"Previously on "Heartland":" "Even before I met your mom," "I saw her at this colt starting competition." "She used to take me when I was little." "They give three days to gentle an unbroke horse." "The rodeo club tryouts start tomorrow and Rachel and all her friends are really into pole-bending." "And all the girls you wanna get in with are trying out." "No, all the girls you wanna get in with." "My truck!" "How'd you get it back from the repo man?" "All it took was some money." "You and Jake barely talk any more and he still lets you ride his horse?" "Jake's like a little puppy, he'll do anything for me." "You know you should put the poor guy out of his own misery." "Nobody's stopping him from moving on." "All right, so you gotta keep your eye on the prize." " Ohhh!" " Geez." "That was so close!" "Or so far." "Here, it's my turn." "No, no." "Ty, Ty, Ty!" "Come on, I wanna try it again." "Ty!" "Ugh!" "Victor!" "Nice throw!" "Hi, Ty." "Tansi, my girl." "Nice looking colt you have here." "Thanks, Ty and I just started working with him." "Well, I hope you know more about starting colts than you do about roping them." "You heard about this Ring of Fire competition?" "Yeah, the posters are up all over town." "I can't wait to see you work." "Well, you're gonna have to wait a little longer." "Scheduling conflict." "The Phoenix Invitational." "But I gave the Ring of Fire guys your name." "What?" "Me filling in for you." "Are you serious?" "Serious about what?" "I want your sister to take my place at the Horse Palace next weekend." "Really?" "My old friend Pegasus." "Marion and I learned a lot from him." "You know, your mom introduced me to these colt starting contests." "Helped me see beyond my own world." "Victor, I really appreciate you entering me in that contest, but I don't know," "I've just never done anything like that before." "Well, you've worked with a lot of colts." "Yeah." "But..." "I've never given a clinic, or even been in a competition." "There's always a first time, my girl." "And you were in the news a lot this year." "Yeah, the Miracle Girl video." "That was great for awhile." "But..." "The buzz has kinda died down a bit." "Maybe you need some new buzz around here?" "Yeah." "Since the quarantine?" "We could use something." "This is the guy." "He's waiting for your call." "So each trainer's given three one hour sessions spread over three days, in front of a... judges and an audience." "Three days?" "We've been working with this guy for almost a week, and we just got the saddle on him now." "Yeah, well..." "This isn't a competition." "Yeah, well maybe we're going to slow." "I mean, if guys like Victor can do it in three hours, why can't we, right?" "Do you remember what happened with Harley?" "Did you forget?" "No." "But that was me." "Come on, I had no clue what I was doing, Amy." "Come on, give it a shot." "What's the worst that could happen?" "Just give it a try." "Okay." "Good boy." "Whoa..." "Whoa..." "Good boy." "Whoa, good boy." "So far so good." " Yeah." " See?" "Good boy." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, easy!" "Whoa!" "Easy!" "Easy, easy!" "Ungh!" "Amy!" "♪" "♪" "♪ And at the break of day you sank into ♪" "♪ your dream, ♪" "♪ you dreamer. ♪" "♪ You dreamer, ♪" "♪ you dreamer. ♪" "Okay, I don't know about you guys, but I want a buckle." "So, I think we should rent the arena out for Saturday morning." "Um, yeah, sure, Mallory." "But, uh..." "There's this mall opening in Calgary, and we were planning to go, my cousin said we could stay at her house." "That sounds great!" "Well, that's the thing." "My mom said no." "Well, I could get my mom to talk to your mom?" "Well, it's just kind of complicated because..." "We were hoping you could cover for us, so we could tell Jamie's parents we were staying at your place." "And give them your cell number, so in case they wanted to call..." "And what am I'm supposed to say, you're busy?" "Busy going to Calgary without me?" "Maybe I'm busy too." "Check it out, huh." "At this rate, I'll be benching 200 pounds in a couple of weeks." "Great!" "Then maybe you can carry this one too?" "Yeah." "Yeah, once I get my upper body strength back, gonna ease back into the timed events." "Aren't you forgetting something?" "No, I'm thinking that's everything." "No, it's not." "I got your truck back, I helped you move and you still haven't apologized for the way that you treated me!" "Come on, Ash." "You know that wasn't me." "It was the accident, pills, okay, maybe my personal hygiene left a little to be desired." "And you forgot the drinking." "Okay, that's the past." "I gotta look to the future now." "Get back in shape, and get on the rodeo circuit." "So where does that leave us?" "Same place we were before all this stuff happened." "And what was that?" "Remind me?" "See, that's what I'm talking about, baby!" "You know, bookings at the dude ranch are way down." "This Ring of Fire thing?" "This is a big deal, free publicity, it's gonna be good for all of us." "And it would be a good experience." "I mean, come on, Amy, it looks like fun." "Yeah, 'cause screwing up in front of hundreds of people sounds like fun?" "I'm with Amy." "Three days to gentle a colt?" "That is not the horse business." "That is show business." "No, Jack." "It's just business." "Dad's right." "You know, this equine market is exploding - equi-fairs selling equi-products and equi-services." "Okay, Lou, but I have to feel good about this in order to do it and right now I don't." "But, Amy, you're gonna end up doing this sort of thing sooner or later." "And this is almost perfect for ya." "That's right." "Hometown crowd." "Lots of support." "Your friends and your family cheering you on." "And you're better looking than the guys that do it." "All I'm saying is, we can't keep thinking about this like the family farm." "You know, last time I checked, this being a family farm wasn't necessarily a bad thing." "Great, no pressure at all." "Hey." "Look, obviously this is your decision, okay." "I guess I was a little..." "Yeah, I know." "Even more so than usual." "Lou, what is going on?" "Nothing." " Are you sure?" "'Cause you've been a bit" " Well, how would you feel if you were spending your anniversary alone?" "Anniversary for what?" "Me and Peter!" "It's our one year anniversary!" "Wow." "It just..." "Seems like it hasn't been that long." "Yeah, because we never spend any time together!" "I mean, it's my one year anniversary this weekend!" "And who am I spending it with?" "A bunch of horses!" "Yeah." "Hey." "Where're you taking Shorty?" "Well, back home." "Aw, I'm sorry." "But I seriously gotta work on my roping." "What about pole bending?" "I don't have a horse." "Hey, no worries, sweetheart." "You're in the rodeo club now." "One of your friends will lend you a horse." "Yeah." "I guess." "Well, I probably could've gotten Rachel to let you borrow a horse, but she's mad at me now." "Why?" "Because of me?" "I promised her you'd cover for us!" "Before you even asking me?" "Look." "Rachel has lots of friends." "I'm new." "And I'm easily replaced." "You mean, because I wouldn't lie for you?" "Aw come on, Mallory!" "Okay, you guys are just gonna ditch me anyway!" "How's that supposed to make me feel?" "We were going to ask you to come!" "Just..." "Next time, for sure." "I promise." "Please?" "Good morning, Soraya, can I get a cup of coffee, please?" "Yeah, sure." "Might as well get a refill for my buddy Jack." "Refills are free, Mr. Fleming." "Oh that's right." "If you're feeling generous," "I wouldn't mind a piece of pie." "You forgot to mention you had a pretty big payday at the track..." "Lightning Dexter by a nose." "Anyway, you should be buying your own pie." "This Ring of Fire thing, it's gonna be a game changer for all of us, not just Amy." "Now hold on." "She still hasn't decided." "And I'm still not sure it's the right thing for her." "How come you didn't squawk when Marion did it?" "'Cause it was different then." "Before it got all commercialized." "Now it's all about the money." "Well some people think that's a good thing, Jack." "What else you wanna talk about?" "Nothing." "You know, there's about a thousand reasons why horses buck." "And Mom seems to know how to handle every one of them." "Yeah, look at this." "Wrong saddle." "Sore back." "Cinch strap too tight." "Heh." "Barking dog." "Ty." "I think this might it." ""Whatever you teach the horse from the right side, you have to teach from the left as well."" "Make sure he's looking at you." "Whoa..." "Good boy." "Hey." "Good." "Okay, we might as well try it from the other side." "Mm-hm." "See what he's doing?" "I'd say he's pretty chill." "Yeah, at least one of us is." "Ooh..." "Hey." "You took the fall last time." "It's my turn, okay." "Ty, if I can't do this here," "I don't know why I'd even be thinking about..." "So you are thinking about it?" "The Ring of Fire?" "I don't know." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, easy." "Hey." "Okay." "It's one thing for you to get on a colt in the round pen of our yard." "It's a totally different thing for me to get on one in some big competition." "I got something to show you." "I came here on calls a couple of times with Scott." "That's when he showed it to me." "Marion Fleming, 1995 winner, colt starting challenge." "Wow." "She does look like she can fly, huh?" "Yeah." "Come on." "There's something else I wanna show you." "♪" "♪" "You can do this, Amy." "You're amazing." "You gotta let the whole world know." "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tenth Annual Ring of Fire!" "Over the next three days, three renowned trainers will race against the clock to form a bond between horse and human." "And transform unbroken colts into lifelong equine partners." "And now, let's welcome our reigning champion, the Western legend..." "Garret McDuff." "Garret's an old hand at the Ring of Fire." "He's won more colt starting competitions than I can count." "Garret's natural horsemanship techniques are famous the world over." "Oh, uh... didn't know we were supposed to put on a show." "Maybe he's the only guy that does it." "And now our second trainer, and I'm sure he's gonna put the fire into the Ring of Fire..." "Here comes Chase Powers!" "Chase's shoot from the hip style just might win him the Ring of Fire grand prize, a brand new pick-up truck." "I gotta do something!" "Come on, Ty, come and help me." "Well, you knew her mom, and you watched her grow up, you've seen her on the Internet, and she stepped in at the last minute to help us out," "Hudson's own Miracle Girl..." "Amy Fleming!" "And look at her go, no first time jitters for this girl." "She's riding bareback!" "No saddle, no hands!" "Yes!" "Nice looking little friend you got there." "Miracle Girl?" "We'll see about that." "Hey!" "Come on, Caleb, we're gonna miss Amy." "Yeah, uh..." "Thing is, I kinda got some stuff to do." "I know, I should've called, but..." "But you didn't." "Is that what you meant when you said you wanted things to go back to the way they were?" "And what is this?" "Pro rodeo association?" "I gotta get my entry form done." "Look, I can't miss the entry dates." "I got Abilene on the 13th." "And Bay City on the 23rd..." "What?" "That's less than a month from now." "Yeah well, that's why I gotta get it done." "Oh?" "And what am I supposed to do?" "Sit at home because of your stupid rule, meanwhile everyone knows there's tons of girls on the circuit." "Whoa, Ash, okay." "It's barrel-racers, it's other guys' wives." "And buckle bunnies." "Look, Ashley, come on." "You know I would never ever, ever cheat on you." "Oh." "And I'm supposed to be happy my boyfriend's not cheating on me while he's away for months at a time?" "And what do I get out of it?" "Besides a huge cell phone bill?" "I just thought it'd be cool if we could enjoy being back together for a bit, but that's... just fantastic." "Well, as Garret knows very well, that clock started ticking the second he stepped into the ring, and this old cowboy, he's not wasting any time." "Three days, three colts." "Saddle an unbroke horse." "Ride it and take it through an obstacle course." "Our outstanding panel of judges will be scoring a number of different elements in every round pen session, and even they don't know who the winner's gonna be until those points are all tallied up." "Well, folks, I, uh..." "Hope you aint' expecting nothing fancy here today." "'Cause, uh, I'm just an old fashioned cowboy and I ain't about to change my ways." "These colts, of course, have had minimal human contact." "They will be seeing a saddle for the very fist time." "And the first saddling often is kinda crucial as far as the rest of the development of the horse goes." "He's pretty good..." "He's too good." "And fast." "Too fast." " Dad, wha" " Excuse me." "Just watch while Garret workswith the horse." "So, what do you think?" "Well, he's got a kind eye, but I've gotta make sure I don't give him any mixed signals." "You see the way his ears go?" "Yeah." "It means he's energetic and a little hot." "Hey!" "Dad!" "What're you doing back here?" "I'm just trying to get a read on the colt I've drawn." "Well, you should be out there watching what that old cowboy." "Dad, come on." "Listen, I've seen a million of these things." "'Kay, it's not the horse, it's the time." "And you're wasting yours." "How're you doing, Ty?" "Tim." "Tell us what your doing, Garret." "Well, you know," "I'm probably pushing things here a little today, but, aw shucks, that's the way I've always done it." "And you know..." "You gotta stick with what you do, because what you done got you to where you're at." "I like him." "You know, a lot of times when I was a kid we didn't have all day to go get the cows, so we had to kinda do things in a hurry and I guess that's where I kinda learned my ways." "Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't." "Some people will take a week to get a saddle on a horse for the first time." "Garret's not gonna take that kinda time." "He just going right after him here." "Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't." "Lou?" "How long has he been in there?" "15 minutes." "But it was a long 15 minutes." "Yeah, and I'm going to hate you for a long time." "You just never know..." "What's gonna happen." "Well, shoot..." "Well, it looks like it might be my lucky day." "There's no fireworks here yet." "Whoa, easy, whoa!" "Looks like this horse is starting to get used to me." "Garret has saddled and ridden his horse in the first session." "He set that bar pretty high." "Tell Amy I threw in some onion rings for good luck." "Thanks, Soraya." "Hi, Mrs. Baker." "Uh, no sorry." "Jamie's actually in the shower right now." "Hey, Mallory, how's it going?" "No, there's no boys here." "He's just a family friend and he's leaving." "Yeah, totally, call anytime, you're not interrupting anything." "Okay, bye." "Sorry, that was..." "Two-minute warning, Chase." "Two minutes left." "Now folks, you might think my methods are a bit unorthodox..." "I think I'm just gonna spend the rest of my time here relaxing after an honest day's work." "Anybody got a beer?" "If that horse can take Chase's weight, the saddle should be no problem." "Look, uh..." "I know this is your first time, and, uh... sorry if I'm a tough act to follow." "But maybe you should've thought of that before you signed up?" "Chase." "Cut her some slack." "Just helping out the new kid, Garret." "Don't worry about that guy." "Just think about what you gotta do." "You'll be just fine, okay?" "Okay." "Perfect." "Well, Amy is not the first woman we've had out here, her mother took that honour, several years ago as many of you might remember." "She is however the youngest trainer we've ever had." "But don't let that fool you, she's a real contender." "Amy." "Could you tell us just a little bit about what it is you're doing?" "Well, horses are naturally curious animals." "So, I chase him around a bit, and now I'm hoping he'll follow me." "Yeah well, she better hurry it up." "Dad!" "Whoa, whoa." "Whoa." "Good boy." "And there he goes." "Not sure if he's ready for this yet, but we'll give it a go." "Amy, you've spent a lot of time on ground work, hope it pays off." "What's this?" "Good boy." "Amy;" "Hm, what's that?" "Good boy, what's that, huh?" "Well, maybe I, uh..." "I rushed things a little..." "Amy, I hate to tell you this, but your time is up." "All right, well, um..." "You know, I like to leave things on a good note, but I guess we'll have to deal with what we got." "On the bright side I made a little bit of progress, and, uh..." "And I found out a good name for him when he started bucking there..." "I think I'm gonna call him Crackerjack." "That was really good." "You could see at the end he was starting to trusted you." "Ty, I want to go home." "Take me home, okay." "Hey." "Hey." "What's up?" "I don't know what to do." "You know..." "I just feel like I'm outta my league." "I tried to speed things up like those other guys, and it just... it fell apart." "And... my mind went blank." "I don't-- Tomorrow?" "Well, you're not thinking about quitting are you?" "It just isn't working out." "I did this because Mom did this, and..." "I thought it would be different." "You know, Garret, he's way ahead, and that Chase guy, he hates me." "Come on, Amy." "It's about you and that colt in the round pen, and you've done that a million times." "I know, it's just..." "I keep thinking like I have to switch it up or something." "No, don't even go there, okay?" "It's like..." "like Garret said:" ""You gotta stick to what you do because what you've done..."" ""Has got you to where you're at."" "I know." "It's only the start of day two and Garret has already taken his horse a long way." "Well, look at that, no fireworks." "You know, I'll take that any day." "Garret, the problem is, you're making this look way too easy." "You know, folks, this might make a pretty nice rope horse." "Garret, haven't you won enough of these things already?" "Garret McDuff, ladies and gentlemen." "We'll take a brief intermission." "Jake, what happened to you yesterday?" "Nothing." "I just figured you were talking to that guy." "Badger?" "No, I wasn't." "You gotta be kidding." "Maybe you should answer the darn phone." "Fine, I will." "Hey, Badger." "Chase is halfway through his second session and the colt's saddled, but if a horse is gonna be safe to ride, he's gonna be exposed to a lot of scary objects through his lifetime." "It looks to me like Chase Powers is trying to expose this colt to some things that might scare him." "What're you gonna do about that, huh?" "What're you gonna do about that?" "Under a minute left, Chase." "Now what're you doing?" "All right, don't worry, folks, took the chain off." "Basic idea is the same." "You wanna scare him all you can now..." "So that he's not scared later, when your wife's riding him down the road." "What's he trying to prove?" "I don't know." "But..." "Feel sorry for whoever gets that colt next." "Where's Amy going?" "I gotta talk to her." "Grampa, go after him." "Yeah, yeah." "Chase Powers!" "Wooo!" "Hate to say it, Chase, but that clock has run out of gas." "Tim, what the hell do you think you're doing?" "I want my daughter to win this thing." "Can't you just leave her be?" "Why is her winning so important to you?" "Jack, you know I have my girls' best interest at heart." "But I have dreams, too, and right now my dream is sitting in a stall, every day, taking it one step closer to its best before date." "What are you going on about now?" "California." "There's a dozen tracks down there" "I can make a fortune at this winter." "I got a very limited window of opportunity." "California... that's good." "You're hoping she wins so you can ease your conscience about leaving her again?" "Peter!" "Hey, baby." "Hey!" "Where are you?" "Are you still in Dubai?" "Yeah, I just thought i'd give you a call and say happy anniversary." "Yeah, happy anniversary to you, too." "Hey, did you get the roses I sent?" "You sent roses to here?" "To the arena?" "Yeah!" "What, you don't see them?" "They should be there right now." "No, I don't..." "Baby, I don't see anything." "Are you sure?" "'Cause you might just be looking the wrong way, Lou." "Oh my God." "Excuse me." "Can I... sorry." "I'm-I'm so sorry." "Excuse me, excuse me." "Thank you." "Baby!" "Oh!" "Oh, you're crushing the roses." "Who cares about the roses?" "!" "I can't believe you're here!" "I know." "It's just actually the thorn's actually in my hand." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Sorry!" "Sorry." "You okay?" "Yeah." "Sorry." "I can't believe you're here." "I know." "I haven't slept for 36 hours," "I don't know what time zone I'm in, but I hope I got the right day." "You did." "You got it right." "Baby." "My mother always said that you gotta teach from both sides of the horse:" "The thinking side and the reaction side." "Well, Amy, it looked like yesterday you were losing ground, but whatever you've done since then, it looks like now you've got Crackerjack's attention right where it belongs, and that's on you." "Yeah." "Let's just hope he's using his thinking side today." "Whoa." "Whoa." "That's a good boy." "Good boy." "Good boy." "Yes!" "Yes, she's done like dinner!" "Oh man, it looked so promising, but I guess there's always tomorrow." "Ready to go?" "No, um..." "You should go." "I'm gonna stay with this guy and see if I'm missing something." "You need any help?" "No." "This is something I should do on my own." "Thanks." "Okay." "He wants you to be his girlfriend, but he won't tell you what that means?" "He can't." "I mean, it's no wonder he's in 8-second events;" "That's as long as he can think about anything." "I, uh, hope you're still open for business." "People tell me this is the best place in town." "This is the only place in town." "Chase Powers." "Ashley, uh..." "I didn't see you down at the horse palace, and I would've noticed." "I was supposed to go with my boyfriend, but he was kind of busy." "I suppose he's also too busy to take you out on a Saturday night?" "No, it's just that I'm working." "Well, if I was your boyfriend," "I'd be worried you might run into some world famous horse trainer looking to show a pretty girl like you a good time." "Yeah, he should be worried." "Must be a real jerk if he doesn't realize what he's got." "You know what?" "He is a jerk." "And... you're right." "If he's too stupid to figure it out, then I'm gonna figure it out for him." "Ashley?" "!" "Ashley, not now, please!" "Where're you going?" "You haven't even taken my order yet." "Chase Powers." "Hi." "Please tell me you're gonna stick around long enough to get me something to eat?" "Yeah, sure." "What can I get you?" "That's what I'm talking about." "Service with a smile." "And I don't just smile at anyone." "Ash." "I thought you were working late tonight." "Yeah, I was." "But if I'm your girlfriend, then why am I working at a diner on a Saturday night?" "I don't know." "I mean, I guess you could always ask for another shift" "You like paella, right?" "I love it." "Champagne?" "I love that too." "Cheers." "Thanks." "I will be right back." "I love you." "Hold that thought..." "Right there." "I'm back." "Peter?" "Hey there." "Hey." "You know..." "I used to be just like you." "But nowadays, I just let whatever happens happen." "Yeah, but I know what's gonna happen." "I'm gonna get on him and he's gonna throw me off." "They only buck 'cause they're scared." "Yeah, but I'm no bronc rider." "I can't..." "He..." "He ain't no bronc." "He'll give it up quick." "And when he does, he's gonna do anything you want." "Okay, but..." "Well, if you're right, you may have just helped me win." "Well, here's the deal, Amy." "I win another one of these, who gives a damn?" "But you win, now that's news." "Okay." "But..." "Look, this is my first competition." "'Kay, I've barely even got one foot in the stirrup." "Aren't you that Miracle Girl?" "Everybody wants to see a miracle, and I know you can do it." "Hey, buddy." "Hey." " Hey." " Hey." "Sorry, must've dozed off." "Yeah." "What happened to the paella?" "I ate it, in a pretty dress." "You slept through the whole night." "Oh man, I'm sorry." "I..." "These flights are killing me." "This can't be right?" "What time is it here?" "Is it 9:47?" "Yup." "You looked like you could use a little extra sleep." "I wish." "Honey, I have a..." "I got a meeting in Calgary at..." "Oh." "Well, it's good thing you slept in your clothes." "Oh man, um..." "You're not mad, are you?" "No." "No, of course not." "You sure?" "'Cause if you are, you know, I can probably just..." "No you couldn't, so could just go..." "Before I do get mad." "Thanks." "Thanks." "Tell Amy I said good luck, okay?" "Mm-hm." "It's okay, you can take care of him?" "Yeah." "Love you." "Love you, too." "Well, folks, we're about to find out who's gonna walk away with this year's Ring of Fire championship!" "Not to mention that brand new truck." "The judges are watching closely." "Garret still has lots of time left." "Now his horse has gotta drag a pole, just like one day he'll be dragging a calf to a branding fire." "Here's a tricky one." "It looks simple, but a horse has really gotta trust his rider before he'll put one foot on that wooden bridge." "Let's not jinx him, folks." "He's not done yet." "We don't want his head to swell up just yet, huh?" "He's being real nice though." "Let's see how he likes it when you swing that slicker over your shoulder." "Whoa... easy." "Whoa..." "You know I could push it, folks, but I think it's best for this horse if I call it a day, and we'll let the young ones have a go at it." "Thank you." "So, I guess that's it for Garret McDuff, ever the gentlemen." "Sometimes you get, sometimes you get got." "Give us a few minutes while we get ready for our next competitor." "You'll be great." "You know, I think I might've made a mistake." "Yeah, no kidding." "Walking out on me last night, you're lucky I didn't fire you." "No, I mean about Caleb." "Why?" "Did you guys get into another fight or something?" "No." "It's the opposite." "He was really sweet, and no offence, but it was way more fun spending Saturday night with him than working the late shift here." "So, what was the mistake?" "He's leaving again for the rodeo and..." "I just don't think that I can handle that." "Okay." "I promise, no matter what happens," "I'm never gonna make you work the Saturday shift again." "Thanks." "Looks like Chase is getting it done out there;" "He's not taking any nonsense from that horse." "Come on, let's go." "Well, Chase Powers has completed the obstacle course in record time, and it looks for extra points he's gonna try and load his colt in the trailer." "Come on!" "Get in there!" "Good!" "Come on!" "All right, now I know this doesn't look too pretty, but it's not about me, it's not about the show, it's about the horse." "And I know if I let him get away with this, whoever ends up owning him's gonna have a problem horse for life." "Chase, I think that horse is trying to tell you something." "Come on!" "What can I say, folks?" "The colt's got a problem." "I guess that wraps it up for Chase Powers." "You'll be fine." "Okay?" "You stuck with what you know, and that's getting the horse to trust you." "Yeah." "Okay?" "I can do this." "Hey." "I may've screwed up at the trailer;" "That was just a bonus." "I've won with a lot less." "Why don't you get lost, man?" "No, Ty, it's okay." "It's okay." "He just knows he blew it and that I'm gonna kick his ass out there." "And now, ladies and gentlemen, our third Ring of Fire trainer," "Amy Fleming!" "Go get 'em!" "So, Amy, what's your plan today?" "Okay." "Those phone calls?" "They weren't from Badger." "I've gotten to know this guy a lot better and..." "Okay, I mean, the first one wasn't from Badger." "It was from Jamie's mom." "Jamie wanted to go to Calgary with her friends, so I kind of said I'd lie for her..." "It's just a big mess." "Basically, all I wanted was someone to lend me a pole-bending horse." "Why didn't you ask me?" "My sister's horse is perfect." "He can pole-bend, barrel race..." "He can even goat tie." "All right, Crackerjack, see all these nice people?" "There's nothing to worry about." "Why is she taking so much time leading that damn horse around?" "Will you settle down, for crying out loud!" "She's gonna do what she's gonna do." "I know you like to work at your own pace, Amy, but the minutes are ticking by." "Yeah." "Thanks for the reminder." "This is something I like to do with all my jumpers." "I like to show them everything from the ground so they can see it from all sides." "It's not as scary;" "They can see that I'm not scared of it, so it shouldn't be that bad." "Eh, eh, easy!" "Easy." "It's all right." "Well, folks, uh..." "That wasn't too bad, and I've got a feeling there isn't gonna be any more where that came from." "Whoa... good boy." "Not so scary, huh?" "Not so scary." "Good boy." "Good boy." "That's a brave boy." "Good boy." "Well, that was easier than expected." "Whoa..." "Ladies and gentlemen, this is my tenth Ring of Fire competition and I've seen some trainers come from behind, but this is something else." "Look, I'll go in first." "No big deal." "Look at that, folks." "She did it!" "You've still got a couple of minutes left, Amy..." "I don't really know what else to do, but..." "My boyfriend Ty over there by the gate, he reminded me that there is a picture of my mom when you... when you walk in the front of this building, and when she did this competition years ago," "uh, this is what she did, so I'm gonna give it a try..." "This is for you, Mom." "Yeah!" "I just thought you should know, whichever way this goes, you don't have to let the fact you're working for me get in the way of your big dreams." "What are you saying, Jack?" "I'm fired?" "All I'm saying is, go to California with that damn racehorse of yours and see if I care." "Hey." "You do like me." "Yeah, about as much as a broken leg." "Are you still mad at me?" "Well, we'll see." "Honey, I knew you could do it." "I didn't doubt you for a second." "Yeah, it was all we could do to keep him from jumping in the ring to give you a hand." "Ty, good job, buddy." "She couldn't have done it without you." "Oh, I don't know about that." "I think she could have." "Grampa..." "I admit it, I, uh..." "I wasn't sold on this idea, but you..." "You did so good." "How's it going, Ash?" "Come on, get in here already." " What's wrong?" " Nothing." "I just..." "Okay..." "I'm in love with you." "How is that a problem?" "That's pretty much the best news I've ever heard." "How is that a problem?" "Because I'm never gonna fit into your life, Caleb." "I'm not a barrel racer, a buckle bunny, and being your stay-at-home girlfriend isn't gonna work." "Yeah, but..." "I love you and you love me." "I mean..." "Babe, we can work this out." "Maybe now." "But eventually, you're gonna break my heart." "And the longer I wait, the more it's gonna hurt, so..." "I'm gonna save us both the trouble and break my own heart." "Please, just think about it, Ashley, I'm begging you." "Goodbye, Caleb." "Ashley!"

"The hometown favourite, your very own Miracle Girl, Amy Fleming!" "♪ I am unbreakable ♪" "Wooo!" "Yeah, Amy!" "♪ I am unbreakable ♪" "Congratulations!" "You know, I told you you're a natural."
