What happened in Sheriff Country Season 1, Episode 1: A quick recap

The synopsis of the first episode reads:

"When a young boy is caught stealing food, Mickey uncovers a disturbing case of child abuse that leads to a high-stakes rescue and a cliffside standoff that could cost lives."

The synopsis continues:

"Meanwhile, Mickey's daughter Skye is newly sober, but her path to sobriety is complicated by her relationship with a troubled young man whom her mother arrested."

Sheriff Country starts with Mickey Fox realizing that she's the new interim sheriff, as their boss has been killed recently. Mickey has always been a determined deputy who wants to protect her community and ensure peace in Edgewater.

However, crimes are increasing in the town, and people do not trust the new sheriff. This means Mickey already has a task to win everyone's trust. Soon, a theft case emerges. Turns out that food was stolen, and the thief is a child named Simon. When Mickey starts the investigation, she learns that Simon took food for his sister.

This way, a small crime is revealed to be much darker as Mickey also discovers that Simon's sister is being starved, abused, and kept hidden. This has resulted in the child being malnourished, and Mickey does everything to save her.

After a tense confrontation with the culprits, Mickey was able to solve the case. And just when she thought it was all for the day, her daughter ended up being connected to the murder of her boyfriend.

Skye is already struggling to keep herself sober and now she's gotten into big trouble. Being a mother, it would be hard for Mickey to solve the case and find out who stabbed the man.


What to expect from Sheriff Country Season 1, Episode 2?

The next episode of Sheriff Country will continue after the cliffhanger from the premiere. Mickey's daughter Skye has now become a suspect in the murder of her boyfriend, but nothing has been proved yet. Fans can look forward to more drama and criminal cases to emerge.

Baccarin teased in a recent interview:

"...She [Mickey] obviously doesn’t believe her daughter was involved in the murder... Obviously, things get complicated, because otherwise we wouldn’t have a show. And that thinking gets tested."

Not only this, the actress also mentioned that Mickey will be seen arguing and accusing her father after he comments on his daughter blindly trusting the system. But the reality is that Mickey has realized that corruption continues in the sheriff's department.
