Wildfire: The Legend of the Cherokee Ghost Horse (Wildfire)

Sam.

Hey, Sam.

Earth to Samantha.

Sorry.

I must of zoned out.

Hey, Sam.

Wasn't your mom supposed to be here by now?

Oh, yeah.

Hi, can I get this too?

Oh, absolutely. Let's just throw it in there, here you go.

Thank you.

Here's your dad's card. Thank you so much.

Thank you. Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Scooter!

Dad?

I thought Mom was going to pick me up.

Yeah, I was in the neighborhood, so I waved her off.

You mind?

Not at all.

What are you and your posse up to?

Checking out clothes for school.

That sounds expensive.

Bed on it.

Junior year in high school, huh?

Wow.

I know. Getting all pretty excited though.

Not bad.

Listen, you know, it's my closing tomorrow.

I want to do something a little different.

Instead of Taco Tuesday. How about we make it teriyaki?

Sounds yummy.

As long as they have chicken fried rice for Austin.

Sounds good.

Cool.

Looks good?

Austin, we have your favorite.

How many we got in there? They only gave us two.

Here, is this good?

Let me see.

Okay, like a pencil.

Write like this, like a pencil.

Take one hand, you write like that, right?

Yeah.

And you stick the other one right in here.

Sorry, not a lot, not really hungry.

I'm not really hungry, Sherry.

I got too much on my mind.

Well, no business talk at the table.

Dinner.

Here we go.

So how was school?

I need some of that orange chicken.

Yes, I'll give you some.

Good?

Yep.

What'd you do today?

There you go.

Nothing.

Kind of messy.

Math, unfortunately.

Math?

Mm-hmm.

My worst subject.

Mine too.

What do you mean?

Math is the best.

Thank you, thank you.

How am I related to you both?

Take after me, I guess.

You take the looks from your mother

and the smarts from me.

I'm bad at math.

So you better not...

Oh, no, no, no.

Not true.

How's it going?

Uh, it's that start-ups are never easy.

But somebody's got to pay for all those new clothes.

You bet.

Hi, Dennis.

Hey, Sam.

You look all grown up.

When was the last time I saw you?

About two days ago.

At my ballgame.

Oh, well, urr, you look kind of small out there in the outfield.

Hey, Daddy.

'Night, baby.

Good night, Mr. Stevens.

Good night.

Get that. Right There.

How is it going?

Oh, you know, it's a big step.

Equal parts excitement and terror.

Well, we are closing the contract

with Zuni Capital in the morning.

It's only for 90 days.

This mortgage assignment.

We'll be positive cash flow after then.

When Zuni sells the app, we'll be rolling in dough.

You know what they say.

For richer or poorer, for better or worse?

I'll take richer.

You're a good man, partner.

I know. Try get some sleep

before the closing tomorrow.

I just might go with you.

That'd be great.

Huh.

I hope you do.

I will then.

See you tomorrow.

Uh, good night, honey.

Good night.

Are you kidding me?

It be nice if you come too.

Well, I mean, you need her advice.

No. I've got enough...

Oh! Come on now.

Morning, Scooter.

Morning, Dad. Off to work?

Yep.

Need to ride somewhere?

Not yet. I'm not meeting the girls till later.

Not more shopping?

Of course more shopping.

Ugh.

(Laughing) (Laughing) (Laughing) (Laughing) (Laughing)

I'll see you later. Catch.

Love you.

You have everything?

Yeah. Hopefully.

Hopefully?

Where's Mom?

She's with Dad.

They'll be closing.

I guess that means you're making breakfast for me then?

Yeah, right. It's about time you

make your own breakfast.

What? You know all I make is cereal.

How about it? You're on your own.

Watch out near Plano, though.

There's a rollover accident and it's

backing up traffic all the way to McKinney.

It's also a good idea...

Especially at the off-ramps, you're 21st to 85.

Hello?

Is this Susan Collins?

Yes. This is her.

This is Officer Harley Abrams of the Texas Highway Patrol.

Are you the sister of Sheri Collins Nichols?

Yes. Yes, I am.

I wanted to call you first as next of kin.

I'm so sorry to bring you this news.

Hello?

Hi, Samantha. It's your aunt Susan.

Hi aunt Susan. How are you?

Not well, honey. Um...

This isn't a happy call.

Listen, Betty. I'm really sorry for your loss.

Thank you. Thank you.

We're sure going to miss Parker and Sherry.

Their absence is...

Well, it's... it's devastating.

Listen, uh...

Here's my card.

If ever you need anything, anything at all,

please don't hesitate to call me or email me.

Hear now?

Thank you, Dennis.

You're a very kind man.

You're welcome.

I guess I'd best be going now.

Take care, Austin.

Sam.

Bye.

Good night.

I miss them too.

I miss you too.

Well, I guess Dennis was right.

The business is leveraged to the hilt.

What does that mean?

It means that your parents

used all of their money and assets

to start up a new business.

But they didn't have time to get it going.

So that means there's no money left?

Sweetie, I... I can see what they were

doing and... and how it did make sense.

But after the accident, everything changed.

And now there is nothing left.

Maybe the bank can help.

No. No, the bank won't help, Samantha. I mean, they can't.

There is no collateral.

But the house...

Yeah, well, it was mortgage for the start up.
