08x16 - Faking It

[bunniefuu]

Lou: Previously on "Heartland"...

Olivia: Nice, huh? My dad just got him for me.

His name is Winner, and that's just what I intend on doing.

There's no chance that you're still seeing Cassandra, right?

Caleb. Caleb!

Jack: The real reason you're going to Moose Jaw is so you can screw up Miranda's wedding?

Well, I have to say congratulations!

(Struggling grunts, keys jingle)

Tim: Give me-ah, hey!

(Jack grunts)

Lou: It's over, Amy. Peter and I, we've...

We've decided to separate.

(Door bangs shut)

(Footsteps crunch in the snow)

Did I tell you how much I missed you?

Ty: Well, I missed you, too.

I'm glad to hear that Lily's doing so well.

Yeah, the program really seems to be helping.

But it was hard for me to see her there, but I'm glad I went.

Do you think she's gonna make it to the wedding?

Well, she's pretty determined to be there.

Amy: Speaking of that...

Are you sure that you're okay with the venue?

I'm happy with it, if you're happy with it.

I'd marry you anywhere.

Amy: (Laughs and sighs)

I wish I could just stay here all day, like this.

I honestly can't take much more sleeping on the floor, Lou. My neck is k*lling me.

Lou: Look, you don't have to sleep on the floor. I told you that.

Peter: Yeah, I know that's what you said, but you're obviously uncomfortable and I don't wanna...

Look, this isn't easy for either of us.

But we only have to make it through a few more days.

Why can't I just sleep on the couch, maybe, just for tonight?

Then what do we tell Georgie when she sees you?

Peter: The truth.

Lou: Peter, we agreed to wait until the audition's over. I...

'kay. It's just it's getting harder and harder to pull this off, and Georgie doesn't miss a thing.

Lou: Look, I know, but she has been talking about this tryout for the extreme team since she didn't make it last year, okay?

Peter: As soon as the audition is over, we are going to make it our priority to help her get through this, right?

Lou: I agree. We'll tell her.

Peter: Okay.

Um... I better go get her. She's done her class by now.

Lou: Um... Peter, I should probably fill grandpa and dad in on what's going on.

Peter: Okay. You sure?

No. But it has to be done.

All right. Well, I should be a part of that.

No. This is... something I have to do on my own.

No, Lou, this is not something you do on your own.

Yes, it is, Peter. I...

Peter: Lou! (Running footsteps)

(Laughs) Hey, kitty cat! What're you doing?

Tim: Uh-huh. Yeah, okay. (Chuckles)

Yeah, I'll meet for coffee. I just gotta finish up some work here.

I'll call you when I'm done. Okay, bye.

(Tim chuckles) Jack: So?

Gonna actually do some work or just stand here grinning like a fool all day?

Tim: Just talking to Casey.

(Hay bale thumps)

Jack: So it sounds like things are pretty good with you two.

Tim: Oh, they couldn't be better.

Yeah, well, I'm glad you...

Got past that whole Moose Jaw thing.

What Moose Jaw thing? I-I never went to the wedding.

What's there to get past? I don't need to tell her anything.

Jack: Oh yeah... Yeah, that's right.

Why be honest and upfront with the woman you might just be in love with.

Lou: Hey, uh... Before you go anywhere, there's something I need to talk to you about inside.

Who? Me or him?

Both of you.

Sandra: The audition's only a few days away, so right now you should all be focused on fine-tuning your tricks.

Okay, I'll see you next time...

And be prepared for a special guest.

Trudie, the extreme team coach, might just drop by, to see how you're all doing!

Girls: No way! Oh my gosh!

Can you believe the coach is gonna come watch us?

No big whoop. I see her all the time.

Georgie: You do?

Olivia: Yeah. She and Sandra are friends.

She drops by during my lessons sometimes.

Trudie's really nice. She's even given me a few tips.

Wait, you still need private lessons?

My dad insisted.

He wants me to k*ll at the audition.

I've been working on an awesome new trick.

I'd say I have the spot on the team pretty much in the bag.

Georgie: Oh, yeah? Well, don't count on it!

Because I know you only joined trick riding to bug me!

So bring it on, because I'm going to whip your butt.

And I've got a new signature trick I'm going to perform that's pretty off the charts, and I've been taking private lessons.

And you know what else?

Peter: Georgie!

Tim: Separating? I can't believe it.

Jack: I thought you two worked this out in Vancouver.

Lou: We tried, but it's just not working anymore.

We're not happy, and I wanna stay here and Peter wants to keep working in Vancouver, so...

Tim: So this is about a job for him? I can't believe that guy.

Dad, don't... don't do that, okay?

'Cause this is just as much me as it is Peter.

So what can we do?

Lou: (Shaky sigh) Well, the-the girls don't know and we wanna keep it that way, for now.

At least until Georgie makes it through her audition, which is important.

So if you could just... keep it to yourselves for now.

Tim: No. No, I don't wanna hear this.

Lou: Dad...

Jack: So... this, this separation, maybe it'll... (Door bangs shut) give you time to sort it out.

Lou: I don't think so, grandpa.

It's probably gonna end in divorce.

Well, you really think it's gonna come to that?

Lou: I didn't think that Peter and I were ever gonna separate, but here we are. So...

I just have to be realistic.

Realistic!

Lou: Katie? How long were you down there for?

Peter: This kind of behaviour is not okay.

Georgie: Okay, well fine!

Peter: No, it's not okay, Georgie!

What is going on here?

Peter: Go ahead.

Georgie: It's just Olivia.

She was bragging about her stupid private lessons and her secret new trick she's gonna perform at the audition and I just... kind of lost it and told her some crap.

Peter: You told her some complete untruths.

Okay, it sounds like Olivia was just trying to wind you up.

Georgie: Well, I know I should've just ignored her, but...

She drives me crazy!

Lou: You know what? Georgie, it's okay. I get it.

Because Olivia kinda drives me crazy, too.

Peter: Oh, no, no. I'm sorry, it's not okay, Lou.

We've been through this before with Olivia, Georgie, and she understands... hey! That it's not acceptable to...

Lou: That's not what I meant, Peter.

You know how I feel about lying.

But Olivia is a challenging personality, and you... and you raise some excellent points that, you know, I think Georgie should really reflect on, right?

Georgie: Uh... sure.

Lou: (Sighs heavily)

Peter: (Sighs)

(Birds chirp) Lou: Hey...

Look, um... I know you have a lot on your plate right now, but... I was hoping maybe you could help Georgie prep for that tryout?

Amy: Yeah. Why, what's up?

I just... I just wanna level the playing field for her a little bit, you know, and... it might help keep her busy.

I know we can't keep this up for much longer, but I...

I'd love to give the girls a few more days of "normal" if I can.

Amy: Of course. I'd be happy to help.

Lou: Thanks.

(Horse grunts softly)

(Hooves clop)

Katie: (Giggles and hums)

Georgie: Four... five... six...

Seven... eight... nine...

Ten! Ready or not, here I come!

I wonder where Katie could be? I can't find her anywhere!

Boo! I found you! Hey! Where are you going?

Katie: I got you! I found you!

Georgie: Where are you going?!

Peter: Hey... ah, it's almost time for Katie's nap, so why don't you get started on your homework, okay?

Georgie: It's all done.

Well, you're book report isn't.

You can started on that if you got free time.

Georgie: But it's not due for weeks.

Peter: It's not up for discussion. Let's go.

(Sleeping bag rustles)

(Birds chirp, door opens and closes)

Lou: You're back.

Tim: Lou, honey, I wanna apologize for reacting the way I did.

Lou: It's okay. I... I should've told you sooner...

Tim: No. No, no.

With all you're dealing with, I... I understand.

Lou: Katie wants to decorate cookies...

(Phone rings) when she wakes up.

(Lou sighs)

It's Maggie's. I have to take this.

Tim: Yeah.

Lou: Hello?

Can... can you hang on until I get there?

Yes. No, no, no. I'll... I'll be right there.

(Phone beeps off)

Now my other server is sick.

Probably the same flu. I...

I know this sounds terrible to say, but the timing just couldn't be worse.

I... I really need to be here for the kids right now.

I mean, you know...

Georgie's out practicing with Amy and...

God knows if she finished her book report.

And Katie, she's...

She's gonna wake up any minute and she's gonna wanna do this, but we'll just... (Sighs) We'll do it another time.

Tim: Lou, let me do it.

Lou: No, dad.

Tim: Honey, I did it the whole time you were in Vancouver.

You were supervising. It's not the same as being on the front lines.

Tim: I can handle it.

Lou: Look, it's a really sweet offer, but...

Tim: I wish I could fix everything for you, but I can't.

So let me do this.

I'll look after Maggie's, and I'll be there for as long as you need me.

(Quick kiss) Lou: Really?

Tim: Yeah, just let me do it.

(Receding footsteps)

Lou: Thank you.

Amy: All right. Let's try the Fender drag.

That's it. That's good! Keep that leg extended.

(Hooves thud)

Hi!

Good job. Nice!

Hey! I mean, that looked great.

You've definitely shown improvement.

Georgie: Okay, well, it needs to be perfect for the tryouts.

Well, Georgie, the more you practice the better it's gonna get.

The thing is, I could really use a new trick.

We don't really have time to learn a new trick.

Georgie: Well, Olivia's got a whole new signature move she's gonna perform.

Let me think about it, okay?

Yes! (Hooves thud)

(Diners chatter) Tim: All right.

There you go. Thank you very much.

(Bell dings)

And sir, that is for you.

Yup, coming! And I'll fill this up.

(Dinging repeatedly)

Okay! I got it.

I'll be right there.

Casey: So did you invite me over here so I could wait tables?

Tim: Actually, when I called you, it was completely empty in here, so...

If you wanna help me out, you can.

It's up to you.

(Coffee cup clunks)

Follow my lead.

Okay. Thank you.

Oh, guys. I'm kinda swamped.

I tell you what, just get me next time, okay?

Casey: No, no, no. What'd they have?

Uh... they had the... the chili and corn bread, and two coffees.

Casey: So with tax, that would be... $22.56, or $11.28 apiece.

That's... that's right. Very good.

Casey: Yeah. Follow my lead, Tim.

(Diners chatter, music plays, register drawer bangs shut)

(Cutlery clanks, everyone's quiet)

Lou: So, Amy, um...

Have you started working on the seating chart for the reception?

Not yet, Lou, but... I'll get to it soon.

(Awkward silence)

Jack: So, Georgie, how're you feeling about the tryouts?

Mm. Great!

I'm definitely ready now that Amy's helping me.

Amy: (Chuckles softly)

(Awkward silence)

Georgie: What's going on?

Katie: Divorce!

What do you mean divorce?

(Silence)

Who's getting a divorce?

Lou: Georgie...

Is it true?!

Peter: Yeah. We're getting separated.

Why are you doing this?!

Lou: It's complicated.

Why? Why is it complicated?

Lou: I guess the bottom line is we... stopped listening to each other.

What does that even mean?

Lou: Well, eventually, we...

Peter: We just, we...

We realized that want different things.

Georgie: Like what?

Lou: You know what? We would rather focus on the two important things that unite us: You and Katie.

Because no matter what happens, we will always be your parents.

And we will always be a family.

How? How will we be a family?

I'll still be here all the time.

I don't even think you'll find it that much different, honey.

It'll be totally different! How can you even say that?!

Georgie, look. I know this is hard, trust me, but we are gonna answer all of your questions, and we will be there for you no matter what.

No, you won't! Because if you wanted to be there for me, then you wouldn't be doing this!

Peter: No, no, no, Georgie.

Georgie: No! I don't wanna talk to either of you!

(Footsteps thud down the stairs)

(Truck door bangs shut, trailer door opens)

Ty: Hey, Caleb!

Caleb: Hey, man.

Uh, good to see you.

Are you sure about that?

I got tired of waiting for you to call me back.

Yeah, sorry. Um... uh... Business has kinda ramped up.

It's been crazy.

I hear. So how's it going?

We're moving into a higher end stock, so, uh, it's going really great so far.

Well, that's not the impression Amy got.

Caleb: Am-oh... okay, look, I know what you guys are thinking.

Don't worry, I got it covered, all right?

Great. Can't wait to hear all about it.

(Truck rumbles)

Caleb: Look, man, I can't tonight. I'm still on the clock.

Jesse: What's he doing here?

Pretty sure that's none of your business.

Well, Caleb and I have actual business to discuss, if you don't mind...

And if I do? You gonna get out and sucker punch me again?

Caleb: I'll catch up with you tomorrow, 'kay?

Ty: Yeah, sure.

(Engine starts, door opens and closes)

(Engine rumbles)

Georgie: (Crying) don't tell me it's gonna be okay because it's not.

Jack: They love you, Georgie.

Georgie: (Sniffling) If they loved me, they wouldn't do this!

Jack: They couldn't love you more.

Georgie: (Bursts into fresh tears)

Jack: I've got ya.

Georgie: (Sobbing)

Jack: (Whispers) I've got ya.

Georgie: I knew it was too good to be true!

Jack: Well, you'll still be a family.

It'll... it'll just look a little different is all.

(Georgie sobs)

You'll see. It's not the end of the world.

How long have they been faking it?

Jack: It's been real hard for them, Georgie.

They waited to tell you because they wanted to keep things normal for you.

Well... do you think there's a chance they'll change their minds?

Jack: Well, anything's possible, that's for sure.

But I wouldn't count on it.

They didn't come to this decision lightly.

They... they tried hard to work things out.

Georgie: Why can't they try harder? (Sobbing)

(Light kiss)

(Water runs, dish clatters)

Lou: Oh, hey. There you are.

Look, Georgie, listen. Geor...

Jack: Now, Lou, just... Let her be.

You and Peter, you've been living with this for a while now.

She needs time to catch up.

Lou: Oh, grandpa...

It wasn't supposed to happen that way.

I doubt there's a right way to go about it.

Lou: Yeah, but she's just been through so much already and...

Peter: Hey... so Katie's down. Um... where's Georgie?

Jack: Uh, she just went to bed. I think I will, too.

Peter: Okay.

So, Katie, she... has no idea what she was saying.

Lou: (Relieved sigh) Oh, thank God.

That was my fault, okay? I-I-I...

I was talking to grandpa about it, and she must have overheard me. I am so sorry.

Peter: Don't. don't be sorry, okay?

It was gonna come out sooner or later anyway, so...

Lou: Yeah. I guess it's a relief, right?

I mean... we don't have to pretend anymore.

You don't have to sleep on the floor.

(Chuckles)

It just makes it... very real.

Peter, are we doing the right thing?

I mean, for Georgie, she...

She's already been through so much in her life, and it took her so long to... to trust us, and to feel like she was a part of our family and...

How can we do this to her now?

Peter: She's... she's resilient. Georgie's resilient.

She'll get through it.

So will we.

Lou: Yeah...

Peter: Kids are only happy when their parents are happy.

You're right.

(Lock clicks, music plays quietly)

Tim: Whew! Well, thank you for helping out today.

I think we did pretty well.

Casey: Mm...

Yes, working in close quarters, that is a true relationship test.

You know, yeah, it's good to test a relationship.

I'm real sorry to hear about Lou and Peter.

You doing okay?

Tim: I... I don't know how I feel about that.

Lou said that they were trying to work things out and then they... finally decided that they weren't happy anymore.

Well, it's gotta be tough, especially when kids are involved.

At least it sounds like they're finally being honest with each other, right?

I mean, in a relationship, if you don't have honesty, then... you don't have much of anything, do you?

Tim: Do you want a piece of pie?

Casey: (Chuckles) I would love some pie.

(Tim chuckles)

Casey: Oh hey, what do you have in the way of cheese?

Because there is nothing like a piece of apple pie and a slice of aged cheddar.

I don't know. We have ice cream.

Casey: I'll go check.

(Plates thump lightly, Casey's phone chirps)

Tim: Love, Reggie?

Ty: Poor Georgie. That's a tough way to find out.

Amy: It was pretty awful.

But I would rather not talk about it.

Why don't you tell me how your day was instead?

Ty: Okay. Well, I uh...

I tracked down Caleb at the rodeo grounds.

Amy: How's he doing?

Ty: I didn't get the chance to find out, because Jesse showed up. Caleb blew me off.

Amy: That doesn't sound like him.

Ty: I know.

So... I think I'm gonna invite him over and see how big a hole he's dug for himself.

Amy: That's probably a good idea.

(Sighs) I should go.

Ty: (Light kiss) Oh, you sure you can't stay a bit longer?

Amy: I just wanna be there for Georgie, and for Lou. Okay?

I get it. (Kissing)

Okay, maybe a couple more minutes.

(Kiss, Amy chuckles)

(Door creaks open)

Lou: Georgie?

Sweetheart?

(Blankets rustle)

(Floorboards creak, receding footsteps)

(Door creaks closed)

(Chain clanks, gate creaks open)

Lou: Go get 'em, Georgie! Show 'em what you got!

Olivia: You might wanna cut her some slack.

They tend to overcompensate, especially at first.

Georgie: What're you talking about?

I'm talking about parents.

Guilt turns them into real weirdos.

Trust me. I know all about it.

Look... I may or may not have overheard your mom filling Sandra in on the "situation" before class.

What?! That is none of your business!

Besides, what do you even care?

Take a chill pill, already.

I just thought you might like to know that I can relate.

I doubt that.

Oh, yeah?

Well, my mom's not actually my mom, so...

You know, if you're not interested... you can just forget it.

(Horse grunts)

(Saddle thumps heavily)

Ty: Hey, Caleb!

You look like you could use one of this.

Caleb: You'd be right about that.

Thanks, man.

Look, uh... Sorry about last night.

Duty called.

Ty: Hey, it's no problem.

I get it.

But what was Jesse doing here?

Caleb: He is my partner.

Ty: I know, but I thought he wasn't gonna be involved in the day-to-day.

Caleb: And I thought me giving you that big bag of money... meant it wasn't your business anymore.

Look, Caleb...

Amy told me that those thoroughbreds cost fifty grand each.

I'm worried about you, man. We both are.

Jesse is pretty hands on, actually.

Ty: And how's that going for you?

Caleb: Fine. As long as you don't mind being treated like hired help.

Ty: What're you talking about?

Caleb: (Sighs heavily)

Come on, Caleb, you gotta tell me what's going on?

Jesse's been fronting me all the money to cover the costs of the stock we buy, and my half of the stable fees.

So, in reality, he's calling all the sh*ts and I'm just sort of... along for the ride.

Yippy. (Ty sighs)

I don't know what to say.

How about... I told you so?

'Cause you did. More than once.

Ty: Okay, Caleb, there's gotta be a way outta this.

Why don't you come over, I'll throw some steaks on the barbecue, and we'll figure this out.

There's nothing to figure out. I'm in way over my head.

Ty: So what're you gonna do?

It's not your problem.

But steaks? Yeah, I'm... I'm in.

(Coffee cups tap)

Um... I'm really sorry about earlier.

That's okay.

So what do you mean your mom's not really your mom?

My parents got divorced four years ago, and my dad remarried.

I call her mom, but she's actually my stepmother.

It's not that big a deal.

Well, it sure sounds like a big deal.

There are perks.

That's what the horses and the private lessons are all about.

I told you, guilt can make parents act pretty kooky.

So do you... miss your real mom?

Yeah.

I don't see her nearly as much as I'd like to, but, eventually, you just get used to it.

(Sighs heavily)

(Cups clunk)

Jack: You almost look like you know what you're doing.

Tim: You here to check up on me?

I'm just looking for a cup of coffee.

Tim: So I heard from Lou last night.

Sounds like she's having a rough time.

Jack: Yeah. It's going about as well as can be expected.

Tim: Yeah, well, that's the thing about relationships, Jack.

They all end up in heartache.

What happened now?

Tim: Who says anything happened?

Good then.

(Coffee pot clunks) I saw a text that to Casey got from some guy.

Jack: So?

Tim: So it said, "with love, Reggie."

She's meeting with Reggie, right now.

Jack: Who is that? Some old flame?

Tim: I don't know who it is. I've never heard of the guy.

She's never mentioned him.

You know, you are some piece of work.

What're you talking about?

Why can't you learn anything?

You wanna know something, you ask questions.

You don't keep jumping to conclusions all the time.

You expect Casey to lay her cards on the table, well, you have to show her your hand first.

It's a two-way street.

Sandra: Okay, we have time for one more.

Trudie: Sandra! Hi.

Sandra: Hi!

This is my friend, Trudie. She's the extreme team trainer.

Trudie: I don't wanna interrupt. Just pretend I'm not here.

Girls: (Murmur excitedly)

Sandra: All right, everyone settle down.

Olivia, you're up.

(Clucks her tongue, hooves plod)

(Hooves thud)

(Hooves thud)

(Hooves thud)

Trudie: Nice work!

Sandra: That's a good note to end the class on.

I'll see you all at the tryout!

(Talking quietly)

Tim: So, uh... how'd that meeting go?

Casey: It was productive.

(Dishes clatter)

Tim: Productive...

Interesting choice of words.

Casey: (Laughs) Not really.

What's going on with you?

Tim: Nothing.

I just thought it'd be great if we could talk about things.

Casey: Okay. I'll bite. What kind of things?

Tim: Well, you gotta admit, there's still a lot that we don't know about each other, so...

I was thinking maybe... uh...

Okay, how 'bout we tell each other something that the other person doesn't know.

(Laughs) Like what?

Like um...

Okay. Okay, you'll laugh at this.

I thought about crashing Miranda's wedding when you weren't here.

(Door opens)

(Low chatter from outside, door closes)

(Steaks sizzle, flames crackle)

You know, I really did need this.

Thanks. To new beginnings and happier days.

I'll drink to that.

(Truck rumbles to a halt)

(Door opens)

Ty: What do you want?

(Door bangs shut) Jesse: Caleb said he'd be here, and this can't wait.

Caleb: What's going on?

Jesse: An opportunity has come up on another venture, but I've got a serious cash flow problem.

So... I'm gonna have to call in your loan.

Caleb: This a joke. You know I don't have that kind of cash.

Jesse: I'm sorry, Caleb. I'm in a bit of a jam.

I don't have any other choice. It's just business.

You'll receive official notification outlining the details, but I wanted to tell you in person, first.

What if I can't pay?

Jesse: Well, if the money's not paid in full within the specified time frame, I'll be forced to register a lien on this property.

Ty: A land grab.

I don't have an alternative.

Caleb: Is this what this has all been about?

Ty: Hey, hey, hey, hey... He's not worth it, all right?

Jesse: I don't know what you mean.

Caleb: I was crazy to trust you.

Jesse: Trust? That's real funny coming from the guy who's been running around with my girlfriend.

Yeah. But hey, she's all yours, cowboy.

You know what I don't get, Caleb?

Is what women even see in you.

You're nothing but a broke, washed-up rodeo bum.

Ty: Hey, hey.

Jesse: See ya around, boys.

(Truck door opens, engine starts)

Amy: Hey! So...? How did it go?

Lou: The extreme team coach was there, and Georgie looked really good.

Georgie: No, I didn't! Everyone saw the trainer talking to Olivia!

She's totally getting the spot on the team!

Georgie: Okay, that is not true.

You know what? I don't even care about the stupid audition anymore.

I quit.

Lou: Georgie!

Georgie: (Sighs) If you're here to change my mind, you can save your breath.

Amy: (Sighs) Georgie...

I get that things are scary and confusing right now.

You have no idea how I feel!

I do know what it's like to have your whole world turned upside down.

(Chair scrapes)

Yeah, but... not like this.

No, not quite like this.

But when my mom d*ed...

All I wanted to do was curl up in a ball and hide.

But, if I wanted to help Spartan, I had to find a way to push through all of the pain and anger I was feeling.

If I didn't, it meant letting him go.

It was the hardest thing that I have ever had to do.

But if I hadn't of tried, I would've regretted it for the rest of my life.

Georgie: Yeah, but... that was Spartan.

This is just some... dumb audition.

Amy: I know that's not how you really feel.

You have been looking forward to this all year, and you have been practicing like crazy.

I even thought of a new trick that we could try.

You know, you can't control what's gonna happen.

But you can control how you deal with it.

I just don't want you to look back, and regret not going.

So think about it, okay?

Casey: And there you go. Thank you, guys.

Have a good day.

(Cash drawer slams shut, Casey clears her throat)

Casey: So... what do you mean, you almost crashed Miranda's wedding?

Tim: I thought that... if I went, I... (Clears throat) I might get some closure.

But I realized I didn't need it... because I should be looking forward and not back.

Casey: So do I get to take some credit for this new outlook?

Tim: Yeah, well, that... depends on Reggie.

On Reggie?

I saw the text... From the Reggie guy.

Seemed pretty friendly to me.

Reggie's a nickname... For Regina.

She's an old friend of mine. We reconnected at the rodeo last week.

She came into town to sell me a horse.

That's where I was today.

A girl, Reggie. Huh.

I didn't see that coming.

(Sighs)

How 'bout some more pie?

Casey: How 'bout... no more secrets?

Tim: No more secrets.

Amy: I can't believe I'm getting married in less than a month.

I know. It's crazy.

You know, Amy, the seating chart is important, but shouldn't you be out looking for a dress?

I have a dress... Mrs. Bell is making it for me.

Mrs. Bell? How is this the first I'm hearing of this?

Why didn't you tell me?!

I was gonna tell you, but then you had so much on your mind and...

You see, when I found mom's dress in the attic, I wrote to Mrs. bell and I told her how beautiful I thought it was.

And she wrote back and told me she would love to make mine too, so... I said yes.

Amy, that's... that's amazing.

Mom would be really, really happy.

(Door opens)

Lou: Hey.

Peter: Hey. (Door bangs shut)

Lou: Thanks for picking that stuff up.

Peter: Not a problem.

Amy: You sure you wanna be doing this, right now?

Yeah. It feels good to... be focusing on something else.

Lou: Hey, sweetie, did you want a snack?

Because dinner's not gonna be for a while.

I'm not hungry.

Is this your seating chart?

Amy: Yeah. Would you like to give us a hand?

Georgie: Actually, I was wondering if... maybe you could help me with that new trick?

Amy: All right. Let's go.

Amy: Now when you're ready, drop down.

That's it, but let go of the horn.

Come on, drop down.

George: It's scary!

Amy: Come on! Agh!

(Hooves thud, Georgie grunts)

Amy: All right! (Hooves thud)

Okay, close... close.

Georgie: Whoa... boy.

Sandra makes it look so easy.

Amy: Yes, well, she's been doing the stroud layout for a long time.

You have to be brave and lean out.

Georgie: Well, I'm never gonna get it this.

Amy: It's a difficult move... It just takes time.

Georgie: I don't have time. The audition is tomorrow.

Amy: Georgie, you don't need a new trick, okay?

Just focus on nailing the Fender drag 'cause it's great and you're ready.

Okay, okay, you're right. You're right. Okay.

(Low hum of chatter, hooves thud)

Amy: Okay. Just get here as soon as you can, all right?

It's about to start. Okay.

Ty's on his way. He's just gonna stop at his place first.

Okay.

Um... I'll be right back.

Hey... you look nice.

No, I don't! These costumes are horrible.

Georgie: Aren't they? I hate pink.

You're joking, right? It's like the best colour ever.

Georgie: (Laughs)

Sandra: Hi, girls!

Looks like we're ready.

Trudie's here and she's eager to see what you guys can do.

Okay, Olivia, you're up first.

Now... have fun, and don't forget to smile!

Georgie: Okay. All right, well, I uh... I guess this is it.

Good luck!

Tim: Hey, honey.

Lou: Dad! You made it!

Tim: (Quick kiss) Yeah.

Oh, Casey's covering for me at the diner.

She said she didn't want me to miss this.

Lou: Well, you know, I can't thank you both enough.

It's means a lot to me.

Tim: Well...

It's not a problem, really.

(Sighs) I gotta talk to you...

'Cause clearly you've lost your mind.

Peter: (Sighs) don't, Tim. Honestly...

Do you think this is easy for me?

Huh? This is... this is my family here, Tim.

This is my home, okay?

Tim: Oh, that's good. Your home?

Peter: Yeah.

Tim: (Snorts)

Peter: This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do, so can you give me a break?

Tim: Then do the right thing.

Peter: I'm not sure what the right thing is anymore-

Tim: That's your problem right there.

Peter: Okay, thanks.

Lou: Dad, please.

Announcer: And here's our first rider, Olivia Wheaton, riding Winner.

(Hooves thud)

Georgie: What?! Are you kidding me?

She did the reverse Fender drag!

She stole my signature move!

Amy: It's okay, Georgie.

(Hooves thunder)

(Clapping)

Olivia: b*at that.

Ty: Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing?

Jesse: This land's gonna be mine soon enough.

I just wanna make sure I get every square inch of it.

Ty: You got no legal right to be here.

Jesse: Come on, we both know Caleb's not gonna come up with the cash in time.

So pack up your stuff and get out, 'cause when I get the go ahead, it's gonna happen real fast.

I'm warning you. don't do this.

Oh, I'm just getting started.

What's that supposed to mean?

It's called payback, Ty.

I'm sticking it to Caleb, reclaiming my family's land, and kicking you to the curb.

Oh, and that stuck up fiancee of yours who thinks she can just blow me off?

When I put her pathetic little business out of operation, she's gonna wish she hadn't turned down all my job offers.

You lose, Ty.

Ty: Ungh!

Jesse: Agh!

Ungh!

(Struggling grunts)

(Hard punch) Ty: Oh! Ungh!

(Breathing hard)

Ty: Aggghhhhh!

Jesse: Oof!

(Struggling grunts, hard punches)

Surveyor: Hey! Stop!

(Fighting grunts)

Get off him! Crazy!

(Fighting grunts)

Ty: (Struggling grunts) Get your hands off me!

Surveyor: Take it easy! Take easy, buddy! Come on!

I got you now!

You started this fight, remember that.

Georgie: I can't believe she did that!

Amy: Just forget about Olivia, okay?

Focus on controlling how you deal with this.

Amy: Just like we practiced.

Announcer: Next up, we have...

Georgie: Okay...

Amy: Are you ready?

Announcer: Riding Checkers.

Georgie: I'm ready.

Amy: Have fun.

Lou: Woo!

Peter: (Clapping)

(Hooves thud)

Audience: (Clapping)

(Gate squeals)

(Clapping)

(Clapping)

(Hooves thud, Checkers pants)

Oh no...

(Audience claps)

(Georgie grunts, clapping and cheering)

(Resounding applause and cheers)

Amy: Georgie, that was amazing!

I can't believe you tried that new trick!

Georgie: Well, I know it wasn't perfect, but you said to have fun, and I didn't wanna regret not trying it.

Amy: (Chuckles)

Well, that was definitely a winning ride.

Georgie: It doesn't look like it.

Georgie, that was... incredible!

Sandra: Trying that stroud layout was pretty gutsy, Georgie.

It may have just tipped the scales, because I am happy to report that... you are being offered the spot on the extreme team!

Trudie: Congratulations!

You are gonna be a great addition to the team!

(Laughing excitedly)

(Georgie giggles)

Peter: Hey... aw...

Tim: Congratulations.

Jack: I'm so proud of you!

Georgie: (Laughs)

Ty: (Groans in pain)

(Bag rustles)

Ah...

(Groans, bag rustles)

(Sucks in his breath and exhales sharply)

(Sharp knock, the door opens)

Ty, what's going on? Where were you...?

Oh my God.

Are you okay?

Ty: (Sighs) I think I might be in trouble, Amy.

Georgie: So how's this gonna work?

Peter: Well, your mom and I haven't quite sorted it all out yet.

Well... when are you coming back?

Soon. Very soon, okay?

And I'm gonna call you tonight.

Peter: Hey, kitty cat! (Dramatic groan)

Come here. Oh, you're getting so big.

Be a good girl for mommy, okay? Daddy's gonna be back soon.

Muah!

Katie: Okay, daddy, be back soon!

(Playful kisses)

Hey... look at me.

We're gonna figure this out, okay?

I promise. (Light kisses)

I love you.
