RATOR: PREVIOUSLY ON "HEARTLAND":
YOU SOLD TIM A RACEHORSE?
I DIDN'T SELL HIM A RACEHORSE.
I SOLD HIM A BIT OF A HEADACHE.
GUESS WHO'S JAM IS HITTING A SUPERMARKET SHELF NEAR YOU?
(MOUTHING QUIETLY) HEARTLAND.
IT'S YOUR MOM.
AMY: ACTUALLY, TY'S HARDLY MENTIONED ANYTHING ABOUT YOU AT ALL.
I HAD NOWHERE ELSE TO GO.
IT'S WADE. HE'S FOUND ME.
(CAR DOOR OPENING)
TY: STAY IN THE TRUCK, MOM!
LILY: WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE, WADE?
HEY, IT'S A FAMILY REUNION.
TY: TURN AROUND, GET BACK IN YOUR CAR AND LEAVE.
LILY: TY...
I CAN HANDLE THIS. I CAN HANDLE THIS.
WADE: YEAH, COME ON, TY.
I'M NOT LOOKING FOR ANY TROUBLE.
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.
TURN AROUND AND GO.
MAN, WHAT HAPPENED TO US, HUH?
YOU KNOW, IT'S ALL ANCIENT HISTORY.
I'M JUST REALLY HERE TO TALK TO YOUR MOM.
TY: YEAH?
WELL, MAYBE SHE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU.
SO LEAVE. NOW!
WE'RE ALL ADULTS HERE, RIGHT?
YOU'RE ALL GROWN UP NOW. LOOK AT YOU.
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE MAKE A FRESH START?
YOU'VE GOT TEN SECONDS.
(ROUGH SHOVE)
ALL RIGHT.
(CHUCKLING) OKAY.
BABY STEPS THEN, RIGHT?
I'LL CALL YOU LATER.
MALLORY: TY?
WHO'S THAT GUY? IS EVERYTHING OKAY?
(CAR DOOR OPENING)
TY: YEAH.
IT'S JUST SOME GUY WHO TOOK A WRONG TURN.
HE'S GOIN' NOW.
I TOLD YOU I COULD HANDLE THIS.
(CAR RUMBLING)
(CAR REVVING)
(TIRES SKIDDING)
JACK: IS EVERYBODY OKAY?
LOU: YEAH. WHO THE HELL WAS THAT?
MALLORY: OH MY GOD, WHY DIDN'T ANYBODY TELL ME
THAT TY HAS AN EVIL STEPDAD?
JACK: THE LUNATIC THAT RAN ME OFF THE ROAD?
THAT WAS NOTHING.
THEY LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE ABOUT TO KILL EACH OTHER.
WHERE IS TY?
WITH HIS MOM.
AMY: 'KAY, I GOTTA GO TALK TO HIM.
MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUST GIVE 'EM A MOMENT.
IT WAS SO INTENSE.
I THOUGHT TY WAS GONNA LOSE IT.
(BOOK SLAPPING DOWN)
LILY: I SWEAR.
I HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO HIM IN MONTHS.
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?
WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, MOM.
SO, UNLESS YOU SAID SOMETHING, THERE'S NO WAY HE COULD'VE-
AMY: TY?
NOT NOW, AMY!
OKAY. I DON'T KNOW,
MAYBE I DID MENTION YOU WERE WORKING HERE SOMETIME.
AT HEARTLAND?
MOM, THEY HAVE A WEBSITE
WITH A PHONE NUMBER AND AN ADDRESS.
THERE'S EVEN A MAP ON THERE!
IT DOESN'T MATTER.
HE WOULD HAVE FOUND ME ANYHOW.
HE'S NEVER GONNA LEAVE ME ALONE.
(FOOTSTEPS)
(BRUSH SWISHES)
YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS A KID LIVING IN VANCOUVER,
THERE WAS THIS PARK JUST DOWN THE STREET
FROM WHERE I LIVED.
AND THERE WAS THIS TREE I USED TO CLIMB,
AND I UH... I BUILT A TREE FORT IN IT
SO I COULD TAKE MY MOM SOMEPLACE SAFE TO LIVE.
SOMEWHERE AWAY FROM WADE.
AMY, WOULD YOU STOP DOING THAT?
(BRUSH SWISHES)
AMY, LOOK AT ME FOR A SECOND. I'M LEAVING, OKAY?
I'M TAKING MY MOM BACK TO VANCOUVER.
WHEN?
RIGHT NOW.

♪ You dreamer ♪
HOW LONG IS HE GOING FOR?
HE DOESN'T KNOW. HE DIDN'T SAY.
WHAT ABOUT UNIVERSITY?
AMY: HE TOLD ME IT'S GOTTA WAIT.
THAT THIS IS SOMETHING HE HAS TO DO.
GRAMPA, I KNOW HE'S MAKING A MISTAKE.
SHE IS HIS MOTHER, AMY.
THEN WHY CAN'T SHE SEE THAT THIS IS COMPLETELY
THE WRONG THING TO DO?
(FOOTSTEPS DESCENDING STAIRS)
IF YOU'RE TRYING TO TALK ME OUT OF THIS, JACK,
DON'T BOTHER. I'VE MADE UP MY MIND.
YEAH, WELL, YOU SEE, THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
BECAUSE YOUR MIND DOESN'T SEEM TO BE WORKING
TOO WELL RIGHT NOW.
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
YEAH? AND WHAT'S THAT?
OTHER THAN PUTTING YOUR LIFE ON HOLD.
MY MOM SAYS SHE CAN DEAL WITH WADE,
BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT SHE USED TO SAY
WHEN I WAS A KID.
TY, YOUR MOM'S A LOT SAFER HERE WITH US
THAN IN VANCOUVER.
NOW SHE'S WELCOME TO STAY IN THE HOUSE
FOR AS LONG AS SHE LIKES - IN MARION'S ROOM.
I APPRECIATE THE OFFER, JACK,
BUT SHE'S MY RESPONSIBILITY, NOT YOURS.
THAT'S A STEAMING PILE OF BULL.
NOW, YOU'RE THE NEXT CLOSEST THING TO FAMILY,
AND WHEN FAMILY'S IN TROUBLE, WE STICK TOGETHER.
HUH?
NOBODY'S GOING ANYWHERE.
TO MAKE SURE OF THAT, I'M GONNA LOCK THE GATE.
I FEEL TERRIBLE ABOUT THIS, LOU.
I'VE DRAGGED MY DIRTY LAUNDRY RIGHT UP TO YOUR DOORSTEP.
DON'T BE SILLY, OKAY?
YOU'RE GONNA BE MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE HERE
THAN AT THE DUDE RANCH.
AND THE CLINCHER?
INDOOR PLUMBING.
OKAY.
BUT ONLY FOR A FEW DAYS.
NOW, I DON'T WANT ANYONE GOING OUTTA THEIR WAY.
HEY, I PROMISE. YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN BED,
DO YOUR OWN LAUNDRY.
YOU CAN HELP WITH DINNER IF YOU'RE UP FOR IT, OKAY?
THANKS.
'CAUSE I DON'T WANT YOUR PITY, LOU.
OKAY.
NOT ALL THE YEARS WITH WADE WERE BAD.
IN FACT, SOME OF THEM WERE PRETTY GOOD.
WHEN HE HAD MONEY, HE TREATED ME PRETTY WELL.
AND WHEN HE DIDN'T...
ONE DAY HE WENT OUT FOR A PART FOR HIS CAR.
I PACKED MY BAGS AND I LEFT.
OKAY. NO PITY.
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
(KNOCKING LIGHTLY)
TY: (WHISPERING) AMY?
AMY, CAN I COME IN?
AMY: WHAT TIME IS IT?
TY: HEY. IT'S EARLY.
I JUST WANTED TO TALK TO YOU BEFORE UM...
BEFORE I LEFT FOR THE TRACK.
I KNOW I FREAKED OUT YESTERDAY, SEEING WADE.
MAYBE JACK'S RIGHT,
MAYBE SHE WILL BE SAFER HERE THAN ANYWHERE ELSE.
I JUST... HATE TO LEAVE.
HEY... DON'T WORRY. WE'LL KEEP AN EYE ON HER.
GO TO WORK.
TY: THERE'S ONE MORE THING.
AMY: (SLEEPILY) MMM...
NO. (GIGGLING)
TY: COME ON.
AMY: I HAVE MORNING BREATH.
TY: I DON'T CARE.
(WHILE KISSING, HORN HONKS IN THE DISTANCE)
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
JACK ACTUALLY DID LOCK THE GATE.
(DEFEATED SIGH)
(TRUCK RUMBLES UP)
TY: SEE YA. AMY: 'KAY.
(CHAIN RATTLING)
(GATE GROANS OPEN)
(TRUCK RUMBLES AWAY)
CLAY DAWSON: YOU AMY FLEMING?
YES. CLAY DAWSON.
YOU LOOK PRETTY YOUNG TO BE A HORSE WHISPERER.
(LAUGHING)
WELL, I WORK WITH HORSES. NO WHISPERING THOUGH.
CLAY: MY SON CODY,
HIS ROPING HORSE HAS BEEN ACTING UP.
NOW THE VET SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG,
BUT LIKE I TOLD JACK,
WE GOTTA GET HIM FIXED UP
FOR THE RODEO IN STRATHMORE THIS WEEKEND.
THIS WEEKEND?
THAT DOESN'T GIVE ME MUCH TIME.
IT'S ALL WE GOT.
CODY'S OLDER BROTHER IS THREE-TIME ALL-ROUND COWBOY,
AND UH...
CODY AIMS TO CATCH UP REAL FAST.
AMY: OKAY. I'LL DO THE BEST I CAN.
HEY, UH...
WHENEVER YOU HAVE TIME IS FINE WITH ME.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE BY THE WEEKEND.
WHAT ABOUT THE RODEO?
THERE'S ALWAYS ANOTHER RODEO.
(TRUCK DOOR SLAMS SHUT)
LOU: PICTURE IT, GRAMPA.
HEARTLAND JAM IN GROCERY STORES
ACROSS THE COUNTRY!
I MEAN, YEAH,
SO FAR IT'S ONLY IN ONE STORE.
IN HUDSON. BUT THAT'S JUST A START.
OH, HEY, LILY.
HEY.
LET ME GET YOU A COFFEE.
LILY: NO, NO.
PLEASE, LET ME GET IT.
I DON'T WANNA INTERRUPT.
LOU: OH, YOU'RE NOT INTERRUPTING.
GRAMPA IS JUST BEING CLOSE-MINDED
ABOUT MY BUSINESS PLANS.
JUST THOUGHT I WAS RUNNING A HORSE RANCH,
NOT A GIFT SHOP, IS ALL.
IT'S CALLED BRANDING.
JACK: IT'S NOT THE KIND OF BRANDING I'M USED TO.
LOU: LOOK, GRAMPA,
WHEN YOU'RE DEVELOPING A BUSINESS,
YOU HAVE TO THINK BIG.
ONE DAY I'M GONNA BE SERVING HEARTLAND JAM
IN THE NEW DINING LODGE.
WHAT NEW DINING LODGE?
THE ONE I'M PLANNING TO BUILD.
YEAH, I'M DEFINITELY GONNA HAVE TO FIND A BIGGER SPACE
IF I WANT TO KEEP UP WITH CUSTOMER DEMAND.
IF YOU CAN FIND MORE SPACE AROUND HERE,
FINE, YOU SHOW IT TO ME.
WHAT?
YOU TWO. YOU'RE SO MUCH ALIKE.
(HORSES THUNDER ALONG TRACK)
COME ON, BABY, COME ON.
SCOTT: HEY, TIM.
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE A BETTING MAN.
ONLY ON A SURE THING, SCOTT.
CHECK THIS BAY OUT.
THE FRONTRUNNER - "LIGHTNING DEXTER."
HEY, THAT'S LISA'S HORSE, ISN'T IT?
USED TO BE.
SHE DIDN'T HAVE THE FAITH IN IT I HAVE.
LISA SOLD HIM TO YOU?
YEAH, YOU COULD SAY THAT,
BUT I THINK I GOT THE DEAL OF THE CENTURY.
CHECK THAT TIME OUT. (LAUGHING)
WHOA.
YOU COULD HAVE A WINNER ON YOUR HANDS.
I WOULDN'T GET TOO EXCITED. IT'S JUST AN EXERCISE RUN.
FOR ALL YOU KNOW
THE OTHER RIDER'S HOLDING HIS HORSE BACK.
(CHUCKLING) TRYING TO PSYCH ME OUT, LISA?
YEAH. WORKING?
LIGHTNING WASN'T MY FIRST HORSE OR MY ONLY HORSE.
THAT ONE OUT THERE RUNNING WITH YOURS -
"ALBERTA COMET" -
THAT'S MINE, TOO.
YOU'RE GONNA REMEMBER HIS NAME.
WELL, LOOKS LIKE WE'RE OFF TO THE RACES.
YES, IT DOES.
GOOD LUCK.
(CHUCKLING)
HEY, ALLEGRO.
THAT'S CODY DAWSON'S ROPING HORSE, RIGHT?
AMY: YEAH. I'M GONNA NEED YOUR HELP WITH HIM.
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
WELL, CODY'S DAD SAYS THAT HIS TIME'S OFF.
THAT HE'S SLOW OUT OF THE BOX.
TELL ME ABOUT IT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WELL...
YOU KNOW HOW I'VE BEEN ON
A BIT OF A WINNING STREAK LATELY?
STAVELY, INNISFAIL, HIGH RIVER...
YES, CALEB, WE ALL KNOW ABOUT IT.
THE THING IS, THE DAWSON BROTHERS
WERE MOST OF THE REASON I WASN'T DOING SO GOOD BEFORE.
THEN TRAVIS HAD A WRECK.
CODY'S HORSE STARTED COMING UP SHORT.
IT'S LIKE SOMEBODY PUT SOME BAD MOJO ON THOSE BOYS.
OH, MOJO?
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T NOTHIN' ABOUT ANY VOODOO HOOEY DOOEY.
WOW. I THOUGHT MY MOM WAS A PACK RAT.
LOU: IT'S A WIN-WIN SITUATION, GRAMPA.
AS SOON AS WE GET ALL THIS JUNK OUTTA HERE,
YOU CAN HAVE THE KITCHEN BACK AND...
I'LL SET UP OUT HERE.
JACK: THIS JUNK IS MY JUNK.
IT'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
LOU: GRAMPA, WE HAD AN AGREEMENT.
JACK: NO, LOU, YOU HAD AN IDEA ABOUT TAKING OVER MY SHOP.
AND I'M TRYING TO ACCOMMODATE YOU.
LOU: YOU WANT TO ACCOMMODATE ME?
HOW ABOUT YOU BACK UP YOUR TRUCK INTO HERE
AND TAKE ALL THIS JUNK TO THE DUMP?
LILY: HEY, ONE MAN'S JUNK IS ANOTHER MAN'S TREASURE.
(METALLIC RATTLING)
HEY.
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT RADIO.
IT JUST NEEDS A COUPLE WIRES PROBABLY.
(GASPING) YOU GUYS HAVE A PIANO!
YEAH, IT'S BEEN SITTING THERE COLLECTING DUST
EVER SINCE MY GREAT GRANDMA USED TO PLAY IT.
OR WAS IT MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDMA?
WELL, IF NOBODY PLAYS IT, WHY DON'T YOU JUST SELL IT?
THE PIANO IS STAYING!
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
I BET I KNOW WHO THAT IS.
(MOTOR RUMBLING)
(MOTOR REVVING)
(HORSES HOOVES THUNDERING)
(WOODEN COW CLATTERS)
CALEB: (GRUNTING)
YES!
MAGIC HANDS.
(ENGINE RUMBLES TO A STOP)
WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT WAS - FIVE, SIX SECONDS, TOPS?
THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU, CALEB.
OKAY, FINE.
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS HORSE.
MATTER FACT, HORSE THIS GOOD,
I DON'T WHY CODY'S STILL NOT BEATING ME.
(QUIETLY) I CAN'T DO IT, WADE.
NO, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE IT ANY CLEARER.
NO!
NO, THAT'S NOT PART OF THE DEAL.
YOU HAVE TO STOP CALLING ME.
OKAY.
FIVE MINUTES.
JUST THIS ONCE.
YEAH, THAT'S ALL I'M ASKING, LILY.
I'LL BE THE GUY DRINKING COFFEE.
OKAY.
GARBAGE.
KEEPER!
IS THERE SOMETHING YOU'RE NOT TELLING US, JACK?
I BET THIS MUST'VE MEANT SOMETHING TO SOMEONE.
MY GUM HOLDER!
(CHUCKLING)
AMY MADE THAT FOR MY BIRTHDAY.
SHE WAS ONLY ABOUT SIX YEARS-OLD.
IT STARTED OUT AS A SUGAR BOWL, BUT IT KINDA SHRUNK.
THAT'S A KEEPER.
I REMEMBER, ONE YEAR,
TY MADE ME THIS LITTLE HOUSE OUT OF POPSICLE STICKS
FOR MOTHER'S DAY.
AW, LITTLE TY DID THAT?
YEAH.
HE EVEN MADE THE FURNITURE INSIDE.
COOL. DO YOU STILL HAVE IT?
I WISH. WE MOVED AROUND A LOT.
SEE, LOU, SOME THINGS ARE WORTH KEEPING.
LOU: YEAH. OKAY, THAT'S WHAT THE KEEPER BOX IS FOR!
TIM: HEY, TY, YOU GOT A MINUTE?
HOW'D YOU LIKE TO MAKE A FEW EXTRA BUCKS?
DOING WHAT?
WELL, I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES
WITH MY FOUR-LEGGED MONEY-MAKER BEFORE TOMORROW'S RACE.
YOU WANT ME TO KEEP AN EYE ON HIM FOR YOU?
YEAH. FOR THE WHOLE NIGHT.
THE WHOLE NIGHT?
YEAH, I DON'T WANT ANYBODY TAMPERING WITH HIM, YOU KNOW?
PEOPLE HAVE PULLED ALL KINDS OF SCAMS.
THEY TRANQ HORSES,
THEY STUFF SPONGES UP THEIR NOSES,
NAILS IN THEIR HOOVES.
WELL, I'D LIKE TO HELP YOU OUT,
BUT MY MOM'S STILL IN TOWN,
AND I SHOULD REALLY BE AT HOME WITH HER, SO...
YOUR MOM?
(CHUCKLING) COME ON.
THIS IS FOR ONE NIGHT, MORE OR LESS.
WHAT DO YOU SAY? I'LL MAKE IT WORTH YOUR WHILE.
CASH. (SNAPS FINGERS)
MONEY.
(TRUCK RUMBLING TO A STOP)
AMY: NO, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT, TY.
HEY, YOUR MOM IS PERFECTLY SAFE HERE WITH US.
YES. (LAUGHING)
AND YOU KNOW YOU CAN USE THE EXTRA MONEY.
YEAH, NO, I'LL GRAB SOMETHING AT MAGGIE'S FOR DINNER.
IT'LL BE FUN.
OKAY, BYE. (PHONE BEEPS OFF)
(PIANO MUSIC DRIFTS IN FROM OUTSIDE)
(MUSIC TURNS TO SCALES)
WOW.
DON'T STOP ON MY ACCOUNT.
CODY: IT'S A NICE PIANO.
IT NEEDS SOME TUNING, THOUGH.
WELL, YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON TO PLAY IT IN YEARS.
CODY: IT'S WAY BETTER THAN THE ONE I USED TO PLAY AT SCHOOL.
I COULD ASK MY SISTER. MAYBE IT'S FOR SALE.
FORGET IT. NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
MY DAD'S GOT MY SCHEDULE PRETTY WELL FIGURED OUT
AND IT DOESN'T INCLUDE PLAYING THE PIANO.
LISA: I'M TELLING YOU, THAT DAMN HORSE I SOLD TIM...
LEFT MY COMET IN THE DUST.
OH, IT WAS JUST A TRAINING RUN, WASN'T IT?
AND I TOLD HIM THAT. BUT I WAS KEEPING TRACK.
HE ACTUALLY SHAVED TWO SECONDS OFF HIS PREVIOUS BEST.
(IMPRESSED WHISTLE)
AND THAT SMIRK ON HIS FACE!
MONEY-EATING GRIN.
THAT HORSE MAY HAVE A LOT GOING FOR IT,
BUT IT ALSO HAS ONE BIG LIABILITY -
TIM FLEMMING.
YOU SEE? I'M GLAD I CAME OVER.
I KNEW YOU'D GIVE ME A REASON TO SMILE.
(KISS)
I HAVE TO GO.
WHAT IS ALL THIS STUFF?
JACK: (SIGHING)
AH, LOU'S BEEN GOING A LITTLE OVERBOARD
CLEANING OUT THE QUONSET HUT.
I MANAGED TO PRY A FEW PRECIOUS ITEMS
OUT OF HER COLD-HEARTED HANDS.
I GUESS THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE MUG.
AND I THOUGHT IT WAS OUR LITTLE SECRET.
(KISS) BYE.
HEY, YOU KNOW CALEB, RIGHT?
I THOUGHT HE COULD GIVE US A HAND,
SO I CAN SEE HOW YOUR HORSE GOES.
HEY, CODY.
HEY, MAN. I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WORKED HERE.
OH, JUST PART-TIME,
SO I CAN KICK YOUR BUTT AT THE RODEO.
I HAVEN'T NOTICED TOO MUCH BUTT KICKING, O'DELL.
THIS MIGHT BE YOUR LUCKY WEEKEND.
MY HORSE IS NOT INTO IT.
REALLY? YOUR HORSE?
'CAUSE AS A MATTER OF FACT, WHEN I WORKED-
YOU KNOW WHAT?
NOW THAT WE'VE GOT THIS ALL SETTLED,
LET'S GET STARTED, HUH?
HE'S A LITTLE JUMPY.
I DON'T THINK HE LIKES THE QUAD.
AMY: AH, HE'LL GET USED TO IT AFTER A FEW RUNS.
YEAH, I GUESS.
(ATV MOTOR ROARING)
(ENGINE RUMBLES TO A STOP)
TOLD YOU. HE'S SPOOKED BY THAT THING.
WELL, SEE, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
THAT'S 'CAUSE YOU WEREN'T RIDING HIM.
I DON'T WANNA PUSH IT.
I DON'T THINK THAT THIS IS GONNA HELP.
CALEB: HEY, CODY. WHY DON'T WE SWITCH PLACES?
MAYBE I CAN SHOW YOU HOW IT'S DONE.
CALEB, I THINK WE'RE GONNA CALL IT QUITS FOR TODAY.
I HEAR YOUR BROTHER HAD A REAL BAD WRECK.
JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS.
WHAT HAPPENED?
GOT GOOD AND CLOSE TO THE CALF,
THREW THE LOOP PERFECT,
BUT THE SLACK GOT WRAPPED AROUND HIS HAND.
YOU COULD HEAR THE BONES SNAPPING
ALL THE WAY BACK IN THE CHUTES.
GOD, IT'S GOT TO MAKE YOU THINK, HUH?
GUYS GET WRACKED UP ALL THE TIME.
IT'S JUST PART OF THE SPORT.
YEAH, BUT...
I MEAN, IF SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENED TO YOU,
YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO PLAY PIANO.
WHAT ARE TALKING ABOUT?
I DON'T EVEN HAVE A PIANO.
SEE, THE THING IS, CODY,
I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH YOUR HORSE.
I MEAN, CALEB ROPED OFF HIM AND HE HAD NO PROBLEMS.
WELL, I GUESS HE'S JUST A BETTER ROPER THAN I AM.
NO! CALEB'S GOOD,
BUT HE'S DEFINITELY NO BETTER THAN YOU ARE.
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS HE WANTS TO WIN.
AND I DON'T?
I SAW THE WAY YOU WERE HANGING ON YOUR HORSE'S MOUTH.
YOU WERE HOLDING HIM BACK
SO YOU DIDN'T GET A DECENT THROW.
THAT'S TOTAL CRAP.
I DIDN'T HIRE YOU TO TELL ME HOW TO ROPE.
I HIRED YOU TO FIX MY HORSE. END OF STORY.
HEY, COWBOY, I NEED A RIDE INTO TOWN.
ARE YOU GOING THAT WAY?
UH, SURE. HOP IN.
THANKS.
(TRUCK STARTS UP)
(TRUCK DOOR SLAMS SHUT)
(TRUCK RUMBLES AWAY)
YOU KNOW, I DON'T GET IT, GRAMPA.
ANYONE CAN SEE THAT CODY JUST DOESN'T WANT TO ROPE ANYMORE,
IF HE EVER DID IN THE FIRST PLACE.
WELL, HIS DAD WAS JUST COMING UP
DURING MY LAST COUPLE OF YEARS OF RODEO.
TOUGH S.O.B., I'LL TELL YOU THAT.
DROVE HIS SONS HARD TOO.
GOT 'EM ON A HORSE BEFORE THEY COULD WALK.
THEY LEARNED TO ROPE
BEFORE THEY LEARNED TO READ AND WRITE.
AMY: SO, IF YOU'RE A DAWSON KID,
PLAYING THE PIANO'S OUT OF THE QUESTION?
GOTTA BE TOUGH
TAKING THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
IN THAT FAMILY.
I HEARD HIM PLAY, AND, I MEAN,
HE WAS JUST FOOLING AROUND, BUT HE WAS REALLY GOOD.
BETTER THAN HE WAS AT ROPING THAT DUMMY,
THAT'S FOR SURE.
WELL, I'D HATE TO BE THE ONE TO TELL HIS DADDY THAT.
OH, COME ON, AMY.
YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT GETTING INVOLVED
IN OTHER FAMILY'S PROBLEMS.
YES, BUT YOU'RE SO GOOD AT IT, GRAMPA.
DON'T STOP NOW. (KISS)
(SIGHING HEAVILY)
(TRUCK DOOR SLAMS SHUT)
(CAR DOOR SLAMS SHUT)
HEY. HEY.
WHAT HAPPENED TO TAKEOUT?
I'M STARVING.
WHAT'S WRONG?
PROMISE YOU WON'T DO ANYTHING STUPID.
OKAY...
NO, TY, REALLY PROMISE ME, PLEASE?
COME ON, AMY.
I JUST SAW YOUR MOM AND WADE.
THEY WERE GOING INTO A BAR
JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM MAGGIE'S.
A BAR?
ARE YOU SURE IT WAS MY MOM?
YEAH.
TY!
HEY, YOU JUST PROMISED LIKE ONE SECOND AGO!
YOU DON'T KNOW THIS GUY WADE, AMY.
'KAY. HERE. I'LL STAY HERE
AND COVER FOR YOU, BUT TY-
TY: I PROMISE! NOTHING STUPID.
LILY: WELL, I HAVE TO ADMIT,
I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE YOU DRINKING BLACK COFFEE IN A BAR.
WADE: HMM.
WELL, SPENDING A YEAR ALONE WITHOUT THE WOMAN YOU LOVE
GIVES YOU A LITTLE TIME TO REPRIORITIZE THINGS.
I ACTUALLY QUIT DRINKING.
YOU...
YEAH. I QUIT GAMBLING,
KICKED THE PILLS, GOT A JOB.
OH YEAH.
WHAT IS THIS? ONE DAY AT A TIME?
DID YOU GO TO REHAB?
NO, NO.
JUST INNER STRENGTH.
I WISH I COULD SAY THE SAME.
I THINK YOU COULD.
I MEAN, LOOK AT YOU, YOU'VE CHANGED TOO -
YOUR FACE,
AND THE WAY YOU DRESS,
THE WAY YOU CARRY YOURSELF.
YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL, LILY.
I CAN'T LET YOU SLIP AWAY AGAIN.
(SIGHS HEAVILY)
YOU HAVE A WAY OF DOING THIS TO ME.
YOU KEEP SUCKING ME BACK IN.
WELL, WE'VE GOT A CONNECTION, RIGHT?
(CHUCKLING)
YEAH, IT SOUNDS A LITTLE BIT CORNY, DOESN'T IT?
WE BOTH KNOW YOU'RE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.
I THINK YOU MIGHT FEEL THE SAME WAY.
TY: COME ON, WE'RE LEAVING.
TY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
TY: LET'S GO.
COME ON, MAN, WE'RE JUST HAVING A COFFEE.
WHY DON'T YOU SIT DOWN AND JOIN US FOR A WHILE?
AH, GROW UP. JEEZ.
I'LL TAKE A DOUBLE SCOTCH, PLEASE.
WAITER: YOU GOT IT.
WADE: NEAT.
WAITER: NO PROBLEM.
YOU TOLD ME YOU SPLIT FROM HIM.
I DID.
THEN WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN THERE?
I WAS TALKING TO HIM- LISTENING MOSTLY.
TY: GET IN THE TRUCK!
(METAL CLANKING)
EVENING, CLAY.
GOT YOUR MESSAGE, JACK.
SURPRISED TO HEAR YOUR GRANDDAUGHTER'S DONE
WITH THE HORSE ALREADY,
'CAUSE FROM WHAT MY SON TELLS ME,
SHE NEVER EVEN GOT STARTED.
YEAH, WELL, UH, THAT'S...
WHAT I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT.
I KNOW SHE'S FAMILY, JACK, AND UH,
WELL, YOU GOT A RIGHT TO BE PROUD OF HER AND ALL,
BUT UH...
WELL, I DON'T THINK SHE HAS A CLUE
WHEN IT COMES TO ROPING HORSES.
NOW THAT'S NOT TRUE,
AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT HORSE.
SO HOW COME CODY CAN'T ROPE GOOD ANYMORE, HMM?
WELL, MAYBE HE DOESN'T WANT TO ROPE.
MAYBE HE NEVER DID.
YOU GOT NO RIGHT TO SAY THAT. YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THE BOY!
ALL I KNOW IS WHAT AMY TELLS ME,
AND SHE DOES TELL ME
THAT HE PLAYS THE PIANO REALLY GOOD.
AS FOR THE ROPING...
HIS HEART'S JUST NOT IN IT, CLAY.
(SIGHING)
(TRUCK RUMBLES LOUDLY)
LILY: WELL, THANKS FOR THE LIFT.
COME ON, MOM.
I'M NOT THE BAD GUY HERE.
DO YOU REMEMBER THE CUTS?
THE BRUISES?
THE LAST TIME, I HAD TO PULL HIM OFF OF YOU.
I KNOW.
I'VE NEVER FORGIVEN MYSELF FOR THAT.
I WISH I COULD'VE DONE THINGS DIFFERENTLY, TY.
BUT YOU DIDN'T.
AND I JUST PULLED YOU OUT OF A BAR WITH HIM.
LOOK...
I'M GLAD THAT YOU'RE HERE AND EVERYTHING,
BUT YOU GOTTA MAKE A CHOICE.
HIM OR ME.
YOU WANNA HANG OUT WITH WADE?
FINE.
BUT THEN YOU GOTTA LEAVE ME OUTTA YOUR LIFE.
(TRUCK DOOR OPENS)
GOOD NIGHT, MOM.
(DOOR CLOSES)
LOU: LILY, HI.
WE WERE WORRIED ABOUT YOU.
I'M SORRY.
I SHOULD'VE LET YOU KNOW WHEN I WAS GOING OUT.
I'M FINE. EVERYTHING IS FINE.
SO IF YOU DON'T MIND, I... I THINK I'LL JUST...
LILY?
WE ARE TRYING OUR BEST TO KEEP YOU OUT OF HARM'S WAY.
A LITTLE COOPERATION ON YOUR PART
WOULD BE MIGHTILY APPRECIATED.
TY: HEY.
AMY: HEY.
WELL, YOUR FACE LOOKS OKAY. LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS.
I DIDN'T HIT HIM.
OKAY, YOU'RE GOOD.
IT TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD NOT TO.
SO HOW'S YOUR MOM?
(SIGHING)
WELL, SHE WAS ACTING ALL STRONG,
LIKE SHE HAS EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL,
BUT I'M NOT BUYING IT.
DO YOU WANT ME TO STAY TONIGHT?
WHILE I'M WORKING FOR YOUR DAD?
I'LL BE ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.
OKAY.
GOOD NIGHT.
TY: HEY, BUDDY.

(PIANO PLAYS IN THE DISTANCE)
(PLAYING A DIFFICULT CLASSICAL PIECE)
(GASP OF AWE)
AMY: WOW!
EVERYONE: (APPLAUDING)
AMY: THAT WAS INCREDIBLE.
I DIDN'T KNOW A COWBOY COULD PLAY CLASSICAL MUSIC.
WELL, ACTUALLY, THIS THING PLAYS PRETTY GOOD
NOW THAT YOU'VE GOT IT TUNED UP.
I HAVE TO ADMIT, I'M KIND OF EMBARRASSED.
WELL, CLAY, JUST BECAUSE OUR KIDS
DON'T FOLLOW EXACTLY IN OUR FOOTSTEPS...
NAH, NAH. IT AIN'T THAT.
YOU KNOW WHY MY KID NEVER TOLD ME?
'CAUSE HE THOUGHT I WOULDN'T APPROVE.
(PIANO PLAYING CONTINUES)
HELL, IF I COULD PLAY LIKE THAT,
I WOULDN'T WANT TO SWING A ROPE EITHER.
(PIANO PLAYING ENDS)
(STARTS PLAYING RAGTIME MUSIC)
LILY: THANKS.
LOU: GRAB THAT, MALLORY.
DID I, UH, DID I TELL YOU THAT PIANO
IS A FAMILY HEIRLOOM?
MY GRANDMOTHER PLAYED IT.
AND BELIEVE ME,
THEY DO NOT MAKE 'EM LIKE THAT ANYMORE.
SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS, UH...
IT'S OLD, IT'S USED,
AND I CAN FORGET ABOUT SPARE PARTS.
JUST GIVE HIM THE PIANO, GRAMPA.
IT'S NOT DOING ANYTHING HERE BUT TAKING UP SPACE.
(RAGTIME MUSIC CONTINUES)
HEY, TY, HOW'D IT GO LAST NIGHT?
TY: NO PROBLEMS.
TIM: GOOD.
SO, YOU READY TO LEAVE THOSE OTHER GUYS IN THE DUST, CHAMP?
TY: (CHUCKLING)
ALL RIGHT.
(PATTING HORSE)
TIM: LUCKY NUMBER FOUR.
RACE ANNOUNCER: THE CURRENT ODDS HAVE NUMBER FOUR -
"LIGHTNING DEXTER" - AS YOUR FAVOURITE
AT THREE TO ONE.
NUMBER TWO - "ALBERTA COMET"
IS THE LONG SHOT AT TWELVE TO ONE ODDS.
NUMBER ONE - "IN HIGH PLACES" - IS AT SEVEN TO ONE...
HELLO, FOLKS.
WELL, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A HORSE RACE.
WE'LL SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL IT IS
WHEN THEY CROSS THE FINISH LINE.
YES, WE WILL.
LISA: BET ON NUMBER TWO - "ALBERTA COMET."
JACK, I HAVE A TIP FOR YOU.
"LIGHTNING DEXTER," NUMBER FOUR.
THE BOOKIES EVEN HAVE HIM PEGGED AS A WINNER.
I'VE GAMBLED ENOUGH OF MY HARD EARNED MONEY
ON YOU ALREADY, TIM.

WATERLOGGED?
YEAH, HIS BELLY'S FULL OF WATER.
WELL, HIS WATER BUCKET'S COMPLETELY EMPTY.
HE MUST HAVE DRANK IT ALL BEFORE THE RACE.
SALT.
SOMEBODY PUT SALT IN HIS HAY.
(BUCKET CLATTERS)
WADE: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
TELLER: HAVE A GOOD DAY.
WADE: OKAY, YOU TOO.
LILY, HEY!
PHEW! (CHUCKLING)
WHAT HAPPENED TO "I'VE CHANGED?"
WHAT HAPPENED TO "I QUIT GAMBLING?"
AW, NO, IT'S NOT LIKE THAT.
NO, THIS, THIS UH...
THIS WAS A SURE THING.
100 PERCENT. NO RISK INVOLVED.
I'VE HEARD THAT BEFORE.
YEAH, BUT LILY, THIS TIME IT'S DIFFERENT.
I MEAN, I'VE GOT A CLEAR VISION.
I'VE GOT A CLEAR MIND.
I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING.
THERE'S ONLY ONE THING HOLDING ME BACK.
IF I HAD YOU BY MY SIDE THERE'D BE NOTHING TO STOP US.
WHAT DO YOU SAY, LILY?
I... I CAN'T.
I PROMISED TY.
BUT YOU PROMISED ME TOO, REMEMBER?
HUH? "TIL DEATH TO US PART."
COME ON, LILY.
I CAN WORK THINGS OUT WITH TY.
YOU KNOW...
I KNOW I CAN.
JUST GIVE ME A SHOT TO DO THAT.
THIS, THIS COULD BE OUR FRESH START RIGHT HERE.
WADE...
WADE, YOU KNOW THAT NEVER WORKED WITH US.
YEAH, BUT THIS TIME IT COULD.
IT COULD.NG)
I LOVE YOU. LET'S GO HOME.
TIM: TY!
YOU STAYED WITH MY HORSE LAST NIGHT -
THE WHOLE NIGHT?
YEAH. EXCEPT, UH,
I HAD TO GO SEE MY MOM SO AMY COVERED FOR ME.
SO WHO AM I TALKING TO? YOU OR MY DAUGHTER?
DAD, WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL?
THE BIG DEAL?
THE BIG DEAL IS THAT SOMEBODY SALTED LIGHTNING'S HAY
TO THROW THE RACE.
I DON'T GET IT. WHAT...?
THEY PUT SALT IN THE HAY.
IT MAKES THEM DRINK TOO MUCH WATER.
TIM: AND HE WAS SO FULL OF WATER
THAT HE CAME WADDLING OUT OF THE GATE
LIKE A BEACHED WHALE!
SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT ONE OF YOU
STAYED WITH HIM LAST NIGHT?
UH, WELL, ACTUALLY, UM...
ONE OF THE HORSES GOT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
AND I HAD TO HELP ROUND HIM UP-
YOU PICKED A GREAT NIGHT TO BE A GOOD SAMARITAN.
I WAS ONLY GONE FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS.
I... HE... I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS-
YOU DIDN'T THINK, TY!
YOU DIDN'T THINK.
AMY: IT WASN'T TY'S FAULT,
BUT DAD'S TALKING LIKE IT WAS HIM WHO SALTED THE HAY.
LOU: WELL, DAD HAD A LOT RIDING ON THAT HORSE.
YEAH, BUT COME ON, LOU.
A LOOSE HORSE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT?
IT HAD TO BE A SETUP.
YOU THINK SOMEONE'S TRYING TO FRAME TY?
WELL, I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT I DON'T GET IS WHY ANYONE
WOULD WANNA MAKE SURE DAD'S HORSE LOST.
WELL, LIGHTNING WAS THE FAVOURITE,
SO IF YOU WANNA MAKE A LOT OF MONEY
YOU BET ON THE LONG SHOT.
LIKE "COMET", LISA'S HORSE.
YOU WANNA BE THE ONE TO TELL GRAMPA
THAT HIS GIRLFRIEND RIGGED THE RACE?
AMY: LOU, THIS ISN'T FUNNY.
TY COULD LOSE HIS JOB AT THE TRACK.
AND ANYONE COULD HAVE RIGGED THAT!
YEAH, ANYONE LOOKING TO MAKE A BIG PAYDAY.
A SURE THING.
NO RISK INVOLVED.
WADE: COME ON, LILY, ANSWER YOUR PHONE.
(HARD PUNCH)
I KNOW WHO DID IT AT THE TRACK,
WITH THE SALT.
WADE.
TY...
TY, PLEASE, YOU GOTTA BELIEVE ME.
I JUST WENT TO SEE HIM YESTERDAY
SO I COULD CLEAR THINGS UP ONCE AND FOR ALL.
BUT THERE HE WAS AT THE TRACK,
AND HE...
HE STARTS TALKING.
HE MAKES EVERYTHING SOUND SO REASONABLE,
LIKE WE CAN JUST PUT THE BAD STUFF BEHIND US
AND HAVE A REAL FUTURE-
SO WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE, MOM?
GO.
GO BE WITH HIM IF YOU WANT TO.
NO.
I MADE A MISTAKE.
LOOK, WE BOTH KNOW I'M NOT PERFECT.
BRINGING YOU INTO THE WORLD
WAS THE BEST THING THAT I EVER DID.
SO IF I HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN YOU
AND ANYTHING ELSE,
I CHOOSE YOU.
(CAR SPEEDING)
(LATCH POPS OPEN)
(TRUNK SLAMS SHUT)
(CHAIN RATTLES)
(CAR SPEEDING)
(TIRES CRUNCHING TO A HALT)
LILY: WADE.
GET IN THE HOUSE, MOM.
TY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS.
GET IN THE HOUSE NOW, MOM!
YOU KNOW, TY, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU, MY WIFE THERE,
SHE'D BE AT HOME WITH ME WHERE SHE BELONGS.
NOW MAYBE YOU HAVEN'T FIGURED IT OUT YET,
BUT SHE'S GONNA CHOOSE ME EVERYTIME!
SO WHY DON'T YOU JUST GIVE IT UP, BUDDY?
JUST DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR, WADE, AND LEAVE.
RIGHT NOW.
WHY IS THAT?
YOU GONNA HIT ME, TY?
YOU GONNA HIT ME LIKE YOU DID LAST TIME?
WHAT'RE YOU GONNA DO, TY?
I GOT NEWS FOR YOU, MAN.
THIS TIME I'M SOBER,
AND MY BACK'S NOT TURNED TO YOU.
WHAT THE HELL, LET'S MAKE IT EVEN STEVEN.
(TIRE IRON CLANKS ON GROUND)
COME ON, GIVE ME YOUR BEST SHOT.
COME ON, TOUGH GUY.
COME ON, YOU GOT IT IN YOU, DON'T YOU?
COME ON, LET'S GO.
YOU GOT IT IN YOU. LET'S GO.
COME ON, COME ON. (HARD SHOVE)
YEAH. NOW, OKAY.
READY? LET'S GO.
(GRUNTS AND STRUGGLING)
AMY: TY, NO!
TY!
WADE: COME ON, MAN, DO IT!
SHOW THESE PEOPLE YOUR TRUE COLOURS, MAN.
HIT ME!
DO IT.
TY: YOU KNOW WHAT, WADE?
(BREATHING HARD) YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT.
YOU NEVER WERE.
THAT'S SOME TOUGH TALK.
TO BAD THAT'S ALL IT IS.
JACK: YOU'RE TRESPASSING ON MY PROPERTY.
BEST BE MOVING ON.
YEAH, I GET IT.
YOU COMING, LILY? LET'S GO.
COME ON, LILY,
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU.
LET'S GO. I FORGIVE YOU. I'M NOT MAD AT YOU ANYMORE.
LET'S GO.
YOU'RE NOT MAD AT ME?
STAY WITH YOUR SON THEN.
HAVE A GOOD LIFE.
JACK: HEY!
DON'T FORGET THIS.
(TIRE IRON CLANKS ON GROUND)
IN CASE YOU HAVE A FLAT ON YOUR WAY OUT OF HERE.
(CAR DOOR OPENING)
CLAY: WELL, NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTED TO BE BRINGING HOME,
BUT I TELL YOU WHAT,
IT FEELS JUST ABOUT AS HEAVY AS A HORSE.
JACK AND CLAY: (CHUCKLING)
CLAY: I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS, JACK.
I'M JUST GLAD YOUR SON'S GONNA GET SOME USE
OUT OF THIS OLD PIANO.
YEAH.
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO THANK YOU THOUGH.
HOW ABOUT A FREE COPY OF YOUR FIRST CD?
ALL RIGHT.
I'LL SEE YA.
LILY: (SIGHING HEAVILY)
YOU KNOW, TY, I'M SO SORRY
MY COMING HERE CAUSED SO MANY PROBLEMS.
I'M STILL GLAD YOU CAME.
I WANT YOU TO HAVE THIS.
WHAT IS IT?
IT'S THE MONEY YOU GAVE ME.
YEAH, I GAVE IT TO YOU.
I KNOW, AND IT WAS SO SWEET OF YOU.
BUT YOU TOLD ME YOU WANNA GO TO UNIVERSITY,
AND YOU'RE GONNA NEED THIS.
ARE YOU OKAY, MOM?
YEAH.
I'M JUST SO PROUD OF YOU.
(AFFECTIONATE SIGH)
TY: HAVE A SAFE TRIP, MOM.
♪ Try to bridge the space between us ♪
♪ The longest road I walk along ♪
♪ The hardest part is letting go... ♪
WHAT'S GOING ON, LOU?
THIS IS MY HALF
AND THAT IS YOUR HALF,
BUT NOW IT'S ORGANIZED.
SO, YOU PUT EVERYTHING BACK?
I GUESS I'D RATHER SHARE THIS SPACE
WITH SIX GENERATIONS OF JUNK,
THAN BE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO CAN FIT THEIR WHOLE LIFE
INTO A COUPLE OF SUITCASES.
SO WHAT?
YOU'RE SAYING WE'RE ROOMMATES?
SURE.
BUT IF ANY OF YOUR STUFF CROSSES THIS LINE
I'M THROWING IT OUT.
TY?
HEY.
TURNS OUT MY MOM DID HAVE A BABY PICTURE OF ME
AFTER ALL.
AMY: (LAUGHS SOFTLY)
LOOK AT THOSE CHUBBY CHEEKS.
TY AND AMY: (CHUCKLING)
I WAS PRETTY ADORABLE, WASN'T I?
YEAH.
YOU STILL ARE.
