Amy: Previously on "Heartland":

- I was planning on
proposing to Casey.

By the time I got there
I realised...

wasn't the right thing to do.

- How about I stay with you
for a while

- As a roommate?
- Yeah.

Then I won't have to stay
with my mom

and her boyfriend
and his crazy daughter.

- [Happy inhale] Up!

[Spartan knickers]

- [Small chuckle]
Hey, boy, you're okay.

We all have are off days.

Tim: What's wrong?
Did he leave?

Doesn't surprise me.

- He left
because I told him to.

- What did he do?
- Nothing.

He did everything right.

- [Sympathetic exhale]

- I think I've just
made a big mistake.

- Caleb, you're whistling again.

What's up with you?

- Oh, maybe it has something
to do with the fact

that I'm gonna be a daddy.

- What?!
- Yeah.

- Congratulations!
- Thanks.

[Both laugh]

- I hope you're not expecting
a raise?

- Oh, now that you mention it.

Tim, you got company.

- Hey... wow. Heh.

- Hey, Tim.

Case. Yeah.

[Loud bang]

[Waking moans]

[Annoyed exhale]

[Pots clatter]

- What are you doing?

- I'm trying to make us
some of my

world famous blueberry waffles,

but I can't find your waffle
iron anywhere.

- We don't have a waffle iron

- Oh. Okay. Well, that sucks.

[Sighs]

How can you live
without a waffle iron?

You know, Georgie,
I hate to say it

but you really need to start
getting this place in order.

- I need to get this place
in order?

Ever since you moved in here
it's been a disaster.

Look around.

- It's not that bad.

- I had a shower yesterday,
and I went to grab a towel

and all your stinky rodeo
gear was on the rack.

- Okay. You need to chill out,
okay?

Ever since that guy
moved to Florida

you've been in a total mood.

What happened?
- Nothing happened,

and I am not in a mood.

- Okay. Here you go.

- Did you just grab this
out of the sink?

- I wiped it.

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

- Must be nice to have
a leisurely breakfast.

- Yes. But I'm so ready
for Ty and Lyndy to come home.

I miss them so much.

And Luke is off at summer camp,

so I kinda feel like
an empty nester.

- I get it...

I got one kid in Vancouver
and one up in the loft.

But you know what?

You gotta just enjoy the
freedom while it lasts, right?

Oh gosh.

There he is again.

- Who's that?

- Uh, hello... J.D. Werth.

He's that wealthy developer
who's running for mayor.

- Right.
Thought I recognized him.

[Door opens]
- Hi, J.D. Werth.

I promise a vote for me

is a vote for progress.

- Uh, excuse me. If you
don't mind my asking.

What exactly does that mean?

What-what kind of progress?

- Well, progress can come
in many forms.

But in general, I think

Hudson could use
a major revitalization.

- Well, I hope that don't mean
a bunch of new developments

that would take away
from our town's charm.

- [Chuckles]
No, no, no. Of course not.

I wanna build on that charm,

with a vision that creates
jobs and opportunities

in the process.
- Hm. Okay.

Well, if you're done
campaigning,

maybe you'd like to order
something off our menu?

- Of course.

Let me see some of those pies
I've heard so much about.

- Sure thing.

[Hooves thunder]

- Well, it's been a while.
- Yeah. Yeah.

I haven't seen you
around here since uh...

- Since we decided
not to get engaged.

- Right.

- Well, felt like I should keep
my distance.

But I'm back in town
for the Heritage Rodeo.

I'm running it this year.

- Yeah. We're all excited
about it.

Students are getting
ready for it.

- Actually um,

I've got some other news
which is why I came by.

- Wha-what-what's wrong?

- Um...

- What is it?

- Well, I um...
I just got engaged.

I'm getting married.

He's a stock contractor

- Right.

- We're gonna put some roots

I'm selling my company...

but only to someone
that I trust.

- Why are you looking at me
like that?

- Because I'm hoping
you're interested.

- [Irritated exhale]
Look, he's at it again.

Should I ask him to leave?

- That guy really gets under
your skin, doesn't he?

- Well, his whole platform
is about change.

You know, changing our town.

Why? I mean, what's wrong
with Hudson the way it is?

- Yeah, but doesn't every
politician talk about

how they're gonna be the big
change-maker?

It's just talk, Lou?
- I don't know.

There's something about
this guy

tells me not
to underestimate him.

- Thanks for the pie, Lou.

You really do run
a great place here.

You know, it's forward thinking

that are part of my vision

There you go.

Thanks again.
[Door opens]

- Have you seen Lisa's new
jumpers?

They're beautiful.

She said we can take them
for a ride

on her cross-country course.

- Yeah. I would be
totally up for that.

- Does anyone know anything
about J.D. Werth?

He owns Werth Developments.

- Yeah. His banners are up
at all the rodeos.

He's a huge sponsor.

- And he's running for Mayor.

But it doesn't seem like
he's got much competition.

- Right?

- Now we don't talk politics
at the table.

- Well, maybe we should start.

The election is only
a month away.

- So, guess who stopped by
the practice

to talk to me today?
Casey.

- Casey?
- Really?

- When did she get back
in town?

- She's running
the Heritage Rodeo.

But get this... she's uh...

she's engaged.

- Huh.
- To someone else?

- Yes, Georgie.

- Well, who is it?

- It's a guy.

He's a stock contractor
from Albuquerque.

She's gonna move down there
and she's...

she's gonna be married
to him.

- That must be a little weird
for you.

- No, no. I mean...

you know what's really weird?

She tried to sell me
her company.

- Hm.

Well, running rodeos kinda
sounds right up your alley.

- Yeah, I think you'd be really
good at that.

- You could use the money you
got from selling Big River--

- Whoa, whoa,no. No-no.
I'm not buy it.

I've got a rodeo business,
and it can't run itself.

- Well, Caleb could step up
and do a little bit more.

- Yeah.

- Like I said,
it can't run itself.

[Jack chuckles]
Amy: Dad...

are you sure you're not
just bitter?

- Uh, no.

I'm happy...

for her and, you know,
the guy.

You know?

It's just, that's
it's not my problem

that she's trying to dump
her business on me.

So she can run off

- Good mornin'.

- Hi.

- So you gonna take over
my company or what?

- [Sighs]

Case, I...

I appreciate you asking me,
I really do.

I have my rodeo school.

I'm just too busy right now.
I can't.

- Come on, you've been doing
that for a long time.

Not ready for a new challenge?

- What's with the hard sell?

- Because you're the right
person for this.

I don't wanna hand it off
to just anybody.

I hope this isn't about me
getting married.

- No.

- Because it doesn't matter.

This is strictly business.

And I know you're the type
of guy

who recognizes a good deal
when you see it so...

just take a look.

My company's financials.

And that's last year's
bottom line.

- [Impressed exhale]

Oh!

- Oh yeah, one more thing -

Lee's finally framing
our house.

- That's good. Your dad must
have been on him then?

- Actually no.
He's been pretty tied up

getting his students ready
for a big rodeo.

- Oh! Well, that's probably
why Lee's made some progress.

- Yeah, maybe.
Okay, well, I should run,

but Lyndy you say hi
to grandma for me, okay?

- Bye.
- [Ty chuckles]

My mom wishes you were here.
We're all miss you.

- Yeah, I miss you too.

You guys hurry home.
- We will.

Love you.
- Love you too.

Bye Lyndy. Love you.

- Say bye.
- Bye.

- Bye.

[Screen door shuts]
- Okay!

I'm doing it.

I'm getting into
the rodeo business.

- You already in the rodeo
business.

- No, I mean I'm buying
Casey's company.

- Congrats, Dad!
That's awesome!

- You were dead set
against that last night.

What happened?

- I got a look at the profit
margin.

And you were right, I'm already
in the rodeo business.

So it's not like I'm starting
from scratch.

- So does this mean a bigger
role for Caleb in the school?

- Ah... I'm not sure.

Look, first I'm gonna focus
on this heritage rodeo.

Casey and I are gonna do it
together.

Just like a transition.

- Well, that makes sense.

Give you a chance
to get your feet wet--

- No, no.
We're diving right in.

And we're gonna need some help.

You know,
we gotta make a splash!

- We?

- Well, you're the one
that pushed me into this.

So I'm gonna need your help
on this, Jack.

- No.
- Look,

here is what I wanna do.

I wanna do a little ceremony
at the beginning that honours

some of the Hall of Famers
from back in the day.

- Yeah, yeah, I-I'll be there.

- No. But I mean from way back.

Like further than you even.
Before electricity.

So I've got a list.

I need you to be my point man.

Maybe you can contact
the folks on that.

- Oh yeah, there is some
familiar names there.

It might be fun to catch up.

Look at that,
"Lucky" Butch Connelly.

I haven't seen him in a long
while. Sure I'll help you out.

I'll let you get at it.

I'm a busy man.

This will be good.

shower, Jade.

I couldn't even wash my hair.
- Okay, well,

I think we have the world's
smallest hot water tank

- Or maybe you take
the world's longest showers?

- Okay. Why don't we talk about
what's really bothering you.

- I am. I have a roommate that
doesn't clean up after herself,

steals all my food,
and hogs all the hot water.

- Okay. I think this rant
has a lot more to do with Quinn

than it does with me.
- Jade! Stop!

- Okay.
- Whoa.

Sorry am I inputting something?

- Georgie is just seriously
repressing.

- Not true.

- Okay, well whatever's
going on it sounds like

you guys could probably use
a break from each other.

Georgie I was thinking
maybe we could go Fairfield,

and try out Lisa's new
jumpers?

- Um, thanks,
but not-not today.

- Okay. Jade?

- Me? On a jumper?
- Yeah. Why not?

- Could be pretty hard
for her to handle.

- Okay. I do rodeo
for a living,

I think I can handle
a jumping horse.

- Yeah. But you can't jump
anything, so what's the point?

- I bet I could ride
a jumping horse

better than you can ride
broncs.

- Ooh, that sounds to me like
a challenge?

- Yeah, I'm in if you are--
- Yeah. You're on.

- Whoa-whoa-whoa. You are not
getting on a bronc.

But maybe a friendly competition

would be good for you guys
- Sure.

I still think I can jump
a horse

better than she can rope
a calf.

- Game on.

Amy: They both got so amped up.

But it's crazy, right?
- What? No.

I think it's actually
a really good idea

that dad buys Casey's
rodeo business.

- You are not even listening
to me.

I'm talking about Georgie
and Jade.

- I'm sorry.

I'm just doing a little
digging on J.D. Werth.

- I think you're maybe getting

a little too involved in this,
Lou.

- Well, if he's gonna be
our next mayor

I wanna know
what we're getting.

So far I've found some pretty
shady business practices,

and this kind of scary quote
from a town hall meeting.

- What does it say?

- "Growth and comfort
can't coexist

and Hudson has become
far too comfortable."

- Well, at least him message
stays consistent.

He's all about change.

- Yeah. And everybody
is getting on board.

He's way ahead in the polls.

But how far is he gonna go
with these big ideas?

And what are these big ideas
anyways?

He never really says.

I don't trust him.

It's been a rough couple
of years.

Memory lapses,

dizzy spells.

Doctor thinks it's because
of the concussions.

the best safety gear back then.

If any at all.

There's no shame

- It's not a matter of pride,
trust me.

We don't have any money.
There's only so much

you can get out of
the healthcare system,

and the rodeo didn't come
with a pension.

a lot of interest

in being a part of it.

- That's good.
- But I gotta say...

it has certainly opened
my eyes.

- How so?

- Well, some of them have
hit pretty hard times.

My old friend, Butch,
he's really struggling.

The long term effects
from too many concussions.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

- And the worst of it is he
doesn't have enough money

to pay for the extra healthcare

and support that he needs.

- That doesn't seem fair.

- No, it is not.

Butch and these other legends,

they're the ones who gave
the best years of their lives

to make the rodeo
what it is today.

When they used to get thrown
from a bronc or a bull,

there was a pickup man
to pull them off the ground.

And now when they
need it most...

who have they got?

No. They're completely
on their own,

and something's gotta change.

- An English saddle feels
different, doesn't it?

- It's smaller.
- Yeah.

Just remember balance is the
most important thing, okay?

Keep your shoulders
in line with your hips -

in line with your heels.

Caleb: Keep your elbow up
nice and high.

- Okay.
- You gonna pull.

- Pull.
- Pull? Don't push.

Don't push, pull.
- Okay.

- Swing the tip of your rope

And I gotta find rodeo clowns,

and I gotta find somebody

How-how's it going
with the old boys?

- Well, I've been able
to track down quite a few,

but the way most of them
are living...

it's not right.
- What do you mean?

- This sport of ours
it's tough on the body.

It doesn't make for,
you know,

the most comfortable
retirement years.

- Well, nature of the beast.

- Well, it just seems to me
that...

I don't know,
an accounting firm

can have a pension plan
for their bean counters,

but there's absolutely
nothing in place

for people that ride broncs
and bulls for a living.

- So are you saying,

you would've rather been
an accountant?

- What I'm saying is,
it is not fair,

something about it.

If I co-if I could go back...
hey, I'd do it...

all over again.

It's what I was born to do.
- Yeah.

It just feels like
there shoulda been

some kind of safety net

We were all so young.

about a fund for retired

Everybody always wants

There wouldn't have sold-out
rodeo arenas

is just turning their backs

I probably have to start being
a bit more careful with him.

- Hey. Couple lunch specials
from the diner.

- Sweet. What's that?

- This is uh...

I went by J.D. Werth's
campaign office today.

- What?
- Yeah.

I just wanted to talk to him,
you know,

and find out what he actually
has in mind for Hudson.

And so I'm waiting
in his office, forever,

and I see this.

And it's labeled
"Tomorrow's Hudson".

- And you took it?
- [Exhales] I know.

You know what,
I shouldn't have.

And I'm gonna definitely
return this right now.

- No, no. We need
to look inside.

- We should not be looking
at that.

- Why? You took it.

Georgie: Whoa, what is this?

- This is main street...

a really commercialized
version of it.

Jade: And he wants to put this
cheesy chain restaurant

right next to Maggie's?

- Looks like that's the plan.

♪♪♪

- You see...

it's just not right to see
the pioneers of our sport

in such dire strait.
- Mhmm.

- Especially when we can all
band together to help them out.

So what I'd like to propose...

is that each of you
donate a small percentage

of your rodeo companies profits

into a retirement fund.

What do you say?

[Hesitant reactions]

- Look, I-I maybe the new kid
on the block here,

but I think I speak
for everyone when I...

well... when I say that
we all understand

these people need our help.

But, personally,
I haven't even had a chance

to prove my books.

So I don't know
what I can contribute.

- Well, I can help you out
with that.

- Well, thanks.

But there's also no precedent.

So I think in fairness,

we should all just
take some time,

give it some proper thought.

And then, you know,
we'll talk about it again.

- Talk is cheap.

But being old
and broken down isn't.

I shouldn't have to say this,

but apparently I do.

If we,
as the rodeo community,

don't support and protect
the men and women

who built this thing...
who will?

So I'll ask again;

Who's gonna step up?

Seriously?

Seriously?!

So, what? You expect these
legends to show up

for some token ceremony,

and help you all look humble
and grateful.

You're not even willing
to help?!

Provide them with a decent
quality of life?

Well, too bad.
'Cause they're not coming.

The legends of our sport
are officially boycotting

The Heritage Rodeo.

[Low hum of chatter]

[Cattle moo, horses snort]

[Cheering, applause]
Announcer: Hello everybody!

And welcome to Hudson's
Annual Heritage Rodeo!

And starting it all of
is Hudson's very own

"Miracle Girl", Amy Fleming.

Let's give her a big,
hometown welcome.

- How are you?

Oh. Hey there, Lou.

I heard you came by
to see me yesterday.

- Yeah. Yeah, there is just,
you know,

only so long I could sit
around and wait.

- Yeah. I'm sorry about that.

I mean, let's-let's get
something in the books

for next week.

Looks like I'm freed up from
hitting that campaign trail.

- Ah... aren't you
in the final stretch

before the big election?

- It appears not.

My only opponent dropped out
of the race.

I'm gonna announce myself
as the new mayor,

right here, today.

- Wait, you can't do
that though.

It has to go through
town council.

- Well, my friends on council
say it's just a formality.

I'm the last man standing.

It's a done deal.

[Laughs]

Announcer: Get into your seats, folks,

and hold on to your hats

because this rodeo is gonna be
one heck of a ride.

But first Casey McMurtry
would like to say

a few words to kick
this thing off.

- What a great crowd
we have today.

I wanna thank you all
for coming out!

[Applause and cheering]

It has been such a thrill
for me to,

to put on this event and
so many others over the years.

But the time has come for me
to hand the reins

of my late husband,
Hank McMurtry's company,

over to the only person in
the world that I could trust

to carry on his tradition
of putting on

the most exciting rodeos
on the circuit.

He's Foothills Hall of Famer,

and Hudson's very own...

Tim Fleming.

[Applause and cheering]

- Thank you.

Well, let's give it up
for Casey McMurtry.

[Applause]

I'm gonna have some big
boots to fill.

But I'm up for the challenge.

I guess, where I, I, I...

[Exhales]

You gotta be kidding me.

[Crowd jeers]

Ah... just... folks,

folks...

it seems that there is
a group of people here

that have something to say
and in my opinion ah...

they've earned the right
to be heard.

These, these are some of
the greatest rodeo legends

of all time. Right here.
Right in front of us.

[Applause]

Jack.

May I?

- Hi everybody.
- Woo-hoo! [Applause]

- My name is Jack Bartlett.

Now... like Tim said,

these people here

are bona fide rodeo legends.

They're some of the most fierce competitors

that have ever graced
these grounds.

But it's a tough sport.

And years of throwing their
heart and soul into the rodeo...

well, it's taken its toll.

We feel that as a community

that we should do something
to help these people

and ease their burden.

It's a bit hypocritical to be
celebrating our heritage

when we haven't been able
to take care of the people

who are most responsible for it.

So tell me, what are we gonna
do about it?

Tim?

- Okay, so here's
what I'm proposing.

I'm going to donate all of
the profits

from today's rodeo

toward a fund for retired
rodeo competitors

long after they've hung up
their hat and spurs.

[Cheering and applause]

Thank you.

But there is a group of rodeo
owners here today

that I would expect
the same from.

Are you willing to donate a
percentage of your profits?

[Encouraging cheers]

Tim: What do you say?
Crowd: Woo! Come on!

- Can I get a commitment?

Looks like a yes!
What do you say, folks?

Okay?
[Cheering and applause]

Great.
Hey, bring them up.

- Thank you.
Woman: That's right!

- Well, folks,
thank you so much

for that warm gesture.

I think it's time
to properly introduce

the legends of the rodeo.

They're right here
in the front row.

There is Tom Garner.
[Applause]

We have Fran Dauber
and Darcy Bream...

and Sid Carson.

And the one and only

"Lucky" Butch Connelly,
right there!

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you doing back here?

- I thought I'd come wish
you luck in the broncs.

- Thanks.

Gotta keep up this hot streak.

Get another big win
like yesterday.

- What big win?

- The jump I did.

- [Chuckles] Well,

I did way better at roping.

You know, I won, right?

- Did Amy say that?

- Well, no, but...

I felt too bad
about Spartan to ask.

- Well...

I think you did better
than I thought you would.

- Thanks.
You did pretty good too.

- So what do you say?
Call it a draw?

- Yeah... sure.

- Hey, also I just wanted
to say I'm sorry.

- It's okay.

You're not the worst roommate
in the entire world.

- No, I mean,
I'm sorry about Quinn.

- It's okay.

Tim: Please join me
in welcoming

our lead sponsor, J.D. Werth,

he'd like to have a few words
with you.

[Applause]
- Thank you.

Let's hear it for Hudson!

[Cheering and applause]

What an amazing event

to revel in our glorious past,

but right now I have some news

about our town's bright future.

I am humbled to announce
by way of acclamation...

I will be your next mayor...

[Shocked gasps]
[Reluctant applause]

- Excuse me.
Stop! Excuse me.

Excuse me. Pardon me.

I'm sorry for the interruption,
everyone.

But I think before you go
any further...

that the people of Hudson

should decide their next mayor
at the ballot box.

[Cheering and applause]

I'm so sorry to interrupt.

Hi. May I?

Sorry.

My name's Lou Fleming.
Woman: Yeah, Lou!

Many of you know me as the
woman who pours your coffee

down at Maggie's.

But I am more than
just a business owner,

I am also a proud member
of this community.

This rodeo is a celebration
of Hudson

and of everything that
generations of people

have worked so hard
to build...

and I wanna protect that.

Which is why I've made
a decision...

I'm officially throwing
my hat in the ring.

And I too,

will be running to be
your next mayor of Hudson.

[Loud cheers and applause]

[Cheering and applause]

- Go Lou!

- That's right!
Give it up, everyone!

[Loud cheers and applause]

♪♪♪

- Thanks for getting the ball
rolling out there.

- Yeah. Well, you didn't
give me much choice.

- [Chuckles]

- What was with that protest?

Come on, you just about ruined
my first rodeo.

- I've seen you perform
a hundred times

in this arena and I knew
you'd come through.

- Hmm.

- But I gotta say,

of all the great rides
you've made,

and all the buckles
you've ever won...

what you did today...

I couldn't be more proud.

- Still mad at you.

- [Laughs]

- Hey, Case.

I needed to talk to you
about something.

Well, it wasn't that long ago

that I asked you to marry me...

and you said no.

- Really? You wanna get
into that here?

- Yeah. Yeah. I do...

wanna get into that right now.

- Okay. Well, first of all
I didn't say no.

We said no.

We both decided
it didn't feel right.

- Okay. But now...

seemingly over night,

you're getting married

to someone else.

And I just wonder
what makes him more right?

- I don't know.

I don't know, a lot of things.

But most of all,

I just, I feel like,

I know what I'm gonna get
with Greg.

He's just...

he's not as challenging.

- So I'm challenging?

- Yes, yes you are.

I mean, you've got this,
this crazy energy...

and our time together
it just felt like

we were a going a 100 miles
an hour.

And I was always off balance
and...

[Sighs]

you wore me out.

No.

I'm s-

Look, even though we don't
work as a couple...

you played such a big part
in the person that I am today.

- Well, that's great.

You know I've been thinking
about buying your company,

but I think it's more
your thing than mine.

- Wha...?

You-you can't do that.
We had a deal?

- You got a great operation.

You'll find somebody
to buy it in a minute.

Case, you know,

I think...

it's finally time that
we make a clean break.

Don't you?

I wish you all the best.

I really do,
to both of you.

You know I do.
