All language subtitles for Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman S03e02 Fathers And Sons

Lauren Bray was a good man.

He worked hard all his life, made a lot
of money.

It's too bad he can't take any of it
with him.

Well, he didn't leave it to me.

Lauren's last request was that this
money be used to put up a statue of

in the town square.

What for?

Why, for all his accomplishments.

All he did is run a general store.

It's not like he did anything to talk
about, except over charges.

I did not.

You lie down right now. You're dead.

I still have things to do.

I'm sorry, Lauren, but your life's over.

How do you know?

I'm a doctor.

Sully, help me.

No, no.

No, no. Now, you did not give me that,
Lauren.

Gentlemen, gentlemen, this is not a
broodmare.

This is not your cart horse. This is a
sorrel gelding.

Look at this horse.

Lady broke and gentle.

What am I offered for this horse? Do not
put that money away, sir. This is not a

cart horse. Let me start the bidding.

$25. Do I hear $25? $25. $25. Do I hear
$30 for this fine animal? Do I hear $30?

$30. $35. Do I hear $35? $40. $40.

$40. Warren, could you get us a
lemonade, please?

Gone. And with the carpet bag, $40.

Ryan, did you hear me?

What?

He's busy.

You ought to buy him, Jake.

He wants too much money.

How much?

You ain't thinking about buying him, are
you? Why not?

Too much horse for you to handle, old
man.

You need a gelder.

What I need is that stallion. Do I hear
$30? $30? $35? Do I hear $35? $40? $40?

Do I hear $40?

$40? Gentlemen, please.

This is a stallion. Do I hear $40? $40?
Do I hear $45? $45? $45 for this fine

stallion. $45? $45.

$45. Going once. Going twice.

Gone to the gray -haired gentleman.

For $45.

Sir, you have bought yourself a fine
horse.

Hey.

Boy, what's the matter?

Nothing.

Any broken bones?

Maybe we should take you to the clinic.
Let me examine you just in case. What

about my horse?

I'll bring him.

I want you to take a hot bath in Epsom
salt tonight.

Then have Dorothy rub some of this into
your shoulder.

I can do it.

You're going to be very sore for a few
days.

You should rest. Take it easy.

I'm fine.

The body doesn't heal as fast when you
get older.

Mine does.

Anything else?

You were lucky.

Very lucky.

Lauren, do you think it's wise for a man
of your age to be taking chances like

that? You think I can't handle that
horse?

What I think is that you could have hurt
other people.

Well, I didn't.

How's your horse, old man? Just fine.

Hey!

When you finish your bath, can you get
me another beer?

Here,

Jake.

Now, you know I'm going to get you.

That's your sister.

Yeah. Let's get closer.

You cheeky little...

Lauren, those hinges come in yet? Oh,
yeah.

They come in this morning.

So, uh, what do you think of my new
suit?

Gets you real good.

All right, here's a fancy one.

You like it?

Well, it, uh, it...

Sure fits you good.

Everybody's been saying that. You want a
shave to go with your new suit?

No, I need something else.

What?

You know how to do it? Well, of course I
do.

You won't tell nobody, will you?

It'll be our secret.

Oh, good afternoon, sir. May I help?

What did you do to your hair?

I had Jake fix it up a bit.

Fix it?

Well, it looks like you got dipped in a
tar bucket.

Will that stuff come off? You don't want
it to come off. I like it. It looks

ridiculous.

And that suit looks as bad on you as it
did in the catalog.

I like it.

I'm tired of the same old things,
Dorothy.

I've been wearing the same clothes for
years.

I eat the same meatloaf every Tuesday at
Grace's.

Get up every day at the same time.

Work at the same job till supper.

And then I start the whole thing all
over again.

That's what we all do, Lauren.

Yeah, well, maybe it's time for me to do
something different.

You have a good life here. You have
friends. You're respected in this

What else do you want?

I want... I want to feel alive again.

I want to have some adventure.

I'm ready to do something exciting, to
go somewhere.

Where would you go?

I don't know. Maybe California.

I was going to go in 49, but... The gold
rush is over, Lauren.

And you're too big to run away.

Dorothy, I swear I'm going to do
something with the time I got left

old.

Gosh.

There's pictures of everything.

Even they're inside.

Come on, Steven. It's my turn.

You keep the lookout.

You won't believe this.

Let me see. What is it?

I don't know.

Brian?

Where's the mouse?

I don't know. I gotta go.

Me too. Bye, Sully.

Sully, what are you doing?

I'm not surprised.

Well, so was I when I caught Brian doing
the same thing.

Brian was looking at these pictures?

Him and his friend, Stephen.

They're at that age.

What age?

Have you ever had a talk with Brian
about birds and the bees?

You mean procreation?

Not exactly. Don't you think it's time
he knew what happens between a man and a

woman when they fall in love and get
married?

About snuggling?

Procreation?

Well, I suppose it's time.

I have an excellent book that he can
read.

Don't you think you should just sit him
down and tell him what he needs to know?

He's only... Interested in the basics.

Where babies come from, what things are
called.

The rest you learn by doing.

Did your father tell you?

No, but I wish he had.

There are some things you should hear
from other men.

I'd be happy to talk to him for you.

I don't see that it would make much
difference who told him, as long as he's

properly instructed.

What's going on?

Lauren's leaving town.

Something smells like old beer.

Is that you?

Lauren, don't do this. I wired ahead for
a reservation on a ship to Bolivia.

Why, you can ask Horace.

True. We did it this morning.

Lauren, Bolivia is a long ways from
here.

So is Egypt, China, and Ireland.

And I may just see all of them before
I'm through traveling.

We'll be back, won't you, Mr. Bray? Of
course we will.

I'll bring you a ruby from Burma. Oh.

Why are you asking me about that?

Don't you know?

Of course I know.

I figured you did, too.

I know a thing or two, but I don't know
everything.

What do you mean by a thing or two?

Brian, do you know where babies come
from?

Sure I do.

I've seen that around here plenty of
times with the animals.

Well, all right, if you know that, then
what more do you want to know?

I want to know about girls.

Don't ask me about that.

Can't make sense. They're angry half the
time we're talking.

And somebody's been around them longer.

Somebody older.

Someone who understands.

Trying to understand them, that's the
first mistake.

It is?

Don't matter if he's five or six.

He's gonna always do something to try
and keep you confused.

Off balance.

Why?

Just the way women are.

Been doing it since the Garden of Eden.

Then how do you ever know what women
want?

You have to guess.

Guess? Why can't you just ask them?

Oh, if a woman has to tell you what she
wants, she gets mad because you didn't

think of it first.

But it could be anything.

Well, that's true.

That's why you always got to be looking,
watching for signs.

What kind of signs?

You got to watch their eyes.

When Myra gets a hankering for
something, Her eyes get like this.

And sometimes she gets this funny little
smile on her lips.

Do all women do that?

No, no, no. I just know Myra does.

All right.

I got you lunch, brother.

Good boy.

How are we ever going to learn all this
stuff?

Well, we'll just have to keep asking.

Let's ask Hank.

I don't think... Come on. I bet Hank
knows a lot about one.

Can we ask you something?

What?

What do you want to know about women?

What do you want to know?

Well, is there some sort of secret or
something?

Like one thing you can tell us you know
for sure about them.

Ain't no secret, boy.

I'll be happy to tell you everything I
know about women.

Ever seen a naked lady?

Sure. Yeah.

What?

You know everything I do, man.

Go on.

Get out of here.

You know, Jake, that, uh, hair tonic
you're using smells a lot like, uh,

Jake, what happened?

Just a little accident, that's all.

Let me get you down here.

Nothing compared to what I'm going to
do.

He was watching me get dressed.

Brian?

Have you been spying on your sister?

Just a couple of times. Brian. Cooper.

So it was you looking at me and my
friend Santa at the creek.

Stephen was with me too.

Oh, you toad. I can't believe you did
that.

And I can't believe it either.

Brian, I want to see you at the clinic
after school.

What for? You and I are going to have a
very serious talk, young man.

You're making way too much out of this.
All he did was take a little peek.

All boys do it.

Even you?

I didn't have a sister.

My best friend did.

Sully. I was about ten years old.

How old were you when you first saw a
naked man?

Sully. How old were you?

Oh, I was 26, he was 54, and I was
dissecting him.

So?

My offer still stands.

You want me to talk to him, I will.

Thank you, but I believe it's something
I should do myself.

In the first stages of life, the
functional difference between men and

comparatively slightly marked.

But the approach of puberty in both
brings about clearly defined internal

external changes.

The male is attended by a characteristic
alteration of the voyeur.

Owing to the development of the
pulmonary atomy, And the elongation of

thyroid cartilage and the thyroarachnoid
muscle, when placed in the cavity of

the uterus, by virtue of the vital
principle that animates it, the ovum

attached to the inner surface of that
viscus, and it pains from it,

the nutriment necessary for its gradual
development.

And then, after a week or so, the
umbilical cord falls off.

Well, do we have any questions?

Good. Glad we had the talk.

Puberty brings about changes.

She's going to always do something to
try and keep me confused.

Well, you've always got to be looking
for something.

...and elongation of the thyroid
cartilage. You're still looking at me

friend Santa's cake.

The organ becomes attached to the inner
surface of the abyssal and obtains

formal and external changes.

And elongation of the thyroid cartilage.

Huh?

Mr. Gray?

What are you doing here? You're supposed
to be in Bolivia.

Aren't you glad I ain't?

That bear's been after me ever since I
set up camp.

You better get over here before you
knock that tree down.

I can't.

You can.

Here.

Sure, he ran away.

Took a bedroll with him. And some food.
He can't have gone very far. Matthew, to

get the horses.

It's not my fault.

Of course it's not.

I was about to say that perhaps it was
my fault.

I don't think you should go after him.

Why not?

Because you can't be rescuing him all
the time.

If he's going to grow as a man, there's
some things he's got to go through.

He's not a man. He's a ten -year -old
boy.

What if something happens to him?

Matthew and I will go find him to make
sure he's all right.

It's time to let him be, Michaela.

Rod.

Wake up, Rod.

He's gone, I think.

Let's get moving.

Are you still going to Bolivia, Mr.
Gray? I am indeed.

As soon as I find my horse and you.

Can I go with you? No.

You have to go home.

I can't. Why not?

I'm running away.

From what?

Ma said it's something called puberty. I
don't want to catch it.

You've got no choice, Brian. Everybody
catches it.

Even in Bolivia? Yeah, it comes with
growing up. You mean I already got it?

You thinking about girls instead of
school?

You got it.

You better than that, Jake.

Did Jake shoot you? No, I fell off my
horse.

Let's see, where did it hurt? Right
there.

You could have broken your neck.

Wait till you see what I got in store
for you, Jake.

It's gonna be real fried.

I can't believe you're doing this. Two
grown men acting like schoolboys?

Kidding. Never had this much throwing
ice in school.

that we found him, he's all right.

When are you going to bring him home?

You know she's going to ask me.

Tomorrow.

All right.

Want to play catch, Mr. Ray?

No.

Don't you know how?

No.

Didn't your father teach you? I didn't
have baseball when I was a kid.

You hold out your hands like this, and
you gotta keep your eye on the ball.

Look, I ain't got time to fool around,
Brian.

Ray, I've been thinking.

If you take me with you, I could teach
him how to play baseball in Bolivia.

Excuse me, but I'm trying to get packed
up and out of here before that bear

comes back. Oh, he's long gone.

Come on, Mr. Bray, hold out your hands.
No!

You can do it.

All right.

You stand right here.

Now hold out your hand.

Here it comes.

Both of you, two hands, Mr. Bray.

I don't want to play.

I don't want to do this. Don't you
understand?

It's all right.

I'll get it.

What's up, Mr. Bray? You gotta try
again.

I'm too old to play catch.

No, you're not.

Yes, I am.

And I'm too old to be going to Bolivia.

So what are you gonna do?

I don't know.

Gonna leave your hair like that?

Maybe I'll just stay here in the woods
till it grows out.

Well, and you're gonna be here for a
while.

If I teach you about baseball, will you
teach me about women?

Women? Well, girls first, then women.

Why don't you ask Sully to teach you?

Because he's going to be my pa.

So?

Did your father tell you?

My grandfather told me.

Well, I don't have a grandfather.

And you're the oldest man I know.

Who else can I ask?

You've got to know more about women than
anybody in town.

Well,

all right, what do you want to know?

I want to know everything.

That way I'll be ready for it.

Well, you can forget about that.

I know plenty about women, but they
still surprise me at least twice a day.

They do?

Yeah.

Women drive us crazy, but we keep coming
back for more.

Why? Because they got something we need.

Well, what's that?

Boys are so disgusting.

Colleen. Well, I've never peeked through
a knothole to see some naked boys.

You should certainly hope not.

Well, why did he do it?

Well, Sally said that all boys do that.

He said that Brian was just curious.

Well, curiosity killed the cat.

Colleen, men are different.

Men like to look at women.

My father did.

He'd see a pretty woman walking down the
street and his head would turn.

It used to make my mother so mad.

But she said so long as that was all he
did, it was harmless.

And so it's all right for them to spy on
us?

No. Spying is one thing, and admiring
from a distance is another.

When Brian comes home tomorrow, I'm
going to have a long talk with him about

respect and privacy.

Well, I'm never going to let a man see
me naked again.

Colleen, I... I know you talked with
your grandma about growing up and

a woman.

Perhaps there are some questions you
still have about what happens between

married people.

I'm not getting married.

Why not?

I couldn't bear the thought of my
husband looking at another woman.

Could you?

Well, I suppose it would bother me if
Sully did.

You don't have to worry.

I've seen him.

He's always looking at you.

But you've got to save the big stuff,
you know, for anniversaries.

And every once in a while, it's a good
idea to kind of surprise them, you know,

with a little present.

I always like to get something
practical, you know, like a new broom.

Something she can use around the house.
They like that.

Oh, come on, Fred!

Fred, I'm free now!

I dropped my phone!

Fred!

Don't forget your ball and leave it.

For Mr. Bray.

No, no, no, no, no.

No!

Did he?

Biggest bear you ever saw?

He had a street up there for days.

He almost ate me alive.

It was nothing.

Sounds like something to me.

What are you doing here?

Your ma and I want you to come home,
Brian.

I can't.

I'm running away.

Running away is not going to stop what's
happening to you, Brian.

There are going to be times in your life
when...

Are you going to be confused about what
you're feeling?

Right now happens to be one of them.

I know you can't always put it into
words.

You don't really want to talk about it
sometimes, but if you ever need to talk

about it, I'll be there to listen.

Cloud dancing found your horse and your
pack mule.

They're over at the reservation.

I'll bring you there on the way back to
town.

I ain't going back to town.

Where are you going to go?

I ain't decided yet.

Well, thank you as far as the
reservation.

Still having fun, Hank?

Not over yet.

Not by a long shot.

So when will it stop? When one of you
kills the other one? When one started

It did not. You laughed at me. The whole
town was laughing at you. Yeah, but you

wouldn't let up. You kept making fun of
me every chance you got.

You mean this is all because Jake was
making fun of you?

You wouldn't understand.

I'm sorry, Hank. I didn't mean nothing
by it.

But you gotta admit, it was pretty
funny.

Well, so was seeing you hit the floor.

How do you do that? I got this on.

Listen.

Want to go get a beer?

Yeah, I could go for one.

Hey, Jake.

Wait until you've left for lunch and
then you're back in.

He's growing up so fast.

Still a lot of boy left in him.

He'll be for a while.

Say goodbye to Brian for me, would you?

Hey, Lauren.

Don't think you're gonna talk me out of
going.

I wasn't gonna try.

But you can't leave till you get your
new name.

What new name?

The Indians take a new name after a big
event happens in their life.

I told Cloud Dancing about you saving
Brian.

He said...

Your Cheyenne name should be the one who
stands against the bear.

Well, tell him I said thank you.

Goodbye, son.

You can't leave until after the
ceremony.

What ceremony?

Part of getting your new name.

I don't want to be in no Indian
ceremony.

Lauren, you are going to insult them if
you don't.

What do I got to do?

Got to dance with the elders?

I ain't dancing with a bunch of Indians.

This is a great honor.

They want to give you an eagle feather.

What for?

Because the Cheyenne cherish the wisdom
that comes with age.

Even though a man can no longer hunt,
he's still a great value to the tribe.

He becomes a father to all sons, counsel
to all men.

From this point on, you will be known
as... Well,

thank...

Why don't you go sit over there by the
lamp?

Lauren, there's something I need to say
to you. Not necessary. I want to

apologize.

I want to apologize for calling you an
old fool.

Well, maybe I was acting like one.

I've just never seen you like that
before.

I wasn't sure what to do.

There was nothing you could do, Dorothy.

I guess it was just something I had to
go through.

Do you think this is going to work?

Oh, yes. You're going to look just like
your old self.

Your original self.

I think he's a pretty nice fella.

I'm glad he's home.

And I promise never to spy on you again.

What about your friends? I won't let
them.

All right.

I'll forgive you, but if this ever
happens again, I'll... Elaine, shake his

hand.

Elaine, is there something you want to
tell him?

I'm glad you're home.

We all are.

Good. All right, get ready for bed.

I think he's all right.

Yep.

I don't need to talk to him again?

No.

Phil, you talk to him and he knows
everything he needs to know.

Well... Lauren talked to more than I
did, but I think between the three of

Brian got an education.

So you don't think that I could have
done it by myself?

I do.

Plenty of boys have been raised up just
fine by one woman, but the truth is,

there are times when a boy needs to be
around other men.

And if he didn't have me or Lauren,
you'd find somebody Brian could spend

with.

What did Lauren tell him about women?

He said that women have one thing that
all men need.

What's that?

Love.

Woman's love gives man courage.

What did you tell him?

There's only one thing I know about
women.

You gotta be lucky enough to meet the
right one.

And then never let go.
