00:01:06 Don't play that, Applejack.
00:01:08 [Music]
00:01:11 I'm leaving.
00:01:13 Julie.
00:01:15 Will you go down to the station and get me a ticket on the 11 o'clock?
00:01:19 And cash that check for me.
00:01:21 Smith will do it for you.
00:01:23 And I'd like you to drive me to the train.
00:01:25 Julie, you'd better think this over.
00:01:27 I have been thinking it over, Applejack.
00:01:29 I've been thinking about it for days.
00:01:31 You and Roger have been married a long time.
00:01:34 You don't need each other anymore.
00:01:36 Well, that happens to two people.
00:01:38 Nothing left.

00:03:37 [Music]
00:03:47 [Music]
00:03:59 What can I do for you?
00:04:01 Oh, the record department.
00:04:03 They're right here.
00:04:05 [Music]
00:04:12 How about that one up there, that book?
00:04:14 Beethoven?
00:04:15 Which one is it?
00:04:17 Number seven.
00:04:19 Keep it down.
00:04:26 Needles?
00:04:30 No, no.
00:04:32 Who plays the sheet music here?
00:04:34 I do.
00:04:35 Oh, you do that?
00:04:36 Uh-huh.
00:04:38 Would you mind playing that for me, please?
00:04:40 Certainly, I'll be glad to.
00:04:42 [Music]
00:05:00 New tune, isn't it?
00:05:02 I beg your pardon?
00:05:06 It's a new tune.
00:05:10 I didn't hear you.
00:05:11 Yes, it just came in.
00:05:13 It would be nice to dance to.
00:05:18 It is.
00:05:20 What's on the other side?
00:05:22 Well, it's another new one.
00:05:24 Would you mind playing it for me?
00:05:27 No.
00:05:28 This way.
00:05:30 [Music]
00:05:41 [Singing]
00:06:10 Good night.
00:06:11 Night.
00:06:12 Buy a flower, mister.
00:06:16 [Whistle]
00:06:21 I'm going this way, honest.
00:06:27 I'm going this way too, honest.
00:06:29 [Music]
00:06:45 What's the matter?
00:06:46 Nothing.
00:06:47 I live here, that's all.
00:06:49 Oh.
00:06:50 Night.
00:06:53 Good night.
00:06:54 Oh, uh...
00:06:58 [Music]
00:07:00 Do you mind if I ask you a personal question?
00:07:03 I guess not.
00:07:04 Uh...
00:07:06 Have you got a Victrola inside?
00:07:08 Why, yes, of course.
00:07:11 Would you let me hear this one?
00:07:13 Otherwise I'll have to take it home and imagine how it sounds.
00:07:16 Don't you have a machine at home?
00:07:18 No.
00:07:19 Well, why on earth did you buy a 27?
00:07:24 [Music]
00:07:31 Ha, ha, ha.
00:07:33 [Music]
00:07:41 [Singing]
00:08:06 [Music]
00:08:28 [Whistle]
00:08:42 [Music]
00:08:53 What are you thinking about?
00:08:55 That's our song they're playing.
00:08:58 At least that's what you said when we were dancing.
00:09:02 What are you thinking about?
00:09:05 Oh, just wishing.
00:09:08 Wishing I could be with you every day like this.
00:09:11 I mean, uh, I wish every day could be a holiday like this.
00:09:16 I mean, never have to go back home, never have to go back to work.
00:09:19 I think, wouldn't I?
00:09:22 [Music]
00:09:35 What's it say?
00:09:36 Nothing, it's silly.
00:09:38 Come on.
00:09:39 Oh, no, really, it's silly.
00:09:41 Oh, those things with all the bungs have never come true.
00:09:50 [Cough]
00:09:51 [Music]
00:10:02 Oh, be there.
00:10:04 You don't like kids very much, do you?
00:10:08 Oh, I like them all right, except when they're pests.
00:10:11 What's it say?
00:10:17 Hmm?
00:10:18 Ha, ha, come on.
00:10:19 Oh, nothing, nothing.
00:10:20 Come on, tell me.
00:10:22 Come on.
00:10:28 Unromantic.
00:10:36 Boo!
00:10:39 I thought you said we were going to have the place to ourselves.
00:10:43 Oh, on just the ocean, the beach, I couldn't get.
00:10:47 Hey, you're doing all right.
00:10:49 Two or three more lessons, you'll be able to swim.
00:10:51 You can almost float now.
00:10:53 When your arms are holding me up.
00:10:55 Well, when you're with me, you're safe.
00:10:57 I don't know whether it's safe or not.
00:11:09 I don't know if I do either.
00:11:16 It must be getting late.
00:11:17 Let's get dressed.
00:11:19 Calm down, there's plenty of time.
00:11:20 I'm thinking about that last train home.
00:11:22 Come on, Roger, get dressed.
00:11:26 All right.
00:11:28 Get banged!
00:11:43 Hey, put them someplace where we can grab them fast.
00:11:46 I don't belong here.
00:11:48 Well, of course you belong here, didn't I invite you?
00:11:51 Come on in and meet some of my friends.
00:11:53 Oh, gosh, no.
00:11:54 Is there a drink in the house?
00:11:56 Right off the boat, that's what the bootlegger said.
00:11:58 Did he say what boat?
00:11:59 Oh, what boat would you like?
00:12:01 We have all the labels.
00:12:02 Come on, help yourself.
00:12:03 You?
00:12:06 Never use it.
00:12:07 Never use it.
00:12:08 You know, this party might turn out all right at the end.
00:12:22 Where's Roger?
00:12:25 I thought maybe you'd know.
00:12:28 Pretty crazy about that reporter, aren't you?
00:12:32 I'm sort of fond of him.
00:12:36 It's bad.
00:12:37 I hate to see a nice girl like you get mixed up with a newspaper man.
00:12:41 Gosh, you never know what they're up to.
00:12:43 They can get away with anything.
00:12:45 Hell, if I were there working.
00:12:47 Of course, a lot of fun ducking around interviewing chorus girls and all that sort of thing.
00:12:54 You sing good swell.
00:12:58 You're married.
00:12:59 Applejack, don't worry about me.
00:13:02 I don't need any advice.
00:13:03 I've never even thought about getting married.
00:13:06 You're not fooling?
00:13:07 I'm not fooling.
00:13:09 Well, I'm worried sick.
00:13:11 About what?
00:13:12 I've been telling him for six months if he didn't keep away from you, he'd find himself married.
00:13:16 [singing]
00:13:41 Julia, I've got the torch here right away.
00:13:43 [singing]
00:13:53 Wait a minute, be alone.
00:13:54 I've had a real break.
00:13:58 Flynn quit his job over in Tokyo.
00:14:00 He's our Japanese correspondent.
00:14:02 He got fed up with the assignment or the weather or something.
00:14:04 Imagine the spot they left the paper in.
00:14:06 Only one man in the audience and he walked out on a job.
00:14:08 Oh, darling, you're cold.
00:14:10 Here, put this around you.
00:14:11 I'm just excited.
00:14:12 Come on.
00:14:13 There we are.
00:14:16 You're going to take his place.
00:14:18 Well, that's what they want me to do.
00:14:20 I've got a ticket here for a train that leaves at 3 a.m.
00:14:23 Gets me to San Francisco just in time to catch the next boat for Yokohama.
00:14:26 I can't believe it yet, Julia.
00:14:30 Imagine them picking me.
00:14:31 Well, you're able, Roger.
00:14:33 You have ability.
00:14:34 Anybody can see that.
00:14:36 You're going, huh?
00:14:40 That's what I want to talk to you about, honey.
00:14:42 It's a good salary, two-year contract, and I'm more or less my own boss.
00:14:46 It's the kind of opportunity I've always wanted.
00:14:48 So, look, dear.
00:14:50 I was wondering...
00:14:51 Listen, little boy.
00:14:53 Of course I want you to go.
00:14:55 That's what's worrying you.
00:14:56 Please don't think...
00:14:58 No.
00:14:59 I wasn't worrying about that.
00:15:01 I knew you'd want me to take the job.
00:15:03 Sure.
00:15:04 But...
00:15:05 Julia, let's get married.
00:15:09 Let's get married right away tonight.
00:15:11 I'll be here to send for you in three months.
00:15:13 I'll have the money then.
00:15:14 Three months?
00:15:17 Why the rush to get married now?
00:15:20 Well...
00:15:22 Would you think I'm going to let a funny little redhead like you run around loose here?
00:15:25 Suppose the motherfucker came along and...
00:15:27 Oh, Julia, I've got to have you.
00:15:31 [music]
00:15:33 Is it till death do us part?
00:15:43 Till death do us part.
00:15:47 [laughter]
00:15:58 Happy New Year!
00:15:59 Happy New Year!
00:16:03 Happy New Year!
00:16:04 Happy New Year!
00:16:05 Happy New Year!
00:16:10 [music]
00:16:12 [singing]
00:16:14 For richer, for poorer.
00:16:35 For richer, for poorer.
00:16:37 In sickness and in health.
00:16:40 In sickness and in health.
00:16:42 To love and to cherish.
00:16:45 To love and to cherish.
00:16:48 Till death do us part.
00:16:51 Till death do us part.
00:16:54 Oh, thank you.
00:17:01 Well, we made it.
00:17:02 Well, goodbye, Appa Jack.
00:17:06 Bye, boy.
00:17:07 Keep an eye on Julie for me.
00:17:08 I sure will.
00:17:10 So long, darling.
00:17:11 Take good care of her.
00:17:12 I will.
00:17:13 Goodbye, honey.
00:17:15 Goodbye, darling.
00:17:18 Excuse me a minute.
00:17:21 Wait for me.
00:17:23 All right.
00:17:24 Oh, Roger, I can't say goodbye.
00:17:26 Here you are, sir.
00:17:28 Thank you.
00:17:33 Thank you.
00:17:34 Now, goodbye, darling.
00:17:35 We'll just see you later.
00:17:38 Anything I can do for you, boss?
00:17:40 How soon does the train pull out?
00:17:41 About three minutes, sir.
00:17:42 Thank you.
00:17:43 Well, Mrs. Adams?
00:17:47 Mrs. Adams.
00:17:49 Sounds strange, doesn't it?
00:17:51 Not strange.
00:17:53 Sounds great.
00:17:54 It does sound great, doesn't it?
00:17:56 Yes, darling.
00:18:06 Something about a train.
00:18:08 I don't know whether it's the way it looks or the way it smells or what it is.
00:18:12 It always makes me feel I want to be off somewhere.
00:18:15 Yes, darling.
00:18:16 I know.
00:18:18 I always feel the same way.
00:18:19 Oh, Roger.
00:18:21 I wish this was our honeymoon.
00:18:23 Oh, I do too, darling.
00:18:25 I wish this was our honeymoon.
00:18:35 Promise me never to take it off.
00:18:37 I'll never take it off.
00:18:39 No matter what happens.
00:18:41 Thank you, darling.
00:18:43 Roger, the train's moving.
00:18:56 I'll get you off.
00:18:57 I'll get you off.
00:18:58 I'll get you off.
00:19:00 I'll get you off.
00:19:02 I'll get you off.

00:20:33 Roger!
00:20:45 Darling!
00:20:47 Oh, sweetie.
00:20:50 Oh.
00:20:51 Oh.
00:20:52 Oh.
00:20:53 [music]
00:20:56 [music]
00:20:58 Well, here we are.
00:21:08 Ours?
00:21:14 Yours.
00:21:15 Roger, I didn't expect anything like this.
00:21:18 [music]
00:21:20 It's like something in a dream.
00:21:27 She's my servant.
00:21:29 Cook's saying it or Hannah's saying it.
00:21:31 How do you do?
00:21:32 Well, hello.
00:21:34 Hello.
00:21:35 Hello.
00:21:36 Hello.
00:21:37 Hello there.
00:21:38 Hello.
00:21:42 Hello.
00:21:43 [laughter]
00:21:44 Who's that?
00:21:47 Servants, children.
00:21:48 They live here.
00:21:49 I thought you didn't like children.
00:21:51 Who, me?
00:21:53 They're all right.
00:21:54 Come on in.
00:21:55 How do you like the place?
00:21:57 It's lovely.
00:21:59 But it's so luxurious.
00:22:01 How can we afford it?
00:22:02 Oh, now don't be so practical when I'm being highly romantic.
00:22:05 Nothing's too good for my little wife.
00:22:07 Come on, sit.
00:22:08 Come on.
00:22:09 How do you like that?
00:22:11 It's beautiful.
00:22:12 Oh, you are sweet.
00:22:15 But I'd have been satisfied with anything just to be here.
00:22:18 Oh, I know you would, darling, but only the best for you.
00:22:21 Come on, we have an upstairs for this house, too.
00:22:23 We have a see-in, too.
00:22:24 What's a see-in, too?
00:22:25 A see-in, too, is a Japanese word for bedroom, believe it or not.
00:22:27 That's right, you wrote me.
00:22:28 It's so Japanese.
00:22:29 Roger, it's perfect.
00:22:33 Simply perfect.
00:22:36 I thought you'd like it.
00:22:37 Hello, girl.
00:22:40 Well, Roger, are we going to keep it?
00:22:44 I mean, stay here right along?
00:22:45 I said it's yours.
00:22:47 I bought the lease from an American and went back.
00:22:49 I got the lease, the furniture, two servants, three kids, a cat and her kid.
00:22:54 All for 2,000 yen.
00:22:55 2,000 yen?
00:22:57 How much is that?
00:22:59 Oh, about a thousand dollars.
00:23:01 A thousand dollars?
00:23:02 That's right.
00:23:04 How in the world do you do it?
00:23:06 I mean, you got the money to send for me and buy all this, too.
00:23:09 Well, I got an advance.
00:23:10 An advance?
00:23:12 An advance on my salary.
00:23:14 Well, everybody does out here.
00:23:15 Only the other day a fellow down at the office was saying he wished April was here.
00:23:20 And I said, "Why?"
00:23:22 And he said, "Well, so that I can get an advance on my December salary."
00:23:24 Oh, now, darling.
00:23:32 You're not going to be one of those wives always worried about money, are you?
00:23:36 Oh, no.
00:23:37 No, only...
00:23:39 Besides, you forget we still got the inheritance.
00:23:41 Yes, I know, but...
00:23:42 Well, I sort of hate to start off in debt.
00:23:45 Especially...
00:23:47 You've got a lot to learn about the Orient.
00:23:48 Roger.
00:23:52 Remember this?
00:23:57 Oh, sure. It's one of those fortune things you got at the beach.
00:24:01 I fancy you keeping that.
00:24:02 They're not always the bunk.
00:24:05 You said that.
00:24:06 Did I say that?
00:24:08 Well, well.
00:24:09 Sometimes, like wishes, they come true.
00:24:12 Sure they do.
00:24:13 Certainly.
00:24:15 Well...
00:24:34 Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you write me?
00:24:36 You don't like them.
00:24:38 I don't like them?
00:24:39 Well, of course I do.
00:24:41 Why would I have three of them running around the house?
00:24:43 And this would be our own.
00:24:46 An American kid.
00:24:48 Our own.
00:24:50 Gee, that's great.
00:24:53 Oh, Roger.
00:24:55 Oh, I was so relieved.
00:24:58 Well, you're a funny little redhead.
00:25:07 He's fine kimono.
00:25:08 Very expensive.
00:25:10 Husband must be rich man.
00:25:13 He's either rich or...
00:25:16 What's the problem?
00:25:20 Hi.
00:25:21 What's the problem?
00:25:22 Hi.
00:25:23 What are you doing home this time of the day?
00:25:42 What makes you so beautiful, huh?
00:25:44 How'd you get off the whirly?
00:25:45 Come on, let me see you.
00:25:48 Well, if having babies makes you look like this, we'd better keep on having them.
00:25:51 How do you like it?
00:25:53 Oh, Roger, I adore it.
00:25:54 But why all this today? This isn't my birthday.
00:25:57 It's a souvenir. It's a souvenir of your stay in Japan because, darling, we're leaving.
00:26:01 Leaving Japan?
00:26:03 Now brace yourself for good news, Mrs. Adams, because good news is what I bring.
00:26:06 We now belong to that class of society known as the filthy rich.
00:26:10 Roger, the inheritance.
00:26:13 You got it.
00:26:15 Yes, ma'am.
00:26:17 Oh!
00:26:18 It's wonderful.
00:26:20 There, now you see? You didn't believe me about it, did you?
00:26:22 No, no, I didn't.
00:26:24 Is it great?
00:26:25 Thank you, Roger, darling. Thank you, Roger.
00:26:30 Oh, that's all right.
00:26:32 I'm teaching him to be a first baseman.
00:26:34 Now, paragraph two.
00:26:40 Mr. and Mrs. Roger Adams, socially prominent young couple, plan to take a trip around the world.
00:26:44 The paper's sending you.
00:26:46 No, I've quit the paper.
00:26:47 We're going to have a last fling before we settle down and become good old American parents.
00:26:51 But, Roger, you just didn't give up your job on the paper for no reason at all.
00:26:55 Oh, darling, this trip's an inspiration.
00:26:57 Do you remember the honeymoon I promised you? Well, we're going to have it.
00:27:00 But things are different now. We've got to think about the baby.
00:27:03 Well, it's just that as soon as the baby comes, we won't be able to go anywhere.
00:27:06 Besides, I want our baby born in the USA.
00:27:08 Then we can get to work and start that little paper.
00:27:11 But a trip like this costs a fortune.
00:27:14 A fortune?
00:27:15 Did you get more than the 20,000?
00:27:17 Well, no. As a matter of fact, we didn't get the 20,000.
00:27:21 We sold the property for cash and got 13,500.
00:27:24 Well, can you take a trip and buy a paper and all that on 13,500?
00:27:28 Oh, don't forget to steal lawyer's fees and deductions, stuff like that.
00:27:31 Just how much did you get, Roger?
00:27:34 I'm trying to tell you.
00:27:36 After the deductions, we got 10,000.
00:27:38 10,000?
00:27:40 Well, I still got a couple of thousand in bills around here to pay.
00:27:44 Then you really only got 8,000 dollars.
00:27:46 Yes.
00:27:48 But did you ever have that much money in your life?
00:27:52 No.
00:27:54 Well, then what are you squawking about?
00:27:56 I'm not squawking.
00:27:58 I just think you're acting like a child.
00:28:01 We should be thinking about the future.
00:28:04 You rush in and pack up your things and give up a perfectly good job.
00:28:08 No grown-up man should act like that.
00:28:10 All right.
00:28:13 I thought the trip would be a lot of fun for you.
00:28:15 If I'd known you were going to feel like that, I wouldn't have planned on it.
00:28:18 That's all right. Let's forget it. We won't go.
00:28:21 I'll go in and arrange for the packing.
00:28:26 No, no. Forget about it.

00:30:10 Otherwise you'll enjoy perfect health.
00:30:16 We are playing tennis in a couple of months.
00:30:19 Now I've got some good news for you.
00:30:22 I'm letting your husband see you today.
00:30:25 How's that?
00:30:27 Pretty.
00:30:28 Make you feel better?
00:30:29 I've had my hands full keeping that boy out of here for the last couple of days.
00:30:34 [Footsteps]
00:30:36 Hello, darling.
00:30:54 Hello, Roger.
00:30:55 Oh, well, sweet.
00:30:58 [Footsteps]
00:31:01 [Music]
00:31:30 Gee, I've been miserable not to be able to see you, honey.
00:31:32 Well, I've had a chance to do some serious thinking, dear.
00:31:39 I've been scouting around the nearby towns, trying to look for that little newspaper, you know.
00:31:45 No more silly ideas like traveling around, darling.
00:31:53 You were absolutely right about that.
00:31:55 [Music]
00:31:57 I think I found it, honey.
00:32:00 [Baby crying]
00:32:02 It's a little town just north of here, a place called Rosalia.
00:32:08 Did you ever hear of it?
00:32:10 No.
00:32:11 [Baby crying]
00:32:15 Well, it's pretty nearly the kind of place we wanted.
00:32:25 [Music]
00:32:27 There's a fellow who owns the newspaper. He's been kind of letting it go to seed, but we can make something of it.
00:32:32 And best of all, darling, we'll have a home of our own.
00:32:39 Something we can always call ours.
00:32:42 And if I can make a go of the paper, I'll be able to get you anything you want.
00:32:45 I'll be able to get you furniture, a car, clothes, everything.
00:32:51 [Baby crying]
00:32:54 You know, it's strange, Roger.
00:32:56 I can't get myself to care about those things now.
00:33:00 They don't seem important anymore.
00:33:04 The one thing I've really wanted, I'm never going to have.

00:35:29 Quite an improvement.
00:35:31 Gee, Mr. Adams, I'd like to get a job with a live wire outfit like this.
00:35:35 You would? All right, Skeeter, you've got one and a permanent job, too.
00:35:39 Oh, boy.

00:36:04 Applejack! Howdy, Big Sean.
00:36:07 Howdy, fella. How's the old married man?
00:36:09 Well, you had me worried. I thought you were going to let me down.
00:36:11 So this is the fastest growing little newspaper in the fastest growing little town in the West.
00:36:15 Certainly.
00:36:16 Now, that's the bulletin for this.
00:36:18 [Chuckles]
00:36:19 What you got here?
00:36:20 It's all new makeup. What do you think of it?
00:36:22 Pretty printed in, cold.
00:36:28 No, the line-a-type machine is stuck. Why do you think I sent for you?
00:36:31 Applejack!
00:36:33 Miss Julie!
00:36:35 Am I glad to see you.
00:36:37 Come on up and help me fix the bathtub. You're just in time.
00:36:41 Wait a minute. Let him fix this first.
00:36:43 All right. The newspaper always comes first around here.
00:36:46 Now, come on.
00:36:48 What have you been feeding it?
00:36:53 The switch on?
00:36:56 Yeah.
00:36:58 [Splash]
00:36:59 Now, where's that bathtub?
00:37:03 [Chuckles]
00:37:07 [Music]
00:37:35 [Music]
00:37:51 Hello, Applejack.
00:37:53 Oh, I didn't know you were busy.
00:37:55 Oh, I'm not busy.
00:37:57 I've just been thinking about fixing up this old store.
00:38:00 I just wanted to show you a new ad we got from the telephone company.
00:38:04 Well, that helps, doesn't it?
00:38:06 Sure does.
00:38:07 You know, if we keep on, we'll pay the paper bill next month.
00:38:10 Roger back yet?
00:38:12 No, he's still out running down subscriptions.
00:38:15 Said he might not be home until late.
00:38:17 Oh, well, come on then. Sit down, Applejack.
00:38:20 We might as well have our dinner.
00:38:23 [Music]
00:38:33 You know, Miss Julie, we ought to have a kid around this house.
00:38:38 I thought you knew about that, Applejack.
00:38:43 Oh, sure, I know about that. But I'm talking about adopting one.
00:38:51 Sure, you can get some pretty good ones that way.
00:38:54 You know, I would adopt a kid myself.
00:38:57 I know that's not much of a recommendation, but...
00:39:01 it didn't turn out so bad.
00:39:03 Besides, I know a lot of regular kids that wound up in jail.
00:39:07 Miss Julie, I wish you could have seen some of those little sons of guns I used to room with.
00:39:15 They were the cutest little rascals you'd ever want to look at.
00:39:20 I don't think Roger would want a child that way, Applejack.
00:39:23 One that wasn't his own.
00:39:25 Why not? He's no sucker. He don't want to gamble.
00:39:30 How do you know what it's going to be like if it's got to be your own?
00:39:33 This way, you just walk in and help yourself to exactly what you want.
00:39:38 There's no guesswork.
00:39:40 You know, I've thought a lot about that.
00:39:45 I want one.
00:39:50 Roger was so disappointed when...
00:39:52 I just hadn't had the courage to...
00:39:55 Miss Julie, you want to know something?
00:39:57 He's all for the idea.
00:40:00 Only a few days ago, we were working together and I was talking with him.
00:40:07 You were talking to him about this?
00:40:09 Sure.
00:40:10 He's all for it.
00:40:12 Why didn't he say something to me?
00:40:17 He was afraid to say anything to you.
00:40:19 He was afraid you might have some fool notions.
00:40:22 Silly notions.
00:40:25 If he only knew how many...
00:40:30 What the very idea.
00:40:35 My own husband talking about things like this with a...
00:40:38 a printer.
00:40:40 Press manager, please.
00:40:42 All right, the press manager.
00:40:45 Are you going to be the mother?
00:40:47 No, I just thought I...
00:40:49 I'm saying, when I get my hands on that fellow...
00:40:54 Hello, what's going on, a fight?
00:40:57 Hello, Roger.
00:40:59 Roger, I want you to look at that new ad, would you come downstairs?
00:41:02 Roger, wait a minute.
00:41:03 Applejack, why didn't you tell me?
00:41:06 Tell you what?
00:41:07 What you and Applejack have been talking about.
00:41:09 Miss Julie, I told you in confidence.
00:41:13 What were we talking about?
00:41:15 What did you say to her?
00:41:16 You know, about the...
00:41:18 He told me.
00:41:19 Told you what?
00:41:21 Well, you know what we were talking about, that...
00:41:23 What were we talking about?
00:41:25 Roger, if you wanted to adopt a baby, why didn't you talk to me?
00:41:29 Yes, you should have told her by ranks in the first place, Roger, not me.
00:41:32 I'm not going to be the mother.
00:41:34 Wait a minute, did...
00:41:36 Did you tell Julie I wanted to adopt a baby?
00:41:39 Well, I hid it in.
00:41:42 I hid it in it.
00:41:43 I tried to break it to her gently and she...
00:41:46 Oh, you told her?
00:41:47 Yeah.
00:41:48 Roger, I'm so glad to hear that way.
00:41:50 Yeah, she wants it even more than you, Roger.
00:41:53 Well, if that's the way we all feel about it.
00:41:56 I like it too.
00:41:57 I suppose it's settled.
00:41:59 Oh, Roger, I'm so glad.
00:42:01 If it hadn't been for Applejack letting it slip out, I don't suppose I ever would have known.
00:42:05 Guess I'd better go fix that press.
00:42:08 Yeah, you fix everything else, don't you?
00:42:10 Didn't do so bad of a bet.
00:42:12 Oh, Julie, while I think of it...
00:42:15 Look, now...
00:42:17 When you get to this place, don't get enthusiastic right off the bat.
00:42:21 You know, don't...
00:42:23 Don't just rush in and grab the first kid you see and go nuts about it.
00:42:26 What makes you think I'll grab the first one they show me?
00:42:30 I've been doing the shopping in this family for some time now.
00:42:33 I just don't bring home anything.
00:42:35 I don't know, you came home with this tie, didn't you?
00:42:39 Oh, it's nice.
00:42:40 Everybody's wearing bow ties.
00:42:42 I have your letter here.
00:42:46 Two-year-old child, blue eyes, curly hair, dimpled chin, sweet disposition.
00:42:51 We prefer a boy.
00:42:53 But we'd like to look at the girl too.
00:42:55 Now, Julie, you know we agreed on a boy.
00:42:57 It won't hurt to look, will it?
00:42:59 All right, we'll look.
00:43:00 Now, what can you show us?
00:43:04 Well, this is the administration building.
00:43:06 We don't have any children here at all.
00:43:08 Oh.
00:43:09 Everybody wants blue eyes, curly hair, dimples, sweet...
00:43:14 Everybody wants a two-year-old child.
00:43:16 Will you tell me why?
00:43:17 Well, you see, in our case, that would have been the age of our own child if...
00:43:25 Oh.
00:43:26 I see.
00:43:28 Anyway, when they're two years old, they're more or less housebroken then, aren't they?
00:43:34 Well, not always.
00:43:37 At the moment, we haven't any children available at all.
00:43:40 There's a long waiting list.
00:43:42 There are three applications for every child.
00:43:44 If you get one within a year, you'll be lucky.
00:43:47 What?
00:43:48 A year?
00:43:49 You mean to say we might have to wait a year?
00:43:52 Well, after all, real parents wait almost a year.
00:43:55 Well, yes, certainly, but...
00:43:56 No, but you see, we've waited so long already.
00:43:59 I know, my dear, but you're both so young.
00:44:02 Then, too, we have to have time to make our investigation.
00:44:05 Investigation?
00:44:07 Yes, you see, we're just as particular about you as prospective parents as you are about the child.
00:44:13 Naturally.
00:44:14 What is your business, Mr. Adams?
00:44:17 I'm a publisher. I run the Rosalia Courier.
00:44:21 Publisher?
00:44:22 Sure.
00:44:23 I beg your pardon, but I'm not a publisher.
00:44:27 I'm a lawyer.
00:44:28 Oh, I see.
00:44:29 I beg your pardon, Mrs. Green is on the phone.
00:44:33 What shall I tell her?
00:44:35 Oh, tell her that we're sorry.
00:44:39 But according to our investigator's report, we find that Mr. Green doesn't have a steady income.
00:44:45 Later, perhaps, if he finds himself better situated, we'll reconsider their application.
00:44:51 You see, it's not our aim to place our children in homes of wealth.
00:44:56 But it's absolutely necessary for us to have the assurance that the adoptive parents are financially responsible.
00:45:02 Oh, sure.
00:45:03 I see in your letter that you live in the country. Good.
00:45:08 I presume that means, then, that you have a house and yard.
00:45:11 Well, uh...
00:45:13 No, we don't have a yard.
00:45:15 We live in an apartment.
00:45:17 But there's a nice park nearby.
00:45:20 Oh, yeah, we got a small roof, too. We've been putting a fence around it.
00:45:24 And I could... I could build a slide in the sandbox.
00:45:27 As a matter of fact, a roof is better for a kid, 'cause then he can't get out on the street, you see.
00:45:31 Look, it doesn't have to be a yard, does it?
00:45:34 No.
00:45:36 But you have a separate room for the child, haven't you? That's very important.
00:45:39 Oh, sure.
00:45:40 Oh, yes, yes, we have a lovely room. It's practically fixed up now.
00:45:44 Oh, well, that's fine.
00:45:46 Now, about income.
00:45:49 Approximately, how much do you make a week?
00:45:54 Well, I... I couldn't tell you offhand.
00:45:57 I... I imagine about $100 a week.
00:45:59 'Cause I'd have to look at the books.
00:46:01 Well, that's excellent.
00:46:02 You'll just take that application home with you.
00:46:05 Fill it out and mail it in to us so we'll have all the details.
00:46:08 And then, in due time, one of our investigators will call on you.
00:46:11 Oh, fine.
00:46:12 You... you'll call us before she comes, won't you?
00:46:15 No.
00:46:16 We just drop in. That's our policy.
00:46:19 You see, we want to find your house as it really is every day.
00:46:23 Not when it's fixed up for company.
00:46:25 Oh, I see.
00:46:26 Goodbye.
00:46:27 Goodbye, Miss Oliver.
00:46:28 Goodbye.
00:46:29 Oh, uh...
00:46:32 It doesn't matter if he hasn't got curly hair.
00:46:35 It doesn't really matter.
00:46:37 Hi.
00:46:44 Hey there, don't be choosy if you ask me.
00:46:46 Oh, you have to be a big shot.
00:46:47 When?
00:46:48 You know we don't make $100 a week.
00:46:51 You want the baby, don't you?
00:46:53 They can't prove it. We don't keep books.
00:46:55 Hey, quit stalling. Get on with the cleaning.
00:47:03 Look, honey, left from the earthquake.
00:47:05 Want your pen?
00:47:06 You better buy some more.
00:47:14 Stop that man's dance, please.
00:47:17 Stop that man's dance, please.
00:47:20 Excuse me, lady.
00:47:30 We should give a fellow a warning.
00:47:32 Does Mrs. Adams live here?
00:47:34 Yes, upstairs. I'll call her.
00:47:36 No, don't bother.
00:47:37 I'm Miss Oliver from the orphanage.
00:47:39 I'll find her.
00:47:40 I don't think she's home just now.
00:47:42 I think she's in church.
00:47:44 In church this time of day?
00:47:46 Well, you see, she and Mr. Adams go there quite a lot.
00:47:51 They just go there and sit.
00:47:53 Find people they haven't.
00:47:55 Well, I'm sure that she won't mind if I just look around a bit.
00:48:08 No, she won't mind.
00:48:11 She won't mind.
00:48:13 [Music]
00:48:17 [Music]

00:48:57 [Music]
00:49:00 How do you do, Miss Oliver?
00:49:02 How do you do, Miss Adams?
00:49:04 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:49:05 It's all right.
00:49:07 Won't you sit down?
00:49:10 Here.
00:49:15 No, thank you.
00:49:17 You've come to see the apartment?
00:49:22 That's right.
00:49:25 This is it.
00:49:26 It's not very neat at the moment.
00:49:29 We're cleaning.
00:49:31 I see.
00:49:32 That's our little breakfast room out there.
00:49:38 And, uh, you'll step right this way.
00:49:45 That's our kitchen.
00:49:52 [Footsteps]
00:49:55 I hope the new cook's door comes out of it.
00:50:01 It's been so messy on the...
00:50:03 And, uh, that brings us back to the...
00:50:11 to the breakfast room.
00:50:14 Could I fix you a cup of tea?
00:50:21 No, thank you.
00:50:23 You spoke of a child's room, a lovely room.
00:50:27 Yes.
00:50:28 Yes, that's over here.
00:50:30 [Music]
00:50:39 Oh, this is sweet.
00:50:50 You really like it?
00:50:52 Any child would be lucky to have a room like this.
00:50:55 Oh, well, I want you to see our yard.
00:50:57 We're fixing that up, too.
00:50:59 [Laughter]
00:51:03 Well.
00:51:05 Well, hello, Miss Oliver.
00:51:07 I didn't expect you.
00:51:09 I just finished making it.
00:51:11 Thought I'd try it out, see if it was strong enough for that two-year-old.
00:51:14 I think I have a surprise for you.
00:51:17 A baby came in yesterday.
00:51:19 No.
00:51:20 Miss Oliver, you mean...
00:51:21 Here, come and sit down.
00:51:22 Thank you.
00:51:23 Sit down.
00:51:27 That's the reason that we came around to see you sooner than we expected.
00:51:31 It's a little girl.
00:51:33 We don't want a girl.
00:51:36 Five weeks and three days old.
00:51:40 Five weeks?
00:51:42 Well, uh, we did speak of an older child, you know.
00:51:48 You might have to wait a long time.
00:51:51 After all, aren't you making too great a point of the child's age, Mr. Adams?
00:51:56 Eventually, this child will be two years old.
00:52:00 But we don't know anything about such little babies.
00:52:03 Well, no one does until they have them.
00:52:06 And this is such an unusual little baby.
00:52:09 Actually, there's another couple who has first choice.
00:52:12 That's strictly off the record.
00:52:14 But somehow I feel she's exactly the child for you.
00:52:17 That's why I wanted you to see her first.
00:52:19 And I couldn't resist giving you the chance.
00:52:21 Did you bring her with you?
00:52:23 No, she's in the nursery.
00:52:24 You and Mr. Adams will have to come over to the city to see her.
00:52:27 What's she like, Miss Oliver?
00:52:30 Well, I can't describe her exactly, but she's...
00:52:36 Well, she's like no other child.
00:52:40 Like no other child.
00:52:45 But she isn't a boy.
00:52:47 But look, Roger, there's no harm in looking at her.
00:52:52 If you don't like her, I won't say a word.
00:52:54 What's the use? We don't want her.
00:52:57 Please, darling.
00:53:02 It won't hurt to look at her.
00:53:05 Oh, all right, we'll look.
00:53:09 Oh, that's fine.
00:53:11 You call me up and I'll make an appointment at the nursery.
00:53:14 I must go now.
00:53:16 Oh, if you change your mind, you will call me up, won't you?
00:53:23 Yes, yes.
00:53:26 Miss Oliver, please don't show her to that other couple until we've seen her, will you?
00:53:31 I won't, my dear.
00:53:33 [Bells jingling]
00:53:36 [Baby crying]
00:53:54 [Music]
00:54:21 She's like no other child.
00:54:24 That's why I wanted you to see her first.
00:54:27 Like no other child.
00:54:30 Well, how about him?
00:54:43 This is a day nursery.
00:54:47 All these youngsters have parents.
00:54:49 All except this lovely little girl.
00:54:52 What a grip.
00:55:06 For a girl, I mean.
00:55:10 Would you like to hold her?
00:55:12 Why, I...
00:55:16 [Music]
00:55:27 [Baby crying]
00:55:33 [Baby crying]
00:55:39 [Baby cooing]
00:55:43 [Music]
00:55:48 Quite a kid.
00:55:50 Well, you've had your look, dear. How about going back home?
00:56:01 Oh, she's yours, I guess.
00:56:11 When do we get her?
00:56:12 Now, if you like.
00:56:14 She's yours on a year's probation.
00:56:16 No.
00:56:18 You mean we can just walk out of here with her like this?
00:56:21 It sometimes happens that way.
00:56:23 If we make sure that the parents and the baby are just right for each other.
00:56:29 Well...
00:56:30 We have no clothes for her, though. We don't know how to feed her.
00:56:33 Such a little baby.
00:56:34 Well, Miss Morgan will take care of everything.
00:56:37 She'll give you the formula and so forth, and then you can go downtown and buy whatever's necessary.
00:56:42 Thank you, Miss Oliver, for being so kind.
00:56:52 Oh, don't thank me. It just happens so.
00:56:55 Perhaps before you make up your mind fully to take the child, you'd like to have me go into her history.
00:57:01 I can assure you it's an excellent one.
00:57:05 If you take a chance on us, we'll take a chance on her.
00:57:08 Goodbye.
00:57:09 Goodbye.
00:57:10 Goodbye, Miss Oliver.
00:57:11 I'll shut the door.
00:57:34 If you ever wake up again, you know what that means.
00:57:36 Wait a minute. Wait for that baby while I turn on the light.
00:57:43 I don't want you to stop it. I mean her.
00:57:46 Come on.

01:00:13 (door thudding)
01:00:15 (door thudding)
01:00:18 (indistinct)

01:00:28 - Yeah.
01:00:29 - Come on, let's go to bed.
01:00:31 - No.
01:00:32 (door thudding)
01:00:38 (footsteps thudding)
01:00:41 - I don't think I'll go to bed.
01:00:50 She eats again in a half hour.
01:00:51 Direction say so.
01:00:54 - Set the alarm.
01:00:56 Come on.
01:00:57 - No.
01:01:01 - Turn the big closed door.
01:01:04 (door thudding)
01:01:06 (footsteps thudding)
01:01:09 (alarm ringing)
01:01:15 - Turn it off.

01:01:38 (door thudding)
01:02:04 (footsteps thudding)
01:02:07 - What's the matter with it?
01:02:13 - I don't know.
01:02:13 Do you think she's all right?
01:02:14 - Huh?
01:02:15 Is it breathing?
01:02:24 (baby crying)
01:02:31 - Oh.
01:02:32 She's certainly a good little baby, isn't she?
01:02:37 - We were lucky to get her.
01:02:38 Let's go to bed.
01:02:45 (door thudding)
01:02:48 (door thudding)
01:03:16 (baby crying)
01:03:19 - Well, do something, quickly.
01:03:43 (baby crying)
01:03:45 - What do I do?
01:03:48 - Well, do something.
01:03:50 Can't you see the baby's suffering?
01:03:52 - She just said, "I don't know what to do."
01:03:55 (baby crying)
01:03:57 - Oh, now don't just stand there.
01:04:01 Do something.
01:04:02 - You take care of him.
01:04:06 Go on.
01:04:07 You do something.
01:04:08 (baby crying)
01:04:11 (baby crying)
01:04:13 - Oh, no, no, I'm gonna get you, Zahra.
01:04:21 (baby crying)
01:04:23 (baby crying)
01:04:25 (Zahra laughing)
01:04:46 - Just wanted her daddy.

01:07:14 (door creaking)
01:07:23 - Julie, the baby!
01:07:37 It's gone!
01:07:37 The baby's dead, Matt!
01:07:41 (baby crying)
01:07:43 - You're lonesome, so I brought him here with us.
01:08:00 - Don't ever do that to me again!
01:08:04 (baby crying)
01:08:07 - Morning, boys.
01:08:17 (engine rumbling)
01:08:22 - What are you trying to do?
01:08:33 Shut it off!
01:08:34 - Matt! - Shut it off!
01:08:36 - Oh!
01:08:37 - Now, what are you trying to do?
01:08:45 - What am I trying to do?
01:08:46 Well, I'm trying to get your crummy paper out.
01:08:48 That's what I'm trying to do.
01:08:49 - What's your idea of waking the baby up?
01:08:51 - What baby?
01:08:52 - My baby!
01:08:53 - Your baby?
01:08:54 - Yeah.
01:08:55 Came last night.
01:08:56 - No fooling a baby?
01:08:58 - Woo!
01:08:59 - The baby!
01:09:00 - Quiet, quiet!
01:09:02 Come on, show us.
01:09:03 (baby crying)
01:09:24 (knife clattering)
01:09:27 - Can I help?
01:09:45 - No.
01:09:46 the baby.
01:09:47 (knife clattering)
01:09:49 (baby crying)
01:10:01 (knife clattering)
01:10:10 - Sure you don't want me to help?
01:10:16 - No, thanks.

01:11:25 - I'm sorry.
01:11:28 (knife clattering)
01:11:40 (baby crying)
01:11:45 - What's the matter?
01:11:46 - Nothing's the matter.
01:11:48 (knife clattering)
01:11:51 (baby crying)
01:12:00 - What's the trouble?
01:12:04 - I can't do anything as long as you're sitting around
01:12:05 here watching me.
01:12:06 Get out.
01:12:07 Go on, get out all of you.
01:12:09 What do you think you're doing?
01:12:09 - Come on, get out.
01:12:11 Go on now, get out that baby.
01:12:12 And be quiet about it.
01:12:14 - Oh, I don't have a baby.
01:12:18 - All right, I'll drown him.
01:12:19 - Oh, no, darling, no, no.
01:12:21 Take it easy.
01:12:22 - I could drown him that much water.
01:12:25 Here.
01:12:26 - Come on, get your.
01:12:27 (baby crying)
01:12:30 - Oh, you're a peanut.
01:12:48 - Your Uncle Applejack's gonna give you a nice bath.
01:12:52 Give me that wash rag.
01:12:56 - Huh?
01:12:57 - There we are.
01:12:58 - I'll never be able to do that.
01:13:08 We'll have to give it back.
01:13:10 - Sure you will.
01:13:10 I'll tell you these, you know.
01:13:12 All you got to do is decide who's boss, you're it.
01:13:17 - Father, did you ever learn to do that, Applejack?
01:13:19 - My sister had four kids.
01:13:21 She took two and I take two.
01:13:23 - So pretty.
01:13:29 - Where's that towel?
01:13:38 There we are.
01:13:47 (baby crying)
01:13:49 I'll dry it a little.
01:13:51 Where's the towel, come on.
01:13:56 Here.
01:14:14 (laughing)
01:14:16 Where is it?
01:14:21 - What?
01:14:22 - It.
01:14:23 - Oh.
01:14:24 - There we are.
01:14:29 Yes, sir, who's a mighty fine girl?
01:14:32 Just a minute now.
01:14:42 (sniffing)
01:14:44 Think you can hold this a minute without dropping it?
01:14:51 - I'm sure.
01:14:52 - Here, give it here.
01:15:00 - I forget when I...
01:15:02 - Now watch this closely.
01:15:05 (sniffing)
01:15:08 I'm a one pin man myself.
01:15:17 There you are.
01:15:23 Jump right in there, Peanut.
01:15:25 You can go to your mama.
01:15:32 (baby cooing)
01:15:34 Hey, you better write all that down
01:15:37 because I might get a better offer.

01:16:21 - Huh?
01:16:22 A boy, what do you mean a boy?
01:16:24 Let me hear that.
01:16:25 You wanted a boy, I didn't want a boy.

01:17:03 - How you doing, Miss Adams?
01:17:04 - Come in.
01:17:05 Thank you so much for letting us know
01:17:07 you were coming this time.
01:17:10 - Hello, Miss Oliver.
01:17:13 - Oh, how do you do, Mr. Adams?
01:17:14 - Tina, this is your fairy godmother, Miss Oliver.
01:17:18 - Say hello, sweetheart.
01:17:20 Yes, she's not very timid, is she?
01:17:24 I can plainly see that she adores her father.
01:17:28 She means everything to us.
01:17:29 - Oh, she might get a cold.
01:17:31 - Yes, she'd do everything.
01:17:34 - When are we gonna get to own her outright?
01:17:36 - You go before the judge, the 27th.
01:17:38 - 27th, huh?
01:17:39 - You'll want to see these charts, I suppose.
01:17:42 Yes, we should have them ready for you here.
01:17:45 One you can send back to us.
01:17:53 And the other you'll file with the court,
01:17:55 at the court with the final papers.
01:17:58 These are the same questions that you answered last year.
01:18:02 We just want to bring them up to date.
01:18:05 Now let's see.
01:18:07 Religion?
01:18:08 Same.
01:18:11 Age?
01:18:22 One year older.
01:18:24 (laughs)
01:18:24 I have that.
01:18:26 Profession?
01:18:28 Still publisher, isn't it?
01:18:32 - Yes.
01:18:32 - Income?
01:18:37 Income?
01:18:43 - Well, you see, Miss Oliver...
01:18:48 - None.
01:18:49 - None.
01:19:17 - Oh, that's the way it is in the newspaper game, Miss Oliver.
01:19:20 Especially when you're starting one of your own.
01:19:23 You'll have to close now, watch,
01:19:23 before you really get going.
01:19:26 Ah, it's only temporary.
01:19:27 I'm having a jam in my wholesale paper mill.
01:19:30 First thing you know, I'll have it humming by the 27th.
01:19:34 I'll only close for a while.
01:19:37 - I'm sure you'll find a way, Mr. Adams.
01:19:45 But you and I have to prove to the judge
01:19:48 that your income is enough to take care of Trina.
01:19:52 - You know we'd give Trina everything she needed,
01:19:54 Miss Oliver, no matter who else had to suffer around here.
01:19:58 - I realize that.
01:19:59 (laughs)
01:20:04 Well, I must go now.
01:20:10 That's all we can do today.
01:20:12 - Uh, could I drive you to the train?
01:20:16 - No, thank you, I really like to walk.
01:20:19 This country air is so fresh.
01:20:22 Goodbye.
01:20:23 - Oh.
01:20:29 - Madeleine, she doesn't want us to have Trina.
01:20:35 - Yes, she does, darling.
01:20:37 Oh, yes, she does.

01:23:06 - Option to seek the Adams case.
01:23:08 - What?
01:23:09 - The Adams case.
01:23:11 - Oh, yes, sir.
01:23:12 - If either one or both of you gentlemen
01:23:15 conduct yourselves like you've been doing today,
01:23:17 I'll hold you in contempt, the both of you.
01:23:21 - Yes, sir.
01:23:22 - Oh.
01:23:30 Oh, this is a challenging question, let me see.
01:23:35 Yes, let's see.
01:23:49 Looking over these adoption papers here,
01:23:53 I see that you have no income at present.
01:23:56 Is that correct?
01:23:58 - Yes, your honor.
01:23:59 - What is this, Miss Oliver?
01:24:00 You know, this case should never have come before me.
01:24:04 - Well, your honor, I feel that this is a special case.
01:24:08 I kept hoping until the last minute
01:24:10 that Mr. Adams might be able to resume
01:24:12 the office, his paper, or get a job.
01:24:15 But unfortunately, he hasn't been able to do either,
01:24:18 so I thought we--
01:24:19 - Under these conditions, I cannot grant the adoption.
01:24:23 This child will have to revert to the orphanage.
01:24:27 Will you draw up a chair, please,
01:24:29 while I prepare these release papers for you to sign?
01:24:33 - Just a matter of routine.
01:24:44 (footsteps)
01:24:46 - If you please, your honor, it can't just be a matter
01:25:01 of routine for people to have their baby
01:25:02 taken away from them.
01:25:05 This child is ours, Judge.
01:25:07 - Those are the requirements of the law.
01:25:11 - Yes, but you see, we've had her since she was six weeks old.
01:25:15 It just doesn't seem reasonable that we should have
01:25:16 to give her back now to strangers.
01:25:19 - Mr. Adams, you're not here to plead your case.
01:25:23 You've had the regular opportunity
01:25:25 to prove your fitness to provide.
01:25:28 - We are fit, Judge, if you just look at the record.
01:25:34 Without any income, I have no alternative.
01:25:38 Didn't you make that clear, Miss Oliver?
01:25:41 - Yes, your honor, I did, but I thought--
01:25:43 - I'm sorry, but that is the law.
01:25:46 - Look, your honor, she's nothing like an automobile
01:26:04 or an icebox or a piece of furniture
01:26:06 or something you buy on time, and then when you can't
01:26:08 keep up the payments, they take it away from you?
01:26:10 (baby crying)
01:26:11 Now sit still and be a good girl.
01:26:14 Anyone can give up those kind of things.
01:26:16 But I ask you, Judge, how can you give up your own child?
01:26:19 And she is our child, just as much as if she'd been born to us.
01:26:21 (baby crying)
01:26:24 Now, now, Daddy's not gonna go away, dear.
01:26:27 Look, Judge, we've had her over a year now.
01:26:34 Why, we've walked the floor with her when she had the colic.
01:26:37 We've lost nights of sleep worrying
01:26:39 every time she cut a tooth.
01:26:40 We've gone through everything.
01:26:42 Everything that real parents have is one of their own.
01:26:45 Ask Miss Oliver here about the inspections
01:26:46 we've had to have.
01:26:48 Her weight charts, her vaccination certificates,
01:26:50 her toys, her dresses, her toothbrush.
01:26:53 They come around regularly and check up on all those things
01:26:55 to see if we're taking care of her properly.
01:26:58 How many real parents could keep one of their own
01:26:59 and go through that?
01:27:01 And you sit there and say it's a matter of routine
01:27:04 for you to take her away from us.
01:27:05 - Please, Mr. Adams.
01:27:08 (scoffs)
01:27:10 - I'm sorry, Judge.
01:27:14 But...
01:27:19 Well, you see, we weren't as fortunate as most people.
01:27:26 We'd have had one of our own.
01:27:29 You don't know how badly my wife wanted a child.
01:27:33 It wasn't so important to me.
01:27:36 I don't know, I suppose most men are like this,
01:27:37 but children never meant a great deal to me.
01:27:40 Oh, I like them all right, I suppose.
01:27:43 But what I'm trying to say is, Your Honor,
01:27:45 the first time I saw her,
01:27:47 she looked so little and helpless.
01:27:53 I didn't know babies were so little.
01:27:56 And then when she took hold of my finger and held onto it,
01:27:59 she just sort of walked into my heart, Judge,
01:28:01 and she was there to stay.
01:28:04 I didn't know I could feel like that.
01:28:08 I'd always been, well, kind of careless and irresponsible.
01:28:13 I wanted to be a big shot.
01:28:15 I couldn't work for anybody, I had to be my own boss,
01:28:17 that sort of thing.
01:28:19 Now here I am, standing in front of a judge,
01:28:25 pleading for just a little longer
01:28:26 so that I can prove to you I can support a little child
01:28:28 that doesn't weigh quite 20 pounds.
01:28:32 (silence)
01:28:34 It's not only for my wife and me I'm asking you
01:28:38 to let us keep her, Judge, it's for her sake, too.
01:28:42 She doesn't know any parents but us.
01:28:44 She wouldn't know what had happened to her.
01:28:47 You see, there's so many little things about her
01:28:48 that nobody would understand her the way Julie and I do.
01:28:52 We love her, Judge.
01:28:55 Please don't take her away from us.
01:28:59 I'm not a big shot now.
01:29:01 I'll do anything, I'll work for anybody.
01:29:05 I'll bank, I'll borrow.
01:29:07 Please, Judge, I'll sell anything I've got
01:29:10 until I get going again.
01:29:13 She'll never go hungry, she'll never be without clothes,
01:29:15 not as long as I've got two good hands to help me.

01:30:43 Now and forever.
01:30:44 (sobbing)
01:30:47 - Oh, Trina.

01:30:55 (somber music)
01:30:58 (somber music)
01:31:01 (dramatic music)
01:31:09 - You better hurry up, Daddy.
01:31:25 Mommy'll be home any minute now.
01:31:27 But look, dear, you go and watch for her.
01:31:28 Let me know when she comes, huh?
01:31:31 - How's it getting along, Applej?
01:31:36 - Ain't she a beauty?
01:31:37 - There she comes.
01:31:42 - What, now?
01:31:43 Well, let's get the presents, quick.
01:31:46 Oh, here she comes.
01:31:47 We'll get them later.
01:31:49 (door opening)
01:31:52 - Where is everybody?
01:32:13 - Quick.
01:32:14 - Trina.
01:32:17 Trina.
01:32:18 Trina.
01:32:20 Where could everybody be this time of the day?
01:32:24 - Surprise.
01:32:25 - Surprise.
01:32:26 Happy birthday.
01:32:27 - Happy birthday.
01:32:28 - Happy birthday, darling.
01:32:29 - Oh, oh, thank you.
01:32:31 - Come on, sit down.
01:32:31 Trina's gonna make a present.
01:32:32 - I'd almost forgotten today was my birthday.
01:32:36 - This is from Daddy.
01:32:37 - Daddy?
01:32:38 - Uh-huh.
01:32:39 - Roger.
01:32:45 I always wanted one like that.
01:32:48 - I'm glad you like it, darling.
01:32:55 - And this is from Uncle Applejack.
01:32:58 - Uncle Applejack?
01:32:59 Oh, I think I can guess what this is.
01:33:03 - I got you.
01:33:05 - Oh, it's beautiful, Applejack.
01:33:09 - I always figure a person can't have too many handkerchiefs.
01:33:13 - Thank you.
01:33:15 - Thank you.
01:33:16 - And this is from me.
01:33:19 - From you.
01:33:20 - I'm wondering what this is.
01:33:26 - Uh-oh, open.
01:33:27 - I got you a record 'cause you love records.
01:33:32 And 'cause you and Daddy love each other so much.
01:33:37 - Oh, Trina, that's sweet, darling.
01:33:40 Thank you.
01:33:41 Come on, let's play.
01:33:42 - Yes. - See how it goes.
01:33:43 - Roger.
01:33:44 - Dinner's ready.
01:33:45 Come and get it or I'll throw in the creek.
01:33:48 - Oh, isn't it wonderful?
01:33:50 Dinner in my own home and I didn't have to cook it.
01:33:54 - Oh, isn't it?
01:33:55 Well.
01:33:59 - Woo.
01:34:02 Woo.
01:34:03 - Well, we sure changed the complexion of that bird.
01:34:20 - We certainly did.
01:34:22 - What'd you do in school today, darling?
01:34:25 - Oh, I almost forgot, I was choosed.
01:34:28 I'm going to be in the Christmas play.
01:34:31 - In the Christmas play?
01:34:33 What are you gonna do?
01:34:34 - I'm gonna sing in the carolers.
01:34:36 - Uh-huh.
01:34:37 - Oh, Trina, that's wonderful.
01:34:39 It'll be fun making you a carolers costume.
01:34:42 - I don't need any costume.
01:34:43 Nobody sees me.
01:34:45 - Nobody sees you?
01:34:46 - All I have to wear is a cream dress and some sneakers.
01:34:50 I'm the echo.
01:34:51 I'm a way off behind the scenes.
01:34:54 You only hear my voice.
01:34:56 Miss Hopkins is my voice.
01:34:59 Miss Hopkins says it gives a far away sound,
01:35:03 like angels in heaven.
01:35:04 - Oh.
01:35:05 - Well, why do you have to wear the sneakers?
01:35:07 - The sneakers are so I'll be quiet.
01:35:09 I have to walk up in the sky behind a cloud
01:35:12 and take a big star with me.
01:35:14 Then when I get over the manger, I stop.
01:35:17 And then the angels sing.
01:35:18 And when my turn comes, I sing the echo.
01:35:21 Then I sneak off quietly.
01:35:23 And next year when I'm big,
01:35:26 I get to be an angel and wear an angel suit.
01:35:30 I'll get seen then.
01:35:32 - Of course you'll get seen then, darling.
01:35:38 - This is a long time until next year, Daddy.
01:35:41 - Oh, no, darling.
01:35:43 You'll be here in no time at all.
01:35:45 (door creaking)
01:35:47 - Oh, I forgot.
01:35:59 - Oh, my, what happened to the lights?
01:36:01 - Shh.
01:36:02 - Did you see the lights go out?

01:40:15 She said you did fine.
01:40:17 - Well, you were better than all the rest of them put together.
01:40:20 - See?
01:40:22 - Honest?
01:40:23 - Honest.

01:45:28 May I use your phone, please? Our car is sold and I'd like to call a taxi.
01:45:32 It's right here on the desk if you'll just look around that way. Thanks.
01:45:36 I saw your light burning and we're in such a hurry.
01:45:40 Cabs are always busy on a night like this.
01:45:57 [door opens]
01:46:00 I do hope we can get one. Mommy's in the Christmas play.

01:46:13 Our car's right out front. I'll drive you over if you like.
01:46:21 Oh, that's very kind of you, but it wouldn't be too much trouble.
01:46:26 Come with me.
01:46:29 You can't start the car. The battery's dead. I'll have to crank it.
01:46:53 [music]
01:46:56 I do hope we're not late, Mama.
01:47:02 I can't thank you enough. If you only knew what these things mean to a child.
01:47:22 Let's get out of here.
01:47:25 Roger.

01:47:42 What's the matter?
01:47:56 Take the car on home.
01:48:07 Roger.
01:48:10 I'm not coming home. I don't ever want to see anything or anyone that reminds me.
01:48:14 All right.
01:48:20 Goodbye.

01:49:59 Yes, they do take you back.
01:50:02 Did you decide which ones you're going to keep and which ones you're going to leave for him?
01:50:08 Funny, Applejack. I can't seem to divide them.
01:50:15 They belong to both of us.
01:50:19 Guess I'll just leave them.
01:50:25 While I was listening downstairs there,
01:50:28 I could remember just as clear the first time I ever saw you.
01:50:32 Roger brought you into the bulletin.
01:50:35 I was cussing and pounding that old machine.
01:50:38 Gee, you didn't know we was all going to get to know each other so well then, did you?
01:50:44 Could you get the rest of the things out of the bedroom for me, please?

01:51:21 I don't blame you, Julie.
01:51:24 I don't blame you at all. You should leave me.
01:51:29 Why did you say it, honey? It's all true.
01:51:36 I haven't done any one of the big things I planned to do for you.
01:51:40 We're right where we started. Still struggling.
01:51:44 I've let you down all around, honey.
01:51:49 Well, all I needed to make it 100% was for you to leave me.
01:51:53 And I can't think of a reason in the world for you not to.
01:51:57 I'm licked, Julie.
01:52:01 You're not licked, Roger. It's just us.
01:52:05 We're licked as far as our being together is concerned.
01:52:09 When something really came along that hit us hard enough, we...
01:52:15 couldn't face it together.
01:52:18 I needed you an awful lot these last few days.
01:52:28 But you've been miles away.
01:52:31 I've been entirely alone.
01:52:34 Right here in this room with you.
01:52:37 I know, dear.
01:52:39 I know, dear.
01:52:40 I wish I could do something to help you two.
01:52:59 Just hasn't worked out.
01:53:03 It's worked out.
01:53:05 God did work out, Julie.
01:53:12 Things were wonderful until this happened to us.
01:53:17 I don't know, I...
01:53:19 I just haven't been able to think straight the last few days.
01:53:24 She was never sick before, and then...
01:53:27 then all of a sudden it was all over.
01:53:32 There was only some way that people could know a few days ahead what was gonna happen.
01:53:35 Yeah.
01:53:37 And the day before she was taken sick, she asked me for a quarter, and I...
01:53:41 I wouldn't let her have it.
01:53:43 She asked me to take her to the movies, and I said, "No, run along. I'm too busy."
01:53:47 I know.
01:53:49 It was the same with me.
01:53:51 I was trying on her angel costume, and...
01:53:54 she was so excited she couldn't stand still.
01:53:58 I scolded her.
01:54:01 I said, "I'll never try another dress on you again."
01:54:05 I never did.
01:54:09 Yeah?
01:54:21 Oh.
01:54:23 Hello.
01:54:26 Miss Oliver?
01:54:29 Yes.
01:54:30 It's a very strange thing, Mrs. Adams.
01:54:40 But we have a little boy who is just two years old.
01:54:45 Well, it's the oddest thing.
01:54:55 It's the exact image of the youngster you asked for when you first wrote to me.
01:54:59 You remember?
01:55:01 I have that old letter here in front of me now.
01:55:06 Curly hair, blue eyes, dimples.
01:55:12 This is strictly off the record.
01:55:16 For really, another couple has the right to see him first.
01:55:22 He's such a remarkable baby that...
01:55:25 I thought perhaps you and Mr. Adams might take a look.
01:55:30 Yes.
01:55:33 Oh, Miss Oliver.
01:55:37 Please don't let that other couple see him until we do, will you?
01:55:41 I won't, my dear.
01:55:44 Goodbye.
01:55:47 Goodbye.
01:55:48 Well, if he's only two years old, I'd better put up the kid again, hadn't I?
01:56:11 Yes.
01:56:12 I wouldn't want the little fellow falling down the stairs and breaking his arm.
01:56:16 Oh, I guess we'd better get out of the crib.
01:56:19 Now that he's two years old, he can sleep in this bed, can't he?
01:56:23 Oh, sure, sure.
01:56:25 We won't have to put the chairs around him.
01:56:28 Over in that corner, I could put a little electric tree.
