Walker Independence Episode 1 Recap
Given how rough-and-tumble the Wild West was, it makes sense that the Walker Independence series opener opens with a tragic slip-up in a wagon traveling through the West. Abigail Collins, a well-educated Bostonian (Katherine McNamara), is introduced to us in the Walker prequel spinoff. She is traveling with her police husband Liam to the thriving frontier town of Independence, Texas. Both of them are seeking a new beginning far from Boston’s corruption. But Liam, who will take over as Independence’s new sheriff, gives Abby the impression that he is hiding something. She could be onto something since just a few minutes later, their wagon is ambushed. “That’s my sole secret,” he replies softly. Abby’s husband is shot by an unidentified man, who also injures her. An Apache tribe finds Abby after she wanders off and falls in a field, saves her, and gives her the nickname Walks in Tall Grass, opening the path for her to later adopt the name Abigail Walker.
Calian (Justin Johnson Cortez), an Apache, drags Abby to town but stays back because he fears the townsfolk won’t like seeing an Apache with a white lady. Hoyt Rawlins (Matt Barr), as Abby wanders through Independence, actually runs into her. He’s just arrived from another town where he pretended to be a pastor and conned several people in addition to sleeping with one man’s wife. Hoyt responds, “If that makes you feel any better, she wasn’t the only one. He does not feel any better as a result.) Hoyt then took the man’s horse, which he named Cordell, to further infuriate the jurors.
When Abby asks Hoyt what kind of man drinks during the day, it goes without saying that he does not have the finest first impression. In addition, he steals her wedding band, which Abby discovers when she meets the compassionate Deputy Augustus (Philemon Chambers) and the new sheriff Tom Davidson (Greg Hovanessian), who took over after her husband skipped work. When Abby finds that Davidson killed her husband, she is shocked. She wants Hoyt to help her kill Davidson after observing his character during a gun standoff, but he declines to take that chance. At the large welcoming party for Davidson that evening, she seizes his weapon and gets ready to carry out the task herself. But Hoyt stops her, and the bullet just misses Davidson’s jacket. Hoyt discloses that the sheriff has been stealing livestock and purchasing up land all across the town while being a Boston native.
Abby returns with Hoyt to the scene of her husband’s death, where the group buries his remains with Calian’s assistance. Abby explains to Hoyt and Calian that she is staying in Independence to pursue justice rather than retaliation. Davidson must be halted in order for this to never happen again. Abby also makes friends with Kate Carver (Katie Findlay) and Kai (Lawrence Kao) elsewhere in the pilot. Kai is a Chinese immigrant who is opening his own laundry/restaurant business, while Kate is a chatty burlesque dancer who serves for dance hotel owner Hagan (Mark Sheppard). It appears as though Kai has a thing for Kate, or is he just wary of her because she could be a spy? As the audience learns, Kate is telegraphing Allan Pinkerton about the events in the town. Lucia Reyes (Gabriela Quezada), the rancher’s daughter who is having an affair with Hoyt, completes the group.
