O -C -U, no, O -C -C -U -R -R -E -D.

That's right, two C's and two R's. Two
C's, two R's.

Phenomenon. P -H -E -N -O -M -E -N -O
-N. Good.

Give me a harder word.

Um... Annihilate. Well, that's not hard.

A -N -N -I -H -I -L -A -T -E.

Oh, there you are, sweetheart.

You're up now.

You got a nice, long sleep.

Ma, was that right?

I'm sorry, Brian, I didn't hear you.

Ooh, you're wet.

Is that when you were crying?

A -N -N -I -H -I -L -A -T -E.

I'm going to give you a nice, warm bath.

Would you like that?

Ma. Oh, Brian, um...

Well, we'll continue with this tomorrow.

But the spelling bee's tomorrow.

You're going to be there, aren't you? Of
course, I wouldn't miss it.

Why don't you finish with your chores,
and we'll do some more drills later

I get Katie in bed.

Oh, look at you, with your big bright
eyes, watching everything.

Hey, Brian.

Hey, Sully.

Matthew!

What's going on?

Just came by to see if you could give me
a hand. I had to arrest one of the

Watson boys.

Why's that?

He stole a cow.

A cow?

One cow?

That's right.

Did he slaughter it? Yeah.

The town was going to hang Ingrid's
brother when he stole a cow because his

family was starving the way I remember
it.

You helped him out because you were his
friend.

Well, I ain't going to hang this fella,
but I do got to keep him in jail for a

few days.

Matthew, his family's having a hard time
right now. They really need him. What

am I supposed to do?

I can't have folks running around
breaking the law and getting away with

But, Matthew... I just came by to see if
you'd check in on Watson while I'm

away.

Where are you going?

Cascade Valley.

Why's that?

The Danforth Company's having some
trouble up that way. They wired me for

Danforth Company?

They're building something out that way,
and their supplies are getting

hijacked.

Well, when are you going to be back?

Shouldn't be long. As soon as I get
things under control, probably by the

the week.

Maybe I better go with you.

I can handle it.

You be careful.

Sully, I can take care of this.

Here you are, gentlemen.

Where's the rest of the money?

You'll get the balance when the job is
completed.

How long will it take to get to this
place?

What's it called?

Cascade Valley.

Half a day if we move pretty quickly.

What's going on at the Cascade Valley?

Business. What kind of business?

The Danforth Company is going to build a
dam above the Cascade River.

Danforth. We're going to flood the
Cascade Valley.

He can't do that.

Apparently he can.

Well, that's the winter feeding ground
for most of the elk in this area.

Won't be in the future. They're going to
have to find somewhere else to dine.

It's also one of the most beautiful
valleys in the territory.

That's all going to be underwater.

Unless we can persuade them that the dam
is a poor idea.

What do you care about this dam,
Preston?

It'll dry up the river that runs by my
spa.

That's one of our main attractions.
People like to fish, stroll along.

If they build that dam, I won't have a
riverside resort.

I'll have a hotel by a dry riverbed.

I can't let that happen.

Ask Robert E. to look in on Watson while
he's in jail. He's got to make sure

that Matthew knows what he's getting
into.

I can't believe Matthew would
intentionally help someone who's going

the valley.

He's a lawman. It's his job.

Well, he must not be aware of what
Danforth is up to.

Or Creston.

I like the look of his friends.

Be careful.

It should be gone off.

What is it, sweetheart?

Huh? What is it?

Opossum. O -P -O -S -S -U -M. Correct.

Vociferous. V -O -C -I -F

-E -R -O -S.

I am sorry. It is E -R -O -U -S.

But you did very well. That's correct.

Next is Brian Cookman.

Your first word is sheriff.

F -H -E -R -I -F -F.

Correct.

Forfeit.

F -O -R -F -E -I -T.

Correct.

Opportunity.

O -P -O -R -T -U -N -I -T -Y.

That is incorrect.

There are two Ps in opportunity.

Thank you, Brian.

Next is Tess Randall.

Your first word is beautiful.

Right up there is where they stopped us
before.

Came right out of nowhere.

Well, it looks all right now.

Let's just ease on ahead.

Nice and slow.

We're going to put the mill here.

This way we can cut the trees right
here, mill them, ship them out on

cars straight to Denver.

Do you have any idea how much time and
money that's going to save us? I can

appreciate that. There's a boom going on
in Denver. They need lumber, and they

need it fast.

All I'm suggesting is to build the dam
at a different site, say, Mountain

And why would I do that?

Because if you build it here, it'll ruin
this whole valley.

And it'll dry up the river that runs
right past Colorado Springs.

You've got other sources of water.

If you build in Fountain Creek, Mr.
Danforth, I am prepared to arrange

financing for all your loans.

Not interested.

Two points less than what you're paying
now. Don't you understand?

I own this land.

I'm here.

In two more days, the dynamite arrives
and we start blasting. I'm urging you to

reconsider in the strongest terms.

The answer is no.

We'll see about that.

Brian, I'm so sorry.

Where were you, Ma?

Katie was sick.

She was running a fever.

What's wrong with her?

It's just a mild catarrh, but I couldn't
bring her with me, and I didn't want to

leave her here with anyone else.

I'm so disappointed I wasn't able to
come.

It's all right.

I've got to do some chores.

Wait, wait.

Sit down.

Tell me about the spelling bee.

Tess Warner.

Oh?

Well, how did you do?

Not very good.

Well, you were so well prepared.

I missed the word opportunity.

Well, you know how to spell that.

I got mixed up.

Well, that happens to everyone.

I'm sure you'll do better next time.

I've got to do some chores.

Make trouble?

No, no, no.

Came up the same route, didn't he,
Stoltz?

Good. Let's figure I'll make one more
pass with him. Whoever's out there will

get the message.

Afraid I'm going to need you here.

There's some strangers coming around
here. I don't like the looks of them.

One of them's looking for you.

Tully!

What are you doing here?

Preston's here.

I saw him leaving town with some hired
men.

Hired? What for?

He doesn't want the dam here.

Looks like they're setting cars in
trouble.

Well, that's why I'm here.

Stand forth.

You know what he's planning on doing?

Building a dam.

He's gonna blast out the side of the
mountain and destroy all that land.

He owns the land. He can build whatever
he wants on it.

What about the people who live below the
dam who won't be able to get water from

the river? Don't they have rights?
Sully, I know you feel strongly about

Don't you? Yes.

Sure.

But I also feel strongly about doing my
job.

I'm just here to help you. I don't need
your help.

Matthew. Fact is, I don't need you here.

So why don't you go home?

point is irrelevant.

What's crucial is to stop Danforth by
blocking the dynamite delivery.

And what we need to do is to strike
quickly and show a clear demonstration

force. A wagon with a dynamite. We fix
it so it never arrives.

When it reaches the pass, we ride out
just like before.

I tell him to halt, get off the wagon,
and you get on and drive away, and I

finish them both off. You're not
suggesting we kill someone.

It's cleaner.

No witnesses.

Now, all we need to do is stop the
dynamite to keep Danforth from blasting.

We'll just order another shipment from
Denver. But if we kill the drivers, no

one will want to bring a wagon in here.
No, you're just being paid to stop the

dam from being built. Nothing else.

What's going on here?

What do you want? Don't worry,
gentlemen.

Sully is just as much against building
this dam as we are. Isn't that right,

Sully?

This is wrong. You shouldn't be doing
this.

Awkward as it may be, we're both on the
same side here.

I need your help.

Ride along with us.

You can help me keep these two in line.

Forget about it.

It's only a temporary measure.

I'm going to petition the circuit court
for a restraining order, and I've wired

people in Washington, but that takes
time.

If we can remove the dynamite, we'll
gain that time.

And if you come along, we'll make sure
no one gets hurt.

Somebody listen to me. Do you want this
damn built?

Then this is the only way.

No, it ain't.

Get all your bulwark done?

Quiet?

Something wrong?

I'm just not hungry.

You're not your usual self.

You're a little bit warm.

Perhaps you're catching what Katie had.

Do you feel achy all over?

I don't know.

Perhaps you shouldn't go to school
today.

I'll take you with me to the clinic.

The wild orchid that grows in this
valley doesn't grow anywhere else.

There's eagles in these trees and
there's trout in that stream over there.

They're all going to be gone if you do
this.

They'll find another home.

I know this don't mean much to you, but
it might mean something to your children

and to their children.

They might want to come here and hunt
and fish and enjoy all this beauty God

created. What about the beauty that man
creates?

Have you ever seen a dam in operation?

It's a marvel of engineering.

Once you destroy this valley, it's gone
forever.

It's obvious we're in complete
disagreement here.

These people want to stop you.

I don't care what it takes. Somebody
might get hurt.

Sheriff!

I believe this man is attempting to
threaten me.

I'll talk to him.

I asked you to leave.

There's something we gotta talk about.

You gotta stop checking up on me. This
ain't about checking up on you.

We got other problems. Like what?

Why don't you come with me and I'll show
you.

Sully, just... Just come with me.

Here's some willow bark tea.

It should help bring the fever down.

Thanks, Mom.

Be careful, it's hot.

You hungry?

Would you like some soup?

No, I'm tired.

Well, perhaps it would be good if you
took a nap.

I don't feel sleepy.

Would you like me to read to you?

You don't have to.

about Robinson Crusoe?

My father used to read this to me when I
was home and sick in bed.

I can read it myself.

No, I want you to rest your eyes.

I was born in the year 1632 in the city
of York of a good family, though not of

that country.

There, my father married my mother,
whose relations were named Robinson, a

good family in that country.

For them, I was called Robin.

Our English neighbors corrupted my
father's name into Crusoe, and therefore

claimants called me Robinson Crusoe.

My father, who was very ancient, had
given me a competent share of learning.

Remember this place?

Of course I remember.

That's where we built the sweat lodge.

I had to climb this tree to get the egg
of a red -tailed hawk.

I got scratched real bad.

Cloud Dancing made me do it again. See,
I got a crack in it.

I don't think I slept the whole three
days you were on a vision quest.

You have miles to reach, Kim, riding out
here.

On the last day, I was sitting in the
sun thinking about all the folks I love.

And this hawk came, landed right beside
me.

It was amazing.

All this will be gone.

No tree.

No meadow.

No hawks.

Matthew, listen to me.

Preston and his men are gonna make sure
that that shipment of dynamite don't get

through.

Sheriff?

Sheriff?

I feel bad.

But I gotta do my job.

I've just finished feeding Katie. If
you're ready, we'll ride into town

together. But don't forget your school
books.

I'm still feeling kind of warm.

Your fever's gone.

Are you sure?

I'm kind of achy.

Maybe I should stay home for one more
day.

I definitely think you're on the mend.

Why don't we give it a try?

I'll be at the clinic if you need me.

All right.

I'll help you get that dynamite to buy
you some time, like you said.

But no shooting.

Either one of you fires a shot, I'll be
right on your back and I'll haul you to

jail. Understand?

Let's go.

Alright, here they come.

Remember, don't shoot.

Put your hands up, now! Get them up!

Wait a minute, what is this?

These boxes are empty!

Where's the dynamite?

I don't know.

You're lying!

They sent in another wagon. On the
Jamestown Road.

True.

I swear.

Please.

Ray!

I didn't see anything. By the time I
arrived, the bandits were gone.

We got the bullet out, but they're still
both unconscious.

We'll know more when they come to.

The plan worked, Sheriff.

How'd you happen to be there?

I was returning back to town. With your
friends?

Friends. The two men you were with?

No, they left earlier. In fact, they
were in the opposite direction, towards

Denver. Why'd they leave?

Our business was concluded.

So you were alone?

Yes. I heard a commotion somewhere on
the road behind me. I heard gunshots. I

turned and rode back.

Let me get this straight. You turned
around and rode back towards the shop?

I was cautious.

I kept out of sight until I was sure
there was no one around but the drivers.

Were they unconscious?

Yes.

Preston, if you have information that
you're keeping from the law, then you're

an accessory.

I've told you all I know.

Time is up.

Hand in your test, please.

Thank you.

Brian, you have not finished.

Sorry.

I must take it now.

Hello, Brian.

Hey, Mom.

How was school?

All right. Well, how did you do on your
arithmetic test?

I failed.

You failed the test?

Well, perhaps it's because you missed
school.

I don't want to talk about it.

Well, you never failed a test before.

Well, I have now.

Brian, I think we should talk about it.

It's just one test.

I've got to get home.

Did some chores.

Sheriff, the driver's just come through.

How

many

men were there?

Three. Can you describe them?

Well, two of them were... I don't know.

They had hats and guns, nothing special.

But the third one was different.

How's that?

Was the giraffe different?

More fancy?

I don't know.

Kind of like an Injun.

An Injun?

Well, he wasn't an Injun, but he had
long hair.

Brown hair.

And a coat made out of that buckskin the
Injuns use.

Sounds like that man was looking for
you.

I thought you took care of him.

Don't worry.

I will.

Come in.

Dr. Quinn, good afternoon.

May I?

Certainly.

How are your classes going?

Very well, thank you.

I'm getting to know my students better.

It takes time. I'm sure.

I wanted to talk to you about Brian.

And he's always done well at school.

Extremely well.

Yes.

I understand he failed his arithmetic
test.

He only completed half the test.

Well, what happened?

I'm not sure.

I'm glad you came to see me because I
wanted to ask, is there something at

that could be troubling him?

No. Sometimes if there is a problem in
the home, there will be a problem in the

school. I can assure you there's no
problem at home.

Perhaps there's a problem here.

With another student or... With the
teacher.

He's never failed a test before.

Brian and I have no problem.

Well, then what do you suppose it is?

Haven't you noticed a change in him the
past few weeks?

He's not paying attention. His mind
wanders.

No, it's not like Brian.

Something is disturbing him.

If you wish, I can talk to him and try
and find out what is troubling him.

No, that won't be necessary. I'll talk
to him.

Thank you.

Come down here.

The man who shot the driver, he's up
here. I want to talk to you.

Come on, he tried to kill them both.
Hurry up, we gotta move fast. So you

there.

Look, Matthew, I will explain to you
later. No.

You'll explain it to me now.

It's not what you think.

You ambushed that wagon.

You don't know the whole story. I know
all I need to know.

You are letting him get away. Forget
about him, I'm talking to you.

You tried to steal that dynamite.

It was to stop the dam.

Two men are lying in camp in serious
condition.

I didn't shoot them. You haven't been
honest with me since this thing started.

You've been telling me one thing and
doing something else.

I was trying to make sure that no one
got hurt. That's my job.

You should have let me handle this
instead of trying to take this on

You're not the law.

I'm the law.

And I'm arresting you.

Put those away.

Let's go.

Brian?

I went to see Mrs. Morales today.

Why'd you do that?

Well, we've both been very concerned
about you.

And I've been thinking, now that
Colleen's off at school and Matthew's on

own, I've had to rely on you more for
help.

Well, there have been extra chores.

I don't mind.

You sure?

Yeah.

I want you to know that thanks to all
your help, you've made it possible for

to spend extra time with Katie.

For that, I'm really grateful to you.

But now I realize that your chores might
be taking time away from your

schoolwork, and that's not it.

And what is it, Brian? What's troubling
you?

I'm sorry, I missed your spelling bee.

That's not it either.

Then what is it?

Please, tell me.

It's nothing.

I love you, Mom.

Is everything all right up... What is
it? What's wrong?

I had to arrest Sully.

What for?

Attempted robbery.

Robbery?

I was trying to stop the dam, and things
got out of hand.

Well, surely there are some other means.

There are legal ways.

There wasn't enough time.

What if they blast out the side of that
mountain?

gone forever. I couldn't just stand
there and watch him do that. So you took

with those gunmen? They were planning an
ambush. That's why I went. Taking care

of that is what I was hired to do.

I didn't want you getting hurt. That's
my job.

That's my decision.

Wait. Wait just a minute.

Sully, who are these other men?

The ones Preston hired.

Preston says he didn't have anything to
do with it. He was there.

Nobody saw him. Well, he made sure of
that.

Trouble was.

You couldn't control those two men.
That's why I went with to make sure

got hurt. The plan was just to take the
dynamite, and I told him over and over

again, no shooting. Come on.

You go riding up with guns, there's
always a chance that somebody's going to

shot. Well, what happened then?

Well, when Ray thought we got tricked,
he shot the driver cold and was going to

shoot the other one, but it pushed him
out of the way.

It went off, but nobody got hit.

So he could have been killed.

What do you propose to do now?

I got no choice.

I'm gonna have to wire for the circuit
court, Judge.

Be all right.

Dr. Mike?

Did you wire the judge yet?

I did.

He'll be here tomorrow. The hearing
should be in the afternoon.

Dr. Mike, I didn't want to do this.

You gotta know that.

I know.

I told him to stay out of it.

He wouldn't listen to me.

Gave me no choice.

I know that you're angry with me, and I
understand that you're just doing your

job.

But I'm hoping that in doing so, that
you'll listen to all the sides of the

story and investigate them fully.

I think you better tell me what happened
out there. I've already told you. So

did Philly. I'm standing by my account.
Now, if you'll excuse me.

I know you planned that ambush.

I put a warrant out for Billy and Ray.

Ray and Billy?

You were seen with them at the camp.
They matched the description given by

driver. So?

So folks saw you give them money. For
legitimate work they did at the hotel.

I've got the receipts to document it.

You hired them to ambush that shipment.

Sully will testify against you. It'll be
his word against mine.

Exactly.

I'm a banker, a respected member of this
community.

He'll be a convicted felon by then. No
one will believe him.

I wouldn't bet on that.

I got enough ground to hold you right
now in jail and let the judge decide

one of you he believes.

You want to take that chance?

Or?

Or you could testify at Sully's trial.

As to what? What you saw.

But Sully tried to stop that shooting
and save the driver.

And you would drop the matter at that?

Like you said, got no hard proof.

Yet.

I'd be happy to testify on Sully's
behalf, Sheriff.

I find the defendant, Byron Sully,
guilty as charged.

I sentence you, Mr. Sully, to six months
in jail.

However, because of the extenuating
circumstances, five months suspended,

one week off for time served.

Three weeks in jail, starting today.

I know you did what you had to do.
