All language subtitles for Dr Quinn s02e02

What's the matter with you?

What's the girl doing in the pool?

Shut up. I'm in it.

I'm not opening it.

Take a read.

Come back later.

Dorothy?

Lauren.

It's been a long time.

What are you doing here?

What happened to you?

A horse threw me.

I've been wandering around all night.

It took a pretty good fall. I'd be
surprised if something's not busted.

You'd better come in.

Does your husband know you're gone?

He will, as soon as he reads the note I
left.

I'm leaving him.

Lauren.

If you don't offer me a chair pretty
soon, I'm going to be obliged to sit on

your floor.

Oh.

Well, cute.

Well, I better get you over to the doc.

Oh, you got a doctor here in town now?

Sort of.

Oh, I don't think any ribs are broken.

How did this happen?

I told you I fell off my horse last
night.

These bruises are at least a week old.

Oh, that.

The corn crib swung shut on me.

You know, I used to eat here sometimes
when this was the boarding house.

This room was the kitchen, wasn't it?
That's right.

Are you from here, Mrs. Jennings?

My sister was married to Lauren.

What? Was your sister?

Did you know her?

Or she was my patient briefly.

I'm afraid there wasn't much I could do
for her.

There's no need to explain.

And if you're wondering why I wasn't at
the funeral, it's because I didn't know.

Lauren wrote a letter to my husband, but
he didn't want to upset me.

So he didn't show it to you?

I found out two months after Maude was
gone and buried.

She was a good woman. Yes, she was.

Now get dressed now.

I'd like to examine you again tomorrow.

Is that possible?

I don't see why not. I'll be staying a
while.

Thank you, Dr. Quinn.

You're welcome.

You working, Jenny?

You know her?

What's wrong with her?

She said she fell off a horse.

Well, she didn't fall off no horse.

Someone beat her.

I heard about her husband.

As soon as he sobers up, he's going to
come looking for her.

Dorothy?

I'm going out to get something to eat.

I'm in here, Lauren.

What are you doing in my daughter's
room?

Well, the boarding house is closed. I
thought maybe I... Where did you get

clothes? Oh, these are just some of
Maude's old things. I don't think she'd

mind. How would you know?

She was my sister.

Maybe it's you that minds.

Get out of this room.

Lauren. Please, just get out.

I've got no place to go.

You're the closest relative I've got.

I need a place to stay till I figure out
what it is I've got to do.

Why now?

Well, the children are all grown up and
gone.

I ain't been happy for a long time.

What's happy got to do with it?

A little disagreement's no reason to
break up a marriage.

So how it was with you and Maude?

Your sister was a good woman.

We respected each other.

That's all I'll say about it.

Lauren.

Where can I find a broom and a mop?

I'll get them for you.

How long will you be staying?

Good morning.

Good morning.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't know her very well.

Were you close?

Yes, we were.

Until Lauren asked me to marry him.

He did?

When I turned him down, he asked more.

Things were never the same after that.

You have any sisters?

Yes, four of them. All older.

But we weren't very close.

Except for Rebecca, the oldest. She was
15 when I was born.

And we were inseparable until she got
married.

Dorothy?

Do you mind if I ask you something?

You don't have to tell me. You want to
know if he beat me.

He did.

It started after the first child was
born.

It was either them or me, so I took it.

I thought he'd stop once the children
were gone from home.

But he didn't.

Well, he's not going to beat me anymore
because I left him and I ain't going

back.

What's going on?

Somebody's wife is...

Pretty mad.

Goodness,

she's angry.

I feel sorry for the poor fellow.

How sleepy is it?

Mine.

Where are you going?

I will live in my own home from now on.

Please, don't do this.

I'll not be a second wife.

She is my brother's wife.

He's dead now. I must take her into my
TP.

It is our custom, and it's my duty.

You know I have no choice in this.

You may not, but I do.

Maybe I can get Dr. Mike to talk to her.

There's been enough talk already.

How's that?

Snowbird was never one to question our
ways until Dr. Mike came.

Now... All she talks are of new ways,
new ideas.

There's nothing wrong with trying to
better your life.

I agree.

But some of these new ways are not good
for the people.

Sometimes we must choose for the tribe
and not ourselves.

If we abandon our culture, there is no
future.

I got the rest.

My lips are tired.

I can play.

No, no, no, please.

Oh, you can't play and eat cake at the
same time. Clean.

Who wants dessert?

I do.

I'm sorry to bother you, mister, but I'm
looking for someone, and when I asked

in town, they said... Marcus!

Dorothy.

Go away. I don't want to see you. Leave
me alone.

Dorothy, please.

Just listen to me. You can't come in,
sir.

You heard her. She don't want to see
you, Marcus.

Warren? You best just go home now.

You got no business here.

Mr. Jennings, I think you'd better
leave.

Dorothy, please.

I'm... I'm so sorry, darling.

I don't know what got into me.

It won't happen again.

I heard that before.

You never left me before.

And I'm not going back.

Please, Dorothy.

As God and these good people are my
witness, I won't ever do it again.

I... I don't want to lose you.

I need you.

I can't take living without you.

Please get out of my house, Mr.
Jennings.

You don't believe me?

You shoot me right now.

If I ever lay a hand on you again, you
can kill me. Go on, take it.

Take it!

I'd rather die ever than to hurt you
again.

Please just Talk to me Put the gun away

Just you don't have to I'll be right
outside that door

No,

make sure that Lauren

Why don't you play some of the tune?

I don't feel like it.

Come on, Mr. Bray.

You can teach me a new song.

She didn't fall off her horse, did she?

Why'd she lie about it?

Maybe she was afraid.

You think she did something to make you
mad?

There is nothing that any woman could
ever do that would justify beating her.

You wouldn't have angered, would you?

Of course not.

Don't you let any boy or man ever hit
you.

I won't.

Will you tell Dr. Quinn goodbye for me?

You can tell her yourself. I just sent
Brian to go get her.

What'd you do that for? I was hoping she
could talk some sense into you.

I don't expect you to understand.

Well, I don't.

What do I owe you?

Nothing.

You ready?

Dorothy, we started this for the best.

It's going to be all right.

We talked all night long. He's going to
change.

People don't change overnight.

He gave me his promise.

Well, how do you know he'll keep it?

Because he rode all the way here to get
me?

We have a lot of years together.

I've got to give him a chance.

Dorothy, please.

I appreciate your concern, but it isn't
your affair.

You take care.

Don't we have enough well learn to fish
you gotta dig for worms

Here's one.

Tapworms don't count.

Why not?

Fishing rules.

You know that worms are hermaphrodites?

What does that mean?

They have both.

They reproduce themselves by themselves.

They have both male and female parts
together in one body.

All apart.

It's not like much fun.

Well, it's very efficient.

From a scientific point of view. Uh
-huh.

Scientific.

There's some hair by that rock.

An old Indian legend says that man and
woman were once united.

Four arms, four legs, two backs.

And one day the great spirit grew angry
at this creature and took his tomahawk

and cut him apart.

And ever since that day, men and women
have tried to get back together again.

Whenever they can.

Sully, may I ask you something?

What? About Lauren and Dorothy.

You think he's been in love with her all
these years?

It's not the way he looks at her.

Do you think a man can love two women at
the same time?

If you were one of the women, would you
want him to?

Why don't you go on in, saving the
planet?

There really wasn't anything we could do
to stop her. Well, and Dorothy's where

she belongs.

You honestly believe that?

I believe.

It's too late to change things.

But if you could.

Can't. Nobody can.

And you don't know how much I regret
that.

Everyone has regrets, Lauren.

My Maude should have had more.

Gotten more.

She didn't get what she deserved.

Perhaps that's true of you too, Lauren.

Now will you tell me why you brought me
here? I brought you here because of

Snowbird. The people are angry with her.

What does she do?

The problem is what she won't do.

You've got to talk to her.

Do you know why she fought with Cloud
Dancing?

Maybe because of you.

You think it's my fault? Not exactly.

Sometimes you don't know how much you
influence people.

What are you saying, that I'm
responsible?

She said...

Some things are the way they are for a
reason.

You shouldn't be suggesting ways to
change them. It kind of upsets the

order of things.

What do you suggest we do?

First, we gotta get them talking to each
other again.

Don't worry.

Soon I'll bring a horse to Snowbird as a
gift from you to make amends.

I already sent a horse.

And I sent the horse back.

What did he do?

He asked that girl to marry him.

He did?

He did not even tell me I had to hear
from my sisters.

Can a man have two wives?

It's a Cheyenne custom when a relative
is widowed.

He takes her as his wife if no one asks
for her.

Sounds like a better custom for the man
than the woman. That's what I said.

It is good that they are talking.

I think things are going well. Look,
she's snotty.

That is a good sign.

I would rather live alone than be the
grandmother.

All those years we spent together mean
nothing?

The children we raised mean nothing?

Now he wants a younger wife to have more
children.

Isn't it someone else you could marry?

There is.

But I think cloud dancing wants her.
Doesn't want me anymore.

You know how men are.

Yes, I do.

At least I... I think I do sometimes.

Would you share the man you love with
another woman?

Well... No, I wouldn't.

I would rather live alone, like you.

Snowbird, how are you?

I'm done.

What did you say to her?

None of your business.

One

thing

I do know.

Women sure know how to drive a man
crazy.

You sound like a confirmed misogynist.
No, I just hate women, that's all.

Oh, Lauren.

Who'd want to get married these days?

Women acting so crazy, wanting to vote,
wanting to close the saloons, wanting to

do things they ain't meant to do.
They're stirred up, that's for sure.

Go tell them what they're going to do
once they get the ring in your nose.

You can't trust them.

They're always changing their minds.

And worst of all, once they get you
married, they want to change you.

You'll never see me get hitched again, I
can tell you that.

You'll be at my funeral before you'll be
at my next wedding.

You should hear the stories men tell me
when they're sitting in my chair.

It's enough to make you want to go be a
hermit.

You just haven't found the right woman.

You ever been married, Reverend?

Uh, no.

Ever been with a woman?

Oh, now, Jake, that's none of your
business.

Have you?

I'm sorry, gentlemen. That's something
I'm going to have to keep between

the good Lord, and the lady.

Dorothy. I'm going to need some help
getting down.

What happened to

you this time?

Fell off that horse again?

If you don't get a sheriff to arrest
him, I will.

No need for that.

I tried the law before. It never came to
nothing. But it's over now for sure.

He won't be coming after me.

He won't.

Thank you, Lauren.

What will you do now?

I don't know.

I ain't given it much thought.

I guess I need a job.

What can you do?

Well, I like... I like writing.

I've written a lot of letters to the
editor that got printed.

Well, maybe you could start a little
newspaper.

Oh, I don't know about that.

Warren, what do you think?

We get the Denver paper. That's news
enough for me.

But it's a week old, and it isn't about
anyone we know.

Maybe we could put a stack on the
counter.

Sell them for a penny.

It's a foolhardy idea.

Besides, I don't have any room on the
counter.

You do now.

That I straightened up? No.

There's no room there.

Thank you, Dr. Quinn, for being so kind.

Why don't you call me Dr. Mike?

Everyone else does.

What's your Christian name?

Michaela.

Suits you.

Do you mind if I call you that?

No.

No, of course not.

Keep the lock. My boss is dead.

Who is he?

Jennings.

And there's a woman done it. She killed
him.

What are you saying?

Marcus? He ain't gonna hear you because
he's dead.

Marcus! Marcus!

Well, she did it. You gotta do
something.

That's impossible. He was alive when I
landed. Well, he ain't alive now.

And you're the one who killed him. But
this.

He was landing before we sat him.

Got his blood on him.

We've got to lock her up.

I didn't do it. I didn't do it. Let her
go. How do you know I'm lying?

We'll find that out when we have a
trial. Horace, why Denver?

Tell him to send a marshal and judge
right away.

You can't arrest her.

Horace can't. He's been deputized.

I didn't do anything. He hit me and I
ran. I fought back and I ran.

Let go of her. What are you waiting for?

I'm afraid I'm going to have to arrest
you, Mrs. Jennings, for the suspected

murder of your husband.

I don't understand something. Why didn't
you just take the children and leave

him a long time ago?

What was I going to do with no money of
my own and three young children to take

care of?

I can't believe I killed... I can't
believe I killed...

I thought I was just stopping him.

That's all you were trying to do? Just
trying to get him to stop hitting me.

I picked up that skillet because it was
the first thing I could get my hands on.

I hit him once. Just once.

And he stopped?

Damn right he stopped.

I mean, he... He fell back down on the
floor.

And he lay there, holding his head.

Moaning, cursing at me.

I ran out of there while I could. I
jumped on my horse and I rode straight

But he was still alive when you left
him. I think so.

Well, then I don't...

see that you have anything to worry
about.

Why's that?

Because from what you've told me, any
jury can see that it was self -defense.

Oh, Michaela, I appreciate your concern,
but it really don't matter what you

want to call it.

My husband's dead, and I'm going to have
to pay for it.

It is decided.

Tomorrow, Gray Eyes will become my wife.

Did you tell Snowbird?

Yeah.

I asked her one more time to come back
to me.

What'd she say?

She would not answer.

She acts as if I do not exist.

I can't believe there isn't someone else
who will marry Gray Eyes.

If there is, he has to come forward.

I must do this because of my position
and responsibilities.

Even if it destroys your marriage to
Snowbird.

What I want does not matter.

For our people to survive, I must do
what is right for the tribe.

There's nothing else I can do.

Excuse me, ladies.

All right, all right, settle down.

I thought the judge would be on the noon
stage, but he wasn't, so we're going to

have to postpone the trial.

Jake's right.

You're deputized.

You can hear the case.

Me? I couldn't. Gentlemen, I really
think we should wait for the judge.

He's going to say the same thing Horace
would when all the talking's done.

She's guilty.

Everybody knows she killed him. But she
was acting in self -defense.

She's lying.

Forrest, you gotta do it. It's your
duty. But we'd need a jury.

You got one right here. You got me and
Hank.

Warren. Oh, I can't. Why not? Well, I'm
a relative, sort of. It's all right.

There's plenty of good men here. You and
you, you fellas over there, back here.

You can't do this. You have to wait.

Well, she is entitled to a speedy trial.

She's also entitled to a jury of her
peers.

You know, some judges wouldn't allow
women at murder trials.

I'm here as her physician.

Then stop acting like a lawyer.

Let's get this over with.

Um... Ask her her name and if she done
it.

Ma 'am?

I heard him.

My name is Dorothy Jennings.

Did you do it?

I guess I done it.

I mean, I hit him.

She didn't mean to kill him.

She's pleading not guilty.

All right, settle down.

Settle down.

They used to fight all the time.

I could hear them yelling, clear out to
the bunkhouse.

What were they fighting about?

Horace, the jury can't have questions.
You have to.

There you go, acting like her lawyer
again.

Well, I'd be happy to represent her if
she'd have me.

Wait a minute. Here!

No, you wait.

Now, Dr. Mike can do all the talking she
wants.

So can anybody else.

As long as they take turns.

Go on. What were you saying?

Well, they was fighting that night.

Yes, sir, woke me up. They was screaming
so loud.

And then all of a sudden it stopped.

So I went back to sleep.

Couldn't find Mr. Jennings the next day,
so I went to look for him at his house,

and that's where I found him.

Dead on the floor, blood all around him.

First time he hit me, I didn't want to
believe it.

We'd only been married a year.

Why did he hit you?

I forgot to do something.

He flew into a rage.

Are you saying...

He only hit you when you deserved it.

Marcus always thought I deserved it.

He started drinking, and by the time he
was drunk, I hadn't done something

wrong. He'd think something up.

So he was drunk when he hit you?

Yes. Did he ever hit you when he was
sober?

Yes, after the children were gone.

But sober, drunk, it didn't really
matter.

The only difference was how hard he hit.

Now, is there anything else anybody
wants to say before the jury retires to

reach their verdict?

Dorothy Jennings was only defending
herself.

She was afraid for her life that night.

She thought her husband, who had beaten
her many times before, was finally going

to kill her. If Marcus had wanted to
kill her, he'd have done it a long time

ago. All he did was hit her.

Done worse to my whores.

What gives a man the right to strike a
woman when he feels like it?

Only three reasons I know of.

She don't love you. She don't honor you.

She don't obey you.

I'm sorry, Miss Jennings, but you've got
to go back to jail while they decide.

So I guess we're stopping now.

What's gonna happen to her?

I don't know.

But she needs to know that we'll all
stand by her now.

She needs to know we're here for her,
whatever happens.

Have they reached a verdict?

No, not yet.

You need anything?

Maybe you could bring me a cake with a
file in it.

What's on your mind, Lorne?

Nothing.

You always did have trouble with your
feelings, didn't you?

Some things don't change, do they?

Come on, Lauren.

Just this once.

Tell me what's bothering you.

There wasn't a day gone by I didn't
think of you.

Did you ever think of me?

Yes, I did.

Do you know how hard it is seeing you
now, like this?

I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you.

Why'd you turn me down?

I loved you so.

We could have been happy together.

I didn't love you, Lauren.

I was in love with Marcus.

He was exciting. I thought he was going
to be something.

No, I wasn't.

I don't mean it like that.

Yes, you do.

You can't blame me for a choice I made
back then.

I was young. I didn't know better.

Don't you think I used to pray to God
every night that my life had turned out

differently. I know I did

Mrs. Jennings, we find you guilty of
murder in the first degree.

We think you ought to go to jail for the
rest of your life for killing your

husband.

Well, you best lock her up, hold her for
the night. I'll wire Denver

for a federal marshal to come get her.

Well, that's it. I guess we're done
here.

Don't worry, Dorothy.

We're going to appeal.

You'll only be wasting your time,
Nikita.

All

right,

tell me one more time what happened.
What for? The trial is over. We're going

appeal. They're not going to change
their minds.

Men out here don't think they're doing
anything wrong.

Maybe different back where you come
from, but... It's not.

There were a few places women were
allowed to do internships.

I find our hospitals wouldn't have it,
so we all wound up in the county

poorhouses and asylums.

And there were women like you in all of
them.

And in my father's practice, there were
women from the best Boston families who

were always falling down the stairs.

Nothing is going to change unless we
change it.

I want a different world for Colleen to
grow up in.

So do I.

He... He was drinking all day.

He passed out in the afternoon.

Woke up again about 9 o 'clock that
night.

He said his stomach was hurting him.

Wanted fried eggs.

So he ate them.

And then he started spitting blood.

Blood? Had this happened before?

Yes. It got really bad when he was
drinking.

Go on.

Well, I guess I wasn't moving fast
enough, so he started hitting me.

I picked up the skillet, hit him hard.

He fell down on the floor and stayed
there.

I want to exhume his body.

What? I want you to give me permission
to dig him up.

What for?

I want to do an autopsy.

What do you think you're doing,
Reverend?

She has Dorothy's permission.

It ain't right you cutting on a man
after he's dead.

I cut on deceased men and women in
medical school, Hank. And it's the only

that I can prove my theory. She killed
him. It's been decided. We got

I think Mr. Jennings died of other
causes.

And if I'm right, you can't convict
Dorothy of murder because she didn't

him. Of course she did. Everybody knows
she did.

I want to do an autopsy, and all I'm
asking is a promise that you gentlemen

take a look at what I find.

How we know you ain't just giving us
some mumbo -jumbo.

Well, you'll be able to see for
yourself.

And if you refuse, I'll assume it's
because you're either afraid of dead

or the truth.

Which is it?

Don't you share?

What do you want?

I know it's your obligation, and I'll
take her as your wife.

But what if there was another man who
was in love with her?

If there was such a man, he would have
come forward to stick his mind.

He might, if he wasn't worried about
offending a very important person who's

already made a marriage offer.

The choice would not be mine. It would
be hers.

But first, he must ask.

They don't fit you.

It's a very fine horse.

I am pleased you like it.

With a horse like this, you shouldn't
want any other horses.

I agree.

Who would ever want another when you
have this?

If you look at that picture, you'll see
the drawing of a ruptured stomach.

The ulcerations are extensive.

Mr. Jennings drank heavily.

Over time, the alcohol does damage to
most of the major organs.

Stomachs grow thin and the intestines
rupture.

Man can bleed to death in moments.

Here's your cause of death, gentlemen.

See how the blood is darker?

Yes, I do.

Look, right there, Hank.

Gastritis, bleeding ulcer.

Let me see that.

Look here. See for yourself.

It's exactly how it is in the textbook.

I don't know about this. I do.

I've seen enough.

Time to go?

Yes.

It's time to go free.

I've decided that you can use Abigail's
room for as long as you need to. Oh, no.

Lauren, that is so kind of you, and I
accept, on one condition, that I be

allowed to work a few hours in the store
a day to pay for it.

Well, you can't.

Why not?

Come on, I'll show you.

This is fine.

That's the desk.

That's not just a desk.

That's an editor's desk.

There's room for a hand press here.

Type box over here.

Someone who's running a gazette won't
have time to work in my store.

disturbing the customers.
