Only Mine

This was one case...

out of about seven million a year.

I haven't seen it all yet, but...

this one still seemed different.

Maybe it was how far it went.

Now, you never know how these situations

if they will end in violence.

But that threat of harm, that terror

that the victim is made to live with,

that's always there.

And suddenly one day...

boom.

Yes!

Yee-ees!

Submit.

Oh. Tommy, I'm so sorry.

Uh, I'm gonna be there as soon as I can. I just...

No, don't call Cherise in! I'm...

I'm literally right down the street.

No, I promise I'm really almost there.

-Honestly, like, 30 seconds. -

This time, I me... Oh, shit. Okay.

Um, hey, Tommy, I gotta go, but I...

I'm gonna be right there.

Don't call Cherise or anything else.

I'm sorry, Chief Dodd. I'm at your mercy again.

-Oh, you're not Chief Dodd. -Nope.

- Officer Barragan. - Officer Barragan.

-Right. You're the new guy. -Mm-hmm.

So you're probably not gonna let me off

with my usual warning then, right?

'Cause, I mean, why would you?

You know how fast you were going?

-Too fast? -Too fast.

And you were talking on your cell phone.

Mm.

Where you headed in such a hurry?

Uh, the James' Center.

-I work there. - Oh, okay.

-Yeah. -Where is that?

It's right up the corner. I'm headed to work.

Okay. Good to know.

We have the world's best pie.

Also good to know.

All right, Julie.

How did, how do you know my name?

Well, chief, he, uh, gave me a heads-up

on some of the town's more reckless citizens

and their routes.

I was expecting you.

So, here's what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna do what the chief would do here.

Julie Dillon,

consider this a verbal warning.

Well, thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

Just do me a favor, slow down,

keep both hands on the wheel.

If you're not careful, you'll fly into a ditch

or kill somebody.

I promise you, I will do neither of those things.

Okay.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

...two, two and a... Two, ten and twelve...

Get off the RV.

Wow!

Okay, so you guys got your food.

Um, you need the... What was it?

Hash browns and toast?

And then anything else?

- -Order up!

Hey, you still owe me hash browns and toast.

You don't have 'em, probably 'cause you didn't write it down.

Check your tickets. Table four.

Oh, come on.

So, since Tommy can't get it together,

hash browns and toast on him, coffee's on me.

-Thank you. - Hey!

-At least I was on time, okay? -Ha-ha.

-Good morning, Evelyn. -Hey.

-What do you have for me? -Uh...

Let me see here. Ah!

Okay. A ten-letter word for "freedom."

The, the third letter's a B.

Liberation?

Look at you. You are ready for college.

Even though you can leave the rest of us behind, it's fine.

I may be "liberated" from this town,

but I could never leave you.

Mm. By the way,

there's some extra in there this week.

I won 50 bucks in the scratch-off.

I can't take that.

Yes, you can, and you will. Go. Go.

So, I don't know

what you're up to tonight but, um...

so, me and the boys are heading to Lucky's

to play some pool and...

I don't know if you...

want to go.

That's nice. Sounds fun.

Sensing a "but" coming on its way.

It's inappropriate to talk about "butts" in the workplace.

What? No... No, no, no. I-I wasn't--

Gotcha.

Um, I can't tonight.

I have a thing with Kinsey and Suzanne and...

Lucky's sounds fun though.

Cool. That's, uh... That's awesome.

Maybe another time. I like pool.

[indistinct song playing on stereo]

Hello, Officer Barragan.

Don't tell me that you changed your mind about letting me go.

-Am I under arrest? -Nope.

While you are clearly a danger to yourself and others,

I'm just here to inspect the pie, ma'am.

It is really good.

I'll be the judge of that.

Do you have a preference?

I'll have whatever you think I should have.

Coming right up.

So...

with you being new in town and all,

I figured you might want somebody to...

I don't know, show you around?

Are you asking me out on a date, Julie Dillon?

Friday night.

I don't know.

A criminal and a cop?

-People might talk. -

Let 'em.

Friday night.

Yeah, we were close.

But, you know, when, when David showed up,

it... changed things.

How so?

I, you know, I just felt things were different.

She liked him, and what do I know?

She was happy.

Did you like her?

I mean, who didn't like Julie?

-Hey! I'm so sorry. -Hey-hey!

I couldn't get my till to close out at work

and it was this whole thing, so...

We'll see if I have a job tomorrow.

I am sure you're fine.

Got you little somethin'.

Doesn't look like much but, uh,

turn that, that's that, yeah.

-Thank you. -You're welcome.

Isn't that the guy you work with?

Yeah.

He was watching you during the show, you know?

-Pretty intense. -Well, that's just Tommy.

-Just Tommy, huh? -

Yeah. Now, where were we?

No, but, you don't like him, right?

What? No!

God, no.

'Cause I like you, Julie. I do.

Yeah? But do you "like me" like me?

I just said I like you.

Wait, are you letting me in here?

Uh...

Look, my last relationship was

really dysfunctional.

-So... -Someone from around here?

No. Uh, East Larson. Where I used to live.

Oh. What's her name?

Alicia. But I don't wanna talk about her.

David, I'm not her.

I know.

I just wanna be...

open about everything.

You know, this, whatever this is,

I... I want it to be right.

I don't know what to say. I like you.

You know...

Navajo myth talks about resisting meanness.

That was Julie growing up.

Not a mean bone in her.

Did she date a lot before this happened?

I was always happy when she found someone.

Truly.

For the first time since her father died,

her life was in perfect harmony.

-And he was like-- -Okay, okay.

-N-n-no, don't say it. -No, no, no, no...

And he was just like,
