Did my telescope
come, Mr. Bray?

Did it?

Read it again, Dorothy.

"The world-famous
cometographer,

Dr. Jack Lancaster,

states with certainty
that on the night of the 12th

at exactly midnight,

Stowe's comet will careen
out of its orbit

and collide
with the planet Earth,

extinguishing all life
in a fiery cataclysm."

That's -- that's three days
from now.

Stop it.

Dorothy, you're scaring
all the knotheads.

I bet I can find that comet
with my new telescope lens.

- Did it come, Mr. Bray?
- Oh, it's here,

but that comet ain't gonna
come crashing into us.

- How do you know that?
- 'Cause them cometographers,

they don't know anything,

any more then all the rest
of the scientists do.

That's not true.
Is it, Ma?

Scientists know things.

Well, of course they do,
but, in this case,

I must agree with Loren.

But it's in the paper,
Dr. Mike.

Well, that doesn't mean
it's true, Myra.

If there really were a comet
set to collide with Earth,

the astronomers would have
known about it before today.

But -- but it --
it says here

that this Dr. Lancaster
is sure it's coming.

Well, I've never heard
of Stowe's comet.

Does the famous Dr. Lancaster

have any scientific evidence
to support his theory?

It -- it says right here,
"There will be freak storms

and a hail of meteorites

will fill the night sky
with fireballs from the heavens.

And these fireballs will bring
with them strange gases

that cause changes
in the natural order of things,

making water run red,

forcing animals
to alter shape and color,

causing the Earth to crack open
with volcanic-like eruptions

where there are no volcanoes."

Sounds like a good time to me.

- Not to me.
- That's not evidence.

That's simple doomsaying.

You sure that story don't say
something else, Dorothy?

Sounds made up, if you ask me.

I already told ya,
it is made up.

But this is a respectable
newspaper from back East,

the New York Post.

They usually know things
in New York.

Oh, they know a great deal
in New York, Horace,

including how to have a little
fun with gullible readers.

May I have a look
at that article?

If you'd like.

What is it, Horace?

It's the comet.

Ma! Sully!
Come quick!

It's a comet!
Come on!

Hurry!

It's still smoking.

What is it?

I don't know.

You think
that's the comet, Ma?

Well, it can't be a comet,
Brian.

I believe it's a meteorite.

Didn't the paper say that
there are lots of meteorites

before the comet crashes?

This here's the only one,
Colleen.

Maybe there are more of 'em
in places that we can't see.

Does this mean the world's
coming to an end, Ma?

No, Brian.

The world is most
certainly not coming to an end.

Colleen, you say
you found this in the woods?

It made a big hole,
and it was so hot,

it had smoke coming out of it.

We all saw it.

- Just like in the paper.
- I'll bet it's a sign.

- It's not a sign.
- Then what is it?

It's a stone that was fed
through the atmosphere

fast enough to heat up
into a small fireball.

It's what we commonly refer to
as a -- a falling star.

What if bigger ones
are on the way?

Reverend, are you worried
about larger meteorites?

Me?

Well, no.

This is just one meteorite.

It's a simple, lone meteorite,

probably the only meteorite
that we'll ever see.

So I suggest that we just go
on about our business.

- Right, Dr. Mike?
- Right.

So, now what do we do?

Well, you heard the reverend.

Today's just like any other day.

You need to go to school.

Aw, Ma.

I got me an idea about what
to do before that comet hits.

Aw, it's all a bunch
of malarkey.

Well, a little malarkey
never hurt business none.

What are you talking about?

Folks get riled up
'cause the world's ending,

they're gonna
spend all that money

they've been saving
for the future

'cause there ain't no future
to save for no more.

Yeah?

We just got to help things
along a little bit.

- And how do we do that?
- Let me tell ya.

I've been thinking
about this little scheme.

You're not gonna print
that, are you?

Well, of course I am.

This town's never seen
a real meteorite before.

But the way
you are writing it,

people are going to believe
that the meteorite has something

to do with that crazy story
about the end of the world.

Michaela, people
already believe it.

Well, they shouldn't.

Michaela, I don't report
on what people should believe.

I report on what people
do believe.

But can't you wait
for a few days,

and then write
about the meteorite

once people realize this story
in the Post is only a hoax?

It'll be old news by then.

Your meteorite is a story
today.

Well, it doesn't seem
like much of a story to me.

I mean, nothing's happened
except...

- The water's red!
- Come see.

The water has turned red!

The water is red!

- What happened?
- The water is red.

She's right.
It's red.

It -- it's another sign.

It's probably
just mineral deposits.

I ain't never seen mineral
deposits like this before.

It's a sign.

- Oh, it's a sign, all right.
- Yeah.

Now, I'm sure
there's an explanation.

Well,
I don't need no explanation.

- What I need is a drink.
- Yeah.

Hank,
I want your finest whiskey.

Happy to oblige.
Come on.

I need a drink.

My own special blend here,
folks --

flaming fireball whiskey.

Yeah.
Only two days left.

- Drink up while you still can.
- Hey, Hank.

How you going to spend
your last two days?

I thought I might,
uh, buy me some of them

expensive cigars
you got in your store there.

Aye, that seems
like good thinking to me.

How about you, Robert E.?

What you gonna buy?

Don't know.

You got to want something.

How 'bout you, knothead?

None of your business.

How 'bout
another sarsaparilla?

How 'bout you shut up?

You better hope
the world's ending, Horace.

Look like you want to blow off
a little steam

before you go, Horace.

Drink up, boys.

It's almost over.

- Give me a case of whiskey.
- A case?

You can't drink
all that in two days.

I'll drink it whenever I want.

Another $10, you can drink
it right now for all I care.

I ain't paying
10 more dollars.

Then you ain't getting a case.

I'm offering you a fair price,
Hank.

I expect you to take it.

The world's ending, Jake.

- Ain't nothing fair anymore.
- Come on.

I'll take it, Hank, right here.

What are you doing,
Mr. Slicker?

What's it look like I'm doing?

Making a hole?

It ain't a hole.
It's a shelter.

What for?

For when that comet hits.

That paper said there's going
to be a big fireball

that kills everything
on the face of the Earth,

so I'm gonna wait it out
under the ground, nice and cozy.

Alone, all by yourself?

Yeah, that's right.

Can I see your shelter
when it's done?

No.
Nobody can see it.

And if you want one of your own,

you better
start digging right now.

We are not digging a shelter.

Mr. Slicker said
it's a good idea.

That comet hits,
hole in the ground

ain't gonna do you any good.

- Sully!
- He's right.

It hits us, we're goners.

There is no comet coming.

How come you're so sure, Ma?
Nobody else is.

Because I know a hoax
when I hear one.

Can you prove it's a hoax?

No, but I know someone
who can.

You really think he'll know
if the comet's coming or not?

Dr. James Edward Shomers

has taught astronomy at Harvard
for 30 years.

He'll know.

It's sent.

We ought to get an answer
real soon.

Thank you, Horace.

Aah!

Telegraph's gone dead,
Dr. Mike.

I think we got our answer.

Come on, hyah!

What if the reverend
has to cancel school

'cause no one's there?

Well, that'll give you
and Brian the chance

to catch up
on your chores at home.

You've been saving that money
ever since your first customer.

The last customer
ain't too far off.

I'm gonna spend it
while I still can.

Anything I can do to help you,
Grace?

Yes.

I want that fine china.

The set from New York?

No, the set from France.

I want something that's gonna
make people think

my place is special
before they go.

And if I have to spend
all my money...

Grace, please don't.

Why not?

Because it's not like you.

What if Robert E. suddenly
decided to quit working,

said he wanted to lie
around all day in the hammock?

Fine idea, Dr. Mike.

Now, I've been working every day
since before I could remember.

It's time I did nothing,
for once.

Loren, you got any hammocks?

You bet ya,
right by the candy jars.

Yeah, I want the biggest one
you've got.

- Robert E., I didn't mean...
- It's yours.

Anything else for you, Grace?

Yes, um, everybody, uh,
the café is officially closed!

And I would like to open up
a new restaurant this morning,

Chez Grace.

So you'd better
make your reservations early

if you want a table.
And deliver that.

We're meeting
by the kissing tree.

You mean,
not even showing up for school?

I was saving my fireworks
for the Fourth of July,

but not anymore.

No more school.
No more rules.

We're gonna do whatever we want.

Yeah, come on.

What's all that for?

My comet shelter.

Comet shelter?

What's a comet shelter, Jake?

Oh, nobody cares
about what Jake's doing.

I do.

I'm recording the last days
of Colorado Springs

and burying the story
in a metal box

so someone will know what
went on before the comet hit.

So, what's a comet shelter,
Jake?

Well, I'll show ya.
I'm going there right now.

I got just enough room for you.

I'm only reporting on it,
Jake.

I'm not gonna be in it
when the comet hits.

- That's gonna be $20.
- You're worse then Hank.

Why don't you give it to Jake
for free, Loren?

'Cause it costs $20,
that's why.

Well,
if the world's coming to an end,

what do you need money for?

I just want to see
how much I can make

before I go out of business
forever.

Come on.

You planning on eating
sometime, Robert E.?

I ain't planning on doing
nothing 'cept laying right here.

You ain't touched
your meatloaf, Horace.

- Something wrong with the food?
- Oh, no.

It -- it ain't the food, Grace.

My stomach's acting up.

Sorry.

Are you all right, Horace?

I guess it's all this talk
about the world ending.

I know what you mean.

What's worrying you, Myra?

I wish we could see the baby
before we go.

Hey,
you watch where you're going.

Or what?

Or this.

Aah! Aah!

You're not supposed to do that
until after I hit you, Horace.

What's wrong, Horace?

Looking at Hank's
making me sick.

Let's go to Dr. Mike.

I'll be all right.

This ain't over yet.

Yep.

This horse, about this tall.

You tell me what you think.

Why not, Ingrid?

It's not right, Matthew.

I don't want to die before...

Maybe we'll not go to heaven
then.

We're engaged.

But we're not married yet.

What if we get married...
today?

How?

We'll go see the reverend.

I bet he'll understand.

- Finished the bench.
- Thank you.

Thought maybe
we'd do something special

this afternoon.

'Cause we only
have one more day

before the great comet strikes?

'Cause you're the woman
I love,

and I'd like
to spend the afternoon with you.

You actually believe
it's true, don't you?

I ain't saying it's true.

Then what are you saying?

I'm saying,
what if it were true?

- Makes you think, don't it?
- No, it doesn't.

Well, it should.

'Cause even if it's not true
now, someday,

we're all gonna leave this life.

And when that time comes,
what are you gonna say,

"I sure wish I would've
read more medical books," or,

"I wish I would have spent time
with the folks I loved"?

Try pretending.

What would you want to do today?

I'm not very good
at pretending.

You need a little practice.

Well, there is something
that...

No, it's silly.

Says who?

My father.

Well,
what did he say was so silly?

Kites.

I could see them sailing
over the trees

on the common from my desk
when I was little.

I always imagined people
having so much fun flying them.

Then let's try
flying a kite today.

- No, I can't.
- Why not?

Because people would think

that I actually believe
that comet's coming.

What if we went some place
where nobody would see us?

I'm a grown woman.
I should be...

Flying a kite.

Come on.
I'll help.

Start running.
Get more line.

Go, go, go, go.
Don't stop.

Go. Run. Go.

Look, Sully!
Can you see?!

It's flying!
Flying!

Give it more line!

There it goes.

Look at it.

Oh.

Well...

Let's go get it.

No, it was lovely, Sully.

But I can't spend my day
chasing after a kite.

Becky. Oh.

Colleen. Oh.

- Almost.
- I almost had that one.

Keep it up.
Keep it up.

Here we go.
Yes.

Whoa, Becky.

Oh.

Oh, I almost had it.

Get it.
Whoa.

Oh.

- Got it.
- We can do anything we want.

Just wait till tonight
when we set these off.

You're staying out tonight?

We're staying up all night.

Brian.

I heard you talking back
at the store,

and I wanted to come, too.

- This isn't for kids.
- You're a kid.

You're a kid.
I'm a grown-up.

Are not.

I would have been one
real soon,

so I get to see what I'm missing
before the world ends.

Now, go on.

Now, this ought to count
for animals turning colors.

You bet.

Having fun?

Uh...

Michaela,
you're getting all riled up.

How'd she know
we'd be back here?

Everyone.

Everyone, look.

Look.

Here's another sign
that the world is ending.

Hank and Loren
were painting a horse blue.

Just having a little fun,
that's all.

And I suppose
you put something in the well

to make the water red?

Did you?

Well, I thought
that was funny, myself.

Yeah, real funny, you two.

- What is it?
- I believe its a geyser.

You gonna blame
that one on us, Michaela?

People, please,
let's not panic.

Please, just move along.

Reverend! Reverend.

We want to talk to you.

- Oh, perhaps later.
- Not later.

We want to marry now.

- You want to get married?
- Reverend, we need to speak.

I cannot marry you now.

Marry?
Don't be ridiculous.

You can't get married now.

Why not?

I simply don't have the time
for it.

Exactly.
There's no time.

And, as you can see,
the church is full right now.

Precisely.
There's no room in the church.

You may not have any time
or any room,

but we're still doing it.

Be reasonable, Matthew.

We have no time
to be reasonable, Dr. Mike.

Well, how are you going to get
married without the reverend?

We're gonna find a way!

Hey, Cloud Dancing.

You travel alone today?

Well, Colleen
wouldn't let me stay

and do grown-up things with her.

You will be a man soon enough.

I'm never gonna be a man.

The world's ending tomorrow.

Who told you this?

It was in the newspaper.

A famous scientist
said a comet's gonna hit us.

Do you trust this man?

Well,
he knew about all the signs.

I even found one of the falling
stars he said was coming.

The scientist tells you
that falling stars are a sign

the world is ending?

What else could they mean?

We believe they are souls
that make the journey

to their final destination.

Aho.

Thought you were gonna
take it easy in that hammock

for the rest of your life.

I can't just lay there, Grace.
The world's ending,

and we're not gonna
be here after tomorrow.

We're gonna be
in heaven, Robert E.

I'm not talking about heaven.

I'm talking about dying
when that comet hits,

and what's that gonna be like?

You can't think about that.

It's in God's hands now.

Maybe this comet
will not come.

All these signs, I don't see
how it's gonna miss us.

Will you stay with me
till the end?

Of course I will.

It feels like we
are married right now.

Sure does.

Oh.

Ooh.

Is that it?

It's all I had.

My Pa said
he'd take me to Philadelphia

next Fourth of July.

He says they got
the best fireworks there

'cause that's where it got
started in the first place.

Now we'll never get there
to see it.

I'll never have a ranch
of my own.

I'll never become a doctor.

Sure is dark.

Think this is what it'll be
like after the comet...

...when we're all gone?

I bet it will be
just like this.

But we'll all be together.

How do you know that?

How can anybody know
what heaven's like?

I heard it says in the Bible

that we all look different
in heaven

so that you can't recognize your
family or any of your friends.

I think I want to go home now.

Ma, if you take something
from somebody,

and they start getting mad,

do you think they'd stop
being mad if you put it back?

I suppose so.

Are you sure Colleen didn't say
where she was going?

She's doing grown-up stuff.

Where is she, Brian?

She don't want
anybody looking for her.

Where have you been?

Colleen?

I wanted to do something fun
with my friends

before it was too late.

Now, Colleen, I promise you...

Can you promise me for sure
what's gonna happen tomorrow?

- Well...
- How 'bout you, Sully?

Can you make sure
nothing bad happens?

No.
Nobody can do that.

Now, Colleen,
there's no reason

to fear tomorrow anymore then
next day or day after that.

There is no next day
or the day after that.

Of course there is.
I have no fear...

Just 'cause you're not afraid
doesn't mean I'm not afraid.

Now, you go spend
this final day with Margaret.

Reverend, are you all right?

I'm a little tired.

I think I've heard
the confession

of everybody in town
these last two days.

Do you have room for one more?

Yes, of course.

It's Colleen.

She's afraid.

We're all afraid.

Yes, but I --

I'm not sure what to do.

Who can be sure of
what to do at a time like this?

Well, I felt perhaps
you might know.

And so I should...

...but I don't.

Well, we all have times
of uncertainty.

Do you?

Do you have times
when you feel that you're not

sure you can give a patient
the help they need?

Of course.

What do you do?

I just simply do the best
I can.

Do you tell them
that you're unsure of yourself?

I try to be honest.

So, you always
tell your patients the truth?

Often patients
with difficult prognosis

will know the truth
without me saying it.

What happens then?

Then I try to be there
for them in whatever way I can.

Those patients
don't need my certainty.

They need me.

Thank you, Michaela.

Thank you, Reverend.

Sully, where's Brian?

He's not here?

He told me
he was going to see you.

He told me he was coming here.

Did you see him today?

I saw him at the store.

He had that meteorite.

Bet I know where he is.

It's the only place
he could have gone.

Dr. Mike!

My heart.

Don't worry.
I'll get him.

I want to go with you.

Please, Ma?

Go on.

I'll meet you at the church,
I promise.

My heart started pounding,
and I couldn't catch my breath.

My whole chest hurts.

When did this start?

Just now, when I started
thinking how that comet

was gonna be here in two hours.

Digitalis seems to be working.

You'll be fine.

Feel kind of foolish thinking
my heart was giving out.

Your nerves are nothing
to feel foolish about, Robert E.

You did the right thing
coming here.

Well, we better
go on over to the church.

- You gonna join us, Dr. Mike?
- Go on.

I'll meet you there.

I hope you can hear me, God!

I didn't know
this was somebody's soul,

or I never would have took it.

I'm real sorry,
and I'm putting it back.

Please, don't end the world.

Ow, ow.

Horace?

I fixed the telegram
and...Aah!

Hank, help me get Horace
into the clinic!

- I'm busy.
- Hank!

Hank!

Too bad for Horace.

Hank!

Just in case.

Standing here by yourself.

Please, come and join us.

I can't find Horace.

I'm sure he's --
he's all right.

I'm sure.

Matthew, have you seen Horace?

No, Myra.
I haven't.

He should have
been here by now.

He's most
likely manning his post.

You know how responsible he is.

Yes, he is.

I'd like to start.

I'm not sure that I know
how to lead a service

in this final hour.

But the one thing
that I do know --

The thing that I do know

is that I wanted the chance
to thank you all for your faith,

for your kindness...

...and for listening
to me preach so many Sundays.

I can't think of any people

that I'd rather be with
as the Lord calls me home.

Let's turn to Revelations,
chapter 6.

Thank God
the appendix hasn't burst yet,

so there's no fear
of peritonitis.

Peri-what?

Please, hand me the forceps.

Next to the scalpel.

I mean, next to the small knife.

What about comets, Michaela?

You got any fear of 'em?

Nope.

Scalpel.

Nothing scares Michaela Quinn,
right?

Hold this.

I'm frightened sometimes, Hank,
just like anyone else.

Yeah?

What scares you?

Same thing
that frightens all of us,

losing the people we love.

I thought that,
uh, buying that fancy china

would make
my café something special.

But it ain't the dishes.

It's the people
that made it special.

Uh, I, uh,

laid around in that hammock
as long as I could.

But the truth is

I never felt better than I
did after an honest day's work.

Well, I wanted to be
the richest man in town.

But, well,
if there was a tomorrow,

I'd give everybody their money
back.

I could've stayed in the comet
shelter if I wanted.

I had everything
I needed, except...

Except for all of us, Jake.

Well, I hope somebody
finds my story someday,

not because I want them to know
what we did here,

but because I want them to know
who we were.

Are you gonna just
leave him like this?

Right now my children
need me more.

Besides, he's not alone.

You're here to watch him.

♪ Nearer, my God, to thee ♪

♪ Nearer to thee ♪

♪ Even though it be a cross ♪

Where's Ma?

I can't find Dr. Mike.

Ma.

Dr. Mike.

Where is Horace?

- He collapsed.
- Oh, my goodness.

No, he's fine.
He's safe at the clinic.

It's too dangerous for you
to go out there right now.

But don't worry.
He's in safe hands.

I'm afraid.

I am too.

I'm afraid
I've never let you know

how important your feelings
are to me.

Oh.

Telegram, in my pocket.

I got to tell...I...

Horace.

It's probably nothing.

Loren, where are you going?

I'm going to your shelter.

But the world's not ending.

It is for me
if I don't get that bag of money

I left in there.

Look, Brian,
there's another one.

Thank you.

What?

Oh, nothing.
