Sam.

Hey, Sam.

Earth to Samantha.

Sorry.

I must of zoned out.

Hey, Sam.

Wasn't your mom supposed to be here by now?

Oh, yeah.

Hi, can I get this too?

Oh, absolutely. Let's just
throw it in there, here you go.

Thank you.

Here's your dad's card. Thank you so much.

Thank you. Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Scooter!

Dad?

I thought Mom was going to pick me up.

Yeah, I was in the neighborhood,
so I waved her off.

You mind?

Not at all.

What are you and your posse up to?

Checking out clothes for school.

That sounds expensive.

Bed on it.

Junior year in high school, huh?

Wow.

I know. Getting all pretty excited though.

Not bad.

Listen, you know, it's my closing tomorrow.

I want to do something a little different.

Instead of Taco Tuesday.
How about we make it teriyaki?

Sounds yummy.

As long as they have
chicken fried rice for Austin.

Sounds good.

Cool.

Looks good?

Austin, we have your favorite.

How many we got in there?
They only gave us two.

Here, is this good?

Let me see.

Okay, like a pencil.

Write like this, like a pencil.

Take one hand, you write like that, right?

Yeah.

And you stick the other one right in here.

Sorry, not a lot, not really hungry.

I'm not really hungry, Sherry.

I got too much on my mind.

Well, no business talk at the table.

Dinner.

Here we go.

So how was school?

I need some of that orange chicken.

Yes, I'll give you some.

Good?

Yep.

What'd you do today?

There you go.

Nothing.

Kind of messy.

Math, unfortunately.

Math?

Mm-hmm.

My worst subject.

Mine too.

What do you mean?

Math is the best.

Thank you, thank you.

How am I related to you both?

Take after me, I guess.

You take the looks from your mother

and the smarts from me.

I'm bad at math.

So you better not...

Oh, no, no, no.

Not true.

How's it going?

Uh, it's that start-ups are never easy.

But somebody's got to
pay for all those new clothes.

You bet.

Hi, Dennis.

Hey, Sam.

You look all grown up.

When was the last time I saw you?

About two days ago.

At my ballgame.

Oh, well, urr, you look kind of
small out there in the outfield.

Hey, Daddy.

'Night, baby.

Good night, Mr. Stevens.

Good night.

Get that. Right There.

How is it going?

Oh, you know, it's a big step.

Equal parts excitement and terror.

Well, we are closing the contract

with Zuni Capital in the morning.

It's only for 90 days.

This mortgage assignment.

We'll be positive cash flow after then.

When Zuni sells the app,
we'll be rolling in dough.

You know what they say.

For richer or poorer, for better or worse?

I'll take richer.

You're a good man, partner.

I know. Try get some sleep

before the closing tomorrow.

I just might go with you.

That'd be great.

Huh.

I hope you do.

I will then.

See you tomorrow.

Uh, good night, honey.

Good night.

Are you kidding me?

It be nice if you come too.

Well, I mean, you need her advice.

No. I've got enough...

Oh! Come on now.

Morning, Scooter.

Morning, Dad. Off to work?

Yep.

Need to ride somewhere?

Not yet. I'm not
meeting the girls till later.

Not more shopping?

Of course more shopping.

Ugh.

(Laughing) (Laughing)
(Laughing) (Laughing)

I'll see you later. Catch.

Love you.

You have everything?

Yeah. Hopefully.

Hopefully?

Where's Mom?

She's with Dad.

They'll be closing.

I guess that means you're
making breakfast for me then?

Yeah, right. It's about time you

make your own breakfast.

What? You know all I make is cereal.

How about it? You're on your own.

Watch out near Plano, though.

There's a rollover accident and it's

backing up traffic all the way to McKinney.

It's also a good idea...

Especially at the off-ramps,
you're 21st to 85.

Hello?

Is this Susan Collins?

Yes. This is her.

This is Officer Harley Abrams
of the Texas Highway Patrol.

Are you the
sister of Sheri Collins Nichols?

Yes. Yes, I am.

I wanted to call you first as next of kin.

I'm so sorry to bring you this news.

Hello?

Hi, Samantha. It's your aunt Susan.

Hi aunt Susan. How are you?

Not well, honey. Um...

This isn't a happy call.

Listen,
Betty. I'm really sorry for your loss.

Thank you. Thank you.

We're sure going to miss Parker and Sherry.

Their absence is...

Well, it's... it's devastating.

Listen, uh...

Here's my card.

If ever you need anything, anything at all,

please don't hesitate
to call me or email me.

Hear now?

Thank you, Dennis.

You're a very kind man.

You're welcome.

I guess I'd best be going now.

Take care, Austin.

Sam.

Bye.

Good night.

I miss them too.

I miss you too.

Well, I guess Dennis was right.

The business is leveraged to the hilt.

What does that mean?

It means that your parents

used all of their money and assets

to start up a new business.

But they didn't have time to get it going.

So that means there's no money left?

Sweetie, I... I can see what they were

doing and... and how it did make sense.

But after the accident, everything changed.

And now there is nothing left.

Maybe the bank can help.

No. No, the bank won't help,
Samantha. I mean, they can't.

There is no collateral.

But the house...

Yeah, well,
it was mortgage for the start up.

And now there's a lean
on against it from the bank.

Yeah, all the cash is gone.

Look,
even the life insurance was cashed up.

Well,

Sweetheart, I'm sorry.

It's gone.

All of it.

The house, the business, the money.

But I want you to understand this.

It's important for you to know this.

Your parents were very smart.

They knew how to work all of this.

And if they were alive,
everything would be okay.

Well, what are we going to do?

Well, I was talking with Dennis.

And he thinks you and
Austin should move in with me.

So you're going to get a house in Plano?

No.

No.

You would move in with me

at the horse farm.

Oklahoma? You want us to go to Oklahoma?

I can't go. There's nothing

there. I don't know anybody there.

There has to be another option.

I just started junior. I can

get a job. I can get an apartment.

We can figure it out. I just started

junior here and I just
started the Spirit Squad.

I can't go.

No, I am so proud of you for that.

I really am. And you can try out

for the Spirit Squad in Tahlequah.

Your aunt Susan has agreed to bring you

and Austin up to Oklahoma

next week.

She's even thinking of giving
Oklahoma a shot for her.

She can go.

I want to go back to Texas.

Honey, it's going to be fine.

Yeah. We're going to
make like a billion here.

There's nothing here.

Hello?

Excuse me. Hi.

Hi.

Hi. Hi. We're looking
for Betty Sawyer's farm.

Okay. Thank you.

Bye.

Right friendly folk around these parts.

I like him.

Sure you do. If you like everybody.

Why is that bad? Sam the Spam!

Huh? Why, not everybody's
like you all stuck up and snooty.

I am not! Shut up you little brat!

Stop.

Yes, ma'am.

I'm ready to go home.

This is going to be home.

Woa!

She's something, ain't she?

Uh, yes.

It's amazing how much
control she has over that horse.

Well, I was talking about the horse.

I guess my wife ain't bad either.

Oh.

I'm Fred Jones.

And that pretty little lady on the

horse right there's my wife, Diana.

You must be the Nichols family?

Yes. I'm Susan, this is Austin, Samantha.

Welcome to Sawyer's.

Do you work for my grandma?

No, sir, I do not.

Your great-great-grandpa got
himself a hundred-year lease

on this end of Tahlequah
from the Cherokee Nation.

Diana and I, we sub-lease the
ranch house from your grandma.

We raise, train, and board horses,
mostly for rodeo folk.

And now Miss Betty gets a fair share,
and everybody's happy.

Sounds like a good arrangement.

We all think so.

We also grow feed over yonder

for the horses, the rest we sell.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

How y'all doing?

Honey, this here is Susan,
Austin, and Samantha.

Hi, you guys.

Hi.

Hello.

You must be Sam.

Come run with me sometime.

Come on.

So if you'll just follow
this crop of trees here,

you'll get to where you need to go.

You've been here before?

Yes,
a while back when the kids were little.

So I think we can find it from here.

All right.

Y'all let me know if you need anything.

Thanks. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye!

Looking good, baby.

Oh no, honey, that one's really heavy.

I'll watch it.

Thanks.

Got it?

Yeah.

There she is!

Grandma!

Oh, come here, darling.

Ooh!

How you doing, kiddo?

It hurts.

Oh, yeah, of course it does, sweetheart.

Hurts me too.

Now, your daddy grew up around here.

I see him and everything I touch.

Mmm, honey, you can't get around the hurt,

but that don't mean it
has to weigh you down.

You don't understand. I just...

Grandma!

Oh, oh, oh!

Oh, Lord!

You are getting too big
for that kind of nonsense.

How tall are you now, anyway?

Six-six?

I don't know.

Oh, Sue.

Thank you Grandma.

Yeah.

Thank you for everything.

Sure!

All right, are y'all about done?

Mm-hmm.

I've got some sun-tea brewing.

Come on in.

Yeah, come on!

So good to have you here.

Oh, I don't know.

It's heaven out here.

Yeah, it'll be fall before you know it.

Even prettier when the
leaves start changing.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, I called the bank manager this morning.

Thank you for putting in a good word.

I have an interview in a couple of days.

Oh, no problemo.

Ugh! I can't find anything!

Well, looks like you found something.

Sam?

All my clothes, they're Dallas clothes,
not Tahlequah.

There's a difference?

Ugh! There's a difference?

To a young girl, uh, yeah.

She wants to go into town
tomorrow and look around,

and everything's got to be just

perfect for an ordeal like that,

you know, in case she
runs into some local girls or...

Whew.

That bad, huh?

Oh, yeah.

Morning, sweetie. It's time to get up.

Grandma's got some chores
for you to do before breakfast.

Okay. For that, you can feed the chickens.

We have chickens?

We have chickens!

Yes, we have chickens.

Girl?

So cute.

Mmm.

Like this?

Yeah?

Yeah.

Well, look at these saddles. They're cool.

They're pretty cool.

Mm-hmm, yeah.

Oh, look at this one.

Yeah.

We don't have a horse.

So who cares,
like our grandma could buy something.

Well, maybe,
I don't think this would fit a horse.

It fits you perfectly,
but maybe like a pony?

No.

Well, look at this belt thing.
This is like for clapping.

I'm not sure.

These ones are nice.

Who are you?

I'm Samantha Nichols. Sam.

You're new.

Good. Now spell cat.

Wise butt.

And you're?

Not interested.

I think that went well.

She seemed nice.

Sam.

What?

I said she seemed nice.

Austin, you don't get it.

Yes, I do.

Y'all are new.

Yes! sir.

Must be Bette Sawyer's kin.

I'm Sam, my brother Austin.

Are we in trouble?

You a bank robber?

No, sir.

You a horse thief?

Cattle rustler?

You're a guard shark.

General miscreant.

I don't even know what that is.

Well, then I guess y'all can stay.

Why don't you two run across the

street and get yourselves a cone.

Thank you,
but we don't have any money, Mr...?

Bobby Stout.

I am the duly elected chief of

police here in Tahlequah City.

This her is, Raul Martinez, my deputy.

Y'all have any problems

find old Raul there.

That's right.

Hey, why don't you go across the street

and go ahead and get you some ice cream.

Tell Christina I said it's okay.

Really?

That's right. Come on.

Come on now. Get!

Go get some ice cream.

That little one's gonna be trouble.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, Martinez, how many

businesses you and your wife have now?

Come on, boss.

Don't go busting my chops about that.

You know, you're lucky.

There ain't much crime in Cherokee County.

I'd hate for you to be pulled
away from your deputy duties.

To have to rush off to
one of your side gigs.

Boss, it's department first every day!

You know this.

Except for nights, weekends,
holidays, all of your nieces,

quince, and heirs, and seasonal work.

Absolutely. I got it.

It's hot out here,
but I love the ice cream.

Same here. It's very hot.

Who's that guy?

I don't know.

Hi!

I remember you. Remember?

What are you staring at?

What are you staring at?

I don't see anything.

What are you staring at?

What are you staring at?

What are you staring at?

Hi!

Hi.

Your grandma said it
would be cool if I came over.

We got chickens.

And a goat.

Wanna see?

I can't stay long, but heck, sure.

Oh, oh come.

Over here.

She's pretty, isn't she?

Very.

Uhh. What are those drums for?

Oh, they're for racing.

I'm training her.

For a girl who want's to ride in town.

Doesn't look too hard.

Yeah, you ever tried it at full gallop?

Huh?

You can sit on the top there.

It's a cowboy's favorite
perch other than a bar stool.

Thanks, but I'm not a cowboy.

Uh-huh, not yet you're not.

Well, how was your day?

Did you meet any young people?

Don't ask.

Oh.

Nobody likes a new kid.

It disrupts the natural order of things.

I don't know what the big deal is.

JJ and me had a great time today.

Well,
that's because you're not a teenage girl.

Amen to that.

We met the police chief and his deputy too.

They gave us ice cream.

Ah, yep, that's Bobby's trademark.

I watched him go from
a hell raiser in school

to a pretty good old boy.

They were really nice.

I do think Aunt Susan is
interested in the police chief though.

We saw him flirting at threads, huh?

Mm-hmm.

Oh!

He's pretty cool.

So you think Aunt Sue's gonna
work every night until nine?

Well, probably for now.

Until she gets some seniority in the store.

know she was really happy to get the job.

Mm-hmm.

Umm...

Whenever I start school,

will I still be able to play with Benny?

Hmm.

Who's Benny?

My goat.

Oh, he's your goat now?

Well...

Yeah, he's your goat now, kiddo.

How about you, Sam?

I don't really like goats.

Anything around here tickle your fancy?

No.

It's just, it's not my thing, I guess.

Hmm.

Don't know till you try.

Why don't you give it a chance?

Doing what?

I talked to Diana.

Go work for Fred and
her till school starts.

If it doesn't fit,
we'll never mention it again.

Well, the pay's not much good,

but you can buy a few things.

Me too?

You have a goat to take care of, young man.

I don't think I, I can.

It's a month.

How hard can it be?

Fine, but if I hate it,

I don't wanna talk about it ever again.

Good enough.

Oh, there.

Nice.

Samantha Nichols reporting for duty, sir.

You're late.

I got carried away
walking through the woods.

Uh-huh. Well, be able to deal, Missy.

Take that.

We got the perfect job for you.

Thought you might need these.

What for?

Well, it's, it's called mucking.

What do I do?

Muck.

You muck, honey.

Oh no!

Oh, oh.

Oh yes.

Ugh!

Oh, oh that's bad.

Yeah.

Yeah, you really should
be more careful next time.

I'm guessing that's never
happened in Plano before.

Nope.

Keep going.

One month!

Oh, oh, oh.

Oh, what?

Oh.

That's it!

Pick it up!

Oh, I'm gonna help her.

You're mean.

Okay?

You got it, rookie.

Good job.

Mm-hmm.

Oh no you don't, Missy, not like that.

Now how am I supposed to go inside?

Umm?

Honey, Austin's inside

and there are no other men in site.

Strip.

I don't want to.

Honey, you smell awful.

You have to.

I think I smell great.

Oh, trust me.

Feel better?

I'll just spend the night in here, thanks.

Dinner's in 30 minutes.

Go on without me!

Half an hour.

Tomorrow we'll go buy
you some real work clothes.

Should I try them on?

I think I should.

I think pull this off?

Oh definitely.

How about this?

Too short.

That's too short for me too.

It ain't my two new favorite citizens.

Oh, hi chief.

How y'all doing?

Good. Good.

Settling in all right.

Mm-hmm, yeah I think so.

What do you think of our little town?

Very cute.

Very cute.

It is.

And friendly too, so it's very nice here.

There's a lot of smiles in this town.

It's nice to have a couple of new ones.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Just wanna say hi.

Good to see you.

See y'all later.

Good to see you.

He seems nice.

I think you look cute in
the new outfit you got today.

Thanks.

I like it,
it's a little different than Texas clothes,

but I glad we went shopping.

You'll get used to it.

Aunt Susan, stop!

What?

Why?

I wanna stretch my legs.

If you see Diana,
tell her I didn't forget her deal, okay?

Okay.

Okay, I'll see you back at the house.

Bye.

What's your deal, boy?

Are you one of the wild
mustangs I've been hearing about?

You don't act wild.

Not at all.

Is that funny to you?

Kinda is.

Is he yours?

No, he's wild.

Doesn't seem very wild to me.

With you?

No, he's not.

His heart burns with fire.

He senses your journey.

Um, what journey?

Everybody must make a journey to find...

Um, okay.

I'm Samantha Nichols.

You asked for directions
from me a few weeks ago.

I'm Udeli Soquili.

What do you do?

Nothing an outsider would understand.

I'm a spiritual leader.

Cool.

Yeah, it is.

Huh.

Well, it was nice talking to you.

You too, Samantha.

When you're ready, find me.

Ready for what?

When you're ready.

Well, that wasn't too weird.

Looking good.

Thanks.

Get in.

What?

Go on, get in.

It's an old cowboy trick.

Get them wet and let them dry to your body.

Uh, they're gonna shrink.

Yeah, to your body.

Get them wet and they'll fit perfect.

This weather, be dry in half an hour.

But my boots.

Cow's been getting wet
for thousands of years.

Don't bother them none.

Go on.

How's it feel?

Cold.

City girl.

Um, so,
you know there are gray horse in the hills?

Heard of him.

Never saw him.

Some say he doesn't exist.

Others say he's... sacred horse.

Uh, some Indian guy I met up there

Said a horse may be my
spirit guide or something.

Which Indian?

U... U...

Udeli?

Yah!

I'd listen to what he says.

They say he knows things that others forgot

hundreds of years ago.

What kind of things?

Things!

Now come on and get out of there.

Get ready to go to work.

And trust me,
the last person you wanna make mad

is my wife, Diana.

Chop, chop, I ain't got all day.

Good to see you again, old friend.

So, how's life in the big city?

You mean Dallas... or LA?

I mean, where you are now.

Not all those other years.

You guys gonna talk or you gonna fish?

Oh, I haven't seen you guys in a long time.

Let's do both.

You can have the pond.

I'm fishing for information.

Oh, don't bust a gut.

Life has been very good for me.

No complaints.

How about you?

I'm at peace.

It's my nature.

I don't know if you noticed,
but he's always at peace.

Because he's always asleep.

Yeah, it's hard to get you worked up.

I think the only time I've
ever seen you animated

is when you're talking
about that mysterious horse.

Ah, the ghost horse.

He's my namesake, you know.

Really?

Udeli Soquili.

That means Spirit Horse.

Mm-hmm.

So tell me,
is it a real horse or a spirit from beyond?

I don't know.

I don't know if we'll ever know.

Well, there's one thing I know.

What's that?

We ain't fishing yet.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

I'm ready.

Going for it?

Sure.

Alrighty.

Remember what happened
last time we came here?

I remember that.

I fell in.

Here, look, look.

Have a little bit of extra here.

Oh, why are you so happy all of a sudden?

I'm not.

Yes, you are.

I'll bet that you met a boy

when he went into town with Aunt Sue.

Did not!

Sam has a boyfriend.

Sam has a boyfriend.

That is enough now, Austin.

We are polite at the dinner table.

Polite at all times.

He does have a good point though.

You seem to be happier.

Is it a crime to be happy?

No, not at all, dear.

We are just glad to see that you are happy.

You know, I've been thinking.

If brat here... has Benny,

so can I have a pet too?

Well, of course, Sam, anything.

As long as it is not a horse.

A horse?

Oh, honey.

Horses are very expensive.

I don't... I...

I'm, I'm sorry.

It is just not possible right now.

Something else. Yeah?

How about a cute little goat like Austin's?

Nevermind.

So, Diana said that you
saw the wild stallion again?

What stallion?

The one Diana thinks doesn't exist?

Huh?

It's a legend.

The Cherokee Ghost Horse.

The natives say that it's like a messenger

that helps loved ones.

I don't know the rest of the story.

I think I'm done.

May I be excused?

You hardly ate anything, sweetie.

I'm not very hungry.

Oh.

Well, okay.

You can go on.

But you come back if,
if your appetite comes back.

Just gotta get enough rope

to get it over the calf's head.

All right.

Cool.

Can I try?

Sure.

Okay.

Hold it down here.

Okay.

Ah, that's cute, huh?

That must be kind of heavy.

What is?

Whatever it is you're carrying around.

Sam, I just,
I can't seem to reach her anymore.

Well, I'm working her as hard as I can.

Take her mind off things a little bit.

Yeah.

Maybe you should come and work for me too.

I could always use extra hands.

I wouldn't make it.

Saw you ladies out here.

Look at that, thank you.

Thank you.

What are we talking about?

Hmm.

Sam.

Hmm.

Well, something will come up.

Yep.

Oh, I mean, he's happy.

One at a time.

Not bad for a city boy, let's try it again.

Okay.

Yeah, saying she's gotta get him out.

She's gonna.

Is that?

No.

That is the horse that doesn't exist.

She's amazing.

No, he is amazing.

She, guys, she's gonna get hurt.

She's a momma horse.

Looking good.

I reckon she's exactly where she belongs.

Come on in there.

Look at her!

I guess we were wrong.

Come right here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, baby.

Good boy.

Good boy.

Hey.

Yo, look at you ride, girl.

Hi there.

Fits like a glove.

Hi there.

Hey.

Where were you?

You like it up there?

Gave me a heart attack.

Aren't you something else.

See, she's gonna be just fine.

Where did you learn how to ride like that?

I don't know.

It was like I've been riding forever.

As soon as I got on his back,

I just knew which way he was gonna go

and I kinda went with it.

Oh, well, I'm sorry I missed it.

Your aunt Sue said she just
about fainted when you rode up.

When can I see it?

I'll see you tomorrow.

Yes!

Looks like I graduated
from Mucky Knott's stables.

Oh, to what?

Diana says that the junior
rodeo starts next month

before school and she'd
like to see me enter.

She says I still have
time to learn barrel racing.

Awesome.

I don't know.

We'll see what we see.

Udeli says you're wild.

That you have a fire burning within you.

I think I'm gonna call you Wildfire.

Ready?

Good, come on, and again, and again.

Get down to it.

Okay, Scooter, you gotta focus.

You gotta get down in the dirt after it.

I know it's hard,
but anything worth doing is.

Let anything stop your dreams, okay, baby?

Come on.

Oh, good.

Oh, buddy.

Come on.

Come on.

Mr. Samuelson, I'm Sam Nichols.

Oh, you call me Mordecai, everyone does.

Tim?

His name's Wildfire.

A Mustang.

Yup.

Sure don't look wild like a Mustang.

I guess not.

Well?

Well, he's a sight, that's for sure.

I don't see much wrong with his feet,

at least it is, I can tell.

A couple of nicks is all.

He's done a pretty good job

of staying off the rocks
and gravel and such.

That's good, right?

Yup.

Hey, Diana said you're going barrel racing.

I'm gonna try.

Well, he's never had any shoes.

I don't think he's ever gonna need them.

His hooves are hard and solid.

Oh, thank you, Mr. Sam...

Mordecai, how much do I owe you?

If it's okay, I can make small payments.

I think it's all paid for, hon.

Thank you so much, sir.

But you just let me know
when you're going to race him.

I'd kinda like to see this old boy run.

I will.

Well, I'll see you in a couple weeks.

For what?

I guess you haven't
heard about the bonfire.

Good, you don't need shoes, boy.

Good boy.

It's up to you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

For you.

Bye-bye.

I see you two are becoming friends.

He's really here, right?

People say he doesn't exist.

He exists to you, don't he?

Well, sure.

There's the answer.

What were you doing with that boy?

He's Mordecai's assistant, right?

The spiritual leader
has more responsibilities

than just brewing herbs and
blessing babies, you know?

Joseph's parents want him
to work in the family business,

selling farm equipment,

but he wants to go to Northeast State,

the university in town.

Oh.

His dilemma is to obey
his parents or his heart.

What did you tell him?

It's an honor for one of our people

to get offered a scholarship
at a good university.

He'll have to make up his own mind,

but I think he can do
more good for himself,

his parents,
and the tribe with an education.

What did he give you?

It's traditional to give a
spiritual leader tobacco

after you seek advice.

Do you smoke it?

No, I'm on a patch.

It's really pretty here.

Yes, I have cabin nearby.

I'd like to see it sometime.

Maybe.

Until now, I'll see you at the bonfire.

They said you might be there.

Certainly.

It's a celebration for my people as well.

You know, in time for a new moon,

the men will hunt for a week,

or we'll hit Walmart.

The women will make fry
bread and gather vegetables.

And if you're lucky,
I'll teach you stickball,

and we'll dance,

and we can listen to the gringo sing.

You call this that too?

I thought it was just the vaqueros.

Our ancestors used to
sneak down to the camps

and listen to the cowboys sing.

Sometimes they'll sing
Green Grow the Rushes,

so we call them gringos.

Really?

No, it's Spanish for Greek,

but no one really gets cowboys.

So, you listen to people's
troubles and help them, right?

Depends.

Maybe sometime I'll listen to yours.

But as of right now,
my five o'clock is here.

Oh, well, see you.

Yes, and see you too.

And if you haven't heard anything else

that I've said today,

Joe Johnson, I am talking to you.

Morning, Joe.

Morning has broken, Joe.

No, what I really wanted to say is

we've got a whole lot more
that cleaves us all together

than what divides us.

And with his help,

I think we can do anything as a community.

Say amen.

Amen. Amen.

Amen.

All right, the girls choir have
got something worked up

and I think you're really gonna like this.

Before they come out,

I just wanna invite all
of you to the bonfire.

Reminds you that we do this every year

and everybody is welcome to come.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Joyce.

I hope y'all like this.

just about fell asleep myself.

Every Sunday.

Oh, we have, we have.

Thank you, Pastor.

Always a pleasure, thank you.

Thanks, cowboy.

Good to see you.

Beautiful sermon, thanks.

I want to introduce you to my family.

They're with me now.

Hi.

This is Susan, this is Austin, and

Sam.

Hi, Sam, how you doing?

Good.

Sure is nice of y'all to come by.

I'm Micah Tomlinson, y'all come by anytime.

We have a lot of things
going on here at the church.

Thank you.

We'd have been by sooner.

We've just been getting settled in.

Well, now you know the way,

so there's no excuse, right?

That's true, thank you.

Narrow and steep is the way

but you can get here, okay?

Bye.

I got something to confess,

and I don't know who to do it to.

It would be my honor
for you to confess to me,

but you'd be confessing to God.

I'm just kind of a go-between,

but I'm glad to be your go-between.

Now, you want to set up something,

come by the church,
just call anytime, come by.

That'd be great, thank you.

Hey, I hear that you play guitar and sing, right?

Well, we got a girl's choir.

Would you like to be a part of that?

That's also kind of you, Pastor, but

Hey, Joyce.

Hey, this is Sam.

She plays the guitar and sings,

and maybe want to join the girl's choir.

Don't you think that'd be great?

It'd just be peachy.

We got a rehearsal at 10 o'clock tomorrow.

Just come a little bit
early and we'll talk, okay?

Thank you.

Hey, Sam.

Just getting ready for
rehearsal here in a few minutes.

Do you still want to talk?

Yes, please.

Okay, come on inside.

Come on.

So, what I say is just between you and I, right?

Well, as long as it won't
hurt you or others, yeah.

I haven't told anyone this before, but...

I killed my parents.

Sam, I counseled your grandma

before you ever got to Tahlequah.

She was in incredible pain

over losing her son, Parker, like that.

But it was an automobile accident.

It was, but I had sent him a text,

and he was probably reading
it and didn't see the truck,

and it was all my fault.

No matter what you think,
it was not your fault.

I knew Parker for a long time.

He was a decent and an intelligent man.

And I'm sure that he was

No, it was my fault.

I killed him.

I killed my father.

And my mother, too.

Thank you, anyway, pastor.

So good.

I love it.

You're so good.

You were so awkward.

I'm not even joking.

Josh, it was gonna be so awkward.

What's your major malfunction, anyway?

You interrupted me the
whole time we were singing.

Nothing says I gotta like you.

Nothing says you gotta dislike me, either.

I don't like new girls,

but in where they don't belong.

First I hear you got some
dumb horses in a race,

and now the choir?

I don't even get a
trainer to myself anymore.

It's not fair.

Well, hi there.

You're training Janie for Joyce,
aren't you?

Well, I don't know.

I don't know why that matters.

It just ruins any chance I
have of making friends here.

Whoa, ho, ho, stay!

Come back here.

What are you talking about?

Here's something.

I didn't know if I should tell you this,
but you know.

Joyce has had a tough one.

How?

She lost her mom.

Her mom has killed riding horses,
you know that.

So that's why Joyce is the way she is?

Well, we're not gonna say
that's why I'm not waiting.

She is,
but might have something to do with it.

That didn't even cross her mind.

Something to think about.

Wanna help me put her away?

Sure

Why don't you lead her?

Wide as you can you go.

Take off her sack.

Turn her around.

Right in here.

That's a girl.

Come on pretty girl.

That's a girl.

I'll meet you on the other side.

Go again.

It is called muscle memory.

It is called getting it into your body.

It is called the amazing
thing that if you do it enough,

your body will do it without thinking.

The only thing that this is

about that you have to worry about

is going around the barrel,

whether you do it too fast or too slow.

That is it.

Can I get another second around the barrel?

Do it again!

You are the only thing that
tells your horse what and when

to do what it is meant to do.

Believe me, it will feel every

curve, it will feel every turn,

every nudge that you give it.

If you do it in your body,

so could we get it into our bodies, please?

Again, get a move on.

I said go!

Do it again.

Try it like this.

No, stop!

Pretty good.

You spelled God wrong.

Damn you, Udeli.

You give a person a heart attack

sneaking up on me like that.

Just checking up on my competition.

Okay, so what were you saying
was wrong with my sermon?

You spelled God wrong.

It's Unelanvhi.

What exactly does that mean?

God.

Two different spiritual leaders,
but the same.

So how you been, Micah?

Well,
pretty troubled about this Nichols girl.

Yeah, her parents' deaths
really wounded her heart.

Partner, you don't know the half of it.

So?

Yeah.

Well, Diana Jones been working

her real hard out at the ranch.

I hear you've been practicing
singing most evenings.

Well, keeping busy and
being free of your troubles

are two different things.

But I hear you've been conjuring a horse.

Came on his own.

Surprised me too.

Is he real?

He's real to her.

Perhaps he can do more
for her than both of us.

We'll see.

We'll see.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen,

and welcome to the 95th
annual Telefod Junior Rodeo.

Right.

Looks at those horses.

I know.

Now you stay close to me.

You don't want to get
underneath one of those.

Okay, this is something.

It is something.

Our first rodeo and we are excited.

Hey, all.

Oh, well, hello.

Hey, yeah.

How are you?

I'm doing pretty good.

All right.

I hear that niece of yours is right today.

Oh, she is.

I'm a little nervous.

I bet.

We're pretty excited about it.

We're very proud of her.

Hey, listen,
we're gonna be sitting over there.

Susan doesn't know that many people here.

You wanna come over and join us sometime?

Well,
I got a little bit of work to finish up,

but when I do, I'll come by and say hi.

Don't feel obligated.

All right.

That'd be nice.

Sounds good.

Y'all have a good time, right?

All right.

You be safe.

All right, bye.

Bye.

Come on, let's go.

Okay.

She'll be here, I promise.

She wouldn't miss it for anything.

Especially with your mom not...

Hey, see, look, here she comes.

Hey, Joyce, hey, Ginny.

Like I'm just in time.

Yeah, Ginny was actually just leaving.

Oh, yeah, okay.

Good luck.

That was kind of rude, Joyce.

Oh, she shouldn't have mentioned mom.

And why not?

She knew mom.

Well, you think you were the only one

that was affected by her death?

Maybe the only one who cared.

You weren't even around last year.

No, I wasn't.

But I worried about her every day.

And I worried about you.

I know I wasn't here, Joyce,

but that just made the worry

of not knowing that much worse.

Well, I was here.

I knew what was going on
and I didn't even try to help.

What could you have done?

I don't know.

I mean,
at least I could have tried to stop her

from going to the bar that night or...

Look, you can blame yourself.

That's not gonna stop an alcoholic.

Mom had her own demons to battle.

Don't make them yours.

So what do you expect me to do?

Put on a happy mask.

Oh, Joyce, the happy little orphan girl.

Yeah, you could do that.

Or you could go out there

and win this barrel race for mom.

Starting out the night,
we have one of my personal

favorite events, the junior barrel races.

We do love us some junior barrel races,
don't we?

That's right, we sure do.

And to get us started on the right foot,

we have our very own home town sweetheart,
Joyce Graham.

Sounds like your cue.

Good luck.

Thanks.

I made it just in time.

Oh man, what a shame.

What a shame indeed.

Boy, Joyce was set up
for a really good run there,

but she just came around
that second barrel too fast,

too close.

That's gonna cost you some points and, uh,

Her lead race.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, up next,

we have Miss Letitia Two
Feathers of the Bear Clan,

representing the Cherokee Nation.

Tough break, I'm sorry.

Yeah, great, win it for mom.

Thanks for giving me that added pressure.

That definitely cost her some time

and run those last two barrels.

But overall, that was a very clean run,

and it's gonna come down to
what the other competitors do next.

Your girl's up next, huh?

All right.

How'd it go?

Who, it wasn't that great.

Last up, we got a newcomer,
Samantha Nichols,

all the way from Plano, Texas.

That's right.

She is riding a Mustang named Wildfire.

Doesn't that sound exciting?

But it's gonna come down to
what she can show us tonight.

This could be hers to walk away with.

I can't wait to play
the Tigers on Saturday.

We're gonna whip their butts so bad.

You know, it's okay to win, Skirter,

but sometimes it's okay to lose, too.

But that doesn't make any sense.

Well, who asked me as good as a win

if it's done for the right reason?

You know, like,
you don't wanna embarrass the other team

because the thing won't hurt you,

or you get the opportunity to ally yourself

with someone with other skills.

You're just the bigger person.

Sportsmanship is always a victory.

I think I get it now.

She's off to a

great start there.

Oh, boy, Wildfire has a lot of
scary things happening in the game

and there they go around the next barrel.

That was a nice turn.

This is looking really, really good

for Samantha Nichols here.

Sportsmanship is always a victory.

Come on.

Wow, that is just a shame.

She was really really at home there.

I think this means it's gonna
go to Letitia Two Feathers

for the tournament tonight.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

Is it okay if I take this saddle?

Yeah, sure.

Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Good job tonight.

Seriously.

You know, I'm not some charity case.

I don't know what you were
trying to do out there, but...

I don't know, you're talking about...

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

You know,
it's not that important for me to win.

My dad taught me that it's sometimes better

to let others win.

And I might not be from here,
I might be different,

but I think we could be friends.

Seriously.

Well, I'll think about it.

Okay.

How long have you
been cleaning that saddle?

Way too long.

Hi.

Whoa, they're a little missy.

Aren't you forgetting something?

Yes, sorry, Grandma, I love you.

Oh, well, I love you too.

But what about your dad's guitar?

You want me to take it to the bonfire?

Absolutely.

Your dad played that guitar at,

I don't know how many Tahlequah bonfires.

It's yours now,
and I think you should perform.

I don't think I'd feel comfortable

singing in front of the whole town.

Well, now that's a shame.

A girl with your singing
voice and that guitar

might be a crime for you not to join in.

Come on, give it a shot.

For me, for your daddy.

What are we doing here?

Cleared it with Charlie yesterday.

That's why he gave me the key.

You know,
you probably don't know this, Scooter.

Almost didn't go to college
where I met your mom.

You mean when you went out to L.A.?

Yeah, you know about that, huh?

A little bit.

Mom told me you went out
to work on a record there.

After high school, I went to L.A.

to be a singer-songwriter.

And you've heard me, I was, I was just,

you've heard me, I was,
I was good, I was pretty good.

I tried my best, but nobody would sign me.

Anyway, I was always a whiz at science

and your grandpa in Tahlequah

talked me into going to
college for computer science

and I'm glad he did.

But do you regret giving up your music?

Absolutely not, sweetheart.

I have a great life.

But we're here today to talk about you.

Me?

Yes, you.

I've been watching and listening,

not just like a proud parent,

but like the toughest
music critic there ever was.

It's a little intimidating, but...

Yeah, but it's true.

You have a rare talent.

And all I'm saying is if you

wanted to take a shot at music,

or whatever you wanna do,

you just go for it, hmm?

Here.

You'll make good use of it,
better than I ever could.

Are you serious?

Serious as a heart attack.

You gonna see me something?

I don't know, it's a big deal, Dad.

I think I'd like to hear
you play me something

since we're in this place.

You heard Dennis and I play this one, hmm?

♪ They call him Wildfire ♪

I love this one.

You know, I think I will take it.

I think there's a song I'd like to perform.

Fantastic.

Welcome to the 45th
annual Tahlequah Bonfire.

We're very excited to have
everybody here tonight,

we've got a lot of special guests

and a lot of events planned.

Alright,
then we're gonna come up with a worry box.

So if you don't know what the worry box is,

you write down whatever's

bothering you on a piece of paper,

put it in the box,
it goes into the Phoenix,

well we burn it,
and that gives you a chance

to free yourself of
whatever's bothering you

and start over with the new year.

Do you have anything
else to say Captain Large?

Let's burn.

Can I get your for picture for the paper?

Yeah.

Hi.

Hey Sam.

Hi.

Okay, now the jam session usually happens

after the chair is moved.

Okay, but what I do, I invite myself?

Oh honey, you are already invited.

No one's judging here.

And I promise.

You should just do it, Sam.

You really need to though.

Girl, if you don't go up there and sing.

Sweetie?

The storm scare you?

Sam's not in her room.

What?

Honey,
I'm sure she's somewhere in the house.

The wind scared me and I went to see

if I could sleep with
her but she wasn't there.

I checked the bathroom too.

Okay, honey, it's gonna be okay.

You go back to bed.

I'm sure she went out to the barn

I'll go take a look and see if she's okay.

Can I come?

Okay, but hurry up, go get dressed.

We're doing everything we can.

It's just, it's coming down too hard.

Sorry, we're gonna find her, Susan.

All right, boys, let's take advantage

of this break in the weather.

I want you to go down and check the valley,

see if you see anything new.

I want you to double
back and see if there's

any fresh tracks at the flags.

Hey, boss,
how far up that mountain do you wanna go?

Probably just right along the ridge.

Think that's safe?

Safer than being here.

All right, boys, let's go.

Sam!

I have a gift for you.

Deputy, take her straight to an ambulance.

You're gonna be all right, Sam.

You're gonna be all right.

You did a good thing, Una Lai.

I'll take this fella back to the barn

and get him a nice snack.

No, his time here is done.

You're just gonna let him go?

It's not up to me.

Sam will be devastated.

She knows.

He came when he was needed.

I think she's okay.

Yes.

Donada ghovi.

That's right.

Till we see you again.

Let them do their job.

Come on, come on, Will.

We'll be in at the hospital.

Come on, please.

Be all right, Will.

Come on, ladies.

I'll drive you.

Come on, come on.

A 16-year-old female who fell off a cliff,

a dramatic injury to the
head with a large laceration.

Her C-sline is stable,

but she has not regained consciousness.

Okay, bottom of the ninth.

They're up by three yards to bat.

What do you do?

Choke.

No, you don't choke.

You will claw your way back up.

No matter how far down you are,
you always, always...

I'm sorry, baby, I'm sorry.

I have a lot going on.

You know what this means?

It means I love you.

You too.

I'll always love you more.

You'll never love me more, baby.

That was never gonna happen.

I will.

You know why?

Why?

♪ Cause I'll always love you more ♪

Come on, let's go.

Come on.

I know.

We were so worried about you.

We thought we'd lost you for good.

Wildfire saved me?

Yes.

And Udeli helped a lot too.

What day is it?

Well, you've been in here a day and a half,

but it's been three days since the storm.

I was unconscious and dad...

Grandma, there's actually been something

I wanted to tell you since,

since they died.

I tried to tell Udeli and Pastor Micah,

but nobody would listen but Wildfire.

Sam, what are you talking about, honey?

I'm responsible for the crash.

I was so excited to tell them about making

the Spirit Squad and I texted dad's phone

and he must have looked
at it and didn't see the truck

and wrecked and I didn't need to.

Oh, darling.

Have you been carrying
that around all this time?

Oh no, no, it was not your fault.

No, you listen to me young lady.

You did not have anything to do

with your parents accident, you understand?

Your father's app
automatically locked his phone

while he was driving.

And it was just one of the safety measures

that he designed.

There was no way that he
could send or receive a text.

Oh honey,
there was no way that you had anything

to do with that accident.

Oh honey, I'm so sorry that
you've been blaming yourself

this whole time.

Oh honey, oh sweetie.

Well look who's finally awake.

How are we doing young lady?

Imagine you have a nasty headache.

I do, I'm gonna survive though, right?

Absolutely, do me a favor right here

and look at my nose, don't move your head.

Look right, follow the light, look left,

and right here, fantastic.

Any other pain or issues?

I'm actually really hungry.

Hungry?

Hunger we can deal with,
appetite's a good sign.

If you're up for it, there's a

gentleman waiting in the hall

and he says he's driven
all the way from Dallas.

Mr. Dennis Stevens?

Oh Dennis, really?

No, no have him come in, of course, now.

All right, I'll have the nurse come in

in a few minutes to bring Samantha's dinner

and we'll have the IV removed.

Thank you.

All right,

Thank you doctor.

Hello Betty, Samantha,
is this a good time for visitors?

Yes, of course.

We certainly didn't expect any visitors

come all the way up from Texas.

Well actually I was planning to come visit

before I heard about the accident.

Sam, how you feeling?

Pretty sure,
I look a lot worse than I feel, so.

No, don't be bashful, you look fantastic.

So you were coming up to visit us anyway?

All the way up here to Tahlequah?

Well actually yes, I have something here

that felt too important
not to deliver in person.

Zuni Capital.

Isn't that the company you and

Parker were negotiating with?

That's right.

See, it was a touch and go for a few months

after Parker's accident,
but they finally came through.

Take a look inside.

That's Parker's check.

It's...

Got a lot of numbers.

Actually that's just a deposit.

There's a earn-out formula that pays to you

and the kids for 20 years.

What?

I don't know what to say.

Thank you.

Don't have to thank me.

It was all Parker's design.

He came up with the
vision of an all-inclusive app

and Zuni Capital just took it to market.

What does that mean?

On the memo line?

Oh yeah,
Zuni decided to name the program Wildfire.

He was on Parker's original list.

Is that okay with you two?

I mean, I guess I could call
him and probably change it.

No, don't change it.

I think it's just as it's meant to be.

The name is perfect to this.

We're just a little bit stunned right now.

Understandable.

Your daddy did good.

Thank you.

Your Welcome.

Did you dye hair?

Yeah.

Looks good.

Wait.

Sorry.

A little groggy still I guess.

Ladies, ladies, hospital policy

that we have an orderly
escort all patients upon release.

Taylor.

Oh, we can take her.

Honestly.

Or he's got it.

Escort these ladies out please.

Actually, gosh, she's a little heavy.

Heavy?

Don't to wanna break the hospital policy.

Is it hard being an orderly?

It has it's days.

Not bad.

Maybe we should be an orderly.

Oh boy.

There she is.

Oh baby girl.

Hi buddy.

Everyone's here to greet me but Wildfire.

Well.

Udeli said you wanted it this way.

We have something that might make you feel

better little girl.

And it's not mucking stalls.

Well you can still muck and stalls

but you might like this better.

Yeah, come on.

Just wait.

Come here you.

Hi Janie.

Hi girl Jane, good girl.

You noticing anything different?

Well, she's getting a little fat

just hanging on the barn.

That ain't fat honey.

No way.

Yeah way.

Look.

Look at her face.

What have you been up to girl?

We already talked to them,

and it's all good.

You can have the foal once it's born.

Looks like you're gonna
have part of Wildfire

for a long time.

Wildfire, you little devil.

Yeah.

Sweet girl.

Thank you Wildfire.
