All language subtitles for Dr Quinn S05E23.eng

I told the lady who runs my boarding
house that you've gotten women to vote

in Colorado Springs.

It wasn't only my doing, Colleen.

And that you thought women should make
up their own minds about things.

Is this discussion in reference to
something specific?

Well, the boarding house has this rule
about going out past supper, but the

library's open until nine.

She won't even let me go out to study.

I imagine she can't bend the rules just
for you.

It's possible that some of the other
girls aren't quite as responsible as you

are. But that isn't fair.

Oh, life isn't always fair, Colleen.

Did you hear the news that Logan
Thompson and Muriel McFarlane are

getting married in the summer?

Really? Oh, that's wonderful.

They're such nice kids. Oh, and very
young.

So their parents asked me to counsel
them.

Well, I'm sure they'll appreciate that.

I could take you out to the Thompson
farm today. I'm going out to Manitou.

on the way.

Oh.

You know, this afternoon's really not
that good for me.

But thank you anyway.

Well, perhaps I could take you out
tomorrow if I have a slow day at the

No.

No, I wouldn't dream of troubling you,
Michaela.

I'd be happy to do it. No.

I will talk to Logan and Muriel the next
time they come into town.

They don't get into town that often.
They haven't been here in weeks.

They will come by the store sooner or
later.

It can wait.

Is the Reverend still nervous about
traveling?

He's all right with what he knows, but
anything beyond that... I only wish I

could help him.

Marjorie?

What are you doing here?

Is that the way to greet your sister
who's come all the way from Boston?

That would have been wonderful, but why
didn't you tell me you were coming? I

wanted it to be a surprise.

It all happened quite suddenly.

Michaela, something wonderful has
happened. Really?

What's that?

I was arrested.

Right here on the front page of the
Boston Herald.

Six Boston suffragists arrested
attempting to vote?

We went to the polls knowing they'd
arrest us. It was so invigorating.

the examples of Elizabeth Cady Stanton,
Victoria Woodhull, and Dr. Michaela

Quinn.

Except now I was never arrested.

Not for that, anyway.

Mother was so embarrassed. We got into a
terrible fight.

And I thought, I'm not a child anymore.
I don't succeed my mother.

Michaela will understand.

So, here I am.

So you haven't resolved your differences
with Mother.

Could I? She's impossible.

Michaela, now I know what it's been like
for you all these years.

How a genteel lady like Elizabeth ever
wound up with you two.

Lovely to see you too, Mr. Bray.

Michaela, let's celebrate.

Have a cigar?

Oh, thank you anyway.

Looking good, Marjorie.

Well, thank you, Hank.

aren't you proud of me michaela now we
can really be sisters

Anything I can do to help you, Michaela,
at the clinic or with the town council,

anything at all, you just say the word.

I've got to go out to Preston's
homestead. He says he's got some more

for me.

Well, it's the fourth time you've
changed the plans this month.

And they say women are fickle.

Your horses are ready. Oh, I hope you
got me a fast one. Oh, I did.

How long is she going to be staying for?

I don't know. But she can stay as long
as she wants to, of course.

Sure.

She always used to be so prim and
proper.

The perfect Boston young lady.

The last vision, she was so changed.

Now, it's just such a surprise.

A pleasant surprise.

And another stepped down before me. So
Jesus said, rise, take up your bed, and

walk. And immediately, the man was made
well, and took up his bed, and walked.

Good. Now, if you could read to me
from... Reverend, why don't you read it

yourself?

Well, I'm talking about Braille, of
course.

No. Well, I've been meaning to learn it.
I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I don't mind reading to him.

I've been working on ideas for a sermon.

There are techniques you can use now to
write with Braille, too. You remember

that friend of Father's, Michaela? Dr.

Pratt. He went blind a few years ago
and... We haven't had reason to hope, to

believe that the Reverend's condition
isn't permanent.

What can I do for you, Grace?

More like what the Reverend can do for
Logan and Muriel.

News is they had a big fight and they're
thinking of calling off the win.

Oh, no.

That's not suitable for each other.

Well, perhaps if you could talk to them,
Reverend.

Oh, yes, of course.

If they come into town, I'd be happy to.
Rise.

Take up your bed.

And walk.

Marjorie, perhaps I could have a word
with you. I made your favorite pie

Reverend. Would you like me to bring you
over, Pete?

Can I get you another cup of coffee,
Reverend?

We're trying to be optimistic and keep
his spirits up. Well, that may be, but

you're all treating him like a patient
rather than your pastor.

Well, he is a patient.

How long have you been searching for a
cure for him?

Some months now. Well, what if he stays
blind?

Is he going to be a patient for the rest
of his life?

Michaela, perhaps the best way you can
be his friend is to stop being his

doctor. Marjorie, you're going to stay
in the new hotel.

I'd be delighted, Hank.

Tell me, are you still employing
prostitutes?

Can't you do anything to control that
sister of yours?

She's quite different from the Marjorie
I used to have.

She's you is what she is.

You before you got some sense in you.

And voting rights are only the
beginning.

Vicki states very clearly.

Oh, Victoria Woodhull. You know Victoria
Woodhull personally?

I'm proud to be her disciple.

She is the perfect example of a woman
who has taken her life into her own

and refuses to live by the restrictions
that men would enforce upon her.

Oh, Makila, wouldn't you agree that true
equality between sexes can only be

achieved when... Women ain't equal to
men.

Excuse me. That's right. Look at you.
You're different.

I second that.

Different should not mean unequal. I see
what Lauren's trying to say. I'm sure

Mr. Bray can speak for himself.

Oh, you bet I can. And I'm sure you'd
agree that women should receive equal

wages for equal work.

Depends on what you mean by equal. A lot
of different ways of looking at that.

And that women shouldn't have to give up
her property just because she's

married. Well, where'd they get that
property in the first place? And because

marriage denies women these rights and
so many others, how can it be seen as

anything other than a tyranny which must
be abolished?

I think what Marjorie's trying to say is
that... Next you'll be saying that

women ought to be able to get divorced
just because they want to. Absolutely.

And love who they will, when they will.

That is scandalous.

Ah, yes.

Free love.

Isn't that what Victoria Woodhull
advocates?

Indeed she does.

She says that complete freedom of
sexuality is an inalienable right.

The same as freedom of religion.

I've been practicing free love my whole
life.

This is disgraceful.

Marriage is a commitment.

That's right.

So you agree with Mrs. Morales?

Well, I believe that men and women
should behave responsibly, whether

married or not.

Oh.

Doesn't your Vicki also call marriage
legalized prostitution?

She's merely pointing out that sexual
relationships without love are no better

than prostitution.

Well, there are many women who believe
in equal rights who won't go quite that

far.

That doesn't sound like the Michaela
Quinn I know.

Marjorie.

Dr. Mike, here's one from Boston.

Thank you, Horace.

She just received a letter from Mother.

I suppose she relished the opportunity
to sling some mud at me. Well, she's not

concerned about you.

What'd she call it?

An affair with a married man?

Yes.

But I'd like to hear your side.

It's not my side, Michaela. It's the
truth.

The gentleman and I have a friendship.

He helped me with a speech.

It's a platonic friendship.

That's all.

Mother seems to think otherwise.

But what do you think?

Do you believe that I would take away
another woman's husband, Michaela, after

what happened with Edward?

Of course not.

Marjorie.

What's this flop you've been putting in
my girls' heads?

They're exercising free choice, Hank. I
thought you supported them. They're my

employees. And you treat them
disgracefully. Look, I didn't take this

your sister.

And I ain't going to take it from you.

Mind your own business.

These women are my business.

All women are each other's business.

Isn't that right, Michaela?

I believe that all women should have the
right to determine their own lives.

the hill outside Grandma's house. And
you spilled blackberries all over your

white dress.

Do you remember Grandma's face?

I didn't think she was ever going to
forgive you.

Well, she suddenly didn't let me have
any blackberry pie.

Well, you look at her.

Brian, you better go back inside.

Oh, now, don't be such a fuddy -duddy,
Mr. Brad. Fuddy -duddy? Well, bloomers

are ideally suited for riding, Lord.

Be coming.

Thank you.

Becoming a man.

Look at this.

Fine example you're setting for the boy.

Brian is old enough to think matters
through for himself.

Why do you insist on regulating people?

Some people need regulating.

Come on. Get out of here, you mangy cur.

Do you want to go face up by the
reference? Yes.

Brian's helping me write a letter to
Logan and Muriel.

Do you really think that a letter is the
best way to handle their problem?

Well, I don't know what else to do.

Why not ride out there and see them?

Ride?

I can't ride. Why not?

You're in good physical shape, and I
imagine you used to ride.

Yeah, you're a real good rider.

I could ride alongside you.

Tell you the way, show you any
obstacles.

It can't be much different from riding
at night.

No, I don't think so.

It would just take some getting
accustomed to.

Riding or to being blind?

Both.

There we go.

Here's the start.

Now I'll ride alongside you and I'll
tell you what's ahead.

You ready?

Which way first?

I think we'll start by going in a
circle. That way you can get your

back.

Just move along.

Forward.

Nothing in our way.

Good. How does that feel?

Good.

Good. To the right, Reverend. To the
right.

Good.

You like to try a little trot? Oh, I
think he does.

Let's go.

You can do it. Good, Reverend.

Keep turning to the right.

Very good, Reverend.

That's wonderful, Reverend.

Keeping up on the financial news, are
we?

Well, I certainly am.

You don't intend on purchasing those
stocks, do you?

I was just about to wire my stockbroker.
You have a stockbroker?

I'm sure you know that Victoria Woodhull
has a brokerage house of her own.

Of course.

But if I may offer some advice.

High -risk investments should be taken
in moderation.

Those stocks may have been doing well
lately, but that's no assurance they'll

continue to do so.

Oh, I quite agree.

That's why I'm selling them.

Sell it.

I've done quite well with them,
actually.

I haven't made a lot of money yet.

But I'm hoping with a diversified
portfolio to be able to become

independent.

Perhaps you'd like to see my most
successful investment, the Spring

Hotel. My goodness, the town is full of
new hotels.

Hank just showed me the gold nugget.

Found it quite charming.

I think you'll find mine even more so.

And larger.

Use your tactical skills here.

We've been composing a strategy on how
to improve these women's working

conditions.

Sister was saying that we ought to get
at least one break a day.

Oh, Hank ain't gonna like this.

That's true. Hank can be a very tough
negotiator. Well, maybe it ain't such a

good idea.

Oh, it's an excellent idea.

But if you want to end up with one
break, you should demand two or three.

Hank really ain't gonna like this.

Well, he won't have a choice if you all
stick together.

And if he doesn't like it, take the
break anyway.

You mean...

Show him he can't push us around?

Well, if you really want to make a
point, take the whole day off.

How about tomorrow?

I've got the perfect place.

Andrew,

this couple has come all the way from
San Francisco.

Will you let me get my grip here?

Welcome to the Spring Chateau, may I?

Thank you.

You know,

it ain't just taking the day off that
feels so good.

Taking things into your own hands.

You can take charge of your own destiny.

Well, you're intelligent and capable
young women.

You don't have to do that sort of work.

Oh, no, no, Michaela. Just because you
didn't choose their profession doesn't

mean they don't have a right to it.

I'm just pointing out that they have
alternatives.

Like what?

I don't got a family or a husband.

Well, you could get another job.

You could be a waitress. I'm afraid we
haven't any positions available at

present.

I decided to take you up on your offer
to see your hotel.

And you had the intriguing notion of
bringing along a few friends.

If you'd like us to leave... Oh,

no,

no, no, no. Please stay as long as you'd
like.

McKenna, I must say you are looking
extremely well.

Why don't we try a little trot? All
right.

Good, Reverend.

That's real good.

Excellent, Reverend.

Now a little faster.

Why not try a canter?

Oh, my.

Stop!

Stop!

What do you think you're doing?

Get down from there. You're going to get
yourself hurt.

He's an experienced horseman. The man is
blind.

You're the one who's blind.

To your own selfishness.

Selfishness? If the river becomes
independent again, you are going to have

face your own loneliness.

Oh, you know all about that, don't you?
I don't see many men lined up to take

you out.

I could have any man I wanted.

Oh, yeah, of course you could. You just
don't want any, do you? Well, I

certainly don't want a stubborn,
opinionated... I ain't impressed with

words. Oh, you ain't, huh?

You think you can just...

waltz into this town with your fancy
clothes and your fancy ways. Oh, yes.

I heard all about you over at the hot
springs, sitting in there naked.

You're just threatened by powerful
women.

I think a woman should be a woman.
What's wrong with that?

You wouldn't know what to do with a real
woman. I wouldn't. Oh, yeah?

She hasn't been selecting.

She must not have come home last night.
Where could she be?

We'll find her.

I'm sure she's fine.

Good doggy, Wuggy.

Now go on and help yourself.

Go on, take two.

A grown boy like you needs nourishment,
huh?

Have you seen Marjorie?

Have I seen Marjorie?

I'm going to be seeing Marjorie the rest
of my life.

We're getting married.

What?

You're getting married?

I'm not getting married.

Audrey and Lauren.

Not possible.

Have a little.

Looks like she was just stringing you
along to get to your girls.

She ain't gonna get away with it. But
Lawrence, let's face it, he's old.

Well, maybe there's hope for you yet,
Preston.

It is such a beautiful day, Michaela. I
never noticed how blue the sky was here.

And the smell.

Pine and... Marjorie, would you come in
for a moment, please?

You sit down.

No, not you two, Michaela. Please don't
talk to me about marrying Lauren.

Marjorie, under the circumstances, I'm
not marrying him.

Marjorie, please?

I can't help but wonder if you're afraid
of marriage because your first one

ended so unhappily.

This is completely different.

I hope so.

But it would certainly be understandable
if you would resist the idea of

marriage after the way Edward betrayed
you.

How can I marry Lauren?

I hardly know him.

Well, it didn't stop you from being
attracted to him.

Shouldn't you get to know someone for a
little while before you...

Clearly you have feelings for Lauren
that I didn't realize. Nobody could have

been more surprised than I was,
Michaela.

But look at you and Sully.

You certainly didn't expect to become
involved with a man like him, did you?

Well, that's true, but... Our
relationship... It took some

time to develop.

You and Lauren just happened.

He made me so furious.

And then the next thing I knew, nobody
has ever made me feel so

intensely since, well, ever.

Well, these are feelings to be
treasured.

But you can't just do what you did and
move along.

I have no intention of moving along.

I want to spend time with Lauren.

I'm just never going to marry anyone
again.

You mean you'd live together without
getting married?

Marriage is just a piece of paper,
Michaela.

Do you really believe that?

Yes.

I do.

Marjorie, please.

She said that marriage is just a piece
of paper.

Maybe for her it is.

What about for Laura?

You all right? Yes.

Dorothy.

I'm sorry. I just must have lost my
head.

Maybe you found your heart.

Do you love her?

Doesn't make any difference. She don't
love me Did you ask her the whole town

heard but did you ask her I? assumed
don't

Don't assume

You're a good man Lauren

any woman would be lucky to have you

We'd pay for a week's work. That ain't
fair.

We have to do something about it.

We started them on the path.

They have to take the reins of their own
life.

We had a deal.

You're the ones who welched on it. All
right.

We took one day off.

You can take that off our pay.

That sounds like a fair compromise,
Hank.

A deal's a deal, Michaela.

Oh, come on, Hank. We gotta eat. So get
back to work.

Now!

You two, stay away from my girls.

You can't just light a fire under people
and then leave them.

You can't run other people's lives.

Mrs. Morales, I've been wanting to talk
to you. I saw some of Brian's textbooks,

and the way they portray women is far
from satisfactory.

It's so important to let children know
that they have a possibility, that they

don't have to live the role of a father.

Robert,

are you all right?

Dr. Mike, I'm fine.

Except I just found out that Logan and
Muriel have now definitely called off

their engagement.

Maybe it wouldn't have happened if I'd
talked with them first.

I would like...

To try to patch it up.

And I was hoping to take you up on your
offer.

To ride out to the farm with you.

I don't want to impose.

No, no.

Colleen can take care of things here.

If you're sure it's a good time.

Afternoon.

Mr. Bray?

I, uh, heard you were over at the school
giving Mrs. Morales what for.

We had an intriguing conversation.

Yeah, I bet.

I was, uh, thinking... Now, that's your
first mistake.

What are you saying? I can't think
anymore? I'm too old?

Oh, no.

By no means too old. You stay right
there.

I got something to say.

Oh, Lauren, no.

I was hoping... Please, don't.

What? You have no obligation to me.

Well, of course I do.

Marriage is oppression.

You've just been married to the wrong
man.

Perhaps.

Marjorie, I ain't felt this alive in
years.

Neither have I.

Being with you, well, you make me as mad
as a hornet in a hat box.

But you make my head weak and my heart
strong, and I reckon that's about as

as it gets.

It is, but... I want to be with you.

I want to wake up with you, like we did
this morning, and go to sleep with you,

like we did last night.

But we can have all that.

We don't have to get married.

You mean live in sin?

Sin? What sin could there be in two
people loving each other? In giving

themselves to each other because they
want to.

Not because some contract tells them
that they have to.

That ain't what marriage is.

It's just a piece of paper.

No. It's a pledge from your heart.

I have fallen in love.

For the last time.

And I take it serious.

I love you, Marjorie Quinn.

Marry me.

The trail narrows, Reverend. Be careful.

Now we're going to take a bend to the
left here, Reverend.

Further to the left, Reverend.

Left? To the left. Left.

Are you all right, Reverend?

I'm not sure.

Does that hurt?

No, I'm all right.

I'm just so, so stupid.

What did I even think?

How could I even consider doing this?

Please, please, don't try to get up. I
told you I'm fine.

But I'm blind, Michaela.

Blind people do not ride horses.

I can't.

I can't do this.

I mustn't let this discourage you. No,
no.

You take me back to town.

All right.

It's not too far to walk.

Just stay right here. I'll get the
horses.

Here I am, Reverend.

Mr.

Quinn, I have been looking for you. Mrs.
Morales, your sister made a disruptive

visit to my classroom today.

I told her that she is not welcome,
especially when she spread such

but she insisted on telling the children
about this Mrs. Woodhull.

I suppose it can't hurt the children to
know what ideas are being expressed in

other parts of the country.

can hurt them.

Their minds are young, they are
impressionable, and your sister is a

influence. Surely you would not want
your son or daughter to act as she does?

Well, Marjorie's a very enthusiastic
person.

Sometimes she does get carried away. If
she interrupts my classroom again, I

will have to go to the town council.

A woman should be able to make her own
choices about her sexual behavior.

Marjorie!

I was just having a talk with Colleen.

This place is beginning to feel like a
woodshed.

How can you be this way?

Michaela, you were always a bit of a
prude.

I'm not just talking about what she said
to Colleen.

Although she is my daughter. And she's a
grown woman. She's an impressionable

young woman.

And I'd rather not have her influenced
in matters of intimacy by someone who's

as... As loose as you are.

Loose? That only goes to prove that
someone other than you should be having

these discussions with her.

Oh, no, you don't. You don't change the
subject. This is about you. It's not

about Colleen.

You light fires and then you walk away.

Lauren is deeply upset.

Look, what occurred between me and
Lauren is our business.

What about the Reverend and those girls
across the street?

Everyone's life is worse off since you
started meddling in their affairs.

You're just... Jealous.

Jealous. Face it, Michaela. You've
changed.

You used to be the crusader here, but
you've stopped.

I've taken your place.

That's what's bothering you.

That's right. Walk away.

It's just what I was talking about. You
start something and then just take off.

Well, you won't have to worry about that
anymore. I'll leave tomorrow.

Good. Good.

She writes to me.

Am I just envious of her?

Sounds like a lot of what you said about
her hit home.

Sometimes the truth hurts.

I'm no longer such a crusader.

I have changed.

Of course you have.

I swear that I wouldn't be working so
hard trying to keep up with her if I

didn't know that.

Doesn't mean it's bad.

It's just that other things are more
important to you now.

Like you and the children.

Don't want to...

Make a difference.

Move forward.

People.

Do that every day.

Right here.

She is such a strong -willed,
obstinate... Quinn.

I expect you to be closed by now.

I am.

This is all Marjorie.

You want to give up on her?

I'm too old to change, Sully.

To change that much.

Well, she's going to be leaving
tomorrow.

We've been lucky, Lauren. We got another
chance at love.

Are you going to have many more chances?

It's just taking these upstairs to pack.

Audrey, please don't leave.

It's best.

Not with this anger between us.

Michaela, that's not our problem.

We're not good together.

We've never been good together.

You're right.

I have changed.

My work, my family.

Well, there's nothing wrong with that.

Seems as if we've changed positions, but
we're still on opposite sides of the

fence.

As we've been all our lives.

Where would you go now?

I'm not sure.

We quit Hank.

Now what?

You're a very brave deputy.

But where are we going to go now?

We've only got a few dollars between us.

This is an organization in Boston that
can help you get your lives back in

order.

How are we going to get there?

I mean, trains cost a lot of money.

Well, if you'd allow me, I'd like to pay
for your train fare and help you get

back on your feet.

You could come with me on the train
tomorrow.

You'd take us all the way to Boston?

I'd be honored.

There's someone there that I should see.

That's real generous of you, ma 'am.

That's what sisters are for.

We can't let Logan and Muriel lose the
chance at happiness together without at

least trying to help.

But we don't have to ride. We can take
the wagon. It'd take just a little

longer. That's true.

But you know what they always say.

You have to get back on that horse
again. And I'll fall again.

No, you won't.

We'll take it slower.

We'll be more careful.

But you're my doctor, for goodness sake.

More important than that, I'm your
friend.

You need to take hold of your life
again.

Brian?

Reigns are on the horn.

Thank you, Brian.

You ready?

Go ahead.

Easy over the tracks here, Reverend.

All right.

If the Reverend got Logan and Muriel
talking to each other, they wouldn't

Is that good or bad?

In this case, good. The wedding is on.

Thanks to the Reverend. Oh, no, I
couldn't have gotten out there if it

been for you and Marjorie.

You try and stop me.

We

don't have to get

married.

Well, at least not yet.

They're kissing.

They're so sweet together.

Well, Colleen, it's wonderful to care
for each other so much.

Being intimate without being married,
that's not something that I would do.

Or I would hope not.

Just because I'm happy for them doesn't
mean that's the way I want to live.

They're still kissing.

I ain't never seen Mr. Bray happier.

Have you, Ma?

No. No, I haven't, Ryan.

Bye. Goodbye.

Thanks for everything, son.

Take care of yourself.

We're always going to be different,
Marjorie.

But I think the world needs both of us.

Don't you?

Yeah.

Both of us.

How was that?
