Marshals put a spotlight on the real-life plight of Indigenous families searching for missing women and girls in Season 1 Episode 5, which aired on Sunday, March 29, on CBS. Tate Dutton (Brecken Merrill) called it a fitting way to honor his late mother, Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille), who fought to find a missing Indigenous woman and child in Yellowstone Season 3 Episode 6 and remained an advocate for this cause in the time after. This episode gave an update on Monica’s advocacy in the final months of her life. As revealed in the series premiere, Monica died of cancer before the plot of Marshals began. Warning: Spoilers for Marshals Season 1 Episode 5 ahead.

Tate was at a Wyoming gas station with Kayce (Luke Grimes) when he saw a friend from the Broken Rock reservation, Hailey, for the first time in a long time. There was something suspicious about the teenager being there, and Kayce noticed right away. He brought up the issue to his fellow Marshals at work, which immediately sent Miles (Tatanka Means) into action. Belle (Arielle Kebbel) and Andrea (Ash Santos) wanted to help. Team leader Cal (Logan Marshall-Green) wouldn’t allow it, because the U.S. Marshals aren’t supposed to interfere with criminal activity on the reservation being investigated by Broken Rock’s local police force.
