A scene from “Unfinished Business”

Sheriff Spencer: [after Jessica exposes him as the murderer] Look, I never meant to kill anybody. Whіtеy'd been acting suspicious, so I followed him out to the desert. And when I saw him knock Tiny unconscious over the money, I moved in.

George Creech: And decided to get rich for yourself.

Sheriff Spencer: No, no, no, it wasn't like that exactly. I mean, there was a moment when I could have arrested Whіtеy. And then he pulled his knife and lunged at me. Made my bullet miss. I had to fight him for the damn knife. Guess Whіtеy was reading my mind. He was thinking if I had money like that, I wouldn't lose Deena. It was the only way I could afford to leave Gila Junction and go with her.
