The Adventures of Swiss Family Robinson (1998–…): Season 1, Episode 23 - Starcrossed Lovers: Part 2 - full transcript
Approximately month fourteen. Ben is now a member of the family group, but David is concerned that he and Joanna are becoming very close. He tries various means to keep them apart, despite Elizabeth's view that the more he tries , the more the young couple will seek to see each other. Billy and Christina are trying to secretly build a raft to explore a nearby river, but David's insistence on them doing school lessons is hampering their progress. Billy tricks Emily into doing the schoolwork for them and the raft progresses. When Billy overhears Ben declaring his love to Joanna, he foolishly tells Christina, who lets it slip at the family dinner table. David is outraged and a confrontation occurs between the father and the young lovestruck youth. Banished from the compound, Ben goes to live in a cave. Billy and Christina's raft voyage is cut short when it falls apart. Having gained dry land the youngsters are confronted by a large wild dog. Ben rescues them and takes them safely home. David is grateful but still cool. Ben comes to Joanna at night and persuades her to leave with him. David sets off in furious pursuit to Ben's cave. Joanna is on her own when she hears her father coming. She retreats into the maze of tunnels leading from the cave and gets lost. Ben and David meet, each convinced that the other has spirited Joanna away. Realising that Joanna is in the tunnel maze, the two antagonists go in search of her. At the tree house Elizabeth starts to give birth. Emily is forced to act as midwife. Joanna is attacked by the wild dog in the tunnels but is rescued by David and Ben. As they emerge they see a ship on the horizon. Ernst is despatched to light the beacon. David and Ben return home to find the baby well, but Elizabeth has a fever. Emily learns of the ship and secretly puts out the beacon. Discovered by Ernst, she explains that seeing Ben and Joanna, and being present at the birth, has changed her mind about entering into the loveless marriage that is her future. She is desperate not to be rescued. Ernst is furious as his mother is ill and feels that the ship may have had a doctor who could have cured her. Distraught, Emily secretly dives down to the wreck of the ship to recover a sealed box of Chinese medicines she is convinced will cure Elizabeth. She is menaced by a shark, but is saved by Ben. And all the family celebrate and thank the dear Lord (and Emily) for saving Elizabeth's life upon Emily's return to the tree house. The Chinese medicines work and both Mother - and baby - survive. Elizabeth tells David that Ben may lack social refinement but that is irrelevant - he is a good and dutiful man and would make a great husband for Joanna. David agrees and is reconciled with Joanna and Ben - and the star-crossed lovers can now get married.
I'm going to have a baby?
Don't you mind marrying
someone much older than you?
- We marry whoever our.
- Parents choose for us.
- DAVID ROBINSON: He's.
- Not right for Joanna.
He's uneducated.
He's a common sailor.
I love you.
- Were you alone or with Ben?
- I...
- [GASP]
- Mama?
- The more you try.
- To keep them apart,
The more they are going
to try to be together.
A cave?
- I want you to.
- Marry me, Joanna.
- They're getting married.
- [GASPS]
- DAVID ROBINSON:
- I want your word,
Joanna, that you will not longer
spend time with him alone.
Do I have your word?
[THEME MUSIC]
Yes, sir.
Good.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[MOUSE SQUEAKING]
[CRYING]
Maybe your father is right.
Ben is very different from you.
It's the things that are
different that I like so much.
I know he is the
only one for me.
EMILY CHEN: How can you know?
Because I love him.
That's why.
Don't you understand?
EMILY CHEN: No.
I don't understand
that kind of love.
It's as if whenever I'm around
him, nothing else matters.
There'll never be any else.
I can't be like you and
marry someone I don't love.
I'd rather die first.
[CRYING]
Billy, I've been thinking.
What?
Well, Ben and Joanna
are getting married...
[SHUSHING]
Well, Ben and Joanna are
getting married, yes?
Yes.
And Mama and Papa
are married, right?
Right.
That leaves Ernst and Emily,
and they could get married.
So?
We could get married.
You and me?
What's the matter?
Don't you want to get married?
I need time to think about it.
All right.
Have you done the
work for Ernst yet?
No.
I've been busy.
Well, when are
you going to do it?
[SCREAMING]
Now.
Joanna?
Joanna?
What is it?
I cannot speak to you.
What?
Papa has forbidden me
to be alone with you.
What?
Why?
- Did you tell him.
- We're to be married?
No.
Well, then I shall tell him
myself and set this straight.
No.
I fear what he might do.
I don't.
Ben, please.
Don't provoke him.
- Am I supposed to.
- Sit at family supper.
Tonight and pretend none
of this has happened?
Have patience.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Look.
How did you do it?
Never mind.
DAVID ROBINSON: Billy?
Christina?
- Heavenly Father, we.
- Thank You for the bounty.
Of this table, which You have
seen fit to bestow upon us.
- Amen.
- Amen.
Amen.
Well, Ernst, I want to
thank you for cleaning
out the water barrels.
I'm very grateful.
Oh, thank you, Father.
- DAVID ROBINSON: And the.
- Crops are in fine condition.
I know you've all
worked very hard.
Especially you, Joana.
- [SCREAMING]
- [MICE SQUEAKING]
- Get out.
- Get them away.
[BARKING]
- DAVID ROBINSON: Strange that.
- There should be so many.
I haven't seen a nest anywhere.
- Over there.
- Perhaps that's it.
EMILY CHEN: Get them away.
[GASPS]
Calm down, Emily.
They've, uh, gnawed
their way out of this trap.
- Trap?
- What?
- Has someone been.
- Trapping rodents.
And bringing them in here?
Oh, oh, that's absurd.
Who would do such a thing?
He would.
Emily.
He put them in my bedroom
and made me do his homework
for taking them away.
Billy, is this true?
Billy?
I'm sorry.
Christina?
Did you have any part in this?
She had nothing
to do with it, sir.
I see.
- Well, what do you have.
- To say for yourself?
Please, Papa,
don't punish him.
He only did it to
get our boat finished
so we'll have somewhere to
live when we get married.
[LAUGHTER]
Married.
It's not funny.
Don't laugh.
- You don't laugh.
- At Ben and Joanna,
And they're getting married.
Don't be silly, Christina.
- Of course they're.
- Not getting married.
Yes they are.
Billy heard them.
Is this the truth?
You, sir, it is.
Joanna.
Then why do I hear about it
from the mouth of my youngest
child and not from you?
We did not feel it was the
right time to tell you, sir.
Tell me?
I was to be informed
of your, uh, decision?
Is that it?
No, sir.
- Then what?
- More lies?
More deceit?
No, father.
Be quiet.
Let me make it perfectly
clear that there
can be no possibility whatsoever
of you getting married.
- It's a preposterous.
- Idea, and the sooner.
- You drop it, the better.
- Why?
Because you're unsuited
to one another, that's why.
Well, with respect,
sir, we disagree.
I'm as good as husband
as ever she will find.
With respect, sir.
You are not.
Joanna has already
accepted my proposal.
- Which she cannot do.
- Without my consent,
And I absolutely forbid it.
Joanna?
Joanna, go inside.
BEN THOMAS: Joanna?
- DAVID ROBINSON:
- Joanna, do as I say.
Go inside.
- BEN THOMAS: Don't worry, Joanna,
- I won't let them harm you.
- Are not to speak.
- With my daughter again.
And if you hurt her, sir,
then you'll answer to me.
How dare you speak to
me that way, young man?
- Get out of here.
- Get out at once.
What right do you have
to give me such an order?
Ben, please.
I'll show you what right.
Stop it.
That's enough, the pair of you.
Ben, you'd better go.
Please, Ben.
Do as she says.
- DAVID ROBINSON: I have.
- Nothing more to say.
ELIZABETH ROBINSON: David...
Enough.
No, it is not enough.
You have treated boy abominably.
Elizabeth, the boy's
a liar and a deceiver.
Because you have
forced him to become one.
Nonsense.
He attacked me.
Only because he thought
you were attacking him.
- Well, whatever he.
- Thought, he's gone.
And as far as I'm concerned,
it's good riddance.
[SIGHS]
- ERNST ROBINSON.
- (VOICEOVER): It was ironic.
How talk of marriage
between Joanna and Ben
- put a terrible strain on Mother.
- And Father's own marriage.
But the greatest strain
was on Ben, who could not
bear the thought of
losing his beloved Joanna,
a sentiment shared,
in turn, by Father.
[WATER SPLASHING]
I'm not sad anymore that we're
not allowed to get married.
Are you?
No.
Why?
Because we could live on
the raft anyway, with Bruno.
This one?
No.
We'll have to build
a bigger one, silly.
What?
Look, there's some big bamboo
over there you could use.
Wow.
Oh, look at these ones.
Christina, behind you.
[GROWLING]
[SCREAMING]
[GROWLING]
Go away.
Go on.
Go away.
Shoo.
[SNARLING]
- [WHIMPERING]
- Shoo.
Get out of here.
Go on, get out.
[SPLASHING]
[WHIMPERING]
Are you all right?
It was horrible.
Come one.
Let's get your home
before it comes back.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Mama.
Mama, a wolf tried to eat us.
But we scared it away.
And Ben helped.
- Christina, what are.
- You talking about?
It's true.
Tell her, Ben.
- They ran into a wild.
- Dog down by the river.
I heard Christina shout
and got there just in time.
He hit it with a
stone from his sling.
Perfect shot.
It seems I must thank you
for saving one of my daughters.
I was glad to be in service.
Won't you stay and
eat something with us?
No, thank you.
I must be going.
Ben, I regret what
happened between us.
I'd like to put it in the past.
Where's Joanna?
I'm afraid that's
none of your concern.
You holding her prisoner?
Ben, let's not have
another argument.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[HOWLING]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Come with me.
I wanted to come to you before.
I knew there'd be more trouble.
- Then when I saw.
- You this afternoon,
I couldn't stay away any longer.
I wanted to come to you, too.
But I didn't dare.
Then come with me now.
Where?
Come and stay at the cave
till they say we can be married.
JOANNA ROBINSON: I can't.
Not now.
Not with the baby and Christina.
They need me here.
Joanna, there'll
never be a good time.
You could spend your whole
life waiting on their wishes.
It's your life, not theirs.
You've got to choose.
And if I choose not?
Then I'd have to
leave the Ireland.
I couldn't stay here any longer.
I'd have to take
the boat and go.
Surely you would die?
I'd rather risk dying
then not be with you.
I couldn't bear it.
Then whenever I choose,
it can only cause pain.
That's why you must
choose for yourself.
It's dawn.
They'll be awake soon.
What do you say?
Johanna?
I'll come.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
DAVID ROBINSON: I have something
very unpleasant to tell you.
Ben has persuaded Joanna,
no doubt against her better
judgment, to go away with him.
I don't know anything
of Ben's whereabouts
in the last few days.
It's of no concern to me.
But if any of you know anything,
now is the time to tell me.
Ernst?
Uh, no, Father, I don't know.
Very well.
Emily?
I don't know, either.
Billy?
No, sir.
I don't know.
Are you sure?
Yes, sir.
- DAVID ROBINSON: What.
- About you, Christina?
Well?
[SQUAWKING]
I'm not sure, Papa.
Christina, if you
know anything at all,
you must tell me.
But...
Christina, you must
tell me what you know.
[CRYING]
It's all right, sir.
I know where they are.
Welcome home.
- It's not much yet,
- but we'll make.
It every bit as good as
the tree house and better.
Joanna?
What is it?
I can't help
thinking of my mother,
when she reads the note.
There.
I'm sorry.
- But if they won't give.
- Us the life we want,
- Then we have to take.
- It for ourselves.
It's easy for you to say
that, but they're my parents.
I love them, too.
Joanna, we're here.
We've done it.
We can't go back now.
Why not?
We just can't.
Am I a prisoner then?
No, of course not.
Why are you saying
these things, Joanna?
Because of the pain
I'm causing them.
And me, too.
Don't shout at me.
I'm not shouting.
It's just driving
me mad, Joanna.
How do you think I feel?
I'm sorry.
, Please let's not quarrel.
Please, Ben, I need
some time alone to think.
I'm hungry.
Would you find me
something to eat?
Perhaps you should
take Ernst with you.
Ernst has enough to do here.
I won't be very long.
Please, David, they're young.
I'm sure they meant no harm.
Then let's hope
no harm's been done.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Ben?
Bring my daughter out now.
I know you're here somewhere.
If you won't come
out, I'm coming in.
Joanna?
Are you in here?
Wherever you are, you
can't hide her forever.
Joanna?
Joanna?
[SIGHS]
This is stupid.
[SIGHS]
I have to face him.
Joanna?
Ernst, you wait at the
entrance to the cave.
I'll take Bruno and
search this area here.
Sooner or later he'll
have to show himself.
Sooner than you think, David.
Where are you keeping her?
Please, no fighting.
Insolent young dog.
Don't play games with me.
Where's my daughter?
- If you harm one.
- Hair on her head...
How dare you threaten me?
Tell me where she is.
Wait.
Ben, are you saying
you don't have Joanna?
Yes, ma'am.
Where is she?
She's not here.
That's the truth.
We thought she was with you.
[BARKING]
Ben?
Father?
Help me.
Help me.
Help.
Help.
I don't understand.
She said she'd wait.
- She can't have.
- Vanished into thin air.
I'll find her.
I care about Joanna more than
you can possibly imagine.
- If you care about.
- Her so much, how.
Could you lose her so easily?
[SIGHS]
- ERNST ROBINSON (VOICEOVER):
- While Joanna was last.
Deep within the cave, and.
Father and Ben were united,
at least in their search
for her, back at the tree
house another Robinson
decided unexpectedly to make
his or her presence felt.
[GASPS]
Uh, I don't mean
to alarm anyone,
but I think the baby's coming.
BEN THOMAS: Joanna?
Joanna, where are you?
We'll find her, Ben.
Wherever she is, Bruno
will catch her scent.
No, I'll find her.
Ben?
I know you care for my
daughter, but can't you see how
different the two of you are?
We're not as different
as you may think.
Here, perhaps.
- But when we get.
- Home, how long will.
You feel when people
laugh at you both?
Why should they laugh at us?
Is there something
funny about me?
No, Ben, but the
world is the way it is.
And I know that a
marriage between a sailor
and a young lady of breeding
is a recipe for unhappiness.
But I love Joanna.
If you loved her,
you'd spare her the pain
such a marriage would bring.
[DOG WHINING]
[BARKING]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SNIFFING]
What have you found, Bruno?
Fresh blood.
[DOG WHINING]
Joanna?
Joanna?
Lord, please save me.
[PANTING]
Is the baby coming now?
No.
Soon.
If David is delayed, I may
need you to be my midwife.
Can you manage that?
I'll try.
Don't worry.
I'll show you what to do.
[PANTING]
It's a tunnel.
Joanna?
Can you hear me?
Joanna?
Ben?
Ben, is that you?
Did you hear that?
Yes, I did.
Joanna, we're coming.
I'm here.
Ben, remember what I said.
Don't make her choose
between you and her family.
JOANNA ROBINSON: Ben?
She's calling for me.
[DOG BARKING]
[PANTING]
Now, listen, the
baby is coming.
When you see the head, hold
it and help the baby out.
Can you do that?
Yes.
Of course I can.
[PANTING]
She'll be all right.
She's got Emily.
What does she
know about babies?
But your mother does.
She's had three of you already.
She must know what she's doing.
[GROANING]
Can you hear me?
[GROWLING]
[BARKING]
[GROWLING]
[BARKING]
Joanna?
THEME SONG: Time to go.
Our ship is leaving.
No time for breathing,
life goes on.
When I see we're on
the same side fighting,
then it's time to leave.
Should have known how
the rain was falling.
Now we love so much more,
'cause that's what life's for.
Get away.
We should get away.
This is the moment that, day
by day, the world will go away.
With you by my side,
I know what is right.
And I will stay with you if
you decide we should get away.
Get away.
Get away from it all.
[PRODUCTION MUSIC]
Don't you mind marrying
someone much older than you?
- We marry whoever our.
- Parents choose for us.
- DAVID ROBINSON: He's.
- Not right for Joanna.
He's uneducated.
He's a common sailor.
I love you.
- Were you alone or with Ben?
- I...
- [GASP]
- Mama?
- The more you try.
- To keep them apart,
The more they are going
to try to be together.
A cave?
- I want you to.
- Marry me, Joanna.
- They're getting married.
- [GASPS]
- DAVID ROBINSON:
- I want your word,
Joanna, that you will not longer
spend time with him alone.
Do I have your word?
[THEME MUSIC]
Yes, sir.
Good.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[MOUSE SQUEAKING]
[CRYING]
Maybe your father is right.
Ben is very different from you.
It's the things that are
different that I like so much.
I know he is the
only one for me.
EMILY CHEN: How can you know?
Because I love him.
That's why.
Don't you understand?
EMILY CHEN: No.
I don't understand
that kind of love.
It's as if whenever I'm around
him, nothing else matters.
There'll never be any else.
I can't be like you and
marry someone I don't love.
I'd rather die first.
[CRYING]
Billy, I've been thinking.
What?
Well, Ben and Joanna
are getting married...
[SHUSHING]
Well, Ben and Joanna are
getting married, yes?
Yes.
And Mama and Papa
are married, right?
Right.
That leaves Ernst and Emily,
and they could get married.
So?
We could get married.
You and me?
What's the matter?
Don't you want to get married?
I need time to think about it.
All right.
Have you done the
work for Ernst yet?
No.

Well, when are

But I didn't dare.
Then come with me now.
Where?
Come and stay at the cave
till they say we can be married.
JOANNA ROBINSON: I can't.
Not now.
Not with the baby and Christina.
They need me here.
Joanna, there'll
never be a good time.
You could spend your whole
life waiting on their wishes.
It's your life, not theirs.
You've got to choose.
And if I choose not?
Then I'd have to
leave the Ireland.
I couldn't stay here any longer.
I'd have to take
the boat and go.
Surely you would die?
I'd rather risk dying
then not be with you.
I couldn't bear it.
Then whenever I choose,
it can only cause pain.
That's why you must
choose for yourself.
It's dawn.
They'll be awake soon.
What do you say?
Johanna?
I'll come.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
DAVID ROBINSON: I have something
very unpleasant to tell you.
Ben has persuaded Joanna,
no doubt against her better
judgment, to go away with him.
I don't know anything
of Ben's whereabouts
in the last few days.
It's of no concern to me.
But if any of you know anything,
now is the time to tell me.
Ernst?
Uh, no, Father, I don't know.
Very well.
Emily?
I don't know, either.
Billy?
No, sir.
I don't know.
Are you sure?
Yes, sir.
- DAVID ROBINSON: What.
- About you, Christina?
Well?
[SQUAWKING]
I'm not sure, Papa.
Christina, if you
know anything at all,
you must tell me.
But...
Christina, you must
tell me what you know.
[CRYING]
It's all right, sir.
I know where they are.
Welcome home.
- It's not much yet,
- but we'll make.
It every bit as good as
the tree house and better.
Joanna?
What is it?
I can't help
thinking of my mother,
when she reads the note.
There.
I'm sorry.
- But if they won't give.
- Us the life we want,
- Then we have to take.
- It for ourselves.
It's easy for you to say
that, but they're my parents.
I love them, too.
Joanna, we're here.
We've done it.
We can't go back now.
Why not?
We just can't.
Am I a prisoner then?
No, of course not.
Why are you saying
these things, Joanna?
Because of the pain
I'm causing them.
And me, too.
Don't shout at me.
I'm not shouting.
It's just driving
me mad, Joanna.
How do you think I feel?
I'm sorry.
, Please let's not quarrel.
Please, Ben, I need
some time alone to think.
I'm hungry.
Would you find me
something to eat?
Perhaps you should
take Ernst with you.
Ernst has enough to do here.
I won't be very long.
Please, David, they're young.
I'm sure they meant no harm.
Then let's hope
no harm's been done.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Ben?
Bring my daughter out now.
I know you're here somewhere.
If you won't come
out, I'm coming in.
Joanna?
Are you in here?
Wherever you are, you
can't hide her forever.
Joanna?
Joanna?
[SIGHS]
This is stupid.
[SIGHS]
I have to face him.
Joanna?
Ernst, you wait at the
entrance to the cave.
I'll take Bruno and
search this area here.
Sooner or later he'll
have to show himself.
Sooner than you think, David.
Where are you keeping her?
Please, no fighting.
Insolent young dog.
Don't play games with me.
Where's my daughter?
- If you harm one.
- Hair on her head...
How dare you threaten me?
Tell me where she is.
Wait.
Ben, are you saying
you don't have Joanna?
Yes, ma'am.
Where is she?
She's not here.
That's the truth.
We thought she was with you.
[BARKING]
Ben?
Father?
Help me.
Help me.
Help.
Help.
I don't understand.
She said she'd wait.
- She can't have.
- Vanished into thin air.
I'll find her.
I care about Joanna more than
you can possibly imagine.
- If you care about.
- Her so much, how.
Could you lose her so easily?
[SIGHS]
- ERNST ROBINSON (VOICEOVER):
- While Joanna was last.
Deep within the cave, and.
Father and Ben were united,
at least in their search
for her, back at the tree
house another Robinson
decided unexpectedly to make
his or her presence felt.
[GASPS]
Uh, I don't mean
to alarm anyone,
but I think the baby's coming.
BEN THOMAS: Joanna?
Joanna, where are you?
We'll find her, Ben.
Wherever she is, Bruno
will catch her scent.
No, I'll find her.
Ben?
I know you care for my
daughter, but can't you see how
different the two of you are?
We're not as different
as you may think.
Here, perhaps.
- But when we get.
- Home, how long will.
You feel when people
laugh at you both?
Why should they laugh at us?
Is there something
funny about me?
No, Ben, but the
world is the way it is.
And I know that a
marriage between a sailor
and a young lady of breeding
is a recipe for unhappiness.
But I love Joanna.
If you loved her,
you'd spare her the pain
such a marriage would bring.
[DOG WHINING]
[BARKING]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SNIFFING]
What have you found, Bruno?
Fresh blood.
[DOG WHINING]
Joanna?
Joanna?
Lord, please save me.
[PANTING]
Is the baby coming now?
No.
Soon.
If David is delayed, I may
need you to be my midwife.
Can you manage that?
I'll try.
Don't worry.
I'll show you what to do.
[PANTING]
It's a tunnel.
Joanna?
Can you hear me?
Joanna?
Ben?
Ben, is that you?
Did you hear that?
Yes, I did.
Joanna, we're coming.
I'm here.
Ben, remember what I said.
Don't make her choose
between you and her family.
JOANNA ROBINSON: Ben?
She's calling for me.
[DOG BARKING]
[PANTING]
Now, listen, the
baby is coming.
When you see the head, hold
it and help the baby out.
Can you do that?
Yes.
Of course I can.
[PANTING]
She'll be all right.
She's got Emily.
What does she
know about babies?
But your mother does.
She's had three of you already.
She must know what she's doing.
[GROANING]
Can you hear me?
[GROWLING]
[BARKING]
[GROWLING]
[BARKING]
Joanna?
THEME SONG: Time to go.
Our ship is leaving.
No time for breathing,
life goes on.
When I see we're on
the same side fighting,
then it's time to leave.
Should have known how
the rain was falling.
Now we love so much more,
'cause that's what life's for.
Get away.
We should get away.
This is the moment that, day
by day, the world will go away.
With you by my side,
I know what is right.
And I will stay with you if
you decide we should get away.
Get away.
Get away from it all.
