00:01Previously on Hope Valley 1874
00:04I came to open a boarding house and that's what I intend to do.
00:06With all due respect, I think you're making a big mistake.
00:09Why do you stay?
00:10Because, uh, it turns out I'm darn good at running a trading post. Who'd have thought?
00:14I'll plow your field. And in exchange, you give me the lumber I need for the boarding house.
00:19Deal.
00:20You gotta wonder what brought them out here, though, huh?
00:21Sure they got their reasons.
00:23There's no law out here.
00:25But I get the feeling you already knew that.
00:30Thanks for coming to help with the pillowcases.
00:33Do you think we have enough, Mama?
00:34I think we'll need a dozen once we start boarding.
00:37Okay. Then I'll keep making them after Jenny and I stuff these ones.
00:41It's been really sweet watching you and Jenny get so close.
00:44She's my best friend.
00:48Mama?
00:49Hmm.
00:51Do you think we'll ever have to leave here like we did in Chicago?
00:56No.
00:59This is our home.
01:04I'm afraid to feel too happy if we may have to go.
01:10I know.
01:11You know, this year's been so hard for you.
01:13It's scary.
01:14But it was all worth it because you're safe.
01:18It's alright to be happy.
01:20Let's feel that way together then.
01:22Relax.
01:29Just take him for a little walk in there, alright?
01:31Okay.
01:35That one's got a strong will.
01:37Gonna take a while to break him.
01:39I just gotta get him to trust me first.
01:43Whoa.
01:47I'm going to go find Jenny.
01:49Alright, I'll be back for you soon.
01:50Alrighty.
01:51He's beautiful.
01:52And feisty, but the good ones are worth the time.
01:56Hmm.
01:57How's the leg Nash?
01:59I can feel it healing.
02:00You're better any day now.
02:02Listen, take it easy.
02:03You're still off it for a while.
02:07Well, I haven't seen you around here for a while.
02:09I've been at the boarding house fixing up the walls and patching up the roof.
02:13Looks like everything's working out just the way you want so far.
02:16It is.
02:18You still have doubts?
02:19About you opening?
02:20No.
02:21About what happens after?
02:23We'll see.
02:25We shall see.
02:28We shall.
02:31But the good news is, you did such a good job plowing my field that the boarding house
02:36doesn't work out, yet future is a ranch ant.
02:39Ha!
02:53You made the right choice, Hattie.
02:55The amount of gold and cash you must be handling these days, you need a secure place to keep it.
03:00Yeah, I wonder what my husband would have thought.
03:03You know, us with a real safe.
03:04Like we're some kind of big city bank.
03:08Mind you, Frank never knew about the gold rush.
03:11Hello.
03:12Ah, Becca.
03:14Oh, look at this.
03:16Yeah, it's something, isn't it?
03:17Mm-hmm.
03:18Yeah, Alexander here persuaded me that under my petticoats in my bottom drawer
03:21is an adequate protection for my valuables.
03:25Ah.
03:26Well, unfortunately, more gold means more criminals.
03:30Ah.
03:31Here goes nothing.
03:32Mm-hmm.
03:43Okay, the instructions say three turns right, two turns left, and one more turn right with these numbers.
03:51Ah.
03:53There.
03:54I feel better.
03:56Mrs. Clark.
03:56Hmm?
03:57Can I stop by later?
03:58I have something I'd like to ask you.
04:01Certainly.
04:03Wonderful.
04:06Uh, Rebecca.
04:08This letter came for you.
04:10Oh.
04:10For me?
04:11Yeah, with a supply wagon from Benson Hills.
04:26That was bad news?
04:29No, no, just, um, an old friend.
04:32I am here for tomatoes.
04:34I need four cans, please.
04:35Coming right up.
04:36All right.
04:36Let's, mm-hmm
04:42Er, of me,ven.
04:43know. Ooh.
04:46Ooh.
04:48Is there
04:49hope in the valley?
04:52I, I wanna see it come alive
04:56I wanna see you come alive
04:58There's a storm in the coming skies
05:02I wanna be here when it dies
05:05I wanna see hope come alive
05:08I wanna see you come alive
05:31Dear Rebecca, I am writing to you via General Delivery, Benson Hills, Northwest Territory, as per your instructions
05:38I will keep this brief as the matter is urgent
05:41They are not giving up
05:43They know about you and Sarah heading west on the Oregon Trail by wagon
05:47But rest assured they will never learn about your true plans from me
05:52Your devoted friend, Eleanor
06:00Hey, here you go
06:02Oh, thank you
06:04Thank you
06:08Olivia
06:09Hey, I was looking for my ledger
06:11Oh, Mr. Martell was in earlier, so I noted down some things he bought on credit
06:15Then where did you put it?
06:17Oh, I thought I left it on the counter
06:19No, you didn't
06:20You left it on top of the barrel of beans
06:23Well, if you already found it, why did you ask me?
06:26Because I'm making a point
06:28I just need you to be a little more responsible
06:30Well, we can't all be perfect like you, Mother
06:33Wouldn't hurt for you to take on some of my qualities
06:37Oh, sorry
06:38Hi, Wanda
06:40Oh, lucky strike
06:42I found a nugget
06:43I figure I'm best to cash it in quick
06:45Good idea
06:48Olivia
06:51Oh, Alexander
06:52Good morning
06:55I have some very good news that I got via telegram
06:59The government has selected a few of your sketches
07:02Really?
07:03Yes
07:03Oh my gosh, I can't believe it
07:05I can
07:05You captured the frontier spirit perfectly
07:08Are they using the one I did of you?
07:11Unfortunately, yes
07:13They did
07:15My face is going to be on the walls of every government office
07:18From Halifax to Victoria, so thank you
07:20This is so exciting
07:22None of this would have happened without you
07:24I like to think that I know talent when I see it
07:28I think this could be the start of an illustrious career
07:31Clayton, I have to tell Clayton
07:32Thank you
07:39Oh, just under an ounce
07:41Nice find
07:43Let me get you some money
07:51Problem, Hattie?
07:53No
07:54No
07:55No, no problem
07:55Just, uh, looking for a piece of paper
07:58Huh
08:00Yeah, uh, tell you what
08:03Um, can you come back in a little bit?
08:06I'm just still trying to figure out this new safe
08:09Sure
08:10Yeah
08:11Oh
08:23Come in
08:25Come in
08:41Go to the mess tent and serve lunch
08:43I won't keep you
08:44Later tonight, I'm leaving for about a week or two
08:47I'm wondering
08:48Is it possible to move in upon my return?
08:52I...
08:52Well, that is just so hard to say
08:54I'm still furnishing the place
08:56Um...
08:57I was really looking forward to sleeping with a roof above my head
09:00I'm sure you were
09:03I'll do my best
09:05That's all I can ask
09:06Good day
09:14Okay, this one's almost done
09:17Alright
09:18The board is sure going to appreciate these on their beds
09:28It's kind of lumpy
09:29Oh
09:31Well, my mama sometimes uses tree moss inside pillows to make them softer
09:35Let's do that and surprise my mama
09:38Okay
09:40Then what are we going to do with all this hay?
09:45Um...
09:47Yeah, yeah, yeah
10:01Oh, my...
10:01I thought you were making pillows
10:04We are
10:05We've just got to get some tree moss
10:07Can I let him come?
10:10If he comes, he can help carry more moss back
10:16Yeah, sure
10:16Okay
10:18Let's go
10:28Clayton, you'll never guess what
10:30The government is going to use some of the drawings I did for them
10:33Oh, that's amazing
10:34I mean, not surprised though
10:36Seems everything you touch turns out beautiful
10:39They're using the one I did of Alexander
10:43Oh
10:45Hey
10:46I'm following your design for the table
10:48As close as I can
10:49Oh, so you don't want me to change anything?
10:52I brought my sketch pad just in case
10:53No, no
10:59Oh, Clayton
11:01This is beautiful work
11:04Every contour is just perfect
11:08Yeah, I, uh, just have to make another one to match it
11:13Would you mind if I watched?
11:16I'm curious about your technique
11:20Sure
11:22Great
11:24Hi, Mr. Moore
11:25Hey, where are you three off to?
11:27We're fetching tree moss for pillows
11:29Ooh, you know
11:31There is a stand in Douglas Furs down by the stream that's good for that
11:35Let's go
11:38Have fun
11:39Hey, Will
11:45Hey, Rebecca
11:51Hi
11:51Hey, have you seen Alexander?
11:54Uh, I saw him at the boarding house earlier
11:56Everything all right?
11:57I just ran into a little problem with my new safe
12:01I can't find a combination
12:04It's with the instructions
12:05And I cannot find them for the life of me
12:08You think they slipped behind something, maybe?
12:10Honestly, I have looked everywhere
12:13Darn if they didn't just grow legs and skedaddle
12:17If I can't open that safe, I can't buy gold
12:20I wish I could help you
12:22I've got to pick up Sarah after I clean all this up
12:24But maybe afterwards
12:25Thank you
12:26No, there's nothing you can really do
12:28Unless we drop it from the roof of your boarding house
12:30Just to crack it open
12:36Are you sure that there's nothing worrying you about that letter?
12:41I, I, uh
12:44Sometimes just feel like no matter where I go, trouble follows
12:49Yeah, you and me both
12:53This mall's is perfect
12:56Hey, look, prospectors
13:01I thought you were helping
13:07Finding any gold?
13:10I don't see how that's any of your business
13:12My boss says prospectors are just looking to get rich quick
13:16I'd rather get rich quick than slow
13:20Why are you swishing the water like that?
13:23Gotta get the sand out because the gold's heavier
13:26Don't you know anything about prospecting?
13:28I do now
13:29Can I try?
13:31Don't touch that
13:36You know what?
13:38There is a great spot for prospecting
13:41Just upriver around the bend
13:46Take this with you
13:49Golly, thanks
13:49Yeah
13:50You better get going
13:51It's a long walk
13:52Nuh-uh
13:53I know a shortcut
13:56Why did you give him our gear?
13:58Ah, don't you fret
14:00That was my unlucky pen
14:03And I didn't want him to see this
14:15Where are you going?
14:17Sam, hold up
14:18Wait for us
14:19Sam
14:27Okay
14:28And
14:28All done
14:32I just love that this was Jim's jacket
14:34I do too
14:36Let's try it on
14:37All right
14:47Maggie
14:48You've done such a beautiful job
14:51Thank you
14:53It's the least I can do after everything you did for Nash
14:56Well
14:57It really does mean the world to me
15:01All right
15:02How are the children getting on?
15:04Fine
15:05I made them lunch
15:06And they went to the barn
15:08Let's go see how those pillows are coming along
15:10Okay
15:24Where'd he go?
15:25Ma always says he's faster than a jackrabbit
15:28Yeah
15:30Is this still the Moort Ranch?
15:32I guess so
15:33It's an awful big place
15:34Yeah
15:40You're a wonderful craftsman, Clayton
15:42Oh, I just learned, right?
15:45You gotta shave it real thin
15:47And then brush
15:50Here
15:51You try it
15:53Oh, no
15:54No, I'd ruin it
15:56I'll make sure you know
15:57All right
16:05Take it slow
16:07Nice and easy
16:18Not too much pressure
16:26See?
16:28Just takes a gentle touch
16:30Um
16:32Rebecca's going to be so thrilled with the table
16:34It's gonna have charm and beauty that'll grace the room
16:37I suppose you're wanting to head back?
16:44Your mom must need you
16:47I think I'll stay and watch a little while longer
16:50I'm sure my mother has everything under control
17:03Here, you're looking for me, Hattie
17:05Yeah
17:09I can't get the safe open
17:12Combination should be with the operating instructions
17:14Oh, why didn't I think of that?
17:17These new contraptions, they can take some getting used to
17:21Right
17:22I can't find the instructions
17:25I have looked everywhere
17:28That is a problem
17:30Well, don't you Mounties have some kind of code to open these things?
17:34Well, no
17:36You're supposed to memorize the combination
17:43There has got to be a way to get into this thing
17:46I need my cash
17:48I couldn't even guess where to find the nearest locksmith
17:52Or safecracker
17:56Leave it with me
17:58Well, do I got a choice?
17:59Nope
18:09That's odd
18:10I wonder where they went
18:12Sarah!
18:14Jenny!
18:17If you're looking for the kids, they're off gathering moss for your pillows
18:21Oh
18:22I told them to check the woods down by the stream
18:25How long ago was this?
18:27A couple hours ago
18:28A couple hours?
18:30Yeah
18:30Well, they know to come back before it's dark
18:33They head off on their own all the time
18:38I'm going to go look for them
18:43I'm going to go to the house in case they come there
18:45Huh?
18:52Sam?
18:54Where is he?
18:57Boop!
18:58Stop playing around
19:00We're supposed to be getting moss
19:02We're supposed to be getting moss
19:02Not me
19:03I'm going prospecting
19:05Shouldn't we be able to hear the stream from here?
19:07It's sour
19:07It's this way
19:21Excuse me, can I trouble you for a saddle?
19:25I got it
19:27I'm coming with you
19:28Fine
19:31Thank you
19:32Thank you
19:43For what it's worth, I didn't encourage them they go off on their own all the time
19:47Sarah doesn't
19:49You're going to be fine
19:51You don't know that
20:05There's no need to worry
20:07Out here they have a little more free reign
20:09I'm sure you remember what it was like when you were a kid
20:11Exploring
20:14I have good reason to be concerned, all right?
20:39Over there
20:39Yeah
20:49He's packing up, don't want any trouble
20:51Neither do I
20:54They're looking for three youngsters
20:56Two girls and a younger boy?
20:57Yes, you've seen them
20:59It's been a couple of hours
21:00The little fellow was pestering us
21:03Wanting to prospect
21:04Sam wanted to pan for gold
21:05Well, what happened?
21:06Where did they go?
21:07I gave them one of my old pans
21:09Told them to give it a shot
21:11Doyle
21:11Where'd you send them?
21:13I just told them to follow the stream until they reached the bend
21:16Well, the boy said he had a shortcut
21:20Over up to the woods
21:24Okay, let's go
21:25Hold on
21:33It's gonna be dark soon
21:40It's gonna be dark soon
21:40Thank you
21:44Are you gonna keep giving our stuff away?
21:46What?
21:59Here we go
22:01Pete
22:02Pete
22:02It's Pete, isn't it?
22:04What about it?
22:06I'm looking for someone
22:07Someone with a particular set of skills for breaking into a safe
22:13What you're asking me for?
22:15I ain't done nothing
22:16Word is you've got the right
22:18Or should I say wrong kind of friends
22:20Well, I ain't criminal
22:21So I don't got criminal friends
22:22You misunderstand me
22:23I need help to break into a safe
22:27Huh
22:28Well, if it's a safe cracker you're after
22:32You might want to talk to Harry over there
22:36He's a legend back in Tucson
22:40You're sorry
22:50I'm hungry
22:54Sarah, no!
22:55Baneberries are poison
22:59It's going to be dark soon
23:01This is all your fault, Sam
23:03What?
23:04You're the one that sent us off in the wrong direction from the stream
23:07Arguing won't help
23:22Ron!
23:25AIM!
23:34Hattie!
23:35Found a volunteer to help you open your safe
23:37Thank you
23:41Happy to help, ma'am
23:50There we go
23:52Oh, Sam thinking he knows a shortcut
23:55It's just like him
23:55Sarah!
23:58Now they probably got turned around
24:01Walking in circles
24:02You're being awfully casual about this
24:04They're clearly lost and terrified
24:08Okay
24:09Well
24:11Look at this
24:12They took moss from this branch
24:16Right this way
24:30I don't know which way is home
24:33Okay
24:34We should just keep moving
24:37But how are we supposed to know where we're going in the dark?
24:43Okay
24:44Okay
24:44Let's go
24:44Let's go
24:50Let's go
25:01Meggie, you've looked out that window for the umpteenth time
25:06Where are they?
25:08Tom and Rebecca will bring them soon
25:11I just wish there was something more that we could do
25:16I'd be out there with them if it wasn't for this
25:25Of course you would
25:42Sarah!
25:45Your trail's still clear
25:48Jenny, Sam!
25:52Rebecca, listen
25:54Listen, I just want to say
25:55I'm sorry that I didn't ask if they had permission from you two before they left
26:01Thank you
26:03I'm worried about them too
26:09What is that?
26:11What is that?
26:11What is that?
26:17Jenny!
26:20Jenny, sweetie!
26:24Just wait
26:25There's small footprints here
26:29They change direction
26:32Which way?
26:33Which way?
26:37What is it?
26:40Wolf tracks
26:41How many of them?
26:44There's two
26:44Sarah!
26:46Rebecca
26:47Rebecca, wait
26:48Don't run
26:49Sarah!
26:50Rebecca
26:51Slow down
26:52Slow down
26:53Sarah!
26:58Sarah!
27:16You
27:16They're not down there. Look, there's no slide marks little clothes on the brush
27:36Where is my daughter? I promised myself one thing that I would keep her safe
27:44That nothing and no one could ever take her away from me. Who would take Sarah?
27:52Jim's parents. What?
27:59I
27:59Thought if I put enough distance between us
28:04She would be safe she's still in danger and I just keep failing
28:15Rebecca we are going to find those kids come on
28:25I
28:27Is this working?
28:32Okay, how long is this gonna take I've never done this with no expectation of a payday
28:40Let's say
28:43There's two bits in it for you
28:45Ma'am
28:46You and me have different ideas of what a payday is
28:49Hope you're not trying to extort this fine woman in front of a police officer
28:53No, sir. We're just making conversation
28:56Extortion or no? I will give you a dollar if you can open that a dollar
29:02Just for opening the safe
29:21What when did you learn to do that when I read the instructions
29:25You didn't memorize the combination. I didn't have time. I was busy
29:31Oh
29:35Maybe you could do it now
29:39Why did you lock these in the safe?
29:42It was on the counter where anyone might have seen it so I put it in the safest place I
29:45could think of
29:46The safe
29:49But I suggest we change the combination now as well
29:52No offense
29:53So I'm taking it
29:57So, uh, do I still get my dollar?
30:01No
30:08Okay

30:15Well, they could be at home eating supper right now if it wasn't for you
30:20I'm sorry
30:23Hey, when mom and I were traveling in the wagon, you know, I'd get scared sometimes
30:27But she said if we stayed calm and we were brave then it turned out fine
30:32Okay
30:33Did it?
30:35We made it here, didn't we?
30:40I'm sorry
30:43Maybe we should make a fire
30:45We'll saw a pod do it once
30:47Okay, let's do that
30:49I can't sit here and do nothing any longer
30:55I can't ride, but I can drive a wagon

32:12And uh, please tell Olivia that I said congratulations again, would you?
32:17Oh, for what?
32:18Oh, I guess she didn't tell you
32:20The government selected a few of her sketches for their advertising to attract settlers to the northwest
32:26That's quite the feather in her cap
32:27You know, she's a remarkable young woman
32:37So creative, so many ideas
32:40She's

35:43You're okay.
35:44Whoa.

35:47What's that?
35:50Is that them?
35:52Look!

35:55Mama!

36:00Mama!
36:03Papa!
36:05Papa!
36:06Oh, my boy.
36:08Come here, come here.
36:10I'll look at you.
36:12Are you okay? You okay?
36:14You're safe now, okay?
36:16You're safe now.
36:17I'm okay.
36:23Here, a little cocoa to warm you up.
36:36Tastes good?
36:37Good.
36:40You sleep okay? You're pretty tuckered out?
36:43Yeah.
36:48Mama?
36:51When we were lost, I was scared, but I didn't tell Sam and Jenny.
36:55I told them what you said when we were in the wilderness about being brave.
37:01That's kind of you to be strong for your friends.
37:08Were you scared when we were on the trail?
37:12I was.
37:15And you acted brave?
37:18For me?
37:19That's my job.
37:21Be brave for both of us.
37:25Thank you, Mama.
37:37Should we put this in too?
37:39Oh, yeah.
37:41That's a good idea.
37:53Congratulations.
37:54Hm?
37:55I hear people from all over are gonna see your drawings.
37:58That's, that's really something.
38:01Alexander told you?
38:02Yeah.
38:03I was going to tell you earlier, but you seemed really frustrated about the safe, so...
38:07That I was.
38:09I'm sorry.
38:10You always have this place running so smoothly, I just assumed that you had the combination memorized.
38:15No.
38:15You're right.
38:17I should have memorized it.
38:20And I know you were just trying to help.
38:29Olivia?
38:34You do not have to be more like me.
38:39You are absolutely perfect the way you are.
38:42Go.
38:44Oh, no.
38:44No, no.
38:51No, no, no.
38:54Okay.
39:18Hey.
39:21Wow.
39:23Wow.
39:25It's really coming together.
39:27Um, she's...
39:29Oh.
39:31I was just coming by to make sure she's okay.
39:36She's resilient, but exhausted.
39:41How are you doing?
39:44I'm all right. I'm really grateful they're okay.
39:50Okay.
39:55Look, there's something I've been wanting to say that's been weighing on me.
40:02I saw the telegram from Chicago when you first arrived.
40:09You were right to leave when you did.
40:14I wasn't poking about. I just happened to see it in your things.
40:19Who did you tell?
40:20No one.
40:23I swear.
40:25I figured if it's got you running, it's gotta be pretty bad, and it's your business.
40:35It's Jim's parents.
40:39It never approved of me, and that's why they're trying to take Sarah.
40:44I won't write to that.
40:46They don't, but they have money.
40:48And as my mother-in-law loved to remind me, money is power.
40:52When you can influence authorities, you can take what you want.
40:58That's why you don't trust the police.
41:01Which is why I don't trust the police.
41:05Then you wanted to get as far away as possible.
41:08So you bought a boarding house.
41:11Sight unseen.
41:12I just thought this far out west.
41:15Nobody would find us.
41:17They would certainly give up.
41:20Apparently they haven't.
41:22You listen to me.
41:23You brought her across the frontier, and you kept her fed.
41:28Safe, warm, and you built home on nothing.
41:34Nobody could do more to protect their child.
41:42I'm just trying to do my best for Sarah.
41:49If anyone comes here looking for you or Sarah,
41:54they're gonna have to come through me first.
42:05The one right here.
42:31To learn how to protect her people to
42:31You
