Original subtitles

Previously on When Calls the Heart.

Now, I know you're supposed to give these

at the beginning of the performance,

but I didn't have a chance.

They're beautiful. Thank you.

There's a wildlife corridor

at the cattle can take to an even bigger summer pasture.

Little girl, this is a conversation for grown-ups.

Miss Riella, green leather trunk with brass corners was found.

Really?

This is from the Schwartzman School.

You tell Angela about the tour?

When I think about something happening to her

and us not being there.

No luggage to check in.

You see any?

I told you to drop the proposal.

You knew McGinty would railroad the entire thing, didn't you?

This map, no one knows it better than we do.

Heads, you tell us who else is trafficking in your stolen loot.

Tails, you tell us where we might find the rest of it.

Teddy Davis dealt in coins like that.

You helped me out of here, I'll tell you more.

Constable Grant here.

Yes, we got the bulletin.

We'll be on the lookout.

You've heard.

Sonny Garrison escaped Granville.

Prisoner at large.

Overtook two guards and jumped the fence.

Any indication where he's headed?

Well, it's not hard to guess.

We all but told him that somebody stole his loot

when we interviewed him.

So who's he gonna go find out for himself?

The Martell Ranch.

All right, you can say it.

I told you so. You told me so.

Don't get used to saying it, though.

And we're talking about?

What else? The talk of the town.

And I must admit,

she did a wonderful job playing Gwendolyn.

Oh, Ava. So you're warming to her?

Oh, I would say I'm beginning to understand her.

Yes, her stories are a bit extravagant.

And yes, she makes herself the star

of every single anecdote.

Sometimes her stories are a bit hard to believe.

Well, who hasn't indulged in a little exaggeration

in the interest of a good story?

Hm.

Mama, can I have a candy bar?

What?!

You just had breakfast, honey bear.

I'll make you a deal. We'll go to the mercantile

and get a snack for your whole playgroup

Well, that includes you.

Elizabeth, can I, uh, can I talk to you for a second?

Oh. Well, why don't I take the little ones to the mercantile.

Come, Jack. Let's go.

Is everything okay?

Nothing to worry about.

I wish I could tell you more.

Bill and I are headed on a stakeout.

I'm not sure when I'll be back.

Can Allie stay with you if need be?

Of course.

Be safe.

I will.

That will be $0.20, which I will put on your tab.

Oh, and a telegram came for you.

It seems that Mr. Elmer Peterson lost a trunk

with the same description as yours.

What a coincidence.

Yes.

So the train station would like it

if you could telephone to confirm that the trunk

that you received is, in fact, yours.

Uh... of course it is.

It's in my room, full of my clothes.

Green trunk, brass corners.

My mother bought it for me in Budapest.

Do you read all the telegrams?

I transcribe them, that's... that's how it works.

Now, if you'll see here it says

the same train station on the same day.

How odd.

Mmhmm.

So many stolen trunks.

Busy thieves. Thank you.

Sh.

And these will be ready by morning.

Just bake them for an hour.

And then the icing.

That's right.

Got it.

Oh, and Cooper and Toby will help

with dinner service and clean up.

Aye, aye, captain.

Aye, aye.

Here, baby, that's a little too full

I can do it.

Where's your scarf?

Never mind. We can't miss the train.

You forgot it.

It's only a tour of the campus, Mama.

It'll be fine.

I'll run and get it.

There's no time. The train's not going to wait.

Okay. Goodbye, everybody.

We can't wait to hear all about Schwartzman.

I left it right on top of your bag.

Mama, we have to go.

Baby, it's all right.

It's not all right.

She wants to live on her own at this school.

She has to show us she's ready.

Okay. All right. Come on. Let's go.

Come on, Angela.

Come on.

Thank you. Bye.

I knew it!

I knew she was hiding something

and now we have proof!

We have a theory.

But why steal a trunk and a man's trunk?

Don't you see?

The missing parents, the lack of funds,

the random stories of a privileged childhood,

her irritatingly good acting.

And now, all of a sudden, this trunk conveniently shows up

with conflicting claims of ownership.

It is possible to have two identical trunks.

That both go missing?

No, thieved from the same train station on the same day?

It all adds up.

It is a strange coincidence,

but we still don't have any proof.

We need some.

We need to get to the bottom of this

because local law enforcement is away on assignment.

It's up to us.

Well...

Giddy up, Elizabeth! Ha!

Anything?

Nothing.

Why don't you head back south

and check along that creek, I'm gonna stay here.

Well, if he's traveling along the water, they'll be tracks.

Howdy, cousin.

Sonny!

Not so loud.

You got it?

Boy, do I ever.

You almost have to admire it.

Any which way we move, McGinty's got us.

All the ranchers are in his pocket.

He blocked the cattle path.

Now he's blocking any kind of compromise over the park.

Well, I can't say as I'm surprised.

He's got his hooks into every landowner

in the backcountry.

I tangled with them before.

Look, Henry, I'm sorry to ask for your help.

I know you meant to keep out of politics,

but what do I do?

Stop negotiating.

No more meetings, no more proposals.

Make an executive order.

Without the legislature?

Without the cattlemen's approval?

Yeah, and they'll make you pay, probably lose your votes.

You probably lose the votes of everyone they tell how to vote.

More than likely, you will lose the governorship.

But you'll get your park.

Makes you wonder why no one has gone around McGinty before,

if it's that easy.

Well, that's how despots rule, isn't it?

They make everyone figure that it's too much to oppose them.

But once that fear dissipates, well,

they tend to disappear like a cloud of dust.

Okay.

Let's see if we can make him disappear.

I'll write something up.

Come on, we don't want to be late for the tour.

...and right.

And...

Oh, this is beautiful.

Wow.

Hm...

Did you know that three of the founders were blind women?

The Sahara is enormous.

She's late.

Oh, just a few minutes.

Mr. and Mrs. Canfield.

Oh, you must be Mrs. Gamble.

Ms. Gamble, and I'm a student.

You can call me Clementine.

Nice to meet you, Clementine.

I'm Minnie Canfield, and this is my husband.

Joseph.

- Lovely to meet you both. - You as well.

This is Angela.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

Welcome to Schwartzman, Angela. I'm sorry I was late.

I was just finishing up in the pottery studio.

Do you like pottery?

I haven't made anything since I was little.

Angela is a wonderful musician.

Dad.

Oh, I can't wait to hear.

Let's take a tour of your future, shall we?

Yeah.

The blind leading the blind.

So, the infamous Edie Martell staying at our hotel.

Hm?

I should apologize for the way that things have gone.

I am sincerely sorry for all the trouble.

McGinty's lucky to have you on his side.

I'll give him that.

You know, the more time I spend in Hope Valley,

the more time I find myself coming around

to its way of thinking.

Hm.

Your way of thinking.

Perhaps someday we'll be on the same side.

Perhaps the divide is shrinking... a little bit,

kind of like the park.

I'll go get you a porter.

Edie?

Lucas.

Hi.

Hi.

What brings you back?

Well, the Mounties could only tell me so much, but...

it sounds like Uncle Ernie left me more

than just a bankrupted ranch.

It seems like he was mixed up in something

so they've advised me to find safe harbor.

You are looking at the newest full-time temporary resident

of the Queen of Hearts saloon.

Well, that's fantastic.

Not the troubles, obviously, but...

Well, seeing as you're here now, um,

I'm wondering if you might want to join me for dinner...

if you're free.

A working dinner?

Yes. I could be amenable to a working dinner.

Great. Say 7:00 at Minnie's Cafe,

try the new menu?

I'll be there.

Welcome back.

I've logged most of the aspens, but there are these really rare

ash trees I found over by the lumberyard.

Howdy, folks.

Sorry to bother you.

I couldn't help noticing,

you two seem to know a lot about the woods around these parts.

It's for school.

We're doing a survey of local wildlife.

That's terrific.

I wonder if you could help me with this map.

Here.

Did you draw this yourself?

Not me, my cousin, Jake... Jack... Jackson.

He gave it to me before he passed.

Said there's a tree where my parents carved their initials.

He wanted me to see it.

Aww.

See?

Right there.

There's a few trees like that.

Any idea how to find this one?

That could be the stream off the North Road.

We could take you there.

Would you?

Sure. We're headed out that way anyway.

We'll go get our stuff

and meet you at the trailhead in a few minutes.

Mighty obliged.

- Ugh! - Watch it, lady.

Well, I'll be.

Rosemary, what are we doing?

I have no idea.

Oh... Hickam.

About the heiress Riella's trunk.

Is it still in her room, perchance?

I took it up to her room after she confirmed it was hers, yes.

Did you happen to look inside?

No. I'm not in the habit of looking into customers' trunks.

I wonder if...

You're not asking to go into her room.

Okay.

What's happening here?

Have you asked our esteemed guest

if she would like to put her trunk in storage?

We don't have trunk storage.

Yet.

Sweetheart...

I'm not letting you in her room.

And we would not dream of asking.

Fine.

Perhaps we just need a different approach.

Hopefully better than trunk storage.

Elizabeth.

Weird.

What?

I don't think we should be doing this.

Who on earth expects privacy

when they leave their curtains open like this?

Everyone.

Elizabeth, what did the trunk look like again?

Green with brass corners.

- Oh. - Oh!!!

It's the trunk.

She's trying to destroy the evidence.

What should we do?

Maybe we should talk to her.

- Elizabeth, that is ridiculous. - This is ridiculous.

All right.

We need to confront this head on.

We need to be strong and stop dilly-dallying around.

Would you like to lead the charge?

Yeah. Now?

Coulter!

Oh!

Stop right there!

Huh!

Where did she go?

Howdy, friends.

Oh. Look, I brought you some paper

and some charcoal so you can do a rubbing.

Of what?

Your parents' initials... on the tree.

Oh, right.

Yeah.

Give her a minute maybe she'll explain.

Or maybe she will run away.

Rosemary, where would she go?

Stranger things have happened.

Ava.

Hi, Rosemary.

Elizabeth.

Hi.

I was curious.

- Well, I wanted to ask... - Mmhmm.

Elizabeth...

All right. Well, I was about...

Oh, Ava, I found your trunk in the wagon outside.

Oh, Mike, how thoughtful and observant you are.

Well, you're welcome.

What did you do?

I... we... nothing untoward.

Uh-huh.

Ava.

Why don't we talk?

I suppose now is as good a time as any.

Mmhmm.

Stop it.

Spill the beans, Miss Riella, if that's even your real name.

Rosemary.

It is my real name, I promise.

But I'm not an heiress.

And my parents aren't traveling the globe.

What about the Dolomites?

What about your tab, young lady?

I will pay you back one way or another, I promise.

I never meant to put you out so much.

You've all been so kind to me.

And Rosemary, Elizabeth,

I've never experienced such generosity.

Ava, why don't you start from the beginning.

Have you heard of Clive Maxwell?

The mentalist?

What? I love a bit of magic.

I mean, who doesn't?

Yeah.

Well, it's not magic. He's a con man.

And I was his plant.

His plant?

What? Like a fern.

He would pick a mark,

and he would have me butter them up,

get them to tell me a few things,

birthdays, pets, names.

And then an hour later, he would invite them on stage

and miraculously guess them.

When I realized it was a scam,

I confronted him

and he threatened to call the coppers on me.

That's terrible.

But why are you here with your extravagant stories

and not even a dime to your name?

He wanted to try a new scam.

I'd pretend to faint in the audience,

and then he'd pickpocket the mark on stage.

Only we didn't know that the mark was a Pinkerton.

And later that night, when the Pinkertons came back,

Clive blamed me, so I ran.

So the Pinkertons are after you, and you decided to come here?

I'd heard about this place.

From my book.

It sounded like the most wonderful place.

Oh, Ava.

When Nathan gets back, please talk to him.

If you do the right thing, maybe all of this can go away.

Really? You think that's possible?

Well...

Of course it's possible.

But more importantly,

think about how much lighter you'll feel.

- I do feel lighter already. - Mmhmm.

Gosh there's so much to do,

orchestra, clubs and dances.

Oh, I forgot, there's a read-aloud happening this afternoon.

Do you want to sit in?

Uh... a read aloud?

We get recordings of books,

and then we get to listen to them together.

Everyone, this is Angela Canfield.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Hi. - Hi.

Hi.

Do you mind if we join?

Not at all.

We were just starting the new Agatha Christie.

Oh, I hope you like mysteries.

I love mysteries.

It's so fun to figure out a whodunit.

Exactly.

And it's even more fun to figure it out together.

Are we there yet?

Almost.

Just making sure we don't get lost.

Um... pretty fancy compass.

Standard Mountie issue. We only use the best.

Whoa, kid!

You didn't tell me you were a Mountie.

He's a cadet in training.

Don't worry. We're not lost.

Why don't we try this another time?

Forget you ever met me, kids.

But we're almost there.

That's right.

You wouldn't want to quit now before we finish the job.

I'm sorry, cousin, I didn't know he was...

But now you do.

And now we got no choice.

Sonny Garrison.

That's your face on the wanted posters!

That's right. Ain't you smart.

Now you and Miss Nature Girl here

are gonna get back to helping us find that X.

If you hurt her...

Do what he says, kid.

You don't want to get my cousin riled.

Then you're gonna help us dig something up

and everyone goes home happy. How's that sound?

It's that way.

Move it, son.

Do you have a moment?

Yeah, sure. Come on in.

I want to apologize.

Uh-oh. An apology. Mmhmm.

Canceling the park. I figured that might happen.

No, no. The park is going ahead.

It is?

I want to say I'm sorry for taking so long.

Ah.

And I also feel like I compromised our friendship

by trying to be the good guy without ruffling any feathers.

It was very noble of you, Lucas. Thank you.

But what about the ranchers and pretty much everyone else?

I think I found a way around them.

It's what it's going to cost me,

but... this is worth it.

What's it going to cost you?

Nothing for you to worry about.

I see.

And that lady lawyer is going to cost you something there.

It's the right thing to do.

I hope that she sees that and that she understands it.

Well, good luck with that.

Thank you. Might need it.

Yeah.

Mike, have you seen Allie?

She and Oliver were supposed to meet me at the library

to go over their research.

No, I haven't seen them.

Mm.

Well, I have...

I heard them talking to one of your guests.

They offered to take him on a hike.

Which guest?

A very rude one.

That'll be Woody Garris. He checked in a few days ago.

And Molly is not wrong.

He is not the friendliest of folks.

If you catch my meaning.

We do, Mike.

And I should warn you,

I heard him on the phone in the mercantile.

Not that I was trying to listen, but he was bellowing.

And he said, he was going to sneak someone into his room.

Oh, well, that's entirely too friendly, if you ask me.

Sounded like it was possibly his son

because he kept calling him Sonny.

Well...

Woody and Sonny Garris

are going to have to answer to my two friends,

Buster Keaton and Douglas Fairbanks.

Sonny Garris?

Could it have been Sonny Garrison?

Who's Sonny Garrison?

It's part of the Garrison Gang.

Jack Thornton and Bill put him away a few years ago.

He just escaped from Granville Prison.

Didn't Bill go on a stakeout with...

Nathan.

Where did Allie and Oliver say they were taking him?

He asked if they'd show him to some lovers' tree

where people carved their initials.

There's a few of them. Did he say which one?

There's the one by the old mine.

And the one by Gleason's Mill.

We have to find them.

Molly, if the kids come back, make sure they stay here.

Of course.

Oh, dear.

Is this the place?

It sure looks like it.

All right.

Start digging.

Let's hope you get lucky for all our sakes.

I'll go find Nathan and Bill.

I brought the next shift with me.

Anything?

No, not a peep.

It's been hours.

Yeah. Something's not sitting right.

Are we missing something?

Toddy said that he got the gold from a dead rancher.

Who's got to be, Ernie Martell,

who somehow got the gold from the Garrisons.

But what does a down-on-his-luck rancher

who's never broken a law in his life

doing work with the Garrison Gang?

Well, who's to say they were working together.

Now hear me out.

The Garrisons steal the gold, they hide it somewhere.

Could it be that this Ernie Martell, this rancher,

just came upon this gold, somehow?

Dug it up when he needed it?

And he never tells his niece about it?

Well, she certainly seemed innocent.

If none of this is connected, then Sonny could be anywhere.

Well, the gold could be anywhere.

Let's leave him here in case Sonny comes back.

Head back to town and regroup.

Ya!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Allie.

Grab that side.

All right. Careful now. Get it out here.

All right, come here, come here. Watch her.

Get over there.

The lock's already broken.

He left it open?

How did this happen?

Sonny, maybe we made a mistake.

There can't be a mistake! Jake buried it right here!

It's on his map!

I know he put an X on it.

Don't look at me, cuz.

All I did was hold on to the map as instructed.

So how come there's nothing in there?

Maybe there's more to the story.

It doesn't totally make sense.

Jake buried the treasure

and left you with a map you couldn't read.

No. You did that so he could remember where it was,

but no one else could.

Why didn't he trust you?

He did. He trusted me with the map.

And then when it was safe, he was going to take us there

and we were going to dig it up.

Share it fair and square.

Maybe Jake came back and dug it up without you knowing,

because he never meant to share it.

You saying my brother was a liar.

Are you saying he was a thief?

Well, he was a thief. So are you.

You shut your mouth.

Or maybe Cousin Woody here came back and took it.

Now, now, wait a minute.

Why would I do a thing like that?

Ya! Ya!!

Ya!

Find Elizabeth?

No.

Why? What's up?

Allie and Oliver went into the woods with Sonny Garrison,

looking for a tree that had initials carved in it.

What?

Well, I went by the mine and looked there.

Mike went to Gleason's Mill

and Elizabeth went to the Martell Ranch.

You should have come across her.

I know one of those trees is up the old North Road.

They probably went there.

Ya! Ya!

Yeah. It makes sense.

Woody had the map the entire time you were in prison.

Well, Jake never trusted you.

He never trusted you either. That's why he left me the map.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hold it right there.

There you are!

Allie! Oliver!

What did I tell you about going out into the woods alone.

But we're not, Mrs. Thornton. We brought friends.

Of course.

Were my students showing you the park?

This is our teacher, Mrs. Thornton.

We were telling you about her earlier.

Really, none of you should be out here.

There are wild animals in the area.

Wolves and bears.

We saw a bear track only yesterday.

Can't be too careful.

But all you have to do is make some loud noises

and you'll scare them right off.

All right. All right.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Nathan.

Listen, lady, I don't know what your game is,

but I don't see no bears.

Well, then I guess it must have worked, huh?

Now, I am so sorry to cut the hike short,

but, Allie, Oliver,

we really can't be late for dinner, so.

Yeah, but now, if I let them go and leave with you,

they could start telling tales to teacher.

That's a good one, Sonny.

Don't use my name.

I know who you are, Mr. Garrison,

as does half the town and help is on its way.

So if you're taking hostages, you'll have to take me too,

but you'll be much faster if you go on your own.

Run, Mrs. Thornton!

Allie! Go! Go!

Ugh!

Where do you think you're going?

Get back, get back!

Sonny Garrison, you're under arrest.

Again.

Let them cool their heels for a while

till they're ready to talk.

Well done, Constable.

I can say the same thing about you, Inspector.

Ah. Thank you.

Let's go find Henry in the saloon and have a drink.

Or some apple juice.

Or some apple juice.

Perfect.

Oliver...

this is gonna get you a pretty high evaluation

on your end of year report.

Good job, Cadet.

I never should have let Allie go with him.

But you also saved us.

You were both pretty smart.

And Allie, if it hadn't been for your hair ribbon...

let's just say high marks all around.

That was impressive.

You're gonna be the talk of the town, kid.

No one will believe it.

I guess word got out.

What a relief.

Oh!

I couldn't... I couldn't find them.

Oh.

They're okay.

Ah, you did good, gents. You did good.

Well done, you two. Oh, my goodness.

I've barely scratched the surface

of this nail-biting yarn,

but I can't wait to get all the details

for the Valley Voice.

Fearless school teacher rides into danger.

Oh, whoa! Let's not give anyone any ideas.

All right. Fine.

We'll go with Mounties catch their man or some such.

Oh, speaking of Mounties, Nathan...

I'd like you to do a favor.

No, I have an opportunity for you to help, right a wrong.

Ava Riella has a confession.

She has?

She has...

Mmhmm.

Well, it's a whopper!

Well, I'm happy to oblige.

Fantastic!

So I go on one little stakeout

and you find more trouble than the jail sees

in a year.

What can I say? Diane DeMarco loves trouble.

Oh.

She has an accent now?

She does.

Well, if we had drinks,

I would toast to a successful working relationship.

May it continue to work.

Um, are we sure that they're even open

or did we just accidentally break in here?

I'm not sure.

Well, at least we won't be alone.

...you're the cute one.

Michael, Mae.

- Mike we forgot... - Minnie's dinner service.

What do we do?

You could fire up the stove and I will think of something.

Good evening. May I take your order?

Well, um, thank you, Mike. I think we could use...

menus.

Of course.

Um.

What a crazy day, huh?

Crazy.

You know, I think I would just have the special.

Excellent.

What is this special?

I was hoping that you would know.

Whatever the special is, let's make it two.

Excellent. I'll be right back.

Perfect.

So...

this is strictly business, no pleasure.

What special with what food?

I don't know. There must be something.

I wish it were just pleasure,

but I'm afraid there is something fairly serious.

Oh.

Edie, I wanted you to hear it from me,

but I will be signing an executive order

designating the land with the original boundaries,

a national park.

No more cattle.

Um...

No more ranchers.

I appreciate you telling me.

As the attorney for the other side, I will concede

that it is completely within your power as Governor.

But as your friend,

you're not just declaring a park, Lucas.

You're declaring war.

McGinty will do whatever he can to stop you.

And if he can't, he will find a way to take revenge.

But we'll still be friends.

Of course.

Now, the least that you could do is buy me dinner.

Hm.

Today's special, an array of Minnie's finest pickles.

Oh.

Leftover chicken.

A chilled picnic squab.

And bread that was baked fresh... yesterday.

Oh.

Bon appetit.

Mmhmm.

Merci.

Thank you.

Um...

To friends.

To life.

Well, how was your night?

I couldn't sleep. My mind is spinning.

I guess you've got a lot to think about.

Here, make yourself some tea.

Oh.

It's all right. Let me help you.

Oh, Mama, I don't want to go to that school.

Angela, what's this?

You were right. I forget things.

I can't even make myself tea.

How will I take care of myself?

Oh, sweetie.

Come and sit down.

I watched you with the other girls...

But I'm not ready.

You remember when you first went sledding?

You stayed at the top of that hill,

waiting for all the other kids to go down one after another.

And then what happened?

You went down with me.

Once.

When we got to the bottom, you had a smile a mile wide.

And you couldn't wait to do it by yourself.

But this isn't sledding.

Oh, I know.

But when I saw you sitting with those girls,

I saw exactly what you've been saying you want...

a community that understands you.

But I still can't...

Okay. Why don't we say this?

Just try it.

Go down that hill once.

And I have a feeling that when you get to the bottom,

you're going to want to run right back up

and try it again with all your new friends.

Ready?

As I'll ever be.

You'll be fine.

Headquarters has arranged an escort

to take you all the way to the courthouse.

You're in safe hands.

And the Pinkertons have agreed to wipe the slate clean

as long as you testify.

Thank you, Constable.

I'll go check on the car.

See.

Now, all you have to do is tell the truth.

Oh, you can think of it like training for your craft.

All you have to do is get up in front of people

and dramatically re-enact the truth.

It's what real actors do.

Do you really think I'm a real actor?

Of course.

Don't you forget the young lady who lit up an audience

and followed her dreams.

I saw her perform Gwendolyn the other night.

She was sensational.

And you don't have to let fake mentalists

like Clyde Maxwell define you.

Well, my attempt to impersonate your book was pretty terrible.

On the contrary, you had us all fooled.

It seems to me you've reached my favorite chapter,

the one where Elsa realizes

she's no longer a stranger to Hope Valley.

I marked it for you.

Oh, thank you.

Ava Riella, I have no doubt

you are going to go out into the world,

make things right, take the world by storm.

But if you ever find yourself in need of a home,

you know where to find it.

Thank you.

Miss Riella's chariot has arrived.

Well... shall we?

Thank you all so much for your generosity.

- Oh, my tab? - It has been taken care of.

It has?

Let's just say singing for our customers

has taken care of it, right Lee?

Yes. Of course.

Don't worry about it, Ava. It's fine.

No, no, I will pay you back. I will pay all of it.

I'll send it from wherever I end up.

Sure. Yes, absolutely. We believe you.

Bye.

Oh, she's a sweet girl.

She'll find her way.

Just like we did.

Oh, no! Ava!

You forgot your trunk!
