1
00:00:45,003 --> 00:00:48,013
[wind howling]

2
00:01:50,276 --> 00:01:52,446
Haw, Togo! Haw! Haw!

3
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:57,827
Good dog! Good dog!

4
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:05,791
Leave it!

5
00:02:08,586 --> 00:02:10,296
[barking]

6
00:02:11,965 --> 00:02:13,675
Leave it alone!

7
00:02:20,223 --> 00:02:22,313
[thunder rumbling]

8
00:02:30,358 --> 00:02:31,358
Good dog.

9
00:02:42,078 --> 00:02:43,198
Well done, Togo!

10
00:02:44,164 --> 00:02:45,174
Well done, all!

11
00:02:45,749 --> 00:02:48,629
There'll be full bellies
and warm beds tonight.

12
00:02:48,710 --> 00:02:51,050
[barking]

13
00:02:51,129 --> 00:02:54,049
All right, Togo! Hike!

14
00:03:21,826 --> 00:03:24,786
Whoa!

15
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:29,961
[man] There's been a diphtheria outbreak.

16
00:03:30,043 --> 00:03:31,043
How long?

17
00:03:31,127 --> 00:03:33,167
- More than a week.
- Constance?

18
00:03:33,254 --> 00:03:34,264
Fine. She's fine.

19
00:03:35,173 --> 00:03:36,383
It's mostly children.

20
00:03:37,384 --> 00:03:38,394
Five have died.

21
00:03:39,010 --> 00:03:40,140
Bless them.

22
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:41,930
Twenty more sick here in Nome.

23
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:44,929
And no telling how many
in the Inuit villages.

24
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:47,769
They found serum in Fairbanks.

25
00:03:47,852 --> 00:03:50,612
They just don't know how
to get it from there to here.

26
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:56,649
Anyway, everybody's at Dexter's,
and they're asking for you.

27
00:04:00,949 --> 00:04:02,119
Hike!

28
00:04:04,369 --> 00:04:06,829
[man] What we have in our children
is an epidemic.

29
00:04:07,956 --> 00:04:10,746
And without antitoxin,
it's a death sentence to most,

30
00:04:10,834 --> 00:04:12,174
if not all those infected.

31
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:14,922
[people murmuring]

32
00:04:15,005 --> 00:04:16,165
The good news is,

33
00:04:16,256 --> 00:04:19,756
they've located antitoxin
at the Fairbanks Railroad Hospital,

34
00:04:20,260 --> 00:04:23,430
and they're ready
to put it on the next train to Nenana.

35
00:04:23,513 --> 00:04:26,143
A round trip from here to Nenana
is still 600 miles.

36
00:04:26,224 --> 00:04:30,524
They have aeroplanes in Fairbanks,
and we could fly it here.

37
00:04:30,603 --> 00:04:32,748
Did you see those clouds on the horizon
when you came over?

38
00:04:32,772 --> 00:04:35,402
Of course I did,
but maybe it's not as bad as it looks.

39
00:04:37,569 --> 00:04:40,659
Seppala, you were out there.
What do you think?

40
00:04:41,823 --> 00:04:42,993
It's going to be bad.

41
00:04:44,743 --> 00:04:45,913
How bad?

42
00:04:46,494 --> 00:04:48,004
Memorable, I think.

43
00:04:48,788 --> 00:04:49,998
What makes you think?

44
00:04:50,457 --> 00:04:52,577
Well, it looks biblical enough,

45
00:04:52,667 --> 00:04:56,797
and the barometer's falling
in a pretty disturbing way but...

46
00:04:57,922 --> 00:04:59,012
But what?

47
00:04:59,716 --> 00:05:01,626
We came up on caribou this morning.

48
00:05:01,718 --> 00:05:04,548
About 200 yards to our right, he saw them.

49
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:08,767
My foot was ready on the brake,
and he ignored them and kept running.

50
00:05:09,684 --> 00:05:12,524
That's when I knew this storm was special.

51
00:05:13,313 --> 00:05:15,153
I'm sorry, I don't understand.

52
00:05:15,231 --> 00:05:17,441
Togo's a caribou chaser of some renown.

53
00:05:18,109 --> 00:05:19,859
I still don't understand.

54
00:05:19,944 --> 00:05:23,374
Never in 12 years
had he not at least turned for them.

55
00:05:24,115 --> 00:05:26,485
When an animal denies his nature

56
00:05:26,576 --> 00:05:29,326
and runs for the barn
because he fears the storm...

57
00:05:29,954 --> 00:05:31,834
man better fear the storm.

58
00:05:33,583 --> 00:05:34,673
I see.

59
00:05:34,751 --> 00:05:37,801
In a storm like this,
how quickly could you get there and back?

60
00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:39,299
Not "how quickly,"

61
00:05:39,381 --> 00:05:40,381
"if."

62
00:05:40,465 --> 00:05:41,795
[scattered groans]

63
00:05:41,883 --> 00:05:43,223
Then I say aeroplane.

64
00:05:44,427 --> 00:05:45,847
Open cockpit aeroplane?

65
00:05:47,347 --> 00:05:50,137
Water-cooled engines?
Did you call that airfield in Fairbanks?

66
00:05:50,225 --> 00:05:51,555
They're making an assessment.

67
00:05:51,643 --> 00:05:52,733
I'll bet they are.

68
00:05:53,603 --> 00:05:55,483
I seriously don't think
flying's an option.

69
00:05:56,898 --> 00:05:58,818
But, in answer to your question,
"how quick?"

70
00:05:59,651 --> 00:06:02,401
Seppala once ran for me,
all the way to Nenana, in four days.

71
00:06:04,072 --> 00:06:05,992
For factual reference only.

72
00:06:06,074 --> 00:06:08,794
Personally I never cared
for the notion that sled dogs

73
00:06:08,868 --> 00:06:10,618
should be replaced by machines,

74
00:06:11,246 --> 00:06:14,076
but today I'm a champion of progress.

75
00:06:17,669 --> 00:06:18,799
Come on, pup.

76
00:06:25,176 --> 00:06:27,796
[indistinct]

77
00:06:27,887 --> 00:06:30,137
[thunder rumbling]

78
00:06:42,277 --> 00:06:45,107
Seppala, you going by the hospital?

79
00:06:46,114 --> 00:06:47,124
Climb on.

80
00:06:52,871 --> 00:06:53,871
Hike!

81
00:07:06,009 --> 00:07:07,719
[Seppala] Whoa! Whoa!

82
00:07:14,601 --> 00:07:15,601
Much obliged.

83
00:07:19,731 --> 00:07:20,821
Good luck, doctor.

84
00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:29,488
Towns are, uh,
usually founded by topography...

85
00:07:30,617 --> 00:07:33,037
proximity to roads and rivers.

86
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,250
Nome was founded by luck.

87
00:07:38,291 --> 00:07:39,711
The gold at Anvil Creek?

88
00:07:40,835 --> 00:07:42,455
You could see it with your naked eye,

89
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:45,550
pick it up with your fingers
from the sand.

90
00:07:47,634 --> 00:07:49,514
Gold dries up.

91
00:07:50,804 --> 00:07:52,104
Luck dries up.

92
00:08:04,109 --> 00:08:06,189
[dogs whining]

93
00:08:09,030 --> 00:08:10,370
[door closes]

94
00:08:23,169 --> 00:08:26,259
- [children coughing]
- [babies crying]

95
00:08:32,971 --> 00:08:34,811
[nurse speaking indistinctly]

96
00:08:44,649 --> 00:08:48,859
- [crying continues]
- [coughing continues]

97
00:08:48,945 --> 00:08:51,195
[dogs barking]

98
00:09:00,457 --> 00:09:03,167
[barking continues]

99
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:14,217
[door opens, closes]

100
00:09:17,432 --> 00:09:18,932
Where does he find the energy?

101
00:09:19,267 --> 00:09:21,977
By his reckoning,
he's still ten weeks old.

102
00:09:22,062 --> 00:09:23,232
[Constance chuckles]

103
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:34,573
So, you'll go?

104
00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:38,871
I just got home.
You're anxious to be rid of me?

105
00:09:38,953 --> 00:09:40,253
Hmm. Could be.

106
00:09:40,330 --> 00:09:43,290
Have reason for me to be gone, do you?

107
00:09:43,375 --> 00:09:44,825
- I have lovers.
- Ah?

108
00:09:44,918 --> 00:09:46,168
Too many to count.

109
00:09:46,252 --> 00:09:48,302
- I have no one but myself to blame.
- [chuckles]

110
00:09:48,797 --> 00:09:52,377
I was warned
not to marry someone so beautiful.

111
00:09:52,467 --> 00:09:53,797
Warned by whom?

112
00:09:54,719 --> 00:09:56,139
Everyone with eyesight.

113
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:02,229
So, you will go?

114
00:10:03,812 --> 00:10:05,612
I have no such inclination.

115
00:10:05,689 --> 00:10:07,519
Then why are you waxing sled runners?

116
00:10:10,318 --> 00:10:11,488
They need wax.

117
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,880
[Constance]
Can it even be done in this weather?

118
00:10:27,252 --> 00:10:28,462
Anything can be done.

119
00:10:28,545 --> 00:10:30,625
Well, let them choose
someone else for once.

120
00:10:31,381 --> 00:10:33,511
- The room was full of mushers.
- Right.

121
00:10:33,591 --> 00:10:35,431
But it's always my husband they come for.

122
00:10:36,511 --> 00:10:38,301
Pick someone with more at stake in this.

123
00:10:41,307 --> 00:10:45,187
I stopped at the hospital.
All those children, we know them.

124
00:10:45,854 --> 00:10:47,024
I know.

125
00:10:47,105 --> 00:10:51,065
That little girl that lives next to Mallon
and always runs out to pet the dogs.

126
00:10:51,151 --> 00:10:54,491
Sally, who pets everyone's dogs,
not just yours.

127
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:58,316
We know those children.
We know their parents.

128
00:10:58,867 --> 00:11:02,197
I understand this.
And tomorrow I'll be ashamed.

129
00:11:02,287 --> 00:11:04,327
But right now, I'm sorry, I'm afraid.

130
00:11:06,958 --> 00:11:10,048
It's not the first storm to hit Alaska.

131
00:11:10,128 --> 00:11:11,418
Don't patronize me.

132
00:11:14,924 --> 00:11:16,014
You're right.

133
00:11:45,622 --> 00:11:47,962
Don't take Togo. Fritz could lead.

134
00:11:48,041 --> 00:11:50,131
I'll cross that bridge when and if.

135
00:11:50,210 --> 00:11:52,800
He's 12 years old.
You said he's too old to go to Elwald,

136
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:54,959
and that isn't even
a quarter of this distance.

137
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:56,798
You're upsetting yourself for nothing.

138
00:11:57,592 --> 00:11:59,012
Let's go to sleep.

139
00:12:10,188 --> 00:12:12,748
I must say this before you make a decision
you'll forever regret.

140
00:12:14,943 --> 00:12:18,573
You're more attached to him than you know,
and you're about to run him to his death.

141
00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:22,620
And you're not prepared for what
it's going to do to you, I promise you.

142
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,250
Is that all?

143
00:12:26,705 --> 00:12:30,165
He is, of course, your dog,
and a working dog.

144
00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:33,250
And, were I more pragmatic,
I wouldn't love him, but I do.

145
00:12:34,087 --> 00:12:39,177
And I'm just so heartsick
that these are my last hours with him.

146
00:12:40,051 --> 00:12:41,141
Two things.

147
00:12:42,637 --> 00:12:48,097
One: if I were to try for Nenana
in these conditions without him,

148
00:12:48,184 --> 00:12:51,234
these would be your last hours with me.

149
00:12:51,312 --> 00:12:56,532
And two: at this hour, nothing's decided.

150
00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:58,430
- [pounding on door]
- [dog barks]

151
00:13:01,698 --> 00:13:02,818
You were saying?

152
00:13:09,247 --> 00:13:10,247
George?

153
00:13:10,874 --> 00:13:12,674
- [wind howling]
- Evening, George.

154
00:13:12,751 --> 00:13:14,961
[chuckles]
It appears your forecast is correct,

155
00:13:15,420 --> 00:13:17,300
if my journey out here is any evidence.

156
00:13:19,549 --> 00:13:22,549
The wind almost stopped me dead
a couple times.

157
00:13:24,387 --> 00:13:29,347
Oh, I... I talked with Fairbanks.
There will be no airborne rescue of Nome.

158
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:36,523
So, the time of the dog,
not only continues, it's at hand.

159
00:13:36,608 --> 00:13:39,438
So, you felt the need to come
all the way out here to share this news?

160
00:13:39,527 --> 00:13:41,357
Some things you need to say
to a man's face,

161
00:13:41,446 --> 00:13:42,816
isn't that right, Mr. Mayor?

162
00:13:44,199 --> 00:13:45,199
Yeah.

163
00:13:46,159 --> 00:13:47,289
Coffee or whiskey?

164
00:13:47,911 --> 00:13:50,211
Whiskey. If it's no trouble.

165
00:13:50,288 --> 00:13:53,248
No. No trouble. I'm having both.

166
00:14:06,971 --> 00:14:08,721
We have to be smart about this.

167
00:14:10,392 --> 00:14:12,892
You're going to ride in the sled
when I tell you.

168
00:14:13,978 --> 00:14:16,518
No squirming. No arguments, for once.

169
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,910
Got one more in ya, pup?

170
00:14:27,909 --> 00:14:30,539
[dogs barking]

171
00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:32,044
Almost there.

172
00:14:34,499 --> 00:14:35,539
Good dogs.

173
00:14:44,676 --> 00:14:45,756
I've seen worse.

174
00:14:46,678 --> 00:14:47,848
We could have a picnic.

175
00:14:55,270 --> 00:14:56,860
I'll be back before you know it.

176
00:14:57,439 --> 00:14:58,859
I won't even make the bed.

177
00:15:13,121 --> 00:15:15,581
Hey. Hey.

178
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:19,457
You bring him back to me, okay?

179
00:15:21,212 --> 00:15:22,712
And you come back to me.

180
00:15:25,717 --> 00:15:26,887
Good boy.

181
00:15:42,650 --> 00:15:44,150
[Seppala] All right, Togo!

182
00:15:47,697 --> 00:15:48,777
Hike!

183
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:59,130
[church bell tolling]

184
00:16:31,116 --> 00:16:32,406
[man] Come on, Togo!

185
00:16:32,492 --> 00:16:34,082
Come on, Togo!

186
00:16:35,912 --> 00:16:38,962
Come on! There you go.

187
00:16:39,708 --> 00:16:40,708
[Seppala] Hike!

188
00:16:46,673 --> 00:16:48,683
[wind howling]

189
00:17:07,694 --> 00:17:08,704
Here it comes.

You tend to your business,
I'll tend to mine.

195
00:18:05,085 --> 00:18:08,205
How can it not be my business?
No dogs in the bedroom.

196
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:09,836
He's in such pain.

197
00:18:09,923 --> 00:18:11,093
And in our bedroom.

198
00:18:13,385 --> 00:18:16,345
A runt has more imperfections
than just size, you know.

199
00:18:17,055 --> 00:18:20,425
Nature has its ways of sorting things out.

200
00:18:20,517 --> 00:18:23,017
Oh, should I just drown him
and speed up the process?

201
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:30,150
I'm just saying that Alaska
can be particularly cruel to the weak.

202
00:18:30,235 --> 00:18:32,025
I don't need to be reminded.

203
00:18:34,739 --> 00:18:37,279
What does it cost you
to give this life a chance?

204
00:18:39,619 --> 00:18:42,829
What does he bring
to the breed if he survives?

205
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,400
[Constance] The heart of a survivor.

206
00:18:50,338 --> 00:18:51,628
You're too softhearted.

207
00:18:53,299 --> 00:18:54,799
You're too Norwegian.

208
00:19:00,849 --> 00:19:02,349
[pounding]

209
00:19:15,405 --> 00:19:16,315

210
00:19:16,406 --> 00:19:17,446
Get!

211
00:19:18,867 --> 00:19:20,697
Why don't you put him back in the kennel?

212
00:19:20,785 --> 00:19:23,405
Every time I do, he digs his way out.

213
00:19:23,997 --> 00:19:28,747
I'm spending more daylight filling holes
than doing the work I should be doing.

214
00:19:28,835 --> 00:19:30,995
[barking]

215
00:19:31,087 --> 00:19:32,917
I catch you, you'll be sorry.

[sniffing]

217
00:19:38,011 --> 00:19:39,551
It's all your fault.

218
00:19:39,637 --> 00:19:42,017
I thought you were supposed to be
a great trainer of dogs.

219
00:19:42,098 --> 00:19:43,518
He's a devil.

220
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,600
Saint Francis of Assisi
would shoot this dog.

221
00:19:47,395 --> 00:19:48,395
Hey!

222
00:19:49,731 --> 00:19:51,901
- He's fast.
- He's mentally deficient.

223
00:19:52,442 --> 00:19:55,322
He's undersized,
unintelligent, untrainable.

224
00:19:56,363 --> 00:19:57,363
Yeah, but he's fast.

225
00:19:57,447 --> 00:19:59,567
I think you ought to give him
a chance on the sled.

226
00:19:59,657 --> 00:20:02,577
Stop, stop. That is not a sled dog.

227
00:20:02,660 --> 00:20:03,790
Never ever.

228
00:20:03,870 --> 00:20:05,540
Well, you won't know until you try.

229
00:20:05,622 --> 00:20:07,292
I won't know, period.

230
00:20:07,374 --> 00:20:09,584
Victor Anderson wants one of my pups.

231
00:20:10,377 --> 00:20:12,497
Well, I have the dog to give him.

232
00:20:19,219 --> 00:20:20,719
Every year we go through this.

233
00:20:20,804 --> 00:20:22,264
Not like this.

234
00:20:22,347 --> 00:20:24,517
How many times do I have to remind you?

235
00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:28,139
They're not pets. They're not our friends.
They're not our children.

236
00:20:29,020 --> 00:20:30,690
They're animals.

237
00:20:30,772 --> 00:20:31,942
Work animals.

238
00:20:42,158 --> 00:20:43,158
Serves you right.

239
00:20:55,463 --> 00:20:57,133
[Togo whines]

00:21:03,179 --> 00:21:04,179

[chuckles]

246
00:22:21,549 --> 00:22:25,469
Well, shame on you, Victor Anderson.
If you didn't want a dog, why bother us?

247
00:22:25,553 --> 00:22:27,433
He's more trouble than he's worth.

248
00:22:32,519 --> 00:22:33,729
I think I'll go down now.

249
00:22:35,313 --> 00:22:36,483
I would.

Hike up!

Next time I go the wrong way,
you tell me to go to hell.

[woman singing in foreign language]

291
00:26:54,364 --> 00:26:56,834
Her name, Atiqtalik,

292
00:26:56,908 --> 00:26:59,948
means "polar bear mother."

293
00:27:01,204 --> 00:27:03,674
Your dog is her cub now.

She can fix.

298
00:27:25,937 --> 00:27:27,977
"Don't worry, young one...

soon it'll be warm again."

300
00:27:38,908 --> 00:27:42,828
When I finish,
you'll start serving life in prison.

301
00:27:43,747 --> 00:27:45,867
All because I married a Belgian.

302
00:27:47,334 --> 00:27:49,094
Belgium is a soft country.

303
00:27:49,794 --> 00:27:52,964
Norway, on the other hand,
is a harsh country.

304
00:27:53,965 --> 00:27:57,335
In Brussels,
you'd sleep in a feathered bed

305
00:27:58,011 --> 00:27:59,931
and have salmon roe for breakfast.

306
00:28:00,764 --> 00:28:03,644
In Storfjord, your days would be numbered.

Lesson number one: never marry a Belgian.

309
00:28:09,606 --> 00:28:11,316
They're sentimental.

310
00:28:11,399 --> 00:28:13,229
And you end up doing days of hard work

311
00:28:13,318 --> 00:28:16,448
for a problem that a bullet
solves in seconds.

312
00:28:17,614 --> 00:28:22,704
Lesson number two: for you, Satan,
or whatever your name is...

313
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,750
try digging out now.

Go! Get!

00:32:48,426 --> 00:32:51,716
Since when did you start worrying about
keeping people out of the tack room?

350
00:32:51,805 --> 00:32:53,425
This isn't for keeping people out.

351
00:32:55,850 --> 00:32:59,190
You're taking him out of the kennel
and putting him in here?

352
00:32:59,270 --> 00:33:00,690
The kennel won't hold him.

353

- Apparently your dog...
- Not my dog.

354

no matter how many knees
I put to his chest.

357
00:33:10,865 --> 00:33:13,985
Your dog,
who violates the rules of the pack

358
00:33:14,077 --> 00:33:17,537
and upsets the hierarchy
I've worked years to establish.

359

Your cur,
who rewards your kind nature with anarchy.

360
00:33:24,754 --> 00:33:26,134
This is for keeping him in.

361
00:33:31,511 --> 00:33:33,141
Was that a piece of our house?

"can they get there and back in time?"

There are advantages
to being at this roadhouse on race days.

When I told my father
I was leaving for Alaska,

461
00:44:33,965 --> 00:44:36,045
he laughed at me.
He thought it was a joke.

462
00:44:36,801 --> 00:44:38,851
Only an idiot would be foolish enough

When I said the word "gold,"
he slapped me.

465

And he promised me
that the only gold I would find in Alaska

466
00:44:52,233 --> 00:44:53,993
was what I'd brought in my own teeth.

no.

we ever have to make,

as I told you before.

Oh. Don't worry about that.
I want him to be an inside dog.

Well, inside might not...

482
00:46:00,051 --> 00:46:02,101
Last winter I had wolves at the door.

483
00:46:02,178 --> 00:46:04,848
They would jump up at the window
and stare at me.

484
00:46:05,598 --> 00:46:09,268
Trust me. There were no wolves
where I was raised in Ireland.

485
00:46:09,352 --> 00:46:13,732
But with this lad by my side,
no wolf would dare enter.

00:53:31,211 --> 00:53:32,301
It's fitting.

546
00:53:35,799 --> 00:53:36,929
[Seppala chuckles]

547
00:53:44,641 --> 00:53:47,561
Honey! Come here, please?

548
00:53:52,148 --> 00:53:54,438
Come. Step around him, he won't move.

549
00:53:54,526 --> 00:53:57,736
- I have things to do.
- Over here. Next to me.

550
00:53:58,697 --> 00:53:59,697
Please.

551
00:54:07,330 --> 00:54:10,920
Okay, now, call him.
Ask him to come into the bedroom.

552
00:54:11,793 --> 00:54:12,793
Do it.

553
00:54:14,087 --> 00:54:15,167
Togo, come.

554
00:54:15,797 --> 00:54:16,837
Again.

555
00:54:16,923 --> 00:54:20,013
- [scoffs] This isn't fair.
- Of course it is. Again, more demanding.

556
00:54:21,636 --> 00:54:24,506
Togo, you come in this room!

557
00:54:24,597 --> 00:54:26,977
My husband is trying to prove
a point of some kind.

558
00:54:28,143 --> 00:54:30,443
No dogs in the bedroom.

559
00:54:31,646 --> 00:54:33,816
Good boy, Togo. Good boy.

560
00:54:34,357 --> 00:54:36,647
Outstanding!

561
00:54:37,736 --> 00:54:38,736
Good dog.

562
00:54:39,446 --> 00:54:41,549
[man] I don't care what the governor says,
he's wrong.

563
00:54:41,573 --> 00:54:44,083
Irrespective of how you feel, Jafet...

564
00:54:44,159 --> 00:54:45,579
Well, Mrs. Seppala.

565
00:54:45,660 --> 00:54:48,660
Any musher would be lucky
to survive 30 miles in this weather.

566
00:54:48,747 --> 00:54:51,327
Seppala's the only one
who can survive a longer run!

567
00:54:51,416 --> 00:54:53,336
What's this nonsense about a relay?

568
00:54:53,710 --> 00:54:56,550
Uh, now, Constance, this is a good thing.

569
00:54:56,629 --> 00:54:58,049
- Is this it?
- It is.

570
00:54:58,131 --> 00:55:00,341
Fourteen teams stationed
at these roadhouses

571
00:55:00,425 --> 00:55:02,215
between Nenana and Shaktoolik.

572
00:55:02,302 --> 00:55:04,392
Even as we speak,
they're running short legs

573
00:55:04,471 --> 00:55:06,471
passing the serum
from one sled to the next.

574
00:55:06,556 --> 00:55:10,556
And on our end, two teams will go out
to these roadhouses and wait for Seppala.

575
00:55:11,895 --> 00:55:14,055
We'll need another sled
for the relay on our end.

576
00:55:14,147 --> 00:55:16,000
Is it possible you can
put together a team for us?

577
00:55:16,024 --> 00:55:17,034
Of course.

578
00:55:17,108 --> 00:55:18,544
Do you think your man, Gunnar,
would drive them?

579
00:55:18,568 --> 00:55:19,988
- Of course.
- Good.

580
00:55:20,070 --> 00:55:21,610
The governor came up with this when?

581
00:55:21,696 --> 00:55:23,406
Twelve hours after Seppala departed.

582
00:55:24,657 --> 00:55:27,537
Leave it to a politician to change
the rules after the game's begun.

583
00:55:27,619 --> 00:55:29,999
No. This is a good thing.

584
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,540
Seppala won't have to go as far.

585
00:55:31,623 --> 00:55:34,173
- But he has no idea there's a relay.
- Exactly.

586
00:55:34,250 --> 00:55:36,290
Just... Please.

587
00:55:38,046 --> 00:55:40,296
Now, by best estimate,

588
00:55:40,382 --> 00:55:44,142
the relay should be at the roadhouse
in Shaktoolik tomorrow.

589
00:55:44,219 --> 00:55:46,259
Now the governor's people
have worked this all out.

590
00:55:46,346 --> 00:55:49,516
And by all accounts, when Seppala arrives
at Shaktoolik tomorrow,

591
00:55:49,599 --> 00:55:51,429
the serum will be there waiting for him.

592
00:55:51,518 --> 00:55:52,918
[Constance] He's in Shaktoolik now.

593
00:55:54,020 --> 00:55:56,900
- Or past it.
- What? No. No, that's not possible.

594
00:55:56,981 --> 00:56:00,321
I know my husband, if there's ice
on Norton Sound, he's crossed it.

595
00:56:00,402 --> 00:56:02,702
In this storm?
Surely he's not going to try and cross...

596
00:56:02,779 --> 00:56:03,859
Of course he would.

597
00:56:04,656 --> 00:56:07,656
Going around the Sound
is 90 miles, crossing it is 20.

598
00:56:07,742 --> 00:56:08,992
He saves a day each way.

599
00:56:09,077 --> 00:56:12,537
George, if there's ice on the Sound,
he's crossed it.

600
00:56:13,373 --> 00:56:14,934
And if they don't meet at the roadhouse...

601
00:56:14,958 --> 00:56:18,208
Then they'll just hook up on the trail.

602
00:56:18,294 --> 00:56:21,214
There are 1,000 ways a driver
can miss another on the trail.

603
00:56:21,297 --> 00:56:23,217
A thousand ways in good weather.

604
00:56:24,092 --> 00:56:26,012
- You know this.
- I do.

605
00:56:26,094 --> 00:56:29,474
So, if my husband doesn't magically run
into your relay team,

606
00:56:29,556 --> 00:56:30,658
the one he is not even looking for,

607
00:56:30,682 --> 00:56:32,392
he and his dogs will drive on for Nenana.

608
00:56:32,475 --> 00:56:35,725
And your relay driver,
when he realizes he's missed them,

609
00:56:35,812 --> 00:56:37,232
he will set out on his own.

610
00:56:37,313 --> 00:56:38,673
But he wouldn't do that, would he?

611
00:56:38,732 --> 00:56:41,072
- Who is it? Who's the driver?
- Henry Ivanoff.

612
00:56:41,151 --> 00:56:43,031
Well, Henry is tough and brave,

613
00:56:43,111 --> 00:56:46,161
and he's not going to sit in front
of a warm fire while children die.

614
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:47,659
I promise you that. He'll set out.

615
00:56:50,285 --> 00:56:51,405
Well, can he make it?

616
00:56:54,122 --> 00:56:55,962
I won't speculate on the life of a musher.

617
00:56:58,585 --> 00:56:59,585
Can he?

618
00:57:01,588 --> 00:57:04,048
My guess is
we don't find Henry until the spring.

619
00:57:05,050 --> 00:57:08,600
Not him, not his dogs,
not the serum, until the thaw.

620
00:57:09,512 --> 00:57:10,512
[Mayor] But, uh...

621
00:57:10,597 --> 00:57:12,137
Four days ago, in this very room,

622
00:57:12,223 --> 00:57:15,563
we concluded only one man and one dog
could make that run.

623
00:57:16,269 --> 00:57:18,019
And nothing has changed but the weather.

624
00:57:20,106 --> 00:57:21,226
It's worse.

625
00:57:21,858 --> 00:57:24,438
[George] All those children... lost.

626
00:57:29,449 --> 00:57:30,619
Pray they meet.

627
00:57:53,515 --> 00:57:55,055
[Henry] Gee! Gee!

628
00:57:58,770 --> 00:58:01,560
Gee! Gee! Round.

629
00:58:10,824 --> 00:58:13,244
Hike! Gee! Gee!

630
00:58:22,669 --> 00:58:24,549
Leave it. Leave it!

631
00:58:25,171 --> 00:58:27,261
Haw! Haw!

632
00:58:30,176 --> 00:58:31,176
Leave it!

633
00:58:33,304 --> 00:58:34,314
Haw!

634
00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:58,160
[barks]

635
00:58:58,246 --> 00:59:00,746
[dogs barking]

636
00:59:09,007 --> 00:59:10,007
No, no, no, no, no.

637
00:59:10,842 --> 00:59:12,052
Sepp, no!

638
00:59:12,802 --> 00:59:13,802
Don't!

639
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:17,220
Sepp! Sepp!

640
00:59:19,059 --> 00:59:20,309
I have the serum!

641
00:59:21,936 --> 00:59:24,686
No! I have the serum.

642
00:59:25,857 --> 00:59:26,857
Sepp!

643
00:59:28,026 --> 00:59:29,066
Sepp!

644
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:31,320
No!

645
00:59:47,921 --> 00:59:50,921
[dogs barking in distance]

646
01:00:33,842 --> 01:00:37,682
[Henry] Bill Shannon took the first leg.
Ran through the night.

647
01:00:38,513 --> 01:00:39,973
Fifty below, easy.

648
01:00:40,724 --> 01:00:43,734
He arrived in Tolovana
with his face black from frostbite.

649
01:00:45,061 --> 01:00:47,151
He passed on to Ed Kallands.

650
01:00:47,731 --> 01:00:50,981
They had to pour hot water on his hands
'cause they were frozen to the sled.

651
01:00:52,819 --> 01:00:54,199
Then went Tommy Patsy.

652
01:00:56,197 --> 01:00:57,317
Then Jackscrew.

653
01:00:58,199 --> 01:01:00,699
But none of us are as tough as you, Sepp.

654
01:01:07,167 --> 01:01:08,877
- Sepp?
- Yeah, what?

655
01:01:10,211 --> 01:01:11,211
You okay?

656
01:01:12,797 --> 01:01:15,427
Of course. Never better.

657
01:01:20,764 --> 01:01:22,024
What about him?

658
01:01:22,098 --> 01:01:23,138
What about him?

659
01:01:24,559 --> 01:01:26,269
Please take this the right way, okay?

660
01:01:27,979 --> 01:01:31,229
That, right there,
is the best dog I've ever known...

661
01:01:33,026 --> 01:01:35,236
but what I'm looking at is a spent animal.

662
01:01:36,613 --> 01:01:40,123
He is.
This storm just about broke all my pups.

663
01:01:42,118 --> 01:01:44,698
I wouldn't be a true friend
if I didn't speak my mind and...

664
01:01:46,289 --> 01:01:47,539
[sighs]

665
01:01:50,043 --> 01:01:52,923
Leave him here. I'll take good care of him
till the weather breaks.

666
01:01:53,004 --> 01:01:54,094
He's my lead!

667
01:01:56,257 --> 01:01:58,757
Now do yourself a favor
and tend to your own.

668
01:02:04,474 --> 01:02:05,484
Sure, Sepp.

669
01:02:13,066 --> 01:02:14,106
I'm sorry.

670
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:17,780
I shouldn't have spoken to you like that.

671
01:02:17,862 --> 01:02:19,492
Yeah, don't give it a second thought.

672
01:02:19,572 --> 01:02:22,492
No, that was shameful of me.

673
01:02:23,368 --> 01:02:25,948
Especially since what you said
was out of kindness.

674
01:02:28,206 --> 01:02:29,456
Whatever happens tomorrow,

675
01:02:29,541 --> 01:02:32,591
fortune or fault,
is mine and mine to reconcile.

676
01:02:33,586 --> 01:02:36,126
But I thank you, Henry,
for thinking of the dog.

677
01:02:38,508 --> 01:02:39,678
Not many do.

678
01:02:45,724 --> 01:02:48,144
[doctor] "To sleep, to sleep.

679
01:02:49,144 --> 01:02:50,984
The long bright day is done.

680
01:02:51,980 --> 01:02:54,520
And darkness rises
from the fall of the sun.

681
01:02:56,067 --> 01:02:58,487
To sleep, to sleep.

682
01:02:59,696 --> 01:03:02,906
Whate'er thy joys,
they vanish with the day.

683
01:03:04,034 --> 01:03:08,204
Whate'er thy griefs,
in sleep they fade away.

684
01:03:09,164 --> 01:03:11,424
To sleep, to sleep.

685
01:03:12,208 --> 01:03:16,548
Sleep mournful heart
and let the past be past.

686
01:03:17,172 --> 01:03:19,262
Sleep, happy soul.

687
01:03:20,216 --> 01:03:22,796
All life will sleep at last.

688
01:03:24,846 --> 01:03:25,846
To sleep.

689
01:03:27,515 --> 01:03:28,765
To sleep."

690
01:03:32,729 --> 01:03:34,649
[man] Still time for me to place a bet?

691
01:03:34,731 --> 01:03:36,571
[Seppala] Thanks for your hospitality.

692
01:03:36,649 --> 01:03:37,939
Looks like I was wrong.

693
01:03:38,026 --> 01:03:41,696
You weren't wrong.
The die is cast. We'll make it.

695
01:03:52,415 --> 01:03:54,785
All right, Togo! Hike!

696
01:03:59,547 --> 01:04:01,047
He's going across the Sound again.

697
01:04:01,925 --> 01:04:03,585
[Henry] Seppala, no!

698
01:04:04,761 --> 01:04:06,471
He knows what his dogs have left.

699
01:04:07,639 --> 01:04:10,019
For him, it's the Sound or nothing.

Gee! Gee!

Haw! Haw!

01:05:22,797 --> 01:05:24,167
Good puppies!

707
01:05:25,508 --> 01:05:26,678
Good dogs!

01:05:27,635 --> 01:05:29,505

Go!

Hold up, Togo!

711
01:05:36,353 --> 01:05:37,563
Good dog.

712
01:05:39,022 --> 01:05:40,022
Run!

713
01:05:42,275 --> 01:05:43,275
Run!

714
01:05:45,153 --> 01:05:46,203
On straight.

715
01:05:49,074 --> 01:05:50,454
Run, puppies!

- Come on! Come on!
- Go, go, go, go, go!

01:06:09,636 --> 01:06:12,636
Twenty more dollars on Leonhard Seppala.

719
01:06:13,515 --> 01:06:15,925
Twenty dollars on those itty-bitty dogs.

left the last roadhouse in the lead.

722
01:06:20,105 --> 01:06:21,225
Friend, this race is over.

723
01:06:21,314 --> 01:06:23,194
[men laughing]

724
01:06:35,662 --> 01:06:36,962
You see that?

725
01:06:37,038 --> 01:06:39,288
That's the best dog team
in the world, right there.

726
01:06:40,375 --> 01:06:42,915
- Hike! Hike!
- [Seppala] They know who they are,

727
01:06:43,003 --> 01:06:45,013
time for us to find out who we are.

728
01:06:46,965 --> 01:06:50,635
Go! Come on, puppies!

729
01:06:50,719 --> 01:06:53,219
Haw! Haw!

730
01:06:53,304 --> 01:06:58,234
Haw! Haw! Haw! Haw!

731
01:06:58,309 --> 01:06:59,729
Hike! Good dog!

732
01:07:07,235 --> 01:07:09,355
Come on, dogs! Come on, dogs!

733
01:07:09,446 --> 01:07:12,816
Hike! Hike! Hike! Hike!

734
01:07:12,907 --> 01:07:17,947
Good dogs! Good dogs! Good dogs!

735
01:07:18,038 --> 01:07:19,038
[Scotty] Hike, doggy!

736
01:07:24,294 --> 01:07:25,504
[Seppala] Whoo-hoo!

737
01:07:27,756 --> 01:07:28,966
Wait a minute.

738
01:07:29,049 --> 01:07:30,379
That's not Scotty.

739
01:07:32,886 --> 01:07:33,966
Who is that?

740
01:07:34,054 --> 01:07:38,814
That, my friends, is Leonhard Seppala
and his itty-bitty dogs.

741
01:07:38,892 --> 01:07:42,152
[man laughs] Whoo!

742
01:07:43,563 --> 01:07:46,863
[crowd cheering]

743
01:07:53,531 --> 01:07:55,951
Whoa!

744
01:07:58,203 --> 01:08:00,043
[cheering continues]

745
01:08:00,580 --> 01:08:01,960
Congratulations, Sepp.

746
01:08:08,797 --> 01:08:10,507
Togo. Hi.

747
01:08:10,924 --> 01:08:13,934
Well done. You did it. [chuckles]

748
01:08:14,552 --> 01:08:15,762
Good boy.

749
01:08:20,558 --> 01:08:22,348
[hammering]

750
01:08:29,818 --> 01:08:32,148
Did you ever think we'd have
such a thing on our wall?

751
01:08:32,237 --> 01:08:35,657
[chuckles] I never thought we'd have
$5,000 in prize money.

752
01:08:35,740 --> 01:08:37,700
Prize money you can't hang on a wall.

753
01:08:37,784 --> 01:08:40,754
Actually, you can if you have enough pins.

754
01:08:42,330 --> 01:08:44,460
All thanks to this troublemaker.

755
01:08:45,417 --> 01:08:49,047
The only one
who never underestimated you, was you.

756
01:08:49,129 --> 01:08:52,339
- [Constance clears throat]
- [stammers] And my genius wife.

757
01:08:52,424 --> 01:08:54,974
My beautiful, genius wife.

758
01:08:58,221 --> 01:09:01,221
[dogs barking]

759
01:09:25,457 --> 01:09:26,457
Haw!

760
01:09:28,710 --> 01:09:29,710
Haw!

761
01:09:41,806 --> 01:09:43,806
[rumbling]

762
01:09:47,979 --> 01:09:49,019
Hike up!

763
01:10:24,516 --> 01:10:25,516
Hike up!

764
01:10:30,188 --> 01:10:31,518
Up! Up! Up!

765
01:11:00,301 --> 01:11:01,301
Run!

766
01:11:10,395 --> 01:11:11,475
Hike up!

01:11:37,589 --> 01:11:38,799
- [grunts]
- [yelps]

768
01:11:38,882 --> 01:11:40,882
Togo! Hike up! Go!

769
01:11:48,975 --> 01:11:49,975
Good dog!

770
01:11:51,519 --> 01:11:53,019
Good dog!

771
01:11:54,564 --> 01:11:55,944
Run puppies!

772
01:12:05,992 --> 01:12:06,992
We made it.

773
01:12:09,954 --> 01:12:11,414
We made it!

774
01:12:14,876 --> 01:12:16,586
Whoa! Whoa!

775
01:12:20,799 --> 01:12:22,219
[barks]

776
01:13:09,973 --> 01:13:12,643
No matter what happens, forgive me.

777
01:13:18,481 --> 01:13:21,191
Hike up, Togo! Hike!

778
01:13:25,530 --> 01:13:26,700
[whines]

779
01:13:26,781 --> 01:13:28,621
Hike up! Hike up!

780
01:13:37,334 --> 01:13:38,544
Pull up, Togo!

781
01:13:39,461 --> 01:13:40,631
Pull!

782
01:13:41,671 --> 01:13:42,841
Pull!

783
01:13:43,256 --> 01:13:45,216
No, Fritz. Wait! Wait!

784
01:13:50,764 --> 01:13:52,644
[barking]

785
01:13:57,062 --> 01:13:58,062
Yes!

786
01:14:01,483 --> 01:14:02,573
Yes! Hike!

787
01:14:11,242 --> 01:14:12,242
[screams]

788
01:14:20,043 --> 01:14:21,843

[grunts]

790
01:14:36,101 --> 01:14:38,521
Good boy, Togo! Good dog.

791
01:14:41,314 --> 01:14:42,574
Good dogs, all!

792
01:14:49,155 --> 01:14:50,485
Get up there, puppies.

793
01:15:00,041 --> 01:15:01,381
You know, I can do that.

794
01:15:01,918 --> 01:15:04,048
I'll do it. Drink that.

795
01:15:27,485 --> 01:15:28,485
Why?

796
01:15:32,032 --> 01:15:33,832
[speaking foreign language]

797
01:15:40,498 --> 01:15:42,328
The pine stings her eyes.

798
01:15:52,594 --> 01:15:54,354
[Constance]
Thank you for doing this, Gunnar.

799
01:15:54,387 --> 01:15:55,787
[Gunnar] Anything I can do to help.

800
01:15:56,139 --> 01:15:58,309
My greatest worry is that
he'd be within miles and...

801
01:15:58,391 --> 01:16:00,231
No such thing is going to happen.

802
01:16:00,310 --> 01:16:04,150
Sepp is the best musher I know.
Nothing will stop him from getting home.

803
01:16:04,230 --> 01:16:06,440
If you'll outfit the sled,
I'll start pulling dogs.

804
01:16:06,524 --> 01:16:08,194
No, no, Mrs. Seppala. I can do both.

805
01:16:08,276 --> 01:16:09,436
You should sleep.

806
01:16:09,527 --> 01:16:11,197
I've had my fill of time in the house.

807
01:16:11,279 --> 01:16:14,819
If it's all the same to you,
I'd prefer to fetch dogs.

808
01:16:14,908 --> 01:16:17,908
Sure. And who do you think
I should have in lead?

809
01:16:17,994 --> 01:16:21,414
Fox is the best dog left.
Paired with Balto.

810
01:16:22,415 --> 01:16:23,535
They won't win any races,

811
01:16:23,625 --> 01:16:25,785
but they'll plow through snow
and run home for dinner.

812
01:16:37,347 --> 01:16:38,347
Thank you.

813
01:16:43,561 --> 01:16:45,401
[barking]

814
01:16:47,148 --> 01:16:48,148
Hike up!

815
01:16:49,359 --> 01:16:50,569
Good dogs.

816
01:16:57,117 --> 01:16:59,327
Pass the word
there's chores waiting for him.

817
01:17:00,203 --> 01:17:01,203
Gladly.

818
01:17:06,751 --> 01:17:08,841
Fox, Balto. Hike!

819
01:17:25,478 --> 01:17:26,478
Come with me.

820
01:17:27,105 --> 01:17:28,305
[Seppala] I haven't the time.

821
01:17:29,024 --> 01:17:30,074
Come.

822
01:17:30,150 --> 01:17:31,440
I need to go.

823
01:17:40,201 --> 01:17:41,951
Last night I was worried about you.

824
01:17:43,997 --> 01:17:46,247
Thought you'd bit off
more than you could chew.

825
01:17:48,126 --> 01:17:49,206
Then I saw that.

826
01:17:50,837 --> 01:17:52,167
And asked myself...

827
01:17:53,256 --> 01:17:56,756
"Why should Amituk worry about any man...

828
01:17:58,136 --> 01:18:00,756
who cheats death like this?"

829
01:18:17,655 --> 01:18:19,445
Now, you're gonna ride in the sled.

830
01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:22,330
Even if it's just for 20 miles.

831
01:18:28,375 --> 01:18:31,125
Come now, for once ride in the sled.

832
01:18:33,672 --> 01:18:34,672
Stay.

833
01:18:46,976 --> 01:18:47,976
[grunts]

834
01:18:58,071 --> 01:18:59,071
Hike!

[grunts]

836
01:19:44,034 --> 01:19:45,044
Whoa!

837
01:20:03,136 --> 01:20:07,216
Togo! I'm sorry. I can't help you.

838
01:20:08,016 --> 01:20:09,016
I can't see.

839
01:20:09,726 --> 01:20:11,726
We need to get to the next roadhouse.

840
01:20:12,437 --> 01:20:14,437
Take us to Big Joe. I know you can.

841
01:20:16,024 --> 01:20:17,194
I know you can.

842
01:20:18,068 --> 01:20:20,238
Good dog. Good dog.

843
01:20:21,738 --> 01:20:22,738
Hike up!

01:20:55,397 --> 01:20:56,557
[dog whimpers]

845
01:21:46,322 --> 01:21:47,572
Oh, no.

[groans]

847
01:21:58,835 --> 01:21:59,955
Togo?

848
01:22:05,175 --> 01:22:06,175
Togo?

849
01:22:15,143 --> 01:22:18,153
We can't stop. We must keep going.

850
01:22:18,855 --> 01:22:23,775
Do you understand? We stop, we die.

851
01:22:24,569 --> 01:22:29,989
Listen to me, if you stop, you die.

852
01:22:37,165 --> 01:22:38,665
[creaking]

853
01:22:40,335 --> 01:22:41,745
- [man] Seppala?
- Oh!

854
01:22:43,421 --> 01:22:45,301
- Seppala, is that you?
- Oh, God.

855
01:22:45,382 --> 01:22:47,092
Joe, we're here.

856
01:22:47,175 --> 01:22:48,465
Oh, God.

857
01:22:48,551 --> 01:22:50,391
The serum's in the sled.

858
01:22:54,974 --> 01:22:57,194
You go inside.
I'll get the dogs in the barn.

859
01:22:57,268 --> 01:22:58,808
Thank you. But not him.

860
01:23:02,816 --> 01:23:04,776
You're magnificent.

861
01:23:11,741 --> 01:23:15,701
Magnificent. Magnificent.

862
01:23:16,746 --> 01:23:18,456
Seppala! Inside.

863
01:24:01,207 --> 01:24:02,917
Now, Leonhard, your race is over.

864
01:24:03,752 --> 01:24:04,922
Just have a drink with me.

865
01:24:11,843 --> 01:24:14,513
This one, this one here.

866
01:24:15,180 --> 01:24:18,390
All those miles in this storm,
12 years old.

867
01:24:19,517 --> 01:24:21,307
That's just incredible.

868
01:24:21,394 --> 01:24:22,404
[man] Wish me luck.

869
01:24:46,461 --> 01:24:48,591
[grunting]

870
01:24:54,469 --> 01:24:56,139
[man] Charlie, you made it.

871
01:24:56,221 --> 01:24:58,061
- Here.
- [man] Is this the serum?

872
01:24:58,139 --> 01:24:59,929
- Warm this.
- Aye.

873
01:25:00,016 --> 01:25:01,726
- Good luck, Gunnar.
- Thanks.

874
01:25:01,810 --> 01:25:04,650
My dogs, my dogs, they're... I need help.

875
01:25:52,068 --> 01:25:53,398
There is a sled coming to town.

881
01:26:13,465 --> 01:26:17,755
Sir, I need your name,
for the record, sir.

882
01:26:18,345 --> 01:26:19,635
Gunnar Kaasen.

883
01:26:20,263 --> 01:26:23,023
"Gunnar Kaasen." Excellent.

884
01:26:23,099 --> 01:26:26,189
Now, the lead dog. What's its name?

885
01:26:26,269 --> 01:26:27,899
One's called Fox.

886
01:26:27,979 --> 01:26:29,229
"Fox"?

887
01:26:29,314 --> 01:26:32,654
People will think it's a real fox.
The other one, what's its name?

888
01:26:33,401 --> 01:26:34,531
Balto.

889
01:26:34,611 --> 01:26:37,111
"Balto." Yeah. Perfect.

890
01:26:37,822 --> 01:26:40,372
Hey! Get that dog's photo there.

891
01:26:40,450 --> 01:26:44,200
That's Balto. Champion savior of Nome.

894
01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:38,220
[Joe]
You ought to stay another week, at least.

895
01:27:38,299 --> 01:27:39,469
[Seppala] Look at this.

896
01:27:39,551 --> 01:27:43,511
I know, I just wish
you would allow yourself more...

897
01:27:43,596 --> 01:27:45,556
You've been a fine host, Joe.

898
01:27:45,640 --> 01:27:47,890
You treated me and my dogs like family.

899
01:27:47,976 --> 01:27:49,016
Thank you.

900
01:27:54,566 --> 01:27:55,646
He up to it?

901
01:28:01,573 --> 01:28:02,573
We'll make it.

[dogs barking]

903
01:29:21,736 --> 01:29:23,026
There's a dog in our bedroom.

904
01:29:23,780 --> 01:29:24,860
Yes, there is.

905
01:29:26,991 --> 01:29:28,471
[Constance] There's a dog on our bed.

906
01:29:29,369 --> 01:29:32,209
Yes. There is.

907
01:30:11,828 --> 01:30:12,908
You should've woke me.

908
01:30:13,997 --> 01:30:16,077
You had him to yourself long enough.

909
01:30:17,042 --> 01:30:18,882
Then again,
to hear the newspapers tell it,

910
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,880
you never left the house.
It was all Balto and Gunnar.

911
01:30:21,963 --> 01:30:23,053
We have company.

912
01:30:25,717 --> 01:30:28,547
[dogs barking]

913
01:30:35,185 --> 01:30:37,805
If you like pears, these'll put
a smile on your face, I think.

914
01:30:37,896 --> 01:30:39,186
Thank you, Eileen. Come in.

915
01:30:40,315 --> 01:30:43,815
Ah, bacon.
It's the best I ever made right here.

916
01:30:43,902 --> 01:30:45,362
- Thank you, Bill.
- [Bill chuckles]

917
01:30:47,030 --> 01:30:48,030
Hey, Sepp!

918
01:30:48,656 --> 01:30:49,866
Really, this is too much.

919
01:30:50,658 --> 01:30:52,038
Oh, it's not nearly enough.

920
01:30:55,455 --> 01:30:56,655
[Constance] Good morning, Dan.

921
01:30:56,998 --> 01:30:57,998
[grunts]

922
01:30:58,333 --> 01:30:59,753
Morning, Constance.

923
01:30:59,834 --> 01:31:00,884
Sepp.

924
01:31:01,503 --> 01:31:06,633
So, I had some furs laying around
and I stuffed them with straw.

925
01:31:06,716 --> 01:31:09,716
You know, something for between him
and the cold floor.

926
01:31:10,470 --> 01:31:11,720
Hey, Togo.

927
01:31:11,805 --> 01:31:13,215
I made something for you.

928
01:31:15,558 --> 01:31:16,938
Well, go on. Give it a try.

929
01:31:19,104 --> 01:31:20,114
Go on.

930
01:31:32,242 --> 01:31:34,702
Thank you, Dan.
Have a seat. I'll bring you some coffee.

931
01:31:35,662 --> 01:31:38,672
Uh, no. No, I mean, I'd love to,

932
01:31:38,748 --> 01:31:42,668
but I have my own dogs to attend,

933
01:31:42,752 --> 01:31:44,632
so thank you.

934
01:31:47,257 --> 01:31:48,257
Sepp.

935
01:31:52,762 --> 01:31:53,762
[Mayor] Morning, Dan.

936
01:31:54,597 --> 01:31:56,427
- Knock-knock.
- Hello, Mayor. Come in.

937
01:31:59,060 --> 01:32:00,100
That all right, then?

938
01:32:00,186 --> 01:32:01,686
Sepp, thank you so much.

939
01:32:02,856 --> 01:32:04,976
[woman 1] We appreciate
everything you've done for us.

940
01:32:05,734 --> 01:32:07,253
[woman 2] Ever so grateful, Mr. Seppala.

941
01:32:07,277 --> 01:32:09,437
- [woman 3] Thank you so much.
- [Constance] Thank you.

942
01:32:19,998 --> 01:32:21,038
[knocking on door]

943
01:32:21,124 --> 01:32:22,464
[Constance groans]

944
01:32:23,293 --> 01:32:24,673
No, it's too much.

945
01:32:38,058 --> 01:32:41,558
Hi, Sally. Hello, Dev.
Won't you please come in?

946
01:32:48,485 --> 01:32:50,105
- [Seppala] For me?
- [Sally] Mm-hmm.

947
01:32:55,658 --> 01:32:56,868
[Sally] It's Togo.

948
01:32:57,285 --> 01:32:58,365
Thank you.

949
01:32:59,579 --> 01:33:02,079
Father carved it, but I painted it.

950
01:33:02,832 --> 01:33:05,592
Well, it's a brilliant likeness, Sally.
Thank you.

951
01:33:13,635 --> 01:33:15,005
[whispers] He likes his ears.

952
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:21,140
Another man would be enjoying all this
but not a private man like yourself.

953
01:33:21,226 --> 01:33:22,476
Am I right?

954
01:33:22,894 --> 01:33:24,830
[Constance whispering]
Do you think he stayed warm outside?

955
01:33:24,854 --> 01:33:27,774
I wouldn't have come myself
if not for her insistence.

956
01:33:27,857 --> 01:33:30,537
- But she wanted to see him...
- [Constance whispering indistinctly]

957
01:33:32,195 --> 01:33:36,825
and I want to be with her at every moment.

958
01:33:36,908 --> 01:33:37,968
[Constance] Around the side.

959
01:33:37,992 --> 01:33:40,622
- Top?
- [Constance] The top.

960
01:33:40,704 --> 01:33:44,624
It's strange. You know, I...
I see her and yet...

961
01:33:45,792 --> 01:33:49,052
I don't know how to describe it,
it's unworldly.

962
01:33:49,671 --> 01:33:50,761
Does that make sense?

963
01:33:52,173 --> 01:33:56,553
Kinda like every moment I'm with her
seems impossible yet...

964
01:33:58,054 --> 01:33:59,144
yet there she is.

965
01:34:05,311 --> 01:34:06,311
[Sally] Mr. Seppala...

966
01:34:07,564 --> 01:34:08,984
is Togo going to die?

967
01:34:16,406 --> 01:34:18,196
[Constance] Leonhard. Leonhard.

968
01:34:21,619 --> 01:34:24,659
Um, excuse me.
I have cake for you both so please stay.

969
01:34:24,748 --> 01:34:26,248
- Okay.
- Please.

970
01:34:28,793 --> 01:34:30,803
Leonhard, come back inside and apologize.

971
01:34:30,879 --> 01:34:32,209
They're guests in our home.

972
01:34:32,297 --> 01:34:34,167
Apologize for me.

973
01:34:34,257 --> 01:34:36,797
She meant no ill by it.
She's just a child.

974
01:34:36,885 --> 01:34:38,795
I know. She spoke the truth.

975
01:34:38,887 --> 01:34:40,927
No, don't say that. He's on the mend.

976
01:34:41,014 --> 01:34:43,984
It's not winter lameness.
He doesn't have a bad paw.

977
01:34:44,059 --> 01:34:46,849
You know. You've seen it before.

978
01:34:50,148 --> 01:34:51,648
Well, could another dog have lead?

979
01:34:51,733 --> 01:34:53,153
We'll never know.

980
01:34:53,234 --> 01:34:56,074
Well, I think you should consider a world
where Dev has no child

981
01:34:56,154 --> 01:34:57,494
and I have no husband.

982
01:34:57,572 --> 01:35:00,952
Everything you ever tried to warn me about
has come true.

983
01:35:03,870 --> 01:35:05,250
I have run him to death.

984
01:35:06,831 --> 01:35:07,961
I have.

985
01:35:10,085 --> 01:35:12,085
And I'm not at all prepared.

986
01:35:26,101 --> 01:35:27,101
[sniffs]

987
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:37,780
[barking]

988
01:35:47,330 --> 01:35:49,330
[whimpering]

989
01:36:21,489 --> 01:36:23,779
[whines]

990
01:36:32,167 --> 01:36:33,287
Be safe.

991
01:36:51,644 --> 01:36:53,564
[Togo whining]

992
01:36:58,151 --> 01:36:59,691
[Seppala inhales]

993
01:36:59,778 --> 01:37:00,898
I have to go.

994
01:37:02,655 --> 01:37:03,865
I have to go to work.

995
01:37:06,326 --> 01:37:07,406
Forgive me.

996
01:37:15,502 --> 01:37:16,922
[whining]

997
01:37:26,054 --> 01:37:28,644
Togo. Togo! Hey. Come.

998
01:37:29,307 --> 01:37:31,727
[dogs barking]

999
01:37:42,153 --> 01:37:43,993
- Togo! Hey! Come.
- [barking]

1000
01:37:44,072 --> 01:37:46,372
Come now.
Togo, come now. Come.

1001
01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:48,910
Togo! Come. Calm down.

1002
01:37:51,287 --> 01:37:52,287
Hike up!

1003
01:37:57,460 --> 01:37:58,460
Quiet!

1004
01:37:58,545 --> 01:37:59,745
[barking stops]

1005
01:38:00,547 --> 01:38:03,427
[Togo barking]

1006
01:38:12,308 --> 01:38:15,148
Okay. Hike!

1007
01:38:16,354 --> 01:38:18,774
[barking continues]

1008
01:38:22,652 --> 01:38:26,112
[whining]

1009
01:38:28,199 --> 01:38:31,409
[barking continues]

1010
01:38:41,338 --> 01:38:42,628
Togo, you want some bacon?

1011
01:38:45,091 --> 01:38:46,681
Good boy. Tog...

1012
01:38:48,553 --> 01:38:51,063
No! No, no, no, no.
No! Togo! Hey!

1013
01:38:51,139 --> 01:38:52,769
Hey! Togo!

1014
01:38:55,435 --> 01:38:57,265
Togo! Togo, come!

1015
01:39:19,626 --> 01:39:20,786
Togo!

1016
01:39:22,921 --> 01:39:24,051
Togo!

1017
01:39:35,892 --> 01:39:36,892
Togo!

1018
01:39:46,069 --> 01:39:47,359
Whoa!

1019
01:40:25,191 --> 01:40:26,361
[sighs]

1020
01:40:41,082 --> 01:40:44,042
[Seppala] It was foolish of me
to think Togo would ever be denied.

1021
01:40:46,629 --> 01:40:49,129
I always thought he lived for the sled.

1022
01:40:50,133 --> 01:40:54,893
When all along, what he lived for was me.

1023
01:41:00,769 --> 01:41:02,769
We resumed the trail.

1024
01:41:02,854 --> 01:41:05,694
We discovered a walk was as good as a run.

1025
01:41:11,196 --> 01:41:14,236
As always, Constance was right.

1026
01:41:14,991 --> 01:41:17,451
Togo had the heart of a survivor.

1027
01:41:18,578 --> 01:41:21,038
Not the storm of the century,

1028
01:41:21,122 --> 01:41:23,582
nor a harrowing serum run could stop him.

1029
01:41:26,878 --> 01:41:29,508
He lived out his golden years
with a new job...

1030
01:41:31,132 --> 01:41:32,432
father.

1031
01:41:33,468 --> 01:41:35,468
[puppies barking]

1032
01:41:39,140 --> 01:41:41,850
For two years he sired pups.

1033
01:41:41,935 --> 01:41:43,935
[growling]

1034
01:41:45,522 --> 01:41:48,442
While the lower 48 celebrated Balto,

1035
01:41:49,150 --> 01:41:53,660
mushers from all over the world
elbowed to get one of Togo's line.

1036
01:41:54,781 --> 01:41:56,871
Kennels from Fairbanks to Maine

1037
01:41:56,950 --> 01:42:00,160
bred what came to be known
as Seppala Siberians.

1038
01:42:01,287 --> 01:42:05,287
A breed valued for their intelligence,
stamina, courage,

1039
01:42:05,375 --> 01:42:10,205
but most of all, their good nature
and uncommon bond with humans.

1040
01:42:19,764 --> 01:42:22,274
He left us on a Thursday in December.

1041
01:42:28,940 --> 01:42:31,230
Constance and I continued
working with dogs

1042
01:42:31,317 --> 01:42:34,237
because if you're around them
long enough...

1043
01:42:34,320 --> 01:42:35,320
Whoa!

1044
01:42:35,405 --> 01:42:36,985
...they tend to get under your skin.

1045
01:42:38,908 --> 01:42:41,748
And if you're lucky enough
to have known a great one,

1046
01:42:42,620 --> 01:42:44,120
they never really leave.

1047
01:42:45,749 --> 01:42:48,629
They stay with you as long as you live.

1048
01:42:50,003 --> 01:42:51,763
Harnessed to your heart,

1049
01:42:51,838 --> 01:42:53,548
giving their all...

1050
01:42:59,888 --> 01:43:00,888
Hike!

1051
01:43:04,017 --> 01:43:05,267
Always.
