:09:07
Your mother thinks there's something wrong with me.
:09:09
She says there's something in my blood that won't allow me to stay put.
:09:13
She may be right.
:09:15
If she's lucky, I haven't passed it on to you.
:09:18
We'll see.
:09:20
But for this family, the time has come to move on again.
:09:23
To the west of here is a vast expanse of untamed territory...
:09:27
full of wild Indians and countless dangers.
:09:30
But beyond that wilderness lies a land with great promise...
:09:34
where civilization has flourished for hundreds of years.
:09:38
We'll go to California and see what we can make of that place.
:09:41
But why, Pa?
:09:42
There are opportunities for lawyers...
:09:45
and rich land available for people who know how to work.
:09:48
In California, Wyatt will study the law and perhaps come to work with me.
:09:52
Maybe Morgan and Warren will join our firm.
:09:55
I've already told Pa that I'm not going. I wanna see what's available to me here.
:10:00
- I don't want to go, either. - Martha's in love with Jimmy Jorgenson.
:10:05
Good for you, Martha. He's a standup boy.
:10:08
His family knows what it means to put down roots.
:10:12
Martha, if you don't want to go, that's your decision.
:10:16
James has said he will join us, which suits me fine.
:10:19
The closer you keep your family, the better.
:10:22
They're the only ones you can rely on. Remember this, all of you.
:10:28
Nothing counts so much as blood.
:10:33
The rest are just strangers.
:10:42
Nicholas, I think you've already told them that.
:10:45
A hundred times.
:10:47
- You can't hear it enough. - I heard it a thousand times.
:10:51
I heard you, Pa. Blood counts the most.
