A MOUNTAIN HAS NO
NEED FOR PEOPLE,

BUT PEOPLE DO NEED MOUNTAINS.

WE GO TO THEM FOR THEIR BEAUTY,

FOR THE EXHILARATION OF STANDING
CLOSER TO MYSTERIOUS SKIES,

FOR THE FEELING OF TRIUMPH

THAT COMES FROM HAVING
LABORED TO REACH A SUMMIT.

AND I REMEMBER
A DAY IN THE 1930s

WHEN I WENT TO WALTON'S MOUNTAIN

IN SEARCH OF MANHOOD.

JOHN-BOY!

WHAT AM I GONNA DO FOR EGGS IF
YOU MURDER MY BEST-LAYIN' HEN?

JUST PRACTICIN', MAMA.

JUST PRACTICIN'.

I FIGURED IT'S TIME I STARTED
DOIN' MY SHARE OF THE PROVIDING.

YOUR DADDY PROVIDES
MEAT FOR THE TABLE.

WHY DON'T YOU
WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR?

MAMA, OTHER BOYS
YOUNGER THAN ME GO HUNT.

ONE WALTON MAN BANGIN'
AWAY AT TURKEYS IS PLENTY.

LET THE OTHER ONE
TEND TO THINGS AT HOME.

MAMA, I'M GOIN' ON
THAT HUNT TOMORROW,

AND I'M GOIN' TO BRING ME BACK

THE BIGGEST TURKEY
GOBBLER ON THAT MOUNTAIN.

WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH YOU, GIRL?

YOU COULD'VE MADE ME PULL THE
TRIGGER AND KILL MAMA'S BEST LAYER.

THAT OLD HEN'S SO TOUGH A
BULLET WOULDN'T CREASE HER.

LET ME SHOW YOU
WHAT A CRACK SHOT I AM.

THAT THING'S LOADED.

POW, POW, POW,
TURKEY ON THE TABLE!

COME ON, GIVE IT BACK BEFORE
IT GOES OFF AND KILLS SOMEBODY.

JOHN-BOY, DON'T SHOOT ANY
BABY TURKEYS TOMORROW, OK?

DON'T WORRY, ELIZABETH,
THAT GUN HE'S USING IS SO OLD,

HE'S NOT LIKELY TO HIT A TURKEY
OF ANY SIZE, EXCEPT BY ACCIDENT.

HEY, JASON.

HEY, SPROCKET.

DADDY, WHEN YOU GONNA
QUIT CALLIN' ME SPROCKET?

RECKLESS, GET OFF.

WHAT DO YOU WANT
ME TO CALL YOU, SON?

HOW'D THAT GET STARTED
IN THE FIRST PLACE?

CHARLIE SNEED NAMED YOU THAT
WHEN YOU WERE JUST A WEE BABY.

THE NAME KIND OF STUCK.

WELL, I'M NOT A
WEE BABY ANYMORE.

NO, SON. I GUESS YOU'RE
LONG GONE FROM THAT.

GOOD JOB.

LITTLE LINT STILL DOWN
THERE. BETTER GO AFTER IT.

YEAH.

DADDY. HMM?

WHEN YOU SHOOT A TURKEY,
DOES HE DIE RIGHT AWAY?

IF YOUR AIM IS TRUE.
RIGHT, JOHN-BOY?

YOUR BROTHER'S GONNA
BE A GOOD HUNTER, JASON.

AND NEXT YEAR
YOU CAN GO WITH US.

OK?

YES, SIR.

HI, MR. GODSEY.

HI, MR. GODSEY.

WELL, LOOKIT HERE.

MORE CUSTOMERS
THAN I'VE SEEN ALL DAY.

I'M THE CUSTOMER.

I WANT TO MAKE ANOTHER PAYMENT.

HI, MR. GODSEY!

HI, ELIZABETH.

ANOTHER PAYMENT?

OH, YOU SURE HAVE
BEEN BUSY, HAVEN'T YOU?

17 CENTS.

HOW DID YOU EARN IT THIS TIME?

WELL, I SOLD 3 COMBS OF
WILD HONEY FOR 5 CENTS APIECE

AND GOT A 2-CENT TIP
FROM MISS MAMIE BALDWIN.

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?

17 CENTS. OK.

THAT'S 17, PLUS THE $2.63
THAT YOU'VE ALREADY PAID IN.

THAT COMES TO $2.80.

ONLY 20 CENTS MORE,
AND IT'S ALL PAID FOR.

CAN I HOLD IT FOR A MINUTE?

I DON'T SEE WHY NOT.

IT'S MORE YOURS
THAN MINE RIGHT NOW.

♪ TA-DA-DA, TA-DA-DA ♪

JUST WAIT TILL G.W. SEES THIS.

I'LL BE ABLE TO HANDLE
ANYTHING G.W. THROWS AT ME.

SEE YOU TOMORROW, MR. GODSEY.

THE BIG DAY.

HEY, G.W.

HEY, MARY ELLEN. GUESS WHAT?

TOMORROW I'LL BE MAKI" THE LAST
PAYMENT ON THE CATCHER'S MITT.

HELLO, MARY ELLEN.

HEY, MARTHA ROSE.

THE CANDY, G.W.

YEAH, SORRY.

2 CENTS' WORTH OF
PEPPERMINTS, PLEASE.

OK, G.W.

IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME WITH
ME WHEN I PICK UP THE MITT...

G.W., I WANT YOU TO TAKE
A LOOK AT THIS DRESS.

ISN'T THAT THE SWEETEST
DRESS YOU'VE EVER SEEN?

IF YOU SAY SO.

WE CAN TAKE TURNS
USING THE MITT, G.W.

WOULDN'T I LOOK LIKE A DREAM
WALKIN' IN THIS DRESS, G.W.?

YOU'D BE SOMETHIN'.

HERE YOU ARE. YOUR 2
CENTS' WORTH OF PEPPERMINTS.

HOW MUCH IS THIS
DRESS, MR. GODSEY?

$2.98, AND WORTH EVERY PENNY.

PEPPERMINTS, G.W.

I'M GONNA TELL MY DADDY TO
JUST BUY ME THIS LITTLE DRESS.

THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.

IT'S A BEAUTY ALL RIGHT.

MARY ELLEN, ARE WE GOIN' HOME?

YEAH, SURE.

NOTHIN' TO KEEP US HERE.

GOODBYE, MR. GODSEY.

GOODBYE.

GOODBYE.

MORE PIE, JOHN?

NO THANKS, HONEY.

I THINK I CAN SAVE SOME ROOM

FOR ALL THAT TURKEY WE
FIGURE TO EAT TOMORROW.

DO IT AGAIN.

PLEASE, DADDY.

YOU SOUND JUST LIKE A TURKEY.

YOU KNOW, I'M SORT OF THE
RUDY VALLEE OF THE FLOCK.

ALL YOU NEED IS A MEGAPHONE.

I SURE WISH I WAS GOIN' HUNTING
WITH YOU BOYS TOMORROW.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE FUN, POP.

WHY DON'T YOU
COME ALONG WITH US?

NO, I THINK I'LL JUST STAY
HOME WITH MY OLD SWEETHEART.

MY HUNTIN' DAYS ARE ABOUT OVER.

YOU BROUGHT HOME MORE GAME
THAN 3 MEN IN YOUR TIME, OLD MAN.

DID I EVER TELL YOU
BOYS ABOUT THE TIME

I BROUGHT DOWN 4
TURKEYS WITH ONE SHOT?

NO, GRANDPA.

HOW'D THAT EVER HAPPEN, PAPA?

WELL, THERE WERE
THESE, UH, 4 TURKEYS,

3 BEAUTIES, SASSY HENS
JUST SITTIN' UP THERE

ROOSTIN' ON ONE
BRANCH, ALL TOGETHER.

ALL LINED UP. I TOOK
A BEAD ON THEM AND...

POW!

1, 2, 3.

BUT YOU SAID 4, GRANDPA.

HMM?

OH, SO I DID.

WELL, THOSE 3 OF THEM BUNCHED
UP TOGETHER, THEY WAS EASY.

BUT THE 4TH, AN OLD TOM TURKEY,

HE WAS ROOSTIN' ON ANOTHER
BRANCH ON ANOTHER TREE.

AS SOON AS HE HEARD THE SOUND
OF MY SHOT, THAT SET HIM HUSTLING.

AND DURNED IF HE DIDN'T FLY
RIGHT SMACK-DAB INTO MY SHOT

JUST AS I DROPPED THE 3RD ONE.

GRANDPA...

SOMETHING'S AT THE CHICKENS.

JOHN-BOY, YOU COME WITH ME.

THE REST OF YOU STAY PUT.

EXCUSE ME, HONEY.

JOHN-BOY, LOAD UP.

LOAD UP?

I TOLD YOU TO STAY
PUT. NOW GET INSIDE.

I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING.

BUT I WANT TO TELL
YOU SOMETHIN', SON.

THIS IS JUST BETWEEN YOU AND ME.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

YES, SIR.

A BEAR RAIDED
NICHOLSON'S LAST NIGHT.

A BEAR?

BIG BRUISER. HE KILLED A CALF.

RAFE SHOT AT HIM.

HE HIT HIM?

DON'T KNOW.

I'M GOIN' INSIDE. YOU
BE CAREFUL, YOU HEAR?

DO YOU SEE ANYTHING?

UH-UH.

PROBABLY JUST A
NIGHTHAWK OR AN OWL.

I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING
INSIDE TO UPSET THE OTHERS.

I KNEW YOU AND
ME COULD HANDLE IT.

I RECKON.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A WARM FEELING, TO
STAND OFF AND LOOK AT YOUR HOME

TO KNOW YOUR WIFE AND LOVED
ONES ARE INSIDE, SAFE AND WARM.

YOU'LL KNOW ONE DAY.

MUST'VE BEEN WHAT IT WAS LIKE
BEFORE THINGS GOT SO CIVILIZED.

I MEAN, UH,

A MAN STANDING
BETWEEN HIS FAMILY

AND ANYTHING THAT
MIGHT HURT THEM.

I'M REAL PROUD YOU'RE GOIN'
WITH ME ON THE HUNT TOMORROW.

I KNOW.

A MAN'S FIRST HUNT SHOULD BE
SOMETHIN' HE REMEMBERS ALL HIS LIFE.

I ASKED CHARLIE AND
HAWTHORNE TO GO ALONG

BECAUSE THEY'RE GOOD OLD BOYS.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE A SOLID
GOLD, 100 PERCENT GOOD TIME.

100 PERCENT.

WELL, WE BETTER
BE GETTING INSIDE

OR YOUR MAMA WILL
SEND OUT A SEARCH PARTY.

NOW, REMEMBER THIS
BEAR'S BETWEEN YOU AND ME.

DON'T FORGET.

I WON'T.

MAYBE I'VE KILLED
WITHOUT KNOWING.

A SPIDER OR A FROG OR
SOMETHING I'VE STEPPED ON.

IT'S KNOWING THAT I'M GONNA
TAKE LIFE FROM SOMETHING

THAT TREASURES LIFE
AS MUCH I TREASURE MINE.

IT'S THE PLANNING AHEAD,

GOING LOOKING FOR IT, HUNTING
FOR IT THAT MAKES IT MURDER.

I'M RIGHT SICK ABOUT IT,

AND I'M RIGHT SCARED
OF TOMORROW.

I'M ALSO SCARED OF WHAT MY
LIFE IS GOING TO BE LIKE IF I FAIL.

YEAH?

MARY ELLEN. LET ME IN.

I THINK I'M HAVING
A HEART ATTACK.

HEART ATTACK?

WELL, IT KEEPS GOING
WHAM, WHAM, WHAM!

THEN IT STOPS FOR THE LONGEST
TIME, AND I THINK I'M SUFFOCATIN'.

HOW DID IT START?

I'VE BEEN TRYIN' TO GO TO SLEEP,
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THINGS.

YEAH, WHAT KIND OF THINGS?

LIKE WHY A BOY
LIKES A GIRL ONE DAY,

AND THE NEXT DAY HE'S OFF
CHASING SOME OTHER GIRL.

I KNOW WHAT KIND OF
HEART TROUBLE YOU'VE GOT.

G.W. HAINES HEART
TROUBLE. RIGHT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
HE SEES IN HER.

SHE CAN'T CATCH,
CAN'T RUN, CAN'T THROW.

SCREAMS IF SHE
SEES A WOOLLYWORM.

WHY, NOT MORE THAN A WEEK
AGO, G.W. WAS MAKIN' FUN OF HER.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, SISTER, THERE COMES A TIME
WHEN BOYS LIKE GIRLS TO BE DIFFERENT.

AND G.W. MAY BE AT
EXACTLY THAT POINT.

WHERE A FANCY DRESS IS MORE
INTERESTIN' THAN A GREAT CATCHER'S MITT?

WELL, HE MIGHT STILL
LIKE THE CATCHER'S MITT

BUT HE'D RATHER SEE
THE GIRL IN A FANCY DRESS.

DID I LEAVE MY HARP IN HERE?

NO. I DON'T KNOW,
JASON. LOOK AROUND.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU GOT A SAFETY PIN, JOHN-BOY?

LOOK OVER ON THE DRESSER.

THE STRINGS IN MY PAJAMAS BROKE.

CAN I SLEEP IN HERE, JOHN-BOY?

THERE'S A MOUSE UNDER MY BED.

UH-HUH.

HEY.

HMM?

WHAT ARE YOU WRITIN'?

STUFF. GO ON TO BED.

JOHN-BOY, WILL YOU
KISS ME GOOD NIGHT?

SURE, HONEY.

GOOD NIGHT.

GO ON TO BED NOW.

NOW, WHAT'S IT DOING UNDER HERE?

PLAY SOMETHING PRETTY, JASON.

♪♪

♪♪

WHAT IS THIS, A FAMILY REUNION?

GO ON WRITING, JOHN-BOY.

YOU'RE NOT BOTHERING US.

OH, NO? WELL, YOU
ARE BOTHERING ME.

NOW GO ON TO BED, ALL OF YOU.

BUT YOU SAID I COULD STAY.

WELL, I AM NOW SAYIN'
THAT YOU CAN GO.

WHAT DO YOU THINK I
AM, AN OLD MOTHER HEN?

GO ON, SCAT!

GO ON, SCAT!

GO ON, SCAT!

OUT!

OUT!

JOHN.

HMM?

HAVE YOU NOTICED THE
CHICKEN HOUSE LATELY?

UH-HUH.

THERE'S A HOLE IN THE ROOF BIG
ENOUGH TO SLING A CAT THROUGH.

I'LL GET TO IT AS SOON
AS I HAVE TIME, LIV.

COME A GOOD RAIN, I'M GONNA HAVE
ME A FLOCK OF WET, DROOPY CHICKENS.

I CERTAINLY WOULD LIKE
TO HAVE THAT ROOF FIXED.

WHY COULDN'T JOHN-BOY
STAY HOME AND FIX IT?

NOW, LIV.

I CAN'T MAKE HIM STAY HOME.

HE'S BEEN LOOKIN' FORWARD
TO THIS HUNT FOR WEEKS.

NOT LOOKIN' FORWARD.

DREADIN'.

THAT'S NATURAL.

GOING UP IN THE MOUNTAINS
WITH SEASONED HUNTERS

LIKE CHARLIE, AND
HAWTHORNE, AND ME.

HE WANTS TO PROVE HIMSELF
A MAN IN FRONT OF MEN.

HE DIDN'T ASK TO
STAY HOME, DID HE?

NO.

HE SAYS HE WANTS TO GO,

BUT I'M NOT SURE
HE'S TELLIN' THE TRUTH.

HE'S NEVER IN HIS LIFE
KILLED A LIVIN' THING.

LIVIE, HE'S GONNA DO JUST FINE.

THERE'S MORE TO BEIN' A
MAN THAN SHOOTIN' TURKEYS.

THAT'S FOR SURE.

BUT PART OF BEIN' A MAN IS
PROVIDING FOOD FOR A HUNGRY FAMILY.

DID YOU SEE HIM
PRACTICIN' ALL DAY TODAY?

PRACTICIN' IS ONE THING.

COMIN' FACE TO FACE
WITH A LIVIN' CREATURE

AND HAVING TO
KILL IT IS ANOTHER.

AND HE'S SO
HEART-BENT TO PLEASE.

HE'S A GOOD BOY, LIV.

I WISH I COULD HOLD BACK TIME,

KEEP THESE HAPPY DAYS,

MY CHILDREN WITH ME,

YOUNG, INNOCENT.

YOU KNOW THAT...

IF YOU KEEP YOUR CHILDREN
YOUNG AND INNOCENT,

YOU'LL ROB THEM OF
WHAT WE'VE FOUND.

LOOK HERE, STEEL
IN THEM FIRING PINS

JUST AS GOOD AS THE
DAY I BOUGHT IT IN '02.

OLD MAN, YOU DECIDED
TO GO AFTER ALL?

NO, I'M JUST CARIN' FOR IT.

YES, SIRREE.

IT'S AS GOOD AS
THE DAY I BOUGHT IT.

THERE THEY ARE.

HERE WE GO.

CHARLIE AND HAWTHORNE.

THOSE OLD BOYS
ARE RIGHT ON TIME.

ANY KIND OF A HUNT
OR AN OPEN BOTTLE

AND CHARLIE SNEED'S
FIRST ACROSS THE LINE.

CHARLIE SNEED'S A
SOCIAL TYPE, MAMA.

GOOD MORNIN', MEN.

MORNIN', MORNIN'!

BEAUTIFUL DAY. PRAISE THE LORD!

SPROCKET, ARE YOU AS
GOOD AS YOUR DADDY?

CHARLIE, JOHN-BOY'S DECIDED HE
WANTS TO BE CALLED BY HIS RIGHT NAME.

OK. JOHN-BOY, ARE YOU
AS GOOD AS YOUR DADDY?

OH, THAT BOY'S
GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.

DON'T GO CALLIN' OUT LIKE THAT
WHERE I CAN'T SEE YOU PLAIN.

I'M LIABLE TO MISTAKE
YOU FOR THE REAL THING.

GOOD MORNIN', MR. WALTON.

YOU COMING WITH US?

MORNIN'. NOT TODAY, HAWTHORNE.

I'M TAKING POTATOES.

GOT PLENTY OF THINGS
TO DO AROUND HERE.

WHERE DID YOU GET THIS
OLD BLUNDERBUSS, JOHN-BOY?

THAT'S AN OLD ONE MY
DADDY USED TO HAVE.

YOU MEAN THIS OLD
BEANSHOOTER STILL WORKS?

A LITTLE OFF AT THE SIGHT AND IT
KICKS LIKE A MULE, BUT IT'S ALL RIGHT.

ANY TURKEY THAT COMES AROUND YOU

WILL AT LEAST HAVE
A SPORTING CHANCE.

I RECKON.

MORNIN', CHARLIE.

HELLO, LIVIE.

HAWTHORNE.

MORNIN', MRS. WALTON.

THANK YOU, MRS. WALTON.

HOW'S YOUR FAMILY, HAWTHORNE?

OH, HUNGRY 24 HOURS A
DAY AND GROWIN' LIKE WEEDS.

MINE, TOO.

YOU KNOW, THE GOSPEL SAYS:

"A MAN DOES NOT
LIVE BY BREAD ALONE."

I PREACH IT
BECAUSE I BELIEVE IT.

MY KIDS NEED BREAD AND MEAT

AND A PREACHER'S PAY
DOESN'T PAY FOR NEITHER.

I SURE HOPE YOU
GET A TURKEY TODAY.

OH, THANK YOU, MRS. WALTON.

JOHN-BOY, THIS BEING YOUR
FIRST HUNT, I AIM TO WISH YOU LUCK.

THANK YOU, GRANDPA.

BUT YOU ARE GONNA
NEED MORE THAN LUCK.

YOU TAKE THIS.

THAT'S YOUR GUN, GRANDPA.

UH,

THAT WAY, I FIGURE I AIM TO
BE PART OF THIS HERE HUNT.

TAKE IT.

THANK YOU.

USE IT WELL, SON.

LET'S GO.

HEY, MAMA, YOU GET
THAT ROASTING PAN READY!

RECKLESS, SETTLE DOWN.

I COULD USE A CUP
OF COFFEE, GRANDPA.

HOW ABOUT YOU?

MM-HMM.

COME ON, JOHN-BOY.

I'M COMIN', DADDY.

PICK THEM UP, BOY! PICK THEM UP.

SHOOO-WHEE!

WHAT AM I DOING RUNNING?

AND UPHILL.

YOUR DADDY STARTED IT.

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO, JOHN?

GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?

I JUST FELT LIKE
LIFTIN' MY HEELS.

NO LAW SAYS YOU HAVE
TO DO THE SAME, CHARLIE.

NO.

I SWEAR, I THINK THAT FIREPLACE

WILL BE STANDIN'
LONG AFTER ALL OF US.

YOUR GREAT-GREAT-GRANDDADDY
BUILT THAT FIREPLACE.

YOU KNOW THAT, JOHN-BOY?

YES, SIR.

YOU EVER SEEN HIM, DADDY?

NO. HE DIED LONG
BEFORE I WAS BORN.

PAPA KNEW HIM, THOUGH.

HE SAID HE WAS THE
BIGGEST MAN HE EVER SAW.

COMIN' TO THIS COUNTRY
WITH NOTHING BUT A MULE,

A PLOW, AND A RIFLE.

AH, THEY BUILT MEN IN THEM
PIONEER DAYS ALL RIGHT.

BIG MEN, CHARLIE.

A MAN HAD TO BE HIS OWN CARPENTER,
DOCTOR, HUNTER, UNDERTAKER,

YOU NAME IT.

BEEN ME, I'D GONE BACK

AND GOT ON THE FIRST BOAT
HEADED FOR THE OLD COUNTRY.

HA. I EXPECT A FEW OF MY
FOLKS DID EXACTLY THAT.

YOU JOKE ABOUT THAT, HAWTHORNE?

OH, JOHN, NOW YOU KNOW MY FOLKS HAD
TO LEARN TO LAUGH TO KEEP FROM CRYIN'.

WELL, YOU CAN'T BLAME
THAT ON ANY OF MY FAMILY.

I COME FROM A LONG
LINE OF HORSE THIEVES.

CHARLIE, YOU KNOW YOU COME
FROM A LONG LINE OF FARMERS

AND YOU KNOW IT WELL.

DON'T SPOIL MY REPUTATION.

A GIRL WOULDN'T LOOK
AT AN OLD DIRT FARMER,

BUT SHE'D DANCE ALL NIGHT
WITH A GOOD-LOOKIN' HORSE THIEF.

SHOOO-WHEE!

RIGHT, LET'S LOAD
UP AND HUNT TURKEY.

THAT WHAT YOU SAY, BOY?

YES, SIR, DADDY.

IS THIS OK, MARY ELLEN?

PERFECT.

YOU ALL ARE LEARNIN' REAL FAST.

WHEN ARE JIM-BOB AND
ME GOIN' TO KNOW ENOUGH

SO WE CAN GO INTO THE
BUSINESS FOR OURSELVES?

WELL, YOU'RE STILL APPRENTICES WHILE
I'M TEACHING YOU THE JUNK BUSINESS.

OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED
OF YOURSELF, MARY ELLEN,

HAVING JIM-BOB AND ELIZABETH COLLECT
STUFF AND YOU GETTING THE MONEY.

IT'S FAIR, ERIN. WE'LL
ALL GET TO USE THE MITT.

YEAH, WHEN SHE AND G.W.
HAINES AREN'T PLAYIN' WITH IT.

ELIZABETH, JUST
LOOK AT YOUR HANDS!

THAT'S WHAT SOAP IS
FOR, MISS PRISSY-PANTS.

I'M GOIN' TO TELL MAMA ON YOU.

GO AHEAD, MISS DAINTY-DRAWERS.

MAMA, MARY ELLEN'S GOT JIM-BOB
AND ELIZABETH WORKING FOR HER.

SHE'S GOT ELIZABETH JUST FILTHY,

AND NOW SHE'S CALLIN' ME NAMES.

MARY ELLEN, HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY
MANAGE SO MANY THINGS AT ONCE?

I'M A GOOD ORGANIZER, MAMA.

LISTEN TO THE NOISE
OF THAT WAGON.

IT'S LIKE HAVING YOUR OWN BAND.

MRS. WALTON, GOOD MORNING.

GOOD MORNING, JAKE.

SO...

YOU'VE BEEN BUSY, MARY ELLEN?

YES, SIR.

REMARKABLE. REALLY REMARKABLE.

WHERE DO YOU FIND SUCH THINGS?

IF I TOLD YOU, YOU WOULDN'T
HAVE TO BUY THEM FROM ME.

IF I EVER THOUGHT OF TAKING IN A
PARTNER, SHE'D BE MY FIRST CHOICE.

I'LL GIVE YOU 12
CENTS FOR THE LOT.

25 CENTS.

15 CENTS.

MAMA, LOOK.

JUST DON'T GET IN
THE RAIN IN THAT THING.

JAKE, YOU'VE BEEN NICE TO ME.

SHE'S GONNA BE REASONABLE.

22 CENTS.

22 CENTS!

IF THAT'S THE WAY SHE TREATS A
PERSON WHO'S BEEN NICE TO HER...

17 CENTS.

I'LL LOSE MONEY, BUT
MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING.

MAMA, JIM-BOB'S MY HUSBAND.

20 CENTS, AND THE
PARASOL AND HAT.

I SHOULD MAKE HER A
PARTNER BEFORE SHE RUINS ME.

ALL RIGHT. 20 CENTS.

THE PARASOL AND THE HAT.

THANKS, MARY ELLEN!

5,

10,

15.

IT'S NICE TO KNOW THE
RICHEST GIRL IN THE COUNTY.

16, 17.

AND WHEN I'M BANKRUPT,
DON'T FEEL TOO BAD.

18,

19,

20.

THANKS, JAKE. I'LL HELP YOU
LOAD THE STUFF ON THE WAGON.

WHY DON'T YOU COME IN FOR
A CUP OF COFFEE FIRST, JAKE?

I WOULDN'T MIND.

I HAD CIDER WITH
IKE, THE RECI...

LEMONADE WITH THE
BALDWIN SISTERS...

WHAT'S NEW WITH MISS
EMILY AND MISS MAMIE?

THEY SAW A BEAR LAST NIGHT.

A BEAR?

AND THEY FOUND BLOOD, TOO.

MEANS HE'S WOUNDED.

A WOUNDED BEAR, MAMA.

LIKELY IT'S GONE
INTO THE HILLS TO DIE.

DON'T WORRY. DON'T WORRY.

OW!

I THINK I'VE TURNED MY ANKLE.

OW!

DON'T APPEAR TO
BE NO BROKEN BONES.

TEST YOUR WEIGHT ON IT.

HURT BAD?

IT'S OK.

LOOK, SON,

THIS ISN'T THE ONLY TURKEY
HUNT WE'LL BE HAVIN' THIS YEAR.

NO USE SUFFERIN'.

I'LL GO BACK TO THE
TRUCK... I CAN MAKE IT.

DON'T WANT YOU HURTIN' YOURSELF.

DADDY, I'M COUNTIN' ON GETTIN' A
TURKEY, AND I'M GONNA BE JUST FINE.

SOME CRIME BEEN
COMMITTED UP THERE?

I WAS JUST SNEAKIN'
OFF TO THE STORE, MAMA.

WITHOUT A WORD TO ANYONE?

I SORT OF WANTED
TO GO BY MYSELF.

IT'S MORE DREAMY.

AS WELL AS SELFISH NOT TO
TAKE YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

MAMA, I NEVER GET TO BE ALONE.

IT IS HARDER TO
DREAM IN A CROWD.

GO ON.

THANKS, MAMA.

RECKLESS, WHAT'RE
YOU DOIN' HERE?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE TIED UP, BOY.

WHAT'S HE DOIN' HERE?

LOOK, DADDY, IT
MUST'VE BEEN A RABBIT.

WHAT'S LEFT OF IT.

AH.

BOBCAT, MOST LIKELY.

OR A FOX.

HAWK.

WHATEVER KILLED IT
DIDN'T EAT ALL OF IT.

I EXPECT IT WAS A FOX THEN.

A FOX WILL KILL JUST
FOR THE FUN OF IT.

I'VE SEEN A FOX MANY A TIME
WORRY A RABBIT TO DEATH,

LIKE A CAT WILL A MOUSE.

NOT MANY ANIMALS KILL

FOR THE SPORT OF
IT, THOUGH, CHARLIE.

DON'T IT GIVE YOU
A LITTLE QUIVER

WHEN YOU PULL THE
TRIGGER, THOUGH, JOHN?

NO, SIR.

I'M JUST THINKIN',
MEAT ON THE TABLE.

NOW, RECKLESS, HOW'D
YOU GET OUT HERE, BOY?

HOW DID YOU GET UP HERE, HUH?

WHAT'RE YOU DOIN' UP HERE,
YOU OLD HOUND DOG, YOU?

YOU BROKE THAT ROPE.

YEAH. THAT'S A BOY.

YOU ALL RIGHT, SON?

100 PERCENT.

COME ON, RECKLESS, DURN YOU.

WHY DON'T YOU JUST GET ON HOME?

GO ON. GO ON, NOW. GET!

GET! GO!

MMM, SWEET POTATOES.

THOUGHT THEY'D GO
REAL GOOD WITH TURKEY.

OH, YOU'RE WORSE THAN JOHN, YOU'RE
ROASTING YOUR TURKEY BEFORE IT'S SHOT.

THERE'S AN OLD TOM
TURKEY UP ON THAT MOUNTAIN.

MUST BE NEAR AS OLD AS I AM.

WELL, I SURE HOPE THEY
DON'T BRING THAT ONE HOME.

BE TOUGH AS SHOE LEATHER.

IF THERE'S A TURKEY UP
THERE, JOHN'LL BRING IT BACK.

DON'T SELL THAT
BOY SHORT, NEITHER.

HE HAS A WALTON WAY WITH A GUN.

WE ARE GETTING CLOSE.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

HE'S YOUR BOY, JOHN.

NO MISTAKIN' THAT.

THIS BEIN' JOHN'S FIRST HUNT,

WHY DON'T WE LET HIM
TAKE THE FIRST SHOT?

CERTAINLY.

COULDN'T BE NO OTHER WAY.

AHH, A PLAGUE TAKE THAT
WORTHLESS SON OF SATAN.

A FEW SECONDS MORE

AND YOU'D HAVE HAD YOURSELF THE
GRANDDADDY OF ALL TURKEYS, JOHN-BOY.

NOW, DON'T FRET. YOU'LL
GET ANOTHER CHANCE.

THERE.

NOW, BOY, NOW.

NOW.

WHAT HAPPENED?

I JUST CAN'T DO THAT.

YOU KNOW,

THE FIRST TIME I WAS EVER
IN WATER OVER MY HEAD,

PAPA DECIDED IT WAS
TIME I LEARNED TO SWIM,

SO HE THREW ME IN.

NOW, I'M NOT FORCIN' YOU INTO
DEEP WATER BEFORE YOU'RE READY,

AM I, SON?

YOU SEE, I'M...

I'M JUST TRYIN' TO UNDERSTAND,

MAYBE HELP YOU UNDERSTAND, TOO.

YOU KNOW HOW I
FEEL ABOUT KILLIN'

JUST FOR THE SPORT
OF KILLIN', DON'T YOU?

I KNOW.

I'M NOT ONE OF THE MOST
CHURCH-GOIN' MEN IN THE WORLD.

BUT TO ME...

LIFE IS A MYSTERY.

A SACRED MYSTERY.

PART OF THAT MYSTERY SEEMS TO BE

THE STRUGGLE WE
ALL HAVE TO STAY ALIVE.

TO KEEP LIFE IN OURSELVES
AND IN... IN THOSE WE CHERISH,

SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO TAKE LIFE.

THAT'S THE WAY IT IS
WITH ALL LIVIN' ANIMALS,

RIGHT DOWN THROUGH
THE WHOLE CHAIN OF LIFE.

TO ME, THAT'S WHAT...
WHAT THIS HUNT'S ABOUT.

NOW, DOES THAT MAKE
ANY SENSE TO YOU AT ALL?

IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO ME.

YOU WANT TO TRY AGAIN?

I'M NOT FORCIN'
YOU. I'M JUST ASKIN'.

DADDY, I DON'T THINK IT WOULD
MAKE ONE BIT OF DIFFERENCE.

'CAUSE I'VE FOUND OUT
ABOUT MYSELF NOW,

AND I'M NOT LIKE YOU OR GRANDPA.

I'M JUST COWARDLY,
AND I'VE SHAMED YOU.

NOW YOU STOP TALKIN' LIKE THAT.

YOU STOP TALKIN' LIKE THAT NOW.

NOT SHOOTIN' SOME OLD TURKEY
DON'T MAKE YOU A COWARD.

SOMETIMES IT TAKES A SIGHT
MORE GUTS NOT TO DO SOMETHING

IF IT GOES AGAINST
YOUR FEELINGS.

YOU'RE A WALTON.

YOU'RE A WALTON MAN,

AND YOU'VE NEVER DONE
NOTHIN' YET TO SHAME ME.

YOU UNDERSTAND?

I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW I'M
GOIN' TO EXPLAIN TO GRANDPA.

GRANDPA.

HE UNDERSTANDS A LOT
MORE THAN YOU THINK HE DOES.

WELL...

CHARLIE AND HAWTHORNE
WANT TO KEEP GOIN', PROBABLY.

WELL... YOU MIND IF I
JUST HEAD ON HOME?

CHARLIE. HAWTHORNE.

WELL, FELLOWS, I RECKON
I'LL BE HEADIN' ON HOME NOW.

OLD ANKLE TROUBLIN'
YOU, HUH, SON?

WELL, NO, CHARLIE, NOT EXACTLY.

JOHN-BOY DOESN'T OWE
US ANY EXPLANATIONS.

NO.

AND Y'ALL CAN STAND
AROUND AND JAW IF YOU WANT.

ME, I'M GOIN' AFTER THAT TURKEY.

IT IS A STRUTTING
BEAUTY, FOR SURE.

OK.

I'LL SEE YOU AT HOME.

YOU KNOW, I'LL BE DANGED
IF I'M NOT ALMOST AS EXCITED

ABOUT THIS DAY AS
YOU ARE, MARY ELLEN.

YOU KNOW, IT SEEMS LIKE I'VE
BEEN WORKIN' RIGHT ALONG WITH YOU

DURIN' ALL THESE WEEKS.

FACT IS, I THINK I'M MORE
EXCITED ABOUT IT THAN YOU ARE.

YOU ARE EXCITED,
AREN'T YOU, MARY ELLEN?

OH, I'M EXCITED.

WELL, IT'S YOURS.

ALL YOURS.

I GUESS ANYBODY
WEARING THIS DRESS

WOULD BE BOUND TO LOOK PRETTY.

WELL, I... DON'T THINK IT WOULD LOOK
TOO GOOD WITH A CATCHER'S MITT.

CATCH DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THE
GAME G.W. WANTS TO PLAY ANYMORE.

MR. GODSEY, SINCE
THE PRICE IS THE SAME,

CAN I HAVE THIS DRESS
INSTEAD OF THE MITT?

YOU WANT THIS DRESS?

YEAH.

MARY ELLEN, OPEN
THIS DOOR AT ONCE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOIN' IN HERE
WITH THE CURTAINS DRAWN?

WHAT'S THAT YOU GOT ON?

A NEW DRESS, AND I HATE IT.

LOOK AT ME, MAMA.
JUST LOOK AT ME!

I'M LOOKIN'.

DID YOU EVER IN YOUR LIFE
SEE ANYTHING SO PATHETIC?

THAT DRESS, IT'S, UM...

IT'S JUST NOT
YOUR STYLE. IT, UH...

IT DOESN'T BRING OUT
YOUR BEST FEATURES.

THAT'S FOR SURE. I'M A FREAK.

I BETTER GO RUN
OFF WITH A CARNIVAL.

I'M NOT LIKE OTHER GIRLS AT ALL.

MARY ELLEN, YOU ARE NOT A FREAK.

YOU'RE A FINE-LOOKIN' GIRL.

NEXT DOOR TO BEIN' BEAUTIFUL.

YOU ONLY SAY THAT
'CAUSE YOU'RE MY MAMA.

HONEY, LISTEN.

TRYIN' TO BE SOMEBODY SHE'S
NOT NEVER MAKES A PERSON HAPPY.

YOU'RE MARY ELLEN WALTON,
NOT MARTHA ROSE COVERDALE.

THAT'S FOR SURE.

IF YOU LIKE YOURSELF, OTHERS
ARE GONNA LIKE YOU, TOO.

EVEN BOYS?

ESPECIALLY BOYS.

MAMA, HOW COME YOU'RE
SO SMART AND I'M SO DUMB?

COME LOOK IN THE MIRROR.

DO YOU SEE ANYBODY
DUMB IN THERE?

MAMA, WOULD YOU HELP
ME GET OUT OF THIS THING?

SURE.

MAYBE IF I TAKE IT RIGHT BACK,

MR. GODSEY WILL LET ME TRADE
IT IN FOR MY CATCHER'S MITT.

RECKLESS?

RECKLESS?

RECKLESS! WHAT HAPPENED, BOY?

WHAT HAPPENED?

RECKLESS.

I GOT YOU, RECKLESS. HERE WE GO.

HERE WE GO. COME ON.

DOWN HERE.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
EASY, BOY, EASY.

EASY, RECKLESS.

DADDY?

YOU THERE? I'M HERE.

DADDY?

DADDY? YOU THERE?

JOHN-BOY,

DON'T MOVE.

STAY RIGHT WHERE
YOU ARE, JOHN-BOY.

YOU'RE A GOOD MAN
TO HAVE AROUND.

GRANDPA'S GONNA HAVE
A NEW STORY TO TELL.

IS RECKLESS OK?

YEAH.

EVERYBODY'S GONNA BE JUST FINE.

AHH, MIGHTY GOOD TURKEY.

KIDS SEEMED TO THINK SO.

TOMORROW WE'LL HAVE
A NICE TURKEY HASH.

THEN TURKEY SOUP.

WHEN DO WE GET THE BEAR STEAK?

WHAT DO YOU CARE?
YOU CAN'T CHEW IT.

WELL, I'LL BE FOUND TRYIN'.

THAT WAS THE BIGGEST
BEAR I'VE EVER SEEN

IN ALL MY BORN DAYS
ON THE MOUNTAIN.

I DECLARE, ONE MINUTE
DADDY WOULD BE ON TOP,

THE NEXT MINUTE THE
BEAR WOULD BE ON TOP.

THERE WAS ONE TIME I
LOST YOU ALTOGETHER.

WELL, I THOUGHT I WAS
A GONER, I'LL TELL YOU.

YEP. HE WAS BROUGHT DOWN
WITH YOUR GUN, GRANDPA.

WELL, A GOOD GUN'S A GOOD GUN.

IT'S THE MAN BEHIND
IT THAT COUNTS.

AND WHEN IT'S A WALTON
LIKE JOHN-BOY, WOW!

LIVIE, THESE MEN WILL BE
SITTIN' HERE BRAGGING ALL NIGHT

IF WE DON'T TAKE
THE DISHES AWAY.

WHERE DID MARY ELLEN GET TO?

MARY ELLEN IS
WITH HER BOYFRIEND.

THAT'S RIGHT, I FORGOT.

BOYFRIEND? MARY ELLEN?

SHE'S TOO YOUNG FOR A BOYFRIEND.

COME HERE AND TAKE A LOOK.

GOOD PITCH, G.W.

THAT'S G.W.

HE'S NO BOYFRIEND,
HE'S JUST A FRIEND.

HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.

I BECAME NOT A
HUNTER BUT A WRITER.

AND I HOPE A SOURCE OF
SOME PRIDE TO MY FATHER.

FOR TO BE A GOOD
HUNTER OR A GOOD WRITER,

ONE MUST KNOW WHY HE
HUNTS OR WHY HE WRITES.

AND THE WHY OF IT ALL,
FOR ME, LIES IN THAT HOUSE

AND IN THE MEMORY OF
VOICES THAT RISE IN THE NIGHT,

AND WILL SWEETLY
HAUNT MY LIFE FOREVER.

JOHN-BOY.

WHAT DO YOU WANT, ELIZABETH?

YOU ASLEEP YET?

NOT YET.

WHAT'RE YOU DOIN'?

THINKIN'.

I'M PROUD YOU KILLED
THE BEAR, JOHN-BOY.

ME, TOO.

GOOD NIGHT, JOHN-BOY.

GOOD NIGHT, HONEY.

IN A MOMENT, SOME SCENES

EPISODE OF THE WALTONS.
