16x12 - Memory

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on Heartland.

Katie, I saw how upset
you got when you saw Logan

- and his girlfriend.
- She's not his girlfriend!

I put the pieces together.

Yeah. Pieces you only have
because you read my journal.

It's hard for me
to talk about what happened.

Well, the article said
your friend's name was Jay.

I took his keys
and... I drove him home.

It was the last thing
I remember.

I should have gotten
my friend home safe.

(knocking on door)
Sorry, I must

- have the wrong address.
- Who are you looking for?

- Finn Cotter?
- You have the right place.

Finn? Hon?

(guitar music)

Oh, hey! Let me
do that for you.

I got it, Lise.

- Jack, you aren't yet–
- No.

The doctor cleared you
for light exercise,

not heavy... lifting

Any large boulders

we come across
are all yours, I promise.

Starting to doubt
we're ever gonna get there.

What is taking
Katie so long?

Ah!

Hey, hey. Not so fast.
You need to pack

a couple sweaters.
It's gonna get cold at night.

(zipping noise)

So, I haven't really
had a chance

to check in with you yet.

How are you?

This whole thing with Logan,
I know how hard it must be.

I've gotta go, Mom.
GG's waiting.

Aw! I'll see you
in a couple of days, honey.

Be careful with GG,
he's still healing.

Aw, I'm not
that fragile.

You guys sure you're okay
with Katie crashing

- your fishing trip?
- Oh, of course.

We're looking forward
to a little quality time

with our great-granddaughter.
(chuckling)

And she's looking
forward to it as well

and probably looking forward
to getting as far away from

- her mother as possible.
- Aww.

- Have fun, guys.
- We will, okay.

(dog barking)

(Lou):
You're expecting someone?

(Amy): No. I should
probably go check it out.

Yeah. You're
with me, kiddo. Come on.

(truck door opens)

Hi. You're
Amy Fleming, right?

Wow! This place is
every bit as beautiful

as Finn said it was.
I mean... Haha!

Oh! Hi. Sorry.
I'm Kristi.

We met a few weeks ago
when you stopped by the house.

I didn't recognize you
at first, but after you left,

it dawned on me:

you are the horse whisperer
from Hudson,

the one that Finn won't stop
talking about.

Did he ever mention me?

No.

I'm his fiancée.

(theme music)

♪ You sink into
A dream ♪

(door closes)

Um, it's her. It's the girl
from Finn's house.

- Oh, my God! Are you serious?
- Yeah.

Her name is Kristi.

And it gets better.
She's his fiancée.

No, she's not?

- Are you okay?
- I am just...

I'm confused.

- Well, what does she want?
- She wants help with her horse.

No. That is not it.
That's just an excuse.

This is some sort
of weird, manipulative play

on her part
to suss you out.

I can't believe
this is happening, I was...

- I feel terrible.
- Hey, it is not your fault

that Finn was dishonest.
You had no way

of knowing he was engaged.

So what do I do now?
(Lou sighs)

You have to tell her to leave.
(Amy sighs)

- What about her horse?
- No, no. Amy, this is

one of those times you need
to put yourself first.

Oh... God.

Um, I checked my schedule,
and I'm all booked up.

No. Really?

But I... I mean we've come
all this way.

You know, there's lots
of other trainers in the area.

I can give you their number,
and I'm sure they could

help you out. A barn sour horse
is pretty common.

He's not just barn sour.
It's more than that.

Lincoln was
my brother's house,

and he passed away
a few years ago.

(Kristi sighs)
Jay loved Lincoln

- so, so much.
- Jay was your brother?

Did Finn mention him?

You know, I'm... I'm sorry
that I just showed up like this;

I-I just didn't know
where else to go.

But I get it if you're busy,
and I'm sorry

that I bothered you.

Kristi, wait.

I might as well look at him.

Come on, boy.
Come on. Come on.

You can come.
Let's go.

Let's go.
Come on.

See? This is what Lincoln does
whenever he has to go outside.

Come on.
(Amy sighs)

Okay, let me try.

Hey.

He just wants to be
in his stall.

All right. Okay.

Come on. Let's go.

(Lincoln snorts)

I'll get you settled
in the barn, okay?

(door closes)
Hey!

Hey!

I'm so sorry I'm late.

I got delayed at the airport,
and then I was on a work call.

It's okay.
I'm just glad you're here.

Mm-hmm. Me too. What do you

say we head up into
the mountains this weekend?

Huh? We can take Katie
to that restaurant

- she loves outside of Banff.
- Yeah, Katie isn't here.

She decided last minute
to go with her GG's

- to the fishing cabin.
- Oh.

Apparently, she needed
a little break from me.

Okay. Well,

look on the bright side. We have
the weekend to ourselves.

We can have a romantic getaway
up in the mountains

- just me and you.
- I love that idea.

- Good.
- But we can't

because Rick and Carl are coming
for dinner tomorrow night.

It's been on the books
for weeks.

Right. I forgot

- about that.
- And apparently, Carl was

a red seal chef before he got
into flipping houses,

so we need to seriously up
our dinner party game.

Oh! So good to be here.

- Katie, look at this place.
- (Katie): Haha!

- You seem more relaxed already.
- Oh, I am.

Where should I
set up my tent?

Oh, you girls are gonna
stay in the cabin.

- I'll take the tent.
- Jack!

I can rest out here

just as well
as I can inside.

This is Katie's first time,
I want her to have

the full fishing cabin
experience.

Thanks, GG.

You go on inside
and get yourself set up.

Okay.

(door closes)
Georgie,

are you sure
you're okay?

All right.
I love you too. Bye.

What's going on there?

Georgie's dropping out
of her show.

She said Phoenix isn't
feeling up to it.

Well, honestly, I think
that's kind of great.

I mean, she just had
that surgery a few months ago.

Yeah, but she's been looking
forward to this show for weeks.

I mean, I don't buy
her excuse about Phoenix.

Ah, she knows her horse.

Well, I know my daughter.
Something isn't right.

- I should call Quinn.
- No. No, don't do that.

- Why?
- Because you're her mom.

You don't want to call
her boyfriend behind her back.

That's crossing some serious
parental boundaries.

(door opens)
Right?

(door closes)
Hey, Peter.

- Hey, Amy. I'm gonna go unpack.
- Okay.

So, how did it go with Kristi?

- I'm working with her horse.
- Amy...

- What are you thinking?
- I don't know. I guess

I just felt bad for her.

Oh... fine.
Just, um, be careful, okay?

And if you need me
to kick her off the ranch,

like Jack Bartlett style,
just say the word.

Hello?

Oh. Hey.

Uh, sorry.

It's getting late, isn't it?
I should probably

check into my motel. Uh,

is there somewhere
I can wash up first?

Yeah, there's a...
there's a bathroom

- up in the loft there.
- Great.

Um, I guess...

- Yeah.
- Thanks.

(crickets chirping)

Are you sure you're gonna
be okay out here

in that old tent?

I like it out here.
(Lisa chuckles)

You sure you're
gonna be okay

bunking in the cabin
with Katie?

She's a very quiet roommate.
She curled up with her book

- since we got here.
- Yeah.

"Curled up with a book,"
it seems to be her happy place.

Which... leads me
to my surprise.

- Ah...
- Mm-hmm.

It's time.

All right.

Need your help.

- Whoa!
- Okay.

Cabin stays exactly as it is.

Just adding two bedrooms
in the back,

beautiful bathroom,

and my favourite part,

an outdoor kitchen.

- Lise, I–
- Just, just...

Okay. Just let me explain.

I want to turn this place
into a retreat,

a place where we could
all gather together

and not have
to put up tents.

Well, it is
a nice idea.

But as soon as you start

tearing down walls, you find
all kinds of problems

you didn't know existed,

and it's...
Ah, it's better to leave

- well enough alone.
- But if you do,

it's gonna fall into the ground
someday soon.

If you make it a retreat

for the entire family,

then your grandchildren,

your great-grandchildren
and even

your great-great-grandchildren

will be able to gather here
for generations to come.

Will you think
about it for me?

- Okay.
- I'm gonna go to bed.

♪♪♪

Kristi? Is everything okay?
You've been up here a while.

You know,
ever since Finn mentioned

his amazing new friend
from Hudson who could

whisper to horses,

I tried my best
to not be jealous...

...but this photo, I mean,
it's so obvious.

You and Finn are more
than just friends, aren't you?

Finn never once mentioned
that he had a fiancée.

You didn't answer my question.

What was going on
between you two?

This is a conversation
you should probably be having

with Finn, not me. He's the one
who owes you an explanation.

(sniffles)

Actually, he doesn't.

Finn and I broke off
our engagement years ago.

I... told you
that I was

his fiancée
because I wanted to hurt you.

I don't understand.

When Finn came home
to help my dad out,

I guess we sort of
just fell into

old patterns.
I thought maybe there was hope

for us, maybe we could repair

what was broken, but...

he just wouldn't stop talking

about you.

Whatever was going on
between me and Finn is over.

Yeah, well,

that's something we have
in common then, I guess.

Why would you say that?

You obviously still love him.

It's not enough.

(soft piano music)

Finn can't get past his guilt
about my brother.

Did he tell you
about the accident?

Yeah.

You know, Finn wasn't
even drinking that night.

He was driving,
you know, maybe

too fast, but I mean,

he always kind of had
a lead foot.

Finn can't remember
anything about that night.

- Neither can I.
- The article I read said

that there was a third person
in the vehicle.

It was you?

Ah.

We had been out celebrating

end of harvest,
and we were letting loose

at the bar.
I was sleeping it off

in the back of the truck,
and when I woke up...

...I was in the hospital,
and, um...

...and my brother was, uh...

Do you blame Finn?

No. No, I...

You know, I'm so sorry.
I shouldn't have come.

- Kristi?
- No.

- Please, just wait.
- Look, I'll just

- pick up Lincoln in the morning.
- No. Hey.

I'll still work with Lincoln
if that's what you want.

Really?

But even after
what I just told you?

Your horse is innocent
in all this,

and he shouldn't have to suffer.

Just... come back tomorrow,
and we'll get started.

(horse neighs)

Okay.

Yeah.
♪♪♪

(horse snorts)

You know,

I really wanted you
to be a monster.

But you're not.

In a way, that's worse.

♪♪♪

(birds singing)
All right,

Missy, get your things together,
you and I

are going on
a ladies fishing trip.

Ah... Fishing
isn't really my thing.

I know. I didn't
think fishing

was my thing either, and then
your GG introduced me to it,

and now I am hooked.

All right, come on.
Let's get a move on.

There is a bull trout out there
with your name on it.

Do you have any other horses
on your farm?

- No, it's just Lincoln.
- Okay. Well, I put Shadow

in the stall next to him
all night, and they seem

to be getting along
pretty well,

so, hopefully, Lincoln will want
to stay with his new friend.

(Lincoln neighing gently)
It's worth a sh*t.

- ♪♪♪
- Come on.

Okay, wow. Hahaha!

I can't believe this.

Well, he wants to be
with other horses,

and if it means
leaving the barn, then he will.

So that's it?

I mean, this whole time,
all he needed was a buddy?

Well, I doubt
it's that simple,

but we'll go for a trail ride
and find out.

Oh. We're going
on a trail ride?

Saddle up.

Uh... okay.

What's the point?
We're never gonna catch fish.

We most certainly are going
to catch a fish.

I'm determined to show Jack
that I've been

learning over the years.

Ah. There.

Practice makes perfect.

(Lise chuckles)
So, I have noticed that you've

been keeping to yourself
since we got here.

Is everything okay?

- Yep.
- Really?

'Cause it doesn't seem
like it.

You sound
like my mom.

I would have stayed home
if I wanted the third degree.

Okay.

We'll just enjoy
the peace and quiet then.

- Oh! Ah!
- What's wrong? What happened?

Oh, your fly is in my hand.
First-aid kit

- is in the basket, just get that for me.
- Okay. Okay. Um...

(sighing)

(clanging)

(grunts)
Ow.

(chain clinking)

(violin and piano music)

You know, I haven't been able
to take him on a trail ride

like this in so long.

I forgot how much
I enjoyed it.

Before your brother passed,

did Lincoln have trouble
leaving the barn?

No. Uh,

actually, his stall latch
was always broken,

so he used to get out
all the time.

We'd find him in the field

eating grass.

(Lincoln snorting)
Whoa. Whoa.

- Lincoln. Lincoln.
- Circle him around.

- Take control.
- I don't know if I can.

♪♪♪

- Come on, you got this.
- It's okay, it's okay.

Uh, I think he's had enough.
I think we should go back.

Okay. We'll head back
to the barn.

(sighs)

- I'm so sorry.
- Stop apologizing,

- it's not your fault, honey.
- Are you sure you're okay?

Yep, yep, yep.
Here we go.

I'm actually more worried
about you.

I had this crush
on an older guy.

That's all it was,
just a dumb crush,

but... when I saw him
with a girl his own age...

Aw... I bet that hurt.

A lot more than a fish hook
in the hand.

You're not gonna get
on my case about this, are you?

My mom won't let it go,
and it's driving me crazy.

I won't mention this again,
I promise, if that's

what you want, but I just want
to say one thing:

I too have had
a few crushes in my day,

and I'm sure
your mom has too,

and I think that's why
she's on your case.

Because she knows
how painful it is,

and she can't just put
a Band-Aid on your broken heart.

Be patient.

Can we go back
to fishing now?

Yes. Let's go back
to fishing, shall we?

Hahaha!

(Kristi laughing)

- I'm sorry.
- Did I miss something?

No, it's just I...

It's kind of nuts that I just
showed up here like this.

I mean, oh, what you must

think of me.
You know, I never thought

- that I'd be the jealous ex.
- Yeah.

I never thought I'd be
the other woman,

but here we are.

Honestly, you have
nothing to be jealous about.

Are you kidding me?

Have you met you? I mean,
in case you haven't noticed,

you are insanely gorgeous,

not to mention
smart and...

genuinely really kind.

I... I see what Finn sees.

So if... if you and Finn

really want to be together,

I won't stand in your way.

My husband d*ed
three years ago.

And...

I thought I was ready
to move on,

but I still haven't
brought myself to

take these rings off and...

And his name was Ty.

And I still love him
with all my heart,

and... I'm not ready
to move on.

Not with Finn,
not with anyone.

I'm... I'm so sorry
for your loss.

I'm sorry for yours.

Ahem! You know,
maybe we could, uh,

drop the whole "jealous ex"
and "other woman" thing,

and we could just
be ourselves.

(Amy chuckles)
(horse neighs)

- I would like that.
- Me too.

Hey, GG.

Well, we didn't catch

- anything unfortunately.
- Uh-huh?

Unless you consider
my hand. Haha!

- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

And you?
How was your day?

Did you get a chance
to consider

my proposal about
the renovation?

I did,

and I made up my mind.

I don't want
to just renovate the cabin.

I want to bulldoze
the whole place to the ground.

Honey, I–I only meant
a renovation to add something.

I'm... I don't mean
to tear it down.

No, it's too old
to renovate, Lise.

Better to start fresh.

Okay.

That's not... that not like you.
What is going on?

Nothing.

Just...

something I found in the shed
changed my mind.

(sighs)

And what were you doing
in the shed?

Looking for tools.

Go on.

But I found
something in there,

some old whisky bottles.

The brand my dad
used to drink.

I see.

I don't have
a lot of happy memories of him,

but the fishing trips,
they were pretty good.

At least, they always
started out good.

When I found those bottles,

it reminded me
of the day I caught

my first fish
all on my own.

I couldn't wait

to show my dad.
I ran about

two miles back
to the cabin

as fast as I could run,

holding that fish
like it was a piece of gold.

Hahaha!

And I found him

passed out on the floor...

whisky bottle
still in his hand.

See, the truth is
he was the same man out here

as he was at home,

a drunk.

So let's wipe
the slate clean,

start again.

We'll build new memories,
better ones.

Quinn? Hi.

Yeah. How...
how is Georgie doing?

Yeah, that's why I'm calling.
Why do you think she dropped out

of the show?

A tooth abscess? Wow!

Okay. Well, I-I-I hope

Phoenix is feeling
better now.

I should go too. Okay.
Just tell Georgie to call me

when she's free.

(beep)
I had to check.

Lou, Georgie's an adult,
she doesn't need her mom

calling her boyfriend behind
her back to check up on her.

And you really think
that Quinn would betray

- her trust anyway?
- If he was concerned, yes.

Well, then let him come to you,
don't back him into a corner.

At least, now I have
peace of mind.

You just can't leave
well enough alone, can you?

- What do you mean?
- Look who I found.

- Hey.
- Oh. Rick, hi.

I know I'm early.

It's a compulsive thing.
Mother always said,

"If you're on time, you're
late." I was just gonna wait

in the car,
but, uh, Amy spotted me.

Ha!

- Good to see you, Rick.
- You too.

The work husband
and the actual husband finally

- reunited.
- Haha! Right, at long last.

Speaking of husbands,
where's Carl?

Oh. He got caught up at work,
it was a last-minute thing.

A little vino?

- Oh. Thank you, it's lovely.
- Yes.

So, where's Katie?

She went fishing
with her GG's.

She needed a little break
from her parents.

Yeah. Her parents.
She needed a break.

Mm-hmm. Honey,
why don't you open this. I'll

- get started on the cheese board.
- Absolutely.

- Great.
- Love to.

I'm sorry

to interrupt you,
but I'm curious.

You've been writing
in that notebook

all weekend.
What are you working on?

♪♪♪

I don't really know.
Sort of a poem, I guess.

- You guess?
- It's...

not like the poems
I read in school.

It's not nearly as good.

Well, maybe if you're up
to it, you'd let me read it.

No pressure.

I don't think so.

It's not really serious,
just messing around.

(chuckles)

Well, if you change
your mind...

Dinner is
absolutely delicious.

- You've both outdone yourselves.
- Hmm.

Oh, don't look at me,
this was... this was all Lou.

I mean, I offered to help
of course, but you know her,

she's a one-woman show.

I just can't seem to leave
well enough alone.

- Uh, I could use a top up.
- But you know,

maybe that's
because I am alone

so often. I guess
I've just learned to adjust.

I'll just, uh...
I'll just get it myself.

Yes, huh? I think
you're adjusting just fine.

Yeah, you're, uh,

definitely the top chef
in this family, Lou.

I mean, I try to load the dishwasher, but
then you just rearrange the plates on me.

Yeah, I'm not worried about the plates;
it's the knives you put in upside down.

Everybody knows
sharp end goes down.

- Not if it's a butter Kn*fe.
- Haha!

Clearly, this isn't
about knives.

I think we all just need

- to take a deep breath.
- Rick, ahem,

I'm sorry. We are being rude.

Yeah, I'm being serious
about the breaths.

Both of you, in...

(Lou and Peter inhale)

And out.
(Lou and Peter exhale)

- Yeah, thanks.
- Yeah. Now I want you both

to look at each other.
Meaningful eye contact.

Next, we're going to open up
the lines of communication.

Peter, I'd like you

to go first.
Start your sentence

with "I feel".

(clock ticking)

(scoffs) That's...
Yeah, I'm not doing that.

- Okay?
- Uh, you know what?

No, it's... it's good.
Why don't we just

get it all out
in the open.

I feel like you come on too
strong with Katie and Georgie.

You're a helicopter parent,
and you never let them

figure things out on their own.
(Lou scoffs)

Oh. Haha! Well, okay.
Well, that's...

- that's a good start.
- I feel

like you leave
all the parenting

to me. I'm always
the bad cop,

and the only thing
you're interested in are

fun camping trips and... and taking Katie
to her favourite restaurant in Banff.

Literally all
you let me do, Lou.

- You don't step up.
- You don't involve me.

- You're not here!
- I was literally here today.

I told you, "Do not call Quinn,"
and you did it anyway.

Yeah, I did it anyway
because your idea

- of parenting is doing nothing!
- You're pushing them away.

Okay?

Every time you call Georgie's
boyfriend behind her back

and every time
you read Katie's diary,

you're pushing them away.

That's what's happening.

Don't...
(Peter sighs)

I'm gonna go make sure
she's okay.

Okay, great.

- Best friend duty.
- Sure.

Oh.

Ah.

Ah...

Ooh. Okay, honey,

we'll see you
this afternoon.

Do you have
everything you need?

Yeah, yeah.
I'm... I'm good here.

So have fun and...
and good luck.

Um...

I-I finished it
last night.

It's probably terrible.

No, probably not.

Hahaha!

Oh, I look forward
to reading.

Come on!
Fish are biting!

Oh, Rick, you're...
you're still

- here?
- Yeah. I slept on the couch.

I didn't want to drive.
Uh, a little too much wine.

- You and me both.
- Hmm.

Thank you for staying up
with me last night.

Well, after my failed attempt

at couple's therapy,
it was the least I could do.

So, have
you and Peter made up?

(distant dog barking)
No.

He spent the night
in the barn loft.

Hmm.

(door closes)
Hey.

Oh. Good morning.

Sit down, both of you.
I made brunch.

Wow.

Okay.

Thanks, Rick.
This... this looks great.

- Thank you.
- Yeah, thanks so much.

Enjoy.
(Peter clears his throat)

(cell phone vibrating)

(Peter clears his throat)
(cell phone stops vibrating)

Um...

Rick, you know, I'm curious,
did, uh...

did Carl really cancel
because he had a last-minute

work thing or...
is something else going on?

Before you answer that,

make sure you start
your sentence with "I feel".

I deserve that.

The truth is Carl and I,
we... we had a fight.

Yesterday, Carl decided
to set up a crib

in the spare bedroom,
and... I lost it.

We're so close
to adopting a baby,

but... there's
still a chance

something could go wrong.

Nothing's guaranteed.

I don't want that crib
to be a reminder

of... what we never got to have.

(soft piano music)
I totally get that.

We, uh...

we actually came close
to losing Georgie once.

Her brother almost fought us
for custody.

Yeah. When you're dealing
with adoption, you know,

there's just so much
that's out of your control.

The only way really
to get through it is

by being there
for each other,

even when you don't see
eye to eye.

You know, I should
probably get home.

- Oh.
- I owe Carl an apology.

Thank you for everything.

- Good luck.
- Thanks.

See ya. Thanks
for breakfast.

Mm-hmm.

(Lou sighs)
(door opens)

(door closes)
I don't want to fight anymore.

- Me neither.
- We just...

We both want
the same thing, right?

For our kids to be happy.
And... and I know

I need to let go a little,

let them come to me.

And I need to be
here... more.

Not just for the good times
but for the bad.

We are so lucky
we have these two amazing kids.

(Peter chuckles)
And...

we're still together
despite everything.

And we still love each other.

More than ever.

Well, this is the spot
where he acted up yesterday.

- He seems okay so far.
- Good to keep going?

Yeah. Hey. Come on.

Come on. Tsk, tsk.

(Lincoln snorting and neighing)
There he goes again.

I think it might have
something to do with the road.

(Kristi smacking her lips)
Come on, Lincoln. Lincoln...

(car honks)
(tires screeching)

(whinnying)
Easy.

- No! Oh!
- Kristi!

(whinnies)

(tires screeching)
(crash noise)

(whinnies)

(Amy): Hey.

Are you okay?
(tires screeching)

(car honks)

(Lincoln snorts)

Oh, it's definitely the road
that he's afraid of.

I remember now.

I wasn't asleep.
I saw him.

You saw who?

Lincoln.

He was on the road that night.

He caused the accident.

(soft guitar music)

Look out!

(crash noise)

Lincoln's in the stall.
He's safe.

Are you okay?

You know, that night's
always been

like a black hole.

And now it's
clear as day.

So is that why
Finn drove off the road?

Because he was trying
to avoid Lincoln?

Not exactly. Uh,

it was my brother.

Look out!

(Kristi): When he saw
Lincoln on the road,

he grabbed the steering wheel.

It happened so fast.
There wasn't anything Finn

could have done.

Well, now you know, right?

What good is knowing?

Nothing has changed.

I lost everything
in that accident.

No, not everything.

You still have Finn.

And if guilt and blame is
what's been keeping you apart,

then, now that
you know the truth,

you can find your way back
to each other.

- (sniffles)
- What about Lincoln?

Well, we know that it's
the road he's been running from

this whole time.

So we have to go back there.

But not until you two
trust each other.

Charlie Scalise! Ah!

- What?
- I... I...

I've been trying
to remember his name

since yesterday.
Charlie Scalise.

I had...
an epic crush on a boy.

He trained horses
for my dad and my mom,

and, uh, I could swear

that every time I saw him,
the earth moved.

(Lise chuckles)

And then, he and I ended up
training a horse together,

and I started to realize
he is kind of dull,

and he always had

a lot of food stuck
in his teeth. I mean, like

a weirdly large amount of food.
(Katie chuckles)

I'd put him on that pedestal,

and I'd made him out
to be perfect.

And then I just...
he was...

was kind of average.
All that to say,

that there are

plenty of fish
in the river,

and you, my darling,
have plenty of time

to catch the right one.

And I wish I had known that
when I was your age.

Would have saved me
a lot of pain.

- Lisa, I think I've got something.
- You do?

- Yeah.
- Oh, wait. Wait, wait, wait! Uh, fish on.

Fish on. Fish on.
Hold on. Hold on.

- Where did I see it?
- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

- It is a big fish!
- Right.

- Bringing it to you.
- Okay.

Okay, a little bit more.
Give me this. Ah!

- Oh! Oh!
- Oh, my God!

Oh, my goodness!
Hey, look at that!

Okay. I want you
to get him moving.

(Kristi smacking her lips)

Come on.

That's it.
(Kristi clicking her tongue)

Drive him around.

(smacking her lips)
(clicking her tongue)

- There you go.
- Come on.

(Lincoln snorting softly)
(Kristi smacking her lips)

- There you go.
- Come on.

(Kristi smacking her lips)

(Kristi clicking her tongue)
Let's go.

(Kristi smacking her lips)
And when you're ready,

I want you to turn
your back to him.

Let him come to you.
(Lincoln neighs)

(Kristi takes a deep breath)
(Lincoln snorts)

(sighs)

(Lincoln snorting softly)

Hey.

(Lincoln snorting gently)
Hey.

♪♪♪

(chuckles)

Hey, buddy.

Hey, just stay calm,
all right?

Sit deep in the saddle.

- Let him know he's safe.
- Okay.

(Lincoln snorting)
Whoa, it's okay.

It's okay.

(vehicle approaching)

That was really good.

Oh, my God.

Come on, buddy.

(Lincoln snorting gently)
(Kristi smacking her lips)

♪♪♪

Whoa.

Good boy.

This is the Lincoln I remember,
the way he used to be.

How did it go?

I caught and released
my very first trout.

That's my girl! I knew

- you could do it.
- Haha!

- Well, I had a great teacher.
- Ah.

And what did you
get up to all day?

Well, I read
Katie's beautiful poem.

Oh?

- You liked it?
- I more than liked it.

After I read it,
I couldn't get

the words out of my head.

Pretty soon,
I... started hearing

a tune to go with those words.

Oh, well, I want
to hear it. Haha!

That's up to Katie.
They're your words

- after all.
- Uh,

- yeah, okay.
- Okay.

Ah.

For you.

- It's lovely. Awww... Hahaha!
- Hehe!

Oof.

This place has
some great memories.

- Yeah.
- And this trip was no different.

Oh, it was pretty great,

- even if I couldn't fish.
- Hmm.

(Jack chuckles)

It would be
a real shame

if finding some old
liquor bottles ruined

what this place
means to you.

Ah, you're right.

I can't let my dad
take away

any more of my happiness
than he already has,

which is why I won't be
tearing down the cabin.

I'm keeping it exactly
as it is.

So...

no renovations at all?

A lot of stories
in those walls, Lise.

Gotta hang onto the memories.

Mm-hmm.

The outdoor kitchen?

All right.

We'll build
the outdoor kitchen,

- but that's it.
- For now.

(both chuckling)

(Lincoln snorting gently)

So, Finn told me you hate
being called the miracle girl.

- (embarrassed sigh)
- But, honestly,

I don't know what else
to call what you did.

You really did that
all on your own.

I just put you
on the right road.

- Quite literally.
- (chuckling)

So what now?

Home.

I need to tell Finn
what I remember.

But... I still don't know
if there's a way forward for us.

You want to try?

Yeah. I think I do.
