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.
00:01:27About five months ago.
00:01:32Your mouth, please.
00:01:39It becomes a very pale label.
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.
00:01:49It'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.
00:02:24Take two spoonfuls twice a day and come and see me in a week.
00:02:37It'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.
00:02:45Hello, Lee.
00:02:57Hey there, Reverend.
00:02:59Leaving that bronc of yours saddled all day?
00:03:01I'm just trying to wear him down for the ride home.
00:03:04You'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.
00:03:13She 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.
00:03:23All finished?
00:03:28It'll be two dollars for the doctor and fifty cents for the medicine.
00:03:32I'm sorry your husband doesn't allow me any extra money.
00:03:47I have to use the sock money I've saved up.
00:03:50Why don't we just call it a dollar even?
00:03:54That's very kind of you.
00:03:55Don't mention it, Mrs. McQueen.
00:03:56You know where all you are with that medicine?
00:03:58I will absolutely.
00:03:59Very good to see you.
00:04:00Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:04:01Now you take care of yourself.
00:04:02Okay.
00:04:03All right, pal.
00:04:04Let's have a nice, easy ride today.
00:04:05Okay?
00:04:06I don't want any more of that funny business.
00:04:08That's the monster, Kyle.
00:04:09Here he comes.
00:04:10We are.
00:04:11We are.
00:04:12Hey!
00:04:13I love you too!
00:04:15Hey!
00:04:17Hey!
00:04:18Don't want any more of that funny business.
00:04:19I love you, Kyle.
00:04:20Here he comes.
00:04:22H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H
00:04:35I guess we're still in the learning process.
00:04:42Come on.
00:04:55Aunt Annie's here!
00:04:59Aunt Annie!
00:05:00Oh, Lillian, my love!
00:05:02She looks wonderful, doesn't she, Pop?
00:05:06Sure, she looks very round.
00:05:09I'm so glad you and Uncle Peter are here.
00:05:11Oh, let me get that.
00:05:12Oh, it's fine.
00:05:14Everyone treats me like a china doll. I'm not gonna break.
00:05:19I'm so glad you came. Me 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,
00:05:30but we need the money. I'll be back in plenty of time.
00:05:34Would you mind at ease, Pete? We'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.
00:05:42And we're so glad you did.
00:05:44How are things done at the clinic?
00:05:46Broken bones and bee stings, anything a nursing student can handle.
00:05:49Don't let her fool you in, Annie. The town loves Mom.
00:05:52They 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?
00:06:01You'll help them get settled in for the night?
00:06:03All right, son. It's good having Annie here.
00:06:20It is.
00:06:22She's your best friend, isn't she?
00:06:24I'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.
00:06:31Well, you seem like you're a hundred miles away.
00:06:34I'm just tired.
00:06:36You sure that's all there is to it?
00:06:39What's wrong?
00:06:40I'm not pregnant.
00:06:42Don't worry yourself about it.
00:06:44We've tried for so long.
00:06:46We have more than we can handle with Lill.
00:06:49Oh, I know, but...
00:06:53It's just that when Annie found out the news,
00:06:55it maybe won a baby of her own even more.
00:07:02Now that she's staying with us.
00:07:04No.
00:07:08We are gonna have a beautiful baby of our own.
00:07:12And all good things come in God's time,
00:07:14and maybe 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.
00:07:35Hm?
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.
00:07:56I love you.
00:07:57I love you too.
00:08:03Bye, ladies.
00:08:04Take good care of my Annie.
00:08:05I love you.
00:08:07Step up!
00:08:08Step up!
00:08:17Boy, are you all right?
00:08:19I don't know.
00:08:21Ha!
00:08:23Oh, no!
00:08:25No!
00:08:27Oh, please!
00:08:30Oh!
00:08:31Whoa!
00:08:32Whoa!
00:08:33DJ!
00:08:36Well, it's time, isn't it?
00:08:38Thanks.
00:08:39Got it.
00:08:40Check on the team, Mike.
00:08:43Welcome home, darling.
00:08:44Home.
00:08:47How was the trip?
00:08:48Yeah!
00:08:49You must be Joshua Coyle.
00:08:58Yes, sir.
00:08:59Who are you Owens?
00:09:00Welcome, Saxton.
00:09:02How was 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.
00:09:10Well, 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.
00:09:18All right?
00:09:19Come on, let me show you the shop.
00:09:20Sounds good.
00:09:23So we do a little bit of everything here.
00:09:26Liberty work and rolling stock.
00:09:28Custom work for the building trade.
00:09:32Now, when your blows are even,
00:09:33and you can work a straight piece of metal,
00:09:35those will be your tools.
00:09:37It's hard work.
00:09:38But you managed to make something
00:09:39that lasts a generation or two.
00:09:42Well, it gives you a sense of pride.
00:09:44I reckon that's true.
00:09:45Well, what 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?
00:10:01Carrying around a 30-pound sack of flour.
00:10:04Slow day?
00:10:05Oh, I'm sure it's only a matter of time
00:10:07before someone comes in from getting caught
00:10:09on a rusty nail or falling off a ladder.
00:10:11You know, when I was traveling through Selina last month,
00:10:14there was a rash of copperhead snake bites.
00:10:17It felt like every day someone was dragged into the clinic.
00:10:21I 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.
00:10:31And our patients deserve and need our compassion.
00:10:36That's right out of a textbook.
00:10:38Linda, are you sure there isn't anything you'd like to talk to me about?
00:10:42You can tell me anything, you know that.
00:10:46Oh!
00:10:47What 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?
00:11:00It 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.
00:11:06You know, my Pa says walking's good for a man's constitution.
00:11:16You always walk?
00:11:18Well, lately I've been riding.
00:11:20You walking to my camp?
00:11:21No.
00:11:23I got a horse to give to Lil Ant.
00:11:26But 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 of saddle horses.
00:11:38Only harness problem.
00:11:39I stick with wagons.
00:11:41You'd better pour it.
00:11:44I really wish you would just sit down after what happened today.
00:11:47What happened today?
00:11:49Absolutely nothing to be concerned about.
00:11:51And that's coming from your doctor, Amy.
00:11:53When you go home, who will deliver your baby?
00:11:55My mother-in-law. She's a midwife.
00:11:57Well, I wish I was the one delivering your baby.
00:12:00It's a doctor's job after all.
00:12:02I'm sure it's going to be fine.
00:12:04Ladies, if you don't mind, I brought home a guest for supper.
00:12:13And you must be Joshua. Welcome to our home.
00:12:18Very nice to meet you, Ms. Owens.
00:12:20That's Dr. Owens.
00:12:22You're a doctor?
00:12:24Yes. As is my best friend, Dr. Annie Watson.
00:12:27It's a pleasure to meet you, Joshua.
00:12:29Ma'am.
00:12:31It's funny. I just had no idea women were allowed to be doctors.
00:12:34Allowed?
00:12:35I just...
00:12:36And just who would we need permission from?
00:12:37Go easy on them.
00:12:38Well, he 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.
00:12:50We raised her to speak her mind.
00:12:51We'll get used to her.
00:12:54Oh, now.
00:12:56Let's go get washed up.
00:12:59Smells like my favorite.
00:13:00Well, 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.
00:13:42Well, I have no objections to your mother and aunt being doctors.
00:13:45I swear.
00:13:47It's just...
00:13:49Well, I'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.
00:13:56Apology accepted.
00:14:01Well, I'll leave you to your schoolwork.
00:14:03Well, this isn't for school.
00:14:05So, you read for fun?
00:14:07I'd read just about all day if Mom and Pa let me.
00:14:09Well, alright.
00:14:11I'll leave you to your book, Ms. Owens.
00:14:16Good night, Mr. Coyle.
00:14:25Good night, Pa.
00:14:26Good night, Pa.
00:14:27Good night, Pa.
00:14:28Good night, Pa.
00:14:29Good night, Pa.
00:14:33Nice young man.
00:14:34I hadn't noticed.
00:14:38Good night, pumpkin.
00:14:40Good night, Pa.
00:14:41Good night, Pa.
00:14:55Come in.
00:14:59How are you?
00:15:00Good night, Pa.
00:15:01How are you?
00:15:02I feel so good.
00:15:03Is it all alright?
00:15:15I can't get it.
00:15:17Can I help?
00:15:20Can we just sit in a row?
00:15:21Just...
00:15:23I think it was so dis-
00:15:25I think it was so dis-
00:15:26I think it was so dis-
00:15:28I think it was so dis-
00:15:28I think it was so dis-
00:15:29It's so dis-
00:15:30It's so dis-
00:15:31It's amazing, but this is...
00:15:35Why?
00:15:47What is it?
00:15:51It's amazing.
00:15:53It's amazing.
00:16:00It's amazing.
00:16:23It's amazing.
00:16:36Thank you!
00:16:38What's up, darling?
00:16:55What's up?
00:16:56Baby.
00:16:58She's fine.
00:17:07She's fine.
00:17:08Hey, what is it?
00:17:10It's not sure.
00:17:12No, she has all the other symptoms.
00:17:28Well, I'll telegraph Peter first thing in the morning.
00:17:31Tell him what's happened.
00:17:33And let 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, Amanda, I'll wire her as mother.
00:17:40You said she lives in Spartan.
00:17:47Do you really think this is necessary?
00:17:50Total rest for you, Mrs. Watson, in 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.
00:18:13Prepare for my peach.
00:18:25Are 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.
00:18:35Bye, ma.
00:18:37Have a good day, darling.
00:18:38Bye, ma.
00:18:39Bye.
00:18:40That 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.
00:18:57You have any idea how much I love you?
00:18:58Well, it never hurts to hear.
00:19:00I love you.
00:19:00I love you, too, Lee Owens.
00:19:07Oh, and don't forget to send the telegrams.
00:19:09All right.
00:19:10Have a good day, sweet darling.
00:19:24Belinda feels Annie's health as well as the baby's is better served staying here until after the delivery.
00:19:28I have wired Peter the same message.
00:19:32Lee Owens.
00:19:34I love you to say it.
00:19:43Dr. Alton.
00:19:45Mr. McQueen.
00:19:46Sorry, I wrote the clothes 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.
00:20:00Give her that medicine.
00:20:01I don't need your magic potion.
00:20:03A doctor killed my sister with tonic.
00:20:06I don't know the details of your sister's death, but there's no magic to it.
00:20:11Your wife had a baby a month ago, and she has a very serious medical condition.
00:20:15Maybe if you weren't so hard-headed, you would realize that.
00:20:18Now, my advice...
00:20:19I 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's the holler?
00:20:24Are you all right, Belinda?
00:20:30Yes, I'm just frustrated.
00:20:32I'm 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.
00:20:42Can't we all get caught up in our own lives at times,
00:20:44and lose sight of the compassion we should have for others?
00:20:48There I go preaching again.
00:20:50Oh, it's all right. I 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.
00:21:11Your daughter seems very smart, Mr. Owens.
00:21:18Must 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?
00:21:28Huh.
00:21:29I never would have known.
00:21:30I mean, she and Mrs., I mean, Dr. Owens, sort of look alike.
00:21:36Matter of fact.
00:21:37Yeah, I mean, it's just, Lillian's very pretty.
00:21:41Yeah, I know she's pretty.
00:21:42I'm pretty.
00:21:42I'm truthfully not that hungry.
00:21:58Doctor's orders.
00:22:00Even if you don't feel up to it, you need to finish the entire bowl.
00:22:03I'm not a child, Belinda.
00:22:05And I'm a doctor. I think I know what's best for me.
00:22:07Knowing and doing are two entirely different things.
00:22:10Is 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.
00:22:31It is silly.
00:22:31That's an old wife's tale.
00:22:33There's no medical merit to it.
00:22:35Say what you want, but when Peter's sister was pregnant,
00:22:37Mary was concerned because she was carrying so far out in front.
00:22:41She 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.
00:22:50You want to feel?
00:22:51That's all right.
00:22:53Come on, Belinda.
00:22:54Don't be nervous.
00:22:58It's so strange.
00:22:59I never thought I'd be a mother.
00:23:03And it suddenly feels like the most natural thing in the world.
00:23:09I'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.
00:23:26I look after this woman, Mabel McQueen.
00:23:30She's had six babies in the past eight years, without even trying.
00:23:34It's important to you, isn't it?
00:23:41I best get supper ready.
00:23:42Bea 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.
00:23:56I was wondering where you'd run off to.
00:24:12I just looked in on Annie.
00:24:13She's out for the night.
00:24:15She keeps insisting she feels fine.
00:24:18I think I've heard that before.
00:24:24You two are so much alike, it's frightening.
00:24:27I suppose it's why we're such good friends.
00:24:32I noticed you didn't have Joshua over for supper tonight.
00:24:35I'm pretty sure he's sweet on Lill.
00:24:38I don't want the two of them spending too much time together.
00:24:41Why not?
00:24:42He's only a couple years older.
00:24:43Doc, he's an apprentice blacksmith.
00:24:46I want better for Lillian.
00:24:47I'm the wife of a blacksmith, and you don't hear me complaining.
00:24:50I spent the last five years trying to figure out how I tricked you into marrying me.
00:24:54You could have done much better.
00:24:56You didn't trick me into anything.
00:24:58I married you because I fell in love with you, Leonis.
00:25:02And if Lillian and Joshua had taken interest in one another,
00:25:05I don't think it's our place to stand in their way.
00:25:07Besides, telling Lillian she can't have some things.
00:25:11Like daring to try to stop her.
00:25:13I get your point.
00:25:18I don't want to get in the way of her happiness.
00:25:20Still, you left a small town to follow your dream.
00:25:25And if Lill wants to go to college, I darn sure want to see it happen.
00:25:28I don't want to tie it down to Saxon.
00:25:34I hope she knows what a wonderful and caring father she has.
00:25:39It's getting a little chilly.
00:25:42Want to turn it in for the night?
00:25:43You go ahead.
00:25:44I'll be up in a little while.
00:25:45Don't be in such a hurry, pretty lady.
00:26:09Please allow me to pass.
00:26:11We need to get to know each other.
00:26:12I think not.
00:26:16I don't want to be late for school.
00:26:18I can teach you more than any school can.
00:26:20Excuse me.
00:26:23You mind letting the young lady pass?
00:26:24This ain't none of your affairs, sod buster.
00:26:26Ah, but it is.
00:26:28It ain't.
00:26:29What?
00:26:29Here.
00:26:30What?
00:26:34Knock your head off, boy.
00:26:36Now, you hold on a second.
00:26:37Now, the good book tells me to turn the other cheek.
00:26:39Now, I only have two.
00:26:40It's after the second.
00:26:42I'm on my own.
00:26:49That was the second cheek.
00:26:51You're breaking my wrist.
00:26:52Well, I understand there's a fine doctor in town.
00:26:54Please don't.
00:26:55Please don't break.
00:26:56I trust I'll never see you around Miss Owens again.
00:26:58No, never.
00:26:59Good.
00:27:00Now, get.
00:27:01Good morning, Miss Owens.
00:27:14You on your way to school?
00:27:15Indeed I am.
00:27:18May I walk with you?
00:27:18I did the best I could, Jim, but you better go easy on it, all right?
00:27:30My boss strikes me as a hard-working man.
00:27:45He lives and breathes work.
00:27:47Ma says sometimes he rolls open to sleep and tries to use her arms like a set of tongs.
00:27:51I guess that's the future I have to look forward to.
00:27:54Not such a bad life.
00:27:57So what about you?
00:27:59You want a doctor like your ma?
00:28:01I don't know.
00:28:02I haven't decided.
00:28:04Future's still.
00:28:05One thing for sure, I want to go to college.
00:28:07Have a nice day.
00:28:09Joshua.
00:28:10You too, Lily.
00:28:10I don't think you should be climbing the stairs.
00:28:21But I feel fine.
00:28:22What's making me crazy is sitting in a dark room all day.
00:28:26But it's only been three days since you had pain and felt faint.
00:28:29You know the symptoms and treatment as well as I do.
00:28:31That's assuming your diagnosis is correct.
00:28:37Is that singing?
00:28:38I wouldn't know that voice anywhere.
00:28:41That's Mary.
00:28:42Your mother-in-law?
00:28:43What reason does she have to be here?
00:28:45Mary doesn't need a reason to do anything.
00:28:57Well, this must be it.
00:29:04Thank you, my good man.
00:29:06Well, and you have a blessed day.
00:29:10And you must be the infamous Doc Owen.
00:29:14Infamous.
00:29:16Mary Watson.
00:29:17Oh, she knew that already.
00:29:19Now, where is my peach pie?
00:29:23Would you be a dear and bring my thing along?
00:29:32Mary, what are you doing here?
00:29:33Where else would you expect me to be?
00:29:36Oh, my little lamb.
00:29:37But didn't you get the telegraph from Melinda's husband?
00:29:39I did.
00:29:40That's why I'm here.
00:29:41I have nothing against you finishing out your term with your friend.
00:29:44But I certainly wasn't going to miss the birth of my first grandson.
00:29:49I've missed you.
00:29:51Oh, it's darker than the inside of a cow in here.
00:29:54Yes, it is.
00:29:54Oh, please don't do that.
00:29:56What?
00:29:57She's not a mushroom.
00:29:58She needs light.
00:30:00All right, Doc.
00:30:01Let's sit up so I can get a good look.
00:30:03I'm sorry.
00:30:04What are you doing?
00:30:04I'm getting her upright.
00:30:06If she stays in this bed too long, she'll get a crick in her back and it'll make delivery
00:30:11much more painful.
00:30:12I think it's better that she's on bed rest for the remainder of her term.
00:30:15It's not going to hurt her to sit up.
00:30:18When you've delivered as many babies as I have, you learn a few things.
00:30:22Well, I've been to medical school for years and rest is the proper treatment.
00:30:26You don't learn everything in medical school.
00:30:29That is a matter of opinion and I wholeheartedly disagree.
00:30:32Ladies, I'm not a sack of flour.
00:30:42There I was in the middle of the worst blizzard I ever saw.
00:30:47I wasn't too surprised when three babies were delivered that night.
00:30:52I expected twins, not triplets.
00:30:56In a blizzard?
00:30:57Oh, the little ones pop out whenever they want, regardless of the weather.
00:31:02Fortunately, I don't have many emergencies.
00:31:05Women giving birth are always an emergency.
00:31:09That's the penalty we pay for Eve eating the apple.
00:31:14It is not a penalty.
00:31:16Wow, Mrs. Watson, you sure got an exciting life.
00:31:18Well, I should probably get you up to your room, Annie.
00:31:21You let that little fella start running your life now,
00:31:24you'll be lacing his shoes when he's 30.
00:31:27Yes, Annie told me you believe it's a boy.
00:31:30Believe? Nothing.
00:31:31It's a fact.
00:31:32Honestly, Mary, you can't possibly...
00:31:34Actually, I am a little tired.
00:31:36I'm gonna go to bed.
00:31:39I can manage on my own.
00:31:41Good night, all.
00:31:43Good night, Annie.
00:31:44Rest well, dear.
00:31:45Good night, Annie.
00:31:46Good night, Annie.
00:31:51There is no way to tell whether...
00:31:53Well, I think it's time we all settle down.
00:31:55Huh?
00:31:56We'll have a full day tomorrow.
00:32:03Thank you for dinner, Dr. Holmes.
00:32:07Joshua.
00:32:08William told us that you came to her rescue.
00:32:11Our mother and I both appreciate it.
00:32:12It was my pleasure, sir.
00:32:14Thank you again.
00:32:18I'll walk you out.
00:32:19I'll walk you out.
00:32:19Aren't they the most adorable couple?
00:32:34So tell me,
00:32:35how was Captain Nemo this evening?
00:32:38When I left him,
00:32:39he was exploring the ruins of Atlantis,
00:32:40although I can't say for sure
00:32:41what he does when I'm not looking.
00:32:44I never met a girl who made a book sound so interesting.
00:32:47You can borrow it if you like.
00:32:48Oh, no, I'm not sure if I'm sold on Nemo just yet.
00:32:51Maybe you could read some of it to me, though.
00:32:54Just so I can find out if it's my kind of story.
00:32:56I could do that.
00:32:58Would you like to go on a picnic with me?
00:33:00Maybe on Saturday?
00:33:01We can go out and find a nice quiet spot and read.
00:33:05I think I know just the place.
00:33:08Lee Owens, you are not spying on our only daughter.
00:33:10I'm not spying on her.
00:33:11I'm just looking out for her.
00:33:18Good night.
00:33:27Let's see what you got there.
00:33:42Well, you're, uh, really improving.
00:33:47Thank you, sir.
00:33:48I'm trying my best to impress you.
00:33:51As long as it's me you're trying to impress.
00:33:53Well, to be honest, I wanted to ask you, maybe, uh, Lillian and I...
00:34:03You want permission to court Lillian, right?
00:34:06Yes, sir.
00:34:09Well, I don't want to distract her from her goals.
00:34:12I promise I'll be respectful of her and not get in the way of her school.
00:34:14I know how much she wants to go to college.
00:34:17Well, I'll think about it, all right?
00:34:22I understand.
00:34:24Meantime, finish up with that horseshoe.
00:34:27Lillian wants his order by noon.
00:34:29Yes, sir.
00:34:29You're going to be late opening your clinic.
00:34:33I don't feel comfortable leaving Annie here all alone,
00:34:36and I certainly don't feel comfortable with her being out of bed this much.
00:34:39You know, I wish the two of you wouldn't talk about me as if I wasn't sitting right here.
00:34:44Sorry, sweetheart.
00:34:46You must be so frustrated, pooped up inside all the time.
00:34:51I will be here with her all day.
00:34:55You tend to your patients, and we'll see you at supper.
00:34:59If you need anything, I'll be close by.
00:35:06Have a nice day.
00:35:11Praise the Lord, we're free.
00:35:15Peach pie, you get dressed.
00:35:17We are going out to smell the roses.
00:35:22Oh, I'm coming to town.
00:35:24Oh.
00:35:29Doc Owens?
00:35:34Can I talk to you?
00:35:35Mrs. McQueen, come in.
00:35:39I only have a minute.
00:35:41I left Lloyd at the general store.
00:35:42Said I was running to the butcher.
00:35:44What can I do for you, Mabel?
00:35:45Doc, I feel terrible.
00:35:47This sickness, it's just getting worse.
00:35:49I'm dizzy all the time, and I can barely pick up the youngins.
00:35:51That's because your anemia is getting worse.
00:35:53Your body needs iron.
00:35:55You're only going to get sicker.
00:35:56What can I do to make it better?
00:35:58I already told you.
00:35:59Vegetables are the tonic.
00:36:00If you don't listen to my instructions, there is nothing more I can do.
00:36:03I tried to take the tonic.
00:36:05Really, I did.
00:36:06Even started to feel a little stronger.
00:36:08And then Lloyd found it, and you know the rest.
00:36:11I certainly do.
00:36:12He threw a bottle at me.
00:36:13I'm sorry for that.
00:36:14Really, I am.
00:36:15He was just upset.
00:36:16He didn't mean anything by it.
00:36:18He's a wonderful husband and a father.
00:36:21Maybe.
00:36:21But I can't help you if you won't help yourself.
00:36:28Good day, Mrs. McQueen.
00:36:29Your friend Belinda doesn't seem too happy.
00:36:53I'd say it's just that she doesn't like me, but everybody likes me.
00:36:57She isn't happy.
00:37:01She's been trying to have a baby.
00:37:03And Belinda just feels discouraged.
00:37:06Me showing up in my condition and staying till the baby comes, I think it's just another
00:37:11painful reminder.
00:37:13Why didn't you say something sooner?
00:37:16If it's baby trouble she's got, I've surely got the cure.
00:37:21How about a sugary treat?
00:37:22I'm sorry, Lloyd.
00:37:27It isn't here yet.
00:37:29It's been over a week.
00:37:30You said it'd be here by now.
00:37:32The freight line lost the shipping order.
00:37:34There's nothing I can do about it.
00:37:36There's something I could do if there was another general store within 10 miles of here.
00:37:40It'll be here within a week.
00:37:42I'm here, Lloyd.
00:37:43What took you so long?
00:37:47I'm sorry, Lloyd.
00:37:48There was a little bit of a line.
00:37:50There's always an excuse.
00:37:51Let's get out of here.
00:37:52I got fences to mend before sundown.
00:37:54She's just feeling poorly or late.
00:38:07She's got a newborn and five youngins.
00:38:09Says it wears her out.
00:38:11You think a mother doesn't work?
00:38:13I've seen this a bunch during and after pregnancy.
00:38:19This is a severe case of anemia.
00:38:21She don't need coddling, lady.
00:38:22I know how to take care of my wife.
00:38:25No, you don't.
00:38:27You are selfish and rude and contemptuous and you can't see the forest for the trees.
00:38:34Doc Owens is trying to save your wife's life.
00:38:38She's dying.
00:38:39You get her over to the clinic and you beg Doc Owens for more of that tonic.
00:38:47Don't talk to me like that.
00:38:48I'll talk to you any way I want.
00:38:51Get her to the clinic.
00:38:56You better pray to the merciful and good Lord that she doesn't slam the door in your ungrateful face.
00:39:06Amen.
00:39:07Amen.
00:39:09I gave you a double dose, so do not take any more today.
00:39:23No, ma'am.
00:39:24Starting tomorrow morning, take two teaspoons every morning.
00:39:27And if you don't get your strength back in four days, get back in here.
00:39:30I'd like to apologize.
00:39:38Last time we spoke, I lost my temper.
00:39:41What'll owe you for the tonic?
00:39:42Only that you allow her to keep taking it.
00:39:45You don't need no charity.
00:39:46The first one was already paid for.
00:39:47This is just a replacement.
00:39:50Step up!
00:39:51Yes, dear.
00:40:09I'm sorry.
00:40:10You're sleeping?
00:40:11Well, not anymore.
00:40:12My apprentice wants to court Lillian.
00:40:18His name is Joshua.
00:40:21I told him I'd think about it.
00:40:24Well, then think.
00:40:27Don't think too long.
00:40:29Lillian's grown up.
00:40:30I'm having a hard time with it.
00:40:32You're having a hard time letting her grow up.
00:40:35Just try to protect her.
00:40:37I don't think she needs protection from Joshua.
00:40:40He's a very nice young man.
00:40:42That's all you have to say about her?
00:40:45Good night, sweetheart.
00:40:52All right.
00:40:54Tomorrow, I'll give Joshua my permission to court Lillian.
00:40:57All right.
00:41:07I think I don't know about your little excursion with Annie.
00:41:13This town is filled with gossips.
00:41:15Can't keep a secret for more than five minutes.
00:41:17It's a pretty little town, Sykeston.
00:41:20I can see why you like it here.
00:41:22May I ask why you feel the need to go against every instruction I have for Annie?
00:41:27I don't deliberately go against your word.
00:41:31We just disagree about how to treat her.
00:41:34This isn't a competition, Mary.
00:41:35If a patient came to you with gangrene or pneumonia,
00:41:39I wouldn't dream of telling you how to treat them.
00:41:42That's your business.
00:41:44Babies are my business.
00:41:46Have been for 30 years.
00:41:48It's just there's been so many new advancements.
00:41:51Sometimes the old ways are best.
00:41:54Annie may have a serious condition which could be fatal to both her and the baby.
00:41:58Are you sure?
00:41:58Of course I'm not sure, but I'm not taking any chances.
00:42:01So it's true what they say that doctors only practice medicine.
00:42:08This conversation obviously isn't getting us anywhere.
00:42:13So Annie tells me you're barren.
00:42:16Or, uh, or having trouble anyway.
00:42:18I don't think that's any of your concern.
00:42:20I see this problem a lot.
00:42:23If you want, I could give you some remedies that are guaranteed to work.
00:42:26I know how it's done, Mary.
00:42:27I don't think there's anything wrong with you.
00:42:30So what do you think is the problem?
00:42:32You're too high strung.
00:42:34Folks worry too much about work, family, or whether or not they can have a baby.
00:42:40Then years go by and nothing happens.
00:42:44Then one day, they decide to stop trying.
00:42:46And before you know it, they find they're with child.
00:42:50So your sage advice for me is to relax.
00:42:55Read a book before you go to bed.
00:42:57Take some deep breaths.
00:43:00And before you know it, I'll be back to deliver your little one.
00:43:04I'll make sure I try that.
00:43:05Okay.
00:43:10Every baby boy needs his own blanket.
00:43:27Don't you agree?
00:43:28Yes, I do.
00:43:37I'm going to head to the shop for a few hours.
00:43:38I'll be back in time for supper.
00:43:40Don't you ever take time off?
00:43:42Oh, the good book says that a man who doesn't work doesn't deserve to eat.
00:43:46I ain't got a lot of work to do.
00:43:47We just thought you'd have more time off once you hired an apprentice.
00:43:50And I do.
00:43:50Now I'm only two weeks behind instead of six.
00:43:56Julian, you look lovely.
00:43:57Where are you headed off to?
00:43:59Joshua and I are having a picnic.
00:44:00You enjoy yourself.
00:44:02And please tell Joshua that we said hello.
00:44:04I will.
00:44:05You'll be back in time for supper now.
00:44:06No exceptions.
00:44:07I will.
00:44:08I promise.
00:44:10Bye, everyone.
00:44:11Bye, dear.
00:44:26I love it.
00:44:27The sea is everything.
00:44:29It covers seven-tenths of the terrestrial globe.
00:44:31Its breath is pure and healthy.
00:44:33It is an immense desert where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.
00:44:38The sea is the only embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence.
00:44:42It is nothing but love and emotion.
00:44:44It's the living infinite, as one of your poets has said.
00:44:47I've been reading for almost two hours.
00:44:51You must be bored.
00:44:52No, I don't think I can ever get bored listening to you talk.
00:44:55You're just saying that.
00:44:56No.
00:44:57I'm not.
00:44:58I swear.
00:44:59It's just...
00:45:00I'd like this Captain Nemo if he weren't holding his friends hostage all the time.
00:45:04Well, I can't let them go and they might tell the world who he is.
00:45:07Twenty thousand leagues is an allegory.
00:45:08It's about personal freedom.
00:45:10Nemo means nobody in Latin.
00:45:11He's invisible to the world and wants to keep it that way.
00:45:14You're brilliant.
00:45:15You know that?
00:45:16I have not.
00:45:25Lee?
00:45:26You working today?
00:45:29You work harder than any man I know.
00:45:32Well, I can't let the customers down.
00:45:34Besides, it gives me thinking time.
00:45:36Anything that you'd like to share with your pastor?
00:45:38This is a lot of rumbling around in my head like a marble.
00:45:43Sometimes it helps to speak it out loud.
00:45:45Talking to yourself only gets the answer you're looking for.
00:45:49I just can't figure Lillian out.
00:45:52I'm trying to be a good father to her.
00:45:55Our children grow up, start spreading their wings.
00:45:59A father has to be aware of that and try to grow with his child.
00:46:04Yeah.
00:46:05Belinda tolerates more than I do.
00:46:06She's a mother.
00:46:08The good Lord gave them the patience of Job when it comes to raising their children.
00:46:12He sure changed fathers in that area.
00:46:15Yeah.
00:46:17Yeah.
00:46:17I really wish you would get some rest.
00:46:25I feel fine.
00:46:27Looks like someone may have been wrong about my condition.
00:46:30Perhaps.
00:46:34So, have things improved with Lee?
00:46:36He says he isn't bothered, but...
00:46:38I still sense that he's disappointed we can't have a baby.
00:46:41Well, maybe you're just being overly sensitive and you think that he's disappointed.
00:46:45Maybe.
00:46:47You know, I'm starting to think that maybe she would rest marrying me.
00:46:50Now, Lee, that is just plain nonsense.
00:46:54She's proud as a peacock that she married you.
00:46:57Maybe.
00:46:58Have you spoken to her about it?
00:47:00In a roundabout way.
00:47:02Of course, she says I'm wrong.
00:47:03Still, she seems kind of distant lately.
00:47:07She's got something on her mind.
00:47:09Most women do when they get like that.
00:47:12You know, we're, uh...
00:47:14Trying to have a baby.
00:47:18So far, no luck.
00:47:19You have to have faith.
00:47:22I'm trying this hard, River.
00:47:23Talk to her about your feelings.
00:47:29I'd best be getting home.
00:47:31Mrs. Davis will give me an earful if I'm late for supper.
00:47:33Yeah, myself included.
00:47:41Well, I see.
00:47:43You didn't need my help putting supper on the table.
00:47:46You're taking a nap, ma'am.
00:47:48We just wanted you to be able to rest.
00:47:50I'll rest enough when I'm dead.
00:47:51Give me that knife before you cut yourself.
00:47:57So, do you miss your family?
00:48:03I do.
00:48:05My pa's a farmer back in Pennsylvania.
00:48:07You wanted more from me than to spend my entire life plowing fields.
00:48:11So, I said if I got good enough, maybe I can find some work in Philadelphia.
00:48:15Sounds like he cares about you a lot.
00:48:17Yeah, my family's pretty close.
00:48:19It's kind of strange, though.
00:48:22You know, being out here all by myself.
00:48:25I have three sisters and two brothers and not a moment apiece.
00:48:27Back at the boarding house, I got nothing but quiet.
00:48:30I know what you mean.
00:48:32I mostly grew up in an orphanage until ma'am and pa talked to me when I was ten.
00:48:36I'd spent so long in a room with other kids, I couldn't wait to have a room of my own.
00:48:41Now I miss having someone to talk to.
00:48:43Yeah, me.
00:48:46Do, don't I?
00:48:47So, tell me something.
00:48:51How'd you ever find a place like this, anyway?
00:48:54I stumbled across it by accident while riding one day.
00:48:57And it's so far off the main road, so no one really comes out here.
00:49:00So, I brought some of my old stuff, and now it's where I come to be alone.
00:49:05Well, I can see why.
00:49:07Captain Nemo had a cave near the ocean where he went to escape.
00:49:11This reminds me of it.
00:49:14Well, the timber still seems...
00:49:15I wouldn't do that.
00:49:17Oh!
00:49:17Not as sound as you might think.
00:49:22You're probably right.
00:49:25I think it's best we pack up.
00:49:31Well, I'm happy to see you and Mary are getting along.
00:49:34You know, her fertility advice to me was to relax and read a book before bed.
00:49:40Did you try it?
00:49:42Of course not.
00:49:43She's been doing this longer than we've been alive.
00:49:46I can't believe you, Annie Watson.
00:49:48You've spent three years in medical school, five years practicing medicine, and you're gonna believe that woman's folk magic?
00:49:54It's rubbish, plain and simple.
00:49:56We ask people to believe in things they don't understand, and they do.
00:50:00Because they have trust and faith in us.
00:50:03Just like they have faith in the Lord.
00:50:04Okay, it is not the same thing, and we're talking about Mary here.
00:50:07Why do you have such a hard time believing in Mary's ways?
00:50:09Okay, Mary is a lovely woman, but you have to admit, she's a little touched on the head.
00:50:16She doesn't like me any more than I like her.
00:50:18Really?
00:50:19The other day at the general store, Mary defended you to the ends of the earth.
00:50:24What are you talking about?
00:50:25The man with the anemic wife?
00:50:27The one that you said was such a success story?
00:50:29Mary is the reason that he brought her back to you.
00:50:32That's why Lloyd McQueen brought his wife back to me?
00:50:35Mary unloaded on him like a tornado.
00:50:37Spoke up for you, and just plain made him cower.
00:50:43I'm on.
00:50:44Let's go.
00:50:52Do you have any idea what time it is?
00:50:54Hi, Pa.
00:50:56You were supposed to be home for supper.
00:50:58Joshua and I weren't that hungry, so we decided to stay out a little while longer.
00:51:01Well, it's well past supper.
00:51:02That's more than a little while.
00:51:04Why are you so angry?
00:51:05I thought I could trust your judgment, but apparently I was wrong.
00:51:08What's that supposed to mean?
00:51:09It means you can't spend any more time with Joshua Coil until I say so.
00:51:13Go to school, help your mother at the clinic, and come straight home.
00:51:16For how long?
00:51:17As long as it takes me to trust you again.
00:51:18That's completely unfair.
00:51:20Joshua's only two years older than I am, and no one tells him what to do.
00:51:23No one said the world was fair, young lady.
00:51:25Hey, Lil, I was worried about you.
00:51:31Hello, Joshua.
00:51:54Good afternoon, ma'am.
00:52:00Mr. Owens told me how much trouble I caused the other night.
00:52:03I just wanted to come by and say how sorry I am for keeping Lillian out so late.
00:52:07You needn't place the blame all on yourself.
00:52:09She's old enough to know better.
00:52:11No, I'm still sorry.
00:52:12Ma, I can't find the...
00:52:15bandages.
00:52:16Pa said I can't see you for a while.
00:52:21Pa said you couldn't go out with Joshua.
00:52:24He said nothing about the two of you seeing each other.
00:52:27Thanks, ma.
00:52:31Well, I have work to do.
00:52:34It was nice to see you, Joshua.
00:52:35There's always room open at the dinner table for you.
00:52:39Thank you, ma'am.
00:52:39I'm sorry to get you into trouble.
00:52:47You didn't do anything wrong, and neither did I.
00:52:49I'm a grown woman, and I don't need my pa deciding how late I can and can't stay out.
00:52:53He's just worried about you is all.
00:52:55Well, he doesn't need to be.
00:52:56There's no need to be cross, Lillian.
00:52:58I mean, I'll still be here when you get off punishment.
00:53:00I'm not going anywhere.
00:53:03I wanted to return this.
00:53:05Finished it.
00:53:06Ready?
00:53:07I just gave it to you.
00:53:08Once I got started, it was hard to quit.
00:53:11I mean, the sun was already up when I finally closed the book.
00:53:13So you stayed up all night just to read about Captain Nemo?
00:53:16No.
00:53:16I don't think I would have gotten much sleep with or without him.
00:53:22I'll be thinking about you.
00:53:24Me too.
00:53:25Me too.
00:53:38Mary?
00:53:45In here, dear.
00:53:54Annie, should you be up?
00:53:55Where are you going?
00:53:56I've decided to head on home.
00:54:00I can see you're in good hands.
00:54:02You're leaving?
00:54:04Before the baby comes?
00:54:06Oh, you'll do fine.
00:54:09And besides, the last thing you need is an old granny midwife gumming up the works.
00:54:15This doesn't have anything to do with the disagreement between you and Belinda, does it?
00:54:20Oh, no, no, no.
00:54:23Truth is, I'm feeling homesick.
00:54:27I miss sleeping in my own bed.
00:54:30And my patients back home don't have a smart lady doctor to take care of them.
00:54:36If you've made your decision, I can't stop you.
00:54:39I'd really love for you to stay, though.
00:54:42I want my family here when the baby comes.
00:54:44Belinda is your family, sweetheart.
00:54:48And Peter will be back with you next week.
00:54:51Besides, all of you will be home before long, and somebody's got to get the house ready.
00:54:59I'm going to go home to check on Annie.
00:55:01I shouldn't be long.
00:55:02If there's an emergency, just send them my way or come running, which you're very good at.
00:55:06I will, Ma.
00:55:07And thank you.
00:55:08For what?
00:55:09For understanding about me and Joshua.
00:55:11Believe it or not, I was your age once.
00:55:26I'm not going to keep her from church social.
00:55:29You may not be able to go with her, but you'll see her there.
00:55:33In the meantime, we have an order to finish.
00:55:36Well, all right.
00:55:38I like your attitude.
00:55:47You're leaving.
00:55:49Time for me to go home.
00:55:50Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
00:55:52I'm going to see her off into town.
00:55:54Annie, I just don't think it's a good idea for you to be carrying luggage and walking to town.
00:55:58It was my idea, Belinda.
00:55:59And I've been all over this whole territory through my entire pregnancy.
00:56:02I think I can handle a short walk into town.
00:56:05Doc Owens!
00:56:09Danny.
00:56:12Lillian told me he was here.
00:56:13Ma's in labor.
00:56:14Okay.
00:56:15There's a horse and buggy in the barn.
00:56:16Help me hook it up.
00:56:17Yes, ma'am.
00:56:17I trust you weren't walking to town along the way.
00:56:24All right, Peach Pie.
00:56:26You get back in the house and stay put.
00:56:29Belinda and I have a baby to deliver.
00:56:31Mrs. Travis is my patient.
00:56:34If you find you don't need me, you have my permission to just shove me out of the way.
00:56:39But if you do, I'm there.
00:56:42Fine, but only because I don't have time to argue with you.
00:56:57Thank you, young man.
00:57:03It's never taken this long.
00:57:05The first few hours seemed normal, but then it just stopped.
00:57:07What stopped?
00:57:08The contractions?
00:57:08No, Doc, the baby.
00:57:10It's like it's stuck, but I can't see the head.
00:57:11I'll see you, too.
00:57:13Your mama's going to be fine.
00:57:17It's a fetal dystocia.
00:57:19A what?
00:57:20The baby's shoulder is stuck.
00:57:21What are you fixing to do with that?
00:57:23We have to get the baby out before it suffocates.
00:57:25We start pulling.
00:57:27We could make things worse.
00:57:29What should we do?
00:57:30Well, if you can't get the baby out from the inside, you'd try it from the outside.
00:57:37All right, help me with her now.
00:57:39That's good.
00:57:40What are we doing?
00:57:41We're going to flatten out her hip bones.
00:57:46She's trying to stay down for me.
00:57:48There.
00:57:48Now, we're going to see if you're stuck and who's not.
00:57:52It's going to be all right.
00:58:19Pa?
00:58:20Pa?
00:58:21Pa?
00:58:22Pa?
00:58:23Pa?
00:58:24Pa?
00:58:25Hello, Joshua.
00:58:26Where's my pa?
00:58:27He's on delivery.
00:58:28Then headed home.
00:58:29I'd sure like to go to the ice cream social.
00:58:34I'd sure like to ask you to go with me.
00:58:35So?
00:58:36Your pa said I could see you there.
00:58:37But I can't escort you.
00:58:38I'm sorry.
00:58:40I'm sorry.
00:58:41I'm sorry.
00:58:42I'm sorry.
00:58:43I'm sorry.
00:58:44I'm sorry.
00:58:45I'm sorry.
00:58:46I'm sorry.
00:58:47I'm sorry.
00:58:48I'm sorry.
00:58:49I'm sorry.
00:58:50I'm sorry.
00:58:51I'm sorry.
00:58:56Joshua.
00:58:57Pa is being so unreasonable.
00:58:59We were late coming home, okay?
00:59:02Don't tell me you're on his side.
00:59:03What's the difference in an hour or so?
00:59:05We got home just fine.
00:59:06He just doesn't trust me.
00:59:07Your pa had no way of knowing whether you are alright when you didn't make it home on time.
00:59:11You sound just like Pa.
00:59:12Ma is the only one who understands.
00:59:14Lillian, wait a second.
00:59:16I'm sorry.
00:59:17You're sorry.
00:59:18I'm sorry.
00:59:19I'm sorry.
00:59:20I'm sorry.
00:59:21You're sorry.
00:59:22You're sorry.
00:59:23You're sorry.
00:59:24No, sorry.
00:59:25What's the wrong path?
00:59:26You're sorry.
00:59:27No, I'm sorry.
00:59:28You're at the wrong time.
00:59:29No.
00:59:30That's not true.
00:59:33You're right.
00:59:34But the man wants to talk to mind.
00:59:35It's a beautiful baby boy and your wife is fine.
01:00:03Can I see them?
01:00:04Shortly.
01:00:05Well, looks like we got ourselves a baby brother.
01:00:17Isn't he beautiful?
01:00:19He sure is.
01:00:22He better be.
01:00:24Leave it to a boy to jam up the works.
01:00:27Uh, that's not doctor's work.
01:00:41It doesn't matter who does it, just as long as it gets done.
01:00:44I learned something today that they didn't teach me medical school.
01:00:51I did it.
01:01:03I did it.
01:01:04I heard it.
01:01:05It ain't no good than you, bro.
01:01:06I know.
01:01:07My mother...
01:01:07Come on, Geralt.
01:01:08Come on.
01:01:09Come on.
01:01:09Come on.
01:01:12Come on.
01:01:21Come on.
01:01:22All right, whoa.
01:01:36Whoa.
01:01:44Whoa.
01:01:48You seen Lillian?
01:01:50No, why?
01:01:51Well, we thought she might be with you.
01:01:52She's been missing all afternoon.
01:01:54We got in an argument at the shop over Mr. Owens, and she stormed off.
01:01:57Said you were the only one who understands her.
01:01:59We were hoping she'd run up to find you.
01:02:01She rode off on that crazy horse I bought for her.
01:02:04It's about to get dark outside.
01:02:05She gets stuck in the countryside.
01:02:08I think I know where she is.
01:02:17Come on.
01:02:17It's worse this time.
01:02:30I feel like I could faint.
01:02:31Okay, okay.
01:02:32Let's get her inside.
01:02:34It looks as if the doctor was right about bed rest.
01:02:37She's got nothing.
01:02:49Come on.
01:02:59Come on.
01:03:02Come on.
01:03:02How much further?
01:03:13She's just up ahead.
01:03:21How are you feeling?
01:03:23I'm really not as light as it is before.
01:03:26I like to just go to bed.
01:03:28Let's get you upstairs to a darkened room.
01:03:31Doctors' orders.
01:03:32Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:03:43Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:03:55I like this before.
01:04:10No, sir.
01:04:11Looks like there is a cave in.
01:04:13She might be hurt.
01:04:16This is one of her lamps.
01:04:17Let's go.
01:04:19Lil!
01:04:21Lil!
01:04:30It's right up there.
01:04:32I see her.
01:04:35Lil!
01:04:38Lil.
01:04:39Give me a hand with this.
01:04:41One, two, three!
01:04:47You got it?
01:04:48You got it?
01:04:49Lil.
01:04:51Lil.
01:04:53Come on.
01:04:54Talk to me, pumpkin.
01:04:54Come on.
01:04:55Talk to me, pumpkin.
01:05:01Pa?
01:05:02Yeah.
01:05:03I'm here, honey.
01:05:04Just take it easy.
01:05:08Just stay down, all right?
01:05:11I'm going to get you out of here.
01:05:13Okay.
01:05:13Okay.
01:05:13Okay.
01:05:14How's Lillian?
01:05:38A few cuts and bruises, but nothing that won't heal nicely.
01:05:44She's out for the night.
01:05:46Lee's sitting with her for a while.
01:05:48Give her a couple days.
01:05:50She'll be right as rain.
01:05:51At that age, nothing keeps them down.
01:05:55Well, I think her ego has suffered more than her body.
01:05:59This too shall pass.
01:06:03Children are just so resilient, aren't they?
01:06:07True miracles.
01:06:08Are you still fretting about the baby-making?
01:06:11I don't think I'll be making babies anytime soon, Mary.
01:06:14Give it up if you want.
01:06:16But I'm telling you, the shine in your hair is not the mark of a barren woman.
01:06:23You don't really believe that, do you?
01:06:25Doesn't matter what I believe.
01:06:27Only matters what you believe.
01:06:29What do you mean?
01:06:29Medicine isn't the only thing that makes people feel better.
01:06:34It's believing that they can be better.
01:06:36I'm sorry I doubted you.
01:06:41You didn't deserve it.
01:06:43The Lord says we are to forgive if we expect to be forgiven.
01:06:49Make me some fresh bacon and eggs in the morning and all is forgiven.
01:06:54That's a promise.
01:07:04Late night tonight.
01:07:06Everyone's worn out.
01:07:08A little sleeping like a pup.
01:07:10You know, I think I might read a book before bed tonight.
01:07:23Really?
01:07:24You never read in bed.
01:07:25I think it'll do me good.
01:07:28Help me unwind after the long day we've all had.
01:07:31Hmm.
01:07:36Doc.
01:07:37I've been thinking about us trying to have a baby.
01:07:42Lil's changed our lives in so many wonderful ways.
01:07:46And I'm sure there's plenty of children down at the orphanage.
01:07:49You need a good home.
01:07:50You mean you'll still be happy even if we can't have children of our home?
01:07:54I'll be happy as long as I'm with you.
01:07:58Always have been.
01:07:59Always will be.
01:08:02Do you think my hair is shiny?
01:08:07Yeah.
01:08:08Yeah, I like the sunrise.
01:08:14I do love you, Mr. Owens.
01:08:17I love you, too.
01:08:19Good night.
01:08:21Oh, all right.
01:08:22You can read your book now?
01:08:24Okay.
01:08:26All right.
01:08:29I'll go to sleep.
01:08:37I'm sure I can't help you read it or...
01:08:39No.
01:08:40All right.
01:08:50Shouldn't you be in bed?
01:08:52My ball and chain let me come downstairs.
01:08:55She has her mind set on going to the ice cream social.
01:08:59What if I find a shady, comfortable place to just sit and eat ice cream?
01:09:02You are not going to the social.
01:09:05I am a doctor.
01:09:06I vote yes.
01:09:07Well, that's one vote for Dr. Annie and one vote for the midwife.
01:09:11I guess you've got the tie-breaking vote, Doc.
01:09:17I'm sorry, Annie.
01:09:18I'm going to have to side with the midwife.
01:09:20But I love ice cream.
01:09:21Then I'll send you some.
01:09:23It's not the same.
01:09:24How do I know you're not going to sneak out when we're gone?
01:09:26Don't give it a second thought, Doc.
01:09:28This old ball and chain will be sitting right here like a prison warden.
01:09:33You're both against me.
01:09:34That's right.
01:09:35Read your book and pout.
01:09:49Don't you look beautiful?
01:09:52Except for this.
01:09:53Oh, no one will even notice that.
01:09:55Even Joshua.
01:09:56Especially Joshua.
01:09:58Thanks for telling Joshua you can escort me to the social.
01:10:01You're still coming with your mother and I, right?
01:10:03I told him I wanted to walk in with my family and see him from afar.
01:10:06That's very romantic.
01:10:08Must be from all the books I read.
01:10:11Pa.
01:10:13I'm sorry for not making curfew the other night.
01:10:17Oh, no, you were just worried about me.
01:10:18Don't worry about it.
01:10:19You're growing up so fast sometimes I can't keep up with you.
01:10:25Thanks, Pa.
01:10:26Come here.
01:10:27And then he stepped like this.
01:10:45Here you go.
01:10:46Come here, honey.
01:10:50Here you go.
01:10:52Mr. Owens, Dr. Owens, would you like some lemonade?
01:10:54No, thank you.
01:10:55No, thank you, Joshua.
01:11:03Hey, partner.
01:11:04How'd your ice cream?
01:11:06Doc Owens, can we talk?
01:11:08Boyd, maybe you know my husband Lee.
01:11:12Boyd?
01:11:13I want to thank you.
01:11:14Mabel's as different as night and day.
01:11:17It's all I can do to keep up with her.
01:11:19Well, you do look like a brand new person.
01:11:21I've had a lot more energy.
01:11:23I still need some extra sleep in the afternoons.
01:11:25I'm getting stronger every day.
01:11:26Well, the best medicine is no good if it isn't dispensed to receive with a joyful spirit.
01:11:32It's all too easy to forget that.
01:11:33Well, I mostly want to apologize for being stubborn.
01:11:40Thanks again, Doc.
01:11:41It was my pleasure.
01:11:43And I should be the one to apologize to you, Mabel.
01:11:47I had no right to be crossed with you when you needed my help.
01:11:50I hope you can forgive me.
01:11:51There's nothing to forgive.
01:11:56Have a good day.
01:11:56That was a very nice thing you just did.
01:12:06You'd like some ice cream?
01:12:07I'd love some.
01:12:08I'd love some.
01:12:26I got Lee's telegram.
01:12:27Where's Annie?
01:12:28The Lord brought you at the right time.
01:12:31Everyone's in town at a social.
01:12:32I need Belinda now.
01:12:34I want to see Annie.
01:12:36Get Belinda now.
01:12:42You look beautiful.
01:12:44Say, do you look handsome?
01:12:48I still can't believe it.
01:12:50Can't believe what?
01:12:52I bet I'm here with the smartest, most beautiful girl in town.
01:12:56It's very sweet of you to say, Joshua.
01:13:12Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:14Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:16Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:18Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:19Gracie, Shannon, you go on and get out of here.
01:13:21All right.
01:13:22Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:23Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:24I'm here with you.
01:13:25I'm here with you.
01:13:26I'm here with you.
01:13:27I'm here with you.
01:13:28I'm here with you.
01:13:29I'm here with you.
01:13:30I'm here with you.

01:13:34Whoa!

01:13:39Peter!
01:13:40It's Annie.
01:13:41You gotta come quick.
01:13:42Joshua, you see to it that Lillian gets home safe.
01:13:45Yes, sir.
01:13:46Ya!
01:13:47Ya!
01:13:48Ya!
01:13:49Stand back!

01:14:00She's had a seizure.
01:14:01I've got her in bed.
01:14:03Pete.
01:14:05You're the best way down here.
01:14:07There's nothing you can do up there.
01:14:15Dear Lord, please watch over Annie and her baby.
01:14:26Amen.
01:14:27Amen.
01:14:29Thank you, Lee.
01:14:30You're welcome.

01:17:12We're slightly raised, but our heart beat and our breathing are normal.
01:17:17No contractions yet.
01:17:19It doesn't seem to be working.
01:17:21It's never taken this long.
01:17:23Let's just give it a little more time.
01:17:26We could lose Annie and the baby.
01:17:29Do you have everything here that you need to do a cesarean delivery?
01:17:39How about taking a spoonful of that faith you're always talking about?
01:17:42I'm going to make some tea.
01:17:48Do you like a cup?
01:17:49No, thank you.
01:18:04Any news?
01:18:05Nothing yet.
01:18:07I'm going to have a cup of tea.
01:18:09You're doing fine, Annie.
01:18:30Just keep breathing.
01:18:31Come on.
01:18:32I'm going to have a cup of tea.

01:18:44It's all right.
01:18:44Good job.

01:18:50Ahhhhh!
01:18:51Ahhhhh!
01:19:10Congratulations Uncle Ado!
01:19:18She's so beautiful.
01:19:21I've delivered hundreds of babies, but I've never seen one this perfect.
01:19:27And I'm not just saying that because she's my granddaughter.
01:19:30I thought she was a boy.
01:19:33She carried like a boy.
01:19:36We live and learn, don't we, Doc?
01:19:38We sure do.
01:19:39Thank you both for being here.
01:19:41There's no other place we'd rather be.
01:19:47Is it okay if I come in?
01:19:54Come meet your daughter, Peter.
01:20:02Can I hold her?
01:20:05Come sit.
01:20:17How about your present?
01:20:40Present?
01:20:42These are a few of my favorites.
01:20:43When I asked you for a few books, I thought you'd get me one or two.
01:20:48The way you went through 20,000 links, I figured you'd use a few more.
01:20:52Oh, you think so?
01:20:56I should probably get going.
01:20:58Okay.
01:20:59Will I see you later?
01:21:01Sure is this one fine day.
01:21:03Come on.
01:21:05Come on.
01:21:05Help me out here.
01:21:06Come on.
01:21:06Come on.
01:21:07Come on.
01:21:08Come on.
01:21:09Come on.
01:21:10Come on.
01:21:11Come on.
01:21:12Come on.
01:21:13Come on.
01:21:15Joshua, when you're finished swooning over my daughter, I could use a little help in here.
01:21:20I'm coming.
01:21:23Lord, thank you for the family that surrounds us and the love which envelops us.
01:21:29May we always strive to walk the way you like and be true missionaries of your word.
01:21:36Amen.
01:21:36Amen.
01:21:43Hey, are you all right?
01:21:48I'm fine.
01:21:49I'm just a little stuffy inside.
01:21:51I've gotten so used to you being at the house, it's going to be too quiet when we're gone.
01:21:55Well, it's been a week since my darling daughter was born.
01:21:59I think it's time we go home.
01:22:00I'm going to miss you so very much.
01:22:02And all the more reason for you to come visit us soon.
01:22:10What are you doing out of here?
01:22:11Oh, I was just getting some fresh air, talking to Annie.
01:22:14You're going to miss her, aren't you?
01:22:17Well, we have her for one more night.
01:22:20Let's enjoy her while we can.
01:22:21Thank you very much, Lee.
01:22:32It was my pleasure, Pete.
01:22:34And Belinda.
01:22:35I can never thank you enough.
01:22:37Well, I wish I could take all the credit, but I had some expert help.
01:22:42This has been the happiest time of my life.
01:22:45I'm so glad that I got to share this with you.
01:22:47Me too.
01:22:49All aboard, folks.
01:22:50We're burning daylight.
01:22:51I think it's about that time.
01:22:54Will you hold baby Lindy for me?
01:22:55Of course.
01:23:00Bye, you two.
01:23:08Bye.
01:23:08All right, take her easy there.
01:23:27Well, my friend, we had ourselves an adventure.
01:23:35How do I thank you, Mary?
01:23:37Well, you could start by finding me a husband.
01:23:39I learned a lot from you.
01:23:43And I from you.
01:23:46I may bring him into the world, but you keep him alive and kicking once they're here.
01:23:50Now, if you ever need a good midwife, you know where to find me.
01:23:56I'll go.
01:23:57Oh, young man, I'm going to need a hand here.
01:23:59All right.
01:24:00Here we go.
01:24:02Wait a minute.
01:24:03One, two, three.
01:24:04Oh.
01:24:05Steady, steady, steady, steady.
01:24:15Well, Commodore, are we sailing with the tide?
01:24:26I thought you said we were burning daylight.
01:24:29Yes, ma'am.
01:24:30Yeah, get out.
01:24:32Get out.
01:24:47What are you and Mary whispering to each other?
01:24:49I was just telling her I'd be needing a good midwife.
01:24:52Are you sure?
01:25:03I'm a doctor.
01:25:04I know a pregnant woman when I see one, especially when I am one.
01:25:11Hey.
01:25:13We're going to have a baby.
01:25:15Baby?
01:25:17We're going to have a baby.
01:25:18Lillian Owens, you were late enough for school as it is.
01:25:23Put those running legs to good use.
01:25:25Yes, ma'am.
01:25:28Joshua Coyle, don't just stand there and gawk.
01:25:30You've got a job to do.
01:25:32Yes, ma'am.
01:25:36I've got patients to attend to and baby plans to make.
01:25:39Now, wait up.
01:25:44Now, wait up.
01:25:47How far along are you?
01:25:50Now, I'm serious.
01:25:53Well, we've got to start talking about names, really.
01:25:55I mean, I like leaving for a boy.
01:25:57Oh, you think it's going to be a boy?
01:25:58Or, you know, maybe Daphne for a girl.
01:26:01What do you think?
01:26:02Oh, that's very pretty.
01:26:03Come on, you want a little girl, don't you?
01:26:05Well, what do you think?
01:26:06All right, I'll go.
01:26:07Hold on, I'll get the door for you.
01:26:08Oh, no, wait, oh, my goodness.
01:26:09Oh, my goodness.
01:26:10Stop it.
