Previously, on "Heartland"...

But I might be willing to
work out a deal with you,

based on sweat equity.

I do enough sweating around here.

This way your sweat could be
an investment in the future.

Copper would be half yours.

Sweet.

I hear that, uh, Caleb's back, huh?

Yeah.

I guess I should never
have done what I did.

Yep.

I bought him off.

No doubt about it.

So, what are you waiting for? I
mean, just tell her how you feel.

How am I supposed to do that?
She won't even talk to me.

- Are you breaking up with me?
- No.

It's just--

This whole time it's been Amy, right?

No.

I think we should just be friends.

You all set?

I've been up for hours.

It's a roommate issue.

Hey, listen, uh, I haven't
told Amy about this,

so keep it to yourself, but
I got these in the mail

this week.

You got accepted to two places?

Yeah.

Grasslands Agricultural College
and University of Manitoba.

What do you think's better?

Well, they're both pretty good.

But if you go to the
agricultural college,

you're going to put up with the jokes.

- Jokes?
- Aggie jokes.

Like, uh, there are three
types of Aggies--

those who can count, those who can't.

[laughter]

Somebody might have asked
me what I think about Ty's

taking off with Scott.

I've worked for sweat equity, okay?

And now I have to do his job?

Let's do the math.

Twice the work, so

- two times nothing comes to--
- Yeah, okay, I get it,

Mallory, but somebody's
gotta pick up the slack.

Right.

Slack.

Another word for manure.

One tall stack, two eggs over
easy, and a slab of bacon.

Someone's feeling flush today.

You betcha.

Won bronze at the Caroline Rodeo.

Got a big old check burning
a hole in my pocket.

To match that hole in your head?

What did I say?

You didn't have to say anything.

Your face did the talking for you.

It just reminds me of what
a reckless idiot you are.

It comes with the territory.

Exactly.

I mean, who's going to take
a bronc rider seriously

as boyfriend material?

Unless you're holding a life
insurance policy on him.

Hey, are you sure you're okay with this?

Absolutely.

Because I could just cook up
something for the two of us.

No, are you kidding me?

A sit down dinner with the whole family?

It's gonna be great.

It totally seals the deal.

Like a regular couple now,
doing regular couple things.

Right.

Yeah.

Like, um-- getting dessert.

Hey, do you want a cake?
Yeah.

Sure.

Only if you jump out of it.

Yeah, that's the thing about
our, um, family dinners.

I only jump out of cakes on birthdays.

- Oh, yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

What about after the cake?

That other thing that normal couples do.

Hm?
Good

What thing?

I'm sorry, but I cannot kiss a
man whose pocket is vibrating.

28 missed calls?
Yeah.

You know what that is?

It's my contractor, with 28 lame excuses

why my office renovations
won't be done by Monday.

That's what that is.

Yeah.

Well, why don't you just stay out here?

Oh-- yeah, sure.

I'd get lots of work done
that way, wouldn't I?

Exactly.

[Scott] How do you get a one
armed Aggie out of a tree?

Scott--

You wave.

Hey, you could have told me you were

going to the Baileys' place.

Kit's mare's in foal.

Why?

Is there a problem?

Hey, Scott.

Hey.

Hi.

I didn't expect to be seeing you.

Yeah.

Uh, I've just been working with Scott.

So this is your barrel racing mare?

Yeah.

Have a look.

So, uh, how have you been?

You okay?
Yeah.

Yeah.

Why wouldn't I be?

Well, she's all bagged up.

Swelling.

Bit of dried milk.

I meant to call you, Kit, I-- I just--

Yeah.

You've been busy.

Come on, Kit.

Hey.

Good news.

Your mare is going to pop.

I mean, not now, but--

could be any day.

Awesome.

Looks good, Mallory.

Just make sure you sweep
up after you're finished.

Sweep up?

Um-- are you sure I can handle that?

Come on, Mallory.

What is your problem?
Nothing.

Just that I wouldn't mind working

with a real, live horse,
instead of their just po--

Do you hear that?

Sounds like--

Grandpa?

Grandpa!

I heard you the first time.

Promise you won't get mad?

[mooing]

What do you think you're doing?

Well, you remember that
money you lent me?

You loaned Dad money?

Jack, I'm paying you back.

In cows.

Come on.

We got a deal?

♪♪ [Jenn Grant's Dreamer playing]

♪ And at the break of day ♪

♪ you sank into your dream ♪

♪ you dreamer ♪

♪ oh, oh, oh... ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

♪ you dreamer ♪

Wow.

Grandpa, I cannot believe you said yes.

Well I gotta admit, I might have been

a little reluctant at first.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, for 2 seconds.

That's how long it took me to recall

that some of the best years of my life

were spent in the company of cows.

You picked a good time to
jump back in, too, Jack.

Cattle prices being what they are.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Wait, you're thinking
what he's thinking?

Finally found some common ground.

Yeah, it's called global warming.

Everybody knows that oil
guys and cattle ranchers

are the major causes of
land and water pollution.

Just for everyone's information,

Peter's company is doing
everything it can to minimize

its carbon footprint.

In fact, uh, the whole screw
up with my renovation

is because it takes twice as long

to build a green office space.

Well, if an oil man can
claim he's going green,

maybe I should, too.

Maybe I could get my cows
to quit passing gas.

You would not believe how
much Scott packs into a day.

Like what?

Well Well, there were some
Coggins tests at Forest Farms.

Uh-- there was a case of colic at Bar H.

The Baileys' mare is in full.

Scott says I'm getting pretty handy

with a rectal thermometer.

The Baileys, like, Kit's mare?

Yeah.

Oh.

Why didn't you tell me?

Well, I guess the next place we went,

Scott gelded three colts.

Now, that's an image that's gonna

stay in your mind for a while.

Yeah, but you didn't date
whoever owned the colts.

Hey, you work with Caleb all the time.

And you used to date him.

I did not date him.

We just kinda hung out.

Okay, maybe we dated, but
it's your fault, anyway.

Oh, you're blaming me for this?

Well-- not for everything.

Just, you know, for taking off on me.

So I had to hang out with
Caleb instead of you.

Oh.

So you'd better make sure
that never happens again.

You know, I've been thinking
about what you said.

You mean about you being an idiot?

I mean, you know--

if I fall on my head one more time,

I could end up getting brain damaged.

Yeah, but nobody would notice.

Hey, Mr. Fleming.

How are you doing?

You know, I was just
telling Soraya here I'm

thinking of quitting broncs.

ought maybe I'd try bulldogging.

Yeah?

Hm.

Bulldogging, huh?

I'm a little rusty, but I could probably

give you a few pointers.

- That'd be awesome.
- Okay.

Tomorrow morning.
9:00 AM at the rodeo grounds.

Yeah?

Sold.

Yeah, that's great.

All right.

What's the matter?

You're kidding, right?

Bulldogging with Tim Fleming?

That's like Wayne Gretzky
teaching me to skate.

So, how's your coffee?

It's the best coffee I've
ever had in my life.

Yeah?

Um, how's your cell reception?

You still looking for an excuse

to get your hand in my shirt?

No.

I'm just trying to get you
to see that you don't have

to go all the way back to Calgary just

to work out of your house.

You can stay here.

Work out of my office.

- Your office?
- Yeah.

That's the one in the barn, right?

With the view of the manure pile?

Is that-- is that your--

Hey, that's where I work out of.

Yeah.

I mean, sure, you run a multinational,

and I run a four bedroom dude ranch,

but business is business.

I have high speed, you
have your computer.

Yeah.

Well, it could work.

That should be the last of it.

I guess we're square.

Well, I have to say I'm a little

surprised how much money a young man

can win riding bucking horses.

Then again, the way your face
looks, I guess you earned it,

huh?

Well, that's why I'm
thinking of switching

to something a little safer.

- Oh?
- Bulldogging.

I'm hoping Ashley will appreciate

that I'm trying to be a
little more responsible.

You really do care for
my daughter, don't you?

Yes, ma'am, I do.

But I wouldn't go as far to say
that the feeling is mutual.

Why don't you keep this?

No, ma'am, I owe it to you.

Just call it rent for your
trailer, or whatever you like.

But just keep it.

What's going on with you, Miss Stanton?

Is everything all right?

Yes.

I'm just trying to set things right.

I don't want anything
hanging over my head.

Well, thanks for the offer.

I do appreciate it, but
taking money from you

is what got me in trouble
in the first place.

So maybe not taking money from you now

might be a step towards
me setting things right.

You have a good day, Miss Stanton.

You okay there, Mallory?

I'm fine.

Don't worry about me.

I'll manage somehow.

How about I give you a hand with that?

You're in a good mood, Jack.

Well, first day back on the range,

and it went smooth as silk.

And I'm always in a good mood.

Hey, Grandpa, where's Ty?

I thought he was with you?

Left before breakfast.

Something about a mare
at the Bailey place.

The Bailey place?

As in Kit Bailey?

Yes, Mallory.

With Scott.

His job.

Her mare is in full.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it.

He's totally over her.

Good thing you called.

She's getting ready to go into labor.

But there is a problem.

The foal is upside down, so
unless it shifts position,

it could be a difficult birth.

Is there anything we can do?

Keep a close eye on her.

And call me if her water breaks,
or contractions begin.

- Thank you, Ty.
- Okay.

Thanks.

Hey.

I wouldn't worry about it.

It's called dystocia.

It's not as bad as it sounds.

Vets deal with this thing all the time.

They can change the foal's
position during labor, so--

Wow.

You're really taking this job seriously.

Yeah, well, I've applied to
a bunch of universities

for pre-vet courses, and I've
already got two acceptances,

so--

- No way.
- Yeah.

Hey.

You've come a long way since, you know,

struggling with grade 12 algebra.

I was not struggling.

Oh, come on.

You're talking to your math tutor, here.

Ex math tutor.

All right, Caleb, we gotta anticipate

when the steer's gonna go.

So you don't want to leave too soon.

But you don't want to leave too late.

Ready?
Okay.

Not too early, not too late.

That just about covers
it, doesn't it, Dad?

Just remember, when-- when you
get a hold of the old horns,

Okay, you just let the steer do the work.

And don't let him push you too far.

You gotta really plant your heels.

Okay, Caleb, just call it.

[mooing]

You didn't do anything I told you.

Were you asleep in that box?

Huh?

You don't dive on the steer like
a virgin on his wedding night.

You let him pull you off.

God-- you know, I'll just--

I'll just-- you know, I'll just--

I'll just-- Dad.

No.

The kid's doing so many
things wrong, Amy,

it'd be a lot easier if
I just do it myself.

Come on.

[mooing]

There you go!

That's what I'm talking about.

Huh?

Oh, god, that felt good.

Yeah, he must have seen
something special.

I mean, he came out of retirement just

to show me the ropes.

You done with that?

Great.

You know, I ran into
your mom the other day.

My mom?

Yeah.

Told her I was switching to bulldogging.

Like she'd care.

Well, that's the thing.

She did seem to care.

She got this look, and said
all this weird stuff to me.

Like what?

I don't know.

But it seemed like she was
putting her house in order,

if you know what I mean.

So?

How's your grandpa making
out with my cattle?

Well, he seems pretty happy, actually.

I think he likes being
back in the saddle again.

That's good.

Well, that's sort of what I
wanted to talk to you girls

about.

This might sound crazy,
but keep an open mind.

Amy, you saw me the other day.

Tell them-- after 20 years,
does your old man still

have what it takes?

Dad-- you were great, but--

Wait a minute.

Are you talking about bulldogging, Dad?

That gold pro rodeo card I
got back in my glory days

is good for life.

Yeah.

But Dad, your glory days
were a long time ago.

Exactly, honey.

I'm older.

I'm wiser.

You know, me getting back into
the rodeo is sort of like Jack

getting back into cowboying.

Yeah, except the last time you
tried to wrestle a steer,

you almost killed yourself.

Look-- a man gets to my age, he realizes

he's gotta make a choice, okay?

To sit around boring people with stories

about the good old days, or he can--

Grab the bull by the horns?

That's good.

Uh-huh.

God.

Shoot.

Ugh!

You look like you could use a break.

And I could use a hand setting up

my stuff in the Lou's office.

So, what do you say?

I'll give you whatever
Lou's giving you, plus--

I don't know, $5.00?

Well, 0 plus 5 equals 5, so--

She doesn't pay you?

Tell me about it.

I'm working to pay off my horse, Copper.

Lou calls it sweat equity, but it's

like, I'm doing all the sweating,

and she's just keeping the equity.

Okay, well, I'm sure Lou's not gonna

pull a fast one on you, so--

let's see here.

Um-- how long you been working?

About a year and a half.

After school, ends, and
all of last summer.

Um-- wow.

How much do you think a horse
like Copper would be worth?

Well, he's kind of old and slow, so--

Something like that?

Oh my god.

Okay.

I'll be right there.

Bye.

Amy, I'm really sorry.

I can't do the turnout.

Scott just called from
the Baileys' place.

The mare's water just broke.
Oh, wow.

You first bull.

Up close and personal.

Well, you'd better get going.

You'll be fine, but these things happen

fast once the water breaks.

I'll call you.

[phone ringing]

Can somebody get that?

Can someone--

[phone ringing]

Uh-- Heartline Equestrian.

Can-- dammit.

Mallory?

Didn't you hear me?

What are you doing?

Nothing.

I'm on strike.

Why?

Funny you should ask.

I'm being exploited.

Even with the deduction
for Copper's board

and the exemption for
agricultural workers--

Mallory, what are you talking about?

You remember our deal?

I was supposed to work to
pay off half of Copper?

Yeah.

Of course I remember.

Okay, well, guess what?

I've already paid my half
about a million times.

And what makes you think that?

I went to the top.

The CEO of Bedford Oil.

What?

You talked to Peter
about our arrangement?

Yeah.

So?

Are you guys going to fight?

Your first fight because of me?

No, Mallory.

Peter and I don't fight.

We talk.

Just like me and you.

And right now, I'm saying
get back to work.

How's it going?

Scott needs help.

Get this on.

Hey, it's going to be all right, okay?

No, it's serious, Ty.

Scott says the head and the
right front leg are stuck.

You know that local
rodeo up in Longview?

Longview Stampede.

Came second in saddle broncs last year.

Yeah, well, like I said, local.

I signed us up for it.

I figure we could use the practice.

Great.

I mean-- I didn't think we've
be out there that soon, but--

Okay, so here's the deal.

I think in terms of winning, it'd

probably be best if I did
the steer wrestling,

and you hazed for me.

Oh.

Sure-- sure, I guess.

You guess?

I mean, one phone call, and I'd have 10

guys lined up to haze for me.

No, there's no need.

I'm your man.

Good.

[mooing]

What the hell was that?

Where were ya?
I don't know.

I was just doing--

I'll tell you where you were.

You were in the wrong place.

Come on.

Let's do it again.

Okay.

[mooing]

Dad!

Dad, are you okay?

Oh, I'd be a hell of a lot better if he

had a clue what he was doing.

What's the idea, letting the cow
wander all over the place?

Sorry.

Yeah, me too.

Why don't you go get my horse?

You think you can handle that?

Dad!

That's a little harsh, don't you think?

He's just starting out.

The least-- Please.

Come on, the guy's a real tough guy,

and then it's boo-hoo when somebody

tells him he screwed up?

Okay, that's not all his fault.

Look, if he can't cut it in practice,

what's he going to do when
there's actual money at stake?

Well, it didn't look to me like
you were actually pulling

your weight out there, either.

Oh, thanks, hon.

Nothing like a little honest
criticism from your daughter.

That's a good girl.

Easy, girl.

Good girl, Daisy.

Easy.

Shh.

You feel anything?

No.

No movement.

What?
What's that mean?

What's happening?

It means you want to put your
finger into the foal's mouth.

He'll suck on it.

I can feel it twitching, or
a bit of a shudder, but--

We can't-- there's gotta be something.

I mean, we can't just let it--

I'm sorry.

The foal's gone.

Ty, why don't take Kit out?

No.

Come on, Kit.

Let's go.

Come on.

Hey, Bill.

It's Scott Cardinal.

Yeah, I'm over at the Bailey ranch.

Yeah, one of their foals was stillborn.

I don't get it, Ty.

What's-- what's Scott doing?

How's my mare?

Your mare's okay.

Scott wants to keep the stillborn

foal in the stall with her.

We tried to take it out, but
she's still protecting it.

She won't let anyone go near it.

It's like she thinks it's
going to get up any minute

and start to nurse.

Well, maybe if I went in?

That's not a good idea.

But I do have a lead on orphan foal

that the mare just might accept.

Gonna be okay?

Yeah.

I guess.

I mean, this kind of thing
happens all the time, right?

When it happens to your horse, at least.

I know.

Thank you.

See you later, guys.

Mom?

Hi.

I got your message.

I had to listen twice to make
sure it was you, though.

Oh.

Well, it was no big deal.

I just wanted to see how you were.

Can I get you something?

Coffee would be nice.

This is frontier stuff, if it works.

[man] You're going to need some
deep pockets invested to--

Okay, what are we looking at?

[phone ringing]

Heartland Equestrian Connection.

Yes, we do have some
availability next month--

I'm gonna stop you right here.

Hey, sorry, can you just
keep it down for a bit?

I'm right in the middle
of something, here.

Thanks.
Sorry.

Okay, guys.
Sorry.

Go ahead.

Our rate chart is on our website.

Website.

Ashley, I've been doing a lot
of thinking lately, and--

I might have been wrong
about your cowboy friend.

Caleb?

I don't really think
of him as my friend.

Not since you lied to me about
that money you gave him.

Yeah.

Don't blame him.

It was my fault. I was the one
who paid him off to leave town,

and I was also the one who
told him not to tell you.

I'm really sorry about that.

He paid me back, you know?

Every single cent.

He didn't say anything about that.

He's a decent young man.

And maybe it isn't right that
you're living in his trailer,

and not paying rent.

Since when do you care
about what's right?

Maybe if I'd started sooner,
you wouldn't have left home?

Ashley, do you think he could
give me a second chance?

I really miss you.

There you go.

Well, his name's Merlin.

Hopefully he'll be a bit of a magician.

It's okay.

These things take time.

Yeah, I guess.

He'll get hungry.

He'll smell the milk.

Hopefully he'll go for it.

And what if he doesn't?

What if-- what if she doesn't let him?

Well, we can't let him starve.

So I'm going to leave you with
some bottles, and some formula.

Can you handle this?

Yeah.

Sure.

Uh-- maybe you should stay.

Are you sure you don't need me?

I'll check back on you later.

You know, I appreciate this,
but you don't have to.

It's okay. Um...

I'm just gonna make a quick phone call.

Yeah, there's definitely
some heat there.

Yeah.

Yeah, he worked pretty hard yesterday.

You know, I really let him down.

And not just him, either.

Your dad, too.

I really sucked out there.

Caleb, maybe you should just
stick with what you want,

and not what my dad wants.

Come on, Amy.

Four time national champion.

Any cowboy would give his
right arm to haze for him.

I could help you practice.

[phone ringing]

Mm.

Hey.

That's terrible.
I-- no, that's no problem.

Okay.

Bye.

Kit's foal died.

Damn.

She had a lot riding on that foal.

Yeah, that's what Ty said.

Is he staying out there with her?

Yeah.

Yeah, they're trying to get the mare

to bond with an orphan foal.

You know you've got nothing
to worry about, right?

[neighing]

He keeps trying to nurse,
but she won't let him.

I can't stand this anymore.

He must be starving by now.

I think we should bottle feed him.

Just wait.

She knows that her real foal's--

she doesn't want to have anything

to do with this other guy.

It's gonna be okay.

Okay, please, don't pretend like
you give a damn about me.

I'm not pretending.

I care about you, and I always have.

Yeah, right.

I should have known that "we'll still

be friends" is just what guys say when

they're breaking up with you.

Come on, why didn't you
tell me the truth?

It took me a while to
figure it out, Kit.

Yeah, well, you could have asked me.

I would have told you.

I knew before you did.

Well, great end to a great day, Lou.

You know, I gotta admit, this
whole working together thing--

I wasn't sure, but I was pretty
impressed by the way you

handled that situation today.

Well, you work for a few
years in an investment

bank in a cubicle, and you learn pretty

quick how to ignore irritants.

Oh, irritants?

I've been downgraded from
boyfriend to irritant now?

No.

Not at all.

Just, you know--

I mean, the teleconferencing
thing, that was a bit--

I mean, you could have worn headphones.

You're right.
Absolutely.

Um-- next time.

I promise.

Good.

As long as you don't hum.

What do you mean, hum?

Who hums?

[humming]

[inaudible].

Does that sound familiar?

Wow.

I can't believe I do that.

Not just that.

[drumming]

Okay.

Right.

I get it.

So, uh-- keep my day job, right?

Yeah.

Especially if it doesn't
include labor negotiations.

I'm not following.

You have dozens of employees
all around the world.

I have exactly three.

But all of yours aren't enough for you.

You've gotta meddle with mine.

Meddle?

Are you talking about Mallory?

Yeah.

She's your employee, but
you don't even pay her.

Okay-- what are you, her agent now?

We're making the right decision.

Look, I don't want to be
a problem for you, Lou.

You know, just-- a solution.

Sure.

Yeah.

I mean, it's-- it's crazy to
let office issues mess us up,

right?
Totally.

Yeah.

So, good.

I'll see you later.
Bye.

All right.

What the hell are you looking at?

What happened to work around here?

Or is everyone on strike now?

[mooing]

And through that gate.

Don't you go there.

There you go.

Catch up to your mama.

Whoa!

You lousy, no good cow.

[mooing]

Gotcha, you stubborn--

Great!

Where the hell do you
think you're going?

Have you, uh--

have you heard from Kit?

You mean about the mare, or the fact

that Ty didn't come home last night?

Well, both, I guess.

Don't worry.

Ty knows if he messes
with either of you,

he's gotta answer to me.

Oh-- yeah, right.

Come on.

Get going, on I'm gonna start asking you

embarrassing questions that Ashley.

Fair is fair.

Pick it up, Amy!

Woo!

Go faster!

Yes!

Woo!

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

[mooing]

Grandpa!

Hey.

You okay?

I got dragged off my horse.

You know, I really think you should

get some help with those cows.

It's not a one man job.

And you don't think I'm
the one man for the job?

You know, you're like Dad, trying

to relive your glory days.

How about you just help me get this damn

steer through this gate?

[mooing]

Keep your horns to yourself.

She won't let him nurse.

But we still haven't fed him.

Well, he's going to have to eat soon.

Well, is there anything else we
can do to make this happen?

In the old days, I would
have called Amy's mom

to come work her magic.

Okay.

Maybe I've been stubborn.

Maybe my days as a one
man band are over.

If I want to keep this herd, I'm
going to need an extra hand.

Well, I can help you.

You know that I would love that,

but you've been pretty busy lately.

I'm sure I could find time.

[phone ringing]

[sigh]

Hey.

Yeah.

Be right there.

Okay.

You go ahead.

I'll be just fine.

You know, Mallory, I, um--

I think I might have let
the whole sweat equity

thing go on a little too long.

In fact, I probably owe
you some back pay.

I'm willing to forget all about

that if we negotiate a new contract

from a go forth position.

Now, who does that sound like?

Let me guess--

Peter.

He has a good head for business.

I kinda miss him.

Yeah.

Me too.

Yeah, it's just over here.

Hey, there.

Hey, Mr. Fleming?

Just wanted to tell you I've been

working that whole bulldogging
deal with Amy, and--

well, there's a bit of a problem.

- Problem?
- Well, yeah.

I mean, it's going okay with her, but--

That's your problem.

See, it's not enough to
be just okay at something.

You gotta be the best.

And from what I understand,
you've got the potential to be

the best bronc rider around.

Yeah, I was thinking that way, too.

It's just-- well, I
figure Ashley would just

take me a whole lot more
serious if I gave up broncs

for something a little safer.
Ah.

Like bulldogging.

Are you nuts?

Bulldogging's twice as
dangerous as broncs

because you gotta factor
another animal into the mix.

You can't predict what's
going to happen.

Caleb, take it from a guy who
spent 10 years with from one

little bulldogging accident
because a cow zigged

when it should have zagged.

Yeah.

Think about it.

Thanks.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm really sorry about your foal.

Yeah, me too.

He really needs to eat.

How long has that blanket
been on the dead foal?

12 hours since I delivered it.

Because I was thinking,
well, horses rely as much

on smell as they do on vision.

So, maybe if we take that blanket

and rub it all over the new little guy,

then he'll smell enough like her
foal, and she'll accept him?

I mean, you have the best chance.

It's your mare.

She trusts you.

Yeah, I can do it.

I can try.

Easy, girl.

Hey, buddy.

Good boy.

Hey.

Hey.

Did you forget something, or--

Ah, yeah.

I forgot to tell you not
to take this whole office

thing too seriously, Lou.

Well, that's easy to say.

But if you can give up on us
working together after one day,

what happens if we--

What?

If we what?

If-- I don't know, we--

live together?
Or something?

You know?

Like a regular couple?

Are you-- are you just going
to pack up and leave

at the first sign of trouble?

Listen-- as you know, I
do have some faults.

I hum, I meddle--

there's actually a few
that you don't even know

about, to tell you the truth.

But there's one thing for sure--

come here.

I'm not throwing in the towel here.

You can call me crazy, but we
will never be a regular couple,

because you are way too
extraordinary a woman

to let a regular guy
like me drag you down.

I'm here to be honest with you, Ash.

You don't have to say anything.

My mom told me all about it.

You know that I'm going back to broncs?

Broncs?

I'm talking about the sponsorship money.

My mom told me you paid it all back.

Oh.

I was planning on telling you.

I was just waiting for the right time.

And when would that be?

I don't know.

When you started talking to me again.

When you smiled at me.

I just didn't want it to be about money.

I was sort of hoping you'd stop
hating me all on your own.

Maybe what my mom says is true.

Maybe you aren't some no good rodeo guy.

No, I'm not.

And your mom, well--

she ain't so bad, either.

Yeah.

She has her moments.

Oh-- you know, it's not fair.

What she did is totally wrong,
but the way she is now--

I can't be mad at her anymore.

Come on, Ty.

I'll show you how to get a bottle ready.

I was really hoping this would work.

I appreciate you coming out
here, and everything.

I mean, after--

Yeah.

I know.

Things got a little weird between us.

But it's great about Ty, hey?

Hm?

Getting accepted at two universities?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it is.

Look at her.

She just keeps pushing him away.

No, I don't think so.

That's what mares do to
get foals to suckle.

Oh, wow.

Wow.

Look at him go.

Hey.

Maybe that little guy will
turn out to be the world's

greatest barrel horse, huh?

Mm.

By the way, the, uh, fridge
stopped working a few days ago.

And that hole in the roof--

the one you supposedly fixed--

not happening.

Oh, here.

Let me give you a hand
with that, Miss Stanton.

Thank you.

For everything.

It's weird.

I'm, uh-- really going
to miss this place.

No, you're not.

Get outta here.

The thing is I'm a bit overextended.

You know, Ty's off with Scott,
and we both know that Caleb's

on the circuit half the time.

And-- well, truth of the matter is--

You're offering me a job?

Like, ranch foreman?

I don't give a damn what
title you give yourself.

I hate to say this, but
the cattle business,

for a man your age--

I could see that coming.

Yeah, well, that sounds good
coming from a guy who decided

to go back to steer wrestling.

I would have done it, too.

Except--

The shoulder?

Oh.

Well, I can say the same thing
for myself, if it wasn't--

Yours arthritis?

So if I'm going to be foreman, we

might as well move the
cattle back to Big River,

the way things used to be.

Except instead of you paying
me back, now I'm paying you.

Well, that's-- one way of looking at it.

Yeah.

Of course, if your cows are
going to be eating my grass,

I'd have to charge you a grazing lease.

And my salary.

Don't forget my salary.

It's been a rough couple days, huh?

Yeah.

Until you showed up.

You were amazing.

I'm not sure I'll ever get
horses the way you do.

But I think I'm starting to understand

what vets have to go through.

And I think I can handle it.

Yeah.

That's what Kit told me.

She said you got accepted
to two universities.

You told her, but you didn't tell me?

It's easy to tell her.

It doesn't mean anything.

It doesn't change anything.

But telling you that I'm moving away--

that we won't be working
together, that I won't

get to see you every morning.

That we can't be together.

That's not so easy.

And I guess I still don't
really know ho tell you,

because I'm doing a lousy job of it.

No, you're not.

You're doing just fine.

Hey.

We're going to make it work, okay?

No matter what happens,
we'll get through it.
