Walker

Good morning, kiddos. Whoa.

That-that looks, uh... ambitious.

Is this a...

a blowtorch? Wh...

Relax, I'm supervising.

Ah! Oh...

That is a hot skillet. - Ah, hmm-hmm, ah. Yeah, it is.

And even hotter pancakes.

I put some of Mawline's spicy jam in there.

Are they still camping?

Uh, my best guess is they've probably

checked into the Driskill Hotel by now.

Uh, Stella, by the way, they wanted me to tell you

good luck. And, sweetie?

Your Laredo game, I'm...

I'm gonna try my best to make it to the game.

Yes. - Clean your room. Hey, that skirt's too short.

Ugh. Dad!

Hey, if you can't make it to the game,

uh, I can just show it to you

when we get back from Laredo.

I'm filming it with Ruby. - Ruby?

This the same Ruby that told you

to crash my undercover operation?

She didn't tell me to.

So, anyways,

we are supposed to be filming the dance next Friday.

But I'm, uh, I'm thinking about asking her to go.

Yeah?

You don't think she'll say yes?

I think that is a tricky question.

Can we talk about something simpler?

Like gun control?

Or Dad's DPS hearing?

Wow. Very funny. You're out of luck on that one.

It was postponed.

Uh, which I do have to check on.

Uh, Augie... be careful.

All right.

Stella, sweetie, you'll be great.

Okay. I'll see y'all soon.

God, you weird-smile when you text him.

No, I don't.

Shut up.

Hey. Yep. Trey.

What, you hurt your hand again? Nah.

Good to see you, man.

Good to see you, too. Ow. Yeah.

No, don't even tell me.

You actually did hurt it?

You're a little too committed to this bit, my man.

Okay, it's not a bit. II burnt it at breakfast.

But... by the way, aren't you supposed to be driving

my kids to Laredo, Coach?

Yeah, yeah. I'm-I'm heading out right now.

You, uh, you checking in on Micki?

Yeah. Uh ...w's she doing? I don't know.

How would you feel if your mom got arrested

on her way to do a psych eval on your partner

for their anger issues?

Hey. Micki.

Babe, I'm out.

All right. - Bye, babe.

Hey. I, uh, just came to ask about your mom.

Yeah.

Apparently she's being detained in San Antonio

for a DWI hit-and-run.

I don't buy it.

She doesn't even drink--

her whole MO is accountability,

which really doesn't jivewith hitting or running. Yeah.

I'm with you there.

Though,

if she were convicted it would make life easier on you.

Uh...

I hope you're joking.

Walker, I'm just...

I'm still.... reeling.

I'll come with you. San Antonio.

I don't need backup. - It's not backup.

Look, if I go, we can make this an official case,

since it doesn't involve anyone from my family.

And so what am I?

Just a silent observer? - You know what?

We'll come up with a creative title

for you along the way.

Okay, well, just nothing with "assistant" in it.

No, no. Take however long you need, Walker.

Things are, uh, pretty slow here at the office.

I appreciate it, James-- uh, Captain.

All right.

Mm.

It ain't easy lying to your brother,

I will tell you that.

I know.

I'm lying to him and Bret.

But what can we say right now?

Oh, hey, maybe Carlos Mendoza wasn't

the slam-dunk perp that we all thought he was?

Well, any prosecutor would've called that

a slam dunk. I just don't understand

why an innocent man would continue to lie

about killing Emily.

Well, that's why we're here, isn't it?

Since Geri is MIA.

That drone footage has her two miles away the night of.

Not a lot Geri could tell us anyway.

Other than why she was making sketchy payments

to an art gallery through her bar.

If we can't follow Geri, then we follow the money.

Almost done with the bags?

Yeah, almost.

No thanks to you.

Here you go.

Hey. Any word from that friend of yours?

Mm-mm. No.

Hey, Ruby. Check this out.

Hey, you brought the big guns.

Hey, yep.

Oh, so I was actually thinking..

for the dance we're supposed to cover next week,

if, uh, I could...

Ah ..., hey. Perfect timing.

This is our newest A/ - V member.

Todd, August was just talking

about the dancenext week. Ah.

Same one - I'm taking you to, Rubes? - Yeah.

Um, I was just going to say that I...

could film it alone,

so that you guys could

go to the dance together.

Augie,

can you help me with my camera?

Yeah. I think it's broken.

Just thought it looked like you didn't want to be there

while "Rubes" was happening.

Oh. Yeah, that? No.

A bunch of kids go to the dance together just as friends, so...

Right...

Listen, I've been there.

It sucks when somebody gives you fireworks

but you can't give them back.

All right, girls. Let's get a move on.

Is that your, uh...

Water boy. Oh.

Thirsty, aren't we?

Hey, what happened?

We almost left without you.

Aw, were you worried?

Should I be?

Duke ruined our family.

He's the reason your mom is dead.

And we're not just gonna let that sit,

now, are we?

Should I be worried?

Course not.

Let's go.

Hey.

Hey. What'd you get?

Case file.

Bail just cleared, my mom should be out any minute.

You know, I still don't understand

how this got pinned on her.

Racial profiling, maybe?

Mexican-American driving a fancy car?

Look, all I know is ACLU's gonna have

a field day whenthey hear about this. Hey.

Mom, thank God.

You bailed me out?

I've already called someone else.

You shouldn't have come here, Micki.

All right, I'm sorry. My mom's accused

of a nonsense crime ...cki, stop.

Look, I called some people, we'll get the press involved,

it's gonna be ...told you to stop.

No calls, no press.

I will take care of this myself.

Micki...

I did it.

Huh.

So that's it, huh?

Your childhood home?

Wait, wait, wait.

We're not gonna go in, Walker. We're just...

we're just gonna keep an eye out

in case she does something weird.

We're spying on your mom?

Look, I knowyou want to believe

Adriana is innocent, but she said it herself...

Yeah, I heard her, and I don't believe her.

There was blood at the crime scene, Micki.

The report said it matched your mom's.

It was an incomplete DNA profile;

that would never hold up - in court. - You know what will

hold up in court?

Adriana pleading guilty. That's case closed.

Look, if she was involved in an accident

where enough blood was collected,

we'd see bruises at the very least.

Maybe... that's what her scarves are for.
