1
00:00:36,121 --> 00:00:39,040
Narrator: And so, we come to
perhaps the bloodiest chapter

2
00:00:39,124 --> 00:00:42,544
in the long and violent
history of the midwest region.

3
00:00:42,836 --> 00:00:46,464
And here I'm speaking of
luverne, Minnesota, 1979,

4
00:00:46,756 --> 00:00:48,925
commonly referred
to by laypeople

5
00:00:49,009 --> 00:00:51,469
as the massacre at sioux falls.

6
00:00:51,928 --> 00:00:53,430
Readers will know
that I've chosen

7
00:00:53,513 --> 00:00:55,682
to file this case
as a Minnesota crime

8
00:00:55,932 --> 00:00:57,183
even though most of the murders

9
00:00:57,267 --> 00:00:59,686
took place in north
and then south Dakota.

10
00:00:59,894 --> 00:01:03,732
But I believe the key to understanding
this complex and nuanced crime

11
00:01:03,815 --> 00:01:07,319
is to look at the butcher and
small-town beautician at its center.

12
00:01:07,402 --> 00:01:09,279
Ed and Peggy blumquist

13
00:01:09,487 --> 00:01:14,618
were just 29 years old on the
night their lives changed forever.

14
00:02:50,463 --> 00:02:52,799
Narrator: Not much is known
about ohanzee dent.

15
00:02:57,137 --> 00:02:58,638
We have no birth certificate,

16
00:03:00,140 --> 00:03:02,434
no tribal or family history.

17
00:03:04,227 --> 00:03:06,146
He was the gerhardts' man,

18
00:03:07,313 --> 00:03:09,441
or he had been, until...

19
00:03:09,524 --> 00:03:11,735
Dodd: Jesus Christ, ya mongrel.

20
00:03:12,610 --> 00:03:15,822
Just shoot these two and
get me to a goddamn hospital.

21
00:04:09,793 --> 00:04:11,187
Cheney: So, this is what
all the fuss is about?

22
00:04:11,211 --> 00:04:12,212
Policewoman: Yes, sir.

23
00:04:12,462 --> 00:04:14,214
Blumquist, Mr. and Mrs.

24
00:04:14,589 --> 00:04:17,383
Took flight from
Minnesota two days past.

25
00:04:18,802 --> 00:04:20,053
They don't look like much.

26
00:04:21,846 --> 00:04:23,181
You don't look like much.

27
00:04:24,682 --> 00:04:25,934
We're realized.

28
00:04:26,893 --> 00:04:27,977
What? What's she sayin'?

29
00:04:28,311 --> 00:04:29,437
Says she realized somethin'.

30
00:04:29,938 --> 00:04:30,939
Ch en ey: Realized what?

31
00:04:31,356 --> 00:04:32,666
That you're up
a tree without a paddle?

32
00:04:32,690 --> 00:04:34,400
It's a tri-state deal here, j.C.

33
00:04:34,609 --> 00:04:35,985
We're talkin' bodies for miles.

34
00:04:36,236 --> 00:04:38,321
Not just some dead
hooligan in a cabin.

35
00:04:38,780 --> 00:04:39,840
It's a goddamn shootin' war.

36
00:04:39,864 --> 00:04:41,366
Yeah, I know. We got 'em, too.

37
00:04:41,533 --> 00:04:42,575
Organized crime?

38
00:04:43,076 --> 00:04:45,537
What the heck are you doing
here with... with that one?

39
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:48,081
The eldest gerhardt boy, dodd?

40
00:04:48,414 --> 00:04:50,625
He came to the house after Peggy

41
00:04:50,708 --> 00:04:53,086
and she knocked him on his ass.

42
00:04:54,420 --> 00:04:55,797
So, I thought

43
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,259
maybe trade him back to the
family and make a deal for us to go.

44
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:00,802
A fresh start.

45
00:05:01,553 --> 00:05:02,637
We're on a journey.

46
00:05:03,263 --> 00:05:04,347
Can we just...

47
00:05:05,807 --> 00:05:08,685
While we're skippin'
down memory Lane, here,

48
00:05:08,768 --> 00:05:11,312
it's worth notin' that the
gerhardt Indian is out there free,

49
00:05:11,396 --> 00:05:12,939
probably callin'
for reinforcements.

50
00:05:13,022 --> 00:05:14,691
So, if I were us...

51
00:05:14,774 --> 00:05:15,774
I stabbed him.

52
00:05:15,817 --> 00:05:16,857
I'd get them outta here.

53
00:05:16,901 --> 00:05:19,153
Or cover 'em in bacon
and leave 'em for the dogs.

54
00:05:19,237 --> 00:05:20,238
I stabbed him!

55
00:05:20,405 --> 00:05:21,406
The Indian.

56
00:05:21,948 --> 00:05:24,868
He wanted a haircut and I
stabbed him with the scissors.

57
00:05:27,036 --> 00:05:28,037
In the back.

58
00:05:30,498 --> 00:05:32,792
Hank: Boy, she makes us
look like the gang

59
00:05:32,876 --> 00:05:34,794
that can't shoot straight,
doesn't she?

60
00:05:35,128 --> 00:05:36,129
Our beautician.

61
00:05:36,671 --> 00:05:38,548
It's worth mentionin', you know,

62
00:05:38,631 --> 00:05:40,258
in the spirit
of full disclosure,

63
00:05:43,261 --> 00:05:44,262
my plan,

64
00:05:44,971 --> 00:05:45,972
it worked.

65
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:47,891
I made a deal for dodd.

66
00:05:47,974 --> 00:05:49,434
Hank: With, what, the gerhardts?

67
00:05:49,767 --> 00:05:51,811
No, they wouldn't.

68
00:05:51,895 --> 00:05:53,646
They said they
weren't interested.

69
00:05:54,647 --> 00:05:56,357
Well, that's what they told me.

70
00:05:57,483 --> 00:05:58,985
So, lcahed Kansas City.

71
00:05:59,068 --> 00:06:00,069
You did what?

72
00:06:00,153 --> 00:06:02,447
I spoke to this fella, milligan,

73
00:06:02,530 --> 00:06:03,990
and he said he'd protect us

74
00:06:04,449 --> 00:06:05,617
if we gave him dodd.

75
00:06:06,117 --> 00:06:08,494
So, have a meeting
set at 8:00 am.

76
00:06:08,578 --> 00:06:09,579
Hank: Where?

77
00:06:10,663 --> 00:06:11,664
Sioux falls.

78
00:06:11,915 --> 00:06:12,999
They're comin' here?

79
00:06:13,875 --> 00:06:15,585
Yes, sir. To the motor motel.

80
00:06:16,753 --> 00:06:19,593
We need to get these two into custody
now. Where's the nearest precinct?

81
00:06:38,066 --> 00:06:39,067
Tell 'em.

82
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,071
We can't vouch for the safety
of the precinct, is the thing.

83
00:06:43,571 --> 00:06:45,549
What kinda chicken shit
outfit you runnin' here, j.C.?

84
00:06:45,573 --> 00:06:46,574
Zip it.

85
00:06:46,699 --> 00:06:47,867
Idontdflve to your backyard

86
00:06:47,951 --> 00:06:49,661
and talk about
how all your heads are flat.

87
00:06:49,744 --> 00:06:51,784
What does that mean, you
can't vouch for the safety?

88
00:06:51,829 --> 00:06:53,206
We got graft, I'm sayin'.

89
00:06:53,623 --> 00:06:54,874
Money changes hands.

90
00:06:55,541 --> 00:06:57,421
Used to be gerhardt money,
now it's Kansas City.

91
00:06:58,169 --> 00:06:59,545
Corruption.
Policewoman: Allegedly.

92
00:07:00,380 --> 00:07:01,381
But...

93
00:07:01,464 --> 00:07:03,007
Well, you bring
these two into custody

94
00:07:03,091 --> 00:07:05,402
can't guarantee they won't
hear about it down in Kansas City.

95
00:07:05,426 --> 00:07:08,054
And you know they'll send,
like, an army.

96
00:07:08,179 --> 00:07:09,681
So, we take 'em north,

97
00:07:09,764 --> 00:07:11,891
some place where people
got their heads on straight.

98
00:07:12,058 --> 00:07:13,059
My state.

99
00:07:13,476 --> 00:07:14,560
My prisoners.

100
00:07:15,228 --> 00:07:17,397
Well, wherever we're takin'
'em, we need to go soon.

101
00:07:17,730 --> 00:07:19,667
I've been under siege once
this week. Not really interested...

102
00:07:19,691 --> 00:07:20,733
There's a third way.

103
00:07:21,317 --> 00:07:22,402
We wire the redhead,

104
00:07:23,403 --> 00:07:25,655
send him into the meetin'
with this milligan fella,

105
00:07:25,738 --> 00:07:27,240
get the conspiracy on tape.

106
00:07:27,907 --> 00:07:29,627
If we're lucky,
we bust the whole operation.

107
00:07:33,454 --> 00:07:34,455
Son, I'm lookin' around

108
00:07:34,539 --> 00:07:36,499
and you're outranked here
nine ways to Sunday.

109
00:07:38,751 --> 00:07:40,753
You can't... these two?
You saw 'em.

110
00:07:41,212 --> 00:07:43,047
Well, they're doin'
better than us, so far.

111
00:07:44,424 --> 00:07:45,842
Yeah, okay, through blind luck.

112
00:07:45,925 --> 00:07:47,736
They're not up to...
Believe me. Wearin' a wire?

113
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,400
They'll make the effort if they
think it'll keep 'em off death row.

114
00:07:50,638 --> 00:07:52,919
Look, I've met this milligan
fella. It's not amateur hour.

115
00:07:52,974 --> 00:07:54,017
He gets one whiff

116
00:07:54,100 --> 00:07:56,340
and Ed's dead before the
time it takes to blow your nose.

117
00:07:56,477 --> 00:07:59,022
Thought you were Gary Cooper.

118
00:07:59,105 --> 00:08:00,732
Turns out you're Betty laplage.

119
00:08:00,940 --> 00:08:02,220
Say that again. All right, look.

120
00:08:02,984 --> 00:08:05,111
You brought your
shit to town, son.

121
00:08:05,528 --> 00:08:06,863
I'm just tryin' to clean it up.

122
00:08:07,238 --> 00:08:09,699
And I say we
squeeze the lemons we got

123
00:08:09,782 --> 00:08:12,243
and use the juice to
catch these big fish.

124
00:08:12,827 --> 00:08:14,037
So, get with the program.

125
00:08:22,462 --> 00:08:23,463
Lou: Kid.

126
00:08:23,921 --> 00:08:25,965
Listen to me, they're gonna
offer you a deal, okay?

127
00:08:26,049 --> 00:08:27,050
Son. Don't take it.

128
00:08:27,133 --> 00:08:28,944
Tell 'em you want a lawyer.
Make them take you into custody.

129
00:08:28,968 --> 00:08:30,887
What do you care?
I'm responsible for you.

130
00:08:30,970 --> 00:08:33,449
We don't need your conscience.
You're half the reason we're in this mess!

131
00:08:33,473 --> 00:08:34,575
Look, you're not ready for this.

132
00:08:34,599 --> 00:08:35,641
Trooper, not another word.

133
00:08:35,725 --> 00:08:37,185
You are not up to the task.

134
00:08:37,268 --> 00:08:39,062
This is a war. Don't you get it?

135
00:08:39,145 --> 00:08:41,457
I'm responsible for you and
you're breathing because of me.

136
00:08:41,481 --> 00:08:42,681
I can't just leave you behind.

137
00:08:44,233 --> 00:08:45,359
You're turfed.

138
00:08:45,693 --> 00:08:47,779
Now, pack your shit
and get outta here,

139
00:08:47,862 --> 00:08:50,656
or my boys are gonna show you
what a south Dakota necktie feels like.

140
00:08:51,991 --> 00:08:53,034
I'm goin'.

141
00:08:53,826 --> 00:08:54,869
You've been lucky.

142
00:08:55,453 --> 00:08:56,662
That luck's gonna run out.

143
00:08:57,663 --> 00:08:58,831
This is on you!

144
00:09:07,006 --> 00:09:08,466
That went wrong in a hurry.

145
00:09:09,258 --> 00:09:10,259
You comin'?

146
00:09:15,431 --> 00:09:17,683
Good to have at least one
grownup here, don't you think?

147
00:09:20,686 --> 00:09:21,854
I'm gonna call my boss.

148
00:09:22,438 --> 00:09:25,358
See if he can stop this
madness on a bureaucratic level.

149
00:09:26,567 --> 00:09:27,693
Worth a shot.

150
00:09:29,237 --> 00:09:30,717
This thing's
officially outta control.

151
00:09:47,130 --> 00:09:50,341
You two are in the shit
just about past your eyes.

152
00:09:54,387 --> 00:09:55,471
Yeah.

153
00:09:57,348 --> 00:09:58,891
But there's a rope in my hand.

154
00:10:01,435 --> 00:10:02,562
Okay.

155
00:10:02,645 --> 00:10:03,688
Do you want the rope?

156
00:10:03,938 --> 00:10:06,357
Yeah, we'll take all
the help we can get.

157
00:10:07,191 --> 00:10:08,276
Cheney: Good.

158
00:10:09,068 --> 00:10:11,445
Gonna let you have your
meeting with Kansas City.

159
00:10:11,988 --> 00:10:13,281
Gonna put a wire on you.

160
00:10:16,117 --> 00:10:17,118
What's that?

161
00:10:17,201 --> 00:10:18,303
Cheney: A recordin' device, son.

162
00:10:18,327 --> 00:10:19,328
Are you stupid?

163
00:10:21,372 --> 00:10:24,709
Look, you get these Kansas City
boys to impugn themselves on tape,

164
00:10:25,668 --> 00:10:29,130
and I'll talk to the da. About
pleadin' you out on lesser charges.

165
00:10:34,010 --> 00:10:35,511
Well, I want it in writin'.

166
00:10:40,057 --> 00:10:44,145
Narrator: Meanwhile, at the crossroads
separating Minnesota from south Dakota,

167
00:10:44,770 --> 00:10:47,315
a different kind of betrayal
was taking place.

168
00:10:47,398 --> 00:10:49,483
Yes, sir, I do think
that sounds strange.

169
00:10:49,775 --> 00:10:53,529
Mike milligan, the low-level
enforcer for the Kansas City mafia,

170
00:10:53,613 --> 00:10:55,323
was playing a dangerous game.

171
00:10:55,865 --> 00:10:58,659
Just hours earlier, he had
been targeted for execution,

172
00:10:58,743 --> 00:11:01,662
but he had turned the tables
on his killers.

173
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,335
Mike: Well,
they never showed up.

174
00:11:07,501 --> 00:11:09,545
Narrator: And now,
in a desperate gambit...

175
00:11:09,629 --> 00:11:12,423
I'm on my way, me and my man,

176
00:11:13,257 --> 00:11:15,218
to collect
the eldest gerhardt male.

177
00:11:15,384 --> 00:11:19,805
He sought to rout the
gerhardt family once and for all.

178
00:11:21,265 --> 00:11:22,725
That's right. Dodd gerhardt.

179
00:11:25,144 --> 00:11:26,229
That's what I was thinking.

180
00:11:26,437 --> 00:11:27,437
Grab him up,

181
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:28,790
see if we can't end
things this minute,

182
00:11:28,814 --> 00:11:30,983
tonight, with a trade or ambush.

183
00:11:36,364 --> 00:11:37,490
Well, thank you, sir.

184
00:11:38,449 --> 00:11:39,575
I won't let you down.

185
00:13:15,504 --> 00:13:16,505
Finished.

186
00:13:18,090 --> 00:13:19,216
That's a beauty.

187
00:13:19,759 --> 00:13:21,093
Go show your mom.

188
00:13:27,433 --> 00:13:31,937
Sylvia's mother
says Sylvia's hurrying

189
00:13:32,271 --> 00:13:35,858
she's catching the
nine 'o' clock train.

190
00:13:35,941 --> 00:13:36,942
Mommy?

191
00:13:38,277 --> 00:13:42,740
Sylvia's mother says,
"take your umbrella,

192
00:13:43,699 --> 00:13:48,120
"'cause sylvie
it's starting to rain."

193
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:54,293
And Sylvia's mother says,
"thank you for calling

194
00:13:54,627 --> 00:13:59,131
"and sir won't you
come back again?"

195
00:14:00,466 --> 00:14:03,719
And the operator says,

196
00:14:03,803 --> 00:14:10,309
"forty cents more,
for the next three minutes."

197
00:14:10,935 --> 00:14:14,605
Please Mrs. Avery

198
00:14:14,688 --> 00:14:18,567
I've just got to talk to her

199
00:14:18,651 --> 00:14:21,987
I'll only keep her a while

200
00:14:23,614 --> 00:14:26,534
please Mrs. Avery

201
00:14:26,617 --> 00:14:30,496
I just want to tell her goodbye.

202
00:14:33,666 --> 00:14:36,752
Tell her goodbye

203
00:16:09,887 --> 00:16:11,096
Clerk's dead inside.

204
00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:12,431
Car keys are gone,

205
00:16:12,515 --> 00:16:15,195
looks like there's a red eldorado
missin' from the parkin' lot here,

206
00:16:15,226 --> 00:16:16,369
so, you should put out an apb.

207
00:16:16,393 --> 00:16:18,646
Sir, I'm supposed
to escort you outta state.

208
00:16:20,731 --> 00:16:22,066
No, son,

209
00:16:22,149 --> 00:16:23,376
this fella that
killed the clerk,

210
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,695
he is wanted in conjunction with a
double-digit number of homicides.

211
00:16:28,447 --> 00:16:30,616
Yeah, I don't know about that.

212
00:16:31,242 --> 00:16:33,285
But captain Cheney's
real scary, so...

213
00:16:33,786 --> 00:16:35,871
I'm gonna have to ask you
to get in your prowler

214
00:16:35,996 --> 00:16:37,831
and I'm gonna follow you
to the state line.

215
00:16:54,807 --> 00:16:56,600
Man: Car nine, come in. Over.

216
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:58,644
Go for schmidt.

217
00:16:59,311 --> 00:17:03,065
I got a Minnesota state cop on
the line lookin' for sheriff Larsson.

218
00:17:05,025 --> 00:17:06,277
Okay. Put him through.

219
00:17:08,112 --> 00:17:09,947
Lou: Listen,
he's in a red eldorado.

220
00:17:10,823 --> 00:17:11,907
Who's that?

221
00:17:12,616 --> 00:17:13,616
The Indian.

222
00:17:13,659 --> 00:17:14,702
Shot the clerk

223
00:17:14,785 --> 00:17:16,825
at the convenience store,
the one who called him in.

224
00:17:17,496 --> 00:17:19,099
Looks like our man
patched up his scissor wound

225
00:17:19,123 --> 00:17:20,666
and took the clerk's car.

226
00:17:24,169 --> 00:17:25,546
Yeah, kid, it's me.

227
00:17:27,214 --> 00:17:29,174
We're headed... what is it?

228
00:17:29,425 --> 00:17:30,509
The motor motel.

229
00:17:30,593 --> 00:17:32,511
We're headed to the motor motel.

230
00:17:32,636 --> 00:17:35,097
The plan is to
ditch the prowlers

231
00:17:35,180 --> 00:17:38,559
and then hole up for the
night under a low profile.

232
00:17:39,476 --> 00:17:41,687
And then, prep ed for the sting.

233
00:17:41,937 --> 00:17:42,938
Listen, you need to...

234
00:17:43,355 --> 00:17:45,065
I gotta bad feelin'
here and they're...

235
00:17:45,774 --> 00:17:47,067
I'm bein' run outta town.

236
00:17:47,985 --> 00:17:49,403
But you need to
watch yourselves.

237
00:17:49,737 --> 00:17:50,779
This thing ain't over.

238
00:17:51,030 --> 00:17:52,430
Policeman: Here,
give me that thing.

239
00:17:53,616 --> 00:17:54,700
Listen, trooper,

240
00:17:54,783 --> 00:17:56,994
we appreciate your giddy up
on this this thing,

241
00:17:57,077 --> 00:17:59,079
but we're not fresh
off the boat, here.

242
00:17:59,788 --> 00:18:01,040
If these fellas wanna tussle

243
00:18:01,373 --> 00:18:02,601
they're gonna find
out a thing or two

244
00:18:02,625 --> 00:18:04,335
about what a Dakota man can do.

245
00:18:04,877 --> 00:18:05,878
Yeah...

246
00:18:05,961 --> 00:18:08,631
Take a seat on the bench,
is what I'm sayin', junior.

247
00:18:08,714 --> 00:18:10,883
We'll handle it from here.
Over and out.

248
00:18:32,655 --> 00:18:35,741
Policeman: Unload the prisoners,
and ditch the prowlers around back.

249
00:18:37,785 --> 00:18:39,745
Hank: Hey, captain?
Talk to you for a second?

250
00:18:40,245 --> 00:18:41,497
Your man was outta line.

251
00:18:42,247 --> 00:18:43,624
Yes, sir. Yeah. He...

252
00:18:43,749 --> 00:18:44,958
He was havin' a feelin'.

253
00:18:45,584 --> 00:18:46,710
This mess has got us...

254
00:18:46,794 --> 00:18:48,355
Cheney: You Minnesota
boys don't got much

255
00:18:48,379 --> 00:18:49,838
in the way a backbone,
now do you?

256
00:18:52,424 --> 00:18:53,842
Well, now, I wouldn't say that.

257
00:18:54,677 --> 00:18:56,720
Just like to
thinkthings through.

258
00:18:58,722 --> 00:18:59,807
Army?

259
00:19:00,724 --> 00:19:01,934
Yes, sir.

260
00:19:03,268 --> 00:19:05,229
Hank: Liberated France
in the great war.

261
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:07,481
Not singlehandedly,

262
00:19:07,564 --> 00:19:09,668
but I like to think they couldn't
have done it without me.

263
00:19:09,692 --> 00:19:12,236
Well, then you know it's the
generals that do the thinkin'

264
00:19:12,945 --> 00:19:15,364
and everybody else
just says "how high?"

265
00:19:17,324 --> 00:19:19,326
Not gonna debate
the merits of top-down

266
00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:20,953
decision makin'
with you, captain,

267
00:19:22,371 --> 00:19:25,791
except to say, I had
a lieutenant in the war

268
00:19:26,709 --> 00:19:30,170
and he told eisenhower
to go to hell once,

269
00:19:30,254 --> 00:19:32,798
on account of his orders
would have got us all killed.

270
00:19:33,924 --> 00:19:36,677
I send that man
a card every Christmas,

271
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:38,762
'cause I can.

272
00:19:41,140 --> 00:19:42,474
Stay or go.

273
00:19:43,434 --> 00:19:44,601
Makes no difference to me.

274
00:19:45,602 --> 00:19:48,689
But tomorrow, I'm takin'
the fight to the enemy.

275
00:20:08,041 --> 00:20:09,334
Tell Simone to come see me.

276
00:20:09,543 --> 00:20:10,919
I wanna apologize for yesterday.

277
00:20:14,798 --> 00:20:16,425
She left in a hurry

278
00:20:17,217 --> 00:20:18,302
when you were took.

279
00:20:19,970 --> 00:20:21,346
Don't think she's back yet.

280
00:20:25,142 --> 00:20:27,269
Sorry, Mrs., but...

281
00:20:28,145 --> 00:20:29,938
What? What is it?

282
00:20:30,898 --> 00:20:31,940
Ifsforyourson, ma'am.

283
00:20:32,357 --> 00:20:34,359
Supposed to talk
to him directly.

284
00:20:35,444 --> 00:20:36,445
It's okay.

285
00:20:36,737 --> 00:20:37,821
We'll go into the barn.

286
00:20:39,531 --> 00:20:40,574
No secrets here.

287
00:20:44,203 --> 00:20:45,563
Well, what is it, kid?
Spit it out.

288
00:20:46,789 --> 00:20:47,873
Your Indian...

289
00:20:48,373 --> 00:20:49,917
He's on the phone. Hanzee?

290
00:20:52,044 --> 00:20:53,086
Says he found dodd.

291
00:20:58,717 --> 00:20:59,718
Is he alive?

292
00:21:00,052 --> 00:21:01,053
Yes, ma'am.

293
00:21:01,762 --> 00:21:03,180
They got him,
but he's breathin'.

294
00:21:05,974 --> 00:21:07,017
Who's got him?

295
00:21:09,228 --> 00:21:12,981
Narrator: Historians of the region
have long debated the next two words

296
00:21:13,065 --> 00:21:15,442
spoken by
the gerhardts' native man.

297
00:21:16,068 --> 00:21:19,863
When, exactly, did he decide to
betray the rest of his employers?

298
00:21:20,197 --> 00:21:23,492
Yes, he had executed
dodd gerhardt in cold blood,

299
00:21:23,575 --> 00:21:26,411
but at what point did he
decide to finish the job?

300
00:21:31,250 --> 00:21:32,376
Was it here?

301
00:21:33,961 --> 00:21:35,087
Or maybe earlier.

302
00:21:35,337 --> 00:21:37,097
Bear: You gotta do is
be straight with us.

303
00:21:37,381 --> 00:21:38,382
I'm straight.

304
00:21:38,507 --> 00:21:41,969
Narrator: It's certainly possible
that the move was spontaneous.

305
00:21:42,636 --> 00:21:45,430
Who knows, maybe it'd been
building inside of him

306
00:21:45,514 --> 00:21:47,516
since Otto gerhardt
took him off the street

307
00:21:47,599 --> 00:21:48,976
when he was eight years old.

308
00:21:49,393 --> 00:21:50,393
Whatever the answer,

309
00:21:50,435 --> 00:21:54,648
when Floyd gerhardt asked who
it was that was holding her son,

310
00:21:54,731 --> 00:21:56,316
ohanzee dent said...

311
00:21:56,483 --> 00:21:57,484
Kansas City.

312
00:21:57,609 --> 00:21:58,944
That milligan fella.

313
00:21:59,695 --> 00:22:01,154
It was an ambush. Luverne.

314
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,282
Butcher grabbed dodd,
fled the state.

315
00:22:06,618 --> 00:22:08,620
I tracked them to
a motel in sioux falls.

316
00:22:09,663 --> 00:22:12,124
They got numbers, but
they're not expectin' anything.

317
00:22:12,541 --> 00:22:13,941
Floyd: I'll be there
in three hours.

318
00:22:14,459 --> 00:22:15,460
Hanzee: No, ma'am.

319
00:22:16,211 --> 00:22:19,464
You send bear and a dozen men,
we can bring him home.

320
00:22:20,549 --> 00:22:21,925
Are you tellin' me what to do?

321
00:22:24,845 --> 00:22:26,722
Just can't vouch for
your safety is all.

322
00:22:26,930 --> 00:22:28,390
Three times I sent
men to do a job.

323
00:22:29,391 --> 00:22:30,871
Three times they
come back unfinished.

324
00:22:31,768 --> 00:22:32,936
I'll handle this myself.

325
00:22:33,729 --> 00:22:34,813
Yes, ma'am.

326
00:22:35,814 --> 00:22:38,025
We'll lay waste to 'em
in the devil's hours.

327
00:23:02,341 --> 00:23:03,675
Wranglers and white tees.

328
00:23:09,056 --> 00:23:11,350
Captain says we're goin'
undercover for the night.

329
00:23:13,644 --> 00:23:15,854
Poker later if you feel
like losin' some money.

330
00:23:19,858 --> 00:23:21,193
You better wear pants this time.

331
00:23:48,804 --> 00:23:51,098
Are we really doin'
the right thing here?

332
00:23:54,059 --> 00:23:55,060
What now?

333
00:23:59,898 --> 00:24:00,899
Anyone want tea?

334
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,401
No, thanks, hon.

335
00:24:02,567 --> 00:24:03,567
Officer?

336
00:24:03,610 --> 00:24:05,362
It's "detective."

337
00:24:05,779 --> 00:24:06,822
Sorry.

338
00:24:06,989 --> 00:24:07,990
Did you...

339
00:24:08,073 --> 00:24:09,116
Tea?

340
00:24:24,256 --> 00:24:25,257
Hey.

341
00:24:44,317 --> 00:24:45,318
What do you think?

342
00:24:46,903 --> 00:24:48,697
When he's sleepin',
we could just...

343
00:24:52,117 --> 00:24:53,577
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.

344
00:24:54,077 --> 00:24:55,120
None 0' that, now.

345
00:24:56,121 --> 00:24:57,289
Don't make me separate you.

346
00:25:02,127 --> 00:25:03,211
Okay.

347
00:25:22,522 --> 00:25:24,399
It's Ben, isn't it?

348
00:25:24,483 --> 00:25:25,484
Jamin.

349
00:25:25,650 --> 00:25:26,651
Benjamin.

350
00:25:27,486 --> 00:25:29,529
And you're from?

351
00:25:30,447 --> 00:25:31,448
Sorry.

352
00:25:33,992 --> 00:25:35,285
Fargo, north Dakota.

353
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,080
I work for chief Gibson.

354
00:25:38,705 --> 00:25:39,956
Which one is he again?

355
00:25:41,416 --> 00:25:42,417
Does it matter?

356
00:25:45,962 --> 00:25:47,005
I guess not.

357
00:25:53,804 --> 00:25:54,805
Thanks.

358
00:26:39,141 --> 00:26:42,394
I don't wanna feel down

359
00:26:43,937 --> 00:26:47,065
'cause my name
is getting' around

360
00:26:49,276 --> 00:26:52,863
I say the whole world
is letting me down now

361
00:26:54,364 --> 00:26:57,492
'cause I don't know
where I'm goin'

362
00:26:58,827 --> 00:27:03,582
yes, I guess
I'm going down, down, down

363
00:27:04,749 --> 00:27:07,919
and I feel I'm gonna drown

364
00:27:09,421 --> 00:27:12,757
yeah, I guess
I'm going down, down, down

365
00:27:15,302 --> 00:27:18,054
And I feel I'm gonna drown

366
00:27:26,479 --> 00:27:28,119
Woman: Car 18, come in. Over.

367
00:27:31,443 --> 00:27:32,611
Car 18. Over.

368
00:27:37,866 --> 00:27:38,867
Solverson.

369
00:27:39,326 --> 00:27:42,287
Yeah, just got a courtesy call
from sioux falls p.D.

370
00:27:43,079 --> 00:27:44,623
Say they found
constance heck dead

371
00:27:44,706 --> 00:27:46,124
in her room at
the southnik hotel.

372
00:27:46,791 --> 00:27:48,431
Guess she went out
there for a conference.

373
00:27:50,795 --> 00:27:51,880
You're kiddin'.

374
00:27:52,631 --> 00:27:53,673
No, sir.

375
00:27:53,757 --> 00:27:54,758
Strangled, they said.

376
00:27:56,384 --> 00:27:58,024
I mean, when's all this
madness gonna end?

377
00:28:00,931 --> 00:28:02,057
I surely don't know.

378
00:29:01,074 --> 00:29:02,075
Constance: Ltried.

379
00:29:02,701 --> 00:29:03,743
You heard.

380
00:29:38,737 --> 00:29:39,863
Yeah?

381
00:29:40,780 --> 00:29:41,865
Just checkin' in.

382
00:29:44,617 --> 00:29:45,618
I got 'em.

383
00:29:45,910 --> 00:29:46,953
Not sayin' you don't.

384
00:29:47,579 --> 00:29:49,706
Just want to go over
the details with 'em.

385
00:29:50,081 --> 00:29:51,249
Explain their rights.

386
00:29:52,834 --> 00:29:54,336
They know. I told 'em.

387
00:29:56,338 --> 00:29:58,378
Son, I get the feelin'
you don't want me to come in.

388
00:29:59,174 --> 00:30:00,592
All things equal, pops,

389
00:30:00,925 --> 00:30:02,844
we got a lot
a swinging dicks around here.

390
00:30:02,927 --> 00:30:04,888
But, command's been delegated.

391
00:30:05,263 --> 00:30:07,599
I'm in here, you're not.

392
00:30:08,892 --> 00:30:09,976
Let's leave it at that.

393
00:30:12,228 --> 00:30:13,938
You okay in there, ed? Peggy?

394
00:30:16,524 --> 00:30:18,318
Wire's secure and
no one's the wiser.

395
00:30:18,610 --> 00:30:20,862
We got the upstairs room
bugged and ready for the meet.

396
00:30:21,946 --> 00:30:22,947
Okay.

397
00:30:23,156 --> 00:30:25,700
Move quickly and with
authority, troopers.

398
00:30:25,867 --> 00:30:26,868
That's lesson one.

399
00:30:26,993 --> 00:30:27,994
Yes, sir.

400
00:30:28,078 --> 00:30:29,079
Ice machine's busted.

401
00:30:30,288 --> 00:30:31,289
What?

402
00:30:31,956 --> 00:30:34,876
I'm just sayin' it's your show.

403
00:30:35,085 --> 00:30:36,127
You've made that clear,

404
00:30:36,795 --> 00:30:40,465
which means I'm here to
observe, and what I'm observin' is...

405
00:30:41,633 --> 00:30:42,967
Ice machine's crapped out.

406
00:30:46,137 --> 00:30:47,138
Yeah.

407
00:30:47,806 --> 00:30:49,474
We bring this case in tomorrow,

408
00:30:50,308 --> 00:30:52,060
and there'll be
commendations all around.

409
00:30:54,896 --> 00:30:56,416
From this point on,
we're radio silent.

410
00:32:03,006 --> 00:32:05,049
Lou: Motor motel.
Motor motel, come in.

411
00:32:06,050 --> 00:32:07,635
Motor motel,
this is Lou solverson.

412
00:32:07,719 --> 00:32:09,359
They're coming!
Do you hear me? They're...

413
00:32:57,977 --> 00:32:59,354
When we reach the motel,

414
00:33:00,730 --> 00:33:02,232
I want you in the vehicle.

415
00:33:02,357 --> 00:33:03,608
Make sure you're safe.

416
00:33:04,317 --> 00:33:05,568
Hanzee'll stay, too.

417
00:33:06,486 --> 00:33:07,529
Okay.

418
00:33:13,535 --> 00:33:14,619
I miss them all.

419
00:33:18,873 --> 00:33:20,124
We'll be together again.

420
00:33:22,835 --> 00:33:23,878
On high.

421
00:33:35,098 --> 00:33:38,017
Best piss I ever took
was in a kitchen sink.

422
00:33:39,394 --> 00:33:40,937
No wonder you got divorced.

423
00:33:41,771 --> 00:33:43,314
I'm an outdoor guy myself.

424
00:33:44,524 --> 00:33:45,924
Policeman:
It's liberatin', I think,

425
00:33:46,693 --> 00:33:48,861
pissin' some place
where you're not supposed to.

426
00:33:50,154 --> 00:33:51,322
When I was a sergeant,

427
00:33:51,864 --> 00:33:56,703
I pissed in my 00's desk
drawer when he was in Hawaii.

428
00:33:57,870 --> 00:34:01,082
I drank six
coffees and a nehi first.

429
00:34:03,167 --> 00:34:04,711
Now, that was a good piss.

430
00:34:05,878 --> 00:34:07,505
Well, you got
the hardware for it.

431
00:34:07,714 --> 00:34:10,508
If that was me, I'd have
had to climb up on the desk.

432
00:34:19,976 --> 00:34:22,228
Two rooms upstairs, three down.

433
00:34:22,687 --> 00:34:25,023
Got dodd on the bottom,
next to the office.

434
00:34:25,189 --> 00:34:26,357
One man on guard.

435
00:34:26,941 --> 00:34:28,568
Milligan's on the second floor.

436
00:34:30,820 --> 00:34:31,821
Stay with ma.

437
00:35:13,738 --> 00:35:16,157
I like pissin' in the pool.

438
00:35:19,702 --> 00:35:20,912
That's just gross.

439
00:35:42,433 --> 00:35:44,519
Yeah, but, okay,
so why's pissin' in a pool

440
00:35:44,602 --> 00:35:46,479
so much worse than
pissin' in a kitchen sink?

441
00:36:07,250 --> 00:36:08,418
Screw this.

442
00:36:33,151 --> 00:36:35,027
Well, first of all, son,

443
00:36:36,070 --> 00:36:38,865
were there other people
in the pool at the time?

444
00:37:39,050 --> 00:37:40,051
Brother?

445
00:37:41,928 --> 00:37:42,929
Brother?

446
00:37:57,902 --> 00:37:59,028
All clear.

447
00:37:59,862 --> 00:38:00,905
All clear!

448
00:38:07,411 --> 00:38:08,579
Ben: Oh, Christ.

449
00:38:08,830 --> 00:38:10,331
It's rapid city all over again.

450
00:38:12,875 --> 00:38:13,876
Brother?

451
00:38:35,398 --> 00:38:36,482
Man: They're cops!

452
00:39:12,810 --> 00:39:14,312
No!

453
00:40:29,553 --> 00:40:32,974
Narrator: Then, as he killed
both friend and foe alike,

454
00:40:33,224 --> 00:40:35,893
it became clear
that hanzee was on a mission.

455
00:40:36,519 --> 00:40:39,480
To find the beautician and
her butcher's assistant husband,

456
00:40:39,563 --> 00:40:42,149
and silence them
once and for all.

457
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,529
Again, the question of why has
puzzled historians for decades.

458
00:40:46,821 --> 00:40:49,490
It's true that they had seen
him execute dodd gerhardt,

459
00:40:49,573 --> 00:40:50,842
and that they were
the only ones left

460
00:40:50,866 --> 00:40:53,369
who could reveal his treachery
for what it was.

461
00:40:53,661 --> 00:40:55,413
But maybe the reason was deeper.

462
00:40:55,621 --> 00:40:57,456
Peggy: Professional, you said.
Hanzee: Yeah.

463
00:40:58,416 --> 00:40:59,583
Tired of this life.

464
00:41:00,543 --> 00:41:02,545
Narrator: The fact that he had
shown his true self

465
00:41:02,628 --> 00:41:04,797
to them in a moment
of vulnerability.

466
00:42:08,444 --> 00:42:09,445
Oh!

467
00:42:09,528 --> 00:42:10,768
Gotta make a break for it, hon.

468
00:42:11,155 --> 00:42:13,157
Are you... are you seein' this?

469
00:42:20,372 --> 00:42:21,832
It's just a flyin' saucer, ed.

470
00:42:21,916 --> 00:42:22,917
We gotta go.

471
00:43:12,383 --> 00:43:13,509
Man: Officer down!

472
00:43:32,611 --> 00:43:34,196
I should have
gone home with you.

473
00:43:35,573 --> 00:43:37,074
Turns out I didn't go.

474
00:43:39,243 --> 00:43:40,411
Hank: Grateful for that.

475
00:43:56,135 --> 00:43:57,136
Mike: What the...

476
00:44:03,434 --> 00:44:04,435
Okay, then.

477
00:44:29,001 --> 00:44:30,836
Yeah, all right.

478
00:44:34,632 --> 00:44:36,342
Peggy? Ed?

479
00:44:38,135 --> 00:44:39,136
On the run,

480
00:44:39,803 --> 00:44:41,472
with the Indian in pursuit.

481
00:44:46,518 --> 00:44:47,519
I can make it.

482
00:44:51,482 --> 00:44:52,483
Dinner Sunday?

483
00:44:54,485 --> 00:44:57,696
I'll be there in
a suit of armor.

484
00:45:23,514 --> 00:45:26,392
Thought it was a nightmare

485
00:45:27,059 --> 00:45:29,270
lord, it's all so true

486
00:45:30,688 --> 00:45:33,816
they told me,
"don't go walkin' slow

487
00:45:34,149 --> 00:45:36,568
"the devil's on the loose"

488
00:45:37,152 --> 00:45:39,655
better run through the jungle

489
00:45:40,739 --> 00:45:43,325
better run through the jungle

490
00:45:44,368 --> 00:45:46,912
better run through the jungle

491
00:45:48,038 --> 00:45:50,958
whoa, don't look back to see

492
00:45:52,376 --> 00:45:55,546
thought I heard a rumblin'

493
00:45:55,921 --> 00:45:58,257
callin' to my name

494
00:45:59,300 --> 00:46:02,594
two hundred million
guns are loaded

495
00:46:02,845 --> 00:46:05,472
Satan cries, "take aim!"

496
00:46:05,889 --> 00:46:08,392
Better run through the jungle

497
00:46:09,435 --> 00:46:12,104
better run through the jungle

498
00:46:13,063 --> 00:46:15,607
better run through the jungle

499
00:46:16,734 --> 00:46:19,236
whoa, don't look back

500
00:46:20,988 --> 00:46:22,406
ooh

501
00:46:39,173 --> 00:46:41,759
Over on the mountain

502
00:46:42,676 --> 00:46:45,012
thunder magic spoke

503
00:46:46,096 --> 00:46:49,683
"let the people know my wisdom,

504
00:46:49,767 --> 00:46:51,894
"fill the land with smoke."

505
00:46:52,603 --> 00:46:55,314
Better run through the jungle

506
00:46:56,315 --> 00:46:59,318
whoa, don't look back to see
