The fourth episode of Tulsa King season 3 commences with Dwight's fury as the crew has lost a staggering 150 million dollars and, more importantly, the barrels of 50. He reminds them all that they are a family and must work together to get things back on track. Tyson is left to bear the brunt of this setback, tasked with personally fixing the mess and retrieving the barrels. Even Tyson's father chastises him, imparting a life lesson about how he turned his own life around, urging his son to do the same. It seems to work, and the two of them collaborate to right the wrongs from the previous episode.
Amidst this chaos, Bill arrives at the warehouse and is shocked to discover that the booze is gone. However, he's in the fight with them given his stake in the distillery business, of course. If he needed any more convincing, Dwight also reveals that a couple of Bill's guys were taken out by Dunmire's gang.
Bill wants to go all-guns-blazing, but Dwight encourages him to play it smart. He wants to track down the men who have moved the gear and make life difficult for Dunmire. Unfortunately, Dunmire is one scary dude, and the driver isn't budging, even with Bill pointing a gun at him. Instead, he winds up with a bullet in his head when he tries to draw on Bill.
Bodhi, on the other hand, has a bit more luck. He hacks into Dunmire's system, cancels orders, reroutes shipments, and generally causes a ruckus. Comically, he actually ends up sending 100 cases of stolen Dunmire booze to the nursing home.
Meanwhile, Ray learns about Dwight's distillery plans and wants to move in and make a cut of this. He's not the only one making waves, though. Alongside Musso ringing and warning Dwight not to lose focus on his other job, Margaret approaches Thresher.
Cal Thresher's campaign is struggling to gain traction, and his "bachelor" persona is not resonating with the audience as intended. Margaret senses this and makes a proposition to Cal, offering to help him improve his poll numbers in exchange for selling back his share of the ranch. She's essentially handing him the keys to the governor's mansion, and it's a tempting offer. While Dwight is initially hesitant, he can see why this is important to Margaret and agrees to let her handle it, although he'll keep an eye on her, of course.
As the Dunmires' business starts to suffer, Cole becomes increasingly desperate for his father's affection and approval. His plea for the 50 barrels is a clear indication of this. He admits that he's done all of this for his father and wants him to join him at the warehouse for a celebratory drink. Eventually, the father does so and sees the gear for himself. However, instead of thanking Cole after tasting the bourbon, he only thanks God, much to Cole's chagrin.
While the 50 barrels are being moved, Tyson and his dad go on a stakeout together. Interestingly, they spot the stripper Tyson likes driving Cole's truck. She actually leads them right to the location of the barrels holding the 50 when they tail her from behind.
Dwight and his crew show up and devise a plan to get the booze back. They set up a diversion and manage to hold Cole up at gunpoint. Jeremiah eventually concedes, although it does seem like he's happy for Cole to be in danger for a few moments. The gang takes off with their barrels.
Unfortunately, Ray reaches out to Bill that night while he's driving the truck of booze, and his proposition is clear: he wants to use Bill and work with him to undermine Dwight.
