Previously on When Calls the Heart...

This is why Governor Bouchard's park is so important.

It's called the Great Timber Wolf.

They flourished here.

Governor, this is Miss Edie Martell.

There may be a problem.

The ranchers need that land in order to survive.

If we can rethink the size of the park.

What are we doing here, Lucas?

- I'm going home. - How is Oliver settling in?

It sounds like he could use some confidence.

This is good work, Cadet. Just take the win.

Henry, there's nothing wrong with starting a business.

Couldn't have done it without y'all.

Welcome to the Valley Voice Radio Hour.

Welcome to the Kids Minute on the Valley Voice Radio Hour.

I'm Toby.

And I'm Cooper.

This week we're talking about kid ventures

like the Hope Valley Hazelnut Company.

At first, it just started as comic book money.

Captain Billy.

Which has grown

and now our friends Opal, Emily and Angela

have started a hazelnut cart on Main Street.

And everyone's loving them.

They sure are delicious, Toby.

Free samples, freshly roasted.

This has been The Kids Minute,

part of the Valley Voice Radio Hour.

Give it time.

What about a pony party, huh?

You and your friends can take turns braiding Newton's mane.

Since I'm turning 17 and not seven...

This year, I'd like to try something a little different.

- Sleepover? - Last year.

Scavenger hunt?

Two years ago.

I want to try something with just us kids.

- You mean... - I mean, I want it to just be my friends.

Oh...

You and Mrs. Thornton should go out

and do something fun... on your own.

You never go on normal dates.

Yes, we do.

We go on dates.

We went on that picnic.

A picnic with your kids is not a date, Dad.

- Hi. - Hi.

Hey. I heard Timmy got a job at the sandwich counter.

He's saving money to spend on a girl.

Timmy has a girlfriend?

She's from Benson Hills.

You think they're going on dates?

I don't want to date until I get into college.

Me either.

Wolves are definitely more interesting than boys.

Nice seeing you guys.

Hi.

Hi.

How's your day going?

It's a lot better now.

So I just got dating advice from my daughter.

Apparently, picnics with children don't count.

Mm.

Well, maybe we should plan something more grown-up.

Really?

Care to, uh, step into my office and discuss.

Sir?

Mrs. Thornton.

Hi, Oliver.

It's good to see you.

Uh, Little Jack told me I should tell you...

you're it.

We still have to finish that game of tag.

Right?

Um, sir, I laundered the bedding

and sewed up a hole in one of the blankets.

Wow.

Cleanliness. Orderliness. Completing appointed tasks.

Well done, Cadet.

All that's left is your writing sample

and you'll be ready for Friday

When I'm giving Superintendent Hargraves

your one-month progress report.

Uh, right. It's on your desk, sir.

If you don't mind,

I still have some work to do in the stables.

Oh, yeah. Go ahead.

Is everything okay with Oliver?

Not with his writing.

A summary of this old case file.

I mean, between the grammatical errors

and the invented spelling, it barely makes sense.

I should flunk him.

I can see why his writing is at a fourth or fifth grade level.

I don't get it.

He told me he read Bill's book more than a few times.

That's not exactly a children's book.

Right. But reading and writing are two very different skills.

It seems to me like Oliver could use some formal instruction.

Maybe I could help.

I guess this is more of a job for a teacher than a Mountie.

Have him come by the school tomorrow morning.

I appreciate that.

Now, um...

about that date.

You should probably get that.

All right.

But then maybe later we can talk about

spending some alone time together.

Time that doesn't involve a picnic.

I like the sound of alone time.

Hello?

Henry's practically giving those hazelnuts away.

People only have so much disposable income.

Well, Jed never should have bought

that fruit stand in the first place

if he couldn't make a go of it.

Hm.

Oh, don't forget bridge tonight.

Mm-hmm.

I had no idea Molly had a soft spot for Jed Campbell.

She might be the only one. He can be quite difficult.

Well I'll be.

What is it?

Well, if I'm not mistaken...

A double-headed eagle.

And if I know my coins, this is pretty rare.

Let me just consult with my coin collecting guide.

- Oh. - Yes.

Very rare and solid gold.

- Well. - Oh.

There are barely any in circulation,

mostly in coin collections or museums.

Well, this must be a mistake?

How could a shopper know its true value and spend it here?

No offense.

It does make a fun human interest story.

We could find the shopper.

Ooh. Headline in tomorrow's Voice.

Humble local merchants find gold coin.

Invite spender to come forward and reclaim. Hm?

We do?

Well...

Yeah, well, it was nice while it lasted.

It's a real beaut.

I understand, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.

Ledbetter is a no.

He says the proposed parkland is too large.

And can we go with something smaller.

He has been listening to more persuasive arguments.

Edie Martell?

I must say she fooled us.

While you weren't looking,

she locked up almost all the committee's votes.

Your grand national park has been reduced

to the size of a playground.

Lee will not accept that nor should he, nor should we.

She seems so demure and reasonable.

Oh, don't be taken in by the glasses.

She is a shark.

A barracuda!

I wouldn't go that far.

I meant it as a compliment.

To complicate matters,

the Jeanette Aucoin trial has been moved up.

- What? - To tomorrow.

You have more enemies than you realize, Governor.

My advice to you is out of sight out of mind.

Just leave town?

There is a crowd of reporters gathering in the hall

who don't want to hear about your park

or your do-goodery, only your scandalous past.

Well, that will not be an issue, Edwin.

I can handle them.

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

The Governor is about to embark on a rural listening tour.

I am not.

May I suggest the side exit?

Just a moment. Just wait here for the Governor.

Very busy.

Hi, Mrs. Thornton.

You wanted to see me?

Oliver. Yes. Thank you for coming.

Um, I hope you don't mind, but I read your written report.

The one assigned to you by Constable Grant and...

Well, we were wondering if you might like some help

with your writing skills.

I could help you if you'd be open to that.

Yes. Thank you.

Help with what exactly?

Oh. Um... antecedents.

Possessive nouns.

Verb conjugation.

Do you know what I'm talking about?

Not really.

Okay.

Why don't you tell me more about the classes you've taken?

Where did you go to school?

Um, Briarcliff in Hamilton.

All right, let's get to work.

Oh.

Bill. Good morning.

Rosemary, interesting article in the Voice today

about the gold coin.

Oh. You think so?

Has anyone come forward to claim it?

Not yet.

You can't fool me, Bill Avery.

You know something?

Anything you'd care to share with our readers?

That would be a big no comment.

And you can tell Lee

that new will he asked me to draw up is finished.

He can drop by my office whenever he wants to sign.

What new will?

He didn't mention it to you?

No.

Oh.

Uh. Well, just forget I said anything.

Bill.

Lawyer, client privilege, Rosemary.

Do me a favor,

- don't tell him I told you. - But...

Much obliged.

Let's go around the corner okay?

I'll be right there.

Hey, Lee, what's all this?

Oh, this is just, uh...

it's just me handling a thing, that's all.

Yeah.

Hickam, what's going on?

Lee hasn't said a word, but...

just bring up Lucas's name or the park,

or even mention Capital City, he glowers.

Well, this can't be good.

Excuse me.

The porter told me all the other compartments are full.

My, my.

Miss Martell.

Or should I say, Mrs. Martell?

Oh, please call me Edie, Governor.

Or should I not call you anything at all?

You seem to be traveling incognito.

I like to move amongst the people without a lot of fanfare.

Find out what's on people's minds.

Mm. Would you like to know what's on my mind?

I think you've made your opinions quite clear.

And it's because of them that a national park will become a puddle.

I represent my clients as best as I can.

I'm truly sorry if there are unintended consequences.

Maybe if we work together, we could find a compromise.

You have everyone fooled, don't you?

The spectacles, straight-laced.

Well, you're dealing with an old gambler.

And what I see is a pool shark

posing as a Sunday school teacher.

Well, I don't know whether to take that as a compliment,

especially coming from Lucas Bouchard.

Gangster beauties bootlegging boyfriend.

My, my.

If you don't mind, Mrs. Martell,

I think it would be best if we steer clear of each other in the future.

Well, I hate to tell you, I'm heading to Hope Valley

to Uncle Ernie's ranch.

Uncle Ernie's ranch? Yes.

He was a respectable cattleman.

I hope that you enjoy your time

way, way up in the hills, far away from us townsfolk.

Faith...

well you seem especially happy today?

I can't remember better weather.

Oh, please tell Lee he can come in anytime.

My week just freed up.

Lee, come in? For what?

Oh.

He didn't tell you.

Well, in that case, never mind.

What?

You think I would mind?

Rosemary, there is such a thing

as doctor patient confidentiality,

so could you not say anything?

Well... I...

Hi, Margaret, it's Elizabeth Thornton.

It's good to hear your voice, too.

I was hoping I could ask you a question.

You taught at Briarcliff, right?

I thought I'd heard something about that.

It's such a shame.

How long has it been closed?

Oh, I see.

How have you been?

I feel like we should stop by the soda fountain later.

Yeah. We can plan your birthday party.

I'll ask Emily and Angela.

Hey, Opal. It's been a while.

It's me Earl Wyatt.

- Oh, right. I remember. - Yeah.

You and your brother thought it was funny

to embarrass a second grader...

about Brownie Bear.

Oh. Come on, no. We didn't mean it.

But, hey, let me apologize, all right?

Earl Wyatt, no longer a bully.

You can just... you can call me Wyatt, though.

Oh. Um, this is my friend, Allie.

I like the pigtails.

So what brings you back to Hope Valley?

Well, my dad works for the railroad,

so I get a free pass to ride the rails anywhere I like.

Sounds adventurous.

Sure is, sure is, yeah. But I miss this place.

I wanted to come back, see if I can find a job.

Let me know if you hear anything.

Sure, yeah. I will.

Um, we... we will.

- Yeah. - And welcome back.

Yeah. Thanks.

Pigtails. So rude.

It's good to see you.

Hi, everybody.

Huh. The Governor's back.

Hickam, Hickam. What are you doing?

Michael, it's all right. Relax.

Lucas. Governor, hi.

Welcome back.

- Thank you. - Looking good, Governor.

Bill.

Michael.

Hello, Lee.

Hello, Lucas.

It's always good to have you back, Governor.

Any particular reason for your visit?

Well, it seems like a good time to return.

Check in with the people,

ready and willing for a frank and open exchange of views.

That's great.

Bill, isn't that great?

Lee, isn't that great?

Yes Michael, it's great.

That's great.

So who's watching the office when you're here?

Oh, let me guess.

Edwin.

Edwin? You brought him back?

He's changed.

- Slightly. - Yeah.

Well, I'm surprised the viper let you out of the snake pit.

Gentlemen, it's been a long journey.

If you'll excuse me, I would like to get settled in.

Well, this is not my business, but stick with me.

Henry ran out of space to store his hazelnuts

and, well, see, we figured mostly

you'd have important business in the Capital.

Um, well, technically speaking, at least it's...

Mm-hmm.

Meet me in 20 minutes where we said.

- Mum's the word. - Right.

Hi, Oliver.

Hi, Mrs. Thornton.

Mind if I sit?

I reached out to an old friend of mine from teacher's college.

She was a teacher at Briarcliff.

Oh.

When it was open.

But it closed down five years ago.

I didn't go to Briarcliff.

I... I didn't go anywhere.

I didn't think anyone would check.

I'm so dumb.

Oliver, you're not dumb.

You're very bright.

In fact, a lot of people never finish school

for a variety of reasons.

Do you want to tell me about it?

I'm here to listen.

I didn't want people to know.

Well, whatever it is, I'm sure we can figure it out together.

I promise.

But never had anyone like a teacher

I could trust before.

Why don't you tell me everything.

Start from the beginning.

What? Lee!

There you are.

Rosie. Hi. I was just running out.

Well. We haven't had a chance to talk,

and I really wanted to check in with you about a few things.

Oh, that sounds great and I'd love to talk.

I really would... soon. Just not right now,

because I gotta run. But I'll be back soon, I promise. Okay?

- Bye. Bye! - But, Lee...

What?

Why did he have a backpack?

Rosemary, I really need to find Nathan.

- Shhh! - Why are we whispering?

Why are we sneaking in the back?

There's something very odd is going on.

Lee is acting very cagey and evasive.

He's not the only one.

You're lucky we still had a set left in stock.

There's not too much demand for bear bells these days.

Oh, thanks, Ned.

He's buying bear bells.

- What bells? - Shh!

Hopefully I won't need them, but you never can tell.

Where are you headed?

Oh, we're just going to do a little trailblazing

up off the North Road towards the clearing there.

Oh, I haven't been up there for years.

Why is he going there?

You could always just ask him.

Elizabeth. No, no, no, no.

That would only give him a reason not to tell me.

You know, that doesn't make any sense.

I don't want him to see me act peculiar.

I suspect that ship has sailed.

Anyway, thank you so much.

- Certainly. - Take care.

- Cheers. - Ladies...

Can I help you look for something?

We were just leaving.

- Hurry up, Elizabeth! - I'm coming!

- Hickam too? - That is odd. I wonder what they're up to.

Precisely.

Tally ho, Elizabeth!

Elizabeth!

Oliver.

What are you doing?

I thought you were going to talk to Mrs. Thornton.

I did, sir.

Here.

This is for you.

I don't understand.

You're resigning.

I will finish my rounds and my stable duties

and be gone in the morning.

It's been an honor to work with you, sir.

I'm sorry.

Boy, this is more fun than I thought.

Yeah. Yeah, it really is.

I'm glad.

Oh, and thanks for holding on to this for me, by the way.

Appreciate that.

Okay. Let's see.

Boy, I don't get out here much, but

it just gets better and better.

Yeah, it sure does. Unless you know who has his say.

You know who? Who is you know who?

I don't know.

We need to get closer.

Follow me.

You hear that?

Hm?

We're gonna need a better look.

We're exposed.

Here, cover yourself?

Oh!

Okay.

Oh!

- Lee! - Mm.

Lee, did you just see that bush move?

So what do you think?

What do you think?

- What do you think about what? - Rosemary, I don't know.

Oh, it's great.

Let's go.

- Not bad. Right? - Yeah. It's really nice.

Bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear!!!

Bear! Bear!

Bear!!!

Rosemary.

Hello. Lee.

- Did you follow us? - No.

Yes.

We were just out on a nature walk.

Actually, we were curious about what is going on here.

Hey.

Hickam?

Lee wants to make a new hiking trail and name it after Goldie,

because Lucas shrunk the park to the size of a postage stamp

to appease the ranchers and he changed the name.

I'm so sorry.

Lee, is this true?

It's a little more complicated than that, but I...

I guess I thought that if I established

a Goldie trail, then...

Lucas would see that it has to be a park.

Lee.

It's not much, but, uh...

Oh.

Oh, I think it's wonderful.

Very attractive.

It is?

And the perfect thing to discuss

as we are making our way back to town.

- What do you say? - I guess I was hoping

that Lucas would change his mind

before you found out.

Lee.

I hate that you had to worry.

Will I promise to try not to.

Good luck.

But I do have two little questions.

What is this about a new will

and... and a doctor's appointment?

You made a doctor's appointment without telling me?

It's just routine stuff, I promise.

Well, you know how my imagination runs wild with these things.

But why would he resign?

Did he say anything to you?

Yes. I wanted to find you earlier,

but then, Rosemary... it doesn't matter.

He told me that he lied about attending Briarcliff.

That school closed years ago.

He lied?

Yes, but only because...

He needed to...

for his application to the Mounties.

Yes, but there's more to it than that, Nathan.

It doesn't matter.

You should hear him out.

I don't have a choice. This crosses a line.

Even if he's already admitted to it

and he's ready to make up for it?

Look, I've created a week by week plan,

a year of his education, and I'm not going to fail him

until I've given him a chance.

It's great, really, but you don't understand.

Here's what I understand.

You don't give up on a child.

It's not just up to me.

Ethically, I have to report this.

Ethically, you have to listen to his side of things.

He's our responsibility now. Under our care.

- Our? - Yes, our.

I'm his teacher.

So where did you mysteriously disappear to all afternoon?

Lee insisted on hiking into the woods.

It turned out it was actually kind of sweet.

- He wants to name a new trail after Goldie. - Ah.

So Lee and Lucas are working out a solution?

No, not at all.

It's worse, if possible.

I feel like I'm caught in the middle

between two of my closest friends.

Mike, they're playing the Charleston.

Do you remember how everyone was doing it in Chicago?

Do I?

Allie... looks like Wyatt's enjoying

the new job we helped him find.

And he's doing a new dance.

I've never seen anything like it.

I like the music.

Hey, maybe we could do that for my birthday.

A dance party?

You mean with boys?

Why not?

I'm so excited.

What are you gonna wear?

I don't know. What about you?

Oh. Rough day so far, huh?

Let me guess. Is it the kid or Elizabeth?

Both.

Well, maybe I need to sit down, too.

Oliver lied on his application.

He never graduated high school,

and Elizabeth thinks he deserves a second chance.

And you don't think so?

I like Oliver.

I think... I think he does terrific work.

So you want to do right by the kid,

but you have your oath and obligation as a Mountie.

Pretty much. Yeah.

You know, it's not against the rules

to only tell your superior officer what he needs to know.

Oliver is your cadet.

His training is your responsibility.

Have you talked to him?

You sound like Elizabeth.

Well, maybe you should listen to her.

Speaking of cases, I need to borrow one of your files.

It's nothing you need to know about just yet.

Sure. Yeah.

Oh.

Perfect order.

Oh.

Thank Oliver for me.

Mrs. Thornton.

Yes, Nathan.

I read your lesson plan for Oliver.

It's perfect.

Right down to the books to read.

He'd be lucky to have you as a teacher.

Just like I'm lucky to have you...

to tell me when I'm wrong.

Thank you.

That really means a lot to me.

You never give up on people.

It's one of the many reasons why I love you.

I love you, too.

So what are we going to do about Oliver?

We don't give up on him.

Here.

Enjoy.

Thank you, Minnie.

And I appreciate you letting me set up shop here.

As I mentioned to Joseph,

my office is currently occupied at the moment.

Tough day?

You know, I didn't run for office for the adulation,

but I did not expect to make enemies out of old friends.

If they're true friends, you can always patch things up.

Oh, trust me, I've tried.

Unfortunately, someone no longer thinks I'm a man of my word.

Any idea why they think that?

Yes, I have an inkling, but it's all rooted in reason.

My mother used to say, if you want to reconcile with someone,

you got to knock three times.

I think I could knock a hundred times.

Well, you're welcome to stay as long as you need, Governor.

But if you don't mind,

could you share the table for the dinner rush?

Yes, of course.

- Absolutely. - Thank you.

- Oh, no. - Oh. Funny how this keeps happening.

Funny.

What brings you down to Hope Valley?

As I recall, your ranch is closer to Benson Hill.

As you know, my real profession is in law,

and I'm looking to start a local practice.

But there seems to be quite the shortage of office space.

Mrs. Canfield said I could work out of here for a few days.

I hope you don't mind.

If you do...

It's a big table. We can share.

Oh, so you do believe in shared use.

Oliver.

Have a seat.

I have to make a decision.

But before I do, I'd like to hear your side of the story.

Why don't you tell Constable Grant what you told me

about why you never graduated?

My last foster family didn't give me permission to go to school.

Since I was just a farmhand, school was a waste of time.

When I aged out, they said I could stay on,

but I guess I wanted something more.

The Mounties were recruiting.

I had to lie on my application.

That's why I quit, sir.

So the lie wouldn't reflect badly on you.

You can tell Superintendent Hargraves you didn't know.

Thank you for that.

It shows a lot of loyalty.

Look, I have to think about this.

So until then, you're dismissed.

But you're not discharged.

You're to remain on duty and complete your assignments.

And then when Hargraves arrives,

I'll give him my report.

Yes, sir.

You know, technically, Hargraves made me responsible

for his training.

So I think it's my duty to make my cadet a Mountie.

Mm.

You sound good.

Are you sure?

I reviewed all the tests myself.

You're in great shape, Lee.

You're absolutely sure there's nothing hidden in there?

Because, you know, my father was...

I read that in your file.

He was your age when he died?

He was.

Ah.

I've been thinking about it a lot lately.

What I'm leaving him behind. A family, and Rosie and...

I guess what I'm worried most about is, have I done enough?

Have I done enough for Goldie to remember me after I'm gone?

Leland, you have done more than enough.

A lot of men go through this at this age,

especially if they lost their own fathers too young.

You have to remember, you're not your father.

And going off your chart, I'd say you can expect to live

to give Goldie away at her wedding.

Who knows, maybe become a granddad,

watch them grow up, too.

All right.

If you say so. Thank you, Faith.

I appreciate that.

Oh, um...

maybe we don't tell Rosie about this.

She worries.

Let's, uh... let's tell her my back was acting up.

Secret's safe with me.

Excellent. Thank you. Bye.

He's here!

At ease, Cadet.

Superintendent. Good afternoon.

I'd like to hear your full report.

The cadet can recite the rulebook by heart.

He performs tasks promptly and diligently.

And the writing portion?

The writing portion has been completed.

Well, there's always room for improvement,

he shows gumption and loyalty.

And with hard work, I believe one day

he'll make a fine Mountie.

What about you, Cadet?

How would you assess your performance so far?

I'd like to prove myself worthy

of Constable Grant's respect one day, sir.

Let's see where things stand in a month.

Good work, Constable.

What is this?

This? Oh, nothing really. It's just an unsolved case.

Bill, did you want to tell me what's in the file?

Well, if you're going to twist my arm.

It's the same coin.

An entire cache from the mint.

Twenty thousand coins stolen from a locked safe

aboard a secured freight car.

Never recovered.

And you think this could be one of them?

If we can trace this,

we might well be on our way to solving

the great Rocky Mountain Train Robbery of 1907.

We?

Care to join?

I got your note.

I told Allie she could stay over if she gets tired.

You wanted to see me?

Our cadet passes inspection.

Nathan, that's wonderful!

Our cadet?

Yeah, well, you're his teacher.

That's really great news.

Yeah, it is.

But the real reason I wanted to see you

was that I, uh, had an idea for our date.

Our date?

Yeah.

I thought we could, um... sneak away.

What if people see us?

They won't.
