0:00:55.266,0:00:57.668
Man: No, no.[br]They don't want that.

0:00:55.733,0:00:57.701
Lay it over there.

0:00:59.533,0:01:01.468
[Ringing Softly]

0:01:08.833,0:01:10.768
First, l'm going[br]to cut out this border.

0:01:16.433,0:01:18.368
[Strains]

0:01:26.666,0:01:28.434
Percy: H-Helen?

0:01:28.500,0:01:30.869
H-Helen!

0:01:30.933,0:01:32.501
Stop!

0:01:32.566,0:01:34.634
Percy: Helen!

0:01:35.799,0:01:37.401
Martha:[br]Stop it, Helen.

0:01:38.833,0:01:42.937
Why she stick her fingers[br]in my mouth?

0:01:43.000,0:01:44.468
Because she mad at you[br]talking all day

0:01:44.533,0:01:45.500
when she can't hear[br]nothing.

0:01:45.566,0:01:46.500
[Moans]

0:01:46.566,0:01:47.633
Percy:[br]If she can't hear,

0:01:47.700,0:01:49.635
then how she know talk[br]coming out of my mouth?

0:01:51.599,0:01:53.802
l think she trying[br]to talk.

0:01:53.866,0:01:55.000
Percy:[br]Now she gone crazy,

0:01:55.066,0:01:56.767
eating herself.

0:01:56.833,0:01:58.467
You stop that.

0:01:58.533,0:02:00.201
Helen, stop it.

0:02:00.266,0:02:01.967
Helen. Helen!

0:02:02.033,0:02:03.868
Martha: Stop it. Ohh!

0:02:03.933,0:02:05.401
Percy: Help! Help!

0:02:05.466,0:02:06.500
Helen's trying to kill us!

0:02:06.566,0:02:09.602
She trying to kill us again!

0:02:09.666,0:02:11.234
[Muffled Yelling]

0:02:13.800,0:02:14.800
Helen?

0:02:16.766,0:02:17.700
Helen.

0:02:17.766,0:02:19.667
Stop it, Helen.[br]Stop it.

0:02:19.733,0:02:20.900
Stop it.

0:02:20.966,0:02:22.534
OK, OK, give mother[br]the scissors.

0:02:22.599,0:02:24.501
Helen.

0:02:24.566,0:02:26.634
Helen, give mother[br]the scissors.

0:02:26.699,0:02:27.634
Helen.

0:02:30.666,0:02:31.933
OK.

0:02:32.000,0:02:32.934
OK.

0:02:37.666,0:02:39.200
There, now.

0:02:40.366,0:02:41.767
OK.

0:02:41.833,0:02:43.434
That's[br]my pretty girl, huh?

0:02:43.733,0:02:45.367
Well, Father,

0:02:45.433,0:02:47.368
James: l hope you got[br]your story ready.

0:02:47.433,0:02:48.600
What story is that?

0:02:48.666,0:02:49.600
The one you're going to tell

0:02:49.666,0:02:51.267
when the little savage[br]kills somebody.

0:02:51.333,0:02:52.667
James: ''Your honor,

0:02:52.733,0:02:55.402
l had no idea that[br]poor deaf and dumb child

0:02:55.466,0:02:56.900
could be so violent.''

0:02:56.966,0:03:00.602
Arthur: Your sister is[br]none of your concern, James.

0:03:00.666,0:03:02.667
Don't you have some occasion[br]you need to dress for?

0:03:02.733,0:03:05.302
Aunt Ev:[br]Why don't l ever meet

0:03:05.366,0:03:07.434
any of your young friends,James?

0:03:07.500,0:03:09.602
How can l invite people here?

0:03:09.666,0:03:11.067
Aunt Ev: But surely your friends

0:03:11.133,0:03:13.967
don't think that Helen[br]is any reflection on you.

0:03:14.033,0:03:16.635
Helen is the real head[br]of this house.

0:03:16.699,0:03:17.834
She's probably just pretending

0:03:17.900,0:03:19.701
she can't speak or hear

0:03:19.766,0:03:21.167
so she don't have[br]to answer to anyone.

0:03:21.233,0:03:24.202
Your jealousy of that[br]helpless child is intolerable.

0:03:26.033,0:03:26.967
Auntie.

0:03:32.000,0:03:32.934
[Bumps Table]

0:03:33.000,0:03:35.335
Oh, well, here we are.

0:03:35.400,0:03:37.168
Here's Father

0:03:37.233,0:03:38.801
and Aunt Ev.

0:03:38.866,0:03:40.734
Ha ha.

0:03:40.800,0:03:42.501
l saw James.

0:03:42.566,0:03:44.668
l hope the two of you[br]weren't quarreling again.

0:03:44.733,0:03:46.267
Arthur: No, no.

0:03:46.333,0:03:47.567
Aunt Ev: Oh, Katie,

0:03:47.633,0:03:49.468
we all love Helen,

0:03:49.533,0:03:52.235
but surely you must see[br]what an effect

0:03:52.300,0:03:54.735
she is having on your household.

0:03:54.800,0:03:56.268
Why, James and Arthur

0:03:56.333,0:03:58.401
can barely speak a civil word,

0:03:58.466,0:04:01.834
and all your time[br]is given over to the girl.

0:04:01.900,0:04:03.167
You hardly ever have time

0:04:03.233,0:04:04.667
for your new baby.

0:04:04.733,0:04:06.935
James is right.

0:04:07.000,0:04:08.701
Aunt Ev:[br]You and Arthur

0:04:08.766,0:04:10.934
must do something--[br]and soon.

0:04:11.000,0:04:12.935
What can we do, Evelyn?

0:04:13.000,0:04:14.768
The only thing left to do

0:04:14.833,0:04:17.035
is to take Helen[br]to an asylum,

0:04:17.100,0:04:18.534
and Kate would never[br]stand for it.

0:04:18.600,0:04:19.968
Well, have you tried--

0:04:20.033,0:04:21.901
We have taken her[br]to evey hospital in 2 states.

0:04:21.966,0:04:23.367
No one holds out[br]any hope.

0:04:23.433,0:04:25.434
Aunt Ev: what about[br]that Dr. Chisolm

0:04:25.500,0:04:26.467
up in Baltimore?

0:04:26.533,0:04:27.467
l read an article

0:04:27.533,0:04:29.768
in your vey own[br]newspaper, Arthur.

0:04:29.833,0:04:31.401
Aunt Ev: They say[br]he has cured

0:04:31.466,0:04:33.234
many cases of blindness

0:04:33.300,0:04:35.602
that other doctors[br]have given up on.

0:04:35.666,0:04:37.401
Now, why not write to him?

0:04:37.466,0:04:39.801
And have Kate's heart[br]broken again?

0:04:39.866,0:04:41.634
l'm prepared[br]for my heart to break

0:04:41.699,0:04:43.301
any number of times, Captain.

0:04:43.366,0:04:44.600
Aunt Ev: l'll write[br]to him myself

0:04:44.666,0:04:46.067
if you like, Katie.

0:04:46.133,0:04:47.734
There isn't going[br]to be any cure,

0:04:47.800,0:04:50.002
Arthur: and the sooner[br]we accept that fact,

0:04:50.066,0:04:52.234
the better off we'll all be.

0:04:52.300,0:04:54.702
l will never accept it, Captain.

0:04:54.766,0:04:56.367
Kate: l can't.

0:04:57.600,0:04:58.734
l'm going to the printers.

0:04:58.800,0:05:00.034
[Moans]

0:05:01.100,0:05:04.437
Now look. l can't turn[br]my back for a moment.

0:05:04.500,0:05:05.868
Aunt Ev: Arthur,[br]Helen knows a lot more

0:05:05.933,0:05:07.768
than you think about[br]what goes on in this house.

0:05:07.833,0:05:08.700
Nothing is solved

0:05:08.766,0:05:10.167
by running[br]all over the county

0:05:10.233,0:05:11.934
evey time[br]some quack doctor

0:05:12.000,0:05:13.401
Arthur: gets his name[br]in the papers.

0:05:13.466,0:05:14.567
Kate: Nothing is solved

0:05:14.633,0:05:16.301
by running[br]to the office, either.

0:05:16.366,0:05:17.300
Hmm.

0:05:17.366,0:05:19.234
Kate, darling,

0:05:19.300,0:05:20.901
what can anyone do?

0:05:20.966,0:05:22.167
The kindest thing[br]we could do

0:05:22.233,0:05:23.434
would be to find[br]a sanitarium

0:05:23.500,0:05:24.701
in a beautiful spot where[br]she could be taken care of.

0:05:24.766,0:05:27.835
No. No, never.

0:05:27.899,0:05:30.836
Oh! She tore off[br]my buttons.

0:05:32.266,0:05:33.500
Ohh!

0:05:35.266,0:05:37.234
Kate: It's eyes.

0:05:37.300,0:05:38.968
She wants the doll--

0:05:39.033,0:05:41.268
She wants the doll[br]to have eyes.

0:05:41.333,0:05:42.934
l'm sorry, Evelyn.

0:05:43.000,0:05:44.201
Arthur:Just tell me[br]what it'll cost

0:05:44.266,0:05:45.300
to have the buttons[br]replaced, and l'll--

0:05:45.366,0:05:46.900
Kate:[br]l know she does.

0:05:46.966,0:05:49.301
Oh, don't mind[br]about that.

0:05:49.366,0:05:50.934
What are[br]a couple of buttons

0:05:51.000,0:05:53.268
if it makes Helen happy?

0:05:53.333,0:05:55.234
l'll sew them on[br]if you like.

0:05:55.300,0:05:56.434
ls that what[br]you're trying to do?

0:05:56.500,0:05:57.534
Make Helen happy?

0:05:57.600,0:05:59.435
James: Nothing[br]makes her happy.

0:05:59.500,0:06:01.568
Everything you give her[br]only makes her worse.

0:06:01.633,0:06:02.900
Arthur: She can have[br]these little things

0:06:02.966,0:06:03.900
that make her happy.

0:06:05.033,0:06:05.967
Oh, Helen!

0:06:06.033,0:06:07.768
Aunt Ev:[br]The baby!

0:06:07.833,0:06:09.601
[Crying]

0:06:09.666,0:06:10.967
Helen...

0:06:11.033,0:06:13.101
Listen, you cannot[br]do things like that, OK?

0:06:13.166,0:06:15.101
James: Why? She can have[br]the little things

0:06:15.166,0:06:16.100
that make her happy.

0:06:16.166,0:06:18.401
lf you won't[br]send her away,

0:06:18.466,0:06:21.435
then we must find some[br]way of confining her.

0:06:21.500,0:06:23.568
What, you want to lock her[br]away in the attic

0:06:23.633,0:06:25.901
like some sort of mad woman?

0:06:25.966,0:06:27.567
She wants to talk.

0:06:27.633,0:06:28.567
[Dishes Clatter]

0:06:31.133,0:06:32.067
Unh!

0:06:32.133,0:06:34.068
Helen, come here.

0:06:37.066,0:06:38.133
lt's OK.

0:06:38.199,0:06:39.167
Aah!

0:06:39.233,0:06:40.567
lt's OK.[br]Look, l know.

0:06:40.633,0:06:42.401
All right.

0:06:42.466,0:06:44.434
l'll write[br]to Dr. Chisolm.

0:06:44.733,0:06:47.469
Dr. Anagnos: Dr. Chisolm[br]could do nothing for the girl

0:06:47.533,0:06:50.669
and referred them to[br]Dr. Alexander Graham Bell.

0:06:50.733,0:06:52.101
As the girl is young,

0:06:52.166,0:06:54.568
and the parents are not[br]willing to send her to us,

0:06:54.633,0:06:56.067
l have put you up

0:06:56.133,0:06:58.201
for the role[br]of governess.

0:06:59.500,0:07:01.835
[lrish Accent][br]Governess?

0:07:01.899,0:07:02.900
Or nursemaid.

0:07:04.533,0:07:07.235
We both knew you'd get[br]rid of me one of these days.

0:07:07.300,0:07:09.101
Dr. Anagnos: You've[br]accomplished so much here.

0:07:09.166,0:07:10.467
But when you first[br]came to us,

0:07:10.533,0:07:13.836
you couldn't even[br]spell your name.

0:07:13.899,0:07:15.635
Are your eyes[br]still so painful?

0:07:15.699,0:07:17.801
No. It's my ears, sir.

0:07:20.133,0:07:22.068
Tell me about the child.

0:07:22.133,0:07:23.801
ls she bright...

0:07:23.866,0:07:26.201
or dull?

0:07:26.266,0:07:27.567
[Sighs]

0:07:27.633,0:07:28.900
Can she be taught?

0:07:28.966,0:07:31.535
She's given to tantrums,[br]they say.

0:07:32.766,0:07:33.900
So am l.

0:07:33.966,0:07:35.500
Maybe you should warn[br]the Kellers about me.

0:07:35.566,0:07:37.434
l've told them nothing[br]of your histoy

0:07:37.500,0:07:41.303
except your qualifications[br]for the job.

0:07:41.366,0:07:43.968
Here is the money

0:07:44.033,0:07:46.168
for your train ticket.

0:07:51.066,0:07:54.002
And here is a gift[br]from all of us,

0:07:54.066,0:07:55.167
Dr. Anagnos:[br]with our love.

0:07:55.233,0:07:57.201
We're going to miss you.

0:08:01.266,0:08:02.934
Dr. Anagnos:[br]This is my last chance

0:08:03.000,0:08:04.434
to counsel you, Annie.

0:08:04.500,0:08:06.068
You lack tact

0:08:06.133,0:08:08.935
Dr. Anagnos: and the talent[br]to bend to others.

0:08:09.000,0:08:12.870
You're hard to fool[br]and harder to please,

0:08:12.933,0:08:16.469
but all the same,[br]we are proud of you.

0:08:30.666,0:08:32.567
We're off[br]to meet the train again.

0:08:32.633,0:08:34.634
Well, l hope[br]the girl is on this one.

0:08:34.698,0:08:36.769
Oh, she will be.

0:08:36.832,0:08:38.667
Well, we'll see you[br]at supper, then.

0:08:48.399,0:08:49.334
Giddy up.

0:09:05.966,0:09:08.401
Your mother's not here, child.

0:09:09.866,0:09:12.034
l'm here, though.

0:09:12.100,0:09:13.034
l'm your father.

0:09:14.200,0:09:15.668
l'm your father.

0:09:18.733,0:09:21.302
l used to swing you[br]through the air,

0:09:21.366,0:09:23.701
and you weren't even[br]2 years of age yet.

0:09:25.399,0:09:28.236
l wonder if you remember[br]any of that...

0:09:28.299,0:09:29.300
or any of us.

0:09:30.066,0:09:31.868
Here you are.

0:09:31.933,0:09:35.369
There's a piece[br]of candy for you.

0:09:52.766,0:09:53.733
Mm-hmm.

0:09:53.799,0:09:55.835
You want your mama,[br]don't you, missy?

0:09:55.899,0:09:57.935
Captain Keller, wouldn't[br]like this if he saw it,

0:09:58.000,0:10:00.502
but what's one little candy[br]going to hurt?

0:10:01.066,0:10:02.668
Watch your step, sir.

0:10:03.033,0:10:04.007
Ma'am.

0:10:17.666,0:10:20.268
l had a brother, Jimmie.

0:10:20.333,0:10:21.367
Are you Helen's...

0:10:21.433,0:10:22.600
Halfbrother.[br]Do you have a trunk?

0:10:22.666,0:10:23.600
Yes.

0:10:23.666,0:10:26.135
Henry, Percy.

0:10:26.200,0:10:27.467
Kate: Miss Sullivan.

0:10:27.533,0:10:29.334
l'm so relieved.[br]We were beginning

0:10:29.399,0:10:30.768
to get a little bit[br]worried about you.

0:10:30.833,0:10:31.867
The man who sold me[br]that ticket

0:10:31.933,0:10:33.334
ought to be tied[br]to the tracks.

0:10:33.400,0:10:35.902
l'm Katherine Keller.[br]l'm Helen's mother.

0:10:36.566,0:10:38.001
You didn't bring Helen.

0:10:38.066,0:10:40.000
l was hoping you would.

0:10:40.066,0:10:42.634
Well her father wanted to spend[br]the afternoon with her, actually.

0:10:43.000,0:10:45.435
Kate: They so enjoy[br]their time together.

0:10:45.500,0:10:47.702
Kate, you should be ashamed.

0:10:47.766,0:10:49.934
Miss Sullivan, you'll find[br]that in the south

0:10:50.000,0:10:51.201
James: we make up[br]these little stories

0:10:51.266,0:10:52.400
just to amuse each other.

0:10:52.466,0:10:53.967
l hope you won't mind.

0:10:54.033,0:10:55.401
[Bell Rings]

0:10:55.466,0:10:57.901
[Train Whistle Blows]

0:11:01.833,0:11:03.601
Kate: How much can a blind[br]and deaf child learn,

0:11:03.666,0:11:04.700
Miss Sullivan?

0:11:04.766,0:11:06.868
l don't know.

0:11:06.933,0:11:08.668
Does she communicate[br]with you at all?

0:11:08.733,0:11:10.401
Oh, well, l always know[br]what she wants

0:11:10.466,0:11:11.400
if that's what you mean.

0:11:13.133,0:11:14.567
No, you don't.

0:11:14.633,0:11:15.767
All anybody knows

0:11:15.833,0:11:17.367
that if you give Helen[br]a piece of candy,

0:11:17.433,0:11:19.802
she'll be quiet for a while.

0:11:21.933,0:11:24.101
Can you teach her[br]to sit still, Miss Sullivan?

0:11:24.166,0:11:25.567
l'd have to teach her[br]Ianguage first.

0:11:25.633,0:11:26.567
Language?

0:11:26.633,0:11:28.501
lf she doesn't know words,

0:11:28.566,0:11:30.935
how could she know why[br]you want her to sit still?

0:11:31.000,0:11:33.469
Miss Sullivan,[br]perhaps you were misled

0:11:33.533,0:11:34.634
as to Helen's condition.

0:11:34.699,0:11:36.735
She can neither[br]see nor hear.

0:11:36.800,0:11:38.735
But if it is her senses[br]that are impaired

0:11:38.800,0:11:40.168
and not her mind,

0:11:40.233,0:11:41.968
she must have language.

0:11:42.033,0:11:44.535
Language is more[br]important to the mind

0:11:44.599,0:11:45.901
than light is to the eye.

0:11:45.966,0:11:48.535
But how will you[br]teach her

0:11:48.599,0:11:50.001
if you can't talk to her?

0:11:50.066,0:11:51.700
Anyway l can.

0:11:51.766,0:11:53.134
Kate:[br]We are going to do

0:11:53.199,0:11:55.735
everything that we can[br]to help you.

0:11:55.800,0:11:56.767
l don't want you to think of us

0:11:56.833,0:11:58.367
as strangers, Miss Annie.

0:11:58.433,0:12:00.635
Annie: Strangers aren't[br]so strange to me.

0:12:00.699,0:12:04.170
l've been around them[br]all my life.

0:12:10.066,0:12:12.001
James:[br]Watch your step.

0:12:18.833,0:12:21.101
Welcome to Ivy Green,[br]Miss Sullivan.

0:12:21.166,0:12:23.101
l trust you had[br]a good journey.

0:12:23.166,0:12:24.667
Annie: l had several.[br]Thank you.

0:12:24.733,0:12:26.034
Where's Helen?

0:12:26.099,0:12:27.100
Oh, Miss Annie?

0:12:27.166,0:12:28.700
We've put you in[br]the upstairs corner room.

0:12:28.766,0:12:30.434
Now, if there is any breeze[br]at all this summer,

0:12:30.500,0:12:31.434
you're going to feel it.

0:12:31.500,0:12:32.601
l'll take my suitcase, thanks.

0:12:32.666,0:12:33.733
l have it, Miss Sullivan.

0:12:33.800,0:12:34.867
No, please, let me.

0:12:34.933,0:12:36.200
l wouldn't think of it.

0:12:36.266,0:12:39.736
l have something in it[br]for Helen.

0:12:41.300,0:12:44.870
l needn't to be treated[br]like a guest.

0:12:44.933,0:12:46.934
Now, when may l see Helen?

0:12:47.000,0:12:49.035
Well, there she is.

0:12:49.099,0:12:50.834
Kate:[br]That's Helen.

0:13:30.500,0:13:31.434
Unh!

0:13:34.566,0:13:35.500
[Slaps]

0:13:44.033,0:13:45.534
[Sniffs]

0:13:59.099,0:14:00.267
Unh.

0:14:01.533,0:14:02.467
Unh!

0:14:07.599,0:14:08.968
Unh!

0:14:18.033,0:14:20.402
She seems vey rough, Kate.

0:14:20.466,0:14:22.835
Why didn't she take[br]her glasses off?

0:14:22.900,0:14:23.900
Well, the institute said

0:14:23.966,0:14:25.634
that the light hurts her eyes.

0:14:25.699,0:14:28.436
Apparently, she was nearly[br]blind as a child.

0:14:28.500,0:14:29.500
Blind?

0:14:29.566,0:14:31.968
Well, she's had[br]9 operations on her eyes.

0:14:32.033,0:14:36.036
And they expect one blind[br]person to teach another one?

0:14:36.099,0:14:38.869
How long was she employed[br]at that school?

0:14:38.933,0:14:42.102
Well, she--she wasn't[br]employed there.

0:14:42.166,0:14:44.368
She was one[br]of their best students.

0:14:44.433,0:14:46.501
Student?

0:14:46.566,0:14:47.900
James: Now you have[br]2 blind girls

0:14:47.966,0:14:49.167
to take care of, Father.

0:14:49.233,0:14:51.969
You stay out of this.

0:14:54.033,0:14:55.467
James...

0:14:55.533,0:14:58.869
why do you have to be[br]so mean about Helen?

0:14:58.933,0:15:01.402
Why, to confirm my father's[br]view of me, of course.

0:15:07.833,0:15:09.000
Those are mine.

0:15:28.633,0:15:30.634
Yes, yes.

0:15:35.533,0:15:36.834
All right, then, Helen.

0:15:36.900,0:15:39.269
'' Doll'' will be[br]your first word.

0:15:39.333,0:15:41.234
lt's as good as any.

0:15:42.000,0:15:43.234
'' D...''

0:15:48.133,0:15:49.167
''O...''

0:15:50.533,0:15:51.634
'' L...''

0:15:55.566,0:15:56.600
'' L.''

0:15:56.666,0:15:57.833
Doll.

0:15:58.100,0:15:59.234
Doll.

0:16:00.000,0:16:01.067
lt has a name.

0:16:01.133,0:16:02.067
''D...''

0:16:04.266,0:16:05.200
''O...''

0:16:05.266,0:16:06.834
Annie: ''L...''

0:16:12.066,0:16:13.167
James:[br]Thank you, Henry.

0:16:13.233,0:16:14.701
Thank you, Percy.

0:16:16.799,0:16:18.034
So, what was that?

0:16:18.100,0:16:19.034
Some sort of game?

0:16:19.100,0:16:21.702
lt's an alphabet[br]for the deaf.

0:16:21.766,0:16:23.567
Each letter has a sign.

0:16:23.633,0:16:25.134
''D...''

0:16:25.199,0:16:26.467
''O...''

0:16:26.533,0:16:27.901
''L...''

0:16:27.966,0:16:29.367
''L.''

0:16:29.433,0:16:30.367
Doll.

0:16:32.466,0:16:35.302
First, she will learn[br]to imitate.

0:16:35.366,0:16:37.301
'' D,'' ''O...''

0:16:38.500,0:16:39.801
Ah!

0:16:39.866,0:16:41.500
James: Oh, she can imitate[br]things, all right--

0:16:41.566,0:16:43.100
like a regular little monkey.

0:16:43.166,0:16:45.101
A bright little monkey.

0:16:46.666,0:16:48.034
Mmm...

0:16:48.100,0:16:49.267
'' D.''

0:16:49.333,0:16:51.334
James: l think she wants[br]her doll back.

0:16:51.400,0:16:53.001
She can have it back[br]when she spells it.

0:16:53.066,0:16:55.568
She has no idea[br]what words even are.

0:16:55.633,0:16:56.600
How can she spell them?

0:16:56.666,0:16:58.567
lf her fingers learn[br]the letters now,

0:16:58.633,0:17:00.134
then maybe someday

0:17:00.199,0:17:01.968
her brain will learn[br]that they have a meaning.

0:17:02.033,0:17:03.834
Did you make up[br]this alphabet?

0:17:03.900,0:17:05.468
Me? No.

0:17:05.532,0:17:07.468
Spanish monks[br]under a vow of silence,

0:17:07.532,0:17:11.403
which, Mr.James,[br]l wish you would take.

0:17:12.465,0:17:14.401

0:18:08.999,0:18:10.968
''E.''

0:18:11.033,0:18:12.901
Annie: Very good.

0:18:12.966,0:18:14.000
Cake.

0:18:20.499,0:18:22.068
''D...''

0:18:22.133,0:18:23.567
''O...''

0:18:23.633,0:18:25.001
''L...''

0:18:25.066,0:18:26.167
''L.''

0:18:29.133,0:18:30.701
Uhh!

0:18:30.766,0:18:32.467
Mm-mm-mm.

0:18:32.533,0:18:34.568
Uhh!

0:18:34.633,0:18:35.900
[Sighs]

0:18:35.966,0:18:37.467
''D...''

0:18:37.533,0:18:38.767
''O...''

0:18:38.833,0:18:40.267
''L...''

0:18:41.699,0:18:43.268
''L.''

0:18:43.333,0:18:44.734
Vey good, Helen.

0:18:44.800,0:18:46.168
Vey good.

0:18:46.233,0:18:48.134
Good first lesson.

0:18:48.199,0:18:50.268
Very well done.[br]Very well done.

0:18:50.333,0:18:51.801
Ohh! Ohh!

0:19:06.666,0:19:08.501
[Tries Door]

0:19:08.566,0:19:09.600
Helen!

0:19:09.666,0:19:13.102
Annie: Let me out,[br]you wicked girl.

0:19:13.166,0:19:14.333
Helen!

0:19:14.400,0:19:15.567
Ohh!

0:19:23.066,0:19:24.000
Unh.

0:19:26.999,0:19:28.267
[Spits]

0:19:28.333,0:19:32.270
Ohh. And l wondered[br]if she was bright.

0:19:33.800,0:19:37.003
She's the brightest one[br]in this house.

0:19:39.366,0:19:41.601
Where is Miss Annie?

0:19:41.666,0:19:42.767
She's in her room.

0:19:42.833,0:19:44.968
Didn't anyone[br]call her to supper?

0:19:45.033,0:19:48.169
Arthur:James, go upstairs[br]and bring her down.

0:19:48.233,0:19:50.335
Certainly.[br]l'll get the ladder.

0:19:50.400,0:19:51.534
What?

0:19:51.600,0:19:53.702
l'll need a ladder.[br]It won't take long.

0:19:53.766,0:19:55.300
What are you talking about?

0:19:57.366,0:19:58.667
Well, Helen locked her[br]in her room

0:19:58.733,0:19:59.667
and run off with the key.

0:20:01.166,0:20:03.368
[Sighs]

0:20:03.433,0:20:04.867
And l suppose you are[br]going to sit there

0:20:04.873,0:20:05.934
and say nothing.

0:20:05.999,0:20:08.702
You told me it was[br]none of my business, Father.

0:20:08.766,0:20:11.735
l was just trying[br]to respect your wishes.

0:20:20.466,0:20:22.701
Miss Sullivan,[br]are you in there?

0:20:22.766,0:20:23.933
Yes, sir, l'm in here.

0:20:23.999,0:20:25.801
lsn't there a key[br]on your side?

0:20:27.433,0:20:29.268
[Whispering][br]For God's sake.

0:20:29.333,0:20:31.168
No, sir.[br]There's no key, sir.

0:20:37.666,0:20:39.100
Put that ladder away,Jimmy.

0:20:39.166,0:20:41.067
Whatever you say, Father.

0:20:42.600,0:20:44.768
Kate: Captain, we can't[br]keep Miss Annie locked up

0:20:44.833,0:20:45.934
until we find the key.

0:20:48.333,0:20:49.267
James.

0:20:50.666,0:20:52.567
Bring the ladder back.

0:20:54.133,0:20:55.767
Whatever you say, Father.

0:21:06.933,0:21:08.701
l hired her to solve problems,

0:21:08.766,0:21:10.200
not create them.

0:21:11.600,0:21:13.001
Arthur: Hold it, Jimmy.

0:21:13.066,0:21:14.700
Thank you, Percy.

0:21:19.999,0:21:20.934
Miss Sullivan!

0:21:23.033,0:21:23.967
Yes, Captain Keller?

0:21:24.033,0:21:25.801
l hope this is not a sample

0:21:25.866,0:21:27.434
of what we can expect of you.

0:21:27.499,0:21:30.836
Arthur: Come out[br]and sit on my shoulder.

0:21:42.400,0:21:44.101
l'm perfectly capable

0:21:44.166,0:21:45.300
of going down a ladder[br]by myself.

0:21:45.366,0:21:47.167
Do as l say, Miss Sullivan.

0:21:53.033,0:21:54.000
Ohh.

0:21:55.266,0:21:57.468
[Bystanders Laugh]

0:22:00.533,0:22:01.734
Very chivalrous of you.

0:22:01.800,0:22:04.502
This is not chivalry.[br]This is practicality.

0:22:04.566,0:22:08.970
You're no good to us[br]trapped in a room.

0:22:11.100,0:22:12.468
Woman: Ooh.

0:22:13.533,0:22:14.467
[Applause]

0:22:16.866,0:22:19.034
Not in the house 10 minutes.

0:22:19.100,0:22:21.435
Honestly, l don't see[br]how you managed it.

0:22:21.499,0:22:22.434
[Sighs]

0:22:22.499,0:22:23.734
l'll look for the key, sir.

0:22:23.800,0:22:25.401
Thank you. Just don't[br]look in any rooms

0:22:25.466,0:22:28.302
that can be locked.

0:22:28.366,0:22:30.868
All right, eveyone.[br]Excitement's over.

0:22:30.933,0:22:34.703
l'd better leave[br]the L-A-D-D-E-R.

0:22:34.766,0:22:36.701
[Laughs]

0:23:16.366,0:23:18.634
Oh, you little devil.

0:23:21.233,0:23:22.934
lf you think you can[br]get rid of me that easily,

0:23:22.999,0:23:24.201
you're wrong.

0:23:29.766,0:23:32.635
l have nothing better to do

0:23:32.699,0:23:34.635
and nowhere else to go.

0:23:34.999,0:23:36.534
Annie: To the best[br]of my knowledge,

0:23:36.600,0:23:38.401
no one in this house

0:23:38.466,0:23:41.702
has ever tried[br]to control the girl,

0:23:41.766,0:23:42.700
but...

0:23:43.833,0:23:45.634
how can l discipline her

0:23:45.699,0:23:48.436
without breaking her spirit?

0:23:48.499,0:23:49.434
But...

0:23:50.566,0:23:53.602
if she won't obey me...

0:23:53.666,0:23:55.567
Oh!

0:23:55.633,0:23:56.567
Ohh.

0:24:00.366,0:24:01.300
Tsk.

0:24:09.833,0:24:11.067
lnk.

0:24:11.133,0:24:12.534
lt has a name.

0:24:17.333,0:24:19.068
Pen.

0:24:19.133,0:24:20.067
Pen.

0:24:24.333,0:24:25.267
Uhh!

0:24:28.266,0:24:29.901
[Moans]

0:24:32.700,0:24:34.035
No, Helen.

0:24:46.666,0:24:47.667
[Gasps]

0:24:48.133,0:24:49.067
Annie: Ohh!

0:24:49.533,0:24:50.800
Bad...

0:24:51.066,0:24:52.167
Annie: girl.

0:24:52.333,0:24:54.368
Kate: No. Never you mind,[br]Miss Annie. It's--

0:24:54.433,0:24:56.001
lt's not the first.

0:24:56.066,0:24:57.500
No, Helen.

0:25:02.499,0:25:04.401
The Captain thinks that[br]your spelling eveything

0:25:04.466,0:25:05.466
that Helen does

0:25:05.533,0:25:08.569
is like spelling[br]to a fence post.

0:25:08.633,0:25:11.235
You talk to the baby, don't you?

0:25:11.300,0:25:13.135
Does she understand[br]what you mean?

0:25:13.199,0:25:15.235
Not yet,[br]but she will someday

0:25:15.300,0:25:17.168
if she hears enough words.

0:25:17.233,0:25:19.668
l'm letting Helen[br]hear the words.

0:25:23.333,0:25:25.301
Kate: How long will it take?

0:25:25.366,0:25:27.067
A million words, maybe.

0:25:27.133,0:25:28.467
Annie: Pen.

0:25:40.533,0:25:41.500
Did you see that?

0:25:42.066,0:25:43.467
Annie:[br]l spelled ''pen.''

0:25:43.533,0:25:46.102
She spelled ''cake.''

0:25:47.999,0:25:51.770
She wants to see if l can[br]tell the difference.

0:25:51.833,0:25:54.268
There's nothing impaired[br]in that head, Mrs. Keller.

0:25:54.333,0:25:57.369
Helen is smart...[br]and angry.

0:25:57.433,0:25:58.634
l can use that.

0:25:58.699,0:26:00.535
Can you teach me[br]those letters?

0:26:00.600,0:26:03.069
l'll start tomorrow.

0:26:03.133,0:26:04.601
lf both of us[br]are spelling to her,

0:26:04.666,0:26:06.401
that makes only about[br]half a million words each.

0:26:07.066,0:26:08.067
[Laughs]

0:26:08.133,0:26:09.133
Ow!

0:26:09.200,0:26:10.534
Helen!

0:26:10.600,0:26:12.034
Helen: Uhh!

0:26:13.199,0:26:14.134
Helen.

0:26:14.199,0:26:16.135
[Moaning]

0:26:20.033,0:26:21.735
[Stops Moaning]

0:26:21.800,0:26:25.102
Why does she get[br]a reward for stabbing me?

0:26:25.666,0:26:28.301
l--l don't know.

0:26:28.366,0:26:29.467
l'm--l'm sorry.

0:26:31.866,0:26:32.866
[Rooster Crows]

0:26:32.933,0:26:33.867
James: Miss Sullivan,

0:26:33.933,0:26:36.235
breakfast is ready.

0:26:36.300,0:26:38.101
Shall l get the ladder?

0:26:38.166,0:26:39.634
That's enough,Jimmy.

0:26:47.800,0:26:49.735
Oh, good morning,[br]Miss Annie.

0:26:49.800,0:26:51.535
Good morning.

0:26:51.600,0:26:52.667
Morning.

0:26:54.999,0:26:57.402
l hope you've settled in[br]comfortably, Miss Sullivan.

0:26:57.466,0:26:59.901
Thank you, Captain.[br]l have.

0:27:01.866,0:27:03.667
Arthur:[br]Please, help yourself.

0:27:03.733,0:27:06.802
Miss Annie, if there is ever[br]anything that you need,

0:27:06.866,0:27:07.833
please let us know.

0:27:18.499,0:27:20.802
Tobacco prices are up,[br]Father.

0:27:20.866,0:27:23.201
We should earn a nice profit[br]this year for a change.

0:27:25.999,0:27:27.201
Arthur: It used[br]to be that a man

0:27:27.266,0:27:29.001
could make a good living[br]running a farm.

0:27:29.066,0:27:31.001
James: Well, perhaps[br]if you'd leave

0:27:31.066,0:27:32.066
your pet newspaper

0:27:32.133,0:27:33.534
and come show me[br]my business,

0:27:33.600,0:27:35.368
we could make[br]some real money.

0:27:35.433,0:27:36.700
Arthur: Not in front[br]of Miss Sullivan.

0:27:36.766,0:27:38.367
Why not in front[br]of Miss Sullivan?

0:27:42.733,0:27:43.667
Kate: Miss Annie,

0:27:43.733,0:27:45.468
Helen is used[br]to helping herself

0:27:45.533,0:27:46.467
from our plates.

0:27:46.533,0:27:48.301
l'm afraid l'm not used to it.

0:27:48.366,0:27:50.000
Arthur: No, of course not.

0:27:50.066,0:27:52.067
Viney, please bring[br]Miss Sullivan another plate.

0:27:52.133,0:27:53.801
There's nothing wrong[br]with my plate, Captain,

0:27:53.866,0:27:55.701
only that Helen's hands[br]don't belong in it.

0:27:55.766,0:27:58.301
One plate is hardly worth[br]spoiling our breakfast over.

0:27:58.366,0:27:59.734
Kate: You see, she's just[br]going to keep trying

0:27:59.800,0:28:01.301
until she gets her way.

0:28:02.833,0:28:04.834
Arthur: l must insist[br]that you let the girl go.

0:28:07.166,0:28:08.433
Unh!

0:28:08.499,0:28:09.367
Arthur: Thank you.

0:28:09.433,0:28:10.367
Unh!

0:28:16.699,0:28:17.634
- [Kicks][br]- Oh!

0:28:19.466,0:28:20.767
[Moaning]

0:28:20.833,0:28:21.934
Oh, look, now[br]she's hurt herself.

0:28:21.999,0:28:24.168
No, she hasn't. l know[br]a tantrum when l see one

0:28:24.233,0:28:26.068
and a badly spoiled child.

0:28:26.133,0:28:27.467
Miss Sullivan.

0:28:30.066,0:28:31.233
Please, show some pity.

0:28:31.300,0:28:32.868
For this kind of behavior?

0:28:32.933,0:28:35.068
Annie: Pity's the one[br]thing she doesn't need.

0:28:35.133,0:28:37.335
The whole house waits[br]on her hand and foot.

0:28:37.400,0:28:39.335
- Hear, hear.[br]- You stay out of this.

0:28:39.400,0:28:40.934
Letting Helen[br]have her own way--

0:28:40.999,0:28:42.668
it's really[br]such a small thing.

0:28:42.733,0:28:45.102
Small? It's seems[br]you've all decided

0:28:45.166,0:28:46.700
it's easier[br]to feel sory for Helen

0:28:46.766,0:28:49.335
than to teach her[br]how to behave.

0:28:49.400,0:28:50.567
Well, l've not seen

0:28:50.633,0:28:52.401
that you've taught her[br]anything yet, Miss Sullivan.

0:28:52.466,0:28:54.634
Quite right, Captain.[br]Well observed.

0:28:54.699,0:28:58.203
l'll start right now[br]if you'll leave the room.

0:28:58.266,0:28:59.200
Leave the room?

0:28:59.266,0:29:00.200
Annie: Yes.

0:29:00.266,0:29:01.200
Please, Captain.

0:29:01.200,0:29:02.734
Right now, if you'll[br]leave the room.

0:29:02.800,0:29:04.068
Miss Sullivan--

0:29:04.133,0:29:06.134
lf you're not willing[br]to stand up to one tantrum,

0:29:06.200,0:29:07.668
l cannot teach her anything.

0:29:07.733,0:29:09.334
Unh!

0:29:09.399,0:29:10.467
Mrs. Keller,

0:29:10.533,0:29:11.934
you asked if there was[br]anything l needed.

0:29:12.000,0:29:13.501
Yes, but l--

0:29:13.566,0:29:15.601
l need to be alone[br]with Helen.

0:29:15.666,0:29:17.467
[Moaning]

0:29:17.533,0:29:18.467
Annie: Right now.

0:29:18.533,0:29:19.567
Miss Sullivan--

0:29:19.633,0:29:20.567
Kate: Captain.

0:29:24.966,0:29:26.934
Kate: James.

0:29:27.000,0:29:30.470
Captain, may l speak[br]with you outside?

0:29:45.133,0:29:46.634
Give us a moment, please.

0:29:46.700,0:29:47.634
Oh...

0:29:49.066,0:29:51.001
[Helen Continues Moaning]

0:29:59.533,0:30:01.001
This is absurd.

0:30:01.066,0:30:04.002
Arthur, l'm sure[br]that she is only trying

0:30:04.066,0:30:05.534
to do what is best.

0:30:05.600,0:30:08.602
l will not have my house[br]turned into a circus.

0:30:13.566,0:30:15.834
[Moans]

0:30:15.900,0:30:17.534
Unless there is[br]a change in attitude,

0:30:17.600,0:30:19.168
Miss Sullivan is dismissed.

0:30:19.233,0:30:22.169
Arthur, and then what hope[br]do we have for Helen?

0:30:22.233,0:30:23.968
No less than[br]we had before,

0:30:24.033,0:30:25.968
and then perhaps[br]we can regain some quiet.

0:30:26.033,0:30:27.534
[Helen Moans]

0:30:51.666,0:30:53.601

Ow!

0:31:08.766,0:31:10.134

Ohh!

What you want me to do,[br]Miss Kate?

0:36:36.533,0:36:37.567
lt's noon time,

0:36:37.633,0:36:39.334

0:37:14.666,0:37:16.134
Helen...

0:37:16.200,0:37:18.435
ate from her own plate

0:37:18.500,0:37:19.634
with a spoon

0:37:19.700,0:37:22.803
Annie: all by herself...

0:37:22.866,0:37:25.068
and she folded her napkin.

0:37:25.133,0:37:27.602
The room's a wreck,

0:37:27.666,0:37:29.834
but she folded her napkin.

0:37:31.533,0:37:35.169
l'll be in my room,[br]Mrs. Keller.

0:37:40.300,0:37:41.534
Viney: Shh, shh.

0:37:41.599,0:37:43.068
Oh, Helen.

0:37:47.900,0:37:49.468
Viney: Don't be long now,[br]Miss Annie.

0:37:49.533,0:37:51.301
Lunch going to be ready[br]right away.

0:37:51.366,0:37:52.934
Mm-hmm.

0:37:53.899,0:37:56.536
My Helen folded her napkin.

0:38:09.499,0:38:10.434
What are you reading?

0:38:10.499,0:38:11.434
[Annie Sighs]

0:38:11.499,0:38:12.868
Dr. Howe's account

0:38:12.933,0:38:15.568
of his patient Laura Bridgman.

0:38:15.633,0:38:16.867
She was deaf. blind, and mute

0:38:16.933,0:38:18.301
from the age of 2.

0:38:18.366,0:38:20.534
Did he succeed with her?

0:38:21.200,0:38:22.467
He did.

0:38:22.533,0:38:24.102
Then it is possible.

0:38:24.166,0:38:27.469
Annie: With patience,[br]l suppose--

0:38:27.533,0:38:30.367
something they did not give[br]me a certificate for at Perkins.

0:38:30.433,0:38:32.802
Kate: After this morning's lesson...

0:38:34.033,0:38:35.834
the Captain wants me[br]to dismiss you,

0:38:35.900,0:38:38.869
but l am going to insist[br]that you remain.

0:38:38.933,0:38:39.867
Thank you.

0:38:41.566,0:38:43.134
Where is your family,[br]Miss Annie?

0:38:44.266,0:38:46.101
My brotherJimmie[br]was the last l had.

0:38:46.166,0:38:47.533
He died 12 years ago.

0:38:47.600,0:38:49.969
l'm sory. l--

0:38:50.033,0:38:51.934
l tried to protect him.

0:38:51.999,0:38:53.768
l failed.

0:38:53.833,0:38:55.334
lt's no use trying to protect

0:38:55.400,0:38:56.701
or speak for other people.

0:38:56.766,0:38:58.801
Not really.

0:38:58.866,0:39:01.134
The only hope

0:39:01.200,0:39:03.502
is to teach them[br]to do it for themselves.

0:39:03.566,0:39:06.702
Annie: That's what l'm[br]trying to do with Helen.

0:39:07.900,0:39:11.136
What you demand[br]of her now

0:39:11.200,0:39:12.634
is all she'll ever be.

0:39:22.466,0:39:24.201
Step.

0:39:26.066,0:39:27.000
Unh!

0:39:33.400,0:39:35.568
[Sighs]

0:39:39.999,0:39:41.435
Captain.

0:40:23.066,0:40:25.501
And if what happened[br]this morning wasn't enough,

0:40:25.566,0:40:28.035
Helen can't stand[br]to be near her.

0:40:28.099,0:40:29.734
Things have gotten worse,

0:40:29.799,0:40:31.668
and l want you[br]to give her notice.

0:40:31.733,0:40:32.834
No.

0:40:33.500,0:40:34.935
[Sighs]

0:40:34.999,0:40:38.303
Well, if you won't,[br]l must.

0:40:38.366,0:40:42.803
Annie: Good evening,[br]Captain, Mrs. Keller.

0:40:43.166,0:40:43.800
Uh...

0:40:44.166,0:40:45.400
Miss Sullivan...

0:40:46.133,0:40:49.302
l find that l am not[br]satisfied with this--

0:40:51.066,0:40:53.837
That is,[br]this arrangement--

0:40:53.900,0:40:55.534
Arthur: Will you please[br]take off your glasses?

0:40:55.599,0:40:58.069
l find it very difficult to[br]speak to you with them on.

0:40:59.033,0:41:00.735
Annie:[br]Well, of course.

0:41:04.099,0:41:06.368
lf you must, keep them on.

0:41:06.433,0:41:07.801
Now, Miss Sullivan--

0:41:07.866,0:41:09.734
Annie: Please tell me,[br]Captain, is the little house

0:41:09.800,0:41:11.734
in the grove of trees[br]being used for anything?

0:41:12.000,0:41:13.035
The garden house?

0:41:13.099,0:41:16.269
Arthur: This is just[br]what l am talking about.

0:41:16.333,0:41:20.704
Miss Sullivan, if you[br]expect to stay on here,

0:41:20.766,0:41:23.034
there must be[br]a change in your manner.

0:41:23.100,0:41:25.068
Arthur: And you must[br]convince me

0:41:25.133,0:41:27.001
that there is the slightest[br]hope of teaching a child

0:41:27.066,0:41:29.334
who flees from you[br]like the plague.

0:41:29.400,0:41:31.001
You could[br]show some sympathy.

0:41:31.066,0:41:33.401
You're absolutely right,[br]Captain.

0:41:33.466,0:41:35.401
There is not[br]the slightest possibility

0:41:35.466,0:41:37.534
of teaching a child[br]who runs away from me.

0:41:37.599,0:41:41.000
lt is hopeless here,[br]and the sooner we realize that,

0:41:41.033,0:41:43.000
the sooner we can get[br]to a solution.

0:41:43.000,0:41:44.368
lt is not hopeless!

0:41:45.900,0:41:49.570
Helen could talk by the time[br]she was 10 months old.

0:41:49.633,0:41:50.900
Before this illness,

0:41:50.966,0:41:52.167
she was such a good child.

0:41:52.233,0:41:54.201
Yes, she was[br]an extraordinary child.

0:41:54.266,0:41:57.168
l believe that,

0:41:57.233,0:42:00.069
but she's not[br]that child anymore.

0:42:00.133,0:42:01.968
l've seen pets behave[br]better than she does

0:42:02.033,0:42:03.934
and it's your pity[br]that's the cause of it.

0:42:04.099,0:42:05.134
l beg your pardon!

0:42:05.200,0:42:08.403
l'm afraid[br]your love for Helen

0:42:08.466,0:42:10.334
is a greater handicap to her

0:42:10.400,0:42:12.635
than her blindness[br]or her deafness.

0:42:12.699,0:42:13.667
Annie, before you came,

0:42:13.733,0:42:17.470
we spoke of putting[br]Helen in an asylum.

0:42:17.533,0:42:19.668
Please don't give up.

0:42:19.733,0:42:22.702
Obviously, Miss Sullivan[br]thinks it's hopeless.

0:42:22.766,0:42:25.468
Here![br]lt's hopeless here!

0:42:25.533,0:42:28.000
l'm only just beginning!

0:42:28.133,0:42:30.702
[Sighs]

0:42:30.766,0:42:32.667
Please let me show you.

0:42:32.733,0:42:34.901
Please follow me.

0:42:42.066,0:42:44.034
[Frogs Croaking]

0:42:48.999,0:42:51.335
God knows what this[br]has to do with anything.

0:42:52.099,0:42:54.236
Captain:[br]This is ridiculous.

0:42:54.300,0:42:57.169
l believe l can only[br]make progress with Helen

0:42:57.233,0:42:59.101
If l have complete[br]charge of her.

0:42:59.166,0:43:00.901
But you already[br]have that.

0:43:00.966,0:43:03.468
Annie: No.[br]l mean day and night.

0:43:03.533,0:43:05.401
She must depend on me.

0:43:05.466,0:43:07.067
For what?

0:43:07.133,0:43:08.801
For eveything![br]Her food, her clothes

0:43:08.866,0:43:10.534
her play time, her sweets.

0:43:10.600,0:43:12.568
All of these things are tools

0:43:12.633,0:43:14.735
Annie: that l can use[br]to reach her.

0:43:14.800,0:43:16.635
And how do you[br]propose to do that

0:43:16.700,0:43:18.134
when she runs away from you?

0:43:18.200,0:43:20.302
lf she can run to you,[br]l have no hope.

0:43:20.366,0:43:24.467
Annie:Which is why l must[br]live with her somewhere else.

0:43:26.133,0:43:27.067
Annie:[br]You can bring Helen here

0:43:27.133,0:43:28.767
after a long carriage ride.

0:43:28.833,0:43:30.501
She won't know where she is,

0:43:30.566,0:43:32.467
Annie: and you can still[br]see her every day,

0:43:32.533,0:43:34.401
provided she does not know[br]you're here.

0:43:34.466,0:43:38.000
How long would you keep her?

0:43:38.100,0:43:40.403
Annie: As long as it takes.

0:43:40.466,0:43:43.101
l know this is the way!

0:43:43.166,0:43:45.701
And, Captain,[br]l cannot be rude to you

0:43:45.766,0:43:47.234
if you're not around[br]to interfere with me.

0:43:51.533,0:43:54.936
Am l to understand[br]that if l say no to this,

0:43:54.999,0:43:57.268
you will abandon your charge[br]to an asylum?

0:43:57.333,0:44:00.202
An asylum is no place[br]for Helen, Captain.

0:44:00.266,0:44:03.435
Believe me, l know.

0:44:03.499,0:44:07.303
l grew up in an asylum--

0:44:07.366,0:44:08.600
in the state poorhouse,

0:44:08.666,0:44:12.970
my brother and l--[br]until it took his life.

0:44:13.033,0:44:14.834
Our playroom was the deadhouse

0:44:14.899,0:44:17.569
where they kept the bodies until[br]they could dig the graves.

0:44:17.633,0:44:20.902
Annie: It made me strong,

0:44:20.966,0:44:23.234
but Helen[br]is strong enough already.

0:44:26.833,0:44:31.037
Please give me this chance.

0:44:31.100,0:44:33.902
Give her this chance[br]to save herself.

0:44:33.966,0:44:38.135
Miss Sullivan,[br]do you like this child?

0:44:38.866,0:44:40.000
Do you?

0:44:44.299,0:44:46.703
Captain...

0:44:46.766,0:44:48.801
with your permission.

0:45:00.166,0:45:01.667
l'll give you 2 weeks.

0:45:02.833,0:45:03.901
Arthur:[br]You have 2 weeks

0:45:03.966,0:45:06.068
to get the child[br]to tolerate you.

0:45:06.133,0:45:07.400
Kate: Percy could stay here.

0:45:07.466,0:45:08.834
He could run errands for you.

0:45:10.099,0:45:11.802
2 weeks is not enough.

0:45:12.066,0:45:14.501
2 weeks is what l am offering.

0:45:17.833,0:45:18.901
l'll take it.

0:45:24.833,0:45:26.668
[Pigeons Cooing]

0:45:34.333,0:45:36.501
Where would you like[br]your suitcase, Miss Sullivan?

0:45:36.566,0:45:38.467
Oh, anywhere is fine.

0:45:40.499,0:45:42.902
How do you expect[br]to win her over in this place?

0:45:42.966,0:45:45.935
James: You plan to[br]tie her to the chair?

0:45:49.733,0:45:51.801
How is it you have[br]no pity for Helen?

0:45:51.866,0:45:54.935
To have pity for someone[br]is a waste of energy.

0:45:57.866,0:46:01.536
Feeling sorry for[br]ourselves is even worse.

0:46:04.666,0:46:06.401
Well, l hope you win,[br]Miss Sullivan.

0:46:30.600,0:46:31.934
Unh!

0:46:32.000,0:46:35.737
Kate: Well, we rode[br]in the country for 2 hours.

0:46:35.800,0:46:37.902
For all she knows[br]she could be in another town.

0:46:37.966,0:46:40.101
Bring her inside, please.

0:47:41.300,0:47:43.035
Oh, she wants me.

0:47:43.100,0:47:47.037
She can have you back[br]in 2 weeks.

0:47:50.233,0:47:54.103
Miss Annie, please[br]take good care of her.

0:47:54.166,0:47:55.500
l will.

0:48:07.966,0:48:09.867
[Helen Moaning]

0:48:34.899,0:48:36.835
Aah![br]Hush, hush, hush.

0:48:36.899,0:48:38.301
Hush, hush.

0:48:54.133,0:48:55.067

0:49:35.333,0:49:37.368
Wake up.[br]l need your help.

0:49:37.733,0:49:38.867
Ohh.

0:49:44.566,0:49:46.501
[Moans]

0:49:51.199,0:49:52.801
Try again.

0:49:52.866,0:49:54.100
Try again.

0:49:54.166,0:49:56.101
[Moans]

0:49:57.233,0:49:59.168
[Sniffs]

0:50:05.233,0:50:06.167
Good.

0:50:06.233,0:50:07.367
Let me go.

0:50:07.433,0:50:09.168
She gonna pinch me.

0:50:18.100,0:50:20.535
l think she's trying to talk.

0:50:20.600,0:50:23.068
She can talk, but[br]she's got to use her hands.

0:50:23.133,0:50:24.667
Here. Let me show you.

0:50:25.233,0:50:26.901
Aah!

0:50:26.966,0:50:28.634
She's mad at me now,[br]so she doesn't want to play,

0:50:28.700,0:50:30.301
but she knows a lot of letters.

0:50:30.466,0:50:31.400
''C...''

0:50:32.733,0:50:34.067
''A...''

0:50:35.133,0:50:36.067
''K...''

0:50:38.000,0:50:38.934
''E.''

0:50:41.566,0:50:43.000
Annie: Cake.

0:50:44.099,0:50:45.067
"C..."

0:50:45.133,0:50:46.934
''A...''

0:50:47.000,0:50:48.434
''K...''

0:50:49.633,0:50:51.201
''E.''

0:50:52.533,0:50:54.468
[Moans]

0:50:57.666,0:51:00.035
She spells cake,[br]she gets cake.

0:51:02.766,0:51:04.300
She doesn't know[br]what the word means yet...

0:51:05.700,0:51:08.002
but she will.

0:51:08.066,0:51:08.933
Percy.

0:51:16.166,0:51:17.834
We don't need her.

0:51:17.900,0:51:19.001
How would you like to learn[br]one she doesn't know?

0:51:19.066,0:51:21.935
Annie:[br]''M'' is easy.

0:51:22.000,0:51:22.934
''l'' is even easier--

0:51:23.000,0:51:24.735
Just the pinkie up.

0:51:24.799,0:51:26.268
Annie: ''L.''

0:51:28.799,0:51:29.734
'' K.''

0:51:31.466,0:51:32.466
'' M.'' Why should l[br]talk to you?

0:51:32.533,0:51:34.668
l'm teaching Percy.

0:51:34.733,0:51:38.603
M-l-L-K.

0:51:44.166,0:51:45.100
No.

0:51:45.166,0:51:47.001

0:51:48.133,0:51:49.400
Ooh, you're jealous.

0:52:05.200,0:52:06.200

0:52:07.433,0:52:08.667

0:52:19.566,0:52:23.002
Annie: At least l'm back[br]to where l can touch you.

0:52:32.133,0:52:34.134
You can go[br]back to bed, Percy.

0:52:34.200,0:52:35.468
Thank you.

0:52:58.633,0:52:59.667

0:53:09.799,0:53:13.403
l never thought that life[br]could be so quiet.

0:55:08.333,0:55:09.500
Water.

0:55:17.433,0:55:18.534
No.

0:55:18.599,0:55:20.935
Not ''apple.''

0:55:23.500,0:55:24.667
Water.

0:55:29.366,0:55:31.568
[Sighs]

0:55:31.633,0:55:34.302
Why is it so hard to understand?

0:55:45.366,0:55:47.067
We were just about[br]to have lunch.

0:55:47.133,0:55:48.434
How is she, Miss Annie?

0:55:49.500,0:55:50.602
Fine.

0:55:51.066,0:55:53.067
Annie: l taught her[br]that stitch yesterday.

0:55:53.133,0:55:54.400
Now l can't get her[br]to stop.

0:55:57.266,0:55:59.835
lt's so quiet in the house[br]without her.

0:55:59.900,0:56:01.234
Kate: Well, when[br]the Captain and James

0:56:01.300,0:56:03.368
aren't bickering, that is.

0:56:03.433,0:56:04.867
l noticed[br]they don't get along.

0:56:04.933,0:56:06.200
Oh, well, they used to

0:56:06.266,0:56:08.001
when James' mother was alive.

0:56:08.066,0:56:10.034
Kate: But then Helen[br]came along,

0:56:10.100,0:56:12.668
and, well, she takes up[br]so much of our attention.

0:56:12.733,0:56:14.067
[Sniffs]

0:56:29.133,0:56:30.467
Soup.

0:56:36.466,0:56:37.600
Annie:[br]Ooh, such a lady.

0:56:37.666,0:56:40.702
She'd rather starve[br]than eat without a spoon.

0:56:40.766,0:56:42.601
You have taught her[br]so much

0:56:42.666,0:56:43.900
in a week and a half.

0:56:43.966,0:56:45.734
Annie: It's not enough.

0:56:45.800,0:56:47.701
Obedience is not enough.

0:56:47.766,0:56:50.969
She knows so many words.

0:56:51.033,0:56:52.834
lf only she knew[br]what they meant.

0:56:52.900,0:56:55.569
Kate: And how will[br]she learn?

0:56:55.633,0:56:56.967
The way a bird learns[br]to use its wings.

0:56:57.033,0:56:58.267
lt has to come.

0:56:58.333,0:57:01.569
But how, Miss Annie?

0:57:01.633,0:57:02.567
l...

0:57:04.233,0:57:05.167
need...

0:57:06.699,0:57:08.468
more...

0:57:08.533,0:57:09.433
time.

0:57:09.499,0:57:11.201
Alone with her?

0:57:11.266,0:57:12.200
Annie: Yes.

0:57:12.266,0:57:13.367
Why not?

0:57:14.999,0:57:16.334
Because l can't--[br]l --

0:57:16.400,0:57:17.334
Annie: Spell it.

0:57:17.400,0:57:18.367
lf she ever learns,

0:57:18.433,0:57:20.268
you're the first person

0:57:20.333,0:57:21.500
she's going to want[br]to talk to.

0:57:26.533,0:57:27.967
Annie: She...

0:57:30.100,0:57:32.836
needs...

0:57:33.000,0:57:34.234
me.

0:57:35.833,0:57:37.634
She needs me, too.

0:57:40.300,0:57:41.234
No.

0:57:42.600,0:57:45.235
You have 3 days, Annie.

0:57:45.300,0:57:47.235
That's all you have.

0:58:06.033,0:58:08.402
E-G-G.

0:58:08.466,0:58:09.333
Egg.

0:58:10.533,0:58:12.568
The word is the thing.

0:58:13.218,0:58:15.153
lt has a name.

0:58:20.851,0:58:21.818
[Cracks Egg]

0:58:21.884,0:58:22.818
[Gasps]

0:58:22.884,0:58:24.819
[Chirping]

0:58:28.618,0:58:29.885
Bird.

0:58:34.918,0:58:38.688
The bird is coming out[br]of its shell, Helen.

0:58:38.751,0:58:41.186
You -- You come out, too.

0:58:44.518,0:58:47.287
[Annie Gasps]

0:58:47.351,0:58:48.785
Annie: Ohh.

0:58:56.151,0:58:57.785
Well, Francis,

0:58:57.851,0:59:00.019
l believe we're onto[br]something here.

0:59:00.084,0:59:02.820
[Horse Neighs]

0:59:02.884,0:59:04.652
James: Father?

0:59:04.718,0:59:06.519
Hello, Francis.[br]James.

0:59:06.584,0:59:07.518
Captain.

0:59:10.351,0:59:12.252
Thought l'd come[br]take a look around.

0:59:14.184,0:59:17.220
We had an idea last year[br]and tried something,

0:59:17.284,0:59:19.719
and it looks like 22 inches[br]between the plants

0:59:19.784,0:59:21.185
gives us[br]about twice the yield.

0:59:21.251,0:59:23.386
Twice the yield?

0:59:23.451,0:59:24.718
Francis:[br]We had that blue mold

0:59:24.784,0:59:26.018
pretty bad last year, sir.

0:59:26.084,0:59:29.886
We think it's carrying[br]over the winter in the roots

0:59:29.951,0:59:30.951
so we're going to try to get

0:59:31.018,0:59:32.386
all the roots and stalks[br]out of the ground

0:59:32.451,0:59:33.385
after the harvest.

0:59:33.451,0:59:35.219
Well, with the roots gone,

0:59:35.284,0:59:37.019
we get a bad rain,[br]we stand to lose

0:59:37.084,0:59:38.885
a whole layer of topsoil.

0:59:38.951,0:59:41.553
Well, l was thinking[br]of that, too.

0:59:41.618,0:59:44.921
Let's plant some low[br]grass for the winter.

0:59:44.984,0:59:47.920
Look for some,[br]would you, Francis?

0:59:55.918,0:59:58.220
Did you need something, Father?

0:59:58.284,1:00:01.220
l think l have it, Jimmy.

1:00:03.551,1:00:05.252
Sorry to interrupt.

1:00:11.084,1:00:12.051
Horse.

1:00:27.151,1:00:28.285
Horse...

1:00:30.318,1:00:32.086
eats...

1:00:32.151,1:00:33.085
apple.

1:01:11.451,1:01:13.653
How l have waited for this day.

1:01:13.718,1:01:17.521
Arthur: l only hope[br]we won't be disappointed.

1:01:17.584,1:01:19.619
Helen doesn't ever[br]disappoint you, Father.

1:01:31.884,1:01:33.318
Why are you jealous,[br]James?

1:01:33.384,1:01:34.818
l'm not jealous.

1:01:35.918,1:01:36.852
l'm envious.

1:01:39.851,1:01:42.653
lt's not only Helen who needs[br]to learn how to talk.

1:01:45.818,1:01:47.186
Things will be[br]very different here

1:01:47.251,1:01:49.219
if Helen is better.

1:01:49.284,1:01:50.718
l know.

1:01:53.918,1:01:56.487
Who will l blame then[br]for my unhappiness?

1:01:56.851,1:02:01.222
Annie: If only there was[br]someone to help me.

1:02:03.184,1:02:07.187
l feel l need a teacher[br]as much as Helen does.

1:02:07.251,1:02:08.819
[Horse Neighs]

1:02:08.884,1:02:09.751
Arthur: Whoa.

1:02:11.151,1:02:13.086
[Sighs]

1:02:14.251,1:02:15.185
[Dog Barking]

1:02:15.251,1:02:16.185
Ohh.

1:02:17.618,1:02:18.885
Captain.

1:02:18.951,1:02:22.220
Miss Sullivan, l've[br]brought Helen a playmate.

1:02:22.284,1:02:24.285
A kind of[br]graduation present.

1:02:24.351,1:02:26.352
Please, wait outside,[br]Captain.

1:02:41.718,1:02:42.652
Dog.

1:02:48.384,1:02:49.852
Well, Miss Sullivan,

1:02:49.918,1:02:51.552
the 2 weeks are up.

1:02:51.618,1:02:52.618
Not until 5:00pm.

1:02:52.684,1:02:55.686
Oh, what difference[br]can half a day make?

1:02:55.751,1:02:58.253
You don't know how eager[br]we are to have her back.

1:02:58.318,1:02:59.852
l do know.

1:02:59.918,1:03:00.852
lt's my main concern.

1:03:02.518,1:03:04.887
You've done wonders[br]for her,

1:03:04.951,1:03:07.019
and you've done us[br]a great service.

1:03:07.084,1:03:09.085
l've actually[br]missed her.

1:03:09.151,1:03:10.652
l owe that debt to you.

1:03:10.718,1:03:12.753
Pay it to Helen, Captain.

1:03:12.818,1:03:13.785
Give her another week.

1:03:15.284,1:03:17.486
Look what you've done[br]for her already.

1:03:17.551,1:03:20.086
She's well-behaved.[br]She seems quite contented.

1:03:20.151,1:03:21.085
Certainly cleaner.

1:03:21.151,1:03:22.785
She's cleaner?

1:03:22.851,1:03:25.320
ls that what[br]you care about?

1:03:25.384,1:03:27.419
She's learning[br]to talk, Captain.

1:03:27.484,1:03:29.552
The words are[br]in her fingers already.

1:03:29.618,1:03:31.486
l can't risk her[br]unlearning it

1:03:31.551,1:03:35.521
when she goes back[br]to her old life in the house.

1:03:35.584,1:03:37.786
Oh, look.

1:03:37.851,1:03:39.986
Arthur: What is she[br]spelling?

1:03:40.051,1:03:42.119
Water.

1:03:42.184,1:03:43.618
[Laughs][br]Miss Sullivan...

1:03:45.084,1:03:46.685
that dog doesn't know[br]what words are

1:03:46.751,1:03:48.586
any more than she does.

1:03:48.651,1:03:51.320
Arthur: The dog's[br]happy enough, though.

1:03:51.384,1:03:52.651
God may not have meant

1:03:52.718,1:03:54.453
for Helen to speak, Miss Sullivan.

1:03:54.518,1:03:57.554
l mean her to, Captain.

1:03:57.618,1:03:58.952
Give her half a week.

1:04:02.784,1:04:04.385
You have until 5:00pm.

1:04:05.684,1:04:08.319
Kate cannot bear[br]to be separated from her

1:04:08.384,1:04:09.752
for another night.

1:04:15.518,1:04:16.619
Where is she?

1:04:18.551,1:04:20.653
Your Miss Sullivan[br]insisted on keeping her

1:04:20.718,1:04:21.852
until 5:00pm.

1:04:23.218,1:04:24.619
[Sighs]

1:04:24.684,1:04:27.286
[Sighs]

1:04:27.351,1:04:28.885
No.

1:04:28.951,1:04:31.286
Not ''water.''

1:04:35.884,1:04:36.918
Dog.

1:04:40.984,1:04:41.918
Dog.

1:04:45.918,1:04:46.852
[Sighs]

1:04:51.751,1:04:53.085
This...

1:04:54.318,1:04:56.687
This -- This is water.

1:05:12.084,1:05:15.020
How do l make her understand?

1:05:16.351,1:05:18.786
How do l tell you?

1:05:22.451,1:05:24.686
l don't know anything.

1:05:32.351,1:05:33.819
They're satisfied.

1:05:35.151,1:05:37.286
Give them back their child

1:05:37.351,1:05:38.819
and their dog...

1:05:39.984,1:05:41.485
both house-broken.

1:05:43.051,1:05:44.519
Eveyone's satisfied.

1:05:46.218,1:05:48.653
Eveyone but me...

1:05:48.718,1:05:51.053
Annie: and you.

1:05:51.118,1:05:52.285
Reach!

1:05:55.718,1:05:57.519
Reach!

1:06:06.618,1:06:09.787
Oh, what l wanted[br]to give you, Helen.

1:06:09.851,1:06:11.586
Eveything in the earth,

1:06:11.651,1:06:14.253
eveything that we are,[br]what we dream of.

1:06:14.318,1:06:17.187
what we leave behind,

1:06:17.251,1:06:20.287
what we think and feel[br]and know and share--

1:06:20.351,1:06:22.786
it's all in words.

1:06:24.518,1:06:27.053
lfl could give you[br]one word...

1:06:27.118,1:06:29.353
[Sighs]

1:06:29.418,1:06:32.888
One word, l could[br]give you eveything.

1:06:38.951,1:06:40.852
Wool.

1:06:40.918,1:06:43.086

1:08:22.551,1:08:24.219
Let's bring her home.

1:08:37.018,1:08:38.452
Hmm?

1:08:38.518,1:08:40.987
Let's put[br]your things away.

1:08:44.384,1:08:45.818
Put them away.

1:08:47.884,1:08:49.218
Good.

1:08:49.283,1:08:51.886
You are going home.

1:08:53.551,1:08:54.484
Helen...

1:08:55.718,1:08:57.152
is going home.

1:09:02.417,1:09:04.419
That's right.[br]Put your things away.

1:09:11.118,1:09:12.618
How is she?

1:09:12.684,1:09:15.286
Please. Please[br]give me more time.

1:09:15.350,1:09:17.486
l can't.

Jimmie: Annie[br]- Jimmie.

1:10:50.218,1:10:51.752
Annie: Jimmie!

1:10:51.818,1:10:53.986
Jimmie: Annie.

1:10:54.051,1:10:55.752
Jimmie: Annie

1:10:56.984,1:10:58.919
[Sobs]

1:11:26.218,1:11:27.285
[Sniffles]

1:11:31.918,1:11:33.986
May l escort you?

1:11:34.051,1:11:37.320
l'm not vey good company[br]right now.

1:11:37.384,1:11:39.119
Oh, l didn't come[br]to keep you company.

1:11:39.184,1:11:41.352
l came to keep you from[br]getting lost in the dark.

1:11:41.418,1:11:44.253
Maybe that's just what[br]l was looking to do.

1:11:44.318,1:11:47.087
Are you feeling sorry[br]for yourself. Miss Sullivan?

1:11:47.351,1:11:49.353
Just this once.

1:11:49.418,1:11:50.552
Yes.

1:11:56.551,1:12:00.154
My father has[br]a great respect for you,

1:12:00.218,1:12:02.653
and that's not easily earned.

1:12:02.718,1:12:04.553
He fought at Vicksburg.

1:12:04.618,1:12:06.553
He edits the newspaper.

1:12:07.718,1:12:10.854
And he's always daring you[br]to measure up.

1:12:10.918,1:12:13.253
lf you have any advice for me,

1:12:13.318,1:12:15.019
l wouldn't mind hearing it.

1:12:15.104,1:12:16.118
l never really had a father,

1:12:16.184,1:12:20.488
so l'm the last person[br]to ask,

1:12:20.551,1:12:22.619
but you've got to[br]stand up to the world.

1:12:22.684,1:12:23.951
That's all l know.

1:12:24.018,1:12:26.887
Well, what if he's the world?

1:12:26.951,1:12:28.000
Then you can just[br]Iook around, James,

1:12:28.051,1:12:32.088
and see how much bigger[br]it really is.

1:12:32.151,1:12:34.553
He's a man, James.[br]That's all.

1:12:34.618,1:12:36.052
So are you.

1:12:42.284,1:12:44.019
[Knock On Door]

1:12:45.918,1:12:48.053
Aunt Evelyn.

1:12:48.118,1:12:49.819
Well, come in.[br]Come in.

1:12:50.184,1:12:51.919
lt is so good to see you.

1:12:51.984,1:12:55.554
You have come[br]and see our Helen now.

1:12:59.085,1:13:00.786
[Sniffs]

1:13:12.518,1:13:14.453
The sweet child.

1:13:14.518,1:13:17.454
Miss Sullivan[br]must be a wonder.

1:13:17.518,1:13:19.653
Arthur: Miss Sullivan.

1:13:21.218,1:13:23.887
l've brought you your[br]first month's salary.

1:13:23.951,1:13:25.886
[Sighs]

1:13:28.051,1:13:29.819
You've done quite a job.

1:13:29.884,1:13:31.985
You've taken a wild thing

1:13:32.051,1:13:33.085
and given us back[br]a child.

1:13:33.151,1:13:35.420
l taught Helen[br]one thing--

1:13:36.000,1:13:37.000
"No."

1:13:37.118,1:13:39.187
Don't do this.[br]Don't do that.

1:13:39.251,1:13:42.287
l wanted[br]to teach her ''yes.''

1:13:43.051,1:13:45.053
Well, you'll have all[br]the time you need now.

1:13:46.118,1:13:47.186
Will you help me, Captain?

1:13:47.251,1:13:48.585
Yes. How?

1:13:49.151,1:13:50.920
Don't undo what l've done.

1:13:52.084,1:13:54.386
The world is not[br]an easy place for anyone.

1:13:54.451,1:13:56.853
Annie: To give Helen[br]her way in everything

1:13:56.918,1:13:58.486
is a lie to her.

1:13:58.551,1:14:01.253
You've got to stand[br]between her and that lie.

1:14:01.318,1:14:04.054
Annie:[br]Don't give in.

1:14:04.118,1:14:07.120
We're certainly[br]going to try.

1:14:07.184,1:14:11.755
l used to wonder[br]how l would earn a living.

1:14:11.818,1:14:13.386
Now, the question is,[br]can l survive it?

1:14:14.551,1:14:16.953
l'll see you at supper.

1:14:20.384,1:14:22.319
[Sniffs]

1:14:24.484,1:14:25.618
Oh...

1:14:25.684,1:14:29.454
we glad to have you[br]back, missy.

1:14:50.651,1:14:53.320
What, Helen?[br]What?

1:14:53.384,1:14:54.318
Oh, yes.

1:14:54.384,1:14:56.285
Keys. Yes.

1:14:56.351,1:14:58.553
l'll keep the keys, hmm?

1:14:58.618,1:15:01.454
l think we've had enough[br]of locked doors around here.

1:15:02.784,1:15:04.218
Here they are.

1:15:05.318,1:15:06.752
That's right.

1:15:09.551,1:15:12.487
James:[br]''And Jacob was left alone

1:15:12.551,1:15:15.487
for the breaking of day,

1:15:15.551,1:15:19.554
James: and he wrestled[br]with an angel.

1:15:19.618,1:15:21.152
And the angel said,[br]'Let me go,

1:15:21.218,1:15:23.286

1:15:23.351,1:15:25.219
And Jacob said,[br]'l will not let you go

1:15:25.284,1:15:27.219
until you bless me.'''

1:15:28.318,1:15:29.686
Amen.

1:15:30.751,1:15:31.685
Kate: Amen.

1:15:33.384,1:15:35.652
That's a vey strange[br]grace,James.

1:15:35.718,1:15:38.087
l thought it was[br]a vey fitting grace

1:15:38.151,1:15:39.385
considering the circumstances.

1:15:39.451,1:15:42.020
So, you're an expert now[br]on the Bible

1:15:42.084,1:15:45.020
Arthur: and tobacco,[br]is that right,James?

1:15:46.684,1:15:47.985
Kate:[br]Pickles, Aunt Ev?

1:15:48.051,1:15:49.719
Aunt Ev:[br]l should say so.

1:15:49.784,1:15:51.685
You know my opinion[br]of your pickles.

1:15:51.751,1:15:54.420
Well, this is the last[br]of them, l'm afraid.

1:15:54.484,1:15:56.018
l didn't put up[br]nearly enough last summer,

1:15:56.084,1:15:58.252
but this year,[br]l intend to.

1:15:59.884,1:16:01.819
Arthur: Reverend Tompkins[br]stopped by the office today

1:16:01.884,1:16:03.685
to complain about[br]his weevils.

1:16:03.751,1:16:05.419
l told him...

1:16:07.118,1:16:08.285
James: Did you[br]tell him to--

1:16:08.351,1:16:10.486
l told him to talk to you[br]about his weevils, James.

1:16:10.551,1:16:12.119
Aunt Ev: l think[br]it's marvelous

1:16:12.184,1:16:13.785
what a successful farmer

1:16:13.851,1:16:15.419
you have turned out[br]to be, James.

1:16:18.751,1:16:20.085
Ohh.

1:16:24.651,1:16:26.252
Miss Annie, no.

1:16:26.318,1:16:27.252
[Moaning, Kicking Table]

1:16:27.318,1:16:28.252
No.

1:16:28.318,1:16:29.452
Kate: Please?

1:16:29.518,1:16:31.319
l have hardly had[br]an hour with her.

1:16:32.784,1:16:34.519
Captain?

1:16:34.584,1:16:36.018
Katie...

1:16:36.084,1:16:37.118
We...

1:16:37.184,1:16:38.919
Arthur:[br]we had a little talk.

1:16:38.984,1:16:41.419
Miss Sullivan feels[br]that if we indulge Helen in--

1:16:41.484,1:16:42.918
Aunt Ev: But what's[br]the child done?

1:16:42.984,1:16:44.919
Annie: She's learned not to[br]throw things on the floor

1:16:44.984,1:16:46.185
and kick.

1:16:46.251,1:16:47.318
Well, it's only a napkin.

1:16:47.384,1:16:49.085
lt's not as if it were[br]something breakable.

1:16:49.151,1:16:51.286
Either give Helen to me, or[br]you keep her from kicking.

1:16:51.351,1:16:52.552
Please.

1:16:52.618,1:16:53.618
What do you want me to do?

1:16:53.684,1:16:55.285
Let me take her[br]from the table.

1:16:55.351,1:16:57.619
But this is[br]her first evening back.

1:16:57.684,1:17:00.787
Kate: Will once hurt[br]so much, Miss Annie?

1:17:00.851,1:17:02.352
l have made all of Helen's[br]favorite foods.

1:17:02.418,1:17:03.552
She's testing you.

1:17:03.618,1:17:04.952
She's testing you.

1:17:05.018,1:17:06.686
Annie: l know!

1:17:06.751,1:17:08.252
Well[br]she's not kicking now.

1:17:08.318,1:17:11.287
This is what[br]l was worried about.

1:17:11.351,1:17:13.419
ls this what you promised me[br]Iess than an hour ago?

1:17:21.184,1:17:22.485
Give in to her, then.

1:17:22.551,1:17:26.454
She's the one[br]who will pay for it.

1:17:26.518,1:17:30.588
Annie: Please pass me more[br]of Helen's favorite foods.

1:17:39.651,1:17:41.919
Take her, Miss Annie.

1:17:41.984,1:17:43.785

1:17:53.518,1:17:55.686
l won't have this.

1:17:57.118,1:17:59.885
l don't see that we need[br]to send her from the table.

1:17:59.951,1:18:01.752
Let me hold Helen[br]to what she's learned,

1:18:01.818,1:18:03.386
and she will go on[br]learning.

1:18:03.451,1:18:06.720

Annie: you would not[br]stand for this.

1:18:14.584,1:18:15.584
Well, she's not.

1:18:15.651,1:18:17.486

1:19:21.584,1:19:23.018
l treat her[br]like a seeing child

1:19:23.084,1:19:24.518
because l ask her to see!

1:19:24.584,1:19:26.119
l expect her to see!

1:19:26.884,1:19:28.318
Where are you taking her?

1:19:28.484,1:19:31.319
To make her refill[br]this pitcher!

1:19:31.518,1:19:33.453
[Moaning]

1:19:39.884,1:19:41.485
Uhh!

1:19:42.051,1:19:45.387

1:19:47.034,1:19:48.001
No, l don't.

1:19:49.768,1:19:51.536
What?

1:19:53.434,1:19:54.434
Let her go.

1:19:54.501,1:19:55.835
She's right.

1:19:55.901,1:19:57.502
She's right,[br]and Kate's right.

1:19:57.568,1:19:59.036
lf you drive Miss Sullivan[br]away from here,

1:19:59.101,1:20:00.569
then we're lost.

1:20:00.634,1:20:01.935
No.
