Previously on When Calls the Heart

It's oil!

We're gonna be rich!

I'd like to buy your
land and look for oil.

What makes you think

I don't wanna do the same thing?

We both know that you don't
have the money to dig.

We need judges that are tough.

You mean like you.

I see you've met my niece, Allie.

I just don't think
making excuses for Allie

is helpful to her.

Do you think they're onto us?

If they weren't before, they are now.

It is said there is a
time for everything.

And right now in Hope Valley
it's a time of uncertainty

for many of us.

I hope to open a library in town,

Henry Gowen hopes to strike oil,

and some of my friends
are hoping for something

they've yet put into words.

Life isn't always easy or fair,

But the time for answers will
eventually come to us all.

The children are already asking

if they can donate their used books,

they're really excited.

Not more than you.

That's true.

When is the next town council meeting?

- Eight days.
- Well.

Lee has already told me
he is firmly pro library.

So you can count on his vote.

Well, that's good.

I'm not sure how the others will vote.

Does Lee have any idea?

Oh! Are those new shoes?

They are beautiful.

Rosemary, I've had them forever.

I hear everyone would like a library.

They just don't want to pay for one.

Where's Henry?

He had to leave while
it was still light out.

But he said he is going to dock his pay.

That's hardly the point.
I need him here.

I understand.

This oil business is starting
to impact his job performance.

Hard enough to do one job
well, let alone two.

Oh well.

At least you're still here.

Right, Michael?

Yep. I'm right here, boss.

$200.

It gives me the right to
drill on your property.

And if you do?

Read it.

If I strike oil, then
you'll receive 30 percent

of whatever crude is brought
up from the rigs in your land.

Hold on a second.

Sure.

$200.

Shh. I think I can get more.

How?

It's called negotiation. Watch.

Two hundred seems a mite low.

Well, it's what I've
offered everyone else.

But my parcel's bigger than most.

Kurt Lawson's property adjoins yours,

is that right?

That's right.

Well, thank you for your time.

We'll take it!

205 it is.

205?

You strike a hard bargain.

Is that another new dress?

My mom bought it for me with the
money she got from Mr. Gowen.

It's so pretty.

Thanks!

Good morning, everyone.

Who would like to have some fun today?

Me!

Very good!

Because the fun we'll be
having today is math.

But we'll be having fun because
we'll be working in teams.

So everyone find three friends
and we can get started.

Opal!

Let's be a group.

Wanna be in our group?

Mm, sure.

All right everyone,

now the problem you'll
be solving is this:

if each one of you in your group
leaves Hope Valley at 9:00 am,

to get to a town that's 30 miles away,

and one of you is travelling
by train, one by car,

one by horse, and one of you is walking,

what time will you get there?

You may begin.

I am going to work on the horse.

Michael, do you have the harvest
projections for the east block?

Right here.

Thank you.

Think we'll have any trouble
logging this by next Friday?

I can't see why.

Unless the weather turns,
that might slow things down.

What is this?

"The Fundamentals of Oil Drilling?"

Oh, that.

"Oh, that?"

Is this Henry's book, or yours?

He needed a hand with his oil well.

I've only been helping him
outside of work hours.

Michael, this contract is
really important to us.

I need your eyes above ground this week.

Absolutely.

That's exactly where they are.

Good.

Ugh!

Pickled herring is ten
cents more than last week.

That's highway robbery.

What is that?

It's a community board.

Mr. Yost said I could put it up.

Do you think anyone will use it?

Oh, I know they will.

You're looking for a telephone operator.

Yep.

We have so much cash all of a sudden.

It beats being paid with chickens.

Well, I don't know about that,

I'm... rather fond of chickens.

Are you, now?

What else are you fond of?

Eggs.

Yeah. Is that it?

Bacon... Jam.

Especially homemade jam.

Mm-hmm.

Anything else?

Well, there is this certain
doctor that I'm quite fond of.

Hmm.

I'm gonna take this cash to the bank.

Oh, and I'll pick up the
mail on the way back.

Right.

Faith, about that.

Did you hear anything
back from your father?

I tried writing him a letter, but I...

tore it up three times.

So you never wrote to him.

After being out of touch for so long,

I just... didn't know what to say.

Hello?

Sheriff Avery, is that you?

I have a call for you from Mr. Coulter.

Florence, what are you
doing on the switchboard?

Isn't it exciting?

Fiona is training me to be an operator.

Since when?

Since this morning.

Can you believe it?

I'm already getting the
hang of it, sort of.

I mean there are a lot of wires and...
thinga-ma-jigs.

But it's not as difficult
as I thought it would be.

Please hold. I will connect you now.

Mr. Coulter?

Mr. Coulter? Are you there?

Lee!

It's faster to walk here than
to wait for the phone call

to be put through.

Kurt Lawson locked his gate.

What do you mean?

Well, apparently Richard
Wolf got an oil option

and Kurt didn't.

So Kurt got upset and locked his gate

now I can't get to my wood lot.

And I have a huge order due next week.

What does Kurt's gate have
to do with your wood lot?

Here, I'll show you.

Can you believe that Kurt Lawson?

I always said he was a hothead.

Florence?

Not that it's any of my business.

This is Kurt Lawson's farm.

This is Richard Wolf's.
They are right next door.

This is my wood lot.

Kurt has the only
access to the main road

for all three properties.

But he has always left the gate open.

Until today.

Hello Clara.

Hello.

I need a dress for next weekend.

Something fancy, but not too fancy.

I'm taking Anna to see the
ballet in Union City.

Well, I can't promise
anything Miss Hayford,

we're already behind on orders as it is.

What did you have in mind?

Something sleek and modern.

Why don't you come back later

and I will draw something up for you.

Anna will need a dress too.

Of course.

I'll be back.

HmmMmm.

Rosemary, why are you promising
such quick turnaround?

You are going to run
yourself into the ground.

I can handle it.

Hello Henry.

So, I'm headed to Kurt's place.

- Are you?
- HmmMmm.

You do realize the mess you've created

with these options of yours.

Pinning neighbour against
neighbour is now

affecting my business.

Well, Kurt works for you, doesn't he?

Tell him you are going to cut him loose

unless he starts acting right.

I don't want it to come to that.

Kurt's a good worker, he's
not thinking straight.

And you could have avoided
the whole situation

if you just offered him the
same deal you offered Wolf.

I'm not in the business
to give money away

and I already had the
option to Wolf's place

so Lawson's isn't of any
special value to me.

Thank you, Henry.

Okay.

Allie, why aren't you with your group?

I like working alone.

Well, it's a very difficult problem.

Which is why I assigned
you to work in groups.

So you can help each other with it.

But I finished.

What do you mean?

I did all of them.

You got everyone right.

It wasn't that hard.

Allie, this is...

This is exceptional work.

But you were supposed to
be working with your team.

But I didn't need their help.

Maybe they needed yours.

All right everyone,
please turn in your work.

Good afternoon, Kurt.

We'd like you to open this gate.

I'd be happy to, Constable Grant.

As soon as Richard pays the toll.

The what?

It'll be 50 cents each way for Richard.

A dollar a day?

You can afford it, with what Mr.
Gowen's paying you for your oil.

This is your employee,
will you talk to him?

Kurt, come on.

You gotta be reasonable.

How's this?

I'll drop the toll after
we reach a hundred bucks.

That's half of what Mr.
Gowen paid Richard.

My half.

I'm not paying you anything.

The gate stays locked.

You have to leave the gate open, Kurt.

You can't expect our guys to
sit around and wait for you

to open it every time
they need to get through.

You can fire me if you want to, Mr.
Coulter.

It's a matter of principal.

Hey Timmy.

Hey Robert. What's going on?

Your dad wants my dad to pay every time

we go through the gate.

Why?

They didn't have to do that before.

Good question.

Run along back to the house, Timmy.

Let me handle this.

When kids get into fights,

Mrs. Thornton just makes 'em
sit in separate corners.

Yeah, and they're not allowed to leave

until they're ready to say sorry.

Okay, how about this?

Leave the gate open for 24 hours,

and everybody just cool down.

We'll figure this out.

24 hours.

And then I'm locking it again.

Bill, if I can't get my logs through,

I'm gonna lose one of the biggest
contracts I've ever had.

Come on, let's go.

Clara, what do you think
about adding princess seams?

Well, it would look nice.

But, it's going to take extra time,

and with all of these new orders,

I'm already behind.

Rosemary, do you have those
sketches to show me?

Oh, yes.

Mm-Hmm, right here.

Sleek and modern.

Just as you requested.

Oh. It's a bit plain.

And I don't think that hemline
would do my ankles any favours.

I... I can make those changes,

just give me a few moments.

Wonderful.

Hmm-mm.

Are you sure everything is all right?

Yes. Yes, I'm fine.

Why does everyone keep asking me that?

So? How did I do?

You... did okay.

What?

You don't think it went well?

It's more a question of propriety.

I can assure you, I value
propriety above all else.

Well, the telephone
company has strict rules

about how operators should
interact with the public.

What rules?

Well, when you're placing
a call for someone,

you shouldn't ask them

what they're planning
on cooking for dinner.

Oh, that was just Molly.

Molly and I always compare
what food we're preparing.

Fine.

I understand.

Hi, can I help you?

Ah, I see I'm too late.
You're finished for the day.

Oh, do you need to place a call?

Actually, Fiona, I need
help finding a number.

Hmm.

Everything checks out.

Your heart, lungs, pulse.

You are in perfect health.

Really?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Usually people think this
is good news, Rosemary.

It's just...

Something's not quite right.

How are you sleeping?

I know living next door to
a newborn can be noisy.

No, little Jack is nothing but a joy.

It's Lee's snoring
that's keeping me awake.

Have you talked to Lee
about your feeling

that something's not right?

No.

Well, then, what I recommend is a
healthy dose of communication.

Communication won't change what's wrong.

No, but it might lessen the pain.

That's my recommendation as
your physician and your friend.

Congratulations.

Excuse me?

On the library.

Not yet.

Oh.

I just figured if I found a space

then the town council would
have a more concrete estimate

of the cost.

Perhaps there's an element
of positive thinking

going on there as well.

Perhaps.

As a gambler, I live and die on that.

And as a teacher, I hope
my students never have to.

Well, good luck.

Every town needs a library.

I couldn't agree more.

Good day to you, Mr. Bouchard.

Please.

It's Lucas.

We've got about eight hours until
Kurt locks the gate again.

And five days until I
have to deliver my order.

I just can't have any more setbacks.

I'll figure something out.

I hope so.

This is one stress I just
do not need right now.

What are you looking for?

There's a territorial log
book around here, somewhere.

Just haven't had much
use for it recently.

Wait a minute... oh, yeah.

There it is.

We should head to the office.

Wouldn't want Lee to get upset.

Yeah.

Oh, what do they say, Henry?

Third time lucky?

300th time has got to be extra luck.

Yeah.

I'm sure we're working
towards a 400th by now.

But who's countin'?

Let it drop.

Now, bring it back up.

So, I've been looking at other parcels.

Oh, really?

Yeah!

This time, I'm thinking ten
acres of prime farmable land.

You mean not as rocky?

Exactly.

Well, with the extra money
we got from Henry...

We struck oil!

It's a gusher!

Did you hear me?!

It's a gusher!

Yeah!

Yes!

Well done.

Congratulations!

I can't believe it.

That geologist made it sound
like striking oil on our land

wasn't likely.

Maybe Mr. Gowen got lucky.

The Gowen I know didn't
have much use for luck.

We messed up.

We have each other.

And we have enough to
start planning our lives.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

It appears as if you've
made a wise investment.

Let's just keep that
between us, shall we?

I get more than enough attention
around town as it is.

Fiona!

- Hi!
- Hello!

What's... what's all
the commotion about?

Didn't you hear?

Henry Gowen struck oil.

Now everyone in town wants in on it.

Mr. Yost says at this rate,

his shelves will be bare by tomorrow.

Oh, what exactly is everyone
in such a hurry to buy?

Shovels, pickaxes, hoes, steel rods,

anything that will
help them dig for oil.

I thought you needed expensive
equipment for that.

Apparently, not for surface oil.

Hmm.

Say, if you're out here, who's
operating the switchboard?

Oh, I hired Florence Blakely.

Oh, that's wonderful!

How's she doing?

You know, kind of, uh,
a work in progress.

Oh, excuse me.

Hmm-mm.

Hi. So good news. I
called that number...

Hope Valley Central.

How may I direct your call?

Rosemary Coulter.

Please hold.

Hello?

I have a call for Rosemary.

Florence? You rang my office.

Oh. Ooops!

What?

Oh, uh, I'm sorry!

No!

Oh, uh!

Ahhhh!!!!!

Oh!

What happened?

I... I can't do this.

What?

Florence?

Florence!

Wait!

Stop.

I just ruined your switchboard.

I can fix it, easy as pie.

I'm not cut out to be
a telephone operator.

Well, I think you're a natural.

How's that?

It seems to me like you've been
in the communication business

for some time.

I have a confession.

What's that?

I've never had a job before.

Well, there's a first
time for everything.

Constable Grant!

Mrs. Thornton.

Can this wait?

I have a matter to attend to.

It's about Allie.

I was hoping to talk to you.

Okay, I'll come by.

Well, well, well. Look who it is.

The man of the hour.

I don't know about that.

Oh, you don't have to be modest, Henry.

You're a big success now.

It might cause me a few headaches,

if I'm being honest,
but that's all right.

You've earned it.

Thank you.

Well, I, uh... about that.

You don't have to beat around
the bush with me, Henry.

You're here to quit.

Yes.

I wanna thank you for
all you've done for me.

I know we got off on the
wrong foot a few years back.

I take the blame for that.

I'd like to think that we've done

some good things together since.

We've come a long way, you and I.

Haven't we?

Well, thank you, Henry, for everything.

And I wish you nothing
but the best of luck.

Thank you, Lee.

Say, Henry, um...

you know, we don't get too
many opportunities in life,

to start over.

My advice?

Make the most of this one.

It's callled easy by necessity

It says if a piece of
land is landlocked,

the owner can't be prevented

from accessing that land by road.

But the road's on my land.

Doesn't matter. You can't charge Mr.
Wolf for access.

So they pump the oil from his land,

transport it across my property?

He gets paid and I get nothing?

That is the law, Kurt.

I won't stand for this.

They haven't even found
oil on my land yet.

Gowen found it on his land.

He'll find it on yours soon enough.

Why else would he send
all that money your way?

Sheriff Avery can wrap this up

in all the legal jargon he wants to.

No matter how you slice
it, it's not fair.

If I can find a lawyer I will.

You're fighting about oil?

With all due respect, Mrs. Thornton,

this doesn't concern you.

Your boys go to my school.

You don't think this affects them?

I'm just trying to get my
fair share of an oil option

Mr. Gowen gave to Richard.

So you're threatening
to take him to court.

I have to stand up for what's right.

For what's right or what
makes you the most money?

Look, I'm a teacher but
so are you, Mr. Lawson.

Every day at home you're setting
an example of how to be.

You're better than this.

Is that a problem?

No, but... I'm not just teaching
my students English and Math.

I want them to learn how
to get along in the world.

And part of that is learning
how to work together.

Okay.

I agree with that.

So, how can I help?

Well, perhaps if I
knew more about Allie,

I could help address her needs.

Uh, what do you mean exactly?

For starters, could you
tell me about her family?

My sister passed when Allie was four.

Her dad, he... he wasn't around much.

He eventually just left.

I dunno, maybe the thought
of raising her on his own

scared him off.

And what about her grandparents?

That's just my mom.

And she's too old to raise a young girl.

So it's really just been you
and Allie moving around a lot.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's her in a nutshell.

Allie has experienced a lot of loss.

I believe she pushes people away
before they have the chance

to get close to her.

Why would she do something like that?

To protect herself?

If she pushes people away,
she doesn't have to worry...

She doesn't have to worry
about losing them.

Okay, all right, well
what do you suggest?

Just keep doing what you're doing,

and I'll do whatever I can

to make sure Allie feels
valued and included in school.

She's a very bright young girl.

We won't give up on her.

You look pretty good with that law
book in your hand there, Bill.

Hardly.

From what I saw today, I think
you'd make a good judge.

It's not whether I could
do the job or not.

What is it?

I signed up for the
Mounties for a reason.

You thought you looked
good in red surge?

I look great in a red surge.

No, seriously.

When I was a boy our
town was in bad shape.

Gangs, bandits.

My mother wouldn't even let
us play in the street.

And one day we got a new sheriff.

He stood up to these outlaws.

He risked his life and he
drove them out of town.

He was a good man.

I'm sure he was.

What happened to him?

He passed. Old age.

I was 17 at the time.

I signed up with the
Mounties three months later.

You wanted to be a lawman, like him.

He made a difference in a
lot of people's lives.

Well, the way I see it,

there is more than one way to do that.

By becoming a judge, you get
a chance to right wrongs.

You punish the guilty,
protect the innocent.

I think maybe you should
try on that robe,

see how it feels.

You're never going to
catch me in one of those.

Not as flattering as red surge?

Not even close.

Fair enough.

Hi.

Okay.

So, you're sure this is the guy, right?

It's the only David Carter
listed in Hamilton.

It must be him.

Ready for me to put you through?

Yeah. Thanks, Fiona.

Hello?

I have a call for Mr. David Carter.

Okay, put him through.

Hello, yes.

Mr. Carter, this is
Doctor Carson Shepherd

from Hope Valley.

I work with your daughter, Faith.

Hey sweetheart.

I'm so sorry that I'm late.

I just, I couldn't get out
of the office tonight.

Is that pork roast?

Ohhh!

You are the best!

Well, we've both been so busy,

I thought it would be nice to
have a quiet dinner together.

Mmm.

And I thought there was
something we should talk about.

Oh, absolutely.

Absolutely.

I'm sorry about the files,
I'll clean that up later,

I promise, I just...

Things went sideways at the mill today.

Henry quit, which I expected, but still,

that means all his work is
gonna end up on my plate

and then Kurt, he's so upset, I just..

I'm worried that I'm
gonna lose him next.

And then there's this gate fiasco.

I thought Kurt agreed to open the gate.

Oh, he did, but who knows for how long?

And then to top it all off, the
customer with the big order?

Now they want the shipment

two days earlier than we agreed upon,

so I've had to call in every
favour I've got with the railroad.

I mean... It's just been a real day.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.
That sounds awful.

Yeah, well, nothing
worthwhile is easy, right?

Look at me! I'm so sorry to carry on.

Come here.

What is it you wanted to talk about?

Uh, nothing.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Just some stuff at the dress shop.

I hope you're hungry.

Oh, I'm starving.

Absolutely famished, oh.

Allie!

What are you doing over
here all by yourself?

I just felt like reading.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland!

That's one of my favourites.

Mine too.

The story of a curious young
girl who set out in search

of a fantastic new world.

And almost lost her head for it.

You sure you don't want to go play

with the other children?

Allie, I know it's been hard for you,

moving around from town to town.

Before you have the
chance to make friends,

you have to pick up and leave again.

I don't mind it.

I like being alone.

Bet you didn't always feel that way.

You're funny and intelligent,

and anyone would love to be your friend.

I see the way they look at me.

Besides, I wouldn't know what to say.

Just be you.

Now, come on.

Let's go see what the others are up to.

No thanks.

I'm good right here.

You're a liar! And a cheat!

And I'm not gonna let
you get away with this!

I am not reneging on anything!

The contract clearly states that
I only pay additional funds

to option holders if I
drill on their property.

I'm drilling on my property.

I don't owe you a nickel!

You looked me in the eye and said

I get 30 percent of all oil revenues.

If I find oil on your
property, not mine!

All I'm asking is that you
start drilling on my property.

Why would I do that?

Forget the contract.

I'll hire my own drillers.

You just found yourself
a competitor, Henry.

That would not be a wise move.

I own the mineral rights
to your land as well as

most of the rest of the valley.

That means you own the surface
rights to your property.

I own everything underneath.

And please raise your hands
if you have any questions.

You forgot to carry the two.

Thanks.

Math can be like walking near quicksand.

One mistake and you're sunk.

I guess you're right.

- Lee?
- Yeah?

I have the regional manager

from the National Pacific
Railroad on the line.

Thank you, Florence!

Putting him through.

Okay, promise me you'll try

and keep an open mind about this.

An open mind about what?

Why all the secrecy?

Excuse me, Doctor Shepherd?

Ready for the Hamilton call?

Yes.

Hamilton?

Okay, hear me out.

I found your father's telephone number.

And I think you should talk to him.

No.

Oh, Carson, I can't. It's
been so many years, I can't.

I know, Faith.

He's your father and he loves you.

Just give him a chance.

I have a call for David Carter.

Uh, yes, this is David Carter.

Hold for David Carter.

Hello?

Hello Faith. Is that you?

Hi Dad.

I've missed you sweetheart.

Yeah, I've missed you too.

I'm glad you called.
