Hey, Cassie.
Miles.
How... how? I-I don't understand.
I knew you were alive.
It's so good to see you, Cass.
But we found your blood,
and casings. I know, I know.
Look, that night, uh...
when we got to tip
at the warehouses, you and I split up.
As soon as you were inside,
Fenton drove up. You ready?
We, uh...
we staged it.
We staged my murder.
We wanted to keep everyone safe.
From who?
Miles, you still
haven't told us.
Safe from who?
I checked all active
Ranger investigations,
and guess what? Yours was not an official op.
Couldn't be.
We don't know who to trust.
But you trust Captain Cole.
Do you know what kind of man Captain Cole really is?
I spent months looking for you.
I forced myself to think that you were alive
even when everyone made me feel like I was crazy.
And I-I can't believe I even
have to ask you. You can't just level with me?
Miles, whoever was outside of that trailer
tried to kill us.
And they would have if we hadn't shoot our way out
and-and hide in the brush for hours.
You need to start talking, Miles.
Why use my gun?
What are you talking about? Oh, just
cut the crap and tell me why you wanted me to feel responsible.
Cass, I don't know how that happened.
I swear.
Listen, the threat is still out there.
It's not safe for me to be here right now.
Hey, here is the safest place for you to be
until you tell us who's trying to kill you and why.
Damn you for keeping me in the dark.
Cassie...
Uh, hey, Stella. What are you...
Oh, I kept my key and I watch you sleep every night.
Your dad let me in.
I'm making you a Mawline omelet.
Also, good morning.
Morning.
So...? It's like a Denver
but instead of green peppers it has mushrooms.
Try it.Okay.
That's really good.
What's the occasion?
I don't know, me and my boyfriend
were rescued off a mountain, for one?
Boyfriend, huh?
Is that okay?
Uh, yeah, it's better than okay.
I think our families should have dinner.
Together.
Wave the white flag, you know?
You-you think dinner could do that?
It was actually my uncle Liam's idea,
but I do really think it's worth a shot.
Well...
I mean, I guess.
If we make it out alive.
Yesterday was not great,
but at least they worked together.
Wouldn't that be nice
if it was all the time?
Without the "almost dying in the woods" part.
You know, can-can I finish this?
Are you gonna talk to your mom?
For you? Yes, I will.
Then, yes. Please continue.
Maybe I shouldn't have pulled up all of Abby's heirlooms,
huh? Thank you. Speaking of which,
Colton called. Mm-hmm?
He wants us to have dinner with them.
Oh.Him and Stella want us
to bury the hatchet, I guess.
Oh, that's very sweet.
You know I'd do anything for my grandson,
No, I think we should.
I mean, don't you think it's time?
We can end all the drama from the past year.
We... It's not us, Ger.
Liam is the one that tried to frame Dan.
And Cordell... I mean,
he's got his own issues. I mean, doesn't he?
I think Geri's right. Yeah.
A Davidson-Walker supper's been long in the making.
Mm. Why not?
Why not.
Mm. Are you serious, Mother?
What? You want to eat
with them after everything? No.
I just want to know why they want to.
That is reason enough.
Rita. Hi. Thank you for coming.
You said it was urgent.
Um, is this about
what I said to Captain James about following Fenton?
Yes. It is.
After the Ranger fair, I started to look for things.
Does Fenton know you're here?
No, you said not to tell anyone.
Come with me.
I don't believe it.
Is this you? Yeah, it's me.
It's me. Hey, look, I'm here now, okay?
I'm here. Hey, where's,
uh, where's Sachi at?
Uh, she's at school.
I didn't know you would...
What's wrong? What's wrong?
I thought you were dead.
I was...
lost, confused,
to say the least. And, um...
Fenton...
What about Fenton?
He was there for us, Miles.
Fenton and I...
Oh.
Baby, we didn't know...
Fenton did.
He knew Miles was alive. The whole time.
He lied.
To both of you.
Is she telling the truth?
Yeah.
I trusted him.
I didn't know who else
to turn to, and he... You didn't know, no.
You couldn't have known about that.
And whatever the hell you two are mixed up in,
let us help you.
Liam,
hey, uh... not a great time.
What the hell is that?
Just try it.
Hey, I'm.. I'm gonna be quick.
I spoke to Stella.
She said dinner is on with the Davidsons tonight, okay?
So we'll be civil,
get them to talk, and they just
might admit to something.
Okay? Are you still cool with that?
You know, Uh...
the kids are gonna kill you when they find out
that you used them to highjack this dinner.
The kids will forgive us
when we get the ranch back.
Let me get this straight...
So y-you're hoping that
Gale or Denise will fly off the handle,
slip up and confess?
Yeah.
Yeah, well, good freaking luck.
Uh, Stinker, D-Daddy's right.
I mean, I-I agree with him, you know?
And I-and I'm worried about collateral damage.
Collateral damage?
Cordi, they took everything from us.
No, I know, I know. It's just,
the kids. You know? And-and Geri.
A-All this "eye for an eye" stuff...
Everyone's gonna end up blind.
Except Dan is our Trojan horse, okay?
He can get Denise to talk.
Plus, he's willing to testify.
You trust him?
I mean... I trust that he will protect himself. Are you getting cold feet?
No, no, I'm not.
I-I just...
Liam, there-there's got to be some, uh,
some limit to what we can all take,
you know? D...
I-I got to... I to get.
How is it? It's pretty good.
Hey.
Got a location on Captain Cole.
About to have a little chat with him.
You hold down the fort there,
and then we'll finish this, all right?
Copy that.
Thinking about ditching the piano and taking up guitar?
I don't know.
You know, with the band officially disbanding,
I think it's time to try something new.
You've grown so much this year.
With everything that's going on...
