Killer Women (2014) s01e06 Episode Script
Daughter of the Alamo
Previously, on Killer Women You're for real? Thought all rangers were dudes.
If you really wanted out, You would've already told everybody what you think happened.
That the good and honorable senator beat his wife? I keep our relationship on a need-to-know basis.
Lady, want to go up on a plane? - No.
- Don't you trust me? - You're safe.
- I believe you.
I haven't seen you inhale salted peanuts and soda since you were pregnant with Lulu.
I'm nine weeks.
I'm having some financial issues.
I just had to take on some outside work.
I finally got a lead on who's helping the cartel on this side.
After I bust this bastard, I'm whisking you away for your birthday.
D.
E.
A.
! Get out of the truck! I got it.
Billy, if there's something you need to tell me, now's the time.
We just found these stitched inside one of the steers in the back of your truck.
That's cocaine.
And you're hauling a whole hell of a lot of it.
Damn it, Billy, You're looking at 20 years in federal prison right now.
You just gonna stand there and say nothing? Don't I get a phone call? Mmm.
Enchiladas poblanas? Yeah, and homemade Arroz Con Leche for dessert.
Billy's favorites.
Am I interrupting a private moment? Private? Between me and the Enchiladas? Your brother's not home.
H-how come? Well He called and said he got arrested.
He what? He bumped into an old college buddy of his, went into a bar, got drunk, got into a fight, You know, I made all this perfect dinner to tell him that I'm pregnant, and maybe I should just send him a text instead.
Becca, I'm sorry.
Wait.
Weren't you supposed to be in New Orleans, flying away with Dan for your birthday? Yeah.
He didn't show, either.
- Why? - I don't know.
Maybe he got held up at work.
_________ So, since you're pregnant, I'm drinking for two.
That's the song that I knew when I was young about the tall trees in Georgia if you love all men, you'll be left with none don't you see that's what you've done? Lady, Can I help you with-- what it'd be like in the willows with you we'd be free like we used to What does that even mean? It means we'd want nothing but to be a good choice to choose you're a good choice Why am I here? You caught Mr.
Parker in flagrant possession of major weight.
I'm prosecuting.
Mr.
Parker served his country in Iraq and Afghanistan.
From the D.
E.
A.
's point of view, he's an asset-- could help us get closer to the higher-ups in the cartel.
His mistakes could help us.
His mistakes? Agent Winston, my cow died last night, so I don't need any of your bull.
I-it can't look like we're doing favors for the brother of a Texas Ranger.
And it sure as hell can't look like we're doing favors for the brother of your girlfriend.
Not exactly a secret.
Ulysses, what do you need to get past that? Where were you taking those cattle? To the stockyard.
- Which stockyard? - I don't know.
It changes with each run, you know.
Somebody calls me.
How many runs have you completed for the cartel? This was my fifth.
It's getting harder and harder to get past anything here, Agent Winston.
It's a good thing.
He has credibility now.
We have the cattle he was transporting last night.
The cartel doesn't know that.
Right? They're gonna be calling him to set up delivery instructions.
- And? - And he's gonna tell them that he's not gonna deliver unless he meets the man in charge.
Ulysses, we could finally land someone above this.
No, hey.
Hold on a sec.
I've got a family, okay? I got two daughters.
I didn't sign up to be an undercover operative.
We'll watch them.
All right? And we'll watch him.
You willing, Mr.
Parker? It's this or multiple felonies.
I didn't know there were drugs in those cattle.
Uh, maybe I did.
I just didn't want to believe it.
And you know that's no excuse.
Yeah, I reckon.
All right, well, give it to me.
How'd this happen? My pa-- when he died, the ranch was way underwater.
He owed everybody.
I thought we were gonna lose that place.
- Did Molly know that? - No.
Hell no.
I never told her.
Her whole soul is built around her love for our old man.
She is who she is because she believes that she's the daughter of a righteous lawman.
If she found out that he was a secret gambling addict, that'd just break her heart.
And you smuggling cocaine for the cartel wouldn't? All I knew was that I needed a loan bad, and I couldn't get one.
Then this little private bank stepped in.
When I fell behind in my payments, they said they'd cut me a break if I helped out one of their other clients.
He had some cattle coming in from Mexico.
All I had to do was pick them up and say that they were going to my ranch, which, obviously, they weren't.
I don't know-- I thought it was - a-a tax dodge or a money laundering.
- Oh, come on, Billy.
At least that's what I hoped it would be.
Well, we never get nothing out here like this.
I'm here to help.
It's what we do.
Who's the victim, sheriff? He's Bob Chandler.
Did you know him? Everybody up here does -- did.
He was a hell of guy.
I can't believe this.
Any next of kin we need to notify? Mm, Bob was single.
Folks tried setting him up.
We all hoped he'd meet a nice girl one day, but he never did, I guess.
Ran this place for 30 years.
Gun's gone.
Man spends his whole life servicing a community, some damn meth head comes in and kills him for 50 bucks.
You have any idea what kind of vehicle Mr.
Chandler drove? An old tow truck.
It wasn't here when I pulled up.
You think whoever did this took it? Yep.
And his boots.
How's my friend Deputy Dew? Upset.
He knew the victim and liked him.
So did everybody else in the community I spoke to.
No such thing as surveillance cameras out there.
Nope.
Most of Mills County is still without internet.
I put out an alert for a male suspect driving the victim's tow truck, shoe size approximately 13.
It's probably a transient, drug-related.
Wants and warrants turned up two parole violators and one missing patient from a psych ward-- female.
No reported felonies in the county in the last two months.
Maybe I should retire there.
Yeah, if you like tumbleweeds, dust storms, and really big grasshoppers.
Whoa.
Those are pretty.
Yeah, but the reason for them isn't.
After a big build-up for my birthday, Dan couldn't make it.
Uh-oh.
Let me guess-- not from Dan.
Jake.
Molly, Everyone's entitled to their privacy, but every time your ex-husband's name comes up, you get a real burr under your saddle-- one that seems to break skin.
It might help to talk to someone about what happened between the two of you.
Not with me, but with somebody.
Why? Because it holds you back.
You think it's affecting my work? No, but if I didn't know better, I'd say you're afraid of something there, and you don't need to be carrying any extra fear around when you're chasing bad guys.
No offense, lieutenant, but you haven't been through a divorce.
You don't know how it feels, What it does to you.
I don't live in Seguin with my wife anymore.
For the last 17 months, I've been staying in a hotel.
You're the only person besides her and my son that knows that.
That's the first part of the story.
Maybe someday I'll get to part two.
Hon? Hey.
Look, I know sorry's not gonna cut it.
I remember that.
That's Lulu's, huh? They grow up so fast, huh? Wait a minute-- Her-- Are you-- Are we gonna-- Oh, baby.
I love you.
I love you so much.
Maybe we'll have a son.
But I need you here.
I know.
Those for me? Maybe.
I am so sorry.
Yeah, right.
I just wish you would've texted an hour earlier so I didn't sit there and wait and worry.
You're right.
The busts went I was up all night.
On that cattle thing? It's more complicated than I expected.
Well, did you nail his ass? Yeah.
And the guy that we nabbed could get us deeper into the cartel.
That's a good thing.
Molly, listen.
I need to take off, just for a while.
Why? You going undercover? No.
Y-you mean from me.
Look, Molly, please.
Okay? You have to trust me on this.
No, Dan.
I don't have to trust you.
But I did.
Good luck with the case.
One touch from your silver tongue Hey.
This the truck you're looking for, Ranger? Yes, sir.
Is it out of gas? That would be my observation, but, uh, I ain't no Ranger.
W-we'll do whatever we can to help, Ranger.
Black smoke from the cracks in your doorway You aware our suspect is armed and dangerous? Snapped a victim's neck with a whip-- barbed whip.
Not only did it break his neck, it punctured his jugular.
An unfamiliar face Looks like the killer headed out on foot.
- This road heads Southeast? - Yes, ma'am.
Every single time an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes We're in the middle of a desert.
How long ago do you figure it rained out here? Uh, a couple months ago? So do either of you have an explanation as to why the earth is saturated here? Runoff? It's not water.
It's human urine.
Naked eye looking out of the chasm What, the guy took a leak, and then he took off? There are boot imprints on each side of the puddle.
Our suspect squatted to pee.
Check all hitchhikers on the main roads.
We're looking for a female, armed and dangerous and most likely headed West.
Yes, ma'am.
Lift the veil when you close your eyes an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes So you look away every single time an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes I'm looking for someone who killed a man in Mills County-- a service-station owner.
How was he killed? Barbed whip-- broke his neck.
When she was 13, Rae Ann attacked a child, bit off the boy's ear, then swallowed it.
That's gruesome.
Medically, she's a paranoid schizophrenic.
The tribe has another name for her-- Evil.
The tribe? She's an orphan who grew up in foster care on a reservation.
She's half-Indian, half-white.
She believes she's the reincarnation of Peta Nocona.
The Comanche war chief? - You know that? - Yes, sir, I do.
On May 19, 1836, Peta Nocona attacked my family's fort and killed most of my ancestors.
Cynthia Ann Parker was-- Was 9 when she was abducted.
She stayed with the tribe and became Peta Nocona's wife.
- And you're related? - Hell of a coincidence.
Unless it's fate.
Thanks for your time, Doctor.
Evening.
Ranger.
We've been expecting you.
You have? You're looking for Rae Ann Rabago? She was here? How long ago? Please.
She's extremely dangerous.
Any information that you could give me-- White Deer will tell you what you need to know.
White Deer? Please Sit beside me.
Thank you for seeing me.
I can't see you, but you already knew that.
It's why you sit so cautiously.
Seeing people think blind people are fragile, but I can see you in other ways.
You are right to be afraid, Molly Parker.
You know who I am? I know that your fate as a Parker is once again tied to a Comanche.
You need to stop her.
She's going to Mexico.
She wants to spill the blood of white people.
Well, there are plenty of us here.
Why would she go there? Weapons.
They're cheaper across the border.
She wants to buy guns to kill settlers who have come onto our land.
Settlers? Isn't she a little late? She is sick.
Her soul is dark.
Unfortunately, destiny has linked her to you.
Now, be careful.
It Magic.
You have a dark past that you will not release.
The secret you hold frightens you.
To stop Rae Ann, you must go to the bottom of your soul.
If you survive, you will be free, and the shame that you hide from the whole world will finally be released.
Our fugitive is Rae Ann Rabago.
She grew up on this reservation and knows every tree and trail, so it'll be easy for her to move quickly.
We have to assume that she's headed to the border.
One group from here will head Southwest.
Ranger Parker will be going Southeast.
We'll cross-grid until the dogs pick up a scent.
- Are we clear? - Yes, sir.
Make sure to stay on your radios at all times.
The suspect is extremely violent.
If cornered, she will attack, so be careful.
All right, let's go get her.
Come on, mount up.
- I'm going with you? - You got a better offer? No, ma'am.
So, this is how it works, huh? You call, I drop everything.
You should be thanking me we're not having this conversation in a jail cell.
Yeah, you're right.
You hear from him? No, they ain't called yet.
All right, well, when they do, remember, don't be overly confident, and don't demand anything.
Be steady and clear in your request.
The goal is to get one of those generals in there to negotiate with you.
Yeah, well, somehow I don't think that's their usual way of doing business.
That's why you got to be convincing.
You like screwing with people's lives, Dan? Think you brought this on yourself, buddy.
I ain't talking about me.
I'm talking about my sister.
Molly's upset.
I figure it's got something to do with you.
- I can't see her for a while.
- You dumped her? What, because of me, because of this? Well, yeah, because of this.
Look, she can't know about this.
And I don't lie to the people I love, so there you go.
You think she might double-back on us? Could do.
We got to consider all scenarios.
I first saw a ranger when I was 6.
I always kind of wanted to be one.
Well, then, you should pursue it.
Ah, my skill set's pretty limited.
So was mine, till they sent me to Ranger school.
You learn tracking, interviewing, forensic hypnosis, how to shoot everything but a bazooka.
Something wrong? Oh, I was just thinking about that Ranger I told you about.
He came to tell us that my dad had died.
He was shot down by the train tracks.
I'm sorry.
Uh, I got married last year.
First little one's on the way.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I'm gonna name him after my dad.
Maybe he'll be a lawman just like you.
My dad was a sheriff.
But not a Ranger? It's on my bucket list, taking the Ranger exam.
Just got to find the courage.
They got a scent.
Split the dogs.
Get them on the other side of the growth area.
Unleash them if we lose the scent back here.
Yes, ma'am.
Listen to me, Del.
Rae Ann's heading for the river.
If she gets there, we lose her scent.
Dogs'll be burned, so nothing gets past this line.
Nothing gets past you.
- Do I shoot her? - Listen to your gut.
You'll know what to do.
She's in there.
Okay, let's go! Aah! Molly! It's Rae Ann's.
She wanted us to follow the wolf.
She must have ripped it off the bottom of her shirt.
How'd she get it on a wolf? Carefully.
Must mean she's real near.
927 clear to 902? About 30 minutes ago, we lost Rae's scent.
I sent the dogs back.
Officer Trevino and I are continuing on horseback.
We're on the East side of the river, approximately 10 miles West of the starting point.
- 927, copy that, and stay in touch.
- Copy that.
Ranger, I think I got something.
She crossed here.
Del, come on.
We got to move-- now.
- What? - I can't swim.
That's fine.
I need a radio relay anyway.
You stay here by the river.
Knowing I can reach you gives me a world of confidence.
We're gonna get her.
Ranger! I'm coming for you, Rae Ann! Thought you said you couldn't swim.
I can't.
Radio's dead.
Oh, I got my-- My phone.
I don't have my phone.
Damn it.
No signal, anyway.
We don't have any more contact with the outside world.
They know where we crossed.
Hey.
You saved my life.
Mr.
Parker, you forget something? No.
You know, 'cause I see your gringo face, but I don't see your cattle truck anywhere.
Where's our merchandise? You shoot me, you're never gonna see that merchandise.
How 'bout we go to your ranch, huh, take a look around? What, do you think I'm stupid? That's the last place I'd hide your drugs.
You just tell your boss I'm here to talk, that's all.
No, he's not interested.
In increasing his profits? Are you sure about that? What the hell are you talking about? Look, man, I brought in five loads already.
Now, I can triple that without raising any suspicions.
The border guards, they just wave me right through.
I got five generations of cattlemen in my family.
If we can work something out.
Now, you tell your boss I'll be back here at 10:00 tonight.
You know, gringo, you're starting to sound a lot like a narc.
Are you wired? 10:00.
Tonight.
Maybe he doesn't want to meet you.
That's fine, man.
Don't give him my message.
But my bet-- you're the first one that gets shot if those drugs stay missing.
She's covering a lot of ground fast.
How far out do you figure we are from the border? About a day on foot.
But once she gets closer, she'll be on the roads, and any driver could pick her up.
We got to hope she's gonna stop for the night and build a fire.
- Think she will? - No.
What should I be looking for besides footprints? Uh, you see these rocks? They're embedded in their original positions, but they've been slightly pushed away from the dirt that was right up against them.
Yeah.
And this grass-- it's been stepped on.
It's gradually standing itself back up straight again.
You learn this in Ranger school? Yep, and you got to be listening.
Sometimes birds make noise when something invades their territory.
- You nervous? - No.
Your heart's racing.
What's my safe phrase again? "When are you heading back to Mexico?" Yeah, Right.
You gonna give me a gun? You know that's against policy.
Yeah, well, it's against my policy to go into a combat situation without a weapon, so-- My guys are gonna be all over you, okay, if anything goes sideways.
Yeah, question is, are you gonna be there in time? All right, so, look.
Don't rush the transaction.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right? And listen carefully.
You are a businessman making a business deal.
- Got it.
- That's all.
Ready? I never imagined, in a million years, I'd find myself neck-deep with a bunch of drug dealers, and it's all my fault.
Dan, listen to me, man.
If something goes wrong, you know, if something happens, just-- I don't want my family to know the truth, okay? I want my kids to be at peace with who I was, who their daddy was.
So you just-- just tell them something-- something else, anything else, okay? I'll do whatever I can.
Okay.
Billy.
- Nothing's gonna happen tonight, all right? - Yeah.
Good.
Let's do this.
When I saw that fifth Jack and he began to understand and nobody gives a damn how can you stop to comfort every heart Where's his audio? Just getting that music.
From what? His car radio? He's got to be with them by now.
So, you wanted to meet the boss.
Well, here I am.
I came here for a conversation.
So talk.
I want to be your partner, not your damn errand boy.
I can get as many cows as you want across the border.
That's what you want? Yeah.
Are you working for the government? I ain't got no love for the government, and I need money-- that's no secret.
I want to believe you.
But I'm having a hard time.
Think about it.
If I was a snitch, the cops would be in here already.
Maybe.
You satisfied? Actually no.
D.
E.
A.
! D.
E.
A.
! No! No! Come on! Come on! Damn it! What the hell were you thinking, Billy, taking off your wire? I'd be dead right now if I hadn't! You were almost dead anyway.
You tell your prosecutor I'm done.
It's over.
It doesn't work that way.
It does now.
It's like she just disappeared.
We'll find her.
Stay tight.
There! She was just right there.
Can't see.
Where is she?! Stay tight! I got her! I got her! Del! Officer Trevino! Del! Raise your eyes and make them bright May his soul There's lace upon your shoulders And the souls of the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
And light will walk you home tonight Amen.
As though you have no weight upon your back Rest in peace, Ranger.
Make your voice be soft tonight there's gold around your fingers and light will walk you home tonight as though you have no cares upon your mind Where is she, Del? Help me? Lace in light That's blood.
Makes shapes with all your shadows Looks like you got her after all, Trevino.
Lace in light the old queen will hide our sorrows Lay in light makes grace in all your shadows I don't need to know what's going on.
But I need to know this family is safe, Billy.
Are we safe? We're safe.
Damn it.
Lieutenant Zea.
It's Parker.
I'm in close pursuit of Rae Ann.
Molly? Mol-- I can't hear you.
Can you hear me? Where-- Give me your location.
I'm about one mile north of the border fence.
I don't know exactly where.
But if you can triangulate me-- If you can triangulate me, I need more backup.
One mile north-- that's all I got.
What? What the hell? No.
No! I'm not losing.
Where-- Where are you?! I'm not afraid of you! Come on! She's gonna need a doctor.
There's a deputy's body in the forest.
We need to bring him out with an honor guard.
And I want to be the one to tell his wife.
Looks like you could use a doctor, too, Ranger.
Got to get home.
Why? I almost failed out there, Lieutenant.
Well, you faced one hell of an adversary this time.
White Deer told me I could beat anything if I could beat Rae Ann.
I've got one more demon to deal with.
Lu needs a new pair of goggles.
She keeps losing them.
All right.
I'll take her to the sports shop after lunch.
Great, because I have to meet a new manager in town around 3:00, so that would work.
Was I supposed to take the shells out before I scrambled them? I need to tell you something.
Are you all right? Never better.
When I was married to Jake, he beat me.
That's why I left him.
I never told anyone.
I was afraid.
I was ashamed.
I'll kill that son of a bitch.
No.
It's not your battle, it's mine.
Tomorrow, I'm gonna go into court, and I'm gonna tell the world.
I'm not afraid anymore.
If you really wanted out, You would've already told everybody what you think happened.
That the good and honorable senator beat his wife? I keep our relationship on a need-to-know basis.
Lady, want to go up on a plane? - No.
- Don't you trust me? - You're safe.
- I believe you.
I haven't seen you inhale salted peanuts and soda since you were pregnant with Lulu.
I'm nine weeks.
I'm having some financial issues.
I just had to take on some outside work.
I finally got a lead on who's helping the cartel on this side.
After I bust this bastard, I'm whisking you away for your birthday.
D.
E.
A.
! Get out of the truck! I got it.
Billy, if there's something you need to tell me, now's the time.
We just found these stitched inside one of the steers in the back of your truck.
That's cocaine.
And you're hauling a whole hell of a lot of it.
Damn it, Billy, You're looking at 20 years in federal prison right now.
You just gonna stand there and say nothing? Don't I get a phone call? Mmm.
Enchiladas poblanas? Yeah, and homemade Arroz Con Leche for dessert.
Billy's favorites.
Am I interrupting a private moment? Private? Between me and the Enchiladas? Your brother's not home.
H-how come? Well He called and said he got arrested.
He what? He bumped into an old college buddy of his, went into a bar, got drunk, got into a fight, You know, I made all this perfect dinner to tell him that I'm pregnant, and maybe I should just send him a text instead.
Becca, I'm sorry.
Wait.
Weren't you supposed to be in New Orleans, flying away with Dan for your birthday? Yeah.
He didn't show, either.
- Why? - I don't know.
Maybe he got held up at work.
_________ So, since you're pregnant, I'm drinking for two.
That's the song that I knew when I was young about the tall trees in Georgia if you love all men, you'll be left with none don't you see that's what you've done? Lady, Can I help you with-- what it'd be like in the willows with you we'd be free like we used to What does that even mean? It means we'd want nothing but to be a good choice to choose you're a good choice Why am I here? You caught Mr.
Parker in flagrant possession of major weight.
I'm prosecuting.
Mr.
Parker served his country in Iraq and Afghanistan.
From the D.

's point of view, he's an asset-- could help us get closer to the higher-ups in the cartel.
His mistakes could help us.
His mistakes? Agent Winston, my cow died last night, so I don't need any of your bull.
I-it can't look like we're doing favors for the brother of a Texas Ranger.
And it sure as hell can't look like we're doing favors for the brother of your girlfriend.
Not exactly a secret.
Ulysses, what do you need to get past that? Where were you taking those cattle? To the stockyard.

Ulysses, we could finally land someone above this.
No, hey.
Hold on a sec.
I've got a family, okay? I got two daughters.
I didn't sign up to be an undercover operative.
We'll watch them.
All right? And we'll watch him.
You willing, Mr.
Parker? It's this or multiple felonies.
I didn't know there were drugs in those cattle.
Uh, maybe I did.
I just didn't want to believe it.

- Oh, come on, Billy.
At least that's what I hoped it would be.
Well, we never get nothing out here like this.
I'm here to help.
It's what we do.
Who's the victim, sheriff? He's Bob Chandler.
Did you know him? Everybody up here does -- did.
He was a hell of guy.
I can't believe this.
Any next of kin we need to notify? Mm, Bob was single.
Folks tried setting him up.
We all hoped he'd meet a nice girl one day, but he never did, I guess.
Ran this place for 30 years.
Gun's gone.
Man spends his whole life servicing a community, some damn meth head comes in and kills him for 50 bucks.
You have any idea what kind of vehicle Mr.
Chandler drove? An old tow truck.
It wasn't here when I pulled up.
You think whoever did this took it? Yep.
And his boots.
How's my friend Deputy Dew? Upset.
He knew the victim and liked him.
So did everybody else in the community I spoke to.

Nope.
Most of Mills County is still without internet.
I put out an alert for a male suspect driving the victim's tow truck, shoe size approximately 13.
It's probably a transient, drug-related.
Wants and warrants turned up two parole violators and one missing patient from a psych ward-- female.
No reported felonies in the county in the last two months.
Maybe I should retire there.
Yeah, if you like tumbleweeds, dust storms, and really big grasshoppers.
Whoa.
Those are pretty.
Yeah, but the reason for them isn't.
After a big build-up for my birthday, Dan couldn't make it.
Uh-oh.
Let me guess-- not from Dan.
Jake.
Molly, Everyone's entitled to their privacy, but every time your ex-husband's name comes up, you get a real burr under your saddle-- one that seems to break skin.
It might help to talk to someone about what happened between the two of you.
Not with me, but with somebody.
Why? Because it holds you back.
You think it's affecting my work? No, but if I didn't know better, I'd say you're afraid of something there, and you don't need to be carrying any extra fear around when you're chasing bad guys.
No offense, lieutenant, but you haven't been through a divorce.
You don't know how it feels, What it does to you.
I don't live in Seguin with my wife anymore.
For the last 17 months, I've been staying in a hotel.
You're the only person besides her and my son that knows that.
That's the first part of the story.
Maybe someday I'll get to part two.
Hon? Hey.
Look, I know sorry's not gonna cut it.
I remember that.
That's Lulu's, huh? They grow up so fast, huh? Wait a minute-- Her-- Are you-- Are we gonna-- Oh, baby.
I love you.
I love you so much.
Maybe we'll have a son.
But I need you here.
I know.
Those for me? Maybe.
I am so sorry.
Yeah, right.
I just wish you would've texted an hour earlier so I didn't sit there and wait and worry.
You're right.
The busts went I was up all night.
On that cattle thing? It's more complicated than I expected.
Well, did you nail his ass? Yeah.
And the guy that we nabbed could get us deeper into the cartel.
That's a good thing.
Molly, listen.
I need to take off, just for a while.
Why? You going undercover? No.
Y-you mean from me.
Look, Molly, please.
Okay? You have to trust me on this.
No, Dan.
I don't have to trust you.
But I did.
Good luck with the case.
One touch from your silver tongue Hey.
This the truck you're looking for, Ranger? Yes, sir.
Is it out of gas? That would be my observation, but, uh, I ain't no Ranger.
W-we'll do whatever we can to help, Ranger.
Black smoke from the cracks in your doorway You aware our suspect is armed and dangerous? Snapped a victim's neck with a whip-- barbed whip.
Not only did it break his neck, it punctured his jugular.
An unfamiliar face Looks like the killer headed out on foot.
- This road heads Southeast? - Yes, ma'am.
Every single time an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes We're in the middle of a desert.
How long ago do you figure it rained out here? Uh, a couple months ago? So do either of you have an explanation as to why the earth is saturated here? Runoff? It's not water.
It's human urine.
Naked eye looking out of the chasm What, the guy took a leak, and then he took off? There are boot imprints on each side of the puddle.
Our suspect squatted to pee.
Check all hitchhikers on the main roads.
We're looking for a female, armed and dangerous and most likely headed West.
Yes, ma'am.
Lift the veil when you close your eyes an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes So you look away every single time an unfamiliar face, different shape of eyes I'm looking for someone who killed a man in Mills County-- a service-station owner.
How was he killed? Barbed whip-- broke his neck.
When she was 13, Rae Ann attacked a child, bit off the boy's ear, then swallowed it.
That's gruesome.
Medically, she's a paranoid schizophrenic.
The tribe has another name for her-- Evil.
The tribe? She's an orphan who grew up in foster care on a reservation.
She's half-Indian, half-white.
She believes she's the reincarnation of Peta Nocona.
The Comanche war chief? - You know that? - Yes, sir, I do.
On May 19, 1836, Peta Nocona attacked my family's fort and killed most of my ancestors.
Cynthia Ann Parker was-- Was 9 when she was abducted.
She stayed with the tribe and became Peta Nocona's wife.
- And you're related? - Hell of a coincidence.
Unless it's fate.
Thanks for your time, Doctor.
Evening.
Ranger.
We've been expecting you.
You have? You're looking for Rae Ann Rabago? She was here? How long ago? Please.
She's extremely dangerous.
Any information that you could give me-- White Deer will tell you what you need to know.
White Deer? Please Sit beside me.
Thank you for seeing me.
I can't see you, but you already knew that.
It's why you sit so cautiously.
Seeing people think blind people are fragile, but I can see you in other ways.
You are right to be afraid, Molly Parker.
You know who I am? I know that your fate as a Parker is once again tied to a Comanche.
You need to stop her.
She's going to Mexico.
She wants to spill the blood of white people.
Well, there are plenty of us here.
Why would she go there? Weapons.
They're cheaper across the border.
She wants to buy guns to kill settlers who have come onto our land.
Settlers? Isn't she a little late? She is sick.
Her soul is dark.
Unfortunately, destiny has linked her to you.
Now, be careful.
It Magic.
You have a dark past that you will not release.
The secret you hold frightens you.
To stop Rae Ann, you must go to the bottom of your soul.
If you survive, you will be free, and the shame that you hide from the whole world will finally be released.
Our fugitive is Rae Ann Rabago.
She grew up on this reservation and knows every tree and trail, so it'll be easy for her to move quickly.
We have to assume that she's headed to the border.
One group from here will head Southwest.
Ranger Parker will be going Southeast.
We'll cross-grid until the dogs pick up a scent.
- Are we clear? - Yes, sir.
Make sure to stay on your radios at all times.
The suspect is extremely violent.
If cornered, she will attack, so be careful.
All right, let's go get her.
Come on, mount up.
- I'm going with you? - You got a better offer? No, ma'am.
So, this is how it works, huh? You call, I drop everything.
You should be thanking me we're not having this conversation in a jail cell.
Yeah, you're right.
You hear from him? No, they ain't called yet.
All right, well, when they do, remember, don't be overly confident, and don't demand anything.
Be steady and clear in your request.
The goal is to get one of those generals in there to negotiate with you.
Yeah, well, somehow I don't think that's their usual way of doing business.
That's why you got to be convincing.
You like screwing with people's lives, Dan? Think you brought this on yourself, buddy.
I ain't talking about me.
I'm talking about my sister.
Molly's upset.
I figure it's got something to do with you.
- I can't see her for a while.
- You dumped her? What, because of me, because of this? Well, yeah, because of this.
Look, she can't know about this.
And I don't lie to the people I love, so there you go.
You think she might double-back on us? Could do.
We got to consider all scenarios.
I first saw a ranger when I was 6.
I always kind of wanted to be one.
Well, then, you should pursue it.
Ah, my skill set's pretty limited.
So was mine, till they sent me to Ranger school.
You learn tracking, interviewing, forensic hypnosis, how to shoot everything but a bazooka.
Something wrong? Oh, I was just thinking about that Ranger I told you about.
He came to tell us that my dad had died.
He was shot down by the train tracks.
I'm sorry.
Uh, I got married last year.
First little one's on the way.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I'm gonna name him after my dad.
Maybe he'll be a lawman just like you.
My dad was a sheriff.
But not a Ranger? It's on my bucket list, taking the Ranger exam.
Just got to find the courage.
They got a scent.
Split the dogs.
Get them on the other side of the growth area.
Unleash them if we lose the scent back here.
Yes, ma'am.
Listen to me, Del.
Rae Ann's heading for the river.
If she gets there, we lose her scent.
Dogs'll be burned, so nothing gets past this line.
Nothing gets past you.
- Do I shoot her? - Listen to your gut.
You'll know what to do.
She's in there.
Okay, let's go! Aah! Molly! It's Rae Ann's.
She wanted us to follow the wolf.
She must have ripped it off the bottom of her shirt.
How'd she get it on a wolf? Carefully.
Must mean she's real near.
927 clear to 902? About 30 minutes ago, we lost Rae's scent.
I sent the dogs back.
Officer Trevino and I are continuing on horseback.
We're on the East side of the river, approximately 10 miles West of the starting point.
- 927, copy that, and stay in touch.
- Copy that.
Ranger, I think I got something.
She crossed here.
Del, come on.
We got to move-- now.
- What? - I can't swim.
That's fine.
I need a radio relay anyway.
You stay here by the river.
Knowing I can reach you gives me a world of confidence.
We're gonna get her.
Ranger! I'm coming for you, Rae Ann! Thought you said you couldn't swim.
I can't.
Radio's dead.
Oh, I got my-- My phone.
I don't have my phone.
Damn it.
No signal, anyway.
We don't have any more contact with the outside world.
They know where we crossed.
Hey.
You saved my life.
Mr.
Parker, you forget something? No.
You know, 'cause I see your gringo face, but I don't see your cattle truck anywhere.
Where's our merchandise? You shoot me, you're never gonna see that merchandise.
How 'bout we go to your ranch, huh, take a look around? What, do you think I'm stupid? That's the last place I'd hide your drugs.
You just tell your boss I'm here to talk, that's all.
No, he's not interested.
In increasing his profits? Are you sure about that? What the hell are you talking about? Look, man, I brought in five loads already.
Now, I can triple that without raising any suspicions.
The border guards, they just wave me right through.
I got five generations of cattlemen in my family.
If we can work something out.
Now, you tell your boss I'll be back here at 10:00 tonight.
You know, gringo, you're starting to sound a lot like a narc.
Are you wired? 10:00.
Tonight.
Maybe he doesn't want to meet you.
That's fine, man.
Don't give him my message.
But my bet-- you're the first one that gets shot if those drugs stay missing.
She's covering a lot of ground fast.
How far out do you figure we are from the border? About a day on foot.
But once she gets closer, she'll be on the roads, and any driver could pick her up.
We got to hope she's gonna stop for the night and build a fire.
- Think she will? - No.
What should I be looking for besides footprints? Uh, you see these rocks? They're embedded in their original positions, but they've been slightly pushed away from the dirt that was right up against them.
Yeah.
And this grass-- it's been stepped on.
It's gradually standing itself back up straight again.
You learn this in Ranger school? Yep, and you got to be listening.
Sometimes birds make noise when something invades their territory.
- You nervous? - No.
Your heart's racing.
What's my safe phrase again? "When are you heading back to Mexico?" Yeah, Right.
You gonna give me a gun? You know that's against policy.
Yeah, well, it's against my policy to go into a combat situation without a weapon, so-- My guys are gonna be all over you, okay, if anything goes sideways.
Yeah, question is, are you gonna be there in time? All right, so, look.
Don't rush the transaction.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right? And listen carefully.
You are a businessman making a business deal.
- Got it.
- That's all.
Ready? I never imagined, in a million years, I'd find myself neck-deep with a bunch of drug dealers, and it's all my fault.
Dan, listen to me, man.
If something goes wrong, you know, if something happens, just-- I don't want my family to know the truth, okay? I want my kids to be at peace with who I was, who their daddy was.
So you just-- just tell them something-- something else, anything else, okay? I'll do whatever I can.
Okay.
Billy.
- Nothing's gonna happen tonight, all right? - Yeah.
Good.
Let's do this.
When I saw that fifth Jack and he began to understand and nobody gives a damn how can you stop to comfort every heart Where's his audio? Just getting that music.
From what? His car radio? He's got to be with them by now.
So, you wanted to meet the boss.
Well, here I am.
I came here for a conversation.
So talk.
I want to be your partner, not your damn errand boy.
I can get as many cows as you want across the border.
That's what you want? Yeah.
Are you working for the government? I ain't got no love for the government, and I need money-- that's no secret.
I want to believe you.
But I'm having a hard time.
Think about it.
If I was a snitch, the cops would be in here already.
Maybe.
You satisfied? Actually no.
D.
E.
A.
! D.
E.
A.
! No! No! Come on! Come on! Damn it! What the hell were you thinking, Billy, taking off your wire? I'd be dead right now if I hadn't! You were almost dead anyway.
You tell your prosecutor I'm done.
It's over.
It doesn't work that way.
It does now.
It's like she just disappeared.
We'll find her.
Stay tight.
There! She was just right there.
Can't see.
Where is she?! Stay tight! I got her! I got her! Del! Officer Trevino! Del! Raise your eyes and make them bright May his soul There's lace upon your shoulders And the souls of the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
And light will walk you home tonight Amen.
As though you have no weight upon your back Rest in peace, Ranger.
Make your voice be soft tonight there's gold around your fingers and light will walk you home tonight as though you have no cares upon your mind Where is she, Del? Help me? Lace in light That's blood.
Makes shapes with all your shadows Looks like you got her after all, Trevino.
Lace in light the old queen will hide our sorrows Lay in light makes grace in all your shadows I don't need to know what's going on.
But I need to know this family is safe, Billy.
Are we safe? We're safe.
Damn it.
Lieutenant Zea.
It's Parker.
I'm in close pursuit of Rae Ann.
Molly? Mol-- I can't hear you.
Can you hear me? Where-- Give me your location.
I'm about one mile north of the border fence.
I don't know exactly where.
But if you can triangulate me-- If you can triangulate me, I need more backup.
One mile north-- that's all I got.
What? What the hell? No.
No! I'm not losing.
Where-- Where are you?! I'm not afraid of you! Come on! She's gonna need a doctor.
There's a deputy's body in the forest.
We need to bring him out with an honor guard.
And I want to be the one to tell his wife.
Looks like you could use a doctor, too, Ranger.
Got to get home.
Why? I almost failed out there, Lieutenant.
Well, you faced one hell of an adversary this time.
White Deer told me I could beat anything if I could beat Rae Ann.
I've got one more demon to deal with.
Lu needs a new pair of goggles.
She keeps losing them.
All right.
I'll take her to the sports shop after lunch.
Great, because I have to meet a new manager in town around 3:00, so that would work.
Was I supposed to take the shells out before I scrambled them? I need to tell you something.
Are you all right? Never better.
When I was married to Jake, he beat me.
That's why I left him.
I never told anyone.
I was afraid.
I was ashamed.
I'll kill that son of a bitch.
No.
It's not your battle, it's mine.
Tomorrow, I'm gonna go into court, and I'm gonna tell the world.
I'm not afraid anymore.
