00:00:01But it would hurt my feelings if you delivered my first grandson without me.
00:00:05I'll be back in plenty of time.
00:00:07And I'm counting on you.
00:00:09Keep good thoughts, the baby.
00:00:12We'll see you in a few weeks, Mother.
00:00:13All right, Peter Watson, you drive slowly and easily.
00:00:18And avoid the ruts in the bus.
00:00:21Annie and my grandson do not need to be jostled around like a sack of potatoes.
00:00:26Yes, ma'am.
00:00:30I got it for you, Joe.
00:00:31Yes, sir!
00:00:32Skip up!
00:01:00It just feels awful sometimes.
00:01:15What exactly are you feeling?
00:01:17I don't mean to complain, doctor, but I'm just plum wore out.
00:01:21Sometimes I can barely keep my head up.
00:01:23And when did you start feeling this way?
00:01:25When I had my youngest.
00:01:26About five months ago.
00:01:32Your mouth, please.
00:01:39Cums are very pale, Mabel.
00:01:41You haven't noticed when you look in the mirror?
00:01:43I'm not sure I know what they're supposed to look like.
00:01:45Well, I think you have anemia, which means you don't have enough iron in your body.
00:01:48It's common with new mothers.
00:01:50When the baby was inside of you, he took most of your iron.
00:01:53So it's nothing serious, then?
00:01:55Oh, it's very serious.
00:01:56What took you so long to come to me?
00:01:58Well, you see, my husband doesn't think I'm really sick.
00:02:01He says I'm just lazy.
00:02:03You take care of six children and a husband while you work harder than he does.
00:02:07Lloyd's a good man, Doc Owens.
00:02:08Really, he is.
00:02:09He just don't trust doctors.
00:02:11Not since his sister died.
00:02:13Is there a tonic I can take for this anemia?
00:02:16There is a tonic, but eating vegetables would be much more effective.
00:02:19Lloyd doesn't really like all those vegetables.
00:02:22He prefers his meat and potatoes.
00:02:33I take two spoonfuls twice a day and come and see me in a week.
00:02:38It's very important that my coming to see you is kept private.
00:02:41What goes on between a doctor and a patient is always very private.
00:02:57Hello, Lee.
00:02:58Hey there, Reverend.
00:02:59You're eating that bronc of yours saddled all day?
00:03:01Well, I'm just trying to wear him down for the ride home.
00:03:05You're here early, you're here late.
00:03:07Sometimes I don't know if I'm coming or going.
00:03:09Aren't you expecting company?
00:03:11My wife's best friend from medical school.
00:03:13Well, she should get here any day now.
00:03:14I was referring to that apprentice of yours.
00:03:16He should be here on Thursday's stage.
00:03:18I'll leave you to your work, Lee.
00:03:21Have a good day, Reverend.
00:03:23Take your hand to the doctor.
00:03:27All finished?
00:03:29It'll be $2 for the doctor and 50 cents for the medicine.
00:03:32I'm sorry your husband doesn't allow me any extra money.
00:03:46I have to use the sock money I've saved up.
00:03:49Why don't we just call it a dollar even?
00:03:53That's very kind of you.
00:03:55Don't mention it, Mrs. McQueen.
00:03:56Tell her I'll be fine with that medicine.
00:03:57I will absolutely.
00:03:58It's very good to see you.
00:03:59Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:04:00Now you take care of yourself.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:02All right, pal.
00:04:03What's going on?
00:04:04Let's have a nice, easy ride today.
00:04:05I don't want any more of that funny business.
00:04:07Here it comes.
00:04:08Here it comes.
00:04:09Hey!
00:04:10Hey!
00:04:11Why are you getting excited?
00:04:12Settle down now.
00:04:13Settle down now.
00:04:14Settle down.
00:04:15Easy now.
00:04:16I guess we're still in the learning process.
00:04:17Come on.
00:04:18I don't want any more of that funny business.
00:04:21That's a funny smile.
00:04:24Here it comes.
00:04:26Easy.
00:04:28Hey!
00:04:31Settle down now. Settle.
00:04:34Easy now.
00:04:38I guess we're still in the learning process.
00:04:42Come on.
00:04:48Aunt Annie's here.
00:04:59Aunt Annie!
00:05:01Oh, Lily and my love.
00:05:02No.
00:05:04She looks wonderful, doesn't she, Pop?
00:05:06Sure, she looks very round.
00:05:10I'm so glad you and Uncle Peter are here.
00:05:12Oh, let me get that.
00:05:13Oh, it's fine.
00:05:15If everyone treats me like a China doll, I'm not going to break.
00:05:18I'm so glad you came.
00:05:21Me too.
00:05:23I can't tell you how much I appreciate you looking after Annie while I'm away.
00:05:27I didn't want to take a surveying job this close to her having a baby, but we need the money.
00:05:33I'll be back in plenty of time.
00:05:35But you're mine at ease, Pete.
00:05:36We're happy to have her.
00:05:37My mother would have stayed with Annie.
00:05:39But I wanted to come visit my best friend and her family before the baby comes.
00:05:43And we're so glad you did.
00:05:45How are things done at the clinic?
00:05:46Like broken bones and bee stings, anything a nursing student could handle.
00:05:50Don't let her fool you in, Annie.
00:05:52The town loves Mom.
00:05:53They wouldn't know what to do without her.
00:05:54Those are very kind words, Lillian, but they're hardly true.
00:05:59Well, how about I start cleaning and Lee will help them get settled in for the night?
00:06:03All right, son.
00:06:19It's good having Annie here.
00:06:21It is.
00:06:23She's your best friend, isn't she?
00:06:25I'd like to think of you as my very best friend.
00:06:27Why don't you tell your very best friend where you are?
00:06:30I'm right here.
00:06:32Well, you seem like you're a hundred miles away.
00:06:35I'm just tired.
00:06:36You sure that's all there is to it?
00:06:40What's wrong?
00:06:41I'm not pregnant.
00:06:43Don't worry yourself about it.
00:06:45We've tried for so long.
00:06:47We have more than we can handle it, Lill.
00:06:49Oh, I know, but...
00:06:53It's just that when Annie found out the news, it made me want a baby of her own even more.
00:07:00And...
00:07:00Now that she's staying with us...
00:07:04No.
00:07:08We are going to have a beautiful baby of our own.
00:07:12And all good things come in God's time, and...
00:07:16Maybe we should just let him decide.
00:07:18What if he doesn't want us to have a baby?
00:07:29Hey.
00:07:31Come on.
00:07:33Let's go help Lill finish the dishes.
00:07:35Hmm?
00:07:48I guess I'd best believe him now.
00:07:51Peter, please be careful.
00:07:52Yes.
00:07:53My level and compass are dangerous pieces of equipment.
00:07:57I love you.
00:07:58I love you, too.
00:08:03Bye, ladies.
00:08:04Take good care of my Annie.
00:08:05We'll be.
00:08:08Step up!
00:08:08Boy, are you all right?
00:08:20I don't know.
00:08:22Ha!
00:08:23Oh, no!
00:08:25No!
00:08:25No!
00:08:27Oh, please!
00:08:30Oh!
00:08:31Oh, oh!
00:08:33Easy!
00:08:33Well, a lot of time, isn't it?
00:08:38Bags?
00:08:39Got it.
00:08:40Check on the team, Mike.
00:08:43Welcome home, darling.
00:08:44Oh.
00:08:45You!
00:08:46How's the trip?
00:08:48Yes!
00:08:49You must be Joshua Coyle.
00:08:58Yes, sir.
00:08:59Who are you always?
00:09:00Welcome, Saxton.
00:09:02How's your trip?
00:09:03Couldn't believe how far it was just to get here.
00:09:05Nothing but wide open spaces.
00:09:07Is this your first time away from home?
00:09:08Yes, sir.
00:09:09Well, Saxton's a nice little town.
00:09:12I hope you like it.
00:09:13I expect so.
00:09:14Can I help you with your things?
00:09:16Don't have much.
00:09:17All right?
00:09:19Come on, let me show you the shop.
00:09:21Sounds good.
00:09:23So we do a little bit of everything here.
00:09:26Liberty work and rolling stock.
00:09:29Custom work for the building trade.
00:09:32Now, when your blows are even and you can work a straight piece of metal, those will be your tools.
00:09:37It's hard work.
00:09:39But you managed to make something that lasts a generation or two.
00:09:42You know, it gives you a sense of pride.
00:09:44I reckon that's true.
00:09:45What do you say?
00:09:48You ready to get started?
00:09:49Yes, sir.
00:09:50All right, then.
00:09:59How was your walk?
00:10:01I'm carrying around a 30-pound sack of flour.
00:10:05Slow day?
00:10:05Oh, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before someone comes in from getting caught on a rusty nail or falling off a ladder.
00:10:12You know, when I was traveling through Selena last month, there was a rash of copperhead snake bites.
00:10:17It felt like every day someone was dragged into the clinic.
00:10:20Look, I haven't had anything as exciting as a snake bite in months.
00:10:24You should be grateful to have a healthy community to serve.
00:10:27It's our job as doctors to care about even the most minor illness or affliction.
00:10:32And our patients deserve and need our compassion.
00:10:35That's right out of a textbook.
00:10:39Linda, are you sure there isn't anything you'd like to talk to me about?
00:10:42You can tell me anything.
00:10:43You know that.
00:10:46Oh!
00:10:48What is it?
00:10:50It's a quick, sharp pain and shortness of breath and minor faintness.
00:10:55Let's get you to an examination.
00:10:56It's not necessary.
00:10:58Is the baby moving?
00:10:59It isn't that.
00:11:02It's nothing to be concerned about.
00:11:04Let me finish some things up and we'll get you home.
00:11:12You know, my pa says walking's good for a man's constitution.
00:11:16You always walk?
00:11:18Well, legally, I've been riding.
00:11:20You walking to my camp?
00:11:21No.
00:11:22I got a horse to give to Will and he's still a little green.
00:11:28Pesty.
00:11:29I've been breaking him, getting ready for her to ride.
00:11:33Figured I'd give him and me the day off.
00:11:36I know nothing to saddle horses.
00:11:38Only harness, bro.
00:11:39I stick with wagons.
00:11:41You'd better pour it.
00:11:43I really wish you would just sit down after what happened today.
00:11:47What happened today?
00:11:48Absolutely nothing to be concerned about.
00:11:50And that's coming from your doctor, Amy.
00:11:53When you go home, who will deliver your baby?
00:11:55My mother-in-law.
00:11:56She's a midwife.
00:11:57Well, I wish I was the one delivering your baby.
00:11:59It's a doctor's job after all.
00:12:01I'm sure it's going to be fine.
00:12:06Ladies, if you don't mind, I brought home a guest for supper.
00:12:08And you must be Joshua.
00:12:17Welcome to our home.
00:12:18Very nice to meet you, Ms. Owens.
00:12:19Uh, that's Dr. Owens.
00:12:23You're a doctor?
00:12:24Yes.
00:12:24As is my best friend, Dr. Annie Watson.
00:12:27It's a pleasure to meet you, Joshua.
00:12:28Ma'am.
00:12:30It's funny.
00:12:31I just had no idea women were allowed to be doctors.
00:12:34Allowed?
00:12:35No, I just...
00:12:35And just who do we need permission from?
00:12:37Go easy on them, Lil.
00:12:38He just got here.
00:12:39I'm sure he's aware of what women can accomplish.
00:12:43Apparently not.
00:12:48That's our daughter, Lillian.
00:12:49We raised her to speak her mind.
00:12:51You'll get used to it.
00:12:54Oh, now.
00:12:56Let's go get washed up.
00:12:58Smells like my favorite.
00:13:01Well, she certainly is your daughter.
00:13:03Indeed.
00:13:17Ms. Owens?
00:13:19Mr. Coyle?
00:13:21I just want you to know...
00:13:23I meant no disrespect earlier.
00:13:26I would express an opinion, but I'm not sure I'm allowed.
00:13:30Well, I'd very much like to hear your opinions.
00:13:34I think you're very old-fashioned.
00:13:36Women can pursue any career they want these days.
00:13:38They already have female lawyers, doctors, and ministers.
00:13:40A town in Kansas even had a woman mayor.
00:13:42I have no objections to your mother and aunt being doctors.
00:13:45I swear.
00:13:47It's just...
00:13:48Well...
00:13:49I've never met a lady doctor before.
00:13:51I'm apologizing.
00:13:53I guess I'm just not doing a very good job.
00:13:55Apology accepted.
00:14:01I'll leave you to your schoolwork.
00:14:03Well, this isn't for school.
00:14:05So you read for fun?
00:14:06I'd read just about all day if Mom and Pa let me.
00:14:10Well, all right.
00:14:11I'll leave you to your book, Ms. Owens.
00:14:17Good night, Mr. Coyle.
00:14:18Nice young man.
00:14:34I hadn't noticed.
00:14:38Good night, pumpkin.
00:14:41Good night, Pa.
00:14:42Come in.
00:15:00How are you?
00:15:01I feel so...
00:15:02It's all right.
00:15:14I can't get...
00:15:17It's okay.
00:15:19Yeah.
00:15:20Can we just sit here?
00:15:22Just...
00:15:23I think Lou's suit is...
00:15:26It's okay.
00:15:27It's okay.
00:15:27It's okay.
00:15:27It's okay.
00:15:27It's okay.
00:15:28It's okay.
00:15:28It's okay.
00:15:29It's okay.
00:15:29It's okay.
00:15:30It's okay.
00:15:30It's okay.
00:15:32It's okay.
00:15:34This is...
00:15:36This is...
00:15:37It's morning.
00:15:51I don't know.
00:15:58Okay.
00:16:00Wow, it's always really low.
00:16:30Wow, it's always really low.
00:17:00Wow, it's always really low.
00:17:30It's always really low.
00:17:33Let him know I think it's best that Annie stay here for the remainder of her pregnancy.
00:17:37Bed rest is crucial.
00:17:38Well, I made it all.
00:17:39Why are his mother?
00:17:40You said she lives in Spartan.
00:17:44Do you really think this is necessary?
00:17:50Total rest for you, Mrs. Watson, and a dark room is conducive to rest.
00:17:54To being lazy, you mean.
00:17:55I cannot just lay around all day.
00:17:58I'm a doctor, remember?
00:17:59But I am your doctor and this is my home.
00:18:01And if it is enclampsia, you know bed rest is called for.
00:18:04Don't you think you're overreacting?
00:18:06Perhaps.
00:18:07But if I'm not, I won't be sorry later.
00:18:10I love you.
00:18:12I love you too.
00:18:14Prepare for my peach.
00:18:22Are you sure you don't want me to stay home with Aunt Annie?
00:18:27No, you just run along to school.
00:18:29I'll post a note on the clinic and if someone really needs me, they know where to find me.
00:18:33Morning, ladies.
00:18:35Morning.
00:18:37Bye, Ma.
00:18:38Have a good day, darling.
00:18:39Bye, Ma.
00:18:40Bye.
00:18:41That girl kicks up a cloud of dust everywhere she goes.
00:18:45Here you go.
00:18:49Is this your way of telling me not to come home for supper?
00:18:51The other one is for Joshua.
00:18:53A young man just starting off looked like he could use a few more good meals.
00:18:57Do you have any idea how much I love you?
00:18:59Well, it never hurts to hear it.
00:19:05I love you too, Lee Owens.
00:19:07Oh, and don't forget to send the telegrams.
00:19:09Alright.
00:19:11Have a good day, sweet darling.
00:19:13Belinda feels Annie's health as well as the baby's is better served staying here until after the delivery.
00:19:29I have wired Peter the same message.
00:19:31Lee Owens.
00:19:32I appreciate it.
00:19:43Dr. Olsen.
00:19:44Mr. McQueen.
00:19:45Sorry, we're closed today, but if you'd like to make an appointment.
00:19:48Were you the one that gave Mabel this tonic?
00:19:50Yes, it's iron for her anemia.
00:19:52Why you got to go telling her she's got this and that condition?
00:19:55What she has is a spell of laziness.
00:19:57Mabel is sick, Mr. McQueen.
00:19:59Give her that medicine.
00:20:00I don't need your magic potion.
00:20:02A doctor killed my sister with tonic.
00:20:05I don't know the details of your sister's death, but there's no magic to it.
00:20:10Your wife had a baby a month ago and she has a very serious medical condition.
00:20:14Maybe if you weren't so hard-headed, you would realize that.
00:20:17Now, my advice would...
00:20:18I don't need your mouth nor your advice, and I don't need your magic potion.
00:20:22Doctor's not worth it.
00:20:23Who do you holler?
00:20:28Are you all right, Belinda?
00:20:30Yes, I'm just frustrated at a very stubborn and hard-headed man.
00:20:34Lloyd McQueen is truly set in his ways, but he's still a child of our maker.
00:20:39He has no compassion for his wife's condition.
00:20:41Can't we all get caught up in our own lives at times and lose sight of the compassion we should have?
00:20:46for others?
00:20:48There I go preaching again.
00:20:50Oh, it's all right.
00:20:51I suppose I needed to hear it.
00:20:53I'll see you in church, Belinda.
00:20:55Good day.
00:21:08That's just steady blows.
00:21:10All right.
00:21:16Your daughter seems very smart, Mr. Owens.
00:21:18Almost run in the family.
00:21:21I wish I could take credit for Lillian's intelligence, but she was adopted.
00:21:26Still, I couldn't be prouder.
00:21:28Really?
00:21:29Hmm.
00:21:30I never would have known.
00:21:31I mean, she and Mrs., I mean, Dr. Owens, sort of look alike.
00:21:35Is that a fact?
00:21:37Yeah, I mean, it's just Lillian's very pretty.
00:21:40Yeah, I know she's pretty.
00:21:42I'm truthfully not that hungry.
00:21:57Doctor's orders.
00:21:59Even if you don't feel up to it, you need to finish the entire wall.
00:22:02I'm not a child, Belinda.
00:22:04And I'm a doctor.
00:22:05I think I know what's best for me.
00:22:07Knowing and doing are two entirely different things.
00:22:11Is that another contraction?
00:22:14No, the baby's just kicking.
00:22:16And I have to tell you, I'm a little relieved.
00:22:18I haven't felt him move since the contractions yesterday.
00:22:21You just said it was...
00:22:23He?
00:22:24How do you know it's a boy?
00:22:26I know it sounds silly, but Mary thinks because I'm carrying so low that it'll be a boy.
00:22:30It is silly.
00:22:32That's an old wives' tale.
00:22:33There's no medical merit to it.
00:22:35Say what you want, but when Peter's sister was pregnant, Mary was concerned because she was carrying so far out in front.
00:22:40She said it would be a breached birth, and she was right.
00:22:44One lucky guess, and she's got you believing made-up stories.
00:22:47Goodness, he's getting his exercise today.
00:22:50Do you want to feel?
00:22:51That's all right.
00:22:53Come on, Belinda.
00:22:54Don't be nervous.
00:22:55It's so strange.
00:23:00I never thought I'd be a mother.
00:23:03It suddenly feels like the most natural thing in the world.
00:23:10I'm sorry.
00:23:11I've opened that wound, haven't I?
00:23:14Maybe we shouldn't talk about it.
00:23:16You know, I know so many women that have gotten pregnant without even trying.
00:23:20And Lee and I have been trying.
00:23:22We've both seen it take some time.
00:23:24You just can't get impatient with yourself.
00:23:28I look after this one woman, Mabel McQueen.
00:23:31She's had six babies in the past eight years without even trying.
00:23:34It's important to you, isn't it?
00:23:41We best get supper ready.
00:23:42Lee and Lillian will be home soon.
00:23:45I'm here to talk whenever you'd like to.
00:23:49Please eat your soup, Annie.
00:24:04I was wondering where you'd run off to.
00:24:13I just looked in on Annie.
00:24:14She's out for the night.
00:24:16She keeps insisting she feels fine.
00:24:21I think I've heard that before.
00:24:24You two are so much alike, it's frightening.
00:24:28I suppose it's why we're such good friends.
00:24:30I noticed you didn't have Joshua over for supper tonight.
00:24:35I'm pretty sure he's sweet on Lil.
00:24:38I don't want the two of them spending too much time together.
00:24:42Why not? He's only a couple years older.
00:24:44Doc, he's an apprentice blacksmith. I want better for Lillian.
00:24:48I'm the wife of a blacksmith and you don't hear me complaining.
00:24:51I spent the last five years trying to figure out how I tricked you into marrying me.
00:24:55You could have done much better.
00:24:57You didn't trick me into anything.
00:24:58I married you because I fell in love with you, Leones.
00:25:02And if Lillian and Joshua had taken interest in one another, I don't think it's our place to stand in their way.
00:25:08Besides, telling Lillian she can't have somethings.
00:25:11Like daring to try to stop her.
00:25:13I get your point. I don't want to get in the way of her happiness.
00:25:21Still, you left a small town to follow your dream.
00:25:25And if Lil wants to go to college, I darn sure want to see it happen.
00:25:28I don't want her tied down to Saxon.
00:25:34I hope she knows what a wonderful and caring father she has.
00:25:40It's getting a little chilly. Want to turn in for the night?
00:25:43You go ahead. I'll be up in a little while.
00:25:44Don't be in such a hurry, pretty lady.
00:25:52Please allow me to pass.
00:25:54We need to get to know each other.
00:25:56I think not. I don't want to be late for school.
00:25:58I can teach you more than any school can.
00:25:59Excuse me.
00:26:02You mind letting the young lady pass?
00:26:03This ain't none of your affairs, Sod Buster.
00:26:04Ah, but it is.
00:26:08But it is.
00:26:10What?
00:26:12Don't be in such a hurry, pretty lady.
00:26:14Don't be in such a hurry, pretty lady.
00:26:16Please allow me to pass.
00:26:18We need to get to know each other.
00:26:21I think not.
00:26:23I don't want to be late for school.
00:26:25I can teach you more than any school can.
00:26:27Excuse me.
00:26:28It ain't
00:26:36Now you hold on a second now the good book tells me to turn the other cheek now only have to
00:26:41After the second I'm on my own
00:26:50That was the second cheek
00:26:52Well, I understand there's a fine doctor
00:26:54Yeah, please don't please don't break I trust
00:26:57I'll never see you around miss Owens again. No never good
00:27:13Morning miss Owens on your way to school. I am may I walk with you?
00:27:27I did the best I could Jim, but go easy on it. All right
00:27:31Your boss strikes me as a hard-working man
00:27:45He lives and breathes work. Ma says sometimes he rolls open to sleep and tries to use their arms like a set of tongs
00:27:51I guess that's the future I have to look forward to
00:27:54It's not such a bad life really
00:27:59So what about you?
00:28:01A doctor like your Ma?
00:28:03I don't know
00:28:05I haven't decided
00:28:06Maybe I want to be a lawyer or a famous writer like Harriet Beecher Stowe
00:28:10One thing for sure. I want to go to college
00:28:13Well, I better get to work
00:28:15Have a nice day
00:28:17Joshua
00:28:18You too
00:28:19I don't think you should be climbing the stairs, but I feel fine
00:28:34What's making me crazy is sitting in a dark room all day, but it's only been three days since you had pain and felt faint
00:28:40You know the symptoms and treatment as well as I do. That's assuming your diagnosis is correct
00:28:49Is that singing I would know that voice anywhere that's Mary your mother-in-law. What reason does she have to be here?
00:28:56Mary doesn't need a reason to do anything
00:29:10Well, this must be it
00:29:12Well, this must be it
00:29:16Thank you my good man
00:29:18And you have a blessed day
00:29:22And you must be the infamous Doc Owen's infamous
00:29:26Mary Watson
00:29:28Oh, she knew that already
00:29:30Now where is my peach pie?
00:29:32Uh-oh
00:29:34Would you be a dear and bring my thing along?
00:29:44Mary, what are you doing here?
00:29:46Where else would you expect me to be? Oh, my little lamb
00:29:48What? But didn't you get the telegraph from Belinda's husband?
00:29:50I did. That's why I'm here
00:29:52I have nothing against you finishing out your term with your friend
00:29:56But I certainly wasn't going to miss the birth of my first grandson
00:30:00I've missed you
00:30:02Oh, it's darker than the inside of a cow in here
00:30:05Yes, it is
00:30:06Oh, please don't do that
00:30:07What?
00:30:08She's not a mushroom. She needs light
00:30:10All right, let's sit up so I can get a good look
00:30:14I'm sorry, what are you doing?
00:30:16I'm getting her upright
00:30:17If she stays in this bed too long
00:30:19She'll get a crick in her back
00:30:21And it'll make delivery much more painful
00:30:23I think it's better that she's on bed rest for the remainder of her term
00:30:26It's not going to hurt her to sit up
00:30:29When you've delivered as many babies as I have
00:30:32You learn a few things
00:30:33Well, I've been to medical school for years
00:30:35And rest is the proper treatment
00:30:37You don't learn everything in medical school
00:30:40That is a matter of opinion and I wholeheartedly disagree
00:30:43Ladies, I'm not a sack of flour
00:30:47There I was in the middle of the worst blizzard I ever saw
00:30:58I wasn't too surprised when three babies were delivered that night
00:31:04I expected twins, not triplets
00:31:08In a blizzard?
00:31:09The little ones pop out whenever they want, regardless of the weather
00:31:13Fortunately, I don't have many emergencies
00:31:16Women giving birth are always an emergency
00:31:21That's the penalty we pay for Eve eating the apple
00:31:25It is not a penalty
00:31:27Wow, Mrs. Watson, you sure got an exciting life
00:31:29Well, I should probably get you up to your room, Annie
00:31:33You let that little fella start running your life now
00:31:36You'll be lacing his shoes when he's 30
00:31:39Yes, Annie told me you believe it's a boy
00:31:41Believe? Nothing!
00:31:42It's a fact!
00:31:44Honestly, Mary, you can't possibly-
00:31:46Actually, I am a little tired
00:31:48I'm gonna go to bed
00:31:50I can manage on my own
00:31:52Good night, all
00:31:53Good night, Annie
00:31:55Rest well, dear
00:31:56Good night, Annie
00:31:57Good night, Annie
00:31:59There is no way to tell whether-
00:32:04Oh, I think it's time we all settle down
00:32:06Huh?
00:32:07We'll have a full day tomorrow
00:32:11Thank you for dinner, Dr. Holmes
00:32:16Joshua
00:32:19William told us that you came to our rescue
00:32:21Our mother and I both appreciate it
00:32:23It was my pleasure, sir
00:32:25Thank you again
00:32:29I'll walk you out
00:32:40Aren't they the most adorable couple?
00:32:43So tell me
00:32:46How was Captain Nemo this evening?
00:32:48When I left him, he was exploring the ruins of Atlantis
00:32:51Although I can't say for sure what he does when I'm not looking
00:32:54I never met a girl who made a book sound so interesting
00:32:57You can borrow it if you like
00:32:59Oh, no, I'm not sure if I'm sold on Nemo just yet
00:33:02Maybe you could read some of it to me, though
00:33:04Just so I can find out if it's my kind of story
00:33:07I could do that
00:33:08Would you like to go on a picnic with me?
00:33:11Maybe on Saturday
00:33:13We can go out and find a nice quiet spot and read
00:33:17I think I know just the place
00:33:19Lee Owens, you are not spying on our only daughter
00:33:22I'm not spying on her
00:33:23I'm just looking out for her
00:33:31Good night
00:33:32I see what you got there
00:33:41Well, you're really improving
00:33:45Thank you, sir
00:33:47Trying my best to impress you
00:34:00As long as it's me you're trying to impress
00:34:02Well, to be honest
00:34:04I wanted to ask you
00:34:05Maybe, um...
00:34:06Lily and I...
00:34:07Do you want permission to court Lily?
00:34:08Right?
00:34:09Yes, sir
00:34:10Well, I don't want her to distract her from her goals
00:34:12I promise I'll be respectful of her
00:34:13and not get in the way of her schooling
00:34:14I know how much she wants to go to college
00:34:15Well...
00:34:16I'll think about it
00:34:17Alright?
00:34:18I understand
00:34:19Meantime...
00:34:20Finish up with that horseshoe
00:34:21Lily wants his order by noon
00:34:22Yes, sir
00:34:23You're gonna be late opening your clinic
00:34:25I don't feel comfortable leaving Annie here all alone
00:34:26And I certainly don't feel comfortable with her being out of bed this much
00:34:27You know, I wish the two of you wouldn't talk about me as if I wasn't sitting right here
00:34:30Sorry, sweetheart
00:34:31You must be so frustrated
00:34:33I don't think about it
00:34:34I don't think about it
00:34:35I don't think about it
00:34:36Alright?
00:34:37I understand
00:34:38Meantime...
00:34:39Finish up with that horseshoe
00:34:40Lily wants his order by noon
00:34:41Yes, sir
00:34:42You're gonna be late opening your clinic
00:34:45I don't feel comfortable leaving Annie here all alone
00:34:48And I certainly don't feel comfortable with her being out of bed this much
00:34:51You know, I wish the two of you wouldn't talk about me as if I wasn't sitting right here
00:34:55Sorry, sweetheart
00:34:57You must be so frustrated, pooped up inside all the time
00:35:02I will be here with her all day
00:35:06You tend to your patients and we'll see you at supper
00:35:13If you need anything, I'll be close by
00:35:15Thank you
00:35:16Have a nice day
00:35:22Praise the Lord, we're free
00:35:25Peach Pie
00:35:28You get dressed
00:35:29We are going out to smell the roses
00:35:34Ah, coming to town
00:35:44Doc Owens, can I talk to you?
00:35:46Mrs McQueen, come in
00:35:47I only have a minute
00:35:52I left Lloyd at the general store
00:35:53Said I was running to the butcher
00:35:55What can I do for you, Mabel?
00:35:56Doc, I feel terrible
00:35:58This sickness, it's just getting worse
00:36:00I'm dizzy all the time and I can barely pick up the youngins
00:36:02That's because your anemia is getting worse
00:36:04Your body needs iron
00:36:06You're only gonna get sicker
00:36:07What can I do to make it better?
00:36:08I already told you
00:36:10Vegetables are the tonic
00:36:11If you don't listen to my instructions, there is nothing more I can do
00:36:14I tried to take the tonic, really I did
00:36:16Even started to feel a little stronger
00:36:18And then Lloyd found it and you know the rest
00:36:22I certainly do, he threw a bottle at me
00:36:24I'm sorry for that, really I am
00:36:26He was just upset, he didn't mean anything by it
00:36:29He's a wonderful husband and a father
00:36:31Maybe, but I can't help you if you won't help yourself
00:36:39Good day, Mrs. Moy
00:37:01Your friend Belinda doesn't seem too happy
00:37:05I'd say it's just that she doesn't like me
00:37:07But everybody likes me
00:37:10She isn't happy
00:37:12She's been trying to have a baby
00:37:14And Belinda just feels discouraged
00:37:17Me showing up in my condition
00:37:19And staying till the baby comes
00:37:21I think it's just another painful reminder
00:37:24Why didn't you say something sooner?
00:37:27It's baby trouble she's got
00:37:29I've surely got the cure
00:37:32How about a sugary treat?
00:37:38I'm sorry Lloyd, it isn't here yet
00:37:40It's been over a week
00:37:41You said it'd be here by now
00:37:43The freight line lost the shipping order
00:37:45There's nothing I can do about it
00:37:47There's something I could do
00:37:48If there was another general store within 10 miles of here
00:37:51It'll be here within a week
00:37:53I'm here Lloyd
00:37:55What took you so long?
00:37:58I'm sorry Lloyd, there was a little bit of a line
00:38:01There's always an excuse
00:38:02Let's get out of here
00:38:03I got fences to men before sundown
00:38:05She's just feeling poorly at late
00:38:18She's got a newborn and five youngins
00:38:20Says it wears her out
00:38:22You think a mother doesn't work?
00:38:24I've seen this a bunch
00:38:28During and after pregnancy
00:38:30This is a severe case of anemia
00:38:32She don't need Colin lady
00:38:34I know how to take care of my wife
00:38:36No you don't
00:38:38You are selfish
00:38:40And rude
00:38:42And contentious
00:38:43And you can't see the forest for the trees
00:38:45Doc Owens is trying to save your wife's life
00:38:49She's dying
00:38:53You get her over to the clinic
00:38:55And you beg Doc Owens for more of that tonic
00:38:58Don't talk to me like that
00:39:00I'll talk to you anyway I want
00:39:02Get her to the clinic
00:39:04You better pray to the merciful and good lord
00:39:12That she doesn't slam the door in your ungrateful face
00:39:17Amen
00:39:18Amen
00:39:19Amen
00:39:26Your home's dead now
00:39:27I don't want her
00:39:32I gave you a double dose
00:39:33So do not take any more today
00:39:34No ma'am
00:39:35Starting tomorrow morning
00:39:36Take two teaspoons every morning
00:39:38And if you don't get your strength back in four days
00:39:40Get back in here
00:39:46I'd like to apologize
00:39:49Last time we spoke I lost my temper
00:39:52What'll owe you for the tonic?
00:39:54Only that you allow her to keep taking it
00:39:56We don't need no charity
00:39:57The first one was already paid for
00:39:59This is just a replacement
00:40:02Step up!
00:40:19Yes dear
00:40:20I'm sorry you're sleeping
00:40:22Well not anymore
00:40:26My apprentice wants to court Lillian
00:40:29His name is Joshua
00:40:32I told him I'd think about it
00:40:36Well then think
00:40:38Don't think too long
00:40:40Lillian's grown up
00:40:41I'm having a hard time with it
00:40:43You're having a hard time letting her grow up
00:40:46I was trying to protect her
00:40:48I don't think she needs protection from Joshua
00:40:51He's a very nice young man
00:40:54That's all you have to say about him?
00:40:57Goodnight sweetheart
00:40:58Alright
00:40:59Tomorrow I'll give Joshua my permission to court Lill
00:41:08I don't think I don't know about your little excursion with Annie
00:41:24This town is filled with gossips
00:41:26Can't keep a secret for more than five minutes
00:41:28It's a pretty little town, Sykeston
00:41:31I can see why you like it here
00:41:33May I ask why you feel the need to go against every instruction I have for Annie?
00:41:38I don't deliberately go against your word
00:41:42We just disagree about how to treat her
00:41:45This isn't a competition, Mary
00:41:47If a patient came to you with gangrene or pneumonia
00:41:50I wouldn't dream of telling you how to treat them
00:41:53That's your business
00:41:55Babies are my business
00:41:58Have been for 30 years
00:42:00It's just there's been so many new advancements
00:42:02Sometimes the old ways are best
00:42:05Annie may have a serious condition which could be fatal to both her and the baby
00:42:09Are you sure?
00:42:10Of course I'm not sure but I'm not taking any chances
00:42:13So it's true what they say that doctors only practice medicine
00:42:20This conversation obviously isn't getting this anywhere
00:42:25So Annie tells me you're barren
00:42:27Or, uh, or having trouble anyway
00:42:30I don't think that's any of your concern
00:42:32I see this problem a lot
00:42:34If you want I could give you some remedies that are guaranteed to work
00:42:38I know how it's done, Mary
00:42:40I don't think there's anything wrong with you
00:42:42So what do you think is the problem?
00:42:44You're too high-strung
00:42:46Folks worry too much about work, family, or whether or not they're going to work
00:42:50They can have a baby
00:42:52Then years go by and nothing happens
00:42:55Then one day they decide to stop trying
00:42:58And before you know it
00:43:00They find they're with child
00:43:02So your sage advice for me is to relax
00:43:06Read a book before you go to bed
00:43:08Take some deep breath
00:43:11And before you know it, I'll be back to deliver your little one
00:43:15I'll make sure I try that
00:43:16Try that
00:43:36Every baby boy needs his own blanket
00:43:39Don't you agree?
00:43:40Yes, I do
00:43:48I'm gonna head to the shop for a few hours
00:43:50I'll be back in time for supper
00:43:52Don't you ever take time off?
00:43:54Oh, the good book says that a man who doesn't work doesn't deserve to eat
00:43:57I ain't got a lot of work to do
00:43:59We just thought you'd have more time off once you hired an apprentice
00:44:01And I do, now I'm only two weeks behind instead of six
00:44:03Billion, you look lovely, where are you headed off to?
00:44:10Joshua and I are having a picnic
00:44:12You enjoy yourself and please tell Joshua that we said hello
00:44:16I will
00:44:17You'll be back in time for supper now, no exceptions
00:44:19I will, I promise
00:44:22Bye everyone
00:44:23Bye dear
00:44:33I love it
00:44:39The sea is everything, it covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe
00:44:42Its breath is pure and healthy
00:44:44It is an immense desert where man is never lonely
00:44:47For he feels life stirring on all sides
00:44:49This sea is the only embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence
00:44:53It is nothing but love and emotion
00:44:54This is the living infinite as one of your poets has said
00:44:58I've been reading for almost two hours, you must be bored
00:45:03No, I don't think I can ever get bored listening to you talk
00:45:06You're just saying that
00:45:08No, I'm not, I swear
00:45:10It's just, I'd like this Captain Nemo if he weren't holding his friends hostage all the time
00:45:15I can't let them go and they might tell the world who he is
00:45:18Twenty thousand leagues is an allegory, it's about personal freedom
00:45:21Nemo means nobody in Latin
00:45:22He's invisible to the world and wants to keep it that way
00:45:26You're brilliant, you know that?
00:45:28I am brilliant
00:45:37Lee, you working today?
00:45:41You work harder than any man I know
00:45:44Well I can't let the customers down
00:45:46Besides it gives me thinking time
00:45:48Anything that you'd like to share with your pastor?
00:45:51This is a lot of rumbling around in my head like a marble
00:45:55Sometimes it helps to speak it out loud
00:45:57Talking to yourself only gets the answer you're looking for
00:46:00I just can't figure Lillian out
00:46:03I'm trying to be a good father to her
00:46:06Our children grow up, start spreading their wings
00:46:10A father has to be aware of that and try to grow with his child
00:46:14Yeah, Belinda tolerates more than I do
00:46:18She's a mother
00:46:20The good Lord gave them the patience of Job when it comes to raising their children
00:46:24He shortchanged fathers in that area
00:46:26Yeah, yeah
00:46:28Yeah
00:46:34I really wish you would get some rest
00:46:36I feel fine
00:46:38Looks like someone may have been wrong about my condition
00:46:42Perhaps
00:46:43So if things improve with Lee?
00:46:47He says he isn't bothered but
00:46:49I still sense that he's disappointed we can't have a baby
00:46:53Well, maybe you're just being overly sensitive and you think that he's disappointed
00:46:57Maybe
00:46:59You know I'm starting to think that maybe she would rest marrying me
00:47:02Now Lee, that is just plain nonsense
00:47:06She's proud as a peacock that she married you
00:47:08Maybe
00:47:10Have you spoken to her about it?
00:47:12In a roundabout way
00:47:14Of course she says I'm wrong
00:47:16Still, she seems kind of distant lately
00:47:19She's got something on her mind
00:47:21Most women do when they get like that
00:47:24You know we're trying to have a baby
00:47:28So far, no luck
00:47:30You have to have faith
00:47:32Sometimes it's hard, Reverend
00:47:35Talk to her about your feelings
00:47:38I'd best be getting home
00:47:41This is Dave, so give me an earful if I'm late for supper
00:47:45And myself included
00:47:52Well, I see
00:47:54You didn't need my help putting supper on the table
00:47:58You were taking a nap, man
00:48:00We just wanted you to be able to rest
00:48:02I'll rest enough when I'm dead
00:48:04Give me that knife before you cut yourself
00:48:13So, do you miss your family?
00:48:15I do
00:48:17My pa's a farmer back in Pennsylvania
00:48:19He wanted more from me than to spend my entire life plowing fields
00:48:21So, he said if I got good enough, maybe I can find some work in Philadelphia
00:48:26Sounds like he cares about you a lot
00:48:29Yeah, my family's pretty close
00:48:31It's kind of strange though
00:48:33You know, being out here all by myself
00:48:36I have three sisters and two brothers and not a moment of peace
00:48:39Back at the boarding house, I got nothing but quiet
00:48:41I know what you mean
00:48:43I mostly grew up in an orphanage until Ma and Pa adopted me when I was 10
00:48:46I'd spent so long in a room with other kids, I couldn't wait to have a room of my own
00:48:51Now I miss having someone to talk to
00:48:54Yeah, me
00:48:56Do, don't I?
00:48:59So, tell me something
00:49:02How'd you ever find a place like this anyway?
00:49:05I stumbled across it by accident while riding one day
00:49:08But it's so far off the main roads no one really comes out here
00:49:12So, I brought some of my old stuff and now it's where I come to be alone
00:49:17I can see why
00:49:19Captain Nemo had a cave near the ocean where he went to escape
00:49:22This reminds me of it
00:49:24Well, the timber still seems...
00:49:27I wouldn't do that
00:49:29Oh!
00:49:32Not as sound as you might think
00:49:34You're probably right
00:49:36I think it's best we pack up
00:49:43Well, I'm happy to see you and Mary are getting along
00:49:46You know, her fertility advice to me was to relax and read a book before bed
00:49:51Did you try it?
00:49:53Of course not
00:49:55She's been doing this longer than we've been alive
00:49:58I can't believe you, Annie Watson
00:50:00You've spent three years in medical school, five years practicing medicine
00:50:04And you're gonna believe that woman's folk magic?
00:50:06It's rubbish, plain and simple
00:50:08We ask people to believe in things they don't understand and they do
00:50:11Because they have trust and faith in us
00:50:14Just like they have faith in the Lord
00:50:16Okay, it is not the same thing and we're talking about Mary here
00:50:18Why do you have such a hard time believing in Mary's ways?
00:50:21Okay, Mary is a lovely woman
00:50:24But you have to admit, she's a little touch in the head
00:50:27She doesn't like me any more than I like her
00:50:30Really?
00:50:32The other day at the general store, Mary defended you to the ends of the earth
00:50:35What are you talking about?
00:50:37The man with the anemic wife? The one that you said was such a success story?
00:50:41Mary is the reason that he brought her back to you
00:50:42That's why Lloyd McQueen brought his wife back to me?
00:50:46Mary unloaded on him like a tornado
00:50:49Spoke up for you and just plain made him cower
00:50:54Come on!
00:50:56Go!
00:50:59Thank you!
00:51:00Do you have any idea what time it is?
00:51:06Hi, Pa!
00:51:08You were supposed to be home for supper
00:51:10Joshua and I weren't that hungry, so we decided to stay out a little while longer
00:51:13Well, it's well past supper, that's more than a little while
00:51:15Why are you so angry?
00:51:17I thought I could trust your judgment, but apparently I was wrong
00:51:20What's that supposed to mean?
00:51:21It means you can't spend any more time with Joshua Coyle until I say so
00:51:24You'll go to school, help your mother at the clinic and come straight home
00:51:27For how long?
00:51:28As long as it takes me to trust you again
00:51:30That's completely unfair
00:51:32Joshua's only two years older than I am and no one tells him what to do
00:51:35No one said the world was fair, young lady
00:51:37Lil
00:51:41I was worried about you
00:51:56Hello, Joshua
00:52:06Good afternoon, ma'am
00:52:09Uh...
00:52:11Mr. Owens told me how much trouble I caused the other night
00:52:14I just wanted to come by and say how sorry I am for keeping Lillian out so late
00:52:18You needn't place the blame all on yourself
00:52:21She's old enough to know better
00:52:22No, I'm still sorry
00:52:23Ma, I can't find the...
00:52:26Bandages
00:52:30Pa said I can't see you for a while
00:52:33Pa said you couldn't go out with Joshua
00:52:36He said nothing about the two of you seeing each other
00:52:39Thanks, ma'am
00:52:43Well, I have work to do
00:52:45It was nice to see you, Joshua
00:52:47There's always room open at the dinner table for you
00:52:49Thank you, ma'am
00:52:50Thank you, ma'am
00:52:57Sorry to get you into trouble
00:52:59You didn't do anything wrong and neither did I
00:53:01I'm a grown woman and I don't need my Pa deciding how late I can and can't stay out
00:53:05He's just worried about you is all
00:53:06Well, he doesn't need to be
00:53:08There's no need to be crossed, Lillian
00:53:10I mean, I'll still be here when you get off punishment
00:53:12I'm not going anywhere
00:53:14I wanted to return this
00:53:16I finished it
00:53:17Already?
00:53:18I just gave it to you
00:53:20Once I got started, it was hard to quit
00:53:23I mean, the sun was already up when I finally closed the book
00:53:25So you stayed up all night just to read about Captain Nemo?
00:53:28I don't think I would have gotten much sleep with or without him
00:53:33I'll be thinking about you
00:53:35You too
00:53:43Mary?
00:53:57In here, dear
00:54:05Annie, should you be up?
00:54:07Where are you going?
00:54:09I've decided to head on home
00:54:12I can see you're in good hands
00:54:14You're leaving?
00:54:16Before the baby comes?
00:54:18Oh, you'll do fine
00:54:21And besides, the last thing you need is an old granny midwife gumming up the works
00:54:28This doesn't have anything to do with the disagreement between you and Belinda, does it?
00:54:32Oh, no, no, no
00:54:33Truth is, I'm feeling homesick
00:54:39I miss sleeping in my own bed
00:54:42And my patients back home don't have a smart lady doctor to take care of them
00:54:48If you've made your decision, I can't stop you
00:54:51I'd really love for you to stay, though
00:54:53I want my family here when the baby comes
00:54:56Belinda is your family, sweetheart
00:54:59And Peter will be back with you next week
00:55:01Besides, all of you will be home before long and somebody's got to get the house ready
00:55:08I'm gonna go home to check on Annie, I shouldn't be alone
00:55:13If there's an emergency, just send them my way or come running, which you're very good at
00:55:18I will, Ma, and thank you
00:55:20For what?
00:55:21For understanding about me and Joshua
00:55:23Believe it or not, I was your age once
00:55:24I'm not gonna keep her from church social
00:55:40You may not be able to go with her, but you'll see her there
00:55:43In the meantime, we have an order to finish
00:55:46Well, all right, I like your attitude
00:55:50You're leaving
00:55:56Time for me to go home
00:55:58Oh, sorry to hear that
00:56:00I'm gonna see her off into town
00:56:02Annie, I just don't think it's a good idea for you to be carrying luggage and walking into town
00:56:05It was my idea, Belinda
00:56:06And I've been all over this whole territory through my entire pregnancy
00:56:09I think I can handle a short walk into town
00:56:11Doc Owens!
00:56:13Danny!
00:56:15Lillian told me he was here
00:56:17Ma's in labor
00:56:19Okay, there's a horse and buggy in the barn, help me hook it up
00:56:21Yes, ma'am
00:56:22I trust you weren't walking to town while I'm away
00:56:24All right, Peach Pie
00:56:26You get back in the house and stay put
00:56:28Belinda and I have a baby to deliver
00:56:30Mrs. Travis is my patient
00:56:32If you find you don't need me, you have my permission to just shove me out of the way
00:56:37But if you do, you have my permission to just shove me out of the way
00:56:42But if you do, you have my permission to just shove me out of the way
00:56:44If you do, you'll have my permission to just shove me out of the way
00:56:47If you don't need me, you have my permission to just shove me out of the way
00:56:51But if you do, I'm there
00:56:56Fine, but only because I don't have time to argue with you
00:57:08Thank you, young man
00:57:14It's never taken this long
00:57:15The first few hours seem normal, but then it just stopped
00:57:18What stopped? The contractions?
00:57:20No, Doc, the baby, it's like it's stuck, but I can't see the head
00:57:23I'll see you to her
00:57:25Your mama's gonna be fine
00:57:29It's a fetal dystocia
00:57:31A what?
00:57:32The baby's shoulder is stuck
00:57:34What are you fixing to do with that?
00:57:35We have to get the baby out before it suffocates
00:57:37We start pulling, we could make things worse
00:57:40What should we do?
00:57:41Well, if you can't get the baby out from the inside
00:57:45You'd try it from the outside
00:57:48Alright, help me with her now
00:57:50That's good
00:57:52What are we doing?
00:57:54We're gonna flatten out her hip bones
00:57:56No
00:57:58Travis, stay down for me
00:58:00There
00:58:01Now, we're gonna see if you're stuck and who's not
00:58:03It's not
00:58:16There
00:58:30It's gonna be alright
00:58:31Pa?
00:58:36Pa?
00:58:39Pa?
00:58:43Hello, Joshua
00:58:45Where's my pa?
00:58:47He's on delivery
00:58:48Then headed home
00:58:50I'd sure like to go to the ice cream social
00:58:53I'd sure like to ask you to go with me
00:58:56So?
00:58:57Your pa said I could see you there
00:59:00But I can't escort you
00:59:02Sorry
00:59:18Joshua
00:59:21Pa is being so unreasonable
00:59:23We were late coming home, okay?
00:59:26Don't tell me you're on his side
00:59:28What's the difference in an hour or so?
00:59:30We got home just fine
00:59:32He just doesn't trust me
00:59:33Your pa had no way of knowing whether you were alright
00:59:35When you didn't make it home on time
00:59:36You sound just like pa
00:59:38Ma is the only one who understands
00:59:40Lillian, wait a second
00:59:41Lillian, wait a second
00:59:54Get out, get out
00:59:56Get out
00:59:58Get out
00:59:59It's a beautiful baby boy and your wife is fine
01:00:14Can I see them?
01:00:16Shortly
01:00:20Well, looks like we got ourselves a baby brother
01:00:23Ha ha ha
01:00:29Isn't he beautiful?
01:00:30He sure is
01:00:34He better be
01:00:36Leave it to a boy to jam up the works
01:00:38Uh, that's not doctor's work
01:00:53It doesn't matter who does it, just as long as it gets done
01:01:00I learned something today that they didn't teach me medical school
01:01:08Not at all
01:01:09So and they threw themselves in dinner
01:01:10I didn't teach English
01:01:14There's that now
01:01:16ührer
01:01:18Wait a minute
01:01:20He was all wrong
01:01:21Who knew he should start without doing it
01:01:23Thanks
01:01:25Thenシャ навacja
01:01:29If we got attacked
01:01:31Then it was thrown around
01:01:32Oh, can't juntos
01:01:34Maybe just remember
01:01:35All right, whoa, whoa.
01:01:56Whoa.
01:02:00You seen Lillian?
01:02:01No, why?
01:02:02Well, we thought she might be with you.
01:02:04She's been missing all afternoon.
01:02:05We got in an argument at the shop over Mr. Owens,
01:02:07and she stormed off.
01:02:09Said you were the only one who understands her.
01:02:10We were hoping she'd run off to find you.
01:02:12She rode off on that crazy horse I bought for her.
01:02:15It's about to get dark outside.
01:02:17She gets stuck in the countryside.
01:02:19I think I know where she is.
01:02:28Come on.
01:02:34It's worse this time.
01:02:42I feel like I could faint.
01:02:43Okay, okay, let's get her inside.
01:02:45It looks as if the doctor was right about bed rest.
01:02:48No, it's not.
01:02:49Yes, please.
01:02:50Mom.
01:02:50I can't even grab her.
01:02:53No, it's fine.
01:02:53Just go.
01:02:54Okay.
01:02:54No, it's fine.
01:02:54Let's go.
01:02:55Ah!
01:02:56Ah!
01:02:56Ah!
01:02:57Ah!
01:02:57Ah!
01:03:02Ah!

01:03:15Ah!
01:03:16Ah!
01:03:16Ah!
01:03:16Ah!
01:03:17How much further?
01:03:24She's just up ahead.
01:03:33How are you feeling?
01:03:35I'm really not as light as it is before.
01:03:37I like to just go to bed.
01:03:39Let's get you upstairs to a darkened room.
01:03:42Doctor's orders.
01:03:47Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:04:17Was it like this before?
01:04:22No, sir.
01:04:23Looks like there is a cave-in.
01:04:25She might be hurt.
01:04:28This is one of her lamps.
01:04:29Come on, let's go.
01:04:31Lil!
01:04:33Lil!
01:04:41It's right up there.
01:04:43I see her.
01:04:44Lil!
01:04:50Lil!
01:04:51Give me a hand with this.
01:04:53One, two, three.
01:04:58You got it?
01:05:00Lil!
01:05:01Lil!
01:05:03Lil!
01:05:04Come on, talk to me, pumpkin.
01:05:10Pa?
01:05:10Pa?
01:05:13Yeah.
01:05:15I'm here, Ronnie.
01:05:17Just take it easy.
01:05:19Just stay down, all right?
01:05:23I'm going to get you out of here.
01:05:24Okay.
01:05:25Okay.
01:05:25How's Lillian?
01:05:50A few cuts and bruises, but nothing that won't heal nicely.
01:05:55She's out for the night.
01:05:58Lee's sitting with her for a while.
01:06:00Give her a couple of days.
01:06:01She'll be right as rain.
01:06:03At that age, nothing keeps them down.
01:06:06Well, I think her ego has suffered more than her body.
01:06:10This too shall pass.
01:06:14Children are just so resilient, aren't they?
01:06:18True miracles.
01:06:19Are you still fretting about the baby-making?
01:06:22I don't think I'll be making babies anytime soon, Mary.
01:06:26Give it up if you want.
01:06:28But I'm telling you, the shine in your hair is not the mark of a barren woman.
01:06:35You don't really believe that, do you?
01:06:37It doesn't matter what I believe.
01:06:38It only matters what you believe.
01:06:40What do you mean?
01:06:41Medicine isn't the only thing that makes people feel better.
01:06:44It's believing that they can be better.
01:06:50I'm sorry I doubted you.
01:06:53You didn't deserve it.
01:06:55The Lord says we are to forgive if we expect to be forgiven.
01:06:59Make me some fresh bacon and eggs in the morning, and all is forgiven.
01:07:06That's a promise.
01:07:16Late night tonight.
01:07:18Everyone's worn out.
01:07:20A little sleeping like a pup.
01:07:21You know, I think I might read a book before bed tonight.
01:07:34Really?
01:07:35You never read in bed.
01:07:37I think it'll do me good.
01:07:39Help me unwind after the long day we've all had.
01:07:42Doc, I've been thinking about us trying to have a baby.
01:07:54Lil's changed our lives in so many wonderful ways.
01:07:58And I'm sure there's plenty of children down at the orphanage.
01:08:00You need a good home.
01:08:01You mean you'll still be happy even if we can't have children of her home?
01:08:06I'll be happy as long as I'm with you.
01:08:09Always have been.
01:08:10Always will be.
01:08:12Do you think my hair is shiny?
01:08:19Yeah.
01:08:20Yeah, I like the sunrise.
01:08:25I do love you, Mr. Owens.
01:08:28I love you too.
01:08:31Good night.
01:08:32Oh, all right.
01:08:34You can read your book now?
01:08:35Okay.
01:08:38All right.
01:08:40I'll just go to sleep.
01:08:42I'm sure I can't help you read it or no.
01:08:51All right.
01:08:52Shouldn't you be in bed?
01:09:03My ball and chain let me come downstairs.
01:09:07She has her mind set on going to the ice cream social.
01:09:10What if I find a shady, comfortable place to just sit and eat ice cream?
01:09:14You are not going to the social.
01:09:16I am a doctor.
01:09:17I vote yes.
01:09:18Well, that's one vote for Dr. Annie and one vote for the midwife.
01:09:22I guess you've got the tie-breaking vote, Doc.
01:09:25I'm sorry, Annie.
01:09:29I'm going to have to side with the midwife.
01:09:31But I love ice cream.
01:09:33Then I'll send you some.
01:09:34It's not the same.
01:09:35How do I know you're not going to sneak out when we're gone?
01:09:37Don't give it a second thought, Doc.
01:09:40This old ball and chain will be sitting right here like a prison warden.
01:09:44You're both against me.
01:09:45That's right.
01:09:46Read your book and pout.
01:10:01Don't you look beautiful?
01:10:03Except for this.
01:10:04I don't know.
01:10:05We'll even notice that.
01:10:06Even Joshua.
01:10:07Especially Joshua.
01:10:09Thanks for telling Joshua you're going to escort me to the social.
01:10:12You're still coming with your mother and I, right?
01:10:14And I told him I wanted to walk in with my family and see him from afar.
01:10:18That's very romantic.
01:10:19Must be from all the books I read.
01:10:23Pa.
01:10:25I'm sorry for not making curfew the other night.
01:10:28Oh, no, you were just worried about me.
01:10:30Don't worry about it.
01:10:32You're growing up so fast sometimes I can't keep up with you.
01:10:36Thanks, Pa.
01:10:37Come here.
01:10:44Mr. Owens, Dr. Owens, would you like some lemonade?
01:11:05No, thank you.
01:11:06No, thank you, Joshua.
01:11:07Hey, partner.
01:11:15How's your ice cream?
01:11:18Doc Owens, can we talk?
01:11:20What?
01:11:21Do you know my husband, Lee?
01:11:23Gordon?
01:11:24I want to thank you.
01:11:26Mabel's as different as night and day.
01:11:28It's all I can do to keep up with her.
01:11:30Well, you do look like a brand new person.
01:11:32I've had a lot more energy.
01:11:34I still need some extra sleep in the afternoons.
01:11:36I'm getting stronger every day.
01:11:38Well, the best medicine is no good if it isn't dispensed to receive with a joyful spirit.
01:11:43It's all too easy to forget that.
01:11:45Well, I, uh, mostly want to apologize for being stubborn.
01:11:52Thanks again, Doc.
01:11:53It was my pleasure.
01:11:54And I should be the one to apologize to you, Mabel.
01:11:58I had no right to be cross with you when you needed my help.
01:12:01I hope you can forgive me.
01:12:02There's nothing to forgive.
01:12:07Have a good day.
01:12:12Wow, look at that.
01:12:14That was a very nice thing you just did.
01:12:17You like some ice cream?
01:12:19I'd love some.
01:12:19I got these telegrams.
01:12:39Where's Annie?
01:12:40The Lord brought you at the right time.
01:12:42Everyone's in town at a social.
01:12:44I need Belinda now.
01:12:45I want to see Annie.
01:12:47Get Belinda now.
01:12:53You look beautiful.
01:12:55So you look handsome.
01:12:59I still can't believe it.
01:13:01Can't believe what?
01:13:02That I'm here with the smartest, most beautiful girl in town.
01:13:09That's very sweet of you to say, Joshua.
01:13:11Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:26Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:27Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:29Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:31Gracie, Shannon, you go on and get out of here.
01:13:33Make sure she's out there.
01:13:42Belinda!
01:13:43Stop goings!
01:13:44I need you!
01:13:46Whoa!
01:13:47Whoa!
01:13:50What's that?
01:13:51Belinda!
01:13:52Peter!
01:13:52It's Annie.
01:13:53You got to come quick.
01:13:55Joshua, you see to it that Lillian gets home safe.
01:13:57Yes, sir.
01:13:59Yeah!
01:13:59Yeah!
01:14:00Stand back!
01:14:01Dog!
01:14:02Mary, thank God you're back.
01:14:11She's had a seizure.
01:14:12I've got her in bed.
01:14:14Pete, I'm the best way down here.
01:14:19There's nothing you can do up there.
01:14:20Dear Lord, please watch over Annie and her baby.
01:14:36Amen.
01:14:38Amen.
01:14:40Thank you, Lee.
01:14:41You're welcome.
01:14:43Come on, let's have a seat.
01:14:50Peter, he's waiting downstairs.
01:15:01Right.
01:15:03It is Eclipsia.
01:15:05I'm afraid so.
01:15:08Please save my baby.
01:15:12I know what you have to do.
01:15:20I'm going to close my eyes now.
01:15:35What did she mean?
01:15:39You know what has to be done.
01:15:41That baby has to come out if we're to save it.
01:15:44Even at the risk of her own life.
01:15:46That baby is ready.
01:15:47She was talking about a cesarean delivery.
01:15:51Which I could do at the clinic, but under very crude conditions.
01:15:55Have you ever done one?
01:15:57I did one once at a hospital in Boston.
01:16:00But I had the proper equipment and staff.
01:16:03And there wasn't a Clamsie involved.
01:16:05Is there no other choice?
01:16:08Not if she doesn't go into labor soon.
01:16:10Well then, we best get that labor going.
01:16:14What is that?
01:16:21Scotch broom with a little vanilla to help it go down.
01:16:24Women have been using it for centuries.
01:16:27Scotch broom is a weed?
01:16:28A weed the good Lord made.
01:16:31His wonders to perceive.
01:16:33Does it work?
01:16:34Sure as the sunrise.
01:16:36A little of this,
01:16:38and we'll have our baby boy in no time.
01:16:41Is there anything else I can do?
01:16:48A glass of water.
01:16:48A glass of water.
01:16:48A glass of water.
01:16:56A glass of water.
01:16:57A glass of water.
01:16:58A glass of water.
01:16:59A glass of water.
01:17:00A glass of water.
01:17:01A glass of water.
01:17:02A glass of water.
01:17:03A glass of water.
01:17:04A glass of water.
01:17:05A glass of water.
01:17:06A glass of water.
01:17:07A glass of water.
01:17:08A glass of water.
01:17:09A glass of water.
01:17:10A glass of water.
01:17:11A glass of water.
01:17:12A glass of water.
01:17:13A glass of water.
01:17:14A glass of water.
01:17:15A glass of water.
01:17:16A glass of water.
01:17:17Her temperature is slightly raised
01:17:25But her heartbeat and her breathing are normal
01:17:28No contractions yet
01:17:30It doesn't seem to be working
01:17:32It's never taken this long
01:17:34Let's just give it a little more time
01:17:36We could lose Annie and the baby
01:17:40Do you have everything here that you need
01:17:44To do a cesarean delivery?
01:17:47How about taking a spoonful of that faith you're always talking about?
01:17:57I'm going to make some tea
01:17:58Do you like a cup?
01:18:00No, thank you
01:18:01Any news?
01:18:16Nothing yet
01:18:17I'm going to have a cup of tea
01:18:20You're doing fine, Annie
01:18:42Just keep breathing
01:18:42Contractions
01:18:48Closer together
01:18:49We are going to introduce this baby boy to his new family
01:18:53It's alright, it's alright
01:18:55Keep breathing
01:18:57Just get the help of your mother
01:18:58I'm going to make some tea
01:18:59I'm going to make some tea
01:19:00I'm going to make some tea
01:19:01I'm going to make some tea
01:19:02Not just for you
01:19:03I'm going to make some tea
01:19:07Congratulations, Uncle Nito.
01:19:29She's so beautiful.
01:19:32I've delivered hundreds of babies,
01:19:35but I've never seen one this...
01:19:36perfect.
01:19:39And I'm not just saying that because she's my granddaughter.
01:19:42I thought she was a boy.
01:19:45She carried like a boy.
01:19:47We live and learn, don't we, Doc?
01:19:49We sure do.
01:19:50Thank you both for being here.
01:19:52There's no other place we'd rather be.
01:19:58Is it okay if I come in?
01:20:05Come meet your daughter, Peter.
01:20:06Can I hold her?
01:20:16Come sit.
01:20:17Come sit.
01:20:17There's nothing to do.
01:20:18Ooooooh.
01:20:22Ooh, ooh.
01:20:25Ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:20:27Ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:20:29Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:20:29Hey, you got that, fella?
01:20:49How about your present?
01:20:51Present?
01:20:53These are a few of my secrets.
01:20:55When I asked you for a few books, I thought you'd give me one or two.
01:21:00Well, the way you went through 20,000 links, I figured you'd use a few more.
01:21:03Oh, you think so?
01:21:07I should probably get going.
01:21:09Okay.
01:21:10Will I see you later?
01:21:13Sure, as this is one fine day.
01:21:14Come on, Joey, help me out of here.
01:21:27Joshua, when you're finished swooning over my daughter, I could use a little help in here.
01:21:31I'm coming.
01:21:32Lord, thank you for the family that surrounds us and the love which envelops us.
01:21:40May we always strive to walk the way you like and be true missionaries of your word.
01:21:47Amen.
01:21:58Hey, are you all right?
01:22:00I'm fine.
01:22:01Just a little stuffy inside.
01:22:03I've gotten so used to you being at the house, it's going to be too quiet when we're gone.
01:22:06Well, it's been a week since my darling daughter was born.
01:22:10I think it's time we go home.
01:22:12I'm going to miss you so very much.
01:22:14And all the more reason for you to come visit us soon.
01:22:21What are you doing out here?
01:22:23Oh, I was just getting some fresh air, talking to Annie.
01:22:25You're going to miss her, aren't you?
01:22:28Well, we have her for one more night.
01:22:31Let's enjoy her while we can.
01:22:43Thank you very much, Lee.
01:22:44It was my pleasure, Pete.
01:22:45And Belinda.
01:22:47I can never thank you enough.
01:22:49Well, I wish I could take all the credit, but I had some expert help.
01:22:53This has been the happiest time of my life.
01:22:56I'm so glad that I got to share this with you.
01:22:59Me too.
01:23:00All aboard, folks.
01:23:01We're burning daylight.
01:23:03I think it's about that time.
01:23:05Will you hold baby Lindy for me?
01:23:07Of course.
01:23:09I thought you'd do.
01:23:19Bye.
01:23:20Bye.
01:23:29Well, my friend, we had ourselves an adventure.
01:23:47How do I think you're married?
01:23:49Well, you could start by finding me a husband.
01:23:50I learned a lot from you.
01:23:56And I from you.
01:23:57I may bring them into the world, but you keep them alive and kicking once they're here.
01:24:03Now, if you ever need a good midwife, you know where to find me.
01:24:07Oh, young man, I'm going to need a hand here.
01:24:25All right.
01:24:26Here we go.
01:24:27Wait a minute.
01:24:28One, two, three.
01:24:29Steady, steady, steady.
01:24:34Well, Commodore, are we sailing with the tide?
01:24:37I thought you said we were burning daylight.
01:24:40Yes, ma'am.
01:24:41Yeah, get out.
01:24:44Get out.
01:24:44Where are you and Mary whispering to each other?
01:25:01I was just telling her I'd be needing a good midwife.
01:25:08You mean?
01:25:09Mm-hmm.
01:25:13Are you sure?
01:25:14I'm a doctor.
01:25:15I know a pregnant woman when I see one, especially when I am one.
01:25:22Hey.
01:25:24We're going to have a baby.
01:25:26Baby?
01:25:29We're going to have a baby.
01:25:32Lillian Owens, you were late enough for school as it is.
01:25:34Put those running legs to good use.
01:25:36Yes, ma'am.
01:25:39Joshua Coyle, don't just stand there and gawk.
01:25:42You've got a job to do.
01:25:42Yes, ma'am.
01:25:47I've got patients to attend to and baby plans to make.
01:25:50Mm-mm.
01:25:51Uh, now wait up.
01:25:55Now wait up a bit.
01:25:59How far along are you?
01:26:02Now I'm serious.
01:26:03Well, we've got to start talking about names, really.
01:26:06I like leave for a boy.
01:26:08Oh, you think it's going to be a boy?
01:26:10Or, uh, you know, maybe Daphne for a girl.
01:26:12What do you think?
01:26:13Oh, that's very pretty.
01:26:14Come on, you want a little girl, don't you?
01:26:16What do you think?
01:26:17All right, I'll hold on.
01:26:18I'll get the door for you.
01:26:19Oh, wait.
01:26:20Oh, my goodness.
01:26:21Oh, my goodness.
