Previously, on "Heartland"...

[Lisa] Another robbery?
What is going on?

[Parker] We're gonna laugh
about this someday, Jack.

- What?
- I think I gave you

the width of the panels
instead of the frame.

You've gotta be kiddin' me!

This place is gonna be great.

Yeah, again, thank you, Clint!

You know, he introduced me
to a vary generous donor,

so I've been able to do some upgrades.

His donor decided to back out.

It's a shame that they didn't
have the faith to stand by him.

I was that donor.

Hello, Paula.

Nobody deserves to be bullied like that.

Nobody.

I just got off the phone with my donor.

She's back in.
Is the Center good now?

I think you actually saved it.

about a thousand pictures

of this wild horse.
So beautiful! [snaps pic]

That's the one that I'm

[The Paint nickers, Amy chuckles]

I think he likes us.

[The Paint whinnies, Amy chuckles]

[hooves thud]

Hey. So we just heard on the radio

that there's been another
break-in last night.

No kidding!
How many has that been?

That's five in the past week,

and the girls are starting
to ask questions

and everybody's getting
a little nervous.

Well, I guess we should
have a chat with them,

make sure they know they're safe here.

Yes, that's a good idea,

but also,

I have been looking online
at security systems,

and I am hoping that
you are open to it--

Lisa!

Because it would give us a
little extra peace of mind.

All right, I guess it wouldn't hurt.

Thank you.

So I'm just gonna call them and order

and have them install it
as soon as they can.

Well, you don't have to
pay anyone to do that.

I can install it.

Is that really the best idea though?

Why not?

Well, we can't forget the
solar panel fiasco.

Aww, that's 'cause I
had Parker in my ear

the whole time-- I'll do it.

Okay. And then I'll just order
it and have it delivered.

Thank you.

Hey, Challenge!

Good to see you, Bud!

Hey!

Oh, you remember me, don't you?

Yes, I brought you something.

There you go.

Good boy.

[rattling]

- Hey, Amy!
- Hey, Cooper!

Thanks for coming by
on such short notice.

How have things been going here?

- Oh, it's super busy.
- Well, it's not a great time

for your trainer to up and leave, huh?

Yeah, exactly, and just as
I'm planning this big Gala

to raise awareness for the Center,

not to mention raising some money.

Yeah. Well, I'm happy to
help out when I can.

I mean, at least until you
find another trainer.

- Well, you're the best.
- Thanks.

[low hum of approaching chatter and laughter]

I think you'll like these kids.

They come from a group home
just outside of Hudson.

A couple of them have a bit of an edge,

but I know you can hold your own.

Glad you think so.

[laughter]
- Me too!
- Yeah.

Yeah. So, you can take Katie

for the last week of the month then.

Uh-huh.
But you'll have her back

for the long weekend, right?
[phone rings in the distance]

Okay. Yeah. Okay, great.

Um... [clears throat]

So is there anything
else that we should...

you know... talk about?

Nope. Yeah, yeah.

Great. Okay.

Okay, take care.

[clears throat]

- [gasps]
- Uh, Peter?

[sighs] You were listening?

Never. I can just tell
from your body language,

which screams "unfinished Business."

Okay, let's just focus on
town business, please?

Well, there was another
break-in last night.

Seriously?
This is a real problem.

Yeah, and everyone wants to know

what the Mayor is gonna do about it.

Well, we should really revamp
the community watch program.

That's been on my list forever.

Okay, I'll draft a press
release for that,

but one more thing.

There's a Paula Westfield
here to see you.

What? She just came in without
setting up a meeting?

She claims you go way back.

That is one way of putting it.

Just, um, tell her that, unfortunately,

the Mayor is too busy
to see her right now

and she can set up a meeting
like everybody else.

Hello, Lou.

Oh, come on, you didn't think
you were gonna get rid of me

that easily, did you?

[thunder rumbles, brush slides]

Uh, is this safe?

Do I have to do this?
You're Mac, right?

You don't need to be afraid.

No way I want that guy.

It's okay, he loves to be brushed.

Challenge is a really gentle horse.

Then why is his name Challenge?

Well, he was a bit more
work in the beginning,

but it all paid off.

Here.

[girl] I can't get this knot out.

Yeah, I'll be right there.

[Challenge grunts nervously as the gate squeaks open]

[Challenge grunts, agitated]

Stupid horse.

[bristles rub harshly, Challenge whinnies, agitated]

Hey! What are you doing?!

[Challenge whinnies nervously] Stop!

What's wrong with you?!

Back off, you crazy horse!

Hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...

Get it away from me!

But next time forget the brush,

We'll see how tough the horse really is.

Hey, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

We don't talk like that here, okay?

- Tell that to psycho.
- Okay, look,

I know what he did was scary,
but you have to understand

that horses have a strong
fight or flight instinct.

Yeah, not like Mac. I mean,
he was more like stop,

drop, and roll, eh?

- Shut up, Logan.
- Hey... c'mon, man.

[gate squeaks and clangs shut]

You know, it's a real good thing
that kid knew what to do.

I don't know what would've happened.

What, uh, what exactly did happen?

I don't know. I don't even
know what triggered him.

[Cooper's phone rings]

I'm sorry, I have to take
this. This is my caterer.

- Yeah, yeah.
- [beeps call on] Hey, Pam.

Yeah, I can get you those
numbers by tomorrow.

[a fluttery sigh escapes Challenge]

So, how is Peyton?

Oh, she's great. She has
really been on a roll lately.

How come we haven't seen Georgie

in any of the shows recently?

Oh, well, she's been really busy

training down in Florida, actually.

She has her eye on qualifying
for the Olympics.

Oh! [laughs]

That's um... good for her.

So, look, I would really like to discuss

the clear and present
danger in our midst.

This recent rash of burglaries...

our community is under siege.
Right.

Uh, listen, I share and
understand your concern,

but rest assured the police chief

has an on-going investigation
into the matter.

What's to investigate?

The source of the break-ins
is pretty obvious.

[both] It is?

Yes. It's that damn horse therapy center

and those juvenile delinquents
it's bringing in.

Actually, I'm sure those
are just foster children

from group homes who go to those camps.

Many who have a criminal
record, no doubt.

So, I am lobbying you to shut
down that facility immediately.

Paula, you know it's not that easy.

You claim to be a
take-action kind of mayor.

We need you to get rid
of the seedy element

that Center's bringing here.

Okay, I'll tell you what.
I will go by the Center myself

and check it out.

Well, that's a start.
[amused] Hmm.

Please let me know what you
decide as soon as possible.

Many of the people in my circle

supported your bid to become mayor.

You really don't wanna let us down.

Trust me.

[amused] Hmm.

- [sighs heavily]
- Well...

isn't she a charmer.

Ugh. That woman is such a piece of work.

You should've heard her.

She just assumes that those kids
were behind the break-ins.

Yeah, well, just because
they've had a rough past

doesn't make them criminals.

Are you two really that surprised?

Paula Westfield has always had
the high and mighty attitude.

[laughs] I know, but the ironic part

is that it's Paula and all
her well-off friends

that Cooper really wants at the Gala.

Oh my gosh, I completely
forgot about that.

I still haven't booked a babysitter.

We don't need one.
I've got it covered, remember?

Uh, I don't think that's a
good idea, not right now.

Not with all that's going on.

I'll... I'll stay home with the kids.

No, but Grandpa, Cooper needs
all the support he can get.

Well, exactly. That way...
all three of you can go.

Well, I'm not going if you're not going.

But I guess we'll stay home
and send a big donation.

What if it's true?

What if these kids are the ones
breaking into all the houses?

No, I... I don't think they are.

- Then who was it, Mommy?
- I don't know, Honey,

but the police are gonna
catch them, okay?

What if they come here?

No one is coming here.
We're safe.

And we're putting in a security system,

for extra protection.
What's that?

It monitors your home
and sets off an alarm

in case anyone ever breaks in.

I thought you said no
one was coming here.

They're not, but... just a precaution.

[utensils clink and scrape]

[a horse whinnies in the distance]

Hey! You heading to the Center?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna be
spending a lot of time there

until Cooper finds a new trainer.

Well, I hope he appreciates
you stepping in like this.

He does, Lou. He's actually
a very generous client.

Great! So, um...

these kids... what are they like?

You're not actually considering

what Paula Westfield said, are you?

- No, no. Not really, but...
- Lou.

These break-ins have
come out of nowhere.

- So what?
- So how can we be sure

they don't have anything to do with it?

[sighs heavily]

You know, when I look at these kids,

I see Ty at their age--
dealt a tough hand,

and then constantly judged for it.

And then the second anything goes wrong,

everybody turns their eyes on them,

and that's not fair.
I get that.

But maybe you're being a
little too biased here, Amy.

I mean, not every one of
these kids is like Ty,

and you don't really even
know them that well.

Whoever is responsible
for these break-ins

is putting families at risk.
Including ours.

I mean, you've seen how
worried Lyndy and Katie are.

Yeah. I know, and so am I.

But that doesn't mean we should
go pointing fingers at people

until we actually have a reason to.

I'm sorry, but I need to get
to the bottom of this.

- Then come with me.
- Well, I told Paula I would

and, well, my morning is pretty free.

Good. Follow me.

[doors bang shut] [Cooper] Wow.

Wasn't expecting to see both
the Fleming sisters today.

And I wasn't expecting to see you.

Clint, how are you?
Hey.

Good to see ya.

I thought Coop might need a little help

setting up this fancy event.
Yeah.

Where is Challenge?

I left him in the paddock.

I just didn't think it was safe
to bring him out just yet.

Can't afford anything
to go wrong right now.

I'll work with him after
the session today.

- See ya.
- See ya.

So what do I owe the pleasure
of a visit from our mayor?

- Well...
- Wouldn't have anything to do

with those burglaries, now, would it?

Yeah. That's the real reason I'm here.

We got a few calls saying your
kids might've been involved.

- Yeah, me too.
- These kids never get a break.

Look, I'm not saying I believe it, okay?

In fact, I came out here to
put the accusations to rest.

Well, thank you.

So when did this most recent
group of kids arrive?

- It's about a week ago.
- Timing's not great.

No. Pretty much lines up
exactly with the burglaries.

Trust me, all right, it wasn't them.

They work with the horses,
and it's chores all day.

Then we have dinner and
it's early curfew.

Well, is there any way they
could sneak off-site?

No. No, I would notice that.

And plus, that's just...

that's not who these kids are.

[packing sleeve rustles]

All right. Well, here's
the control panel.

I've got the door and window sensors.

This is...?

- That's a motion detector.
- Yeah.

This feels a bit overkill, doesn't it?

It's gonna be like Fort
Knox around here.

All right, you're having second thoughts

on putting all this up?
No, no--

I can still call and have
it installed, Honey.

I can do it, it just...

it's a lot of equipment and all.

I'll help Jack mount the
security cameras outside.

- Uh... that's a good idea.
- [quiet groan]

[Challenge grunts]

[Amy clucks her tongue and hisses]

[Challenge grunts, hooves thud]

You sure you wanna be in
there alone with that guy?

[chuckles] We have history.
I trust him.

He seems a lot calmer today.

Have you spent a lot of
time around horses?

No. Never, actually.

How can you tell he's calmer?

I don't know, he just seems like it.

You know, he's got a bit of
swagger to him or something.

[chuckles] And yesterday?
What was he like yesterday?

He was different.
You know, like more wound up,

especially when he went after Mac.

Yeah, and then you just
ran right in there.

How did you know he wasn't
gonna turn on you?

I didn't, I just kinda reacted.

Hmm. Well, you have a
good sense with horses,

especially when their all
worked up, like this one was.

What can I say?
I'm a natural.

Oh yeah, big shot?
Why don't you come in here

and work with us?
Uh, no, I'm good.

I don't wanna start
anything I can't finish.

You going somewhere?

Outta here.
My Dad's coming home.

- He's been away or something?
- Yeah...

I guess you could say that.

- Sorry, I didn't mean to pry.
- Oh no, it's all good.

At least it will be next week.

So don't either of you go
getting too attached to me.

- Okay.
- 'Cause...

my Dad's coming to get me
and I'll be outta here...

just like that.

No one was at the front desk,

so I thought I'd show myself in.

Actually, I was just on my way out.

- Have you heard?
- Heard what?

My ranch got broken into last night.

- What?
- Mm-hmm. Well, almost.

One of my grooms scared
the burglars away.

Well, that is a relief.
I'm uh...

I hope that they got a
good look at them.

No, it was too dark.
But I already know who it was.

You need to deal with those kids.

Actually, I just went by
the Center this morning.

Good. Did you put them on notice?

Paula, I am not closing down a facility

that provides important social services

based on your speculation.

Hudson has always been
a safe place to live.

So safe that most people don't
even lock their front doors.

Now there's this new Center

and homes are being
looted all of a sudden.

You can't think this is
a coincidence, Lou.

I told you, the police have
an ongoing investigation--

That is clearly going nowhere.

So...

it looks like we are gonna have
to deal with this ourselves.

Who's we?

The pillars of this community.

That Center is going down...

and who knows,

you just might go down with it.

[crickets chirp]

You know, what gives her
the right to stand there

and utter threats at me?

That's just who Paula is.
[laughs]

And the hardest part about being mayor

is having to keep your mouth shut

while all you wanna do is
give someone like Paula

a piece of your mind.
It's not working.

Okay. Well, let's just
go back to settings.

What is it you guys are trying to do?

We're trying to sync up
the security system

to a remote hub.

Right. And you're sure
that Grandpa's phone

is the best place for that?

give you a heads up.

Those thieves were at Paula
Westfield's ranch last night.

I've heard of her. She's a
pretty big deal around here.

Yeah, she likes to think so.

The problem is, she's
convinced it was these kids.

So, you need to watch your back.

Well, thanks, but I'm pretty
sure I can turn her around

on this place.

You haven't met Paula.
Well, maybe not,

but I know her type, and I'm
convinced that this Gala

will show her and the whole community

what a first-class
Center this really is.

You seem to be pinning a lot
of your hopes on this Gala.

Have you done anything like this before?

No, but I've been to
enough fundraising events

during my masters that
I know what works.

You get a, a posh venue,

great catering, an
upscale silent auction.

It goes a long way.
Well, you do seem to have

a lot of local businesses on board.

Yeah, it wasn't too
tough, just expensive.

Well, I hope that they
were offering donations

and cutting you deals.

I didn't do too much haggling.

It costs what it costs.
Right.

Hey, look, I've been running businesses

for going on 15 years. I would
be happy to take a look

Challenge goes first.

Yeah. It'll be great to have him back.

You can tell he really likes
being around people.

Why doesn't he stay in the barn?

Well, he's a wild horse at heart.

I gentled him last year,

but even a gentled wild horse
doesn't like to be confined.

Yeah, I get that.

I mean, I can't wait to get
out of the group home.

It can't be easy to tame a wild horse.

[birds chirp]

[wild horses neigh, Spartan grunts]

[softly] Hey, boy...

I'm just gonna hang out
here with you, okay?

[birds chirp, the Paint nickers]

[birds chirp, horses sigh contentedly]

[screen door snaps shut] [Lisa] Hey!

I have been working the
phone all morning.

Oh yeah? You got a bead
on another horse?

No, no. No. I've been calling
all my Fairfield clients,

uh, talking up this Gala,

because I think that Center
needs every cent it can get.

And that got me thinking...
that we should be there.

Lis, you know how I don't love

those fancy hobnobbin' deals.

Besides, we said we'd
look after the kids.

I know. So, what I'm thinking
is that we take them with us,

because the family has
been on edge lately

and it would be really nice

to have a fun night out together.

I don't know...

Well, you do know how much I love

seeing how handsome you are
in that suit I bought you.

Okay. [chuckles] Fine,

I'll get handsome for you.

We'll make a brief appearance.
Brief.

[chuckles softly]

[sighs]

[horses nicker]

[birds chirp]

[The Paint grunts and blows out his breath]

[grunting]

[birds chirp, the Paint grunts softly]

- That was pretty cool.
- Thanks.

Yeah, the... the first
step with a wild horse

is just letting them get to know you.

He definitely seemed interested.

- Mm-hmm.
- He came right up to you.

That's a really great sign.

So what's next?

Well, we just have to be patient.

You know, we have to be
patient in order to build

a strong bond.

Is that why Challenge
trusts you so much?

Exactly.
[phone beeps]

All right, we should probably get back.

- All right.
- Come on, Spartan.

[The Paint whinnies, hooves thud]

'Kay, so before you get on your horse,

I wanna make sure that you
have your reins in your hand.

Put your left foot in your stirrup

and just swing up.

I want you to stay nice
and centered, okay?

Make sure that everything is-- [slams gate]

[nervous grunts,
high-pitched nicker] Whoa.

Whoa. Whoa! Hey, hey, hey, Challenge!

[Challenge grunts, agitated] C'mon, man. Back off.

- Easy, easy, you're fine.
- C'mon, back off.

Hoo... hoo... Mac, hold on!

[Challenge grunts]

[tack jingles]

Are you putting him back in the paddock?

I don't have much choice.

It's obvious that it's not just
loud noises that scare him,

it's Mac too.
You're okay.

Well, what's gonna happen

if Challenge can't work
with the kids here?

Cooper's gonna have to get rid of him.

- Where would he go?
- I don't know.

But he can't go back to his herd.

[fence creaks open, hooves clop]

[phone chimes]

[Lou blows out her breath, computer keys clack]

Cooper. Thanks for coming to see me.

Hey. Sorry, you've been
trying to get hold of me.

I can only stay a few minutes though.

Tonight's the big night!
Yeah, I know,

but this couldn't wait.
Please, sit.

[laptop snaps shut]

Your Center's in big trouble.
What do you mean?

C'mon, Cooper.
You've been way overspending

on the day-to-day and
you haven't even been

submitting cost reports to
your funding agencies.

I've had a lot on my plate, all right?

- You could lose your grants.
- I know!

But I feel like I'm getting
strangled in all this red tape.

[sighs]

Look, all I want to do
is help these kids!

I don't have time for any of
that other stuff right now.

I understand,

and I actually have some ideas
on how you can scale back

and how you can pull your
center out of debt.

Look, I really appreciate
you taking the time

to look through my books,
all right? I really do.

But right now I just...

I just need to focus on
this Gala, all right?

Hey, uh, maybe we could go
rafting when you're out.

Yeah, white water rapids.
Why not?

Okay, yeah, that sounds cool too.

We're gonna have such a
great summer together.

All right.
Bye, Dad.

[loud crack, a horse nickers in distress]

[loud crack] [teens] Whoa!

[loud crack, high-pitched, agitated nicker]

[loud crack, agitated, nervous nicker]

[loud crack, High-pitched, agitated nicker]

What are you doing?

We're just havin' a little fun.

[loud crack, Challenge whinnies, agitated]

He's a wild horse, you can't
put him in the stall.

He gets way more riled up in here.

[loud crack] Enough!

Or what?!
You gonna beat me up?

[loud crack, Challenge whinnies]

Yeah, maybe. Maybe I'll let the
horse out the stall, huh,

see what happens!

[Challenge nickers nervously]

[plastic bag rustles]

Those are mine.

Not anymore.

Thief!

Like father like son, hey, Logan?

[bag of whipper snappers drops]

[hard thud]

Let's get outta here!

- Whoa, that was insane!
- [seething exhales]

Yeah, did you see him lose his temper?

- Yeah! It was amazing.
- It's okay.

Hey. Hey... [Challenge grunts]

It's okay, they're gone now.

It's just you and me, Buddy.

Come on, let's get you outta here.

[latch clanks]

[Challenge grunts softly, hooves thud]

Hey.

Hey, you okay?

[birds chirp]

[Lou] So... I finally talked to Cooper.

- Mm. What did you say?
- I told him the truth;

that I think the Center's
in big trouble.

Ugh. And how did he take that?

Well, he didn't seem surprised,

but he kind of freaked out a little bit.

To be honest, I think he's
in way over his head,

and I think he's putting way
too much stock in this Gala.

I know, but his heart's
in the right place.

I hope this works out for him.

- Well, it'd be a start.
- [chuckles sigh]

C'mon, GG, we've got to go.

- You ready?
- I'm comin', I'm comin'.

Wow, look at all of you.

I must be the luckiest man in the world

to be escorting... one, two, three,

four, five beautiful ladies to a party.

Well, you look pretty
handsome yourself, Cowboy.

Now hur-ry up.
Yes, yes, yes.

What's this?
I haven't seen it before.

That's a nice watch.
How come you never wear it?

It's just a piece of metal.
[watch thuds]

Okay. We'll see you guys there.

- 'Kay.
- Ready?

I'm sorry if I'm moving
in slow motion today.

Between phone apps, and raccoons,

and false alarms,

I... hardly slept a wink last night.

Okay. And you'll set the alarm?

- Yes, yes, I'll set the alarm.
- All right.

I will see you in the truck.

- Okay.

[low hum of chatter, wine glasses clink]

Wow, Cooper sure put a lot
of effort into this.

Yeah, and money.

Hey, hey, hey.

I'm glad to see the whole
family could make it out.

Yeah. Katie and Lyndy already
found the dessert table.

- [chuckles]
- This place looks incredible.

Yeah, thanks. I really think
this it's gonna pay off.

- So fancy.
- Crazy nice.

Can we get something to eat?
I'm starving.

It's amazing. Look, they
have a whole tray.

Uh, looks like I need to give these kids

a quick refresher on Gala etiquette.

Excuse me.

[piano music plays quietly, low hum of chatter]

Um, Logan, come here.

I want you to meet my family.

- So this is Logan.
- I'm Lisa.

Jack. Good to meet ya.

I understand you have a way with horses.

[laughs] I don't know about that.

[both chuckle]

Uh, can I talk to you about something?

Yeah, of course.

Cooper said he wants us
all to sit at our table

and be quiet.
Come on, we gotta go.

We'll chat after.

[low hum of chatter, piano music plays]

Anybody need another round?

[chuckling]

[Lisa] You all right there?

No. Those raccoons are
setting off motion alerts

every five minutes.
[camera dings]

Well, Honey, if it's
bothering you that much,

just go into the settings and
turn off the camera alerts.

Let me do it.
No, no, no, it's okay.

I'm getting the hang of this.
All right.

Hey, Cooper's gonna say a few words.

He's gonna explain a couple
of things about the Center.

[low hum of chatter, phone dings]

So what I want to leave you
with tonight is that,

on the surface, equine horse therapy

may look like it's all
about feeding, grooming,

and taking care of horses, which it is,

but more importantly are the life skills

that are built as a result.

So, this includes everything
from emotional regulation

to building self-confidence,

taking responsibility for others.

Now, running a facility

like Higher Ground Equestrian
Therapy is expensive,

so we desperately need your help.

Now the impact this Center
has on these kids--

Um, what about the impact
it has on the community?

What about our safety?

Because any support we
provide to this...

dumping ground for juvenile delinquents

is only inviting more danger to Hudson.

Those kids arrived here
at exactly the same time

the break-ins began.

Coincidence?
I think not.

And after doing some digging,

you probably won't be surprised to learn

that we found several of them

already have criminal records.

- Uh, ma'am, if I could just--
- No, no, no.

Don't "ma'am" me, and don't silence me.

I am one of the victims
of these burglaries.

Not only will we not
support your Center,

but we will continue to push our Mayor,

Lou Fleming, to do the right thing

and shut you down.
Okay, all right.

That's enough.
You've had your say.

[chuckles] Yes, I have.

You guys okay?

I can't believe she did that.

How am I gonna get any
sponsorship money now?

Oh, c'mon, Cooper, it's just one night.

You don't get it, Clint.
Everything was riding on this.

If we can't raise significant money,

[sighs] it's over.

[piano music plays softly, low hum of chatter]

Check it out. Snuck it
from one of the tables.

[laughs] Wow.
Great job, Mac.

We're all gonna share one beer?

[Mac snorts]

[glass thunks]

[low hum of chatter]

Those robberies...

got anything to do with them?

Dude. Have you lost your mind?

I sleep in the bunk right above you.

Think I'm sneaking out the window?

I don't trust you.

Oh, so that's what it's about, hey?

Your soft spot for locked up animals...

just like your Dad?

[piano music plays, glasses clink]

[hard punch, loud crash, everyone gasps]

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Logan, Logan, back off.

What the heck is wrong with you two?

He sucker punched me
right out of the blue.

He's been torturing Challenge.

Putting him in a stall

and throwing firecrackers
at him to scare him.

Mac! No wonder the horse went after you.

- I should've let him get you.
- Hey, hey.

This is not the time for this, okay?

[rushed footsteps]

This is all really upsetting, Cooper.

- Ms. Fitzroy.
- I'm going to have to

reconsider my contributions
going forward.

[sighs heavily]

Well, that was a complete disaster.

Well... it's...

oh, no, we don't know that yet.

C'mon, Clint.

That scuffle was the final
nail in our coffin.

Those kids ruined it for all of us.

Cooper, I know you're upset, but...

I hope you're not blaming Logan.

- He started the fight, Amy.
- You heard him.

You know what Mac did with Challenge.

He better be suspended from the Center.

What Center?
There's no way I can dig us

out of this hole now.
Hey, look,

things might look bleak, but...
you can still save this.

I can help you put a plan in place.

[sighs] Let's talk later.

You know, tonight, I just
need to lick my wounds.

- Yeah. Good night.
- Good night.

Stay here. Stay here!

Oh no. Amy's already calling the police.

Okay. Give, give me your phone.

Stay in the car with the girls.

Give me your phone!
I wanna see when they went in.

[Amy] ...to report a break-in...

- Why didn't I get any alerts?
- I don't know, Honey.

[Amy] Um, no, I...

Because you didn't turn off the camera,

you turned off the entire
system, that's why.

Thank you.

Wait a minute! Wait a minute!
