00:00 - Previously on "When Calls the Heart."
00:02 Cunningham has withdrawn from the governor's race.
00:04 - They're looking for a new candidate to run against Balfour.
00:07 - What do you say, Bouchard?
00:08 - They're the only one who can beat him.
00:09 - You know, there's an injunction
00:10 on all water diversion projects in the valley.
00:12 - We're quite aware.
00:13 And when Governor Balfour is re-elected
00:14 and the injunction is lifted,
00:15 we'll continue our work where we left off.
00:17 - Mr. Bouchard, could you tell us why you think
00:20 you would do a better job than the incumbent?
00:22 - Current Governor Balfour,
00:23 he wants to destroy small and vibrant towns,
00:25 so I don't want to run.
00:26 I need to be able to run.
00:27 - I'm not going to run.
00:28 I want to destroy vibrant towns,
00:30 so I don't want to run.
00:31 I have to run.
00:32 - You're bound for a bigger stage.
00:34 And I think in your heart, you know that.
00:36 - Maybe these paths are meant to be.

00:49 There are reminders of Lucas everywhere
00:52 and of how he stood up for Hope Valley
00:54 and how he's bravely taking on
00:56 the people who want to destroy our town.
00:59 It hasn't been easy,
01:01 but as hard as it was to say goodbye to Lucas,
01:04 for me and for little Jack,
01:06 there are also reminders of why we had to stay.
01:09 - Little Jack, come see the tag poles.
01:11 - Oh, boy, can I?
01:12 - Yes, you may.
01:14 ♪ ♪
01:18 - All right, so the poles open
01:21 at 7 a.m. on the dot,
01:23 so we'll definitely want to be there
01:24 just a few minutes beforehand.
01:26 - I can't believe the election is here already.
01:28 - Oh, thank you.
01:29 Uh, now, Emily is going to have Goldie.
01:32 She said she's more than happy to have little Jack as well.
01:36 And now, dare I ask,
01:39 how are you doing, given tomorrow?
01:42 - Lucas and I were supposed to be getting married.
01:45 There's no need to tiptoe. I'm fine.
01:48 I'm sad, but it makes it much easier
01:50 knowing I'm coming home to little Jack
01:52 with you and Lee next door and Goldie.
01:56 Our baptism is right around the corner.
01:58 - Don't you worry about that. We have everything covered.
02:00 In fact, Lee and Joseph have taken care of all the details.
02:03 All anyone should be thinking about right now
02:06 is this election.
02:07 - I know there are items for me on that list,
02:09 and I am just as invested as anyone.
02:12 - Good for you.
02:15 - Welcome, everyone.
02:17 Tomorrow is election day.
02:20 Does everyone know what that means?
02:23 [soft music]
02:25 - What's going on with all of you this morning?
02:28 Are you still feeling sleepy?
02:30 - Yes, Opal.
02:32 - The election means everyone's supposed to vote
02:34 for Mr. Bouchard to save the town.
02:39 But what if we don't like Mr. Bouchard?
02:43 - Why don't you like Mr. Bouchard?
02:46 You were supposed to get married, and now you're not.
02:50 - Aren't you mad at him?
02:52 And shouldn't we be mad at him too?
02:55 - No. Of course not.
02:59 Mr. Bouchard is working very hard to protect our town,
03:03 and he's a good man.
03:05 I've always thought that, and--and I still do.
03:08 - Then why aren't you getting married?
03:11 [soft music]
03:14 - Sometimes people realize they just aren't meant to be married.
03:18 Sometimes they're just meant to be friends.
03:21 - Good. I like Mr. Bouchard.
03:23 He helped us get our own time at the hot springs.
03:26 - And he's gonna help a lot more people if he's elected governor.
03:29 Especially Hope Valley.
03:32 But I want to thank all of you for being protective
03:36 and for letting me know you care.
03:39 Now, since we are discussing voting,
03:44 shall we learn about how an election works?

05:37 - Henry Gowen?

05:43 You saw him when he was singing to her.
05:45 He's probably the last person to admit this,

05:59 Look, I'll be the first to acknowledge
06:01 that Henry has had his troubles,
06:03 but he is the wiser because of them.
06:07 - Wisdom is something you want in a godfather.
06:10 - Exactly.
06:13 - On the other hand, he can be so cantankerous.
06:17 - So cantankerous.
06:19 But maybe with Goldie in his life,
06:21 it'll inspire him to be less so.
06:27 - Maybe he needs Goldie just as much as she needs him.
06:31 - Yeah. Maybe he does.
06:35 - Hmm.
06:37 - Well, I haven't seen much of you lately.
06:39 - Yeah, it's all these injunctions
06:41 against Union City Holdings.
06:42 - Gotta make sure they're not digging trenches
06:44 where they're not supposed to be.
06:45 - Well, that'll all change on election day if Lucas wins.
06:47 But of course, what we know about Belfort and Montague,
06:50 he's gonna have a fight on his hands.
06:52 - Yeah, I'd say so.
06:53 - So any other reason you've been out of town so much?
06:56 - No. I'm just doing my job.
06:58 - Where are you headed now?
07:00 - Benson Hillsway.
07:01 I got a report that there's some Pinkertons up there.
07:03 Probably Montague hires.
07:06 - What are you doing?
07:09 - Coming with you.
07:10 I've been sitting around town waiting for the polls to open.
07:13 Besides, the last time you got mixed up with Pinkertons,

21:17 - I thought you had them.
21:18 - Why on earth would I have the ballots?
21:19 - I don't have them. - I have them.
21:22 - It all comes down to these two names.
21:28 - A simple decision.
21:30 - Ready? - Mm-hmm.
21:33 - Not with the buttons.
21:37 - Hello.
21:41 Here is your ballot, Mrs. Nevin,
21:43 and you can vote right there through the curtains.

21:59 - Look at it. I got the perfect spot.
22:01 - Okay. - I'll be right with you.
22:03 - I'll take you over there in just a minute.
22:05 Now here's your bill. - Oh, my.
22:07 - I'll be right with you.
22:08 - You ever seen it this busy?
22:10 - Hickam gave my booth away.
22:11 - Here's your key for you, and I'll bring your suitcase up
22:13 as soon as I can.
22:14 Oh, thank you for coming.
22:15 - Michael, the place is really buzzing.
22:17 You must be cashing in on all the election business, huh?
22:20 - Tell me about it.
22:21 I gave the staff time off to vote.
22:23 Of course, the line--
22:24 - All the way to Abigail's we saw.
22:26 - Abigail's. Oh, no, no, no, no.
22:28 We're supposed to be meeting May for our date.

22:53 - This line is moving slower than molasses on a cold day.
23:00 They're still halfway down the street.
23:02 At this rate, we're gonna lose half of these voters by nightfall.
23:05 - It's taking forever in there.
23:07 - There's only two options.
23:09 What can be so complicated?
23:11 - Rosemary, the curtains from the ball.
23:14 - Elizabeth, this is no time to be talking about redecorating.
23:16 - That's not what I meant.

23:37 I waited almost an hour.
23:39 - Well, that doesn't sound like Mike at all.
23:41 Something important must be keeping him.
23:43 - Hmm, like working the election? Running the saloon?
23:46 - I think he made himself very clear he's not interested.
23:49 I'll just stop pushing it.
23:51 When does Mike ever make himself clear?
23:56 - Clear as mud.
23:58 - And there's your button.
24:04 - Looks like we did it.
24:06 And well done with the voting booths, Rosemary.
24:08 They worked like a charm.
24:10 You got all but 22 people voted.

24:14 Governor Balfour won by a margin of less than a thousand votes last time.
24:18 We all know how that turned out.
24:20 - Polls close in one hour.
24:22 - Oh, my goodness!
24:24 - What are you gonna do, Rosemary?
24:26 You can't force these people to vote.

24:30 - Looks like I'll be dusting off my elocution expertise.
24:34 - You'd be surprised what a stern talking-to by yours truly can accomplish.
24:39 - I'm glad I voted.
24:41 - How are you going to identify all of the non-voters?
24:43 - Yes, how are we going to find them?
24:45 - You'll know who isn't wearing a button.
24:48 - Exactly.

28:13 I wouldn't be surprised if she never speaks to me again.

28:44 Okay, here's what you need to do.
28:46 You have to tell her how you feel.

30:48 of forgiveness and healing,
30:51 by the guidance and example of her parents,
30:54 Rosemary and Lee,
30:56 and godparents, Elizabeth and Henry.
31:00 Goldie will know where to seek help when she needs it
31:03 and how to give it when it's asked of her.
31:06 And if she falls, like we all do,
31:09 she will find forgiveness.
31:11 Forgiveness is our path towards grace.
31:15 When we ask for forgiveness, we find redemption.
31:20 And when we accept forgiveness, we find peace.
