2
00:01:51,033 --> 00:01:52,989
Do you want to see?
3
00:02:07,313 --> 00:02:12,068
Carrie, where do you think you're going?
Mary! Laura! Come to breakfast.
4
00:02:12,193 --> 00:02:15,981
All right, Ma.
Laura, hurry up!
5
00:02:16,113 --> 00:02:17,296
You heard Ma!
6
00:02:17,297 --> 00:02:22,029
Don't you dare make us late for school!
Not on the very first day.
7
00:02:22,153 --> 00:02:24,269
I'm not going.
8
00:02:28,913 --> 00:02:30,665
It's a fine morning.
-Isn't It?
9
00:02:30,793 --> 00:02:32,784
Good morning, Ma.
- Mary.
10
00:02:32,913 --> 00:02:35,666
Good morning, Pa.
-Morning Mary, Did you have a good sleep?
11
00:02:35,793 --> 00:02:39,149
Is Laura going to be ready?
- She says she's not going.
12
00:02:41,153 --> 00:02:43,542
Do not worry.
I'll see to it.
13
00:03:02,073 --> 00:03:04,503
What's the matter, Half Pint?
14
00:03:04,504 --> 00:03:06,430
I don't want to go.
15
00:03:14,633 --> 00:03:18,263
It's kind've of hard for me to hear you
with those covers over your heard.
16
00:03:18,264 --> 00:03:20,344
I don't want to go.
I want to stay here.
17
00:03:22,793 --> 00:03:25,353
And I wish you could stay.
18
00:03:25,473 --> 00:03:28,267
But I made a promise to your Ma.
19
00:03:28,268 --> 00:03:31,446
Told her, once we got settled,
if we were near a school, you and your sister would go.
20
00:03:32,633 --> 00:03:34,402
But you need me here.
21
00:03:34,503 --> 00:03:38,208
Who's gonna help you with the fish traps?
Who's gonna take care of Jack?
22
00:03:38,833 --> 00:03:42,109
You're gonna have time for all that.
23
00:03:42,233 --> 00:03:45,546
You wouldn't want me to break a promise
that I made to your ma', would you?
24
00:03:45,547 --> 00:03:47,724
No, Pa.
25
00:03:48,249 --> 00:03:49,849
That's my girl
26
00:03:50,233 --> 00:03:54,431
Now you hurry up and get dressed.
Breakfast is gonna get cold.
27
00:03:58,673 --> 00:04:02,905
Tell you something you don't know.
You're gonna like school.
28
00:04:04,473 --> 00:04:06,111
Yes, Pa.
29
00:04:08,073 --> 00:04:12,271
Let's have another look at those hands.
...That's fine.
30
00:04:12,393 --> 00:04:15,430
Ooh you too Carry, spic and span
31
00:04:15,553 --> 00:04:17,853
Ma, My neck hurts
-What?
32
00:04:17,854 --> 00:04:21,054
Mary scrubbed so hard she likely took the skin, clean off!
33
00:04:21,393 --> 00:04:23,630
You are big enough to do your
own scrubbing, only you won't!
34
00:04:23,631 --> 00:04:26,432
I don't like being big.
I wish I was Carrie.
35
00:04:29,793 --> 00:04:33,945
Ma, do you think they'll like us?
36
00:04:34,073 --> 00:04:38,286
What kind of a foolish question is that?
Of course they're like you!
37
00:04:38,287 --> 00:04:40,911
Just be friendly, and
mind your manners.
38
00:04:41,393 --> 00:04:44,963
Now let me have a better look at you.
Turn around.
39
00:04:49,673 --> 00:04:54,827
You girls are sprouting up so fast.
There's nothing left of those hems for me to let down.
40
00:04:55,993 --> 00:05:02,228
You're fresh and clean.
You're starting school, that's the important thing.
41
00:05:04,673 --> 00:05:08,586
Ma, How long is all this learning gonna take?
42
00:05:10,273 --> 00:05:13,470
We start learning when we're born, Laura.
43
00:05:13,593 --> 00:05:17,666
And if we are wise,
we don't stop until the lord calls us home.
44
00:05:18,833 --> 00:05:19,807
That long?
45
00:05:19,808 --> 00:05:23,702
Come. I have something special for you two.
46
00:05:38,673 --> 00:05:43,046
My schoolbooks are yours now.
Take good care of them.
47
00:05:43,073 --> 00:05:46,986
We will, Ma
- Well, time to get started.
48
00:05:47,153 --> 00:05:52,073
Laura, you take the lunch-pail.
Remember to bring it home, and the cloth!
49
00:05:52,298 --> 00:05:54,098
I will!
50
00:05:56,793 --> 00:05:58,281
Everybody's all set for school.
51
00:05:58,282 --> 00:06:01,583
No dawdlin' now.
I don't want to you be late the first day, all right
52
00:06:01,613 --> 00:06:03,646
Be good girls
- We will Ma.
53
00:06:03,671 --> 00:06:05,671
On your way, and have a good time!
54
00:06:14,153 --> 00:06:16,462
Bye Ma!
55
00:06:16,793 --> 00:06:18,749
Bye Pa!
56
00:06:26,913 --> 00:06:30,428
A lot of goodbyes from somebody
who's going to be home for supper.
57
00:06:34,713 --> 00:06:39,582
You hold it, young lady!
We get to hold on to you for a couple of years yet!
58
00:06:42,073 --> 00:06:43,950
There they go.
59
00:06:49,153 --> 00:06:51,826
Charles, They look so small.
60
00:06:53,393 --> 00:06:56,351
Stop worryin'.
61
00:07:15,313 --> 00:07:17,349
Come on, Laura.
62
00:07:36,713 --> 00:07:39,750
Come on, you're gonna make us late.
63
00:07:55,753 --> 00:07:57,823
Laura, come on!
64
00:08:09,873 --> 00:08:12,626
Go ahead, Laura
Uh uh, you first!
65
00:08:12,753 --> 00:08:13,698
Why me?
66
00:08:13,699 --> 00:08:17,699
Because you're always bragging about being older.
It's you're place to go first.
67
00:08:18,553 --> 00:08:20,828
We'll go together.
68
00:08:41,173 --> 00:08:44,495
From the sound of you, we figured we'd
come into a flock of prairie chickens
69
00:08:44,496 --> 00:08:44,995
Laura!
70
00:08:45,196 --> 00:08:52,270
Snipe yourself! Long lay your snipe!
Snipe! Snipe! Blind as a Snipe!
71
00:08:52,295 --> 00:08:56,595
... Snipe! Snipe!
...Blind as a Snipe!
72
00:08:56,993 --> 00:09:01,489
You stop being mean to them, or I'll tell mom on you!
- Go ahead Christie! See if I care!
73
00:09:10,153 --> 00:09:11,905
Country Girls
74
00:09:40,913 --> 00:09:43,347
Settle down children, settle down.
75
00:09:48,833 --> 00:09:51,472
Won't you come in girls?
76
00:10:13,753 --> 00:10:17,223
You must be the new girls from Plum creek, aren't you?
- Yes, Ma'am.
77
00:10:17,353 --> 00:10:18,436
I'm Miss Beadle.
78
00:10:18,437 --> 00:10:21,551
I'm Mary Ingalls, Ma'am.
And that's Laura.
79
00:10:21,673 --> 00:10:26,747
I'm very pleased to meet you.
I'll put your name in the register, and that will make it official.
80
00:10:32,593 --> 00:10:35,027
We have our own books.
81
00:10:36,113 --> 00:10:37,631
They belonged to ma.
82
00:10:37,632 --> 00:10:40,743
I can see she took fine care of them.
83
00:10:42,873 --> 00:10:45,990
How much schooling have you girls had?
84
00:10:46,713 --> 00:10:49,750
None. But I can read.
85
00:10:56,833 --> 00:11:00,792
I can't, but I know the alphabet.
I thought you ought to know.
86
00:11:02,433 --> 00:11:03,311
Thank you Laura.
87
00:11:03,312 --> 00:11:07,891
And don't you worry, you'll learn fast.
And I'll help you every spare minute I can.
88
00:11:07,913 --> 00:11:09,824
Thank you.
89
00:11:11,953 --> 00:11:18,028
Children, I'd like you to welcome two new students.
This is Mary and Laura Ingalls.
90
00:11:18,153 --> 00:11:20,064
Hello.
91
00:11:22,353 --> 00:11:27,108
Now I wouldn't call that much of a welcome.
We'd like to hear you say: "Good morning, Mary.''
92
00:11:27,753 --> 00:11:29,630
Good morning, Mary.
93
00:11:30,473 --> 00:11:32,191
And?
94
00:11:33,393 --> 00:11:35,304
Good morning, Laura.
95
00:11:37,513 --> 00:11:41,870
There's a nice place for you right up front,
that way you can sit together and share your books.
96
00:11:45,233 --> 00:11:47,585
Did you children bring a slate?
- No Ma'am
97
00:11:47,586 --> 00:11:52,630
Well, you can't learn to write properly, without a slate.
I'll lend you mine.
98
00:11:52,833 --> 00:11:54,585
Country girls
99
00:11:58,993 --> 00:12:02,781
Here you go
- Thank you, Miss Beadle.
- You're welcome
100
00:12:03,393 --> 00:12:06,234
Now Laura, I'd like you to turn to
the first page in your speller.
101
00:12:06,235 --> 00:12:08,990
Let's see how many new words you
can take home with you tonight.
102
00:12:09,113 --> 00:12:10,831
Yes, Ma'am!
103
00:12:15,233 --> 00:12:18,111
All right class,
today we're going to start with sums
104
00:12:21,593 --> 00:12:23,711
Willie?
- Yes, Ma'am
105
00:12:24,393 --> 00:12:26,211
By threes, please Willie
106
00:12:39,993 --> 00:12:43,668
Ma'am, how is he ever going to
get all those numbers off again?
107
00:12:47,993 --> 00:12:52,145
Silence!
There will be silence in this classroom!
108
00:12:57,633 --> 00:13:02,502
Willie, Laura has asked a question.
Will you please demonstrate the answer?
109
00:13:08,593 --> 00:13:10,982
Mary, look!
It's clean as a whistle!
110
00:13:12,473 --> 00:13:17,388
What did I tell you? Country girls
They don't even know what a blackboard is!
111
00:13:17,713 --> 00:13:19,385
Nellie!
112
00:13:28,353 --> 00:13:32,869
C-A-T Cat.
113
00:13:37,593 --> 00:13:41,871
B-A-T Bat.
114
00:13:45,713 --> 00:13:49,831
M-A-T Mat.
115
00:13:52,553 --> 00:13:57,581
P-A-T Pat.
116
00:13:58,313 --> 00:14:00,668
I learned the whole first row!
117
00:14:00,693 --> 00:14:02,593
How about if I give you one that
isn't even even on that first row?
118
00:14:02,594 --> 00:14:05,487
Let me see, what's a good word?
How about? Rat
119
00:14:09,193 --> 00:14:11,024
Rat.
120
00:14:13,793 --> 00:14:20,232
R-A-T. Rat
- Perfect!
121
00:14:21,593 --> 00:14:25,711
I'd say that was a fine day's work.
It seems to me, you kind've like school.
122
00:14:25,833 --> 00:14:29,733
Oh I do, Pa!
And you should just see Ms. Beadle
123
00:14:29,783 --> 00:14:33,050
She's the best teacher
in the whole world!
124
00:14:33,473 --> 00:14:38,706
And she smiles all the time!
and she smells as good as she looks!
125
00:14:38,833 --> 00:14:40,492
I came right out and asked!
126
00:14:40,493 --> 00:14:44,126
And she told me she wears something called
Lemon Verbina
127
00:14:44,353 --> 00:14:48,577
She is the most beautiful
lady I ever saw!
128
00:14:48,578 --> 00:14:51,131
Except for Ma, of course.
129
00:14:51,993 --> 00:14:55,136
Say, she must be something special,
to be even close to your ma.
130
00:14:55,137 --> 00:14:56,172
Oh, Charles
131
00:14:56,693 --> 00:14:58,576
How about you, Mary?
Did you like school today?
132
00:14:58,577 --> 00:15:03,732
There's a real nice girl named, Christie.
She'll probably be my best friend.
133
00:15:03,953 --> 00:15:05,540
Anybody in particular
you like, Laura?
134
00:15:05,541 --> 00:15:09,686
Someone in particular I don't like!
That snippy Nellie Olsen!
135
00:15:09,711 --> 00:15:10,712
Laura!
136
00:15:10,713 --> 00:15:14,103
You know what she called us?
Country Girls!
137
00:15:14,233 --> 00:15:16,542
Well you are a country girls,
there's nothing bad about that.
138
00:15:16,573 --> 00:15:17,728
Well, there is the way she said it!
139
00:15:18,429 --> 00:15:19,529
Look at the country girls!
140
00:15:20,572 --> 00:15:22,582
Made me so mad,
I wanted to smack her good!
141
00:15:23,273 --> 00:15:25,758
Now just minute, I don't want to
hear you talking like that.
142
00:15:25,859 --> 00:15:27,752
You go to school to learn, not to fight.
143
00:15:29,033 --> 00:15:31,870
Part of what you have to learn,
is how to get on with others
144
00:15:31,893 --> 00:15:34,851
All right.
I'll try.
145
00:15:35,513 --> 00:15:38,219
Young lady, you're going
to do a lot more than try.
146
00:15:38,220 --> 00:15:40,370
Remember Laura, 'Do unto others''
147
00:15:41,193 --> 00:15:45,182
That's right. That means no name calling,
no fighting, and no teasin'. Understood?
148
00:15:47,413 --> 00:15:48,539
Yes, Sir.
149
00:15:48,540 --> 00:15:50,291
All right.
150
00:15:53,293 --> 00:15:55,170
Here.
151
00:15:55,493 --> 00:15:57,990
Take that into Olsen's store tomorrow,
and buy yourselves a slate.
152
00:15:58,015 --> 00:16:00,215
You gotta have enough left over for a paper tablet.
153
00:16:01,413 --> 00:16:03,529
Oh Pa, thank you!
154
00:16:03,553 --> 00:16:05,703
Thank you.
155
00:16:06,353 --> 00:16:08,736
Then you're not mad at me?
156
00:16:08,737 --> 00:16:10,663
Well, not yet.
157
00:16:11,093 --> 00:16:15,166
But I will be...If you two are not up in bed,
quicker than I can say.... Jack
158
00:16:15,393 --> 00:16:17,384
Robinson!
159
00:16:23,673 --> 00:16:28,386
It's hard to believe that's the same little girl
we could hardly get out of bed this morning.
160
00:16:28,493 --> 00:16:31,293
I'd hoped she'd like it, but I didn't know.
161
00:16:31,303 --> 00:16:35,903
Nah, she'll be fine. Sure was feisty
about that Nellie Olsen though, wasn't she?
162
00:16:35,921 --> 00:16:36,991
I wonder why?
163
00:16:36,992 --> 00:16:38,208
Well, you haven't met her mother
164
00:16:38,241 --> 00:16:39,065
Have you?
165
00:16:39,066 --> 00:16:39,648
Mmm Hmm
166
00:16:39,973 --> 00:16:41,929
Pa?
167
00:16:42,193 --> 00:16:45,230
Hat.
H-A-T
168
00:16:45,353 --> 00:16:46,611
hat!
169
00:16:46,733 --> 00:16:47,874
B-E-D Bed!
170
00:16:48,275 --> 00:16:50,443
Good night, Pa.
171
00:16:51,513 --> 00:16:53,868
Good night, Laura.
172
00:16:59,793 --> 00:17:01,608
What are you doing?
173
00:17:01,609 --> 00:17:03,422
Fat. F-A-T Fat.
174
00:17:29,953 --> 00:17:31,830
Good morning!
- Good morning.
175
00:17:31,953 --> 00:17:34,069
I'll be with you in a minute, girls.
176
00:17:34,313 --> 00:17:38,704
Are you sure you got the money, Mary?
- In my pocket, right where Ma pinned it.
177
00:17:41,153 --> 00:17:42,557
Snipe! Snipe! Laura is snipe!
178
00:17:42,558 --> 00:17:45,883
Nellie, now you two get on out of
here, this store is not a play yard.
179
00:17:45,913 --> 00:17:49,030
Willie! Did you hear me? Out!
180
00:17:52,193 --> 00:17:54,707
Well, now what can I do for you today?
181
00:17:54,833 --> 00:17:58,667
We'd like a slate, Mr. Oleson.
And a paper tablet for school, please.
182
00:17:58,793 --> 00:18:00,624
I've got just what you need.
183
00:18:03,113 --> 00:18:04,944
Those are mine!
184
00:18:05,073 --> 00:18:08,458
Go ahead, keep it
It's all ours anyway.
185
00:18:08,459 --> 00:18:12,526
We can eat as much candy as we want.
186
00:18:12,953 --> 00:18:15,228
Here we are.
187
00:18:19,953 --> 00:18:22,342
Pa said that would be enough
to pay for both.
188
00:18:22,473 --> 00:18:23,715
And he was right.
189
00:18:23,716 --> 00:18:27,149
But you'll need a slate pencil,
unless you already have one.
190
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:28,543
No sir, we don't.
191
00:18:28,544 --> 00:18:31,232
Well that will be another penny.
192
00:18:31,353 --> 00:18:35,346
I don't think the country girls have another penny.
What do you think Willie?
193
00:18:35,473 --> 00:18:38,863
I'm telling you two for the last time!
Now you two get on out of here!
194
00:18:44,793 --> 00:18:49,448
Well, if you uh weren't planning on buying a pencil
I imagine you're a little short.
195
00:18:49,573 --> 00:18:53,625
You just take it along with you anyhow, and tell your pa
to pay me the next time he comes into town.
196
00:18:53,853 --> 00:18:59,166
No, sir. Cash on the barrel.
Pa makes that a strict rule!
197
00:18:59,393 --> 00:19:03,909
And it's a good one.
Though, most folks find it hard to live by.
198
00:19:04,033 --> 00:19:06,732
We thank you anyway, Mr. Oleson.
-You're welcome girls.
199
00:19:07,433 --> 00:19:09,231
Bye, bye
- Bye!
200
00:19:24,953 --> 00:19:30,988
That Nellie Oleson is the meaning girl, I ever did see.
I could never be that mean.
201
00:19:31,013 --> 00:19:36,406
I could! Meaner!
if ma' an pa' let me.
202
00:19:36,833 --> 00:19:40,038
We do need a slate pencil, Laura.
203
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:43,725
Pa gave us so much already!
We can't ask for more!
204
00:19:43,753 --> 00:19:45,471
No.
205
00:19:47,193 --> 00:19:49,761
Our Christmas pennies!
We still have those!
206
00:19:49,762 --> 00:19:52,870
I could use mine to buy the
pencil, and we'd share it!
207
00:19:52,893 --> 00:19:55,118
And you could own half my penny!
208
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,552
C'mon we'll be late for school.
209
00:20:21,433 --> 00:20:22,944
That's very good, Laura
210
00:20:29,433 --> 00:20:31,749
How
211
00:20:34,313 --> 00:20:36,143
Woo.. Woo
212
00:20:36,673 --> 00:20:39,149
Now the 'L' is silent
I know it's confusing, but
213
00:20:39,750 --> 00:20:43,592
Wood...wood
-..How..
214
00:20:43,593 --> 00:20:45,582
Would!
-That's right! That's right!
215
00:20:45,613 --> 00:20:47,968
How would..
216
00:20:55,433 --> 00:20:57,742
You!
- Yes.
217
00:20:58,513 --> 00:21:02,108
How would you...
- Licky?
218
00:21:02,233 --> 00:21:04,269
No. ...I
219
00:21:05,633 --> 00:21:07,828
Like!
- That's right.
220
00:21:08,073 --> 00:21:10,873
But what about the 'e'?
- Well, you don't. It's silent.
221
00:21:10,882 --> 00:21:13,882
Like the 'L'?
- That's right.
-Oh
222
00:21:32,473 --> 00:21:37,627
If I had a remembrance book,
There's one thing I'd want to put in it about school.
223
00:21:37,753 --> 00:21:40,870
Ma' and Pa' were right.
It was fun!
224
00:21:40,993 --> 00:21:45,066
Especially when all the different letters,
started turning into words
225
00:21:45,193 --> 00:21:49,789
Learning to write was one of the hardest things,
I ever hoped to do.
226
00:21:54,233 --> 00:21:56,503
Recess was supposed to be the most fun.
227
00:21:57,833 --> 00:22:02,907
Only, Nellie Olsen wouldn't ever let us play anything else
but Ring-Around-The-Rosey.
228
00:22:03,033 --> 00:22:05,627
Can not we play something else?
229
00:22:06,673 --> 00:22:11,383
I didn't want to.
But Ma' said, 'Do unto others'.
230
00:22:11,513 --> 00:22:15,825
I couldn't help wondering, when Nellie's Ma
would get around to telling her the same thing.
231
00:22:17,233 --> 00:22:21,943
There we are, Mrs. Grandy.
- Did you say, 60 cents?
- That's right
232
00:22:22,073 --> 00:22:26,828
Thank you. Give my best to Eli,
and tell him not to make himself such a stranger. Hmm?
233
00:22:26,953 --> 00:22:30,707
Thank you Nells, I will.
- Good-day, Mrs. Grandy.
- Good day, Nells.
234
00:22:43,513 --> 00:22:47,950
Hello, I am Mrs. lngalls.
- Well, how do you do, Mrs. lngalls?
235
00:22:48,073 --> 00:22:51,509
I believe my husband spoke with you?
236
00:22:51,633 --> 00:22:55,228
Fresh eggs. He said you'd buy them.
- Yes, we do!
237
00:22:55,353 --> 00:22:57,821
I do the buying.
238
00:23:00,713 --> 00:23:04,388
Mrs. Ingalls, my wife
- How do you do, Mrs. Oleson?
239
00:23:04,513 --> 00:23:07,949
Nellie has told me about your ... uh girls.
240
00:23:08,073 --> 00:23:11,145
All good I hope.
- Now how many do we have here?
241
00:23:11,273 --> 00:23:13,104
Three dozen.
242
00:23:17,233 --> 00:23:18,985
Brown?!
243
00:23:19,113 --> 00:23:23,584
Half these eggs are brown.
Well they don't bring as much as white.
244
00:23:25,233 --> 00:23:28,066
Seven of them are double yolks.
245
00:23:28,193 --> 00:23:31,788
Brown eggs, get four cents less a dozen.
246
00:23:36,593 --> 00:23:39,949
All right.
Four cents less for the brown.
247
00:23:51,113 --> 00:23:53,069
Here you go.
Go on, boy.
248
00:24:07,673 --> 00:24:12,189
Pretty quiet tonight.
- Yes, hasn't been a word out of them for more than an hour.
249
00:24:12,313 --> 00:24:14,383
I was talkin' about you.
250
00:24:16,473 --> 00:24:19,192
I met Mrs. Olsen today.
251
00:24:23,233 --> 00:24:27,511
If Nellie's anything like her mother,
I can understand why Laura's been so upset.
252
00:24:29,153 --> 00:24:34,671
Do you know what she told me?!
She told me brown eggs bring less than white!
253
00:24:34,793 --> 00:24:36,943
Must be something peculiar to Minnesota.
I've never heard of that before.
254
00:24:37,111 --> 00:24:40,031
You've never heard it before because it's isn't true.
255
00:24:40,353 --> 00:24:45,711
She paid me four cents less a dozen for the brown.
And then she turned around and sold them for exactly the same as the white!
256
00:24:45,833 --> 00:24:47,903
I was buying this thread!
I heard her do it!
257
00:24:48,033 --> 00:24:51,503
I'll talk to her husband, he's a fair man.
- No!
258
00:24:51,633 --> 00:24:57,981
If you do that, she won't buy any eggs, and we need the money.
I'll handle it.
259
00:24:58,633 --> 00:25:04,742
Want to fight your own battles, huh?
- This one. And Charles, I intend to win!
260
00:25:09,273 --> 00:25:12,071
Just remember:'' Do unto others. ''
261
00:25:34,553 --> 00:25:36,924
Come on, Laura.
Don't you want to play?
262
00:25:36,925 --> 00:25:40,185
Why do we always have to
play 'ring-around-the-rosy?
263
00:25:40,313 --> 00:25:42,349
Because I say so.
264
00:25:49,113 --> 00:25:53,231
... All fall down ...
Uncle John is sick in bed
what shall we send him?
265
00:25:53,353 --> 00:25:55,947
Laura Ingalls, you stop that!
266
00:25:56,073 --> 00:25:59,952
Apple and dumping!
What shall we send it in?!
267
00:26:00,073 --> 00:26:01,745
Stop!
268
00:26:01,873 --> 00:26:07,231
You have it your way, every single day Nellie!
Well today, I want to play 'Uncle John'!
269
00:26:07,353 --> 00:26:11,312
Ring around the Rosey!
-Uncle John!
270
00:26:12,993 --> 00:26:17,987
You want to fight? I'll fight!
You wanna play? We're playing 'Uncle John!
271
00:26:20,473 --> 00:26:22,350
Go on, go ahead.
272
00:26:22,473 --> 00:26:24,509
So I did what you said I shouldn't.
273
00:26:25,913 --> 00:26:30,125
I did unto Nellie,
but not what you had in mind.
274
00:26:30,153 --> 00:26:33,193
I'm sorry for going against you.
275
00:26:33,394 --> 00:26:39,511
It seemed like it kept building up
inside me, right from that first day.
276
00:26:40,953 --> 00:26:44,666
At least you did one thing right, Half Pint
- I did?
-Mm hm.
277
00:26:44,793 --> 00:26:49,742
You came to us and told us on your own.
Your Ma and I didn't have to hear it from somebody else.
278
00:26:50,953 --> 00:26:53,103
Now what do you think we ought to do about it?
279
00:26:53,233 --> 00:26:57,943
Whatever you think's best Pa.
But she did start it!
280
00:27:02,793 --> 00:27:09,107
And you thought you had good reason for what you did.
And this time, just for once I'm inclined to agree with you.
281
00:27:09,553 --> 00:27:13,671
The important thing is,
are you going to do it again?
-No, Pa.
282
00:27:14,393 --> 00:27:15,901
Is that a promise?
283
00:27:15,902 --> 00:27:16,907
Promise.
284
00:27:19,393 --> 00:27:23,068
All right, we won't say anymore about it.
Off to bed.
285
00:27:31,553 --> 00:27:36,832
Half Pint, and don't forget now, you made a promise!
You won't do it again!
286
00:27:36,953 --> 00:27:42,186
Oh no Pa, I won't.
I won't have to, Nellie's scared of me now!
287
00:27:50,713 --> 00:27:54,422
Charles, you were must too easy on her.
She's not the least bit sorry for what she did.
288
00:27:54,553 --> 00:27:59,104
You heard what the child said, it was Nellie's fault.
-The bible says to turn the other cheek.
289
00:27:59,233 --> 00:28:03,863
Well I think that's sometimes easier said than done,
or we'd all be wearing halo's instead of homespun.
290
00:28:09,393 --> 00:28:12,032
You're as bad as she is!
291
00:28:14,153 --> 00:28:17,543
Well at least she comes by it honestly.
292
00:28:50,793 --> 00:28:54,547
Good Morning, Mrs. lngalls.
- Good morning, Mr. Oleson.
293
00:28:55,753 --> 00:28:59,428
I expect you're here to apologize
for what happened yesterday at the school.
294
00:28:59,553 --> 00:29:03,910
I'm here to sell eggs, Mrs. Oleson.
295
00:29:04,713 --> 00:29:09,833
I might have expected as much.
Let me tell you something, Mrs. Ingalls.
296
00:29:09,953 --> 00:29:14,031
Your daughter, Laura is a troublemaker.
And you best take her in hand.
297
00:29:14,353 --> 00:29:18,305
Starting fights in the schoolyard,
and pushing other children around!
298
00:29:18,633 --> 00:29:22,831
Nellie apparently has her own version of the truth.
If you care to question the other childre--
299
00:29:22,953 --> 00:29:26,628
Brown eggs are still 4 cents less.
300
00:29:30,393 --> 00:29:32,344
You didn't bring any brown eggs.
301
00:29:32,345 --> 00:29:35,362
Oh, my husband sold them
to the men at Hanson's mill.
302
00:29:35,393 --> 00:29:38,624
for three cents more than you paid me.
303
00:29:38,753 --> 00:29:40,733
That's gratitude.
304
00:29:40,734 --> 00:29:44,111
No, that's good business.
305
00:29:44,233 --> 00:29:47,350
Maybe they'll buy the white eggs as well.
306
00:29:47,473 --> 00:29:51,105
As a matter of fact, my husband
said they'd be glad to get them
307
00:29:51,106 --> 00:29:53,191
Good Day, Mrs. Oleson.
308
00:29:54,673 --> 00:29:56,504
Oh, now, Mrs. lngalls!
309
00:29:57,993 --> 00:30:02,623
I'm a very busy woman!
Too busy to quibble over pennies!
310
00:30:03,153 --> 00:30:07,988
We'll buy your brown eggs.
Same price as the white.
311
00:30:16,153 --> 00:30:21,910
If it's yard good you're after, Mrs. Ingalls,
you'll find this is more to your needs.
312
00:30:22,033 --> 00:30:25,992
Thank you, Mrs. Oleson.
I prefer this.
313
00:30:26,113 --> 00:30:31,631
It won't wear well.
Country folk have to think more on the practical.
314
00:30:31,753 --> 00:30:35,189
I'll take the blue.
- It will be a mistake.
315
00:30:35,313 --> 00:30:37,543
Then it will be my mistake.
316
00:30:37,673 --> 00:30:42,952
I believe it's customary to let the
buyer do the choosing, Mrs. Oleson.
317
00:30:43,073 --> 00:30:47,385
That's quite all right.
- Well, I beg your pardon.
318
00:30:48,353 --> 00:30:50,331
I'll take a dress length please.
319
00:30:50,373 --> 00:30:55,273
Well it does come dear, but there's not a finer piece of goods in the store
320
00:30:56,353 --> 00:31:00,028
This will look right smart on you, Mrs. lngalls.
321
00:31:06,073 --> 00:31:09,588
Don't touch, Laura!
You'll get it all grubby.
322
00:31:09,713 --> 00:31:13,752
I do not know what possessed me,
spending so much money on myself.
323
00:31:13,873 --> 00:31:17,582
If Mrs. Olsen just hadn't gone on so about "Country Folks"
324
00:31:17,713 --> 00:31:20,307
As if all we're fit to wear, is flower sacks.
325
00:31:20,433 --> 00:31:24,062
I'm glad you bought it.
- So am I.
- So am I.
326
00:31:27,673 --> 00:31:30,712
'' Pride goeth before a fall"
327
00:31:30,713 --> 00:31:34,412
I'll just take it back, and see if
Mr. Oleson will give me the money on it.
328
00:31:37,313 --> 00:31:42,341
Now Caroline, Why do you think the good Lord went to
all that trouble of making you so pretty,
if he didn't want you to have a new blue dress?
329
00:31:44,273 --> 00:31:45,945
You'll be beautiful ma'!
330
00:31:46,073 --> 00:31:51,705
I can't wait until everyone sees you.
They're going to think they're looking at a piece of heaven!
331
00:31:51,833 --> 00:31:55,030
If they don't think that already,
I can't say much for their judgment, or their eyesight.
332
00:31:57,033 --> 00:31:59,388
What am I going to do with you!?
333
00:32:02,993 --> 00:32:06,463
What am I going to do with the lot of you!?
334
00:32:13,193 --> 00:32:18,711
Ma gathered enough eggs to walk us into town,
two or three times, every week
335
00:32:18,833 --> 00:32:22,428
Sometimes she'd tell us about when
she was a little girl.
336
00:32:22,553 --> 00:32:28,662
I tried scrunching her down in my mind
So I could see her all barefoot, pigtails flying
337
00:32:28,793 --> 00:32:32,866
But it never did work,
She kept right on being Ma'
338
00:32:32,993 --> 00:32:38,306
Which was all right,
since we loved her a whole lot
339
00:32:38,633 --> 00:32:42,467
Rithmitic' was easy,
but I liked reading most of all.
340
00:32:42,593 --> 00:32:44,311
But writing!
341
00:32:44,433 --> 00:32:48,579
I didn't think I'd ever learn to put
down big words the way Mary did!
342
00:32:48,580 --> 00:32:50,429
Not even with Ma to help me.
343
00:32:53,553 --> 00:32:56,750
Wait up Mary! Don't tell til' I get there!
-Ma! Ma!
344
00:32:56,873 --> 00:32:59,990
What's the matter?
- Where's Pa?
345
00:33:00,113 --> 00:33:03,344
What's going on down there?
- We're going to have a visitors' day!
346
00:33:03,473 --> 00:33:07,989
Practically everybody in town will be there!
You, and ma, and all the parents, and all the kids!
347
00:33:08,113 --> 00:33:09,990
And you get to see where Mary and me sit.
348
00:33:10,113 --> 00:33:13,293
And we all have to write what they
call an essay, about anything we want.
349
00:33:13,294 --> 00:33:15,141
And stand up in front
and read it out loud
350
00:33:15,273 --> 00:33:20,347
And you can wear your new blue dress!
You better get started on that Ma. It's the end of this week!
351
00:33:20,473 --> 00:33:22,682
You two better get busy on
your essays, right now!
352
00:33:22,683 --> 00:33:24,422
We will!
- Come on!
353
00:33:28,553 --> 00:33:33,581
And wait til' you smell
Ms. Beadle?s Lemon Verbina!
354
00:33:40,753 --> 00:33:45,065
Ma, and Mary and me worked hard and steady
that whole week.
355
00:33:45,193 --> 00:33:47,787
But before we knew it, time was up.
356
00:33:47,913 --> 00:33:53,226
Visitors' day was the next morning.
Ma's dress was pretty near done,
357
00:33:53,353 --> 00:33:55,821
And so was Mary's essay.
358
00:33:55,953 --> 00:33:57,864
Well, I'm finished.
359
00:33:58,473 --> 00:34:00,828
Know what I wrote about?
- What dear?
360
00:34:00,953 --> 00:34:05,981
About Pa building the little house on the prairie
and the wolves, and the indians,
361
00:34:06,113 --> 00:34:10,913
and having to move on,
and how we came to plum creek.
362
00:34:10,915 --> 00:34:11,912
How's that sound?
363
00:34:11,913 --> 00:34:15,792
That sounds good to me.
What did you write about, Laura?
364
00:34:15,913 --> 00:34:19,030
It's a surprise.
365
00:34:19,153 --> 00:34:24,181
Well that's fair enough. I'll tell you,
that surprise is gonna come pretty early in the morning.
366
00:34:24,313 --> 00:34:31,151
It's about time for you girls to be getting to bed.
I know it's time for Carrie and me.
367
00:34:31,793 --> 00:34:34,705
Come on, Laura.
- In a minute.
368
00:34:45,953 --> 00:34:49,423
What is it, Laura?
The essay?
369
00:34:50,953 --> 00:34:54,263
It's not an essay.
Not like Mary's.
370
00:34:54,393 --> 00:34:59,751
It's not supposed to be like Mary's.
She's older that you. She knows more words.
371
00:34:59,873 --> 00:35:01,864
I know lots of words Ma.
372
00:35:01,993 --> 00:35:07,192
Trouble is, they're in my head.
And I can't get em' down on paper, like they're supposed to be.
373
00:35:07,313 --> 00:35:11,511
All I know how to write is little words.
-That's all you're supposed to know.
374
00:35:11,633 --> 00:35:16,946
You're just saying that to make me feel better.
-I'm saying that because it's true!
375
00:35:17,073 --> 00:35:23,262
Ma, if I was to tell you something, could you keep it secret?
376
00:35:23,393 --> 00:35:26,305
If you asked me to, of course.
377
00:35:27,033 --> 00:35:28,864
I'm scared.
378
00:35:28,993 --> 00:35:34,511
I'm scared of getting up in front of all those people.
I just know they're going to laugh at me.
379
00:35:34,953 --> 00:35:38,662
Darling, they won't laugh!
380
00:35:38,793 --> 00:35:43,264
All that Ms. Beadle asks of you, is that you do your best.
381
00:35:43,393 --> 00:35:47,784
And as long as you do your best, Laura
we'll always be proud of you.
382
00:35:47,913 --> 00:35:52,270
But they laughed before, when they
called us long-legged snipes!
383
00:35:52,393 --> 00:35:57,751
That was just teasing!
And that was before they knew you.
384
00:35:57,873 --> 00:36:03,106
But what if they do laugh?
385
00:36:05,633 --> 00:36:07,988
They won't Laura!
They won't!
386
00:36:34,353 --> 00:36:36,230
Caroline?
387
00:36:38,273 --> 00:36:39,991
Caroline?
388
00:36:43,553 --> 00:36:45,191
Are you all right?
389
00:36:45,313 --> 00:36:49,704
Everything's fine Charles.
I'm sorry if the light disturbed you.
390
00:36:50,953 --> 00:36:53,228
It must be midnight, why don't you come to bed?
391
00:36:54,153 --> 00:36:58,829
I will. As soon as I'm finished.
Good night.
392
00:37:17,473 --> 00:37:19,862
Come on girls!
Time for breakfast!
393
00:37:24,553 --> 00:37:27,943
Mornin' Pa!
-Mornin' Mary!
394
00:37:29,113 --> 00:37:32,742
Mornin' Pa!
-Mornin' sweetie!
395
00:37:34,353 --> 00:37:36,071
Good morning.
396
00:37:48,793 --> 00:37:53,150
Ma, you used your yard goods to make dresses for us.
397
00:37:53,273 --> 00:37:57,903
And why not?
My brown dress is perfectly good.
398
00:37:59,353 --> 00:38:02,425
Besides I don't have to get up in front of
all of those people, like you do.
399
00:38:02,553 --> 00:38:06,626
We wouldn't haven't minded wearing our calicoes.
-We wouldn't have minded.
400
00:38:06,753 --> 00:38:09,062
Well I would have minded!
401
00:38:09,793 --> 00:38:12,261
How long are you going to make me wait to see how they look on you!?
402
00:38:12,393 --> 00:38:14,827
I'm going to put mine on right now!
403
00:38:14,953 --> 00:38:18,070
I surely do love you, Ma!
404
00:38:23,433 --> 00:38:25,344
You are quite a woman, Ma.
405
00:38:28,273 --> 00:38:33,950
I want a new dress for my dolly.
- You'll get one, sweetheart.
406
00:38:35,553 --> 00:38:38,545
I have been riding horses all of my days..
407
00:38:38,673 --> 00:38:43,473
I like riding horses--
more than I like--
408
00:38:43,498 --> 00:38:45,498
Laughter
409
00:38:45,523 --> 00:38:47,523
More than I like
410
00:38:48,353 --> 00:38:50,184
I like riding horses
411
00:38:50,313 --> 00:38:54,465
My Pa is going to buy me a pony.
412
00:38:54,593 --> 00:38:58,593
He will let me pick out any pony in the town
413
00:38:58,686 --> 00:39:01,213
To buy for me, for my birthday.
414
00:39:10,673 --> 00:39:12,823
Thank you, Willie.
415
00:39:13,313 --> 00:39:15,873
And now we'll hear from Nellie Olsen.
416
00:39:23,633 --> 00:39:25,464
'' My home.''
417
00:39:25,593 --> 00:39:29,427
My home is the best house in all of Walnut Grove.
418
00:39:29,553 --> 00:39:32,829
We have carpets in every room.
Bought-en carpets.
419
00:39:32,953 --> 00:39:36,946
We have three sets of dishes.
One for everyday, one for Sunday.
420
00:39:37,073 --> 00:39:39,223
And one for when someone--
421
00:39:43,993 --> 00:39:49,192
For someone who is special and very important comes to visit,
which we've never even used yet.
422
00:39:49,313 --> 00:39:54,467
We have real lace curtains and six genuine oil paintings.
423
00:40:04,993 --> 00:40:06,665
And six genuine oil paintings.
424
00:40:06,793 --> 00:40:10,069
And I have my own room, and Willie has his own.
425
00:40:10,193 --> 00:40:13,591
All of our furniture is bought-en too.
And it cost a whole lot.
426
00:40:13,592 --> 00:40:16,666
If I told you how much, you'd
probably faint dead away.
427
00:40:16,691 --> 00:40:21,491
But my Pa Olsen's Mercantile says talking about
how much things cost isn't proper.
428
00:40:21,953 --> 00:40:24,626
But it cost dear, I can tell you that.
429
00:40:24,753 --> 00:40:28,905
And it's the nicest furniture, of any furniture
in any house, in all of Walnut Grove.
430
00:40:37,193 --> 00:40:40,868
Thank you, Nellie.
And now we'll hear from Laura Ingalls.
431
00:41:00,393 --> 00:41:02,384
'' My mother.''
432
00:41:02,673 --> 00:41:09,272
My sister Mary is going to tell you how Pa brought us West,
and how hard he worked.
433
00:41:09,393 --> 00:41:15,423
And I don't mean to take anything from him by telling you,
Ma worked plenty hard herself.
434
00:41:15,553 --> 00:41:19,921
Still does.
She cooks, and sews, and cleans.
435
00:41:19,922 --> 00:41:22,327
She takes care of the lot of us.
436
00:41:22,328 --> 00:41:23,686
Pa included.
437
00:41:24,473 --> 00:41:28,432
I remember once when I was little,
coming down with the fever.
438
00:41:28,553 --> 00:41:34,708
Ma sat up next to me, all night long.
I slept some. But she, never.
439
00:41:34,833 --> 00:41:41,306
Any time I'd open my eyes, she'd be there smiling,
holding a cold cloth to my head.
440
00:41:42,273 --> 00:41:46,789
Now with me and Mary, 'sprouting up',
which is what Ma calls it.
441
00:41:46,913 --> 00:41:49,950
If there's the least littlest noise in the night,
442
00:41:50,073 --> 00:41:55,352
Ma would come climbing up the ladder into the loft,
to make sure we're all right.
443
00:41:55,473 --> 00:42:00,593
I reckon there's times she gets bone tired,
but you'd never know it.
444
00:42:00,713 --> 00:42:05,309
Her smile is the last thing I see before I close my eyes at night.
445
00:42:05,433 --> 00:42:08,869
And the first thing I want to see in the morning.
446
00:42:08,993 --> 00:42:16,104
She's been selling eggs to the Mercantile, and saved
enough to buy yard goods to make herself a new dress.
447
00:42:16,233 --> 00:42:21,261
This morning, Mary and me found out
she made dresses for the two of us instead.
448
00:42:21,393 --> 00:42:24,544
That's because she loves us.
449
00:42:24,673 --> 00:42:29,872
That's the kind of mother Ma is.
And that's why we love her so much.
450
00:42:46,833 --> 00:42:51,190
Thank you, Laura.
And now we'll hear from Sandy Kennedy.
451
00:42:56,273 --> 00:43:01,028
Summer is nice and fun.
You can swim and play and have- all- kinds- of- fun.
452
00:43:23,993 --> 00:43:27,463
You are a lucky man, Mr. Ingalls.
- Thank you, Mr. Oleson.
453
00:43:27,593 --> 00:43:30,665
It's the only thing in this life I am absolutely sure of.
454
00:43:34,953 --> 00:43:37,183
Very lucky.
Ma'am
455
00:43:38,593 --> 00:43:41,949
Ma', Pa' what'd you think? Did you like my essay?
456
00:43:42,073 --> 00:43:43,984
I thought it was lovely Mary.
457
00:43:44,113 --> 00:43:48,391
You made me out to be a bit of a hero.
But I guess I can't fault you for that.
458
00:43:56,033 --> 00:43:58,342
Laura.
459
00:43:58,473 --> 00:44:04,184
What you said today was beautiful,
and I'll treasure it as long as I live.
460
00:44:04,953 --> 00:44:09,902
But, it wasn't what you had
written down on the paper, was it?
461
00:44:11,593 --> 00:44:14,061
It's what I would have written,
if I could.
462
00:44:14,193 --> 00:44:19,904
I know that dear.
But it wasn't really an essay, was it?
463
00:44:22,713 --> 00:44:24,624
No, Ma.
464
00:44:37,233 --> 00:44:42,591
I think I better give it Miss Beadle.
What do you think she'll do?
465
00:44:42,713 --> 00:44:45,102
That's up to Ms. Beadle.
466
00:45:15,833 --> 00:45:20,065
Oh Mrs. Ingalls! You and your husband
must be very proud of your girls today!
467
00:45:20,193 --> 00:45:20,993
We are!
468
00:45:21,093 --> 00:45:22,369
And you, young lady!
469
00:45:22,370 --> 00:45:26,447
You gave one of the finest recitations
it's been my pleasure to hear.
470
00:45:29,993 --> 00:45:34,032
Laura wanted you to see her paper, Ms. Beadle.
471
00:45:43,553 --> 00:45:48,911
Laura's spelling has improved a great deal.
472
00:45:49,033 --> 00:45:52,423
Her penmanship needs a little improvement.
473
00:45:52,553 --> 00:45:58,264
But I think with a little more hard work,
by the time the school year's out, she'll have that mastered as well.
474
00:46:04,073 --> 00:46:06,189
Thank you, Miss Beadle.
475
00:46:30,873 --> 00:46:33,865
Ma took Mary's essay and mine too,
476
00:46:33,993 --> 00:46:39,863
She said she was going to put them in the special box
where she kept her school books, and her wedding dress
477
00:46:39,993 --> 00:46:42,632
and everything she loved most
478
00:46:42,753 --> 00:46:45,631
It made us proud she'd want 'em for remembering
479
00:46:45,753 --> 00:46:51,113
But I knew even without the papers,
there wasn't one of us likely to forget that day.
480
00:46:51,113 --> 00:46:54,570
Not ever.
481
