[HORSE AND WAGON APPROACHING]

Charles: HO.

[JACK BARKING]

Laura: HI, JACK. Mary: HI, JACK. GIRLS,

CAN YOU BRING IN THE LAUNDRY FOR ME?

SURE, MA. COME ON, LAURA.

Charles: YOU Go ALONG WITH YOUR SISTERS.

Laura: COME ON, CARRIE.

HERE. I'LL TAKE THOSE THINGS IN.

NO. IF ANYBODY BREAKS MY NEW LAMP CHIMNEY, IT BETTER BE ME.

ALL RIGHT.

OW!

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

OH! I RUINED MY BEST PAIR OF STOCKINGS.

LET ME TAKE A LOOK.

OH, IT'S JUST A SCRATCH.

YOU BETTER PUT SOMETHING ON THAT.

YEAH. ABOUT A HALF A SPOOL OF THREAD.

DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT THE STOCKINGS.

I'LL GET YOU ANOTHER PAIR.

IT'S MY OWN FAULT ANYWAY.

SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THIS PIECE OF WIRE OFF OF HERE.

OH, CARRIE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

I'M SORRY.

WELL, DON'T MOVE AND DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING.

OH...

THIS IS SUCH A MESS.

I'M SORRY. JACK MADE ME SPILL IT.

WELL, JACK WILL JUST HAVE TO BE MORE CAREFUL.

HELLO, CHARLES!

Charles: HI, REVEREND!

WHOA!

Caroline: GOOD AFTERNOON, REVEREND ALDEN.

CAROLINE.

I THOUGHT YOU'D BE IN STODDARD.

THAT I WAS, BUT WE FELL SHORT OF THE MONEY WE NEEDED

TO RAISE THE CHURCH.

AH...l DON'T KNOW. MAYBE YOU BETTER SPEAK TO CHARLES.

OH, NO. NO, I DIDN'T COME TO ASK FOR MONEY.

WHAT I DO NEED IS A VOLUNTEER TO DO SOME BAKING.

OH!

YOU SEE, WE PLAN TO HOLD A BAZAAR SUNDAY.

SOME OF THOSE FINE PIES OF YOURS JUST MIGHT PUT US OVER THE TOP.

NELS OLESON DONATED SOME FLOUR AND SUGAR.

I SEE.

UM...I'D LIKE TO DO WHAT I CAN TO HELP, REVEREND. UH...

Charles: HEY, REVEREND!

Reverend: CHARLES.

Charles: I DIDN'T EXPECT TO SEE YOU TILL SUNDAY.

WE WERE GONNA STOP BY, TAKE A LOOK AT THE NEW CHURCH.

ARE YOU GOING TO STODDARD?

WE'RE GOING THROUGH STODDARD ON THE WAY TO TURNBULL'S PIG FARM.

GONNA PICK UP SOME HAMS AND BACON

AND STOP BY JOHNSON'S MEADOW ON THE WAY BACK.

OH, CAROLINE, I'M SORRY.

I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THE FAMILY HAD PLANS.

CHARLES, REVEREND ALDEN NEEDS ME TO DO SOME BAKING.

THEY DIDN'T GET ENOUGH MONEY FOR THE CHURCH,

AND THEY'RE HAVING A BAZAAR OVER THERE ON SUNDAY.

WELL, THAT'S NO PROBLEM. WE DON'T LEAVE FOR TWO DAYS.

WELL, YES, BUT..

THE PIES WOULD HAVE TO BE FRESH.

I'D HAVE TO BAKE ON SATURDAY.

NOW, CAROLINE, I APPRECIATE THE THOUGHT,

BUT THE CHILDREN ARE PROBABLY COUNTING ON THIS TRIP.

REVEREND, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE CHILDREN.

I'LL JUST POSTPONE THE TRIP FOR A WEEK.

OH, NO!

CHARLES, YOU GO AHEAD WITH THE CHILDREN.

IT'LL BE EASIER FOR ME ANYWAY,

BAKING WITHOUT EVERYBODY UNDERFOOT.

LOOKS LIKE YOUR BAKER'S ALREADY MADE UP HER MIND.

CAROLINE, MRS. FOSTER AND I ARE GOING TO DRIVE OVER ON SUNDAY.

NOW, IF YOU'D LIKE, YOU COULD RIDE ALONG

AND JOIN THE FAMILY AT JOHNSON MEADOW.

YES. GOOD. THANK YOU.

REVEREND, SOLOMON HIMSELF COULDN'T HAVE FOUND A BETTER SOLUTION.

YOU KNOW, THE LORD MAY WORK IN STRANGE WAYS,

BUT SOMETIMES FOR HIS MINISTERS,

IT'S JUST DOWN RIGHT EMBARRASSING.

- HA HA HA! - NOT TOO EMBARRASSING

TO HAVE A BITE OF SUPPER WITH US, I HOPE.

WELL, NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT...

I WAS JUST READING THIS ARTICLE HERE

ABOUT A COUPLE OF FAMILIES IN SPRINGFIELD.

WENT INTO TOWN, LEFT THEIR DOORS OPEN.

WHEN THEY CAME BACK, THEY'D BEEN CLEANED OUT LOCK, STOCK, AND BARREL.

MY GOODNESS.

I JUST WONDER WHAT THIS COUNTRY'S COMING TO.

BE A GOOD IDEA IF YOU KEPT THE DOOR LOCKED WHILE WE'RE GONE.

ALL RIGHT, CHARLES, I'LL KEEP THE DOOR LOCKED.

BUT DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT ME.

YOU JUST GO ON AND HAVE A GOOD TIME.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS THE CHILDREN WILL.

IF I DIDN'T KNOW BETTER,

I'D SAY YOU WERE TRYING TO GET RID OF ME.

AW, CHARLES.

WELL, YOU MAKE THIS WHOLE THING SOUND LIKE A HOLIDAY FOR YOU.

WELL, EVERYBODY LIKES TO HAVE A DAY ALL TO HERSELF

ONCE IN A WHILE.

JUST TO THINK AND RELAX.

RELAX. YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND THE WHOLE DAY BAKING PIES.

[GIGGLES]

AND I'M GOING TO SPEND THE WHOLE DAY THINKING ABOUT YOU.

THAT MAKES ME FEEL GOOD.

I LOVE YOU.

OH, I LOVE YOU.

GOOD NIGHT.

YOU'RE SURE YOU'RE GOING TO MISS ME?

MM-HMM.

ALL RIGHT.

[GIGGLES]

ALL RIGHT, ALL ABOARD!

IF YOU CAN'T GET A BOARD, GET A PLANK!

I'LL GET ABOARD.

WELL, YOU BETTER OR THE INGALLS TRAIN WILL LEAVE WITHOUT YOU.

COME ON, JACK. THAT'S MY GIRL.

HEY, ARE YOU ALL SET, MARY?

I FORGOT MY GLASSES.

Mary: AH!

Laura: HA HA HA!

Charles: NOW, YOU READY, LAURA?

I FORGOT SOMETHING.

Caroline: OH!

Charles: I'M GLAD YOU DIDN'T FORGET ANYTHING.

- HERE. - ALL RIGHT. WHAT'S THIS?

OH, JUST SOME BANDAGES AND PEROXIDE

IN CASE THE GIRLS GET HURT.

OH, THAT SMELLS A LITTLE MORE INTERESTING.

IT'S APPLE, FRESH OUT OF THE OVEN. ENJOY IT.

I'D ENJOY IT A LOT MORE IF WE WEREN'T LEAVING YOU HERE BY YOURSELF.

OH, I'LL BE FINE. YOU JUST GO AHEAD AND HAVE A GOOD TIME.

ALL RIGHT. YOU BE SURE TO LOCK THE DOOR AND DON'T OVERDO.

CHARLES, IT'S ONLY FOR ONE DAY.

ALL RIGHT. ARE YOU READY NOW?

Laura: YES.

ALL ABOARD!

BYE, MA.

BYE. HAVE A GOOD TIME.

- THANKS. - BYE, MA.

BYE, LAURA. ENJOY YOURSELF.

I WILL.

Caroline: THERE YOU Go.

Charles: SEE YOU DAY AFTER TOMORROW.

Caroline: YES. BE SURE YOUR SISTER STAYS SITTING DOWN IN THE WAGON!

Laura: I WILL!

Mary: BYE, MA!

Laura: BYE, MA!

OHH...

[SIGH]

[SIGH]

[HORSE AND WAGON APPROACHING]

Caroline: DR. BAKER.

Baker: WHOA.

AFTERNOON, CAROLINE. IS CHARLES AROUND?

NO. HE AND THE CHILDREN LEFT EARLY THIS MORNING FOR TURNBULL'S PLACE.

OH, DOGGONE IT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

WELL, I GOT A SQUEAKING LEFT WHEEL HERE,

AND I WAS COUNTING ON CHARLES TO FIX IT FOR ME.

I CAN'T HELP YOU WITH YOUR WHEEL,

BUT I DO HAVE SOME FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE.

WHY DON'T YOU COME ON INSIDE,

HAVE A PIECE OF PIE AND SOME MILK?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I HAVEN'T EATEN SINCE BREAKFAST.

IS THAT YOUR SECRET, CAROLINE?

WHAT?

WELL, DO YOU ALWAYS BAKE PIES IN YOUR BARE FEET?

OH!

NO. I, UH...

I FORGOT TO PUT MY SHOES BACK ON.

YOU LOOK A LITTLE FLUSHED. IS SOMETHING WRONG?

OH, NO. I'M JUST HOT.

I'VE BEEN BAKING ALL DAY.

NOTHING ELSE, HUH?

NO. I DON'T THINK SO.

I CUT MY LEG, BUT I PUT A BREAD POULTICE ON IT.

WELL, THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING I WOULD HAVE PRESCRIBED.

BUT I'LL TAKE A LOOK AT IT BEFORE I LEAVE.

YOU KNOW, I WISH MORE PEOPLE WOULD TAKE CARE OF THINGS RIGHT AWAY

INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM GO ON AND ON.

DOC BAKER!

I SPENT A HALF DAY LOOKING FOR YOU.

YOU GOT TO COME QUICK.

WELL, TAKE IT EASY, FRED. WHAT'S WRONG?

MY BOY TOBY. HE FELL OUT OF THE LOFT.

HE'S HURTING BAD. HIS ARM'S BROKE, I THINK.

Baker: WELL, DON'T WORRY, AND SAVE ME A PIECE OF THAT PIE, CAROLINE.

MR. CULLERS, IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO HELP?

NO, THANKS, MRS. INGALLS.

THE MISSIS IS WITH TOBY.

[HORSES GALLOP OFF]

OH.

YOU'RE A VERY LUCKY BOY, TOBY.

A SLIGHT CONCUSSION AND A SPRAINED ELBOW

IS NOT BAD FOR SOMEONE WHO TRIES TO FLY OUT OF A LOFT.

AM I GONNA BE OK, DR. BAKER?

YOU'LL BE A TRIFLE SORE FOR A WHILE.

I SWEAR I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO WITH THAT BOY, DOCTOR.

HE JUST WON'T LISTEN.

HMM.

WELL, TOBY WILL LISTEN FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS.

YOU'RE NOT TO GET OUT OF THAT BED, YOU UNDERSTAND, TOBY?

YES, SIR.

WON'T YOU STAY TO SUPPER, DOCTOR?

I'VE GOT IT ON THE STOVE.

WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT, MRS. CULLERS,

BUT I STILL HAVE A COUPLE OF CALLS YET TO MAKE.

BETTER NOT TRY MAKING THEM NOW, DOC.

SEE THOSE CLOUDS? REAL GULLYWASHER COMING.

YOU SURE, BRAD? I SHOULD BE BACK IN WALNUT GROVE TONIGHT.

WELL, THE SHAPE THAT RIG OF YOURS IS IN,

YOU'LL BE LUCKY TO GET HOME BY TOMORROW NIGHT.

COME MORNING, I'M GONNA PULL THAT AXLE...

TRY TO STRAIGHTEN IT,

OR ELSE YOU'LL RUIN TWO GOOD WHEELS.

WELL, I WOULDN'T WANT TO DO THAT.

IT SURE SOUNDS LIKE AN AWFUL LOT OF TROUBLE.

I HATE TO PUT YOU FOLKS OUT.

NO TROUBLE AT ALL, DOC. GLAD TO HAVE YOU.

I'LL HAVE SUPPER ON THE TABLE IN A LITTLE WHILE.

THANK YOU.

[THUNDER]

[SIGH]

[BREATH ES DEEPLY]

[cow LOWING]

[BELL JANGLES]

OH, NO.

OH, COW.

[MOO]

UH!

[THUNDER]

UH! COME ON!

[THUNDER]

[MOO]

UH!

UHH!

[MOO]

UHH!

OH!

[THUNDER]

[THUNDER]

AW! HEY, GIRLS!

GET THE BEDROLLS AND GET UNDER THE WAGON!

OW!

COME ON, HURRY UP! GET UNDER, CARRIE.

WATCH OUT FOR THAT SKILLET. IT'S HOT.

FISH ARE COOKED THROUGH. I'LL SERVE THEM UP.

I'VE GOT THE MILK.

GOOD.

DOES THIS MEAN WE'LL HAVE TO GO HOME?

WELL, IT DOES IF YOU LEAVE MY BEDROLL OUT THERE ALL NIGHT GETTING WET.

HERE YOU GO, CARRIE.

SORRY, PA.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

THERE WILL BE A LITTLE WATER ON YOUR FISH, BUT THEY'LL BE GOOD.

I BET YOUR MA'S HAVING THE TIME OF HER LIFE,

SITTING AT HOME IN A NICE, WARM, COZY HOUSE.

I WISH I WERE WITH HER.

OH, NOT ME.

I'D MUCH RATHER BE OUT HERE IN THE POURING RAIN...

HAVING A NICE, WET SUPPER, ICE-COLD CUP OF COFFEE.

A MAN COULDN'T ASK FOR ANY MORE THAN THAT.

HA HA!

OH!

CHARLES!

GIRLS--

OH!

[CLANK]

[THUNDER]

[CRYING]

AH!

[SIGH]

[BELL JANGLING]

WHAT IN TARNATION IS ALL THE COMMOTION--

OH, THAT BLASTED COW!

COME ON, LET'S GET HER OUT OF HERE

BEFORE SHE RUINS YOUR MOTHER'S FLOWER GARDEN.

WELL, GOOD LORD.

GOOD LORD, LOOK AT THAT MESS.

BY GOD, YOUR MOM'S GONNA BE--

PA. HMM?

HEY, ISN'T THIS THE INGALLS' COW?

YEAH, BY GOLLY, I RECKON IT IS.

SHE NEEDS MILKING. I CAN TAKE HER HOME

AND BE BACK BEFORE BREAKFAST.

NO, SIRREE. SONNY, YOU JUST GO FETCH ME THE MILK BUCKET.

INGALLS WANTS HIS COW, HE CAN COME AND GET HER.

THEY MIGHT BE HUNTING ALL OVER FOR HER RIGHT NOW, PA.

SERVES THEM RIGHT.

IN THE MEANTIME,

A LITTLE EXTRA MILK SHOULD SOOTHE YOUR MA'S FEELINGS

FOR WHEN SHE SEES HER TORN-UP FLOWER GARDEN.

COME ON, DON'T JUST STAND THERE. GET THE BUCKET.

[MOANING] OW!

AH!

[THUMP]

[GRUNTING AND SNORTING]

DON'T SCRATCH IT TOO HARD NOW. IT'S JUST A BABY.

PIGGLY WIGGLY. I'LL TAKE HIM HOME AND KEEP HIM IN MY BED.

BUT YOU CAN'T DO THAT.

WON'T BE LONG BEFORE HE'S AS BIG AS HIS MAMA.

HE'D BREAK YOUR BED.

NUH-UH.

YES, HE WOULD.

HE'S SO CUTE.

RAY, I'VE CARRIED BEEF QUARTERS

DIDN'T WEIGH ANY MORE THAN THESE HAMS.

WELL, YOU SEE, CHARLES, PIGS ARE SMART.

YOU PUT FOOD IN FRONT OF THEM,

THEY'LL EAT IT.

JUST TEACH THEM TO SMOKE THEMSELVES,

YOU WON'T HAVE TO DO ANY WORK AT ALL.

HEY, LOOKS LIKE YOU MIGHT HAVE AN ADDITION TO THE FAMILY.

HO HO!

SO YOU LIKE THE LITTLE FELLA, DO YOU?

YEAH. HA HA! HE'S CUTE.

PA, CARRIE WANTS TO TAKE

THE PIGGLY WIGGLY HOME WITH HER.

AH, NO, WE CAN'T DO THAT, DARLING.

WHY?

WELL, HE'S JUST TOO LITTLE.

HE'S GOT TO STAY HERE WITH HIS MA.

BUT MARY SAID YOU CAN FEED HIM WITH A BOTTLE.

SORRY, PA.

WELL, THAT'S TRUE ENOUGH, BUT THIS IS HIS HOME,

AND HE'S GONNA HAVE TO STAY HERE TILL HE GROWS UP.

THEN WHERE WILL HE GO?

WELL, THEN HE'LL--

OH, WELL, HE'S SUCH A HANDSOME LITTLE FELLA,

HE'LL FIND HIMSELF A LADY FRIEND AND RAISE A FAMILY.

AND HAVE BABIES.

Turnbull: SURE AS SHOOTIN'.

HA HA HA!

PRETTY AS HE IS.

Carrie: GOOD.

ALL RIGHT, GIRLS. INTO THE WAGON.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE GET TO JOHNSON'S MEADOW BEFORE YOUR MA DOES.

BYE, PIGGLY WIGGLY.

[LAUGHTER]

COME ON, CARRIE.

RAY, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THAT LITTLE STORY.

I WAS AFRAID I'D NEVER GET HER TO EAT ANOTHER SLAB OF BACON AGAIN.

I'LL SEE YOU.

Charles: NOW WE CAN GET IN A LITTLE FISHING.

WELL...

YOU ARE HANDSOME AT THAT, TOO.

[SQUEALING]

THERE YOU ARE, BACK TO MAMA!

Laura: BYE!

BYE!

Charles: HA!

YOU KNOW, MRS. FOSTER, I'M DOUBLY GLAD

THAT YOU AND MRS. INGALLS ARE GOING ALONG WITH ME TO STODDARD.

AFTER ALL THE WORK THE LADIES OF WALNUT GROVE HAVE GONE TO,

IT WILL BE NICE THERE WILL BE SOMEONE THERE TO ACCEPT THEIR APPRECIATION.

WHOA, BOY! WHOA!

JUST A MINUTE, MRS. FOSTER, I'LL GIVE YOU A HAND DOWN.

THANK YOU, REVEREND. I CAN MANAGE.

[KNOCKING]

MRS. INGALLS.

OH, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT.

OH...CAROLINE'S PIES ARE THE TALK OF THE WOMEN'S LEAGUE.

MRS. INGALLS?

I'VE NEVER SEEN BETTER-LOOKING PIES THAN THAT.

WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF SHE WINS A PRIZE ON FOUNDER'S DAY THIS YEAR.

Reverend: CAROLINE!

[KNOCKING]

Foster: CAROLINE PROBABLY DECIDED To Go AHEAD WITH THE FAMILY.

YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.

BUT IF WE'RE GOING TO GET TO STODDARD IN TIME FOR THE BAZAAR,

WE HAVE GOT TO GET MOVING.

HERE. LET ME GIVE YOU A HAND WITH THOSE.

THANK YOU.

- MMM. HA HA HA! - AREN'T THEY BEAUTIFUL.

WILL YOU LOOK AT THAT BLUEBERRY PIE.

Reverend: I THINK WE'RE GONNA MAKE A FORTUNE OUT OF THESE.

Foster: WE CAN ALWAYS DEPEND ON CAROLINE WITH HER PIES.

THAT'S THE LAST ONE.

[LAUGHTER]

WATCH ME THIS TIME!

Charles: YOU GOT To COME OUT To HERE!

AAH!

HA HA HA!

HA HA HA!

NOT BAD. YOU HIT YOUR FEET.

COME ON, MARY.

IT'S YOUR TURN. IT'S FUN.

DON'T BE AFRAID.

I DON'T WANT TO GET MY HEAD UNDERWATER.

YOU SURE YOU'LL CATCH ME BEFORE I GO UNDER?

I'LL DO THE BEST I CAN.

COME ON! I'LL CATCH YOU RIGHT OUT ABOUT HERE.

DON'T BE AFRAID. REAL GOOD SWING.

YEAH! AAH!

WELL, I ALMOST CAUGHT YOU.

THAT'S OK. THAT WAS FUN.

HO! LOOK OUT!

HERE I COME!

NAN. LOOK OUT'.!

HA HA HA!

THAT WAS A GOOD ONE!

DID MA EVER DO THIS?

OH, YOU BET! SHE WAS DARN GOOD AT IT, TOO.

HEY, COME ON. LET'S GET DRIED OFF.

WE GOT TO LOOK RESPECTABLE WHEN THE REVEREND GETS HERE.

I DIDN'T THINK YOU WERE GONNA COME DOWN THAT TIME.

[LAUGHTER]

"AND IF THY HAND OFFEND THEE, CUT IT OFF."

"IT IS BETTER FOR THEE TO ENTER INTO LIFE MAIMED."

"AND IF THY FOOT OFFEND THEE, CUT IT OFF:

IT IS BETTER FOR THEE TO ENTER HALT INTO LIFE..."

AH!

Charles: ALL RIGHT, WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

I HEAR LAUGHING.

I HEAR A DOG.

[JACK BARKING]

[GIRLS LAUGHING]

AH, NOW I HEAR HIM.

AAH! HA HA HA!

- BOO! - WHERE ARE YOU?

OH! NO PULLING MY SUSPENDERS!

THAT AIN'T FAIR! THAT'S CHEATING!

WHO JUST BIT MY FOOT?

I HOPE THAT WAS YOU, JACK.

OW!

JACK, YOU'RE IT FOR TOUCHING MY BOOT.

HA HA HA!

BEHIND YOU! BEHIND YOU!

I'M GONNA GET ME--OH!

HEE HEE HEE!

OH, I HEAR GIGGLING!

I HEAR GIG--OH! HA!

I GOT SOMEBODY. I GOT-- WHO HAVE I GOT?

I GOT MR. EDWARDS. I CAN FEEL WHISKERS.

HA HA HA! HA HA HA!

I'M NOT MR. EDWARDS.

WELL, WHO IS THIS? WHY, IT'S CARRIE.

HOW ARE YOU? MMM...

HI, REVEREND!

HERE. COME ON. WE'LL GO SEE MAMA.

GOOD AFTERNOON, GIRLS.

GOOD AFTERNOON, REVEREND.

HI, REVEREND, MRS. FOSTER. HELLO.

YOU GIRLS CAN BE VERY PROUD OF YOUR MOTHER.

THE PEOPLE AT THE BAZAAR

SNAPPED UP HER PIES THE FIRST THING.

THAT'S WONDERFUL!

OUR MA'S THE BEST BAKER IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

BROUGHT NEARLY $4.00.

OF COURSE I THINK A LITTLE OF IT

MIGHT HAVE HAD TO DO WITH MY SALESMANSHIP.

HELLO, CHARLES.

Charles: HI, REVEREND.

WHAT HAPPENED? CAROLINE CHANGE HER MIND ABOUT COMING?

WELL, I THOUGHT SHE CAME AHEAD WITH YOU.

CAROLINE WASN'T HOME.

THE PIES WERE WAITING OUTSIDE THE DOOR.

WELL, SHE DIDN'T LEAVE A NOTE OR ANYTHING?

NO.

SHUTTERS WERE CLOSED. THE DOOR WAS LOCKED.

THAT'S NOT LIKE CAROLINE, GOING OFF, NOT LEAVING SOME KIND OF WORD.

WELL, CHARLES, I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY NEED TO WORRY.

IT'S...MAYBE SOMETHING CAME UP.

MAYBE CAROLINE WENT TO LEND A HAND TO A NEIGHBOR. YOU KNOW HOW SHE IS.

YEAH. I'D FEEL BETTER IF I KNEW FOR SURE.

GIRLS, I THINK WE'LL HITCH UP THE TEAM, HEAD BACK HOME.

WELL, NOW, CHARLES, THERE'S NO REASON

TO SPOIL THE CHILDREN'S GOOD TIME.

TAKE THE BUCKBOARD. IT'LL BE FASTER.

THEN MRS. FOSTER AND I WILL BRING THE CHILDREN ALONG.

YOU'RE SURE YOU DON'T MIND?

- NO. GO ON. - NOT AT ALL

I'D FEEL A LOT BETTER. I'LL SEE YOU AT HOME, GIRLS.

- HAVE A SAFE TRIP. - BYE, PA.

COME ON!

HEY, INGALLS!

INGALLS, WAIT A MINUTE!

HO! MR. BARRETT.

MR. INGALLS, I FIGURED IT WAS ABOUT TIME YOU WAS SHOWING UP.

I'M SORRY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, BARRETT.

WHY, THAT DAGGONE COW OF YOURS.

SHOWED UP HERE CATERWAULING THIS MORNING

BEFORE THE BIRDS WAS UP.

DUG UP ALL MY WIFE'S FLOWER GARDEN.

CAROLINE DIDN'T COME BY TO PICK HER UP?

NO, CAROLINE DIDN'T COME BY TO PICK HER UP

BECAUSE THEN I WOULDN'T STILL HAVE THE COW HERE, WOULD I?

NO, SIR. I FED YOUR ANIMAL--

HA!

AND I..

HEY! DON'T YOU WANT TO TAKE YOUR ANIMAL?

HYAH!

CAROLINE.

I'VE NEVER SEEN MA SO SICK BEFORE.

NEITHER HAVE I, DARLING, BUT...

YOUR MA'S REAL STRONG,

AND DR. BAKER'S DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN.

SHE'S NOT GOING TO DIE, IS SHE, PA?

COME ON. THIS IS NO TIME TO TALK LIKE THAT.

GOD TAKES CARE OF THOSE THAT LOVE HIM.

THEN HE HAS TO LET MA LIVE.

HE JUST HAS TO.

HE WILL. YOU WAIT AND SEE.

WE JUST HAVE TO PRAY...

WITH ALL OUR HEARTS.

Charles: WITH ALL OUR HEARTS.

DOCTOR.

THE FEVER'S BROKEN.

COURAGEOUS WOMAN.

IF SHE HADN'T OPENED THE INFECTION WHEN SHE DID,

SHE WOULD HAVE LOST HER LEG, PROBABLY HER LIFE,

BUT NOW WITH... WITH REST...

SHE'S GONNA BE JUST FINE.

TELL THE GIRLS, WILL YOU?

Baker: YOU CAN Go IN NOW, GIRLS.

Mary: COME ON, CARRIE. LET'S Go SEE MA.

SHE'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.

YOU KNOW, REVEREND,

A DOCTOR WOULD HAVE HAD DIFFICULTY

MAKING THE DECISION CAROLINE DID.

HOW SHE PICKED EXACTLY THE RIGHT MOMENT...

ONLY GOD KNOWS.

I'M SURE HE DOES, DOCTOR.

I'M SURE HE DOES.
