03x03 - Moving On Part 2

[bunniefuu]

Carole, voice-overLast time on "The Saddle Club"...

Carole...

I know how much you love Pine Hollow,

but I have no choice.

I called your Aunt Penny.

But no!

That's hundreds of miles away!

He's kind of big, isn't he?

JackAh, he's a baby. Aren't you, Savage?

Ah!

VeronicaTough break for Carole.

As if you'd care.

I heard she's staying with Stevie.

Oh, yeah?

I talked to Lisa.

She says her mom will let Carole stay with them.

VeronicaSad to hear you might be leaving.

Look, I'm sure you'll make the right decision.

Although, if you did stay,

one of them would be really hurt.

Kristi, what a shame you couldn't be here.

This just might be the end of the Saddle Bags.

[donkey brays]

[laughter]

I worried about Carole all night,

how we let her down.

I couldn't sleep either.

We had a chance, and we messed up.

I've got it!

What?

What if Carole's auntie can't take her?

Then she'll have to stay with us.

But it's all arranged.

So? Let's un-arrange it!

[knock on door]

Col. HansonReady?

Nearly.

You know, I had an email from your Aunt Penny.

Apparently, she's far too busy

to offer the level of care that I expect

and suggests that we look for alternatives.

Really?

Hmm.

It's funny, though.

I just got through talking to her

about an hour ago and she didn't mention it.

It's as though the email was sent by

someone else.

Well, whoever it was,

you might want to tell her, or them,

that impersonating a Hanson

is a very serious offense.

My e.t.d. has been moved forward.

I ship out in less than hours.

So will you and Starlight.

Starlight's coming with me?

Now, Carole, you know that's impossible.

So where's he going, then?

I spoke to my commanding officer,

and he's agreed to have Starlight

inducted into the Regimental Guard.

You're putting Starlight in the military?

It's an honor, Carole.

He will troop the colors every morning.

But he's a riding school horse.

He likes being ridden on the open trails,

with the sun on his back and the wind through his mane.

He'll be fed and quartered better than ever

and fully retrained by qualified military personnel.

AmeliaIt's a circle, Murray.

Don't put a corner on it!

Must be a boy thing.

Indeed, Veronica.

Speaking of which, where is my new boy?

Have fun, big guy.

Bye.

Stop there!

Group two, I have told you repeatedly

that each half-circle

must cross the center-line at degrees.

But you said no corners.

It's not a corner, Phil, it's a right angle.

While I'm away, Veronica, you may run the class.

You're joking!

And by the time I get back,

I want this serpentine perfect!

I'll make sure to get the message across, Miss Amelia, thanks.

Perfect!

Right. Do we call her "Miss Veronica"?

Veronica, on megaphoneThat's enough, Phil!

Group two, back to your holding position.


Group one, we'll show them how it's done.

Where is she?

LisaHe's not here!

She must have taken him out early.

I guess she wants to be alone today.

Can you blame her after how we carried on?

Maybe she's angry about that email we sent.

So she's just gonna do what her dad wants?

Let's face it, Carole's her own worst enemy.

We've got to save that girl from herself.

But how?

She won't listen.

She will if we make her.

What?

We'll take Carole up to the secret place on Mountain Lake,

then we'll talk some sense into her.

We have to find her first.

Hey, Jack.

How's it going?

What happened to you?

Oh, this?

I did it last night.

Old riding injury.

It'll come good.

AmeliaAh, Simon!

There you are!

Help Simon tack up for his riding assessment.

Thank you, Jack.

I don't think so.

I beg your pardon?

Oh, it's nothing to worry about.

It'll be good as new in a couple of weeks.

[chuckles]

It's a miracle?

Veronica, on megaphoneMurray, that's not a right angle!

Stop cutting corners, Luke!

Haven't you guys got any idea?

You don't make a full circle, Phil!

Concentrate!

[megaphone squeals] Show some respect!

You OK, Veronica?

Ha ha ha!

Where's my megaphone?!

Come on.

[donkey brays]

MelanieShh!

JessieYou are trouble.

We've got to hide him somewhere.

What about behind the couch?

Worth a try.

[donkey grunts]

JessieWe'll get you a bowl of water, and maybe some fruit.

Hey, give us a hand.

You're going to be safe and warm.

This should do the trick.

It's his own little house.

Lucky we cleaned up my room before my mom found anything.

You made such a mess.

MelanieSo cute.

Here you go, boy.

I love you, Trouble.

Ohh!

Come on!

Sorry.

It's OK.

Uh, we've got to go.

Me, too. Um, don't tell anyone you've seen me.

We won't.

[beeps and twitters]

[sniffs]

JackSimon?

Simon, where are you?

[knock on door]

[Trouble grunts]

[grunting]

JackSimon, where are you?

Simon, you there, mate?

[sniffs]

[Jack sighs]

What are you doing there? You hiding?

I'm not the only one. Hey?

There's something hiding over there behind that couch.

Something like what?

I think it's a horse.

[chuckles] A horse?

This is a lounge, Simon, for people.

We keep the horses in the stable.

But I'm sure I saw--

Come on, Miss Amelia's gunning for you, so get out there now!

Jack, I'm telling you I saw something with furry ears!

Well, it could be raccoons. We had them last winter.

I can tell the difference between a raccoon and a horse.

Well, I wonder that sometimes.

Jack!

Come on! Stop mucking around!

LisaDid you get everything?

You two.

Stevie, Lisa...

Where's Carole?

You haven't seen her?


Well, not since this morning.

Where can she be?

You're doing the wrong thing, Colonel Hanson.

Carole should be staying with us.

We just need more time to sort it out.

I'm sorry, ladies, but time is something

that you both don't have.

Carole and I ship out in hours,

and Starlight needs to be transported to the base.

Starlight?

She didn't tell you?

Starlight is being honored with a posting

with the Regimental Guard.

What?!

He'll hate it!

I really don't have time for this.

Where is she?

We don't know. Do we, Stevie?

Haven't got a clue.

LisaSo we'll just keep exercising our horses.

You're gonna miss this, aren't you?

Probably only military-issue grass from now on.

It's all right, Starlight.

I won't let them break your spirit.

I've done what he's told me all my life.

Not anymore.

We'll never be parted, Starlight.

Never.

She's there somewhere.

Carole!

Carole!

Carole!

Where are you, Carole?!

I know Amelia's not happy.

Neither are the students.

She's just got such great qualifications.

Not at this age level.

Sometimes when teachers scream and shout and get upset,

it's because they're not very good instructors.

Yeah.

Yeah, you're right. She should go.

How do you want to break it to her?

You're the manager.

Yeah, I know, but can't you do it?

It's not working out.

What are you, a man or a mouse?

Colonel Hanson.

Oh, Colonel, nice to see you.

I don't have time for the niceties, ma'am.

I have searched everywhere.

Now, where in the heck is my daughter?

LisaWhere are you, Carole?!

StevieCarole!

LisaIt's us, Carole!

Just wait.

StevieListen.

[bird caws]

I don't like this.

Where is she?

Bright Stone Beach?

Or maybe the hill?

StevieLet's go.

We've got to find her.

Carole!

Are you OK?

Have you stopped fighting?

That was years ago.

We're sorry.

It was stupid.

We're not in competition.

We're with you... and Starlight.

You heard?

Your dad's looking for you.

I don't care what he says.

Nobody's gonna retrain Starlight.

They wouldn't give him enough attention.

They wouldn't understand him.

StevieOf course not.

Remember the time the balloons burst at the fairgrounds?

I could feel his heart pounding through the saddle.

How's he gonna be if they fire r*fles near him?

It's OK.

It's not going to happen.

CaroleNo, because I'm gonna keep him hidden

for as long as it takes.

We're not going back.

Carole...

Are you sure?

Are you with me or not?

I'm sorry, Colonel. I could not find her anywhere.

[sighs]

Don't you keep track of movements in and out?

Not really.

When it comes to the horses,

the students are free

to come and go as they please.

Veronica?

You haven't seen Carole around, have you?

Carole... uh, let me think.

Yeah, I saw her ride out this morning,


on the Wilderness Trail?

I think I know where she is.

CaroleAlmost there.

StevieOoh, it's too heavy.

All together.

I'm so tired.

I didn't sleep much last night.

Ohh, me neither.

Come on, you guys!

All we got to do is take care of the horses

and stay awake.

If anyone comes, we just ride off.

Lisa, are we gonna do this or not?

[thud]

Look at the size of these bite marks.

[Trouble nickers]

[brays]

Mmm. Amelia, hi.

Do you have a moment?

Woeful students, worse facilities,

a disgraceful level of discipline,

and now, a donkey!

A what?

A donkey just bowled me over in the yard!

We don't have donkeys.

No, what you have is anarchy.

It's impossible.

If I stay, I'll end up leaving on a stretcher!

You'd prefer not to stay?

I'm going to a proper riding school,

where students do exactly as they're told.

And there are no donkeys!

Best of luck.

Hmm.

CaroleLisa, wake up!

No, I'm fine.

Leave me alone.

CaroleHave they got enough feed?

StevieYep.

And plenty of water.

CaroleGood you brought the blankets.

Yeah.

CaroleLisa, wake up.

Carole, we're so mega sorry.

You should be,

the way you deserted me at JB's.

You're not the only ones who couldn't sleep.

At first, I was scared of taking off,

but now I know it was the right thing to do.

Wake up!

CaroleHow about we sing to stay awake?

LisaDon't want to.

We could name every single part of a horse.

No, thanks.

I know.

You know the board up in Max's office,

"The Rider's Duty"?

How does it go, again?

Can't remember.

You start.

OneAnyone who takes charge of a horse

assumes responsibility for...

Carole and StevieThe living creature entrusted to their care.

Don't be upset, Jack.

Isn't he gorgeous?

His name is Trouble.

Where'd you find him?

JessieHe found us.

We can keep him... can't we?

Please? Please?

I'll have to do some calling around,

see if anyone's lost a donkey.

Until then, he stays with me.

MelanieBye, Trouble.

JessieSee you tomorrow.

We have looked everywhere.

I'm calling the police.

[Whispering] Wait!

[horse whinnies]

Listen.

[horse nickers]

What am I gonna do?

Let them sleep.

I have a plan.

What's going on?

It's for Carole.

Ah. Farewell party.

How sweet.

CaroleWelcome, everyone.

As you've probably heard, my dad's brigade

has been redeployed, and I'll be leaving.

But I'm pleased to say that there's been a change of plans.

Thanks to Mrs. Reg, I will be the first live-in boarder

that she's ever had...

[cheering and applause]

Because I'll be staying there with Starlight

as a guest at Pine Hollow.

[cheering and applause]

You know I only wanted you to be safe.

I know.


Take care of Starlight... and yourself.

You too, Dad.
