Throwing Your Hat in the Ring

1
Previously on Heartland.
It was Lou
who told Jed about your dad.
This doesn't just hurt
the business, Amy.
This hurts my dad. And me.
Now, what we want is
a new on-air host.
It will make you a star.
Jed stark just called
about our deal with Crown.
He wants to expand the terms
and have Heartland
replace Pryce, supply them
with both bison and beef.
I mean, this could
really help my career.
I mean, I could do some cold
starting clinics, build my name.
What are you thinking?
Bringing my underage kid
to a bar?
Katie, seriously?
I'm so sorry.
I never meant to trick you.
I'm so amazing,
you're gonna break up with me?
I just think
that you need some time
to figure out who you are.
Lou. I'm so mad at you.
What you did, it really hurt.
I'm not ready
to forgive you yet.
(crying)
(tense music)
(heart beating)
(engine starts)
Lyndy! Lyndy!
- Are you OK?
- Lyndy!
Lyndy, are you in here?
Lyndy, come on out
if you're hiding, sweetie!
Have you seen a little girl?
- Her name's Lyndy.
- No, I haven't.
Lyndy!
Lyndy!
Lyndy!

You want to face the audience
when you're addressing them.
But don't let your adrenaline
get the best of you.
It's kind of a fine balance.
You know, you want to make sure
that you keep your energy up,
but don't rush things.
OK. Should I use a mic?
How many people signed up?
Well, I didn't really get
people to sign up,
but I posted on my socials,
put up posters all over town.
I even got an ad
in the Hudson Times,
so it should be a good turnout.
Did you promise to work with
every horse that people bring?
- Yeah, sort of.
- OK, it's fine.
It's just,
it's your first clinic,
so you want to keep
the pressure low.
Maybe next time,
get people to register first.
- OK.
- My dad's back.
(laughs)
(car engine stops)
- Hey. Welcome back.
- Thanks.
Nice hat. Did you get
that in Stavely?
- I've got a surprise.
- The hat's for me.
- Hey.
- Shane, hey.
- How are you?
- Oh, it's so good to see you.
(knocking)
You know, there's no point
in knocking if you're just
going to come in anyway.
Glad to see you're still
all sunshine and rainbows.
Are you going to stay
in your room all day again?
I'm grounded.
What else am I supposed to do?
Don't be so dramatic.
No one said you were
confined to your room.
So when is this over?
Can I go back
to my writing class tomorrow?
No. Nice try.
Look, I don't even think
Jasmine would let you
in the class at this point.
Yeah, but I'm still
one of her best students.
That's not the point, Katie.
It is for adults.
Yes, but if I can
just talk to her–
Sorry, I need to take this.
(sighs)
Hey, Grandpa.
Whoa, look who's here!
What brings you to town?
Shane's been offered
a partnership
at the biggest law firm
in Philadelphia.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you. Thank you.
Yeah, my schedule's about to
get a whole lot busier, though,
so I thought I'd better swing by
for a visit while I still can.
It was actually really
good timing, though.
I landed just an hour after Dad,
so I could catch a ride.
You landed? From where?
I picked him up
on the way from,
uh, there's no
flights from Stavely.
- Shane! Hey!
- Hey. Hey, how are you?
- You here for the weekend?
- Yeah, just a couple days.
Well, perfect.
Good news all around then,
because I just found out
that Heartland Beef got
the permit to be
the exclusive burger vendor
at the farmer's market tomorrow.
- All right.
- Well, who's going to run that?
- Us. The whole family.
- Well, I can't.
It's Logan's first clinic
here this weekend.
Right. Well, good thing
you're here. Lots to organize.
I have to figure out
everyone's roles.
This is going to be
great for the business.
Hungry? Jack will make
you a sandwich.
I'll, uh, I'll put your
bag up in the loft.
He must be out
of cold cuts. Again!
What can I make you?
Dad?
What's going on?
Oh, I'm taking
Shane's bag upstairs.
That's not what I mean.
He said you landed
at the airport.
So where were you, really?
(sighs)
(whispers): Dallas.
- So you went for the audition?
- Yep.
And they offered me the gig,
so I'm going to take it.
- You're moving there?
- No.
I'm just going to fly
back and forth for the rodeos.
Dad, how are you going
to fly back and forth?
There's a rodeo every weekend.
How are you going to manage
that with your business,
the rodeo school,
not to mention Jessica?
I talked to Jess. We're good.
She's excited for me.
Thought you might be, too.
It's nice to be wanted.
(hesitates)
Rod had a limo for me
at the airport.
And that hat, I'm guessing.
Yeah.
I nailed the audition.
They made me an offer
I couldn't refuse, so…
You know, I got it figured out.
It's all gonna work.
Then why did you lie
to Grandpa?
I didn't.
Well, you know what he's like.
You gotta find the right time,
so just…
Please don't say
anything for now, OK?
I won't. Not yet.
But you should, soon.
Because if I can tell
something's up,
you can bet he can too.
(sighs)
(neighing)
(bird chirping)
So I'll be taking the orders.
Grandpa and Dad,
you guys are on the grill.
Shane and Katie, you will
be plating the burgers.
What's my job?
Uh, you are in charge
of the ketchup and mustard,
so you have to let me know
as soon as they're low.
Um, we are making our classic
beef burger, of course,
but we're also rolling
out the new bison burger.
And make sure you let everyone
know that Heartland Beef is now
the exclusive organic beef
supplier for Crown Shoppers.
Right.
So Shane, tell us more
about this new job.
It was a big surprise.
This firm is known
for headhunting
the best associates from all
the other firms in the city,
but I haven't accepted it yet.
They set these huge
billing hour targets,
and Chloe just got put
on this big case
at her firm, so…
Yeah, I don't know,
it's all very exciting,
but we need to make sure
that we're still
protecting our time as a couple.
Well, sometimes,
you have to make sacrifices
to chase your dreams.
That may be true,
but you also can't lose sight
of what's important.
Family comes first.
(pensive music)
(geese honking)
(insects trilling)
Hey. Can I just grab
some milk for my coffee?
- Dad's out.
- Of course he is.
Help yourself.
Hey, why aren't you
dressed yet?
We're leaving.
I'm staying home, actually.
To punish me
because you're grounded?
No. I'm writing a short story,
and I'm on a roll. See you.
I would bet dollars to donuts
that that is a short story
about an evil mom.
I'm sure that's not true.
You're going
to owe me a donut.
(Shane laughs)
So, it's nice to see you
and Chloe are doing so well.
Thank you.
Yeah, it's crazy times.
You guys are young.
This is the fun part, you know?
You're ambitious
and setting yourself up
for the future.
Do you think
I should take the job?
- Absolutely.
- I mean, we're leaning
- that way, but…
- Trucks are loaded.
- Let's do this.
- You ready?
Yeah.
(bright music)
(indistinct chatter)
Here you go. Yeah.
Thank you.
- All right.
- Yeah!
(indistinct conversation)
OK, this needs to run
like an assembly line.
Meat to grill, grill to plate,
plate to customer.
- Can I help?
- Uh… yeah.
You can be the water girl, OK?
So it's going to be a hot one.
You need to make sure
everyone's water bottle is full.
- Shane, did you bring a hat?
- Uh, no.
But I'm all sunscreened up,
so I am good.
You know, I'm sure
that thing will do
a good job of keeping
the sun off you,
but you sure you want
to wear it near the grill?
You're right, Jack. No need
for two of us on the grill.
I think I'll go drum
up some business.
Oh, you mean strut up
and down the street
like a peacock
in your fancy hat?
Couldn't quite hear you there.
Can you two quit it,
please, and help me
unload the meat and condiments?
Oop! Oh. Sorry, pumpkin.
Lyndy, sweetheart, you need
to try to stay out of the way.
I don't want you to get hurt.
(slow music)
(sighs)
I just don't understand.
It was supposed
to start an hour ago.
Where is everyone?
Well, you're not known
for doing these yet.
If you want, I can put a plug
on my website for the next one.
This is so humiliating.
I can't believe
no one showed up.
(vehicle approaching)
Maybe you spoke too soon.
Hey. Sorry, do I have
the wrong day?
- I'm here for the clinic.
- Oh, no.
No, you got the right day.
It's just, uh…
You're the only one
who showed up.
Really? I mean,
I saw you at the rodeo
and couldn't believe
your control in the saddle.
And I thought, you know,
if anyone could help
my horse, Axel, it'd be you.
Hasn't been himself.
Can hardly ride him anymore.
He's impossible to control.
Well, I guess you're
going to cancel, so.
No, no, I mean…
I went to all the trouble
of putting this on.
So I mean, one client's
better than none, right?
- OK. Yeah. All right.
- Let's do it.
Appreciate you.
Just right up here?
Yeah. Anywhere here's good.
OK. Thanks.
(soft music)
(both chuckle)
First batch is almost ready.
Great, except no one
is coming to our stand.
(sighs)
I don't get it.
The market's super busy today.
(camera clicks)
Thank you.
Hey. Hey, what was
all that about?
Oh, I, uh,
I'm a bit of a celebrity
since we did
the announcing at the rodeo.
Oh.
Hey, maybe you want to use
that celebrity to draw
a few customers over here
before these burgers
are overcooked.
Yeah. OK, I'm on it.
Hi, there.
(Axel snorts)
All right. You ready, boy?
All right. Come on, Axel.
(Axel snorts)
Let's go.
Keep going, boy.
Nope, nope. Wrong way.
(Axel neighs)
Wrong way. Come on, Axel.
This way. This way. Agh!
(neighs)
(grunts)
Come on. Axel.
(Axel neighs)
Here we go, boy.
(Axel snorts)
OK.
Come on.
Axel!
(Axel snorts)
(Riley grunts)
- All right, come on down.
- Whoa, Axel. Whoa.
We're going to do
some ground work.
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
All right.
That's a nice print.
Oh, thanks, man.
I designed it myself.
(pensive music)
(Axel snorting)
(Logan clicking his tongue)
Come on.
Come on. Come on, boy.
(Axel neighs)
Logan, I don't know
if I would get up just yet.
Why don't you work
on the ground some more?
The last time I did that,
I ended up behind
all my competitors.
There's no clock here, Logan.
Yeah, but if this were
an actual clinic,
I'd have to speed up.
I can't spend
all day on one horse.
Yeah, it's your call.
Who's hungry?
Heartland Beef is…
They've got burgers
east end of the market.
Get yours soon,
before they sell out.
Look at this guy.
You know, huh? Beef or bison?
- The one with a spice rub.
- We don't have spice rub.
Got it over there.
(intriguing music)
(indistinct chatter)
Excuse me. Thank you.
Sorry, just want a napkin.
Thank you. Sorry, excuse me.
What, uh, what exactly do
you think you're doing?
What does it look like?
We're feeding
the fine folks of Hudson
some of the best organic beef
in Alberta,
which we specialize in,
unlike others
who spread themselves thin
trying to diversify.
We have a permit.
We are the only ones allowed
to sell burgers here.
Oh, that's great.
We're giving
our burgers away for free
to show appreciation
to our loyal customers
who can no longer find
our product at Crown Shoppers.
Well, because of their smart
business decision,
you can now find
a higher quality product
on their shelves,
and you know what?
Don't spoil your appetites,
folks, because Heartland Beef
is going to be giving away
free beef and bison
burgers right now.
- Oh!
- With a complimentary pop.
And corn on the cob.
What the heck?
Free steaks for everyone
at the Heartland Beef tent.
- Steak?
- Steak? Wow!
Oh, yeah!
(soft music)
(Axel snorting)
Easy, now.
You're OK.
(Axel snorting)
Come on, boy.
(Logan sighs)
Come on.
All right, Axel. Whoa, now.
You're OK, Axel.
Here you go, Riley.
Just give me a second.
Thanks.
(Logan sighs)
I know what you're
going to say, I…
Got on the saddle too quick.
No.
I was going to say,
I know that you're hurting.
Only one person came today.
I meant about Miley.
Breakups are tough, OK?
I know what it's like
to have a broken heart.
But I think you and I could
both use a win right now.
So why don't we help
these two find
their way back to each other?
Hey.
- OK?
- OK.
And yes, I think you got
on the saddle too quick.
(Logan sighs)
Well, maybe I didn't.
- Tell me what you're thinking.
- I don't know.
What if it's…
Actually the saddle?
- Riley?
- Yeah?
(Logan): You change
your saddle any time recently?
Yeah, a… month ago. Why?
- Let's try a different one.
- Uh… OK.
Don't get cocky yet.
(Logan chuckles)
(pensive music)
(sighs)
OK, and a roasted corn
for you.
Thank you. Great!
Let's get as many of those
on the grill as we can.
The entire line-up has
moved over from Nathan's.
- We're out of burgers.
- Can I please help?
There you go.
Uh, you know what, honey?
It is going to be really busy
for a while, but good news!
I brought you a colouring book
and… some crayons!
Can I please have a burger?
(Lou exhales heavily)
We're all out,
and it's going to be a while
before the next batch is ready,
but I packed you
a healthy snack.
OK, let's turn up
the heat on this grill
and get some corn on there,
it's game time, boys.
(Lyndy sighs)
(intriguing music)
(indistinct conversation)
Can I please have a burger?
What, you like mine
better than your family's?
We're out.
Oh… well,
you're in luck, then,
because I got
a whole bunch right here.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Want some ketchup?
- Yes, please.
- Mustard? No? All right.
- No.
You should go swing
on the swings.
(Nathan laughs)
On the swings, huh?
At the playground.
I do it when I'm sad.
It makes me feel happy again.
What makes you say I'm sad?
Your mom tell you that?
No. She's not even here!
But all the people left
your booth to go to ours.
(Nathan laughs)
Thanks for rubbing it in.
(Lyndy giggles)
(Nathan laughs)
That's a good call, Logan.
It's possible the saddle's
the reason that he's acting up.
I guess that would
line up time-wise.
I should have thought of that.
Yeah, why did
you make the switch?
Well, the old one
was getting pretty frayed.
If it's just about
how it looks, you may want
to think about changing it back.
Well…
Truth is, I sold it.
Look, there was
nothing wrong with it.
We just need every dime we can
scrape together right now,
so… I got
this cheap saddle instead.
It's all good. We all have
to make sacrifices sometimes.
Yeah… I mean, it seems
to be all we do these days.
And ever since my wife
and I bought a place,
I'm constantly working
just to keep us afloat.
We wanted to own land,
but… heh,
it feels like
the land owns us now.
I'm sure you're doing the
best you can for your family.
Am I?
Because I feel completely absent
from my wife… from this guy.
I mean, I had to put him
on cheaper feed, too,
and hardly ride him anymore,
it's no wonder he's struggling.
I'm sorry, boy.
Look, I'm trying my best, but…
(Riley sighs)
I know it's not good enough.
Yeah! I think
people are enjoying it.
- Yeah, I know I am. Good.
- Yeah, good.
- I'm really excited–
- Jasmine.
We need to talk.
- I'll see you guys next week.
- Yeah. OK.
OK. See you.
Come on.
Why have you been
ignoring my texts?
OK, look, I know
I really messed up,
but… please
let me explain myself.
I don't think there's
anything to explain.
It'll only take a couple
of minutes, I promise.
Please.
OK, I have time for a drink.
And by a drink, I mean tea.
(indistinct chatter)
OK, I need three steaks,
two medium rare,
one medium well, a bison burger,
and four corn.
I need a minute here.
We don't have
a minute, Grandpa.
We're getting backed up.
Here you go.
Thank you for your patience.
There you go.
I don't think this was
the best idea, Lou.
It's costing us a lot of money.
It's worth
every penny in publicity.
There you go, sir. Thank you.
Tim, grab some tongs
and get your butt over here.
Well, since you asked me
so nicely, whew. Mm!
Hey, hey, what?
My hat! My…
- You did that on purpose!
- Oh, give me a break!
You know what?
You were making cracks
about it all day.
Well, because it's ridiculous.
Oh, my… look at…
Look at this! You stained it.
Well, use some bleach.
It can't get any whiter.
OK, you're
buying me a new one.
Fine! I'll run right over
to the costume store.
OK, Dad, guys,
guys, come on.
You can just get
a new hat from the guy
- at the sports network, right?
- Hey, sh…
I knew it! You went to Dallas.
Yes, I did,
and I took the job.
Oh, that's great.
Just what we need right now.
You know what? I know you.
I know what you're thinking.
And nothing you can say
can change my mind.
- So zip it!
- OK, hang on. I'm just gonna…
I'm going to take this. One sec.
OK, we got a job to do.
Yeah, I don't think
you can juggle any more jobs.
Sounds like your plate's
already full.
Somebody's mixing
their metaphor.
Well, it's better than
mixing my priorities.
Now Lou and I are gonna
have to pick up your slack.
What about your rodeo school?
Who's stepping up over there?
All so you can go on TV and play
the hero in the white hat.
You know what? I'm sick
and tired of your…
- Somebody help!
- Shane?
Shane!
You really gave us
a scare there, Shane.
OK. How's he doing?
He'll be fine. Seems like
a mild case of heat stroke.
You OK?
Yeah.
We're pregnant, Dad.
Chloe. That was
her on the phone.
She's pregnant.
You're going to be a…
I'm gonna–I'm gonna be
a grandfather again.
- Yeah.
- I'm gonna be
- a grandfather again!
- Hey, that is great news.
- Congratulations, Shane.
- Thank you.
- Oh, no.
- It's OK, Lou.
- We'll get everyone fed.
- No, no, no. Where, uh…
- Where's Lyndy? Lyndy!
- Where did you see her last?
She was eating
a burger right there.
I gave her a packed lunch,
but that was a while ago.
Well, she couldn't
have gone far. We'll find her.
- I'm shutting down the grill.
- OK, we got to fan out.
We've got to find her.
Lyndy? Lyndy?
(tense music)
Lyndy?
Lyndy Borden?
- Hey, is everything OK?
- Hey, uh, have you seen Lyndy?
- Yeah, yeah.
- You have? When?
About an hour ago.
She came to get a burger.
She did?
She said all
yours were spoken for.
Um, if you see her,
can you just please call me?
- Yeah, of course.
- Lyndy!
(bright music)
(Logan): Good stuff.
OK, bring him to a stop.
Well, I definitely think
that saddle's a better fit.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, I can't really
afford a saddle like this.
I can give you the name
of some places that sell
- secondhand tech.
- And you're welcome to borrow
that one until you find
the right saddle.
- Well, thank you.
- Of course.
I mean, the saddle's a start,
but there's also the stress
you were talking about, I think
you're transferring it
to the horse.
(cell phone ringing)
Excuse me.
(beep)
Hi, Lou.
Wait. Slow down!
Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah!
I'll be right there.
Lyndy!
- Are you OK?
- Lyndy!
Have you seen a little girl
with the pigtails, blonde?
Her name's Lyndy.
(Lou): You need to call me
as soon as you have–
- Lou?
- Amy–
- You still haven't found her?
- Um, no–
How did you even lose
track of her?
I don't know, I mean,
why would she just
wander off like that?
She is a kid, Lou!
She is your responsibility.
I know, I'm sorry,
it's just everything got
so crazy, and Nathan's here.
What does he have
to do with this?
He was giving out
free burgers to try
to mess everything up, and then
we had to bring in steak.
Listen to yourself!
You say you're doing this
for the sake of our family,
but you are so caught up
in this stupid feud,
and now my daughter's missing,
and that's on you.
(suspenseful music)
Lyndy!
Excuse me. Lyndy!
I'm so sorry.
(tense music)
(metallic squeaking)
(Nathan sighs)
Hey, Lou, I found her.
Yeah, yeah, she's fine.
Just meet me at the playground
in the park, OK? OK.
(soft music)
Hey, there.
- You came?
- Yeah.
Everybody's looking
for you, you know.
Your family's really worried.
You shouldn't walk away
without telling anybody.
I didn't think
they would notice.
Yeah.
I'm going to hang out with you
until your aunt gets here, OK?
Sure. You want to swing?
I think I'm a little
too old for that.
You're not too old to be sad.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
Then swing with me.
(Nathan laughs)
OK, why not?
(Nathan sighs)
(Nathan laughs)
Come on.
(Katie): I feel
terrible about lying.
I never meant
for any of this to happen.
Katie, you showed up
to a writing class for adults.
Because you assumed
I was older than I am.
And that felt good.
The truth is, I don't have a lot
in common with kids my own age.
I've always been
a bit of an old soul.
I can understand that.
I get what it's like, wanting
to grow up a little too fast.
I was like that too.
Then, you can see why I wanted
to just roll with it.
Katie…
I sat with you in a wine bar
and shared thoughts
that I would have framed
very differently
if I'd known I was
talking to a minor.
That wasn't fair and a terrible
position to put me in.
I know.
I know, and I am so sorry.
I know I keep saying that,
but I just want to find
a way to make this better.
(soft music)
What's done is done.
And for what it's worth,
I forgive you.
Thank you.
Jasmine, thank you so much.
I promise I will never
lie to you again.
Katie, I'm so sorry, but…
We have to go our separate ways.
I can't continue a friendship
that started
with such a big lie.
But I still think
that you have a ton of talent.
And I really wish you the best.
So… keep writing.
But more importantly,
stay true to yourself, OK?
Bye, Katie.
(receding footsteps)
(soft music)
Sweetheart.
Oh, Mommy, not so tight.
I'm sorry, peanut.
I might never let you go.
- I was worried sick about you.
- I'm sorry.
It's OK, it's just,
why did you go to the park
without telling anyone?
You know better than that.
I was really sad.
Why were you sad?
What happened?
Everyone was fighting.
Auntie Lou, Grandpa, GG.
I hate it when my family fights.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
Love you too.
(bright music)
Wow!
He looks like his old self.
Yeah, he came
a long way today.
Yeah, thanks to you.
(cell phone ringing)
- Oh, I just have to take this.
- No problem.
Hey, Kels.
Yeah, it's going
really well, actually.
I can't wait to tell
you all about it.
Yeah, no, I'll be
home soon, we'll, uh,
we'll get to your
parents in time for dinner.
I don't really want
to bring that up tonight.
Can we just have a nice dinner?
Love you. See you soon.
- Gotta go?
- Uh, no.
Uh, I'm good
for a bit if you are.
- Yeah, of course.
- I'm so glad I came by.
Man, I couldn't have afforded
yours or Amy's services,
and this… this clinic,
it's a real lifeline.
I know what it's like
to be strapped for cash, so…
Oh, uh, I'll find
a way to pay you back.
Oh, that's…
That's not what I meant.
Yeah, I just wish there was
a easy path to get on track,
you know?
Oh, I know.
My wife, Kelsey, thinks
we should sell the house
so I can go back to school.
Yeah, she wants to talk
to her parents
about us moving in with them.
Not a fan?
No, they're great,
but how humiliating is that?
Huh?
Admitting I couldn't
make it on my own?
I mean, what would you go
to school for,
if you took her advice?
There's a digital
design program
at this community college
in Calgary.
Makes sense. I mean,
you definitely got the talent.
Yeah, no, I've always been
interested in graphic arts
and, you know, it could lead
to more than just a job.
Could be a career.
- Sounds like you want to do it.
- Set us back years.
You know, the clinic today
turned out to be a disaster.
But I don't know, sometimes…
Sometimes, you got
to take a step back
to take a step forward.
You talking about me or you?
Maybe both of us.
Sorry for giving you a scare.
Yeah, well,
between you and Lyndy.
Heh. Yeah.
Yeah, no, I got
overheated for sure,
but I think it was more to do
with the Chloe news.
Yeah. Well, that was–
that was a curveball.
You know, it…
It wasn't part of the plan.
I don't know if we're ready yet.
- No one ever feels ready.
- Yeah.
- Parenting looks…
- (both): Hard.
- Yeah, it looks hard. Yeah.
- It is.
I wouldn't trade
any of it for everything
that you kids have brought
to my life.
What about the job?
How am I gonna balance that?
You can't. You can't.
What do you mean, I can't?
Well, you have options.
You're going to need childcare
for all the hours you work,
but you can afford it now.
Is… is that what you want?
What do you mean?
You and Chloe only have
this special time
with this child once.
First smiles,
first words, first steps.
- You missed all of those.
- Yep.
Exactly.
(Tim exhales sharply)
Being a hands-on father
only comes around once,
so if you choose family…
You can never go wrong.
(Shane sighs)
Nice. Bring him to a lope.
(light music)
- And now bring him to a walk.
- Hey.
Hey.
Thanks for the text letting
me know you found her.
I was just at the swings.
(Amy and Logan laugh)
OK.
Looking good, you two.
All in one day.
Yeah, thanks to
all your generosity.
I mean, what a game changer.
Well, I'm glad that
saddle's working out.
Yeah. Plus, the advice
was bang on.
- Logan and I had a chat.
- Oh, yeah?
Yeah, feels like the weight
of the world's been lifted
off my shoulders
and Axel's poor back.
Thank you.
Come on.
Yeah.
Looks like you're not only
good with horses,
but people too.
(scoffs)
I mostly just listened.
That's the most
important part.
I could kind of relate
to his financial stress,
you know.
I don't want to deal
with that either.
So, uh…
I'm going on
the colt starting circuit.
I wasn't expecting that.
Miley was right.
I was going after success
for all the wrong reasons.
It shouldn't have been something
that I was doing for her.
- I need to do this for myself.
- Yeah.
And I know you don't love
the idea of me going
- into these competitions.
- No, no.
I am so proud of you,
that you have big dreams
and you're going for them.
Nothing makes me happier.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
I'm just going to miss you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I'm sorry I was a little harsh.
No, I deserved it.
- Thank you for finding her.
- You haven't told your mom yet?
Tell me what?
- Nathan found her.
- He came to the swings.
How did he know
to look for you there?
He gave me a burger,
and I told him he should
swing on the swings
because he was sad.
(door shuts)
Where's Grandpa?
He took a side
trip to Pryce ranch.
Apparently, he wanted
to have a word with Nathan
about what went down today–
Because any of this is
his fault.
It sounds like
Nathan saved the day here,
and you guys are still
too caught up in the beef drama
- to give him any slack.
- (Lou): Amy.
(tense music)
(pensive music)
What, you haven't spent
enough time
sweating over a hot grill today?
Dad's dead set on skewers.
What can I do for you?
Well, you know
that I'm not happy
with how that whole
Crown Shoppers deal went down.
- Yeah, that makes two of us.
- Yeah.
But what happened
at the market today,
that was a bad look
for both our families.
I hope you're not
here to lay blame.
No, as a matter of fact,
I think we need
to put an end to this feud.
Yeah. Easier said
than done, isn't it?
Well, we could start
by sitting down as neighbours,
having a good
old-fashioned chat,
find a way to see eye to eye.
(vehicle approaching)
I know you probably have
the best intentions, Jack,
but there's a lot of water
under the bridge here.
I know.
You give it some thought.
I'm open to talking
anytime you're ready.
Today was not Nathan's fault,
Grandpa, so whatever you–
Amy, it's… it's OK.
Jack came as a friend.
I'll be in touch, OK?
(soft music)
(sighs)
(footsteps)
(soft music)
You OK?
Yeah.
- Are you sure?
- I said I'm fine.
Look, I've been thinking about
this whole thing with Jasmine.
Mom.
No, hear me out, because…
I want to take responsibility
for my part in it.
I've been consumed
with the business.
I haven't been
as present as I should be,
which might have caused
you to seek out attention.
- It wasn't your fault.
- I know.
And I am not condoning
what you did, but…
I can see
where it was coming from.
And I think you've
learned your lesson.
And I'm OK with you
rejoining Jasmine's class
as long as she's open to it.
She's not.
Just one more place
I don't fit in around here.
I'm getting more and more
excited about moving
to Vancouver and putting this
place in my rear-view mirror.
I'm gonna take a shower.
♪Steady as
the ground beneath ♪
Walk in time
with one heartbeat ♪
(Jack sighs)
How'd it go with Nathan?
To be determined.
Vague. What'd you talk about?
Leftovers, we're just
gonna heat everything up?
- Oh, yeah. That's the plan.
- Sounds good.
Hey.
I was thinking about what
you said earlier, and…
I am gonna turn down
partnership at that firm.
- Speak to Chloe about that?
- Yeah.
She actually sounded
pretty relieved.
My current firm gives
parental leave.
So we'll be able
to tap into that,
and Chloe will be
wrapped up her big case
before she's due, so…
Sounds like you got
it all figured out.
It's all gonna be OK.
It's like you said,
putting family first,
it's never the wrong move.
I'll set the table.
Look before

Falling for the… ♪
Well, that was
some sage advice.

Yeah. That's got

Thank you for looking
for Lyndy.
Of course.
I was worried about her too.
You might be happy to know she
was concerned about you as well.
Yeah. Yeah.
She wanted me to swing.
Any reason why she would think
you need cheering up?
Well, I haven't exactly been
in the highest spirits lately.
Business, my dad, us.
Well, this hasn't been
easy on me either.
I know.
Dinner ready? I'm starving.
Hey, Marion! You joining us?
Oh, no.
I'm just on my way out.
We have plenty!
I'll get another plate.
(laughs)
Looks like
you're stuck here now.
It does smell delicious.
Yeah.
And I can think of worse
places to watch the sunset.
Well, Fleming, you sure
know how to sweet-talk a guy.
Slaw?

We're gonna be OK ♪
