Previously on Heartland...
I'm doing a working cow horse competition out near Brayburn,
might worry about my odds of winning
if you and Blue were involved.
I might just throw my hat in the ring.
I got some news about Dan. He, uh, passed away.
I accept your offer
to go to the funeral with me, if that's okay.
I need to be here for her.
Go to Brayburn this weekend and ride Blue for me.
You're gonna understand me the same way
you understand Grandpa.
You got it, Amy! You got it!
- I'm Brandon, AKA Top Gun. - We got a new rider?
- Looks like she's scared. - Okay, what's your plan?
I wanna work on it when no one will see me.
You're gonna need someone that knows something about bikes.
If something's right, then you know it in your gut.
- Love that girl. - You know it's worth it.
Even though, deep down, you know it isn't?
Sometimes, things take effort.
?? The time is right now ?
? No standin' still ?
? Get your mind right here ?
? For somethin' you ain't ever seen ?
? You better get movin' ?
? Ready or not ?
? It's 'bout to go down, here it comes now ?
? Better get movin', ready or not ?
? It's 'bout to go down, here it comes now ?
? Get ready ?
? Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh ?
? Get ready ?
? Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh ??
- You made it. - Hey, guys.
Sweet wheels, Katie. Looking good.
Seriously? Maybe if it was 1982.
You did a great job cleaning it up. Come on.
Let's see what it can do.
- Hey, Caleb. What's up? - Hi!
Well, I had to come wish you good luck.
Glad I caught you before you hit the road.
- Are you excited? - Sort of.
- Sort of? - Yeah.
I mean, I'm excited that Blue gets to show off
a little, but it's just? it's not my world.
I don't know any of these people,
and I'm gonna miss Lyndy.
I get that. The road can be a bit of a lonely place,
but it's just a few days.
Yeah, okay. I have something for you.
- For me? - Mmhm!
Anticipation's killing me!
Yeah, yeah.
It's no big deal, but I had this made for Carson.
What? No, this is a huge deal. Amy, wow.
This is so thoughtful.
I know what it's like to get your first horse.
Okay, I should probably get going.
Um, I don't have Carson this weekend...
Or much of anything else planned.
Text, call if you get bored?
I might just do that.
- See you. - See you.
Oh, man.
Need a hand, neighbour?
?? And at the break of day ?
? You sank into a dream ?
? You dreamer ?
? Ah-ah-ah-ah ??

So what are you doing out in this neck of the woods anyway?
Headed to the same place as you.
My grandpa can't make it to Brayburn,
so I'm taking his place with Blue.
Oh, no...
- What? - I'm missing the...
The key thingy for the lug nuts.
I must've left it out when I rotated the tires.
Don't sweat it. I'll give you a lift.
Worry about it after the competition.
Come on, let's load your horse into my trailer.
So how's it coming along?
Oh, all right.
I'm still kind of surprised
that Dan's family asked me to speak.
Don't you think it's a little bit weird?
Oh, I don't think so.
There's a lot of memories you could share.
Mm... no one wants to hear
about our epic arguments, that's for sure.
No, I guess not. What are you gonna go with?
Well, I was thinking about the first time
that we went skiing together and how he convinced me
to go off the trail...
And we, of course, got lost, and it started getting dark.
- Oh, it sounds scary. - Yeah!
Especially for him because I wanted to tear
his smug little head off.
You should've seen his look of relief
when the rescue patrol showed up and saved him from me.
Okay, so you are gonna go with story that ends
- in an epic argument. - No! I mean, no.
It's a story about how he was adventurous
and, um, he was kind of fun.
Freezing to death on the back side of a mountain, that's fun?
You know what I mean. I... I...
I think about it as being carefree.
And... I don't know, we're so caught up
in our businesses and supporting the family
and we don't got a lot of time for adventure these days.
I don't know, Lise.
You know, every day with you is an adventure in itself.
Aw.
So you, um, left Hudson way back in high school?
- Yeah. - Why'd you move?
- Oh, that's ancient history. - Okay.
You're glad to be back?
It's all right.
Maybe not for my dad and Grandpa.
- That's just business. - Seems pretty personal to me.
Well... business can get that way.
You, uh, going to that reception tonight at the arena?
You know, I think I might.
Good chance to check out the competition.
- You? - I don't think so.
Word on the street is there's gonna be beef on a bun.
- We're the sponsor. - Oh.
I think I'd rather just grab a sandwich
at the gas station or something.
- Hey, Caleb. - hey!
- Did you make it safe and sound? - Barely.
I blew a tire and just about ended up in a ditch.
- Oh, no! - Yeah!
And I left the wheel lock key in the barn,
so I couldn't even change the tire.
Wait, how'd you get to Brayburn?
- Nathan Pryce. - Nathan Pryce, the enemy?
Oh, yeah. It was a real fun trip.
Well, at least you made it.
Yeah. Lucky me. Now, I'm in a hotel room
with a TV set that doesn't even work.
Well, they usually kick these things off
- with some kind of party. - Why would I go to that?
It's not my thing, and I'm by myself.
No, I get it. I've been to my fair share
of rodeo functions, and sometimes hanging out
with a group of strangers is lonelier
than just being on your own.
But who knows? Maybe you'll have some fun.
Yeah, I guess it would take my mind off missing Lyndy so much.
Exactly.
Okay. I'll go for, like, an hour.
Atta girl. And I'll talk to you later, okay?
Okay. See you.
- Hey, want some help? - Oh, yeah, sure.
- Do you wanna start a salad? - Sure.
Sure is quiet with Mom away at Dad's.
Yeah, almost too quiet,
especially with you out and about all day.
Uh, I was hanging out with friends.
Oh. Would one of those friends happen to be
that boy you met at the community dance?
- Yeah, Brandon. - Ah.
And this girl, Ellie,
who I think might be his girlfriend.
Oh. Are you sure?
No, but she does kind of hate me.
Honey, that can't be true.
I don't know, I'm not even sure I should be
hanging out with them.
Well, it sounds a little tricky,
but may I ask how you feel about Brandon?
Interested at all?
I mean, I'm still getting to know him,
but if he has a girlfriend, I'm totally not going there.
Smart girl.
You know, honestly, since Parker kind of drifted
out of my life, I?m...
I'm more excited at the chance to make some new friends.
Sure, yeah. So maybe just put a little effort
into winning this Ellie over,
let her know that you're not a threat,
and the temperature will go down on it.
- Yeah. Thanks. - Mmhm.
?? If you see me standing on my own ?
? It's 'cause I'm waiting just for you ?
? If you see me ?
? Should I try to get over you? ?
Hi, um, just a water, please.
Thank you.
Change your mind about checkin' out the competition?
Heh. Oh, is that what you were doing over there?
Looks like you should probably
get back to discussing your cow work strategy.
Nathan, come back!
- Hi! - Hello, Nathan!
- I'm so sorry! - No, it was my fault. I...
- I... - You okay, Amy?
- Here. - Thank you.
I'll see you tomorrow.
- Ah! What? - Oh, hey! Hey!
Caleb! What are you doing here?
I thought you might like some company at this thing.
- Did you get into a fight? - I took a shower in red wine.
Do you wanna give me a lift back to the motel?
Yeah, of course. I mean, you should probably
definitely change before we go back in there.
Oh, no. I'm done with this place.
- Let's grab a pizza or something. - Yeah, you got it.
Just let me get changed real quick.
- Oh, no. - What?
I think I left the keys inside.
What's with you and keys today?
I know! I'll just? I'll go to the office.
No, no, no. It's okay, look. The window's a crack open.
I think I can probably slide in through there.
It's a bit jammed.
Caleb, I can just go to the office.
- No. I got this. Don't worry. - All right.
Can you reach the doorknob?
- Almost! - Okay, here.
Oh! Oh! Agh!
- Oh! - Oh...
Ow!
- Loop-de-loop, shorty! - Okay, but really,
- what were you thinking? - I don't know!
You know, I was thinking
that I didn't want you to have to go all the way downstairs.
Mm, so instead, you almost break the window and your neck.
- Yeah. - Mmhm.
Hey, but between that and figuring out the whole
remote control thing, I kind of saved the day, you know, twice.
Yeah. And they say there's not enough heroes in the world.
Honestly, though, I am glad you came.
And even though my shirt is probably ruined,
it gave us an excuse to get out of there.
Yeah, I'm just fine staying in too.
Back in the day, I used to love to party on the circuit.
But now, I definitely prefer a one-on-one
with someone I actually like hanging out with.
Well, I appreciate it, but you didn't have to drive
all the way here just to keep me company.
- It was nothing. - No, it was sweet.
Caleb... you are one of the most important people
in my life, and I don't know what I would do without you.
So thank you.
Caleb, I...
I didn't... I didn't mean it like that.
I'm sorry.
No...
- Hi. - Hi.
Just checkin' to see if you're okay.
- Oh, hey. - Hi.
Um... ahem.
Sorry, I didn't realize you had company.
- I'll, uh, see you tomorrow. - Yeah.
Um, I should probably get going too.
Uh... yeah.
Um, drive safe?
You too.
I mean... have a good night.
Mmhm. You too.
Don't you two look nice!
Oh, thanks. I have to admit, I'm a little bit nervous.
- Oh, you're gonna do great. - Of course, you will.
You'll be all right on your own today?
Yeah, for sure. Probably just do some writing or something.
- Have a little fun. - Thanks.
Okay, honey. We'll see you later.
Bye.
Hey, Brandon, uh, I can meet you guys
on the trail in a half hour?
Okay.
Whoa, boy.
- Whoa! - Oh! I'm so sorry.
- I? - Amy.
Hey.
Sorry about last night.
- I, uh, didn't mean to intrude. - No, it's fine.
Good luck out there today.
You too.
I think it's ruined.
Um, the shirt.
You came to check on me,
so I thought I would fill you in.
Next up, we have the veteran team
of Nathan Pryce and his horse, Montana.
These two have done well in the working cow horse
competition in the past. Let's see if they can
keep the bar up to that same level today.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Put your hands together for Nathan and Montana!
Now, remember, ladies and gentlemen,
the horse and rider are being scored out of 80,
70 being considered average, and the score for Nathan?
75! Nice job, nice job, team.
Next up, couple of first-time competitors from Hudson.
Give a warm welcome to True Blue Skies
ridden by Amy Fleming, owned by Jack Bartlett.
Easy.
Hold up.
Oof.
Easy now. Gotta stay in control.
That ended up more like a bronc drive, didn't it?
But some love for Amy and Blue, would you please?
They just got their first session
under their belts.
Our judges have weighed in. The score?
65. Chin up.
It'll only get better from here.
Whoa.
This could be a really awesome jump.
You mean, like, over the water?
Yeah. Wouldn't that be cool?
- Not if you don't clear it. - You can totally do it.
- You think so? - Yeah, if you hit it right.
Yeah, I guess.
Carpe diem, Katie.
- I'm gonna do it. - Yes, let's go!
- Come on, Brandon. - You've got this.
Oh-ho! Yes!
Oh, my gosh. Heh.
That was freakin' awesome!
You guys gotta try it. Who's up next?
Uh, you go ahead, Ellie.
I know you can clear it, no problem.
Thanks, but I think you're too scared to try it.
No, it's just... well, you're a much better rider than I am.
- So... - Yup, she's scared.
- Ellie, leave her alone. - No, it's okay.
She's right. I mean, dirt biking is about taking chances,
just going for it.
I'll just go as fast as I can, right?
Yeah.
Just lift up with your whole body as you hit the edge.
Okay.
Come on, Katie. You can do this.
No fear. No fear.
Come on, Katie! Carpe diem!
Okay, I knew she was scared, but that was pathetic.
Ellie, that's enough. Okay? You okay?
You okay?
Yeah. It was a lot.
Well, you did great.
You had people in stitches, and then tears.
Thank you. I'm relieved it's over.
It was pretty sad.
It's another reminder that life's a ride
and you never know when your turn's up.
Mmhm. Do you think we're living our best lives?
I know that my life's never been better
since you came into it.
That doesn't really answer my question. Okay.
What are we gonna do for lunch?
Oh, I think there's some leftover casserole
in the fridge.
No, no. We're dressed up. Let's go do something.
You know, there's a new pub in town that's supposed to be cool.
It's the middle of the day.
So? Let's live a little.
All right.
Guess it's true what they say.
- Bad luck comes in threes. - Sorry?
The flat tire,
the, heh, wine gate,
then you lay an egg in the reining event.
Nice.
Just calling it like I see it.
Yeah, except I wasn't asking.
Think you can pull it together for the cow work?
Are you trying to psych me out?
No, you're doing a good enough job of that all on your own.
Your mind's obviously somewhere else, and Blue can sense that.
- Can I offer you some advice? - Oh, good. Cowboy psychologist?
No, I've just done this a lot, so I know what I'm doing.
When your cow gets turned out,
you have to gauge his energy right away.
- If he's wild, run him a little. - I thought I was
supposed to box him in before I take him down the rail.
I'm talking quick turns, back and forth, back and forth.
Tire 'em out so they're easier to control the rest of the way.
Okay.
Should I trust you?
You don't have to do anything.
I'm just trying to help change your luck.
- Oh, I love this song. - Well, me too.
It's an oldie but a goodie.
Let's dance.
Now?
Dance floor is right there.
There's nobody on it.
Well, we will change that.
Put our dance lessons to good use.
- Lisa. - This is what I'm talking about
'cause life can be short. Seize all the moments.
Come on!
?? My day dreams weren't ?
? Always about you ?
Oh, can I remember how to do this?
Quick, quick, slow.
- Quick, quick, slow. - Quick, quick, slow.
Slow. Quick, quick, slow.
What?what are you doing?
- That's my buckle. - What?!
Yeah, yeah.
All-around cowboy,
Ponoka Stampede, 1967.
That's the first time I won there.
Well, what is it doing here?
Oh, I sold it. Lyndy and I were short on money,
and I've regretted it ever since.
Well, honey, we need to talk to someone.
There, I think that's the manager. Come on.
? Talkin' in my sleep again ??
Excuse me.
Hi there, are you the manager?
I actually own the place.
Even better. Jack Bartlett.
Devon. Did you enjoy your lunch?
- Yes! - We did, thank you very much.
Say, you have a buckle that I won.
It's in that case over there.
- No kidding. Oh. - Yeah.
- Ponoka stampede, 1967. - That's so cool.
Now, I found that at an antique store last year.
Yeah. Well, here's the thing.
I'm hoping you'll sell it back to me,
and I'll pay you fair market value.
That buckles worth, like, 500...
- What, dollars?! Come on! - Don't stress.
Don't stress 'cause it's not for sale.
It's just too fun, you know?
A buckle from Ponoka, can't get any kitschier
- than that, right? - Heh, you good?
- At pool, I mean. - I've won a few tournaments.
Oh. Care to make a wager?
Lisa, what are you doing?
If you beat my husband, then we'll give you $500,
but if Jack wins, then we get to take the buckle home.
Okay, this is a bad idea.
What's the worst that could happen?
We lose $500!
This is excitement. This is adventure.
Okay? What do you say?
- Rack 'em up. - Okay.
What are you guys doing here?
Well, we just wanted to make sure that you were okay.
Why did you just take off like that?
I was just done with dirt biking for the day.
- Are you home by yourself? - Uh, yeah.
- Everyone's out. - Well, you gonna invite us in?
Well, I didn't ask if I could have anyone over.
Seriously? This is your house too.
Come on, we should have a little bit of fun.
I can make us all lunch.
Yeah, I guess we could hang out for a bit.
All right, let's see what you got in these cupboards.
?? Don't get me started on loving you ?
? Don't get me started ?
? It just won't do ?
? Well, we said our last goodbye ?
? Now, it's your time to cry, baby ?
? Don't get me started ?
Corner pocket.
? On love ??
That hurts. That hurts.
Ooh! Corner pocket.
?? Like a rose in the desert ?
? You have a special love for rain ?
Well...
- Fair's fair, Devon. - Wait!
What about me? I wanna give it a try.
- Lisa! - I wanna play the winner.
Look, I would love to take your money,
but I actually do have some paperwork to get to, so.
I'll double it, make it an even thousand.
Is she for real?
Honey, I'm all for excitement and adventure,
but $1000 can buy us
a lot of excitement and adventure in other ways.
No, but I know how important this buckle is to you.
So... I'd like to give it a try.
Have you ever even played before?
Yeah, yeah! A couple times.
Give us another chance.
All right. You're on.
And I'll tell you what, I'll even let you break first.
Oh, thanks!
? ...one for me ??
And there they go!
They're gonna need to turn that cow back without using the rail.
Come on, buddy!
- Yeah! Come on! - Good job!
Now, the last thing is to get that cow
into the middle of the arena, turn her back
in both directions.
Go! Come on!
Atta boy! Come on, come on!
Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah!
Textbook!
You can see Nathan and Montana have
obviously done this before,
and their score is...
Wow, 75 points!
Impressive!
And here's Amy and Blue once again.
Good boy, Blue. You got this.
Hup!
See what Amy is doing there?
She's running that cow back and forth just
to tire him out a little bit.
Get up! Get up!
Come on!
Well, this is a much better start
to this day than we saw in reining!
Hup, hup, hup, hup!
Now, it's all about the finish.
Can they keep it together this time?
Hup, hup!
Look at this, folks! What a comeback for these two!
Let's see what our judges think of that run.
Apparently, they liked it!
Amy and Blue have a 76!
That puts them in first place in the cow work division!
- 76.76! Can you believe it? - Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Just don't forget whose advice made that happen.
- Yeah, yeah. - Isn't that right, Molly?
- Huh? - You know, when we first met,
and you were talking about Molly, I just totally
assumed that she was your wife or girlfriend.
Nope, don't have either of those.
Obviously.
It's just the way you were flirting with those girls
- at the reception. - Flirting?
Mmhm.
- Uh-huh. - Yeah, no, I get it.
I mean, I'm not judging.
I can see how the playboy life would be appealing.
Not even close.
For one thing, playboys have money.
- That sure ain't me. - Yeah, right.
The amount of money that you're putting
into your marketing campaign, come on, now.
Well, yeah, and it might just bankrupt us,
but we need to get ourselves out there if we want to compete.
Yeah, with my dad and Grandpa.
No, actually,
with the factory farms.
I feel?I feel like...
Family-run ranches
are in this together.
Doing things the right way, even though it costs a lot more.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to jump to conclusions.
Nah, don't worry about it.
I kind of assumed I'd kick your butt in the cow work, so.
Even Steven, I guess.
- Love the place, Katie. - Thanks.
Here you go.
- Great job, El. - Yeah!
Perfect hot dog to mac' and cheese ratio.
Seems like we could use something for this lunch, though.
Something to wash it down with?
We have some lemonade or ice tea.
We have this place all to ourselves.
We could use something a little stronger.
Like maybe some of this.
- Uh... - Just a taster.
- No one's gonna notice. - I don't think that's
- a good idea. - Come on, Katie.
You have to stop living your life in fear.
Okay, I said no. Put it back, now.
I am done doing stupid things to impress you guys.
- Katie? - No, don't even start
with that "carpe diem" BS.
I'm not a daredevil, and I'm not a risk taker.
I'm okay with that.
Sorry you're not.
I think you both should leave.
See? I told you. She's totally lame.
Looks like your truck is where we left it.
- Is that... - Caleb.
Guess your boyfriend's trying to score some brownie points
for whatever he did last night.
What? He's the one who got you off your game
earlier today, isn't he?
He didn't do anything.
And he's not my boyfriend.
All right. I'll get your horse.
?? When the girl that you'd die for leaves you ?
- ? Where do you begin? ?? - Hey.
I had some extra time, figured that this was
the least I could do.
You know, Caleb, you really didn't have to.
Well, I didn't come all the way out here
just to change your tire, I was hoping we might meet
in person since you keep ignoring my phone calls.
I've just been processing. I didn't quite know what to say.
Well, that's why I've been trying to get through to you.
Amy, there really isn't anything that needs to be said.
I made a mistake, okay?
I got carried away in the moment, and I promise
that nothing like this will ever happen again.
- Okay, but... - No, just, really,
you don't need to say anything else.
- Drive safe, okay? - You too.
Nice break, Lise!
?? I don't know why ?
? I'm done with hiding, time to say goodbye ?
? I'm talkin' about love ?
Looks like I'm low ball.
? Where'd I go wrong ?
? Well, I burned my bridges ?
? Now I'm moving on ?
- Guess I'm up. - Mmhm.
? I'll soon be gone ?
? Talk about love, love ?
? Love, where'd I go wrong? ?
? Gonna find myself some reason ?
? Gonna get myself some rum ?
? I'll tell you this time, baby ?
? Well, it's gonna be just fine this time ?
? Let's talk about love ?
? Love ?
? Talk about love ?
? Love ?
? Talk about love ??
- Eh. - Eight ball, side pocket.
Lisa, you did it!
- I've been totally hustled. - No, you haven't.
Maybe you assumed that you could beat me because I'm a woman
or I'm a little bit older than you?
Can you please just take your buckle and leave.
Okay.
Well, where in the name of Minnesota Fats
did you learn to shoot pool like that?
- You really wanna know? - Yes!
- Dan taught me. - Is that a fact.
Mmhm. Back when we first got into thoroughbreds,
we needed a way to blow off some steam
every time our horses lost.
Well, your horses must've lost a lot!
Yeah, they sure did, especially...
Back in the early days, and we took our frustrations out
on that pool table.
You know, Dan and I, we certainly had
our differences, but the fact that he actually played a part
in gettin' this buckle back...
Kind of makes up for it all.
- Hey! - Silly. Hi!
How come you two don't look like you just came
from a funeral!
Well, we actually had quite the afternoon.
And I'll tell you all about it as soon as I get out
of these banker's clothes.
Hello. Come on in.
There's someone here to see you.
I'm really sorry.
Ellie was just totally out of line.
Then why didn't you say anything?
Well, I've never had a drink of whisky
or anything else.
I sort of have this image that, you know, goes along
with the dirt biking and carpe diem BS.
Yeah, well, that image isn't why I like to hang out with you.
You're a nice guy.
Well, thanks. You know... I don't care
if you don't want to be a daredevil.
I think you're really cool just the way you are.
Really?
Thanks.
Well, um, I should get going,
but I'll text you tomorrow.
Sure. Sounds good.
- Guess who's back! - GG! Lisa!
- Hi! - Welcome home, you two!
- How did it go? - It went so good!
We had pizza, cake,
watched TV, and had a party with glow sticks!
Wow! Did you get any sleep at this sleepover?
- We didn't have time. - Oh, I see.
So how about you and Blue?
I'm dying to hear how you made out.
Well, we had a bit of a rough start in the reining.
Oh, does that mean...
Mmhm, Nathan got the best of us in that one.
But we made a comeback
and took him in the cow work session.
- Ah-ha! Way to go, Blue! - And Amy!
And Amy, of course!
Yeah, no, he was absolutely amazing, Grandpa.
You two really need to try it together next time.
Yeah, well.
Can I go to bed now, Mommy?
Yes, sweetheart, you can.
Lisa, do you mind making sure she brushes her teeth?
- Oh, I certainly will. - Thanks.
I'll be right back to tuck you in.
- Hey. - Hey.
So look, um... I'm sorry, Amy.
Caleb, you already apologized for last night.
No, this isn't for that, this is for today.
Actually, it's for that apology.
I wasn't being real with you.
I lied. It wasn't just a moment.
The truth is that I have developed feelings for you,
and... I hate myself for it.
I feel I've betrayed my two best friends
in the whole world, that's you and Ty.
- Caleb... - No, Amy.
Look, I didn't sleep a wink last night.
I feel so torn up.
You haven't betrayed anyone.
You've been going through so much lately, and...
Maybe I'm partially to blame too
because... Caleb, I do love you.
Just not that way.
I know.
So, uh, where do we go from here?
Can we just pretend that last night never happened?
Your friendship is so important to me.
And I'm not gonna let one moment ruin that.
Thank you, Amy.
'Cause your friendship means the world to me too.
So we're good?
Yeah, we're good.
I'm already over it.
So how did your competition go?
Actually, it went pretty good.
Yeah, we ran that calf down the rail.
Nice! You get him turned in the centre all right?
Yeah!
