- Do we have a problem?
- WALTER: He fell.

- SUNNY: He fell?
- AMBER: Yep. That's him.

He seemed interested in Deadman's Drop.

The decommissioned trail
off the Basin Trailhead?

- BEAU: What do we got here?
- Multiple sets of footprints.

Somebody's water bottle.

It looks like they've
been a lot of places.

Kinda like our backpacker.

- Tonya and Donno are criminals.
- I heard they went legit.

Tonya worked for a drug cartel.
Legit, my ass!

- Paige?
- Hey. (CHUCKLES)

What are you doing
in Paige and Luke's tent?

They all look alike.

- Face it. We're lost.
- What about the money?

The money won't mean a thing
if we die out here.

Oh, my God. Relax.

Good luck waiting for Mommy
to come find you.

- Shut up!
- (GASPING)

(GRUNTS) Touch me like that
again, I'll k*ll you.

We didn't find
Paige and Luke last night.

Why don't we all go out
and look for them, too?

JENNY: Any progress on the backpacker?

Yeah. And there's this old case...

This girl found years ago

in the same place
with her heart cut out.

I'm sorry. What?
Emily's up in those woods.

Hey. Emily.

- Stay away from me!

I was just trying to

SUNNY: I totally understand
your frustration,

but there's nothing more
we can do tonight.

- Yes, there is. I can go.
- SUNNY: You can't do that.

WOMAN: Oh, my God, guys.

Oh, my, G... We've been worried sick!

Are you okay?

We need a first aid kit.

First aid, pretty please.

- Where's Paige?
- I don't know.

What the hell ya mean, you don't know?

Hon, let him explain.

At first, we sorta got lost

and then we got into
a fight worse than usual,

and she said she wanted to go home.

- That was the last I saw of her.
- Go home?

Yeah, she said she never wanted
to see me again.

How did you get those cuts?

Well, after we fought,
we saw a light in the woods.

Light? What, like a...
Like a flashlight?

Maybe?

I thought it was someone
looking for us, but...

Paige ran after it
and then I chased her,

and I must have fell and hit my head

'cause it's all a bit hazy after that.

When I woke up she was gone,
and I had this.

- Has anyone checked the tent?
- That's a good idea.

I'll go do that right now.
Get 'em some blankets, will ya?

- Thank you.
- BUCK: She went home, huh?

Just like that?

Yeah, that's what she said.

You know, when she makes up
her mind, it's...

I can't believe she just
left you out there.

Yeah.

If Emily hadn't found me...

You saved me. Thank you.

DOUG: That's pretty sweet and all,

but I'm having a hard time
piecing all this together.

Well, he's not lying.
Paige's stuff is gone.

She must have snuck in,
grabbed her things,

and high-tailed it back to town.

You think she's gonna make it back okay?

It's only a couple of miles
on clearly marked trails.

sh**t, we walked that together
a couple of days ago.

If she wanted to be gone,
I mean, nobody's a prisoner here.

I'll call the ranger station,

have them look for Paige at the put-out.

Well, I guess there's nothing
more we can do tonight

except get a good night's sleep.

Then we'll start over in the morning.

Ladies, would y'all please
take care of Luke?

Take him back to his tent.

Thank y'all very much. Feel better.

Something else you want to tell me?

Emily was pretty shook up.

Well, of course she was, the poor thing.

I did.

Just something I gotta do.

This is it.

BEAU: Sure we don't wanna call first?

Yeah, no, I get that.

I just wanna know

The Mooney brothers, Gil and Ivan.
They used to own half this valley.

- Now just this.
- Okay, well, great.

So can we go up to the house
and ask to look around?

This is Montana, likely to meet
a r*fle or a pack of dogs.

Yeah, well, same in Texas,
but, you know,

at least there we still observe manners.

We'll give you an iced tea and
then sh**t you for trespassing.

(CHUCKLES) Thank you.

But hey, what do I know?

You could always go back to Houston.

Ah. (LAUGHS) Kidding me?

You'd miss me too much.

I would?

Yeah, I think deep down,
just a little bit.

- Hm.
- Besides, I can't leave.

I gotta stay here for my daughter.

Do you ever talk about
your daughter with Cassie?

Okay, I see where this is going.

Let's just keep it professional,
Hoyt, for now

and, uh, you know, focus on the job.

Finally found a way to shut you up.

Okay, no, no, no. It's not
that I don't wanna talk about it.

You know I'm with the
Sheriff's Department, Mooney.

Put the r*fle down.
Let's talk about this.

Still in my rights. You're trespassing.

- Yeah, we should have called.

Yeah, you are correct, sir.

Listen, I'm gonna get up nice and slow.

This is not Texas. He will sh**t you.

No, he won't.

Nice and slow. Here we go.

This is my land!

That body is my brother!

It's Gil.

Did you k*ll him?

No.

Easy, easy. Hey, I had to ask.

Okay, let's take this down
a few notches.

Tell us what happened with your brother.

I told him to listen to me

Preliminary coroner's report said

Hit his head on a rock.

You two fight, maybe?

No. It was those gold mine bastards.

These bastards have a name?

No, we got scammed.

They were hawking off
a stockpile of unrefined gold,

needed investors for a refinery.

Gil was never great with money,

and after the flood,
we were gonna lose the ranch.

They swindled us and disappeared.

So your brother confronted them?

I told him to let it go.

But he wanted them dead.
Lured them out to the ranch.

They must have got to him first.

What was the company called?

Good morning. How did you sleep?

Um... okay.

What are you working on?

I'm not buying Luke's story.

Why not?

They had a fight, and she left.
(CHUCKLES) Happens.

So he gets completely lost,

but Paige somehow finds
her way back to camp,

packs all her bags
without anyone seeing her,

and then hikes all the way back to town?

Well, it's not that farfetched
that she wanted to leave.

I mean, he was a bit of an ass.

You know, he keeps telling
everyone that I saved him,

but when I saw him out there,
he didn't look saved.

He just looked, I don't know,
like, scared or something.

I don't know what you saw, so...

I saw you in their tent.

Yes, and I told you
it was an honest mistake.

All of these tents
look alike from the outside.

Not everything is a mystery.

Avery! Come on.

It's not like there's
a million tents out there.

You must have known that
that was Paige and Luke's.

- Why were you really in there?
- I told you.

Fine.

But if you're hiding something,
I'm gonna find out.

Where you off to?

I lost my Kn*fe in the woods last night,

so I have to go look for it.

No, no, you are not
wandering off on your own.

That Kn*fe is very important to me.

I sleep with it under my pillow.

My father gave it to me.

Look, Emily.

I promised your mother
that I would look after you.

Fine. (SIGHS)

But I can look after myself.

♪♪

♪♪

Hey, I, uh... I cut Ivan loose.

Turns out, he was telling the truth.

He wasn't there when Gil was k*lled.

He's still pretty upset, though.

I would be, too.
He just lost his brother.

- Mm-hmm.
- You guys got anything?

Been looking into Starlight Mining.
We need to show you something.

Yeah.

Guy got arrested
three months ago in Idaho

for aggravated as*ault,
name's Harold Gardiner.

The witness statement
is eerily similar to Ivan's.

Victim got fleeced
by a company called StarBright.

Starlight, StarBright.

Somebody's got a thing
for nursery rhymes.

Okay, well, if this is our guy,
let's go get him.

There's more.

She was arrested with him.

BEAU: Is this the woman you were
talking about earlier?

You know her?

She's my mother.

♪♪

All right. Yeah, thanks for checking.

So (SIGHS) that was the trading post.

Apparently Mark had a resupply
package waiting for him.

- Never picked it up.
- Hm. Well, get this.

I just heard from Mark's family.

They said that he e-mailed
them an update a few hours ago

that he's in Logan's Pass.

- What?
- Mm-hmm.

That his service is spotty,
that he misses them,

and he'll see them soon.

Logan's Pass puts him miles off course.

Yeah, well, maybe that's why
he skipped the trading post?

Mm... No, something doesn't fit.

He e-mailed that from his phone?

Yeah, his mom said he's not an e-mailer,

that he would have called or texted.

So she asked us to check it out.

Doesn't make sense.

(ENGINE SHUTS OFF)

So are we not gonna address the

fact that your mom is a career criminal?

It's complicated.

I bet.

We haven't spoken in years.

Last I heard, she was grifting
her way through Idaho.

The gold mining scam
used to be her thing.

Her and her sap of the month.

So, when I heard that name,
I had a feeling.

And you think she's involved
with Gil Mooney's m*rder?

m*rder would be a stretch,

but her fingerprints
are all over the setup.

And you're sure it's this motel?

If she's in town.

She has an arrangement with the manager.

Really?

All right, so what's the plan?
We talk to her, see what she knows?

Just don't let her charm you.

You can't trust anything she says.

BEAU: All right.

Why are you in town, Mom?

Okay, I'm here to find Harold.

Because he stole from me.

He took my life savings, everything,

after I showed him the ropes.

The gold mining grift.

Listen, a girl's gotta eat.

Oh, my God. She's still scamming people.

Okay, time out.

If Harold is here doing
this grift, as you call it,

then would you know where to find him?

I don't trust you, either.

But Mr. Sheriff here, he's right.

We want the same thing.

Do you know where Harold is or not?

A simple question.

If I did, I'd have my money back.

But what I can do is narrow the search.

What do you mean?

Well, he'll be hunting
for his next mark,

somebody desperate for a quick payout.

Trouble? In what way?

Oh, I don't know.

Uh, any pushback on any of the terms?

Plenty of shady characters
out there, am I right?

No. N-Not that I can think of.

So, a lot of happy campers, then?

A lot of happy campers.

- Great.
- Great. (CHUCKLES)

I forget. H-How did
you two find me again?

- Facebook friend.
- Casino.

JENNY: Honey. (LAUGHS)

- Both of us, actually.

See, her... her...
Her friend from Facebook

At Lucky LuAnn's casino.

It was... It was a night
that I will never remember.

Oh! I will never forget.

DENISE: Well, I'm just saying...
Why would someone in distress

send a selfie to their parents?

It just doesn't make any sense.

I know. None of it makes sense.

Yeah.

Me, too.

You been hiking?

I know that that sounds crazy.

I don't think it sounds so crazy.

I don't trust Luke. He seems shifty.

He is, right? Because nobody

Hey. What are you guys talking about?

Just making conversation, that's all.

Hmm. Well, maybe you should just
focus on the horses, yes?

It's cool. Relax.

See you on the trail horses.

Are you kidding me?

What, I can't talk to people now?

No. Wait, wait.

Hold on.

Look at the mountains.

Wait a minute.

Mark's photo has snow on the peaks.

Right, but there isn't any.

all just melt overnight?

Exactly. That would take weeks.

There's no way he was here.

Okay, so then why would he send

He wouldn't.
