S2 E36 - Dead To Rights

Pest Control

The police have finally caught up with The Cryptid, but the trio aren’t just going to roll over. As they all search for a way to get Kelly free, the citizens of Norfork dig through the rubble of the Divot, drawing ever closer to what’s buried underneath…

Rabbit entertains. Nammi offers a solution. Kelly faces the force of the law, head on.

(Content Warnings: police, imprisonment in a jail cell, brief mention of loss of limbs, )
