[Dwight] Last night, an attempt was made
on one of Bevilaqua's men.
Lay low, figure out what Kansas City's gonna do.
- Shit just got real. - We're gonna hit fucking Tulsa,
we're gonna hit 'em hard. You understand me?
If it's the last fucking thing I do,
I'm getting rid of him.
I think you should go back to New York.
You break my heart.
I'm changing our agreement.
What, are you leaving the business?
You are.
[clicks tongue]
What's this-- an intervention?
You're being moved aside.
Motherfucker!
Bill Bevilaqua's planning to make
an attempt on your life.
Don't know the guy.
- You've been warned. - Appreciate it.
Good luck staying alive.
You're not allowed to be back here.
Where you gonna go, huh? Fucking Mars?!
It was Ming who tried to take him out
by blowing up Manfredi, and he missed.
Do you know what you fucking did?!
- Hey-- - I'm in a fucking war right now
because of you.
[Bodhi] Gun!
Jimmy. Fuck!
[men singing, chanting]
Why do we smile in such sadness?
Because of the memories
of the laughter that we shared in the past.
Why is there such relief
in sadness?
Because there is a peace in it.
There will never be fear again.
- [Old Smoke continuing] - Yo, is that Jimmy in there?
Sure is, along with
some of his personal belongings.
All in accordance with Native rituals, obviously.
I sent him to the other side with some moon rocks.
What's he, Buzz Aldrin?
There's definitely a buzz involved.
And he'll fly just as high.
- Moon rocks are the best. - [Old Smoke] Deep peace...
Though we grieve his loss,
we're grateful for the time we had with you, Jimmy.
That's very nice, Grace.
- Thanks. - [Old Smoke] The moon and stars
- put their healing light on you. - Jimmy'd appreciate it.
Deep peace of Mother Earth
and the four directions to you.
[quiet, indistinct chatter]
[Dwight] This is definitely something
you don't see in New York every day.
Hey, General.
Ah.
Sorry for your loss.
We're all sorry.
This...
is for you.
His mother, who's sick, wanted you to have it.
Thanks, but why me?
She said Jimmy had great respect for you as a leader.
Well, thank you very much.
I hope to put this to good use.
The people who did this-- they have interest in marijuana?
Yeah, well, it's a lot more complicated than that.
There's a lot of 'em.
They took out a guy who owned a 10,000-acre weed farm.
- [Dwight] Yeah. - We want payback for this.
I know. And that's got to be settled soon.
Yes, it does.
- We're at war. - Good.
We have the Maiule warriors here.
[Med Hat] Kinike, Himbosha, Yaloka, Haiupe, and more.
All Nations allied.
That's good to know.
- Old Smoke. - [grunts]
Say hello to our friends.
Dwight Manfredi, this is Old Smoke.
How you doing?
What did you say your name was?
Dwight Manfredi.
"The-White."
[chuckles] No.
Dwight with a D.
Uh-huh.
Like I said...
"The-White."
[laughing]
Okay.
Go in peace, brother.
Thanks.
[snorts]
What?
- "The-White," man. - Don't start.
Yo, Da-White man?
Da-White Manfredi.
- He's like a seer. - It's crazy,
How you never thought about that? That's--
I love that shit. Da-White Man.
[laughs] What's a seer, man?
- What are you talking about? - Like, medicine man plus.
- [chuckles] - You know, sees the future.
Come on, enough with the dream catcher powwow bullshit.
[imitates explosion]
We got to concentrate on what's important now.
Yeah, like when are we gonna take out Bevilaqua?
Whoa, what happened to all the pacifist shit?
Died along with Jimmy.
Jimmy was a good guy, Bodhi.
Jimmy and I were brothers, man,
and he's dead because of me.
Oh, don't even start that shit.
I invited him into this.
Hey, Bodhi, he accepted.
He was a grown man.
Okay. Well, excuse me for having fucking survivor's guilt.
My conscience is still intact.
I can't afford to have a conscience right now.
I cannot help the dead.
My job is to keep the living alive.
- [laughs] - [mutters, chuckles]
Hey, I'm gonna kill you. Seriously.

Dwight don't like me. You know that.
You, he might listen to. He's a huge

He's dangerous. Much more than I thought.

I've seen him kill people,

Oh. So, you got me in business with a fucking psychopath.
Wait a second, I think you are forgetting

Anyway, Ming has squeezed me out and he's threatened my life.

So, what's going on?
[soft chuckle]
Okay.
- About a year ago... - Mm.
I had a problem with my ex. You met him.
Yeah, don't remind me.
[chuckles] Yeah.
It was actually right after that.
He did a little creative accounting
and tried to buy me out of the ranch.
I needed cash.
A lot of it. Quickly.
Why didn't you come to me?
Because I felt stupid and...
and we didn't have that kind of relationship.
So, anyway,
I had known Cal Thresher
a long time.
And God knows he was rich, so...
He bailed me out. Took a position in the ranch.
How big a position?
Forty-nine percent.
We'll buy him out.
Not that simple.
He came in with a psychopath of a partner.
Guy named Ming.
- Ming. - And according to Cal,
it was Ming who was behind your car bombing.
You believe that?
I don't know. I don't know.
All I know is he asked me
to intervene on his behalf,
see if you would be willing
to talk to him and Bevilaqua.
Mm-mmm.
I'm way past talking.
I'm asking you to do this for me.
If you're having trouble, I'll take care of it.
