Untamed (2025) – Episode 4 'Gold Rush' Recap & Review
Episode 4 of Untamed Season 1 starts with a flashback of Lucy revisiting her old home. She is wearing her mom's yellow dress and is startled when a man asks if she needs help. She runs off and changes her outfit. As she was about to leave, her friend asked her to stop assisting the wrong people. Lucy simply shrugged and went to the caves.
Presently, Naya and Kyle continue investigating the caves. They head back to see what they can find. This time, they find Abuelo's lower jaw. A deeper investigation leads them to Abuelo's body. Based on Abuelo's body, it looks like he was killed roughly a week ago.
Kyle goes back to the squatter village and informs Gloria of Abuelo's death. The news does not sadden Gloria since he was her ex. Kyle brings in more rangers to search the squatter's belongings and bring them in for questioning. Summer sees the rangers and hides behind a tree.
Meanwhile, Kyle tells Souter that the cases are all connected. They find drugs among the squatters' belongings. Gloria, hardened by the world, refuses to talk. The rangers start running background checks on the other squatters. Lucy's DNA results come back and prove Rory was not her biological father. Kyle wonders if Lucy's mom had an affair. He insists on investigating, but Souter says it won't help much.
A kid drops by the office and asks to talk to Kyle. The young man believes he knew Lucy when she was a teenager. He thinks Lucy is Grace McRay. According to him, Lucy/ Grace lived with a pastor's family back in Nevada. He last saw her ten years ago, and the Gibbs family reported that she had reunited with her family.
The young man gives Kyle a picture of Lucy at the church. Afterwards, he asks about the reward money.
In the meantime, Naya finds Summer and asks her about Lucy. Summer mentions Lucy has a boyfriend, whom she referred to as Terces. Lucy kept a lot of secrets, but the relationship changed her. She started selling drugs for her secret boyfriend. Sometimes, Lucy returned home all beaten up. She and Pakuna were close to Abuelo. Summer also adds that she saw Lucy on the day she died, right before she went on her usual swap at a nearby gulch.
Naya briefs Kyle on her latest findings after talking to Summer. They agree to take a helicopter the next day and search the east side. Naya also goes through Lucy's bag. Later, Kyle does the same and notices a picture of Lucy with a man's hand on her shoulder. Unfortunately, the man's face is cropped out.
At night, Kyle drops by Shane's favourite bar and asks about Abuelo and the drug ring. Kyle assumes Shane was in the drug business. Shane admits that once in a while, he got paid to look the other way. Other than that, he has no idea who is running the show.
Shane brings up Lucy's case and mocks Kyle for failing to save Lucy. He also brings up Esther, Sean's lawyer, and implies Kyle might be involved in Sean's disappearance. Souter arrives in time to take Kyle away. He warns Kyle that if he does not stop drinking, he will lose his badge. Souter worries that Kyle is torturing himself with his cases and Caleb's death.
At Naya's house, she gets a sudden visit from her ex. He demands to spend the night and reunite with Naya and Gael. He insists that Naya must return to L. A with him and cover for him about a case. He is currently on leave pending an investigation into missing money. He wants Naya to lie and clear his name.
Naya refuses but agrees to let him spend the night. She sneaks out with Gael and drives to Kyle's house. She comes clean about her situation and the restraining order she has against him.
Kyle agrees to let them stay over for the night. He allows Gael to play with everything except Caleb's toys. The following morning, Jill offers to babysit Gael while Kyle and Naya work. Kyle asks Milch to turn Pakuna loose and send him back to the empty squatter village.
They secretly follow Pakuna to the caves and the drug ring leader. It turns out the gang executed Abuelo for betraying them. The episode ends with Naya and Kyle bringing Pakuna in.
The Episode Review
Kyle was smart to secretly follow Pakuna. He knew Pakuna would lead them to the ringleader. Pakuna doesn't look like the type to keep his mouth shut; he will sing like a canary.
Naya's situation is scary. Imagine getting home and finding your violent ex in your room. He is trying to use Gael as leverage against her. He probably took the missing money but doesn't want to take the fall. At least Naya has filled Kyle in on the situation, and she is no longer alone. However, is it a good idea for Jill to watch Gael? Won't he remind her too much of Caleb?
What did Shane mean when he asked Kyle about Sean? Was Sean linked to Caleb's death? Did Shane see Kyle kill Sean? There is a lot of tension between Shane and Kyle, and we still have no clue what they are beefing about.

Ghislaine Maxwell interviewed again by deputy US attorney general
The deputy US attorney general, Todd Blanche, held a second in-person meeting on Friday with Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted sex trafficker and longtime associate of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Blanche had confirmed the two met behind closed doors in Tallahassee, Florida, on Thursday, at the federal prosecutor's office within the federal courthouse in the state capital, and they met again on Friday. Maxwell's lawyer, David Oscar Markus, on Friday afternoon said Blanche had finished his questioning for the day, NBC News first reported. Markus told reporters as he left the courthouse in downtown Tallahassee: 'We started this morning right around 9 o'clock, and went to now lunchtime, and we're finished after all day, yesterday and today. Ghislaine answered every single question asked of her over the last day and a half. She answered those questions honestly, truthfully, to the best of her ability. She never invoked a privilege. She never refused to answer a question.' He added: 'They asked about every single, every possible thing you could imagine. Everything.' The justice department has not said whether Blanche intends to question Maxwell further. Markus said he did not know whether the discussions would have any impact on her case. He had previously said Thursday's meeting was 'very productive'. Blanche had announced earlier in the week that he had contacted Maxwell's lawyers to see if she might have 'information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims'. Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence at a federal prison in Tallahassee, after a jury convicted her of sex trafficking in 2021. An uproar continues to engulf Donald Trump and calls have intensified for his administration to release all details of the federal investigation into Epstein, while questions remain about whether Maxwell has any fresh light to shed on her former boyfriend's crimes. Meanwhile, the US supreme court is due to wade into the controversy and decide whether to hear a bid by Maxwell to overturn her criminal conviction. Epstein killed himself in 2019 in a jail cell in New York while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. Trump, dogged by questions about his ties to Epstein, headed to Scotland on Friday for a trip that will mix golf with politics mostly out of public view. Protests await the president in the UK over his extreme agenda while scandal nips at his heels in the US. Further talking to reporters after Friday's meeting, Markus said: 'We don't know how it's going to play out. We just know that this was the first opportunity she's ever been given to answer questions about what happened, and so the truth will come out about what happened with Mr Epstein. And she's the person who's answering those questions.' Prosecutors and the judge who oversaw Maxwell's 2021 trial have said that she made multiple false statements under oath and failed to take responsibility for her actions. She was convicted for sex trafficking and other crimes, and sentenced to 20 years in federal prison. 'People have questioned her honesty, which I think is just wrong,' Markus said. Asked if Maxwell had received an offer of clemency from the government, Markus said no offer had been made. Trump rejected the idea of a pardon for Maxwell after landing in the UK on Friday. 'A lot of people have been asking me about pardons' for Maxwell, he said. 'Obviously, this is no time to be talking about pardons.' Although the US attorney general, Pam Bondi, earlier this year had promised to release additional materials related to possible Epstein clients, the justice department reversed course this month and issued a memo concluding there was no basis to continue investigating and there was no evidence of a client list or blackmail. Sign up to This Week in Trumpland A deep dive into the policies, controversies and oddities surrounding the Trump administration after newsletter promotion Since then, the department has sought permission to unseal grand jury transcripts from its prior investigations into Epstein and Maxwell. On Wednesday, US district judge Robin Rosenberg denied one of those requests. Trump's name, along with many other high-profile individuals, appeared multiple times on flight logs for Epstein's private plane in the 1990s, while several media outlets have this month reported previously unpublicized and friendly communications from the US president to the high-profile financier. Meanwhile, the supreme court justices, now on their summer recess, are expected in late September to consider whether to take up the appeal by Maxwell against her conviction in 2021 by a jury in New York for helping Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls. Maxwell's lawyers have told the supreme court that her conviction was invalid because a non-prosecution and plea agreement that federal prosecutors had made with Epstein in Florida in 2007 also shielded his associates and should have barred her criminal prosecution in New York. Her lawyers have a Monday deadline for filing their final written brief in their appeal to the court. Some legal experts see merit in Maxwell's claim, noting that it touches on an unsettled matter of US law that has divided some of the nation's regional federal appeals courts. Mitchell Epner, a former federal prosecutor now in private practice, said there was a chance that the supreme court would take up the case, and noted the disagreement among appeals courts. Such a split among circuit courts can be a factor when the nation's top judicial body considers whether or not to hear a case. 'The question of whether a plea agreement from one US attorney's office binds other federal prosecution as a whole is a serious issue that has split the circuits,' Epner said. While uncommon, 'there have been several cases presenting the issue over the years', Epner added. The Associated Press and Reuters contributed reporting

Lucy Bronze's 'romance' with Spain star Ona Batlle after sizzling summer holiday
Lucy Bronze and Ona Batlle will go head-to-head in Sunday's Euro 2025 final, with the two full-backs believed to be in a relationship after striking up a bond at Barcelona While Lioness Lucy Bronze often opens up about her close-knit family, she tends to keep her romantic life private. However, it's widely believed that the England star is in a relationship with Spanish footballer Ona Batlle. The pair met when Lucy, 33, joined Barcelona FC, and though she and Ona, 26, had previously played on opposite sides of the Manchester rivalry - Lucy with City and Ona with United - it was evident a close bond had already begun to blossom. During a dazzling 2023-24 season with Barcelona -where they secured the domestic league title, two Spanish cups, and the Champions League - Lucy and Ona became inseparable off the pitch. That bond only grew after Lucy's return to the Women's Super League with Chelsea last summer. Lionesses star reveals benefits of social media sabbatical - 'I feel a lot better' Pizza, partying and a new mantra - How Lionesses celebrated reaching Euro 2025 Final Now, as the two full-backs prepare to face off in the 2025 Women's Euros final this Sunday when England take on Spain once again in the Euro 2025 final. they do so as fierce competitors, yet also possibly lovers. Though the pair haven't officially confirmed their romance, they've shared several affectionate photos together - most recently from a holiday just before the tournament. Ahead of the tournament in Switzerland, the pair shared snapshots from a joint holiday, which appeared to coincide with Ona's birthday. "Bday week," the Spanish defender captioned on Instagram, alongside photos of them enjoying ice cream, floating in the sea on a lilo, and lounging in a private pool during a boat trip. It wasn't their first getaway together either. The previous winter, six months after Lucy joined Chelsea, Ona posted pictures of the two at Disneyland Paris with the caption: "What a magical place." But the pair will have to set their relationship - romantic or not - aside on Sunday. Spain booked their place in the final with a dramatic 1-0 extra-time win over Germany, while England battled past Italy 2-1, also in extra time, with Bronze playing all 120 minutes and previously netting a crucial penalty in a quarter-final shootout against Sweden. In the aftermath of Spain's 1-0 triumph over the Lionesses in the 2023 Women's World Cup final, Ona was even seen taking time out of her celebrations to console Lucy, kneeling beside her to offer comfort. Last month, Lucy opened up about her hopes of one day starting a family, saying it's the one thing she's "dying" to do. "My brother's got two kids and that's what I'm most jealous of, seeing my niece and nephew. But there's plenty of time for that – and what that looks like, I don't know," she told Women's Health.
