(INAUDIBLE APPLAUSE)

WOMAN: No matter what happens, I'm always proud of you.

GIRL: Thanks, Mom.

(GIRLS GIGGLING)

- That's adorable. - That was really nice.

ERICA: That's so cute.

COACH: With only five spots this year,

I just wanna remind all of you younger girls,

if you don't make it this year, don't lose heart.

Keep trying, and come back again.

I wanna bring up Mary Higgins, your team varsity captain!

And now, your varsity squad, in no particular order.

Erica Murphy!

Amy Tsai!

Tammy Tilson!

And last, but not least,

Lily Davidson!

Thank you.

COACH: Congratulations, girls, we have a lot of work to do this summer.

And congratulations to all of you.

Keep working hard, and we will see you again next year.

Thank you so much.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- MARY: Lily! - Hey.

- Thank you so much for everything. - See, what did I tell you?

I can't believe it, but it wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for you.

What are you talking about?

Depending on how the summer goes,

I could be looking at my new co-captain!

- You were so great. - Thanks.

WILLIAM: Yeah, you know what? I literally just walked in.

Let me get that right to you.

And, uh...

Yeah, no, I'll do it right now.

- Thanks, Dad. - Absolutely.

Yep. Okay. I'm on it, I'm on it now.

I need to check one thing, all right?

BOSS: (ON PHONE) This is a huge part of next year for us,

so we gotta close this deal down.

You know what? Just give me a minute, okay?

I'm so sorry. Five minutes, and I'm all yours.

All right, listen, I can find someone else if you aren't up for it.

Just still looking. Give me another second.

Hey! Wait, wait, wait!

How'd it go today? I forgot to ask.

I made the squad.

- Are you serious? - Yes!

- That's amazing! - I was so nervous!

- That's awesome! - Thanks, Dad.

Oh, my gosh, that's amazing!

I mean, I was so nervous.

I'm still the only person who can't do a back handspring...

It doesn't matter. You did it! It's fantastic, you made it!

- Thank you. - William? Hey, man, you there?

Yes, right here.

Will, I really need boots on the ground floor for this one, man.

- Take it. You can take it. - Okay.

I'm gonna finish this up, then I'm gonna come inside

- and we're gonna celebrate, okay? - Okay.

- I love you. - All right, I love you, too.

All right. Hey.

Okay. (SIGHS)

(LILY HUMMING)

(SIGHS) Great.

- Dad! - Sorry.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

- Hey there. - Hi.

- Can I come in? - Yes.

I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you today.

- Are you upset? - Why would I be upset?

Dad never knows these kinda things.

I mean, it would have been nice.

I knew it.

But seriously, Dad, it's okay. I know you're totally swamped with work.

I'm excited for summer to be here,

and to be with my friends, and go to camp.

And about the summer...

No, no, no. No, you're going to cheer camp, rest assured.

No questions about that.

It's just that it turns out that...

That my work is gonna keep me out of town

a little more than I thought it was going to.

That's fine. I can manage.

Lily, you're 17.

Yeah, which is technically a young adult.

I think you meant to say, "Still a child."

A child who's going away to college in a year.

What are you trying to say, Dad?

You wanna get me a babysitter, or something?

I actually already did.

- No, you didn't. - Honey, listen.

- This is gonna be great. - Please tell me this isn't happening.

Look, at this point it is very important to have a strong female persona,

and who better to take care of you...

Please tell me you didn't call...

- Aunt Glo? - Aunt Glo, yes.

Are you kidding me? My life's ruined!

- Oh, come on. It's not gonna be that bad. - My summer is ruined, Dad.

Hey, apparently she has a ranch now.

Doomed. I'm doomed.

All right, maybe it'll be a little bad.

But it's only gonna be five weeks.

It's like a Band-Aid, you know?

Just rip it off, get it over with.

Okay, for the record, Dad,

a Band-Aid lasts three days, maybe a week.

- Think about it like an adventure. - An adventure?

An adventure in the middle of nowhere?

I'm protesting. This is me protesting.

Protesting right now.

Oh!

So, this is...

This is what protesting looks like.

- Mmm-hmm. - Hmm?

Got it. (CLEARS THROAT)

Do you know how much further this is?

It feels really far out.

Mmm-hmm. The nearest gas station was five miles back.

I pay attention now.

Last week when I ran outta gas, we had no water.

No cell service. Phew.

The customers were not happy.

- Do you ever get cell service? - Not really.

But don't worry, I got plenty of gas today.

Oh!

Now, there's something you don't see every day, huh?

I love America.

(VOCALIZING)

(MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING)

- Lily! - Aunt Glo!

- Please give me five stars. - I will.

I'm so glad you're here!

It's so good to see you.

Look at you. You're all grown up!

I can't believe the last time I saw you was right before my Tanzania trip.

Wait. Maybe it was the Philippines. No, it was Thailand.

Whatever. Come on in, everyone can't wait to meet you.

"Everyone"?

- Skip! Lily's here. - Hi, Lily.

Hi, Skip.

He knows my name?

Skip, don't you dare tell her we've been practicing.

(GLO CHUCKLES)

Isn't he cute? He likes you already. Yes, you do.

And this is Henry. Or Henrietta.

We're not really sure which one,

so we're just goin' with the one she responds to.

(GLO GASPS)

She's so big!

- LILY: Bunnies wear harnesses? - GLO: Oh, yeah.

And Henrietta's favorite color is pink, isn't it, Henrietta?

Oh, that reminds me. You're actually ready for your afternoon walk.

(SKIP SQUAWKS)

You two, don't worry.

She is gonna be here all summer long. (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

- Okay. - They love you already.

(SIGHS)

It's perfect, Aunt Glo. I love it.

- You do? - Yes.

I'm so glad.

I really had you in mind when I designed it,

and I couldn't wait for you to see it.

That was your mom's first pony.

She got him on her 10th birthday.

The day she fell in love with riding.

That day changed her life forever.

She was so happy.

- Thank you, Aunt Glo. - You're welcome.

I guess I'll put this over here.

Aunt Glo, who is that?

Oh, yeah, that's Sam. He stays in the guest bungalow.

My only hired help.

And he ain't too bad to look at, is he?

Honey, I know you didn't think you were gonna be spending

your summer here.

But I promise we'll make it fun, okay?

- I know. It'll be fun. - It will be.

All right, I'm gonna run into town to overnight something,

and if you can, please walk Henrietta.

- She would love it. - (SOFTLY) Okay.

Come on, Henrietta.

Sometimes, we have to go places and do things we don't wanna do.

(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Come on.

Okay, let's go.

Well, well, well.

Look who's on bunny duty already.

Please tell me I don't have to do this every day.

Three times a day, if you're lucky.

Just be glad you're not on stall duty.

Lily, right?

Sam Carver.

Nice to meet you, Cowboy Sam.

Your Aunt Glo has been talking about her Lily since day one.

- Sorry about that. - Doesn't bother me none.

I'm just glad to see the mysterious Lily

finally came to pay her Aunt Glo a visit.

You always do your chores on horseback, or just the sprinkler ones?

Okay, smarty.

I heard through the grapevine that I'm gonna get an assistant this summer.

And if she doesn't watch out, she'll be doin' it on foot.

Not knowin' how to ride and all.

Who says I don't know how to ride?

Okay.

Call you hired.

That just about does it.

(ENGINE REVVING)

Dang kids.

I told them they could ride here if they remembered to shut the gate.

(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Let me guess. You must be a cheerleader.

Why you gotta mess with her like that, Ava?

I apologize about my friend. She thinks she's cool.

Yeah, ever since her parents got her the new DS 250

and she can get to the top the fastest,

- she uh, thinks she owns it. - That's okay.

I could see how wearin' all that black attire

would make someone feel really good about themselves.

Oh, Snap!

You ride, cheerleader?

- She means a horse. - Oh, yeah. I ride.

And my name's Lily. Lily Davidson.

You should come ride with us, then.

Yeah, we come every Friday.

- We promise to be nice. - More importantly, we promise to be fun.

Okay, sure. Why not?

All right, we're going up to Angel's Peak,

so, you wanna meet here like at 1:00?

Cool.

- See you then. - Later.

What'd they say?

Nothing, they just asked if I wanted to go riding with them on Friday.

Did you tell 'em to shut the gate?

No.

(SAM CHUCKLES)

Okay.

Well, let's get you squared away on horseback

if you're gonna be pow-wowing with them all summer.

Okay.

Okay, it's time to take your pick.

You got this one. Great temperament.

She's really good. Bomb-proof.

Good to ride, won't run off with you.

Or we got this guy here.

He's good to ride as well, but a little stubborn at times.

Nothing a girl like you can't handle.

(LOUD BANG)

What about him?

Pistachio?

Yeah.

No, you don't want Pistachio.

Why not?

He's a little rough around the edges.

Your Aunt Glo wants me to tune him up a little bit,

but I just haven't had the time.

Pistachio. I choose Pistachio.

Nah, you don't want him.

Come on. Look at him.

It's not his fault he's so antsy.

You said it yourself, you don't have time for him.

Fine.

Looks like your lucky week, buddy.

(PISTACHIO SNORTS)

Sorry, guys. Pistachio just wanted it more.

Supper's almost ready.

- Sam, do you wanna stay for dinner? - I would, but I'm beat.

- Thank you, though. - You're welcome.

Aunt Glo, if you don't mind, I'm gonna call my dad.

Yeah, of course. You know what, use the landline. It's right down there.

WILLIAM: (ON PHONE) Lily, how's everything goin'?

Hey, Dad. Not too bad, actually.

Well, that's good to hear.

Does that mean you're not upset with me anymore?

Oh, I'm still upset.

Just not as much.

I'll be right there.

Um, so, you see, I told you Aunt Glo is taking good care of you, right?

William, gotta go.

I'm coming.

Look, I'm actually on my way to the airport, honey.

I gotta get on a flight, and I wanna call you when we can talk more.

So can I call you after I land?

- Sure, Dad. - I love you.

- Love you. - Okay, bye.

I introduced her to all the horses, so...

That's nice. Who did she respond to?

- Pistachio. - Your favorite.

- (SCOFFS) - (CHUCKLES)

Okay, in the morning. See you bright and early.

Bright and early, Cowboy Sam.

- Have a good night! - Good night.

This, my dear, is your appetizer.

Well?

Special.

That's what I like to call "special," Aunt Glo.

Okay, I'll take that. It's nice, "special" is good.

- Look who's here! - Oh! Henrietta.

We didn't forget about you!

Does it need more ginger?

Or another carrot?

You know, this might be the first home-cooked meal

I've had in a really long time.

Honey, your dad tries.

- He really does. - I know. I know he does.

It's just sometimes I wonder what would it be like

if my mom were here, you know?

Like what kind of stuff she would make.

Me too.

Hey, you know what?

Why don't I teach you how to make her favorite recipes?

Like this one. She loved this dish.

Really?

We used to cook together all the time.

We made all kinds of things, and she loved to bake.

Cookies were her favorite.

I don't know, Aunt Glo. I'm not really much of a cook.

Well, then even more of a reason for me to teach you.

Besides, we have Sam,

and anything that's not edible, he'll get the leftovers.

Okay.

(PIANO MUSIC PLAYS)

- Morning. - Morning.

Lily!

Sam's here.

Shoot. Shoot, shoot, shoot!

Shoot.

Oh, boy. Wonder what she's doing up there.

Girls.

I'll be down in a second!

What are we waiting for?

I was wondering when you were gonna show up.

Have fun!

I got some fences to mend this morning.

- You wanna help me? - Sure.

Okay, hop on.

I thought you knew how to ride.

I got it. I finally got it.

Left foot.

- All right, can you give me a boost? - Yeah.

One, two, three.

- Okay. - Phew. Okay.

Now, don't go anywhere until I tell you, okay?

All right. All right.

- Where you going? - I wasn't going anywhere.

I just...

Whoa! Whoa!

Hold him up. Pull him back!

(HORSE WHINNIES)

- Gather your reins! - Help!

(LILY SCREAMS)

I'm okay!

GLO: Lily!

- What happened? - I'm fine.

He went to get the horse.

Did you know that he...

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

(CRYING)

Should've known better.

I don't understand. She's ridden before.

You can never trust 'em when they say they can ride.

That usually means

they can't ride a stick horse through water.

Well, she's had lessons.

Let me guess. Pony camp?

Mr. P here took off with her before she could even gather her reins.

Yeah, you heard me. You know what you did.

Pistachio, what do you think you're doing?

Don't you know who she is?

(WHISPERS) Do you know who she is?

Come here, honey.

I'm not a rider.

It's okay.

I'm nothing like her.

Nothing like her, Aunt Glo.

Honey.

You are exactly like her.

You are.

You have her spunk.

You look like her. Her love of life.

You are like her in every way.

And you don't have to...

You don't have to love riding to know your mom.

But that's who she was.

That's who she was.

That's what she did every day of her life.

You don't have to.

It's okay.

What do we do, guys?

There's no way that horse is making it up this hill.

(SIGHS) I don't know.

(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYS)

Come on, girl. You can do it.

Come on, you little thing.

I say we head back down.

Just kidding, you're not little. You're mighty and the opposite of big.

You guys see that? That's the fastest she's moved all day.

I call that a success.

We made it.

This is the top?

AVA: Yeah.

AVA: Shortest ride ever. (CHUCKLES)

MAX: We're going to tackle this another day, Lily.

- Is it something I did? - No, no, no, no!

- We're all just really hangry. - Oh!

Okay. Me too.

Come on.

Managed to get that pony of yours squared off?

Funny.

You would've swore she was staying in a five-star hotel

the way she bolted past me into her stall.

I mean, she almost ran me over.

Well, I mean, if I had to guess,

she does two, maybe three trail rides a year.

LILY: No joke.

Thanks for coming out today.

It's not often we see any new faces around here.

It's beautiful, huh?

Yeah, for a bunch of country bumpkins with no cell service,

you sure know how to make the mundane eventful.

Hey. I actually have two bars out here.

Yeah, and excuse me, "country bumpkins"?

I'll have you know, cheerleader, that I've been to almost every

major city in the US.

Probably more than the three of you, combined.

See, Ava comes from a long line of riders,

and let's just say she's very proud of the fact.

I guess I could say that, too.

The part about coming from a long line of riders.

Yeah, I heard, um...

Your... Your mom rode?

Mmm-hmm.

Apparently, my mom was, like, extremely talented.

Or so they tell me. I don't really remember.

I was like two years old when it happened.

I'm sorry.

It is what it is.

Hey, you two! Come sit with us.

(AVA CLEARS THROAT)

Hey, you should try this. It's my family recipe.

Okay, what is it?

Mmm. What's in this?

I think my aunt would really like this recipe.

What?

Why are you guys laughing?

No, you didn't.

No, you didn't.

- You don't like it? - No, you didn't!

You fed me horse grain?

I told you, it's my family's secret recipe!

- MAX: You can eat it, don't worry. - AVA: Yeah, it's fine!

This is part of my everyday diet.

Ew!

Ava, you are so bad.

- It's funny, right? - It was funny.

It wasn't that funny.

Let's not pick on the new girl

every single chance we get, okay?

Let's, like, do it every other chance.

Ha-ha!

You guys better watch your back.

- Oh, no! Oh, no! - She's gonna get you.

- Oh! - I'm scared.

I'm gonna get you guys.

- She's coming for us. - I think she's serious.

LILY: Yeah, I am.

- Thanks for the ride. - Yeah.

Um, by the way, we go every week.

So don't let today or Ava deter you from coming back.

We like you.

I'll think about it.

Although...

You might wanna think about getting a faster horse.

Who was that?

Just my lovely neighbor, Chuck Fromer.

He thinks he's the boss of me and everyone else in the valley.

He really is annoying.

What does he want?

Well, he thinks he controls the easement along the road,

but I keep telling him my sales documents say that it's mine.

But whatever.

We don't need to worry about old grumpy Chuck.

I want to hear about your day. How was it?

- I had fun. - Well, good!

(MUSIC PLAYING ON EARPHONE)

(PHONE BEEPS)

- Hey! - What's up, girl?

- We miss you! - Hi.

We're hanging out at the lake today.

Amy's dad got a new boat.

Oh, fun.

MARY: What are you up to?

Oh, you know, just hanging out by the pool.

- Let's see. - Yeah, we wanna see.

Okay.

Girl!

That looks kind of desolate.

Yikes!

MARY: Well, it's not that bad, right, Lily?

Hold on, guys.

I wanna show you guys something.

Is that a bunny? Look at his nose!

I want a bunny!

- Isn't she cute? - She's so cute.

I miss you guys. Have fun for me.

What's that, Lily?

I can't wait for camp.

You're cutting out. I didn't quite hear you.

- I said, I can't wait for camp. - Hello?

(CALL DISCONNECTS)

Lost them.

Good girl. Want a snack?

What kinda snack are you in the mood for, Henrietta?

Ice cream sandwich?

Don't tell on me.

I knew we had a lot in common.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING)

Hey, there.

I know, I know.

I came to apologize.

The incident the other day wasn't entirely your fault.

I told a fib and I'm sorry.

I just figured that I'd be able to hop on and...

(HORSE WHINNIES)

I don't know, be like my mom.

(SOBS) Sorry, P.

Do you forgive me?

Here, brought you something.

There you go.

Now I know this doesn't mean we'll be riding off

into the sunset anytime soon,

but I think a little distance between us could be good.

To be honest with you, Pistachio,

I'm just not much of a rider.

I'll still come down and give you guys treats though, okay?

All you guys.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

So what is this?

We consider this our version of the community barbecue.

- With a catch. - Yeah.

Every year, the valley gets together to raise funds

for the volunteer fire department.

JAMIE: And one of the draws to get folks to come out is

they have our best in riders' race.

MAN: Runners and racers, on your mark!

Come on, Ava!

- MAN: Get set! - Go, Ava!

Go!

Who's that?

Chuck Fromer's grandson.

MAX: He thinks he's a real hotshot.

Pretends to be a cowboy.

How do you pretend to be a cowboy?

By acting like you love living in the countryside

when you actually hate it,

only to impress your grandfather.

To ensure that you inherit his land.

Got it.

So how does this work?

It's called a "Ride and Tie."

JAMIE: This is a short one, though.

It's only five miles.

Yeah, I mean, every race is different,

but usually they're 15 to 20 miles or longer.

Every team has, uh, two runners and a horse.

JAMIE: And one person starts on the horse

while the other follows behind on foot.

Oh, like Ava? She's running?

MAX: Right. So Ava will run up to her horse tied to a tree,

untie the horse,

get on the horse, then start riding.

Yeah. Then she'll ride up to her partner who is up the trail now on foot.

Right. Then they'll switch horses to relieve the one running.

Or they'll just keep going, passing their partner,

and then tie their horse further down the trail.

MAX: Then the runner will reach the horse, hop on...

Repeating the process over and over again.

It sounds like a really intense race.

Yeah, uh, some of the best runners think they can handle it

and then once they get out here, they realize that they can't.

Hi.

Look, the first team's coming around the corner.

(HORSE NEIGHS)

Come on, Ava.

Come on, come on. Oh, man!

Who's her partner? Who are we looking for?

Well, it would have been me,

but I'm already committed to another team.

And ever since Jamie's ankle surgery,

Ava's been looking for a new good partner,

but she hasn't been able to find one.

So she's training for the next big race,

auditioning new partners.

Yeah, but you have to be really in sync

with your horse and your partner.

And my doctor doesn't want me running for a while.

And I decided to sit this one out,

but Ava's fierce

and she never misses a race.

So she's out here trying someone new.

I see.

I hope her partner didn't take a wrong turn on the trail.

What do you mean? That can happen?

(LAUGHS) Oh, yeah.

I've seen people just run directly past their horse,

just to catch up to their partner on foot,

all dehydrated, and dying, and...

Yeah, that's when you know you missed your horse.

So what do you do?

- You run all the way back. - Run all the way back.

Well, thanks for inviting me, guys.

Yeah, of course.

There she is!

(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

You guys see her out there, anywhere?

AVA: She probably made a wrong turn.

You know what, Pistachio?

(HORSE NEIGHS)

I'll be right back.

Hey, kid.

Sam.

Just the cowboy I was looking for.

- You know more than one? - No.

I kind of need your help with something.

Please.

(SIGHS) Okay.

Thank you, Sam.

Horses are whip-smart.

And each one of 'em has their own personality.

But they're animals that can be trained,

and for the most part, they wanna be.

You remember that and you'll be good as gold.

Now, horses like to work, too.

Don't be afraid to make 'em sweat.

(CLICKS TONGUE)

Good boy.

Giddy up! Giddy up!

Good boy.

Oh!

Good boy.

Goal here is to keep him physically fit

and remind him what his cues are, okay?

Okay, it's your turn.

Get behind him.

There you go.

- Good. Good boy. Easy. - That's faster?

Get down low. There you go, drive him.

Good. Good.

Good job. There you go.

Good.

- LILY: Whoa! Whoa! - SAM: Whoa! Whoa!

Good boy.

Good job!

Good boy!

Good boy.

You and him will be tuned up in no time.

Good job.

Okay, you're a messy baker, but that's okay.

(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

SAM: Now, come in front of him right here.

- And I just, like, mold it? - Yeah, but don't be lazy.

Just make it... Yeah.

(KISSING SOUND)

There you go, right there.

Good boy!

(INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC PLAYING)

GLO: Those look good!

- Good job! Your first batch! - Thank you.

Won't be your last here.

SAM: All right.

Don't break your neck.

(INAUDIBLE)

Pull your left rein, left rein.

- SAM: Now, "Whoa." - LILY: Whoa.

SAM: Good boy.

Thanks, Aunt Glo.

Oh, you're welcome.

- You're a really good cook. - Oh, thank you.

- Yeah, thank you, Glo. - You're welcome.

If you guys don't mind, I'm gonna try and call my dad.

Oh, yeah, go ahead.

So, what's the deal with Lily's dad?

Ever since my sister died, he hasn't been the same.

Uses work as a distraction.

I think he's having a really hard time keeping it together, to be honest.

(CELL PHONE BEEPING)

- Right there to... - Okay. Yeah. All right.

Excuse me one second, okay?

- All right. - Okay.

You seeing me yet?

- Dad? - Lily?

Dad!

Hey! How are you?

Listen, I'm at a job site, okay?

- So if I lose you, don't... - Dad.

Yeah?

How's the whole Aunt Glo experiment going?

- Is she keeping you busy? - Yes.

You're never going to believe it,

but I've actually been taking riding lessons,

and today I learned how to...

Dad, can you still see me?

Honey?

- Hello? - Hey...

You're cutting out.

- Lily? - Still see me?

- Hey. - Dad?

- Honey? - William.

- Yeah, hold... Honey? I'm... - We're finishing.

- William, come on. - Okay, all right.

Sorry about that.

Sorry.

(SIGHS)

What did happen to your sister, if you don't mind me asking?

Brain aneurysm.

And she was actually out on a ride.

And Lily was only one.

He answered, but the call dropped.

I think he was headed into a meeting or something.

Oh, honey, he'll call you when he can chat.

I know. I think I'm gonna go to bed, if that's okay.

- Sure. - All right. Good night.

- Good night. See you in the morning. - Good night.

Quite the kid.

She is.

Hope her father knows that.

Oh, he knows.

He does.

I think that's part of the problem.

He feels like he has to provide for her whole future

all in one year, so he works a lot.

But they'll get through it.

Would you like dessert?

I'm full as a tick.

"Full as a tick"? That doesn't seem like you'd be very full.

Aunt Glo?

What are you doing?

Huh?

I mean, I know what you're doing, but, what exactly are you doing?

Exercising my brain.

Well, teaching my brain to relax.

Ever since I started meditating, I have been calmer, healthier,

and more at peace.

Do you wanna try it?

Here, have a seat.

Sit up straight. Good job.

You have good posture. And then do that.

Kind of relax your hands, close your eyes.

And the first thing is just let it go

and relax your body.

Next, you wanna repeat a phrase over and over,

something that's really meaningful to your heart.

Like "Carpe diem"?

Yeah, I guess you could say that.

Or you could try one of my favorites.

Inner stillness is the key to outer strength.

Inner stillness is the key to outer strength.

And that's it? I just keep repeating it over and over?

Yeah, keep repeating it.

It's easier than it sounds.

The key is not to let your mind wander.

So if you do, just take a deep breath

and continue repeating.

LILY: Inner stillness is the key to outer strength.

(MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING)

GLO: The key is not to let your mind wander.

(HORSE NEIGHS)

I don't know how you can do that for so long.

Practice.

Lots and lots of practice.

Well, I see why you live out here in the countryside.

Why is that?

'Cause I could hear things I haven't heard before.

Ah! Yes, it's true.

(CHUCKLES)

Come on, let's get some breakfast. You ready?

Remember, you're in charge, not him.

Just give him his cues and he'll listen to you.

Won't you, buddy?

(HORSE SNORTS)

Yee-haw!

(MOTIVATIONAL MUSIC PLAYING)

So? How was it?

Not good.

Are you kidding me? I'm already wondering when we can go again.

- Good job, boy. - Okay. All right, let's go.

(SOFT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Okay, just do it.

(GRUNTS) Oh, my God.

I think I know what you're doing, but I'm not sure.

I'm like the only person on the squad who can't do one.

What, a back handspring?

Yeah.

Well, let me spot you.

- Are you sure? - Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Come on.

- Don't mind? - No, come on.

- All right. Ready? - Mmm-hmm.

- All right. - Go.

- Okay. - And go!

- There you go! See? - Thank you.

Too bad you're not gonna be there all the time to spot me.

I mean, I'm sure you'll get there.

Have no doubt.

Especially after seeing you ride.

Have you been spying on me?

No.

Maybe.

Accidentally.

Okay.

Actually, I'm here

because I think you can help me with something.

Okay, what?

Not actually for me, it's for someone else.

- Okay. - Yeah.

You know how Ava has been looking for a new partner to ride with?

Yeah.

Well, I think I have an idea.

Okay, first clue. "I fly high, I fly low,

"but there's only one place I really like to go."

Why are we doing this again?

To prove to Ava she's not the only queen bee around here.

Oh, right.

I'm in.

All right. First one back with both cards is the winner.

Riders?

Pistachio, we can do this.

MAX: On your marks.

You and me, boy.

MAX: Get set.

Ride!

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Come on, boy.

There it is!

Whoa.

We got it.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm good. I just...

I hit my head coming in on that branch.

- Ouch. - Yeah.

- Just be lucky it's not a beehive. - Yeah.

Why, are you allergic?

Something like that.

All right, let's get on with it.

Well, if you want, we can do the rest of it together.

What, and miss the opportunity of beating you?

Well, I would rather do that and let you win than go it alone.

Where's the fun in that?

(UPBEAT MUSIC CONTINUES)

Whoa.

Did we win? Did we beat her?

We thought you kind of fell and bonked your head or something.

Very funny, guys.

So you really think she can handle it, huh?

I think she'd make a great partner, especially with Pistachio.

JAMIE: Yeah, not only is Pistachio a gem,

but Lily can probably ride just as fast

or even faster than you, Ava.

Hey, now.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I'll think about it.

(AVA CHUCKLES)

Oh...

Nice.

Nice.

Gotcha!

Both shoes. Okay.

You know you have to ask my permission first, right?

I may not wanna be in a race or be somebody's partner.

It would be kind of fun, though, huh, boy?

To do a Ride and Tie?

(HORSE SNORTS)

LILY: I don't wanna come out. I feel really weird.

Let me see it.

Please?

Oh! You look so beautiful.

I don't know. Do you really think that Ava and Max

are actually gonna wear something like this?

Oh yeah. I mean, you'd be surprised.

Honestly, I think if you don't wear something like that,

you're gonna really feel out of place.

- Really? - You'll see.

I don't know. I feel really weird.

You look so cute.

(SIGHS)

My goodness, you remind me so much of her.

She's so proud of you. You know that?

- Thanks, Aunt Glo. - You're welcome.

Okay, let's go finish getting ready.

I gotta go put on my dress!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

GLO: You look so cute. Hi!

- Evening, Glo. So nice to see you! - It's so good to see you.

My darling. Hi, darling.

Ain't she precious? Precious, precious.

- She's a hugger. - Very nice to meet you.

- Same here. - This is so great!

We have a big turnout.

CALLER: ♪ Well, you bow to your partner

♪ Bow to your partner to join hands

Looking good, Varsity.

- Hi. - Hey.

- Hi! - Well, look at you!

You're really part of the club now.

Thanks, the club that I didn't know existed.

All right. Well, I'm gonna go dance.

- She knows what she wants. - Yeah.

- Glad you came. - Thanks.

I mean, it's a different crowd, it's a little older.

But it's tradition and we like to play along.

To be honest, I didn't know that things like this still existed.

Well...

You wanna dance?

Okay, but I'm warning you now, I do not know how to square dance.

Yeah, I'm sure, 'cause a cheerleader couldn't keep up.

I can't.

Well, Max.

You sure clean up nice.

- Thank you, ma'am. - Well, you're welcome.

You can call me Glo.

Well, have fun dancing.

Guys, come on. Get in here.

- Okay. - All right.

- All right. - Okay.

Okay.

I remember being that young.

Chuck, I told you. I'm not budging.

That easement isn't yours and you know it.

You know, you city folks kill me.

You're all the same.

Move out here to the country and you just think overnight

you just know how everything works.

Hey!

My grandsons wanna meet you.

Okay.

Hi.

We have a proposition for you, Miss...

Beecham. Gloria Beecham.

Nice to meet you.

My two grandsons are pretty keen on one of your horses.

Yeah, that nice chestnut-looking one.

Pistachio? Hmm.

So are you all stalking me and my horses?

Pretty sure you can go to jail for that.

Really?

Jail for what?

Hey.

You boys harassing my friends again?

Not at all.

We are just offering a neighborly opportunity.

With a bet.

Who doesn't like a little bit of opportunity?

It's real simple, Gloria. I mean, we can do this clean

or else I can call my lawyer, and we can do it that way.

Oh. You have a lawyer?

Well, big whoop. So does everyone else I know.

- "Big whoop"? - GLO: Yeah, big whoop.

Well, I'm sorry we couldn't settle this amicably,

but I will be looking forward to all that paperwork.

Just ignore him.

Double or nothing!

Lily! No, don't. Lily!

You heard me.

Well, what exactly are we betting on, sweetheart?

Your two grandsons against Ava and I in our own Ride and Tie race.

And if we win, the easement is hers.

And when we win, the easement's ours, forever.

(DISTORTED) As well as that horse we like.

- And a horse of yours that she likes. - No, Lily...

(IN NORMAL VOICE) Deal.

No, Lily, don't! Lily!

Deal.

Pleasure doing business with you.

What?

We can beat them.

Erm...

Yeah. Yes, we will beat them.

We can beat them.

I wanna ask you, are sure you wanna go with Pistachio?

- I'm game to try your horse. - Yeah. Are you kidding me?

Between you, me and P, we have the ace team I've always wanted.

It seems like you've been training for this your whole life.

He's a natural.

You hear that, P?

You're a natural.

AVA: Pass it through.

- Okay. - Okay?

And this is your horse's head, right?

So, safe.

- Almost. - No?

- Okay. Here. - Okay, okay.

Up over yourself, okay?

Go!

This trail here that you see on the map is this trail right here.

(INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC PLAYING)

- Add the tail. - This?

- Yeah. - Or this?

Hi, buddy!

(HORSE WHINNIES)

So you like kind of like the...

You first.

You got it!

Yes, I know that.

You still have one hand on one side and one hand...

All right, hang on, hang on. Oh, God!

Oh, God, I actually think I'm dying.

Oh, no!

Okay, you gotta stretch.

I don't think doing the splits is part of the competition.

What do you think we do as cheerleaders?

Do you think we just jump up and down, and do dances?

We run. We run every day.

I never got to be a cheerleader or a dancer or any of that.

Would you have wanted to?

Kind of.

Really?

I mean, why couldn't you do it?

You strike me as the type that could do whatever you want to.

Please.

I can't do whatever I want.

I work for everything that I have, before and after school.

And everything that I have is just so I can do more work.

I always thought you didn't like me

'cause you thought you were better than me.

No, I...

I was mean to you because I'm jealous of you.

You get to live near the city.

And go to movies and drive-throughs, and be a cheerleader.

And I bet you never smell like horse manure.

Yeah, and I have a dad who works so much he forgets about me,

and friends who totally forget I exist when I don't have cell service.

Not all your friends.

Thank you, Ava.

Thank you for helping me do all this.

It really means a lot.

I really wanna win this.

I really wanna win this for Aunt Glo.

No problem.

Any chance to beat those Fromer boys, I'm down.

All right, start stretching.

- Okay. - Cheerleader.

I can stretch.

- I can stretch like... - Touch your toes.

That hurts.

(TELEPHONE DIALING)

WILLIAM: (OVER VOICEMAIL) Hey, it's me. I'm not here right now.

Leave a message and I'll get right back to you.

Thanks.

Hey, Dad. It's Lily. Um...

So I have this really big race coming up next week

and I know you're probably not gonna be able to make it,

but I just thought I should at least tell you about it.

And I wanted to say thank you for everything you do for me

and everything you do to keep our house running.

I really appreciate it.

And I really miss you.

Okay. I love you.

Bye.

Pistachio!

Oh, no, boy. What's the matter?

(LILY YELLS) Aunt Glo!

Aunt Glo!

There's something wrong with Pistachio.

- Oh, dear! - He looks really bad.

Okay.

Sam's not here. What are we gonna do?

Well, we're probably gonna have to call the vet.

I'm gonna call him.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

I understand. Thank you. All right, bye-bye.

He said it's not gonna be for a couple of hours.

We can't wait that long.

Well...

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Hello.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

All right, get him up. Whatever you do, keep him moving.

I'll be right there.

Ava's on her way.

She said no matter what, we have to keep him moving.

We can't let him lie down.

All right. All right, good boy. Come on.

Good, you're up.

You're up walking. Come here, you.

Good boy. Come here.

You're able to walk. Good boy! Look at you walking.

Good boy! Yep, you're up walking. Look at you!

(SOFT PIANO MUSIC PLAYING)

AVA: Hey, guys.

- Hi. - Hi.

Hi, buddy.

Gotta check his color.

Gotta listen for some gut sounds.

How long till the vet gets here?

All right, he's gotta have Banamine now. Okay?

Good boy. Good, good... Good boy, good boy.

There you go, very good boy.

Good boy. Hey, hey.

It's all right.

It's all right. Hey.

It's okay, buddy.

Thanks.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

- GLO: Hi. - VETERINARIAN: Hi.

Thank you so much. His breathing is labored and he won't eat.

- How long has he been like this? - Well, about four hours.

It's all we can do for now.

It's best to go inside and get some rest.

All we can do is wait.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(WHISPERS) Hey, it's gonna be okay.

What are the chances that he's not gonna make it?

It's hard to say. It's a really bad case of colic.

Please, Doc, I cannot have her lose anyone else.

If you could do whatever you need to do to save him, please do it.

Give me a call in three hours.

- We should know more by then. - Okay. Thank you.

- I appreciate it. - You're welcome.

I think she's gonna wanna spend the night here.

Yeah.

I'm gonna go grab some blankets.

How you doing?

- I'm tired. - Yeah.

I think I'm gonna go home and try to get some sleep.

You should, too.

I'll try.

No, seriously, thank you for coming.

He wouldn't be doing this good if it weren't for you.

He's gonna be okay. Call me first thing?

I will.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

(HORSE BREATHES HEAVILY)

Please get better.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

He's gonna be okay.

I hope so.

Do you remember when you asked me how he got his name?

Well, I didn't name him.

He had a previous owner before me, a much better one.

When your mom was pregnant with you,

your dad used to call you his little peanut.

Your mom was afraid that nickname would stick,

so she wanted to change it. And she said,

"She's so much more special than a peanut.

"She's a pistachio."

And Pistachio's mom was pregnant the same time your mom was.

And that was Misty.

Misty was her favorite. He was her best friend.

They were together all the time.

I remember seeing them at the barn, under the mists,

cooling off, because they were both pregnant

in the middle of summer.

Pistachio came first.

And your mom, she was right there with Misty, helping her.

And from the time Pistachio was born

to the first time he took his first trot,

your mom helped Misty with him.

And then you were born.

Misty knew how important you were to your mom.

(BABY CRYING)

And your mom knew how important Pistachio was to her.

It's a neat story, huh?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

(SNIFFS)

Please, boy, get better.

Please.

VET: Looks like he pulled it through just fine.

GLO: Yes, he did.

- Every night, in his grain. - Okay, thank you.

Does this mean that he's gonna be okay?

Yeah.

Thank you.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

Hey.

AVA: Hi.

Hi, buddy. Hey.

Yes. Hello.

Hi, you're looking good.

Do you think he's okay to race?

Yeah, I think so.

Once the colic passes, he should be good to go.

You mind telling me what's going on?

Why you've been so worried about something?

Lily didn't bet just the easement, she bet Pistachio.

And he was my sister's.

It took me five years to get this horse back,

and I'm afraid if Pistachio doesn't win, Chuck is not gonna let this go.

And losing Pistachio could just...

Hey.

They're not gonna lose.

(AVA AND LILY CHUCKLE)

- He looks better. - Yeah.

You ready?

- I guess. - Yeah?

Think so.

- Are you ready? - Are you ready?

Jinx.

Hey. Ride him like you stole him.

Okay.

Dad!

Our two teams at the starting line.

(HORSE SNORTS)

Riders and runners, at your mark.

Come on, Lily!

You got this, Ava!

We got this.

Get set!

You got this, Lily!

Go!

- Come on, Lily! - Come on, Pistachio!

JAMIE: You got this!

MAX: Come on, Lily!

(MOTIVATIONAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Where is Gil?

Hi, there.

Hey, boy.

Slow and steady wins the race.

Say that to yourself, sweetheart.

You'll be losing that pretty little horse of yours.

What did you say?

What, your aunt didn't tell you?

Pistachio's the horse we get when we win.

Best be careful what you bet next time.

Ha! Yeah, Giddy up! Giddy up!

LILY: Come on. Come on, boy.

(MOTIVATIONAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Good job, Lily.

Go, Lily!

Good job.

Hey, hey, hey. Take the hilly path.

- We can do that? - Yeah, yeah.

That side, it's easier but it's longer.

That side, it's steeper but it's shorter.

Go, Lily, go!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

We're almost there, P.

All right, brave up.

All right, bud. I think we're in the lead.

Let's go, buddy. All right. You ready? We gotta go.

(BUZZING)

(GASPS)

Oh, no.

Oh, no. Oh, no. All right, bud, we gotta go.

We gotta go, we gotta go.

Lily?

Lily, I need help!

- Are you okay? What happened? - I got stung.

What do you mean? Do you have a pen?

No, no. My mom has it at the finish. I didn't bring it with me.

Okay, don't worry about that. You need to go get help.

What? No. We have to finish. Come on, you can get on.

He's faster with one. You have to go.

- Lily, we'll lose! If it's... - Just go! You're gonna die.

Go!

Pistachio, listen, boy, you've done so good,

but Ava needs you right now, okay?

Go, boy! Go home!

Go home!

(SOBBING)

You should have stayed in the city, little girl.

I see someone.

Something's wrong.

I got stung!

MAX: Hurry! She needs help!

- Mom! - I got you, honey. I got you, honey.

You're gonna be okay.

(HORSE SNORTS)

(HORSE WHINNIES AND SNORTS)

Go, buddy.

Go, Pistachio, go!

Go, Pistachio. Go! Go, get Lily!

(HORSE NEIGHS)

(HORSE GALLOPING)

Pistachio?

(HORSE NEIGHS)

(HORSE NEIGHS)

Pistachio.

You came back.

Come on, buddy, let's go.

Yee-haw.

I see someone.

No, it's the boys.

Did you see 'em stutter step?

It was great.

Wait!

That's her!

- It's Lily! It's Lily! - That's her, right? Yeah?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

- GLO: Come on, Lily! - WILLIAM: You got this, honey!

JAMIE: That's it, Lily!

- Hey, Lily, come on! - Come on, let's go!

ALL: Go, Lily, go!

ALL: Go! Go!

Whoo!

- You got this! - MAX: Come on!

Lily, go!

Go!

(TRIUMPHANT MUSIC PLAYING)

Good job, Lily!

Yeah!

Yeah!

I'll have my lawyer send the paperwork.

And I expect our horse to be delivered by the weekend.

Buddy, you did it.

- You went back... He's like, "Yeah." - Look, he's...

AVA: Yeah.

Good race.

Thanks. You, too.

It's all thanks to your lucky charm.

He's not just a lucky charm. He's Pistachio.

CHUCK: I wanna say something to you girls.

You girls... Tough as nails.

Maybe tougher than my grandsons.

A bet's a bet, you won it fair and square.

But if you ever wanna work on a real ranch, you give me a call.

I knew she was gonna like being up here with you.

- Guys. - Thank you...

You won!

- I can't believe it. - I'm so proud of you.

Love you.

I'm so proud of you, Lil!

Dad, thank you so much for coming.

- Are you kidding me? - I can't believe that you made it.

I wouldn't miss it for anything in the world.

Hey. Heck of a race.

Thanks.

Lily!

- Guys! - Hey!

Yeah. I got a little surprise for you.

I told Mary about the race, she said,

"Oh, the squad's gotta come down." And I said, "Well, I'll drive you guys."

And I thought maybe afterwards, I could drive you all to camp.

I mean, if, you know, you're okay with that.

- What? Really? - Yeah!

- Oh, my God! - Yeah, Lily!

That was awesome.

- Let's go. - All right, I'll see you.

Hey. I'm so proud of you.

I mean, you were just amazing up there.

You reminded me so much of your mother.

- All right? You good? - I'm good.

All happy today, right?

- All happy today. - Nothing but happy today, okay?

Congratulations!

Thank you.

I knew you three would be the perfect team.

Good to know that I was right.

Thanks, Max. Uh... This is my dad.

This is Max.

He is one of Aunt Glo's neighbors.

- Yes. - Nice to officially meet you, sir.

Yes, right.

- We celebrated together. - We did.

Really? That's nice.

All right, I better go make sure Ava goes and sees the doctor.

You know how she can be. Congratulations.

All right.

Come on, Dad. It's nothing.

- He's just my friend. - Right.

He is! He's just a friend. Don't tease me.

Listen, I was talking to your Aunt Glo,

and she said that you can come up here anytime you want.

And you know what, I thought, when I get busy

- and my schedule gets crazy... - Dad, just stop right there.

- I wanna come up all the time. - You do?

Yes, all the time.

You wanna come back all the time.

I knew it. I knew it, you see?

What do you mean, you knew it?

You didn't know I was gonna like it as much as I've liked it.

Just 'cause you're getting older, it doesn't mean I don't know things.

I know things, all right? Come on.

I'm fine.

Ohhh...

Ava! Come here.

- This is Ava. - Hey!

- Hi! - Hi!

So, basically, Ava is my partner in the race

and she also helped me train.

She's a way better rider than I am.

- That's so nice. - It's not true.

She's pro. If you wanna see some good stuff...

And then, Sam. Sam. Come here.

Um, this is my cheer squad.

- Sam is the person... - Hey, girls.

...who actually taught me how to ride.

- Good job! - That's awesome!

But you girls prevailed.

Yes.

Girl power.

TAMMY: Say it with the pom-poms.

Yeah, yeah, give him the pom-poms! Try the pom-poms, do it.

See you later.

- Bye. - Bye, honey.

- Take care, okay? - Bye, guys.

I'll miss you.

See you in four weeks!

Take good care of Pistachio for me.

You bet.

Yo! You ready? Let's do this!

Bye!

Bye, girls! Have fun!

(FAINT SCREAM) Bye! Thanks, Glo, for everything!

Bye!

All right, I'm gonna make you guys some supper.

Perfect.
