I mean, yes. I know you're gonna

make mistakes once in a while, but...

To allow yourself to be put in that...

Go to your room, please.

I need to think about how long

I need to ground you for.

I'll call you when dinner's ready.

Mom!

Go.

You know that time that you broke into

your uncle's garage

and took his scooter so that you could

take your friends on a joyride?

I'm trying to remember how old you were.

Fourteen.

That's right.

Emma, dinner!

Listen, honey.

I'm sorry this happened to you.

But facing the consequences

of your actions is...

It's a part of life.

If this was your first mishap

it would be one thing, but, hon,

your grades have been slipping,

you've been skipping classes.

And these friends of yours

keep getting you into trouble.

There's nothing wrong with my friends, Mom.

I made a mistake

and I said I'll never do it again.

Okay? I'm sorry. I'm sorry for all of it.

As for being grounded,

I think it should last as long

as you're working at this ranch place.

That means no study dates with your friends,

no basketball games, no school activities.

But what about the dance?

You know, when I was in school,

we danced to live bands,

not that hippity-hoppity DJ stuff.

Look, if you're doing everything

you're supposed to be doing

with this community service thing,

then I will consider the dance.

- You know I love you, right?

- Yes.

And I'm only doing this for your own good.

Yeah, I know.

Could've been worse.

Thank you, Mom.

I was talking about your lecture, darling.

Emma. Emma? Emma, wait up.

I'm sorry. I mean, we should have never

driven out there in the first place.

It's fine. I just need to get through with this

and move on with my life.

It's not gonna, you know,

affect college applications, right?

No misses and I can never be late.

Go. Don't worry about me.

I have to get to "work." Today's my first day.

- Good luck.

- Thanks.

Just 30 more days, that's all I'm asking for.

You must be Emma. I'm Kevin.

I'm the head horse trainer here,

at Red Bucket.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

You ever been around horses?

You ever pet one?

Maybe at the fair? Rode a pony once.

Any pets?

A little puppy, does that count?

No. But you're here, and that does.

Emma, welcome to the ranch the horses own.

What are they doing?

This is what we like to call "Charm Farm."

This is where we take the babies

and we get 'em accustomed

to living in everyday life.

It's a...

It's kinda like school.

Isn't that right, Cammie?

We found Cammie and the other two

starving to death in a ravine.

And about 60 pounds of carrots

and six hours later

we were finally able to catch 'em.

We've saved over 300 horses

here at Red Bucket.
