All language subtitles for Not Wanted

Ahh!

Oh.

My baby.

Give me my baby.

But he's mine.

He's my baby.

Alright. What's going on here?

You still insist that's your baby?

No.

I guess I made a mistake.

'Sally Kelton'.

Is that your married name?

I'm not married.

Take the child home.

Be here at 3.30 tomorrow.

The D.A. handles kidnapping cases.

Blue eyes.

Five foot two.

Hundred and ten pounds.

Is the governor here yet?

Ten years .. for talking to myself.

"Oh, dear God."

"How did I get here?"

"How did I get here?"

Hi Pop!

Sally, come here. Quick.

Did you bring the bridging tape?

Gee, Pop. I forgot it.

We'll never hear the end of it.

That you Sally?
- Yes, Mom.

It's about time.

Gee, it's been a beautiful day.

How long do you think it takes to
boil potatoes? Ten Minutes?

I forgot them, Mom.

That's fine. It's a wonder you
even remember to come home.

Did you bring the stuff for that pipe?

No. Of course you didn't.

Too busy tearing around with a bunch
of good-for-nothing hoodlums ..

To ever gave your mother and
father one single thought.

Let me tell you ..
- I'm sorry, Mom.

So I forgot it.

I'll go out and get it now but
do you have to keep at me?

If I don't, you'll end up like the rest
of the little snits you run around with.

I've been on my feet since
six-thirty this morning.

All I asked for was a pound of potatoes
and something to plug that pipe with.

But no.

You got more important
things to think about.

Well let me tell you
something young lady.

You can eat stew without potatoes.

And you can sit under a leaky ceiling ..

For the rest of your life
as far as I'm concerned.

You just don't want to help me.
- That's not true Ma, and you know it.

So I forget things once
in a while. Well ..

Do you have to keep nagging at me?

If I've nagged at you
it's for your own good.

Because I don't want you to slave round
a kitchen for the rest of your life.

Because I want you to meet a respectable
man who can do things for you.

How can you hope to get anywhere hanging
around with a lot of drugstore idiots?

Maggie, why don't you leave her alone?

I get so I can't hear myself think.

You haven't had a thought in
your head for the last ten years.

So just keep out of this.
I know what I'm doing.

"Skip a beat."

"And hit it."

"Just do it."

"You won't regret it."

"Hit it."

What are you looking at?

"Hit it again."

Fun, isn't it?

"Nothing matters. Just you do it."

"Da da .. dada."

"Bup, bup, bup baa, bup, bup."

"Be bap, be bap, be bap."

"Yep."

Hi.

Hello.

Don't you remember me?

I'm the one that sold you
that classy number.

On you it looks good.

Sure.

I'd like you to meet
some friends of mine.

Sally Kelton and Bill Aikens.

How are you?

Oh yeah. Why don't you sit down with us?

Sure. Take ten. Have a beer.

Okay.

You'll excuse us.

We've simply got to see some
friends of ours across the way.

Smoke?
- No thanks.

You come here often?

Oh no.

These kinds of places bore me silly.

I only came tonight because Bill
and Nancy just insisted I come.

What do you do?

Well .. if you must know, I work here.

I work in the caf� next door.

It's really all one place.

So you see, it's kind
of old-hat to come here.

Then, why do you?

Well.

I was sort of curious to see
if you could really play.

The last one we had was awful.

Can I?

Gee, you were terrific!

How old are you?

Around twenty.

That's what I thought.

You think fast, don't you.

Hmm. No.

I don't think at all if I can help it.

Look, I've got to get back.

Anything in particular
you'd like to hear?

Any old thing will do.

Okay.

You asked for it.

"How old are you?"

"Around twenty."

"That's what I thought."

Hello.

Hello.

I thought you might like
something hot to drink.

Of course, it's kind-of cold now.

Thanks.

Hey!

Where have you been?
I didn't see you around yesterday.

Well, Tuesday is my day off.

What do you do on your day off?

Nothing much.

You're a funny kid, you know.

You really liked the way I was
giving out just now, didn't you?

It was the best I ever heard.

You don't get to hear much of
anything good around here.

When I visit Trawler-Wood ..

I used to go down the street to the
man who owns the record shop and ..

Bribe him to lend me a few
good records once in a while.

Gee, that was something.

Then one day the machine
went blowy on me ..

And scratched up a few
records and that was that.

And?

Oh, nothing.

I must sound kind of crazy.

No.

You don't.

I used to think I was going to be the
greatest piano player that ever lived.

Really set the world on fire.

What happened?

What happened?

Listen honey, piano players
are a dime a dozen.

Everywhere I went there
were guys like me ..

Who wanted to play great piano
and thought they were going places.

I met them all.

Just a big family of little failures.

Oh, you'll make it.
I just know you will.

What are you doing tonight?

Nothing much.

Why?

You want to meet me
after I get through here?

Grab a bite somewhere?
Say about 11.30?

Fine.

Okay.

A nice kid.

Sure.

Hi, mom.

Did you bring the aspirin?
- Yes.

My head's killing me.

Gee. I'm sorry, ma.

Here honey.
- Thanks.

What's your hurry?
You going someplace?

Well, Nancy and I thought we'd
take in a show after dinner.

Thought we'd take in a late show.

Why don't you stay home once
in a while and get a nice rest?

I say. Why don't you stay home once
in a while and get some sleep?

I get plenty of sleep, ma.
I feel fine.

Yes. You feel fine now
because you're young.

In about five years ..

You'll suddenly fall flat on your face
one day. Don't say I didn't tell you.

Are you listening to me?

Yes, ma. But I've got to get dressed.

Sally.

Would you take those plates into the ..

Pull that dress up.

Oh, ma. Don't be silly.

I was only trying it.

Pull it up, and keep it up.
It's disgusting.

I'm not going to have you
running around half dressed.

What are you thinking about?

That you'll be on a train
in a couple of hours.

And I'll miss you.

Miss me over here.

Capital City sounds so far away.

Will you be there long?

I don't know.

Depends on how I feel.

I guess I always have to keep on the go.

Someday I'll get someplace.

Where can I write you?

23 Wardlands Street.

A friend of mine found a room for me.

If you're ever there, look me up.

Will you miss me too, Steve?

Sure I'll miss you.

Alright, young lady.
Let's have a little talk, shall we?

Is this your car?
- No, sir.

Well, whose is it?
- My girlfriend's.

Her brother's, that is.

Oh I see. Did you ever have a ticket?

No.

Where do you live?

A couple of blocks from here.

License?

I left it at home.

What's your name?

Sally Kelton.

No license ..

Driving fifty miles an hour ..

That's pretty good.

Your folks let you do this often?
- No. They don't even know about this.

Please, officer.

If you'll just let me go this time
I promise I'll never do it again.

I tell you what I'll do.

I'm going to personally deliver you home
and give you all a piece of my mind.

Now, go ahead.

Alright, Mrs Kelton.

I hold you and your husband responsible
for her behaviour from now on.

But if it ever happens again
I'm going to book her.

You watch your step.

Well, go on.

Say it.

Say it!
- Stop it, Sally.

Don't, Harry. Leave her alone.

It will keep until later.

Let's go back to bed and
try to get an hour's sleep.

Here. Stick this under your back.

Go on.

Thanks.
- It's okay.

I hope it doesn't smell too 'gamey'.

I have been on a fishing trip.

I caught a couple of real beauties.

I've got them up there in the bag.

It just smells fine, thanks.

By the way, the name is Drew Baxter.

What's yours?

Mine is Sally Kelton.
- Sally Kelton.

A nice name.

Where you going?

I'm going to Capital City.

Same here. That's my home town.

Gee, I hate to bother you but ..

It's a pleasure.

I was wondering.

Do you know of a room I could get in
Capital City that isn't too expensive?

A room?

Yeah. There's a pal of mine.
Name of Mrs Nigh over on East Street.

She runs a pretty nice place.

I had a friend of mine staying there
once. I never caught him scratching.

Mrs Nigh.

She's a pretty good old dame.
- Oh, thanks a lot. That's ..

You alone?

I mean ..

You know. No friends
or relatives in town?

Oh, I have some relatives
and some friends but ..

But, I don't want to
just barge in on them.

I see. Sure.

Look .. I've got an idea.

Don't get me wrong. If you're no
doing anything tomorrow night ..

How about a meal and
a 50-cent guided tour?

Well, that's awfully
sweet of you, but ..

Why, I have another engagement.

Ah swell.

Okay.

But if you are ..

If you're at a loose end,
well give me a buzz.

Irving 2-8-4-2. I'm at the
Gas-A-Teria center.

The what?

You know: a 'Gas-A-Teria'. A drive-in.
A serve yourself sort of thing.

You know .. a gas station.
- Oh.

I manage the place.

Hey, bud.

Yeah?

Is there any part of this that
will keep until tomorrow?

Oh yeah, sure.

Great.

Sally.

Hello Steve.

I'll bet you're surprised to see me.
- Yeah.

What gives?

Oh Steve, isn't it wonderful?

Here we are!.

So. Aren't you glad to see me?

Yeah, I'm glad to see you.

Only isn't this kind of crazy?

What do you mean, Steve?

Well, what's it all about?

Well I ..

I left home.

I couldn't stand things the
way they were anymore.

Wait a minute.

You mean you just pulled
up stakes for good?

Yes.

What are you going to do?

I'll get a job.

I got a room this morning.

Only a few blocks from here.

So we'll be able to see each
other all the time now.

Steve, you ..

You don't seem very glad to see me.
- It isn't that, Sally.

I just think it was a whacky
thing for you to do.

Leaving your folks.
Traipsing way up here.

I'm busy. I've got a
million things to do.

I won't have any time to spend with you.

Gee, Steve.

I'm sorry to bother you.

I just wanted to be with you.

You said, if I ever came
this way to look you up.

Sally, Sally. Don't get me wrong.

I think the world of you.
You know that, but ..

Well, I didn't expect you.
I have made other plans.

I'm up to my ears on the
deal I'm working on.

I just don't have any
free time. That's all.

Look.

Look, I tell you what.

I'll call you the first free night I
get and we'll do the town. Okay?

Okay.

I'd do it tonight but I'm jammed up with
piano arrangements I'm doing for a guy.

Sure.

Come on. Have a cup of coffee, huh?

Then I want to play
you something I wrote.

No, Steve.

I think I'd better go now.
- Well, have a cup of coffee.

No. I really have to go.

Come on Sally. Let's have it.

What's the money situation?

I can let you have a little.

Thanks, Steve.

I'll be fine.

I guess I'd better .. go now.

What's the phone number where
you're staying? I'll remember it.

Chester 1-3-4-3.

Chester 1-3-4-3.

It's a hall phone. So the
landlady will answer.

I'll be running along.

You will call, won't you Steve?

What do you think?

Goodbye, Steve.

So long, honey.

Well, hello.

What will you have, regular or Esso?

I thought I'd just drop
by and say hello.

Well, come on while I dump
these and we'll have a Coke.

Here is a chair.

Hey, this is a wonderful surprise.

You know, I never expected to
clap eyes on you again.

Get a little sleep?

Yeah.
- Here.

Hey, come on now.
Nothing is that bad.

Oh, Sally.

Here, blow hard a couple of times.
You'll feel like a new person.

Thanks.

That's the stuff.

Drew.

I guess I need a job.

I hate to bother you.

Well, there isn't anyone
else I can turn to.

What's the matter?
Relatives give you the brush?

Yeah, I guess you'd call it that.

Hey. I've got an idea.

One of the kids here is getting married
next week. That makes us short a girl.

How about taking a crack at it?

That sounds wonderful, but ..

Well, I don't know anything
about that kind of thing.

You don't have to. Look pretty ..

Smile when they hand you the dough and
give the right change. And you're in.

And have dinner with me tonight.

Drew, I don't know how
to thank you, but ..

I am going to try awfully hard.

That's all settled then.
You start Wednesday.

But tonight you got to eat, so ..

Well, how about my invitation?

Well.

I'm kind of tired tonight. I think
I'll go home and take it easy.

You understand, don't you?

That's the story of my life, honey.
I always understand.

But look. I am the boss and
you're liable to lose your job.

Ah but .. you are such a nice girl.

I'll let it go this time. Okay?

Drink.

Yes? Who do you want?

Is it for me, Mrs Nigh?

No. He left about a month ago.

You're welcome.

They're all alike, honey.

Never call when you want them to.

Hello .. Granada Club?

May I speak to Steve Ryan please.

Tell him it's Miss Kelton calling.

Hello! Steve!

What?

Oh. He's left already.

No .. no message.

Thanks.

Hey, I want to have a big discussion
with you during lunch hour.

Sure, Drew.

Honey, am I tired.

Brother, this is one day I'll
really be glad to see over.

Here. Devilled eggs. Good for you.

You know.

What I wanted to say to you was, last
Saturday night you gave me the brush.

This Saturday night, you're
not going to get away with it.

Wake up. And go on and eat.
You're getting too thin.

How about me going crazy tonight and
spending three bucks on you for dinner?

Okay.

Swell. But don't wear the family jewels.
This is a strictly delicatessen date.

Now go on and eat.

Watch the smoke in that one.
When it goes through the tunnel.

See the smoke?

Look at this one, Sally.
The light's working at the front.

Right here. See it?

And in the back. See it there?

Wonderful.

Do you want to see a good train effect?

Watch this.

It's night. Now watch the gate.

See .. night.

Day!

Ain't it wonderful?

Oh, you're wonderful.
- I know it.

So anyway, when I when I got back from
overseas the first thing I did was ..

Blow all my cash on
some really good track.

You can't get them to really zip
unless your tracks are the best.

Then I got old man Green who
owns this place to let me use it.

One minute.

We're ready to go.

Hook them up.

And we're off.

Oh no. Not again.

Well here I go. Hold the fort.

Drew!

What is it? Are you alright?
- Yeah. I'm okay.

Funny that.

I wondered when you were
going to ask about that, Sally.

I had a little skirmish
with a mortar shell.

Plastic.

A bad habit of mine.
I never watch where I'm going.

Now you get back up there.

Yes sir!

Just be a minute now.

What about your folks, Drew?

Oh, my mother died when I was a kid.

My father passed away
about three years ago.

Do you have any family?

Yeah.

But, I guess they don't want
any part of me by now.

Look Sally, I don't want to pry but ..

Don't you think you ought to
let them know where you are?

Huh?

Don't worry. I knew on the bus that
night you were pulling up stakes.

Running away from something.

Let's not talk about it now, huh.

Yeah. Okay.

Ready to go now.

Hold on.

There it goes.

Now watch it this time, Sally.
It goes all the way around the corner.

Over there, through the tunnel.

Watch the drop-gate come down
as it comes out of the tunnel.

Watch the drop-gate over there.
There it goes. See it?

It goes all the way down to
make it go around the bridge.

And there's another drop-gate over
here so keep your eyes on it.

As it goes by, a little man
comes out. Watch him.

Here it goes.

Watch it as it goes over the bridge and
gets over it a little man comes out.

There it goes Sally. Look.

Drew.
- Wait a minute.

Would you mind taking me home, Drew?

Okay.

Sure.

It's .. It's just that I'm
kind-of dead on my feet.

Okay, Sally.

Drew, you don't know what
this has meant to me tonight.

Why.

You run a wonderful railroad.

You really think so, Sally?

Yes.

Thanks.

Come on. Home you go.

[ Buzzer ]

Come in.

Come in.

Hello Steve.

Hello.

I've been calling you day after day.

Didn't you get my messages?
- Yeah.

I called you earlier this morning too.

I didn't answer the phone this morning.

I know you're busy and
hate to bother you.

What is it Sally? What is it?

You said you'd call me and you haven't.

Yeah. I know.

I'm sorry. I am really sorry.

I'm all tied up with this stuff.

A guy is paying me for it and
I've got to meet a deadline.

It just isn't going right.

Maybe if you took things easier, Steve.
- No, no. It's not that. It's me.

I can't concentrate.

I've got to get it through
because I need the extra dough.

I'm pulling up stakes at
the end of this week.

Heading for South America.

You're leaving?
- Yep.

I don't know what it is.

I stay in one town too long and I get
stir-crazy. Can't see straight anymore.

So, I'm taking off.

Maybe this time, I'll hit the jackpot.

Steve, you can't mean that. You're
not going to go. You're not leaving.

Look, Sally. That's the way it is.

Maybe it's a sickness with me.
I don't know.

But I got to keep going until I find
some place where I belong.

Then take me with you.

I'll take care of you.

We can be married.

I'll help you find where you belong.

Please, Steve.
It means everything to me.

You won't be sorry.

You couldn't stop caring just like that.

Look, Sally.

You're a good kid.

Someday you'll settle down with five
kids and a husband with a pipe.

But I'm not that guy.

I've got to keep moving.

Travel light. Don't you see?

Maybe I'll live miserably ever after.
But that's the way it is with me.

You never cared anything
about me, did you?

And all the time I thought it was the
most wonderful thing I'd ever known.

The way I thought about you.

I thought you felt that way too.

And all the time you didn't care.

Not even a little bit.

I must have seemed awfully silly
and cheap to you. Mustn't I?

Shut up.

Well, that's the way I feel.

Silly and cheap!
- Shut up!

Now you listen to me.

All my life I've stuck to one
principle: never get involved.

And do you know why?
Because I'm tired, Sally.

I'm tired of rooms like this.

I'm tired of cheap out-of-tune
pianos. I'm tired of joints.

If I'm ever going to get where
I'm going I have to do it alone.

You're forgetting something, Sally.

We were two people who knew
what we were doing. Remember?

I never gave you any phony ideas about
marrying and growing old together.

That's something you got into your head.

If I hurt you Sally, I'm sorry. But I
never lied to you, so get that straight.

Steve.

I've got it straight.

Thanks a lot.

Well, what do you say?

You know, if you walk around with a long
look on your face it goes to your feet.

When your dogs start to bark
you'll feel bad all over.

Hey, will you keep still.

You know, every time I look
around the last few weeks ..

I find you moping in the
corner. It's got to stop.

Oh, let up will you, Drew.
- No, I won't let up.

Another thing. I'm not asking you any
questions as it's none of my business.

If you want to tell me, okay.
If you don't, okay.

But baby, if you got a headache don't
go around giving it to whole the world.

Drew, that's not fair.
- Yes it is. And another thing.

You and I are going to take the day off
tomorrow and go out and have some fun.

So, sharpen yourself up
a little and we'll live.

Besides, you been looking
like a wreck lately.

Well, I like that.
- But cute.

Feel better?

Yeah, I guess so.
- Leave it to old man Baxter.

Gee.

You're terrific.

I know it.

Am I good to women.

Oh, that was fun.

Hey, that's a pretty cute
hat you've got there.

Did you go and blow
seven-fifty on it just for me?

How did you know it cost seven-fifty?

It looks like it.

Hey, you had a bee on you.

Well thanks.

Sally. You know it's the first time I've
really seen you look happy in weeks.

Well, I am happy.

You can 'forget' here.

Right now, I'm thinking about all the
nice things that ever happened to me.

For instance?

Oh.

When I was seven, and my
dad took me to the circus.

Go on. I'm listening.

In high school, for the spring play.

When the curtain came down
and everybody applauded.

I played Elisabeth.

Elisabeth. Elisabeth who?

Queen Elisabeth. The Queen of England.

You mean you played the old dame
that chopped off all the heads?

She had to be stern.
- Ha.

Sally you're a remarkable woman.

Naturally, you were
big stuff after that?

Well, pretty soon
after that I left school.

I had to go to work to help out at home.

I was awfully proud when
I got my first pay-check.

Yeah.

What happened nice after that?

Nothing much after that.

Nothing until today.

Today?

Today is one of the
nicest days in my life.

For me too.

Were you ever stuck on anyone?

Once.

I was kind of soft on a girl, once.

What happened?

Oh, the fireworks died down and
when I got back from overseas, I ..

I just guess I wasn't up
to her speed anymore.

You know, I had kind-of
slowed down a bit.

But I'm ..

I'm glad nothing happened.

Why?

Well.

So we could have today.

You and me.

Just like this.

I'm glad too.

Sally.

Yes, Drew?

Sally, I want to marry you.

Sally.

We could have lots of little gas
stations. A whole chain of them.

Maybe after that, a flock
of kids to make change.

Small change at first.

You could be superintendent of
the railroad and everything.

Oh.

Sally, I ..

I forgot to ask you.

Well, do you think you could ..

Learn to care for me?

I mean, the way I am and everything?

Would you mind it?

Drew, how can you even ask such a thing?

Why, you're the nicest, sweetest
person in the world.

Well that's ..

That's wonderful, Sally.

Well ..?

Come on. What about it?

Gee, Drew. Could you just
give me a little more time?

Sure.

Sure, I could.

Oh Sally. I am ..

I'm crazy about you.

[ Wolf whistle ]

What am I doing?

Sally.

Sally.

What's wrong?

Sally.

I wish he'd tell us
what's wrong with her.

Why don't you come in the parlor
and have a cup of coffee with me?

It'll pick you up.
- I couldn't. Not now.

Well, I always need a pickup
this time of the afternoon.

So if you don't mind, I'll go on back.

But you stay right there now.
I'll be back in just a few minutes.

And don't you worry.

Well, my dear.

I've checked you thoroughly.

You do know what the
trouble is, don't you?

No.

I see.

Well.

You're going to have a baby.

What?

Well now, child.
There's nothing to worry about.

Babies are born every 11 seconds.
Night and day.

You'll be fine.

Now, suppose I send your
husband up to see you?

I have no husband.

It's not ..

Not him.

I see.

You don't have to tell me
if you don't want to.

Oh, please doctor.
No-one must know about this.

You won't tell anyone, will you?

Please don't let anyone know.

If that's the way you want it.

Ah, don't worry.

We'll take care of you.

In the meantime, you must get
plenty or rest and proper food.

So you'll have a nice, healthy baby.

Now, Mrs Nigh knows my phone number.

So don't hesitate to call.

In the meantime, try and get some rest.

And remember.

Take those tablets I have prescribed.

Is she alright, Doc'?
May I go up and see her?

I wouldn't suggest that right now.

Why don't you wait until
she sends for you?

So what's wrong with her?

Well, she's in a highly nervous
condition and needs a lot of rest.

Goodbye, Mrs Nigh.

If she needs anything, call me.
I'm sure she'll be up tomorrow.

I'm sure she will doctor. Yes.

I guess he knows what he's doing, but ..

I'll be phoning to find out how she is.

Oh, you'll be phoning
alright, if I know you.

She'll be alright. Now don't you worry.

Go on home and get some rest.
You're the one that looks sick.

Yes?

My name is Kelton.

Sally Kelton.

Oh yes. Mrs Stone is expecting you.
Reverend Culbertson called.

Will you come with me?

That will be alright, there.

Mrs Stone will be with you in a moment.

Thank you.

You're Sally Kelton, aren't you?

Yes.

Sit down, dear.

Thank you.

How old are you, Sally?

Nineteen.

And where do you live?

Well, I've been living at a rooming
house, but I've checked out of there.

Have you any family?
Are your parents living?

Yes.

But I don't want them
to know about this.

Well, let me ask you something dear.

Don't you think perhaps
you should tell them?

If they knew about this they
might want to help you.

Please, Mrs Stone.

I couldn't bear it if they found out.

I couldn't expect them to understand.

Not this ..

Do you wish to tell me the name of
the father and his whereabouts?

Perhaps we could communicate with him?

I don't know where he is.

He went away. I haven't
heard from him since.

I see.

Well, tell me my dear ..

Have you decided whether you want
to keep your baby after it's born?

I don't know.

Well, we'll discuss that question later.

You'll have every opportunity
to decide for yourself.

And in the meantime,
this will be your home.

For the time being, you'll be asked to
help with the duties around the home.

And you will be expected to abide with
the regulations of the institution.

Thank you, Mrs Stone.

And remember.

We're your friends, not your judges.

You won't let my family
know I'm here, will you?

No, dear. If that is your wish.

Well. As I was saying.

Well. Look at the doctoring we get.

My mother said she never got as much
attention with any of her kids.

My mother says I'm going to have
a boy. Because I'm so short-winded.

She hopes it's a boy. But I don't
care which I get .. if it's healthy.

What do you want?

Irene, I don't know.

What do you want?

I guess I just want the baby.

I don't care whether
he's a boy or a girl.

Oh well.

[ Telephone ]

Hello. Craig's Gas-A-Teria.

Yeah, this is Drew Baxter.

Oh hello, Mrs Nigh.

You what?

Yes, I heard from her today.

Just a second.
I'll read the letter to you.

'Dear Mrs Nigh, please give Dr Williams
the enclosed five dollars I owe him'.

'Also, could you forward the
dressing-gown I left behind'.

'I think of you often, and
how kind you were to me'.

'Merry Christmas.
Sincerely, Sally Kelton'.

Yeah, but does she say where she is?

500 Riley Street, Watertown.

Wait a minute, Mrs Nigh.

500 .. where? Riley Street?

Watertown.

Yep. Thanks a lot, Mrs Nigh.

Will you go in there, please.
- Thank you very much.

Sit down.
- Thank you.

You were asking for someone?

Yes. I'm looking for Sally Kelton.
Is she here?

Is she sick?

What is your name?

Drew .. Drew Baxter.

Are you related to this Miss Kelton?

So she is here.

What's happened?

I didn't say Miss Kelton was here.

I merely asked you that because
you seemed so anxious.

And so troubled about this Miss Kelton.

I'm sorry.

No. I'm not a relative.

You see, we ..

We worked together
in Capital City and ..

I asked her to marry me.

Everything seemed fine and ..

Then she took ill.

After that, she just disappeared.

The landlady gave me the address.

See, it's quite plain.

Yes, I see.

Mr Baxter.

Perhaps you don't know.

But this is a home for unwed mothers.

What?

I'm truly sorry I can't help you.

I wish I could.

Because ..

Because of what, Mrs Stone?

Because this young lady
you're looking for ..

Appears to have someone
who loves her very dearly.

And only a person who
has a great heartache ..

A great problem.

Would run from such a love.

I don't know you, Drew.

But somehow I feel that eventually ..

You will find what you're looking for.

Maybe somebody can use that.

Thanks a lot for being
so kind, Mrs Stone.

Thanks very much.

You were right.

I did find what I was looking for.

Don't mention my name to her.

I wasn't here.

Joan!

Are you awake?

Yeah.

I was thinking.

So was I.

What were you thinking about?

Oh.

What will it be like.

Having a baby.

Joan.

I don't know what I'm going
to do about the baby.

I know what you mean.

You see.

I know I'm going to love him.

But I keep thinking about
somebody else owning him.

Me too.

Oh, Sally.

I'm awfully scared.

I don't know what's going happen to me.

I feel safe here.

Maybe I could stay and help out.

See, I don't have any folks.

Only an aunt.

She'd never understand
what's happened to me.

She's the kind that thinks you ought
to be married to have children.

And do you know something?

So do I.

I always pictured it that way.

Somehow it didn't work out.

You can certainly get a
rotten deal, can't you.

Oh.

Don't, honey.

Don't.

I knew a good guy once.

He was too good for me.

Which one is Irene's baby?

You got me. They all look alike.

They do, don't they.
- Uhuh.

But it's a girl.

And her mother was so sure
she was going to have a boy.

Because she's short-winded.

Hmm.

Did Irene have a bad time?

Pretty bad.

But she sure feels happy now.

She said that's what she
wanted all the time: a girl.

"Well, you can send Miss Kelton down."

"We're already for her
in the delivery room."

Our young lady.

All yours.

Five minutes.

Hello, little fellah.

Are you glad to see me today?

You know.

You look like me, don't you?

I hope you don't mind.

What are we going to do?

Tell me.

You're a smart little fellah.

What do you think?

You see.

They tell me ..

They have to decide whether
you and I stick together.

Or whether we both go our own ways.

Tell me.

Couldn't we try it?

You and I in a cold-water flat.

With no-one to take care
of you while I'm at work.

Couldn't you take care of yourself?

Sure you could.

Wash your own diapers, feed yourself.

Fix your own bunk.

What's the matter?

It'll be alright.

What is there to be sad about?

If I do give him up, Mrs Stone ..

Can you tell me a little about
the people who'll get him?

Only what I told you before, dear.

They will be people of your own
race and your own religion.

They will be a couple who will
give him love and affection.

A good education, and security.

They'll be a husband and wife.

Who have wanted a
child very badly, dear.

And haven't been able to
have one of their own.

I understand.

What would you do if you were me?

Oh. I don't know, my dear.

That's a decision nobody
can make for you.

I've been thinking and thinking.

All the arguments on one side and
all the arguments on the other.

I only want to do what's right for him.

What can I give him?

Love? And love?

And that's about all.

No money. No future. Nothing.

Would you rather wait a little
and decide later, dear?

No.

It wouldn't be fair to him.

I'll sign now.

You'll sign?

Yes.

I don't want him to grow
up without a father.

I don't want him to look
at me and despise me.

He must never hear the word
they call children like that.

I'll sign now.

Sign here please.

I must thank you Mrs Stone for all
that you've done for me and the baby.

It's all part of our job, Sally.

What will you do now, dear?
What are your plans?

I don't know. Get a job, I guess.

Will you go home?

No. I've done enough to them already.

Maybe someday, when
I can make it up to them.

Hello, Sally.

Mrs Stone.

I've got to see Mrs Stone.

What's wrong? Mrs Stone isn't here.

Mrs Stone isn't here?

Sally.

What is it?

I got to speak to someone.

I've got to speak to someone.

I've changed my mind.

I've got to have him back.

I've got to. I should
never have let him go.

Go on.

Day after day, I see them.

They're all around me.

The family is there.
And they're all happy.

And children.

In the street when I go
to work in the morning.

And when I come home at night.

A child and ..

I think of mine.

And I want to scream.

Because I'm sick inside.

Sick, because I want him so.

I've got to have him back.
I've got to have him back!

Sally .. Sally.

Shush.

There, there baby. Shush.

Sally.

Sally.

I have a letter here.

I want to read it to you.

It's from the people who
adopted your baby.

I can't read everything that's in it.

The name they call him
now and things like that.

But I want to read part
of the letter to you.

Listen.

'I wish you could have been with us last
Sunday when the baby was baptized'.

'The minister said he had never
seen a more healthy baby ..'

'Or a more cheerful one'.

'The little thing almost
seemed to understand ..'

'That he was assuring himself
a future place in heaven'.

'And that it was a very
intelligent thing on his part ..'

'To have reserved it so far in advance'.

'He is just as much our child as if
he were our own flesh and blood'.

'And we couldn't love
him more if he were'.

'God has truly answered our prayers'.

Can you see now, that you
have done the right thing?

Sally.

I feel for you.
I understand your unhappiness.

This letter should be of comfort to you.

You've made two other people very happy.

Sally.

You're young.

Your whole life is before you.

You'll marry, have a husband.

Other children of your own.

Long distance?

I want to place a person-to-person call.

Drew Baxter. B-a-x-t-e-r.

Sally Kelton.

Okay. The Assistant D.A.
wants to see you.

I don't know what you done, kid.
But plead guilty.

They'll go easier on you.

So, I presume we all understand
the facts of this case?

And a most unusual situation it is.

Have you anything further
to say, Miss Kelton?

Nothing.

Except I didn't mean to kidnap him.

I just wanted to hold him for a while.

I thought he looked like mine.

As an Assistant District
Attorney, I have ..

No authority to recommend
any course of action.

However, there was a story in the
paper about your arrest last night.

That's how I happen to get a call this
morning from a Mrs Elisabeth Stone.

Mrs Banning knows about this.

I must say that ..

What she told me gave me an idea.

You see, there is a law.

That no-one may be tried
twice for the same wrong.

I think it's a good law.

In a way, you've been
tried once, Miss Kelton.

And you sentenced yourself.

To a bitter memory ..

That only time may erase.

In view of these things, I'm going
to leave it up to the child's mother.

You, Mrs Banning.

To make the decision.

You may drop the charges
Mrs Banning, or not.

As you will.

I think l understand.

It's just the same with my husband.
I'd like to drop the charges.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sally!

Sally.

Wait a minute!

Sally!

Sally. No.

Let me go. Let me go!

Let me go. Let me go!

Sally.

Sally!

Sally.

Sally!

Sally.

Sally!

Wait.

..s.d..
