All language subtitles for Little Men s01e02 Quarantine

Watch it now.

Attagirl, come on, man.

Come on, man.

A big splash. It's hard to make a
ripple.

Backhoe to cannonball.

That was much.

Are you kidding?

That was practically a title win.

You saw Nick. I mean, who's the bigger?

Pretty tough to beat a cannonball, Dan.

Yes, I win.

Hold on. Matt still has to jump.

Come on, Nat. Chicken.

Come on, Nat.

I bet he won't either.

Like the other day. Let's go, pal. Watch
out.

I'm so yellow.

Run.

He won't even make a ripple.

Chicken.

Be quiet, Emilio.

Come on, Nat.

You can't do it. Of course he can.

Of course he'll jump. Come on, you can
do it, Nat.

First time doing something is always the
hardest.

I can tell by that look in your eye.

You're going to lick this thing today.

I am?

You bet.

Come on. Chicken, pretty cat.

Nah, he won't jump. All you gotta do is
take a deep breath, plant your feet, and

fly. He's a chicken.

That bird's a chicken. A yellow -bellied
chicken.

Come on, Nat, concentrate.

Punch forward, then push off. Come on,
Nat.

Nat.

Nat, only jump if you want.

He wants to.

Right, Nat?

You can try again another day.

No time like the present.

Maybe I'll try again tomorrow.

Chicken! Come on, Nat.

What a chicken.

He was just about to jump.

There's no need to pressure him, Nick.

He'll do it when he's ready.

Oh, careful.

I just put on another coat.

Don't that make no... 12?

I don't want it to chip.

Of course not.

You're a craftsman.

Oh, thanks, Nick. I fixed it. No
problem.

You guys have been working on this thing
for weeks.

Mrs. Joe, when I'm finished, would you
display it in the parlor?

I think that'd be lovely, Marcus.

You all right?

He looks flush.

Who's that hacking?

It's Marcus.

He's warm.

Let me see.

Uh -oh.

What? He's got it all right.

He's got what, Asia?

The measles.

The measles?

Must have brought it back with you from
Boston.

Yeah, you're gonna feel real sick and
start to itch like you never itched

before.

I've already had it.

Anybody else had the measles before?

Nope. No? No.

Well, then get ready, Miss Jo, because
these measles are gonna sweep through

here faster than a bunch of locusts.

My husband and I founded Plumfield as a
school for children from all walks of

life. Its passing has left a void in our
lives.

But in the children, I see the promise
of a new day and find the strength to

keep our dream alive, no matter how hard
the struggle.

Open wide.

Let's have a look inside.

Oh, yes.

It's definitely measles.

I told you. You see those tiny white
spots there on the lining of his cheek?

Let me see.

Man, stay out.

It's too late, Mrs. Bear.

The disease is most contagious before
the rash appears. I suspect that she and

the rest of the children...

Well, all of you, in fact, have already
been exposed.

Now, standard treatment, plenty of rest,
lots of fluid, and that's reducing his

fever. Catnip tea would do the trick.

Oh, yes, that has been effective.

Keep the curtains drawn if his eyes
become sore. And let me see. Oh, yes,

it is.

This should relieve the itching.

So what are you saying, Doctor, that we
should all expect to get sick?

Well, unless you've had the disease
before.

Yeah, that's me. Or you've developed
some kind of natural immunity over the

years. That's me.

Or you're just plain lucky.

That's me.

Then, yes, you will undoubtedly come
down with it.

You know, my son and some of the other
boys, they don't share a room with me.

Well, it doesn't matter. You all live in
such close proximity here.

Well, still, they haven't shown any
signs or symptoms.

Maybe I should send the young ones home.
No, Mrs. B, you don't understand.

They can't leave.

No one can.

And from now on, no one can come in
either.

Not until the disease has run its
course.

That sounds like a quarantine.

Precisely. If left unchecked, measles
can reach epidemic proportions.

What's a quarantine?

It means we've got to stay locked up
here.

How long?

Well, I'd say about two weeks.

This is a bear.

In most cases, one will only
experience...

Fever, fatigue, some coughing and
sneezing and tolerable discomfort.

However, I must tell you that measles
can be extremely dangerous.

Pneumonia can set in.

Inflammation of the brain.

Now, I'm not saying that that's going to
happen here. Those cases are far less

common. In all likelihood, you'll
weather this strain without

I simply want you to be aware.

Dr. Pierce.

Is there nothing else we can do?

Just wait, Mrs. Bear.

Try not to worry.

I'll check in on you often.

There you are.

You should be in the guest room resting.

I just came from my train.

A little more paint and it'll be done.

It's gonna be a beautiful train.

It already is.

Thanks.

How you feeling?

All right, I guess.

A rash.

It's on my hands and arms now.

Well,

it's bound to spread all over, I'm
afraid. Does it itch?

A lot.

All right, well.

We'll try some of that salve Dr. Pierce
left us.

Marcus, I've gotten word to your
parents.

They send their love.

They're so sorry that they can't be here
with you through this.

Thanks, Mrs. Joe.

But tell them not to worry.

I've got you to take care of me.

That's right.

That's what I'm going to do the whole
time.

Anything you need.

But right now.

That's good.

Meg will be our lifeline to the outside
world. She said to make a list of

anything else we need.

What's this?

Pockets for my soup, which reminds me,
tell Nick we need two chickens.

You folded those sheets already?

Sure did. Good. Now pin the wet ones up.

Meg's informed all the parents.

We have plenty of food and supplies.

Wood. We'll need plenty of wood. Nick's
already talking about it. You heard Miss

Jo. Now tell him we're fighting the
measles here. Now go on. You two go

Yes, ma 'am.

What would you do without me?

I don't want to think about it.

Nan, did you bring up those washcloths?

Yes, ma 'am. They're in the cabinet.

We needed plenty of cold compresses.

What are you reading?

Medical books.

Had them downstairs in the parlor.

Those are my husband's.

He had an interest in so many different
subjects.

Is it all right I look at him?

I've been real careful, Mrs. Doe.

Of course it is, Nan.

You can help yourself with those books
any time you want.

Thanks.

I want to know as much as I can about
measles.

That way we'll be prepared for anything.

You'll be our resident expert.

Rubiola, it's called.

A fifthly, I mean.

Rubiola.

And I think I prefer the measles.

Yeah, this is kind of scary.

Hey, listen to this.

People have experimented with a variety
of homemade remedies to help relieve

symptoms.

Some folks use plants, even.

That's interesting.

What else does it say?

It says... People can die from measles.

Yes, that's true.

In extreme cases when complications set
in. But Dr. Pierce has assured me that

we should all weather this strain
without much discomfort.

We'll cough, we'll sneeze, we'll itch.
Then we'll be fine.

You should be resting.

Gotta finish, Mrs. Joe.

Besides, it keeps my mind off the
itching.

The sad isn't helping?

I guess a little.

Do you want some tea?

I've got tea coming out of my ears.

Wow.

Helps keep the fever down.

Did you do the caboose yet?

Of course I didn't do the caboose yet.

Promised to help me with it, didn't you?

Nick said we gotta find just the right
color red.

Well, I guess it doesn't matter if
you're in here.

They're trapped in here, being
quarantined like being in prison.

Yeah, I mean, think about it.

We can't go out hiking or riding into
town or go swimming.

And all you sent me is just waiting to
get sick.

Chicken, there's the first one to go.

Yeah, you might as well put a sign on
your head, Measel.

Come get me.

Play awesome.

Gotta admit, he's always getting sick.

Yeah, well, he ain't getting sick this
time.

You can't just decide, Dan.

I can. I made up my mind.

No measles for me.

Yeah, I'm not getting them either.

Hey, is you finished reading Pilgrim's
Progress yet?

Not finished yet.

Well, you know the report's due
tomorrow.

It is? Oh, yeah.

Are you all right?

Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. I'm fine.

You look really flushed.

Not at all. I was just up late preparing
lessons.

You got the measles.

Where are you from?

Class... is cancelled today.

You too?

Hey, come on, I'll race you.

Short day.

Yeah.

Phones are sick.

You all right, Nat?

So far.

But I'm not.

You don't know that.

I always get sick.

You know what?

You're probably right.

I'm a chicken.

You shouldn't listen so much to the
other boys.

You're tougher than you think.

No, I'm not.

I didn't jump, remember?

You'll jump when you're ready.

Well, there's no reason to stay separate
and alone anymore.

Yeah, Marcus. We can suffer together.

201.

102.

Warm.

But under boiling.

When's my cough going to go away?

You're wheezing.

Does your chest feel tight?

Sort of.

Okay. I'll get word to Dr. Pierce.

I'll get him to prescribe something to
you.

Yeah. And tell him to get better stuff
for this itching, too.

Asia, that soup smells delicious.

Making it a little more spicy.

Helps clear the sinuses.

Are you feeling all right?

Of course I am.

Asia.

I thought the measles couldn't get me.

I am so sorry.

No, I'm sorry, Miss Jo. I just don't
know how you're going to do all this by

yourself. Well, I'm not by myself.

The children are here, and Nick will
help.

Now, you need to go on and rest, not
worry. I've got to finish making my

I'll finish the soup.

You go and rest.

You'll just add too much salt.

No, I'll restrain myself.

Go on.

And just keep your hands off my pepper
mill, too, okay?

I'll check on you in a bit.

Oh, Asia said she ran out.

Oh.

Well, Asia's just come down with the
measles.

I thought she said she was immune.

Apparently there's a crack in her armor.

Sorry to hear that.

Yeah, well, that makes nine now.

I'm afraid it's just the beginning.

Well, let's hope it's over real quick.

You know, I know that the boys upstairs
would love to see you.

Especially Marcus.

Uh... Perhaps you could spend some time
with him.

Help keep their spirits up.

Sure, yeah.

But I got a lot of work to get done, and
it's gonna be dark soon.

Of course.

How's Marcus this morning?

His fever's still high, Meg.

And he's very congested.

Dr. Pierce thinks he may have pneumonia.

He promised to stop by tomorrow.

In the meantime, he's prescribed
laudanum. It's on the top there.

It should relieve Marcus's airways,
relax his breathing.

I wish I could come in.

I wish you could, too.

The last thing we need is for you to
become sick.

Or for you to bring it home to the
twins.

Asia? Don't tell me you've been messing
in my kitchen.

You gotta eat, too, don't you?

I guess I could stand a little
something.

What you got here?

Uh, tea, toast, and the orange marmalade
you like, and scrambled eggs.

Ain't that sweet?

Mm -hmm.

Annette, you did strain the tea now.

Strain?

That's okay. I like my tea chewy.

Is the toast how you like it?

Perfect.

So how can a bunch of weeds stop folks
from itching?

They're plants and herds, Jack, and they
work.

According to these books.

There.

That's a golden seal.

It's got pointed leaves and a thick
yellow stalk.

Is this supposed to be a plant?

You.

That's a burdock. It's got purple
flowers.

I need the roots.

The root.

I'm not digging around in the dirt for
this stuff.

You better.

You're going to start scratching pretty
soon, huh?

No, scratching's going to be your
specialty. I have patients waiting.

Okay, Rob.

Let's see.

Open.

Oh.

You've got it.

Let's see back here. Over here.

Just like Marcus.

Time for your medicine.

Makes him real sleepy.

Yeah, it does.

That's it.

That's it. Can I get you anything?

Train.

You want to paint your train?

The engine.

I just want to hold it.

There you go.

Better get well quick.

Megan needs another coat.

Is it supposed to turn green like that?

No more leaves without the dirt.

What difference does it make?

Ann, I appreciate your trying, but that
odor.

Donger, it smells better. It works.

It'll work all right on an elephant.

It's awful, man.

Who's going to let you put this stuff on
him?

Hold still, Tommy. This will stop the
itching.

That's really dripping right off him.

Now I've got to make my next batch
thicker.

Once I figure out how.

There. How do you feel? Wet.

Besides that?

Sticky.

Are you still itching?

Mm -hmm.

I made this batch myself.

Extra honey.

Careful now. Sip it slow.

Good.

Franz, what are you doing?

I'm fine, Aunt Jo.

You have the measles, Franz.

A mild case. A mild case that will not
get better as long as you're running

around out of bed.

I'm not running around. I'm just trying
to help out.

Well, you can help out as soon as you
get well.

Aunt Jo, so many of the boys are ill.

Asia, now Rob.

It's too much for one person.

I'm not alone.

The healthy children have been
wonderful.

We have everything under control.

Always such a spirit and strength.

With these past few months, all you've
been through, I just want to do what I

can to help you.

Thank you, Franz.

I appreciate your concern.

But you're sick.

And if you don't get back in bed, you'll
only worry me more. And that will not

help me at all.

How are you feeling?

More already?

I can hardly keep up with you, Nat.

Can't help folks getting chilled, right?

Nick?

I heard Mrs. Joe and Asia talking about
Marcus having pneumonia.

That's real bad, ain't it?

Can be.

I mean, um, folks can die from it,
right?

Do you know anyone that died from it?

Yeah.

Um, I was thinking maybe you can, uh, go
upstairs and help Marcus on his train

later.

He's, uh, holding it real close.

Dad, I got a ton of work to do out here.

Don't forget all these chores not
getting done because you boys are sick.

So you tell Marcus I'm thinking of him.

And I'll be in when I can.

Get some cold compresses.

Hurry.

We've got to get Dr. Pierce.

Nick!

Nick!

Mrs. Joe?

He went into the forest to get some more
wood.

I may be carrying the measles.

Mrs. Bear, you're under quarantine.

Mrs. Bear, what are you doing here?

It's Marcus.

very weak.

We have to get this fever down.

Now.

Come

on,

Marcus.

Come on, Marcus. Stay up.

Come on, Marcus.

It's too late.

We've lost you.

Marcus' parents, Mr.

and Mrs. Carter.

I know the family.

I'll speak with them.

If only I came sooner. You know, maybe
we could have brought his fever down. We

could have... Mrs. Baird, you did all
that you could.

You treated Marcus well.

But once pneumonia sets in, I'm afraid
the fever and infection...

will overwhelm the patient very quickly.

And clearly this is a particularly
strong strain of the measles. You must

especially vigilant in your treatment
now.

I will.

You must be terribly tired.

So I wonder you haven't fallen ill
yourself.

But if you do catch the measles now and
you're presently weak in condition, you

need to rest, Mrs. Bear. I'm all right.

Now more than ever, Everyone who is
healthy needs to be helping you.

Mrs. Joe!

There's people at the gate.

Joe!

Meg.

What's going on?

Sheriff Webster?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Bayer, for your troubles
here, ma 'am.

But I understand you came into town
today.

I had no choice.

You are under quarantine.

A boy was sick. And that's why you keep
him out here.

You can't bring a disease like that into
town. I'm afraid you don't understand.

One of the boys had pneumonia.

Had?

Marcus Carter.

A boy died from it.

We gotta post a guard out here. Keep our
children safe.

Believe it.

Can't believe he's gone.

Marcus was a wonderful boy.

And we'll all remember him for his kind
and gentle manner.

The way he took such care with
everything that he did.

I know you're... scared.

Those of you who are ill, you're
especially scared.

Rob.

Marcus feels funny.

Oh, sweetheart.

Let's get you back in bed.

I've got some medicine that will help
your breathing.

Didn't help Marcus.

You all are.

It's all right, Nat.

You've been working real hard.

Yeah, well, there's a lot to do.

How are things going inside?

Same. How's Rob?

Why don't you go and see for yourself?

I will.

Soon.

Sure you will.

Nat, wait a minute.

Nick, if you're so scared, just say so.
Don't make excuses.

Matt, I lost my parents in an influenza
epidemic.

My kid sister, too.

I guess seeing everyone so sick and then
Marcus brings

back memories.

Yeah, I lost my family, too.

I guess it's easier just to not get too
close.

But you see, that's why I'm getting
close.

Because I already lost one family.

And I want to make sure I don't lose
this one, too.

How's Ralph's fever, Mrs. Joe?

He's cool now, Dan.

Thank you.

He's gonna be fine.

Miss Jo.

You need your rest.

Not yet, Dan.

Not just yet.

I see the rash, Miss Jo.

You're sick.

I just need to get some fresh air.

That's all.

I'm gonna go get the sheets off the
line.

I'll do it. No, Dan, please.

I need you to stay with Rob right now,
okay?

You just stay here with Rob.

She'll wake up.

Nick?

Is she going to be all right?

Yeah.

I've got you.

Easy now, Joe.

Where's Ro?

Dan's with him.

His fever's down.

Rob's fine now, Mrs. Joe.

Nothing happens to me.

Nothing's gonna happen to you.

You're gonna be fine.

Nick, it's empty.

What? There's no more laudanum.

Mrs. Joe must have gave Rob the last
dose.

She needs it now.

What are we gonna do?

Get some.

Now, hold it right there. Not too close.

The lady of the house is sick.

You're all sick. She's got trouble
breathing.

You got to get to Dr. Pierce. Tell him
we've run out of laudanum. We can't

our post.

No one's breaking quarantine.

One of you has got to... Hey, I don't
wish the lady any harm, but Doc Pierce

says there's nothing can be done.

This thing just has to run its course.

And you can forget about running through
that forest.

I got men posted all over.

Ha!

Damn fools are so scared. They won't
leave their posts.

We got to get that loud in them
ourselves Gonna take an army to get

these guards around here Or a kid

She doing I don't know

Now get back in there.

Hey!

Boy, you come back here!

Get back in there! Hey,

you in the forest here!

Boy,

you come back here!

Friends,

what are you doing? You should be in
bed.

I'm feeling better.

How is she?

Not good.

Nick got out.

He's run for the doctors.

Hear that, Mrs. Joe?

Everything's going to be okay.

How did Nick get out?

Nat took the guards. Good going, Nat.
Should have seen him.

That's off to you, Nat.

What else can we do for her?

Run out. I said Lena Chandler's leg this
morning. Mr.

Ford's lumbago was acting up. I gave
them all I had for their pain. People

dying, Doc.

Dr. Blanchard, he's got laudanum. He's
in Bedford.

Easy there, Rob, easy.

How are you feeling?

First.

my mother.

She's resting.

Dr. Blanchard, it's an emergency.

Who are you? What do you want?

Nick Riley, sir.

I need Laudman.

I beg your pardon?

I've come from Concord. Dr. Pierce, he's
run out.

My employer, Mrs. Joe Bear, is in
desperate need with pneumonia.

I can't hand out laudanum to some
stranger in the street.

Then ride back with me to Plumfield.

Plumfield? It's a school.

You're under quarantine.

Dr. Blanchard, please! She's very sick!

I'll have you arrested!

There's no one on the horse.

You made it.

Thanks to you.

Joe.

Laudanum.

Good.

She's going to be better now, right?

Yes.

She will.

Nick. Did I scare you?

Yeah.

You did.

I'm feeling better.

I'm sorry I didn't help you before.

I should have come in right off, but...
I lost my folks.

Seeing everyone here get sick, it scared
me.

I'll let the kids know you're feeling
all right.

Nick.

Well, today's the day.

Finally.

Dr. Pierce said he'd be here by noon to
make it official.

Well, in the meantime, I want all this
thick air out and all these dishes

cleaned. Joe?

So nice to see you all well again.

What's wrong?

Mrs. Jones?

We... Nick helped us, and we went ahead
and finished Marcus' train.

You think he'll like it?

Yeah. You know, we were all wondering if
we could play it in the parlor, you

know, like Marcus wanted.

Yeah, that's all right.

That'll be fine with me.

All right. Go.

Go put it in the parlor.

Come on.

Go put it up.

Congratulations, Plumfield. It is over.

I've spoken with Dr. Blanchard, Mr.
Riley. Under the circumstances, he has

agreed not to press charges, though he
still intends to bill you for his door.

I'll fix it myself.

Hey, Nick, you see that?

Yeah.

You're doing that.
