Original subtitles

Previously on When Calls the Heart. I have no intention of trying to be

something that I'm not. Why are you doing all of this for me? Well, I just

figured it's about time someone started looking after you two. You're hiding

something. Whatever it is, I'll find out.

So many people have issues with romance.

You wouldn't think it would be that hard, would you? But it is. I don't know

if I'm brave enough to spend my life with someone as brave as you.

Why are you doing this?

Doing what?

Pushing us apart.

I'm just trying to be honest with you.

Jack, don't you see I'm... trying to tell you that I'm afraid of losing you.

I'm afraid you're gonna die.

Nobody knows what the future's gonna bring.

All I know is what I feel for you.

Question is, what do you feel for me?

Rip?

Rip!

Rip, here, boy.

I think he's this way.

No, that's an echo. He's down here.

No, he's this way.

Rip!

Rip!

Rip!

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth! Oh, my jacket just knocked me down. I'm fine. Be sure.

Anything broken?

I don't think so. Okay.

Grab my hand.

Slowly.

Oh, my knee.

Okay. Just take it easy. Sit here for a second.

Let's get you up slowly.

Slowly.

Rip,

we need to find Rip. Right now, we need to get you back to the fire so I can

look at that D. Hold this.

Jack, I don't need any help.

I'll argue about that later.

Your wife ambushed me at the Mercantile and made a spectacle in public. I have

never been so embarrassed in my life.

Abigail, I'm so sorry. Nora thinks I'm encouraging you. I've made it very clear

that's not the case. She doesn't believe you. She thinks I invited you to Hope

Valley.

I promise this will never happen again.

I hope not.

I'm sorry I lost my temper with Abigail.

You should be apologizing to her, not me.

I guess I'm still not ready to let you go.

Not that fight you want your son back Nora not me

Martin's

gone And there's nothing we can do to change that

It's time that you let go

It's time that you let him go

May I?

Life seems fine to me.

It's the other knee.

Oh.

Uh, sorry.

No cuts, no swelling.

It's probably just bruised.

You're in shock.

Here.

That helps, thank you.

You'll feel better soon.

This is all my fault.

How so?

I let Rip out.

That was an accident. You didn't know.

It's crazy.

I spent so much time worrying about what would happen to you.

Look what happened to me.

Well, you just proved that being a schoolteacher is just as dangerous as

being a Mountie.

Apparently, I did.

I just wish you would have picked a less dramatic way to make your point.

You know, I hear that the best thing about

arguing is making up.

I've heard that too.

Rip.

I'll get him.

Stay here.

I'm not going anywhere.

Well, that's the last item on the list.

Good. Now you can tell Henry you won't be shutting down after all.

Well, it's one less thing for me to worry about.

He's made my life so unpleasant lately, I have to admit it's been difficult to

find forgiveness in my heart for him.

Well, people are rarely as good or bad as we think they are.

They're usually a combination of both.

Even when it comes to pastors?

Especially when it comes to pastors.

Okay. Well, now that we're done, I'm going fishing.

Some fresh air does sound good.

It sure does.

I think I'll get going once the storm clears.

I used to love to go fishing.

You wouldn't be looking for an invite, would you? Oh, no. I have so much work

to do here. Dishes to wash, floors to wax, pies to bake.

Although...

I haven't been fishing in a very long time.

Do you have anything else?

I do have some French lice. Let's take a look at that. Certainly.

Oh, Rosemary.

I'm glad I found you.

What is it, Molly?

Well, you know, Lee and I have been quartering. Yes, I think everyone knows.

Yes. Well, I know you and Lee had been spending time together and...

I just wanted to make sure everything was all right between us.

Oh, um, well, how nice of you to ask.

I think that it is just fine.

You're sure?

I wouldn't want to do anything that would... If Lee wants to court you,

that's really none of my business now, is it?

Oh, I'm so glad.

Say, you're probably the right person to ask.

Ask what?

How soon in a relationship do you think it's appropriate to accept jewelry from

a suitor?

Jewelry. Or is it never too soon?

I... Oh, dear.

I'm late.

Thanks for the advice.

Go

on!

It was you, wasn't it?

You're the one who told Nora I was here. You're the only one who would have known

how to find her. Well, a more pressing question is why did she need to be told?

And why would a husband deceive his wife about his whereabouts?

She's the one who ran out on our marriage.

Why is she here then?

Don't play games with me.

You had your chance with Nora years ago and you didn't take it. No, I didn't.

You know why?

You left Hamilton to work here. I left because I was transferred.

There were racketeering charges brought up against Pacific Mining.

The company was reorganized. That was my investigation.

All charges were dropped. There's always a scapegoat, though, isn't there?

I see.

So you blame me.

Now we understand one another.

I'm gonna tell you this once.

Stay out of my private life.

This is a small town.

You know, people's lives rarely remain private.

It's a shame that Abigail Stanton had to get caught up in the middle of this.

You know how people love to talk in this town.

I'm warning you. Take your best shot, Bill.

I am a public official.

You lay a hand on me, you'll be spending quite some time in jail.

Rip, here, boy.

Rip, there you are, buddy. Come here.

Oh, buddy.

I got a treat for you.

Did you miss me?

Here you go. You missed me. I missed you, too.

Let's go home.

You were so scared.

Father won't be long. Would you care for some tea while you wait?

That's very kind.

Lionel and I are leaving for the opera since he arrives.

Some tea.

We missed you at the club last weekend.

Work has kept me busy.

My father has kept you busy.

First to arrive, last to leave.

Told him to slow down.

He doesn't know how.

So?

So... Have you heard from Elizabeth?

She's been on your mind, hasn't she?

You'll be glad to know she's safely back in Hope Valley, once again playing

teacher in the Wild West.

Her students must be happy to have her back.

Please, you don't have to pretend to be supportive of her little adventure for

my sake.

We both know it's time she closes that chapter of her life and gets on with

things. She doesn't seem to see it that way.

That's why you have to convince her to come home.

I'm not sure it's my place. Can you honestly picture her spending the rest

of her life in that town?

Raising a family with a Mountie, no less.

I hope it doesn't come to that.

Then you need to convince her to come back.

Because I know you, Charles.

I know how deeply you care for her.

You always have.

And if you don't tell her how you really feel, you'll regret it for the rest of

your life.

Whiskey.

Mr. Coulter, what's happening in the world today?

Well, to be honest with you, not a whole heck of a lot.

You might want to check tomorrow's paper, though.

You know, why's that?

No reason. I just have a feeling that it's gonna be a big news day.

Would that have anything to do with Miss Laveau's nasty editorial? The one that

you convinced Mr.

Bolt to allow her to write about me?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

It does, however, sound like a page-turner, doesn't it?

Yeah, it's unfortunate that it won't see the light of day.

I just came from a meeting with Mr. Bolt, and it would seem that he's not

quite as keen on the story as he once was.

I see.

You had the story killed.

Well, I simply...

suggested to him that perhaps there would be more interesting stories for

him to run on the front page of his newspaper. Oh, I'm sure. Let me guess.

Mr. Patterson's prized chicken wins Blue Ribbon at county fair, something like

that? That is a good one, but even better, there is an inspector from the

Mounted Police in town.

Now, that's something that I'd like to know more about.

Good afternoon.

I'm guessing the two of you weren't making dinner plans.

I have no idea how that man always manages to land on his feet.

He's smart and dangerous.

You seem to know him pretty well.

Henry Gowen and I go way back.

From what I remember of the mining trial, you weren't exactly best of

friends.

Did he say anything I should know about?

No, nothing important.

But I'd watch my back if I were you.

How's the advice column going?

Well, sometimes I wonder if I'm the right person to be writing it.

Oh, dear. Something must be terribly wrong if you're not ready to hand out

advice. As it turns out, I think I could use some myself.

Would this have anything to do with Lee Coulter and Molly Sullivan?

Well, it has everything to do with it. I heard you decided to cool things off

with Lee. I did.

And now? And now...

I think I've made a terrible mistake.

Well, you've had such success with your column.

Why don't you try writing yourself a letter of advice?

Oh, I wouldn't even know how to begin.

Let's see.

You could start with, Dear Jealous. I think hurt and confused would be

more appropriate.

Are you sure about that?

Yes, quite sure.

All right.

Dear Hurt and Confused, you've clearly made a terrible mistake by not following

your heart. Yes.

Yes, that's it.

Dear Hurt and Confused, you poor thing.

You've made a terrible mistake by not following your heart.

If you truly have feelings for this man, you need to let him know.

How else can he see the poor decision that he's made?

Abigail, you're brilliant.

This is the perfect answer for poor little hurt and confused.

For a moment there, I forgot that I was writing to myself.

I guess I haven't lost my touch after all.

You truly have a gift. I know.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to take my own advice.

Hey, the road ends here.

Follow the fence about 100 yards to the east until you come to an abandoned

cabin. Put your back against the south wall, step ahead 20 paces straight

ahead. Dig down about two feet, and you'll find a metal box.

It has the rest of the counterfeit bills.

Get better, or you'll be calling federal prison home for the rest of your life.

How are you feeling?

It's as good as new.

Good.

The storm's past.

We can head back to town if you're up for it.

Can we stay here just a little while longer?

Yeah.

What for?

In here, it's just the two of us, and out there, everything is...

Complicated. I know exactly what you mean.

But whatever challenges we have to face out there, I believe that we can take

them on together.

It really feels like we've been given a second chance today.

I don't want to waste it.

Especially now that I've seen your knees.

Jack.

I love you, Elizabeth Thatcher.

I'll tell Pastor Frank we'll go fishing another day.

You'll do no such thing. I'm fine.

Elizabeth, I really think I should stay with you.

It's okay, Abigail.

I'll stay with her.

All right.

That won't be long.

You should really head upstairs to get some rest.

I'm fine right where I am.

You've been to a lot.

You should... Jack, as much as I like the idea of having you tend to me hand

and foot, I'm not an invalid.

Just a very bad patient.

Well, if you want to get me that blanket, I won't object.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Now I don't feel like resting.

It's because you're still talking.

And we don't have to talk.

I think I found us the perfect spot. Right on the dock.

Oh, that is the perfect spot.

What's in the can?

Oh, worms.

I wouldn't insult the fish with artificial food.

Did your father teach you how to fish? Oh, no. My father didn't believe in

girls fishing.

He used to take my brothers every Saturday while I was home doing the

washing. So I made my own pole, and I would sneak down to the river all by

myself.

Wow. Bet you got in a mess of trouble for that.

Well, I would have.

But having extra fish for Sunday supper was a blessing with our big family.

You never came home empty-handed? No, I wouldn't dare.

But I'll tell you what.

I'm willing to bet that my worms will catch more fish than whatever you're

using.

Well, I wouldn't want to take your money.

No, no money.

Just your pride.

Wow, you really are confident.

You bet I am.

I like that in a woman.

So what do you say? Are we on?

You are on.

Okay.

Hello, Lee.

Am I interrupting anything?

No. No, not at all.

What can I do for you?

I was hoping we could talk.

All right.

What would you like to talk about?

I feel like there's been a little misunderstanding between us.

About you and me not wanting the same thing. When I think we do.

Want. the same thing.

And what exactly is this thing that we both want?

You and I, we've always been a great team. Like when we beat Gowan at

poker. That was fun, yes, wasn't it? It was fun.

So what do you say?

Perhaps I could consider entertaining.

your romantic attentions.

Perhaps.

When I said I wasn't ready to be swept away, what I meant was I didn't want to

make the same mistake twice.

I've rushed into things before, Lee, and I made a terrible mess of things, and

the worst part, I hurt somebody that I cared a lot about.

Jack.

Jack does seem to have recovered.

Yes, he did. Yeah.

But I want to make sure I get it right this time.

Look, I know I can seem so

glamorous and larger than life.

But underneath... I'm just... Rosemary.

It's okay.

I know.

You do?

Of course I do.

There's just one problem.

Yes.

Molly saw them.

Well, I really don't want to have to hurt her feelings.

You may have to hurt her feelings just a little bit. All right.

Well, maybe I can let her down gently then. Yes.

Yes.

When?

I'll do it right now.

I told you it was a perfect spot.

Calm waters with just the right amount of current.

God smiled on us today.

Some of us more than others.

Okay, you don't need to rub it in.

Admit it.

Bait trumps your rusty fishing lures.

All right, all right. You win the bet.

So to show you what a good sport I am, how about this time I make you dinner?

You cook.

Trout.

So it's your lucky day.

I guess it is.

Are you all right, dear?

I'm fine.

You work for Henry Gowen, don't you?

Dottie Ramsey.

I'm his secretary.

Saw you at his office.

Mr. Gowen says the two of you have been friends for a long time.

We met before you moved here.

He used to work in Hamilton.

He told me...

That you lost your son.

That must have been unbearable for you.

I don't think anyone can understand what it's like.

You know, people around here understand better than you think.

How could they?

A little over a year ago, there was an accident at the mine.

Wives lost their husbands, and mothers lost their sons.

You have more in common with the people of Hope Valley than you know.

It's hard to talk about it.

Hmm.

Maybe it's time for you to try.

Well, Elizabeth, how are you feeling? Do you want something to eat? I'm fine,

Abigail. You don't need to do a thing for me.

It wasn't that bad.

Not that bad?

Jack said it could have been quite serious.

I guess so.

Looks like the Mountie saved the day.

Well, I hope you two were able to clear the air.

We were.

And you were right.

It's never about what's on the surface.

It's about what's underneath.

Getting to the truth.

Did you find the truth?

I think so.

When we were in that mine and it felt like it could be the end.

All I wanted to do was tell him how I felt about him.

How much I care about him.

How much...

How much you love him.

Everything suddenly became so clear.

It was like I could hear my heart for the first time.

Oh, I almost forgot.

This arrived for you this morning.

It's from Charles.

Ned. Yes.

Has it arrived yet? Excuse me. Yes, it has. It is right here.

Oh, thanks.

I must say, this is very exciting.

If we could just keep it between you and I, I would appreciate that. Of course,

of course. Your secret is safe with me.

I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon at the club. Oh, me too.

Oh, Julie, darling, I do wish you had come along with us.

I noticed a lot of eligible young men there, and some of them were very

handsome.

And dull?

Oh, I'm sure if you would at least try, you'd find someone you like.

Oh, I'm quite sure I wouldn't.

Well, then, perhaps... Well, perhaps Viola and Lionel could introduce you to

some of their friends.

Would you please stop trying to run my life? Well, sweetheart, since the

beginning of time, young women of good breeding have married young men of good

breeding. And they've lived unhappily ever after.

Oh, that simply is not true.

Just because Tom's gone doesn't mean I've suddenly forgotten him. Maybe it's

time you should.

Or maybe, just maybe, I don't belong here.

Nobody cares what I think. Nobody cares how I feel. Oh, you know we care about

you. No, you don't. You don't. You only care about yourself and how things look

to other people. You're wrong about that.

Well, why do you think Elizabeth left?

This isn't about Elizabeth.

She wanted a life of her own, like I do, only she was brave enough to go out and

do something about it instead of staying here and suffocating.

Your sister will be coming back. Mark my words.

You know what?

I hope she doesn't.

I hope she stays away and marries Jack Thornton just to spite you.

How can you say that? Because you deserve it.

You don't have any respect for her feelings. You don't have any respect for

mine. Julie, listen to me. What if I don't listen?

Will you disinherit me? Because I don't care. I don't care about money or

position or society or any of it. I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.

The world is changing, Father.

And you better start changing with it.

Julie.

Julie.

Hello, Molly.

Oh, lovely flowers.

Oh, thank you.

They were a gift from Lee.

Mr. Calder, I must say you have excellent taste.

Ah, in flowers or women, then?

I think it's safe to say both.

Thank you.

Well, I have to be going.

Molly.

I hope there are no hard feelings.

About what?

Well, Lee.

I know you two are spending a lot of time together. Don't worry another

minute about it.

It's pretty clear that you two were meant for each other.

Thank you. You're very sweet.

I'm glad we can still be friends.

Me too.

Mr. Yost, I'm thinking of buying a Victrola.

May I look at those catalogs? Certainly.

I'll be right here.

Molly.

Thank you. I think it worked like a charm.

Well, I knew it would.

She's great. She just needed a little push.

Well, you played your part beautifully.

My pleasure.

Thank you.

That was the best fish I've ever had. What is your secret?

Beer.

Uh-huh.

My granddad's recipe.

I don't suppose you'd mind sharing it with me, would you?

Nope. I'm sworn to secrecy.

Well, then you'll just have to make it for me again.

If you catch more fish than me.

Oh, I don't think that should be a problem.

Speaking of secrecy, all I know about you is that your grandfather likes to

fish, and you're pretty good with a hammer.

Yeah, there's not much more to tell, really.

Oh, I don't know about that.

The last time we had dinner, you said you almost died.

Yeah, that's right.

What happened?

Well, I made a big mistake, and I paid dearly for it.

But that was a different life.

Do you mind me asking what kind of mistake?

Let's just say that I didn't always work on the right side of the law.

And the reason that I almost died was... I got shot.

Oh.

I see.

Anyway, I... I made a promise to God.

And... I said, God...

If you let me live, I will dedicate the rest of my life to doing your good work.

I'm sorry, Abigail. I know it's probably not what you want to hear. Oh, no. No,

Frank, it's, um... I shouldn't have pried.

I'm sorry.

No, that's okay.

I don't mind.

But I would appreciate it if we just... Keep this between us.

Other folks won't be so understanding.

Yes, of course. I will not speak a word of it, I promise.

I guess it's getting late.

I should probably get going.

I can take these plates for you. Oh, no, don't worry. I'll handle that.

Thanks, Emily.

I understand.

No, no one knows.

Well, that would be lovely.

Thank you very much.

Good morning, Jack.

Good morning, Rosemary.

Well, I suppose you've heard the news.

Lee and I are an item again. I think everyone in town has heard the news.

I hope Lee knows how lucky he is to have you.

I think he does.

And I believe there is one school teacher who's going to be very lucky to

have you.

Oh, come now.

You can't fool me.

I've seen the way you two look at each other ever since you got back from your

little adventure.

Oh, there is nothing more romantic than saving the life of a damsel in distress.

And to think, you owe it all to that silly little dog of yours.

There is no doubt.

Elizabeth is the one for you.

I never thought that I would hear you say that.

Well, then you don't know me as well as you think you do.

It was hard getting over you, Jack.

I loved you. I always will.

But I want you to be happy.

I really do.

Thank you for that, Rosie.

Just one thing.

Promise me that we'll always be friends.

That is a promise.

And a word of advice?

Don't keep her waiting.

I don't intend to.

Constable Fornan?

This just came for you. It's Mark Durgin.

Thanks, Ned.

Well, I'll leave you to your telegram.

Good luck, Jack.

I just got a telegram from headquarters.

They've ordered me to arrest you.

I can explain. Explain all this money and these counterfeit plates? You know I

was working undercover.

I also know that case was closed.

I don't have proof yet, but I have reason to believe somebody on the inside

is working with the counterfeiters.

You think one of our own is dirty? We've known each other a long time, Jack.

I wouldn't lie to you.

I'm gonna need your gun, Bill.

I'm taking the car into town.

Oh, will you be home in time for dinner? Don't wait for me. I haven't been in the

club. It might run late.

My name is Donna McHale.

It's Julie.

What's happened?

This was in her room.

She's run off, and she says she's never coming back.

Oh, dear God.

Elizabeth Thatcher, will you be my wife?

Would you... No.

Elizabeth. Will you?

I don't know.

Green one?

Blue one?

Nope. Green.

Yeah. Green one.

Here we go.

Excellent work, Miles.

I'm very proud of you. Thanks, Mrs. Thatcher. You're welcome.

Your spelling test will be on Thursday, and I expect all of your history reports

to be on my desk by tomorrow morning.

All right, class is dismissed.

Have a good day.

Elizabeth, will you marry me?
