You get so you're no good

three days ago.

Hey, what's keeping you?
You're a half an hour late already.

- How are ya?
- Okay, but it's gettin' late.

I hate to wait around like this.
It makes me nervous.

You better hop a cab. I had some trouble

I'll meet ya over at the arena.

MAN'S VOICE:
Dear Davey...

we still haven't heard from you
yet this month...

and we wondered whether everything
was still all right with ya.

Out here everything's about the same.

I still get into Seattle every week,
and the ranch is prosperin' nicely.

Last week, I finally bought
Mr. Henderson's chestnut Arabian stallion.

Your Aunt Grace's

She can even take short rides

♪♪ [MUSIC BOX: "BRAHMS'S LULLABY"]

DAVEY NARRATING:
I locked her door and went home.

But first thing in the morning,
I went back across to see how she was.

My knockin' woke her up,
but she was all smiles and yawns...

- and invited me in for breakfast.
- [NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]

Later, over coffee,
she told me she had seen the fight...

and I suppose that got me
started talking about myself...

about what a wash up I was
and how I was going back to Seattle...

and work on my uncle's horse ranch.

But when I think back about it now...

I realize that all the
time I was talkin'...

the thing that was really in my mind
was to remember not to ask...

what it was her boss, Rapallo,
was so sorry for.

Anyway, let's talk about you.

Like--

Who are those people
in that picture over there?

And how'd you ever get messed up
with that dance hall guy?

- What's the matter?
- Nothing.

It's just that...

it's so funny that you should
ask those questions that way--

together that way.

Why?

Well, they have both so much
to do with each other.

How do you mean?

It's a sort of an involved story.
Do you really wanna hear it?

If you don't mind telling me,
I would very much.

I don't mind. For some reason,
I feel like telling you.

I've never told anybody before.

This is my father...

and this is my sister, Iris.

But I suppose it's really Iris's story.

She was a ballet dancer,
and everyone said she was very good.

She adored Daddy,
and, of course, she was his favorite.

But let me start from the beginning.

Iris was eight years old.

Father was a writer
with a growing reputation...

and Mother was very beautiful
and very intelligent.

They loved each other much
and they were very happy.

Then I was born,
and my mother died on the same day.

They say Father went on a two-week drunk
to celebrate the double event...

and after that, I don't think
he ever thought of another woman.

Time passed,
and Iris grew more beautiful each day.

She was the image of her mother.
Everyone said so.

Iris was Daddy's favorite,
and I was very jealous...

and maybe I began to hate her.

Daddy was good to me,
and maybe he loved me a little too.

By the time she was 20, she was
dancing with the Ballets Russes...

and Daddy was so proud of her.

And then I remember the day clearly.

It was my 13th birthday,
Sunday afternoon.

Iris came home excited
and told us of her marriage proposal.

The man wasn't bad-looking,
in his early 30s and very rich.

Father knew him and liked him...

but he couldn't stop laughing
when Iris told how she said no...

simply because the fella wanted her to
give up her dancing and just be his wife.

She never said if she loved him or not.

Then a few months later,
Daddy took sick and didn't get better.

And it turned out that he never would...

and that he would need
constant medical care until the end.

"Six months to two years," they said.

Iris's salary wasn't enough...

and in two months' time,
all our savings were gone.

I couldn't work.
I was only 13 and still in grade school.

The next thing I knew,
she married her rich suitor...

and we were all living in great style
on his estate in Long Island.

Daddy had the best
care money could buy...

and he seemed happy, despite everything.

Iris gave up her dancing,
according to the marriage bargain...

and did little else
but sit at Daddy's bedside.

Sick as he was, he always laughed a lot
when they were together.

I guess I hated her more than ever now.

A year passed like that.

Her husband was a sweet man,
but none of us paid much attention to him.

And by then
I'm sure he knew she didn't love him...

but he never said anything.

And then one cold winter morning...

the maid woke us
and said that Daddy was dead.

Iris was like a stone.

She didn't even blink.

I began to cry
and shout that I hated her...

that she'd only pretended with Daddy
and that she didn't ever love him.

She didn't say a word.

In his room, she stood quietly
over his body for a long time...

and smiled.

Then she went upstairs to her room
and put on their favorite record...

that was from one of her ballets.

She played it very loud.

A short time later, her husband found her
in bed with the covers drawn up to her neck.

She'd cut her wrists, and she was dead.

She left me a note.

She said she loved me.

She was sorry for making a mess
of everything between us.

A few days later I was in the city
attending to some legal things...

and I happened to pass the dance hall.

The sign read: "Pleasureland.
Dancing partners wanted."

I don't know what possessed me.
I went up. I actually took the job.

I don't understand any part of it.

Every night
I-I worked in that depraved place--

a human zoo.

I kept thinking,
"At least Iris never had--

had to dance like this."

And then I started to feel less unhappy.

Come on. Let's go out for a walk.

DAVEY NARRATING: She got dressed
and we went out for a walk...

and I bought her an ice cream
and saw her laugh for the first time.

I suppose we must've walked for hours,
and slowly her mood changed...

and she became very happy
and optimistic about life in general.

But when I told her I was planning to take
the train back to Seattle the next day...

- she got serious again and very quiet.
- [TRAIN ENGINE CHUGGING]

I didn't know it then, but I was already in
over my head and I couldn't have cared less.

We didn't get back until after lunch,
and then in her apartment--

Something's happened.

I know.

Do you know?

Sure. You kissed me.

Is that all?

That's all I saw,
and I was watching all the time.

[WHISPERING]
I love you.

Love me? That's funny.

Why is it so funny? Why?

It's a mistake to
confuse pity with love.

I love you, Gloria.

DAVEY NARRATING: Lookin' back now, I really
don't know what her reasons were then...

but she agreed
to come out to Seattle with me.

I should've had sense enough, though,
to know that it was no good...

and that she was so scared
she'd grab at anything.

But I was kiddin' myself, and all I could
think of was how much I wanted her.

We made train reservations and wired
Uncle George to brace himself for a niece...

and then we began to get
our finances together.
