♪ Wake up, sleepyhead...
What?STELLA: Sorry. It's weird
to think about our next house when we just moved out
of our "ancestral family home."
Well, hey, why don't we turn that around?
You know, [stammers] turn a negative into a positive.
Make lemonade out of lemons. Yeah?
I mean, when Mawline and Gramps refashioned the farmhouse,
they weren't thinking,
"These teenagers need separate bathrooms," right?
So, this is a wish list.
Just tell me your hearts' desires,
and I will write it down.
We're not gonna be in a rental forever.
Hey, team.
Ger.
How's everyone doing?AUGUST: Great.
Well, I mean, besides the Davidsons taking our house.

That-- I didn't mean that towards, like, you.
Oh, okay, so that's out.
Cool.
So I share a little DNA
with the Davidsons.
Family is about more than where you come from.
Mm-hmm.It's who sticks by you, right?
Yeah, we got you.GERI: I know you do.
Hey, I'm gonna borrow your dad for a minute. Is that okay?
Of course.
Geri, hey, hey.
I-I should've talked with you before I told them.
I know that. I'm sorry.
I mean, we were talking about my daddy's release from jail,
and it all just kind of came out.Hey, I get it, I get it.
Uh, there's something that I have to share with you.
Okay. I...
had a visit with Gale.
Really? Yeah.
Okay. Uh... Okay. Wow.
Uh, h-how-how did that go?
I mean, she-she cried when she saw me.
It seemed like she was more interested in getting to know me
than talking about the past, so...
that's... something.Yeah.
Yeah. She is an odd duck. [laughs] That's for sure.
Yeah, well, I for one
could see how it would be hard to find out
that the husband you grieved for,
what, 20-something years...Yeah.
...actually gave your baby away.
I mean, I'd probably focus on the good news, too, but...
Of course. Ger, I only wanted to prove
my dad's innocence.

to Geraldine about this eventually.
It seems like a good opportunity.
Yeah. Mama, you couldn't have known that the kid
Marv was talking about all those years ago was Geri.
Don't beat yourself up for that man's mistake.
Giving your child away like that,

To refresh: previous partner,
Miles Vyas, disappeared six months ago.
Two bullet casings were found where he was last seen.
Yeah, and those casings matched the gun that was stolen off you
earlier that night when you and Miles were separated.
Gun was never found, though. Or blood or a body.
And with nothing else, Captain Cole
designated Miles "presumed dead."
No other evidence in the report?
Well, I can't access the file. "Conflict of interest."
Fast-forward, Rita and Fenton show up tonight.
Lovebirds.
Do you think Rita is in on it?
No.
I know that's first on the checklist,
but she's a horrible liar.
And Rita loves Miles.
Anyway, I spoke to my C.I. in insurance fraud,
and she said you need two documents
when someone passes away at work:
notarized early death certificate from an employer
and a declaration
from an official agent of the state.
Fenton is the one who signed off on both.
Okay, w-well, Fenton is Miles' employer and a-a captain
of the Texas Rangers, so...Yeah, but the lack
of checks and balances, u-uh, he is now dating Rita.
I mean, we have enough for reasonable suspicion.Sure. Y-Yes.
I-If this was just some random guy off the street,
I-I would say, "Absolutely, let's go with it."
But Fenton is a captain of the Texas Rangers.
We're gonna need a lot more than reasonable suspicion.

And it wasn't who I knew him to be.
12 years had passed.
And he told me, the baby--
you-- were healthy and well-cared for.

but it seemed like Davidson family business.
Not mine.

it plays differently.
Yeah.
Can I ask you a question?Yes.
If it hadn't been me,

crossed your mind that some kid out there

Hey. There he is.

Getting access to that file will solve everything.
I'll get my lead,
and Rita will realize how poorly Fenton handled everything.
Okay, so,
best-case scenario, I go in there
and I convince Fenton to declassify the file.
Mm-hmm.Worst-case scenario, he figures out
what I'm trying to do and...

Well, if Perez is giving you trouble,
you probably deserve it.
Uh, I'm sorry?
Perez wasn't with me long, but she closed out more cases
in a few months than some of my guys do in a year.
Okay.
That may be the case, but let's be straight.
Perez's case work on her previous partner's death
leaves a lot to be desired, right?
Perez wasn't on the case.
And I'm not sure I have much patience for whatever this is.
Have a nice day, Ranger Walker.
This is about Rita Vyas.
Seems to me you're aiming to pick a fight, Ranger.
No, sir. I'm-I'm simply calling it how I see it.
The woman I'm with right now,
we have a complicated past as well.
Uh, complicated present.
Uh, but we, we've been through a lot together.
But we have a shorthand, she and I.
Maybe... we shared some grief.
As I'm sure you know, share some grief with somebody,
you'd do pretty much anything to keep them around, yeah?
I didn't presume Miles dead to date his wife.
I'm not saying that, sir, but I got to imagine
that there was already a little something between you, yeah?
FENTON:Well, it's not something most people would understand,
but it sounds like you've got a little experience.
She was the wife of one of my best Rangers.
When he went missing,
well, it started I would drop by from time to time,
keep Rita informed, make sure she was okay.
I mean, of course I did that.Of course.
Then I started making excuses to see her more.
She knew. She understood.
Yeah, of course. I understand.
But I don't understand
why you would rush a presumed dead order
without evidence if everything
was already going well between y'all.
Did you know it can take up to seven years
to get life insurance money without a body?
Rita needed it.
She had a mortgage, a daughter.
Didn't want to stand in the way of that.

But...

but it's not usually the vibe that she gives off.

Thank you for that.
Hey, um, what did you mean that the stuff
about your dad wasn't the hardest part?
Um...
Look, the-the Walkers, they-they keep saying that
it doesn't matter that I'm a Davidson.
I guess I just worry that some of them
are sort of set in the way that they see things.
Hey.
Maybe that's something that you can show Stella.

Tell her that you understand
what she lost when the Davidsons took Walker Ranch.
I think she'd really appreciate that.
Thanks.
Yeah.

CASSIE:Rita.
Let me get this straight. You would seriously
choose money over finding your missing husband?
Miles is dead, Cassie. You need to accept that.
No, Fenton botched that investigation.No.
You are so locked into your own story that you can't
even stop to think that maybe he's trying to protect you.
No...The-the case closed
because they found new evidence.
Rita, Rita, don't.What?
No. She's never gonna let it go unless you tell her.
Wh-- Tell me what?
[sighs]: Uh...
We found your stolen gun.
Guy called it in about 20 miles from the casings.
There was evidence of blood.
Forensics confirmed it was Miles's.
There was no blood where the casings were found.
We went back to the area, and a resident finally talked.
Reported seeing Miles forced into a black van with no plates
by a masked figure.
Once Miles was inside the van,
gunman shot him twice from outside, point-blank.
Blood inside the van, casings landed outside.
No prints on the gun.
No leads.
Why presume him dead without a body at least?
RITA: I asked him to.
When they told me what they found,
I knew Miles was gone.
But I couldn't just shut down.
I have a kid, a mortgage, the funeral.
So I asked Fenton
to file the paperwork for the life insurance policy.
He helped me when everyone else left.
I thought keeping things from you
might make it easier for you to stay.
It was a bad call.
You're a professional.
I'll declassify the case
and send it over to you for verification.
You deserve to know everything.
Captain. Thank you.
Uh, we'll take it from here.
Hey, hey.
You deserve peace, and I hope this leads you there somehow.
Rita, I...
Hey. Come on.
Oh, I'm looking forward to Kansas.
Hey, you want to sit with us? We have space.

We don't have to talk or anything.
This was my mom's.
I hadn't even realized I left it.
Yeah. I found it in the space
between the wall and the floor.
Must have gotten lost during the move.
You know, I thought I should give it to you,
but I didn't know when
or if you'd want to talk to me, so...
But what you said earlier, it hit me.
It really finally hit me.
I mean, everything you lost.
Just thought you shouldn't lose anything else.
Stel, I'm-I'm sorry.
I know it doesn't mean much, but...
I am.

[chuckles softly]
You know, when I came to Austin,
I was just trying to survive, but then
we started hanging out, and...
I mean, it sounds so stupid now, but...
that song that Sucker Punch played at The Side Step,
about the good days and my worries disappear?
That's-that's what it was with you.
Why didn't you just say that you wrote that for me?
I mean, that's what the song was for.
I mean, you saw Todd. He was effortless.
I didn't stand a chance against that guy.

[sighs]
You okay?
Oh. "You okay?"
Every woman's favorite question.
[chuckles softly]
All right. I get it.
You don't need me prying into your business, so...
Listen, I'm-I'm-a just head out.
No. Sorry.
I'm sorry.
Before, I thought, um...
I thought you and Cap were talking behind my back
in front of my face, and it pissed me off.
That's my stuff. It's not yours.
It's all good.
Anyway, look at this setup.
Just give me a cape and some star charts,
and I'm ready to go full Walter Mercado.
I'm sorry, who?
Trey, can I give you a tarot reading? Hmm?
I have no idea what they mean.
All right, let's do it. [grunts]
Okay.
[inhales] Hmm.
Oh. Uh...
Well, that one will be your past.
The next one will be your present.
That's a nice one.What do you think
the lady behind the lion means?
I think she's the strong one.
Oh.
She's taming the king of the jungle.
It's a different kind of strength.
You're very pure for an adult man.
[chuckles softly]
All right, this last one will be your future.
Okay.
Mm.
[whistles]
Uh...
I'm not claiming that one. That's... that's not for me.
No.
No, I-I don't think it is.
Maybe none of them were.
That one, that one's definitely for me.
[exhales] Damn it, Miles.
You know, you were right about this morning.
James and I were trying to have a hidden conversation.
Walker's old partner, we were...
eh, we were close.
And seeing you was a reminder that she's really gone.
Also, you're very off-putting at first,
so I had to let him know that, too.
[exhales] I'll drink to that.
You know, I get the feeling that when something's wrong,
even if you don't know why,
it's hard for you not to press for answers.
Sometimes you just got to know.
[softly]: Yeah.
To finding answers even when they hurt.
Bring it on.
To different kinds of strength.
[gasps] Oh! Oh. What are you doing?
Mm, I'm sorry.
That was good.
[stammering]
Get out! [gasps]Oh, gracious me.
