00:01:40I'm losing my mouth.

00:01:42Cuz she bet you talking all day when she can't hear nothing.

00:01:46If she can't hear it, then how's she no talk coming out of my mouth?

00:01:51I think she's trying to talk.

00:01:54Now she's going crazy eating herself.

00:01:57Stop that.

00:01:58Helen, stop it.

00:02:00Helen, Helen!

00:02:02Stop it!

00:02:03Help! Help!

00:02:05Helen's trying to kill us! She's trying to kill us again!

00:02:13Helen?

00:02:16Helen?

00:02:17Helen! Stop it!

00:02:18Helen, stop it!

00:02:19Stop it!

00:02:21Okay, okay, give mother the scissors, Helen.

00:02:24Helen, give mother the scissors, Helen.

00:02:30Okay, okay.

00:02:41That's my pretty girl, huh?

00:02:44Well, father, I hope you got your story ready.

00:02:47What story is that?

00:02:48One you're gonna tell when the little savage kills somebody.

00:02:52Your Honor, I had no idea that poor deaf and dumb child could be so violent.

00:02:57Your sister is none of your concern, James.

00:03:00Don't you have some occasion you need to dress for?

00:03:03Why don't I ever meet any of your young friends, James?

00:03:08Well, how can I about people here?

00:03:09But surely your friends don't think that Helen is any reflection on you.

00:03:14Well, Helen is the real head of this house.

00:03:16She's probably just pretending she can't speak off here.

00:03:19So she don't have to answer to anyone.

00:03:21Your jealousy of that helpless child is intolerable.

00:03:25Auntie?

00:03:32Oh, well, here we are.

00:03:35Here's our father and Aunt Eve.

00:03:40I saw James.

00:03:42I hope he went boiling again.

00:03:45No, no.

00:03:46Oh, Katie, we all love Helen.

00:03:49But surely you must see what an effect she is having on your household.

00:03:55Why, James and Arthur can barely speak a civil word.

00:03:58And all your time is given over to the girl.

00:04:02You hardly ever have time for your new baby.

00:04:05James is right.

00:04:07You and Arthur must do something and soon.

00:04:11What can we do, Evelyn?

00:04:13The only thing left to do is to take Helen to an asylum.

00:04:17And Kate would never stand for it.

00:04:18Well, have you tried?

00:04:20We have taken her to every hospital in two states.

00:04:22No one holds out any hope.

00:04:23What about that Dr. Chisholm up in Baltimore?

00:04:26I read an article in your very own newspaper, Arthur.

00:04:30They say he has cured many cases of blindness that other doctors have given up on.

00:04:36Now, why not write to him?

00:04:38And have Kate's heart broken again?

00:04:40I'm prepared for my heart to break any number of times, Captain.

00:04:43I'll write to him myself if you like, Katie.

00:04:46There isn't going to be any cure.

00:04:48And the sooner we accept that fact, the better off we'll all be.

00:04:52I will never accept it, Captain.

00:04:55I can't.

00:04:57I'm going to the printers.

00:05:01Now, look, I can't turn my back for a moment.

00:05:04Arthur, Helen knows a lot more than you think about what goes on in this house.

00:05:08Nothing is solved by running all over the country every time some quack doctor gets his nail in the papers.

00:05:13Nothing is solved by running to the office either.

00:05:16Hmm.

00:05:18Kid, darling, what can anyone do?

00:05:21The kindest thing we could do would be to find a sanitarium in a beautiful spot where she would be

00:05:25taken care of.

00:05:26No. No, never.

00:05:28Oh, she tore off my buttons.

00:05:36It's eyes.

00:05:37She wants the doll.

00:05:39She wants the doll to have eyes.

00:05:42I'm sorry, Evelyn.

00:05:43Just tell me what it'll cost to have the buttons replaced.

00:05:45I know she does.

00:05:47Oh, don't mind about that.

00:05:49What are a couple of buttons if it makes Helen happy?

00:05:53I'll sew them on if you like.

00:05:55Is that what you're trying to do?

00:05:57Make Helen happy?

00:05:58Nothing makes her happy.

00:06:00Everything you give her only makes her worse.

00:06:02She can have these little things that make her happy.

00:06:05Oh, Helen!

00:06:06Look, Helen!

00:06:10Listen, you cannot give things like that, okay?

00:06:13Why?

00:06:14She can have the little things that make her happy.

00:06:17If you won't send her away...

00:06:18It's okay.

00:06:18...then we must find some way of confining us.

00:06:22I know.

00:06:22What?

00:06:22You want to lock away in the attic like some sort of mad woman?

00:06:26She wants to talk.

00:06:31I know.

00:06:39I know.

00:06:41All right.

00:06:42I'll write to Dr. Chisholm.

00:06:44Hello.

00:06:45Dr. Chisholm.

00:06:46Dr. Chisholm could do nothing for the girl and refer them to Dr. Alexander Graham Bell.

00:06:50So, as the girl is young and the parents are not willing to send her to us, I have put

00:06:55you up for the role of governess.

00:07:00Governess.

00:07:02Or nursemaid.

00:07:04We both knew you'd get rid of me one of these days.

00:07:07You've accomplished so much here.

00:07:09Why, when you first came to us, you couldn't even spell your name.

00:07:14Are your eyes still so painful?

00:07:16No, it's my ears, sir.

00:07:20Tell me about the child.

00:07:22Is she bright?

00:07:24Or dull?

00:07:27Can she be taught?

00:07:29She's given to tantrums, they say.

00:07:33So am I.

00:07:34Maybe you should warn the Kellers about me.

00:07:36I've told them nothing of your history except your qualifications for the job.

00:07:41Here is the money for your train ticket.

00:07:51And here is a gift from all of us, with our love.

00:07:55We're going to miss you.

00:08:01This is my last chance to counsel you, Annie.

00:08:04You lack tact and a talent to bend to others.

00:08:09You're hard to fool and harder to please.

00:08:13But all the same, we are proud of you.

00:08:31Well, we'll have to meet the train again.

00:08:33That's why I hope the girl is on this one.

00:08:34Oh, she will be.

00:08:37Uh, well, we'll see you at supper then.

00:08:49Here.

00:09:06Your mother's not here, child.

00:09:10I'm here, though.

00:09:12I'm your father.

00:09:14I'm your father.

00:09:19I used to swing you through the air.

00:09:21You weren't even two years of age yet.

00:09:25I wonder if you remember any of that.

00:09:28Or any of us.

00:09:30Here you are.

00:09:32Here's the piece of candy for you.

00:09:53Mm-hmm you want your mama don't you miss it captain Keller wouldn't like this episode, but what's one little

00:09:59candy gonna hurt?

00:10:04Oh

00:10:13Miss Sullivan yes, I'm James Keller. I had a brother Jimmy

00:10:20Are you Helen's half-brother you have a child yes, and it possibly come on miss Sullivan

00:10:28I'm so relieved we were beginning to get a little bit worried about you

00:10:31The man who sold me that ticket out to be tied to the tracks. I'm Catherine Keller. I'm Helen's mother

00:10:37You didn't bring Helen. I was hoping you would

00:10:39Well her father wanted to spend the afternoon with her actually they so enjoy their time together

00:10:45Okay, you should be ashamed

00:10:48Miss Sullivan you'll find it in the south and make up these little stories just to amuse each other. I

00:10:53hope you want mine

00:11:02How much can a blind and deaf child learn miss Sullivan? I don't know

00:11:07Does she communicate with you at all? Oh, well, I always know what she wants if that's what you mean

00:11:13No, you don't all anybody knows that if you give Helen a piece of candy she'll be quiet for a

00:11:18while

00:11:21Can you teach you to sit still miss Sullivan

00:11:24I'd have to teach your language first language if she doesn't know words

00:11:28How could you know why you want her to sit still miss Sullivan perhaps?

00:11:32You were misled as to Helen's condition. She can neither see nor hear

00:11:36But if it is her senses that are impaired and not her mind she must have language

00:11:42Language is more important to the mind than light is to the eye

00:11:47But how will you teach her if you can't talk to her any way I can?

00:11:52We are going to do everything that we can to help you. I

00:11:56Don't want you to think of us as strangers miss Annie strangers aren't so strange to me

00:12:00I've been around all my life

00:12:19Welcome to Ivy Green miss Sullivan. I trust you had a good journey. I had several. Thank you

00:12:25Where's Helen? Oh miss Annie?

00:12:27We've put you in the upstairs corner room now if there's any breeze at all this summer. You're going to

00:12:31feel it

00:12:32I'll take my suitcase. I have it miss Sullivan. No, please let me. I wouldn't think of it. I have

00:12:37something in it for Helen

00:12:41I

00:12:42Needn't be treated like a guest

00:12:45Now when may I see Helen well there she is that's Helen

00:19:44I

00:19:46I

00:19:47I

00:19:48I

00:19:49Suddenly. I'll get the ladder.

00:19:51What?

00:19:52I'll need a ladder. It won't take long.

00:19:54What are you talking about?

00:19:57Well, Helen locked her in the room and ran off with a key.

00:20:03And I suppose you were going to sit there and say nothing.

00:20:06You told me it was none of my business, Father.

00:20:08I was just trying to respect your wishes.

00:20:20Miss Sullivan, are you in there?

00:20:23Yes, sir. I'm in here.

00:20:24Isn't there a key on your side?

00:20:29No, sir. There's no key, sir.

00:20:37Put that ladder away, Jimmy.

00:20:40Whatever you say, Father.

00:20:43Captain, we can't keep Miss Annie locked up till we find the key.

00:20:49James!

00:20:51Bring the ladder back!

00:20:54Whatever you say, Father.

00:21:07I hired her to solve problems, not create them.

00:21:12Footage, Jimmy.

00:21:13Thank you, Percy.

00:21:20Miss Sullivan!

00:21:23Yes, Captain Keller?

00:21:24I hope this is not a sample of what we can expect of you.

00:21:28Come out and sit on my shoulder.

00:21:43I'm perfectly capable of going down a ladder by myself.

00:21:45Do as I say, Miss Sullivan.

00:22:01Very chivalrous of you.

00:22:02No, this is not chivalry.

00:22:03This is practicality.

00:22:05You're no good to us trapped in a room.

00:22:17I'm not in the house ten minutes.

00:22:19Honestly, I don't see how you managed it.

00:22:22I'll look for the key, sir.

00:22:24Just don't look in any rooms that can be locked.

00:22:28All right, everyone, excitement's over.

00:22:32I better leave the LADD, y'all.

00:23:16Oh, you little devil.

00:23:21If you think you can get rid of me that easily, you're wrong.

00:23:30I have nothing better to do.

00:23:32And nowhere else to go.

00:23:34To the best of my knowledge, no one in this house has ever tried to control the girl.

00:23:43But how can I discipline her without breaking her spirit?

00:23:50But if she won't obey me...

00:23:53Oh!

00:23:54Oh!

00:23:55Oh!

00:24:09Ink.

00:24:10It has a name.

00:24:16Pen.

00:24:19Pen.

00:24:32Oh!

00:24:34Oh!

00:24:47Oh!

00:24:50bad girl.

00:24:52No, never you mind, Miss Ellie.

00:24:54It's not the first.

00:24:56No, Helen.

00:25:02The captain thinks that your spelling

00:25:04everything that Helen does

00:25:05is like spelling to a fence post.

00:25:09You talk to the baby, don't you?

00:25:11Does she understand

00:25:12what you mean? Not yet, but she will

00:25:14someday, if she hears enough words.

00:25:17I'm letting Helen

00:25:18hear the words.

00:25:23How long

00:25:24will it take? A million

00:25:26words, maybe.

00:25:28Pen.

00:25:41Did you see that?

00:25:42I spelled pen,

00:25:44she spelled cake.

00:25:48She wants to see if I can tell

00:25:50the difference.

00:25:52There is nothing impaired in that head,

00:25:54Mrs. Keller.

00:25:55Helen is smart

00:25:56and angry.

00:25:57I can use that.

00:25:59Can you teach me those letters?

00:26:01I'll start tomorrow.

00:26:03If both of us are spelling to her,

00:26:05that makes only about

00:26:06half a million words each.

00:26:08Oh, Helen.

00:26:13Helen.

00:26:16Helen.

00:26:22Why did she get a reward

00:26:24for stabbing me?

00:26:26I-I-I don't know.

00:26:28I'm-I'm sorry.

00:26:33Miss Sullivan,

00:26:34breakfast is ready.

00:26:36Shall I get the ladder?

00:26:38That's enough, Jimmy.

00:26:48Oh, good morning, Miss Annie.

00:26:50Good morning.

00:26:51Good morning.

00:26:54I hope you've settled in comfortably,

00:26:56Miss Sullivan.

00:26:57Thank you, Captain.

00:26:58I have.

00:27:01Please help yourself.

00:27:03Miss Annie,

00:27:04if there is ever anything that you need,

00:27:06please let us know.

00:27:18Tobacco price is up, Father.

00:27:20We should earn a nice profit this year

00:27:22for a change.

00:27:26Used to be a man

00:27:27who would make a good living

00:27:28running a farm.

00:27:30Well, perhaps if you'd leave

00:27:31your pet newspaper

00:27:32and come show me my business,

00:27:33we could make some real money.

00:27:35Not in front of Miss Sullivan.

00:27:36Why not in front of Miss Sullivan?

00:27:42Miss Annie,

00:27:44uh, Helen is used to

00:27:44helping herself from our plates.

00:27:46I'm afraid I'm not used to it.

00:27:48No, of course not.

00:27:49Oh!

00:27:50Vianney, please bring

00:27:50Miss Sullivan another plate.

00:27:52There's nothing wrong

00:27:52with my plate, Captain,

00:27:53only that Helen's hands

00:27:54don't belong in it.

00:27:55One plate is hardly worth

00:27:57spoiling our breakfast over.

00:27:58You see,

00:27:58she's just gonna keep trying

00:27:59until she gets away.

00:28:02I must insist

00:28:03that you let the girl go.

00:28:17Oh!

00:28:20Oh, look,

00:28:20now she's hurt herself.

00:28:21No, she hasn't.

00:28:22I know a tantrum

00:28:23when I see one.

00:28:24And a badly spoiled child.

00:28:26Miss Sullivan!

00:28:29Please show some pity.

00:28:31For this kind of behavior.

00:28:32Pity's the one thing

00:28:33she doesn't do.

00:28:35The whole house

00:28:35waits on her hand and foot.

00:28:37Here, here.

00:28:38You stay out of this.

00:28:39Letting Helen have her own way,

00:28:41it's really such a small thing.

00:28:42Small?

00:28:43It seems you've all decided

00:28:44it's easier to feel sorry for Helen

00:28:46than to teach her

00:28:48how to behave.

00:28:49Well, I've not seen

00:28:50that you've taught her

00:28:51anything yet, Miss Sullivan.

00:28:52Quite right, Captain.

00:28:53Well observed.

00:28:54I'll start right now

00:28:55if you leave the room.

00:28:58Leave the room?

00:28:59Yes.

00:29:00Please, Captain.

00:29:01Right now,

00:29:01if you leave the room.

00:29:02Miss Sullivan!

00:29:03If you're not willing

00:29:04to stand up to one tantrum,

00:29:06I cannot teach her anything.

00:29:09Mrs. Campbell,

00:29:10you asked if there was

00:29:11anything I needed.

00:29:12Yes, but I...

00:29:13I need to be alone with Helen.

00:29:17Right now.

00:29:18Miss Sullivan?

00:29:19Oh, Captain.

00:29:20It's...

00:29:24James?

00:29:27Captain, may I speak

00:29:28with you outside?

00:29:44Give us a moment, please.

00:29:59This is absurd.

00:30:01Arthur, I am sure

00:30:02that she is only trying

00:30:03to do what is best.

00:30:05I will not have my house

00:30:06turned into a circus.

00:30:16Unless there is a change

00:30:17in attitude,

00:30:17Miss Sullivan is dismissed.

00:30:19Arthur,

00:30:19and then what hope

00:30:20do we have for Helen?

00:30:22No less than we had before,

00:30:23and then perhaps

00:30:24we can regain some quiet.

00:30:34Come on.

00:30:37Don't leave may I

00:30:42be lit.

00:31:02Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:31:27Oh, no, no, no.

00:31:44Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:32:14Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:32:39Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:33:14Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:34:04Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:34:33Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:34:38Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:35:09Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

00:35:20no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:35:27Mmm!

00:35:59Oh, my God.

00:36:18Good.

00:36:35What you want me to do, Miss Kate?

00:36:37It's noontime, and the breakfast dishes ain't been cleared.

00:36:43Push me.

00:36:54Push me.

00:36:55Push me.

00:37:15Helen ate from her own plate, with a spoon, all by herself.

00:37:23And she folded her napkin.

00:37:26The room's a wreck, but she folded her napkin.

00:37:32I'll be in my room, Mrs. Keller.

00:37:40Shh.

00:37:47Don't be long now, Miss Annie. Lunch gonna be ready right away.

00:37:51Mm-hmm.

00:37:53Mm-hmm.

00:37:53I have to hold it for the napkin.

00:37:57I love you.

00:38:05Oh.

00:38:09What are you reading?

00:38:11a dr howe's account of his patient laura bridgeman she was deaf blind and mute from the age of two

00:38:19did he succeed with her he did it's possible with patients i suppose

00:38:27something they did not give me a certificate for at purgans after this morning's lesson

00:38:34the captain wants me to dismiss you but i am going to insist that you remain

00:38:39thank you where is your family miss annie my brother jimmy was the last i had he died 12 years

00:38:47ago i'm sorry i i tried to protect him i failed it's no use trying to protect or speak for

00:38:56other

00:38:56people not really the only hope is to teach them to do it for themselves that's what i'm trying to

00:39:05do with helen what you demand of her now is all she'll ever be

00:39:23step

00:39:25step

00:39:27brain

00:39:40captain

00:40:23And if what happened this morning wasn't enough, Helen can't stand to be near her.

00:40:29Things have gotten worse, and I want you to give her notice.

00:40:32No.

00:40:36Well, if you won't, I must.

00:40:39Good evening, Captain.

00:40:40Mrs. Keller.

00:40:44Miss Sullivan.

00:40:46I find that I am not satisfied with this.

00:40:51That is, this arrangement.

00:40:54Will you please take off your glasses?

00:40:56I find it very difficult to speak to you with them on.

00:40:59Of course.

00:41:05If you must, keep them on.

00:41:07Now, Miss Sullivan.

00:41:08Please tell me, Captain.

00:41:09Is the little house in the grove of trees being used for anything?

00:41:12The garden house?

00:41:13This is just what I am talking about.

00:41:17Miss Sullivan.

00:41:18If you expect to stay on here, there must be a change in your manner.

00:41:24And you must convince me that there is the slightest hope of teaching a child who flees from you like

00:41:28the plague.

00:41:29You could show some sympathy.

00:41:31You're absolutely right, Captain.

00:41:34There is not the slightest possibility of teaching a child who runs away from me.

00:41:37It is hopeless here.

00:41:40And the sooner we realize that, the sooner we can get to a solution.

00:41:43It is not hopeless.

00:41:46Helen could talk by the time she was ten months old.

00:41:50Before this illness, she was such a good child.

00:41:53Yes, she was an extraordinary child.

00:41:55I believe that.

00:41:57But she's not that child anymore.

00:42:00I've seen pets behave better than she does, and it's your pity that's the cause of it.

00:42:04I beg your pardon.

00:42:06I'm afraid your love for Helen is a greater handicap to her than her blindness or her deafness.

00:42:13Annie, before you came, we spoke of putting Helen in an asylum.

00:42:18Please don't give up.

00:42:20Obviously, Miss Sullivan thinks it's hopeless.

00:42:23Here!

00:42:24It's hopeless here!

00:42:26I'm only just beginning.

00:42:30Please let me show you.

00:42:33Please follow me.

00:42:54I believe I can only make progress with Helen if I have complete charge of her.

00:42:59But you already have that.

00:43:01No, I mean day and night.

00:43:03She must depend on me.

00:43:06For what?

00:43:06For everything.

00:43:07Her food, her clothes, her playtime, her sweets.

00:43:10All of these things are tools that I can use to reach her.

00:43:15And how do you propose to do that when she runs away from you?

00:43:18If she can run to you, I have no hope.

00:43:21Which is why I must live with her somewhere else.

00:43:26You can bring Helen here after a long carriage ride.

00:43:29She won't know where she is.

00:43:30And you can still see her every day, provided she does not know you're here.

00:43:36How long would you keep her?

00:43:38As long as it takes.

00:43:40I know this is the way.

00:43:43And, Captain, I cannot be rude to you if you're not around to interfere with me.

00:43:51Am I to understand that if I say no to this, you will abandon your charge to an asylum?

00:43:57An asylum is no place for Helen, Captain.

00:44:00Believe me, I know.

00:44:03I grew up in an asylum.

00:44:07In the state poorhouse, my brother and I, until it took his life.

00:44:13Our playroom was the dead house where they kept the bodies until they could dig the graves.

00:44:18It made me strong.

00:44:20But Helen is strong enough already.

00:44:26Please give me this chance.

00:44:31Give her this chance to save herself.

00:44:34Miss Sullivan, do you like this child?

00:44:38Do you?

00:44:43Captain.

00:44:47With your permission.

00:45:00I'll give you two weeks.

00:45:03You have two weeks to get the child to tolerate you.

00:45:06Percy could stay here.

00:45:08He could run errands for you.

00:45:10Two weeks is not enough.

00:45:11Two weeks is what I am offering.

00:45:18I'll take it.

00:45:34Where would you like your suitcase, Miss Sullivan?

00:45:37Oh, anywhere is fine.

00:45:41How do you expect a winner over in this place?

00:45:43You plan to tie her to the chair?

00:45:50How is it you have no pity for Helen?

00:45:52To have pity for someone is a waste of energy.

00:45:58Feeling sorry for ourselves is even worse.

00:46:05Well, I hope you win, Miss Sullivan.

00:46:33Well, we rode in the country for two hours.

00:46:36Well, she knows she could be in another town.

00:46:38Bring her inside, please.

00:46:40Please.

00:46:58All right.

00:47:08Mr.

00:47:10Mr.

00:47:42Oh, she wants me.

00:47:43She can have you back in two weeks.

00:47:51Miss Annie, please take good care of her.

00:47:54I will.

00:48:32I will.

00:48:35I will.

00:48:37I will.

00:48:39Oh.

00:48:47Oh, my God.

00:49:11Oh, my God.

00:49:43Oh, my God.

00:49:51Try again.

00:49:52Try again.

00:49:53Oh, my God.

00:50:06Let me go.

00:50:07She gonna pinch me.

00:50:18I think she's trying to talk.

00:50:20She can talk.

00:50:22But she's got to use her hands.

00:50:23Here, let me show you.

00:50:27She's mad at me now, so she doesn't want to play, but she knows a lot of letters.

00:50:30C.

00:50:32A.

00:50:34K.

00:50:37E.

00:50:40Cake.

00:50:42C.

00:50:45A.

00:50:46K.

00:50:49E.

00:50:58She spends cake, she gets cake.

00:51:02She doesn't know what the word means yet.

00:51:05But she will.

00:51:08Percy?

00:51:16We don't need her.

00:51:18How would you like to learn when she doesn't know?

00:51:19M.

00:51:20Is easy.

00:51:22I.

00:51:22Is even easier.

00:51:23Just the pinky up.

00:51:25M.

00:51:28K.

00:51:31M.

00:51:31Why should I talk to you?

00:51:32I'm teaching Percy.

00:51:34M.

00:51:35I.

00:51:37L.

00:51:38K.

00:51:44No.

00:51:45I'm teaching Percy.

00:51:48Oh, you're jealous.

00:52:05M.

00:52:06I.

00:52:07L.

00:52:08M.

00:52:08K.

00:52:19At least I'm back to where I can touch you.

00:52:32You can go back to bed, Percy.

00:52:49Thanks for having me.

00:52:52I'll

00:52:53be there. My

00:53:02face is really nice.

00:53:10I never thought that life could be so quiet.

00:53:25I miss her, too.

00:53:28Push, little baby, don't say a word.

00:53:33I was going by in the mockingbird.

00:53:38If that mockingbird don't sing,

00:53:42Mum's going to buy you a diamond ring.

00:53:47Annie.

00:53:50I can't sleep, Annie.

00:53:52There are rats in my room.

00:53:55Can't we live somewhere else?

00:53:58I don't have anywhere else, Jimmy.

00:54:00Please, can I sleep with you?

00:54:02Just for tonight.

00:54:12A little baby, don't say a word.

00:54:17Mum's going to buy you a mockingbird.

00:54:21And if that mockingbird doesn't sing,

00:54:26Mum's going to buy you a diamond ring.

00:54:31Flower.

00:54:55Flower.

00:55:02Leaf.

00:55:08Water.

00:55:17No, not apple.

00:55:23Water.

00:55:32Why is it so hard to understand?

00:55:45We were just about to have lunch.

00:55:47How is she, Miss Annie?

00:55:50Fine.

00:55:51I told her that stitch yesterday.

00:55:53No, I can't get her to stop.

00:55:57It's so quiet in the house without her.

00:56:00Well, when the captain and James on bickering, that is.

00:56:03I notice they don't get along.

00:56:05Oh, well, they used to when James' mother was alive.

00:56:09But then Helen came along and, well, she takes up so much of our attention.

00:56:28Soup.

00:56:36Oh, such a lady.

00:56:38She'd rather starve than eat without a spoon.

00:56:40You have taught her so much in a week and a half.

00:56:44It's not enough.

00:56:46Obedience is not enough.

00:56:47She knows so many words.

00:56:51If only she knew what they meant.

00:56:53And how will she learn?

00:56:55The way a bird learns to use its wings, it has to come.

00:56:58But how, Miss Annie?

00:57:00I need more time.

00:57:10Alone with her?

00:57:12Yes.

00:57:12Why not?

00:57:15Because I can't.

00:57:16Spell it.

00:57:17If she ever learns, you're the first person she's going to want to talk to.

00:57:26She?

00:57:30She needs me.

00:57:35She needs me, too.

00:57:40No.

00:57:42You have three days, Annie.

00:57:45That's all you have.

00:58:00No.

00:58:06E-G-G.

00:58:08Egg.

00:58:10The word is the thing.

00:58:13It has a name.

00:58:28Bird.

00:58:34The bird is coming out of its shell, Helen.

00:58:38You.

00:58:39You come out, too.

00:58:56Well, Francis, I believe we're on something here.

00:59:02Father?

00:59:04Hello, Francis.

00:59:06James.

00:59:06Yeah.

00:59:10Thought I'd come take a look around.

00:59:14Well, we had an idea last year and tried something.

00:59:17And it looks like 22 inches between the plants gives us about twice a yield.

00:59:23We had that blue mold pretty bad last year, sir.

00:59:27Well, we think it's carrying over the winter and the roots.

00:59:29So we're going to try to get all the roots and stalks out of the ground after the holler.

00:59:33Well, if the roots are gone, if we get a bad rain, we stand to lose a whole layer of

00:59:37topsoil.

00:59:38Well, I was thinking of that, too.

00:59:42Let's plant some low grass for the winter.

00:59:45Look for some, would you, Francis?

00:59:46Mm-hmm.

00:59:56Did you need something, Father?

00:59:58I think I have it, Jimmy.

01:00:03Uh, sorry to interrupt.

01:00:10Horse.

01:00:26Horse.

01:00:30It's...

01:00:31...apple.

01:01:11How I have waited for this day.

01:01:14I only hope we won't be disappointed.

01:01:17Helen doesn't ever disappoint you, Father.

01:01:31Why are you jealous, James?

01:01:33I'm not jealous.

01:01:36I'm envious.

01:01:39It's not only Helen who needs to learn how to talk.

01:01:45Things will be very different here if Helen is better.

01:01:49I know.

01:01:53Who will I blame then for my unhappiness?

01:01:56Yes.

01:01:56If only there was someone to help me.

01:02:02I feel I need a teacher as much as Helen does.

01:02:17Captain!

01:02:18Uh, Miss Sullivan, I've brought Helen a playmate.

01:02:21It's a kind of graduation present.

01:02:25Please, wait outside, Captain.

01:02:41Dog.

01:02:48Well, Miss Sullivan, two weeks up.

01:02:51Not until five o'clock.

01:02:53Oh, what difference can half a day make?

01:02:55You don't know how eager we are to have her back.

01:02:58I do know.

01:02:59It's my main concern.

01:03:02Well, you've done wonders for her.

01:03:05And you've done us a great service.

01:03:06I've actually missed her.

01:03:09I owe that debt to you.

01:03:11Pay it to Helen, Captain.

01:03:13Give her another week.

01:03:15Well, look what you've done for her already.

01:03:17She's well-behaved.

01:03:18She seems quite contented.

01:03:20Certainly cleaner.

01:03:21She's cleaner?

01:03:22Is that what you care about?

01:03:25She's learning to talk, Captain.

01:03:27The words are in her fingers already.

01:03:30I can't risk her.

01:03:31I'm learning it when she goes back to her old life in the house.

01:03:35Oh, look.

01:03:38What is she spilling?

01:03:40Water.

01:03:42Miss Sullivan,

01:03:45that dog doesn't know what words are any more than she does.

01:03:49The dog's happy enough, though.

01:03:51God may not have meant for Helen to speak, Miss Sullivan.

01:03:54I mean her too, Captain.

01:03:57Give her half a week.

01:04:02You have until five o'clock.

01:04:05Kate cannot bear to be separated from her for another night.

01:04:15Where is she?

01:04:18Your Miss Sullivan insisted on keeping her till five o'clock.

01:04:26No.

01:04:29No.

01:04:29Not...

01:04:30Water.

01:04:35Dog.

01:04:40Dog.

01:04:41Dog.

01:04:52This...

01:04:54This...

01:04:55This is water.

01:05:12How do I make her understand?

01:05:16How do I tell you?

01:05:22I don't know anything.

01:05:31They're satisfied.

01:05:35I'll give them back their child and their dog.

01:05:40Both housebroken.

01:05:43Everyone's satisfied.

01:05:46Everyone but me.

01:05:49And you.

01:05:51Reach!

01:05:56Reach!

01:06:06Oh, what I wanted to give you, Helen.

01:06:10Everything in the earth.

01:06:12Everything that we are.

01:06:13What we dream of.

01:06:14What we leave behind.

01:06:17What we think and feel and know and share.

01:06:20It's all in words.

01:06:24Oh, if I could give you one word.

01:06:29One word, I could give you everything.

01:06:32Oh.

01:06:39Wool.

01:06:41It means this.

01:06:55Chair.

01:07:01Nup-kin.

01:07:08Dress.

01:07:22Face.

01:07:32Lock off.

01:07:35Thank you my tooth.

01:07:46Yes, I helped.

01:08:02Tears.

01:08:22Let's bring her home.

01:08:36Come on.

01:08:38Let's put your things away.

01:08:44Come away.

01:08:49You are going home.

01:08:54Helen is going home.

01:09:02That's right.

01:09:03Put your things away.

01:09:10How is she?

01:09:13Please give me more time.

01:09:15I can't.

01:09:17Helen?

01:09:18Helen.

01:09:19Helen.

01:09:22Helen.

01:09:27Helen.

01:09:35Helen.

01:09:41Helen.

01:09:42Motherfucker.

01:10:23Annie! I'm so hot, Annie! Can you bring me some water? Annie!

01:10:29I have to go to him. He's got no one on the earth but me.

01:10:32Do you think I want an epidemic on my hands?

01:10:35Annie!

01:10:35You can't go!

01:10:37Jimmy!

01:10:38Jimmy!

01:10:38You've been doing the best that we can.

01:10:42I'll come and get you when I can.

01:10:44Jimmy!

01:10:45Annie!

01:10:46What should I do with me?

01:10:49Annie!

01:10:50Jimmy!

01:10:52Annie!

01:10:54Annie!

01:10:57Come on!

01:11:00Mom!

01:11:14Annie!

01:11:32I promise!

01:11:34Why don't you go to an in- us?

01:11:38Well, I didn't come to keep you company.

01:11:39I came to keep you from getting lost in the dark.

01:11:42Maybe that's just what I was looking to do.

01:11:44Are you feeling sorry for yourself, Ms. Sullivan?

01:11:48Just this once.

01:11:50Yes.

01:11:57My father has great respect for you.

01:12:00That's not easily earned.

01:12:03He fought at Vic's bug.

01:12:05He edits the newspaper.

01:12:08And he's always daring you to measure up.

01:12:12If you have any advice for me, I wouldn't mind hearing it.

01:12:15I never really had a father, so I'm the last person to ask.

01:12:21But you've got to stand up to the world.

01:12:23That's all I know.

01:12:25Well, what if he's the world?

01:12:27Then you can just look around, James,

01:12:29and see how much bigger it really is.

01:12:32He's a man, James.

01:12:34That's all.

01:12:35So are you.

01:12:47And Evelyn, well, come in, come in.

01:12:50It is so good to see you.

01:12:52You have to come and see our Helen now.

01:13:12The sweet child.

01:13:15Miss Sullivan must be a wonder.

01:13:19Miss Sullivan.

01:13:21Helen, I've brought you your first month's salary.

01:13:28You've done quite a job.

01:13:30You've taken a wild thing and given us back a child.

01:13:33I taught Helen one thing.

01:13:36No.

01:13:37Don't do this.

01:13:38Don't do that.

01:13:39I wanted to teach her, yes.

01:13:42Well, you'll have all the time you need now.

01:13:45Will you help me, Captain?

01:13:47Yes.

01:13:48How?

01:13:49Don't undo what I've done.

01:13:52Helen, the world is not an easy place for anyone.

01:13:55To give Helen her way in everything is a lie to her.

01:13:58You've got to stand between her and that lie.

01:14:02Don't give in.

01:14:04Well, we're certainly going to try.

01:14:07I used to wonder how I would earn a living.

01:14:12Now the question is, can I survive it?

01:14:14I'll see you at supper.

01:14:24Oh, we glad to have you back, Miss Eve.

01:14:28Please.

01:14:50What, Helen?

01:14:52What?

01:14:53Oh, yes.

01:14:55Keys.

01:14:56Yes.

01:14:56I will keep the keys.

01:14:58I think we've had enough of locked doors around here.

01:15:02Here they are.

01:15:05That's right.

01:15:09And Jacob was left alone for the breaking of day.

01:15:15And he wrestled with an angel.

01:15:19An angel said, let me go before the day breaks.

01:15:23Jacob said, I will not let you go until you bless me.

01:15:28Amen.

01:15:30Amen.

01:15:33That's a very strange grace, James.

01:15:36I thought it was a very fitting grace, considering the circumstances.

01:15:40So you're an expert now on the Bible and tobacco.

01:15:43Is that right, James?

01:15:47Pickles, Aunt F?

01:15:48I should say so.

01:15:50You know my opinion of your pickles.

01:15:52Well, this is the last them, I'm afraid.

01:15:55I didn't put up nearly enough last summer,

01:15:56but this year I intend to.

01:16:00Reverend Tompkins stopped by the office today to complain about his weevils.

01:16:04I told him...

01:16:07Did you tell him to...?

01:16:08I told him to talk to you about his weevils, James.

01:16:11I think it's marvelous what a successful farmer you have turned out to be, James.

01:16:25No.

01:16:28No, please.

01:16:29I have hardly had an hour with her.

01:16:33Captain?

01:16:35Katie?

01:16:37We, uh...

01:16:37We had a little talk.

01:16:39Miss Sullivan feels that if we indulge Helen in...

01:16:42But what's the child done?

01:16:43She's learned not to throw things on the floor and kick.

01:16:46Oh, but it's only a napkin.

01:16:47It's not as if it was something breakable.

01:16:49Mrs. Cass, either give Helen to me, or you keep her from kicking.

01:16:52Please.

01:16:53What do you want me to do?

01:16:54Let me take her from the table.

01:16:56But this is her first evening bed.

01:16:58Once.

01:16:59It hurts so much, Miss Annie.

01:17:01I have made all of Helen's favorite foods.

01:17:03She's testing you.

01:17:04She's testing you.

01:17:05She's testing you.

01:17:05I know.

01:17:07Well, she's not kicking now.

01:17:09This is what I was worried about.

01:17:11Is this what you promised me less than an hour ago?

01:17:21Give in to her, then.

01:17:23She's the one who will pay for it.

01:17:28Please.

01:17:29Pass me more of Helen's favorite foods.

01:17:40Take them, Miss Annie.

01:17:46There.

01:17:47Take her.

01:17:53No.

01:17:54I won't have this.

01:17:57I don't see that we need to send her from the table.

01:18:00Let me hold Helen to what she's learned, and she will go on learning.

01:18:04Take her out of my hands, and it all comes apart.

01:18:07She is the guest of honor.

01:18:11Bring her plate back.

01:18:12If she were a scene child, you would not stand for this.

01:18:15Well, she's not.

01:18:16I think some allowances are called for.

01:18:20Bring her plate back.

01:18:40There.

01:18:49Now, let's start all over.

01:19:06No.

01:19:08No.

01:19:11No.

01:19:13No.

01:19:15No.

01:19:16No.

01:19:17No.

01:19:20Don't get her.

01:19:21What are you doing?

01:19:21I treat Helen like a scene child because I ask her to see.

01:19:25I expect her to see.

01:19:27Where are you taking her?

01:19:29To make her refill this picture.

01:19:42You let her speak to you like that, Arthur.

01:19:47No.

01:19:48I don't.

01:19:49Let her go.

01:19:51What?

01:19:53Let her go.

01:19:54She's right.

01:19:55She's right and Kate's right.

01:19:57If you drop Ms. Sullivan away from here, then we're lost.

01:20:01No.

01:20:03Helen is lost.

01:20:04Captain, please.

01:20:22Jimmy.

01:20:43Do you know where we are?

01:20:45Do you recognize this place?

01:20:51Pump.

01:21:01No.

01:21:03Your mother's.

01:21:06Not.

01:21:07Here.

01:21:09Ah.

01:21:39William.
