During the journey they talked a lot. Due to her pregnancy, Victoria was afraid of her father who respected old Mexican tradition. Thus, Paul proposed to pose as her husband to help her face her dad. Paul was not intended to cheat on his wife by pretending to be Victoria's husband. However, when Paul decided to come back to his home and left Victoria, he found his wife cheating on him.

wait for my signal.

Alberto...

Listen.

You watch her window.

When the light comes on...

...you are saved!

Just watch the window.

He seems to love her.

Maybe...

...l've been too tough on him.

What's the matter?

Don't have too much fun.

- Our bus leaves in 10 minutes.

- Thanks.

The Aragons!

The Aragons are coming!

Hello, how are you?

- Marie Jose.

- Padre.

I will now recite

the Blessing of the Harvest.

We thank you, Lord, for bestowing

on us the bounty of thy harvest.

We ask that each life here be blessed

with the full measure of love...

...health and happiness...

...that those who acknowledge God

justly deserve. Amen.

Amen.

Excellent!

Your serenade was very beautiful.

Will you toast with me?

What do we toast to?

To "what if."

To "what if."

Father Filipo...

...may I introduce Paul Sutton,

my new son-in-law.

As you can see, a bona fide war hero.

- He helped bring in the harvest.

- Papa.

What? I can't be proud?

- A blessed surprise. Congratulations!

- Thank you, Father.

I gave her First Communion.

- Thought I'd give her in marriage.

- And you shall.

City hall is not a proper place

to take your wedding vows.

Not for my only daughter.

Tonight... Listen to me!

Tonight, I give my daughter's

hand in marriage...

...before the eyes of God.

And I will take it

as a personal insult...

...if you all do not show up.

You are all invited!

- Why are you doing this?

- A man can change his mind, can't he?

- We must tell them.

- No.

I have to tell them.

I'm not scared now.

Here.

For the baby.

A little present.

- What did you get it for?

- Courage under fire.

Paul Sutton...

...you are the most honorable man

I have ever known.

- Where to, soldier?

- San Francisco.

I can get you as far as San Rafael.

Climb in.

Thanks.

- What you doing around here?

- Walking.

Walking?

In the clouds.

Welcome back to earth.

- Who's there?

- It's me.

- You read them.

- Yes, Paul...

Betty?

Listen, it wasn't gonna work,

for either of us.

Had I read the letters sooner...

We hardly knew each other.

We want different things.

Who is it, Betty?

I don't even like dogs!

It's not what it appears to be.

- Armisted?

- Paul, listen to me.

It would have never worked for me.

- I'd be miserable!

- I came back...

- You have a gun?

- I was ready.

- Don't do anything crazy.

- I'll leave. Don't hit me!

I'm not gonna hit you.

Betty...

We could still be friends.

Friends?

I thought an annulment

would be easiest.

You just have to sign it.

I'm sorry, Paul.

Paul, are you all right?

Yeah.

I'm fine!

Mr. Aragon?

Mr. Aragon.

I owe you an apology, sir.

- What I did was wrong.

- Get off my land!

My intentions were to protect her.

- Stay away from her.

- I can't.

She's like the air to me.

I'm asking you for her hand

in marriage.

You are already married,

you son of a b*tch!

- My gun!

- Don Alberto?

My gun! Now!

My marriage wasn't meant to be.

It was a mistake. But it's over.

- Annulled.

- You deceived me!

In my own house! In my own bed!

Stay away from her!

I want to be with her

forever and take care of her.

- Jose, my gun!

- Victoria!

Paul?

You made me a fool to everyone.

- It's not your child she carries!

- It will be if she'll have me.

I'll see you dead first!

Paul!

Stop! I love him!

I love him!

My God!

Papa!

What have I done?

Drunk!

Please!

Let me go!

Get away!

Lie down, Pedro!

Don't run!

Lie down!

I'm all right!

Papa?

I was afraid.

I was afraid of losing you.

All of you.

I didn't know any other way to love.

Can you teach me?

Please, can you teach me?

The fire burned through...

...everything.

There's no root stock left...

...to replant.

Las Nubes...

...is finished.

Has it reached the inside?

It's alive.

It's alive.

Las Nubes lives!

We can plant!

This...

...is the root...

...of your life.

The root of your family.

You are bound to this land...

...and to this family...

...by commitment...

...by honor...

...and by love.

Plant it.

It will grow.

I don't know how.

Victoria...

...help your husband.

It's beautiful!
