0:01:06 > 0:01:08NARRATOR: What could be more symbolic of America

0:01:08 > 0:01:10than today's schoolgirl?

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Intelligent, restrained, dignified...

0:01:13 > 0:01:15BIG BAND MUSIC PLAYS

0:01:20 > 0:01:21Oh...

0:01:21 > 0:01:25We still haven't gone back far enough.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Let's look at the girl of 1913.

0:01:27 > 0:01:28HORN HOOTS

0:01:31 > 0:01:33ENGINE BACKFIRES

0:01:33 > 0:01:38Let's go further back, shall we? The girl of 1905.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40Now, there WAS a girl.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Demure, sedate, obedient.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48I'm sure we can do better than this if we just put our minds to it.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52- It isn't very good, is it? - A good artist isn't made overnight.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55You've only been with us a short time.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58I'll help you when we begin soup plates.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Miss Ingram, can't I start my REAL art classes?

0:02:01 > 0:02:07There's no nicer accomplishment or better foundation for a woman than china painting.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11I've got a foundation. I've been painting at home for years.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15Let me see, now. I don't know where else I'd put you.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17What about the life class?

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Oh, that's too advanced. Next year, perhaps.

0:02:20 > 0:02:25I take the girls out in the country and we all do a landscape.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Cows, trees, some charming sycamores not far away.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33Miss Ingram, we don't understand each other.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35I mean a life class. The human figure.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39Rembrandt says it's the basis of all design.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42That's what I need. My anatomy's terrible.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44The human figure?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47You mean...unclothed?

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Certainly.- Uh! Miss Sheldon!

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Oh...

0:02:55 > 0:02:59Miss Sheldon, I want to have a talk with you.

0:02:59 > 0:03:00Go into my office.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02TRAIN WHISTLE HOOTS

0:03:02 > 0:03:04- Good morning, Dr Sheldon. - Good morning.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06TRAIN APPROACHES

0:03:17 > 0:03:19- Hello, Papa.- Hello, Dinah.

0:03:20 > 0:03:25I'm glad you're here, dear, but your telegram didn't make it clear

0:03:25 > 0:03:27why you're home ten days before your vacation.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Anything wrong?

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Well, sort of.

0:03:34 > 0:03:35Suspended?

0:03:37 > 0:03:40- Expelled. - TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWS

0:03:50 > 0:03:51How's Momma?

0:03:52 > 0:03:53Fine.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56And Gene?

0:03:56 > 0:03:58He's fine, too.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00So are Mark and Sis. So is Ada.

0:04:00 > 0:04:01So am I.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05How are the neighbours?

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Tom's fine.

0:04:09 > 0:04:10How are YOU?

0:04:12 > 0:04:13Fine.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18Papa, if this was the first time I'd had trouble,

0:04:18 > 0:04:20you wouldn't think it was my fault.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24I don't think so now, dear, unless you say it is.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27- She called me immoral.- Who did?

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Miss Ingram. Merely because I wanted to paint the human figure.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33If I can't be a good painter,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35there's nothing in life worth going on for.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Any other basis for this charge of immorality?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Yes. I said two petticoats were enough.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46She said no respectable woman wears less than five.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50And that I shouldn't have gone to a political meeting.

0:04:50 > 0:04:57I said, "How can women be intelligent if they don't know about politics and economics?"

0:04:57 > 0:05:00She said I wasn't there to be intelligent, but to be a lady.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02I said I didn't have to learn that...

0:05:02 > 0:05:05SHE CONTINUES TALKING

0:05:12 > 0:05:14HORSE NEIGHS

0:05:14 > 0:05:19..Then she called the debate off, after I'd spent DAYS writing my speech!

0:05:19 > 0:05:21It was about votes for women.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23She said I was immoral,

0:05:23 > 0:05:27merely because I went to a political meeting alone.

0:05:27 > 0:05:33She said I was to write her a letter of apology and stay in my room on Sundays.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36I said I wasn't immoral, and I couldn't write the apology,

0:05:36 > 0:05:40and she said I was and I must, so...here I am.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I don't see how anyone could have expelled you, Di.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49I don't see how they could have gotten a word in edgeways to do it!

0:05:49 > 0:05:50No, Papa.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Dinah, I... don't like you being expelled.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Miss Ingram's right. Immorality takes many forms.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Yes, Papa.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05But I don't believe anyone should be punished or expelled

0:06:05 > 0:06:08because of the difference between two petticoats and five.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Nor for going to a political meeting.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14But I would prefer you not to go alone to them.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Yes, Papa.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Hello, Momma!- Hello, dear!

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Well, you look all right.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Is anything wrong at school, dear?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36I was...expelled.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Expelled? Dinah...but what for?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42For er...three petticoats, Lily.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50- Why do you think she's home before vacation?- Shhh!

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Children... Andrew... Sit down.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55Everything's ready.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Gene... Mark...

0:07:12 > 0:07:13Sis...

0:07:15 > 0:07:18In order to save you from a severe case of indigestion

0:07:18 > 0:07:21caused by prolonged curiosity...

0:07:22 > 0:07:25..your sister Dinah has been expelled.

0:07:25 > 0:07:26- CHILDREN ALL TALK AT ONCE - Grace.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32HALTING TROMBONE PLAYING

0:07:33 > 0:07:36TROMBONE: "My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean"

0:07:49 > 0:07:53Gene, can't you play anything else?

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Oh...ishkabibble.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00SUDDEN BURST OF TROMBONE

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Come on, Miss Dinah.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09Your momma ain't paying me 50 cents a day to sit still.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12- I'll be done in a minute, Ada. - The washing won't be.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Do you mean to say we only pay you 50 cents a day?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Why, that's wage slavery.

0:08:18 > 0:08:23Things will change when we women can vote. You'll be emancipated.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Been emancipated.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Dinah!

0:08:30 > 0:08:33- Haven't I asked you?- I need models and I can't afford to pay them.

0:08:33 > 0:08:38- Can't you find someone who will sit still for nothing? - Only if they're unconscious!

0:08:39 > 0:08:41When I unpacked for you, I found...

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Where did these things come from?

0:08:44 > 0:08:48- Boxing gloves, Momma.- Yes, I know.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51A man on the train helped me with my case.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55I started talking to him and he turned out to be James J Jeffries.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59He gave me the gloves as a souvenir.

0:08:59 > 0:09:04He even showed me his special punch he used on Bill O'Brien.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07Dinah, nice girls don't speak to strange men.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Ada... I think we need more starch in these shirts.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11Yes! >

0:09:11 > 0:09:15Momma, didn't you hear what I said? I met James J Jeffries.

0:09:15 > 0:09:20Yes, I heard you. And I want you to remember not to talk to strangers.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Momma, a man like that isn't a stranger.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26He's the world's champion.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29When a man reaches that eminence, he's not a stranger.

0:09:29 > 0:09:30He belongs to his public.

0:09:30 > 0:09:35When I'm a famous painter, I'll belong to my public.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Great artists never lose touch with the little people.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40It would comfort me if you didn't lose touch

0:09:40 > 0:09:42with the dustpan and broom.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Start with the back porch, dear.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48Go and put these hideous leather paws in the hall closet.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49Yes, Momma.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28Oh!

0:10:32 > 0:10:36I thought your school vacation didn't start for some time yet.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Well, it... It doesn't. I...

0:10:39 > 0:10:40I came home early.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Any difficulties?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Well, er...in a way.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Well, er...in what way?

0:10:47 > 0:10:49I was...expelled.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Hm.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Is there a connection between your expulsion

0:10:54 > 0:10:56and those instruments of fisticuffs?

0:10:56 > 0:11:01Oh, these? Oh, no. A friend of mine gave them to me.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Ah, a friend.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05James J Jeffries, no doubt?

0:11:05 > 0:11:07Why, yes. How did you know?

0:11:07 > 0:11:10I have my ways. I hav...!

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Di! What are you doing home?

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Hello, Tom.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Did they close school early or something?

0:11:35 > 0:11:39No, I...grew dissatisfied with certain things

0:11:39 > 0:11:43at Miss Ingram's seminary and terminated my stay there.

0:11:43 > 0:11:44Oh? What things?

0:11:44 > 0:11:47The artistic temperament

0:11:47 > 0:11:50doesn't need mundane reasons for decisions, Tom.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- No, I guess not.- How's your aunt?

0:11:53 > 0:11:57Fine. She doesn't like me working at Steuben's after class,

0:11:57 > 0:11:59but I need the money.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02I didn't think you liked working with horses.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04Not in the stable. The garage.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Well, I'd better go.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09- I'll see you at choir practice. - Yeah.

0:12:09 > 0:12:10I'll meet you at Steuben's.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15No, Di. I'm walking Bernice Eckert over.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19- Who?- Bernice Eckert. They moved into Dean Street.

0:12:19 > 0:12:24I'll introduce you. She's really keen. You'll like her.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26I'm sure I will.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29She's so...continental, sort of.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32She's got that way, even when she just walks.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34I'm anxious to see if you agree.

0:12:34 > 0:12:38Well, I gotta go to work. See you later. Bye.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40Bye, Tom.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Continental!

0:12:54 > 0:12:57THEY SING A SLOW HYMN

0:12:57 > 0:13:01# ..the lamb of God

0:13:01 > 0:13:06# Before our father's throne... #

0:13:06 > 0:13:08No, no, no, children. No.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11When you sing that line, you mustn't just say words.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14You must really stand before the throne.

0:13:14 > 0:13:19You must be up there. Give me that up-there feel.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21Now, then. Once again.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25Make me feel transported to a place in the heavenly cloud.

0:13:25 > 0:13:31# Before our father's throne

0:13:31 > 0:13:36# We poor unite in prayer

0:13:36 > 0:13:39# Our fears, our hopes

0:13:39 > 0:13:43# Our aims are one

0:13:43 > 0:13:50# Our comfort and our cares

0:13:50 > 0:13:56# We share our mutual woes

0:13:56 > 0:14:01# Our mutual burdens bear

0:14:01 > 0:14:08# And offer for each other's woes

0:14:08 > 0:14:15# A sympathising tear. #

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Well? Don't you agree with me?

0:14:19 > 0:14:22She's very attractive. I understand why you feel as you do.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26You know, Bernice is very deep.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28She has moods, I mean.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31Sometimes I don't understand her.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34Like not letting me walk home with her now and not telling me why.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37If a person has anything to say, they should say it.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Yes, but you're different.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43I don't see why.

0:14:43 > 0:14:44Well, you come to the point.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48I merely don't believe in stooping to subterfuge.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51You always say what's on your mind.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- I'll bet that's what happened at school.- Partly.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58That's what I thought. Well, are you going to paint here?

0:14:58 > 0:15:03Heavens, no. There's only one place to study true art Paris.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05- Paris?- Of course.

0:15:07 > 0:15:10I think your family would rather have you marry a nice fella

0:15:10 > 0:15:14and settle right down here in Baltimore.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16I'd rather commit suicide.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30You've certainly changed since you've been away at school.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33You have to know what you want in this world.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35- Yeah. Well, I think I know what- I- want,

0:15:35 > 0:15:39but...I don't know how Bernice feels about it.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41We're very lucky, really.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- Why?- Knowing what we want.

0:15:44 > 0:15:45Most people don't.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49But I have a long, arduous road ahead of me.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Painting is what you want. You stick with it.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54If I can help you, just say the word.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Thanks, Tom. If I can help you get what YOU want,

0:15:57 > 0:15:58I'll be only too glad.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Well, thanks.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09You know, I've always felt like you were my best friend.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12Talking to you is just like talking to another man.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14I'm certainly glad.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16- Well, goodbye.- Bye.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Making flutter eyes...

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Dropping hymn books...

0:16:28 > 0:16:29- ­- Come in.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Oh, you're still busy.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34It's all right, Dan.

0:16:34 > 0:16:39- Mr Fletcher, our senior warden. Mrs Warford.- How do you do?

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Joined the parish, Mrs Warford? Well, that's fine.

0:16:43 > 0:16:47I like nothing better than to see a prosperous couple come in.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Yes. Mrs...

0:16:49 > 0:16:51There's nothing finer for a family

0:16:51 > 0:16:56than their own permanent pew with brass plate attached.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58The contributions go to our mortgage fund,

0:16:58 > 0:17:03which can always bear up to welcome additions.

0:17:03 > 0:17:08Well, some day, of course, we'd like to, but...right now...

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Aye.

0:17:11 > 0:17:15Go ahead, Andrew. I'll sit and wait till you're finished.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17I won't take long, Dr Sheldon.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20They say a tale of woe is soon told.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24Though I don't know why it falls so much harder on some than others.

0:17:24 > 0:17:29- Didn't your husband get the job? - Yes, but now he can't start.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- Why?- The tool kit you had the machine shop lend him?

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- Gone.- You mean...stolen?

0:17:35 > 0:17:40The whole box. And he can't work without them.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42And a new set will cost 20.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44DAN CLEARS THROAT

0:17:44 > 0:17:46We just haven't got the money, Dr Sheldon.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49And if he can't work, he can't get paid,

0:17:49 > 0:17:50and then what about the children?

0:17:50 > 0:17:55- Oh, I don't know how these things... - Yes, yes...- Ahem!

0:17:55 > 0:17:58There they sat, on the porch.

0:17:58 > 0:18:02The next morning, gone. Every hammer and saw.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04A new set is...20.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08We'll pay you back in no time, Dr Sheldon.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Ah...hem(!)

0:18:10 > 0:18:12Out of Ed's first pay cheque.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15We don't like to be spongers, Dr Sheldon.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17DAN SPLUTTERS

0:18:18 > 0:18:22You just wouldn't believe the things that happen to us.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24First, my cousin got sick...

0:18:24 > 0:18:28Let's pray heaven favours you more these next months.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Oh, thank you, Dr Sheldon.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36< And you'll never regret it. Never.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39And thank YOU, Mr Fletcher.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42And er...goodbye.

0:18:42 > 0:18:43Goodbye.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46DAN CLEARS THROAT

0:18:46 > 0:18:50Aye, 'tis a blessed emotion, charity.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53But sometimes, your generosity puzzles me.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56The cheque can't be covered.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00It's not drawn on the charity account, Dan.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02It's from the Van Laden Memorial Fund.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04But Mrs Van Laden left the money

0:19:04 > 0:19:07to buy a stained glass window to her husband's memory.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10We'll pay it back from the Easter offerings.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13It's practically malfeasance.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17I doubt the vestrymen will like it.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19These things didnae happen in Dr Reed's time here.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22I know, Dan. I'll never be the man he was.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26I'm not denying you've done some nice work.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Many's the time I said those very words to my wife.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34"The pastor," I says to Mary, "is a good man."

0:19:34 > 0:19:36- But with faults.- Aye.

0:19:38 > 0:19:39Well, now, as to the books...

0:19:41 > 0:19:44Start here on the pew holders' reference.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Gift from a parishioner. Very nice.

0:19:50 > 0:19:51No, Dinah painted it.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Er...she's home early, isn't she?

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Yes, she is.

0:19:57 > 0:20:02Hm. Well, 'tis nice to have a lass with talent and spirit.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05Especially if the spirit's guided and restrained

0:20:05 > 0:20:07in its proper channels.

0:20:07 > 0:20:11- Yes.- 'Tis a matter for thought, all right, these days.

0:20:11 > 0:20:16Young girls traipse around with all manner of people.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18Even pugilists.

0:20:18 > 0:20:19Now, that's a thought, all right.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24The important thing is recognising the danger signals

0:20:24 > 0:20:27in their changing the route of the train.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31- Do you not agree? - Oh, I do indeed, Dan.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34As long as one does not derail the train

0:20:34 > 0:20:36so it never gets to its destination.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Hm. Oh, aye.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40Ahem.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44No, no. Stand up straight. Take advantage of your height.

0:20:44 > 0:20:45Yes, Pa.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48Keep your guard high.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53I wish certain people would leave my paints alone

0:20:53 > 0:20:55and stick with the trombone.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- I haven't touched your paints. - Keep your guard up.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Where to this morning, dear?

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Oh, just anywhere.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10It's wonderful going out to paint, with no problems.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15- I hope things stay that way. - Why shouldn't they?

0:21:15 > 0:21:18I can't get in any problems just painting.

0:21:18 > 0:21:19Bye.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Well...prepare to defend yourself, Gene.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Hey, hey. Stay on your feet.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55HE SNORES

0:22:09 > 0:22:12HE SNORES

0:22:12 > 0:22:16Not bad. Not bad at all, for a woman.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Needs a mite more red, though.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- Thank you very much. - No trouble at all, little lady.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Now, would you please go away?

0:22:24 > 0:22:28There's no question. You need red there, in the middle, on the nose.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32That nose is OK.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35I don't wish to disagree, but I've seen lots of paintings,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37and, that way, it ain't no good.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Looks good to me. Ain't that right? - That's right.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42Looks like you're wrong.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45When I'm wrong, I'll let you know.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48That nose ain't no good without more red.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56- Here. Is that enough red for you? - MEN ALL LAUGH

0:22:59 > 0:23:03- Gentlemen, now, please! - Sit down, darling, will you?

0:23:03 > 0:23:06Stop that, please, gentlemen.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08MEN ALL SHOUT

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Gentlemen, please!

0:23:11 > 0:23:15- Oh, you've ruined my painting! - Gentlemen!

0:23:15 > 0:23:16WHISTLE TRILLS

0:23:16 > 0:23:18HE SNORTS

0:23:18 > 0:23:21POLICEMAN BLOWS WHISTLE < Gentlemen!

0:23:23 > 0:23:25TELEPHONE RINGS

0:23:31 > 0:23:32Hello?

0:23:32 > 0:23:35Who? Mr Wade?

0:23:35 > 0:23:36No.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Oh, yeah, I'm Tom Wade.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Do I know a WHO?

0:23:42 > 0:23:43A Miss Smith?

0:23:43 > 0:23:45No, I don't.

0:23:45 > 0:23:46Say, who's this calling?

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Oh. Oh, I see.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52No, Sergeant, I don't.

0:23:52 > 0:23:53What? A painter?

0:23:55 > 0:23:57A Miss Smith, huh?

0:23:57 > 0:23:59No, I never heard of her before.

0:24:00 > 0:24:01Yeah, must be some mistake.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Yes, sir. Bye.

0:24:08 > 0:24:09What was it, Tom?

0:24:09 > 0:24:13Nothing, Mr Steuben. Police station.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15What did they want, Tom?

0:24:15 > 0:24:16Wrong number, Mr Steuben.

0:24:17 > 0:24:21- Who did they ask for, Tom? - Me, Mr Steuben.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Then, how could it be a wrong number, Tom?

0:24:26 > 0:24:29They must have got my name by mistake, Mr Steuben.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31What did they say, Tom?

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Wanted me to put up 50 bail, Mr Steuben.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38What for, Tom?

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Some woman they arrested, Mr Steuben.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42What did they arrest her for, Tom?

0:24:43 > 0:24:46For causing a riot, Mr Steuben.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48How did she do that, Tom?

0:24:48 > 0:24:51She was painting, Mr Steuben.

0:24:51 > 0:24:55Fainting? Ah, women are always fainting.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58No, not fainting. Painting.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00She's a painter, Mr Steuben.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05METAL CLANGS

0:25:10 > 0:25:13What took you so long getting here?

0:25:13 > 0:25:15I don't just go around carrying 50, you know.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17I had to go to the bank first.

0:25:17 > 0:25:21- Why did they fine you so much? - They didn't. It's bail.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24I won't appear, and the money will be forfeited.

0:25:24 > 0:25:28As they don't have my right name, that'll be the end of it.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32- 50 bail? - 10 apiece. For five of us.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Good day, sir.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39You bailed THEM out with MY money?

0:25:39 > 0:25:43Yes. If it wasn't for my painting, they wouldn't have fought.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46I couldn't leave them. That would be selfish.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54My deepest gratitude, young lady.

0:25:54 > 0:25:55Mighty nice of you to get us out.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- Oh, that's all right. - Yeah. Glad to do it.

0:25:58 > 0:26:03- It was a nice picture just the way it was.- With a bit more red.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05< Oh, I wouldn't say that.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07< You wouldn't?

0:26:07 > 0:26:08< No, I wouldn't.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11I say it was great just the way it was.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14< I still think it needed more red.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17Wait a minute. There was enough red in it.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20ALL CLAMOUR AT ONCE

0:26:20 > 0:26:22MEN CONTINUE TO ARGUE

0:26:27 > 0:26:30Why do you have to act as if you were my keeper?

0:26:30 > 0:26:33Because I only have three dollars left.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40Let us not inconvenience the law.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46I'll pay you back the money, Tom.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- Yeah.- It may not be right away, but I will.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51Oh, sure. I know that.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53What are you so worried about, then?

0:26:53 > 0:26:55What am I worried about?! Work.

0:26:55 > 0:27:01A chain, a crankshaft and a broken axle to fix by tonight.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Plus studying, plus writing a speech for the Forum Society.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06And you drag me down to jail.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08- I'm sorry.- Doesn't help.

0:27:08 > 0:27:09No.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19Tom, that speech you have to write.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21- What's it about?- Equality.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Equality? What kind?

0:27:24 > 0:27:26Any old kind of equality.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27Oh.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Tom, I have a marvellous idea.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33I have a wonderful speech on that, all written,

0:27:33 > 0:27:35for a debate we were meant to have at school.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38You can use it.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40No, Di, I couldn't do that.

0:27:41 > 0:27:45Please do. I feel so badly about the trouble I've caused you.

0:27:46 > 0:27:50It'll make me feel I've done something to show my gratitude.

0:27:50 > 0:27:51Please.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54Well...

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Well, all right, if it'll make you feel better.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Oh, it will.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02If I could have it any time before tomorrow night.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05And make it nice and logical. Bye.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10Tom, you're going to have a speech people will never forget.

0:28:10 > 0:28:11Bye.

0:28:16 > 0:28:17Tom!

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Thanks so very much for helping me.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Oh, that's all right, Di.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30"Members of the Forum Society and other guests,

0:28:30 > 0:28:34"equality is that precious state guaranteed to all citizens by the constitution.

0:28:34 > 0:28:38"It is what we cherish above all, along with freedom."

0:28:46 > 0:28:47Dinah...

0:28:49 > 0:28:50Will you come here a minute, please?

0:29:01 > 0:29:04Mr Fletcher's just told us about some...

0:29:04 > 0:29:10happenings yesterday, that er...sound...fantastic.

0:29:10 > 0:29:13He just wanted you to tell us what you can about them.

0:29:16 > 0:29:17They're true.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19But why didn't you come and tell us?

0:29:19 > 0:29:22I just didn't want anybody to know.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Coming on top of all the other troubles I've caused...

0:29:26 > 0:29:27..well, I couldn't tell you.

0:29:27 > 0:29:33- But you know you can always talk to us about anything.- I'm so sorry.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35Being sorry will not help.

0:29:35 > 0:29:39You don't realise what damage you've done to your father.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42Just a minute. Now's not the time to mention...

0:29:42 > 0:29:46It IS time she got a sense of responsibility.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48- She SHOULD know.- Know what, Momma?

0:29:48 > 0:29:52Well, dear, the bishop's retiring.

0:29:52 > 0:29:55And your father was mentioned to succeed him.

0:29:55 > 0:29:56Before their meeting last night,

0:29:56 > 0:30:00George Weil's cousin, who works at the City Clerk's Office...

0:30:00 > 0:30:05- Well...- She saw you and Wade come out of the police station

0:30:05 > 0:30:08with several suspicious characters.

0:30:08 > 0:30:12Because of something I did, you won't nominate Papa for bishop?

0:30:12 > 0:30:15That's not within my powers.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19The others feel it's a bad reflection on your father.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21They postponed the nominations.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23Oh, Papa, I feel so awful.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27- You'd make such a wonderful bishop. - That he would. >

0:30:27 > 0:30:30I'm very happy just being pastor of St Edmunds.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33- I don't know if I'm fitted to be bishop.- You are.

0:30:33 > 0:30:34- SOBBING:- Oh, you are.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42If you ask my opinion, the young lady should be punished.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44Aye. Properly punished.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48What would you suggest, Dan?

0:30:48 > 0:30:50It should not be light. I warn you.

0:30:50 > 0:30:54Mm... How about flogging in the public square?

0:30:54 > 0:30:56Or ducking in the ducking stool?

0:30:56 > 0:31:00Andrew, I counsel ye. Ye cannae take this matter lightly.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02I don't, Dan.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05But as far as I can see, she hasn't done anything to merit punishment.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09The others will take no such-like view of it.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12It's your future I'm concerned with, Andrew.

0:31:13 > 0:31:17I let the Lord take care of that. He does a better job of it.

0:31:17 > 0:31:23Well, if you'll not work for your own advancement, I cannae help you.

0:31:23 > 0:31:24Good day, Andrew.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26Goodbye, Dan.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Dinah...

0:31:41 > 0:31:43She's on the porch.

0:32:00 > 0:32:04Oh, Papa, I feel so awful about what I've done to you.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06You haven't done anything to me.

0:32:06 > 0:32:10Yes, I have. I'm always causing things like this, somehow.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13And other people get hurt. And now you.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19I heard what Mr Fletcher said.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22He's right. I should be punished.

0:32:22 > 0:32:25- For what?- Well, for...

0:32:25 > 0:32:27For being eager to paint?

0:32:28 > 0:32:31Maybe it was unwise to wander into that particular district,

0:32:31 > 0:32:34but then, art has no geography.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36But some people think I did wrong.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40I'm all mixed up.

0:32:40 > 0:32:41Yes, I know you are.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46HE CHUCKLES

0:32:46 > 0:32:50It's a curious thing, but something like this happened to me once.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54I didn't do anything wrong either, though many thought I did.

0:32:54 > 0:32:58- But I learned something from it. - What happened to you?

0:33:00 > 0:33:03Well, when I was quite young, I had an ambition.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07It...may sound a little odd to you now, but...

0:33:07 > 0:33:09I was very sincere about it.

0:33:09 > 0:33:11I wanted to be a...

0:33:12 > 0:33:14..ballroom dancer.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16- Papa, you didn't?!- Yes, I did.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19And I was pretty good, too, if I do say so.

0:33:19 > 0:33:23Of course, your grandpa and grandma were unalterably opposed.

0:33:23 > 0:33:27Said it was unbecoming and unconventional

0:33:27 > 0:33:29and forbade me to do it.

0:33:30 > 0:33:34Grandpa was running for County Recorder, but I didn't know that,

0:33:34 > 0:33:36and I ran off to join a touring act.

0:33:36 > 0:33:40Only the nicest hotels, of course, and an occasional theatre.

0:33:40 > 0:33:45- How old were you?- 18.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48I thought at the time it was my destined vocation.

0:33:48 > 0:33:52It seemed to me that anything I wanted that badly was meant to be.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Then you DO understand.

0:33:55 > 0:33:56Indeed I do.

0:33:56 > 0:33:58Well, what happened then?

0:33:58 > 0:34:01Oh, I lasted three weeks.

0:34:01 > 0:34:05The act... How do they say it? ..folded up, and I went home.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09For weeks, I was overwhelmed with guilt,

0:34:09 > 0:34:12because Grandpa lost the election.

0:34:12 > 0:34:16And I thought it was due to my...escapade.

0:34:16 > 0:34:17But it wasn't.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20He had lost it, anyway.

0:34:20 > 0:34:21You know...

0:34:21 > 0:34:27I don't think even your mother knows about my brief career as a dancer.

0:34:27 > 0:34:31I think it was wonderful of you to go out and do what you wanted,

0:34:31 > 0:34:34no matter what people thought.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38Perhaps it explains where you get some of your...unconventionality.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42Now, let's go inside

0:34:42 > 0:34:44and have breakfast, shall we?

0:34:44 > 0:34:48I only wish I were more like the kind of daughter you deserve.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54I've never been quite sure what kind of a daughter I deserve,

0:34:54 > 0:34:57but I do know you're exactly the kind of daughter I WANT.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14Tom, sorry I'm late.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17I just had an idea for another paragraph at the last minute.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20I wish I could have read it at least once.

0:35:20 > 0:35:24- Well, good evening, Miss Sheldon. - Good evening.- Hello, Beehouse.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30- Hey, Tom, come on. You're late. You're on first.- Coming.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32Is my tie straight?

0:35:32 > 0:35:33Yes.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- I'm sitting with my parents. - I'll help you find them.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42AUDIENCE MEMBERS CHATTER

0:35:48 > 0:35:52And now our first speaker, Mr Thomas Wade of the senior class.

0:35:59 > 0:36:03"Members of the Forum Society and honoured guests,

0:36:03 > 0:36:10"equality is that precious state guaranteed to all citizens by the constitution.

0:36:10 > 0:36:14"But now I ask you do we have equality?

0:36:14 > 0:36:16"And I answer we do not."

0:36:17 > 0:36:22"I invite you, ladies and gentlemen, to look carefully at one citizen.

0:36:22 > 0:36:26"That uncomplaining, faithful servant who gets no wage.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29"That helpless creature without rights.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31"The American wife."

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- The American wife? - LAUGHTER

0:36:37 > 0:36:40SPORADIC LAUGHTER

0:36:40 > 0:36:41"A-A-And...

0:36:41 > 0:36:45"And when she is not grudging, what then?

0:36:45 > 0:36:47" 'What then?' I say to you."

0:36:47 > 0:36:49That mush don't sound like Tom.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51I beg your pardon, Mr Beehouse.

0:36:51 > 0:36:56Don't get mad. I just can't believe Tom ever thought junk like that.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59That's merely because you don't know the real Tom.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03"..It is her lord and master who decrees..."

0:37:04 > 0:37:07"Members of the Forum Society and..." No.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10LAUGHTER

0:37:11 > 0:37:14"..how she shall spend that leisure.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17"As his vassal. Not a human being with equal rights,

0:37:17 > 0:37:20"but a mere plaything of man."

0:37:20 > 0:37:23LAUGHTER

0:37:24 > 0:37:26Shhh! Shhh!

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Some people have no manners at all.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32"Equality.

0:37:32 > 0:37:33"Ladies and gentlemen...

0:37:33 > 0:37:35"I laugh."

0:37:35 > 0:37:37LAUGHTER

0:37:37 > 0:37:40"Pray, do not take MY word for it.

0:37:40 > 0:37:43"Who am I but a humble...woman?"

0:37:44 > 0:37:46- I mean, man. - LAUGHTER CONTINUES

0:37:52 > 0:37:55"Let's go to a truly great human being.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58"Let me give you his exact words."

0:37:58 > 0:38:00HE CLEARS THROAT

0:38:01 > 0:38:05"The words of the bard Alfred Lord Tennyson

0:38:05 > 0:38:07"on the subject of woman's place in marriage.

0:38:07 > 0:38:12" 'He will hold thee when his passion shall have spent its novel force.

0:38:12 > 0:38:17" 'Something better than his dog. A little dearer than his horse.' "

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Bravo! Bravo!

0:38:20 > 0:38:25- Bravo! Bravo! - "There are two choices open to us.

0:38:25 > 0:38:29"Either this evil is ended, or woman herself will arise,

0:38:29 > 0:38:31"in just wrath, to claim her rights.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35"Another declaration of independence will be written."

0:38:36 > 0:38:39"And... And I do not have to...

0:38:39 > 0:38:40"to be a prophet to tell you...

0:39:14 > 0:39:17ORGANISER: Just put the chairs against the wall

0:39:17 > 0:39:21so the old folks can sit down and you young folks can dance.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30What did you do it for? That's all I want to know.

0:39:30 > 0:39:34I'm sorry. I forgot to change some of the words.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37Forgot? Well, it made me look like a jackass.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41You heard them laughing. Everybody thinks I'm a fool.

0:39:41 > 0:39:45- Well done, young man. Congratulations.- Thanks.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49I'm Helen Hatley Hamilton, chairman of the Woman's Suffrage Party.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53We could use you. Right spirt and the right words.

0:39:53 > 0:39:54Too bad you're not a woman.

0:39:56 > 0:40:00- You see? - Congratulations, Tom. Great speech.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- Thanks.- Yes, sir. Right spirit and the right words.

0:40:03 > 0:40:07Too bad you aren't a man. ..May I have this dance?

0:40:07 > 0:40:09I'd be delighted, Mr Beehouse.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15Hm. I suppose he thought that was funny.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19Don't pay any attention. He's merely uncouth.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22It's wonderful, the way you delivered it.

0:40:23 > 0:40:28You're still angry? Doesn't it make any difference that I liked it?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Of course. All the difference in the world.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34THE BAND PLAYS A ONE-STEP

0:41:02 > 0:41:04- Would you like some punch?- Yes.

0:41:04 > 0:41:09I've got to say good night to Aunt Lou and Uncle Emery. I'll be right back.

0:41:09 > 0:41:10Can't be too soon for me.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Would you care for a glass of punch?

0:41:19 > 0:41:21- Thanks.- I'll get you one.

0:41:24 > 0:41:26Di, I'd like to speak to you.

0:41:27 > 0:41:31- Why, of course, Tom.- Privately. Let's go outside for a minute.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50Isn't it beautiful out here tonight?

0:41:50 > 0:41:52As a matter of fact, it's rather chilly.

0:41:52 > 0:41:53We'll skip that.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56Right here's as good a place to talk as any.

0:41:58 > 0:41:59Yes, Tom.

0:42:02 > 0:42:03What is it?

0:42:04 > 0:42:05It's about you and me, Di.

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Yes, Tom?

0:42:10 > 0:42:13I'm not satisfied with this relationship.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15It's got to change.

0:42:16 > 0:42:17How, Tom?

0:42:20 > 0:42:22I just don't want to be seen with you any more.

0:42:24 > 0:42:28It isn't only tonight's speech. It's everything.

0:42:28 > 0:42:33The time in grammar school and I got in a fight and lost two teeth.

0:42:33 > 0:42:39The time I lost my chance to be on the football team when you got me into a row with the coach's sister.

0:42:39 > 0:42:43- The time you talked me into buying a course...- But, Tom, I...

0:42:43 > 0:42:46And the time you lost me my job.

0:42:46 > 0:42:47And all your other ideas.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Let's just call it quits,

0:42:49 > 0:42:53because I don't want anything more to happen.

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Especially now, with Bernice and everything.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Please remember that, will you?

0:42:59 > 0:43:00Yes, Tom.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02Thank you.

0:43:05 > 0:43:08- Excuse me.- Certainly, Tom.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11MUSIC: "Artist's Life" by Johann Strauss

0:43:35 > 0:43:36Di.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40Hello, Papa.

0:43:40 > 0:43:42Isn't it a little cold out here, dear?

0:43:44 > 0:43:46Yes. That's what Tom said.

0:43:50 > 0:43:52The moon's certainly pretty, shining on the water.

0:43:53 > 0:43:56It only hides the sadness underneath.

0:43:56 > 0:43:59Life can be like that sometimes.

0:43:59 > 0:44:03Beautiful and bright on the surface, still and cold underneath.

0:44:05 > 0:44:06Yes, it can.

0:44:08 > 0:44:11That's a lovely waltz they're playing. So gay.

0:44:12 > 0:44:15Yes, gay if one's gay... sad if one's sad.

0:44:18 > 0:44:19Strauss, isn't it?

0:44:21 > 0:44:22That's why it's sad.

0:44:24 > 0:44:26Why is that, dear?

0:44:26 > 0:44:30It was written long ago, about something that's lost for ever.

0:44:30 > 0:44:33Something rare and beautiful, that can never be again.

0:44:34 > 0:44:38Just a deep pain at the memory of the lost past.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42We should never mourn for the past.

0:44:42 > 0:44:45Sometimes, it's more beautiful than the future.

0:44:55 > 0:44:58You know, I haven't danced in ten years.

0:45:00 > 0:45:03But I'll bet I can still manage to stay off my partner's toes.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08Would you come inside and dance this one with me?

0:45:11 > 0:45:12Of course, Papa.

0:45:18 > 0:45:20Papa, how do you get to be a missionary?

0:45:23 > 0:45:24I, er...

0:45:24 > 0:45:26I'll tell you inside.

0:45:44 > 0:45:47MUSIC: "Gold And Silver Waltz" by Lehar

0:46:29 > 0:46:31Gee, Pa's a good dancer!

0:46:31 > 0:46:34Yes. Oh, yes!

0:47:45 > 0:47:47Papa, we've won!

0:48:01 > 0:48:04What I wonder is, why would Tom be mad at me?

0:48:04 > 0:48:08- I- can't explain the vagaries of Mr Wade's disposition.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10Gee whiz, don't get your dander up!

0:48:10 > 0:48:14I'm not perturbed, if that's what you mean by that vulgar slang.

0:48:15 > 0:48:19- No! Put him here! He'll choke! - That's just silly.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21You want to kill the guppy?

0:48:21 > 0:48:23- He's my guppy.- He is not!

0:48:23 > 0:48:28- You don't know beans about guppies. - I do! I'll hold him if I want.

0:48:28 > 0:48:30He'll die if you hold him.

0:48:30 > 0:48:32- There! See?- He will not.

0:48:32 > 0:48:34He knows me... >

0:48:34 > 0:48:35He will so! >

0:48:35 > 0:48:37- Children, please. - FABRIC RIPS

0:48:38 > 0:48:40< He's different from a fish.

0:48:40 > 0:48:44- A guppy IS a fish.- I told you... - Let go of my guppy!

0:48:44 > 0:48:46All right.

0:48:46 > 0:48:50< All right. But you wait. Just you wait.

0:48:51 > 0:48:57Sorry. Is my working on my sermon in any way disturbing any of you?

0:48:57 > 0:48:58- LILY:- We're sorry, Andrew, dear.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02What's the sermon about, Pa?

0:49:02 > 0:49:04The power of silence.

0:49:06 > 0:49:08Proverbs 17, verse 28.

0:49:09 > 0:49:14"Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise

0:49:14 > 0:49:19"and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding."

0:49:22 > 0:49:24TROMBONE BURPS

0:49:27 > 0:49:30Momma, I'm going out for a little walk.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33Fresh air's good for a person before bedtime. I'll sleep better.

0:49:46 > 0:49:48Get your hands off that...

0:49:48 > 0:49:50- LILY:- Let's please have no more talking.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53Quiet in the court! The monkey's going to speak!

0:49:53 > 0:49:55Speak, monkey! Speak!

0:49:58 > 0:50:01- ANDREW:- Ahem. - BOTH CHILDREN:- You're the monkey!

0:50:01 > 0:50:04I was clearing my throat!

0:50:12 > 0:50:14Oh, it's you.

0:50:14 > 0:50:17Mr Wade, it's very important that I speak with you privately.

0:50:19 > 0:50:21Look, Dinah, I'm very busy.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23There's nothing to stop you from talking.

0:50:25 > 0:50:29Mr Steuben doesn't allow employees to talk during working hours.

0:50:31 > 0:50:34Mr Steuben, may I talk to Tom? It's very urgent.

0:50:34 > 0:50:38- Why, sure. Oh, Tom?- Yes, Mr Steuben?

0:50:38 > 0:50:41This young lady wants to talk to you.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44I won't get this automobile done if I do, Mr Steuben.

0:50:44 > 0:50:46You let me worry about that, Tom.

0:50:46 > 0:50:49- Yes, Mr Steuben.- Thank you.

0:50:52 > 0:50:56- Well?- Mr Wade, since you desire to terminate our relationship,

0:50:56 > 0:51:00I feel the need to clear up the 50 I owe you.

0:51:00 > 0:51:01I don't have to have that.

0:51:01 > 0:51:05I feel the sooner it's settled, the happier we'll be.

0:51:05 > 0:51:08After all, 50 is a lot of money.

0:51:08 > 0:51:12Well, now that you mention it, I could use it.

0:51:12 > 0:51:14Say, I...I certainly could.

0:51:14 > 0:51:16Bernice's birthday is coming up, you know.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19You'll certainly have your money.

0:51:19 > 0:51:22- Have you got it? - I...have a way to get it.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25Unfortunately, I need your co-operation.

0:51:25 > 0:51:30But you will have funds to lavish gifts upon your continental friend.

0:51:30 > 0:51:34- Where are you going to get 50? - Painting.

0:51:34 > 0:51:38- Huh!- If you'll deign to read it, you'll see it's a competition.

0:51:38 > 0:51:41There are three prizes of 50.

0:51:41 > 0:51:44I intend to win one of them with a portrait of you

0:51:44 > 0:51:46as The Spirit Of Labor.

0:51:47 > 0:51:48Are you bats?!

0:51:50 > 0:51:52You want to get Bernice that gift, don't you?

0:51:52 > 0:51:54Not that way, I don't.

0:51:54 > 0:51:58I think that's foolish, Tom, since I'm doing this for you.

0:51:58 > 0:52:03- You can forget it. I won't be a laughing stock again. - All I need you for is to pose.

0:52:03 > 0:52:06The face won't look like you, if that's what you're afraid of.

0:52:08 > 0:52:09It won't?

0:52:09 > 0:52:10Heavens, no!

0:52:10 > 0:52:15A person would be vain to imagine their face personifying all labour!

0:52:15 > 0:52:17I'm going to paint in the face of an ideal man

0:52:17 > 0:52:21half angel, half Hercules.

0:52:22 > 0:52:23No.

0:52:23 > 0:52:25Oh, Tom...

0:52:25 > 0:52:29Papa's lending me the greenhouse as a studio. It's completely secluded.

0:52:31 > 0:52:35- So nobody would see me pose? - No! You can put on your costume...

0:52:35 > 0:52:37Costume?

0:52:37 > 0:52:39..and go right over without a soul seeing.

0:52:39 > 0:52:41What kind of a costume?

0:52:41 > 0:52:45Well, I... I haven't decided exactly what.

0:52:45 > 0:52:50After all, you have to typify labour in an idealised way.

0:52:50 > 0:52:54Atlas holding the world up... Giants trampling wine from grapes...

0:52:54 > 0:52:56Gulliver... Goliath...

0:52:56 > 0:52:59It has to be filled with strength.

0:53:01 > 0:53:03HEN CLUCKS

0:53:09 > 0:53:11"Velocity of a point is the...

0:53:11 > 0:53:15"time arc at which it is traversing distance."

0:53:17 > 0:53:21Phew. This hammer isn't exactly made of feathers, Di.

0:53:21 > 0:53:23I'll be done in a few minutes.

0:53:23 > 0:53:25HENS CLUCK

0:53:25 > 0:53:29Shoo! Go away! Get off there! Go on!

0:53:31 > 0:53:33All you need is a little patience.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36Patience? In this pose and costume?

0:53:36 > 0:53:40- Why, if anybody saw me like this... - Oh, Tom, don't be a prude.

0:53:40 > 0:53:45An artist is above that. I'm not aware of you as a person.

0:53:45 > 0:53:47To me, you're merely light and shadow.

0:53:47 > 0:53:52- How does a swimsuit fit in with Hercules?- Wait till it's finished.

0:53:52 > 0:53:55MR STEUBEN: Tom! Oh, Tom!

0:53:55 > 0:53:57I have to go, Di. Mr Steuben wants me in the garage.

0:53:57 > 0:54:01Tom, two more minutes and I'll be finished for the day. Please, Tom.

0:54:03 > 0:54:08- I haven't got all day to waste. - He'll be here in a minute. TOM!

0:54:09 > 0:54:11Coming. I've got to go, Di.

0:54:11 > 0:54:12Just one more minute.

0:54:14 > 0:54:17- Hello, Mrs Sheldon! - Bernice, dear! How are you?

0:54:17 > 0:54:20Is that the new frock your mother told me about?

0:54:20 > 0:54:23Just a little thing Momma made up.

0:54:23 > 0:54:28It's darling. Did you come to show Dinah? She's in the greenhouse.

0:54:28 > 0:54:32I know she'll be pleased you came to show it to her.

0:54:34 > 0:54:36When do I get to see the painting?

0:54:36 > 0:54:39It would be very bad luck for you to see it before I exhibit it.

0:54:40 > 0:54:43- < Dinah? - It's Bernice!

0:54:43 > 0:54:46If she sees me in here like this...

0:54:46 > 0:54:48- < Dinah? - Uh...just a minute, Bernice.

0:54:48 > 0:54:51Hide! Not there. Over there.

0:54:52 > 0:54:55- < Dinah? - HENS CLUCK

0:54:55 > 0:55:00What are you doing in this...? Oh, painting!

0:55:00 > 0:55:04Just dabbing. Papa lets me use it for a studio. It's so secluded.

0:55:04 > 0:55:07Who can paint with all that racket?

0:55:07 > 0:55:11- WILD CLUCKING - Oh, my mind's on higher things. Isn't that a new dress?

0:55:11 > 0:55:16Yes! Don't you love the neckline? They're two inches lower in Paris.

0:55:16 > 0:55:21- You know Paris. Tout a la mode. - Oh, yes.

0:55:21 > 0:55:22Tom will like it.

0:55:22 > 0:55:26A girl shouldn't wear anything her fiance doesn't care for.

0:55:26 > 0:55:31Tom has very decided ideas. But I don't mind him being strait-laced.

0:55:31 > 0:55:35No... I mean, yes. Why should you?

0:55:35 > 0:55:38Bernice, I've been wanting to ask,

0:55:38 > 0:55:41can you show me how you do that French hairstyle?

0:55:41 > 0:55:44- I don't mind. - There's a double mirror upstairs.

0:55:44 > 0:55:49- I'm not sure you've got the face. - It's awfully sweet of you, anyway.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52All right. Now you can squawk.

0:55:57 > 0:56:00..in a French roll. Then you take the sides...

0:56:01 > 0:56:05Oh, you've finished already? How did the painting go?

0:56:06 > 0:56:09Oh, er...just splendidly, Momma.

0:56:10 > 0:56:13Lily? May I see you a moment?

0:56:13 > 0:56:15­ DOOR CLOSES

0:56:16 > 0:56:18Of course, Andrew.

0:56:30 > 0:56:31Lily, Mr Fletcher was just here...

0:56:33 > 0:56:35..on a matter of great importance.

0:56:35 > 0:56:37- Has Dinah done something again?- No.

0:56:37 > 0:56:39Oh, thank goodness.

0:56:40 > 0:56:44No, it's... more important than that.

0:56:44 > 0:56:46What is it?

0:56:46 > 0:56:51It's something...as you know, Lily...I've never sought.

0:56:51 > 0:56:52Andrew!

0:56:52 > 0:56:56Dan told me I'm to be nominated for bishop.

0:56:56 > 0:56:58That's wonderful!

0:56:58 > 0:57:00Oh, I'm so glad, Andrew dear!

0:57:02 > 0:57:04I know I should be very happy, but...

0:57:06 > 0:57:07Aren't you?

0:57:07 > 0:57:10- Yes, of course, but... - But what, dear?

0:57:11 > 0:57:12I...

0:57:14 > 0:57:17I'm not sure I'm worthy of it.

0:57:17 > 0:57:19Why, of course you are!

0:57:20 > 0:57:23I feel very humble, Lily, touched,

0:57:23 > 0:57:25that the people of St Edmunds think I am.

0:57:26 > 0:57:29But I'm not sure that my calling is to be a bishop.

0:57:30 > 0:57:34Before I told you, I went over to the church to pray.

0:57:34 > 0:57:36I wanted guidance

0:57:36 > 0:57:38to be told whether I had a right to be nominated.

0:57:40 > 0:57:43I knew, of course, that as in all things,

0:57:43 > 0:57:44that guidance would come from above.

0:57:46 > 0:57:50It's because you do think this that you're right for it.

0:57:50 > 0:57:54Oh, there'll be other nominees. Dr Bristow, for one.

0:57:54 > 0:57:58I have great affection and respect for him. He's a truly fine man.

0:57:58 > 0:58:00And so are YOU, Andrew.

0:58:02 > 0:58:05And I'm a very lucky man. I know that.

0:58:05 > 0:58:08- May I tell the children? - I'm not elected yet.

0:58:08 > 0:58:10Oh, nonsense!

0:58:11 > 0:58:15Children! Oh, children?

0:58:15 > 0:58:18Come downstairs! Your father's got news for you!

0:58:18 > 0:58:21What's up, Momma?

0:58:22 > 0:58:23Momma, what is it?

0:58:23 > 0:58:27Your father's been nominated for bishop of the diocese of Maryland!

0:58:34 > 0:58:39Pa, this is a very important day to us. Congratulations, sir.

0:58:40 > 0:58:43I'm sure we'll all behave as a bishop's family should behave.

0:58:45 > 0:58:49And I know the Bishop of Maryland will have the best left hook in the US.

0:58:49 > 0:58:50Now, wait a minute...

0:58:50 > 0:58:54I'm not even nominated, let alone elected.

0:58:54 > 0:58:58- There are other candidates. - Oh, Papa. They can't elect anyone but you.

0:58:58 > 0:59:03I'm not so sure. Lily, are ice cream and cake in order?

0:59:03 > 0:59:04- Definitely!- Let's go get them!

0:59:04 > 0:59:07- MARK:- Pa, I'd like to ask a question.

0:59:07 > 0:59:09What is it?

0:59:09 > 0:59:11- Does a bishop make more money?- Mark!

0:59:11 > 0:59:13ALL LAUGH

0:59:26 > 0:59:30- Yes?- I'd like to enter a painting in the exhibition.

0:59:30 > 0:59:33- For whom are you delivering? Mr...? - Not Mister. Miss.

0:59:33 > 0:59:39- Miss?- Yes. Miss Dinah Sheldon. I'm not delivering it. I'm entering it.

0:59:39 > 0:59:43Entering it? We've never had a female entrant.

0:59:43 > 0:59:47- The rules don't say women can't enter.- My dear young lady,

0:59:47 > 0:59:49no woman wrote a great opera,

0:59:49 > 0:59:53built a great building or painted a great painting.

0:59:53 > 0:59:55No woman ever voted, but we will.

0:59:55 > 0:59:57You have no right to bar my work.

0:59:57 > 1:00:00The rules admit everybody. As you'd know if you'd read them.

1:00:08 > 1:00:09Page seven.

1:00:09 > 1:00:11Thank you.

1:00:13 > 1:00:15You're right!

1:00:15 > 1:00:17Then, here's my entry.

1:00:32 > 1:00:35Well! Quite good!

1:00:35 > 1:00:38Thank you. There's just one thing.

1:00:38 > 1:00:41- The painter's name is secret, isn't it?- Oh, yes, indeed.

1:00:41 > 1:00:45Each painting is unsigned, with a number fixed to the frame.

1:00:45 > 1:00:50We keep the names separately, so the judges aren't influenced.

1:00:50 > 1:00:54Your number is 87. Your name will be undisclosed.

1:00:54 > 1:00:57I'd like to remain anonymous after judging, too.

1:00:57 > 1:01:00- Even if you should win? - Yes, even if I should win.

1:01:03 > 1:01:07Yes, I...think I see what you mean, Miss Sheldon.

1:01:14 > 1:01:1587!

1:01:19 > 1:01:22- Bernice! Come and see 87!- What for?

1:01:22 > 1:01:24I hate to say anything,

1:01:24 > 1:01:28but it may change your mind about some things.

1:01:28 > 1:01:29What things, child?

1:01:29 > 1:01:35Come and see, Mrs Eckert! If you have smelling salts, lend them to Bernice!

1:01:39 > 1:01:41SHE GASPS

1:01:41 > 1:01:44- It's Tom! Your Tom!- Yes, it's Tom!

1:01:44 > 1:01:46He must have posed for it.

1:01:46 > 1:01:48- WOMAN:- Why, that's Tom Wade!

1:01:48 > 1:01:50In THAT costume!

1:01:50 > 1:01:55- I wonder who painted it. - I'll tell you! Dinah Sheldon!

1:01:55 > 1:01:59- Dr Sheldon's daughter! - Oh, how dreadful!

1:01:59 > 1:02:02Your fiance posed like that before a woman?

1:02:02 > 1:02:06So that's what she was doing in that secret studio!

1:02:06 > 1:02:08That's why she was so odd about it.

1:02:08 > 1:02:11She liked it because it was SECLUDED, she said.

1:02:11 > 1:02:14Too secluded, I'd say.

1:02:14 > 1:02:16I wonder what else went on.

1:02:16 > 1:02:19- I've heard about artists. - I knew one once.

1:02:19 > 1:02:22Where did you know an artist? You never told me.

1:02:22 > 1:02:26I must get this poor child home. You speak to Tom Wade.

1:02:26 > 1:02:28Dinah Sheldon, the hussy!

1:02:31 > 1:02:34HECTIC MUSIC

1:02:45 > 1:02:48- Hello.- Good afternoon, Dinah.

1:02:52 > 1:02:54YELLING: Dinah!

1:02:54 > 1:02:56How's Tom Wade?

1:02:56 > 1:02:59- Shhh! Stop it!- Poor Dr Sheldon.

1:03:09 > 1:03:12Why did you do it? That's all I want to know.

1:03:12 > 1:03:16- Why did you put my face on it? You said you wouldn't.- I know.

1:03:16 > 1:03:20I tried all kinds of things, but they were wrong.

1:03:20 > 1:03:25I painted and painted, and suddenly I saw that without meaning to,

1:03:25 > 1:03:27I'd put in your face.

1:03:27 > 1:03:29And then it WAS right.

1:03:29 > 1:03:33- I didn't try to do it. It just happened.- It sure did.

1:03:33 > 1:03:39They...gave me a prize. I can pay you back the 50 now.

1:03:41 > 1:03:42Thanks.

1:03:43 > 1:03:45I'll need it.

1:03:45 > 1:03:48I just lost my job on account of...things.

1:03:48 > 1:03:52- Oh, Tom!- Bernice is mad at me. So's my Aunt Ella.

1:03:52 > 1:03:54I wish I could change things.

1:03:54 > 1:03:55It's too late now.

1:03:57 > 1:04:03I don't know why, but taking this makes me feel like Benedict Arnold or somebody.

1:04:09 > 1:04:13- If you'd disciplined her, it wouldn't have happened. - Perhaps, Dan.

1:04:13 > 1:04:17But the damage is done. Good day.

1:04:17 > 1:04:19- Afternoon, Miss Wade. - Afternoon, Mr Fletcher.

1:04:19 > 1:04:21Glad to see you, Ella. Come on in.

1:04:22 > 1:04:27- Dr Sheldon, this whole thing is just terrible. - Let's sit down and talk about it.

1:04:28 > 1:04:31Talking won't do a smidgen of good.

1:04:31 > 1:04:34I feel something just has to be done about it, that's all.

1:04:34 > 1:04:35Goodness knows what.

1:04:38 > 1:04:42- How's Tom?- He's very upset. You know what they're saying.

1:04:43 > 1:04:48- Yes.- He had to hit two of his friends this afternoon.

1:04:48 > 1:04:49Oh, yes, it's come to that.

1:04:49 > 1:04:52Breaking up his friendships, on top of everything.

1:04:53 > 1:04:55I'm sorry to hear that.

1:04:55 > 1:04:58You'd be a mite sorrier to hear what they say about YOU.

1:04:58 > 1:05:01And your wife. And how Dinah was raised.

1:05:01 > 1:05:06Not that I'd listen, but I could tell you who's saying those mean things.

1:05:06 > 1:05:11Ella, I don't want to know. They don't know what they're doing.

1:05:11 > 1:05:16KNOCK AT DOOR Andrew, dear... Excuse me, Ella. ..may I see you a moment?

1:05:16 > 1:05:18Certainly, dear. I'll be right back, Ella.

1:05:20 > 1:05:22Come in here a minute, dear.

1:05:28 > 1:05:31Andrew, there are two more people to see you.

1:05:31 > 1:05:36- Same thing? - Yes, Mr Eckert and a man from the Post for a picture of Dinah.

1:05:36 > 1:05:39- That's out of the question. - You'll have to talk to him.

1:05:39 > 1:05:42It's a tempest in a teapot.

1:05:42 > 1:05:45- I'll get rid of them. - DOORBELL

1:05:45 > 1:05:47Now there's someone else.

1:05:47 > 1:05:52Andrew, she can go to your sister Carrie in Pittsburgh for a few months.

1:05:52 > 1:05:57- What good would it do? - She'd have a chance to think, and we can sort things out.

1:05:57 > 1:06:01If anything's to be sorted out, the place is here.

1:06:01 > 1:06:03They'll be dreadful to her.

1:06:03 > 1:06:06I'm afraid you're right, Lily.

1:06:06 > 1:06:09But what affects Dinah affects us too.

1:06:09 > 1:06:15- I'd rather face it here than send her away. It isn't Dinah's fault. - I don't know, Andrew.

1:06:15 > 1:06:18I can't help feeling it must be partly her fault.

1:06:18 > 1:06:24- Ordinary well-mannered people don't get into things like this.- Lily.

1:06:24 > 1:06:27Ordinary well-mannered people get into all kinds of trouble.

1:06:31 > 1:06:33Oh!

1:06:35 > 1:06:38Bernice? I've been looking for you.

1:06:38 > 1:06:40You'd no need to hang up the phone.

1:06:40 > 1:06:43There's no point you talking to me, Tom Wade.

1:06:43 > 1:06:48- Won't you let me explain?- Some things explain themselves, Mr Wade.

1:06:48 > 1:06:50I love this new flavour, Fred.

1:06:50 > 1:06:54Have another! Two sodas, please. Pistachio.

1:06:54 > 1:06:57Bernice, you're mistaken about this.

1:06:57 > 1:07:01If that's so, you wouldn't be seen talking with Dinah Sheldon.

1:07:01 > 1:07:04Mrs Weir told Momma she was hanging out washing,

1:07:04 > 1:07:08and you walked right back into that greenhouse

1:07:08 > 1:07:11and talked to her, as big as life!

1:07:11 > 1:07:12What's wrong with that?

1:07:12 > 1:07:14After what she did?! That creature!

1:07:14 > 1:07:18She is not a creature. You're taking a wrong attitude.

1:07:18 > 1:07:22Mr Wade, to whom do you think you're speaking to?

1:07:22 > 1:07:27- I'm telling you, Di did nothing wrong.- She's nothing but a...a...

1:07:27 > 1:07:29things everybody's saying.

1:07:29 > 1:07:32- Do you believe them?- Where there's smoke there's fire, Mother says.

1:07:33 > 1:07:38- That's the most unfair thing I ever heard.- Everyone can't be wrong.

1:07:38 > 1:07:41If I were willing not to ask questions,

1:07:41 > 1:07:46the least you can do is promise not to speak to that hussy again.

1:07:46 > 1:07:50Bernice, if you were a man I'd punch you in the nose.

1:07:50 > 1:07:51Fred!

1:07:52 > 1:07:54Uh...I'M a man.

1:07:57 > 1:07:59Man, huh?

1:08:01 > 1:08:03He's fainted!

1:08:03 > 1:08:05- Lily?- Yes?

1:08:07 > 1:08:09Lily, where are you?

1:08:09 > 1:08:12I'm up here, dear. What is it?

1:08:12 > 1:08:16You'll have to change your Young People's Meeting to another day.

1:08:17 > 1:08:20The furnace man's working in the hall on Tuesday.

1:08:20 > 1:08:21Monday, then.

1:08:23 > 1:08:25Hey, what's going on here?

1:08:25 > 1:08:29Dinah's going to visit your sister Carrie till summer.

1:08:29 > 1:08:32- I told you how I feel about that. - Papa, please.

1:08:32 > 1:08:35We talked it over, and Momma's right.

1:08:35 > 1:08:38It's best for me to go away for a few months.

1:08:38 > 1:08:40I've done nothing but cause trouble for you.

1:08:44 > 1:08:48I said before, it's a family responsibility. We'll fight it out.

1:08:48 > 1:08:50There's nothing to fight.

1:08:50 > 1:08:55It's a matter of getting people to forget. They won't if Dinah's here.

1:08:55 > 1:08:58- Forget what? The evil their own minds invented?- No, dear.

1:08:58 > 1:09:02The situation that could affect your whole future.

1:09:05 > 1:09:08Lily dear, if God wants me to be bishop, I will be.

1:09:08 > 1:09:12It's more urgent to recognise gossip for what it is.

1:09:12 > 1:09:15Andrew, dear, you know how much good you could do.

1:09:15 > 1:09:18It means so much to everyone.

1:09:18 > 1:09:20PHONE RINGS

1:09:21 > 1:09:24I talked with Mr Fletcher and some of the vestrymen.

1:09:24 > 1:09:26We agree it's the wisest thing.

1:09:26 > 1:09:29- GENE:- Call for Pa, about the job for Hank Miller.

1:09:29 > 1:09:31Right, Gene.

1:09:31 > 1:09:34- Lily...- Answer that and leave this to me, dear.

1:09:34 > 1:09:36I know I'm right, Andrew.

1:09:36 > 1:09:42I won't stand still while you lose the chance to be bishop of this diocese.

1:09:42 > 1:09:45- ­- Pa, are you coming? - Please, dear.

1:09:45 > 1:09:47- ­- Shall I hang up, Pa?

1:09:47 > 1:09:48No, I'm coming.

1:09:53 > 1:09:55HE CLEARS THROAT

1:09:59 > 1:10:01- MARK: I wish- I- was going away!

1:10:01 > 1:10:03- SIS:- I don't.

1:10:11 > 1:10:13Tom?

1:10:23 > 1:10:24I just want to say goodbye.

1:10:27 > 1:10:30I thought it all over, Di, and I know it wasn't your fault.

1:10:30 > 1:10:32Thank you.

1:10:32 > 1:10:35I'm sorry they're sending you away.

1:10:35 > 1:10:40Perhaps it's as well if we don't see each other. I've caused you enough grief.

1:10:41 > 1:10:44I don't hold anything against you, Di.

1:10:44 > 1:10:48- Dinah! Come on, dear. We're ready. - All right, Momma. I'm coming.

1:10:50 > 1:10:52Perhaps we should say goodbye here...

1:10:53 > 1:10:55..in the darkness.

1:10:55 > 1:10:58It would be best for you not to be seen with me now.

1:10:58 > 1:11:03I don't feel that way. I'm not ashamed to be seen with you.

1:11:03 > 1:11:06No, it...it's better this way.

1:11:06 > 1:11:08You know what they're saying.

1:11:10 > 1:11:13The world can be very unkind to a woman alone.

1:11:13 > 1:11:15Well, we'll just show them.

1:11:15 > 1:11:19I'll ride to the station with you. We'll let everybody see us.

1:11:20 > 1:11:23You behave, and mind your father.

1:11:23 > 1:11:24- Yes, Momma. - MARK: Yes, Momma.

1:11:26 > 1:11:28Tom's going to see me off.

1:11:28 > 1:11:32Oh? Well, dear, I wonder if...

1:11:32 > 1:11:36Mrs Sheldon, I want you to know, I'd be proud to ride in your buggy.

1:11:36 > 1:11:41- Well, yes, but it might not... - Good idea, Lily. Go along, Tom.

1:11:41 > 1:11:43Yes, sir. I'll put your bag in the buggy.

1:11:45 > 1:11:50- Take care, dear. I'll be back tomorrow. - I don't like you travelling alone.

1:11:50 > 1:11:54- You can't leave, with a service tomorrow and meetings tonight. - No, I can't.

1:11:56 > 1:11:57- Goodbye, dear.- Goodbye.

1:12:04 > 1:12:08Papa, I've been thinking.

1:12:08 > 1:12:12It's my ambition that's caused all the trouble for everybody.

1:12:12 > 1:12:16So I've come to a decision. I'm giving up painting.

1:12:19 > 1:12:21Odd you should say that.

1:12:21 > 1:12:22Why, Papa?

1:12:23 > 1:12:26I wondered, when you're in Pittsburgh,

1:12:26 > 1:12:29I've never had a picture of your Aunt Carrie.

1:12:29 > 1:12:33I, er... had Jean put your paints in the buggy.

1:12:33 > 1:12:38I thought if you didn't mind, you could do that for me.

1:12:38 > 1:12:40If YOU want me to.

1:12:40 > 1:12:43- Just see that it's a good one. - Oh, I will!

1:12:44 > 1:12:45Goodbye, dear.

1:12:48 > 1:12:49Bye, Papa.

1:13:00 > 1:13:03- Bye, Momma! Bye!- Bye, Dinah!

1:13:03 > 1:13:06- Bye, Dinah!- Bye, Momma! Bye!

1:13:31 > 1:13:39- Ha, ha! You're not going anywhere! - On to City Hall! Teddy Roosevelt's speaking tonight! We'll tell him!

1:13:39 > 1:13:44- You'll never get to City Hall. - Go on home, you silly hens.

1:13:44 > 1:13:49- Why don't they let them through? They can see the President. - It's not our business.

1:13:49 > 1:13:53Some among you must want to hear the voice of justice for women.

1:13:53 > 1:13:57To you I say... DERISIVE SHOUTS

1:13:57 > 1:14:00Oh, that's mean! They SHOULD let them through!

1:14:00 > 1:14:02Momma, you're right.

1:14:02 > 1:14:06Somebody's got to make a path for them. Giddy-up, George.

1:14:13 > 1:14:15SHOUTS AND SCREAMS

1:14:44 > 1:14:48- HORSE NEIGHS - You all right?- Where are we?

1:14:51 > 1:14:53Wait! That's my new parasol!

1:14:53 > 1:14:56HORSE NEIGHS

1:15:00 > 1:15:02CRASH!

1:15:06 > 1:15:10I'm sick and tired of submitting to this gossip,

1:15:10 > 1:15:15allowing it to grow and disrupt my parish, my work and my family.

1:15:15 > 1:15:18I don't intend to let it go on happening.

1:15:18 > 1:15:20I should never have allowed Lily and Dinah to leave.

1:15:21 > 1:15:24I'm not going to let this break up my family.

1:15:25 > 1:15:29I'm going down to the station, and pray they haven't left.

1:15:29 > 1:15:33No daughter of mine is being sent away because of lying tongues.

1:15:33 > 1:15:35PHONE RINGS

1:15:40 > 1:15:41Hello?

1:15:41 > 1:15:43Yes. Yes.

1:15:45 > 1:15:46It...

1:15:48 > 1:15:50Yes! Yes, I'll be right down!

1:15:52 > 1:15:54Fortunately, they...haven't left yet.

1:15:56 > 1:15:59- Andrew...your family? - Yes, Dan. They were arrested.

1:15:59 > 1:16:03Over there, Reverend. If they're yours, we'll release them.

1:16:05 > 1:16:07Yes, they're mine.

1:16:10 > 1:16:15- Lily, dear, are you all right? - Yes, dear. Perfectly. We all are.

1:16:16 > 1:16:18Er...what about your eye?

1:16:18 > 1:16:20It's nothing.

1:16:20 > 1:16:22Someone hit me, that's all.

1:16:22 > 1:16:26It's a beauty, isn't it? Well, let's go home.

1:16:26 > 1:16:28We'll want to get something on these bruises.

1:16:32 > 1:16:35Keep your guard up?

1:16:35 > 1:16:40Andrew, I want you to know we did nothing wrong. It wasn't our fault.

1:16:40 > 1:16:44Yes, I know, dear. Ordinary, well-mannered people just...

1:16:44 > 1:16:46don't get into things like this.

1:16:57 > 1:17:00ORGAN PLAYS

1:17:46 > 1:17:50Andrew, I know you've changed your subject for the sermon.

1:17:50 > 1:17:51Have you prepared another?

1:17:53 > 1:17:56No. But...

1:17:56 > 1:17:59I HAVE been thinking about it for quite a while.

1:17:59 > 1:18:02Andrew, concerning your, er, ruminations,

1:18:02 > 1:18:06my advice would be to make no mention of the matter last week.

1:18:06 > 1:18:10You're all very certain that if I forget it, everyone will.

1:18:10 > 1:18:13Time takes care of everything.

1:18:13 > 1:18:18- The less I make of this, the more I protect my opportunity to be bishop. - Aye!

1:18:18 > 1:18:21Let's not be ashamed of mentioning

1:18:21 > 1:18:25that it's something of concern to you and to your friends here.

1:18:25 > 1:18:27I appreciate that, too.

1:18:30 > 1:18:33Perhaps, Andrew, you'd give us some information

1:18:33 > 1:18:36concerning your, er...ruminations?

1:18:38 > 1:18:44Well, of course, if I weren't concerned about becoming bishop...

1:18:44 > 1:18:48and if I weren't willing to just forget the whole thing...

1:18:49 > 1:18:53..I would have a few things to say. A few points to make.

1:18:53 > 1:18:56To begin with, I would proudly contend

1:18:56 > 1:19:00that my family fought for the rights of individuals.

1:19:00 > 1:19:02I'd point out that with elections...

1:19:02 > 1:19:09I might add it's shameful for members of my own congregation to indulge in petty gossip...

1:19:09 > 1:19:15about my daughter and the young man, both of whom are above reproach.

1:19:15 > 1:19:16Andrew, I implore you ...

1:19:16 > 1:19:19Just a moment. I am not finished...

1:19:19 > 1:19:21with my ruminations.

1:19:22 > 1:19:25I would also say that I, too, am in error.

1:19:26 > 1:19:29I have not taught my people well

1:19:29 > 1:19:31if this sort of thing can happen in my parish.

1:19:32 > 1:19:36I would also confess I was willing to submit to this gossip

1:19:36 > 1:19:38by agreeing to let my daughter leave town.

1:19:40 > 1:19:47I was willing to submit because I was concerned about my possible election as bishop.

1:19:47 > 1:19:49Andrew, you cannae dare say such things!

1:19:49 > 1:19:55You know, as I divulge these ruminations to you,

1:19:55 > 1:19:59I am more and more convinced that I shall speak of these things.

1:19:59 > 1:20:03- Don't you realise...?- If what my family and I did is wrong,

1:20:03 > 1:20:06I do not deserve to be bishop.

1:20:06 > 1:20:10The only important thing is, I must serve my congregation.

1:20:10 > 1:20:14The first obligation of a minister is to serve.

1:20:14 > 1:20:16I can only serve by speaking the truth.

1:20:16 > 1:20:19You cannae mean to say this in the pulpit?!

1:20:19 > 1:20:20- Yes, Dan. - < You can't possibly!

1:20:20 > 1:20:23I may even think of more.

1:20:23 > 1:20:27I shall probably say something about how we use words

1:20:27 > 1:20:30like meanness, intolerance and bigotry,

1:20:30 > 1:20:34but somehow always in connection with others, never with ourselves.

1:20:34 > 1:20:38What's happened in the last few days, this gossip,

1:20:38 > 1:20:41is mean, intolerant and bigoted.

1:20:41 > 1:20:45If it isn't pointed out and recognised for what it is,

1:20:45 > 1:20:48who can say what cruel thing it may lead to tomorrow?

1:20:49 > 1:20:51There's no measure of a lie.

1:20:51 > 1:20:54It's...neither little nor big.

1:20:54 > 1:20:56It's always a lie.

1:20:56 > 1:21:00I don't want to see any man judge his neighbour.

1:21:00 > 1:21:02That we must always leave to God.

1:21:05 > 1:21:08You may be more comfortable, Dan, in here.

1:21:08 > 1:21:11No. I'll go. Right or wrong, Andrew,

1:21:11 > 1:21:13I want to be in wi' you at the finish.

1:21:24 > 1:21:28Instead of starting with hymn 127, which was posted for today,

1:21:28 > 1:21:31we will sing hymn 493.

1:21:32 > 1:21:35It begins, "O brother man,

1:21:35 > 1:21:37"hold to thy heart thy brother."

1:21:37 > 1:21:40ORGAN PLAYS

1:21:55 > 1:21:58Well, has no-one in this family anything to say?

1:21:58 > 1:22:00Why the unusual silence?

1:22:00 > 1:22:02It's your sermon, Andrew.

1:22:02 > 1:22:04It made us so proud.

1:22:05 > 1:22:07I want you to know that I...

1:22:07 > 1:22:08I...

1:22:09 > 1:22:11SHE SOBS

1:22:15 > 1:22:16Papa?

1:22:16 > 1:22:17That was the finest...

1:22:19 > 1:22:21That really was the finest...

1:22:23 > 1:22:25SHE SOBS

1:22:28 > 1:22:30What they wanted to tell you, Father, was...

1:22:30 > 1:22:32Well, you were so...

1:22:32 > 1:22:35So... I mean...

1:22:41 > 1:22:43What have you got to say?

1:22:43 > 1:22:45- I'm hungry.- And so am I.

1:22:45 > 1:22:47Sensible people.

1:23:04 > 1:23:06Can I help?

1:23:06 > 1:23:08No.

1:23:09 > 1:23:14Oh, Tom, thanks for everything you've done. You've been wonderful.

1:23:15 > 1:23:19No. YOU'RE wonderful.

1:23:19 > 1:23:23I didn't have sense enough to see it till now, but, Di...

1:23:23 > 1:23:25Yes, Tom?

1:23:25 > 1:23:28I do know it now. You are.

1:23:31 > 1:23:32I...

1:23:34 > 1:23:37I...I guess I'd better go back.

1:23:37 > 1:23:39Please come in with me.

1:23:40 > 1:23:43- Sure, Di.- Let me help you.

1:23:51 > 1:23:53Oh, no.

1:23:53 > 1:23:56Di, there's just one thing I want to ask of you.

1:23:56 > 1:23:58Please, don't ever help me!

1:24:03 > 1:24:06< WILD CRY

1:24:09 > 1:24:12Andrew! I've got something...

1:24:12 > 1:24:14Tom, do you suppose...?

1:24:14 > 1:24:17Must a man wait all the day when he has important news?

1:24:19 > 1:24:22Andrew, they've elected you bishop.

1:24:22 > 1:24:27ALL GASP I'm very proud and very happy to be the first to congratulate you.

1:24:29 > 1:24:32Hae you no word for us, Andrew, when I bring you such good tidings?

1:24:38 > 1:24:40Hae you nothing to say?

1:24:44 > 1:24:47Will ye hae white meat or dark, Dan?

1:24:47 > 1:24:51Sit down. Sit down. Bring up another chair.
