Carrie: I GOT THE FLOWERS!

DID YOU LEAVE ANY?

A WHOLE BUSHEL!

HEY, MA, CAN YOU COME OUT HERE A SECOND?

Caroline: IS IT YOUR PA?

OH, NOT YET, BUT I WANT YOU TO SEE SOMETHING.

OH, ISN'T IT PRETTY?

I WONDERED WHAT YOU WERE UP TO. I HAD NO IDEA.

WELL, YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO.

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SURPRISE FOR YOU AND PA,

BUT IT'S GETTING SO LATE I THOUGHT I'D BETTER PUT IT UP NOW.

WELL, I GUESS WE'LL JUST HAVE TO

TAKE OUR SURPRISES ONE AT A TIME.

I WISH HE'D COME, THOUGH.

Laura: MA, I THINK THE CAKE'S DONE.

COMING! THANK YOU, MARY.

OH, CARRIE, HOW SWEET.

Carrie: WHOOPS!

DARN IT, CARRIE!

IT FELL OVER.

WELL, I CAN SEE THAT,

AND AFTER ALL THE TROUBLE I WENT TO

TO MAKE THE TABLE LOOK NICE FOR MA AND PA.

NO HARM DONE.

THANK YOU FOR THE FLOWERS, CARRIE.

LAURA, YOUR TABLE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL.

MA, I'M HUNGRY.

I KNOW, DEAR.

- ME, TOO. - I KNOW.

WELL, EVERYTHING'S JUST ABOUT READY.

AND EVERYONE'S HERE...

EXCEPT THE GROOM.

HA! HE SHOULD BE ALONG ANY MOMENT NOW.

COME ON, DAVID! COME ON!

[HORSES NEIGHING]

COME ON, DAVID! PULL.

MA.

DO YOU THINK ANYTHING HAPPENED TO PA?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

HE'S PROBABLY JUST...DELAYED A BIT

WITH SOME BUSINESS.

I WAS HUNGRY.

HA HA! SOMEHOW I GUESSED THAT, CARRIE.

I'M GLAD WE DIDN'T WAIT.

WELL, IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME

I'VE WAITED FOR YOUR PA.

I'M SURE IT WON'T BE THE LAST.

DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME HE KEPT YOU WAITING?

IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO.

I WAS NO OLDER THAN YOU, LAURA.

Laura: DID HE HAVE A GOOD EXCUSE?

HA! A WHIPPING GOOD EXCUSE, YOU MIGHT SAY.

WELL, WHAT HAPPENED?

DID YOU FALL IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?

WELL...

YES...AND NO.

WELL, WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

WELL, FROM THE WAY YOUR PA ACTED, I COULDN'T TELL.

WELL, WHAT HAPPENED?

WE WERE LIVING ON THE FARM

ON THE BANKS OF THE OCONOMOWOC RIVER.

OH, MY.

I CAN SEE IT SO CLEARLY.

WELL, ONE DAY, A WAGON CAME UP THE ROAD,

AND SOMEBODY HAILED US.

WE RAN OUTSIDE TO SEE WHO IT WAS.

HOW DO, YOUNG LADY?

HELLO.

HELLO, MA'AM.

HOW DO YOU DO?

HOW DO YOU DO? MY NAME'S LANSFORD INGALLS.

THIS IS MY WIFE LAURA.

Woman: HELLO, MRS. INGALLS.

HOW DO YOU DO?

WE'RE TO BE YOUR NEW NEIGHBORS.

I JUST BOUGHT THE OLD BARTON PLACE.

WELL, I'M SO PLEASED YOU STOPPED BY.

OUR NAME'S HOLBROOK, AND THESE ARE MY CHILDREN--

HENRY,

- ELIZA ANN, - HI.

- AND CAROLINE. - HELLO.

- HI. - MY HUSBAND'S IN THE FIELD WORKING.

HENRY, WHY DON'T YOU GO AND FETCH HIM?

OH, NO NEED TO BOTHER DOING THAT, MA'AM.

NO?

Lansford: THIS IS MY BROOD.

- THIS IS POLLY, - HI.

- PETER... - HI.

All: HI.

AND, UH-- BUT WHERE'S CHARLES?

Peter: HE'S IN THE WAGON.

- CHARLES? - CHARLES.

COME ON OUT AND MEET YOUR NEW NEIGHBORS.

CHARLES...

THIS IS MRS. HOLBROOK.

Mrs. Holbrook: HELLO, CHARLES.

Lansford: AND THIS IS HENRY

- HI, CHARLES. - AND ELIZA ANN

HI.

AND, UM...

CAROLINE.

CAROLINE.

[WHISPERS] Hello.

HELLO, CHARLES.

WELL, WON'T YOU COME INSIDE

AND HAVE SOMETHING REFRESHING?

OH, WELL--

THE DUST IS SO THICK ON THE ROAD.

IT WON'T TAKE BUT A MINUTE.

LANSFORD?

WE'D BE DELIGHTED.

OH, GOOD.

I'D LIKE THAT VERY MUCH. THANK YOU.

Mrs. Holbrook: COME THIS WAY.

[ALL TALKING AT ONCE]

Mrs. Holbrook: IT'S CHARLOTTE.

CAN YOU GET IT?

YEAH.

LANSFORD, WE'VE GOT COMPANY.

HELLO THERE!

- HI! - GOOD MORNING. I HOPE THIS ISN'T A BAD TIME FOR YOU.

Lansford: IT'S NEVER A BAD TIME

TO BE NEIGHBORLY, MRS. HOLBROOK.

OH, THANK YOU. WELL, I KNOW YOU DIDN'T HAVE

ANY CHANCE TO DO ANY BAKING,

SO I MADE A LITTLE EXTRA THIS MORNING.

THAT SMELLS DELICIOUS! OH, WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL.

YOU'RE WELCOME. HENRY'S GOT SOME SWEETENING FOR YOU.

IT WILL MAKE IT TASTE BETTER.

I NOTICED A STAND OF MAPLES DOWN THERE. THANK YOU.

WE HAVE A SUGARING ONCE A YEAR.

CAROLINE, WHY DON'T YOU PASS OUT YOUR GOODIES?

I'M SURE WE CAN FIND SOMEONE

WITH A SWEET TOOTH AROUND HERE.

IT'S MAPLE SUGAR CANDY.

- THANK YOU. - THANKS.

Laura: CHARLOTTE, WHY DON'T YOU COME IN THE HOUSE?

Charlotte: OH, THANK YOU. I'D LOVE TO.

IT'S SO GOOD YOU CAME OVER.

HAVE SOME.

NO, THANKS.

YOU DON'T WANT ANY?

NO.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE IT?

I DIDN'T WANT IT.

YOU DUMMY, SHE WANTED YOU TO HAVE IT.

WHY?

BECAUSE I THINK SHE LIKES YOU.

YOU HURT HER FEELINGS, YOU KNOW.

YOU OUGHT TO GO OVER TO HER AND APOLOGIZE. THAT'S WHAT.

TELL HER YOU'RE A DUMMY-- A REAL DUMMY.

OK.

I'M SORRY.

FOR WHAT?

BECAUSE I'M A DUMMY.

WHAT?

A REAL DUMMY.

WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?

MY BROTHER. BYE.

SO WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HER?

WHAT YOU TOLD ME TO SAY--

"I'M SORRY. I'M A DUMMY-- A REAL DUMMY."

OH!

YOU JUST GRADUATED

FROM DUMMY TO JACKASS.

[GRUNTING]

WHY, YOU LITTLE...

Woman: BYE.

Mr. Ingalls: BYE. NICE TO HAVE MET YOU.

BYE, MRS. INGALLS!

Lansford: BYE, HENRY. BYE, CAROLINE.

THANKS FOR THE MAPLE SYRUP.

Henry: BYE! - BYE, PETER.

SEE YOU, PETER.

BYE, EVERYBODY.

BYE-BYE. SEE YOU, POLLY.

WHERE'S CHARLES?

OH, HE'LL COME.

I'M GOING TO RUN AHEAD.

ALL RIGHT, GO ON. WE'LL CATCH UP.

WHAT A STRANGE BOY.

I THINK HE LIKES YOU, CAROLINE.

- REALLY? - MM-HMM.

HOW CAN YOU TELL?

BECAUSE BOYS HIS AGE-- A LOT OLDER, TOO--

SOMETIMES ACT LIKE THAT--

YOU KNOW, SORT OF SILLY AND STANDOFFISH--

WHEN THEY REALLY LIKE A GIRL.

Caroline: I COULDN'T QUITE MAKE OUT YOUR PA AT FIRST,

BUT MY MA SAID HE LIKED ME.

TIME FOR NIGHTGOWNS.

OH, MA.

MA.

NO ARGUMENTS.

NIGHTGOWNS.

[QUIETLY] OFF TO BED, HONEY.

[YAWNS]

[THUNDER]

GOOD NIGHT, MA.

GOOD NIGHT, DEAR.

LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO RAIN.

I SURE HOPE YOUR PA ISN'T CAUGHT OUT IN IT.

MA, TELL US SOME MORE ABOUT YOU AND PA.

WHAT'S MORE TO TELL?

WELL, YOU STILL HAVEN'T TOLD US

ABOUT HOW HE KEPT YOU WAITING THE FIRST TIME.

MAYBE I'D JUST AS SOON FORGET.

COME ON NOW! OFF TO BED.

PLEASE, MA?

WELL...

IF YOU MUST KNOW...

Mary: WAS IT AWFUL WAITING FOR HIM?

OH, I GOT OVER IT.

BEAUS ARE AN UNPREDICTABLE LOT AT THAT AGE.

WAS HE YOUR FIRST BEAU?

I SUPPOSE YOU COULD SAY HE WAS.

THERE WAS ANOTHER BOY-- HAROLD WATSON.

TO THINK I CAN STILL REMEMBER HIS NAME.

HE SEEMED TO THINK HE WAS MY BEAU,

BUT I DIDN'T EVEN LIKE HIM.

WHY NOT?

OH, HE WAS SO...

SELF-IMPORTANT.

HIS FATHER WAS THE SCHOOLTEACHER,

AND MR. WATSON SEEMED TO HAVE IT IN FOR CHARLES

FROM THE FIRST DAY HE SHOWED UP AT SCHOOL.

NOW, FOR THE BENEFIT

OF THOSE WHO ARE NEW AMONGST US,

I'D LIKE TO STRESS THE FACT THAT IN THIS SCHOOL,

WE WORK HARD,

HARD, HARD!

AND THAT WE REGARD EVERY SUBJECT,

INCLUDING DEPORTMENT,

OF EQUAL SIGNIFICANCE.

DO I MAKE MYSELF

CLEAR, CLEAR, CLEAR?

YOU THERE.

WE HAVEN'T HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING BEFORE.

I BELIEVE YOU KNOW MY NAME--MR. WATSON.

W-A-T-S-O-N.

MAY I BE ENLIGHTENED AS TO YOURS?

[QUIETLY] TELL HIM YOUR NAME.

I GIVE THE INSTRUCTIONS HERE, YOUNG MAN.

NOW, I WAS ADDRESSING MYSELF TO YOU, BOY.

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?

CHARLES INGALLS.

STAND UP AND SPEAK UP, BOY!

CHARLES INGALLS.

LOUDER, PLEASE,

FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ENTIRE ROOM.

WE ARE ALL CURIOUS AS TO YOUR IDENTITY.

CHARLES INGALLS.

WE ENUNCIATE CLEARLY IN THIS CLASS,

AND WE SPEAK SO AS TO BE HEARD.

NOW, MAY WE DISCOVER

WHETHER YOU ARE CAPABLE OF DOING EITHER?

CHARLES INGALLS!

[LAUGHTER]

[LAUGHTER STOPS]

[CANE CLINKS]

CHARLES INGALLS...

YOU WILL REMAIN IN THE CLASSROOM AT LUNCH RECESS

UNTIL YOU HAVE LEARNED A LESSON IN DEPORTMENT.

DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?

WELL?

[FLOGGING]

HI, CAROLINE.

WHAT DID YOU BRING FOR LUNCH?

I'LL SPLIT WITH YOU.

I DON'T WANT TO.

I GOT APPLESAUCE AND BUTTER AND SUGAR ON BROWN BREAD.

I SAID I DON'T WANT TO, HAROLD WATSON.

YOU FEELING SORRY FOR HIM?

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

YOU WANT SOMETHING TO EAT?

NO, THANKS.

HEY, INGALLS, HOW'S YOUR DEPORTMENT FEEL?

STOP IT, HAROLD!

SPEAK UP, INGALLS! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

STOP IT!

YOU'RE THE LAST ONE HE WANTS TO HEAR FROM!

WHAT'S THE MATTER? CAN'T YOU TALK?

YOU SHY OR SOMETHING?

[BOYS GRUNTING]

CHARLES, BE CAREFUL!

HEY, THERE!

STOP THAT!

OH...

YOU!

[GRUNTING]

HE DIDN'T START IT, MR. WATSON! IT WAS HAROLD!

HAROLD BEGAN TEASING HIM THE MINUTE HE CAME OUT!

I'M QUITE CAPABLE OF DISTINGUISHING

THE INNOCENT FROM THE TROUBLEMAKERS, MISS.

THIS ONE IS A TROUBLEMAKER,

AND I'LL THANK YOU FOR NOT INTERFERING.

[FLOGGING]

NOW...

IF WE NEED ANY MORE LESSONS IN DEPORTMENT

TODAY OR THIS WEEK

OR THIS ENTIRE SEMESTER,

YOU MAY COUNT ON ME TO ADMINISTER THEM.

DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?

COME ON, I'LL RACE YOU HOME.

I DON'T WANNA.

ARE YOU GONNA TELL PA?

BUT I BET YOUR SISTER WILL.

YOU RECKON HE'LL THRASH ME, TOO?

I RECKON NOT.

STOP IT, HAROLD WATSON!

JUST LET ME CARRY--

I DON'T WANT YOU TO CARRY MY BOOKS!

COME ON.

HAROLD, LET GO!

LEAVE HER ALONE, WATSON.

BUTT OUT, INGALLS.

I'LL BUTT YOU RIGHT INTO NEXT WEEK.

MY PA HAS YOU PEGGED RIGHT.

YOU'RE A TROUBLEMAKER.

YOUR PA'S FULL OF APPLESAUCE.

AND YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S MAKIN' THE TROUBLE.

NOW, ARE YOU GONNA GET OUT OF HERE...

OR DO I COME RAMMIN' AND THUMPIN'?

I'M GONNA TELL MY PA ON YOU.

DOES YOUR PA FIGHT ALL YOUR BATTLES?

THANK YOU.

FOR WHAT?

FOR HELPIN' ME WITH THAT PEST.

OH, UH, I-I REALLY

WASN'T HELPIN' YOU.

UH, I-I WAS JUST TRYIN'

TO FINISH UP SOMETHIN' HE STARTED.

OH.

WELL, THANKS ANYWAY.

YOU CAN CARRY MY BOOKS IF YOU'D LIKE.

UH, I-I CAN'T.

I-I GOTTA GET HOME AND DO MY CHORES.

OH!

THAT BOY! [SIGHS]

CAROLINE'S SWEET ON YOU.

SHE IS NOT!

IS, TOO. SHE'S ALWAYS MAKIN' EYES AT YOU.

AND I SAW YOU MAKIN' COW EYES

AT HER, TOO. JUST NOW.

THAT'S A LIE!

TAKE IT BACK!

WON'T TAKE IT BACK!

[INDISTINCT TALKING]

[VIOLIN PLAYING]

[VIOLIN PLAYING CONTINUES]

Peter: GOT YOU. - AAH!

YOU KNOW WHAT WE DO WITH SPIES AROUND HERE.

ANYBODY GOT A GUN?

THIS IS AN ENEMY SPY.

NOW, DON'T EMBARRASS THE CHILD, PETER.

I WASN'T SPYING!

I JUST HEARD THE MUSIC,

AND I WANTED TO SEE WHO WAS PLAYING.

YOU HEARD IT ALL THE WAY FROM YOUR HOUSE, HUH?

NOW, THAT'S ENOUGH, YOUNG MAN!

I THINK YOU HAVE CHORES TO DO.

YES, MA'AM.

[DOOR CLOSES]

NOW, WHY DON'T YOU STAY A BIT?

I'VE MADE SOME FRESH DOUGHNUTS,

AND WE WERE JUST ABOUT TO HAVE SOME WITH MILK.

AND THEN CHARLES CAN WALK YOU HOME,

SO YOU GET HOME SAFELY.

I'D INVITE YOU TO SUPPER AFTERWARDS WITH YOUR BROTHER,

BUT I THINK YOUR MA WOULD WORRY.

YOU PLAY VERY WELL, CHARLES.

WHEN DID YOU START PRACTICING?

I STARTED WHEN I WAS 5.

HOW OLD ARE YOU NOW?

12.

NO WONDER YOU PLAY SO WELL.

YOU OUGHT TO PLAY FOR THE SCHOOL EXERCISES IN JUNE.

I CAN'T.

WHY NOT?

OLD MAN WATSON. HOW I HATE HIM.

YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY HATES HIM...

ESPECIALLY THE WAY HE PICKS ON YOU.

I'D LIKE TO FIX HIS GOOSE FOR IT.

ME, TOO.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

I DON'T KNOW.

SURE LIKE TO DO IT, THOUGH.

COMING TO THE BERRY FESTIVAL SATURDAY?

EVERYONE WILL BE THERE.

I DON'T KNOW.

NEVER BEEN TO ONE BEFORE.

THEY'RE FUN.

AROUND HERE, THE GIRLS MAKE UP THE LUNCHES.

THEY MAKE ENOUGH FOR TWO AND WRAP THEM.

IF THERE'S SOMEONE THEY ESPECIALLY LIKE,

THEY MARK THEM IN A SECRET WAY

SO NO ONE BUT THE BOY THEY WANT CAN RECOGNIZE THEM.

SOUNDS LIKE FUN.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO MAKE A LUNCH FOR US?

OK. I WON'T TELL YOU WHAT'S IN IT

SO IT WILL BE A SURPRISE,

BUT I'LL TIE IT WITH THIS RIBBON SO YOU'LL KNOW IT.

TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT IT NOW.

DEPORTMENT, DEPORTMENT, DEPORTMENT!

I'LL TEACH YOU THE MEANING OF THAT WORD YET!

DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?

Charles: YES, SIR.

YOU MAY GO.

CHARLES, I'M SORRY.

CHARLES, WAIT! DON'T GO!

Mr. Watson: WHO'S THERE?

WHO'S OUT THERE?

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WHO DID THIS?

OPEN THE DOOR!

[DOOR RATTLING]

OPEN THE DOOR! OPEN IT AT ONCE!

HEY, CHARLES INGALLS!

YOU'LL SUFFER FOR THIS!

I'LL GET MY HANDS ON YOU

NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE,

AND YOU'LL HAVE A THRASHING

YOU'LL NEVER FORGET!

LET ME OUT!

LET ME OUT OF HERE!

LET ME OUT!

Lansford: COME ON. WHEE!

SHALL WE GO, DEAR?

THANK YOU.

I WONDER WHAT MR. WATSON'S DOING OUT HERE.

DON'T KNOW.

BETTER FIND OUT, EH?

WHOA!

Lansford: WELL...

OVER HERE.

MR. WATSON HERE SAYS THAT...

THAT YOU ROPED THE SCHOOL OUTHOUSE SHUT

WITH HIM INSIDE.

IS THAT TRUE?

YES, SIR.

WELL, THEN YOU KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.

YES, SIR.

BEND OVER.

UH, AHEM.

[FLOGGING]

MORE THAN ENOUGH.

CHARLES NOW KNOWS

THAT NO MATTER WHAT THE PROVOCATION...

PUNISHMENT WILL FOLLOW WRONGDOING.

HE WON'T REPEAT IT.

AND NEITHER WILL YOU REPEAT THE PROVOCATION,

MR. WATSON.

WHY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

I MEAN THE WAY YOU'VE BEEN TREATING HIM.

WELL, NATURALLY, THE BOY WOULD EXAGGERATE--

LIE, IN FACT.

YOU MIGHT EXPECT THAT.

CHARLES NEVER SAID A WORD TO ME,

BUT HIS BROTHER DID.

AND I AM TELLING YOU...

THAT IF I EVER HEAR FROM ANYONE

THAT YOU'VE LAID A FINGER ON HIM

WITHOUT JUSTIFICATION...

I WILL PERSONALLY

COME TO YOUR SCHOOL

AND THRASH YOU IN FRONT OF YOUR ENTIRE CLASS.

DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?

GIDDY-UP, GIDDY-UP.

I THINK WE'RE DONE.

I'LL APPRECIATE A LITTLE LESS MISCHIEF

FROM YOU, MR. CHARLES,

AND A LITTLE MORE APPLICATION TO YOUR STUDIES.

YES, SIR.

ALL RIGHT, YOU GO ON IN THE HOUSE THERE, AND...

WE'LL BE GOING TO THE BERRY FESTIVAL WITHOUT YOU.

YES, SIR.

I WAITED AND WAITED.

JUST LIKE WE'RE WAITING FOR HIM HERE NOW?

NOT QUITE THE SAME.

TELL US MORE, MA.

NO. THAT'S ALL FOR NOW.

IT'S WAY PAST YOUR BEDTIME.

GOOD NIGHT, MA.

GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT, MA.

GOOD NIGHT.

[THUNDER]

WHEREVER YOUR PA IS,

I SURE HOPE HE'S FOUND SHELTER SOMEWHERE.

ME, TOO.

[THUNDER]

MA?

CAN'T YOU SLEEP, EITHER?

I'M WORRIED ABOUT PA.

THE RAIN'S POUNDING AWFUL HARD ON THE ROOF.

COME ON, CUDDLE UP WITH ME.

OH, YOUR FEET ARE LIKE ICE!

I KEEP THINKING ABOUT THAT MR. WATSON

AND THE BERRY FESTIVAL.

I SURE AM GLAD WE DON'T HAVE

A MEAN TEACHER LIKE THAT.

FORTUNATELY, HE DIDN'T LAST LONG.

MA, TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOU AND PA.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS, YOUNG LADY?

I KNOW, BUT I CAN'T SLEEP.

PLEASE? JUST A LITTLE WHILE LONGER.

ALL RIGHT.

I WAS REALLY GLAD

YOUR PA TIED MR. WATSON UP IN THE OUTHOUSE,

BUT I WASN'T ABOUT TO LET CHARLES KNOW THAT--

NOT JUST YET.

I'M SORRY I MISSED THE FESTIVAL.

IT'S OF NO CONCERN TO ME.

YOU KNOW WHY?

YES.

MY PARENTS WERE SHOCKED AT WHAT YOU DID.

HE GOT WHAT WAS COMING TO HIM.

I HEAR YOU DID, TOO.

OH, AND IT MIGHT INTEREST YOU TO KNOW

THAT I SHARED OUR LUNCH WITH HAROLD WATSON.

WELL, IT MIGHT INTEREST YOU TO KNOW

THAT IT DON'T INTEREST ME,

SO THERE!

CHARLES...

I DIDN'T SHARE MY LUNCH WITH HAROLD.

YOU DIDN'T?

NO.

I CAN'T STAND TO WATCH HIM CHEW.

HA HA!

HERE.

HERE. IT'S FOR YOU.

THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL.

DID YOU MAKE IT?

THEY'RE SEEDS.

THEY'RE CALLED JOB'S-TEARS.

I THOUGHT THAT-- WELL, MAYBE...

YOU DON'T HAVE TO WEAR THEM

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO.

I WANT TO.

HELP ME, PLEASE.

HOW DOES IT LOOK?

REAL PRETTY ON YOU.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH...

CHARLES INGALLS.

THIS IS THE FIRST PRESENT A BOY EVER GAVE ME,

EXCEPT MY BROTHER.

THE FIRST PRESENT I EVER GAVE A GIRL,

EXCEPT MY SISTER,

AND THAT WAS JUST A FROG.

HA!

COMING TO THE HAYING DANCE?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT IS IT?

THE FARMERS AROUND HERE

ALL HELP EACH OTHER WITH THE HAYING.

WHEN THEY'RE FINISHED, THEY HAVE A BARN DANCE.

EVERYBODY?

MM-HMM.

GROWN-UPS AND CHILDREN.

HAROLD WATSON ALREADY ASKED

IF HE COULD BE MY PARTNER.

I TOLD HIM I WAS GOING WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

WHO?

CHARLES INGALLS!

DO I HAVE TO SAY IT MYSELF?

[SIGH]

WILL YOU BE MY PARTNER?

UH, I GUESS SO.

YOU CAN'T GUESS SO!

YES OR NO.

YES.

I GOT TO GO.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DANCE.

DON'T BOTHER ME NONE.

I DON'T WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU, ANYWAY. HA HA!

IT'S NOT FUNNY, STUPID.

I'M SUPPOSED TO TAKE CAROLINE TO A DANCE.

YOU TAKING A GIRL?

YEAH, SO THERE.

HA HA HA!

I DON'T SEE NOTHING SO FUNNY.

WELL, IT ISN'T ALL THAT HARD.

ALL YOU GOT TO DO

IS MOVE YOUR FEET TO THE MUSIC.

BUT HOW?

LIKE THIS.

YEAH, BUT HOW DO YOU DO IT WITH A GIRL?

YOU PUT YOUR ARMS LIKE SO.

NO! LIKE THIS. WATCH, NOW.

OH.

THIS ISN'T A WRESTLING MATCH.

I'M TRYING TO SHOW YOU.

NOW, DO AS I DO.

ANYBODY WATCHING?

NOBODY'S WATCHING, ALL RIGHT?

OK.

1, 2, 3.

1, 2, 3.

1, 2--

YOU'RE STEPPING ON MY FOOT.

WELL, GET IT OUT OF THE WAY.

1, 2--OOH!

YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE.

I DID NOT!

OH, YEAH? THEN--OOH! OOH!

[BAND PLAYING]

HI, CAROLINE.

OH, HOW PRETTY YOU LOOK, CAROLINE.

WHERE'S CHARLES?

OH, HE'LL BE HERE ANY MOMENT NOW.

HE COULDN'T GET HIS HAIR TO LOOK JUST RIGHT.

NOW, DON'T YOU WORRY.

HE'LL BE RIGHT ALONG.

PERK UP. HE'LL BE HERE.

[CHUCKLES]

- SHALL WE DANCE, LAURA? - OH, I'D LOVE TO.

DANCE WITH ME, CAROLINE.

NO, THANK YOU, HAROLD.

WHY NOT?

I'M SAVING MY DANCES FOR CHARLES INGALLS.

HE'S NOT COMING.

HOW DO YOU KNOW?

I SAW HIM. HE TOLD ME.

YES, DARLING?

HE'S NOT COMING, MAMA.

I DON'T WANT TO STAY.

OH, DARLING, HE'LL BE HERE SOON.

NO, HE WON'T.

I WANT TO GO BACK TO THE HOUSE.

GO AHEAD.

I'LL COME SOON.

[CRYING]

PSST.

PSST.

WHAT ARE YOU HIDING HERE FOR?

I DIDN'T WANT ANYBODY TO SEE ME.

IS CAROLINE HERE?

SHE WENT HOME. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

HAROLD AND IKE JUMPED ON ME.

I CLEANED UP SOME.

I DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP HER WAITING ANY LONGER.

DID YOU GIVE THEM AS GOOD AS YOU GOT?

[SIGHS] COULDN'T--

NOT AGAINST THE BOTH--

BUT THEY'LL GET IT.

I GOT TO GO EXPLAIN TO CAROLINE!

HEY, HAROLD, IKE, GOT SOMETHING TO SHOW YOU.

WHAT IS IT?

CAN'T SHOW YOU HERE. DO YOU LIKE GIRLS?

- YEAH! - YEAH!

COME ON.

WHO'S THERE?

IT'S ME--CHARLES.

GO AWAY, CHARLES INGALLS.

I NEVER WANT TO SET EYES ON YOU AGAIN!

PLEASE, CAROLINE.

I'M SORRY I WAS LATE,

BUT I CAN EXPLAIN.

YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO KEEP ME WAITING AGAIN!

PLEASE.

I COULDN'T HELP IT.

LET ME IN, AND I'LL SHOW YOU.

PLEASE, CAROLINE.

PLEASE?

WHY SHOULD I LET YOU IN

WHEN I DON'T EVEN WANT TO LOOK AT YOU?

BECAUSE THAT'S WHY I'M LATE.

PLEASE. IT WASN'T MY FAULT.

I'D HAVE BEEN THERE.

WELL...

I'LL JUST WAIT UNTIL YOUR FOLKS COME HOME

IF YOU WON'T LET ME IN!

PLEASE, CAROLINE.

WHAT HAPPENED?

HAROLD AND IKE TRIED TO KEEP ME

FROM COMING TO THE DANCE.

UH...

I KNOW I...

DON'T LOOK TOO FANCY.

DOES IT HURT?

BET YOU'RE ASHAMED OF ME--

THE WAY I LOOK.

I'LL NEVER BE ASHAMED OF YOU, CHARLES INGALLS.

I JUST HAD TO TELL YOU.

I WAS SO ASHAMED...

NOT SHOWING UP AND KEEPING YOU FROM THE DANCE.

WE CAN HAVE OUR OWN DANCE...

RIGHT HERE...

ALONE.

I'D LIKE THAT BETTER.

WOULDN'T YOU?

YES.

I CAN'T DANCE TOO GOOD.

MY BROTHER TAUGHT ME.

WHAT DID PA SAY WHEN HE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE BEADS?

I NEVER TOLD HIM.

I PICKED THEM UP-- AS MANY AS I COULD FIND--

AND I RESTRUNG THEM,

AND I KEPT THEM.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THEM?

HERE. I'LL SHOW YOU.

HERE THEY ARE...

AND I'LL NEVER PART WITH THEM.

THEY'LL ALWAYS HAVE A SPECIAL MEANING FOR ME

BECAUSE THEY REMIND ME...

NEVER TO MAKE A HASTY JUDGMENT ABOUT CHARLES.

OH!

[CARRIAGE APPROACHING]

HA HA!

OH! HA HA! CHARLES!

HEY, WHOA! HOLD IT. HOLD IT.

WHOA! HEY, COME ON.

YOU'RE GOING TO GET ALL WET. I'M SOAKED TO THE SKIN.

I DON'T CARE. YOU'RE HERE.

OH, I'D HAVE BEEN HERE A LOT SOONER, TOO. I LOST A WHEEL,

AND I DIDN'T HAVE THE WAGON JACK, SO I HAD TO MAKE DO.

I GOT SO MAD THERE WAS STEAM COMING OFF ME.

WHY DON'T YOU GO INSIDE BEFORE YOU CATCH A CHILL?

NO, I'M ALL RIGHT.

LISTEN, I GOT SOMETHING FOR YOU.

OH, YOU REMEMBERED.

OF COURSE I REMEMBER.

HOW WAS I GOING TO FORGET? THERE YOU GO.

WELL, WHAT'S THE MATTER?

ISN'T THAT THE RIGHT SPICE?

WELL, YOU SAID A YELLOW CAN WITH A RED STRIPE--

STUFF YOU COULDN'T GET AT OLESON'S.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED FOR, CHARLES.

THANK YOU. I KNEW YOU'D REMEMBER.

WELL, I'LL WAIT FOR YOU INSIDE.

CAROLINE?

I DID GET YOU SOMETHING ELSE.

[GASPS]

IT'S A LITTLE SOMETHING SPECIAL

FOR A VERY SPECIAL LADY

ON A VERY, VERY SPECIAL DAY.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY.

MMM.

CHARLES INGALLS...

ON THIS VERY SPECIAL DAY...

MAY I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF THIS DANCE?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WHAT, OUT HERE?

UH-HUH, OUT HERE.

OH, CAROLINE, COME ON.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I JUST FEEL LIKE DANCING.

ALL RIGHT.

MRS. INGALLS, MAY I HAVE THIS DANCE?

HOW'S THAT FOR REMEMBERING?

I LOVE YOU. THAT'S REMEMBERING.
