Short filmTranscript
00:01Previously on Hope Valley 1874, I came to open a boarding house and that's what I intend to do.
00:06With all due respect, I think you're making a big mistake.
00:09Why do you stay?
00:10Because, uh, it turns out I'm darn good at running a trading post. Who'd have thought?
00:14I'll plow your field. And in exchange, you give me the lumber I need for the boarding house.
00:19Deal.
00:20You gotta wonder what brought them out here, though, huh?
00:22Sure they got their reasons.
00:23There's no law out here.
00:25But I get the feeling you already knew that.
00:30Thanks for coming to help with the pillowcases.
00:33Do you think we have enough, Mama?
00:35I think we'll need a dozen once we start boarding.
00:37Okay. Then I'll keep making them after Jenny and I stuff these ones.
00:41It's been really sweet watching you and Jenny get so close.
00:44She's my best friend.
00:48Mama?
00:49Hmm.
00:51Do you think we'll ever have to leave here like we did in Chicago?
00:57No.
01:00This is our home.
01:04I'm afraid to feel too happy if we may have to go.
01:10I know.
01:11You know, this year's been so hard for you.
01:13It's scary.
01:14But it was all worth it because you're safe.
01:18It's alright to be happy.
01:20Let's feel that way together then.
01:22What?
01:29Just take him for a little walk in there, alright?
01:31Okay.
01:36That one's got a strong will.
01:37Gonna take a while to break him.
01:39I just gotta get him to trust me first.
01:43Whoa.
01:47I'm going to go find Jenny.
01:49Alright, I'll be back for you soon.
01:50I'm ready.
01:51He's beautiful.
01:52And feisty, but the good ones are worth the time.
01:56Hmm. How's the leg Nash?
01:59I can feel it healing. You're better any day now.
02:02Listen, take it easy. You're still off it for a while.
02:07Well, I haven't seen you around here for a while.
02:09I've been at the boarding house fixing up the walls and patching up the roof.
02:13Looks like everything's working out just the way you want so far.
02:16It is.
02:18Do you still have doubts?
02:19About you opening? No.
02:21About what happens after?
02:24We'll see.
02:25We shall see.
02:28We shall.
02:31But the good news is,
02:32you did such a good job plowing my field that
02:35the boarding house doesn't work out.
02:37Yet future is a ranch ant.
02:39Ha!
02:54You made the right choice, Hattie.
02:56The amount of gold and cash you must be handling these days,
02:58you need a secure place to keep it.
03:00Yeah, I wonder what my husband would have thought.
03:02You know, us with a real safe.
03:05Like we're some kind of big city bank.
03:08Mind you, Frank never knew about the gold brush.
03:11Hello.
03:12Ah, Becca.
03:14Oh, look at this.
03:16Yeah, it's something, isn't it?
03:17Yeah, Alexander here persuaded me that under my petticoats in my bottom door
03:21is an adequate protection for my valuables.
03:25Ah.
03:25Well, unfortunately, more gold means more criminals.
03:29Ah.
03:31Here goes nothing.
03:42Okay, the instructions say three turns right, two turns left, and one more turn right with these numbers.
03:51Ah.
03:53There. I feel better.
03:55Mrs. Clark.
03:56Hmm?
03:57Can I stop by later? I have something I'd like to ask you.

25:08Tom and Rebecca will bring them soon
25:11I just wish there was something more that we could do
25:16I'd be out there with him if it wasn't for this.
25:25Of course you would.
25:42Sarah!
25:45The trail's still clear.
25:49Jenny! Sam!
25:52Rebecca, listen.
25:54Listen, I just want to say I'm sorry that I didn't ask if they had permission from you two before
25:58they left.
26:03I'm worried about them, too.
26:09What is that? What is that? What is that?
26:18Jenny! Jenny, sweetie!
26:24Just wait. There's small footprints here.
26:29They change direction.
26:32Which way? Which way?
26:37What is it?
26:40Wolf tracks.
26:41How many of them?
26:44There's two.
26:45Sarah!
26:46Rebecca! Rebecca, wait! Don't run!
26:49Sarah!
26:51Rebecca!
26:52Rebecca! Slow down! Slow down!
26:53Sarah!
26:59Sarah!
27:16They're not down there.
27:18Look.
27:20There's those slide marks.
27:22There's those slide marks.
27:23Little clothes on the brush.
27:36Where is my daughter?
27:40I promised myself one thing that I would keep her safe.
27:44That nothing and no one could ever take her away from me.
27:48Who would take Sarah?
27:52Jim's parents.
27:54What?
27:59I thought if I put enough distance between us, she would be safe.
28:07She's still in danger and I just keep failing.
28:14Rebecca, we are going to find those kids.
28:18Come on.
28:27Is this working?
28:32How long is this gonna take?
28:34I've never done this with no expectation of a payday.
28:40Let's say there's two bits in it for you.
28:45Ma'am, you and me have different ideas of what a payday is.
28:49Hope you're not trying to extort this fine woman in front of a police officer.
28:53No, sir. We're just making conversation.
28:56Extortion or no?
28:57I will give you a dollar if you can open that.
29:00A dollar?
29:02Just for opening the safe?
29:21When did you learn to do that?
29:23When I read the instructions.
29:25You didn't memorize the combination?
29:27I didn't have time.
29:29I was busy.
29:31Oh.
29:35Maybe you could do it now.
29:39Why did you lock these in the safe?
29:42It was on the counter where anyone might have seen it,
29:44so I put it in the safest place I could think of.
29:46The safe.
29:49But I suggest we change the combination now as well.
29:53No offense.
29:54It's something taken.
29:59So, uh...
30:00Do I still get my dollar?
30:02No.
30:12I'm cold.
30:15Well, they could be at home meeting supper right now if it wasn't for you.
30:20I'm sorry.
30:23Hey.
30:24When Mom and I were traveling in the wagon,
30:26you know, I'd get scared sometimes.
30:27But she said, if we stayed calm and we were brave,
30:31then it turned out fine.
30:33Okay.
30:33We did it.
30:35We made it here, didn't we?
30:39Okay.
30:40I'm sorry.
30:43Maybe we should make a fire.
30:45We'll saw a pod do it once.
30:47Okay.
30:48Let's do that.
30:49Okay.
30:51I can't sit here and do nothing any longer.
30:55I can't ride, but I can drive a wagon.
30:59Nash.
31:00Don't try and stop me.
31:01Nash!
31:02I'm coming with you.
31:17This is how Pa showed me.
31:20Why won't it work?
31:26Here.
31:32I know you can do it.
31:33You're going to make us a nice fire.
31:36It's working.
31:39You did it!
31:42Nice!
31:48Okay.
31:50Yeah.
31:56Oh, Constable.
31:58Hey.
31:59You're not heading out this late, are you?
32:01Well, I'm expected in Union City.
32:03Thought I'd get a leap on it.
32:04Plus, there's moonlight, so...
32:07Hey, I'm really sorry about today.
32:09That's all right, Hattie.
32:10I'm happy to help.
32:12And, uh, please, tell Olivia that I said congratulations again, would you?
32:16Oh, for what?
32:18Oh.
32:19I guess she didn't tell you.
32:20The government selected a few of her sketches for their advertising.
32:23To attract settlers to the Northwest?
32:25Oh.
32:26That's quite the feather in her cap.
32:29Yeah.
32:29She's...
32:32A remarkable young woman.
32:37So creative.
32:38So many ideas.
32:41She's...
32:43You must be very proud.
32:45I...
32:46I...
32:46I couldn't be prouder.
32:48No.
32:50Night, Hattie.
32:51Good night.
33:20Ah!
33:32I'm scared.
33:34Me too.
33:37I know.
33:42Hey, if we sit closer, we'll be warmer.
33:44Okay.
33:46Okay.
33:47Come on.
33:48It's okay, guys.
33:49What if no one finds us?
34:06Jenny!
34:08Sam!
34:12Jenny!
34:14Sam!
34:20It's okay.
34:30The wolves.
34:32Okay.
34:35Help!
34:36Get out!
34:37Help!
34:38Go away!
34:39Leave us alone!
34:48Did you hear that?
34:54It's this way.
34:55Go.
34:56Go away.
34:57Help!
35:03Come here.
35:04Come here.
35:04Come here, okay?
35:08Sierra!
35:10Mama?
35:10Sierra!
35:11Mama?
35:12Sierra!
35:13Go on!
35:14Get out!
35:14Mama!
35:15Get out of here!
35:19Guys, come here.
35:20You're okay.
35:21Come here.
35:22Come here.
35:23It's okay.
35:24You're okay.
35:25You're safe.
35:28You're okay.
35:29Oh, no.
35:33You're okay.
35:35You're okay.
35:44Whoa, whoa, whoa.
35:47What's that?
35:50Is that them?
35:52Look.
35:53Whoa, whoa, whoa.
35:54Whoa.
35:55Mama!
35:57My babies!
36:00Mama!
36:03Papa!
36:05Papa!
36:06Oh, my boy.
36:08Come here, come here.
36:10Look at you.
36:11Are you okay?
36:13You okay?
36:14You're safe now, okay?
36:16You're safe now.
36:17Let's get out.
36:20Hmm.
36:27Here, a little cocoa to warm you up.
36:36Tastes good.
36:38Good.
36:40You sleep okay?
36:41You're pretty tuckered out.
36:43Yeah.
36:49Mama.
36:51When we were lost, I was scared, but I didn't tell Sam and Jenny.
36:56I told them what you said when we were in the wilderness about being brave.
37:01It's kind of you to be strong for your friends.
37:08Were you scared when we were on the trail?
37:12I was.
37:15And you acted brave?
37:18For me?
37:19That's my job.
37:21Be brave for both of us.
37:24Thank you, Mama.
37:37Should we put this in, too?
37:39Oh, yeah.
37:41That's a good idea.
37:52That's a good idea.
37:53Congratulations.
37:54Hmm?
37:55I hear people from all over are going to see your drawings.
37:58That's really something.
38:01Alexander told you?
38:02Yeah.
38:03I was going to tell you earlier, but you seemed really frustrated about the safe, so...
38:07That I was.
38:09I'm sorry.
38:10You always have this place running so smoothly, I just assumed that you had the combination memorized.
38:15No.
38:15You're right.
38:17I should have memorized it.
38:20And I know you were just trying to help.
38:29Olivia?
38:34You do not have to be more like me.
38:39You are absolutely perfect the way you are.
38:57You are so happy.
39:18Hi.
39:21Wow.
39:23Wow.
39:25It's really coming together.
39:27Um, she's...
39:29Oh.
39:31I was just coming by to make sure she's okay.
39:36She's resilient, but exhausted.
39:42How are you doing?
39:44I'm all right.
39:45I'm really grateful they're okay.
39:50Okay.
39:54Look, there's something I've been wanting to say.
39:58It's been weighing on me.
40:02I saw the telegram from Chicago when you first arrived.
40:09You were right to leave when you did.
40:14I wasn't poking about.
40:15I just happened to see it in your things.
40:19Who did you tell?
40:20No one.
40:23I swear.
40:26I figured if it's got you running, it's got to be pretty bad, and it's your business.
40:35It's Jim's parents.
40:39It never approved of me, and that's why they're trying to take Sarah.
40:44What right do they have?
40:46They don't, but they have money.
40:49And as my mother-in-law loved to remind me, money is power.
40:52When you can influence authorities, you can take what you want.
40:58That's why you don't trust the police.
41:01Which is why I don't trust the police.
41:05Then you wanted to get as far away as possible.
41:08So you bought a boarding house.
41:11Sight unseen.
41:12I just thought this far out west, nobody would find us.
41:17They would certainly give up.
41:20Apparently they haven't.
41:22Listen to me.
41:23You brought her across the frontier, and you kept her fed.
41:28Safe and warm, and you built home out of nothing.
41:34Nobody could do more to protect their child.
41:42I'm just trying to do my best for Sarah.
41:49If anyone comes here looking for you or Sarah,
41:54they're going to have to come through me first.
42:33I'm just trying to do my best for Sarah.
