Tulsa King (Recap) | Back in the Saddle (S2 E1)

by Greg Wheeler for The Review Geek

Episode 1 of Tulsa King season 2 starts with Dwight behind bars. He speaks to a fellow suited guy called Harlan and explains how the rules of the joint works. You see, behind bars, you need to show that you’re not just going to roll over and take it. You need to fight back and send a message. And a perfect example of that is the loudmouth across the cell from them, running his mouth.

Dwight knocks the guy out with a single punch and tells Harlan that given he has money and connections, he could probably hire someone to help him out. Dwight has taken a particular interest in this guy because he managed to scam the government out of millions thanks to his wind farm.

Meanwhile, the rest of the group try to work out how to handle this Dwight mess. Bodhi believes they need a contingency plan, including a lawyer. In court, Dwight pleads not guilty but his bail amount is set at 3 million dollars, which is very steep. However, Tina steps up and puts her house as collateral to get him out. When Stacy finds out though, she is not happy. She’s jittery and tries to get a transfer.

On the way home, Tyson shows off his great driving again, losing the tail and eventually making it back home, where Goodie relinquishes his very brief stint as the interim boss.

There’s a new guy in the bar too, a man by the name of Bigfoot. Dwight agrees to hire him onboard and they drink to their newfound partnership. As for Dwight though, he’s thinking bigger now. After talking to Harlan about his scam, he thinks they could go straight-ish and act like politicians; bending the rules to fit them while seeming to be doing the right thing. The others agree and it seems like they’re on.
