13x10 - The Passing of the Torch

AMY: Previously on "Heartland" You're a good boy, Spartan.

I'm not gonna let you get hurt, I promise.

How many bribes does it take to get houses built on a wildlife corridor?

You say that one more time I'll sue you so fast you won't know what hit you.

It should only take a few days.

Snares'll take care most of them, anything left I'll deal with personally.

I don't need the details I just need this wildlife problem to disappear.

Consider it done.

I don't think I'm looking for the perfect horse.

I think I'm looking for the right horse.

I'm sorry did you say Kelowna?

Why would you need to go there?

Because that's where Quinn is.

- What?

- Yeah.

No, I'm just gonna- I'm coming to the ranch.

Yeah.

Okay.

I'll see you soon.

AMY: Remi!

Remi!

Here girl!

(DOOR OPENS, SHUTS)

No luck.

Remi wasn't here for her dinner last night either.

What if she's lost?

Oh, Remi can take care of herself.

She roams a bit, but well, she always comes back.

You're probably right, Grandpa, but I'm gonna go out and have another look.

- I'll come with you.

- Can I come too?

Honey, I really need to keep Lyndy occupied so I can finish this awful speech.

You're the best, Katie.

Thank you.

JACK: Remi!

AMY: Remi!

JACK: Remi!

- Here girl!

- Here, Remi!

(WHISTLING)

(FAINT WHIMPERS IN THE DISTANCE)

Grandpa!

I think I hear her.

(SPARTAN NICKERS)

Remi?

(LOW BARKING)

Grandpa!

She's stuck in a snare?

- It's okay.

- (WHIMPERING)

- Are you okay?

- Where did that come from?

Do you have something you can cut it with?

Yeah.

There has never been a snare on this property.

There we go.

There we go.

We'll get this loosened.

(WHIMPERING)

She's cut up pretty bad, Grandpa.

I better call Ty, I think she needs help.

It's okay.

We'll get you out of here Ty!

Yeah, yeah.

It's Jack.

Hey listen, can you make it back to the ranch?

And make it quick.

And at the break of day you sank into Your dream You dreamer Oh, oh, oh, oh You dreamer You dreamer (TRUCK RUMBLES)

AMY: Ty.

(REMI WHIMPERS)

Ty, do you have blanket or something, - we can put down for her?

- Yeah.

- Here.

- Oh thanks.

It's okay.

It's okay.

(WHIMPERING)

I got ya.

I got ya.

I got ya.

What happened?

Remi got caught in a snare.

Yeah.

It was on pretty tight.

She must have put up a heck of a struggle.

Oh!

Oh.

Easy.

Just, just keep her calm so I can have a look.

Well, she's lucky she got her front legs through.

Could have been a lot worse.

I'd like to get my hands on the idiot who set a snare on my fence line.

I was just talking to Bob at the reserve, they're popping up all over the place.

He's got three wounded wolfs and a dead coyote.

- All injured from snares.

- How can anyone set a trap that would risk hurting innocent animals?

Ah, never mind the how, I wanna know who?

JACK: You got a minute?

Well, I'm trying to help Lou do some canvassing, if she can get her act together.

But now she's worried about the dog.

Ah, the dog is gonna be fine.

But I need a word with you before you go.

- About what?

- About Mitch.

Heh.

Okay.

Listen, here is the thing.

I think I dug my heels in a little too hard when he asked us to buy that herd together.

And I've been losing sleep over it.

What you getting at, Jack?

Well, how would you feel if I asked Mitch to come back on as a partner?

Not good.

Why?

Well, because Mitch and Lou are in a serious relationship.

And this disagreement between us isn't making things any easier on them.

Now the three of us were in this together and it should've stayed that way.

Mitch is family.

(SCOFFS)

He's not family.

(TAILGATE SLAMS)

Where is he right now?

Hm?

Why isn't he here supporting Lou, helping her out?

(TIRES CRUNCH)

What kind of-what kind of- what kind of "serious relationship" is that?

I'm even starting to miss the general.

(FRUSTRATED SIGH)

- Okay.

You got everything?

- Yes.

I think so.

Um, can you just make sure the kids are okay?

Everything that's happened to Remi No, I know.

I know.

But they're just happy she's home.

Don't worry about a thing.

I got it.

- Thank you!

- Okay?

(DOOR OPENS)

PETER: Knock knock.

- Hey!

- Hey!

- What a surprise!

- PETER: (LAUGHS)

What are you doing here?

You know I was thinking about you and the election and everything, and I figured you could - use some more volunteers.

- Seriously?

- Yeah.

- That's amazing!

Well, here I am.

Put me to work.

Do you wanna come to town with me and my dad?

We got hundreds of hands to shake millions of leaflets to hand out.

Look at this - I'm in.

- All right?

- Like it?

- Wow.

You're such a brave girl, Remi.

Yeah.

Remi, yeah, she's lucky.

Okay.

I'm on my way now.

I'll see you soon.

Bye.

(BEEPS PHONE OFF)

Hey.

I gotta go help Scott out with a surge of clients right now.

Have you uh, have you heard from Luke or Andrea?

Ah no.

I haven't.

No news is good news, right?

- Yeah.

- Georgie tells me you're gonna try and gentle one of the wild horses.

Ah, maybe.

You know that Colt that I picked out for Sam.

Well, Spartan seems to approve of him so I thought I give it a try.

Oh, come on.

You'll have him following you around like a puppy in no time.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Speaking of - Hey!

Well, she's bounced back.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

I gotta go!

- Okay.

See ya.

Hey, if Georgie calls, don't mention Remi.

She's got enough on her mind.

(DOOR CREAKS OPEN AND SHUTS)

(FOOTSTEPS THUD)

Look what he did to this horse!

Mom, look out!

(HIGH-PITCHED WHINNY)

Have fun out there.

ANNOUNCER: Next up Taylor Kingstead.

Not too bad.

Thanks.

(EXHALES)

(EXHALES)

What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

How did you know I was gonna be here?

Um I-I saw online that you'd be competing.

And that you've got two other shows lined up.

That's good.

Yup, and then I go home.

You still quitting jumping to work for your dad?

Yeah.

Well, don't have much of a choice, do I?

I was lucky enough to convince him to let me do these last few shows.

So you wanted to talk?

- Yeah.

- Interesting.

Because I'm pretty sure you were quite clear the last time we spoke.

I've had some time to think.

It made me realize I needed to come here and explain why I said what I said.

You said you didn't understand why I quit jumping and there are a few reasons.

When I got home from Europe, Phoenix got really sick.

My coach practically ditched me.

And my parents were pressuring me to apply to university.

I mean I didn't know any of that.

I'm glad that you told me, but But the real reason I quit was because I missed you.

I missed competing with you, and riding with you, and laughing with you.

And when the program ended, I convinced myself that it would be easier to make a clean break.

But when I came home felt like a piece of me was missing.

And then, you showed up and I didn't know what to do.

I'd been trying so hard to get over you Hey.

Hey.

All right.

It's okay.

Uh I never should have just shown up like that.

No, that's-that's not what I mean.

You shouldn't be sorry that you showed up at Hudson.

I'm glad you did because you're right.

I'm I am terrified of getting hurt.

And when ever there's the slightest chance of losing something great, I leave first.

You asked me to give you a reason to stay.

So just just listen.

I want you to forget everything I said in Europe.

How I acted at grad.

I want you to forget everything because because the time I've spent with you has been the happiest I've ever been.

And you make me laugh.

And you call me on my crap.

And you see me for who I am.

And I think that I'm love with you.

And I hope that's enough of a reason.

(SNIFFLES)

Do you know how many times I wanted to hear you say that?

How many opportunities I gave you to say that?

ANNOUNCER: And the standings are; Jennifer Sarsa in third place.

Quinn McGregor takes second.

And Taylor Kingstead gets the first place!

(CROWD APPLAUDS)

Second place look at me, making my dad proud.

I'm sorry I should go get my ribbon.

- b*at ya.

- Heh.

Yeah.

(HORSE SNORTS)

Hey.

You be nice.

(HOOVES THUD IN THE FOLIAGE)

(PLAYFUL NICKERS)

Settle down.

(TACK JINGLES)

(HOOVES THUD, WHINNIES)

(NICKERS)

(CHUCKLES)

You're a good boy, Spartan.

Ho.

You're such a good teacher.

(SOFT SNORTS)

See you on Election Day.

Thanks a lot.

- Good talking to you, guys.

- MAN: See you later.

LOU: Wow.

Hey, thank you so much for coming with me today and for going door to door - just everything.

Of course.

It was my pleasure.

It's fun seeing you in action, amongst your people.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Seriously, great work.

Hey, everyone, good work today.

Um I don't wanna be too optimistic, but I could feel a tide turning.

People are starting to question J.

D's message.

Yeah, I'll keep my eyes open.

Thanks, Bob.

- Hey buddy.

- Hey.

You look like you could use a coffee.

Yes, thank you.

So you know that snare that Remi was caught in?

Yeah.

Well, people are finding them everywhere now.

- Especially along Gibson Creek.

- Gibson Creek?

That's J.

D's development?

And I was just talking to Bob, and he said the police are now involved.

They think all the snares are made by the same person.

I don't believe this.

J. D. practically admitted to me that he bribed his way into getting that development built, in spite of the wildlife corridor it disturbed.

And now this is happening?

That's it.

Whoa-whoa-whoa.

What are you doing?

I'm gonna talk to him.

Don't-don't go stirring up a bee's nest.

Okay?

Or let's-let me come with you then.

The last thing I want is for J. D. to think I need a man to protect me.

(FOOTSTEPS THUD)

(LOW HUM OF CHATTER, TRAFFIC RUMBLES)

(CAR DOOR SLAMS)

Do you need something?

A straight answer if that's even possible.

Well, it's kind of hard to give an answer when I don't know the question, Lou.

All right.

I think it's more than strange that the second that article came out about your development displacing wildlife, said wildlife has started turning up, injured or worse.

And not just wild animals, but innocent pets, - like our dog.

- Well, that's not a question.

I'm sure you know that the police are looking into this, right?

And they're bound to figure out who's behind it all.

If I thought you were any kind of a thr*at, I'd go directly to my lawyers and I'd have you sued for slander.

Which is exactly what I'll do if you continue down this path.

(TIRES SCREECH)

Quit while you're behind, Ms. Fleming.

Very funny.

Not a chance.

I told you.

Don't come to my office.

I want the rest of my money.

I think I've done enough.

You've done more than enough.

Get rid of the snares before the cops trace them back to you.

From now on, stick to the r*fle.

Don't mess this up.

You got it?

- Hey, you're okay.

- (NICKERS)

See?

It's not gonna hurt you.

It's okay.

It's okay.

(APPROACHING ENGINE RUMBLES)

- (NICKERS)

- You're fine.

(NERVOUS SNORTS)

Hey, what're you guys doing here?

Well, you missed dinner.

So we brought you a picnic.

And we wanted to see how you're doing with your new horse.

He's not my new horse not yet.

I'm working on it.

Come here.

Look.

See?

Spartan doesn't mind.

It's not gonna hurt you.

Come on, let's try again.

(SCARED WHINNY, HARD KICK)

No!

Spartan!

(PANICKED EXHALES)

Lyndy, stay here.

(SPARTAN NICKERS)

(NERVOUS EXHALES)

I I am so sorry.

I promised him I wouldn't let anything happen to him, - and look!

- Hey-hey-hey.

It's okay.

It's all right, Amy.

It's just a bruise.

That horse could have broken his leg!

He didn't, Amy.

I'm sorry, boy.

I'm so sorry.

- (PHONE CHIMES)

- Georgie's home.

Hm.

God, I still don't know how I feel about her taking that trip.

(SMALL LAUGH)

You only met Quinn for 15 minutes at Georgie's grad.

I've gotten to know him a little and I like him.

I hope it works out for them.

It's not easy, you know meeting the right person.

No, it isn't.

(SMIRKS)

(DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS)

- Hey.

- There she is!

You made it!

Dad!

Did I wake you, guys?

No, no, no.

We-we've been waiting for you.

Okay.

I'm just gonna grab something from the fridge there is nothing in the loft.

Okay.

How did it go?

Georgie?

How was the trip, honey?

(EMOTIONAL EXHALES)

LOU: Everything go okay?

Georgie?

(CRYING)

It's not gonna work I I messed everything up.

Okay.

(BEEPS PHONE OFF)

So I just talked to Adam.

Apparently his dad said the investigation is at a stand-still.

And they can't find anymore snares.

Like even the ones that were reported earlier were gone when the police showed up.

Oh, I don't believe this.

Werth iss gonna get away with it.

(APPROACHING ENGINE RUMBLES)

Oh, good Mitch is here.

He can help.

(REEL RATTLES)

- Hey!

- Hey.

You ah, you wanted to talk?

No.

I wanted to fish.

Another rod there, help yourself.

(PHONE CHIMES)

What?!

What?

What is it?

Mitch.

He's here with grandpa fishing.

Wha we're all in here working and he's literally gone fishing?!

Yeah.

I, I don't know what's going on.

I do.

Jack's trying to talk him back into the business.

- Without me.

- Dad!

You know, I always find that fishing is about the best way to clear your mind.

You can think about what's important.

You can consider the past and plan for the future.

What are you getting at there, Jack?

Well, I'm hoping we'll be able to smooth over this cattle business situation.

And settle our issues.

We don't have any issues.

But I gotta tell you, I'm doing pretty good on my own.

Yeah.

I knew you would.

But I'm kinda thinking that we'd stronger together.

Seriously, they-they wanna hush this out right now?!

In the middle of my campaign!

I'm putting an end to this.

They need a neutral mediation, I think.

Peter!

Don't get involved in that!

Don't worry.

I'll be Switzerland!

TIM: Ah-ha!

My worst nightmare.

Right here.

I knew it.

I knew it.

You're trying to sneak Jack away, make a deal behind my back, huh?

Jack invited me.

- Really?

- (EXHALES)

Another traitor in my midst, speaking of betrayal, what about the way you're treating Lou, huh?

She needs your help, you're not helping.

Everybody knows this election is important to her.

Even Peter is here to help her.

And you know what, he is ready, willing, and able, buddy!

- Peter's here?

- Yep.

- (NICKERS)

- (CLUCKS HER TONGUE)

- Come on.

Hey!

- (NICKERS)

Come on, get in the trailer.

Hey.

(IRRITATED GRUNT)

Get in there, you.

(CLUCKS HER TONGUE)

(HOOVES THUD IN THE FOLIAGE)

Let's go.

It'll be okay.

(CLUCKS HER TONGUE)

Ha!

Ha!

Ha!

(AMY EXHALES)

(NICKERS)

(ENGINE RUMBLES)

(DOOR OPENS, SHUTS)

(FRUSTRATED EXHALE)

Hey.

Hey, what's going on?

I just thought I would bring him to Heartland.

He might be less distracted there if he can't see the herd.

It's not going well.

- Well, let me give you a hand.

- Thanks.

(NERVOUS WHINNY)

- (CLUCKS HER TONGUE)

- Hup!

Hup!

- Hup!

- Oh no!

Ty!

The gate.

(AMY SHOUTS)

Go!

Fine just go!

Get out of here!

Amy?

What's going on?

I can go get him you know.

No.

Just let him go!

It's for the best.

I don't want him anyway!

(HORSE WHINNIES IN THE DISTANCE)

You know what, Tim, doesn't matter anyways.

I don't wanna be in business with somebody like you.

- Okay.

You know - You don't-you don't wanna do that.

No insults just Okay.

Please, would you all just listen Pete, stay out of this one.

Okay?

I would love to stay out of it, but here is the thing; these guys gave you the opportunity to begin with.

Right?

So turning your back on them now, it's a little low Mitch.

So you should rethink it.

TIM: That's the truth.

I don't think this is any of your business.

Okay, let's leave Peter out of this.

You know what is my business?

Lou.

You have any idea how hard she's been working?

What she's up against?

You don't.

You know why?

- Because you're around, are you?

- What about you?

- What about me?

- You show up when ever you want, interfering in our relationship, - cozying up next to Lou - What?!

Even though you've been divorced for years?

Okay.

This is not the place to talk about this.

Lou and I have a fantastic relationship.

Do you wanna know why?

Because we work hard at it!

I know that's probably a foreign concept to you, right?

Because whenever things get challenging, you disappear!

- Don't you, Mitch?

- Yeah.

Did I leave my wife and kids and go to Vancouver?

'Scuse me?

I'm there for her when she needs me.

That's more than I can say about you.

LOU: Okay!

Enough!

Obviously none of you know what I need.

Because if you did, you'd know that all I want right now is a family that I can depend on during the scariest and most nerve-wracking time of my entire life!

- You're right.

- Listen, I'm sorry - No, don't!

- Whoa!

Oh!

(EXHALES)

She's got my vote.

Are you sure you're okay?

I don't know.

Why don't you talk me through this?

Okay?


Is it Luke leaving?

Is that why you're upset?

Of course I'm upset about Luke, but And Remi getting hurt didn't help either.

No, it's it's not just that, Ty.

Um I guess I'm afraid.

Of what?

I'm afraid I'm gonna lose Spartan.

He is the last link I have with my mom.

And every time I look at him I I can see her Ty, she d*ed, saving him.

And now, he's getting old and I have to face that.

And I just I don't know what I'm gonna do without him?

I don't wanna say goodbye to him?

You're not gonna have to, Amy.

Spartan's ligament has healed.

We're gonna treat his arthritis.

He's gonna be around or a long, long time.

You're not gonna have to say goodbye anytime soon, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

(SNIFFLES)

You know I am sad that Luke had to go.

Well, that's the way it always had to be.

We have our own little family.

I love our little family.

I do.

He'll come visit.

Especially when we get this house built.

- I can't wait - I know, me too.

See Lyndy run around and play here.

Yeah, have her own little horse, riding over these hills.

She's so lucky to grow up here.

Yeah.

We all are.

Hm.

Speaking of the house.

I gotta get some clean up done before Lee arrives tomorrow.

Otherwise this moving in thing isn't gonna happen.

Okay.

Thanks for chatting.

(HORSE WHINNIES IN THE DISTANCE)

- I love you.

- I love you too.

You can have a meltdown with me anytime.

Okay?

You just let me know.

- (BOTH LAUGH)

Okay.

My wife has been sh*t!

Please.

It's okay, Amy.

It's okay.

It's okay.

They got you.

They got you.

You're okay now.

You're okay.

- You're okay.

- (PAINED GRUNT)

Ugh!

Please.

Stop!

It's okay.

That's my wife!

- Sir!

- Let me go!

Please let me go!

- Sir, you're bleeding!

- That's my wife's blood.

- No.

You've been sh*t.

- What?

I need assistance!

I need help!

Why haven't we heard anything yet?

Well Dad and grandpa said they'd call, okay?

(PHONE RINGS)

- (BEEPS PHONE ON)

- Jack how are they?

Okay.

Yeah.

They are?!

They're both gonna be okay.

Yeah.

Okay.

Your dad wants to talk to you.

Okay, I will.

- All right you're on speaker.

- TIM: Now listen, everyone!

Amy and Ty are gonna be fine.

You gotta make Lou go to her final rally.

Dad!

I'm not going, I can't give that speech today!

TIM: The last thing Amy and Ty want is to ruin your campaign.

Remember why you're running, Lou.

Don't give up now.

Are you ready to go?

- Yeah Dad, I'm ready.

- (LISA CHUCKLES)

Just give her five minutes, Tim.

(BEEPS PHONE OFF)

(CALMING EXHALE)

(DOOR OPENS)

Dad.

Jack stayed with Ty and Amy.

So what happened?

They got caught in the cross fire between a poacher and a wolf.

Why was somebody hunting on their property?

I-I don't know.

I don't know.

Ty didn't see the guy, but he saw a white truck - pull out of there.

- Wait, wait a white truck?

- Did it have a red topper?

- Apparently.

Lou?

I-just wait I have to make a phone call.

(DIALING BEEPS)

Yes, hello.

May I please speak to Jim Parker, the chief of police Uh, excuse me folks.

Hi.

I'm Tim Fleming, I'm Lou's father, but I'm also her campaign manager.

Uh she's just gotta make a quick phone call.

- Okay.

Thank you.

- TIM: You may remember me from the Hudson Rodeo association election.

No?

- Thanks, Dad.

- Okay.

- I have a speech to make.

- Okay.

Hi everyone.

I am so glad to have you all here with me, and with my family.

It means a lot.

The message of my campaign has always been about integrity.

It's been about moving forward with the kind of progress that honours the values and the traditions of our town.

It's been about protecting what's important to us and to our families.

To say that I'm from a big family would be an understatement.

I'm a granddaughter, a daughter, a mother, a sister, an ex-wife.

My family is big, and it is definitely not free from conflict.

But I am nothing if not loyal to my family.

And that family includes this town.

And when someone threatens that family, tries to hurt them, tries to take them down, you can bet that I will be there and ready to fight.

CROWD: Yeah.

J. D. Werth is that thr*at to my family, and to my town.

And I promise that I will do my best to defend us to the end.

So thank you for being here with me today, and for helping me to realize that this is not only what I want to do, but what I have to do.

(APPLAUSE)

I-I'm okay.

Come sit down.

Here is a little pie, for our hero.

- Thank you, Lisa.

- The super hero!

- I'm not a hero, guys.

- Yes, you are.

You heard what the doctor said.

If you hadn't jumped in front of that b*llet it would've hit me straight on.

You saved Amy's life, Ty.

Don't doubt that.

So uh, the police made any progress or?

We haven't heard anything.

I wish I would have seen the guy's face.

But I did see the license plate.

So hopefully something will come of that.

I'm sure it will.

- Early days.

Early days.

- Okay.

I think someone's here to see you.

(DOOR SHUTS)

Sorry to drop in like this again.

What are you doing here?

Well, the question I've been asking is why did you leave?

You just disappeared on me in Kelowna.

I didn't seem like you wanted me there.

And neither did your friend.

What friend?

The girl that you were with.

Wait?

Her?

No.

No.

She-she's just a friend.

Like, like an actual friend.

She's not somebody that I'm seeing.

She's not you.

What?

I-I realized a lot of things when I left Hudson.

Mainly, that I didn't have a plan.

I was just doing what my parents wanted me to do, not, not what I wanted to do.

When I was working with you, I realized how much I loved coaching.

It might be the thing I actually want to do.

That's great, but is that why you came here?

To tell me that?

No.

I came here to tell you that Hillhurst stables offered me a coaching job here in Hudson.

And I'm gonna take it.

But only if you want me to.

Just give me a reason to stay and I will.

Well, look who it is.

What you doing outside?

Come on in golden boy.

Golden boy?

- Just go with it.

- (CHUCKLES)

Okay.

(LOW HUM OF CHATTER)

Okay.

Final results should be in.

They got Werth.

Apparently his henchman, Grady, squealed.

- That's great news.

- Yeah.

I mean, he's saying that he was just aiming at a wolf.

And he didn't even see Amy and Ty.

But you know, who knows?

Right?

(SIGHS)

What's up?

You didn't say girlfriend.

What?

In your speech the other night, you know, you you said mother, daughter, granddaughter, you said ex-wife didn't say girlfriend.

I'm sure I did?

Didn't I?

I don't even remember what I said I-I mean, that speech was totally made-up on the spot.

Listen, I gotta be honest with you, I just, I feel lately like I am on the outside looking in.

Well, you kind of have been.

You know, I mean, Peter wasn't far off when he called you out down at the pond Well, you know what, maybe Peter is the only support you need right now.

And that's fine.

That's great.

I think that's really great.

You should go for it.

At least until you figure out what it is that you really want.

Maybe you need to figure that out as well.
