What Is “Falling Sky” About?
The Marshals are assigned to track three Broken Rock residents accused of shooting down a military test drone. The crash kills a member of the community, raising tensions between federal authorities and tribal leadership as the investigation moves forward.
The assignment places the team in a situation where the search for suspects unfolds alongside the community’s loss. The official preview identifies the residents as accused; it does not reveal who is responsible for bringing down the drone or how the confrontation between authorities and tribal leadership will be resolved.
“Falling Sky” was written by Tom Mularz & Kseniya Melnik and directed by Gonzalo Amat.
Kayce Tries to Reach Tate
While the investigation brings pressure at work, Kayce has concerns at home. He worries about Tate’s mental state and tries new approaches to connecting with his son.
That father-son thread gives “Falling Sky” a personal story alongside its federal case. The synopsis leaves Kayce’s specific methods undisclosed, keeping the focus on his effort to understand Tate rather than revealing the outcome before the episode airs.
