O-C-U -- No.

O-C-C-U-R-R-E-D.

That's right --
two C's and two R's.

Two C's, two R's.

Phenomenon.

P-H-E-N-O-M-E-N-O-N.

Good.

Give me a harder word.

Um...

Annihilate.

That's not hard.

A-N-N-I-H-I-L-A-T-E.

Oh, there you are,
sweetheart.

You're up now.

You had a nice, long sleep.

Ma, was that right?

Oh, I'm sorry, Brian.

I didn't hear you.

Ooh, you're wet.

Is that why you were crying?

A-N-N-I-H-I-L-A-T-E.

I'm gonna give you
a nice, warm bath.

Would you like that?

Ma.

Oh, Brian.

Um, well, we'll continue
with this tomorrow.

But the spelling bee's
tomorrow.

You're gonna be there,
aren't you?

Of course.
I wouldn't miss it.

Why don't you finish
with your chores,

and, um, we'll do
some more drills later,

after I get Katie in bed?

Oh, look at you.

Your big, bright eyes
watching everything.

Hey, Brian.

Hey, Sully.

Matthew.

What's goin' on?

I just came by to see if you
could give me a hand.

I had to arrest
one of the Watson boys.

Why is that?

He stole a cow.

A cow?

Just one cow?

That's right.

Did he slaughter it?

Yeah.

The town was gonna hang
Ingrid's brother

when he stole a cow
'cause his family was starving.

The way I remember it,

you helped him out
'cause you were his friend.

Well, I ain't gonna hang
this fella,

but I do gotta keep him in jail
for a few days.

Matthew, his family's havin'
a hard time right now.

- They really need him.
- What am I supposed to do?

I can't have folks runnin'
around breakin' the law

- and gettin' away with it.
- Look, Matthew --

I just came by to see
if you'd check in on Watson

while I'm away.

Where you goin'?

Cascade Valley.

Why is that?

The Danforth Company's havin'
some trouble up that way.

They wired me for help.

Danforth Company?

They're buildin' something
out that way,

and their supplies
are gettin' hijacked.

Well, when are you
gonna be back?

It shouldn't be long, as soon
as I get things under control.

Probably by the end of the week.

Maybe I better go with you.

I can handle it.

You be careful.

Sully, I can take care of this.

Here you are, gentlemen.

Where's the rest of the money?

You'll get the balance
when the job is completed.

How long will it take
to get to this place --

What's it called?

Cascade Valley.

Half a day
if we move pretty quickly.

What's goin' on
at the Cascade Valley?

Business.

What kind of business?

The Danforth Company's
going to build a dam

above the Cascade River.

Danforth.

They're going to flood
the Cascade Valley.

He can't do that.

Apparently he can.

Well, that's
the winter feedin' ground

for most of the elk
in this area.

It won't be in the future.

They're gonna have to find
somewhere else to dine.

It's also one of the most

beautiful valleys
in the territory.

It's all gonna be underwater...

unless we can persuade them

that the dam is a poor idea.

What do you care
about this dam, Preston?

It'll dry up the river
that runs by my spa.

That's one
of our main attractions.

People like to fish,
stroll along.

If they build that dam,

I won't have a riverside resort.

I'll have a hotel
by a dry riverbed.

I can't let that happen.

I asked Robert E. to look in
on Watson while he's in jail.

I just got to make sure
that Matthew

knows what he's gettin' into.

I can't believe that Matthew
would intentionally help someone

who's gonna flood the valley.

He's a lawman. It's his job.

Well, he mustn't be aware
of what Danforth is up to.

Or Preston.

I didn't like
the look of his friends.

Be careful.

I shouldn't be gone long.

What is it, sweet girl, huh?
What is it?

Come on. Hyah. Hyah.

Come on.

Opossum.

O-P-O-S-S-U-M.

Correct.

Vociferous.

V-O-C-I-F-E-R-O-S?

I am sorry.
It is E-R-O-U-S.

But you did very well --
six correct.

Next is Brian Cooper.

Your first word is "sheriff."

S-H-E-R-I-F-F.

Correct.

Forfeit.

F-O-R-F-E-I-T.

Correct.

Opportunity.

O-P-O-R-T-U-N-I-T-Y.

That is incorrect.

There are two P's
in "opportunity."

Thank you, Brian.

Next is Tess Randall.

Your first word is "beautiful."

Right up there
is where they stopped us before.

Came right outta nowhere.

Well, it looks all right now.

Let's just ease on ahead,
nice and steady.

We're gonna put
the mill here.

This way, we can cut the trees
right here, mill them,

ship them out on railroad cars
straight to Denver.

Do you have any idea
how much time and money

that's gonna save us?

And I can appreciate that.

There's a boom going on
in Denver.

They need lumber,
and they need it fast.

All I'm suggesting
is that you build the dam

at a different sight --
say, Fountain Creek.

And why would I do that?

Because if you build it here,

it'll ruin this whole valley,

and it'll dry up the river
that runs past Colorado Springs.

You've got other sources
of water.

If you build in Fountain Creek,
Mr. Danforth,

I am prepared to arrange
excellent financing

for all your loans.

Not interested.

Two points less than what
you're paying now.

Don't you understand?

I own this land.
I'm here.

In two more days, the dynamite
arrives, and we start blasting.

I'm urging you to reconsider
in the strongest terms.

The answer is no.

We'll see about that.

Brian, I'm so sorry.

Where were you, Ma?

Katie was sick.

And she was running a fever.

What's wrong with her?

Well, it's just a mild catarrh,

but I couldn't bring her
with me,

and I didn't want to leave her
here with anyone else.

I'm so disappointed
I wasn't able to come.

That's all right.

I gotta do some chores.

Well, wait, wait.
Sit down.

Tell me
about the spelling bee.

Tess won.

Oh?

Well, how did you do?

Not very good.

Well, you were so well-prepared.

I missed
the word "opportunity."

Well, you know how
to spell that.

I got mixed up.

Well, it happens to everyone.

I'm sure you'll do better
next time.

I gotta do some chores.

Left a little more.

All right, let's check that.

All right, let's see here.

Sheriff Cooper.

Any trouble?

None at all.

Came up the same route,
didn't see a soul.

Good.

I figure I'll make
one more pass with 'em.

Whoever's out there
will get the message.

Afraid I'm gonna need you
here.

There's some strangers
comin' around here.

I don't like the looks of 'em.

One of 'em's lookin' for you.

Sully.

What are you doin' here?

Preston's here.

I saw him leavin' town
with some hired men.

Hired? What for?

He doesn't want the dam here.

Looks like they're set
on causin' trouble.

Well, that's why I'm here.

This Danforth, you know
what he's plannin' on doin'?

Buildin' a dam.

He's gonna blast out the side
of the mountain,

destroy all that land.

He owns the land.

He can build whatever he wants
on it.

What about the people
who live below the dam

who won't be able
to get water from the river?

Don't they have rights?

Sully, I know you feel
strongly about this.

- Well, don't you?
- Yes!

Sure...

But I also feel strongly
about doin' my job.

I'm just here to help you --

- I don't need your help.
- Matthew --

The fact is,
I don't need you here...

...so why don't you go home?

Gentlemen,
that point is irrelevant.

What's crucial
is to stop Danforth

by blocking
the dynamite delivery.

And what we need to do
is to strike quickly

and show a clear demonstration
of force.

The wagon with the dynamite.

We fix it so it never arrives.

When it reaches the pass,
we ride out just like before.

I tell 'em to halt,
get off the wagon,

then you get on and drive away,

and I finish 'em both off.

You're not suggesting
we kill someone?

It's cleaner.
No witnesses.

All we need to do
is stop the dynamite

to keep Danforth
from blasting.

He'll just order
another shipment from Denver.

But if we kill the drivers,

no one will want
to bring a wagon in here.

No, you're just being paid

to stop the dam
from being built --

nothing else.

What's goin' on here?

What do you want?

Don't worry, gentlemen.

Sully is just as much against
building this dam

as we are.
Isn't that right, Sully?

This is wrong.
You shouldn't be doin' this.

Sully...

awkward as it may be,

we're both
on the same side here.

I need your help.

Ride along with us.

You can help me
keep these two in line.

Forget about it.

It's only a temporary measure.

I'm going to petition
the circuit court for a restraining order,

and I've wired people
in Washington,

but that takes time.

If we can remove the dynamite,
we'll gain that time.

And, if you come along,

we'll make sure
no one gets hurt.

Sully, listen to me.
Do you want this dam built?

Then this is the only way.

No, it ain't.

Did you get
all your schoolwork done?

Brian?

Is something wrong?

I'm just not hungry.

You're not your usual self.

You're a little bit warm.

Perhaps you're catching
what Katie had.

Do you feel achy all over?

I don't know.

Perhaps you shouldn't go
to school today.

I'll take you with me
to the clinic.

There's a wild orchid
that grows in this valley.

Doesn't grow anywhere else.

There's eagles in these trees,

and there's trout
in that stream over there.

They're all gonna be gone
if you do this.

They'll find another home.

I know this don't mean much
to you,

but it might mean something
to your children

and to their children.

They might want to come here
and hunt and fish,

enjoy all this beauty
God created.

And what about the beauty
that man creates?

Have you ever seen a dam
in operation?

It's a marvel of engineering.

Once you destroy this valley,
it's gone forever.

It's obvious we're
in complete disagreement here.

There's people
want to stop you.

They don't care what it takes.
Somebody might get hurt.

Sheriff.

I believe this man
is attempting to threaten me.

I'll talk to him.

I asked you to leave.

There's something
we got to talk about.

You got to stop checkin' up
on me.

This ain't about
checkin' up on you.

- We got other problems.
- Like what?

Why don't you come with me
and I'll show you.

- Sully --
- Just -- Just come with me.

Here's some willow-bark tea.

It should help
bring your fever down.

Thanks, Ma.

Be careful. It's hot.

You hungry?

Would you like some soup?

No. I'm fine.

Well, perhaps it would be good
if you took a nap.

I don't feel sleepy.

Would you like me
to read to you?

You don't have to, but --

Oh.

What about "Robinson Crusoe"?

My father
used to read this to me

when I was home
and sick in bed.

I can read it myself.

No. I want you
to rest your eyes.

"I was born in the year 1632
in the city of York

"of a good family,
though not of that country.

"There,
my father married my mother

"whose relations
were named Robinson,

"a very good family
in that country.

"For them,
I was called Robinson.

"Our English neighbors corrupted
my father's name into Crusoe,

"and, therefore, my playmates
call me Robinson Crusoe.

"My father,
who was very ancient,

had given me a competent share
of learning..."

Remember this place?

Of course I remember.

That's where we built
the sweat lodge.

I had to climb this tree to get
the egg of a red-tailed hawk.

I got scratched real bad.

Cloud Dancer
made me do it again

because the egg
had a crack in it.

I don't think I slept
the whole three days

you were on vision quest.

Your mom was so worried,
she came ridin' out here.

On the last day...

I was sittin' in the sun,

thinkin' about
all the folks I love,

and this hawk came,
landed right beside me.

It was amazin'.

All this will be gone.

No tree...

no meadow...

no hawks.

Matthew, listen to me.

Preston and his men
are gonna make sure

that that shipment of dynamite
don't get through.

Sheriff.

Sheriff.

I feel bad...

but I gotta do my job.

There you go.

I've just finished
feeding Katie.

And if you're ready,
we'll ride into town together.

Now, don't forget
your schoolbooks.

I'm still feelin' kind of warm.

Your fever's gone.

Are you sure?

I'm kind of achy.

Maybe I should stay home
for one more day.

I definitely think
you're on the mend.

Now, why don't we
give it a try?

I'll be at the clinic
if you need me.

Come on.

Oh, Katie.

Preston!

All right.

I'll help you
get that dynamite

to buy you some time, like you
said, but no shootin'.

Either one of you
fires a shot,

and I'll be right on your back,
and I'll haul you to jail.

You understand?

Let's go.

All right, here they come.

Remember, no shootin'.

Hah!

Hey! Hold it up right here!

Hold it! All right!

Put your hands up!
Now! Get 'em up!

Wait a minute!
What is this?!

These boxes are empty!

Where's the dynamite?!

I-I don't know.

You're lyin'!

They sent it on another wagon,

on the Jamestown Road.

It's true.

I swear. Please.

Ray!

Hyah!

Come on!

Preston!

Get down here!

He's still alive!

Get him back to camp!

Hyah!

I didn't see anything.

By the time I arrived,
the bandits were gone.

We got the bullet out,

but they're still
both unconscious.

We'll know more
when they come to.

The plan worked, Sheriff.

How'd you happen to be there?

I was returning back to town.

- With your friends?
- Friends?

The two men you were with.

No, they left earlier.

In fact, they were
in the opposite direction,

- towards Denver.
- Why'd they leave?

- Our business was concluded.
- So you were alone?

Yes. I heard a commotion
somewhere on the road behind me.

I heard gunshots.
I turned and rode back.

Let me get this straight

You turned around and rode back
towards the shots?

I was cautious.
I kept out of sight

until I was sure there was
no one around but the drivers.

- Were they unconscious?
- Yes.

Preston,
if you have information

that you're keeping
from the law,

then you're an accessory.

I've told you all I know.

Time is up.

Hand in your test, please.

Thank you.

Brian, you have not finished.

Sorry.

I must take it now.

Thank you.

Hello, Brian.

- Hello, Ma.
- How was school?

All right.

Well, how'd you do
on your arithmetic test?

I failed.

You failed the test?

Well, perhaps it's because
you missed school.

I don't want to talk about it.

Well, you've never failed
a test before.

Well, I have now.

Brian, I-I think
we should talk about it.

It's just one test!

I gotta get home...
do some chores.

Sheriff, the driver's
just come to.

How many men were there?

Three.

Can you describe 'em?

Well, two of them were --
I don't know.

They had hats and guns --
nothin' special.

But the third one was different.

How's that?

Was he dressed different?
More fancy?

No. Kind of like an Injun.

An Injun?

Well, he wasn't an Injun,

but he had long hair --
brown hair --

and a coat made out of
that buckskin the Injuns use.

Sounds like that man
who was looking for you.

I thought you took care of him.

Don't worry.

I will.

Come on! Come on!

Giddyap! Giddyap!

Hyah!

Come on! Come on!

Dang horse!

Hah! Hah!

Come in.

Dr. Quinn.
Good afternoon.

May I...

Certainly.

How are your classes going?

Very well, thank you.

I'm getting to know
my students better.

- It takes time.
- I'm sure.

I wanted to talk to you
about Brian.

He's always done well
at school.

Extremely well.

Yes.

I understand he failed
his arithmetic test.

He only completed
half the test.

Well, what happened?

I am not sure.

I am glad you came to see me
because I wanted to ask,

is there something at home
that could be troubling him?

No.

Sometimes, if there is
a problem in the home,

there will be a problem
in the school.

I can assure you
there's no problem at home.

Perhaps there's
a problem here...

with another student or...

With the teacher?

Well, he's never failed
a test before.

Brian and I have no problem.

Well, then, what do you
suppose it is?

Haven't you noticed a change
in him the past few weeks?

He is not paying attention.
His mind wanders.

Well, that's not like Brian.

Something is disturbing him.

If you wish, I can talk to him

and try and find out
what is troubling him.

No, that won't be necessary.

I'll talk to him.

Thank you.

Ho!

Hyah!

Yah!

Sully!

What are you doin' here?

Come down here.

The man who shot the driver --
he's up here!

- I want to talk to you.
- Come on!

He tried to kill 'em both!
Hurry up! We got to move fast!

So you were there.

Look, Matthew,
I will explain to you later.

No!

You will explain it to me now!

It's not what you think.

You ambushed that wagon.

You don't know the whole story.

I know all I need to know.

You are letting him get away.

Forget about him!
I'm talkin' to you!

You tried to steal
that dynamite.

It was to stop the dam.

Two men are lying in camp
in serious condition!

I didn't shoot him!

You haven't been honest with me
since this thing started!

You've been tellin' me one thing
and doin' somethin' else!

I was trying to make sure
that no one got hurt.

That's my job!

You should've let me
handle this

instead of trying
to take this on yourself!

You're not the law!
I'm the law!

And I'm arresting you.

Put those away.

Let's go.

Brian?

I went to see Mrs. Morales
today.

Why'd you do that?

Well, we've both been
very concerned about you,

and I've been thinking
now that Colleen's

off at school
and Matthew's on his own,

I've had to rely on you more
for help,

and, well, there have been
extra chores.

I don't mind.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

I want you to know
that thanks to all your help,

you've made it possible for me
to spend extra time with Katie,

and for that,
I'm really grateful to you.

But now I realize
that your chores

might be taking time away
from your schoolwork and --

That's not it.

Then what is it, Brian?

What's troubling you?

I'm sorry
I missed your spelling bee.

That's not it, either.

Then what is it?

Please, tell me.

I-I-It's nothin'.

I love you, Ma.

Sully! Matthew!

Is everything all right up --

What is it?
What's wrong?

I had to arrest Sully.

What for?

Attempted robbery.

Robbery?

I was tryin'
to stop the dam, and...

things got out of hand.

Well, surely there are
some other means --

There are legal ways.

There wasn't enough time.

Once they blast out the side
of that mountain, it's gone forever,

and I couldn't just stand there
and watch them do that.

So you took up
with those gunmen.

They were plannin' an ambush!
That's why I went!

Taking care of that is
what I was hired to do.

I didn't want you gettin' hurt.

That's my job.

It's my decision.

Wait. Wait just a minute.

Sully, who are these other men?

The ones Preston hired.

Preston says he didn't have
anything to do with this.

- Well, he was there.
- Nobody saw him.

Well, he made sure of that.

Trouble was, I couldn't control
those two men.

That's why I went with --
to make sure nobody got hurt.

The plan was just to take
the dynamite,

and I told them over and over
again -- no shootin'.

Come on!

You go ridin' up with guns,
there's always a chance

that somebody's gonna get shot.

Well, what happened then?

Well, when Ray saw we
got tricked, he shot the driver cold.

And he was gonna shoot the other
one, but I pushed him out of the way.

The gun went off,
but nobody got hit.

Sully, you
could've been killed.

What do you propose to do now?

I got no choice.

I'm gonna have to wire
for the circuit-court judge.

It'll be all right.

It'll be all right.

Matthew.

Dr. Mike.

Did you wire the judge yet?

I did.

He'll be here tomorrow.

The hearing
should be in the afternoon.

Dr. Mike,
I didn't want to do this.

You got to know that.

I know.

I told Sully, "Stay out of it."

He wouldn't listen to me.

He gave me no choice.

I know that you're angry
with Sully,

and I understand that
you're just doing your job,

but I'm hoping that in doing so,

that you'll listen
to all sides of the story

and investigate them fully.

I think you better tell me
what happened out there.

I've already told you.

So did Sully.

I'm standing by my account.
Now, if you'll excuse me.

I know you planned that ambush.

I put a warrant out
for Billy and Ray, and when they're caught --

- Ray and Billy?
- You were seen with them at the camp.

They match the description
given by the drivers.

- So?
- So folks saw you give 'em money.

For legitimate work
they did at the hotel.

I've got the receipts
to document it.

You hired them
to ambush that shipment.

Sully will testify
against you.

It'll be his word
against mine.

Exactly.

I'm a banker,

a respected member
of this community.

He'll be a convicted felon
by then.

No one will believe him.

I wouldn't bet on that.

I got enough grounds
to hold you right now in jail

and let the judge decide
which one of you he believes.

Do you want to take that chance?

Or?

Or you could testify
at Sully's trial.

As to what?

What you saw --

that Sully tried to stop that
shooting and save the driver.

And you would...
drop the matter at that?

Like you said...

I've got no hard proof...

yet.

I'd be happy to testify
on Sully's behalf, Sheriff.

I find the defendant,
Byron Sully,

guilty as charged.

I sentence you, Mr. Sully,

to six months in jail.

However, because of the
extenuating circumstances --

five months suspended,

with one week off
for time served --

three weeks in jail
starting today.

Sully...

I know you did
what you had to do.

And so did you.
