00:19:15,322 --> 00:19:16,556
WHAT IS IT,
ISAIAH?

344
00:19:19,226 --> 00:19:20,727
WHEN THAT REVEREND
WAS TALKING
THIS MORNING,

345
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,596
IT KIND OF GOT ME
TO THINKING.

346
00:19:23,630 --> 00:19:28,468
YOU KNOW, HE
WAS TALKING ABOUT
HOPE, OPPORTUNITY,

347
00:19:28,501 --> 00:19:32,472
HOW YOU GOT TO
TAKE AN OPPORTUNITY
WHEN IT COME.

348
00:19:32,505 --> 00:19:35,408
AND JANE, LIFE
IS TOO SHORT,

349
00:19:35,442 --> 00:19:39,312
IT'S TOO
PRECIOUS NOT TO
JUST REACH OUT

350
00:19:39,346 --> 00:19:41,514
AND GRAB ALL
THE HAPPINESS
YOU CAN GET.

351
00:19:44,284 --> 00:19:45,885
WHAT ARE YOU
TRYING TO SAY?

352
00:19:48,521 --> 00:19:50,690
I THINK YOU
OUGHT TO HAVE
THAT OPERATION.

353
00:19:54,627 --> 00:19:57,297
LAURA TOLD ME
ABOUT IT.

354
00:19:57,330 --> 00:20:00,733
NOW, LISTEN, I KNOW
YOU'VE SUFFERED
A LOT IN THE PAST,

355
00:20:00,767 --> 00:20:03,970
YOU HAD A LOT
OF PAIN, A LOT OF
DISAPPOINTMENT.

356
00:20:04,003 --> 00:20:06,839
BUT THAT DOCTOR
IN CHICAGO, I MEAN,

357
00:20:06,873 --> 00:20:08,275
HE CAN OFFER
YOU SOMETHING

358
00:20:08,308 --> 00:20:11,978
NO OTHER MAN
IN THE WORLD
CAN OFFER YOU.

359
00:20:12,011 --> 00:20:15,782
HE'S HOLDING OUT--
HOLDING OUT
HOPE, JANE,

360
00:20:15,815 --> 00:20:19,319
HOPE THAT
YOU CAN SEE.

361
00:20:19,352 --> 00:20:21,288
GRAB IT, JANE,
JUST...

362
00:20:21,321 --> 00:20:25,492
GRAB HOLD OF
THAT HOPE AND
RUN WITH IT.

363
00:20:25,525 --> 00:20:26,926
JUST RUN WITH
IT, DARLING.

364
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:35,768
ALL RIGHT.

365
00:20:38,338 --> 00:20:40,273
FOR YOU, ISAIAH.

366
00:20:45,512 --> 00:20:47,914
I'LL DO IT
FOR YOU.

367
00:21:01,494 --> 00:21:05,598
MISS CANFIELD,
THE DOCTOR'S
READY FOR YOU.

368
00:21:05,632 --> 00:21:07,934
OKAY, I HAVE
A WHEELCHAIR
HERE FOR YOU.

369
00:21:07,967 --> 00:21:09,369
Hester-Sue:
GO STRAIGHT.

370
00:21:11,604 --> 00:21:12,805
NOW STEP UP.

371
00:21:16,042 --> 00:21:17,510
YOU NERVOUS?

372
00:21:17,544 --> 00:21:18,911
ANXIOUS.

373
00:21:26,386 --> 00:21:27,687
OKAY?

374
00:22:03,523 --> 00:22:08,361
[HUMMING]

375
00:22:08,395 --> 00:22:09,596
AFTERNOON,
ISAIAH.

376
00:22:09,629 --> 00:22:11,097
NELS.
HARRIET.

377
00:22:11,130 --> 00:22:12,499
Harriet: EDWARDS.

378
00:22:12,532 --> 00:22:14,066
WHAT CAN I
DO FOR YOU?

379
00:22:14,100 --> 00:22:17,437
WELL, I'M JUST
ABOUT TO RUN OUT
OF EVERYTHING.

380
00:22:17,470 --> 00:22:19,572
WORK'S PILING UP
AT THE MILL.

381
00:22:19,606 --> 00:22:21,040
I'LL PICK THIS
STUFF UP ON
THE WAY HOME.

382
00:22:21,073 --> 00:22:23,410
Nels:
SURE THING.
ISAIAH?

383
00:22:23,443 --> 00:22:24,711
YEAH.

384
00:22:24,744 --> 00:22:26,946
ARE YOU
ALL RIGHT?

385
00:22:26,979 --> 00:22:28,114
[SIGHS]

386
00:22:28,147 --> 00:22:29,148
TELL YOU THE
TRUTH, NELS,

387
00:22:29,181 --> 00:22:31,584
IF I WAS STILL
A DRINKING MAN,

388
00:22:31,618 --> 00:22:35,021
I'D ADD A COUPLE OF BOTTLES
OF YOUR EXTRA-STRENGTH COUGH
MEDICINE TO THAT LIST.

389
00:22:35,054 --> 00:22:37,824
WHAT'S WRONG?

390
00:22:37,857 --> 00:22:40,727
OH, I CAN'T STOP
WORRYING ABOUT JANE.

391
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,529
Nels: I THOUGHT
AS MUCH.

392
00:22:42,562 --> 00:22:44,063
NOW, LOOK...

393
00:22:44,096 --> 00:22:46,899
SHE IS UNDER THE CARE
OF ONE OF THE FINEST
EYE SURGEONS

394
00:22:46,933 --> 00:22:48,601
IN THE COUNTRY.

395
00:22:48,635 --> 00:22:50,703
YEAH, I KNOW.
I KNOW.

396
00:22:50,737 --> 00:22:53,773
JUST IF THAT OPERATION
DOESN'T TAKE, IT'S GOING
TO BREAK HER HEART.

397
00:22:53,806 --> 00:22:57,744
MINE, TOO,
JUST SEEING HER
DISAPPOINTMENT.

398
00:22:57,777 --> 00:22:59,646
WELL, I BETTER
GET BACK TO WORK.

399
00:23:06,719 --> 00:23:08,921
WHAT A FINE
AND CARING MAN.

400
00:23:10,790 --> 00:23:13,493
OH, YES.

401
00:23:13,526 --> 00:23:17,430
HE CERTAINLY IS.

402
00:23:17,464 --> 00:23:19,198
HARRIET, I
KNOW YOU DON'T
LIKE ISAIAH,

403
00:23:19,231 --> 00:23:21,601
BUT EVEN YOU CAN
SEE WHAT HE'S
GOING THROUGH.

404
00:23:23,470 --> 00:23:25,805
YES.
YES, INDEED.

405
00:23:25,838 --> 00:23:27,740
I CERTAINLY CAN.

406
00:23:27,774 --> 00:23:34,180
JUST IMAGINE A
SMELLY, OLD GRIZZLY
BEAR LIKE THAT

407
00:23:34,213 --> 00:23:41,020
PINING AWAY OVER
SUCH A SWEET AND
DEFENSELESS YOUNG GIRL.

408
00:23:41,053 --> 00:23:45,525
I THINK IT'S
ABSOLUTELY
DISGUSTING.

409
00:23:45,558 --> 00:23:47,059
Nels: HARRIET,
IS THERE NO LIMIT

410
00:23:47,093 --> 00:23:49,529
TO THE LOW THINGS
THAT YOU'LL SAY
ABOUT A PERSON?

411
00:23:49,562 --> 00:23:51,230
I THINK THAT'S
POSITIVELY EVIL!

412
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:52,632
OH, IS THAT SO?

413
00:23:52,665 --> 00:23:54,100
YES, THAT'S SO!

414
00:23:54,133 --> 00:23:57,103
AND I'M SHOCKED.
I AM SHOCKED
AND HORRIFIED.

415
00:23:57,136 --> 00:23:58,805
WELL!

416
00:23:58,838 --> 00:24:03,510
LET ME TELL YOU
SOMETHING, MR. SHOCKED
AND HORRIFIED.

417
00:24:03,543 --> 00:24:06,479
A WOMAN CAN
ALWAYS TELL ABOUT
THINGS LIKE THAT,

418
00:24:06,513 --> 00:24:10,049
WHEREAS A MAN
WOULD ALWAYS BE
TOTALLY BLIND.

419
00:24:10,082 --> 00:24:11,984
NOW, YOU MARK
MY WORDS.

420
00:24:12,018 --> 00:24:15,822
YOUR FINE
AND CARING MR.
EDWARDS THERE

421
00:24:15,855 --> 00:24:18,925
IS IN LOVE
WITH A CHILD.

422
00:24:21,628 --> 00:24:23,062
AHH!

423
00:24:23,095 --> 00:24:24,531
OHH.

424
00:24:29,268 --> 00:24:31,638
MR. EDWARDS!

425
00:24:31,671 --> 00:24:33,139
MR. EDWARDS!

426
00:24:33,172 --> 00:24:35,274
HELLO THERE,
HALF-PINT, WHAT'S
ALL THE EXCITEMENT?

427
00:24:35,307 --> 00:24:36,943
IT'S A TELEGRAM
FROM HESTER-SUE.

428
00:24:36,976 --> 00:24:38,144
JANE HAD
THE OPERATION,

429
00:24:38,177 --> 00:24:39,278
AND THE DOCTORS
ARE HOPEFUL.

430
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:41,581
HOPEFUL?
WHAT DOES
THAT MEAN?

431
00:24:41,614 --> 00:24:43,583
WELL, THEY'RE NOT SURE YET.
SHE STILL HAS TO WEAR
BANDAGES FOR 10 DAYS.

432
00:24:43,616 --> 00:24:45,084
YEAH, BUT YOU
SAID, "HOPEFUL."

433
00:24:45,117 --> 00:24:47,687
THAT--THAT MEANS
THERE'S A CHANCE,
DON'T IT?

434
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:48,888
YES!

435
00:24:48,921 --> 00:24:52,058
- HA HA HA!
- YES!

436
00:24:52,091 --> 00:24:54,293
[LAUGHS]

437
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:57,930
HALF-PINT, SHE'S
GOING TO SEE, I CAN
FEEL IT IN MY BONES.

438
00:24:57,964 --> 00:24:59,165
THIS IS
FOR YOU.

439
00:24:59,198 --> 00:25:00,199
WHAT'S THIS?

440
00:25:00,232 --> 00:25:02,001
THERE'S A LETTER
FROM JANE.

441
00:25:02,034 --> 00:25:04,270
SHE ASKED ME TO GIVE
IT TO YOU SOMETIME
AFTER THE OPERATION.

442
00:25:04,303 --> 00:25:05,972
SEEMS KIND OF
FUNNY, DON'T IT?

443
00:25:06,005 --> 00:25:07,707
WHY DOESN'T SHE
JUST TELL ME WHAT
SHE HAD TO SAY?

444
00:25:07,740 --> 00:25:09,876
WELL, I GUESS
YOU'LL HAVE TO READ
IT TO FIND OUT.

445
00:25:46,078 --> 00:25:47,680
IS SOMETHING
WRONG?

446
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,987
SHE LOVES ME,
LAURA.

447
00:25:57,356 --> 00:25:59,558
IT'S ALL
RIGHT HERE.

448
00:26:02,194 --> 00:26:04,063
THE THING IS I
LOVE HER, TOO.

449
00:26:06,332 --> 00:26:08,134
THE DAY SHE
LEFT OUT OF HERE
ON THAT STAGE,

450
00:26:08,167 --> 00:26:11,203
I FELT THE
LONELIEST I'VE EVER
FELT IN MY LIFE.

451
00:26:13,105 --> 00:26:15,274
I'VE JUST BEEN
EMPTY INSIDE.

452
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:18,745
[SIGHS]

453
00:26:22,281 --> 00:26:23,650
I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE THINKING.

454
00:26:23,683 --> 00:26:25,618
YOU'RE THINKING
I'M TOO OLD.

455
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,088
I DIDN'T
SAY THAT.

456
00:26:29,121 --> 00:26:31,190
LAURA, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO SAY IT.

457
00:26:31,223 --> 00:26:33,259
IT'S WRITTEN ALL
OVER YOUR FACE!

458
00:26:33,292 --> 00:26:35,394
Isaiah: SHE HAS A RIGHT
TO SOMETHING BETTER.

459
00:26:35,427 --> 00:26:36,796
MR. EDWARDS--

460
00:26:36,829 --> 00:26:38,264
I MEAN, WHAT DO
I HAVE A RIGHT TO?

461
00:26:38,297 --> 00:26:39,966
TELL ME THAT.

462
00:26:39,999 --> 00:26:42,068
I MEAN, A YOUNG
AND A BEAUTIFUL
WOMAN COMES ALONG,

463
00:26:42,101 --> 00:26:44,203
SHE FALLS IN LOVE
WITH ME, I FALL
IN LOVE WITH HER.

464
00:26:44,236 --> 00:26:45,838
WHAT AM I
SUPPOSED TO
DO ABOUT THAT,

465
00:26:45,872 --> 00:26:48,340
PRETEND LIKE
IT DOESN'T EXIST?

466
00:26:48,374 --> 00:26:50,910
OH, THAT'D MAKE
EVERYBODY HAPPY,
WOULDN'T IT?

467
00:26:50,943 --> 00:26:53,880
YEAH. FUNNY OLD
MR. EDWARDS, JUST
KEEP ON LIVING ALONE

468
00:26:53,913 --> 00:26:55,882
AND MAKING
FOLKS A-LAUGH.

469
00:26:55,915 --> 00:26:57,149
YOU'RE JUST UPSET.

470
00:26:57,183 --> 00:26:58,951
YOU'RE PUTTING
WORDS IN MY MOUTH.

471
00:26:58,985 --> 00:27:02,989
I AM JUST SAYING
WHAT I KNOW EVERYBODY
ELSE IS THINKING!

472
00:27:03,022 --> 00:27:05,357
NOW, CAN YOU LOOK ME
IN THE EYE AND TELL
ME I'M NOT RIGHT?

473
00:27:12,164 --> 00:27:16,969
YOU'RE THE DEAREST
FRIEND I'VE GOT
IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

474
00:27:17,003 --> 00:27:19,005
Laura:
I DON'T WANT TO
SEE YOU GET HURT.

475
00:27:19,038 --> 00:27:22,108
I DON'T WANT
TO SEE JANE
GET HURT.

476
00:27:22,141 --> 00:27:24,877
I JUST WANT
YOU BOTH TO
BE CAREFUL.

477
00:27:29,081 --> 00:27:30,683
JANE MET A MAN
WHO WAS KIND AND
MADE HER LAUGH.

478
00:27:35,888 --> 00:27:38,290
THOUGHT THAT'S WHAT
LOVE WAS ALL ABOUT--

479
00:27:38,324 --> 00:27:41,260
BEING KIND, MAKING
SOMEBODY LAUGH
ONCE IN A WHILE.

480
00:27:41,293 --> 00:27:43,896
I MEAN, WHAT'S
WRONG WITH THAT?

481
00:27:43,930 --> 00:27:46,999
I'M NOT JUDGING
WHAT'S RIGHT OR WRONG.

482
00:27:47,033 --> 00:27:50,036
TWO OF MY
CLOSEST FRIENDS
ARE INVOLVED HERE.

483
00:27:50,069 --> 00:27:51,938
I JUST WANT
WHAT'S BEST FOR
BOTH OF YOU.

484
00:27:51,971 --> 00:27:53,439
OH, I SEE.

485
00:27:53,472 --> 00:27:56,108
AND YOU THINK
I'M NOT WHAT'S
BEST FOR HER.

486
00:27:56,142 --> 00:27:59,979
WHY CAN'T
EVERYBODY LET
HER DECIDE THAT?

487
00:28:00,012 --> 00:28:01,447
OH, I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE THINKING.

488
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:02,982
WHEN SHE GETS
HER EYESIGHT BACK,

489
00:28:03,015 --> 00:28:06,118
AND SHE SEES
HOW UGLY I AM,
HOW OLD, HOW--

490
00:28:06,152 --> 00:28:10,022
THAT'S NOT WHAT
I WAS THINKING,
AND YOU KNOW IT.

491
00:28:10,056 --> 00:28:11,390
YOU THINK
I'M TOO OLD,
DON'T YOU?

492
00:28:15,227 --> 00:28:16,362
WELL, ANSWER ME!

493
00:28:23,035 --> 00:28:24,971
I THINK ONLY
YOU CAN BE THE
JUDGE OF THAT.

494
00:28:26,505 --> 00:28:29,408
SHE IS A GROWN
WOMAN, I AM
A GROWN MAN,

495
00:28:29,441 --> 00:28:31,844
AND WE HAVE
A RIGHT TO
A LIFE!

496
00:28:33,012 --> 00:28:34,513
[CHUCKLES]

497
00:28:34,546 --> 00:28:37,283
YOU'RE JUST A CHILD.
WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW
ABOUT IT?

498
00:28:42,521 --> 00:28:44,423
I'M THE SAME
AGE AS JANE.

499
00:29:29,969 --> 00:29:32,905
ALL RIGHT, JANE.

500
00:29:32,939 --> 00:29:36,909
I'M GOING TO
SLOWLY REMOVE
THE BANDAGE.

501
00:29:36,943 --> 00:29:39,011
NOW, IF YOU
FEEL ANY PAIN,

502
00:29:39,045 --> 00:29:40,446
YOU TELL ME.

503
00:29:48,087 --> 00:29:52,358
NOW, KEEP YOUR
EYES CLOSED...

504
00:29:52,391 --> 00:29:54,360
TILL I TELL YOU
TO OPEN THEM.

505
00:29:56,528 --> 00:29:58,097
[GASPS]

506
00:29:59,899 --> 00:30:01,500
KEEP THEM
CLOSED.

507
00:30:09,976 --> 00:30:12,311
NOW...

508
00:30:12,344 --> 00:30:15,014
VERY SLOWLY...

509
00:30:15,047 --> 00:30:16,315
OPEN YOUR EYES.

00:32:29,048 --> 00:32:31,717
I WAS WORRIED
ABOUT YOU.

IT AIN'T NO CALL TO
GET MAD LIKE THAT.

00:34:06,545 --> 00:34:08,380
I UNDERSTAND.

00:34:11,217 --> 00:34:15,121
I'M NOT
SURE YOU DO.

YOU'RE MY AGE,

YOU LIVE ALONE,

A LOT OF DREAMS.

COME ALONG AND FALL
IN LOVE WITH ME,

TO GRAB ON TO.

THAT'S ALL
I WAS MAD AT.

IT'S KNOWING
THE TRUTH AND
NOT WANTING TO.

00:35:00,199 --> 00:35:02,501
I THINK THAT'S
THE HARDEST PART
ABOUT GETTING OLD.

FELLOW THAT CAN GIVE
YOU THAT, DARLING.

683
00:44:04,810 --> 00:44:06,712
YOU GO ON HOME
WITH LAURA.

684
00:44:21,292 --> 00:44:22,861
GO HOME, JANE.

685
00:45:19,484 --> 00:45:22,187
IT SEEMS LIKE
WE'RE ALWAYS SAYING
HELLO OR GOODBYE.

686

Hester-Sue: GIVE
OUR BEST REGARDS
