Previously on When Calls the Heart If I am being completely honest, I have come

because my husband left me.

It's awful pretty and peaceful. We have ourselves a deal. Joseph, welcome to

Hope Valley.

Henry. No, I'm fine. Your blood pressure is dangerous.

You want more than I can give you. It would just hurt too much if I lost you

the way I lost Jack.

Elizabeth. Elizabeth, I love you.

Elizabeth!

Perfect.

So, what do you think?

They're called Freedomalls?

Faith brought them back from Chicago.

Clara wants to try selling them here. I thought I'd run them up the flagpole and

see who sleuths. I'm afraid that won't be me.

I expected as much.

But you know I need to be open to changing fashion.

And support Clara.

I can't run this dress shop forever.

Maybe someday she'll... Are you thinking of giving up the dress shop?

Let's not talk about me. Rosemary. No. Have you seen Nathan since you told him

the two of you couldn't be together?

No, and I hated writing off the way I did.

But who knows what would have happened between you two if you hadn't?

I know I made the right choice not to be with Nathan. But I don't know that I

made the choice to be with Lucas.

Have you seen Lucas since you spoke with Nathan?

No, and I'd like to keep it that way.

At least until after his mother tells him that his father left her.

That really is a terrible spot she put you in. Well, it's still confusing,

though.

Lucas has always spoken of his parents' marriage as if it were some fairy tale.

Lucas!

Good morning, lady.

Good morning.

Hi. What are all those?

More books for the library.

My mother mentioned you're getting together this morning.

Yes, and I should really be going. I have a few things to take care of

beforehand. Right.

Bye.

How is your mother?

She's not quite herself.

I'm thinking of telephoning my father, seeing if he would be willing to come

and visit her here.

That would be a surprise.

I think so.

Have a lovely day. You too.

Nathan, I need a sec.

I've been working on Allie's adoption, but between document requests and extra

paperwork of my own, it's going to be a few more weeks.

Well, whatever you can do to push it along, Bill.

And, uh, about my land, another buyer's been asking.

Oh, I, uh, I changed my mind. You're not interested anymore?

No, I'm not. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to really get on with my rounds.

Is that Andrew?

Yeah.

What do I call you, Judge Avery? Ah, Superintendent Hargraves. I heard you'd

been promoted. I learn from the best.

It's good to see you.

Nathan, I'd like you to meet... Yeah, we, uh, we know each other.

Superintendent. Constable Grant.

What brings you to Hope Valley?

Well, I have a matter to discuss with the constable here.

I see.

Well, hopefully we can catch up before you leave.

I'd like that.

This isn't pleasant news, so I won't delay in giving it to you.

No, I'm sure you won't.

It's about the shooting last year.

During the prisoner transfer.

There was an investigation.

Case is closed, sir.

But in light of the severity of the incident and the loss of a Mountie's

life, we are opening another internal inquiry.

May I ask the reason why, sir?

The inquiry is set to begin in the next few days, here in Hope Valley.

You're calling me as a witness?

Constable, you are the focus of this inquiry.

To determine your possible culpability as to whether or not you were at fault.

Your career as a Mountie is at stake.

What's happening out there?

Is that the beehive you bought Ned Frey's birthday?

Where are you?

Unfortunately, no, it's not.

There's some kind of delay with my order.

I thought I'd take a cue from you and buy Bill something for his birthday.

What do you suggest?

Molly, how should I know?

Seems he has everything a man could want.

Doesn't have a wife.

Kidding.

Seriously, kidding.

Excuse me.

Okay. Young man, if you would be so kind.

Carson's got me in his back brace. I can't do anything.

So, is it something for the mill? No, actually, this is something we brought

home from our trip to South America.

Let me guess. No, you're not going to guess. Oh, I don't know. I'm pretty good

at this. Ned, you are never going to guess.

Is it a... A chair?

I wanted to guess.

You shipped.

A chair.

This chair.

Halfway around the world?

Well, it's not exactly halfway around the world.

And I'll have you know, this isn't just any old chair.

I mean, look at the patina of the wood, the lines, the top rail, the splats. Its

form follows its function. This is a beautiful chair.

Looks like any old chair to me.

Hey, whoa, ow!

What?

This bad luck.

What? The person for whom the chair was made must be the first person to sit in

said chair. That's me.

You're serious?

Yeah, I'm serious.

All right.

So, um, I need you to take this to my house for me, and when you're there,

maybe move the motorcycle to the mill.

I promised Rosemary I'd do it, but with this back brace, it's not gonna happen.

Can I sit on that?

Very funny.

Come on, don't make me laugh. It hurts. Go.

See ya. Yeah.

You ever want to shave it off? I know just the gal to do it.

Only just to see what's hiding underneath.

It had gotten a bit full.

You have a customer.

Business is picked up. Shave it all off?

Well, I'd be curious to see. That's what I said.

You can always grow it back.

Let me think about it.

Can you stay in chat for a moment? I'm meeting Carson.

Thank you.

Uh, Lucas, this is too much. No, no, please, please, Fiona. I insist.

Besides, after I meet Lee about a lumber order, I might need a free haircut.

He is so nice.

If you could, I'd like to put a rush on this order.

Every day that we wait is a day we're not drilling. Yeah, absolutely.

We could deliver the lumber by end of the week. That sounds good.

Lucas.

Hi, Lee. Hey, Michael.

The men on two need to talk.

This well has been nothing but trouble since Henry suggested we start drilling.

Everybody thinks we should drill down another 50 feet.

And I agree.

50 feet becomes 100 feet becomes 300 feet.

How'd you like to buy an oil well?

I don't think so.

Good luck, Bella.

Fiona said she didn't think Hope Valley was ready for those.

Change is difficult for some people.

Oh, my goodness. Look at what Dottie sent over from Union City.

There's some beat work. Oh, it's beautiful.

I suppose she wants us to put this in the window.

Jesse Flynn, you have a wife to consider. You get off that motorcycle

right now before you risk leaving a widow. This is exactly why I wanted Lee

to sell that thing. Is that why he's having me ride this down to the mill?

You know, Lee always said that you love riding on the back of a motorcycle.

That was a long time ago, Jesse. I am a married woman now, and Lee is a married

man. If I never see that motorcycle again, it'll be too soon.

I think someone's interested in the free months.

You tell Lee to sell that bike to the very first person who comes along.

Okay. Jesse?

Okay.

If I'm not mistaken, it is in the third chapter.

Why don't I rewrite your manuscript while you relax?

I haven't been very focused, I'm sorry.

You have the gift of understatement.

May I ask what has you so troubled?

I assume you haven't told Lucas that your husband left you.

Not yet.

He's going to find out eventually.

Are you insinuating that if I don't tell Lucas, you will?

That's not what I meant.

Shall we get back to work?

May I open the window?

Yes. Yes, go ahead.

Lucas tells me Constable Grant is a suitor.

Is that what Lucas tells you?

I asked. He confirmed.

Constable Grant is not a suitor.

And yet you clearly regard him with some sort of sentiment.

Elizabeth, from your writing and from the short time I have known you, I am

aware that you feel things deeply.

You must have some idea of your affections for Constable Grant.

And my son?

As you suggested, shall we get back to work?

Ned?

Oh, Henry. I didn't see you come in.

I wanted to apologize.

Before, I was upset and accusatory.

And I know better than to think you'd open my mail. It's long forgotten.

Thank you, Henry.

Let me see if you have any mail.

Thank you.

You were right to be angry with me.

I hope that we can get by this.

Thank you, Henry.

I hope so, too.

No, uh, nothing today.

Thank you, Ned.

Good afternoon, Florence.

Oh.

I was the one he was accusatory towards. But I befriended you.

Yes, you did.

What are you doing back here?

Huh?

Jesse, I'm busy.

I just want to know what you think about it. No.

What's that supposed to mean? It means I know where this discussion is going, and

I do not want you buying Lee's motorcycle. That thing is dangerous. Why

not? It'll be able to go around so much faster, and it'll save us money.

How is that?

Because we won't have to buy a car.

Who said we're buying a car?

Clara?

Can we talk? Talk about this later. But Clara, what if someone else buys it

first, though? There will be other motorcycles.

I have to get back to work.

This

can't

be right.

I tried telling you that earlier.

The Mounties have the right to.

hold an inquiry any time they want, though they rarely do. So we... It's

just some sort of formality.

Andrew's a good Mountie. He's a stickler when it comes to detail.

That's one way of putting it.

Why don't you two get along?

We've crossed paths before.

You care to elaborate?

No.

If this well doesn't come in soon, I think it's time to call it a day.

Like you said, it's always been trouble.

No, I mean, I'm considering shutting down the entire operation.

Is that normal?

No. Get out of there!

Come on, get out!

I came from down at the Derricks. I'll meet you. And make sure everyone stays

here. Yeah.

Bill? We think there's been an explosion down at the Derricks. I'll prepare for

any casualties.

Jake? I'll be right there.

I want to stay in fire. I need to find Molly.

Lee had an appointment with Lucas.

Sweetheart. Sweetheart.

Lee.

Lee.

I'm going to head back down there, okay?

No, Lee. Lee, you're injured. What if somebody needs help? Lee! Lee! We can

help. No, no, it's too dangerous. If we need help, we'll call for more men.

I have to know about Lucas. Helen, Helen, it's too dangerous.

I'll wait here with you.

I'm sure someone will send word.

I'm sure he's fine.

Come on, Lucas.

Don't worry about me. See if everyone's okay.

Are you alright?

Yeah. The spark must have ignited the oil.

Lucas, how do we put this fire out?

I don't know.

You gotta get your men out of here.

Guys! Guys, clear out!

Lucas! I'm fine.

Mike needs help.

I don't care.

Lucas. Henry.

What are we gonna do?

You need dynamite.

A lot of it.

Here, grab some of these.

Come on, hurry, hurry.

Let's go.

What can I do? Take these.

Almost there.

Flashing the dynamite momentarily to please the fire oxygen.

Extinguishing flame.

Release that. Yeah, that'll work.

Yes, that'll work too. Can you carry that in front of us? Yeah, of course.

I need some more men to help push this car towards the fire.

I'm in. Me too.

We need at least one more.

Does it have to be a man?

Now, you and Jesse need to hold that up to protect us from the heat. How close

do we need to get? As close as we can.

How can I have much time to get back before the dynamite explodes?

Right, but how close do we need to get? As close as we can, and then when you

get there, run!

Right, but how close do we need to get? Everybody ready?

All set.

Hey, hey!

Keep pushing!

Push! Get back!

Get back!

Everybody back!

Mother's inside.

That's who I'm coming to find, but I'm glad I ran into you.

Would you have a moment? Yeah, I'm just going over to Mercantile. Talk to your

mother. I'll meet you after. I'll just be a minute. Yeah.

Honestly, I don't think I ever have run that fast.

Look who's dining with us.

Gustav mentioned you might be here.

Enjoy your breakfast.

Nice chatting with you, Bill.

Are you still angry with me?

It was my responsibility to jump in and help put out that fire. You are all I

have left. You are being dramatic.

I'm sorry.

I love you, too.

I need to speak with Henry Gao.

Let's hit lunch.

At the saloon?

Yes.

I tried telephoning Father.

Do you have any idea where he might be?

No.

Why don't I give him a try?

Are you sure that you wouldn't want to... Lucas, you are not sending me on

vacation.

I was doing my job.

If you change your mind.

Thank you.

Bill, that'll be my second.

These are blueberry.

And like the first, they're free.

There you are.

Is something wrong?

No, no.

Thank you, Ned.

Would you stop being so stubborn? I appreciate your concern.

Let me help you to the infirmary. Florence, really, I'm fine. Anyone can

see that you're not.

At least let me help you with these boxes.

I don't know why you're being so stiff-necked.

There's no doubt you have done more than just twist your ankle.

And I have heard from so many how gallant you were yesterday.

I appreciate you waiting.

No, no trouble.

I just want to say thank you again for yesterday.

Well, I'm just glad that nobody got hurt.

Henry, while I can't see my way to agree to all your terms, I would like you to

come back to me.

I will think about it.

You were eager just a few weeks ago.

Yeah, I'll think about it.

Well, how was it?

The chair?

Yes. I haven't sat in it yet.

You're going to be late for work. I know. I just need one minute.

Ow.

That's it.

That's it. What do you think? How about there?

It's a fine spot.

Yeah. So were the last 15 places you tried it.

Rosie, the perfect chair... Deserves the perfect spot.

Yes, you've mentioned that.

Now sit down.

No! I'm not going to sit down until I get this silly back razor. It has to

feel right. And you won't either because... Bad luck.

I've got it.

Oh,

for goodness sakes. Lee Coulter. No, no. I just realized that where it was, the

sun was going to be directly in my eyes when I was reading the newspaper.

Do you want me to drive you to work?

No. Carson wants me to walk. He says it's good for my back. But thank you for

the offer. Mm-hmm.

Just... That's it. Perfect. This is the spot. I know it. Are you sure?

Yeah.

Absolutely. Gotta go.

Love you.

A lot of fun, isn't it? Oh, more than a barrel full of monkeys.

What? Oh, sorry.

I want to buy it off you.

Oh, really?

Yeah. And what does Clara think about that?

She loves seeing me happy.

Ah.

Well, I'm glad you two have ironed things out.

Yeah. So, uh, what do you say? How much? Oh, you know how much. Well, I know how

much, but how much for me?

Okay,

I'll give you five bucks off. Yes. Deal?

Okay, I'll get the money. No, no, no, that's fine. You're good for it. You can

pay me later.

You are the best boss ever!

Be safe!

Hmm.

Do you remember what happened?

I must have stepped in a hole.

When he and the others were charging their raging inferno.

I heard.

Thank you, Ned.

Ned Yost.

One of the town heroes.

That's what we were just saying.

You do have some swelling, which indicates a mild lateral sprain. The

best thing will be for you to stay off your foot for a week. A week? No, I

can't possibly.

We can get you some crutches.

What did you do to yourself, Ned?

He twisted his ankle.

I stepped in a hole.

Ned, do you happen to remember if your foot turned inwards like this?

The other way.

Oh, like this way.

That's it.

See what the lateral sprain did.

Foot turns inward, but with a high ankle sprain, it turns outward like that. Yes,

but if you feel the tendon... Faith's going to go ahead and wrap you up nice

and tight, and you'll be back to your heroic antics right away.

Thank you, Doctor. You're welcome.

Shoo! That's right, shoo!

And what are you two up to?

Well, we are just learning the word shoe, and then we are going into town,

and then, and this is the best part, we are starting a garden in the backyard.

Oh, well, do you want me to watch Jack while you head into town? I'd love to do

a little gardening.

You don't mind? I just need to talk to Bill.

Oh, no, not at all. Let's see. We can plant some carrots and peas.

We might even plant some radishes.

Carrots. All right.

Save some for Mommy.

I won't be long. Oh, take your time. But if we're not here when you get home, we

may have just gone up the beanstalk.

Now, before we get started... There you go.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, don't touch Uncle Lee's chair. That's his brand-new

chair. We don't want to get it dirty, all right?

There you go.

Well, that is comfortable.

Well, all I should tell you is that one of the superintendents, an old friend of

mine actually, gave Nathan some bad news.

Bill, please.

The Mounties are investigating last autumn's prisoner transfer shooting.

Wasn't that already completed?

It's... It's an inside investigation. The Mounties always try to better

perform their duties.

Well, is this about enhancing the ranks, or is there more to it than that?

Bill, I want to know.

This is all highly unusual.

Why there's even an inquiry, I have no idea, but I can promise you I'll keep

digging till I find out.

Why didn't you tell me?

You knew my father left my mother, yet you didn't think you should tell me in

case I might have helped. Your mother confided in me. She specifically asked

me not to tell you, Lucas. I wanted to respect her request.

This isn't my fault.

I need your advice.

It seems Jesse asked for the day off. Why?

So he can ride his new motorcycle to Elber Falls even though I asked him not

to buy it. Maybe you can help.

It's as if I'm back in Chicago being ignored alongside all the other interns.

I just never would have expected this from Carson.

Am I interrupting?

It seems like you're more upset.

No. What's going on with you?

Jesse's behaving as though anything I have to say about the decisions in our

marriage is unimportant. Carson is treating me the exact same way when it

comes to working alongside him as a doctor.

I have chocolate cake at the cafe.

Let's go.

Save me a slice!

Say something.

Please?

Lee, I am so sorry. And I know apologizing won't put your chair back

together, but I honestly, I was just trying to see why you love it so much.

And you were right.

It is.

was the most comfortable chair I have ever sat in for that

brief, brief moment.

Can you please tell me why this chair means so much to you?

It's all right.

Normally you let things roll off like water off a duck.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

For what?

I guess I... I guess I should have said something.

My grandfather used to own a woodworking shop.

And he could build anything.

Chairs, tables, cabinets, you name it. And I always got to help him.

And one time when I was... I don't know, I must have been 12, we built a chair

together. He was very patient with me and helped me through every step.

And that chair that we built looked a lot like, well, what this one used to

look like. Yes.

He made things that people used and enjoyed.

He'd come up with an idea in his mind and he'd build it with his own two

hands. I don't make anything, Rosie.

Nothing. I just sell the wood other people use to make stuff.

I don't know.

I hear I missed quite the event. Oh, the fire.

Not something people around here want to repeat.

I hope you'll overlook that I let myself in.

What brings you back early?

I need to finalize arrangements.

This is a large office.

I wonder if you'd allow us to use it.

For your inquiry.

Andrew, given that we have a history, tell me.

Because this inquiry isn't adding up.

Now, I was ten feet from Nathan when the gunshot happened.

And I promise, as I've stated on the record, it was done by the book.

So tell me, what's this all about?

A Mountie died. I think that warrants a review.

Couldn't help but notice that you and Nathan aren't all that close.

We've crossed paths.

That's funny. That's how he put it. Bill, I wouldn't have achieved my rank

if it weren't for you.

You're a good mentor.

I trust you'll see your counsel wasn't wasted.

What appears to be holding a grudge.

You didn't learn that from me.

May the Royal Northwest Mounties count on the use of your office?

It may.

Much appreciated.

This should go without saying, but since you were present during the shooting,

you will be called in as a witness.

Who is that?

Mountie?

Elizabeth?

Please come in.

Please have a seat.

Hello.

What is it you have there?

Looks like a Mountie.

A friend made that for Jack.

Hmm. A Mountie.

Constable Grant?

A Mountie. My late husband.

Yes. I believe Lucas mentioned.

I've found nothing so difficult in life as being a mother.

I think it's because I never discovered what seems to come so naturally to you.

The joy of it.

I have moments where I can't recognize the joy in anything.

But that's when I find it most important to surround myself with people who love

me.

They help.

Helen, why are you here?

I regret putting you in a position of having to maintain my confidence about

Lucas's father.

Thank you.

You should have said so earlier, in a forthright manner, but in the way that

you know only how to be honest.

I don't know how to be any other way than this.

Being vulnerable to be exactly who you are, it's understandable you'd be

afraid.

But you are an intelligent, thoughtful woman.

Do you show that side of yourself to your husband?

No.

Not for a very long time.

Why?

What's stopping you?

If your husband doesn't love you for exactly who you are, then that isn't

love.

And perhaps he doesn't deserve you.

But if you are unsure whether you've shown each other your true hearts, then

you may want to try again.

Love needs to be nurtured and cared for.

True love is always worth fighting for.

It never gives up.

But you may need to be the one to reach out first.

And hope.

Go on.

He's not gonna bite.

Thank you.

For being my friend.

My pleasure.

We need to talk.

Oh, why don't I give you two... No, Molly.

We all work together. This includes you.

Okay. You ordered me to wrap Ned's ankle without listening to what I had to say

about it.

Molly, I'm sorry. I think it's best if you give us some privacy.

Of course.

Faith. I'm not finished.

You are Dr. Carson Shepard. Well, I'm Faith Carson. I think you're reading

into things. Carson, you have no idea what I went through in Chicago. So tell

me. I want to hear it. I went through exactly this.

Being told to speak up but not being heard because I was constantly being

interrupted. I don't know what it is exactly that you went through, but you

and I are in no shape to be discussing this right now.

Please.

We need to find our way through this. I don't know what this is.

Just tell me what you want.

You say that you value me as a doctor. Yes.

You say that I'm gifted.

But I don't just wanna hear it.

I wanna be treated like you mean it.

What is all this?

Ta-da!

It's your new workshop.

Obviously, it needs a roof and some walls and perhaps a door, but I thought

you could make those yourself.

You turned your special place that I created for you into my special place.

I want you to build and build until your heart's content.

Well, it's spectacular.

I don't know what to say.

Only I'm not sure I remember how to build anything.

Oh.

He'll come back to you.

I love you.

You're amazing.

Thank you for always building me up.

Oh. See what you did there? You made a little play on words. I did.

Now, how about you make me a spice rack?

Maybe I am responsible.

I was there. I saw what happened. You are not responsible. Maybe I should have

let the prisoner go. I... I don't know. Now you're talking in hindsight, like

you're throwing in the towel.

You're sure Hargraves doesn't have an axe to grind with you?

Yeah.

Why don't I believe you?

Stay out of any more explosions.

I'll do my best.

Lucas.

My mother was determined to catch the last stage off.

She apologizes for having to leave in such a rush, and she promises to get in

touch soon regarding your manuscript.

Family's never been very gracious about goodbyes.

She heading to San Francisco?

Home.

Something's happened.

Maybe she spoke with my father.

I don't know.

She says that she would like to reconcile with him.

Wait.

Elizabeth, what upset me about not knowing my parents had separated wasn't

just that you didn't tell me.

It was that I thought that they loved each other.

Perhaps they did at a time.

I don't know. Lucas, perhaps they still do.

How do you lose that?

I can only tell you what I told your mother.

Love has to be fought for.

And maybe she needed to be the one to reach out first.

What would you know about it?

That was cruel.
