WELL, HERE YOU GO, DAVEY.
ONE MONTH'S WAGES, AND WELL EARNED.
YOU'VE BEEN A BIG HELP, LAD.
THANK YOU, MR. MORLEY.
I'D LIKE TO CALL YOU UP AGAIN.
I'VE A JOB COMING IN THE SPRING.
YES, SIR. THAT WOULD BE JUST FINE, SIR.
ALL RIGHT THEN.
WELL, OFF YOU GO.
AND DON'T SPEND ALL THAT IN ONE PLACE.
OOH, MY WORD, DAVEY.
THAT IS A TIDY SUM YOU'VE ACCUMULATED THERE.
I'll TELL YOU WHAT.
TOMORROW WE'LL GO AND SEE MR. McRAE AT THE BANK
AND SEE ABOUT OPENING AN ACCOUNT FOR YOU.
WHY?
MONEY HAS TO BE PUT TO WORK, YOU KNOW.
IT DOESN'T ACCRUE INTEREST SITTING UNDER YOUR BED. OH, NO.
A SAVINGS ACCOUNT WOULD BE
THE VERY THING, WOULDN'T IT, RACHEL?
OH, IT'S SUCH
A GOOD WAY FOR YOU TO START TO LEARN TO MANAGE YOUR FINANCES.
I DON'T NEED TO SAVE MY MONEY. I'M GOING TO SPEND IT.
THAT'S WHAT I SAVED IT FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE.
WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO SPEND IT ON?
A MICROSCOPE.
MICROSCOPE?
I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'LL FIND A MICROSCOPE
IN THIS NECK OF THE WOODS.
IT'S NOT AS IF YOU CAN WALK INTO THE GENERAL STORE
AND PICK ONE OFF THE SHELF, YOU KNOW.
HETTY, AREN'T YOU GOING TO SUMMERSIDE TOMORROW
TO PICK UP THOSE TEXTBOOKS?
YES. WHY?
WHY NOT POKE AROUND THERE AND TRY
TO FIND A MICROSCOPE FOR DAVEY?
WELL, I COULD TRY, I SUPPOSE...
THANKS, MISS KING, YOU'RE THE GREATEST.
DAVEY, WASH YOUR HANDS.
DORA, SUPPER'S READY.
[ WHINNYING ]
WHOA, THERE.
WHOOF, OHH...
WELL, DID YOU GET IT, MISS KING?
WELL, AS A MATTER OF F
YES, IT IS, BUT--
THANKS, MISS KING.
UH, D-DAAIT UP A M
1, UH, OH, MERCY.
STAY.
NOW, HOLD ON, HOLD ON, DAVEY KEITH.
I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU.
ENCYCLOPEDIAS?
WHERE'S MY MICROSCOPE?
I WAS ABOUT TO EXPLAIN.
AS IT TURNED OUT, THE PRICE OF A MICROSCOPE
WOULD BE WAY BEYOND YOUR MEANS, MY BOY.
OH, I LOOKED INTO IT THOROUGHLY AND, WELL,
I KNEW HOW DISAPPOINTED YOU'D BE IF I CAME HOME EMPTY-HANDED.
THIS ISN'T WHAT I ASKED FOR.
I KNOW, BUT, OH...
YOU'LL SEE, THESE BOOKS...
THEY'RE CHOCK-FULL OF THE MOST
FASCINATING SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION.
AND WHEN YOU THINK OF IT, A SET OF ENCYCLOPEDIAS WOULD BE
A MUCH MORE SENSIBLE INVESTMENT FOR A BOY YOUR AGE
THAN A MICROSCOPE, HMM?
WELL, THANK YOU MISS KING, BUT I DIDN'T ASK YOU TO BUY THEM,
AND I'D APPRECIATE IT IF YOU'D BRING
THEM BACK AND GET MY MONEY, PLEASE.
I BEG YOUR PARDON?
THE BOY WORKED AWFULLY HARD FOR THAT MONEY,
AND IF HE REALLY DOESN'T WANT--
HOW DOES HE KNOW WHAT HE WANTS IF HE WON'T GIVE THESE A CHANCE?
NOW, LOOK HERE, DAVEY KEITH.
I WANT YOU TO GIVE THESE ENCYCLOPEDIA A TRY,
AT LEAST, LET'S SAY, FOR A MONTH
BEFORE WE DISCUSS THE MATTER ANY FURTHER.
NOW, HERE.
THERE'S NO POINT IN ME WORKING FOR MR. MORLEY
IF I CAN'T EVEN SPEND MY OWN MONEY THE WAY I WANT TO.
DAVEY! BREAKFAST!
DAVEY KEITH, WHY AREN'T YOU DRESSED?
WE HAVE TO MEET THE TRAIN IN HALF AN HOUR.
I'M NOT GOING.
HA, YOU MOST CERTAINLY ARE.
YOU KNOW PERFECTLY WELL FELICITY'S
BRINGING THOSE NEW BOYS
HERE TODAY TO THE FOUNDLING HOME.
AND YOU AND DORA MUST BE THERE TO WELCOME THEM.
I DON'T SEE WHY.
OH, TOO MUCH TO ASK YOU JUST TO BE NEIGHBOURLY, IS IT?
THINK OF SOMEONE ELSE BUT YOURSELF FOR ONCE.
THERE.
NOW, I WANT YOU DRESSED
AND AT THE TABLE IN FIVE MINUTES.
IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?
WHOO, JANET, OVER HERE!
OOH, HETTY, OH, IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU.
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE HERE.
HELLO, DEAR.
SO SORRY WE'RE LATE.
WHERE'S FELICITY?
WELL, SHE DECIDED TO STAY ON
AT CHARLOTTETOWN AT THE LAST MOMENT.
WHAT?
IT'S A LONG STORY. I'll EXPLAIN IT TO YOU LATER.
BUT FIRST, I'D LIKE YOU ALL TO MEET BRET AND IAN McNULTY.
HELLO.
HI.
WELCOME TO AVONLEA.
YES, WELL, THERE'LL BE PLENTY OF TIME
TO MAKE ACQUAINTANCE LATER.
IN THE MEANTIME, WHY DON'T WE GET THESE YOUNGSTERS
HOME AND SETTLED IN, SHALL WE?
OF COURSE. I'll TAKE THE SUITCASE.
DAVEY, GET HIS SUITCASE.
LEAVE OFF!
YES, PERHAPS NOT.
COME ON, BOYS, HERE WE GO.
I BROUGHT THE RED CUTTER.
OH, BELLE-MARIE, GOOD.
THIS IS BRET AND IAN,
AND I'D LIKE YOU TO SHOW THESE TWO BOYS UP TO THEIR ROOM.
NOW...
I'M SURE THEY MUST BE TIRED AFTER THEIR VOYAGE. OFF YOU GO.
SURE, MRS. KING. FOLLOW ME.
OFF YOU GO.
DAVEY, GO, GO...
GO MEET THE NEW BOYS.
GO ON NOW.
THESE ARE YOUR BEDS OVER HERE.
YOU CAN PUT YOUR THINGS AWAY
IN THE BOTTOM TWO DRAWERS OF THAT BUREAU BY THE WINDOW.
BIT, SLAGGY, ISN'T IT?
WE HAVEN'T HAD ANYONE FROM AWAY BEFORE.
IF THOSE TWO LITTLE BOYS HADN'T BEEN CAUGHT STEALING FOOD,
THEY'D BE LIVING ON THE STREETS OF CHARLOTTETOWN STILL.
WHY WEREN'T THEY REPORTED AFTER THEY RAN AWAY?
WELL, IT SEEMS THE PEOPLE THEY WERE PLACED WITH
WERE GLAD TO BE RID OF THEM.
THEY REGISTERED A COMPLAINT WITH THE BERRINGTON HOME
THAT IAN AND BRET WERE FAR TOO DIFFICULT TO BE SUITABLE
AS FARM WORKERS.
THAT'S DISGRACEFUL.
HOW I ABHOR THE PRACTICE OF IMPORTING BRITISH CHILDREN
UNDER THE PRETENSE THEY'RE TO BE ADOPTED
AND THEN TREATING THEM AS CHATTEL,
WORKING THEM TO THE BONE -- IT'S...
IT'S CRIMINAL.
I JUST HOPE FELICITY CAN CONVINCE THOSE IMMIGRATION
PEOPLE TO GIVE HER PERMANENT CUSTODY.
YOU SEE, LEGALLY,
IAN AND BRET ARE STILL WARDS OF THE BERRINGTON HOME IN ENGLAND.
I DON'T WANT TO IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THOSE
TWO BOYS IF THEY HAD TO GO BACK THERE.
THIS IS NICE.
DID YOU MAKE IT YOURSELF?
KEEP YOUR DIRTY HANDS OFF OUR THINGS.
HEY! DON'T BE SO ROUGH. HE'S JUST A LITTLE KID.
I'D WATCH MESELF IF I WAS YOU.
WHAT FOR? YOUR BROTHER'S THE ONE WHO'S THREATENING PEOPLE.
CLEAR OFF, OR I'll SHOW YOU WHAT FOR.
GO, DAVEY.
STOP IT.
BEAT HIM. COME ON, BRET.
[ CLAMOURING ]
GOOD GRIEF, WHAT'S THAT?
YOU STAY HERE.
SMASH HIM, BRET!
GO, DAVEY!
COME ON, HIT HIM!
BOYS, BOYS, BOYS!
STOP IT.
GRACIOUS PROVIDENCE!
DAVEY, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
THE REST OF YOU, OUT.
COME ON, THE SHOW'S OVER.
YOUNG MAN, YOU APOLOGIZE THIS INSTANT.
BUT HE THREW THE FIRST PUNCH.
DON'T ARGUE, SAY SORRY. MAKE IT QUICK.
GO.
SORRY.
SO YOU SHOULD BE.
ME? IT WAS YOU WHO STARTED IT.
HEY! JUST A MINUTE.
THAT'S QUITE ENOUGH, DAVEY KEITH.
DOWNSTAIRS. WAIT WITH DORA.
WE'RE GOING HOME.
HERE I WAS HOPING
YOU'D MAKE THOSE NEW BOYS FEEL WELCOME.
INSTEAD YOU GO AND GET YOURSELF INTO A ROUND IF FISTICUFFS.
HE TOOK A SWING AT ME.
I'VE GOT A RIGHT TO DEFEND MYSELF.
NOW, YOU LISTEN HERE.
THOSE POOR BOYS HAVE HAD NOWHERE NEAR
THE ADVANTAGES IN LIFE THAT YOU'VE HAD.
IT'S NO WONDER THEY'RE A BIT ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES.
BUT I EXPECT MORE FROM YOU, DAVEY KEITH,
THAN TO STOOP TO PHYSICAL VIOLENCE.
YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOURSELF BIGGER THAN THAT, BOY.
THE NEXT TIME YOU SEE BRET AND IAN,
I WANT YOU TO SMOOTH THINGS OVER, YOU HEAR?
MAKE FRIENDS WITH THEM.
I DON'T SEE HOW I CAN -- THEY SURE DON'T WANT
TO BE FRIENDS WITH ME.
SURELY YOU REMEMBER HOW IT WAS WHEN YOU AND DORA FIRST CAME
HERE TO LIVE WITH ME AFTER MRS. LYNDE TOOK SICK?
IT WASN'T EASY FOR YOU AT FIRST, WAS IT?
BUT THEN EVENTUALLY EVERYTHING
JUST SORTED ITSELF OUT, DIDN'T IT?
TIME'S UP.
THAT WASN'T SO BAD NOW, WAS IT?
WELL NOW, I EXPECT YOU'RE BOTH LOOKING FORWARD TO MAKING
LOTS OF NEW FRIENDS AT SCHOOL NOW, AREN'T YOU?
WE'D SOONER EARN A LIVING, IF YOU MUST KNOW.
NOW, NOW, THERE ARE PLENTY OF YEARS AHEAD FOR THAT.
OH, CHILDHOOD'S A PRECIOUS THING, YOU KNOW.
SO ENJOY IT WHILST YOU CAN.
DAVEY, DORA, YOU CAN COME IN NOW.
UH, YES...
DAVEY, THERE WAS SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO SAY
TO BRET, WASN'T THERE?
I'M SORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY.
I HOPE THERE'S NO HARD FEELINGS.
THAT'S BETTER.
OH, MY,
IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY OUTSIDE,
SO I'll NOT KEEP YOU CHILDREN COOPED UP HERE A MOMENT LONGER.
GO ON. OUTSIDE. ALL OF YOU.
GO ON. OUT IN THE YARD AND ENJOY THE FRESH AIR.
GO ON.
GO ON NOW. SCARVES AND GLOVES, IT'S COLD.
OFF YOU GO.
FRESH AIR MY EYE.
I'll CATCH ME DEATH OUT HERE.
IT'S NOT THAT BAD.
IT MUST GET COLD
IN ENGLAND IN THE WINTER, TOO.
NOT LIKE THIS. IT'S JUST NOT NATURAL.
YOU HAVE TO DRESS FOR THE WEATHER, THAT'S ALL.
WRAP YOUR SCARF AROUND YOU LIKE THIS.
THIS WILL BE BETTER.
I CAN'T BREATHE.
WHAT?
I CAN'T BREATHE.
FOR PETE'S SAKE. IT WAS ONLY A JOKE.
HOW ABOUT I SMOTHER YOU, AND SEE HOW YOU LIKE IT?
STOP IT. DAVEY!
BETTER WATCH YOUR MOUTH. I'll POUND YOUR TEETH IN.
QUICK, DO WHAT I DO.
AHH, IT WAS JUST A JOKE.
THINK YOU'RE SMART, DO YOU?
DIRTY LITTLE BEGGARS.
YOU'RE IN FOR IT NOW.
OH, I'M QUITE ENCOURAGED, REALLY.
THEY'LL DO JUST FINE IN SCHOOL WITH A BIT OF TUTORING.
I'll HAVE THEM CAUGHT UP WITH THE OTHERS IN NO TIME.
[ GLASS RATTLING ]
WHAT IN BLAZES--
HEAVENS, RACHEL, THEY'RE KILLING EACH OTHER OUT THERE.
[ LAUGHING AND YELLING ]
IT'S ALL RIGHT, HETTY, THEY'RE JUST PLAYING.
I SEE, WELL, THAT'S GOOD.
OHH!!
AH, HA, HA!!
WHAT'S SO BLESSED FUNNY, HETTY KING?
WELL, I'M SORRY. I COULDN'T HELP IT.
RACHEL LYNDE, DON'T YOU DARE. RACHEL!
AAHH!!
HA, HA, HA...
[ LAUGHING AND YELLING ]
WOULD YOU BOYS LIKE A COOKIE?
WHAT KIND?
SHORTBREAD WITH WALNUTS.
THANKS, MRS. LYNDE.
TA.
WELL, YOU'LL FREEZE STANDING THERE WITH
ALL THOSE WET THINGS ON, BRET.
DAVEY WILL LOAN YOU
NO.
A SWEATER TO CHANGE INTO.
DON'T BE SILLY. GIVE THE SWEATER--
LEAVE OFF.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
I'll BE DRY IN A JIFF.
SUIT YOURSELF.
HEY, BRET, YOU WANT TO PLAY
SNAKES AND LADDERS WITH ME LATER?
SNAKES AND LADDERS?
YEAH.
ALL RIGHT, HOW MUCH YOU PLAY FOR?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
HOW MUCH YOU BET?
A PENNY A GAME?
TUPPENCE? WHAT?
WELL, I'VE NEVER REALLY PLAYED SNAKES AND LADDERS
FOR MONEY BEFORE.
WELL, WHAT DO YOU PLAY FOR?
I GUESS I PLAY FOR THE FUN OF IT.
FUN?
GIVE IT A MISS THEN.
I'M NOT REAL BIG ON FUN.
WHAT AM I? TRY AND GUESS.
A MONKEY'S DUFF?
NO.
BEATS ME.
I'M A WALRUS, LOOK.
OH, SURE, I SEE IT NOW.
HEY, QUINT, GUESS WHAT I AM.
REAL BRIGHT SPECIMEN, HE IS.
WHAT SAY WE TEACH THIS LOT CHICKEN OR DARE?
HOW DO YOU PLAY THAT?
EVERYBODY DRAWS STRAWS, SEE?
AND THE ONE WHO PICKS THE LONGEST STRAW
GETS TO DARE EVERYONE ELSE TO DO SOMETHING.
THEM THAT DON'T IS CHICKEN.
I ALWAYS SMELL TROUBLE AFOOT WHEN
BOYS CONGREGATE IN A HORDE LIKE THAT.
HEY, THAT'S NOT FAIR.
YOU'RE A DARN CHEAT.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
HE'LL FREEZE TO DEATH.
COME ON, STOP IT.
WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO DO, DROWN HIM?
TEACH HIM A LESSON, THAT'S ALL.
HE SHOULDN'T HAVE CALLED ME A CHEAT.
I WON FAIR AND SQUARE, DIDN'T I?
ALL RIGHT THEN.
LET'S START THE GAME.
WHO SHOULD I PICK TO GO FIRST?
YOU, MR. WALRUS.
[ LAUGHING ]
OK, LET'S GO.
WHAT IS IT?
[ LAUGHING ]
COME ON.
[ LAUGHING ]
COME HERE! WAIT! COME BACK HERE! WHOA! WHOA!
HURRY UP. COME ON.
[ LAUGHING ]
COME ON. LET'S GET THE SHEEP.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THE SHEEP?
COME ON.
ALL RIGHT, YOU KEEP THEM RIGHT THERE.
GO ON. GET IN THERE. GO IN.
CRIPES, WHO LET THEM THINGS IN HERE?
HEY, GET, SHOO, SHOO.
[ LAUGHING ]
WE AIN'T DOING NOTHING.
HEY! GET OUT OF THERE.
EDGAR ALREADY DID THE GENERAL STORE.
WHY DO WE HAVE TO COME BACK?
BECAUSE I SAY SO,
OR YOU OWE ME A NICKEL.
GOT IT. ALL YOURS, GUV.
GO ON BEFORE SOMEONE SEES US.
BRET...
BRET...IAN...
OOH, BAKED BEANS.
MY FAVOURITE.
[ PHONE RINGING ]
OH, I'll GET IT.
FUNNY THING IS I COULD HAVE SWORN WE WERE ALL OUT.
MY EYES AREN'T WHAT THEY USED TO BE.
YES, MURIEL.
GOOD HEAVENS.
NO, NO, NO, I APPRECIATE YOU CALLING ME FIRST.
YES, I WILL.
I'll LOOK INTO THE MATTER IMMEDIATELY
AND I'll TELEPHONE YOU RIGHT BACK.
WHAT'S HAPPENED?
WELL, IT SEEMS THAT SOME PERSON OR PERSONS UNKNOWN HAVE BEEN
PULLING PRANKS ALL OVER THE TOWN.
APPARENTLY, THEY'VE BROKEN INTO
THE GENERAL STORE AS WELL
AND EMPTIED OUT THE CASH REGISTER.
YES, MURIEL FOUND THE DOOR OPEN JUST NOW
WHEN SHE WENT THERE TO DO THE RECEIPTS.
DONNY LESTER THINKS
THE McNULTY BROTHERS MAY HAVE HAD A HAND IN IT.
LUCKILY, MURIEL WANTS ME TO SPEAK TO THEM FIRST
BEFORE SHE CALLS IN THE CONSTABLE.
I DO HOPE THEY WEREN'T INVOLVED.
WE'LL FIND OUT SOON ENOUGH.
DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS, DAVEY?
UM, MORE BEANS?
STOP IT AT ONCE. STOP! ALL OF YOU.
HELLO? CECILY?
AUNT HETTY, WE'RE UPSTAIRS.
STOP IT, PLEASE.
WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME IS GOING ON HERE?
THANK HEAVENS YOU'RE HERE, AUNT HETTY.
I'VE BEEN GOING CRAZY.
SO I SEE.
CECILY, I'D LIKE A WORD ALONE
WITH BRET AND IAN, PLEASE, IF YOU DON'T MIND.
THE OTHERS CAN WAIT IN THE KITCHEN TILL WE'RE THROUGH.
GO ON.
WITH PLEASURE.
I WANT THAT MONEY YOU TOOK
FROM THE GENERAL STORE, AND I WANT IT NOW.
OTHERWISE, THE CONSTABLE WILL BE PAYING YOU A VISIT,
AND HE IS NOT AS UNDERSTANDING
AS I AM.
THAT BRAT DAVEY SQUEALED, DIDN'T HE?
NO, DAVEY DIDN'T SQUEAL ON YOU.
BUT IT APPEARS YOU'VE JUST
SQUEALED ON HIM.
GO ON, PACK YOUR THINGS.
PACK.
HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO STAY IN THIS DUMP?
YOU'LL STAY IN THIS DUMP UNTIL YOU LEARN TO BEHAVE
AS YOUNG GENTLEMEN SHOULD INSTEAD OF RUNNING AMOK
WREAKING HAVOC LIKE RAGING BARBARIANS.
AND YOU MAY BEGIN...
BY MAKING UP YOUR BEDS.
YOU CAN'T BOSS US.
UNLESS YOU ARE PLANNING TO SLEEP ON THE FLOOR,
DO AS YOU'RE TOLD AND MAKE UP YOUR BEDS.
GOOD NIGHT.
BLINKING COLONIALS.
HOW DO YOU STAND LIVING WITH THEM TWO
EYEBALLING YOU DAY AND NIGHT?
AND WHERE DO YOU BOYS THINK YOU'RE GOING?
OH, NO, I HAVE A LITTLE PROJECT IN MIND
FOR THE THREE OF YOU.
MARCH.
HEY!
CLUMSY ME.
I'll SHOW YOU CLUMSY.
AH.
BLAST!
TAKE THAT!
DAVEY KEITH, UGH, EWW.
AND HOW DID THIS HAPPEN, HMM?
I TRIPPED.
I SEE.
VERY WELL, UPSTAIRS. I'll GET YOU WASHED OFF, GO ON.
GO ON.
BRET, IAN?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
JUST LOOKING, THAT'S ALL.
I THINK THIS OLD BOILER'S GONE WONKY BY THE SOUND IT'S MAKING.
AND HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
HELPED SOMEONE FIX A STEAM TRACTOR ONCE.
SURE YOU DID.
I'M NOT HAVING YOU ON. LOOK, GET UP CLOSE AND LISTEN.
IT SOUNDS LIKE THE DICKENS.
[ GURGLING ]
I DON'T HEAR ANYTHING.
[THUD]
SEE?
THIS BOILER WAS FINE BEFORE YOU TWO WENT NEAR IT.
WHAT DID YOU DO?
NOTHING, HONEST. WE DIDN'T TOUCH IT.
[THUD]
WE BETTER CLEAR OUT.
WHAT IS GOING ON DOWN HERE?
YOUR BOILER'S ON THE BLINK, MUM.
IF I WAS YOU, I'D SHUT HER OFF
TILL YOU CAN GET IT CHECKED OVER.
YOU BETTER HAVE A LOOK AT IT YOURSELF, MISS KING.
I'M TELLING YOU, IT AIN'T SAFE.
GOOD LORD, HE'S RIGHT -- GO, GO,
GO ON, OUT, OUT!
QUICKLY, ALL OF YOU. GO ON, HURRY.
[ EXPLOSION ]
MISS KING?
OOH, OOH.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT, MISS KING?
YES, YES, AHEM, STILL ALIVE.
THANK YOU.
BAD STATE OF AFFAIRS, ISN'T IT?
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A GOOD DEAL WORSE.
IT'S A GOOD THING YOU NOTICED SOMETHING WAS WRONG, BRET.
IF I'D NOT SHUT DOWN THAT BOILER WHEN I DID,
THE WHOLE PLACE MIGHT HAVE GONE UP IN SMOKE.
OOH, AND FOR THAT I'M IN YOUR DEBT, YOUNG MAN.
WELL DONE, HMM, WELL DONE.
YES, WELL, MAY AS WELL CALL IT A DAY.
GO ON, RUN ALONG HOME, WILL YOU, BOYS?
WHILST I SORT OUT THIS MESS HERE.
MISS KING,
I'M SORRY ABOUT ALL THIS.
OH, NO, NO, IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, CHILD.
GOODNESS, I'VE BEEN HOUNDING MR. TREMAYNE FOR YEARS
ABOUT THIS ANTIQUATED OLD FURNACE HERE.
AND, AS USUAL, I WAS RIGHT.
YOU'RE A WET BLANKET, YOU ARE.
CHEER UP, WE'RE HOME FREE.
NO MORE WORK.
YEAH, BECAUSE YOU'VE WRECKED THE BOILER ON PURPOSE
TO GET OUT OF WORK.
IT BLEW UP OF ITS OWN ACCORD.
NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.
AND EVEN IF IT WAS, YOU'D NEVER BE ABLE TO PROVE ANYTHING.
SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN HURT.
NOBODY GOT A SCRATCH.
THAT'S ALL WHAT MATTERS, ISN'T IT?
YOU REALLY DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYBODY EXCEPT YOU, DO YOU?
LOOK, I DON'T FANCY PEOPLE PUSHING ME AROUND,
FORCING ME TO DO THINGS I DON'T WANT.
ANY THAT DOES GETS WHAT THEY DESERVE.
WHAT ARE YOU GAWKING AT?
1, I WAS JUST WONDERING... HOW YOU CUT YOUR BACK LIKE THAT.
IT'S NOTHING -- I GOT HORSE-WHIPPED
ONCE OR TWICE WHEN I FIRST CAME OVER.
WHY?
WASN'T QUICK ENOUGH DOING ME CHORES OR SOME SUCH ROT.
LOOK, DON'T GO RUNNING AND TELLING WHAT YOU SEE,
'CAUSE I'll BOX YOUR EARS.
DON'T NEED THEM LADIES FUSSING OVER IT.
THAT'S WHY YOU RAN AWAY FROM THE FARM,
BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY DID TO YOU?
NOT ME.
I CAN TAKE ME LUMPS IF I HAVE TO.
BUT THE OLD BEGGAR FANCIED HE'D DO THE SAME TO IAN.
I COULDN'T STAND FOR HIM BEING HIT NOW.
HE'S JUST A BLEEDING KID.
NOBODY WILLL EVER HURT YOU OR IAN LIKE THAT HERE IN AVONLEA.
THEY BETTER NOT, OR I'LL GIVE IT RIGHT
BACK TO THEM, TWICE AS BADLY.
IF YOU GAVE IT HALF A CHANCE,
YOU MIGHT REALLY GET TO LIKE IT HERE.
IN THAT ORPHANAGE? NOT PERISHING LIKELY.
FELICITY KING WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOU,
JUST LIKE SHE TAKES GOOD CARE OF
EVERYBODY ELSE THAT LIVES WITH HER.
IF YOU PEOPLE REALLY WANTED TO HELP US,
YOU'D SHIP US BACK TO ENGLAND ON THE NEXT BOAT.
BRET.
HELL'S BELLS, YOU'RE A RIGHT LITTLE PEST, YOU ARE.
PUT IT BACK.
IT'S MISS KING'S SECRET EMERGENCY FUND.
IF IT'S SUCH A SECRET, HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT?
SHE TOLD ME THE LOCATION IN CASE ANYTHING HAPPENED.
I BET YOU BEEN DIPPING IN YOURSELF.
LOOK, I JUST NEED ENOUGH FOR TRAIN FARE TO HALIFAX.
NO, PUT IT BACK.
COME ON, I BEEN TRYING TO SCARE UP ENOUGH MONEY FOR ME AND IAN
TO FIND OUR BROTHER, JIM.
I'D HAVE IT TOO, EXCEPT YOU KEEP JINXING US.
IT'S TRUE, HONEST.
THAT'S WHERE WE WERE HEADED
WHEN THEY NICKED US AND BROUGHT US HERE.
JIM'S 18. HE'LL TAKE CARE OF US.
HOW COME HE HASN'T COME FOR YOU THEN?
HE GOT SHIPPED OVER BEFORE US.
HE DON'T EVEN KNOW WE'RE HERE.
WE DON'T KNOW WHERE HE IS EXACTLY.
HE GOT SENT TO NOVA SCOTIA.
I THOUGHT WE'D JUST NOSE AROUND THERE TILL WE FOUND HIM.
THAT'S CRAZY -- LOOK, MISS KING KNOWS
A LOT ABOUT THIS STUFF -- SHE CAN PROBABLY FIND
YOUR BROTHER TWICE AS FAST AS YOU CAN.
NO, SHE'LL ONLY TRY AND STOP US.
IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME THING.
SHE'LL SAY, JIM'S NOT FIT TO BE OUT LEGAL GUARDIAN
OR WE'D BE BETTER OFF STAYING IN AN ORPHANAGE.
NO, SHE'S NOT LIKE THAT.
SHE'LL HELP YOU FIND HIM IF YOU ASK HER.
NO, WE'RE GOING AND THAT'S IT.
YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
I'll CALL MISS KING RIGHT NOW IF YOU TRY.
YOU BETTER BE BLEEDING RIGHT.
I AM. I PROMISE.
HELLO, FELICITY.
YES.
OH, I, I SEE.
YES, YES, I UNDERSTAND.
HMM?
THANK YOU FOR TRYING, DEAR.
HMM.
BYE-BYE.
WHAT DID SHE SAY?
YEAH, WHERE'S JIM?
IT'S NOT GOOD NEWS, I'M AFRAID, UH...
YOUR BROTHER'S GOT HIMSELF INTO SOME SORT OF TROUBLE, IT SEEMS.
ACCORDING TO THE RECORDS AT THE BERRINGTON HOME,
HE WAS APPRENTICED TO A PRINT SHOP IN HALIFAX
TILL JUST LAST MONTH.
THEN HE WAS ARRESTED
FOR ASSAULTING
SOME MAN IN A BRAWL.
HE WAS SENT TO JAIL.
HE'S NOT BEEN HEARD FROM SINCE.
THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT.
YOU SEE, THEY MUST HAVE MADE A MISTAKE.
NO, NO MISTAKE.
I'M SORRY TO SAY.
TAKE US TO SEE HIM IN JAIL THEN,
SO HE KNOWS WE'RE ALL RIGHT?
IF ONLY I COULD, BRET, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE AUTHORITY
TO TAKE YOU BOYS TO HALIFAX.
AT LEAST NOT TILL FELICITY GETS
YOUR IMMIGRATION PAPERS SQUARED AWAY.
EVEN SO, WE HAVE TO PROCEED WITH THE UTMOST CAUTION.
OTHERWISE YOU COULD BE SENT BACK TO THAT HOME, YOU KNOW.
TOLD YOU SHE WOULDN'T HELP US.
COME ON, IAN.
COULDN'T THEY JUST GO FOR A DAY?
NOBODY WOULD FIND OUT.
OF COURSE NOT. WE CAN'T TAKE THE RISK.
WE MUSTN'T DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD JEOPARDIZE
FELICITY'S GUARDIANSHIP OF THOSE BOYS.
IF THEY WERE SENT BACK TO THAT BERRINGTON HOME,
THEY'D BE PLACED ON SOME FARM.
LORD KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THEM.
BUT I PROMISED WE'D HELP THEM.
YES, WELL, YOU SHOULDN'T MAKE PROMISES
YOU EXPECT OTHERS TO KEEP FOR YOU.
COULDN'T, COULDN'T WE JUST--
NO, DAVEY, I'll NOT DO A THING TILL FELICITY RETURNS,
AND THAT IS FINAL.
REMEMBER WHEN JIM GAVE THIS TO YOU?
HE MADE IT HIMSELF.
HE GAVE IT TO YOU WHEN MOM DIED.
WHEN WE'RE BACK WITH JIM, IT'LL BE LIKE IT USED TO BE.
THEY WON'T LET US, THOUGH, WILL THEY?
WHAT ARE YOU LURKING ABOUT FOR?
PUSH OFF.
I CAN'T.
I'M GOING TO GET YOU TO HALIFAX SOMEHOW.
COME AGAIN?
WE'RE GOING TO HALIFAX RIGHT NOW.
DID MISS KING CHANGE HER MIND?
NOT EXACTLY.
SHE'S NOT GOING WITH US.
YOU'RE TAKING US ON YOUR BLINKING OWN?
AGHAST.
IT'S EASY, YOU SEE.
WE JUST TAKE THE TRAIN TO CHARLOTTETOWN,
THEN WE CATCH THE FERRY.
WHEN WE LAND IN NOVA SCOTIA,
WE JUST BOARD THE NEXT TRAIN TO HALIFAX.
WHERE DID YOU GET THE MONEY
FOR ALL THIS?
YOU PINCHED THE OLD GIRL'S
EMERGENCY FUND, DIDN'T YOU?
I'll PAY HER BACK.
BESIDES, THIS IS KIND OF AN EMERGENCY, ISN'T IT?
WHATEVER YOU SAY, GUV.
[ TRAIN ARRIVING ]
ARE YOU SURE WE'RE GOING THE RIGHT WAY?
'CAUSE I DON'T SEE NOTHING.
I'M PRETTY SURE.
THE MAN ON THE FERRY SAID TO WALK SOUTH TO LASSITER STREET,
THEN TURN RIGHT AND JUST KEEP WALKING TILL WE SEE IT.
THERE'S LASSITER STREET.
[ LAUGHING ]
JIM McNULTY?
AFRAID YOU'RE TOO LATE, BOYS.
YOUR BROTHER WAS RELEASED OVER A WEEK AGO.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE WENT?
WE HAVE TO FIND HIM.
I COULDN'T SAY.
THE INMATES DON'T USUALLY TELL US WHERE THEY'RE GOING.
YOU COULD TRY ASKING AT THAT PRINT SHOP OVER
ON RUTHERFORD STREET WHERE HE WAS APPRENTICED.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU, BOYS?
WE'RE LOOKING FOR OUR BROTHER.
HIS NAME'S JIM McNULTY.
HE'S NOT HERE.
WE'VE BEEN TO THE JAIL, SIR.
THEY SAID YOU MIGHT KNOW WHERE HE IS.
IF I KNEW WHERE HE WAS, I'D FIND HIM MYSELF AND TAN HIS HIDE.
I PAID THOSE SWINDLERS FROM THE BERRINGTON HOME GOOD MONEY
FOR HIS KEEP AND THEY WON'T GIVE ME BACK A PENNY.
AND SOMEBODY'S GOING TO PAY.
LET'S GO.
BE ON YOUR WAY...BEFORE I FORGET MY MANNERS.
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO BE SO HARD ON A BUNCH OF KIDS.
SHUT YOUR MOUTH. THIS IS NO CONCERN OF YOURS.
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?
HOME.
I'M TIRED AND I WANT A CUP OF TEA.
WHAT DO WE DO NOW?
GO HOME, I GUESS.
SHOULD HAVE BLOODY WELL KNOWN.
IT JUST AIN'T FAIR.
WE AIN'T GOING BACK TO YOUR BLASTED AVONLEA.
BOYS, WAIT.
I COULDN'T SAY ANYTHING IN FRONT OF MY HUSBAND,
BUT I KNOW WHERE YOUR BROTHER IS.
I'VE KEPT IN CONTACT WITH HIM BECAUSE HE WAS
VERY KIND TO ME -- HE'S LIKE ONE OF MY OWN,
SOMETHING MY HUSBAND COULD NEVER UNDERSTAND.
HE HAD JIM THROWN IN JAIL, BECAUSE HE WAS PROTECTING ME.
JIM'S A GOOD LAD.
BUT HE'S BEEN WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU TWO.
COME ON, I'll TAKE YOU TO HIM NOW.
STRAIGHTAWAY, MUM.
THERE HE IS.
THERE'S JIM.
JIM!
JIM, JIM, JIM!
BLIMEY.
NEVER THOUGHT WE'D FIND YOU.
BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE.
STUPID NIT. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO GO AND GET PINCHED FOR?
I KNEW YOU WOULD TRACK ME DOWN. GIVE US A HUG.
AH, I'M JUST ABOUT TO BOARD ME SHIP.
SHE LEAVES BACK FOR ENGLAND IN A FEW MINUTES.
THE CAPTAIN'S A MATE OF MINE.
HE'LL ONLY BE TOO HAPPY TO LET YOU ON BOARD.
YOU WRETCHED WOMAN, HOW DARE YOU DEFY ME,
SNEAKING AROUND BEHIND MY BACK?
DON'T GO CAUSING NO TROUBLE, ROSS.
IT'S NOT JIM'S FAULT WHAT HAPPENED.
HE'S A GOOD LAD. YOU GOT NO CALL WITH HIM.
YOU'RE GOING TO PAY ME BACK WHAT I GAVE YOU.
FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, ROSS, LEAVE HIM BE.
THE ONLY THING I OWE YOU IS ANOTHER SHOT IN THE MOUTH,
YOU OLD BLIGHTER.
ONE WORD WITH THAT COPPER OVER THERE,
WE'LL SEE WHAT HE SAYS.
NO, ROSS, NO.
LOOK, I DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY TO GIVE YOU.
HAVE A HEART, GUV.
I'll TAKE EVERY PENNY OUT OF YOUR HIDE.
I'll GIVE YOU THE MONEY.
JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE.
THAT AIN'T ENOUGH.
GET BACK HERE.
COME ON, COME ON!
STOP THEM!
KEEP UP, WE'RE ALMOST THERE, LADS.
ON THE SHIP, BOYS, ON THE SHIP.
UP THE PLANK, LADS, COME ON, HUSTLE UP, HUSTLE UP.
STOP THEM!
WHAT'S THIS RUCKUS ABOUT?
THESE ORPHANS COME OVER HERE AND ROB US BLIND.
HAVE YOU STOLEN SOMETHING, LAD?
COME ON.
BACK TO JOLLY OLD ENGLAND, EH, BOYS?
BYE, DAVEY.
GOODBYE. THANKS.
GOODBYE, DAVEY.
THANKS A LOT.
AHEM...
ALL RIGHT, MA'AM, HE'S ALL YOURS.
YES, THANK YOU.
MAY I TALK TO YOU NOW, MISS KING?
IF YOU MUST.
YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE UPSET WITH ME, BUT I PROMISE,
I'll TAKE ODD JOBS AND I'll SHOVEL SNOW ALL WINTER
TILL I PAY YOU BACK THE MONEY.
AND I'll GLADLY TAKE WHATEVER PUNISHMENT YOU SEE FIT
ON TOP OF IT.
[ SIGHING ]
DON'T YOU SEE, IT'S NOT THE MONEY I'M UPSET ABOUT.
IT'S, IT'S WHAT YOU DID.
RECKLESS AND THOROUGHLY IRRESPONSIBLE.
GOING TO HALIFAX.
GRACIOUS PROVIDENCE, YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN KILLED.
AND WHAT AN EXAMPLE TO SET FOR THOSE TWO BOYS.
I'M...SO UPSET.
IT DEFIES DESCRIPTION.
I FEEL...I FEEL IS IF I'VE FAILED IN EVERYTHING
I'VE EVER TRIED TO TEACH YOU.
THAT'S NOT TRUE, MISS KING.
I1 DID WHAT I DID BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU'VE TAUGHT ME.
LOOK...I EVEN USED ONE OF THE ENCYCLOPEDIAS YOU GAVE ME
TO FIND MY WAY TO HALIFAX.
WHAT?
PUT THAT AWAY, DAVEY.
NO, I WILL NOT BE SWAYED BY ANY MORE OF YOUR CLEVER DOUBLE TALK.
IT'S NOT DOUBLE TALK, MISS KING.
YOU'VE ALWAYS TAUGHT ME TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT,
HAVEN'T YOU?
THAT'S WHY I HAD TO KEEP MY PROMISE
TO HELP BRET AND IAN FIND THEIR BROTHER.
HE'S ALL THEY HAVE.
JUST LIKE YOU AND MRS. LYNDE ARE ALL DORA AND I HAVE.
THEY JUST HAD TO FIND THEIR BROTHER.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO DISAPPOINT YOU, MISS KING, BUT I KNOW
WHAT I DID WAS RIGHT, AND I'D DO IT ALL AGAIN IF I HAD TO.
YOU WOULD, WOULD YOU?
WELL, I THINK YOU'LL FIND YOU'LL NOT BE DOING VERY MUCH
OF ANYTHING, DAVEY KEITH, NOT FOR A GOOD LONG TIME.
[ TRAIN WHISTLE SOUNDING ]
NEXT TRAIN NOW BOARDING FOR
THE FERRY TERMINUS.
QUICK, QUICKLY.
ALL ABOARD!
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
DAVEY, A WORD BEFORE WE GO INSIDE.
WHAT YOU DID WAS DEPLORABLE.
AND I'll NOT CONDONE IT FOR A SECOND.
STILL, UH, I DO BELIEVE THAT YOUR MOTIVES WERE TRUE.
BUT IN ORDER TO REGAIN MY TRUST IN YOU, BOY,
YOU'LL HAVE TO HOLD TO YOUR PROMISE
TO PAY BACK MY MONEY, UNDERSTOOD?
IN FACT, AS PROOF OF YOUR GOODWILL TO DO SO,
YOU MAY AS WELL GET STARTED RIGHT AWAY.
HERE.
THANKS, MISS KING.
WHAT? DON'T THANK ME. START SHOVELLING.
GO ON.
MERCIFUL PROVIDENCE, HETTY.
WHAT'S DAVEY GOTTEN HIMSELF INTO NOW?
WHERE'S BRET AND IAN?
THEY'RE WITH THEIR BROTHER SAFE AND SOUND, NO HARM DONE.
BUT I REALLY CAN'T GO THROUGH ALL THAT NOW.
SUFFICE IT TO SAY THAT DAVEY AND I HAVE COME TO AN UNDERSTANDING,
AND WITHOUT BLOODSHED, YOU'LL BE GLAD TO HEAR.
YOU'RE NOT REALLY GOING TO LEAVE THE POOR CHILD OUT THERE
SHOVELLING THE WALK IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT, ARE YOU, HETTY?
HE'S NOT A CHILD ANY MORE, RACHEL.
OUR DAVEY'S GONE AND GROWN UP ON US.
WELL, GOOD.
THEN PERHAPS WE SHOULD BUY HIM A MICROSCOPE.
HOW SILLY.
