S4, E3: Wildfire’s recovery continues and he returns to Raintree, but Jean makes it very clear that Kris won’t be joining him. Believing that her time with Wildfire has come to an end, Kris decides to leave town. As she leaves with Dani to the bus station Noah has a small accident and they have to rush him to the hospital. Junior and Laura take in the wedding announcement that Davis planted in the paper. Junior runs into Calvin Handley, a schoolmate from high school. Junior tries to catch up with Calvin, but he’s not interested as he still holds a grudge from prom night when Junior stole his date. Noah, resigned to a wheel chair, is going to need help with rounds, which Dani can’t do because of investor meetings, so Kris volunteers. She can take a later bus out of town. Pablo comes to see Kris. He’s seen the effect that Kris’ presence is having on Jean, and tells her in no uncertain terms that he wants her to leave town. Kris is poleaxed, but Noah informs Pablo that she’s his new assistant. Junior goes to Matt and asks him to be his best man, and Matt says yes. Matt also confirms Kyle Handley’s story. Matt’s dream of keeping horse racing alive at Raintree takes another hit as Jean wants to put Wildfire in a pen where dude ranchers can take pictures with him. Their argument is cut short when Wildfire has an emergency. Junior goes to apologize to Calvin, but learns that Calvin has been working on a wind turbine design which intrigues Junior. The only thing holding Calvin back is lack of money. Noah and Kris rush to attend to Wildfire; Noah insists, over Jean’s objections, that Kris assist him with Wildfire. Davis is dead-set against it Junior investing in the wind turbine. Junior is forced to go to Calvin and tell him that he can’t invest in the turbine. Kris goes to Jean and tells her that she cares about Wildfire and he wouldn’t be where he is now if she hadn’t pushed and that he needs Kris to get better. Jean finally relents and allows Kris to take care of Wildfire. Junior and Laura go to see Calvin, and Junior tells Calvin that he is personally investing in his wind turbine. Matt finds Wildfire standing strong in his new pen. He asks Jean what happened and she tells him that Kris is rehabbing Wildfire until he’s better. Matt can’t help but feel he’s won a small victory. Kris returns to the clinic and Dani offers her the assistant job. Later they go to tend horses at Raintree and Kris’ presence ignites Wildfire. He jumps from his pen, proving that his leg is healing and that Kris is exactly what he needs.
