00:00:01But it would hurt my feelings if you delivered my first grandson without me.
00:00:05I'll be back in plenty of time.
00:00:07And I'm counting on you.
00:00:09Keep good thoughts, the baby.
00:00:12We'll see you in a few weeks, Mother.
00:00:13All right, Peter Watson, you drive slowly and easily.
00:00:18And avoid the ruts in the bus.
00:00:21Annie and my grandson do not need to be jostled around like a sack of potatoes.
00:00:26Yes, ma'am.
00:00:30I got it for you, Joe.
00:00:31Yes, sir!
00:00:32Skip up!
00:01:00It just feels awful sometimes.
00:01:15What exactly are you feeling?
00:01:17I don't mean to complain, doctor, but I'm just plum wore out.
00:01:21Sometimes I can barely keep my head up.
00:01:23And when did you start feeling this way?
00:01:25When I had my youngest.
00:01:26About five months ago.
00:01:32Your mouth, please.
00:01:39Cums are very pale, Mabel.
00:01:41You haven't noticed when you look in the mirror?
00:01:43I'm not sure I know what they're supposed to look like.
00:01:45Well, I think you have anemia, which means you don't have enough iron in your body.
00:01:48It's common with new mothers.
00:01:50When the baby was inside of you, he took most of your iron.
00:01:53So it's nothing serious, then?
00:01:55Oh, it's very serious.
00:01:56What took you so long to come to me?
00:01:58Well, you see, my husband doesn't think I'm really sick.
00:02:01He says I'm just lazy.
00:02:03You take care of six children and a husband while you work harder than he does.
00:02:07Lloyd's a good man, Doc Owens.
00:02:08Really, he is.
00:02:09He just don't trust doctors.
00:02:11Not since his sister died.
00:02:13Is there a tonic I can take for this anemia?
00:02:16There is a tonic, but eating vegetables would be much more effective.
00:02:19Lloyd doesn't really like all those vegetables.
00:02:22He prefers his meat and potatoes.
00:02:33I take two spoonfuls twice a day and come and see me in a week.
00:02:38It's very important that my coming to see you is kept private.
00:02:41What goes on between a doctor and a patient is always very private.
00:02:57Hello, Lee.
00:02:58Hey there, Reverend.
00:02:59You're eating that bronc of yours saddled all day?
00:03:01Well, I'm just trying to wear him down for the ride home.
00:03:05You're here early, you're here late.
00:03:07Sometimes I don't know if I'm coming or going.
00:03:09Aren't you expecting company?
00:03:11My wife's best friend from medical school.
00:03:13Well, she should get here any day now.
00:03:14I was referring to that apprentice of yours.
00:03:16He should be here on Thursday's stage.
00:03:18I'll leave you to your work, Lee.
00:03:21Have a good day, Reverend.
00:03:23Take your hand to the doctor.
00:03:27All finished?
00:03:29It'll be $2 for the doctor and 50 cents for the medicine.
00:03:32I'm sorry your husband doesn't allow me any extra money.
00:03:46I have to use the sock money I've saved up.
00:03:49Why don't we just call it a dollar even?
00:03:53That's very kind of you.
00:03:55Don't mention it, Mrs. McQueen.
00:03:56Tell her I'll be fine with that medicine.
00:03:57I will absolutely.
00:03:58It's very good to see you.
00:03:59Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:04:00Now you take care of yourself.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:02All right, pal.

00:10:04slow day
00:10:05oh i'm sure it's only a matter of time before someone comes in from getting caught on a rusty nail or falling off a ladder
00:10:12you know when i was traveling through selena last month there was a rash of copperhead snake bites
00:10:16it felt like every day someone was dragged into the clinic
00:10:20i haven't had anything as exciting as a snake bite in months
00:10:23you should be grateful to have a healthy community to serve
00:10:26it's our job as doctors to care about even the most minor illness or affliction
00:10:31and our patients deserve and need our compassion
00:10:35that's right out of a textbook

00:10:42you can tell me anything you know that

00:12:35and just who would we need permission from?
00:12:37go easy on him lilly just got here
00:12:39i'm sure he's aware of what women can accomplish

00:13:30well i'd very much like to hear your opinions
00:13:32i think you're very old-fashioned
00:13:36women can pursue any career they want these days
00:13:38they already have female lawyers, doctors, and ministers
00:13:40a town in kansas even had a woman mayor

00:14:39goodnight pa
00:14:42come in
00:14:56how are you
00:15:00i feel some
00:15:02i feel some
00:15:02i feel some
00:15:04Is that all right?
00:15:15I can't get it.
00:15:18Can I get it now?
00:15:20Can we just sit down?
00:15:22Just sit.
00:15:24I think Louisao doesn't want to do it.
00:15:26She can't do it.
00:15:29I think this is fine.
00:15:32It's the least, man.
00:15:34This is my home.
00:15:48It was lovely.
00:15:52It's lovely.
00:16:01It's always really well.
00:16:02It's always lovely.
00:16:32It's all down, right?
00:16:56Sit.
00:16:57Leave him.
00:16:58She's fine.
00:17:02Did she have a seizure?
00:17:26No, but she has all the other symptoms.
00:17:28Well, I'll telegraph Peter first thing in the morning.
00:17:32Tell him what's happened.
00:17:34And let him know I think it's best that Annie stay here for the remainder of her pregnancy.
00:17:37Bed rest is crucial.
00:17:38Well, I'm at it all.
00:17:40Why are his mother?
00:17:41You said she lives in Spartan.
00:17:48Do you really think this is necessary?
00:17:50Total rest for you, Mrs. Watson, in a dark room is conducive to rest.
00:17:54To being lazy, you mean?
00:17:56I cannot just lay around all day.
00:17:58I'm a doctor, remember?
00:17:59But I am your doctor and this is my home.
00:18:01And if it is enclampsia, you know bed rest is called for.
00:18:05Don't you think you're overreacting?
00:18:06Perhaps.
00:18:07But if I'm not, I won't be sorry later.
00:18:11I love you.
00:18:11I love you, too.
00:18:21Prepare for my peach.
00:18:22Are you sure you don't want me to stay home with Aunt Annie?
00:18:28No, you just run along to school.
00:18:30I'll post a note on the clinic and if someone really needs me, they know where to find me.
00:18:34Morning, ladies.
00:18:35Morning.
00:18:37Bye, ma.
00:18:38Have a good day, darling.
00:18:39Bye, ma.
00:18:39Bye.
00:18:39That girl kicks up a cloud of dust everywhere she goes.
00:18:45Here you go.
00:18:49Is this your way of telling me not to come home for supper?
00:18:51The other one is for Joshua.
00:18:53A young man just starting off looked like he could use a few more good meals.
00:18:57Do you have any idea how much I love you?
00:18:59Well, it never hurts to hear.
00:19:02I love you, too, Lee Owens.
00:19:06Oh, and don't forget to send the telegrams.
00:19:09All right.
00:19:11Have a good day, sweet darling.
00:19:24Belinda feels Annie's health as well as the baby's is better served staying here until after the delivery.
00:19:30I have wired Peter the same message.
00:19:32Lee Owens.
00:19:34That's what he said.
00:19:36Dr. McQueen, sorry, we're closed today, but if you'd like to make an appointment...
00:19:49Were you the one that gave Mabel this tonic?
00:19:51Yes, it's iron for her anemia.
00:19:53Why you got to go telling her she's got this and that condition?
00:19:55What she has is a spell of laziness.
00:19:58Mabel is sick, Mr. McQueen.
00:20:00Give her that medicine.
00:20:01I don't need your magic potion.
00:20:03A doctor killed my sister with tonic.
00:20:06I don't know the details of your sister's death, but there's no magic to it.
00:20:11Your wife had a baby a month ago, and she has a very serious medical condition.
00:20:15Maybe if you weren't so hard-headed, you would realize that.
00:20:18Now, my advice...
00:20:19I don't need your mouth nor your advice, and I don't need your magic potion.
00:20:23Doctors aren't worth a...
00:20:24Who's in the hollering?
00:20:25Hey!
00:20:29Are you all right, Belinda?
00:20:31Yes, I'm just frustrated.
00:20:32I'm a very stubborn and hard-headed man.
00:20:35Roy McQueen is truly set in his ways, but he's still a child of our maker.
00:20:40He has no compassion for his wife's condition.
00:20:42Can't we all get caught up in our own lives at times and lose sight of the compassion we
00:20:46should have for others?
00:20:49There I go preaching again.
00:20:50Oh, it's all right.
00:20:51I suppose I needed to hear it.
00:20:54I'll see you in church, Belinda.
00:20:56Good day.
00:21:08That's it.
00:21:09Steady blows.
00:21:10All right.
00:21:12Your daughter seems very smart, Mr. Owens.
00:21:18Must run in the family.
00:21:22I wish I could take credit for Lillian's intelligence, but she was adopted.
00:21:27Still, I couldn't be prouder.
00:21:28Really?
00:21:29I never would have known.
00:21:31I mean, she and Mrs....
00:21:33I mean, Dr. Owens sort of look alike.
00:21:36Is that a fact?
00:21:38Yeah, I mean, it's just...
00:21:40Lillian's very pretty.
00:21:40Yeah, I know she's pretty.
00:21:56I'm truthfully not that hungry.
00:21:58Doctor's orders.
00:21:59Even if you don't feel up to it, you need to finish the entire wall.
00:22:03I'm not a child, Belinda.
00:22:05And I'm a doctor.
00:22:06I think I know what's best for me.
00:22:08Knowing and doing are two entirely different things.
00:22:10Is that another contraction?
00:22:13No, the baby's just kicking.
00:22:16And I have to tell you, I'm a little relieved.
00:22:18I haven't felt a move since the contractions yesterday.
00:22:21You just said it was...
00:22:23He?
00:22:24How do you know it's a boy?
00:22:25I know it sounds silly, but...
00:22:28Mary thinks because I'm carrying so low that it'll be a boy.
00:22:31It is silly.
00:22:32That's an old wives' tale.
00:22:33There's no medical merit to it.
00:22:35Say what you want, but when Peter's sister was pregnant,
00:22:38Mary was concerned because she was carrying so far out in front.
00:22:41She said it would be a breached birth, and she was right.
00:22:44One lucky guess, and she's got you believing made-up stories.
00:22:47Goodness, he's getting his exercise today.
00:22:50You want to feel?
00:22:51That's all right.
00:22:52Come on, Belinda.
00:22:55You'll be nervous.
00:22:59It's so strange.
00:23:01I never thought I'd be a mother.
00:23:03It suddenly feels like the most natural thing in the world.
00:23:10I'm sorry.
00:23:12I've opened that wound, haven't I?
00:23:14Maybe we shouldn't talk about it.
00:23:16You know, I know so many women that have gotten pregnant without even trying.
00:23:20And Lee and I have been trying.
00:23:22We've both seen it take some time.
00:23:25You just can't get impatient with yourself.
00:23:28I look after this one woman, Mabel McQueen.
00:23:31She's had six babies in the past eight years without even trying.
00:23:35It's important to you, isn't it?
00:23:41We best get supper ready.
00:23:43Lee and Lillian will be home soon.
00:23:46I'm here to talk whenever you'd like to.
00:23:47Please eat your soup, Annie.
00:24:04I was wondering where you'd run off to.
00:24:06I just looked in on Annie.
00:24:14She's out for the night.
00:24:16She keeps insisting she feels fine.
00:24:18I think I've heard that before.
00:24:24You two are so much alike, it's frightening.
00:24:28I suppose it's why we're such good friends.
00:24:30I noticed you didn't have Joshua over for supper tonight.
00:24:35I'm pretty sure he's sweet on Lil.
00:24:38I don't want the two of them spending too much time together.
00:24:41Why not?
00:24:42He's only a couple years older.
00:24:44Doc, he's an apprentice blacksmith.
00:24:46I want better for Lillian.
00:24:47I'm the wife of a blacksmith, and you don't hear me complaining.
00:24:51I spent the last five years trying to figure out how I tricked you into marrying me.
00:24:55You could have done much better.
00:24:56You didn't trick me into anything.
00:24:59I married you because I fell in love with you, Leon.
00:25:02And if Lillian and Joshua had taken interest in one another,
00:25:05I don't think it's our place to stand in their way.
00:25:08Besides, telling Lillian she can't have somethings.
00:25:11Like daring to try to stop her.
00:25:13I get your point.
00:25:18I don't want to get in the way of her happiness.
00:25:21Still, you left a small town to follow your dream.
00:25:26And if Lill wants to go to college, I darn sure want to see it happen.
00:25:30I don't want her tied down to Saxon.
00:25:34I hope she knows what a wonderful and caring father she has.
00:25:40It's getting a little chilly.
00:25:41You want to turn in for the night?
00:25:44You go ahead.
00:25:45I'll be up in a little while.
00:25:46Don't be in such a hurry, pretty lady.
00:26:07Please allow me to pass.
00:26:11We need to get to know each other.
00:26:15I think not.
00:26:16I don't want to be late for school.
00:26:18I can teach you more than any school can.
00:26:21Excuse me.
00:26:23You mind letting the young lady pass?
00:26:25This ain't none of your affairs, sod buster.
00:26:27Ah, but it is.
00:26:28It ain't.
00:26:29You knock your head off, boy.
00:26:36Now, you hold on a second.
00:26:38Now, the good book tells me to turn the other cheek.
00:26:40Now, I only have two.
00:26:41So, after the second, I'm on my own.
00:26:43That was the second cheek.
00:26:51You're breaking my wrist.
00:26:52Well, I understand.
00:26:53There's a fine doctor in town.
00:26:54Please, don't.
00:26:56Please, don't break.
00:26:57I trust I'll never see you around Miss Owens again.
00:26:59No, never.
00:27:00Good.
00:27:01Now, get.
00:27:02Morning, Miss Owens.
00:27:14You on your way to school?
00:27:16Indeed I am.
00:27:18May I walk with you?
00:27:27I did the best I could, Jim, but you better go easy on it, all right?
00:27:32My boss strikes me as a hard-working man.
00:27:45He lives and breathes work.
00:27:48Ma says sometimes he rolls open to sleep and tries to use their arms like a set of tongs.
00:27:52I guess that's the future I have to look forward to.
00:27:54Not such a bad life, really.
00:28:00So, what about you?
00:28:02A doctor like your mom?
00:28:04I don't know.
00:28:05I haven't decided.
00:28:07Maybe I want to be a lawyer or a famous writer like Harriet Beecher Stowe.
00:28:10One thing for sure, I want to go to college.
00:28:13Well, I better get to work.
00:28:15Have a nice day, Joshua.
00:28:18You too, Lily.
00:28:19I don't think you should be climbing the stairs, but I feel fine.
00:28:34What's making me crazy is sitting in a dark room all day.
00:28:37But it's only been three days since you had pain and felt faint.
00:28:40You know the symptoms and treatment as well as I do.
00:28:43That's assuming your diagnosis is correct.
00:28:49Is that singing?
00:28:50I would know that voice anywhere.
00:28:52That's Mary.
00:28:54Your mother-in-law?
00:28:55What reason does she have to be here?
00:28:56Mary doesn't need a reason to do anything.
00:28:58Well, this must be it.
00:29:14Oh, jeez.
00:29:16Thank you, my good man.
00:29:18And you have a blessed day.
00:29:22And you must be the infamous Doc Owen.
00:29:26Oh, my goodness.
00:29:27Mary Watson.
00:29:29Oh, do you know that already?
00:29:31Now, where is my peach pie?
00:29:34Would you be a dear and bring my thing along?
00:29:43Mary, what are you doing here?
00:29:45Where else would you expect me to be, oh, my little lamb?
00:29:49But didn't you get the telegraph from Melinda's husband?
00:29:51I did.
00:29:51That's why I'm here.
00:29:52I have nothing against you finishing out your term with your friend.
00:29:56But I certainly wasn't going to miss the birth of my first grandson.
00:30:01I've missed you.
00:30:02Oh, it's darker than the inside of a cow in here.
00:30:05Yes, it is.
00:30:06Oh, please don't do that.
00:30:08What?
00:30:08She's not a mushroom.
00:30:10She needs light.
00:30:11All right.
00:30:12Let's sit up so I can get a good look.
00:30:15I'm sorry.
00:30:15What are you doing?
00:30:16I'm getting her upright.
00:30:17If she stays in this bed too long, she'll get a crick in her back and it'll make delivery
00:30:22much more painful.
00:30:23I think it's better that she's on bed rest for the remainder of her term.
00:30:26It's not going to hurt her to sit up.
00:30:29When you've delivered as many babies as I have, you learn a few things.
00:30:33Well, I've been to medical school for years and rest is the proper treatment.
00:30:37You don't learn everything in medical school.
00:30:40That is a matter of opinion and I wholeheartedly disagree.
00:30:44Ladies, I'm not a sack of flour.
00:30:46There I was in the middle of the worst blizzard I ever saw.
00:30:58I wasn't too surprised when three babies were delivered that night.
00:31:04I expected twins, not triplets.
00:31:08In a blizzard?
00:31:09Oh, the little ones pop out whenever they want, regardless of the weather.
00:31:13Fortunately, I don't have many emergencies.
00:31:16Women giving birth are always an emergency.
00:31:21That's the penalty we pay for Eve eating the apple.
00:31:26It is not a penalty.
00:31:27Wow, Mrs. Watson, you sure got an exciting life.
00:31:30Well, I should probably get you up to your room, Annie.
00:31:33You let that little fella start running your life now, you'll be lacing his shoes when he's 30.
00:31:39Yes, Annie told me you believe it's a boy.
00:31:41I can't believe nothing.
00:31:43It's a fact.
00:31:44Honestly, Mary, you can't possibly...
00:31:46Actually, I am a little tired.
00:31:48I'm going to go to bed.
00:31:51I can manage on my own.
00:31:53Good night, all.
00:31:55Good night, Annie.
00:31:55Rest well, dear.
00:31:57Good night, Annie.
00:31:58Good night, Annie.
00:32:03There is no way to tell whether...
00:32:05Well, I think it's time we all settle down.
00:32:07Huh?
00:32:07We have a full day tomorrow.
00:32:08Thank you for dinner, Dr. Holmes.
00:32:18Joshua, William told us that you came to her rescue.
00:32:22Our mother and I both appreciate it.
00:32:24It was my pleasure, sir.
00:32:25Thank you again.
00:32:29I'll walk you out.
00:32:38Aren't they the most adorable couple?
00:32:45So tell me, how was Captain Nemo this evening?
00:32:49When I left him, he was exploring the ruins of Atlantis, although I can't say for sure what
00:32:53he does when I'm not looking.
00:32:55I never met a girl who made a book sound so interesting.
00:32:58You can borrow it if you like.
00:32:59No, no, I'm not sure if I'm sold on Nemo just yet.
00:33:03Maybe you could read some of it to me, though.
00:33:05Just so I can find out if it's my kind of story.
00:33:08I could do that.
00:33:09Would you like to go on a picnic with me?
00:33:12Maybe on Saturday?
00:33:13We can go out and find a nice quiet spot and read.
00:33:17I think I know just the place.
00:33:20Lee Owens, you are not spying on our only daughter.
00:33:22I'm not spying on her.
00:33:23I'm just looking out for her.
00:33:25Good night.
00:33:52Let's see what you got there.
00:33:55Well, you're really improving.
00:33:59Thank you, sir.
00:34:00I'm trying my best to impress you.
00:34:03As long as it's me you're trying to impress.
00:34:07Well, to be honest, I wanted to ask you, maybe Lily and I...
00:34:15You want permission to court Lily, right?
00:34:19Yes, sir.
00:34:20Well, I don't want her distracted from her goals.
00:34:23I promise I'll be respectful of her and not get in the way of her schooling.
00:34:26I know how much she wants to go to college.
00:34:28Well, I'll think about it.
00:34:32All right?
00:34:33I understand.
00:34:35Meantime, finish up with that horseshoe.
00:34:39Nobody wants his order by noon.
00:34:41Yes, sir.
00:34:41You're going to be late opening your clinic.
00:34:44I don't feel comfortable leaving Annie here all alone.
00:34:48And I certainly don't feel comfortable with her being out of bed this much.
00:34:51You know, I wish the two of you wouldn't talk about me as if I wasn't sitting right here.
00:34:56Sorry, sweetheart.
00:34:57You must be so frustrated, pooped up inside all the time.
00:35:02I will be here with her all day.
00:35:06You tend to your patience and we'll see you at supper.
00:35:13If you need anything, I'll be close by.
00:35:17Have a nice day.
00:35:22Praise the Lord, we're free.
00:35:24Peach Pie, you get dressed.
00:35:29We are going out to smell the roses.
00:35:34Coming to town.
00:35:44Doc Owens, can I talk to you?
00:35:46Mrs. McQueen, come in.
00:35:51I only have a minute.
00:35:52I left Lloyd at the general store.
00:35:54Said I was running to the butcher.
00:35:55What can I do for you, Mabel?
00:35:57Doc, I feel terrible.
00:35:58This sickness, it's just getting worse.
00:36:00I'm dizzy all the time and I can barely pick up the youngins.
00:36:03That's because your anemia is getting worse.
00:36:05Your body needs iron.
00:36:06You're only going to get sicker.
00:36:08What can I do to make it better?
00:36:09I already told you.
00:36:11Vegetables are the tonic.
00:36:12If you don't listen to my instructions, there is nothing more I can do.
00:36:15I tried to take the tonic.
00:36:16Really, I did.
00:36:17Even started to feel a little stronger.
00:36:20And then Lloyd found it and you know the rest.
00:36:22I certainly do.
00:36:24He threw a bottle at me.
00:36:25I'm sorry for that.
00:36:26Really, I am.
00:36:27He was just upset.
00:36:28He didn't mean anything by it.
00:36:30He's a wonderful husband and a father.
00:36:32Maybe.
00:36:33But I can't help you if you won't help yourself.
00:36:40Good day, Mrs. McQueen.
00:36:41Your friend Melinda doesn't seem too happy.
00:37:04I'd say it's just that she doesn't like me, but everybody likes me.
00:37:10She isn't happy.
00:37:12She's been trying to have a baby.
00:37:15And Melinda just feels discouraged.
00:37:17Me showing up in my condition and staying till the baby comes.
00:37:21I think it's just another painful reminder.
00:37:24Why didn't you say something sooner?
00:37:27If it's baby trouble she's got.
00:37:30I've surely got the cure.
00:37:32How about a sugary treat?
00:37:34I'm sorry, Lloyd.
00:37:39It isn't here yet.
00:37:40It's been over a week.
00:37:41You said it'd be here by now.
00:37:43The freight line lost the shipping order.
00:37:45There's nothing I can do about it.
00:37:47There's something I could do if there was another general store within ten miles of here.
00:37:51It'll be here within a week.
00:37:53I'm here, Lloyd.
00:37:57What took you so long?
00:37:59I'm sorry, Lloyd.
00:38:00There was a little bit of a line.
00:38:01There's always an excuse.
00:38:03Let's get out of here.
00:38:04I got fences to mend before sundown.
00:38:11She's just feeling poorly or late.
00:38:19She's got a newborn and five youngins.
00:38:21It says it wears her out.
00:38:22You think a mother doesn't work?
00:38:27I've seen this a bunch during and after pregnancy.
00:38:30This is a severe case of anemia.
00:38:32She don't need coddling, lady.
00:38:34I know how to take care of my wife.
00:38:36No, you don't.
00:38:38You are selfish and rude and contentious and you can't see the forest for the trees.
00:38:46Doc Owens is trying to save your wife's life.
00:38:50She's dying.
00:38:51You get her over to the clinic and you beg Doc Owens for more of that tonic.
00:38:58Don't talk to me, Lord.
00:39:00I'll talk to you any way I want.
00:39:02Get her to the clinic.
00:39:08You better pray to the merciful and good Lord that she doesn't slam the door in your ungrateful face.
00:39:17Amen.
00:39:18Amen.
00:39:18Amen.
00:39:19Amen.
00:39:19Amen.
00:39:19Amen.
00:39:19Amen.
00:39:19Amen.
00:39:20Amen.
00:39:21Amen.
00:39:22Amen.
00:39:23Amen.
00:39:24Amen.
00:39:25Amen.
00:39:26Amen.
00:39:27Amen.
00:39:28Amen.
00:39:29Amen.
00:39:30Amen.
00:39:31Amen.
00:39:32Give you a double dose, so do not take any more today.
00:39:34Amen.
00:39:35No, ma'am.
00:39:36Starting tomorrow morning, take two teaspoons every morning.
00:39:38And if you don't get your strength back in four days, get back in here.
00:39:41Amen.
00:39:42Amen.
00:39:42Amen.
00:39:43Amen.
00:39:43Amen.
00:39:44Amen.
00:39:45Amen.
00:39:47I'd like to apologize.
00:39:49The last time we spoke, I lost my temper.
00:39:52What'll owe you for the tonic?
00:39:54Only that you allow her to keep taking it.
00:39:56We don't need no charity.
00:39:57The first one was already paid for. This is just a replacement.
00:40:02Step up!
00:40:15yes dear i'm sorry you're sleeping well not anymore
00:40:24my apprentice wants to court lillian his name is joshua
00:40:31i told him i'd think about it
00:40:35well then think don't think too long lillian's grown up
00:40:41i'm having a hard time with it
00:40:43you're having a hard time letting her grow up
00:40:46i was trying to protect her
00:40:48i don't think she needs protection from joshua
00:40:51he's a very nice young man
00:40:53that's all you have to say about it
00:40:56good night sweetheart
00:40:58all right
00:41:04tomorrow i'll give joshua my permission to court lillian
00:41:09do you think i don't know about your little excursion with annie this town is filled with
00:41:13gossips can't keep a secret for more than five minutes it's a pretty little town sikeston i can see why you like it here may i ask why you feel the need to go against every instruction i have for annie i'd like to ask you to beware if you're a seel
00:41:25filled with gossips can't keep a secret for more than five minutes it's a pretty little town
00:41:30sykeston i can see why you like it here may i ask why you feel the need to go against every
00:41:37instruction i have for annie i don't deliberately go against your word we just disagree about how
00:41:45to treat her this isn't a competition mary if a patient came to you with gangrene or pneumonia
00:41:50i wouldn't dream of telling you how to treat them that's your business babies are my business
00:41:57have been for 30 years it's just there's been so many new advancements sometimes the old ways are
00:42:04best annie may have a serious condition which could be fatal to both her and the baby are you sure of
00:42:10course i'm not sure but i'm not taking any chances so it's true what they say that doctors only practice
00:42:16medicine this conversation obviously isn't getting this anywhere
00:42:22so annie tells me you're barren or uh or having trouble anyway i don't think that's any of your
00:42:31concern i see this problem a lot if you want i could give you some remedies that are guaranteed to
00:42:37work i know how it's done mary i don't think there's anything wrong with you so what do you
00:42:42think is the problem you're too high strung folks worry too much about work family or whether or not
00:42:50they can have a baby then years go by and nothing happens then one day they decide to stop trying and
00:42:58before you know it they find they're with child so your sage advice for me is to relax read a book
00:43:07before you go to bed take some deep breath and before you know it i'll be back to deliver your
00:43:14little one i'll make sure i try that
00:43:16every baby boy needs his own blanket don't you agree yes i do
00:43:40i'm gonna head to the shop for a few hours i'll be back in time for supper don't you ever take time
00:43:53off oh the good book says that a man who doesn't work doesn't deserve to eat i ain't got a lot of work
00:43:58to do we just thought you'd have more time off once you hired an apprentice and i do now i'm only
00:44:02two weeks behind instead of six
00:44:04you look lovely where you headed off to joshua and i are having a picnic you enjoy yourself and
00:44:13please tell joshua that we said hello i will you be back in time for supper now no exceptions i will i promise

00:45:17twenty thousand leagues is an allegory it's about personal freedom
00:45:21nemo means nobody in latin and he's invisible to the world and wants to keep it that way
00:45:25you're brilliant you know that

00:45:28lee you work harder than any man i know
00:45:43well i can't let the customers down
00:45:45besides it gives me thinking time
00:45:47anything that you'd like to share with your pastor
00:45:50this is a lot of rumbling around in my head like a marble
00:45:54sometimes it helps to speak it out loud talking to yourself only gets the answer you're looking for
00:46:00i just can't figure lillian out
00:46:02i'm trying to be a good father to her
00:46:05our children grow up start spreading their wings
00:46:09the father has to be aware of that and try to grow with his child
00:46:14yeah belinda tolerates more than i do
00:46:18she's a mother
00:46:19the good lord gave them the patience of joe when it comes to raising their children
00:46:23he shortchanged fathers in that area
00:46:26yeah
00:46:27yeah
00:46:29i really wish you would get some rest
00:46:36i feel fine
00:46:38looks like someone may have been wrong about my condition
00:46:41perhaps
00:46:42so if things improve with lee
00:46:47he says he isn't bothered but
00:46:49i still sense that he's disappointed we can't have a baby
00:46:52well maybe you're just being overly sensitive and you think that he's disappointed
00:46:56maybe
00:46:57you know i'm starting to think that maybe she would rest marrying me
00:47:01now lee
00:47:03that is just plain nonsense
00:47:05she's proud as a peacock that she married you
00:47:08maybe
00:47:08have you spoken to her about it
00:47:11in a roundabout way
00:47:13of course she says i'm wrong
00:47:14still she seems kind of distant lately
00:47:18she's got something on her mind
00:47:20most women do when they get like that
00:47:22you know we're uh
00:47:25trying to have a baby
00:47:28so far no luck
00:47:30you have to have faith
00:47:32sometimes it's hard river
00:47:35talk to her about your feelings
00:47:38i'd best be getting home
00:47:41this is dave so give me an earful if i'm late for supper
00:47:45and myself included
00:47:46well i see
00:47:54you didn't need my help putting supper on the table
00:47:57you're taking a nap
00:47:59we just wanted you to be able to rest
00:48:01i'll rest enough when i'm dead
00:48:02give me that knife before you cut yourself
00:48:06so do you miss your family
00:48:14i do
00:48:15my pa's a farmer back in pennsylvania
00:48:18you wanted more for me than to spend my entire life plowing fields
00:48:22so
00:48:22said if i got good enough maybe i can find some work in philadelphia
00:48:26sounds like he cares about you a lot
00:48:28yeah my family's pretty close
00:48:30it's kind of strange though
00:48:33you know
00:48:34being out here all by myself
00:48:36i have three sisters and two brothers and not a moment apiece
00:48:39back at the boarding house i got nothing but quiet
00:48:41i know what you mean
00:48:42i mostly grew up in an orphanage until ma and pa adopted me when i was ten
00:48:47i'd spent so long in a room with other kids i couldn't wait to have a room of my own
00:48:51now i miss having someone to talk to
00:48:54yeah me
00:48:56do don't i
00:48:58so tell me something
00:49:02how'd you ever find a place like this anyway
00:49:05i stumbled across it by accident while riding one day
00:49:08but it's so far off the main roads no one really comes out here
00:49:11so i brought some of my old stuff and
00:49:15now it's where i come to be alone
00:49:17i can see why
00:49:18captain nemo had a cave near the ocean where he went to escape
00:49:21this reminds me of it
00:49:24well the timber still seems
00:49:27i wouldn't do that
00:49:28oh
00:49:29not as sound as you might think
00:49:34you're probably right
00:49:35i think it's best we pack up
00:49:38well i'm happy to see you and mary are getting along
00:49:45you know her fertility advice to me was to relax
00:49:49and read a book before bed
00:49:52did you try it
00:49:53of course not
00:49:54she's been doing this longer than we've been alive
00:49:57i can't believe you annie watson
00:49:59you've spent three years in medical school
00:50:02five years practicing medicine
00:50:03and you're gonna believe that woman's folk magic
00:50:05it's rubbish plain and simple
00:50:07we ask people to believe in things they don't understand and they do
00:50:11because they have trust and faith in us
00:50:14just like they have faith in the lord
00:50:15okay
00:50:16it is not the same thing and we're talking about mary here
00:50:18why do you have such a hard time believing in mary's ways
00:50:21okay
00:50:21mary is a lovely woman
00:50:24but you have to admit
00:50:25she's a little touch in the head
00:50:27she doesn't like me any more than i like her
00:50:29really
00:50:30the other day at the general store
00:50:33mary defended you to the ends of the earth
00:50:35what are you talking about
00:50:36the man with the anemic wife
00:50:38the one that you said was such a success story
00:50:40mary is the reason that he brought her back to you
00:50:43that's why lloyd mcqueen brought his wife back to me
00:50:46mary unloaded on him like a tornado
00:50:48spoke up for you
00:50:50and just plain made him cower
00:50:51do you have any idea what time it is
00:51:05hi pa
00:51:06you're supposed to be home for supper
00:51:08joshua and i weren't that hungry
00:51:11so we decided to stay out a little while longer
00:51:12well it's well past supper
00:51:13that's more than a little while
00:51:15why are you so angry
00:51:16i thought i could trust your judgment
00:51:18but apparently i was wrong
00:51:19what's that supposed to mean
00:51:20it means you can't spend any more time
00:51:22with joshua coil until i say so
00:51:24you'll go to school
00:51:25help your mother at the clinic
00:51:26and come straight home
00:51:27for how long
00:51:28as long as it takes me to trust you again
00:51:30that's completely unfair
00:51:31joshua is only two years older than i am
00:51:33and no one tells him what to do
00:51:34no one said the world was fair
00:51:36young lady
00:51:36lil
00:51:38i was worried about you
00:51:42hello joshua

00:52:23ma i can't find the
00:52:25bandages
00:52:27pa said i can't see you for a while

00:54:18oh you'll do fine

00:54:22the last thing you need is an old granny midwife gumming up the works

00:59:58It's a beautiful baby boy, and your wife is fine.
01:00:15Can I see them?
01:00:16Shortly.
01:00:20Well, looks like we got ourselves a baby brother.
01:00:28Isn't he beautiful?
01:00:30He sure is.
01:00:34He better be.
01:00:36Leave it to a boy to jam up the works.
01:00:49Uh, that's not doctor's work.
01:00:53It doesn't matter who does it, just as long as it gets done.
01:00:58I learned something today that they didn't teach me in medical school.
01:01:02Okay.
01:01:28All right.
01:01:46Whoa.
01:01:47Whoa.
01:01:56Whoa.
01:02:00You seen Lillian?
01:02:01No, why?
01:02:02Well, we thought she might be with you.
01:02:04She's been missing all afternoon.
01:02:05We got in an argument at the shop over Mr. Owens, and she stormed off.
01:02:09Said you were the only one who understands her.
01:02:10We were hoping she'd run off to find you.
01:02:12She rode off on that crazy horse I bought for her.
01:02:15It's about to get dark outside.
01:02:17She gets stuck in the countryside.
01:02:19I think I know where she is.
01:02:20It's worse this time.
01:02:42I feel like I could faint.
01:02:43Okay, okay.
01:02:43Let's get her inside.
01:02:45It looks as if the doctor was right about bed rest.
01:02:48It looks as if the doctor was right about bed rest.
01:03:18How much further?
01:03:24She's just up ahead.
01:03:33How are you feeling?
01:03:35I'm really not as light as it is before.
01:03:37I like to just go to bed.
01:03:40Let's get you upstairs to a darkened room.
01:03:42Doctor's orders.
01:03:43Woa.
01:03:50Loa.
01:03:53Loa.
01:03:54Loa.
01:03:54Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:04:20Was it like this before?
01:04:22No, sir.
01:04:23Looks like there is a cave-in.
01:04:25She might be hurt.
01:04:28This is one of her lamps.
01:04:29Come on, let's go.
01:04:31Lil!
01:04:33Lil!
01:04:41It's right up there.
01:04:43I see her.
01:04:46Lil!
01:04:50Lil!
01:04:51Give me a hand with this.
01:04:53One, two, three!
01:04:58We got it!
01:05:00We got it!
01:05:00Lil!
01:05:01Lil!
01:05:03Lil!
01:05:04Come on, talk to me, pumpkin.
01:05:12Pa?
01:05:13Yeah.
01:05:15I'm here, Ronnie.
01:05:18Just take it easy.
01:05:19Just stay down, all right?
01:05:23I'm going to get you out of here.
01:05:24Okay.
01:05:25Mm-hmm.
01:05:27We got it.
01:05:39I know.
01:05:46I'm going to go thank you.
01:05:47How's Lilian?
01:05:52A few cuts and bruises, but
01:05:52nothing that won't heal nicely.
01:05:55She's out for the night.
01:05:56Lee's sitting with her for a while
01:05:59Give her a couple of days
01:06:01She'll be right as rain
01:06:02At that age, nothing keeps them down
01:06:06Well, I think her ego
01:06:07Has suffered more than her body
01:06:09Ah, this too shall pass
01:06:12Children are just
01:06:15So resilient, aren't they?
01:06:18True miracles
01:06:19Are you still fretting about the baby making?
01:06:22I don't think I'll be making babies
01:06:24Anytime soon, Mary
01:06:25Give it up if you want
01:06:27But I'm telling you
01:06:29The shine in your hair
01:06:32Is not the mark of a barren woman
01:06:35You don't really believe that, do you?
01:06:37It doesn't matter what I believe
01:06:38It only matters what you believe
01:06:39What do you mean?
01:06:41Medicine isn't the only thing that makes people feel better
01:06:44It's believing that they can be better
01:06:50I'm sorry, I doubted you
01:06:52You didn't deserve it
01:06:54The Lord says
01:06:56We are to forgive
01:06:57If we expect to be forgiven
01:06:59Make me some fresh bacon and eggs in the morning
01:07:03And all is forgiven
01:07:05That's a promise
01:07:07Late night tonight
01:07:17Everyone's worn out
01:07:19A little sleeping like a book
01:07:21You know
01:07:28I think I might
01:07:31Read a book before bed tonight
01:07:34Really?
01:07:35You never read in bed
01:07:36I think it'll do me good
01:07:38Help me unwind
01:07:40After the long day we've all had
01:07:42Hmm
01:07:42Doc
01:07:48I've been thinking about us trying to have a baby
01:07:53Lil's changed our lives in so many wonderful ways
01:07:57And I'm sure there's plenty of children down at the orphanage
01:08:00You need a good home
01:08:01You mean you'll still be happy
01:08:03Even if we can't have children of our home?
01:08:05I'll be happy as long as I'm with you
01:08:08Always have been
01:08:10Always will be
01:08:11Do you think my hair is shiny?
01:08:18Yeah
01:08:19Yeah, like the sunrise
01:08:21I do love you, Mr. Owens
01:08:27I love you, too
01:08:30Okay
01:08:31Oh, all right
01:08:34You can read your book now
01:08:35Okay
01:08:36All right
01:08:38I'll just go to sleep
01:08:41I'm sure I can't help you read it
01:08:50No
01:08:50All right
01:08:52Shouldn't you be in bed?
01:09:03My ball and chain let me come downstairs
01:09:05She has her mind set on going to the ice cream social
01:09:10What if I find a shady, comfortable place to just sit and eat ice cream?
01:09:14You are not going to the social
01:09:16I am a doctor! I vote yes!
01:09:18Well, that's one vote for Dr. Annie and one vote for the midwife
01:09:22I guess you've got the tie-breaking vote, Doc
01:09:25I'm sorry, Annie
01:09:29I'm going to have to side with the midwife
01:09:31But I love ice cream
01:09:33Then I'll send you some
01:09:34It's not the same
01:09:35How do I know you're not going to sneak out when we're gone?
01:09:37Don't give it a second thought, Doc
01:09:39This old ball and chain will be sitting right here like a prison warden
01:09:44You're both against me
01:09:45That's right, read your book and pout
01:09:48Don't you look beautiful?
01:10:03Except for this
01:10:04Oh, no one will even notice that
01:10:06Even Joshua
01:10:07Especially Joshua
01:10:08Thanks for telling Joshua you're going to escort me to the social
01:10:12You're still coming with your mother and I, right?
01:10:15I told him I wanted to walk in with my family and see him from afar
01:10:17That's very romantic
01:10:19Must be from all the books I read
01:10:21Pa
01:10:23I'm sorry for not making curfew the other night
01:10:27I don't know you were just worried about me
01:10:30Don't worry about it
01:10:31You're growing up so fast sometimes I can't keep up with you
01:10:35Thanks, Paul
01:10:37Come here
01:10:38And then he stepped like this
01:10:54Here we go
01:11:02Mr. Owens, Dr. Owens, would you like some lemonade?
01:11:05No, thank you
01:11:06No, thank you, Joshua
01:11:07Hey, partner
01:11:15How's your ice cream?
01:11:18Doc Owens, can we talk?
01:11:20What?
01:11:21Do you know my husband, Lee?
01:11:22Gordon
01:11:24I want to thank you
01:11:25Mabel's as different as night and day
01:11:28It's all I can do to keep up with her
01:11:30Well, you do look like a brand new person
01:11:32I've had a lot more energy
01:11:33I still need some extra sleep in the afternoons
01:11:36I'm getting stronger every day
01:11:37Well, the best medicine is no good
01:11:39If it isn't dispensed to receive with a joyful spirit
01:11:41It's all too easy to forget that
01:11:45Well, I, uh
01:11:46Mostly want to apologize for being stubborn
01:11:50Thanks again, Doc
01:11:52It was my pleasure
01:11:54And I should be the one to apologize to you, Mabel
01:11:58I had no right to be cross with you when you needed my help
01:12:01I hope you can forgive me
01:12:02There's nothing to forgive
01:12:04Thank you
01:12:06Wow, look at that
01:12:13That was a very nice thing you just did
01:12:16You'd like some ice cream?
01:12:19I'd love some
01:12:19I got these telegrams
01:12:39Where's Annie?
01:12:40The Lord brought you at the right time
01:12:41Everyone's in town at a social
01:12:44I need Belinda now
01:12:45I want to see Annie
01:12:46Get Belinda now
01:12:49You look beautiful
01:12:55So you look handsome
01:12:57I still can't believe it
01:13:01Can't believe what?
01:13:03That I'm here with the smartest, most beautiful girl in town
01:13:07It's very sweet of you to say, Joshua
01:13:11Lillian's got a boyfriend
01:13:25Lillian's got a boyfriend
01:13:27Lillian's got a boyfriend
01:13:29Lillian's got a boyfriend
01:13:31Gracie, Shannon, you go on and get out of here
01:13:33Melinda, John Goins, I need you
01:13:44Melinda, Peter, it's Annie
01:13:53You gotta come quick
01:13:53Joshua, you see to it
01:13:56Then Lillian gets home safe
01:13:57Yes, sir
01:13:58Mary, thank God you're back
01:14:11She's had a seizure
01:14:12I've got her in bed
01:14:13Pete
01:14:15I'm the best way down here
01:14:17There's nothing you can do up there
01:14:20Dear Lord
01:14:30Please watch over Annie and her baby
01:14:32Amen
01:14:37Amen
01:14:38Thank you, Lee
01:14:40You're welcome
01:14:41Come on, let's have a seat
01:14:50Peter
01:14:57He's waiting downstairs
01:14:59Right
01:15:01It is Eclipsia
01:15:05I'm afraid so
01:15:06Please save my baby
01:15:10I know what you have to do
01:15:13I'm gonna close my eyes now
01:15:24What did she mean
01:15:38You know what has to be done
01:15:40That baby has to come out
01:15:42If we're to save it
01:15:43Even at the risk of her own life
01:15:45That baby is ready
01:15:47She was talking about a cesarean delivery
01:15:50Which I could do at the clinic
01:15:52But under very crude conditions
01:15:55Have you ever done one?
01:15:57I did one once at a hospital in Boston
01:15:59But I had the proper equipment and staff
01:16:02And there wasn't a clamsy involved
01:16:04Is there no other choice?
01:16:08Not if she doesn't go into Lillian soon
01:16:10Well then
01:16:11We best get that labor going
01:16:14What is that?
01:16:21Scotch broom with a little vanilla to help it go down
01:16:24Women have been using it for centuries
01:16:26Scotch broom is a weed?
01:16:28A weed the good lord made
01:16:30His wonders to perceive
01:16:32Doesn't work
01:16:34Sure is the sunrise
01:16:35A little of this
01:16:37And we'll have our baby boy
01:16:40In no time
01:16:41Is there anything else I can do?
01:16:48A glass of water
01:16:48I can do anything else I can do
01:17:04It was a deep cheese
01:17:08I don't know
01:17:09It was a light
01:17:10Okay
01:17:10I don't know
01:17:11I don't know
01:17:12I don't know
01:17:12No
01:17:13I don't know
01:17:17Our temperature is slightly raised
01:17:25But our heartbeat and our breathing are normal
01:17:28No contractions yet
01:17:30It doesn't seem to be working
01:17:32It's never taken this long
01:17:34Let's just give it a little more time
01:17:36We could lose Annie and the baby
01:17:40Do you have everything here that you need
01:17:44To do a cesarean delivery?
01:17:47How about taking a spoonful of that faith you're always talking about?
01:17:57I'm going to make some tea
01:17:58Do you like a cup?
01:18:00No, thank you
01:18:01Any news?
01:18:16Nothing yet
01:18:17I'm going to have a cup of tea
01:18:20You're doing fine Annie, just keep breathing
01:18:42Contractions
01:18:48Closer together
01:18:49We are going to introduce this baby boy to his new family
01:18:53It's alright, it's alright
01:18:55Keep breathing, good, good
01:18:58Congratulations Uncle Reedus
01:19:11Congratulations, Uncle Vito.
01:19:29She's so beautiful.
01:19:32I've delivered hundreds of babies, but I've never seen one this...
01:19:36perfect.
01:19:39And I'm not just saying that because she's my granddaughter.
01:19:42I thought she was a boy.
01:19:45She carried like a boy.
01:19:47We live and learn, don't we, Doc?
01:19:49We sure do.
01:19:50Thank you both for being here.
01:19:52There's no other place we'd rather be.
01:19:58Is it okay if I come in?
01:20:05Come meet your daughter, Peter.
01:20:11Can I hold her?
01:20:16Come sit.
01:20:17Come sick.
01:20:18Come.
01:20:29Come.
01:20:30Hey, you got that, fella?
01:20:49How about your present?
01:20:51Present?
01:20:53These are a few of my presents.
01:20:55When I asked you for a few books, I thought you'd give me one or two.
01:21:00The way you went through 20,000 links, I figured you'd use a few more.
01:21:03Oh, you think so?
01:21:07I should probably get going.
01:21:09Okay.
01:21:10Will I see you later?
01:21:13Sure, this is one fine day.
01:21:14Joshua, when you're finished swooning over my daughter, I could use a little help in here.
01:21:31I'm coming.
01:21:35Lord, thank you for the family that surrounds us and the love which envelops us.
01:21:41May we always strive to walk the way you like and be true missionaries of your word.
01:21:47Amen.
01:21:58Hey, are you all right?
01:22:00I'm fine.
01:22:01Just a little stuffy inside.
01:22:03I've gotten so used to you being at the house, it's going to be too quiet when we're gone.
01:22:06Well, it's been a week since my darling daughter was born.
01:22:10I think it's time we go home.
01:22:11I'm going to miss you so very much.
01:22:14And all the more reason for you to come visit us soon.
01:22:21What are you doing out of here?
01:22:23Oh, I was just getting some fresh air talking to Annie.
01:22:25You're going to miss her, aren't you?
01:22:28Well, we have her for one more night.
01:22:32Let's enjoy her what we can.
01:22:33Let's enjoy her what we can.
01:22:33Thank you very much, Lee.
01:22:44It was my pleasure, Pete.
01:22:45And Belinda.
01:22:47I can never thank you enough.
01:22:49Well, I wish I could take all the credit, but I had some expert help.
01:22:53This has been the happiest time of my life.
01:22:56I'm so glad that I got to share this with you.
01:22:59Me too.
01:23:00All aboard, folks.
01:23:01We're burning daylight.
01:23:03I think it's about that time.
01:23:05Will you hold baby Lindy for me?
01:23:07Of course.
01:23:09I thought you'd do.
01:23:19Bye.
01:23:20Bye.
01:23:20Bye.
01:23:20Bye.
01:23:31Well, my friend, we had ourselves an adventure.
01:23:47How do I think you're married?
01:23:49Well, you could start by finding me a husband.
01:23:50I learned a lot from you.
01:23:56And I from you.
01:23:57I may bring them into the world, but you keep them alive and kicking once they're here.
01:24:03Now, if you ever need a good midwife, you know where to find me.
01:24:07Oh, young man, I'm going to need a hand here.
01:24:25All right.
01:24:26Here we go.
01:24:27Wait a minute.
01:24:28One, two, three.
01:24:29Steady, steady, steady.
01:24:34Well, Commodore, are we sailing with the tide?
01:24:38I thought you said we were burning daylight.
01:24:40Yes, ma'am.
01:24:41Yeah, get out.
01:24:42Get out.
01:24:44Where are you and Mary whispering to each other?
01:25:01Oh, she's telling her I'd be needing a good midwife.
01:25:08You mean?
01:25:09Mm-hmm.
01:25:13Are you sure?
01:25:14I'm a doctor.
01:25:15I know a pregnant woman when I see one, especially when I am one.
01:25:22Hey.
01:25:24We're going to have a baby.
01:25:26Baby?
01:25:29We're going to have a baby.
01:25:32Lillian Owens, you were late enough for school as it is.
01:25:34Put those running legs to good use.
01:25:36Yes, ma'am.
01:25:39Joshua Coyle, don't just stand there and gawk.
01:25:42You've got a job to do.
01:25:42Yes, ma'am.
01:25:47I've got patients to attend to and baby plans to make.
01:25:50Now, wait up.
01:25:55Now, wait up a bit.
01:25:59How far along are you?
01:26:02Now, I'm serious.
01:26:03Well, we've got to start talking about names, really.
01:26:06I mean, I like leave for a boy.
01:26:08Oh, you think it's going to be a boy?
01:26:10Or, uh, you know, maybe Daphne for a girl.
01:26:12What do you think?
01:26:13Oh, that's very pretty.
01:26:14Come on, you want a little girl, don't you?
01:26:16What do you think?
01:26:17All right, I'll hold on.
01:26:18I'll get the door for you.
01:26:19Oh, wait.
01:26:20Oh, my goodness.
01:26:20Oh, my goodness.
01:26:21Oh, my goodness.
