Colorado Springs
says yes to statehood.

I thought Colorado
was a territory.

Well it is, but not for long.

Pretty soon we're going
to be another star on the flag.

Well, what's the difference
between a territory and a state?

Uh, a state -- a state is --

Have you learned about the
Revolutionary War yet, Brian?

Sure.

How our country
was once a British colony?

Right, we had
to fight the British

to get our independence.

That's right.

Well, we have a very similar
situation here in Colorado.

As a territory,
we're very much like a colony

of the federal government,

not allowed
to make our own decisions.

Taxation
without representation.

Very good.

As a state, we'll finally
have voice in Congress.

We'll be able to decide
on our own

who our governor will be.

Someday, that might even be you.

Until now,
statehood for Colorado

has only been a dream.

But with Ezra Leonard
at the helm,

that dream
is about to become a reality.

Who's he?

That's the man
we're waiting for.

He's gonna be coming
down that track

in a couple of minutes.

Can you open your mouth?

Ma, are you going
to the statehood speech?

I'm afraid I can't.

I'm gonna be away most
of the afternoon on house calls.

Aha, there it is --
the culprit.

- Ah.
- Tonsillitis?

Excellent, Colleen.

Now is -- is that serious?

Well, your fever is down.
That's a good sign.

I'll give you
some Dover's powder.

That should help
relieve the symptoms,

and hopefully, you should be
back to normal in a week or so.

Hey, Sully.

Everybody.

What's this?

- Lunch?
- Yeah.

Oh, Sully I'm sorry I
was supposed to meet you and --

That's all right.

I've just been so busy
today I --

I completely lost track of time.

Sully, are you going
to the statehood speech?

No, I'm on my way
out to the reservation.

Colleen, I have a good idea.

Why don't you go to the speech,

and then you can fill us
in on anything important.

Sure.

Welcome to Colorado Springs,
Mr. Leonard.

Hello, Preston.

How many times must I tell you?

Call me Ezra.

Ezra.

You remember my son, Caleb?

Of course, I do.

How's the bank?

Oh, it's picking up steam.

Why doesn't that surprise me?

This man comes to Denver,

asks for advice in setting up
a small financial enterprise.

The next thing I know,
he's running his own bank.

A small bank, I can assure you.

Ah, but not for long.

Mark my words folks,
this man is going places.

Not soon enough.

Well, I know your time is
limited in our fair town so...

Excuse me, Jake.

The podium's all yours.

Podiums are
for speechmakers, son.

I don't give speeches.

What I do...is speak my mind.

And for the last 10 years,

my mind has been focused
on one subject

and one subject only --
statehood for Colorado.

Twice in the past 10 years,

this issue has been launched.

And both times a small, but very
vocal group of naysayers

has managed to sink it.

But I, for one,
am not about to concede.

I'm on my way to Washington
to present this statement,

signed by a number
of prominent citizens,

to the Senate Committee
on Territories.

With it, I hope to --

no, I will push
through enabling legislation

that will put the future
of this territory

in the hands
of the people of Colorado.

Hey, hey.

Help.

No, Let go.

And as gentlemen

we shall take our fight
to the floors of Congress,

and fight we shall!

Surrender is not an option.

Help, help!

Brian.

- Somebody help.
- What's the matter, boy?

- Your son.
- What is it?

- What's happened?
- Somebody kidnapped him.

Come on.

He came right through here.

There's the trail.

This way.

He was over there
and somebody --

somebody grabbed him
from behind the tree.

Come on.
It's right over here.

- How many were there?
- I don't know.

I only saw some arms.

All right,
I'm getting a posse together.

- I'll go with you.
- Me too.

Look.

- Who are you?
- I am Walks Alone.

I have come with a message.

Do you know
what happened to my son?

- He is safe.
- Where is he?

Do not come any further
or he will be harmed.

What's the message?

You will ride to Cash Creek.

There you will hand
over the statement

that you have prepared for the
Senate Committee on Territories.

- What?
- You will also promise

to withdraw from
the Colorado Statehood Movement.

Look here now, you people

have always been
treated fairly by me.

- You have four days.
- Four days?

Here, here,
I can give it to you now.

Cash Creek, four days.

Only then will your son
be returned to you.

How dare you tell me
what to do.

He'll be there.

You're being watched.

If you follow me
the boy will be harmed.

You touch him,
and I'll kill you.

Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?

I'll kill you.
I'll kill you.

- Do you hear me?
- Hold on.

I can't find it anywhere.

I never heard of Cash Creek.

I ain't never heard
of such a stupid ransom demand.

Maybe we ought to call
in the marshal or the Army.

No, we're not calling
in the Army.

Walks Alone made it perfectly
clear what we have to do.

Walks Alone?

That's who we're dealing with?

- You know this woman?
- No, but I heard of her.

She's Noah McBride's squaw.

Who's Noah McBride?

Trapper, mountain man.

- I thought he was dead.
- I did too.

Then word come down
that he killed some grizzly

with a -- only a skinner

and made a necklace
with the claws.

Where does this charming
character live?

Backcountry.

Off the map.

Which is probably
where Cash Creek is.

Well, isn't there anyone
in town

who would know where to find it?

Sully.

Hey.

Smells good.

Paying you back
for missing lunch.

Kids home?

Not yet.

Here.

Why don't you let
me finish this?

Come over here.
Sit down.

I'm all right.

I know you are.

But baby needs a rest.

I think you're right.

It's been
kicking me all afternoon.

Come here.

What is that?

Heartbeat.

Someone's coming.

Sully, we need to talk to you.

Do you know
where Cash Creek is?

- Yeah.
- Can you take us there?

Oh, that won't be necessary.

If you could just
show us where on this map,

I'm sure we can find it.

We're not going up there
without a guide.

Then we'll hire one
who's adequately qualified.

Nobody knows these mountains
better than Sully.

Well, what's this all about?

- You mean you ain't heard?
- No.

We have some unfinished
business with Noah McBride.

Oh, I see you know him, too.

Not personally, but, uh,
I ain't got no quarrel with him.

He kidnapped my son.

Kidnapped?

It's true.

It'll be dark soon.

We'll ride in the morning
at first light.

Can we make it there
in four days?

Three, maybe,
if this weather holds.

I think we should leave now.
We'll save time.

No, the trail's rough
in spots.

Be easier to move
in the daylight.

Look, I know an expert tracker
that works out of Denver.

I'll wire him, get him here
first thing in the morning.

No, it's settled.

Sully's leading us.

We'll leave at daybreak.

Now you fellas
know I'd be riding with you

if it wasn't for my health.

Will you keep an eye
on my shop while I'm gone?

Jake, I want a full description
of McBride when you get back.

Not many folks
around here set eyes on him.

And live to tell about it.

I heard he scalped a whole
Blackfoot war party once.

That's just tall tales.

- I want the facts.
- It's true.

Four of them he scalped
while they were still alive.

Well, his mother
must be so proud.

Loren, I'd like to see
about a purchase, if I may.

Jake, what do you think
Leonard's worth?

You mean
from his mining business

or his family's money, too?

Are we ready, Sheriff?

Just about.
Still waiting for Sully.

Mr. Leonard, listen,
don't worry about your son.

We're gonna get him back
safe and sound.

Ever since his mother
passed away, he's all I've got,

and I'm not about to lose him.

Take the ride along with you.

I don't think
that will be necessary.

We have more than enough men
accompanying us.

But thanks for your concern.

If Robert E. wants
to come along, then he's coming.

Whatever you say Sheriff.

Just don't get in the way.

You sure you want to do this?

A child's been kidnapped.
Can't sit back and do nothing.

Facing the wrong way, Brian.

I love you guys.

- Love you too.
- Be good, all right?

Gentlemen, what do you think?

My first Peacemaker.

Isn't that what you call it?

You mean to say
you've never fired a gun before?

There's a first time
for everything, Jake.

He's carrying a gun
in town Sheriff,

ain't you gonna arrest him?

I'll allow it seeing
as we're riding out of town.

Well, in that case.

I want you and Matthew
to look out for each other.

We should be all right as long
as nobody does anything stupid.

Yeah.

You think Caleb will be safe?

McBride said
he wouldn't hurt him.

- Can you trust him?
- I don't know.

I still can't believe
he'd do something like this,

but he's known to be a man
of his word

and that's all I have to go on.

Either way, I'm not coming back
without that boy.

Everybody's ready.

You make sure you get plenty
of rest while I'm gone.

Don't be working too hard.

You just worry about bringing
the two of you back home safely.

Then I'll be able to rest.

I wish I could go with you.

Someone's got to stay behind
and look after the family.

While I'm gone, you're gonna be
the man of the house, all right?

Right.

I'll see you in a week.

Give or take a few days.

What's all this?

My personal aide and cook.

Cook?

Venturing into a savage land
need not make us savages,

Mr. Sully.

I'll deliver the ransom
to McBride,

but I will not play his game.

Be careful.

Let's go.

Better tell McBride
to be careful.

We'll water the horses
up here.

It was a modest operation
at best,

but it was a good start.

So, you were based
in San Francisco?

Originally, yes,

but I came in too late
and the business was slow.

So I, uh, moved my entire
company out here.

Because of a rumor?

The greater the risk,
the greater the triumph.

Or the greater the fall.

No, you must never allow
failure to enter the picture.

Quitting is not an option.

Which is why I won't quit,
Mr. Sully,

until my son is safe and McBride
is brought to justice.

Let's just concentrate
on getting your son back first.

- All right?
- Tell me, Mr. Sully,

you're a former mountain man.

Why do you suppose
McBride kidnapped my son?

It's pretty clear.

He doesn't want this territory
turning into a state.

But why?

A lot of folks believe that
statehood will change things.

Of course it will.

It's a symbol of progress.

McBride won't be able
to stop this, you know.

It's inevitable.

Yeah, well,
he doesn't know that.

All he knows is what he sees.

Mining companies
tearing up these hills,

drying up the creeks,
chasing off his game.

You'll have
to excuse Mr. Sully,

he's got a tender spot
in his heart

for squirrels and bunnies
and such.

Yes, well, the only tender spot

I have is for the future
of Colorado.

The success
of which is tied to two things,

and only two things --
mining and statehood.

Hear, hear.

Brian, what are you doing?

Sully said something
about this door handle

being loose
and not shutting right.

So, I'm gonna fix it for him.

Oh, I'm sure it'll wait
until he gets home.

No, I'm the man of the house.

I can do it.

Ma?

Miss Grace was asking
if she can bring Anthony

in tomorrow morning.

Oh, that's fine.

But you already
have a full day scheduled.

Well, one more patient
won't be a problem,

especially Anthony.

Ma, are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

Maybe you should go lie down.

No, no it's all right.

I'm just a little tired,
that's all.

There, finished.

More wine, Mayor Slicker?

Yeah, thank you.

You run a fine camp, Ezra.

It's my motto -- bringing
civility to an untamed land.

Enjoy tonight, folks.

I'm sending them both
back in the morning.

- What?
- The trail gets rough tomorrow.

There's no room for a wagon.

Soon enough,
these trails will be roads,

these hills will be towns,

and a man like McBride
will be nothing more

than an amusing anecdote
in a history book.

Just like I said,
that's why he took the boy.

Are you defending him?

The man's an outlaw.

I'm not defending him.

I'm just saying
I understand why he did it.

Kidnapping Caleb was wrong,

but in his mind, McBride
thought he had no other choice.

The Indians have always said
he's a man of honor,

and I want to believe
that if we ride into Cash Creek

and we hand over that statement,

he'll let Caleb go,
unharmed just like he said.

You're almost as naive
as McBride, you know that?

Oh, I'll hand
over the Senate statement,

and I'll even give him my word
as a gentleman

that I'll withdraw
from the statehood movement,

if that's what he wants.

But once my son is returned,

what's to keep me
from getting back on that train

and continuing right on
to Washington?

Your word as a gentleman.

Excuse me, Loren.

I need to order some new sheets
for the clinic.

Bless my stars,
ain't you getting big.

You've got a girl in there,

- mark my words.
- A girl?

Yep, it's the way you're
carrying -- just like Maude.

Oh.

Good morning, everyone.

Good morning, Reverend.
How are you feeling?

Ah, my throat's still sore
but the powder's helping.

- What is it, tonsils?
- Mm.

Well, you know
what they say about tonsils.

When they start acting up,
there's only one cure.

That's not necessary, Loren.

We remove them
only as the last resort,

and right now, your condition
doesn't warrant it.

Oh, um...

Hey, Dr. Mike you all right?

Um, I'm just tired
that's all. I --

I think I should just lie down
for a moment.

Colleen would you, uh,
make the order?

Sure.

Ma?

I'm worried about you.

Colleen, I --

I don't think it's any reason
for you to worry.

I'm sure this will pass.

What will?

Ma, what's wrong?

I, uh...

I have experienced
a little bleeding.

Bleeding?

Oh.

It's very mild.

It happens sometimes
during pregnancy.

Ma, you got to slow down.

You're pushing
yourself too hard.

I'm not pushing myself any
harder than I have in the past.

In the past,
you weren't pregnant.

That must be Grace
and Anthony.

Ma, you got to lie down.

I will, I promise,
as soon as I've seen Anthony.

Afternoon.

What do you people want?

Relax, folks.

We're not looking
for any trouble.

Then you best
just keep riding.

Is the trail
passable to Cash Creek?

Yeah, here and there.

Then we'll be moving on.

There many other families
out here?

No.

And I aim to keep it that way.

Good luck.

Interesting character.

Remind you of anyone you know?

Mountain man turned family man?

Once a legend
of the rugged backcountry

now cooking supper
for his pregnant wife.

Don't take me wrong,
Sully I want nothing

but the best
for you and Michaela.

I can picture you right now
with the new baby,

rocking him to sleep, changing
his little buckskin diapers.

They're a fascinating couple
really.

She a cultured doctor
from Boston and he a --

What is your occupation, Sully?

I know you build things
on occasion

and go visit Indians
on the reservation

from time to time, but...

Well, I guess
with his wife's income,

he doesn't really have to work.

If I were you,
I'd keep my mouth shut.

What do you say, Sully?

Do you think I should keep
my mouth shut?

I don't think
it's possible, Preston.

Oh, of course it is.

But it's up to you.

Go ahead, shut me up.

Some other time.

That's right, some other time.

Admit it, Sully,
your fire's gone out.

You're just like this country,
wild and untamed,

now slowly becoming
domesticated.

It's Saturday.

Aren't you going fishing?

I can't,
too many things to do.

- Here, you missed breakfast.
- Thanks.

I got up early
to clean the barn.

So, you think it
will hold this time?

I won't quit till it does.

Colleen, could you
come here, please?

Ma?

I want you to ride
to the clinic for me.

I need some belladonna
and also some ice.

Are you bleeding again?

It -- it's increased.

I -- I thought it would stop
on it's own.

You stay in bed
and put your feet up.

I'll wire to Denver
for Dr. Bernard.

I'm all right.
Just bring me the belladonna

- and the ice.
- And then I'm wiring Denver.

- Colleen.
- You stay in bed

and don't move.
I'll be right back.

- The Senate statement?
- Mm.

It's a small price
to pay for the life of my son.

That's not only my voice
in that statement.

It speaks for the 40,000
residents of this territory

who are ready to vote
for themselves.

Not colored folks.

It's going
to be difficult enough to get

the voting legislation approved.

Don't worry.

A few years down the line,
your people

will be cleaned up
and better educated.

And then you can have
your own say.

Cleaned up?

Socially, I meant.

No offense intended.

Will you run for governor?

Perhaps.

Although my driving passion
is the Senate.

As was my father's.

He ran unsuccessfully in '60.

Then he tried to pass
his ambition down to his sons.

You got brothers?

Four.

I'm the youngest.

Five brothers.

It must have been difficult
to get a word in, huh?

There is a fair amount
of competition.

My father encouraged it.

He loved watching his sons
battle it out to gain his favor.

He drove us very hard.

Sounds like a happy home.

We had our moments of discord,

but my father never let
it descend into all out warfare.

Instead,
whenever two of us quarreled,

he'd settle it
in a civilized fashion.

How's that?

Boxing.

Boxing, civilized.

New rules have been
drafted in England

by the Marquess of Queensberry,

that emphasize skill and agility
over raw strength and savagery.

My father taught us to box
under those rules.

Unfortunately, as the youngest,

I spent much of the time
on the floor.

But I did learn how to box.

Are you going to show us
some of them moves?

Against you?

Why not?

It's been a while
since I mixed it up.

At least a week.

This I have to see.

Don't want to ruin
them fancy clothes.

Yes, I'm afraid
some of your blood

might splatter on them.

Listen,
you don't have to do this.

It's all right,
it's a pleasant diversion.

Isn't that right, Hank?

Very pleasant.

Skill and agility, Hank.

Raw strength.

The fight's not over, Hank.

I'm going to knock that smile
off your face.

Just keep trying, Hank.

Breathing a little hard there,
Hank.

Who's next?

Matthew?
Jake?

Hey, Robert E.

Well done.

Well done.

How about you, Sully?

I know, I know --
some other time.

Ma?
The doctor's here.

Oh, it's really not necessary,
Colleen I --

Dr. Cassidy?

Good day, Dr. Quinn.

I received your daughter's wire
yesterday,

and I got here as soon
as I could.

Where's Dr. Bernard?

He's away, unfortunately --
family business back East.

But don't you worry,

I've treated my share
of pregnant ladies.

Well, what's it been
since our last meeting?

Two years?

Are you still racing horses?

Of course,

and are you still dressing up
as men to ride them?

Oh, what a fine home
you have here.

I must say, it's good to see

that you finally decided to
settle down and raise a family.

I still have my practice,
Dr. Cassidy.

This pregnancy
is not affecting my work.

Um, well, yeah,

it appears that your work may
have affected your pregnancy.

What have you done
for the bleeding?

I stopped it with
an application of belladonna

and ice.

Um, and are you
feeling any discomfort?

- No.
- Good, good.

Well, let's have a look.

I -- there's, uh,
no need for an examination.

I'm a doctor.

So am I.

And I've controlled
the bleeding.

Fine.

You need to remain in bed
for several days.

I need to go to the clinic.
I have patients to see.

The health of your baby

is more important
than your playing doctor.

If you can set aside your vanity
for one moment

and concentrate on that,
you will know that I'm right.

Now, stay home
where mothers belong.

Where's the trail?

It's right here.
There's trail markers.

Should be to Cash Creek
by tomorrow morning.

Just in time
for that ransom exchange.

Do you know
how to use that thing?

- When I have to.
- Of course he does.

He's very adept
at hitting fence posts.

Isn't that right, Sully?

An old mine shaft.

Wonder if there's anything
in there.

Hey, look at this.

It's abandoned.

It must have gone dry.

The gold rush is over,
gentlemen.

Colorado's future
now lies with silver.

Deep ore drilling,
that's where a miner gets rich.

How about it, Sully?

You used to be a miner.

You gonna go work for Ezra?

You were a miner?

It was a long time ago.

Before your domestication.

I'd like to talk to you
about it sometime.

Not much to tell.

Well, that's fortunate
because we're pressed for time.

Just a reminder,

when we get to Cash Creek
your job is over.

Don't worry about it.

But that's just it, you see.

I do.

Your friends may have all
the faith in the world in you,

but I don't trust you
for a second.

If you do anything
to jeopardize that boy --

Don't threaten me.

- There's got to be something.
- Have you thought about

what you're gonna say
to McBride

when you finally meet him?

I'm sure there's a part of you
that wants to stay out here.

Ride off into the hills
with him.

Oh, but no,

I'm sure Michaela's leash
is a little too tight for that.

But then, with a girl
like Michaela

who can blame you for heeling
when she calls?

She's really something --

spirited, fiery,
yet remarkably sensual.

What are you gonna do now,
scalp me?

It appears I was wrong
about you, Sully.

You haven't been domesticated.
You're still a savage.

You belong out here
with all the other savages,

with McBride.

Cash Creek is
just over that ridge.

It cuts through a narrow valley.

Once we get there,

we'll take up our positions
inside the tree line.

I'll go with you
to make the exchange.

No, I want Sully.

Do you think that's wise?

Sully knows how this man
thinks.

That's my point.

If he's in any way
sympathetic toward McBride --

All I want is
to get the boy back.

You need someone
you can trust.

This discussion is finished.

Sully's going with me.

What do you got against Sully?

Ever since I arrived in town,
he's been getting in my way.

I'm growing tired of it.

Ma, what are you doing here?

I work here remember?

What about
what Dr. Cassidy said?

Well, I'll try
not to overdo it.

The bleeding's stopped
and I'm feeling fine.

Dr. Cassidy just doesn't want
you coming to work

because he
doesn't like women doctors.

Well, I'll stop by
after school and help you out.

I appreciate that.

Wait till you get home.

I finished fixing the door --
good as new.

I sounds wonderful.
I can't wait to see --

Ma?

Ma, what is it?

Oh.

Brian, ride out
to the reservation

- and get Cloud Dancing.
- Right.

Ma?

Dr. Cassidy's in the saloon,
should I get him?

This is Cash Creek.

You ready?

Let's get this over with.

Leave it, leave it.

We're gonna be sitting ducks
out there.

You walk out there with a gun,
and your son's as good as dead.

All you got to do
is hand over the papers

and give him your word.

Let's go.

Where is he?

He's around.

He's probably watching
us right now.

So what does he --
what does he expect us to do?

Just wait.

What?

What is it?

Somebody's coming.

Caleb.

Where's McBride?

Watching.

He is close enough
to hear your promise.

I hereby give you my word
as a gentleman

to end my involvement
with and withdraw my name

now and forever from
the Colorado Statehood Movement.

The Senate statement.

Where's McBride?

Watching.

I know he's watching.

I want to see him.

I want to give these to him
personally.

Give them to me.

I want to see McBride.

I want to see McBride.

Give them to her now.

Run Caleb, run, run.

Father!

Where's he firing from?

I can't see him.

Father!

- Up on the ridge.
- They got the boy.

Look there.

He's over there.
Over there.

- Go.
- Stay down.

You could have gotten
us killed.

Where's Matthew?

Matthew.
