When Calls The Heart (2014) s13e07 Episode Script
In a Jam
1
Previously on When Calls the Heart
Right now, in this
moment, we can just be.
I like that.
Does that mean you're going to
marry my mama, Mountie Nathan?
Um
Look into my eyes.
This is the only evidence you need.
Edie, I would love to
introduce you to my brilliant,
talented new friend
Fernando.
So the transformer started the fire.
Toby, Cooper, you're no
longer under investigation.
- Praise be!
- [CELEBRATING]
[ELIZABETH] I've been
thinking about storms.
How they roll in.
Tear through.
Sometimes changing a whole
landscape in a single day.
Trees uprooted, lives upturned.
Dreams derailed.
But disaster, of course,
brings opportunity, as well.
Please. This way.
Another few minutes, okay?
What seems like irreparable damage
can make way for new growth.
And before you know it, things grow back
even stronger than they were before.
Minnie, this looks amazing.
Thank you.
But somewhere, the landscape
still carries the memory of the storm.
For all that upheaval must exact a toll.
Even on the best of us.
I know the storms I've weathered
have left their mark on me, too,
making me who I am today,
and preparing me for the next storm.
[KNOCKING]
But whatever it brings, I know
that, with Nathan at my side,
together we can face anything.
♪
Well, if the lesson is about bees,
shouldn't the honey
come from, a beehive?
That's the problem.
I love what bees teach
us about community.
But I don't love bees.
[LAUGHS]
Good morning, Ned, ladies.
Good morning, Minnie.
How can I help you?
I know this is an unusual
ask, but would it be possible
to take back all the
jam you haven't sold yet?
Oh, you're welcome to
it, but there's not much.
We're down to these five jars.
Folks love that blackberry.
- Only five left?
- Mmhm.
Oh, dear.
Minnie, what's wrong?
Angela's been sharing my jam
with her friends at Schwartzman
and one of her classmates
gave some to her parents
who own the Aislyn Hotel in Hamilton.
And they've just asked me
to stock all their breakfast tables.
That's wonderful!
Congratulations. Terrific news.
Yes, it is. It is good news.
Except they need 500
jars by tomorrow morning.
Oh my.
That does put you in a bit of a jam.
Sorry.
Well, I was hoping that maybe
if there was enough here,
but I can't make 500 jars in one day.
I don't have enough fruit
or sugar or even jars.
Well, let me go and see
what I've got in the back.
Oh, thank you.
How can we help?
That's so kind.
But honestly, now that we
don't need to pay that lawyer,
I think I'll just let this one go.
It's too much.
You will do no such thing!
Five hundred jars by tomorrow?
[SNAPS FINGERS] Piece of cake.
Actually, we'd have to get
it on the 4:17 train today
so it's there by tomorrow morning.
Well, then I guess it's settled.
- We're helping!
- [LAUGHS]
Church is over.
I'm sure plenty of folks
would be happy to help out.
Oh, no. I'd hate to ask
anyone to give up their Sunday.
Minnie
After everything your family
has been through this year,
everyone will want to help.
And take it from me.
A woman can never have too
many business opportunities.
It'll be a jam-making party.
Ooh, a jamboree!
- Oh. That's catchy.
- Mmhm.
Here's a start.
And I've got a whole new load
of sugar that just came in.
Oh. Ned, thank you so much.
Well, then, let's make some jam.
Woo hoo!
Wow, that is quite the
lineup out there for a Sunday.
Dr. Carter covers two
towns now since the fire.
And look who's here.
Hi, LJ.
- Hi, Lily.
- Sorry.
Good morning, young man.
We're almost ready for you.
My mom and I are going to a jamboree.
A jamboree?
We are helping Minnie make
500 jars of jam by 4:00 today.
Auntie Faith, can we go, too?
Oh!
Sweetie, I've got a lot
of patients out there.
Well, we can bring her.
Come on down.
I'm sure Mrs. Canfield
would love the extra help.
Well, if you wouldn't mind.
Un-huh.
Can you come to Auntie Faith?
[SIGHS]
Listen, as soon as I'm
done with my patients,
I'll come join you.
It seems no one told those
mean old coughs and earaches
it's a Sunday.
Everyone needs Auntie Faith's help.
I know.
Hey, go have fun and I'll
see you as soon as I can.
Come on.
All right, Mr. LJ.
Let's get you all set
up for the day, hmm?
Oh!
And Dog, too.
[LAUGHS]
[LEE HUMMING]
Fernando's blueprints?
Uh, yes. Yes, indeed they are.
Small world, huh?
Hiring Edie's ex-fiancée
to do the rebuild.
I didn't know, by the
way, when I hired him.
I hope that's not going
to be a problem for you.
Why would it be a problem?
I like him, too.
Just curious, though.
How did you know about
Fernando and Edie?
I am married to Rosemary.
Rest assured, I am fine
with him being here.
More than fine.
More than fine.
That's very mature of you,
considering that he's, uh,
smart and talented and charismatic
and so handsome.
I'm fine, Lee.
Okay. All right. Terrific.
Say, have you, uh,
have you lost a little
bit of weight, by the way?
No, though I did lose the vest.
That's what it is. It's the vest.
You've, uh, you've de-vested.
Divested.
It is the '20s.
I thought I'd loosen up my style.
Ah, yes, because it's the '20s.
Of course.
Either way, you look good, my friend.
Christopher.
Rancher friend of mine said
he saw a scarlet tanager
out in Grayson's Notch.
You want to go have a look at it?
- Christopher?
- What?
[SIGHS]
[STUTTERING] Mr. Whitaker called.
Uh, I'm not sure he
buys that I've been sick.
Probably putting too
much thought into that.
We can go for a walk, look at the bird
and take your mind off it.
I-I can't.
Nathan needs me to show him
where I buried the transformer.
If I can remember.
Look, you'll get through this.
They put it in the paper?
No wonder Whitaker was grilling me.
What did you tell him?
Nothing. I played dumb, but it-
it just felt like he was onto me.
No wonder.
Look, Bill-Bill and
Nathan have your back.
It's gonna be fine.
Let's-let's get you something to eat.
No, Dad. I'm sorry. I have to leave.
Nathan's waiting for me.
All right. LJ and Lily,
why don't you help with the labels?
Okay, Mama.
Come on. We'll go set up in the cafe.
Thanks, Allie.
So between you and me,
do you think we can
actually pull this off?
I'm a newswoman, Elizabeth.
The deadline is my news.
Speaking of which, I would
love to meet my next deadline
with the real story about
this fire investigation.
- And I would love to read it.
- Mm-hmm.
Don't be coy.
Have you heard about any
big breakthroughs? Hmm?
Oh, look, there's Nathan!
Why don't I ask him for some
confidential police information
so I can tell my friend, the reporter?
Why don't you?
Because it's confidential.
[EXASPERATED SIGH]
- Hi.
- Hello again.
- You miss me?
- Always.
What's all this?
You seem pretty busy for a Sunday.
We are turning Minnie
into a jelly magnate.
- Where are you headed?
- Uh, I'm meeting someone.
It's part of the investigation.
We're heading over to
Don't-don't tell me.
I don't want to accidentally
spill anything to Rosemary.
Mm. Stay strong.
Hey, uh, tonight, when I'm back, dinner?
Allie's been asking
for chicken fricassee,
which I hope is French for "winging it".
[LAUGHS]
How about I help?
Then, if it goes right or wrong,
we can both be responsible.
I like the sound of that.
Thanks for doing this.
Yeah.
So how are you feeling?
Like I want to get this over with.
Well, Bill's filing charges
against Pioneer Electric
this afternoon, so hang in there.
Whitaker called.
My dad thinks I'm overreacting,
but I swear he knows.
Well, he won't know for sure
until he reads about
it in the complaint.
So I'm in it?
In the evidence section, yeah.
But Whitaker is the one
that's breaking the law.
He put you in a compromising position.
You're doing the right
thing here, Christopher.
Remember that.
Now come on, let's go
find that transformer.
Now the fruit gets
washed and mashed here,
then it goes to the kitchen to cook,
and then back out
again to add the sugar.
Well, we've got the children
helping with the labels
in the café, so as soon
as the jars are filled,
they'll be ready to go.
It does seem to be coming together.
Mmhm.
Minnie, what is it?
It's just that after the last few weeks,
it's still hard to trust
that things will work out.
Minnie everything is
going to be just fine.
We're in this together, right?
- Mm-hmm.
- Yes. Yes, thank you.
Well, I better check on that jam.
It gets temperamental
if I ignore it too long.
- All right.
- All right.
Um, 32 quart batches of jam and
four cups of sugar per quart.
All right, well, I'm glad
we have a schoolteacher here
doing the jam math!
[LAUGHING]
Careful! Coming through!
First pot, ladies, ready for sweetening.
Let's get this sugar train rolling.
[LAUGHS] Woo woo!
Chug-a-chug-a-chug-a-chug! [LAUGHING]
I feel like I'm making wine in Italy.
[BOTH] Italy?
Oh, Italy, Italy!
Or
what if our next adventure was uh,
a little closer to home?
What'd you have in mind?
Well, I was thinking maybe
we could start a family.
Oh, gosh. I-I thought you were gonna say
camping in Canmore.
- There's a bee.
- Oh!
[BUZZING]
Oh, did you get stung?
It's fine.
I'm immune to bees.
What was I saying?
More berries.
Ooh!
Miss Martell.
Hey, there.
Hello, Governor Bouchard or
should I call you "champ"?
You were quite the
force to be reckoned with
at the poker tournament.
Well, your old friend,
Fernando, was no slouch either.
I saw the two of you
getting along famously.
We do have one shared common cause.
The rebuilding of Benson Hills.
Still, it's very generous of you.
Not at all.
I'm enjoying Fernando's joie de vivre.
What?
Lucas Bouchard
I believe this is the
first time I am seeing you
out and about town without a vest on.
Well, the year is 1922.
I thought I might try
something that Oh!
Oh, that looks like
Mrs. McCormick's horse.
He's been missing since the fire.
Oh, I have to catch him!
I'll-I'll help you.
[NEIGHING]
Fernando, go after that horse!
We're right behind you!
♪
Minnie!
Come taste the first batch.
Oh, yes.
The moment of truth.
Well?
I was worried it might
not work in a big batch,
but it's perfect.
- Oh!
- Woo hoo!
Now all I need to do is keep us on time.
Minnie
I bequeath you my clipboard.
Oh, my.
For me? I'm honored.
A woman with a clipboard
can build an empire.
Oh.
Those boys need to bring
those berries to the wash tub.
Minnie, you've got the clipboard.
[ELIZABETH CHUCKLES]
Cooper! Toby!
To the wash tub. Our stompers are ready.
Sorry, Mama. We had to
fight off Jed's sheep.
Turns out sheep really love berries.
And that makes 500 and change.
- And change?
- To account for breakage.
I brought just about
every jar I could find.
- Ned Yost.
- Hmm?
Did you take this from my nightstand?
Yeah, there was just
some-some junk in it.
Junk?
This is our honeymoon jar
from the breakfast tray.
The apricot preserves?
Oh, right, yes, of course. The
apricot preserves. Yes, yes.
That junk,
that was our Lake Louise train stubs.
Our champagne cork?
The button that popped off your shirt
after that second dessert.
You didn't throw it out, did you?
No, no, no.
I-I-I know right where I put it.
What does it matter?
It may as well stay in the trash
since that's all it is to you.
Oh, no.
Sweetheart.
[EXHALES]
Well, how was I supposed to know?
[MOLLY] Just a few more patients and
I can go make jam with Lily.
At least we'll have a
little time together.
She's so lucky to have you.
No, I am the lucky one.
[GASPS] The bandages!
I re-ordered them yesterday.
- And the
- Iodine? Also in the cabinet.
Molly, you keep this place humming.
[CHUCKLES]
It's like you've been at it for years.
That means more than you know.
Faith, there's something
that I wanted to
[KNOCKING]
Oh. Sorry.
It's all right. It can wait.
[SIGHS]
That beautiful week at Lake
Louise was the beginning
of our whole life together.
Well, it just goes to show
you can't trust anyone
else with your treasures.
I got a label on my elbow.
You'll recover.
All right, my little label lickers,
let's go.
Mama!
Oh, hi, honey bear.
Oh. [CHUCKLES]
- Let's go!
- Oh!
Oh, you little rascals!
You're supposed to be working.
We sure showed those berries who's boss.
Oh yeah, we did.
Mike, are you okay?
Why? Do I not seem okay?
Your-your eye
My heart is beating a little fast.
Is it too fast?
You definitely got stung by that bee.
I think I got stung by that bee.
Okay.
We have to get you to the infirmary.
What? That's crazy. I'm immune to bees.
That's definitely not a thing.
Oh, I think it got my
tongue a little bit.
I don't see a path.
Are you sure this is right?
Yeah. No, I [CLEARS THROAT]
I pulled off somewhere around here.
That fancy watch of yours
have a compass in it?
I bought it after the promotion.
Foolish.
You had high hopes. There's
nothing wrong with that.
And you're doing the right thing.
Even though this is hard,
it says something about who you are.
- Who I am?
- Yeah.
Who I am is a guy who
couldn't stand up to his boss,
even though he knew what
he was asking was wrong.
How am I supposed to
face Rachel after that?
Rachel knows what kind of man you are.
I bet you a nickel
she stays by your side.
How can you be so sure?
Oh, believe it or not, I've
made a few mistakes in my life.
Whoa, look out!
[GROANS]
Christopher.
Christopher!
Coming through!
Another batch close behind.
Thank you, Joseph.
Oh, how are we doing on time?
Uh, if we're gonna make it,
we're gonna have to speed things up.
Aye, aye, Captain.
Oh, make no mistake.
Minnie is the captain of this ship.
As you were.
It's so nice to see the
Canfields smiling again.
Indeed.
And if Toby and Cooper are
no longer under investigation,
it must mean the
Mounties have a new lead.
Cough twice if I'm right.
Strictly on background, huh?
- Rosemary?
- Mmhm?
- Even if I knew
- Yes.
which I don't.
I wouldn't cough, sneeze or hiccup.
Here's another batch of forest berry.
Thank you, Cooper.
This one's all finished.
Perhaps it was an arsonist.
Someone with a dastardly
plot of vengeance.
Rosemary, a new Mountie
report will be out soon.
Just wait.
It's coming fast and furious now!
I'm sorry.
- Thanks for the work, ladies.
- Mm-hmm.
I'm sorry, I don't mean
to put pressure on you.
I just hate the idea of the
Benson Hills Beetle scooping me.
They're working out of a
barn, for goodness sake'.
Meanwhile, my best
friend has a direct line.
I'm sorry.
My best friend is also very
ethical, which I admire.
Thank you.
[ROSEMARY LAUGHS]
[HORSES WHINNY]
It's okay, Carino.
[HORSE SNORTS AND WHINNIES]
That's right.
[WHINNY]
Nice and calm.
There's nowhere left to run, my friend.
[EDIE] Poor thing's been lost for weeks.
He's probably terrified.
You're safe.
[HORSE WHINNIES]
Tranquilo, caballito.
You're-you're so close.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[SNORTS AND WHINNYING]
If I may, Lucas?
Please.

Bellamente, Nando.
He just needed a loving touch.
Thank you.
Thank you, both of you.
Mrs. McCormick will be so pleased.
Of course.
It was our pleasure.
Horses can't resist him.
Just think
all those hotel guests
starting their day
spreading Minnie's jam on their toast.
- Only if we make that train.
- Mm.
But if they leave soon, we'll be fine.
Just don't tell them that.
We want to keep the pressure on.
All right, let's go! Let's go!
Oh, it's a brand new Minnie.
- Power of the clipboard.
- Mm-hmm
[LAUGHS]
Oh, there's my hubby.
Hey, sweetheart. I'm just
going to try some jam.
Ooh. And? Hmm?
- Ooh.
- What?
Um
A bit tart.
- It's not right.
- Mm-mm.
Um, I'm-I'm gonna go.
No! No, no, no.
Elizabeth!
What?
We missed putting sugar
in one of the batches.
What? How could that happen?
I don't know! I don't know!
We measured it all out, but
if these two are still here, then
Then there must be a lot of sour jam
somewhere on that truck.
- Wait!
- Stop!
What? What's wrong?
Well, we were
Someone must have
And there was a bit of a mix
up, and some of the jars were
- They don't have sugar!
- But we'll find them, maybe
- Of course we will.
- How many jars?
- One batch.
- Forty.
Oh, no!
Minnie, I'm so sorry.
We're just gonna have
to taste all of them.
No, it's not your fault.
It was too much to ask of everyone.
Minnie, no.
No, we are going to get
that jam on that train!
Well, now, how could we possibly
Listen up, everyone!
Get those crates off of the truck.
Operation Sourpuss starts now!
How can I help?
Round up all the spoons
and bring any sour jam
- over to the sugar table.
- Got it.
[HICKAM] Oh, wow!
That is some fancy medicine.
I don't even feel the sting at aaaaaall.
When it wears off, that's
when you change the bandage.
Will do. Thank you.
Mei?
This sting has me thinking
about my mortality.
Life is short.
We have to take that trip to Italy.
We have to have those kids.
Picture it.
Five little Hickam juniors
- Five?!
- Wandering around a piazza.
Let's talk about this later, Mike, okay?
Molly, I'm just gonna finish the notes,
and then do you mind?
Oh, of course. Go be with Lily.
- I'll close up.
- Thank you.
[CARRIAGE RUMBLES PAST]
There you go.
Hey, Molly! We need some help out here!
Oh. Oh, my goodness!
What happened?
He fell down an embankment
and hit his head on a rock.
Christopher, can you hear me?
[MUMBLES]
It's Dr. Faith Carter.
You're at the infirmary.
- [CHRISTOPHER GROANS]
- You're gonna be okay.
Do you think you can walk?
Yeah.
I'll go prep the exam table.
Thank you, Molly.
Easy, easy.
There you go.
Nathan, your side!
That that looks bad!
I-I'm fine.
Christopher is the one that needs help.
♪
Ugh. No.
Mmm.
Thank you.
Ooh.
No.
Thirty-nine sour jars tasted,
sweetened and resealed.
One more to go.
Mm.
Oh!
This is it, right here. Number 40!
Oh!
- Here's the lid.
- All right, I'll take it.
No offense, Minnie, but I think
I'm done with jam for a while.
I understand.
Thank you, everyone.
Okay, are we good to go?
All right.
Oh, no. It's too late.
No, no, Minnie.
- We're almost loaded.
- [LEE] Yeah.
Even if we make it,
we still have to get
the crates on the train.
Minnie, Minnie, I will
cut through Clarks' field.
You said you wanted this.
You can't give up now.
Come on.
Come on, Ned, let's go.
- [NED] Coming!
- Oh!
[NED] Thank you, thank you.
- [JOSEPH] You're driving.
- [NED] Yep.
[Joseph There you go.
We're gonna need a miracle.
One miracle coming up.
[FAITH] Henry.
How is he?
He's okay.
He's just resting.
What's with all of the
Laceration required a few stitches.
It looks like more than a few stitches.
Well, he also has a mild
concussion, a few bruised ribs.
But he's going to be fine, Henry.
He can even go home later today,
as long as he doesn't
develop any new symptoms.
All right. Thank you, Faith.
Mmhm.
You too, Nathan? What-what happened?
We were run off the road.
By who?
The driver had his face covered.
I got the plate, though.
Every constable between
here and Union City
is looking for a black sedan.
It's Whitaker, wasn't it?
The timing speaks for itself.
Let us handle this, Henry.
If Whitaker and Pioneer Electric
had anything to do with it,
we'll hold them accountable in court.
[ELIZABETH] Nathan?
Oh! Oh, I came as soon as I heard.
- Are you
- I'm-I'm okay.
Oh. Thank goodness.
And Christopher?
Oh. He's good. He's
on the mend, thank you.
Oh, I'm so sorry, Henry.
If there's anything I can do.
Are you in pain?
Oh, this is the least of my worries.
I'm gonna catch whoever did this.
You'll be okay, son.
Mm.
Oh, thank goodness.
They don't want me talking, Dad.
They don't want me talking.
With chocolate, just
the way you like it.
Elizabeth said you had fun today.
I'm sorry I couldn't be there.
It's okay. I know you're busy.
Is that Dog?
Can I see, please?
Mm.
Did LJ say you could borrow Dog?
Sweetheart, why would you take
something that isn't yours?
It's not fair.
LJ and Dog had to see
you more than I do.
Oh, Lily.
I missed a lot more than
making jam, didn't I?
♪
Minnie.
Well?
You said we needed a miracle
and we got it.
The train was delayed 10 minutes.
[GLEEFUL YELP]
It's all right.
It's over.
You got us through
all of it.
We did it, didn't we?
You saw our boy today.
He's back because of
you, because you believed.
Oh.
- But, Joseph
- Mm-hmm.
I never want to feel like that again.
I know.
We almost lost everything.
Perhaps Rosemary was right.
We should use this as an opportunity.
What do you mean?
I want us to have something
no one can take from us.
So we should use the money from the jam
to buy up Bill's half of the café.
Oh.
- Hmm?
- Yeah.
I like the sound of that.
- You know, I was thinking
- Mm.
we should call it "Canfield's".
Mm.
What? You don't like it?
Who makes the biscuits and the muffins
and the gooey butter cake?
It's Minnie's café.
No, we built it all
together as a family.
True.
But as an entrepreneur.
[LAUGHS]
You have to think
about how things sound.
And at the end of the day,
"Minnie's"
is cuter.
Mm.
[KNOCKING]
I believe someone's missing a Dog?
Oh my goodness. LJ thought it was lost.
He'll be so relieved.
Can we talk?
Then she said LJ and Dog
spend more time with me than she does.
Oh, Lily.
It's my fault.
The clinic is so important
but she needs me too.
Still, you can't exactly
turn your patients away.
She's too young to understand that.
[SIGHS]
I feel stuck.
Well, first of all,
you need to have at
least one day off a week.
We'll figure that out.
I know, I am working on that.
But also,
you're always going to feel
like you're compromising.
It's just part of the deal.
I remember those first years with LJ.
Some nights I'd realize
I'd taught all day,
cooked dinner, given him a
bath, put him to bed, and
and I hadn't really been with him.
Some nights, after I tuck Lily in,
I hear her whisper to her pillow.
It's like she's trying to
tell it everything she wished
she could have told me during the day.
- Oh.
- Oh.
My heart.
Oh, Elizabeth, why is this so hard?
I used to think that love
meant being everywhere at once.
But LJ knows that even
when we're not together,
he's always in my heart.
We give what we can and
hope that when they grow up,
they know we did the best we could.
I still wish I could
be everywhere at once.
Well
let's start by getting
you next Sunday off.
Oof! We'll need to scrub everything
before putting it back on the shelf.
I will do it. I will do it tonight.
Florence, I've been
thinking about your jar
Oh, Ned. It's fine.
I know those things
don't mean as much to you.
I-I shouldn't have fussed.
I know this won't make up for it, but
What on earth?
Oh. Yes.
The first time we took a walk together,
you were wearing a
beautiful green velvet hat.
And the wind came up and
took it right off your head.
And I did not help so I
could watch you chase it.
Oh.
Oh, uh
Oh.
You once baked a pie
that was so delicious,

Good evening, Governor.
Hello, Edie.
Well, Bucky is home safe and sound.
Mrs. McCormick actually
blushed when she heard
that the Governor had
a hand in catching him.
I think you're giving
me far too much credit.
That was Fernando that wooed
that horse into submission.
I think we all played our part.
The vest.
It's back.
Old habits die hard.
I guess that's why
they call them habits.
Like dinner, perhaps?
You feel like joining me?
Maybe a poker game for dessert?
I have an early morning.
I have several contracts I
still need to get through.
But thank you for
bringing me the good news.
Of course.

you know that there's nothing
between Fernando and me anymore.
Right?
Of course.
Okay.

a good time up there.
That or the cavalry just arrived.

I'm exhausted.
So you made your train on time?

the only thing I could
think about was you three.

would you
Would I look after Allie?
I'd do more than that.

I'm sorry I took Dog.
I won't do it again.
It's okay.
Dog told me he had a good time with you.
He did?

Of course. Let's go, LJ.

He's done.
He doesn't want to help

How can we help?
That's so kind.

have you lost a little
bit of weight, by the way?
No, though I did lose the vest.

again to add the sugar.

If Whitaker and Pioneer Electric
had anything to do with it,
we'll hold them accountable in court.
[ELIZABETH] Nathan?
Oh! Oh, I came as soon as I heard.
- Are you
- I'm-I'm okay.
Oh. Thank goodness.
And Christopher?
Oh. He's good. He's
on the mend, thank you.
Oh, I'm so sorry, Henry.
If there's anything I can do.
Are you in pain?
Oh, this is the least of my worries.
I'm gonna catch whoever did this.
You'll be okay, son.
Mm.
Oh, thank goodness.
They don't want me talking, Dad.
They don't want me talking.
With chocolate, just
the way you like it.
Elizabeth said you had fun today.
I'm sorry I couldn't be there.
It's okay. I know you're busy.
Is that Dog?
Can I see, please?
Mm.
Did LJ say you could borrow Dog?
Sweetheart, why would you take
something that isn't yours?
It's not fair.
LJ and Dog had to see
you more than I do.
Oh, Lily.
I missed a lot more than
making jam, didn't I?
♪
Minnie.
Well?
You said we needed a miracle
and we got it.
The train was delayed 10 minutes.
[GLEEFUL YELP]
It's all right.
It's over.
You got us through
all of it.
We did it, didn't we?
You saw our boy today.
He's back because of
you, because you believed.
Oh.
- But, Joseph
- Mm-hmm.
I never want to feel like that again.
I know.
We almost lost everything.
Perhaps Rosemary was right.
We should use this as an opportunity.
What do you mean?
I want us to have something
no one can take from us.
So we should use the money from the jam
to buy up Bill's half of the café.
Oh.
- Hmm?
- Yeah.
I like the sound of that.
- You know, I was thinking
- Mm.
we should call it "Canfield's".
Mm.
What? You don't like it?
Who makes the biscuits and the muffins
and the gooey butter cake?
It's Minnie's café.
No, we built it all
together as a family.
True.
But as an entrepreneur.
[LAUGHS]
You have to think
about how things sound.
And at the end of the day,
"Minnie's"
is cuter.
Mm.
[KNOCKING]
I believe someone's missing a Dog?
Oh my goodness. LJ thought it was lost.
He'll be so relieved.
Can we talk?
Then she said LJ and Dog
spend more time with me than she does.
Oh, Lily.
It's my fault.
The clinic is so important
but she needs me too.
Still, you can't exactly
turn your patients away.
She's too young to understand that.
[SIGHS]
I feel stuck.
Well, first of all,
you need to have at
least one day off a week.
We'll figure that out.
I know, I am working on that.
But also,
you're always going to feel
like you're compromising.
It's just part of the deal.
I remember those first years with LJ.
Some nights I'd realize
I'd taught all day,
cooked dinner, given him a
bath, put him to bed, and
and I hadn't really been with him.
Some nights, after I tuck Lily in,
I hear her whisper to her pillow.
It's like she's trying to
tell it everything she wished
she could have told me during the day.
- Oh.
- Oh.
My heart.
Oh, Elizabeth, why is this so hard?
I used to think that love
meant being everywhere at once.
But LJ knows that even
when we're not together,
he's always in my heart.
We give what we can and
hope that when they grow up,
they know we did the best we could.
I still wish I could
be everywhere at once.
Well
let's start by getting
you next Sunday off.
Oof! We'll need to scrub everything
before putting it back on the shelf.
I will do it. I will do it tonight.
Florence, I've been
thinking about your jar
Oh, Ned. It's fine.
I know those things
don't mean as much to you.
I-I shouldn't have fussed.
I know this won't make up for it, but
What on earth?
Oh. Yes.
The first time we took a walk together,
you were wearing a
beautiful green velvet hat.
And the wind came up and
took it right off your head.
And I did not help so I
could watch you chase it.
Oh.
Oh, uh
Oh.
You once baked a pie
that was so delicious,
I remember the date.
It was April 3rd. It was a Tuesday.
And it was rhubarb.
Oh, Ned.
My dear, sweet Ned.
Florence, I-I may forget to save things,
but I remember you.
I always remember you.
♪
I love you.
Oh, I love you.
[KNOCKING]
Good evening, Governor.
Hello, Edie.
Well, Bucky is home safe and sound.
Mrs. McCormick actually
blushed when she heard
that the Governor had
a hand in catching him.
I think you're giving
me far too much credit.
That was Fernando that wooed
that horse into submission.
I think we all played our part.
The vest.
It's back.
Old habits die hard.
I guess that's why
they call them habits.
Like dinner, perhaps?
You feel like joining me?
Maybe a poker game for dessert?
I have an early morning.
I have several contracts I
still need to get through.
But thank you for
bringing me the good news.
Of course.
Lucas
you know that there's nothing
between Fernando and me anymore.
Right?
Of course.
Okay.
[STOMPING AND LAUGHING UPSTAIRS]
Oh, boy.
Sounds like they're having
a good time up there.
That or the cavalry just arrived.
Honey bear, it's time to go to bed!
Oh, I can't believe he's not tired.
I'm exhausted.
So you made your train on time?
Oh, I may have asked Jed to
lure his sheep onto the track
so that the train
couldn't leave the station.
Wow. Well, if I ever
need to rob a train
No one suspects a school teacher.
[CHUCKLES]
- [WINCES]
- Nathan!
Okay. All right, sit down.
You need to be careful
of those stitches.
- I'm fine.
- Nathan.
You don't always have to be fine.
You know, when that car
was coming towards us,
the only thing I could
think about was you three.
Elizabeth
if anything ever happened to me,
would you
Would I look after Allie?
I'd do more than that.
I'd fight to make sure
every dream you have for her comes true.
Same goes for LJ.
If anything, God forbid, were to ever
You're the one I'd
want to watch over him.
Like he was my own son.
I promise.
Thank you, Nathan.
[CHILDREN LAUGHING UPSTAIRS]
[LAUGHS]
I reckon that cavalry
is still wide awake.
[LAUGHING]
LJ, look who's here.
Hi, LJ.
Hi, Lily.
Lily, isn't there something
you'd like to say to LJ?
I'm sorry I took Dog.
I won't do it again.
It's okay.
Dog told me he had a good time with you.
He did?
Uh-huh. Do you want to
come over after school?
If it's alright with Mrs. Thornton.
Of course. Let's go, LJ.
I'll be right there.
Lilypad, come here.
I have something for you.
But that's yours, Auntie Faith.
Well, it's ours now.
I know it's not the same
as us being together,
but every time you touch it,
you'll know that I'm thinking about you.
- Okay?
- Okay.
[DOOR OPENS]
Good morning, Dr. Carter. Lily.
Good morning, Molly.
Oh, the food journals.
Thank you so much for
staying on top of that.
Faith,
what I was trying to say earlier
Is that I
I still have a little ways to go,
but I have been taking
a correspondence course
to become a nurse.
Molly!
That's wonderful.
Please let me know how I can help.
Well, I'm hoping I can be
a little more help to you.
I've been dressing dolls' wounds,
but they don't say "ouch", so who knows?
[LAUGHS]
Well, thank you, Counselor Nahmias.
Yes, I wish it were, too.
Don't tell me they
couldn't match the plate.
I saw it clear as day.
They matched it
to a stolen vehicle they found torched
outside of Jameson.
- No prints.
- So, nothing changes.
Except now we know we're
dealing with a ruthless
organization that will do
anything to gut our case.
He's gone.
Christopher's gone.
What? When?
I went to the mercantile, I came back,
his car wasn't there, and he left that.
He's done.
He doesn't want to help
us with the investigation.
They wanted him scared. It worked.
Well, without him, we don't have a case.
My biggest concern
right now is his safety.
Of course. I'll call an
alert right now, Henry.
We'll find him.
Well, find him before
that fellow that tried
to run you down does.
Yes. This is Nathan Grant
of the RCMP, Hope Valley.
I'm calling in a territory-wide bulletin
for a one Christopher Hughes.
