Previously on When
Calls the Heart...

Dad? Mrs. Thornton?

The name is Jacob Canfield.

Are you sure you guys aren't
going to get into trouble?

It's worth it if we do.

Michael, help me out here.
Can you reason with her?

She's your sister. Do something!

Sorry, this one
is non-negotiable.

We have so much in common.

You see, I was once
engaged to Lucas Bouchard.

Dad, can I ask you something?

Yeah, shoot.

What's going on between
you and Mrs. Thornton?

Nothing.

We're just friends.

The other day in the orchard

it seemed like you
were more than that.

Allie...

She's amazing, and she's
super important to me, but...

But what?

I just don't want you to
get hurt... like before.

That was a long time
ago, ok? A lot's changed.

If you say so.

Look, I appreciate your
concern, alright? I do.

I am telling you there's
nothing to worry about.

Ok.

Have a good day at school.

I promise, no more surprises.

You always have
surprises on your tests.

That's not true.

Some surprises, maybe.

I'll flunk this
one, I just know it.

Hey. Maintain a
positive attitude.

We've been practicing this.

When you visualize how to
solve the problem, you succeed.

Like with the Easter egg.

Egg-zactly.

Except, use a baseball
or some other object.

Don't try to answer the
problem like everyone else.

Do you know why?

Why?

Because you are
unlike anyone else,

and that's what
makes you special.

I'll see you at school?

Thanks, Mrs. Thornton.

Elizabeth.

Hi.

I'm glad I ran into you.

I owe you an apology.

I'm listening.

I'm very sorry that Jeanette
ambushed you like that.

And more than that,

I'm sorry I didn't tell you
the entire truth about her.

So were you engaged?

We talked about it. Mostly
she talked about it.

There was never a ring
or anything like that.

Mm.

When we had to leave New Orleans

she, of course, wanted
to stay together.

By then I'd realized
my heart wasn't in it.

Then I came here, I met you.

Lucas, you needn't have worried.

Thank you for the apology,

but I'm really not
bothered by Jeanette.

I just wanted to leave
my past behind me.

But it keeps finding you.

It would seem that
way, wouldn't it?

As far as I'm concerned,

you and I will
always be friends.

I'm very relieved to hear that.

I thought I might find you here.

I like it out here
better than in an office.

Hmm.

You know, I find it hard to
believe that growing hazelnuts

will be enough for you for long.

Well, I aim to find out.

Henry

Lucas, if you're gearing up

to ask me to come
work for you again,

you're wasting your breath.

I need your help, Henry.

If we can't settle this land
dispute with Benson Hills,

the resort could fall through.

Why is this so important to you?

It's not about me. This
is about Hope Valley.

Ok.

Look, our other initiatives
are looking promising.

The harbor renewal
in Cape Fullerton,

various housing developments,

but this is about making sure
that my hometown can benefit

from my administration as
much as those other places.

You know what? Never mind.

Look, I'd like to help,
you know, I just-I can't.

I understand the
position you're in but.

Help me, Henry.

I promised myself I'd
take a different route.

Good morning.

Good morning.

We made soup yesterday, I
saved the bone for Scout.

Uh, he's not in today.
Decided to take the day off.

Oh, ok.

Well, maybe you
could take it to him?

Uh... he'll love it. Thanks.

Is everything alright?

Yeah, of course.

Nathan?

I... I really have to get this
paperwork done, Elizabeth.

Right, of course. Don't
let me distract you.

You'll see we have a
list of requirements

for our participation in
this resort, Mayor Hickam.

Thank you, Mayor Hickam.

Oh, brother.

Uh... so Benson Hills wants
Hope Valley to build you

a new train station? And
a railroad extension?

Mmhmm.

And you want us to
build you a town dump?

It's only fair, Mikey.

Considering the extra refuse

that all those tourists
are going to create.

Eh...

Ok, we can agree to
build you the dump.

- And a band shell?
- Mmhmm.

- A baseball diamond?
- Mm.

And a new public
transportation system

with ten passenger
buses? Really?

And that's a must.

Well, to carry all the tourists
from our new train station

to the resort. Hmm?

Oh, haha!

And remember, the
new access road

has to go through Benson Hills.

Maisie, why does everything
always have to be your way?

Because if the Governor insists
on this pipe dream going ahead

then we want to be
in control of it.

That ought to do it.

No more dripping tap?

Mmm-mmm.

Mama will be happy.

If Mama's happy then I'm happy.

Joseph, you have a letter.

Oh, can you just place that
on the table for me, sweetie?

Thanks.

You're gonna wanna read
this. It's from Jacob.

Oh.

Jacob?

So? What did he say?

He said it's been too long.

He's open to a visit.

Well, that's wonderful.
Isn't that wonderful, kids?

That's great.

That's wonderful.

How did he get our address?

Maybe he talked to
your Aunt Margret.

Hmm.

What is it?

He said he got my letter.

He's looking forward to...

To what?

He's looking forward
to my apology.

Has he lost his mind?
I never wrote him.

It's always the
same old problem.

How am I supposed to apologize

if he won't tell me what
I supposedly did wrong?

Did he really say that?

This makes me so mad.

I'm-children, listen.

Our doors are always
open to family.

The Lord says
welcome thy visitor.

Love him as I love myself.

But if-if Jacob thinks
he's got a blanket apology

coming from me, he's got
another thing coming.

Nathan!

We found something.

In Pike's confession he claims

that he shot Lucas
from a distance.

But it doesn't track with
the angle of the bullet.

You showed Rosemary
the case file?

Well yeah, I had
to. We're a team.

We certainly are.

Alright Bill, show
him what we found.

Alright, if you look at the
medical report at the angle

of the wound in Lucas's leg,

basically he had to be
inches from the shooter.

And the only way
that could happen.

Is if Lucas and the shooter
struggled for the gun,

and then it went off in
a downward trajectory.

But if the shooter
was that close,

then Lucas had to see his face.

If only Lucas can remember.

Alright, time's up, everyone.

Please pass your
quizzes forward.

How was that, Toby?

Hope my baseball did the trick.

I'm sure it did.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, Opal.

So now that we have
finished our quizzes,

I have a very special
surprise for all of you.

All the way from teacher's
college in Capital City...

Come on in!

- Anna!
- Oh my gosh!

It's so great to see you!

- Anna!
- We missed you.

How's teacher's college?

It's great, thanks. It's
so good to see all of you.

Anna is going to be with us
for the next little while.

She'll be doing what's
called a practicum.

Does that mean you're
going to be teaching us?

I'm going to try,

but I won't be anywhere near
as good as Mrs. Thornton.

I don't know about that.

I think you'll find
you're a natural.

She is an immovable
force, that's for sure.

Who's an immovable force?

- Maisie.
- Yeah.

She knows she has
me over a barrel.

We're supposed to be
negotiating, mayor to mayor,

and every time I'm around her

I just feel like
her little brother.

She called me Mikey.

She did.

Ah, Lucas...

I need to talk with you.

Can it wait?

Not really.

We learned something
new about the shooting.

Bill, I have bigger problems.

Speaking of which, join me.

Maybe I should use
Maisie's nickname?

No, no.

How did it go this morning?

Same old Maisie.

Sounds like she
needs a pampering.

Yeah, I have agreed to meet
her later this afternoon

but I don't think she's
taking these negotiations

very seriously.

Just stand your ground, Hickam.

That's what I've
been trying to do.

I'm not sure if pitting Mike
and Maisie against each other

is going to achieve
the outcome you want.

Well, he's the only
mayor we've got.

Besides you.

No, no. I made it very
clear I was acting mayor,

subbing for Hickam here.

Plus, I prefer my
life headache free.

What about you?

What about me what?

Well, you've always
wanted the job.

If Lee wants to be
mayor, be my guest.

You only lost by a little bit.

Guys, come on. Not like this.

You can't just declare me mayor.

Why not?

We've got the
Governor right here.

Your eminence, what say ye?

Mike?

I officially resign.

In that case,
until a date is set

for an interim
election-if Lee agrees.

Well, I just.

He does.

I could appoint
you mayor Pro Tem.

Oh, that has a nice ring to it.

Mmhmm.

Excellent. Lee,
you're appointed.

Congratulations, Lee.

Yeah. Well done.

Sure.

Tag, you're it.

Ok.

It sounds like you're really
enjoying Capital City.

Everyone's really nice.

And how about your courses?

Teacher college is a lot harder
than I thought it would be.

Oh.

You make teaching look so easy.

Well, in my experience,

there's a difference between
how they teach you to teach

and what you learn
by actually doing it.

I feel I'm so much
further behind

than the other student teachers.

Anna, you are one of
the younger enrollees,

and you will be amazed how
much more confident you feel

at the end of all this.

I hope so.

I know so.

I do have tests to mark,
so what do you say?

Sure.

Alright.

Mrs. Thornton, is
something wrong?

No, not at all. Shall we?

- Hey.
- Hmm.

So um... I have news.

Oh, in the nick of time. I
need a headline for tomorrow.

Now, before I tell you, I want
you to know that I will not

let this get in the
way of our family life.

You and Goldie
always come first.

Oh no, did we buy
another saloon?

No. No, nothing like

well, actually it is
kind of on that scale of

Lee?!

Lucas just made me mayor!

What?!

I know! It's crazy.

I mean, it's only until the
next election, but sweetheart,

I really want a shot at this. I
think I can make a difference.

You know?

Mmm. Not that I'm complaining,

but what exactly did
I do to deserve that?

Lee Coulter, you were
made to be mayor.

I think it's perfect.
I'm so proud of you.

And I always thought I would
make a wonderful political wife.

Ah.

Holding salons, debating
issues of the day,

driving conversation towards
a better world for all of us.

Yep, I can see it now.

Everyone, the results on
this morning's math quiz

are excellent.

Every one of you.

Congratulations.

And, on that note, we
will see you all tomorrow.

Thank you so much.

I knew you could do
it, Toby. Well done.

Today, fractions.
Tomorrow, algebra.

That's the spirit.

Thank you.

Wow, your dad sounds
really mad at your uncle.

He's gonna be really mad
at us when he finds out.

So what're you gonna do?

I don't know. What can we do?

Do about what?

We did something not very smart.

Our dad hasn't spoken to
his brother in a long time

so we wanted to
bring them together.

So we found his address.

And wrote him a letter.

And signed it from our dad.

I see.

And our uncle wrote back and
wants an apology from our dad.

Oh dear.

And dad's even madder now.

Well, it's certainly
a sticky situation.

And I think we can all agree
that you may have overstepped.

But your hearts were
in the right place.

You were just trying to help,

so I'm sure your
father will understand.

So you think we should tell him?

I think you already
know the answer to that.

Mind if I sit?

By all means.

You got that dark
cloud again, Henry.

What's bothering you?

I want peace, Joseph.

Business is war for
me and I want peace.

Why do you feel
you can't have it?

Lucas wants me to
help with that resort.

I just don't know
if I can do it.

Business doesn't
excite you anymore?

It's not the business.

What doesn't excite me is
the person that I become

when I'm doing the business.

Henry, you've grown.
You've changed.

You're wiser now.

I'm grayer now.

I wouldn't say
that I'm any wiser.

I would.

Henry, you know all this.

You've been called upon
to share your wisdom.

It's up to you if
you want to do it.

Ooooh, this feels delightful.
Thank you for suggesting it.

Oh, the tingling. And the aroma.

That's ginseng.

We grow it in our
community garden.

Hmm.

Now, if you could only do
something for this shoulder.

Why, is it bothering you?

It always seems to act
up in moments of stress,

which usually either
means politics or family.

And in this case...
huh, it's both.

Well, I can make you a
salve at the pharmacy or,

if you're open to it, I
could try acupressure.

It's been known to relieve pain

and I studied it in my
grandmother's journal.

Oh, well I'm willing
to try anything.

Ok.

Oh! What're you doing?

Chi flows through your
body via meridian lines.

I'm applying pressure to
your chi meridian point.

Oh, pressure works wonders.

Oh!

I guess I'll just have to keep
making unreasonable demands

until Mayor Mikey and
the Governor give up

on this ridiculous resort.

Oh, you haven't heard.

Oh! Oh! Oh!

That feels good.

Maisie, if you
are so against it,

why not just say no?

Oh.

Well, because unfortunately
not everyone sees it my way.

The Governor has dazzled

the good people of
Benson Hills with

ideas of this resort.

Oh.

Sh!

You don't have to give
her special treatment

just because she's my sister.

She's very nice when
she has her guard down.

And she's been confiding a lot.

For instance, did you know she's
intentionally being difficult?

She wants you to give up.

What?

Why not just walk
away from the table?

Why is she making
us suffer like this?

Because she knows she
doesn't have support

from her constituents.

She said that?!

She said that?

You should talk to your sister
and I should get back inside.

So everything's fine
between you and Lucas?

Yes.

I think all either one of
us wants is to be friends.

Well, great.

Everyone needs fabulous friends

who endeavor to do great things.

Looking back, there
was love, just not.

The love you had with Jack.

Or that you have with Lee.

Is it asking too much to
want that kind of love again?

No.

It's written in the stars.

I know it is just
waiting for you.

Well, I'm just not sure the
stars always have it right.

Elizabeth... what is going on?

Sometimes it's just hard
to know what's going on

in other people's
minds and hearts.

Nathan's.

Trouble is, minds and
hearts don't always agree.

So Maisie's being
obstructionist on purpose?

I think she's trying to
get us to pull the plug

because she knows that
the people of Benson Hills

want the resort.

So this negotiation.

Isn't actually a negotiation.

Henry, are you hearing this?

I am.

Well, could you throw
us a bone, please?

Well, she has a point.

I mean, look what
happened to Louis Creek.

Oh, no, that developer
was a tax cheat.

That project was
doomed from the start.

Yeah. Not much of
a creek, either.

She's trying to paint
you into a corner.

You gotta take the
paintbrush away from her.

Ok. And how do we do that?

I have a thought.

Sounds like you might
be on board, Henry.

We'll see about that.
Let's talk tomorrow.

Gentlemen.

Henry.

Excuse me.

Mmhmm.

Care for a small wager
on Around the Clock?

Against you?

I don't trust my luck.

Suit yourself.
And it's not luck.

Skill.

Yeah, that too.

You seem upbeat.

Some things may have
shifted in my favor.

And I cleared up a small
misunderstanding with Elizabeth.

You mean about Jeanette.

You heard about that, too?

Who hasn't?

You can't put your
socks on in this town

without everybody
hearing about it.

Well, you were engaged to
her, if I've got that right.

You have that wrong.

We were together briefly,
a very long time ago.

But anyways, turns out
Elizabeth hardly batted an eye

so I suppose that means she's
well and truly moved on.

And you're ok with that?

I'd rather have her as a friend

than not have her
in my life at all.

Hi, kids.

- Hi pop.
- Hi daddy.

Want some pie, pop?

I would love some,
Coop. Thank you.

Thank you.

How's my baby girl doing?

Fine, daddy.

What's going on with you two?

We have something to tell you.

Ok. Shoot.

Come on, now. Out with it.

We sent Uncle Jacob a letter.

That's why he wrote you.

But we didn't mean
to cause trouble.

It's just-after
what you told us,

about how important siblings are

and how Cooper and I were
taking that for granted,

we just thought...

We thought that you might be
taking it for granted, too.

You may be right.

It's ok, baby girl. It's
alright, Coop. Come on.

It's alright.

It didn't take very long.

Opal, that is so good.

Thanks.

That's exactly how I picture it.

Good morning, ladies.
What do we have here?

Opal has made a
drawing of the resort.

How I imagined it could be.

May I see?

Oh, my goodness. I'm speechless.

When did you draw this?

After we went up the mountain
with Governor Bouchard

he really made me see
what it would look like.

His GV.

His what?

Governor Bouchard's
grand vision.

Oh.

My goodness, this
is just so precise.

Opal, you really have the
makings of an architect.

You really think so?

I really do.

Or maybe an engineer?

Mrs. Thornton, could you give
it to Governor Bouchard for me?

I would be happy to.

Thank you.

Nice work, Anna. You
helped give Opal a GV.

Governor.

I see you've decided to
join our little discussion.

I thought my presence
might be helpful.

Maisie, before we start.

Business first, Michael.

But you should know that.

Let's get on with
this, shall we?

Certainly.

We have come up with a solution

that we feel will be beneficial
and fair to both parties.

Henry, would you
care to explain?

We accept all your demands.

You do?

But we, uh, feel that we
have an idea that can benefit

both Benson Hills
and Hope Valley.

And what might that be?

We merge the towns.

You can't be serious.

We're very serious.

If this is an attempt to
push me out of office.

No. Not at all.

Until the next election
we'll have co-mayors.

Hmm. Co-mayors, you say?

But you should know that

Mikey, I'm speaking
with the Governor.

And if one of these
co-mayors manages

to persuade the other
one to oppose the resort?

That would be most unfortunate.

But I can't see moving forward

unless we have the full
support of at least one mayor.

Hmm.

Then I agree.

Excellent.

Gentlemen.

Thank you, Madam Mayor.

Oh, and by the way,
Michael is no longer mayor.

Mr. Coulter is.

And I look forward
to our collaboration.

Sorry, Maisie. I
tried to tell you.

Elizabeth!

Hello.

Hi.

Um, can I-can I talk to you?

Listen, um... about yesterday.

I owe you an apology.

It was obviously
just bad timing.

No, it-it wasn't that.

Then what was it?

I thought that...

I thought you and
Lucas were still...

Nathan, no.

There's nothing going
on between Lucas and me.

We're just friends.

I know. I know.

But... what am I to you?

I mean... are we just friends?

Elizabeth, there's an emergency
meeting of the town council.

Nathan, you may
wish to join us too.

You want to merge the towns?

You mean we won't be
Hope Valley anymore?

What would we be called?

Maisie's never
gonna go for that.

She won't have a
choice but to go along.

She'll still have a chance
to express her views.

We will be co-mayors.

But all of you have to
agree on it... unanimously.

So what are our options?

We merge the towns
or we kill the resort

and it can be built in the
hills of Jameson or Buxton.

Buxton?!

Jameson doesn't
have half our charm.

But there is one
potential downside.

Merging the towns means
our school will fall

under the jurisdiction of
The Valley School District.

We'll lose our independence.

I don't like the sound of that.

Remember the last time the
school board came knocking.

If it affects Elizabeth's
school then I say no.

We've had our issues with
the school board before

but we've always overcome them.

This could mean more benefits.

A larger school
district could mean

better opportunities
for our kids.

Better resources.

Are you saying you're in favor
of the merger, Elizabeth?

You really believe in this?

I do.

Economically, it will
mean a better future

for the whole valley
and for everyone in it.

Then I say yes.

So the towns are merged?

When we last met you
were in agreement.

Well, that was before.

Before you found out that I
was going to be your co-mayor

instead of Michael?

Try pushing Lee around.

We would like to
work with you, Mayor.

And we promise to compromise
on your demands in good faith.

But yes, it is fait d'accompli.

This is a terrible idea and will
bring trouble to this valley.

I promise you, as Governor,
that won't happen.

Mmm.

Like your predecessor promised
the valley's water was safe?

Hmph.

I may be a lone voice

but I will continue to
fight this monstrosity.

And maybe the voters will turn
against me in the next election.

But at least I will be
able to sleep at night.

Can you say the same?

Maisie, your own council agreed.

Ugh, Mike, you are being fooled.

Maisie, you're wrong.

I know you're not used to
hearing it but you're wrong.

This isn't over.

I'm sorry, Lucas.

No, I'm sorry to
cause a family rift.

Oh, don't worry about that.

As Hickam rifts
go, this was mild.

Well, in the end, thanks to
Henry, you got your deal.

Congratulations, fellas.

Thank you.

Well played, Henry.

I knew I needed you on
the team. Welcome aboard.

Am I disturbing you?

Not at all, come on in. Would
you like to take a seat?

I can't stay.

Well, I want to say I'm sorry
about the blindside today.

That's alright.

I suppose it was inevitable we'd
have to join the school board.

I promise I'll do
everything in my power

to make sure you
maintain independence.

Thank you, Lucas.
I appreciate that.

Um, Opal really wanted
you to have this.

I think she was
inspired on the hike.

This is even better
than I imagined.

She really believes
in the Bouchard GV.

The GV?

Grand vision.

At least that's what the
children are calling it.

And I believe in it, too.

That means a great deal to me.

Well, I'm sure you
have lots to do,

merging towns and all that,
so I will leave you to it.

I meant what I said yesterday.

About how much your
friendship means to me.

Me too.

Would you make me a promise?

If you have the opportunity
to be truly happy,

you jump in with both feet.

You deserve that.

Thank you.

I will.

They were only trying to help.

I know. But now I
gotta deal with this.

You and Jacob used to
be close, very close.

I remember when I first saw you.

You were side by side
singing in the church choir.

He used to love to harmonize.

Hmm.

Granddaddy taught us.

And then he decided that
somehow I crossed him

and he didn't want to
speak to me anymore.

I don't recall you
beating down his door.

Minnie, he's impossible.
And difficult.

And stubborn. He's
so stubborn, Minnie.

I guess that runs in the family.

It's been a long time. Remember
what you told the kids.

There's nothing more
precious than family.

You have nothing to lose
and everything to gain.

The angle at which the bullet
entered your leg is clear.

The shooter was inches from you.

Ok. So what you're saying is.

You saw the shooter.

Who I assume was Clayton
Pike, who confessed.

We're concerned that
Pike didn't act alone.

In fact, he might not
have even been there.

If the real culprit is still out
there you could be in danger.

I appreciate your concern.

However, if anyone
else was involved

they've had five months
to finish the job.

I would think they
would have tried by now.

We're all just trying
to keep you safe.

I know, Rosemary. And thank you.

If you remember anything...

Of course.

Oh, wait.

I do remember something.

I grabbed the gun. Just
before it went off.

Did you see his face?

Just the gun. That's all.

Are you sure? The
smallest detail can help.

I'm sorry, Bill.

If you remember anything else...

Yes, I will.

I think I'm just tired.
It's been a long day.

Hey.

Dishes are done.

Thanks, kiddo.

Whatcha doing out here?

Just thinking.

Hmm.

Look, about yesterday,

I'm sorry I stuck my nose
where it doesn't belong.

You were just
looking out for me.

Thank you.

So what're you gonna do?

Well, I'm thinking of
taking Scout out for a walk,

work off some of this dinner.

About Mrs. Thornton?

Well, that, Allie, is...
complicated, really.

I... I uh, have homework.

- Hi.
- Hi.

I didn't get a chance to
answer your question earlier.

Oh. Elizabeth, we don't have to

Nathan...

Friends don't look
at friends this way.

Goodnight.
