- Wish that was in our budget.
- I got you covered.

We get funding from here and there...

tribal, city, state, federal.

And in return, the department's
very involved with the tribe.

We know how to take care of
each other, our community.

And now you and... and your
team are included in that.

We're just doing our job.

Would you come with us?

No, no, no, we retire

We gotta get 10% out of the
overall SFD budget, right?

is funded by several sources.

So, what if Crisis One wasn't
a part of the SFD budget

because it's being
funded by other sources...

Miller always wanted Crisis
One to expand beyond SFD.

Yes. Yes! This is what we
