[Birds chirping]

[Country music playing on radio]

[Sputtering]

I can't believe it.
100 bucks and the thing
still doesn't work.

Oh, does it matter?
I sort of enjoy saunas
in the middle of summer.

Aw, come on.
Don't be that way.

You know you enjoy
hunting antiques
just as much as I do.

I know.

It's just it always
seems we're on some
back road somewhere.

That's where
the best pieces
are found.

You know that.

Do me a favor.

What's that?

- If we find some really
good bargains...
- Mm-hmm?

Promise me that we'll
buy a new truck

with air conditioning
that works.

All right, all right.
I promise, I promise.
And cheer up, huh?

Oh! This is it.

- Yeah.
- Turn right
at the next road.

Auctioneer: High bid $75,
$30 bid for it.
$30 bid. Now $90.

$90 bid for it...
[Auctioneering continues]

Auctioneer: Going once,

going twice,

and sold!

The next item up is
this beautiful table.

The piece is
all hand-carved,

and we've placed its
origin to be somewhere
in the mid to late 1330s.

It bears
its crafter's Mark.

It needs to be stripped,

but there's a fine
piece of furniture
under that paint.

I'm going to start
the bidding at $50.

- $50.
- $50 bid for it.

- 55.
- High bid 50--
55's the bid for it.

- 55, $60 bid for it.
- 60?

High bid 65,
$70 bid for it.

$70's the money.
Bid now at 30.

- $30 bid for it.
High bid 30.
- 35!

35's the bid for it.

35, going 90.
Bid 90? 90 going...

[Auctioneering continues]

Well, that's
the last
of it, Sven.

Sign on
the bottom line.

Your men made
real good time
this trip.

Well, you can thank
Jack for that.

He wanted to
get back before
the weather changed

or something
like that.

Oh, Charles,
don't you be
telling tales

about who
wanted to get
back too soon.

You're the one
who forgot his
long Johns, remember?

[Laughter]

Anyway, thank you
for bringing the table.
It's beautiful.

Well, sorry
it took so long.
We were pretty busy.

Listen to me,
Charles,

if you decide to
become a craftsman
full-time,

I'll buy anything
you can make.

That's very kind,
Sven, but I just
do it for a hobby.

We'd better be
getting back.

You're going to be
freezing your seat
off for sure.

You're right,
Jack.

Thanks again.
We'll see you
next week.

Thank you.

It's starting
to turn cold.

You all right?

Rubbing that arm
of yours all day.

I feel
a little tingly.

Well, must be
the cold.

Besides old age,
of course.

Ha ha!
Come on, Jack.

Sounds like
you're ready for
a rocking chair.

Sometimes it don't
seem that far off.

Ah, you work circles
around the young 'uns

in walnut grove,
and you know it.

Yeah...maybe.

You know, I'm going
to be pushing 60 in
a few more years.

The end of that old
tunnel is gonna be
staring right at me.

And you'll see.

When you get to
be as old as me,

you're going to
feel the same way.

Well, thanks
for the advice,
Methuselah.

[Laughing]

What do you say we
stop and make camp?

Build a little fire
and you can warm up those
old bones of yours.

- Let's do it.
- [Laughs]

[Thunder]

If we'd known it was
this bad, we could have
stayed in a hotel room.

Yeah.

Eh, we'll just
have to make do.

- Charles?
- Yeah?

Leave the lamp for
a minute, will you?

Sure.

Do you ever want
to do something
different...

Just for the sake
of doing it?

I don't know. Like what?

Just...

Different.

Something...

Well...

Important-like.

Leaving your stamp...

So the world will know
you've been there.

You want to
be famous, Jack?

No, nothing
like that.

Well...maybe just
a little bit.

[Laughter]

I mean...

You get born...

You grow up...

You get married,
and you build
a house or two...

Have children...

And you work
whatever you can
to pay for it all--

farming,
hauling freight,
whatever.

And the kids
grow up.

They move away.

Suddenly,
there you are.

[Thunder]

You're facing
the idea...

That never once did
you do something...

Special...

Just for you to
be remembered by.

Well, like what?

I don't know.
That's just it.
I don't know!

Something!
Something...

That lasts...

[Thunder]

That tells folks
that Jack Prescott

once walked
on this earth...

And left this behind
to remind them.

[Thunder]

Well, you sure
are in a mood,
aren't you?

Yeah.

Boy, I...

I'm not sure I
even know what
I'm talking about.

Good night, Charles.

Good night, Jack.

Jack:
Uh, Charles?

Leave the lamp.

Sure.

[Thunder]

[Jack groaning]

Jack...jack,
what's the matter?

My arm. I ain't
feeling it.

My chest
is on fire.

- Just lie down.
- I can't breathe!

Just lie down.

I can't breathe!

- I can't breathe!
- Jack!

- Charles, I can't breathe!
- Jack, just lie down!

Just lie
down, Jack!

- I can't--I can't--
- Jack, just lie down!

- I can't breathe!
- Jack!

[Thunder]

Jack!

[Thunder]

Jack!

Jack.

Jack.

Jack.

Alden: We render
to you, O lord, the body
of your son Jack.

We ask that you welcome
him to your kingdom

and give strength
to his loved ones
who are left behind.

Amen.

Now, ma, you
must realize there
is no other way.

And you can't
stay here
by yourself!

Now, Sara
has agreed--

Matthew. I'll get by.

I always have before.

Mother,
Matthew's right.

You can't run this farm
by yourself.

Besides, pa couldn't
raise a crop.

What makes you
think you can?

Now, listen here,
both of you!

No, ma,
you listen.

Now, Sara and I
are entitled to
our fair share

with this
place, too,

and the only way
that any of us

are going
to get it
is to sell.

I'll not have you selling

what your father
spent years building.

I'm staying.

Mother, you're coming
to live with me,
and that's final.

[Knock on door]

Oh, Mr. Ingalls.

Matthew, I'm sorry
to disturb you.

Is your mom
up to talking
for a minute?

Of course, Charles.
Come in, come in.

Dolphia.

I just wanted
to drop by

and leave you these
carving chisels
Jack had loaned me.

I thought you'd
like to have them.

Oh...

You keep them, Charles.

Jack only bought them
because he admired
your work so much.

He thought maybe one
day he might give it
a try, you know?

Well, thank you
very much.

Put them to good use.

Jack would like that.

Well, I'd like to
carve him a proper
grave marker,

if it's all
right with you.

Oh, yes, Charles.

I'd be so grateful.

I'll do it,
then.

I'd best be
on my way.

Oh, won't you
stay a while?
Have some coffee.

No, I really have
to be getting back.

I'll stop by and see
you in a few days.

All right.

- Matthew.
- Mr. Ingalls.

Matthew: Now,
mother, Sara has made
a generous offer.

Dolphia:
I told you, I'm not
selling this farm.

Sara: How will you live?
Where will you get the money?

Dolphia: I'll...Work.
I'll take in sewing.

Matthew: Look, I'm
not going to argue
with you anymore.

Now the farm is
as much ours
as it is yours.

Now, I'm going
to contact
an attorney and see

what Sara and I
can do about it.

Dolphia: You'd do that
to your own mother?

Matthew: You leave
me no choice.

How's it coming?

Just about done.

What do you think?

Charles,
it's beautiful.

Dolly will be
so pleased.

Yeah, make it worth
the 3 days it's
taken to finish it.

You know,
it's funny--
somebody dies,

you usually
feel so helpless.

For once, I really
feel like I can
do something.

Must be a good feeling.

Yeah.

He was a good
friend to me.

I'll get it set up
this afternoon and
go over to Dolly's

and take her
out to see it.

I'll let you finish up.

[Hammering]

[Hammering]

[Laughing]

Now come on,
you two.

Pick up some wood.
Take it inside here.

How are you?

Good morning.
Name's Josh Bennett.

- Oh, Charles Ingalls.
- Nice to meet you.

Woman: Josh!
I need your help.

Right now,
Bertie.

As you can see,
we're just
moving in.

Yeah. Just when was
the farm sold?

About 3 days ago.
Land auction.

Seems there was
a death, and the family
needed the money,

so I got the place
real cheap.

I see.

Well, I'd better
get going. It was
nice meeting you.

A pleasure.

Josh: What do
you need, honey?

[Crickets chirping]

Beautiful night.

Yeah.

Late, too.

You said you were
leaving early
in the morning.

I'm just not sleepy.

I know it's
hard to believe.

Only two weeks ago,
Jack was trying to
tell me his thoughts.

I really didn't understand
what he was saying at
the time, but now I do.

He sensed it was going
to turn out this way.

What way?

Charles,
the man died.

And all there is
to remember him
is a grave.

And all his
children wanted

was the money
they could get
out of the house.

They forced their mother
to go with them.

And today
strangers moved in.

A brand-new sign
on the house.

The old one just
thrown in the dirt,

just tossed away.

And nothing to remind
the world that Jack Prescott

was ever here.

And, god, I don't want
that to happen to me.

I don't want that
to happen to me.

[Dog barking]

Good afternoon,
Sven.

Ah, Charles,
you're early.

I heard about Jack.

It's hard to believe.

Yeah,
it sure is.

Let me show you
something.

Hey, you sold
my table already!

I sold it
for $12.50.

$12.50?

You can't imagine
the stir this
piece caused.

Well,
that's wonderful.

Maybe I'll start
another one when
I get back home.

I was hoping you'd
say 10 others.

10? Come on, Sven.
You know how long
it took me just

to make this one.

But you only
worked on it
part-time.

Do you remember
the offer
I made you?

Sure.

Charles,
there's a fortune
to be made here

for you and for me.

The Ingalls name
could become famous.

I figured it out.

There's that
large storage
room out back.

It would make
a perfect workshop.

Of course,
you would have to
move here, but...

Move here?

Of course.
How else
could it work?

I provide the means,
you provide
the talent.

And it's a nice
town with
good schools.

Well, what
do you say?

Are we
in business?

I don't know, Sven.
It's a big decision
to make.

I have to think on it
a while and talk it
over with my family.

Of course. Talk
to the family,

but I would like
to start soon.

Well, let's get
my wagon unloaded.
I'll be on my way.

Mark my word,
Charles.

The name of Ingalls
on a fine piece
of furniture

will mean something
for years to come.

I'll think about it.

I know it won't be easy
for everyone having to
move to Minneapolis, but...

It's a once-in-a-lifetime
chance.

I just can't pass it up.

Charles,
I can't believe
you're serious.

You're ready
to give up the farm

and everything
we've worked for?

Yes, I am.

But you're a farmer.

You've always
been satisfied
with that.

Well, I'm not anymore.

I mean, suppose something
happened to me.

What would become
of this place?

Well, Albert's
near grown.
He'd help out.

Oh, Caroline, Albert
wants to be a doctor.
That's his dream.

I can't ask him
to give that up.

Besides, with
all the money
I'd be making,

we could
send him to
a better school.

It's Jack,
isn't it?

That's what all
this is about.

You really are
afraid of ending
the way he did.

I guess that's
part of the reason.

It's all of
it, Charles.

Jack Prescott
was a fine man,

but he's
no Charles Ingalls.

If he were,
his children
couldn't have

turned out
the way
they did.

If it's a legacy
you're after, Charles,

you can't do better
than our children.

Caroline, I don't know
why I feel so strongly

about this, but I do.

And even if my reasons
are wrong, I have to try.

Charles, I'm scared.

Oh, now, don't be.

Look, I'll go
to Minneapolis
alone for 3 months.

That way, I'll know
whether or not this thing
is going to work out.

3 months?

With the money
I'm making,

we can get
a hired hand to do
the heavy work here.

Oh, Charles.

Caroline, what's
3 months in return
for a better life?

It's what you want?

It is.

Then do it.

"The demand
for the furniture
grows by the day.

"We've hired more
help, but the hours
are still very long.

"And even though
the days all seem
to run together,

it's worth it
when I think of how
successful we are."

"I can now send you
more money to help
run things there,

"but I can't wait
for the day when
we'll be together

"here in Minneapolis.

"My love to all. I miss
each of you dearly.

Love, pa."

Well...

It certainly sounds
as if things are
working out the way

pa thought
they would.

Yeah, but, still,
moving to Minneapolis...

Don't you
want to?

I don't know.

- Well, it's real big.
- I've been there.

I know we'll
miss all
our friends.

That's true.

But we've moved
before,

and we always
made new ones.

As long as we're together,

I don't care
where we move.

[Knock on door]

Oh, I'll get it.

Good afternoon,
young fellow.

I'd like to
talk to your ma.

Caroline:
I'm Mrs. Ingalls.

Oh, howdy, ma'am.

I read this
notice in town

about you needing
some farm help.

- Oh?
- Hmm.

Oh, am I too late?

Uh...

Well, no,
not exactly...

Mister...

Cooper. Uriah Cooper.

That's our
last name, too.

Hey, is that so?

Well, could be
we're related.

I don't think so.

Caroline:
To be perfectly
frank, Mr. Cooper,

you don't seem like
the farming type.

Oh, well, don't let
these traveling duds

fool you, Mrs. Ingalls.

Oh, I've spent my
share of time behind
a plow and harrow.

Well...

You are the first
person I've seen.

Yeah, and probably
the last.

I mean, with the wages
that you're
offering to pay.

All right,
Mr. Cooper.

Caroline:
We'll give it a try.

Now, the upper field
needs plowing,

and the side of
the barn needs
repairing.

Yeah, well, the...

Well, the day's
near burned out,

so I'll start
with the barn.

Fine.

Albert, please show
Mr. Cooper where
the tools are.

Albert:
Yes, ma'am.

Yep, Emma's going
to be real happy.

I'm sure she will,
Mr. Hastings.

Never paid that much
for a single piece
of furniture before.

Worth it, though.

Giddyap!

Excuse me,
gentlemen.

I couldn't
help but admire
that table.

A fine piece
of workmanship.

Thank you. This
is the craftsman
responsible.

Oh, glad to
meet you, mister...

Ingalls.
Charles Ingalls.

I'm Sven Johanssen.

Addison Fisk.

Do you happen to have
another one of those
in your inventory?

Ah, don't I wish?

The waiting list
is getting longer
by the day.

Which reminds me,
I'd best get back
to work.

Pleasure to meet
you, Mr. Fisk.

Of course, we can
put you on the list,

but I couldn't
promise delivery
for several months.

Oh, that's too bad.

My wife's birthday
is in two weeks,

and she really
would be pleased.

Uh, may I ask how
much you're charging?

$12.50.

Mr. Fisk:
Hmm, very steep.

Well, supply and demand.

Of course.
I'll tell you what
I'll do, Mr. Johanssen.

I'll give you $12.50 now

and double it
on delivery,

if you'll put
me at the top
of your list.

Double?

Well, it's as much
as I can afford.

Oh, it's very
generous, to be sure.

Come. I'll make
out the order.

More pie, Mr. Cooper?

Oh, no, thank you.

3 pieces is just
about right.

How's that barn
wall coming, Mr. Cooper?

Well, I'd better be
turning in early.

Morning's going to
come awful fast.

About that
barn wall,
Mr. Cooper--

oh, I get these
terrible hunger pangs
around midnight.

Would it be all right?

Of course!

About the
barn wall...

Oh, sure, sure.
Sometime tomorrow.

Good night.

Never saw anyone
eat so much.

I was hoping that
pie would be enough
for tomorrow.

He sure is taking
his time with
that barn wall.

How's it look
to you, Albert?

Like pa's
going to have
to redo it.

Well...

Maybe he'll be
better at plowing.

Good night.

See you
tomorrow.

A long day.

It sure is.

Charles, you
look exhausted.

That can't
be helped.

Got to fill
these orders

while they're
still coming in.

You think
they'll stop?

You never can tell.

Owning one of these
tables has caught on.

But it could be
just a fad.

I don't believe
in taking a good
thing for granted.

Sven: Let me tell you
something, Charles.

You're wrong about these.

The design,
the workmanship--

they're too good
to go out of fashion.
I know.

I've been in this
business for a long
time, and I know.

We couldn't make enough
to satisfy the demand
if we live to be 100.

Wait a minute.
I don't intend to be
working that long.

Oh, well,
maybe I exaggerate.

But we are going to be
rich men. Count on it.

I only wish we had
more work space.

We could use more
men, but where
would we put them?

I've been thinking
about that.

What about
a night shift?

You mean work
around the clock?

Charles:
Sure. Why not?

Oh, you couldn't handle
a schedule like that.

Aw, come on, Sven.

I'm in here almost
all the time anyway.

Just put a cot over
there in the corner.

I'll grab sleep
whenever I can.

Well, you're in charge.

I'll post the jobs at
the hiring hall tomorrow.

Fine.

Good night.

Good night, Sven.

[Crickets chirping]

Albert.

Why aren't
you asleep?

I can't.

What's
the matter?

It's that Mr. Cooper.

What'd he
do now?

Well, he sure
can't seem to do
anything right.

I went by
the upper field
after school today,

and he hadn't
done anything.

Why should pa have to
work so hard to pay
somebody like that?

He eats enough
for 3 people.

It's not right.

I know,

but we do so
need the help.

I've already
talked to James
about that.

Between the two
of us, we can
handle things.

And do your chores

and do your homework?

It won't be easy,
but we'll manage.

All right, Albert.

With your pa away,
you're the man
of the house.

Now, you go check
on his work
tomorrow,

and if you still
feel the same way,

you tell him we're
letting him go.

Thanks, ma.

Thank you.

- Now get some sleep.
- OK.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Is this your idea
of an honest day's
work, Mr. Cooper?

What? Hmm.

Oh, hello there,
young fellow.

Well, I was just
giving the horse
a breather.

Uh, yeah, it's
starting to get
pretty hot.

Well, I just
checked on how
hot the horse is.

- Heh heh! Oh, you did, huh?
- Yes, I did.

And I don't think
we'll be needing
your help anymore.

- What's that?
You saying I'm fired?
- That's it.

Yeah, well...

We'll see what
your ma has to
say about that.

Don't bother.
She left it up to me.

- Good-bye, Mr. Cooper.
- Hey, hey, now, hold on.

Now, you owe me
a half a day's pay
for today.

For what, sleeping
under that tree?

We don't owe you
anything more for
that, Mr. Cooper.

Not even
squatter's rights.

Now, please,
get yourself off
this property.

Marvin.

So that's it, huh?

What do
you think?

I see why
they're selling.

Yep. Not bad.

Nice design,
but simple, too.

That's the important
thing.

What's
our capability?

Oh, 25, 30 a week
on a regular basis.

They'll be as good
as that, but they'll
sell real cheap.

That's just what
I wanted to hear.

Let's start
breaking it down.

OK.

Sven, we're out of
just about everything.
I made a list here.

If you could
pick these things
up for me...

Is there
something wrong?

I don't know.

It's strange.

Haven't had
a new order
all week.

Well, in a way, it's
kind of a blessing.
We were backed up.

That's what I
thought until these
started coming in.

What are they?

Order
cancellations.

I didn't think
much about
the first two.

People have
second thoughts
after all. But 5?

Yeah, I see
what you mean.

Do you suppose
you were right?

That interest
in that piece
of furniture

was just
a passing thing?

I don't know.
I hope not.

Either way, we must
take precautions.

The night shift
will have to
be dismissed,

at least for
the time being.

Is it all right
if I let the men
finish out the week?

All right.

Oh, and,
Charles...

The next piece
you finish...

Let's keep it
for display.

That didn't
seem necessary
in the past.

It is now.

Yeah, it can't hurt.
I'll go talk to the men.

Caroline, voice-over:
"Dear Charles, this
will have to be short

"or I'll be
late for work.

"I must be honest,
my love--I am not sorry

"you had to close down
the night shift.

"Working such long hours
had me terribly worried.

"Naturally, I hope
the business doesn't get
any worse--I'm sure not.

"By the way, the man
I just hired didn't work
out, so we replaced him.

"You just wouldn't
believe the difference.

"Everything is getting
done perfectly now.

"Have to rush. We all
miss you and love you.

Caroline."

Excuse me.

Oh, yes.
Can I help you?

Where'd you get
that table out
there on the porch?

- Why do you ask?
- There's no craftsman's Mark.

Well, now, that would
surely be a compliment
to the manufacturer.

Those tables
are mass-produced.

Mass-produced?

That's right.

What's that
table sell for?

$4.95. Interested
in purchasing one?

No, I'm not.

I'm interested in
finding out who
turns them out.

Oh, east furniture.

They're the biggest outfit
this side of Madison.

Where are they
located?

A few blocks down.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I'm looking
for the man
in charge.

If it's about a job,
I'm the man to talk to.

It's not about a job.
It's about a business
opportunity.

Office, over there.

Excuse me. I...

Well, well,
Mr. Ingalls.

I thought I might
be getting a little
visit from you.

Is this how you make
your living, stealing
another man's design?

Stealing.

That's a rather
serious charge.

Well, what
would you call it?

Get to the point, Ingalls.
What do you want, money?

Forget it. Not a dime.

Suppose I take
you to court.

Fine. Heh!

Who knows?
You might even win.

That is, after
all the appeals.

Might drag on for some
time, and court costs
are very expensive.

But if that's what you
want, I can afford it.

Can you?

Let's be philosophical
about this, Ingalls.

Times have changed.

We're in the industrial
age now.

A lot of money
to be made,

too much to
be concerned with
certain niceties.

Look, you've
had a good run. You've
made a little money.

Now it's my turn.

Business is business.

After all,
it's only a design.

Now, if you'll
excuse me, I'm busy.

It's not just a design!
It's my design!
It's got my Mark on it!

Not anymore!

Get him!

Throw him in the street!

[Sighs]

Machines.

They'll be
a scourge
on mankind.

Yeah...

Can't have progress
without them...

Even if it is at
the expense of folks
like you and me.

Drink?

Hmm? No, thanks.

At least now both
of us can relax
a little.

Skoal.

Skoal.

Ahh!

Especially you.

The way you've
been going...

Yeah, I didn't
realize how tired
I really was.

Well, maybe we'll
find another way
to get rich.

[Chuckling]

[Both laughing]

Oh, this hurts.

Oh.

Oh, Sven.

[Sighs]

Do you know
something, Sven?

What?

I'm glad it's over.

Hmm. You know...

It's a strange
thing.

What's that?

I am, too.

[Laughter]

When all of
a sudden, there's...

No time in your life
for anything but work,

how important
can it be?

Not very.

You know why
I started all this?
All this working?

Because I wanted
to be remembered.

My initials on
a piece of furniture.

I wanted strangers
to remember me.

I wasn't even giving
my own children

a chance to remember me.

Working the way I was, they
wouldn't even know me.

People are silly.

To the children.

To the children.

[Door opens]

Albert! James!
Don't forget to
wipe your feet!

[Door closes]

Well, the least
you could say is
"welcome home."

Charles! Oh!

Oh, I've missed you.

Oh, but
what happened?

Oh, things just
didn't work out
the way I planned.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be.
You were right.

The children are
my legacy. I don't
need anything else.

- And I missed you! Ohh!
- Ha ha ha!

Yeah, I looked around
the place. That hired
hand did a nice job.

"Hands," Charles,
not "hand."

You hired more
than one? That's
a little expensive.

Hmm, look at
our bank book.

Well, that's
practically every
cent I sent you.

James and Albert
took over.

James and Albert
did everything?

Everything.

My, those two.
Hey, where are they?

- Out in the carrot field.
- I'm going to say hi.

- Oh!
- I'll be right back.

Charles: Hey, you two!
You working hard?

- Hey, pa!
- Pa!

Charles: Ha ha!

Ha ha ha!
How you doing?

Terrific. How long
can you stay?

Well, as long as
I can be useful.

You mean
we're not going
to Minneapolis?

That's right.

We're not going to
Minneapolis. We're
staying right here.

Mind if I join you?

- Mind?
- Heck, no!

- Well, come on!
Let's get to work.
- OK.

[Gavel pounds]

Going once,
going twice,

and sold to
the lady from
clear lake

for $125.

Do you know
who that Mark
belonged to?

No. We get
a similar piece

in with that Mark
from time to time,

but we can't seem
to trace it down.

Well, whoever he was,
he was a man who took
great pride in his work.

Can't argue
with you there.

- We'll load it for you.
- Thanks.

I sure wish we
knew who made it.

Man: Maybe we
will someday.

Maybe we will someday.
