Short filmTranscript
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. And 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, about 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.
00:02:14Is there a tonic I can take for this anemia?
00:02:16There is a tonic, but eating vegetables would be much more effective.
00:02:20Lloyd doesn't really like all those vegetables.
00:02:22He prefers his meat and potatoes.
00:02:33You 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.
00:02:59Leaving that bronc of yours saddled all day?
00:03:01I'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.
00:03:19I'll leave you to your work, Lee.
00:03:22Have a good day, Reverend.
00:03:27All finished?
00:03:28It'll be $2 for the doctor and 50 cents for the medicine.
00:03:31I'm sorry your husband doesn't allow me any extra money.
00:03:46I have to use the sock money I've saved up.
00:03:50Why 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.
00:03:56This is quick.
00:03:59Can you tell where all these are with that medicine?
00:04:01I will, absolutely.
00:04:02Very good to see you.
00:04:03Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:04:05Now you take care of yourself.
00:04:06Okay.
00:04:07All right, pal.
00:04:08Let's have a nice, easy ride today.
00:04:14Okay?
00:04:18I don't want any more of that funny business.
00:04:21That's a perfect trial.
00:04:24Here it comes.
00:04:26Easy.
00:04:27I guess we're still in the learning process.
00:04:42Come on.
00:04:43Come on.
00:04:44Come on.
00:04:45Come on.
00:04:46Come on.
00:04:47Come on.
00:04:48Come on.
00:04:50Come on.
00:04:55Aunt Annie's here.
00:04:59Aunt Annie.
00:05:00Oh, Lillian, my love.
00:05:02Oh, no.
00:05:04She looks wonderful, doesn't she, Pop?
00:05:06Sure.
00:05:07She looks very round.
00:05:09I'm so glad you and Uncle Peter are here.
00:05:11Oh, let me get that.
00:05:13Oh, it's fine.
00:05:15Everyone treats me like a china doll.
00:05:16I'm not going to break.
00:05:19I'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.
00:05:34But 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?
00:05:47Broken bones and bee stings.
00:05:48Anything a nursing student can 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, you'll help them get settled in for the night?
00:06:04Nice out.
00:06:19It's good having Annie here.
00:06:21It is.
00:06:23She'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.
00:06:32Well, 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?
00:06:41I'm not pregnant.
00:06:43Don't worry yourself about it.
00:06:44We've tried for so long.
00:06:46We 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 maybe won a baby of our own even more.
00:06:58Now that she's staying with us.
00:07:04No.
00:07:08We are gonna have a beautiful baby of our own.
00:07:11All good things come in God's time, and...
00:07:14Maybe 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, hmm?
00:07:44I guess I'd best be leaving now.
00:07:50Peter, please be careful.
00:07:52Yes.
00:07:53My level and compass are dangerous pieces of equipment.
00:07:56I love you.
00:07:58Love you, too.
00:08:03Bye, ladies.
00:08:04Take good care of my Annie.
00:08:05Will be.
00:08:08Step up!
00:08:15Let me see the door, eh?
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!
00:08:31Oh, oh, DJ!
00:08:36Well, good time, isn't it?
00:08:38In the bags.
00:08:39Got it.
00:08:40Check on the team, Mike.
00:08:43Welcome home, darling.
00:08:44Oh.
00:08:45Thank you for you.
00:08:47How was the trip?
00:08:48Good job!
00:08:57You must be Joshua Coyle.
00:08:58Yes, sir.
00:08:59Who are you always?
00:09:00Welcome, Saxon.
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.
00:09:10Well, Saxon's a nice little town.
00:09:11I hope you like it.
00:09:13I expect so.
00:09:14Can I help you with your things?
00:09:16Don't have months.
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.
00:09:26Delivery work and rolling stock.
00:09:28Custom 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.
00:09:38But you managed to make something in the last generation or two.
00:09:41You know, it gives you a sense of pride.
00:09:44I reckon that's true.
00:09:46Well, what do you say?
00:09:48You ready to get started?
00:09:49Yes, sir.
00:09:50All right, then.
00:09:51All right, then.
00:10:00How was your walk?
00:10:02Are you tearing around a 30-pound sack of flour?
00:10:05Slow day?
00:10:06I'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.
00:10:20I 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.
00:10:36That'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, you 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?
00:11:00It 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 on.
00:11:13You know, my pa says walking's good for man's constitution.
00:11:16You always want?
00:11:18Well, lately I've been riding.
00:11:20You walking to my camp?
00:11:21No.
00:11:23I ain't got a horse to give to Little Ant, but he's still a little green.
00:11:28Pesty.
00:11:30I'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, bro.
00:11:39I stick with wagons.
00:11:41You're better for 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 the doctor and me.
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 gonna 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 her home.
00:12:18Very nice to meet you, Mrs. 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.
00:12:28Ma'am.
00:12:30It's funny, I just had no idea women were allowed to be doctors.
00:12:33Allowed?
00:12:35No, I just...
00:12:36And just who would we need permission from?
00:12:37Go easy on him, 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.
00:12:50We raised her to speak her mind.
00:12:51You'll get used to it.
00:12:53Oh, now.
00:12:56Let's go get washed up.
00:12:59Smells like my favorite.
00:13:01Well, she certainly is your daughter.
00:13:03Indeed.
00:13:17Miss Owens?
00:13:19Mr. Coyle?
00:13:20I just want you to know...
00:13:24I meant no disrespect earlier.
00:13:27I 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.
00:13:46It's just...
00:13:48Well...
00:13:50I've never met a lady doctor before.
00:13:52I'm apologizing.
00:13:54I 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?
00:14:06I'd read just about all day if Mom and Pa let me.
00:14:09Well, all right.
00:14:11I'll leave you to your book, Miss Owens.
00:14:17Good night, Mr. Coyle.
00:14:18Good night, Pa.
00:14:32Nice young man.
00:14:34I hadn't noticed.
00:14:38Good night, pumpkin.
00:14:40Good night, Pa.
00:14:41Good night, Pa.
00:14:56Come in.
00:15:00How are you?
00:15:02I feel fine.
00:15:12Be careful.
00:15:14It's all on the road?
00:15:16I can't get it.
00:15:18Can you help it?
00:15:19No, can I help?
00:15:21Can we just let this sit down?
00:15:24Just...
00:15:26See, you leave this suit and...
00:15:28But it says it's fine with you.
00:15:29It's in the east, babe.
00:15:32It says it's...
00:15:34...it's not home.
00:15:36He's dying.
00:15:48What is...
00:15:50...the baby?
00:15:53It's nothing.
00:16:01It's nothing.
00:16:06So, let's get back to bed.
00:16:14I'll miss you.
00:16:15I'm sorry.
00:16:23I'll miss you.
00:16:25I'll miss you.
00:16:27I'm sorry, too.
00:16:30I'll miss you.
00:16:31Come on.
00:17:01Come on.
00:17:31Tell him what's happening.
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, I made it all.
00:17:39Why are his mother?
00:17:40He said she lives in Spartan.
00:17:43Do 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 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 nodal in clinic and if someone really needs me, they know where to find me.
00:18:33Morning, ladies.
00:18:35Morning.
00:18:36Bye, ma.
00:18:37Have a good day, darling.
00:18:38Bye, ma.
00:18:39Bye.
00:18:40That girl kicks up a pile 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.
00:18:52A 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?
00:18:58Well, it never hurts to hear.
00:19:02I love you too, Lee Owens.
00:19:06Oh, and don't forget to send the telegrams.
00:19:09All right.
00:19:11Have 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 time.
00:19:28Delivery.
00:19:29I have wired Peter the same message.
00:19:32Lee Owens.
00:19:32Oh, that's what I said.
00:19:43Taco.
00:19:43Mr. McQueen.
00:19:46Sorry, 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.
00:19:58Mabel 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.
00:20:14Maybe 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 a...
00:20:23Who's the holler?
00:20:29Are 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 and lose sight of the compassion we should have for others?
00:20:47There 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.
00:21:11Your 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?
00:21:28Hmm.
00:21:29I never would have known.
00:21:31I mean, she and Mrs....
00:21:32I mean, Dr. Owens sort of look alike.
00:21:36Is that a fact?
00:21:37Well, yeah, I mean, it's just Lillian's very pretty.
00:21:41Yeah, I know she's pretty.
00:21:56I'm truthfully not that hungry.
00:21:58Doctor's orders.
00:21:59Even if you don't feel up to it, you need to finish the entire wall.
00:22:03I'm not a child, Belinda.
00:22:05And I'm a doctor.
00:22:06I think I know what's best for me.
00:22:07Knowing and doing are two entirely different things.
00:22:12Is 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?
00:22:25I know it sounds silly, but Mary thinks because I'm caring so low that it'll be a boy.
00:22:30It 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, Mary was concerned because she
00:22:39was caring so far out in front.
00:22:41She said it would be a breached birth, and she was right.
00:22:43One 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.
00:22:53I'll be nervous.
00:22:58It'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.
00:23:09I'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 Leah and I have been trying.
00:23:21We've both seen it take some time.
00:23:24You just can't get impatient with yourself.
00:23:27I look after this one 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?
00:23:35I think she's going to be a little bit.
00:23:41I think she's going to be a little bit.
00:23:41We'll 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.
00:23:47Please eat your soup, Annie.
00:23:50I 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.
00:24:31I noticed you didn't have Joshua over for supper tonight.
00:24:35I'm pretty sure he's sweet on Lillian.
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, Leon.
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 somethings.
00:25:10It's like daring to try to stop her.
00:25:16I get your point.
00:25:18I don't want to get in the way of her happiness.
00:25:20Still, you lived 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.
00:25:29I don't want her tied down to Saxon.
00:25:31I hope she knows what a wonderful and caring father she has.
00:25:39It's getting a little chilly.
00:25:42Want to turn 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.
00:26:29Here!
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.
00:26:41So after the second, I'm on my own.
00:26:42That 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.
00:27:01Now 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?
00:27:30Your boss strikes me as a hard-working man.
00:27:45He lives and breathes work.
00:27:47Ma says sometimes he rolls over to sleep and tries to use your 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, really.
00:27:59So what about you?
00:28:01I'm a doctor like your mom?
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.
00:28:12Well, I better get to work.
00:28:15Have a nice day, Joshua.
00:28:18You too, Lily.
00:28:22Yeah, I heard her.
00:28:29I don't think you should be climbing the stairs.
00:28:32But I feel fine.
00:28:33What's making me crazy is sitting in a dark room all day.
00:28:37But it's only been three days since you had pain and felt faint.
00:28:39You know the symptoms and treatment as well as I do.
00:28:42That's assuming your diagnosis is correct.
00:28:48Is that singing?
00:28:50I would know that voice anywhere.
00:28:52That's Mary.
00:28:53Your mother-in-law?
00:28:54What reason does she have to be here?
00:28:56Mary doesn't need a reason to do anything.
00:28:58Well, this must be it.
00:29:14Oh, jeez.
00:29:15Thank you, my good man.
00:29:18And you have a blessed day.
00:29:21And you must be the infamous Doc Owen.
00:29:25Oh, jeez.
00:29:27Mary Watson.
00:29:28Oh, do you know that already?
00:29:30Now, where is my peach pie?
00:29:34Would you be a dear and bring my thing along?
00:29:36Hmm.
00:29:36Mary, what are you doing here?
00:29:44Where else would you expect me to be?
00:29:47Oh, my little lamb.
00:29:48What?
00:29:48But didn't you get the telegraph from Melinda's husband?
00:29:50I did.
00:29:51That's why I'm here.
00:29:52I have nothing against you finishing out your term with your friend.
00:29:55But 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.
00:30:09She needs light.
00:30:11All right.
00:30:12Let's sit up so I can get a good look.
00:30:14I'm sorry.
00:30:15What are you doing?
00:30:15I'm getting her upright.
00:30:17If she stays in this bed too long, she'll get a crick in her back and it'll make delivery
00:30:22much 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.
00:30:28When you've delivered as many babies as I have, you learn a few things.
00:30:33Well, I've been to medical school for years and 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.
00:30:53There 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.
00:31:03I expected twins, not triplets.
00:31:07In a blizzard?
00:31:09Oh, the little ones pop out whenever they want, regardless of the weather.
00:31:13Fortunately, I don't have many emergencies.
00:31:15Women giving birth are always an emergency.
00:31:20That'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.
00:31:32You let that little fella start running your life now, you'll be lacing his shoes when he's
00:31:3830.
00:31:38Yes, Annie told me you believe it's a boy.
00:31:41Believe?
00:31:41Nothing.
00:31:42It's a fact.
00:31:44Honestly, Mary, you can't possibly...
00:31:45Actually, I am a little tired.
00:31:47I'm gonna go to bed.
00:31:50I can manage on my own.
00:31:53Good night, all.
00:31:54Good night, Annie.
00:31:55Rest well, dear.
00:31:56Good night, Annie.
00:31:57Good night, Annie.
00:31:58Good night, Annie.
00:32:02There is no way to tell whether...
00:32:04Well, I think it's time we all settle down.
00:32:06Huh?
00:32:06We'll have a full day tomorrow.
00:32:14Thank you for dinner, Dr. Holmes.
00:32:18Joshua, William told us that you came to her rescue.
00:32:22Our 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.
00:32:36Aren't they the most adorable couple?
00:32:45So tell me, how was Captain Nemo this evening?
00:32:49When I left him, he was exploring the ruins of Atlantis, although I can't say for sure what
00:32:53he does when I'm not looking.
00:32:54I never met a girl who made a book sound so interesting.
00:32:58You 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.
00:33:05Just so I can find out if it's my kind of story.
00:33:07I could do that.
00:33:09Would you like to go on a picnic with me?
00:33:11Maybe on Saturday?
00:33:12We can go out and find a nice quiet spot and read.
00:33:15I think I know just the place.
00:33:19Lee Owens, you are not spying on our only daughter.
00:33:21I'm not spying on her.
00:33:23I'm just looking out for her.
00:33:31Good night.
00:33:38I'm hiding in labor.
00:33:40Way too expensive.
00:33:45I see what you got there.
00:33:54Well, you're really improving.
00:33:58Thank you, sir.
00:34:00I'm trying my best to impress you.
00:34:02As long as it's me you're trying to impress.
00:34:07Well, to be honest, I wanted to ask you, maybe Lillian and that.
00:34:14And you want permission to court Lillian, right?
00:34:19Yes, sir.
00:34:20Well, I don't want to distract her from her goals.
00:34:23I promise I'll be respectful of her and not get in the way of her schooling.
00:34:25I know how much she wants to go to college.
00:34:28Well, I'll think about it, all right?
00:34:33I understand.
00:34:35Meantime, finish up with that horseshoe.
00:34:38Lillian wants his order by noon.
00:34:40Yes, sir.
00:34:41You're going to be late opening your clinic.
00:34:44I don't feel comfortable leaving Annie here all alone, and I certainly don't feel comfortable
00:34:49with her being out of bed this much.
00:34:50You 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.
00:35:01I will be here with her all day.
00:35:06You tend to your patience, and we'll see you at supper.
00:35:12If you need anything, I'll be close by.
00:35:17Have a nice day.
00:35:18Praise the Lord, we're free.
00:35:26Peach Pie, you get dressed.
00:35:28We are going out to smell the roses.
00:35:33Oh, trip into 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, said 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 going to get sicker.
00:36:07What can I do to make it better?
00:36:09I already told you.
00:36:10Vegetables are the tonic.
00:36:12If you don't listen to my instructions, there is nothing more I can do.
00:36:14I tried to take the tonic.
00:36:16Really, I did.
00:36:17Even started to feel a little stronger.
00:36:19And then Lloyd found it, and you know the rest.
00:36:22I certainly do.
00:36:23He threw a bottle at me.
00:36:24I'm sorry for that.
00:36:25Really, I am.
00:36:26He was just upset.
00:36:27He didn't mean anything by it.
00:36:29He's a wonderful husband and a father.
00:36:32Maybe.
00:36:33But I can't help you if you won't help yourself.
00:36:39Good day, Mrs. McQueen.
00:36:40your friend melinda doesn't seem too happy i'd say it's just that she doesn't like me but

00:40:02yes dear i'm sorry you're sleeping well not anymore
00:40:23my apprentice wants to court lillian
00:40:28his name is joshua
00:40:31i told him i think about it
00:40:35well then think
00:40:37don't think too long lillian's growing 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
00:40:50he's a very nice young man that's all you have to say about it
00:40:57good night sweetheart
00:41:03all right tomorrow i'll give joshua my permission to court lill
00:41:20i think i don't know about your little excursion with annie this town is filled with gossips
00:41:26you can'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
00:41:34may 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 we just disagree about how to treat her this isn't a
00:41:45competition mary if a patient came to you with gangrene or pneumonia i wouldn't dream of telling
00:41:51you how to treat them that's your business babies are my business have been for 30 years it's just
00:41:59there's been so many new advancements sometimes the old ways are best annie may have a serious
00:42:06condition which could be fatal to both her and the baby are you sure of course i'm not sure but
00:42:10i'm not taking any chances so it's true what they say that doctors only practice medicine
00:42:20this conversation obviously isn't getting us anywhere
00:42:24so annie tells me you're barren or uh or having trouble anyway i don't think that's any of your
00:42:30concern i see this problem a lot if you want i could give you some remedies that are guaranteed to work
00:42:37i know how it's done mary i don't think there's anything wrong with you so what do you think is
00:42:42the problem you're too high strung folks worry too much about work family or whether or not they can
00:42:50have a baby then years go by and nothing happens then one day they decide to stop trying and before
00:42:58you know it they find they're with child so your sage advice for me is to relax read a book before you
00:43:07go to bed take some deep breath and before you know it i'll be back to deliver your little one i'll make
00:43:15sure i try that
00:43:35every baby boy needs his own blanket don't you agree yes i do
00:43:45i'm gonna head to the shop for a few hours i'll be back in time for supper don't you ever take time
00:43:52off oh the good book says that a man who doesn't work doesn't deserve to eat i ain't got a lot of work
00:43:58to do we just thought you'd have more time off once you hired an apprentice and i do now i'm only two
00:44:02weeks behind instead of six
00:44:07you look lovely where are you headed off to joshua and i are having a picnic
00:44:11you enjoy yourself and please tell joshua that we said hello i will you be back in time for supper
00:44:17now no exceptions i will i promise bye everyone bye dear
00:44:25i love it the sea is everything it covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe its breath is pure and
00:44:43healthy it is an immense desert where man is never lonely for he feels life stirring on all sides
00:44:49the sea is the only embodiment of the supernatural and wonderful existence
00:44:53it is nothing but love and emotion this is the living infinite as one of your poets has said
00:45:00i've been reading for almost two hours you must be bored
00:45:03i don't think i can ever get bored listening to you talk
00:45:06you're just saying that no i'm not i swear it's just i'd like this captain nemo if you weren't holding
00:45:13his friends hostage all the time well i can't let them go and they might tell the world who he is
00:45:1720 000 leagues is an allegory it's about personal freedom nemo means nobody in latin and he's
00:45:23invisible to the world and wants to keep it that way you're brilliant you know that i am not
00:45:28lee you work harder than any man i know well i can't let the customers down
00:45:45besides it gives me thinking time anything that you'd like to share with your pastor
00:45:51this is a lot of rumbling around in my head like a marble sometimes it helps to speak it out loud
00:45:57talking to yourself only gets the answer you're looking for i just can't figure lulian out
00:46:04trying to be a good father to her our children grow up start spreading their wings the father has
00:46:11to be aware of that and try to grow with his child yeah belinda tolerates more than i do she's a mother
00:46:19the good lord gave them the patience of joe when it comes to raising their children
00:46:23he shortchanged fathers in that area yeah yeah
00:46:33i really wish you would get some rest i feel fine looks like someone may have been wrong about my
00:46:40condition perhaps so if things improved with lee he says he isn't bothered but i still sense that
00:46:50he's disappointed we can't have a baby well maybe you're just being overly sensitive and you think
00:46:55that he's disappointed maybe you know i'm starting to think that maybe she regrets marrying me now lee
00:47:03that is just plain nonsense she's proud as a peacock that she married you maybe have you spoken to her
00:47:10about it around about way of course she says i'm wrong still she seems kind of distant lately she's got
00:47:18something on her mind most women do when they get like that you know we're uh trying to have a baby
00:47:27so far no luck you have to have faith sometimes it's hard river talk to her about your feelings
00:47:40i'd best be getting home this is dave so give me an earful if i'm late for supper and myself included
00:47:45so do you miss your family i do
00:48:16my pa's a farmer back in pennsylvania he wanted more for 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 yeah my family's pretty close
00:48:31it's kind of strange though you know being out here all by myself i have three sisters and two
00:48:37brothers and not a moment of peace back at the boarding house i got nothing but quiet i know what you mean
00:48:42i mostly grew up in an orphanage until mom and pa adopted me when i was 10. i'd spent so long in a
00:48:48room with other kids i couldn't wait to have a room of my own now i miss having someone to talk to
00:48:53you yeah me do don't i so tell me something how'd you ever find a place like this anyway
00:49:05i stumbled across it by accident while riding one day that's so far off the main roads no one really
00:49:10comes out here so i brought some of my old stuff and now it's where i come to be alone well i can see
00:49:17why captain nemo had a cave near the ocean where he went to escape this reminds me of it
00:49:22well the timber still seems i wouldn't do that whoa
00:49:31not as sound as you might think you're probably right i think it's best we pack up
00:49:42well i'm happy to see you and mary are getting along
00:49:44hmm you know her fertility advice to me was to relax and read a book before bed
00:49:52did you try it of course not she's been doing this longer than we've been alive
00:49:57i can't believe you annie watson you've spent three years in medical school five years practicing
00:50:02medicine and you're gonna believe that woman's folk magic it's rubbish plain and simple we ask
00:50:08people to believe in things they don't understand and they do because they have trust and faith in
00:50:13us just like they have faith in the lord okay it is not the same thing and we're talking about mary
00:50:17here why do you have such a hard time believing in mary's ways okay mary is a lovely woman but you
00:50:24have to admit she's a little touch in the head she doesn't like me any more than i like her really
00:50:31the other day at the general store mary defended you to the ends of the earth what are you talking
00:50:35about the man with the anemic wife the one that you said was such a success story mary is the reason
00:50:41that he brought her back to you that's why lloyd mcqueen brought his wife back to me mary unloaded on
00:50:47him like a tornado spoke up for you and just plain made him cower
00:50:54come on
00:50:59thank you
00:50:59do you have any idea what time it is hi pa you're supposed to be home for supper joshua and
00:51:09i weren't that hungry so we decided to stay out a little while longer well it's well past supper
00:51:13that's more than a little while why are you so angry i thought i could trust your judgment but
00:51:18apparently i was wrong what's that supposed to mean it means you can't spend any more time with joshua
00:51:22quarrel until i say so go to school help your mother at the clinic and come straight home for
00:51:27how long as long as it takes me to trust you again that's completely unfair joshua's only two years

01:01:16but
01:01:34All right, whoa.
01:01:47Whoa.
01:01:55Whoa.
01:01:59You seen Lillian?
01:02:01No, why?
01:02:02Well, we thought she might be with you.
01:02:03She's been missing all afternoon.
01:02:05We got in an argument at the shop over Mr. Owens,
01:02:07and she stormed off.
01:02:08Said 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.
01:02:16She gets stuck in the countryside.
01:02:19I think I know where she is.
01:02:28Come on.
01:02:33It's worse this time.
01:02:41I feel like I could faint.
01:02:42Okay, okay.
01:02:43Let's get her inside.
01:02:45It looks as if the doctor was right about bed rest.
01:02:47Let's go.
01:02:48Let's go.
01:03:18How much further?
01:03:24It's just up ahead.
01:03:32How are you feeling?
01:03:34I'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.
01:03:48Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:03:54Whoa.
01:04:19Has it looked like this before?
01:04:21No, sir.
01:04:22Looks like there is a cave-in.
01:04:24She might be hurt.
01:04:27This is one of her lamps.
01:04:29Come on. Let's go.
01:04:30Lil!
01:04:32Lil!
01:04:40It's right up there.
01:04:42I see her.
01:04:46Lil!
01:04:49Lil.
01:04:51Give me a hand with this.
01:04:52One, two, three!
01:04:58You got it?
01:04:59You got it?
01:05:00Lil.
01:05:02Lil.
01:05:03Lil.
01:05:04Come on. Talk to me, pumpkin.
01:05:12Pa?
01:05:13Yeah.
01:05:14Not me, Ronnie.
01:05:17Just take it easy.
01:05:18Just stay down, alright?
01:05:20I'm gonna get you out of here.
01:05:21Okay.
01:05:22I'm gonna get you out of here.
01:05:23Okay.
01:05:24I'm gonna get you out of here.
01:05:26Okay.
01:05:27How's Lillian?
01:05:49A few cuts and bruises, but nothing that won't heal nicely.
01:05:55She's out for the night.
01:05:57Lee's sitting with her for a while.
01:05:59Give her a couple days. She'll be right as rain.
01:06:02At 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.
01:06:25Give it up if you want.
01:06:27But I'm telling you, the shine in your hair is not the mark of a barren woman.
01:06:34You don't really believe that, do you?
01:06:36It doesn't matter what I believe.
01:06:38It only matters what you believe.
01:06:39What do you mean?
01:06:40Medicine isn't the only thing that makes people feel better.
01:06:45It's believing that they can be better.
01:06:47I'm sorry I doubted you.
01:06:51You didn't deserve it.
01:06:54The 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.
01:07:05That's a promise.
01:07:06Late night tonight.
01:07:17Everyone's worn out.
01:07:19A little sleeping like a pup.
01:07:21You know, I think I might read a book before bed tonight.
01:07:33Really?
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.
01:07:42Hmm.
01:07:42Doc.
01:07:50I've been thinking about us trying to have a baby.
01:07:53Lil's changed our lives in so many wonderful ways.
01:07:57And 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?
01:08:05I'll be happy as long as I'm with you.
01:08:08Always have been.
01:08:09Always will be.
01:08:12Do you think my hair is shiny?
01:08:18Yeah.
01:08:19Yeah, I like the sunrise.
01:08:25I do love you, Mr. Owens.
01:08:28I love you too.
01:08:30Good night.
01:08:32Oh, all right.
01:08:33You can read your book now.
01:08:35Okay.
01:08:37All right.
01:08:40I'll just go to sleep.
01:08:42I'm sure I can't help you read it or no.
01:08:50All right.
01:09:01Shouldn't you be in bed?
01:09:02My ball and chain let me come downstairs.
01:09:06She has her mind set on going to the ice cream social.
01:09:09What if I find a shady, comfortable place to just sit and eat ice cream?
01:09:13You 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.
01:09:21I guess you've got the tie-breaking vote, Doc.
01:09:28I'm sorry, Annie.
01:09:29I'm going to have to side with the midwife.
01:09:31But I love ice cream.
01:09:32Then 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.
01:09:39Look, this 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.
01:09:47Don't you look beautiful?
01:10:02Except for this.
01:10:04I don't know.
01:10:04We'll even notice that.
01:10:06Even Joshua.
01:10:07Especially Joshua.
01:10:09Thanks for telling Joshua you can escort me to the social.
01:10:12You're still coming with your mother and I, right?
01:10:14I told him I wanted to walk in with my family and see him from afar.
01:10:17That's very romantic.
01:10:19Must be from all the books I read.
01:10:22Pa.
01:10:24I'm sorry for not making curfew the other night.
01:10:28I don't know you were just worried about me.
01:10:29Don'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.
01:10:47And then he stepped like this.
01:10:56There you go.
01:11:03Mr. Owens, Dr. Owens, would you like some lemonade?
01:11:05No, thank you.
01:11:06No, thank you, Joshua.
01:11:06Hey, partner.
01:11:15How's your ice cream?
01:11:17Doc Owens, can we talk?
01:11:19What?
01:11:20I believe 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.
01:11:31I'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.
01:11:37Well, 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...
01:11:47Mostly want to apologize for being stubborn.
01:11:51Thanks again, Doc.
01:11:52It 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.
01:12:00I hope you can forgive me.
01:12:02There's nothing to forgive.
01:12:05Thank you, Sue.
01:12:07Have a good day.
01:12:11Wow, look at that.
01:12:13That was a very nice thing you just did.
01:12:17You'd like some ice cream?
01:12:18I'd love some.
01:12:30I got Lee's telegrams.
01:12:38Where's Annie?
01:12:39The Lord brought you at the right time.
01:12:42Everyone's in town at a social.
01:12:43I need Belinda now.
01:12:45I want to see Annie.
01:12:47Get Belinda now.
01:12:49You look beautiful.
01:12:55Say, do you look handsome?
01:12:59I still can't believe it.
01:13:01Can't believe what?
01:13:03That I'm here with the smartest, most beautiful girl in town.
01:13:08It's very sweet of you to say, Joshua.
01:13:10Sure.
01:13:10Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:25Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:27Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:29Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:13:30Gracie, Shannon, you go on and get out of here.
01:13:32Lillian's got a boyfriend.
01:14:02Mary, thank God you're back.
01:14:10She's had a seizure.
01:14:12I've got her in bed.
01:14:14Pete, I'm the best way down here.
01:14:18There's nothing you can do up there.
01:14:28Dear Lord, please watch over Annie and her baby.
01:14:32Amen.
01:14:37Amen.
01:14:39Thank you, Lee.
01:14:40You're welcome.
01:14:42Come on, let's have a seat.
01:14:43Peter.
01:14:56Peter.
01:14:57He's waiting downstairs.
01:15:00Right.
01:15:03It is Eclipsia.
01:15:04I'm afraid so.
01:15:05Please save my baby.
01:15:11You know what you have to do.
01:15:22I'm going to close my eyes now.
01:15:23What did she mean?
01:15:38You know what has to be done.
01:15:40That baby has to come out if we're to save it.
01:15:43Even at the risk of her own life.
01:15:45That baby is ready.
01:15:47She was talking about a cesarean delivery, which I could do at the clinic, but under very crude conditions.
01:15:55Have you ever done one?
01:15:56I did one once at a hospital in Boston.
01:15:58But I had the proper equipment and staff.
01:16:02And there wasn't a clams handballed.
01:16:04Is 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.
01:16:26Scotch broom is a weed?
01:16:27A weed the good Lord made.
01:16:30His wonders to perceive.
01:16:32Doesn't work.
01:16:33Sure is the sunrise.
01:16:34A little of this, and we'll have our baby boy in no time.
01:16:44Is there anything else I can do?
01:16:47A glass of water.
01:16:48A glass of water.
01:17:14Our temperature is slightly raised.
01:17:25But our heartbeat ends up breathing our 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.
01:17:37We could lose Annie and the baby.
01:17:39Annie, do you have everything here that you need to do a cesarean delivery?
01:17:50How 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.
01:18:00Any news?
01:18:16Nothing yet.
01:18:18I'm going to have a cup of tea.
01:18:20I'm going to have a cup of tea.
01:18:20You're doing fine, Annie.
01:18:41Just keep breathing.
01:18:47Contractions closer together.
01:18:48We are going to introduce this baby boy to his new family.
01:18:54It's all right.
01:18:54It's all right.
01:18:55Keep breathing.
01:18:57Good.
01:18:58Good.
01:18:58Oh, my God!
01:19:22Congratulations, Uncle Needle!
01:19:29She's so beautiful.
01:19:32I've delivered hundreds of babies, but I've never seen one this perfect.
01:19:38And I'm not just saying that because she's my granddaughter.
01:19:41I thought she was a boy.
01:19:44She carried like a boy.
01:19:47We live and learn, don't we, Doc?
01:19:48We 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.
01:20:13Can I hold her?
01:20:16Come sit.
01:20:28Hey, you got that, fella?
01:20:49Brought you a present.
01:20:50A present?
01:20:52These are a few of my favorites.
01:20:54When I asked you for a few books, I thought you'd give me one or two.
01:20:59The 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?
01:21:12Sure is this one fine day.
01:21:14Come on, come on.
01:21:16Help me out of here.
01:21:17Joshua, when you're finished swooning over my daughter, I could use a little help in here?
01:21:31I'm coming.
01:21:34Lord, 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?
01:21:59I'm fine.
01:22:00Just a little stuffy inside.
01:22:02I'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.
01:22:09I think it's time we go home.
01:22:11I'm going to miss you so very much.
01:22:13And all the more reason for you to come visit us soon.
01:22:21What are you doing out of here?
01:22:22Oh, I was just getting some fresh air, talking to Annie.
01:22:25You're going to miss her, aren't you?
01:22:26Well, we have her for one more night.
01:22:31Let's enjoy her while we can.
01:22:32Thank you very much, thank you.
01:22:43It was my pleasure, Pete.
01:22:45And Belinda, I can never thank you enough.
01:22:48Well, I wish I could take all the credit, but I had some expert help.
01:22:51This has been the happiest time of my life.
01:22:56I'm so glad that I got to share this with you.
01:22:58Me too.
01:23:00All aboard, folks!
01:23:01We're burning daylight!
01:23:02I think it's about that time.
01:23:04Will you hold baby Lindy for me?
01:23:06Of course.
01:23:07I thought you'd do.
01:23:19Bye.
01:23:19Bye.
01:23:31There you go.
01:23:35Easy now.
01:23:35All right, take her easy there.
01:23:42Well, my friend, we had ourselves an adventure.
01:23:46How do I thank you, Mary?
01:23:48Well, you could start by finding me a husband.
01:23:53I learned a lot from you.
01:23:55And I from you.
01:23:57I may bring them into the world, but you keep them alive and kicking once they're here.
01:24:01Now, if you ever need a good midwife, you know where to find me.
01:24:06Oh, young man, I'm going to need a hand here.
01:24:24All right.
01:24:26Here we go.
01:24:26Oh, wait a minute.
01:24:27One, 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.
01:24:43Get out.
01:24:44What are you and Mary whispering to, Jenna?
01:25:00I was just telling her I'd be needing a good midwife.
01:25:03Are 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.
01:25:25Baby?
01:25:28We're going to have a baby.
01:25:29Lily and 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.
01:25:41You've got a job to do.
01:25:43Yes, ma'am.
01:25:47I've got patients to attend to and baby plans to make.
01:25:53Now, wait up.
01:25:55Now, wait up a bit.
01:25:56How far along are you?
01:26:01Man, I'm serious.
01:26:04Well, we've got to start talking about names, really.
01:26:06I mean, I like leave for a boy.
01:26:08Oh, you think it's going to be a boy?
01:26:09Or, you know, maybe Daphne for a girl.
01:26:12What do you think?
01:26:12Oh, that's very pretty.
01:26:14Come on, you want a little girl, don't you?
01:26:15What do you think?
01:26:17All right, I'm going to hold on.
01:26:18I'm getting the door for you.
01:26:19Oh, wait.
01:26:19My goodness.
01:26:20I'm getting the door for you.
01:26:21Stop it.
