Previously on Heartland.

You are late.

- (laughing)
- You are beautiful.

You want a typical teenage
summer complete with a crummy job?

Here it is.
Waitressing at Maggie's

is a rite of passage
for a Fleming Morris girl.

So, is this
like a permanent thing?

Well, for me and for you.

No, I don't
have any experience.

You're gonna be a dad.

- (sighing)
- Oh, my...

- Oh, my God, is... is she okay?
- Lou, what's happening?

Georgie had an accident
during her show

and she's in the hospital,
unconscious.

You're in charge.

We have breaking news
now from Roseville, Alberta.

Flash flooding has devastated
the small community

and a state of local emergency
has been declared.

Authorities say that Roseville
has experienced

over millimetres of rainfall

over the last hours
and more is still to come.

Rescue crews are working
to assist hundreds of residents

who are rushing
to evacuate the town.

(dramatic music)

(neighing)
Okay, come on.

You're all right.

That's it.

- Good boy.
- Hold him as steady as you can.

Easy, Biscuit.

- That's it.
- All right, buddy, here you go.

Good boy.

- Here we go.
- Yeah, we're ready, get the harness.

Good boy, good boy!

- Yeah, yeah.
- Thanks, guys.

You got it?

Here they come.

Right, clip it in.

(dramatic music)

You're okay, Biscuit.
Okay, harness is on!

It's alright.

Make sure it's strapped tight!

It's good.

Okay, here we go!

- Hey, Scott.
- Just so you know,

he's ready to go,
he'll be on his way in.

I-I will head
to the drop-off point now.

Okay, great! I'll have some
guys waiting for you there.

Yeah, no worries,
I'm on my way.

Yeah, we're good.
Send her in!

- You got it?
- Yeah!

Here it is!

Okay.

Okay, clip it on!

(Biscuit groaning)
That's good.

- Okay, we're set.
- You're alright, Biscuit, it's alright.

Watch it! Watch it!

Lifting now.

I have never witnessed
anything like this,

it's a horse being transported
by a helicopter!

Flooding struck the town
of Roseville without warning,

leaving residents little time
to salvage their belongings.

Rescue efforts are underway
for those struggling to evacuate

and for those with animals
caught in the flood.

(neighing)
I got it!

(dramatic music)
Alright, hold on to that!

Okay, let's go!

Okay, take it away!

(neighing)

(groaning)

(neighing)

(dramatic music)

(neighing)

- There he is.
- Yeah.

Whoa...

Hey.

Whoa...
You're okay.

You're alright.

Good boy.
(Biscuit groaning softly)

I know.

(birds chirping)

You're safe, now.

It's okay.

(theme music)

♪ And at the break of day ♪

♪ You sank into a dream ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

♪ You dreamer ♪

That's great news, Lou.

You tell her that Lisa and I
love her very much.

Okay, yeah, keep in touch.

Love you too.
Bye now.

Georgie's okay?

Well, they fixed the fracture
in her back,

said the surgery couldn't
have gone better.

(sighing)
What a relief.

She's pretty lucky, though.

By the sounds of that fall,
could have been a lot worse.

(indistinct TV chatter)

So, how's it going here?

It's more footage
from Roseville,

- people are losing their houses.
- (sighing)

They're saying that nearby towns
should be expecting evacuees,

including Hudson.

Yeah.

Love you too. Bye.

- Uh... was that your mother?
- Yeah.

You saw the news?
Hudson is gonna be crowded

with evacuees within hours.

I mean, of all the time
for Lou to be absent, again.

- What's going on with you?
- Nothing is going on with me.

What could be going on?
Only apart from... this?

I mean, the adoption process,

it turns out to be full
of glitches.

Apparently, we missed filling
some information

on the first application,

and then, a pile of
other applications have arrived

that we weren't expecting,

Kyle's attempting to deal
with it, thank goodness.

But, uh... yeah, first things
first, the raging flood, yeah.

I'll check the protocols
and I'll see what the order

of things is to deal
with this... situation.

Well, I'll help.
We'll both help.

Help... with what?

- Hey.
- Hey, Dad.

Do you mind giving us a hand?

(banging)
(neighing)

What... what's going on?

Amy picked up one
of the horses

that had to get evacuated
from Roseville.

- Why?
- Flash flood, didn't you hear?

No, I'm doing books
at the school all morning.

- Okay.
- What's going on in there?

Heads up. Whoa...
(door creaking)

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- (neighing)
- Geez! - Whoa!

Hey! Whoa! Whoa!

Okay, I think we should probably
get him saddled in the barn.

Yeah.
(neighing)

- Watch yourself with him.
- Easy.

(neighing)
Hey, come on now, Biscuit.

You're okay,
we're almost there.

Come on! Grandpa!
Are you okay?

I'm fine. You got him?
(neighing)

- Come on, boy!
- Come on.

In you go.

(deep exhales)

(indistinct chatter)

Okay, we're working
on finding you places to stay

until you get the go-ahead
to return to Roseville.

- Any idea when that might be?
- Are we talking hours? Days?

I'm... not sure
at the moment, but–

Sorry, are we gonna have to
stay in an arena or something?

I've got kids,
they're pretty upset.

I know, I know, but it's
all up in the air at the moment.

Well, it shouldn't be,
should it?

We need to know
what's happening.

And you will, to the best
of the town's ability.

What's that even mean?

(phone vibrating)
(sighing)

Uh... can you
help them, please?

(sighing)

(clears throat)

Hey, Lou, how are you?

Uh... everything's fine here,
just fine, under control.

Okay, good.
Look, you need to rally

the people of Hudson and get all
of those evacuees billeted.

You can reach out to the churches,
the arenas, the schools...


Yeah, I know, I... I have.

Okay. Look, I'm so sorry
I can't be there,

- but Georgie needs me.
- Don't worry,

everything is under control,
you go take care of Georgie.

Okay. Thank you. Good luck!

Ah, yeah, all is under
control, all is under control.

All is under control.

Here they are.

All right, honey,
would you mind

staying on the porch
for just a second,

we'll be right back, okay?

- Hi, there!
- Hi.

I'm Jack Bartlett,
it's nice to meet you.

- David Carpenter.
- Hi.

This is my wife, Emily.

Hi, I'm Amy.

Lisa. Welcome.

Uh... Scott said
you had Biscuit?

Yeah. He landed safely,
we have him in the barn.

Uh... I want to see him.

I think... maybe we should
just let him get settled for today.

- But is he okay?
- He is, yeah.

I think it's best
if we wait until tomorrow.

Why don't you come inside?
Make yourselves comfortable.

You must be very tired.

- Please.
- Um...

- Yeah, okay.
- Go. Let's go.

The highways were plugged,

people were leaving
the area in droves.

There's so many
who had nowhere to go.

Like us.
We're grateful for the help,

but we don't want
to impose on you.

You're not imposing!

You're welcome to stay here
as long as you need to.

We have some cabins
just a drive away.

Oh, uh... if it's all right,

I'd like to stay closer
to Biscuit.

Emily.

Well, then, you can stay
in the loft above the barn.

Jack, I live there!

Yeah, but your wife
is in New York City right now,

so I'm sure you don't mind
bunking at the Dude Ranch.

Oh... sure.

So, tell us a little bit
about yourselves,

what got you into farming?

Uh...
(chuckling)

David and I had corporate jobs
in Calgary,

but we got tired of city life.

So, we bought an acreage
and started to run a farm,

totally organic and sustainable,
no pesticides.

We built the business up
from scratch.

And... just starting
to take off.

It all happened so fast,
no one was ready for it.

The river breached
its banks and then...

All of a sudden, the water
was coming into the house.

Some of our outbuildings
have gotten swept away.

The water got so high
that our truck wouldn't start.

Luckily, our neighbour lent us
one of his so we could get out.

Yeah.
(dog panting)

Hey, you.

Hi!

Oh, you're beautiful,
aren't you?

- Her name is Remi.
- Oh.

(Remi whining)
Remi.

Hey, no begging.

(Remi whining)

We lost Winston.

Uh... our dog.

He ran away when the water got really
high and then, we couldn't find him.

But we had to leave.

First thing I'm gonna do when
we're allowed back is look for him.

You know, animals are smart,

your dog probably just headed
for higher ground.

Yeah.

(groaning)

Hey, Biscuit.

How you doing?

(groaning)

You want a snack?

Here.

(neighing)

(dramatic music)

What's happened to him?

He's shaken up from today.

The flood,
the helicopter rescue...

But I'm gonna help him.

Biscuit?

It's me.

(groaning)

He'll be okay, I promise.

Hey.

(crying)

Hey, hey...

Hey, GG.

Oh, there she is!

Maggie's was a mad house,

and it was so sad hearing
everyone's stories.

- I wish Mom were here.
- Yeah, I know.

- Okay, I'm exhausted.
- Ah, I bet you are.

You have a good night's
sleep, honey bunny.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

- Good night.
- (both): Good night.

- Poor kid.
- Yeah.

All that going on down there
on top of Georgie's operation.

Jack, there are people waiting
to find somewhere to sleep,

with their kids!

We have to do something
to help, we really do.

I couldn't agree more.

I think I'm gonna make some lasagnas
to take down to Maggie's tomorrow.

(phone vibrating)

It's my trainer, Chuck.

Uh-oh.

He's got a line on a horse, he wants
me to fly down to Florida to see it.

When?

- In a few days.
- But you just got back!

I did, but this is my job.

I know, but I thought you
were gonna be home for a while.

I was, but... this has
come up, I can't judge a horse

by a picture or a video!
(chuckling)

Okay, fine.

Then, I'm gonna call Rick
and see if there's anything else

I can do before I go.
Can you grab the cheese, please?

(soft music)

(honking)

Morning.

What's going on?

Uh... we're putting
some families up.

- Here?
- Yes, here!

They have nowhere else to go,
it's the least we can do.

And there's a very good chance
I'm gonna be going out of town,

so I'm gonna need your help,
you're gonna be in charge.

Seriously.

(indistinct chatter)

Thanks, buddy,
this is really kind of you.

It's so good for the kids
to have some space.

- You're welcome.
- (grunts)

Tim?

A little help... maybe?

(sighing)

Okay. Okay.

There you go.

It's okay.

You're safe now.

Hey, Biscuit.

Are you feeling a little
better this morning?

(groaning)

Hi.

Morning.

Good morning.

I didn't think
I'd sleep, but I did.

- Oh, it's so cozy.
- It is.

We lived up there
for a while, my husband and I.

I'm sorry I was
such a mess, last night.

No, I completely understand.

You've been through a lot

and you were worried
about your horse.

Everyone's looking for a place
to take their animals right now.

Scott's guys brought by
three horses this morning

and they're headed back
to get more.

How's Biscuit doing?

He's calmer, for sure.

Yeah, he does seem
a little bit better.

I put some Valerian
in his feed,

it's a natural herb,
my mom used to swear by it.

I'm gonna work with him today,

I'd love it
if you could be there.

It's probably a good idea

to have someone around
that he knows.

Yeah, of course.

(Biscuit groaning)
Anything.

Thank you so much
for taking in that family,

you have no idea
how grateful they are.

Bye.

So, how are we doing?

Lots of people
are stepping up,

but there's still so many who
need help, it's overwhelming.

(bell ringing)
And the hotels and rec centres

- are already full.
- That's why Lou has gotten hold

of a camera crew for tomorrow,
I'm to do on-air plea for help.

Tomorrow?
You need to do it now.

Tomorrow is the earliest
she could book it,

and I know it's gonna work.

I mean, I was the one
who suggested she do it

when we had the train
derailment, but I mean,

it's all well and good telling
someone else to do it, but...

- ...me doing it?
- Rick...

You have got to get it together.

Nerves do not
look good on camera.

If you can't handle this crisis,

how are you ever going
to handle being a father?

You're absolutely right,
how am I gonna do that?

No, no, she's not right.
Don't listen to her, okay?

You're gonna be a great father.

And you can do this,
you got all day to prepare.

(sighing) Yeah.

How often do you
usually ride him?

I don't know,
three, four times a week.

He's usually okay
with the saddle and everything?

He's no problem,
he's very calm.

Okay.
(Biscuit groaning)

(neighing)
Easy. Hey.

(neighing)
Whoa, whoa. You're okay. You're okay.

It's kinda what I thought.

I think that that helicopter
harness not only scared him

but it might have bruised him
a little bit too.

Ah, it's my fault.
(sighing)

I couldn't bear to leave him,
we never should have agreed

to the helicopter rescue.

It's better
than the alternative.

You guys did what you had to do.

It's okay, we'll take it slow.

Yeah.

Fine. Thanks for the call.

I just got the go-ahead
to return to our place.

You mean we can go home?

No, it's just to look at it,
assess the state of it.

- I'll come with you.
- No!

David, I don't
want you to go alone.

I don't want you to see it,
it's better this way.

That's not
your decision to make.

Em, look...

They just told me that
our house was... washed away.

Our home?

It's gone.

It's gone...

Hey,

(indistinct chatter)

(grunts)

Thank you, Tim,
I appreciate it.

No problem.

Oh!

Here you go.

Can I get you a coffee?

No.

It's free.

I said no, didn't I?

I guess you get off on being
a Saviour and all,

but I don't want your pity.

Just... save it
for someone else.

All right.

Just so you know...

I don't have any more choice
about being stuck here than...

than you do,
but... if there's somebody

that I can call or get in touch
with for you?

Oh, you're a real peach,
aren't you?

There's no one.

Are you a rancher or farmer?

Neither, not anymore.

How bad was your damage?

Nothing left,
I lost everything.

Sorry to hear that.

Sure you are.

(neighing)

Good boy.

(barking)

(whining)

(soft music)

(whining)

Good girl, Remi.

You miss Winston, don't you,
Biscuit?

(soft music)

(fire crackling)

When I was home,
the authorities I spoke to

said that the flood's probably dredged
up chemicals from other properties.

Sewage, fertilizer...

The organic status of our farm
is questionable.

The house, it's gone.

Crops, ruined underwater.

The barn is still standing,
so I guess that's a plus.

No sign of Winston,
but hopefully we'll find him.

I can't see any way forward.

- It's over.
- No, it isn't.

We can rebuild.

There's no point.

We'd have to dig everything out
that's contaminated

and build it all back
from scratch.

Then, that's what we'll do.

David, we have to.

You weren't there,
you didn't see it.

Well, I would have if you had
let me go with you today.

The place is unlivable, okay?

David, I understand
how you feel.

But like Emily says,
you can get through this.

It'll take some time,
but you're both young,

you got plenty of years
ahead of you.

Thank you, Mr. Bartlett.

If you'll excuse me,
I have to go to bed.

I can't even imagine
how devastating this is for you.

I want you to know,
if all else fails,

I can find a position for you
at Fairfield, my business.

I'm a horse breeder. In fact,
I can employ both of you

if you decide... that you just
can't go back.

Thank you,
that's... it's very kind.

(sighing)

- Lots to think about.
- Mm-hmm.

- Thank you for dinner.
- You're welcome.

Well, I should
go check on Biscuit.

Okay.

Hi, Remi.

(chuckling)

(Remi moaning)
Are you keeping Biscuit company?

You're a good girl.

Yeah.

Hey, Biscuit.

(groaning)

Oh.

So, now you want to eat?

(chuckling)

I think we have
to think about it.

What choice do we have?

I can't believe you're
even considering Lisa's offer.

It's a lifeline,
how can you not see that?

I know you feel bad for him

and I know you meant well
with your offer, but–

I simply suggested Fairfield
as an option

to tide them over, that's all!

We don't need a lifeline.

How can you give up so easily?

Think of all the time we've put
into planning our move,

how we both left our jobs
to get out of the city!

We'd still be in the country.

Working for somebody else,
not ourselves.

Think of it, David, all of
the work we put into our place.

It was like we were
brand new again.

We got to know each other,
we had our own little bubble.

I just think that we oughta let
them figure it out for themselves!

Well, I just think that couple
isn't in a position

to figure anything out
for themselves.

They've lost everything
and I'm simply trying

to give them a little hope
for the future!

Okay, Lisa, everyone
has their dreams

and they should be encouraged
to follow them.

You're chasing yours,
I... I'm supportive of that.

Well, not really.

What do you mean,
"not really"?

The bubble is gone, Em.

It's gone.

I couldn't bear
looking at it today.

(sighing)

It made me sick.

We built it once,

we can build it again,
maybe on higher land.

Oh, I hate how
you're so optimistic.

- Of course I'm optimistic!
- How can you be?

Well, come on, Jack.

I mean, you put up a good front,

but I know deep down you're not
very happy about what I'm doing,

I can hear it in your voice,
I can see it on your face!

- That is not true!
- Okay.

Those two young people are not
sharing a dream anymore,

that dream is gone,
and when that happens,

you have to come up
with another plan,

so I'm just supporting them.

Because I certainly understand
how hard it is to keep pushing

at a plan that isn't working.

I am not a quitter!

So now, I'm a quitter, huh?

Bye.

David.

- David!
- I need some air.

(dramatic music)

(soft music)

You... again, yeah.

Yeah.

I didn't get a chance to
introduce myself, I'm Tim Fleming.

There must be somebody that
I can get in touch with for you.

No, there isn't.
I live alone.

I... lost my wife
a couple years ago.

I'm kinda glad she...
never had to see this happen.

But... what's done is done.

I can't change things.

Things are what they are.

Do you have kids?

What is that to you?

Well, I'm here to help
and you clearly need some,

so I thought if you had kids, I
could reach out to them for you.

No, don't bother.

Even if my son knew,
he wouldn't come.

We've been estranged
for years, you know?

Boys, stubborn.

(chuckling)
Maybe you don't know.

No, I do.

I have a son.

Haven't seen him for years.

Lives with his mother.

Couldn't make a go of it, huh?

That's modern marriages for you.

Me and my wife, we got through
everything together,

and it wasn't easy,
but we never walked away.

You're a real peach,
aren't you?

(chuckling)

(sniffling)

I'm taking them over
to the Dude Ranch.

Oh.

That's nice, thank you.

Lisa, I don't know
how that conversation

we had last night
took the turn it did.

I thought we were talking
about our guests,

and all of a sudden,
you're accusing me

of not supporting you, so...

I'm just wondering
where that came from.

Well, it might have come from
the fact that you got yourself

in a snit when I told you I had to
go to Florida to look at a horse...

which sold, by the way, and
I don't have to go see it.

Okay, I'm sorry,
but I thought we were

just getting
into a routine, here.

We were, Jack, but...
(sighing)

If the horse hadn't sold,
I would have to go see it.

And I get that.

You need to know
that I do support you,

but I'm not going to lie.

I miss you when you travel.

Maybe that's what you hear
in my voice and see on my face,

I'm not that good at pretending,
but the bottom line is...

I'm very proud of you
and what you do

and I would never stand in your
way, I just have the odd snit.

Well, we're both allowed
to have a snit

here and there along the way.
(chuckling)

Boy.

Holding tight to the dream,
not that easy, huh?

(chuckling) Nope.

Nope.

Don't burn the sausages.

Your order will be ready soon.

Thank you, honey.

I can't believe
how much work this is. Ha!

I mean, I'm not complaining.
These people need help, but...

I'm just saying, it's like
a full-time job.

We're aware.

Listen, I have
another job for you.

Great. What?

You've been
in politics, right?

You know how to make a speech.

I... I can give a speech. Why?

Rick has to do an on-camera
plea for help this afternoon,

but if he messes up,
Lou's mayoral term

is going to be an even bigger
disaster than it already is.

So, you want me to give
an on-camera speech?

No, that's Rick's job
in Lou's absence.

Just... go over and help him
figure out how to do it.

(sighing)

(bell ringing)

You might want to hold that
order. This can take a while.

Hello there, everybody.

- I'm here today–
- Stop.

You sound scared.

I am scared, I'm terrified.

Pretend you're Lou.

Excuse me?
That's even more terrifying.

You need to open up your hearts
and your homes to these people

- who have been left–
- Stop.

Now, you sound pompous.
Try using "we" instead of "you".

"We" have to open our hearts.

And say it like we're having
a conversation.

Be sincere.

- That is me being sincere.
- Not working.

This town has come together
before in hard times

and we can do it again.

We are a family.

Good! Great!

Just do it like that,
you sound just like Lou.

You got this, you can do it.

Yeah, I can do this.

I can do this.

Help yourself.

No charge.

I'm a Saviour, right?

(chuckling)

Thanks.

Never did get your name.

Henry. Henry Gunderson.

Henry, nice to meet you.

- So, is your son a farmer too?
- No, no.

He left after high school,
working the oil patch.

Well, I spent a lot of years
there myself, that's tough work.

I don't know.

He... followed his friends

to make a pile of money,
that's all.

Farming was never
good enough for him.

I understand that,
I made the same choice myself.

Yeah, but you came home.

Our son abandoned
me and his mother,

didn't even come home
when she was sick.

I don't want anything
to do with that kid.

(soft music)

We're rolling.

And you're on in five,
four, three.

I implore you to help
in any way you can.

We have to open up our hearts
and our homes to these people

who have been left destitute

by the terrible flooding
in Roseville.

The community centres
and the schools

have opened their doors.

The hospitals and hotels
have opened their doors.

But we have to open ours,

and there is so much we need
to do besides providing a place

for people to sleep, a place
for their children to sleep.

We need to make donations:
food, toys, clothing, blankets.

Anything we, as a community,
can manage is appreciated.

Otherwise, we will have
another disaster on our hands.

Hey, that was my line.

He couldn't have done
that without my coaching.

Our town has pulled together
before in hard times,

and I know we can do it again.

He's doing great.

Thanks to me.

I'm the one who got him a coach.

As our mayor, Lou Fleming,
always says,

we are a family.

And now, these visitors
are a part of that family.

Let's do our best
to welcome them.

(Biscuit groaning)

(chuckling)

These guys have really bonded.

I guess Biscuit misses Winston.

Yeah. Well, I think
that Remi's presence

has helped your horse
just as much as I have.

- Hi, sweetheart.
- Mommy?

- Mommy?
- Mm-hmm?

Can I go flower-picking
with Lisa?

Of course you can.
Why don't you pick me

a nice bouquet
for the dinner table?

- Okay.
- Okay.

Your daughter is lovely.
(sighing)

David and I were... planning
on starting a family,

and now, I guess that plan
will have to change.

Well, my husband and I had
all the plans in the world,

but sometimes, things don't work
out the way you think they will.

Hope you don't mind me asking,
but are you a single mom?

I am.

My husband passed away
a few years ago.

Oh, I'm so sorry,
I shouldn't have brought it up.

It must be so hard
raising a child on your own.

You know, Lyndy's actually
been the one who's really

helped me get through it all.

You give me hope.
(sighing)

You really do.

It's so beautiful out here.

It makes it easier
to think about the future.

(soft music)

Hi, David.

Ooh, that is a nice breeze,
isn't it?

(sighing)

I'm so sorry.

It's good to cry, though.

Let it all out.

This is what I wanted,
this is my dream.

Kids growing up in the country.

Emily and I being
our own bosses.

If that is your dream,
hold on to it,

you hold on to it and don't
let it go, and try again.

Yeah.

(sighing)

Hey, what's the news?

We got the go-ahead,
we can go home.

The house is damaged,
but it's still standing.

Thank you.

Tim.

We're moving in
with some friends.

Thank you for... everything.

Yeah, man, this has been
an amazing place to, you know...

- come to grips.
- Mm-hmm.

I wish you both all the best.

Thank you.

I'm Kyle Gunderson,
we spoke on the phone.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you for...
getting in touch with me, I...

(sighing)
I didn't know.

No problem.

He's a tough guy, my dad.

And you know, the... the longer
you go without talking–

The harder it is
to make that call.

And then, eventually,
it's just plain embarrassing

to have a conversation,
you know what I mean?

I do.

I know exactly what you mean.

Thank you, I... I really
appreciate what you did.

Hey, let me know
how he's doing, huh?

I might want to keep
in touch with him.

Sure, I'll give you a call.

Hey, Dad.

Wh-What?
What are you doing here?

(chuckling) You look good.

It's so good to see you.

Hey.

Come here.

(dramatic music)

(soft music)

(phone vibrating)

(clears throat)

Lou, hey.
How's Georgie?

She's still in the hospital?

Yeah, they're keeping her
here for another day or so,

but she's doing much better.

And hey, Katie told me
you handled the situation there

beautifully,
I knew you would.

Well, I did.

Hey, wait, are you... What are
you doing sitting in my chair?

What chair?

Good boy.

(groaning)

(soft music)

Good.

Good boy.

It's Scott.

Scott!

Hey!

Glad to see you two
are safe and sound.

Speaking of which...

- David, it's Winston!
- Hi, buddy!

- Hey!
- Hi!

- Hey, buddy!
- Hi!

- Hi, buddy!
- Hey, Winston!

- Oh, bud! Hi, Winston!
- Oh, good boy!

Oh! We were so worried!

(laughing)

We want to thank you all for
everything you've done for us.

Mm-hmm. Amy worked
her magic on Biscuit

and this family has worked
its magic on us.

- (chuckling)
- Good.

We've had a long talk
and we've decided

to face things and rebuild.

- Oh, good!
- Well, cheers to that!

- Thank you.
- Oh, I'm happy to hear that.

Cheers, thank you.
Thank you.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Thank you,
Jack, for encouraging us.

You're right,
we're young, we can do this.

And thank you
for your kind offer.

It made us feel
that not all was lost.

Of course.

So, what's the plan?

(chuckling)
Well, our neighbour,

the one who lent us the truck,
offered to let us stay with him

and his wife while
we rebuild our own place.

Yeah, and staying here
got us thinking.

Our barn is still standing.

- (chuckling)
- Mm-hmm,

and staying in your beautiful
loft made us think, you know,

we can build our own home
in our barn loft.

Mm-hmm.
It's a start, at least.

And when we rebuild,
we both dream of having

what you all have in this house,

a crowded table full
of family and friends

and you will all be
our first guests.

- Absolutely.
- Thank you.

Thank you, thank you, Jack.

Cheers.

Uh... hey, Shane.

It's Ti... It's your dad.

(chuckling)
Um...

I'm gonna be in New York City

in about a week,
never been there.

Uh...

Anyway, I gave your mother
a call and she told me

that you are in Philadelphia
clerking at a law firm.

Um... and I guess Philadelphia
is close to New York City,

so I was... I was thinking
maybe we could get together,

I would... I would love that.

Anyway, just let me know and...

I'll wait to hear
from you. Bye.
