Plot[]

Wendy's brother Ben is teaching when students share a classmate's photo, so he throws their phones into a woodchipper, then fights with its operator. Marty and Ruth apologize to Frank Sr. and agree to a larger percentage of casino profits as a peace offering.

Helen and her daughter Erin move to the Ozarks for the summer, but Gene insists their son Seth stay with him. Marty and Wendy make an offer to Carl and Anita Knarlson for their Big Muddy casino in St. Joseph, but Marty secretly talks Carl into declining. Ben arrives for an extended visit. Navarro calls Wendy to ask whether his maid's accident was a bad omen and is appreciative when she placates his superstitions.

Darlene talks to dead Jacob about how angry she was after seeing Wendy and Wyatt admits he also talks to his dead father, after which he is invited to move into Ash's old cabin.

Kansas City mobsters sneak onto the competing casino to sabotage their Memorial Day fireworks, causing a massive fire. This sabotage gives the Big Muddy the break they needed to stay ahead in their rivalry and the Knarlsons' back out of Wendy and Helen's revised offer. Subsequently, Ruth and Wendy rig the Big Muddy's slot machines for constant payouts, forcing the Knarlsons to sell. Helen has Gene beaten. Trevor informs Marty that due to the purchase of another casino, the FBI will audit all Byrde businesses.
