Riley Green lands first onscreen kiss in Marshals Show episode

Riley Green gets his first onscreen kissing scene on the marshals show in the May 3 episode, and the moment arrives as Garrett settles into a more active story line. The episode airs Sunday at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.

On Thin Ice at 8 p.m. ET

The May 3 episode is titled On Thin Ice, and it puts Kayce and his teammate Cal through an unexpected night on a mountainside in freezing cold after a prison transfer does not go according to plan. That colder, more physical setup gives Green a sharper showcase than the guitar moment Garrett got last week.

Garrett is officially shacking up with Andrea Cruz, played by Ash Santos, and the exclusive clip shows him shirtless when he comes downstairs. Andrea drops the line, "I ain’t no two-cheek sneak," before Garrett walks in and answers, "I'll tell you what, coyote, if we had teammates like Andrea in the Navy, I'd still be a SEAL." She fires back, "I can't resist the power of a country ballad."

Green's Third Appearance

This is Green's third appearance on the series, and the May 3 episode is part of a four-episode run that gives the show room to build Garrett beyond a one-scene novelty. Luke Grimes suggested to showrunners that Green might be a good fit for the role, which is usually how these TV bookings become useful: the casting starts as a clever one-off and ends up carrying an actual subplot.

The complication is simple. Garrett's new romance arrives while the episode around him is already in survival mode, with Kayce and Cal stuck outside after the prison transfer goes sideways. That split is what makes the hour worth a look: one thread pushes the action into danger, while Garrett's scenes push the character into territory that could keep paying off across the remaining run.

Paramount+ After CBS

After CBS airs On Thin Ice, the episode can be streamed on Paramount+, so viewers who miss the 8 p.m. ET slot will still catch Green's first onscreen kiss in the same week it debuts. For a performer better known for country music, the move from a guitar beat last week to a full romance beat now is the clearest sign that the role is being treated as more than stunt casting.
