Longmire (2012–2017): Season 2, Episode 3 - Death Came in Like Thunder - full transcript
A murdered sheep farmer is killed over a deal to sell his land, and Cady goes to Denver to find answers about her mother's death.
[Crowd cheering, applauding]
♪ [rock music plays] ♪
[cheering]
All right, how about a
hand for Branch Connally?
[Cheering]
We wish
him better luck in the election.
[Laughter]
- I thought you had it.
- I did.
Let him win, Ferg.
[Man] Quick photo.
Come on, guys.
[Camera shutter clicking]
- [Walt] Ruby tell you where I was?
- Yes.
And she also wanted you to know
that the city council called.
They scheduled a debate
between you and Branch.
I don't remember
a debate last election.
That is because
you ran unopposed.
[Walt grunts] What?
I can tell you've got
something else you wanna say.
Only after you put down the axe.
I heard from Cady.
- She called you?
- She sent me an e-mail.
It did not say much,
only that she is safe.
This, uh, e-mail say where
she was or anything or?
If Cady had wanted me to
know, she would have said so.
She is an adult, Walt.
She's my daughter.
Walt, I am only the messenger.
[Phone rings]
Hello?
[Fales] Miss Etta Place.
Detective Fales.
I was hoping to hear from you.
[Fales] What's with the assumed name?
I like my privacy.
[Fales] I'm calling to talk
you out of doing this.
No, I need to talk to someone...
...who will tell me what
happened to my mother.
[Fales] How long are you in Denver?
As long as I have to be.
[Vic] The 911 operator said the call
came from somewhere near here.
[Walt] Blood.
Sheriff's department. Hello?
[Man] Up here. Hello?
Ohh, thank God.
What's your name, son?
I'm Robbie Colfer. It's my leg.
I think it's broken.
It's not broken.
Kneecap's dislocated.
That's impressive.
How did you manage that?
I, uh, was riding my bike
up on state park trail.
I guess I got lost.
I didn't think state park
was anywhere near here.
It isn't. Try again, Robbie.
All right,
I know I'm on private property.
But these hills are
legendary, man. I was stoked.
Then I hit a rock,
and next thing you know it...
...tail up down the mountain.
- [Laughs]
He's ass over heels. I got to
see that again. I'm sorry.
Worse news... fine for
trespassing's $500, son.
What? You got to be shitting...
[screams]
[Pants]
That's not cool, man.
It'll be tender for a bit,
but you can walk on it.
Hey, Walt.
Robbie didn't hit a rock.
No heartbeat.
[Vic] There's no head trauma.
No blood.
He has no visible wounds.
He looks pretty young.
Marko Vayas. 32 years old.
If I had to guess, I'd
say heart attack or aneurysm?
What's with the beret?
"Vayas" isn't French.
Basque... immigrants from
the mountains between...
...France and Spain.
What are they doing in Wyoming?
Uh, things got bad
in their homeland...
...around World War II, so...
...they came here
to raise sheep.
I don't see any sheep.
And I don't see his dog.
Young guy dying of
a heart attack, okay, but...
...his dog dying
at the same time's...
...a little too coincidental.
What do you think... poison?
Stop at his house.
If there's poison there, we
don't want anyone else exposed.
Robbie, got to make a stop.
[Knocking on door]
[Walt] Anyone home?
Hello?
Reclusive-bachelor chic.
You and Marko have
the same decorator.
I'll look for poison.
[Vic] There's no medications
in the cabinet, no food.
This guy obviously lived alone.
It's kind of sad, actually.
He might have some family.
We should try to notify them.
Any idea how to find them?
What's the date today?
[Music playing, crowd shouting]
Barrabilak, please.
[Woman chuckles]
Have you ever had that before?
Here you go.
Thanks.
What did you just eat?
You don't want to know.
Um... you know where we
can find the Vayas family?
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
[Crowd shouting]
[Cheering]
Costa, Sal?
Is everything all right?
- This is my wife, Amaya.
- Pleasure.
Sheriff Longmire.
W... would you join us?
Uh... [clears throat]
I understand you're
related to Marko Vayas.
Mm-hmm.
Marko is our baby brother.
He's not here, though.
He went up into the pasture...
...three days ago so we could
compete in the festival.
Have you seen or
talked to him since?
What is this about?
Sorry to tell you, we...
...found your brother dead
this morning on his property...
...near Gallitan Falls.
- Are you sure of this?
- I'm afraid so.
[Costa] What happened?
We're still trying
to figure that out.
Ah.
[Pounds table]
Can you tell us anything?
Was it an accident?
Did he die of a heart
attack or something?
Did Marko suffer from
any heart conditions?
No, not that we know
of, but it runs in the family.
Their father died a... a few
months ago from a heart attack.
We found this
picture at his house.
Is that his wife
or girlfriend or...
She's a girl in Ecuador.
Marko never met her.
He had it in his head
he was going to...
...bring her to Wyoming
to marry.
Like a mail-order bride?
We always call Marko
"basati." It means "crazy boy."
He had these wild ideas a lot...
...but he never went
through with the marriage.
We were able to talk
some sense into him.
Guess he just held
onto the picture.
I'm sorry,
but we're not done yet.
No one's watching the sheep.
Vic.
Let him go.
That was weird... Sal
just leaving like that.
I got four brothers, and
we don't always get along.
But if you told me one of
them was dead, I wouldn't...
...give a damn about any sheep.
[Vic] What you thinking?
I can't tell if Marko's
family is lying to us...
...or if Marko was
lying to his family.
- What makes you say that?
- This picture was taken here.
This girl's in Wyoming.
What's that?
Uh, this picture that Walt
found at the victim's house.
Something about it told him
it was taken from around here.
She's cute.
Got a nice smile.
[Chuckles]
More than I can
say for some people.
Try cracking a grin next time.
Ohh.
[Man on phone] National crime information
center. This is David Mackey.
David, this is Sheriff
Longmire, Absaroka County.
I need you to run a name
through the computer for me...
...Marko Vayas.
I'm curious if any other
law-enforcement agency's...
...ever run his
name for anything.
Sure, I'll check the database.
Now, listen... while
I got you on the phone, uh...
...has there been any hit
on that...
...name I gave
you a while back?
Sheriff, I told you before...
...if anyone looks into this
Henry "Standing Bear" guy...
...I'll call you. Okay?
- I appreciate it.
- No problem.
[Ferg] I got it.
- It's the mountain.
- Nope. It's the bird.
- [Ferg] A red-tip meadowlark.
- Yeah. Wyoming native.
Don't go much further
south than the Bighorns.
Come out to the pasture
this time of year to eat...
...the clover that
grows in the sheep droppings.
So, the picture could have
been taken on Marko's land.
[Walt] You get anything
from the biker's video?
[Ferg] Uh, no.
Besides the crash, there's
really nothing to see.
It's about two hours long.
I watched it in fast forward.
You go too fast, you
miss the little things.
Slow it down, watch it again.
We're not gonna get
Marko's toxicology report...
...back for a few weeks...
...and I have spent the
last two hours going through...
...100 mail order bride
websites.
Hey, Walt?
Why does she get all
the good assignments?
We need to get a hold
of Marko's computer...
...if we're ever gonna figure
out which services he used.
Marko didn't have a computer.
[Vic] How did he find the girl, then?
[Coughs]
The old-fashioned way.
"Cyrano Caballero...
Big Sky matchmaker.
- Say hola to your new bride."
- Hmm.
You know the
number-one epidemic...
...facing American men today
is heartache.
What you got is a lot
of very frustrated fellas...
...looking for a
better class of woman.
Luckily, though, right on the
other side of that border...
...you've got plenty of lovely
Latin ladies who are also...
...looking
to improve their lives.
So I put these two together,
and bingo... problemo solved.
A cure, if you will.
I can't believe men actually
pay you for this stuff.
A lot of guys actually think...
...American women
are pushy and overbearing.
Sheriff,
I couldn't help but notice...
...that you don't have a ring
on that finger. You know...
...I'd be more than
happy to offer you my services.
No. No, thank you.
A good woman goes a long way
to easing...
...some of the obvious
stresses of your daily life.
I'm seeing someone.
We're not here to talk
about his love life, okay?
Do you recognize this girl?
Oh, yeah. That's Rosa Marquez.
And a true rose she is.
Married a basquo boy by
the name of Marko Vayas.
Couldn't have been
more than a month ago.
Yeah, we spoke
to Marko's family.
They had the impression
he didn't...
...go through
with the marriage.
A lot of times, families have
a hard time understanding love.
But I can assure you
they were married.
I helped her put her
immigration papers in order...
...and I officiated
the ceremony.
Good. Then you'll have her
immigration papers...
...and her last known address.
Mm, my stuff's not
all that computerized.
Besides, I can't just give you
my client's...
...personal information.
Marko Vayas was found dead,
possibly murdered...
...and Rosa... There was
no sign of her at his house.
Oh, hold on here.
If you think that Rosa had...
...anything to do with
Marko's death...
...you got another
thing coming.
I put all my girls through
a rigorous background check...
...and I'll tell you that Rosa
is as good a girl as they come.
Jeremiah, I'm not
accusing Rosa of anything...
...but I do need
to talk to her.
I mean, I'm sorry about Marko.
My heart goes out to
his family and to Rosa.
But I'll tell you what...
...I haven't spoke to
either one of them since...
...the day they got hitched.
All right. You hear from
Rosa, give us a call.
I certainly will,
but I can assure you...
...you won't find that she had
anything to do with any of this.
Oh, Sheriff.
If things don't work out
with your lady friend...
...here's my card.
Give me a call if and when you
change your mind, all right?
I, uh, got the preliminary
autopsy report.
Marko didn't die from an
aneurysm or a heart attack.
It was respiratory
failure caused by...
...and I quote, "exposure
to an unknown substance."
Poison.
- Where are we with Rosa Marquez?
- Stuck.
Immigrations and customs
said they'd get back to me...
...on Rosa's visa info, but...
...who knows how
long that'll take, so...
Lizzie brought that by for you.
So...
What?
- Uh...
- I found something.
- Oh, sorry.
- [Phone ringing]
- Was I interrupting?
- No, that's my phone.
I think.
Uh, before I show you the video,
I just...
...I just wanted
to say that...
...about the picture
in the paper...
I wasn't there
supporting Branch.
We were on patrol.
He said he just needed to
make a stop.
I didn't know it was gonna be
for the campaign...
Ferg.
What did you find on the video?
You see that?
The biker had a bottle
of water with him.
And?
Well, if Marko was in
those hills for a while...
...he would have had
drinking water, too.
Hot day and all.
But you didn't find any.
Someone must have
poisoned his canteen...
...and took it
before you got there.
Okay.
See if you can
find that canteen.
That was immigration.
I underestimated them.
As far as they know,
Rosa hasn't left the country...
...but get this.
The address on her visa...
...it's not Marko's place.
First Mexican drug dealers,
now mail-order brides.
That's quite the clientele.
I don't judge people.
Warrant.
Sheriff's department.
Something tells
me they're not yours.
[Vic] Hey!
Rosa just jumped out the window.
Stop right there!
[Rosa yelping]
Look, hear... hear me out, Walt.
I... I know how this looks.
But the innocent
party here is Rosa.
Most innocent people don't
jump out the window and run.
[Jeremiah] She's afraid she's
being deported.
Thinks cause her
husband up and died...
...she's not a citizen anymore.
Told her it ain't so, but she
won't listen to me.
Sheriff, I didn't mean to...
...interfere with your
investigation, but somebody's...
...got to look
out for this girl here.
You seem to care
an awful lot about Rosa.
I care more about my business.
I guarantee all my girls
they're gonna be safe...
...from police harassment.
[Branch] It helps if your girls
don't murder their husbands.
I never kill Marko.
He was a good man.
He gave me a house, new life.
[Vic] We searched Marko's house.
No one was living there but him.
No.
I visit once.
It... was a beautiful land.
But... Marko was scared
of what his brothers say, so...
...we decide I could go live
at the hotel, and...
...when Marko sell his land,
we could get a new house...
...together.
Marko was selling his land.
You didn't think
to mention that?
I thought about it.
Who was he selling it to?
No idea.
I think they conned him.
Jeremiah convinces Marko to sell
his land to get the girl...
...they kill Marko,
Rosa inherits...
...she and Jeremiah
split the profits.
Need to confirm that Marko
was selling his land first.
Well, I'll head over to
the county clerk's office...
...see if anyone was pulling
permits on the land.
- Any luck with the canteen?
- No, but I'll keep looking.
Also, get some search warrants
for Jeremiah's office...
...Rosa's hotel room.
Look for any types of poison.
Meantime, I'd say those
two are a flight risk.
- Let's lock them up for a bit.
- What about Marko's brothers?
Rosa said Marko
was afraid of them.
If he was selling the family
land and they found out...
...they'd have reason
to be pissed.
Yeah.
When your mother, uh,
left the hospital after her...
...chemo treatment
around 8:00...
she stopped into this cafe.
The waitress said
she ordered a cup of tea.
About 30 minutes later, she
left, heading back to the hotel.
Her attacker came
from this alleyway.
Somewhere in the scuffle,
he stabbed her twice...
...and took off.
Is this where she died?
[Fales] No. She survived
the initial stabbing.
She died a few hours later.
The hospital managed to
get a hold of your father.
He was with her when she passed.
Did you ever catch the guy?
That's why I came
to Absaroka last month.
We did find him... dead.
I want to see his face.
[Sheep bleating]
[Dog barking]
Easy. Come.
He tends to get aggressive
around outsiders.
Just stopped by Costa's house.
Amaya told us we could
find you two up here.
Is Costa around?
We need to speak to both of you.
According to this...
...Costa left a day
ago for the north pasture.
That's six miles that way.
[Vic] What are all those markings?
70 years of my family's
work is written on this land.
Any of this land
belong to Marko?
When my father died...
...he divided the land
between the three of us...
...but we work it together...
equally.
We spoke to some people said
Marko was planning to sell.
Those people lied.
[Walt] Oh, it's possible
he didn't tell you.
Seem to be a few things
he's kept from you...
...like the fact that he
married that girl from Ecuador.
It's strange that
he never mentioned that.
Maybe he was afraid
of how you'd react.
I told him that was a mistake.
Little basati was foolish
when it came to some things.
But there are certain things...
...even he was not
foolish enough to do.
He would never sell this
land behind our backs.
Too many have tried to
steal it in the past.
- Like who, exactly?
- Lumber companies.
They cut down our trees
without permission...
drive their logging trucks
through our pastures.
You asked before
about our enemies.
Those people.
They are our enemies.
- Is that a spring?
- Our land is full of them.
- Freshest water you'll ever...
- Walt!
Hang on! Hang on!
Hang on.
Are there any springs
like this...
...near where we found
your brother?
Show me.
This weather is insane.
We only went up, like,
100 feet in elevation.
It's Wyoming. [grunts]
What are those? Weeds?
It's hemlock.
Looks like we found our poison.
Hey. Check it out.
It's our new poker-chip design.
Just came in today.
- [Laughs] It's nice.
- Keep it.
So, I've been seeing your
new television ads...
...all over the place. Good to
see you putting the campaign...
...funds to use.
Trust you're getting
everything you need.
Yes. Thank you.
But I've actually come
about something else today.
What's that?
Big Pines Timber recently pulled
the permit...
...on a piece of property
I was looking into.
When I checked to see
who owned the company...
...I was surprised to see
your name on the board.
Oh, I assumed you knew.
My boys at the lumber yard did
just throw you a campaign rally.
I thought you were
just a casino developer.
I had no idea you were
in the timber business.
I prefer to remain
a silent partner.
White people get nervous...
...when Indians start
taking back their land.
Why were you looking
into the company?
The land Big Pines
Timber was looking to buy...
...belonged to a Basque sheep
herder... Marko Vayas.
He was recently found dead.
Well, that sounds tragic.
I've heard Marko may have
been reconsidering the sale.
How badly did your
company want that land?
Are you accusing me
of something, Branch?
Jacob, I'm sure it's just
a coincidence, but...
...a dead body turning up in
the middle of a business deal...
...is bad P.R.
I know you don't need that,
so...
...I'm here to discuss
it with you privately.
But if you don't give me
anything...
...sooner or later,
Walt will come knocking.
Well, I can tell you that our
company has wanted that...
...parcel for quite some time.
Mr. Vayas rejected our
first two offers...
...but I thought we were
finally nearing a deal.
So, his death now, in fact,
poses a problem for us.
- Thanks.
- You bet.
What can you tell me
about the case?
You got suspects, witnesses?
Do you know who
inherits Marko's land?
I can't give you details
about an ongoing investigation.
Branch...
...I didn't donate
$100,000 to your campaign...
...because I like your smile.
I was up at Marko's
wells looking for hemlock...
...and, uh, these are some of
the cuttings that I took.
This is elderberry.
It's almost identical
to hemlock...
...except for the berries,
obviously.
Oh, and it won't kill you.
And how exactly
does that help us?
Well, I didn't actually
find hemlock by the wells...
...but I just thought
it might be...
...useful to see
what it sort of looks like.
You get anything from
Jeremiah's house or the motel?
No poison, no canteen.
Jeremiah and Rosa
are still in jail.
It's been almost 24 hours.
If we want to hold them,
we're gonna have to...
...charge them with something.
Jeremiah's lawyer's...
...already on his way here.
All right. Release them, Ferg.
Before you do...
...impound their cars and have
Rosa surrender her passport.
What's all this?
Turns out Marko was
killed by hemlock.
He's probably the only person...
...that died from
it since Socrates.
- All right, I Googled it.
- Poison's nothing new.
Back when the railroad
was coming through...
...the U.S. Army used to...
...poison Indian wells
on occasion...
...to kill the natives and
take their land, so...
But Marko's brothers were
the only ones...
...who knew where
that well was.
Not the only ones.
Rosa said she spent some
time on the property.
Marko could have showed
her the well...
...showing off the estate
to his bride to be...
...or anyone looking to buy
the property could have...
...done some surveying,
found the well that way.
You find anything at the
county clerk's office?
Yeah.
Big Pines Timber was
trying to buy Marko's land.
Spoke with an official
from the company...
...who said Marko rejected
the first couple offers...
...but looks like they were
close to cutting a deal.
Which official?
Spoke on the condition
of anonymity.
We're not reporters, Branch.
Big Pines Timber just called.
We got to get down there.
[Grunting]
You think you can just kill us?
You'll have to do
better than poison.
We won't die so easily.
Hey! Break it up!
Sal, get off!
Break it up!
[Shouting, grunting]
Come on.
Look.
They've already begun.
They're wiping us out.
You have to do something,
Sheriff.
- Please.
- Take him.
Any truth in what Sal's saying?
His brother came to us
wanting to sell his...
...part of their land...
...but the company thought
it would be better...
...to have the whole thing.
We made the family an offer
for all three plots a week ago.
It was a very generous offer.
A simple "no" would have
sufficed.
Is this the knife
he used to kill her?
[Fales] Yeah, we found it with his body.
Her DNA was on the blade.
I know it's tough.
I'm only sorry you had
to get all this from me.
I'm sure this would have been
easier coming from your father.
Unfortunately, he didn't
leave us much of a choice.
Well, it couldn't have been
easy for him...
...keeping something
like this from you.
You'd be surprised. He's
gotten pretty good at it.
Don't be so hard on him.
I mean, everything
you're feeling right now...
...he's had to go through it
alone.
I mean, besides you...
...he only has that friend
of his to talk to. Um...
...- uh...
- Henry.
Henry. That's right.
Is this his body?
- He didn't die of an overdose?
- No. Someone broke his neck.
Do you have any idea
who killed him?
None.
But I've been at
this a long time.
And sooner or later...
...everyone tells their secrets
to somebody.
Hey, uh, I hope all this helped.
It did, I think.
You need anything else,
feel free to call me, okay?
I don't think I'm gonna
do that. No offense.
No offense taken.
Who was that?
She was either sent here
by the...
...prime suspect in my murder
case to find out what I know,
...or she's my new best friend.
That was Costa.
Told him the situation.
He said he'd get down
here as soon as he could.
[Sal] Why am I in this cell? Why?!
It's those Timber people
that should be in here.
There's no crime trying
to buy someone's land.
We know Big Pines Timber made
offers to all your family.
That's a lie.
No one came to offer me anything.
Everything they said
so far has been true.
Whatever that Timber company
offered...
...looks like Marko
was gonna accept it.
And you would have done
just about anything...
...to stop that, wouldn't you?
[Branch] That land's been in
your family for generations.
Marko was about
to sell you all out.
You know nothing.
Nothing!
[Grunting]
Settle down!
[Panting]
You ever hear of Guernica,
Sheriff?
Yeah.
It's a Basque down in Spain.
Hitler bombed it, Picasso
made a painting about it...
...and Marko had a copy of it
in his house.
In 1937...
...Franco let Hitler use
us for target practice.
My grandparents were the only
ones of their family to survive.
Their land was gone...
destroyed.
But they had each other.
If you think I care more
about land than my brother...
...you're wrong.
But if what you're
saying is true...
...if someone killed Marko...
...over a piece of pasture...
you best pray you find them,
Sheriff.
Because if I get to them
first...
...I will rip them apart
with my bare hands.
Death came in like thunder.
[Vic] Walt?
If you're a man like Sal...
...and you wanted to kill
someone...
...you do it face-to-face.
You'd want to see
him up close...
...watch the light go
out of their eyes...
...and you wouldn't care
if you got caught.
Poison is a coward's weapon.
Killers that use
it are patient, sneaky.
They want to get away with it.
Sal doesn't fit that bill.
But there are a
few people that do.
Branch, Ferg, go find Jeremiah
and Rosa, bring them back in.
Vic, let's go see
Costa and his wife.
Now what the hell is it?
I just stopped by the
motel. Rosa's not there.
I'm guessing you
know where she is.
I don't know anything.
Rosa?
I don't see their truck.
Maybe Costa's on his way to
the station to pick up Sal?
[Over radio] Walt, it's Ferg.
I got Jeremiah in custody,
but it looks like Rosa bolted.
All right, bring Jeremiah in.
And, Branch,
keep looking for Rosa.
[Ferg] U-h, I don't know
where Branch is.
He didn't come with me.
I need to speak with Jacob.
- He's out at a business dinner.
- Where?
I know times,
I don't know places.
But I'll tell
him you dropped by.
No.
I'll tell him myself.
[Walt] Costa?
Sheriff Longmire.
[Vic] What the hell happened here?
[Walt] What did you say to
Costa when you called?
[Vic] I just told him about Sal
and the lumber company.
- There's nobody here.
- [Dog yapping]
[Vic] There's no telling
where they went.
There's someone who might know.
[Dog barking]
- [Woman yelling]
- This doesn't concern you, Sheriff!
[Walt] Pull her up! Pull her up now!
[Costa] I just wanted her
to admit what she did.
- [Woman screaming]
- [Costa] She sold us out!
[Woman screaming]
- Oh, my God!
- Amaya?
- Stay down!
- He was trying to drown me!
I wasn't trying to kill her!
[Gasping, coughing]
Yes, you were.
Holding a person's head
in a poisoned well...
...that's attempted murder
in my book.
You poisoned this well?
- I didn't. I had no idea.
- [Walt] Then how did this get here?
[Coughing]
- You swallow any of that water?
- Oh, God, I don't know.
Hemlock takes about an hour...
...to work its way
into your system.
Ambulance may not get here
in time, but if we hurry...
- Please, get me to a hospital...
- I will. I will. Not just yet.
- What?
- Walt, what the hell are you doing?
Getting to the bottom of this.
I think the person
who killed Marko...
...knew that he was trying to
sell his land.
Big Pines Timber
said you all knew.
They said they made offers
to your whole...
...family for the property.
Sal said he never got an offer.
That true for you, Costa?
No.
No! I never spoke with anyone!
That's right. You and Sal were
always with the herd.
Days at a time.
Amaya...
...you were the only one
who was home...
...when the lumber
company came...
...to make an offer
for your land.
They told you that Marko was
planning to sell his land.
You didn't tell your husband
and Sal about the offer.
You didn't tell them
what Marko was planning.
You decided to handle
the situation yourself.
I don't know
what you're talking about.
You make it look like
a heart attack...
...'cause you knew the
boys' father had died of one.
Wouldn't look strange if
Marko died the same way.
I didn't have a choice.
If Marko sold his land...
...that would mean less water,
less grazing land for the sheep.
In a year,
half our herd would be dead.
Half our income gone.
We'd be ruined.
You should have told me.
You would have done nothing.
You're weak.
He was the baby...
little basati.
You gave him anything he wanted.
Someone had to look
out for this family!
You are not our family!
You're not our blood!
Okay, enough.
Walt, this is nuts.
Let me radio the hospital,
tell them we're on our way.
Don't bother.
It's not hemlock.
Actually, this is
elderberry from my pocket.
Looks like hemlock
except for the berries.
And it won't kill you.
Found Rosa Marquez.
She was at Big Pines Timber,
signing the sale papers...
...for the land she inherited
from her late husband.
How did they find her so fast?
Hard to say.
[Phone rings]
Was there something else?
Hello?
[David] Walt?
It's David Mackey.
I got a hit off of one of
the names you mentioned.
We need to talk, Henry.
Lizzie was waiting
for you here tonight.
You should talk to her, Walt.
She seems to think she's
in a relationship with you.
[Cash register beeping]
There are certain things
that happened in Denver...
...that we've never talked
about.
Things I need to know.
♪ [rock music plays] ♪
Why now?
Detective Fales
is investigating you.
You need to tell me exactly
what happened, Henry.
You are an honest man, Walt.
I would like you
to stay that way.
I will not ask you to lie.
- It is not your job to protect me...
- It is my job...
...and I wouldn't have to
protect you at all...
...- if you had just let me...
- You tried.
And you nearly got yourself
killed in the process.
Wasn't your job to kill that man.
That was mine to do.
That was my right.
A good woman was murdered.
A bad man is dead.
End of story.
If Detective Fales insists
on investigating me...
...he's free to do so.
He will find nothing useful.
How can you be so sure?
For such a spiritual man,
Walt...
...you have a surprising
lack of faith.

[cheering]
All right, how about a
hand for Branch Connally?
[Cheering]
We wish
him better luck in the election.
[Laughter]
- I thought you had it.
- I did.
Let him win, Ferg.
[Man] Quick photo.
Come on, guys.
[Camera shutter clicking]
- [Walt] Ruby tell you where I was?
- Yes.
And she also wanted you to know
that the city council called.
They scheduled a debate
between you and Branch.
I don't remember
a debate last election.
That is because
you ran unopposed.
[Walt grunts] What?
I can tell you've got
something else you wanna say.
Only after you put down the axe.
I heard from Cady.
- She called you?
- She sent me an e-mail.
It did not say much,
only that she is safe.
This, uh, e-mail say where
she was or anything or?
If Cady had wanted me to
know, she would have said so.
She is an adult, Walt.
She's my daughter.
Walt, I am only the messenger.
[Phone rings]
Hello?
[Fales] Miss Etta Place.
Detective Fales.
I was hoping to hear from you.
[Fales] What's with the assumed name?
I like my privacy.
[Fales] I'm calling to talk
you out of doing this.
No, I need to talk to someone...
...who will tell me what
happened to my mother.
[Fales] How long are you in Denver?
As long as I have to be.
[Vic] The 911 operator said the call
came from somewhere near here.
[Walt] Blood.
Sheriff's department. Hello?
[Man] Up here. Hello?
Ohh, thank God.
What's your name, son?
I'm Robbie Colfer. It's my leg.
I think it's broken.
It's not broken.
Kneecap's dislocated.
That's impressive.
How did you manage that?
I, uh, was riding my bike
up on state park trail.
I guess I got lost.
I didn't think state park
was anywhere near here.
It isn't. Try again, Robbie.
All right,
I know I'm on private property.
But these hills are
legendary, man. I was stoked.
Then I hit a rock,
and next thing you know it...
...tail up down the mountain.
- [Laughs]
He's ass over heels. I got to
see that again. I'm sorry.
Worse news... fine for
trespassing's $500, son.
What? You got to be shitting...
[screams]
[Pants]
That's not cool, man.
It'll be tender for a bit,
but you can walk on it.
Hey, Walt.
Robbie didn't hit a rock.
No heartbeat.
[Vic] There's no head trauma.
No blood.
He has no visible wounds.
He looks pretty young.
Marko Vayas. 32 years old.
If I had to guess, I'd
say heart attack or aneurysm?
What's with the beret?
"Vayas" isn't French.
Basque... immigrants from
the mountains between...
...France and Spain.
What are they doing in Wyoming?
Uh, things got bad
in their homeland...
...around World War II, so...
...they came here
to raise sheep.
I don't see any sheep.
And I don't see his dog.
Young guy dying of
a heart attack, okay, but...
...his dog dying
at the same time's...
...a little too coincidental.
What do you think... poison?
Stop at his house.
If there's poison there, we
don't want anyone else exposed.
Robbie, got to make a stop.
[Knocking on door]
[Walt] Anyone home?
Hello?
Reclusive-bachelor chic.
You and Marko have
the same decorator.
I'll look for poison.
[Vic] There's no medications
in the cabinet, no food.
This guy obviously lived alone.
It's kind of sad, actually.
He might have some family.
We should try to notify them.
Any idea how to find them?
What's the date today?
[Music playing, crowd shouting]
Barrabilak, please.
[Woman chuckles]
Have you ever had that before?
Here you go.
Thanks.
What did you just eat?
You don't want to know.
Um... you know where we
can find the Vayas family?
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
[Crowd shouting]
[Cheering]
Costa, Sal?
Is everything all right?
- This is my wife, Amaya.
- Pleasure.
Sheriff Longmire.
W... would you join us?
Uh... [clears throat]
I understand you're
related to Marko Vayas.
Mm-hmm.
Marko is our baby brother.
He's not here, though.
He went up into the pasture...
...three days ago so we could
compete in the festival.
Have you seen or
talked to him since?
What is this about?
Sorry to tell you, we...
...found your brother dead
this morning on his property...
...near Gallitan Falls.
- Are you sure of this?
- I'm afraid so.
[Costa] What happened?
We're still trying
to figure that out.
Ah.
[Pounds table]
Can you tell us anything?
Was it an accident?
Did he die of a heart
attack or something?
Did Marko suffer from
any heart conditions?
No, not that we know
of, but it runs in the family.
Their father died a... a few
months ago from a heart attack.
We found this
picture at his house.
Is that his wife
or girlfriend or...
She's a girl in Ecuador.
Marko never met her.
He had it in his head
he was going to...
...bring her to Wyoming
to marry.
Like a mail-order bride?
We always call Marko
"basati." It means "crazy boy."
He had these wild ideas a lot...
...but he never went
through with the marriage.
We were able to talk
some sense into him.
Guess he just held
onto the picture.
I'm sorry,
but we're not done yet.
No one's watching the sheep.
Vic.
Let him go.
That was weird... Sal
just leaving like that.
I got four brothers, and
we don't always get along.
But if you told me one of
them was dead, I wouldn't...
...give a damn about any sheep.
[Vic] What you thinking?
I can't tell if Marko's
family is lying to us...
...or if Marko was
lying to his family.
- What makes you say that?
- This picture was taken here.
This girl's in Wyoming.
What's that?
Uh, this picture that Walt
found at the victim's house.
Something about it told him
it was taken from around here.
She's cute.
Got a nice smile.
[Chuckles]
More than I can
say for some people.
Try cracking a grin next time.
Ohh.
[Man on phone] National crime information
center. This is David Mackey.
David, this is Sheriff
Longmire, Absaroka County.
I need you to run a name
through the computer for me...
...Marko Vayas.
I'm curious if any other
law-enforcement agency's...
...ever run his
name for anything.
Sure, I'll check the database.
Now, listen... while
I got you on the phone, uh...
...has there been any hit
on that...
...name I gave
you a while back?
Sheriff, I told you before...
...if anyone looks into this
Henry "Standing Bear" guy...
...I'll call you. Okay?
- I appreciate it.
- No problem.
[Ferg] I got it.
- It's the mountain.
- Nope. It's the bird.
- [Ferg] A red-tip meadowlark.
- Yeah. Wyoming native.
Don't go much further
south than the Bighorns.
Come out to the pasture
this time of year to eat...
...the clover that
grows in the sheep droppings.
So, the picture could have
been taken on Marko's land.
[Walt] You get anything
from the biker's video?
[Ferg] Uh, no.
Besides the crash, there's
really nothing to see.
It's about two hours long.
I watched it in fast forward.
You go too fast, you
miss the little things.
Slow it down, watch it again.
We're not gonna get
Marko's toxicology report...
...back for a few weeks...
...and I have spent the
last two hours going through...
...100 mail order bride
websites.
Hey, Walt?
Why does she get all
the good assignments?
We need to get a hold
of Marko's computer...
...if we're ever gonna figure
out which services he used.
Marko didn't have a computer.
[Vic] How did he find the girl, then?
[Coughs]
The old-fashioned way.
"Cyrano Caballero...
Big Sky matchmaker.
- Say hola to your new bride."
- Hmm.
You know the
number-one epidemic...
...facing American men today
is heartache.
What you got is a lot
of very frustrated fellas...
...looking for a
better class of woman.
Luckily, though, right on the
other side of that border...
...you've got plenty of lovely
Latin ladies who are also...
...looking
to improve their lives.
So I put these two together,
and bingo... problemo solved.
A cure, if you will.
I can't believe men actually
pay you for this stuff.
A lot of guys actually think...
...American women
are pushy and overbearing.
Sheriff,
I couldn't help but notice...
...that you don't have a ring
on that finger. You know...
...I'd be more than
happy to offer you my services.
No. No, thank you.
A good woman goes a long way
to easing...
...some of the obvious
stresses of your daily life.
I'm seeing someone.
We're not here to talk
about his love life, okay?
Do you recognize this girl?
Oh, yeah. That's Rosa Marquez.
And a true rose she is.
Married a basquo boy by
the name of Marko Vayas.
Couldn't have been
more than a month ago.
Yeah, we spoke
to Marko's family.
They had the impression
he didn't...
...go through
with the marriage.
A lot of times, families have
a hard time understanding love.
But I can assure you
they were married.
I helped her put her
immigration papers in order...
...and I officiated
the ceremony.
Good. Then you'll have her
immigration papers...
...and her last known address.
Mm, my stuff's not
all that computerized.
Besides, I can't just give you
my client's...
...personal information.
Marko Vayas was found dead,
possibly murdered...
...and Rosa... There was
no sign of her at his house.
Oh, hold on here.
If you think that Rosa had...
...anything to do with
Marko's death...
...you got another
thing coming.
I put all my girls through
a rigorous background check...
...and I'll tell you that Rosa
is as good a girl as they come.
Jeremiah, I'm not
accusing Rosa of anything...
...but I do need
to talk to her.
I mean, I'm sorry about Marko.
My heart goes out to
his family and to Rosa.
But I'll tell you what...
...I haven't spoke to
either one of them since...
...the day they got hitched.
All right. You hear from
Rosa, give us a call.
I certainly will,
but I can assure you...
...you won't find that she had
anything to do with any of this.
Oh, Sheriff.
If things don't work out
with your lady friend...
...here's my card.
Give me a call if and when you
change your mind, all right?
I, uh, got the preliminary
autopsy report.
Marko didn't die from an
aneurysm or a heart attack.
It was respiratory
failure caused by...
...and I quote, "exposure
to an unknown substance."
Poison.
- Where are we with Rosa Marquez?
- Stuck.
Immigrations and customs
said they'd get back to me...
...on Rosa's visa info, but...
...who knows how
long that'll take, so...
Lizzie brought that by for you.
So...
What?
- Uh...
- I found something.
- Oh, sorry.
- [Phone ringing]
- Was I interrupting?
- No, that's my phone.
I think.
Uh, before I show you the video,
I just...
...I just wanted
to say that...
...about the picture
in the paper...
I wasn't there
supporting Branch.
We were on patrol.
He said he just needed to
make a stop.
I didn't know it was gonna be
for the campaign...
Ferg.
What did you find on the video?
You see that?
The biker had a bottle
of water with him.
And?
Well, if Marko was in
those hills for a while...
...he would have had
drinking water, too.
Hot day and all.
But you didn't find any.
Someone must have
poisoned his canteen...
...and took it
before you got there.
Okay.
See if you can
find that canteen.
That was immigration.
I underestimated them.
As far as they know,
Rosa hasn't left the country...
...but get this.
The address on her visa...
...it's not Marko's place.
First Mexican drug dealers,
now mail-order brides.
That's quite the clientele.
I don't judge people.
Warrant.
Sheriff's department.
Something tells
me they're not yours.
[Vic] Hey!
Rosa just jumped out the window.
Stop right there!
[Rosa yelping]
Look, hear... hear me out, Walt.
I... I know how this looks.
But the innocent
party here is Rosa.
Most innocent people don't
jump out the window and run.
[Jeremiah] She's afraid she's
being deported.
Thinks cause her
husband up and died...
...she's not a citizen anymore.
Told her it ain't so, but she
won't listen to me.
Sheriff, I didn't mean to...
...interfere with your
investigation, but somebody's...
...got to look
out for this girl here.
You seem to care
an awful lot about Rosa.
I care more about my business.
I guarantee all my girls
they're gonna be safe...
...from police harassment.
[Branch] It helps if your girls
don't murder their husbands.
I never kill Marko.
He was a good man.
He gave me a house, new life.
[Vic] We searched Marko's house.
No one was living there but him.
No.
I visit once.
It... was a beautiful land.
But... Marko was scared
of what his brothers say, so...
...we decide I could go live
at the hotel, and...
...when Marko sell his land,
we could get a new house...
...together.
Marko was selling his land.
You didn't think
to mention that?
I thought about it.
Who was he selling it to?
No idea.
I think they conned him.
Jeremiah convinces Marko to sell
his land to get the girl...
...they kill Marko,
Rosa inherits...
...she and Jeremiah
split the profits.
Need to confirm that Marko
was selling his land first.
Well, I'll head over to
the county clerk's office...
...see if anyone was pulling
permits on the land.
- Any luck with the canteen?
- No, but I'll keep looking.
Also, get some search warrants
for Jeremiah's office...
...Rosa's hotel room.
Look for any types of poison.
Meantime, I'd say those
two are a flight risk.
- Let's lock them up for a bit.
- What about Marko's brothers?
Rosa said Marko
was afraid of them.
If he was selling the family
land and they found out...
...they'd have reason
to be pissed.
Yeah.
When your mother, uh,
left the hospital after her...
...chemo treatment
around 8:00...
she stopped into this cafe.
The waitress said
she ordered a cup of tea.
About 30 minutes later, she
left, heading back to the hotel.
Her attacker came
from this alleyway.
Somewhere in the scuffle,
he stabbed her twice...
...and took off.
Is this where she died?
[Fales] No. She survived
the initial stabbing.
She died a few hours later.
The hospital managed to
get a hold of your father.
He was with her when she passed.
Did you ever catch the guy?
That's why I came
to Absaroka last month.
We did find him... dead.
I want to see his face.
[Sheep bleating]
[Dog barking]
Easy. Come.
He tends to get aggressive
around outsiders.
Just stopped by Costa's house.
Amaya told us we could
find you two up here.
Is Costa around?
We need to speak to both of you.
According to this...
...Costa left a day
ago for the north pasture.
That's six miles that way.
[Vic] What are all those markings?
70 years of my family's
work is written on this land.
Any of this land
belong to Marko?
When my father died...
...he divided the land
between the three of us...
...but we work it together...
equally.
We spoke to some people said
Marko was planning to sell.
Those people lied.
[Walt] Oh, it's possible
he didn't tell you.
Seem to be a few things
he's kept from you...
...like the fact that he
married that girl from Ecuador.
It's strange that
he never mentioned that.
Maybe he was afraid
of how you'd react.
I told him that was a mistake.
Little basati was foolish
when it came to some things.
But there are certain things...
...even he was not
foolish enough to do.
He would never sell this
land behind our backs.
Too many have tried to
steal it in the past.
- Like who, exactly?
- Lumber companies.
They cut down our trees
without permission...
drive their logging trucks
through our pastures.
You asked before
about our enemies.
Those people.
They are our enemies.
- Is that a spring?
- Our land is full of them.
- Freshest water you'll ever...
- Walt!
Hang on! Hang on!
Hang on.
Are there any springs
like this...
...near where we found
your brother?
Show me.
This weather is insane.
We only went up, like,
100 feet in elevation.
It's Wyoming. [grunts]
What are those? Weeds?
It's hemlock.
Looks like we found our poison.
Hey. Check it out.
It's our new poker-chip design.
Just came in today.
- [Laughs] It's nice.
- Keep it.
So, I've been seeing your
new television ads...
...all over the place. Good to
see you putting the campaign...
...funds to use.
Trust you're getting
everything you need.
Yes. Thank you.
But I've actually come
about something else today.
What's that?
Big Pines Timber recently pulled
the permit...
...on a piece of property
I was looking into.
When I checked to see
who owned the company...
...I was surprised to see
your name on the board.
Oh, I assumed you knew.
My boys at the lumber yard did
just throw you a campaign rally.
I thought you were
just a casino developer.
I had no idea you were
in the timber business.
I prefer to remain
a silent partner.
White people get nervous...
...when Indians start
taking back their land.
Why were you looking
into the company?
The land Big Pines
Timber was looking to buy...
...belonged to a Basque sheep
herder... Marko Vayas.
He was recently found dead.
Well, that sounds tragic.
I've heard Marko may have
been reconsidering the sale.
How badly did your
company want that land?
Are you accusing me
of something, Branch?
Jacob, I'm sure it's just
a coincidence, but...
...a dead body turning up in
the middle of a business deal...
...is bad P.R.
I know you don't need that,
so...
...I'm here to discuss
it with you privately.
But if you don't give me
anything...
...sooner or later,
Walt will come knocking.
Well, I can tell you that our
company has wanted that...
...parcel for quite some time.
Mr. Vayas rejected our
first two offers...
...but I thought we were
finally nearing a deal.
So, his death now, in fact,
poses a problem for us.
- Thanks.
- You bet.
What can you tell me
about the case?
You got suspects, witnesses?
Do you know who
inherits Marko's land?
I can't give you details
about an ongoing investigation.
Branch...
...I didn't donate
$100,000 to your campaign...
...because I like your smile.
I was up at Marko's
wells looking for hemlock...
...and, uh, these are some of
the cuttings that I took.
This is elderberry.
It's almost identical
to hemlock...
...except for the berries,
obviously.
Oh, and it won't kill you.
And how exactly
does that help us?
Well, I didn't actually
find hemlock by the wells...
...but I just thought
it might be...
...useful to see
what it sort of looks like.
You get anything from
Jeremiah's house or the motel?
No poison, no canteen.
Jeremiah and Rosa
are still in jail.
It's been almost 24 hours.
If we want to hold them,
we're gonna have to...
...charge them with something.
Jeremiah's lawyer's...
...already on his way here.
All right. Release them, Ferg.
Before you do...
...impound their cars and have
Rosa surrender her passport.
What's all this?
Turns out Marko was
killed by hemlock.
He's probably the only person...
...that died from
it since Socrates.
- All right, I Googled it.
- Poison's nothing new.
Back when the railroad
was coming through...
...the U.S. Army used to...
...poison Indian wells
on occasion...
...to kill the natives and
take their land, so...
But Marko's brothers were
the only ones...
...who knew where
that well was.
Not the only ones.
Rosa said she spent some
time on the property.
Marko could have showed
her the well...
...showing off the estate
to his bride to be...
...or anyone looking to buy
the property could have...
...done some surveying,
found the well that way.
You find anything at the
county clerk's office?
Yeah.
Big Pines Timber was
trying to buy Marko's land.
Spoke with an official
from the company...
...who said Marko rejected
the first couple offers...
...but looks like they were
close to cutting a deal.
Which official?
Spoke on the condition
of anonymity.
We're not reporters, Branch.
Big Pines Timber just called.
We got to get down there.
[Grunting]
You think you can just kill us?
You'll have to do
better than poison.
We won't die so easily.
Hey! Break it up!
Sal, get off!
Break it up!
[Shouting, grunting]
Come on.
Look.
They've already begun.
They're wiping us out.
You have to do something,
Sheriff.
- Please.
- Take him.
Any truth in what Sal's saying?
His brother came to us
wanting to sell his...
...part of their land...
...but the company thought
it would be better...
...to have the whole thing.
We made the family an offer
for all three plots a week ago.
It was a very generous offer.
A simple "no" would have
sufficed.
Is this the knife
he used to kill her?
[Fales] Yeah, we found it with his body.
Her DNA was on the blade.
I know it's tough.
I'm only sorry you had
to get all this from me.
I'm sure this would have been
easier coming from your father.
Unfortunately, he didn't
leave us much of a choice.
Well, it couldn't have been
easy for him...
...keeping something
like this from you.
You'd be surprised. He's
gotten pretty good at it.
Don't be so hard on him.
I mean, everything
you're feeling right now...
...he's had to go through it
alone.
I mean, besides you...
...he only has that friend
of his to talk to. Um...
...- uh...
- Henry.
Henry. That's right.
Is this his body?
- He didn't die of an overdose?
- No. Someone broke his neck.
Do you have any idea
who killed him?
None.
But I've been at
this a long time.
And sooner or later...
...everyone tells their secrets
to somebody.
Hey, uh, I hope all this helped.
It did, I think.
You need anything else,
feel free to call me, okay?
I don't think I'm gonna
do that. No offense.
No offense taken.
Who was that?
She was either sent here
by the...
...prime suspect in my murder
case to find out what I know,
...or she's my new best friend.
That was Costa.
Told him the situation.
He said he'd get down
here as soon as he could.
[Sal] Why am I in this cell? Why?!
It's those Timber people
that should be in here.
There's no crime trying
to buy someone's land.
We know Big Pines Timber made
offers to all your family.
That's a lie.
No one came to offer me anything.
Everything they said
so far has been true.
Whatever that Timber company
offered...
...looks like Marko
was gonna accept it.
And you would have done
just about anything...
...to stop that, wouldn't you?
[Branch] That land's been in
your family for generations.
Marko was about
to sell you all out.
You know nothing.
Nothing!
[Grunting]
Settle down!
[Panting]
You ever hear of Guernica,
Sheriff?
Yeah.
It's a Basque down in Spain.
Hitler bombed it, Picasso
made a painting about it...
...and Marko had a copy of it
in his house.
In 1937...
...Franco let Hitler use
us for target practice.
My grandparents were the only
ones of their family to survive.
Their land was gone...
destroyed.
But they had each other.
If you think I care more
about land than my brother...
...you're wrong.
But if what you're
saying is true...
...if someone killed Marko...
...over a piece of pasture...
you best pray you find them,
Sheriff.
Because if I get to them
first...
...I will rip them apart
with my bare hands.
Death came in like thunder.
[Vic] Walt?
If you're a man like Sal...
...and you wanted to kill
someone...
...you do it face-to-face.
You'd want to see
him up close...
...watch the light go
out of their eyes...
...and you wouldn't care
if you got caught.
Poison is a coward's weapon.
Killers that use
it are patient, sneaky.
They want to get away with it.
Sal doesn't fit that bill.
But there are a
few people that do.
Branch, Ferg, go find Jeremiah
and Rosa, bring them back in.
Vic, let's go see
Costa and his wife.
Now what the hell is it?
I just stopped by the
motel. Rosa's not there.
I'm guessing you
know where she is.
I don't know anything.
Rosa?
I don't see their truck.
Maybe Costa's on his way to
the station to pick up Sal?
[Over radio] Walt, it's Ferg.
I got Jeremiah in custody,
but it looks like Rosa bolted.
All right, bring Jeremiah in.
And, Branch,
keep looking for Rosa.
[Ferg] U-h, I don't know
where Branch is.
He didn't come with me.
I need to speak with Jacob.
- He's out at a business dinner.
- Where?
I know times,
I don't know places.
But I'll tell
him you dropped by.
No.
I'll tell him myself.
[Walt] Costa?
Sheriff Longmire.
[Vic] What the hell happened here?
[Walt] What did you say to
Costa when you called?
[Vic] I just told him about Sal
and the lumber company.
- There's nobody here.
- [Dog yapping]
[Vic] There's no telling
where they went.
There's someone who might know.
[Dog barking]
- [Woman yelling]
- This doesn't concern you, Sheriff!
[Walt] Pull her up! Pull her up now!
[Costa] I just wanted her
to admit what she did.
- [Woman screaming]
- [Costa] She sold us out!
[Woman screaming]
- Oh, my God!
- Amaya?
- Stay down!
- He was trying to drown me!
I wasn't trying to kill her!
[Gasping, coughing]
Yes, you were.
Holding a person's head
in a poisoned well...
...that's attempted murder
in my book.
You poisoned this well?
- I didn't. I had no idea.
- [Walt] Then how did this get here?
[Coughing]
- You swallow any of that water?
- Oh, God, I don't know.
Hemlock takes about an hour...
...to work its way
into your system.
Ambulance may not get here
in time, but if we hurry...
- Please, get me to a hospital...
- I will. I will. Not just yet.
- What?
- Walt, what the hell are you doing?
Getting to the bottom of this.
I think the person
who killed Marko...
...knew that he was trying to
sell his land.
Big Pines Timber
said you all knew.
They said they made offers
to your whole...
...family for the property.
Sal said he never got an offer.
That true for you, Costa?
No.
No! I never spoke with anyone!
That's right. You and Sal were
always with the herd.
Days at a time.
Amaya...
...you were the only one
who was home...
...when the lumber
company came...
...to make an offer
for your land.
They told you that Marko was
planning to sell his land.
You didn't tell your husband
and Sal about the offer.
You didn't tell them
what Marko was planning.
You decided to handle
the situation yourself.
I don't know
what you're talking about.
You make it look like
a heart attack...
...'cause you knew the
boys' father had died of one.
Wouldn't look strange if
Marko died the same way.
I didn't have a choice.
If Marko sold his land...
...that would mean less water,
less grazing land for the sheep.
In a year,
half our herd would be dead.
Half our income gone.
We'd be ruined.
You should have told me.
You would have done nothing.
You're weak.
He was the baby...
little basati.
You gave him anything he wanted.
Someone had to look
out for this family!
You are not our family!
You're not our blood!
Okay, enough.
Walt, this is nuts.
Let me radio the hospital,
tell them we're on our way.
Don't bother.
It's not hemlock.
Actually, this is
elderberry from my pocket.
Looks like hemlock
except for the berries.
And it won't kill you.
Found Rosa Marquez.
She was at Big Pines Timber,
signing the sale papers...
...for the land she inherited
from her late husband.
How did they find her so fast?
Hard to say.
[Phone rings]
Was there something else?
Hello?
[David] Walt?
It's David Mackey.
I got a hit off of one of
the names you mentioned.
We need to talk, Henry.
Lizzie was waiting
for you here tonight.
You should talk to her, Walt.
She seems to think she's
in a relationship with you.
[Cash register beeping]
There are certain things
that happened in Denver...
...that we've never talked
about.
Things I need to know.
♪ [rock music plays] ♪
Why now?
Detective Fales
is investigating you.
You need to tell me exactly
what happened, Henry.
You are an honest man, Walt.
I would like you
to stay that way.
I will not ask you to lie.
- It is not your job to protect me...
- It is my job...
...and I wouldn't have to
protect you at all...
...- if you had just let me...
- You tried.
And you nearly got yourself
killed in the process.
Wasn't your job to kill that man.
That was mine to do.
That was my right.
A good woman was murdered.
A bad man is dead.
End of story.
If Detective Fales insists
on investigating me...
...he's free to do so.
He will find nothing useful.
How can you be so sure?
For such a spiritual man,
Walt...
...you have a surprising
lack of faith.
