[Teen Cody] Hey, have you ever thought of riding a bull?

[Teen Friend] No.

[Teen Cody] Come on! Don't you wanna know what it's like?

Don't do it! Cody, this is stupid.

-Mr. Clarence will kill us! -He will not!

-[bull snorts] -Let's just go!

[bull continues snorting]

Cody!

[bull continues snorting]

I'm outta here.

[Mr. Clarence] Hey! Cody Gunner, is that you?

Mr. Clarence?

-Trespassing again? -I have to go.

Let's talk, son.

This is the third time, Cody. What are you doin' sneakin' around here?

What is it about the bulls? You know they're dangerous, don't ya?

Yeah. I mean, yes, sir.

Either you're suicidal or just plain stupid. Which is it?

I like the thrill of it.

-I feel- -Big?

-In control? -No, it's...

I can't explain it.

Son, there's somethin' meaner than a bull,

somethin' even the best riders can't tame.

Any guess?

[Bobby Ray] Good morning, Las Vegas!

This is Bobby Ray on 95.6, The Howl,

Vegas's hottest country station.

It is a big day, as the NFR kicks off tonight.

Between bull riding, team roping, barrel racing, and more,

there is plenty to see in the days to come,

but for now,

we have an exclusive interview.

We've got champion bull rider, Cody Gunner, on the show!

-Cody, welcome to the show! -Oh, thank you for having me.

-Oh, you've been to Vegas before? -Oh, yes, sir.

And the NFR three times?

I have.

You face ferocious bulls every night.

You've gotta be somewhat twisted to do that, no?

Why, I guess I like to think of it as driven.

[laughs] Okay! So what drives Cody Gunner?

Pride?

Pain?

Well, somethin' like that.

[chuckles] Well, what about the future?

Any plans to get married, settle down?

Well, no plans,

but yeah, sure.

I mean, that sounds nice.

Maybe sooner versus later.

[crowd cheers]

All right!

[crowd continues cheering]

[upbeat rock music]

[announcer] It's been a long, tough year,

but the road to gold starts right here in Las Vegas!

[announcer 2] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the opening night

of the National Finals Rodeo. Let's meet your competitors!

-[announcer] He's a Chicago-born... -Go get 'em!

...Texas-bred, Jesus lovin' cowboy!

-Let's give a warm welcome... -Look at him.

...to Trey Cummins!

You played it awful careful on the radio today.

Maybe sooner than later?

-[crowd roars] -Yeah.

We'll see.

Hey, okay.

So you and Ali?

-[crowd continues cheering] -[upbeat rock music continues]

We've been seeing each other.

[chuckles] Yes!

I knew it! Congrats, man.

Thank you.

-She's a great girl. -She is.

[announcer] And here to take the bull by the horns...

Okay, well, why the secrecy?

[stammers] You know, we're just hanging out.

No big deal.

So you are just friends?

Um...

-Something like that. -It's Cory McGreeney.

[crowd cheers]

[announcer] Next up, an old soul

-with a heart of gold... -[scoffs] What a line!

...who loves to party

-and dominate his bull! -There it is.

[crowd cheers]

-Keep it classy. -[announcer] Dalton Kenny!

[crowd roars and applauds]

[crowd continues roaring and applauding]

[announcer 2] Our next bull rider is a returning champion

and the Prince of the Pen, a PRCA man among men,

rank number one amongst the bull riders coming into the NFR.

Make way for Cody Gunner!

[crowd cheers and applauds]

[announcer] Here's our number one ranked barrel racer

going into the championship, Ali Daniels!

[announcer 2] Followin' up, hot on Ali's heels,

-Lydia Matthews! -[announcer 1] Let's cheer 'em on!

Give it up for this year's NFR cowgirls and cowboys!

[crowd roars]

Starting off barrel racing, it's Lydia Matthews,

a contender for the buckle.

[announcer 2] She'll need a good score to keep pace with the competition.

[crowd continues roaring]

[horse hooves trotting]

Barrel racing is off to a great

and competitive start with Lydia Matthews

-snagging the lead with a 14.1. -I mean, talk about a cannon ball.

I mean, races like that are what make the NFR

the premier event of the season.

Okay, Ace, you got this. Every barrel.

-Up next, in second place... -Right?

-behind Lydia Matthews... -You're gonna be fine.

...but expected to win it all here in Las Vegas,

the Queen herself, your favorite, Ali Daniels.

[mellow pop music]

[crowd roars]

-You got this! -[announcer 2] She's making good time

as she comes around that first barrel.

[crowd roars]

[mellow pop music continues]

[crowd continues roaring]

And that's her final barrel.

Wow, well, that's a clean turn, that was.

I mean, that horse is running like it's late for the trough.

[announcer chuckles] Good ride.

That is a record time, folks. 13.8.

Can you believe it?

Buckle your seat belts, everyone.

[announcer 2] You know, I was talking to Ali earlier today,

and she said that, "This floor is her horse's favorite."

-I have a feeling she wasn't kidding. -[chuckles] Oh, yeah.

Expect a fierce competition between her

and Lydia Matthews over the next few days.

[bulls trotting]

[crowd roars]

[pen clattering]

[bulls lowing]

[announcer] Up next tonight on Jagged is Cody Gunner!

He'll have his hands full with this bull.

If he can stay on this go round,

that puts him in the top earners of the night's events.

-[whistle trills] -[gate clatters]

Look at the blow out of the shoot!

Jagged has a 92% average buck off with 49 outs.

That is not a bull you wanna mess with.

[crowd roars]

-[bell clattering] -[bull lowing]

[dramatic instrumental music]

Once again, an incredible job by Cody Gunner.

I mean, he has really set the bar here tonight.

[announcer 1] Yeah, let's see if it can be met.

-[crowd roars] -[bell rattles]

[crowd continues roaring]

[phone clicks]

[phone clicks]

-Hello? -Brother, you're a champion!

What's up, buddy?

I'm not a champion quite yet.

You will be. Guess what?

What?

I get to play in a football game this weekend.

What?

-No way? -Way!

And it's going to be all my friends.

-Well, that sounds awesome. -And Dad took me to church,

and then to Subway.

I got the Italian meatball sub.

It really is rich, brother!

The way a sandwich should be.

That sounds like a great day.

It has been.

Mom's washing dishes, so I stole her phone.

You coming for Christmas?

Uh... Maybe.

Maybe. Hey, can you actually put Mom on for a second, buddy?

-[Carl Joseph] Oh, yeah. Ma! -Thank you.

Cody's on the phone!

-He wanna talk to you! -[Mary] Hey!

Hey! How are ya?

So Mike is takin' everyone to church now?

Don't tell me you're falling for that?

Well, he's makin' an effort.

He's trying, Cody.

Yeah, and that makes it okay?

Uh... Well, for your brother's sake, yes.

And I can't say that it's not nice to have him around.

You gotta be kiddin' me?

Look, Cody, why don't you just come home for Christmas,

-and you can see for yourself? -No!

No, and be there for what, a dysfunctional family reunion?

No, thanks, Mom, I'll pass.

-Cody. -Mama, I gotta run.

Talk to you later.

Okay.

[phones clicking off]

[Cody sighs]

? Jesus saves ?

? Love your neighbor as you love yourself ?

? Love God above everything else ?

? Go to the ends of the earth and preach the word ?

? He said, go to the ends of the earth ?

? And preach the word ?

[group applauds]

[man] And those who are competing today,

we pray that you keep them safe.

Let us walk in your love today.

You're our strength and our source.

We pray these things in the mighty name of Jesus.

-Hallelujah. -Hallelujah!

-Hallelujah. -Amen.

[group whispers indistinctly]

[chairs clattering]

[group whispers indistinctly]

I have always loved this. Always have.

Yeah, I know.

So, it was a good sermon.

You okay?

-Huh? -You seem a little quiet.

I... I'm just a little tired.

Okay.

Well, gonna take a nap later?

-Yeah. I am gonna go grab some breakfast. -Okay.

You wanna come?

-I'll catch up with you. -Okay.

[group chatters indistinctly]

[Cody] Hey.

Surprised to see you here.

Well, I heard music.

So this is cowboy church? I've never been.

Well, you should come sometime. It's nice.

Hey, listen, I gotta...

-I gotta run, sorry. -Oh, no. No, hey, hang on!

I feel like we barely got to talk yesterday.

-It was a crazy night. -Yeah, yeah.

Feels like some kinda dream, you know?

Getting to do what you love, and fans cheering for you,

-it's all so... -Thrilling.

I was gonna say humbling.

[chuckles lightly] Better.

How you feelin', you know, about finals?

Yeah, yeah, I'm feeling fine.

See you tonight?

I don't know, Cody.

It just kinda feels like too much too fast.

No, what do you mean?

I... I just... I mean that neither of us can afford

to be distracted right now, especially with finals,

and I think that the next 10 days are gonna

-be absolutely crucial. -It's your mama, isn't it?

What? No! No, no, it doesn't have anything to do with her. It's...

Cody, [exhales loudly] it's really complicated,

-and cystic fibrosis isn't just some- -Ali, if I was

worried about complicated, I wouldn't be standing here.

I know your situation, Ali.

And I thrive in complicated.

Let me talk to your mama tonight after the events.

Okay.

-Okay? -Yeah.

11?

Perfect.

I'm gonna... I'm gonna go get something to eat with Mom,

but I'll see you tonight.

See you tonight.

[Cody exhales loudly]

[insects chirping]

Big deal.

You ride bulls.

It's just a mom.

Mom's are great.

[knocking on door]

Cody?

You're right on time. Come in.

Hi, ma'am.

Can I get you some coffee or tea?

-No, ma'am. -Are you hungry?

Oh, no, ma'am. Thank you.

Well, Cody, relax. Take a seat. [chuckles]

Thank you, Mrs. Daniels.

It's a very nice trailer.

Never seen the inside.

Thank you. We do the best that we can to make it cozy.

It's nice to meet you officially.

Likewise.

I've heard some stories.

Oh. [chuckles nervously] Good ones, I hope?

Not exactly.

You know, I hear you're quite the ladies man.

Well, better than bein' hated, right?

I'm sorry, I... [chuckles nervously]

-I just- -[Sarah stammers]

Cody, I just...

[mug thuds]

I just needed to know that you...

What are your intentions with Ali?

My intentions?

Yeah.

I mean, you guys have been spending a lot of time together.

Well, Ali, you know, she's made it clear.

I know she's sick,

but I also know she's not looking for anything serious.

I guess I'd like to change your mind.

Your daughter is unlike anyone I've ever met...

She's smart, and she's super talented, driven.

She sees the world a little deeper.

I don't have to tell you she's beautiful.

And I know I have a past,

not denyin' that,

but that's where it stays, in the past.

I can promise you that.

Well...

-Time will tell. -Yes, ma'am.

And that's really the thing.

It's about time.

Hi.

-Hey. -Hey.

Well, I just needed to understand who the man was that was talking

to my daughter every night under my window for the past month and a half,

-keepin' me awake at night. -Oh, I am sorry about that.

No, I have earplugs.

That's good. [chuckles nervously]

Come on, give me a hug.

Well, I'm gonna go to bed, so you two have fun.

-I'm so nervous! -[Ali giggles]

I noticed.

[sighs] I think I did okay.

-[Ali laughs] -[Cody groans]

She loved you.

-[Ali giggles] -I don't know about that.

You're up the first two rounds, beatin' Lydia.

That has to feel good?

Yeah. Well, she is fast.

I just have to be faster. Just...

I don't know. It's just been harder lately.

Are you tired?

Yeah, the NFRs always make me tired.

Cystic fibrosis tired?

No, no, it's just... It's been a long season, you know?

I mean, aren't you tired?

I looked it up, Ali, CF,

and they say it's deadly.

Is that true?

Well, it can be,

but I'm doing everything I need to do.

And they have better treatments now.

Yeah, well, like what?

Well, do you remember the hot date?

-Of course. -[Ali laughs]

Well, it was less of a hot date,

and more of a tune up.

I get them, like, a few times a year.

They just, you know,

help clear out my lungs, and keep me strong.

I get 'em at my hospital back home,

and, you know, my doctor gives me updates.

Well, was there an update this time?

No. No, no, no, no. I'm fine, Cody.

Okay.

You'd tell me, right?

Of course, yes.

So do you have plans for Christmas?

Are you gonna go see your family?

You never...

You never told me why.

Told you what?

The real answer

about why you ride so angry.

I mean, I know there's family stuff,

but, you know, everybody has that.

So what is it?

[train horn blares in the distance]

[somber instrumental music]

My dad, he left when I was 11.

Carl Joseph was just three.

I heard him

right before he walked out.

He told my mom...

He said he couldn't be a father to someone like Carl Joseph,

which is crazy!

Carl Joseph's the best person in the world.

But it was obvious, you know,

the thing he didn't like about my brother.

It was wrong,

but it was obvious.

The thing that gets me, the thing that I still don't understand,

is why did he leave me?

-Like, what was wrong with me, you know? -Cody!

Nothing is wrong with you!

The first time I ever rode a bull, I felt it...

underneath all that thrashing and bucking, all that rage.

It's the same thing inside of me that I deal with every day.

And now, he wants to have some big family dinner

for Christmas after finals? [scoffs]

So... he's back?

Yeah.

He apologized, and my mama just rolled out the red carpet.

Has he reached out to you?

I'm sorry, you know, we don't have to talk about this.

Don't be sorry. Don't be sorry.

All that anger has made me who I am.

It's fine.

Okay. It's time.

[Cody] Time?

[Ali] Time for your encore! Come on, bring out that inner 10-year-old.

-Come on. -[laughs] Oh, no!

-[groans] Okay, okay! -Yes, bring out your

inner 10-year-old self.

[Cody] I told you that in confidence.

Come on, dance with me!

-Uuhhh, okay. -[Ali giggles]

[Ali gasps] Whoo!

-Wow! -You like that?

-Cody Gunner, so many hidden talents! -You like these moves?

[Ali giggles]

-[phone buzzing] -Ali, you have to be kiddin' me?

-I'm sorry, you know, rules are rules. -Uh-uh-uh.

Forever?

Yeah, unfortunately so.

-It has to be a joke? -[Ali giggles]

Well, goodnight, Ali.

-[gently smooching] -[Ali] Goodnight.

You got it?

-I think I can manage. -Alright. Don't trip on your way in.

[door thuds shut]

[gentle instrumental music]

[crowd cheers]

[upbeat rock music]

[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to the final night here in Vegas

for the National Finals Rodeo.

[crowd roars]

Among the biggest contest we'll see tonight

is the one between barrel racers.

That's right, and what a series of races we've seen.

-[upbeat rock music continues] -[crowd cheers]

[announcer] And of course, at the other end of the arena,

the bull riders are about to bring their best rides.

[upbeat rock music continues]

Whoo!

Vegas, baby!

Cody Gunner tops the list with nine points

over Trey Cummins.

[announcer] Drew couple pieces of advice here.

Never fill your canteen downstream from the cattle,

and never get on a bull named Tornado Tim!

And wouldn't you know it?

Cody drew Tornado Tim tonight,

-so if he holds on- -There he is!

-Ooh, good! -Cody!

[announcer] Buckle just might be his!

[Carl Joseph] Go, brother!

[upbeat rock music]

Hey, you haven't done a full session.

Oh, yeah, I feel fine.

I'll finish the session after we ride, okay?

-[Sarah] Are you sure? -Yeah.

Yeah, really, I feel fine. I'm good.

Okay.

[Ali sighs]

[crowd cheers and applauds]

I got Temptest today.

[Cody] It's the best bull here. Better than mine.

[Dalton] Debatable.

But I know, ooh, it's about time!

Better get 90.

Sure, yeah, 90.

[Dalton exhales loudly]

[crowd cheers and applauds]

[Lydia giggles] So how ya feelin'?

Good. You know, the ground around the third barrel

looks a little deep, but, you know...

[sighs] Good luck.

Not that you'll need it.

-Thanks. -[laughs] Yeah.

You're not comin' out tonight, right?

No, not tonight.

Sucks, man, just sayin'.

-[Dalton grunts] -Maybe tomorrow.

-[bull snorts] -[chuckles] Yeah, right.

[crowd cheers and applauds]

It's time, folks!

Next up are your barrel racers!

The buckle will almost certainly go to

one of our top two racers heading into this event.

[announcer 2] Give it up for the queen herself...

-Alright, Ace. -[announcer 2] Ali Daniels!

-[crowd roars] -Alright, Ace.

[Cody] Come on!

[crowd cheers and applauds]

[announcer] And that's an NFR record time

around that first barrel.

-She's doing good. -She's fine.

[crowd cheers and applauds]

[announcer 2] Hold on to your hats, folks, because you are witnessing history.

[dramatic instrumental music]

[announcer 1] She's at 9:57 headed into that third barrel.

She is unstoppable!

[crowd roars]

-[barrel clatters] -Oh, my!

[crowd clamors]

[announcer 2] That is an unfortunate five second penalty.

[dramatic instrumental music]

[Ali coughing]

[announcer 1] What a terrible break for Ali Daniels, folks.

That'll cost her points.

[Ali coughing]

[Ali continues coughing]

-[Cody] Hey, hey! -[Ali continues coughing]

-You okay? -[Ali continues coughing]

Medic! Come on. Hey, hey.

-[Ali continues coughing] -Somebody get help!

[Ali continues coughing]

-No! Don't! -We need to call an ambulance.

[mumbles indistinctly]

-[coughs] It was my fault. -You did your best.

[Ali coughing]

It's okay.

-[hyperventilating] It's over, we lost. -Hey, it's okay.

-You're okay. -[Ali coughing]

[Ali continues coughing]

Okay. [patting back]

She does about 15 minute intervals three times a day.

Maybe some oxygen?

[Ali coughing]

[sighs] I just...

[stammers] I got sloppy.

-I- -It happens.

[sighs] Not at finals.

Well, you're gonna come back, train harder,

and you do even better next year.

You're a champion, Ali.

I just... I don't have the buckle to prove it like you do.

I'm sorry, I'm ruining your win!

You should be out celebrating with Dalton.

No. I don't care about that.

Really, it's fine.

It matters!

This win was huge for you.

Really, you killed it.

Thank you.

But that's not the point.

Look, I'm worried about you.

Don't be. I'm okay.

[sighs] I'll be glad to go home for the break,

and have some rest, and home cooked meals.

[Cody chuckles]

Hey, you never said where you're spending Christmas?

Um...

I don't know, but, you know, I'll figure it out.

My parents will be back soon,

-so I should head- -Where are they?

They are at Walgreens,

just, you know, getting water for the trailer,

cough syrup, Skittles, all the remedies.

[Cody laughs]

Hey, aren't you supposed to ask me?

Ask you what?

If I'm chasing you?

I don't know that it matters anymore.

Why?

'Cause...

You've already caught me, Cody Gunner.

[soft mellow music]

[soft mellow music continues]

I was half expecting the phone alarm to go off.

-[Ali laughs] -Beep, beep, beep, beep!

-Don't make me laugh. -Hey, I'm sorry.

-[Ali coughs] -I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Ali, every time I ever thought about kissin' you

-the dang phone went off- -Come with us.

Come with us for the holidays.

I talked to my parents, and they think it's okay.

-Yes. -Yeah, there's this

guest house on the ranch,

and I thought it would be nice for us to spend time together,

-and some time- -Ali.

I'm in, yes.

-I'd love to. -Really?

[Cody] When do we leave?

Tomorrow morning.

All right.

Guess I got some packing to do.

[Ali giggles]

[vehicle engines roaring]

-[truck engine roaring] -[upbeat mellow music]

[upbeat mellow music continues]

-[gravel crunching] -[gearshift clanks]

[truck engine turns off]

[truck doors thud shut]

Cody? It's nice to finally meet you face to face.

This is it.

It's incredible.

Y'all have a beautiful home.

It's nice to meet you, too.

Thank you. We're glad to have you here.

Let me show you around.

[uptempo mellow music]

[uptempo mellow music continues]

[dirt clattering]

Hard worker.

[Cody] Oh, yeah, thank you, Sir.

Call me Daryl.

I appreciate you helpin' out during the break,

although, I think you probably had a different motive.

Yes, sir.

Daryl.

Your dad must be proud?

Yeah, I'm not sure.

We don't talk.

Sorry, I didn't know.

[Cody] He left a long time ago.

Why don't you take a break, Cody? You've been workin' out here all day.

I will in a minute.

-Thank you. -All right.

Well, I'm gonna get to it. Stalls don't clean themselves.

-Lots to do. -Yeah!

[dirt clattering]

[gentle instrumental music]

[machine whirring]

[machine continues whirring]

[door clatters open]

Hey, you!

Oh, hey! Are you hard at work out there?

Yeah. Your dad seems to approve.

Is that right?

Yeah, it must be all those hours of balin' hay for him.

Yeah, that must be it.

[hose clattering]

What's all this?

Oh, it's... You know, it's just your basic CF stuff, you know?

The vest compresses my lungs,

and just helps keep things moving, you know?

Oh.

So, you do this often?

Yes, Cody, it's totally normal.

-Okay. Hey, you want some water? -Yeah, thanks.

[crochet piece rustling]

[footsteps pattering]

[hoses clattering]

[Cody] Here you go.

Thank you!

[glasses clanking]

I'm really glad you're here.

Yeah, me, too.

Hey, my dad's birthday is this Friday, and we always make his favorite thing.

So I was wondering if maybe you'd wanna take a break from baling hay,

and come in and help me cook?

Yeah, put me to work.

Okay, cool.

You're gonna lay it like that, and you're gonna come underneath.

What is this called, tapestry?

[chuckles] It's lattice.

You're supposed to weave the dough, which you are clearly not doing.

-Lattice? -[Ali laughs]

-Yes. -That sounds Southern for a salad.

Lattice, can I get some lattice, please?

-[Ali laughs] -[cell phone rings]

-Not even close. -It's my mom.

-Oh, answer it! Yes! -To FaceTime now?

[phone clicks on]

[laughs] Oh, my god, Carl Joseph! Hey!

-Happy Friday, brother! -Oh, happy Friday.

-That's a killer hat. -I thought so, too.

They had it at Target.

And it getting clearance.

Mom said you're in Oklahoma.

Are you guys havin' fun? We miss you.

I am. Hey, y'all wanna meet someone?

Yes.

Come here. This is my girlfriend, Ali Daniels.

Hi!

[Mary] Hi!

It's so nice to meet you. We've seen you ride. You're so talented.

Oh, thank you so much. That's so sweet.

I'm Carl Joseph.

I ride bulls, too, in the living room.

Hi, Carl Joseph. It is lovely to meet you.

I've seen you on TV. You have that pretty horse.

Aw, thank you!

-Do you like my hat? -I do! I love your hat!

I actually left mine in the other room.

You're funny, Ali.

I like her, brother.

She's a princess.

-[Ali giggles] -Yeah, me, too.

Mike, do you wanna come meet Cody's girlfriend?

Oh, yeah. You know what? About that, we're right in the middle of it,

so we gotta go.

-No. -[Carl Joseph] See ya.

-Love you! Love you, too, Ali! -Oh, love you, too, Carl Joseph!

-[Mary] Bye, you guys. -Cody?

It's fine.

-Ahh, well, that's nice. -It was nice.

-You met Ali. -[Carl speaks indistinctly]

[Mary laughs] Yes.

-What was that? -You know,

she keeps pushin' this whole make up with your dad thing, and I'm over it.

Oh, so it's that bad, huh?

[Cody] Oh, Ali, you have no idea.

[oven door thuds shut]

-[bell dings] -[indistinct chattering]

-[Sarah laughing] -Alright!

-Yeehaw! -[Sarah laughs]

I know, I said... What?

-Oohh! -Oh!

Cody helped make the pie, in case it wasn't obvious.

-[Daryl laughs] -Yikes!

Guess I better stick to bull riding and bailin' hay.

[laughs] It's impressive.

Let me have some of that pie.

I mean, if everything came to us easy our whole lives,

we'd never know the worth of 'em, hmm?

[Sarah] And Daryl would know.

This man went to great lengths to get my attention.

-Mm-hmm. -As far as joining a cross-stitching class

just to spend time with me all because I wouldn't go on a date with him.

-[laughs] -And it was worth it. Right?

In the history of cross-stitch,

I don't think there's ever been a better cross-stitcher.

-[Ali giggles] -But this one.

-[all laughs] -Hey, hey, hey! I got really good at it.

And from all that, I learned, never give up hope.

Nothin' is given.

And try not to leave gaps in your stitches.

-[Cody laughs] -Oh, that's sweet, Daddy.

[Daryl chuckles]

-Alright, here we go. -Alright!

? Happy birthday ?

[Ali giggles]

? To you ?

[all laugh]

[Daryl] You know, it may not look like a masterpiece...

[engine whirring]

-[chicken clucking] -[light strings clattering]

[engine continues whirring in the background]

-[light strings continue clattering] -[chicken clucks]

[Ali] Hey! Daddy put you to work already?

Well, you know, the more lights, the better.

I love it.

Hey, my parents and I are gonna run into town for a little while.

-Do you need anything? -You don't need me to come?

No, I think we might do some shopping, so I will spare you.

-I knew I liked you. -[Ali giggles]

Well, I'll be here decking the halls.

-Alright. Have fun. -Thanks, you too.

[somber instrumental music]

[door clatters open]

-Hi, Dr. Cleary. -Hey.

[door clicks shut]

Your numbers are worse.

You need the transplant sooner, rather than later.

The good news is, you're a match, Daryl.

[whispers] Oh... Okay.

And Sarah?

Unfortunately, no.

We'll need to find another donor before we can go ahead with the surgery.

I suggest we put Ali on the list.

[Daryl] Yeah.

Yes, yes, absolutely.

Yeah, I guess, if we have to.

Sorry, the donor process, how long does that take?

Depends.

Is there a sense of urgency?

Not today, but it is imminent.

We all knew that she would get to this place someday.

[Daryl] And the treatments?

[Dr. Cleary] It could buy you some time.

[somber instrumental music]

I'll be in touch.

[somber instrumental music continues]

[Ali whimpers]

[Sarah] Thank you.

[car engine roars]

What did Cody say after you told him about the appointment?

I told him we were going shopping.

-Al? -I know.

I just... I...

I'm gonna tell him.

My girl, you're gonna get through this.

God's got a plan.

Yeah, you mean like how he had a plan for Anna?

Sorry, I'm...

-I'm just- -It's okay.

I understand.

Ali, you should tell him the truth. Cody has a right to know.

Yeah.

[Ali sighs loudly]

[insects chirping]

[Cody] Hey! Oh, no, hang on.

Okay, come here, come here.

Stand.

-[stammers] Okay. -Just hang on.

-[gentle instrumental music] -[Ali chuckles]

Ta-da!

-Cody, it's stunning! -Yeah?

Yeah!

It's amazing.

I assume Ace helped?

No, he's too lazy.

-[Ali laughs] -He is a good listener, though.

Yes, well, that I know.

So you wanna know what I was tellin' him before you got here?

Do tell.

Well, I told him...

that I love you.

Now, I know Carl Joseph beat me to it.

-Cody... -I chased you,

and I caught you,

and I love you.

I love you with all that I am, Ali.

[gentle instrumental music]

I like being caught by you.

How was shopping?

[chuckles lightly] I like this better.

Um... But I'm gonna... I'm gonna help my mom with dinner.

I'll see you in a bit, okay?

Okay.

Son, there's somethin' meaner than a bull.

Somethin' even the best riders can't tame.

Any guess?

Life.

Some bulls are just too wild to tame, Cody.

They huff, and they grunt, and they stomp,

but when they come your way, don't be afraid.

You're fearless. I see it in you.

How do you know?

'Cause you hopped on a bull without askin'.

[chuckles lightly] Three times.

You got fight in you.

You think you could show me how to stay in for eight?

Like they do in the rodeo?

I'd like that.

-Great. [chuckles nervously] -And Cody, hang in there.

Just like the Bible says, "Be strong and courageous."

-Strong and courageous? -Yeah.

-Yes, sir. -Go on.

[gentle instrumental music]

"Be strong and courageous,

do not be afraid, do not be discouraged

for the Lord, your God, will be with you wherever you go."

"Be strong and courageous,

do not be afraid,

for the Lord, your God, will go with you wherever you go."
