Emmy, you better turn down
towards Cincinnati.

If we could find your uncle,
Ned Arrowsmith.

I guess he'd take us in.

Nobody ain't gonna take us in.

We're goin' West.

There's a whole lot of
new things

I aim to be seeing yet.

And that was your grandmother,
Martin.

Fine stock to come from.

Pioneer stock.

Stubborn stock.

That would make a medical man
out of you, if anything will.

Why, it would make
a real scientist out of you

if you live up to it.

- Readin' old Gray, eh?
- Yes, sir.

That's right.

Physician's library.

Three books.

"Gray's Anatomy"

"The Holy Bible."

Shakespeare.

Study, Martin.

Someday you may be
a great doctor.

Get training.

Go to college before
you go to medical school.

Study chemistry.

'Latin, physics, biology.'

'Be a fine doctor.'

- Yeah, well?
- My name's Arrowsmith.

- Arrowsmith?
- Martin Arrowsmith.

I'm just starting
medical school and I thought

I'd like to take my Bacteriology
with you this fall

instead of waiting
till second year.

That is, if you don't mind.

Yeah? But I do mind.

Well, I'm not gonna be
just an ordinary doctor.

- No?
- No.

I-I want to be
a research scientist

like you, Dr. Gottlieb.

Not as-not as great as you are

of course, but..

But I'm not interested
in just giving pills

to people.

I'd rather find a cure
for cancer.

Yeah, if you can do that,
you will be much greater than I.

Oh, I, I really mean I want
to find out things for myself.

I know how little I know
and I'm not afraid of hard work.

Oh-ho, so now we begin
to talk sensibly.

My boy..

...to be a scientist.

...that is born in a man.

And in very few men.

It may be born in you.

But first, go and be
a medical student.

Go learn the names
of the diseases.

Learn to work in
the dissecting school

without being sick.

Learn to watch the blood flow..

...without fainting.

Go and get your MD
after your name.

And then... come back to me.

- Alright, doc, up you go.
- Fine.

- You're new, aren't you, doc?
- I'll say so.

- I was born yesterday.
- That's why I come along.

These people get kinda excited
down here once in a while.

Does anyone here speak English?

- Tutto, sure.
- Uh, where's the patient?

Well, congratulations.
You're the father of a fine boy.

No, no, I'm the uncle,
he's the father.

- Oh, congratulations.
- Thank you.

You know, doctor,
he's his first baby.

Oh, well,
it's my first baby, too.

Yeah?

Uh, nurse,
I want to find Ward D.

Do you?

- Can you direct me?
- I could, yes.

Well, if it isn't interrupting
your work..

This isn't my work.

Nurses aren't supposed
to scrub floors.

Superintendent caught me
smoking a cigarette.

You go back for Ward D,
turn right and then left.

I've been informed
that the first duty of a nurse

is to stand
when she speaks to a doctor.

Oh, gee, I've been getting
fresh again.

It may interest you to know that
I'm Dr. Gottlieb's assistant

and that I'm on my way
to Ward D

to take a strain
of a very dangerous microbe.

And when I've done
what I came here to do

I shall report you.
What's your name?

- What's yours?
- Arrowsmith.

You're not reporting me,
you know.

Oh, gee, there I go again.

Well, scrubbing floors
just makes me rebellious

and being rebellious
just naturally makes me fresh

and there you are.
My name is Leora Tozer.

- It's a silly name, isn't it?
- Heh.

Well, what's wrong with it?

I kinda like it.

Thanks.

When can you get away
for dinner?

With you?

Well, I've decided to overlook
reporting you.

How about tonight?

- Well..
- Well, why not?

- I don't mind.
- What time? Um..

You will report the patient's
temperature to me every hour.

I'll look in again at 7:00.

At 7:00.

- Oh, I've talked too much.
- You haven't bored me.

- I've been pretty technical.
- I liked it.

Made me feel intelligent.

Well, at that,
you've gotta get used to

hearing my ideas.

Oh? Am I gonna hear
a lot of 'em?

You're going to marry me.

- You don't tell me.
- I certainly do.

Now, you know

I shouldn't wonder
if you're right.

Of course, it's a little early
in the game to be dead sure..

...but I shouldn't wonder.

Guess you're pretty pig-headed
and self-centered, aren't you?

But I like you so much,
I'd be a fool to pass you up.

Have you got a nickel?

Certainly.

What for?

I want soft music.

You know,
I wasn't being funny.

I didn't think you were.

Oh, my dear love,
my love forever.

I hope you mean that.

Because, I warn you,
I'm never going to give you up.

And I've found you.

My life's begun.

I have sent for you, Martin

to tell you
that I am leaving this place

where I teach young doctors
to kill their patients.

I have been called to
the McGurk Institute of New York

where I shall do
only my own research.

McGurk?

The McGurk Institute
is the greatest

scientific plant in the world.

Well, I am very happy.

Yes, sir,
I should think you would be.

And I am happy for you,
too, Martin.

I have arranged for you to go
with me as my assistant.

You will have
great opportunity there.

You're the greatest man
I've ever known, Dr. Gottlieb.

I'd black your shoes for you.

But I can't go to New York
with you.

It has been a year

since my shoes
have been black, Martin.

Anyway, I was not taking you
as a bootblack.

Martin..

...why can't you go with me?

I'm going to be married.

And a man can't marry on what
a lab assistant makes, so..

...I'll just have to practice
medicine after all.

Practice?
Practice! Huh!

To give pills to ladies,
to hold their hands for them

to make their diets for them.

Practice? You?

You, who have the stuff
that makes scientist in you?

I'm sorry, sir,
but, but that's how it is.

Oh, well.

I am too wise to
argue with a man in love.

You would be a bad doctor
for a while

and then you will find
your way back to us.

And when you do, Martin..

...let me know, and..

...I will make a place for you.

Go.

Good luck to you.

I wish you happiness.

Thank you, sir.

By the laws of God
and by the laws of the state

I hereby pronounce you
man and wife.

Two dollars, please.

'The lady gets it.'

Uh, thank you.
Thank you very much.

'Don't mention it. Next.'

Well... we're married.

I don't feel any different.

I feel kind of flat.

So, where do we go from here?

You start practicing.

How does a doctor
start practicing?

I've often wondered about that.

Well, I thought you might take
a train with me to my hometown.

That's Wheatsylvania,
South Dakota.

Dakota?

We got 366 inhabitants
in Wheatsylvania.

And not a doctor in the lot.

Dakota. Yeah!

Real man's country.

Frontier! Opportunity!

You're gonna love South Dakota.

Come on, we're on our way!

For what we are about
to receive, Lord

and for all the many blessings

Thou hast bestowed
upon our house

may we be truly grateful.

Amen.

- I always--
- Leora.

- What is it, mom?
- Look!

Oh-oh-oh, that.

Th-th-that happened
day before yesterday.

- This is too much.
- Do you mean to tell me--

You've broken
your old parents' hearts.

- Now, look here, I--
- Martin, please, let me.

I'm sorry, darling, but I've got
to make my position clear.

Mr. Tozer,
I've been living alone

and working hard
for a long time.

I intend to go on working hard.

But I'm not gonna live alone
any longer.

That is, I'm not gonna live
without Leora.

You couldn't have stopped us
getting married.

But you would have tried
to stop us getting married.

And I can't waste time now.

You asked me this afternoon

if I, if I had any money
and I-I--

If you think for a single moment

you're going to get one red cent

out of this family

simply because you've butted in

Where you weren't invited..

I wanna know about it.
I certainly wanna know about it.

I'm not asking for money.
I'm asking for your good will.

I'm asking you
to help me to start in

practicing here,
so I can support--

Well, Martin may not be asking
for any money, but I am.

Pa's gonna lend Martin $1000
to start up an office.

Martin will pay him interest
on it.

That is,
if pa doesn't want to

give it to us
as a wedding present.

And you can afford it, pa.
You know you can.

- A thousand--
- You sit down.

And I don't wanna hear
any more talk about it

because Martin's giving up
a great career

as a research scientist
to be a country doctor

so he can support a wife.

And-and-and you all ought to

just get down on your knees

and appreciate him
and stop scrapping.

Will you give me a cigarette,
please, Martin?

- Leora!
- Leora..

You ain't learned to smoke
cigarettes?

Yes, I have and now
you can scream at me

for a while
and lay off Martin.

Hey, Lee, look.

That ought to bring 'em
rolling in, huh?

Come inside
and see what I've got.

Well, what've you got?

Wait till you see.

- What's that?
- It's pa's old Prince Albert.

- What, for me to wear?
- Certainly!

- Oh-ho, oh-ho!
- Come on.

- Aw.
- Oh, Martin, stop.

Now, this is serious.
You put that on.

Come on.

- Now, let me see.
- In a Ford.

Oh, Martin!

Oh, well, you're a doctor,
aren't you?

I'm a country doctor.

You bet you're a country doctor,
Martin.

You gotta to make
the young folks get married

when they ought to and stay
married when they don't want to.

You gotta lecture the big boys
on the evils of drink

and do your own drinking
with the shades down.

You gotta see
that the backyards are tidy

and the milk's fresh,
and the meat's pure.

That's what being
a country doctor means, Martin.

I'm proud to know you.

Fellow citizens!

Do you realize,
fellow citizens

there are 366 human souls
in this town

and only one man
to keep 'em fit?

Yay!

Oh, Leora, sweet.

I didn't know a man
could be so happy.

Hello!

- Is it a patient?
- I think so.

Hello, yes,
the doctor speaking.

My little girl, Mary

she's got
a terrible sore throat.

She look bad.

Can you come right away?

Yeah, I'll be right there.

Sore throat.

Might be diphtheria.

- First patient.
- About time.

There's always a time
when things begin to happen.

- But four miles to go.
- Four miles to glory.

Four miles in eight minutes.

Good luck, Martin!

Don't cry, mama.
Doctor's here now.

She looks pretty bad.

We done all we could for her.

Last night and tonight,
we steamed her throat

and we put her
in the new bedroom.

I think it's croup.

Now, can you open?

Just a little wider.

That's a good girl.

A little more.

That's it.

Croup, huh?

It is diphtheria.

Diphtheria?

What's that, diphtheria?

I don't know.

Uh, you fix her up good,
hm, doc?

Oh, you should have called
a doctor before this.

'If this were a hospital,
I'd operate.'

Try to..
Try and get some sleep.

I'll let you know
if there's any change.

No, doctor.

Gottlieb was right.

I am a rotten doctor.

Oh, don't say that, Martin.

You did your best.

No, I didn't, though.

I should have operated.

No matter what,
I should have operated.

You have followed me tonight

through the jungles of Africa.

You have seen how David Bruce

'conquered
sleeping sickness there.'

You have waded with me

in the Italian marshes

where Grassi identified

and doomed
the malarial mosquito.

I have sung to you tonight

the praises of your
four American doughboys

who sacrificed their lives

volunteered to become
human guinea pigs

that mankind might be saved
from yellow fever.

Here in India
and in China, too

from where comes
the bubonic plague

I have seen village
after village dying

with no help
from no doctor nowhere

except me.

I sound like
pretty important fellow, huh?

Well, I am.

Not so far ago

the whole population of London

was nearly wiped out

because a little rat

carried the germ
of the bubonic plague

on a ship from China to England.

Now that could happen again.

'I tell you, we don't want'

'no more old-style soldiers.'

'We want new-style'

'doctor-soldiers.'

Scientific soldiers.

Yeah. That's all.

- Thank you, doctor, very nice.
- Thank you, thank you.

Yeah. Y..
Yeah?

And you, you have
some questions to ask, huh?

Uh, my name's Arrowsmith,
Dr. Arrowsmith.

I thought perhaps
if you weren't due someplace

you might, uh,
care to come out and have a--

- A drink?
- Well..

S-something of that description,
yes.

I just think I would.

You know some nice place,
cool place, here in Detroit..

Dem..
Where am I tonight?

- Uh, this is Minneapolis.
- Min..

Yes, there's a fine beer joint
here, with real beer.

Ah! I buy you a drink.

Come on.

I was assistant
to Max Gottlieb.

- Oh-ho!
- You know him?

Gottlieb! The greatest.

The spirit of science.

I had once the pleasure
to speak to him in New York.

Ah, but, uh, let us
not be serious.

Let us drink.
Let us sing.

Ah, oh.

♪ She's a dark and roving eye ♪

♪ And her hair hung down
in ringlets ♪

♪ She's a nice girl ♪♪

Yes, I've a new lease on life.

No doubt about it, Lee, you can
see for yourself. I'm a new man.

I've been stagnating
for two years.

I'm not going to stagnate
any longer.

- Have some coffee.
- Thanks.

Bacon? Eggs?

No, thanks.

Have some toast.

Ah, you must eat something,
you know.

I can't.

Lee, sweet.

- Oh, it's alright, Lee, sweet.
- Oh..

Good babies always make
their mothers a little sick.

Oh, poor Martin.

You'll be tied down
worse than ever now.

What do you mean, tied down?

I don't have to go to Africa
to save mankind.

Plenty of mankind around here.

We'll see the world yet.

And we'll take the boy with us.

Even if he turns out to be
a girl, we'll take him.

Oh, Martin, going places!

In the meantime,
you watch me stand this town on its ear.

- Oh, doc.
- Dr. Arrowsmith.

- 'What is it?'
- It's about Johnny.

'Johnny?'

He wants to get his tooth
pulled.

Are you Johnny?

Uh-huh.

Alright, get around
to the front.

I guess I can't save mankind
till I've saved Johnny.

Poor Martin.

Come on, Johnny,
stand over here.

And let's have a look at
that tooth.

You boys sit on the sofa.
And you better hold that dog.

He might think
I'm hurting Johnny.

I wouldn't hurt him.
Only dentists do that.

And I'm no dentist.
Now open your mouth.

- Is that the one?
- Ah!

Yes, I thought it would be.

Alright, Johnny,
you sit over here.

You can shut your mouth.

Did you ever stop to consider,
Johnny"

...how wonderful nature is?

Uh-unh.

In giving us two chances
of growing teeth?

We get a practice set first.

Just to practice brushing
our teeth on.

Then we get a real set later.

And you know, Johnny, somehow..

...I don't think
you're making the most

of your tooth-brushing
opportunities.

Had coconut pie

for supper last night,
didn't you?

Uh-huh.

Alright.

Oh.

Now, Johnny, I'll tell you
what's gonna happen.

The pain is gonna leave
that tooth..

...and it's gonna come
all the way along this..

...this piece of string,
and disappear

'into something
I've got here in my hand.'

Now look out, Johnny,
it's coming!

- There you are.
- Mm! It's mine.

Mm! Mm!

Hey, boys, listen.

Here's half a dollar.

Now that's a soda apiece
and a dime over for gumdrops

then I can get the rest
of your teeth. Come on.

- Thank you, doc.
- Hurry, kids.

- Thank you.
- Thanks, doc.

What's the matter, Henry?
In trouble?

Well, my cattle got blackleg
out by my farm.

- Blackleg?
- Yeah.

Half my cows is dead already.

Blackleg.
What do you do for that?

Well, the state vege-te-terian,
he come.

- The state what?
- The, the cattle doctor.

- That's him over there.
- Oh, yes, the vet.

Yeah, he's got a needle thing
just like you got.

But he don't do no good.

The poor cows just
die quicker.

Come on, let's have
a look at it. Come on. Henry.

I'll be turning vet on you
before you know it.

That's a pretty bad swelling.

You better milk her
before she dies on you.

- Hello, doc.
- Howdy, doc.

- That's my cow there.
- Uh-huh.

I'm sorry, gentlemen,
but this corral

has been commandeered
as a state experimental station.

It ain't open to the public.

Are you the state veterinarian?

- That's me.
- Well, I'm Dr. Arrowsmith.

I don't believe
I know that name.

Well, I'm only a physician.

Well, if you've got
any influence

with these crazy Swedes
around here..

They seem to think
I'm a miracle man.

There's no medicine on earth
that's sure-fire.

Novak, here, says
you use a serum.

Sure, we use a serum.

Well, I like to fool around
with a microscope, doctor.

And if you'd let me have
a bit of your serum

and a blood specimen
from one of these sick animals

well, just for the fun
of the thing, you know.

Why, sure.

You, let me have some of that.

- Great things, these serums.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.

Lee?

- 'What is it?'
- Research, darling, research.

Blackleg, cattle disease.
I'm turning vet on you.

Saving cows may not be the same
thing as saving mankind

but it's a step
in the right direction.

Here's the blood and here's..

Lee..

- Lee!
- 'Yes, Martin.'

I was right. That vet serum
wasn't any good.

- Yes, Martin.
- Now. I'm ready to go.

We'll try mine in the morning.

Yes, Martin.

I'm gonna take it over
to Henry's

and shoot all his cattle full.

Yes, Martin.

You see, I'm gonna try
a different

a different strength dose

on every cow.

And then we can see
which gets well quickest

and which dies quickest.

Yes, Martin.

Darling, are you hungry?

Darling, are you hungry?

Uh..

Hungry? Yes, by gosh.
I'm famished.

Well, I'm not surprised,
it's after 10:00.

Well, yeah,
let's have some dinner.

How can I cook dinner when
you're using the whole stove

to cook your old cow medicine?

Well, we can have
some, uh, sandwiches.

We've had nothing
but sandwiches for days!

Well, w-what's the matter
with sandwiches, dear?

Oh!

Five days, Henry..

...and not a new case yet.

Not a one, doc.

I thought she was a goner,
but she looks alright now.

By golly, doc, y-you should be

state's vet in South Dakota.

Oh, I'm sorry
about that pair, Henry.

Yeah.

You-you should have shoot
your stuff in them, too.

No-no!
That's where you're wrong.

Listen..

...the ones we gave
the serum to are alright.

The ones we didn't give it to
are dead. Don't you see?

You have to try both ways
when you're experimenting.

That's how you find out
which way is best.

Yeah?
Well, I ain't kicking, doc.

- How much I owe you?
- Ah, forget it.

It was just for the fun.

Yeah, pretty good fun
for me alright, doc.

Thanks.

'Well,
next time you see Dr. Arrowsmith'

you can tell him from me
that I don't stand

for this kind of
monkey business.

And if he can't keep
off my cattle

he'd better keep out of my way.

I'll run him out of the state.

I'll see the governor.

See that his license
is taken away from him.

Hiya, doc.

How are ya, doc?

Say, I've got some things
to show you.

You got nothing to show me.

- Ah, you know best.
- 'Where you been, doc?'

- How are you, doc?
- Well, you're quite a vet, doc.

Best in town.

I'm back on the bellyaches now,
though.

- That's where you belong.
- How's that?

I say bellyaches
is where you belong.

I don't wanna say anything,
doc, but, uh..

...I don't quite like the tone
in your voice.

It's about time you understood.

What?

Suppose you try understanding

that I've made a blackleg serum
that's better than yours

because mine cures the cows,
and yours doesn't.

Now, when you get that
through your head, drop over

and I'll show you how
to make more like it.

If you think
you're gonna discredit me.

- And then hold me up..
- I'm not holding you up.

- I'm giving you this.
- Well, you see this?

It's what I'm giving you.

If you won't take
the serum from me..

...you'll take it
from the government.

I've sent my reports
and samples in

to Washington already.

Now, what was that you were
going to give me, doctor?

- Why, you!
- Hey! Hey!

- That's alright.
- You're alright, doc.

- Look at that.
- Right on the jaw, you know.

- Dr. Arrowsmith!
- What is it, Johnny?

They've been looking for you
all over.

- They? Who?
- Everybody at your house.

Your wife took sick
this morning after you left.

Good Lord.

I'll have to ask you
to be quiet, doctor.

I'm Dr. Hesselink of Leopolis.

They called me
when they couldn't locate you.

The baby?

But you can't blame yourself,
doctor.

You couldn't possibly
have foreseen it.

It would have happened anyway.

Well..

...as long as
I've still got her.

- Yeah.
- Thank you, doctor.

- Oh, Martin!
- My darling!

- Martin!
- Oh, Lee, sweet!

My darling.

There, shh.

I'll never forgive myself
for leaving you like this.

Shh, darling.

Now, now..

...now I can't have a baby.

- I'll have to bring you up.
- I know.

Make a great man
that everybody will wonder at.

Like, like your... Sondelius

or your Gottlieb, even.

Don't feel badly, Martin.

Lee, sweet.

If we could only..

Anyway, now we..

Oh, let's get out of this!

Now I remember.

I got a telegram in my pocket

for Doc Arrowsmith
from New York City.

Well, I..

I'm gonna love New York!

- It scares me though.
- Yeah, me too.

- I guess this is us.
- 'All of that?'

'No. Only the 25th floor.'

- Way up there?
- Mm-hm.

"McGurk Institute only."

Did you say 25th floor, Martin?

Twenty-fifth, yes.

Well, I'm not going up
that high yet.

- Oh, Lee.
- No, sir.

Now, I've got to get used
to this first.

- Right.
- Going up!

'Go.'

Uh, I'd like to see
Dr. Gottlieb, if I may.

- Have you an appointment?
- Well, he's expecting me.

I wired him I was coming.

My name's Arrowsmith,
Dr. Arrowsmith.

It's Dr. Tubbs you want to see.

Dr. Tubbs is our director.

You may come with me.

- Ah. Ah, Martin.
- Ah, doctor.

Martin, my boy! So..

...you have come back to me,
as I said you would.

Glad to be with you again, sir.

And you have come back
on your own feet

without any help from me.

- I am very glad.
- Thank you, sir.

So this is the big cow doctor
from the West, huh?

Arrowsmith.

Delighted to welcome you,
Dr. Arrowsmith.

A most interesting experiment

that of yours
with the cattle disease--

Yeah, uh-uh, Martin this is
Dr. Tubbs, our director.

- Sir.
- And this is Terry Wickett.

A fine chemist.

You will be able to meet
your other colleagues later.

- Well--
- But Dr. Gottlieb--

You will, you will leave

my prodigal son to me
for a moment, eh?

Let me conduct him to his
laboratory.

Do you think I know enough
to work here, Dr. Gottlieb?

N-now, let us be clear, Martin.

You will do your own work here

and you'll have no one
but yourself to satisfy.

A man should do fine work
with all this.

This? This does not make
a scientist.

His equipment is here.

And a man who cannot make
his own laboratory

out of toothpicks
and a piece of string

well, he should buy his ideas

along with his fine equipment.

God give me clear eyes
and freedom from haste.

God give me anger
against all pretense.

God keep me... looking
for my own mistakes.

God keep me at it
till my results are proven.

God..

...give me strength

not to trust to God.

Winter again, huh?
Well, it was bound to come.

I mean, it always has come.

That's a fine
mess of bugs you got here.

Shove them in the incubator and
let's go out and catch a drink.

Well, I'll put them
in the incubator

but if you don't mind,
I'm going home.

Oh, Martin,
for the love of Pete!

I'm sorry, Terry, but I don't
feel like drinking tonight.

- You are in a bad way. So long.
- So long, Terry.

- 'Is that you. Martin?'
- Yup.

How did things go today,
any better?

Oh, about as usual.

It just scares me to death
to see you this way.

Well, you won't be scared
much longer, Lee.

Oh, I've made up my mind
to chuck it, Lee

before they fire me.

I've been down there
two whole years

and haven't accomplished
a darn thing.

Oh, I'm no good. I-I'm worse at
science than I was at doctoring.

Well, you mustn't say such
things. Martin, I won't have it.

W-Why, for all you know,
you may be on the verge

of a great discovery
this very minute.

I've-I've got kind of a feeling
that you are.

Oh, now, don't look at me
like that. I mean it.

And you'll feel much better when
you've had your dinner, too.

It's a swell dinner. I bought
a beautiful fish this afternoon.

Fish.

Wish you'd get that old lab
out of your mind.

Oh, I'm through with the lab,
alright.

- Oh, I'm not hungry, Lee.
- Neither am I.

I think I'll go for a walk.

- I'll come along.
- Oh, Lee, in this snow?

Oh, I love snow. Come on,
now get your things.

We-we'll hike across the park,
Martin.

It'll be like
the Canadian Northwest tonight.

Martin!

The park's this way..

Why, Lee, sweet.

I thought you'd be coming
back here.

And you, you tagged along all
that way? Oh, you poor kid.

Oh, that's alright.
I didn't mind.

I'm a brute. You ought
to get a new husband.

Come inside.
I'll get you a taxi.

I don't want a taxi.

Martin, let me go up with you.

But, my dear, I..

...I have to work.
It may be late.

I don't care.
I won't bother you.

Martin, I promise
not to open my mouth.

Only please,
don't send me home.

It-it's-it's
such a scary night.

- I'll imagine things.
- What things?

Oh..

Things.

Alright. Come along.

Well.. What.

What is it?

It's got me. Something funny.

I left these three flasks

thick with bugs.

And these two
are still thick with them.

But this one..

They've completely disappeared
from this one.

Nothing ever happened
like that before.

Is that good luck or bad?
I wouldn't know.

I don't know. We're just
starting on something new.

- It's..
- Oh, then it is bad luck.

- I'm sorry.
- I don't know that it's bad.

Might be something.

...better than anything.

Quick, Lee. L-light that, uh..

Light the burner.

Give me that stain over there.

No, the other one.

'What is it, Martin?'

I was right. They're dead.

Bugs don't commit suicide.

- What killed 'em?
- Does it matter?

"Does it matter?" Oh, Lee!
I'll say it matters.

Something in this clear flask
killed them.

Maybe it was some fool mistake
of mine

but I've got to find out
what it is.

Because it-it might,
it might just happen that..

...that it turns out to be
the greatest thing..

- How?
- No, I won't say it!

I won't throw my luck.
I'm going to work it out.

Tomorrow, Martin.

No, no, no, to-tonight.
Right now.

Now, you go home
and get some sleep.

Listen, what I need..
I've got to have some of, uh..

Some clean flasks. Clean flasks.

Oh, that is enough of chemistry
for today, Terry.

We go out now and drink, uh

maybe one glass of beer. Eh?

Yeah, maybe one. Maybe two.
Sounds reasonable, chief.

I'll get Martin.

Say, where's he been
keeping himself lately?

I haven't seen him since..

- 'For the love of Pete!'
- 'Well, Martin, what is it?'

- Been working.
- 'You look it.'

All night long. Two nights.

A couple of weeks.
I don't know. Look.

Uh, notes.
Wish you'd look at 'em, chief.

Yeah.

Think I may have
found something.

- What?
- Don't ask me.

All I know is it's..

...it's hell on the bugs.

Dissolves 'em. Eats 'em up.

Slaughters 'em.
Wipes them off the..

- Ooh!
- Oh, you're groggy, aren't you?

Oh, it's alright, Terry.

I fancy I must have been
all in..

...when I started.

Oh, I need sleep.

Food.

I need a drink.

Oh, Terry, I need that
more than anything.

I'll get it for ya.

Here. Just wrap yourself
around this.

Two shakes of a Iamb's tail.

Oh-oh.

Martin, you have a big
thing here.

A great thing.

Terry, look.

Now..

...now you must find out
what it is.

How many different kinds
of bacteria it will destroy.

That way you will find out
what it is good for.

You will
begin working in earnest.

I am very glad, Martin.

Ah, I'm glad you feel
that way, sir.

Boy! You are shootin' high!

We're gonna celebrate.

I don't care how tired you are.

We're gonna celebrate.

I always knew the kid
had talent!

Thanks, Terry.

Martin, what do you mean
by getting up?

Oh, I got to go back to work.

Oh, look at you!

Wh-what's wrong with me?
I shaved.

You promised me
you'd stay in bed 12 hours

and you haven't
been there three.

I couldn't sleep
those three hours.

I'm not gonna have any more
of this, do you hear that?

I'm not gonna stand by
and see you kill yourself.

I'll walk out on you.
I mean it, Martin.

Oh, you mustn't ever say that
no matter how mad you get.

Oh, Lee, I love you so.

Even if this darned work
does tie me up.

I know I've been neglecting you.

But when this is over..

...I'll take time off every day

and we'll go to the movies
and we'll have friends in.

And I'll send you flowers
every morning.

Nice big red roses.

I'll even learn
to play bridge.

Oh, stand by, old girl.

You have some coffee?

You got the nastiest way of
treating me, Martin Arrowsmith.

As if I wanted flowers
every morning.

When all I want is for you
to take care of yourself.

You're a rotten husband.

But I'd rather have you than all
the decent ones in the world.

Martin, please go back to bed!

'What is it, Martin?'

- Where's my hat?
- Martin, what's the matter?

That cheap publicity hound Tubbs
is the matter!

Murder's the matter! Make a
cheap fake out of me, will he!

Oh, Martin, now,
you wait a minute!

Martin, you forgot your..

- Hello, doctor.
- How about a picture?

- Very good.
- Is Mr. Tubbs down yet?

Yes, Dr. Arrowsmith,
I'll see if he's engaged.

- No, I'll see for myself.
- Just a minute, doctor!

- Oh, good morning, Martin.
- Are you responsible for this?

I don't deny the responsibility.
I claim it.

'A slight
overstatement to catch the public eye..'

"A slight overstatement."

You tell the papers
that I can cure all disease

when you know I can't even
cure a whooping cough yet.

And you call that
"a slight overstatement."

'I-I can understand your surprise,
my dear--'

My surprise,
my only surprise

is that I don't wring
your fat neck.

Martin! My husband's
a violent man, doc--

'Yeah, I know your husband,
Mrs. Arrowsmith.'

And I mean the world to know him
and appreciate him as I do.

After all, he's still
got his name to make.

You've done that for me.
You've made my name smell

from one end of this country
to the other!

As a quack and a faker
and a racketeer!

Now, you call your reporters in

and tell them I'm through
with you

and your front page publicity,
and your cheapjack institute.

'I-I'd much rather tell them'

'of the paper I've just signed.'

Uh, yes, yes, Dr. Gottlieb.

- We are busy at the moment.
- Yeah, yeah.

Busy turning my friend Martin
into a megaphone.

- Oh, that's alright, chief.
- Something has happened.

But it's something
not altogether bad.

Martin is not the discoverer
we thought he was.

But you don't mean that someone
has stolen--

Yes, a Frenchman, d'Herelle

of the Pasteur Institute
of Paris.

He has published his report.

It is the same thing.

You have got into the newspapers
too soon, Dr. Tubbs.

Of course, there can be no talk
of the Head of Department now.

Uh, no raise of salary, either.

Ah.. Well, I..

...I've got to say something
to those reporters.

Martin.

I am sorry, Martin.

Come to my office later.

Oh, I love that man Gottlieb.
He might have gloated.

Where was your last port
of call?

Blackwater. St. Hubert Isle.

Did you hear anything there
about bubonic plague?

- 'No.'
- 'No.'

These three men died
of bubonic plague.

I tell you, gentlemen.

In West India,
is bubonic plague.

Are you certain of this,
Dr. Sondelius?

I have investigate.

If you don't believe me,
call up my good friend

Captain Gunnersson
of the steamer Sverker.

He will tell you.
He live by the hotel..

What the devil's the name
of that hotel in Hoboken?

My dear, Dr. Sondelius, I am not
questioning your authority.

But it's difficult to believe
that in the West Indies--

Nothing is difficult to believe
where rats are concerned.

I am no novice at rats neither,
Dr. Tubbs.

I am only novice
in scientific institutions

where all daylong,
scientists sit

and look through microscopes
and see nothing.

My dear Dr. Sondelius!

'In common justice
to a very fine institution--'

- Excuse me. Dr. Tubbs.
- 'Yes, Ms. Robbins?'

'A cable just came from London,
doctor.'

It's from the Colonial Office.

There, Dr. Sondelius,
is your confirmation.

I don't need none.

I should like the institute
to have a part in this.

Uh, Ms. Robbins,
ask Dr. Arrowsmith

if he can receive
Dr. Sondelius and myself.

Yes, doctor.

Well, what does Dr. Arrowsmith..

Only one year ago.
One little year, Dr. Tubbs

you were so excited about my
friend Arrowsmith's discovery.

Oh, yes, to be sure!

But that was..

Only something that killed
bacteria, that is all.

Thank you, Dr. Gottlieb!

- Yeah--
- I wonder..

- I think so.
- Arrowsmith.. Arrowsmith..

Don't I know that name?

- Young fellow?
- Yes.

- Dark?
- Yeah.

- Mustache?
- Mm-hm.

Sure! Didn't I got drunk
with him in Montreal?

No, Indianap.. Arrowsmith.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Uh, well, well, Arrowsmith,
it is the same.

- How are you, my friend?
- Ah..

So... you are become great!

You hold the stuff
of salvation in your hands.

I'd like to believe that

I can't quite believe it yet,
though.

Our Martin is a very careful
fellow, Dr. Sondelius.

Yeah.

He has only worked one year
on this discovery.

After five years, he may be
confident that he is right.

Five years?
He cannot wait for five years.

In five years,
the whole population

of the West Indies
will be wiped out.

'The bubonic plague
will be raging in New York.'

I don't know anything
about bubonic plague.

Ah, but I know.

I will teach you what I learn
in China and in India.

Give me blood germs.
Give me rats.

Rat fleas.
Little jumpy fleas.

I will teach you what I learned
in China and India.

I will show you.
Then I will go with you.

So, you are off to
the West Indies tomorrow, huh?

That's right. Sir.

We have called you in,
Terry and I

to give you
your final instructions.

What are they, sir?

Can you be trusted, Martin

to conduct an experiment
where you are going?

What is the experiment?

It is agreed that it will be
of value to know

what this stuff of yours
is good for.

Why, yes, of course.

Well..

...if you could give
injections to say..

...only half your patients

and sternly deprive
the other half of them..

Then you would know.

I certainly would, yes.

That is the experiment, Martin.

Well, I've done that sort of
thing with cattle, but..

Good Lord, chief,
these are human beings!

So, you're just a country
doctor, after all.

Country doctor be blowed.

I've got the bowels
of compassion in me.

These people are gonna be dying.

Dying and begging me for help.

And it's up to you to stand up
and take it on the chin.

So many men are kind
and neighborly.

So few ever add
to human knowledge.

Well, it's a good deal to ask.
Just the same.

Spare your pity for generations
not yet born, Martin.

And you may be the man
to end all plague.

Martin..

I am an old man, Martin.

I have been an honest scientist
all my life.

I look to you
to carry on my work after me.

Are you going to fail me?

No, sir, no.
I am not going to fail you.

Ah-huh.

I.-

...I knew.

Martin, for the old man's sake

keep your notes complete
down there.

And keep them in ink.

Say, you sound as though you
thought I wasn't coming back.

Ah, don't be silly.

'All ashore who's going ashore!'

I'm not much of a seeing-off
committee, Martin.

But good luck to you down there
and take care of yourself.

- Take care of Gottlieb.
- I will.

- Good luck to you, doctor.
- Yeah.

We will drink your health
in good West Indian rum.

- It's time, Lee.
- Yes, Martin.

- We won't say goodbye.
- No.

Will you try not to be
too lonely?

- I will, Martin.
- Alright.

- That's a brave girl.
- Excuse me, madam.

But which cabin
does the trunk belong in?

Oh, uh, in-in, Dr. Arrowsmith's,
of course.

- Yes, madam.
- Hey, wait.

- I haven't got a trunk.
- Now, don't confuse him.

- Martin, it's my trunk.
- What do you mean your--

Well, you had to find out
sooner or later

that I'm going along with you.

- Oh, Lee, you're not.
- Yes, I am, Martin.

- In spite of everything.
- You'll do no such thing.

Just listen, Sondelius.
George, hold that gangplank!

- On board?
- What is it, doctor?

- Get her ashore.
- Have to step lively, madam.

No, I won't step lively.
There's no use arguing with me.

I-I told you I wouldn't
let you go down there

without me and I meant it.
And you can't put me off.

Nobody but the captain can
put me off. I've got a ticket.

- No, no, Lee, please!
- Oh, I love you.

- She stays.
- Rush to the cabin, madam.

'I shall divide
my group into two halves.'

'To one, I shall give
injections of our serum.'

I shall deprive the other half
of any injections whatsoever.

I shall then watch which half

resists the plague
more successfully.

When I have done that, I shall
know what our serum is worth.

Good heavens!
The man's a lunatic.

Order, gentlemen. Order. Order.

I can handle this. Order.

Do you mean to say
you can't find

any other way
to test your serum?

Well, there is no other way.

You call yourself a doctor

and want to see half
your patients die?

Oh, no, sir, no, no,
th-the uninjected half

will be fully as well taken
care of as they are at present.

You actually propose using
the inhabitants of this island

as you use guinea pigs
in your laboratories?

Well, y-you put it unpleasantly,
Sir Robert

but that is what I do
precisely propose

and for precisely
the same benefit to mankind.

Well, we decline the honor
in the name of civilization.

- 'Hear, hear!'
- 'Hear, hear!'

I-I think civilization's
on my side, Sir Robert.

You see only this one epidemic
on this island.

I have to see whole continents

and generations of children
yet unborn

'in China, in India,
and even, it seems'

'in your own West Indies.'

I have to say to all humanity

this is the prevention,
this is the cure."

You may count on it as you count
on quinine for malaria

and-and castor oil
for the bellyache.

Because that is what
humanity wants to hear.

'Humanity is not
going to hear it at our expense.'

- 'Well said, Sir Robert!'
- 'Well said.'

While you're in this island,
you stick to your doctoring.

Now that, sir, is for me to say,
not you.

What the devil do you mean?

I mean that if you
prevent this experiment

my instructions leave me free
to withhold my serum

until you come to heel.

- Confound your instructions.
- But what.

What are we going to do,
Sir Robert?

Sir Robert, hadn't we better
reconsider?

Order. Order.
This meeting is adjourned.

'But, Sir Robert,
what shall we do?'

Die like men..

'...before we let these bandits'

turn us into a shambles.

If it weren't
for the quarantine.

...I'd drive them off the island
with whips and scorpions.

Sir Robert is quite right.

I tell you this..

Oh, Martin,
that was a fine fight.

Oh, if I hadn't lost it.

Uh, you didn't mean that.
About holding the serum back?

I made them think I meant it.
Call me inhuman!

I'll show them
what the word really means!

How's that, Gottlieb?

Dr. Arrowsmith.

My name is Oliver Marchand.
Dr. Marchand.

I have my MD
from Howard University.

Oh, yes.

I've been listening
to your proposal, doctor.

I need hardly say that it has
my complete sympathy.

Well, thank you.

May I offer you an alternative?

If you care to come along
with me

I believe I can provide
the opportunity you're after.

- Did you hear that, Gustav?
- Yeah, I hear.

It will be a privilege
to assist you.

And if you succeed,
it will be a privilege

for my people to have
served the world.

How soon will you be starting?

Listen, if you'll come over
to my, to my place..

Leora!

You don't have to tell me.
It came off alright.

Ah, for once you're wrong, Lee.

It couldn't have come off worse.

That is until my savior
turned up.

This is my savior.
Dr. Marchand, my wife.

- How do you do?
- Come in, doctor.

But we've got to move fast.
No time to lose.

Say, I'll put my things in here,
Lee

if you'll throw some clothes
in a knapsack, will you?

- You're going away?
- You bet I'm going.

- With him?
- With him. God bless him.

He had the nerve to take a
chance and let me do my stuff.

- Oh, that's fine.
- Yes.

'He's a man after my own heart.'

- Wait, where are you going?
- To his district.

Island of Carib.
Native population.

Plague raging. Ideal conditions.

- Are you going now?
- As soon as we get packed.

Sondelius is out chasing up
his squad of rat catchers.

You might put his things
in, too, will ya?

Excuse me, doctor.

- I'll wait outside.
- Martin!

- Martin!
- What is it, Lee?

Are you planning
to leave me behind?

Ah, Lee, I've got to.

I didn't come here
to be left behind, Martin.

I should have choked you before
I brought you along here.

Well, you did everything
but choke me to stop me.

But now that I'm here, I'm not
gonna be left behind, Martin.

I've come here
to look after you.

How can I look after you
if you leave me behind?

- I'll be alright, sweet.
- How do I know that?

I-it might get you.

And if it did, there's nobody
but me could nurse you.

And even if it didn't get you,
Martin

I'd go mad being without you.

I mean it, I'd go mad!

Oh, can't you see, I haven't
got any life beside you.

I'm you and I've got
to be with you.

You cannot leave me behind.

Ah, Lee, sweets,
be reasonable.

We don't know
where we'll be living

or what we'll be getting into.

I daren't take you along
with me.

It's no place for a woman.

Darn being a woman!

Oh, give me the comfort
of, of knowing you're safe.

- Alright.
- There's a brave girl.

Now. Now, will you help me
with this knapsack?

Bella?

Will you come in here, Bella?

Bella, I-I want you to pack
the doctors' knapsacks for them.

I want you to put in their,
uh, pajamas, the thin ones.

And their underwear
and their socks.

And, Bella, their, uh, razor
and toothbrushes and toothpaste.

Can I help you, Martin?
I'm alright now.

- Sorry I cracked up.
- That's a good girl.

Now, here we are.
Alcohol, serum..

...hypodermics, notebooks.
Yes, they're ready.

- Fountain pen.
- Fountain pen. Thanks, Lee.

How about these, Martin?
You want these?

Those? No, I don't want those.

Hey..

Have you got any water
boiling on the stove?

There should be.

Stick the whole works in,
will you?

- I can't leave those around.
- What is it?

Ah, plague virus.

Enough to kill
half a dozen armies.

Oh.

- Everything's ready, missy.
- Oh.

Alright.

♪ Lord save us ♪

♪ Lord.. ♪

♪ Lord.. ♪

♪ Lord Lord ♪

♪ Lord Lord Jesus ♪

♪ Why hast thy turned thy face
away Lord? ♪♪

I'm off to glory, Lee.
Wish me luck.

I can't go outside.

- Will you kiss me goodbye here?
- Oh.

No, no, Lee.
Lee, steady, old girl.

This is only the first
of our big hikes, Lee.

If I pull this thing off
on Marchand's island

I'll be a great man
in science.

I do love you, Martin.

Oh, wait for me, Lee.
I won't be long.

Here's where we land,
doctor. It's the island of Carib.

You can see the jetty
right ahead of us.

The worst-infected place
in the entire colony.

You'll have plenty
of opportunity here

to do what you want.

Voodoo.

Their voodoo is just about
as effective

as anything we've been
able to do.

Yeah, well, we show them
a new kind of voodoo.

The only thing to do
with this place is to burn it.

If we can only get the
authority.

Oh, we'll take the authority.

General Sondelius
is now in command.

Good, we'll get these people
out of here

and find them a clean place.

We'll take off our coats
and get to work.

We'll get in the supplies.

- The medical supplies.
- And build a hospital.

Sure. We'll kill the rats.

The bugs. The germs.

Fine, I'll get these people
out of here.

'Good.'

Here. Here
is food. Canned food.

- Where is the owner?
- The owner lives in London.

- How about the agent?
- The agent, he's dead.

- Well, where.. Who are you?
- Me? I'm watchman.

Good. You are a fine watchman.

Break down the door. Come on.

What the devil is the meaning
of this?

You have empty bunkhouses
and beds.

We want them right away
for emergency hospital.

Well, if you think
you're going to bring that

filthy plague
onto this plantation

you can go to blazes!

That's just where we are going.

We accept your hospitality.

- Martin, move in.
- Come on.

- Alright, Gustav.
- 'Yeah, Martin.'

Don't forget,
half to get the injection

half to be sternly deprived.

- 'Yeah!'
- Alright, Marchand, let 'em in.

We're off, Gottlieb.

Alright, two lines here.
Right and left.

Go on. Go on through.

- Don't we get nothing, doctor?
- Not on the right. Keep moving.

It's Dr. Arrowsmith's orders.

Half to the left.
Half to right.

Oh, you ought to be glad
to be hurting.

Oh, I'm sorry, I can't do
anything for him, poor baby.

You take him.

No, no, no, no, don't holler
before you're hurting.

Ah, I am clumsy. I..

That's four hypodermics
I broke this morning.

Get some more
from Dr. Arrowsmith.

Hot, yeah?

Ah..

I think I sit down.

Just a little.

I apologize if I seemed to be

u-unfriendly last night, doctor.

Didn't know what you were
up to then.

I approve thoroughly.

Indeed, it's splendid
what you're doing, doctor.

No objections to giving us
a shot?

We stood in line with the rest.

We'll step over to the other
if you like.

Oh, doctor, uh,
this is my daughter.

And this is, uh, Mrs. Lanyon
from your New York

Marooned here
with the rest of us.

That's quite alright if you'll

you'll get into line
with the rest.

I didn't mean
to be rude just now

but, but you took me
by surprise.

I wish you'd find something
I could do to help you.

- You?
- Yes.

I feel an awful rotter
doing nothing.

- You!
- Why?

Do I strike you as being
so hopelessly useless?

If I had a twin sister..

...I think she'd be rather
like you.

That's how you strike me.

That's an original compliment.

That's no compliment,
it's a scientific fact.

Now, would you pass along,
please and let science carry on?

Alright, Ms. Twyford.

Dr. Sondelius sick, sir.

Would you come right away?

Sondelius sick?

What's the matter with him?
Here. Marchand!

You take over for me.
I've got to..

Hey, Gustav!

What is it, Gustav?
What is it?

I don't know, Martin. I..

...I'm not feel so good all day,
but now I..

Good Lord.

Maybe the bugs have got me,
Martin.

You wouldn't take your shot
before

but you're gonna take it now.
Quick. Bring me..

- ...one of those trays.
- Oh, at my age!

I was just thinking, Martin.

I am nearly 60 years of age.

I could lift weights once
no sailor could touch.

And now, I'm so weak. I..

- Bring me a glass of rum.
- No, later.

You're going to take this shot
now and go back

to Blackwater and have
Leora nurse you.

Yeah, I, who have quarantined
so many..

I-it is my turn now, huh?

Yeah.

Why the devil didn't I
bring Leora along with me?

No chance?

Steadily worse, I'm afraid.

Oh, thanks.
Don't let us keep you.

- Rain.
- Oh, only a shower.

I'll take you home.

No, you go, Mr. Twyford.
I'll wait, if you don't mind.

But you'll get soaked.

Martin..

...you ever think..

...the jokes God plays?

The best one is on the tropics.

He made them so beautiful

and so rich.

And then He give them
the plague.

Alright. I am quite peaceful.

Martin, did you ever see Sto..

You ever see Stockholm?

I would like just once more

to see the Strandvagen at dawn..

...with the young snow
falling white..

...and stagger home through it

with one more last good drunk.

Yeah. Ha-ha. Ah.

I feel fine now.

I think I'm a little weak, huh?

Martin... it's a great life.

Martin, you try to save
all these poor devils.

Save all of them.

Let science experiments go.

I never knew before..

...people could hurt me so much.

I think I sleep... just a little.

I'm sorry.

He used to troupe
all over the country

lecturing on heroes of health.

Now he's one of them, alright.
Why, it was good of you to come.

'You take it pretty calmly,
doctor.'

Oh, one of your field officers
in the war died in battle

you couldn't stop to mourn
for him, could you?

You must come home with us.
You must let us put you up.

Well, thanks. I,
I'd love to.

But I can't come
till Marchand and I have--

'Let me send
down two men to do it for you.'

I'd rather do it myself,
if you don't mind.

It's little enough.

And then?

Why, then, we,
we carry on, of course.

Bella.

Bella.

Oh, don't go in, I'm too on edge
to turn in yet.

You know my whole life's been

building up to
what I've done today.

I don't want to let down.

All our troubles will soon be
over now.

Oh, it may sound like
an unscientific boast

but... somehow on a night
like this..

...I can't help believing it.

And I can't believe that
anything ever happened before

this plague or anything will
ever happen after it.

Oh, steady now, Mrs. Lanyon,
steady.

You mustn't lose your nerve.

You are too gallant for that.

You are so wrong.

There's nothing gallant
about me.

I was never meant for
this kind of thing.

I've never learned about
realities.

'Oh, but I saw you
down there with all those natives.'

That wasn't gallantry.

That was hysteria.

'Hysteria over falling in love
with you.'

'I have fallen terribly
in love with you.'

I don't believe in
mincing words.

I believe in saying
what's on my mind.

I know nothing can be
done about it.

I'm not a child.

I, I've never known
women like you.

You belong to the great class
of things

I had to give up for work.

You make my life suddenly..

...very empty.

But terribly exciting.

You are too heroic to mean that.

- You're stone.
- Oh, I wish I were.

You couldn't really have
a care a hang about me.

You'd be just curious,
that's all.

I dare say, it's lucky
I realized that tonight.

Goodnight.

Arrowsmith, Arrowsmith,
where are you?

Well, there you are.

Uh, your friend Marchand
wants to see you.

Hello, Marchand.
Nothing wrong down below?

I've been called back
to Blackwater.

I hope your working with me
hasn't made trouble for you.

The port doctor is down.

It seems there's no one
but me to call on now.

Ah, you'll have to go, then.

That means I'll have to stay
longer than I expected.

I had intended, uh, putting
Marchand in charge of our show

but now..

Well, somebody's
gotta watch things.

You're welcome to stay here
as long as you care to, doctor.

- Ten days should do it, doctor.
- Ten days.

Is there anything I can do
for you in Blackwater?

Well, you might look in
on my wife, Marchand.

Tell her..
Oh, tell her not to worry.

Certainly.

Yes, yes, uh, hold a while,
please.

He'll be here in a minute.

- It's for you, Arrowsmith.
- Oh, thanks.

- Hello.
- Dr. Arrowsmith?

This is Marchand calling
from Blackwater.

Yes, Marchand, what is it?

I.-

...I can't hear you, Marchand.

Marchand! Marchand!

Are you there, Marchand?

Operator, operator, get me

the Surgeon General's
office back again.

Dr. Marchand.

Well, you've got
to make them answer.

Well, then send somebody
over there at once.

Dr. Marchand's ill.

This is Dr. Arrowsmith at Carib.

No, no, I-I'm two hours away.

Send somebody at once.
Anybody.

Oh, my dear fellow!

It's Marchand.
Oh, it's more than Marchand.

It's my wife. I've got
to get her over here.

I've got to. She'll be alone
in that hole now.

Bring her here, of course.

Why, certainly, bring her here.

- How soon can I get her here?
- How soon?

What if I start now? I mean..

Have you got a boat of some
sort?

Why, yes. I'll get it ready.

Bella..

Oh, Martin..

Ma..

Martin..

You have to come home.

Help me, Martin.

Martin..

Oh, Mart.

Oh!

Oh, Martin!

Please.

Gone. Missy gone.

'Lee! Leora,
wake up. We're here!'

Lee!

Lee!

She's dead.

I thought she'd be safe!

But she's dead.

- We'd better pick her up.
- Yes.

No, let me.

I'd rather.

Lee.

I loved you, Lee.

You knew that, didn't you?

Didn't you know
I couldn't love anyone else?

Didn't you know that, Lee?

Go on, give them all the serum.
Shoot 'em full of it. Come on.

Open the doors, let 'em all in!

- Open the doors!
- Come on!

- 'Oh, let them in!'
- 'Come, come.'

Children,
let them in. Go on. Hurry, hurry.

Shoot 'em full of it.
Get all your..

Doctor, I-I just heard.
Oh, great job.

Thank you
in the name of the colony.

I'm licked! You
never licked me. But I'm licked.

Go on, line up.
Get your shot.

Come on, get over there.
Get your shot, all of you.

- Ha, ha! Shoot 'em full of it.
- 'Come on.'

Go on, line up, get your shot.
Get your shot.

Shoot 'em full of serum.

Kill all the rats.

Burn all the villages.

Ooh.

To hell with the experiment!
To hell with science!

To hell with Gottlieb!

Lee.

Oh, Lee.

Martin! My dear Martin!
Congratulations.

There's never been anything
like it. It's stupendous!

Letters from
the British government.

You have ended plague.

Oh, my dear chap,
I'm so sorry

in my enthusiasm of the moment,
I forgot.

My deepest sympathy.

Great story, Dr. Arrowsmith.
Tell us all about it. Do.

Yes.

Keep on the left. On the left,
folks.

- Oh.
- Go down the left, folks.

You'll have to hurry,
my dear fellow.

My-my secretary will look after
your luggage for you.

Uh, you know, the institute..

Hold it. Right there.
Right there. Please.

- Just one moment.
- That's fine. One more.

- 'Hold still.'
- 'Just a minute, doctor.'

We'll get another one,
doctor. Please.'

- 'Hold-hold on.'
- 'One more now. One more.'

- 'Very nice, doctor.'
- 'Right this way, doctor.'

- Will you..
- One more, doctor.

- 'What've you got to tell us?'
- Hello, Martin.

- Hello, Terry.
- Sorry, Martin.

- Thanks, Terry.
- How was it, Martin?

- Oh, bungled it, Terry.
- I'm afraid you have.

- What'll Gottlieb say?
- You'll find that out.

- How is the old man, huh?
- Well, I'm afraid he's..

- 'Dr. Gottlieb?'
- Yeah?

Are you ready, Dr. Gottlieb?

What for should I be ready, eh?

For the reception, doctor.

They're bringing him up
in the elevator now.

Hm. He will come to me.

He is my son.

More than my son.

Even if you do make a clown
out of him.

Out of my laboratory with you,
your nonsense.

Boy.

Uh, I feel..

...somewhat..

Ah, Dr. Mayne. How do you do?
Glad you're here.

- Where's Dr. Gottlieb?
- Uh, we'll sing for him.

Uh, will you fetch Dr. Gottlieb,
please?

No, no, please.
I'll go to him.

Oh, ahem, yes, yes. Um, m-master
and pupil, you know?

I want to confess.

You gave me everything
you knew of truth.

And when you gave me my chance
as well, I betrayed you.

Oh, I had an excuse perhaps.

But I don't want
to go into that.

Because whatever I may
have accomplished

I did not add to knowledge.
I did the humane thing.

I lost sight of science.

'Now say what you've got to say
and throw me out.'

'Dr. Gottlieb!'

Dr. Gottlieb!

Terry! Terry!

- Terry! Terry!
- Martin.

- Martin, what's happened?
- What's happened?

- Dr. Gottlieb!
- Terry!

- He's had a stroke.
- Dr. Gottlieb.

This is most unfortunate.

I mean,
coming at a time like this.

He was alright in the morning.

He's gone down
into the darkness

believing in you, Martin.

He never understood
a word I said.

- Not a word.
- No, no, no. Well, of course.

He couldn't have, Martin.

But, uh, you really must pull
yourself together, you know?

We've, we've got to get through
with this luncheon

in spite of Dr. Gottlieb's
regrettable collapse.

But, uh, b-before we go in

I-I want to tell you that from
now on you are department head

with 15,000 a year.

Ha! I-I guess that ought to
buck you up, eh?

How are you, Martin?

You didn't expect to see me,
did you?

I know all you've been through.

If my friendship has
any meaning for you

will you take that?

For all it's worth, Martin?

I'm taking him away now
where he can be looked after.

But I wanna tell you
what I'm going to do then.

I'm gonna clear out
of this swell joint

with all its swell equipment
and publicity.

I'm gonna build my own lab
in the Vermont Woods

and I'm going to work,
and do nothing but work.

And I wouldn't wonder
if you'd want to do it with me

because he counted on you
to carry on after him.

If you want me,
you'll know where to find me.

Uh, uh, we are ready, Martin.

Joyce, my dear.
Thank you.

But will you try
and think kindly of me

even if you
never see me again?

I see, Martin.

Uh, Martin,
w-we are ready.

Ready, are you?
Well, so am I.

- Martin!
- It's alright.

It's just a few things I wanna
take along with me.

Notes, notes,
where are those notes? Ha!

- 'But, my dear Martin! But..'
- Now, what else? Oh, yes.

'Why,
what-what in heaven's name'

'are you going to do with..'

It's just an old friend. Did
well enough by me before I came.

It'll do well enough by me
after I'm gone.

- 'Gone?'
- Sorry. I can't stay..

...to that luncheon after all.

'Why, surely the institute'

'deserves better of you
than this.'

It certainly does. You know
what old Gottlieb used to say?

That the man who couldn't
make his own lab

out of a few toothpicks
and a bit of string

had better buy his ideas
along with his fine equipment.

Martin,
what are you thinking of?

The rest of my life.
So long, Tubbs.

Hey, Terry.
Hold your horses!

Terry, wait!
I'm coming with you!

Lee and I,
we're both coming with you!

Terry, hey!
