even been arrested.

Actually...

Ben Mallory's associates said that he'd only lived in Durant for three months.

Before that, he spent two years with Doctors Without Borders in West Africa.

Did Ben have a wife or kids?

No. But his parents live in South Dakota.

I just spoke to his mom on the phone.

She said they'd get down here as soon as they could.

Ben's secretary said that he got a call around 6:00 last night.

A few minutes after that, he left the office with his medical bag... didn't say where he was going.

She just assumed that he was making a house call on his way home.

That barn's a pretty odd place to make a house call.

Yeah, but he's new in town.

He had no idea where he was going.

It sounds like this caller was trying to lure him out there.

Did Ben have any recent problems with colleagues or patients?

All the nurses said that there'd never been an incident at the hospital.

But one of them did say that he also worked out at the reservation clinic, so...

Uh, I can head out there if you want.

You sure you're up for that?

[Chuckles]

Driving and talking?

I think I can handle it.

[Door closes]

Hey, there.

[Laughs] Hey.

[Chuckling]

Oh. [Grunts]

It's good to see you!

I guess you remember me.

Yeah, it's good to see you up on your feet again.

You know, don't rush it, though, boss.

You got to rest up as much as you can.

[Chuckles] Rest will have to wait.

Does a Dr. Ben Mallory work here?

Yeah.

What can you tell me about him?

[Sighs] Not much.

Ben's a volunteer with Indian Health Services.

Lot of those guys come through here.

Cocky white dudes sent to rescue us with their medicine.

[Chuckles] But Ben's not too bad.

And the ladies, they certainly don't mind him.

[Laughs]

Looks like someone m*rder*d him last night.

Seriously?

Did he have problems with anyone?

Uh, one guy got into it with Ben last week.

They were both yelling at each other pretty loud.

Can you tell me who it is?

Uh, no, not offhand, but I can check the logbook.

[Indistinct yelling echoing]

Do you know what the patient was yelling about?

No, I wasn't in the room.

But you were in the room when I was brought in.

Yep.

First time I ever saved anybody's life before.

It was kind of wild.

[Shudders]

Did I say anything weird?

Naw, by the time I jumped in, you were already out of it.

Anyone else come in around that time?

Someone with a g*nsh*t wound?

Like who?

You mean David?

You know him?

Oh, yeah.

He comes in all the time to donate blood.

When was the last time you saw him?

Mm, 'bout a month ago, I guess.

[Sighs]

You see him again...

Call me right away.

Yeah, sure thing.

Uh, hey, don't you want the name of the patient that was yelling at Dr. Mallory?

[Chuckles]

[Sighs]

So, don't mention the fact that you arrested Henry last year during that fracking protest.

You sure?

I thought I'd lead with it.

Cady: [Chuckles]

Please don't try and be funny on the stand.

Are you wearing make-up?

A little.

Bailiff: Court will come to order!

The Honorable Joseph Mayhew presiding.

All rise.

Judge: All right, everyone, settle in.

All right.

In the matter of the state vs. Henry Standing Bear, the defense is seeking bail?

Yes, we are, Your Honor.

I see that this is a m*rder charge, and if convicted, your client could be facing the death penalty.

My tentative judgment is to deny bail outright.

Knowing this, do you still wish a hearing?

Yes! Yes, Your Honor.

My client has been a business owner for over 20 years, and... and this shows that...

I'll give you the weekend to decide if you want to waste the court's time.

[Glass thuds]

That's enough, miss.

[Scoffs]

I'm sorry, were we not in the same courtroom today?

You heard what the judge said. He's made up his mind.

Henry's not getting bail.

I heard the judge say you had two days to figure something out.

So order some food and get to work.

You're not staying to eat?

I can't. Branch found a suspect in our m*rder.

So I gotta go talk to him.

[Chuckles lightly]

[Sighs]

Dale: Every time an Indian raises his voice, it's just a matter of time before the cavalry shows up.

Mr. Grey Wolf, why were you yelling at Dr. Mallory?

Because he's a pervert.

Did Dr. Mallory touch you or something?

No. My daughter.

She went to see him a couple of weeks ago.

She was sick. It looked like the flu.

But instead of taking her temperature, this doctor took off her pants and gave her a pelvic exam.

Did Dr. Mallory tell you why he did that?

Oh, he said he was just being thorough, but he abused his medical authority to look up my daughter's skirt.

So, yeah, I raised my voice.

Are you here to press charges against me?

Not yet. We would like to talk to your daughter.

If she was molested, a report should be filed.

She's at a friend's house tonight.

And frankly, there's no need for you to drag out this ordeal.

The situation has been dealt with.

Vic: "The situation has been dealt with"?

Is that a nice way of saying he m*rder*d the guy?

Check Dr. Mallory's background for reports of sexual abuse by patients.

In the meantime, we need to talk to Dale's daughter.

Get her side of the story.

I'll make some calls, see if I can track her down.

No need. I know where she's gonna be tomorrow.

How so?

I recognized her from the pictures inside.

She's a contestant in the Miss Cheyenne Nation Pageant.

I was sort of surprised to see you in the courtroom.

Back in school, I never pegged you as a litigator.

So, how'd I do? What'd you think?

I think that was your first bail hearing.

[Chuckles]

[Chuckles]

I'm not really a trial lawyer, but there's a lot riding on this case for me.

You've done a lot of these bail hearings, though, right?

So, aside from the client's record, what else could I use as proof to show that he won't run?

Is this why you called me? To pick my brain?

You never minded tutoring me in law school.

Right...

But I had other intentions.

So, how about [Chuckling] I buy you dinner tonight and you give me your expertise?

Save your flirting for the judge.

What questions you got?

Okay, are there any laws that I should reference in the bail hearing?

Or is there any way that I could, like...?

Cady...

Bail hearings are about people.

If you want the judge to grant bail, you need to prove to him that your client is an honorable person.

Right.

Bring out his family... preferably daughters.

The judge has three girls.

Henry doesn't have any family.

That's bad.

So you gotta spin some bullshit about how Henry's got ties to the community.

He does.

There's a whole group of people on the reservation that depend on him.

I could bring them all in to testify.

[Chuckling] Whoa.

Judge Mayhew hates a long hearing.

Find one good witness and put them on the stand.

But I can't guarantee even that'll help.

Is there anything that you can guarantee will help?

Yeah. Prove Henry didn't do it.

That was the hospital.

The call that lured Ben Mallory to the barn came through the switchboard.

So the call is untraceable?

Right.

There's no way to tell if it's Dale Grey Wolf or someone else entirely.

You know, I've been thinking, maybe Dr. Mallory wasn't at the barn on business.

Back in high school, the only reason anybody went up there was to hook up without being caught.

So instead of making a house call, he was making a booty call?

The guy at the res clinic said he was popular with the ladies.

Maybe Ben was meeting one of them up there to... "Play doctor."

Walt: I'm sorry to bother you.

Are you, by any chance, Ben Mallory's mother?

Stepmother. I'm Dr. Sylvia Mallory.

And this is Ben's father, Dr. Oren Mallory.

I'm Sheriff Longmire. I think you're here to see me.

Well, we were just about to head inside...

I can't.

I know how hard this must be.

Facing the loss of a child is about the worst thing a parent can go through.

I just can't go through this again.

My oldest son, Andrew, was m*rder*d in Detroit.

They ever figure out who did it?

The police have pretty much given up at this point.

As far as they're concerned, Andrew's just another one of Detroit's unsolved murders.

That was a year ago.

And now Ben.

Did Ben have any enemies?

Ah, no. He made friends everywhere.

He always volunteered for the places that needed the most help.

He wanted to be just like you.

Oh, he was a better man than I.

Now, I spent my fair share of time working for reservations and free clinics.

But I did it to pay off my medical-school bills.

Not Ben.

Ben was different.

He was selfless.

Ben could afford to be selfless.

He had you to support him.

Yeah, well...

[Groans]

You know, I keep thinking...

… what did I do to deserve this?

I know this is difficult, but any information you have may help.

Yeah, well, please, no offense, but...

I'm finding it hard to see the point to all this.

When Andrew was k*lled, I spent hours with the police, and nothing came of it.

I know what that's like, more than you think.

I'm sorry I can't do anything about Andrew's case, but I can do something about Ben's.

Now, I promise...

I promise... things are gonna be different this time around.

Walt: Vic, put in a call to the Detroit Police Department.

Ask them for a copy of Andrew Mallory's m*rder file.

Detroit?

Since when did we start investigating murders in other cities?

I'm just taking a look for Oren Mallory's sake.

Okay.

In the meantime, I got some information on Ben Mallory.

There are no allegations of sexual abuse, no malpractice suits.

The guy was a Saint.

Dale Grey Wolf, on the other hand, has two priors for as*ault, and he's obviously got a temper.

So, depending on what happened in that exam room, he totally could have snapped.

We'll know more after we talk to his daughter.

"Contestant Grey Wolf, what are your thoughts on world peace?"

"Oh, and, by the way, do you think your father could be a m*rder*r?"

[Tribal chanting]

[Indistinct conversations]

[Scraping]

Neena Wapasha.

Is this your first time judging, Sheriff?

Yeah. I'm guessing you've done quite a few of these.

About 15 between here and my home in Oklahoma.

Don't be nervous.

It's just like talking to your own daughter.

You mean they're gonna talk back?

[Both chuckle]

Contestant number two...

Lilly Stillwater.

Hi, Sheriff.

Hello, May.

Hello, Sheriff.

[Clears throat]

Contestant number one, Micheala Grey Wolf.

Any relation?

My daughter.

Oh, she's cute.

Isn't this supposed to be the talent competition?

Where are the batons?

Your idea of beauty pageants is a joke.

Bouquets and bikinis.

The Miss Cheyenne Nation Pageant is a proud cultural honor.

These girls must prove their knowledge and skill at carving the animal.

The judges ask them difficult questions while they work to see if they stay calm under pressure.

I imagine that's hard for some people.

Miss Grey Wolf.

What are the best spots to sh**t a deer?

A hunter should always aim for the lung and the kidney.

A direct sh*t to either will k*ll the animal quickly so they won't suffer.

Where did you learn your butchering skills?

From my father.

These knives have been handed down through my family for generations.

Are you sick?

I know you recently went to see Dr. Mallory.

What did he have to say about it?

He said it wasn't contagious.

Thank you. Think we have all we need.

Good job, Micheala.

Thank you.

So, what'd you think?

I think she's pregnant.

Walt: Whoever stabbed Dr. Mallory knew what they were doing.

Direct hits to the lung and kidney would have k*lled him almost instantly.

And from what I learned today, Micheala and her father are both experts with a Kn*fe.

All this because Ben gave Micheala a pap smear?

Seems extreme.

Well, there's a little more to it.

It looks like Micheala may be pregnant.

Wow. Okay.

Well, from what Branch found out, Ben was pretty popular with his female patients.

Maybe he and Micheala were having an affair.

That could explain what he was doing at the barn that night.

Dr. Mallory meets Micheala there for a little privacy.

Dale Grey Wolf finds out about it and ambushes him.

That, or maybe Ben tried to end the affair.

Micheala got pissed, decides to k*ll him.

Walt: Before we go too far with theories, we need to confirm she's pregnant.

We need to get a look at Micheala's medical files.

Cady: Thank you.

Thank you.

Just gonna take this.

Okay, so, um, this isn't quite right, but it's a great start, so I'm gonna go get you a-a clean sheet, and you can take another cr*ck at it, okay?

Okay.

We are so screwed.

Cady?

It's gonna be okay.

Have you even read these affidavits?

Most of the people are afraid to sign their own names, and of the ones who did, the best one says Henry was pretty good at darts.

You are not wrong. These are terrible.

But it is early.

We'll give them some pointers.

Okay?

Good. Now, just relax.

It's gonna be okay.

[Clears throat]

Excuse me.

[Chuckling] Hi.

I'm so sorry.

I completely forgot we were having drinks.

I didn't think I was working tonight, but Cameron said we've got to log in some... some hours if we're gonna give Henry a fighting chance.

Who's Cameron?

Uh, Cam... Cameron Maddox?

He's, um, he's an old friend from law school.

He's got a lot of trial experience.

So I've brought him on as my shadow counsel, which is kind of like an unofficial adviser.

He said I... I need one good witness for Henry, so I threw this little affidavit party to see who the best spokesperson might be.

Mm.

May: You're gonna need more food than that.

[Laughs]

Hello, May.

Where did everybody come from?

They made an announcement after the pageant finished for the day.

Lilly sang the Cheyenne departing song.

You should have heard her.

You trying to sway my vote?

[Laughs] I don't care which way you vote.

I just wish you could see how far Lilly's come these past two years.

It wouldn't have been possible without you and Henry.

Oh [Chuckles] I don't know how much I had to do with it.

She's a good kid.

Yeah. She is.

Okay.

Nice to see you.

[Screams]

You were looking for anything you could use to get my daughter disqualified!

And I guess now I know why!

What the hell are you talking about?!

[Grunting]

You told the judges Micheala was pregnant!

Is she?! Well, is she?!

You can answer me here...

Or at the station!

[Groaning]

[People murmuring]

[Groans]

Walt: When I mentioned to the judges that Micheala might be pregnant, I had no idea it was grounds for dismissal.

Thanks to you, the other judges forced Micheala to take a test.

When it came back positive, they threw her out of the competition on the spot.

I tried to keep it a secret until after the pageant.

That title meant everything to Micheala.

And to you.

So, who's the father?

What business is that of yours?

Vic: Because we think Dr. Mallory might be the father.

And when you found out that a white doctor knocked up your daughter, you decided to k*ll him.

What?

You never told me he was dead.

I didn't k*ll him.

It was Micheala's boyfriend who got her pregnant.

That doctor had nothing to do with it.

So why were you really yelling at him at the clinic?

Because he offered Micheala an abortion.

Dr. Mallory said it was "an option."

That's what he called it.

But it really was just the latest ploy white doctors are using to wipe us out.

They've done it before.

In the 1880s they'd wrap newborns in disease-covered blankets.

Up until the 1980s, they were sterilizing lndian women without their permission.

A woman would go to the clinic for an appendectomy and leave with a hysterectomy.

Now, every time an lndian girl turns up pregnant, they tell her to abort.

They say it saves their future...

But all it really does is destroy our tribe's legacy.

[Footsteps approach]

Branch: Walt.

The Detroit P.D. just sent over Andrew Mallory's case file.

Turns out he was stabbed in the exact same places as his brother, Ben.

No money was missing off his body.

You think the same person k*lled both of 'em?

Dale clearly had reasons to k*ll Ben, but there's no cause for him to go after Andrew.

Dale isn't the only expert when it comes to knives and anatomy.

So, what, you're thinking Micheala?

She didn't have a motive to k*ll Andrew either.

I was actually thinking about a different woman.

Sylvia Mallory. She's a doctor...

Knows where a Kn*fe can do the most damage.

Plus, Oren Mallory sounds like he's got money.

With his sons out of the way, she'd get everything.

Wouldn't be the first wicked stepmother to try and k*ll her stepchildren.

[Sighs] All right.

Check into the Mallorys' finances.

See if there was money worth k*lling for.

Also, check on Sylvia's whereabouts around the time of Ben's death.

What about Dale Grey Wolf?

He hit an officer. Leave him in the cell.

I see you had him ditch the suit and tie.

He's a Native American.

Dressing him up like a banker just hides who he really is.

Shall we?

I'm afraid you're on your own.

Believe it or not, I do have cases of my own that need attention.

Of course. Yeah.

Look, I am sure you'll be fine on your own.

[Sighs]

Besides, the judge gave his tentative ruling.

So, don't forget... you're already doomed.

Thank you for that vote of confidence.

Anytime.

What's in the box?

Ferg had it sent over from Rawlins.

Files on men I put away over the years.

One of them might have committed the crime that Henry's on trial for...

To get back at me.

You think your wife's m*rder and Henry's arrest are all retaliation?

Whoever did this wanted to make sure I suffered every day.

You got anyone in particular in mind?

Plenty.

You find out anything about the Mallorys?

Sylvia's office said she was at a conference in Billings when Ben was k*lled.

But I haven't been able to find anyone from the event that can verify that.

Checked into Oren Mallory's finances.

He's loaded.

Oren built up and sold medical practices all over the country...

Virginia, Oklahoma, South Dakota.

His net worth is about 22 mil.

And with both his sons gone, Sylvia gets everything.

Okay.

Okay, uh...

Maybe, instead of looking at who benefits from the boys' death, we should think about who suffers.

Ben Mallory's body ready to be released?

So, in addition to being the arresting officer on this case, you've known the defendant a long time.

Based on your experience, do you think he'd be a good candidate for bail?

You mean will he stay put?

He's a Cheyenne. We're originally nomads.

Look, Henry Standing Bear has no wife and no kids.

Now, he can give you his word he won't run, but frankly, I don't think his word can be trusted.

Why do you say that?

I watched him sign an intent to waive his extradition.

Then later, it was ripped up.

Which shows total disrespect for the laws of this court.

Objection!

This is not a trial, Counselor.

Sorry. Point of clarification, Your Honor.

This extradition waiver... you said it was ripped up.

Did you actually see my client destroy the waiver?

No.

Was it in fact another party who ripped it up?

Yes... then it appears my client has no disrespect for the court.

It is the other party that does.

I guess.

It was his best friend that tore it up, which is all the more reason to deny Henry Standing Bear bail.

He obviously has some questionable associates.

And if you can't trust the company a man keeps, you can't trust the man himself.

Judge: Court recognizes the defense.

Cady: Your honor...

I have 125 affidavits here, each one of them a testament to my client's strong character and the community's reliance on him.

I was up for seven hours last night reading them.

To spare Your Honor this task, I have chosen one person who can speak for them all.

Miss Stillwater, would you share with the court a little of your history with my client?

[Sighs] About two years ago, my daughter Lilly ran away from home.

She was 15.

I started hearing rumors that she had fallen into...

Prostitution.

I tried looking for her everywhere, but it was like she'd disappeared.

The tribal police wouldn't help me.

No one would help me...

Until I called Henry.

Henry, along with his best friend, they brought my Lilly home.

After that, he came every single week to check in.

He got her started in school again, and he paid for a good therapist.

Because of him, Lilly is now thriving.

She's even competing to represent our tribe in the Miss Cheyenne Nation Pageant.

[Chuckles lightly]

And Henry did all of this even though he wasn't family?

We Cheyenne have a different definition of family.

Family is not a matter of biology, but of loyalty.

And if that's the way you look at it, Henry is the closest family we have.

In your opinion, do you think Henry will flee if given the opportunity?

No. His name is Standing Bear.

Would you mind clarifying?

Many people think when they see a bear standing in the forest, it means to run.

But the bear is just standing guard, looking to protect those he loves from whatever may come.

[Voice breaking] Henry is a standing bear.

And a standing bear will never run, no matter what.

Thank you, Miss Stillwater.

Oren: Did you find out who did it?

Walt: Not yet.

First I...

I thought Ben's m*rder might involve one of his patients.

Then I looked at your first son Andrew's case file, and it turns out Andrew's m*rder is almost identical to Ben's.

Are you saying they were k*lled by the same person?

Well, I admit it's hard to believe.

After all, there's nothing really linking the two boys together.

They live in different places, have different jobs.

In fact, the only things they have in common are the same father...

And the same stepmother.

If you're implying that Sylvia had something to do with this, you're wrong.

We were together on vacation when Andrew was k*lled.

And as for me, I...

I could never hurt my sons.

I know that.

And I think the k*ller knew that taking them away would make you suffer.

Well, I can't think of anyone who would want to hurt me like this.

I have dedicated my life to helping people.

Yes.

You said you worked on the reservations.

I know that in the '70s, about the same time you were practicing, doctors on the res were sterilizing Native women without their consent, sometimes without even their knowledge.

Did you ever take part in that?

This again.

Listen.

No charges were ever filed against me.

What I did was within my rights as a doctor.

Most of the women I cared for couldn't care for themselves.

I remember once a 32-year-old mother came into the clinic with her 15-year-old daughter.

Both pregnant, both alcoholic.

It was a constant cycle of poverty and substance abuse.

Sterilization was the only way of breaking that cycle.

Now, some saw it as radical.

I saw it help women escape the horrors of the reservation.

Despite what you may think, I know I was right.

[Sighs]

You never know if you're right.

I told you before I could solve this case.

But in order for me to do that, I need you to waive doctor/patient confidentiality and open up your medical records.

Your son's m*rder did involve a patient, but I think it was one of yours.

Before this hearing began, I told you what my tentative ruling was.

In m*rder cases, I find it hard to justify the granting of bail.

But, in light of the testimony given, I've decided to make an exception.

Bail is set at $1 million.

[Spectators murmur]

Cady: I spoke to the bail bondsmen.

He said they'd cover 90% of the bail.

But we still need to come up with $100,000 that we don't have.

Well, there's some money in my retirement fund. It's not a lot, but it'll at least get us started.

[Knock on door]

The important thing is that bail was granted.

You did good, Punk.

Thanks, Dad.

Just get back here. We'll figure it out.

Okay.

Okay, bye.

Bye.

So, I've been going through the list of patients that Oren Mallory gave us.

So far, it doesn't look like any of the women have a connection to Dale Grey Wolf.

It's possible it's a distant relative with a different last name.

Could be an aunt or an uncle or...

Never mind.

Release him.

What?

Walt.

[Door closes]

It's a good thing we waited to have a drink.

Now we can celebrate your big victory.

[Sighs]

Not much to celebrate. Henry's still in jail.

And even with Dad's retirement and the collection jar we passed around, we're still short about 50 grand.

[Clears throat]

What are you doing?

I am writing you a check for $100,000.

What?

No. No.

Branch, no, I'm not letting you spend your money on this.

I will find some way to raise the cash.

You can't bake sale your way out of this, Cady.

I don't know what to say.

Henry will really appreciate it.

I'm not doing this for Henry.

[Chuckles]

Besides, we both know it's not my money.

I'm sure your dad will be thrilled when he finds out.

He'll get it back.

Unless...

Henry's not planning to run, is he?

[Chuckles]

Announcer: First runner-up...

With a total score of 112...

Jeanine Redcloud!

[Cheers and applause]

Walt!

What's wrong?

Where are the judges?

Uh... I think over there.

And now for the moment you've all been waiting for...

With a total score of 151, your Miss Cheyenne Nation 2014, Lilly Stillwater!

[Cheers and applause]

Whoo, Lilly! All right, Lilly!

[Drum b*ating, tribal chanting]

Neena?

Sheriff, where you been?

They just announced the winner.

I'm sorry.

I've been a little preoccupied looking into the m*rder of Ben Mallory.

I think you knew him.

Or at least you knew his father, back in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma.

[Chuckles]

That's where I won my crown.

That was the best night of my life.

I was a young woman with so much to be proud of.

Something worth passing on to my daughters one day.

But you never had children, did you?

I thought it was just bad luck.

But a year ago, I had a hernia operation.

During the procedure, they...

Found I'd been sterilized.

Oren Mallory was the only doctor who had ever operated on me.

An appendectomy.

I was 16.

He took away your ability to have children.

So I took his sons.

I just...

I wanted Oren Mallory to... feel the pain he caused.

I wanted him to know what it was like to have all your dreams for the future [voice breaking] taken away by a stranger.

Neena...

I thought I would feel peace when I got my revenge.

I was wrong.

I...

I feel emptier than before.

[Laughs]

And the irony is, Oren Mallory probably doesn't even remember me.

He'll never understand... he'll never understand why his sons d*ed.

Let me help you, Neena.

Ahh...

Let me help you.

[Whimpers]

You need to tell people what happened to you.

You tell them.

It will mean more coming from you, Neena.

[Buzzer]

You're never going back in there.

You should not make promises you cannot keep.

My freedom is temporary.

And it has limits.

No matter what happens, you're never going back.
