Walker (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 14 - Mehar's Jacket - full transcript

Where do we start?

One thing at a time.

You know, we're all
adrift right now.

The work around here
gives me purpose.

Maybe it can do
the same for you.

It's not me I'm
worried about, Daddy.

These past couple weeks, what
the kids have been through,

you know, what I
put them through...

I don't know. I just
feel like I gotta

somehow see us to the
other side of this.

You know?



This is William Walker.

A comment?

I will file charges
for harassment...

Okay! Give...

Calling about Clint West?

You don't need to bother
with that, you're resting.

Mama, I can take care of myself.

No, you can't.

None of you boys can.

Hi, Mr. Walker.Geraldine.

I'm sorry about Hoyt.

You brought out the
very best in him.

And, uh...

I'm so damn sorry.



Hey.Hey.

How are the kids?

You know, it's been rough.

Understandably. Um...

And-and for you...
For all of us.

Hoyt's? Yeah.

Didn't leave much,

Rolling stone.

Meant to leave a lot more.

A bar coaster? What is this?

His last will and testament.

Hoyt bought a plot of
land over in Tanglewood

just before he got out of jail.

He and I passed
through that area once.

I mentioned it'd be a
nice place to settle.

I guess he listened.

So Hoyt owns land?

Well, he would have.

The deal fell apart
after he passed.

New owners.

They take possession tomorrow.

I'm sorry, Geri. I mean,
I would have helped.

You still can.

I gotta go there

and gather his
personal belongings.

Okay. Of course. I'm
there. Whatever. Thank you.

Yeah.

What do you think
about the kids coming?

It might be good to give
'em a change of scenery.

I think it'd be a great
change of scenery for them.

Are you sure you don't mind?

I would... I would love it.

We could make a day of it.Yeah.

Picnic. Okay. Great.

I think Hoyt would
have liked that.

Yeah.

I just got one thing
to do before we go.

Okay, just sign right there

and your leave of
absence is official.

Yep.

Okay.

So, uh, so-so that's it?

I'm Joe Citizen now?

Yeah.

It seems, uh, unceremonious.

Oh, didn't want to
make a lot of hoopla.

We're all just trying
to respect your process.

Thank you, Connie.

Yeah.

Is this where I report
a lost hat? Walker.

Hey. Hey. Hey.

Uh, I'm sorry I haven't
called you back.

Uh, i-it's been... you know.

Got the flowers
you and Trey sent.

Thank you. That-that
was very kind.

I'm so sorry about Hoyt.

I didn't know him
long, you know,

but I felt it, his warmth.

He had that effect.

Lunch today. Uh... Yes.

I found a great new taco
truck for us to try.Micki...

I was gonna say I
actually can't make today.

I got Geri and the
kids out in the truck.

And-and Hoyt's passing
left some loose ends

we-we gotta tie up, but,
uh, next week, me and you.

Taco contest. Yeah?

Sure.

Yeah. Of course. Of course.

Great.

Next week.

See you next week.

Stella,
I know you won't pick up,

but I...

If-if we could
just talk, please.

Will you think
about visiting me?

I-I know everything
is so messed up,

but if we could just...

I'm just sorry. I'm
so... I'm so, so sor...

Hey, uh, Uncle Hoyt
never said anything about

a secret hideout, right?

No, I think it was
more about a place,

you know, a dream.Yeah.

Hey, uh, didn't you get
the sleigh around here?

Yeah, it-it was that Christmas

where the reindeer came
and... GERI: Oh, my God.

Pooped everywhere.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I-I do remember that.

Hoyt scooped up shovelfuls of
horse manure from the stables

and scattered it
all over the place.

"Rudolph pooped on
our porch!"

Oh, my God, you two were
so juvenile together.

Oh, come on. It
wasn't just them.

Your mom was way into it.

Oh, and then, on
Christmas morning...

Uncle Hoyt was on the front lawn

in a real sleigh
dressed as Santa.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it, uh,

it took me seven
years to realize that

not all Santas
wear assless chaps.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That was the, uh,

first Santa I remember.

Yeah.

Mmm.

Mmm-mmm-mmm!

Listen, I'm not complaining...
These tacos are bomb...

But, babe, weren't
you supposed to, uh...

Walker had to go take care
of some things for Hoyt.

How they holding up? Okay.

All things considered.

Actually, I...

I don't know. Our exchange
felt really... off.

Is there any chance that

you might have been the
one who made it feel off?

Walker is not the only
one who experienced loss.

You lost your partner,

even if it is just temporary.

You know, your mom
would say that loss...

What, now all of a sudden
you're interested in psychology?

Am I just gonna have two
shrinks in my family now?

Oy vey. "In my family"?

Freudian slip!

I'm gonna burn
those books.

Oh.

Uh, Cap-Captain.

Hey. Uh... Hi.

C-Come in. Sorry,
I didn't mean to

interrupt your
lunch or anything.

I'm actually here to
speak to this guy.

Hey, Trey, how's it going?

It's all right, man. It's
good to see you. You, too.

Just got a quick
question for you.

Do you know a guy
named Louis Kirk?

He goes to the same physical
therapist office as you.

Yeah, yeah, sure.
Lou's a good dude.

Army vet. Same battalion
as Micki and me, actually.

We didn't meet until
physical therapy, though.

Why? What about him?

He's been missing
for three days.

You know how military cases
always make it up the ranks.

Um, this next question's
a little awkward because

he was last seen

in a heated discussion with you.

So, uh

what's that about?

Nice lot of
land. Lots of promise.

Walker: Sure.

Mr. Rawlins had great taste.

That he did.

As far as his, um, belongings...

Neighbors are tending to your
friend's personal effects.

They are probably out grazing.

Grazing?

Hey, Dad,

did you know Uncle Hoyt had
four horses and a llama?

Oh, my God, he is
so cute it hurts.

Please tell me that those belong
to the neighbors, correct?

Mr. Rawlins sweet-talked
the seller into throwing in

that family of outcasts.

The mare, she suckled
that odd-duck stray,

raised it as her own.

Well, sounds like
Hoyt's kind of family.

Well, they're yours now.

But you got to get them off
the property by tonight.

I'm
s... I gotta take this.

And, hey, if you're
looking for a three-bedroom

for yourself and the
kids... Yeah, no, we're not.

Wh-Where...

Uh, where am I gonna board
four horses and a llama?

Uh...

Dad, come on, these are Uncle
Hoyt's... His last dream.

That is what you said.

So... they're a
part of that dream.

Stel...

I mean

maybe we need a distraction.

Like what? You want to... want
to take 'em on a cattle drive

or something? I don't know.

Let's do it.
Let's do it.

Some woman saw Lou

teaching me a judo
throw after PT.

She thought we were fighting,
and she overreacted.

What was he getting PT for?

CTE. Brain injury.

He doesn't want his
daughter to know.

Lou's family is
everything to him.

You probably know more
about him than I can get

from reading his file;
You want to ride along?

Absolutely. I mean,
there's no way

I could just sit
around on my hands.

I'll, uh, I'll grab
my coat. All right.

Hey, Cap, I think

since Walker is taking his...

Ramirez, if you want to
partner up, just ask.

It's nice having
everyone on this ride.

I mean, I know it's not
exactly a picnic, but, uh,

you know, getting out here
with the kids, with you,

it feels... feels good,
feels right. Yeah.

I mean, I think so.

I honestly don't know how I
even functioned this past week.

And then I think about what
you might have witnessed...

I can't even imagine.

What I imagine keeps me up.

Yeah. Me, too.

Especially knowing I brought
all this on. No, don't.

It's not on you.

Is he okay? I mean, he
looks a little sick.

We got a ways to go.

I don't know if
he's gonna make it.

You know what, I'm gonna
hang back, check on Stella.

Okay.

Uh, little lady, I'm gonna
have to issue you a ticket

for texting while riding.

I'm not, I'm just...

I'm looking at Uncle
Hoyt's last text.

It's about my old court
hearing for possession.

"The judge will see
a world of remorse

in a single tear."

If I knew that was
the last time...

Yeah, I... I get it, Stella.

I mean, I've been replaying
those moments myself.

Yeah, but you weren't
responsible for

everything.

Stella... Whoa.

Don't put that on yourself.

Dad, I was the one who
brought Trevor, Clint in.

Trevor's dad was

a deeply troubled man.

He blindsided us.

What happened wasn't
anything to do with you.

Whoa, whoa, oh...

Okay, okay. Whoa, whoa. Easy.

Um, Dad, is he all
right? What's wrong?

He, uh... He's gonna
be fine, buddy.

Um...

You know, uh, I think
he may be better off

if we leave him with someone
who can take better care of him.

Hey, Dad, are you serious?
We can't just leave him here.

I mean, they're-they're family.

Sure, they might not be the
same species or whatever...

Okay. I think you're
overreacting, bud.

Hey, hey, Augie,
it's gonna be okay.

Did you know that, um,

that Hoyt wanted you
to have this jacket?

And it's not just any jacket.

It's a lucky jacket.

Yeah, Hoyt won that, uh,

from a tarot card-reading mystic

named... The Mystifying Mehar.

The Mystifying
Mehar, that's right.

Had a side hustle in
addition to tarot.

Yeah, three-card monte.

Uh, Hoyt beat him
at his own game

and won that jacket from Mehar.

Seriously? Yeah.

Why? Because it's
a lucky jacket.

Mehar was infamous for
getting out of trouble

because of that jacket.

Yeah.

Hey, kiddos, why don't
y'all lead the way?

Go on.

Geri, hey.

Uh, will you keep
up with the kids?

I'm gonna try and find
a place to drop him off.

I'll catch up.

Yeah.

Go on!

Get out of here! All right.

Silly people. My Lord.

What was that about? Aw,
it's just more journalists

wanting to pester Liam.

Well, I came out to te...
Hey!

I came out to tell you
to quit making a racket.

Liam needs rest.

And you probably need the same.

You've been working
all over this ranch,

and you won't lift a
finger to help yourself,

you won't schedule
an appointment.

You know, I didn't
know you could segue

from sawing to cancer.

If you're looking for an apology

for me wanting to help
fix up our home...

I'm worried, Bon.

Hey, Augie, he'll be
better off there, bud.

You know, they're-they're
better suited

for an animal like that,

and there's no way he could
have crossed this ravine.

You didn't even try.Stel...

Do you think it would have hurt

if we just go back and try to...

Augie, Augie, hold on, look.

Sometimes, when a situation
gets too dangerous,

it's best to recognize you gotta
walk away... STELLA: Oh, my God!

Enough with the lectures.

Whoa!

Stella! Stella!

Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hold on, hold on.

Whoa, whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Stay still. Okay? Stay calm.

You're safe, okay?

I'm fine. I'm
fine.Shh. Stay calm.

She just, she just slipped.
She just slipped. I told you

this wouldn't have been safe
for that llama to cross.

Dad, you didn't even know
we'd have to cross this.

I'm saying I told you...
How can you just sit there

and retroactively justify
abandoning the llama?

Okay, we said this was
gonna be a nice escape.

Um, wesaid?

Oh! Oh, right, now I remember.

We said that right
after we decided

to abandon the llama
that Hoyt left us.

Hannah, this is Ranger
Ramirez and Captain James.

Nice to meet you, Mrs. Kirk.

We're gonna do everything we can

to find your husband. All right?

Mm-hmm.

APD mentioned a note?

I, uh, found it at home

the day Lou went missing.

All it said was, um, that he
knew how to fix everything,

and please don't
worry. Love, always.

Fix everything. What?
What does he mean by that?

The bank threatened foreclosure.

If we can't pay,

they seize all our
possessions Monday.

Hannah, I'm-I'm so sorry.

Had you noticed
anything different

with his mood?

Maybe his schedule?

He's been spending a lot
of time in the garage

working on his woodwork.

That's where I
thought I'd find him,

but when I went to go
look, he wasn't there.

Mind if we take a look? Please.

Thanks, Trey. Hey, of course.

Look, they're gonna
find him, okay?

Mm-hmm.

After meeting his family

and hearing what Trey had
to say about him, I just...

I don't peg Lou for the
kind of guy that would run.

Well, hope not. He wouldn't.

Hey, check
out this photo.

No flag on the uniform.

It's a military
contractor stint.

That pays well.

Definitely would
solve money issues,

especially if it's black ops.

Okay. Clandestine
work would also

explain his hasty departure.

Got a gun safe.

Do soldiers have to bring their
own guns for jobs like that?

Yeah. It's mandatory.

Man, a peek in here would
answer some questions.

It's locked. I'm gonna have
Connie call a locksmith.

May not have time for that.

Ha-ha, besides, I
learned a little trick

while on deployment.

Mm-hmm.

Guess old
habits die hard.

Now, let's see what's
behind door number one.

And the guns are gone.

Would he take a black ops
job to pay off his debts?

I think he'd stop at nothing to
protect his wife and daughter.

Shh! You sound like a herd
of buffalo coming in here.

I am here to sub in
and take care of Liam,

so you go, scram, scat.

I got a better bedside manner
than you, anyhow.Uh-huh.

Barbecue for your
political opponent.

How 'bout that?

Liam can't have barbecue.
He's on bed rest.

That's cured four generations
of Walkers. Now, listen...

I was thinking about
mushroom hunting,

what it means to you.

How about we make
some new memories?

Ed, I can't thank you enough
for providing us shelter.

That's, uh... you're
welcome. No problem at all.

Thank you.

This mare's a bit of
a handful, huh? Yeah.

Well, she's probably
scared and wondering

where her boy is, so...

Remember how Hoyt and I used
to babysit you and Augie? Yeah.

Used to stay up past
bedtime building forts.

I'm so sorry. About Uncle Hoyt.

He was the best.

And I know he did some
things that kept you apart,

but you forgave him.

Not always.

Really wish I had.

His heart was so big, Stel.

I know.

The two of you were always
kind of like the dream to me.

Yeah.

It kind of was, right?

Um, Stel, look, I-I know that

I never met your
boyfriend, but I get it.

I really do.

Don't just let that boy

take up all the space
in your head, okay?

Not when other people need you.

Why would anybody need
me when I did this?

Mm-mm. Nope.

You didn't do this. Okay?

You let love in, maybe.

That's your worst crime.

Do you remember my
toast at Cordi and Em's

rehearsal dinner?

There wasn't a dry
eye in the house.

That was the best
toast of the weekend.

I'm not gonna relitigate
this with you,

but my speech at the
wedding was objectively

2.5 times more
emotionally stirring.

I mean, I'm... I'm weeping
just thinking about it.

That's the spicy
barbecue doing that.

Puts hair on your chest.

Not that you need it

after the guts you showed
fighting Clint West.

Austin electorate
won't forget that.

That little stunt
may have just put you

to the front of the race.

You're really making this
about the D.A. race?

Stan, I'm not even
sure I want a career

in public service anymore. Liam!

Come on, now.

You need this challenge, huh?

Look, you're facing a decision

that is gonna
affect you forever.

I been there, and I chose wrong.

And

you don't want to live
with that regret, you know.

DOD confirmed
Sergeant Louis Kirk's last active service

was two years ago.

He reapplied recently
but was rejected

due to a brain injury.

All right. Thanks, Connie.

Well, there goes our
black ops theory.

Guys, I really
hate to say it, but

missing rifles, money
problems... Hey, hey.

Lou would never abandon
his family like that.

Other than money,
he was doing great.

Come to think of it, he was

he was losing weight.

That's a symptom of depression

consistent with CTE.

Also a symptom of someone
trying to lose weight.

My man was getting shredded.

What if he was
preparing for a fight?

Huh. Like a fight
with prize money.

That would solve
some money issues.

Yeah. But...

Hello?

Big Ed. It's Lou's friend Trey.

Listen, man, I got
a question for you.

Do you know of any
underground fights tonight

with a big cash payout? Yeah.

As a matter of fact,
I do. That's great.

You got an address?

Hey.Hey.

This reminded me of when, uh,
we all snuck into that barn

after junior year bonfire.
You remember that?

I remember the party.
Don't remember after.

Fair enough.

Who brings 190
proof grain alcohol?

Hoyt.

Hoyt does. Hoyt.

Hoyt did, yeah.Yeah. Did, yeah.

I wonder if this is what
he would have wanted.

Us together?

All-all of us together?

I used to think I
knew what he wanted.

Then I learned about his land.

All that he must
have dreamt of and

never told me.

I underestimated him.

Yeah, I think we all did.

I think he felt like
if-if people didn't expect

too much from him, then he
wouldn't let anybody down.

You know? But we all
expected the world from him

because of all that
he brought into it.

You know, light, loyalty.Yeah.

All those years, he
thought he owed my family.

And I'm the one
who let him down.

You couldn't have
kept that boy from

fighting for you if you tried.

He, uh...

He-he told me that

I was the reason he was alive.

Those were my last
moments with him.

Him saying that to
me, and me saying no.

To him. To that.

Yeah, I made a lot of, uh...
I made a lot of mistakes

after Emily passed.

And I guess I'm
finally realizing that

what I needed to
do was be around

the people who love me most.

Which, by the way,
uh, we kept your name

on the Side Step lease.

You're still part owner,

so there's always a spot there

for you, if you want, with us.

Thank you.

Uh, I'm gonna hit the hay.Yeah.

Pun intended.

Good night.Night.

Hey, hey, hey.

Shh, shh, shh, shh.

Hey, girl, it's okay.

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Ah, you miss him, huh?

Yeah, I get it. I miss him, too.

I'm sorry I left
your boy behind.

I, uh, should have known better.

I know what it's like when
someone's family like that...

And now I'm talking
to a horse.

You know what?

Let's go fix this.

Hey, you know if Lou
Kirk fights tonight?

I don't know.

I haven't seen him.

Might be time to consider
other possibilities.

Are there any other fights
happening in Austin tonight?

Not within 300 miles.

He's just gotta be here.

You know what? Let me
try one more thing.

Hey, where's the fight promoter?

Thank you.

Hey, have you got a bantamweight
fighting tonight? Five-nine.

Crew cut. Name's Lou Kirk,

but he may be fighting
under an alias.

No, can't help you.

I'm busy, so...

We're not the
Athletics Commission.

We're not looking
to shut you down.

But I can. TREY: Hey, hey,

I just need to find
my friend. Please.

He's got an Army infantry tat
on his right leg, if that helps.

]

Lou.

Trey. What are you doing here?

Oh, I just...

I want to thank you.

I know it isn't easy for you

to step out of
your comfort zone,

you know, to do this
for me, and with me.

Mmm.

I just wish you'd do
more for yourself. Well

tonight's about Hoyt.

You know, I-I wasn't
blind to his heart.

I saw the joy he gave you.

Mm.

And I'm starting
to feel it myself.

Maybe it's too little,
too late, but...

No, it's not.

You know what I'm
gonna do? What's that?

I'm gonna grab Stan,
rustle up our youngest,

go on out to the shed,
grab 40 two-by-fours,

some roofing shingles
and a box of annular

ring shank nails.

That's what I'm gonna do.

What?

All right, hey, come on.

Come on now.

Soon as we get past this,
it's smooth sailing.

Galloping.

Hey, look, look, look.

Look at that. There's your mama.

Up there. Yeah. Yeah!

Look. There she
is. Okay, come on.

Come on.

Yeah, I know, I'm the one
who should've paid for this.

All right. Yeah.

For everything.

All right.

A little tricky getting up here.

Crap!

We're okay. All right.

Ooh. All right, okay.

Hey, hey, come on. Come
on.

Let's go to Mama, all right?

And I need this fight.

It's a huge payout,
even if I lose.

Trey, my family...
I get that.

But you can't fight
with CTE, man.

I tried getting a loan.

I've tried everything.

I sold my rifles,
all my valuables.

But it's not enough. In
a few months, I'll be

in the carpenters union, and
then I'll be financially set.

But I need this now.

What is happening right now?

I'll fight in your place.

All right? Hey, we
got the fight promoter

over a barrel since the
fight's unsanctioned.

And listen, the
jiu-jitsu training

that I learned in the Army,

I mean, that gives
me a fighting chance.

Okay, allergic to shirts.

Now, baby, you still have a TBI.

Look, I know it's not
as serious as a CTE,

but there's no way I'm
gonna let you make it worse.

Besides, you're nowhere near

his weight class.

Thank you.

Don't worry, Lou, if
we're being honest,

I was the jiu-jitsu star
during our deployment.

Uh, no, no, no, no

I know it sounds kind of crazy.

Yes, it does. And
irresponsible and dangerous,

and something that can cause
DPS a lot of grief; Micki, no.

You must understand
why Lou needs this.

I understand. I understand.
It's... Captain,

what wouldn't you
do for your son?

I can empathize
with doing anything,

with doing the crazy
for the ones you love.

And if I can help in any way,

I have to.

You're gonna do this no
matter what I say, aren't you?

Yes, I am.

Okay, okay...

Listen, I'm not here.

I was never here. Do
you understand that?

Never where? Abs,
are we clear on that?

Crystal.

There's the mare. Come on, guys,
let's go. It's gonna be okay.

All right, go.

Hey, Dad, we've been
looking for you.

Are you all right?
Hey, hey.

I'm good, I'm good.

Just, uh, had a little slip.

Nothing huge.
Gonna take it slow.

Are you all right?

Hey. You
went back for the llama?

Come on. STELLA: All
right, how can we help?

You yelled at me
earlier for doing, like,

the exact same thing,
trying to cross this alone.

First of all, that was
clearly the right advice.

Second, I wasn't
yelling, Stella.

This was a teachable moment.

All right, you know what, here.

Catch this.

Aunt Geri, help me
hold. Can you get this?

Uh, ha-ha!

Okay, okay, yep.
All right, I'm good.

All right, ready? Yeah, yeah.

All right, go ahead.

Hey, Dad, we could, uh,

use the jacket to wrap
the llama in as a harness.

Perfect. Yeah.Yeah. Ready?

There it is.

All right.Nice.

Look at this.

Nice thinking, Augie.

Thank you.

It's gonna work great.

Know what?

I owe you guys an apology. Uh

all we been through,

what this little
guy meant to Hoyt,

what Hoyt means to us...

I'm sorry I didn't
see it sooner,

just how much I
can count on you.

More than I ever imagined.

I hope y'all feel the same.

Yeah, well, I'm sure they do,
and that's all very sweet,

but can we please get you
up here to safety? Come on.

Let's pull, let's pull.
Yeah, yeah. All right, ready?

Uh, you know what?
I have a little bit of a

privileged view of this guy,

and I think he's a...
I think he's a she.

Come on. What?

And I think she's about
to give birth. What?

Gonna need all hands
on deck, ha-ha.

There you go, girl.

Come on, come
There. There you go.

No, no, no, no, no.
Don't try to leap him.

Good shot by Ramirez.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Body shot when he lunges.

Go for the takedown.

All that sounds like
good advice to me.

There you go, baby!

Oh, that's
my girl. Come on!

Get around him, get around him!

That's right, get around!

There you go!

Whoo-hoo!

Raucous
Ramirez is on top!

Micki and I had a black
belt sergeant in the Army.

He said that Micki
could teach him

how to sweep from this position.

There we go!

That's it. We're done!

I told you.

That's what I'm
talking about, baby!

Yes!

Baby, I gotta tell you, I've
never been more proud and scared

of you more than for you.

Never doubt.

Sergeant Carlson's star
pupil. Never again.

Mm-hmm. Not bad for
your first time.

Give me a call if you
ever want another fight.

I'll keep that in mind.

No, no, you won't.Hey, Lou.

Go home to your family.

That was the most
kind, crazy thing

anybody has ever done for me.

Thank you.Yeah.

Micki,

your partner's
rubbing off on you.

Although maybe you can teach me

that sweep sometime,
"Raucous Ramirez."

Oh, I'll show you a
thing or two. No, no, no.

Yeah, you don't want
those problems, bro.

I don't want any of that.

Hey, Liam, hand me that board.

He's stronger than
you think, you know.

He doesn't need our saving.

I'm starting to
think it wasn't him

I was trying to save.

I've been spinning my wheels
trying to control things

I just can't, and

trying to change the
past by controlling

the people I have left.

And I know it's stupid.

It's not.

I understand.

I made the appointment.

Radiation treatment.

I'd sure love it if
you came with me.

What's the matter?
Hand bothering you?

I think I may have jammed it.

Mm. Yeah, when you throw
a hook as hard as you do,

you're bound to hurt something.

Let me take a look.

Now, I'm sure you don't
need me to point out

how much you're
becoming more and more

like your old partner.

I don't need you
playing therapist.

I-I get the connection.

The-the reason why I was just so

driven to help Lou's family.

And

also the reason why I
was passive-aggressive

to Walker yesterday.

Given everything, it's...

It's still just hard for
me to trust in something

I don't want to lose.

You all went through a lot.

But he's still here.

You, too.

And me.

I know.Yeah.

I can't wait to
see Mawline's face

when she sees this little guy.

Hey, look. We're almost home.

You know, I'm glad we
all got to do this together.

Me, too.

You know what, um,

I think it might be
quicker for me to

take the bus the
rest of the way home.

The 290 west is
just over the hill.

Geri, the-the ranch
is right there.

I can drive you when
we get back. I know.

Listen, as nice as
this was... Yeah?

I just feel like
there's an ocean

of unsaid things between us.

And we're both too
scared to dip a toe in.

You know, Hoyt, it
reframed everything.

I'm sorry, I-I
didn't see it coming,

but it hits me hard, Cordi.

I-I understand. Me, too.

Hey, kids...

I'm gonna, uh, I'm
gonna peel off here.

I gotta take care
of some things.

And now, uh, so do you.

Thanks, Ger.

Whoa.Hey.

I love you. Love you, too.

Love you.

I love you.

Hey, Dad, you're not gonna
let Gramps sell 'em, right?

Hey, let me take care
of Gramps, all right?

Just, uh... Hey, Daddy.

Before you start, just
let me say something.

Yeah, Geraldine
called. Follow me.

Gramps, Hoyt left them for us.

And this one's
just a baby.Sorry.

I got a strict no-llama policy.

It's a good thing we
got an alpaca stable.

Wait, we got a-a what?

You're an idiot.
That ain't a llama.

What kind of
rancher's boy are you?

Anyhow, I reckon this'll
hold 'em for now.

We converted the tool shed
into an alpaca barn last night.

It should fit this
whole ragtag crew

of misfits you dragged home.

Wow. Dad, I, uh...

Your mother, Liam, Stan,

they did most of
the heavy lifting.

Is he crying?

Yeah. He's big,
but a soft touch.

Oh,
come on into the house.

Breakfast is waiting.

Thanks, Mawline. All right.

Let's put the family
in their new home.

All right, hand down. All right.

Here we go. You got it?

Yep, yep, yep, yep. All right.

There you go.

You got a name for
this little one?

Um...

Hoyt.

Hoyt.

That's a good name.

It's a great name.

Hey, hey, I just want
to say I feel blessed

to be here with three
generations of Walkers.

Now, if I can just
get your help to, uh,

apply a little peer
pressure to young Liam here.

That's for you.

First donation to your campaign.

What's wrong with you?

Oh, my goodness, you're
slicker than snake oil.

Using my son to split
the progressive vote.

Oh, as if I need help with
those nobody candidates.

Don't listen to your
pops. Don't. You, either.

I knew there...

I knew there was an
ulterior motive here.

Uh, you know what? Excuse
me.

Hey, Trevor.

So, I'm not really sure
when you'll hear this.

I'm not even sure
what to say, except...

I'm sorry, too.

I don't think I can visit.

I might just need to
leave the past behind,

you know?

And

my family still needs me.

Anyway, um, I hope

that you're healing... somehow.

And I hope at the very least

you know we were real.

Bye, Trevor.

Found it after you left.

Oh, ho-ho, come on now.

Wait, what'd you do?

Oh, you know I cannot
divulge confidential.

Ranger information
to a civilian.

Ow. Hey! You know that.

Did you get a little sun out
there, cowboy? Eh, a little bit.

Hey, um... Yeah?

I was holding a grudge earlier.

And I-I just...
I didn't know it.

Um, my whole Ranger journey

has been with your jackass,

and so when you left,
I just... I felt...

Adrift.Yeah.

I get it. We're good. Honest.

Come on, now.

You know, now I'm kind
of looking forward to

letting go of the whole
partner thing for a while.

Now we can just be friends.

Hell, Micki, we're not
friends. We're family.

When did you get
an alpaca? Yeah...

What?

Oh, she's beautiful. Hi.

Her and her baby girl.

So her baby's a girl, too?

You can tell just by looking?

Most people can, Walker.
