(gripping music)

(gripping music continues)

(music fades)

(helicopter chuffing)

(Sam and Martha laughing)

- I gotta get going.

- Oh, well.

You know, this is the third time this week

you've come up to visit
that timber of yours.

- Well, nobody else is
gonna take care of it.

(chuckles) 100 million board feet,

part of it ready to be harvested.

And, I'm gonna come up again tomorrow,

unless you promise to come into
town and ave dinner with me.

- Oh, maybe next week.

- Aw. Why not tonight?

Aw, the season's over,

the Lodge is nearly half full.

- Oh, there's still a lot to do.

- Uh-huh.

Only because you won't let
anybody help you, that's it.

- I can't find anybody.

- What do you mean you can't find anybody?

I'm available!

- Sam...

I am not rushing into marriage.

- "Rushing?"

I hate to say this, Martha,

but it's been over four years
since you've been widowed

and I've been asking.

(Martha chuckles wistfully)

Oh, Martha,

I don't wanna wake up some morning

and find out it's too late for both of us.

- You're an awfully hard man to deal with.

- I'm the easiest-going
guy in the whole world.

- That's why you're so hard to say no to.

- (laughs) Well then why say it?

- Oh, I don't know, Sam, I...

These last four years have given me a,

a feeling of independence.

I like that.

- Oh.

That's adolescent talk, Martha.

I know you and I know myself,

and I know that neither one of us are

the kind who wanna go it alone
for the rest of our lives.

- (sighs) Why didn't
you ask me 15 years ago?

I would've said yes then.

- Why?

I guess I was in a hurry to get rich.

That was my mistake.

But I never asked anyone else.

- And you think I'm
making the same mistake?

- [Sam] I sure do.

I sure do.

- Yeah, well, I'll think about it.

No, I will.

I'll come in next week and have
dinner with you, I promise.

- I'll come and get ya! (laughs)

I'll see you.
- All right. Bye.

- Call me if you need me, huh?
- Drive carefully.

- All right, love.

(engine turns over)

Bye!

(helicopter chuffing)
(picturesque music)

(dramatic music)

(Walt toots whistle)

- Take a break.

No smoking.

(foreboding music)

(squirrel chitters)

- Frank, that's your way out,

for the both of us.

- They'd catch up with
me before I went a mile.

- That's a chance you gotta take, man.

- It's no chance. It's
a sure bet against me.

But I gotta get outta here.

A couple of days is all I need.

- What'd the warden say?

- He turned me down, twice!

- Well, what about The Screw, Fleming?

- Ah, he's okay.

But he can't do anything.

- Well, there's another way.

- There's no other way.

I gotta make the parole board listen.

- All right, bump it up. Let's go.

(prisoner sighs)

(toots whistle) Break's over!

- There is a way. Everything
works out all right.

(ominous music)

With a little lunch. (chuckles)

(blows breath)

(ominous music continues)

(dire music)

(helicopter chuffing)

- You know, a young
man ought to be careful

how he picks his friends,

and careful who picks him as a friend.

- (sniffs) I smell smoke.

- You sure?

- I'm sure.

- This is Two Rivers calling Air Five.

Air Five, do you read me?

Come in Air Five.

- Uh, Two Rivers, this is Air Patrol Five.

- Oh, stand by, Bill.

I've got a letter for you,

the one you've been waiting for

from North Helicopter Company.

Hey, how about that?

Go ahead, Dan, read it.

- (chuckles) Well, gimme
a chance, gimme a chance.

(clears throat) Dear Mr. Clay,

we are very pleased to welcome
you to North Helicopter

as newly appointed chief pilot.

- Hey, 10-4!

Yeah! Yahoo!

All right! Yeah!

- Work your way behind
there and cut it off!

Cut that brush off from behind!

Joe, get around in front
of it and head it off!

The rest of you, hit it on the flank!

(men shouting indistinctly)

Get that one!

- It's firing up!
- Get down!

- Look out behind you!
- Get around it!

- [Prisoner] Get some shovel on it!

- [Walt] Back that bush outta there!

Throw some here!
- Moving, sir! Moving, sir!

(dire music)

- And get that spot over there!

Pinch it off behind!

(dramatic music)

- All right, give 'em a hand.

- It's against the rules.

- The rule is not to get burned
alive if you can help it.

- You can't make a prisoner fight a fire,

he's gotta volunteer.

(Joe screaming)

- Get after him, Frank! Bring him down!

(Joe screaming)

Get him off his feet!

No, don't run! Stop!

(Joe groaning)

All right, get back to the fire!

(Joe groaning)

(helicopter chuffing)
(picturesque music)

(Joe groaning)

- All right, all right,
it looks like it's out.

Let's go see how Joe is doing.

(Joe groaning)

- All right, get up. Come on.

(Joe groans)

Easy.

We gotta get him back.
(Joe groaning)

All right, load the men up. Load up.

All right, let's go!

Be right there.

(unnerving music)

How's Joe?

- Hurting.

(Walt sighs)

- Fleming to Pinetree Prison.

Come in, Pinetree.

- [Officer] Go ahead,
Fleming. This is Pinetree.

- We're coming in.

I got a casualty, Joe Randall,

Looks like second degree burns.

Tell Two Rivers station

if they got a fire report to disregard.

We put the fire out.

- [Officer] What location?

- Road 20. Alder Turn.

- [Officer] 10-4. We'll advise Two Rivers.

- Let me know.

(engine turns over)

(siren wailing)

(disconcerting music)

- This is Two Rivers calling Air Five.

Air Five, do you read me?

- Yeah, Air Five to Two Rivers.

Go ahead, Ted.

- Uh, Bill, did you spot some smoke

near Alder Turn on Road 20?

- [Bill] Yeah, I thought
I did, but it disappeared.

- Right. Disregard that.

Uh, it was extinguished by
the Pinetree Prison crew.

- 10-4. Will disregard.

(picturesque music)

(children chattering indistinctly)

- Okay, come on, Judy! (sighs)

Come on, Andy.

All right, children, put
your coats down over there

and your little cookie bags too.

You don't need your coats now.

You have a lot of layers.
(children giggling)

Okay.

(children gleefully chattering)

(disquieting music)

(fire crackling)

- Oh, Peggy!
- Oh.

- I'm sorry to say goodbye.

- Well, we'll see each other again.

- I hope so.

- It's a promise.

- You know, when you and
Alex first came here,

you were just new doctors

and you ran around like a
couple of high school kids.

- We were on our honeymoon.
(chuckles wistfully)

- Here, let me take that.

- Oh, thanks. I'll finish packing.

- Here ya are!

- Oh, thanks, Martha.

- I'm awfully sorry about you and Peggy.

- She told you?

- Mm-hmm.

(Alex abashedly sighs)

- I guess I better go help
with the rest of the packing.

(Martha breathes deeply)

(children chattering and giggling)

- Ms. Malone, may I be excused?

- All right, Judy.

You gonna collect some more leaves?

- No, I saw some chipmunks and
I saved my cookies for that.

- All right, you go ahead.

I'd also like you to collect
some fern specimens though.

- Okay, I will.

- Will you help me sort
these out, Ms. Malone?

- Oh. All right, Andy.

Let's see now.

Why don't we do it according
to the kind of leaves they are,

all right?

What about these? Do
you know what they are?

- Um...

- Look at the outside of the leaf.

Remember what we learned.

(birds chirping)

- You didn't have to tell her.

- (sighs) I didn't mean
to, Alex. It just came out.

- I'm not used to other
people knowing our secrets.

- Well, it's not gonna be much of a secret

when we go to court.

- Peggy... Peggy?

Why can't it be just another separation?

- We tried that once.

- We could try it again.

- And make ourselves more
miserable than ever. No, Alex!

- But, Peggy, I love you.

Hey...

I love you.

- Then come with me.

You can do your research in Los Angeles.

- In a teaching hospital? How?

- New York does not have
a monopoly on research.

- In my field, it does!

Why won't you come into it with me? Huh?

- Because teaching is
what I'm in love with.

(Alex sighs)

- And not with me. (scoffs)

- We're going around in circles, Alex.

- I still think another separation would...

- Another circle.

- I guess you're right.

I'll take that.

(disconcerting music)

(squirrel chittering)
(fire crackling)

(dramatic music)

(carefree music)

- Josh!

Honey, will you pick up the milk cartons

and the straws and things?

All right?

And if there are any cookies
or anything lying around,

get them too.

- Ms. Malone?
- Yeah, honey?

(startling music)

Oh, Lord.

Come here.

Put that in.

Children! Come in now, quickly!

Come on!
(claps hands)

Everyone, run! Hurry up, come on!

Hurry! Come on.

Everybody right here, get
over by the bus right away.

Come on. We're gonna go now.

Everybody here by the bus. All right.

Uh, come on, Josh.

All right, Kevin, Gary, Roseanne, Pam...

Oh, wait a minute now who's missing?

Judy. Oh.

Judy!

Judy, where are you?

Has anyone seen her?
- No.

- I think she was over there.

- (sighs) All right,
children, put on your coats

and stay right here by the bus, all right?

Stay right here until I get
back, do you understand?

All right?

Don't move, just put on your
coats and stay right there.

(fire crackling)

Judy! Where are you?

Judy!

Answer me!

(dreadful music)

All right, children, come
on, everybody in the bus now.

Come on, hurry up, quickly.

Quickly. Come on, everybody sit down.

Quickly, load in.

(fire crackling)
(dreadful music)

Judy!

I'll come right back for you!

(engine turns over)
(dramatic music)

(helicopter chuffing)

- Okay, Two Rivers. Air
Patrol Five, a smoke report.

Smoke report.

- I have your smoke report Bill.

- Roger. Make it sector
four and I will advise.

- Didn't you get a report from Pinetree

about a fire they put out in sector four?

- Road 20 near Alder Turn.

- Get me Walt Fleming at Pinetree Prison.

As I remember, there was a disregard.

- That's right.

- Fleming.
- Hello, Walt.

Yeah, this is Dan Harter.

- Oh, hello, Dan. What's up?

- Who phoned in a disregard on that fire

along Road 20 at Alder Turn?

- I did.

- [Dan] Was there a fire?

- Yeah. Yeah, about a 10th of an acre.

- [Dan] Well, it looks
like it's going again.

- Well, that's impossible.

Look, I turned logs, I checked around,

there wasn't enough heat there to restart.

I checked it all myself!

- [Dan] You might think you did,

but you didn't check it close enough.

- Nah, nah, it can't be
the same one, no way.

- Why not?

You've been up here long enough to know

that a fire can creep along a
route and get started again.

You should've left the watch on it.

(line clicks)
(dial tone rings)

- Expect me to leave prisoner?

- What the hell's a matter with him?

He knows what a big burn
could do to a forest.

We lost three men last year.

(helicopter chuffing)

- Two Rivers, Air Patrol Five.

- Go ahead, Bill.

- Heavy smoke in County
Road 20 near Alder Turn.

It's in heavy brush and timber.

And the wind appears to be

out of the east at about 15 knots.

And that Pinetree Prison crew
did not put the fire out.

I repeat, they did not put the fire out.

(sirens blaring)

(fire crackling)
(dramatic music)

(melancholic music)

- Hey, Doc. (knocks)

Thought you were finished
taking night calls.

- I am, until I get one.

(Alex chuckles)

I've been up at the Mitchell
ranch half the night

with one of the kids.

Gonna have a cup of coffee?

- Uh, no. No, thanks.

We just wanted to say goodbye, that's all.

- Say goodbye?

- Yeah, we're headed back for the city.

- I thought you two were gonna
stay here a couple of weeks?

Huh. Look, humor an old man, will ya?

Come on in, have a cup of coffee.

I hate to eat alone, especially breakfast.

I can't stand eating breakfast alone.

(pensive music)

Say, what goes with you two?

- Doc, Alex and I have
decided to get a divorce.

- Zip-zip. Just like that, huh?

- About the only professional
thing we can agree on

is that we both wanna be doctors.

- And so you're gonna
destroy what you have?

- There's nothing left.

We have to start over separately.

- You don't have to shed
your husband to start over.

People start over every
morning of their lives.

How do you think the world lives
with what it did yesterday?

Starting over is what keeps life fresh.

- I'm afraid we've made up
our minds, but thanks anyway.

Bye.

- I'll take a rain check
on that coffee, Doc.

(melancholic music)

(engine turns over)

(phone buzzing in car)

(tires screech)

(phone continues buzzing)

- Doc Bennet.

- Fleming here at Pinetree.

Look, Doc, I've got a burn
casualty, I need some help.

Can you get out here as soon as possible?

- Is he conscious?
- At the moment,

but it looks like he's going into shock.

- Well, keep him up. I'm on my way.

- Thanks.

(despondent music)

- Want any?

- No, thanks.

(Alex sighs)

(helicopter chuffing)

(sirens wailing)

(fire cracking)

(formidable music)

- Here's that letter Ted called ya about.

- (laughs) Hey, thank you, Dan.

- You're glad to get out of
this firefighting business, huh?

- Yes, sir.

- Well, I'm gonna stay with it
till I get it or it gets me.

(daunting music)

All stations, we've got a major fire

in sector four at Alder Turn.

I will set up a fire camp at Rocky Creek.

All air tankers to sector
four, retardant drops needed.

(daunting music continues)

(fire crackling)
(wind whistling)

(urgent music)

(tires squealing)

(bear growls)

(bear roars)

(tires skidding)
(dramatic music)

- Alex, please say something.

- What is there to say?

(Peggy stifles sob)

Peggy, you're not helping it like that.

- Well, what would you like me to do?

Laugh? Smile?

Giggle that was throwing
our lives out the window?

- That's evidently the
price you're willing to pay

for working in Los Angeles.

- You're insisting on
what you want, aren't you?

- Your first year in med school,

we agreed it would be research!

- But I graduated.

You agreed it would be teaching!

- Only to please your father.

- Oh, let's not start on him again.

- Well, why not?

That's what's really behind it, isn't it?

He wants to see us, really you,

a member of his medical faculty!

- That's not fair.

- You bet it's not.

Not to me, anyway.

Any psychiatrist would tell you

our real problem is your father.

- Not true.

- He hasn't influenced you?

- No.

- [Alex] And he's not the real reason

you want to be in Los Angeles?

- No!

- You're kidding yourself. (sighs)

(helicopter chuffing)

(water splashing)

(dramatic music)

(horn tooting)

(horn blares)

(despairing music)

- What happened?

- Judy...

- Take her inside the lodge, will you?

- Judy? Judy, where are you?

What happened to Judy?

- She's lost.

- All right, you kids get out of here

and come on into the lodge.

Okay, everybody, come on in.

Uh, Beth, would you take the
children up to the playroom?

Go up to the playroom with Beth.

Harriet?

Harriet, where is Judy?

Where did you leave Judy? Where is she?

Harriet?

- The Meadow.

A fire started,

and I couldn't find her.

I called her and I called her

and I couldn't find her.

I had to get the other children out.

I left.

I couldn't find her. (sobs)

- Harriet, what meadow? Where?

- Shady Brook.

- Shady Brook!

Uh, get a blanket and cover her up.

(phone rings)

- Two Rivers station.
- Ted, this is Martha Wagner.

We've got a little girl
lost at Shady Brook Meadow.

- Now talk slow, Martha,
and tell me that again.

- [Martha] There's a little girl lost

near Shady Brook Meadow.

- I got it, Shady Brook Meadow.

Two Rivers calling Air
Five. Come in, Bill.

- [Bill] Air Patrol Five. Go ahead, Ted.

- Bill, we've got a little lost
girl at Shady Brook Meadow.

Better get up there.

- 10-4. Will do.

(dramatic music)

(fire crackling)

(fire whooshes)

(distressing music)

(calm music)

- You know, for the two most
compatible people I ever knew,

we're the most incompatible.

Except for being in love, I guess.

(Alex chuckles in disbelief)

- It's really true, love isn't everything.

- We found that out.

(alarming music)

What's the matter?
- Look!

- How bad do you think it is?

- [Alex] I don't know.

- Could it be up at a lodge?

- It could be, but no matter where it is,

there'll be a fire line.

- And injuries. Doc might need help.

- You think we can postpone
our divorce for a minute?

- I think so.

(dramatic music)

(fire crackling)
(dire music)

- I got a crew to the east and the west.

You tie the line up between 'em,

I'll be right up there with you.

Go!

Hello, Bill Clay and Air Patrol
Five, this is Dan Harter.

- Air Patrol Five. Go ahead, Dan.

- Did you find that lost girl yet?

- [Bill] No, not yet.

- Keep looking.

- 10-4.

- [Officer] No, sir. Doc
Bennett hasn't arrived yet.

- (sighs) All right. I'm
not waiting any longer.

Send the burn casualty down
to the district hospital

and have somebody stay with him.

- [Officer] Yes, sir.

(knocking on door)

- Come in.

Oh, hello, Frank. Sit down.

- I don't wanna sit down. I
want to talk to you about...

- No, I know exactly what you want.

- If you really knew you'd fix it for me.

Okay, I said I needed a
week to find this guy?

Give me two days or a day,
I tell you, I'll find him!

- All right, if you find him,

how are you gonna make him
confess to robbery, huh?

You're gonna threaten to
kill him or something?

Just get yourself in more trouble?

- You don't understand
Indian rules, Indian ways,

the kind of pressure our
tribe chiefs can put on a man

to make him tell the truth.

- Why weren't those tribe
chiefs doing something for you

all the time you're waiting for trial?

- Because I didn't know then

that this rat was the one who did it!

- Frank, I read every letter
you've written to your chiefs.

They know everything you know.

They've had all this
time to try to help you,

why haven't they done anything?

- Nobody does anything
unless they're pushed!

And like anybody else, you
want them to do something,

you've gotta grab 'em and...
- And what if you can't?

- I can!

24 hours, that's all I'm asking for.

- (sighs) I'm not
supposed to tell you this,

but when you in here the other
day, without you knowing it,

I requested to the prison board

to grant you 48 hours hardship leave.

They turned it down, Frank.

In a way, you might say,
I'm in this prison too.

(disconcerting music)

- Frank?

- Harriet? Harriet, wake up.

I better call Doc Bennett.

(disconcerting music)

(rotary phone whirring)

(line ringing)

(phone clatters)

(disconcerting music continues)

(machinery buzzing and whirring)

- Hello?

- Hello, Sam.
- Hello, Martha!

I was about ready to call
you on account of that fire.

- We're in no danger here, Sam.

- But the report is...
- Sam, we're all right.

It's just I've been trying
to get ahold of Doc Bennett

and nobody answers.

- Well, what's wrong?

- A little girl got lost in the woods,

one of Harriet Malone's little girls.

- Oh no!

Anywhere near that fire?

- I have no idea. The Rangers
are out looking for her now.

- What can I do to help?

- Well, that's why I'm calling you.

Uh, I've been trying to
get ahold of Doc Bennett.

Harriet looks very bad.

She's collapsed and, um...

And nobody answers the phone there.

- Well, now don't you worry, honey.

Doc always leaves the
note by the front door

of where he's at.

I'll get him.
- Oh, thank you.

- I'll see you, Martha.

(dramatic music)

(Sam snaps fingers and mutters)

Hey, Alex!

Alex!

- What's up, Sam?

- Oh, boy, am I glad to see you.

Listen, Doc had to go up to the prison

and Martha called and said

that she has a very sick
woman up at the lodge,

um, Harriet Malone, you know
the first grade teacher?

- Well, we'll go.

- Wait a minute, I don't
think can get through

on the main road, on account of the fire.

- Well, isn't there another way?

- Yeah, there's a back road.

Tell you what, Alex, why
don't you come along with me

because I wanna make sure that
Martha and the rest are okay?

- Okay. Peggy, I'll be
back as soon as I can.

Where will I find you?

- Right next to you. I'm going with you.

- But, Peggy, you heard what
Sam said about the fire?

- He's right, you know,
there could be some danger.

I mean, right now the fire's
going away from the lodge,

but if that wind shifts, oh, brother.

- [Alex] That's exactly what I mean.

- You can stay up at my
house now until we come back.

- Alex, I'm a doctor!

(ornery music)

(Sam laughs)

- Yeah, go ahead, Ted. This is Dan.

- What's the situation
at the Wagner Lodge?

- Well, there's no danger

as long as the wind holds
its present direction.

- [Ted] Thanks, Dan. Clear.

- Ross, bring that saw over here!

Fall that tree that way.

- Hey, I want this fire
trail one blade wider.

- All right.

- I'm take road 10 back to the fire camp.

- Okay, the last report, it's
getting hot down that way,

be careful.

- Yeah. I'll have a look.

- Okay, men, get it all,
leave nothing to burn!

(ominous music)

(fire roaring)

(suspenseful music)

(dramatic music)

- Doc! That's Doc's car.

Is he in there?
- Yeah.

- I'll get your bag!

- Here, I'll hold it.

- Easy, Doc. Take it easy.
- I'll be right back!

- What is it? Do you know what it is?

- My-my, um, right leg.

- Okay, okay, just take it
easy and we'll get you out.

Just hang on. Take it easy.
(Doc groans)

Okay, hold it. Take it easy.

(Doc groaning)

Don't use the leg, just leave
it there, I'll drag you.

- Hang in there, Doc,

I'm gonna get you something for the pain.

- Okay, Doc, here we go.

(both grunting)

I got ya.
- I got the leg.

(Sam grunting)

- Oh, Doc, I didn't know you
were that heavy, old buddy.

Easy does it.

Easy does it. Easy does it.

- Okay...
- Easy.

(Doc groans)

Okay, old buddy?
- Hang there, Doc.

I'm gonna get you something for the pain.

- Good thing we're close to the lodge.

- How bad is it?

- It's fractured.

(dramatic music)

(phone rings)

- Fleming.
- Walt?

- Oh, hello, Dan.

- This is one heck of a fire.

And this one's not gonna
get away from me, Walt,

but I need help.

- Hang on.

Give me attention.

For the fire beyond
Silverton, I want volunteers.

(devious music)

Dan, we're on our way with a tough crew.

- We're gonna need 'em.

(fire roars)
(dramatic music)

(fire roaring)

- All right, hurry up, let's get loaded!

Come on!

(engines turning over)

- All right, let's load this here.

- I told you there was another way out.

Did you ever hear about
the Count of Monte Cristo?

- What do you mean?

- Well, a guy I once worked
with told me all about him.

Old Monte Crystal was in a
prison, played like he was dead,

sewed himself up in a sack,

and his crew just threw him in the bay.

- I don't get it.

- A fire that big

don't leave any trace
if you get caught in it.

- So you're dead?

- You get through, they
thinks you're dead.

- Would it work?
- All right, load up!

- It'll work.

(dubious music)

(engine turns over)

(crickets chirping)
(worrisome music)

(phone clatters)

(horn tooting)

- Oh, thank God you're here!

I just left Harriet and
I can't find any pulse!

- Peggy'll take care of
her, I'll take care of Doc.

- Doc? What happened to Doc?
- I got you.

He went off the road on
the way to Pinetree Camp.

- Is he all right?
- Easy, watch the leg.

He's got a broken leg.

- Take his leg, Martha.
- Got it.

- I got him. Okay, here we go.

(Doc groaning)

Easy.

(dramatic music)

- She's getting a heartbeat.

Stronger.

Okay.

Let's try some black coffee.

She's gonna be all right.

- Oh, I'm sure glad you're here, Sam.

- Thanks, Martha. Can I get you something?

- No, thanks.

You're the dearest man in the world.

- I'm the biggest failure.

(warm music)

- [Ted] Two Rivers to fire camp.

- Yeah, go ahead.

- The search party for the
lost girl has come in, no luck.

- Well send 'em out again.

- Okay. What's your situation?
(vehicles approaching)

- The Pinetree crew and the
loggers are just pulling in.

- Okay, Dan. This is Two Rivers out.

- Hello, Dan.

- Glad to see ya.

- Where do you want us?

- Go right up the trail,
you'll come to the fire line.

See Harry Dahlberg,

he's the sector boss.
- Okay.

He'll tell you what's needed. Get going.

Follow the Pinetree trucks!

(fire roaring)

I got you 10 men, Harry.

- Good, Fleming.

We're trying to tie the
line here into this road.

- All right, you got it.

All right, let's bump it up! Let's go!

(fire roaring)

- Remember that day we
worked on the railroad?

- Where the trains slow
down and take on water?

- Think you can find your way there?

- You mean we catch the train out, huh?

- Right.

(suspicious music)

(wood cracking)
(dramatic music)

- Look out, Harry! Harry!

(Harry groans)

(men clamoring)

Get a water pumper! Call for a tank!

Lift this log!

All right, put it on there!

Hold it, we got it!
- Whoa!

(muttering indistinctly)

Get him at the other end!

Get him!
(Harry groaning)

All right, we'll get him to first aid.

(fire crackling)

- Mm, better start wetting
down the lodge, honey.

- Okay, I'm gonna need just
a little more traction.

That's it.

How's the pain?

Well, whatever the pain,

it's a pleasure to watch
a good doctor work.

- Orthopedics, prosthetics,
that's my field.

- Oh, research, huh? (chuckles)

Plastics, ceramics,

hip bones, knee caps,

shin bones,

toe bones, trombones. (laughs)

Tell me, Alex,

what's it feel like to treat

a real life person like me, huh?

(both chuckle)

- Harriet, come on.

You're blaming yourself

for something that
hasn't even happened yet.

- I know it has, Judy's dead.

- You're wrong and I know you're wrong.

And furthermore,
(children chattering)

there's Pam, Kevin,

and Gary, Roseanne,

all the kids you saved.

- [Child] They'll find Judy.
I'm glad you took care of us.

- [Child 2] Don't cry, Ms. Malone.

It wasn't your fault.
- I'm glad you're my teacher.

(Harriet sobs)
(warm music)

(helicopter chuffing)
(dramatic music)

(fire crackling)

- Fire camp, fire camp,
this is Air Patrol Five.

Fire camp, fire camp,
this is Air Patrol Five.

- Yeah, Bill this is fire camp. Go ahead.

- Roger, I just spotted the lost child

in a gully near Shady Brook Meadow,

but I could not land there.

- Wait a minute, Bill.

Listen, you're close to Wagner's Lodge.

I'll phone them and you can lead them

to where the little girl is.

- Roger. 10-4.

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

Yes.

Yes, Dan, I understand.

Thank you!

- Bill Clay found Judy.

- Oh good!
- Where is she?

- He didn't say.

His helicopter will lead us.

Listen, get your bag,
she might be hurt, huh?

- All right, now, you can go to sleep.

Come on, lie down.

(Harriet sighing)

Relax.

(helicopter chuffing in distance)

- Hold it!

There he comes!

Let's go!

(suspenseful music)

(engine turns over)

(fire crackling)
(suspenseful music continues)

(helicopter chuffing)

(suspenseful music continues)

(fire crackling)

- [Bill] She's in the
gully, just east of you.

- She should be right down there.

I'll go ahead.

- All right, I'll tie this off.

(suspenseful music continues)

- There she is!

- Ah, the poor kid.

Listen, Alex, you go down and get her,

I'll try to hold that fire off, huh?

- Right.

- (grunting) There you go.

Okay?

- Yeah.

(dramatic music)

(fire crackling)

- Alex! How's she doing?

- She'll be all right!

(fire crackling)

(Judy grunts)

It's okay! It's all right

We're going home to mama.

Put your arms around my neck

and hang on tight!

(dramatic music)

(wood cracking)

(Judy screams)

- Alex!

- We're okay! I've got the rope!

- Okay! I'm gonna bring you up!

(tense music)

(engine turns over)

(tense music continues)

(engine revs)

(Sam mutters indistinctly)

(dramatic music)

(tires skid)

(fire roaring)

- The wind must've shifted.

- Then we'll go to the
fire camp at Rocky Creek.

(treacherous music)

I'm gonna take her over the first aid,

they can get her to chow.

- Okay, okay.

- Sam, the wind shift,

does that mean the lodge is in danger?

- Most likely.

I'm gonna go up and see the fire boss

just as soon as I phone the lodge

and tell 'em that Judy's safe, okay?

See ya.

- Yeah.

- Hello! Anybody here?

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

Oh, Sam!

Judy's safe? Oh, thank heaven.

Well, they're making water drops,

but the ridge is still burning.

Yes, all right.

Now, we'll stay right here
till you tell us to come.

Okay. Thank you, thank you.

(Peggy sighs)

Judy's with Sam and Alex at the fire camp.

She's all right.
- Oh, good. I'll tell Harriet.

- It's called a, an air splint, Andy.

It's kind of like a...

A scaffolding around a house

when it's being repaired, you know?

- Good news! Judy's safe.

- Oh, thank God.

- I'll tell everybody!

- And thanks to Sam Brisbane and Alex.

- And you.

- Me?

- Yeah, the both of you,
for coming back and helping.

- Well, it's the least we could do

after deciding to Desert Silverton.

- Oh, the two of you did
consider practicing here, huh?

- Not really.

- Oh, we've got wonderful
people around here,

Andy's parents, and...

Could you tell that boy had polio?

- When?

- He got it on his third birthday.

- You'd never known it.

No signs of atrophy.

He never walks, always runs.

(Doc chuckles)

A complete recovery.

- That complete recovery
took four long years

of treatment and care,

lots of care.

You know, it's wonderful
caring for people.

(wistful music)

You and Alex would like it.

(daunting music)

(bulldozer rumbling)

(plane buzzing)

(daunting music continues)

- Hey, get Bobby, get on
that side and cut it in!

Sam!

Yeah, I heard you just
brought a little girl in.

You cheated the devil. Good for you!

- We were lucky.

That wind has shifted
and the fire on the ridge

is traveling right toward
Martha Wagner's Lodge.

Listen, we gotta get
those people outta there!

- I ordered Bill Clay to lift them out.

- Oh, I love you!

I see ya, huh?
- Okay.

- [Bill] Fire camp, Air patrol Five.

Dan, I made my water drop

and I'm en route to Wagner's Lodge.

- Yeah, thanks Bill.

(curious music)

Hey, little fella, you
picked a lousy place to hide.

(daunting music)

(flames whooshing)

- Fire! Fire!

- Let's get it!
- Wait, wait!

No, they got somebody on it.

(wind whistling)

(chainsaw buzzing)

Come on, let's get with it!

- It's blowin' up there.

He's taking his chances.

Yeah, well, how else you
gonna cut it across then?

- Look out! Look out!

Let's go!

(man screaming)
(dramatic music)

- Yeah, we thought we'd take a break.

- You guys deserve it.

- [Fireman] The crowns are on fire.

We'll have to blow 'em out of there.

- Anybody else up there?

- Yeah, second boss, Harry Delbert.

- We'll need a few men.

- Volunteers?

- A couple.

- Will three do it?
- Yeah, that'll be fine.

- You're gonna need these.

- All right, get in the back of the truck.

- You got anybody that can handle this?

- I got an expert.

(ominous music)

- Alex?
- What?

- Don't worry. Dan Harter
sent a copter up to the lodge

to get everybody out.

- Oh, what a relief.
(Sam chuckles)

I gave Judy a sedative,
she's on her way home.

- Great, great.

Hi, Dan. What's new?

- More bad news.

We got another fire
just outside Silverton.

This wind could drive it
right on through town.

- What about the people at the lodge?

How soon can we get 'em out?

- Well, Bill Clay just
made a drop west of there.

He should be landing
at the lodge right now.

- [Ted] Hello fire camp,
this is Two Rivers.

Come in, please.

- Hello, Ted. This is Dan.

The fire has reached the edge of town.

Can you spare some of your equipment, Dan?

- [Dan] Well, we've almost
got our fire line tied in.

Can you hang on a while?

- Not long.

And if you see Sam Brisbane,

tell him his lumber mill is in danger.

Tell him we're doing what we can.

- Tell him not to worry.

I can always rebuild!

I just want Martha and the rest
of those people in the lodge

to get out of there.

That's what I'm worried about.

Doggone it! This thing must've jumped.

- Okay, little fella, end of the line.

(urgent music)

(sirens wailing)

(horn blares)

(urgent music continues)

(fire crackling)

(precarious music)

(engine sputtering)

(motor whirring)

(helicopter crashes)

(fire crackling)

- Yes, all right.

Okay, Dan.

- Did you tell them how close it is?

- They're coming to take us out.

- Well, how? The fire's blocking the road.

- They're gonna take us out by helicopter.

(fire roaring)
(dramatic music)

(dubious music)

- I got a feeling we're
gonna get our chance.

(axes thudding)
(tree creaking)

We got 'em notched. We're ready to blow.

- All right.

- You look beat. Frank and I will get 'em.

- All right.

I'll get some more ready.

(fire roaring)

- You do know how?

- I've been on the fire line
a dozen times, with Fleming.

(tree creaking)

All right, the fuse.

Maybe we can't get through.

- You do what you want, but I'm going

(dramatic music)

(fuse hissing)

Fire in the hole!

(Larry shouts indistinctly)

(explosions booming)

(wood cracking)

- Larry?

Larry, let's go, huh?

(Larry groans weakly)

I lost... I lost my gamble. (chuckles)

(Larry coughing)

You go.

Go. (coughs)

(ominous music)

- Frank!

(panicked music)

(dramatic music)

(Bill groaning)

(Bill grunts)

- Fire camp, fire camp,
(radio static crackling)

this is Air Patrol Five, I've crashed.

- Bill, this is Dan Harter. Say again?

- Fire camp, fire camp,
(radio static crackling)

this is Air Patrol Five, I've crashed.

Fire camp, engine failure.

(Bill grunting)

Fire camp, fire camp, Air Patrol Five.

It's Clay.

- Bill, this is Dan Harter. Say again?

(Bill breathing heavily)

- It's a... It's an engine failure.

- Sam, come here!

Fire camp to Clay, where are you? Over.

- [Bill] I'm not sure where I am.

- What's up?

- Bill Clay crashed.
- What?

Did he say where?

- He didn't know.

- Where's your closest copter?

- About an hour away.
- An hour!

Well, how we gonna find him and then...

And get those people out of the lodge?

- You can't use the road,
the fire's blocked it.

- Oh, my God.

If the fires blocked it,

then we'll have to go
cross country, agreed?

- Right.

- Look, I'll need my
bulldozer and a tanker, okay?

- Take 'em.
- Okay.

I'll need a 6x6.

- I haven't got one.

- I'll get one.

Hello?

Hello, this is Sam Brisbane.

Yeah. Patch me through to my depot.

No, no, not the mill, the depot.

- Lake's not in.

- All equipment, hummers,
trucks, lab, all equipment,

we are moving back to Silverton.

Only the mop-up crew will stay.

- Listen, I want that six-by here

in 15 minutes behind my dozer.

You got that? Move it!

- What about the lodge?

If you can drive a six-by, come on.

(disconcerting music)

(Bill sighs)

(fire crackling)

- Clay is down somewhere between

Rocky Creek and Wagner's Lodge.

Get a search plane out for him.

All right, good men, hurry it up!

Go over to Silverton!

- [Walt] Dan, come in.

Come in, Dan.

Come in, Dan. This is Fleming

- Go ahead.

- [Walt] I lost one of my men to the fire

and possibly another.

Tell the Pinetree crew to
come and get me, will ya?

- Okay, Walt, I'm sorry. 10-4.

(siren wailing)

Ted, how's Silverton doing?

- Get here quick if you wanna see it.

(sirens wailing)
(suspenseful music)

(people clamoring)

(fire roaring)

(dramatic music)

- If Clay's copter can land at
the lodge, why not this one?

- It's too big.

(dramatic music continues)

Hey, you men!

Grab those guide lines as it comes in!

(men shouting indistinctly)

- [Man] Hold it there!

(adventurous music)

- When we're ready, you take the lead!

We're going up to Martha
Wagner's lodge, okay?

How about it, boys? Got it all set?

How about it, boys?

- Okay.
- All right!

Let's fire this thing up!

(adventurous music continues)

(engine turns over)

Okay, take it away!

(equipment rumbling)
(adventurous music continues)

(fire crackling)

- Oh!
(Peggy coughing)

The phone lines are down.

- We can't wait any
longer for the helicopter.

- Well, then we may have
to make it out on our own.

- How? Through that?

- We've gotta try.
- Come on.

(wood cracking)

Hey, Doc, we gotta make a run for it.

- All right.
- Easy now, Doc.

- Would you get my...
- Oh, yeah.

- Here, Doc, just let it down.

Just lean on me.

- Okay, come on.

- Here we go.
- I'll be okay. Believe me.

(daunting music)

- Martha?
- Yeah.

- Come on, get everybody
out here, let's go!

- Okay!

Come on. All the children, come on!

(dire music)

Hey, you children stay right
there until I find Bobby.

Bobby?

Is anyone in here?

Bobby? Are you in here?

Is anyone...

Open this door!
(rattling door knob)

Open it!

(Bobby whimpering)

(glass shatters)

Bobby, dear.

(Bobby sobbing)
(Martha coughs)

I know you're in there.
Please listen to me.

It's Martha!

(Bobby sobbing)

Please, it's Martha, open the door!

(trees rustling)

Do you hear me?

(Bobby sobbing)

I know you can hear me
because I can hear you.

You can, can't you?

- Yes, ma'am, I hear you.

- Then come to the door!

- [Bobby] I can't.

- Why? Why can't you?

Is something holding you?

- No, I'm scared.

- Of the smoke?

- And the fire.

- And you wanna get out
of the smoke, don't you?

- [Bobby] Yes.

- You're not afraid of me, are you, dear?

- No.

- Then come to the door.

Bobby, come to the door!

Bobby!

(suspenseful music)

(glass shatters)

Bobby? Bobby, where are you?

Bobby, where are you?
(door clatters)

Where are you?

- [Bobby] Right here at the door.

- Do you see the doorknob?

- Yes.

(Martha coughs)

- Do you see the little bar
in the center of the doorknob?

- Yes. Smokey over here.

(Martha coughing)

- You'll feel better
when we get out of here.

Can you pinch the little
bar in the doorknob.

- Like this?

(door knob clattering)

- Yeah. Can you push in
and turn the little bar?

- Like that?

- Oh! (sighing)

(fire roaring)
(glass shatters)

Walk carefully!

Everybody up! Careful!

- There we go!

Use those steps too!

All right, there.

- Come on.
(Doc groaning)

- [Martha] Get in the back. There you go.

Get into the back.

(Sam grunts)

- I got you, Doc. I got him.

I got him.

Give me your hand, Doc.

This may hurt a little, buddy.

Here we go. (grunting)

- Watch his legs!

- Okay. You got it.

Easy.

- You drive the six-by?

- Right.
- Let's go.

All right. Follow me, huh?

- I want to go with you, Sam!

- No, it's too rough, honey.

I love you.

(fire crackling)
(dramatic music)

(fire roaring)

(flames whooshing)

(sirens wailing)
(dire music)

- Go on up there. Get the CO2.

And take a light pumper in the back.

Get over there and help cut it off!

Water it! Water it!

Give that a rinse there!

Water on that lumber pile!

(Frank panting)
(panicked music)

(train whistle toots)

(Bill rustling)

(train whistle toots)

- I can't see!

I can't see!

(explosion booms)

(secondary explosion booms)

(Frank grunting)

Give me a minute.

(Bill groans)

- You okay?

- Yeah, I just got a
little blood in my eyes.

- Can you walk?

(Bill sighs)

- It's my head. (breathing heavily)

- It's spinning like a top.

(train whistle toots)

I gotta thank you for pulling me out.

(Bill breathing heavily)

Are you from the fire camp?

- Can't you see me?

- Huh?
- Can't you see me?

- No, you're...

You're just a shadow.

- We're still mopping up.
I gotta get over the hill.

If I point you to the road, (grunts)

you think you can make it?

- Yeah, I'll try.

- All right. It's straight ahead.

- Can you see enough?

- I think so.

- Listen, you're gonna be okay.

The road is straight ahead now.

Somebody will pick you up.

Go ahead. Go on.
- Okay.

- (groans) It's, it's all black.

- Go on!

- I'm blind!

- Okay. You win, I lose.

(train whistle tooting)
(train clattering)

(fire roaring)
(dire music)

(wood cracking)

(gears grinding)

(engine revving)

(explosion booms)

- Sam!

Stop! Stop!

Please stop!

Stop!
- If we stop,

we're all goners.

(fire crackling)
(dramatic music)

(Martha sobbing)

(sirens wailing)

(men shouting indistinctly)

- Bring out the hoses
where that line starts!

Get some more equipment over here!

Hit it!

- Hey, give us a lift, this man is hurt!

Doctor!

The helicopter pilot.

- Put him in the back of the truck!

Where's the Jeep?

- Martha, where's Sam?

- Sam is dead in the fire.

- Are you sure? Should we go back?

- No, it's no use. I saw it happen.

We could never get through. (sobs)

He saved us and now he's gone. (sobs)

(somber music)

- Hey, Doc?
- Don't try to talk.

- Yeah, but I've gotta know.

- We can't tell a thing until
we get you to a hospital.

- I've been waiting years for this break.

To have it happen on the
day I get this letter...

- Just try to take it easy now.

Now, just keep your head like that.

How's Doc doing?

- He's asleep.

- Right.

- You know what he said
before he went to sleep?

- What?
- How good it'd be

to have two young doctors in Silverton.

(wistful music)

(urgent music)

- You can't get through town!

- What's the matter?

- We got a fire line blocking the way.

- I got casualties in this truck.

- Okay. First aid is right over.

- Go ahead, right over there.

(urgent music continues)

- Get the heavy pumpers!

All right, bring it up!

(somber music)

- How's that?

- That's fine.

- Feel any pain?
- No.

No. You go help the others.

(Alex sighs)

You all right?

- If only...

If only I'd said yes to Sam.

You and Alex,

don't miss your chance.

(irksome music)

- Hey, Bill! Bill, whoa, whoa!

Hey, take it easy. What are doing?

- Where is it?
- What?

Take it easy.
- My letter.

- I found it. I found it.

Here it is. It was in the truck.

(calm music)

- Glad to see you didn't get lost.

Driver told me he brought
in that copter pilot.

- Yeah.

- That should make you some good points

with the parole board.

- You think so?

- We still got a fire out there.

(hopeful music)

- Hey, I need ya.

I need everybody I can get.

Doc, come on, I need ya!

(sirens wailing)
(dramatic music)

This gas truck is loaded with high octane!

It won't start. I got the cat on it.

Steer it out into the clear.

- If this truck blows,
the whole town'll burn!

- Stay clear! Stay clear of that truck!

It might blow at any time!

Get away from the truck!

You men, come back here!

Come over here and squirt!

- All right, let's go!

(suspenseful music)

- [Dan] Alex, get out!

Get out! It's gonna blow!

(explosion booming)

(children screaming)

- [Fireman] All right,
back away, back away.

(firefighters chattering indistinctly)

(heartwarming music)

- One minor casualty.

- Oh.

Painful but not serious.

- Painful and serious.

- It seems 100 years ago,

we left Silverton and
drove down that highway.

- I've been thinking, Bill
Clay has got a good chance

if his eyes get proper treatment.

- The same goes for Doc's fracture.

- And little Judy
suffered smoke inhalation.

She'll need care.

So will the others.

- Maybe, maybe we should just
stay on for a while at least?

- Good idea.

- Dr. Wilson?

We need a little help over here.

(calm music)

- The fire is under control!

- [All] (cheering) Yay!

- It's almost out!

(crowd cheering)

(distressing music)

- All right, I'll think about it.

No, I will. I'll come
in next week. I promise.

- I'll come and get you. (laughs)

I'll see you.
- All right.

- Call me if you need me.

- All right, drive safe.
- All right, Martha.

- You're the dearest man in the world.

- I'm the biggest failure.

- No, Sam, you're not a failure.

You saved us. You saved us all.

(heavy-hearted music)

(fire roaring)
(vehicle crashing)

(serene music)
