Royal claims he doesn’t know, and Perry swiftly replies, teary-eyed, “I don’t believe you,” before walking away. Was she afraid of someone in the family, or more specifically, was it Royal? Royal isn’t above killing or covering up murders, so it’s not that wild of a theory.Īfter turning himself in for killing Trevor, Perry questions his father about Rebecca’s disappearance. What was Rebecca hiding from, or better yet, who? Perry and Rebecca argued about her displeasure with ranch life, which Amy confirms while eating ice cream in the finale episode. Rebecca explains she had to “hide” and tells Amy she’ll explain “everything” but that she has to come with her, and the two leave into the night. One of the biggest unknowns in a show stuffed with unknowns was the whereabouts of Perry’s missing wife, Rebecca, who miraculously returns under to whisk little Amy away-sending Cecilia into a faith-extinguishing breakdown at Rhett’s bull riding competition. Perry brandishes a photo from his wallet, and Autumn's wide-eyed facial expression suggests she recognizes Rebecca and connects the dots about her “lost” lineage. When Perry discovers Autumn in the woods, she asks to see a picture of Rebecca. Awestruck, Autumn realizes that she’s communicating with a younger version of herself. When Autumn first meets Amy hiking, she is not immediately sure who she is until Amy says that she's Royal’s granddaughter. Royal quickly puts everything together and realizes the person he’s been trying to kill this whole time is actually an older version of his granddaughter Amy from a future timeline. In the finale, Autumn, having gone off her medication, attempts to murder Royal in a crazed shoot-out and car chase that ends with a bullet through Billy’s ( Noah Reid) neck, rolling his truck and wounding Autumn.īefore pumping her full of lead, Royal notices a peculiar scar on the upper quadrant of her forehead, matching the same one Royal accidentally caused when he slammed Perry into a picture frame, splashing Amy with sharp glass. As secret eats away at him and his commonsense, Royal tries to kill Autumn by leaving her in the woods to die. Autumn torments Royal after catching him disposing of the body into the void. These time travelers include Royal’s two missing cows, Autumn ( Imogen Poots), the enigmatic mastodon, the stampeding bison herd, and countless other missing persons, including Perry's wife, Rebecca ( Kristen Connolley), and, presumably, Amy.Īutumn explains to Royal that she was in an accident when she was a kid and woke up in Jackson knowing only her “name.” After shoving Royal into the hole at the end of the pilot, Autumn seems generally surprised and intrigued by Royal’s return, perplexed even, and demands to know what he’s seen. Still, it’s safe to assume that the “void” is a “tear” in time, providing Royal, and anyone who traverses it, passage through time, purposely or accidentally. Royal descends into the portal, falling forward in time, before being spit out into the 1960s, but the mysterious hole in the west pasture is never explicitly explained. Scared and unable to face his mother and sister, Royal runs to evade the consequences of his mistake, where he first stumbles upon the mysterious wormhole situated in the west pasture, which appears to materialize upon his arrival. At the tail-end of Episode 7, Royal admits to Perry that when he was “eight,” he ran away after accidentally killing his father–in the late 1800s. Since the emergence of the strange “void” in his west pasture, the Abbott patriarch begins to unravel before finally coming clean about his elusive youth.
