All language subtitles for Dr Quinn S05E08

Morning, Horace.

Morning, Dr. Mike.

I'd like you to send this letter to my
sister.

Sure.

What's this?

Um, send it to Myra, the rest of her
things.

What for?

Nothing to be sorry about.

Just plaiting around the place.

Figured I'd send them to her instead of
throwing them out.

You mean she didn't ask you to send
them?

No.

Horace, when did you last correspond
with her?

A while.

She stopped sending letters.

Have you written to her?

Nothing to say.

Her wedding dress.

What?

That's all behind me.

I'm just trying to forget her.

What about Samantha?

She's your daughter.

Excuse me, Dr. Michael.

I got work to do.

Excuse me, sir.

Are you all right?

Barbara. I'm a doctor. I can help you.

I'm rich.

I'm rich, I tell you.

What happened?

He's alive, but his pulse is weak. Who
is he? I don't know.

Come on, help me get him inside.

Don't worry. You're safe here.

How are you feeling?

You're dehydrated. You need a drink.

My name's Dr.

Michaela Quinn, and this is my son,
Brian.

Hello.

Finish fixing up the bed in the recovery
room. Thank you, Brian.

What's your name?

Do you want me to open the window?

I can pay.

Don't worry about that.

You must be exhausted. What you need to
do is get some rest.

I can pay.

Who is he? I don't know. He wouldn't
tell us his name.

So he's got any family around here?

No. He doesn't talk much.

Just said he could pay and then show us
the golden nugget he found.

Golden nugget?

Yeah. Big one. About the size of my
hand.

Where did he get it?

I wouldn't say.

I thought the gold was all panned out in
these parts.

Must have struck a new vein.

Man's rich.

Is he going to register his claim?

I don't know.

He's pretty thick.

Must have got a bad heart.

Ain't fair.

Man's probably been looking for gold all
his life and finally finds it. Hard

gives out on us.

Who's that?

That is a photograph of my family.

This is my father, my mother, these are
my sisters.

And that's me.

And that's my baby. She must be hungry.

Will you excuse me?

I will turn in a moment.

Try to get some rest.

Yeah,

take a look.

Right out of here.

I need a haircut and a shave.

Among other things.

Have a seat.

Looks like we left the house in a little
hurry this morning.

I can pay?

Good.

I don't need no barbershop.

I'm rich, I tell you.

Whatever you say.

How big?

The size of your hand.

That's a big nugget. Where did you find
it?

I told you.

She didn't say.

He's probably going to want to register
the claim with Horace.

Is that Horace?

That old man's going to register his
claim with you.

Now listen, when he does, pay strict
attention. It's important we know...

on. You both know that if he registers
the claim, it would be against the law

for you to jump in.

Chump it? Who said anything about
chumpin' it?

We just want to know where it is so as
we can look around nearby.

Yeah, we wouldn't dare think about
breaking the law, Sheriff.

Don't matter, because I wouldn't tell
you anyway.

All gold claims are confidential.

Ah, horse!

We're only trying to protect ourselves.

From what? From outsiders.

Why, when the word of this spreads,
every prospector in the territory is

to be heading this way.

Excuse me.

Are we never going to be able to get him
to tell us where that claim is?

We won't have to.

Let's follow him.

There you go.

Good as new.

Now, let's see what we can do about
finding you some clothes to wear.

Can't have you traipsing around town.

Don't make it, Liz. It's Jake.

Is this your idea of a joke?

Oh, there you are.

I've been looking all over for you. You
gave me quite a start.

Oh, I, uh, I needed a shave.

Yes, I see.

Oh, I see that you've regained some of
your strength.

My family and I, we have a place that's
out of town.

Would you care to join us for dinner
tonight?

Who are you?

What you looking at?

I need to show you.

I thought you just got one earlier.

Hey, me.

What's wrong, Phil?

A number of things.

In addition to dehydration and a very
weak heart, it appears he has senile

dementia.

What's that?

Well, when people get older, they don't
remember things as clearly, which is

normal. But with senile dementia, well,
the memory loss becomes much more

severe. And as the condition worsens,
people no longer remember their families

or even themselves.

Is there anything you can do for him?

Afraid not.

He's a very sick man.

Lucide!

I'm starving.

Certainly.

Everything's ready.

You feeling better, Mr... Them carrots?

Yeah. Do you like carrots?

Don't you go eating all them carrots.

I just wanted a few.

I could get you some more carrots if you
like.

Ain't for me.

For Penelope.

Is Penelope a friend of yours?

You.

You're about the only friend I got.

Where is she now?

I don't remember.

Oh, wait.

Dry Creek.

Cedar Butte.

She just gave out.

I buried her and started walking.

Found gold the next day.

There's more. There's more, too.

And I'm going to dig up every ounce.

I'll show them what Lucius Slicker's
made of.

It's your father, isn't it?

Used to be.

When did you last see him?

A long time ago.

Pittsburgh.

Family had a little barbershop there.

Well, he's over at the clinic. I'm sure
he'd like to see you. The man who ran

out on us?

I don't think so.

He liked his whiskey.

Ma finally had enough. She left when I
was seven.

Jimmy and Lucinda, they weren't hardly
out of diapers, so I ended up taking

of them.

Alone? Of course. He wasn't going to
help out. Never did.

Even when the kids were sick, he wasn't
around.

When they got worse, I went to the
saloon. He told me to go back home and

care of them.

He'd go for help.

But he forgot all about it.

Jimmy died that night and descended the
next morning.

A few days later, he left for good. Came
out west to look for gold.

I know this is difficult for you, but
he's an old man now. And he's very sick.

Is he dying?

He has a very weak heart.

Well, let me know when he's gone so I
can celebrate.

Now we stop at Cedar Butte.

From the crooked stump.

Along the water to the second aspen.

Then cross the humpback ridge.

Humpback ridge.

That it?

The sign here.

Thanks, Horace.

Come on.

We'll get back to the clinic.

Here.

Ma says you should drink.

So, your drink's full.

You don't really look like him.

I know he hasn't come by to see you yet,
but... I'm sure he's glad you came

back.

Open the window, boy.

No. Jake, you should at least go see
him. I've already seen him.

He came all this way. It's a wonder he
made it this far. Ever since he left,

I've been waiting.

Wondering if I was ever going to run
into him again.

I looked him dead in the eye.

Even told him my name. He didn't know
me.

Might as well be a stranger.

You can help him, Jake.

The dementia's affected his memory. He
just doesn't remember.

I do. I do!

So, if you don't mind, I'd just as soon
never look at his face again.

Jake!

But he's your pa.

You've got to make things right with
him.

Just because a man has children doesn't
mean he's a father.

Hell, look at yours.

Anybody in there?

Excuse me.

Where are you going?

It's all right. I'm not going to hurt
you.

He's over here.

Come on, let me help you.

Oh, Mr. Slicker, you've got to stop
running off like this.

You stay away from me.

Nobody's going to hurt you.

I've got to get back to my plane.

Robert E., do you mind if we borrow your
mail?

Sure. Mr. Slicker, I know everything you
have to do. Do you think she'd like

that?

What's going on here?

We were just about to meet Penelope.

That is, if it's all right with Mrs.
Slicker.

Remember me?

It's Jake.

Your son.

Do you see what I mean?

Keep talking. He'll hear you.

So you finally hit gold.

After all these years.

Funny, how things work out, I end up
here, open my own barbershop.

It's been a long time since I last seen
you.

I still remember the day you left.

So you can't hear me.

Would you come back, Paul, to tell me
you're sorry?

Don't you think it's a little late for
that, pal?

You're just like the rest of them.

All you want is my gold.

What?

That claim's mine.

You stay away from it. I don't care
about your gold! Go on!

Go on, get out of my way. Go on.

Don't worry.

Here, I tried.

You happy now?

I'm rich!

You hear me?

Rich!

gonna die?

He suffered a rupture of the heart and a
coma.

I don't know for how long.

I'd like to stay here tonight to monitor
his condition.

I'll keep Katie with me.

He looks so peaceful just laying there.

I think he figures it's time to stop
fighting.

Time to let go.

Anything?

Yeah.

Rocks, dirt, and more rock.

You luck down there, Horace?

It's a heck of a coincidence, ain't it?
I mean, us winding up in the same spot

as you and all.

Do you think my pa will forget me?

Of course not.

Do you think I'll ever see him again?

Sure, why?

I've been thinking.

If he gets to be like Jake's pa, he
might forget about me and Colleen and

Matthew.

I want him to know that he's still our
pa, even though he ran off and left us.

I want him to know that I'm not angry at
him anymore.

Well, why don't you tell him?

Write him a letter. Let him know how you
feel.

That way he won't ever forget.

What now?

Where have you been? I was trying to
find him, I thought.

Why, is he dead?

No, he suffered a rupture of the heart.
He's in a coma.

He's still alive, Jake.

I'm not sure for how much longer.

You saw what happened yesterday.

Nothing I see or do is going to help
him.

When my father died, it was all very
sudden.

So much I took for granted, so many
things I put off telling him.

What I wouldn't give to have one moment
back with him.

To say all the things I meant to say.

It's not too late, Jake.

You still have time to put your mind at
ease.

If you change your mind,

I don't think you'll live out the day.

I had it with you.

What, did you find something?

Wherever that old man found that nugget,
it ain't in these parts.

Horace, we're going back to town.

Fine.

You coming?

Nope.

There ain't no gold here, Horace.

Plenty. Just got to find it.

What do you think you're doing, Horace?

What are you trying to prove?

Ain't trying to prove nothing.

Just looking for gold is all.

She's trying to get rich.

That's right.

Think the way to get her back.

Why? Been a long time since we've seen
him.

Just thought I'd write and tell him how
we're doing.

Tom working for the Gazette now.

Cleen's gotten off to college.

I figured you might want to write
something, too.

I don't think so.

Why not?

Look, Brian.

If you want to write a letter to Paul,
you go ahead.

After all he's done to us, I'll be happy
if I never see his face again.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Sometimes I forget what Pa looks like.

Don't even remember what Ma looked like.

Yeah.

Brian.

You, um...

You tell Polly I said hello.

Hey, boy.

Come here.

I want to tell you something.

I got to get my mom.

Not much time.

Come here.

I found it, son.

Gold.

And I want you to have it.

But you got to promise me something
first.

Sure.

Bury me next to Penelope.

What? Under the oaks.

By the dry creek bed.

About five miles south of Cedar Butte.

You promise?

I promise.

Wasn't no father to you.

I wished I'd been.

Just wasn't strong enough.

But you turned out good, Jake.

I'm proud of you.

Open the window.

Jake, are you in there?

Well, Dr.

Horry, I guess this plane passes down to
Jake, whatever it's worth.

Not at the barbershop.

How about we look around town and see if
anyone's seen him? He's probably on one

of his benders.

We'll have to make the funeral
arrangements ourselves.

I guess we can hold services at the
cemetery tomorrow.

No.

He wanted to be buried next to Penelope.

Penelope? His mule.

I told you, he woke up just before he
died.

He asked me to bury him next to
Penelope.

Ryan, we don't know where she was
buried.

Yes, we do.

He told me where to find her.

I know how important that is.

But his mind, he didn't remember.

Yes, he did.

I can find her.

I know I can.

I gave him my word.

I tell you what.

We'll go look for her. If we can't find
her, we'll bring Lucius back here and

we'll bury him by the church.

I'm closed.

I just wanted to tell you.

Your pa passed on a little while ago.

I'm sorry.

I got something for you.

You keep it. No.

I was with him just before he died.

He wanted you to have it.

He told you to give that to me.

You're the reason he came back.

He wanted to see you again.

Take it back.

He said he wished he could have been a
better father. I don't want to. He would

die for the things he does. The man
didn't even know me. Because he was

He didn't remember. He never remembered.
He thought I was you.

Take it back.

He called me Jake.

Did you hear me?

I don't want anything from him!

This fell out of your pocket.

I'm sorry about yelling at you.

And for what I said about your pa.

There is something you could do.

There's the creek bed.

Look.

Penelope's grave.

Found some flowers you go ahead

I'll

uh put these back in the wagon.

I'll come with you

Brian. Did he say anything else to you?

Just that.

He wasn't much of a

father to you.

Because he wasn't strong enough.

I guess I wasn't much of a son either.

He said you turned out good.

Said he was proud of you.

What are you going to put on the marker?

Here lies Lucius Slicker, husband of
Eleanor, father of James

and Jacob.

Wait, stop here for a second.

Whoa.

Horace, can you send this letter for me?

Sure. It's to my pa.

I haven't talked to him in a long time.

All set?

Let's go home.

Alzheimer's disease, the most common
form of what was once called senile

dementia, was first identified in 1906.

Its cause is still unknown, and no
effective treatment exists.
