♪♪

Well, here we are.

Welcome to the Ponderosa.

Oh, it's beautiful,
Mr. Cartwright.

Has the feel
of a fine clipper ship.

Out here all alone in the sea
of green and brown.

Father sees the briny
in everything

he looks at, Mr. Cartwright.

Well, he has saltwater
in his veins, Laura.

Well, come on in, folks.

Here, let me take that, Laura.

Fine quarters, Benjamin.
A man's house.

Well, we find it very
comfortable.

The boys and I are
very happy here.

Laura, why don't you sit down?

Where are the lads?

They should be finishing
their chores pretty soon.

I believe my daughter's anxious

to see the one
she made mud pies with.

Oh, Father...

Well, Laura, I guess, uh,
Joseph is no longer

that freckled-faced boy
that you remember.

He's grown up just like you.

Oh, I'm sure he has,
Mr. Cartwright.

Matthew, how about a sherry?

I thank you.
Laura?

No, thank you.

Hey, how long, uh, how long
leave of absence are you taking

from the sea, Matthew?

Indefinite.
Indefinite?

You taking an indefinite
leave of absence

from the sea?

You know that doesn't sound
quite like you.

I owe some time to my daughter.

We've been separated so much,

he thought he'd finally like
to know his daughter.

Her mother died
while I was at sea. Oh.

We've been at a bit of a loss,
Laura and I.

Well, then I'm doubly glad
you've come to the Ponderosa.

It's what Laura wanted.

Captain White, Laura!

I didn't expect you here
until tomorrow.

Well, the stagecoach
picked up fair winds

between St. Louis
and Virginia City. Wonderful.

Good thing I was in town for
the cattle auction, wasn't it?

And Laura.

It just doesn't seem possible.

The last time I saw you
in New Orleans,

you were about so tall.

Well, you weren't
much taller, Joe.

Yeah, I guess 12 years does make
a big difference.

It certainly has on you.
You're pretty as a picture.

I don't make mud pies
anymore, either.

Yeah, well, I don't eat them
anymore, either.

You remember this, Joe?

Did you keep this thing?

Yes, all these years.

You picked it for me in
our garden

the day you left New Orleans.

That's right, I remember.

It was to remember me by.

Look, I wish I had known you
were coming earlier, Captain.

I-I hate to run out on you
like this,

but I have an important
engagement.

But I'll see you
tomorrow morning.

Laura, it's real nice
to see you again.

Pa, don't worry.
I'll be home early.

Young people these days seem
to be so busy all the time.

He really
didn't expect you today.

You must excuse him.

Of course.

Well, that finishes it
for today.

I guess we can start breaking

that bunch of wild horses
next week.

Yeah, I can't wait
to tangle that old bay.

I'm gonna ride
that son of a gun this time

if I have to hogtie him
and hobble him.

Why don't you just try sitting
on him?

Oh, you're funny.

Dad-gone, I sure don't like
the feel of that wind.

It's too early in the year
for a storm.

Maybe not. It's blowing hard
out of the northeast.

I've seen it cloud up and storm
this early before.

I don't know.
My bunion's been hurting me

ever since the day before
yesterday.

Ah, your bunion hurt you on
a hot day in July.

Yeah, there's a difference,
though, Adam.

It's like a toothache
and a headache,

they both ache in the same
place, but there's a difference.

0h?

I figure
it will be raining before...

the day after tomorrow.

If you two soothsayers
are right,

we're not gonna be breaking
horses next week,

we're gonna be trying
to keep the house afloat.

Hey, Joe, I can't understand why
you want to prowl around

like a Lobo wolf every night
when you've got

a pretty little gal like that
right here in your backyard.

Ain't she a cute little gal?

Just like one of them snow
rowers-- what do you call them?

Edelweiss.

Don't you think so, Joe?

Don't I think what?

Laura is a pretty girl.

Yeah, sure she is.
Why do you ask?

Just an observation.

You two fellows go right on
observing.

I've got some work
to do on the wagon.

Sure.

Hi. Did you have
a good night's sleep?

Yes, thank you.

I'd, uh, I'd like to apologize
again for last night.

I had that date
and I had to keep it.

Oh, it's perfectly all right.

I---

I didn't think
I'd ever see you again

after all these years, Joe.

What brought you and your father
clear out here, anyway?

He's not
giving up the sea, is he?

Oh, he couldn't give up the sea,
it's his life.

If you give up the things
you live for,

then you might
as well be dead.

Father and I've traveled all
over the world together.

We've even been to Africa.

You've done a lot of traveling

since we were kids
in New Orleans.

I know.
It's hard to believe

that so much time has passed
since then.

Yeah... it sure is.

You know, you're so different
from the little girl

I knew back home.

We go on thinking that,
that nothing changes.

I'm... so terribly sorry that
things have to... change.

Laura!

Laura, what is it?
What's wrong?

Oh, it's, it's
a little dizziness.

I-I, it'll go away very quickly.
I'm all right.

I shouldn't have run so fast.

I'll help you to the house.

Laura, what is it?

Oh, I'm all right,
Mr. Cartwright; it's nothing.

I just felt a little weak.

Here, why don't you sit down?
Thank you.

Let her be, Ben.
I'll take her upstairs.

Matthew, I think she...

I know what's best
for my own daughter.

I'm perfectly all right, Father.

You'll come up
and lie down for a bit.

I wonder what's wrong
with her, Pa?

Well, Matthew said she hadn't
been feeling too well, lately.

A very delicate girl.

Very much
like her mother in that way.

She was like...
fine glass, her mother.

I sure hope the Ponderosa
weather makes her feel better.

Well, I'm sure it will.

Laura, you must be
feeling better,

you certainly did justice
to your supper.

I feel wonderful,
Mr. Cartwright,

and the supper was delicious.
Good!

It sure was. I think I'm gonna
go back there

and get another one
of those legs.

Another leg, that wasn't
a chicken, that was a deer.

I think I can handle that,
too, Adam.

Hoss uses a chicken leg
to pick his teeth with.

Matthew, I suppose you haven't
had venison for some time.

Aye, the meat's good.

You know, we, we don't have

any sharks around here,

but we do run into wolves
and a horse-killing panther.

How'd you like to go hunting
with us tomorrow?

Why not, Captain?

Be glad to pick out a gun
for you.

You might even get a bear.

No, I think not, Adam.

The sea's my hunting place.

The land tricks my legs
and my eye.

I think Laura and I will just
stay around the house.

Why don't you go
with Adam, Father?

Maybe I can talk Joe into taking
me for a ride up to the lake.

We've had a long hard trip.
You need your rest.

Oh, please, Father,
I'm much too excited to rest.

You'll do as I say.

I'm not a child, Father.

I know what's best for you.

Please excuse me.

I would have taken you anywhere,
Australia, the South Seas,

but you insisted on coming here.

Well, I thought
you wanted to come here, too.

Aye, because I thought it would
please you, make you happy.

Why did you suddenly care
so much about making me happy?

After all those years
you left me with Aunt Bronwen

and went away to sea?

I had a ship to command,
a job to do.

Child, you can't hold on
to the past.

You were children then,
now you're a woman.

A fine decent woman.

Father, you said I was a woman--
then don't shelter me anymore.

Let me be a woman.

I'm glad I can finally
see the lake, Joe.

I wish your father
felt the same way.

Oh, you mean you'd like
it better if he were here, too?

No, that isn't exactly
what I mean.

Here we go.

The Ponderosa borders along
the lake, down there below us.

And as far as the eye
can see to the east...

and all the way to the west,
to the mountains.

You're proud of
your land, aren't you?

The Ponderosa's
a lot more than just land,

it's, well it's kind of like
a piece of this Earth.

And we work it
and sweat over it.

Sometimes we have
to fight for it.

I guess we leave part of
ourselves in it.

What does it give you in return?

Oh, I don't know,
I guess... I guess it gives

the same thing it gives
the pines-- life.

It's beautiful, Joe.

It's the most beautiful country
I've ever seen.

And you're
the most beautiful girl.

Now you're making fun of me.

No.

I'm not making fun.

There's something
I'd like to show you.

It's kind of a special place.

Come on.

Looks like we're in
for some bad weather.

Remember how we used to walk
along the river bank,

and collect rocks and tadpoles?

Sure.

Hey, remember how I used to,

used to take those flat stones

and try to skim 'em
across the water?

Gee, I was a skinny kid,
wasn't I?

Oh, I didn't think so.

You see that cabin over there?

That's going to be mine someday.

I'm going to fix it up.

Oh, there's a view
of the countryside

from the other side
of that cabin...

You should be very happy here.

Mm.

You know, the first time
I saw this place,

I knew it was going to be mine.

Do you ever have
a feeling like that?

I mean, you see something,

and right away,
you know it has to be yours.

Yes.

What's that flower?

I don't know exactly.

People around here
call it the snow star.

It looks so alone and delicate.

Yeah, it's the first one
I've seen up here this year.

Must have bloomed
before its time.

I'll get it for you.

Be careful, Joe.

Oh, don't worry about me.

There's nothing
to this...

to... to... to...!

It's a good thing I'm graceful.

Whoo!

There.

That'll make a star
for your hair.

The horse!

That lightning
must have spooked him.

Uh-oh, here comes the rain.

Let's get in the cabin.

Hey, are you all right?

Oh, I'm just out of breath;
I'll be all right in a minute.

Yeah, we better
get those wet clothes off you.

Come on inside.

The storm began so suddenly.

Whew!

It's too far
to walk back in the rain.

We're just going to have
to sit and wait it out here.

I'll get a fire started;
you'll be dry in no time.

Who lived here, Joe?

Oh, a fellow from Kentucky.

Pa gave him this property
and he built this cabin on it.

What happened to him?

Oh, he just disappeared.

Well, didn't anyone ever find
out what happened to him?

Well, not exactly.

Pa says he built this cabin
for his wife.

She was supposed to come
out here from Kentucky

on a wagon train.

The train was raided by Indians
and she was killed.

I was just
a little kid at the time,

but I remember him.

He was a big gentle man.

Knew everything
about the woods around here.

They say one night he heard his
wife's voice calling to him,

and he went out and followed it.

They never saw him again.

I guess people like to make up
ghost stories.

Is that why no one's
ever lived here?

Yeah... yeah, they say
the place is haunted.

There.

Hey, we better get you
out of those wet clothes,

before you catch cold.

But, um...

Oh, yeah, you...

need something
to, uh, put around you.

Hey, here we are.

It's got a few moth holes in it,

but it's better
than catching pneumonia.

Uh... would you
turn your back, please?

Hmm?

Turn your back?

Oh, sure.

Where are they, Ben?

I know Laura is with your boy;
I saw them leave together.

Well, I'd say they've taken
shelter somewhere, Matt.

Where can you take shelter
in that howling wilderness?

Probably up at
the Kennedy ranch.

They were headed up that way.

I want a horse, Ben.

Matt, Adam and Hoss are
out there now, looking for them.

Are you going to get me that
horse, or do I get it myself?

You can have any horse
on the Ponderosa,

if it will do you any good.

I've faced gales that'd tear
the skin off your face.

I'm not going to sit here
like a frightened cabin boy.

I've faced them too, Matthew.

We'll go out,
only if I think we should.

If I hadn't
have brought her here,

this wouldn't have happened.

It's your boy's doing.

He's not the right kind for her.

Now, that's not fair, Matt.

Fair or no,

if anything's happened
to Laura,

he'll answer to me for it.

You don't know
what you're saying.

Now, will you please calm down
and try to be reasonable.

Reasonable?!

Do you think I don't know what
kind of boy that is?

I've seen his type before.

On every ship and in every port
I've sailed into.

Now wait a minute!

My son may be young,
and he may be foolish,

but he's honest
and he's honorable.

I'd trust him with my life,
and so could you.

Almost dry.

I wish it'd never dry.

It's been a wonderful day, Joe.

A wonderful day?

First I fell in the pool,
then the horse ran away,

now we're caught in the storm,

and you think
it's a wonderful day.

Oh, you know what I mean.

Just...

being with you.

If I could stop this day
from ending, I would.

Well, I guess there isn't any
way to stop a day from ending.

Well, we could pretend.

Like we used to.

Oh, that's when we were kids.

It's no good
to pretend anymore.

I wish we could
bring those days back.

You know, when I first
saw you on the Ponderosa, I...

I kind of thought of you
as you were,

when you were a little girl,
back in New Orleans.

But you're not like that.

You're not like that at all.

Let's finish up our coffee.

Better get
the horses saddled up.

Pa, they're back.

Father!

Have you lost
your senses, Matthew?

Calm down!

Joe!

Joe...

Hi.

I came as soon as I heard
you weren't feeling well.

It's silly;
I feel sort of shaky.

You know, it's all my fault
for getting us stuck up there.

I wouldn't have missed it
for anything in the world.

The flower... in my hair.

It's gone.

Don't you worry about that.

I'll pick you
a whole field of flowers.

You just get well.

Look, I have to go now.

Don't leave me, Joe.

I'll be back.

I want you to rest.

Think about a warm fire and...

and the sun on the river bank.

I'll see you later.

I love him, Father.

You don't know what love is,
nor does that boy.

Do you?

Do you know what love is?

Aye, it's...

...it's a strong thing.

It's caring so much you stop
thinking about yourself.

How is she?

Oh, she's all right, I guess.

I still think
we ought to have a doctor.

Well, Matthew says the doctors
in New Orleans say

that there's nothing wrong with
her that time won't heal.

What does
he have against me, Pa?

Why, I don't think he has

anything against you,
particularly.

He's her father.

She's been ill and, well,
what happened this morning,

he's worried about her.

Then why didn't he let me
explain what happened?

Why... why wasn't he happy
to see that she was safe,

instead of just--
He was upset, Joe.

He didn't know
what he was doing.

He loves her very much.

I love her, too, Pa.

Joe, uh...

are you sure
that what you and she feel

isn't just a sort of

sentimental attraction
for each other?

No.

No, that's... that's what
I thought it was at first,

but now I just want
to be with her.

Well, from what I can see,

she certainly wants
to be with you.

We want each other very much.

Well, no one could ask
for anything more.

To be wanted is possibly

the most important thing
in the world.

We're going to get married.

Well, I don't think that's

the biggest surprise
I've ever had.

I just hope her father
will understand.

Oh, I'm sure he will, Joseph.

He's a stubborn man,
but I know that in his heart,

his greatest concern
is for her happiness.

Be patient with him.

Try to understand him

the way you want him
to understand you.

All right, I'll try.

I just hope that he does.

I think Matthew and I
ought to have a little talk.

Maybe I can soften him up
for you.

That isn't interfering, is it?

Thanks, Pa.

Think Laura and I can use
all the help we can get.

Joe, what do you want
to come up here for?

This place gives me the willies.

Oh, it won't
when I get through with it.

What you figuring on doing?

Hey, Joe.

Any time you get
that look in your eye,

I always get in trouble.

What you planning on doing?

Hoss, you're right.

I don't want to get you
into any trouble.

You better go back
with the strays.

I'll take care of this myself.

Take care of what yourself?

No, I-I don't want to get you
into any trouble.

It's the first time you didn't
want to get me in trouble.

Besides, I kind of like trouble.

What you planning on doing?

You promise not
to tell anybody else?

Cross my heart.

No, I-I don't want
to get you in trouble.

Dadgum you, Joe!

You gonna tell me
what you're figuring on,

or am I gonna have to bash you?

All right, now, I don't want
anybody to know about it.

You promise?

You got my word.

I want to fix
that cabin up like new.

What for?

For Laura and I to live in
after we get married.

Ah.

You're just joking me,
ain't you, Joe?

Soon as she gets well.

That's why I want that cabin
to be a surprise.

Look, I need your help, brother.
Do I have it?

Have it? Why, you dadgum
little critter, you.

I-I'm your brother.

Sure, you got...

Joe, you ain't
kidding me, are you?

No, I ain't joking you.

Dadgum it!

I'm here to tell you
this is the best thing

that's ever happened,
and you just shut up.

♪ Here comes the bride ♪
Hey!

♪ Here comes the bride ♪

♪ All dressed in white. ♪

Whoo-hoo!

Feeling better?

Oh, much better,
thank you, Mr. Cartwright.

Good.

Uh, Hop Sing has some bread
baking in the oven,

and he has to keep an eye on it,

so I said I'd bring this
up to you.

I hope you like beef pie.

It's one of my favorites.

Good.

Well, good food
and plenty of rest,

you'll be up and around
in no time.

I'm very grateful for
your kindness, Mr. Cartwright.

Kindness?

What, to the girl
who's going to be

my very first daughter-in-law?

Isn't it wonderful?

I'm so happy,
I can hardly keep from cry.

Well, with this kind
of happiness,

the color will be flooding back
into this very lovely face to...

to illuminate all our lives.

Except my father's.

Mr. Cartwright,

I don't know how to explain
to him about Joe and myself.

I don't think he'd understand.

Well, Laura, it isn't always
easy for fathers to understand.

Ask my boys.

I'm sure they find me
pretty difficult at times.

He's lived his own life.

Why can't he let me live mine?

I know your father wants
only what's best for you, dear.

He'll come around.

Thank you, sir.

You drink up
every drop of that milk.

Yes, sir.

Now, what do you think?

You think she'll like it?

Like it?
Of course she'll like it.

Ain't going to be but a couple
of weeks till spring,

that little old tree
is going to be full of blossoms.

It will be the prettiest spot
in the whole country.

Hey, Y-you know,
I was thinking about something.

M-Maybe we ought
to add on an extra room.

You know,
just kind of a small one.

Well, what do you want
another room for?

Now, I thought you two

were supposed to be out
looking for strays.

Now, there are no strays
around here.

Why, we was just...

Tell him, Joe.

Well-well, you see, Adam, uh...

Well, it seems to me, if you
want Laura to like her new home,

that you ought to build a porch
out for a couple of feet, maybe.

And then put some shutters
on the windows, huh?

Now, how did you know?

Well, I'm the architect
in the family, remember?

Now, if you want an extra room,

I think this is what
you ought to do.

♪♪

Well, there's just
one more thing.

Uh, What is it?

Oh.

Hey, it's a cradle.

Tell me again, Joe.

Say it again.

I love you.

I love you more
than anything else in the world.

Joe.

There are so many things
I'd like to tell you,

but it's supposed
to be a surprise, but...

in just a week,
that old cabin...

it's going to be our home.

Oh, please tell me, Joe.

Tell me everything.

I don't want to spoil it.

Oh, you won't spoil it.

Tell me what
it's going to be like.

All right,
I'll tell you some of it.

Well, in-in the front room,
by the fireplace,

there will be a rocker for you.

Of course,
there'll be a real big

stuffed chair for me there.

And when...
when it's raining, we can...

sit in front of the fire
and hear it patter on the roof.

Like we did before?

Just us?
Mmm.

Oh, and in the kitchen,

Adam-Adam's got a pump fixed up
right there in the house

so you'll always
have water for you.

Then, in one corner over...
over by the fireplace,

where it's real warm,
we're going to...

we're going to put the...

A crib?

How did you know?

Where else would you
put a crib, silly?

We'll have lots of children.

There will be Cartwrights on
the Ponderosa for generations.

Ours.

I love you.

Joe...

have you talked
to my father yet?

No, I'm going to talk to him
tomorrow morning.

Make him understand
how it is with us.

I will.

And don't you worry.

Tomorrow, I'll go into town
and get the preacher.

By tomorrow night, you'll be
Mrs. Joseph Cartwright.

Oh, Joe.

Darling, I love you so much.

Matthew,
I'd like to talk to you.

Yes?

Well, what I want to say

involves your daughter
and my son.

I'll not be discussing them.

What are you
trying to do to Laura?

Save her from the world

or keep her locked up
in a cage? What?

Are you trying to tell me
what to do with my own daughter?

Don't you realize
they want to get married?

There will be
no marriage between them.

Now, Matt...

they're-they're not
children anymore.

Laura is a woman,
and Joseph is a man.

There's a stage leaving tomorrow
from Virginia City.

Laura and I will be on it.

You listen to me.

Now, those children are entitled
to their happiness.

Leave me be, Ben.

I know what's best
for my daughter.

What are you being
so stubborn about?

I know what's best
for my daughter, I tell you.

You have three sons--
three strong sons.

What can you know
about a daughter?

A sweet, soft, beautiful girl...

...who's going to die.

What are you saying, Matthew?

It's the truth
I've been living with

every waking and sleeping hour.

I couldn't bring myself
to tell her.

The doctor said
she had a year to live.

A year for me
to make her happy in.

She knows nothing of this?

Nothing.

Ben, I could ride out
the fiercest gale.

I could beat down the scurviest,
most mutinous crew.

I-I could handle anything
ever thrown at a man

by nature or circumstance,
but how can I tell my child--

My only child-- that her hope,

her life is at an end?

That's why I couldn't encourage
a marriage to your boy.

It would have had
nothing to grow on.

It would have destroyed him.

Matthew...

...they must know.

Both of them.

It can't be true.

They said I was going
to get well.

You're lying to me, Father.

By the Eternal, I'd give my life
to make it a lie.

I didn't want you
to be hurt, child.

Don't you see?

Tomorrow?

Tomorrow was
to be my wedding day.

Go away.
Please leave me alone.

Please leave me alone...

Pa, it can't be true..

She can't be dying.

I had to come and see it.

What's the idea,

Well, I wanted

We could have seen it together.

I couldn't wait.

We have to crowd everything

Look, Joe.

The rains made the valley

This is our place.

Our very own.

It's not every day
a girl gets married.

No, I don't want to leave here,
please, Joe.

Laura, I love you so much.

I feel fine now.

Darling...

like that,
like that little white flower

floating on the water.

So light and delicate.

You found me in that pool...

and you made me
a part of your life.

Always.

Always?

Always a part of my life.

Joe...

Joe...

Oh, Laura!

Matthew's gone.

He, uh, understood why you
weren't there to see him off.

Asked me to say good-bye
to you for him...

and to please forgive him.

Boy, Adam really did a job
on this cradle, you know?

Joe...

someone said something
to me a long time ago...

when Adam's mother died.

Her father, he said,

"Don't brood, son.

"Keep a warm spot in
your heart for her,

"but don't carry her
on your shoulders

"for the rest of your life.

She wouldn't want that."

I'll wait for you outside.

It's a fine spring, son.

I don't think I've ever seen
a prettier one.
