Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001): Season 3, Episode 15 - War Zone - full transcript
( suspenseful theme playing)
TRIVETTE (whispers): See, I
told you that snitch was lying.
"It's gonna be a midnight run."
It's midnight right now.
You know what's going on,
he's looting another facility.
They'll be here.
He says they'll be
here, they'll be here.
How long you guys
known each other?
DPS training.
We was a pair to draw to.
Me, the original
hell-raiser, and Cordell
with that quiet,
Cherokee attitude.
Gets real mad when he's pushed.
We put a Texas-sized
hurt on any bad guys
who refused to salute the
Rangers, God and country,
in that order.
(vehicle approaching)
Here they come.
Let's do it.
Let's go, Hanks.
Bet mine goes down first.
I'll bet you dinner.
You got it.
(grunting)
Damn. A big steak,
baked potatoes,
black-eyed peas.
All right, all right.
Those are ours. No,
actually, those are yours now.
Put 'em on.
(grunting)
See, now I'm late
for dinner. Put 'em on!
(grunting)
Just like old times, Cordell.
You mean this is more fun
than working for the governor?
That was a rotten
thing you did to me.
Better you than me.
LOGAN: Nobody
in their right mind
would do this for
a living, Cordell,
unless...
it was in their blood.
Busting bad guys, it's more than
thinking we make a difference.
It's a religious experience.
At least I used
to tell Molly that,
but she'd just sit there
in that quiet way
of hers and say,
"Logan, you'd better get
yourself a nice, safe job
while you can still walk."
(chuckles)
(rock music playing, chattering)
GIRL: All right!
BOY 1: Show 'em what you got!
Line up on the
side out of the way!
Hey, kid, come on.
You ready for a
ride on the wild side?
That's okay, Vernon. (chuckles)
Come on.
Now.
BOY 2: Do it!
Come on, boys, move along!
(engines revving)
(crowd cheering)
WALKER: You're not thinking
of hanging it up, are you?
Amigo,
some people get
shot out of cannons,
some people climb mountains
to see what's on the other side,
but me, I'm a Texas
Ranger for life.
You might as was well face it.
Dana,
bless her heart.
She's put her life
on the same track.
But Keith, hmmm.
Can't seem to
get through to him.
The fishing trip didn't help?
(sighs)
I don't know
whether he hates
fishing or just hates me.
Ever since Molly died, I...
Well, he's a teenager,
Logan. What can you do?
Boy, howdy.
You know, raging
hormones, loud music,
funny-looking haircut.
He got the whole package.
(sighs) It's not easy.
(engines revving,
crowd cheering)
(tires squealing)
GIRL: Come on, come on, come on!
BOY: Go get him!
(cheering, tires squealing)
Whoa, there's an
accident waiting to happen.
(tires squealing)
(ominous theme playing)
They're cops, they're cops.
Oh, come on. Do something.
Hold on, hold on, hang on.
Hang on, hang on.
Oh, man, they're getting
closer. Dude, they're right on us.
Shut up, shut up!
Hey, hey, look out!
(tires squealing)
Keith.

Oh, sorry. What do you
want me to say, I'm sorry?
I don't know what happened.
I wasn't even speeding.
We'll let the judge
decide that. Take him in.
All right. OFFICER 1:
We combed the area...
OFFICER 2: Come on, son.
OFFICER 3: Come
to the station with us.
It's not my fault.
I didn't wanna ride with him.
Honest.
But damn it, Keith,
you were riding with him.
What the hell were you doing?
I was just a passenger.
I didn't have
anything to do with it.
Don't cop an
attitude with me, son.
Or what?
W-what, you gonna ground me?
I'm sick of being treated
like I was 10 years old.
WOMAN (over radio):
in the downtown area...
(sighs)
(indistinct speech
over police radio)
MAN: Here, Jerry,
give you a hand.
You know, Keith, you
could have been killed.
(siren wailing)
Dad?
It's your brother again.
I got your call,
Walker. Is he okay?
Yeah, he's okay. He's
one lucky kid, though.
Are there any charges?
Against the driver.
Not against Keith
if he cooperates.
LOGAN: And while you're at it,
maybe you can figure
out what makes him tick,
'cause I can't.
( somber theme playing)
TRIVETTE: Good
morning, yeah. (hums)
You know what?
What?
That was something, man,
working with Logan
Reno last night.
Did you know
that his grandfather
was one of the
original Texas Rangers
that took down Bonnie and Clyde?
Yep.
Oh, you knew that.
Why would you break
up a partnership with him?
I didn't.
He went to work for the governor
as his personal bodyguard.
Oh.
That's how I wound up with you.
You're lucky to have me.
Pffft!
You know what? I
heard that it was you
that was supposed to be
the governor's bodyguard.
Yeah, he tried.
But I convinced him that Logan
was the best man for the job.
Heh! I don't think Logan's
ever forgiven me for that.
I wonder what it would be like
to be Logan Reno's son.
Heh! Well, maybe
he'll adopt you.
Let's see, James Reno.
It has a ring to it.
James Reno, Texas Ranger.
(chuckles)
(chuckles)
Hank, this looks interesting.
What you got?
Cordell, Trivette,
might have something
cooking here, boys.
What you got, pops?
"Pops"?
New business going down.
Perps wearing clown masks
using military precision.
Got some feedback on unsolves
from Houston, Tulsa
and Oklahoma City.
They match two recent
hits in the metroplex.
Yeah, these boys
know what they're doing.
Yeah, they pulled several
heists in each of the cities.
Yeah, which means
they'll hit again.
I hope you didn't get too soft
working for the governor, Logan.
Cordell,
I'm meaner and tougher
than you ever hoped to be
and I wanted to
get back into action
from the second you
railroaded me to Austin.
I didn't railroad you, Logan.
All I did was
convince the governor
of his great
qualities, that's all.
Sold me down the
river's what he did.
Trivette, you gotta watch him.
I used to consider
this guy like...
Like family.
(grunts)
Oh, that hurts, Logan.
That really hurts.
Ha! Only kidding.
(all laugh)
( melancholy theme playing)
MAN: Okay, I'll be right over.
We'll save you a seat inside.
All right, gentlemen, in
18 minutes we cash out.
Lock and load.
Listen, Cordell, I...
I lost my temper last
night and I shouldn't have,
but I honestly don't know
what to do about Keith.
Well, I'd just give him
a little space, Logan.
I'm sure he'll come around.
Well, I hope so. This Sunday,
Dana's gonna cook
up a roast, if you're free.
Hey, you can count me in.
All right.
( ominous theme playing)
All right, people, suit up.
Bludgeon to Backup,
we're going in.
(gun cocks)
(tires squealing)
Hey, what do you
think you're doing?
(people screaming)
Come on, lay down! Get down!
Move, move, get the money! Move!
Give me a hand!
(indistinct shouting)
Get that other
sack. Move. All right.
Stay down! Get down!
Lady, don't move!
MAN (over radio): All units, robbery
in progress, KDA Benefit and Concert.
Dallas P.D., this is
Texas Ranger Five,
we're three minutes
away and responding.
Roger that.
Logan, go to Tech Two.
Looks like we're back
in business, Cordell.
I'll catch you later at C.D.'s.
You'll catch us before
that. We're your backup.
Don't make a move
till we get there.
Well, come on, partner. I'll
flip you for the paperwork.
(gun cocks)
Quickly, people.
Move, move. Quickly.
Give me the money!
Come on.
All right, let's move, let's go.
(tires squealing)
Texas Rangers.
Drop your weapons.
Okay. Okay, you got us.
We'll go peacefully.
Any time, Backup.
Go! (tires squeal)
(grunting)
(grunting)
( somber theme playing)
Move!
Let's get outta here.
(gunshots)
(groaning)
How is he?
How is he?!
PARAMEDIC: The cashier and
the security guard are all right.
Ranger Hanks caught
one in the lower back.
It's hard to say how he'll do.
The license numbers
we got were stolen.
Dana.
I'm sorry.
(sobbing)
WALKER: Dana?
Come on, Dana. Come on.
( somber theme playing)
(inaudible dialogue)
WALKER: Logan Reno
was a Texas Ranger,
one of the finest to
ever wear the star.
His father was a Ranger,
as was his grandfather.
Logan loved his family,
maybe more than
they'll ever know.
And now he's with
his beloved Molly.
Logan lived by a code,
and he spoke the
truth as he saw it.
Something Logan used to
say rings more true today
than ever before.
A Ranger who's not
willing to die for justice
is not really a Ranger.
You're the best friend a
Ranger ever had, Logan,
and I'm gonna miss you.
CAPTAIN: Forward, pull.
Fire position. Move.
Ready, aim, fire.
(guns cock, gunshots)
Ready, aim, fire.
Ready, aim, fire.
Cease-fire.
Present halt.
(bagpipes play "Amazing Grace")
This flag is presented on
behalf of the state of Texas
in remembrance of the
faithful and honorable service
of your loved one.
( ominous theme playing)
(chattering)
How's Wade Hanks?
Well, they still got
him in intensive care.
He's gonna make it, though.
Whether he walks
again, that's another story.
C.D.: That's a damn
shame. TRIVETTE: Yeah.
You got any leads
on those shooters?
Well, we found the
van and the four-by-four
they used as backup,
abandoned, wiped clean.
Both of 'em stolen.
Yeah, and we found
eight shell casings.
Same m.o. as the other jobs.
You know, you hit one of those
suckers an inch above the heart,
he barely even flinched.
C.D.: Hmmm.
Bulletproof vest.
Yeah. So I put out a trace
of the police and
military supply houses.
That had to be
state-of-the-art to stop that load.
Well, it's a shame
Dana lost her dad.
Now she's gotta
raise her kid brother.
Yeah, that's gonna be tough.
Yeah, she's a good
person, though.
She can handle it.
I hope so.
(rock music playing over stereo)
(door closes)
(music stops)
Hey, don't mess with my music.
(music starts)
(music stops)
Put the ball away.
Get ready for school.
Who made you boss?
Hey, playtime is over, Keith.
Now, it's been a week.
We've gotta get
on with our lives.
So I miss another day of
chopping up frogs, so what?
Besides, they gave you time off.
That's the department's
idea, not mine.
You know I'd much
rather be working.
Yeah, well, if it's
good enough for you,
it's good enough for me.
Now give me the ball.
No, you are going to school.
No, you can't make me.
Get in that house.
You're not my mother.
Hey, you two, I can hear you
all the way down the street.
I cleaned out your
father's locker.
Thanks.
Aren't you supposed
to be in school?
I'm not going.
Oh, yes, you are.
Go in there and get ready.
Thanks, Walker.
How are you holding up?
I've been better.
What am I gonna do with him?
Well, he's been kicked
right in the gut again.
First your mom,
and now your dad.
It's gonna take
time for both of you.
I know. I know, but I'm a cop.
I'm not a mother or a father.
Well, I'll talk to him,
and don't forget, I'm
always here for you, okay?
You know, there's
something you could do.
What's that?
Use your influence.
Get them to let me
come back to work, now.
I don't think it's a good idea.
Oh, come on. You
think it's therapeutic
sitting around all day,
listening to the clock tick?
Reading sympathy cards and
watching the
funeral flowers wilt?
I need to get back
to work, Walker.
I'll see what I can do.
Thanks. Come on.
Hey.
Unh!
Okay, people, this is
not a drill. Suck floor.
Get the money. Get the money.
Give me the money.
Hand me the bag.
Put the money in the bag.
What are you looking at?
Do not look at me.
Do you understand?
Come on. Ándale, ándale!
Put the bags on
the counter. Now!
Stay down. Get down.
Let's see your hands.
Get the money. Go, go.
If anyone says anything
about you being late,
have them call me.
Look, um, you don't understand.
You're wrong, Keith.
I do understand.
When my parents were killed,
I felt just the same way you do.
I had a hard time
expressing my feelings too.
It's like I'm still numb.
I don't know what to feel.
I mean, I miss my dad, but...
He was the world's
greatest everything.
Marine, Ranger, bass fisherman.
You name it, he had the T-shirt.
Me, I'm the world's
worst everything.
C's in all my classes, didn't
make the football team.
I don't even like fishing.
And the last thing on earth
I wanna do is be a Ranger.
That's all he ever
talked about, though.
I never even had a choice.
Well, I knew your father
as well as I knew anyone.
All he did was brag about you.
He loved you very much.
Yeah, well, how come
he never told me that?
I guess he should've.
But now that he's gone,
you've gotta make
some smart choices,
and one of those choices
is staying in school.
What, we back to that now?
That's right, and I'm gonna
see that you stay in school.
MAN (on radio): Walker, come in.
Go ahead.
Yeah, they hit again.
( suspenseful theme playing)
How much was taken?
About... two hundred-fifty
thousand inside,
another 90 to 100 that
was being delivered outside
by the armored car.
Thank you.
What are you doing here?
Making a deposit. Why?
Come on, Dana.
Okay, I heard it on the scanner.
Look, I'm not gonna sit
around watching TV all day.
I need to get back to work.
Have you talked to Preston?
I just left you. Now go home.
You don't understand. I
have to be involved in this.
As soon as we get a lead, you'll
be the first one to know, okay?
No, I want in on it now.
Dana, you're too close to this.
You were my
father's best friend.
I still am.
Now go home.
Wish I could be more help,
but all I saw was three
guys in clown masks.
The next thing I remember
was him holding up two fingers,
and asking if I
could count to one.
What happened?
I'm sorry, Mr. Mueller.
We didn't have a prayer.
Who are you, sir?
Burt Mueller.
It's our company.
We got the security
and the armored trucks.
Well, Mr. Mueller,
I'm afraid one of your
guards has been killed.
Who was it?
Tom Housley.
Ohh... I should've got
out of the truck sooner.
Oh, my God.
Ah... Ahhhh!
Hey, hey, hey. (moaning)
Okay, okay, here we go.
Come on, in the
chair here. Okay.
There we go!
(coughs)
Looks like a heart attack.
Osheroff, get me
some oxygen and an IV.
Ugggghhhhh!
What hospital?
Memorial.
Memorial Hospital.
They're taking him in for tests.
Remind me to get a
physical next week.
You just had a physical.
Remind me to get another one.
Funny how life turns out.
Logan always dreamed of
Keith going into law enforcement,
but it wound up
being his daughter.
Think Keith will come around?
I sure hope so.
Look at this.
The point man
takes out the guard,
the two flankers cover
the back and side.
All the bagman has to
do is collect the money.
Not one wasted move.
Just like a precision
military operation.
Haven't been able to match that
exact m.o. with any other gang.
Looks like we got a
whole new wild bunch here.
Let's see what we got.
So far, they've collected
$50,000 from the supermarket,
70,000 from the
check cashing store,
100,000 from the concert
and 350,000 from the bank.
So they're climbing the ladder.
Each hit's topping the last.
The van and the four-by-four
seen outside the bank
were found abandoned.
Both are hot.
What about the military angle?
I generated a list
of dishonorable
dischargees in the area.
What about vets
that had a problem
with the military police?
And I accessed the Army
and the Marine Corp database,
so that's 30 names
that fit the profile.
(computer beeps)
Make that 26. Four
of them are doing time.
(phone rings)
Walker.
Thanks, Fowler.
The lab came up
with a clean print
off one of the shell casings,
and R & I came up with a hit.
Manny Alberado.
Manny Alberado.
Hello.
Dishonorably discharged
after Desert Storm.
Suspected of three
strong-arm robberies.
Fugitive warrant outstanding.
I think he fits the profile.
You got an address?
Nothing.
Well, I think our next
move is to go where military
and wanna-be
military types hang out.
Does that mean the Hunt Club?
Yep.
Nobody goes to the Hunt
Club without a SWAT escort.
We do.
Walker.
I know how hard
losing Logan must be,
so if there's anything I can do,
or even if you
just wanna talk...
I appreciate it.
( progressive rock-country
blend plays in background)
Manny Alberado.
Yeah, I remember him, vaguely.
Has he been in lately?
No, not for a couple of weeks.
You know where we can find him?
What do I look like,
his travel agent?
Are you still running those
illegal card games in the back?
Touch that and I'll
break your finger.
Well, you wanna go check?
Sure.
So are you winning, Manny?
Manny?
No way, man.
A lot of people tell
me I look like that guy,
but I'm not him.
Isn't that right, Jumbo?
Then you won't mind
coming downtown,
and answering some questions.
He's not going anywhere
until he finishes this hand.
Well, he was bluffing, anyway.
Auuugh!
Ha, ha!
Thank you very much.
Are you sure it was the Rangers?
I saw the badges.
Bartender recognized
one of them.
Walker's the name.
I gotta tell you, this dude
ain't nobody to mess with.
Teele's right, man. That Walker,
he's a legend around here.
What's your point, Ross?
We about got what
we came here for, right?
You know, maybe we
ought to fold our tent,
split the cash, let's get
the hell out of Dodge.
(gasping)
That just cost you 5
percent of your share, Ross.
Anybody else here concerned
about the Ranger, huh?
I didn't think so.
Hey, what's shaking, Hanks?
Hi. As well as can be expected.
Heard you nailed one of them.
Yeah, we nailed him,
but the judge let him out.
All we got was name,
rank and serial number.
(scoffs)
What the hell are
you doing here?
You ought to be out tracking
the rest of those scumsuckers.
Oh, just thought
we'd drop by and see
if there's anything
we can do for you.
Nothing. Nothing at all.
Not unless you could spare
a couple of healthy legs.
Hey, don't mind me.
I... I know I'm better
off than Logan.
I am gonna fight this thing,
until I'm standing on my feet,
and look the slime who
did this square in the eye.
And we're gonna
see that you do it, too.
I'm glad to see you're okay.
Oh, that makes two of us.
You ever see so much paperwork?
You'd think there was really
something the matter with me.
Heart attacks aren't
something to joke about there,
Mr. Mueller.
I know.
But it looks like I beat
this one before it beat me.
You ever see this guy
hanging around your company,
talking to your
guards or employees?
No, sir, I can't say as I have.
Could he have been the
one that hit your truck?
I told you, they were
wearing masks, and...
No, sorry, I have never
seen that guy before.
Tell me something. You
gentlemen really think
some of my people
are involved in this?
Well, we're not
ruling anything out.
Thanks.
( suspenseful theme playing)
( suspenseful theme swells)
(gunshots)
(women screaming)
Throw her in.
OFFICER: And the
chalk too, bring it.
They're our guys.
They changed
their pattern, though.
They used a limo
and a laundry truck.
How bad is it?
One dead, two wounded.
TRIVETTE: Yeah, they
took 600,000 in cash.
They knew to hit
when the vault was full.
So it's probably an inside job.
Yeah, I think so.
So we're checking
the credit union,
the armored-car company,
and the accounting firm.
Well, I just came from downtown.
The mayor wants to
put together a task force.
All city, state and county
law enforcement agencies,
and your captain wants you
two to head up the Rangers.
ALEX: The DA's office
has been working with
Rangers Walker and Trivette.
Now, they have developed
several lists of potential suspects,
but... these men
are on our A-list.
And they all fit the
ex-military profile,
and they're all known
to be in the area,
but nowhere to be found.
We know this sucker's involved.
We busted him on
an assault charge.
We got him downstairs.
Right now he's being
less than cooperative.
What about his known associates?
We're running them.
I'll have a list for
you this afternoon.
All right, what we got is,
every hit is bigger
than the last one.
Walker thinks that they're using
one robbery to
train for the next.
So if he's right,
then the next target
could exceed over
a million dollars.
The logical move would
be to research the firms
that have that kind
of cash on hand.
And stake them out.
Now we're talking about
a lot of manpower here.
Now, I don't know if we can
make that many officers available.
Have the mayor cut
you a bigger check.
I don't care if
it's a meter maid.
We need someone
peeking in a window,
every time a cash
drawer is opened.
I'll see what I can
do. Anything else?
Yeah, there is one thing.
We have reason to believe
that this is an inside job.
We're doing background checks
on all past and current employees.
That's good. Hopefully
that'll narrow it down some.
Okay, we got a
lot of work to do.
Let's get out
there and get busy.
( nervous theme playing)
I'll see you later inside.
You got it, Walker.
What's the matter, Dana?
Keith's gone.
Where? I don't know.
We had a fight, he stormed out
and said he wasn't coming back.
I'll see if I can find him.
Walker, it's my fault.
I'm driving us both crazy.
I... I can't stay home.
I gotta get back to work.
Hey, Bob?
You think you could
put Dana back on duty?
Well, you think
it's the best thing?
Yeah, I do.
Okay, you go back on patrol,
but you let Walker handle
this case. You understand me?
Yes, sir.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Okay.
( dramatic theme playing)
Prevent Security.
Hands up now! Get down!
Nobody move!
Come on.
Metro Three, we're at the
sports arena on a suspicious van.
Send us backup.
WOMAN: Rangers Two,
what's your position?
We're at Commerce and Elm.
Go to Tack Six.
Rangers Two, over.
MAN: We got a call
from Metro Officers at
Dallas Arena requesting backup.
Suspicious vehicle,
armored car on the scene.
We're on it.
Come on, go, go, go!
Backup, earn your keep.
Go, go, go.
Let's go. Quickly.
Come on. Bolton!
How you doing?
Hey, I got an officer down
north side of the sports arena.
Send an ambulance.
He shot his own man.
Yeah, these guys don't
leave any witnesses.
What did he yell?
Bolton?
Sounded like it.
Why don't you run a
check on every Bolton
that has a military background.
All right.
Walker, I got him.
"Mitch Bolton,
captain, Special Forces.
"Explosives specialist,
martial arts expert.
"Dishonorably discharged.
Suspected of
torturing prisoners."
That's a bad boy.
Hard to believe he was
ever on Special Forces.
Just like a bad cop.
I'll put this out on
a citywide bulletin.
We gotta find out who
the inside man is on this.
Why don't you take this
over to Sundance Security.
I'll talk to Mueller at Prevent.
No, sir, this is a bad hombre.
I never saw him before in
my life, and a fellow like this
could never get
mixed up with my outfit.
Who knows the
schedules of your runs
and the amounts
being transported?
Clete Gibson would know that.
Who's he?
My dispatcher.
Been with me 15 years.
I'd like to talk to him.
He called in sick this morning.
I'd like to talk to him anyway.
You have an address?
I do. As a matter of
fact, I'll go with you.
You meet Clete Gibson,
you'll know in a minute
he's not mixed
up in any of this.
Let's go.
You betcha.
I appreciate your
bringing me along here.
I think you're barking up
the wrong tree, though.
I've known this
fellow a long time.
He's almost like family to me.
Well, we'll see, Mr. Mueller.
I thought you said
he called in sick?
Well, he did.
You know, could be
he's at the doctor's.
He could be a hundred places.
Just because he's
not here, you know,
don't make him a criminal.
Is this supposed to be here?
No, sir, it's not.
You know, after 15 years,
you'd think you'd get to
know a fellow, wouldn't you?
I'll be damned.
This is Walker.
Contact Trivette.
Have him get everything he can
on a Prevent Security
employee named Clete Gibson.
You got that? Clete Gibson.
WALKER: That's
Gibson's car, all right.
His phone records show
he made three toll calls
to that house this morning.
Like he had something
real urgent on his mind.
Let's go find out.
It's Clete Gibson.
Wanna help me?
Got him? Okay.
He's booby trapped,
Trivette. What?
Hold him up.
I can't believe I was
so damned stupid.
What do you wanna do?
Well, when he goes
down, this place is going up,
so, let's run like
hell, on three.
On three? Ready?
One, two, three.
(ticking)
You okay?
Did you say two or three?
Three for you, two for me.
Oh, man.
Bolton led us right into a trap.
He wanted us to
find Clete Gibson.
So he kills Gibson
to keep him quiet.
Or to take suspicion away
from the real inside man.
You got any idea
who that might be?
Have you completed
your background check
on all the employees at
Sundance and Prevent Security?
Wait. One moment.
Did we not almost get our butts
blown off back over there?
Geez!
Should I take that as a no?
Looking good.
It's better than kicking
in the wall at home.
I've looked everywhere
for Keith. Has he called?
No. Walker, I am worried sick.
Well, I know what he's
going through, Dana.
When my folks were killed, I
rebelled just like he's doing.
Yeah, but what if
something happens to him?
Well, don't worry.
We'll find him.
Come on.
(laughing)
(as Beavis): We drank
up all the beer, man.
That sucks.
(as Butt-head):
We need a beer run.
(as Beavis): I'm busted.
All my money went on bail.
What am I gonna do?
(as Butt-head): Uh, put
it on my account, man.
You know that's funny.
Hey, Keith, you steer, man.
I'm gonna need both hands free.
I hear you're having
a 100%-off sale.
Michelle, grab me
some cigarettes.
Hey, how you doing?
Get out of the way.
You're taking a bear?
You gotta be kidding me.
Hey, hey, hey, put the phone
down. Put the phone down.
Hold it right there!
OFFICER 2: All
right, I got those two.
Come on, man.
Vernon, he's a cop.
He's not taking me down.
No!
Freeze!
Drop the knife!
What have you got?
We may have something
on that inside man
we've been looking for.
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Mitch Bolton.
He was suspected of
stealing military ordinance
and selling it to drug
dealers in Panama.
But nobody can
nail him for the scam
because he used a middle man.
You know who it is?
Not yet, but at
about the same time,
Eugene Whitney
applied for a passport
and took a little
trip to Panama too.
Interesting. Yep.
Whitney's neighbors
say he keeps to himself.
Doesn't live above his means.
Well, not yet,
but my guess is Bolton's
still controlling the money.
According to the schedule,
that's the last stop.
Well, now we'll follow him to
the Federal Reserve Depository,
then we'll call it a day.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(engine sputtering)
Damn.
I told Mueller this unit
needed a new fuel pump.
Just sit tight.
I'll check it out.
Rangers, damn.
Bludgeon to Backup.
Abort the mission.
Repeat. Abort the mission.
Aborted.
Just a loose spark plug wire.
I don't get it.
If there was ever a
time for a hit, this was it.
Bolton made us.
Hey, leave me alone,
man. I'm not bothering you.
What's your name?
Keith.
Keith Reno.
Where'd you get
them boots, Keith?
They belonged to my father.
I want 'em. Now.
Forget it.
Well, well, I'll
bet you could use
a black cup of coffee about now.
C.D., you're a mind reader.
Nope, nope, I
just read the signs
and your signs say you
haven't slept in a good while.
How about that?
It's been a while.
That's not good, Alex.
Well, working
with this task force
has not lightened
my caseload any,
and there's just
not enough hours
in the day to get it all done.
It's Cordell, isn't it?
I thought you
weren't a mind reader.
I don't know what
I'm doing wrong, C.D.
I mean, we are so close,
we're such good friends,
and when he needs a friend most
that's when he
pulls away from me.
Well,
sometimes a man just
has to keep to himself.
Why?
I mean, I know he's
hurting over Logan's death,
and every time I mention it he
clams up tighter than a drum.
Honey, a man's just got
to do what he's got to do.
No, he doesn't.
I'm there for him. I
mean, at least I wanna be.
Alex, let me tell you something.
One time Cordell was
engaged to this little girl
out in El Paso.
Pretty little gal.
Little redhead.
He was a young trooper.
Every time they were together,
Christmas, New Year's
Eve, Fourth of July.
They really loved each other.
He took a bullet one
day. Wasn't his fault.
You know, so many of
us are just gonna get shot
every year, and that's
what happened to him.
He was in intensive care,
but he pulled out of it,
just kept working at it,
and that little old gal
was right by his side.
Well, when he got up and about,
she just confronted him.
"The badge or me."
Of course, he took the badge.
I think he lost a little
bit of himself then, hon.
He never told me about this.
Alex, it's awful hard
for Cordell to open up.
He don't wanna get hurt again,
and he don't wanna hurt nobody.
Kitty, kitty. I'm home.
Hi, kitty.
(cat meows)
How you doing?
Hey, kitty, you miss me?
Did you miss me today?
Yeah.
Old dad had a big
day, let me tell you that.
I'm gonna get me a beer,
and I'm gonna
get you a kitty beer.
You got your
kitty litter packed?
Two more days and
we'll be in paradise.
Whitney.
Bolton, what are you doing here?
Things have changed.
You got this Ranger's been
dogging you all day long.
He's onto you. But how?
But how? Doesn't
make any difference how.
(mews)
He died good,
didn't he? Let's ride.
(meows timidly)
Hands up, knees on the ground!
Nobody move! Back off, chump!
(screaming)
Get down! Hands
behind your heads!
Jewels in the bag, lady.
Jewels in the bag. Move!
(chattering)
The estimated take
was over $3 million.
The mayor's gonna have
me for lunch on this one.
Anything pan out
with that driver?
No. (cell phone rings)
He didn't show up for work
today. We checked his apartment.
He's gone.
Preston.
Yeah, he's here. It's for you.
It's a guard down
at juvenile hall.
Yeah?
Heard they tried
to take your boots.
I see you still got 'em.
I also heard you
saved a lawman's life.
Your dad would've
been real proud of you.
He wouldn't have been
proud of you and your friend
ripping off that store.
Things just got out of hand.
I'm sorry.
Come on, let's go.
Jimmy? Yo?
Where's Walker?
You wanna sit down?
No. Where is he?
You heard?
My father is turning
over in his grave.
Now I know that
Walker bailed Keith out.
Where'd they go after that?
I don't know. Maybe...
Maybe he drove him home?
(scoffs)
I just came from there.
Maisy? Yeah, where's Walker?
Hey, I know that guy.
A few months back
he and some friends
took apart a topless
bar at Bockman Lake.
Yeah, thanks.
I'm running known associates
on our prime suspect.
His name's Mitch Bolton.
We think this guy's
part of the gang
that killed your father.
Trivette, can I
see you a minute?
( suspenseful theme playing)
(printer humming)
( tender theme playing)
What did we come here for?
No particular reason.
Just thought I'd say
hello to your dad.
Well, we're still after the guys
that took you down, Logan,
but we'll get 'em.
You know that.
I guess you heard
about your son Keith
getting himself into a
little bit of a scrape, huh?
Well, I think he
learned his lesson.
He can't hear you.
He's dead.
It's too late. Doesn't
matter anymore.
It does matter, Keith,
and it's never too late.
I lost my parents when
I was a young boy,
but that doesn't stop
me from talking to 'em
and they're pretty
good listeners too.
I'll bet your dad's
a good listener,
and I'll bet he'd love
to hear from you.
What do I say?
Whatever comes from the heart.
( tender theme playing)
Hey, Dad.
I really screwed up.
Made a mess of things.
You're doing fine.
I didn't mean for
this to happen.
I didn't mean for a
lot of things to happen.
It feels funny talking
to you this way.
I wish...
I wish I could see you again...
Dad, because,
you know, I really...
I really miss you a lot.
I never thought I
would, all those fights,
but I always thought
you'd be there.
(sighs)
But I guess things don't work
out like we'd like all the time.
Why?
Why did it have to be you?
Why did you have to
go there and be killed?
I never got a chance
to say goodbye.
I never got a
chance to tell you...
I love you.
(crying)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(talking indistinctly)
MAN 1: Look at that.
Hey, welcome.
MAN 2: All right.
MAN 1: Hey, mama, how you doing?
What can I do
you for, little lady?
Name it. It's on the house.
I'm not thirsty.
I never knew a customer
to turn down a freebie.
Well, I'm looking for some
friends. Maybe you've seen 'em.
I hear this is their
second home.
Lady, I just pour drinks
and wash glasses.
Hey, look at this.
A female cop.
You know these guys?
Never seen 'em before.
Now why is it I
don't believe you?
You calling me a liar?
No, no, of course not.
Ow!
Now, I'm personally
offering $5000
for information leading
to the arrest of these men.
Oh, come on, boys, don't be shy.
My money spends just
as good as anyone's.
(yelling)
You're gonna be sorry
you ever came in here.
(man yells)
Oof!
Now you're really
gonna be sorry.
(men jeering)
(gunshot)
WALKER: Let her go.
Can't shoot an unarmed man.
I'll do more than that
if you don't let her go.
Why don't you just turn around
and leave while you still can?
You sound like a man huffing
up to do something real stupid.
Not as stupid as you coming
in here in the first place.
Why don't you show
me just how stupid I am?
Anyone else stupid?
( tense theme playing)
How did you know I was here?
Trivette noticed
his printer was on,
figured what you were up to.
Oh, thank God.
Dana, you never go into a
place like that without backup.
You should know
better than that.
I... I know. I... I'm sorry.
I thought I could handle it.
Well, now you know.
TRIVETTE (over radio): Walker?
Walker, come in. Are you there?
Yeah.
You wanna pick me up? We
got a meeting with Preston.
( suspenseful theme playing)
I got it.
MAN 1: Here you
go. MAN 2: Thanks.
Is one of them Eugene Whitney?
Oh, yeah.
Mueller's driver. Bought it
with a single shot to the head.
What about the other guy?
Manny Alberado. Same thing.
ME puts the death two days ago.
Bolton's thinning
out his shareholders.
I've got an idea,
but it's gonna take Burt
Mueller's cooperation.
Whitney too? He
was my first driver.
My God, why would
he do this to me?
Who knows?
Maybe all those years of
carrying other people's money.
He decided to take
a little for himself.
Yeah.
We've got a plan
to nail these guys,
but we'll need your help.
Yes, sir, you name it. Anything.
Well, the biggest run of
the month is tomorrow, right?
Yes, sir.
Tomorrow we pick up five banks,
the military base,
and the Dallas Arena.
We take $6 million to
the Federal Reserve.
And Whitney normally
makes that run,
which means Bolton
will know all about it.
Gentlemen, if anything
happens to that money,
I'm out of business.
It's that simple.
Nothing's gonna happen.
Trivette and I are gonna
make that run for you.
But after all the
money's loaded,
we're gonna switch it
to another armored car.
And Bolton will follow us
in the empty armored car.
TRIVETTE: So the
armored car with the money
is gonna take the back
roads to Fort Worth.
(sighs)
Well, you're the Texas Rangers.
Sounds to me like you
know what you're doing.
Well, we appreciate your
cooperation, Mr. Mueller.
(men laughing, chattering)
I'm gonna tell you
something, fellows.
We're gonna be in high cotton.
Huh? One more hit's all we got.
Hold it, boys. Change of plans.
The deal's off.
What do you mean?
Rangers. Texas, by God, Rangers.
That Ranger's been
a day behind all along.
Well, he's caught up.
Matter of fact, he's got
a little bit ahead now.
Him and his partner are
gonna dress up like guards
and drive the truck,
make the pickups,
then they're gonna switch
the money into a decoy
and send that to the depository.
That don't make any difference.
We'll still follow the vehicle
with the money, right?
No, sir.
It'll be driven by
cops too, you see.
And if I know this Walker
he'll have enough
firepower on it
to take out a small town.
Pfft. Ah.
That don't scare us.
Makes it more
entertaining, right?
Say, why'd you
have to kill Whitney?
He was a liability.
He was my friend.
You know, Walker had it nailed.
He said Whitney had hauled
somebody else's
money around for so long
it made him crazy.
Figured he had to
take some for himself.
Look how he wound up.
A tired old man in
a little stinking hovel
with an old scrawny cat.
Hell, he could've
been talking about me.
( dramatic theme playing)
(humming)
My mother always said
money was a burden.
She just never told
me it was this heavy.
BOLTON: Look at these pukes.
They really think
they're gonna pull this off.
(laughing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Last stop coming up.
Hey, how come you
always get to do the driving
and I always get
to do the lifting?
Because it was my plan.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(truck beeping)
We've got weights in
the other armored car
to make it look
like it's loaded.
I sure hope Bolton
goes for this.
Me too.
No, no. Wait, wait, wait.
Look how light it's riding.
Mueller was right on the money.
We're just gonna sit tight
and wait to pick them apples.
There she is, boys.
See how low it's riding
in the frame, huh?
Let's get to it.
Let's go. (engine starts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
TRIVETTE: Is that yellow
four-by still behind us?
He's there.
Oh.
Okay, listen up. He's
taking 40 to Wyant cut-off.
If he takes a right,
that means Old Forest
Road right into Fort Worth.
That ought to give us plenty
of time and room to move.
( tense theme playing)
Bludgeon to Cash and
Carry. Old Forest Road.
We'll take it down at mile six.
( tense theme playing)
BOLTON: All right, move out.
Get ready, Trivette.
Bludgeon to Cash and
Carry. Where are you?
MAN: Mile seven,
heading your way.
On target.
Pull off and lay low.
All right, mask up.
Make sure you got enough ammo.
( tense theme playing)
Here.
( tense theme playing)
Preston?
WALKER (over radio):
Preston, come in.
We're here, Walker.
It's going down. Old
Forest Road, mile six.
We're on our
way. Let's go, boys!
Hold on, Trivette.
Take out that car.
( dramatic theme playing)
(sirens wailing)
(gun clicks)
(sirens approaching)
All right, Peterson,
split up. Move!
(gunshots)
( ominous theme playing)
I'm glad you're here.
How many are there?
About four or five.
You two, fall back, fall back.
( tense theme playing)
(grunting)
( tense theme playing)
Ow!
(grunting)
Cuff him.
(bones crack) Aahh!
( dramatic theme playing)
OFFICER: I'll take him.
So, what tipped you off
that Mueller was involved?
Well, actually, Trivette
figured that one out.
Yeah, when Mueller told
Walker that Gibson called in sick
I checked and found out that
Gibson lives in Forth Worth,
but he works in Dallas,
which is a toll call,
but there was no phone
record of any calls that morning.
So Mueller faked
his own heart attack?
Yeah, well, he might've,
but we're not sure.
Here you go, Dana.
Oh, thanks, Keith.
Keith.
Come here. I wanna talk to you.
How you two getting along?
We're taking it
one day at a time.
At least he's talking to me.
He's opening up.
He's acting like
a brother again.
Thanks to you.
That's not the only thing.
Thanks for putting a
word in to my captain.
You saved my hide.
(chuckles)
Well, it was worth saving.
This potato salad is
wonderful. I want the recipe.
Actually, it's C.D.'s recipe.
He said it came over with
his family on the Mayflower.
(chuckles)
The Mayflower. Right, right.
(all laugh)
Look, I heard what
happened in jail,
so I was thinking I'd teach
you a basic self-defense move.
Oh, I don't think that that...
No, it's okay, it's all right,
because it never hurts to
be able to defend yourself.
I'm gonna teach you
something that Walker taught me.
It's called a single
reverse hip throw.
You ever heard of that?
Oh, no.
We gotta watch this. C.D.
Hit me right here.
I can't do that.
No, go ahead.
Give me a poke right here.
C.D.: Jimmy, what are you doing?
I'm teaching him a
single reverse hip throw
that Walker taught me.
I don't think that's a
good idea, Trivette.
I'm not gonna hurt him.
I knew this was
gonna happen, man.
You don't
understand. It's not...
I know this as well
as you do, Walker.
Just...
Jimmy... Big Dog, I
know what I'm doing.
Okay. Okay.
All right, we'll
go in slow motion
so he doesn't hurt himself.
Throw the punch.
Throw the punch.
He throws the punch.
Step across, grab his back.
Whoa! (others laugh)
What was that?
Well, that was the
double reverse hip throw.
My dad taught me that.
( comic theme playing)
Why didn't you tell me?
BOTH: We tried to tell you.
MAN: They did. They sure did.
(all laughing)
(chuckles)

"It's gonna be a midnight run."
It's midnight right now.
You know what's going on,
he's looting another facility.
They'll be here.
He says they'll be
here, they'll be here.
How long you guys
known each other?
DPS training.
We was a pair to draw to.
Me, the original
hell-raiser, and Cordell
with that quiet,
Cherokee attitude.
Gets real mad when he's pushed.
We put a Texas-sized
hurt on any bad guys
who refused to salute the
Rangers, God and country,
in that order.
(vehicle approaching)
Here they come.
Let's do it.
Let's go, Hanks.
Bet mine goes down first.
I'll bet you dinner.
You got it.

Damn. A big steak,

black-eyed peas.
All right, all right.
Those are ours. No,

Put 'em on.

See, now I'm late

(grunting)
Just like old times, Cordell.
You mean this is more fun
than working for the governor?
That was a rotten
thing you did to me.
Better you than me.
LOGAN: Nobody
in their right mind
would do this for
a living, Cordell,
unless...
it was in their blood.
Busting bad guys, it's more than
thinking we make a difference.
It's a religious experience.
At least I used
to tell Molly that,
but she'd just sit there
in that quiet way
of hers and say,
"Logan, you'd better get
yourself a nice, safe job
while you can still walk."
(chuckles)

Line up on the

Hey, kid, come on.
You ready for a

That's okay, Vernon. (chuckles)
Come on.
Now.

Come on, boys, move along!

WALKER: You're not thinking
of hanging it up, are you?
Amigo,
some people get
shot out of cannons,
some people climb mountains
to see what's on the other side,
but me, I'm a Texas
Ranger for life.
You might as was well face it.
Dana,
bless her heart.
She's put her life
on the same track.
But Keith, hmmm.
Can't seem to
get through to him.
The fishing trip didn't help?
(sighs)
I don't know
whether he hates
fishing or just hates me.
Ever since Molly died, I...
Well, he's a teenager,
Logan. What can you do?
Boy, howdy.
You know, raging

He got the whole package.

I don't know what happened.
I wasn't even speeding.
We'll let the judge
decide that. Take him in.
All right. OFFICER 1:
We combed the area...
OFFICER 2: Come on, son.
OFFICER 3: Come
to the station with us.
It's not my fault.
I didn't wanna ride with him.
Honest.
But damn it, Keith,
you were riding with him.
What the hell were you doing?
I was just a passenger.
I didn't have
anything to do with it.
Don't cop an

Or what?
W-what, you gonna ground me?
I'm sick of being treated
like I was 10 years old.
WOMAN (over radio):
in the downtown area...
(sighs)
(indistinct speech

MAN: Here, Jerry,
give you a hand.
You know, Keith, you
could have been killed.
(siren wailing)
Dad?
It's your brother again.
I got your call,
Walker. Is he okay?
Yeah, he's okay. He's
one lucky kid, though.
Are there any charges?
Against the driver.
Not against Keith
if he cooperates.
LOGAN: And while you're at it,
maybe you can figure
out what makes him tick,
'cause I can't.
( somber theme playing)
TRIVETTE: Good
morning, yeah. (hums)
You know what?
What?
That was something, man,
working with Logan
Reno last night.
Did you know
that his grandfather
was one of the
original Texas Rangers
that took down Bonnie and Clyde?
Yep.
Oh, you knew that.
Why would you break
up a partnership with him?
I didn't.
He went to work for the governor
as his personal bodyguard.
Oh.
That's how I wound up with you.
You're lucky to have me.
Pffft!
You know what? I
heard that it was you
that was supposed to be
the governor's bodyguard.
Yeah, he tried.
But I convinced him that Logan
was the best man for the job.
Heh! I don't think Logan's
ever forgiven me for that.
I wonder what it would be like
to be Logan Reno's son.
Heh! Well, maybe
he'll adopt you.
Let's see, James Reno.
It has a ring to it.
James Reno, Texas Ranger.
(chuckles)
(chuckles)
Hank, this looks interesting.
What you got?
Cordell, Trivette,
might have something
cooking here, boys.
What you got, pops?
"Pops"?
New business going down.
Perps wearing clown masks
using military precision.
Got some feedback on unsolves
from Houston, Tulsa
and Oklahoma City.
They match two recent
hits in the metroplex.
Yeah, these boys
know what they're doing.
Yeah, they pulled several
heists in each of the cities.
Yeah, which means
they'll hit again.
I hope you didn't get too soft
working for the governor, Logan.
Cordell,
I'm meaner and tougher
than you ever hoped to be
and I wanted to
get back into action
from the second you
railroaded me to Austin.
I didn't railroad you, Logan.
All I did was
convince the governor
of his great
qualities, that's all.
Sold me down the
river's what he did.
Trivette, you gotta watch him.
I used to consider
this guy like...
Like family.
(grunts)
Oh, that hurts, Logan.
That really hurts.
Ha! Only kidding.
(all laugh)
( melancholy theme playing)
MAN: Okay, I'll be right over.
We'll save you a seat inside.
All right, gentlemen, in
18 minutes we cash out.
Lock and load.
Listen, Cordell, I...
I lost my temper last
night and I shouldn't have,
but I honestly don't know
what to do about Keith.
Well, I'd just give him
a little space, Logan.
I'm sure he'll come around.
Well, I hope so. This Sunday,
Dana's gonna cook
up a roast, if you're free.
Hey, you can count me in.
All right.
( ominous theme playing)
All right, people, suit up.
Bludgeon to Backup,
we're going in.
(gun cocks)
(tires squealing)
Hey, what do you
think you're doing?
(people screaming)
Come on, lay down! Get down!
Move, move, get the money! Move!
Give me a hand!
(indistinct shouting)
Get that other
sack. Move. All right.
Stay down! Get down!
Lady, don't move!
MAN (over radio): All units, robbery
in progress, KDA Benefit and Concert.
Dallas P.D., this is
Texas Ranger Five,
we're three minutes
away and responding.
Roger that.
Logan, go to Tech Two.
Looks like we're back
in business, Cordell.
I'll catch you later at C.D.'s.
You'll catch us before
that. We're your backup.
Don't make a move
till we get there.
Well, come on, partner. I'll
flip you for the paperwork.
(gun cocks)
Quickly, people.
Move, move. Quickly.
Give me the money!
Come on.
All right, let's move, let's go.
(tires squealing)
Texas Rangers.
Drop your weapons.
Okay. Okay, you got us.
We'll go peacefully.
Any time, Backup.
Go! (tires squeal)
(grunting)
(grunting)
( somber theme playing)
Move!
Let's get outta here.
(gunshots)
(groaning)
How is he?
How is he?!
PARAMEDIC: The cashier and
the security guard are all right.
Ranger Hanks caught
one in the lower back.
It's hard to say how he'll do.
The license numbers
we got were stolen.
Dana.
I'm sorry.
(sobbing)
WALKER: Dana?
Come on, Dana. Come on.
( somber theme playing)
(inaudible dialogue)
WALKER: Logan Reno
was a Texas Ranger,
one of the finest to
ever wear the star.
His father was a Ranger,
as was his grandfather.
Logan loved his family,
maybe more than
they'll ever know.
And now he's with
his beloved Molly.
Logan lived by a code,
and he spoke the
truth as he saw it.
Something Logan used to
say rings more true today
than ever before.
A Ranger who's not
willing to die for justice
is not really a Ranger.
You're the best friend a
Ranger ever had, Logan,
and I'm gonna miss you.
CAPTAIN: Forward, pull.
Fire position. Move.
Ready, aim, fire.
(guns cock, gunshots)
Ready, aim, fire.
Ready, aim, fire.
Cease-fire.
Present halt.
(bagpipes play "Amazing Grace")
This flag is presented on
behalf of the state of Texas
in remembrance of the
faithful and honorable service
of your loved one.
( ominous theme playing)
(chattering)
How's Wade Hanks?
Well, they still got
him in intensive care.
He's gonna make it, though.
Whether he walks
again, that's another story.
C.D.: That's a damn
shame. TRIVETTE: Yeah.
You got any leads
on those shooters?
Well, we found the
van and the four-by-four
they used as backup,
abandoned, wiped clean.
Both of 'em stolen.
Yeah, and we found
eight shell casings.
Same m.o. as the other jobs.
You know, you hit one of those
suckers an inch above the heart,
he barely even flinched.
C.D.: Hmmm.
Bulletproof vest.
Yeah. So I put out a trace
of the police and
military supply houses.
That had to be
state-of-the-art to stop that load.
Well, it's a shame
Dana lost her dad.
Now she's gotta
raise her kid brother.
Yeah, that's gonna be tough.
Yeah, she's a good
person, though.
She can handle it.
I hope so.
(rock music playing over stereo)
(door closes)
(music stops)
Hey, don't mess with my music.
(music starts)
(music stops)
Put the ball away.
Get ready for school.
Who made you boss?
Hey, playtime is over, Keith.
Now, it's been a week.
We've gotta get
on with our lives.
So I miss another day of
chopping up frogs, so what?
Besides, they gave you time off.
That's the department's
idea, not mine.
You know I'd much
rather be working.
Yeah, well, if it's
good enough for you,
it's good enough for me.
Now give me the ball.
No, you are going to school.
No, you can't make me.
Get in that house.
You're not my mother.
Hey, you two, I can hear you
all the way down the street.
I cleaned out your
father's locker.
Thanks.
Aren't you supposed
to be in school?
I'm not going.
Oh, yes, you are.
Go in there and get ready.
Thanks, Walker.
How are you holding up?
I've been better.
What am I gonna do with him?
Well, he's been kicked
right in the gut again.
First your mom,
and now your dad.
It's gonna take
time for both of you.
I know. I know, but I'm a cop.
I'm not a mother or a father.
Well, I'll talk to him,
and don't forget, I'm
always here for you, okay?
You know, there's
something you could do.
What's that?
Use your influence.
Get them to let me
come back to work, now.
I don't think it's a good idea.
Oh, come on. You
think it's therapeutic
sitting around all day,
listening to the clock tick?
Reading sympathy cards and
watching the
funeral flowers wilt?
I need to get back
to work, Walker.
I'll see what I can do.
Thanks. Come on.
Hey.
Unh!
Okay, people, this is
not a drill. Suck floor.
Get the money. Get the money.
Give me the money.
Hand me the bag.
Put the money in the bag.
What are you looking at?
Do not look at me.
Do you understand?
Come on. Ándale, ándale!
Put the bags on
the counter. Now!
Stay down. Get down.
Let's see your hands.
Get the money. Go, go.
If anyone says anything
about you being late,
have them call me.
Look, um, you don't understand.
You're wrong, Keith.
I do understand.
When my parents were killed,
I felt just the same way you do.
I had a hard time
expressing my feelings too.
It's like I'm still numb.
I don't know what to feel.
I mean, I miss my dad, but...
He was the world's
greatest everything.
Marine, Ranger, bass fisherman.
You name it, he had the T-shirt.
Me, I'm the world's
worst everything.
C's in all my classes, didn't
make the football team.
I don't even like fishing.
And the last thing on earth
I wanna do is be a Ranger.
That's all he ever
talked about, though.
I never even had a choice.
Well, I knew your father
as well as I knew anyone.
All he did was brag about you.
He loved you very much.
Yeah, well, how come
he never told me that?
I guess he should've.
But now that he's gone,
you've gotta make
some smart choices,
and one of those choices
is staying in school.
What, we back to that now?
That's right, and I'm gonna
see that you stay in school.
MAN (on radio): Walker, come in.
Go ahead.
Yeah, they hit again.
( suspenseful theme playing)
How much was taken?
About... two hundred-fifty
thousand inside,
another 90 to 100 that
was being delivered outside
by the armored car.
Thank you.
What are you doing here?
Making a deposit. Why?
Come on, Dana.
Okay, I heard it on the scanner.
Look, I'm not gonna sit
around watching TV all day.
I need to get back to work.
Have you talked to Preston?
I just left you. Now go home.
You don't understand. I
have to be involved in this.
As soon as we get a lead, you'll
be the first one to know, okay?
No, I want in on it now.
Dana, you're too close to this.
You were my
father's best friend.
I still am.
Now go home.
Wish I could be more help,
but all I saw was three
guys in clown masks.
The next thing I remember
was him holding up two fingers,
and asking if I
could count to one.
What happened?
I'm sorry, Mr. Mueller.
We didn't have a prayer.
Who are you, sir?
Burt Mueller.
It's our company.
We got the security
and the armored trucks.
Well, Mr. Mueller,
I'm afraid one of your
guards has been killed.
Who was it?
Tom Housley.
Ohh... I should've got
out of the truck sooner.
Oh, my God.
Ah... Ahhhh!
Hey, hey, hey. (moaning)
Okay, okay, here we go.
Come on, in the
chair here. Okay.
There we go!
(coughs)
Looks like a heart attack.
Osheroff, get me
some oxygen and an IV.
Ugggghhhhh!
What hospital?
Memorial.
Memorial Hospital.
They're taking him in for tests.
Remind me to get a
physical next week.
You just had a physical.
Remind me to get another one.
Funny how life turns out.
Logan always dreamed of
Keith going into law enforcement,
but it wound up
being his daughter.
Think Keith will come around?
I sure hope so.
Look at this.
The point man
takes out the guard,
the two flankers cover
the back and side.
All the bagman has to
do is collect the money.
Not one wasted move.
Just like a precision
military operation.
Haven't been able to match that
exact m.o. with any other gang.
Looks like we got a
whole new wild bunch here.
Let's see what we got.
So far, they've collected
$50,000 from the supermarket,
70,000 from the
check cashing store,
100,000 from the concert
and 350,000 from the bank.
So they're climbing the ladder.
Each hit's topping the last.
The van and the four-by-four
seen outside the bank
were found abandoned.
Both are hot.
What about the military angle?
I generated a list
of dishonorable
dischargees in the area.
What about vets
that had a problem
with the military police?
And I accessed the Army
and the Marine Corp database,
so that's 30 names
that fit the profile.
(computer beeps)
Make that 26. Four
of them are doing time.
(phone rings)
Walker.
Thanks, Fowler.
The lab came up
with a clean print
off one of the shell casings,
and R & I came up with a hit.
Manny Alberado.
Manny Alberado.
Hello.
Dishonorably discharged
after Desert Storm.
Suspected of three
strong-arm robberies.
Fugitive warrant outstanding.
I think he fits the profile.
You got an address?
Nothing.
Well, I think our next
move is to go where military
and wanna-be
military types hang out.
Does that mean the Hunt Club?
Yep.
Nobody goes to the Hunt
Club without a SWAT escort.
We do.
Walker.
I know how hard
losing Logan must be,
so if there's anything I can do,
or even if you
just wanna talk...
I appreciate it.
( progressive rock-country
blend plays in background)
Manny Alberado.
Yeah, I remember him, vaguely.
Has he been in lately?
No, not for a couple of weeks.
You know where we can find him?
What do I look like,
his travel agent?
Are you still running those
illegal card games in the back?
Touch that and I'll
break your finger.
Well, you wanna go check?
Sure.
So are you winning, Manny?
Manny?
No way, man.
A lot of people tell
me I look like that guy,
but I'm not him.
Isn't that right, Jumbo?
Then you won't mind
coming downtown,
and answering some questions.
He's not going anywhere
until he finishes this hand.
Well, he was bluffing, anyway.
Auuugh!
Ha, ha!
Thank you very much.
Are you sure it was the Rangers?
I saw the badges.
Bartender recognized
one of them.
Walker's the name.
I gotta tell you, this dude
ain't nobody to mess with.
Teele's right, man. That Walker,
he's a legend around here.
What's your point, Ross?
We about got what
we came here for, right?
You know, maybe we
ought to fold our tent,
split the cash, let's get
the hell out of Dodge.
(gasping)
That just cost you 5
percent of your share, Ross.
Anybody else here concerned
about the Ranger, huh?
I didn't think so.
Hey, what's shaking, Hanks?
Hi. As well as can be expected.
Heard you nailed one of them.
Yeah, we nailed him,
but the judge let him out.
All we got was name,
rank and serial number.
(scoffs)
What the hell are
you doing here?
You ought to be out tracking
the rest of those scumsuckers.
Oh, just thought
we'd drop by and see
if there's anything
we can do for you.
Nothing. Nothing at all.
Not unless you could spare
a couple of healthy legs.
Hey, don't mind me.
I... I know I'm better
off than Logan.
I am gonna fight this thing,
until I'm standing on my feet,
and look the slime who
did this square in the eye.
And we're gonna
see that you do it, too.
I'm glad to see you're okay.
Oh, that makes two of us.
You ever see so much paperwork?
You'd think there was really
something the matter with me.
Heart attacks aren't
something to joke about there,
Mr. Mueller.
I know.
But it looks like I beat
this one before it beat me.
You ever see this guy
hanging around your company,
talking to your
guards or employees?
No, sir, I can't say as I have.
Could he have been the
one that hit your truck?
I told you, they were
wearing masks, and...
No, sorry, I have never
seen that guy before.
Tell me something. You
gentlemen really think
some of my people
are involved in this?
Well, we're not
ruling anything out.
Thanks.
( suspenseful theme playing)
( suspenseful theme swells)
(gunshots)
(women screaming)
Throw her in.
OFFICER: And the
chalk too, bring it.
They're our guys.
They changed
their pattern, though.
They used a limo
and a laundry truck.
How bad is it?
One dead, two wounded.
TRIVETTE: Yeah, they
took 600,000 in cash.
They knew to hit
when the vault was full.
So it's probably an inside job.
Yeah, I think so.
So we're checking
the credit union,
the armored-car company,
and the accounting firm.
Well, I just came from downtown.
The mayor wants to
put together a task force.
All city, state and county
law enforcement agencies,
and your captain wants you
two to head up the Rangers.
ALEX: The DA's office
has been working with
Rangers Walker and Trivette.
Now, they have developed
several lists of potential suspects,
but... these men
are on our A-list.
And they all fit the
ex-military profile,
and they're all known
to be in the area,
but nowhere to be found.
We know this sucker's involved.
We busted him on
an assault charge.
We got him downstairs.
Right now he's being
less than cooperative.
What about his known associates?
We're running them.
I'll have a list for
you this afternoon.
All right, what we got is,
every hit is bigger
than the last one.
Walker thinks that they're using
one robbery to
train for the next.
So if he's right,
then the next target
could exceed over
a million dollars.
The logical move would
be to research the firms
that have that kind
of cash on hand.
And stake them out.
Now we're talking about
a lot of manpower here.
Now, I don't know if we can
make that many officers available.
Have the mayor cut
you a bigger check.
I don't care if
it's a meter maid.
We need someone
peeking in a window,
every time a cash
drawer is opened.
I'll see what I can
do. Anything else?
Yeah, there is one thing.
We have reason to believe
that this is an inside job.
We're doing background checks
on all past and current employees.
That's good. Hopefully
that'll narrow it down some.
Okay, we got a
lot of work to do.
Let's get out
there and get busy.
( nervous theme playing)
I'll see you later inside.
You got it, Walker.
What's the matter, Dana?
Keith's gone.
Where? I don't know.
We had a fight, he stormed out
and said he wasn't coming back.
I'll see if I can find him.
Walker, it's my fault.
I'm driving us both crazy.
I... I can't stay home.
I gotta get back to work.
Hey, Bob?
You think you could
put Dana back on duty?
Well, you think
it's the best thing?
Yeah, I do.
Okay, you go back on patrol,
but you let Walker handle
this case. You understand me?
Yes, sir.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Okay.
( dramatic theme playing)
Prevent Security.
Hands up now! Get down!
Nobody move!
Come on.
Metro Three, we're at the
sports arena on a suspicious van.
Send us backup.
WOMAN: Rangers Two,
what's your position?
We're at Commerce and Elm.
Go to Tack Six.
Rangers Two, over.
MAN: We got a call
from Metro Officers at
Dallas Arena requesting backup.
Suspicious vehicle,
armored car on the scene.
We're on it.
Come on, go, go, go!
Backup, earn your keep.
Go, go, go.
Let's go. Quickly.
Come on. Bolton!
How you doing?
Hey, I got an officer down
north side of the sports arena.
Send an ambulance.
He shot his own man.
Yeah, these guys don't
leave any witnesses.
What did he yell?
Bolton?
Sounded like it.
Why don't you run a
check on every Bolton
that has a military background.
All right.
Walker, I got him.
"Mitch Bolton,
captain, Special Forces.
"Explosives specialist,
martial arts expert.
"Dishonorably discharged.
Suspected of
torturing prisoners."
That's a bad boy.
Hard to believe he was
ever on Special Forces.
Just like a bad cop.
I'll put this out on
a citywide bulletin.
We gotta find out who
the inside man is on this.
Why don't you take this
over to Sundance Security.
I'll talk to Mueller at Prevent.
No, sir, this is a bad hombre.
I never saw him before in
my life, and a fellow like this
could never get
mixed up with my outfit.
Who knows the
schedules of your runs
and the amounts
being transported?
Clete Gibson would know that.
Who's he?
My dispatcher.
Been with me 15 years.
I'd like to talk to him.
He called in sick this morning.
I'd like to talk to him anyway.
You have an address?
I do. As a matter of
fact, I'll go with you.
You meet Clete Gibson,
you'll know in a minute
he's not mixed
up in any of this.
Let's go.
You betcha.
I appreciate your
bringing me along here.
I think you're barking up
the wrong tree, though.
I've known this
fellow a long time.
He's almost like family to me.
Well, we'll see, Mr. Mueller.
I thought you said
he called in sick?
Well, he did.
You know, could be
he's at the doctor's.
He could be a hundred places.
Just because he's
not here, you know,
don't make him a criminal.
Is this supposed to be here?
No, sir, it's not.
You know, after 15 years,
you'd think you'd get to
know a fellow, wouldn't you?
I'll be damned.
This is Walker.
Contact Trivette.
Have him get everything he can
on a Prevent Security
employee named Clete Gibson.
You got that? Clete Gibson.
WALKER: That's
Gibson's car, all right.
His phone records show
he made three toll calls
to that house this morning.
Like he had something
real urgent on his mind.
Let's go find out.
It's Clete Gibson.
Wanna help me?
Got him? Okay.
He's booby trapped,
Trivette. What?
Hold him up.
I can't believe I was
so damned stupid.
What do you wanna do?
Well, when he goes
down, this place is going up,
so, let's run like
hell, on three.
On three? Ready?
One, two, three.
(ticking)
You okay?
Did you say two or three?
Three for you, two for me.
Oh, man.
Bolton led us right into a trap.
He wanted us to
find Clete Gibson.
So he kills Gibson
to keep him quiet.
Or to take suspicion away
from the real inside man.
You got any idea
who that might be?
Have you completed
your background check
on all the employees at
Sundance and Prevent Security?
Wait. One moment.
Did we not almost get our butts
blown off back over there?
Geez!
Should I take that as a no?
Looking good.
It's better than kicking
in the wall at home.
I've looked everywhere
for Keith. Has he called?
No. Walker, I am worried sick.
Well, I know what he's
going through, Dana.
When my folks were killed, I
rebelled just like he's doing.
Yeah, but what if
something happens to him?
Well, don't worry.
We'll find him.
Come on.
(laughing)
(as Beavis): We drank
up all the beer, man.
That sucks.
(as Butt-head):
We need a beer run.
(as Beavis): I'm busted.
All my money went on bail.
What am I gonna do?
(as Butt-head): Uh, put
it on my account, man.
You know that's funny.
Hey, Keith, you steer, man.
I'm gonna need both hands free.
I hear you're having
a 100%-off sale.
Michelle, grab me
some cigarettes.
Hey, how you doing?
Get out of the way.
You're taking a bear?
You gotta be kidding me.
Hey, hey, hey, put the phone
down. Put the phone down.
Hold it right there!
OFFICER 2: All
right, I got those two.
Come on, man.
Vernon, he's a cop.
He's not taking me down.
No!
Freeze!
Drop the knife!
What have you got?
We may have something
on that inside man
we've been looking for.
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Mitch Bolton.
He was suspected of
stealing military ordinance
and selling it to drug
dealers in Panama.
But nobody can
nail him for the scam
because he used a middle man.
You know who it is?
Not yet, but at
about the same time,
Eugene Whitney
applied for a passport
and took a little
trip to Panama too.
Interesting. Yep.
Whitney's neighbors
say he keeps to himself.
Doesn't live above his means.
Well, not yet,
but my guess is Bolton's
still controlling the money.
According to the schedule,
that's the last stop.
Well, now we'll follow him to
the Federal Reserve Depository,
then we'll call it a day.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(engine sputtering)
Damn.
I told Mueller this unit
needed a new fuel pump.
Just sit tight.
I'll check it out.
Rangers, damn.
Bludgeon to Backup.
Abort the mission.
Repeat. Abort the mission.
Aborted.
Just a loose spark plug wire.
I don't get it.
If there was ever a
time for a hit, this was it.
Bolton made us.
Hey, leave me alone,
man. I'm not bothering you.
What's your name?
Keith.
Keith Reno.
Where'd you get
them boots, Keith?
They belonged to my father.
I want 'em. Now.
Forget it.
Well, well, I'll
bet you could use
a black cup of coffee about now.
C.D., you're a mind reader.
Nope, nope, I
just read the signs
and your signs say you
haven't slept in a good while.
How about that?
It's been a while.
That's not good, Alex.
Well, working
with this task force
has not lightened
my caseload any,
and there's just
not enough hours
in the day to get it all done.
It's Cordell, isn't it?
I thought you
weren't a mind reader.
I don't know what
I'm doing wrong, C.D.
I mean, we are so close,
we're such good friends,
and when he needs a friend most
that's when he
pulls away from me.
Well,
sometimes a man just
has to keep to himself.
Why?
I mean, I know he's
hurting over Logan's death,
and every time I mention it he
clams up tighter than a drum.
Honey, a man's just got
to do what he's got to do.
No, he doesn't.
I'm there for him. I
mean, at least I wanna be.
Alex, let me tell you something.
One time Cordell was
engaged to this little girl
out in El Paso.
Pretty little gal.
Little redhead.
He was a young trooper.
Every time they were together,
Christmas, New Year's
Eve, Fourth of July.
They really loved each other.
He took a bullet one
day. Wasn't his fault.
You know, so many of
us are just gonna get shot
every year, and that's
what happened to him.
He was in intensive care,
but he pulled out of it,
just kept working at it,
and that little old gal
was right by his side.
Well, when he got up and about,
she just confronted him.
"The badge or me."
Of course, he took the badge.
I think he lost a little
bit of himself then, hon.
He never told me about this.
Alex, it's awful hard
for Cordell to open up.
He don't wanna get hurt again,
and he don't wanna hurt nobody.
Kitty, kitty. I'm home.
Hi, kitty.
(cat meows)
How you doing?
Hey, kitty, you miss me?
Did you miss me today?
Yeah.
Old dad had a big
day, let me tell you that.
I'm gonna get me a beer,
and I'm gonna
get you a kitty beer.
You got your
kitty litter packed?
Two more days and
we'll be in paradise.
Whitney.
Bolton, what are you doing here?
Things have changed.
You got this Ranger's been
dogging you all day long.
He's onto you. But how?
But how? Doesn't
make any difference how.
(mews)
He died good,
didn't he? Let's ride.
(meows timidly)
Hands up, knees on the ground!
Nobody move! Back off, chump!
(screaming)
Get down! Hands
behind your heads!
Jewels in the bag, lady.
Jewels in the bag. Move!
(chattering)
The estimated take
was over $3 million.
The mayor's gonna have
me for lunch on this one.
Anything pan out
with that driver?
No. (cell phone rings)
He didn't show up for work
today. We checked his apartment.
He's gone.
Preston.
Yeah, he's here. It's for you.
It's a guard down
at juvenile hall.
Yeah?
Heard they tried
to take your boots.
I see you still got 'em.
I also heard you
saved a lawman's life.
Your dad would've
been real proud of you.
He wouldn't have been
proud of you and your friend
ripping off that store.
Things just got out of hand.
I'm sorry.
Come on, let's go.
Jimmy? Yo?
Where's Walker?
You wanna sit down?
No. Where is he?
You heard?
My father is turning
over in his grave.
Now I know that
Walker bailed Keith out.
Where'd they go after that?
I don't know. Maybe...
Maybe he drove him home?
(scoffs)
I just came from there.
Maisy? Yeah, where's Walker?
Hey, I know that guy.
A few months back
he and some friends
took apart a topless
bar at Bockman Lake.
Yeah, thanks.
I'm running known associates
on our prime suspect.
His name's Mitch Bolton.
We think this guy's
part of the gang
that killed your father.
Trivette, can I
see you a minute?
( suspenseful theme playing)
(printer humming)
( tender theme playing)
What did we come here for?
No particular reason.
Just thought I'd say
hello to your dad.
Well, we're still after the guys
that took you down, Logan,
but we'll get 'em.
You know that.
I guess you heard
about your son Keith
getting himself into a
little bit of a scrape, huh?
Well, I think he
learned his lesson.
He can't hear you.
He's dead.
It's too late. Doesn't
matter anymore.
It does matter, Keith,
and it's never too late.
I lost my parents when
I was a young boy,
but that doesn't stop
me from talking to 'em
and they're pretty
good listeners too.
I'll bet your dad's
a good listener,
and I'll bet he'd love
to hear from you.
What do I say?
Whatever comes from the heart.
( tender theme playing)
Hey, Dad.
I really screwed up.
Made a mess of things.
You're doing fine.
I didn't mean for
this to happen.
I didn't mean for a
lot of things to happen.
It feels funny talking
to you this way.
I wish...
I wish I could see you again...
Dad, because,
you know, I really...
I really miss you a lot.
I never thought I
would, all those fights,
but I always thought
you'd be there.
(sighs)
But I guess things don't work
out like we'd like all the time.
Why?
Why did it have to be you?
Why did you have to
go there and be killed?
I never got a chance
to say goodbye.
I never got a
chance to tell you...
I love you.
(crying)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(talking indistinctly)
MAN 1: Look at that.
Hey, welcome.
MAN 2: All right.
MAN 1: Hey, mama, how you doing?
What can I do
you for, little lady?
Name it. It's on the house.
I'm not thirsty.
I never knew a customer
to turn down a freebie.
Well, I'm looking for some
friends. Maybe you've seen 'em.
I hear this is their
second home.
Lady, I just pour drinks
and wash glasses.
Hey, look at this.
A female cop.
You know these guys?
Never seen 'em before.
Now why is it I
don't believe you?
You calling me a liar?
No, no, of course not.
Ow!
Now, I'm personally
offering $5000
for information leading
to the arrest of these men.
Oh, come on, boys, don't be shy.
My money spends just
as good as anyone's.
(yelling)
You're gonna be sorry
you ever came in here.
(man yells)
Oof!
Now you're really
gonna be sorry.
(men jeering)
(gunshot)
WALKER: Let her go.
Can't shoot an unarmed man.
I'll do more than that
if you don't let her go.
Why don't you just turn around
and leave while you still can?
You sound like a man huffing
up to do something real stupid.
Not as stupid as you coming
in here in the first place.
Why don't you show
me just how stupid I am?
Anyone else stupid?
( tense theme playing)
How did you know I was here?
Trivette noticed
his printer was on,
figured what you were up to.
Oh, thank God.
Dana, you never go into a
place like that without backup.
You should know
better than that.
I... I know. I... I'm sorry.
I thought I could handle it.
Well, now you know.
TRIVETTE (over radio): Walker?
Walker, come in. Are you there?
Yeah.
You wanna pick me up? We
got a meeting with Preston.
( suspenseful theme playing)
I got it.
MAN 1: Here you
go. MAN 2: Thanks.
Is one of them Eugene Whitney?
Oh, yeah.
Mueller's driver. Bought it
with a single shot to the head.
What about the other guy?
Manny Alberado. Same thing.
ME puts the death two days ago.
Bolton's thinning
out his shareholders.
I've got an idea,
but it's gonna take Burt
Mueller's cooperation.
Whitney too? He
was my first driver.
My God, why would
he do this to me?
Who knows?
Maybe all those years of
carrying other people's money.
He decided to take
a little for himself.
Yeah.
We've got a plan
to nail these guys,
but we'll need your help.
Yes, sir, you name it. Anything.
Well, the biggest run of
the month is tomorrow, right?
Yes, sir.
Tomorrow we pick up five banks,
the military base,
and the Dallas Arena.
We take $6 million to
the Federal Reserve.
And Whitney normally
makes that run,
which means Bolton
will know all about it.
Gentlemen, if anything
happens to that money,
I'm out of business.
It's that simple.
Nothing's gonna happen.
Trivette and I are gonna
make that run for you.
But after all the
money's loaded,
we're gonna switch it
to another armored car.
And Bolton will follow us
in the empty armored car.
TRIVETTE: So the
armored car with the money
is gonna take the back
roads to Fort Worth.
(sighs)
Well, you're the Texas Rangers.
Sounds to me like you
know what you're doing.
Well, we appreciate your
cooperation, Mr. Mueller.
(men laughing, chattering)
I'm gonna tell you
something, fellows.
We're gonna be in high cotton.
Huh? One more hit's all we got.
Hold it, boys. Change of plans.
The deal's off.
What do you mean?
Rangers. Texas, by God, Rangers.
That Ranger's been
a day behind all along.
Well, he's caught up.
Matter of fact, he's got
a little bit ahead now.
Him and his partner are
gonna dress up like guards
and drive the truck,
make the pickups,
then they're gonna switch
the money into a decoy
and send that to the depository.
That don't make any difference.
We'll still follow the vehicle
with the money, right?
No, sir.
It'll be driven by
cops too, you see.
And if I know this Walker
he'll have enough
firepower on it
to take out a small town.
Pfft. Ah.
That don't scare us.
Makes it more
entertaining, right?
Say, why'd you
have to kill Whitney?
He was a liability.
He was my friend.
You know, Walker had it nailed.
He said Whitney had hauled
somebody else's
money around for so long
it made him crazy.
Figured he had to
take some for himself.
Look how he wound up.
A tired old man in
a little stinking hovel
with an old scrawny cat.
Hell, he could've
been talking about me.
( dramatic theme playing)
(humming)
My mother always said
money was a burden.
She just never told
me it was this heavy.
BOLTON: Look at these pukes.
They really think
they're gonna pull this off.
(laughing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Last stop coming up.
Hey, how come you
always get to do the driving
and I always get
to do the lifting?
Because it was my plan.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(truck beeping)
We've got weights in
the other armored car
to make it look
like it's loaded.
I sure hope Bolton
goes for this.
Me too.
No, no. Wait, wait, wait.
Look how light it's riding.
Mueller was right on the money.
We're just gonna sit tight
and wait to pick them apples.
There she is, boys.
See how low it's riding
in the frame, huh?
Let's get to it.
Let's go. (engine starts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
TRIVETTE: Is that yellow
four-by still behind us?
He's there.
Oh.
Okay, listen up. He's
taking 40 to Wyant cut-off.
If he takes a right,
that means Old Forest
Road right into Fort Worth.
That ought to give us plenty
of time and room to move.
( tense theme playing)
Bludgeon to Cash and
Carry. Old Forest Road.
We'll take it down at mile six.
( tense theme playing)
BOLTON: All right, move out.
Get ready, Trivette.
Bludgeon to Cash and
Carry. Where are you?
MAN: Mile seven,
heading your way.
On target.
Pull off and lay low.
All right, mask up.
Make sure you got enough ammo.
( tense theme playing)
Here.
( tense theme playing)
Preston?
WALKER (over radio):
Preston, come in.
We're here, Walker.
It's going down. Old
Forest Road, mile six.
We're on our
way. Let's go, boys!
Hold on, Trivette.
Take out that car.
( dramatic theme playing)
(sirens wailing)
(gun clicks)
(sirens approaching)
All right, Peterson,
split up. Move!
(gunshots)
( ominous theme playing)
I'm glad you're here.
How many are there?
About four or five.
You two, fall back, fall back.
( tense theme playing)
(grunting)
( tense theme playing)
Ow!
(grunting)
Cuff him.
(bones crack) Aahh!
( dramatic theme playing)
OFFICER: I'll take him.
So, what tipped you off
that Mueller was involved?
Well, actually, Trivette
figured that one out.
Yeah, when Mueller told
Walker that Gibson called in sick
I checked and found out that
Gibson lives in Forth Worth,
but he works in Dallas,
which is a toll call,
but there was no phone
record of any calls that morning.
So Mueller faked
his own heart attack?
Yeah, well, he might've,
but we're not sure.
Here you go, Dana.
Oh, thanks, Keith.
Keith.
Come here. I wanna talk to you.
How you two getting along?
We're taking it
one day at a time.
At least he's talking to me.
He's opening up.
He's acting like
a brother again.
Thanks to you.
That's not the only thing.
Thanks for putting a
word in to my captain.
You saved my hide.
(chuckles)
Well, it was worth saving.
This potato salad is
wonderful. I want the recipe.
Actually, it's C.D.'s recipe.
He said it came over with
his family on the Mayflower.
(chuckles)
The Mayflower. Right, right.
(all laugh)
Look, I heard what
happened in jail,
so I was thinking I'd teach
you a basic self-defense move.
Oh, I don't think that that...
No, it's okay, it's all right,
because it never hurts to
be able to defend yourself.
I'm gonna teach you
something that Walker taught me.
It's called a single
reverse hip throw.
You ever heard of that?
Oh, no.
We gotta watch this. C.D.
Hit me right here.
I can't do that.
No, go ahead.
Give me a poke right here.
C.D.: Jimmy, what are you doing?
I'm teaching him a
single reverse hip throw
that Walker taught me.
I don't think that's a
good idea, Trivette.
I'm not gonna hurt him.
I knew this was
gonna happen, man.
You don't
understand. It's not...
I know this as well
as you do, Walker.
Just...
Jimmy... Big Dog, I
know what I'm doing.
Okay. Okay.
All right, we'll
go in slow motion
so he doesn't hurt himself.
Throw the punch.
Throw the punch.
He throws the punch.
Step across, grab his back.
Whoa! (others laugh)
What was that?
Well, that was the
double reverse hip throw.
My dad taught me that.
( comic theme playing)
Why didn't you tell me?
BOTH: We tried to tell you.
MAN: They did. They sure did.
(all laughing)
(chuckles)
