On when calls
the heart...

Haven't you ever lost someone
so close to your heart

that it tears you apart?

Not yet.

Christopher, look, I made a lot
of bad decisions.

I'd like to see you avoid
that pitfall if you can.

Did I ask you to marry me?

You did.

Good.

I hope you know how happy
I am to have you in my life.

I would like you to reconsider

adding mrs. Thornton
onto the guest list.

Judge avery, we can begin now.

Everyone's here.

The more things change,
the more things stay the same.

Unfortunately,
for better or worse.

Lately that's not how life
has been feeling to me.

I'd like to discuss
what happened the other day.

At the adoption ceremony?

Yes.

At the adoption ceremony.

I'm concerned about allie.

I didn't know that you were
gonna be the only one invited.

And may I add

that I was probably just as
uncomfortable as you were?

Allie didn't discuss with you
who she'd be inviting?

Matter of fact, she did.

And of all the names
I saw on the list,

yours wasn't one of them.

Well, now you're
just being hurtful.

Elizabeth, if that's what
you think of me,

you don't even know me.

Nathan, we are talking
about allie.

Well, we're gonna have to wait
to discuss it.

There's been an escape
at granville penitentiary.

The prisoner's been
spotted nearby.

Constable grant.

Save it.

[knocks]

lucas: Yes?

May I come in?

Of course.

Yes.

Welcome.

Wow, this is such a nice office.

Thank you.

I haven't had a chance
to tell you...

I want to tell you that I was
the only one invited

to allie's adoption ceremony.

[phone rings]

um, excuse me.

Hello?

Thank you, florence.

[speaking french]

pardon my french.

That was an art dealer in york.

I'm- I'm trying to buy an
anniversary gift for my parents.

I understand.

Um...

Florence?

Would you mind calling
that number back, please?

Elizabeth, would you care
to join me for dinner tonight?

I would like to continue
this conversation

but I'd like to be able to
give you my full attention.

Of course.

Thank you.

Lucas?

Hmm?

rosemary: How was your ride
this morning?

Unsettling.

I approached nathan
about allie's ceremony

and he told me that originally
allie hadn't even invited me.

And yet you were
the only one there.

We're supposed to talk
about it later.

And good thing.

Things were starting to get
a bit... Heated between us.

I still feel like there's
something he's not telling me.

You may have to take
the bull by the horns.

Just ask him, directly.

I suppose so.

[chuckles]

how's your job search going?

Oh, goodness, elizabeth.

I might just stay
at the dress shop

for as long as it remains open.

You don't really mean that,
do you?

No.

Maybe.

I don't know.

Rosemary, you've been
so restless lately.

I really have been, haven't I?

Clara and I were going through
dottie's old inventor records

and I came across an entry
I made on my very first day

at the dress shop.

I must have been so excited.

I used three exclamation marks.

[chuckles]

but to be that excited
about what I do.

I need to find that again.

Cookie?

Sure.

Ned: I really- florence,
I just...

I feel like a child.

Shush.

This is your first day back
after surgery.

You need to rest.

Be glad I agreed to letting you
come in.

Oh, good.

I have something for you.

A babysitter?

No, a substitute.

Robert shall deliver the mail
while you convalesce.

"neither snow nor rain nor heat
nor gloom of the nights,

"days... Uh, stays...

"this courier from
the swift completion

"of his appointed rounds."

ah.

Mmmhmm.

I'm having trouble seeing it.

I'm- I'm having trouble seeing
it, too.

What's this area supposed to be?

Well, this is
the operating room.

And this?

Recovery room.

Why isn't this
the recovery room?

And this the operating room?

Ladies, if you will please
excuse me,

I'm gonna head over to lee's
office and place an order.

And all this because
we almost lost ned?

Well, carson's dreaming up ways
of raising money

to build a hospital the size
of union city's.

And he won't reconsider the
surgery fellowship in baltimore?

No. He's still refusing.

And, you know, it is such
a wonderful offer.

In order to get him to go

I might need to move
to baltimore with him.

Oh.

I didn't order that.

Well, eat it anyway.

Oh.

Something on your mind, bill?

Remember I told you about
having to turn in my serge,

since I don't wear it anymore?

Yeah. I remember.

Headquarters wouldn't
even let your horse

keep its saddle blanket,
right?

Anyway, I'm having trouble
letting go of it all.

It all seems so-

undignified? Unappreciative?

Yes!

Well, listen, bill.

I was raised not to talk
with my mouth full,

so if you'd like to tell me
about it

I'm happy to listen.

Hello?

Hello.

We still have not taken
in the sights.

What sights would those be?

Oh, uh... Well...

Miss rachel and I had discussed
the idea

that perhaps you and mr. Coulter
could show us around town.

Well, I think that
could be arranged.

Why don't you just let me
and mr. Coulter know

when might be a convenient time?

Yes, ma'am.
Thank you.

Mmmhmm.

Uh... Miss rachel.

Have a wonderful day.

[sighs]

rachel.

I know you came
to live with us

to experience
the kind of freedom

your parents weren't
allowing you back home,

but your uncle and I are
not about to throw you

to a wolf just because-

[door closes]

rachel?

Rachel?

Open this door right now.

[clanging]

[steam hissing]

[clanging]

joseph?

You started on
the lantern hooks.

I like to keep my honey-do list
as short as possible.

[chuckles]

thank you.

-We're headed into town.
-Mm.

I thought you might take
a break and join us.

Yeah, I will. I will.

Just give me a moment to change.

Are you coming with us?

I am.

Do up your buckle, son.

Elizabeth.

You saved me a trip
to see you.

I admired this horse
the first time I saw it.

Sergeant belonged to my husband.

I hadn't been here
very long

before I heard mention
of jack thornton.

How did you lose him?

Uh, in a training accident
at fort clay

a little over three years ago.

That must still be fresh
for you.

You said you were coming
to see me?

Yes.

You said to leave angela be
and sure enough,

last night she came asking
to try reading again.

[laughs]
oh!

Mrs. Thornton?

Yes!

Did you bring
the braille book?

When can you start
teaching me?

I didn't, but we could
start today,

as soon as you like.

Why don't we meet you at school?

You two can get together
while we're in town.

Is that alright?

That sounds perfect.

I'm so happy.

Oh!

All I'm saying is
when I made the offe

for you to come stay
with me-

you want me out
of your house

only you're too nice a guy
to say so.

No, that's not at all
what I'm saying.

Look- yes, you snore.

You make a mess
wherever you sit down,

I don't know how clara
puts up with you.

But it's just time
for you to go home

and patch things up
with your wife.

Wow.

And here I thought
you were a nice guy.

Wha?

Oh?

Surprise.

[laughs]

you better not let my aunt
catch you.

I'm not afraid of her.

She's gone just across the
street to speak with my uncle.

I'm not afraid of him,
either.

I know.

I saw you steal his pocket watch
the day you arrived.

And you didn't say anything?

No, not to him.

Not to anyone.

Should I have?

You little sneak.

[laughs]

you're not afraid of me?

Nope.

Should I be?

I'm as gentle as a lamb.

Oh, I hardly believe that,
christopher hughes.

[laughs]

it's the truth.

[chatter outside]

I'll come by your house
tonight.

Listen for a sound
by your window.

-Ok.
-Ok.

[laughs]

[door closes]

[sighs]

christopher said you wanted
to talk?

Yeah.

He seems like a nice boy.

Well, I can't take any credit
for that.

His mother raised him
along with her husband.

Oh.

In hamilton?

That's right.

Look, bill, if you wanna chat
why don't we just get a coffee?

When did your son arrive
in town?

Oh.

Bill: Nathan located a stolen
car outside of town.

Henry: Obviously you're looking
for someone to blame.

Bill: Just answer the question,
henry!

When did your son
come to town?

Hey! What's going on
in here?

Well, he's on about
some stolen car!

The abandoned one
just outside of town?

Yeah, and the two of you figure
that christopher

had something to do with it,
is that it?

Well, it turned up
when he arrived,

but no one's accusing him.

No, not yet.

I'll continue to search that car
until I find out who stole it.

[door slams]

look, bill, I know
you and henry

have had your disputes
in the past

but this cannot be guilt
by association.

Yeah, I know.

You know, some day when I am
asked to turn in my uniform

I might feel differently
about what you're going through.

But bill, prolonging
this process,

it can't be helping.

You catch the escapee
from granville?

Yeah.

Halfway to buxton.

Well done.

I'm so excited you decided
to try reading again.

What made you change your mind?

The piano.

The piano made you wanna read?

When I play I can go anywhere
I want.

In my imagination, I mean.

But sometimes that gets lonely.

And being able to read,

I'm hoping I won't feel
so alone.

Angela canfield,

I am so excited for you
to learn how to read braille

because you will rarely
ever feel lonely again.

Now then, shall we try again?

Mmmhmm.

Let's move your hands
to the top of the page.

And remember, you're going to
use your left hand as a marker.

Mmmhmm.

Can you feel the first letter

with the pad of your
right finger?

How's she doing?

She and elizabeth
are doing wonderfully.

You see this?

What?

The "for sale" sign's gone.

Someone bought
the filling station.

Minnie, I tried telling you

we should have snapped this
place up when we had the chance.

Take it as a sign, joseph.

You know what I'm trying
to say here.

You have plans, you don't want
to pastor a church.

Well, maybe I won't be asked
after all.

My goodness, joseph.

Sometimes it's like having
another child.

I see carson's hospital
has arrived.

So that's what it's for.

When he came to place the order

I wondered, I just didn't get
a chance to ask.

He's planning on expanding
the infirmary.

Ah, I see.

Good day, jesse.

Yeah, what's so good about it?

Apparently, we're delivering
a free bundle of discontentment

with every load of lumber today.

I have a front row seat
to some of that myself

with faith and carson.

Oh.

Well, you can uh, add bill avery
to that list, too.

You know, he told me
at the cafe

that he has to return
his uniform.

His uniform?

Mmmhmm.

I don't think any of us have
ever seen him in uniform.

Well, I know I never have.

But apparently it carries
a lot of meaning.

Oh.

Anyway, I'm gonna leave you
to solve everybody's problems.

I gotta get back to the office.
Bye, molly.

Bye.

So, did you catch the man
who escaped?

Yes, yes, we caught him,

but I'd like to go back
to discussing

what happened at your
adoption ceremony.

Again?

Nathan: Yes, again. I think
that you're confused.

Florence: Constable!

Just a minute, florence.

Nathan, I just got
an urgent message.

Ned.

The prisoner you captured,
escaped.

What? Do they not lock the cell
doors in granville prison?

Go get him, nathan!

Shhh!

Let's not get overexcited.

I have to go.

I'm sorry, allie, but we'll have
to talk about this later.

What lovely timing.
We just finished our lesson.

I can read seven letters.

Good for you, baby girl.

She has a remarkable memory.

But I was getting tired,
and hungry

so we stopped for the day.

Well, then that's even
better timing.

We're on our way to the cafe.

Oh!

Thank you, mrs. Thornton.

Thank you, angela.

I'm having fun learning, too.

[chuckles]

well, away we go.

Thank you.

-Bye.
-Bye.

[exhales]

if that is the way you look
over one happy student

you must have been just beaming
at this year's graduation.

Elizabeth, this isn't
your doing.

It just breaks my heart
to see allie like this.

Nathan just needs
to explain to her.

I'm not so sure it's a matter
of a simple explanation.

I was worried this might happen
if he and I tried to be friends.

I can accept a friendship
between you and nathan.

But I don't think he'll ever
settle for only your friendship.

I'd prefer it if we could
discuss this at dinner.

Right now I'd like to try
to comfort a sad little girl.

Hey, somebody!

I need some help here!

Please, hey!

Christopher: I don't know
what's going on.

Carson: What happened?

I don't know.

Henry?

I'm fine.

You're not fine.

Yeah, yeah.

He was having trouble breathing,
he got dizzy.

Faith?

Let's give dr. Shepherd
a moment.

-Molly, bp cuff.
-Christopher.

What is that?
What're you doing to him?

Your father has very
high blood pressure

that we've been trying to get
under control for some time now.

Is it serious?

What's going on?
Is it henry?

I don't know.

I certainly hope not.

Ladies.

Do you know what's happening?

I have no idea.

-Hey!
-Wait.

You hired him back

knowing all along he shouldn't
be working?!

Come on, christopher.

Come on, come on.

If anything happens to my father

you're the one I'll blame,
bouchard.

Bill: Come on.

No, no, no, no, no.

He has not left
since he got back.

[knocking]

henry's going to be fine.

I had no idea the seriousness
of his condition.

I knew last year
that carson was worried

but henry told me it was nothing
to be concerned about.

How is christopher?

Carson and faith explained
to him what happened

and what needs to be done.

Do you still wanna have dinner?

For once, if you'll excuse me?

Do you care to join me?

I could stay and we could...
Talk for a while.

That sounds nice.

Cozy.

[laughs]

I think it's very kind of you
to sit here with me.

But I think perhaps
you should go.

I want to be patient.

I want for you to be
completely comfortable.

Thank you for your patience.

Thank you for coming.

[exhales]

henry: Honestly, though,
I do appreciate

you staying after me
about my health.

I can't say that it was always
my pleasure.

[laughs]

but tell me, henry,
what's changed?

Well, I'm still breathing,
for one thing.

When my son, uh, saw me have
my spell in the office...

When he uh, when he was scared,
he said to me "dad, what is it?"

I don't understand.

When I collapsed in the
mercantile

I had just received a letter
that I had sent to him

asking for his forgiveness

for my not being present
in his life.

And he had returned it opened,

which um, which said to me
that I- I didn't matter to him.

Christopher's never called me
anything but henry.

But today when he was afraid
that he might lose me...

Well, today I found out
that my son cares for me.

Well, honestly, I mean,

I just don't know if there's
anything better than that.

[laughs]

[clink]

you said you'd drop by.

Go home, rachel.

I don't want you getting in
dutch with your aunt and uncle.

They know I went looking
for you.

I even asked permission.

Well, aren't you
the goody-goody?

So why didn't you drop by?

Maybe I didn't wanna leave.

What're you doing?

I'm supposed to be in there
having dinner with my father

but instead I'm sitting
out here.

Maybe you didn't leave

so that you'd still be close
to your dad.

Then why aren't I
in the cafe?

Because then you'd be
too close.

And then maybe
you'd be afraid.

I'm not afraid.

The closer we get to someone,
people we like, anyway,

the more we can't stand
the idea of losing them.

And the only way to stop that
from happening is

to keep our distance.

Like telling me to leave
you alone.

Then what's the solution?

Take a chance.

Like when you stole
uncle lee's watch.

Is that my handkerchief?

It still has your lipstick
on it.

I know.

Stop by the store tomorrow?

Nothing could keep me away.

[exhales]

do you think I made
the right decision,

letting rachel walk into town?

She was truthful with you

about wanting to check in
on christopher.

She is very worried
about him.

She is almost 18.

True.

[knocking]

-hi, lee.
-Hello.

Elizabeth.

Sweetheart, rachel
just got home.

Oh, what a relief.

You may be able to rest easy
at least for a few more weeks.

Right before she walked in
my sister called

and susannah has changed
her mind.

She now wants rachel
to come back to bellingham

to celebrate her birthday
after all.

Oh.

I guess that's good.

Oh, it's good.

Parenting teenagers isn't easy.

It's so hard.

If I can learn to knit,
you can learn to parent.

Good morning, mrs. Coulter.
I have your mail.

Well, thank you, kind sir.

Are you ok?

Clara, where is he?

I'm leaving soon.

Oh, ladies.
You'll like this.

It's a letter
from dottie ramsey.

"I want to let you know

"that I have decided not
to sell the dress shop

"there in hope valley,

"at least not for
the foreseeable future."

well, I thought you two
would be thrilled.

I am, rosemary.

Thank you.

I have to get back
to the cafe.

See you soon?

Mmmhmm.

Safe travels.

-Bye.
-Bye.

I'm afraid that, once I get back
to bellingham,

mother won't allow me
to return.

You leave that worry to me,
alright?

You know I've always said

a woman should dress
to please herself,

but perhaps we should try not
to displease your mother.

I mean, if it's alright
with you.

Faith: How are you this morning?

Feeling a little foolish
having bought all that lumber.

You've changed your mind
about expanding the infirmary.

I have, in fact, changed my mind
about a lot of things.

That's funny.

I have, too.

The other day I mentioned
to molly

I might need to join you
in baltimore.

You did?

But these past few weeks
with everything that's gone on-

saving ned's life
and helping henry?

It's really shown me something.

Look at what we did
without a modern hospital

or any upgraded
medical equipment.

I know.

Imagine what we're gonna be able
to do in baltimore.

Baltimore?

Yeah.

I was going to say that I'm now
more convinced than ever

that this is where I belong.

Where I'm needed.

Where I can do the most good.

I thought you were on the same
page now, too.

You- you say you wanna do
the most good here

but as this town grows

this infirmary will become
a relic of the past.

Outdated and antiquated.

Don't you see that?

No.

I don't.

You might be right but
until that time comes,

this is where I'm staying.

I'm gonna ah... Gonna go get
that lumber taken care of.

Oh, hey.
Good to see ya.

I wanted to apologize
for the other day.

You telling me to go home,

you were just being
a good friend.

Fellas.

-Lucas.
-Hey.

Why not head up to the office,

spend some time
with your father?

Why? Is there a problem?

No.

I just think he could use
the company.

Well, if I'm up there who's
gonna do the work down here?

Huh? You?

[scoffs]

there are other men.

I've never dug a trench,

and judging from what my father
said the other day

we're gonna need one
for drainage.

Christopher.

Leave, lucas!

Not unless you wanna get
down here in the mud with me.

But you already are, right?

Ok.

That seems like an angry
young man.

He has every right to be.

Oh yeah? How's that?

I don't owe you
any explanations.

No, lucas, you don't owe me
an explanation.

I just wanna let you know

that I haven't given up
on elizabeth just yet.

You can do whatever you want.

But you better make good sure

that you have elizabeth's and
allie's best interests at heart.

Not your own.

Lucas-

save it.

[sighs]

where have you been?

Oh, just taking care of a few
last minute odds and ends

before I leave.

You do remember I'll be out
of town the next few days?

Yes.

Excuse me.

Oh, hi. I didn't know
you were here.

With the whole family.

That cooper isn't just cute,
he can eat.

Oh, and he loves
your blueberry scones.

I hope my wife's asking
for the recipe.

The food here is almost
as good as minnie's.

Oh, you enjoy cooking?

I'm most at home
in a kitchen.

Make note of that.

If you're ever looking
for a home away from home,

the company would be wonderful.

It can get lonely.

Oh, that's so sweet.
Thank you.

I'll get that recipe later.

Bye, you two.

Would you like to maybe
sit down and talk?

Yes. I would.

Very much.

Allie: Hello.

Elizabeth: Allie, good morning.

I made you an invitation.

Oh, my goodness!

Another invitation?

Don't worry.

Uncle nathan and I talked about
what happened at judge avery's.

It was wrong that
neither of you knew

that you were the only ones
I had invited.

And I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Allie, are you aware
that I'm seeing mr. Bouchard?

I pretty much knew that even
before uncle nathan told me.

Oh.

I should get going.
Bye.

Bye.

Allie! Allie, wait!

This is beautiful,

and you clearly worked
very hard on it.

But I won't be coming
to dinner tonight.

Laura said she could babysit.

Or if you want you could even
bring little jack.

I'm sorry, allie, no.

Please just try to understand.

Why don't you sit down
and we can talk?

Fine.

Don't come.

I don't care.

Allie, wait!

Please, allie!

[exhales]

hello.

Well, we were right.

She thinks susannah is gonna
make her stay in bellingham.

We'll drive off that bridge
when we get there.

Rachel? Uncle lee is here.

Oh, dottie's decided not to sell
the dress shop.

At least, not for now.

That's terrific!

Mmm.

No? Not terrific?

Well, I had already begun
to leave the place behind

and I was excited
about moving towards...

I don't know what I was
moving towards.

But I was excited.

Yeah.

Aunt rosemary, I pulled
the door closed.

Would you ride with us
to the train station?

Oh, that reminds me,

we better get going
or we're gonna be late.

Lee.

You found your watch.

Yeah, you know, it was
the darnedest thing.

It was under the car seat
the whole time.

Really?

Yeah. Look.

Rosemary: Oh, I had forgotten
about this engraving.

"counting the minutes
until we're together again."

are you ready?

We'll lock up
for an hour or so?

That's what I thought.

It is your decision.

It's your mercantile
and your mail service.

Well, it hasn't felt that way.

I realize that,

but by running this place
and bringing robert in

I was just trying to help.

I- I never meant to make you
feel like you could be replaced.

No one could replace you,
ned yost,

not in this town.

And not with me.

Oh.

Just thought I'd stop by
and wish you a good trip.

Oh, thanks.

Can't say I'm looking forward to
riding all the way to hamilton.

Yeah, just to turn in
your uniform.

How do you know?

Word gets around.

Oh.

Yeah, if headquarters
wants this uniform so badly

I should have told them
to come and get it.

It seems that rules
and regulations

can strip a man of his pride.

You can say that again.

It was a proud day

when I put this uniform on
for the first time.

Of course, back then

it didn't have the epaulettes
and rank pips.

You must have felt
10 feet tall.

Ten years and three months.

Try it on, for old time's sake.

Oh, it doesn't fit, molly.

You can be a hard man to read.

But you're worth it,
cover to cover.

We know that turning in
your uniform means

a great deal to you,

so it means a great deal
to your friends.

Because after all,
you should know,

the uniform doesn't
make the man.

As I suggested, try it on.
It will fit, I promise.

And do us all a favour.

Put on a good show.

Rachel?

[knocking]

rachel!

[crowd chattering]

may I have a moment?

I need to speak with allie.

She's at home.

And honestly,
right now she's afraid

to speak to you
without me there.

Afraid?

[trumpets playing]

can we talk about this after?

No, we can't!

♪

I was afraid this
