A lawless stinkhole of crime and corruption, Deadwood is a festering outpost for the nastiest low-lifes in the west.

While Jewel visits Doc Cochran, Trixie has a different kind of rendezvous with Sol. Alma's father, Otis Russell, comes to town.

As Swearengen and Bullock gear up for a final confrontation, Bullock leaves a harsh decision in Alma's hands, and Calamity Jane returns to town.

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.

Al Swearengen and the rest of the seedy low-lifes return, as Deadwood is on the threshold of its first elections.

It's not looking good for the seriously ill Swearengen. He needs surgery, and in a very delicate place.
