Time?

-6 minutes flat. -Yes! Yes!

A young lady shouldn't be riding around like some daredevil.

The faster I go, the more orders I get delivered.

The more tips I make.

Thank you.

-Somebody is hungry. Where to? -Your place.

That's very cool of you, Moe, but I can pay.

Consider it a bonus.

Some of your friends came by. Said to meet you at the skatepark.

I-- I can't. I got something important to take care of.

Just be careful. -That's why I got a brain bucket.

-Thanks, Moe! See you! -Bye.

Hey, Grandma.

Moe comped us dinner.

Let's eat.

[WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY ON TV]

Move it, lady!

Oh! -Grandma!

Grandma!

Come on! Get out of the way!

What's going on? -Grandma!

Grandma, what are you doing?

What are you doing in the road, Grandma?

What--? No, no. No, no. It's okay. Maybe he'll drive home.

Why don't we just get you inside. Don't they know I'm...?

Mrs. Evans, did you hear what I said?

My Donald's coming home from Korea today.

We're going to get married.

Do you think they're going to have a parade?

I know that this is hard, but please try to stay with me.

We are discussing your granddaughter, Carrie McLaughlin.

Now, you say that her mother was killed in a car accident 7 years ago?

I did the best I could. Always did, always tried.

No one is blaming you, Mrs. Evans. But given your medical history...

you are no longer qualified to care for a minor.

Since there is no other legal guardian, state regulations say that foster care--

I don't need foster care.

Do you want to go to a parade?

Grandma, please.

Please don't let them take me away.

Your grandmother needs to be in a care facility...

with trained professionals...

-Please. -that know how to handle her.

I can take care of both of us, okay? Grandma, tell them we're okay.

Please.

I wanna stay here with you.

I think... -Please.

maybe it's time you went to live with your father.

There is a father? Where--?

Where is he?

Where is the concrete?

Welcome to Wyoming.

Well, it's not much...

but after the horse sale, we can go to town.

I don't need anything.

I was sorry to hear about your mother.

That was a long time ago.

By the way, the reception out here sucks.

Look, I'm not much a talker, Carrie. I guess what I'm trying to say is that--

You don't have to say anything. You and Mom were young.

She split for the city and didn't make it easy to find us.

I don't blame you.

I don't blame her. It's just-- It's my life.

So really, you don't have to say anything.

I'll let you get settled in.

Don't worry. They're not real.

That's a relief. Um...

Try to get some sleep.

Good night, Hank.

Hank.

Rise and shine. It's breakfast.

Come on. For real?

Everyone at the KC ranch starts with a good breakfast.

It's a ranch rule.

KC?

Feet on the floor. The cows won't keep.

Cows? I thought this was a horse ranch.

What's that smell?

Ugh.

I think something died in my room. It reeks.

Wind shifted. Put you downwind of the barn, see?

That's why my room is on the other side of the house.

Isn't that right, Speedy?

Look, after breakfast, I need to use your computer.

Got about a million e-mails to catch up on. My thumbs can't handle the volume.

You know? Like texting thumbs.

Use my computer all you want as long as it doesn't have to be...

-connected to the Internet. -What? You don't have the Internet?

How do you even exist?

Same way people have in the Great Plains for over 100 years.

-You'll get used to it. -No, I won't. This is temporary.

Soon as Grandma gets better, I'm going back.

From what they told me, your grandma...

She's not gonna be getting any better.

How would you even know?

Hyah!

The crazy horse has done it again. -You know what to do.

-Hey there. You must be-- Carrie!

Why don't you come on back and eat your breakfast?

I didn't say you were excused.

Excused? You're kidding, right? You can't tell me what to do.

I am your father.

I don't even know you.

Well, fine. If you don't eat it, Speedy will.

Morning, boss.

I see you're enjoying life as a family man.

I guess you could say we got off on the wrong foot.

She reminds me of my oldest daughter. She was a feisty little thing. Still is.

She calls me Hank.

What do you expect? You haven't seen her since she was in diapers.

-Well, I should go after her. -Give her time to cool off. She'll come back.

Yeah? How do you know?

Whether she calls you dad or not, you're all that little girl has got.

Get back. What are you thinking?

-I bet she's never even seen a horse before. -Oh, yes, I have.

-On TV. -What did I tell you?

Man, it's the last thing Hank needs with the horse sale coming up.

Better watch your step, little lady. You ain't in the city anymore.

Oh, yeah? Well, let's see you survive one day in Pittsburgh.

Where's my phone?

Oh, n-- No. My phone.

Keep circling him, Kyle. He needs a bit more work.

-Way to go, Aussie. -I'm a kiwi.

Can the kiwi put Flicka in the box stall before she spooks the other horses?

Okay, boss.

I don't know why you keep that mustang. Nobody can ride her.

-It's not worth her weight in feed. Flicka was my niece's horse.

When my brother sold his ranch, I promised to take care of her.

That means he's stuck with her.

Well, that's family for you. They waste your time and your money...

-won't even thank you for the privilege. -Well, ain't that the truth.

I need to clean my phone.

There's a faucet by the box stalls.

Listen, Carrie. I didn't--

-Another great bonding moment, boss. -I'm gonna sock you.

I'm with you. Mm-hm.

If it makes you feel any better, I was forced on Hank too.

[POP MUSIC PLAYING INDISTINCTLY OVER HEADPHONES]

I'm so over you

Easier for me I can come and go

And this time I'll be--

So much for contacting civilization.

There's a snake!

-Did you get bit? -No, but the--

The horse just saved me.

Lift it.

-Snake got her in the tendon. -Carrie, help keep that horse still.

The more she moves, the more the poison moves.

Doc, we got a horse that's been snakebit.

Carrie, come in here. I need you to hold her...

and try to keep her calm while I find a tourniquet.

-Like this? Okay. You got her?

He got her in the tendon. -She's gonna be okay?

I mean, the snake would have bit me if it wasn't for her.

All right. See you in a bit.

Maybe Flicka is good for something after all.

-Flicka? Means beautiful girl.

Your cousin Katy named her.

Easy, girl. Help's on the way.

You're gonna have to clean that wound every couple of hours.

Is this all right?

Don't wrap it too tight.

Give it room to breathe. That leg's gonna keep swelling.

Is she going to be okay?

We're gonna find out in a couple of days if the antivenom worked.

And if it didn't, then we may have to put her down.

Put her down? Why?
