Previously on When Calls the Heart.

On his wife, Nora Avery. You lied to me. Please, you don't know the whole story.

Why didn't things work out between us? Rosie.

Clara, you're free now.

I would like it very much if you came home with me. Make a handsome couple.

He's one of my favorite people.

It's so good to see everyone. I'm so happy to be back.

Oh, we're very happy that you're back. And you must tell us everything about

Hamilton. Oh, well, it was so wonderful catching up with my sisters and parents

and friends. I understand your mother was quite ill. How is she?

Much better. Thank you for asking.

Well, I'm just glad you're back in time for school to begin.

I know the children are looking forward to it.

Are they?

I've missed all of them so much.

And all of you.

Though I presume you've missed someone in particular the most.

Well, I believe Miss Thatcher will be occupied for the remainder of the

evening. Shall we?

I've been looking for you.

Yeah, just got back in from Rock Creek.

It's good to see you.

You too.

One more dance. No, you said that three dances ago, and now I am thirsty. May I

please have something to drink? Me too, please. Thank you.

Hey,

who is the woman that Jack is talking to?

Oh, well, that's Elizabeth, the woman of the hour.

Our dear little schoolteacher.

Do I detect a note of jealousy?

Now, don't be silly. I've never been jealous of another woman. Never in my

whole life.

Really? I don't know.

You and Jack seem pretty chummy to me.

Now who's jealous?

I've never been jealous a day in my life either. I'm just interested in the

history. Well, that's exactly what it is. History.

Okay.

The town must just love Elizabeth to welcome her home like this.

This is your home now too, Clara.

I'm glad you agreed to come back with me.

It's a fresh new start.

I hope so.

And thank you so much for giving me a job at the cafe.

Oh, there isn't anyone I would rather work side by side with every day.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Oh, Mr. Coulter was just telling me that his sawmill will be opening tomorrow.

Our sawmill. As far as I'm concerned, the mill belongs to everyone in this

town. Including me.

Especially you.

In fact, tomorrow, the first board we cut is going to be yours.

Well, how about that? My very own board.

I'm so honored. Oh, I love this song. Lee asked me to dance.

Rosemary, would you like to dance?

Hmm, let me see.

Yes. Okay. It's nice to meet you. You too.

He seems like an interesting character.

Yeah.

He's a good man.

And apparently sweet on Rosemary.

Uh-huh.

He couldn't have been too pleased when our brave Mountie swooped in to save the

town's cherished actress.

Yeah. Look, Elizabeth, about that... I'm teasing you.

I've learned to take everything that woman says with a shaker full of salt

Aren't you

going to ask me to dance?

No Come for a walk with me

Keep them closed.

They are.

Okay.

Open.

Jack.

It needs a few finishing touches, but it'll be ready by the time school

starts.

What do you think?

You like it?

You did that?

I had to help.

It's wonderful.

Welcome home.

Utensils on the left, napkins on the right.

I set the tables a half an hour before we open. That shouldn't be a problem.

Good. Today's menu is simple.

Roast chicken and ham steak. No sweet potatoes.

Jason Campbell will ask, and you'll have to remind him that the ground froze this

year and the crop is late. No sweet potatoes.

Now, we will be busy the first hour we're open. Keep the coffee cups filled

and they won't squawk.

No potatoes.

Keep their coffee filled.

Good. I'm going to leave this in your capable hands.

Oh, and Friday is payday. Oh, you don't have to pay me. You've done so much for

me already.

Clara, no matter where you go or what you do, you mustn't let people take

advantage of you.

Always remember that.

One down, thousands to go.

All right, take it to the saloon, boys. Make sure everyone signs it, all right?

Gowan, we're just in time. In time for what?

Well, despite your best efforts, the mill is up and running. That there is

our first board.

Congratulations.

Don't pretend you're happy for us. You've been gouging me with fees and

drowning me in paperwork since I got here.

I only have the best interests of this town in mind. I always have.

The only interest you have in mind is your own.

But that doesn't concern me.

Because I'm going to do more for this town than you ever did. The mill is just

the beginning.

Good morning.

I assume Constable Thornton showed you the new school?

He's done such a wonderful job.

You have no idea. That man was pounding nails like he was Noah bracing for the

flood.

He wanted to get it finished before you came home.

Good morning, ladies.

Good morning, Constable.

Chilly day today, isn't it?

It is.

Mr. Harper, what brings you to town?

Ladies, sorry to disturb.

I'm in a bind.

Mrs. Blakely, I was hoping maybe you could help me.

Of course, as long as I can.

You see, my brother's fallen ill, and he has a ranch just south of Jameson. I

need to go lend a hand for a day.

I was hoping maybe you could look in on the kids while I was gone. Nellie can do

most of the chores, and Patrick, he tries his best, but I'd really just feel

more comfortable if there was somebody there to watch over him. I'm sorry. I

would if I could, but I have to take my youngest to the doctor in Buxton.

Of course.

Thank you.

I could do it.

Are you sure, Miss Thatcher? I mean, it's an awful lot to take on all by

yourself. Mr. Harper, I may have been raised in the city, but I am a Hope

Valley woman now.

Besides, I'll have Nellie and Patrick there to help me.

Well, I mean, it is only a day.

Thank you. I do appreciate it. It's my pleasure.

I don't need anyone to look in on me.

And Constable Thornton is far too busy to look after me.

Isn't he?

The grid and the geological look good.

Prime location for a railway spur.

That's what I like to hear.

I'm taking orders left, right, and center.

I guarantee I can fill three rail cars a week.

Railway makes money. I avoid having to truck my lumber all the way over to the

main line. Oh, you can guarantee those orders?

Better believe I can.

And business aside, imagine what the spur line's gonna mean for the people of

Hope Valley.

Trains in and out every week.

It's exactly what this town's been waiting for.

I'll have to speak to the chief engineer first, but I can't imagine what we're

getting our way.

Good news is my favorite kind.

Can I buy you a drink? We've got some work to finish up.

Track me down this afternoon. Okay, deal.

Oh, and can...

I just keep this between you and me for now.

I understand.

Okay. Excellent. Thank you.

What else? Watch the door on the chicken pen. The latch tends to fall open if you

don't pin it shut. Believe me, you do not want to wake up with chickens

scattered all over Hell's Half Acre.

No, of course not.

Just keep the animals fed and you'll be fine. The kids will fill you in on

anything else. The indoor chores, Dad?

Oh, yeah.

It's going to get real cold at night, so I'd get the fire going first thing in

the morning. At about what time?

Four would be good.

4 a.m.? Mm-hmm. And remember to secure the door when you go to bed.

There's a couple coyotes around here who think they're house pets.

Coyotes? Yeah, but they're not strong enough to break down the door if it's

locked.

Um, you might want to wear something a little less dear to your heart.

Oh, this will be fine, I'm sure.

Suit yourself.

All right, kids, you be good, you hear?

Thank you, Miss Thatcher, I do appreciate it. Have a safe trip.

Thank you.

Miss

Thatcher?

Miss Thatcher!

Are you okay?

What are you doing up at this hour?

It's 4 o'clock. We always get up at this time.

Already?

Shall we have some breakfast?

We have to do the chores first.

Oh, all right.

What are they?

We start with mucking the stalls.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

What's that?

We clean up after the cows and horses.
