oh goddd Cordell is so freakin hot when he is pulling the gun on Stan Morrison. The black shirt with rolled up sleeves, the cuts on the side of his face, the sweat on his skin, the look of betrayal behind those deep eyes.. mmmm... So delicious

hang on, did they just leave 3 dead men outside the Walker property? Out in the open?

my biases to the colour aside but dear lord, please put Jared in black shirts more often! He looks gorgeous!

if it wasn't for Trey, I would have loved shipping Cordell and Micki. I mean he reached out to her in need.. kinda giving enemies (not enemies enemies but you know) to lovers

Even though Cordell is a bit all over of the place after finding the truth, I do like how he is still aware of his surroundings especially those corrupt officers that tried to stop him

hey the women in the show are well written.. none of them are damsels in distress, except Stella, they made her wee bit annoying. Gotta love Abby, always willing to shoot someone over family

huh, so the Walkers have guns right? I mean I've seen Abby with one. One of those hunting rifles. I'm surprised that Emily didn't carry anything for safety when she went to the border to provide water

i love the gravity they pulled in the scene where Stan confesses to shooting Emily. The pressure of doing it in front of Walker, his family, his kids. In the same spot where he killed her. Damn!

Stan Morrison sending Cordell away on an undercover op in the hopes that Rodeo Kings might just kill him?!

what did Stan Morrison whisper to Cordell after the shootout?

What is that God awful gel that they put in Jared's hair?! I hate it so much

Some of the plot twists that I did like about this show were: Geri's connection to Northside Nation, Stan Morrison's involvement, That the shot was aimed at Walker and not Stan, this creepy surveillance footage

Summary: The Walker family rules Austin with an iron fist. Having Stan Morrison as DPS chair was one of the ways they did that. But he’s betrayed them and they cannot let that stand.

Stan Morrison was one of the luckiest people in Austin. He wasn’t rich or popular. He didn’t have a beautiful wife or loving children. No, he wasn’t lucky for anything like that. His luck came from being in the favor of the Walker family.

It was Austin’s biggest open secret that the Walker family owned the city. It wasn’t terribly obvious and he imagined there was a decent portion of the population that had no idea. But the Walker family had eyes and ears and hands in just about every corner of the city. It was thanks to their support that Stan was able to secure the DPS chair and hold it for so long. In exchange, he dismissed cases that concerned their various enterprises and gave them information on the North Side Nation, their first serious competitor in decades.

He should’ve known their favor wouldn’t last forever.

The moment Liam Walker announced his intentions to run for District Attorney as his opposition, Stan knew his time was up.

Liam didn’t want the position. That’s not how the Walker family operated. Since they first started growing way back in the early days of Texas, the Walkers gained, and kept, their power by not aiming too high on the totem pole. They took positions that granted them enough power and influence to get what they wanted but not so much that people would get suspicious. It was why Bonham never ran for anything higher than president of the local rancher association and Cordell never tried for Captain. He doubted Liam would make any serious attempt at a campaign. The message was clear: they no longer wanted him where he was.

The reason why didn’t matter. Maybe they knew about just how deep in he was with North Side Nation, deeper than they wanted him to be. Maybe they knew about what really happened with Emily. Maybe something deeper was brewing and they needed a scapegoat. Or maybe they just wanted someone newer in his spot. Regardless, his time was limited.

Cordi calling Stella "little lady". Stopppp being cutee!! Just stop! ❤️

Is that llama a nod to 'it's an Alpaca, dumbass'?

Geri was nicer to the kids than she ever was to Cordi

omg the kids are horrible and bratty

i bet that picture that Stan is holding while Liam is eating the bbq actually belongs to Jared and Gen for real. I swear i can see Jared's Sam hair in it

i think this a more of Jared thing than character thing but I love it when he blushes and then scratches the back of his head.. it's too cute!! (See the talking to horse gif)

yup, it's an Alpaca and yup it's a nod to The French Mistake

Ok but why is Cordi treated like a step child??
