Okay.

Noah! Breakfast!

Mom, did you know that there
are four types of ghosts?

Poltergeists,

funnel ghosts, orbs, and wisps?

I did not know that.

What kind of ghosts

do you think will be
at the ranch, Mom?

I don't know.

I guess we're just
gonna have to find out.

Oh, man.

I thought you told Noah
no devices at breakfast,

or we'd get addictified?

"Addicted." And
I'm not addicted,

I'm waiting to
hear about tenure,

and I want you to eat up,

because we need to be
on the road by 8:00.

Where is your brother? Noah?

You know, you boys are
gonna love this place.

There's campfires,
hiking, horses...

Noah! Breakfast, please!

Where is your brother?

He's probably still asleep.

- He got home late last night.
- What?

Ollie!

- Oops.
- Why?

Sorry. Jasmine and I
wanted to get a head start

on college applications
before football starts up.

And you thought the
night before we leave

for family vacation was
a good time to do it?

It's my applications, too.

Yours?

Why? I thought we decided
you were gonna go to Boulder?

I'm about to get tenure.

It's a great school.
You can live at home.

Yeah, it sounds good,

but we thought it might be
fun to go somewhere together.

Yeah... I mean... super-fun.

It's just...

don't you think it
would be... healthy

for the two of you to, you
know, kinda branch out,

meet some new people?

I was kind of thinking
the same thing,

but about you.

Me?

You're awesome, but...

you know, it's been three
years since Dad died,

and it could be good to make
some friends who aren't,

you know... your kids?

Do you feel this way?

I think that it's nice

that you don't have
anything better to do

than hang out with us.

Wow. Okay.

Uh, well...

I'm glad we had
this little talk.

Please eat your breakfast.

Let's get going.

What's Jasmine doing here?

Uh-oh.

You didn't tell her yet?

Don't be mad at
her! It was my idea!

Hey, Ms. Granway!

Hi...

Did you sneak-attack-invite
your girlfriend

on our family vacation?

I'm really sorry. I-I
meant to tell you,

but I knew you'd be mad,
so I kept putting it off.

Noah!

Hi... Sylvia!

Oh, hey, Rebecca.
Thanks for doing this!

Uh...

I love our family trips,

I do, it's just it's me
and Jasmine's last chance

to spend time together
before school starts.

What are you thinking?

Hey! I've never been
to a ranch before.

I actually saved up
money for this coat

so I could be authentic.

And authentic it is!

Did your parents

plan a vacation for
while you were gone?

Yeah, it's more of a belated-
honeymoon type of thing.

Hawaii?

Yes! Yeah, it's our first time!

Wow.

Well, aloha!

- Bye, sweetie!
- Bye.

Thank you so much.

- I really appreciate it.
- Okay.

Let's just go inside, Jasmine.

Okay...

Hi! You're here! Welcome!

Fun, hey?

Hi!

Hey! Come here now.
Come, come, come!

It's so nice to see you!

How are you doing?

You look so good, sister.

You're taller than
me. Oh, my gosh.

Look at you! Hi, baby. Nice
to see you, sweetheart.

Ollie, come here!

Oh, hi!

Uh, this is my
girlfriend, Jasmine.

Jasmine, this is Grandma
Maureen and Aunt Cassidy.

So great to finally
meet you guys.

Noah always talks about
how awesome his family is.

- Aw!
- Oh, that's so sweet!

Well, you're welcome
here. More, the merrier.

Uh, we'll go take the
stuff out of the back.

- Okay, great, thank you.
- Wow, you're so cool

to let Noah bring his
girlfriend on the trip.

Yeah, "so cool"

he basically told me
I need to get a life.

- Oh, that's so weird.
- Okay.

Okay, you leave
your sister alone.

She's doing the best she can.

This place is incredible.

Isn't it?

Yes, and this was
your sister's idea,

in honor of you getting tenure.

Well, I mean, that
hasn't happened yet, so.

Stop being modest.

Aunt Cassidy, I
drew you a picture.

Wow.

Ranch ghosts can
play the harmonica.

Wow! Is that what this is?

No.

It's a ghost holding a flower.

- Purple flower.
- Flower. Right there.

Ghosts also have a
strong sense of smell.

- Oh, wow!
- I didn't know that.

Well, I love it,

and I'm going to
hang it in my room.

Right! Speaking of rooms!

Okay, boys, you're gonna
be in the Wrangler Room,

um, Auntie and Mom next door...

and Jasmine, don't worry,
we'll find you a room.

Okay. Let me take
one. Let me take one.

Let's go! Here, I'll
grab that for you.

- Thank you so much.
- Let's do this!

Yeah!

Family at the ranch!

So... Jasmine seems nice.

Yeah. She's...

Nice.

You know, I just wish they
weren't so... serious.

Wow! Pot callin' the kettle...

No. Okay, Shawn and I, that...

we were different, our
whole... that was different.

- Totally different.
- Yeah.

Mm.

Oh, I just, maybe I'm in denial
that he's growing up so fast,

and he really likes her,

so I should probably
get to know her.

Mm. That's the spirit!

Besides, I'm really glad
that Jasmine crashed,

because I have a
surprise of my own.

I thought you dumped
the performing artist?

Oh, I did.

No, this is my new squeeze.

Okay, we met in New York,

and we totally hit it off,

and get this...
he's from Colorado

and happens to be in
the area for work,

so I took it as a sign that we
should take a vacation here.

I thought you picked this
place in honor of my tenure?

Two birds!

Besides, I couldn't
actually tell Mom and Dad

that I came here for some guy,

otherwise they would think I
was jumping into something.

- You're unbelievable.
- No, which... I'm not, I swear!

Oh... Uh...

That's Aaron. He
owns the ranch.

Good morning, ladies.

How can I help you?

Uh, we were...

Uh... looking for a room.

That's right.

Ah. We're all full up.

Let's see if we can
work something out.

Welcome to the Biscuit Room.

We can set you up a cot in here,

but that's about
the best we can do.

Uh, it's, uh, it's great.

I will go grab my bags.

You know what, Jasmine?

This is gonna sound selfish...

but, uh, I want the room.

You know what? You
can bunk with Cassidy.

Really?

Yeah! Yeah, it'll be great.
It'll be an adventure.

You know, cooks used to
sleep off the kitchen.

Right? Breakfast at daybreak.

Meat and potatoes, coffee,
you know, biscuits...

that kind of thing...
it'll be great.

Thank you, Ms. Granway.
I really appreciate it.

I will go unpack, and
I'll see you later.

Bye.

Seems like you know a
lot about ranch life.

She's a professor
of the Old West.

Ah! Wow.

Well, I'll tell the guys
to bring your bags in,

and, uh, if you need
anything else from me,

just holler.

There you are.

- Oh, hi!
- Oh, hey, Miss Raymond.

I was just about
to come find you.

- Oh!
- Are you still interested

- in that riding lesson?
- Yeah, sure am.

As long as you're my teacher.

I wouldn't miss it, ma'am.

I'll see you down at the
paddock in about an hour.

Okay, cool. See you soon.

Yeah.

What? What?

- Give me a break.
- Mm-kay.

I'm gonna go see if Jasmine
needs any help settling in.

Okay.

Are you sure this
room is big enough?

It's awfully messy.

Yeah, it's fine.

Yeah, you know, the vacation
isn't about the room.

This is about me spending time
with the boys and you all, so.

- Mm-hmm.
- Why don't I unpack,

and we use the rest
of the daylight

to hike Big Rock Trail?

Did you know

that that's the
original cattle trail

- where they had the settlers...
- Okay, stop.

I'm gonna say this as
nicely as possible.

Noah was right. You
need to get a life.

What happened to, "I'm
doing the best that I can?"

It wasn't a compliment.

- Mom!
- What?

I'm fine!

Meh. You're surviving. There's
a big difference, okay?

Your dad and I are
worried about you.

Look, you got
yourself and your boys

through a really difficult time,

but that was three years ago.

You know, maybe it's time to
start thinking about what's...

or who... comes next, maybe?

- Who?
- I did say "who".

- Are you...
- Not at all.

Are you talking about
dating right now?

Yeah, I sure am,
but not just dating.

- Mom!
- Everything, all of it.

Let those boys go discover
this place on their own

for a couple hours,
right? And, uh...

Oh, yeah! You
should go into town

- and get yourself a cowboy hat.
- Okay.

Pew! Pew! Pow!

Okay.

Gotta go... Gotta go ride.

Yeah!

I'm regretting this already.

Hi!

Hi.

I'd like to buy a hat.

You sure you came
to the right place?

Uh...

That's funny. You're joking.

Um, if you could just
point me in the direction

of, you know, something
that would fit this,

that would be great.

Well, that depends what
you're looking for.

Well, something in the
"brown" or "tan" arena.

I'm sorry, is there
something on my face?

I'm just trying to get
a sense of who you are.

Right.

The right hat
should say something

about the person
who's wearing it.

Well, I'm a professor.

I teach history,

with a focus on the Old West,

you know, mostly

the importance of
women in the Old West

and the formation
of our country.

I'm writing a book. Yeah.

I prefer wine to
beer, obviously,

but, I mean, I would take a beer
if there was nothing else, so.

I was meaning, more
on the inside, but...

but I appreciate it.

It's very helpful.
I have a few ideas.

May I?

"Blue-collar cowboy."

The person who wears this
hat is tough as nails,

wakes up early, gets more done

before most people
have their coffee.

Wow. Wow did you know that?

I'm pretty good
at reading people.

Then there's...

"Tried and true."

When others grow weary,
you grow stronger.

It's a hat and a horoscope.

Is it normal for a hat

to make you feel like a
completely different person?

That's the way it works.

Oh. How many hats do you have?

Just the one.

- Ah.
- Guess I'm...

set in my ways.

That fits.

Now, where's that vaquero?

Ah, there it is.

Now, this hat has been
waiting a long time

for the right person
to come along.

Take a look.

"Tough and tender."

Strong enough to
ride the land, but...

gentle enough to warm the hearts

of anyone that's lucky
enough to know ya.

You're really good at this.

I'll take all three.

You take credit card?

Pretty sure they do.

Lefty, you got a
card machine yet?

Jake?

I didn't see you come in.

Oh, I didn't want to wake you.

This lady would like three hats.

You don't work here.

He doesn't work here?

He sure don't.

That's great.

Well, all right!

It isn't every day

that Jake West helps
a gal pick out a hat.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize... I
apologize. I... um...

Don't be embarrassed.

You needed a hat, I was here.

I know the place like
the back of my hand.

I'm happy to help.

Why don't you two go
get a cup of coffee?

I'll get these things boxed up

and have 'em ready to go
by the time you get back.

- Oh, I...
- You heard the man.

Uh...

Okay, um...

Um, I'm the only woman
in the department,

so the idea that I would
be the one to get tenure

is even more exciting.

Feels like everything I've been
working towards in my career

has kind of led to
this moment, you know?

Sounds nerve-racking.

Yeah, well, that's an
understatement, yeah.

I'm sure my boys are tired
of me talking about it.

I have two boys.

Um, I'll show you.

Noah. He's smart as a whip.

This is Ollie. He's nine.

Always making us laugh.

He reminds me a lot of
what his father was like.

Uh...

what happened to your husband,
if you don't mind my asking?

Shawn, uh...

had a heart attack suddenly.

I think the hardest
part about that was...

none of us had a
chance to say goodbye.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, it's okay.

Wow!

I have...

just told you my
entire life story.

Sorry, I don't normally, um...

just talk like that.

You're... You're
easy to talk to.

It's one of the
hazards of being the...

strong, silent type.

Well... um...

tell me about you.

Start from the beginning.

Don't leave anything out.

I want all the details.

- Every detail?
- Mm-hmm.

Saved by the bell.

Oh, I'm sorry.

No! No, no.

I have to go.

There's a rodeo this week.

You should... You
should bring the boys.

They might like it.

Yeah, great. I... I'll, uh...

Thank you...

- for the coffee.
- You're so welcome.

Jake?

Could I get your number?

For...

I mean, in case we...

wanna go to the rodeo?

- Yeah.
- Just in case we...

- Of course. Yeah.
- Decide to do that.

You know what? Why don't
you just put it in?

There you go.

Thank you.

I'll see ya.

See ya.

Hello... family!

- Hey!
- Hey! Hi.

What's with the hat?

Wow! Nice hat!

Thank you. Got three.

- Nice!
- Wow.

Yeah. How was your
horse-riding lesson?

Oh, fantastic. Aaron
is a great teacher.

Good.

You were gone an
awfully long time.

Really?

- Yeah.
- Oh, I...

You met someone!

- Oh, get outta here.
- Yes, you did!

No, I... Okay, fine.

He was so cute... this
cowboy in the hat shop.

See? This is it!
This is your moment.

You have to go
after what you want.

Okay, well, that's
not really me, but...

Hey! The good ones don't stay
on the market for very long.

I have a question.

Was he nice?

Yeah, he was...

charming.

Oh!

Well, you know,

if it's meant to be,
it's meant to be.

Okay.

What?

This is my new guy.

This is Jake.

Oh! Wow. It's so nice
to meet you, Jake.

Exactly.

Nice to meet you.

That's what I was gonna say.

Right.

Nice to meet you. Yeah.

That's a great hat.

Jake!

- There you are.
- Hey.

Good to see you.

I thought you said you
met him in New York?

I did. Upstate.

Sal and Rita were doing
a pottery seminar,

and I was there,
helping them out,

and Jake was rehabbing
one of their horses.

Oh! So you work
with horses, then?

I do.

Jake's a bona fide
horse whisperer.

I called him in to help me

with a mare who's been
running off on me.

Did you get
everything you needed?

Yeah, I did...
set the trailer up

behind the barn, so I can
keep an eye on Bonnie,

and I put my horse in stable 12,

- if that's okay?
- Sure.

Thank you.

I'll see you ladies at dinner.

Bye.

Wow. So, horse whispering?

Wow, that is...
that is fascinating.

It is!

There could be a
totally wild horse,

and Jake comes in, and
suddenly... normal horse,

and he does it all
without saying a word.

Wow. How did you get
into that line of work?

Well, I used to ride for a
living, so when I retired,

just seemed like a
natural transition.

He's being modest!

He's a champion rodeo rider,

and he owns the world record
for saddle bronc riding.

- He does?
- Wow.

Anyway, so my sister, she
met this super-hot guy.

No! That's... I
didn't say that.

Anyway, she should totally
go after him, right?

You don't have to
answer that! It's...

That's weird.

Okay...

Fine! I'll let it go. For now.

Okay, I want to introduce
you to my nephews.

- All right.
- We'll see you guys later.

Hi, guys!

So...

He seems nice.

Who?

The cowboy.

Yeah, I mean, who knows...

Hmm.

Who people are
anymore, I mean...

Yeah.

Okay.

I'm gonna go, uh, put my
hats in the Biscuit Room.

Okay.

Wait! What about
that mysterious...

That was nothing.

Nothing? You said he was char...

- No!
- Ming.

Pitch to the right.

Hmm.

Good morning.

- Morning.
- Morning.

Hi.

Welcome to your first morning
at Mustang Point Ridge.

Here at Mustang Point,

we try to give our guests a
feeling of what it was like

to live on a real working
ranch in the Old West.

But, don't worry, we
won't put you to work.

You will find some activities

that you would have
done back in the day.

Like, uh, today, you
can choose between, uh,

panning for gold

or, um, leather working,

or there's always
horseback riding.

Um...

uh, yeah, um, Ollie?

Will there be any
ghost-related activities?

In a place with
this much history,

I don't know why we
never thought of that,

but I'll see if I can find
you some maps, all right?

Okay, if you haven't picked
your morning activity yet,

uh, now's the time,

and, uh, we will see y'all
right back here for lunch.

- Thank you.
- Thank you!

You know what?
Aunt Cassie and I

signed us up for gold panning.

Is it real gold?

Sure is!

Let's go get our supplies.

Ooh! I'll come
with you. I'm...

You're such a dork.

No, you are.

- Uh-huh.
- Who's a dork?

Noah was telling me

that my eyes twinkle like
the stars in the sky.

- Did he?
- Mm-hmm. Isn't that romantic?

I thought of it

'cause Jake said
we should check out

Aaron's "stargazing on
the open plains" night.

- Oh.
- He said we'd see more stars

than we ever thought possible.

You should, uh... you
should sign up for that.

- You sure?
- Yeah, sure.

- It's the same night as...
- Whatever you guys want.

Hi. Good morning.

Morning.

- How did you sleep?
- Good.

Good, great. Um, listen...

You?

Oh, good. Thank you
for asking. Um...

obviously...

I didn't realize that you were,
you know, dating my sister,

so I would've never, you know...

like, asked for your number.

Um...

so if we could just, you know,

kind of keep that...
out of our memories,

I think that's best, y-you
know, for everybody, if...

well, if you know what I mean?

Okay.

- Okay. Good!
- Right.

I'm, uh, I'm glad that
we're on the same page.

That's a...

a relief... a
one-time hat purchase.

Mm-hmm.

And a three-hour coffee.

Well, a-a visit
between friends...

Oh, there you two are!

Talking about me, I hope?

Always!

Okay, I got our
gold-panning supplies,

and I'm ready...
to strike it rich.

Let's go get our gold on!

Let's.

Okay.

Okay, you guys, okay,
you're going to put...

Are we putting it in?

I don't think I'm
doing this right.

I just got it!

Great. Everybody loves Jake.

What are you doing,
all the way over here,

by yourself?

Ah, I thought I
would, you know...

just so many people
over there, you know?

Yeah.

Thought I'd stake my claim here.

Going on a riding lesson today?

Goodness gracious,

you and your sister
need to just calm down.

- What?
- I'm telling you,

Aaron... he's just one
of those cowboy types

that seems like he looks
right into your soul.

- Mm.
- Mm. Mm-hmm.

And you know what?

I think it's okay to
flirt every now and then.

"Flirty" can be fun. And
speaking of flirting,

I am going for a riding
lesson with Aaron.

- Heading off right now.
- Gotcha.

Have fun.

- I'll just be here...
- You will.

Panning for gold.

Mom, look what I found!

You got one. You're
set for life!

Look at that.

Jake helped me.

He says the key to
everything is patience

and perversiness.

"Perseverance."

- That too.
- Yeah.

Fool's gold.

Jake taught me how to
tell the difference.

Uh-huh.

Oh, guess what?

What?

Aaron gave me a map

marked with every place
there's been a ghost sighting,

and Jake gave me some tips
on how to do a ghost call.

- Listen.
- Oh, you got it.

"Come out, ghosts."

Whoa. That was good.

Jake's way better
at it than I am.

- You know what?
- What?

I'll get him to show you.

- That's okay.
- I'll j... I'll just...

No, we're... I got it.

Show my mom how to
do the ghost call.

Yeah, okay.

Think she can learn this?

Hmm, yeah.

Okay, let's try.

The trick... pull from
your diaphragm, right?

Ready?

Come out, ghosts.

I did it!

- Whoa.
- I'm gonna go show

Noah and Jasmine.

Well, you have a friend
for life now, so...

It's easy. He's a great kid.

Noah, too.

I got lucky.

Yeah, that, or...
they got a good mom.

My diaphragm isn't working.

Will you help me show
Noah and Jasmine?

- Duty calls.
- Yup.

- Stand up here.
- Okay, let's see this.

Rebecca? Wait up!

So...

Jake... what do you
think? He's cute, right?

Yeah, he's definitely... cute.

I'm just super-bummed

you didn't get a chance
to hang out with him more.

I really want you
to get to know him.

Well, I don't need to
be all up in your...

you know... your situation.

Well, I want you all
up in my... situation.

- Okay.
- Yeah, I think I like him.

You just know my
history with men.

It's never really
been that good.

Well, I mean, at least
you haven't dated anyone

that's taken all your money.

Um, yeah, I
have... in college.

Good thing I only
had $40 to my name.

Look, I only pick guys who
are all flair, no substance,

and huge commitment issues.

Jake doesn't seem that way.

Exactly!

He doesn't seem that way,
but who is he, really?

And that's where you come in.

Before I go any
further with this,

I really would love

if you spent the day
with him tomorrow.

No, that's not a good idea.

- Yes, it is!
- No.

I just want what
you had with Shawn.

Cassie...

Something that is real.

And I don't trust myself to
be a good judge of character,

but you get people...

and you know me.

Fine.

I'm gonna go ghost-hunting
with Ollie in the morning,

and then we'll go on
a hike with the kids.

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh... not
just a hike, and no kids.

- Yes. Yes, kids!
- No kids!

It has to be just
the two of you.

- Cassidy...
- Spend the day with him,

and tell me if he is
as good as he seems.

Please?

Please, please?

Come on! I'm not gonna
take no for an answer.

Fine.

Ah! Oh.

Thank you!

I love you so much,

and I knew I could count on you.

There should be a
fort around here

where a cowboy froze to death

in the hard winters of 1802.

How do you know that?

My book.

Oh.

There it is!

Remember... use
your diaphragm.

Okay.

Come out, ghosts.

Oh!

You!

Hi!

Hey, come here.

Hey.

How'd it go?

Find any ghosts?

No.

We checked all the
places on the map,

but we didn't find any, did we?

Ah, bummer.

Can we go again later?

I wan to fix that stick fort.

- Ooh.
- Ghosts are drawn to that.

Yeah. Well, maybe
Noah and Jasmine

might be able to take you.

I have to do some recon
for Auntie Cassidy.

What's "recon"?

Uh, it's just
something to make sure

somebody's not headed
into any danger.

But you know what? Why
don't we go back tomorrow?

I'll check with the front
desk and see if they have

- any hunting...
- Ghost flashlights?

- Yes, those!
- Okay.

Get some good recon, Mom.

I will. Okay, have fun.

- See you.
- Okay.

Good morning.

Morning.

Any idea why she
keeps running off?

Not yet. She's healthy.

Gets along with her
neighbors just fine.

Well fed. Nothin'
in her hooves.

I don't say this often,
but I am stumped.

Huh.

You know, just out of curiosity,

when you find yourself
at a roadblock like that,

do you tend to be the
person who lashes out

or, you know, goes inward, or...

what would you say?

I like to take
things as they come.

Yeah, there's-there's...
there's that.

I mean, life is never
what you expect it to be,

but that's what makes
it interesting, right?

Hmm.

Why do you ask?

Oh, just...

uh, out of c-curiosi...

Just making conversation.

She's beautiful.

She is.

Gentle, too.

So we'll use her today.

I'm sorry. For?

Your sister texted

and said you wanted
to learn to ride.

I mean, that's why
you're here, right?

Right. Learn to ride.

Right.

Yeah! We'll...

Well, it can feel
scary at first, but...

nothing worth having
comes without risk, right?

So, left hand... on the
reins, and the horn,

left foot up in
the stirrup here.

- Right up there.
- Yeah.

- That one.
- I know.

Yup. Yup, put it up.

- Tight jeans.
- Okay, all right!

I guess that's why
you wear loose ones.

Okay, then you hop up,
swing that leg over...

Yeah. Oh...

Oh! Okay. Okay.

- There.
- I am so sorry.

That is, uh, one way
to get on a horse.

Sorry about that.

Okay, we'll take

the beginner's trail... Bonnie
knows what to do, but...

if you feel like
you're in any trouble,

you just holler, okay?

Let's go.

So if I had to pick a moment

that I knew being a cowboy
was my life's calling,

that'd be the one.

Walked up to the horse,
told him I was gonna get on,

and that's where my mom
found me ten minutes later,

just sitting up
on top of a horse

that had thrown

every experienced
rider in the stable...

Calm as can be.

You were only ten?

Mm.

Wow, your mom
must've freaked out.

That is an understatement.

You close?

We are. Were.

She, unfortunately,
is no longer with us.

I'm so sorry.

Thanks.

Passed away a few
years back. Cancer.

But I was able to be
with her when she went.

I'm so glad.

I'm sure you miss her.

I do.

Yeah.

Pull back on the reins!

Whoa. You okay?

- Yeah.
- Whoa.

I don't know. She just
wouldn't slow down.

Something must've spooked
her, I don't know.

Hey, come here.

What?

What?

I'm just tryin' to figure out
how long you been riding for.

What gave me away?

Most new riders would freak out
if their horse took off on them,

but you didn't even blink.

I've... been riding
since I was a kid.

It was sort of my gateway into
the whole "Old West" thing.

I...

Sorry I didn't say something.

I just didn't, and then...
it would be weird if I did,

so I made a judgment call.

To be a damsel in distress?

No, I...!

You know, in my defense,

this whole ruse, okay,
was my sister's idea.

She wanted me to find out

if you were a serial
killer or not, okay?

I am...

not a serial killer.

Is there anything else
your sister wants to know?

Well, I've ruled
out "mommy issues"

and career hang-ups,

so I guess...

that leaves
relationship history.

Mm.

So?

So...

you ever been in love?

Yes.

Oh? Married?

No.

No, my job keeps me on the road,

and even when someone thinks
they're okay with that,

after a while, they're not.

So no one's ever...

made you want to
stay in one spot?

Guess I haven't met
the right girl yet.

Or you're not willing
to compromise.

So... how did I do?

Oh, well, you get
favorable marks,

but I do have one more question.

Mm.

Do you like to dance?

I do.

You do?

That... That's good,

'cause Cassidy loves
to dance, so...

and she's very enthusiastic,
and you two have that, right?

That... Together,
you have that.

Oh... the horse...

Well, I'll be.

I think I know why
Bonnie keeps running off,

and it's not 'cause
anything spooked her.

Wow...

Thought you'd be up early,
working with the stallions,

so I brought you some coffee.

I appreciate it.

That's not the only reason.

I can't stop thinking
about you either.

Shh, shh.

Easy.

Whoa. Whoa.

There you go...

There you go...

Come on. Hup!

There you go.

Aunt Cassidy said you and
my mom found this mustang.

That's right.

Is it hard training
a wild horse?

It's hard, but it's
not impossible.

He's been wild his whole life,

so he just needs to
trust that I'm not trying

to take his freedom
away. Once he does that,

then he'll be able to
come and go, and hopefully

Bonnie won't run off anymore.

You want to try?

Really?

Wouldn't have suggested
it if I didn't mean it.

Come on.

There you go.

Come up in front, so
he can see you coming.

Let him smell you.

There you go.

Hey.

I think you might be a natural.

I'm gonna hand you this rope.

You got it? Hold this one.

Swing it around, just like that.

- Good boy.
- That's it.

Keep that spinning.
Keep him going.

- Go, buddy! Go!
- Yeah, that's it!

Go! Go, buddy.

That's it.

Faster.

You might be a cowboy.

Go, boy!

You got it.

Man, those are some nice
broncs you got here.

It's a shame you won't be
riding one of 'em tomorrow.

Nobody ever rode
a bronc like you.

Yeah, I was pretty glorious,
if I'm being modest.

Hey, you forgot
to close the gate.

Sorry.

That's not like you.

No.

Something on your mind?

It's complicated.

Meaning it involves a woman?

Something like that.

Well, I'm here, if you
want to talk about it.

Welcome to the Mustang
Ranch Stampede Competition!

First one to cross
the finish line

wins the horseshoe!

- Whoo!
- On your mark... get set, go!

And the winner is,
by a nose... Cassidy!

I won!

How do ya like me now, sister?

I won!

- That's debatable.
- Whoo!

Okay.

Yes. Whoo!

Looks like you really
wanted that horseshoe, huh?

Don't be sad, Mom.

You did your best, and
that's what really matters.

- Right?
- Yup. That's...

I'll give you a hand.

I'll give you an "A" for effort.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- Great... oh!
- Whoa, whoa!

- Okay.
- Okay.

The bag's still on. All right.

- You good?
- Yup.

Got it... in the bag.

Jake, have you ever
seen a buffalo before?

Uh-huh. Lots of times.

Noah and I are
applying to U of C,

and their, um, their
mascot is a buffalo.

- Hmm.
- Yeah.

- Hi.
- Hello.

We'll just grab a plate.

Yeah.

I get that Noah needs
his independence,

but U of C, really?
Did you hear that?

- Yeah. Yeah, so?
- Seriously?

Well, Boulder's a
much better school.

What is he thinking?

Uh...

my guess is it has
something to do with a girl

whose name starts
with the letter "J".

- Yeah, I know.
- Noah's... pretty fond of her.

So is she.

Don't you think they're a
little young to be, you know...

Uh, ahem, same age you
were when you met Shawn.

Yeah, so what happens when
she suddenly disappears?

Okay, I'm sure he
will handle it.

Look, I-I know you want
to protect him, okay?

But you can't control
when you fall in love.

- Yes, you can.
- Oh?

- Yes, you can.
- Yeah?

You really can! You know,
if it's not the right time

or not the right person, you
know, you just tell them...

and walk away.

Okay. You seem a
little stressed.

Is this because you
haven't heard about tenure?

No, I haven't
heard about tenure.

Okay.

Oh! Okay, what about
that mysterious stranger

you met in town?

I told you to drop
that! That was nothing.

- Just...
- Okay. "Nothing."

Hi.

Well, that's good
news, because...

I invited Bobby Briggs

to come to the rodeo with us

as your date.

Mom! Why would you do that?

He used to follow me
around like a puppy.

Oh... he's not a puppy
anymore! Heh-heh.

His mom sent me a photo.

His mom sent you a photo?

Yeah, check it out.

And...

his wife died, too.

Great.

We could start a club.

Ooh! What club?

Mom invited Bobby
Briggs to the rodeo.

Oh, Mom, even Rebecca's
not that desperate.

Oh, yes, she is!

And besides, Bobby Briggs
is all grown-up now.

Check him out!

Ho-ho-kay! Bobby is
definitely a hottie.

- Yeah, okay.
- He's not as handsome as Jake.

Okay.

- Pretty good, though!
- Yeah!

Thanks, Mom.

- Oh, great. I will...
- You should try the ribs.

Get a plate and start all over.

Morning, Jake.

Noah.

You're up early.

My mom always tells me

to come to her with whatever...

it's just kind of weird
to talk about feelings

with your mom, you know?

Hoping to get...

I...

really like Jasmine...

And I mean, we've
been dating for, like,

four months now,

and...

I guess I was wondering
how I'm supposed to know.

How you're supposed to know...?

If I love her.

Oh.

Wow.

Well...

in my experience, it's...

not just one thing,
it's the whole package.

So, if she's the first thing

you think about
when you wake up,

and the last thing
you think about

before you go to bed.

If she's easy to talk to,
even easier to listen to...

Her smile...

just cuts through

and makes you want
to be a better man...

Yeah.

I feel all those
things about Jasmine.

Man to man, do you...

do you think I should
tell her I love her?

No.

Man to man,

I think...

you're the only one
who can answer that.

That's wise.

I like it.

- Thanks.
- Any time.

- See you, Jake.
- See ya.

Hey.

I was checking the... uh...

- to make sure...
- Mm-hmm.

So you were here the whole time?

I...

heard every word, yup.

Okay.

All of it, actually.

You gotta stop that whole...

that!

I know what you're
doing. It's...

You've gotta quit
that-that... the eyes.

It's too much!

Hello. Bobby's here.

What? Why aren't you ready?

I'm not going to the
rodeo with Bobby Briggs.

But I promised Jake that
we'd all go cheer him on.

Okay, well, that's good.
You go cheer him on.

Okay.

Listen. Mom is right,

and you need to put
yourself back out there.

No.

You can't even rule out
Bobby before you see him,

and trust me when I
say that he's cute,

he's funny,

and he looks really
good in his jeans.

Oh, yeah.

Are you into Bobby Briggs?

- Because you can... That...
- No!

Seems like you are.

Of course not.

And he's always been
in love with you, so.

Ugh.

Okay, now which hat?

No hats.

Please. Oh, it's too
much, all of it. Just...

'Kay. Don't know
what that's about.

- It's too much!
- Listen.

This is gonna be fun!

We're gonna go to a rodeo,

and then we're going dancing.

- No, don't do that.
- ♪ We're goin' dancing ♪

Oh, wow.

- You gotta stop. It's...
- What do you mean?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

- That... Wow.
- I'm not gonna stop...

Stop!

Until you say yes.

Fine!

- Okay?
- Great.

Please don't tell me these are
the only shoes you brought.

What's wrong with those shoes?

Nothing. If you're going to
a professor convention...

- Okay.
- Where all the professors

- of united professors...
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Will be there, professoring.

Okay, this is your first
date since Shawn...

and you need to
make a statement.

Oh-kay.

We'll see you in five?

Maybe do something...

- Just... Mm-hmm.
- With your hair

and put some deodorant on, or...

Okay.

I'm not dancing!

Becs!

Hey.

- Hello.
- Yeah.

Oh.

Look at you... all grown-up.

Well, I mean...

look at you.

You... did...

you grew up.

- He's a triathlete.
- Oh, not professionally.

It's just something I do
as part of my charity work.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

Hey, how about you?

Me? Well, uh...

I jog... and recycle!

- Ah. It's good to stay healthy.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- I was just talking

to Jake here about a
little side project

I'm trying to get going...

horse therapy for kids!

- Yeah. Yeah, it
turns out - Oh?

Horses help kids with
all kinds of issues,

and, you know, I'm just
such a big fan of this guy.

Six-time bareback
riding champion, right?

Seven, but...

Who's counting?

Ah. Right. How
could I forget Maui?

Listen, I know there's a bus,

but, if you're comfortable
riding with me,

I was hoping we could
catch up on the way there?

Well, I would like that.

Great.

Okay.

Let me get the door for
you. This is me here.

Okay.

I have a really good
feeling about those two.

- Mm.
- Don't you?

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,

to the Mustang Falls Fall Rodeo!

I'll be your MC for the
day. My name is Jake.

It's a pleasure to be here.

Do I look like a real cowboy?

You sure do!

Did you see the magazines?

- Jake's on all of them.
- I see that.

There's Jake.

I'm gonna go say hi.

Oh, Becs, Becs...
do you remember

when Bobby used to
write you poetry?

What was that one called?
It was "Ode to..."

"A Goddess," I think.

Oh, my teenage self apologizes.

I think it's sweet!

Mom, it's starting.
We gotta get in there.

Jake says he's gonna start with
some really cool rope tricks.

Okay, you go and save us a seat.

I'm gonna get us some food
real quick, okay? Go, go, go.

I can help with
that, Ms. Granway.

- Oh, I'd love that.
- Yeah.

- You having fun?
- So much fun.

I'll take one of those.

Hi! I think we're
gonna do six chili dogs

and six lemonades, please.

Thank you so much.

You're getting that for Cassidy?

Uh, yeah. I thought I would.

Jake's really great.

He is.

Noah really likes him.

He said he reminds
him of his dad.

Not in the-the cowboy
way, of course,

just I guess his
demeanor or something.

He said that?

Yeah.

Uh, I guess I could see that.

My mom...

she told me that it's...

it's really hard for
moms to let go, and...

it's probably
extra hard for you,

with everything that's happened.

I just... I really like Noah.

Like, a lot.

But...

if you want him to
go to Boulder, I...

I can talk to him about it.

You would do that?

Yeah, we're not that
far away, realistically,

and I just... I want
him to be happy, so.

Me too.

You're very sweet, Jasmine.

Thank you.

- No worries.
- What's taking so long?

I know. It's here, here, here.
Here, I got that for you.

Oh, thanks.

You can keep the change.

Thank you. Thanks.

That one's for you, please.
Thank you. Thank you.

- Ooh, I like this.
- I know, it's everywhere.

All right!

- Rodeo.
- Let's rodeo!

♪ I have lived a
lot of places ♪

♪ Making money on the run ♪

♪ So home is where
they'll have me ♪

♪ Texas is where I'm from ♪

♪ Back in June and July ♪

♪ Of 1988 ♪

♪ I was born and raised

So... how's everything
been going with Bobby?

What are we thinking?

He's nice.

"Nice"?

He's perfect!

He's good-looking. He's smart.

Oh, he invented this
new climate technology

that everyone's using,

and he wants to use
his money for good.

How do you know all of that?

- He told me at the rodeo.
- Okay.

Oh! Listen. You
vetted Jake for me.

Now I'm gonna return the favor.

No, I really don't
need you to do that.

I'm just gonna do some recon.

Thank you so much!

First round's on me.

You know what, Bobby?

I think it's time you show
me what you're made of.

Oh, ho, ho, I've got some moves!

Let's go.

Yes!

She's... on a mission.

We're gonna start things
off with a classic.

Thank you for
the... the rodeo.

- My boys had a great time.
- Of course.

Do you miss it?

I do.

Feels like a
lifetime ago, but...

Hmm. I bet.

Oh...

She is... enthusiastic.

Yeah, she's got it.

So you gonna see
Bobby again, or...?

Uh...

He's great.

But I...

But what?

Okay, that's enough
chit-chat, you two.

Time to get your butts
on the dance floor!

I had a feeling that was coming.

Well, I'm game if you are.

All right, this next
one is for the couples.

Everybody grab a partner.

- Yeah, we should...
- Yeah.

Been a while since I...

danced with anyone.

Okay.

Give me your hand.

There you go.

- Okay.
- That one, over here.

Yeah.

This goes here.

Mm-hmm.

I think you got this.

- I got it?
- Mm-hmm.

♪ I just let you
take the fall ♪

♪ I don't want to
pay your way again ♪

I'm sorry. I can't. I-I...

I just have a headache. I'm
gonna... I'm gonna head.

I'm fine. You stay. You stay.

Just one sec.

Hey! Rebecca. Wait.

- Cassidy...
- I have some Tylenol.

I don't have a headache!

Okay.

Okay, sorry.

I'm sorry.

Um...

The truth is,

and it-it's silly,
really, and it's not,

and I know that we have always
told each other everything,

and so I feel really weird

that I-I haven't said
anything yet, but I just...

It's okay.

I already know.

I really don't think you do.

Yes, I do.

It's the mysterious
man you met in town...

you can't stop
thinking about him.

You were exactly like
this when you met Shawn...

the second you met him,

every other guy
became invisible.

It's true. It's...

But you need to forget
about him, by the way,

if he hasn't called you by now.

That's his loss.

It's time for Plan B...

Bobby.

Just give him a chance.

Could you imagine both of
us in these relationships?

You and Bobby,
and-and me and Jake?

Unless you don't think
he's right for me.

No.

No, I think...

He is the total package.

I do.

He's, uh...

strong and smart and funny...

and he's...

good with the boys.

Yeah.

Um...

tell Robert and
Jake that I'm sorry.

I just, I...

I promised Ollie

that I would go ghost-hunting
with him in the morning again,

and, um, have fun.

Have fun.

- Okay.
- Okay?

- Okay.
- Okay.

That stallion still here?

I thought you were
gonna open up the gate

and let him run free a spell?

And I did.

He didn't want to go, headed
straight for the barn.

Turns out Bonnie's expecting.

Oh.

I'll be dang. When's she due?

Couple weeks, I'd say.

She's carrying high,

which can make it harder
to see, but still, I...

I don't know how I missed it.

Mm. Wild guess...

there's something, or somebody,

distracted you.

Offer still stands if you
want to talk about it.

Yeah.

It's not you. It's...

Look, you're gonna make
someone very happy.

But...

Hey.

Well, what happened?

Jake broke up with me.

What?

Why? What did he say? What...

He said I'm great and
a lot of fun, and...

anyone would be
lucky to have me.

It's the university!

It's probably about your tenure.

Ugh, not now!

Answer it!

Answer it.

Hello?

Th-This is.

Well, thank you.

Yeah.

Great.

I will... I will be in touch.

Okay.

Thank you so much.

Bye-bye.

What did they say?

Can you tell Ollie I...

will go ghost-hunting
with him this afternoon?

I-I need... I-I need a...

Are you okay?

- I'm-I'm okay. Are you okay?
- I need to fix this.

I need to sort this out. I-I...

Okay.

Everything all
right, Ms. Granway?

Oh, other than

the fact that I feel like

the underside of
a welcoming mat,

just, uh, yeah,
you know, peachy.

It's apple juice.

Mm.

I'm not really a-a
day drinker, you know?

It's just I got a call
about tenure today.

Uh, yeah...

your mother did mention
you've been waiting to hear.

I'm surprised, really, you know,

that I'm having such
a strong reaction.

Oh, I'm not.

To hear her tell it,

you're the best thing that ever
happened to that department.

Exactly!

Making tenure is what I've
been working for my whole life.

So you got tenure?

Yeah, I did.

All right, just to be clear...

your boss called and said,
"Congratulations, Rebecca!

- You..."
- Yeah.

You know,

for the last three
years, since Shawn died,

all I could ever think was
"if I could get tenure,"

you know... the
boys would be set.

We would be okay.

But when I got the call, I felt,

"Is this what I want?

Or is this what
I should want?"

Well, it depends. I
mean, you like the job?

I do! I love my job, yes.

But for the past three years,

I just feel like I've been
going through the motions,

you know, doing what I should.

I wish I was more like Cassidy.

You know, I'd just fly
by the seat of my pants,

do what I want.

I love that about her.
I wish that was me!

But it's not! I'm... I'm this.

And then I come here

and for the first time in
my life, you know, I feel...

alive!

I'm sorry. You probably
have somewhere to be.

This is... I'm just...

it's a lot.

I'm good.

So... what are you gonna do?

I don't know.

I need to talk to Jake.

Do you know where he is?

Ah, you just missed him,

but he'll be back
in a couple hours.

I just asked him to move a
herd to a different pasture.

You mind if I borrow Bonnie?

Jake!

Rebecca?

How did you...?

Aaron told me where to find you.

You broke up with Cassidy?

I did.

Why would you do that?

I think we both know why.

I don't know what to do...

about you, the job...

about any of it!

Maybe we should do something
to take your mind off things.

- Ho.
- Hey.

That was amazing.

Thank you.

Whoa. Hey, you might
just be a natural.

Can you imagine

coming here

with everything that
you own on your back

and trying to make a life?

Yeah. I can.

Can you?

We should get going.

I promised Ollie I would
take him ghost-hunting.

- Let's go.
- Yeah.

Come on. Let's go.

Who's ready to ghost...

Ollie?

"Went ghost-hunting."

Ollie!

Everything okay?

Uh... Ollie went on a
ghost-hunting trip by himself.

He-He left his map,

but I-I visited all the 'X's
along and he's not there.

Do you have any idea where
else he could have gone?

There's an old miner's
cabin I told him about,

when we panned for gold...
few miles down the river.

Okay.

Aaron and I used to
stay there sometimes

when we were on a cattle drive.

How long ago he leave?

I don't know. Maybe an hour?

Then he can't have gotten
far. I'll check it out.

Let's go! Let's go!

Don't worry, we'll find him!

Rebecca!

Hey.

I just spoke to Jake.
He thinks he knows

where he may have gone...
he's on his way there now.

You don't think we have to
look down by the river, do you?

No, no, no, no. He
wouldn't go down there.

He knows not to do
that without an adult.

Yeah, he's good with that stuff.

I'll go to the room, Just
in case he comes back.

Thank you, Jasmine.

Actually, Mom, can you
go to the Biscuit Room,

- in case he comes back there?
- Of course.

Uh, Noah, why don't
you wait at the barn?

I'll go to the stick fort,
maybe he shows up there.

I'll come with you. We
can look around the area

and make sure he
didn't get lost.

Okay, great.

I can't believe
this is happening.

I should have never
taken my eyes off of him.

Hey, this isn't
anyone's fault. Okay?

He's just a kid going
on an adventure.

- He's gonna be okay.
- I hope so.

- Hi.
- Any sign of him?

No, not at the stick forts.

You don't think he's playing
hide-and-go-seek, do you?

No, he would've put
it in the note, but...

I forgot how much he used
to love to play that game.

He'd hide so well,
he'd be gone for hours.

Mm.

One time, I found
him in the dryer.

- What?
- I-It wasn't on. Don't worry.

Okay.

He'd hide all over the place.

The harder to find, the better.

Mm.

That weird little
nook behind the heater

in the dining room?

The neighbor's tree.

I remember that. Yeah.

We had to get your
father to help find him.

Dad always knew
where to find him.

He did.

Mom?

Ollie!

Whoa. Whoa.

Caught up with him just
before he got to the cabin.

We did the ghost call,
but we couldn't find any.

Where have you been?

Where did you go?

You can't run off like that.
I was worried sick about you.

I wanted to see Dad.

Oh, sweetheart.

I thought if I
could see a ghost,

one day, it would be possible
to see Dad again, too.

Yeah.

I'll go...

let everyone know he's safe.

Thank you.

Come on, come on.

Sweetie...

this might be a little
hard to hear, okay?

We're not gonna
see your dad again.

Okay? At least, um...

not in this lifetime.

But that doesn't mean

that he's not still with us.

Noah...

sweetie...

when you smile,

I swear, it could be your dad.

It's true.

And, Ollie, my sweetie.

You have his spirit.

You do!

You live your life like

everything, and everyone,
in it is a gift,

and that, sweetie, is a
rare, special quality,

and you got that from him.

And there isn't a moment

that I don't wish he
was still with us...

but just because
we can't see him...

you know, I like
to think that...

he can see us,

that he's watching us and
everything that we do.

I mean, I...

I can kinda feel
him at my games.

Yeah!

I once couldn't think of
an answer for my math test,

and then it just
came into my head.

Was that Dad?

Oh, that sounds like him, huh?

Can he hear us, too?

Yeah, baby.

Can I say goodbye?

Yeah, sweetie, you
can say goodbye.

Bye, Dad.

I'm glad I got your spirit.

Yeah, you did.

I miss you, Dad.

Love you.

Bye, Shawn.

I love you, boys.

Okay?

I love you so much.

Jake?

Yeah.

Hi.

Hey.

- How's Ollie?
- He's good.

Jasmine and Noah built
him a blanket fort,

so he's in heaven.

I just wanted to...
thank you again...

for today.

And, um, oh, I wanted
to bring you this.

It's a thank-you letter
for finding Ollie.

No idea what he was
carrying around with him...

and, uh, for Noah, as well,

for being someone he
could talk to that, um...

wasn't his mom.

You wrote me a letter?

You don't have to read that now.

It's basically everything that
I just told you. It's just...

- Mm-hmm.
- I bring stationery

with me wherever I go,
so it... you know what?

Actually, I'm just...

- regretting that...
- Whoa!

You didn't say this part.

"And, finally,
thank you for today,

for understanding
that I couldn't talk

about whatever it is

that's going on
between the two of us.

I don't know where
things will go,

'cause I'm going back."

To Boulder.

"If I take the tenure
position, you'd have to give up

all this open space

and come to the city,

and I can't ask
you to do that."

You've been a cowboy
since you were ten.

You belong out here.

"The problem between
us is we're...

just too different."

Yeah.

You really believe that?

Rebecca...

Hey.

Tell me that I'm wrong.

Oh, my god.

Cassidy... Cassidy.

- I can't believe this.
- Cassidy.

Wait, Cassidy.

Stop. Stop!

You know, I came
here to thank Jake

for helping you find Ollie,

and this is how I find out

that something's been
going on with you two?

Nothing's going on!
Nothing's going on.

We were just talking.

Was he the mystery
guy you met in town?

- Wow.
- I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I don't even know why I
didn't see this sooner.

You two are perfect
for each other.

Listen...

You know, it just
doesn't even matter.

It never would have worked out.

Cassidy...

You didn't tell me the truth.

We are sisters,
and we're supposed

to tell each other everything.

That's what hurts!

I know. I know.

I can't even be
around you right now!

Listen, ju...

Mom, Grandma got me a harmonica!

I see that.

That's... great.

Sounds good, buddy.

Mm-hmm. Good one.

Yep. You're welcome.

Have you seen Cassidy?

She said she was gonna go as
far away from you as possible

without actually leaving.

What happened?

Um... L-Long story.

Oh, okay.

- Hey, Mom.
- Hi!

Hey.

How was stargazing?

It was so cool, Ms. Granway.
I mean, Jake was right.

There are so many stars,
it's-it's humbling.

- Mm.
- It sorta reminds you

how small we are
compared to the universe,

but also makes you feel, like,
"Wow, I'm a part of all this."

That sounds like something that
belongs on a college essay.

Speaking of college,
I've been thinking.

If you two want to go
to college together,

I won't stand in your way.

Seriously?

Seriously. You're 17.

I don't want you to be
afraid to live your life

because you're worried about me.

So...

if you love Jasmine...

- Wait. What?
- Mom!

I'm sorry.

You-You... You love me?

Yeah.

Yeah, I...

I love you.

I love you, too.

Yep?

Hey. Uh, you coming
to the campfire?

I'll think about it.

Did I ever tell you about Annie?

No, I don't think so.

Annie was, um...

sunshine and light.

Like a song you couldn't
get out of your head.

She ran a little store up
in Johnson County, Wyoming.

When I was in the area,

even if I didn't need anything,
I'd stop by just to see her.

Then, a few years into
that dance, she says,

"If you're gonna make a
move, you best make it now.

I'm not waiting around forever."

When was this?

30 years ago.

So, I tried...

I moved in with
her and everything,

but, after 'bout a year,

I told her I just
loved the land too much

to stay in one place.

And?

She said she saw it coming.

She, uh,

took the bandana off
from around her neck,

and gave it to me
"to remember" her by.

Then wished me luck.

You ever regret your decision?

I try not to think about this
life in terms of regrets.

It's just choices.

I made mine. I live with it.

But not a day goes by I
don't think about her.

If you think you
love this woman...

you need to ask yourself...

"Is a handkerchief enough?"

I'll see you at the campfire.

Hi.

Hey.

How was town?

I saw Bobby, and he
sends his regards.

I know you're still mad.

And you're right... I
should have told you.

And I'm really
sorry, I really am.

I will never do that
again. It's just...

Cassidy, I really...

I didn't know how I felt.

Honestly.

And now?

Well...

it's complicated.

Right?

Yeah.

I got you some s'mores stuff...

even though there's no
s'mores in the Old West.

Ah, who cares?

They're delicious.

- They really are delicious!
- They really are.

I'm so sorry.

I love you.

I love you, too.

So don't be mad...

I... might be seeing Bobby.

What?

When? How?

Since he was up for grabs,

I thought, "Why not?"

And, you know, it turns
out I was right...

he's... he's actually
really great.

I'm happy for you.

Thank you.

Bobby?

Good. That's really good.

Hey!

Hey.

Looks like you're
all ready to go.

Yeah.

Gonna miss my tiny
little Biscuit Room.

All my things
smelling like flour.

So... I talked to Jake.

- Cassidy...
- Uh-uh-uh. Believe it or not,

I know how to be subtle,

and I asked him to sign
this magazine for you.

I thought, whatever he
wrote might give you

a window into what
he was feeling.

"To my...

tough and tender cowgirl."

It's... cute.

So you're just gonna leave?

Anyone who uses
the word "tender"

is clearly interested!

Cassidy, I am who I am, and
he is clearly who he is.

Okay? It's not gonna work.

Mom! Tell Rebecca
to go talk to Jake!

Go talk to Jake.

Okay? Clearly, he's
in love with you.

Even if that were true...

It is!

A mother knows.

Okay?

Listen. Ever since Shawn died,

you've been living for
everyone but yourself.

Okay? You need to tell
Jake how you feel.

We're all rooting
for the two of you.

You deserve to be happy.

I want you to be happy.

I... I don't even
know where he is.

Well, he headed up
the Big Rock Trail.

Yeah. Aaron's got Bonnie all
saddled up, ready to ride.

Wow! You... really
had this worked out.

Yeah. It's been,
like, a whole thing.

Just go!

Come on!

Go.

- What?
- Go. Now.

Okay.

I really don't like you two.

- We love you!
- We love you!

- We make a good team, Mom.
- We sure do.

- We should take it on the road.
- Okay, honey.

Let's go.

Hi...

Hi.

Um...

I like you, Jake.

A lot, and, um...

I never thought that I could...

feel like this again.

I never thought that I would.

And...

and ever since Shawn died...

well, I've been
wearing a lot of hats,

and you literally have
handed me three more hats,

which is good,

because...

I have never felt more alive.

And my boys love you.

And I knew,

if I left without
telling you how I feel,

I would regret it for
the rest of my life.

And I know that a girl
has never made you

want to stay in one place...

but I was hoping

that, um...

uh... maybe...

like...

I could be that girl.

Well, I've never

answered to

anything or anyone

other than myself.

I've never stayed in one
place longer than a season.

You know, I...

I sleep under the stars
and chop my own firewood.

I love this life.

Yeah.

Yeah, no, I...

I get it.

I spoke to Bobby.

He's, uh...

He's serious about the
horse-therapy thing.

It's in Boulder.

So...

if I had to choose

between a life with you

and a life without you...

it's no choice at all.

No.

My hat...
