All language subtitles for Dr Quinn s02e16.eng

It says here, children of all ages,
available for immediate adoption.

Mostly American -born orphans. Mostly.

Let me read, will you?

Lacking in guidance and education.

Sounds like a sorry bunch. You got it.

But most of them ain't even orphans.

If he's back east overflowing, so they
ship him out to us. Yeah, well, what are

we supposed to do with him?

Put him back on the train.

We ought to take a look at him.

I'm the Reverend Timothy Johnson. I
believe you're looking for me.

Hello, children.

Where'd they come from?

From the New York Children's Mission.
Are these some of the orphans that come

on the train?

Yes. I've signed on as volunteers.

You asked for them.

That's right.

And I'm going to be taking care of them
until they can be placed into proper

homes. Why, that's very kind of you,
Reverend.

I'm going to write a little piece on
them for the Gazette.

What's your name, sweetheart?

Jennifer. You can turn us around, drive
them right back to where they come from.

Lauren, they come all the way from New
York. Last thing we need is a bunch of

vagrants, pickpockets, and thieves
dumped on us.

They're children.

They probably come from the jails, most
of them, or else they find them

wandering the streets like dogs.

Lauren's right.

We don't want nobody else's calf dog.

These children have been entrusted to
me, and I say they stay.

I say we send them back.

It ain't up to you, Lauren.

These children aren't going anywhere
until we find good homes for them.

Seems they've been neglected, haven't
they?

Yes, I see some signs of malnutrition.

Apparently the conditions were less than
sanitary.

Well, we've got three cases of scurvy,
two of anemia, and I'm afraid this looks

like it might be wicked.

No.

My brother don't like nobody messing
with his legs. What happened to him?

He got it crushed while he was mooring
coal in the dock.

He worked on the dogs?

That's quite a cough you've got there,
young man.

You'll need some medicine.

They're all going to need baths and some
clean clothes.

I'm going to give them all a dose of cod
liver oil, some iron and some quinine

pills.

What they really need is sunshine and
some proper food.

Eggs, meat and fresh vegetables.

Where do you intend for them to stay? I
plan on converting the church.

There are no proper cooking or washing
facilities, not to mention suitable

I'll make do.

No, they've been on that train for over
a month.

What they need is a hot meal and see
what a real home is like.

Oh, please don't cry, dear. Please.

Help me with dinner. Well, what are we
going to make? Well, how about chicken?

don't want to make chickens for all
these people. Well, what about the

potatoes? We haven't had enough of them.

That's the nice thing about you.

No matter how much you give, there's
always more where that came from. Why,

thank you, Reverend.

Thank you for helping with the children.

I'll see you tomorrow.

You never used to be too tired for me.

It's just not a good night.

I'll make it a good night.

You don't mean it.

No.

It's just... I ain't feeling very well.

I'm dedicating...

You seem to recollect you're not feeling
well the last three times I've been

wanting to be with you.

I think it's my target.

I think it's your memory.

You forgot who you belong to.

You're mine, Myra.

You can go forget that.

You're yelling about it. Can't get any
sleep in there.

Then try sleeping inside on the floor
with a pack of kids tossing and snoring.

Children? What is going on?

She took my towel. How am I supposed to
wash up without a towel? Fine, I won't

wash up. Don't have any clean clothes
anyway.

You gave all ours to the orphans to
wear. I'm going to get some sleep.

Me too.

They can't sleep in the house because of
all those kids. Look, why don't I go

inside and make us all a nice breakfast?
We already added milk and bacon.

Look, I know it's crowded and we keep
running out of things, but don't worry.

It's only temporary.

The Reverend and I are going to take the
children to the church today and

interview some families and find them
homes.

Have some patience at home, Anthony.

Thank you all for coming.

I think you all know these are the
orphans from the New York Children's

They're all in need of and deserve good
homes.

So all interested parties, please step
forward.

Slim pickings, if you ask me.

They got a clean bill of health?

I've examined them all, and the ones
with ailments are being properly

Well, which one's got ailments? We don't
want no sick child.

She looks healthy.

She prefers not to be separated from her
brother.

I don't want two of them. I got enough
mouths to feed already.

Besides, he's a cripple. Can't get any
work out of him.

What are you doing? Back in her day.

Back in her... And her hair. Delight.

It could be us up there.

It was.

You any good at housework?

Cooking or sewing?

Suppose we could train her.

Sounds like you're looking for a
servant, not a daughter.

Has she been baptized?

Don't matter to me if she ain't been
baptized.

How old are you?

Fifteen. Hank, I don't even want to
inquire as to your intentions.

Intending on adopting her?

Absolutely not.

Dr. Mike, I hate to say this, but...

None of these orphans are going to get
adopted if you keep going like this. But

this is disrespectful and humiliating.
It's wrong.

I agree.

First time I saw something like this,
we'll get a slave auction. You've got to

stop this.

I don't like it either, Grace, but the
folks in New York wrote me that this is

the way it's done.

Well, there has to be a better way.

Excuse me.

I would like to specify that this is not
a cattle auction.

These children need homes.

Loving homes.

They need to be taken in as part of the
family.

I'm gone.

Won't you consider sharing your love
with them?

What are you going to do now, Ma?

Not quite sure.

Don't you worry.

We'll find a way.

So then, where are they going to stay?

We'll take them home with us.

I tell you, I ain't interested in these
wicked little waifs.

I don't even like children.

If you ask me, I'd rather raise piglets.

Much cleaner, less noise, and after
they're grown, you can eat them.

I'm sure they're nice children. They
look so sweet.

Especially the little girls.

And I'd love to take them.

But I've already raised three children
of my own, and I don't want to start all

over again.

I'm sorry, Michaela.

A white child?

Not even in Boston, Dr. Mike.

Well, something like that would cost...
Well, it ain't fair to us, and it sure

as heck ain't fair to the child.

But, Dad, we just got married, and we'd
like to wait a while, then start our own

family.

Oh, I'd love to take one, but I got my
nephew Louis.

What kind of human beings won't take in
an orphan?

Those poor children have been going from
town to town.

How terrible it must have been for them
not to be chosen to be the last ones.

Everyone had an excuse.

Not easy raising a child.

It wasn't easy for me either, taking on
Charlotte's children.

But when I was called upon, I did it.

What about yourself?

Why don't you take one?

You know the kind of life I lead.

It's not meant for a child.

Well, the Reverend would take over,
wouldn't he, Reverend?

Take them all.

Well, you may have to.

Times just ain't warming up to them, and
it's about time you realized that and

stopped trying to save everything.

Well, someone has to do it.

Why does it always have to be you?

Morning. Jake?

Something I can do for you, Reverend?

Yes.

Yes, I'd like a shave.

All right.

Who is it?

Who's who?

The woman.

I beg your pardon.

I've been in this business 17 years, and
I can tell you no man ever shaves his

beard, unless it's for a woman.

No, I just... Thought it'd be a nice
change, that's all.

Uh -huh.

Wouldn't be that big old redhead over at
the feed store, would it? No, I think

that Quigley girl is kind of sweet on
you. Did you ever see the way she looks

you all, moony -eyed and sure?

It's really not what you think,
gentlemen.

I haven't had time for socializing.
What, with the orphans in town?

Dr. Mike and I have been so busy.

Dr. Mike.

I'll get another.

Grandma gave me.

It'll never be the same.

And I can't find my favorite ball.

Think what if I stole it and Jennifer
borrowed one of my dresses without even

asking. Nick almost burned down the bar
in smoking. I believe some tolerance is

in order. What do you mean?

Well, put yourself in their shoes.

Do you realize how fortunate you are,
how many things you have?

These children have nothing.

No home, no toys, no grandmother to give
them presents.

I believe you could do it.

It's to be more understanding.

All right, Mom.

We'll share.

Except I want my ball back.

You wait for me here.

What can I do for you, little lady?

You're the man from yesterday.

That's right.

Sorry about what happened.

Oh, my.

What I had was a pretty fair proposition
for you.

That's what I came to talk to you about.

I see.

So, uh, I'm interested in coming to work
for me.

You know what kind of work I'm talking
about.

Entertaining.

What do you know about entertaining?

I know enough.

All right.

How much is the cut?

Half of what you bring in.

Get food, roof over your head.

Sunday's off.

Sounds fair.

Of course, if you want, you could always
wait around for Michaela to scrounge up

some folks for you.

When can I start?

Back tonight.

Hey, Reverend.

Dr. Mike.

Something's different about you.

I don't know what it is, but... Oh, my
goodness. Your beard, you shaved it off.

I thought it'd be a nice change.

Oh, well, yeah,

it's very attractive.

If that's the proper thing to say to a
member of the clergy.

I don't think God would mind.

Come on, children.

Are you ready? We're about to leave.

We're not going.

We got chores.

We got chores to wait.

Don't feel like it.

Well, you love swimming.

Not today, Dr. Mike.

Very well.

See you later. Bye.

What's she doing?

Making horseshoes.

What's in their shoes?

Take their feet.

One of my friends back in New York never
even had no shoes.

Where you from?

Yeah.

Miss it? No.

It's hard when you're not like everybody
else, ain't it?

When you're different.

People look at you and that's all they
see is the difference.

They don't know, do they?

No, they don't know.

Can I see that?

Keep it. You see, it brings you good
luck.

This is Jennifer.

I want you to fix her up.

Get her a nice dress, some makeup.

Make her look real pretty.

Sure, honey.

Wish I could say I was glad to

see you here, but I ain't.

Truth is...

I wish you hadn't come back.

Why?

I don't think you know what goes on
here.

Well, I know it's a job.

And I need a job. I gotta look after my
brother.

He's a cripple.

Well, it ain't just a job.

It's a life.

Not a bad life.

Is that what he told you?

He did, didn't he?

Well. It ain't him who's living it.

All I know is there ain't no one else
out there who wants me.

And Hank does.

Yeah.

And he'll have you, too.

Because you'll belong to him.

Do you know what that means?

I didn't when I first came here.

But I do now.

And I just wish there had been somebody
there to tell me that.

So, evening, everybody.

Where's Dr. Mike?

She went to Reverend and them kids, and
she ain't come home yet.

All she cares about anymore are the
orphans.

She wouldn't even want to be here with
us.

She's always busy.

I don't even think she likes us anymore.

She likes those kids better.

Brian? It's true, Matthew.

Yeah, we'd rather live with you.

Can we stay with you and Ingrid after
you get married?

Get inside.

Good.

Let's go to sleep.

Thank you, Reverend.

Please, call me Timothy.

Timothy.

It was a wonderful day.

Yes, it was.

The children really enjoyed themselves.

You're very good with them.

I'm not as good as you.

You are awful special.

I always thought so, but now... Now I
know so.

And I was thinking, these children are
so deserving.

And I find myself wishing that there was
a way that they could have a real home.

With a real family.

And I think there may be a way.

How?

Marry me.

I beg your pardon?

I know, it's sudden, but...

We do make a good team.

Yes, well, but I... I would be a good
husband to you, Michaela.

I would take care of your children and
these children, too.

I don't know what to say.

Then don't say anything.

Just think about it.

Here, let me just... Don't look at me.

I just want to clean it.

Does it ever hurt?

Sometimes, even the part that's not
there.

Well, that's quite common, actually.

They call it phantom pain.

Even the doctors don't understand why
that happens.

It's normal.

It'll fade with time.

Dr. Mackey, we need to talk.

Matthew, will you wait outside, please?

Sorry, I forgot how busy you were.

Guess I should have made an appointment.

I'll be right back.

Matthew?

Tried to catch you this morning.

Left earlier than I did. I had work to
do.

You always have work to do.

My work is very important to me.

And last night, was that what you call
working?

What are you talking about?

I saw you with the Reverend.

I'm not quite sure what you're referring
to.

You kissed him.

What are you doing kissing him?

I don't see that this is any of your
business.

What are you doing, spying on me? It's
my business when my brother and sister

want to come live with me when I get
married because they feel like you don't

want them anymore.

What?

They feel like you put everybody else
ahead of them.

Did they say that?

You think I'd make that up?

They trusted you.

We all trusted you.

I just heard some rather disturbing news
from your brother.

He said you don't want to live with me
anymore. Is that true?

Seems like maybe you don't want us
anymore.

You're always busy.

I'm merely trying to help you often.

I didn't mean for you to feel like this.
Why did you?

Feel sorry for them. They have no one.

I wouldn't have to pick them in.

Is that why you took us in?

Because you had to?

Because you felt sorry for us? Of course
not.

But it wasn't because you loved us.

I learned to love you.

You learned to love us?

Come on, Brian. Where are you going?

We're walking.

I just mean that when your mother... You
couldn't exactly say no.

Well, I never thought about having
children.

Well, now you'll take any old orphan.

Well, maybe I'm not enough.

Maybe you need a mother and a father.
That's not what you used to say.

Well, maybe I was wrong.

Everyone knows I'm not getting any
younger, and... Well, I thought I might

until the right man came along.

Maybe he's been under my nose the whole
time.

After all, it didn't make perfect sense.

What makes perfect sense?

The reverend asked me to marry him.

He's a good man, a stable man.

Well, the best thing about it is we can
adopt all the orphans and be one big

happy family.

Where are

you going, Myra?

Not there.

Well, I'm losing money here.

Maybe we're going to have to consider
working longer hours.

If that's what you want.

Of course, that new girl will take up
some of the slack.

I don't know if there's going to be a
new girl, Hank.

You've talked her out of it now, have
you?

No, of course not. Well, what is it?

Feeling a little jealous?

Feeling like she might just take your
place?

No, it ain't that.

See, if she does come to work here,
maybe I wouldn't need you no more.

What are you talking about?

Maybe I'd just tear up that contract of
yours.

You mean that?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

Horace?

Myra. Horace, I just heard some news
that you're gonna believe.

What, honey?

Hank's gonna let me on my contract.

Oh, that's wonderful!

Wait a minute.

That ain't just because he's a nice
fella.

No, it ain't.

He wants that young girl Jennifer to
work for him.

The orphan girl?

She's taken my place.

Well, the thing is, she wants to do it.

Mara, we've waited all this time.

It's just so far you can go to save a
person.

If she wants to do it, who are we to say
anything?

The decision's up to her, I suppose.

I suppose so.

I love you, Mom.

What

are

you doing in here?

Nothing.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

What do you think you're going to buy in
here?

Nothing.

How about a dictionary? Maybe you'll
learn a couple of new words.

Why don't you just go bother somebody
else, all right?

What do you got there?

Nothing. Nothing?

Don't look like nothing to me. It looks
like something you didn't pay for. Come

back here! Come back here, you little
thief!

Told your mother they was little
criminals.

What happened?

Mr. Bray don't like the orphans.

How do you feel about them, Brian?

I don't know.

Yes, I have to like them if they're
going to be my brothers and sisters.

Brothers and sisters?

How's that?

Paul's going to marry the reverend and
adopt him.

It says here that Dr.

Mike and the reverend are engaged.

Engaged? Eh, don't say that. Let me see.
You can't read.

Give it to me.

I'm with Kayla and the preacher.

Who'd have figured?

Not me.

On the other hand, it makes perfect
sense.

What's going on?

Dr. Mike's engaged.

Well, no.

Then you're not marrying him.

Well, he's asked me, yes, and I am
considering it.

Have you considered what this will mean
to other people in your life?

Like who?

Like your own kids. They think they're
losing you.

They'll be gaining a father.

And a dozen brothers and sisters.

Well, a lot of people have large
families.

Those kids have problems. You can't just
bandage them and fix them. You can't

save the world. I can try. Someone has
to take responsibility.

First, it was that cowboy's baby. Then
Hank's son.

Now these orphans.

I'm just wondering, what's missing in
you that you've got to fill it up with

everybody else? There is nothing missing
in me. Is that what the Reverend tells

you? Well, at least he's willing to take
in homeless children.

Do you love them?

How dare you ask me that?

You, who have told me that...

That you're not ready to love anyone.
You who comes and goes as he pleases.

who never so much has offered any kind
of commitment to me and my children.

Do you love them?

I am very fond of the Reverend.

And he's made me a proposal that no one,
including you, has cared to do.

And I don't take that lightly.

Marriage is all that you want.

And you found the right man.

with a ton of a gun. Let me save you the
trouble.

I'll give them to you for free.

You mean it? Sure.

The only catch is you gotta smoke them.

Now.

Right here.

Juan, you like them so much? Smoke it.

What if I don't want to?

Ain't you manning them?

Sure am.

One you like them too much smoke another
one too.

Where'd you learn how to smoke?

Jail Oh, yeah in jail stealing

Dorothy Jennings.

Oh, Michaela.

Whatever possessed you to print such a
story without checking with me? I did

check with you. You said it was true.

Well, then he asked me, but I didn't say
that I said yes.

But you didn't say you said no.

What are you doing to this poor child?

This poor child stole from me. Why did
he care what he did? He should not be

smoking.

Don't you worry.

That boy will never smoke again.

So help calm your stomach.

I'm looking for Josh.

Someday you're going to appreciate being
different, being special.

When you're young, it feels good to fit
in, so...

I made this for you.

Help you stand on your own two feet.

What's he going to do?

He's going to walk.

Brother, huh?

I can't believe you don't need crutches
no more.

But I need you.

Stick with him.

Find him a real home.

Too late. I already got a contract to
pay.

No, not anymore.

I'll take care of that.

Hank, what are you doing?

I brought that for you.

Hank, I've got something to tell you.

You know that girl?

You're coming back.

Got a contract.

No.

I'm staying on extra in her place.

I know why you're doing this.

Why?

Must be because you got feelings for me.

No, Hank, that ain't it.

I just don't want her to go through what
I did.

What do you mean?

Remember how you said I belonged to you?

Well, you're wrong.

I love Hor.

I might work for you, but I belong to
him.

He ain't any kind of man.

Not like me.

What kind of man makes his woman spend
the night with other men?

It's different, Myra. It's business.

I went to all this trouble to show you.

You don't know what love is.

Michaela. We were just celebrating.

And Grace was kind enough to cook for
us. Reverend, I need to talk with you.

What is it?

We're wrong with what we're trying to
do.

I can't marry you.

Flattered as I am by your offer, it
would be for the wrong reason.

But I have grown to love you.

But I don't love you.

Maybe in time. No.

I'm sorry.

And the children.

Without you, I don't know if... You
can't take them all yourself.

Well, maybe one of them.

Well, which one would you choose?

Too late for that.

We can't save those children.

The best we can do is to make them
stronger, help them to help themselves.

I didn't realize it until I saw that boy
with his new leg.

They'll have to be told.

We'll have to hold them together.

Children.

Children.

Dr. Quinn and I would just like to say
what a joy it's been to have had you

here.

And we wish with all our hearts that...
We wish with all our hearts that we

could have found homes for you.

But for some reason, it just wasn't
meant to be.

I'll telegraph the Reverend Wilkes in
Pueblo.

He'll take good care of you.

You're all very special.

And I know that wherever you settle, the
families who take you in will be the

truly fortunate ones.

I owe you all an apology.

You were right about everything you
said.

I was terrified when Charlotte asked me
to take you.

I tried to talk her out of it. I said I
didn't know the first thing about

raising children.

But it was more than that.

You're a stranger.

I've always been so absorbed in my books
and my schooling, I've never made

friends easily.

I didn't know how to get to know you.

How to love you.

But it happened.

And now you've turned into the best
thing in my life.

They're just like our saints and ma.

We can stay.

We can make it work.

They'll be moving on.

I would have loved to give them more,
but the truth is they needed more than I

could give.

What I have, I want to give to you.

We're still learning about being a
family.

What about the reverend?

He understands.

Now, tomorrow, I thought we might all go
on a picnic.

Do some fishing.

What clinic?

I thought I'd take the day off. But we
got chores.

I don't think it would hurt to miss
chores for one day.

Do you feel it?

Yeah. I think it'll hurt a bit.
