00:02Previously on Hope Valley, 1874.
00:05I can patch it up, but he'll take the last of the boards we got from the camp.
00:08That's right, I won't be buying lumber for quite some time.
00:11If the government wants to lure people west, what better way than to show them our new police force?
00:15I'm looking for a site.
00:17Not you, too.
00:18No, I'm no prospector, but I am going to feed them. I'm opening a mess tent.
00:21We make a great team.
00:23I love you.
00:24I love you, too.
00:33I love you.
01:10Eureka!
01:11Eureka!
01:23If you haven't sold out again, I'd like some hash, Mrs. Clark.
01:28I've got just enough.
01:31No, it's on the house. Thank you for everything that you've done to help me at the boarding house.
01:35But you're already paying me for that.
01:37It's not nearly as much as you deserve.
01:40Much obliged. I'll get that door clean today.
01:44I think we're going to have enough for me to place a small order of lumber with Vince when he
01:47comes back through.
01:48At least enough to keep the boarding house going.
01:50I finished cleaning the table. Can we go to the ranch now, Mama?
01:53As soon as the men are finished with their breakfast.
01:55But don't you have Mrs. McCabe's reading lessons?
01:57Why do I feel like this is more about you playing with Jenny?
01:59She's going to teach me how to make a doll from an old corn stalk.
02:01Oh, you're learning so much.
02:03It's better than school.
02:05Well, I don't know about that.
02:13I don't understand why Tom's determined to pile this field himself.
02:16He's got ranch hands to do it.
02:17Looks like he's got a score to settle.
02:19With who?
02:20I don't know.
02:21Himself, maybe?
02:22Seems dead set on proving he could be a successful farmer.
02:27Being a rancher is not enough?
02:29I don't think Tom knows the meaning of the word enough.
02:44You all right?
02:45It's my leg.
02:55Whoa.
02:56Good morning, Sarah.
02:57Hi, Mr. Moore.
02:58Vaga.
03:01Nice to see you both.
03:05Jenny's been waiting for you.
03:06Thanks, Mrs. McCabe.
03:09Now a good time for a reading lesson?
03:11Your time seems a little more precious than mine, though.
03:13How's the boarding house coming along?
03:15You know, the roof no longer leaks.
03:17We've patched that, so it's progress.
03:20You patch it up with the old wood the prospectors were using?
03:23Hardly call that progress.
03:28Lovely to see you, Mr. Moore.
03:30Always a pleasure, Rebecca.
03:32You know, if you would sell me lumber instead of burning it, I wouldn't be patching my roof
03:36with old wood.
03:37Oh, well, this isn't lumber.
03:38It's just offcuts from the fences, but you're more than welcome to it.
03:44Tom!
03:47Tom, it's back!
03:50Whoa!
03:50Whoa!
03:51His horse reared up in a snake!
03:53He fell hard!
03:54I'm fine.
03:55But you don't look fine.
03:56Fine, that's fine.
03:57It's his leg!
04:01Your shin.
04:02Your shin.
04:21it's definitely broken
04:25how bad bad where's the nearest doctor too far we need this taken care of right now
04:35you've learned anything from the war about setting a leg i saw my husband do it but
04:39it's not the same as knowing how rebecca you have to try
04:45please
04:54did you add some heart attack as well it's all there that's a little pemmican i appreciate
04:58your help olivia of course how long will you be gone for this time only about a week
05:04well you be careful out there don't worry about me i'm finding this territory a lot less hazardous
05:10than i was warned it would be what sure you get into some dangerous situations with
05:15outlaws or whiskey traders i wish that didn't come out right i don't wish for people to break the law
05:23of course i just i did anticipate a little more action you never had to wrestle a bear or i
05:29saw a
05:30cougar once oh really what happened i made a really loud noise and it ran away
05:37well you should still be careful out there
05:59well you're doing a fine job with that door lars thanks hattie uh mrs clark went up to the moore
06:03ranch if you're looking for her okay
06:21jimmy
06:21jimmy cricket mrs clark is not gonna be happy about this maybe she won't notice
06:31we're just lucky no one got hurt you know since i'm the one who patched this up i guess you
06:35can take
06:35back what you said about my fine construction skills no it's not your fault lars these boards were rotten
06:40to begin with with all the rain we've had lately i'm surprised it lasted this long so you're gonna
06:45need to replace this whole roof yeah i'm all right back nash there comes a time when it's all right
06:56i mean
06:57i heard you
07:00i guess this would be a way to get his legs set or he'll be hobbling around for the rest
07:06of his life
07:06the sooner the better i know
07:16let's get started and i've done something like this before
07:20okay well when has that ever stopped you let's think this through what do you need
07:31jim used to
07:35make a cast out of burlap and uh yeah plaster paris where where would we find something like that here
07:43clay go over to the trading post and see if hattie has anything like that yes sir
07:50when i need to immobilize the leg right after we pull the bones back into place
07:56after you what
08:07jenny are you all right i got chores to do is all i know how you're feeling it was hard
08:13when my
08:14paw was sick what if he never gets better
08:20your paw is going to be okay you think so yeah my mom will make sure of it
08:28are you sure you've got the dimensions right i measured twice you're going to have to drill
08:32holes that the strips can go through in order to stabilize the leg so you can do that you know
08:36i'm the one who taught clayton all about woodworking all right sorry look i get it this needs to be
08:43right
08:48you and nash have been friends for how long
08:51after i left ontario i started working my way west as a ranch hand
08:55i met nash in montana he was he was honest i'm hard working skilled rider i struck out on my
09:02own i
09:02persuaded him to be my foreman begging the kids fallen they took a big chance on me so they're your
09:12family
09:16yeah a lot could go wrong with a break infection bone deformity we're not going to let that happen
09:24that much we can agree on
09:29loosen that side for me
09:33pa are you gonna be okay you're just fine son how about you go out and help your ma fetch
09:38some water okay
09:46tom and rebecca shouldn't be much longer what if it don't be all right i gotta be able to work
09:52for
09:52my family you can't think like that it could have been so much worse what if let's not worry about
10:01the
10:01what if hi did clayton make it back yet no all right we're almost finished i'll be back soon rebecca
10:10uh huh what would we do if you weren't here to help
10:25i went by the house clayton wasn't there hi hattie is this the plaster of paris no actually it's
10:32building plaster but it's all i had it's going to be too thick i think you can make it work
10:52mama says we have to bring her at least a dozen okay
10:59you're gonna take charge or they'll peck at your hands
11:09the bonus set it better be
11:15want to tie these yes all right what's the plan with these egg whites i'm hoping that the air and
11:20egg whites will make the plaster more malleable and then what and then we dress his leg and we
11:25put the burlap in the plaster and the plaster on his leg and i hope it works
11:47hold it right there law man

15:12just fine
15:34that was quite the adventure today good teamwork
15:39you showed a lot of courage i was impressed
15:42a woman being courageous surprises you
15:45well i'm saying my experience a woman of
15:50your ilk
15:52my ilk
15:55yeah you know
15:58city girls
16:10i was once engaged to a city girl
16:15it didn't end well
16:18sorry
16:20okay
16:23we all got our stories don't we
16:29so what did you do
16:31the only thing i could do rode into the middle of the fight broke it up
16:36my introduction to this territory came when i saved the family from a burning cabin
16:40i ran straight into the flames again and again three times to be precise
16:45and went back with their dog
16:46remarkable
16:47all in a day's work she got plenty of similar tales since graduation
16:52well yes keeping the peace between the ranchers and the prospectors can be a full-time job right
16:58any gunplay
16:59thankfully no
17:00thankfully no
17:00thievery
17:01not quite
17:01what then
17:03hot tappers
17:04hurt feelings
17:06that sort of thing
17:07oh
17:08it sounds like important work
17:22well what's your plan now
17:24but nash is out of commission
17:28well i was planning on planning the field tomorrow but that's gonna have to wait
17:33because i'm gonna have to take care of the hundred little things that nash looks after
17:40what about you
17:44you're still nervous about that mountie
17:48what makes you think i'm nervous
17:53you don't have to answer if you don't want i won't press the issue
17:59well there is something i should tell you
18:03you were right sorry i couldn't hear you
18:07you heard me just fine
18:08i did hear you just fine but what was i right about because it could be so many things
18:11the wood that i used to patch up the roof at the boarding house
18:15it wasn't very good and i thought it might hold for a month or so maybe two
18:22the roof collapsed today
18:28that's a shame
18:31you don't want to glow
18:32no why would i glow why would i be happy that you and sarah don't have a proper roof over
18:36your head
18:39thank you
18:39i knew this was going to be hard but i don't have time to wait for the supply
18:45wagon i have to figure out a way to open the boarding house soon
18:49i guess we both have our problems you got a roof to fix and i got a field to plow
18:57you're not serious
18:59no offense but getting a roof built is much harder
19:04well no offense but you couldn't be more wrong
19:07i would much rather plow a field than deal with my bigger roof issue
19:12that's because you've never done it before
19:14doesn't the horse do all the work
19:18i'll tell you what i'll plow your field and in exchange you give me the lumber i need for the
19:24boarding house
19:27i'll tell you what you plow my field i'll chop down the trees myself and clean the wood for you
19:32you got a deal
19:35sure yes
19:37if i don't get lumber soon this will all be for nothing
19:42deal
19:47you best finish that steak you're gonna need the energy
20:12at least it isn't raining
20:15not now anyway
20:20we saw you come back
20:21oh
20:24oh no
20:28what are you going to do
20:30i'm going to plow mr moore's alfalfa fields
20:32what what
20:33he's going to give me the wood that i need to repair the roof if i plow the field we
20:36made a deal
20:37was this his idea no it was mine the only problem now is that i'm going to miss a night
20:41at the mess tent no i can bring the food down to the camp but i don't think that's your
20:44only
20:44problem what do you mean
20:47have you ever plowed a field before no but i'm sure i'll get the hang of it i probably just
20:54need

29:19What if he doesn't find out?
29:21You catch him?
29:24We've got to find him.
29:25We can't leave Mr. Tom's papers like this.
29:28Sam, can you tidy up?
29:30What? Thanks, Sam.
29:31Hurry, sir. Right behind you.
29:42Never in my life have I sat around like this all day.
29:46Well, I'll pitch in and manage somehow.
29:50Is Rebecca still out there plowing the field?
29:52She must be.
29:54I don't know. Tom let her do that.
29:56Well, from what I understand, it was Rebecca's idea.
30:00She's not one to give in easily.
30:02What are those kids up to? Supper's almost ready.
30:06At least one good thing came of this.
30:09I get to spend more time with you.
30:12Well, from what I recall, Nash McCabe,
30:15you made a promise to spend your whole life with me.
30:19And that's a promise I intend to keep for a long, long time.
30:24You better.
31:15I don't know the milk.
31:19What's that around his neck?
31:21Looks like a hanky.
31:26Come here, Clarence.
31:30Got him!
31:31You're such a troublemaker.
31:33We're going to have to get you back in your pen
31:35and clean this milk up before Mom notices anything happen.
31:39Sorry, Jenny. This is all my fault.
31:41I hadn't let Clarence out in the first place.
31:44But it was fun.
31:47You should have seen your face when he got out.
31:49And yours when you saw what he did to Mr. Moore's house.
32:01Okay, everyone. Everyone.
32:03Rebecca's not here, so there won't be a hot meal.
32:08What are you complaining about? I brought you food, didn't I?
32:13There you go, sir.
32:18When's she coming back?
32:19You know, you're making me feel downright unappreciated.
32:21Come on, Mrs. Quinn.
32:22Come on, Mrs. Quinn. I appreciate you.
32:25But not your sardines.
32:29Did Mrs. Clark figure out what to do about the roof?
32:31She's working on a solution right now, as a matter of fact.
32:34As soon as she opens the boarding house, we'll be the first to rent a room.
32:37When we met.
32:38Yeah, we'll get you into a proper home.
32:40Okay, sweetie. Let's go.
32:40Okay. Thank you.
32:42You're welcome.
32:48There you go.
32:53Alex, I appreciate all your help bringing this guy in.
32:56Well, thank you for giving me one heck of a story to tell.
32:59And, uh, I'm grateful you saved my bacon from that trap.
33:05Don't worry. I'll leave that part out of the story.
33:08Well, safe travels, Nick. And, uh, watch out for those 1,200-pound moose, yeah?

34:28it's funny how some fellas get all the luck and others get none
34:34Rachel sure seems excited to move into that boarding house
34:37problem is I'm not sure we could afford a room there
34:42it won't be completed for weeks it may be even longer depending on when Rebecca can get that lumber
34:47can't you save up
34:54barely scraping by
34:56everyone seems to be fine in gold except me I mean I find some flakes
35:02you know then but that's it and the work Mrs. Clark gave me it's it's helping us get by
35:11what happens when the work's done
35:14is Rachel now she keeps believing things will get better
35:19I'm sure Rebecca's gonna give you a reasonable rate
35:21no no I I won't have that she's in no better position than us she she needs full rent
35:28Maris I know what it's like to be a young family taking a big risk

37:42Well, not entirely.
37:44I didn't chop down the tree and plane the wood myself like I said I would.
37:48No.
37:49He had me do that.
37:51Well, thank you.
37:52There's a bunch more to come.
37:54Clayton, also, I noticed your craftsmanship on the dining table at the ranch.
37:59It's quite lovely.
38:00Thank you very much.
38:02It's going to take a lot of furniture to fill this place.
38:04I've been thinking about that.
38:07I see where this is going.
38:13So, the outlaw, he reaches for his pistol, and I know I've only got one chance to take
38:16him down.
38:17Otherwise, Nick's in trouble.
38:18So, I have to leap at it.
38:21A leap of faith, if you will.
38:22Okay.
38:22Then what happens?
38:23Tackle him to the ground, and we recover the stolen loot.
38:26That's amazing.
38:29Clayton.
38:34Sorry to interrupt.
38:35No problem.
38:37Rebecca sent me over to talk to you.
38:38Oh, really?
38:39Yeah.
38:39She hired me to build a dining room table for 12.
38:42Good for you.
38:43She wants us to work on it together.
38:45You and me.
38:45Oh, that's wonderful.
38:46I'll come up with some ideas, and we can run them by her.
38:48Sounds great.
38:49I have to, uh...
38:50Bye.
38:54Um, maybe we can do some, uh, some, uh, detailing in the corners here.
39:00That's quite a bit of detail.
39:02I hear you're up for the challenge.
39:03Yeah.
39:19Mrs. Clark.
39:21A word?
39:23Look at that.
39:26I see you finally got your lumber.
39:28Congratulations.
39:30Yes, we're moving in the right direction.
39:32I've got a question for you.
39:35Would it be all right with you if I was one of your first orders?
39:38When you're ready to open, of course.
39:40Oh, well, it's going to be a month, at least.
39:44I'm in no rush?
39:47Of course.
39:48Wonderful.
39:51Mr. Moore?
39:52Council.
39:58What's that about?
40:00Seems I have my first room reserved.
40:03You all right with that?
40:05I'll have to be.
40:06I'll have to be.
