Around the next day, Sarah ends up going on a heist job with Lenny Summers, who Sarah gets along well with. The two find a large abandoned house in a swamp being overrun by a gang named Levine Raiders. Sarah and Lenny pertake a long gunfight which they obviously win. And they bring back a bunch of new guns, Sarah takes a Bolt Action rifle for herself, replacing her Repeater Carbine for it.
Once returning to the camp though Sarah finds Sadie arguing with Pearson, to the point she pulls a knife on him threatening to cut him open over a minor sexist comment that shouldn't even be a big deal. Sarah manages to break them apart and brings Sadie on a shopping trip in Rhodes. Sadie wants to rob the store but Sarah says they are simply customers today, no guns. Sadie groans annoyedly.
However, once outside Sarah finds someone trapped in the basement of the gunsmith and tells Sadie they are gonna rob someone. And they force the gunsmith to bring them to the basement, Sarah frees the hostage, and lets him escape. However, the gunsmith breaks down and reveals that his real son died in a tragic accident when he was showing him to shoot a rifle (the blowback from the rifle caused his son to get thrown into the river where he was washed away) and he was keeping the man prisoner and having him dress as his son out of guilt for his son's accidental death. The prisoner refuses to be so sympathetic. And neither does Sadie Adler, who actually goes upstairs and empties out the register. Sarah feels weird about it, but doesn't stop her.
Worse still as the ladies ride back, the Levine Raiders attempt to rob them, recognizing Sarah Amber. Sarah tries to defuse the situation peacefully, but unexpectedly Sadie pulls out her Cattleman and begins a gunfight against them, which the girls quickly win and ride back. On the bright side, Sadie does finally start becoming more friendly and open to her cousin.
The girls bring the stagewagon of food and other supplies back to Pearson. Sarah goes over to her and Sadie's tent and takes a nap. Walking by Javier punching a drunk Micah in the face, after he made racist jokes about Mexico.
Several weeks go bye. I'll skip past the whole subplot about the two secret lovers between a Grey boy and Braithwaite girl.
Sarah goes on a mission with Hosea Matthews. Who is almost like a father to her, an effect he has on everyone it seems. They go to the Braithwaite house and meet Catherine Braithweight, the leader of the gang. A stuck up rich snob, as are her two hillbilly sons. Who convinces Hosea and Sarah to give away all the moonshine Leigh Grey gave them for free. Knowing Sheriff Grey wouldn't take kindly to this.
Hosea knows these two, and disguises them as traveling con-artists. Even making Sarah a mute disabled person, that still serves drinks. Sarah groans annoyedly but does it anyway.
This turns into a party at the Saloon. But the Raiders come out, turns out the moonshine was there. And unsurprisingly another gunfight ensues. But once more Sarah and her ally manage to survive the day. Sarah commenting there can't many left of those Raiders, Hosea agrees.
Next Sarah, Arthur and Sean Macquire are ordered by Catherine to burn down all of Leigh Grey's tobacco fields. Which they do.
Even though the 3 barely make it out of the resulting gunfight alive. Sarah, being Sarah, still found fun from the thrill of the fight.. One of the only things she and Micah have in common.
On a seperate mission Micah and Dutch meet up with Colm O'Driscoll at a peace offering. It's revealed Colm O'Driscoll killed Dutch's former lover and Dutch killed Colm's brother.
However. This reveals to be a trap. Arthur, who watched over them with a sniper, is captured by the O'Driscolls.
Arthur is shot, beaten up, and hung upside down in a prison. Colm offers Arthur a place with them for more money, but Arthur refuses.
Colm's very short appearance shows him to be just as sadistic and creepy as Dutch claims him to be. Taking great delight in Arthur's pain and suffering. And can be seen treating his own men like dirt.
Colm ends up revealing he made a deal with the Pinkerton Agency to arrest Dutch when he goes to rescue Arthur. However, Arthur manages to escape. And he manages to heal back at the camp.
