Little Princess Sara (1985–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Hajimete no jugyou - full transcript
Emily..
Did you sleep well last night?
It is just the two of us from now on
I am a bit worried, but I will do my best
Wow! Look, Emily!
It's pretty to see the scenery covered in snow
Everyone!
It is time to wake up!
I am so sleepy..
I am as well..
Of course you are sleepy!
That is what you get for talking late into the night about the new student!
But..
Well..
So what? She is just a bit prettier than normal and her father is wealthy
You are making a fuss about nothing! Hmmph
Ermengarde! Wake up!
If you are late to breakfast, Miss Minchin will scold me!
Wake up!
Y-Yes, Headmistress!
Aaah!
Yes? Please come in
Good morning, Mistress
Good morning, Mariette
Did you sleep well last night?
Yes, I guess I did
I have brought a pan of hot water for you to wash your face
Then, I will help you change
Thank you, Mariette
Wow! What a incredible room!
There you go. You look quite pretty in these clothes
Thank you, Mariette
Sara! Sara!
Good morning, Bonaparte
Emily would like to say "good morning” to you as well
Mistress, your hair is still in a mess
Let me brush it for you
I think we played too much
One must be dressed neatly, Emily
I am sorry to keep you waiting, Mistress
It must be hard to brush my hair. I believe it is quite tangled
Oh no, Mistress. I envy your shiny hair
She is really pretty. She is almost like a princess!
She even has a maid changing her clothing!
Even though she may be from a rich family, this is too much!
Stop it. I do not want to hear another word about her
You are late, Ermengarde!
That includes you too, Lottie!
I-I've been scolded again!
If you two keep dilly-dallying, Lavinia is going to get scolded!
How detestable! You keep causing me trouble
The two of you are a handful
Lavinia!
Is everyone present?
Yes, Headmistress
So, Lavinia, please lead us in the morning prayer
Yes ma’am
Dear Lord in heaven, we thank You for blessing this meal
Pear Lord in heaven, we thank You for blessing this meal
Out of Your benevolence, please bless this food to the nourishment..
...of our bodies and our bodies to Your service
Please give us your blessing
Amen
Here you go
Thank you, Mariette
Ermengarde!
The spoon shall not be used to make noise
Y-Yes, Headmistress
The headmistress just scolded me earlier
She wanted you to have your meal with the other students
She said it was a rule of this seminary
Oh my. I thought everyone took their meals in their own rooms
Well, I asked the headmistress if I could personally..
..bring breakfast up to your room just for today
I felt that it would be cruel if you had to eat down with the others on your first day
Mariette, thank you for your concern
However, I will be fine
These are the rules, after all
I believe I can acclimate easily to it
If you say so, I feel a lot easier
Oh, yes. When you are done, the headmistress would like to see you in her office
I understand, Mariette
Good morning, Jump!
Good boy... the snow last night must have been cold, right?
Here, eat this!
Well, we are blessed that we are retained by such a mistress!
Therefore, we must work hard!
Listen, Emily. I am going down for my first day of study soon
So, read the book and quietly stay there
Oh my, Mistress. You talk with your doll
Shh!
To tell you the truth, Emily understands what we are saying
However, I do not want everyone else to know
Oh..
Sara! Sara!
See? Even the parrot speaks, correct?
If you say so, Mistress
Bonaparte, please behave and stay in the room!
So, Mariette, I am off to class
Yes! Do your best, Mistress!
She is so interesting. However, she is so pretty!
U-Umm... I am going to where the headmistress is located
P-Please, could we get along?
Please come in
What are you doing there? Please come in
Y-Yes, ma'am!
Good morning, Headmistress
Good morning. Sara. Please have a seat on the sofa while you wait
Yes, ma'am
Congratulations on your admission here
Starting from today, you will be a student at this seminary
In addition to your studies, you will also learn how to become a perfect lady
You will become accustomed to proper personal appearance and etiquette
Yes, Headmistress
Good. You must respond as clearly as you have done
Yes, Headmistress
You do not have to stand. Please have a seat
Yes, ma'am
Sara..
Uhh..
It was your father's wish that you become a perfect lady before you return to India
Please be mindful that you observe our seminary's rules and traditions
Yes, Headmistress
You must use proper manners
Yes, Headmistress
You must obtain permission from me before leaving the seminary
Yes, Headmistress
You must not run in the hallways
Yes, Headmistress
You must not show displeasure with your food
Yes, Headmistress
This is the book that you will be using for the French class today
Please have a seat in the classroom and review it before class begins
Yes, Headmistress
Hey, is that her?
Hey, Gertrude... look at her feet
Her feet are so dainty that they are almost like the feet on a doll!
They are so not like my large legs that you like to talk about!
It is because of her shoes
A skilled shoemaker can make a shoe that makes large feet look small
That is what Mamma told me
Her hair is so beautiful! It's so straight, but it seems so soft!
You are right! My hair curls naturally, and it is a pain to do my hair every morning
That is because she has a personal maid that helps her brush her hair
Her hair is too dark
If you looked at it closer, it is not even that pretty
Ahh! Get going!
Sara, please come to the front
Yes, ma'am
Everyone, let me introduce a new friend to you
This is Sara Crewe
My name is Sara. It is a pleasure to meet you
Lavinia
Yes, ma'am!
Please point out the location of Bombay, India
Yes, ma'am!
Excellent. Please be seated
In order for her to get an excellent education here at this seminary..
..she took a boat all the way around the Cape of Good Hope to arrive in London
..She took a boat all the way around the Cape of Good Hope to arrive in London
Is that so, Sara?
Uhh... umm..
What is it, Sara?
Please speak clearly
Umm... I actually went through the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea to get here
Well... that is irrelevant right now
I hope that everyone becomes good classmates with Sara
Yes, ma'am!
Sara, please be seated
Ah, Sara... have you perused the book for French class?
Very good. This seminary prides itself on its French curriculum
Your father was very pleased with our course of study
What is it, Sara? Do you wish to say something?
Well... umm... I never really had formal instruction in the French language
Oh my... I wondered what was wrong. You were merely worrying about that
You do not need to worry about that
In general, it is normal for a girl your age to be in that situation
In addition, you grew up overseas, so your education was different
But... uhh..
Well, you do not need to worry!
Just study hard when Master Dufarge arrives
I am confident that you would be proficient with French in a month
The most important secret for fluency in foreign languages is to practice every day
Do you understand, Sara?
Now, let me summon Master Dufarge
Please continue studying quietly
Well, there is someone here who cannot learn anything no matter how hard she tries!
Sara, let me introduce you to the dunce of our seminary
This is Ermengarde, who vexes Miss Minchin to no end with her incompetence at French
Ermengarde, it is nice to meet you
Ah... it is nice to meet you too
Now, let us all introduce ourselves!
Ah... well, I am Jessie! I am probably three years older than you are
I am Gertrude. I am also three years older than you are
It is nice to meet you
Lavina Herbert, She is The head of the class
Her Father has oil fields in America!
It is nice to meet you
Let me introduce the rest of the students
Dolcilla. Her father is a director of a coal mine
Linda. Her father is the chief engineer of a railway company
Crystal. She is from Manchester
Diana. She likes dressing up
Jennifer. She is a mischievous girl
Next is the younger children
Penelope. Her father is a physician
Jane. Her father is a manager for a factory
Susan. Her father is a soldier
Finally..
Lettie, the seminary's biggest crybaby
Waah! I'm being made fun of!
Lottie, how old are you?
I’m four
Sara, when you and your father first came to this seminary, what did Miss Minchin say?
Eh?
"Oh my, what a beautiful young lady”
"She appears to be very well-spoken!"
Eh?
She said that to me too
She says that to every parent that she first meets
She especially says that to rich parents
Therefore, whatever she says about you being beautiful
...or well-spoken should be taken with a grain of salt
That is all I am trying to say
Everyone, take your seats!
"Bonjour, mesdemoiselles." (Hello, ladies.)
"Bonjour, monsieur." (Hello, sir.)
Ah, so who is this child?
Is she my new student for French?
Yes, Master Dufarge
However, she grew up in India, and appears to have a dislike to French
It troubles me
Ah, that is a pity, mademoiselle
You are mistaken! I do not dislike the French language
How am I mistaken?
In addition, you must stand when you address an instructor
In addition, you must stand when you address am instructor
In addition, you must stand when you address an instructor
"Professeur Dufarge..." (Professor Dufarge...)
"Ma mére est francais." (My mother is a Frenchwoman.)
"Ma langue maternelle est le francais." (French is my mother tongue.)
"Je conte vous chose livre est trop facile." (I can tell you this book is easy.)
"Me je ne l'ai pas lu.’ (I have not read it myself.)
"Ooo... oui, oui, oui, mademoiselle! (Oh... yes, yes, yes, Miss!)
Miss Minchin, you heard her just now
Miss Minchin, you heard her just now.
Miss Minchin, you heard her just now
This is what she said
"My mother is a Frenchwoman."
"I grew up learning French.’
"Therefore, the book is too easy for me."
"All the words that are in there I already know”
Oh my!
There is nothing that I can teach this student
Her pronunciation is superb
She is French
W-Why? Why did you hide this from me
I did not mean to hide this from you
I did not know the most suitable means to tell you
Hey, Gertrude! Did you see the look on Miss Minchin's face?
Silence! Silence, everyone!
S-Sara, I cannot forgive you for this!
You... have fooled me all this time!
This is a grave insult to me!
Sara! Sara!
You really did show her, did you?
Miss Minchin does not know how to speak French!
I only understood part of what you said in French!
But, I did not mean to insult the headmistress.
It is too late
Eh?
She is the type of person who holds a grudge for a lifetime
She is very vindictive
Sara? Sara?
Please return to your seat
Y-Yes, sir
Now let us conduct our French class, which is Sara's "worst subject’
Sister, what is wrong?
Nothing is wrong
But the expression on your face..
Ah... are you having another headache? L-Let me get some medicine..
I said that nothing is wrong!
We need to be careful around that child!
Eh?
I am talking about Sara Crewe!
She has been spoiled by her father and her servants
She is so nonchalant after hurting someone
But, I believe that Sara is a good child
Besides, Sister, you said that Sara is an important student of this seminary
I know that!
However, I swear I will break that child into humility! I will personally see to it!
Papa..
Papa...
Did I really insult Miss Minchin?
I wanted her to understand, so I replied in French
In my new classroom, I am studying together with a lot of students..
It is very difficult to find someone honest with their feelings
Then, all of a sudden..
Next time on "A Little Princess Sara"!
"Ermengarde the Good Friend”
Please watch it!
“Himawari”
As I go down the distant road, a song is sung close by
I pick the flowers by the side of the road
To where does the road lead? No one knows
As I move forward, I refuse to look behind me
Being scared originates in my garden
The sunflowers are laughing
It does not matter when I am going to see the sun
Ah it’s Mothers voice...
Ah it’s Fathers voice...
Ah, it’s talking in my ear again...
I am not going to be defeated!
Did you sleep well last night?
It is just the two of us from now on
I am a bit worried, but I will do my best
Wow! Look, Emily!
It's pretty to see the scenery covered in snow
