What happened in the previous episode of When Hope Calls?
In “Bringing to Light,” last week’s Season 2 penultimate episode of When Hope Calls, when Sam’s (Jon McLaren) claim was denied after an existing claim is unearthed, Nora (Cindy Busby) and Mountie Fletcher (Christopher Russell) headed to Franklin to investigate the dubious claim. They discovered that the claimant, Rufus Shepherd, is actually a German Shepherd named Rufus!
Hannah (Sarah Fisher) attempted to get a line of credit for the ranch, but learned of a stipulation the bank had written into the contract regarding Wyatt (Nick Bateman) as foreman. This caused Hannah some concern until she was able to convince Wyatt to sign a year long contract guaranteeing he’ll stay on as foreman.
Lillian (Morgan Kohan) sent help to the orphanage in the form of caretaker Miss Ainsworth (Sarah Orenstein), but her methods didn’t mesh well with the children. After one of the kids appeared to be sick and spent time in the care of Nurse Maggie (and her magical lollipops), the other kids then pretended to be sick so they could go to Maggie’s and be far away from Miss Ainsworth.
After cattle began to disappear in record numbers from more than one farmer’s lands, Lucie Clay (Kalinka Petrie) and Wyatt (Nick Bateman) discovered that both have had cattle go missing on their respective ranches, and the loss of cattle isn’t from wolves or cougars, but from poachers. And Sam, who was down in the dumps over having his land claim denied, had renewed vigor when he learned that Nora was successful in getting his claim approved. Mountie Fletcher adopted Rufus the German Shepherd as his new “deputy”.

What happens in this week’s episode of When Hope Calls?
In “Season of Change,” the Season 2 finale of When Hope Calls, the town gets an opportunity to celebrate one of their own. While Maggie and Sam are trying to keep the news of his good fortune on the down-low, it turns out pretty much everyone in the town is in on the news. Ronnie (Neil Crone), always looking to make money, finds an opportunity to do so with Sam’s newfound fortune. Later, the town comes together to celebrate while love blooms, but for whom exactly? The Mounties and the ranchers team up to protect the rancher’s land from poachers and on of their own may be put in mortal danger. Trevor Donovan and Rob Stewart appear as guest stars in the finale.
Will there be a Season 3 of When Hope Calls?
At the time of this writing, there has been no word from Great American Family if there will be a third season. We certainly hope that they’ll make an announcement soon and that we won’t have to wait another six years for the next season!
