- Previously on "Heartland."
You're a good boy, Spartan.
I'm not gonna let you get hurt, I promise.
- How many bribes does it take
to get houses built on a wildlife corridor?
- You say that one more time,
I'll sue you so fast you won't know what hit you.
- It should only take a few days.
Snares'll take care most of them,
anything left I'll deal with personally.
- I don't need the details,
I just need this wildlife problem to disappear.
- Consider it done.
- I don't think I'm looking for the perfect horse.
I think I'm looking for the right horse.
- I'm sorry did you say Kelowna?
Why would you need to go there?
- 'Cause that's where Quinn is.
- Like Jack said it's not goodbye, just see you later.
- Lou?
- What? - Yeah.
No, I'm just gonna, I'm comin' to the ranch.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll see you soon.
- Remi!
Remi, here girl!
No luck.
- Remi wasn't here for her dinner last night either.
What if she's lost?
- Oh, Remi can take care of herself.
She roams a bit, but well, she always comes back.
- You're probably right, Grandpa,
but I'm gonna go out and have another look.
- I'll come with ya.
- Can I come too?
- Honey, I really need to keep Lyndy occupied
so I can finish this awful speech.
- You're the best, Katie.
Thank you.
- Remi!
- Here girl! - Here, Remi!
- Grandpa!
I think I hear her.
Remi?
Grandpa, she's stuck in a snare.
It's okay.
Are you okay?
- Where did that come from?
- Do you have something you can cut it with?
- Yeah. - It's okay.
- There's never been a snare on this property.
- There we go, there we go.
We'll get this loosened.
She's cut up pretty bad, Grandpa.
- I better call Ty, I think she needs help.
- It's okay.
We'll get you outta here.
- Ty, yeah, yeah, it's Jack.
Hey listen, can you make it back to the ranch?
And make it quick.
- Ty.
Ty, do you have blanket or something
we can put down for her? - Yeah.
Here. - Oh thanks.
It's okay, it's okay.
- I got ya, I got ya, I got ya.
- What happened? - Settle down.
Remi got caught in a snare.
- Yeah, it was on pretty tight.
She must have put up a heck of a struggle.
- Oh, oh, easy.
Just, just keep her calm so I can have a look.
Well, she's lucky she got her front legs through.
Could have been a lot worse.
- I'd like to get my hands on
the idiot who set a snare on my fence line.
- Well, I was just talkin' to Bob at the reserve,
and they're poppin' up all over the place.
He's got three wounded wolves and a dead coyote.
All injured from snares.
- How can anyone set a trap
that would risk hurting innocent animals?
- Ah, never mind the how, I wanna know who?
You got a minute?
- Well, I'm tryin' to help Lou do some canvassing,
if she can get her act together
but now she's worried about the dog.
- Ah, the dog is gonna be fine,
but I need a word with you before you go.
- About what?
- About Mitch.
- Okay.
- Listen, here's the thing.
I think I dug my heels in a little too hard
when he asked us to buy that herd together
and I've been losin' sleep over it.
- What you gettin' at, Jack?
- Well, how would you feel if I asked Mitch
to come back on as a partner?
- Not good.
Why?
- Well, because Mitch and Lou are in a serious relationship
and this disagreement between us
isn't makin' things any easier on them.
Now the three of us were in this together
and it should've stayed that way.
Mitch is family.
- He's not family.
Where is he right now, hm?
Why isn't he here supportin' Lou, helpin' her out?
What kind of a, what kind of a serious relationship is that?
I'm even startin' to miss the general.
- Okay, you got everything?
- Yes, I think so.
Um, can you just make sure the kids are okay?
Everything that's happened to Remi.
- No, I know, I know.
But they're just happy she's home.
Don't worry about a thing, I got it.
- Thank you! - Okay?
- Knock, knock.
- Hey!
- Hey, what a surprise!
What are you doing here?
- You know, I was thinkin' about you
and the election and everything,
and I figured you could use some more volunteers.
- Seriously?
- Yeah. - That's amazing!
- Well, here I am.
Put me to work.
- Do you wanna come to town with me and my dad?
We've got hundreds - Yeah, sure.
- of hands to shake, millions of leaflets to hand out.
- Look at this.
I'm in. - All right.
Like it?
- Wow.
- You're such a brave girl, Remi.
Yeah.
- Remi, yeah, she's lucky.
Okay.
I'm on my way now.
I'll see you soon.
Bye.
Hey.
I gotta go help Scott out with a surge of clients right now.
- Have you uh, have you heard from Luke or Andrea?
- No.
I haven't.
No news is good news, right?
- Yeah.
- Georgie tells me you're gonna try
and gentle one of the wild horses.
- Ah, maybe.
You know that colt that I picked out for Sam?
Well, Spartan seems to approve
of him so I thought I'd give it a try.
- Oh, come on.
You'll have him followin'
you around like a little puppy in no time.
- Speaking of.
- Hey!
Well, she's bounced back.
- Yeah.
- Okay, I gotta go.
- Okay.
See ya.
Hey, if Georgie calls, don't mention Remi.
She's got enough on her mind.
- Look what he did to this horse!
- Mom, look out!
- Don't worry, we're doing the right thing.
- Thanks, Mom.
Hey boy.
Ho.
What do you think, Spartan?
Shall we show him the ropes?
- That was Quinn McGregor on Shadowshores.
- Have fun out there .
- Next up Taylor Kingstead.
- Not too bad.
Thanks.
What are you doin' here?
- I need to talk to you.
- How'd you know I was gonna be here?
- I saw online that you'd be competing.
And that you've got two other shows lined up.
That's good.
- Yeah, and then I go home.
Are you still quitting jumping to work for your dad?
- Yeah, well, don't have much of a choice, do I?
I was lucky enough to convince him
to let me do these last few shows.
So you wanted to talk?
- Yeah.
- Interesting 'cause I'm pretty sure
you were quite clear the last time we spoke.
- I've had some time to think.
It made me realize I needed to come here
and explain why I said what I said.
You said you didn't understand why
I quit jumping and there are a few reasons.
When I got home from Europe, Phoenix got really sick.
My coach practically ditched me
and my parents were pressuring me to apply to university.
- I mean I didn't know any of that.
I'm glad that you told me but--
- But the real reason I quit is because I missed you.
I missed competing with you,
and riding with you and laughing with you.
And when the program ended,
I convinced myself that it would
be easier to make a clean break.
But when I came home felt like a piece of me was missing.
And then, you showed up and I didn't know what to do.
I'd been trying so hard to get over you--
- Hey, all right.
It's okay.
I never should have just shown up like that.
- No, that's, that's not what I mean.
You shouldn't be sorry that you showed up at Hudson.
I'm glad you did because you're right.
I'm, I am terrified of getting hurt
and when ever there's the slightest chance
of losing something great, I leave first.
You asked me to give you a reason
to stay so just, just listen.
I want you to forget everything I said in Europe.
how I acted at grad.
I want you to forget everything because,
because the time I've spent with
you has been the happiest I've ever been.
And you make me laugh,
and you call me on my crap,
and you see me for who I am.
And I think that I'm in love with you.
And I hope that's enough of a reason.
- Do you know how many times I wanted to hear you say that?
How many opportunities I gave you to say that?
- And the standings are,
Jennifer Sarsa in third place, Quinn McGregor takes second,
and Taylor Kingstead gets first place!
- Second place.
Look at me, makin' my dad proud.
I'm sorry I should go get my ribbon.
- Beat ya .
- Yeah.
- Hey, you be nice.
Settle down.
You're a good boy, Spartan.
Ho.
You're such a good teacher.
- See you on Election Day.
Thanks a lot.
- Good talkin' to you, guys.
- Absolutely, see you later.
- Wow.
Hey, thank you so much for coming
with me today and for going door to door, just everything.
- Of course, it was my pleasure.
It was fun seeing you in action, amongst your people.
Seriously, great work.
- Hey, everyone, good work today.
I don't wanna be too optimistic,
but I could feel a tide turning.
People are starting to question
J.D.'s message, so. - Okay, yeah.
I'll keep my eyes open.
Thanks, Bob.
- Hey buddy. - Hey.
- You look like you could use a coffee.
- Yes, thank you.
So you know that snare that Remi was caught in?
- Yeah.
- Well, people are finding them everywhere now.
Especially along Gibson Creek.
- Gibson Creek?
That's J.D.'s development.
- And I was just talkin' to Bob
and he said the police are now involved.
They think all the snares are made by the same person.
- I don't believe this.
J.D. practically admitted to me that he bribed
his way into getting that development built,
in spite of the wildlife corridor it disturbed.
And now this is happening?
That's it.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doin'?
- I'm gonna talk to him.
- Don't, don't go stirrin' up a bee's nest, okay?
Or let's, let me come with you then.
- The last thing I want is for J.D.
to think I need a man to protect me.
- Do you need something?
- A straight answer if that's even possible.
- Well, it's kinda hard to give
an answer when I don't know the question, Lou.
- All right.
I think it's more than strange
that the second that article came out
about your development displacing wildlife,
said wildlife has started turning up, injured or worse.
And not just wild animals, but innocent pets like our dog.
- Well, that's not a question.
- I'm sure you know that the police
are looking into this, right?
And that they're bound tofigure out who's behind it all.
- If I thought you were any kind of a threat,
I'd go directly to my lawyers
and I'd have you sued for slander.
Which is exactly what I'll do
if you continue down this path.
Quit while you're behind, Ms. Fleming.
- Very funny.
Not a chance.
- I told you, don't come to my office.
- I want the rest of my money.
I think I've done enough.
- You've done more than enough.
Get rid of the snares before
the cops trace 'em back to you.
From now on, stick to the rifle.
Don't mess this up.
You got it?
- Hey, you're okay.
See?
It's not gonna hurt you.
It's okay.
You're fine.
Hey, what're you guys doin' here?
- Well, you missed dinner so we brought ya a picnic,
and we wanted to see how you'redoin' with your new horse.
- He's not my new horse, not yet.
I'm workin' on it.
Come here.
Look.
See?
Spartan doesn't mind.
It's not gonna hurt you.
Come on, let's try again.
No, Spartan!
- Lyndy, stay here.
- I'm, I am so sorry.
I promised him I wouldn't
let anything happen to him and look!
- Hey, hey, hey.
- It's okay.
- It's all right, Amy.
It's just a bruise.
- That horse could've broken his leg!
- He didn't, Amy.
- I'm so sorry, boy.
I'm so sorry.
- Georgie's home.
- Hm.
God, I still don't know how
I feel about her takin' that trip.
- You only met Quinn for 15 minutes at Georgie's grad.
I've gotten to know him a little and I like him.
I hope it works out for them.
It's not easy, you know, meeting the right person.
- No, it isn't.
- Hey.
- There she is! - You made it!
- Dad!
Did I wake you, guys?
- No, no, no.
We, we've been waiting for you.
- Okay, I'm just gonna grab something from the fridge,
there's nothing in the loft.
- Okay.
How'd it go?
Georgie?
- How was the trip, honey?
- Everything go okay?
Georgie?
- It's not gonna work I, I messed everything up.
- What?
Georgie?
Oh honey!
- Well, thank you so much for your support.
You won't regret it.
Yeah, you bet.
Okay.
- So I just talked to Adam.
Apparently his dad said
the entire investigation is at a stand-still,
and they can't find anymore snares.
Like even the ones that were reported earlier
were gone when the police showed up.
- Oh, I don't believe this.
Werth is gonna get away with it.
Oh, good Mitch is here.
He can help.
- Hey!
- Hey.
- You, you wanted to talk?
- No, I wanted to fish.
Another rod there, help yourself.
- What?
- What, what is it?
- Mitch.
He's here with grandpa fishing.
- We're all in here working
and he's literally gone fishing?
- Yeah.
I, I don't know what's going on.
- I do.
Jack's trying to talk him back into the business without me.
- Dad!
- You know, I always find that fishing
is about the best way to clear your mind.
You can think about what's important.
You can consider the past and plan for the future.
- What are you gettin' at there, Jack?
- Well, I'm hopin' we'll be able to smooth over
this cattle business situation and settle our issues.
- We don't have any issues.
But I gotta tell ya, I'm doing pretty good on my own.
- Yeah, I knew you would.
But I'm kinda thinkin' that we'd be stronger together.
- Seriously, they, they wanna hash this out right now
in the middle of my campaign?
I'm putting an end to this.
- They need neutral mediation, I think.
- Peter!
Don't get involved in that! - Don't worry about it.
I'll be Switzerland!
- My worst nightmare, right here.
I knew it, I knew it.
You're tryin' to sneak Jack away,
make a deal behind my back, huh?
- Jack invited me.
- Really?
Another traitor in my midst.
Speakin' of betrayal,
what about the way you're treating Lou, huh?
She needs your help, you're not helpin'.
Everybody knows this election's important to her.
Even Peter is here to help her and you know what?
He is ready, willing, and able, buddy!
- Peter's here?
- Yep.
- Come on.
Hey!
Come on, get in the trailer.
Hey.
Get in there, you
Let's go.
It'll be okay.
Ha, ha, ha!
Hey.
- Hey, what's goin' on?
- I just thought I would bring him to Heartland.
He might be less distractedthere if he can't see the herd.
It's not goin' well.
- Well, let me give you a hand.
- Thanks.
- Hup!
Hup!
- Hup! - Oh no!
Ty, the gate!
Go!
Fine just go!
Get outta here!
- Amy?
What's going on?
I can go get him you know.
- No.
Just let him go, it's for the best.
I don't want him anyway.
- You know what, Tim?
Doesn't matter anyways.
I don't wanna be in business with somebody like you.
- Okay, you know what? - Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You don't, you don't wanna do that.
No insults just-- - Okay.
Please, would you all just listen?
- Pete, stay out of this one, okay?
- I would love to stay out of it, but here's the thing,
these guys gave you the opportunity to begin with.
Right?
So turning your back on them now, it's a little low, Mitch.
So you should rethink it.
- That's the truth.
- I don't think this is any of your business.
- Okay, let's leave Peter out of this.
- You know what is my business?
Lou.
You have any idea how hard she's been working?
What she's up against?
You don't.
You know why?
Because you're around, are you?
- What about you?
- What about me?
- You show up when ever you want,
interfering in our relationship,cozying up next to Lou
even though you've - What?
- been divorced for years? - Okay.
This is not the place to talk about this.
- Lou and I have a fantastic relationship.
Do you wanna know why?
'Cause we work hard at it.
I know that's probably a foreign concept to you, right?
Because whenever things get challenging,
you disappear don't you, Mitch?
Yeah. - Yeah, did I leave
my wife and kids and go to Vancouver?
- 'Scuse me?
I'm there for her when she needs me.
That's more than I can say about you.
- Okay, enough!
Obviously none of you know what I need
because if you did, you'd know that all
I want right now is a family that
I can depend on during one of the scariest
and most nerve-wracking time of my entire life!
- You're right.
- Listen, I'm sorry.
I didn't-- - No, don't!
- Whoa! - Hey, wait!
Oh!
- She's got my vote.
- Are you sure you're okay?
- I don't know.
- Why don't you talk me through this, okay?
Is it Luke leaving?
Is that why you're upset?
- And Remi getting hurt didn't help either.
- No, it's it's not just that, Ty.
Um, I guess I'm afraid.
- Of what?
- I'm afraid I'm gonna lose Spartan.
He is the last link I have with my mom.
And every time I look at him I can see her.
Ty, she died, saving him.
And now, he's getting old and I have to face that.
And I just I don't know what I'm gonna do without him.
I don't wanna say goodbye to him.
- You're not gonna have to, Amy.
Spartan's ligament has healed.
We're gonna treat his arthritis.
He's gonna be around for a long, long time.
You're not gonna have to say goodbye anytime soon, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay? - Okay.
You know, I am sad that Luke had to go.
- Well, that's the way it always had to be.
We have our own little family.
- I love our little family.
I do.
- He'll come visit.
Especially when we get this house built.
I can't wait.
- I know, me too.
See Lyndy run around and play here.
- Yeah.
Have her own little horse, ridin' over these hills.
She's so lucky to grow up here.
- Yeah.
We all are.
- Hm.
Speakin' of the house, I gotta get some clean
up done before Lee arrives tomorrow.
Otherwise this movin' in thing isn't gonna happen.
- Okay.
Thanks for chatting.
- I love you.
- I love you too.
- You can have a meltdown with me anytime.
Okay?
You just let me know.
- Thanks.
- Amy!
Get down!
Amy, you okay?
Amy, Amy!
Hey you're okay, you're okay.
Okay, sit up.
Sit up.
Come on.
Okay.
I got you.
You're gonna be okay.
Hold the gauze on there tight, Amy.
- I am.
- It's okay.
Here we are.
Okay.
Stay right there, Amy!
Help!
My wife's been shot!
Please!
- Here you go.
- It's okay, Amy.
It's okay, it's okay.
They got you.
You're okay now.
You're okay.
- Please.
Stop!
- It's okay, that's my wife!
- Sir! - Please, let me go!
Please let me go! - Sir, you're bleeding!
- That's my wife's blood.
- No, you've been shot.
- What?
- I need assistance!
I need help!
- Why haven't we heard anything yet?
- Well Dad and Grandpa said they'd call, okay?
- Jack, how are they?
Okay.
Yeah.
They are?
They're both gonna be okay.
Yeah?
Okay.
Your dad wants to talk to you.
Okay, I will.
All right you're on speaker.
- Now listen, everyone!
Amy and Ty are gonna be fine.
You gotta make Lou go to her final rally.
- Dad, I'm not going.
I can't give that speech today.
- The last thing Amy and Ty want
is to ruin your campaign.
Remember why you're running, Lou.
Don't give up now.
Are you ready to go?
- Yeah Dad, I'm ready.
- Just give her five minutes, Tim.
- Dad.
- Jack stayed with Ty and Amy.
- So what happened?
- They got caught in the cross fire
between a poacher and a wolf.
- Why was somebody hunting on their property?
- I, I don't know.
I don't know.
Ty didn't see the guy,
but he saw a white truck pull out of there.
- Wait, wait, a white truck?
Did it have a red topper?
- Apparently.
Lou?
Just wait, I have to make a phone call.
Yes, hello.
May I please speak to Jim Parker, the chief of police.
- Uh, excuse me folks.
Hi.
I'm Tim Fleming, I'm Lou's father,
but I'm also her campaign manager.
Uh, she's just gotta make a quick phone call and,
- Okay, thank you. - you may remember me
from the Hudson Rodeo Association election.
No?
- Thanks, Dad. - Okay.
- I have a speech to make.
- Hi, Lou.
- Hi everyone.
I am so glad to have you all here with me,
and with my family.
It means a lot.
The message of my campaign has always been about integrity.
It's been about moving forward with the kind
of progress that honors the values
and the traditions of our town.
It's been about protecting what's important
to us and to our families.
To say that I'm from a big family
would be an understatement.
I'm a granddaughter, a daughter,
a mother, a sister, an ex-wife .
My family is big, and it is definitely
not free from conflict.
But I am nothing if not loyal to my family,
and that family includes this town.
And when someone threatens that family,
tries to hurt them, tries to take them down,
you can bet that I will be there and ready to fight.
- Yeah.
- J.D. Werth is that threat to my family and to my town.
And I promise that I will do
my best to defend us to the end.
So thank you for being here with me today,
and for helping me to realize
that this is not only what I want to do,
but what I have to do.
Thank you.
- All right!
Yeah!
Woo!
- Hang on you guys.
I'll help ya.
- It's okay, Grandpa.
Hi sweetheart.
Hi.
- Hi, Mommy.
- I missed you.
Hey Remi.
Hey.
- Easy.
Are you okay?
- Yeah, yeah, I'm okay.
- Come sit down.
- Here is a little pie,
for our hero. - Thank you, Lisa.
- The super hero!
- I'm not a hero, guys. - Yes, you are.
You heard what the doctor said.
If you hadn't have jumped in front
of that bullet it would've hit me straight on.
- You saved Amy's life, Ty.
Don't doubt that.
- Hm.
- So uh, the police made any progress or?
- We haven't heard anything.
I wish I woulda seen the guy's face
but I did see the license plate
so hopefully something will come of that.
- I'm sure it will.
- Get down!
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm okay.
If anything woulda happened to you,
if I'd lost you Amy-- - No.
Hey you didn't.
I'm okay.
I'm okay because of you.
I'm fine.
- Okay.
It's time.
There should be some initial results.
- He's gonna win.
- Early days. - Okay.
- Early days.
- I think someone's here to see ya.
- Sorry to drop in like this again.
- What are you doing here?
- Well, the question I've been asking is why'd you leave?
You just disappeared on me in Kelowna.
- It didn't seem like you wanted me there
and neither did your friend.
- What friend?
- The girl that you were with.
- Wait.
Her?
No, no.
She's just a friend.
Like, like an actual friend.
She's not somebody that I'm seeing.
She's not you.
- What?
- I realized a lot of things when I left Hudson.
Mainly, that I didn't have a plan.
I was just doing what my parents wanted me to do
and not, not what I wanted to do.
When I was working with you,
I realized how much I loved coaching.
It might be the thing I actually want to do.
- That's great,
but is that why you came here?
To tell me that?
- No.
I came here to tell you that Hillhurst Stables offered
me a coaching job here in Hudson and I'm gonna take it.
But only if you want me to.
Just give me a reason to stay and I will.
- Well, look who it is.
What you doin' outside?
Come on in golden boy.
- Golden boy?
- Just go with it.
- Okay.
- Okay, final results should be in.
- Okay.
- Here we go, right? - Yes.
Okay.
- Yeah, here it comes.
- Mom!
- Lou, is that it? - Mom, you won!
You won!
Mom! - Yeah!
Honey, you did it!
- Thank you so much for your support.
- Are you kidding me?
Of course.
- Hey!
I, I won!
- Of course you did!
Congratulations!
- Thank you. - Yeah.
- Hey, you brought it!
Oh, Dad.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you. - We did it.
- We did it!
- Hey, good turn.
- Yeah.
Well, thank you so much for calling, Jim.
Well, I'm just glad my tip was helpful.
Okay.
You take care.
- He's a good boy.
- Yes, he's a very good boy.
- Looks good out there, I mean.
- Hey, you see this?
- I did.
- They got Werth.
Apparently his henchman, Grady, squealed.
- That's great news.
- Yeah.
I mean, he's saying that he was just aiming at the wolf
and he didn't even see Amy and Ty.
But you know, who knows right?
What's up?
- You didn't say girlfriend.
- What?
- In your speech the other night, you know, you,
you said mother, daughter, granddaughter,
you said ex-wife, didn't say girlfriend.
- I'm sure I did.
Didn't I?
I don't even remember what I said.
I, I mean, that speech was totally made-up on the spot.
- Listen, I gotta be honest with ya,
I just, I feel lately like I'm on the outside lookin' in.
- Well, you kinda have been.
You know, I mean, Peter wasn't far off when he called
you out down at the pond.
- Well, you know what?
Maybe Peter's the only support you need right now.
And that's fine, that's great.
I think that's really great.
You should go for it.
At least until you figure out
what it is that you really want.
- Maybe you need to figure that out as well.
- So is Spartan back to normal?
- Yeah.
Yeah, he's feelin' great.
- That's good.
Look.
Look!
- Horsey.
- Come on, boy.
Come on, come on.
Let's go.
Oh, Spartan.
- You see that, Amy?
He's ready to join up.
- Come on, how do you know?
- 'Cause horses never lie.
- Hi.
You're a good boy.
