02x02 - A Horse of A Different Colour Part 2

[bunniefuu]

CarolePreviously on "The Saddle Club..."

Where's the fire?

It's not a fire. Andrew's drowning!

Out of the way!

Who's Andrew?

He's in the swamp.

It's probably for the best

I've been away for this past week.

Why's that?

Because Lisa and Stevie needed the time

to plan my birthday party.

Where's Andrew?

He's OK. Look!

Andrew's a dog?

Well, he's not a cat.

We rode all this way for a dog?

Danny, did Stevie or Lisa mention anything to you

about Saturday?

DannySaturday...

Saturday...

The day after Friday.

Like what?

Like, if they were doing anything special?

Not really.

Same old, same old.

MaxPine Hollow is going to play host

to one of the finest event horses in France.

His name is Hugo,

and he's out of quarantine today.

It's strange.

He doesn't feel like a trained horse,

let alone a champion.

Maybe he's having trouble

moving in a different time zone?

He's having trouble moving at all.

MaxHas anyone seen my boots?

Size pull-ons.

I can guess what's happened to them.

Really?

They've been stolen.

What?

Is this a private fight, or can anyone join in?

Nice Game Boy, Scooter.

Cool, eh?

It's not fair, Melanie.

Give me a turn.

[Hugo whinnies]

CaroleHow it happened doesn't matter now.

Just tell us which way he was heading.

VeronicaMy wallet.

It's OK, Hugo, we'll get you out.

LisaWe'll have to get Max and Red.

We can't leave him now.

Look how far down he's sunk.

He could break a leg.

This is all Melanie's fault.

It doesn't matter whose fault it is now.

What are we going to do?

[Hugo whinnies]

CaroleCome on, Hugo.

That's a boy.

Come on.

Come on.

Try, boy.

Come on, fella.

[Hugo whinnies]

That's the way. Come on.

[Hugo whinnies]

VeronicaSo if you didn't put it there,

maybe it just walked there by itself, did it?

That's enough, Veronica.

Let Scooter tell us his story.

I can't wait.

Veronica!

I haven't got a story.

I mean...

I don't know-- I've never seen it before!

I've been watching you,

and every time you come anywhere near the hayloft,

you act suspicious.

Guilty conscience?

Come on, Hugo,

Come on.

[Hugo whinnying]

Come on.

Try, boy.

One more foot.

Good boy.

Come on.

Please.

You can do it.

Good boy, Hugo.

Yes!

You made it!

There's something else going on.

[Sighs]

I was making this for Carole's birthday.

I wanted it to be a surprise.

There's just got to be

another explanation, Veronica.


Well, I'd like to know what it is.

Wouldn't you, Max?

The money's still here.

So?

MaxSo...

You said Scooter bought the Game Boy with the money,

but, look, he didn't,

did he?

Don't interrogate me.

I've done nothing wrong.

I'd say accusing someone falsely

is pretty wrong.

We've got you home and hosed,

haven't we, Hugo?

[Hugo nickers]

What are you looking at?

Is that mud?

No, his markings have gone.

Gone?

His white socks must have been paint.

What's going on?

[Hugo grunts]

This is not Hugo.

He's been substituted. This is a ring-in.

But why?

Because the real Hugo's so valuable.

But how did they do it?

That's what I intend to find out.

I'm going to the quarantine office

to check out what's happened.

RedOf course I believe you.

So does Stevie, and so does Max.

Huh, are you sure about Max?

Well, Max has got a lot on his mind,

with the new renovations and now Hugo.

What's going on, then?

Look, whatever it is,

it'll come out in the end.

Somebody's trying to frame me!

No, don't talk crazy.

[Exhales]

Veronica looks down on me.

On me, too.

What's her problem?

She thinks everybody's against her.

But it's the other way around!

She's against us.

I tried to tell her that once.

And what happened?

She said that just proved that I was against her.

[Laughs] Yeah.

Did you find him?

I went and checked the paperwork.

It all seemed in order at this end.

Mind you, they wouldn't let me

look around the place.

Maybe there's just been a mix-up,

and the real Hugo will turn up.

You're going to have to call the police.

Not quite yet.

I'll call the owners in France

to make sure everything went OK at their end.

Dorothee Doutey is arriving next week.

Dorothee Doutey?

Isn't she the French junior champion?

She's coming here to Pine Hollow?

Mm-hmm.

And her first question will be:

"Where is my horse?"

Well, it must have been that quarantine guy.

I mean, who else would it be?

It's a mystery.

Maybe Hugo never left France.

That's what Max is on the phone about.

It's awful!

Maybe...

I mean, just maybe,

Scooter is behind this, as well.

Give it a rest!

Do you ever get tired

of being wrong?

It's not Scooter!

And the French champion is coming to Pine Hollow.

I wonder why.

I suppose she hasn't heard that you're here.

[All laughing]

Good morning, Starlight.

You haven't forgotten today is my birthday,

have you?

Of course you haven't.

I just can't believe Stevie and Lisa have.

Hey, Stevie, Lisa.

Great day.

Stevie's had this brilliant idea.

You'll probably think it's too much.

No, it's such a special day,

I'm up for anything.

We're going to ask Max

if we can form a search party

and check out the district.


W-what?

It's not as if we're doing anything else,

is it?

No.

Let's go find Max.

Come on, Max.

Fretting isn't going to help.

How can a horse just vanish?

It isn't your fault that he was stolen.

You did nothing wrong.

I just wish there was something I could do.

[Sighs]

Max, stop blaming yourself.

If only I could get in there.

Get in where?

Pur Sang, and search the place for Hugo.

BrianNow, girls,

you do realize how expensive it would be

to send your horses to Europe?

Well, of course we don't know exactly,

but that's why we're here,

for a quote on the cost.

BrianRight.

Well, it would cost you

thousands and thousands of dollars.

First, you've got your air freight,

your road transport,

your quarantine, et cetera, et cetera.

We all have part-time jobs.

When do you plan to compete?

In the spring.

Ah, well,

you've left your rung too late.

You do realize how far away Europe is,

don't you?

Of course we do.

We all major in geography.

We mean for next spring, of course.

Well, girls, I really think

you're in way over your heads.

Can I get a drink?

Mm-hmm.

Well, we have lots of money.

StevieStacks.

We work very long hours.

Mmm, I thought you just said

you only work part-time?

Yes.

We work very long hours

in the afternoon, of course.

Girls, I'm sorry--

[Grunts]

What was in that water?

She must be allergic to it.

Well, I don't know, it's just bottled water.

But where's it from?

It's from a spring.

A spring?

Are you saying it's from a spring?

Well, it's natural mineral water.

It's got minerals in it?

Which ones?

I don't know.

Minerals are good for you, aren't they?

They don't look very good for her, do they?

Hey, get back here!

Lisa!

Are you all right?

Who--who said that?

Don't tell me she's blind, as well.

It's me, Stevie.

H-how do you feel?

The agony is growing less.

Thank heaven.

Where--where is she?

Who?

Her.

The other one.

She probably went to call an ambulance.

Don't move.

[Gate squeaks]

Ugh!

Well, get after her.

She's only a girl.

I'm not just a girl,

I'm a Saddle Club girl.

Ugh!

Ohh!

Ugh!

[Grunts]

Ohh!

She's only a girl.

Yeah...

[Horses whinny]

And then Lisa goes,

"Who--who said that?"

Classic!

But there's no sign of Hugo, Carole?

No sign.

Well, we tried.


So, what are you guys going to do

for the rest of the day?

I might go see if Phil's arrived.

I'll go do Prancer's stall.

Don't mind me.

I'll just hang by myself.

Whatever.

No, I'll tag along.

My makeup purse has been stolen.

VeronicaSo, what have you got to say about that?

I just bought a new candy kiss lip liner

and blusher, too.

Well?

So you think Scooter's into makeup now?

Who will ever understand the criminal mind?

Max is going to hear about this.

Everybody, you are hereby invited

to the world premiere of my film.

Please hurry.

Seats are filling fast.

ScooterI reckon the renovations are looking good.

What do you reckon?

I thought we'd lost you to cross-county for good.

No, this is where the action is.

And how.

So what did Max say?

VeronicaHe's not there.

But I'll tell him as soon as he gets back.

MelanieAs you know,

I have been making a video--

We.

I mustn't forget my assistant.

We have been making a videotape

for a school assignment.

Now, I have edited--

We.

We have edited.

We have now edited it.

So without further ado,

I would like to welcome you

to the world premiere

of "Eye on Pine Hollow."

[Applause]

[Horses hooves clop]

[Horse whinnies]

[Girls laughing]

Want some?

VeronicaThis is just so juvenile.

So juvenile.

Now we're coming to the quality stuff.

Got your Oscar speech

written, Veronica?

How's that, Melanie?

And our stables are famous

all over the world.

Just today...

You must be so jealous of Scooter, Kristi.

Of scooter? Why?

He puts just the right amount

of candy kiss blusher on.

Don't you think?

You wouldn't even know

he's wearing it.

Who says he is?

Veronica does.

Don't you, Veronica?

Andrew, what have you been up to?

Andrew!

Andrew, you little thief!

[Andrew whimpers]

Elizabeth, on tapeHalf-moon over "A".

Deborah, on tapeHe looks so good

after all that traveling.

Max, on tapeCan't beat good breeding.

ScooterAndrew?

Where are you?

Andrew!

What a riot!

You'll turn yourself in now,

if you know what's good for you.

[Andrew barking]

You can run, but you can't hide!

[Andrew whimpering]

Your life of crime is over.

You let me take the rap,

you dirty dog!

I reckon he's clever.

And after I saved your life, too.

Here's your invitation.

Andrew snaffled it.

Veronica, I think you owe somebody an apology.

You trained him to do your dirty work,

didn't you, Scooter?

[All groan]

Why's he checking and double-checking

Hugo's fetlocks?

Because he's worried that the white paint

might have rubbed off.

LisaHe knows about it because he did it.

Exactly.


It was the delivery guy all along.

MelanieThis isn't even a good bit.

It's not fair.

Watch my tape properly.

Our tape!

Hang on, Melanie.

This is important.

The driver must have the real Hugo

hidden somewhere.

Can you make out the address

on the trailer?

I don't know why you're playing this

over and over.

This isn't even my best work.

It's at the end of Dry Valley,

isn't it?

Let's get Stevie.

I don't know why I bother.

We!

[Horse grunts]

[Horse snorts]

[Truck rumbles]

Do you think the guy's dangerous?

It's against .

, including our horses.

You're trespassing.

Where's Hugo?

Who's Hugo?

As if you didn't know.

Hang on...

Hugo!

I delivered that horse to Pine--Pine Hollow.

You delivered a horse

with no marks on his legs.

The real Hugo has white socks.

We know you switched him.

Is Hugo in there?

GusWell, have a look of them.

Do they look like French Thoroughbreds to you?

They're all roughies.

You'd be pushing it

getting a couple of hundred for them.

CaroleLisa,

can you please open the gate?

Stop right where you are, missy.

Did you hear me?

PhilI don't think so.

GusHey! Get away from there.

You watch where you're going!

CaroleHello, Hugo.

You need a good brush, don't you?

I told you!

Uh, that's not Hugo.

His name is, uh, Rocky.

Lift, Starlight.

And lift, Hugo.

Walk on, Starlight. Walk on, Hugo.

Come on.

Good girl. Good girl.

Come on.

And halt, Starlight.

Halt, Hugo.

I wouldn't call him a roughie.

LisaI'd call him a pretty good

dressage horse myself.

Stop right where you are.

We're taking Hugo back to our stables.

Not if I can help it.

Now get off my property!

[Hugo grunts]

Hey! Hey!

Get away from me!

I'm not scared of you!

Aah!

[Hugo whinnies and neighs]

[All chuckling and giggling]

Now, that's what I call a champion.

[Hooves clopping]

Max,

I'd like to introduce you to the real Hugo.

Hugo, this is Max.

Am I glad to see you, mister.

Or should I say monsieur?

[Chuckles]

Good work.

StevieWhat a day!

I'm glad it's over.

I couldn't take any more excitement.

Could you, Carole?

I don't know. Try me.

Actually, I want a word with you, Carole,

in my office.

[Horses whinny]

Now, Carole,

thank you for all your efforts,

but I need to discuss

a rather disturbing phone call I had

from the guy at Pur Sang.

Yes, it was us.

He was really angry.


But we didn't do any damage.

Well, not physical, but...

I think he's going to need some counseling.

What was all that about spring water?

You'll have to ask Stevie and Lisa.

OK, I will.

[Sighs] If anybody needs me,

I'll be at the mall,

buying myself a birthday present.

MaxOK.

Oh, before you do,

could you go and clean up the lounge?

It's--it's a real mess.

What?

Then the rest of the day's your own.

Do you want me to wash the ceiling, too, Max?

AllHappy birthday, Carole!

Surprise! Surprise!

You should see your face!
