Well, you know what?

Since you guys showed up,

nothing's been right around here.

I got my eye on you.

BEAU: I know the SEC is initiating

a fraud investigation

for misleading investors.

$15 million could be pretty tempting

to somebody in a financial situation.

I made a mistake, but I thought it

would all be cleared up, and it will be.

When we get back into town,

Emily and I are gonna get a hotel.

I need some space.

TONY: Where's the money?

The account's heavily encrypted.

You fail, I won't ruin your life.

But Carla and Emily

[KEYBOARD CLACKING]

[BEEP]

I unlocked Paige's account.

[CHUCKLES]

BEAU: Sheriff's department!

Hands where we can see them.

CORMAC: Who is he?

His name's Walter.

He's your brother.

I hid him away.

I gave him a safe place to call home.

I protected him!

JENNY: Where's Paige?

Is she alive?

I k*lled her.

WOMAN: You have a beautiful voice.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]

Paige?

PAIGE: Sunny.

Well, you're a helluva surprise.

I bet.

I thought you high-tailed it

back to civilization.

I figured you'd be sitting

on a beach somewhere,

sipping a Mai Tai

with your toes in the sand.

[CHUCKLES] You left out the dead part.

- I never thought that

- What did you think?

I'm just glad you didn't

fall in a ravine

or get eaten up by a grizzly bear.

Thanks to your son.

Walter.

Walt took you in?

He saved me.

Well, you should know

that Walter's in jail.

He confessed to murdering you.

Why would he do that?

Yeah, that's the same question

I've been asking myself.

The only thing I can come up with

is that you tricked him into

sacrificing himself to save you.

He said he could help me

with a little problem I have,

but confessing

That wasn't part of the plan.

Well, he's still in jail,

and he'll stay there

until you show yourself.

- Now, let's go.

- First, I need to know

where my bag is.

I know you took it.

I imagine that Sheriff Beau

or that Jenny Hoyt has it.

So, what's so important

about that bag of yours?

There's something in it I need.

My journal.

That have something to do

with the money you took?

And if it does, I may have

a pretty good idea

who got to it before the police did.

Help me get it back

and I'll help you get Walter out.

[DOOR CREAKS, CLOSES]

Hiya, Walter.

Well, we figured out your secret.

20 years ago, you m*rder*d

your parents in a house fire.

They weren't my parents.

Ah. Well, according to this, there

was another kid in that house.

A little girl named Meredith.

She was never found.

Did you k*ll her too?

I was protecting her.

From them.

They hurt her worse than me.

Where is she now?

I set her free.

You mean you k*lled her.

It's not what you think.

Well, here's what I think

I think you k*lled her

just like you k*lled Paige,

or "set her free" in your parlance.

Same damn thing.

Yeah, I know what you're trying to do.

Do you?

Okay, let's talk about something else.

You were just a kid when this happened.

You been out in the woods all this time?

- Yes.

- Hmm.

So you expect us to believe

that you built that cabin

and you made supply runs into town

all these years all by yourself?

Who was helping you, Walter?

Is it the same person that

helped you hide Paige's body?

Was it Sunny and Buck Barnes?

- We know you were in Buck's truck.

- No. No.

It was just a coincidence.

So you do know who they are.

[HANDCUFFS CLANK]

Why don't you leave Sunny out of this?

Okay, well, if Sunny and Buck are lying

about knowing Walter,

there has to be a reason.

Okay. What are you thinking?

Maybe Buck's his accomplice.

Walter did have Mark Woodman's

body in his old truck.

He told us to leave Sunny out of it.

There has to be a connection.

Well, right now,

we got nothing concrete,

and Walter is due to be

transferred to County.

So, we need to ask our questions

while we have the time.

The girl that went missing

after the fire, Meredith

Walter said he was protecting her.

He said the same thing about Paige.

Hmm.

You guys, maybe Paige isn't dead.

We still don't have a body.

That's true.

- Just his word.

- [SIGHS]

The more we learn,

the messier this gets.

Yeah, maybe we need to start

from the beginning, before all the lies.

You want to find Meredith?

Yeah.

Way ahead of you. Already ran the name.

Big old pile of nothing.

Then we look harder.

[CELLPHONE VIBRATES]

Hey, Pops, what's up?

Okay, sit tight. I'll be right there.

- What's up?

- There was a m*rder at a wedding.

- Come on.

- It happened at a ranch near Birdseye.

[SIGHING] Okay. Um

You good to take it?

I'll stay with Cassie,

'cause clock's ticking

on this Walter thing.

For sure.

I'll let you know if I need you.

Just fine.

Victim is Austin Chambers, 28.

His bride-to-be, Skylar Sharpe,

found the body.

I'm so sorry, Pops.

Were you close with the bride?

Uh, went to her christening.

Our families have always been tight.

Especially Eli, Skylar's father.

Was anyone with her

when she found the body?

Yep. The wedding photographer.

She and the victim were due

to have a photo session

before the ceremony, but he didn't show.

Do we have a time of death?

Crime techs narrowed it down

to the early morning,

sometime before

the wedding guests arrived.

Who had access to the property

during that time?

That would be the wedding party.

They all stayed overnight

after the rehearsal dinner.

Uh, more than one person mentioned that

Skylar's dad got into

a big fight with the victim.

Okay, keep the wedding party here.

Send the rest of the guests home.

Copy that.

Looks like he was hit

with something sharp.

Crime techs are still looking

for the m*rder w*apon.

What can you tell me

about the victim's family?

Cattle ranchers.

Yeah, this property actually belongs

to the victim's father, Mr. Chambers.

Property like this

must be worth a fortune.

I wonder if the victim

and the bride-to-be

- stood to inherit.

- Yeah.

Something tells me this one

ain't gonna be easy.

[SIGHS] Weddings never are.

So, we couldn't find anything on

Meredith Levinson in the system either.

Mm, so you basically did the same thing

I had a desk jockey do earlier,

with the same results.

Good thing you're not billing

the Sheriff's Department.

You're not billing the

Sheriff's Department, are you?

I wasn't finished, Bo-Bo.

- Okay.

- Bo-Bo?

Yeah, it's the cringiest of all time.

It's a harmless term of endearment.

- Hmm.

- Alright?

What do you got, Denisey-poo?

[GIGGLES] Well, anyway,

so, unlike your desk jockey,

- we don't give up, so we, Em?

- Nope.

Instead, we're changing course

and looking into the possibility

that Meredith Levinson

might have changed her name.

Oh. I'm listening.

I mean, it's taking forever, but

But you know what they say

Patience is a, uh

- Virtue.

- No.

It's just an eight-letter

word starts with P.

- [CHUCKLES]

- Oh, no.

- [LAUGHS]

- Oh, no.

Okay, I'm going through change

of name requests with the state.

Oh, I'm with ya. Okay.

So, what if we back-trace

the name with the birthdate

in the Montana Vital Statistics?

Um

Ooh, I think we got her.

Yeah, Meredith Levinson.

She's still alive, except now

she goes by Madeline Lowe.

Nice work, Em.

That's my girl. That one.

[CELLPHONE VIBRATING]

Everything okay?

Yeah, I just keep getting calls

from a blocked number.

Answer it, then.

The bride's dad is waiting.

Let's do this first.

Hey, Eli.

Hey.

This is my partner, Jenny Hoyt.

Can we make this quick?

I really need to be with my daughter.

You want to ask me about the

fight with the groom, I suppose?

Can you tell us what it was about?

[CHUCKLES] All that family

cares about is money.

And you thought the rehearsal

dinner for your daughter's wedding

was an appropriate time

to bring that up?

The timing choice was theirs, not mine.

At dinner, my daughter told me

that Austin made her sign

a last-minute prenup.

So, yes, I approached him

at the rehearsal dinner.

What'd you think about the wedding

moving forward after that?

It didn't sit well with me.

But it was Skylar's choice

to make, not mine.

Bringing two families together

is complicated.

It's only natural you wanted

to protect her.

You don't get it.

After Skylar lost her mother,

she stopped smiling.

Austin was good for her,

despite his family.

She was happy.

So, if you think I was gonna

take that away from her

Not a chance.

I've said my piece, and that's all.

And for Skylar's sake, you

better find out who did this.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's been, um, a rough day.

And, uh I wanted to see you.

Tough case, huh?

Never gets easier, does it?

Well, something's wrong

if it ever does, you know?

What did you find?

Let's get into it tomorrow, okay?

Of course.

Hey. Carla.

I think you might need this

more than me tonight.

CARLA: Thanks.

- You too.
