NARRATOR:
Previously on Outsiders:

FULTS: He's awake!
- I ran?

- Like a bat out of hell, Wade.
- Wade Houghton, meet Matt Myers.

Matt's our new
emergency manager, Wade.

I can't take the Oak now.
After what I done to your Fa...

you need to find his corpse.

Krake, I need the
key to the prison box.

It's gone. The key.

KRAKE: Are you forgiving him?

Or are you thinking something
more dire will be his fate?

[BARKING AND GROWLING]



[TRAIN HORN BLOWING]

I'm ready now to take the Oak.

I'm looking for my Fa.

JED: If he's alive,
he'd be at the hospital.

- I'm headed that way if you want a ride.
- You got a wild animal in your truck.

Get down. Get down.
Hands behind your head.

WADE: You know who this is?
- Shot by Foster Farrell the 6th.

- Tell me the truth.
- I've never told a lie.

FULTS: So we should
release him, then?

Guys are waiting to kick
his ass if we let him go.

We're keeping him here.

WOMAN: Hey there,
you. You hungry?

MATT: In a nutshell, we want
to let this situation cool down.

We want the law-abiding
people of Blackburg...

to feel safe in
their beds at night.

So no more Farrells coming
down here, disturbing the peace...

causing trouble, period. Right?

Yeah? First off, we
block access to the town.

I propose we close the
logging roads here and here.

Roads we can't
close, we post guards.

Posts will be here,
here and here.

And we'll also fence off
mountain trails the Farrells use.

- Block off the mountain?
- If we can, yes.

WADE: I'm... I'm... I'm
sorry, I have a question.

We have no money for a
medical clinic, but you got like...

a jillion dollars to spend on a
20-mile fence around Shay Mountain?

Why don't we
sidebar that, sheriff?

We'll also add extra
protection in town.

Post armed guards at
places the Farrells raided.

This has gotta be the dumbest
idea I've ever heard in my entire life.

You're talking about armed
guards standing around Blackburg.

- Gonna make people pretty nervous.
- I don't think they'll feel that way at all.

They'll be tickled pink
we're making them safe.

Well put, Miss Grimes.

I don't know who
invited you here, anyway.

MATT: I've requisitioned
some K-rails.

We should have crews
ready to go as early as EOW.

I tell you, I am very happy...

to have an emergency
manager here in Blackburg.

It's the best thing
that could happen.

What do you have to say
about the Farrell in custody...

as a suspect in Breece
Dobbs' shooting?

He was a One Planet
employee, correct?

That's great news for
the One Planet family.

Now we're all hoping
to see justice get done.

[CHATTERING]

[♪♪♪]

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me.

I'm G'Winveer, the Bren'in.

Who speaks for you?

I do.

I am Moregon...

and we are the Kinnah.

We come from the shadow
side of this mountain.

The water has gone dark...

tainted by the
lowlanders' road building.

We've been
searching for shelter.

We beseech you...

grant us the welcome guaranteed
by the old law of Brehon...

to rest...

and regain our strength.

Our lives are in your hands.

[SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

We will follow
your customs, yes.

Fetch water for our guests.

Let's let them be. Go on now.

Go on.

[♪♪♪]

WILLEM: There's no time for strangers.
- They're not strangers.

- Huh?
- They're the Kinnah.

- Kinnah? EMELYE: Aye.

They were McGintuks
once, but they departed...

- and formed their own clan.
- They left? How long ago?

No one knows. A hundred
years, maybe more.

- They don't belong here.
- Where's their men?

- That's a good question.
- This is no time for interlopers.

Do you all have no compassion?

Are we no better than
them down below?

We live by letting live.

[♪♪♪]

Oh! You're awake.

- Where am I?
- You're in my house, darling.

Found you in the
middle of the road.

Looked like you was
a pile of old coonskins.

I couldn't leave you there.
Wouldn't be Christian.

Oh! Eh...

I ain't introduced myself.

Name's Corinne.

What's yourn?

How long I been here?

A day, two, maybe three.

Oh, no. Best we
take a look at you.

Marlon, he's my eldest,
he tends the hogs...

so he did a real good job...

getting that lead out you.

He's a good boy...

not like this one here.

No! That's not for you.
That's for our guest.

Now get!

Heh. Here now, you need
to get your strength up.

"Boomer stew," we call it.

- It's real good.
- Oh.

- Ah...
- No. I need to...

I need to get to my home.

- No.
- Oh!

- Oh...
- You don't have your strength up yet.

I'll come back, see when youse
ready to put something in your stomach.

Oh, no, wait, wait. Hey.

No.

- Hey. No.
- No, no, now don't rile yourself.

There's no place for you to go.

Nothing for you to do but rest.

- No, but hey...
- We'll talk soon.

No, hey, hey. Hey!

[♪♪♪]

[BIG FOSTER PANTING]

Oh, hell.

WOMAN [OVER
MONITOR]: So you shot him.

How many times was it?

Why aren't you listening to me?
I told you I didn't shoot this man.

WOMAN: Come on, Mr. Farrell.

You know you did,
and we know you did...

so just tell us
how it went down.

- I didn't shoot nobody.
- We already know what happened.

- You help yourself if you talk.
- Tell us what you did with the gun.

- What gun?
- The one you used to kill Breece Dobbs.

I didn't have no gun. I didn't
shoot him. I told you who did.

You got scared, so you shot him.

- I get that. I might've done the same thing.
- Well, good for you.

I didn't shoot nobody.

- Where's Wade Houghton?
WOMAN: He's not here right now.

You're not helping
us to help you here.

I know the judge, and
he'll go easy on you...

get you out of here,
but only if you help us.

Is this what y'all
do all the time...

just lock somebody in a room and
don't listen to a damn thing they say?

Is that what happens down here?

Take us through it again.

MAN: All right.
That's not a bad idea.

- We're getting there.
WADE: Well, yeah.

I didn't hear anything to support
the idea he killed a person.

It's a process.
Takes time, sheriff.

- We got enough to charge him.
- Sorry. He's sitting there...

saying he didn't kill nobody.
He ain't got a weapon.

Thank y'all very
much for coming down.

My men and I will
take it from here.

State police have
authority on this, Wade.

Excuse me?

The state's attorney
brought them in.

- Thank you so much.
WOMAN: You bet.

MATT: This goes a long
way to quelling people's fears.

We'll see about getting that
on the docket for arraignment.

MATT: Great. Nice
work. Thank you.

And thank you, Wade. Thank
you for getting on board with this.

I was worried about this Dobbs thing, but
this will be good for us... And for you.

Your image, you know?

Restore confidence.

Know what I mean?

[♪♪♪]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

G'WIN: Come.

You call for me, Bren'in?

Hasil, yes.

When them policemen came,
they took our peace of mind...

because we were unawares.

That can't happen again.

- I agree.
- Good.

I've decided that
we need a patrol.

We need eyes
all over this hill...

and I think you're the
man to be set to that task.

Well, you know the ways
between our world and theirs...

and you're strong and
you're loyal, aren't you?

Like I said, you ain't got
nothing to worry about.

I'm here now.

You... You seen Lil' Foster
on your travels by chance?

I have not.

- Well, you do, you tell him come see me.
- Yes, ma'am.

Bren'in?

G'WIN: Yes?

You trust them?

Those Kinnah ladies?

I mean, they say they
starving and weak, but...

they don't seem that way.

They seem like they dressed
up, playing some kind of game.

Mm.

They do have some strange
ways about them, it's true.

No, I think they're
fleecers, flimflammers.

- I think they're bilking us.
- Hasil, this is our way.

We give freely, and we
can't afford more enemies.

You spent too much
time down there.

All I'm saying is, what if
they're up to something else?

I hear you, but they
speak our language.

They're family.

[♪♪♪]

[HASIL SIGHS]

MOREGON: Good
day to you, Bren'in.

How are the Kinnah settling in?

Well. We are grateful.

We hope we won't be
a bother much longer.

Oh, not a bother. You need any
help to situate yourself, you just ask.

You're generous and kind.

A true leader.

I admit when we arrived, I was
taken by how young thou were.

Such a cub to be
burdened with this task.

I hadn't thought of myself
as a cub in a long while, but...

it's true. The Oak only
passed to me recently.

All the more impressive that it
be so, and yet, you are so able.

I saw you stand
to your dissenters.

But you be fair and
you gave them an ear.

It's no small task to hold thy
ground and not appear rigid.

Questions only breed
more questions...

like weeds.

They can choke
the path you walk.

Your people were
wise to choose thee.

Once, all the heads of the
mountain clans were women.

The Bren'in handed from mother
to daughter in an unbroken line.

We moved to the far
side of Shay Mountain...

where we could
practice our way in peace.

Not much can grow there, I've
heard. It's a harsh way to live.

It's also the right way.

And as you see, we endured.

So you have no men among you?

Men only cause pain...

but I don't need
to tell thee that.

Pardon?

I can see it.

Plain on thy face.

You know well
the pain men bring.

[♪♪♪]

How do you maintain
your number, then?

When it's time
for such things...

men are easy enough to come by.

[CHUCKLES]

What are you doing
here, dumb-ass?

- You've got chores to do. Get up there.
- Hey.

Leave him be.

How you doing, big fella?

You got your hunger up yet?

Yeah?

You need a little bit more care.

Oh, there.

Yeah.

Isn't that nice?

Mmm...

- That's pretty.
- Why you got me tied?

Oh, you were thrashing
from the fevers...

something fierce.

I was afraid you were gonna...

throw yourself
right out the bed.

Hey, Lord, ain't you pretty?

You're like socks on a rooster.

Well... Well, I ain't
got a fever no more...

so you can loose me now.

Oh, hush...

I know what you need.

What?

Mmm...

Yeah.

You must be hungry for
something more than vittles.

Oh...

What are you...?

- I got what you need.
- No. Hey.

[CORINNE GIGGLES]

BIG FOSTER: Look, uh...

No, hey, hey, hey, no, no, no.
Stop, stop, stop, okay? Okay?

I'm a married man.

Hell, I'm married.

To a monster.

Now, you need some
love and tender care.

- I know I do.
- Mm-mm. No.

Where'd you put the
goddamn remote?

You probably sat on it.

- Did you check up your ass?
- It ain't up my ass, bitch.

Get the hell out of here.

You relax now and
let me take care of you.

[GROANS]

Oh, see?

You ain't even got the
proper strength to be a man.

- No.
- Oh.

Don't fret.

I've got plenty experience
working with a wet noodle.

[CORINNE MOANING]

HASIL: All right, we
are commencing a scout.

Now, we can't get caught
like we was, not ever again.

What I reckon is that
they're already out there...

and they're out there watching.

Each man's gonna
survey a stretch of woods.

We wanna know where they are
without them knowing nothing about us...

so we are gonna go quiet.

We walk, no bikes.

Well, then...

I mean, that's gonna
take all day on foot.

No vehicles. You understand me?

Barnabis, I want you to
take the East Creek Falls.

Enoch, I want you to get
eyes up on Badger Ridge.

What about you?

I'll make sure we're shored
up south down by the Drop.

Y'all finish, you come
back to my place.

- See me, tell me what you seen. All right?
- Got it.

Good.

Let's go.

The Drop, it's the
barest road from here.

Hell, he'll be back before
I've even gone halfway.

- Best get to it then.
- Oh, this is stupid. I mean, he...

He's been down in that town...

sniffing around that girl so
much he don't know what's what.

- What you gonna do?
- Well...

sure as hell ain't gonna walk
all that way. That's all I know.

[DOOR BUZZES]

[♪♪♪]

I'll take you down to the
courthouse. You got a hearing.

- What's this?
- It's all right. They have to do it.

- Calm down, it's all right.
- What?

- It's all right. Come on.
- Get away from me, boy.

Hey, hey, hey. Back
off now! Hey! Back off!

Hey, get back! Put
that away right now.

Hey, calm it down!
Hands off. Calm down.

Stop, listen to me. Look at me
now! Don't worry about him, okay?

Goddamn it, this ain't
about me or you anymore.

This is about the law.

Okay? You can get
violent if you want to...

but if you strike an officer, it'll give
them twice as many reasons to hold you.

You gotta work with me.

Give me your hands.

Okay, you're gonna follow me.

Thank you.

This is the matter of The Commonwealth
of Kentucky v. Foster Farrell the 8th.

Is that correct?

Yes, Your Honor. Jack
Marsil for the commonwealth.

Sophia Bennett for the defense.

And the charges are, "Wanton
endangerment in the first...

assault in the first, conspiracy
to commit murder, murder."

- Is that correct, Mr. Marsil?
JACK: Yes, Your Honor.

How about it, Miss Bennett,
how's your client plead?

Get up.

- You want me to talk now?
JUDGE: Yes, Mr. Farrell, your plea.

Well, like I told this
one, I didn't kill nobody.

- I come down here to find the one who did.
- Mr. Farrell.

- You look like a reputable man.
- Mr. Farrell.

- Hold on. I was told that
I... JUDGE Mr. Farrell, sir!

I'm not sure Miss Bennett
explained to you how all this works.

I'm sorry, Your Honor. I got
this case five minutes ago.

Mr. Farrell...

all I need from you
is for you to tell me...

whether you are guilty of
the crimes mentioned or not.

I didn't kill nobody.

Never.

So that's not guilty, then
that's what I am: not guilty.

Thank you.

So entered.

Now to the matter
of bail, Mr. Marsil.

JACK: The commonwealth requests
that the defendant be held without bail.

This man, he has no
ties to the community.

He doesn't even have a
social-security number.

- I don't have what? JACK:
Now, he is a member...

of the infamous Farrell clan,
with intimate knowledge...

of mountain survival,
frankly, it's a miracle...

- we have him at
all. SOPHIA: Shit.

He is the very definition
of a flight risk, Your Honor.

All that is, strictly
speaking, true, Your Honor...

but Mr. Farrell has no
prior criminal record...

and it does not appear
that the prosecution...

- has given enough evidence to...
- I think I've heard enough.

Bail is denied.

[GAVEL STRIKES]

[♪♪♪]

[DOOR CLOSES]

WADE: Hey, Ledda.

Hey, let's go and
fix some lunch.

I've been at court all morning.
I ain't eaten, I'm starving.

You got court for that
Farrell that you caught?

Where'd you hear that?

I got a call.

They're saying that
he's the one who...

Yeah. Well, don't
get your hopes up.

It ain't as cut and dried
as some folks might like.

- What do you mean?
- I mean, I don't think he killed him.

In fact, I know he didn't.

Yeah, based on what?

- Based on he told me and I believe him.
- Ha!

I do not understand you, Wade.

You are some kind of man.

- Listen, I know you wanna sort this out.
- No, you know jack and shit...

- Hey.
- And that is clear.

I mean, you say that you
want to solve Breece's murder...

- and then it's right here.
- Listen.

Falls right into your
lap, and you say "no"?

You just toss it
out in the garbage?

Hey, what are you talking
about? There's not any evidence.

All we know about
him is he's a Farrell.

- You wanna convict him for that?
- I don't know what to do with you.

I have fought for you for years.

- Wait...
- I have fought, and you know what?

Everyone's right.

- You're scared of them, plain and simple.
- What...?

Wait a minute.
What's this about?

The other day, you said it has
nothing to do with the Farrells.

- You're saying it's all the coal company.
- No. I'm done.

- Flipping and flopping.
- You hear me? I am done defending you.

Just let them
say what they like.

[WADE KICKS WALL THEN
BIG FOSTER GRUNTS]

[MAN AND CORINNE YELLING]

MAN: I need my pipe!

CORINNE: I don't care what
you need. What about what I need?

You never hear me.

Oh, I don't need this.

[MAN AND CORINNE CONTINUE
FIGHTING INDISTINCTLY]

CORINNE: I ain't never touched him.
The two of us never touched nothing.

[GRUNTING]

[FIGHTING CONTINUES]

[GRUNTS]

Hi.

You, uh...

want some of these?

Some of those right there?

Not gonna hurt you.
Come on. Take them.

There you go.

You ain't gonna tell my mama?

No.

I ain't gonna tell
no one. Promise.

Go on.

Now you just go back over
there and stay over there. Okay?

You just keep quiet.

Shh, shh, shh...

[GRUNTS]

[♪♪♪]

[BUMPS DOORWAY]

Hey, you're not supposed to...

Get back here, you!

[PANTING]

[GRUNTS]

I got him good, Pa.

Bren'in, there's a situation
at Big Foster's place.

Hey! What is going on? Stop.

I said, stop.

[SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

Bren'in, what's the matter?

What is going on?
This house belongs to...

To your former husband.

Yes. You've no
right to ransack it.

We were told your man had
passed and no soul dwelled here.

Uh...

No.

The house is empty, yes, but...

Oh.

I see.

You've not finished the
grieving of your terrible loss.

[♪♪♪]

I'm sorry.

We meant no offense by it.
We will find somewhere else.

No.

No, you're right.

Better to make it a
home than let it fall to ruin.

[SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

Shit!

[♪♪♪]

Oh, hell.

WADE: Excuse me.

[WADE CLEARS THROAT]

- Hey, uh, Gardner.
- Hm?

- Oh, hey, Wade.
- You got a moment to talk?

Yeah. Sure. What
can I do you for?

Say, if I see a person...

and they're not getting even
like a half-decent representation...

Is this a friend or relation?

It's a... It's a professional
acquaintance.

Uh-huh.

Criminal case, yeah?

Yeah. A criminal case.
So I see this happening.

I mean, what are...?
What are my options?

Well, did you...? You
talk to this person?

Try to convince him
to hire a better lawyer?

- You want me to keep talking to you?
- Yeah.

Uh... Um...

Like, I mean, they
ain't got no money.

- Oh, a PD?
- Yeah.

Got a public defender, right.

- How's the case against this person?
- It's thin. I mean, it's real thin.

It's pretty much just
guilt by association.

Well, then you just hope it gets tossed
out before trial or dismissed during.

Just let the system
take care of it.

Yeah. Yeah. I
mean, that's the thing.

I mean, I just thought...

I mean, would
you consider, like...

taking on a case
like that? I mean...

just out of a sense
of justice, you know?

You're the best
lawyer around, and...

I've gotta give
you credit, Wade.

You told me you loved me
before you tried to stick it in.

I don't know about that, but...

I mean, I think this man
deserves a proper defense.

I assume we're talking
about that Farrell.

Man, why do you care?

I mean, why do you wanna
get mixed up with all that?

It's the right thing to do.

Yeah, but it's not
the smart thing.

That case, in this town,
that guy's going away.

I've been around long enough to know not to
stand in front of a freight train like that.

And neither should you.

[♪♪♪]

Look what you've
done to yourself.

It's a crying shame.

You're not such a
big man now, are you?

What if I shot you in the
face with your own gun, huh?

- You like that?
- That's mine, boy.

[ALL CLAMORING]

Shut it!

Took you into my home,
bent over backward...

to make you feel
good and look at you.

You ain't even the
least bit thankful...

for how good I've been to you.

This doesn't mean that I'm
gonna give up on you. No, sir.

I've got big plans for you.

I'm gonna teach you graciousness
if it's the last thing I do, I will.

Again.

No.

You're gonna need every inch of the
love and kindness we're gonna give you.

Stitch him up.

[YELLING]

You...

That's it.

Another stitch.

- Bren'in, a moment?
- Of course.

I know it's a ways off, but I'm worried
about the coming winter, Bren'in.

Every prognostication indicates
it'll be a long one and hard.

I'm not sure how precisely...

we'll be able to feed
any extra mouths.

The Kinnah, you mean?

So you're questioning
my decision.

The decision of your
Bren'in to let them stay.

That what you're
wasting all your wind on?

- I just wanted to bring it to your attention.
- Fine, you have.

There are stories about
them passed down.

Some say they're thieves.

You seen what they
done at Big Foster's.

It don't make none of those stories
true. The Kinnah ain't strangers.

They're clan.

You'll see for yourself
at the ceilidh tonight.

A ceilidh?

They ain't got but what they carried
in, so we'll share with them what's ours.

A gifting.

HASIL: You took wheels.

- Goddamn it, I told you.
BARNABIS: I only wanted to go faster.

- Get more done-like.
- Where is it?

It's bad enough you could've been
seen, you might've broken a gear...

- we sorely need.
- Yeah. Well, I said I was sorry.

"Sorry" is not what we
need right now, brother.

We need to protect this family.
It's the only one we've got.

You got me?

[BUZZARDS SQUAWKING]

[FLIES BUZZING]

Damn, man.

[♪♪♪]

Shit.

[DOOR BUZZES]

I'll take you up to County
now while you wait on your trial.

Arms above your head.

What did we look like to you...

when y'all came up our mountain?

We look like animals and
vermin, evil spirits, what?

Tell you the truth...

I don't remember anything.

Hands at your waist.

We could've killed
every single one of y'all...

but we didn't...

because y'all are
kin, like human beings.

We got laws too.

Courts and what...? What do
y'all call them down here, "trials"?

We use them to, not just to put some
problem in a cage, but to heal people.

It's all right. I'm gonna
do everything I can.

Okay?

I promise you that.

I believe you, Wade.

But if you're lying,
like you were before...

you're gonna pay for it.

Okay. Go.

[♪♪♪]

Bren'in, can I talk
to you for a minute?

What is it?

Thought you'd wanna know.

It's, uh, Asa.

Bury it.

Not in our grounds.

Halfway down the mountain.

He never was one
of us. Not really.

But he wasn't one
of them neither.

He belongs in between.

[♪♪♪]

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

[♪♪♪]

[PANTING]

You go outside...

and you run as far as you can...

and don't you never come back.

Okay?

Go.

[GRUNTS]

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Look, if this is about
earlier, can we just...?

No, it's...

I found that in the mail.

Why are they
sending that to you?

Um...

I have cancer.

I had a pain in my side,
and I didn't think much of it...

but I went to get
it checked out.

It was a couple weeks back...

and they took some tests...

and got the results...

and, uh...

and it's cancer.

It's pancreatic cancer. Heh.

Huh.

Oh.

Wow.

[GRUNTS]

Yeah.

Are they...? They...?

- Yeah.
- Sure? Yeah.

As sure as they can be.

Oh.

I'm... I'm sorry, Wade.

I'm sorry.

There just hasn't been
a good time to tell you...

or anyone.

But now... Now I guess you know.

Yeah.

Hey, kids, come downstairs!

Supper's almost ready.

your people for this gifting.

[SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

The moon nears a fullness.

It's so beautiful from up here.

We never saw it, or the stars...

so clear from down in our world.

A sign of great change to come.

Dost thou agree?

How so?

Your people have forgot so many
of the things the mountain knows.

I'm glad to be here...

so in time...

I may remind you.

[MUSIC STOPS AND

Excuse me.
