you

No, you'll be fine.

Now, I want you to get a bunch of rusty
nails. I want you to boil them in water,

add a splash of vinegar, and then when
the water's boiled down a bit, take the

nails out and drink it.

You want me to drink rusty water?

We need to build your blood up with
iron, and rust has iron in it. So I want

to take a tablespoon in the morning and
one before you go to bed.

You're the doctor.

I about gave up on you fellas.

Lauren.

Here, come on. It's over here.

Steven.

You got it?

Is it for me? Yeah.

Hey, Horace. Here's that book you
ordered.

The Mystery of Love.

There must be some mistake. I ordered
Moby Dick.

Here you go, Dr. Mike. Here's one for
you.

Let's see them.

Mr. Paul?

May I help you down?

Thank you.

Mother!

McKenna! What are you doing here?

Well, the telegram said there was an
epidemic and you were lying on your

deathbed. A telegram?

We didn't know whether you were going to
live or die.

Matthew? Colleen?

Here's my mother.

If you're her ma, then you must be my
grandma.

What are we talking about?

You may call her Mrs. Quinn, Brian.

These are my children now.

Well, I had no idea.

I wrote you.

Well, you just asked me for information
about child rearing. And I'm still

waiting for it.

Michaela.

I am very tired, and I need a bath and
some food. Now, would you please tell me

where the hotel is?

There is no hotel.

I beg your pardon?

You can stay with us.

Very well.

My luggage is up there.

Are all those yours?

Correct.

I'll get them.

I still have a patient to see. I hope
you don't mind waiting.

And if I did?

They said a woman doctor could not
survive alone on the new frontier.

But I won't give up.

And I'm not alone anymore.

I've inherited a family.

And that may be the biggest challenge of
all.

I think the rest of fresh air is in
order.

I'll show you Robert E's blind horse.

No, just a stroll will do.

Myra! Myra, I just want... Myra!

All I want to do is talk with her. I
don't care if all you want to do is gawk

her. Either way, Myra costs money. Well,
fine. How much?

I already told you, Horace.

Five bucks.

Could I talk with her on credit?

Don't waste my time.

Did it ever occur to you that you could
sit down and discuss your problems like

two civilized people?

I'm not civilized. Never mind.

How was your trip from Boston, Mother?

Seven days by rail, a six -day wait in
St. Louis.

In five days in a stagecoach, let me
simply say the entire affair was lacking

the amenities.

How are things at home?

Oh, they're fine.

We're putting a fourth story on for the
Ladies' City Club, and we're hoping that

Alexander Parris will be our architect.

Oh, nice.

Hey, can I come and visit you someday?

I've never been to Boston. Brian,
Boston's a long way from here.

You actually live here?

Yes, Mother, I actually do.

We do.

You must be hot and tired, Mother.

Brian and me, we're... Brian and I.

Brian and I are going down to the river
for a swim.

You can come along.

Give us a bath.

We'll watch out for snakes for you.

Perhaps some other time.

Hey, you don't know what you're missing.

Come on, we're going swimming.

No.

Why not?

Who loves women?

Will you just get out of here and leave
me alone?

You really intend to keep these
children?

Yeah.

Yes, I do.

When their mother died, she asked me to
take care of them.

I promised I would.

You made a promise like that to a woman
you hardly knew?

There are some women you meet, and it's
as though you've known them forever.

There are other women you can know for a
lifetime, and it's as though you're

complete strangers.

We caught them just for you, Mr. Quinn.
Yep, as soon as I got them, we'll fry

them up for dinner.

fish are real tasty.

I thought I might need this.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, be very careful of those.

Those are a gift from my grandmother a
long time ago.

They sure are pretty.

Thank you.

You're welcome to come inside while I
tend to a few things.

Oh, no, thank you. I think I'd rather
see the sights.

Remember me?

I'm the one that helped you down out of
the stage yesterday.

Who is?

Lauren Bragg.

Who's the twin?

I guess you're here to take that
headstrong daughter of yours back to

she can find a husband and do what a
woman should.

But I really don't feel that that's any
of your business, Mr. Bray. Well, call

me Lauren.

And what do your friends call you?

Betty? Betsy?

Lizzie?

My friends call me Elizabeth.

Well, now, if you should find need of
any of life's little necessities, you

don't hesitate. Come over and see me at
the general store.

Well,

it was nice talking with you.

Miss Quinn?

Dr. Quinn.

I'm Jedediah Bancroft, First National
Bank of Denver.

What can I do for you?

Well, as you're well aware, you're
illegally occupying these premises.

have to vacate immediately.

Failure to do so will result in forcible
removal.

Do you realize what you're doing?

My job?

Maybe so, but you're also closing down
the only medical facility in this town.

Well, with all due respect, that wasn't
much of a facility.

Wait. Perhaps I could rent it from you.

You can't rent a foreclosed building.
It's already set for auction.

Then I'll buy it.

Fine. Then I'll see you in Denver.
Denver?

Well, that's where the auction is.

How much is it?

Well, bidding starts at $1 ,500.

I'll need a mortgage.

What's your collateral?

My medical degree.

Well, if you were a man, yes, but most
people have no confidence in lady

doctors. Now, if you were married, maybe
I could work out something with your

husband.

Any plans to get married?

I really don't think that any of you bet
that.

No plans, huh?

How much I owe you, Robert E.? Next time
you go hunting for elk, bring me back

the hide and we'll call it even.

You got yourself a deal.

Thank you.

Well, aren't you going to try it out?

I know your work, Robert E. Go on.

It's a cornbread. I hope you like it.

Love cornbread.

Well.

Well.

Well.

Well, um.

Well, good day, Robert E.

Sally. Ma 'am.

Looks like you got a bad, Robert E.

Yeah, that's the kind of woman a man
could dream about his whole life.

Better live your dreams, Robert E.

Take him over to your place.

Maybe that's not such a good idea.

What are you saying?

Are you saying that Robert E. is good
enough to shoe your horse and not good

enough to be in your shop?

It's not me, you understand. It's my
customers.

Am I dying?

No. Am I dying? Get the rabbit.

Rabbit!

I'm right here, Robert E. Am I going to
heaven?

Tell me, am I going to heaven?

You're not going to heaven. Not yet,
anyway.

Matthew, get the wagon.

Get him over here.

Whipping scars.

Let me go.

Let me go.

You've been hurt, Robert E. No, nothing
wrong with me. Let me out of here.

You've been burned.

The forge exploded.

Get me some water. Lots of it.

I have to clean the wounds, Robert E.

I'm afraid I can't anesthetize you in
your condition.

I'm afraid this is going to hurt.

I'll sprain you to pain.

Does that man live here?

What man?

That savage.

Oh, that man. You mean Sully. I mean
Sully.

No, he doesn't live here.

He's a friend of mine and of Robert E.,
and like a good friend, he's concerned.

Savages don't knock, Mother.

Morning. Come on in.

Sorry if I startled you, ma 'am.

How's he doing?

So far, no fever, no sign of infection.

Good.

You need anything, you just ask.

Grace, you're not feeling poorly, I
hope. No, no.

I'm feeling fine.

I came to see Robert E.

Oh.

Oh, well, let me tell him you're here.

Are they bad? His burns?

Yeah.

Why is it so funny?

Tell her to go away.

Robert E., I rode all the way out here
to see you. I don't care. Go away.

What kind of nonsense is this? Are you
deaf, woman? I said go away. I don't

to see you.

It may be better if you came back later.

Great.

He's not himself right now.

Please don't take it personally.

He's a stubborn man.

Yes, he is.

But it's just that stubbornness that
might pull him through.

You know, in Boston, they deliver the
milk in glass bottles right at the front

door.

What's the matter, dear?

I'm going to die.

What makes you think you're going to
die?

I'm bleeding.

I've been bleeding for two whole days.

Oh, Charlie, you're not going to die.

You're just growing up.

You've become a woman.

Now, we'll have a little chat.

Have you noticed Colleen acting oddly
lately?

A little. Why?

Well, two days ago, she became a woman.

She thought she was going to die.

She's too young.

But she's 13.

How old you were.

I shouldn't realize.

Like father, like daughter.

He never noticed anything that went on
in his home. He was so preoccupied with

his profession.

Is there anything you want to ask me?

No. You sure?

I'm fine.

Good.

I'm glad.

What happened to you?

Some guy cut me.

How much to sew me up?

I thought you preferred the expertise of
Mr. Slicker in these matters.

Jake's drunk. Can you talk later when
I'm not bleeding to death?

A dollar a stitch.

Well, that's robbery.

Then I invite you to take your business
elsewhere.

Did you do it already?

Go on in. I've got to get some water.

Who was that?

A patient.

But at least your father didn't bring
his patients into the parlor.

You think I enjoy working under these
conditions?

I tried buying a boarding house for a
clinic, but they wouldn't give me a

mortgage. I could have told you it was a
waste of time to even discuss the

matter. Just like you told me that
they'd never accept me in medical

Well, they didn't, did they?

You went to a ladies' medical college.

They taught me medicine.

But they didn't teach the people how to
accept a woman doctor.

The people of Colorado Springs accept
me? A few desperate souls.

What you should be doing is dancing in
Boston and meeting young, eligible men.

I had a young man.

Oh, David would never permit you to come
to a place like this. David is dead,

Mother. Well, why don't you stop
mourning him?

You brought his name up, not I.

I made a new life for myself out here.
And what a life.

Why can't you accept me for what I am?
And what are you?

You're an unmarried woman trying to
raise three children in a shack in the

middle of nowhere.

And offering your medical services to a
bunch of backwoodsmen who pay you in

potatoes and in chickens.

That's right, Mother.

And one of them is in need of my medical
services.

Excuse me.

Can I help you?

would like to send a telegram. Oh,
that's what I'm here for. We send them

anywhere in the world, just so long as
there's a telegraph office.

The wire should read, building set for
auction, and that goes to the First

National Bank of Denver.

Would that be in Denver?

Yes, it's in Denver.

Oh, I get it.

You're the banker.

What do you do all day?

Count money?

Dr. Mike.

It just came for me.

Thank you, Horace.

Would you get that telegram off right
away?

Telegram? What telegram?

The telegram announcing the auction of
the boarding house. I told you all about

that in real, plain English. Or do you
just understand Latin?

Good day, Miss Quinn.

Hey, that's Dr.

Quinn.

He's developed a fever.

There's no place to treat a patient.

He should be in a hospital.

I have no place to isolate him, no place
to bathe him properly.

Colleen, you'll have to stay here and
take care of Robert E. But I need to go

town, too. I'm sorry.

Well, can't the boys look after him?

They promised Olive to help out at the
ranch.

They get to do everything.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's all I'll
ever hear. Well, perhaps I could look

after him.

Thank you.

Morning, Mrs. Quinn.

How's Robert E.? He's sleeping.

My wife had a garden.

Exact spot.

You lived here?

This is my homestead. I built it.

Well, why did you move?

My wife died giving birth.

Oh.

And the child?

She went with her.

Oh, I can't imagine the pain of losing a
child.

I don't know how one would ever recover.

You don't.

Oh, I want to thank you for letting my
daughter live here.

You know, maybe if we would have had a
doctor like your daughter before, my

and baby would still be alive.

Come on, boy.

Is Jedediah Bancroft staying here?

Maybe.

Maybe not.

Hank, I suggest you tell me where he is,
or I might not be so accommodating next

time you need to be stitched up.

I

have

to buy that clinic.

It seems to me that there is a big
difference between the desire to buy and

ability to buy. Now, you've got plenty
of one, but none of the other.

Don't you understand? People's lives
are... You're breaking my heart.

You don't have a heart, Mr. Bancroft.

Maybe not, but I've got a brain, and
it's telling me that you don't have

money to buy that property.

$1 ,000 down payment.

The price is still $1 ,500.

But this is two -thirds of the cost, and
you could give me a loan to cover the

balance. I can't give a loan to a single
woman.

Can't or won't?

Both.

I'm good for the money.

Not according to the First National Bank
of Denver.

To us, you're just another bad risk best
shied away from.

I'm not through with you, Mr. Banfield.

I didn't think you were, Miss Quinn.

Quinn.

That's a $5 gold, Pete.

Go ahead.

Count it if you want.

Horse.

Hello, Myra.

Don't worry. I paid Hank so I could come
up.

What kind of man do you think I am?

Well, you paid Hank for me, didn't you?

I paid so I could talk to you.

You want to talk to me?

I want to thank you for taking such good
care of me when I was sick.

Oh. Maybe it didn't mean much. Maybe you
was just pitching in.

I wouldn't say that.

I think I took especially good care of
you.

Why would you do that, Myra?

Maybe I was hoping one day you'd come
talk to me just like you're doing right

now.

We could get to know each other.

A proper lot.

Did I ever tell you about the time I
sent a telegram to the wrong person?

No, but I'd sure like to hear about it.

I wish I was a boy.

You wish you were a boy?

Yes, yes, I did.

Especially when I was your age.

I was expected to learn needlepoint and
look pretty.

All I ever wanted to do was see the
world. The only ones that ever got to do

that were the boys.

Boys get to do everything.

No? No, not everything.

I was a little older than you when I
first assisted my father during a birth.

There's a little girl.

Her mother named her Julia.

There's nothing short of a miracle.

To create a life.

I want to do more than get married and
have babies.

There are no rules, Helene.

Look at me.

Never hide behind the fact that you're a
girl.

A woman.

And don't give up on your dreams just
because you're afraid you won't achieve

them in a man's world.

You just have to fight even harder to
make them come true.

You really think so?

If your mother were sitting here right
now, she'd say exactly the same thing.

You're lucky you still have your mother.

There's something I have to ask you.

I'm listening.

I need that boarding house to use as a
clinic if I'm to take proper care of the

people here.

Since the bank won't give me a mortgage,
I need to pay cash.

How much is it?

Fifteen hundred.

I still have a thousand left from my
request.

Michaela, a mother always wants to give
her child everything she can.

But I would be failing you if I
encouraged you in this ridiculous

I've never asked you for anything,
Mother.

Perhaps you should have. You always went
to your father and he gave you

everything you wanted.

What he gave me was the courage to
follow my dreams.

I never wanted a life of convention.

You mean a life like mine.

That's right. I never did and I never
will.

It isn't any wonder.

I was always a wife without a husband
and a mother without a daughter.

I'm begging you, Mother. Please help me.

I'll pay you back.

That's not the point. I just don't want
to help you ruin your life.

Sometimes I think you must really hate
me, Mother.

I'm afraid he's taking a turn for the
worse, Grace.

Good afternoon, Mr. Bray. Good
afternoon, Mrs. Glenn. This came for Dr.

Mike. Oh, thank you very much.

Would you mind if I rode back into town
with you? Huh?

Well, all right, but hurry it up. I'm
leaving.

Robert E., it's Grace.

We've got to hide the children. They'll
be coming for us next.

Robert E., you listen to me.

You are not a slave anymore.

Those days are gone forever.

Dear God, please don't take my children.

Robert E., my children.

I want to thank you for bringing me all
the way back from town.

Oh, no problem.

It's just that old homestead brings back
a lot of memories.

None of them good.

My daughter died up there, giving birth
to my first grandchild.

Your daughter was Sully's wife.

First my daughter, then my wife.

Well, they say time heals.

Ever since Michaela's father passed
away, the days seem to get longer and

longer. And the nights.

Sometimes I wake up, you know, and just
for a second I think things are back the

way they used to be.

And I remember my Abigail's head shot,
just like your girl.

It was very much like her father in that
respect.

Maybe so, but if I could just have my
daughter back, I'd rejoice in her being

just as stubborn as she was.

You've got to save him.

I'm trying, Grace. I'm trying.

I'm sorry.

I know you are.

I lost my mother before I ever had a
chance to tell her how much she meant to

me.

Sometimes people disappoint you and you
just have to let it go.

Michaela, you should get some sleep.

Wait me if there's any change.

Tell me a story.

I don't remember any stories.

Can't you make one up from inside your
head?

You mean like Once Upon a Time?

Yeah.

Well, Once Upon a Time, there was a
woman who had five daughters.

And they all married very nice
gentlemen.

And they made their homes close to their
mother.

All but one.

And she was the youngest.

And she left home and went to a very,
very dangerous place.

And her name was Dr. Mike.

I thought she was going to be a boy when
she was born.

I mean, she wasn't.

She was a girl.

She was real pretty and real nice.

After she grew up real good, she came to
Colorado.

That's where she saved my life.

After my real mom went to heaven, Dr.
Mike got to be my mom down here on

And she loved me just the same.

She told me so.

Do you know who I am?

I haven't lost my mind, woman.

Robert E., I didn't know you had any
children.

I don't want you to ever speak of them
again.

I won't.

If you promise never to send me away
again.

I didn't want you to see me like this.
No reason for that.

Only one I can think of.

Welcome back, Robert E.

Matthew, hurry up.

What's the big surprise?

She still has to pack.

Are you ready?

It's for you.

I borrowed it from Jake's Barbershop.

Take it back.

Well, that would be lovely.

You forgot these.

No, I didn't.

I want you to have these.

Me?

You

sure

you have everything, Mother? Yes, I have
everything.

Good.

I came to say goodbye, ma 'am.

Goodbye, Sally.

I think I will pick up a tin of travel
treats, if you don't mind. Excuse me.

How's Robert E.? A private expression of
concern is appreciated, Mrs. Slicker.

But a public stand would have done him
more good.

But, um... How is he?

He was broken.

I'm glad to hear it.

You'll be taking that daughter of yours
back to Boston, huh?

No. She's too independent and stubborn.

She takes after me in that respect.

So you'll be going home alone?

Yes.

I'll miss her.

Ah, well.

Seems like parents and children spend
half their lives not seeing eye to eye.

By the time they do find some common
ground, there's barely any time left to

enjoy it.

That's my greatest fear.

Tell you what.

Next time you come out for a visit, I'll
show you around a little bit. Let you

see some more of the countryside.

I'd enjoy spending some time with a gal
like you.

Thank you.

Lauren.

Your father would be very proud of you.

What about you, Mother?

What's this?

Open it.

Doctor needs a clinic.
