AMY: MOM!

(CRASH)

I LOVE YOU, MOM.

SO HOW COME YOU'RE GOING THROUGH ALL MOM'S STUFF

AND YOU'RE MAKING ALL THESE DECISIONS ABOUT THINGS THAT...?

YOU'RE NOT EVEN PLANNING TO STICK AROUND.

BECAUSE SOMEBODY HAS TO, AMY.

WELL, YOUR MOM,

ALWAYS SAID YOU HAD "THE GIFT".

LOU: YOU CAN'T ASK HER TO WORK MIRACLES

IN TWO SECONDS IN FRONT OF A CROWD.

ISN'T THAT WHAT HORSE WHISPERERS DO?

I AM NOT A HORSE WHISPERER. I'VE NEVER CLAIMED TO BE.

WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THE BABES?

HERE'S THE DEAL WITH THEM -

YOU KEEP TEN FEET AWAY AT ALL TIMES.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

ANY PART OF YOU THAT CROSSES THAT LINE WILL BE REMOVED.

MALLORY: OH, I HAVE A QUESTION.

HOW MUCH DOES JACK PAY YOU?

I THINK EVERY BOY NEEDS A GOOD MAN IN HIS LIFE.

HECK, WHO DOESN'T, HEY?

JACK: STOP! BOTH OF YOU!

THERE'S A WAY TO WORK THIS OUT!

MAYBE INTENSE FAMILY THERAPY.

DAD, WE'RE PRACTICALLY NEIGHBOURS.

TIM: YEAH.

I TOLD YOU I WASN'T PLANNING ON LEAVING TOWN

AND YOUR GRANDFATHER HAS NO SAY IN THAT.

JACK: THIS IS MY PROPERTY

AND I WANT YOU OFF IT.

EASY, JACK.

I'M JUST HERE TO SEE MY DAUGHTERS.

THAT'S MY RIGHT.

AMY: YOU LEFT OUT THE PART ABOUT HIM BEING IN TOWN!

EVERY TIME I MENTIONED DAD TO YOU

YOU MADE IT PERFECTLY CLEAR YOU DIDN'T WANT TO SEE HIM.

JACK: YOUR MOTHER AND I, WE WERE JUST TRYING

TO PROTECT YOU GIRLS.

TIM: AMY!

AMY, WAIT!

(LOUD SCRAPING SOUND)

TY: (GRUNTS WITH EFFORT)

DON'T THEY HAVE MACHINES FOR THAT?

APPARENTLY NOT SINCE JACK WAS BORN.

BEN: NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

OVER THERE.

IT'S THE THIRD RAIL OF THE TRIPLE BAR.

(ANNOYED SIGH)

MY PARENTS GO TO SASKATOON

AND ALL THEY BRING ME BACK IS A T-SHIRT.

HIS AUNT GOES TO THE SOUTH OF FRANCE

AND SHE GIVES HIM ALL THIS STUFF.

YEAH, IT'S GREAT.

SO, YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME THE JUMPING LESSONS

AFTER THIS, RIGHT?

NO, FORGET IT. YOU CAN'T RIDE IN HERE.

YOU'LL CHEW UP THE GRASS AND WRECK THE FOOTING.

SO, WHAT'S THE POINT?

THE POINT?

SO YOU CAN WORK YOUR BUTT OFF

AND WATCH BEN AND HIS HORSE

JUMP OVER FANCY STRIPED POLES

AND CUTE LITTLE FLOWER BOXES.

(LAUGHS)

SHUT UP AND KEEP DIGGING.

AMY: OKAY, CUT IT OUT YOU TWO.

LOOK, I KNOW THIS IS IMPORTANT TO YOU, BEN,

BUT I NEED YOU TO GET THAT STALL READY

FOR THE PREGNANT MARE.

AND I TOLD YOU I'D GET TO IT.

(CAR HORN HONKS)

WELL, IT'S A LITTLE LATE NOW.

LOU: GRANDPA!

HEARTLAND IS NO PLACE FOR A PREGNANT MARE!

WE'RE NOT SET UP AS A BREEDING FACILITY.

OH, I FIGURED WE SHOULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION THIS TIME.

RAY'S A FRIEND.

FUNNY, YOU NEVER MENTIONED YOUR GOOD FRIEND RAY BEFORE.

WELL...

OKAY, MORE LIKE A FRIEND OF A FRIEND.

(SIGHS) GRANDPA, IF WE MADE AN EXCEPTION

FOR EVERY FRIEND OF A FRIEND...

I RAN INTO HIM LAST WEEK.

HE ASKED ME ON THE ROUNDUP UP AT SHEEP RIVER.

12 HOURS IN THE SADDLE?

WITH YOUR ARTHRITIS?

YEAH, I KNOW.

BUT...

IT'S A DONE DEAL.

(SCREEN DOOR CREAKS OPEN)

(DOOR BANGS SHUT)

LOU: (ANNOYED SIGH) WHATEVER.

JUST DON'T EXPECT ME TO PLAY MIDWIFE TO A HORSE!

(HORSE WHINNIES)

AMY: EASY, GIRL.

RAY: HEY, THANKS FOR HELPING ME OUT, JACK.

JACK: NO PROBLEM.

GLAD WE COULD HELP YA.

DID SHE TRAVEL OKAY, MR. PHILLIPS?

RAY: KICKED AROUND A BIT,

BUT MELODY'S ALWAYS BEEN A NERVOUS MARE.

WELL, DO YOU WANT ME TO LEAD HER OUT FOR YOU?

I THINK, AMY, IT'S BEST I DO IT.

I'M NOT SURE HOW SHE'LL REACT TO A STRANGER.

COME ON, MELODY, OLD GIRL.

(DOOR CLANKS OPEN)

LET'S GET YOU GOING.

(HORSE WHINNIES WILDLY)

AMY: MR. PHILLIPS!

JACK: RAY!

AMY: OH MY GOD!

WATCH OUT! SHE'S LOOSE!

(HORSE WHINNIES WILDLY)

WATCH OUT!

(WOOD CRACKS)

MELODY!

(HORSE WHINNIES)

EASY.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

EASY.

GOOD GIRL.

GOOD GIRL.

RAY: OH, EASY GIRL.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

SOMEBODY CALL SCOTT. QUICKLY!

♪♪

♪♪

♪ And at the break of day ♪

♪ You sank into your dreams ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

SCOTT: WELL, THE HORSE WAS LUCKY.

NO BROKEN BONES AS FAR AS I CAN TELL WITHOUT AN X-RAY.

KEEP A CLEAN DRESSING ON HER,

AVOID INFECTION,

AND SHE'S GOT A GOOD CHANCE OF CARRYING TO TERM.

MY MOTHER ALWAYS USED TO GO TO MRS. BELL FOR HERBS

WHEN SHE HAD A FOALING MARES.

AND I USED TO TELL HER THAT THERE WERE MORE EFFECTIVE WAYS

TO PREVENT PREMATURE LABOUR.

I'M BETTIN' SHE DIDN'T LISTEN.

SCOTT: WELL, IF THE FOAL'S BORN NOW

THINGS COULD GET A LITTLE DICEY.

TALK TO MRS. BELL IF YOU WANT, BUT DON'T STOP THE ANTIBIOTICS

NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS.

RAY: JACK, I CAN PAY YOU FOR THEM BROKEN JUMPS.

JACK: OH, FORGET IT, RAY.

I NEVER WANTED THE DAMN THINGS HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

YEAH, STILL I FEEL BAD ABOUT THE WAY THINGS

TURNED OUT, YOU KNOW.

SADDLING YOU WITH A FOALING MARE

WAS ALMOST BAD ENOUGH,

BUT NOW WITH THE COMPLICATIONS...

NO, NO, I'LL KEEP YOU UPDATED

WHEN I COME OUT FOR THE ROUNDUP.

WELL, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT, JACK.

(CHUCKLES) WOULD BE GOOD TO GET AWAY.

WHAT WITH THAT PREGNANT MARE,

THE ESTROGEN LEVEL AROUND HERE

IS GOING RIGHT THROUGH THE ROOF.

RAY: (LAUGHING) I SUPPOSE SO, BUDDY.

SCOTT: HEY, LOU.

LOU: I TOLD THEM WE WEREN'T SET UP AS A BREEDING FACILITY

AND NOW THIS.

SCOTT: WELL, I'LL TRY TO DROP BY EVERY DAY AND CHECK IN ON HER.

LOU: EVERY DAY?

AS LONG AS IT'S ON RAY'S TAB.

SCOTT: COME ON, LOU, YOU KNOW IT'S NOT

A BILLING ISSUE.

YEAH, I GUESS I DO.

LOOK, SCOTT, WE NEED TO TALK.

CARL AND I JUST BROKE UP,

AND WE WERE TOGETHER FOR OVER A YEAR SO...

I JUST THINK FOR THE NEXT LITTLE WHILE...

ACTUALLY, LOU, I JUST KIND OF MEANT

THAT YOU'RE ON MY ROUTE

AND ONE EXTRA HORSE, MORE OR LESS,

WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

OH.

YEAH.

OKAY.

OKAY.

(HORSE WHINNIES) (GASPS)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

AMY: TY?

TY: HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

AMY: I JUST CAME TO CHECK ON MELODY.

TY: I'M KEEPING AN EYE ON HER.

(STALL DOOR OPENS)

(LOCK CLANKS SHUT)

(SMALL LAUGH)

TY: (SMALL LAUGH)

AMY: MAYBE WE COULD TAKE SHIFTS.

FOUR HOURS ON, FOUR HOURS OFF KIND OF THING?

YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD.

TY: ALL RIGHT.

I GOT THE FIRST ONE.

YOU CAN COME BACK AT UH, 6:00?

OKAY.

YEAH.

YOU KNOW...

I MIGHT AS WELL JUST STAY.

I MEAN, I CAN'T SLEEP ANYWAY.

BOTH: (LAUGH CONTENTEDLY)

MRS. BELL: BLESSED THISTLE AND FENNEL SEED

TO HELP WITH MILK PRODUCTION.

THIS IS GREAT, MRS. BELL.

I MADE A BIG BATCH OF INFUSION

FROM THE RASPBERRY LEAVES YOU GAVE ME LAST TIME.

AND THIS.

HAVE YOU TRIED RASPBERRY LEAVES?

OH BOYS OH BOYS,

THAT'S THE BEST FOR EXPECTING MARES.

YES, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. THIS IS GREAT.

MALLORY: HOW'S SUGARFOOT DOING?

MRS. BELL: OH, FINE AND DANDY, DEAR.

THANKS YOU FOR ASKING.

PLENTY OF FRESH AIR AND LOTS OF HARD WORK IN MY GARDEN

KEEPS ME FIT AS A FIDDLE.

BUT SUGARFOOT HERE,

I'M AFRAID THE OLD BOY'S STARTING TO SHOW HIS AGE.

GIDDI-UP.

(CART CLATTERS)

I'M WORRIED ABOUT MRS. BELL. SHE'S DEAF AS A POST.

SHE'S STILL PRETTY WITH IT.

MRS. BELL: AND AMY!

DON'T FORGET TO SAY HI TO YOUR MOM FOR ME!

(SIGHS)

(HORSE HOOVES CLIP CLOP)

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

AMY: SORRY I'M LATE.

I HAVE TO WATCH MELODY 24-7.

SORAYA: OH, IT'S FINE.

MORE TIME FOR ME TO HANG WITH BEN.

I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE SHOW THIS WEEKEND!

MAYBE I SHOULDN'T COME.

IS IT THAT OBVIOUS?

YEAH.

WELL, IT'S OKAY. FROM NOW ON

I'LL JUST PLAY MORE HARD TO GET.

BEN: HEY, AMY.

YOU SEE THAT LAST FENCE?

IT WAS PERFECT.

YEAH, JUST REMEMBER TO SIT BACK AND WAIT-

YOU AND RED MAKE SUCH A GREAT TEAM.

AND DON'T RUSH THE FENCES.

YEAH, I'VE GOT TO WORK ON THAT.

SO...

THAT HARD TO GET THING.

HOW'S THAT WORKING OUT FOR YA?

SO, HOW'S SHE DOING?

SEEMS OKAY.

SO I'M JUST WONDERING IF YOU CAN SPARE

SOME TIME AWAY?

I DON'T KNOW.

WELL, I'M HEADING UP TO SHEEP RIVER

TO HELP OUT ON A ROUNDUP AND-

A ROUNDUP?

LIKE A "GIT ALONG LITTLE DOGGIE" ROUNDUP?

YEAH.

YEAH, IT'S A BIG SPREAD. THEY COULD USE AN EXTRA HAND.

YOU THINK YOU'RE UP FOR THAT?

(SMALL LAUGH)

YOU'RE ASKING ME IF I WANT TO RIDE THE RANGE,

ROUND UP CATTLE,

DRIVE 'EM BACK WHOOPING AND A-HOLLERING

ALL THE LIVE LONG DAY?

WELL, WE TRY TO LIMIT THE WHOOPING AND HOLLERING

TO HALF THE LIVE LONG DAY, BUT...

I'M IN!

(QUIETLY) MALLORY.

HEY.

UH...

I NEED SOME MORE RIDING LESSONS.

MAYBE I COULD PENCIL YOU IN.

LET'S SEE... HOW ABOUT NOW?

UH, NOT NOW. (NERVOUS LAUGH)

NOT HERE. NOT WITH SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND.

OH. SECRET RIDING LESSONS.

THAT'LL COST YOU EXTRA.

OH, DON'T BOTHER SETTING A PLACE FOR TY.

I'LL TAKE HIM SOMETHING AFTER DINNER.

LOU: AMY, I'M GLAD YOU AND TY HAVE WORKED OUT A SCHEDULE,

BUT DON'T FORGET

WE HAVE TONS OF OTHER STUFF TO DO AROUND HERE.

BEN: AH, DON'T WORRY, LOU.

I CAN PICK UP THE SLACK.

OH YEAH? CAN YOU COOK?

ARE YOU KIDDING?

STEP ASIDE.

LOU: ALL RIGHT. (TELEPHONE RINGS)

HELLO?

OH, YEAH.

BEN, IT'S FOR YOU.

IT'S YOUR AUNT.

TELL HER I'M NOT HERE.

BEN.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO HER.

THAT IS PRACTICALLY A GRAND PRIX JUMPING RING OUT THERE.

YOU'VE GOT TO AT LEAST THANK HER.

YEAH, WELL YOU LIKE IT SO MUCH WHY DON'T YOU THANK HER?

(SCREEN DOOR OPENS)

MALLORY: HIS AUNT'S ONLY BUYING HIM THAT STUFF

BECAUSE SHE FEELS BAD FOR DUMPING HIM HERE.

MALLORY.

MALLORY.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

LOU: HEY.

LOOK, I HATE TO BE THE BEARER OF BAD VIBES,

BUT WHAT WITH MELODY TAKING UP MOST OF YOUR AND TY'S TIME,

GRAMPA GOING TO THE ROUNDUP,

AND NOW YOU COACHING BEN AT THE SHOW THIS WEEKEND,

WE HAVE A SCHEDULING PROBLEM.

AMY: YEAH, WELL LOOKING AFTER MELODY IS NON-NEGOTIABLE

AND I PROMISED BEN AND SORAYA.

THIS IS WHY I NEVER WANTED TO HAVE A PREGNANT MARE

IN THE BARN.

LIKE... (FRUSTRATED SIGH)

SCOTT: COME HERE, LOU.

GIVE ME YOUR HAND.

COME HERE.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

(GASPING) IT'S MOVING!

SHH. I GOTTA KEEP HER CALM.

(WHISPERING) I FELT IT KICK.

AMY: DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE SCHEDULE, LOU.

I'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

TY: COME ON, I'M READY. LET'S DO THIS!

I'M YOUR TEACHER AND I SAY YOU'RE NOT READY.

HOW MUCH AM I PAYING YOU FOR THIS AGAIN?

NOTHING! AND YOU STILL OWE ME

FOR THE LAST ONE!

RIGHT. PUT THIS ON MY TAB.

HEE YA!

(LAUGHING) WAIT UP!

TY: (GASPS)

MELODY: COME ON!

(LAUGHING)

TY: WHOA! OKAY.

MELODY: (SHOUTS)

OH MY...

(GRUNTS)

PULL UP!

PULL UP!

WHOA!

(SHOUTS)

(GRUNTS)

(GRUNTS)

(PANTING)

ARE YOU OKAY?

(EXHAUSTED EXHALE)

WHOO.

YEAH, NO PROBLEM.

IT'S JUST LIKE RIDING A MOTORCYCLE,

ONLY THE SUSPENSION SUCKS.

(EXHALES)

MALLORY: OH, HI, JACK.

YOU'RE PROBABLY WONDERING WHY WE'RE OUT HERE,

BUT THERE'S NO MYSTERY. THERE'S NO SECRET.

WE'RE JUST-

WE'RE JUST GOING FOR A RIDE,

EXERCISING THE HORSES.

I SEE.

WELL, WHILE YOU'RE AT IT,

YOU MIGHT WANT TO TIE THIS ON A LITTLE TIGHTER.

I WAS WONDERING WHERE THAT WENT.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO TIE YOURSELF ON A LITTLE TIGHTER TOO.

(LAUGHING)

WANT TO DO IT AGAIN?

(CHUCKLING)

AMY: I HAND-WALKED MELODY.

IT'S YOUR TURN TO WATCH HER.

ALL RIGHT, I'M ON IT.

(GROANS)

THANKS.

(GRIMACING)

AMY: WHAT'S WRONG WITH TY?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, HE'S WALKING KIND OF FUNNY.

I CAN'T TELL YOU. IT'S A SECRET.

I GAVE TY A RIDING LESSON.

WE WENT GALLOPING THROUGH THE TRAILS.

YOU WENT GALLOPING?

ARE YOU SURE TY'S READY FOR THAT?

OF COURSE NOT. THAT'S WHY HE FELL.

(SIGHS) WHY THE SUDDEN URGE TO RIDE?

MALLORY: BECAUSE.

HE WAS INVITED TO THE CATTLE ROUNDUP.

TY?

YEAH, JACK ASKED HIM.

BUT HE'S HOPELESS ON A HORSE.

THAT'S WHY I'VE BEEN GIVING HIM LESSONS.

BUT WHO'S GONNA LOOK AFTER MELODY

WHEN I'M AT THE HORSE SHOW?

NOT TY.

HE'S PSYCHED ABOUT THE ROUNDUP.

JACK: ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE UP FOR THIS?

TY: ME? IT'S YOU I'M WORRIED ABOUT.

FROM WHERE I'M STANDING

IT'S YOU THAT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MUCH OF A COWBOY.

IT'S JUST A HAT, JACK. IT DOES THE JOB.

TY.

TY: WHAT'S THIS FOR?

SO YOU WON'T LOOK LIKE A TOTAL DORK ON THE ROUNDUP.

(CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHING)

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK THAT'S MY SECOND BEST HAT

AND YOU LOSE IT YOU OWE ME FIFTY BUCKS.

(DOOR SLAMS SHUT)

(UNDER HIS BREATH) FIFTY BUCKS.

(UNDER HIS BREATH) FIFTY BUCKS.

RAY: GOOD TO SEE YOU, JACK.

HOW'S THAT LITTLE MARE OF MINE DOING?

DOING FINE, RAY.

AMY'S WATCHING HER AROUND THE CLOCK.

RAY: I SUPPOSE YOU KNOW MOST OF THE FELLAS HERE.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE MET OUR TRAIL BOSS.

TIM?

WHAT THE HELL YOU DOING HERE?

I COULD ASK YOU THE SAME QUESTION.

RAY: I SEE YOU TWO HAVE ALREADY MET.

RAY: I SEE YOU TWO HAVE ALR

THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING AND HELPING TODAY.

LOOKS LIKE WE'VE GOT PRETTY GOOD WEATHER,

SO WE'RE PROBABLY FIND MOST OF THE HERD

UP IN THE HIGH COUNTRY.

I SAW A FEW STRAYS WHEN I CAME IN THIS MORNING,

BUT I ALSO SAW A COUPLE OF BEARS,

SO KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN, ALL RIGHT?

AND I GUESS THE FUN PART TODAY

IS GONNA BE GETTING THE COWS

ACROSS MUGGINS CREEK BACK OVER TO THIS SIDE,

BUT I'M SURE YOU SOME OF YOU WILL BE UP FOR THAT.

HEY, ISN'T THAT GUY...

THE TRAIL BOSS, WASN'T HE AT THE OPEN HOUSE?

WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH YOU?

DON'T ASK ANY MORE DUMB QUESTIONS

AND MAKE DARN SURE YOU STICK WITH ME.

TY: SO YOU CAN INSULT ME SOME MORE?

WHY WOULD I DO THAT?

BECAUSE YOU'RE RIDING ONE OF MY HORSES,

YOU'RE WEARING ONE OF MY HATS.

I FIGURE THAT MAKES ME YOUR TRAIL BOSS.

TIM: AND, JACK, IF YOU EVER GET A LEG OVER

MAYBE...

WELL, MAYBE YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THE OLD LOGGING ROAD

UP TO CHIMNEY ROCK,

WORK YOUR WAY DOWN FROM THERE.

IT'S NICE. IT'S EASY.

WELL, I APPRECIATE THE SUGGESTION.

I'LL TAKE IT UNDER ADVISEMENT.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

OKAY, TAKE YOUR TIME.

OKAY, LET'S HAVE FUN, LET'S GET IT DONE.

RIDERS: YA, YA, COME ON. YA, YA, COME ON.

AMY: HEY, BEN.

BEN: HEY.

ABOUT THE SHOW THIS WEEKEND.

YEAH.

I HAVE A REALLY GOOD FEELING.

RED'S TOTALLY ON HIS GAME.

YEAH, YOU'LL DO FINE

AS LONG AS YOU DON'T RUSH HIM AT THE FENCES.

YEAH, WELL TELL ME WHEN WE WALK THE COURSE

SO I'LL REMEMBER.

UM...

SEE THE THING IS I CAN'T GO.

I'VE GOT TO STAY AND WATCH MELODY,

BUT YOU CAN WALK THE COURSE WITH SORAYA.

YEAH, OKAY, WHATEVER.

YEAH, OKAY, WHATEVER.

JACK: THIS WAY.

WHAT HAPPENED TO GOING UP TO THE HIGH COUNTRY?

CHANGE OF PLANS.

BUT DIDN'T THE HEAD GUY SAY-

JACK: I DON'T NEED ANYBODY

TO TELL ME WHERE THE COWS ARE AT.

THIS LATE IN THE SEASON

THEY'LL ALL HAVE COME DOWN INTO THE COULEE.

YOU'RE THE BOSS.

OH MY GOD, AMY,

I'M SORRY YOU'RE NOT COMING,

BUT TWO DAYS ALONE WITH BEN.

AND ONE NIGHT.

IT'S NOT LIKE ANYTHING'S GONNA HAPPEN.

OH MY GOD, DON'T TELL MY MOM.

AMY: YOU HAVE TO TELL YOUR MOM.

SORAYA: OKAY, FINE, BUT NOT UNTIL

WE'RE ON THE ROAD.

NICE.

SORAYA: EXACTLY.

(COWS MOOING)

RIDER: YA! (WHISTLING)

COME ON, COME ON!

YA! YA!

(WHISTLING)

RIDER: COME ON!

(WHISTLING)

YA! YA!

YEAH, PLENTY OF COWS DOWN HERE.

JACK: SHUT UP.

TY: MATTER OF FACT, I THINK I SEE ONE RIGHT NOW.

OH WAIT, THAT'S JUST YOUR HORSE'S ASS IN MY FACE.

JACK: I SAID SHUT UP AND LISTEN.

(COW MOOS)

THE MOTHER LODE.

(COWS MOOING LOUDLY)

I TOLD YA.

NOW THAT'S COW SENSE.

(COWS MOOING LOUDLY)

RIDER: YA! YA! YA! COME ON!

TIM: I MIGHT HAVE MISSED A COUPLE ON THE WAY DOWN.

YOU'RE WELCOME TO THEM.

OF COURSE IT MIGHT BE DIFFICULT TO CATCH ON FOOT.

RIDER: HA!

(LOUD RUMBLE OF HOOVES)

RIDER: THREE MORE!

RIDER: (WHISTLES) YA! YA!

(WHISTLES) COME ON!

COME ON! LET'S GO!

(WHISTLING)

(WHISTLING)

AMY.

I JUST SAW BEN'S TRAILER GOING UP THE DRIVEWAY.

HE WENT ALONE?

NO, SORAYA WENT WITH HIM.

SORAYA AND BEN?

FOR TWO DAYS...

AND ONE NIGHT?

AMY: LOOK, LOU...

I MEAN, BEN MAY LIKE SORAYA,

BUT IT'S NOT LIKE HE ACTUALLY "LIKES" HER.

SORAYA: TOO BAD NO ONE TOLD THAT TO MY MOM.

SORAYA, WHAT HAPPENED?

MY MOTHER HAPPENED.

I CALLED HER UP TO TELL HER WE WERE GONNA BE AWAY

AT THE SHOW FOR TWO DAYS.

AND ONE NIGHT.

I EVEN TOLD HER NOTHING WAS GONNA HAPPEN.

THAT WAS EVEN BEFORE I KNEW FOR SURE

NOTHING WAS GONNA HAPPEN.

I MADE BEN BRING ME BACK.

HE'S NEVER GONNA TALK TO ME AGAIN.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS ANYMORE.

BY THE WAY, THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP

ON THE "LIKING".

(COW MOOS)

(COWS MOOING)

TY: HEY, I WAS BEGINNING TO WONDER.

YOUR COWBOY CRED JUST WENT UP TEN POINTS.

JACK: THERE'S ANOTHER ONE UP ON THAT RIDGE.

YOU STAY DOWN HERE. SEE IF YOU CAN KEEP

THESE ONES FROM WANDERING OFF.

HOW DO I DO THAT?

YOU TAKE THAT HAT OF MINE OFF YOUR HEAD

AND WAVE IT AT 'EM.

BUT MAKE SURE YOU WAVE AT THE FRONT END OF THE COW

AND NOT THE BACK END.

I'M ASSUMING YOU KNOW WHICH END IS WHICH.

HY-A.

(HORSE HOOVES GALLOP)

YOU KNOW, I JUST SAID THAT STUFF ABOUT BEN

SO LOU WOULD BACK OFF.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF BEN LIKES ME OR NOT.

MY MOTHER'S NEVER GONNA LET ME GO ANYWHERE

THAT INVOLVES A BOY,

EVEN A BOY THAT DOESN'T LIKE ME.

THERE'S A HORSE SHOW NEXT WEEKEND.

DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I JUST SAID?

I'M GOING, BEN'S GOING.

THAT SUPPOSED TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER?

'CAUSE IT'S REALLY NOT WORKING.

THE SHOW'S LOCAL.

YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO TELL YOUR MOM YOU'RE GOING.

(CAR HORN HONKS)

THIS IS WHY YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND.

HEY, COWS.

(COW MOOS IN DISTANCE)

(COW MOOS IN DISTANCE)

(COW MOOS IN DISTANCE)

OKAY.

STAY RIGHT THERE.

I'LL BE BACK IN A COUPLE OF MINUTES.

HEY, COWS!

I'M WATCHING YOU.

DON'T MESS WITH ME.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(COW MOOS)

TY: GO BOY.

COME ON!

(HORSE SNORTS)

COME ON.

(HORSE SNORTS)

COME ON.

(HORSE SNORTS LOUDLY)

(HORSE WHINNIES WILDLY)

TY: (SHOUTS)

(GRUNTS)

GET UP THERE.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

(HORSE WHINNIES)

WHOA, WHOA.

YOU GIVE HIM ONE SIMPLE JOB.

(SUCKS TEETH)

(RIVER WATER FLOWING)

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

TY?!

TY: JACK!

I'M DOWN HERE!

WHAT THE HELL YOU DOING DOWN THERE?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK YOU OWE ME FIFTY BUCKS.

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

HELLO?

OH, HI, MRS. STILLMAN.

UH, NO, HE'S NOT HERE RIGHT NOW.

HE'S AT A HORSE SHOW.

OH, YEAH, NO, THE JUMPS ARRIVED.

THEY'RE AWESOME.

OH, HE DIDN'T?

WELL, I'M SURE HE'S JUST...

IT'S NOT THAT HE DOESN'T APPRECIATE IT.

YOU KNOW WHEN YOU GET A BIG GIFT AND SOMETIMES...

AMY, I THINK MELODY'S GOING INTO LABOUR!

SCOTT SAID SHE'S STILL GOT TWO WEEKS!

SHE DECIDED NOT TO WAIT.

I'M SORRY, MRS. STILLMAN, I'VE GOT TO GO.

UH, YEAH, NO, I'LL HAVE BEN CALL YOU BUT...

SEE THE TRUTH IS HE THINKS YOU'RE TRYING TO BUY HIM OFF

SO YOU CAN DUMP HIM HERE.

(BEEPS OFF PHONE)

TY: (GRIMACING)

(HORSE HOOVES CLIP CLOPPING)

NEXT TIME I TELL YOU NOT TO DO SOMETHING, DON'T DO IT.

I HEARD THIS CALF DOWN HERE SO I STARTED COMING DOWN.

MY THE HORSE WENT INTO A SLIDE SO I BAILED.

CAN YOU RIDE?

IT'S NOT REALLY AN ISSUE.

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED, MY HORSE TOOK OFF.

SO WHAT'S YOUR PLAN NOW, COWBOY?

ISN'T IT YOUR JOB TO COME UP WITH THE PLAN...

BOSS?

(HORSE WHIMPERS)

(SNUFFLING WHIMPER)

AMY: WELL, WHEN YOU TALK TO HIM LET HIM KNOW IT'S AN EMERGENCY.

THANKS.

SHE SEEMS TO BE IN A LOT OF PAIN.

I DON'T LIKE THE WAY SHE LOOKS.

WHAT DO WE DO?

I DON'T KNOW. SOMETIMES FOALS GET STUCK

IN THE WRONG POSITION.

WE BETTER JUST WAIT FOR SCOTT.

WELL, IT MIGHT BE A LONG WAIT.

HE'S IN OKOTOKS WITH A HORSE

THAT JUST COLICKED.

WELL, I'VE WATCHED MOM DELIVER FOALS BEFORE,

BUT, I MEAN, WHENEVER THINGS GOT COMPLICATED

SHE ALWAYS CALLED SCOTT.

EXCEPT FOR THAT ONE TIME

WHEN MRS. BELL CAME OVER WITH ALL THESE HERBS.

I'LL CALL HER.

NO, YOU CAN'T. SHE'S DEAF.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO GET HER.

ANYTHING.

AS LONG AS I DON'T HAVE TO PLAY MIDWIFE TO A HORSE.

(SIGHS)

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

TY: GREAT PLAN THERE, JACK.

SPEND THE NIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.

I WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT MYSELF.

JACK: IT'S BETTER THAN TRYING TO RIDE BACK IN THE DARK ON ONE HORSE.

(STRANGE NOISE)

TY: WHAT'S THAT?

JACK: MY STOMACH.

I'M USED TO THREE SQUARE A DAY.

(RATTLESNAKE SOUND)

THEY GOT RATTLESNAKES OUT HERE?

SOME.

(FAR OFF HOWLING SOUND)

WOLVES?

COYOTES.

(SPOOKY HOWLING SOUNDS)

MORE COYOTES?

NOPE.

THOSE ARE WOLVES.

(RUSTLING SOUND)

WHAT'S THAT?

I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE.

(RUSTLING SOUNDS)

ANYBODY HERE LOSE A HORSE?

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

AMY: SHH.

(GATE CLICKS OPEN)

SO WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THE LITTLE DARLING?

AMY: OH, I THINK THE FOAL MIGHT BE STUCK.

I DON'T SEE A HEAD.

MRS. BELL: BOYS OH BOYS.

I DON'T SEE A LITTLE HEAD.

AFTER YOUR MARE HAS FOALED THIS'LL STOP THE BLEEDING.

THERE'S CHAMOMILE, ROSE-HIPS, FEVER-FEW,

BUT FIRST THING -

LOU, DEAR,

BOIL SOME WATER, PUT THESE IN A POT.

IT'S PROBABLY AN INFUSION,

SOMETHING TO HELP THE CONTRACTIONS.

NOTHING LIKE A NICE CUP OF PEPPERMINT TEA.

I TAKE TWO SUGARS, A TITCH OF MILK.

IT'S GONNA BE A LONG NIGHT.

OKAY.

HOW'S THAT?

YEAH, THAT'S BETTER...

IF I DON'T MOVE. (SMALL LAUGH)

OR LAUGH.

(EXHALES)

LUCKILY NO ONE'S LAUGHING.

I'VE GOT SANDWICHES.

I'VE GOT SANDWICHES.

I'VE GOT...

TY: (GRIMACES)

TIM: WELL, ACTUALLY, I'VE GOT BALONEY.

BALONEY AND BALONEY.

MAKE MINE BALONEY.

(BAG PLOPS) THANKS.

I'M NOT HUNGRY.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

(HORSE SNORTS)

MRS. BELL: IT'S JUST WHAT I WAS AFRAID OF.

MOTHER NATURE NEEDS A LITTLE HELP.

LOU: WHAT DOES SHE MEAN?

I THINK SHE NEEDS TO TURN THE FOAL.

MRS. BELL: WE NEED TO TURN THE FOAL OVER AND PULL HER OUT.

(SHARP SIGH) THESE OLD FINGERS AIN'T WHAT THEY USED TO BE.

OH, WHERE IS MARION WHEN YOU NEED HER?

AMY, LOU,

ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES.

ME?

YOU DON'T EXPECT ME TO...

LOU, COME ON.

THE MARE'S TIRING.

BUT...

WHAT ABOUT...

ISN'T THERE A PLAN B?

YOU ARE THE PLAN B.

(HORSE SNORTS)

LOU: THIS IS EXACTLY WHY

I NEVER WANTED TO HAVE A PREGNANT MARE IN THE BARN.

EW.

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

UGH.

(FIRE CRACKLES)

(PAPER BAG CRINKLES)

TY: YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT THE LAST ONE, JACK?

THEY'RE NOT HALF BAD.

JACK: NO, THANK YOU.

JACK DOESN'T WANT ANY BALONEY.

JACK JUST WANTS TO EAT HIMSELF UP INSIDE.

WELL, IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND, JACK, YOU KNOW,

YOU JUST LET ME KNOW. I'M HAPPY TO HELP YOU OUT.

DON'T COUNT ON THAT HAPPENING ANYTIME SOON.

WELL, THAT'S FUNNY TO HEAR YOU SAY THAT,

BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY TIME I'VE RUN INTO YOU LATELY

I'VE DONE NOTHING BUT HELP YOU OUT.

THE HELL YOU HAVE.

COME ON.

AMY GETS HURT, TY HERE GETS WRACKED UP.

BIT OF A PATTERN, DON'T YOU THINK?

IT'S KIND OF A PATTERN.

YOU SCREW UP,

I HELP YOU OUT.

CAREFUL, PAL.

TIM: AND ONE OF THESE DAYS

I'M GONNA BE HELPING YOU GET UP ON YOUR HORSE.

I GUESS THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN OLD MAN TRIES TO DO

A YOUNGER MAN'S JOB.

LIKE GATHERING UP CATTLE OR...

OR TRYING TO BE A FATHER.

(GROANS) GET OFF HIM!

(VIOLENT PUNCH)

JACK: (BIG GRUNT)

WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH YOU GUYS?!

WHAT? HE DIDN'T TELL YA?

I WAS MARRIED TO HIS DAUGHTER.

WHY YOU CALL THAT A MARRIAGE?

YOU'RE AMY AND LOU'S DAD?

(HORSE SNUFFLES)

OH, I'VE GOT IT.

MRS. BELL: WHEN YOU GET THE HEAD

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO EASE IT AROUND.

(CHUCKLES) IT'S WORKING.

OKAY.

LOU, I'M GONNA NEED YOU TO GRAB THE FOAL'S HOOVES

AND PULL WHEN THE MARE PUSHES.

PULL ON THE WHAT?

MRS. BELL: LOU!

GET IN THERE AND HELP YOUR SISTER!

COME ON, GIRLS! HERE IT COMES!

(SLOPPING SOUND) (HORSE GRUNTS)

PULL!

(HORSE GRUNTS)

I CAN'T SPEAK FOR JACK,

BUT I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DID FOR US.

(CHUCKLING) NEXT TIME I'LL TRY AND STAY ON MY HORSE.

HOW ARE THE RIBS?

THE BANDAGE HELPS.

(GRIMACING) A LITTLE.

BOTH: (CHUCKLE)

SEE YOU MADE YOURSELF A NEW FRIEND.

(DOOR SLAMS SHUT)

I DON'T GET YOU GUYS.

I MEAN IT'S NOT JUST YOU. IT'S YOUR WHOLE FAMILY.

THIS WHOLE TIME I'VE BEEN HERE

NOBODY SAID A WORD ABOUT LOU OR AMY HAVING A FATHER.

I JUST FIGURED HE WAS DEAD OR SOMETHING.

HE MIGHT AS WELL HAVE BEEN.

YOU CAN KEEP THE HAT.

YOU EARNED IT.

YOU EARNED IT.

SORAYA: BEN, HEY.

BEN: HEY.

SORAYA: MELODY HAD HER FOAL.

BEN: OH, THAT'S GREAT.

SORAYA: YEAH, SHE WAS BORN THIS MORNING.

HOW WAS THE HORSE SHOW?

AH, I GOT THIRD IN THE JUMP OFF.

AWESOME.

BEN: COME ON, RED.

(HORSE HOOVES BANG)

HEY.

YEAH, I GUESS IT'S OKAY.

WHAT? THIRD'S JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR LOSER?

IF I EVER GOT A THIRD I'D BE JUMPING UP AND DOWN.

YEAH, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN OKAY HAVING SOMEBODY THERE

JUMPING UP AND DOWN.

YEAH, WELL NEXT WEEKEND I WILL BE.

DEFINITELY.

(TRUCK DOOR BANGS SHUT)

TY: HEY, WHAT ABOUT THE HORSES?

JACK: TAKE CARE OF 'EM.

HEY THERE, COWBOYS.

GRAMPA!

WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, HE'S GRUMPY TODAY.

TY: HE HAD A FEW ISSUES WITH RAY'S NEW TRAIL BOSS.

LOOKS LIKE HIS ARTHRITIS IS ACTING UP.

TY: NO, THAT WAS THE TRAIL BOSS TOO.

THEY HAVE A FAIRLY OLD SCHOOL APPROACH

TO CONFLICT RESOLUTION, YOUR DAD AND JACK.

TO CONFLICT RESOLUTION, YOUR DAD AND JACK.

(KITCHEN UTENSIL CLANK)

(SPOON BEATS AGAINST BOWL)

(DOOR OPENS)

THEY DON'T FEED YOU ON THOSE ROUNDUPS?

NOT TO MY LIKING.

(SPOON BEATS AGAINST BOWL)

I USED TO ENJOY A GOOD ROUNDUP,

BUT THESE DAYS THEY'LL HIRE ANYONE AS A TRAIL BOSS.

TY TOLD ME.

MELODY HAD HER FOAL.

HOW'D THAT GO?

(SMALL LAUGH) IT'S A...

IT HAD ITS MOMENTS.

(SPOON BEATS AGAINST BOWL)

WHY DON'T YOU LET ME DO THAT FOR YA?

I'LL CALL YOU WHEN IT'S READY.

(SPOON BEATS AGAINST BOWL)

(SCREEN DOOR CREAKS OPEN)

(TIRES CRUNCH) (HORN HONKS)

(CAR RUMBLES TO A STOP)

HI THERE, LISA.

HI.

JACK: YOU COME BY TO TAKE A LOOK

AT YOUR FANCY NEW JUMPING COURSE THERE?

AMONG OTHER THINGS.

WELL...

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU?

WELL, I GUESS YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE MOVIE.

(LAUGHING) I SEE.

THAT'S MIGHTY IMPRESSIVE.

IT'S GOT ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES.

OH, JACK, IT'S JUST JUMPS.

I'M NOT FEEDING YOUR FAMILY AND PAYING YOUR MORTGAGE.

IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF JUMPS

SO OUR KIDS CAN DO BETTER AT HORSE SHOW, ALL RIGHT?

YOU'RE A GENEROUS WOMAN NONETHELESS.

WELL, GENEROUS TO A FAULT I UNDERSTAND

IF YOU ASK MY NEPHEW. IS HE AROUND?

IN THE BARN MOST LIKELY.

OKAY.

I'LL SEE YOU LATER.

JACK: YOU KNOW...

LOU IS, UH, TRYING HER HAND AT PANCAKES.

I CAN'T GUARANTEE THE RESULTS,

BUT YOU'D SURE BE WELCOME TO JOIN US.

ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. THAT SOUNDS LOVELY.

LISA: YOU GOT A THIRD!

YEAH, HE KEPT UP ALL HIS RAILS

AND I WAS ONLY A SECOND OFF FIRST.

WELL, GOOD FOR YOU.

I WISH YOU'D TOLD ME YOU HAD A SHOW THIS WEEKEND.

THERE'S ONE EVERY WEEKEND.

BEN.

HONEY.

YOU CAN COME BACK TO FAIRFIELD ANYTIME YOU LIKE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO STAY HERE BECAUSE I BOUGHT SOME JUMPS.

(SMALL LAUGH)

YOU KNOW, IF YOU WOULD HAVE TOLD ME THAT

A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO

I WOULD HAVE BEEN BACK IN A SECOND,

BUT UH...

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M STARTING TO LIKE IT HERE, LISA.

IT'S KIND OF GROWING ON ME.

AND PRACTICING OVER THOSE JUMPS IT REALLY DOES HELP.

REALLY, SO...

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

COME HERE.

CONGRATULATIONS.

BEN: THANKS.

(SMALL LAUGH)

YOU'RE ONE SMART COWBOY.

SPEAKING OF COWBOYS...

IF MY DAD WAS WORKING AT A RANCH

A COUPLE OF MILES UP THE ROAD,

I MIGHT WANT TO GET TO KNOW HIM.

IT'S NOT LIKE HE'S GONNA TO BE STOPPING IN

FOR SUNDAY DINNER ANYTIME SOON,

NOT IF JACK HAS HIS WAY.

SO THAT MAKES IT YOUR MOVE.

I KNOW.

I KNOW.

WHAT HAPPENED TO GRAMPA'S HAT?

IT'S MINE NOW.
