Outsiders (2016–2017): Season 2, Episode 13 - Unbroken Chain - full transcript
No one is safe from the wrath of the mountain.
Previously on Outsiders:
Cause of death is asphyxiation by
strangulation, manner of death, suicide.
- What's this up here?
- A bump on the back of the head.
I need to ask you about
those jars that she had.
- Jars? LAB TECH:
An enhanced version...
of Agent Orange.
Like in Vietnam?
This stuff's been modified to
absorb through the root system...
- in addition to its defoliant properties.
- Dynamite arrived yesterday.
They're keeping it stored at a
construction site outside of town.
They'll carve a path for their troops,
their machines, whatever they want.
What the hell?
In the cage, that's when I saw
my kin. They were all looking at me.
- I don't know what's going on up there.
- Go to them.
Be right here waiting for
you when you get back.
Let's not just steal
dynamite, let's use it on that.
- You helped them steal it.
- I did what I had to do.
- I gained their trust.
- You were supposed to bring us info.
Catching the Farrells stealing
dynamite, that's gonna get you nowhere.
Catching them in a terrorist
act, now, that's a guarantee.
You are no Bren'in to me.
You'll be the death of this
ancient clan, Foster Farrell VI.
We are at war.
And it is a war
that I intend to win.
A right change is on us.
- Can you feel that?
- Well, I can feel this 'shine...
swirling around my insides is
what I can feel right now. Ha-ha-ha.
There's a reckoning coming.
And I can't have no more
children around. Got it?
I need men now.
- We're with you, Foster.
- Oh, is that right?
- How far are you willing to go?
- As far as you need us to.
There's a warehouse
full of their war machines.
Set to come up here
and blow us all to hell.
It's around the other side of
Mount Vernon at the old mine.
We're taking that dyno...
and we are blowing it all up.
We're gonna end
this once and for all.
Does Bren'in know?
Let me tell you
something, cousin.
Our Bren'in...
she is the most goodhearted
woman ever to grace this hill.
But a good heart, in a time
of war, can only lead to ruin.
Now, from here on...
I decide how we fight...
and how we win this war.
So I'm gonna ask you again.
Are you with me, or
I gotta do this alone?

You're saying Myers
had her killed because...
She found out they were
poisoning Shay Mountain?
I'm saying I don't know.
Maybe it was a mistake.
Maybe...
Maybe they come in, right?
They come in to take the jars.
Things went bad, there's
a struggle, and she fell.
She hit her head on the table...
- Wade, hold it.
- The ME confirmed it's her hair.
It's her blood on it.
They take her to the bathroom,
string her up, make it look like suicide.
All's I know, I got to go
state's attorney on this.
Can you prove the chemicals in those
samples came from Shay Mountain?
No? Can you prove that
One Planet purchased them?
- Or that they came from the state?
- No, no, but...
But we have the photographs.
- On her phone?
- The photographs on her phone show...
All those show is that
she took a hike, Wade.
Now, look, I agree
with you. I agree.
These people are
capable of killing her.
And they are
poisoning this town.
But if you want to go after them, really
take them down, you gotta get it all.
E-mails, phone records, purchase
orders, invoices, everything.
And until that time, Wade, listen
to me here, you gotta be careful.
All right? You got a
family to look out for.
We just know that he was
the last person to see her.
You think that Gordon had
something to do with Haylie?
- No, look, look...
- And you think that she was murdered?
We don't know. I need to know
everything you know about him.
You said he lived all
over the place, right?
Yeah, protesting. WADE:
Okay, he tell you where exactly?
Um, uh, there was that
Creek River dam in Oregon.
Okay. LEDDA: A
fracking thing in Montana.
Okay.
A pipeline in East Texas
that he talked about.
I'm sorry it's late, but I
got things to say to you.
Speak.
You know what my fa is doing.
That he's got his believers.
Those numbers are growing. I'm
afraid they're fixing to turn on you.
Foster, I can't and I
won't be the Bren'in of war.
- I know you can't.
- So, what do you want me to do?
I loathed you.
I've adored you.
I've forgotten about you.
But still, I love you.
I don't know.
I don't know, G'Win.
Come away with me.
We'll find some other mountain,
raise our baby in peace.
Everything's different. I can't
feel nothing but care for you now.
For you, and him or her.
It's a her.
You know we
can't leave this hill.
Then I'm begging you.
Give it up.
What?
That Oak.
It ain't caused nothing but pain
and death to anybody who's carried it.
Give it up, G'Win.
I can't do that either.
- Hey, Matt.
- Hey.
Got a minute? I got your e-mail.
- This a good time? I could come back.
- No, Wade, come in.
Pretty much got everything tied up on
the whole Haylie Grimes thing, you know.
A few loose ends,
but I think I'm gonna...
you know, have all the paperwork
in before the end of the day.
- Just thought I'd let you know.
- That's great news, Wade.
- Glad those issues got cleared up.
- She did have a few enemies, you know.
There was that hippie
guy, the eco guy.
Threw the coal dust
on her at that parade.
- Gordon Jerrod.
- I don't know him.
If you don't know him, then how
come I saw you with him last night?
- You following me, Wade?
- Yeah.
- Seems like I got good reason to.
- I wanted to loop you in.
- You wanted to loop me in?
- Yes, but I couldn't.
State's orders.
This has got something to do
with the fact he's wanted by the FBI?
He's a domestic terrorist? You
think I wouldn't figure that out?
He's just a kid who got
in with the wrong crowd.
And so we're using
that to our advantage.
What the hell's that
supposed to mean?
We believe the Farrells may have
stolen dynamite from a construction site.
He's been heading up the
mountain, infiltrating them...
When the hell was I
gonna hear about it?
- Easy. The ATF is on it, okay?
- When were you gonna tell me?
There's nothing I could
do. It's federal jurisdiction.
My job is protecting this town.
If there's any threat, I'm the
first who's supposed to know.
And now you do.
Bren'in?
Hasil.
You're back?
- I know I've been gone for a while, but...
- What happened to you?
Well, I had a premonition.
A feeling that something was going on
up here and that maybe y'all need me.
You plan on being
back here for good?
No, I mean, me and Sally-Ann,
we're gonna, um, have the baby.
So I gotta go back down.
As you should.
- Right.
- Hasil?
Big Foster and his
boys stole dynamite.
What you mean, dynamite?
What they gonna do with that?
I don't know. If we let
them go off on some plan...
this mountain won't be
home to nobody no more.
You owe it to me and your family
to find out where they're hiding it.
Can you do that for me?
- Yes, ma'am.
- I can trust you, right?
Of course you can, for certain.
We ain't got much time. Someone's
gotta do it. It's gonna be me.
Them roads ain't safe. You're
looking at 20 miles through the trees.
By foot, that's a day.
Probably two for you, old man.
We gotta go to that mine
to verify them photos...
that kid showed us.
Well, that's some...
- Lookie here.
- Huh. Look who's back.
Mind if I join you?
Been a while since I
took y'all at black and red.
Don't usually
let townies sit in.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
That was me that saved your
ass the other night in that store...
when the soldier boy
was shooting at you.
Thank you, cousin.
You did that? You?
I did do that.
What the hell happened to you?
Doesn't matter.
Heard I missed
some fine cavortings.
- Queen. Okay.
- The ten.
Heard y'all went on a night run.
Stole some dyno from a
construction site. That true?
- Jack.
- It's true, we did. And who told you?
Eh...
Word gets around.
You know. Ahem.
Cousin.
You're hurt pretty good.
You up to earning your
graces back with us?
- You know I am.
- You bring them lostie clothes back?
I don't wear nothing
like that up here.
He ain't talking about
wearing them up here, cousin.
Look, the whole thing's simple.
You just stick that right there, okay?
And this here.
That's what blows it. Okay?
Stick it in, hook them
up, you got your fireworks.
He's right.
Big building looks empty,
but it's full of machines.
- Military equipment. Helicopters.
- Like them photos.
- Guards?
- I saw two guys. Didn't see no guards.
One thing's for sure though,
something's going on down there.
- It don't feel right.
- Uh-huh.
Don't feel right at all.
- Jesus Christ.
- Hey, sheriff. Looking for me?
Yeah. We need to talk, Gordon.
Or Tim. Whatever your name is.
I figured you'd be in
uniform, ready to arrest me...
- but you aren't, are you?
- Why do you think that is?
- Because of Haylie Grimes.
- What about her?
- You think I killed her.
- You are wanted for murder.
I had nothing to do with that.
I know you know that, or else you'd
be pointing a gun at me right now.
You know who killed her?
That what you're saying?
We both do. We're dealing with
some really bad people here, sheriff.
I know. So why were you
talking to them last night?
Who? Matt Myers?
He found out about
my aliases, my warrant...
- and he's threatening to blackmail me.
- What for?
To get intel on the Farrells.
What about?
They stole a bunch of
dynamite from a construction site.
But he told you
about that, right?
Just know Matt Myers and his friends
don't know what they think they know.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- It means that...
I still have to play ball, or
else they're gonna turn me in.
But don't worry.
- We're still gonna get what we want.
- What's that exactly?
Want proof they had something
to do with Haylie? I have it.
I malwared their computers
about a week ago.
The state, One Planet,
they contracted them...
to go poison their
water and their soil.
Haylie Grimes found out, threatened
to go public, call the state's attorney.
Well, why don't you
just release it, then?
Hell, if I did that,
they'd kill me too.
What do I get
out of this exactly?
You get all the e-mails and documents it
takes to save this town, that mountain...
and make it a peaceful,
decent place to live.
Same way it was when
you were a little boy.
- Aren't you gonna take your camper?
- Oh, that's not my camper, sheriff.
It's Gordon's.
You are starting to sound
a lot like your cousins, Hasil.
Scared of something you
don't even know is real.
I've seen those machines
with my own eyes.
They're real, and we have to do
something before they turn them on us.
I see it.
You're siding with Big
Foster and his boys.
I respect your wishes as
Bren'in without question...
but I ask your
ladyship to consider...
- Hasil, I needed to trust you.
- Bren'in, all that I'm saying is that...
Just go. Just get out.
Now.
I still don't understand why
you didn't talk to me about this.
Actually, that was my call.
And I apologize for not bringing you
into the loop earlier on this, sheriff...
but we had some
SOP's we had to follow.
I don't understand how keeping
my department in the dark...
makes the people of this town
safe. You think we're idiots?
We're gonna go put
this up on Instabook?
- We gotta try to work together on this.
- Absolutely.
Which is why I am officially
informing you and the entire county...
that at this time we have
credible, actionable intelligence...
that domestic terrorism is
being perpetrated in this area.
And that the target is
the One Planet office.
- Who's gonna do that?
- A radicalized group.
A radicalized group? The Farrells
with the dynamite they stole?
- Did you hear this from Gordon Jerrod?
- Yeah.
They're planning on blowing
up the One Planet offices.
He sent us a conversation
recorded on his phone.
It just doesn't seem like their
MO. That'd be game over for them.
They did just shoot an
off-duty cop a few days ago.
No, they did not. The ballistics
have not come back on that.
That's not conclusive. It may
well have been our vigilante.
So when's this credible, actionable
evidence tell you this is gonna happen?
We don't know that. We're
waiting to hear from our source.
Okay, well, thanks for the
talk. And keep me in the loop.
Nice to meet you.
Hey, Ledda?
Five-four-one...
One-two-eight-three-three-seven-five.
I learned about this site
from a Ukrainian 13-year-old.
- Oh, really?
- Technically...
not legal without the
owner's "permish"...
but this is the dark
web, my friend.
- You cool?
- Yeah.
What's this?
Looks like he went up Shay
Mountain a couple times.
- What's this here?
- Mmm...
Somewheres up near Route
53, far side of Vernon Mountain.
It looks like he made three
trips up there in the last four days.
Let the Circle begin.
Our former Bren'in, Lady Ray...
her spirit is among us.
Her message was
and always will be:
"We must not become
the evil we deplore.
We must continue to
live as we always have...
as warriors of peace...
not initiators of
violence and hatred."
There's one among
us who does not agree.
The one who killed
our Lady Ray...
and who still tries with all
his might to crush her spirit.
Now, against my wishes,
Big Foster has stolen fire.
And not just guns
this time but dynamite.
And he plans to use those bombs against
the coal powers to destroy their property.
But remember, every time he
has acted from bluster and conceit...
he has failed, and
lives have been lost.
His own son, Elon.
Shurn's boy, Tice.
Enoch.
An unbroken chain of misery.
And I cannot allow
any more of us to die.
And so I call for the immediate
banishment of Foster Farrell VI.
Better late than never.
I hate to have to remind...
our Bren'in that too many
of our precious family...
have been murdered
under her care.
We lived on this mountain
over two centuries.
And, no, not always in peace.
We paid in blood, dearly,
as the Bren'in well knows.
Now, we have seen photographs,
and Hasil, he's seen with his own eyes...
the terrible machines
of war and destruction...
they've gathered to fight us.
And we've heard that
their attack is coming soon.
Maybe in days. Now, they were
gonna explode our south ridge...
with our dynamite that we stole.
And bring those machines, drive
them right here to this very spot.
Now, our greatest
weapon is surprise.
That's right.
- That's right.
- So if we gonna live...
beyond this winter and our
kin yet born are to follow us...
then we have no
choice but to hit first...
and hard...
and with haste.
I'm afraid he's
right, we got to.
Now, wars are
won, wars are lost...
but in the end, the stories are told by
those who had the courage to fight...
and not wait for doom.
Yeah!
I'm in agreement
with our Bren'in.
This man's actions will only
continue to exacerbate our troubles.
Bren'in, I am and always
have been a loyal supporter.
But if half of what Big Foster says is true,
I can see we have no choice but to fight...
and fight with
everything we got.
When my boy Tice died
because of his darkness...
I hated him with all my being.
But when you
failed to banish him...
I felt it was the most fatal of
mistakes a Bren'in could make.
He is a devil inside.
I know that, but these times...
might be the ones where a
devil is what we need the most.
Yeah!
Elders, what say you?
The sentiments of this clan...
and of we the Elders...
are in agreement.
Bren'in, respectfully, we
believe there is little choice...
but to allow desperate measures
to be taken by these men.
But on one condition.
If you should fail in this...
or if any more of your boys get
killed or hurt in this raid of yours...
you will agree to banishment
without a Circle called.
We will risk all
to save this clan...
but I cannot make a promise to you
or to any of us that life will not be lost.
But if I fail in destroying
them war machines...
then yes.
Yes, I will not dare even
set foot on this hill again.
I will banish myself
from this mountain...
and from this clan...
from that day forevermore.
However, if we succeed...
if I am able to make my
way back to this paradise...
and to all my beautiful kin...
then things will
change among us.
They will change.
That's right. - Yeah!
Look at this.
This is the old Greenpoint Mine.
Dad used to work here, remember?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, we tried to get them
to clean up that sludge pond.
Well, Gordon's been out there
three times the past few days.
Got any idea why he'd do that?
No.
Yeah, okay.
Listen, what I'm about to tell
you, I never told you. Okay?
Gordon called the staties,
told them Farrells will attack...
One Planet tonight.
But I...
But I think it's something
to do with this mine.
Well, like what?
Listen, I don't
know, but just...
I want you and the
kids to stay here.
In the house, until I get back. I
mean that. You don't go anywhere.
Hey, Wade.
Yeah?
That's it down there.
Where those trucks all were.
You were right. I
don't see any guards.
All right, that
digger right there.
We're gonna go from there.
Phil'up, you're covering us.
- Yeah? Good.
- Mm.
Well, come on, come
on, come on. Get going.
- Something's going on inside.
- We're moving in.
Intruders, seven males,
about 60 yards out.
Repeat, 6-0 from base. Copy.
Let's go. MAN 2: Take
your team to alpha.
- Let's go, boys.
- Let's go. Go.
Go, go, go.
Go, go, go.
Go, go, go.
Shit.
All right, everybody
down! Get down!
Everybody down!
Get out of there!
Trevor! Trevor!
Levon!
Get out of there!
Don't shoot!
Please! Don't shoot!
- I give up! BIG
FOSTER: Oh, come on.
I give up! Don't shoot me! Don't shoot!
- Barnabis.
Barnabis...
Oh, shit! Goddamn it.
Hasil, come on, boy. Come on.
Come on, boy. I got you.
Come on. Get up.
Come on, get them lights.
Come on. Let's go.
Wait! Stop.
Don't shoot.
Don't shoot.
- I'm not here to arrest you.
- What are you doing?
- Here to help...
- You ain't helping. Get in your car.
- Don't you touch that.
- Wait, wait, Fa, stop!
- No, Fa! Fa, wait! BIG
FOSTER: Get out of here!
- Want to die? Want to die?
- I trust him!
He's dying! He's
dying. I trust him.
I trust him! Come on.
- Look. Look.
- Come on.
Okay?
- Where'd he get him?
- He's gut shot.
Okay, we can stem the bleeding,
but we gotta get him to a doctor.
- No hospitals.
- No, no, no.
I'll get him to someone who
can help. If we leave him, he'll die.
Can y'all carry him? Carry him to my car.
- Come on, then.
Come on, come on, come on.
Here.
You need to put
pressure here, okay?
Here, get your hands
on there. Keep pressure.
There's only one way you're
gonna get out of here alive.
Leave your bikes.
Stay off the roads.
You need to go around
the sluice into that valley.
You'll get to Shay Mountain.
Sheriff.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Let's move.
Ledda, Ledda. It's Wade here,
okay? Listen to me. I need you...
to call your friend Polly,
okay? The nurse. Just call her.
Wake her up. Get her to our house.
I got a kid dying on me here, okay?
Call her. Get her
over there now.
It's this road here.
What was that?
I've seen this before.
I've been here.
I dream of this place
every damn night.
I dreamt of that.
I dreamt of that busting
up, busting apart.
And all them waters
drowning everything.
How many sticks
we got left? Huh?
- I got this.
- All right. You?
Yeah, I got a couple.
Okay. Follow me.
I got no idea how
long this will burn.
But you guys, you're going back.
I'm gonna light it. I'm
gonna meet you there.
Foster, why don't
you let me do this?
I'm quicker than you, old man.
- No, no.
I got too much blood
on my hands as it is.
If anybody else ain't gonna make it
back it's gonna be me, not you two boys.
- Fa!
- Foster.
Fa!
- Foster.
- Fa?
Fa!
All right.
- You all right?
- I'm all right.
It weren't enough
to bust the dam.
- All right, come on.
- No, no, no.
Go on, go on, go on.
Get up in them woods, all right?
Spend the night. Walk from there.
- What? Let's go.
- What about you?
- No. I cannot go.
- Can't leave you here.
- I cannot go. You know that.
All right? Get going.
Go on.
Look.
Look.
That's Elon.
That's Elon.
Elon?
Hey! Elon!
Hi, boy! Hello!
Hey, hey! It's me!
You gotta get off there, okay?
- You gotta get away from there!
- Wait, wait. Fa, it's okay.
It's okay. He was there.
He was in my dream too.
We gotta go.
- We gotta go now.
- We gotta go.
- No, now! Come on! Fa!
- We gotta go.
- Let's go!
- We gotta go, come on.
That's Elon.
We need to go.
Now. MAN 2: Cut it.
Let's go. Let's
go, go, go! Move!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Elon.
Elon, thank you.
Thank you, Elon.
Sheriff, what are you
gonna do about it?
FEMA is calling the
worst coal slurry disaster...
in three decades, spilling,
literally, billions of gallons...
of black waste water across 53
and into the Greenpoint Creek.
The cause of the
impoundment dam break...
has not been
verified at this time...
but Kentucky is cautioning everyone
in Crockett and Louvin Counties...
as significant sludge runoff
made its way into the Black River...
which supplies most all
of the area's drinking water.
- Environmental groups...
- Polly.
Have been warning that the
man-made slurry pond was unsafe.
And now this, from a former big-coal
employee turned whistleblower.
For many years, One Planet Resources
has illegally covered up dozens...
of safety violations
at Greenpoint Mines.
There are unconfirmed
reports from nearby residents...
that gunfire was
exchanged last night...
between the private security firm hired
to guard the company's warehouse...
and an unknown group, but
apparently any evidence of this...
would be washed away in the
flood, authorities are telling us.
There are also
reports on Twitter...
that this may have been the work
of an eco-terrorist organization...
intent on stopping
mountaintop removal projects...
in Eastern Kentucky
and West Virginia.
So far, only one death
has been reported...
the body of a boy discovered
earlier this morning...
but his identity has
yet to be determined.
Again, we're reporting that
local and federal health officials...
- Sheriff? Can I have a word?
- Yeah.
Have warned residents
not to drink their tap water...
until further notice,
and FEMA crews...
have begun dispensing potable
water in downtown Blackburg.
You know what this is?
- No.
- It was at a crime scene on Route 99...
where Farrells attacked that prison bus.
I'm told it has your fingerprints on it.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Wade Houghton, you
are officially suspended...
as sheriff of Crockett County
in the state of Kentucky.
I'm taking it to the state's attorney.
They'll start an investigation.
So you might
wanna call a lawyer.
Any questions?
You're done, Wade.
Nice knowing you.
Ledda?
Yeah.
We gotta get him
to the hospital.
Wade said that we
can't. He'll go to jail.
If we don't, he's gonna die.
Okay.
Yeah, I need an
ambulance right away.
And as I so warned...
three of us have perished.
Four.
Trevor Shay...
Barnabis McGintuk...
Levon Farrell and Hasil Farrell.
Their bodies will never
be buried on this mountain.
And so I call again for this
man's immediate banishment!
Yeah!
- Yes.
- Yes.
- Yes.
- No. No.
It's true.
I failed to bring all
those boys home.
I made a promise
to this family...
that if I did not destroy
their war machines...
then I would never return.
And when our boys, they lay
there, all bloody and dead...
I believed that I would
never see this place again.
But then...
in our most dire hour...
I saw him.
Standing there, above us.
My boy.
My beloved Elon.
He came to save us...
and I knew right then, that
the old fathers' prophecy...
it was true all along.
That our Elon...
he is and he was the
Returned come to save us...
and save us he did.
I saw him too.
I saw Elon with my own eyes.
So did Lil' Foster.
- I - made another promise:
That if we were to succeed...
then there would
be changes made.
That Oak was passed
to my former wife...
- because of my supposed death.
- Enough.
- I said, banish this man!
- Oh, no.
When I saw Elon there,
in that hell of coal...
I knew...
that that Oak...
is rightfully mine.
That's right. MAN: No.
That's right. That's right.
- I am still the Bren'in of this clan, Foster.
- You ain't the Bren'in no more.
- I decide who to pass this Oak to...
- I am the rightful Bren'in...
- and that is my Oak. That is my Oak.
- Whatever time I choose.
- I've decided... Listen to me!
- That Oak is mine!
You listen to me!
I hereby pass this staff to
the one most fitting to lead us.
You can't do that.
The father of my child.
Can't do that.
Foster Farrell VIII.
You can't do that!
You can't do that! That's mine!
Stop!
No, stop!
Stop!
This Oak has been our ruin!

Cause of death is asphyxiation by
strangulation, manner of death, suicide.
- What's this up here?
- A bump on the back of the head.
I need to ask you about
those jars that she had.
- Jars? LAB TECH:
An enhanced version...
of Agent Orange.
Like in Vietnam?
This stuff's been modified to
absorb through the root system...
- in addition to its defoliant properties.
- Dynamite arrived yesterday.
They're keeping it stored at a
construction site outside of town.
They'll carve a path for their troops,
their machines, whatever they want.
What the hell?
In the cage, that's when I saw
my kin. They were all looking at me.
- I don't know what's going on up there.
- Go to them.
Be right here waiting for
you when you get back.
Let's not just steal
dynamite, let's use it on that.
- You helped them steal it.
- I did what I had to do.
- I gained their trust.
- You were supposed to bring us info.
Catching the Farrells stealing
dynamite, that's gonna get you nowhere.
Catching them in a terrorist
act, now, that's a guarantee.
You are no Bren'in to me.
You'll be the death of this
ancient clan, Foster Farrell VI.
We are at war.
And it is a war
that I intend to win.
A right change is on us.
- Can you feel that?
- Well, I can feel this 'shine...
swirling around my insides is
what I can feel right now. Ha-ha-ha.
There's a reckoning coming.
And I can't have no more
children around. Got it?
I need men now.
- We're with you, Foster.
- Oh, is that right?
- How far are you willing to go?
- As far as you need us to.
There's a warehouse
full of their war machines.
Set to come up here
and blow us all to hell.
It's around the other side of
Mount Vernon at the old mine.
We're taking that dyno...
and we are blowing it all up.
We're gonna end
this once and for all.
Does Bren'in know?
Let me tell you
something, cousin.
Our Bren'in...
she is the most goodhearted
woman ever to grace this hill.
But a good heart, in a time
of war, can only lead to ruin.
Now, from here on...
I decide how we fight...
and how we win this war.
So I'm gonna ask you again.
Are you with me, or
I gotta do this alone?

You're saying Myers
had her killed because...
She found out they were
poisoning Shay Mountain?
I'm saying I don't know.
Maybe it was a mistake.
Maybe...
Maybe they come in, right?
They come in to take the jars.
Things went bad, there's
a struggle, and she fell.
She hit her head on the table...
- Wade, hold it.
- The ME confirmed it's her hair.
It's her blood on it.
They take her to the bathroom,
string her up, make it look like suicide.
All's I know, I got to go
state's attorney on this.
Can you prove the chemicals in those
samples came from Shay Mountain?
No? Can you prove that
One Planet purchased them?
- Or that they came from the state?
- No, no, but...
But we have the photographs.
- On her phone?
- The photographs on her phone show...
All those show is that
she took a hike, Wade.
Now, look, I agree
with you. I agree.
These people are
capable of killing her.
And they are
poisoning this town.
But if you want to go after them, really
take them down, you gotta get it all.
E-mails, phone records, purchase
orders, invoices, everything.
And until that time, Wade, listen
to me here, you gotta be careful.
All right? You got a
family to look out for.
We just know that he was
the last person to see her.
You think that Gordon had
something to do with Haylie?
- No, look, look...
- And you think that she was murdered?
We don't know. I need to know
everything you know about him.
You said he lived all
over the place, right?
Yeah, protesting. WADE:
Okay, he tell you where exactly?
Um, uh, there was that
Creek River dam in Oregon.
Okay. LEDDA: A
fracking thing in Montana.
Okay.
A pipeline in East Texas
that he talked about.
I'm sorry it's late, but I
got things to say to you.
Speak.
You know what my fa is doing.
That he's got his believers.
Those numbers are growing. I'm
afraid they're fixing to turn on you.
Foster, I can't and I
won't be the Bren'in of war.
- I know you can't.
- So, what do you want me to do?
I loathed you.
I've adored you.
I've forgotten about you.
But still, I love you.
I don't know.
I don't know, G'Win.
Come away with me.
We'll find some other mountain,
raise our baby in peace.
Everything's different. I can't
feel nothing but care for you now.
For you, and him or her.
It's a her.
You know we
can't leave this hill.
Then I'm begging you.
Give it up.
What?
That Oak.
It ain't caused nothing but pain
and death to anybody who's carried it.
Give it up, G'Win.
I can't do that either.
- Hey, Matt.
- Hey.
Got a minute? I got your e-mail.
- This a good time? I could come back.
- No, Wade, come in.
Pretty much got everything tied up on
the whole Haylie Grimes thing, you know.
A few loose ends,
but I think I'm gonna...
you know, have all the paperwork
in before the end of the day.
- Just thought I'd let you know.
- That's great news, Wade.
- Glad those issues got cleared up.
- She did have a few enemies, you know.
There was that hippie
guy, the eco guy.
Threw the coal dust
on her at that parade.
- Gordon Jerrod.
- I don't know him.
If you don't know him, then how
come I saw you with him last night?
- You following me, Wade?
- Yeah.
- Seems like I got good reason to.
- I wanted to loop you in.
- You wanted to loop me in?
- Yes, but I couldn't.
State's orders.
This has got something to do
with the fact he's wanted by the FBI?
He's a domestic terrorist? You
think I wouldn't figure that out?
He's just a kid who got
in with the wrong crowd.
And so we're using
that to our advantage.
What the hell's that
supposed to mean?
We believe the Farrells may have
stolen dynamite from a construction site.
He's been heading up the
mountain, infiltrating them...
When the hell was I
gonna hear about it?
- Easy. The ATF is on it, okay?
- When were you gonna tell me?
There's nothing I could
do. It's federal jurisdiction.
My job is protecting this town.
If there's any threat, I'm the
first who's supposed to know.
And now you do.
Bren'in?
Hasil.
You're back?
- I know I've been gone for a while, but...
- What happened to you?
Well, I had a premonition.
A feeling that something was going on
up here and that maybe y'all need me.
You plan on being
back here for good?
No, I mean, me and Sally-Ann,
we're gonna, um, have the baby.
So I gotta go back down.
As you should.
- Right.
- Hasil?
Big Foster and his
boys stole dynamite.
What you mean, dynamite?
What they gonna do with that?
I don't know. If we let
them go off on some plan...
this mountain won't be
home to nobody no more.
You owe it to me and your family
to find out where they're hiding it.
Can you do that for me?
- Yes, ma'am.
- I can trust you, right?
Of course you can, for certain.
We ain't got much time. Someone's
gotta do it. It's gonna be me.
Them roads ain't safe. You're
looking at 20 miles through the trees.
By foot, that's a day.
Probably two for you, old man.
We gotta go to that mine
to verify them photos...
that kid showed us.
Well, that's some...
- Lookie here.
- Huh. Look who's back.
Mind if I join you?
Been a while since I
took y'all at black and red.
Don't usually
let townies sit in.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
That was me that saved your
ass the other night in that store...
when the soldier boy
was shooting at you.
Thank you, cousin.
You did that? You?
I did do that.
What the hell happened to you?
Doesn't matter.
Heard I missed
some fine cavortings.
- Queen. Okay.
- The ten.
Heard y'all went on a night run.
Stole some dyno from a
construction site. That true?
- Jack.
- It's true, we did. And who told you?
Eh...
Word gets around.
You know. Ahem.
Cousin.
You're hurt pretty good.
You up to earning your
graces back with us?
- You know I am.
- You bring them lostie clothes back?
I don't wear nothing
like that up here.
He ain't talking about
wearing them up here, cousin.
Look, the whole thing's simple.
You just stick that right there, okay?
And this here.
That's what blows it. Okay?
Stick it in, hook them
up, you got your fireworks.
He's right.
Big building looks empty,
but it's full of machines.
- Military equipment. Helicopters.
- Like them photos.
- Guards?
- I saw two guys. Didn't see no guards.
One thing's for sure though,
something's going on down there.
- It don't feel right.
- Uh-huh.
Don't feel right at all.
- Jesus Christ.
- Hey, sheriff. Looking for me?
Yeah. We need to talk, Gordon.
Or Tim. Whatever your name is.
I figured you'd be in
uniform, ready to arrest me...
- but you aren't, are you?
- Why do you think that is?
- Because of Haylie Grimes.
- What about her?
- You think I killed her.
- You are wanted for murder.
I had nothing to do with that.
I know you know that, or else you'd
be pointing a gun at me right now.
You know who killed her?
That what you're saying?
We both do. We're dealing with
some really bad people here, sheriff.
I know. So why were you
talking to them last night?
Who? Matt Myers?
He found out about
my aliases, my warrant...
- and he's threatening to blackmail me.
- What for?
To get intel on the Farrells.
What about?
They stole a bunch of
dynamite from a construction site.
But he told you
about that, right?
Just know Matt Myers and his friends
don't know what they think they know.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- It means that...
I still have to play ball, or
else they're gonna turn me in.
But don't worry.
- We're still gonna get what we want.
- What's that exactly?
Want proof they had something
to do with Haylie? I have it.
I malwared their computers
about a week ago.
The state, One Planet,
they contracted them...
to go poison their
water and their soil.
Haylie Grimes found out, threatened
to go public, call the state's attorney.
Well, why don't you
just release it, then?
Hell, if I did that,
they'd kill me too.
What do I get
out of this exactly?
You get all the e-mails and documents it
takes to save this town, that mountain...
and make it a peaceful,
decent place to live.
Same way it was when
you were a little boy.
- Aren't you gonna take your camper?
- Oh, that's not my camper, sheriff.
It's Gordon's.
You are starting to sound
a lot like your cousins, Hasil.
Scared of something you
don't even know is real.
I've seen those machines
with my own eyes.
They're real, and we have to do
something before they turn them on us.
I see it.
You're siding with Big
Foster and his boys.
I respect your wishes as
Bren'in without question...
but I ask your
ladyship to consider...
- Hasil, I needed to trust you.
- Bren'in, all that I'm saying is that...
Just go. Just get out.
Now.
I still don't understand why
you didn't talk to me about this.
Actually, that was my call.
And I apologize for not bringing you
into the loop earlier on this, sheriff...
but we had some
SOP's we had to follow.
I don't understand how keeping
my department in the dark...
makes the people of this town
safe. You think we're idiots?
We're gonna go put
this up on Instabook?
- We gotta try to work together on this.
- Absolutely.
Which is why I am officially
informing you and the entire county...
that at this time we have
credible, actionable intelligence...
that domestic terrorism is
being perpetrated in this area.
And that the target is
the One Planet office.
- Who's gonna do that?
- A radicalized group.
A radicalized group? The Farrells
with the dynamite they stole?
- Did you hear this from Gordon Jerrod?
- Yeah.
They're planning on blowing
up the One Planet offices.
He sent us a conversation
recorded on his phone.
It just doesn't seem like their
MO. That'd be game over for them.
They did just shoot an
off-duty cop a few days ago.
No, they did not. The ballistics
have not come back on that.
That's not conclusive. It may
well have been our vigilante.
So when's this credible, actionable
evidence tell you this is gonna happen?
We don't know that. We're
waiting to hear from our source.
Okay, well, thanks for the
talk. And keep me in the loop.
Nice to meet you.
Hey, Ledda?
Five-four-one...
One-two-eight-three-three-seven-five.
I learned about this site
from a Ukrainian 13-year-old.
- Oh, really?
- Technically...
not legal without the
owner's "permish"...
but this is the dark
web, my friend.
- You cool?
- Yeah.
What's this?
Looks like he went up Shay
Mountain a couple times.
- What's this here?
- Mmm...
Somewheres up near Route
53, far side of Vernon Mountain.
It looks like he made three
trips up there in the last four days.
Let the Circle begin.
Our former Bren'in, Lady Ray...
her spirit is among us.
Her message was
and always will be:
"We must not become
the evil we deplore.
We must continue to
live as we always have...
as warriors of peace...
not initiators of
violence and hatred."
There's one among
us who does not agree.
The one who killed
our Lady Ray...
and who still tries with all
his might to crush her spirit.
Now, against my wishes,
Big Foster has stolen fire.
And not just guns
this time but dynamite.
And he plans to use those bombs against
the coal powers to destroy their property.
But remember, every time he
has acted from bluster and conceit...
he has failed, and
lives have been lost.
His own son, Elon.
Shurn's boy, Tice.
Enoch.
An unbroken chain of misery.
And I cannot allow
any more of us to die.
And so I call for the immediate
banishment of Foster Farrell VI.
Better late than never.
I hate to have to remind...
our Bren'in that too many
of our precious family...
have been murdered
under her care.
We lived on this mountain
over two centuries.
And, no, not always in peace.
We paid in blood, dearly,
as the Bren'in well knows.
Now, we have seen photographs,
and Hasil, he's seen with his own eyes...
the terrible machines
of war and destruction...
they've gathered to fight us.
And we've heard that
their attack is coming soon.
Maybe in days. Now, they were
gonna explode our south ridge...
with our dynamite that we stole.
And bring those machines, drive
them right here to this very spot.
Now, our greatest
weapon is surprise.
That's right.
- That's right.
- So if we gonna live...
beyond this winter and our
kin yet born are to follow us...
then we have no
choice but to hit first...
and hard...
and with haste.
I'm afraid he's
right, we got to.
Now, wars are
won, wars are lost...
but in the end, the stories are told by
those who had the courage to fight...
and not wait for doom.
Yeah!
I'm in agreement
with our Bren'in.
This man's actions will only
continue to exacerbate our troubles.
Bren'in, I am and always
have been a loyal supporter.
But if half of what Big Foster says is true,
I can see we have no choice but to fight...
and fight with
everything we got.
When my boy Tice died
because of his darkness...
I hated him with all my being.
But when you
failed to banish him...
I felt it was the most fatal of
mistakes a Bren'in could make.
He is a devil inside.
I know that, but these times...
might be the ones where a
devil is what we need the most.
Yeah!
Elders, what say you?
The sentiments of this clan...
and of we the Elders...
are in agreement.
Bren'in, respectfully, we
believe there is little choice...
but to allow desperate measures
to be taken by these men.
But on one condition.
If you should fail in this...
or if any more of your boys get
killed or hurt in this raid of yours...
you will agree to banishment
without a Circle called.
We will risk all
to save this clan...
but I cannot make a promise to you
or to any of us that life will not be lost.
But if I fail in destroying
them war machines...
then yes.
Yes, I will not dare even
set foot on this hill again.
I will banish myself
from this mountain...
and from this clan...
from that day forevermore.
However, if we succeed...
if I am able to make my
way back to this paradise...
and to all my beautiful kin...
then things will
change among us.
They will change.
That's right. - Yeah!
Look at this.
This is the old Greenpoint Mine.
Dad used to work here, remember?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, we tried to get them
to clean up that sludge pond.
Well, Gordon's been out there
three times the past few days.
Got any idea why he'd do that?
No.
Yeah, okay.
Listen, what I'm about to tell
you, I never told you. Okay?
Gordon called the staties,
told them Farrells will attack...
One Planet tonight.
But I...
But I think it's something
to do with this mine.
Well, like what?
Listen, I don't
know, but just...
I want you and the
kids to stay here.
In the house, until I get back. I
mean that. You don't go anywhere.
Hey, Wade.
Yeah?
That's it down there.
Where those trucks all were.
You were right. I
don't see any guards.
All right, that
digger right there.
We're gonna go from there.
Phil'up, you're covering us.
- Yeah? Good.
- Mm.
Well, come on, come
on, come on. Get going.
- Something's going on inside.
- We're moving in.
Intruders, seven males,
about 60 yards out.
Repeat, 6-0 from base. Copy.
Let's go. MAN 2: Take
your team to alpha.
- Let's go, boys.
- Let's go. Go.
Go, go, go.
Go, go, go.
Go, go, go.
Shit.
All right, everybody
down! Get down!
Everybody down!
Get out of there!
Trevor! Trevor!
Levon!
Get out of there!
Don't shoot!
Please! Don't shoot!
- I give up! BIG
FOSTER: Oh, come on.
I give up! Don't shoot me! Don't shoot!
- Barnabis.
Barnabis...
Oh, shit! Goddamn it.
Hasil, come on, boy. Come on.
Come on, boy. I got you.
Come on. Get up.
Come on, get them lights.
Come on. Let's go.
Wait! Stop.
Don't shoot.
Don't shoot.
- I'm not here to arrest you.
- What are you doing?
- Here to help...
- You ain't helping. Get in your car.
- Don't you touch that.
- Wait, wait, Fa, stop!
- No, Fa! Fa, wait! BIG
FOSTER: Get out of here!
- Want to die? Want to die?
- I trust him!
He's dying! He's
dying. I trust him.
I trust him! Come on.
- Look. Look.
- Come on.
Okay?
- Where'd he get him?
- He's gut shot.
Okay, we can stem the bleeding,
but we gotta get him to a doctor.
- No hospitals.
- No, no, no.
I'll get him to someone who
can help. If we leave him, he'll die.
Can y'all carry him? Carry him to my car.
- Come on, then.
Come on, come on, come on.
Here.
You need to put
pressure here, okay?
Here, get your hands
on there. Keep pressure.
There's only one way you're
gonna get out of here alive.
Leave your bikes.
Stay off the roads.
You need to go around
the sluice into that valley.
You'll get to Shay Mountain.
Sheriff.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Let's move.
Ledda, Ledda. It's Wade here,
okay? Listen to me. I need you...
to call your friend Polly,
okay? The nurse. Just call her.
Wake her up. Get her to our house.
I got a kid dying on me here, okay?
Call her. Get her
over there now.
It's this road here.
What was that?
I've seen this before.
I've been here.
I dream of this place
every damn night.
I dreamt of that.
I dreamt of that busting
up, busting apart.
And all them waters
drowning everything.
How many sticks
we got left? Huh?
- I got this.
- All right. You?
Yeah, I got a couple.
Okay. Follow me.
I got no idea how
long this will burn.
But you guys, you're going back.
I'm gonna light it. I'm
gonna meet you there.
Foster, why don't
you let me do this?
I'm quicker than you, old man.
- No, no.
I got too much blood
on my hands as it is.
If anybody else ain't gonna make it
back it's gonna be me, not you two boys.
- Fa!
- Foster.
Fa!
- Foster.
- Fa?
Fa!
All right.
- You all right?
- I'm all right.
It weren't enough
to bust the dam.
- All right, come on.
- No, no, no.
Go on, go on, go on.
Get up in them woods, all right?
Spend the night. Walk from there.
- What? Let's go.
- What about you?
- No. I cannot go.
- Can't leave you here.
- I cannot go. You know that.
All right? Get going.
Go on.
Look.
Look.
That's Elon.
That's Elon.
Elon?
Hey! Elon!
Hi, boy! Hello!
Hey, hey! It's me!
You gotta get off there, okay?
- You gotta get away from there!
- Wait, wait. Fa, it's okay.
It's okay. He was there.
He was in my dream too.
We gotta go.
- We gotta go now.
- We gotta go.
- No, now! Come on! Fa!
- We gotta go.
- Let's go!
- We gotta go, come on.
That's Elon.
We need to go.
Now. MAN 2: Cut it.
Let's go. Let's
go, go, go! Move!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Elon.
Elon, thank you.
Thank you, Elon.
Sheriff, what are you
gonna do about it?
FEMA is calling the
worst coal slurry disaster...
in three decades, spilling,
literally, billions of gallons...
of black waste water across 53
and into the Greenpoint Creek.
The cause of the
impoundment dam break...
has not been
verified at this time...
but Kentucky is cautioning everyone
in Crockett and Louvin Counties...
as significant sludge runoff
made its way into the Black River...
which supplies most all
of the area's drinking water.
- Environmental groups...
- Polly.
Have been warning that the
man-made slurry pond was unsafe.
And now this, from a former big-coal
employee turned whistleblower.
For many years, One Planet Resources
has illegally covered up dozens...
of safety violations
at Greenpoint Mines.
There are unconfirmed
reports from nearby residents...
that gunfire was
exchanged last night...
between the private security firm hired
to guard the company's warehouse...
and an unknown group, but
apparently any evidence of this...
would be washed away in the
flood, authorities are telling us.
There are also
reports on Twitter...
that this may have been the work
of an eco-terrorist organization...
intent on stopping
mountaintop removal projects...
in Eastern Kentucky
and West Virginia.
So far, only one death
has been reported...
the body of a boy discovered
earlier this morning...
but his identity has
yet to be determined.
Again, we're reporting that
local and federal health officials...
- Sheriff? Can I have a word?
- Yeah.
Have warned residents
not to drink their tap water...
until further notice,
and FEMA crews...
have begun dispensing potable
water in downtown Blackburg.
You know what this is?
- No.
- It was at a crime scene on Route 99...
where Farrells attacked that prison bus.
I'm told it has your fingerprints on it.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Wade Houghton, you
are officially suspended...
as sheriff of Crockett County
in the state of Kentucky.
I'm taking it to the state's attorney.
They'll start an investigation.
So you might
wanna call a lawyer.
Any questions?
You're done, Wade.
Nice knowing you.
Ledda?
Yeah.
We gotta get him
to the hospital.
Wade said that we
can't. He'll go to jail.
If we don't, he's gonna die.
Okay.
Yeah, I need an
ambulance right away.
And as I so warned...
three of us have perished.
Four.
Trevor Shay...
Barnabis McGintuk...
Levon Farrell and Hasil Farrell.
Their bodies will never
be buried on this mountain.
And so I call again for this
man's immediate banishment!
Yeah!
- Yes.
- Yes.
- Yes.
- No. No.
It's true.
I failed to bring all
those boys home.
I made a promise
to this family...
that if I did not destroy
their war machines...
then I would never return.
And when our boys, they lay
there, all bloody and dead...
I believed that I would
never see this place again.
But then...
in our most dire hour...
I saw him.
Standing there, above us.
My boy.
My beloved Elon.
He came to save us...
and I knew right then, that
the old fathers' prophecy...
it was true all along.
That our Elon...
he is and he was the
Returned come to save us...
and save us he did.
I saw him too.
I saw Elon with my own eyes.
So did Lil' Foster.
- I - made another promise:
That if we were to succeed...
then there would
be changes made.
That Oak was passed
to my former wife...
- because of my supposed death.
- Enough.
- I said, banish this man!
- Oh, no.
When I saw Elon there,
in that hell of coal...
I knew...
that that Oak...
is rightfully mine.
That's right. MAN: No.
That's right. That's right.
- I am still the Bren'in of this clan, Foster.
- You ain't the Bren'in no more.
- I decide who to pass this Oak to...
- I am the rightful Bren'in...
- and that is my Oak. That is my Oak.
- Whatever time I choose.
- I've decided... Listen to me!
- That Oak is mine!
You listen to me!
I hereby pass this staff to
the one most fitting to lead us.
You can't do that.
The father of my child.
Can't do that.
Foster Farrell VIII.
You can't do that!
You can't do that! That's mine!
Stop!
No, stop!
Stop!
This Oak has been our ruin!
