Amy: Previously on "heartland":
- Are you going to the wedding? - If you're going, I'll go.
- Do you see my sister over there?
Do you think you could dance with her?
- Sir, you're bleeding! - That's my wife's blood!
- No, you've been shot!
Doctor: Your husband developed a condition
Known as deep vein thrombosis. We lost him.

- Wow, your friends from new york are awfully generous.
Look at all this stuff! - I know.
- I'm surprised you even told them there was a wedding.
- Well, I didn't.
Caleb posted it on social media (tim chuckles)
And so, now, everybody knows, the whole world,
That our non-wedding was actually a wedding.
- (clucks tongue) well, there truly is no privacy anymore,
Is there? - No.
It never ceases to amaze me what people post.
So there's this new guest at the dude ranch today,
And she calls herself a "birdfluencer."
- (scoffs) - right? I know.
But she's actually a pretty good photographer,
And she has 20,000 followers.
- Well, 20,000 and one, now.
- No, I'm just doing research.
So lou asked me if I would fill in for her
When she's away at that conference.
- I hope you didn't feel obligated.
- No, of course not.
It was a little last minute, so I was momentarily annoyed,
But... I've realized ever since the cattle drive
That I need to make more of an effort with lou.
I wanna stay on her good side.
- Well, I've been doing that since she was born. (laughs)
- All right, I guess I should go over there and...
Make sure everything's ready. - No!
- Wish me luck. - You don't need it.
You're the most overqualified dude ranch manager of all time.
You got this. - Thank you!
- You're sure the guy you saw was grady?
- Yeah, I am.
- Why isn't he locked up somewhere with his pal,
J.D. Werth? - I don't know.
- (sighs heavily)

Thank you for your hard work in cleaning up the dude ranch;
It looks great over there. - Thanks!
The welcome refreshments are pretty much good to go.
- All right! You are both amazing.
- I'm glad you think so,
But frankly, our talents are being wasted on menial labour,
Not to mention the pay is pathetically low.
I think a 20% increase in our wages
Would only be fair.
- Uh... Okay, well, that's not really my department.
I'm just filling in for lou,
So you're gonna have to ask her when she gets back.
Um, where does your mom keep the extra linens?
- Uh, just down the hall. - Okay. All right.
I'll be right back.
- You know my mom's in charge, right?
There's no point asking jessica for a raise.
- I know, but I'm just sick and tired
Of being taken for granted all the time.
I'm taking a break.

- And this is my mother, gladys.
- I was just looking at your bird photography online.
It is beautiful. - That's kind of you to say.
Richard, do you really expect me to stay here?
- Just give it a chance, mother.
- Jessica, what do you think of a son
Who let his mother stay with him at his home?
It's not enough that I endured
Twelve hours of labour
Bringing him into this world,
But I've also flown all the way across the pond
Just to see him.
- It's just for a few days,
Until the house renos are finished.
- As I recall, you were doing house renos
The last time I visited.
You made me stay at that dreary motel.
- It was literally the most expensive hotel in banff.
- And wasn't carl away on a business trip then, too?
- Carl's work is very time-consuming.
But he does wish-- - don't--

If I'm not mistaken...
(birdsong) that is a pine grosbeak.
You may as well go, richard. I'll be fine here.
At least the birds won't abandon me.

I love her, but there's only so much I can take.

Was because lou promised me
A sighting of a mountain bluebird.

And I simply cannot disappoint them.
Ornithologists can be a rather fickle bunch.

Well, uh, some of the most beautiful photographs
That I have ever taken have been on a trail ride.

I don't know how to live in a world
Where grady wakes up every day and ty doesn't.

(chuckles) he travelled the world
To save endangered animals.

But we're not always the best versions of ourselves

Just outside of okotoks.
If you head over there,
You're guaranteed to see a bluebird.

- My son has decided to spend the day with me.
He's obviously feeling guilty about dumping me here.
- Not the reason.
- Is it okay if he joins us on the trail ride?
- Oh yeah, of course, I'll just tack up another horse.
Um, but before we go, listen, I wanted to tell you something.
I know that lou had promised you
A mountain bluebird sighting, but as you know,
They are very rare, and-- - jessica!
(hooves thud, horses snort)
- Uh... Uh, could you just excuse me for just one sec.
(horse snorts)
- (whispers) we found one! - You did? Are you sure?
- We can show you where the nest is.
- (whispers) that is amazing!
And as I was saying,
Lou promised you a bluebird sighting,
And that is exactly what you are gonna get.
Thank you, girls.
Both: (sigh happily) - off we go!
(latch creaks)
(champ snorts)
- (sighs heavily) all right.
Let's give this a shot, huh?

You were right about this place, richard.
It's wonderful.
- I'm just so pleased you're happy, mother.
- Stop slouching; you'll end up with a hunchback.
Thank you for making this happen, jessica.
I'm giving this place my highest recommendation
On all my social media.
Prepare to have an influx of birders booking in.
- Well, lou will be thrilled,
But it's really katie and parker
Who deserve all of the credit,
'cause I put them in charge of finding the nest
And they really delivered.
- Well done, girls.
- We also saw a great blue heron not too far from here.
- Woo! - And a ruby-crowned kinglet.
We can show you, if you're interested.
- I am most definitely interested. Lead the way!
That's it! Ooh!
- The last time I saw my mother this happy
Was at my father's funeral. - (chuckles)

- Good job. Good job, tim.
- Jack, I was wrong.
I never should've dragged you to that gas station with me.
I'm sorry.
I'm grateful you were there, though,
'cause if you weren't,
I probably would've done something
That I regretted a lot more. - Yeah.
If you didn't hit him, I probably would have.
- I don't think so.
You're a good man, jack.
Truth is, I didn't have a lot of those growin' up.
Didn't know what a good man was 'til I met you,
So thank you.
And don't let that go to your head,
'cause you can be real self-righteous.
And bossy. - Okay, okay,
Just go back to work.
- Bossy.
(footsteps thud on stairs) tim: Hey!
- Hey. - (sighs)
So?
How'd everything work out at the dude ranch?
- Uh, it was a good day, actually.
How are you?
- Had a good day, too. - Good, I'm glad to hear it.
- (sighs)
I dumped this.
- (relieved sigh) okay.
- I shouldn't have left the other night
Without saying anything, I'm sorry.
- Well, you left me alone in the dark.
- I know.
- Don't ever do that to me again.
- I won't.
I promise, I won't.
- From now on, we face the hard times together, okay?
Come here. (light kiss)
