flying back here...

...when they got caught

in a bad storm.

- Sounds familiar.

- Very familiar.

They crashed, too.

Oh my God, were they okay?

The thing was is, no body knew

where it went down...

...they had searches

all over Colorado, and Utah...

...but they only found the plane

a week later in a National Forest.

Normally there's

a lot of tourists' there...

...but because of the storm no one

saw where the plane went down.

- They were dead?

- Yeah.

And ah, the worst thing

that animals had made it...

...they were just tough

to identify.

And the baby never got

found at all.

They just figured

it got dragged away.

- Oh, how awful.

- Yeah.

So, she shut down the lodge.

- No wonder.

- Then...

...that same year...

...her husband

was killed in a hunting accident.

Oh, I wish I never said

she was strange.

Me either. I haven't even

showed you the freaky thing.

There's something more freaky?

I'm not sure I want to know.

- Okay, so there's Josephine...

- Yeah.

...there's her husband, Kyle...

...that's the son-in-law holding

the granddaughter...

...and that's the...

- ...the daughter?

Isn't it amazing,

she looks exactly like you.

Kind of. Not exactly.

Are you kidding me,

it freaked me out when I saw it.

Oh, come on.

Give me your hand.

Wow, what was that?

I don't know, I think the baby

is shifting around or something.

Wow, that was a kick.

You're definitely having a guy.

How does that feel?

That's got to hurt.

It's just kind of weird. It's...

What's the matter?

Go get Josephine, hurry up.

Hurry up.

Hey, where's Josephine?

- In the kitchen.

- The kitchen?

I made a mess.

Out!

I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.

That's all right.

It's perfectly normal.

We'll just get the sheets changed.

Oh, thank you, thank you.

Where did that come from?

I heard what happened.

I'm so sorry.

That old drunk never learned

to keep his mouth shut.

Don't worry about it;

it was a long time ago.

They're 100 years old.

They look strong, though.

They're not falling apart.

- Her water broke.

- She's going to have the baby?

I had 22 hours between my water

breaking and the baby coming.

I'm just going to move into

room 135 and...

...leave the connecting door open

in case she needs me in the night.

I'm going to go for help

first thing in the morning.

- That's more than 20 miles.

- I told him that.

There could be a complete

white out...

...you've seen

what the weather is like...

...you'd lose all sense of

direction, you could die out there.

- And I told him that, too.

- I'm not going to die out there.

I'm going to be okay.

Ah, do you have energy bars?

Energy bars?

Yeah, you know like

something to eat?

I could pack some roast chicken...

and sandwiches.

Just like energy bars,

only made with food.

That'll work.

Okay. All right.

- Wish me luck.

- Good luck.

No, don't hold your breath.

Breathe in, really deeply.

In...

In, in, in, breathe in.

Now, let it out, slowly.

Good.

In... all the way.

Good.

It's good.

Okay.

Okay.

Breathe, deep, in and out.

Don't push.

- Don't push?

- No. Not time yet.

Oh, God.

Okay, let's move.

No, it's not time

to go flat on your back yet.

- I need to get up.

- No, you don't.

I need to go to the bathroom.

It feels like you have to go...

...but that's just the pressure

from the baby.

Okay. Oh, I'm going to check you.

Good, now just fast breathing.

Okay. If possible,

place a folded towel...

...or blanket under her legs...

...to keep her

from completely laying flat.

Very deep breath and we're going

to push to the count of 10.

Okay, push...

Nine, 10...

Okay.

Relax. Push again.

When you're ready.

I'm not doing this part.

What does it say?

You read it.

I don't have my reading glasses on.

Where are they?

Abe, this is not time

to get squeamish.

That's good, breathe, breathe,

breathe, breathe.

I can see the baby's head.

Not going to be long now.

Push really hard now.

- I can't.

- Yes, you can.

Push. Come on, push, push.

Okay, push, one more...

Oh not, stop.

Stop pushing.

The whole baby's head

is completely out.

Abe, grab that turkey baster,

use the tong.

Hold still, hold still now.

That's it.

Clean the baby's nose and...

...mouth.

Okay, what's next?

If the umbilical cord is wrapped

around the infant's neck...

Not, no, it's not.

Skip that part.

Okay.

Place your hands...

...on either side

of the baby's head...

...and gently guide it downward

while the mother pushes...

...until the top shoulder emerges.

All right, the worst part's over.

You ready to push again?

Okay.

Okay, I got the shoulders.

Oh, no. Here he comes.

Oh, I got him.

Once delivered, hold the baby's

face down and head down...

I know this part.

- Okay.

- All right.

Here he is.

Just be careful...

...don't pull the cord.

- Hi!

Hi! Hello!

You got any telephone service?

No, but get in,

I'll give you a lift to town.

Thank you.

Lisa, honey, we're going

to cut the umbilical cord.

You can keep the baby

right where he is.

- Okay.

- I'm just going to grab the cord.

Can you help me

move it over here?

Oh, come on, it's the placenta,

not a rattlesnake.

Ah, gee.

Ready?

Come on.

Oh, good work.

Abe, Abe?

Sorry. What?

Ah, have you been drinking

that rotgut of yours?

No, of course not.

Well, now might be a good time.

Snowmobiles.

I am going to teach those little

btards to leave us alone.

No, no...

They're coming to the front door.

- What?

Oh, well go, go.

- Lisa, you okay?

- Yeah, I'll be fine.

Doc, I am so glad you're here.

- Nice going, kid.

- Come on, come on.

- Josephine.

- If I had known you were...

...this close,

I wouldn't have cut the cord.

- The baby is born?

- Yes!

Lisa says to tell you,

you won your bet.

Yes!

That means it's a boy.

Would you take them

into the kitchen...

...and we will go

look in on the baby.

Hot chocolate?

Follow.

You rest now.

You did a nice job.

She lost a lot of blood.

She'll be fine. There's still

some residual bleeding.

I'm going to massage her uterus.

That should take care of it.

Is that Agnes Donahue's boy,

little Michael?

Little Michael is a Captain

in the Marine Corp.

That was Ethan, his brother.

He wasn't even born when...

...when I became

a crazy old recluse.

Your words, not mine.

Long time no see.

The place looks wonderful,

everybody misses it, you know.

Who is the other boy?

You'll get a kick out of this...

Richard Francis Garcia.

Velma and Hank got married?

Four kids now.

Well, what do you know?

I'll be downstairs if you need me.

Those snowboarding...

...is easier than skiing.

Easier.

Can I go see the baby now?

Sure, go upstairs,

but wait for the doctor...

...to get finished with her.

- Okay, thanks.

You look exhausted.

Why don't you go lie down?

Sure thing.

Boys.

Do you think I'm blind?

You think I wouldn't recognize

those snowmobiles...

...harassing me

the last two years.

You do realize

I could have shot you.

What's so funny?
