Feel any pain? Having contractions?
Get the ER prepped, stat.
But we drown them out
Can we hear the earth
Or are we too loud
Mm silence now
Can you hear the earth
Mm the ocean's crying
And the mountains aren't heard
Paging Dr. Stateman. Dr. Stateman, please.
- Ellie Estevez? - Yancy.
- Hey. Where is she? - Easy. Easy. Easy.
Dan, where the hell is she?
Yancy. Hey, look at me, son. Hey.
No, please don't say--
There's nothing to say.
Not yet.
Kai, get us a doctor?
Sure thing.
- What the hell happened? - She…
wasn't able to tell us much by the time we got there, but she did name Sidney.
Said she pushed her off the front porch and vanished.
Now, I got an APB out on Sid as we speak, okay? Hey, Doc.
Hey there, Yancy.
The blunt trauma from Ellie's fall caused a placental abruption.
And the baby, she's not getting the oxygen she needs at the moment.
We're monitoring her heart rate, but it's looking like Ellie's going into labor.
We're doing all we can. Sit tight.
- Okay, hold. Stop. I need to see her. - Yance, Yance, hey.
She's in good hands.
Hey.
Ellie's a fighter, all right?
She's going to be okay.
I know it.
Their voices try
But we drown them out
Can we hear the earth
Or are we too loud?
Can I get you anything?
This is taking too long. It's a bad sign.
Mm. We don't know that.
You've got to stay positive, okay?
For Ellie.
She finally brought good into my life.
And she's in there right now because of me.
If they're not okay--
Not going to come to that.
Yancy…
Ellie's out of the woods.
They both are.
So, what do you say you go meet your daughter?
Hey.
Hi, Isabella. Hi.
Are you okay?
Fine.
Just a little too drugged up to know which pain's which right now.
You're all that matters now, kid.
Did they find her?
Not yet.
But they will, okay?
You're safe.
Both of you.
Are we?
I'll make sure of it.
Here's your daddy.
Hi.
Hello.
I want all of you to let go of what you think you know about a suspect like this.
'Cause she's one step ahead of you. She's smart.
Could be hiding in plain sight.
Probably changed her appearance. Let's stay on our toes.
- Leave no stone unturned, understand? - Yes, sheriff.
All right. What are we doing standing around? Go.
- What are you doing here? - Came to bail my brother out.
Huh. That's quite the reversal, ain't it?
Six months ago, Lucas was a straight-A student.
Ivy Leagues lining up. Coming here to bail your ass out.
Everything you touch turns to shit.
- Yeah. Well, I'm trying to change that. - Yeah?
How?
By moving in on your brother's girlfriend?
Going to let me by or not?
I'd love nothing more than to put you on a ventilator.
But then I think of Lauren.
All alone. Two parents behind bars.
I'm tired of fighting with you, Kit.
Shit.
I'm tired across the board.
The hell is this?
It's a buddy of mine.
He's got a ranch in Wyoming. He's done well for himself there.
Now I put a call in to him. He said he'd be happy to have you.
Let you start over.
Someplace new.
Now, I never thought I'd be asking you for a favor, but here I am.
You do right by my little girl
and by your baby brother.
Am I making myself clear?
Quinn!
I just found out. Is she okay?
Yeah, she's okay. They both are.
What about you?
Right.
I figured I'd grab things from her place for her. Don't know what else I could do.
Yancy's a mess. He's blaming himself.
Thanks.
He told me about the grift.
Don't blame yourself too.
It was too risky.
You couldn't have known how this would all turn out.
- You couldn't. - I'm just happy she and her baby are okay.
Yeah, me too.
I pushed you away because I was scared.
No, you were right to.
You're not listening.
Goddammit, Quinn.
You can't just…
for months, hammer it into my head
that we're not meant to be and then go back on that.
I am listening.
For the first time, finally, I'm listening.
And maybe…
…maybe now you have to do the same.
Hey.
- Hi. - She's asking for you.
- Hey. - Yeah.
- Happy everybody's okay. - Thank you, thank you.
Tell me something good.
Well…
We smashed our projections.
- Yeah. - Turns out people love a good time.
An amazing, well-organized and expertly produced time.
Well…
Mary Lou's coming to Gracie's today to talk about next year's festival.
- Already? - Mm-hm.
Hotels and rentals are full. Restaurants are booked. We gave Ransom a lifeline.
I just gotta figure out how to keep it going.
If anyone can… it's you.
How are you doing?
I'm fine.
We're fine.
Hey.
It's okay to not be.
Hey…
I was really scared.
Yeah.
Not so much for me, but…
For her.
Oh, my mama bear.
Happens fast, huh?
I thought I knew who I was.
What I wanted out of life.
But the second they put that tiny little being right here…
Mmm.
I suddenly knew the meaning of it.
Of my life.
It took almost losing her to see that.
She's so lucky to have you.
We all are.
Is now a good time?
Yes. Come in.
Okay.
- Come meet Isabella. - Oh my gosh.
Ohhh.
She's so perfect, Ellie.
Hi, baby.
Go on, say it.
Say what?
There goes three weeks' wages.
How many times you do this for me?
I just want to know why you left a roach in your jacket. Amateur hour.
It was a mistake. It was from…
- I'm just ready to be home. - Ah, so you're coming home, finally.
No other option. No girlfriend.
No scholarship money with a potential drug conviction.
- Get your fucking hands off me. - Hey.
- How could you do that? You're my brother! - Stop, Lucas, stop!
I want to make this right, Luke.
I swear, I want to make this right. I'm--
And do what?
Nothing.
Let's just get you home.
Shower, some sleep.
I slept with Ashley.
Shit.
- It's all right. - No, it's not all right.
I have to tell Lauren.
I don't know what to do, I--
Well, look, you can just be there for her any way that you can.
Make sure Gracie's keeps running while she's recovering.
I just cannot believe this happened.
This…
This is what happens when you get involved with the wrong people.
I'll see you.
Bye, Dad.
Hi.
How's Ellie?
Uh, she's fine, uh…
She'll be fine. It just puts things into perspective.
Yeah.
I fucked up.
I really fucked up--
I slept with Ashley.
If it breaks my heart
I'm sorry.
But runs up my mind
I'll take it as a win
It was a mistake. We both made a mistake. Lauren, please…
You're not going to talk to me?
Doing the best I can
How are they?
- They're gonna be okay. - I was so damn worried.
I feel like hell.
You and me both, pal.
That was a hell of a thing you did.
Can't get my mind wrapped around it.
I was walking into an eight-million-dollar fuck up.
Doesn't get dumber than that. You had me dead to rights with the board.
How did you not pull that trigger?
When I came back from seeing Levi,
and you were out there in that bluff wishing Grandpa could see you…
There was a pain in your eyes that…
I'll never unsee.
We've been at odds for so long, that I don't remember the last time
we saw eye to eye on anything.
I mean, do you?
No.
I don't want to be sitting out on a horse one day… on a cliff.
Full of regret.
I've done that once before with Randall and I'm not gonna do it again.
Should be you.
Or should have been.
What are you saying?
What I'm saying is when we go to that board vote tomorrow,
we're gonna tell them what it is.
You at the helm of the Double K.
Are you sure?
I'm sitting here wiping tears off my cheeks, you dumbass.
Think I'm joking?
I love you, son.
I love you too, you old goat.
You holding up okay?
Uh, no, but, you know,
there's eight hungry tables and no time to wallow, so…
Can't wallow.
Here you go, fellas.
Damn, girl.
I'm not gonna blow smoke about what a good job you did, but you did.
Acts are already chomping at the bit to be a part of next year's lineup.
- You turned this around. - Well, that was the hope.
Before we talk about next year's festival, I need you to introduce me
to whoever is behind this.
Are you kidding me?
I never kid when it comes to business.
I need an album cover for an up-and-comer that I'm launching.
This right here, fits the bill.
What I love about your work is the heart.
You can really feel that you love this place, this town…
It's complicated.
Honey, it's always complicated when it's your hometown.
It's a place that taught you love and pain.
Thank you.
And thank you.
Yeah, uh, I guess I'm gonna go work on some ideas.
We have 364 days to turn this thing into something great.
- Can we not just enjoy the moment? - No!
We need time and infrastructure.
Need a permanent location that can host more people.
More people means more ticket sales.
More ticket sales means more accommodations.
I was thinking the exact same thing. And I think I have a solution.
The Lone Star?
That's your solution?
Been out of commission for decades.
Yeah, good reason.
Oh…
The place is a shithole.
Oh, but it's a shithole with promise.
Okay, keep talking.
You convert the restaurant and then you reimagine the hotel rooms,
all three floors of them, because in the back--
There's that big old theater.
You turn it into the Ryman.
There's so much space for the festival next year.
And it's all for sale.
Oof! Including the bear.
I don't know.
Could be risky.
Uh, but if it works, it could be really smart.
A really smart investment that I would need a strong financial partner for.
What do you say?
Still no sign of her?
Got every deputy on patrol looking. In four neighboring counties, too.
No luck yet. She's in the wind.
Well, she can't run forever. All roads lead straight to prison.
Now that we're able to get Ellie's statement, there's a bit of a,
let's say, gray area.
Elle wasn't pushed. She backed off the porch.
- Because she was threatened. - We know. We agree.
Sidney should be behind bars, but she's a slithery one. She could walk.
What about the situation in New Orleans? You said she's wanted.
Person of interest. Not wanted.
Or else I'd have cuffed her a week ago.
We will get closure on this.
I just can't make promises about what happens to your ex after.
Look,
we will find her.
You look pretty out here in the light.
Still got it.
Yeah, you do.
Mm.
Festival went off without a hitch.
Wish you would have been there.
I was.
It was spectacular.
Stood in the back like I used to at your recitals.
I was nervous.
Nervous and ashamed.
Ashamed?
Of what I'm asking of you.
Oh. Don't be.
We were in the black before we even counted extra ticket sales.
My word.
I'm gonna invest the money back into Ransom.
I'm gonna buy Maeve's, the Lone Star.
This town isn't dying, Mom.
Not anymore.
Ransom's gonna thrive.
And so are you.
I just got off the phone with the realtor.
She has an interested buyer for the farm, ready to make an offer.
That you're gonna accept.
It's enough to cover the cost of the new house.
Encinitas.
It's right on the water.
- Oh, honey, I… I can't-- - You can, and you will.
It's time for you to start chasing your dreams, Mom.
Quinnie…
Angie tells me Staten came through for you. And them some.
Are you two…
No.
No, that ship finally sailed for the last time.
Look, Freddie…
I know I owe you that 80K.
All right, but… the job, it went sideways.
But just…
Give me a little time. I'm good for it.
You have my word.
I don't want the money.
See, I took those readings to a buddy of mine.
Might've fooled old Sam Kirkland, but you can't trick me.
That 80K?
Consider it seed money.
The hell are you talking about?
You really don't know, do you?
- You're sitting on something big, boy. - I am?
What's that?
- Oil. - Oil.
Liquid gold.
You and me, we're about to be rich.
Stupid rich.
Sidney?
Wait, stop!
Stop her! She's taking my baby!
I'm so sorry.
No, no, no, it's okay. I was just taking her for a bath.
- I thought you were someone else. - It's okay.
I just… I didn't want to wake you.
You were sleeping so peacefully.
Thank you. I'm sorry.
It's…
Hi.
Come here.
Are you all right, honey?
No.
I don't think I am.
Hi.
- This feels familiar? - Yeah.
Um…
Old time's sake?
Old time's sake.
I mean, I know I'm not supposed to be excited about anything
with everything going on with Lucas and Ellie,
- but… - You're about to create an album cover?
I know. I know.
I can't think of anything more exciting than that.
I mean, I was talking about us.
Us?
I don't think I can do this.
What?
I've just been thinking… about everything.
- Kit… - Um…
It was a dream, Laur.
You don't mean that. That's--
The last time we sat here…
I told you we were holding Lucas back.
I didn't see it then.
- What he saw in you. - Yeah.
You're gonna go so far.
Just like he is.
- Just… - I can't get in the way of that.
It's just that's bullshit. Okay? It's bullshit.
If you don't care about me, just say that so we don't have to do this thing where…
I care more than you understand.
Don't do this.
It's why I have to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm here.
It's about damn time.
It's cold.
Please come in, Claire.
So, what's on your mind, Claire?
True love.
Okay.
I've been chasing that dream since I was…15 years old.
When you chase something that long and don't find it,
there's a darkness that takes its place.
It hardens you, makes you bitter.
Makes you wonder if true love ever existed in the first place.
Maybe it doesn't.
It does.
I see it now.
I see it.
In my daughter's face.
And yours.
It's too late.
Don't give me that. It's a cop out.
You're the one that turned me away all those years ago,
told me I wasn't good enough for her.
I made a mistake. I blew it. Okay?
Well, it's not just you, Claire.
Everyone that cares about her says the same thing.
Since when does Staten Kirkland give two shits about what anybody else has to say?
Love is a canyon.
Impossible to cross.
Along the way, you stumble, fall.
Convince yourself you'll never make it to the other side.
But once you do…
It's damn near breathtaking.
I came here
to tell you that.
Get yourself across that canyon.
Meet my girl on the other side.
Claire…
Hold on a second.
…several floors.
And then the theater's in the…
- Here comes the drama. - Hm?
- With the bags, really, Mama? - Don't come at me, Ang.
I've got a flight to catch, and I'm trying to do the right thing.
Oh, God, what's this?
- Parting gift. - What am I, chopped liver?
I left a necklace for you at the house.
It's very expensive.
I love you.
You too.
I love you.
Oh, Mom.
I love you.
I've made a lot of mistakes in my life.
But you two… are the best thing I have ever done.
Oh, shit. Don't start.
Don't start.
Come visit, please.
- Okay. - Say it.
We'll come visit.
- Think she'll be all right? - Yeah.
I think she has a good chapter ahead.
Oh. Starting right now.
Hey.
Have you ever been to Encinitas, Andrews?
No, I can't say that I have.
Do you like warm sand, salty air?
An experienced woman?
Yes, ma'am. Yes, I do.
As a matter of fact.
Take some time off. Okay?
Oh.
Still got it.
- Claire, Claire, Claire. - She just can't help herself, can she?
I'm going to be honest. I kind of love it.
Yeah. Hm.
Well… Another round? Toast to Mama?
- Yeah, let's do it. - Mm-hm.
I'm a bedroom window pane
Getting pelted by the rain
I'm the roof over your head
So you can get some rest
Knowing everything's okay
A harbor from the waves
A levee that won't break
A road to higher ground
Never let you down
Yeah, everything's okay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
- It's all I know - Ooh ooh ooh ooh
How to do
I'll be there for you
When you have a broken heart
The world just fell apart
No need to call on me
You know where I'll be
Yeah, I've been there from the start
Mmm
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
- Mm mm mm - Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's all I know
How to do
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for
Hi.
I made it.
Uh, it only took you 30 years.
You know, I think you were right about fate.
I think it kept us apart for a reason.
You needed to go off to New York.
You needed other loves, other lives.
Amalah and Randall…
I don't regret a single moment of my life with them.
Not even the pain of losing them.
I think that
everything that happened
I believe is fate.
Fate was making us…
ready for each other.
That's really beautiful.
Yeah.
I practiced that in front of the mirror.
Now shut up and kiss me.
Yes, ma'am.
Everything's okay
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's all
I know
How to do
I'll be there for you
Hey, you.
Hey you.
What changed your mind?
Your mother, oddly enough.
She talked some sense into me.
- Words I never thought I'd hear. - Well, you may never hear again.
You know, I spent so many mornings out here,
all alone, just… just thinking about you.
And now I'm here.
And now you're here.
Mm, mm.
Careful what you wish for.
I just sold the farm and I kind of like the place.
You sold the farm?
Mm-hm.
You know, someone once told me that
home isn't a place, it's a person.
- I like that. - Yeah, I do too.
I think you're my person.
Oh, you think so?
I know so.
Well, it's about damn time.
I'm clocking out, boss.
Hey.
- What's going on with you? - I'm almost through reseeding--
I'm not talking about work. I'm talking about Lauren.
Uh…
She doesn't want me anymore. What do you want me to say?
Well, you say what you want.
- She wants my brother? - Yeah, it's a pickle, ain't it?
Yeah.
So what do you want?
I want her.
- She's all I ever wanted. - Well, then,
if she wants to run, you let her run.
That's hard to hear, but
trust me, I've been there.
- I just can't stop thinking about her. - Who says you have to?
Think about her for a second, then you let her go.
If you do that, there's a good chance she'll come back around.
You got that board vote tonight, huh?
Yes, I do.
- I'll be pulling for you. - Yeah, I know you will.
All right, go on now, get.
Hey, Staten.
Thank you.
Ah, it's just a bunch of hot air.
Ah, kiddo.
Hey. Talk to me.
I saw it.
That thing that…
feeling that everyone chases.
And now it's gone.
You're gonna be okay, sweetheart. You're gonna be okay.
It's not Lucas, Dad.
Yeah, I know it isn't.
I know it seems impossible right now, but I know how you feel.
But, baby, Kit…
After what he's done to this family…
If you want him to be happy…
If you want to be happy…
You gotta let him go.
What do you mean… let him go?
Sorry, I think I got the wrong room. I thought this was Ellie Estevez.
Oh, it was. Uh, you just missed her.
Self-discharged about an hour ago.
What's going on?
I'm shipping out.
- Catching a bus for a job in Wyoming. - When you coming home?
I'm not.
Gonna miss you, kid.
We can work this out, man. Uh…
- We can fix this. - This is fixing it.
- What if I said I didn't want you to? - You'd be lying.
Maybe I'll come back for Christmas.
I'm gonna miss you, Kit.
He's not here.
You know, I've tried…
So hard…
to be what you needed.
But I really messed up too, Laur.
I have to reckon with that.
Are we going to be okay?
Not right now.
But maybe someday.
Someday.
I love you, Lucas Russell.
I love you, too.
Hey, Laur?
He's catching a bus.
Thank you.
Kit!
Don't! Don't go.
- I have to. - Why?
There's nothing good in me.
What?
I'm not letting you go, okay?
Do you hear me?
I'm not letting you go.
- Hey. Is everything okay? She-- - She's okay.
Just had a bit of a scare. Asked me to keep watch for the night.
You should talk to her.
Why didn't you call me?
Why'd you come here? I, I thought we were moving into the ranch house.
I don't feel safe.
Not there. Not while Sidney's still around.
I have to protect her.
Okay, yeah. Then… we'll stay here.
Okay? We can stay here as long as you want. That's fine, uh…
And I will protect… her. I'll protect you. You know that, right?
And what if you're the thing she needs protecting from?
What do I do then?
Her father?
Well, not you, but
the darkness that follows you.
Sidney hurt me.
She hurt Isabella because she wanted to hurt you.
Elle, look, I, I know that you're freaked out
and scared, okay? But that is over.
She's gone. Listen, listen.
There's oil.
Okay? Cap didn't make a bad investment after all and
Freddy ran it by his guy. We might be sitting on millions, okay?
- If we are-- - Just stop, okay? Stop!
- But-- - There is no "but."
Sidney, Freddy, oil, it's all danger, Yancy.
And if it were just me, fine.
I can take it. I, I would be willing to risk all the darkness. But now…
Her?
I just don't think I can do this.
What are you saying to me right now?
You really think that she's better off without me?
Are you actually saying that?
Everything okay in here?
No, Kai, it's not!
It's fine.
You sure?
- We're good. - Hey, I'm right here.
Elle… Elle, just…
- We can talk this through, all right? - You should leave.
Elle, talk to me.
Please.
You need to leave.
Ellie, don't do this, okay?
Please.
Just go.
Shhh. Mommy's here.
She just needs a little time, that's all.
Don't fucking tell me what she needs.
Loving this, huh?
No. I'm not.
But you need to go.
Just go.
Walk away.
I've got a shoulder You can lean on
Yeah, I've got a shoulder You can lean on
Let me be your lighthouse
Let me lead you home
Somewhere you will never
Ever be alone
Let me be your home
Home
What are you doing here?
Well, it's a big night. I just… I just wanted to be here for you.
Well, wanted to be here with you.
Well, it's, it's freezing out. You could have waited inside, Quinn.
Well, I've been busted for breaking and entering before, so…
Which reminds me.
- What's that? - It's a key.
- I can see that. - To the Double K.
You gotta live somewhere, right?
Let me be your home
What do you say we start forever, right now?
Let me be your home
Let me be your lighthouse
Forever.
Somewhere you will never
Ever be alone
Let me be your home, home
