Previously on
"Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman"...

You and your people --
finally free.

You will stay in my heart.

And you will stay in mine.

I'm not much good
at putting feelings into words.

When I asked you to marry me,

I didn't say
all that I should have.

I should've told you that...

from the first time
I laid eyes on you, I thought

you were the most beautiful
woman ever put on earth.

I love you, Teresa...

with all my heart.

Jake --

And I'd be proud and honored
if you'd be my wife.

Wait!
Loren, don't close up.

I'm gonna be late
for a town picnic.

- Did it get here?
- You said you'd be here by 1:00.

Hank didn't get back
from Soda Springs last night.

I had to open the bar.
Is it here?

I got it for ya. I was bringing
it to the picnic for ya.

You didn't lose it?

No, I didn't lose it.

Here. Here it is.

Seems to me
like it's an awful lot of fuss

over such a small package.

See you at the picnic.

I understand that your family's
coming for a visit.

My Aunt Francisca
and my cousin Carlos.

Yes.

They will be here
on tomorrow's train.

Tomorrow? Oh, my!

You must be very excited.

Yes, I am,
and I guess a little nervous.

I can understand.

I always get a little nervous
when my mother comes to visit.

Has it been a long time
since you've seen them?

Three years.

I hope they find
Colorado Springs

as agreeable as I do.

Teresa, could I talk
to you a minute?

Yes, of course.

- Jake...
- Afternoon.

Afternoon.

- It's finally got here.
- What did?

I picked it up at the store
just now.

- Picked up what?
- And not a day too soon.

I was beginning to think
your family

would get here before it did.

Jake, before what got here?

My engagement ring.

It is beautiful.

Came all the way
from New York City.

It was supposed to get here
last week, but, well...

It's here now.

That's the important thing.

Yes.

So...

I guess this makes
it official, huh?

Yes.

Well, in that case...

Jake!

Hey, everybody!

I got an announcement to make.

A couple of weeks ago I asked...

I asked Teresa Morales
to be my wife.

And she was just crazy
enough to say yes.

That's wonderful news, Jake.

It took a while for the ring
to get here, but it came today.

I am very happy...

To give you this symbol
of our engagement

and token of my love.

Best wishes, Miss Teresa.

Thank you, Brian.

- Congratulations, Jake.
- Thank you.

That goes for me.

From all of us.

- We're very happy for you.
- Thank you.

All of us are.

Congratulations, Jake.

Thanks, Reverend.

Listen, I want to talk to you
about performing the ceremony.

I'd be happy to do it.

Ma, Sully!

Cloud Dancing.

No!

Cut him loose, Hank.

I found him on the trail
from Soda Springs.

Let him go.
He's a free man.

He's free
in Indian territory --

not around here.

Don't make me use this.

Put the gun away, Hank.

No Injuns allowed in town.

That was the agreement
with the army.

You're the sheriff.
You're supposed to lock him up.

I know my job.

And I'm gonna do it.
Now, just put the gun away.

Just a minute.

Brian,
will you take Katie home?

We'll be back as soon as we can.

Ma, what's gonna
happen to cloud dancing?

What's going on?

Hank saw Cloud Dancing
on his way back

to Colorado Springs.

He's wiring the army
to put him into custody.

That means they'll take him
to East Fork Reservation.

We won't let it get that far.

He could die there.

Like your ma said,
we won't let it get that far.

You satisfied?

I won't be satisfied
till every last one of them

is out of Colorado for good.

I thought you'd be home by now.

The Northern Territories,
you mean?

Yeah.

That is where I was going.

But...

But the further I rode,
the heavier my heart became.

I stopped to consider
what could be making

each step so difficult.

At first I did not understand,
then I saw how simple it was.

My people are in the North,
but my family is here.

There've been rumors of a
smallpox epidemic in East Fork.

Those are just rumors.

Even if there is no smallpox,

Cloud Dancing is well known
to the authorities there.

Well known and hated, you mean.

They almost killed him
last time.

We have to stop the army
from taking him back.

There's got to be a way.

Hank wired the army. They'll
be here in two days time.

We better have a plan
before they get here.

I got some ideas.

Anything?

- Nothing yet.
- How about you?

I've looked through every book
in the library.

I went by The Gazette.

I got these newspapers
from Denver.

They date back almost a year.

Maybe we can find
something there.

Poor Dorothy.

Oh...
Evening, Miss Dorothy.

I brought some supper
for Cloud Dancing.

It's only food, sheriff.

If you don't mind,
I believe I'll stay out here

and enjoy the night air
while you two talk.

Thank you.

I hope you like fried chicken.

I wasn't planning
on company tonight,

or I would've made
something special.

I'm afraid
this was not my plan, either.

I can't bear to see
you locked up like this!

I am all right.

If I can get you out of this
cell, then we can leave tonight.

We?

I'll go with you
to the Northern Territories...

for good.

If you did that,
you would be a fugitive.

I know.

That is a very brave
and wonderful offer.

It's not brave, it's selfish.

It's what I want.

You would live your life
with strangers --

people who do not speak
your language,

who do not approve of you or us?

Yes.

Never to be able to come home

to see Michaela or Sully
or your friend Loren Bray.

Never to publish
another article, another book.

If it means being with you --

yes.

It does not have
to be one or the other.

There has to be a way
we can have both.

Buenos -- Buenos dias,
Donna Verano.

- Doña. Doña.
- Doña. Doña.

- Doña.
- Don't be nervous.

They will like you very much.

Of course they will.

- Carlos.
- A priest?

Your cousin's a priest?

Tía!

Teresa.

Let me look at you.
Oooh!

You are nothing
but skin and bones, niña!

Tía, I am fine.

Carlos...

You are more than fine --

you are beautiful.

Love agrees with you.

Tía, Carlos...

This is my fiancé, Jake Slicker.

Um...uh...

I -- uh...

Uh...

Uh...

Pleased to meet you.

No es tu novio

hasta que estemos de acuerdo
que es tu novio.

What'd she say?

Very pleased to meet you,
señor.

- Oh, yeah.
- Pleased to meet you.

Yeah, me too.

Well, shall we, uh, adios?

Adios, señor?
Yeah.

Yeah, you know -- vamoose.

Mama,
I believe that Teresa's fiancé

would like to show us his town.

Shall we?

Dr. Mike found
in the Denver paper --

October 17th of last year.

Seems the town of Evans Creek
gave protected status

to an Indian
by the name of One Wolf.

"Protected status" --
what does that mean?

Well, according to the article,

it means that he was free
to travel

from Indian territories
to Evans Creek

whenever he pleased.

Provided it was for trade.

We're thinking
maybe Colorado Springs

would give that kind
of protected status

to Cloud Dancing.

Do you think he'd be willing
to do something like that?

I don't see why he wouldn't.

We'd have to get approval
from town council.

Matthew's gonna draw up
a proclamation similar

to the one the town council of
Evans Creek signed.

We'll give it to the army
when they come back here

to get Cloud Dancing.

Ugh!
The army -- they'll never agree.

They might.

We got to make them.

And if we fail?

We can't.

The trade will be good
for your people

and Colorado Springs.

But even if the town council
and the army agree,

will your people
allow me to live here freely?

Well, you can come live
at our homestead.

You can make your home
on my land.

It's private property.

Nobody'd bother you there,
and I'd --

I'd finally
be putting it to good use.

Cloud dancing...

That land has belonged
to your people

long before it belonged to me.

I'd be real proud
to share it with you now.

It is an honor
to have such friends.

I thought you would stay
in the boardinghouse with me,

but Jake insisted.

Only the best.

He saved two
of his finest rooms for you.

Everything in them
is practically brand new.

Muchos gracias, señor.

We'll be most comfortable here.

Yes.

And such interesting decor.

I want you to make
yourself right at home, now.

You need anything --
you let me know.

Of course, we don't have
any of that Mexican stuff

you're used to.

Doña Verano, I'd like you
to meet Hank Lawson.

He's my partner
here at the hotel.

Hank, this is Teresa's aunt,
Doña Verano and her father --

cousin -- cousin, Father Carlos.

Pleased to meet you, padre.
Doña.

I just heard
about your engagement.

I guess the drinks are on me.

Perhaps some water, Hank...

Please.

Water.

Sure thing.

That's about your speed
nowadays.

You said you two are partners?

Yes.

Jake and Hank worked very hard
to build this hotel together.

Un hotel para borrachos
y prostitutas.

I beg your pardon?

My mother admires your very,
um...

colorful establishment.

Jake also owns a barbershop,
tía.

As you know, well, he is --

he is the mayor of the town.

Second term now.

Primero, dejaste que Guillermo
te llenara la cabeza

de fantasías y cargara contigo
hasta América -- América!

Sounds like she don't
care too much for this side

of the border.

Ahora, apenas hace un
año falleció Guillermo

y ya te quieres
casar con uno de ellos.

What'd she say?

Tía, Jake es un buen hombre.

Y tú eres una niña muy tonta.

Mama.

Everything all right?

Yes, Jake.

As always...

my aunt only
speaks out of concern for me.

Teresa!

¿Vienes?

Sí, mi tía.

It's not right.

Let me know
whatever I can do to help.

We're hoping we can count
on your vote, Robert E.

You got it, Sully.

Cloud Dancing's a good man.

I'd be happy
to keep him in town.

As long as he's kept
behind bars.

We can't allow Indians
to roam freely.

We'd be breaking the law.

We're trying to change
that law, Preston --

make Cloud Dancing
the exception to the rule.

The reason being?

He could represent the Indians

in their trade agreement
with our town.

Trade agreement?

Well, I suppose there might be
some interest from tourists,

and the novelty
of Indian blankets and such

sold by a genuine Indian.

As a matter of fact,

I'd be happy to have
Cloud Dancing sell his wares

at my hotel.

I've always been
rather fond of them,

and perhaps he'd be willing
to demonstrate a few

of his Indian dances
for my guests.

Well...

I'll see you
at the council meeting.

Thank you, Robert E.

Now, we still
need one more vote.

We can forget Hank.
He's a lost cause.

I'll try talking
to Jake and Loren.

Trade with the Injuns?

What for?

I thought as mayor, Jake,

you'd surely see its value
to the economy of this town.

I can see the folks around here
ain't gonna welcome no Injuns.

Jake, my cousin -- excuse me.

Cloud Dancing will be
the only Indian

offered protected status
under this proclamation.

He's still an Injun.

An Indian who tried to stop
the warriors' raids in our town.

Fought for peace
between the army and the tribes.

Jake, you've known
Cloud Dancing for years now.

He's shown you nothing
but kindness and respect.

You don't truly
believe that he'd --

he'd do anything
to cause any trouble?

All right, Dr. Mike.

Thank you, Jake.

- Mrs. morales.
- Dr. Quinn.

What were you saying
about your cousin?

Oh, yes.

Carlos would like
to speak with us.

It is customary in my religion

for a couple to seek
counseling from a priest...

before they're married.

Oh.

Then let's go seek counsel.

Michaela's working
on getting more votes for you

on the town council.

Is that not what we want?

Yeah...

I just don't want folks
around town here looking at you

like your's some kind
of dressed-up Indian chief

in a wild west show.

Cloud Dancing, you can be to
the Indian territory before --

Sully, no.

No more running.

I have made my decision.

I will stay.

All right.

You have brought
my cousin much happiness, señor.

For this, I am grateful.

Still, I must tell you,

I would be more satisfied if you
would also share in our faith.

Don't worry about that.
I believe in God.

That's a good start.

Mm-hmm.

And I already told Teresa,

"You want to raise the kids
Catholic --

go right ahead."

Jake understands how important
this is to me.

Muy bien.

This makes me very happy.

Still, the children
will look to both parents, yes?

They'll want to know what is
their father's commitment,

what is their father's beliefs.

Are you ready, señor, to set
an example for your children,

to live a righteous life

and to share the teachings
of our church?

Yeah.

Yes, I am.

Well, then you're prepared to
attend, uh, mass every Sunday?

Uh...

The closest Catholic church
is in Denver, Carlos.

I must ride three hours
by train.

It's three hours
we can spend together.

Then this, uh, this priest
in Denver, he will marry you?

Oh, no, Carlos!

- Of course not.
- You will marry us.

Oh! Well.

I did not wish to presume.

Actually,

I already spoke to the reverend
about doing the wedding.

The reverend?

But he is not Catholic, Jake,

and we have a priest right here.

Right.

Right.

Fine with me.

Loren,
another glass of whiskey?

I really shouldn't,
but if you insist.

Given the nature
of the occasion.

You really ought to get
married more often, Jake.

Oh, uh, excuse me,
sarsaparilla...

señor?

So, how does it feel, Jake,
leaving bachelorhood behind?

Feels damn good.

You're a lucky man, Jake.

Teresa's a good woman.

And a beautiful woman.

Bet there'll be plenty of spice

in that marriage --
in the kitchen.

Them Mexicans cook
with lots of spice.

You plan on having
many children, Jake?

We haven't really talked
about it.

I imagine at least five or six.

What are you gonna name
all them little brown babies?

Who says
they're gonna be brown?

The two of you mix, at least
some of them is gonna be brown.

Is that right, Andrew?

Why, I --

Well, when combined with --

Yes.

The darker pigment could be...

dominant.

See there, Jake?

So, is it gonna
be little Paco Slicker?

Pedro Slicker.

Poncho Slicker!

Very funny.

Let's get serious.

In honor of your wedding,
we've gotten together --

Hank -- and gotten you something
really special.

Aw, you fellas,
you didn't have to do that.

Sure we did, Jake.

There you go.

To Señor Slicker!

All: señor slicker!

You send the army a telegram
about transferring an Injun.

Now you're telling me
you want to keep him?

That's right, sergeant.

Town council has to vote
on it first.

We're meeting shortly,
sergeant.

If you'd please wait.

Man's freedom's at stake.

You can't agree to this, Loren.

First it's letting
Cloud Dancing back in,

then it's a few of his friends,
before you know it

the whole damn tribe will be
camping out in the meadow.

All right! All right!

You made your point.

Cloud Dancing
isn't like other Injuns.

I'm sure
he is not if you say so,

but there are others
that are not so harmless.

Teresa, I know what them
renegades done to you.

And every time
I look at my scars,

I think about that fire,

and the pain,
how I lost my home.

Jake, if you allow
Cloud Dancing to stay,

I'm afraid others may follow.

Jake!

Coming.

Loren, I've been
looking for you.

- We have to talk.
- No more talking.

- Let's vote.
- Yeah. Let's vote.

- Hold on.
- All right.

All those in favor
of letting Cloud Dancing stay.

Jake?

All those against.

- Wait a minute.
- It's settled.

But we haven't even --

We voted, Dr. Mike.

You lost.

Cloud Dancing gets hauled off
to East Fork.

Jake!

Jake, you said you were gonna
vote for the proclamation.

- I changed my mind.
- Well, it's not too late.

You can still change your vote.

They haven't taken
Cloud Dancing yet.

I thought the better of it,
and that's all there is to it.

You don't have to handcuff him.

- Sorry, ma'am.
- I just want to say goodbye.

It's for everybody's safety.

Nobody's safety
is at stake here, sergeant.

We're gonna find a way.

We're gonna find a way.

We're not giving up, Dorothy.

He's right.

I'll ride up to East Fork and
talk to the Indian agent there.

We've talked
to the Indian agents.

You know what they're like.

We'll write to Owen Smith.

We've written letters,
Michaela -- endless letters.

We'll figure out a plan.

We had a plan.

It got him safe passage
to the northern territories.

It's my fault.

No, Dorothy.

- Sully...
- I'm going after him.

We will go after him.

First we need to get
the proper ammunition.

We have a plan, a good plan --

Matthew's proclamation.

All we need to do
is change the council's vote.

Once we get the proclamation
signed we'll ride after them,

and then they have to release
Cloud Dancing.

One vote -- that's all
we need to change.

We can forget about Hank.

I'll go talk to Loren.

I'll speak with Jake.

Reverend.

Jake?
Did you forget something?

No. I --

I wanted to --

It's real important, uh,
to Teresa, to her family,

that her cousin
be the one to marry us.

Oh.

Well, of course, I mean,
he is a priest.

I wanted you to do it, but...

You got to keep the family
happy, right?

Well...

I can't say
that I'm not disappointed, Jake.

It's just that her family's got
all these ideas

about the way things
are supposed to be, you know.

Does this mean that you'll be
converting to Catholicism?

I said I'd go to church
with her.

Really?

That's a big commitment, Jake.

Yeah.

Well, now, I guess that's
just one of the great...

challenges of marriage.

Just adjusting to each other's
way of doing things.

Just seems like I'm the one
that's doing all the adjusting.

Loren.

Now, Sully, I know
Cloud Dancing is your friend.

He's never done you
any harm, has he?

And I don't wish him any harm.

He's gonna be getting
a lot of it in East Fork.

It ain't my doing.

It's your vote
that's sending him there.

Well...
I'm sorry about that,

but I just think
he shouldn't ought to be here.

Loren, look...

Have you ever thought
about how Dorothy feels?

She was happy for you
when you found someone to love.

She's better off this way.

Teresa, Doña Verano, Carlos,

I really think
we oughta consider

having the reverend
do the wedding.

Ya ves que poco te respetan?

Excuse me. Would you please
speak in English?

I was not speaking to you,
Señor Slicker.

Well, that's another thing.

Don't you think
it's kind of rude

to speak behind someone's back
when they're in front of you?

I will be happy to talk with
you in English, Señor Slicker.

No, tía, por favor.

And I will tell you everything
that I have been telling Teresa.

You have no respect
for my niece,

and you wish to deny her
a wedding in her own religion.

That's between Teresa and me.

And furthermore, you own a
hotel that employs prostitutes.

Now, wait.
Those girls are not --

I have been told

that you have a reputation
for drunkenness and violence.

Tía, please.

And that your future is morally
and financially bankrupt.

I hope my English is clear,
señor.

Teresa, do you agree with her?

Teresa,
on your mother's deathbed

I promised her
that I would take care of you.

If you marry this man, you
will be walking on her grave.

Teresa...

Jake.

This is not the way
I wanted this to be.

I'm confused.

Confused?

Well, let me clear it up
for you -- the wedding's off.

Teresa...

no llores, mi hijita.

I've been looking for you,
Jake.

If you came to talk
about Cloud Dancing,

you picked a lousy time.

The wedding's off.

Jake, I'm terribly sorry.

I thought everything
was gonna change.

She loved me.
We'd get married,

live happily ever after.

Happily ever after...

I must've been crazy.

Perhaps you and Teresa
can work things out.

We ain't all like you and Sully
with your perfect life.

No one's life's perfect.

We've had our share
of difficulties.

You know that.

All families do.

You've changed a lot recently,
Jake. I've seen it.

Yeah. I thought so, too,
but nothing ever changes.

I'm still the same old.

It isn't easy,

but you've been trying,
and I was impressed

when you said you'd vote for
Cloud Dancing's proclamation.

Yeah. I said I would,
but I didn't.

That's right.
You didn't.

Like I said --
nothing ever changes.

Nothing ever changes
unless we change it.

If you want to sit here
and feel sorry for yourself,

then go ahead...

and take that drink!

In time, Teresa, you will see
that this is for the best.

That was not the man for you.

Your place is with us
at home,

with your family
and your people.

But my students...

There are many children
that you can teach

in your own country.

We will help you
to gather your belongings,

and then you can leave with us
on the next train.

Excuse me.

Teresa, could I talk to you
for a minute?

Certainly.

Teresa!

I'm sorry
about what happened before,

and I know I'm not the kind
of man

that some folks
think is right for you,

but I know one thing for sure --

I love you, Teresa,

and I will do my best
to make you happy

if you'll still have me.

Señor...

She has made her decision.

Yes, tía, I have.

I would be proud and honored
to be your wife.

Teresa, you are throwing away
your life with this man.

Your mother would --

My mother believed in love,
tía.

And I know she would be happy

to see
that I have found love again.

My life is here now with Jake.

I hope you can understand that.

And I would be most pleased
and honored

if you and Carlos would stay
for our wedding.

I could never give my blessing
to this marriage.

Come, Carlos, we must leave.

No, Mama.

I have a wedding to attend.

Thank you.

Dr. Mike.

Come on. The others are waiting.

What? Where are you going?

I'm calling
a town council meeting.

- Now?
- Yes, now. Come on.

- What's this all about?
- I don't know.

He just said it was important.

Good, you're still here.

What's going on, Jake?

What's going on is I've been
doing a lot of thinking

about Cloud Dancing --

I've decided to change my vote.

What?

I think it would be a good idea
to have him

as a trading partner --

selling stuff in Loren's store,

letting the other Injuns know
our town wants peace.

You can't change your vote.

The town charter allows
all of us that privilege, Hank.

Anybody else want to change
their vote?

You don't need my vote.

I know we don't need it.

I thought you might want
to change for the record...

for Dorothy's sake.

[ Sighs

Well, putting it that way --

all right, I'll change my vote.

Fine, then.

I suppose you and Sully
will be needing that.

- Thank you, Jake.
- I'll tell Dorothy.

Stop!

Hold up!

Our town council
took another vote.

They changed their minds.

Colorado Springs is allowing
Cloud Dancing to stay.

He's got protected status now.

Turn him over to us.

This is a legal document,
sergeant.

All you got to do is sign it.

Let him go.

But hear this --

He's your problem now.

He gives you any more trouble,
don't send for us

'cause we ain't coming.

Don't worry.
We won't.

Let's go home.

Cloud Dancing!

Thank you.

Look at that.

And do you, Jake,
take Teresa for your wife?

Do you promise to be true to her
in good times and in bad,

in sickness or in health,

and to love her and honor her
all the days of your life?

I do.

And do you, Teresa,
take Jake to be your husband,

to have and to hold
from this day forward,

for better, for worse,

for richer, for poorer,

in sickness and in health,

to love and cherish,
as long as you both shall live?

I do.

Now that you have given
yourselves to each other

by solemn vows...

I now pronounce you husband
and wife.

Those whom god has joined
together let no man put asunder.

You may now kiss the bride.
