In 1923 Season 2, Episode 5, titled “Only Gunshots to Guide Us,” tensions rise as the Duttons and their allies face mounting danger. Spencer remains stranded in Texas while Alexandra embarks on a journey to Boston. Meanwhile, Tiana’s brief happiness is shattered when she discovers wanted posters with her face plastered everywhere. Fearing for her life, she prepares to run again—but will she leave her boyfriend behind to protect him from the risks ahead?

As Tiana evades capture, Father Renault and Marshall Kent close in on the Cowboys who previously sheltered her. Although most seem loyal, there’s always a chance that someone will betray her location for a quick payout. If the authorities catch wind of her whereabouts, Tiana’s situation could take a frightening turn—one that might not end in her favor.

Elsewhere, Spencer’s journey takes a dramatic twist when he finally crosses paths with M. In a tense encounter, she holds a gun to his face, demanding answers.

If Spencer and M arrive in time, they may prevent Tiana from facing a horrific fate.

Meanwhile, Banner Creighton struggles with his loyalty to Donald Whitfield. Although Banner follows orders to dispose of bodies and pursue the Duttons, his hesitation hints at inner conflict. Could he eventually turn against Whitfield, or is he already too far gone?
