All language subtitles for Dr Quinn s06e16

Kayla, I've been waiting to talk to you.

I've got to call a council meeting.

Well, what about?

There's Chinaman moving into town.

Yesterday, I bet a dozen showed up, and
today, probably three times that many.

Before you know it, the whole place will
be overrun with them.

Well, what do you expect the town
council to do?

Make them leave.

Well, they have a right to be here, the
same as everyone else.

That's just it.

They ain't like everyone else, are they?

I'll see you after school. Bye.

And she wants to know what's inside
every cupboard and every drawer.

She's so curious about everything.

She takes after her big sister.

Excuse

me,

please, for the interruption.

I am looking for the doctor.

I'm Dr.

Quinn.

You are the doctor?

Yes.

Well, please, come in.

Is there something I can do for you?

My name is Oh Jin Young.

How do you do?

These are my daughters, Colleen and
Katie.

I was not expecting a woman doctor.

Well, most people are so surprised by
that.

I came to ask for your help.

I am not quite certain how to say this.

Are you feeling ill? No.

I am fine.

However, some of my grandfather's
patients... Your grandfather's a doctor?

Yes. He's a fine doctor.

But I am afraid some of his patients are
very ill and are not responding to the

herbs and needles. Needles? I
wondered... What are you doing in this

I came to see the American doctor.

After I forbade it.

Please tell the doctor.

A thousand apologies for my grandson's
intrusion. He is impetuous. He is young.

He will not bother you again.

What brings you to Colorado Springs?

Ever since the railroads were finished,
we've been looking for work.

I was told that there were several gold
mines near Colorado Springs.

I'm afraid all the mines around here are
tapped out.

I have kept the others going the last
few days with the promise that here at

last we could work.

I wish I could tell you something
different.

There hasn't been a strike around these
parts in a couple of years.

Why don't you let me give it some
thought?

Maybe I can help you out.

we would be most grateful for any help
that you could give us.

Well, I'll see what I can do.

My grandson tells me you are the doctor.

Yes. You came to see the festivities?

Actually, I came to see you.

I was concerned about the illness your
grandson mentioned.

My grandson should not have troubled you
with our business.

Well, it's no trouble. I am a doctor.

A doctor of Western medicine?

Yes.

A much younger system of medicine than
the Chinese.

Yes, but not necessarily inferior.

Dr. Quinn, you came to see our clinic?

Jin Yong.

It is only proper, Grandfather.

Dr. Quinn was gracious enough to allow
me to examine her clinic.

It would be rude not to offer her the
same courtesy.

I would love to. Thank you.

The acupuncture needles are inserted at
points along the cheek.

Cheek? The life force.

Oh. The needles adjust the imbalance of
the flow.

It doesn't seem to be stopping his
fever.

What are his symptoms?

He goes from fever to chill.

And what about sweating?

Yes.

Are there others with the same symptoms?

There were two others.

They have been cured by acupuncture and
herbs.

Their fevers were not as high as his,
Grandfather.

Mr. Wu, I respect your experience and
knowledge of Chinese medicine.

Thank you.

But if there is some sort of fever
running through the camp... Running?

We do not look at it quite that way, Dr.
Quinn.

Illness is merely imbalance in a person.

Once balance is restored, illness is
gone.

I don't disagree with that.

You do not?

I studied Cheyenne Indian medicine, and
they believe, as you do, that illness or

disease is brought on when the patient
is out of balance in some aspect of

life. These Cheyenne Indians believe as
we do?

Yes, and so do I to some extent.

But that doesn't mean that the Weston
idea of medicine should be ignored.

Couldn't both of them be right?

He is not a stubborn man.

Just convinced of the correctness of his
thinking.

And perhaps he is right.

Two of his patients did seem much better
this afternoon.

But if your grandfather changes his
mind...

Or if you need me for anything.

Be careful.

Little kid, be careful.

Lou Chang.

Come, come.

Come, mommy hug.

Where are you going?

Why is she walking like that?

She has bound feet.

What do you mean?

It is an old custom.

They bind women's feet when they are
little girls.

It keeps their feet small.

Small?

They're deformed.

It is considered beautiful.

But she can barely walk.

I'm sick of seeing your sign around
here.

Don't come back.

Michaela.

What is it, Hank?

There's talk some of them Chinese people
might be sick.

Is that true?

I'm not sure what you mean.

What I mean is, are they sick?

I don't see what possible concern that
is of yours.

Oh, you don't?

You don't think there's another epidemic
on our hands? I might be concerned.

It's not another epidemic, Hank. You
know that for a fact.

Well, one or two people have a fever.

A fever?

Well, it doesn't appear to be anything
contagious.

But it could be.

Hank. Look what happened last time,
Michaela.

Your own sister died.

Well, this is nothing like that, Hank.

You better do something about this, or I
will.

He's just spouting off.

I'll keep an eye on him.

He has a fever. It came in the night.

Bring him inside.

Great.

Put him on the table.

People became feverish in the night.

Sinan asked me to come to you for help.
I would not. I could not.

Colleen, bring him right there.

Sinan worked so hard to help the others.

I did not notice his fever until it was
too late. It's not too late.

The temperature is dangerously high.

You mixed the sulfate of coine?

Stop!

What are you doing to my grandson?

I have chosen to his heart.

There is no need.

I will not allow this. I must listen to
his heart.

Her heart.

Save my granddaughter's life.

The fever is gone.

This is a microscope.

I have seen pictures of such an
instrument.

It makes matter look larger than it
really is, helping us to better identify

You can see what we call spores in her
saliva.

The existence of spores along with the
fever and an enlarged spleen indicate

presence of malaria.

I have over a thousand different roots
and herbs to treat my patients.

I have nothing to treat this.

Sulfate of quinia.

It'll interrupt the recurrence of the
fever.

It's important to stop the disease as
quickly as possible.

To prevent any greater damage to the
body.

Grandfather. You're all right.

You had a terrible fever.

Drink this.

It'll make you better.

The others, they are sick.

I must help them. Shh.

The others are resting. They will be
fine.

Right now, we need to get you better.

No. So you can help them.

Mr. Wu, why does Jin Young disguise
herself as a boy?

It was the only way.

It is the only way.

You letting him go?

He posted bail.

Not only that.

Got me a change of venue.

What did you hear about change of venue?

I got my sources.

That horsewired judge up in Denver.

Got my trial moved there.

Can he do that?

Yeah. Man feels like he can't get a fair
trial in his own hometown. He can have

it moved.

Damn straight.

Daniel, he's counting on you not going
to Denver to testify.

He can move the trial wherever he wants.

I'll still be there.

Believe me.

Jingyang's fever broke in the night.

Did you get any sleep at all? A little.

This is for Jingyang.

I'm going to go get you some breakfast.

I understand when you were in the
Chinese camp, you saw some of this

needle therapy they do?

Acupuncture? I read a little bit about
it last night.

Apparently, it can be very effective for
certain ailments.

Rheumatism, gout, sciatica.

Fascinating. Is it a form of bleeding?

Well, apparently, it knows no blood.
They use very small needles. Dr. Mike,

had a town council meeting, and we
decided that you got to quarantine the

Chinese camp.

Well, I never heard about a meeting.

It wouldn't have made any difference if
it was unanimous.

Unanimous? It can't be unanimous if the
whole council didn't vote.

Well, the rest of us voted on it, Dr.
Mike.

Can't risk another epidemic.

You're just lucky we ain't quarantining
you.

What? Well, a couple of them Chinese
have been in your clinic.

Hank, why are you doing this?

It ain't just me.

The whole town is up in arms over this.
All them Chinese people so close to the

church? And the school?

Why, who knows what could happen? Jake's
informing Daniel.

Yeah, and it's up to the two of you to
keep them Chinese out of town.

Are you sure you feel strong enough to
go back?

Yes.

Thank you for all you have done.

But I need to get back.

To help with the others who are sick.

Jingyan.

I felt with your grandfather.

About how you dressed as a man.

I am sorry you had to find out.

I'm not.

I know it must be hard for you to
understand.

When I was a very young child, my
grandfather began teaching me all the

different herbs and roots we use in
healing.

He always wanted me to be a doctor like
him.

That's a wonderful idea.

But only possible if I am a man.

You don't have to be a man to be a
doctor.

In the Chinese community, no woman can
be a doctor.

That's not true.

You are a woman and a doctor.

If you tell them, they'll get used to
the idea.

In time.

You talk as if it is possible to change
the direction the sun moves across the

sky. No.

You do not understand my people.

They will never accept a woman doctor.

Never.

Please. Tell me you will not speak of
this to anyone.

At least Dr. Mike is doing what we told
her to.

Ain't sure it's going to make a
difference, Lauren.

What do you mean?

You think a couple hundred feet can keep
that fever away from the rest of us?

Oh, no.

What's wrong?

They are binding Lo Chiang's feet.

They will keep tightening the gauze
until her toes turn back against the

her foot.

They will break the bones if necessary.

But her feet will get smaller and
smaller.

Eventually, her toes will fall off.

You cannot do this.

Xinyang, why are you speaking of our
customs to a stranger?

It's barbaric.

She wants to have this done.

Look at these beautiful shoes my wife
has made for her.

Please.

She's just a little girl.

Just go.

You've upset her.

She likes the shoes. She wants the
shoes.

Don't do this, please.

Luo Qiang's feet are weak from the walk
over the mountain.

Wait a week or they will bleed and
become infected.

One week.

Let's go.

One week.

What will I do then?

So I'm wired slowly in Washington.

He suggested I talk to Tom Hanson.

Hey, he's got 20 years with the gold
mine? Yeah.

We're going to meet in Spencerville and
talk about it there.

Maybe he's got some work for these
folks.

Listen, you're going to be back in time
to testify against Hank in Denver,

right? Wouldn't miss that.

Yes, let's go!

How'd the car start?

No one knows.

It is fortunate no one was killed.

You did this, didn't you?

You know exactly what I'm talking about.
Matthew!

Matthew!

What's going on here?

Take a look.

You set the camp on fire last night. I
didn't set fire to nothing.

I was in the saloon last night.

Ask anybody that was there.

I didn't go anywhere near that camp.

Well, is there anybody here who could
back up Hank's claim?

He's telling the truth, Sheriff.

I was in the saloon most of the night.
Most of the night? I was tinned in bar.

At least a dozen other men will tell you
the same thing.

Oh, you covered your tracks real good,
didn't you, Hank?

You got proof?

Go ahead and arrest me.

If not, stay out of my way.

You did it, Daniel. I know it. You'll
get what's coming to him, Matthew.

I'll see to it in Denver.

I will, too.

I was told you needed to see me.

Yeah.

Look, I'm real sorry about what happened
at camp.

With everything we can to replace your
belongings.

We are looking only to work and to feed
our families. Well, I think I might have

some good news for you.

I just come from speaking to a friend of
mine, Tom Hanson.

A few months back, he struck a small
vein of gold on an old mine of his.

Looking for miners to work it.

He'll pay you a decent wage.

That'll take you better than a week to
get there, but you'll have jobs waiting

for you once you do.

A good helper.

How are

you feeling?

Better.

We will be leaving in the morning.

I've been thinking about our
conversation.

About being a woman and a doctor.

I have told you.

If I am to be a doctor among my people,

I have no choice.

Yes, that's what you said, but you have
no choice about being a woman either.

If it will best serve my people to live
as a man, that is what I will do.

I will find a way to protect Lo Chiang,
to save her from a life of walking on

bound feet.

But I can only speak on her behalf as a
man.

Don't you see?

You're living a bound life as well.

Who will protect you?

I will.

I have protected Jin Young since she was
a baby.

Protected her?

By forcing her to live as a boy?

Her father died five months before she
was born. Her mother died giving birth

her.

In Kwai Chau province, a female child
with no parents is of no use and would

killed. Killed?

I raised her as a boy to save her life.

Mr. Wu, I understand what a terrible
choice you had to make.

But this is not China.

Are you still saving her life?

How soon do you think they're going to
leave?

In the morning, Jin Young said.

Do you think they're going to take the
quineo with them?

I hope so.

I think I made some impression on Mr.
Wu.

But he is a man convinced of the
correctness of his thinking.

Next week when I go back to college, I
decide I want to write my next term

report on Chinese medicine.

Well, that's a great subject.

It's a lot like Cheyenne medicine.

I'm going to talk to Jin Young about it
some more.

Jingyang will make a wonderful doctor.

Life and balance.

What?

It's something Jingyang told me about.

Philosophy of Chinese medicine.

You treat the person, not the illness.

Restore the balance within oneself.

I wonder what kind of balance it can be
for Jingyang.

She continues to live a lie.

Twenty -five years ago, I couldn't even
have thought about being a doctor.

Women weren't even allowed in medical
school.

Lucky for me, that all changed.

No, it wasn't luck, Colleen.

It changed because a few brave women
made it change.

If it weren't for them, I couldn't have
gone to medical school myself.

But who's going to change it for her?

What are you two doing here?

To leave. The Denver train leaves in 15
minutes.

Yeah.

You're going to Denver?

Wouldn't miss it.

Me either.

Lu Qiang.

What is it? Lu Qiang.

She has the malaria.

Her fever is very high.

Grandfather, have brought Dr. Quinn.

No. So, your daughter had the high
fever. I need to... She does not need

medicine. Yes, she does.

Please tell him.

She is right.

Our medicine is not bringing the fever
down.

Dr. Quinn can help her. I said no. Mrs.
Tso, we don't have any time to argue.

Stay away from my child.

Dr. Quinn's medicine can save her life.

You will save her life.

I will not let this woman treat my
child.

She is a doctor.

She is a woman.

And I am a woman as

well.

What?

Tell them, Grandfather.

Xiao Zhang.

Is this true?

It is.

Leaving for the mines?

No.

The others will go there now, but
Jingyang and I cannot join them.

We are now outcasts, Dr. Quinn.

Outcasts? You mean they won't let you
live with them anymore?

My people are angry.

They feel betrayed by my deception.

But you and Jingyang, you're part of the
community.

We are the doctors.

Surely in time they'll come to accept.
Accept?

Would I have kept my granddaughter
hidden as a boy all these years if there

any hope she could practice her medicine
freely?

Mr. Wu, I believe that you acted with
the best of intentions.

Out of love and concern for Jingyang.
And now, because you encouraged her to

reveal herself, she has no people, no
home.

I still have you, Grandfather.

And now I also have the truth.

You look beautiful, Jingyang.

Thank you, Colleen.

But your real name is not Jin Yang.

It is Li Ying.

Li Ying.

Li Ying.

Grandfather?

Li Ying, you are beautiful.

Just like your mother.

Come in, come in. I don't have all day.

Mr. Lawson, after listening to Sheriff
Simon's testimony against you, I am

sentencing you to six months in jail.

Six months? Intent to commit arson is a
serious crime with serious consequences.

I didn't do nothing.

How so many innocent men are convicted
of crimes these days is beyond me.

I demand a retrial. You're not in a
position to demand anything, Hank. Your

Honor, if I may speak to the court. I
thought you said you weren't his

I'm not.

I'm here to speak on behalf of the
victims.

Victims of what?

Shortly after Mr. Lawson was apprehended
for attempted arson, a fire did break

out. And I wasn't there. Although Mr.
Lawson has an alibi as to his

on the night of the fire... Yes, yes,
young man, I get the picture. Speak

plainly.

Your Honor, sending Hank to jail isn't
going to do anything for those poor

who lost everything in that fire.

So what do you propose?

A hundred dollar fine.

A hundred bucks?

To be paid in restitution to the Chinese
families.

Restitution, eh?

Seems like the just thing to do, Your
Honor.

What do you say to that, Sheriff?

Oh, I agree with Matthew, Your Honor.

Seems like the just thing to do.

So be it.

A hundred dollar fine to be paid to the
victims of the fire immediately upon

your return to Colorado Springs.

The yin.

Is there something I could do to change
their minds?

It is out of our hands, Dr. Quinn.

Where will you go? What will you do?

Lu Cheng?

Too fast.

Lu Cheng!

You are feeling better.

Lu Cheng's fever.

I was so worried last night I gave her
your medicine.

And soon after, the fever went down.

Thank you, Qingyang.

I'm very pleased to hear this.

But the medicine was from Dr.

Quinn.

You were willing to try something new.

Mrs. Zhou, please.

Promise me you will not bind Luo Qing's
feet.

My husband... Your husband does not know
the pain she will suffer.

The pain you have suffered.

You must not allow this practice to
continue.

Please, give her the freedom to walk and
to run as

a woman with strength and honor.

What can I do?

It is entirely up to my husband, Mrs.
Tso.

Please, do not ask me to do it.

I hope you'll both consider staying at
the clinic as my guests until you decide

what you want to do. You are most kind.

Li Ying, I hope you don't regret. No.

I can no longer deny who I am.

I am a woman. A woman doctor.

A woman doctor, yes.

But one whose people refuse her care.

Not everyone refused your care.

Just now, Lo Chang's mother said that
she used the quina you gave her.

One person who used my medicine in
secret.

Well, darn.

When Ma first came to town, folks around
here wouldn't let her treat him either.

You?

I'm afraid so.

A lady doctor was unheard of.

But you have your own clinic.

Well, I do now.

People respect you.

Some do.

Most do, Ma.

But it wasn't always like that.

Dr. Mike had to have a lot of time and
patience.

And of course I refused to leave.

I gave him no choice.

If you want to catch them leaking, you
must hurry.

Thank you, Colleen.

Good luck leaking.

Dr. Quinn, I will never forget you.

And I'll never forget you.
