Jack Langrishe is a flamboyant stage promoter looking to transform Deadwood, but will the locals accept the culture he offers?

Alma opens the town's first bank amid as much fanfare as Deadwood's grimy inhabitants can muster, and as George Hearst threatens to destroy everything that has been established in Deadwood, Swearengen chooses Adams to be his deputy.

The camp elders must figure out how to deal with Hearst.

Alma reverts to her bad habits of old, Swearengen finds a use for Farnum, and the troupe prepares to transform the Chez Ami into a theatre. Are the filthy locals ready to accept such progression?

Wyatt Earp and his brother ride into Deadwood while the town await Hearst's next move.

Tensions mount between Langrishe and his troupe, while Swearengen takes Alma into protective custody.
