You told me Jerry London asked for your endorsement.
You gonna give it to him?

Sheriff Hollister, now that Undersheriff London
has announced his candidacy,
we think you should begin to coordinate with him...
No.
Excuse me?
Hell no.
Jerry London hasn't been elected yet.
I'm not coordinating with someone
who might become the next sheriff.
No one else is running.
It's time to face facts.
London is the future of this department.
He's already presented his policy agenda.
Oh, I know. I've read it.
Jerry wants to drag this department
back to the 1950s,
and you're gonna let him do it.
If you have policy priorities you'd care to present...
We've got a budget deficit,
a staffing shortage,
and zero community outreach.
Look, I don't have much time left,
but I'll be damned if I'm gonna spend those days
talking about Jerry London's big plan.
We're not done here, Sheriff.
Oh, I think we are.
When I moved to the tenth floor, I made a commitment to myself,
to build a new department from the inside
that works for the people,
not the politicians.

Spanish sent 44 people to start this city.
None of 'em look like you or me.
They were even trespassers.
When our people finally got here,
wearing 2,000 miles of trail dust,
some of 'em had to eat each other
in those damn mountains.
I'm familiar with the Donner Party, Sheriff.
Right, I bet you are.
Well, this issue, it's all relative.
I mean, hell, cowboys are born homeless.
Too many of 'em die that way.
So what I'm sitting here
asking myself is, uh...
why?
Ahern Development.
You're on the board of that company, are you not?
Be very careful now, Sheriff.
I suspect you're about to say something you might regret.
Remember who controls your budget.
And I suspect you might regret
asking me to do your dirty work in the first place.
You don't have much time left, Sheriff.
Spend it wisely.
Well, the door swings both ways, pal.
Hey, Ryan.
Hey, Cade.
Didn't think I'd see you again. Are you okay?
Yeah, better.
RYAN: Hmm. Better is good.
Hey, listen, I, uh,
probably shouldn't be doing this but...
This belonged to Dennis.
I know he doesn't have a family but I, uh...
I think you should have it.
Well, I-I don't know if I can. I mean...
You're one of the only people who understands
what this meant to him.
And you're right, by the way. He was a protector.
I know people depended on him.
It's why he was killed.
I'm just hoping all this means something in the end.
I'll tell you what.
Why don't you hang around for this meeting
and I'll think about it.
Come on.
