The season is set in Minnesota and North Dakota in the fall of 2019, and follows Dorothy "Dot" Lyon, a seemingly typical Midwestern housewife living in Scandia, Minnesota, whose mysterious past comes back to haunt her after she lands in hot water with the authorities.

In the episode, Dot and Roy face off just as the police and the militia prepare to start a gunfight.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 0.601 million household viewers and gained a 0.11 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received critical acclaim, with critics praising the closure to the storylines, writing, directing, performances, and final scene.
