Heartland

Last season on "Heartland"...

You know, it's funny.

I can just be so mad at him, and then....

And there he is, my Dad, out of the blue,

when it really counts.

Dad. I have the best news.

I just got a call from New York. I got the job.

So, are ya gonna take a swing at me if I step in your house?

Just checking.

I'm not going to stop you from going,

but it would be crazy if you left

without knowing how I feel about you.

Scott.

I love you.

And no matter what happens, I just....

What is that suppose to mean, "No matter what happens"?

It's from my father. My real father.

Maybe I'll go see him.

You know, he kind of needs me right now.

Just don't go thinking he's gonna be some kind of hero for ya,

that father of yours.

Ty?

Hey, coach, you in here?

Yo!

Hey, Buddy.

Come on. Come on.

Tell your old man we're looking for him.

~ And at the break of day ~

~ You sank into your dream ~

~ You dreamer ~

~ You dreamer ~

~ You dreamer ~

I couldn't believe it.

They were trying to shoot some of those horses.

It's not right, but there's nothing anyone can do about it.

They'll be sending their cattle up there pretty soon to graze.

There's gotta be some grass left.

Maybe they were just trying to scare them.

No way.

Look at the time.

I'm gonna miss my bus.

I can.

Well, maybe someone will get me a car for my birthday.

The likelihood of that happening is pretty low.

What are we doing for her birthday?

I've got it all planned. It's a surprise.

I hate surprises.

Hey, Caleb.

Hey.

You're starting early.

Nah, day's half done.

Yeah. See ya.

See ya.

What happened?

Got a little banged up at the Amesville rodeo.

Yeah, this steer had a real chip on his shoulder.

Was it worth it?

I got to the window. Made a few hundred bucks.

Didn't we, Shorty?

All right, well, I'll see you.

Yes, you will.

We did it!

I'm so excited.

Congratulations.

Thank you. And thank you so much for co-signing the loan with me, Dad,

I never would have gotten it without you.

We're 50% partners in this venture. I'm with you all the way.

My own corporate equine retreat.

I can't believe it's actually happening.

- Lou. - What's this?

Well, those guys are gonna spend some time spinning their gears.

I want you to have some working capital.

Dad, I can't take this.

You cash that. You cash it.

The sooner you cash it the sooner we're in business.

Thank you.

Okay.

Hey, can I at least take my partner for a coffee?

Yeah. Sure.

Right here.

- Hey, you're Michelle, right? - Call me Mitch.

Can we have coffee, please?

You can have whatever you want.

So, looking good.

I'll say.

What do you take?

Sugar.

Sure. I got plenty of that.

Okay.

So, I worked on a new set last night.

I know we need to get professional drawings made, but....

Wow, Lou.

Think we can afford this?

Oh, yeah. I'll be fine. I'll get some quotes.

Anyway once we get cash flow,

we're gonna need to build a main lodge

with a kitchen and a dining room and all that,

but for now the guests will just have to eat with us.

You talked to your grandpa about this?

Um, well, I haven't really passed everything by Grandpa yet.

Hmm.

Okay, I haven't passed anything by him yet.

I wanted to wait until we got the loan.

But don't worry, he's gonna be fine.

Oh, I'm sure. You know how he is with surprises.

Hey, Scott!

- Hey, babe. - Hey. Hi.

We got the loan.

Awesome! Good for you.

Sugar?

Thanks.

Jack. The worst thing in the world just happened to me.

The absolute worst.

My dad got a job.

I don't think that would be the absolute worst.

He's been out of a job for a bit now, hasn't he?

You don't understand.

He's been hired with the summer rodeo circuit... to sing!

I didn't know he could sing.

He can't.

Well, he thinks he can.

And since my Mom did the booking,

now she thinks that she's his agent/manager.

And she's going on tour with him.

And since they don't think it's a "healthy atmosphere" for me,

guess what they've decided.

Guess!

They're sending me to camp! For the whole summer!

For the whole summer?

Well, that'll be fun.

Fun? Are you kidding? Have you ever been to camp?

Panty raids, ridiculously motivated counselors.

I have one word for you, Jack. Outhouses.

It's a total nightmare.

They can't make me. I'm not going.

So, what's your plan?

To stay here?

I don't need an answer right away, but tomorrow would be good.

I know my parents will be okay with it.

They're just too polite to ask.

Later, Mallory.

Don't forget Amy's surprise party on Saturday.

You're around, right?

I missed one sweet 16. I'm not gonna miss another one.

I'm around.

We need to make a list.

When do you think we should start talking to an architect?

'Cause the sooner we can start building the sooner we can open.

What architect? To build what?

Lou?

You're doing what?

I'm entering the Hudson Rodeo.

Well, not the actual rodeo, but the Queen of the Rodeo contest.

Oh, my God, Soraya.

- It's not a beauty contest. - Yeah, yeah.

- No, it isn't. - Okay.

You have to show great horsemanship,

and you have to....

Make speeches and present yourself as a "Goodwill ambassador."

Don't make fun of me.

I'm not. I think it's great. Really. Go for it!

Miss Fleming, a word.

There's a study tutorial tomorrow morning before class

that I think you shouldn't miss.

Your Earth Sciences' final is coming up,

and you really need to improve your term grade.

- Can you be there? - Yeah, sure.

Good. See that you are.

Sucks to be you.

Hey! Hey!

Hello! Am I invisible or something?

Thank you.

My Beemer's in for servicing.

I'd rather walk than take the bus,

but I didn't want to ruin my new shoes.

Oh, my God. I can't wait for school to be over.

Summer vacation is so great.

Nothing to do but sleep in, shop, hang out.

Who's the new guy working at your place?

Caleb Odell.

More like Caleb Odell-icious.

I saw him in town. So hot.

Hey, have you ever heard from Ty?

I mean, it's so weird, him just leaving like that.

What's it been? Like four months now?

So rude.

But then again, I mean, people like that

just can't be trusted, ya know?

Hey, stop the bus.

Amy?

Stop. I gotta get off here.

Easy.

Easy, boy.

Heartland is a business, Grandpa.

I know. But it also happens to be my home.

- Dad? Where you going? - Hi.

Ah, I'm gonna let the old guy simmer down a bit.

Lou is better at handling him than I am when he's like this.

I'm listening. I heard ya.

Bye.
