What are you doing?
I'm starting a fire. I read a book on camping, and this is how it's done.
[pause] You know, I have matches in my saddlebag.
Why didn't you say so?
It's more fun watching you.

What are you doing?
I'm starting a fire. I read a book on camping, and this is how it's done.
[pause] You know, I have matches in my saddlebag.
Why didn't you say so?
It's more fun watching you.
You tell me where it is, and I might be able to get you out of here.
And how do I know you won't shoot me in the back?
'Cause I'm a Mountie, and I keep my word. And if I kill a man I want to look him in the eyes.
The community is stronger when we look out for each other.
It feels like you're a different person when you're in Hamilton. I'm not sure you know who you are yet.
Now you sound exactly like my father.
Elizabeth, the woman that pumped water on that homestead is not the same person who has a servant set out clothes for her everyday.
Jack! Can't you see it's all part of me?! I enjoyed living on the homestead. And I enjoy living in a big house in Hamilton. You just won't accept me for who I am.
You got that backwards.
You really believe that?
...
This isn't about wanting you to be something you're not. And this isn't about wanting you to fit into Hamilton. And this isn't about the fact that we come from two different worlds.
Then what's it about?
Jack, do you remember when you told me that Mounties don't get married? That if they wanted you to have a wife, they would have issued you one? I think they might be right. When I saw that man point that gun at you, it was like I couldn't breathe. It was like my whole world was in slow motion. What if he'd shot you?
He didn't.
Not this time. It scared me, Jack. It scares me to think that one day you might not come home. That what happened to your father could happen to you. I need to be able to sleep at night knowing you're safe.
I will be safe.
You can't guarantee that.
No one can. But I'm good at what I do. And I'm not afraid to face my fears.
And I would never want to change that about you.
That right there? You saying that? That means the world to me.
But Jack, I don't know if I'm brave enough to spend my life with someone as brave as you.
Why are you doing this?
Doing what?
Pushing us apart.
I'm just trying to be honest with you. Jack, don't you see? I'm trying to tell you that I'm afraid of losing you. I'm afraid you're gonna die.
Nobody knows what the future's gonna bring. All I know is what I feel for you. The question is what do you feel for me?
May I? Well, it seems fine to me.
It's the other knee.
Oh. Sorry.
It's crazy. I spent so much time worrying about what could happen to you. Look what happened to me.
Well you just proved that being a schoolteacher is just as dangerous as being a Mountie.
Storm's passed. We can head back to town if you're up for it.
Can we stay here, just a little while longer?
Yeah. What for?
In here, it's just the two of us. Out there, everything is...complicated.
I know exactly what you mean. But whatever challenges we have to face out there, I believe that we can take them on together.
It really feels like we've been given a second chance today.
And I don't want to waste it. [pause] Especially now that I've seen your knees.
Jack!
I love you, Elizabeth Thatcher.
I love you, too.
Look, I know I can seem so glamorous and larger than life! But underneath, I'm just--
Rosemary? It's OK. I know.
That was the best fish I've ever had! What is your secret?
Beer.
I can count on you to pitch in?
Pitch in with what?
I made a list.
Of course you did. [pause] This is not a list, Rosemary, this is the Magna Carta!
Have you made any New Year's resolutions yet?
Have you?
Mmm hmm. To be patient, to be kind. Not to envy, but to trust.
First Corinthians.
...
It'll be a new year. This could be a new start for us! Not to rush, but to get things right.
Yeah, that's probably a good idea, not to rush.
I think so.
To proceed cautiously.
Not too cautiously.
To take our time.
And enjoy the time we take?
Well, I'm all for enjoying things.
I trust the church is gonna be in tip-top shape for New Year's?
I'll let God know there's gonna be an inspection.
Cody? Where are you going?
Back to camp, but I'll come to see Becky before dark.
It's awfully cold outside. Wouldn't you rather stay here with your sister where it's nice and warm?
I only have three pennies. How much would it cost?
Well, I'm a businesswoman, so maybe we could come up with some sort of arrangement.
I'm pretty good at chores!
Well, maybe you could do some chores in exchange for room and board.
Could I earn enough for apple pie at dinner?
Can you make your bed?
Sure can!
Then pie is possible.
Good morning, Miss Thatcher!
Good morning, Constable Thornton.
Whatcha got in the bag?
Nothing. Just something I need to have repaired at the mercantile.
Oh, something I can fix?
No, it's nothing, really.
It wouldn't have anything to do with Rip, would it?
Elizabeth reluctantly opens her bag and pulls out a chewed shoe.
Your shoe. I think it's time he came home.
No! That would be admitting defeat!
Oh, and Thatchers never admit defeat.
