00:06:36Oh, you're the one who's the one who's the one who's the one.
00:06:44are doing if you need a hand or if you have any questions or anything I'm down
00:06:49the road yeah about a mile yeah I I said that oh you know what actually do you
00:06:59have a question about how much do you know about horse feed I got about six
00:07:03of them but can't get enough of the stuff perfect thank you so mine haven't
00:07:06been worked a lot lately and so I was thinking they couldn't handle such rich
00:07:10feed I ordered something new from high water tack and feed but they sent the
00:07:14wrong stuff and I just didn't know it's got a lot of corn here's probably better
00:07:18suited for roughage right I was thinking high fiber low sugar maybe a balance
00:07:22repellent you certainly know your stuff well I grew up on my grandparents ranch
00:07:28in Arizona and they would bring me to the giddy-up gala every summer when I was a
00:07:32kid I brought my daughter here we love it so I'll just call the high water and
00:07:37switch it probably should go in person why's that it's a new owner he's a
00:07:42little more hat than he is cattle he's learning the ropes he messed up my
00:07:47supply of salt slicks I'm still waiting on the right ones okay thank you I'm

00:08:36facade on the outside but when you go in it's brand new

00:08:44bringing back our beloved tradition yep shooting this it had some of the best
00:08:48times of my life on this very land yeah I feel the same way and I think a lot of
00:08:51other people do too because I have so many reservations to stay here for the gala
00:08:55that's great really um the barn definitely passes but the house and the stables the last owners never
00:09:02got around to retrofitting anything else oh here is an inspection checklist that I'll cross off before

00:14:24what you want when you want it well I don't want to be in that race I never did
00:14:28no you were always the finish line hope
00:14:33listen uh hi welcome in
00:14:38I sold my share of pinnacle finance to Simone I took a road trip through New Mexico I stumbled upon
00:14:44this tack and feed shop that was for sale and I thought I've arrived you are looking at Ruedozo's
00:14:49newest citizen Hope that's crazy don't you think don't you realize that that's just totally
00:14:55reckless and completely romantic is that what you're gonna say oh you were always the one hope
00:15:03and look at this it's like they brought us together or something the timings right we're both here
00:15:07timing you always loved a sequel you know we haven't even exchanged Christmas cards in a decade
00:15:15oh but you do love big romantic gestures right and this is pretty big so you thought you'd just buy
00:15:19this place move to Ruedozo and then I'd come in one day and what throw myself in your arms like
00:15:25at the end of dirty dancing uh wait so is that is that a no yes I mean no I
00:15:31mean do you know what I
00:15:32mean okay the point is that's why it didn't work the first time and that's why it didn't work the
00:15:38second time when we tried the long distance thing and that's why it wouldn't work now because there's
00:15:42never any communication with you okay I mean I could I do need to order 250 pound bags of the
00:15:49meadow mix horse feed 250 of meadow mix you got it thank you

00:16:48Ugh, I'm sorry.
00:16:51I know.
00:16:53I know, but after you two broke up,
00:16:56he would not stop asking about you.
00:16:58He asked about me?
00:17:00All the time.
00:17:01Is he wearing the cowboy boots?
00:17:03And the hat?
00:17:04And a buckle?
00:17:05And his jeans are too tight.
00:17:07He's still in love with you.
00:17:09He always has been.
00:17:11Don't you wonder what could have been?
00:17:12If you two would stay together?
00:17:14No.
00:17:15No, I don't.
00:17:16Because I know exactly what would have happened.
00:17:17It would have been a mess.
00:17:18And look, here we are now, in a mess.
00:17:21All right, I have a million things to do for the Giddy Up Gala,
00:17:24and I should get started.
00:17:25No, I can come early and help.

00:18:15OK.
00:18:16Give it back.
00:18:17I'm going to get out of here.
00:18:20I'm going to try to get out of here.
00:18:24Oh, boy.

00:18:56Hi.
00:18:57You want to try a chokecherry?
00:19:00No.
00:19:01Okay.
00:19:02I thought you might like it.
00:19:08Well, you guys enjoy your graze.
00:19:10I've got work to do.
00:19:16I woke up to the setback
00:19:19Time to figure out what's good for me
00:19:21Cause when I look at my reflection
00:19:24I gotta know where I like what I see
00:19:27You were nothing but a setback
00:19:29Should've known better take a shot
00:19:30What's this, a command post?
00:19:32Hey, this is private property.
00:19:34Sir, I brought your feed, ma'am.
00:19:36Same day delivery?
00:19:37Is that a new service the High Water is offering?
00:19:39Yeah, yeah, just for our VIP clients, so.
00:19:42Besides, I didn't want you to hurt yourself
00:19:43trying to move this 250-pound barrel of feed.
00:19:46I ordered 250-pound bags.
00:19:49Yeah, I know.
00:19:50Two...
00:19:51Oh my gosh, 250.
00:19:53That is the difference between hearing and listening.
00:19:56No, that's actually what you call an honest mistake.
00:19:58That's what that is.
00:19:59What's going on here?
00:20:00A lot of paperwork, huh?
00:20:02I know how you love that.
00:20:03You want a hand or something?
00:20:04No.
00:20:05I am happy to be doing this and I don't need help.
00:20:08Okay.
00:20:08Not that you'd ask if you did, right?
00:20:11Ruedoso is a special place to me.
00:20:13I came here for a fresh start.
00:20:15And now you're here.
00:20:16Bringing back what we thought we'd lost?
00:20:20Okay, okay, I'm just kidding.
00:20:22Hey, I will be back with the proper allotment of feed, okay?
00:20:25No!
00:20:26Don't come back!
00:20:26You don't have to deliver it!
00:20:27I want to, though.
00:20:28I mean, if you... if you want me to.
00:20:33Okay.
00:20:34I'm going.
00:20:35Can I just say that this is great, though?
00:20:37You're great.
00:20:37You look great.
00:20:39Ranch life suits you.
00:20:40It really does.
00:20:41It suits me, too, right?
00:20:42Probably that's what you were thinking, but you just weren't looking at me.
00:20:45Right?
00:20:46There she is.
00:20:47Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:20:49Woo!
00:20:50I'll be back.
00:20:53Help me.
00:21:10Everything tastes better when you grow it yourself.
00:21:13Ha!
00:21:14Yeah, I think that's true.
00:21:16Hello.
00:21:17Um, I'm getting to work on planning a bunch of stuff, but I already have choke cherries growing in the
00:21:22pasture.
00:21:23My favorite.
00:21:24Mine, too.
00:21:24Eventually, I hope I have enough to feed everyone on my ranch.
00:21:27That's fantastic.
00:21:29Hi.
00:21:30I'm, uh, I'm Hope.
00:21:31Hi, Hope.
00:21:32It's so nice to finally meet you in real life.
00:21:36I'm Mayor Winona.
00:21:37Oh, you're the mayor?
00:21:38Yeah.
00:21:39Wow, hi.
00:21:40Thank you so much for your very welcoming emails.
00:21:42Of course.
00:21:43It's always exciting to have a new resident, but the one that's going to bring back the biggest party of
00:21:47the year, I am thrilled.
00:21:50Me, too.
00:21:50So, I heard our inspector made his way over to you.
00:21:55Wow.
00:21:55You already heard about that.
00:21:56Small town where it gets around.
00:21:58Plus, you know, Dave's desk is right next to mine.
00:22:01Of course.
00:22:02Of course.
00:22:02Well, don't worry.
00:22:03I have it all planned out.
00:22:04I have a to-do list charted so that I can get everything up to code and pass the inspection.
00:22:08You are organized.
00:22:11It comes from working in PR for a long time.
00:22:13Well, I hate to add to your to-do list, but, um, unfortunately, I have to.
00:22:18Let's see.
00:22:18Event permit, food and beverage license, regulatory insurance for accommodation, and zoning permits.
00:22:24Oh.
00:22:24Just, you know.
00:22:26All that for a couple of hayrides and a bonfire?
00:22:28The Giddy Up Gala is going to attract everyone from Rui Doso and beyond.
00:22:33It's been ten years since we had one, and we all have such amazing memories of it.
00:22:38Yeah.
00:22:38Yeah.
00:22:39Well, I'm hoping this is the best one yet.
00:22:40And it will be.
00:22:41And I'm sure you have plenty of help.
00:22:43I mean, I heard your ex-husband just bought the high water.
00:22:47Is that right here?
00:22:48Word does travel past.
00:22:49Yeah.
00:22:50Um, he is my ex, but we were never married.
00:22:53Don't you worry.
00:22:54I don't need help.
00:22:55I can handle it.
00:22:56Great.
00:22:57Thank you so much.
00:22:58You bet.
00:22:59Have a great day.
00:23:00You too.

00:30:22Look at that. Okay. Look at that. I did it!
00:30:30How did you do that? Okay. Okay. I think you need your own name. You know, you're small and mighty,
00:30:38but you're very good at magically appearing out of nowhere.
00:30:44You know, you're an expert at escape. You're Houdini. That's perfect.
00:30:50Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:31:00Oh, my God.
00:31:30Oh, my God.
00:32:02Oh, my God.
00:32:05Oh, my God.
00:32:18Oh, my God.
00:32:21Oh, my God.
00:32:22Oh, my God.
00:32:25Oh, my God.
00:32:27Oh, my God.
00:32:28I've got, like, two exams next week and three more after that.
00:32:32Okay.
00:32:33So, what do you want to do?
00:32:35Like, find a tutor?
00:32:36No.
00:32:37I'll be fine.
00:32:39You can talk to me, Max.
00:32:40Just taking all these extra classes was a lot a lot more work than I thought it was gonna be
00:32:44hey
00:32:45You got this okay, and and I'm here for you. Whatever you need. I'll be fine. I'm just
00:32:53having a moment
00:32:56What are diamonds made of?
00:32:59coal
00:33:01Maggie
00:33:03Pressure
00:33:05That's right. You can only take one test at a time
00:33:07You can work with a tutor all the way. Yeah, but I can't exactly bring the tutor into the exam
00:33:12room with me mom
00:33:13I know that but you could work with someone all the way up until the last minute, right?
00:33:19Listen, don't be afraid to ask for help. I'm okay. I think I've got it, but thanks
00:33:26Probably get back to my books. All right. Well, I love you very much, and I can't wait to see
00:33:31you next weekend
00:33:34Yeah
00:33:35Love you
00:33:44All right
00:33:46I guess we should get to it
00:33:49Okay
00:33:51No
00:33:52Ranger come on. Come on. We're gonna go out and get some grass. Oh
00:33:58I'm sorry
00:34:00Okay, you hold on and and we'll go in a second. Okay, you just stay right here
00:34:10You don't have to just come out whenever you're ready
00:34:19Come on, Jackie
00:34:20Come on, Jackie. Let's go
00:34:44Okay, come on, you
00:34:52Oh, oh, oh, oh
00:34:55Oh
00:34:56Oh
00:34:57Oh
00:34:58Oh
00:35:06What's the day and now
00:35:11I've been trying to avoid run-ins with Jack.
00:35:15No better place than out here.
00:35:17I want to be alone.
00:35:18Truth is, every time I try to leave,
00:35:20ranch just pulls me back in.
00:35:23It's coming together, though, right?
00:35:25Yeah, yeah.
00:35:26It's not falling apart at the seams.
00:35:31I mean, there's a lot I've been working on.
00:35:35I did reinforce the beams in the barn,
00:35:37cleared out some spots for parking spaces out front,
00:35:40I laid out the solar lights for the pathway,
00:35:42I hired the caterer.
00:35:44All this while running a ranch.
00:35:47Some real cowboy stuff.
00:35:49It's less than a third of my to-do list.
00:35:51I wish I could tell you it gets easier.
00:35:55Every night at 8 o'clock,
00:35:56I am totally fast asleep.
00:35:58Exhausted.
00:36:00But I couldn't love it more.
00:36:03But sometimes it's nice to have a break.
00:36:05Right?
00:36:07What about a trail ride?
00:36:08You want to come with me?
00:36:09Show me the lay of the land.
00:36:10You in?
00:36:12Absolutely.
00:36:14I'll get the horses.
00:36:21Trail gets narrow up here, but the view's worth it.
00:36:23You know, I've been on a few trail rides,
00:36:25I haven't seen you out.
00:36:26Calving season.
00:36:27Oh.
00:36:27Yeah, it's like an alarm clock that never clicks.
00:36:31Up before dawn, checking the herd,
00:36:34got to make sure the mamas are okay.
00:36:36Every once in a while, I got a poor calf at 2 a.m.
00:36:38Wow.
00:36:39And you do that all yourself?
00:36:40Just like you.
00:36:43I mean, it would be easier to have a partner.
00:36:46Yeah, I, uh, it's been a while since I've had a partner.
00:36:51I'm probably better with cows than I am crowds.
00:36:54I didn't mean that the way that it sounded.
00:36:56I'm happy with the way things are for me.
00:36:58I'm happy on my own.
00:36:59But it would be nice to share ice to you sometime.
00:37:02I'd like that.
00:37:13Wow.
00:37:15I bet you never get tired of this.
00:37:19I haven't yet.
00:37:27All right, ladies.
00:37:29Come on.
00:37:29Come on.
00:37:30Come on.
00:37:31Bedtime.
00:37:31Time for bed.
00:37:34Go on.
00:37:35Go on.
00:37:36You got this.
00:37:37You got this.
00:37:38Yes.
00:37:38Good job.
00:37:39Good job.
00:37:41Okay.
00:37:42And you, Houdini.
00:37:44Oh, good chicken.
00:38:04Oh, hey, buddy.
00:38:06Come on.
00:38:07Let's just be friends.
00:38:08Don't you think we could be friends?
00:38:09Come here.
00:38:10Come here.
00:38:11All right.
00:38:12All right.
00:38:12I'll just give it time.
00:38:16Not so easy when you're on the other side, huh?
00:38:24What?
00:38:27What's that?
00:38:28Come on, man.
00:38:32All right.
00:38:33Jack, what are you doing here?
00:38:34How are you doing?
00:38:36Oh, got something for you.
00:38:39I can't be bought.
00:38:41I didn't buy it.
00:38:42I made it.
00:38:44What?
00:38:46Wow.
00:38:47I don't know what to say.
00:38:48Yeah, well, I figure people are going to want to know they're in the right place when
00:38:50they show up next weekend, huh?
00:38:52It's beautiful.
00:38:58Doesn't mean we're getting back together.
00:39:00Doesn't mean we're not, though.
00:39:03You know, I don't have the energy for this right now.
00:39:05I just have to deal with the animals and get ready for the gala and go back out and fix
00:39:11the fence and the pasture.
00:39:12What?
00:39:12Again?
00:39:13Yeah.
00:39:13Again.
00:39:14All right.
00:39:15Well, I'll give you a hand.
00:39:16Let's go do it.
00:39:17I don't need your help.
00:39:18Yes, you do.
00:39:19You just don't want to ask for it.
00:39:21Oh, what?
00:39:21Is Tom helping you?
00:39:23No.
00:39:24He has his own ranch to take care of.
00:39:26I just, I have this under control.
00:39:28It's fine.
00:39:29Okay.
00:39:30Okay.
00:39:31I saw a big stack of paperwork by the front door.
00:39:33Is that under control, too?
00:39:34Now you're snooping?
00:39:35No.
00:39:35I showed up with the sign.
00:39:37I knocked on the front door, and I happened to notice it.
00:39:39That's all.
00:39:39Right.
00:39:40Oh, this was, that was taped to your gate, too.
00:39:46Property tax.
00:39:51Agricultural exemption?
00:39:52I got the same thing at Highwater.
00:39:54See, farmers, they'll defer the payments, but once the land transfers, they all come due,
00:39:59so.
00:39:59I didn't know this was a thing.
00:40:00Yeah, year after year, it can really add up, too.
00:40:03I can't come up with this kind of money in a month.
00:40:05Should have been a clause in the sales closing agreement.
00:40:07Did you?
00:40:08I didn't see it.
00:40:11There was a lot of paper.
00:40:13All right.
00:40:14Well, tell you what we're going to do, Hope.
00:40:15I'm going to go back to my...
00:40:16I don't need you to figure this out for me.
00:40:17I know.
00:40:17I'm just, just saying.
00:40:18Listen, there were plenty of times I did need your help, and you weren't around.
00:40:21Could have just called me.
00:40:22We had broken up.
00:40:23You moved to New York.
00:40:25I stayed in Denver.
00:40:26I can do it by myself.
00:40:27I don't need your help, and I definitely don't need you showing up here acting like you're
00:40:31saving me.
00:40:32I don't need saving.
00:40:34I know.
00:40:36I never said you did.
00:40:38Never.
00:40:45You know, sometimes you just got to back off, let them come to you, Hope.
00:40:50Talking about the horse.
00:41:10I don't know.
00:41:48How did you even get in here?
00:41:51You know what?
00:41:52I'm just too tired.
00:41:54Help yourself.
00:42:11What did I get myself into?
00:42:16Okay.
00:42:19Okay.
00:42:22Okay.
00:42:23Okay.
00:42:23Okay.
00:42:31Okay.
00:42:32Stables.
00:42:45Oh, good deal.
00:42:47Okay.
00:42:48Whew.
00:43:36Will this be all for you today?
00:43:38Yes, thank you.
00:43:41Her horses all got loose week one.
00:43:44Eight.
00:43:45All George Mueller's petunias.
00:43:46And we're trusting her with our county's most cherished tradition.
00:43:50I think it's better to do it all in the past.
00:43:52She's got maybe a winona as full of support.
00:43:54So, hopefully, she's got all the help she can get.
00:43:58She's gonna need it.
00:44:07All right.
00:44:09We're out of oat milk, so you get 2%.
00:44:13No problem.
00:44:23Do you have a plumbing issue or something I can help you with, ma'am?
00:44:27The water tank is fine.
00:44:28My livestock has water.
00:44:30It's just the house.
00:44:32It's a pump.
00:44:33Plumbing?
00:44:34Uh-huh.
00:44:34Pump.
00:44:35You might need to call in a professional for that, honestly.
00:44:39Plumber's charged by the hour.
00:44:41That just has Tom.
00:44:43Yeah, Tom to the rescue, that could work.
00:44:46Uh, no, it's just because he's my neighbor.
00:44:48No, 100%.
00:44:49Listen, I'm happy you have someone you can call for help.
00:44:51I truly am.
00:44:52Whatever you need, put it on her tab.
00:44:55Jark.
00:45:08Hey there.
00:45:09Hey.
00:45:10Well, that's all of them.
00:45:12Amazing.
00:45:13Thank you so much, man.
00:45:14I appreciate it.
00:45:15Well, if you want to thank me, you can come to the Tumbleweed Two-Step tonight.
00:45:18Oh, yeah?
00:45:18I need some newbies on the dance floor.
00:45:21Everybody else already knows all the steps.
00:45:22Okay.
00:45:24While you're at it, ask Hope.
00:45:28She needs a night out more than she knows.
00:45:32Is that right?
00:45:35Well, not with me she doesn't, I don't think.
00:45:39Well, maybe not now, but that doesn't mean never.
00:45:42You're in Ruby Doso.
00:45:43Things take time here.
00:45:45We got lots of it.
00:45:48At least while you're dancing, you can put it all down for the night.
00:45:52Okay.
00:45:53Is that right?
00:45:54Yeah.
00:45:55Okay.
00:45:56Thank you, Mara.
00:45:57You bet.
00:46:01Uh, Tom?
00:46:03Hey.
00:46:03How did you know I was having issues with the water?
00:46:06I ran into Jack in town.
00:46:07He got the blueprints to all your water stuff here.
00:46:10Said you're having trouble and asked me to drop them off to you.
00:46:14There you go.
00:46:15Oh.
00:46:15Your previous owners, they never did fix this thing, right?
00:46:19There's only so much that duct tape can do.
00:46:22Right.
00:46:23You don't mind me being out here, though, do you?
00:46:25No.
00:46:25No.
00:46:26Actually, it's great.
00:46:28If there's anything I can do to help, I will.
00:46:32No.
00:46:33Um, hey, I meant to ask you about the honky-tonk in town.
00:46:38Uh-huh.
00:46:38There's apparently, like, a two-step party today.
00:46:41Is it good?
00:46:42Yeah.
00:46:42It's only the best time to read those stuff.
00:46:44I'm going.
00:46:46Are you going to go?
00:46:47Well, only if I get this whole pump thing fixed.
00:46:51Well, I mean, it ties into my place, so if I get it fixed, it only helps the both of
00:46:56us.
00:46:58You are the best neighbor ever.
00:47:01Sure.
00:47:02But, um, I could probably use some help out here.
00:47:04Oh, yeah, of course.
00:47:06Uh, no, uh, you wouldn't happen to know anybody with some long, gangly arms that could help me out?
00:47:12Just one.
00:47:14Mind if I give Jack a call?
00:47:18No, but I'll do it.
00:47:20I'll call.
00:47:21Okay.
00:47:22Mm-hmm.
00:47:29High water, tack, and feed.
00:47:31We got what you need.
00:47:32Is that a new slogan?
00:47:33I like it.
00:47:35Yeah, I'm trying out a few different ones.
00:47:37High water, tack, and feed for your horse and your steed.
00:47:40We get it to you with speed.
00:47:45Listen, I just wanted to say thank you for the blueprints.
00:47:48Yeah, I thought, you know, they might be of assistance to you.
00:47:52Didn't want to interfere.
00:47:54You just wanted to help.
00:47:56You say that like it's a bad thing, Hope.
00:47:59Because, you know, I hate asking for help.
00:48:01I know, and I know where that comes from.
00:48:04But you're not that five-year-old girl making mac and cheese on her own anymore.
00:48:08Raised an amazing daughter on your own.
00:48:11You got it right, Hope.
00:48:12Just like you wanted to.
00:48:23But, uh, um, you know, actually I, uh, well, I did call because, um, I need to ask for your
00:48:33help.
00:48:35Oh.
00:48:37Listen, I know that that was probably tricky to say, but I just got to hear it one more time.
00:48:40What did you say?
00:48:44I need your help.
00:48:45Ah, oh boy.
00:48:46Just once more.
00:48:48No way.
00:48:49Now you're pushing it.
00:48:51Yes, I'm happy to help.
00:48:52I will be right over.
00:48:54Looking forward to it.
00:48:55And I got a new tool belt.
00:48:57I can't wait to break it in.
00:49:00I'm hanging up now.
00:49:01Okay.
00:49:01Hey, next time, just call my cell.
00:49:14Wait.
00:49:14No, that can't be right.
00:49:16Uh.
00:49:19Oh, no.
00:49:21Oh, no.
00:49:24I'm overbooked.
00:49:26Double booked.
00:49:29Uh, um, I have a problem with booking.
00:49:34Okay, okay, never mind.
00:49:36Speak to a representative.
00:49:38Forty-five minute wait.
00:49:40Oh, no.
00:49:41Okay.
00:49:42It's fine.
00:49:43Just wait.
00:49:44I'll just...
00:49:45Oh, I'll take the neighbor some flowers.
00:49:48That'll be perfect.
00:49:52What?
00:49:54Are you a desert mirage?
00:49:55It's not a mirage, best friend.
00:49:58Hi.
00:49:58Oh, I can't believe you're here.
00:50:00What?
00:50:00No flowers?
00:50:01Oh, yeah.
00:50:02Well, I'm still working on it.
00:50:03No, these are actually from my neighbor, Mr. Miller, because my horse got out of the pasture
00:50:07and trampled his garden.
00:50:08Oh, dear.
00:50:08Yeah, his name is Ranger.
00:50:10He's a little bit complicated.
00:50:12I'm not sure he likes me.
00:50:13But there is one person he loves, and you know who it is.
00:50:16Hmm.
00:50:18Did he call you and tell you I need to be rescued?
00:50:20Who?
00:50:20Ranger?
00:50:22No, no one told me to come.
00:50:24I just missed you.
00:50:25What?
00:50:26Do you need to be rescued?
00:50:27No, but actually Jack and Tom are fixing a water issue right now.
00:50:32Well, who's Tom?
00:50:33I have a lot to fill you in on.
00:50:36Come with me to the gardening.
00:50:38To the garden we go.
00:50:47I get it.
00:50:48No sirens, no horns.
00:50:50You can hear the birds.
00:50:52Yeah, it is really peaceful here.
00:50:55You can really hear yourself think.
00:50:59Which isn't always a good thing.
00:51:01No?
00:51:02How so?
00:51:03You know, it can sometimes be lonely.
00:51:06Well, you're an empty nester now.
00:51:08That's a big change.
00:51:09Yeah, yeah.
00:51:10Maybe that's it.
00:51:11Maggie's come into the Giddy Up Gala, though, yeah?
00:51:13She said she would.
00:51:14I spoke to her last week, and she's feeling a little overwhelmed at school.
00:51:18Of course, she won't ask for help.
00:51:21Now you know how we all feel.
00:51:23The Support the Morgan Women Support Club.
00:51:26I am not that bad.
00:51:30You don't have to prove anything to anyone.
00:51:32You're out here actually doing it.
00:51:34I know, but every time I patch up a leak, I feel like another one springs up right away.
00:51:39I'm like the Three Stooges.
00:51:40Only I am Larry, Moe, and Curly.
00:51:43Well, you got me, and Maggie, and Tom, whoever Tom is.
00:51:49You know, real strength comes from letting people in.
00:51:53Even Jack.
00:51:56It's not like I haven't thought about it.
00:51:58But Jack and I tried again, and then we hit the same wall.
00:52:02And instead of breaking through it, we break up again.
00:52:05It's been over a decade.
00:52:06You're both different now.
00:52:07I could have told him not to move to Rio Doso, that it was a bad idea, hopeless.
00:52:12But he was so convinced that moving here would win you back.
00:52:17And I was kind of hoping he could win you back too.
00:52:22Okay, well, I can't really think about my love life right now.
00:52:24You know, I have to focus on figuring out how to get this gala all sorted out.
00:52:29Making sure there's enough rooms, because, you know, I'm overbooked.
00:52:32Oh, well, I can stay with Jack.
00:52:34Oh, thanks.
00:52:34How'd that happen?
00:52:35I have no idea.
00:52:36The website glitched or something, and it double booked every room.
00:52:39If I knew who had made the reservation first, I could just cancel the other people, but...
00:52:43No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:44We'll figure it out.
00:52:45We got this.
00:52:48But for now, let's go apologize on ranger's behalf.
00:52:52Oh, I forgot about that.
00:52:55Let's do it.
00:53:04All right.
00:53:10What if we build out some extra accommodations?
00:53:13I mean, that's definitely part of my five-year plan, but I can't do it now.
00:53:17I don't have time or money.
00:53:20Oh, that's Houdini.
00:53:22Never mind her.
00:53:22She's just my executive assistant.
00:53:25Hey, Houdini.
00:53:26These numbers are not great.
00:53:28So, you're not drowning.
00:53:30You just don't have running water.
00:53:31Right.
00:53:32You know, I went over all of that with the realtor.
00:53:35Maybe I should have hired a lawyer, too, huh?
00:53:36Even the pros make mistakes.
00:53:39Okay, the deferred property taxes can be paid in installment, so no worries there.
00:53:43We just have to focus on the gala permits and licenses.
00:53:46Right.
00:53:47Okay, so I just have to fill out all these applications and then woo some signatures out of people.
00:53:51Pable-y stuff.
00:53:52My specialty.
00:53:56Who's that?
00:53:58That is Tom.
00:54:01Lori, what are you doing here?
00:54:04Hey, I'm Lori Bennett, Jack's sister, younger sister.
00:54:07I'm here for the gala this weekend.
00:54:09Tom Grayson.
00:54:10I'm Hope's neighbor.
00:54:11That's right.
00:54:11And my partner in plumbing.
00:54:13Neighbor.
00:54:14Convenient.
00:54:14Yeah.
00:54:15Hope, your gate's still askew.
00:54:17Oh, I thought I fixed it.
00:54:18Good news is, though, water's back on.
00:54:21Yeah, the pump rod had just slipped its collar, but it's nothing real.
00:54:25Elbow grease and teamwork couldn't fix.
00:54:27Amazing.
00:54:27Hey, you should turn on tap inside, just make sure it's running up here.
00:54:30Oh, yes.
00:54:31Yes, I will.
00:54:35It works.
00:54:36You're my hero.
00:54:38That's what I'm talking about.
00:54:39Hero, is that on your business card or just psychic?
00:54:42Okay.
00:54:43She's subtle, huh?
00:54:44Yeah, the charm ends the family.
00:54:50It's Maggie.
00:54:51Amazing.
00:54:52Hi, honey.
00:54:53Guess who's here.
00:54:54Hi.
00:54:55Auntie Lori.
00:54:56Hi, Max.
00:54:57Are you okay?
00:54:59I'm glad you're there this weekend, because I won't be.
00:55:03What?
00:55:03Honey, what are you talking about?
00:55:05There's just so much schoolwork, and I'm not used to being this behind before.
00:55:10Okay, well, just tell me what I can do to help.
00:55:12No, this is something I have to do on my own.
00:55:14Honey, you are never on your own.
00:55:16But don't worry about it, okay?
00:55:17There'll be a million fun weekends for us together on the ranch.
00:55:20You promise?
00:55:21I promise.
00:55:23And if I can do anything, please just know you can call me anytime, okay?
00:55:28I love you.
00:55:29I love you.
00:55:36Hey, everything okay?
00:55:37Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:55:38It's just Maggie's not coming to the giddy-up gala.
00:55:41She's got too much schoolwork.
00:55:42Oh, no.
00:55:43I'm sorry.
00:55:44You know, so much to do, so little time, right?
00:55:47Right.
00:55:49So, Laurie just asked Tom if she could go see his cattle.
00:55:54Of course she did.
00:55:57Hey, should we go fix your fence?
00:55:59Uh, yeah.
00:56:02Thanks.
00:56:02All right.
00:56:04You ready?
00:56:04No, I couldn't get a...
00:56:06Yeah, yeah, there.
00:56:07I got it.
00:56:08Wait, hold on.
00:56:09Just one more second.
00:56:09One more second.
00:56:11Wait, hold on.
00:56:12Hold on.
00:56:13Okay.
00:56:17Okay, you want to tighten that?
00:56:20Okay.
00:56:23Feels good to fix something, huh?
00:56:25Yeah.
00:56:26It's been a long time coming.
00:56:28Think it'll hold?
00:56:30I think it'll hold just fine.
00:56:36You know, I do realize that moving to your ex's new town
00:56:40and buying a business just to try to win her back
00:56:42would come off a little, uh, unhinged.
00:56:48But I'm for real about this, Hope.
00:56:50I am.
00:56:51I thought it through, and I think if you're willing to give us a second chance,
00:56:54we could, uh, we could have that forever kind of thing.
00:57:01No pressure, of course.
00:57:04You always made me laugh more than anyone else.
00:57:07Well, that's what I'm here for.
00:57:09You also drive me crazy more than anyone else.
00:57:11A little less of that, then, maybe.
00:57:17I know I pushed you away.
00:57:18But I didn't want to be the one to stand in your way of following your dreams.
00:57:22And then you never called.
00:57:25Well, you know, Lori always kept me in the loop about Maggie.
00:57:28She said you wanted no contact, so I didn't want to...
00:57:30Oh, it's true. I did tell her that.
00:57:33I was mad at you.
00:57:35And I was mad at me.
00:57:37And I just thought it would be easier to stay angry at you for ten years.
00:57:42And I was right.
00:57:44Ten years.
00:57:46Wow.
00:57:48Ten years, a city of eight million people,
00:57:50and I've never found anyone as beautiful or brave.
00:57:57Go on.
00:58:00As wonderful a mother,
00:58:02I never found someone who's a perfect partner for me as you.
00:58:09What if we fight?
00:58:11We will.
00:58:12We'll make up.
00:58:15What if we break?
00:58:16Then we'll fix it, right?
00:58:19Just like the fence.
00:58:33I just...
00:58:35I don't know if I'm ready.
00:58:40For this?
00:58:42For anything.
00:58:43For us.
00:58:46It feels right.
00:58:49I just don't know if it is.
00:58:51You know, we're not 25 anymore.
00:58:56You know what I mean?
00:58:58That I just...
00:58:59I'm scared.
00:58:59I'm scared of, uh...
00:59:01Of letting this matter...
00:59:03Again.
00:59:06You come back into my life like nothing ever happened, but it did.
00:59:10It did happen, and it...
00:59:13It makes me afraid...
00:59:15To trust this feeling.
00:59:19Hey.
00:59:21If you can't trust yourself...
00:59:24You can go ahead and trust me.
00:59:27I don't know if I can.
00:59:34Okay.
00:59:37Um, I gotta get back to the shop.
00:59:39Uh, the day's kind of getting away from me.
00:59:41Are you good here?
00:59:42Yeah.
00:59:43Jack.
00:59:43It's okay.
00:59:45Yeah.
00:59:46Okay.
00:59:47Jack.
00:59:48Jack!
01:00:05He's so pumped.
01:00:07He's so great, right?
01:00:08I mean...
01:00:10Tom said he was gonna beat him, so hopefully he's...
01:00:14He's here for the...
01:00:16Oh, oh, I think he's there.
01:00:17Jack, come on.
01:00:26Hi, Tom.
01:00:26Hi.
01:00:27Hi, y'all.
01:00:28Oh, Mayor, hi.
01:00:29Ladies, you look fabulous.
01:00:31Thanks.
01:00:32Oh, still need that paperwork.
01:00:34Right.
01:00:34Yes, I'm working on it.
01:00:36Well, you can get Jim's sign-off tonight.
01:00:37He's in a good mood.
01:00:39He only works half-days on Fridays.
01:00:41Laura, she's over there, but I wouldn't ask her at the two-step.
01:00:45Best to wait until she's in our office.
01:00:46Appreciate the advice.
01:00:48You bet.
01:00:49Hope, you gonna hang right here for a second for me, please?
01:00:52Sure.
01:00:53Can I have that?
01:00:55Thank you so much.
01:00:57Hey, everybody.
01:00:57Can I have your attention, please?
01:00:59Before we get this party started,
01:01:02we all know that our old barn was remodeled a few years ago,
01:01:06and it's been empty ever since.
01:01:08I want to introduce you to Hope,
01:01:11someone who's literally bringing back Hope to Rui Doso.
01:01:15Hope.
01:01:17Woo!
01:01:19Thank you so much.
01:01:20Well, howdy.
01:01:22And I want to thank all of you for being so welcoming.
01:01:25And I just have to say the Giddy Up Gala tradition
01:01:28is something that is so important to every single one of us.
01:01:32Woo-hoo!
01:01:34So I look forward to all of you coming down to Hope Ranch,
01:01:36and I can meet you all there in person.
01:01:41How much are tickets?
01:01:43Uh, they're free.
01:01:44I'm not charging, so I want everyone to come.
01:01:46Bring your family.
01:01:47Bring your friends.
01:01:48Come on down to Hope Ranch for the Giddy Up Gala.
01:01:52Woo!
01:01:54Look at that.
01:01:55All right, enough talk.
01:01:57Let's dance!
01:01:58Woo!
01:02:01Hey there.
01:02:02Wow, you look, uh, great.
01:02:05Should we just put our problems aside and kick up our heels?
01:02:08What do you say?
01:02:09Well, I didn't bring any heels.
01:02:11Oh, that's a shame.
01:02:12Oh, that's a shame.
01:02:21Five, six, seven, eight.
01:02:24Great fun!
01:02:25Woo!
01:02:29And back!
01:02:32Spin!
01:02:33Yeah!
01:02:36Great fun!
01:02:38Ha!
01:02:42You dance?
01:02:43Ah, sometimes.
01:02:46Well, we are tonight.
01:02:48Let's go!
01:02:52Hi!
01:02:54Hi!
01:03:01So, just right there, that one that's kind of red, is Antares, part of the scorpion.
01:03:08Okay, oh.
01:03:09Scorpion, huh?
01:03:10Mm-hmm.
01:03:11Yeah, that tracks.
01:03:12Oh!
01:03:13Oh!
01:03:14What?
01:03:15You have the hardest elbows ever, still.
01:03:18Yeah, yeah, I pride myself.
01:03:21I didn't know you could dance like that.
01:03:24Eh, see?
01:03:25There's a lot of stuff you don't know about me.
01:03:28I guess that's true now.
01:03:32Tell me about New York.
01:03:36Well, I'll tell you what New York doesn't have.
01:03:38It's guys like this.
01:03:40This is incredible.
01:03:41It really is.
01:03:43What else doesn't it have?
01:04:00Hi, Hope!
01:04:10Hi!
01:04:10Hi!
01:04:11Hi!
01:04:12Hi!
01:04:23Will you come to a gala?
01:04:24Oh!
01:04:25I hope you'll come to the giddy-up gala.
01:04:47Wow, you weren't kidding, Hope.
01:04:48This looks amazing.
01:04:50I know.
01:04:50When I saw the photos online, I realized this would be the perfect place to have the giddy-up
01:04:54gala.
01:04:55So is this where all the lucky cowboys get to take the pretty girls for a twirl, or...?
01:04:58Oh, well, let's test it out.
01:05:00Yeah.
01:05:00Oh, perfect.
01:05:01Is it good?
01:05:02Yeah.
01:05:05Come here.
01:05:06Oh, my God.
01:05:06Oh, my God.
01:05:07Come here.
01:05:13No.
01:05:13It's Maggie.
01:05:14She's the only one who can ping my phone like that.
01:05:16She's...
01:05:17I don't know.
01:05:17I heard it.
01:05:19Oh!
01:05:21Oh!
01:05:21She's here!
01:05:26It's so romantic.
01:05:28Just like the notebook.
01:05:29Did that one end with a happily ever after?
01:05:32Are you kidding?
01:05:34They got back together.
01:05:35That's like the happiest ever after.
01:05:39So, are you and Jack getting back together?
01:05:42Would you be okay if we did?
01:05:44Jack is the best.
01:05:45Even after you guys broke up, he still sent me a birthday card every single year.
01:05:50Wait, he did?
01:05:52Yeah.
01:05:53Auntie Lori would sneak it in with her card.
01:05:56Oh, she would, would she?
01:05:57Hmm.
01:05:58Yeah.
01:06:00I love Jack, even when he was gone.
01:06:03That love.
01:06:05You know, it doesn't just end.
01:06:11You're right about that.
01:06:13It doesn't.
01:06:15So, do you still love Jack?
01:06:18It's complicated.
01:06:20It doesn't have to be.
01:06:21When did you get so smart?
01:06:23In college.
01:06:26You're okay to be here with all your schoolwork and everything?
01:06:29Yeah, I joined a study group.
01:06:31Really?
01:06:32It's the weirdest thing.
01:06:34It's like, I help them and they help me.
01:06:38Right.
01:06:39That is how that works.
01:06:40Just because you can do everything by yourself, doesn't mean you have to.
01:06:47I never thought I'd hear you say that, Mom.
01:06:51Well, I guess we're both still learning.
01:06:53And there's one more thing.
01:06:54I think I've decided I want to become a veterinarian.
01:06:58You do?
01:06:59Yeah, and with animals out here, like horses, cattle, chickens.
01:07:05You'll be really good at that.
01:07:09You're okay staying here with me tonight?
01:07:11I had to give up the extra bedrooms for the guests since I overbooked.
01:07:14Yeah, of course, Mom.
01:07:15All right.
01:07:15I'll get ready for bed.
01:07:20Happy Giddy of Gala Eve.
01:07:21Happy Gala Eve.
01:07:22You too.
01:07:40Oh, nice to see you here this morning, Houdini.
01:07:43Now stay put.
01:07:49Go out there.
01:07:50Okay, it's your turn, Ranger.
01:07:54Yeah.
01:07:55Yeah.
01:07:55How are you feeling?
01:07:58Are you my friend today?
01:08:00Are we finally friends?
01:08:03Oh.
01:08:04Yeah.
01:08:20Go out there.
01:08:21Oh.
01:08:24Let's go.
01:08:55Oh, today's the day.
01:08:59I can't believe it.
01:09:05Morning.
01:09:12Oh, oh, great.
01:09:17Thank you so much.
01:09:18You know, you can take everything out to the back of the barn.
01:09:49Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:09:51Smells good in here.
01:09:52I thought you were the caterer.
01:09:54Uh-huh.
01:09:54Sorry to disappoint.
01:09:55No, it's good.
01:09:56These scones probably won't disappoint, though.
01:09:58Is this your Grandma Mary's famous recipe?
01:10:00Yes, it is, actually.
01:10:01But I was hoping to add fresh strawberries from my garden for the scones.
01:10:06But the deer ate my entire garden, so I have nothing homegrown to share with my guests.
01:10:10Mm-hmm.
01:10:11Those are better than I remember.
01:10:12Aw.
01:10:12I feel like a lot of things are kind of better than I remember them.
01:10:16Do you feel that way, too?
01:10:17Oh, I do feel...
01:10:17Inspector Dave.
01:10:18What?
01:10:19The inspector.
01:10:20He's here.
01:10:21That's his car.
01:10:22I have to...
01:10:24Okay.
01:10:25Hey, man.
01:10:26Just in case you want one.
01:10:31Taking one of these.
01:10:33Inspector, good morning.
01:10:34Wow, you're here early.
01:10:36I know you got the gala today, so I thought it'd be good to get this out of the way.
01:10:40Yeah, you're absolutely right.
01:10:41But I bet you didn't have time for breakfast.
01:10:43Would you like to try a scone?
01:10:44It's my grandmother's recipe.
01:10:46They look delicious, but I can't accept any goodies until after your inspection.
01:10:51Of course.
01:10:51Of course.
01:10:52I totally understand.
01:10:53Well, I'll be around if you have any questions.
01:10:55Just pretty much everywhere.
01:10:58Who are they?
01:11:01Guests?
01:11:04They're early.
01:11:07Well, hello.
01:11:09Welcome to Hope Ranch.
01:11:24That's good form, girl.
01:11:26Thanks.
01:11:27It feels so good to be back in the saddle.
01:11:30Everything good with the guests?
01:11:31Yeah.
01:11:32They were actually really happy to have the rooms inside the house.
01:11:34It's perfect.
01:11:35Amazing.
01:11:40Of course.
01:11:42Wow, wow, wow.
01:11:43Look who it is.
01:11:44Hi, Jack.
01:11:45Like riding a bike, huh?
01:11:46Never gets old.
01:11:47Well, looks good on you.
01:11:48Oh, I missed you.
01:11:49I missed you too, kid.
01:11:51It's good to see you.
01:11:52It's good to see you too.
01:11:53Hey, Hope.
01:11:58So, how'd we do?
01:11:58So, you added support to your structures, made pathways visible, provided the facilities and clear exits.
01:12:07But, but one of your livestock, a chicken, was roaming where she shouldn't.
01:12:14Who do you need?
01:12:16She was wandering near the proposed food prep station.
01:12:20That is a big no-no.
01:12:23However, I looked at your coop, and your fencing is secure.
01:12:26I don't know how she slipped out.
01:12:29She's a master of escape.
01:12:31Lucky for you, I admire a hen with guts.
01:12:36You passed, Toby.
01:12:38I'll see you tonight for the gala.
01:12:40Great.
01:12:41Keep that chicken in line.
01:12:42Yes, absolutely.
01:12:43She will be on lockdown.
01:12:45Thank you so, so much for making this happen.
01:12:47I really appreciate it.
01:12:51Oh, hi.
01:12:53Yeah, I can let you in the gate.
01:12:54Oh, stop.
01:12:55Wait, what?
01:12:58But the gala is tonight.
01:13:05Look at this.
01:13:07What do you think, Rooster?
01:13:08I'll be back in a minute.
01:13:09Okay.
01:13:12No, I mean, I understand.
01:13:13I'm just sorry that it was all spoiled.
01:13:17Thank you for letting me know.
01:13:22Hey, you left like Cinderella at midnight.
01:13:25Everything okay?
01:13:26No, no, it's not okay.
01:13:29All right.
01:13:30Can't be that bad.
01:13:31What's going on?
01:13:32Yes, it can.
01:13:33It is that bad.
01:13:33It's worse than that bad.
01:13:35It's bad.
01:13:37What happened?
01:13:39The caterer called and let me know that someone left the door to the walk-in refrigerator open
01:13:44and all of their food for tonight spoiled.
01:13:48What do you need?
01:13:49I need food.
01:13:51The entire town of Ruedosa is showing up here in three hours.
01:13:55And I have literally no food to serve them.
01:14:01Make some scrambled eggs, maybe.
01:14:04Time for your humor.
01:14:05Okay.
01:14:06Oh, yikes.
01:14:08I.
01:14:09Sorry, sorry, sorry.
01:14:10I got it.
01:14:11I got it.
01:14:11I got it.
01:14:11No, would you stop?
01:14:13Just stop.
01:14:14I can't even think with you standing here making jokes and telling me that it's all going to be
01:14:18okay if I just smile and ask for help because it's not.
01:14:23Okay.
01:14:25No problem.
01:14:26I'll leave you alone.
01:14:27I'm sorry.
01:14:33Sorry.
01:14:44Sorry.
01:14:47Sorry.
01:14:56Hello.
01:14:58Welcome to Hope Ranch.
01:14:59My ranch is your ranch.
01:15:00I'm so happy to have you as guests.
01:15:01I look forward to giving you a tour of the entire property.
01:15:05Mom, can I give the tour?
01:15:07Okay, yeah.
01:15:08This is my right-hand rancher and also my daughter.
01:15:10Hi, I'm Maggie. Nice to meet you.
01:15:12And she knows this place better than I do.
01:15:13Let's start with the stables.
01:15:14Sounds good. Thank you.
01:15:18This is a nightmare.
01:15:20Hey, what's up?
01:15:21Nothing. I just didn't want Maggie to catch on.
01:15:23To what?
01:15:25To...
01:15:26The caterer called and canceled.
01:15:29I have nothing to serve for the entire night.
01:15:32Okay, so what do you want to do?
01:15:35I don't know.
01:15:36I literally have no idea.
01:15:38I just know I'm going to be the talk of the town
01:15:39and Hope Ranch is going to be a spectacular fail.
01:15:42We'll figure something out.
01:15:44You always figure something out.
01:15:46It just has to be better than scrambled eggs.
01:15:48What?
01:15:48That was your brother's joke.
01:15:49He thought he was so funny and I chewed him out
01:15:51and now he's probably halfway back to New York by now.
01:15:53Well, he's not going anywhere this time, Hope.
01:15:55I made such big promises to everyone in Ruedoso
01:15:57and now I'm not going to be able to deliver.
01:15:59Delivery!
01:16:02Mayor Winona!
01:16:03The place looks great, Hope.
01:16:05Thanks.
01:16:06I thought I'd just drop these off
01:16:07before someone in my house eats them.
01:16:10Choked cherry pies, our favorite.
01:16:12Right, right.
01:16:13Of course, thank you.
01:16:14I really appreciate it.
01:16:15It's the least I can do.
01:16:16You're bringing back Ruedoso's Giddy Up Gala.
01:16:21Well, I better Giddy Up myself, but I'll be back.
01:16:24I can't wait.
01:16:25Mayor.
01:16:27Um, sorry.
01:16:28Uh, I just need to ask you for some help.
01:16:36Welcome to High Water Attack and Feed.
01:16:38Happy to help.
01:16:41Now that one doesn't even rhyme.
01:16:48Well, I guess not everything's a joke, is it?
01:16:53Hope, I'm sorry.
01:16:54I'm sorry, I...
01:16:56What?
01:16:56Why?
01:16:57I'm sorry.
01:16:58That's what I came here to tell you.
01:16:59I came here to apologize.
01:17:01No.
01:17:02My gosh, you don't.
01:17:03I...
01:17:03I was the one who was being an idiot,
01:17:05making jokes when you were busy in the kitchen.
01:17:07I should have just been listening to you.
01:17:08I was freaking out.
01:17:09And I overreacted.
01:17:11And I was turning into a Giddy Up Gala Godzilla.
01:17:17What?
01:17:19Yeah, which is a terrifying creature.
01:17:21You know what I mean?
01:17:21It's hard to say, too.
01:17:25You know, I ordered a photo booth for the party tonight.
01:17:29I was thinking maybe we could, um, you know,
01:17:32take a new photo for your wall.
01:17:34Yeah, I mean, we could, but, uh...
01:17:39You look real pretty in that one.
01:17:41I mean, maybe I'll just keep them both.
01:17:47Jack.
01:17:50I'm really happy in Redoso.
01:17:55I like it here.
01:17:58Do you think you could be happier?
01:18:01Yeah, you know, honestly, I...
01:18:03At first, I thought I'd miss the action
01:18:05and the noise of New York,
01:18:06but I like seeing the same faces
01:18:08come through that door every day,
01:18:10helping people out.
01:18:12It's...
01:18:12I'm happy.
01:18:14I am.
01:18:14I...
01:18:16I'd be a lot happier
01:18:17if you believe that I'm gonna stick around this time, Hope.
01:18:25If we do this,
01:18:27we have to promise
01:18:28that we're never gonna give up again.
01:18:31I promise I won't.
01:18:33Okay?
01:18:36Aren't you gonna kiss me, cowboy?
01:18:40I thought you'd never ask.
01:18:50Sorry about that.
01:18:52No problem.
01:18:54Actually, would you give me one second?
01:18:55No, no, no.
01:18:56I have to go.
01:18:57I have to get ready for the gala.
01:18:58I hope you're coming to the Giddy Up Gala tonight.
01:19:00I better see you there.
01:19:02You will.
01:19:07That has been a long time coming, sir.
01:19:09I'll tell you that for free.
01:19:27First time that I saw the girl,
01:19:29I knew that she changed my...
01:19:31Oh, hey, Quid.
01:19:32Hi.
01:19:33Bowdoin family, thank you so much for being here.
01:19:35It's good to see you.
01:19:36Thank you so much for coming, Gora.
01:19:38Oh, and look at this plate, too.
01:19:40I really appreciate that.
01:19:41What a great idea.
01:19:42It's bringing the community together
01:19:43in a whole new way.
01:19:45Guess what, Mom?
01:19:46The buffet table, it's filling up.
01:19:48Yes.
01:19:49Do you think there's space for another plate?
01:19:51We'll make some.
01:19:52Perfect.
01:19:53This place is rocking.
01:19:54Look at this.
01:19:55Hi, Jack.
01:19:56Hey, darling, how are you?
01:19:57Thanks to Hope's quick thinking,
01:19:58she saved the day.
01:19:59Oh, no, it was actually your choked cherry pie
01:20:01that gave me the idea for the potluck.
01:20:04And she hooked me up with an email
01:20:06to the Ruedoso database.
01:20:08Solved the catering issue
01:20:09and introduced Hope to Ruedoso's town folks.
01:20:13There you go.
01:20:14It turns out it's not such a big deal to ask for help.
01:20:17Okay.
01:20:17Something I've always said.
01:20:19I'll take your word for it.
01:20:20This is a family secret recipe.
01:20:22Coming in hot.
01:20:22Hey, all right.
01:20:23Oh, careful, careful.
01:20:25Okay, get it over to the buffet table.
01:20:27I got him, I got him.
01:20:28It's okay.
01:20:33Bethany?
01:20:34Bethany?
01:20:35Hope?
01:20:37I brought the mac and cheese.
01:20:40Thank you for being here.
01:20:41I really appreciate it.
01:20:43I'll show you where we can find some space.
01:21:04Hey, Tom.
01:21:05Ma'am.
01:21:06Oh, you can call me Laurie.
01:21:09You know how to two-step Laurie?
01:21:11I don't, actually.
01:21:15What are you about to learn?
01:21:43Let's get Hope up here.
01:21:45Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Hope, Come on now.
01:21:55All right, all right, all right.
01:21:58Well, first of all, I have to say thank you so much for coming to the Giddy Up Gala.
01:22:07And I just want to say, I have to admit, when I first bought this place, I wanted to bring
01:22:13back the Giddy Up Gala because I had so many great memories from the past with it, and
01:22:18the truth is, being with all of you here tonight just makes me think of how great our future
01:22:23is going to be here in Rudoso.
01:22:30All right, y'all know what time it is.
01:22:36Let's do this.
01:22:39Woo!
01:22:41Okay.
01:22:44Okay.
01:22:45Okay.
01:22:45Here we go.
01:22:50Woo!
01:22:51Woo!
01:22:53Woo!
01:22:55Woo!
01:22:56Woo!
01:22:57Good setup.
01:22:58Yeah!
01:22:59I've been sweating out in the sun, doing the work till the work was done.
01:23:05All day long, I've been thinking about what's waiting for me back at the house.
01:23:12Now this old boy's a man on a mission.
01:23:16I've been wanting some country kissing, country kissing, yeah.
01:23:22Oh, yeah.
01:23:30Oh
01:23:53Oh
