Nice shiner.
My first, actually. I think I earned it.
I remember everything. The explosion was so loud it shattered windows and rattled the whole house. Then it dawned on me what had happened. No one said a word. We didn't need to. All we could think to do was run. There are no words for what we felt. What was in our hearts. But they never came home.
Shouldn't you be in school, son?
I'm not your son. I'm just walking. It's not crime to walk, is it?
No, but truancy is a crime, young man--
Gabe! There you are.
Boy should be in class. Tell me, do you normally allow your students to wander around the streets during school hours?
Gabe was running an errand for me, if you must know.
[pause] An errand?
Yes! School business. Thank you for your concern, constable, but we are perfectly fine.
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
Following [Gabe].
Me too.
How'd you know?
Know what?
That he's the one?
The one what?
You don't know, do you?
Of course I know!
You don't know why you're here in many ways.
I'm here because I had an instinct that Gabe was going somewhere that he didn't want anyone to know about and that he might need help. Yes, help. He seemed troubled.
Instinct is for Mounties, not for teachers. Let me handle this.
Students are for teachers, not Mounties.
You're recruiting more miners? You got 'em.
Respectfully, ladies, is this some kind of joke?
No joke, Mr. Gowen. You need workers. We need roofs over our children's heads.
You lost your husbands. What happens to your children if they lose you? Who puts roofs over their heads then?
Mr. Gowen, we're offering to do this with our eyes open. And we're counting the cost. We have to try. Coal Valley is our home.
All we're asking for is a chance. Everybody knows you still have shafts blocked. Tell us which one you want open. If we have it cleared and timbered between now and the evictions--
You get to stay in your homes? What happens if you don't?
We leave quietly. We'll even give the row houses a proper spring cleaning before we vacate.
You have two weeks. As well, none of the men who work for me may help you. I will not compromise their safety.
Fair enough.
...
I'm flabbergasted that you agreed to this.
We both know that they won't last more than a week before they quit.
Florence, you're back!
Well, if little miss princess here can give it her best, so can the rest of us.
What do you mean rest of us?
...
I'm not sure how to say this but, all the women are going into the mine.
You mean all the widows.
No, all the women....They're plannin' on workin' round-the-clock shifts.
[narration] When my father saw me off on my journey west, he told me he hoped I would find what God had shaped me for, and then give my whole heart to it.
I never got to thank you for leaving me that note....Was it really necessary to leave it on my forehead?
You were snoring; I didn't want to wake you.
Heathen.
What?!
You're late. Only heathens arrive late to a church service.
Uncouth.
Me, uncouth?
Only the uncouth whisper during a sermon.
Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me what this can is.
Maybe, not sure.
Well, take your best guess.
It's whale oil.
Really?
That's my best guess.
I can come back at a more convenient time.
Nonsense. With three children no time is convenient.
Jack! Wait a moment! One of my students, Rosaleen Sullivan, she will not speak, she simply will not say a word. I've been working with her, and I believe she was on the verge of a breakthrough when we saw a man, Wendell Backus--
Slow down for a second. Big city folk rattle a mile a minute. I'm just a country boy who needs to understand this.
I'm concerned for one of my students.
Rosaleen Sullivan who doesn't speak and why do you think Mr. Backus has something to do with that?
When she saw him, he stared at her, and it was like her blood froze. It just happened again. She saw him...and she just crawled back into her shell.
...
Well, how old is she?
She's only eight.
OK. I'll talk to him.
I raised my hand...but I swear I never hit her, never. I put the fear of God in her that day.
No, you put the fear of a very flawed man into her. Not God.
I'm sorry, Parson, but I don't speak Bible.
You have a wonderful eye for treasures, Albert.
