Norfork 26 - Where There's Smoke

Pest Control

As a winter chill settles over Norfork, the trio reunites alongside new friends. But from the haze that connected them, something darker emerges too. And where there's smoke...

Nammi arrives home. Rabbit rushes in. Kelly asks for help. Skidemour makes a deal.
