It is but one life,

whether we spend it in loving or in weeping.

High up the mountain, where the coffee grows,

is an island within an island.

A place where many Japanese came to work and live

in pursuit of a new life.

A young boy of mixed race was left an orphan,

when a foreign sickness struck the island.

To protect that boy,

his unwed mother had hid him

from the small community of coffee pickers,

who believed such children brought shame and bad luck.

No one knew that the child existed.

This terrible disease did not discriminate

between race and class.

Mr. Danielson, the plantation owner,

was forever changed upon the passing of his beloved wife.

On that very sad day,

I became the guardian of Miss Grace.

And so, two children from very different worlds

were both left without their mothers.

Hey, kid!

Hey, you shouldn't be near that body.

It's not safe. Hey!

A very good morning.

Excuse me! There's gotta be a better alternative

than beating the kid senseless.

Here.

This should cover you for whatever the kid owes you.

Now, let's have a look at you, young man.

Let me take a look at ya, kid.

Hey, take it easy with that stuff.

It's fragile.

Half?

I sailed 2,500 miles at my own expense,

I bounced all the way up this blasted mountain,

and now you're telling me I'm only gonna be making half

of what was agreed upon in writing?

I'd like to speak to Mr. Danielson.

I'm his plantation foreman.

I speak for him.

Coffee market drives everything here.

Right now the whole mountain is in the middle of cutbacks.

All right, when's the next boat leaving for the mainland?

A month.

A month?

I just about spent everything I had getting here.

Listen, we need a doctor.

We've lost many to the plague,

including Mrs. Danielson just two days ago.

How about I work in a housing arrangement

and some store credit?

All right.

Look, just pay me what you can for the month,

and I'll see if I can make do.

If not, I take the next boat back.

Uh, the accommodations aren't what you're used to.

That's fine.

Oh, no.

Hold on, hold on!

This place is a dump.

How am I supposed to get back to town?

- Jitensha. - What?

Jitensha.

- Morning, Doc. - Morning, Mayor.

How do you like the Kona coffee?

The coffee's fine.

I'm not too happy with the stench at my new place.

What's with that kid?

I don't know.

He just showed up out of nowhere.

It's your lucky day. His wife is sick.

All right, well, what are the symptoms?

Wife not breathing.

Some of these folks may need convincing

when it comes to modern medicine.

That's all right. I've spent time in the Orient.

My Lord. Is that the thing that bit her?

Anaphylaxis.

Okay, she had an allergic reaction.

This is adrenalin.

She needs it, or she's gonna die.

Trust me. It's gonna help. It's not an option.

You idiot.

You stupid fool.

You, boy!

Come here, boy. You!

Come on, I don't have time to play games.

Come here.

I need your help.

Explain to this man

that his wife is going to die

if she doesn't get an injection.

Hey!

Shut up, shut up, shut up!

Come on, you can speak, can't ya? Tell him.

He wishes me to leave. Hafu bring bad luck.

Ah, go on.

Listen to me.

I got another one like this.

My house is the last one off the main road

on the left-hand side, you can't miss it.

There's a red fence in front, got it?

Baggu.

My house.

You understand?

What the hell was I thinking?

Run, boy.

Come on, kid.

Attaboy.

Hey.

It's all right, kid.

I'm a doctor.

Okay.

That should do the trick.

I can't have my first patient dying on me, can I?

Yeah, breathe.

You can let him out.

Here you go.

So, kid,

what's your name?

Your name, so I'll know what to call you.

Jo.

Jo. Hmm.

Jo.

Joseph?

Just Jo.

All right, Jo.

All this mountain climbing is making me hungry.

What do you say we go back to town and get something to eat?

So...

how did the first doctoring go?

Well, she's gonna make it.

That's good.

Thanks to this little youngster right here.

I see.

Kid, why don't you tell us where you're from,

so we can help you?

Up mauka, the mountain?

Where's your parents?

Mother, father?

Miyo Watanabe?

Mama.

Mama.

She lived alone, high up in the mountains

on the other side of the valley.

She picked alone, was a bit of a recluse.

We lost her to the plague.

I didn't know she had a kid.

She hid you all this time?

And why would she do that?

Because he's probably...

Because he's probably a bastard.

Some fling with a haole, and now he's a hafu boy.

Japs thinks he brings shame to anyone he's near.

I really wish people would stop using that word.

Maybe some family in the mainland would take him.

Let me guess.

Boat leaves when, in a month?

All right, kid, come on. You're gonna live with me.

Hey, kid, you got anything up there worth keeping?

There's nothing to worry about.

Disease, it dies with the victim.

Okay, kid, let's go.

Is that your mother?

I've lost family.

It's a terrible thing.

But you gotta keep on going, right?

I'll be outside. Take your time.

Good morning.

Looks like the whole family's hard at work.

You can call me Doc, and this is Jo.

Hafu boy.

Not too sociable.

Come on, kid.

Morning.

Ahem!

Ahem!

Hello!

I'm the new doctor for the plantation.

I wanted to take this opportunity

to introduce myself.

Translate, please.

Louder!

Louder, so they can hear you.

I would bow a proper Japanese introduction,

but I have a bad back from the war.

I can barely tie my shoes in the morning.

That's all right. Did you get it all out?

- Yes. - Okay.

Now, if any of you or your loved ones

are sick or get hurt,

you just see Jo, and he'll come get me.

Okay.

Back to work.

You know, Jo, you seem pretty smitten

with the big man's pretty daughter.

These girls get prettier and prettier,

and, uh, the prettier they get,

the crazier they get.

That's right, crazy.

Let's go.

Time flies like an arrow.

As time passed,

so did the disease that plagued our island.

And under the guidance of Doc,

a former outcast grew into a young man

and a valuable member of our small community.

A friendly rivalry grew between Taki the driver,

and Jo the medicine runner.

A daily event that the whole community looked forward to.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hyah!

Hyah!

Hyah! Hup! Hup!

Hyah! Hup!

Hyah! Hyah!

Ah!

Each morning,

Mr. Danielson's daughter, Grace,

would watch from her window high up on the hill.

It was on this day that a simple injury

set in motion a series of events

that would change our little town forever.

Shut that thing off before you burn the place down!

Sir, we should consider selling off assets,

starting from some of this machinery.

The bank is losing patience.

And who exactly would buy this machinery?

We could sell the cinema.

The cinema has a broken projector.

Look, I'm not selling anything. You need to buy me some time.

I don't care how you do it!

What is it, Miss Hanabusa? Is Grace all right?

Miss Grace has sprained her ankle.

I believe she should see the doctor.

A trip to Hilo isn't exactly necessary for a sprained ankle.

I mean Dr. Lawrence. He could come to the house.

Have I not made myself clear

how I feel about that country doctor?

Do you have any idea

how many germs he must be carrying around,

treating all these people?

Miss Grace also has a slight fever.

- Maybe just the ankle. - A fever?

Perhaps we can take certain precautions

for the examination.

Fine.

Miss Grace has hurt her ankle.

May the doctor please come examine it?

Miss Grace?

Well, uh, the doctor's left for Hilo on the train.

He's picking up a pharmaceutical order.

He's gonna be back in two days.

I see.

We will just have to wait until then.

Wait.

I am very qualified to tend to such emergencies.

Doc has been training me for many years, and...

he's asked me to represent him while he's gone.

Oh, okay.

Really?

Okay, um...

I'm gonna go get my bag.

Dr. Lawrence, you've clearly been told multiple times

that the Racial Integrity Guidelines

are in place to discourage interracial adoption.

That combined with the lack of any sort of birth certificate,

makes this a practically impossible case.

Might I suggest you reach out to the Japanese Consulate,

where they can help find parents for the boy?

You know, of his own kind.

Listen, Gray.

Uh, sir.

As you're well aware,

I have been trying for years to adopt this kid,

give him some sort of legal standing.

I believe this young man has the makings of a physician,

and I intend to do everything within my power

to make that happen.

Well, it's extremely unlikely,

but I suppose we could appeal to the Child Welfare League

in Honolulu.

You'll have to cover the cost of the trip, my expenses,

a fee to prioritize this case over everything else.

It's gonna be quite the tidy sum, Dr. Lawrence.

Even then, I cannot guarantee

that they will give a favorable outcome

or even review your case.

This is everything I've got.

Make it a priority.

Thank you for coming. Please wait here.

No!

She can't walk.

I'm afraid it could cause permanent damage.

The young man has been learning under Doc for years.

Absolutely out of the question.

I don't even want him on our front porch,

let alone Grace's bedroom.

Send that boy away!

I'm sorry, but...

Wait here.

Grace, what happened?

- Are you all right? - I fell.

I thought I could walk, but it is really painful.

Fine, all right, fine.

Miss Hanabusa, go and fetch the boy.

Given the exceptional circumstances,

I'm allowing limited access

to see if you can bring some relief to my daughter's pain.

I must be out of my mind.

I have urgent business to attend to.

Sir.

Grace, please show our young doctor your ankle.

That is all that is injured, and that is all you need to see.

Uh, miss, could you put pressure on it?

I don't think it's broken.

It's, uh...

Yeah, I believe it's sprained.

That is good to hear.

I'll give a report back to Doc as soon as he returns.

Thank you for your service, Jo.

I will see you out.

Bye.

You're an assistant.

You know very well

not to treat anybody without me being present.

And why is that? I think I...

You jeopardize your entire future.

I mean, suppose something went wrong?

And you did it with Danielson's daughter, huh?

What are you thinking?

I leave town for a couple days...

It was just a sprained ankle, Doc.

I thought I was doing the right thing.

Yeah, you thought you were doing the right thing.

You thought you were ready. I didn't think you were ready.

Evidently, Danielson doesn't think that you're ready.

He sent word to Hilo.

They're bringing in another doctor.

Yeah, that's right.

When are you gonna learn to trust me?

Out of my chair.

When are you gonna trust me?

I still can't believe they let you in this place.

They've never let me in this joint.

I'm not sure if it's a rich haole thing,

but they got some pretty strange rules.

Yeah, I'm sure they do.

Look, let's just show 'em that you're a...

Well, you're a qualified assistant.

Let me have a look at you.

Tuck in your shirt.

And that I'm a proper doctor.

For the record, I'm still mad at you.

Let's go.

Let's see the princess, okay?

Morning, Mrs. Danielson.

Miss Grace?

Come in.

Is, uh, Mr. Danielson in?

He is engaged elsewhere.

I was given specific instructions, however.

Oh, I see.

What do we have here?

Okay.

So, young lady,

how's that leg of yours today?

Well, my leg's doing a bit better,

but now my stomach's not feeling too well.

I see.

Mine too.

Pardon me?

What?

Oh, um, nothing, Doc.

Something going around, perhaps.

Yeah, okay.

How shall we proceed then?

Is it the stomach you wish to see or...

I'm sorry, Miss Hanabusa,

but this just isn't practical.

I understand, but please do hurry.

Won't take but a jiffy.

Now...

let's a have a look at that ankle, missy, shall we?

- Is it sensitive? - Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

That's nice work.

How about that? How's it feel if I do that?

Still a bit painful.

It's a sprain, all right.

What about that secondary condition?

How do you recommend we proceed, Jo?

Well?

Huh. Hmm.

Um...

Have you had any vomiting or diarrhea?

No.

Well, if you would hold out your wrists, miss,

I, uh, I'm gonna check your pulse.

It's, uh...

a little faster than normal.

You know, perhaps you should take her temperature.

Um...

Yes, of course.

Jo, not that.

Here it is.

So I will be placing this under...

uh, your tongue,

if that's all right with you.

And, uh, we just gotta wait a moment.

- Okay, that's long enough. - Oh, yeah.

Well, what does it say?

Oh.

She has no temperature.

Ah, for she... No temperature.

Dead.

Uh, no fever.

What does she have?

Probably just a bug or nerves.

Nerves, huh?

Well, is there anything that we can give her?

Maybe we could give her some herbs?

Something like that?

Basil.

We can give her some basil.

Um...

Turn these basil leaves into a tea,

and, uh, if you've got a ginger root,

it'll help with her stomach.

Thank you, doctors.

Thank you.

- Uh, Miss Hanabusa, I... - Thank you.

- Keep that elevated. - I will.

Thank you, Doctor.

Jo will drop off some more herbs tomorrow.

Please do greet Mr. Danielson for us, would you?

I will. Thank you again.

Thank you.

So?

So what?

How do you think you performed?

Decisive? Confident?

- I was fine, I guess. - You were a babbling simpleton.

Okay, that's not really fair, Doc.

I saw the way you were looking at the girl, okay?

Look, doctoring requires focus,

emotional self-control, and discipline.

You're not a kid anymore.

All right, after you drop off those herbs,

meet me at the coffee mill.

When you get to the house, ring the bell,

hand the herbs to Miss Hanabusa.

Don't engage with any of the other family members

and stay out of the house, you got it?

- Yeah, I got it. - You got what?

Ring the bell, hand the herbs to Miss Hanabusa,

and I'll meet you at the coffee mill.

Okay.

And fix the hinges on that door.

Good morning, boy.

Could you tell me where the Danielson home is?

Yeah, it's about a 30-minute walk that way.

Speak up. I can't hear ya.

It's about a 30-minute walk that way!

All right, silly boy.

Not for me, it's not.

Damn contraption.

No, no, no, that won't be necessary.

We have a real doctor here.

Grace!

This is Dr. Reyes.

He recently moved to Hilo from the mainland.

He's here to offer us a second opinion.

Hello, Miss Grace.

Why, aren't you a true beauty.

She is.

How may I be of service, hmm?

She should be fine with those pills.

I would, however, like to check on her again.

Of course.

Why don't you stay for lunch?

How generous of you. That would be lovely.

Grace is lucky to have such a quality doctor.

She certainly is.

Oh, for God's sake. What's he doing here?

Good morning, Mr. Danielson, Miss Danielson.

Doc asked me to come by

and drop off some more herbs for Miss Grace.

No, no, no, no, that won't be necessary.

Miss Grace is now under the care of a proper physician.

You and the Doc may take care of the Orientals

and the other laborers.

Dr. Reyes will be taking care of the rest of us.

Yes, sir.

Oh!

♪ It's up to me It's up to me ♪

- Wonderful that you're staying. - Great day!

May I, Mrs. Danielson?

- Oh, please do. - Let's work up an appetite.

Oh, my!

I haven't danced like this for years.

Look, I, uh...

brought these for you.

Thank you.

Come with me.

It's okay.

Come on, Jo.

Uh, I'm Jo.

Yeah, I know.

I'm Grace.

I know.

- You have... - So what's...

Sorry.

- Um, you first. - Okay.

What's your favorite part of the island?

Well, I, uh...

I love to go up to the top of mountain.

- You should go. - Yeah, I'll go.

But first, just close your eyes.

And, uh...

just hold...

very...

still.

What is it?

Foreclosure.

Foreclosure.

How could you let this happen?

I told you to buy me more time, you stupid man.

I tried, sir.

I did exactly as you told me to.

Oh, I... I just have to... You enjoy yourself.

Oh, yeah, yeah, go, go.

Miss Grace, what are you doing down here?

Oh, um, I'm just getting a few flowers for my room.

Why, I also invested all of my private savings

and mortgaged my home.

It is all gone now.

I, too, am ruined.

You are ruined?

What do you even have to be ruined?

Get out!

What is it, son?

Everything okay?

It's fine, Mother. I have to go to Hilo tomorrow

to sort out an issue with the bank.

Do not patronize me.

Now tell me what the hell's going on.

The bank is repossessing the plantation, the businesses,

the buildings in town, all of it in 30 days.

We're going to be cast out into the street.

No. I put the house in Grace's name,

Miss Hanabusa as her official guardian.

The bank's can't touch it.

How could you let this happen?

I can't control the world coffee market, Mother.

I did what I had to do.

And while you, you have been guzzling gin,

I have been fighting every day to keep this plantation,

this town alive!

Keep your voice down.

Oh...

Think what people will say.

Surely...

Surely there's some way we can fix this.

It would take a miracle.

Oh, Nana?

I beg your pardon. Lovey, come for a spin.

Grace, I'm delighted that you have made a full recovery.

That's the magic of modern medicine.

You look fantastic.

When I was checking on you,

I noticed that you fancy fashion.

So I brought you something

that I think you just might like.

This is a fashion magazine.

Straight off the ship from the mainland.

Mr. Danielson.

Goodness gracious.

It's for you.

Thank you, Dr. Reyes.

Not at the table, Grace.

You're too generous, Doctor.

Maybe one day she'll be able to visit

the fashion capitals of the world, like I have.

Paris is simply...

It's magical.

I'm so... silly.

So, Danielson,

how is business these days?

The truth is, the Japanese independent farmers

are driving down the price of coffee.

Unbelievable.

The damn lava rocks don't allow us to farm sugar up here.

Thankfully, I've found ways to diversify,

and the business couldn't be better.

Why, that is good to hear.

Speaking of diversifying,

you should consider opening an office here on the Kona side.

Expand your practice.

You could work out of one of my buildings.

That's a kind offer, sir,

but don't you already have a doctor here?

- Dr. Lawrence? - Mm-hmm.

Well, his country medicine works for our pickers,

but I see a real need for proper medical attention

for the genteel folk.

Thank you, sir.

I just may take you up on it.

Well, how about you stay another day,

and I'll show you some options to consider?

Only if I can come by for another visit

to check on my most lovely patient.

Oh, yes, please do, Doctor.

Such wonderful people.

Boy.

- Um... - May I help you?

Sorry, sir, it's just your motorcar's something else.

Yes, it is.

I tried racing you back there, but you left me in the dust.

That was you? Hah!

You didn't even have a chance.

I run medicine for Doc all over this mountain,

and I've never been beaten until you.

Interesting.

Perhaps you'd like to be on a winning team...

and go for an evening ride.

Kinda nice, huh?

What do you do about your patients that don't have roads?

Well, all my patients have roads.

It's the magic of modern medicine...

at its best.

Um, would you be willing to teach me?

I could be your assistant. I'd work for free.

I've been running for Doc for...

I don't even know how many years.

Years you say, huh?

Well, I could use some help setting up the new office,

fetching supplies and such.

Local knowledge could come in handy.

Yeah, I could do all of that.

Absolutely.

But I could also assist you in doctoring.

I've treated Miss Grace Danielson three times now,

and I'm getting quite good at it.

You say you treated Grace Danielson?

Yeah. Well, the third time wasn't an official treatment.

Boy, do you have a crush on the Danielsons' daughter?

Mmm!

That's as likely to work out as you outrunning this car!

All right, we will meet in the morning at the hotel.

But first you must drink up.

Put some hair on your chest.

Impress the Danielson daughter.

Oh.

At least I know where you were.

You were supposed to be running medicine for me,

not gallivanting with the competition.

Well, he's offered to teach me modern techniques.

Modern techniques?

Why do you keep trying to stop me from doctoring?

- Are you drunk? - Mm-hmm.

Or are you just stupid or maybe both?

The only thing I'm trying to keep is our jobs.

Okay, now I'm going to bed.

Enjoy riding your bicycle.

I'm gonna be in a Ford Model T with four wheels.

Your bicycle has two. Two wheels.

Four wheels is better.

Yes.

Thank you.

Ah!

Boy, it is good that you are here.

Today you will learn from the best.

We have an emergency.

Now, you do speak Japanese, right?

- Yes, sir. - Open the door, please.

And start the engine. Thank you.

Here you are.

Let's go, go, go!

Right.

Hold. Thank you.

So there's been an emergency at the coffee mill.

The man we're going to see is refusing to speak English.

Did I ask you if you spoke Japanese?

Yes, sir, yes, you did, sir.

Hey!

Out of the way!

Ring the bell, boy.

Get off the road!

I'm a doctor! Out of the way!

Dusted him!

Good riddance!

These people...

What the hell is he doing here?

The message said the patient was only speaking Japanese,

which the boy understands.

I assume he has your trust, having treated your daughter.

Well, follow me.

It's my accountant.

Now, just fix him. He means a lot to the company.

How long has he been this way?

About an hour or so.

Well, what's he saying, boy? What's he saying?

He wishes to die.

Fugu. Puffer fish poison.

It's an honorable suicide.

Nonsense. We're going to save him.

Come here. Look, boy.

Hold him.

Boy, the smelling salts to revive him.

Sir, shouldn't we use the charcoal to bind the poison?

Right. Get me some.

Steady now.

Yes.

Yes.

Maybe if we can get him to vomit, sir?

What do you think I was trying to do?

Damn it.

Excuse me, sir, may I try?

Yeah, have at it.

And?

I'm afraid we may have been too late.

Your man has taken a heavy does of poison.

So sorry.

Looks like the charcoal's finally kicked in.

I assume this is some sort of crazy Jap tradition?

It's meant to avoid shame for the family.

It's a coward's way out for a Nip, if you ask me.

Read it.

Troubled marriage. Best not to pry.

Go on, off you go.

Come.

Find a new translator. That boy can't be trusted.

I couldn't agree with you more.

Hmmph!

Great day. It's gonna be a great day.

I don't think this is gonna work.

I hate to take Doc's best man.

Gray, Gray, listen to me, okay?

We've been through this before.

This isn't about legal precedent.

It's not about bureaucracy.

This is about a boy who deserves a future.

Your loyalty is admirable, Dr. Lawrence,

- but this is impossible. - Please, Mr. Gray, please.

- Make it happen. - Dr. Law...

And for dessert, my dear, we have your favorite:

mango pie with cream.

This is a very special occasion.

Today I talked with Dr. Reyes,

and we had a very important conversation

that concerns us all.

Okay.

The distinguished doctor

has taken an interest in you, my dear.

Quite flattering.

He lost his wife to typhoid 10 years ago

and has been seeking a replacement for some time.

Thank you.

A replacement?

A replacement, yes.

To be his wife.

Well, he's twice my age. You can't mean that I...

Dr. Reyes is clearly a man of means and status.

You'd be lucky to wed such a man,

regardless of what his birthdate is.

You think I wanted to marry your grandfather?

After the marriage,

he plans to invest in the plantation.

He has his own money.

Family money, of course.

I'm sure he didn't need to become a doctor.

No, he just wanted to serve his fellow man.

An admirable quality.

I'm off to Hilo tomorrow to inform the banks.

The doctor will be calling on you.

He says he has a surprise for us all.

Please be ready.

- A miracle. - Ah.

A miracle.

A miracle?

You think that selling your only daughter off is a miracle?

Gra...

What a rude, ungrateful child!

Whatever happens, Miss Grace, I'll be here with you.

Dr. Reyes will be here soon.

I got something for you.

Up from the valley peak.

It is the most beautiful place.

The ocean is so blue, and it goes on forever.

And I promise I'll take you there someday.

Um...

Yeah.

Naupaka flower.

They're beautiful.

Do you know the story?

Well, two of them together make a whole flower.

They're only by the sea and way up mauka.

Never in-between.

They're named after a princess

who fell in love with a commoner.

And for that, they were banished.

One by the sea, and one up the mountain.

Banished.

There's gotta be a way we can shorten the distance

between the mountain and the ocean.

Jo...

What's wrong?

Father found a match for me.

It's the new doctor.

Dr. Reyes.

The wedding's in two weeks

at Grandmother's favorite picnic spot.

He comes from a rich family in the mainland,

and Father says that it might be the last opportunity

that my family gets.

You have to go.

Grace, Grace, get over here.

Quick, sit down.

Ah.

Good evening.

Allow me to introduce you to my daughter Helen.

You must be Grace. I've heard so much about you.

Here you are, love.

Yes, there you are, Grace.

Oh, yes, would you like to sit down?

Indeed, help yourself.

Mmm! I will.

You have a very beautiful home.

I can't wait to move in.

Relax, honey.

We just got here.

That's a lovely color on you.

Right! Who would like some coffee?

- Oh, yes. - I would love some.

Good idea. Coffee.

- Mm, mm, mm, mm! - Thank you.

Volcano's at it again.

Yeah.

Hmm.

Danielson girl?

Her father is gonna marry her off to that rich haole.

There's nothing I can do about it.

It's like I didn't even exist.

You know, I'm sorry to hear that.

But I wouldn't give up, if I were you.

No way.

It's not over yet.

If you're meant to be with Grace,

it's gonna happen.

Trust me.

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow's wind will blow.

And blow it did.

On certain days,

the trade winds would carry the volcanic gasses

to our side of the island.

We call this white blanket "vog."

Doc and Jo were quite busy on these trying days.

These people should be home.

They shouldn't be breathing this in.

If they lose their crops, they lose their jobs.

Keep it coming, Jo.

This is peppermint oil.

Breathe it in.

Good work, Jo. Let's get outta here.

We wouldn't be in the is mess

if you'd taken better care of your wagon.

I hate this place.

Foggiest day of the year, and I'm stuck up here with you.

I'm gonna miss my train.

I'm supposed to be in Hilo by tonight,

and I'm gonna miss my train.

Go on, get out of...

- Just get out of the way! - Mr. Danielson!

Oh!

Mr. Danielson!

No! No!

Mr. Danielson? Mr. Danielson!

Danielson?

What's that?

Okay, okay, I got it, I got it.

All right, what happened?

He fell from up there. I think his leg's broken.

It's not the leg I'm worried about.

Mr. Danielson, where does your head hurt?

Subdural hematoma is my guess.

Not good.

Run and get Reyes.

We're gonna need that contraption of his

to get him outta here.

I'm on it.

Run.

Reyes! Reyes!

Hey!

We need help!

We need help!

What's all the ruckus, boy?

Mr. Danielson is injured! We need your motorcar!

I've got this one, madam.

Danielson, hang in there.

Doc? Doc! I got Reyes!

Good God, man.

At least get the gentleman out of the dirt.

Dirt isn't the problem here.

This man has a brain hemorrhage.

His head wound doesn't look significant.

He indicated pain at the front of his skull,

which is the opposite side of the head injury.

Yes, but you're leaping to conclusions.

Stop wasting time and help me move him to your motorcar!

Carefully.

Let's go.

Carefully.

Get these people out of here.

Nice and level.

Gently.

You, boy, get me my medical case now.

Doc, Doc, Doc, Doc.

If we don't relieve the pressure on the brain,

we might lose him.

No. Compound fracture is first.

- Before he comes to. - Absolutely not!

Craniotomy first.

What? You're gonna drill into the man's head?

That's primeval.

I should say so.

Yeah.

Where's that damn idiot kid

with my medical case?

Thank you!

No, not you. Don't touch me.

Father, they're trying to help you!

Grace...

Grace, I'm so sorry.

Please. I love you. Go.

You heard the man. Please leave now.

This man has every sign of swelling on the brain.

Continued head pain, slurred speech.

Look at his pupils, for crying out loud!

You will not bore a hole in his head.

My son is in good hands with Dr. Reyes.

That's right.

We don't need a backwoods country hick!

Hallelujah. Now get your things and get the hell out.

Okay.

I'll leave, but under professional protest.

Let's go.

Okay, let's move him up now. Let's go, let's go.

No, you shouldn't elevate his head!

Out of here! You get out.

You, you quack.

Get out!

Quack.

Let's go, Jo.

We'll be outside if you need us.

We're fine now. Let's get to his leg.

He's gone.

What happened?

Dr. Reyes said it was internal injury.

Lying fool.

Hmm.

So sorry for your loss, madam.

If only I'd been first at the scene...

Not your fault, Doctor.

Well, I should give you some time alone with him.

Sorry.

Grace.

Grace?

You need to go inside now.

Grace!

We really must.

Dr. Reyes.

Um...

about the wedding.

Yes.

Well, I guess we should reschedule.

Heavens no. I...

I think we should make it even sooner now.

We need a man about the house,

and someone to run the business.

Lovey, you are the light of good news

in the midst of such dark sorrow.

Helen, Mrs. Danielson's asked to move up the wedding date.

Grace will need your help now more than ever.

Of course, Father,

but I think there's something you both should see right now.

Grace...

we need to go inside now.

What is going on out here?

Grace, come inside.

You're not well.

I'm staying with Jo.

Get your hands off her!

Mrs. Danielson...

my intentions are honorable.

Honorable?

Honorable?

Get away from Dr. Reyes' fiancée.

You don't even have a last name.

Now, just a second, Mrs. Danielson.

- Jo's trying to do the right thing. - Shut up!

This has nothing to do with you.

I don't wanna marry him. I wanna be with Jo.

You will never talk like that again

in front of your future husband.

Do you hear me?

Long walk home.

It seems you have some competition, Father.

I'll take care of it. You just keep an eye on Grace.

I need to go to Hilo first thing in the morning to...

converse with Ford about...

the back payments.

We can't have our vehicle being repossessed

on my wedding day.

Do you actually care for this one, Father?

It doesn't matter.

No, I suppose not.

Do you, um...

Do you think we could've saved him?

Yes, I think so.

- I guess it doesn't matter now. - It does matter!

'Cause you did good.

You stayed cool, and you stayed focused under pressure,

and I'm proud of you.

And you proved to me that...

you are ready to assist me in doctoring.

Yeah, but Grace lost her father.

You can't let her lose you.

Do whatever it takes,

but you can't let that girl go.

What chance do I really have?

You heard what Mrs. Danielson said.

I don't even have a last name.

Mrs. Danielson.

You can't allow Mrs. Danielson to define who you are.

Doc, I'm an illegitimate bastard.

That is not true! You're my son!

Maybe not legally,

but you'll always be a better man

than that pompous poser of a doctor.

Believe that!

Speak of the devil himself.

What is that idiot trying to prove now?

Look out!

Doc?

- What should I do? - Jo!

I'm gonna run and get help.

No.

Not even you're that fast, Jo.

No, no, no.

You killed Doc.

You murderer!

As the only licensed doctor on this side of the island,

my official report will conclude...

this man was drunk,

he fell, he hit his head on a rock.

No witnesses.

As you hope to live,

you will leave this town,

never to return.

Or you will be next.

Doc!

Even when months and days are long,

life is short.

We all mourned the death of Mr. Danielson and Doc

in our own way.

Oh, I love this place.

Grace, when the good doctor arrives,

please be cheerful.

You do remember how to be cheerful, don't you?

Of course she does.

Jo?

So you're the elusive Jo.

Charles Gray, Attorney at Law.

Trust me when I say this is a miracle.

Grace.

Miss Hanabusa, please, go check on the flowers.

I will tend to Grace.

Coming through!

Yahoo!

What?

Damn kid.

Damn!

My father's motorcar should arrive any minute now.

There he is.

Remember what your grandmother said.

Remember to smile.

Miss Grace, someone else is coming.

What do you mean, someone else is coming?

Grace!

Run, Jo, run.

Damn it.

Look out!

You, you...

You've ruined all this.

- Grandmother, please. - You!

What right have you to even be here?

Who the hell do you think you are?

Jo Lawrence.

I'm the legally adopted son of Dr. Elias Lawrence.

Mrs. Danielson!

Please.

Mrs. Danielson, I have a name,

and I am of legal standing.

I've come here today to...

ask for your hand in marriage.

Even though Jo is now entitled,

Miss. Danielson has not yet come of age to be married.

Consent from a legal guardian is required.

Yeah, mm-hmm.

Consent is given.

What?

As her acting legal guardian

looking after her best interest,

I accept the proposal on behalf of Miss Grace.

You'll do no such thing!

That is if she wishes to accept.

No!

No, she's mine.

The house and the plantation...

are mine.

We're gonna be married, sweetheart.

We had an agreement.

Yeah. Danielson.

The Danielson family is,

I'm sorry to say,

bankrupt!

What?

What are you looking at me for?

All that remains is the house,

and that is in Grace's name.

Grace's name? Grace's name?

You charlatans!

Bankruptcy!

Bankruptcy!

Father!

- Bankruptcy! - Father!

- You half-Jap mutt. - Father, Father!

You're all a bunch of Nip lovers, aren't ya?

Don't you see it? The Japs are taking over!

Father! Father!

There's nothing here for us.

Could you give my car a push?

Fall down seven times,

stand up eight.

The bank did foreclose.

The town and the plantation were subdivided

and auctioned off,

and the so-called Dr. Reyes was arrested for murder.

Our town got a new clinic

and a new doctor.

And I...

I remained in the service

of the young doctor and his wonderful wife

for many good years.
