Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please?

Stagecoach for Colorado Springs, Soda Springs, and all points south will be

departing in five minutes.

It's going to be a few hours until we hit that first rest stop.

I'll be right back.

I need one ticket for Colorado Springs.

Thanks. Honey, are you ready?

Excuse me. I'm looking for Marshall Wicket. He's not here.

He got drunk last night and he's sleeping off a hangover. What am I going

with this prison?

That's your problem.

No, it's not mine. It's yours.

Hey, you can't do that.

Oh, yes, I can.

I've been laid already.

Marshall Wicket can cut him loose when he sobers up. Now, just a minute. Who do

you think you are?

The name is Cole.

Well, look, Mr. Cole, if you think I'm...

That wouldn't be Kid Cole, would it?

That's all right.

Kid Cole.

Hey, Sully, how you doing? All right. What are you doing here?

Oh, I came to pick up some medical supplies and some things for the new

What are you doing here?

Delivering a prisoner.

And Sister Ruth and I are going on to San Francisco.

Look who I found.

Hello, Sully. Hello, Sister Ruth.

Dr. Mike.

Well, you certainly are looking well.

Married life agrees with you. Sister Ruth's taking good care of me. With the

good Lord's help.

Yeah, but you're doing the cooking.

Speaking of cooking, Dr.

Mike's invited us to Thanksgiving supper.

That's mighty kind of you.

We'd love for you to come to Colorado Springs and be with our family.

Then you can just set two more plates at your table, because we'd love to be

there.

We'd better make sure there's room left on the stage.

I think I can work something out with the ticket agents. Excuse me.

I'll make you a deal.

Well, you can count me out.

Don't you want to surprise Sully and Mom?

I think it'd be real nice to have them give me supper all ready for when they

come back.

If it's an hour, I'll end up doing all the work.

No, you won't.

I'll get Ingrid to help you.

All right.

We can all do something to help. We'll make up a list and give you up the

chores, huh?

So, you gonna be joining us tomorrow?

No. We're gonna be having supper at home.

Oh.

That's nice.

Who's cooking?

We all are.

Well, have you got your turkey yet?

We can just get one for Mr. Bray.

I think you better be quick, because I think the ones he's got are going.

Well, go on over as soon as I finish my pie.

Don't worry.

Everything's going to be fine.

Don't worry, darling.

You'll be fine. This lady's a doctor.

Really? I'm Dr. Quinn. I have a practice in Colorado Springs.

Granny McGee.

My wife, Carrie.

Nice to meet you.

You're Kid Cole, aren't you?

Heard of you. You're a gunfighter.

Retired gunfighter.

With Mr. Cole on board, I know you're going to be well taken care of.

We should go ahead with our plan.

Riding high like you are, I'd say you're carrying a boy.

When's your baby due?

April.

It's January.

Yeah, this is our first child. We're both feeling a little muddled.

Next stop, Soda Spring.

Why don't you go by the window?

Let us help you, ma 'am.

Want another card?

Well, it's in with these.

What about Caleb?

Caleb McGee.

I'll take three.

Full house. Too bad we weren't playing for money.

Sure is.

Over time.

Think I'll quit while I'm ahead.

Here's one I was always partial to. It's Isaiah.

Oh, I had an uncle named Isaiah.

He never took a bath in his whole entire life.

Oh.

What about Gideon?

What about Ezra?

Ezra?

I take it you don't care for that name.

Well, I'd never name a child of mine, Ezra.

Happens to be an old favorite family name of the Clintons.

Maybe you ought to find a new one.

You could name it after the father.

One Brandon McGee is enough in any family.

What's your first name, Mr. Sully?

It's, um... Something you wouldn't want to use. Sort of like Ezra.

Oh! Are you all right?

Did he kick you?

Kick? Yes.

He's moving around.

Perhaps I'd better take a look at you at the weigh station.

No, I'm fine.

Um, maybe I'll just close my eyes for a little while.

Sound like a good idea to me.

I am not baking. I always bake. I want to make the Amazon sugar.

Then I'll bake the pies.

Brian, you've made one pie your whole life.

So? You want fresh fries?

I don't want to take any risks, all right? We'll just buy one from Grace. We

can't do that. It's Thanksgiving.

It has to be homemade.

I'll teach you, but I'm not touching a lowland pig.

Here, you're lit.

Spread out, grab what we need.

All right, come on.

Mr. Bray, I need a turkey. For you and everybody else in this place.

What's the matter with people? Why can't they plan ahead?

That's 15 cents.

Please. You gotta have something.

All right.

You're in luck.

I got one left.

That's it?

You just got to use a little more stuffing in it.

Are you sure it's turkey?

How much? Two dollars.

Hey,

that's my turkey.

He who hesitates goes hungry.

Now what do I do?

I got a special on shotgun shells.

Do we need any sardines?

No.

Oh, Mr. Bray? Yeah?

Do you have any cranberries?

No, allowed.

I got some coming in tomorrow, though. Will you save us a can?

If you pay in advance.

How come?

If you don't show up, I'm stuck with a can of cranberries.

Can't sell them except at this time of year.

Nobody will want to buy them next year, because the can will be a year old.

Maybe you better grab that can of peas, Brian.

Peas!

You still sick?

I'm a little dizzy.

Will he stop?

Not a good idea. It's safer if you can hold out to the weigh station.

How far are we?

Maybe eight miles.

We'd better stop.

No.

I'm not here. I can make it.

Can you make me go any faster?

I've been sitting here so long, my leg's falling asleep.

Shoot!

There goes Thanksgiving dinner.

I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. My leg was killing me.

This is probably the only turkey within 20 miles of here.

We can start looking again in the morning.

We've got to find a turkey.

Molly will be expecting one.

There's a dry creek up ahead.

That's rock creek. The waste station's only a few more miles.

I feel like I'm going to be sick.

Now, you hold on, child.

out and get behind those rocks.

I'll keep them busy while you circle around. That ain't necessary.

Now you throw your gun down, Kid Cole.

What are you doing?

I'm robbing the stagecoach, ma 'am.

McGee, come on down.

You're going to need your jewelry and your purses.

I'll take that cameo.

My mother gave me this.

She's got good taste. Now you take it off.

Go on, give it to her.

I told you it'd be easy.

I'm going to be praying for some way to forgive you.

Don't bother.

These two are way past saving.

I sure hope you people will do the decent thing and bury him.

At least leave us some water.

Why not?

Y 'all have.

How far do you figure we've gone?

Probably two miles.

No, it's more like 50.

Want some?

I should have known something was wrong.

Think of all the time we've wasted helping her pick out a name.

She sure had me fooled.

She had us all fooled.

I bet that's a couple been robbing the stages between here and Wichita.

I was going to give that cameo to Colleen.

Mr. Shea.

You did the right thing giving it up. It's better than getting shot.

We got to keep moving.

What's the hurry?

I saw tracks of a raiding party. Just cross the road up ahead here.

They spot us. We're dead.

Better keep off this road until we get to the weigh station.

Will we get there by dark?

We better. Let's go.

Where's the turkey?

Probably in the next territory by now.

We had one.

Brian scared him off. My leg fell asleep. It's not my fault.

I had a shot.

Brian, if you could have just kept quiet. What are we going to do?

Maybe we can borrow some food.

You don't borrow food.

You do if you don't have any.

The freight wagon's going to come tomorrow. We'll get some food.

We'll be all right. You keep saying that.

We don't have a turkey, we don't have pie fixin', and we don't have... All

right, all right.

We'll ask around.

Maybe someone's got some extra food.

Brian, I don't have any extra turkey, but I got plenty of spinach if you need

some.

Spinach?

Thanks, Miss Grace.

I've got spiced peaches and plenty of yams you're welcome to.

Thanks, Mara.

I'll pick them up tomorrow.

I'll take y 'all on a hunt with me tomorrow.

We'll come home with the turkey.

You're not worried.

My cousin from Ohio brought food.

We'll have plenty of lunderfish. The whole barrel.

Lunderfish? What's that?

It's dried herring.

It's very good.

I didn't think it'd be with gravy on it.

Don't worry, darling.

We'll be having Thanksgiving supper this time tomorrow.

You're right.

The Lord will provide.

How do you know?

Because I asked him.

I know he's going to help us. Well, when you talk to him again, would you ask

him if he can provide some pumpkin pie?

We'd best get going.

I'm going to make it to the weigh station by nightfall.

So, how are we doing?

Well, I won't have to worry about yam. There's plenty this year.

What else have we got?

Let's see. We got corn, spice, peaches, and beans.

We still don't have a turkey.

We got a ham.

We do?

Well, Jake's got a tin one we can buy.

I'd rather eat London.

Hey, Horace, the stagecoach is late.

It's more than late. She's not coming. Freight wagon's not coming neither.

Not coming?

It's a bit boring.

I'll go tell her. Why isn't the stage coming?

Some bad weather coming up near Denver. They're canceling all the stage runs

south. Are Mom and Sally going to be all right?

They probably saw the storm coming and turned back to Denver.

They'll put them up in a hotel till the weather passes.

Don't worry, son.

They'll be with him, Mom.

Guys, give us some more time to get supper together.

Maybe not.

Look, everyone's going to the store.

What's going on?

Oh, hey, Myra, can I get those spicy chicken for me?

I'm sorry, Colleen, but... Well, I got me a gravy in the middle of the day, and

I ate them all.

You've got some yams you can have.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to need that spinach now. I was counting on that

freight delivery, but since that wagon ain't coming, I need it.

Well, maybe we could just eat here. Oh, Brian, I'm sorry. I don't have any

places left. I am sold out and then...

You come on by anyway. I won't have any turkey left, but I'll have plenty of

yam.

How do I know it's any good?

Trust me, I knew this pig personally.

Whatever you say.

What are you doing?

I'd rather eat lunda fist.

It's really quiet down there.

I wonder where the station master is.

Maybe he's inside.

Where'd the horses go?

The corral's been broken open.

Anybody here?

Michaela! Hit! Don't!

Go inside,

hurry! Come on!

Get in!

Go!

I'll get him here.

There he is.

Follow me.

What are they doing?

I think they're figuring out we don't have a gun yet.

It's going to be like shooting fish in a barrel.

Give me a tomahawk.

Stay down. This may blow up in my face.

Dad, you just evened up a little bit.

You think they'll be back tonight?

If they were going to attack, they would have done it already.

They probably sent for help.

to try and slip away in the night.

They got the high ground on us. With that full moon, make a good target.

If the cloud's over, maybe we can make a run for it.

I ain't running nowhere.

Well, maybe they've gone away.

I don't think so, Sister Ruth. Go on over here with Dr. Mike.

Did you see them?

There's at least one rifle out there that left that ridge.

Looks like the best thing we can do is wait until morning.

Well, what'll happen then?

Well, we hope the next stagecoach arrives before more Indians do.

Did you find anything to eat?

Eat?

Oh, there's some biscuit fixings and some beans.

Well, maybe we should see if we can cook up then.

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking it's been a long time since I had to shoot anybody.

How many bullets you got left?

Eight.

There's two of them out there on that ridge with rifles.

I wonder how many bullets they got left.

One for Peter, and one for Paul, and one for the good Lord that made us all.

A little bit of soda, a little bit of salt.

If these biscuits don't turn out, it ain't my fault.

I can never do that.

I have to measure everything.

When you've been cooking as long as I have, you go by faith and feel.

Every time I tried that, it didn't turn out.

Now, don't you worry about it.

It's gonna be fine.

You'll see.

This is all my fault.

Well, how's that?

If I hadn't invited you to come with us, you'd be safely on your way to San

Francisco by now.

The way I figure it, the Lord meant for us to be together.

And I can't think of anybody that I'd rather be celebrating Thanksgiving with

than you and Sully.

Besides, you can help us celebrate our anniversary.

I can't believe it's a year since you've been married.

Me neither.

Sister Ruth, how do you like being married?

Eh.

Sometimes he can be a pain in the... Well, you know what I mean.

Yes, I know what you mean.

It's just that... Every time I wake up and I look in that man's

face, I thank the good Lord for sending him my way.

Yes, we have a lot to be thankful for.

We got baked yams, some mashed yams, and yams surprise.

You get plenty of beans and rice.

Beans and rice are not what you eat at Thanksgiving.

You eat turkey and dressing and cranberries and pumpkin pie. Well, maybe

make popcorn.

That's stupid.

It's not stupid.

They ate it at the first Thanksgiving. I wonder how it tastes with gravy.

Jan and I are going out of first light.

We'll come back with a turkey. And what if you don't?

Then we'll eat other things.

It won't be the same.

I would have had a turkey if Brian hadn't messed it up. You had gone to the

store when you should have instead of eating another piece of pie. You sure

didn't have Thanksgiving special in the first place? Stop it!

Fightin' is not going to put anything on the table.

All I know is you better figure out what we're going to do by morning.

This is not my fault.

Did you sleep?

No.

You need to try to get some rest.

Why don't you sing me a song like you always do?

Dr. Mike's asleep.

No, I'm not.

We've come to the time in the season when family and friends

gather near to offer a prayer of thanksgiving for

blessings we've known through the years to join hands and

thank the Creator now when Thanksgiving is due.

And this year when I count my blessings, I'm thanking the Lord he made

you.

This year when I count my blessings, I'm thanking the Lord

he made you.

I'm grateful for the laughter of children, the sun and the wind

and the rain.

The color of blue in your sweet eyes, the sight of a high

-balling train.

The moonrise over a prairie, an old love that

you've made new.

And this year when I count my blessings, thanking the Lord

he made you.

This year when I count my blessings, I'm thanking the Lord he

made you.

And when the time comes to be going, you're going to be in sorrow

and tears.

I'll kiss you goodbye and I'll go on the way.

Grateful for all of the years.

I thank for all that you gave me.

For teaching me what love can do.

Thanksgiving Day for the rest of my life.

I'm thanking the Lord he made you.

Thanksgiving Day for the rest of my life.

i'm thanking the lord he made you

I'm sorry.

Me too.

I've been tracking that bird all morning.

I didn't see you.

I couldn't... I'm sorry.

And I am thankful you are a bad shot.

How is he?

Why aren't they attacking?

They must be waiting for the states to show up.

Gonna ambush them, then come in here after us.

Well, we have to warn the stage.

I'll light a signal fire after you're gone. What are you talking about?

You know I couldn't run very far.

I'd just slow us all down, get us all caught.

You take off, you got a chance.

I can hold them here for a while.

We're not gonna leave you alone.

You want me.

I'm staying.

We talked about this.

It's what we want to do.

We won't allow it.

No. Dr. Mike, you know it's the only chance any of us got of getting out of

alive.

I got three bullets to cover you. That leaves me five. That's plenty.

We'll be back here with help as soon as we can.

You don't make it.

No hard feeling.

Lord be with you.

Doc!

I sure hope he's listening to you.

They don't got a bank.

Well, let's just pick up them supplies and head on out.

I'll take this, Mr. Wright.

There you go. Thank you.

I'm closing.

Don't you have any more cornstarch? All out.

These potatoes are all sprouting.

They're all we got. Take them or leave them.

All right, we're closing.

Oh, we just need a few things, mister.

Well, that's about all he's got.

That's it?

Yeah. All right, this is $2 .30.

Oh, that's a pretty cameo.

Thanks.

Matthew, this lady has a pen just like Dr. Mike's.

That's just like the one that Grandma gave me.

Yeah.

Sure looks like it.

Where'd you get that?

I... Grab the money.

Give me.

Are my kids going to be all right?

They probably walked to the next way station.

Y 'all get down on the floor.

Get out.

This door is going to get shot.

I'm glad to see you.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I knew you'd be all right.

Come on, we'd best get on after them robbers.

We lost their trail a long time ago, Lorne.

We're not going to find them.

What about those engines?

Time up.

Take them to Fort Collins. Stand trial for the murder of that station agent.

All right, let's go back to town.

Still something we got to do.

Who wants to know?

Are you all right?

I winged a couple of them before they decided to give up and come after you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I was just thinking the same thing.

Turkey. Turkey.

Pumpkin pie?

Pumpkin pie.

Sure smells good.

Oh, Shelly, where you been? Hey, what are you doing here?

Hello, Brian. I asked him to join us for Thanksgiving supper.

I asked Claude Benson, too.

He helped me get a big turkey. I hope all of you are hungry.

You bet.

I sure am.

Dr. Quinn, Sully.

I hope you don't mind if saying grace takes a little longer today.

You've got a lot to be thankful for this year.

Amen.

I was just thinking the same thing.

We've come to the time in the season when family and friends

gather near to offer a prayer of thanksgiving or

blessings we've known through the years to join hands and

thank the Creator now when Thanksgiving is due.

And this year when I count my blessings, I'm thanking the Lord he made

you.

This year when I count my blessings, I'm thanking the Lord

he made you.

I'm grateful for the laughter of children, the sun and the wind

and the rain.

The color of blue in your sweet eyes.

The sight of a high -balling train.

The moonrise over a prairie.

And, oh, love that you've made new.

And Thanksgiving Day for the rest of my life.

I'm thanking the Lord he made you.

And Thanksgiving Day.

For the rest of my life, I'm thanking the Lord he made you.
