All language subtitles for Dr Quinn S04E22

The place looks fine.

Yes, I know.

I'm just doing a little.

A last minute.

You don't think I look too rough, do
you? You should get going to the

The train is going to be here any
minute.

There's nothing to worry about.

Who's worried?

Gentlemen, right up against there.

Wait.

I'm sorry, but I think it would be
easier to operate if it was right

here.

The devil is that? Oh, my new friend?

I bought it secondhand from the seller
in Denver.

You know how to work that thing?

I'll learn.

It's awful big.

You know, it'd look better over there.

train running schedule i didn't realize
i'd be so nervous it's exciting seeing

your best friend from college 10 years
is a long time

oh the flowers flowers take

it easy she's your friend remember

Side by side.

Ten years later.

As promised.

Ever since we made that vow at
commencement, I've often wondered if it

actually happen.

Look how big you are.

Oh, and you must be Sully.

Dr. Tilson?

He's even more handsome than you
described.

Let me see.

Brian.

And Colleen.

It is indeed a pleasure.

Hello, Dr. Telson.

Oh, please.

Miriam.

A decade later.

Can you believe it?

I didn't realize I'd be so nervous.

We'll go get your luggage.

I'm glad you could make the trip.

Oh, nonsense.

I wasn't about to have a pregnant woman
come all the way to San Francisco.

Let alone deprive this...

Charming little town of its only doctor.

Was it much trouble getting back from
the hospital?

My team can manage without me. Your
team?

Oh, good news, McCain.

I've just been appointed senior surgeon
of children's medicine at St. Luke's.

Senior surgeon?

Mariam, that's wonderful.

This is our transportation?

I'm afraid so.

But don't worry, the homestead isn't
far.

We've both come a long way haven't we?

We all knew it was very important, the
most difficult examination of the

semester. And Dr. Nagel, our professor,
pray that you never have an instructor

such as he, he stood at the lectern.

The room was deadly quiet as he read the
questions one by one.

When suddenly there arose from the
silence a noise, snoring, coming

from the seat directly beside me.

Ma, I've been studying all night.

You never heard such a cacophonous wail.

I was not that loud.

Oh, the lamps were rattling. And Dr.
Nagel, he stopped the examination, and

watched you with that face of his. Do
you remember that face he'd make? The

Nagel face? I still see it in my
nightmares.

So did you sleep through the whole test?

No. Thankfully, I was there to give her
a swift bump to the rib.

And she awoke somewhat startled, I might
add.

Did you get in trouble, Ma? Well, Dr.
Nagel was kind enough to let me complete

the examination.

Oh, she completed it all right. She
edged me out for the highest grade in

class.

As usual.

I made some additional inquiries
regarding that boy that you wrote me

What was his name? Anthony. Anthony.

I'm afraid I don't have any answers. His
symptoms are very perplexing.

How's he doing?

He fluctuates between attacks.

Lately, he's been feeling well.

So difficult with children.

You want so much to help them, to take
their pain away.

Rachel had a respiratory infection last
month, but she's feeling fine now.

We treated her at the hospital.

She has a birthday coming.

Four next month.

And Robert Jr. will be seven in August.

Where has the time gone?

Robert.

He's well.

Very busy.

How is it working together in the
hospital?

We're quite a pair dashing about the
halls.

You are so bright out here.

You know, I often look up at them,
remember our dreams.

To be the finest physician in Boston, to
be chief of surgery, Philadelphia

Hospital.

Things change.

That's Wolf. I know it's Wolf. Help, get
him.

Don't worry, he's on our side.

the barren wilderness, scratching the

of a wolf.

As they said, things change.

in the best interest of the Colorado
Territory.

If you dress like you lie, you must look
like something. Can you imagine a

fellow like this pretending to...

Morning,

Lauren. Darling.

I need some oil for my press.

The lever's stuck.

I'm not surprised to hear that, being as
how you bought it secondhand and all.

You're out of sugar.

What's that?

Sugar, you're out. You need to reorder.

I've been busy.

Where's my order book?

Right here.

It's always been.

Good morning, Miss Dorothy, Mr. Bray.
Good morning, Colleen, Becky.

How's your mom getting on with her
friend?

They're having a wonderful time. They're
up practically all night talking.

Well, I hope they both have time to do
an interview for the Gazette. I'll show

you all. What can I do for you girls?

We're going to make a special pie for
Dr. Tilson.

So we're going to need flour and sugar.

Sugar. Thanks for the oil.

Good luck with that press of yours
there.

Piece of junk is what it is if you ask
me.

Sugar.

Here, I got some of these gumdrops here.

They're a little old, but...

You can just scrape the sugar right off
them.

Give them to you for half price.

I hit the wagon for Ma and Dr. Tilton.

Thanks.

They said for us to go on ahead.

We'll be coming to town later.

They seem like pretty good friends,
don't you think?

Yep.

You ever have a best friend like that
when you were growing up?

Me and my friend Daniel, we was pretty
close.

The one you helped out at the mine.

Both came out west together when we was
young.

Even saved my life once.

He a lot like you?

Some ways.

We both like it better out in the woods
than the city.

But we did our share of fighting, too.

About what?

He was always hoping to strike it rich.

Sometimes felt like he was...

Competing with me for jobs and things,
but she was always trying to do me one

better Kind of like mom dr. Tilson

How'd you grow up so fast they see

the schoolhouse

After examining him with a sphygmograph,
I realized that his blood pressure had

increased. A sphygmograph?

Yes. Have you heard of it?

Yes, of course. I've been trying to
obtain one for months. It's been very

difficult. Oh, we have several at the
hospital. I could send you one if you'd

like. They're very useful.

Dr.

Miriam Telson?

This is Cloud Dance. Very dear friend.

I'm pleased to meet you.

Thank you very much.

I've brought the herbs.

Scarlet, Mallow, and Aspenwort.

I will try to bring Golden Seal on my
next visit.

Thank you, Claudette.

No need.

Please.

You're doing me a great service.

It's very difficult to find these herbs,
let alone purchase them.

Goodbye.

Wolves? Indians?

I must say, Michaela, I'm impressed with
how well you've adapted.

That man has taught me a great deal.

And these herbs have medicinal
properties I've found very useful.

Aspen bark?

From a tree?

I find it helps with coughs and fevers.

I've not only administered it many
times, I've even taken it myself.

Fascinating. I doubt I would be so
courageous.

You? The girl who volunteered to drink
that concoction Professor Abbott was

promoting? I thought it would help my
grade, and I vomited all night.

Well, you had the courage to drink it
when no one else could.

Yes, I did.

So this is your clinic.

It's not much, I know, but I try to keep
it clean.

Oh, it's inspiring, McKenna.

It has such a practical charm about it.

And where do you perform surgery?

Right here.

Here?

Really? Well, it's a little difficult
with the dust from the street and the

lighting, but I don't have much of a
choice for now, anyway.

You've done well, Michaela.

Ma?

Becky, what's wrong?

My stomach hurts.

She threw up in school today.

Is it sharp like knives or dull or
anything?

Knives. Have you had this pain before?

No.

Does it hurt here?

How about now?

Intestinal blockage, perhaps?

There doesn't appear to be any fever.

It could be gastroenteritis.

Perhaps, but if it's a blockage, we'll
need to... Have you had anything to eat

recently?

Well, a couple of hours ago, I had some
of my mom's chicken.

That could do it.

Do you have any Dr.

Gordon's cordial?

I'll get it.

Go.

All right, now lie back if you can.

And you should start feeling better
right away.

Do you feel it?

I'm sure it's gastroenteritis, brought
on by common food poisoning.

It's often misdiagnosed.

We see a lot of this at the hospital.

But if it's not food poisoning, there's
always a risk of a rupture or

peritonitis. It's starting to go away.

The pain?

So quickly?

You just lie there until you start
feeling normal again.

Am I going to be alright?

The worst is over.

Thank you, Miriam.

What was it this time?

She thought she saw a bear out the
window. A bear?

It was a laundry tub.

I put up quite a fight, but I think I
scared it off.

She reminds me of you when you first
came to town.

I wasn't that out of place, was I?

Back in school, we were inseparable,
relying on each other's talents.

Miriam excelled at surgical techniques.

Her suturing skills were amazing.

She once stitched up a large gash on my
knee after a fall.

I've never seen a scar on your knee.

Exactly.

My forte was diagnosis, observing
symptoms and determining illness.

Today, with Becky, I could have sworn I
felt a blockage.

The pain subsided so quickly.

But Miriam has seen hundreds of these
cases in her hospital, and out here I

so few.

I don't make you less of a doctor.

I'm sure her diagnosis was accurate.

Sounds like another bear to me.

seen Becky today?

No, I haven't, but Colleen saw her at
school and said she was feeling fine.

Oh, good.

Good.

Michaela, I'm sorry if I overstepped my
bounds yesterday.

Nonsense. I was happy to have you there
to consult.

Side by side.

Just like the old days.

Dorothy?

Oh.

Good afternoon, Michaela.

Dorothy, I'd like you to meet my friend,
Dr. Miriam Tellson.

Dorothy Jennings.

Very nice to meet you.

Oh, the pleasure's mine.

Would you like to join us?

Oh, well, just a minute.

I'm busy trying to get my press up and
going.

Dorothy's the editor of our town's
newspaper, The Gazette. A woman editor.

impressive. Oh, thank you.

Would you like to see a copy of last
week's edition?

Oh, thank you.

As a matter of fact, I was hoping to do
an interview with you before you go back

home. Oh, certainly. I'd love to.

I'm in the process of expanding.

I'll take pages, isn't that what you
said?

Oh, well, give or take a page or two.

Dorothy's always after a good story.

Her journalistic skills are quite
impressive.

She got me to tell her the recipe for my
secret pecan pie.

Pie? Wouldn't take no for an answer.

Well, a good journalist must be
persistent and know how to bargain.

She traded for... Free advertising.

Very clever.

I really must get going.

You know, a piece of pie sounds
wonderful right now. Do you have any?

right up.

Absolutely charming.

You again.

Good boy.

Miriam?

Afternoon.

Where's Michaela? She's taking a nap.

She gets tired easy these days.

Won't be much longer now.

Yeah.

Horses?

I'm afraid I've not had that particular
pleasure.

Come on.

What?

I can't believe I'm riding a horse.

You're doing real good. Just loosen up
on the reins a bit.

Where are we going?

Nowhere. We're just riding.

Wonderful.

So, how do you like being married to a
woman, Doctor?

No complaints.

Between the household and the children
and her practice, how does she manage

Same as you.

What is it?

Right over there. Come here.

Oh, no.

Come down here every afternoon to feed.

You brought me out here to see this,
didn't you?

Dorothy?

Oh, hello, Lauren.

I, uh, just wondered if you'd, uh, be
interested in joining me at Grace's for

little supper.

No, thank you. Not exactly presentable.

Giving you trouble still, huh?

No, no, no. I'm getting it. I mean, I
just have this one thing left to fix.

Too complicated.

Just nothing seems to work.

My old press didn't give me trouble.

And this room, it just takes up too much
space. I can hardly get around it.

Well, I'd be happy to take it off your
hands if you'd like.

I'm sure I can find a buyer for it.

I'll let you know.

I studied hard, day and night.

We were poor, but my father was forever
the optimist.

He used to tell me, the only reason you
can't do something is because you don't

think you can.

How did you get into medical school if
you couldn't afford it?

Well, by studying hard and earning a
scholarship from the Catholic Church.

Most of the women at the college were
from wealthy families.

And they all look down upon us women of
questionable stature.

All that is, except for Michaela.

Now you're a senior surgeon at a big
hospital.

Children's medicine, mind you.

Ma, did you know that Miriam has a whole
team of interns that follow her around?

What is it called? Grand Rounds. But I'm
not exactly the center of attention,

Colleen. I defer to the chief of
surgery.

A considerable achievement, nonetheless.

I'll bet if you wanted a sarsaparilla
while you were operating, there'd be a

nurse standing right there to hand it to
you. It's been known to happen.

And they have five operating theaters.

Five. Well, a big city needs a big
hospital.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to go there and
to see what it all looks like?

Perhaps someday.

Well, what about this summer?

I mean, if it's all right with Miriam, I
can go to San Francisco to visit and

stay with Pa and Lillian.

It's, um, it's a long way to go,
Colleen.

Oh, well, you can come with me.

I don't think so. With the baby coming,
I doubt I'll be going anywhere.

Well, then I'll go alone.

I'm old enough now, and with the train,
it'll only take a couple of days.

I don't think now is a good time.

Please, Ma.

Colleen.

We'll make it another time coming.

Mariam and I used to lie out on the
grass, look up at the stars, making our

dreams for the future.

Could we let Colleen go to San
Francisco?

I don't see no harm in it.

Why? It's so far away in such a big
city.

Colleen has seen big cities before.

Miriam's hospital.

From what she described, it's quite
overwhelming.

Far cry from what I have here in
Colorado Springs.

It might do Colleen some good to see
something like that.

I know.

I want to expose it to new medical
events.

Then what's the problem?

I'm afraid, I suppose.

Of what?

She might not want to come back.

Here?

It appears that you've strained it.

We've endured this printing press.

So much for a good deed.

Well, you need to take a nice hot bath
and stay in bed for a few days. You need

to get some rest.

Yes, I do.

Thanks, Dr. Mike.

I could use some rest myself.

It is really kicking.

I'll bet it's a boy. You're carrying
exactly the way I did when I had Robert

How do you do it? Do what?

I mean, adopting three children wasn't
very difficult.

Matthew was almost of age, and Colleen
was very helpful with Brian, but... With

the baby coming up, I'm just... How did
you manage when your children were born?

One word.

Nannies.

I often lie awake at night, wondering...

If I'll have enough time for my practice
and my baby.

What kind of mother I'll be.

Still the same old Michaela.

Always putting such enormous pressure on
yourself.

You're a fine mother, Michaela. And this
is one very lucky baby.

I've been thinking.

If you'd like Colleen to come to San
Francisco, I think it would benefit her.

Yes.

I'd love to have her.

I'll let you know when my schedule eases
up.

She thinks the world of you.

And so do I.

Are you all right, Miss Dorothy?

Oh, Colleen.

You don't happen to know anybody who's
looking to buy a printing press, do you?

You don't want it anymore?

I don't know what I was thinking.

I should have just stayed put with the
old press in the corner of Lawrence's

door.

You can't give up now, Miss Dorothy. Not
after you've come this far.

A little too far, I'm afraid.

I bit off more than I can chew.

I can't do it.

The only reason you can't do it is
because you don't think you can.

Colleen, I was just closing up for the
day.

Where's Miriam?

Brian's giving her a tour of the hot
space.

We'll meet back at the house later.

I, uh... I spoke with Miriam about you
coming to San Francisco for the day.

I told her it was fine with me.

Really? Well, she'll let us know when
it's a good time.

Thanks, Ma.

I'm sorry I said no so quickly.

I suppose it was just envious.

Envious?

Big city hospital.

Quite prestigious.

I wouldn't blame you if you had dreams
of working in one someday.

I had the same dreams when I was your
age.

Now I have the clinic.

And with it, new dreams.

Like what?

Like someday seeing both of our names on
that sign.

Dr. Mike!

Becky?

Becky?

Did you get your stomach again?

I'll get Miriam.

Let's get you into the toilet.

Does it still hurt?

Not so bad now. It's starting to go
away.

Good.

Just rest.

I don't want to pain again.

Got your enteritis again?

No, the pain went away on its own
without any medicine.

The symptoms are clear.

The attacks come intermittently and then
quickly subside. And I'm definitely

feeling blockage.

Everything points to an intentional
obstruction of some sort.

The pain's gone, but it'll probably
recur in a day or so.

I think we should operate.

Determine the cause. No.

How's her pulse?

It's steady.

Marion, we must... I'm sure it's nothing
serious.

Perhaps, but if it... We can't make any
rash decisions.

Marion, something is obstructing her
intestine.

You're always so quick to assume the
worst. I just want to make sure. So do

I want to make sure that we don't cut
that child open without sufficient

This is not food poisoning.

And this is not the time to impress me
with your surgical skills.

What?

Mom, should I get the clinical... Not
now, Colleen!

Miriam?

Miriam!

How dare you shatter my daughter that
way? How dare you question my abilities?

I have never questioned your abilities.
Always the right diagnosis. Not once did

you listen to another point of view.
Well, that's not true. Everyone must

how much better you are. This is not
about me. It's always about you. And

we forget, you're there quickly to
remind us. What are you talking about?

perfect house, the perfect husband, the
perfect career.

All handed to you on that silver platter
of yours.

I worked hard for what I have. No,
Michaela.

I worked hard.

I had to sew and iron and cook and
study.

I didn't have a rich father giving me
everything I needed.

This is how you felt all these years.

I'm sorry, Michaela.

But I'm tired of competing with you.

Resting. Family's upstairs with her now.

When are you going to operate it?

When it's ready here.

I only wish Miriam were here to assist
me.

Packing her things.

Taking the next train out.

We fought.

All friends do.

But good friends make things right
again.

I always thought she was disappointed
with me when I left Boston to move out

here.

As if I had somehow failed.

She was disappointed, or you?

I can't do this without you, Miriam.

Yes, you can.

I'm asking for your help.

I can't, Michaela.

You've performed this kind of surgery
many more times than I have. No, I

haven't.

I haven't performed surgery since
medical school.

What?

When we got married,

Robert gave me a choice.

My career or him.

I don't practice medicine anymore.

But you once did.

I want you to be there with me, Miriam.

Need a better view.

Hold the retraction tighter.

Is that better?

Yes.

There.

Fabulous.

What's that?

The intestines twisted causing blockage.

We'll remove the affected portion.

It's going to be all right.

Excellent diagnosis, Dr. Quinn.

Bleeder. Bleeder.

Got it.

There, I still lost her.

Are you close?

I could have told him.

No, I couldn't.

Clean air, wide open spaces.

I could get used to this.

Robert was embarrassed by my career
ambitions.

He convinced me that it couldn't be
done.

That no one would take a woman seriously
as a doctor.

He's the one who was appointed senior
surgeon.

It's his accomplishments I wrote up in
my letters.

Not mine.

I came out here expecting to find you
wallowing in some...

filthy backwoods town.

I thought the stories that you wrote in
your letters were lies.

Much like mine.

I was relying on you to ease my guilt.

To make me feel better about the choices
that I had made.

back to medicine if that's what you
want.

You could open a practice.

No.

That part of my life is over.

The die's been cast.

Only if you say it has.

There are still plenty of choices left
to make, Miriam.

Dreams don't have to end.

How are you feeling?

Tired.

You just sleep.

Let your body heal.

It won't be long now and you'll be back
on your feet. Good as new.

Am I going to have a scar?

Don't worry.

It won't even show.

Mark?

Oh.

I guess you come about the press, huh?

Yeah. Well, I'll see if I can get Robert
E. and the Reverend to bring it on over

here.

I'm sure I can find someone to buy it.

What?

Paper. I figured out how to work it, but
I used up most of my stock in the

process. I need to buy some more.

Paper?

If you got it.

I got plenty of paper.

I was so nervous about coming here.

Now, I hate to leave.

I want you to wire me the moment that
baby is born.

Dr. Jensen!

I'm sorry, I never got around to doing
an interview, but I hope this will

suffice.

Visiting physician assists in daring
operation, saving local girl.

I look forward to reading it. Thank you.
Have a nice trip.

You.

Miriam tells him, scratching the ears of
a wolf, how things change.

Bag's loaded.

Thank you, Sally.

You're going to be a wonderful father.

I know it.

And you, soon to be the big brother,
take care of the little one.

And your mom.

I will.

Colleen, I'd still love for you to come
to San Francisco.

I'd like that.

So, are we going to have to wait another
ten years?

I hope not Perhaps we can work together
again Side by

side Thank

you

Ma, do you think Mary and Reva go back
to practicing medicine?

I don't know, Colleen.

But whatever she does, I know she'll
make the right choice.

Don't you?
