Thus, let us give thanks for the bountiful gifts which he has bestowed

in this, our season of harvest, and for his bountiful love in all

seasons.

We also give thanks for his boundless wisdom and guidance, and

for his everlasting love and patience.

May we all say, Amen.

Yes? I'd sure like to sing a hymn if you folks didn't mind.

Well, no, I'm not sure. How about the old -time religion?

Who is she, Ma?

I don't know.

Yeah, give me that old -time religion.

Give me that old -time religion.

Give me that old -time religion.

It's good enough for me.

with Sister Ruth.

I heard her.

She's got a revival beating goes around.

Yes, her I do.

I preach the gospel just like our good brother here in his sermon.

How many of you folks out here believe in the power of the Lord?

Come on, don't be shy.

I do.

I do, Sister.

Well, how many of you believe in the healing power of the Lord? I do.

Amen. Bless yourselves.

Be healed. Now, who's going to be first to be healed today?

Horse's gout acting up again?

I gave him something for the swelling yesterday.

Come on up here, brother.

Now, you wait just a minute here.

Do you believe he can heal you?

Yes, sister.

Do you accept him as your only Lord and Savior?

Yes, ma 'am. All right, then.

Do you feel his power in you?

Yes, Sister Ruth. I feel it.

Well, then, throw away that canker and put yourself in the arms of the Lord

and...

She didn't do anything.

It really was a lovely service, Reverend.

Yeah, she was real good.

I meant the Reverend Johnson sermon, Brian.

Yeah, that was good, too.

Thank you.

We'll see you all next Sunday.

Of course.

Dr. Mike.

Dr. Mike.

The swelling just disappeared. Can you believe it? No, actually, I can't.

Why don't you come by the clinic, and I'll examine you again.

What for?

Well, Hornets, sometimes when people get carried away, they forget that they're

sick.

But later they'll remember.

You don't look too carried away to me.

Just healthy and happy.

Wouldn't you say so, sister?

Doctor. Dr. Quinn.

You a doctor?

Yes, yes, I am.

I'm always pleased to meet a fellow healer.

You ought to come see. Kid Cole is back and looks like he shot somebody.

They're all by the jail.

Rubbery? I thought our old sheriff would make it back this way again. Kind of

surprised some young gun hasn't built Kid Cole full of holes by now. The one

there that tried.

Where'd you get all those horses?

The man locked in the jail stole them. Sully helped me get them back. Sully?

I found them camped out by these four steeds near the reservation.

There were four brothers. Kid shot one of them, killed another.

Got away.

Probably come looking for him. Looks like we're finally going to have us a

hanging. Uh -uh. That boy ain't leaving this jail.

We're going in for bounty.

Mr. Cole?

Hello, Doc.

You don't look well.

That's what I've been telling him.

Never felt better.

I hear you're still keeping me in business.

Well, it went clean through. He's fine. I'd like to make sure.

You mind untying him? Yeah, I would.

Don't suppose your Lord's your race in it, is he, Doc?

Sully, help me take him over to the clinic.

He ain't going nowhere.

He's worth quite a bit of gold to me. Of course, I'm going to split it with Mr.

Sully. Now, my money's yours.

If I don't treat you to this wound, you're going to bleed to death.

You want to fix him?

Fix him here.

I'll get my bag.

Your bag.

Not much buying in my basket today. Has everybody gone over to see that kid,

Cole?

What's all this?

You've been working hard and making supper for everybody else.

Thought it was about time somebody made supper for you.

Nobody's ever done anything like this for me before.

I mean, I've certainly never been waited on in my whole life.

It's about time.

Hope you like it.

Sweet.

Robert E., what on God's green earth?

There it is.

I thought you might have swallowed it.

Grace.

Is that what I think it is?

Grace, will you be my wife?

Uh -huh.

So is it true there was 20 of those horse thieves you scared away?

I heard it was more like 30.

There's going to be two less of you if you don't leave me in peace.

Hey, look.

That evangelist I was telling you about.

What can I do for you?

Well, you can come home to the Lord, brother.

He's missing you.

Sorry, I can't say the same.

Yeah.

We don't serve women here.

That's all right. I ain't drinking.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Listen, you can throw me out of Penn's Palace, but I'm going to tell you one

thing the Lord is here to say.

Amen. Let's go.

Come on.

Leave the lady alone.

For what?

For this.

It's good to see there's at least one gentleman left in this town.

I assure you, ma 'am, I'm no gentleman.

Well, then, what are you?

I'm just your ordinary, everyday sinner.

Well, them's the best kind.

Them being the easiest to save and all.

Nothing easy about me, ma 'am.

Excuse me.

Am I going to see you at the revival?

No, ma 'am.

He was with him before.

I don't understand. She was doing fine with the stramonium for her asthma.

Until... Until when, Matthew?

That Sister Ruth's been over to the immigrant camp.

I healed.

Sister healed me.

Not to need medicine.

She passed around a basket for people to throw their medicine into. I begged

Ingrid not to.

Colleen, put her back on the vapor treatments.

I'll be right back.

But it'll be better.

Good morning, Dr.

Mack. Not for one of my patients.

Ingrid.

Oh, that sweet little gal that used to have asthma. Used to?

She's in my clinic this very minute. She died from an asthma attack.

Asthma I'd successfully controlled through medication.

Well, she must have lost faith.

I beg your pardon.

Well, her faith weren't strong enough.

In order for the Lord to heal and the healing to stick, Your faith in him must

be complete.

What about those who don't share your beliefs?

Those with other gods, like the Cheyenne and their spirits?

Who heals them?

Well, I guess you do.

Because modern medicine gives me that power.

Well, the Lord gave you the skill and the science to heal.

I'm sure he did.

But you have to allow me to do my work.

Surely. Just as long as you'll allow me to do mine, sister.

I'm not your sister.

Hey! My brothers are coming to get me, old man.

When they get me, they're going to be getting you, too.

I'm looking forward to it, son.

You know, I was just a lookout. I didn't steal any dang horses.

You didn't have to shoot my brother, neither. He didn't mean you no harm.

Mr. Paul, come to check on your prisoner.

Well, his mouth is working fine this morning.

You're the one done patched me up.

Yes, I am.

You let a dang woman work on me.

What, are you trying to kill me?

This ain't no woman. She's a doctor.

Ouch.

You're welcome.

For

your

cough.

I told you I'm better.

If anything, you're worse.

You can't go on leading this kind of life. It'll kill you.

What happened to your plans to settle down?

Plant some rose bushes?

Boys like him kept trying to make me push up rose bushes instead of planting

them. You could stay here.

Sheriff's job's still open.

That's a nice thought, Dr. Quinn, but I'm a gunfighter.

And I'll die a gunfighter.

No, you won't.

You'll die coughing to death from consumption.

That's my choice, ma 'am.

My choice.

It's good chicken.

Thank you. Now, you're coming to my revival meeting, ain't you?

Well, I'd like that.

Well, then I'll see you there.

Ma 'am, that horse Steve said you were cooking was worth getting captured for.

Tell him thank you.

I think.

Rather cold, isn't it?

No, ma 'am, I ain't nobody's brother.

You can call me kid.

Well, you ain't nobody's kid, neither.

Sit down.

I ain't gonna bite you.

I don't know. You bit Hank pretty good over at the saloon.

That ain't an answer.

I want to know if I'm gonna see you at the meeting.

No, ma 'am, you ain't.

Well, that's all right.

I can enjoy your company right here.

I'd like that, ma 'am. I truly would, but I got a prisoner to look after.

Can you believe it?

I couldn't be happier, people.

Congratulations, Grace.

Robert E.

Um, I got something I'd like to ask y 'all.

You wouldn't mind being our maid of honor and best man, would you?

Mind? I... We'd.

We'd be truly honored, Grace.

Oh.

Congratulations. Thank you.

Thank you.

Reverend, please sit right over here.

Reverend.

It's good to see you all.

To what do I owe this honor?

We're getting married.

Well, that is wonderful news.

Congratulations. Thank you.

We'd like for you to perform the ceremony.

Of course.

Sit down.

Well, now, where would you like to have the wedding?

How about the meadow?

Well, uh, we got our hearts set on being married in the church.

Well, fine.

I'd be honored to preach at your church.

That shack's a meeting hall, Reverend. It's not a church.

We ain't got a preacher.

I think they mean the town church.

Look, I believe in God, Reverend.

I've got a lot of reasons not to, but I do.

We'd like to get married in his house.

Robert E., a church is anywhere where people gather to worship. The town

is a place where the town worships.

We're part of this town, ain't we? Of course.

But this is a decision that needs to be made by the congregation.

The decision has already been made.

No, Negro.

We need you to decide.

You're a man of the cross.

A holy man.

And we thought you might see things a little differently. I might.

Robert E., that is, I do.

But the congregation doesn't.

And I have to answer to them.

I think we've had this discussion before, Reverend.

Do you... or do you not answer to a higher power?

Maybe you better figure that out, Reverend.

Hey, Mr.

Colt. Hey, partner.

Will you tell me the story of how you caught those horse thieves?

Well, kind of a long story. Maybe later.

Are you sure we're brave going up against them?

Oh, we're so brave.

Can I see the prisoner?

I don't think your ma would like that too much.

Can I see your gun?

I got something better than that, sir.

Well, don't you remember sweet Betsy from back Who crossed the green prairie

with her husband back?

With one yoke of oxen and an old spotted hog.

A tall Shanghai rooster and an old yeller dog.

You all right?

I better get my ma.

Ma! Ma!

What's that you're giving him?

Chloroform.

Relaxes the air passage.

Here,

is that better?

Yes, ma 'am.

Seeing you took my breath away.

Well, now's the time to accept the Lord.

Accept him so he can heal you.

Please. I'm trying to listen.

You have fluid on your lungs.

Fluorosy.

I'll need to remove it. Mm -mm.

You ain't gonna operate on me.

Listen to her, will ya?

Well, it's not an operation, really. I don't care what you call it, you ain't

gonna do it.

Then you'll die.

It's as simple as that.

Everybody's gonna die.

Well, then wouldn't you rather be right with the Lord when you do?

If you two squawking, it's going to drive me into my grave.

How do I know what the best man is supposed to give him? You're the best

You figure it out.

What are you getting him?

I don't know. I thought perhaps a Bible. Oh, yes. Well, now, a Bible. A Bible is

just about the best gift there is.

Well, we could both give it to them together.

All right.

Would you wrap it up, Mr. Brinkner? Cost you a penny extra.

Fine. I'll pay.

Stella. Would you talk to Kid Cole for me, please?

Try to convince him to let me treat him.

No. Why not?

Because it's not up to you.

Just stop trying to save him. He don't want to be saved. He's my patient, and I

want to do everything in my power to help him. Maybe it's not in your power.

Well, I'm not giving up.

I've known you two.

Mr. Cole, I need a word with you.

Just a minute, Doc. Something I need more.

Tobacco, please.

Tobacco?

You know what that'll do for your tuberculosis?

No, ma 'am, but I'm sure you're planning on telling me. Mr. Cole?

Are you looking for something in particular?

My brother.

I paid a couple of armed guards to look after him. Paid?

You must have been thinking you're getting a bounty.

You boys better be careful.

They've been known to hang horse thieves in this town.

Who said we stole any horses?

You ain't got nothing on us.

Ma 'am?

It's just a matter of time before we get you alone.

Oh, Sally.

I guess you'll be paying for this. Where are you going?

Revival.

You won't listen to your own physician, but you'll listen to Sister Ruth.

I'm going to pray for Will all my life.

Me too, Mom.

Me too.

Dr. Mike, I can get a seat for you right down the front. Thank you, Horace, but

I'll be fine right there.

There's a lot of souls here today.

There's two souls.

Souls in love.

Souls in torment.

Because of the closed -mindedness of things that are just not of the Lord.

Thus, I would be proud to perform the ceremony that would unite these

two as one.

Next Sunday, right here.

Before God and all you witnesses.

Now who's going to live the word and be healed?

Who would come and feel the power of the Lord?

Who would be healed today?

Go on.

Oh, you.

Nothing wrong with me.

You're harder hearing than that one ear.

Why?

Oh, no, I ain't. Come on, Mr. Bray.

You saw how she healed me up real good.

Oh, yeah, Mr. Bray.

The fear?

Yeah.

We call on the Lord, the great physician, the doctor of our body,

our soul, and our spirit.

For it is he and he alone who heals.

And I am but the humble instrument of his healing.

Do you believe in the Lord, brother?

I always did. Didn't keep my hearing from going.

Well, you got to believe harder.

Believe harder, brother.

Harder.

No, I still can't hear nothing out of it.

then there is one among us who does not believe in the power of the Lord to

heal.

That's Dr. Mike there.

I would ask that the non -believer leave this meeting in peace so that we

might continue in the prayer of faith.

Amen, sister.

Do you believe in the Lord, brother?

Do you believe in the power of the Lord, brother?

Yes.

I can hear.

I can hear you.

I can hear.

Praise be the name of the Lord.

Hallelujah.

Who else among you would like to come and be here? Reverend, come on now.

I'm surprised to see you here.

You too.

But it was only fair to see what it was I was criticizing.

Well, I'd say we both got an eyeful.

You have the gift of healing, Michaela.

But don't discount the Lord's gifts. They are bountiful.

Yes, they are.

Including the gift of tolerance.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I'll see you tomorrow afternoon at the meeting.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you, ma 'am. Oh, listen.

Hey, boys, we don't want no trouble.

It's not over, old man.

Come on.

What the devil?

He ain't got nothing to do with it.

One good turn deserves another.

And I saw them boys chasing you.

Oh, don't worry about them. I've handled meaner.

I'm sure you have.

Sometimes I wonder why.

You're a good man.

I know it. I can feel it. No, I'm not.

I've been killing all my life.

And you think it's the Lord's way of punishing you to give you consumption?

There's something else.

Well, whatever you've done, no matter what the sinning, the Lord will forgive

you if you'll just forgive yourself.

Enjoyed the show, sister. Wait.

Wait, don't go.

Sit and talk.

You're always running off.

If I stay, I might be tempted to do more than talk.

Hey, Mr. Cole.

Call me Kid, Kid.

Hey, thanks, Kid.

What's wrong?

Nothing. You go on now.

I thought you were going to tell me the story of how you got that horse thing.

I told you, go on.

I'm through following you, old man.

I want my brother.

You ain't getting him.

Let's get out of here.

Matthew, you look after Brian for me, please.

Picture Ma, please.

I'm trying to, Brian.

Colleen, get me the stethoscope.

Poor thieves came looking for their brother. There was a fight and he got

the chest.

I'm going to be all right, Mr. Cole.

My lungs have been weakened by the tuberculosis causing the bleeding. I'm

to have to drain it away.

No.

Help me lie him down.

Let him.

I'm going to need to aspirate his lung.

Colleen, I'll clean out the bandages for you. Go upstairs and get me something.

Leave me alone. Get off of me. Just let me die, will you?

Why don't you just let me die in peace?

Why would you want to die?

He didn't have no gun.

What?

I killed a man who didn't have no gun.

I heard there was a fight.

Oh, my Lord.

Get out of here. I'm staying, sister, whether you like it or not.

I wasn't welcome in your place of healing, and you're not welcome in mine.

This isn't about oaths, sister.

I realize that, but you can't heal someone that doesn't want to be healed.

I can't, but you can.

I need to insert the needle between the third and fourth thread.

There.

Just take it easy, Mr. Cole.

Yes.

We'll both need your prayer.

Please, Lord, guide my sister's healing hands.

Let them be the instrument of your healing.

May I join you?

Oh, please.

I've been doing some soul -searching.

So have I.

Say what you like about Sister Ruth, but she sure makes you think.

Yes, she does.

Have you come to any conclusions?

Yes, I have.

I have concluded that I've behaved like an absolute coward.

I should have stood up to this town long ago.

The Bible says, love thy neighbor.

It makes no reference to race, creed, or color.

See you at the wedding, then.

Did you have a good rest?

I slept like a dead.

Well,

you're alive.

And you're breathing much easier.

I haven't breathed this good in years.

I don't know what you did, Doc, but it's a miracle.

Oh, I wouldn't know about those.

But there's someone waiting to see you that does.

Well, ain't you a sight for sore eyes?

Ain't the only part of me that's sore, I bet.

I just found you. Don't want to lose you. Especially now that I get a chance

save you.

I ain't ready to face the Lord.

Well, then, how about just facing me?

Mind just leaving me alone for now.

I got business to settle on.

Good job, doctor.

He's as ornery as ever.

You're blessed with a healing touch.

Ain't no doubt about it.

So are you, Sister Ruth.

You taught me something about the power of belief.

Faith and medicine go hand in hand.

I won't be so quick to dismiss it next time.

Do you believe in God, Dr. Quinn?

Yes, I do.

I feel him with me every time I... I deliver a baby.

Every time I look in my children's faces.

Every time I lose a patient.

And every time I save one, I feel him with me.

Look who I'm talking to. He's with you all the time. No, not all the time.

That one in there?

I think he's a test.

Attacked on my own face.

I never had such a time leaving one to the Lord.

Can I see him?

Right in.

You are the marshal in Denver?

Yeah. I was expecting both of you.

What do you think you're doing?

This is my fight.

There's two of them out there.

Without help, it's going to be suicide.

Or is that the way you want it?

I reckon I ought to get what's coming to me.

Did you know he didn't have a gun? I knew it wasn't a gunfight.

I had to drop on him.

But did you know he didn't have a gun?

No.

So then you made a mistake.

Everybody does sometimes.

Don't do this.

Let him go.

Let it all be over.

And then maybe you and I could... I just wish you'd go on now before you get

hurt. I'd be hurt if you died.

I love you, you old coot.

You're sure good at shooting a boy without a gun.

How about two grove men with him?

Sorry,

I won't get a chance to show you boys.

Go on, drop them.

Fellas won't mind staying in our fine jail.

Just till we can find a judge.

Now you go on.

That hole in your arm is punishment enough.

Sorry it was by my hand.

Sorry about your brother, too. You turned around real sudden.

You promised me one thing.

That you'll walk the straight pathway.

And don't go back with them brothers of yours.

No, sir, I won't.

You can get a fresh start in then.

I'll wire the mark.

Why'd you say you're sorry, kid?

Cause two wrongs. Don't make a right.

Kid.

I promised you'd take it easy.

I promised I'd try.

Well, thank you, Doc, for saving my life.

You had to want to live.

And there's someone else you should thank for that.

The ring symbolizes your unending love for each other.

But let it also stand as a sign of strength for the hardships that you've

overcome to make it here today.

Brian, the ring?

You know I got it here somewhere.

Ah, found it.

Here you go, Robert E.

Grace your hand.

Robert E., take the ring.

And repeat after me.

With this ring, I thee wed.

With this ring, I thee wed.

I now pronounce you man and wife.

What comes next?

Oh, yes.

You may kiss the bride.

I love you, Grace.

I love you.

Another for your collection.

I think that someone else would like this.
