00:01Previously on Hope Valley 1874
00:04No, no, no. It's not the end of the world.
00:06Although if it isn't, I would hate to see who it is.
00:09I need lumber for repairs.
00:10I don't have any to spare, because I'm planting alfalfa,
00:13and I have to build a fence to keep the cattle on.
00:15Isn't that lovely?
00:16Clayton made it. Isn't he talented?
00:18I'll say.
00:20I wanted to order some lumber from Mr. Williams.
00:23It's more than I expected.
00:30Don't forget to breathe.
00:35That's not so bad.
00:37What's that one made from?
00:39Calendula.
00:40There's a melon.
00:42Isn't that nice and soothing?
00:43It's gonna help you heal faster.
00:45You know it is marigold.
00:47Why don't you just call it that?
00:48Because we should know the proper names for things.
00:51Like Grandma taught you?
00:52That's right.
00:55I wish I'd gotten to meet her.
00:58Me too.
01:00She would have adored you, Sarah.
01:02All right.
01:03Next time you decide to see how fast you can jump rope,
01:05you will...
01:06Tuck in my skirt.
01:08Tuck in your skirt. Thank you.
01:09I will.
01:11I wear a new jump rope. Someone from Jenny.
01:13Wanna come hear it?
01:14I would love to, but I still have a lot to do here.
01:17I'll wait for you.
01:19No, you better go play.
01:20There's still so many planks on the upstairs floor that need replacing.
01:23Do they?
01:27Found another spot!
01:29Lars, are you all right?
01:31No, I'm fine. I'm fine.
01:32But, you know, I can't say the same for your floor, Mrs. Clark.
01:35I can patch it up, but he'll take the last of the boards we got from the camp.
01:38Oh, no, but there's still so many that need to be repaired.
01:41How will he pay for it all?
01:43You don't need to worry about that. Go play. I will figure something out.
01:49Do not sell the ring.
01:51Okay?
01:54I won't.
02:03What a good one.

03:34maybe you want to reconsider gold panning I was only half joking about that things have changed
03:39what's changed some prospectors hit pay dirt at a stream nearby so now the whole camp has moved

06:51excuse me
06:52the government are going to publish sketches of the frontier
06:55what on earth for
06:56to entice settlers to move west
06:58they're looking for drawings that capture the promise and romance of what's out here

07:37they have their own cook
07:38oh
07:38they can't leave their cattle so they make their own meals
07:42so it must be the same for the prospectors
07:43they
07:45they can't leave the stream
07:46but they need a hearty nutritious meal
07:48when was the last time any of them were acquainted with a vegetable?
07:53what are you thinking?
07:55well I'm going to have to start feeding them at the boarding house soon anyway
07:58why wait?

08:25on the trail we had to do all sorts of things we never did before
08:28what was it like where you're from?
08:30there was a lot more people
08:32sometimes we'd ride a trolley
08:33or go to the park
08:34wow
08:35my favorite day was Sunday
08:37because I'd help mama make pancakes
08:39and we'd use the good china

09:13a canvas covering
09:15that I could purchase?
09:17how big?

09:28Jeremiah

09:33they haven't shown up yet
09:36why not?
09:38I'll tell you but
09:40you're not gonna like it
09:46have you seen my new sketch pad?
09:48under the scale
09:50oh
10:01is everything okay?
10:04just been looking at the ledger
10:09when was the last time you saw Phoebe Taylor?
10:12it's been a while
10:13but that's Phoebe for you
10:14yeah but all the years I've known her
10:16she'd at least come by
10:17for a cup of tea now and then
10:19now this is unusual
10:21even for her
10:22well how much does she owe us?
10:25three dollars
10:27I should go pay her a visit
10:29for three dollars?
10:31since her son left for the east
10:32she's all alone out there
10:33she seems to be getting on just fine
10:35no but something could happen to her
10:37and nobody would even know
10:39I just I don't want her to be forgotten
11:10John
11:11Charlie
11:11fellas
11:13what do you all think you're doing?
11:20Have you heard, boss?
11:22Folks have been finding gold in this new stream.
11:25Figured we'd give it a shot before it's all gone.
11:27What about your jobs at the ranch?
11:30Well, we got down here at the crack of dawn.
11:33Thought we'd pan for a few hours.
11:35Ugh.
11:37I guess we lost track of time.
11:39Well, you're gonna lose a lot more than that if you don't get back to the ranch.
11:42We've got a fence to build. Let's go.
11:45Cowboys panning for gold.
11:47Huh.
11:48Pure foolishness.
12:01Rebecca.
12:03Mr. Moore.
12:04Hi.
12:05Hello.
12:06Surprised to see you here.
12:08Well, I just came to talk some sense into my ranch hands.
12:12They got gold fever.
12:13Wow.
12:14That must not sit well.
12:16So that leaves you shorthanded on the ranch?
12:19We'll be back.
12:20Eureka!
12:22Someone else has got luck!
12:33Okay.
12:34So what are you doing here?
12:36I'm looking for a site.
12:38Well, not you two.
12:40No, I'm no prospector.
12:41But I am going to feed them.
12:42I'm opening a mess tent.
12:44There's gonna be hot food?
12:46When?
12:47Starting tomorrow.
12:49Oh, great.
12:53You hear that?
12:54She's gonna feed them.
13:12Good afternoon, Phoebe.
13:17Howdy.
13:18What brings you out here?
13:20I was in the area.
13:21I just thought I'd pay my respects.
13:24Oh, you came to collect the money I owe you.
13:28There's that, too.
13:31I, uh...
13:32Oh, see you've been keeping busy.
13:36Is that the canvas I sold you a while back?
13:38What, you treat that with beeswax?
13:41It keeps the rain off.
13:46Olivia and I were just talking about your Daniel.
13:50You must miss him.
13:55Bird's gotta leave the nest sometime.
13:57No point shedding tears over it.
14:02You don't fool me, Phoebe Taylor.
14:05Your son was the apple of your eye.
14:09I'll be by the trading post in the next week or so.
14:11He'll get you three dollars then.
14:13I'll be counting the days.
14:15Look, I'm just curious why you haven't come by recently.
14:17Just no call to.
14:19Is it the prospectors?
14:20You haven't come by much since they started showing up.
14:22They're just people.
14:24Exactly.
14:26Course, people can be annoying.
14:29Present company excluded, I presume.
14:32Now bees, on the other hand, they mind their own business.
14:36They're hard workers, they got no time for idle chit chat.
14:39Me and them, we share that particular quality.
14:42Have it your way.
14:44I will leave you to your beeswax.
14:46Much appreciated.
15:13You lost your way, Olivia?
15:15I'm looking for the perfect picture of promise and romance on the frontier.
15:19Right.
15:20Okay.
15:20Well, best face the other direction.
15:23Nothing romantic about me washing our unmentionables.
15:28What'd you have in mind?
15:29I don't know.
15:30I can't just draw any old thing.
15:32It's for the government.
15:33It has to be something grand and romantic that'll lure people west.
15:36I hope you find what you're looking for.
15:48I just came from the bunkhouse.
15:53The cowboys didn't come back.
15:56I'm sorry, Tom.
15:58I don't know what they're thinking.
16:00They're not.
16:03We need 400 of these posts, which means we gotta dig 400 more holes to put them in.
16:09I'm well aware.
16:11That's too many with too few men.
16:12We won't finish in time for planting season.
16:14Won't be the first time we've been in a tough spot.
16:16This time it's different.
16:18We've got a bigger herd.
16:20There's more to lose.
16:23We need more hands.
16:24Just let me put the word out.
16:27I'm not giving up on my men.
16:29They gave up on you, Tom.
16:42Why didn't you tell me about the mess tent yesterday?
16:44What?
16:45You were playing with Jenny.
16:47I didn't want to interrupt you.
16:50I reckon you can use a few extra hands.
16:55Yes, please.
16:58Yeah, it goes like this here.
17:05This tent used to be the old trading post.
17:07Brings back memories.
17:09Our first winter here.
17:12Darn near froze our tails off.
17:14Poor Olivia just had me and Frank for company.
17:25Sarah, we're gonna be here a while.
17:26Why don't you see if that girl wants to make friends?
17:28But I want to help. I don't...
17:30That's Vivian.
17:31Yeah, she's real mature for her age.
17:33Just like you.
17:34Go on, sweetie. We'll be right here.
17:36I want...
17:37Go on.
17:38Okay.
17:57Maybe we should bring some of our cowboys back from the south pasture.
18:02We'll risk losing too much of our herd.
18:05What's the point of growing alfalfa if we don't got cattle to feed?
18:10What's the point of you digging yourself into an early grave?
18:13Let me take over for you, boss.
18:15Just keep them coming, Jeremiah.
18:17I'm fine.
18:21Tom, we need more men.
18:24Oh, God.
18:43What are you making?
18:46It's for fishing.
18:48Gotta catch supper for my pa and me.
18:51You should have supper at our mess tent.
18:52You can't be my mama's cooking.
18:54Is that what that's supposed to be?
18:56Some kind of restaurant?
18:59We're selling meals to the prospectors.
19:04My pa and me are having trout.
19:10What are you planning on making tonight?
19:13Oh, I never had any complaints about my gumbo.
19:16Lots of herbs and aromatics.
19:19They won't even know it's good for them.
19:21It sounds big city.
19:23Yeah, it's New Orleans, actually.
19:25There you go.
19:26I would just stick with what they know.
19:29I mean, salt pork, beans.
19:30Come on, everybody likes to try something new, don't they?
19:33Yeah, sure they do.
19:34As long as it's exactly the same.
19:43Sarah's been gone a while.
19:45I wonder if she's getting on with that girl.
19:48Seems like Sarah can make friends with just about anyone.
19:51Yeah, she's had to learn.
19:53I feel guilty.
19:55I feel like she's been losing part of her childhood.
19:58I used to think the same thing about Olivia.
20:00Wait, she turned out just fine.
20:02She did.
20:03Yes, she's so impressive.
20:05And her illustration skills, the fact that she's self-taught, it's wonderful.
20:10Yeah.
20:12What?
20:14I'm a terrible person.
20:17Yes.
20:18Horrendous.
20:20Part of me wishes she wasn't doing these sketches.
20:23What if she sells them?
20:24What if she finds a life for herself and make an art somewhere far from here?
20:31What if she leaves me?
20:33No?
20:34No, I'm just, I'm being selfish.
20:36No, you're being a mother.
20:39It's scary.
20:40I've thought of that too.
20:44Oh, Sarah.
20:45Hey.
20:45Oh, how'd you get home with Vivian?
20:47She's busy and she needed to help her pa.
21:16Good morning.
21:18Good morning.
21:21Good morning.
21:23I, uh, know I've got you to thank for Alexander Company about the sketches.
21:27As far as I can tell, no one can sketch better than you.
21:30Clayton Cooley, I am an amateur at best and you know it.
21:33You are too modest.
21:35Let me see what you've drawn so far.
21:38Sorry.
21:39No disrespect.
21:44Very well.
21:52So much for your opinion of me.
21:54My opinion of me hasn't changed, but seems you're having a little trouble getting started.
21:59Well, it's one thing when I'm just doing it for fun.
22:03It's another when I know that people are going to judge me.
22:08Clayton, what if I'm not good enough?
22:10Of course you are.
22:12They're looking to others to find the beauty in this place.
22:15And who better than you?
22:16So...
22:19Talented.
22:20Just saying that to be kind.
22:22I most certainly am not.
22:24I mean, take that deer you drew the other day.
22:27The curves of the antlers.
22:29It's more impressive than the real thing.
22:31You really think so?
22:33No question.
22:35It's the way you look at things.
22:36You make everything more beautiful.
22:39Well...
22:40I don't... I don't know about that.
22:42It's true.
22:44Can you really reach in and find the spirit of this place?
23:11No one...
23:13Can we go fishing some time?
23:15Sure!
23:15We can cook the fish for the prospectors.
23:18Oh, I can't forget my secret ingredient.
23:25Is that garlic?
23:27Yes, it is. Hello.
23:30I brought it from back east.
23:32I sure hope everyone likes it.
23:34Yeah, I mean, Lars and I love it, but, you know,
23:37we're used to our parents' European cooking.
23:42Oh, I'm gonna need more salt.
23:43Hattie, I'll have some. I can stay and, um, watch things.
23:47Can you?
23:48Thank you. All right.
23:49No, sweetheart, stay here. It'll be faster if I go by myself.
23:52I'll be right back.
24:00Thanks, Hattie.
24:01Oh, excuse me. Sorry.
24:03You're in a hurry.
24:04About to serve my first meal. You're welcome to come by.
24:07Well, I wish I could, but I ain't got time
24:09now that my ranch hens have become prospectors,
24:11which is why I'm here.
24:12All right, post the note for some more hens.
24:15I'm sorry.
24:16I know it's hard when people you trust let you down.
24:20You speaking from personal experience?
24:32Maybe you should talk with them again.
24:34There's no point.
24:35I've already given them a piece of my mind.
24:37And don't you ever wonder what's on their mind?
24:39See things from their perspective?
24:47Gotta go. If they don't like my cooking tonight,
24:49they'll never buy it at the boarding house.
24:56What do you think?
25:08What do you think?
25:11How's she doing?
25:12How's she doing?
25:13She's been keeping to herself.
25:15Oh.
25:16Thanks for staying.
25:25Hey, little chickadee.
25:28What's wrong?
25:34You keep trying to leave me behind.
25:37I just went to the trading post.
25:38And yesterday.
25:40At the ranch?
25:40I thought you'd want to stay behind and play with Jenny.
25:42And then today with that girl.
25:44Sarah, what is this about?
25:46You don't want me around.
25:48What?
25:52Sweetheart, this is all for you.
25:56All of this.
25:59Sarah.
26:08I'm going to give you some time.
26:12I'm getting water.
26:45Good afternoon, Olivia.
26:47Good afternoon, Alexander.
26:49So, how's the sketching coming along?
26:53I'm glad you asked.
26:55If the government wants to lure people west,
26:58what better way than to show them our new police force?
27:01Me?
27:02Mm-hmm.
27:02Ooh, nobody wants to see my mug on a poster.
27:07I would.
27:17You keep moving.
27:18It's my horse.
27:20Maybe he doesn't think this is his good side.
27:24So, what did you do before joining the Mounted Police?
27:26I was a tracker for Great Plains Trading Company.
27:29Oh, my late father worked for Great Plains
27:30at the Trading Post in Fort Churchill
27:31before starting his own spot here.
27:34How was it when you first got to the settlement?
27:37Well, it wasn't easy.
27:40We lived in a sod hut, fished in icy waters,
27:43tried to keep it warm during the long winters.
27:45Nothing as exciting as you living in Toronto.
27:47No, that's remarkable.
27:50If you don't mind me saying,
27:52you don't look like the type of person
27:54who lived in a sod hut.
27:57You look...
27:59I look... what?
28:03Nothing. Forget I said it.
28:06It sounds like you've had quite the adventure.
28:08Well, for us, it was more about survival than adventure.
28:11Well, there's no greater adventure than survival on the frontier.
28:21Speaking of survival on the frontier,
28:24that woman over there...
28:26Oh, Rebecca?
28:28She's one of a kind, all right.
28:30She certainly stands out.
28:32Do you know where she's from?
28:38Actually, I don't.
28:56Sarah, can you stand up?
28:57There's something I want to say to you, please.
29:00Please.
29:06You mean everything to me.
29:09Everything.
29:10And I'm so sorry if I did anything to make you feel otherwise.
29:16Please talk to me.
29:19I miss traveling in the wagon with you.
29:22Even though it was so hard?
29:23It was just the two of us.
29:25I liked it that way.
29:27I liked it too.
29:30You don't need me anymore.
29:34You have Lars and Mrs. Quinn to help you.
29:37Sarah, it's good for you to play and have fun.
29:42I thought you'd want to.
29:44Not stick around doing a bunch of grown-up things.
29:47I like doing grown-up things if it's with you.
29:49Well, good.
29:50I like being with you too.
29:53I do.
29:53I do.
29:56I need your help with something now, actually.
29:59With what?
30:00I have to make a sign for my gumbo.
30:02And you have the best handwriting.
30:05Will you help me?
30:07Fine.
30:08All right.
30:12You're stuck with me now, kid.
30:20Great work today, Jeremiah.
30:23I'll see you bright and early tomorrow morning.
30:27Hey, boss.
30:28I recently got engaged.
30:31No kidding.
30:33Congratulations.
30:37What's her name?
30:38Madeline.
30:39She lives in Union City.
30:42She's pretty special.
30:43No.
30:44Not quite sure what she sees in me.
30:46Best just to appreciate your good fortune and not question it.
30:49Yeah.
30:50I just want to give her the best.
30:51I know she deserves it.
30:53As you should.
30:55You've always been good to me, so I want to be up front with you.
30:59I promised I'd build her a nice house with a big porch and a yard for all our little ones.
31:05What's understandable?
31:08It's just, I've heard some prospectors of pulling nuggets out of the stream that are worth more than a month's
31:12wages.
31:12Others are just pulling out pocket change.
31:14I know.
31:15But for Madeline, I mean, I just want a chance to make a life like you did.
31:21I think we all do.
31:32I wish you and the missus great success.
31:36God knows it isn't easy.
31:38Thank you, sir.
31:40I'll finish up here.
31:55Gumbo.
31:56Gumbo for sale.
31:58Would you like some?
32:02Gumbo.
32:02Oh, would you like to try some?

32:10Gumbo.
32:11Would you like to try?
32:12What's that smell?
32:14Hello, Pete.
32:17That's garlic, and it's actually quite flavorful.
32:20Smells like wet socks.
32:24Try it.
32:24You'll love it.
32:26You did say you wanted food that'll stick to your ribs.
32:30This'll do it.
32:32I reckon I'll just stick to my salted pork.
32:37Gumbo.
32:38It'll warm you right up.
32:39It's delicious.
32:41I'm sorry, Mama.
32:42Oh, thanks.
32:45Seems Hattie may have been right about serving people what they're used to.
32:50You know, they'd like it if they'd try it.
32:55Yeah, you're right.
32:59Free samples.
33:03Free samples.

33:34Well, I'm putting big words, Missy.
33:36Back in 49, I had a clam chowder in San Francisco.
33:40Mmm.
33:40This is better.
33:41And it's free.
33:44Would you like to try some gumbo?
33:46Well, you can't beat the price.
33:49Alright, thank you.
33:59Better have some more.
34:02There you go.
34:04Not so bad, huh?
34:07Not so bad at all.
34:09Mm-hmm.
34:10Mm-hmm.
34:11Free samples.
34:14Gumbo.
34:23Hey, thank you.
34:25Enjoy that.
34:27Hope you enjoy it.
34:31There you go.
34:33Enjoy.
34:35Enjoy that, thank you.
34:36Here's what's left, Mama.
34:39Good.
34:40Sarah, you were right.
34:41All they needed was to taste it.
34:45We make a great team.
34:48I love you.
34:49I love you, too.
34:53None of this would mean anything without you.
34:59Looks like your mess tends to real success.
35:03Almost.
35:03I am giving away free food in hopes of enticing them to buy it later.
35:07And at the boarding house.
35:08Oh, I hope so.
35:10I know you're really counting on this.
35:13I will give it a try.
35:19I love you, too.
35:22I love you, too.
35:24I love you, too.
35:28I love you.
35:30I love you, too.
35:38I love you.
35:44Hello, little Ned.
35:44It's good.
35:45I'll be surprised.
35:47It's a real nice, man.
35:50That's great.
35:51It's going.
35:58I wasn't expecting to see you here.
36:01You and me both.
36:03Big opening.
36:04Congratulations.
36:10Here to give them another piece of your mind?
36:13Not this time.
36:21Do you mind the gumbo?
36:25How you doing, boys?
36:27Doing fine, boss.
36:29He's not your boss anymore, because you up and quit.
36:35Are you in luck prospecting?
36:36Found a few flakes.
36:39Most of us did.
36:40And what was that about you? A cup of coffee?
36:45Now, don't get me wrong. I understand why you're doing this.
36:49You want to be your own men.
36:51I can't offer you riches, but...
36:54I can offer you the freedom, the open range,
36:57the satisfaction of an honest day's wage after a hard day's work.
37:02There's no life like a cowboy's life, am I right?
37:08John, there's no better roper than you.
37:12Jeremiah, no one's better at breaking a stallion.
37:17Charlie, it amazes me how quickly you find those strays.
37:21You each bring something special.
37:24I want you to know that I appreciate your skills, and I always have.
37:28But if you want to change course and spend your time hunched over at Tin Pan,
37:32hoping for Lady Luck, you have my blessing.
37:35But if you want to come back,
37:37the stability of a regular job with people who respect you,
37:41I will welcome you with open arms.
37:44And if you do come back,
37:48I'll give you a day off each week to test your luck at the stream.
37:54It's up to you.
37:58Good luck.
37:59It's up to you.
38:16Anyone coming?
38:17Nope.
39:11Oh, good morning, sleepyhead.
39:13I'm surprised you slept through that storm last night.
39:16Well, come help me with these pancakes.
39:19Okay.
39:23Have a good china.
39:25It's not Sunday.
39:26Every day with you is special.
39:28Here, flip this.
39:29Okay.
39:31After we're done making breakfast, we'll go over the Demest tent.
39:34Are we going to give out free samples today?
39:36No, I can't afford that.
39:37What if no one comes?
39:39We have to hope I'm making something extra delicious.
39:45Good.
39:51I finished the sketches I'm going to submit.
39:54Oh.
39:54Do you want to see?
39:55Sure.
40:02I tried to capture the spirit of the frontier.
40:06Images that show both the beauty and the hardship.
40:15You are a real artist.
40:21This next one is my favorite.
40:24Has it all.
40:25Strength.
40:27Compassion.
40:29Grit.
40:29Grit.
40:46I didn't pose for this.
40:49You didn't have to.
40:50Yeah.
40:51I know your face.
40:54I can draw you from memory.
41:00Do you like it?
41:02Oh.
41:06It's nice.
41:13No one is ever going to forget you, Mama.
41:18Not while I'm around.
41:31Oh, these poor people.
41:36Here, sweetie.
41:37Go ahead.
41:39I can help you.
41:47Mama, look.
41:58Oh, no.
42:00It's completely ruined.
42:02It was a bad storm last night, but we've had worse.
42:05I guess the old girl just wasn't up to it.
42:06I'm sorry about your tent, Hattie.
42:09You can't be held responsible for Mother Nature.
42:11Sure.
42:18Well, we won't be serving food, free or otherwise, unless we have a place to eat it.
42:27I'll be back.
42:34Yeah.
42:37Okay.
42:39Go get half our hands from the south pasture.
42:43I'm worried about the cattle.
42:47We'll lose some.
42:49I'll have feed for the rest.
42:51No need.
42:53I figure we'll finish putting up this fence by the end of the week.
42:58I figure you're right.
43:03Jeremiah decides to stay.
43:07I wish him the best.
43:10I want the best for the lot of you.
43:12We know that was.
43:15Let's get to it.
43:26Who's that lady with Mrs. Quinn?
43:34Whoa.
43:36Whoa.
43:37Whoa.
43:37Rebecca.
43:38Sarah.
43:38Meet Phoebe Taylor.
43:40Glad to know you.
43:42I hear you took on the ramshackle.
43:44Anybody who'd go that far against the grain, my kind of people.
43:48What about me?
43:49I've always said you're a sensible businesswoman.
43:51Just don't go soft on me.
43:53Oh, never.
43:53No, it's bad for business.
43:56Phoebe's got wax canvas we can use to patch the tent, at least until we can repair it proper.
44:01Oh, I don't know how to thank you.
44:04Thank me?
44:05Hattie said I'd be getting free meals.
44:07Absolutely any time.
44:09Oh, who knows?
44:09You might even enjoy the company.
44:12Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
44:14Well, it looks like we're back in business.
44:34Remarkable.
44:36Mm-hmm.
44:36One, two.
44:38One, two, three.
44:40Two, three.
44:44One, two, three.
44:57Mm-hmm, yeah, maybe that's all.
45:00There's something.
45:01One, three, two.
45:01One, one, two, three.
45:03One, two, three.
45:04Yeah, you're so happy.
45:04All right, one, two.
