00:01Previously on One Calls the Heart
00:03My grandson couldn't hope for a better father
00:06Thank you, Charlotte
00:07Don't let your past steal your future
00:14Christopher's gone
00:15They wanted him scared
00:16It worked
00:17I had him
00:18The evidence
00:19The story isn't over
00:20Not for this investigation
00:22And certainly not for us
00:26Okay, everyone
00:27I have an announcement
00:28Before I let you go for the day
00:30And it is good news
00:33Our friends from Benson Hills
00:36Will get to go home soon
00:40They built us a new schoolhouse already?
00:43Not quite, Missy
00:44But the rebuild committee
00:46Has been fixing up the homes
00:47That survived the fire
00:48So that people can move back
00:50And now they can get started
00:52On your new schoolhouse
00:53Why can't they stay here
00:54Until their school is ready?
00:56Well, that's a good question
00:57They'll be using a building
00:58In Benson Hills
00:59As their temporary schoolhouse
01:00So that all of the kids
01:01Can be together again
01:03Probably a smelly barn
01:04What's so great about that?
01:06Is that true, Miss Thornton?
01:08Well, I don't know
01:09What building it's going to be
01:10But I'm sure it won't be smelly
01:14I know it can be a little scary
01:16When you don't know
01:17Exactly what's happening
01:18But there was a time
01:20When you weren't sure
01:21If you would like
01:21Being in school here
01:22Remember?
01:27I promise you
01:28That everything is going
01:29To be all right
01:31And I'll see you all
01:32Right back here again tomorrow
01:38Have a good day
01:44Oh, good
01:45Glad I caught you
01:45Before your hike
01:47Still no sign of Christopher yet, huh?
01:49No
01:49And that mapmaker Scott
01:51Hasn't made any more calls to Whitaker
01:52So anybody who knows anything
01:54About Pioneer or this fire
01:55Just keeping their mouth shut
01:56Yeah, or running away
01:57Doesn't give us much
01:58To work with, does it?
01:59No
02:00Is Georgie digging anything up
02:01With national insurance?
02:02She's following a lead
02:03To Aberdeen as we speak
02:04Maybe she can come up
02:05With something
02:06To help us salvage this trial
02:07Yeah, let's hope
02:09Hey, how are things
02:10Going with you two anyways?
02:12Um, just
02:13Business as usual
02:15Have a nice hike
02:20Come in
02:22Uh, sorry to bother you, Governor
02:24Never a bother, Mr. Mayor
02:25What can I do for you?
02:27Will
02:27Uh, we're scheduled
02:28To break ground events
02:29On hells next week
02:30For the schoolhouse
02:31I heard
02:31Just in time
02:33That's great news
02:34Uh-huh
02:35One small problem
02:36I just put in
02:37For our first payment
02:38And found out
02:39That the funds
02:40Have been reallocated
02:42Reallocated?
02:43Mm-hmm
02:43No, no, no
02:44This is the Governor's Fund
02:45I never reallocated anything
02:46Well, it would seem
02:47That the Territorial Assembly
02:48Took a vote
02:49And went with, uh
02:51Urban upgrades
02:52To the Capital City instead
02:53It's just a constant game
02:54The subterfuge
02:55The cronyism
02:56I don't know what to say
02:57Lucas, I have to
02:59Pay my workers
03:01And I gotta get in there
03:02And start prepping that land
03:03And there's still debris
03:04To remove
03:05I'll make some calls
03:06This fund is for disaster relief
03:08Not Capital City potholes
03:10This won't stand
03:10Yeah
03:12Just, uh
03:13Don't send me home
03:14To Gwen with bad news
03:15That's all I'm asking
03:17That poor kid
03:17Has been through too much
03:20All those kids have
03:22I'm getting into it
03:23Thank you
03:29Okay, honey bear
03:30Time to head home
03:33I don't think he's listening
03:34I'll go get him
03:35Thank you
03:39Hey
03:39We're getting ready to go
03:40Is everything okay?
03:43No, do you think?
03:46I think I lost my dad's medal
03:49Oh, uh
03:51When did you notice?
03:53I was playing and
03:54I think it fell off
03:55Oh boy
03:57Everything okay down there?
04:01Please don't tell
04:02Uh
04:04You go on without us
04:05We'll catch up
04:07Okay
04:08Don't stay out too late
04:13Okay
04:15Let's try to retrace your steps
04:17Okay
04:38But the fund is for disaster relief
04:41We are trying to relieve
04:42The disaster
04:43It's politics, Rosie
04:45The assemblymen had other ideas
04:46A strongly worded opinion piece
04:50Might just encourage them
04:51To change their minds
04:52And by encourage
04:53I mean shame
04:54Shame isn't going to pay our suppliers this week
04:59Tied, I don't know
05:03Lee?
05:03I promise Gwen and her classmates a new school
05:05I don't know
05:06I feel awful
05:07Breathe, darling
05:09Breathe in
05:10And out
05:13Oh
05:14Bad time?
05:15Uh, no
05:16Never for you
05:17Thank you
05:19So
05:20So
05:20My students from Benson Hills
05:22Are feeling a bit nervous
05:23That their new schoolhouse
05:25Will be in a barn
05:25Is that right?
05:27No
05:28Is it?
05:30No
05:30It's technically more of a
05:32Farm equipment storage facility
05:34Next to a barn
05:35Oh
05:36Yeah
05:37Well
05:37Maybe if you could share the plans
05:39For their new schoolhouse
05:40It would give them something
05:41To look forward to
05:43Breathe, dear
05:44Oh
05:44Yeah
05:45What's going on?
05:46Elizabeth, I am so sorry
05:47I really wish there was more
05:49I could do to help
05:50But unfortunately
05:50The project has hit a bit of a funding snag
05:53And I haven't even hired
05:55A designer for the school yet
05:56Well, do you need one?
05:58You and Jack designed our schoolhouse ourselves
06:00Well, really it was more Jack
06:03But I didn't have a whole town
06:04I had to build at the same time
06:06Listen, if inspiration hits
06:07I'm happy to pass along any good ideas
06:10What about the children?
06:12I have got a whole classroom
06:14Just bursting with imagination
06:16We could open it up
06:18To the students like a contest
06:20Who better to know
06:21What their new school should be
06:22And what better way
06:23To get them excited about it?
06:24Yes
06:25Will?
06:27It gives them something
06:28To look forward to
06:29I think it's a great idea
06:30Mm-hmm
06:38Hello?
06:39Edie
06:40It's Lucas
06:41Lucas?
06:43My goodness
06:43How did you find me?
06:45Well, Florence shared your forwarding number
06:46I hope that's all right
06:49Of course
06:51So what brings you to Union City?
06:53Inspector McGill
06:54Arranged an interview
06:55With a foundation here
06:56They had a position open up
06:58In legal aid
06:58I see
07:01And will you be
07:02Accepting this position?
07:04I did
07:05Yes
07:07You didn't even say goodbye
07:08You didn't really give me a reason to
07:11Oh
07:18Edie
07:19I'm actually grateful
07:21Without your honesty
07:22I wouldn't have taken this opportunity
07:26I suppose I should say congratulations
07:28Thank you
07:32Now, I do start tomorrow
07:33And I would like to prepare
07:35So
07:35Actually
07:35I would love to get a little bit of advice
07:38If you have a moment
07:40Of course
07:41It's about funding for the Benson Hills rebuild
07:43Oh, no
07:44Is the Territorial Assembly diverting
07:46Funds
07:47Jinx
07:48They went around me
07:49And I'm done playing nice
07:51And so you've, um, called me?
07:54Well, you were quite formidable
07:55While working for the Cattlemen's Association
07:57So
07:58If you were working for me
07:59Let's imagine
08:00What might your next move be?
08:02How can I put these Assembly members on notice?
08:05How can I make them fear me?
08:06My, my
08:08I know it's not my usual style
08:10But I won't take this lying down
08:12Well, yes
08:13It seems that tougher tactics are required
08:16Can you give me a day to do some research?
08:18Make some calls?
08:19I would be very grateful
08:20Thank you, Edie
08:21I'll call you tomorrow after work
08:23How's five o'clock?
08:24I'll be here
08:25Good
08:39Oh, good timing
08:40Allie is on her way
08:42And the pot roast is just about roasted
08:47LJ, what's wrong?
08:50I lost Daddy's medal
08:52I'm so sorry
08:55Oh dear
08:57Well, maybe it's not lost for good
09:00We can still look for it
09:02Mount Nathan and I looked everywhere
09:04I'll go back out tomorrow morning
09:06Maybe with some more light
09:08I'd be able to
09:09It's my most special thing from Daddy
09:10And I lost it
09:17People are more than things
09:19And our memories of them
09:21Are what keep them alive
09:22Better than anything else
09:24But I don't have any memories of him
09:26The medal was all I had
09:28I've still got his hat
09:29And his drawings
09:31But the medal was mine, Mama
09:33It made me brave
09:43I'm so sorry, Lily
09:45Oh, it's not your fault
09:47Yeah, we must have gone up and down that trail
09:50Ten times
09:51Thank you for trying
09:57I'd better
10:06Nothing in this quadrant
10:07You?
10:08Nothing
10:09Dirt, grass
10:10More dirt
10:13Anything?
10:14Nothing
10:16That's the whole grid
10:18All right, let's do it again
10:19Oliver, check the other bank
10:20Yes, sir
10:22We're never going to find this thing, are we?
10:24It's not looking good
10:26Poor LJ
10:28Should have seen how upset he was
10:29He's finally old enough to feel the weight of losing his dad
10:31And his dad would tell him not to worry about this
10:34Well, his dad's not here
10:35Just wish there was something more that I could do
10:38Nathan
10:40You just keep showing up for him and his mom
10:43In the end, that's all that really matters
10:49And that is basically how all buildings get started
10:52An idea in someone's head
10:54And then a plan on paper
10:57Which reminds me
10:58I have something very special to share with you
11:00Something so special, in fact
11:02I don't think your teacher has ever seen this
11:09Are those?
11:10They are
11:11These are the original plans for this very building
11:16Drawn up by Constable Jack Thornton
11:18In 1910
11:21Wow
11:22Yeah
11:23Well, come on up, have a look
11:25Everybody gather around
11:26Don't be shy
11:28LJ, your dad built this school?
11:31Uh-huh
11:31That's amazing
11:36Thank you
11:37It is amazing, isn't it?
11:39And believe it or not, you can all design a schoolhouse too
11:43That's right
11:44And for our next assignment, we're all going to imagine our dream school
11:49And then turn it into a design using the techniques that Mayor Coulter just taught us
11:53And if we like your ideas, your design might become part of the new Benson Hills Schoolhouse
11:59You'd really do that?
12:01Gwen, it's like I always say, the best ideas can come from anywhere
12:05So dream big and let your imaginations run free
12:08Well, we're on a budget, so dream within a budget
12:11Lee, dream big and then dream even bigger
12:15I have a question for the judges
12:16Yes
12:17Would you prefer my schema to be an orthographia or a skinographia?
12:22Either would be just fine
12:24Yeah
12:24How about both?
12:26Just as good
12:27All right, why don't we take into lunch to brainstorm either by yourselves or in groups
12:32Let's go
12:33Okay, guys, come on
12:41What did those weird words mean?
12:43It's a Roman thing
12:44But we're not in Rome
12:45She said dream big
12:58And now, next on the agenda
13:01Daisy has some new campaign slogans
13:04Leading government into a new era
13:07That sounds nice
13:09But maybe something a little more people-focused
13:13Speaking of which, what time is it?
13:16If you'll excuse me
13:17I have some urgent business to attend to regarding funding for the rebuild
13:21Oh, may I remind you, Governor, that going against the Territorial Assembly's decision would be the kiss of death for
13:27this campaign
13:29Yes, I appreciate your perspective, Edwin
13:31But I believe the kiss of death in my campaign would be to stop governing while asking the people for
13:35another turn
13:37Keep working on those slogans
13:44Elizabeth, Allie
13:48Any luck?
13:50Oliver's still out there, bud
13:53Well, it's very nice of you
13:54Thanks for trying
13:55How's LJ doing?
13:56I think school took his mind off things a bit
14:01Could you ask the Mounties to give him another medal?
14:03Oh, Allie, that's a very sweet idea, but I don't think it's about the medal
14:06I think LJ wants his dad to feel real
14:09Like they have some connection
14:11Maybe I haven't done enough to keep his memory alive
14:13No
14:14I hear you talk about Jack to LJ all the time
14:18Sometimes when I'm missing my mom
14:20I look at old photos
14:22And ask dad to tell me stories
14:24I wish I could tell him stories about his dad
14:26But I guess there's other people that can
14:29Maybe that's an idea
14:33What are you thinking?
14:43Edie?
14:44I was beginning to think we almost missed each other
14:47I certainly hope that's not true
14:50I've been looking into the language of the Governor's Fund
14:52And it seems that the Assembly has found some loopholes
14:56That are going to make this tough to maneuver
14:58And my plan to exploit political weakness and vanquish my enemies?
15:02I don't think we need to turn to the dark side quite yet
15:06So you have another idea?
15:08Well, you could always protect the Fund in perpetuity
15:11With another executive order
15:12Jinx
15:14Well, I've done it before
15:16But I would like to do it properly this time
15:18So it sticks
15:20I owe it to those kids
15:21It turns out that the Franklin and Sons Foundation offers private grants
15:26And Mrs. Franklin's pet project is education
15:31Well, I appreciate the idea
15:32I'm just not sure how effective I'll appear as Governor
15:35If I need to use private funds to build a public school
15:38Well, your opponents might see it that way
15:40But I would say that you are a bold, progressive thinker
15:44Unafraid to forge new alliances to get things done
15:47And no Territorial Assembly to vote against it
15:49I do like that
15:50Well, we'll have to start on a proposal
15:52I've got time
15:54Now?
15:55Of course
15:56I'm a bold, progressive thinker, right?
16:01Right
16:06Oh, hi, Rupert
16:08Sorry, don't let me disturb your process
16:10What process?
16:12Are you having trouble?
16:13Do you know who Vitruvius is?
16:15Uh-huh
16:16The Roman architect, sure
16:18He says that all buildings should encompass strength, utility, and beauty
16:23Nothing I'm doing encompasses any of that
16:25I'm no Vitruvius
16:27I'm just Rupert
16:28Oh
16:30Well, I know it's hard to believe
16:33But everyone gets stuck
16:35I certainly do
16:36You do?
16:37Of course
16:39I bet even the great Vitruvius had false starts
16:44And you know what else Vitruvius had?
16:46A beard
16:49Well, yes, but I meant collaborators
16:53Most great accomplishments are the work of teams
16:56Not just a single person
16:59I'm not the best at talking to people
17:01I very much enjoy talking with you, Rupert
17:04Nobody wants to talk about Rome as much as I do
17:07Opal seemed curious
17:08And she's quite interested in architecture
17:11She is?
17:12Mm-hmm
17:13I don't think she's working with anyone
17:15You could offer to partner up
17:18She is a serious person
17:21I'll ask her
17:22Great
17:25Semper ad meliora
17:27I don't know that one
17:30Always towards better things
17:33Thank you, Ms. Thornton
17:35Mm-hmm
17:44Thank you
17:45Where's the surprise, Mama?
17:46Well, I know you said that you don't have any memories of your father
17:50So today we are going to be gathering up lots of other people's memories of him so you can keep
17:55them
17:55It's like a scavenger hunt, only instead of prizes, we're gathering memories
18:00Oh, boy, when can we start?
18:03Right now!
18:04This is your very first clue of the memory hunt
18:07Are you ready?
18:10Love can grow under the sun or the moon
18:13For your dad and me, it started right here in the...
18:19Saloon?
18:20Yes, that's right
18:21And I have some new treasures for you right over there
18:28Whoa
18:29All of these memories happened right here
18:33This is where your dad and I celebrated our wedding with all of our friends
18:37And this is a music box your dad used during our very own Christmas Mountie Ball
18:48And what's that?
18:50This is a test your dad gave me
18:52He made me think I flunked just to tease me
18:55I asked him if he went to sleep at night thinking up ways to drive me batty
18:59He said it just came naturally to him
19:03Sometimes I think you get that from your dad
19:06It took us a while to admit we liked each other
19:08We were like two stubborn goats
19:12That's weird
19:13Well, how things start don't always tell you how they're gonna end
19:17Mm-hmm
19:17And you are living proof of that, my boy
19:21Now all of these memories belong to you
19:24Are you ready for your next clue?
19:27Well, let's see what I have here
19:29Oh, Mountie, oh my
19:33Meet one of the bad guys your dad put away in jail
19:38Jail?
19:41Better hurry
19:49Yeah
19:51That's right, Jackaroo
19:52Your dad caught the Tollivers, the Garrison Gang, the Tate Outlaws, and me
19:58I don't believe it
20:00Well, thankfully your dad didn't either
20:02You see, there was a big misunderstanding
20:04And somebody blamed me for something that I didn't do
20:08But your dad helped clear my name
20:11And then we got the real bad guy
20:13And put him in jail together
20:14I knew it!
20:16Of course you knew it
20:17Because you got your dad's same gut instinct about people
20:20You trust that always, Jackaroo
20:29This won't be news to you
20:32Who in Hope Valley knew your dad when he was younger than you are?
20:36I know that!
20:38I know that!
20:38Aunt Rosemary!
20:39Why?
20:40Hey!
20:42Of course, but did you know I made your daddy act in all of my plays when we were growing
20:48Up?
20:48So villain, clown, pirate, he always said yes
20:53Even if the mustache glue gave him a rash
20:56Sounds like a good sport
20:57Just like you
20:59Oh, yes
21:00And did you know that your dad is the reason that Aunt Rosemary first came to Hope Valley
21:05Really?
21:06Yes, really
21:07Technically speaking, if it wasn't for him, I might never have met the love of my life
21:11And we wouldn't have had our precious little Goldie
21:14Oh, isn't it incredible how one person can affect so many lives?
21:19Yeah
21:21Are you ready for another one?
21:23Oh, yeah!
21:26Better me, better you
21:28Who makes us all better here in Hope Valley, thanks to your dad
21:33Oh!
21:34Thank you
21:35Bye
21:39But I helped you too, Dr. Pink
21:42When I met your dad, I was working at a hospital in Hamilton
21:46I was a nurse then
21:47But your dad told me about Hope Valley, and I knew I wanted to work here
21:52It meant a big change in my life
21:55But your dad made me think I could do it
21:57And that's what led me to finally become a doctor
22:01If it weren't for your dad, Dr. Carter wouldn't be here treating patients every day
22:05He gave me courage
22:07Just like when Lily was scared on her first day of school and you gave her your dad's medal of
22:11bravery
22:12I don't have the medal anymore
22:14What?
22:15Well, you have something even more valuable, LJ
22:19Your daddy's brave heart beating right inside there
22:30When your dad lived in Hope Valley, these were just seeds
22:35Now they helped feed the entire town
22:40I know
22:42How are you, young Jack?
22:45Want to go for a walk with me and tell you a little something about your old man?
22:49All right
22:50All right
22:50Mom
22:52I don't know if you know this about me, but I used to be a different man
22:57How different?
22:58Well, say I wore a different hat
23:03People, they, uh, they didn't much like me
23:06Which was understandable, because I wasn't a real good guy
23:11But your dad, even before we were really friends
23:15He invited me to his bachelor lunch
23:18What's that?
23:19Well, when you get married, you get together with a bunch of your friends
23:23And you, uh, talk nonsense and play checkers
23:27Tell you what
23:29See, your, uh
23:32Your dad's invitation
23:35Well, it meant a lot to me
23:38Showed me that, uh, I could be part of something
23:41If I wanted to be
23:46You know, there's an entire tree in here
23:50With a proper combination of sun and soil and water and time
23:57It'll spring to life and grow into something beautiful
24:02Well
24:03Your father's kindness
24:05To help me grow
24:08That's what's inside you
24:10So, spread that around as much as you can
24:14Thanks, Mr. Gowan
24:16My pleasure, young man
24:18Thank you, Henry
24:20Certainly
24:27I really appreciate this, Henry
24:29Especially with everything that's been going on
24:32Yeah
24:33Appreciate being included, Nathan
24:41So, if my grandfather was a Mountie, my dad was a Mountie, does that mean I'll be a Mountie?
24:49Only if you want to, when you're grown up
24:52I think he's got what it takes
24:53And I can get another medal
24:56Well, Oliver and I will keep looking for your dad's medal
25:00We're not going to give up on this
25:01Honey bear, I know it can be hard losing things
25:06But we found some things today too, didn't we?
25:10We found out that your dad was a great friend, just like you are
25:16There
25:16And, right
25:17You really like your dad there
25:20You know
25:21Just like your dad
25:22He changed a lot of people's lives
25:26I know you changed my life
25:29I know it's not the same as having your own dad
25:32But, I want you to know that I'm always going to be here for you
25:37Okay?
25:47I thought we were done with the memory hunt
25:49Well, this one came in special delivery
25:53There's one person who knew your dad better than anyone else and she's standing just behind you
26:01Grandma Charlotte!
26:03Charlotte?
26:04Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, let me see
26:10Uh-huh, you look like an algae, it fits
26:14You called Grandma?
26:15He sure did
26:17You missed all the stories
26:18Well, then you better fill me in, come on
26:27And he put Uncle Bill in jail
26:29Well, I never heard that one
26:30I can never put anybody in jail
26:33Your daddy was not always so tough
26:36He used to need a lamp at night when he was your age
26:39Why?
26:40Well, he was always hearing bumps in the night
26:43Once, he was convinced that there were ghosts in the barn
26:47Turns out, it was just a litter of stray puppies
26:50What did you do with them?
26:52Well, Jack made sure that we found a home for each one
26:54But, he kept the smallest one for himself
26:57We called her, thank you
26:59We called her Shadow
27:00Cause she was always following him around
27:02Can we get a puppy?
27:03We will have to check with Scout
27:06Aha, aha, here it is
27:09Okay, can you see who sent this to me?
27:13Jack Thornton
27:14My dad!
27:16That's right, back when he was in basic training
27:19He wrote me many, many letters
27:21But this one is for you
27:23But it wasn't even born yet
27:24What does it say?
27:25Well, why don't we see?
27:27Come on
27:32Dear Mom, march to a waterfall
27:34Please send a new razor
27:37Okay, here we go
27:39Standing by the waterfall
27:40The water loud enough to quiet my thoughts
27:42I realized
27:43I only need three things in this life to be happy
27:47To one day, be the best Mountie I can be
27:50To find a woman foolish enough to be my wife
27:54And, God willing, to look into the eyes of a little boy
27:59Brought into this world by love
28:02Is there any greater miracle than that?
28:07Jack said that Mounties never marry
28:10Ah, men's hearts are full of surprises
28:15And, your daddy's heart
28:18Is full of you
28:19Even before you were born
28:21Can I keep it?
28:22It's yours
28:24Maybe now, he can live in your heart too
28:29Because you
28:30You are your dad's greatest medal of honor
28:42So, we've got some nice trout
28:45Now, it's time to clean them up for cooking
28:51It's slimy, Grandma
28:52It's a fish, LJ
28:54Yucky and slimy are what you get
28:56So, first, we are going to scrape off all the scales
29:00So, go ahead, take your pick
29:03Is it okay if I go to my homework?
29:06Of course
29:12Hi! Busy?
29:13Not at all. It's so slow, I'm filing
29:18So, you actually read the case files, right?
29:23Only all the time
29:24So, you read Jack Thornton's cases
29:26These are some of the best ones
29:28Perfect. I'm hoping to turn one of Jack's cases into a story for LJ
29:34That's really sweet
29:35Do you think you could help me find the right one?
29:38Sure, but there's so many to pick from
29:40There's one where Constable Thornton busted a whole gang of smugglers using bugs
29:44It's one of my favorites
29:47LJ loves bugs, but
29:49I want it to be a little more exciting
29:52Let's look
29:57LJ's a really lucky kid
29:59I'll say
30:01I don't think many people have good memories of my dad
30:07Well, I'm not writing any stories about my mom either
30:09But I guess it's how we choose to live our lives
30:12That's how we rewrite the stories we were born with
30:17This one looks perfect
30:24The Tollivers?
30:25You'll love it. Constable Thornton fooled a whole gang with tablecloths
30:30And save Mrs. Thornton in the process
30:35Is LJ feeling better?
30:37I think so
30:38Charlotte was going to read him a bedtime story
30:40But he was asleep almost the moment his head hit the pillow
30:45Well, that scavenger hunt was a lovely idea
30:48A little disappointed I didn't think of it myself
30:50I didn't realize how many of those stories he'd never heard
30:53A few were new to me
30:55Jack acting in your plays
30:57He wasn't destined for the stage, but...
31:00Oh! And apparently he was quite the romantic
31:02Hiking out to waterfalls as a young man
31:04Dreaming of a life with a wife and child
31:07He told me Mounties never marry
31:10I suppose a certain Broadway bound bombshell might have made him relinquish those illusions
31:18I'm glad you two found each other
31:21I think you healed his heart
31:24And he healed mine
31:26Because of him
31:27I found my soulmate in Lee
31:31And the best friend I could ever ask for
31:35Right back at ya
31:38To Jack
31:39To Jack
31:45With generous support of the Franklin and Sons Foundation
31:49Crucial support
31:51Crucial support of the Franklin and Sons Foundation
31:55Working in partnership with the Territory
31:57We can build not only a new home for learning and community for generations to come
32:03We can build together a bold new alliance
32:06Bridging the public and private spheres to accomplish more for many
32:10Where fire-rot destruction, new paths can be forged
32:15Forged?
32:16Bloom?
32:17New paths can bloom
32:20Emerge
32:21Jinx
32:23Emerge
32:28Florence
32:30Have you been here all night?
32:32Shh! I'm just getting to the best part
32:35He's about to apologize
32:37At least he better be
32:39Florence, this isn't one of your novels
32:45If this goes through
32:47It'll be nothing short of a miracle
32:52The sun's coming up
32:54Mm-hmm
32:58Edie, I read a story the other day
33:00About a machine that can travel through time
33:03And I found myself thinking if I had one of those I would use it
33:07I would go back to the last moment that we saw each other
33:10And I would grab myself by the shoulders and I would tell him
33:12Forget all of your fears and just follow your heart
33:17Before it's too late
33:22Is it?
33:27We should get some sleep
33:30I'll have this on Mrs. Franklin's desk today
33:33Edie...
33:33Things have their moment, Lucas
33:37You shouldn't think so much about the past
33:44Very well
33:47Thank you for the help
34:09Constable Thornton knew that only one of him was no match for the whole Tolliver gang
34:14That's when he caught sight of Miss Abigail's neatly folded red tablecloths
34:21Lickety-split!
34:22The daring constable arranged those tablecloths outside the windows of the cabin
34:27So that each one looked like a Mounties red serge
34:31Luckily, there were more tablecloths than there were Tollivers
34:35And the meanest, most dangerous gang in the west
34:40Fell for it
34:41And surrendered
34:46Oh my goodness, Allie! It was so exciting!
34:50And very Jack
34:52Oh, you really captured his spirit
34:54I was there and I was still hanging on every word
34:58LJ's going to love it
34:59You really think so?
35:01I know so
35:01It's beautiful
35:04Allie, can I borrow it for the day? I want to read it again
35:08Of course! I was going to give it to him after dinner tonight
35:11Thank you
35:13I'm so glad you like it
35:16I love it
35:23Hey there, gents
35:25How goes the work?
35:27Off to a good start, Mr. Mayor
35:29Thanks for the support
35:30And Mike's been a big help
35:32Fire prevention's a top priority
35:34With the reinforced tower
35:35Hope Valley and his neighbors should have plenty of water for the next forest fire
35:38Let's hope we never need it
35:40Well, there's one project on schedule
35:42Well, thankfully the town council's not playing politics with our funding
35:45As you are, gentlemen
35:46I'm hoping I've secured funding for the schoolhouse at least
35:48Yes, I heard
35:49I got a call from Edie Martell congratulating me about a grant from the Franklin & Sons Foundation
35:56What, pray tell, did you do?
35:58Something bold and progressive
36:00That may or may not blow up in my face
36:02So it's a done deal
36:04Assuming we're all right naming the school after Arabella Franklin's grandson?
36:08I think I've proven I'm willing to name things after family
36:10So yes, congratulations, Governor
36:12Well done
36:13Thank you, Mr. Mayor
36:15Does this mean that Edie's going to be staying at the foundation?
36:17Yeah, it seems that way
36:18It's a great opportunity for her
36:21I'm happy for her, truly
36:23You know, technically there's still time for bold and decisive action
36:27If, say, a governor were so inclined
36:30I think that moment may have passed
36:33But let's go check out the schoolhouse
36:35Let's see what the kids have dreamed up
36:36I could use some hope for the future
36:38Fair enough, let's go
36:43And the fountain is filled with soda
36:45It's a real-life soda fountain
36:47Because school works better with soda and ice cream, right guys?
36:50Absolutely, yes
36:52They did say to dream big
36:54Thank you, boys
36:57Next up we have Rupert and Opal
36:59Here we go
37:02Thank you, Mrs. Thornton
37:03Esteemed judges, who we'd like to present
37:05The Scola Benson Hills
37:07With a few key innovations from the Empire of Rome
37:10Among these are the use of the Opus Chimentisium as a primary building material
37:14Also known as cement
37:15Able to withstand fire, rain, and the most destructive element of all
37:19Time
37:20And at the center is the library
37:22Because the library was always the center of my world
37:25A place where I could work and read in silence
37:27But it's also an open floor plan
37:30With plenty of gathering areas to share and debate ideas
37:34Because, as it turns out, debates with friends only make ideas stronger
37:39Trust me, we had a lot of debates getting this project finalized
37:42But we also became friends
37:47Living proof of the power of the free flow of ideas
37:50And we have a full plan to keep this project on time
37:53And on budget
37:54That's our Opal
37:57Good job
38:03I'm so proud of your teamwork
38:05Thanks, Mrs. Thornton
38:06Wonderful presentation, you two
38:10I was wondering if I might share your plans with the rebuild committee
38:16Absolutely, Mr. Governor, sir
38:18Thank you
38:19It's much appreciated
38:21Thank you, Governor
38:25Who's the Governor?
38:26He wants to present our design
38:28Congratulations, you two
38:30Thanks, Mrs. Thornton
38:32And thanks for helping me find the best collaborator
38:37Perhaps you're both on your way to Vitruvian excellence
38:46Well, that was definitely the best chicken a la king I've ever had
38:50Aw, didn't you say it was your first time having it?
38:53It's at the bar
38:54I'll take the compliment
38:56Well, I loved it. Thanks, Elizabeth
38:58Isn't it wonderful, all of us here together again?
39:02Just like her summer
39:02Mm-hmm
39:03Allie
39:05Can I show you something?
39:07Sure
39:18What is this?
39:19It's your story
39:20But I hope you don't mind, I added a few illustrations
39:27Oh my gosh, Charlotte
39:29This is incredible
39:31I used to be something of an artist
39:33Used to be
39:36Do you mind if I give it to LJ now?
39:39No, of course not
39:40Give me what?
39:41LJ?
39:42Come here
39:43I didn't have any memories of your dad to share
39:48So instead, I read one of his old Mountie case files
39:51And I wrote a story
39:54Um, your grandma Charlotte turned it into a book with pictures
39:58Is that my dad?
40:00It sure is
40:02And it's beautiful, Charlotte
40:07Can I read it now?
40:08Of course
40:10It's yours
40:13Nate Tolliver and his dastardly gang
40:15Robbed banks up and down the western territories for years
40:18And the law could never quite catch up with them
40:20Not how they mess with the dashing young Mountie, Constable Jack Thornton
40:24That's my dad!
40:26In a book!
40:27Yes, it is!
40:29Can you say thank you to Allie and Grandma Charlotte?
40:31Thanks so much, Allie
40:33Thank you, Grandma Charlotte
40:34You're welcome
40:35You wrote all this?
40:38You know, Jack illustrated and bound my first book
40:42That's when I realized I was really a writer
40:44We may just have another writer in the family
40:49Oh...
40:50I don't know about that
40:52I do
40:54Congratulations on your first book
41:00But danger can stop Constable Thornton
41:03Nothing good
41:03Especially when the beautiful school teacher
41:05Elizabeth Thatcher and her sister Julia
41:08Were taken hostage by the no good Nate Tolliver
41:10Mama, you were the hostage?
41:13Yes, I was and thank goodness your dad saved me
41:20Because Constable Jack Thornton was a good man
41:22And he had sworn an oath to protect and defend the good people of Coal Valley
41:35That's why I saw my son
41:35That's a huge deal for the job
41:44lark is making a great job
41:44And he was really excited about the job
41:45And he really wants to make a good job
