[Blusters]

[Girl Narrating]

The only difference between

cowgirls and angels,

my granddaddy used to say,

is that angels

can't ride as good.

[Woman]

Hello, hello, busy city

You let your light shine bright

Hello, good day

Good morning and good night

Hello, hello to the heartland

[Mooing]

You make me feel just right

Hello, good day

Good morning and good night

Hey, world,

I hope you're listening

When I say how

The more places that I go

The more I seem to know

I think you're beautiful

Hey, world,

I hope you're listening

When I say how

The more places that I go

The more I seem to know

I think you're beautiful

I think you're beautiful

[Narrator]

I wouldn't call myself a cowgirl.

And I'm not much

of an angel, either.

The truth be told,

I'm not really a rodeo fan.

But it was summertime,

and the rodeo was the most

exciting thing around.

[Crowd]

Oh!

I'm not exactly your typical

Oklahoma girl.

See, I'm half-orphan,

which means I don't have a daddy.

And my mama works all the time.

So I'm basically on my own.

I did have a granddaddy.

He was a rodeo trick rider.

- One of the best.

- [Groans]

When I was real little,

he'd tell me,

"It's not enough for a man

to know how to ride.

He's gotta know how to fall."

Well, I couldn't ride a horse

to save my life.

I have to admit, though,

it sure looked like fun.

- Yeehaw!

- Hey! What are you doin'

in my purse?

- Get outta there! Get on!

- Hey! What are you doin'

under here?

Come here.

Hey, you can't get away

from me, now... Hey!

Just stop!

[Whistling]

Ow!

All right.

Come on out of there.

Hi.

Security guard went that way.

I suggest you go that way.

Thank you, sir.

Mm-hmm.

- And don't let me

catch you in here again.

- I promise!

[Whinnies, Blusters]

It's... It's okay, boy.

Whoa, hey.

Hey, boy.

Come on. Step off it.

[Whinnies Quietly]

Come on.

Work with me, boy.

Here we go.

Come on over here.

[Clicks Tongue]

What are you doin'

out here, huh? All you need

is just a little love.

Ha. Good boy.

Here we go.

[Woman]

All right, girls,

listen up.

Real nice job, ladies.

Just a few little things

I noticed I think

we can improve on.

Nora, when we crack the whip,

you gotta keep up, okay?

I know.

[Grunts]

[Man Continuing]

Has to be a tassel...

Hi. That was an awfully

great show, everybody.

- Thank you!

- [Chuckles]

[Narrator]

Like I said,

I ain't much of an angel, either.

Yep. The only ridin' I did

was on my old bicycle.

One thing was for sure.

I wasn't gonna tell my mama

I was hanging out at rodeos.

She hated the rodeo.

"Rodeo's nothin' but

a bunch of deadbeats,"

she'd say.

And by rodeo...

she really just meant my daddy.

[Beeps]

[Woman] Hey, Punky Brewster,

just checkin' in on ya.

I know I promised

to swing by the market.

But we are

shorthanded tonight.

You know the drill.

Gotta be somethin'

left in the old fridge,

right? Love you.

[Beeps]

Love you too.

[No Audible Dialogue]

[Narrator]

Mama made it clear

a long time ago.

No talkin' 'bout my daddy.

Wouldn't even tell me his name.

But just like a Texas Ranger,

I had my ways.

"Elaine,

I'm sorry

for the sudden departure.

I'll always remember you.

Walker."

Can you think of a cooler name

for your daddy than that?

I mean, I'm not tryin'

to get down, but...

that's only the third

rodeo since spring

and there ain't been a...

Sorry. There hasn't been

a "Walker" at any of them.

I mean, at this rate,

my grandkids are gonna still

be lookin' for him.

[Sighs]

[Gasps]

Okay. Whoa. Whoa.

[Horse Grunts]

All right.

Just wait a second.

Ho. Easy.

[Grunts]

Whoa. Okay, boy.

Gosh.

You're too big.

That's the problem.

Point your toes.

Keep 'em straight.

- [Woman]

Up, up, up!

- Come on strong!

Rose, when you touch the ground,

you gotta jump back up.

As I see things come and pass

We're left with what's essential

That's better. Good girl.

Turn me underneath the prairie

when I'm dead

and dust and ash

I pray to leave you

what will carry

Dang.

[Woman Laughs]

To the one sweet light

that lasts

Madison,

that ain't funny.

It's funny to me, Kansas.

You just don't have

a well-developed

sense of humor like I do.

Don't worry about it.

Hey. Okay.

[Exhales]

Who was in here last night?

Looks like

the gelding

got loose again.

What's the matter

with that horse, Augustus?

Nothin' but trouble.

Lock was broken.

Found this.

Huh.

Come on. Keep up the speed!

You gotta sell it!

- There you go, Terence.

- Thank you, Alice.

- And how are you doin'?

- Well, I get up every morning...

and make it to bed

most nights.

- So I guess I should

count my blessings.

- [Chuckles]

You hang in there.

You sure do mean a lot

to all of us.

Thank you, Alice.

I appreciate the kind words.

Oh.

Beg pardon, ma'am.

Oh, that's okay.

[Chuckles]

Excuse me, ma'am.

You...

You have a nice day now.

Oh, you too.

[Chuckles]

[Bell Jingles]

[Girl]

I swear I was gonna pay for it.

Oh, is that why

you were halfway out the door?

No! I was halfway in the door!

You save your story

for the sheriff.

There you are.

Thought I told you

not to run off like that.

- Is she with you, Terence?

- Uh-huh.

Well, it looks like

she was trying to make off

with this bottle of aspirin.

[Clears Throat]

It's for my mama.

She's got

a real bad headache,

and it's extra-strength.

[Chuckles]

Sorry about that, Marta.
