TV Guide
Synopsis: Sam
is a Native American who helped his grandfather escape from a nursing
home, but now has to help him die with dignity. Joseph: Frank Sotonoma
Salsedo. Taggart: Leon Rippy. Suzanne Whitehorse: Gloria Hayes. Deputy:
Tom Everett. Sam: Scott Bakula.
Sam
leaps in to find himself in the middle of a beating from a police
sheriff, who angrily tells Sam not to get smart with him. Sam tries to
fight back, but is knocked out from behind by the sheriff's deputy. The
two of them drag Sam down a hall and into a jail cell, tossing him in
with an old Native American man. Sam looks into a mirror and sees a
young Native American man staring back at him.
It's November 22, 1970, in Nevada, and Sam has leaped into George
Washakie. The old man sharing his prison cell is George's grandfather,
Joseph. The two have been arrested and imprisoned for stealing a pickup
truck, though Joseph maintains that they simply borrowed it. He tells
Sam that unless he wants to be locked up and eating food off trays like
in the nursing home, he should find a way to get them out.
The next morning, Taggart (played by Leon Rippy), the police sheriff,
finds Joseph sitting on his bunk and singing to himself. Sam is nowhere
to be seen. Joseph tells Taggart that he turned Sam into a raven and
Sam flew away, but he couldn't escape because he can only turn into a
wolf. Taggart draws his gun and enters the cell, looking under both of
the bunks. Joseph suddenly stops singing, and Sam, who was hiding under
the mattress and covers of his bunk, attacks Taggart and knocks him
out. Sam takes Taggart's gun and the two of them lock the sheriff in
the cell and escape. Outside, Sam and Joseph get into the stolen pickup
and Sam hotwires the ignition and drives away, as Taggart watches
helplessly from the prison cell window.
Later, Taggart is in his office and loading his gun, when Suzanne
(played by Gloria Hayes), Joseph's granddaughter and George's sister,
arrives to ask about them. Taggart tells Suzanne about their escape and
Suzanne tells the sheriff that Joseph is sick, and needs to be taken
back to his nursing home. Taggart is unconcerned and leaves, refusing
Suzanne's request to come with him.
Sam and Joseph are on the road, as Joseph unsuccessfully tries to tune
in the radio, criticizing white men for not being able to make anything
besides more white men. He laughs, but the laugh turns into a coughing
fit. Sam pulls over and examines Joseph's breathing, correctly guessing
that Joseph has emphysema. He insists on taking Joseph to a hospital,
but Joseph asks Sam to just take him home. Al arrives and tells Sam
that the nearest hospital is fifty miles behind them. Joseph gets out
of the truck to answer a call of nature, leaving Sam free to talk to
Al. Al tells Sam that George broke Joseph out of the nursing home,
which Suzanne had put him into. Sam guesses that he's there to save
Joseph's life, but Al responds that he's there to take Joseph back to
the reservation where he was born so he can die with dignity.
Joseph returns and Sam tells him he should go back to the nursing home.
Joseph points out a hawk passing overhead, telling Sam that the hawk is
able to live free, and doesn't want to be put in a cage when it's close
to death. He tells Sam that he has been among the white men too long
and walks away. Al insists to Sam that Joseph won't get proper medical
care if they turn around and go back, because the sheriff is coming
after them and will probably shoot them. Sam agrees to take Joseph to
the reservation, but makes him promise to see a doctor when they get
there.
Later, Joseph sees a small convenience store and tells Sam to stop. Sam
notices an oxygen tank as they enter the store. Inside, Joseph tries to
buy blankets, but neither of them has any money. Sam pulls out the
sheriff's gun, scaring the shopkeeper, and offers to trade him the gun
for the blankets. Joseph asks for the shotgun on the wall behind the
cash register, which the shopkeeper eagerly hands over. Sam also asks
for the oxygen tank, and gives it to Joseph to breathe from as they get
back on the road. In the truck, Sam discovers that Joseph had several
other items from the store hidden in the blankets, including a knife
which he gives to Sam. Joseph has also stolen a portable radio from the
store, and is now listening to a football game, cheering on the
Redskins as they score a touchdown against the Cowboys.
Suddenly, Sam and Joseph hear Suzanne's voice coming from the police
radio. Suzanne asks Sam to bring Joseph back, but Sam responds that he
can't. Taggart is listening in from his truck and tells Sam and Joseph
to turn themselves in. Suzanne pleads with them, but Joseph vehemently
refuses to come back and starts coughing again as he hangs up the radio.
Sam asks Joseph if the road they're on goes over the mountains, but
Joseph says it doesn't. He asks Sam to pull over and points out two
horses on the other side of a chainlink fence. He tells Sam that
they'll go home together. Later, Taggart finds their truck abandoned,
with a note from Joseph attached telling the owner of the horses that
they're not stealing them, they're only borrowing them.
Sam and Joseph are on horseback, heading up into the mountains. Joseph
gets off his horse and tells Sam about the officers who rode on
horseback when he was in World War I, as he uses a can of paint he
stole from the convenience store to paint traditional Native American
markings on his horse. Sam and Al watch as Joseph makes a number of
handprints on the rear of the horse, telling Sam that they represent
men killed in battle. He then gives the paint to Sam to do the same,
telling him that he can see it in Sam's eyes. Sam makes two handprints
on his horse, representing the two men he has killed during his
leaping. Sam and Joseph then get back on their horses, but a gunshot
rings out, and Sam falls to the ground.
Moments later, Joseph is exchanging gunfire with Taggart, who is
shooting at them from further down the mountain. Al is kneeling over
Sam, who has been shot in the ribs, although the wound isn't serious.
Sam and Joseph manage to lead their horses to higher ground and out of
Taggart's range.
Later that night, Sam is now leading both horses and supporting Joseph
as they struggle to continue up the mountain. Joseph eventually
collapses and is having trouble breathing. Sam spots a cave nearby and
the two of them head inside with the horses. Al is waiting for them
inside and Sam tells him that Joseph might not make it. Joseph asks Sam
to build a fire near the back of the cave so that it won't be seen from
the outside. Sam gathers wood from the fire, but then realizes he
doesn't have any matches. Joseph offers to show Sam an old Native
American trick and starts chanting and waving his hand over the wood,
before producing a lighter and using it to start the fire. He tells Sam
that his son, George's father, used to fall for that trick all the time.
Joseph asks Sam if he misses his father and Sam confirms. Joseph asks
if Sam thinks he'll ever see his father again and Sams says he doesn't
think he will. Joseph says that when people die, they shed one skin and
put on another, before leaping to a new life. He tells Sam that all of
life is a series of leaps and we don't always see where we're going. He
tells Sam to remember that the next time he leaps. Al asks Sam if
Joseph is talking to his grandson, or to Sam himself. Joseph tells Sam
to stop trying to make him hang on to his old skin and Sam agrees.
Outside, Taggart has found the cave. He sees the light from the fire
and hears voices coming from inside. Taggart quickly enters the cave
with his gun drawn, but sees the cave is empty and the voices were
coming from Joseph's radio. Meanwhile, Sam and Joseph are escaping on
their horses. Taggart runs back out of the cave and starts following
them again.
As the sun rises, Joseph tells Sam that the reservation begins on the
other side of a river at the bottom of the hill they're on. The two of
them start riding down toward the river, but Joseph suddenly falls from
his horse, coughing as he hits the ground. Sam quickly dismounts and
checks on Joseph, who has injured his arm in the fall. Sam sets
Joseph's arm with a makeshift splint, and starts leading the horses
toward the river as Joseph is on horseback once more. Sam still wants
Joseph to see a doctor when they get to the reservation, but Joseph
refuses again. Sam tells Joseph that there's so much that he and others
can learn from him. Joseph tells Sam that the only thing he needs to
learn is that freedom is the greatest gift people are born with, and
the hardest thing to hold onto.
Suddenly, Sam and Joseph hear the sounds of an approaching horse.
Joseph steadies his shotgun, expecting to see Taggart, but when the
rider appears, it's Suzanne. She tells Sam that he should have never
taken Joseph from the nursing home, and tries to convince Sam that
Joseph can't take care of himself because of his illness. Taggart
appears at the top of the hill and Sam tells Suzanne to take Joseph
across the river before leaving to confront Taggart. Joseph asks with a
smile if Sam is going to scalp Taggart, but Sam disappoints him by
saying no.
Taggart sees Joseph and Suzanne heading toward the river and aims his
shotgun at Joseph. As he fires, Sam jumps out at Taggart, sending his
shot wild. Sam crash tackles Taggart to the ground, and the two of them
start to fight. Al looks on as Sam gets the better of Taggart and
starts throwing punches at him. As Taggart lays groggy on his back, Sam
grabs him by the head and raises his knife, seemingly about to scalp
him. Al shouts at Sam not to do it. Sam hesitates for a moment, then
brings his knife down and cuts off a clump of the sheriff's hair,
leaving him otherwise unharmed. Al tells Sam that he thought he was
really going to scalp Taggart and Sam responds that he was.
Taggart pulls out a handgun and fires a shot down the hill at Joseph.
Joseph is hit and falls off his horse. Sam and Suzanne rush to Joseph's
side, and Sam realizes that the wound is serious and Joseph is dying.
He picks Joseph up and starts carrying him toward the river. Taggart
calls out to Sam, still aiming his gun at them. Sam looks up at Taggart
and starts to cry as he tells him that all Joseph wanted to do was to
die in peace, and with dignity, under the sky and in the open spaces
that he called home. Taggart slowly lowers his gun, letting Sam and
Suzanne cross the river with Joseph.
As Sam carries Joseph across the river, Joseph asks him why he's
crying. Sam says he doesn't know. As they reach the other side, Joseph
tells Sam not to cry, and that he'll see Sam's father soon. Sam lays
Joseph down on the ground and realizes that Joseph has died. Suzanne
starts to cry, and as Al watches on in sorrow, Sam breaks down into
tears again. He looks into Joseph's face one more time, then leaps. Source
Personal
Review by Carol <aka> C_DEAN n C_AL:
This is a great episode. Very informative in the Shoshone ways and the
explanations of the symbols on the horses and some of the history of the
Indian people. How they were and still are persecuted. How they hold
very near the family, the tribe, the land and the animals.
It also shows that they have a sense of humor . but I think DB just put
the
lines in the script, but Joseph is full of one-liners that keep you
chuckling throughout this episode. My favorite one is: Joseph in the
general store and the shop keeper asks if there is anything else they
need and he says, "How about a fat woman on a narrow bed." This one
cracked Al up too.
The other one I loved is when he is chanting to make fire and pulls out
a
Zippo lighter and lights the fire. Al falls over backwards at this one,
so
did I !!!
I also like when Scott's hair is long as in this episode. I wish that
Dean
had more change of clothes, though. I love to see what combination of
clothes he's going to be wearing next!
Music:
Score by: Mike Post
Two country western songs playing in the general store on the radio:

Tried" by Merle Haggard
"I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" by Hank Williams Sr.

years old. He died in 1900. In 1840 he was the last principal chief of

Project
Trivia:
The IC door is not seen in this episode. You only hear chimes when Al
enters.
The handlink is a thin calculator looking black piece of plastic w/
gold
stripes on the back. It makes beeping sounds.
Ziggy is called a he by Al in this episode.
Sam
Trivia:
Sam knows he is a doctor because he gets oxygen for Joseph when he
can't breath. He splints Joseph's broken arm when he falls off his
horse.
He tells Al, "You're not a Doctor!"
In the general store Sam remembers his Dad use to buy him candy when
they went into town. He would get two sticks of cinnamon.
Al tells Sam that George's father died when he was 21. The same age as
Sam was when his father died.
The
Grandfather tells Sam to put
paint hand prints on the horses rump for the number of men he had
killed. Sam hesitates. Then he puts one hand print
on the horse. The grandfather says something like "go ahead,
I can see it in your eyes". Sam puts a second
print. Grandfather is satisfied. By that episode Sam had
killed Roget in Honeymoon
Express and Nick in Her
Charm. I remember that Roget told
Sam that Sam didn't have what it takes to kill a man,
that he could see it in his eyes. And later when he stabs
Roget, Roget tells Sam it will be easier the next time.
Sam
knows how to hotwire a car!
Al
Trivia:
He remembers the little town general store where he would go get
candy.
Al's
Outfits:
A single outfit for the entire episode: White shirt with burnt orange
print & bolo tie, white hat
w/black band, long brown coat, burnt orange pants, and brown shoes and

Say What? It must be windy in the Imaging Chamber as Al's clothes blow around a lot.
Al tells Sam that he is there
to help George die. A cigar appears out of nowhere in the next shot.
The stunt doubles for the Sheriff and Sam
can be easily determined during the fight scenes.
Interstate 70 is in Utah, not Nevada. Why
did the sheriff ask for a roadblock out of state?

Best
Lines:
In the general store Sam pulls out a pistol and the shopkeeper puts up
his
hands as if he's being robbed.
Al says, "Oh great Sam, why don't you go for 5 felonies while you're at
it!"
Sam's Best Scene and Lines: Sam picks up Joseph after he's been shot and the sheriff tells him not to cross the river. He turns to the sheriff and,
Sam
says, "All he wanted to do is die in peace. To die the way he wanted
to. He didn't want to die inside of a building, surrounded by people he
didn't know, hooked up to machines. He wanted to die surrounded by his
friends, by the sky, by the wind, by the open spaces that he grew up
with. They were his family, they were his friends. All he wanted to do
was die with dignity."
Sam, Joseph and Suzanne are crossing the river.
Sam says, "Hang on, Kenu. Hang on!"
Joseph says, "Why are you crying, Togo?"
Sam says, "I don't know."
Joseph says, "You like the Redskins?"
Sam says, "Best damn team in America!"
Joseph says, "Don't cry Togo. You're a good boy. I'll tell your father when I see him."
Sam says, "It's just a little further, Kenu. Just a little further. We made it!"
Sam lays him down and he's gone. Sam and Suzanne weep and Sam leaps.
Al's
Best
Scene:
After trading the pick-up truck they stole for the horses, they stop to
paint them and the horses and Al is telling Sam what he is doing and
why he's doing it.
Sam says, "Didn't you leave anything in the store?"
Joseph says, "Not if I could help it." He hands Sam the can of yellow
paint. "You open it."
You hear chimes and Al enters walking right through the horse. lol
Al says, "This is terrific Sam, he's painting society marks on. You're
part
of a Shoshone war party!"
Sam says, "I don't want to be on the war path, I want to get him some
medical help!"
Joseph says, "How's that paint coming?"
Sam says, "It's ready!"
Joseph says, "When I was in WWI, only the officers had ponies. I could
never get over how naked they look with out their markings. How could
you tell what they had done? How could you frighten your enemies? It
made no sense to me!" Joseph hands the rock with yellow paint on it to
Sam and says, "Here, you stole the horses too."
Al says, "Sam, this is just terrific! It's like the past come to life!
You know he just. painted the hoof prints on there, and it's to show
how many horse raids they went on or how many horses they stole."
Sam says, "Thought we just borrowed them?"
Joseph says, "The horses don't know that.Eh?"
Al says, "Ha! Ha! Ha! That's a good one!"
Sam says, "What are the handprints for?"
Joseph says, "For men killed in battle. Go on."
Sam says, "Ahh. Well. I Ahhh."
Joseph says, "Go on Togo, I can see it in your eyes. Now we are ready."
Al is punching keys on the hand link and says, "Sam, Ziggy did a
topographical analysis. He said that's the best way to go." He points
the
direction they should go.
Sam says, "I'm worried about him, Al."
Al says, "He looks all right to me."
Sam says, "You're not a doctor!"
Al says, "Hay! Don't count the old boy out! He might outlive you!"
You hear a gunshot and Sam falls off his horse.
Al yells, "SAM!!!"
Joseph yells, "TOGO!!!"
Best
Scene:
The best scene is where Joseph, Sam and Al are sitting cross-legged in a
cave, around the little campfire they made for the night.
You hear chimes and Al appears.
Sam says, "I not sure if he's going to make it, Al."
Al says, "Ah. well he better make it! Or else you're not gonna leap
outta
here, you're gonna leap right into jail. Comprende?"
Joseph says, "Togo, I hear voices in the night. I."
Sam says, "Ahhh. Yah."
Joseph says, "We need a fire."
Sam says, "Won't they see the light or the smoke?"
Joseph says, "Not if we make it small and towards the back."
Sam says, "I'll go get some wood."
Sam puts some sticks and twigs in a pile to make a fire and then stops.
Al says, "What?"
Sam says, "Matches."
Al says, "Matches? Sam, don't tell me."
Sam says, "I don't have any matches."
Joseph says, "Here I'll show you and old Indian trick."
Al says, "Sam this is great! We're getin' to watch a bit of authentic
western history!"
He starts to chant as if to conger up the Gods of Fire and then whips
out a
Zippo lighter and flicks it open and lights the fire.
Joseph says, "Ola!"
Sam says, "Old Indian trick, huh?"
Joseph says, "Your Dad use to fall for it every time. You miss him don't
you?"
Sam says, "Yah, I guess I do."
Joseph says, "Don't you think you'll ever see him again?"
Sam says, "No I don't think so."
Joseph says, "No wonder you want me to go on living. Death is a
doorway, and we are like the grasshopper. When we die, we shed one skin
and put on another and leap to a new life on the other side of the
door."
Sam says, "What if there's nothing beyond the door?"
Joseph says, "Then I would fight to hang on to this skin as hard as I
could.
Because it would be all I had. But it's not. All of life is a series
of leaps for us grasshoppers. Eh?"
Sam says, "I guess you could say so."
Joseph says, "Sometimes we see where we are going, sometimes we don't.
Have your ever leaped and not at least survived?"
Sam says, "No."
Joseph says, "The next time you leap, remember that."
Al says, "Is he talking to George or is he talkin' to you, Sam?"
Joseph says, "And stop trying to make me hang on to my old skin. Okay?"
Sam says, "Okay."
Joseph says, "Now, if we only had some hot dogs!"
Al laughs and falls over backwards with his legs still crossed.
Scott looks over at Dean with that look he gives him every so often and
does his half smile, as if the camera had stopped rolling.
