Previously, on "Heartland"... [horse whinnying]

Hey, you're okay.

Good boy.

This is my trailer.

I'm moving back in.

Not likely, cowboy Bob.

I got nowhere to stay but in my truck.

You can bunk in the loft.

Really?

I want to do whatever it takes to get him out of my loft.

We could set him up with Ashley.

With or without Ashley, he's going back to that trailer.

Val, I wanted to talk to you.

I've reconsidered, and I think I'd

like to sell you the property.

Okay. I'll think about it.

What?

It may not make economic sense for me at this time.

You are not going to believe this.

[Mallory] It's already had almost 3,000 hits.

Miracle-Gro?

You're famous.

Just-- I have a zillion new e-mails.

I don't know how I'm going to do this.

[gentle music]

Good boy.

Good boy.

Hey.

Hey, how's it going?

Great.

It's awesome what he can do once you freed up his head.

Could use 50 more minutes, though.

You don't got it.

Okay, who's next?

Come on!

What's wrong with this guy?

That's Roxy.

He's barn sour.

If it was up to him, he'd never come out of his stall.

If it were up to me, he'd hang out in there all day.

Well, just leave him.

I'll take care of it.

You come walk this guy up.

Talked to Soraya.

It's all good.

It better be.

I mean, I could put up with the snoring and his dirty clothes

all over the place.

But his brokenhearted cowboy routine, night after night,

I can't stand it.

Wow.

I never knew you had such a cold, cold heart.

Well, neither did I, until--

[Caleb] Hey!

Where is everybody?

I'd better get out of here.

Yeah, okay.

[smooching]

Where's he going?

Round up the other horses.

I thought I was a horse rounding-up guy.

Yeah, well, today you're the going into town guy.

Grandpa's got to do a supply run at Maggie's.

Here, Mallory.

Is Ash working today?

How should I know?

Barn sour, huh?

Once they're settled in, that's just about that.

That's funny coming from someone who moved into the barn

on a strictly temporary basis and has ignored

all hints about cramping people's style

and taking up a lot of space.

Not to mention hogging my favorite frozen bagels.

Those were frozen?

I figure I can pick up a few fence panels

and tack up a couple of pens behind the barn.

Things keep up this way, I might need a whole new barn,

too.

Tell that to your father, the way he's throwing

money around these days.

Grandpa.

Well, it starts with that herd of cows.

Now that fancy new phone he got for Amy.

Why not? I mean, look.

You know, you lent him the money.

You can't really tell him how to spend it.

Yeah, I've heard it all before, one too many times.

Morning, Jack.

Yeah, fine, thanks.

[car door slamming]

[engine starting]

Hey, Jack!

[Lou sighing]

What's with him?

Not really a morning person.

So, [clearing throat] this one was hit by a car.

That one was freaked out by a lightning strike.

And this one is-- [horse whinnying]

[Tim exclaiming]

Mouthy.

Thanks for the warning.

And we are so crowded I'm keeping

horses in the jumping ring.

I mean, it's like everyone who saw that YouTube video

hit on the exact same solution.

Amy.

You've got to seize this moment.

Well, that's what we're trying to do, Dad.

I mean, so far Amy can manage all these horses.

But the problem is I can't keep up with all

these out-of-towners who want to book places at the dude ranch,

so--

Honey, expansion. Expansion.

That's what I'm talking about.

Right.

Look--

Excuse me.

Hi, I'm Kate.

And this is my daughter, Taylor.

We're looking for Amy Fleming.

[Lou] Kate Kennedy?

Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry, you didn't get my email.

I got it.

And I realize this is kind of a long shot.

I just didn't think that we could

wait six weeks for an opening.

Uh, you know, I'm sorry.

We're totally booked up right now.

See, Mom?

I told you it was stupid for us to come.

It's been a very long drive.

If Amy could just take a look at Taylor's horse, then I--

Uh--

You know, I--

I'm-- I'm sure that Amy be happy to do that.

I'm Tim Fleming.

I'm Amy's dad.

Hi.

This is my daughter, Lou Fleming.

Hi.

[Kate] Hi.

[kate sighing in relief]

[gentle music]

Hey, you got Roxy out of the barn.

Better yet, I got Caleb to go with Grandpa.

[ty chuckling]

[Amy laughing]

And Ashley's on the breakfast shift?

They'll at least have to talk, right?

I never knew you were such a sneaky little--

There's lots of things you don't know about me.

[both chuckling]

[phone chiming]

[Amy sighing]

Who is it?

Lou.

We've got to get back.

Talk about timing, huh?

It's like she knows.

[Amy chuckling]

[gentle music]

I'm kind of booked up today.

Can you maybe have them come back another time?

Yeah, obviously I tried.

But dad had other ideas. Uh, Kate?

Amy Fleming.

I know, I sound like such a fan.

I just can't believe I'm meeting you in person.

I swear, she must have seen that video like a thousand times

when she first got out of the hospital.

There was an accident.

Her horse, Trooper.

He's always been so perfect, and then one day he just bolted,

and--

I'm not so sure that's such a good idea.

Aw, he seems fine.

[horse snorting]

Whoa, whoa!

[dramatic music]

Taylor!

Come here.

[Taylor] I'm okay Mom. [Kate] It's okay.

You're safe.

[Taylor] Okay.

[gentle music]

[Amy] Well, he seems pretty calm now.

[Amy sighing]

[latch clanging]

Don't worry.

I've got the gate.

Hey, boy.

[chuckling]

So far, so good.

Good boy.

Yeah.

Hello. [clicking tongue]

Come on.

[[clicking tongue]

Good boy.

[clicking tongue]

Come on.

Hup.

[gentle music]

Good boy.

He seems like a pretty well-broke horse.

What about the way he lunged at that little girl?

You ever seen that before?

I don't know.

Only with abused horses.

By a 10-year-old?

Never underestimate the 10-year-old girl.

I have nightmares about those parties in grade five.

Well, maybe you could do me a favor, Mallory.

Get to know the girl who owns this horse.

Find out what she's like, what her relationship with Trooper

is.

What do you mean, like a friend?

Or a spy?

How about just someone who's trying to help?

Hmm?

Her name's Taylor.

[hinges creaking]

[Lou] All right.

Oh, this is wonderful, Lou.

I'm so glad you could squeeze us in.

Oh, you know, what's a couple of days, right?

I told the next guests we had an overflow problem.

They thought I was talking about the outhouse.

[chuckling]

If our lives didn't suck so thoroughly right now,

this would be like a dream vacation.

[Lou sighing]

[gentle music]

My daughter has just been going through a lot lately.

[gentle music]

Hey.

I saw Amy riding your horse today.

She said he was amazing.

Amy said that?

Yeah, and she would know.

Uh, so, is that your horse?

Sort of.

He's half my horse.

His name's Copper.

He has his own Facebook page.

- Wow. - All my friends do it.

It's sort of just us, though, but, we take our horses' names.

Why don't I add you as a friend?

And I can hook you up with all my friends.

I could hook you up with my horse friends, too.

Um, but I'm not sure if I'm still

going to even have a horse.

I mean, I think he really hates me.

No way.

We were just like normal.

And then he went totally berserk and ran like a maniac

until I couldn't stay on anymore.

Did you hurt yourself?

Are you kidding?

I was in the hospital, like, forever.

Well, don't worry.

Amy can fix any horse.

It's like she knows what they're thinking.

Um, like a mind reader?

Do you think maybe she knows what I'm thinking, too?

[gentle music]

Hey, uh, you, uh, feel like having a coffee?

No.

Then go get me one.

Just can't get a break.

How you doing, Val?

Oh, [chuckling] you know.

I just want to make sure that you understand,

if Tim sells you that piece of land,

I'm glad to have you as a neighbor.

On both sides.

Well.

Never thought I'd hear that coming out of your lips, Jack.

I don't think you've been talking to Tim, though.

In this economy it doesn't make sense to develop acreages.

- So you're not buying? - No.

Nobody is buying.

But surely you're not worried about anything, are you?

I hear Heartland's business is booming.

[Jack chuckling]

Yeah.

This isn't a business issue now.

It's an ex-son-in-law issue.

Right.

[country music playing]

Look who's sitting in your section.

Can't you take it?

I'm on break.

Just one coffee to go.

Please.

[country music playing]

[water pouring]

[Caleb exclaiming]

You know, I think you missed the glass.

And I think you missed the point.

And I think you're insane if you

think a little bit of cold water is going to get rid of me.

Oh, I'm not trying to get rid of you.

I just want to remind you what a cold shower feels like.

You know, when the water heater is broken

and no one bothers to fix it.

Oh, jeez.

Uh.

How's Coffee coming?

Coming right up, Jack.

You know, it's my damn trailer.

And she's just living there rent-free.

And I'm supposed to feel guilty because little miss princess

doesn't have any hot water.

Yeah, but you know Ashley, man.

You got to keep talking to her if you want any sort

of relationship with her. Relationship?

There is no relationship.

I just want my damn trailer back.

She's trying to make a point, man.

Yeah? And what would that point be?

Because apparently I just keep missing it.

The point is you're a jerk. You lied to her.

You took her mom's money.

And now you won't even fix her hot water heater.

So keep it up man.

You're never going to get your trailer back.

[gentle music]

Set another place.

Dad has invited himself for dinner.

Now I'm feeding him, too?

He says he's got big plans on how to expand the dude ranch.

Problem is, dad's plans always end up

costing more than I can afford.

Yeah, well, more than he can afford, too, considering.

Grandpa, you've got to promise me.

No matter what he says--

I'm staying out of it.

Okay.

Motor homes.

Motor homes.

Motor homes?

Yeah.

To solve Lou's accommodation problem.

Dad, you mean, like, trailers?

Nothing like trailers to solve an accommodation problem.

I talked to the guy at a dealership, right?

Their sales are down.

They're overstocked.

We'd be doing him a favor taking these.

Now, it's not a perfect solution,

but who knows how big this thing can get?

You can do books, DVDs, clinics.

There are a million different ways

to make money off this horse whispering thing.

Dad, please don't call it that.

It makes me feel weird.

But I'm just saying.

Some strategically placed motor homes around the lake

would triple your revenue, Lou.

The Old man wants to turn his own ranch into a suburb.

It doesn't surprise me that he wants to turn

my ranch into a trailer park.

But I'm not getting involved.

That's too bad, Jack.

Because you know how I value your opinion.

Excuse me, everyone.

I'm sorry, Lou, but has anyone seen Taylor?

[mysterious music]

[horse snorting]

[horse whinnying]

[suspenseful music]

[horse snorting, whinnying]

Taylor!

Taylor, I just don't want you to get hurt by that horse again.

Oh, Mom!

I'm not stupid, Mom!

I remember what happened.

But I miss him so much.

He's my best friend.

I just wanted to be near him.

Come here.

Oh, baby.

Trust me, she's nobody's baby.

[tender music]

[gentle music]

[knocking]

What do you want?

[gentle music]

[Nikki barking]

What?

[Nikki barking]

Hey, girl.

Aren't you done yet?

You know, I just started, and--

I'd really like to make sure that this is tight.

Well, could you hurry it up?

I'd like you to be gone before I leave for school.

[Caleb sighing]

You know, uh, when I'm done I could take a look at the roof,

maybe do something about the window screens.

Uh, yeah, whatever.

Just put Nikki back inside and lock up before you go.

[Nikki barking]

Bye, girl.

[Taylor] What do you mean you're going to school?

[Amy] It's a school day.

[Taylor] Yeah, so what am I supposed to do?

Watch your horse.

Watch him do what?

Eat, sleep, drink, whatever he does, okay?

Here, take notes.

Draw pictures.

I Expect a full report when I get back.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Do you keep Trooper in a boarding stable?

Yeah, like everybody does.

Yeah?

So your mom drives you out there.

Someone's already caught your horse, tacked them up.

You just take a lesson for, what, an hour?

And then give him a kiss and go home?

Sort of, yeah.

So what?

So if you really want to be best friends with your horse,

you're going to have to get to know him.

Spend some time with him, know what he likes, what he doesn't.

Okay? [Taylor sighing]

Okay.

Good.

You know Ty?

He's going to keep an eye on you guys today.

Bye.

[Taylor sighing]

[trooper snorting]

If this is about the motor homes, I don't have time.

Well, you can take those motor homes

and you know where you can park them.

And I talked to Val Stanton.

Now, why didn't you tell me?

Tell you what?

She changed her mind.

She lost her nerve.

Look, that woman is not the only game in town, Jack.

Lots of fish in the sea.

I've got lots of irons in the fire.

Fire?

There are no fires.

Do you ever pay attention to anything, at all?

Nobody's selling because nobody's buying.

Oh, this isn't about the loan now.

Now I'm responsible for the whole bad economy.

Well, it's going to get better in a couple of years, Jack.

Well maybe you want to watch and wait a couple of years.

Well, that's what Lou and I were talking about.

Well, then start talking about something else

because nobody's putting motor homes on my land.

What happened to you not being so involved?

I'm working on it.

Sure as hell not making it easy for me.

[gentle music]

That's not bad.

You learn anything about your horse yet?

You kno know this isn't actually

about me watching my horse.

It's about my horse getting used to me.

You know, for a 10-year-old you're pretty smart.

If I'm so smart, why am I sitting here?

Yeah, well, just make sure you are smart enough to stay

on this side of the stall.

And I'm going to have to reschedule

you for next Tuesday.

Yes.

Yes, I understand rearing is a serious issue.

I'm sure little Trigger is a lovely horse.

Look, we-- why don't you let me see what I can do

and I'll call you back.

Thanks okay.

[phone beeps] Hi.

You know, Amy thinks there's nothing

wrong with Taylor's horse. [phone ringing]

Why doesn't she tell me that so I can

stop juggling all the bookings? [phone ringing]

You want me to get that?

No, just let it go to message. [phone ringing]

All I'm saying is that it might not be the horse,

but that little girl. What?

[phone ringing]

[Taylor] You lied to me!

I hate you, and Dad hates you, too.

[Kate] Taylor.

[Taylor] That's why he's not coming.

[Kate] You know your father's working.

[Taylor] He'd come if you let him!

[Kate] It's not a good time right now.

Okay?

Look, Mommy and Daddy both need to give

each other a little space, to work things out.

Okay?

Come on.

[Taylor] I want to go home!

[gentle music]

I'm not sure what these guys need is a horse whisperer.

[gentle music]

To tell you the truth, I was getting sick of taking

my shower at school.

Well, see?

He's not all that bad.

Yeah, right.

Come on, maybe Caleb deserve a break.

I mean, you guys were really good friends before, you know,

the whole mom thing. Okay, shut up, both of you.

I know what you're doing here.

Hello, your boyfriend's loft?

Okay, Ash, that's not what this is about.

Yeah, I mean, we are your friends.

Then why don't you start acting like it?

If you're really my friends, then why are you trying

to use me to get rid of Caleb?

Especially if he's such a great guy.

[knocking]

Hey.

Kate.

I was, uh--

I was just going to call you.

This isn't working.

I'm sorry, but this whole trip has just been a mistake.

Kate, Amy has just gotten started.

You know, she usually needs more time.

Yeah, you know what?

I just don't think that Amy understands the real issue.

We have a problem horse, and drawing pictures of it

isn't going to solve anything.

Well, um, you see, Kate, according to Amy,

there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with your horse.

The horse that almost killed my daughter?

All right, well, maybe if Amy had spent a month

by Taylor's bedside wondering if she

she's ever going to walk again.

Yes, of course.

Obviously something happened.

I'm not denying that.

But your horse seems okay.

Oh, so you think ity daughter?

I haven't spent a lot of time with her.

But she doesn't seem very happy.

Yeah.

Well, the only thing that will make her happy

is if her father and I get back together.

And that just doesn't seem very likely.

Oh.

I had no idea you were separated.

After the accident, when Taylor was in the hospital,

we were both just too worried about her

to remember that our relationship was falling apart.

And then we got home, and Taylor would start to feel better.

And two weeks later he walked out.

[somber music]

Did you know Hershey, Pennsylvania

is one of the top 10 most romantic

places in North America?

That's where they make those chocolate kisses.

I spent this whole study period in the computer lab.

Okay, well, what else did you learn?

Well, besides the fact that there are over 500 Taylor

Kennedys on Facebook, only one of which

has Trooper as a pre picture.

Yes, yes. Besides that.

Okay.

Well, she has 216 Facebook horsey friends.

And last fall she was Reserve Champion and Pony

Hunter at the Cedarton Fair.

Okay, what about her accident?

Well, there's nothing really about it.

But there is one picture with her mom and her dad,

and she's in a full body the hospital.

Do you want to know what the weird part is?

It's the only picture on her wall

where she actually seems happy.

Okay, so we're just going to walk calmly towards your horse.

This is exactly what my mom told me I can't do.

Well, you're with me.

I'm sure your mom will be fine with it.

Besides, you know Trooper isn't a bad horse.

I guess.

[gate clanking]

[Amy sighing]

[gentle music]

You know, something must have really

spooked him to make him run off with you the way he did.

I don't know.

I didn't do anything.

[gentle music]

[Amy sighing]

Horses are really sensitive.

And if you're scared, or angry, or upset,

then horses are scared and upset, too.

[gentle music]

People do that, too, you know.

They run away from things that hurt them.

Are you talking about me?

[gentle music]

I'm just saying that sometimes,

after a bad accident, a lot of people never get on a horse

again.

So are you sure this is something that you want to do?

I used to really love it.

I loved jumping and going to shows.

Yeah.

I want to do it again.

I want to ride Trooper.

Okay.

Come on, let's go get your horse.

Here, I think you know how to do this.

I do, but--

Don't worry.

I'm going to be right here.

Just be gentle.

[brushes rustling]

Is there anything you usually like to say to Trooper?

I don't really talk to him that much.

I talk to my horses endlessly.

I say all sorts of dumb things.

[chuckling]

We do have a special song.

I learned it at horse camp.

You know, you're not going to get very far before dark.

And your room is just going to be empty anyways.

You could stay the night, get an early start.

Thanks, but I think it's best if I get going.

Okay.

I'll, uh, print off your receipt and get Ty to load your horse.

[Taylor singing] No ride, no pain.

I'll lead no them.

Gone to Montana to throw the hand.

TAYLOR AND AMY SINGING They feed them in the coolies

they water in the draw.

Their tails are all matted, their backs are all raw ride

around ride around real slow.

Okay, so I'll just get you to take a look over this.

And, uh, don't worry.

I didn't charge you for the wine.

[Lou chuckles]

You know, I think you were right, Lou.

I think we should stay a few more days.

TAYLOR AND AMY SINGING Put it on my pony

and lead him from the stone.

I thought it was bad before.

But now he spent half the night talking about fixing

windows screens and whether you should

use plastic or metal mesh.

And how bolting them is better than screwing them.

Ty. Ty!

You can't let him do it, okay?

What? Why?

Because Ashley knows it's just about us

getting him out of the loft.

Yeah, and it's working!

Yes, but Ty, it can't come from us.

Okay?

Caleb has to figure this out on his own.

If we leave it up to him--

I mean, for all his talk he is clueless about girls.

[Amy sighing]

I know this sounds weird, but Ashley is my friend, okay?

And she made me feel really bad, like I was using her or--

All right.

I get it.

But I'm the one stuck living with him.

And his boots.

Come on, Ty.

We just have to stay out of it, okay?

Hey, Amy.

So, um, what are you doing today?

[dramatic music]

Yes Dad.

No, I realize we've got to do something about this.

Today?

Okay.

Yes I'll meet you there.

Yeah, I-- I promise.

Look, Dad, I've got to go.

Bye.

Grandpa, what is all this?

Fence panels for the new pens.

Okay, well I hope you can get them up fast, because I've got

three horses coming in today.

And where am I supposed to put them?

[Jack sighing]

What are you doing, Lou?

I thought you were on Amy's side.

How's she going to handle all these new horses?

You know what?

I don't know. I don't know.

I had the whole schedule worked out.

And then Dad came and screwed up.

And now Amy's spending way too much time

with this little girl.

And, you know, I'm getting all involved

with her mother and the problems with her marriage.

I don't know how anyone makes a relationship work.

Do you?

Because I don't.

And do you know when the last time PW called me was?

Have you tried calling him?

No.

I don't want to seem desperate.

Well, maybe if you call him, you won't be.

Kate.

Hey.

What are you doing?

I'm just expecting a fax.

I gave them your number.

I just, um-- my husband, he just filed for divorce.

Oh, Kate.

I'm so sorry.

I just got off the phone with my lawyer, so.

[kate chuckling]

I guess there's no sugarcoating it any longer.

Taylor doesn't know.

Well, I mean, I'm sure in some ways she does, you know.

I just have never used those words,

like separation and divorce.

They just sound so real.

[kate chuckling]

And I guess now I just, uh--

I guess now I don't have any choice.

I'll, um--

I'll let you know as soon as the fax comes in.

Okay.

[gentle music]

[Ty] Hey, man.

You, uh, remember what I was telling you about Ashley?

[Caleb chuckling]

Yes, I do.

Yeah, that whole handyman thing?

You should just forget about it, okay?

It was good advice.

I mean, we might only be talking about hot water,

but hey, at least we're talking.

Yeah, but the thing is, Ashley doesn't buy it.

She thinks that me and Amy were just jerking you around.

Why?

Because of you living here.

Sharing my place.

Oh, yeah.

Of course.

What are you talking about?

We were trying to get you to move out of my loft

and back into your trailer.

Sorry, man.

Wow, that's--

What am I supposed to do now?

Don't ask me, man.

Don't fix anything, okay?

Just let her be.

And you can stay in my loft as long as you want.

Okay?

Don't worry about it.

As long as you want.

[Caleb sighing heavily]

[mysterious music]

Oh, my God.

I knew when you saw her, she'd sell herself.

Yeah.

Dad, I don't know.

I mean, this place has a very specific look to it.

Logs, wood, rocks.

More of a nature thing than and RV thing.

Honey, it's a strike while the iron is hot situation.

This is the perfect solution.

Solution to what, Dad?

I mean, this place is never going to be

the Super Six Motel, you know?

Lou, you know I'm doing this for you girls, right?

I mean, why do you think I moved back here?

And the way things are going, I don't

know how long I can hang on.

[Lou clearing throat]

Okay.

I get it.

And I'll think about it.

I promise.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I can get a deal on six.

[playful music]

Six?

Look it.

Check it out, go ahead.

Wow.

[playful music]

You look pretty good on that horse.

Thanks.

That's what my instructor says, too.

Well, maybe we can go on a trail ride tomorrow.

Why not now?

Well, I'd really rather not overdo it.

Okay?

We'll just be careful and we'll take Trooper in

and Ty can give you a lift back.

Amy?

Amy! Oh!

Easy. Mallory, what?

I got a fax.

For Taylor's mom.

Okay, so give it to Taylor.

But I can't.

Then give it to Ty.

Fine, but this is the last time

I ever spy on anybody for you.

[somber music]

There you go.

Okay, thanks.

No problem.

This was the best day of my life.

Well, who knows?

Tomorrow might be even better.

You got it? Yep.

There you go. Oh, Taylor.

Yeah?

Before I forget, give that to your mom, okay?

Okay. ol.

- Okay. - Okay.

Thanks. Bye.

See you.

[phone ringing]

Hey, Ash.

[metal scraping]

[Jack] Hey!

Where do you think you're going?

We need your help here.

Ask Ty, Jack, he knows.

Took his advice, backed off, and now she's calling me.

You, sir, are a genius.

[playful music]

A genius.

Got some advice for you.

Pick up your end.

[playful music]

[Amy] Thanks for your help, Mallory.

Don't mention it.

Ever again.

All right, Miss Taylor, you can do up the girth.

Make sure it's nice and tight.

What's wrong?

You okay?

I guess I'm just kind of nervous.

I haven't been on the trail since--

Well, don't worry.

We'll just walk, okay?

If I can even get Roxy to leave the barn.

And you know, this isn't going to do

you any good if it falls off.

I know you mean well, Dad.

But even you've got to admit it makes this place look

like a parking lot at Walmart.

Oh, you don't have to sugarcoat it.

So I've got a better idea, if you would just listen.

We refinance the loan, and we build another cabin

or two just right over there.

Refinance? No.

Yes!

No, Lou, you've done a great job with the place.

And I don't want to be a problem.

Oh, come on, Dad, don't--

Lou, if you don't want to work with me anymore,

just buy me out.

What?

Lou?

Yeah?

About that fax?

Um, look, as far as I know it hasn't come in.

But I'll-- I'll call Amy and get her to check the fax machine,

Okay?

[engine starting]

Fax?

I gave it to Ty.

Yeah, Mallory gave it to Ty.

Okay.

I'll be right back.

Hey, Ty.

You know that fax?

I gave it to Taylor.

Taylor, no!

[suspenseful music]

Taylor!

[metal clattering]

I tried to stop her!

Come on, Roxy, let's go.

Come on, Roxy.

No, please, don't do this right now.

Come on, come on.

[suspenseful music]

[clicking tongue]

Come on, come on!

[suspenseful music]

I'm okay.

[suspenseful music]

Taylor, pull up!

Taylor!

Taylor, pull up!

[Taylor] I can't!

[Amy] Taylor!

Taylor!

[Taylor] I can't stop!

[Amy] Taylor, pull up!

There's a cliff!

[Taylor screaming]

[suspenseful music]

[Amy] Taylor!

You okay?

Taylor!

Where are you going?

Taylor!

op!

Taylor!

Taylor, what is your problem?

Huh?

[Taylor panting heavily]

Morning, Ash.

Glad you called.

Who else was I supposed to call?

What's wrong?

What do you think?

My damn car won't start.

I mean, it's been making all these funny noises.

I mean, I should have taken it in months ago.

But do you have any idea how much it

costs just to open up the hood?

And now I'm going to be late for work.

And Maggie told me if I'm late one more time she's

going to fire me, and I just--

Relax.

I'll give you a lift.

Who's going to be here for the tow truck?

[playful music]

You don't mean--

[playful music]

[Caleb sighing]

[gentle music]

You know what I think?

I think you did that on purpose.

No!

He just bolted like he did the last time.

You made him bolt, Taylor.

I saw the riding crop in the barn.

I didn't do anything!

It's your fault. You said you could fix him, but you didn't.

You know, maybe you're right.

And if I can't, then your mom's just going to have

to find a new home for Trooper.

No.

You can't tell my mom.

I didn't mean to hurt him.

So what exactly did you mean to do?

I don't know.

[Taylor sighing] They were fighting and yelling and--

I just wanted to go fast, to get away.

Are you talking about your accident?

When I was in the hospital, it was just like it used to be,

my mom and my dad.

They were together.

Until they got home.

And then my dad left.

So you wanted to hurt yourself again?

Like before?

They're getting a divorce!

I just wanted to stop them.

But I swear, I did not mean to hurt Trooper.

I tried to pull up, like you said.

But it was too late.

[somber music]

[gentle music]

You know, she did it deliberately, Grandpa.

Maybe not even just this time, but the other time,

too, when she thought her parents were going to split up.

That's how she ended up in the hospital?

Yeah.

I don't know.

Taylor begged me not to tell her mom.

But I really think she needs to know.

Well, it seems like that little girl does need help.

It goes way beyond help with her horse.

[Amy sighing]

Now, you did the best you could.

Her mom needs to know that right now that horse may

be the least of her problems.

Hmm?

[gentle music]

So what happened to being partners?

It's not working, Lou.

You know it and I know it.

Yeah, maybe so, Dad.

But I'm not going to buy you out.

[gentle music]

So what am I supposed to do?

Just default and walk away?

Yeah, Dad, sure.

I guess you could do that if we were just partners.

But we're not.

We're a family.

And maybe you're a little bit unclear

on how I feel about that.

[What Will Be by The Dunes playing]

Look, worse comes to worst, I'll carry the payments

for a couple months.

But one thing is for sure.

I am not going to let you walk out on this family ever again.

It is pretty ugly, huh?

Oh, God, it's awful.

[Lou chuckling]

Come here.

Hey, Mallory, I need a favor.

Okay.

Um, I didn't listen to you.

And?

And I really appreciate everything that you've done.

And?

And I am sorry that sometimes I take you for granted.

Enough.

Thank you.

I found this outside the barn.

You know, you should probably put a password on it.

Anyone with half a brain can figure out everything about you

in 15 seconds.

Great.

So what's the favor?

More spying?

Uh, I need to talk to Taylor's mom.

And Taylor cannot know.

Your secret's safe with me.

My head is up, my heart is warm.

Ready to weather another storm.

So close your eyes and think of me.

What will be they say will be.

Nikki!

You are such a good girl!

What's this?

Aw, no, come--

Oh.

Um, I was parking and, um, uh--

No worries.

Just paint.

[exhaling]

Only paint.

You know, since you fixed the water heater,

I've washed my hair about a dozen times.

And I even washed Nikki.

You mean my water heater.

Yeah.

Whatever.

You know, tomorrow, if you want, I could

give you a lift to school.

No thanks.

Well, I'll see you then.

Yeah.

See you.

Come on, Nikki.

I'm really sorry for what I did to you.

[trooper whinnying]

I'll be back.

I promise.
