"d":" "Hey, you're okay." "Good boy." "This is my trailer." "I'm movin' back in!" "Not likely, cowboy Bob!" "I got nowhere to stay but in my truck." " You can bunk in the loft." " Really?" "I am gonna do whatever it takes to get him out of my loft!" "We could set him up with Ashley." "With or without Ashley, he is goin' back to that trailer." "Val!" "I-I wanted to talk to you." "I've reconsidered, and I think I'd like to sell you the property." "Okay, I'll think about it." "What?" "May not make economic sense for me at this time." "You are not gonna believe this!" "It's already had almost 3,000 hits!" ""Miracle girl?"" "You're famous." "Just, I have a zillion new emails." "I don't know how I'm gonna do this." "Good boy." "Good boy!" " Hey!" " Hey, how's it going?" "Great!" "It's awesome what he can do, once you've freed up his head." "I could use, uh, 15 more minutes, though." "You don't got it." "Okay, who's next?" "Come on!" "What's wrong with this guy?" "That's Roxie." "He's barn sour." "If it was up to him, he'd never come out of his stall." "If it were up to me, he'd hang out in there all day!" "Well, just leave him." "I'll take care of it." "You come walk this guy out." "I mean, I can put up with the snoring, and his dirty clothes all over the place." "But his broken-hearted cowboy routine, night after night, I can't stand it!" "Wow!" "I never knew you had such a cold, cold heart." "Well, neither did I, until..." "Hey!" "Where is everybody?" "I better get out of here." "Yeah, okay." "Where's he going?" "To round up the other horses." "But I thought I was the horse-rounding-up guy." "Yeah, well, today, you're the goin'-into-town guy." "Grampa's gotta do a supply run at Maggie's." "Here, Mallory." "Is Ash working today?" "How should I know?" "Barn sour, huh?" "Once they're settled in, that's just about that." "That's funny, coming from someone who moved into the barn on a strictly temporary basis, and has ignored all the hints about cramping people's style, and taking up a lot of space." "Not to mention hogging my favourite frozen bagels!" "Those are frozen?" "I figure I can pick up a few fence panels, and tack up a couple pens behind the barn." "If things keep up this way, we might need a whole new barn, too." "Tell that to your father." "The way he's throwing money around these days..." "Grampa..." "It all starts with that herd of cows, now that fancy new phone he got for Amy." "Why not a new barn?" "You know, you lent him the money." "You can't really tell him how to spend it." "Yeah, heard it all before one too many times." "Morning, Jack." "Yeah, fine, thanks." "Hey, Jack!" "What's with him?" "Not really a morning person." "So..." "This one was..." "Hit by a car, uh, that one was freaked out by a lightning strike, and this one is..." "Ahhhh!" "Mouthy." "Thanks for the warning!" "Dad, we are so crowded," "I'm keeping horses in the jumping ring." "I mean, it's like everyone who saw that YouTube video hit on the exact same solution:" "Amy." "You gotta seize this moment!" "Well, that's what we're trying to do, Dad." "I mean, so far, Amy can manage all these horses." "But the problem is," "I can keep up with all these out-of-towners who wanna book places at the dude ranch," " so..." " Honey, expansion." "Expansion." "That's what I'm talking about." " Right." " Look..." "Excuse me?" "Hi, I'm Kate, and this is my daughter, Taylor." "We're looking for Amy Fleming?" "Uh..." "Kate Kennedy?" "Mm-hm." "Oh, I'm sorry." "You didn't get my e-mail." "I got it." "And I realize this is kind of a long shot." "I-I just didn't think that we could wait six weeks for an opening." "Uh..." "I know, I'm sorry." "We're totally booked up right now." "See, Mom?" "I told you it was stupid for us to come." "It's been a very long drive." "If Amy could just take a look at Taylor's horse, then I-I would..." "You know, I'm sure that Amy'd be happy to do that." "I'm Tim Fleming." "I'm Amy's dad." "This is my daughter, Lou Fleming." " Hi." " Hi." "Hey, you got Roxie out of the barn." "Better yet, I got Caleb to go with Grampa." "And Ash's on the breakfast shift?" "They'll at least have to talk, right?" "I never knew you were such a sneaky little..." "There's lots of things you don't know about me." " Who is it?" " Lou." "We gotta get back." "Talk about timing, huh?" "It's like she knows." "Um, I'm kind of booked up today." "Can you maybe have them come back another time?" "Yeah, obviously I tried." "But Dad had other ideas." " Uh, Kate?" " Hi." " Amy Flemming." "I know, I sound like such a fan," "I just can't believe I'm meeting you in person!" "I swear, she must've seen that video like a thousand times when she first got out of the hospital." "There was an accident." "Her horse, Trooper, he's always been so perfect, and then, one day, he just bolted and..." "I-I'm not so sure that's such a good idea!" "No, he seems fine." "Whoa, whoa!" "Whoa!" "Watch it!" "No!" "Ahh!" "Taylor!" "Come here." "I'm okay, Mom." " You're safe!" " Okay." "♪" "♪" "♪ And at the break of day ♪" "♪ you sank into your dream, ♪" "♪ you dreamer. ♪" "♪ Oh, oh, oh... ♪" "♪ you dreamer, ♪" "♪ you dreamer. ♪" "Well, he seems pretty calm now." "Don't worry, I got the gate." "Hey, boy." "Hm!" "So far, so good." "Good boy!" "Yeah!" "I know..." "Come on!" "Good boy!" "Come on!" "Come on." "He seems like a pretty well-broke horse." "What about the way he lunged at that little girl?" "You ever seen that before?" "I don't know." "Only with abused horses." "By a ten-year-old?" "Never underestimate the ten-year-old girl." "I still have nightmares about those parties in grade five!" "Well, maybe you could do me a favour, Mallory." "Get to know the girl who owns this horse, find out what she's like, what her relationship with Trooper is." "Well, do you mean, like..." "A friend?" "Or a spy?" "How about just someone who's trying to help?" "Hmm?" "Her name's Taylor." "All right." "Oh..." "Oh, this is wonderful, Lou!" "I'm so glad you could squeeze us in." "Oh, you know, what's a couple days, right?" "I told the next guest we had an overflow problem." "They thought I was talking about the outhouse, but..." "If our life didn't suck so thoroughly right now, this would be like a dream vacation." "My daugher's just been going through a lot lately." "Hey!" "I saw Amy riding your horse today." "She said he was amazing." "Amy said that?" "Yeah, and she would know." "Uh... so is that your horse?" "Sort of." "He's half my horse." "His name's Copper." "He has his own Facebook page." "Wow." "All my friends do it." "It's sorta just us, though, but we take our horses' names..." "Why don't I add you as a friend, and I can hook you up with all my horse friends." "I could hook you up with my horse friends, too!" "Um... but I'm not sure if I'm still gonna even have a horse." "I mean, I think he really hates me." "No way." "We were just like normal..." "And then he went totally berserk and ran like a maniac until I couldn't stay on anymore." "Did you hurt yourself?" "Are you kidding?" "I was in the hospital like, forever." "Well, don't worry." "Amy can fix any horse." "It's like she knows what they're thinking." "Like a mind reader?" "Do you think..." "Maybe she knows what I'm thinking too?" "Hey, uh... you uh..." "feel like havin' a coffee?" "No." "Then, go get me one." "I just can't get a break today." "How you doing, Val?" "Oh, you know." "I just wanna make sure that you understand," "Tim sells you that piece of land," "I'm glad to have you as a neighbour, on both sides." "Well." "Never thought I'd hear that comin' out of your lips, Jack." "Ah, I don't think you've been talking to Tim, though." "In this economy, it doesn't make sense to develop acreages." "So you're not buying?" "No." "Nobody's buying." "But surely you're not worried about anything, are you?" "I hear Heartland's business is booming." "Yeah..." "But this isn't a business issue, Val." "It's a..." "an ex-son-in-law issue." "Right." "Look who's sitting in your section." "Can't you take it?" "I'm on break." "Just one coffee to go." "Please." "Oh!" "You know, I think you missed the glass." "And I think you missed the point." "And I think you're insane if you think a little bit of cold water is gonna get rid of me." "Oh, I'm not trying to get rid of you," "I just wanna remind you what a cold shower feels like." "You know, when the water heater's broken, and no one bothers to fix it?" "!" "Jeez!" "So, how's the coffee comin'?" "Coming right up, Jack." "You know, it's my damn trailer!" "And she's living there rent-free!" "A-a-and I'm supposed to feel guilty 'cause little miss princess doesn't have hot water!" "Yeah, but you know Ashley, man." "You gotta keep talkin' to her if you want any sort of relationship with her." "Relationship?" "There is no relationship!" "I..." "I just want my damn trailer back." "She's trying to make a point, man." "Yeah?" "And what would that point be?" "Because apparently, I just keep missing it!" "The point is you're a jerk!" "You lied to her." "You took her mom's money, and now you won't even fix her water heater." "Just keep it up, man." "You're never gonna get your trailer back." "Set another place." "Dad has invited himself for dinner." "What, now I'm feeding him too?" "He says he's got big plans on how to expand the dude ranch." "The problem is," "Dad's plans always end up costing more than I can afford." "Yeah, well, more than he can afford too, considering." "Grampa, you gotta promise me, no matter what he says..." "I'm staying out of it." "Okay." "Motorhomes." "Motorhomes!" "Motorhomes?" "Yeah." "To solve Lou's accommodation problem." "Dad, you mean, like, trailers?" "Nothing like trailers to solve an accommodation problem." "I talked to the guy at a dealership, right?" "Their sales are down, they're overstocked, we'd be doing him a favour taking these." "Now, it's not a perfect solution, but who knows how big this thing can get?" "You can do books, DVDs, clinics." "There are a million different ways to make money off this horse whispering thing." "Dad, please don't call it that, it makes me feel weird." "But I'm just saying, some strategically placed motorhomes around the lake, would triple your revenue, Lou." "You know, a man wants to turn his own ranch into a suburb." "It doesn't surprise me that he wants to turn my ranch into a trailer park." "But I'm not getting involved." "You know, that's-that's too bad, Jack." "'Cause you know how I value your opinion." "Excuse me, everyone." "I'm sorry, Lou." "But has anyone seen Taylor?" "Taylor!" "Taylor!" "I just don't want you to get hurt by that horse again!" "No!" "Mom!" "I'm not stupid, Mom!" "I remember what happened." "But I miss him so much!" "He's my best friend." "I just wanted to be near him." "Come here." "Oh, baby." "Trust me, she's nobody's baby." "What do you want?" "What?" "Hey, girl!" "Aren't you done yet?" "You know, I just started, and..." "I'd really like to make sure this is tight." "Well, could you hurry it up?" "I'd like you to be gone before I leave for school." "You know, uh... when I'm done," "I could take a look at the roof, maybe do something about the window screens?" "Uh, yeah." "Whatever." "Just put Nikki back inside and lock up before you go." "What do you mean, you're going to school?" "It's a school day." "Yeah, so what am I supposed to do?" "Watch your horse!" "Watch him do what?" "Eat, sleep, drink, whatever he does." "All right?" "Here." "Take notes, draw pictures." "I expect a full report when I get back." "That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard." "Do you keep Trooper in a boarding stable?" "Yeah, like everybody does." "Yeah?" "So, your mom drives you out there, someone's already caught your horse, tacked him up." "You just take a lesson for what, an hour, and then give him a kiss and go home?" "Sort of, yeah." "So what?" "So, if you really wanna be best friends with your horse, you're gonna have to get to know him." "Spend some time with him, know what he likes, what he doesn't, okay?" "Okay." "Good." "You know Ty?" "He's gonna keep an eye on you guys today." "Bye." "If this is about the motorhomes, I don't have time." "Well, you can take those motorhomes, and you know where you can park 'em." "And I talked to Val Stanton." "Now, why didn't you tell me?" "Tell you what?" "That she changed her mind?" "She lost her nerve?" "Lookit, that woman's not the only game in town, Jack." "Lots of fish in the sea." "I've got lots of irons in the fire." "Hmph." "Fire." "There are no fires." "Do you ever pay attention to anything, at all?" "Nobody's selling 'cause nobody's buying." "Oh, this isn't about the loan, now." "Now I'm responsible for the whole bad economy?" "Well, it's gonna get better in a couple of years, Jack." "Well, maybe I don't wanna wait a couple of years." "Well, that's what Lou and I were talking about." "Well then, start talking about something else." "'Cause nobody's putting motorhomes on my land." "What happened to you not being so involved?" "I'm working on it!" "But you're sure as hell not making it easy for me." "That's not bad!" "You learn anything about your horse yet?" "You know, I know this isn't actually about me watching my horse." "It's about my horse getting used to me." "You know, for a ten-year-old, you're pretty smart." "If I'm so smart, why am I sitting here?" "Yeah well, just make sure you're smart enough to stay on this side of the stall." "And I'm gonna have to reschedule you for next Tuesday." "Yes." "Yes, I understand rearing is a serious issue." "Uh..." "I'm sure Little Trigger is a lovely horse." "Look, we-w-why don't you let me see what I can do, and I'll call you back." "Thanks!" "Okay." "Hi." "You know, Amy thinks there's nothing wrong with Taylor's horse." "Why doesn't she tell me that, so I can stop juggling all the bookings." "You want to get that?" "No, just let it go to message." "All I'm saying is that it might not be the horse, but that little girl." "What?" "You lied to me!" "I hate you!" "And Dad hates you, too!" " Taylor!" " That's why he's not coming!" "Taylor, please!" "You know your father's working!" "He'd come if you'd let him!" "It's not a good time right now." "Okay, look." "Mommy and Daddy both need to give each other a little space to work things out!" "Okay?" " Come on." " I wanna go home!" "I'm not sure what these guys need is a horse whisperer." "To tell you the truth," "I was getting sick of taking my shower at school." "Well, see?" "He's not all that bad." "Yeah." "Right." "Come on, maybe Caleb deserves a break." "Yeah, I mean, you guys were really good friends, before, you know, the whole mom thing." "Okay." "Shut up, both of you." "I know what you're doing here!" "Hello?" "Your boyfriend's loft?" "Okay, Ash, that's not what this is about." "Yeah, I mean, we're-we're your friends!" "Then why don't you start acting like it?" "If you're really my friends, then why are you trying to use me to get rid of Caleb?" "Especially if he's such a "great guy"!" "Hey." "Kate...?" "I was, uh..." "I was just gonna call you." "This isn't working." "I-I'm sorry, but this whole trip has just been a mistake." "Kate, Amy's just gotten started, you know, she usually needs more time..." "Yeah, you know what?" "I-I just don't think that Amy understands the real issue." "We have a problem horse." "And drawing pictures of it isn't gonna solve anything." "Well, um... you see, Kate, according to Amy, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with your horse." "The horse that almost killed my daughter?" "I..." "All right, well, maybe if Amy had spent a month by Taylor's bedside, wondering if she's ever gonna walk again..." "Yes, of course." "Obviously something happened, I'm not denying that." "But your horse seems okay." "Oh, so you think it's my daughter?" "I haven't spent a lot of time with her, but she doesn't seem very happy." "Yeah." "Well..." "The only thing that'll make her happy is if her father and I get back together, and that just doesn't seem very likely." "I had no idea you're separated." "After the accident, when Taylor was in the hospital, we were both just too worried about her to remember that our relationship was falling apart." "And then we got home, and Taylor started to feel better, and two weeks later, he walked out." "Did you know Hershey, Pennsylvania is one of the top ten most romantic places in North America?" "That's where they make those Chocolate Kisses." "I spent this whole study period in the computer lab." "Okay, well, what else did you learn?" "Well, besides the fact that there were 500" "Taylor Kennedys on Facebook, only one of which has Trooper as her profile picture..." "Yes, yes, besides that!" "'Kay, well, she has 216 Facebook "horsey" friends." "And last fall, she was reserve champion, and pony hunter at the Cedarton Fair." "Okay." "What about her accident?" "Well, there's nothing really about it." "But there is one picture with her mom and her dad, and she's in a full body cast at the hospital." "But you wanna know what the weird part is?" "It's the only picture on her wall where she actually seems happy." "Okay, so we're just gonna walk calmly towards your horse." "This is exactly what my mom told me I couldn't do." "Well, you're with me," "I'm sure your mom will be fine with it." "Besides, you know Trooper isn't a bad horse." "I guess." "You know, something must have really spooked him to make him run off with you the way he did." "I don't know." "I didn't do anything." "Horses are really sensitive, and if you're scared, or angry, or upset, then horses are scared and upset, too." "People do that too, you know." "They run away from things that hurt them." "Are you talking about me?" "I'm just saying that sometimes, after a bad accident, a lot of people never get on a horse again." "So, are you sure this is something that you wanna do?" "I used to really love it." "I loved jumping, and going to shows." "Yeah." "I wanna do it again." "I want to ride Trooper." "Okay." "Come on, let's go get your horse." "Here." "I think you know how to do this." "I do, but..." "Don't worry, I'm gonna be right here." "Just be gentle." "Is there anything you usually like to say to Trooper?" "I don't really talk to him that much." "I talk to my horses endlessly." "I say all sorts of dumb things." "Well, we do have a special song." "I learned it at horse camp." "You know, you're not gonna get very far before dark, and your room is just gonna be empty, anyways." "You could stay the night, get an early start." "Yeah, thanks, but I think it's best if we get going." "Okay." "I'll print off your receipt, and uh, get Ty to load your horse." "♪ I ride an old paint ♪" "♪ I lead an old dam ♪" "♪ goin' to Montana to throw the hoolihan ♪" "♪ they feed 'em in the coulees ♪" "♪ they water in the draw ♪" "♪ their tails are all matted ♪" "♪ their backs are all raw ♪" "♪ ride around ♪" "♪ ride around real slow ♪" "♪ the fiery and the snuffy... ♪." "Okay, so I'll just get you to take a look over this." "And uh, don't worry," "I didn't charge you for the wine." "You know, I think you were right, Lou." "Maybe we should stay a few more days." "♪ ...take my saddle from the wall ♪" "♪ put it on my pony and lead him from the stall... ♪" "I thought it was bad before." "But now, he spent half the night talking about fixing window screens, and whether you should use plastic or metal mesh." "And how bolting them is better than screwing them." "Ty, Ty!" "You can't let him do it, okay?" "What!" "Why?" "Because Ashley knows it's just about us getting him out of the loft!" "Yeah, and it's working!" "Yes, but Ty, it can't come from us." "Okay?" "Caleb has to figure this out on his own." "If we leave it up to him," "I mean, for all his talk, he's-he's clueless about girls!" "Um, I know this sounds weird, but Ashley is my friend, okay?" "And... uh, she made me feel really bad, like I was just using her, or..." "All right, I get it." "But I'm the one stuck living with him." "And his boots." "Come on, Ty." "We just have to stay out of it, okay?" "Hey, Amy!" "So, um, what're we doing today?" "Yes, Dad, no, I realize we've got to do something about this." "Today?" "Okay." "Yes, I'll meet you there." "Yeah, I..." "I promise." "Look, Dad, I've got to go." "Bye!" "Grampa, what is all this?" "Fence panels." "For the new pens." "Okay, well, I hope you can get them up fast, 'cause I've got three horses coming in today, and where am I supposed to put them?" "What are you doing, Lou?" "I thought you were on Amy's side!" "How's she going to handle all these new horses?" "You know what?" "I don't know." "I don't know!" "I had the whole schedule worked out, and then dad came and screwed everything up!" "And now Amy's spending way too much time with this little girl, and you know, I'm getting all involved with her mother, and the..." "The problems with her marriage," "I don't know how anyone makes a relationship work!" "Do you?" "'Cause I don't!" "And do you know when the last time P.W. called me was?" "Well, have you tried calling him?" "No!" "I don't wanna seem desperate!" "Well, maybe if you call him, you won't be!" "Kate!" "Hey." "What're you doing?" "Oh, I'm just expecting a fax," "I gave them your number." "I just, um..." "My husband, he just filed for divorce." "Oh Kate..." "I'm so sorry." "No, I just got off the phone with my lawyer, so." "I guess there's no sugarcoating it any longer!" "Taylor doesn't know?" "Well, I mean, I'm sure in some way she does." "You know, I just have never used those words." "Like, separation, divorce." "They just sound so real!" "But I guess now, I just uh..." "I guess now, I don't have any choice." "I'll let you know as soon as the fax comes in." "Okay." "Hey, man!" "You, uh, remember what I was telling you about Ashley?" "Huh!" "Yes I do." "Yeah, that whole handyman thing, you should just forget about it, okay?" "But that was good advice!" "I mean, we might only be talking about hot water, but, hey!" "At least, we're talking." "Yeah, but, um..." "The thing is..." "Ashley doesn't buy it." "She thinks that me and Amy, we're just..." "Jerking you around." "Why?" "Cause of you living here, sharing my place." "Oh yeah, of course." "What're you talking about?" "We were trying to get you to move out of my loft and back into your trailer." "Sorry, man." "Wow, that's..." "What am I supposed to do now?" "Don't ask me, man." "And don't fix anything, okay?" "Just..." "let her be." "And you can stay in my loft as long as you want, okay?" "Don't worry about it." "As long as you want." "Oh." "My." "God." "Hey." "I knew when you saw her, she'd sell herself." "Yeah..." "Dad, I-I don't know." "I mean, this..." "This place has a very specific look to it." "Logs, wood, rocks, yeah." "More of a nature thing than an RV thing." "Honey, it's a "strike while the iron's hot" situation." "This is the perfect solution!" "Solution to what, Dad?" "I mean, this place is never gonna be the Super Six motel, you know?" "Lou, you know I'm doing this for you girls, right?" "I mean, why do you think I moved back here?" "The way things are going," "I don't know how long I can hang on." "Okay." "I get it." "And I'll... think about it." "I promise." "I love you." "I love you too." "I can get a deal on six." "Six?" "Lookit." "Check it out, go ahead!" "Wow." "You look pretty good on that horse!" "Thanks!" "That's what my instructor says too." "Well, maybe we can go on a trail ride tomorrow." "Why not now?" "Well, I'd really rather not overdo it, okay?" "We'll just be careful, and... we'll take Trooper in, and Ty can give you a lift back." "Amy!" "Amy!" "Oh!" "Easy..." "Mallory!" "What!" "?" "I got a fax!" "For Taylor's mom!" "Okay, so give it to Taylor." "But I can't!" "Then give it to Ty!" "Fine, but this is the last time" "I ever spy on anybody for you!" "There you go!" "Okay, thanks." "No problem." "This was the best day of my life!" "Well, who knows?" "Tomorrow might be even better..." " You got it?" " Yep." " There you go." " Oh, Taylor!" " Yeah?" "Before I forget, give that to your mom, okay?" " Okay." " Okay" " Cool." " Okay?" " Thanks!" " Bye!" " See ya!" "Hey, Ash!" "Hey!" "Where do you think you're going?" "We need your help here!" "Ask Ty, Jack!" "He knows." "Took his advice, backed off, and now, she's calling me." "You sir, are a genius!" "Hey, genius." "I've got some advice for you." "Pick up your end!" "Thanks for your help, Mallory." "Don't mention it." "Ever again!" "All right." "Miss Taylor?" "You can do up the girth, make sure it's nice and tight." "What's wrong?" "You okay?" "I guess I'm just kinda nervous." "Uh, I haven't been on a trail since..." "Well, don't worry." "We'll just walk, Okay?" "If I can even get Roxie to leave the barn!" "And you know, this isn't gonna do you any good if it falls off." "I know you mean well, Dad." "But even you've got to admit, it makes this place look like a parking lot at Walmart!" "Oh, you don't have to sugarcoat it!" "So I've got a better idea, if you would just listen!" "We refinance the loan, and we build another cabin." " Or two, just..." " No!" " Just right over there!" " Refinance, no." " Yes!" " No!" "Lou, you've done a great job with the place." "And I-I don't wanna be a problem!" "Oh, come on, Dad." "Don't..." "No." "If you don't wanna work with me anymore, just buy me out!" "What?" "Lou?" "Yeah?" "About that fax?" "Um..." "look, as far as I know, it hasn't come in." "But I'll..." "I'll call Amy, and get her to check the fax machine, okay?" "Fax?" "I gave it to Ty." "Yeah." "Mallory gave it to Ty." "Okay." "I'll be right back." "Hey, Ty?" "You know that... that fax?" "I gave it to Taylor." "Taylor!" "No!" "Taylor!" "I tried to stop her!" "Come on, Roxie, let's go!" "Come on, Roxie!" "No, please don't do this right now!" "Come on!" "Come on, come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "I'm okay!" "Taylor, pull up!" "Taylor!" "Taylor!" "Pull up!" "I can't!" "Taylor!" " Taylor!" " I can't stop!" "Taylor!" "Pull Up!" "There's a cliff!" "Taylor!" "You okay?" "Taylor!" "Where are you going?" "Taylor!" "Stop!" "Taylor!" "Taylor!" "What is your problem?" "!" "Huh?" "Morning, Ash." "I'm glad you called." "Who else was I supposed to call?" "What's wrong?" "What do you think?" "My damn car won't start!" "I mean, it's been making all these funny noises!" "I mean, I should've taken it in months ago, but do you have any idea how much it costs just to open up the hood?" "And, now I'm gonna be late for work, and Maggie told me if I'm late one more time, she's gonna fire me, and I just" "Hey, just relax." "I'll give you a lift." "Who's gonna be here for the tow-truck?" "Uh, you don't mean..." "You know what I think?" "I think you did that on purpose." "No!" "He just bolted, like he did the last time!" "You made him bolt, Taylor." "I saw the riding crop in the barn." "I didn't do anything!" "It's your fault!" "You say you could fix him, but you didn't!" "You know, maybe you're right." "And if I can't, then your mom's just gonna have to find a new home for Trooper." "No!" "You can't tell my mom." "I didn't mean to hurt him!" "So what exactly did you mean to do?" "I don't know!" "They were fighting, and yelling and..." "I just wanted to go fast, to get away!" "Are you talking about your accident?" "When I was in the hospital, it was just like it used to be..." "With my mom and my dad." "They were together." "Until they got home." "And then... my dad left." "So you wanted to hurt yourself again?" "Like before?" "They're getting a divorce!" "I just wanted to stop them!" "But I swear, I did not mean to hurt Trooper!" "I tried to pull up, like you said." "But it was too late." "You know, she did it deliberately, Grampa." "Maybe not even just this time, but the other time too, when she thought her parents were gonna split up." "That's how she ended up in the hospital?" " Yeah." " Wow." "Taylor begged me not to tell her mom, but..." "I really think she needs to know!" "Well, it seems like that little girl does need help, and it goes way beyond help with her horse." "Now, you did the best you could." "But her mom needs to know that right now, that horse might be the least of her problems." "Hm?" "So, what happened to being partners?" "It's not working, Lou." "You know it, and I know it." "Yeah, maybe so, Dad." "But I'm not gonna buy you out." "So what am I supposed to do?" "Just default and walk away?" "Yeah, Dad." "Sure." "I guess you could do that, if we were just partners." "But we're not, we're a family!" "And maybe you're a little bit unclear on how I feel about that." "But we've gotta figure this out." "Look, worse comes to worse," "I'll carry the payments for a couple of months." "But one thing is for sure." "I am not gonna to let you walk out on this family ever again!" "It is pretty ugly, you know." "Oh, God." "It's awful!" "Come here." "Hey, Mallory." "I need a favour." "Okay, um..." "I didn't listen to you." "And?" "And..." "I really appreciate everything that you've done." "And?" "And..." "I'm sorry that sometimes I take you for granted." "Good enough." "Thank you!" "I found this outside the barn." "You know, you should really put a password on it." "Anyone with half a brain can figure out everything about you in fifteen seconds!" "Great." "So, what's the favour?" "More spying?" "Uh, I need to talk to Taylor's mom, and..." "Taylor cannot know." "Your secret's safe with me."

"You know, since you fixed the water heater," "I've washed my hair about a dozen times, and I even washed Nikki!" "You mean my water heater." "Yeah." "Whatever." "You know, tomorrow, if you want," "I could give you a lift to school." "No, thanks." "Well, see you, then." "Yeah." "See you." "Come on, Nikki!" "I'm really sorry for what I did to you."
