Original subtitles

Previously on When Hope Calls. Nora.

Michael. I wanted to talk to you about something.

Johnny Green's at it again.

Stagecoach Robert?

My investor for the collection arrives today.

Are we getting robbed?

Take it.

In the ring?

Her bandit isn't talking.

Can only assume Johnny Green fell on the loose.

I've been wanting to read this.

I sold it. To who?

Me.

Oh.

Take it. No, take the book.

I got here as soon as I could. I'm afraid our meeting will have to wait

tomorrow. I've got an urgent matter to take care of. I can pick you up tomorrow

and bring you here.

I will see you then.

You're an amazing woman.

I'm really hoping to get that ring back.

From a friend?

Fiancé? It was my grandmother's wedding ring. I'll do everything I can to

retrieve it for you.

You accomplished on not talking?

Nope. But the age coach driver identified Johnny Green from his wanted

Not surprising.

He gone?

Along with Buck Caldwell, the male passenger.

What about the female?

I scheduled another interview with Justine this morning.

Wouldn't want to miss any details.

She can describe exactly what was taken from her. There's a ring.

How about a sentimental value?

I hope she's not too attached.

Green's M .O. is a sell -off. Stolen loot pretty quickly.

Anyway, let's reconvene after.

All right.

Good. You've come to lend a hand.

I'm headed out to pick up my investor. I want to get there early.

Don't let me stop you.

Can I help for a minute?

Morning. Morning, Debbie.

Oh, you're serving sandwiches now?

Thought I'd give it a try.

Well, I'll have to try some.

For now, we'll have four of the shortbread and let's see, three of the

butter and two of the chocolate.

Would you like a sample, Wally?

I'm not hungry.

Not hungry for cookies?

That's a first.

Today is the anniversary of Wally's first baseball game.

You went to a real baseball game?

My pa took me to the playoffs.

Got to see Babe Ruth hit a home run.

Wow.

Pa said when he would teach me how to hit a home run, too.

You know, Babe Ruth hit the most home runs ever this year.

He's my favorite player.

Mine, too.

You like baseball?

Oh, yeah.

You know, I can't believe you got to see the great Bambino play live.

There was a time when I hoped I'd be a pro.

I guess the Lord had other plans.

Reverend Daniel, it's nice to see you again.

How are you settling in?

Oh, so far, so good.

Found my favorite reading spot.

Oh, yes, I still owe you a book.

The Lone Moon was a good read.

Oh, I'm glad to hear it.

Actually, almost ready for some new reading material.

What are you doing this afternoon?

Well, as it stands, this afternoon I'm free.

Why don't you come by the orphanage for a welcome picnic? You can meet the rest

of the children.

Yes, please come.

I would love that.

See you then. Thank you.

Bye. Yeah.

Ah,

Dolores. Beautiful day, isn't it?

Notice anything?

Oh, it's the jacket.

Found it in Ronnie's closet. Do I look... bonery?

You kind of look like Ronnie.

I don't know how to take that. Thank you.

I guess.

Look

at

them. I bet they're all hat and no cattle.

We've heard from the other victims, but I'd also like to hear from you.

Steal the robber?

Um, yes, that's him.

Rather dastardly looking fellow.

Yeah, well, he certainly is not going to win any beauty contests.

Oh, and his jacket, it was a gray -brown canvas, but it was very stained with a

torn front pocket.

Well, I gotta say, that is the most detailed description of a criminal

have ever heard.

Well, I've been a lover of fashion my whole life.

Well, it shows.

Thank you, Constable Reynolds.

About my ring. I promise to do everything in my power to return it.

I really appreciate that.

I should get going.

I have Hannah Lawrence picking me up at 90. I'm sharp.

Thank you for breakfast.

Wait, I'll walk you out.

Let me get that for you.

I'm just saying that you should get a doctor or Maggie to look at that thing.

It's just a little birthmark. It's not little.

I could get my usual, Debbie.

Me too, please, Deb.

I hear you two are living together?

Oh, I lost a coin toss.

It's funny, though, you know, sharing a space with someone after living by

myself most of my life, it does have its advantages, yeah.

We were up last night gabbing like a couple of schoolboys.

It was a late night, yeah.

I should be way more tired, but I just... Sandwiches? What, you're not

lunch now?

Oh, that's exciting, Debbie.

Thank you, Joe.

So this is a restaurant?

I mean, why not? I have the tables and the face for it, right?

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie, Debbie. I say this as a friend and someone with

experience. You don't want to bite off more than you can chew.

Best to stick with what you're good at.

Like baking.

Delicious.

You got this, roomie?

I'm sure she's on her way.

Am I nervous that obvious?

Just a little.

I've handled my family's business investments in the past, but this is my

solo venture.

You want it to be perfect.

Exactly. I just need someone as committed as I am.

I can't afford for this not to go well. Does that sound difficult?

Find your dedication admirable.

I understand. I'm also driven by my work.

Which reminds me, I have a ring thief to catch.

Thank you, Constable Reynolds.

You can thank me when I bring your ring home to you.

How was breakfast?

Just being confirmed.

What was it on the green?

She confirmed what we already knew.

Glad it wasn't a complete waste of time.

There's nothing wrong with being thorough.

Meg, I need your help with Rumi. I mean, Ronnie.

I take it it's not going well. I have never met anyone who'd talk so much in

life. Last night, we covered his entire childhood.

And then when I thought we were done, he said it was only chapter one of the

Ronnie Stewart saga.

How many chapters are there, Maggie?

I'd be afraid to ask.

And then after the chatter came the snoring.

I don't think I've gotten more than one hour of sleep total.

I need your help.

I can provide you with some tinctures.

Or perhaps an energizing tea.

No, I mean, how do I tell him he's got to go?

Just tell Sam you want to twitch.

He'll understand.

Notice anything?

Dolores couldn't tell.

We noticed.

All right, yeah.

It's both a little too big and a little too small.

You're talking about the style, not the fit.

Maggie, what do you think?

How is life in the owner's suite?

Honestly, I had the greatest sleep of my life. After spending years sleeping

under the stars as a gold miner, I am really starting to enjoy the finer

in life, you know?

That's great.

Joe, is there anything you'd like to say?

Not that I can think of.

Not that I don't miss my roomie. It's a bit of a transition period for all of

us.

Well, you're welcome by any time. Oh, great.

But first, duty call.

You saw how happy he was.

You can't rain on his parade.

I'm so sorry I'm late. Is punctuality not a thing out here?

No, it's a thing out here as well. I just had to help out with something. But

now you have my complete and undivided attention, and my wagon is just outside.

Great.

With the children's propensity for getting bug bites, I'm learning it's

be prepared, especially at a picnic.

Ah, your mothering instinct is kicking right in.

Don't speak too soon.

I'm picking up sandwiches for lunch.

Did you know Debbie is selling sandwiches now? I heard they're amazing.

Oh, good for her. I decided it's better to let an expert make lunch than

accidentally poisoning the Reverend with my cooking.

Oh, the Reverend's coming.

I thought it would be nice for the children to meet him and have that kind

presence in their life.

Lovely. Is Michael coming too?

Uh, no.

I... Haven't spoken to him yet today.

Is everything okay?

Michael seems quite busy with work in the field lately.

I can't be the life of a Mountie.

Thank you.

Hey, Joe.

Michael.

Where's Deputy Rufus?

Sleeping on the job.

I'm actually here to pick up some treats for him and maybe a little beef jerky

for me.

I'll take these.

I heard Babe Ruth broke the home run record this year.

Well, I was just talking about that.

You play? Well, not as much as I'd like. I haven't played in years.

Did Town Mountie just meet the town minister?

Minister? Oh, nice to meet you.

Constable Michael Fletcher. Well, I gathered.

Reverend Joshua Daniels.

Nice to meet you, Constable.

I love a good game.

Well, seeing as Joshua's going to be a permanent fixture here in Brookfield,

maybe we should all play sometime.

We should.

I look forward to it.

Hey.

Excuse me. I just need to grab me some beef jerky.

Ben,

where'd you get that?

What, this?

Oh, I got this in Clearwater this morning.

Well, I have something.

Wow.

Can I take a look at it?

You know what's interesting?

I met a Buck Caldwell yesterday who reported a stolen watch just like this

a stagecoach robbery outside of town.

That's got nothing to do with me. I bought that off a street vendor. It was

It was a great deal.

I'd say it was a deal, actually.

Sorry, Ben, but I've got a complicated reverence.

Does this look familiar?

Or did you not know that Johnny Green swiped this watch from the stagecoach

yesterday?

Along with a bunch of diamonds.

He's selling everything and leaving you out in the cold.

You know, I'm almost impressed by your ability to remain loyal to a man who's

off making a pretty penny while you rot away behind bars.

Tick tock.

I hope you enjoy your dining experience.

Sam, did you hear?

Debbie's serving sandwiches.

Since when?

I don't know what she's thinking.

What does she know about restaurants?

Honestly, I just feel badly for her.

She's going to find out the hard way that this is what I do best.

Is that my jacket?

Your place is very, um, witsy.

Well, it took some getting used to, but it has its perks. It belonged to my

Uncle Ray. He left it to me.

Before we look at the designs, I want to show you the fabrics I chose to go with

them. That would be great.

I'm introducing a lighter color palette to this world.

I've been working with some natural cotton, some canvas for structure, but

some dressier fabric.

And the soft leather for all the detailing.

That is a lovely combination.

I want women to feel fashionable but still comfortable.

I think clothes should enhance the person, not overpower them.

What really is, at the end of the day, about confidence... Boss, I need your

help. Ambrose, I'm in the middle of something.

Wyatt's gone and he left the pitchfork in the loft.

High up in the loft.

Would you mind waiting just a moment?

Actually, because... Sorry, I didn't mean... You know what?

I'll manage.

Ambrose, wait. Please make yourself at home.

It'll just be a...

It's

lunch. Where is everyone?

Debbie.

Great. Come on.

I didn't mean to take you away from your meeting, boss.

No, it's okay, Ambrose. I know how you feel about heights.

I found it.

Oh, uh, boss?

While you're up there, the extra feed's also up in the loft.

Okay.

Sam, everything okay? No one came for lunch at the hotel.

Well, every restaurant has its slow days.

They're all at Debbie's. She started serving her own sandwiches.

Oh.

What is it?

Is that a sandwich?

What? No.

You too?

I've only had a few bites.

Well, are they any good?

They were delicious.

So you went to her for lunch instead of the hotel?

Well, I think Debbie's my friend.

And everyone's been talking about these.

Not everyone.

Nora.

Maybe Joe.

Joe? We're a community.

There's room for all of us to feel supported.

You're right.

Everyone should feel supported.

Enjoy your sandwich.

Green's accomplice sold them down the river.

Their highway should be near here.

Army's bound to show up there eventually.

Green's already pawned her ring. What then?

Have you prepared your girlfriend for the fact she might not get it back?

She's not my... We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Whatever you say, Constable.

You still make me give you the amount you shouldn't date, bitch.

Is

that

him?

He looks so normal.

What does a pastor do again?

A pastor is kind of like a shepherd.

That's right, Annie.

A pastor is someone who leads and offers wisdom, hope, and spiritual guidance.

What if he doesn't like us?

How can anyone not like you?

I've met him. He seems really nice.

Reverend Daniels, welcome to our picnic.

Over here we have Steve, our Annie, and you met Wally.

Hello. Charlotte and Ruby are inside with Eleanor.

Hi, Reverend Daniels. Hi there.

I thought we could get to know one another over a game of baseball.

Can I hit a home run?

Oh, you can certainly try.

Who here has played before?

I want first base.

All right. I can play third or second.

We have some gloves in the shed. I can go get them. Thank you, Annie.

Okay.

Thank you. Thank you. Cool.

Let's play catch.

Yeah.

How do you feel about being the catcher?

Does it come with safety equipment?

Oh, have a little faith.

Over here.

This really means a lot.

Thank you, Reverend Daniel.

Please, call me Joshua.

We can't give up without a fight.

Give up? Oh, no, no. Oh, no, my good Sam, no. What we need you to do is a

reconnaissance. Assess the competition, you know.

Find out what all the hoopla is about.

How would it look if we show up to our competitor's place of business?

Uh, where is everyone?

Dolores, uh, we have a job for you.

Enjoy.

Dolores!

Nice to see you. What can I get for you? We have turkey and roast beef.

I'd like one of each, please.

Why? You must be hungry.

I'm starved.

Where is she?

She's late picking me up. Now she ditches me.

Oh.

I hope that's mud.

Coming to you?

Hannah, we need to talk.

When she gets back, we'll know. Okay.

I believe these are for you.

One roast beef, one turkey.

Everybody's been saying how great your sandwiches are. We just wanted to try

them. Well, enjoy.

Debbie, you can't be serious about this whole sandwich.

Why can't I?

Well, you already have so much on your plate, you know, with your new shop. Why

add sandwiches?

People in Brookfield want a sandwich, they just come here.

Do they?

That reminds me, I have people waiting for my sandwiches.

Gotta go. All right.

We'll see what all the fuss is about.

How is this?

Awful. But I should try more just to be sure.

Oh, we are in so much trouble. Mm -hmm.

We are.

Mm -hmm.

Oh, that's on foot.

Just what I was thinking.

We're on the field more than I would have thought with this Brookfield

Not as quiet as you were expecting?

I'd say I liked it more than I ever would have thought.

So does Nora Anderson realize she has something to do with your feelings about

Brookfield?

Does she know anything about your past?

The past is the past.

I agree.

I've heard women like men who can open up.

It was 12 years ago. I still remember the feelings of isolation and despair.

I'd been out in the woods for about three days by then.

And under that tree.

I can't imagine how frightened you must have been.

All by yourself.

I had a profound feeling that I wasn't alone.

God was with me.

And a few hours later, I was saved.

Literally and figuratively.

The refrigerator happened along and found me.

Is that what led to your calling?

It is.

I had to do something worthwhile with the life he saved.

I had a huge life change, too.

I was a lawyer.

And now my main focus is taking care of these children.

I haven't had a single moment of regret.

Have you?

No.

I haven't.

Oh, nice hit, Steve.

Nice hit.

Thanks, Reverend Daniel.

Can I try?

Oh, of course you can.

Can you show me?

Yeah.

Of course.

Okay, here we go.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

Close up here and here and there. Okay.

You got it.

I'm so sorry about your outfit.

I'll clean and press these. Bring them to the hotel. Thank you.

I must say, this dress is very comfortable. I like the cut.

Thank you.

Again, I am so sorry.

It does seem like you have a lot going on.

Kind of. It's just Ambrose, he has a fear of heights. I help him out

but I've cleared the rest of my day for us.

And yesterday?

Yesterday, there was an emergency, a problem with our hay.

I see.

I knew that you were living on your uncle's ranch.

I guess I didn't realize you were also running the place.

Of course, I have help.

I so appreciate you coming all the way here.

Please let me finish showing you my designs.

This dress will flow like the one you're wearing, but it'll be made with silk,

so it can be worn in the evening.

This skirt will be made with this velvet.

I must admit, I've never seen anything like these.

They're very fresh.

What do you think?

Well, it could be bigger.

We have to figure out what makes them so special.

Is it because they're so moist?

I don't get it.

Yes, I mean, Debbie's a great baker. You know, her pastries are delicious, but

sandwiches?

Yeah.

It's the bread.

Let me try again.

You'll get the next one. I know you will.

Sorry. Maybe that was wide?

No, it was good. It was a strike.

Deep breath.

Take your time.

Ready?

I'll never do it.

It's not a real game, Wally.

You can go again.

No, I want to play the right way. That was my third try.

Three strikes, you're out.

Oh, Wally.

It takes a while, but you'll get there.

I won't. I'll never hit a home run.

All baseball players strike out sometimes.

Even Babe Ruth.

What? Yeah.

Think he's ever given up?

Hey, let's all step off the bases. I want to show you a secret my high school

coach taught me.

He used to say baseball...

It's all about the hips and the wrists, okay?

How am I ever going to hit a home run that way?

Hey, Johnny.

What do you got there?

Bad idea.

Did that rat turn me in?

You can ask him yourself.

Let's see how you'll be sharing a cell with him.

This look will be corduroy with leather

trim. I like the juxtaposition of color and texture, but it's all inspired by

Brookfield. I think the essence of this place is really soaked into my work.

What do you mean by that?

It's just way out here, away from all the lights in the city. You see the

of the sky and the range. I don't know if you got to see the sunset last night,

but out here, they are spectacular.

I can imagine.

This place, this ranch, it really inspired my work.

Hannah, I like you.

I like your work.

That's why I wanted to invest in you in the first place. I promise I'll do great

work for you. And I believe that you want to.

But I have a lot riding on this.

And if I'm being completely honest, so far, you seem a bit disorganized.

I know. I know. It's just there have been all these emergencies on the ranch.

Yeah, that's just it. It doesn't seem feasible for you to have four different

designs ready for New York and run the ranch.

If you had to give up one of them, which would it be?

Oh.

Um.

I couldn't.

I can't give either one up.

In that case, I'm sorry.

I have to withdraw my support for your collection.

I can't invest in you.

Hey, Maggie.

Hi.

Don't worry, I don't have any of Debbie's sandwiches back here.

I'm sorry.

I overreacted.

Of course you're supporting your friends the way you always support me.

I want you to always feel supported.

I'm sorry I didn't make you feel that way.

Can I help?

That'd be great.

You love this stone, don't you?

Yeah, I'm a bit.

Yes, I got it in India.

Amethyst to calm me.

I, um, tried Debbie's sandwiches.

You were right.

How's it going at the hotel? Any better?

Not great. We're in a crisis.

I'm trying to figure a way out.

Well, don't put so much pressure on yourself. I say that as both a nurse and

your girlfriend.

We can't afford to lose all our lunch business.

Does that have to be a loser?

Debbie's your friend, too.

Isn't there a way you can all win?

What's this?

I thought you'd be knee -deep in design still.

What's going on?

I'm taking Justine back to town.

You're finished already?

I did, in every way.

What's that mean?

Justine decided, I'm sure you'll agree, that it's just not possible for me to

manage the ranch and design my collection.

She's withdrawing her support.

At least now I can focus on ranch work.

And there's that.

You should go.

This is called a prayer squat.

Are we supposed to do this when we pray?

No. Well, I mean, you could.

God would be listening either way.

But no, they're meant to help with baseball.

And indeed, our legs swing.

Those are for baseball?

It looks more like dance class.

How am I going to learn to hit a home run that way?

Babe Bruce doesn't do those?

Well, you know, if you peek down in the dugout, you might see him doing

stretches like this.

Really? Yes, really.

What do you think, Miss Nora?

Well, I think when it comes to prayer or baseball, Reverend Daniel seems to know

what he's talking about.

Thank you.

Oh, back for more sandwiches?

Not exactly. We have a proposition for you, something that might be a win -win

for everyone.

I'm listening.

They're cousins.

Yeah. At least we know they won't kill each other tonight.

Let's hope not.

So did the male passenger and the driver agree to testify?

They did.

But I gather your girlfriend won't be in the area by the time the trial takes

place. She's not, Mike.

Justine did mention something about having to go back to New York. New York?

-hmm. Now that's a ways away.

Yeah, it is.

Found a ring and green stash.

Technically, it's evidence.

Don't we have enough evidence?

So I guess you better get it back to her before she leaves.

Yeah.

So what are you thinking?

I want to talk to Nora about what happened back home.

Opening up old wounds, huh?

She must mean a lot.

Yeah.

She does.

See ya.

Hey, Reagan's ready. You all set?

Yeah, thank you.

Just wanted to wish you a safe trip back to New York.

Thank you for that.

I heard you were thinking that Hannah wouldn't be able to balance her fashion

work and the ranch.

That's right.

I hope you understand, Hannah. I admire your work. It's not about that.

Thank you.

Well, I think we really should get going.

You know, I thought the same thing.

Didn't seem to me Hannah could run this ranch and do her designs.

So we agree.

Seems so.

We don't want to keep the horses waiting.

Not sure we do agree.

Hannah will surprise you.

She has a way of coming through.

I'm afraid I can't just hope it all works out.

I have too much to lose if this falls apart.

What if I handled the ranch?

For a bit.

Borrow hands if I need to.

That way Hannah can focus completely on her design until the show.

You asked if I'd pick the ranch or fashion, but the truth is, I love both.

But with Wyatt taking more on, I guarantee the collection is all I'll

until everything's finished.

You said you liked my work.

I will not let you down. I promise.

You know, my father says you learn the truth about people from their

Given what your foreman just said.

I think we're back in business.

Well, I'll leave you to it.

We have a lot of work to do if you're going to ship me your collection next

week. That's for sure. I was thinking the soft wool jersey with the wave.

And here we go.

On the house. This looks delicious. Thank you for inviting me. Good. You

to relax a little. It's been a long day.

Bon appétit.

Now this is more like it. Yeah.

You know, Sam, I know that I'm used to running everything, but it does feel

to share problems and solutions.

We make a pretty good team, don't we? We do.

It's funny. Before, you know, my sister -in -law was my partner. Now it kind of

feels like my partner is my brother.

What? What?

Oh, what happened here?

I took your advice.

I'm so glad you managed to make it work.

I'm so lucky to have a girlfriend who gives good advice.

Would you like another piece of girlfriend advice?

Always.

It's, um, it's about your new look.

Oh, don't you worry about that. I've ordered a new suit, same.

Style, but these will fit me proper.

Excuse me.

How is everything?

Can I get you a top -upping tea?

How's the soup, Debbie?

It's so good. Excellent.

Hi, folks.

Welcome back. How are we doing?

I had to come and say thank you.

Just told the truth.

You made all the difference.

There'll be a big rush next week, but very exciting.

And after I'm back, I will be all ranch all the time.

Are you sure you can take on more now?

You're working so hard already.

I don't say things I don't mean.

I'm learning that about you.

You go do what you gotta do.

The ranch and I will be here waiting for you.

Good to know.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

All right. Remember,

throw in the hips and the wrists.

Let's see you hit that ball. I'm ready.

Go, Steve!

Go, Steve!

Nice one, Steve.

Constable, perfect.

Come join us.

Nice catch.

You're back.

Yeah. I was hoping to have a word, but you can wait.

Sorry, it's okay, right, if the Mountie plays?

Of course it is.

I got it!

Mountie Fletcher, Reverend Daniels is teaching us everything about baseball.

That's great. All right, time to play some ball.

Constable, if you don't mind covering first, I believe it's Annie's turn at

Miss Marcel.

Constable Reynolds.

Found the thief.

I heard the Mounties always get their man.

Ah, but do they always get the woman?

What was that?

Nothing.

I believe this belongs to you.

You got it back.

It's just the ring, though.

Sorry to say we didn't get your bag. This is all that matters.

I can't tell you what this means to me.

Well, I'm glad we were able to return it.

You know, when I was little, I'd hold my grandma's hand, and I'd see this ring

on her finger.

It made me feel safe.

She sounds like she was someone very special.

She was.

Thank you.

How did the meeting go at the ranch?

Better than yesterday, I hope.

You know, for a bit, I thought that this would be my last visit here.

Sorry to hear that.

But we reached an agreement.

I'll be working with Hannah Lawrence.

And if her collection is successful, I'll be visiting more often.

That would be really nice.

Is this where you're stationed?

No, I'm in Clearwater. But that is your train stop, so next time I could give

you a ride from...

Care to hear?

That would be much safer than stagecoach.

I guess this is goodbye.

You know in Paris that people don't say goodbye.

They say au revoir, until we meet again.

I like the sound of that a whole lot more.

Remember, spring with your whole body.

Why don't we do a few more prayer squats to loosen up, shall we?

Yes, sir.

Okay.

Everyone ready?

Yeah! Yeah!

Woo!

All set, Wally?

You bet.

Oh, you sure did.

Awesome.

You did it, Wally.

I'm sure your father is watching and is looking at you so proud.

I'm thankful for all of the special children in my care. Every Sunday night

on Great American Family.

It's the show that everyone is talking about. A new episode of the hit series,

When Hope Calls, Brookfield.

You're my friend, and I look after my friends.

You're right about Brookfield.

It's no place like it.

I had a profound feeling that I wasn't alone.

God was with me. When Hope Calls, every Sunday night at 8.
