Walker: Independence (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - All In - full transcript

Kate.

Morning.

You're up early.

Yeah, a hotel doesn't run itself
into the ground, you know.

I was beginning to think
you're avoiding me.

I'm just bracing myself

in case Tom has any more
look-alike brothers.

It's just... It's
frustrating to feel like

we're back at square one, Abby.

Well, a wise woman once told me:

Be patient, build a case, and
eliminate any shadow of a doubt.



They do sound wise.

To be honest, we were never
actually able to place Tom

at the crime scene.

Shane was on the wagon trail

and his gun matches
the murder weapon.

Where is this godforsaken
doppelgaänger, anyway?

Mm, Tom is doing everything
he can to find him.

Yesterday, he left at dawn

and didn't come back
till last light.

Let's say he does find him,

you really think he's gonna
turn in his own brother?

He came to Kai's aid when
Shane turned against him.

Even if Tom didn't
kill your husband,

you know the Davidsons
are dangerous.



So you keep your guard up.

I thought you were going to
live out the rest of your days

like a king, Nathaniel.

Well, even a king has to
balance his pocketbook.

Here on business, then?

A man like me is
never not on business.

You care to tell me all
about it over a drink?

I thought after our
last conversation,

you'd never want to
speak to me again.

Well, I didn't say
it was a good idea.

I was really just
passing through.

Come on, you old goat. One
drink's not gonna kill you.

Unless you're still accepting
potions from strangers.

One. But not...

No. Of course not.

Come on.

Did you find him?

Not yet.

Shouldn't we be
starting a search party?

I mean, the longer we wait,

the farther away he gets.

I've considered
that, Miss Walker.

What is this case
to you, anyway?

The way you're talking,
you'd think Shane

was your brother, not mine.

The man's dangerous.

I'm concerned for the town.

And for you.

I mean, after all, he might've
already killed one sheriff...

I sent telegrams
across the county

to sheriffs with
an urgent warning.

I got a promising lead.

I'm gonna go track it down.

What will you do
if you find him?

Brother or not...

if Shane killed Liam Collins,
he'll get what he deserves.

I hope you're not planning
on taking any joyrides today.

The sheriff has a lead on
the killer of Liam Collins.

Does he now? Well...

Might have to wait on that
manhunt. A storm's coming.

I'd find someplace you
want to hunker down.

I'll be at the Side Step.

Well, Miss Walker...

looks like you're
about to live through

your first Texas dust storm.

Where'd you learn
how to tie that knot?

I grew up sailing.

Not much of that in these parts.

Are you going to make it
back to the cabin in time?

No, it's not safe. I'm
staying at Hagan's tonight.

What about you?

I'll be in my room, I guess.

It'll just be the
two of us then.

Is the hotel closed?

Not much business
today to begin with.

Everyone cleared
out this morning.

Don't worry.

Plenty of room to stay
out of each other's way.

Mm.

My lucky day!

- There you go, partner.
- Thank you so much.

- First one's on the house.
- Thank you.

There was a girl.

- You don't say.
- Mm-hmm.

I liked her.

And she liked me.

And where is this girl now?

Boston, I would assume.

So, apparently she didn't
like you that much.

I can assure you that she did.

You know, the place has really
gone to hell without you.

The sheriff threw a Fight Night.

It was beastly.

We've had some
times, haven't we?

You remember when you
taught me how to polka?

I couldn't walk for
three straight days.

No, you mean you couldn't
walk straight for three days.

It had nothing to do with
the Polka, you were drunk.

Well, if it ain't the
greatest showman on Earth.

Good to see you, too, Randall.

- How's business?
- Booming.

You,
on the other hand,

you must've been really
desperate to sell.

I wouldn't wish what happened
to me on my worst enemy.

- It wasn't about the money.
- Hmm.

Now, why don't you get us
a bottle of good whiskey,

none of that bottom
shelf hooch, huh?

What does that mean?

Nothing.

What, "I wouldn't wish
what happened to me

on my worst enemy"?
Nate, why did you sell?

Tell me the truth.

Katie, don't.

It was me, wasn't it?

The Davidsons were
coming for me.

Since you don't
care about money,

I guess you don't
mind paying up front.

That is, if you can.

Whoo.

Hey, look at this fella.

That cowpoke is
either incredibly thirsty,

or incredibly stupid.

Calian!

The horses need a
break, and so do we.

Hoping it'll reveal something
new each time you read it?

Half my life I
searched for my sister.

Now this piece of paper
says exactly where she's at.

"A 23-year-old native
woman named Nascha

recently moved to East
Texas with her husband."

This lead.

It came from a friend?

An officer high up in
the buffalo soldiers.

Can we trust him?

Well, he and I
didn't see eye to eye

on what the buffalo
soldiers have become.

And when I deserted,
he could've shot me.

But he didn't.

So, yeah. Yeah, I trust him.

Then we better hurry.

If I'm chosen as the new chief,
I want to lead the whole tribe.

The one person missing
from it is my sister.

Come on.

Hey. Come on.

We didn't know my
father had debts

until we cleaned out his desk.

Yeah, your padre was in a hole.

I helped him get out of
it when no one else would.

And we are so grateful,
but his death...

It don't change the
terms of the deal.

There is of course
one other option...

I'd be happy to take that
ranch off your hands.

That's barely enough
to live on for a year.

Why wouldn't you tell
me you need money?

Why should I tell you, huh?

When you couldn't even
handle working on the ranch.

Let's be honest, I would've
let you down sooner or later.

You know what?

I can't do this right
now with you, Hoyt.

I need time to think.

Well, don't you think
too long, little lady.

Interest accrues every day.

It occurs to me some
folks around here

might be getting a
little comfortable.

You know, someone should really
take this guy down a notch.

Hit him where it hurts?

You okay?

You got a little something here.

Oh.

I have never seen
a storm like this.

One minute it's on the
horizon, the next...

Okay. We're safe in here.

So... what do we do now?

We just ride out the storm.

Oh, close this.

I meant...

- to pass the time.
- Pass the time?

Summer I turned 13,
it rained so much

my sister and I were stuck in
the attic telling ghost stories.

I fancied myself
another Mary Shelley.

Ghost stories and sailing.

Here, put these here.

Sounds like a happy childhood.

Did you, uh, spend a lot
of time on the water,

growing up in New England?

Avoided it like the plague.

How come?

We were on a boat one day

and Shane accused me
of stealing his candy.

Then he pushed me in the water.

Problem was, I couldn't swim.

I almost drowned that day.

That's awful.

And my father pulled me out,

and he saved me.

And then he beat the hell
out of me for stealing.

And I never even
touched Shane's candy.

It was black licorice.

Hate that stuff to this day.

Mm, so do I.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Oh, no.

There's
someone out there.

Could it be Shane?

Whoever it is,
they need our help.

Hey!

Hey, over here!

All right, yeah.

Come on.

Tom!

Come on.

- Got these in the Barbary Coast.
- Festive.

Oh, yeah? Well, that's rich

coming from a
philandering con artist.

Oh, maybe if you weren't
such a ball-busting shrew.

Did you know that a shrew is
a small, mouse-like animal?

Vicious, they kill
six people a year.

I knew I should've gone
to the White Doves.

We need a fourth.

Randall!

What?

Why don't you come and join us?

Huh? Old times' sake?

Bury the hatchet?

Couldn't find a rattlesnake
with a penchant for gambling?

I don't play with cheaters.

What's with everyone
calling me names today?

I've
seen your tricks.

Hoyt, take
your shirt off.

That's awfully
forward, even for you.

Not on your life.

Show him you don't have
cards up your sleeves.

What?

Oh, my God.

You know, somehow I thought
you'd be faster at this.

Pants, too.

Oh, come on now.

That is truly against
everything good and holy.

Afraid for everyone to see
what it is you're covering?

Might want to back up a bit.

It's been all coiled
up for a spell.

Pathetic.

What are you all playing?

The game is five-card draw.

Looks like Hoyt's already lost.

No, I'm just more
comfortable this way.

- Mm-hmm.
- That's all.

Can I join?

There's a buy-in, sweet pea.

If you got the cash,
pull up a chair.

You know what? I'll float you.

Least I can do for
my goddaughter.

Ante up, Madame
Mustache, let's play.

Cut.

You sure picked
the right day to travel.

I had to stop in Independence.

My late husband Harry and I
met right here at Hagan's.

20 years ago.

I wanted to celebrate
our anniversary in style.

Did you grow up in town?

My father had
investments in the area.

In the evenings, he's
drop my mother and me off

to watch the burlesque shows
while he tended to business

at the hotel across the street.

One night, a handsome fur
trapper asked me to dance.

Mother was horrified.

I understand.

Mm.

Excuse me.

How about
the two of you?

I bet there's a story there.

We met on my very first day
in town. Not that long ago.

You must have been
pleased about this new arrival.

I knew right away there was
something special about her.

Oh.

So I made her my law clerk.

Oh, my.

Tom.

Are we going to be all right?

This storm doesn't seem to
be letting up anytime soon.

It's actually getting worse.

Are you worried about Shane?

About the search being delayed?

Yeah, I am.

Mm.

There was a singer
here years ago,

a girl from Mexico.

Voice of an angel.

That's pretty, sweet
pea, let's hear it.

Come on, love. Come on.

Come on, let's get the laundry.

It's her.

Here you go.

Well, you want to go say hi?

I thought I was coming
here to rescue Nascha.

Now I see her...

She does not need saving.

She does not need me.

Calian...

If you walk away now...

it'll haunt you for
the rest of your life.

- Trust me.
- Calian?

Calian?

It's you, isn't it?

How did you find me?

I'm sorry, I don't
really remember Apache.

What... What do you remember?

Fire.

People screaming.

Being frightened.

And before that night?

Do you remember the
tribe? Our people?

I remember you.

Did you...

Did you ever come
looking for me?

I grew up hundreds
of miles from here.

My parents...

Parents?

Who... What parents?

The people who raised
me as their own...

when the Comanche left
me outside of their town.

Comanche?

Is that what your
parents told you?

Nascha, the men who
slaughtered our people...

stole you.

They hid behind costumes.

Furs, coats, feathers.

White settlers pretending to
be Comanche to avert blame.

My parents did their best...

to protect me from my past.

Did you...

not want to know
where you came from?

There was a time when
I would ask myself:

who am I?

Where do I come from?

Did my people
survive that night?

Did my brother?

Wherever we moved, I found
the nearest Native camp.

I said the only
sentence I remembered.

Over and over again.

But no one ever understood me.

Over time, I just...

Forgot.

I had to
let go of one world.

To be whole in the other.

Why are you wearing that star?

Well, because I'm
the deputy sheriff.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

I bet your wife is proud of you.

She used to be.

Are you happy?

My husband is a good man.

And my daughter, she...

lives without doubt
of who she is...

and where she belongs
in this world.

You did it for her.

Do you have children?

Is there someone
special in your life?

You used to have a...

a corn husk doll.

I never saw you without it.

Do you remember?

That's okay.

Just don't forget...

Is this your first time back
since you met your husband here?

Oh, we came back
for our honeymoon.

Mr. Hagan put us up
in his nicest room.

But to be honest, Harry
and I barely left it.

Married or not, all that matters
is finding that person to...

ride out the storm with.

I couldn't agree with that more.

Care to know my secret
for a long, happy marriage?

- Yes.
- Yes.

Appreciate every
inch of the other.

Not just the obvious bits.

Okay.

All right.

How about some of that
famous Hagan's entertainment?

Don't mind if I do.

I must insist on one dance.

Don't mind if I do.

Wait, are you... are you leading?

No, how about...
How about I lead?

Oh, it's all coming
back to me now.

Cut your
losses now, folks,

or Hoyt ain't gonna be the
only one losing his shirt.

Speaking of, can I put my
damn clothes back on now?

- No.
- No, absolutely not.

You know why it's
called poker, right?

You're supposed to
have a poker face.

I saw that. I saw that!

You two are trying to con me!

Con you?

You got a hell of an
imagination on you, boy.

- Randall, calm down.
- I don't tolerate no cheating!

- All right, listen.
- We're all friends here.

H-Hang on, listen.

If you're gonna get hysterical
about it, look, see.

There. I'm out. So is he.

Hoyt...

I know what I saw.

Oh, is that funny, is it?

It's ironic, cheating's the one
thing you have going for you.

You're out of the
game, the two of you.

- Aces.
- Ah, I'm out.

I guess we're done here.

One more hand.

Cut your losses, Lucia,

while you still got
some money left.

It's not enough to pay
back my father's debts.

- But you don't know what you're doing.
- Hey.

If the cattle baroness
wants to play, let her play.

All right, ante up.

It's your bet, Randall.

Call.

Randall?

One.

How many, Lucia?

One. No, two.

To you, Randall.

You all in?

Honey...

It's all right to
fold. You can fold.

Yeah.

I want to raise, too.

Sorry, darling, you
ain't got nothing left to bet.

- Yes, I do.
- Huh?

The ranch.

- What? Are you out of your mind?
- Déjalo.

Think about your father, Lucia.

That's exactly who
I am thinking of.

Listen, Randall, you
can't accept this.

- Of course I can.
- The way I see it,

that ranch is worth more

than all the chips on the table

and what her family
owes you combined.

If you want to play this hand,

you're gonna have to
put something else in.

All right.

All this...

and the saloon ought to do it.

What you got, Randall?

Oh,
look at that hand.

He's got a flush.

Sorry, little lady.

Whoa, whoa.

For what?

This should cover
my father's debts,

but I'd be happy to
let you borrow more.

Plus interest, of course.

To you.

Not bad.

Songbird.

Cattle baroness.

Card shark.

Anything you can't do?

Nope.

It was all part of you
and Kate's genius plan.

Mm-hmm.

We have to make Randall believe

Lucia and I are at odds.

Well, she can throw
some insults at you.

Shouldn't be hard.

That's rich, coming from
a philandering con artist.

Randall has to think
Hagan doesn't have

his wits about himself.

Nate, be drunk.

I'll deal from the
bottom of the deck

to give Randall a hand

that's gonna make
him see dollar signs

and keep him in the game.

I can tap the
table just loud enough

for Randall to hear.

I saw that.

He'll think he caught us

and his guard will come down.

Randall never saw me coming.

Yeah, how could that fool know
you learned from the very best?

- And two Founding Fathers.
- Mmm.

And a degenerate outlaw.

That's right.

But I think it's time that
you do something different.

What?

I'm, uh, officially
putting you in charge...

of running the Side Step.

Do I have to call
you "boss" now?

Mm. Only in the bedroom.

Are you ready?

Oh, my God, that-that
is incredible.

- You are truly an artist.
- Hmm.

Well, let's see yours.

Uh, I-I'm better at...

you know, plants than faces.

Come now, how bad could it be?

Ah. That is...

Abstract.

Tom, I think your art
is ahead of its time.

Oh, is that right?

If anyone asks, uh,

just tell them a
child drew mine.

So, where did your friends go?

Somewhere else.

And they left you here with me?

A sheriff and a law clerk
riding out a storm together.

How did we end up here?

It's interesting how
the two loneliest people

in Independence are together.

Do you feel alone?

Maybe I choose to be.

I suppose it comes from...

Losing someone.

Best we turn in for the evening.

Calian, I don't
know what to say.

Appreciate you.

What is there to say?

I spent half my life living in
the shadow of guilt and remorse.

Not taking on more here.

Not feeling like I deserved
a family of my own.

I didn't just lose Nascha, I
lost myself looking for her.

You didn't lose yourself.

Calian.

Rifles and arrows?

What happened?

The tribe chose a leader
who wants to go to war.

- A war with who?
- The railroad.

First Taza, then
Nascha, now this.

Hey.

You're not alone.

What do you want to do?

Taza believed I could use my
relationship with the town.

Prevent this, somehow.

Then I know some people
we need to go see.

Remember our last dust storm?

When we had to hide out
with that traveling circus

and you damn near
broke your neck

trying to learn
how to do trapeze?

Hey, I was fantastic.
Those screws were loose.

No, I mean when we had to
overnight in that silver mine

and you found a
dinosaur skeleton.

That's right. Should've
brought it home with us.

We would've made a fortune.

That was our last storm.

Listen, what, uh...

What say I come with you?

A little trip to London?
Go visit the Globe?

I could just go get my things.

Katie.

No.

One day, you have to
stop outrunning yourself.

What's inside.

Might as well start now, kiddo.

Huh?

Besides...

I need someone to keep
the soul of Hagan's alive.

You're the only
one that can do it.

Am I
gonna see you again?

I was thinking of opening
a shop in Abilene.

Like hell. What kind?

A hat shop, obviously.

Maybe you come visit?

I'll think about it.

Oh.

Oh. Thank you.

I think I know you
from somewhere.

Mm.

Sheriff?

Did you have some kind of party?

I'm gonna go ahead and assume
my invite got lost in the mail.

So you're sleeping here now?

Well, I suppose I lost my
roommate after all, didn't I?

Kate.

Shane!

Shane!
