Lieutenant.
Russ Foster, 22.
Sue Lynn had him disenrolled from the tribe two months ago.
You like him for the car bombing?
Well, he's the only one of the disenrolled
who has a Portland address and fits the profile.
Parents are deceased, no living relatives.
He was picked up on possession last year,
but the charges were dropped.
Do you remember those, uh, three teens
that O.D.'d on the res last year?
Yeah.
Well, the timing lines up with Foster's possession charge.
I think he sold those kids the opiates that killed them.
Sue Lynn excommunicated him for it.
That sure is a hell of a motive.
- Let's bring him in. - Right.
MAN ON RADIO: Charlie 16. We have breach units inside.
Perimeter secured.
WOMAN ON RADIO: Copy that, Charlie 16.

I know. I know.
You were angry at Sue Lynn for kicking you out of the tribe.
- I get it. - She banished me.
I made one mistake, and she threw me away.
You sold drugs to kids.
To my friends.
They wanted the hookup.
They were gonna get it from somewhere else.

Liz Melero?
Yeah.
Any red flags?
One.
She's dating Grey.
Yeah, I just... I thought that, um...
because you were running all the other names, that having...
It's a felony for a police officer
to investigate someone on personal charges...
five years' jail time.
I did not know that.
You knew it was wrong.
Or you would've come out and asked me.

Do you have feelings for Grey?
What?! No!
- If you do, just... - [SCOFFS]
No, Liz is spending a lot of time with Ansel.
I'm just trying to be a good big sister.

Lieutenant.
I understand you have a prisoner in your lockup.
Russ Foster.
You didn't have to come all the way down here
to thank us.
Next time, I like a Chianti with a little age on it.
Your captain's getting a phone call from the feds right now.
They dropped the case.
I am not gonna let you do this again.
I'm afraid it's out of your hands, Lieutenant.
We were by the book.
Crime happened on our street,
suspect was arrested in Portland.
It was contained to a reservation-owned vehicle.
Our property, our jurisdiction.
And we choose not to press charges.
Russ is one of ours. We'll handle things internally.
Hold on. You had him disenrolled.
He will be re-enrolled.
Now... where is he?
♪
Hey.
What are you gonna do with him?
Ah, don't worry about it.
We don't have stockades on the reservation.
Sue Lynn. Come on.
When we lost those three kids,
broke my heart.
I needed someone to blame, and Russ was the easiest target.
Turned my back on him when he needed us the most.
I will not make that mistake twice.
$5,300 good?
Yeah, I take cash or check.
See if you can make it to the cashier
before placing a bet.
Why did you really pair me and Naomi up?
What do you think?
That you thought we were gonna work through everything?
The wise, old Indian... that's a stereotype, Dex.
Thought you knew better.
