Previously on "Dark Winds"...

Sylvia Washington, FBI.

This B.J. Vines character... did you know him?

Heard you lost your gun today.

I didn't lose it. Someone stole it.

I'm gonna find that van. I'm gonna find what's going on.

I think that woman and her daughter were being trafficked.

Ernesto Cata and George Bowlegs were gone

when mom went to wake them this morning.

What's the deal with you and Shorty Bowlegs?

Used to bully me at school.

Ah! Oh! God damn!

Gordo, he has something in his mouth.

Sorry about that.

I was wondering when you was gonna ask me about that.

This is a goddamn gun...

the one I took right out of that holster.

Yeah, see, I was down by the river,

going after those girls.

Now, I could've got away, right?

Nobody'd ever saw me.

Then I saw that holster, and I thought, damn.

Run down there lickety-split and grabbed it.

They call me the Panther...

silent, deadly.

Never see me coming.

We're here now.

Where's the crew?

Budge?

God damn it, Budge!

Don't leave, Budge!

No!

Somebody else can do this.

Doesn't always have to be you.

You know it does.

Oh, Jesus.

- You okay? -

I can handle this if you want.

Thanks.

Coroner said the murder weapon

was likely a small claw hammer of some kind.

Those cuts were deep, like it was personal.

Could be the boys fighting over something

that got out of hand...

What?

The arrowhead doesn't make sense, Gordo.

- Why not? - It's a sacred object.

Putting a arrowhead in the mouth of a dead...

Oh, it's like a...

Catholic defiling a crucifix.

Whoever did this isn't Diné.

George Bowlegs was our primary suspect

before we found Ernesto's body.

Nothing's changed.

What's... what's changed is the arrowhead.

And I have to assume whoever did this

is out there right now looking for George.

I'd like to find him before he ends up in here.

Cata's parents.

You always could fix anything, huh, Winford?

Jim Chee.

I heard you was in California...

loving on all those movie stars.

We fools just stuck around here and joined'ed the Army.

You and Shorty, you mean?

Where were you night before last?

Night before last... I wasn't nowhere.

That's funny. Shorty says that he was with you,

and you two were off hunting.

I was here.

But then we went hunting later.

I came back early.

When did, uh, Shorty get back?

I don't know.

- You know where George is? - No.

A kid was killed that night

you say you were off hunting with Shorty...

a friend of George's.

We're investigating your cousin in connection with that murder.

You sure you want to be covering for him?

That makes you an accessory.

I got work to do.

That's all you've ever been your whole life...

an accessory in the life and times of Shorty Bowlegs.

The question is, is he worth going to jail for?

I got nothing to do with that dead kid.

Tell me what happened, Winford.

Shorty told me to lie.

Dr. Reynolds!

- Ma'am. - Lieutenant.

Lieutenant Leaphorn...

Dr. Reynolds.

Uh, Teddi tells me you're looking

for... for those two boys...

George and Ernesto.

- Found one of them. - Ah, well, good.

I'm sure the other one will turn up.

Dr. Reynolds, I was hoping you could tell me

something about this.

What's that?

Ah.

Huh.

Where did you find this?

I found it in Ernesto Cata's mouth.

Found him not far from here.

He's dead.

Dear God.

Are you sure?

You're sure it's him? It's Ernesto?

I'm sorry.

Teddi.

Teddi.

This way, Lieutenant.

Let's get you a closer look at your evidence, yeah?

- After you. - Thank you.

New find?

Mm, Teddi found it last night...

end-of-the-day miracle.

Piece of bowl.

These people were...

sophisticated potters.

That, we know.

Uh, it's not my area of expertise.

Packing it up for a colleague.

Unfortunately...

this, uh... this arrowhead...

is a fake.

A toy.

Have a look.

I haven't used one of these since my days at ASU.

Oh, a fellow Sun Devil... Teddi told me.

I, uh, did my grad work there many years ago.

Notice the fluting along the edges, the percussion hits?

Mm-hmm.

Well, no man with Stone Age tools was ever that precise.

That arrowhead of yours was spit out of a machine.

So this couldn't have come from your site?

No, but if you want to see more of them,
