Though we have faith

and reasonable hope
for forgiveness,

we must each face the fact

that our actions create
a banquet of consequences.

In your case you may think
this is a mean supper,

but you chose it.

If your mother were alive,

she'd think this is best.

Whatever father said to
you, don't take it to heart.

Kent and I have a
little present for you

for later.

You'll be late for the train.

Colorado Springs.

Aboard for Denver,
Colorado Springs is here.

If you're traveling out
of town, have tickets.

Chicago what?

Hey!

Watch your step, Miss.

Thank you.

There you go.

Olivia?

Take care, buddy.

I'm Reverend Case.

Hello.

My dear, you look
just like your mother.

I was so sorry to
hear she passed away.

Thank you.

Oh, is this it?

For now, yes.

Well, we have quite a
little drive ahead of us.

Do you need

to use the station services?

Yes, please.

Pardon me.

Out here they
grow mostly grains,

a bit of sugar beets,

and vegetables.

No gasoline
shortage for farmers.

They get all they want.

No sugar shortage, either.

That's nice.

You must be Olivia.

Yes ma'am. How do you do?

Mr. Singleton's in the parlor.

Mr. Ray Singleton,

this is Miss Olivia Dunne.

Livy. Everyone calls me Livy.

Ray's sister's
waiting in the church.

Well, we'll just leave you two

to get acquainted a moment.

Raymond, why don't you pour

some lemonade for Livy?

Yes, ma'am.

We'll be in the church

when you're ready.

Thank you.

Mr. Singleton.

Ray please.

Ray.

Uh.

Now that you've had
a chance to meet me,

to see me in person,

do you have any doubts?

N
- No, ma'am.

Are you, uh.

Are you having
second thoughts?

No.

Do you think you'll be
able to love the baby?

Oh, I do.

Is there anything that
you'd like to ask me?

No.

You're so fine, I
can't believe no man.

I can't believe any man
would ever do this to you.

And do you, Raymond, take Olivia
to be your lawful wedded wife?

I do.

The rings?

Uh, I didn't.

I don't have a ring.

I don't. I don't need one.

Fine.

Bound by these sacred bonds,

may you vow to imitate Christ
in your new life together.

To give one another hope
when there is sorrow,

strength when
there is weakness,

faith and understanding

when there is
confusion or doubt.

In such a love, we are
sustained on this earthly life,

just as we hope for
eternal life through our

Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

I now pronounce
you man and wife.

Martha, Hank,

if you'd please
sign as witnesses.

Congratulations, Ray.

Thank you.

I'm Martha. I'm Ray's sister.

Pleased to meet you.

This is my husband, Hank.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Congratulations, Ray.

We hesitated to bring
the children today.

Thought we'd give you a
chance to settle in, and.

Oh, Ray, hold on.

Just a sec.

This is a little
casserole for supper.

I thought you must be tired

from all your traveling.

Thank you. That's
very thoughtful.

Now Ray, you bring Olivia over

to see us real soon, ok?

Well,

welcome to the family, huh?

Who are your neighbors?

Hmm?

Your neighbors who are they?

Uh, well, my sister.

She and Hank live
eight miles thataway.

Here.

Thank you.

Is that garden your mother's?

Uh, yes it was.

Someone sounds unhappy.

Uh, it's just the dog.

I put him in the shed
so he won't jump on you.

Thank you.

Uh.

Welcome home.

Kitchen's there.

There some, uh,
Coca-Colas in here.

No, thank you.

Uh, this was Martha's room,

and um.

This was my parents' room
where you'll be staying.

Will this be all right?

Mm-hmm.

Uh, let's see.

This is the bunk room.

You have a brother?

Well, I do.

Well, I did.

Daniel got killed
at Pearl Harbor.

This is the bathroom.

Indoor plumbing.

Got your hot water,

cold water.

I just put that in.

Where's the telephone?

Well, there's a
phone box in Wilson,

outside the post office.

Tomorrow, I'll get anything
you want to stock the kitchen.

I don't really
know how to cook.

I mean I could; I just
haven't really tried.

I can cook a fair bit.

My sister could come
over and teach you.

No, it's fine, you know,
it shouldn't be that hard.

I can get a book
from the library.

Is there a library?

Oh, yeah, in La Junta.

That's an hour away.

Yeah, about that.

The Reverend said you'd
had lots of schooling.

I was in graduate school,

studying archeology.

My college thesis

was Heinrich Schliemann's
excavation of Troy.

Is he German?

Yes.

Is he a Nazi?

No, he he lived in
the 19th century.

Oh, I can. No, sit.

Uh, Mrs. Pratt,

from church, she, uh,

she makes me a cake
nearly every week.

This one's, uh.
chocolate, I think.

Can I cut you a slice?

No, thank you.

We'll save it, then.

Ray.

um.

I was just wondering.

why you agreed to this.

When the reverend
come out to see me

and told me about
your situation.

well, I thought.

I thought.

maybe it'd be God's will.

God's will.

You want anything else?

No, thank you.

Farmers get to bed early.

You have everything you need?

Yes. Thank you.

All right.

Good night.

Good night.

Oh.

Good morning.

Morning.

I can't believe
I slept so late.

You needed your rest.

Franklin! No. Hey.

Come here.

He won't hurt you.

Good boy.

I thought I'd drive
into La Junta today.

Maybe look around town. Let
the family know that I'm here.

Could I borrow the truck?

Oh, well, uh, the beet
box has a mind of its own.

The beet box.

I use that truck
to haul my beets.

Right.

It's best if I drive you over.

Oh, I'm, I'm sure you
have things you need to do.

No bother. I'm glad to do it.

Just, uh, get my library card,

in case you want to
check out some cookbooks.

Are those tomatoes?

Potatoes.

Some of the fields are empty.

You bet.

Why?

Well, we harvested
the first cash crop.

Winter wheat.

Next we'll harvest them
beets and those potatoes.

May I help?

I doubt it.

You're right.

I I don't know
anything about farming.

You got the house
to take care of.

You need any change?

Uh, no, I have it. Thank you.

I'll be in the library.

Are you expecting
a little one?

Yes, ma'am. We are.

Well, how wonderful.

Yes, ma'am.

Do you have any books
on Henry Schliemann?

Is that S-H
or S-C-H?

Your guess is
better than mine.

I think he was
an archeologist.

Let me have a look.

If father wanted to punish me,

he's done a great job.

Oh, Livy, don't cry.

Oh, hon, is he horrid?

No. No.

Livy, if he mistreats
you for even one second,

I'm coming to get you.

Abby, is there any
word from Edward?

No.

Oh, Livy,

remember, this isn't forever.

I know.

All right now, the
clutch tends to stick.

You gotta ease off slow.

There you go.

Shift, shift.

Give it a pump.

That's it.

This is easy.

Now, the gas gauge says full,

but it isn't.

You gotta hit it just right,

it'll tell you the truth
for one split second,

then it shoots right
back up there to full.

Where do I hit it?

Uh, right there.

Just give it a pop.

Quick like.

That's it.

We have half a tank.

The gas can's in the
back, just in case.

Uau, look at that.

Are they Japanese?

Watch the road.

They're from Camp Amache.

That's an internment camp.

Yes, it is. Farms
are short-handed.

The government needs the
food, so they send the workers.

They work your farm?

Our farm.

Yes, they do.

# For the beauty
of the Earth #

# For the glory of the skies #

# For the love which
from our birth #

# Over and around us lies #

# Lord of all to
Thee we raise #

# This our hymn of
grateful praise #

# Lord of all to
Thee we raise #

# This our hymn of
grateful praise #

# Amen. #

Lord, we pray for the
relief of suffering

and an end to war
throughout the world.

Amen.

Amen.

Ruth's been dying to meet you.

She's my oldest.

Hi, Ruth.

I'm Livy.

And the boy's are
running around,

but they'll come in when they
realize the foods in here.

Is your dress store bought?

Oh, my.

Yes, it is.

I bet it was.

Well, Ray, are you
going to introduce us?

Yes, ma'am.

Miss Parker, this
is my wife, Livy.

Your wife? Well,
how do you do?

Nice to meet you.

Your wife! I'm Miss Parker.

I've known Ray since
he was this high.

And this is Mrs. Pratt.

Goodness me. We never knew.

So pleased to meet you.

And Martha never said a word.

Yes, aren't we all blessed?

Sweetheart, will you
help me at the table?

Bye.

Bye.

You must not be from here.

We've been so
worried about Ray.

The way things have
played out here.

And not a single young
women to speak of.

And Ray's such a
fine, young man.

How'd you meet?
How'd you meet?

I eloped.

Uh, we met in Denver.

How romantic.

I never knew you
traveled to Denver.

You come sit by me

at the potluck.

We'd like stay,
but we gotta get on.

But we're really
gonna enjoy your cake,

Miss Pratt, thank you.

You're most welcome.
You're very welcome.

Good-bye.
Bye-bye.

I just have a letter

I need to drop at
the post office.

It's Sunday.

I could mail it
for you tomorrow.

Oh, it already
has a stamp on it.

I'm just going to drop it
in the box to my sister.

Can you swim here?

It's right shallow
for swimming.

There's two feet
of silt down there.

You like to swim?

I used to.

I used to love to swim.

Thank you for
lying to Mrs. Pratt.

Middle of the day's not
the best time for fishing.

Being out here is the point.

Fishing's. just an
excuse, I suspect.

Excuse us.

No, I'm sorry.

What, what were you studying?

Um butterflies.

Do you collect?

No. We log our observations
in our notebook.

I'm Livy.

I
- I live in the farmhouse.

We were just
getting back to work.

No, wait, wait.

What did I cause you to miss?

What were you What kind
of butterfly did you see?

It was a Common Blue.

There!

Are, are there
many species here?

Yes, hundreds.

Like what?

Silver-Spotted Skippers.

Mourning Cloaks, Hawkmoths.

Mm-hmm. Specklewoods.

May I see your book?

These are beautiful.

Thank you.

Look.

there.

What is it?

A Sulphur. some
species of Sulphur.

Shoo! Shoo! I'm sorry.

Franklin, no!

He's your dog?

No. Well uh,
are-are you thirsty?

We should get back to work.

Come to the house anytime.

We have cold colas
in the icebox.

Thank you.

Wait! What are your names?

Rose Umahara.

And Florie.

Bye.

Bye.

Go away, Franklin.

Go away.

I'm almost four
months pregnant.

Yes, that's what I
would have guessed.

It was a mistake.

When the baby arrives,

you won't see it as
a mistake anymore.

I'd like to believe you.

Then do so, Mrs. Singleton.

Well, I'd say we're looking
at the third week of December.

A Christmas baby.

Mmm.

While we're in town, I
need to mail a letter.

Everything go all right?

Everything's
right on schedule.

Did he say when
the baby was coming?

December. I could have
told you that before.

People will know.

People will know
the baby's early.

What will they think, then?

I don't care
what people think.

I don't see how
you could be immune.

People judge, people gossip.

They won't say a thing.

And why is that?

Well. they want
the best for us.

Smells good.

A fiesta omelet.

Maybe I put too many
jalapeño peppers in it.

No, it's real good.

Real good cooking.

The cheese. I
forgot the cheese.

It might mellow it; hold on.

What is that?

That'll be Hank.

What's that,
what's that sound?

It's the Claw.

What are you doing
with that thing?

Thanks. You said
you like to swim.

Dig you a hole so summertimes,

you and the children
can go swimming.

"Children"?

Aunt Livy!

Hi!

Hi.

Hey, I hope you don't
mind us coming along.

The boys couldn't
miss it. Hank.

It's not every day
somebody digs a hole.

That one that flew by
there, that's Chester,

and this is Hank Jr.

Hello, Hank Jr.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Do you like my hair?

You look lovely.

She asked me to do
it up just like yours.

Hank, Honey,

keep a watch on your brother.

Make sure he doesn't
get under that thing.

Here, Franklin, here, boy.

Get in there, Ray!

So, have you chosen a name

for your baby? Ruth.

Well, you told me Uncle Ray

and Aunt Livy
were having a baby.

Aren't you?

I hav I haven't
thought of a name yet.

I like the name Patricia.

My parents had to
go and name me Ruth.

Ruth is an old biblical name.

It's a very beautiful
one, in my opinion.

Thank you.

Maybe now she'll keep it.

Boys, get on!

Get on!

Move it on out of here, boys!

Uncle Ray's at the wheel.

Martha, did you grow
up in this house?

I did.

Our grandpa built it.

And before that, he and
Grandma lived in a dugout,

which is still over
there by the south field.

Right?

Really?

So, you never
lived anywhere else?

Nope.

Our younger brother, Danny.

was the adventurous one.

Drop it now!

What?!

What's in your locket?

Oh, I forgot I was wearing it.

Ruth, don't pry.

It's as if your mother
didn't teach you any manners.

Easy, easy!

It looks a little heavy, Ray!

Drop her down!

Lever on the left!

On the left!

Isn't there a manual
for that thing?

Well, if there were,

do you think they'd read it?

That was easy!

I didn't ask him to do that.

to dig a swimming hole.

I don't know why he's
going to the trouble.

He just wants to please you.

I may not dance.

Well, Martha'll just
be glad we're there.

She's always been
a fool for dancing.

Slim's her favorite.

Don't you ever wonder
what else is out there,

beyond the farm?

Sometimes.

Aren't you curious
how other people live?

I enjoy a drive, but. I
like coming back to my place.

Sleeping on my land.

Your land.

It seems every war
in human history

is about owning the land.

I like the Indian view.

that we're just
temporary guardians

of the land where we live.

It's not temporary to me.

But your family's
owned this land

for less than a hundred years.

In the span of
history, that's nothing.

In the span of a life.

that's near everything.

You're next, you know!

And you think I'm joking.

They're here. Uncle
Ray and Aunt Livy.

Oh!

Ah, there they are.

Happy birthday.

Hey, Ray.

Hey!

Happy birthday,
sis. Oh, finally.

It's not a party
till you come.

Come on, come on.

There's my guy.

Ray, you really
ought to dance.

I'm fine.

All right.

You sure? Yeah.

All right.

How about a dance with
my beautiful daughter?

Aw.

Hank Jr.?

Come here.

Come here.

Good.

Whoo-hoo!
Whoo-hoo!

Right here.

It was good.

We're here tonight to
celebrate a birthday.

I've known this fine,
young lady since.

since I was Slim.

Martha, Hank says
you're a fine wife.

That's the truth,
Slim. The best.

We know you're a fine mother,

You bet. And you're
a first-class friend.

Happy Birthday.

- Thank you.
- Happy Birthday!

Thank you, sweetheart.

That's my girl.

Thank you.

# This isn't just a story #

# Or a tale, as it may seem #

- Thank you. - # It's all
about my brown-eyed gal #

Thank you, honey.
I love you, Martha.

I know.

# If you could only see her #

# I am sure that
you'll agree #

# That she will
be the only girl #

# For you as well as me #

# She's my brown-eyed baby #

# She's as pretty as can be #

# Her eyes, they
shine like starlight #

# And they're just
as bright to me #

# When I look into her eyes,
say, I really heave a sigh #

# Yes, sir, she's
my brown-eyed baby #

Hi, Livy.

Hi.

One.

Hi. I brought drinks.

Thank you. Thank you.

Mm-hmm. Let's sit.

We skipped off
from our overseer.

Florie.

Although we shouldn't
tell you that.

This is your land.

My husband's.

He's handsome.

Who?

Your husband.

Oh.

So, um, where were you.

before the war?

California.

Mm-hmm. Born and raised.

We were both at USC.

What were your majors?

Mine was English.

English.

I hoped to teach
literature someday.

Rose is a long-term planner.

Everything in
her life she plans

ten years in advance.

You didn't plan on
this, did you, Rose?

Picking potatoes?

At least I had plans.

I hadn't declared

my major yet.

Too many things interested me.

Mm-hmm. Too many boys.

I was in graduate school

in Denver,
studying archeology.

Someday, I wanted
to go to Turkey

to see the lost cities
of Ephesus and Troy.

Really?

Why did you leave
your studies?

My mother got sick,

and Abby.

uh, my sister, was
already married,

so I left school to be
with her until she died.

I'm sorry.

And then,

before I knew it, I
was swept off my feet,

and now I'm here.

That's so romantic.

When are you expecting?

Florie.

I'm sorry.

No, I didn't
realize it showed.

Forgive us for prying.

Do you need maternity clothes?

I hadn't really
thought about it yet.

Well, our father's a tailor.

We all sew

in the family.

Choose the fabric,
and we'll make you

something. Uh-huh.

Thank you.

Thank you so mu thank you.

You're welcome.
It's our pleasure.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

Ooh, the wind's turned.

Coming out of the north.

I made friends with two girls
from the work crew today.

They study butterflies,
and I was thinking

I could take them for a drive
in the mountains sometime.

Japanese?

Well, they're American.

Those Americans
who look Japanese.

You blame them for
Pearl Harbor, for Daniel?

I'm not as stupid
as you think.

I know they're not the same
people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

They kept our crops going
the past couple of years.

I never said you were stupid.

And I never said
I disliked them.

I just said they were
Japanese, that's all.

And you keep your distance.

Look, I got a lot
to do around here.

I got to keep this place
going pretty much on my own.

I don't go into the fields to.

to socialize.

Rose and Florie
both went to USC.

Can't tell you how good it
is to talk about something

other than crops
and the weather.

I bet.

Thank you, Lord,
for your gifts,

and may we be ever
mindful of your love.

- Amen.
- Amen.

Pass the taters.

Put your napkin
on your lap first.

Would you care
for a roll, Livy?

Thanks. Ray?

I'm considering beans
in the north field.

- Are you?
- Mm.

Price of beans can't
go anywhere but up.

Yeah.

Well, what do you think?

I've been thinking
about about Troy.

Troy who?

City of. The lost one

over there in Turkey.

Turkey?

Uh, Homer wrote
about it in the Iliad.

No one knew if there
really had been such a city,

or if Troy was merely

a myth until an
archeologist found it.

How do you lose a city?

Under the sand.

They, uh they had
to excavate it.

Well, I'll be.

We could've. we
could've dug it up, Ray,

with the Claw.

So, Ray, are you going to
plant some beans this year?

If you think we ought to.

Good night.

Good night.

Abby?

Abby?!

Abby!

Oh.

Whoo!

Franklin, it's ok, shh.

Is everything all right?

Uh, no.

What? What's
happened? Is it father?

No, he's fine. It's Kent.

They shipped him out.
He left last week.

Oh, hon, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's worse than
I ever imagined.

You're out in the
middle of nowhere.

There are more people
around than you'd think.

We haven't heard from
you in almost a month.

I know. I've just been.

getting adjusted, I guess.

Liv, that skirt is
too small for you.

Uh.

Come inside, come inside.

I want you to
move back to Denver

and stay with me.

Abby, how could I do that?

How could you not?

You're not having your
baby on a beet farm.

I need your help.

With Kent overseas
for who knows how long,

I'll go mad in
that house alone.

You've no ideia
how lonely it is.

I used to feel that way.
when I was caring for mother.

I would just sit there waiting

for those minutes
a day she was awake.

It wasn't fair
for Daddy to drop

the entire burden of
caring for mother on you.

I had my hands full with Kent.

But we'd have such
a good time now, Liv,

just the two of us.
until Kent got home.

Ray.

Look who's here.

This is my sister, Abby.

Uh, nice to meet you.

Hello.

Welcome.

What? Rain.

All anyone talks
about is the weather.

Livy, when are
you coming home?

What about the baby?

I'll baby-sit.

You can go back
to school. Why not?

Father's satisfied.
You're married.

There'll be no baby
born out of wedlock.

There's more than one way
to work the rumor mill, Livy.

A few well-chosen words
among the gossips at church.

What do you mean?

The Denver ladies
will be tripping

over themselves to
offer you sympathy.

Who knew he drank
or had that temper?

Can you image raising
a child in a home

like that? No, that's not Ray.

So?

Ray? No.

Ray's the most gentle
man I've ever met.

This has nothing
to do with him.

It's about doing
what's best for you.

Any word from Edward?

Mm, no.

Livy, you had so many plans.

No one deserves to stay married
to someone they don't love,

especially not you.

Give my love to father.

I will.

Does he ever ask about me?

Yes, often.

You're a terrible liar.

Will you mail
this letter for me?

Sure, hon.

Bye.

Love you.

Mm-mm.

# Cheeks of rose #

# Tiny toes #

# Has our little baby #

# Eyes of blue #

# Fingers, too #

# Cunning all as may be #

Hi.

Hi.

You were singing.

What was it?

It's just a song
Daddy'd sing to us kids.

I was trying to remember it
so I could sing it to the baby.

My sister wants me

to go back to
Denver to deliver.

in the hospital.

Where is she?

She left already.

I'll make some lunch.

Swallowtail.

Probably a Western Tiger.

Those spots.

The spots on the
wings are beautiful.

False eyes.

Oh, Florie, did you get it?

Got it.

False eyes confuse its enemy.

Moths have them, too.

How can you tell

a moth from a butterfly?

Moths rest with
their wings spread.

Butterflies, with
their wings together.

And more often, moths have

protective coloring
so they blend in.

Butterflies are bold.

Just look at some of the
species we've found. See?

Colors.

Mm.

What is this?

That was strictly

for our observations, Florie.

Stop fussing.

Perfect.

Florie.

Look! Look!

Uau, this is nice.

After your second baby.

What's your husband's
favorite color?

I don't know.

What's yours?

Blue and red.

Like the false eyes
on a swallowtail.

Yes, exactly.

How's this? Ooh, I love that.

Oh, good.

Father makes the
finest suits, Livy.

Uh it would be
wonderful if you

could come meet our parents.

Would you please not
handle the fabric?

I'm going to buy this.

Are you with these people?

Yes, I am.

Well, if they could get
on with their business,

management would
appreciate it.

What else do we need here?

# They asked me how I knew #

# My true love was true #

# I, of course, replied #

# Something here inside #

# Cannot be denied. #

Germans.

Those are German POWs.

We'll do a fitting soon.

Yes.

Bye, Livy. Bye.

Thank you, Livy.

See you.

Oh, my!

Oh.

I was getting worried.
Sorry I'm late.

I found the dugout. the dugout
that Martha was talking about.

Look, arrowheads.

Livy, I don't mean
to disappoint you,

but my granddaddy owned a gun.

For sure, he didn't
use a bow and arrow.

No, I know that, but
he or your grandmother

were interested
enough to collect them.

Look. A whole jar of flints.

Someone in your family
was a budding archeologist.

Look at this one.

I so wish father could
have done this himself.

He's the expert,

but he hasn't been
well since the move.

They took his work

and and our house.

Still, he says,

we must prove our loyalty.

We must show them we
are good Americans.

He buys war bonds.

Florie.

Mother's no better, Livy.

She made us clean the house.

Stop.

We had to sell our
house for half its worth,

yet my mother insisted we
clean it for the new owners.

We even waxed the floors.

I still don't understand why
you're so angry about that.

Of course we wanted to
present a clean house.

It was stolen from us, Rose.

You know why there are so
few young men at Camp Amache?

Why?

They were drafted.

The 442nd Regiment
fighting in France.

Enough!

And Rose is like our parents.

Always proper, always good.

Thank you, Livy.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Livy.

I've met someone.

Florence!

We met on one of the farms.

He was guarding the
German POWs working there.

He gave me this.

Oh.

It belonged to his mother.

You must be very
special to him.

He tells me I am.

Florie, we have to get back.

Rose is just jealous.

Um, but I want
you to meet him.

- Will you?
- Of course I will.

Good. Thank you.

What's his name?

Walter.

Bye, Livy.

Bye.

Bye, Rose. Bye, Livy.

Thank you. Bye.

Why on earth did
you bring him up?

No! No!

What? What-what's wrong?

My artifacts from the dugout.

- What are you doing?!
- Just cleaning out the shed.

Where is the burlap bag?

What did you do with it!

Livy.

It was near the
bottom of the pile.

It hadn't caught fire.

Livy, this is a working farm.

If something doesn't have
a use, I throw it out.

I thought it was trash.

It's not trash. It's history.

It's your history.

I'd do anything.

I'd do anything
to make you happy.

I know.

I know that.

Dear Livy, if you like
junk, you'll like the cellar.

Be careful. It's
dusty down there.

Higher, there. Wait, um.

I'm not sure why we're putting
an old ox yoke inside the house.

It was probably that very
yoke your grandfather used

to first break this land.

Yeah, well, it's
about to break my back.

I want to show you the family
history that means the most to me.

I let him talk me into a deal.

If I'd stay behind
and work the farm,

he'd join the navy.

Landlocked his
whole growing up,

he was always
dreaming of the ocean.

I was the oldest.

I should have gone.

Remember, your phone
is ring-ring-ring.

Come on, Daddy,
let's get to Wilson!

All right, Let's go.

If you hear only ring,
that's Miss Paulson.

Ring-ring is the McGregors.

Ring-ring-ring,
that's your signal.

Hello.

We're talking
on the telephone!

Hey, everybody it's Hank here!

It works!

Hi, Aunt Livy!

You want to come in?

All right. Come on! Come on!

It's getting cold out here.

Come on, Franklin.

Hi.

We don't have
animals in this house.

Get out! Get out!

Get out now! Get out!

Get out!

It's just for tonight. It's
terribly cold out there.

I grew up here.

I ate at this table.

For all my growing up,

my mama never let
a dog in the house,

and I won't either.

He'll freeze.

This came for you today.

To Livy Dunne.

I'm guessing he didn't
know you were married, huh?

I'm taking the night
shift at the beet factory.

It's something I sometimes
do this time of year.

Don't bother waiting up.

I didn't know what
you had for breakfast,

because I've never
been up that early.

But I made you some
eggs and some oatmeal.

There's no need.

Just plain eggs. There's
no onions or peppers.

Ray, wait.

I'm sorry that I let
Franklin in the house.

I did not realize what an
insult that would be to you.

With all the other animals in
that barn, that dog'll be fine.

I have something
I want to tell you.

My first day here,

I looked in your dresser.

I can't even
explain why I did it.

I'm sorry.

You could've looked in
there anytime you wanted.

I got nothing
to hide from you.

There was a watch.

I could hear it ticking.

I've never seen you carry it.

It was my father's.

Sometimes I wind it up
when I want to remember him.

I remembered how good
he was to my mama.

Kind of husband I want to be.

First day I.

wound it up for
no good reason.

Just for luck.

Ray, I made a mistake.

Which mistake
would that be, huh?

Being with him or marrying me?

Would it be easier if I left?

Is there anything you
like about me, Livy?

Hi, Chester.

Mama, it's Aunt Livy!

Hi.

Hi.

Oh, Ruth was just

talking about you.

And here you are.

It's like you read my mind.

See, we don't
need a telephone.

Yes, we do.

I was thinking
of you, too, Ruth.

I was wondering if you
wanted to have this dress.

As big as I am now,

I can't imagine ever
fitting into it again.

The hat comes with it.

Can I try it?

Go on.

Did Ray tell you.

I don't know the details.

He and Hank had to go over

to the beet factory.

Why don't you come
in and sit down?

For months I've.

I've written the
father of this baby.

I thought he died.

I didn't realize.

No. He he's a
flight instructor.

He never went overseas.

We met on furlough.

And for months, I've.
written him these letters.

I know it was wrong.

For the longest time,
I didn't hear from him,

and as long as I
didn't hear from him,

I could imagine
that he wanted me.

I finally got a letter.

"Congratulations, Livy.

"You're a wonderful girl.

"And I only hope you find
the father of this baby,

because I sincerely doubt
that I'm responsible."

I know that I've hurt Ray.

My sister wants me

to go back to Denver
to have the baby.

Might be best if I
leave after Thanksgiving.

When Ray loves a person,
it's with his whole heart.

Losing our baby brother to
the war nearly killed him.

If you're planning on
leaving, do it soon.

You know, there's one thing

I've never heard you say.

And that's how
you feel about Ray.

Mama?

Livy? Livy.

It's all right.

What happened?

Calling out.

Calling out for your mama.

After Mama died,

I was so lonely.

I gave my life away,
just to be held.

By a stranger.

How could I do that?

Ray.

you are such a good.

Thank you. Thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Oh, it was so kind of you
to bake us a pie, Livy.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Livy tells me you're
from California.

Yes, we are.

I've never been to California.

Livy, can we talk?

I've never been to Colorado.

Um, do you think you
can meet my boyfriend

two weeks from Saturday?

Perhaps, uh,

we could go for a drive

just to get away from here

for the afternoon.

All right.

What time?

How's noon? I'll
pick you up here.

Oh, no. Um, not here, Livy.

Uh, on the road,

by the grain elevators.

All right.

Thank you, Livy.

I'm grateful for all
of you, of course,

but I'd also like to pray that
this war will soon be over.

And I'm thankful for
the harvest this year.

God's been good to us.

I'm thankful that the baby's

coming and I'm going
to have a cousin.

I'm grateful that Daniel's
seat beside me isn't empty.

I've.

I've learned more about love.

in my six months
with this family

than I did in the 25
years in my father's house.

I have.

I have received love here.

And I have received
forbearance.

And I thank you.

I will always remember you.

Everyone of you.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Amen.

Let's dig in.

Ray

I, uh, have to go say
good-bye to the girls.

Oh, that's all right.
He can stay if he wants.

It's awful cold.

When you come out here,

I know you saw
this as an agreement

between your daddy
and Reverend Case.

Marrying wasn't your ideia.

I know you may have your
mind set on leaving, but.

I can't let you go without
telling you how I feel.

I've fallen in love with you.

And I love that baby.

For me, you're the best
thing that's ever happened.

Livy, you're a fine
and talented woman.

You're a pitiful cook,

but that doesn't matter.
I can do the cookin'.

I know you had your heart set
on going to faraway places,

but there's a
good bit of history

right here in Otero County.

If you like Indian
canyons and dugouts,

I'll help you find them.

You can dig around
all you want.

Sound like I'm trying
to sell you something.

That day, when the
preacher married us,

I forgot the ring.

I have one now.

Ray, the truth is, I don't
know if I deserve you.

How do you know
this could work?

I know, because.

someday you're gonna
forgive yourself.

Hi. I'm so sorry I'm late.

Hi.

I knew you wouldn't
let us down.

Um, Livy, this is Walter.

Hello. So nice to meet you.

Um, where-where do you.

Oh, uh, we thought
we'd go south

where we saw the Swallowtails.

That's almost to New mexico.

Walter's on leave

and he's got a
cousin down that way.

I thought we could

drop him off.

You'll freeze.

It's fine.

Walter's from Idaho.

He's tough.

Um.

Well, uh, let's get going.

We have a long drive.

Are you insane?

What are you talking about?

What did he promise you?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Florie.

I've seen him
on the work crew.

Did you make his uniform?

If you'd rather not take
me and Walter for a drive,

you should just let
us out here, Livy.

Florie, stop it!

You stop it.

You're just jealous
because he loves me.

If he loves you,
why would he leave?

As soon as this war is over,

he'll be free.

If anyone finds out

you helped this man, you and
Rose will be accused of treason.

You could go to prison
for the rest of your lives.

Florie, that uniform
ties him not only to you

but to your family.

To your father
and your mother.

Father and mother have
nothing to do with it.

Nor does Rose.

Listen to me. you're
going to go home,

you're going to burn
every scrap of fabric

left from that uniform.

You're going to
take that bracelet,

you're going to
throw it into a field.

Walk away, Florie,
and never look back.

You're lonely,

and you're reaching out for
something to make it better.

But you can't do this.

You'll be paying for it
the rest of your life.

Florie?

Get out of the
truck. both of you.

Tell him that it's safer if
you don't travel with him.

It'll be safer if
you travel alone.

It's ok. Get down.

Come here.

Come here.

Come here. Sit. Stay.

Stay.

Walter, let me

be frank with you.

You'll never make it across
the border dressed as an MP.

Nein.

Come with me.

This way.

My husband's room is
right up these stairs.

Open the wardrobe and
put on some clothes.

Leave the clothes that
you're wearing on the floor.

My husband will be
home any minute. Hurry.

Come on, Franklin.

Listen.

Florie loves you.

Soon this war will be
over and you'll be free.

If you leave now,
how will you find her?

Do you have
something to drink?

Bitte?

Yes. I can make some coffee.

Come on, Franklin.

Wilson operator.

Operator, could you
please connect me

to the sheriff's department?

One moment, please.

Sheriff's Haynes.
Can I help you?

Sheriff, this is Livy
Singleton, Ray Singleton's wife.

Yes, ma'am.

I want you to know
that an escaped POW

has just stolen my truck and
is now headed down Route 22.

He should be running out of gas
about the time he hits the bridge.

He's unarmed, so
please don't hurt him.

Thank you, Mrs. Singleton. We'll
put someone on it right away.

And officer, I'm in
labor. I need some help.

Oh, oh.

Livy?

What in the world
are you doing?

Getting ready for our baby.

Our baby's coming! Our baby.

I'll send Martha right over!

Hurry!

Thank you, Doctor.

Hey there.

# Cheeks of rose #

# Tiny toes #

# Has our little baby #

# Eyes of blue #

# Fingers, too #

# Gotta love this baby. #

Aw!

Thank you so much.

This is for you.

What?

Butterflies of America.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

That's right, Danny.

This was your
granddaddy's watch.

And someday it's
going to be yours,

but in the meantime, I'll
just hold on to it for you.

We got to get going.

Your mama's set
on a treasure hunt.

It's not a treasure hunt.

It's his first
archeological dig.

For arrowheads, right?

Ready?

Come on, let's go.

Let's go.

We're going to fly there.
