It was a fun crossover event between Sheriff Country and Fire Country last week, but now it’s time for both shows to return to their regular programming. Sheriff Country season 2 episode 6 is about to get personal for Hank.
Titled “Close to the Chest,” the hour is set to bring more of Hank’s upbringing to light. It’s an important development now that Ian Quinlan has been upped to series regular.
What to Expect on ‘Sheriff Country’ Season 2 Episode 6
The new hour will put a lot of focus on Hank, as someone close to him is attacked. Sheriff Country season 2 episode 6 hints that we’ll get to learn a little more about how he grew up, which is something he’s held back. It’s clear that nobody at the sheriff’s office knows a lot about his upbringing.
However, this case is going to do more than reveal secrets to us. Hank is about to learn some family secrets, and those secrets could put him at risk as well. Of course, when people stop listening to Mickey’s orders to keep the people of Edgewater safe, she’s going to step in and take control.
The fun thing about this hour is that it brings a different dynamic. We’re used to watching Hank work with Cassidy and Mickey work with Boone. How do the two handle working together?
Meanwhile, Boone has a mystery of his own to solve. He’s going to head down a rabbit hole with Emmy, and that’s sure to bring up a little more of his own past. After all, he needs to let Emmy in if they’re going to have a future together.
We can tease that there will be a little bit involving Cassidy, as well. She heads out on her first date after taking Jake’s advice about putting herself out there. It is time, although that doesn’t mean elements of her past won’t come up. It’s hard to move past such trauma at the hands of someone you loved.
