00:00:00Almighty God, by whose infinite mercy we are born anew, unto Thee we commend Thy servant,
00:00:18Malcolm George, in the sure and certain hope of resurrection to eternal life.
00:00:28Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
00:00:41Sarah, say goodbye to your father.
00:00:46Sarah.
00:01:16Amen.
00:01:27Amen.
00:01:46That's a good girl.
00:01:57Amen.
00:02:08Sarah, your mother would like to talk to you.
00:02:38It'll be okay.
00:03:08He always loved you best. Don't look at me that way. You know exactly what I mean.
00:03:22You wish I were dead. Instead of your father, then you could have him all to yourself.
00:03:30Say it. Admit it. I wish you were dead. Say it.
00:03:38I wish you were dead. Malcolm, are you satisfied? Are you happy? Malcolm, I had to clear the air.
00:03:50The cause of it was all your fault. You're a worthless, worthless daughter. Malcolm. Malcolm, don't turn your back on me. Malcolm.
00:04:00Does she see him? I think so. Wow, that's so weird. Lucy, lay off. Alan, I'm just asking.
00:04:31Is she going back to the clinic? Yes, dear.
00:04:42Lucy, do you think your parents would mind if Sarah spent the night with you?
00:04:45She can stay at our house. Or I could stay here. That's very kind of you, Lucy, but
00:04:52I think Sarah would be better off with you, don't you?
00:04:54Sarah, you go and say goodbye to your mother now. It's all right. Hurry up. Dr. Bowman is on his way.
00:05:24Mother?
00:05:46Mother!
00:05:54Mother!
00:06:14Mother! No!
00:06:18Mother!
00:06:20Come back!
00:06:22Come back, Mother! No!
00:06:24Mother!
00:06:26Mother!
00:06:28Mother, no!
00:06:30Mother!
00:06:32No!
00:06:34Mother, no!
00:06:36Mother!
00:06:38No!
00:06:40Mother!
00:06:42No!
00:06:46Mother!
00:06:48Mother!
00:06:50No, Mother!
00:06:52No!
00:06:54Mother!
00:06:56Mother!
00:07:12I, Sarah York, take thee, Austin Hardy, to be my wedded husband.
00:07:18And I do promise before God and these witnesses to be thy loving and faithful wife,
00:07:26in plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live.
00:07:38I, Sarah York, take thee, Austin Hardy, to be my wedded husband.
00:07:44And I do promise before God and these witnesses to be thy loving and faithful wife,
00:07:50in plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live.
00:08:08With this ring, I thee wed, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
00:08:22I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss your bride.
00:08:38This is Aunt Caroline, Uncle Nettie, who's also my attorney.
00:09:04And they said it would never last.
00:09:06Welcome to Hush, Nettie. Welcome to the family, Austin. I can see why Sarah's been keeping you to herself.
00:09:11Well, thanks. Heard a lot of great things about you both.
00:09:14Hey, I hear we're going to be riding the train together. I just hope you can straighten her out.
00:09:20Nettie!
00:09:21I was referring to her portfolio.
00:09:26What do you think I was referring to?
00:09:28These are the Claiborne's. This is Nan and Biff. Congratulations.
00:09:32Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. Austin Hardy.
00:09:45I never thought I'd be this happy.
00:09:48Me too.
00:09:50I love you.
00:10:03Well, I just don't know what she sees in him.
00:10:06Apparently, what she didn't see in me.
00:10:09Just kidding, Doctor.
00:10:11I knew you were kidding.
00:10:14He is a major dreamboat.
00:10:16Well, I'm happy for him.
00:10:19Of course you are.
00:10:21I want you to meet my two oldest friends in the world. This is Lucy Milgrom.
00:10:25Hi.
00:10:26And Alan Davidian.
00:10:27Congratulations, Austin.
00:10:28Thanks, Alan. And Lucy, of course, I recognize.
00:10:30Since when do stockbrokers get time to watch soap operas?
00:10:33Whenever we get a chance to watch you.
00:10:36You better watch quick. They're writing me out in two weeks.
00:10:39Oh, Lucy, what a shame. I'm really sorry to hear that.
00:10:43Oh, don't worry about me. Death scenes are what an actor lives for.
00:10:46Where are you all going on your honeymoon?
00:10:48Virgin Gorda.
00:10:50And then home to the Pines.
00:10:52The Pines?
00:10:55Mr. Hardy, I see for you.
00:10:57Excuse me a sec.
00:11:01And whose idea was the Pines?
00:11:04Mine.
00:11:06And Austin's. He thought it sounded perfect.
00:11:08But what a nervous breakdown.
00:11:10Cute, Lucy. I'm not afraid to go back to that house.
00:11:14Oh, right. That's why you've been avoiding it for 15 years.
00:11:17Maybe that's true.
00:11:19But now that I have Austin, I can finally face what happened at the Pines.
00:11:23Does that sound hopelessly romantic?
00:11:25Now that you mention it.
00:11:27Sarah, come here and see this. You're not going to believe it.
00:11:30Excuse us.
00:11:34What?
00:11:38Believe it?
00:11:41Who are they from?
00:11:47There's no card.
00:11:49Well, I can see I'm in trouble. You've got secret admirers already.
00:11:53Don't be silly.
00:11:55They're beautiful.
00:11:57Dance with me.
00:11:59I'd love to.
00:12:11Well, I think it's perfectly tacky.
00:12:13You don't send lilies to a wedding, do you?
00:12:16No, you don't.
00:12:20Hey.
00:12:23Hey.
00:12:41Hello.
00:12:43Oh, Sarah. Welcome home.
00:12:49Oh, I hope you meet my husband, Austin Harding, Miss Thetford.
00:12:52Miss Thetford?
00:12:53Welcome to the Pines, Mr. Harding.
00:12:54It's good to be here. Let me get the bags.
00:12:56I'll take care of the luggage, Mr. Harding. Come, dear.
00:13:06Why don't you show Mr. Harding the rest of the house?
00:13:09That is, if you're not too tired.
00:13:11And then after that, you'll have supper in the dining room.
00:13:14How does that sound?
00:13:15Sounds lovely, Miss Thetford.
00:13:19She still thinks I'm 12 years old.
00:13:23This was my father's study.
00:13:26All the drawers have been cleaned out.
00:13:28I had a phone installed with your office.
00:13:32You're welcome.
00:13:34When was this taken?
00:13:36I don't know. I guess my father took that when I was around 11.
00:13:40You know, you might prefer the guest house for an office.
00:13:43It's a little more private.
00:13:44This is great.
00:13:45Yeah?
00:13:46Yeah.
00:13:48There's also a billiard room.
00:13:50There's also a billiard room.
00:13:52And a gazebo and a Swiss shower with about 20 different novels.
00:13:56And, let's see, a greenhouse.
00:13:59Most people think I was raised there.
00:14:01And what else?
00:14:02Upstairs.
00:14:04Upstairs. We have three bedrooms to choose from.
00:14:11Mr. Hardy.
00:14:13Sarah.
00:14:15Supper is ready.
00:14:21What's wrong?
00:14:23Nothing.
00:14:24Come on.
00:14:26What are you thinking?
00:14:31How happy I am.
00:14:35And that makes you sad?
00:14:37Yes.
00:14:41I'm sorry.
00:14:43I'm sorry.
00:14:45I'm sorry.
00:14:47I'm sorry.
00:14:50What?
00:14:54I guess I'm afraid I'm going to lose you.
00:15:00Like you lost your folks.
00:15:10You're not going to lose me.
00:15:13Ever.
00:15:19Ever.
00:15:49Ever.
00:16:19Wow.
00:16:49Wow.
00:17:19Wow.
00:17:49Wow.
00:18:19Wow.
00:18:50Hey.
00:18:52God, you scared me.
00:18:54What are you doing out here?
00:18:56I thought I heard somebody.
00:18:58Why didn't you wake me up?
00:19:00I don't know.
00:19:04There's nobody out here.
00:19:06Come on. Let's go inside.
00:19:08No.
00:19:10No.
00:19:12No.
00:19:14No.
00:19:16No.
00:19:18Come on. Let's go in.
00:19:32Sarah?
00:19:37What's the matter?
00:19:39Is there something wrong?
00:19:41Nothing.
00:19:43I just must have been dreaming.
00:19:45It's over now.
00:19:47Are you upset?
00:19:49Can I get you a glass of warm milk?
00:19:51No, thank you. I don't want any milk.
00:19:53But, dear, it's a natural sedative.
00:19:55Sarah doesn't need a sedative, Miss Thetford.
00:19:58How about closing up down here?
00:20:00Yes, Mr. Hardy.
00:20:03Good night.
00:20:05Good night, Mr. Hardy.
00:20:07Good night, Sarah.
00:20:17Good night.
00:20:31I'll miss you, too.
00:20:33I'm considering.
00:20:47Mm-hmm.
00:20:53I love you.
00:20:55Oh, you better go, or I really will make you stay.
00:21:06Bye.
00:21:17Bye.
00:21:48Bye.
00:22:02Sarah, dear, let me help you with those.
00:22:05No, don't be silly. I've got it.
00:22:07Look, why don't you take the afternoon off?
00:22:09I'll take care of dinner.
00:22:11Oh, I see. Mr. Hardy wants it this way.
00:22:14I want it this way.
00:22:36Miss Thetford!
00:22:47Miss Thetford!
00:23:01Who's there?
00:23:17Who's there?
00:23:48Who's there?
00:23:56Mother?
00:24:17Who's there?
00:24:43Can I help you, Mrs. Hardy?
00:24:45What's the matter?
00:24:47Since when have we grown lilies?
00:24:49We have always grown lilies.
00:24:52Darling, don't you remember?
00:24:54They were your mother's favorite flower.
00:25:02Hello.
00:25:03Hi.
00:25:04Who is this?
00:25:06My, how quickly they forget.
00:25:08Austin.
00:25:10I'm sorry. I'm so glad it's you.
00:25:14Why? Is something wrong?
00:25:16No. No, everything's fine.
00:25:19Well, I just wanted to call and tell you how much I loved you.
00:25:25Tell me again.
00:25:27I love you.
00:25:30I love you, too.
00:25:34Bye.
00:25:36Goodbye.
00:25:44Give sorrow words.
00:25:46The grief that does not speak whispers the o'erfront heart and bids it break.
00:25:50And you actually felt it. I mean, you held that glass in your hot little hand.
00:25:54I think I felt it, you think.
00:25:56I definitely felt it, yes. I picked it up.
00:26:00Well, what does Austin say?
00:26:03I haven't told him.
00:26:05Why? Why not?
00:26:07Lucy, I don't know if you know this, but when Mother drowned, they never actually found her body.
00:26:12Sarah, she is buried in that churchyard right next to your father.
00:26:15They only put up a headstone.
00:26:17What exactly are you saying? I mean, are we implying here that maybe she's still alive?
00:26:22I don't know what I'm saying.
00:26:24I'm just afraid, Lucy. I'm afraid it'll ruin things with Austin.
00:26:30Well, if you're really afraid to talk about it to Austin,
00:26:35maybe you should go see Alan.
00:26:38Alan?
00:26:39Yeah.
00:26:40Why?
00:26:41He knows you. He knew your mother. They have all her records over there.
00:26:44He could help.
00:26:47Sarah, look at me.
00:26:50You are not your mother, okay? You're not.
00:26:53But you can't deny the impact that her illness had on you.
00:26:58Come on. Promise me you'll go see Alan.
00:27:06I walk into the greenhouse, I see the lilies.
00:27:09I saw them at the wedding. They were Mother's favorite flower.
00:27:15I'm no expert on the afterlife, but I doubt if they have a florist.
00:27:22Couldn't someone else have sent the flowers?
00:27:24Like who?
00:27:25I don't know. Who do you think might have sent them?
00:27:28I don't know.
00:27:30Look, Sarah, I'm very fond of you as a friend.
00:27:35Maybe I should find you another psychiatrist.
00:27:37One that would be easier for you to talk to.
00:27:39I don't want another psychiatrist.
00:27:42I can't tell these things to a stranger.
00:27:45You don't seem to be able to tell them to your husband either.
00:27:50Why don't we get some air?
00:27:56Why haven't you told Austin?
00:27:59Oh, sure. I forgot to mention, Austin,
00:28:01that my mother went crazy and committed suicide,
00:28:03and your wife probably will too.
00:28:15Do you remember the last thing you said to your mother?
00:28:21I wish you were dead.
00:28:23She made you say that.
00:28:26Right?
00:28:28Right.
00:28:30Look, I would be amazed if you didn't feel some guilt.
00:28:34But to see the kinds of things you say you've seen,
00:28:37you'd have to be hallucinating.
00:28:39I'm sorry, you just don't strike me that way at all.
00:28:42I did see them.
00:28:45Well, there must be some reasonable explanation.
00:28:49We'll have to talk about it some more.
00:28:51I have to go.
00:28:53I can see you tomorrow at this time.
00:28:55Oh, I'd really like that.
00:28:58Bye, Alan.
00:29:01Bye.
00:29:28Bye.
00:29:37Sarah, where have you been?
00:29:39It's almost five o'clock. I've been worried.
00:29:41I mean, you told me not to fix dinner.
00:29:43I'm sorry.
00:29:45I was in the city with Lucy. She asked me to run some lines.
00:29:48Well, I told Mr. Hardy you'd gone shopping.
00:29:51Why?
00:29:53Well, he seemed concerned, and I assumed you'd gone shopping.
00:29:56What are you suggesting, Miss Thetford?
00:29:59I'm not suggesting anything.
00:30:05Sarah, where are you going?
00:30:07I'm going upstairs.
00:30:09I'm going to take a shower. I'm going to change my clothes.
00:30:11I'm coming down to fix dinner, okay?
00:30:13Now you have my itinerary.
00:30:27Sarah.
00:30:31Sarah.
00:30:34You've been a very bad girl.
00:30:56Sarah.
00:31:27Sarah.
00:31:41Sarah.
00:31:42Austin, thank God.
00:31:44What's wrong?
00:31:45Nothing. I just had a little run-in with Miss Thetford.
00:31:48She's cross-examining me today about why I was late getting home.
00:31:51Hey, you don't have to answer to her or anybody else.
00:31:54You want me to talk to her?
00:31:55No, it's all right. I just overreacted.
00:32:00Maybe these will help.
00:32:06They're beautiful.
00:32:22What exactly did the voice say?
00:32:25You've been a bad girl, and I was.
00:32:28I lied about coming here.
00:32:30I snapped at Miss Thetford.
00:32:32Why did you snap at her?
00:32:34She was questioning me like I was a criminal.
00:32:37She treats me like a child. She's about to drive me up a wall.
00:32:40Then fire her if she's making you so uncomfortable.
00:32:43I don't know. She's been with us for all those years. I feel terrible.
00:32:47Sarah.
00:32:49The point of all this is for you to feel good about yourself.
00:32:53To feel in control of things.
00:32:57Sorry.
00:32:59Why don't we stop dwelling on your weaknesses and talk about your strengths?
00:33:04My strengths?
00:33:06What are they? You tell me.
00:33:08No, you tell me.
00:33:10You do sound like a shrink.
00:33:13Okay, I'm a great dancer.
00:33:15I'm a really good cook.
00:33:17I'm rich.
00:33:19Fairly attractive.
00:33:21Fairly?
00:33:23I would say extremely.
00:33:25Is that a professional observation?
00:33:32Is my time up yet?
00:33:34No, we still have a few more minutes.
00:33:37Look, I'll have a talk with Miss Thetford.
00:33:40You're right, I should not let her intimidate me.
00:33:43I have to go because I have to get home before Austin.
00:33:46I'll see you next week?
00:33:48Take care of yourself.
00:33:50I'll be thinking about you.
00:33:54Goodbye, Alan.
00:33:58Be well.
00:34:07Is my husband home yet?
00:34:09No, Mrs. Heidi, he hasn't come in yet.
00:34:11Great, thank you.
00:34:37Miss Thetford?
00:34:39Miss Thetford's home.
00:34:43Miss Thetford?
00:34:45Miss Thetford's out back, ma'am.
00:34:47Would you tell her I'd like to see her, please?
00:34:49Yes, ma'am. I'll let her know.
00:34:54Bye.
00:35:02Hello, Mrs. Thetford.
00:35:04No, no, no.
00:35:34No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:36:04Sarah, it's me, dear.
00:36:24You wanted to speak to me.
00:36:25Sarah?
00:36:26Sarah?
00:36:27Now just look straight ahead, don't look at me.
00:36:56Follow my finger.
00:37:15Do you feel that?
00:37:22Uh-huh.
00:37:24That? Yeah.
00:37:31We'll need your blood and urine and that'll do it.
00:37:34Dr. Davidian will call you as soon as he knows the results.
00:37:51Hello?
00:37:58Hello, Sarah.
00:37:59Who is this?
00:38:01Who is this? It's me.
00:38:04You were right. They were wrong.
00:38:07I'm back.
00:38:09And I want my house back.
00:38:12Your father didn't belong to you and neither does the Pines.
00:38:16Hello?
00:38:18Sarah? Sarah?
00:38:21Are you listening?
00:38:23Yes, I'm listening.
00:38:26But I don't think you understand.
00:38:30I will do anything to get it back.
00:38:49What's the matter, Miss Thetford? Did I interrupt something?
00:38:53No, dear. I was just making a call to my sister.
00:38:58A call to your sister? Is that why you hung up so quickly?
00:39:02Well, it was long distance. My sister lives in Grand Rapids.
00:39:06I meant to ask your permission, but...
00:39:09But?
00:39:11I didn't want to disturb you. You've been so touchy lately.
00:39:16I wonder why.
00:39:18This is a month's wages. I want you out of here this afternoon.
00:39:21What are you talking about? I was only making a call.
00:39:26What is it?
00:39:28Do you really think this house belonged to you?
00:39:32Do you know how many years I've been with your family?
00:39:37Too many.
00:39:42Sarah, I'm your friend.
00:40:11Hello?
00:40:26Sarah? It's Alan.
00:40:28Alan, hi.
00:40:30I hope this is good news.
00:40:33It wasn't your imagination, the dizzy spell.
00:40:36You're pregnant.
00:40:38Pregnant?
00:40:41Well, I'll let you go. I've got a patient.
00:40:44I'm happy for you, Sarah.
00:40:46We'll see each other next week, okay?
00:40:48Okay. Thanks, Alan.
00:40:51Bye-bye.
00:40:52Goodbye.
00:41:06Austin Hardy, please.
00:41:20Oh, boy.
00:41:22I think we have to celebrate, throw a party, huh?
00:41:24Oh, I'd love that.
00:41:25We can invite Aunt Caroline, Uncle Nutty, and the Claiborne's.
00:41:27It'll make your favorite roast.
00:41:29Great.
00:41:32Let Miss Thetford help you.
00:41:34I fired her today.
00:41:35Why?
00:41:36I let her go.
00:41:37She's always questioning me,
00:41:39wanting to know where I was and where I was going.
00:41:41I don't know, I just...
00:41:43Look, whatever, I'm sure you have good reason, huh?
00:41:46What's important is, we're going to be a family.
00:41:51Yeah!
00:41:54Canst thou not minister to a mind disease?
00:41:58Flock from the memory a rooted sorrow?
00:42:01This is so exciting.
00:42:02Austin must be so thrilled.
00:42:04Oh, he is.
00:42:05Oh, and I have the most divine obstitution for you.
00:42:08Who?
00:42:09Well, he's 35 years old, he's handsome, his name is Burton McMahon.
00:42:13Ooh, is he married or divorced?
00:42:15What do you care, honey? I found him, I get to keep him.
00:42:17No, really, he delivered my cousin's baby last month.
00:42:19He is great.
00:42:20In fact, I'll call him for you.
00:42:22Uh, if you promise to invite him to that party you're having,
00:42:26which is when?
00:42:27The 16th.
00:42:28The 16th.
00:42:29Oh, great, of course. I think I have to rehearse that night.
00:42:31But maybe I can come by afterwards, okay?
00:42:33Okay, that'd be great.
00:42:34Lucy, do you want to favor us with your presents?
00:42:36Yes, darling.
00:42:37I love you, I am so happy for you.
00:42:39I told you everything was going to work out fine.
00:42:41Thanks, I'll see you soon, okay?
00:42:43Okay, bye.
00:42:44Bye.
00:42:46Did you and Lucy have a good time today?
00:42:48Yeah, I watched you rehearse.
00:42:52Guess I'll do those later.
00:42:59By the way, who do we know in Grand Rapids?
00:43:01Where?
00:43:03Grand Rapids, here on the phone bill.
00:43:05I don't know, why?
00:43:08Must have been Miss Thetford, huh?
00:43:11That's right, this was the day you fired her, remember?
00:43:17What's wrong?
00:43:19Nothing.
00:43:21I'm fine.
00:43:29Grand Rapids, New York
00:43:35Karen for a girl, Jamie if it's a boy, but Sarah has the last word.
00:43:39I'm partial to the kings of England.
00:43:42George, James, Henry, Arthur.
00:43:45I don't know, Artie Hardy?
00:43:48Or Andrew.
00:43:49There you go, Andy Hardy.
00:43:51Or how about Haylen?
00:43:52What do you think, Dr. McBad?
00:43:54Haylen?
00:43:55Haylen Hottie.
00:43:57I think this man needs another drink.
00:43:59So, are you enjoying your pregnancy?
00:44:01Absolutely.
00:44:03No anxieties?
00:44:05No.
00:44:07Why, do you prefer me completely neurotic?
00:44:09Of course not.
00:44:11Are you jealous?
00:44:13Of what?
00:44:14Of Austin.
00:44:16Austin?
00:44:18He's been very supportive and wonderful lately.
00:44:21Oh, and I haven't?
00:44:23I'm sorry.
00:44:25You've been right.
00:44:27You've been right about everything.
00:44:29Have I?
00:44:30Yes, you have.
00:44:31You're right about Miss Thedford.
00:44:33About the dizzy spills.
00:44:35You've helped me realize how much I have to give to Austin and to the baby.
00:44:40We have to stop.
00:44:42Stop what?
00:44:43Looking at each other.
00:44:44Sarah, I'm your doctor.
00:44:46I have to look at you.
00:44:48Hey, there you are.
00:44:51I better check the roast.
00:44:54Like mother, like daughter.
00:44:56Dorothy always forgot at least one dish.
00:44:58Excuse me a minute.
00:45:03I'm so glad they're not going to wait to have children.
00:45:05I hate all those 40-year-olds with toddlers.
00:45:08Did she look all right to you?
00:45:10Why is she worried about the food?
00:45:13What happened to Miss Thedford?
00:45:16I told you, she fired her.
00:45:18Why on earth would she do that?
00:45:24Okay.
00:45:29The party's gonna be great.
00:45:31Lead me out?
00:45:33I can't find the carving knife.
00:45:35I think the roast is done.
00:45:38Hey, are you okay?
00:45:41Yes, I'm fine.
00:45:44You know you're going to be the best mother in the world.
00:45:47You know that, don't you?
00:45:50What's the matter?
00:45:52Somebody's out there.
00:45:58I don't see anyone.
00:46:00I'll get that.
00:46:19I'll get it.
00:46:45Oh, Caroline.
00:46:48Hi.
00:46:49Biff and Ed, I don't know if you know Bert McMahon.
00:46:51Dr. McMahon is Sarah's obstetrician.
00:46:53It's kind of damp out there.
00:46:55Nice to meet you. It's freezing.
00:46:57Biff, did you come around the back way?
00:46:59No, why?
00:47:01Sarah thought she saw something.
00:47:03Where is Sarah?
00:47:04She's in the kitchen. Let me get her.
00:47:06Sarah.
00:47:36Oh, God.
00:48:07Oh, God.
00:48:21Have you seen Sarah? I can't find her.
00:48:23No, I haven't seen her anywhere.
00:48:29Oh, my God.
00:48:32Sarah?
00:48:34Sarah?
00:48:38Sarah?
00:49:02I'm lost.
00:49:06I'm right here.
00:49:08Don't move. Just lie still.
00:49:13How long have I been asleep?
00:49:16Quite a while.
00:49:19You're out of danger now.
00:49:22You're going to be okay.
00:49:25And the baby's all right?
00:49:27And the baby's all right?
00:49:34He went into shock.
00:49:37There was a lot of bleeding and loss of oxygen.
00:49:43The baby...
00:49:50The baby would have been brain damaged.
00:49:57I love you.
00:50:27I love you.
00:50:50Sarah.
00:50:53Talk to me.
00:50:57I don't think I feel what you're feeling.
00:50:59It was my baby, too.
00:51:04You're right to be angry.
00:51:06Honey, I'm not angry. I just...
00:51:09I want to help you.
00:51:15When I was 12, my mother drowned herself.
00:51:19I watched her do it.
00:51:23Maybe I wanted her to die.
00:51:25Maybe I'm paying for it now.
00:51:30But whatever's happening to me, I can't stand having you witness it.
00:51:37What are you talking about? I'm your husband.
00:51:41I want a divorce.
00:51:45That's crazy talk.
00:51:47You're depressed.
00:51:49If it's the baby, we can have another one. We can work this thing out.
00:51:52I'm sure we can work out a fair settlement,
00:51:54considering everything you've had to put up with.
00:51:56Sarah, you're my wife. I love you. I'm not going to abandon you.
00:52:01Then it's up to me.
00:52:22I love you.
00:52:52I love you.
00:53:13She's not doing very well, and neither am I.
00:53:17She wants a divorce.
00:53:19Until she's asleep, then I'll meet you.
00:53:49Honey...
00:53:51I really think you should get some sleep.
00:53:53I love you.
00:54:17Austin?
00:54:20Can I come in?
00:54:22Sure, come on in.
00:54:24Thanks.
00:54:26Sarah's upstairs in the bedroom.
00:54:28Okay, if I go up?
00:54:30Yeah, sure.
00:54:46Sarah?
00:54:48How are you doing?
00:54:53Sarah, talk to me.
00:55:13How's she doing?
00:55:15She just went to bed.
00:55:18Did she take her medication?
00:55:20Mm-hmm, just now.
00:55:24Did she talk to you at all?
00:55:26Just a little.
00:55:28What did she say?
00:55:32She told me she wants a divorce.
00:55:42I think she might give me the house.
00:55:45And would you settle for that?
00:55:47Maybe.
00:55:49Well, I won't. I won't at all.
00:55:58We're gonna have it all.
00:56:05She is right on the edge, you know.
00:56:08It's her mother in spades.
00:56:10The voices, the vision.
00:56:13The voices, the visions.
00:56:17And the collapse.
00:56:19Now the baby.
00:56:21I mean, they're not gonna be at all surprised when she kills herself.
00:56:26And all we have to do is run a bath.
00:56:29She might wake up.
00:56:32No, she won't.
00:56:34I made her take three sleeping pills.
00:56:44Come on.
00:56:59Your turn.
00:57:13Come on.
00:57:36Come on, let's do it.
00:57:43Come on.
00:57:53Austin?
00:57:55What?
00:57:56She's not here.
00:58:03Dear Austin, what I'm about to do can only cause you more pain,
00:58:07but I have to put an end to mine.
00:58:09Forgive me, Sarah.
00:58:13I can't believe it. She beat us to it.
00:58:15Austin, her pill bottle is gone.
00:58:18And we got it all.
00:58:20The house, the estate.
00:58:23And all that money.
00:58:25Now, this is what I've wanted all my life.
00:58:29All that money and you to share it with.
00:58:43Come on.
00:59:13Come on.
00:59:24Who is it?
00:59:25Mr. Hardy, it's the police.
00:59:29Just a minute.
00:59:38Evening, sir. I'm Lieutenant Shingler.
00:59:41Is your wife at home, Mr. Hardy?
00:59:44Yes, but she's in bed asleep.
00:59:46Sir, are you sure?
00:59:48Of course I'm sure. Why?
00:59:52What happened?
00:59:57There was an empty vial of pills in her coat pocket with her name on it.
01:00:01She must have slipped out while you were sleeping.
01:00:04It's just like her mother.
01:00:06Yes, sir. I remember that night she drowned.
01:00:09Oh, God.
01:00:30I know what some people said about Sarah.
01:00:34They said she was too good for this world.
01:00:37I don't believe that. Not for a second.
01:00:41That makes her sound weak.
01:00:44And Sarah was anything but weak.
01:00:47Kind, gentle, sensitive.
01:00:52Those are blessings, not weaknesses.
01:00:57We all knew what kind of a mother she was going to be.
01:01:02The best any woman could be.
01:01:06But Sarah didn't know.
01:01:09And that, more than anything, was Sarah's tragedy.
01:01:14Now, if there's anything you need, don't hesitate to call us.
01:01:18Thank you. Thank you both.
01:01:24I appreciate it.
01:01:37Mr. Hardy, it's such a terrible loss.
01:01:42Yes, Miss Thetford, it is.
01:01:46I just can't believe, after all those years,
01:01:50that Sarah wouldn't mention me in her will.
01:01:55Sarah didn't mention you, Miss Thetford, because she didn't leave a will.
01:02:01Well, if I knew I was going to die,
01:02:04I would certainly make provisions.
01:02:08Sarah didn't know she was going to die.
01:02:14I'm not so sure.
01:02:17Well, I am.
01:02:22But perhaps it was an oversight on Sarah's part not to have left a will.
01:02:27Would $10,000 seem fair compensation?
01:02:34It would certainly help.
01:02:37I'll be in touch.
01:02:40Promise that, huh?
01:03:27Austin.
01:03:30Austin.
01:03:33Austin.
01:03:36Austin, you've been a very bad boy.
01:03:46Well, what do you think?
01:03:50I think it's a good idea.
01:03:53Well, what are we going to tell people?
01:03:57Lucy, not now.
01:04:01We've got a problem.
01:04:02What problem? We don't have any problems.
01:04:04Miss Thetford, she can't believe Sarah wouldn't leave her any money.
01:04:07Oh, Austin, don't be silly. She's just upset.
01:04:10I mean, after all, she is the one who slaved away for the Yorks all those years.
01:04:13She's just in shock that Sarah fired her.
01:04:16Well, I told her it was an oversight on Sarah's part.
01:04:18I'm giving her $10,000.
01:04:20I'm giving her $10,000.
01:04:22Paul, you're not going to pay her.
01:04:24If it gets her off our backs, why not? There's plenty.
01:04:26Well, she doesn't have a clue. Come on.
01:04:28She's just taking her best shot. You know you're encouraging her.
01:04:31Luce, I don't want trouble.
01:04:34What could she do? What could she possibly know?
01:04:39Come on, relax.
01:04:44Maybe you're right.
01:04:47You know what I'd do for $10,000?
01:04:51No. What would you do?
01:04:54Anything you want.
01:05:04Bring your checkbook.
01:05:16Come on.
01:05:46Come on.
01:06:16Come on.
01:06:46Come on.
01:07:16Come on.
01:07:43Austin?
01:07:45What are you doing out here?
01:07:49Somebody was in the house.
01:07:53You see? I told you.
01:07:55What?
01:07:56Her picture. It's gone. Someone was in here.
01:07:58Austin.
01:08:16Hello?
01:08:18Hello. Mr. Hardy?
01:08:21Who is this?
01:08:23This is Emily Thetford.
01:08:25You assured me you were going to get in touch. I haven't heard from you.
01:08:29Miss Thetford, I told you you'd be taken care of.
01:08:32Do I get my money or do I get a lawyer?
01:08:35Of course you get your money. What's the problem?
01:08:39All I want is my money, Mr. Hardy.
01:08:42I'm sure...
01:08:45you don't want any more questions raised about Sarah.
01:08:50I don't know what you're implying, Miss Thetford.
01:08:53Maybe you had better get a lawyer.
01:08:57Something scared that girl to death.
01:09:00And I know it wasn't me.
01:09:03So why don't we just stop kidding each other and get down to business?
01:09:08I told you you'd be taken care of.
01:09:11I told you you'd get your $10,000.
01:09:17Ten?
01:09:19I must have left out a zero.
01:09:22$100,000, Mr. Hardy.
01:09:25Tonight.
01:09:30Did you hear me?
01:09:34I heard you.
01:09:42Lucy!
01:09:45Lucy!
01:09:51What's the matter?
01:09:53Thetford's on to us. I'll have to pay her off.
01:09:55Wait a minute. Now calm down.
01:09:57Don't tell me to calm down. She knows something.
01:09:59What? What exactly did she say?
01:10:01She practically accused me of killing Sarah.
01:10:04It had to be her.
01:10:06What? What are you talking about?
01:10:08In the house last night.
01:10:10Austin, you're being ridiculous.
01:10:12You think I'm imagining things?
01:10:14I think you're acting like Sarah.
01:10:16You hear that?
01:10:18What?
01:10:21That.
01:10:23Austin, I don't hear a thing.
01:10:30Austin, don't. Now...
01:10:32Austin?
01:10:40Austin?
01:10:50Austin? What is it?
01:11:11What the hell are you doing here?
01:11:13Alan.
01:11:15I'm sorry. I didn't mean to frighten you.
01:11:17I tried the front door and there was nobody there.
01:11:21So I thought I heard someone out here.
01:11:23So what are you doing snooping around here?
01:11:26Just curiosity.
01:11:29We used to play hide-and-seek here.
01:11:31Remember, Luce?
01:11:33That was a long time ago, Alan.
01:11:35I'm sorry.
01:11:37Remember, Luce?
01:11:38That was a long time ago, Alan.
01:11:41My mistake.
01:11:44This is where Sarah came, isn't it?
01:11:47The night she collapsed.
01:11:49So?
01:11:51I'm just wondering what happened.
01:11:54You used to play dress-up too, didn't you, Luce?
01:11:57Always a good little actress.
01:12:00You see, I never thought Sarah was hallucinating.
01:12:03But then, I never thought she was suicidal either.
01:12:07Maybe she just had the wrong doctor.
01:12:10Or the wrong husband.
01:12:14You'd better leave.
01:12:16Now.
01:12:24Goodbye, Luce.
01:12:33Goodbye, Sarah.
01:13:03Goodbye, Sarah.
01:13:22Austin.
01:13:24He can't prove anything, okay?
01:13:27There's nothing to prove.
01:13:30Sarah killed herself.
01:13:34Austin, let's just go to bed.
01:13:36Go ahead. I'll be right there.
01:13:39I'm fine. Go ahead.
01:14:00Go ahead.
01:14:18Oh, God.
01:14:20Oh.
01:14:22Oh.
01:14:27Oh.
01:14:30What happened?
01:14:32The night I came home from the hospital, I heard Austin on the phone.
01:14:35And then Luce shows up at the house.
01:14:37It's all been about my money, Austin, the marriage, Luce, everything.
01:14:42Why didn't you call me right away? Why did you wait so long to come here?
01:14:45I really thought I was going crazy.
01:14:47Even after I ran away, I didn't care what happened.
01:14:50Then I went back to the house.
01:14:52Don't you understand the danger?
01:14:54I was looking for something. Anything I could use against them.
01:14:57You've got to go to the police with this.
01:14:59What can I tell the police? I have no evidence.
01:15:01If anybody looks guilty, it's me.
01:15:04I'm the one who's supposed to be dead, and suddenly I'm alive.
01:15:07You know the wildest thing?
01:15:11Austin is still my husband.
01:15:30I love you.
01:15:33How now, you secret black and midnight hag.
01:15:36What is it you do?
01:15:38A deed without a name.
01:15:43I come to you by that which you profess.
01:15:46However you come to know it, answer me.
01:15:48What if Sarah says something to him?
01:15:50Like what? I mean, what is she going to say? I think I'm hearing things.
01:15:53I'm telling you she said something. Why else would he show up there?
01:15:55What if he comes back?
01:15:57Austin, Sarah is dead. There is nothing to find. He can't prove anything.
01:16:01You can go to the police. With what?
01:16:03Don't be stupid. There's checks, there's phone records, you name it.
01:16:06Hey, we're rehearsing here.
01:16:09Austin, I want you to go back to the house.
01:16:12Go through all your files. You find anything incriminating, burn it.
01:16:16You understand?
01:16:18That woman, she's in on this too.
01:16:20I'll go there first.
01:16:22Austin, wait a minute.
01:16:24I know exactly what I have to do.
01:16:54I know exactly what I have to do.
01:17:24I know exactly what I have to do.
01:17:54I know exactly what I have to do.
01:18:24Hello.
01:18:25Alan?
01:18:26Where are you?
01:18:27I'm at the house.
01:18:28I told you to stay here.
01:18:30Alan, please listen to me. I found...
01:18:32I found two checks made out to Burton MacMahon.
01:18:36Oh, Alan.
01:18:37Sarah. Sarah.
01:18:39The form, the hospital form, says that it was an abortion.
01:18:45Oh, Alan.
01:18:48My baby.
01:18:51They killed my baby.
01:18:53My God.
01:18:55Sarah, you've got to get out of that house. Now.
01:19:04Sarah. Sarah!
01:19:23All right.
01:19:53All right.
01:20:23All right.
01:20:53All right.
01:21:23All right.
01:21:53All right.
01:21:55All right.
01:22:19Blue Mercedes. License plate number one.
01:22:22A-B-H-1.
01:22:24His name is Austin Hardy.
01:22:26Brown hair, six feet, 170 pounds.
01:22:29Wearing blue jeans and a navy blue cashmere sweater.
01:22:33He's carrying a .38 caliber revolver.
01:22:35Approach with extreme caution.
01:22:38Where will you be today, Mrs. Hardy?
01:22:40At the homey clinic.
01:22:42Does your husband know about this place?
01:22:44Yes.
01:22:45Well, I'll arrange to have some men posted there, then.
01:22:47Lieutenant, can I see you for a second?
01:22:48Ah, excuse me.
01:22:55No other car involved? No other tire tracks?
01:22:59Just these skid-more skid-strips.
01:23:01Looks like he stopped over there, thought it over, and just went for the rail.
01:23:15We're going to need her to identify the body.
01:23:19If I can identify the body, then she's been through enough.
01:23:22Sure.
01:23:23Danny, do you want to take Mrs. Hardy to her house?
01:23:28This won't take long. I'll be there as soon as I can.
01:23:41Holy shit!
01:23:43There's a homicide right over here!
01:23:52What?
01:24:10We're all through here, Mrs. Hardy. Thanks a lot.
01:24:12Thanks.
01:24:22Let's go.
01:24:52Let's go.
01:25:23...response to Battalion 7 and Battalion 9.
01:25:26...response to Battalion 7 and Battalion 9.
01:25:49Alan? I'm up here!
01:25:56You know, Doctor, I think this is very unorthodox.
01:26:26Oh, man.
