MEET YOU. I'M LOU.

HEY.

TY: I'M THINKING ABOUT WORKING AT BRIAR RIDGE.

WELL, THAT'S A BIG DECISION, TY.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT THAT.

THE SOONER YOU GET OUT OF HERE,

THE BETTER.

LOU SAID I SHOULD STOP TREATING YOU LIKE A CHILD.

HE'S MY FATHER.

I'VE GOT A RIGHT TO MAKE UP MY OWN MIND.

AMY!

AMY, WAIT!

I'D SAY THE HORSE IS DRUGGED.

OLDEST TRICK IN THE BOOK:

GET A ROGUE HORSE, SEDATE HIM,

MAKE IT LOOK LIKE YOU'VE WORKED A MIRACLE.

(CAR DOOR SLAMS SHUT)

AMY: (ANNOYED SIGH) PERFECT.

ASHLEY'S HERE.

(TV PLAYS QUIETLY IN THE RESTAURANT)

WHICH ONE'S THE HORSE?

BRITTANY: LOOK AT THE JACKET.

CARDINAL IS SO '80S.

ASHLEY: THAT HORSE IS WORTH SO MUCH MONEY.

IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE FOR HER TO RIDE HIM.

WHAT?

TY: YOU GUYS JUST...

JUST...?

TY: YOU DON'T GET IT.

GET WHAT?

TY: NOTHING, OKAY?

MAGGIE: YOUR ORDER'S READY, LOU.

I'LL GET ONE OF THE BOYS TO TAKE IT OUT.

COFFEE?

OH, I ORDERED IN SOME OF THAT SPECIAL CAPPUCCINO MIX FOR YOU.

UH, GREEN TEA, PLEASE.

THEY'RE MAKING ME CRAZY.

THEY'VE BEEN SITTING THERE FOR OVER AN HOUR

AND ALL THEY'VE ORDERED IS A BOTTLE OF WATER.

(ANNOYED SIGH)

SORAYA: YOU AND TY NEED TO TALK.

WHY?

HE'S THE ONE WHO LEFT.

SORAYA: COME ON, AMY.

WHAT TIME DO YOU GET OFF?

SORAYA: (ASKING HOPEFULLY) IN AN HOUR?

MAGGIE: (CHUCKLES)

AMY: YOU WANT TO GO FOR A RIDE?

ABSOLUTELY.

BUT I STILL THINK YOU SHOULD TALK TO HIM.

(GASPS)

VAL: WANT THE PERFECT PONY?

ONE THAT WILL WIN LOTS OF RIBBONS?

VAL: OUR RECORD OF PRODUCING WINNERS SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.

IF YOU'VE EVER WANTED THE PERFECT PONY

TRAINED BY THE WORLD'S TOP PROFESSIONALS...

JADE: OH MY GOD, ASHLEY!

YOU LOOK LIKE SO INCREDIBLE.

ASHLEY: I KNOW, RIGHT?

VAL: COME TO US.

JOIN THE WINNER'S CIRCLE.

SORAYA: SHE WANTS TO MAKE A VIDEO?

AMY: YEAH.

IT'S HER LATEST THING. SHE'S TOTALLY OBSESSED.

I THINK IT'S GONNA BE COOL.

ARE YOU GONNA BE IN IT?

NO WAY.

I'M STAYING AS FAR AWAY FROM LOU AS POSSIBLE.

IT'S GONNA BE A NIGHTMARE.

I THINK YOU'RE OVERREACTING. I THINK IT WILL BE AWESOME.

AH, YOU DON'T KNOW MY SISTER.

TRUST ME - NIGHTMARE.

PASS THAT BY ME AGAIN. YOU WANT TO DO A WHAT?

A PROMOTIONAL VIDEO.

A KIND OF DAY-IN-THE-LIFE VIRTUAL TOUR OF HEARTLAND.

NO, LOU...

CARL HAS A FRIEND WHO DIRECTS COMMERCIALS.

HE'S ALREADY TALKED TO HIM

AND HE'S GONNA GET BACK TO ME.

LOU, SLOW DOWN.

I'VE GOT WORK COMING OUT MY EARS.

TY'S GONE.

BEN'S NOT PULLING HIS WEIGHT.

GRANDPA, REMEMBER HOW SUCCESSFUL

THE OPEN HOUSE WAS?

THIS IS GONNA BE EVEN BIGGER!

THAT'S WHAT I'M AFRAID OF.

(CELL PHONE RINGS) BELIEVE ME, IT'LL BE AMAZING.

BESIDES, WE NEED THIS EXPOSURE.

I NEED SOME FRESH AIR.

WAIT!

HELLO, HEARTLAND RANCH?

DYLAN CARVER, THANKS FOR GETTING BACK TO ME.

(MOUTHING) IT'S THE DIRECTOR.

YEAH.

YOU'RE SHOOTING IN BANFF? THAT'S GREAT.

IT'S ONLY ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY.

YEAH, I'LL EMAIL YOU A MAP. NO PROBLEM.

GREAT.

SEE YOU THEN. BYE!

GRANDPA?! (CELL PHONE RINGS)

HELLO?

HI, MR. STRICKLAND.

ON THE ADAM'S ACCOUNT.

YEAH, SURE, I'VE GOT A MINUTE.

HEY, UH...

SORAYA, RIGHT?

YEAH, HI.

HEY, I'M BEN.

I KNOW. I'VE HEARD A LOT ABOUT YOU.

OH YEAH?

YEAH, I BET YOU HAVE.

NOT A GOOD IDEA.

WHY?

HE'S ALREADY INVOLVED.

AMY: WITH HIS HORSE.

OH, YEAH, AND HIMSELF.

(CELL PHONE RINGS)

HELLO?

HEY, SCOTT.

YEAH.

OKAY, SURE. BRING HIM OVER.

THAT'S GREAT. OKAY, BYE BYE.

SO WHAT'S THE STORY ON BEN?

I MEAN NO ONE THAT GOOD-LOOKING

CAN BE ALL BAD.

LET'S JUST SAY HE'S THE REASON

WHY TY LEFT.

COME ON.

(HORSE HOOVES CLOP)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

HEY.

HOW'RE THINGS GOIN'?

OH, CAN'T COMPLAIN.

THREE MEALS A DAY AND MY OWN ROOM.

TV WITH LIKE A MILLION CHANNELS.

NICE.

SO YOU'RE STAYING ON?

NO REASON NOT TO.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

WELL, THEN UH...

THEN I HATE TO BRING IT UP,

BUT I'M STILL YOUR OFFICIAL SPONSOR.

SINCE YOU'RE WORKIN' HERE NOW,

VAL HAS TO SIGN FOR YOU.

SHE'LL NEED TO DO THE PAPER WORK.

OH.

OKAY.

I UH...

WELL, I DIDN'T BRING ANYTHING WITH ME.

YEAH, I THOUGHT I'D FEEL YOU OUT A BIT

BEFORE I MADE THE CHANGES.

OKAY.

JACK, UH...

IT WASN'T BECAUSE OF YOU THAT I LEFT HEARTLAND.

I'M SURE YOU GOT YOUR REASONS.

I'LL BRING THOSE PAPERS BY LATER.

SEE YA.

YEAH, I'LL SEE YOU LATER.

ASHLEY: AWWW...

DO THEY MISS YOU AT THE POVERTY BARN?

IS APOLLO READY?

NO, I'VE BEEN BUSY.

I ASKED YOU TO SADDLE HIM UP AN HOUR AGO.

JUST DO IT,

OR I'LL HAVE TO FIRE YOUR CUTE ASS.

MARNIE: I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA. GO FOR IT.

THANK YOU.

I GET NO SUPPORT FROM MY FAMILY.

IT'S LIKE PULLING TEETH WITH MY GRANDPA.

I JUST HAD THE BEST IDEA.

MY JERRY COULD SHOOT IT FOR YOU.

BUT HE MUST BE SO BUSY

WITH THE SUMMER WEDDING SEASON.

I MEAN, ALL THOSE VIDEOS AND...

OH YEAH, HE'S BUSY,

BUT I KNOW HE'D LOVE TO HELP YOU OUT.

THAT IS SO SWEET, BUT ACTUALLY,

I HAVE A REAL DIRECTOR INTERESTED.

THIS GUY CARL KNOWS.

BY "REAL DIRECTOR"

I MEAN HE MAKES BIG COMMERCIALS

FOR LIKE MAJOR COMPANIES, YOU KNOW?

LIKE THAT'S WHAT HE DOES.

OH, WELL...

WELL, THAT'S GOOD THEN.

THAT'S GREAT.

I HOPE SO.

HE'S COMING BY TOMORROW.

I REALLY NEED THIS TO WORK.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(HORSE CLOPS AROUND CORRAL)

SCOTT: BURT OPAUSKY FOUND HIM IN HIS FIELD.

NO IDEA WHERE HE CAME FROM.

AMY: HE LOOKS PRETTY WILD.

SCOTT: HE'S WILD ALL RIGHT.

HE'S NEVER BEEN RIDDEN BEFORE.

NO PEOPLE SKILLS.

BURT'LL PAY YOU TO GENTLE HIM.

INTERESTED?

WELL, I CAN TRY.

HMM.

DOES HE HAVE A NAME?

SCOTT: NO.

YOU CAN HAVE THE HONOURS.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

AMY: (CLICKING TEETH)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

AMY: HE'S PRETTY SHY.

HE THINK HE WAS SEPARATED FROM HIS HERD.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO BE HIS ALPHA HORSE.

(HORSE SNORTS)

AMY: (CLICKING TEETH)

SCOTT: GIVE HIM TIME. HE'LL COME AROUND.

AMY: (CLICKING TEETH)

SCOTT: I SAW TY IN TOWN.

HE SEEMED HAPPY ENOUGH.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

GOOD FOR HIM.

STUBBORN AS A MULE.

(HORSE SNORTS)

(TRUCK RUMBLES UP)

SCOTT, JUST THE MAN I WANTED TO SEE.

THAT'S ALWAYS NICE TO HEAR.

THAT DIRECTOR, CARL'S FRIEND,

HE'S COMING BY TOMORROW.

SO IT'S TIME FOR THE CLEAN UP TOUR.

AMY: WELL...

I'VE GOT A PAYING CUSTOMER,

SO THE TOUR WILL HAVE TO LEAVE WITHOUT ME.

GREAT. FINE.

ARE YOU BUSY?

I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE AFTERNOON OFF, BUT-

I COULD USE A HAND. PLEASE?

RUN. RUN WHILE YOU CAN.

I GUESS I COULD STAY A LITTLE BIT.

EXCELLENT. THESE GO IN THE BARN.

DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU.

OH, HEY, BEN, CAN YOU UNLOAD THAT WOOD?

BEN: UH, YEAH, I GUESS.

WHAT'S IT FOR?

LOU: NEW TACK BOXES. AND UH...

YOU NEED TO MOVE THE MANURE PILE.

MOVE IT?

LOU: YEAH, MOVE IT. IT'S TOO FRONT AND CENTER.

AH YEAH, SORRY, LOU,

I'VE GOT SOME WORK TO DO WITH RED SO...

RED CAN WAIT, OKAY?

AND WHERE'S MALLORY WHEN WE ACTUALLY NEED HER?

CAN SOMEONE GIVE HER A CALL?

AMY: I TOLD YOU.

NIGHTMARE.

(SHOVEL SCRAPES)

(WOOD CLATTERS)

LOU: THANKS, SCOTT.

HEY, MALLORY, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

MALLORY: NOWHERE.

LOU: GRAB A SHOVEL AND GIVE BEN A HAND, OKAY?

AND JUST REMEMBER, PUT IT SOMEWHERE

IT CAN'T BE SEEN.

I'D LIKE TO TELL HER WHERE SHE CAN PUT IT.

I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU WHERE YOU CAN PUT IT.

EXCUSE ME?

YOU GOT A PROBLEM, LITTLE GIRL?

WHAT DO YOU THINK, JERK-FACE?

YOU UH, YOU DON'T LIKE BEN?

NOT SO MUCH.

WHY?

BECAUSE IF IT WASN'T FOR HIM,

TY WOULD STILL BE HERE.

SEE, THAT'S WHAT AMY SAID TOO,

BUT I TALKED TO TY AT THE DINER.

HE'S GOT A BIT OF A DIFFERENT STORY.

HE'S GOT A BIT OF A DIFFERENT STORY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

THIS PLACE IS FILTHY.

LOOK, I KNOW YOU'RE ALL CRAZED ABOUT THIS VIDEO,

BUT DON'T TOUCH MOM'S STUFF.

LOOK AT THIS. 1998.

WOULD YOU RELAX? UST LEAVE IT!

YOU HAVE BEEN A TOTAL NIGHTMARE

EVER SINCE TY LEFT!

WELL, IT'S NOT LIKE YOU EVEN CARE THAT HE LEFT.

I CARE ALL RIGHT.

I CARE THAT GRANDPA IS TOTALLY OVERWORKED

BECAUSE OF IT.

YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THAT WHEN YOU-

WHEN I WHAT?!

(CELL PHONE RINGS)

HELLO?

YES, THIS IS LOU FLEMING.

OH, YOU'RE DYLAN'S AGENT.

LISTEN, WE ARE SO EXCITED HE'S DOING THIS PROJECT.

OH.

OKAY. WELL, WOULD HE-

OH, REALLY.

WELL, THANKS FOR CALLING.

BYE.

WELL, YOU'LL BE VERY HAPPY.

DYLAN CAN'T DO IT. HE GOT A JOB IN TORONTO.

SO WE'LL JUST FORGET THE WHOLE THING.

SO WE'LL JUST FORGET THE WHOLE THING.

OKAY, I KNOW EVERYONE WORKED HARD TODAY

AND I'M SORRY IF YOU THOUGHT I WAS BEING PUSHY.

IT'S JUST THAT IN THE WORLD I COME FROM,

WHEN THERE'S A JOB TO BE DONE I WANT TO MOVE ON IT.

BUT HEY, THAT'S JUST ME.

I'M THE FIRST TO ADMIT

THAT WE CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT A DIRECTOR.

SO LET'S JUST FORGET ABOUT THE WHOLE THING.

BUT, YOU KNOW, I GOTTA SAY,

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF EVERYONE HAD BEEN

JUST A LITTLE MORE SUPPORTIVE.

'CAUSE I TALKED TO A WOMAN AT C.J.O.T.

AND SHE SAID SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN HAPPY

TO AIR OUR VIDEO.

THEY'RE TOTALLY UP FOR HELPING LOCAL BUSINESSES ADVERTISE.

SO YOU MEAN IT WOULD HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN ON TV?

YEAH, THAT WAS THE IDEA.

WHEN?

LOU: EVERY EVENING AFTER THE NEWS.

THAT'S A BIG AUDIENCE.

YEAH, THAT'S HUGE.

WE'D BE FAMOUS.

ANYWAY, IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN,

SO LET'S JUST NOT TALK ABOUT IT.

WELL, WAIT, MAYBE THERE'S ANOTHER WAY

WE CAN GET IT DONE.

HIRE SOMEONE ELSE TO DIRECT.

MARNIE: SO YOU'RE SURE MY JERRY

IS A "REAL" ENOUGH DIRECTOR FOR YOU?

OH, COME ON, MARNIE,

YOU KNOW I DIDN'T MEAN IT THE WAY IT SOUNDED.

WELL, I REALIZE YOU THINK WEDDING VIDEOS

ARE A LESSER ART FORM.

NO, NO, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

I'M SURE THEY'RE REALLY HARD TO DO.

ALL THOSE BRIDE-ZILLAS. MY GOD.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS MEANS TO ME.

YOU ARE SUCH A GOOD FRIEND.

YOU ARE SUCH A PIECE OF WORK.

JERRY, I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THIS MESS,

BUT DON'T WORRY,

WE CAN DEFINITELY GET RID OF SOME OF THIS JUNK.

NO, IT'S AWESOME. DON'T MOVE A THING.

NO, SERIOUSLY. DON'T TOUCH IT.

I COULDN'T PROP IT ANY BETTER IF I TRIED.

JACK: HELLO THERE, FOLKS.

THIS IS MY GRANDPA, JACK BARTLETT.

GRANDPA, THIS IS JERRY, MARNIE'S HUSBAND

AND NOW OUR DIRECTOR.

JACK: WELL, GOOD TO MEET YA.

JERRY: WOW, JACK.

YOU'VE GOT A GREAT FACE.

THE FACE OF A HORSE FARM.

AS LONG AS I DON'T HAVE THE FACE OF A HORSE.

ALL: (CHUCKLE)

YOU'D MAKE A GREAT MASTER OF CEREMONIES.

HOST, I MEAN.

JACK: (CHUCKLING)

YEAH, SURE I WOULD.

SO WILL YOU DO IT?

WHAT?

JERRY: EMCEE THE VIDEO.

SORT OF LIKE BEING THE BEST MAN OF HEARTLAND.

(CHUCKLING) YOU MEAN TALK INTO THE CAMERA?

NO.

I'M NOT CUT OUT FOR THAT SORT OF THING.

C'MON, GRANDPA, YOU KNOW WHAT?

I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA.

FORGET IT.

YOU WON'T CATCH ME YAKKING IT UP

LIKE THOSE GUYS ON TV. NO WAY.

I'D RATHER BE DRAGGED BEHIND A TRUCK.

WELCOME... WELCOME TO HEARTLAND.

WELCOME TO HEARTLAND.

WELCOME TO HEARTLAND,

A 600-ACRE RANCH THAT'S BEEN IN THE BARTLETT FAMILY

FOR SIX GENERATIONS.

(CHUCKLES)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(HORSE GALLOPS)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(HORSE NICKERS)

(HORSE NICKERS)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

AMY: (SIGHS)

JACK: I'VE STILL GOT A FEW MORE ERRANDS TO RUN.

YOU WANT TO KEEP ME COMPANY?

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M NOT MAKING MUCH PROGRESS HERE.

C'MON THEN. GIVE THIS PONY A BREAK.

(HORSE SNORTS)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

JACK: NICE TO SPEND A LITTLE TIME WITH YOU, YOUNG LADY.

YOU'VE BEEN PRETTY BUSY.

YEAH.

I GUESS I'VE JUST BEEN TRYING TO KEEP BUSY.

IT'S BETTER THAT WAY.

A LOT ON YOUR MIND?

YEAH.

JACK: WELL, LIKE WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

TY.

(SIGHS)

AND DAD.

YOU KNOW, I TRIED TO GO SEE HIM THE OTHER DAY,

UP AT BIG RIVER RANCH, BUT I TOTALLY WUSSED OUT.

I GUESS I'M JUST NOT READY.

WELL, I GUESS YOU'RE THE BEST JUDGE OF THAT.

AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW

THAT I WON'T STAND IN YOUR WAY ANYMORE.

NOW, YOUR DAD IS ONE STORY,

BUT TY, HE'S ANOTHER.

GRANDPA.

WHAT ARE WE DOING AT BRIAR RIDGE?

JACK: OH, ONE OF MY ERRANDS.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

OW!

DAMN, A SLIVER.

POOR BABY.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M SICK OF THIS!

YOU ARE?!

I HATE THE SMELL OF PAINT. IT'S MAKING ME SICK!

AND THE FLIES DON'T HELP.

THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT.

MY FAULT?

YEAH, YOU ENCOURAGED HER.

(MANLY VOICE) "MAYBE WE CAN GET SOMEBODY ELSE TO DIRECT."

YEAH, AND LIKE YOU DIDN'T?

(GIRL'S VOICE) "OH, WE'LL BE FAMOUS!"

MALLORY: OKAY.

SO WE WERE BOTH FATALLY ATTRACTED TO FAME

LIKE MOTHS TO A FLAME.

YEAH, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

MALLORY: OH. HERE COMES THE DIRECTOR.

YEAH, HE ONLY THINKS HE IS.

JERRY: MOST COUPLES REALLY LIKE IT

WHEN I START WITH A BIG ESTABLISHING BEAUTY SHOT

OF THE LOCATION,

YOU KNOW, THE CHURCH

OR WHEREVER THE WEDDING'S BEING HELD.

WEDDING VIDEOS ARE ONE THING, JERRY,

AND I KNOW YOU'RE THE BEST THAT THERE IS IN HUDSON,

BUT I WANT YOU TO REACH FOR THE BIGGER PICTURE HERE,

CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF THIS PLACE,

THE SPIRIT, THE BEAUTY.

OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE MANURE PILE.

WE'RE MOVING IT.

JERRY: YOU DON'T REALLY NEED TO.

LOU: BUT IT'S RIGHT IN THE SHOT.

BELIEVE ME,

I'VE HAD RABID EX-MOTHER-IN-LAWS TO DEAL WITH.

I CAN SHOOT AROUND IT.

BEN: HEY, YOU HEARD THE DIRECTOR.

HE CAN SHOOT AROUND IT.

I TOLD YOU TO MOVE IT, SO MOVE IT.

(FLIES BUZZING)

JACK: IT'S MY EXPERIENCE

THAT THE LONGER YOU PUT SOMETHING OFF

THE HARDER IT IS TO GET TO IT.

WHAT AM I PUTTING OFF?

YOU KNOW DARN WELL.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

HEY.

HEY.

NICE.

HOW ARE THINGS AT HEARTLAND?

THEY'RE GREAT.

YEAH, UM...

BEN'S WORKING OUT REALLY WELL.

AND YOU?

FINE, YEAH.

YEAH, GOOD.

ASHLEY: HI, AMY.

HOW'S THE VIDEO COMING?

VIDEO?

LOU'S IDEA. DON'T ASK.

ASHLEY: WELL, I GUESS IMITATION

IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY.

GOOD LUCK WITH IT.

WE'RE HAVING A FIELD PARTY ON SATURDAY NIGHT.

TELL BEN TO DROP BY.

AND... I GUESS IF YOU WANT TO COME

THAT'S OKAY TOO.

YOU KNOW, I THINK I'M BUSY.

VAL: STAFF IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF BRIAR RIDGE.

WE HAVE NOTHING BUT THE BEST HERE -

IMPECCABLE RESUMES, TOTALLY BONDABLE.

IN THIS BUSINESS, YOU CAN NEVER BE TOO CAREFUL.

ABSOLUTELY.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

JACK, HI!

I DON'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT ANYTHING.

VAL: OH, NOT AT ALL.

JACK, THIS IS LAURA MCBRADDEN

OF CANTOR AND GALLOP MAGAZINE.

JACK BARTLETT,

A VERY DEAR NEIGHBOUR OF BRIAR RIDGE.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

LAURA: AND YOU.

DRINK, JACK?

AH NO, NO THANKS.

I'VE GOT SOME PAPERS FOR YOU TO SIGN,

BUT I COULD COME BACK LATER.

NO, NO, NONSENSE. DON'T GO ALL THE WAY HOME

JUST TO MAKE THE TRIP BACK. (CHUCKLES)

YOU DON'T MIND, DO YOU, LAURA?

OH, NOT AT ALL.

SO WHAT KIND OF PAPERS?

PAPERS THAT SAY

YOU'RE WILLING TO SPONSOR TY BORDEN.

SPONSOR HIM FOR WHAT?

HIS PROBATION.

HIS PROBATION?

HIS PROBATION OFFICER NEEDS THESE SIGNED.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

VAL: YOU HAVE A RECORD!

WE DO NOT HIRE FELONS AT BRIAR RIDGE!

JACK: OH, COME ON, VAL.

YOU SAID YOU TOLD HER!

VAL: JACK, DO YOU KNOW THE POSITION HE'S PUT ME IN?

I FIND OUT IN FRONT OF A REPORTER THAT I-

I AM SORRY ABOUT THAT.

OH YEAH.

THAT I HAVE A CRIMINAL UNDER MY ROOF

WITH ACCESS TO SOME OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE HORSES

IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!

NOW HOW DO YOU THINK MY BOARDERS ARE GONNA FEEL

WHEN THEY READ ABOUT THAT?

(ANGRY SIGH)

I HAVE NO INTENTION OF SIGNING THESE.

I WANT YOU OUT OF HERE

AND I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

JACK: THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

FORGET IT, JACK. I'M GONE.

VAL: YOU BET YOU ARE.

ONE OF MY TRAINERS WILL SEE YOU OFF THE PROPERTY

AND HE'LL WANT TO CHECK YOUR SUITCASE

BEFORE YOU LEAVE!

YEAH, 'CAUSE ONE OF YOUR FANCY HORSES

WOULD FIT IN MY SUITCASE!

(LAUGHING)

(TRUCK DOORS SLAM SHUT)

LOU: WHERE DID YOU DISAPPEAR TO?

I NEED YOUR HELP WITH DINNER.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

WHAT ARE YOU TWO GRINNING AT?

NOTHING.

BEN AND MALLORY: (GIGGLE)

HMM...

(DOOR SQUEAKS OPEN)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(WINDOW RATTLES)

(WINDOW SLIDES UP)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(SNIFFS)

(FLIES BUZZING)

BEN?! MALLORY?!

RRYOY: JEU GOOD TO DO A TAKE, JACK? WE'RE ROLLING.

OKAY.

AND ACTION.

UM...

UH...

JERRY: CUT!

IT'S OKAY. JUST GO AGAIN.

JACK: SORRY ABOUT THAT.

JERRY: IT'S NO PROBLEM.

OKAY, JUST GO AGAIN.

YEAH.

JERRY: YOU READY?

AND ACTION.

WELCOME TO HEARTLAND,

A 600-ACRE RANCH THAT'S BEEN IN THE BARTLETT FAMILY

FOR SIX GENERATIONS.

IT USED TO BE A CATTLE RANCH,

BUT MY DAUGHTER MARION GAVE IT A NEW DIRECTION.

NOW IT'S A PLACE WHERE FRIGHTENED

AND ABUSED HORSES CAN LEARN TO TRUST AGAIN;

WHERE SCARS FROM THE PAST CAN BE HEALED.

FOR MANY OF THESE HORSES, HEARTLAND IS THEIR LAST CHANCE.

JERRY: AND CUT.

THAT WAS GREAT!

MARNIE: GO JACK!

ALL: (APPLAUDING)

LOU: CAN WE GO AGAIN?

JERRY: I THOUGHT IT WAS PRETTY GOOD.

NO, HE SLURRED A BIT ON THE WORD "GENERATIONS."

JUST ONE MORE TAKE WOULD BE GREAT.

OKAY.

WE'RE ROLLING.

WE'RE READY.

YOU OKAY, SCOTT?

I DON'T KNOW... I GUESS SO.

JERRY: OKAY.

AND ACTION.

(STIFF) HEARTLAND COMBINES TRADITIONAL VETERINARY PRACTICES

WITH ALTERNATIVE TH-THERAPIES AND HERBS.

(CLEARS THROAT)

HEARTLAND COMBINES TRADITIONAL VETERINARY PRACTICES

WITH ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES AND HERBS.

I'VE BEEN A VET FOR SIX YEARS

AND I GIVE HEARTLAND MY SEAL OF APPROVAL.

LOU: OKAY, CUT. WE NEED ANOTHER TAKE.

LOOK, LOU, I'M TERRIBLE AT THIS.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

I CAN'T DO THIS.

WELL, YOU PICKED A GREAT TIME TO TELL ME.

OF COURSE YOU CAN.

I SUCK.

SCOTT, YOU HAVE TO.

WHY? YOU DO IT.

I'M NOT A VET. I NEED AN ENDORSEMENT.

I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS AND DON'T ARGUE WITH ME.

I'M NOT ARGUING!

YES, YOU ARE.

JERRY: HEY, GUYS, RELAX.

IT'S NATURAL TO ARGUE.

EVERYONE'S A BIT TENSE ON THE BIG DAY.

THIS IS NOT A WEDDING, JERRY!

(SIGHS)

(WHISPERS) WHAT'S THAT?

YOU WANT THAT?

IT'S NOT GONNA HURT YA.

(BLANKET SCRATCHES)

OH, YOU'RE SUCH A BRAVE BOY.

SEE?

(CHUCKLES) THAT'S A GOOD BOY.

IT'S NOT GONNA HURT YOU NOW, IS IT?

LOU: (WHISPERING) THIS IS PERFECT!

(GATE LATCH CLANKS)

CAN WE GET THIS?

ABSOLUTELY.

NO CAMERA. IT'LL SPOOK HIM.

LOU: WE'LL BE VERY QUIET.

DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT'S TAKEN ME

TO GET HIM THIS FAR?

LOU: JUST KEEP DOING WHATEVER IT IS YOU'RE DOING.

AMY: LOU!

JERRY: ACTION!

LOU: OKAY, DESCRIBE WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

WHAT'S IT CALLED?

UM...

(CLEARS THROAT) THIS IS CALLED THE SACKING METHOD.

A LITTLE BIT LOUDER PLEASE. I CAN'T HEAR YOU.

CAN YOU SAY IT AGAIN, THE SACKING THING?

AMY: THE SACKING METHOD?

LOU: GREAT. NOW JUST PUT THE SADDLE ON HIM.

WE NEED TO SEE WHAT THIS IS BUILDING TOWARDS.

HE'S NOT READY FOR THE SADDLE, LOU!

LOU: AMY, LOOK.

WE NEED TO SEE YOU WORKING WITH A HORSE

IN ORDER FOR THIS VIDEO TO WORK.

IT'S NOT GONNA HURT IF YOU JUST WALK TOWARDS HIM

WITH THE SADDLE

AS IF YOU'RE GONNA PUT IT ON HIM.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

LOU: (SHRIEKS)

(SHRIEKS)

(HORSES HOOVES THUNDER)

OH GOD!

OH GOD! (HORSE WHINNIES)

NO, NO!

(GASPS)

OH MY GOD!

(PANTING)

CUT!

I SAID CUT! (LOUD THUMP)

NOW ARE YOU SURE YOU GOT EVERYTHING YOU NEED?

HE'S SURE.

LOU: THANK YOU SO MUCH.

JERRY: DON'T MENTION IT.

LOU: OH, I TOLD THE GIRL AT C.J.O.T.

SHE'D HAVE IT BY SATURDAY. IS THAT-?

JERRY: AND SHE WILL.

LOU: FANTASTIC! SEE YOU!

OH, I WANT TO SEE IT FIRST THOUGH

FOR SURE!

THAT WAS AMAZING, HUH?

I'LL TELL YOU THAT ONE SHOT OF THE LIGHT HITTING THE POND

IS GONNA MAKE THIS VIDEO.

AND THE BARN DIDN'T LOOK HALF AS BAD

AS I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO. MIRACULOUSLY.

WHAT?

(EXHALES)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

OH, COME ON.

(HUFFY SIGH)

(PARTY MUSIC BLASTS)

ASHLEY: HEY, HELP YOURSELF.

BOOZE IS OVER THERE.

WE'RE JUST STARTING THE BONFIRE.

GIRL: EXCELLENT.

HEY, TANNER!

MOVE UP OFF YOUR BUTT AND GET SOME FIREWOOD!

TANNER: ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT, I'LL GET RIGHT ON IT.

YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE,

BUT I'M GLAD YOU ARE.

I JUST WANT TO GET ONE THING STRAIGHT.

WHY'D YOU LIE TO ME?

ABOUT WHAT?

YOU SAID YOU TALKED TO YOUR MOTHER ABOUT ME,

ABOUT MY PROBATION DEAL.

OH, COME ON.

SO I DIDN'T TELL HER. SO WHAT?

LOOK, DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE SHE WOULD HAVE HIRED YOU

IF I TOLD HER?

I DON'T THINK SO.

AND I WANTED TO HAVE YOU AROUND.

SO CHILL, GRAB A DRINK,

AND LET'S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER.

NO, I DON'T THINK SO.

WHY?

LOOK, I DON'T BITE.

JUST GET SOME FOOD AND BOOZE AT MY MOTHER'S EXPENSE.

THAT'LL MAKE IT ALL BETTER.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

HI.

HI.

HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A WHILE.

BEEN BUSY.

YOU LOOK ALL DRESSED UP. WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

SAME PLACE YOU ARE.

WHAT?

COME ON, I'M GONNA TAKE YOU OUT.

(CHUCKLES)

I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT.

I WON'T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.

I'M NOT EVEN DRESSED.

I'LL GIVE YOU A MINUTE.

SORAYA: I'M SORRY I COULDN'T HELP WITH THE VIDEO.

I HAD TO WORK.

AMY: WELL, YOU'RE LUCKY YOU MISSED IT.

HEY, YOU GIRLS READY?

AMY: FOR WHAT?

BEN: ASHLEY'S FIELD PARTY.

LIKE I'D GO TO THAT.

WELL, I DON'T WANT TO GO ALONE.

SORAYA: AND YOU WON'T.

WE'LL BE READY IN TWO SECONDS.

WHAT? NO.

(QUIETLY) AMY.

UM, JUST DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT US.

AMY, PLEASE?

THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD GO TO BRIAR RIDGE.

(QUIETLY) I'M NOT MISSING OUT ON A CHANCE

TO GET TO KNOW BEN BETTER.

YOU HAVE TO DO THIS FOR ME.

YOU OWE ME BIG.

YOU E ME BIG.

(LOUD PARTY MUSIC AND LAUGHTER)

I'M GLAD YOU STAYED.

(LOW BARROOM CHATTER)

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

(COUNTRY MUSIC STARTS)

TO YOU.

FOR HAVING AN IDEA AND GOING FOR IT.

AND LOSING EVERY FRIEND I HAD ALONG THE WAY.

NOT EVERY FRIEND.

MARNIE HASN'T SPOKEN TO ME SINCE

AND I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY SIGN OF JERRY

OR THE VIDEO.

SO...

(SIGHING) OH WELL.

YOU KNOW WHAT? TO YOU.

THIS WAS A GREAT IDEA. (GLASSES CLINK)

I NEEDED TO GET OUT.

I GUESS YOU KNOW ME TOO WELL.

CAN I HAVE ANOTHER ONE?

SURE.

YOU'RE DRIVIN'.

(NERVOUS EXHALE)

(PARTY MUSIC BLARES)

CAN I GET YOU ANYTHING?

I'D LOVE A MARSHMALLOW.

ALL RIGHT, DONE.

AMY?

OH, NOTHING.

DON'T BURN IT. (LAUGHING)

OH MY GOD, HE'S GORGEOUS.

AMY, TALK TO HIM. YOU HAVE TO.

(CHUCKLES) WHY?

WHY DID YOU TAKE THE JOB AT BRIAR RIDGE?

YOU KNOW WHY.

BECAUSE BEN GOT UNDER YOUR SKIN?

YEAH, LIKE SOME PONY BOY COULD GET TO ME.

THE MONEY? ASHLEY?

I MEAN I HEARD YOU TALKING TO GRANDPA.

I TOLD HIM I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE JOB AT BRIAR RIDGE.

(LAUGHING) THAT'S CRAZY.

YOU HAD ALREADY MADE UP YOUR MIND.

NOT UNTIL YOU WALKED IN

AND TOLD ME TO GET THE HELL OUT!

YOU KNOW, YOU DRIVE ME CRAZY.

YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO HAVE IT YOUR WAY.

I'M DONE.

I'M OUTTA HERE.

RUN AWAY.

THAT'S WHAT YOU ALWAYS DO,

EVEN WHEN PEOPLE- WHEN I WANT YOU TO STAY.

YOU COULD CARE LESS.

YOU WERE GREAT.

WAS I?

YEAH, YOU WERE.

CRAZY, BUT GREAT.

(LAUGHING)

HOST: GOOD NIGHT AND DRIVE SAFE.

JACK: (NARRATING) WELCOME TO HEARTLAND,

A 600-ACRE RANCH THAT'S BEEN IN THE BARTLETT FAMILY

FOR SIX GENERATIONS.

IT USED TO BE A CATTLE RANCH,

BUT MY DAUGHTER MARION GAVE IT A NEW DIRECTION.

NOW IT'S A PLACE WHERE FRIGHTENED AND ABUSED HORSES

CAN LEARN TO TRUST AGAIN;

WHERE SCARS FROM THE PAST CAN BE HEALED.

AMY: (TEARFUL) GRANDPA!

I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.

JACK: (NARRATING) FOR MANY OF THESE HORSES

HEARTLAND IS THEIR LAST CHANCE.

JERRY: (NARRATING) BUT LIFE AT HEARTLAND ISN'T ALL SERIOUS.

SCOTT ON CAMERA: I'VE BEEN A VET FOR SIX YEARS...

JERRY: (NARRATING) NO MARRIAGE IS PERFECT,

BUT THE PEOPLE AT HEARTLAND MAKE A VOW TO HELP YOUR HORSE

AND THEY KEEP IT.

LOU ON CAMERA: OH MY GOD!

CUT!

I SAID CUT!

HE DELIVERED IT WITHOUT SHOWING IT TO ME.

I'LL KILL HIM.

(CHUCKLING)

JERRY: (NARRATING) WHERE PEOPLE AND HORSES,

OLD WAYS AND THE FUTURE,

COME TOGETHER WITH HOPE AND FAITH.

HEARTLAND:

HEALING HORSES, HEALING HEARTS.

JACK: THAT'S NOT BAD,

NOT BAD AT ALL.

(CHUCKLING)

LOU: DISASTER.

IT'S A TOTAL DISASTER.

I THOUGHT IT WAS GREAT. I SUCKED, BUT...

IT WAS AWFUL!

I'VE FAILED. I'VE FAILED AT EVERYTHING.

LOU, DON'T.

NO, IT'S TRUE!

I AM A TOTAL LOSER!

NO, YOU'RE NOT. YOU'RE AMAZING.

DON'T SAY THAT!

IF YOU KNEW...

KNEW WHAT?

(CHUCKLES)

YOU KNOW YOU CAN TELL ME ANYTHING.

(CRICKETS CHIRP OUTSIDE)

I GOT FIRED.

WHAT?

(TEARFUL) FROM MY JOB...

IN NEW YORK.

WHEN?

THEY LET ME GO.

WHEN?

LOU: ALMOST A WEEK AGO.

I STILL HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE YET.

DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD I'VE WORKED TO GET THERE?

TO GET OUT OF HERE?

TO GET OUT OF HERE?

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

YES, IT IS.

IT IS TO ME.

(EMOTIONAL SIGH)

(CRICKETS CHIRP)

(CRICKETS CHIRP)

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

HELLO, HEARTLAND.

AND I'LL GET BACK TO YOU.

OKAY, WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER?

OKAY, PERFECT. OKAY, THANKS.

BYE BYE.

(BEEPS OFF PHONE)

GOOD MORNING.

(COFFEE POURS)

YOU LOOK UH... NOT SO GREAT.

WHAT'S WRONG?

WHAT'S WRONG?

I GUESS YOU DIDN'T SEE THE VIDEO.

GRANDPA AND I SAW IT LAST NIGHT.

IT WAS AMAZING.

COME ON, AMY, IT WAS COMPLETELY HUMILIATING.

IT WAS FUNNY AND PEOPLE LOVED IT.

I MEAN THE PHONE'S BEEN RINGING ALL MORNING.

THE WEBSITE'S NEVER HAD SO MANY HITS.

IT'S INSANE. WE'RE FAMOUS.

(SCREEN DOOR BANGS SHUT)

JACK: WELL GOOD MORNING, SLEEPY.

BOTH: (CHUCKLE)

GOOD JOB, LOU.

YOU KNOW, I MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CHEERLEADER,

BUT...

NEXT TIME YOU HAVE ONE OF YOUR BIG IDEAS,

I MIGHT LISTEN.

(SIGHS)

JACK: AND I WASN'T HALF BAD, WAS I?

BETTER THAN VAL STANTON, THAT'S FOR SURE.

(CHUCKLING)

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

HELLO, HEARTLAND.

HELLO, HEARTLAND.

JACK: SO THEY LET YOU GO.

THAT'S NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF.

YOU TRIED YOUR BEST TO DO EVERYTHING.

I KNOW, BUT...

SOMETIMES SOMETHING HAS TO GIVE.

AT LEAST NOW YOU WON'T BE SO TORN.

AT LEAST NOW YOU WON'T BE SO TORN.

(TRUCK RUMBLES DOWN DRIVEWAY)

(TRUCK RUMBLES DOWN DRIVEWAY)

I'M NOT STEALING.

MALLORY GAVE THIS TO ME.

I JUST THOUGHT I'D TAKE IT WITH ME

IN CASE I EVER NEED TO RIDE AGAIN.

YOU KNOW, MAKE A QUICK GETAWAY.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU COULD STAY.

BECAUSE?

BECAUSE...

I WAS WRONG.

BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO.

WHY?

BECAUSE...

I DON'T KNOW. (CHUCKLES)

(WHISPERING) JUST STAY.

PLEASE.

OKAY.

IF IT'S FINE WITH JACK.

LIKE HE'LL SAY NO. (LAUGHS)

NOTHING HE LOVES MORE THAN BOSSING YOU AROUND.

(CHUCKLES)

(FLIES BUZZING)

I THINK YOU OUGHTA DO THE RIGHT THING.

JUST MOVE IT BACK.

IT'LL HELP LOU...

WELL, IT'LL MAKE HER FEEL BETTER.

SURE. DOWNSIZING.

THAT'S WHAT MY DAD SAID WHEN HE GOT FIRED.

HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?

I GOT EARS.

OH MY GOD! TY, YOU'RE BACK!

TY: (CHUCKLING)

(LAUGHING)

TY: HEY.

MALLORY: I MISSED YOU SO MUCH. DID YOU SEE THE BARN DOOR?

I PAINTED IT.

NOT BECAUSE I WANTED TO,

BUT BECAUSE LOU WENT ALL TYPE-A

AND DECIDED THE PLACE NEEDED AN EXTREME MAKEOVER.

AMY: GOOD BOY.

SCOTT: YOU'VE DONE AN AWESOME JOB.

AMY: THANKS. YEAH, HE'S...

HE'S PRETTY GREAT.

SCOTT: DO YOU HAVE A NAME FOR THE ANIMAL YET?

YEAH, WELL, LIKE YOU SAID,

HE'S AS STUBBORN AS A MULE

AND HAS ALMOST ZERO PEOPLE SKILLS.

SO I DECIDED TO CALL HIM...

LOU.

ALL: (LAUGHING)

YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY?
