[Mel]: Previously on Arctic Air...

You do have feelings for me.

I came here not to get stuck.

They're not gonna hurt you, Caitlin. I'm gonna fix this.

That Nelson kid, he saw you.

I know enough to put you away!

[sh*t fires]

[Reporter]: A second m*rder victim has been found...

Heard you took over your uncle's business...

...after he d*ed.

After he was m*rder*d.

The only reason why I'm still alive is because they think I'm dead.

I heard about some guys who are real good exterminators.

[Onlookers]: Ooh...

[Krista]: Petra told me what happened.

It was just a kiss, that's all.

No. Listen to me.

It has to be honest, or it is over.

You have my word.

It's just a weekend in Edmonton.

[Loreen scoffs]: I'm sorry.

It is not going to happen.

Tommy and I have been saving up for weeks.

[Loreen]: Well, you can forget about it.

What's wrong with you?

I have asked you to slow things down with Tommy.

Why do you hate him so much?

I just don't want to see you do something stupid.

I don't care what you say. We're going.

I am responsible for you.

You're not my mother! I can do what I want!

[Loreen roars]: The hell you can!

Not while you're living in my house.

Fine. I'll move out.

Perfect!

Caitlin. Caitlin! Come back here!

Teenage girls... Nothing quite like 'em.

[Door bangs]

I am not cut out for this.

Nobody is. Trust me.

Krista was a whole lot worse.

Yeah? Not possible.

Ohh.

Used to really wind me up. Thought I'd blow a gasket.

I'm supposed to be the adult.

I suppose I should go talk to her.

Couldn't hurt.

Season finale Ts'inada -

You want us to pick it up today?

Uh, hold on a second.

Uh, I think we can.

W... how many tons?

That'd take a DC-3.

We can have one there...

In a couple of days, maybe?

No. Well... [chuckles]

I-I'm not sure.

Look, I don't usually...

Hold on a sec! d*ck Welsh.

Wants a cargo pick-up today.

d*ck. Loreen here.

No, not today.

I've told you before. We're not a cab company.

Tomorrow, nine A.M. best we can do.

Okay. You too.

Mel and Krista not back from trout lake yet?

Should be here soon.

Where the hell were you?

Looking for Caitlin.

She didn't come home last night.

Well, did you check with her friends?

No one's seen her.

Well, she's probably out with Tommy.

It's his day off, and his phone is going straight to voice mail.

If she's hiding out at his place, I swear...

How about I go over there?

I was going to.

No. You're needed here. Really.

[Phone starts ringing]

[Knocking]

[Hall door opens]

Bobby?

I'm looking for Caitlin.

She isn't at work?

No. She didn't come home last night, either.

That's weird.

When's the last time you talked to her?

Yesterday. You know, she never texted me goodnight, though.

She never forgets.

Well, did she say anything about going anywhere, visiting a friend?

Nothing. And she would.

I mean, maybe she might have gone up to Jackson River.

I know one of her cousins called her from there a while back.

Not likely.

Jackson River wasn't a great place for Caitlin.

Then where is she?

[Sighs]

Are you guys getting along?

Yeah, yeah, we're great, except for the whole Loreen thing.

Yeah, right.

I don't get it, though. Why would she just take off?

[Sighs heavily]
We'll keep looking.

Okay. I'll come with you.

All right.

Hey, I'm flying with you today.

Hmm? No. No. No, no, no.

No, no, no. Astrid and I are going to San Francisco.

Just the two of us.

I hate to spoil your plans, but I need you to drop me off so I can pick up the plane that was grounded last week.

Where is that?

Abbotsford.

[Quietly]: Abbotsford.

Oh, that is okay, then.

Astrid and I will still be alone for part of the trip.

♪

We know he's not used to traveling unaccompanied.

I understand.

Only the best for Boris.

Okay, then. Bye-bye.

[Thumps phone down]

Is this about our trip to San Francisco?

It's about our passenger, Boris.

Mark is very nervous about his flight.

It's crazy.

Oh, no.

I would be the same way about my child.

You know, should I become a parent some day.

Ahem.

So how old is Boris?

Seven.

That's young to be traveling alone.

Not if you're a dog.

Boris? Boris!

The dog I was reading about in the Yellowknifer?

He inherited $10 million from his late owner.

And now he's going to live in San Francisco with our client.

Who would leave $10 million to a dog?

Surprisingly, many people.

I googled it!

I'm very excited to meet Boris in person.

He is a celebrity! Hmm?

♪

[Loreen]: Okay, thanks. Bye.

If you hear anything, call me back, all right?

Thanks.

Can you think of anybody else?

That's everybody. Nobody's seen her.

[Sighing]

Hey, maybe I can just drive around town and just look.

I know you want to help, but I don't think you're gonna find her like that.

I have to do something.

Thanks.

She's not at the hospital.

Are you Loreen?

Yeah.

For you.

What is it?

Some guy told me to drop it off here.

[Shrieking]

[Crying out]

[Loreen]: Oh, my God.

[Man on video]: We have Caitlin.

We'll trade her for her brother.

Call the cops, and she dies.

What are we supposed to do?

We have to wait.

They're gonna k*ll her!

They'll contact us again.

But we can't give them what they want!

No, but once they're talking, we'll work out some kind of deal.

We'll get her back.

Bobby, we have to go to the police.

Look, it's too risky.

[Mel]: Any news on Caitlin yet?

We have to talk.

So talk.

♪

You guys want to grab something to eat before we split up?

Oh, excellent idea.

I will join you shortly.

I believe Boris needs a walk.

He was rather cramped in the plane.

He had the whole cargo area to himself.

I know, but he is used to the wide-open spaces of the North.

Of course.

And now we're taking him to live in the big city.

Yes.

What?

Dev is taking Boris to have a last look at nature.

Exactly. Okay, let's go, boy.

Bye!

You two really speak the same language, don't you?

♪

Hey. Did they find Caitlin?

No.

She's...

It's okay.

Nelson has to know.

That's crazy! He's gonna want to trade himself in for Caitlin.

It's su1c1de.

That's his decision to make.

Right now, it's ours, and we got to talk to these guys to try to make a different deal.

We have to tell him. She's his sister.

I'll see if I can get him on the sat phone.

Meantime, there's something I need you to do.

What are they doing?

Maybe they're just trying to work out a plan.

Well, why aren't we a part of it?

Hey. What's going on?

Just trust me.

What's that supposed to mean?

We're doing everything we can to get Caitlin back.

Well, then, tell us what's going on.

We want to help!

I'll be back soon.

[Sighs]

But you see, Astrid is a very complicated person.

Nevertheless, I have become very attached to her.

Actually, more than attached.

But the problem is, I cannot comprehend her feelings for me.

You know, sometimes she is warm.

Incredibly warm.

Even hot.

Yet at other times, she can be as cold as a frozen arctic char.

It is very perplexing, and I can see no clear course for our relationship.

You are a very good listener.

Ohh.

I'm sorry about the girl, but I don't know anything about it.

You had a problem with Nelson.

No, my uncle had problems with Nelson.

So did some bikers down South.

I don't got a problem with anybody.

Right.

Maybe Nelson should make the trade.

Him for his sister.

Nelson is dead.

Well, then the girl's in big trouble.

[Sighs heavily]

Okay, maybe I can help.

Really?

Yeah.

I know we've had our disagreements, but I just want us to work together again.

I'll see what I can do.

I thought you didn't know anything about this.

I don't.

But I still have my uncle's contacts.

I'll try to get in touch.

See what I can find out.

And you'd do all this for Arctic Air?

I don't like this whole thing.

There's too many missing aboriginal women out there.

[Banging on glass]

♪

This is terrible!

One minute, we were having a pleasant conversation, and the next, he was gone.

Who was gone?

Boris! He has run away.

You lost a $10-million dog?

I took off his leash to give him some privacy.

You know? And then he was gone!

Please!

All right.

Please, please.

Okay.

Okay.

Another message?

That envelope was outside the door with the cell phone in it.

Is that it? No note?

[Mel]: Nothing.

[Starts ringing]

Who the hell is this?

[Caitlin sobbing]: Please. Please help me.

They say they want Nelson, and they'll k*ll me if they don't get him.

I've told them he's dead, but they won't believe me.

Please, I...

[Speaking Dene]

[Man slaps her]: English!

She's still alive.

You want to keep her that way, give us her brother.

We don't get him, she's dead.

You'll get another call.

Better answer it.

She looked so scared.

Go tell Kirby to refuel the beaver.

But...

You still work here, don't you?

You gonna fly up there?

Yeah. Not getting through on the sat phone.

You're flying? Where?

[Bangs door shut]

You're gonna tell me what's going on, and you're going to tell me right now.

Nelson's alive?

We've been keeping it quiet.

Forget that he's my dad.

Forget that you and I are together.

We're partners, the three of us.

Business partners.

And you didn't tell me that there were bikers smuggling dr*gs on our planes!

We didn't think you needed to know.

[Scoffs]

Nelson sh*t Zach Ward?

I-I can't...

I can't believe that he would do that.

Kid saved my life. Zach was gonna k*ll me.

What about that biker?

Yeah.

That's why they took Caitlin.

Drug smuggling, sh**ting, bikers.

And I didn't need to know?

I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

I'm sorry!

[Slam]

What do we do now?

I'm flying up to get Nelson.

I'm going with you.

From now on, I'm in this all the way.

Bobby told you?

Yeah.

We need to keep this quiet.

If anyone asks about Caitlin, make up some story.

Tommy's seen the videos.

Okay, but he doesn't need to know that Nelson is alive.

Well, why keep it a secret if the bikers already know?

But maybe they don't.

This whole thing might be a fishing expedition, a way to smoke Nelson out.

If you're in this, then come on, let's go.

♪

If that was my child, he could have been kidnapped.

He might have broken his collarbone falling off a swing set.

Somebody saw Boris in a playground?

No, nah. Dev is talking about how he will neglect his imaginary child.

You didn't find him?

No luck.

It's getting late.

Maybe we should go back.

No. No. We have to keep looking.

Boris may be afraid of the dark.

He's a dog.

Dogs... love the dark.

They do?

If we don't find him, we'll crash tonight, we'll try again tomorrow.

Okay.

Hello?

Come on foot. No cops.

Wait! We need time to...

You can't go without Nelson!

Nelson is dead.

Look, I'll talk to them. Try and cut a deal.

It's too dangerous.

There's no choice.

He's dead. Couple of your buddies k*lled him.

Wrong answer.

We don't want money. We want Nelson.

We don't get him, the girl dies.

What the hell happened?

The negotiation didn't go that well.

Where's Tommy?

He's getting cleaned up.

The kidnappers called again.

They want us to take Nelson to Ts'inada.

Why there?

Small community.

Easy to spot any cops flying in.

They want to meet at the terminal tomorrow morning at 10:30.

Did Mel find Nelson?

Yeah. He was out hunting.

It was too late to take off by the time they found him.

They're spending the night.

I'll call Mel, let him know what's happening.

Thanks, Bobby.

They want to do the exchange at Ts'inada tomorrow.

Well, let's go now.

We'll go first thing in the morning.

We can't go at all. They'll k*ll you.

Look, I've made a lot of mistakes, I know that, okay?

But Caitlin can't be the one who pays for them.

It has to be me.

[Krista]: We gotta call the cops.

We'd have to explain what this is all about.

Nelson could go to jail.

Better than getting k*lled.

Easy for the bikers to get to him in jail.

Doesn't matter what happens to me.

Bobby and I have a plan worked out.

I really think we can handle this on our own.

Like you've handled it so far?

Yes, that is correct.

Put it out there.

Either she feels the same way you do, or she doesn't.

Buy gold teeth?

I hope he has the opportunity to find out.

What would you do with that kind of money?

Buy a nice house in Yellowknife, spend money on my children.

They would grow up spoiled.

If they grew up at all, I'd probably lose them in the woods first.

My feelings for you, they are very serious.

I would... I would probably, uh...

Use that money... To go traveling.

We can go on holidays.

Yeah. Her dad was hoping she wasn't traveling with those two.

I don't blame him.

One of those guys was a real sh*t-brick.

Rented him a damaged machine.

Damaged how?

Boris, come!

It is hopeless.

Well, a trained dog should know how to come when he is called.

Boris!

He has to cash in his inheritance.

Boris. Come! Be rich.

I would prefer that you not touch me.

Last night, you wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.

No.
