Bonanza (1959–1973): Season 14, Episode 12 - First Love - full transcript

Jamie becomes friends with Kelly Edwards, who is abused by her husband, Dan. The catch: the husband happens to be the new teacher at the Virginia City School, and he quickly becomes unpopular because he belittles the students. Soo...

The following program is

brought to you in living color
on NBC.

The spring starts right back there.

Water comes out of the ground,
ice-cold, sweet, pure.

- Would you like a drink?
- I'd love one.

You're putting Mr. King
to a lot of trouble.

No, no. My pleasure.

Have you seen
any of our local wildflower?

Thank you.

My good wife, the lovely
Kelly Edwards is at it again.

Dan, no, he was just being nice,
and I was simply being polite.



Polite.

That's not what I call it.

He's a man, and what you see
is another conquest.

Dan, please, this is exactly

what you promised me
would not happen again.

That's why we came out here.

Please don't make a scene.

You're right, it's a pretty lake.

How far is it to the Ponderosa?

A couple of miles, but it's all uphill.

I don't know what I ever saw in Hack.

He's not as good looking as you.

And when it comes to brains,
he's not even in your class.

You sure things between
you and Hack are finished?



He could crawl down this dusty street
and I wouldn't even look.

Well, it's just that
Hack's one of my friends

and I'd hate for anything to happen.

Hack's nobody's friend.

Hack only rode me home
for my mother's sponge cake.

It's awfully good. You'll see.

But then all Hack ever thinks
about is his stomach.

You're not like that, I can tell.

You know, I've wanted to do this
for ever so long.

Really?

Eloise! Get off that horse!

Hack, get out of here.
I don't even hear you.

Hack, stop!

Hack! Hack, stop!
It won't do you any good.

I'm not your girl,
and I never will be again.

Ow, stop it!

Well, you may not know you're my girl,
but Jamie's gonna know it.

What were you doing
riding Alice home?

Well, Alice is my cousin.
My ma makes me do it sometimes.

Eloise!

Members of our board are...
Are just as delighted as I am,

but they, uh...
They are curious as to...

Jamie?

Excuse me.

Good heavens, what happened?

I... I'm sorry, Pa, I fell.

Oh, you sure did.

Well, come on over
and say hello to our new teacher.

They'll be staying with us for a while.

Mr. Edwards, this is my son, Jamie.

- How do you do?
- How do you do, sir?

Nice to meet you.

- And, uh, Mrs. Edwards.
- How do you do, ma'am?

Did you win, Jamie?

No, I...

I guess not, sir.

Well, that's nothing
to be concerned about.

I give top marks for subjects,
not fisticuffs.

Don't let him fool you, Jamie.

He hasn't given a top mark
to anybody in his life.

The best you'll ever get
is a "satisfactory."

Well...

Well, let's get you
in satisfactory shape.

No, I'm... I'm all right, Pa.
I'll do it.

If you folks will excuse me.
It was nice meeting you.

You know, Ben, I lost a lot of fights
in that same school.

Now, you were saying...

Oh, yes, I was, uh...

Well... the members of the board are...

I suppose it's only normal, they...

They're wondering why you would
leave teaching at Yale

to come back to Virginia City.

Well, I came back here
because I grew up here.

And I wanted Kelly to see it.

Yes, we came back here
because Dan wants to see

if I'm fit to be a rancher's wife.

That's right.

In the city, we're on her ground.
Here, we're on mine.

And, as the, uh, lawyers say,

I am willing to stipulate
that I am totally incompetent.

Helpless.

I can't ride a horse,
or milk a cow, or...

Well, Dan, you tell Mr. Cartwright
all the things that I can't do.

Excuse me.

May I help you?

Uh, thank you. I can manage.

- I'll be very gentle.
- No, really, I'm almost finished.

How did it happen?

Oh, uh, it's not that interesting.

You can never tell
what'll interest a woman.

Well, it...

It was sort of a misunderstanding.

You see, there was this girl,
Eloise, and...

It's really not worth going into.

You had a fight over a girl?

Yeah, sort of.

That's very romantic.

No, not at all.

Eloise told me that Hack,
her old boyfriend,

were finished, and...

- And they weren't?
- No.

She just used me
to make Hack jealous.

Well... girls
do things like that sometimes.

Yeah.

Maybe that's a good reason
not to trust 'em.

Excuse me.

- Well, there you go, Mr. Edwards.
- Thank you.

Dan, I've told you,
I'm scared of horses.

Then why did you buy the outfit
if you didn't intend to ride?

I did intend. Besides, I liked
the way I looked in it.

Whoa, whoa.

Now, this time, just hold him tighter.

I'm right beside you.
There's nothing to be afraid of.

Kelly, horses are really stupid,

but they can sense
if you're frightened of them.

I'm terrified.

I told you, Kelly,
there's no need to be.

Now, come on. Here.

Come on. Come on.

Whoa, boy.

Now, put your foot in the stirrup.

That's it. Now grab the saddle.

There you go.

Okay.

I never feel secure
with anything I can't charm.

I'm aware of that.

Dan, I was joking.

- Come on, Kelly.
- Dan...

Anybody can ride a horse.
I'm just gonna walk you around.

Dan, let me down.

Give yourself a chance.

Dan, please let me down.

Whoa.

Thank you.

You've got to get back on.

You can't stop now.
It'll be harder tomorrow.

I've been patient, Kelly.
Now, are you getting back on?

I'm going to ride
over to the Andrews place.

Dan.

Dan, I'll do it.

Dan?

Ma'am... I'll take her.

Oh, thank you.

I'm frightened of her.

Have you ever heard
of anything so silly?

No, everyone's frightened
of what they don't know.

Oh, I can't afford to be.

You know that we've rented
the old Andrews ranch?

And a rancher's wife should know
how to ride a horse, shouldn't she?

Well, yes, ma'am, but you'll learn.

How?

Well, I could teach you.

That would be a chore, Jamie.

And besides,
you have other things to do.

No, I'd be happy to.

But it's such a big favor to ask.

I have no way to repay you.

Now, it seems to me that everyone's
always showing me how to do things.

Be fun for me to show
someone else for a change.

Well, I must warn you,
I'm a very slow learner.

Oh, I'm not too sure

I can teach you very fast,
either, but, uh...

Tell you what, first thing
after school tomorrow,

I'll have a couple of horses
saddled up and we'll begin.

I'd love to surprise Dan.

Ride out and meet him someday.

Well, you will.

Once I was back east,

I discovered that my education
was second rate.

See, I'd not really learned...

Very pretty flowers.

Who brought them?

Is it a secret? Who brought them?

Well, whoever it was, thank you.

But if you expect to improve
your grades with flowers,

I warn you, it won't work.

Anyway, I made up my mind
that if I ever came back here to teach,

I'd do a better job for my students.

And perhaps if any of you
ever want to go to Yale,

it'll be easier.

Who the heck wants to go to Yale?

Of course
you don't want to go to Yale.

You don't want to go to school
at all, do you?

That's the first thing
you've said I agree with.

Well, hurrah for me.

You're Gene Erber, right?

Right.

Well, Mr. Erber,
why don't you write 500 words

on why I should go to school
and why I don't want to.

Why don't you go jump? I won't do it.

How are you gonna make me?

How you feel?

I'd like to get down.

Oh.

The only way you're going to
get used to

the feel of a horse
is to be on a while.

Sit up straight. That's it. Feel better?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

- It's really not so bad, is it?
- No, of course not.

And pretty soon you're going to
be using his reins,

and then it'll even be better

because you have
control of the horse.

Well, Mrs. Edwards,
it looks like you made a friend.

Okay, you're on your own.

Oh, when does it...
When does it stop bouncing?

It's not bouncing, Kelly. You are.

- Well, how do I stop?
- Relax.

- Oh, I did it! I did it!
- You sure did.

Come on, Jamie. Hah! Hah!

- Now, let's see if you like butter.
- Do I?

- You do.
- I do? Let's see if you like butter.

- All right.
- Yeah, you do.

You know, if you think
this stream is something,

you ought to see Tahoe.
It is really beautiful.

Oh?

- Any law against movin' closer?
- Yeah, there is.

Well, you can listen,
but you better not look.

- Oh, good. Are you gonna join us?
- Sure.

- Good. What shall we play first?
- Uh, well, let's see.

Why don't I begin,
and you can see if you can follow.

- All right.
- All right? Okay. Here goes.

Faster.

Come on, you can go faster than that.

Faster?

Kelly?

I'm finished with my work.
Are you ready for bed?

Yes, I was coming.

Good night.

Good night. It was great.

Hey, Jamie, uh, you're getting
better all the time.

Oh...

- It sounded good.
- She's awfully good.

Boy, I had a hard time
keeping up with her.

She sure is good.

Well...

Uh, what about your homework?

Oh, I've already done it, Pa.

All right.

Ready for bed?

Well, in a little while.

It's kinda nice out tonight.

I think I'll stay out here for a while.

All right.

Yeah, I'm gonna turn in, too.

- Good night, Joe.
- See you in the morning.

All right.

- Good night, Jamie.
- Good night.

Kelly?

Good looking man,
young Joe Cartwright, isn't he?

Dan, please, not again.

No, no, just commenting.

There are hundreds of thousands
of good looking men in this world.

I'm married to you.

I thank God you are.

I need you, Kelly.

Kelly?

You're very gentle.

It's very fragile.

I was watching your father
with a mustang the other day.

He was very gentle, too.

I guess it runs in the family.

Yeah, well, you know, you can
break a mustang or gentle him.

My Pa believes in gentling him,
so do I.

That's true of people, too.

My father wasn't gentle.
He was kind, but not gentle.

Strange, he was very,
very hard to please.

I used to knock myself out
trying to win a kind word from him.

And it didn't happen very often,
I can tell you.

But when it did, when he praised me,

I felt so proud my heart could burst.

Here, hold that a minute.

Oh, no, no. I'll hurt her.

Oh, now you couldn't hurt anything.

Now, you see, Jamie,
you've just made me feel very proud.

Well, it's only the truth.

Well, maybe that's what my husband

and my father
have been trying to tell me.

My trouble is
I don't do anything very well.

Oh, I can't believe that.

Do we have to put the bird
in the cage?

Yes, but only to protect it.

- For its own good, huh?
- Right.

There you go. Take it easy.

There you go.

I don't believe it. How did it happen?

Jamie deserves all of the credit.

Well, he certainly does.

He succeeded where I failed.

What's your secret, young man?

He's gentle, kind and smart.

Bring some of that
to school with you, will you, Jamie?

I'm trying.

Don't let him scare you.

If you need any help
with your homework, come to me.

Congratulations, Mrs. Edwards.

I'm very proud of you, Kelly.

Now, Gene Erber, as between
"I and Sam went to the woods,"

and "me and Sam went to the woods,"
which would you say?

"Me and Sam."

Hack?

I'd stick with my brother.

- Lew?
- Me, too.

I see.

Well, Gene, why do you prefer
"me and Sam?"

- It sounds better.
- Oh?

And what do you say, Jamie?

Well, I don't agree with either of them.

I mean, uh, it's "Sam and I,"

because "I" went to the woods,
not "me" went to the woods.

Uh, the verb calls for a subject.

Precisely.

And now, may I remind you all
that this was the lesson for today,

and that this same subject
was discussed last week.

All right, ladies and gentlemen,
let's try it again.

As between "you and I,"

and between "you and me,"
which would you say?

Hack Erber?

Why don't you ask somebody else?

I'm asking you, Hack.

Okay, "between you and I."

Do you have any reasons
for your choice,

or does it just sound better?

They're both the same,
between you and I. "You and I."

Your reasoning is as faulty
as your English.

You will write
"between you and me" 100 times.

And since you all stick together,

Lew and Gene,
you two will do the same.

You find that amusing, Jamie?

Uh, no, sir. I...

We've had it.
We're going to fix him.

- And today.
- You with us or not?

I don't know. What are you gonna do?

First you got to tell us. You with us?

We ain't gonna take no more of it.

"Aren't," Mr. Lew, not "ain't."

Look, you won't accomplish anything.

He's just gonna find out
who you all are,

and then you'll really be in trouble.

Are you yellow?

Am I...

If you call five against one brave,
yes, I'm yellow.

Hold him.

I got him.

- Jamie?
- Uh-huh.

You all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.
I got a horse over here.

Well, here, wait a minute.

Help me pick up these papers,
will you?

- Papers?
- Yeah.

- Is my math test in here?
- Oh, for goodness sakes, Jamie.

Anyplace we can clean up?

I don't want Kelly to see me like this.

- Yeah, over at the bunkhouse.
- Oh! Oh, boy.

My knee really got stomped on.
I think it was when I was down.

You know who they were, Jamie?

Uh... I, uh...

It doesn't matter, Jamie. I do.
I'll take care of it.

Jamie?

Dan, where have you been?
We've been so worried about you.

Good heavens,
what happened to you?

We were unavoidably detained.

Jamie and I were a little outnumbered.

Yeah, it sure looks it.

Let's go in the kitchen.

What's the matter? You two fight?

You two fight? Very bad! Very bad!

Hop Sing,
we'll explain everything later.

Right now we need some hot water.

Hot water on the stove.

All right, bring some
up to Jamie's room.

Jamie, you go on up to your room.
I'll be up there in just a minute.

Kelly, you help Jamie,
I can take care of myself.

Come on.

Um, all right, now, who was it?

A few of my students.

Well, I guess a meeting of
the school board will fix that up...

I'm quite able to manage
the discipline.

I assure you they won't try it again.

- All right?
- Yeah.

Lie down.

We have to clean that.

- Am I hurting you?
- No. No.

You're the one who's gentle.

That's because I want to be.

Why did they attack Dan?

Well...

Does he strike them?

Well, sometimes they deserve it.

No, I just think it's, uh...

Well, he makes fun of them...

It... It's like he really
doesn't like them, you know?

This will sting.

Sorry.

It's worth it
to have you take care of me.

No, it isn't.

And you certainly didn't
think so that first afternoon

when I tied to help you.

Well, that was different.

Uh, I didn't know you then.

You don't know me now.
Sometimes I don't know myself.

Well, I think I know you.

Perhaps you do.

You're a very sensitive young man.

So are you.

I mean, woman.

And you're beautiful, too.

Now, you stop that.

You're going to give me
a swollen head.

I already have one.

There, that's to make it all better.

Isn't that silly, I can't find room
for all these things.

She's been up since 4:00,
and we're still packing.

Well, he wants me to be up early,

charming and organized
all at the same time.

Kelly, this is for you.

Oh, Jamie, thank you, but not now.
Could you take care of her for me?

- Sure, be happy to.
- But you know what?

Your checkerboard and checkers,
I'd like to borrow those.

Checkers?

Now, when are we going to have
time to play that?

I'll get 'em, all right?

Ah, here we are.

Something to hold you until
you get that stove of yours working.

Oh, thank you, Ben, Hop Sing.

Ben, I'm just in love with you
and your whole family.

You're marvelous people.

I'll second that.

Ben, we're very grateful. Thank you.

And, of course
you're all invited to supper

as soon as we get settled in.

Well, we'll look forward to that.

- Here, Kelly.
- Thank you, Jamie.

And you, young man,
you're welcome anytime.

Thank you, sir.

Here, let me give you a hand here.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

I'm gonna miss 'em.

So will I.

Jamie!

What happened to you?

Oh, nothin'.

Who are you taking to the dance?

Dance? Uh, I don't know,

- I don't know if I'm going.
- Of course you are.

It's the biggest dance of the season.
Everyone's coming.

And just for your information,
I'm not seeing Hack anymore.

And this time it's cross my heart
and hope to die true.

Howard's asked me,
but I haven't said yes yet.

Uh, well, I haven't decided myself.

Well, hurry up.
It's going to be great fun.

And I love to dance.

And I wouldn't mind
walking outside with you either.

Well, I haven't decided yet.

- Welcome.
- Thank you. How's it coming?

- Terribly.
- Terribly?

Yeah.

I started to plant flowers.

I wanted boxes all along there,
and then I remembered

that Dan told me to plant tomatoes,
so I start that.

Then the cow mows,
and I remember I have to milk her.

And then the chickens start,

and I can't remember
if I've fed them or not.

Is there any way you can tell
if you've fed chickens or not?

By lookin' at 'em? No, I don't think so.

So, anyway, Dan comes home

and everything is half done
or not done, and he gets angry.

Well, he's right, I guess.

Well, I'm here to help.

Oh, Jamie, you're the answer
to a lady's prayer.

Now, what would you
like to start with?

Would you like to milk the cow,
sweep floors, chop kindling...

- I think I'll start with the kindling.
- Okay.

Where do you want the milk?

I have a can.

But I haven't scoured it yet.

Oh, where is it? I'll scour it for you.

Oh, Jamie, I'm really
such a bad housewife.

I don't know how Dan puts up with me.

Well, it seems to me
you got a lot accomplished.

Let's have our milk and cake,

and I'll scour and you can rest
and tell me how wonderful I am.

- Well, you are.
- Come on.

Tell me, what...
What's New Haven like?

Well, it's a college town.

And, of course everything
centers around the college,

but it's pretty.

It's got a little bit of green,
but not like this, of course.

That sounds nice.

- I'll get the door.
- All right.

- Can you manage?
- Yes.

Hey, you're getting pretty good at that.

I should be.
I've had four days' practice.

Well, hello.

Look around you.

It's getting to look more like a home.

Thanks to Jamie, who's helped
all week, we've got a lot done.

Well, it sure looks a lot better.

Oh, I see you got the flowers in.

Very pretty.

Thanks for the help, Jamie,
but don't neglect your homework.

- How is school?
- It's okay.

Well, if you need any help
with your homework, you come to me.

Oh, you've got too much to do.

Not so much I can't help you.

Are you going to the school dance?

Dan is, so are three of my apple pies
and my potato salad.

But I don't think I am.

Tell you the truth, Jamie,
I'm just too tired.

Ah, well, things'll be easier
once you get things organized.

Organized? You are an optimist.

Oh, well, I'll still come by
after school and help you.

You'll see, things'll be organized.

- You mean it? You really mean it?
- Sure I mean it,

unless, of course,
you'd rather I didn't come.

Jamie, you're
the one friend I have here.

I could never see too much of you.

- Then I'll be here.
- Good.

Dan, I am not going,
and that's all there is to it.

I haven't washed my hair,

and I don't have
a clean dress to wear.

May I ask why don't you?

You left me a list of chores.

I've been doing those,
or at least trying to.

I don't believe
that's the real reason, Kelly.

Well, then you tell me what is.

You're punishing me because

I don't like for you to dance
with other men.

Even if I don't dance,
something happens. It always does.

It happens because
you make it happen.

All right, so I'm avoiding it.

Kelly, listen.

Maybe appearances are more
important in these western towns

than they should be.

It doesn't matter how you look.
It's just important that you be there.

If you're not there, there'll be talk.

Nothing like the talk there'll be
after you make a scene.

If you behave, there won't be a scene.

Apparently you can't help it.

If a man speaks to me,

if he just so much as looks at me,
you get angry.

I don't know, Dan,
I'm just too tired to go through it.

You keep talking as if
my suspicions had no basis in fact.

They don't!

How many times do I have to tell you?

We weren't married then,
we weren't even engaged.

You'd dropped me.

I was too much of a city girl
for you, remember?

I never expected to see you again.

- You knew I'd come back!
- I didn't.

I was all in pieces.
The man was kind to me.

- We'll talk about it in the morning.
- We'll talk about it right now!

I didn't do anything wrong
and you know it.

You were in his arms!

Oh, my father warned me, "She's
too beautiful, it'll be nothing..."

Your father?

You want a marriage like that?

That's what I'm talking about.

Oh, so a man's going to come
here the minute you leave.

Is that what you're thinking?
That's why I'm staying home?

Look at me!

Am I dressed to receive?

Do I look like a woman
who's expecting her lover?

Dan, please!

Ugh!

Well, I had to see for myself.
Mary keeps raving about you.

You're so bright, so handsome.

I, uh... I guess you know
she has a crush on you.

No, ma'am.

Well, I can't blame her.

Of course she's only 13,

but she's very mature
for her age, don't you think?

Absolutely, Mrs. Williams.

- Emily.
- Emily.

Where's your wife?
I want to meet her.

Well, she wanted to come.

She was looking forward to it,

and at the last moment,
she was taken ill.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Grace Winkum said she wouldn't
be here, but I didn't believe it.

I said no, and who would let a man
as handsome as Dan Edwards

come to a dance by himself.

Mary!

- Jamie, what are you doing here?
- Hi, Kelly.

Well, you said if I ever needed
any help with my homework.

You didn't go to the dance?

- No.
- Come in.

At your age, with all those
young girls, and the music...

Well, you said
you might not be going, so...

And you came
all this way on that chance?

Sit down.

Well, I'm very glad
to see you. Very glad.

Oh, thank you.

What would you like to start
with first? Math, English, History?

Uh, why don't we start with Math?

All right, and if we get through
in good time,

we'll have a game of checkers.

Oh, fine.

Let me see.

Kelly?

Dan, how was the dance?

Oh, Jamie was here earlier.
We were going over his homework.

In fact, he left his pencil case here.
Would you take it...

Jamie?

Dan, you know Jamie. He's a boy.
You don't really bel...

I don't believe. I know.

- You know what?
- Kelly, he loves you.

The boy's in love with you.

Oh, nonsense, Dan!

We're friends, that's all.

I don't want him here again.

I know he's been
help and company to you.

But it has to stop, Kelly,
and right now.

It's true, if you're right.

But what will I tell him, Dan?

He's been nothing
but a comfort and a help.

I don't care what you tell him.

Tell him there's talk
about you in town.

- That's a lie.
- There is talk about you.

You tell him I don't want him
here again, or I'll tell him.

Hi, Kelly.

Want to show you my math test.

- How did you do?
- Very well.

Why don't I chop
the kindling first and...

No, not now. We have to talk.

This is going to hurt you.

But I have to say it.
You can't come here anymore.

What have I done?

It's not what you've done
or what you haven't done.

You've been wonderful.

A help and a comfort.
It's what I've done.

I've let something happen.

I don't...
I don't know what you mean.

You know what I mean, Jamie.

Jamie!

Jamie, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Hyah! Hyah!

Kelly, I thought I told you
to tell him goodbye.

- That's what I did.
- I saw what you did.

Jamie.

Hopin' I'd find you here.

S... Something you want me
to do, Pa?

Well, boy...

I got this note for you.

Dear, dear Jamie,
I'm going away tomorrow.

Jamie, please, don't come
to see me, I beg you.

This note is to say goodbye.

I couldn't leave without thanking you
for all your help and understanding.

Your friend, Kelly.

Sure is a pretty place.

I'm, uh...

I'm glad you found this place
to come to.

I have one particular place I go to
when I have something on my mind.

Everybody should have
a place where they can

be alone... and think.

Would it help any to talk about it?

You know...

Loving somebody...

And losing them...

That hurts...

Even when you know
it's impossible, it hurts.

But that's part of living.

I guess it's happened
to just about everybody.

Part of being a man.

But to love...

To give...

To care for someone...

That's part of living, too.

The hurt... eventually will fade away.

But the warmth...

The loving...

You'll have it...

When you find someone to... give it to,

someone you want to stay with
for the rest of your life.

Pretty soon the...

The hurt will fade away...

And the love will stay.

I don't suppose that...

what I'm saying
makes too much sense to you now.

But it will.

It will.

You come home, Jamie...

When you're ready to.

Kelly?

Kelly... Kelly, I had to come.

I just had to say goodbye, Kelly.

What do you want?

- I had to talk to you and tell you...
- Tell me?

There's nothing
a 16-year-old boy can tell me.

Get out of here.

There you go, you're doing it again.

That's what's wrong
with you, Mr. Edwards.

Part of what's wrong with you,
you never listen.

I'm not interested
in your opinion, Jamie.

You never even asked me
why they bushwhacked you.

Why those kids tried
to pound you into the ground.

All right.

Why?

Because you're a rotten teacher.

Oh, you could be good
because you're brilliant.

But, Mr. Edwards,
brilliance is not enough.

You've got to have patience, too.

Just because you know a lot,

well, everybody just isn't
as fast as you are.

Sometimes they're slow, or clumsy.

So you whack 'em.

Even if they're really trying,
you whack 'em.

That's why they hate you.

All right, you've made
your little speech. Now get out.

When I'm through.

You are through.

You hit us with a ruler,
but what do you hit your wife with?

Get out of here, Jamie,
before I throw you out.

You made fun of her
just like you make fun of us.

Just... Just because she couldn't
ride a horse or chop wood,

or things that don't even matter!

Well, I'll tell you.

She's good,
and she's kind, and she's beautiful.

Everybody loves her.

I went to your house earlier today.

She told me not to, but I went anyway.

And I saw just what you did to her.

Shut up.

She thought you were so great.

That's the crazy part about it,
she thought you were so great!

She did everything she could.

Using your fists
on somebody as nice as her.

What kind of a man are you?

I pity you.

Missy Edwards, good to see you.

Nobody home now, only Jamie.

Well, will you please
tell him that I'm here?

Yes. Yes.

Jamie!

Comb hair, fix shirt.

You have lady visitor downstair.
Missy Edward.

No, Hop Sing, I can't see her.

Look, tell her I'm not home.
Tell her that.

How?

- You go out window?
- No.

Hop Sing already tell her you home!

Hop Sing, tell her anything,

- but just don't let her know I'm...
- May I come in?

Excuse me.

I had to bring these back.

I couldn't really leave
without saying goodbye,

especially after
what happened yesterday.

Dan's gone already. I...

I don't know where.

And I'm going home.

Jamie, I owe you so much.

I just couldn't leave
without thanking you again.

One day you will find a girl

who will understand
all the things you are.

Your gentleness,
understanding, concern.

And you know
that I'll never forget you.
