What happens in Last Man Standing from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 14 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
In the year 1930, the small Texan town of Jericho, situated 50 miles from the Mexican border, becomes a battleground for two rival crime syndicates: the Italian mob, led by [Fredo Strozzi](https://slug: ned-eisenberg), and the Irish mob, headed by [Mr. Doyle](https://slug: david-patrick-kelly). These gangs are fiercely competing for control over the highly profitable smuggling operations along the border. Meanwhile, law enforcement appears to be ineffective and has given up on restoring order. In fact, the current Sheriff, [Ed Galt](https://slug: bruce-dern), seems to be capitalizing on the chaos for his own interests.
