Walt has Eamonn O'Neill, a deputy in neighboring Cumberland County, to keep him informed on what is going on there. Eamonn had an involvement with Vic and filled in as an Absaroka deputy after Branch's death. Walt comes across many suspects in the disappearance of Donna and his injuries.
Mathias tightens his hold on Henry, who later manages to renegotiate the arrangement. Convinced Walker is the perpetrator, Walt assaults him and is almost arrested by Cumberland County Sheriff Jim Wilkins (Tom Wopat), who then fires Eamonn. Walt eventually solves Donna's kidnapping.
