[00:03] Anne
    What sort of people will I be
    living with from now on?
[00:07] Spencer
    The Cuthberts, a brother and sister.
[00:12] Spencer
    Their homestead is called Green Gables,
    and it's surrounded by big trees.
[00:19] Anne
    How wonderful! I adore trees.
[00:24] Spencer
    Don't worry.
[00:26] Spencer
    Be a good girl, and they're sure to keep you.
[00:30] Spencer
    You don't want to go back to
    the orphan asylum, do you?
[00:32] Anne
    No.
[00:35] Anne
    Green Gables is on
    Prince Edward Island!
[00:38] Anne
    I've heard it's the prettiest
    place in the world!
[00:45] Spencer
    What are you doing?
[00:46] Spencer
    Hurry along!
[00:47] Anne
    Oh, sorry!
[00:49] Anne
    I can't believe it!
[00:51] Anne
    I'm really going to live on
    an island blooming with flowers!

[01:11] Spencer
    Excuse me! Stationmaster!
[01:14] Stationmaster
    How can I help you, ma'am?
[01:15] Spencer
    May this child wait in the station house?
    Mr. Cuthbert will come for her soon.
[01:21] Stationmaster
    Yes, that's quite all right.
[01:23] Spencer
    Be a good girl and wait.
[01:26] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Spencer, how can
    I possibly thank you?
[01:36] Stationmaster
    You can sit in the waiting room.
[01:39] Anne
    If you don't mind...
[02:03] Matthew
    Stationmaster.
[02:04] Stationmaster
    Oh, Matthew.
[02:06] Matthew
    Where's the train?
[02:07] Stationmaster
    It's come and gone.
[02:09] Stationmaster
    More importantly, that girl's
    been waiting on you a long time.
[02:13] Stationmaster
    I said should could sit in the waiting room,
[02:15] Stationmaster
    but she said she had "more scope
    for imagination" outside.
[02:18] Stationmaster
    She's a case, I'd say.
[02:22] Anne
    Excuse me!
[02:23] Anne
    Are you Mr. Cuthbert?
[02:25] Matthew
    I... I am.
[02:27] Anne
    I'm very glad to meet you!
[02:29] Anne
    I was afraid you weren't coming,
[02:31] Anne
    and then I imagined
    what might have happened!
[02:35] Anne
    I decided I'd spend the night in that
     big cherry tree if you didn't come today.
[02:41] Anne
    I wouldn't be a bit afraid,
[02:44] Anne
    and it would be lovely to sleep
[02:46] Anne
    in a wild cherry-tree all white with
    bloom in the moonshine, don't you think?
[02:50] Anne
    And I was quite sure you would come for
    me tomorrow if you couldn't today!
[02:59] Matthew
    I'm sorry I was late.
[03:03] Matthew
    The buggy's over...
[03:05] Matthew
    Oh, I'll take your bag.
[03:06] Anne
    That's fine. I can carry it.
[03:08] Anne
    It's all my worldly goods,
    but it isn't heavy!
[03:12] Anne
    Oh, I'll be living with
    you from now on, won't I?
[03:28] Marilla
    Ah, Rachel.
[03:29] Lynde
    I saw Matthew riding out earlier.
[03:32] Lynde
    Is he going to the doctor's?
[03:34] Marilla
    No, to the station.
[03:37] Marilla
    We're getting a little boy
    from an orphan asylum.
[03:41] Lynde
    Are you in earnest, Marilla?
[03:43] Lynde
    You've never raised a child!
[03:44] Marilla
    We've been thinking
    about it for some time.
[03:47] Marilla
    Matthew is getting up in years,
     and it's desperate hard to get hired help.
[03:51] Lynde
    Marilla! To think you'd do
    such a mighty foolish thing,
[03:55] Lynde
    bringing a strange child
    into your house and home!
[03:58] Marilla
    With discipline, I daresay
    he'll turn out all right.
[04:01] Lynde
    One orphan asylum girl put strychnine
    in the well. I read it in the paper!
[04:06] Marilla
    No fear of that!
[04:08] Marilla
    We're getting a boy,
[04:10] Marilla
    not a girl.
[04:14] Anne
    Mr. Cuthbert, Mr. Cuthbert.
[04:17] Anne
    What does that tree—the white and lacy one
    leaning out from the bank—make you think of?
[04:22] Matthew
    I dunno.
[04:24] Anne
    A bride, of course!
[04:25] Anne
    A bride all in white with
    a lovely, misty veil.
[04:32] Anne
    Aren't these roads funny?
[04:34] Anne
    What makes them red?
[04:36] Matthew
    Well now, I dunno.
[04:39] Anne
    Well, that is one of the
    things to find out sometime.
[04:43] Anne
    Isn't it splendid to think of
    everything there is to know?
[04:46] Anne
    It just makes me feel glad to be alive.
[04:50] Anne
    It's such an interesting world.
[04:58] Anne
    It wouldn't be half as interesting
    if we knew all about everything.
[05:03] Anne
    There'd be no scope for imagination.
[05:04] Anne
    Am I talking too much?
[05:07] Anne
    I can stop when I make up my mind to it.
[05:10] Matthew
    I don't mind.
[05:12] Anne
    Oh, I know you and I are going
    to get along just fine!
[05:18] Anne
    People laugh at me
    because I use big words.
[05:22] Anne
    But if you have big ideas you have to use
    big words to express them, don't you think?
[05:28] Matthew
    That seems reasonable.
[05:32] Anne
    I heard your place is named Green Gables.
[05:37] Anne
    Is there a brook anywhere near it?
[05:40] Matthew
    There's one right below the house.
[05:43] Anne
    Fancy! It's always been one of
    my dreams to live near a brook.
[05:47] Anne
    Right now, I feel pretty
    nearly perfectly happy.
[05:51] Anne
    But I can never feel
    exactly perfectly happy.
[05:55] Anne
    What color would you call this?
[05:57] Matthew
    It's red, ain't it?
[05:59] Anne
    Yes. Now you see, don't you?
[06:02] Anne
    I can imagine my skinniness away,
    but not that red hair.
[06:07] Anne
    "Now my hair is a glorious,
    wavy black!" I tell myself...
[06:16] Anne
    But I know it's just plain red.
[06:24] Anne
    Mr. Cuthbert?
[06:26] Anne
    Mr. Cuthbert! Mr. Cuthbert!
[06:51] Matthew
    I guess you're getting
    to feeling pretty hungry.
[06:55] Anne
    Mr. Cuthbert, that white place we
    came through—what was it?
[07:01] Matthew
    You must mean the Avenue.
[07:03] Matthew
    It is kind of pretty.
[07:06] Anne
    Oh, "pretty" doesn't go far enough.
[07:09] Anne
    Nor beautiful, either.
[07:10] Anne
    It's the first thing I ever saw
    that imagination couldn't improve.
[07:16] Anne
    They shouldn't call that
    lovely place the Avenue.
[07:20] Anne
    How about the White Way of Delight?
[07:23] Anne
    Isn't that a nice, poetic name?
[07:25] Matthew
    Sure.
[07:27] Anne
    Other people may call that place the Avenue,
[07:31] Anne
    but I shall always call it
    the White Way of Delight.
[07:36] Anne
    What's that?
[07:37] Matthew
    That's Barry's pond.
[07:39] Anne
    I shall call it...
[07:41] Anne
    the Lake of Shining Waters.
[07:47] Anne
    What a jolly sound.
[07:48] Anne
    I love the way the wheels rumble.
[07:52] Anne
    Isn't it splendid there
    are so many things to like?
[07:58] Matthew
    Home's just over this hill.
[08:02] Anne
    Oh, I'm so happy, but I'm sad too.
[08:05] Anne
    Our wonderful ride is nearly over.
[08:09] Matthew
    There. You can see it now.
[08:12] Matthew
    That's Green Gables over—
[08:14] Anne
    Wait! Let me guess.
[08:28] Anne
    There!
[08:29] Anne
    That's it, isn't it?
[08:30] Matthew
    Yes, you've guessed it.
[08:34] Anne
    As soon as I saw it, I felt it was home.
[08:37] Anne
    Oh, it seems as if I must be in a dream!
[08:40] Anne
    That's going to be my home, isn't it?
[09:14] Marilla
    Where is the boy?
[09:18] Marilla
    Who's that?
[09:21] Marilla
    Matthew!
[09:22] Matthew
    There wasn't any boy.
[09:25] Matthew
    There was only her.
[09:27] Marilla
    But why?
[09:28] Matthew
    I don't know. A mistake came in somewhere.
[09:32] Matthew
    But I couldn't leave her there,
    even if it was a mistake.
[09:39] Marilla
    Good heavens.
[09:42] Anne
    You don't want me!
[09:44] Anne
    I might have expected it!
[09:47] Anne
    All because I'm not a boy.
[09:49] Anne
    It was all too beautiful.
[09:51] Anne
    I might have known it wouldn't last.
[09:55] Anne
    Nobody ever did want me.
[09:59] Anne
    I've never had anybody waiting for me.
[10:03] Anne
    Oh, what shall I do?
[10:11] Marilla
    Well, well, there's no
    need to cry about it.
[10:14] Anne
    Yes, there is!
[10:15] Anne
    If you were an orphan and had come to a
    place you thought was going to be home,
[10:19] Anne
    only for them to say, "Who's that?
    We don't want her because she isn't a boy."
[10:24] Anne
    You would cry, too!
[10:31] Marilla
    Well, don't cry any more.
[10:32] Marilla
    We're not going to turn
    you out-of-doors tonight.
[10:36] Marilla
    What's your name?
[10:38] Anne
    Will you please call me Cordelia?
[10:42] Marilla
    Cordelia? Is that your name?
[10:45] Anne
    No, but I would love to be called Cordelia.
[10:48] Anne
    It's such a perfectly elegant name.
[10:54] Marilla
    I don't know what you mean.
[10:55] Anne
    Please do call me Cordelia!
[10:58] Marilla
    What's your real name?
[10:59] Anne
    Anne.
[11:00] Anne
    Anne Shirley.
[11:02] Marilla
    Anne. A good, plain, sensible name.
[11:05] Anne
    It's so unromantic.
[11:07] Anne
    If you do call me Anne,
[11:08] Anne
    please call me Anne spelled with an e.
[11:14] Marilla
    What difference does it
    make how it's spelled?
[11:16] Anne
    Such a difference. It looks
    so much more distinguished.
[11:20] Marilla
    Tell me, then, Anne spelled with an e.
[11:24] Marilla
    Were there no boys at the asylum?
[11:27] Anne
    There were, but Mrs. Spencer
    said that you wanted a girl.
[11:35] Anne
    Why didn't you tell me at the
    station that you didn't want me?!
[11:39] Anne
    It wouldn't be so hard if I hadn't
    seen the White Way of Delight
[11:43] Anne
    and the Lake of Shining Waters!
[11:47] Marilla
    What on earth is she talking about?
[11:49] Matthew
    She... She's just referring to
    some conversation we had on the road.
[11:57] Matthew
    She must be hungry.
    Would you get supper ready?
[12:05] Marilla
    You're not eating anything.
[12:07] Anne
    I'm in the depths of despair.
[12:09] Anne
    Can you eat when you are
    in the depths of despair?
[12:12] Marilla
    I can't say.
[12:15] Marilla
    I've never been in the depths of despair.
[12:18] Anne
    Did you ever try to imagine you were?
[12:21] Marilla
    No.
[12:22] Anne
    Then I don't think you can
    understand what it's like.
[12:24] Anne
    When you try to eat, a lump goes
    in your throat, and you...
[12:29] Marilla
    I suppose you have a nightgown?
[12:31] Anne
    Y-Yes.
[12:33] Anne
    It's fearfully skimpy.
[12:35] Anne
    But one can dream just as
    well in any nightgown.
[12:39] Anne
    That's one consolation.
[12:40] Marilla
    No more chatter.
[12:43] Marilla
    Undress as quick as you can and go to bed.
[12:54] Marilla
    Really. She just threw them on the floor.
[13:05] Marilla
    Goodnight.
[13:07] Anne
    Goodnight?!
[13:09] Anne
    You know it must be the very
    worst night I've ever had!
[13:21] Marilla
    I thought you gave that up.
[13:23] Matthew
    I can't stand this without it.
[13:27] Marilla
    I'll drive over and see
    Mrs. Spencer tomorrow.
[13:31] Marilla
    We must send this girl
    back to the asylum.
[13:33] Matthew
    I suppose so, though she's a
    real interesting little thing.
[13:39] Marilla
    Matthew! You don't mean to say
    you think we ought to keep her!
[13:43] Marilla
    What good would she be to us?
[13:47] Matthew
    None, but we might
    be some good to her.
[13:55] Marilla
    Matthew, I believe that
    child has bewitched you!
[13:59] Matthew
    Well now, you should have heard
    her talk on our way from the station.
[14:08] Matthew
    She'd be company for you.
[14:13] Marilla
    I'm not suffering for company!
[14:16] Marilla
    And I'm not going to keep her.
[14:20] Matthew
    You always talk sense.
[14:28] Matthew
    Goodnight.
[15:15] Anne
    The world seemed such a
    howling wilderness last night.
[15:19] Anne
    I'm so glad it's a sunshiny morning.
[15:23] Anne
    But I like rainy mornings, too.
[15:26] Anne
    All sorts of mornings are interesting.
[15:28] Anne
    There's scope to imagine what's
    going to happen through the day.
[15:31] Matthew
    Mm-hmm.
[15:32] Marilla
    For pity's sake, hold your tongue and eat.
[15:39] Anne
    I'll wash the dishes.
[15:40] Marilla
    Oh? Can you wash them right?
[15:42] Anne
    Pretty well. I'm better at
    looking after children, though.
[15:46] Anne
    It's such a pity you haven't any here.
[15:52] Marilla
    More children? You're problem enough.
[16:00] Marilla
    Good enough. Go amuse yourself
    out-of-doors till we leave.
[16:03] Anne
    Thank you!
[16:13] Marilla
    What's the matter?
[16:15] Anne
    I don't dare go out.
[16:17] Anne
    If I can't stay here, there is
    no use in me loving Green Gables.
[16:24] Anne
    If I go out and get acquainted with the
    flowers and the brook and the Snow Queen,
[16:29] Anne
    I'll not be able to help loving it.
[16:32] Marilla
    What Snow Queen?
[16:33] Anne
    The cherry tree outside my
    bedroom window. I named it.
[16:38] Marilla
    Where's the sense in naming a tree?
[16:41] Anne
    Sense? There isn't any.
[16:43] Anne
    Only that I feel I can get to
    know them better that way.
[16:46] Anne
    Would you like to be called nothing
    but a woman all the time?
[16:53] Marilla
    She is kind of interesting.
[16:55] Marilla
    I'm already wondering what
    on earth she'll say next.
[16:59] Marilla
    But I can't let her
    cast a spell over me, too.
[17:02] Marilla
    Matthew!
[17:23] Anne
    I've made up my mind to enjoy this drive!
[17:27] Anne
    I can always enjoy things if I make up
    my mind to. It's one of my virtues.
[17:31] Anne
    Look!
[17:32] Anne
    There's an early wild rose out!
[17:34] Anne
    Isn't it lovely? Isn't pink the
    most bewitching color in the world?
[17:39] Anne
    But it's such a shame!
    Redheaded people can't wear pink.
[17:44] Anne
    Has there ever been a case where a redheaded
    girl's hair changes when she grows up?
[17:48] Marilla
    Not that I've ever heard of.
[17:51] Anne
    Well, that is another hope gone.
[17:54] Anne
    My life is a perfect
    graveyard of buried hopes.
[17:57] Anne
    Are we going across the
    Lake of Shining Waters today?
[18:00] Marilla
    We're going by the shore road.
[18:02] Marilla
    As you're bent on talking, you might
    as well tell me about yourself.
[18:07] Anne
    My history isn't worth telling.
[18:10] Marilla
    It's better than your imaginings.
[18:12] Marilla
    Where were you born, and how old are you?
[18:15] Anne
    I turned eleven last March.
[18:18] Anne
    I was born in Nova Scotia.
[18:20] Anne
    My father's name was Walter Shirley,
    and my mother's was Bertha.
[18:24] Anne
    They kept a little house in Bolingbroke,
[18:28] Anne
    Mother and Father died soon after
     I was born, so I don't remember it,
[18:36] Anne
    but I've imagined it thousands of times.
[18:39] Anne
    When I was washing dishes
    in Mrs. Thomas's house,
[18:43] Anne
    when I looked after Mrs. Hammond's
    three pairs of twins...
[18:47] Anne
    Thousands of times.
[18:49] Anne
    Thousands of times.
[18:50] Anne
    Thousands.
[18:59] Anne
    That little house must have had lilies
    of the valley just inside the gate,
[19:03] Anne
    with honeysuckle over the windows
    and muslin curtains in all of them.
[19:09] Anne
    I was born in that house.
[19:15] Anne
    Mr. Hammond died and
    Mrs. Hammond broke up housekeeping.
[19:20] Anne
    Nobody would take me after that,
    so I had to go to the asylum.
[19:28] Marilla
    Were those women—Mrs. Thomas
    and Mrs. Hammond—good to you?
[19:33] Anne
    Yes, but...
[19:35] Anne
    It's trying to have a drunken
    husband and all the rest.
[19:41] Anne
    Still, I know they meant
    to be good and kind to me.
[19:48] Anne
    Aren't those gulls splendid?
[19:51] Anne
    The way they swoop away out over the water.
[19:55] Anne
    Would you like to be a gull?
[19:58] Anne
    I think I would.
[20:03] Spencer
    Dear, dear. You don't say so!
[20:06] Spencer
    My brother Robert sent the word
    down by his daughter Nancy,
[20:10] Spencer
    and she said you wanted a girl.
[20:13] Spencer
    Didn't she, Flora?
[20:15] Flora
    She certainly did!
[20:17] Spencer
    Oh, that Nancy!
[20:20] Marilla
    Can we still send the
    child back to the asylum?
[20:25] Spencer
    Oh, Mrs. Blewett was saying how much
    she wanted a little girl to help her.
[20:31] Spencer
    Anne will be the very girl for her.
[20:34] Spencer
    And Mrs. Blewett is here again today!
[20:42] Spencer
    Take a seat there, Miss Cuthbert.
[20:44] Spencer
    Anne, you sit here.
[20:45] Spencer
    Mrs. Blewett, we've found
    just the girl for you.
[20:57] Blewett
    How old are you?
[21:00] Anne
    I'm eleven years old.
[21:02] Blewett
    And your name is?
[21:06] Anne
    Anne Shirley.
[21:10] Blewett
    Heh. You don't look as if there's
    much to you. But you're wiry.
[21:14] Blewett
    If I take you, you'll have to
    be good and smart and respectful.
[21:18] Blewett
    I'll be feeding you,
[21:20] Blewett
    so I'll expect you to earn your keep.
[21:25] Spencer
    That's settled, then.
[21:27] Blewett
    I'll take her off your hands, Miss Cuthbert.
[21:30] Blewett
    If you like, I can take her home right now.
[21:33] Marilla
    Well, I don't know.
[21:34] Marilla
    I didn't say that Matthew and I had
    decided that we wouldn't keep her.
[21:41] Marilla
    I just came over to find out
    how the mistake had occurred.
[21:42] Spencer
    Oh, really.
[21:46] Marilla
    I think I'd better take her home
    again and talk it over with Matthew.
[21:51] Marilla
    Will that suit you, Mrs. Blewett?
[21:55] Blewett
    I s-suppose it'll have to.
[22:03] Anne
    Did you really say you'll
    talk with Mr. Cuthbert?
[22:06] Anne
    Or did I only imagine that you did?
[22:08] Marilla
    You'd better control your imagination if
    you can't tell what's real and what isn't.
[22:14] Marilla
    Yes, I did say just that.
[22:16] Marilla
    It isn't decided yet, mind you.
[22:23] Matthew
    I wouldn't give a dog
    I liked to that Blewett woman!
[22:31] Marilla
    But it's that or keeping her ourselves.
[22:36] Marilla
    I've never brought up a child,
    especially not a girl.
[22:42] Matthew
    True enough, but she's such
    an interesting little thing.
[22:48] Marilla
    I'd rather she was a
    useful little thing.
[22:51] Matthew
    You've got that backwards.
[22:54] Matthew
    We're going to be useful to her.
[23:01] Anne
    Gracious Heavenly Father,
[23:03] Anne
    I thank Thee for all Thy blessings.
[23:07] Anne
    As for the things I want,
     I only have time to name two.
[23:11] Anne
    First, please let me be
    good-looking when I grow up,
[23:15] Anne
    and please let me stay here
    at wonderful Green Gables!
[23:29] Anne
    Yours respectfully, Anne Shirley.

[00:15] Anne
    Um...
[00:16] Matthew
    Do you have a favorite sweet, Anne?
[00:20] Anne
    Chocolate caramels, I suppose.
[00:31] Anne
    Oh, please, won't you tell me if you
    are going to send me away or not?
[00:37] Anne
    Please tell me.
[00:39] Anne
    I cannot bear not knowing any longer.
[00:44] Marilla
    You didn't scald the dishcloth
    in clean hot water.
[00:48] Marilla
    And you stand daydreaming in the field.
[00:50] Marilla
    You must do your part before
    you ask any more questions.
[00:55] Marilla
    Well, Matthew and I
[00:58] Marilla
    have decided to keep you.
[01:01] Marilla
    That is, if you will try
    to be a good little girl.
[01:06] Marilla
    Why, whatever is the matter?
[01:09] Anne
    I'm crying. I can't think why.
[01:10] Anne
    I'm glad as glad can be. Oh, glad
    doesn't seem the right word at all.
[01:14] Anne
    It's something more than glad.
[01:17] Anne
    I'll try to be so good!
    I'll do my very best!
[01:20] Anne
    However, it will be
    uphill work, I expect.
[01:25] Anne
    There are glad tears as well

    as sad ones, aren't there?
[01:29] Anne
    And these are truly glad ones!

    Pretty Things
[01:51] Anne
    Here's a big bee just
    tumbled out of a flower.
[01:55] Anne
    Just think what a lovely place to live.
[01:57] Marilla
    That's a Scotch rose.
[02:00] Marilla
    Matthew's fond of those flowers.
[02:03] Marilla
    Our mother planted them.
[02:05] Anne
    Your mother, Miss Cuthbert?
[02:08] Marilla
    I had a mother the same as anybody.
[02:12] Marilla
    And you'll call me just plain Marilla.
[02:16] Anne
    I'd love to call you Aunt Marilla.
[02:19] Anne
    It would make me feel as if
    I really belonged to you.
[02:21] Marilla
    No.
[02:23] Marilla
    I'm not your aunt.
[02:26] Anne
    I understand.
[02:29] Anne
    But I'm free to call you anything
    in my imagination, aren't I?
[02:32] Marilla
    Do as you like.
[02:33] Anne
    Well then, Marilla, I'll just go and
    say good morning to the brook.
[02:39] Marilla
    You'll trip and fall in all that rush!
[02:41] Anne
    No, I won't!
[02:51] Marilla
    Good morning, Rachel!
[02:54] Lynde
    Oh, Marilla!
[02:57] Marilla
    How are you feeling?
[02:58] Lynde
    I never dreamed I'd be
    laid up two weeks in bed.
[03:02] Lynde
    But what about that child? A girl, you say?
[03:06] Marilla
    Yes. Matthew took a fancy to her,
    and we decided to keep her.
[03:11] Lynde
    There's no guessing how a
    child like that will turn out.
[03:15] Marilla
    I must say I like her, myself.
[03:18] Marilla
    And when I make up my mind to
    do a thing, it stays made up.
[03:22] Anne
    Marilla!
[03:24] Lynde
    So that's her, is it?
[03:26] Lynde
    They didn't pick you for your looks,
     that's sure and certain.
[03:29] Lynde
    She's terrible skinny and homely,
    and with red hair too!
[03:35] Lynde
    A regular carrot patch!
[03:37] Lynde
    Yes, hair as red as carrots!
[03:47] Anne
    I hate you!
[03:49] Anne
    I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!
[03:52] Marilla
    Anne!
[03:54] Anne
    How dare you call me skinny and ugly?!
[03:57] Anne
    How dare you say
     I'm freckled and redheaded?!
[04:00] Anne
    How would you like to have
    such things said about you?
[04:03] Anne
    To be told that you are fat and clumsy and
    haven't a spark of imagination in you?!
[04:07] Anne
    I don't care if I do hurt
    your feelings by saying so!
[04:12] Anne
    You have hurt mine worse than
    they were ever hurt before!
[04:14] Anne
    And I'll never forgive you for it!
[04:16] Anne
    Never, never!
[04:23] Marilla
    Anne, go to your room.
[04:25] Marilla
    And stay there until I come up.
[04:35] Lynde
    Did anybody ever see such a temper!
[04:38] Marilla
    You shouldn't have twitted
    her about her looks, Rachel.
[04:42] Lynde
    Marilla, you don't mean to say
    that you are upholding her?
[04:47] Marilla
    No, I'll have to give her
    a talking to about it.
[04:52] Marilla
    But you were too hard on her!
[04:57] Lynde
    Well, I see that I'll have to be
    very careful what I say after this,
[05:00] Lynde
    since the fine feelings of orphans have
    to be considered before anything else.
[05:05] Lynde
    I'm not vexed. I'm too sorry
    for you to leave any room for anger.
[05:10] Lynde
    Well, good evening!
[05:12] Lynde
    I've never been insulted in such a fashion!
[05:16] Lynde
    Never!
[05:25] Marilla
    Anne, get off that bed this minute.
[05:29] Marilla
    Anne!
[05:33] Marilla
    This is a nice way for you to behave.
    Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
[05:37] Anne
    She hadn't any right to
    call me ugly and redheaded.
[05:41] Marilla
    You hadn't any right to fly at her.
[05:44] Marilla
    You say it yourself often enough.
[05:46] Anne
    But there's such a difference
    hearing other people say it.
[05:49] Marilla
    You must go to Rachel and
    tell her you are very sorry!
[05:53] Anne
    I can never do that.
[05:54] Marilla
    And why not?
[05:55] Anne
    Because I'm not sorry!
    I can't even imagine I'm sorry!
[06:04] Marilla
    You said you would try
    to be a very good girl.
[06:08] Marilla
    You said you would,
    "do your very best," didn't you?
[06:13] Marilla
    You'll stay here in your room until you
    can tell me you're willing to do apologize.
[06:18] Anne
    I shall have to stay here forever then.
[06:20] Marilla
    Do as you like!
[06:24] Marilla
    What a headstrong child.
[06:36] Matthew
    It's a good thing that meddlesome
    old gossip got a calling down.
[06:40] Marilla
    Matthew?!
[06:41] Matthew
    Anne hasn't ever had
    anyone to teach her right.
[06:45] Matthew
    You're going to give her
    something to eat, aren't you?
[06:49] Marilla
    She'll have her meals regular,
    and I'll let her out, too.
[06:53] Marilla
    When she's willing to apologize.
[07:17] Anne
    Yes?
[07:19] Matthew
    How are you making it?
[07:21] Anne
    Pretty well. It's rather lonesome.
    But then, I may as well get used to that.
[07:26] Matthew
    Well now, Anne, don't you think you'd
    better do it and have it over with?
[07:33] Anne
    Do you mean apologize to Mrs. Lynde?
[07:36] Matthew
    Yes, apologize.
[07:38] Matthew
    Just smooth it over so to speak.
[07:41] Matthew
    It'll have to be done
    sooner or later, you know.
[07:44] Matthew
    Marilla's a dreadful determined woman.
[07:48] Anne
    I suppose I could do it to oblige you.
[07:52] Anne
    I'd do anything for you—
    if you really want me to.
[07:56] Matthew
    Well now, of course I do.
[07:58] Matthew
    I'd greatly appreciate it.
[08:00] Matthew
    It's terrible lonesome
    downstairs without you.
[08:05] Anne
    Very well.
[08:06] Matthew
    But don't tell Marilla
    I said anything about it.
[08:18] Anne
    Marilla.
[08:20] Marilla
    Well?
[08:22] Anne
    I'm sorry I lost my temper
    and said rude things,
[08:24] Anne
    and I'm willing to go
    and tell Mrs. Lynde so.
[08:28] Marilla
    Very well. I'll take you down.
[08:33] Anne
    Thank you!
[08:35] Anne
    I am so extremely sorry.
[08:37] Anne
    What I said to you was true, too.
[08:40] Marilla
    What are you thinking of?
[08:42] Anne
    I'm imagining out what
    I must say to Mrs. Lynde.
[09:03] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Lynde, I am so extremely sorry!
[09:09] Marilla
    I should have known it.
[09:10] Anne
    I could never express all my sorrow, no,
    not even if I used up a whole dictionary!
[09:16] Anne
    Every word you said was true!
[09:20] Anne
    My hair is red, and I'm
    freckled and skinny and ugly!
[09:24] Anne
    What I said to you was true, too,
[09:28] Anne
    but I shouldn't have said it.
[09:32] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Lynde, please.
[09:33] Anne
    You wouldn't like to inflict a lifelong sorrow
     on a poor little orphan girl, would you,
[09:40] Anne
    even if she had a dreadful temper?!
[09:44] Anne
    Oh, please say you forgive me, Mrs. Lynde!
[09:54] Marilla
    Look at her.
[09:55] Marilla
    She's enjoying herself.
[10:01] Lynde
    There, there, get up, child.
[10:04] Lynde
    Of course I forgive you.
[10:06] Anne
    Truly?
[10:08] Lynde
    Yes.
[10:09] Lynde
    I guess I was a little
    too hard on you, anyway.
[10:12] Lynde
    I knew a girl once whose hair was red
    but darkened to a real handsome auburn.
[10:17] Anne
    What?!
[10:18] Lynde
    I wouldn't be a mite surprised
    if yours did, too.
[10:22] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Lynde! You have given me a hope.
[10:26] Anne
    I shall always feel that
    you are a benefactor.
[10:29] Marilla
    Well, you managed it. How, I don't know.
[10:33] Anne
    Yes, I did.
[10:34] Marilla
    Go take a look around the orchard
    while Rachel and I are talking.
[10:40] Lynde
    You can pick a bouquet of them white
     June lilies over in the corner if you like.
[10:44] Anne
    Thank you!
[10:46] Lynde
    She has a queer way of expressing herself,
    but there is something taking about her.
[10:52] Lynde
    She's an honest child.
[10:54] Lynde
    On the whole, Marilla, I kind of like her.
[10:58] Marilla
    What a way to apologize!
    I dreaded what she might say next.
[11:02] Marilla
    I appreciate you forgiving
    her in spite of all, Rachel.
[11:08] Anne
    Aren't these flowers sweet!
[11:11] Anne
    It was lovely of Mrs. Lynde
    to give them to me.
[11:14] Marilla
    Yes.
[11:15] Marilla
    I hope you won't have occasion
    to make many more such apologies.
[11:19] Anne
    That wouldn't be so hard if people
    wouldn't twit me about my looks.
[11:23] Marilla
    I'm afraid you are a
    very vain little girl.
[11:26] Anne
    How can I be vain when I know I'm homely?
[11:29] Anne
    I love pretty things,
[11:33] Anne
    and I hate to look in the glass and
    see something that isn't pretty.
[11:38] Anne
    How could I like other people
    drawing attention to it?
[11:41] Marilla
    Handsome is as handsome does.
[11:46] Anne
    I have my doubts about that.
[11:49] Anne
    But it gives you a lovely feeling to
    apologize and be forgiven, doesn't it?
[11:54] Anne
    Isn't it lovely to be going home, Marilla?
[11:58] Anne
    To be going home and know it's home.
[12:02] Marilla
    Is that so?
[12:07] Anne
    I love Green Gables already,
[12:10] Anne
    and I never loved any place before.
[12:14] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, I'm so happy.
[12:20] Marilla
    If you'll be a good girl,
[12:22] Marilla
    you'll always be happy, Anne.
[12:35] Marilla
    Well,
[12:37] Marilla
    how do you like them?
[12:40] Anne
    Well...
[12:41] Anne
    I'll imagine that I like them.
[12:44] Marilla
    You'll imagine?!
[12:45] Marilla
    What is the matter with
    the dresses I made you?
[12:49] Anne
    Oh, I am grateful.
    But they're not fashionable!
[12:52] Anne
    It would give me such a thrill to
    wear a dress with puffed sleeves.
[12:57] Marilla
    Well, you'll have to
    do without your thrill.
[13:00] Anne
    And this hat is much too plain.
[13:04] Marilla
    There, my headache has gotten worse.
[13:09] Marilla
    You'll have to go to
    Sunday school by yourself.
[13:13] Anne
    Do you think that I shall
    have a bosom friend there?
[13:17] Marilla
    A what kind of a friend?
[13:18] Anne
    An intimate friend, you know.
[13:20] Marilla
    There is Diana Barry.
[13:23] Anne
    Barry?
[13:26] Anne
    Barry's pond!
[13:28] Anne
    The Lake of Shining Waters!
[13:29] Marilla
    Yes. I don't think she can come today,
[13:33] Marilla
    but she lives near the pond,
    and she's a nice, pretty little girl.
[13:37] Anne
    It would be best to have
    a beautiful bosom friend.
[13:41] Marilla
    It's what's inside that matters most.
[13:45] Anne
    Diana.
[13:46] Anne
    Diana Barry.
[13:48] Anne
    Anne Shirley.
[14:38] Bell
    There are things that even God cannot do.
[14:40] Anne
    My sleeves are puffed, too.
[14:41] Bell
    But perhaps I should clarify.
[14:43] Bell
    It would be truer to say that God
    can choose what He cannot do,
[14:43] Anne
    My sleeves are puffed, too.
[14:46] Bell
    or that He can choose
     what He does not do.
[14:46] Anne
    Mine are, too.
[14:48] Bell
    Thus God, while—in a sense—weak and
    powerless, is also the hope of the world.
[14:48] Anne
    Mine are, too.
[15:10] Marilla
    Late, I see.
[15:12] Anne
    Yes, I took the long way coming home.
[15:20] Marilla
    Rachel was just here.
[15:23] Marilla
    She says you went to church with your
    hat rigged out ridiculous with flowers.
[15:27] Anne
    Y-Yes, I did.
[15:29] Marilla
    What on earth put you up to such a caper?
[15:33] Marilla
    A pretty-looking object you must have been!
[15:35] Anne
    L-Lots of little girls there had
    bouquets pinned on their dresses.
[15:39] Anne
    What was the difference?
[15:40] Marilla
    It makes me trouble!
[15:44] Marilla
    Rachel says people talked
    about it something dreadful.
[15:48] Marilla
    Of course they would think I had no better
    sense than to let you go decked out like that.
[15:55] Anne
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[15:57] Anne
    I'm so sorry.
[15:59] Anne
    I can see that I've disgraced you.
[16:02] Anne
    I never thought you'd mind.
[16:05] Anne
    I'm afraid I'm going to
    be a dreadful trial to you.
[16:11] Anne
    Maybe you'd better send
    me back to the asylum.
[16:16] Anne
    Having to leave Green Gables
    would be a terrible tragedy.
[16:19] Anne
    But that would be better
    than being a trial to you.
[16:27] Marilla
    Nonsense.
[16:29] Marilla
    I don't want to send you back
    to the asylum, I'm sure.
[16:33] Marilla
    All I want is that you should
    not make yourself ridiculous.
[16:37] Marilla
    This is your home.
[16:39] Marilla
    You belong to Green Gables.
[16:43] Marilla
    Oh yes, I've got some news for you.
[16:45] Marilla
    Diana Barry came home this afternoon.
[16:48] Marilla
    I'll go over with you.
[16:50] Anne
    What, right now?
[16:52] Marilla
    This minute!
[16:53] Anne
    What?!
[16:57] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, I'm frightened.
[17:00] Anne
    What if she shouldn't like me!
[17:04] Anne
    I'm the most frightened girl
     on Prince Edward Island.
[17:08] Marilla
    Now, don't get into a fluster.
    I guess Diana'll like you well enough.
[17:13] Marilla
    Be careful how you behave yourself, though.
[17:16] Anne
    Yes.
[17:17] Marilla
    Mrs. Barry is a very particular woman.
[17:20] Anne
    Yes, of course.
[17:22] Barry
    Come in. And this is the little girl?
[17:26] Marilla
    Yes, this is Anne Shirley.
[17:31] Anne
    Spelled with an e.
[17:37] Barry
    How are you, Anne?
[17:41] Anne
    I am well in body although
    considerably rumpled up in spirit.
[17:48] Barry
    I'm glad she has the
    prospect of a playmate.
[17:53] Barry
    Diana.
[17:54] Barry
    Here is the girl I told you about.
[17:56] Barry
    Anne Shirley, who's come
    to live at Green Gables.
[18:00] Barry
    You might take Anne out into the garden.
[18:12] Diana
    Do you like books?
[18:14] Anne
    Y-Yes.
[18:16] Diana
    I read all day when I lose myself in one.
[18:20] Diana
    I love exciting, tragical, romantic stories.
[18:25] Diana
    But Mother says reading strains the eyes.
[18:29] Diana
    She must want me to make a friend
    nearby to take me out of doors more.
[18:37] Diana
    I'm sorry. Was that awful
    of me to say to you?
[18:42] Anne
    "Quick as the slaughtered squadrons fell
    In Midian's evil day."
[18:49] Diana
    Isn't that...
[18:51] Anne
    Yes, I read it over in church today.
[18:54] Anne
    The minister wasn't the least bit interesting,
     but those two lines just thrill me.
[18:59] Anne
    They sound so tragical and
    exciting, don't you think?
[19:04] Anne
    Oh, Diana, do you think—
    oh, do you think you can like me?
[19:09] Diana
    Yes.
[19:10] Anne
    Enough to be my bosom friend?
[19:12] Diana
    Y-Your what kind of friend?!
[19:14] Anne
    I mean that I want you to be
[19:17] Anne
    my very best friend!
[19:30] Diana
    Why, I guess so.
[19:32] Diana
    I'm awfully glad you've
    come to live at Green Gables!
[19:38] Anne
    W-Will you swear to be my
    friend forever and ever?
[19:43] Diana
    I don't mind. How do you do it?
[19:46] Anne
    We must join hands.
[19:57] Anne
    I'll repeat the oath first.
[20:02] Anne
    I solemnly swear to be faithful
    to my bosom friend, Diana Barry,
[20:07] Anne
    as long as the sun and moon shall endure.
[20:13] Diana
    I really do think I can like you.
[20:19] Anne
    Now you say it and put my
    name in! Anne with an e!
[20:24] Diana
    I solemnly swear to be faithful
    to my bosom friend, Anne Shirley,
[20:30] Diana
    as long as the sun and moon shall endure.
[20:32] Diana
    How was that?
[20:33] Anne
    Perfect! I could just hear the e.
[20:37] Diana
    Now tell me, what does "Midian" mean?
[20:39] Anne
    I don't know.
[20:40] Diana
    You don't?
[20:42] Marilla
    You look like
[20:44] Marilla
    the happiest girl on Prince Edward Island.
[20:46] Anne
    Oh, I am.
[20:47] Anne
    Diana's birthday is in February,
     and mine is in March.
[20:52] Anne
    Don't you think that is a
    very strange coincidence?
[20:54] Anne
    Don't you think Diana has
    got very soulful eyes?
[20:57] Anne
    I wish I had soulful eyes.
[21:00] Anne
    She's going to give me a
    picture to put up in my room.
[21:04] Marilla
    Well, remember you'll have your work
    to do and it'll have to be done first.
[21:10] Anne
    You're right.
[21:11] Anne
    I wish I had something to give Diana.
[21:19] Matthew
    I heard you say you liked
    chocolate sweeties,
[21:23] Matthew
    so I got you some.
[21:25] Anne
    Thank you, Matthew!
[21:27] Marilla
    Humph!
[21:28] Marilla
    It'll ruin her teeth and stomach.
[21:34] Marilla
    Don't look so dismal.
[21:37] Marilla
    You can eat those, since Matthew
    has gone and got them.
[21:43] Anne
    Truly?!
[21:44] Marilla
    Don't sicken yourself eating
    them all at once now.
[21:48] Anne
    Oh, no, I'll just eat one tonight.
[21:52] Anne
    And I can give Diana half
    of them, can't I?
[21:56] Anne
    The other half will taste twice as
    sweet to me if I give some to her.
[22:00] Anne
    It's delightful to think
    I have something to give her.
[22:20] Marilla
    It's only three weeks since she came,
[22:24] Marilla
    and it seems as if she'd
    been here always.
[22:28] Marilla
    I can't imagine the place without her.
[22:37] Marilla
    Now, don't be looking I-told-you-so.
[22:40] Marilla
    I'm perfectly willing to own up that
    I'm glad I consented to keep the child,
[22:48] Marilla
    but don't you rub it in, Matthew Cuthbert.
[22:53] Anne
    Gracious Heavenly Father,
    I made a friend today.
[22:58] Anne
    I feel so happy just imagining
    giving her caramels.
[23:05] Anne
    I hope Diana will like them.
[23:23] Marilla
    Good night,
[23:24] Marilla
    Anne of Green Gables.
[23:29] Marilla
    Good night.

[00:01] Matthew
    How do you like it?
[00:02] Anne
    It's lovely.
[00:04] Anne
    Doesn't this picture remind you of Diana?
[00:07] Matthew
    Well now, I don't know about that.
[00:10] Anne
    Thank you, Matthew.
[00:13] Marilla
    Have you both forgotten it's time for tea?
[00:15] Anne
    I'm sorry, Marilla.
[00:17] Anne
    The picture Diana gave
    me is just so beautiful.
[00:20] Marilla
    I've already heard all about it.
[00:23] Anne
    Oh, I've been invited to
    a Sunday school picnic.
[00:28] Marilla
    Have you now?
[00:30] Anne
    Oh, I've never been to a picnic.
[00:34] Anne
    Please can I go, Marilla?
[00:39] Marilla
    It's not likely I'd refuse to let you go
    when all the other little girls are going.
[00:44] Anne
    But... But Diana says that everybody
    must take a basket of things to eat.
[00:49] Marilla
    Of course I'll bake you a basket.
[00:52] Anne
    Oh, you dear good Marilla!
[00:55] Marilla
    Here now. Not so close.
[00:58] Marilla
    Never mind your kissing nonsense.
SIGN    Chapter 3
SIGN    Looking Forward to Things
    Is Half the Pleasure of Them
[02:46] Anne
    Is something the matter, Marilla?
[02:48] Marilla
    Did you see my amethyst brooch I wear
    to church? I can't find it anywhere.
[02:54] Marilla
    I always put it back in its
    place when I'm done with it.
[02:58] Anne
    That perfectly elegant brooch
    like the souls of violets?
[03:02] Anne
    I saw it on your
    pincushion on the bureau.
[03:06] Anne
    I took it up and I pinned it on my
    breast just to see how it would look.
[03:08] Marilla
    You had no business to
    do anything of the sort.
[03:11] Marilla
    Now, where did you put the brooch?
[03:14] Anne
    Oh, I put it back on the bureau.
[03:15] Anne
    I didn't think about its being wrong.
[03:17] Anne
    But one good thing about me is, I never
    do the same naughty thing twice.
[03:23] Marilla
    I'll go and have another look.
[03:33] Anne
    Isn't it there?
[03:39] Marilla
    Tell me the truth at once.
[03:42] Marilla
    Did you take it out and lose it?
[03:45] Anne
    I never did and that is the truth,
    if I was to be led to the block for it,
[03:49] Anne
    although I'm not very
    certain what a block is.
[03:52] Anne
    So there!
[03:53] Marilla
    Nonsense!
[03:55] Marilla
    I believe you are telling me a falsehood!
[03:57] Marilla
    Go to your room and stay there
    until you are ready to confess!
[03:59] Anne
    Should I take the peas?
[04:00] Marilla
    No. Do as I bid you!
[04:05] Matthew
    Mother gave you that brooch, I know.
[04:08] Marilla
    I don't suppose she meant to
    steal it or anything like that.
[04:12] Marilla
    I suppose she has lost it and is afraid
    to own up for fear she'll be punished.
[04:15] Marilla
    It's a dreadful thing to
    think she tells falsehoods.
[04:17] Marilla
    I declare I feel worse about
    that than about the brooch.
[04:21] Matthew
    How long are you going to
    make her stay in her room?
[04:25] Marilla
    Until she confesses!
[04:28] Matthew
    Well now, you have the bringing up of her.
[04:34] Marilla
    I can't very well go to Rachel about this.
[04:38] Marilla
    What am I to do?
[04:43] Marilla
    You haven't eaten a bite.
[04:46] Anne
    I did not take your brooch.
[04:49] Anne
    The picnic is tomorrow!
[04:50] Anne
    You won't keep me from
    going to that, will you?
[04:53] Marilla
    You'll not go to picnics nor anywhere
    else until you've confessed!
[04:58] Anne
    Oh, Marilla!
[05:18] Anne
    Marilla, I'm ready to confess!
[05:22] Anne
    I took the amethyst brooch!
[05:29] Marilla
    Let me hear what you have to say then.
[05:32] Anne
    I wanted to wear it out among the birches
[05:35] Anne
    and play I was the Lady Cordelia Fitzgerald.
[05:39] Anne
    I thought I could put it
    back before you came home.
[05:44] Anne
    Only...
[05:45] Marilla
    Only what?
[05:46] Anne
    I went all the way around by the
    road to lengthen out the time.
[05:49] Anne
    On the bridge across the
    Lake of Shining Waters,
[05:52] Anne
    I took the brooch off to
    have another look at it.
[05:56] Anne
    And then it just slipped
    through my fingers
[06:00] Anne
    and sank forevermore beneath
    the Lake of Shining Waters.
[06:07] Anne
    And that's the best I can
    do at confessing, Marilla.
[06:10] Marilla
    Anne, this is terrible!
[06:13] Marilla
    You are the very wickedest
    girl I ever heard of.
[06:17] Anne
    Yes, I suppose I am.
[06:20] Anne
    Won't you please punish me right off?
[06:22] Anne
    I'd like to go to the picnic
    with nothing on my mind.
[06:25] Marilla
    Picnic, indeed!
[06:27] Marilla
    You'll go to no picnic
    today, Anne Shirley.
[06:29] Marilla
    That shall be your punishment.
[06:31] Anne
    Not go to the picnic!
    But you promised me I might!
[06:34] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, I must go to the picnic!
     That was why I confessed!
[06:39] Anne
    Today is to be a red-letter day—
    the first time I have ice cream!
[06:43] Anne
    For anything you know I may never have
    a chance to taste ice cream again!
[06:46] Anne
    Please, Marilla!
[06:48] Marilla
    You are not going to the
    picnic and that's final.
[06:53] (Flashback) Rachel
    Did anybody ever see such a temper!
[06:57] (Flashback) Rachel
    I'm not vexed. I'm too sorry
    for you to leave any room for anger.
[07:06] Marilla
    I've put my hand to the plough
    and I won't look back.
[07:11] Marilla
    Come down to your dinner, Anne!
[07:15] Anne
    I don't want any dinner!
[07:17] Anne
    I couldn't eat anything!
    My heart is broken!
[07:20] Anne
    You'll feel remorse of
    conscience someday, I expect,
[07:23] Anne
    but I forgive you.
[07:25] Anne
    Remember when the time
    comes that I forgive you.
[07:28] Anne
    But please don't ask me to eat anything,
[07:31] Anne
    especially anything so unromantic
    as boiled pork and greens!
[07:42] Matthew
    This is good.
[07:44] Marilla
    For "unromantic boiled pork
    and greens," I suppose.
[07:48] Matthew
    Well now, she shouldn't have told stories,
    but she's such a little thing.
[07:53] Marilla
    I'm amazed at you. I think I've
    let her off entirely too easy.
[07:58] Matthew
    But you know, she's never
    had any bringing up.
[08:03] Marilla
    Well, she's having it now.
[08:07] Marilla
    What a lot of sewing to do.
[08:09] Marilla
    Oh yes,
[08:10] Marilla
    I must mend that rent in my shawl.
[08:14] Marilla
    What, another tear?
[08:21] Marilla
    What does this mean?
[08:25] Marilla
    It must have happened when...
[08:27] Marilla
    Anne Shirley!
[08:30] Marilla
    I've just found my brooch
    hanging to my black lace shawl!
[08:32] Marilla
    Now I want to know what that rigmarole
    you told me this morning meant!
[08:37] Anne
    Why, you said you'd keep
    me here until I confessed.
[08:43] Anne
    So I thought out a confession and
    made it as interesting as I could.
[08:50] Anne
    And I rehearsed it all last night.
[08:54] Anne
    But you wouldn't let me go to the picnic
    after all, so all my trouble was wasted.
[09:06] Marilla
    Anne, you do beat all!
[09:09] Marilla
    But I was wrong.
[09:11] Marilla
    I shouldn't have doubted your word.
[09:14] Marilla
    Of course, it wasn't right for you to
    confess to a thing you hadn't done.
[09:19] Marilla
    But I drove you to it.
[09:23] Marilla
    So if you'll forgive me,
[09:25] Marilla
    Anne, I'll forgive you.
[09:29] Anne
    Why, Marilla, of course I forgive you.
[09:34] Marilla
    And now get yourself
    ready for the picnic.
[09:37] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, isn't it too late?
[09:41] Marilla
    They won't be more than well gathered yet.
[09:44] Marilla
    Now put this on.
[09:45] Marilla
    Oh, but wash your face and
    comb your hair first!
[09:51] Marilla
    Matthew! Drive Anne down!
[09:53] Matthew
    Of course. I'll hitch up the sorrel.
[09:59] Diana
    Anne! Come here!
[10:01] Anne
    Diana!
[10:03] Diana
    Anne!
[10:05] Diana
    How I've waited for you.
[10:09] Diana
    This is Anne Shirley, my dearest friend.
[10:13] Anne
    Her dearest friend!
[10:14] Diana
    It's a pleasure to meet you!
[10:15] Ruby; Jane; Mary; Josie
    The pleasure's ours!
[10:18] Anne
    Picnicking with everybody
[10:20] Anne
    was so much lovelier
    than ever I imagined!
[10:24] Anne
    On the Lake of Shining Waters...
[10:26] Anne
    Watch out!
[10:27] Anne
    one girl nearly fell overboard.
[10:30] Anne
    And we had the ice cream!
[10:36] Anne
    Words fail me to describe that ice cream!
[10:41] Anne
    I assure you it was sublime.
[10:43] Marilla
    I assure you that you're blowing
    it out of proportion.
[10:46] Anne
    Oh, Matthew, Marilla, I've had
    a perfectly scrumptious time!
[10:52] Anne
    Scrumptious is a new word
    I learned today.
[10:56] Anne
    I heard Mary Bell use it.
[10:58] Marilla
    What a day that was.
[11:01] Marilla
    Anne's "confession" was all a falsehood.
[11:05] Marilla
    I'm willing to own up
    that I made a mistake.
[11:09] Marilla
    And there's one thing certain.
[11:15] Marilla
    No house will ever be dull that she's in.
[11:24] Matthew
    Yes, and aren't you glad, Marilla?
[11:37] Marilla
    Remember, Anne,
[11:38] Marilla
    you're to keep your mouth shut at school.
[11:40] Anne
    I will!
[11:41] Marilla
    And listen to your teacher.
[11:43] Anne
    I know, Marilla.
[11:46] Anne
    Do my clothes look funny?
[11:48] Marilla
    No, they do not.
[11:49] Anne
    Well then, I'll be on my way!
[11:50] Marilla
    Oh, your lunch!
[11:53] Matthew
    I'll have your study desk ready
    by the time you get home, Anne.
[11:57] Anne
    Thank you, Matthew.
[11:59] Anne
    Goodbye, then.
[12:03] Marilla
    I only hope she gets on
    with the other children.
[12:07] Anne
    Good morning, Lover's Lane.
[12:10] Anne
    A wonderfully romantic name,
    if I do say so myself.
[12:13] Diana
    Anne!
[12:15] Anne
    Good morning, Diana!
[12:17] Diana
    Good morning.
[12:18] Diana
    How do you feel about your
    first day of school?
[12:20] Anne
    Simply splendid!
[12:22] Anne
    But it's splendider still to have
    such a lovely way to go to school by!
[12:30] Diana
    The Violet Vale! Millions of
    them bloom there in spring!
[12:35] Diana
    The Birch Path! Have you ever seen
    such beautiful shafts of light?
[12:39] Diana
    The school is just past these spruces.
[12:43] Diana
    Good morning, Jane!
[12:46] Jane
    Will you listen to this?
[12:48] Jane
    Gertie Pye actually went and put her milk
    bottle in my place in the brook yesterday.
[12:53] Jane
    Did you ever?
[12:55] Diana
    Good morning, Ruby.
[12:57] Ruby
    Mr. Phillips wrote something
    on Prissy Andrews's slate,
[13:01] Ruby
    and when Prissy read it,
    she blushed as red as a beet.
[13:05] Ruby
    Why do you think that was?
[13:06] Anne
    I can't imagine.
[13:08] Diana
    Anne, look!
[13:10] Diana
    That's the Avonlea school there.
[13:14] Anne
    You're all on the fifth book, aren't you?
[13:16] Anne
    I'm only on the fourth—
    terribly far behind.
[13:19] Diana
    You'll catch up soon.
[13:21] Student
    The master's here.
[13:27] Phillips
    Good morning.
[13:28] Students
    Good morning, Mr. Phillips.
[13:31] Phillips
    We'll spend our first hour on geography.
[13:33] Phillips
    Look at this map of Prince
    Edward Island and answer...
[13:36] Anne
    Oh, you can see the Lake of
    Shining Waters from here, too.
[13:40] Phillips
    Anne Shirley, our newest scholar!
[13:43] Phillips
    Come up to the map!
[13:49] Phillips
    Point to Avonlea Village.
[13:51] Anne
    I've never seen a map before.
[13:54] Diana; Jane
    Go on, Anne!
[13:57] Phillips
    Don't you know where it is?
[14:01] Anne
    "Caribou"?
[14:04] Anne
    I took a boat from Caribou
    to... Charlottetown!
[14:07] Anne
    And the train from there
    to... Bright River!
[14:10] Anne
    Then we followed Avonlea main
    road straight north to...
[14:14] Anne
    Avonlea Village is right here.
[14:16] Phillips
    You're correct.
[14:19] Anne
    "The year's at the spring,
    And day's at the morn;"
[14:22] Anne
    "Morning's at seven;
    The hill-side's dew-pearled;"
[14:26] Anne
    "The lark's on the wing;"
[14:28] Jane
    Anne recites well, too.
[14:29] Anne
    "The snail's on the thorn;"
[14:31] Ruby
    I can almost see it all.
[14:31] Anne
    "God's in his Heaven—"
[14:33] Anne
    "All's right with the world!"
[14:37] Ruby
    Anne, you're a marvel!
[14:40] Ruby
    You even surprised Mr. Phillips!
[14:42] Diana
    The lark's on the wing;
[14:45] Diana
    The milk's on Anne's cheek.
[14:48] Ruby
    Ruby is right here.
[14:53] Diana
    Anne, wait!
[14:54] Jane
    We always pool our lunches!
    It's our rule!
[14:58] Anne
    Is it really?
[15:00] Ruby
    We won't let our Anne Shirley
    get branded as "awful mean."
[15:04] Diana; Jane; Ruby
    Now, let's have a taste!
[15:07] Anne
    Your pie won high acclaim, Marilla.
[15:09] Anne
    Everybody wished they'd had more of it.
[15:12] Marilla
    Then I'll bake more next time.
[15:15] Matthew
    And how were your lessons?
[15:16] Anne
    I'm a little behind, but it wasn't all bad!
[15:20] Anne
    I had wonderful news from Jane.
[15:23] Anne
    What do you think she said, Marilla?
[15:26] Marilla
    I'm sure I don't know.
[15:28] Anne
    She said that I had a very pretty nose!
[15:32] Matthew
    Oh?
[15:33] Anne
    That is the first compliment
    I have ever had in my life!
[15:36] Anne
    Marilla, have I really a pretty nose?
    I know you'll tell me the truth.
[15:41] Marilla
    Your nose is well enough.
[15:44] Anne
    Really?! Truly?!
[15:48] Diana
    You look cheery as ever, Anne.
[15:51] Anne
    Yes. I think I can come to like this school.
[15:55] Diana
    You do? I'm so glad!
[15:57] Anne
    You look rather cheery today yourself.
[16:01] Anne
    Has something nice happened?
[16:02] Diana
    I guess Gilbert Blythe will
    be back in school today.
[16:07] Anne
    Gilbert?
[16:10] Diana
    He's aw'fly handsome.
[16:14] Diana
    He's older than us—nearly fourteen.
[16:18] Jimmy
    Gilbert!
[16:19] Diana
    His father was sick, and he
    left Avonlea for a few years.
[16:23] Charlie
    It feels like forever.
    How have you been?
[16:24] Gilbert
    Well!
[16:25] Carrie
    There he is!
[16:30] Girls
    Gilbert!
[16:31] Girls
    It's so good to see you again!
[16:33] Girls
    Gilbert!
[16:34] Gilbert
    Crow!
[16:36] Anne
    "Crow"?
[16:37] Diana
    He calls me that to make fun of
    me because my hair is so black.
[16:41] Diana
    Oh, that Gilbert!
[16:49] Phillips
    Excellent.
[16:50] Phillips
    Well done, Gilbert.
[16:52] Gilbert
    Thank you, sir.
[16:55] Diana
    Gilbert was the head of his
    class before the break.
[16:59] Anne
    I can see that.
[17:00] Anne
    I'm glad to have a worthy rival.
[17:02] Phillips
    Now, I'd like you to solve another problem.
[17:06] Phillips
    Does anyone feel confident?
[17:08] Phillips
    Ruby Gillis.
[17:10] Ruby
    Yes, sir!
[17:11] Ruby
    Er...
[17:17] Ruby
    Really!
[17:18] Phillips
    Ruby Gillis, don't keep us waiting.
[17:19] Anne
    I think your Gilbert Blythe is handsome,
[17:21] Ruby
    Y-Yes, sir.
[17:22] Anne
    but I think he's very bold.
[17:24] Gilbert
    Who's she?
[17:25] Jimmy
    Anne Shirley. She's head of your class now.
[17:32] Minnie
    I made a new dress.
[17:34] Ruby
    Oh?
[17:34] Tommy
    Go, go!
[17:37] Phillips
    Keep silent and study!
[18:10] Jimmy
    A girl's ignoring Gilbert!
[18:13] Jimmy
    Can you believe it?!
[18:21] Gilbert
    Carrots.
[18:25] Gilbert
    Carrots.
[18:32] Anne
    You mean, hateful boy!
[18:53] Jimmy
    Oh, wow.
[19:05] Phillips
    What happened here?
[19:06] Gilbert
    I'm sorry, Mr. Phillips! It was my fault!
[19:10] Phillips
    Anne Shirley, what does this mean?
[19:13] Phillips
    Explain yourself, Anne Shirley!
[19:18] Phillips
    Very well.
[19:20] Phillips
    Go and stand in front of the blackboard
    for the rest of the afternoon.
[19:25] Phillips
    Ann Shirley must learn
    to control her temper!
[19:35] Phillips
    Now, it is time for your lesson.
[19:37] Phillips
    Turn to page twenty-five in your books.
[19:40] Phillips
    Well? Don't sit there staring!
[19:43] Anne
    He left off the e*.
[19:47] Gilbert
    Anne!
[19:48] Gilbert
    Anne Shirley!
[19:50] Gilbert
    Wait!
[19:52] Gilbert
    I'm awful sorry I made fun of your hair.
[19:55] Gilbert
    Honest I am.
[19:57] Gilbert
    Sorry.
[20:09] Anne
    How could Mr. Phillips forget my e?!
[20:13] Anne
    How could Gilbert Blythe
    make fun of my hair?!
[20:19] Anne
    Why?! Why?! Why?!
[20:35] Anne
    Would you like to join me?
[20:36] Anne
    It helps you feel a little better.
[20:40] Anne
    Oh, no!
[20:46] Jimmy
    Oh, no! We won't make it!
[21:01] Phillips
    Anne Shirley!
[21:03] Phillips
    Since you seem to be so fond
    of the boys' company,
[21:07] Phillips
    we shall indulge your taste
    for it this afternoon.
[21:11] Schoolgirl
    That's a boy's seat.
[21:13] Schoolgirl
    Poor her.
[21:17] Diana
    Anne.
[21:23] Diana
    What are you clearing up for, Anne?
[21:25] Diana
    School isn't over yet.
[21:28] Diana
    Oh, Anne!
[21:30] Anne
    I'd do almost anything in
    the world for you, Diana.
[21:33] Anne
    I'd let myself be torn limb from
    limb if it would do you any good.
[21:36] Anne
    But I can't do this,
    so please don't ask it.
[21:42] Marilla
    Nonsense.
[21:44] Anne
    It isn't nonsense at all.
[21:47] Anne
    Don't you understand?
    I've been insulted!
[21:51] Anne
    I will not go back to school, I assure you.
[21:56] Marilla
    Anne.
[21:58] Marilla
    For once,
[21:59] Marilla
    I'll have to run down and*
    see Rachel about this.

[00:04] Marilla
    I don't know what to do with her.
[00:08] (Flashback) Anne
    I will not go back to school, I assure you.
[00:12] Marilla
    She can be awful stubborn
    if she takes the notion.
[00:15] Lynde
    Speaking as a woman who's
    sent ten children to school,
[00:20] Lynde
    I'd just humor her a little at
    first, that's what I'd do.
[00:23] Marilla
    Then you really think
    I'd better let her stay home?
[00:26] Lynde
    Yes. That is, I wouldn't
    say school to her again
[00:30] Lynde
    until she said it herself.
[00:36] Lynde
    She'll cool off in a week or so and be
    ready enough to go back of her own accord.
[00:39] Marilla
    You think so?
[00:41] Lynde
    While, if you were to make
    her go back right off,
[00:45] Lynde
    dear knows what freak or tantrum she'd
    take next and make more trouble than ever.
[00:54] Marilla
    Anne?
[00:56] Marilla
    Whatever's the matter now?
[00:57] Anne
    I love Diana so, Marilla.
    I cannot ever live without her.
[01:02] Marilla
    Have you had a falling out?
[01:05] Anne
    No.
[01:07] Anne
    But when we grow up,
    Diana will get married...
[01:11] Anne
    and go away and leave me.
[01:14] Anne
    And oh, what shall I do?
[01:17] Anne
    I hate her husband—
    I just hate him furiously.
[01:26] Marilla
    If you must borrow trouble,
    for pity's sake, borrow it handier home.
[01:30] Marilla
    Oh, yes. I'm going out tomorrow afternoon.
[01:34] Marilla
    You can ask Diana to come
    over and have tea here.
[01:38] Anne
    Oh, Marilla!
[01:41] Marilla
    Have the bottle of raspberry cordial
    on the second shelf of the closet.
[01:45] Marilla
    You can cut some fruitcake and have
    some of the cookies and snaps.
[01:48] Anne
    How perfectly lovely!
[01:50] Anne
    You are able to imagine things after all,
[01:53] Anne
    or else you'd never have understood
    how I've longed for that very thing.
[01:57] Anne
    It will seem so nice and grown-uppish!

[03:47] Diana
    How do you do?
[03:50] Anne
    All the better for your company.
[03:56] Anne
    May I... offer you tea?
[04:02] Anne
    Marilla said the raspberry cordial
    was on the second shelf.
[04:08] Anne
    This must be it.
[04:13] Anne
    Marilla's famous raspberry cordial!
[04:15] Anne
    Please help yourself.
[04:19] Diana
    Thank you. It's such a pretty color.
[04:24] Diana
    That's awfully nice!
[04:26] Diana
    I didn't know raspberry
    cordial was so nice!
[04:30] Anne
    I'm real glad you like it!
[04:34] Anne
    Take as much as you want.
    I'm going to run out and stir the fire up.
[04:44] Diana
    It certainly is very nice.
[04:55] Anne
    Another glass?
[04:57] Diana
    Yes, please.
[05:02] Diana
    The nicest I ever drank.
[05:04] Diana
    It's ever so much nicer than Mother's.
[05:06] Anne
    Marilla is a famous cook.
[05:09] Anne
    But there's no scope for imagination in
    cookery. You just have to go by rules.
[05:13] Anne
    She is trying to teach me to cook,
    but I assure you, Diana, it is uphill work.
[05:20] Anne
    Why, Diana, what is the matter?
[05:23] Diana
    I'm—I'm awful sick.
[05:27] Anne
    What?
[05:28] Anne
    Where do you feel bad?
[05:30] Anne
    W-Would you like to
    lie down on the sofa?
[05:32] Diana
    I must go right home.
[05:34] Anne
    Oh, you mustn't dream of
    going home without your tea.
[05:37] Diana
    I must go home.
[05:38] Anne
    All right. I'll go with you.
[05:52] Anne
    Mrs. Lynde.
[05:54] Lynde
    Is Marilla in?
[05:55] Anne
    She's out.
[05:57] Anne
    Come in. I'll put on tea.
[05:59] Lynde
    Never mind. I only stopped to look in.
[06:03] Lynde
    Goodbye.
[06:08] Lynde
    Tell me, Anne,
[06:10] Lynde
    what did you give Diana to drink?
[06:15] Marilla
    You set Diana drunk?!
[06:19] Marilla
    What on earth did you give her?
[06:21] Anne
    Not a thing but raspberry cordial.
[06:23] Anne
    I never thought raspberry cordial
    would set people drunk,
[06:27] Anne
    not even if they drank three
    big tumblerfuls as Diana did.
[06:32] Marilla
    Anne, you certainly have a genius
    for getting into trouble.
[06:36] Marilla
    You went and gave Diana currant wine
     instead of raspberry cordial.
[06:40] Anne
    Wine?
[06:42] Marilla
    I put the bottle of cordial
    down in the cellar.
[06:45] Marilla
    Not in the pantry as I told you.
[06:48] Anne
    What?!
[06:49] Marilla
    Didn't you know the difference yourself?
[06:51] Anne
    I never tasted it. I meant to
    be so—so—hospitable.
[06:55] Anne
    Diana just laughed silly like when her
    mother asked her what was the matter.
[07:01] Anne
    Her mother smelled her breath
    and knew she was drunk.
[07:05] Anne
    Mrs. Barry is so indignant.
[07:08] Anne
    She will never let me play with Diana again!
[07:14] Marilla
    I know. I'll go up and tell
    Mrs. Barry how it was.
[07:20] Marilla
    She'll think better of it when she
    finds you're not really to blame.
[07:38] Anne
    Marilla?
[07:40] Marilla
    Of all the unreasonable women
    I ever saw, she's the worst!
[07:44] Marilla
    I told her it was all a mistake
    and you weren't to blame,
[07:47] Marilla
    but she just simply didn't believe me.
[07:49] Marilla
    I told her plainly that wine wasn't meant
    to be drunk three tumblerfuls at a time!
[08:04] Mrs. Barry
    What do you want?
[08:05] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Barry, please forgive me!
[08:08] Anne
    I did not mean to intoxicate Diana!
[08:12] Anne
    Just imagine if you had just one
    bosom friend in all the world!
[08:17] Anne
    Do you think you would
    intoxicate her on purpose?
[08:21] Anne
    Oh, please don't say that you won't
    let Diana play with me any more!
[08:25] Anne
    If you do, you will cover my
    life with a dark cloud of woe!
[08:31] Mrs. Barry
    How dare you mock your elders with
    big words and dramatic gestures.
[08:35] Mrs. Barry
    I don't think you are a fit little girl
    for Diana to associate with.
[08:40] Mrs. Barry
    You'd better go home and behave yourself.
[08:43] Anne
    Please wait!
[08:44] Anne
    Won't you let me see Diana
    just once to say farewell?
[08:48] Mrs. Barry
    Diana is sleeping. Now go!
[08:51] Anne
    Oh, but—
[09:00] Anne
    My last hope is gone.
[09:26] Anne
    Diana!
[09:31] Anne
    Your mother hasn't relented?
[09:35] Diana
    I've cried and cried, and I told her it
    wasn't your fault, but it wasn't any use.
[09:41] Diana
    I had ever such a time coaxing her to
    let me have ten minutes to say goodbye.
[09:46] Anne
    Ten minutes isn't very long
    to say an eternal farewell in.
[09:51] Anne
    Oh, Diana, will you promise faithfully never
    to forget me, the friend of your youth,
[09:59] Anne
    no matter what dearer
    friends may caress thee?
[10:03] Diana
    Indeed I will, and I'll never
    have another bosom friend.
[10:09] Diana
    I couldn't love anybody as I love you.
[10:13] Anne
    Oh, Diana, do you love me?
[10:18] Diana
    Why, of course I do.
[10:20] Diana
    Didn't you know that?
[10:21] Anne
    I thought you liked me, of course,
    but I never hoped you loved me.
[10:27] Anne
    Oh, this is wonderful!
[10:30] Anne
    Oh, Diana, just say it once again.
[10:33] Diana
    I love you devotedly, Anne,
     and I always will, you may be sure of that.
[10:39] Anne
    And I will always love thee, Diana.
[10:48] Anne
    Wilt thou give me a lock of thy jet-black
    tresses in parting to treasure forevermore?
[10:54] Anne
    Ready?
[10:56] Diana
    Yes.
[11:01] Anne
    Fare thee well, my beloved friend.
[11:04] Anne
    Henceforth we must be as strangers,
    though living side by side.
[11:08] Anne
    But my heart will ever be faithful to thee.
[11:28] Anne
    I'm going back to school.
[11:30] Anne
    That is all there is left in life for me,
[11:33] Anne
    now that my friend has been
    ruthlessly torn from me.
[11:36] Anne
    In school, I can look at her
    and muse over days departed.
[11:42] Marilla
    I hope we'll hear no more of breaking slates
    over people's heads and such carryings-on.
[11:47] Anne
    I'll try to be a model pupil!
[11:49] Anne
    Goodbye!
[11:56] Ruby
    Anne!
[11:57] Jane
    You've come back!
[12:05] Ruby
    Here.
[12:07] Ruby
    Have some.
[12:08] Anne
    Oh, it looks scrumptious!
[12:10] Ella
    Here, Anne.
[12:12] Anne
    What's this?
[12:14] Anne
    Oh, how pretty!
[12:16] Anne
    Thank you, Ella.
[12:18] Classmate
    Anne, this is from me.
[12:20] Classmate
    And I'd like you to have this, too.
[12:22] Anne
    Thank you all. I'll treasure them.
[12:31] Anne
    It's so nice to be appreciated.
[12:34] Matthew
    Well now, I suppose it is.
[12:36] Marilla
    I hope you're doing as
    your teacher tells you.
[12:39] Anne
    Of course I am.
[12:41] Anne
    But Diana won't look at me.
[12:44] Anne
    She might just have smiled
    at me once, I think.
[12:48] Phillips
    Now, I want you all to write a composition
    on this school you have your lessons in.
[12:54] Phillips
    Begin according to the order
    I've written on the blackboard.
[12:59] Phillips
    First, place. Where does it stand?
[13:00] Diana
    Dear Anne, Mother says I'm not to play
    with you or talk to you even in school.
[13:06] Diana
    Please don't be cross at me,
    because I love you as much as ever.
[13:16] Phillips
    And so,
[13:17] Phillips
    some of you wrote well
    and others, not so well,
[13:21] Phillips
    but you must all remember to read your
    own compositions and correct mistakes.
[13:22] Anne
    My own darling Diana:
[13:24] Anne
    Of course I am not cross at you.
[13:27] Anne
    Our spirits can commune.
[13:31] Anne
    I shall sleep with your letter
    under my pillow tonight.
[13:35] Anne
    Yours until death do us part,
    Anne or Cordelia Shirley.
[13:39] Phillips
    That will do.
[13:41] Gilbert
    Anne Shirley.
[13:44] Gilbert
    I know you're good at spelling.
[13:46] Gilbert
    Would you help me with a few—
[13:51] Jimmy
    Anne really won't say a word to you.
[13:54] Jimmy
    I guess you are rivals in class.
[13:59] Phillips
    Today, top honors in sums go to...
[14:02] Phillips
    Gilbert.
[14:06] Phillips
    Today, top honors in sums go to...
[14:09] Phillips
    Anne.
[14:15] Phillips
    Today, Gilbert and Anne have
    tied for first in sums.
[14:25] Anne
    I'm sure I'll never
    be able to like geometry.
[14:29] Anne
    There is no scope for
    imagination in it at all.
[14:32] Anne
    And Gil—I mean, some of
    the others are so smart at it.
[14:37] Anne
    Even Diana—
[14:39] Anne
    But I don't mind being beaten by Diana.
[14:43] Anne
    Even although we meet as strangers now
[14:47] Anne
    I still love her with an
    inextinguishable love.
[14:51] Anne
    It makes me very sad that
    I can't talk with her.
[14:56] Anne
    But really,
[14:57] Anne
    one can't stay sad very long
    in such an interesting world,
[15:03] Anne
    can one?
[15:05] Matthew
    Knowing you, you'll beat
    anything life throws at you.
[15:11] Marilla
    Now, finish your meal.
[15:13] Anne
    I will.
[15:19] Anne
    That winter witnessed a momentous event.
[15:23] Anne
    The Canadian Premier decided to
    come to Prince Edward Island.
[15:28] Anne
    Most of the grown-up people in
    Avonlea went to hear him speak.
[15:34] Anne
    But that wasn't the only happening of note.
[15:43] Anne
    It's nice to spend a night
    without Marilla sometimes.
[15:49] Anne
    Hello?
[15:51] Anne
    Whatever is the matter, Diana?!
[15:54] Anne
    Has your mother relented at last?
[15:57] Diana
    No!
[15:58] Diana
    Oh, Anne, do come quick!
[16:00] Diana
    Minnie May is awful sick!
[16:02] Diana
    She's got croup, I think!
[16:05] Diana
    Father and Mother are away to town
[16:07] Diana
    and Young Mary Joe
    doesn't know what to do,
[16:10] Diana
    and oh, Anne, I'm so scared!
[16:14] Anne
    Don't cry!
[16:15] Anne
    Matthew's gone for the doctor.
[16:18] Anne
    I know exactly what to do for croup.
[16:20] Anne
    You forget that I've looked after children.
[16:22] Anne
    Just wait till I get the ipecac bottle.
[16:36] Diana
    Well, Anne?
[16:38] Anne
    Minnie May has croup all right,
    just like the three pairs of twins.
[16:43] Anne
    But she's pretty bad.
[16:46] Anne
    Try to find fresh clothes
    and soft flannel cloths!
[16:48] Diana
    Right away.
[16:50] Anne
    Mary Joe, we must have lots of hot water.
[16:53] Mary
    Right!
[17:00] Anne
    Now Minnie May, drink this down.
[17:11] Anne
    Yes, that's a good girl.
[17:30] Diana
    You don't think she'll choke, do you?
[17:35] Diana
    Minnie May!
[17:36] Anne
    Minnie May!
[17:37] Anne
    Stay strong, Minnie May!
[17:48] Anne
    Matthew!
[17:49] Matthew
    Sorry. I had to go all
    the way to Spencervale.
[17:52] Doctor
    Where is the patient?
[17:53] Anne
    She's here.
[18:01] Doctor
    Sleeping soundly, I see.
[18:05] Doctor
    She'll be all right now.
[18:09] Anne
    I was awfully near giving up in despair.
[18:11] Anne
    I actually thought she was
    going to choke to death.
[18:14] Doctor
    Did you give her medicine?
[18:17] Anne
    I gave her ipecac,
[18:18] Anne
    and when the last dose went down,
     she began to get better right away.
[18:22] Anne
    You must just imagine my relief, doctor,
    because I can't express it in words.
[18:31] Anne
    You know there are some things that
    cannot be expressed in words.
[18:37] Anne
    Isn't it a wonderful morning?
[18:39] Anne
    I'm so glad I live in a world
    where there are white frosts.
[18:45] Anne
    I'm so sleepy. I can't go to school.
[18:49] Anne
    But I hate to stay home for
    Gil—some of the others
[18:56] Anne
    will get head of the class.
[19:00] Matthew
    Well now, I guess you'll manage all right.
[19:06] Doctor
    That little redheaded girl they have over
    at Cuthbert's saved that baby's life.
[19:12] Doctor
    It would have been too late
    by the time I got here.
[19:16] Mrs. Barry
    Did she really?
[19:19] Doctor
    I never saw anything like the eyes of her
    when she was explaining the case out to me.
[19:24] Doctor
    I can't express it in words.
[19:33] Anne
    Welcome home, Marilla.
[19:36] Marilla
    I guess you're hungry.
[19:38] Marilla
    There's soup in the pot,
[19:41] Marilla
    and you can get yourself some
    blue plum preserve out of the pantry.
[19:46] Marilla
    Matthew has been telling
    me about last night.
[19:51] Marilla
    I must say it was fortunate
    you knew what to do.
[19:54] Marilla
    I wouldn't have had any idea myself,
    for I never saw a case of croup.
[19:59] Anne
    Marilla, I—
[20:00] Marilla
    Don't talk while you're eating!
[20:04] Marilla
    I can tell by the look of you that
    you're just full up with speeches,
[20:08] Marilla
    but they'll keep.
[20:16] Marilla
    Mrs. Barry was here this afternoon, Anne.
[20:19] Marilla
    She says you saved Minnie May's life,
     and she is sorry for that affair of the wine.
[20:27] Marilla
    And she hopes you'll be good
    friends with Diana again.
[20:32] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, can I go right now?
[20:37] Anne
    I'll wash my dishes when I come back.
[20:39] Marilla
    Yes, yes, run along.
[20:42] Marilla
    I'll get your cap and wrap, so—
[20:47] Marilla
    I might as well call to the wind.
[20:49] Marilla
    It'll be a mercy if she doesn't
    catch her death of cold.
[20:54] Diana
    Anne!
[20:56] Anne
    Diana!
[21:19] Anne
    Just at present, I have
    a soul above red hair.
[21:21] Anne
    It must be lovely to be grown up, Marilla,
[21:25] Anne
    when just being treated as
    if you were is so nice.
[21:28] Marilla
    I don't know about that.
[21:31] Anne
    Diana showed me a new fancy crochet stitch.
[21:35] Anne
    And she gave me a beautiful card
    with a wreath of roses on it,
[21:39] Anne
    and a verse of poetry!
[21:42] Anne
    And we had fruitcake and...
[21:44] Diana
    Dear Anne,
[21:46] Diana
    If you love me
[21:49] Diana
    as I love you...
[21:53] Diana
    Nothing but death
[21:53] Anne
    Nothing but death
[21:58] Diana
    can part us two.
[21:58] Anne
    can part us two.

[00:01] Anne
    It seems like no time at all
    since I came to Green Gables,
[00:05] Anne
    but spring is over,
    and I've turned twelve.
[00:09] Anne
    Today ends the school term.
[00:12] Anne
    Tomorrow begins summer vacation.
[00:18] Marilla
    I never thought you were
    so fond of Mr. Phillips.
[00:22] Anne
    I wasn't really so very fond of him.
[00:25] Anne
    I just cried because all the others did.
[00:27] Phillips
    The time has come for us to part.
[00:27] Anne
    Ruby Gillis has always declared
    she hated Mr. Phillips,
[00:32] Anne
    but just as soon as he got up to make his
    farewell speech, she burst into tears.
[00:36] Anne
    Oh, aren't partings heartrending?
[00:42] Anne
    But one can't feel quite
    in the depths of despair
[00:45] Anne
    with two months vacation
    before them, can they?
[00:49] Anne
    And besides, we met the new minister
    and his wife coming from the station!
[00:53] Anne
    The new minister looks ever so kind.
[00:57] Anne
    His wife is very pretty!
[01:01] Anne
    She was dressed in blue muslin
    with lovely puffed sleeves.
[01:05] Anne
    Jane Andrews said she thought puffed sleeves
    were too worldly for a minister's wife,
[01:10] Anne
    but I know what it is to
    long for puffed sleeves.
[01:15] Marilla
    I certainly don't.
[01:18] Marilla
    Well, I'm glad you like
    the look of the wife.
[01:21] Marilla
    We must have them both up
    to tea some day soon.
[01:24] Anne
    Oh, how lovely!
[01:25] Marilla
    But don't say a word to Matthew about it.
[01:29] Marilla
    He'd find some excuse
    to be away that day.
[01:31] Marilla
    A new minister's wife will
    frighten him to death.
[01:37] Anne
    I'll be as secret as the dead.
[01:38] Anne
    And we'll have a new teacher this fall.
[01:43] Anne
    Isn't it wonderful meeting new people!

[03:21] Anne
    Wait!
[03:23] Anne
    I've got you!
[03:28] Diana
    I can't run another step.
[03:30] Ruby
    Me neither.
[03:31] Jane
    Then let's play dares next.
[03:34] Anne; Diana; Ruby; Josie
    Dares?
[03:36] Jane
    The rules are simple.
[03:37] Jane
    You dare someone to do something.
[03:40] Jane
    If they do it right, they win.
    If they can't, whoever dared them wins.
[03:45] Ruby
    That sounds like fun.
[03:47] Jane
    Who will start?
[03:48] Josie
    I will.
[03:50] Josie
    And I dare... Diana!
[03:53] Josie
    Hop on your right leg around the
    garden without stopping once!
[03:57] Josie
    You lose if your left foot
    touches the ground at all.
[04:00] Diana
    I'll do it!
[04:04] Anne
    You can do it, Diana!
[04:06] Anne
    Look at that.
    She'll win if she keeps this up.
[04:10] Josie
    I don't know about that.
[04:19] Diana
    I guess I lose.
[04:22] Josie
    That wasn't so hard.
[04:26] Anne
    I'll dare you next, Josie!
[04:30] Anne
    Walk the top of that fence!
[04:45] Josie
    That dare wasn't so hard at all.
[04:50] Anne
    I don't think it's such a very wonderful
    thing to walk a little, low, board fence.
[04:54] Anne
    I knew a girl who could walk
    the ridgepole of a roof.
[04:58] Josie
    Did you? But you couldn't, anyhow.
[05:01] Anne
    Couldn't I?
[05:02] Diana
    Anne!
[05:03] Josie
    Then prove it.
[05:06] Josie
    Anne Shirley,
[05:08] Josie
    I dare you to climb up there
    and walk the ridgepole.
[05:13] Diana
    Don't you do it, Anne.
[05:14] Diana
    You'll fall off and be killed!
[05:16] Diana
    Josie, it isn't fair to dare anybody
    to do anything so dangerous!
[05:20] Josie
    But Anne doesn't have to take the dare.
[05:24] Josie
    She could always refuse.
[05:28] Anne
    I'll do it.
[05:29] Diana
    Anne!
[05:35] Diana
    Please, Anne! Don't do it!
[05:38] Anne
    I must do it.
[05:40] Anne
    My honor is at stake.
[05:44] Anne
    I shall walk that ridgepole, Diana,
    or perish in the attempt.
[06:26] Diana
    Anne!
[06:32] Diana; Ruby; Jane; Josie
    Anne!
[06:40] Diana
    Anne!
[06:43] Diana
    Anne! Wake up!
[06:45] Diana
    Anne! Anne!
[06:47] Diana
    Oh, Anne.
[06:49] Diana
    Anne, are you killed?
[06:51] Anne
    I am not certain.
    I think I am rendered unconscious.
[06:54] Diana
    Do you hurt anywhere?
[06:56] Anne
    My ankle.
[07:04] Marilla
    Matthew! It's Anne!
[07:08] Marilla
    Anne!
[07:09] Marilla
    What has happened to her?!
[07:10] William
    I think she was walking our
    ridgepole and she fell off.
[07:14] Anne
    Don't be very frightened.
[07:16] Anne
    I expect I have sprained my ankle.
[07:18] Anne
    But I might have broken my neck.
[07:22] Anne
    Let us look on the bright side of things.
[07:26] Marilla
    B-Bring her in here!
[07:28] Marilla
    We must send for a doctor!
[07:30] Marilla
    Anne?
[07:31] Marilla
    Anne?! Anne!
[07:34] Doctor
    Her ankle is broken.
[07:36] Doctor
    Give it six weeks of rest.
[07:39] Doctor
    Take care.
[07:41] Marilla
    Thank you.
[07:43] Anne
    I think I have been punished so much that
    you needn't be very cross with me, Marilla.
[07:50] Anne
    Aren't you very sorry for me?
[07:53] Marilla
    It was your own fault.
[07:55] Anne
    But what would you have done, Marilla,
[07:57] Anne
    if you had been dared to walk a ridgepole?
[08:01] Marilla
    I'd have stayed on good firm
    ground and let them dare away.
[08:07] Anne
    I won't be able to go
    around for six weeks.
[08:09] Anne
    Isn't it fortunate
    I've got such an imagination?
[08:12] Anne
    It will help me through
    splendidly, I expect.
[08:15] Anne
    What do people who haven't any imagination
    do when they break their bones?
[08:26] Anne
    It isn't very pleasant to be laid up;
[08:29] Lynde
    Anne!
[08:30] Anne
    but there is a bright side to it.
[08:30] Lynde
    Oh, don't give me such a fright, child!
[08:34] Mrs. Allan
    How do you feel, Anne?
[08:34] Anne
    You find out how many friends you have.
[08:35] Mrs. Allan
    Everyone has been worried about you.
[08:38] Jane
    It was my fault, Miss Cuthbert!
    I started the daring.
[08:43] Josie
    I dared her to walk the ridgepole.
[08:47] Jane
    So don't punish Anne any more!
[08:49] Josie
    If you must be cross at
    someone, be cross at me!
[08:52] Marilla
    Why, Anne,
[08:54] Marilla
    what have you been putting
    into these girls' heads?
[08:57] Diana
    Ta-da!
[08:59] Anne
    I-Is that what I think it is?
[09:01] Diana
    Mrs. Morgan's latest!
[09:03] Diana
    You won't believe the reversal at the end!
[09:06] Anne
    I can't wait!
[09:08] Anne
    You've been over every day,
    and I can read all the books I like.
[09:12] Anne
    Invalid life isn't all bad, is it?
[09:15] Marilla
    Of all the absurdity!
[09:17] Marilla
    School is back in session.
[09:20] Marilla
    What about that new teacher?
[09:23] Diana
    Miss Stacy is perfectly sweet.
[09:28] Diana
    She has the loveliest fair curly hair
    and such fascinating eyes!
[09:34] Anne
    Every week she has a recitation
[09:38] Anne
    or takes everyone to study flowers
    and birds in the woods.
[09:41] Anne
    And they have physical culture exercises
    every morning and evening.
[09:43] Anne
    Have you ever seen a teacher
    half so splendid?!
[09:46] Marilla
    There's one thing plain to be seen, Anne,
[09:49] Marilla
    and that is that your fall off the
    Barry roof hasn't injured your tongue at all.
[10:07] Diana
    We've gotten up to learning this poem.
[10:19] Stacy
    Good morning, everyone.
[10:21] Students
    Good morning.
[10:23] Diana
    Well? Isn't she pretty?
[10:25] Anne
    Yes.
[10:26] Stacy
    Anne Shirley's ankle has healed,
    and she's come back to school today.
[10:32] Stacy
    It's a pleasure to meet you, Anne.
[10:34] Anne
    No, the pleasure is mine!
[10:43] Anne
    You made all this, Miss Stacy?
[10:45] Stacy
    Yes, I did.
[10:46] Diana
    How splendid!
[10:48] Stacy
    I'll follow your rules and share.
[10:51] Stacy
    Now, eat up.
[10:52] Anne
    Oh, thank you!
[10:56] Anne
    Scrumptious!
[10:57] Anne
    Please, have some of mine.
[10:59] Diana
    And mine.
[11:01] Stacy
    In that case, I don't mind if I do.
[11:09] Anne
    Wait, where is Miss Stacy?
[11:19] Stacy
    That concludes our lesson for today,
    but I have a suggestion to make.
[11:24] Stacy
    Why don't we all get up a
    concert this Christmas
[11:28] Stacy
    to help raise money for a schoolhouse flag?
[11:32] Stacy
    You can see the school doesn't have one.
[11:34] Stacy
    And besides, I'm sure a concert
    will be fun for everybody.
[11:38] Ruby
    That sounds wonderful!
[11:40] Carrie
    Simply lovely!
[11:41] Jimmy
    I'd like to join in.
[11:43] Fred
    And me!
[11:44] Stacy
    Then let's decide on a program at once.
[11:50] Anne
    I love Miss Stacy with my whole heart!
[11:53] Anne
    She has such a sweet voice.
[11:55] Anne
    When she pronounces my name I feel
    instinctively that she's spelling it with an e.
[12:01] Matthew
    Well now, that's nice.
[12:03] Anne
    And I'm going to recite at
    the Christmas concert!
[12:09] Marilla
    I only hope it does more than take time
    that ought to be put on your lessons.
[12:13] Marilla
    If you have time for gadding about,
    better spend it improving your geometry.
[12:19] Marilla
    I don't approve of children's getting up
    concerts and racing about to practices.
[12:37] Matthew
    Well now, I reckon it's going
    to be a pretty good concert.
[12:45] Matthew
    And I expect you'll do your part fine.
[12:53] Anne
    Thank you, Matthew.
[13:02] Anne
    "Dear native brook!"
[13:04] Anne
    "Wild streamlet of the West!"
[13:07] Diana
    Splendid, Anne!
[13:12] Josie
    Say, Anne, what will you
    wear to the concert?
[13:16] Anne
    What will I wear?
[13:17] Anne
    This, I suppose.
[13:24] Matthew
    They all have puffed
    sleeves! All but Anne!
[13:35] Clerk
    What can I do for you this
    evening, Mr. Cuthbert?
[13:38] Matthew
    Have you any—
[13:40] Matthew
    any—any—well now,
    say any garden rakes?
[13:44] Clerk
    Why, yes.
[13:50] Clerk
    Anything else tonight, Mr. Cuthbert?
[13:52] Matthew
    Well now, I might as well—take—
    that is—look at—buy some...
[13:56] Matthew
    some hayseed.
[13:59] Clerk
    We only keep hayseed in the spring.
[14:02] Matthew
    Oh, certainly—certainly—
    just as you say.
[14:05] Clerk
    Mr. Cuthbert! You haven't paid.
[14:06] Matthew
    Oh.
[14:08] Matthew
    Sorry about that.
[14:12] Matthew
    Well, now...
[14:14] Clerk
    Yes, Mr. Cuthbert?
[14:14] Matthew
    if it isn't too much trouble,
[14:18] Matthew
    I might as well—that is—
    I'd like to look at—at—some...
[14:23] Marilla
    Brown sugar!
[14:27] Marilla
    And we have plenty of rakes in the barn.
[14:31] Matthew
    I thought it might come in handy sometime.
[14:40] Lynde
    Pick out a dress for you to give Anne?
[14:41] Matthew
    I couldn't ask Marilla, you see.
[14:45] Lynde
    Have you something particular in mind?
[14:49] Matthew
    I dunno. The sleeves...
[14:51] Lynde
    Puffs? Of course!
[15:07] Lynde
    I have just what you ordered.
[15:10] Marilla
    And what did you order?
[15:15] Marilla
    So this is what Matthew has been grinning
    about to himself for two weeks, is it?
[15:24] Anne
    Merry Christmas, Marilla!
[15:26] Anne
    Merry Christmas, Matthew!
[15:28] Anne
    Isn't it a lovely Christmas?
    I'm so glad it's white.
[15:34] Anne
    What is the matter?
[15:40] Matthew
    Here, Anne.
[15:42] Anne
    Why, Matthew, is that for me?
[15:45] Matthew
    Open it and see.
[15:54] Matthew
    You can wear it to your concert tonight.
[16:03] Matthew
    Why—why—Anne,
    don't you like it?
[16:07] Anne
    Like it! Oh, Matthew!
[16:12] Anne
    Matthew, it's perfectly exquisite!
[16:17] Anne
    Oh, I can never thank you enough.
[16:20] Anne
    Oh, it seems to me this
    must be a happy dream.
[16:25] Marilla
    I must say, Anne, I don't
    think you needed the dress;
[16:30] Marilla
    but since Matthew has got it for you,
    see that you take good care of it.
[16:34] Anne
    Of course I will.
[16:35] Anne
    I swear by these sleeves that
    I'll make a success of it.
[16:40] Anne
    So you must come watch me recite.
[16:43] Matthew
    We will.
[16:48] Stacy
    That was Ruby and Jane
    in The Faerie Queene.
[16:52] Ruby
    Good luck.
[16:53] Anne
    Thank you.
[16:54] Stacy
    Next, a recitation of "To the River Otter."
[16:58] Stacy
    Anne Shirley, please step forward.
[17:43] Anne
    Dear native brook!
[17:46] Anne
    wild streamlet of the West!
[17:51] Anne
    Thy crossing plank,
    thy marge with willows grey,
[17:56] Anne
    And bedded sand that,
     veined with various dyes,
[18:01] Anne
    Gleamed through thy bright transparence!
[18:05] Anne
    On my way,
[18:07] Anne
    Visions of childhood!
[18:09] Anne
    oft have ye beguiled
[18:12] Anne
    Lone manhood's cares,
[18:16] Anne
    yet waking fondest sighs:
[18:20] Anne
    Ah! That once more
     I were a careless child!
[18:41] Diana
    Oh, Anne! That was simply splendid.
[18:44] Anne
    I couldn't have done without all of you.
[18:46] Stacy
    Next, Diana Barry will sing
    "The Island Hymn."
[18:51] Diana
    Oh, dear. I feel so nervous.
[18:54] Diana
    Can I really go up and sing like this?
[18:56] Anne
    Find your mother and father
    in the audience.
[19:00] Anne
    That should steady your nerves.
[19:02] Diana
    I could never!
[19:03] Diana
    Looking at all the people watching
    would only make it worse.
[19:06] Anne
    Then look at me.
[19:08] Anne
    You should be able to do that,
    since I'll be in the front row.
[19:14] Anne
    Now, look at me—nowhere else—and sing.
[19:17] Diana
    All right. I'll try.
[19:19] Anne
    I know you'll bring down the house.
[19:28] Anne
    Hasn't it been a brilliant evening?
[19:30] Diana
    Yes. I guess we must have made
    as much as ten dollars.
[19:34] Anne
    I meant your solo, Diana.
[19:38] Anne
    I felt prouder than you
    did when it was encored.
[19:41] Anne
    I just said to myself, "It is my dear
    bosom friend who is so honored."
[19:47] Diana
    You deserve all the praise, Anne.
[19:49] Diana
    You never took your eyes off me.
[19:52] Diana
    And you said something, didn't you?
[19:57] Diana
    What was it?
[19:59] Anne
    What did I say?
[20:11] Anne
    You'll do fine.
[20:14] Anne
    I think I said, "You'll do fine,"
    although I can't be certain.
[20:19] Diana
    Can't you?
[20:21] Diana
    I understand, "You'll do fine,"
    but don't you know what you said?
[20:25] Anne
    I said I can't be certain because I can't.
[20:29] Diana
    Speaking of uncertain things,
[20:31] Diana
    just before I got on stage...
[20:34] (Flashback) Diana
    Anne?
[20:38] Diana
    I saw Gilbert pick up a rose off the floor.
[20:42] Diana
    I think it was the rose
    you wore in your hair.
[20:46] Anne
    I-It's nothing to me
    what that person does.
[20:50] Diana
    Wait, Anne!
[20:52] Diana
    I can't be certain,
    but I think Gilbert is...
[20:56] Matthew
    Well now, I guess our Anne
    did as well as any of them.
[21:00] Marilla
    Yes, she did.
[21:01] Marilla
    I've been kind of opposed to this concert
    scheme, but I was proud of Anne tonight.
[21:06] Matthew
    She's brighter than we
    give her credit for.
[21:11] Marilla
    Yes, she'll need something more
    than Avonlea school by and by.
[21:17] Matthew
    We must see what we can do
    for her some of these days.
[21:26] Marilla
    Matthew, I guess the best thing we can do
    for her will be to send her to Queen's.
[21:36] Matthew
    Well now, it'll do no harm to
    be thinking it over off and on.
[21:44] Marilla
    Mrs. Lynde made that dress a mite too long,
    and it makes Anne look so tall.

[00:06] Anne
    As winter drew to an end,
[00:09] Anne
    I was thirteen
[00:11] Anne
    and all wrapped up in
    schoolwork for Miss Stacy.
[00:16] Anne
    Do you know how men propose?
[00:20] Anne
    Have you ever proposed, Matthew?
[00:22] Matthew
    Well now, no.
[00:24] Marilla
    Of course he hasn't.
    Neither of us is married.
[00:29] Marilla
    What's gotten into you now?
[00:30] Anne
    I'm writing a composition for school.
[00:33] Anne
    A grown-up, romantic story.
[00:36] Anne
    I'm finding it hard to imagine the proposal
    because I have no experience to go by.
[00:42] Anne
    Do you think I should ask Mrs. Lynde?
[00:45] Marilla
    What earthly use is it telling stories?
[00:48] Marilla
    You can waste time on stuff and
    nonsense when you're a grown woman.

    Oh, but I won't be a little girl forever.
[00:57] Marilla
    You're still a little girl now.
[01:04] Diana
    We only just turned in a composition.
[01:07] Diana
    The idea of Miss Stacy telling us to
    write a story out of our own heads!
[01:12] Anne
    Why, it's as easy as wink.
[01:14] Diana
    It's easy for you because
    you have an imagination.
[01:19] Diana
    I suppose you have your
    composition all done?
[01:22] Anne
    Almost, but not quite.
[01:25] Anne
    It's a sad, sweet story.
[01:29] Diana
    Oh, I could cry like a
    child just hearing that.
[01:38] Anne
    In two more years,
     we'll be really grown up.
[01:43] (Flashback) Marilla
    You're still a little girl now.
[01:45] Anne
    We'll be so much freer
    to do as we like then.
[01:51] Diana
    In four more years,
     we'll be able to put our hair up.
[01:55] Anne
    Oh, yes!
[01:59] Anne
    The Minstrel of the Woods!
[02:01] Diana
    What?
[02:02] Anne
    That's what I've decided to call him!
[02:06] Anne
    Oh, wait!
[02:08] Anne
    I have it, Diana. Why don't you
    make him the hero of your story?
[02:12] Diana
    You must be joking!
SIGN    Chapter 6
SIGN    I Thought Nothing Could
    Be As Bad As Red Hair
[03:55] Charlie
    That's the spirit, Jimmy!
[03:58] Anne
    What children!
[03:59] Anne
    My story is about Cordelia, a regal
    brunette with duskly-flashing eyes,
[04:06] Anne
    and Geraldine, a queenly blonde
    with velvety-purple eyes.
[04:10] Anne
    two beautiful maidens who
    lived in the same village
[04:13] Anne
    and were devotedly attached to each other.
[04:15] Diana
    Wait!
[04:16] Diana
    Shouldn't Geraldine have
    red hair like you, Anne?
[04:20] Anne
    No, never.
[04:22] Anne
    Red hair wouldn't be proper
    for the heroine of a story.
[04:25] Diana
    Do you think so?
[04:26] Anne
    I know so.
[04:28] Anne
    They simply must have midnight hair
    like you or golden hair like Ruby!
[04:33] Anne
    And then there was Bertram—
[04:35] Jimmy
    Gilbert!
[04:36] Gilbert
    I've got it!
[04:45] Gilbert
    Sorry.
[04:48] Jimmy
    You're hopeless at this.
[04:49] Charlie
    Me next.
[04:50] Jimmy
    Go for it!
[04:51] Anne
    Do you think those boys will ever grow up?
[04:53] Jimmy
    Nicely done.
[04:55] Anne
    And then there was Bertram, a young man
    only lately returned to the village.
[05:01] Anne
    It's called...
[05:02] Anne
    The Jealous Rival; or,
    in Death Not Divided
.
[05:08] Anne
    Bertram, young and handsome,
    yet impoverished,
[05:12] Anne
    fell in love with the sixteen-year-old
    Geraldine at first sight.
[05:18] Anne
    Then, one day...
[05:24] Anne
    the horses pulling Geraldine's
    carriage bolted.
[05:27] Geraldine
    Help!
[05:32] Anne
    But just then, Bertram came running,
[05:35] Anne
    and he saved Geraldine by a hair's breadth!
[05:47] Anne
    She fainted in his arms and he
    carried her home three miles.
[05:53] Diana
    Goodness. And then?
    Then what became of them?
[05:56] Anne
    Sweet love!
[05:59] Anne
    And soon enough, Bertram
    proposed to Geraldine.
[06:03] Diana
    Oh, how lovely!
[06:05] Diana
    How did he do it?
[06:07] Anne
    Well...
[06:08] Diana
    How did Bertram propose?
[06:13] Anne
    For all my imagination, Diana,
    there are things that even I cannot write.
[06:18] Diana
    Are there really?
[06:20] Ruby
    You're so good at that!
[06:22] Ruby
    Do you think I could try, too?
[06:24] Jimmy
    S-Sure. Here.
[06:27] Ruby
    Really? Thank you!
[06:29] Diana
    Ruby might be an authority on proposals,
    having so many sisters married.
[06:35] Ruby
    Let me think...
[06:37] Ruby
    My sister Susan's beau Malcolm said,
[06:41] Ruby
    "What do you say, darling pet, if we get
    hitched when my dad gives me the farm?"
[06:45] Ruby
    And Susan said, "Yes—no—
    I don't know—let me see."
[06:51] Ruby
    And there they were, engaged.
[06:54] Anne
    Th-That's all?
[06:56] Diana
    Didn't he go on his knees?
[06:57] Ruby
    Of course not!
[06:59] Ruby
    That's not done nowadays.
[07:03] Anne
    I think I will write the proposal
    from my imagination after all.
[07:08] Diana
    Yes.
[07:08] Lynde
    Proposals?!
[07:15] Lynde
    Don't take offense.
[07:17] Lynde
    I've heard what Miss Stacy's
    having them write.
[07:20] Lynde
    A strange way to teach, I must say.
[07:29] Marilla
    I fear she's wasting time
    better spent on lessons.
[07:34] Matthew
    Anne seems to enjoy it, though.
[07:38] Lynde
    I don't wonder you've no
    end of worries, Marilla.
[07:41] Lynde
    She may be bright and sweet enough,
    but her head is full of nonsense
[07:45] Lynde
    and there's never any knowing what
    shape it'll break out in next.
[07:51] Anne
    It's good to be home!
[07:52] Matthew
    Hello, Anne.
[07:54] Anne
    Good day, Mrs. Lynde!
[07:56] Lynde
    Good day to you!
[07:58] Marilla
    Surely she could come
    home with less racket.
[08:14] Anne
    Bertram went on his knees before
    Geraldine and proposed!
[08:19] Diana
    So he did kneel!
[08:21] Anne
    Then Bertram said,
[08:23] Anne
    "Take these, though they pale
    beside your radiant beauty,"
[08:27] Anne
    and gave her a diamond
    ring and a ruby necklace
[08:30] Anne
    and told her they would go to
    Europe for a wedding tour!
[08:35] Diana
    So Bertram wasn't impoverished!
[08:38] Anne
    No, he was immensely wealthy!
[08:41] Jimmy
    Sorry to keep you.
[08:42] Gilbert
    Oh, hey!
[08:44] Anne
    But Cordelia was simply furious when
    Geraldine told her about the engagement.
[08:49] Anne
    All her affection for Geraldine
    turned to bitter hate.
[08:53] Diana
    What?! But why?!
[08:54] Anne
    Because... Cordelia was secretly
    in love with Bertram herself!
[08:59] Diana
    No!
[09:00] Anne
    But she pretended to be
    Geraldine's friend the same as ever.
[09:04] Anne
    One evening she lured Geraldine out and...
[09:19] Anne
    But Bertram saw it all and he at
    once plunged into the current,
[09:24] Anne
    exclaiming, "I will save thee,
    my peerless Geraldine."
[09:36] Diana
    So they both died, then?
[09:40] Anne
    As for Cordelia, she went
    insane with remorse
[09:45] Anne
    before the graves in which her bosom friend
    and her first love reposed together.
[09:53] Ruby
    I feel so bad for them!
[09:55] Jane
    What a sad story!
[10:00] Jane
    How can I write a lovely story like that?
[10:04] Ruby
    I want to write one, too.
[10:05] Diana
    From this day forth, Anne,
    we are your pupils!
[10:10] Anne
    This was how the story club
    came into existence.
[10:20] Anne
    Diana, the people in your stories
    die as soon as you introduce them.
[10:26] Diana
    I don't know what to do with them next.
[10:30] Anne
    Then perhaps you should
    turn it into a mystery!
[10:35] Anne
    Make the Minstrel of the Woods
    a great detective!
[10:36] Stoat
    I have it!
[10:39] Diana
    That sounds like fun.
[10:41] Diana
    But can I really write it?
[10:42] Anne
    Never fear! I've millions of ideas.
[10:46] Anne
    Your story is too sensible, Jane.
[10:49] Anne
    Why don't you put some lovemaking into it?
[10:52] Jane
    What? But I'd feel so silly
    reading it out loud.
[10:57] Anne
    Then make it so sensible it
    will have a wholesome effect.
[11:01] Anne
    I know! Why don't you put a moral into it?
[11:04] Anne
    Write so all the good people are rewarded
    and all the bad ones are suitably punished.
[11:10] Jane
    There's an idea.
[11:12] Anne
    Now, Ruby, you have far too many proposals.
[11:18] Anne
    Surely three is enough for—
[11:20] Anne
    Hey, are you listening?
[11:25] Anne
    So we decided that in the story club,
[11:28] Anne
    we'll each write a story every week
    and read them to each other.
[11:34] Marilla
    Reading stories is bad enough
    but writing them is worse.
[11:39] Anne
    But we're so careful to put a
    moral into them all, Marilla.
[11:45] Anne
    I'm sure that must have
    a wholesome effect.
[11:47] Marilla
    Well, I'm not so sure!
[11:55] Diana
    And so, the Minstrel of the Woods solved
    the dreadful string of murders.
[12:03] Diana
    "The gluttons who ate too many poison
    mushrooms got their just desserts,"
[12:09] Diana
    he said and departed back into
    the depths of the wood.
[12:24] Stacy
    Thank you, Diana Barry.
[12:27] Stacy
    That was an interesting story.
[12:30] Stacy
    And I see you have a talent for
    leadership, Anne Shirley.
[12:38] Anne
    It kind of puzzles me.
[12:41] Anne
    Diana sent our very best
    to her Aunt Josephine.
[12:46] Anne
    She's a great reader,
    though she has a temper.
[13:11] Anne
    Miss Josephine Barry wrote back
[13:12] Anne
    that she had never read anything
    so amusing in her life.
[13:17] Matthew
    Well now, they must have been funny.
[13:20] Anne
    But they weren't, Matthew!
[13:22] Anne
    The stories were all very pathetic
    and almost everybody died!
[13:26] Anne
    Jane and Ruby almost always cry when—
[13:34] Anne
    Mr. Allan laughed at the same place.
[13:39] Anne
    I meant that to be the most pathetic part.
[14:02] Marilla
    It's a satisfaction to know that
    I'm going home to a snapping wood fire,
[14:05] Marilla
    instead of to the cold comfort of evenings
    before Anne came to Green Gables.
[14:24] Marilla
    Anne!
[14:29] Marilla
    Where is that girl?
[14:34] Marilla
    She's gadding off somewhere with Diana,
[14:40] Marilla
    writing stories or practicing
    dialogues or some such tomfoolery.
[14:43] Marilla
    She's just got to be pulled up short
    and sudden on this sort of thing.
[14:49] Marilla
    Her head is full of nonsense!
[14:51] Marilla
    But there! Here I am saying the very thing
    I was so riled with Rachel Lynde for.
[15:01] Marilla
    With all her faults, I never found her
    disobedient or untrustworthy before
[15:07] Marilla
    and I'm real sorry to find her so now.
[15:11] Matthew
    Well now, I dunno.
[15:18] Marilla
    She'll come hurrying and
    breathless any moment now!
[15:22] Matthew
    Maybe I should go meet
    her down by the road.
[15:26] Marilla
    I'll fetch a light.
[15:42] Marilla
    Anne? Are you there?
[15:56] Marilla
    Anne?
[16:11] Marilla
    Have you been asleep, Anne?
[16:14] Marilla
    What's wrong? Are you sick?
[16:17] Anne
    No.
[16:19] Marilla
    Matthew, Anne is here!
[16:24] Marilla
    Get right up this minute and come to supper—
[16:27] Anne
    No!
[16:28] Anne
    Please, Marilla, go away!
[16:31] Anne
    And don't look at me!
[16:33] Marilla
    Anne Shirley, whatever
    is the matter with you?
[16:35] Anne
    Oh, Marilla!
[16:37] Anne
    I'm in the depths of despair!
[16:40] Anne
    And I don't care who gets head in class
    or writes the best composition any more!
[16:45] Anne
    I don't suppose I'll ever
    be able to go anywhere again.
[16:48] Anne
    My career is closed!
[16:53] Marilla
    Anne Shirley!
[16:57] Marilla
    Anne?
[17:00] Anne
    Marilla...
[17:04] Anne
    Look at my hair.
[17:09] Marilla
    What have you done to your hair?
[17:12] Marilla
    I've been expecting something
    queer for some time.
[17:17] Matthew
    I'll be.
[17:20] Marilla
    Dyed your hair! Didn't you know
    it was a wicked thing to do?
[17:25] Anne
    I meant to be extra good in
    other ways to make up for it.
[17:31] Marilla
    Well, if I'd decided to dye my hair,
     I'd have dyed it a decent color at least.
[17:36] Anne
    But I didn't mean to dye it green.
[17:40] Anne
    He said it would turn my hair
    a beautiful raven black.
[17:46] Marilla
    Anne, who are you talking about?
[17:49] Anne
    The peddler that was here this afternoon.
[17:53] Marilla
    A peddler!
[17:54] Anne
    I think he had a very kind heart.
[17:57] Anne
    He told me he was working hard
    for his wife and children.
[18:00] Anne
    It touched my heart.
[18:03] Anne
    I wanted to buy something from him to
    help him in such a worthy object.
[18:06] Anne
    He had a big box full of
    very interesting things.
[18:09] Anne
    Then all at once, I saw
    the bottle of hair dye.
[18:15] Anne
    I only had fifty cents, and he
    said it cost seventy-five,
[18:21] Anne
    but, seeing it was me,
    he'd sell it for fifty.
[18:45] Anne
    Forgive me.
[18:47] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, when I saw the
    dreadful color it turned my hair,
[18:51] Anne
    I repented of being wicked, I can tell you.
[18:54] Anne
    And I've been repenting ever since.
[18:56] Anne
    Well, I hope you'll
    repent to good purpose.
[19:05] Anne
    How is it?
[19:06] Marilla
    It's no use, Anne.
[19:08] Anne
    The peddler said it wouldn't wash off.
[19:14] Marilla
    Then I guess he spoke the
    truth about one thing.
[19:17] Marilla
    At least take a good look at
    where your vanity has led you.
[19:23] Diana
    Never fear, Anne.
[19:26] Diana
    I haven't told anyone about your hair.
[19:29] Diana
    I'll take the secret to my grave.
[19:34] Anne
    I am Anne the green-haired of Green Gables,
[19:39] Anne
    the unhappiest girl in
    Prince Edward Island.
[19:56] Anne
    I've steeled myself!
[19:58] Anne
    Please cut it off at once,
    Marilla, and have it over.
[20:01] Marilla
    You're really certain?
[20:03] Anne
    I am!
[20:11] Anne
    I'm going to weep all the time you're
    cutting it off, if it won't interfere.
[20:20] Marilla
    It won't.
[20:42] Anne
    I'll never, never look at myself
    again until my hair grows.
[20:47] Anne
    Yes, I will, too!
[20:48] Anne
    I'll see how ugly I am.
[20:52] Anne
    And I won't try to
    imagine it away, either.
[21:06] Anne
    This is me.
[21:09] Anne
    This is me now.
[21:14] Student
    What happened, Anne?
[21:16] Student
    What happened to your hair?
[21:22] Josie
    Don't you know, Diana?
[21:24] Josie
    You are her best friend.
[21:28] Josie
    You look like a scarecrow!
[21:32] Josie
    Duh-dun!
[21:39] Anne
    I never thought I could like
    my red hair, of all things,
[21:43] Anne
    but now I know I did, because it
    was so long and thick and curly
[21:48] Anne
    and it suited me.
[21:58] Stacy
    Now, let's begin our lesson.

[00:02] Diana
    Anne and I have been
    playing here all summer.
[00:06] Ruby
    What a lovely place.
[00:08] Jane
    Oh, look!
[00:10] Jane
    A landing place, and a boat, too.
[00:13] Diana
    That's my dad's flat-bottomed dory.
[00:16] Diana
    Would you like to tow out in it?
[00:18] Diana
    Or maybe go fishing?
[00:19] Jane
    Either sounds nice.
[00:24] Anne
    I know. Why don't we dramatize Elaine?
[00:27] Diana
    From the legends of King Arthur?
[00:30] Anne
    Yes. The Lady Elaine loved Sir Lancelot,
[00:34] Anne
    but her passion failed to move him.
[00:37] Diana
    Because Lancelot loved Guinevere,
     the wife of his liege lord, Arthur.
[00:43] Jane
    Elaine dies of grief.
[00:46] Ruby
    So her family floats her body down the river
    in a barge, like she wrote in her will.
[00:51] Anne
    And her beloved Lancelot
    finds it downstream.
[00:55] Diana
    Anne, what a wonderful idea!
[00:57] Diana
    If we let the flat drift
    from here to the headland,
[01:00] Diana
    we can play Elaine's
    tragic love perfectly.
[01:05] Anne
    Then who will be Elaine?
[01:09] Diana
    I could never have the courage
    to float down there.
[01:13] Jane
    I don't mind floating down when there's
    two or three of us in the flat.
[01:16] Ruby
    But to lie down and pretend
    I was dead—I just couldn't.
[01:19] Anne
    But then who will be Elaine?
[01:22] Jane
    I think you should, Anne.
[01:24] Ruby
    Yes, you, Anne.
[01:26] Anne
    But it's so ridiculous to
    have a redheaded Elaine.
[01:29] Ruby
    Your hair is ever so much darker than
    it used to be before you cut it.
[01:34] Diana
    Yes, and I think it is real pretty.
[01:37] Anne
    Do you really think so?
SIGN    Chapter 7
SIGN    I've Been Making Mistakes,

[03:18] Anne
    Jane, you will be Elaine's father.
[03:22] Jane
    All right.
[03:23] Anne
    Diana and Ruby will be the brothers.
[03:25] Diana; Ruby
    Yes.
[03:26] Anne
    What will serve for a white lily?
[03:29] Diana
    How about this?
[03:32] Anne
    An iris? That will do nicely.
[03:35] Jane
    Why, you'd think she was really dead.
[03:38] Jane
    It makes me feel frightened, girls.
[03:40] Jane
    Do you suppose it's really
    right to act like this?
[03:42] Anne
    It's perfectly all right.
[03:44] Anne
    Now, I won't say any more.
[03:46] Anne
    It's silly for Elaine to be
    talking when she's dead.
[03:53] Diana
    Sister, farewell forever.
[03:58] Ruby
    Farewell, sweet sister.
[04:02] Jane
    Oh daughter of mine, farewell.
[04:18] Diana
    Now, let us all go and wait for
    Elaine at the lower headland.
[04:23] Diana
    As Lancelot and the King
    and his wife, Guinevere.
[04:33] Anne
    Nothing could be more romantic.
[04:37] Anne
    I wonder how a person must feel,
    dying on such a peaceful day.
[04:49] Anne
    This is no time for being dead!
[04:51] Anne
    How should a person feel when the
    barge she's boarded is sinking?!
[04:56] Anne
    C-Can anybody hear me?!
[04:59] Anne
    Anybody?!
[05:01] Anne
    Be calm, Anne.
[05:03] Anne
    You mustn't lose your self-possession
    at a time like this.
[05:08] Anne
    Dear God, if you haven't forsaken me,
[05:11] Anne
    please take the flat close to a pile
[05:16] Anne
    and I'll do the rest.
[05:26] Jane
    Look, there's Elaine!
[05:28] Ruby
    She's coming straight toward us!
[05:30] Diana
    Boats from that landing place
    always drift to this headland.
[05:38] Jane
    Oh, no! Anne's sunk!
[05:40] Ruby
    We must get help!
[05:42] Anne
    Here I am!
[05:44] Anne
    I'm right here!
[05:48] Anne
    M-My arms...
[05:50] Anne
    won't last much longer.
[05:53] Anne
    Oh, Mrs. Hammond, why didn't
    you teach me to swim?!
[06:07] Gilbert
    Anne Shirley!
    How on earth did you get there?
[06:13] Gilbert
    Be careful. Easy does it.
[06:16] Gilbert
    Let go.
[06:24] Gilbert
    What has happened, Anne?
[06:27] Anne
    We were playing Elaine.
[06:31] Anne
    I had to drift down to Camelot.
[06:33] Anne
    The flat began to leak and...
[06:41] Anne
    Will you be kind enough to...
[07:14] Anne
    I'm very much obliged to you.
[07:18] Gilbert
    Anne, look here.
[07:20] Gilbert
    Can't we be good friends?
[07:24] Gilbert
    I'm awfully sorry I made
    fun of your hair that time.
[07:30] Gilbert
    Honest I am.
[07:34] Gilbert
    Let's be friends.
[07:36] Gilbert
    Let's be friends.
[07:45] (Flashback) Gilbert
    Carrots.
[07:47] (Flashback) Gilbert
    Carrots.
[07:50] Anne
    No, I shall never be friends with you,
[07:55] Anne
    and I don't want to be!
[08:04] Gilbert
    All right!
[08:08] Gilbert
    I'll never ask you to be
    friends again, Anne Shirley.
[08:22] Anne
    Why did I answer him like that?
[08:26] Anne
    Wait. Do I... regret it?
[08:30] Diana
    Oh, Anne!
[08:34] Diana
    What a relief!
[08:36] Diana
    You mean Gilbert rescued you?
[08:38] Diana
    How splendid of him!
[08:41] Jane
    Why, it's so romantic!
[08:43] Jane
    Of course you'll speak to him after this.
[08:46] Anne
    Of course I won't.
[08:47] Anne
    And I don't want ever to hear
    the word romantic again.
[08:50] Diana; Jane
    What?
[08:50] Anne
    I'm awfully sorry you were
    so frightened, girls.
[08:52] Anne
    We've gone and lost your
    father's flat, Diana.
[08:56] Anne
    Everything I do gets me or my
    dearest friends into a scrape.
[09:02] Marilla
    You impossible child!
[09:04] Marilla
    I went and apologized to Mr. Barry,
[09:08] Marilla
    though he forgave you because he felt bad
    for neglecting the hole in that dory.
[09:13] Marilla
    And then there were the Blythes.
[09:18] Marilla
    Will you ever have any sense, Anne?
[09:22] Marilla
    You came within an inch of
    losing your fool life.
[09:27] Anne
    Oh, yes, I think I will, Marilla.
[09:29] Anne
    I think my prospects of becoming
    sensible are brighter now than ever.
[09:32] Marilla
    I don't see how.
[09:34] Anne
    Ever since I came to Green Gables,
    I've been making mistakes,
[09:38] Anne
    but each mistake has helped
    to cure me of my shortcomings.
[09:44] Marilla
    And what did nearly drowning
    in the pond cure you of?
[09:48] Anne
    Today's mistake is going to
    cure me of being too romantic.
[09:52] Anne
    Romance is not appreciated now.
[09:56] Anne
    I feel quite sure that you will soon see a
    great improvement in me in this respect.
[10:02] Marilla
    I'm sure I hope so.
[10:09] Matthew
    Anne.
[10:12] Matthew
    Well now, don't give up
    all your romance, Anne.
[10:20] Matthew
    Not too much, of course.
[10:24] Matthew
    A little of it is a good thing.
[10:39] Anne
    I'm home!
[10:41] Marilla
    So you are.
[10:42] Marilla
    And late, too.
[10:44] Anne
    Diana and I were only over
    in the Haunted Wood.
[10:47] Marilla
    Miss Stacy was here this afternoon.
[10:51] Anne
    Oh!
[10:53] Anne
    She caught me reading Ben-Hur in
    school yesterday afternoon.
[11:00] Marilla
    She never mentioned such a thing to me.
[11:02] Marilla
    Miss Stacy wants to organize a
    class among her advanced students
[11:06] Marilla
    who mean to study for the entrance
    examination into Queen's.
[11:10] Marilla
    And she came to ask Matthew and me if
    we would like to have you join it.
[11:16] Anne
    Truly?
[11:18] Anne
    But won't it be...
[11:19] Marilla
    I guess you needn't worry
    about the expense.
[11:22] Marilla
    You can join the Queen's
    class if you like, Anne.
[11:26] Anne
    Oh, Marilla!
[11:29] Anne
    Of course I'd love to!
[11:31] Anne
    I'm extremely grateful
    to you and Matthew.
[11:34] Anne
    And I'll study as hard as I can and
    do my very best to be a credit to you.
[11:39] Marilla
    I dare say you will.
[11:45] Stacy
    Well then, let's stop here for today.
[11:48] Stacy
    Queen's class, stay behind.
[11:51] Stacy
    Everybody else, please take
    care getting home.
[11:54] Students
    Yes, Miss Stacy.
[11:58] Diana
    Well, I'll be going now.
[12:00] Anne
    All right.
[12:01] Anne
    Till tomorrow.
[12:02] Anne
    I'll see you tomorrow...
[12:05] Diana
    Study hard.
[12:08] Anne
    We've never been separated in anything.
[12:10] Diana
    Goodbye.
[12:15] Anne
    Now Diana will have to walk home alone
    through Lover's Lane and Violet Vale.
[12:24] Stacy
    We should all have a purpose in life
[12:28] Stacy
    and pursue it faithfully.
[12:32] Stacy
    But we must first make sure
    that it is a worthy purpose.
[12:36] Marilla
    You'll just have to live with it.
[12:39] Marilla
    Diana's parents don't intend
    to send her to Queen's.
[12:45] Anne
    It is a lesson that we can't have things
    perfect in this imperfect world.
[12:51] Marilla
    Now, what do you think of
    the Queen's class?
[12:55] Anne
    I think the Queen's class is going
    to be extremely interesting.
[12:58] Anne
    The competition makes
    studying feel worthwhile.
[13:01] Marilla
    I'm glad to hear it.
[13:03] Anne
    We discussed our life's
    ambitions on the walk home.
[13:07] Marilla
    Did you? That's an awfully
    long time to be thinking of.
[13:10] Anne
    Miss Stacy told us it is
    important to have one.
[13:16] Anne
    We all thought it over.
[13:18] Anne
    Ruby says...
[13:19] (Flashback) Ruby
    My ambition is marriage.
[13:22] (Flashback) Ruby
    I'll teach for two years after I get through,
    and then I intend to be married.
[13:29] Anne
    And Jane says...
[13:30] (Flashback) Jane
    I'll devote my whole life to teaching.
[13:34] (Flashback) Jane
    And I'll never, never marry.
[13:36] (Flashback) Ruby
    Why not?
[13:37] (Flashback) Jane
    Because you are paid a salary for teaching,
    but a husband won't pay you anything.
[13:43] (Flashback) Jane
    Just look at my father.
[13:45] (Flashback) Jane
    He's meaner than second skimmings.
[13:49] Anne
    Josie says...
[13:51] (Flashback) Josie
    I won't have to earn my own living.
[13:54] (Flashback) Josie
    I'm just going to college
    for education's sake.
[13:56] (Flashback) Anne
    Your family does have plenty of money.
[13:59] (Flashback) Josie
    Yes, unlike orphans who are
    living on charity.
[14:05] (Flashback) Josie
    It must be hard, having to hustle to
    make your own way in the world.
[14:11] Marilla
    Take no notice of that rude girl!
[14:15] Anne
    I don't intend to.
[14:16] Anne
    Moody Spurgeon is going to be a minister.
[14:21] Anne
    Charlie Sloane says he's
    going to go into politics.
[14:24] Marilla
    He'll have a hard time of it.
    The Sloanes are all honest people.
[14:29] Anne
    That's true enough.
[14:31] Marilla
    Tell me,
[14:32] Marilla
    what is Gilbert Blythe going to be?
[14:36] (Flashback) Gilbert
    All right!
[14:39] (Flashback) Gilbert
    I'll never ask you to be
    friends again, Anne Shirley.
[14:46] Anne
    I don't happen to know what Gilbert Blythe's
    ambition in life is—if he has any.
[14:52] Marilla
    In that case, Anne, what about yours?
[14:58] Anne
    M-Mine?
[15:00] Anne
    Well, I suppose...
[15:03] Anne
    My purpose in life is to...
[15:07] Anne
    What an awful dilemma.
[15:09] Anne
    I need to find a purpose worth devoting
    my life to right this minute.
[15:16] Anne
    I wonder if Diana was
    all right on her own.
[15:20] Diana
    I'll be fine.
[15:22] Diana
    Carrie and Julia say they'll
    walk home with me today.
[15:25] Diana
    So concentrate on your studies, Anne.
[15:29] Anne
    Th-Thank you.
[15:31] Diana
    Your purpose in life?
[15:34] Anne
    Yes.
[15:35] Anne
    So, what would you think of living
    together when we grow up?
[15:40] Anne
    We'll both earn our livings and be together
    even when we're nice old maids!
[15:45] Diana
    That does sound like fun.
[15:46] Anne
    Doesn't it just?
[15:47] Diana
    But wait. A purpose in life should
    have a worthier object.
[15:53] Diana
    Say, marrying some wild,
    dashing, wicked young man
[15:57] Diana
    and reforming him with my love.
[16:00] Diana
    Doesn't that sound more noble?
[16:13] Stacy
    Why, Anne. What brings you here?
[16:15] Anne
    Miss Stacy...
[16:17] Stacy
    Yes?
[16:18] Anne
    How should I go about finding
    my purpose in life?
[16:23] Anne
    Everybody else knows just
    what they want to be,
[16:28] Anne
    but I haven't made up my mind yet.
[16:34] Stacy
    I don't think you need to rush.
[16:37] Stacy
    You've been doing good work,
[16:40] Stacy
    so you should take your time looking.
[16:43] Anne
    But what if I never find it?
[16:46] Stacy
    I can see what I said has
    been bothering you.
[16:50] Stacy
    Think of it this way, then.
[16:53] Stacy
    Passing the entrance into Queen's
    is your purpose for the time being,
[16:57] Stacy
    and you'll think of what comes
    next once you've done that.
[17:01] Stacy
    A good ambition needn't be a grand one.
[17:05] Stacy
    Try to make the most of
    each day as it comes.
[17:09] Anne
    "Make the most of each day."
[17:14] Anne
    All right! I'll try my best.
[17:17] Stacy
    Don't work yourself to any extreme, now.
[17:19] Anne
    Thank you very much.
[17:20] Anne
    If you'll excuse me.
[17:23] Stacy
    Take care.
[17:28] Anne
    Miss Stacy! I l-l-love you!
[17:32] Stacy
    My!
[17:35] Anne
    The days slipped by,
[17:40] Anne
    spring came again,
[17:42] Anne
    and I turned fourteen.
[17:45] Stacy
    Two of you earned full marks
    on yesterday's test.
[17:49] Stacy
    Anne and Gilbert.
[17:54] Anne
    Day by day, I made the most
    of what lay before me,
[17:59] Anne
    and each day shone like a golden
    bead on the necklace of the year.
[18:07] Anne
    When summer came,
    and studies stalled a wee bit,
[18:13] Anne
    rumors ran at large through the school.
[18:17] Harry
    Hey, have you heard?
[18:18] Sam
    Oh, I heard all right.
[18:20] Alice
    She got offered a position
    in her home district.
[18:23] Julia
    Did she really?
[18:25] Anne
    Good morning.
[18:26] Diana
    Good morning.
[18:27] Jane
    Have you heard?
[18:28] Anne
    Heard what?
[18:29] Jane
    Miss Stacy is going to leave the
    Avonlea School this summer.
[18:36] Diana
    It's only a rumor. We can't be sure yet.
[18:40] Anne
    Yes, but still...
[18:42] Diana
    Why not ask Miss Stacy herself?
[18:47] Anne
    I can't. I don't dare.
[18:50] Diana
    Neither do I.
[18:51] Stacy
    The term ends today.
[18:55] Stacy
    But you've done good work this past year,
[18:58] Stacy
    and you deserve a good, jolly vacation.
[19:04] Stacy
    Have the best time you can
    in the out-of-door world
[19:06] Stacy
    and lay in a good stock of health
    and vitality and ambition.
[19:10] Stacy
    It will be the tug of war, you know—
    the last year before the Entrance.
[19:17] Stacy
    Is something the matter?
[19:20] Josie
    I have a question.
[19:22] Stacy
    Yes? What is it?
[19:23] Josie
    Are you going to be back
    next year, Miss Stacy?
[19:28] Josie
    I've heard you've been offered a position
    in another school and mean to accept.
[19:34] Anne
    Please don't leave, Miss Stacy!
[19:38] Gilbert
    I want to learn so much more from you!
[19:42] Moody
    So do I!
[19:43] Jane
    Don't go away!
[19:44] Ruby
    Stay on, Miss Stacy!
[19:46] Students
    Please! Don't go!
[19:51] Stacy
    All of you...
[19:55] Stacy
    Yes, I was offered another school.
[20:04] Stacy
    But I have decided
    to come back to Avonlea.
[20:11] Stacy
    I thought of taking a school
    in my home district,
[20:15] Stacy
    but to tell the truth,
[20:16] Stacy
    I've grown so interested in my pupils here
    that I found I couldn't leave them.
[20:21] Stacy
    So I'll stay and see you through.
[20:26] Charlie; Moody
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
[20:30] Charlie; Jane; Moody
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
[20:34] Stacy
    All of you...
[20:37] Stacy
    Thank you.
[20:43] Anne
    Listen, Jane. I've found
    my purpose in life.
[20:50] Anne
    I've had a vague idea of it all this time,
[20:54] Anne
    but today it turned to certainty.
[20:58] Jane
    You too, Anne?
[21:03] Anne
    Yes.
[21:04] Anne
    We all have.
[21:12] Anne
    Marilla, I'm going to be a teacher!
[21:15] Anne
    I'll get a First-Class license and
    be a teacher like Miss Stacy!
[21:20] Anne
    That is my purpose!
[21:22] Marilla
    I told you, you needn't think so grand.
[21:25] Marilla
    But I had a feeling you'd say that.
[21:28] Anne
    I shall take more interest
    than ever in my studies now.
[21:33] Marilla
    I dare say you'll get along well enough.
[21:36] Marilla
    You needn't rush to any extreme of
    killing yourself over your books.
[21:40] Marilla
    There is no hurry.
[21:41] Anne
    Yes, I know.
[21:43] Anne
    But I must tell Matthew about—
[21:47] Marilla
    Matthew?
[21:53] Marilla
    Matthew!
[21:55] Marilla
    What's the matter with you?
[22:00] Marilla
    Matthew!

[00:01] Anne
    I decided that it was my
    ambition to be a teacher.
[00:06] Anne
    That very day, Matthew fell
    down clutching at his heart.
[00:12] Anne
    Though, to my great relief,
    no lasting harm came of it.
[00:18] Lynde
    And how has Matthew been since?
[00:21] Marilla
    He had a bad spell, but he's
    all right again now.
[00:26] Lynde
    I'm glad to hear it.
[00:28] Marilla
    The doctor says he must be
    careful to avoid excitement.
[00:32] Marilla
    That's easy enough, for Matthew doesn't go
     about looking for excitement by any means.
[00:37] Lynde
    That he doesn't.
[00:39] Marilla
    But he's not to do any
    very heavy work either
[00:42] Marilla
    and you might as well tell Matthew
    not to breathe as not to work.
[00:48] Lynde
    And so you hired the boy?
[00:51] Marilla
    Yes. His name's Jerry Buote.
[00:54] Marilla
    We hired him to help with the heavy work.
[00:57] Lynde
    That does sound helpful.
[01:00] Anne
    Marilla, where is today's paper?!
[01:02] Marilla
    It's right there.
[01:06] Marilla
    What has you in such a hurry?
[01:09] Anne
    The pass list for Queen's is out.
[01:12] Anne
    M-My name isn't on it!
[01:16] Anne
    And Gilbert came first?
[01:19] Anne
    No...
[01:20] Anne
    I... I don't believe it!
[01:25] Anne
    No!
[01:35] Stacy
    That's enough, class.
[01:38] Stacy
    It sounds as though one of
    us is too hungry to go on.
[01:43] Stacy
    Why don't we break for lunch?

[03:27] Diana
    Whatever did you doze off in class for?
[03:30] Diana
    It hardly sounds like you.
[03:32] Anne
    I had a dream that
    I flunked the Entrance.
[03:35] Diana
    Oh, dear.
[03:36] Stacy
    I can see you're wearing yourself out.
[03:39] Anne
    Miss Stacy.
[03:40] Stacy
    The exams are not till next
    summer, a long time off yet.
[03:45] Stacy
    Your head will burst if you cram it
    too full, and I wouldn't want that!
[03:52] Stacy
    Remember, learning should be fun.
[03:55] Anne
    Yes, Miss Stacy.
[03:59] Anne
    It was a jolly, busy, happy
    swift-flying winter.
[04:04] Anne
    Then came spring, and with
    it my fifteenth year.
[04:13] Anne
    Here.
[04:14] Marilla
    Th-Thank you.
[04:25] Matthew
    Jerry's a great help.
    He does whatever's needed.
[04:31] Matthew
    Marilla, what's come over you?
[04:35] Marilla
    I was thinking about Anne.
[04:38] Marilla
    She's got to be such a big girl.
[04:41] Matthew
    She has, hasn't she?
[04:44] Marilla
    And she'll probably be
    away from us next winter.
[04:50] Matthew
    She'll be able to come home often.
[04:54] Matthew
    The branch railroad will be
    built to Carmody by that time.
[05:02] Marilla
    I suppose so.
[05:09] Marilla
    You don't chatter half
    as much as you used to,
[05:14] Marilla
    Anne, nor use half as many big words.
[05:18] Marilla
    What has come over you?
[05:21] Anne
    I don't know—I don't
    want to talk as much.
[05:25] Anne
    It's almost a pity, isn't it,
[05:27] Anne
    now that I'm really growing big enough
    to say big words if I did want to.
[05:31] Anne
    It's fun to be almost
    grown up in some ways,
[05:35] Anne
    but there's so much to learn and do and
    think that there isn't time for big words.
[05:42] Marilla
    Do you think you'll be able
    to get through the Entrance?
[05:45] Anne
    I'm enjoying my studies.
[05:48] Anne
    But it haunts me.
[05:52] Anne
    Sometimes I wake up in the night and
    wonder what I'll do if I don't pass.
[05:57] Anne
    If I don't get through, I will never recover
    sufficiently to enjoy another spring.
[06:04] Marilla
    Why, go to school next year and try again.
[06:08] Anne
    Oh, I don't believe
     I'd have the heart for it.
[06:11] Anne
    It would be such a disgrace to
    fail, especially if Gil—
[06:16] Anne
    if the others passed.
[06:23] Anne
    Weren't Miss Stacy's
    farewell words wonderful?
[06:27] Anne
    There wasn't a dry eye in the school.
[06:29] Diana
    It does seem as if it was the end
    of everything, doesn't it?
[06:33] Anne
    You oughtn't to feel
    half as badly as I do.
[06:38] Anne
    You'll be back again next winter,
[06:40] Anne
    but I suppose I've left the
    dear old school forever—
[06:43] Anne
    if I have good luck, that is.
[06:47] Diana
    It won't be a bit the same.
    Miss Stacy won't be there,
[06:52] Diana
    nor you nor Jane nor Ruby probably.
[06:55] Anne
    Please Diana, don't cry.
[07:00] Anne
    You'll start me off again.
[07:07] Diana
    The Entrance is just next week now, isn't it?
[07:11] Anne
    Yes.
[07:12] Anne
    Miss Stacy said that when
    we arrive in town,
[07:15] Anne
    we are to go out walking and not think about
    the exams at all and go to bed early.
[07:21] Anne
    It's good advice, but I expect
    it will be hard to follow.
[07:23] Diana
    I do wish I were going in with you.
[07:28] Diana
    You can't cram every night,
    and you're sure to be homesick.
[07:35] Anne
    I'll write to you.
[07:36] Diana
    Oh yes, do!
[07:38] Anne
    I'll write Tuesday night and
    tell you how the first day goes.
[07:42] Diana
    I'll be haunting the post
    office Wednesday morning.
[07:46] Anne
    The post won't come as fast as that, Diana.
[07:49] Diana
    I guess it won't.
[08:01] Postman
    Whoa, there.
[08:03] Diana
    Pardon me! Do you have a letter
    for me, by any chance?
[08:05] Postman
    Let me see.
[08:07] Postman
    Diana... Diana Barry.
[08:10] Postman
    Here you are, miss.
[08:11] Diana
    Oh, thank you!
[08:17] Anne
    Dearest Diana,
[08:18] Anne
    here it is Tuesday night, and
    I'm writing this in my boarding house room.
[08:23] Anne
    When we reached the Academy,
[08:25] Anne
    there were scores of students
    there from all over the Island.
[08:29] Anne
    Jane and I sat together and Jane was
    so composed that I envied her.
[08:35] Anne
    I wondered if I looked as I felt
[08:37] Anne
    and if they could hear my heart
    thumping clear across the room.
[08:42] Anne
    My hands grew cold then and my
    head fairly whirled around
[08:47] Anne
    as I picked the English
    examination sheet.
[08:51] Anne
    Just one awful moment and then
    everything cleared up in my mind,
[08:55] Anne
    for I knew I could do something
    with that paper anyhow.
[09:01] Anne
    At noon, we went home for dinner and then
    back again for history in the afternoon.
[09:04] Anne
    The history was a pretty hard paper.
[09:06] Anne
    Still, I think I did fairly well today.
[09:07] Jane
    How was it?
[09:08] Gilbert
    Passable, I guess.
[09:11] Anne
    Ruby was in hysterics when
    I reached their boardinghouse;
[09:13] Anne
    she had just discovered a fearful mistake
    she had made in her English paper.
[09:18] Anne
    When she recovered, we went
    uptown and had an ice cream.
[09:24] Anne
    How we wished you had been with us.
[09:27] Anne
    Oh, Diana, if only the geometry
    examination were over!
[09:33] Anne
    But there, the sun will go on rising and
    setting whether I fail in geometry or not.
[09:40] Anne
    I think I'd rather it
    didn't go on if I failed!
[09:45] Anne
    Yours devotedly, Anne.
[10:03] Marilla
    You'd think they hadn't seen
    each other in decades.
[10:08] Diana
    Anne!
[10:10] Anne
    Diana!
[10:11] Diana
    Anne!
[10:13] Anne
    You old darling!
[10:14] Diana
    It's perfectly splendid
    to see you back again.
[10:16] Diana
    It seems like an age
    since you went to town.
[10:17] Anne
    To me, too, Diana.
[10:19] Diana
    Oh, Anne! How did you get along?
[10:22] Anne
    Pretty well, I think, in
    everything but the geometry.
[10:25] Diana
    How did the others do?
[10:27] Anne
    The girls say they know they didn't pass,
    but I think they did pretty well.
[10:32] Anne
    But we don't really know anything about
    it and won't until the pass list is out.
[10:36] Diana
    I can hardly wait.
[10:38] Anne
    Fancy living a fortnight in such suspense!
[10:41] Anne
    I wish I could go to sleep and
    never wake up until it is over.
[10:46] Diana
    Oh, you'll pass all right. Don't worry.
[10:49] Anne
    I certainly hope so!
[10:51] Anne
    Oh, how good it is to be back!
[10:54] Anne
    Green Gables is the dearest,
    loveliest spot in the world.
[11:02] Diana
    Well?
[11:04] Anne
    It's not here. It was supposed
    to be out in a fortnight.
[11:11] Martin
    Say, who do you think
    will pass the Entrance?
[11:14] Lewis
    Anne and Gilbert are the
    best Avonlea's got.
[11:18] Martin
    Want to bet on which of
    them comes out on top?
[11:20] Lewis
    You're on!
[11:21] Josie
    I'll take that bet, too.
[11:23] Josie
    Anyone can see that
    Gilbert will place higher.
[11:26] Martin
    You've got that right.
[11:27] Lewis
    I'm for Gilbert, too.
[11:28] Josie
    We can't all bet on Gilbert.
[11:31] Anne
    I'd rather not pass at all than not
    come out pretty well up on the list!
[11:36] Diana
    Anne, wait!
[11:40] Diana
    I don't think the list is out yet.
[11:42] Gilbert
    Oh, it isn't?
[11:42] Diana
    Anne, wait!
[11:49] Marilla
    Won't you eat something, Anne?
[11:53] Anne
    My appetite has failed after
    three weeks with no news.
[11:58] Anne
    I don't care how high I pass now,
    just so long as I do.
[12:01] Anne
    What if the others pass and I fail?
[12:05] Matthew
    You'll beat the whole island.
[12:10] Marilla
    Really, Matthew, that's
    too much to hope for.
[12:13] Matthew
    I know you will.
[12:32] Anne
    Diana!
[12:33] Diana
    Father brought the paper home from
    Bright River not ten minutes ago!
[12:37] Diana
    It won't be here till tomorrow by mail!
[12:39] Diana
    Anne, you've passed!
[12:42] Diana
    Passed the very first!
    You and Gilbert both—you're ties!
[12:46] Diana
    But your name is first.
[12:49] Diana
    Oh, I'm so proud!
[12:52] Diana
    You've all passed, every one of you.
[12:54] Anne
    Oh, good...
[12:56] Diana
    You must tell Miss and Mr. Cuthbert.
[12:59] Women
    Well done, Anne!
[13:02] Women
    What an achievement!
[13:04] Lynde
    You're a credit to your friends, Anne,
    that's what, and we're all proud of you.
[13:11] Anne
    Thank you, Mrs. Lynde.
[13:13] Marilla
    You've done pretty
    well, I must say, Anne.
[13:16] Anne
    Yes, but I never dreamed I'd come fir—
[13:20] Anne
    Oh, Matthew!
[13:24] Anne
    I've passed, and I'm first!
[13:27] Matthew
    Well now, I always said it!
[13:31] Anne
    Yes, and you were right!
[13:42] Marilla
    A concert?
[13:44] Anne
    An invitation from the White Sands Hotel!
[13:47] Anne
    They want me to recite!
[13:50] Anne
    Oh, I never dreamed I would
    get to perform at a concert!
[13:53] Matthew
    They're bound to encore you.
[13:57] Marilla
    I don't call it proper, a lot of
    young folks gadding over to the hotel
[14:02] Marilla
    without any responsible person with them.
[14:04] Anne
    But I can go, can't I, Marilla?!
[14:09] Marilla
    Oh, very well.
[14:11] Diana
    Hold still, Anne!
[14:13] Diana
    Don't pull out a single
    curl over your forehead.
[14:16] Diana
    I'm going to braid your hair in two
    thick braids and tie them halfway up.
[14:20] Anne
    Shall I put my pearl beads on?
[14:23] Anne
    Matthew brought me a string from town.
[14:26] Diana
    Yes, but put on your
    organdy, by all means!
[14:30] Anne
    If you say so.
[14:32] Anne
    Oh, Diana, I love this
    little room so dearly.
[14:35] Anne
    I don't know how I'll get along without
    it when I go to town next month.
[14:39] Diana
    Don't speak of your going away tonight.
    I don't want to think of it,
[14:43] Diana
    it makes me so miserable, and I do want
    to have a good time this evening.
[14:48] Anne
    And what happened then?
[14:50] Diana
    Do you really want to know?
[14:51] Jane
    Well, if you can credit it...
[15:09] Anne
    Oh, dear. I don't know if I belong.
[15:21] White Lace Girl
    I smell country bumpkins.
[15:24] White Lace Girl
    Some rustic belle is going to recite
    a poem. It should be such fun.
[15:30] Emcee
    Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
    to the White Sands Hotel concert.
[15:37] Anne
    Wh-Whatever shall I do? I don't feel ready.
[15:41] Anne
    I wish I were in the audience with them.
[15:43] Anne
    Oh, if I were only back at Green Gables!
[16:00] White Lace Girl
    Oh, look! There's Mrs. Evans!
[16:01] White Lace Girl
    The professional elocutionist, you know.
[16:10] Evans
    The flower that smiles to-day
    To-morrow dies;
[16:14] Evans
    All that we wish to stay
    Tempts and then flies.
[16:19] Evans
    What is this world's delight?
[16:21] Evans
    Lightning that mocks the night,
[16:23] Evans
    Brief even as bright.
[16:24] Evans
    Virtue, how frail it is!
    Friendship how rare!
[16:24] Anne
    I can never get up and recite after her!
[16:25] Evans
    Love, how it sells poor bliss
    For proud despair!
[16:27] Evans
    But we, though soon they fall,
[16:28] Anne
    I want to go home to Green

    Gables this instant!
[16:29] Evans
    Survive their joy, and all
    Which ours we call.
[16:30] Evans
    Whilst skies are blue and bright,
    Whilst flowers are gay,
[16:32] Evans
    Whilst eyes that change ere night
    Make glad the day;
[16:35] Evans
    Whilst yet the calm hours creep,
    Dream thou—and from thy sleep
[16:40] Evans
    Then wake to weep.
[16:49] Emcee
    Next, Anne Shirley will
    recite "The Maiden's Vow."
[16:59] Anne
    What can I do after that
    magnificent recitation?
[17:07] Anne
    Perhaps I should flee, even if it
    means an eternity of humiliation.
[17:12] Anne
    Josie Pye! Gilbert!
[17:15] Anne
    No! I will not run away!
[17:18] Anne
    Just you watch!
[17:21] Anne
    I've made a vow, I'll keep it true,
[17:25] Anne
    I'll never married be;
[17:28] Anne
    For the only ane that I think on
    Will never think o' me.
[17:32] Anne
    Now gane to a far distant shore,
[17:35] Anne
    Their face nae mair I'll see;
[17:38] Anne
    But often will I think o' them,
[17:41] Anne
    That winna think o' me.
[17:44] Anne
    Gae owre, gae owre noo, gude Sir John,
    Oh, dinna follow me;
[17:51] Anne
    For the only ane I ere thocht on,
    Lies buried in the sea.
[18:12] Painter
    If you don't mind my asking...
[18:22] Pink Lady
    My dear, you did splendidly!
[18:25] Pink Lace
    There, they're encoring you—
    they're bound to have you back!
[18:27] Anne
    Oh, I can't go.
[18:29] Pink Lady
    What? Turn down this honor?
[18:32] Anne
    But yet...
[18:35] (Flashback) Matthew
    They're bound to encore you.
[18:40] Anne
    I must, or Matthew will be disappointed.
[18:43] Pink Lady
    Then don't disappoint Matthew.
[18:48] Anne
    I won't!
[18:53] Anne
    Be kind and tender to the Frog,
[18:56] Anne
    And do not call him names.
[19:00] Anne
    'Ribbity-eek'! 'Ahh-keep away'!
[19:04] Anne
    'Slimy-bumpy skin'! 'Croakity-blargh'!
[19:09] Anne
    The Frog is justly sensitive
    To epithets like these.
[19:12] Anne
    No animal will more repay
    A treatment kind and fair...
[19:20] Pink Lady
    You really were wonderful.
[19:24] Pink Lady
    I've been crying like a
    baby, actually I have.
[19:27] Anne
    Thank you very much.
[19:29] Pink Lady
    Please, accept this for the
    gift of such lovely poems.
[19:34] Anne
    O-Oh, I couldn't possibly!
[19:37] Evans
    Anne Shirley?
[19:39] Anne
    Mrs. Evans.
[19:41] Evans
    I could hear how deeply you
    appreciate those poems,
[19:44] Evans
    and you have a charming voice.
[19:47] Anne
    Th-Thank you very much!
[19:56] Jane
    Hasn't it been a perfectly splendid time?
[19:59] Jane
    Anne, your recitation was simply great.
[20:02] Jane
    I think it was better than Mrs. Evans's.
[20:05] Anne
    Oh, no, don't say things like that, Jane.
[20:09] Anne
    It couldn't be better than Mrs. Evans's,
    you know, for she is a professional,
[20:12] Anne
    and I'm only a schoolgirl,
    with a little knack of reciting.
[20:15] Anne
    I'm quite satisfied if the people
    just liked mine pretty well.
[20:22] Diana
    I've a compliment for you, Anne.
[20:25] Diana
    There was an American sitting behind Jane
    and me. Well, we heard him say...
[20:29] (Flashback) Painter
    Who is that girl on the platform
    with the splendid Titian hair?
[20:34] Diana
    Josie Pye says he is a
    distinguished artist.
[20:38] Jane
    But what does Titian hair mean?
[20:40] Jane
    We should have asked.
[20:42] Anne
    Being interpreted it means
    plain red, I guess.
[20:45] Diana
    He did an awful lot of
    sketches over supper,
[20:50] Diana
    so I got one for you.
[20:55] Anne
    I'm not nearly so pretty.
[20:58] Diana
    Oh, but you are.
[21:00] Diana
    It looks just like you.
[21:05] Jane
    Did you see all the diamonds
    those ladies wore?
[21:09] Jane
    Wouldn't you just love to be rich, girls?
[21:15] Anne
    We are rich.
[21:17] Jane
    Are we? How?
[21:19] Anne
    Why, we have fifteen years to our
    credit, and we're happy as queens,
[21:24] Anne
    and we've all got
    imaginations, more or less.
[21:27] Anne
    Look at that sea, girls.
[21:29] Anne
    all silver and shadow and
    vision of things not seen.
[21:36] Anne
    I don't want to be anyone but myself,
[21:39] Anne
    even if I go uncomforted
    by diamonds all my life.
[21:43] Anne
    I'm content to be Anne of Green Gables,
    with my string of pearl beads.
[21:49] Anne
    And quite content to be
    red-haired Anne Shirley,
[21:53] Anne
    with a bosom friend who has a charming
    smile and dresses me to perfection.

    Passing the Queen's Entrance
[00:05] Anne
    meant that I would be leaving
    Avonlea come fall.
[00:10] Diana
    You must write me every day.
[00:13] Anne
    We aren't parting forever, you know?
[00:15] Anne
    But I will write often.
[00:17] Marilla
    You take care, now.
[00:20] Anne
    I will. And I'll come home on weekends.
[00:27] Diana
    Anne!
[01:28] Matthew
    There never was a luckier mistake
    than what Mrs. Spencer made.
[01:35] Marilla
    I suppose not.
[01:37] Matthew
    It was Providence,
[01:41] Matthew
    because the Almighty saw
    we needed her, I reckon.

[03:37] Jane
    I can't help admiring you, Anne.
[03:39] Jane
    I mean, a First-Class teacher's
    license in one year?
[03:43] Ruby
    We'll be doing Second-Class
    work in the same time.
[03:47] Ruby
    It normally takes two years for a
    First-Class license, doesn't it?
[03:50] Anne
    Miss Stacy advised me to
    take up Second-Year work.
[03:54] Anne
    I'll work hard and hope
    I'm equal to the challenge.
[03:57] Jane
    Won't Gilbert be in your class, then?
[04:01] Jane
    Why don't you forget the past
    and be friends with him?
[04:10] Jane
    I think you're being impossible.
[04:12] Jane
    You don't know anyone else in
    your class but Gilbert, do you?
[04:16] Ruby
    Oh, Gilbert!
[04:21] Ruby
    Good morning.
[04:22] Ruby
    We're at a school, but I hope
    we'll all stay friends.
[04:25] Gilbert
    Sure.
[04:26] Ruby
    Why, Gilbert, that shirt
    looks fetching on you.
[04:30] Gilbert
    Oh, thank you.
[04:38] Anne
    Dearest Diana,
[04:40] Anne
    It is so lonesome now I cannot bear it,
    surrounded by unfamiliar faces.
[04:46] Anne
    I wouldn't feel so much like
    a cat in a strange garret
[04:51] Anne
    if only Jane and Ruby had gone
    in for First-Class, too.
[04:54] Anne
    I wonder which of the girls here
    are going to be my friends.
[04:59] Anne
    I like the look of that girl with the
    brown eyes and the crimson waist.
[05:03] Anne
    She looks vivid and red-rosy;
[05:05] Anne
    and there's that pale, fair
    one gazing out of the window.
[05:08] Anne
    She has lovely hair, and looks as if
    she knew a thing or two about dreams.
[05:14] Anne
    But just now I don't know them
    and they don't know me,
[05:19] Anne
    and probably don't want
    to know me particularly.
[05:27] Anne
    Gilbert looks awfully determined.
[05:31] Anne
    I suppose he's made up his
    mind to win the medal.
[05:34] Anne
    I feel thankful for any familiar
    face now, even Gilbert's.
[05:48] Anne
    How homesick I feel, writing to
    you alone in my boarding house.
[05:53] Anne
    But I won't cry. It's silly.
[06:01] Anne
    I tell a lie.
[06:04] Anne
    There's the third tear splashing down.
[06:08] Anne
    I must think of something
    funny to stop them.
[06:11] Anne
    But there's nothing funny except
    what is connected with Avonlea.
[06:15] Anne
    Oh, Matthew is nearly home by now.
[06:19] Anne
    And Marilla is at the gate,
    looking down the lane for him.
[06:22] Anne
    Six, seven... Oh, there's
    no use in counting them!
[06:26] Anne
    They're coming in a flood presently.
[06:29] Anne
    I can't cheer up—I don't want to
    cheer up. It's nicer to be miserable!
[06:36] Josie
    You've been crying.
[06:39] Anne
    What if I have?
[06:40] Josie
    Are you honestly homesick already?
[06:42] Anne
    What is it to you?
[06:45] Anne
    But I'm so glad you came up.
[06:47] Anne
    It's a relief to see any familiar face.
[06:52] Josie
    Town's too jolly after
    that poky old Avonlea.
[06:57] Josie
    Have you anything eatable around, Anne?
[06:59] Josie
    I'm literally starving.
[07:02] Josie
    I guessed Marilla'd
    load you up with treats.
[07:08] Josie
    What? These are tiny.
[07:12] Josie
    And they taste like the country.
[07:22] Josie
    Oh, that reminds me, Queen's is to get
    one of the Avery scholarships after all.
[07:27] Anne
    Is it really?!
[07:29] Josie
    Yes. It will be announced
    in the Academy tomorrow.
[07:35] Josie
    What's got into you?
[07:40] Anne
    Then if I make the highest
    mark in English Literature,
[07:43] Anne
    I'll win a scholarship at Redmond College?
[07:48] Josie
    Two hundred and fifty dollars
    a year for four years.
[07:52] Anne
    Wouldn't Matthew be proud if I won
    the Avery and got to be a B.A.?
[08:00] Josie
    I know English is your subject,
[08:03] Josie
    but you can't be serious.
[08:05] Anne
    I'll win that scholarship
    if hard work can do it.
[08:13] Anne
    Oh, it's delightful to have ambitions!
[08:17] Anne
    Just as soon as you attain to one,
[08:20] Anne
    you see another one
    glittering higher up still!
[08:32] Anne
    Dearest Diana,
[08:34] Anne
    The girls in my class are so thoughtful,
    imaginative, and especially ambitious.
[08:40] Anne
    The "rose-red" girl, Stella, is considered
    the handsomest girl in our year.
[08:47] Anne
    The "dream girl," Priscilla, is full to
    the brim of mischief and pranks and fun.
[08:53] Stella
    The medal contestants have narrowed down
    to three—Anne, Gilbert, and Lewis.
[08:59] Priscilla
    You're after the Avery, too, aren't you?
[09:02] Priscilla
    You have more rivals for that.
[09:05] Anne
    I'll just have to keep working.
[09:09] Priscilla
    Why must getting a teacher's
    license be such a chore?
[09:13] Anne
    Just think of going home for Christmas.
    That's something to look forward to.
[09:17] Stella; Priscilla
    Oh, yes.
[09:21] Diana
    Anne!
[09:22] Anne
    Diana!
[09:26] Diana
    Merry Christmas, Anne!
[09:28] Anne
    Merry Christmas, Diana!
[09:31] Jane
    They're at it again.
[09:33] Ruby
    They see each other every weekend.
[09:36] Anne
    What a joy it is to see your face.
[09:40] Diana
    I thought you'd come to prefer
    Stella and Priscilla.
[09:46] Anne
    They are both wonderful people.
[09:49] Anne
    But no Queen's girl shall ever
    be as dear to me as you, Diana.
[09:55] Anne
    If anything, I love you more than before.
[10:29] Anne
    Thank you.
[10:30] Anne
    I think the train will be here soon.
    You needn't wait in the cold with me.
[10:36] Anne
    Go on.
[10:39] Anne
    I'm ever so glad I got to
    spend Christmas with you.
[10:42] Anne
    I won't see you again
    till spring, I suppose.
[10:45] Matthew
    Mind your health, now.
[10:48] Anne
    And you keep warm, Matthew.
[11:22] Gilbert
    It's hard to believe the
    Christmas holidays are already over.
[11:26] Gilbert
    We won't have time to come home
    again until after the exams.
[11:32] Anne
    I suppose not.
[11:33] Gilbert
    We'd better settle down to hard work.
[11:36] Anne
    Yes.
[11:39] Gilbert
    I won't let you beat me.
[11:42] Anne
    Neither will I.
[12:01] Jane
    It doesn't seem possible that
    the term is nearly over.
[12:06] Jane
    It would be dreadful if I failed to get
    my license after spending so much money.
[12:11] Josie
    If I don't pass this year,
    I'm coming back next.
[12:15] Jane
    Is that so?
[12:16] Josie
    By the way, Anne, Professor Tremaine said
    Gilbert Blythe was sure to get the medal
[12:21] Josie
    and that Emily Clay would likely
    win the Avery scholarship.
[12:24] Jane
    Really, Josie!
[12:27] Anne
    That may make me feel
    badly tomorrow, Josie,
[12:32] Anne
    but just now, as long as I know the violets
    are coming out below Green Gables
[12:38] Anne
    and that little ferns are poking
    their heads up in Lovers' Lane,
[12:42] Anne
    it's not a great deal of difference
    whether I win the Avery or not.
[12:46] Anne
    I've done my best.
[12:49] Ruby
    You've certainly done that.
[12:52] Anne
    Girls, don't talk about exams!
[12:55] Jane
    Hear, hear.
[12:56] Anne
    Picture your future selves instead.
[13:12] Anne
    Dearest, dearest Diana,
[13:14] Anne
    I have wonderful news.
[13:17] Anne
    The other Avonlea girls all passed.
[13:20] Anne
    Ruby is already obsessing over what
    she'll wear to commencement.
[13:26] Anne
    Gilbert and I took the First-Class exam,
    and our results will be out next week.
[13:30] Anne
    I am resolved to accept them,
    whatever they may be.
[13:35] Anne
    I begin to understand what is meant
    by the "joy of the strife."
[13:40] Anne
    Next to trying and winning,
    the best thing is trying and failing.
[13:57] Jane
    The First-Class results are finally out.
[14:00] Jane
    Don't worry, Anne. Between the medal and
    the Avery, you'll win one of them anyhow.
[14:06] Anne
    I wonder.
[14:07] Anne
    Everybody says Emily will win the Avery.
[14:11] Jane
    Never mind those rumors.
[14:14] Anne
    Promise me, Jane. If I have failed,
     don't sympathize with me.
[14:20] Anne
    I implore you in the name
    of our old friendship.
[14:22] Jane
    Oh, all right.
[14:24] Students
    Hurrah, hurrah!
[14:27] Students
    Hurrah for Gilbert!
[14:29] Students
    Hurrah for Gilbert Blythe, medalist!
[14:33] Gilbert
    Thank you all.
[14:33] Students
    Hurrah, hurrah!
[14:36] Jane
    Stay there, Anne. I'll go look.
[14:37] Students
    Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!
[14:42] Anne
    Oh, Matthew will be heartbroken.
[14:46] Anne
    He felt so sure I would win.
[14:50] Jane
    Three cheers for Anne Shirley,
[14:53] Jane
    winner of the Avery!
[14:54] Jane
    Hurrah for Anne Shirley!

[15:07] Anne
    Oh, it's like a dream come true.
[15:10] Anne
    Won't Matthew and Marilla be pleased!
[15:26] Headmaster
    We have high hopes for your college career.
[15:30] Man A
    That girl won the Avery.
[15:33] Man A
    And I hear she wrote this year's best essay.
[15:36] Woman B
    My. Isn't that something?
[15:44] Matthew
    Reckon you're glad we kept her, Marilla?
[16:06] Marilla
    It's not the first time I've been glad.
[16:29] Anne
    It's so good to be back again.
[16:32] Anne
    It's so good to see those pointed firs
    coming out against the pink sky.
[16:37] Anne
    Isn't the breath of the mint delicious?
[16:41] Diana
    You've done splendidly, Anne.
[16:43] Diana
    I suppose you won't be teaching
    now that you've won the Avery?
[16:49] Anne
    No. I'm going to Redmond in September.
[16:53] Anne
    After three glorious,
    golden months of vacation.
[16:57] Diana
    And you say Jane and Ruby are going to teach?
[17:02] Anne
    The Newbridge trustees have offered
    Jane their school already.
[17:06] Diana
    Gilbert Blythe is going to teach, too.
[17:09] Diana
    He has to.
[17:12] Diana
    His father can't afford to send
    him to college next year, after all,
[17:15] Diana
    so he means to earn his own way through.
[17:18] Diana
    I expect he'll get the school here.
[17:23] Anne
    Oh.
[17:25] Anne
    I had expected Gilbert would be
    going to Redmond with me.
[17:34] Marilla
    Matthew?
[17:36] Anne
    Matthew?!
[17:46] Anne
    Marilla, is Matthew quite well?
[17:50] Marilla
    No, he isn't, but he won't
    spare himself a mite.
[17:55] Marilla
    I've been real worried about him,
[17:57] Marilla
    but he's some better this while back
[18:01] Marilla
    and we've got Jerry to help him.
[18:04] Marilla
    Maybe he'll pick up now you're home.
    You always cheer him up.
[18:10] Anne
    You are not looking as well yourself
    as I'd like to see you, Marilla.
[18:16] Marilla
    I'm all right.
[18:22] Marilla
    It's my head. I've a pain so
    often now—behind my eyes.
[18:28] Anne
    That sounds awful.
[18:30] Marilla
    There is a distinguished oculist coming to
    the Island. I guess I'll have to see him.
[18:36] Anne
    Yes, you must!
[18:39] Marilla
    Well, Anne, you've done real
    well at Queen's, I must say.
[18:44] Marilla
    To take First-Class license in one year
     and win the Avery scholarship.
[18:49] Anne
    I couldn't have done it
    without you and Matthew.
[18:53] Marilla
    Mrs. Lynde says she doesn't believe
    in the higher education of women at all.
[19:01] Marilla
    I don't believe a word of it.
[19:06] Marilla
    Speaking of Rachel reminds me—
    she said the Abbey Bank was shaky.
[19:14] Marilla
    Did you hear anything, Anne?
[19:16] Anne
    No, why?
[19:18] Marilla
    All we have saved is in
    that bank—every penny.
[19:21] Anne
    Is it really?
[19:23] Marilla
    Matthew said any bank with Mr. Abbey at the
    head of it was good enough for anybody.
[19:30] Marilla
    But listen to me, going on like this.
[19:33] Marilla
    Aren't you taking a day with
    Diana to stretch your wings?
[19:38] Marilla
    Go off and play.
[19:40] Anne
    Yes. Thank you.
[20:04] Anne
    Matthew, I'll take one of those.
[20:06] Matthew
    They're heavy.
[20:13] Anne
    How do you feel?
[20:15] Matthew
    Oh, well enough.
[20:19] Anne
    You've been working too hard.
[20:23] Anne
    You have Jerry. Why won't
    you take things easier?
[20:27] Matthew
    Well now, I can't seem to.
[20:32] Matthew
    It's only that I'm getting old,
    Anne, and keep forgetting it.
[20:37] Matthew
    Well, well, I've always worked pretty
    hard and I'd rather drop in harness.
[20:47] Anne
    If I had been the boy you sent for,
[20:50] Anne
    I'd be able to help you so much
    now and spare you in a hundred ways.
[20:56] Matthew
    Well now, I'd rather have
    you than a dozen boys, Anne.
[21:08] Matthew
    I guess it wasn't a boy that took
    the Avery scholarship, was it?
[21:17] Matthew
    It was a girl.
[21:20] Matthew
    My girl that I'm proud of.
[21:43] Anne
    It was the last night before
    sorrow touched my life.
[21:49] (Flashback) Matthew
    My girl that I'm proud of.
[21:53] Anne
    And no life is ever quite the same again
[21:58] Anne
    when once that cold, sanctifying
    touch has been laid upon it.

[00:01] Anne
    I concluded my student days at Queen's
[00:05] Anne
    by winning a scholarship for my
    marks in English literature.
[00:10] Anne
    Matthew and Marilla were delighted,
[00:13] Anne
    and I came home to Green Gables
    to prepare for college.
[00:18] Anne
    That is, until one summer morning...
[00:24] Marilla
    It's a great help to have you, Anne.
    We aren't getting any younger.
[00:30] Anne
    Good morning, Matthew.
[00:32] Matthew
    Morning, Anne.
[00:36] Anne
    Here.
[00:38] Anne
    What do you think?
[00:39] Matthew
    Oh well, it tastes fine.
    More than fine.
[00:45] Anne
    I never knew cooking could be so much fun.
[00:48] Marilla
    Didn't you?
[00:49] Anne
    No.
[00:50] Anne
    The boarding house kitchen
    was so inconvenient.
[00:53] Marilla
    Then I suppose you won't mind doing all
    our cooking over summer vacation.
[00:58] Anne
    Indeed I won't.
[01:00] Anne
    I promise you I'll outdo myself.
[01:05] Anne
    Matthew? What is the matter?
[01:08] Anne
    Are you sick?
[01:18] Anne
    Matthew!
[01:20] Marilla
    Matthew! Matthew!
[01:21] Anne
    Matthew!
[01:22] Anne
    Matthew!
[01:22] Marilla
    Anne, tell Jerry to go for the doctor.
[01:25] Marilla
    Then run for the Barrys',
    and for Rachel, too.
[01:28] Anne
    All right.
[01:28] Marilla
    Matthew!
[01:31] Anne
    No.
[01:33] Anne
    No!

    No!

    Anne dear, would you like to have
    me sleep with you tonight?
[04:50] Anne
    Thank you, Diana.
[04:53] Anne
    I think you won't misunderstand me
    when I say that I want to be alone.
[04:57] Anne
    I cannot believe that Matthew is dead.
[04:59] Anne
    Half the time it still
    doesn't seem possible.
[05:02] Anne
    I want to be quite silent and
    quiet and try to realize it.
[05:08] Diana
    I'll be downstairs.
    You must call when you need me.
[05:13] Anne
    I will.
[05:39] (Flashback) Matthew
    It was a girl.

    My girl that I'm proud of.
[06:08] Marilla
    There—there—
    don't cry so, dearie.
[06:10] Marilla
    It can't bring him back.
[06:16] Marilla
    It isn't right to cry so.
[06:20] Anne
    Oh, just let me cry, Marilla!
[06:22] Anne
    The tears don't hurt
    me like that ache did!
[06:26] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, how can Matthew be gone?
[06:31] Anne
    What will we do without him?
[06:36] Marilla
    We've got each other, Anne.
[06:43] Marilla
    I don't know what I'd do if you
    weren't here—if you'd never come.
[06:50] Marilla
    I know I've been kind of strict
    and harsh with you maybe,
[06:53] Marilla
    but you mustn't think I didn't love you
    as well as Matthew did, for all that.
[06:59] Marilla
    I want to tell you now when saying
    things out of my heart comes easier.
[07:05] Marilla
    I love you as dear as if you
    were my own flesh and blood
[07:10] Marilla
    and you've been my joy and comfort
    ever since you came to Green Gables.
[07:41] Anne
    I miss him so much.
[07:44] Anne
    All the time, Mrs. Allan.
[07:47] Anne
    And yet my heart dances just as it used
    to on finding little buds in the garden.
[07:55] Anne
    Today Diana said something funny
    and I found myself laughing.
[08:01] Anne
    And it somehow seems as if I oughtn't to.
[08:05] Allan
    Matthew liked to hear you laugh, didn't he?
[08:10] Anne
    Yes.
[08:11] Allan
    And didn't he like to know that you found
    pleasure in the little things around you?
[08:17] Anne
    He did.
[08:19] Allan
    If buds heal your heart, you should not
    close your heart to their influence.
[08:26] Allan
    We should enjoy this life as
    Matthew would have wanted to.
[08:30] Anne
    Yes.
[08:32] Anne
    I was down to the graveyard to plant a
    rosebush on Matthew's grave this afternoon.
[08:37] Anne
    Matthew always liked little white
    Scotch roses the best.
[08:42] Anne
    I hope he has roses like them in heaven.
[08:47] Allan
    I'm sure he does.
[08:51] Anne
    Perhaps the souls of his little white
    roses were all there to meet him.
[08:56] Allan
    Let us believe that they were.
[09:03] Anne
    I'm back, Marilla.
[09:06] Marilla
    It's good to see you, Anne.
[09:13] Marilla
    Is that honeysuckle?
[09:15] Anne
    Yes.
[09:17] Anne
    I like the delicious hint of fragrance.
[09:23] Marilla
    It does smell nice. Real sweet.
[09:26] Marilla
    Doctor Spencer was here
    while you were away.
[09:29] Marilla
    He says that the specialist
    will be in town tomorrow.
[09:33] Anne
    Oh, good. You must go in and
    have your eyes examined.
[09:37] Marilla
    You won't mind staying here alone
    while I'm away, will you?
[09:42] Anne
    I shall be all right. Diana will
    come over for company for me.
[09:46] Anne
    And you needn't fear that
    I'll mistake wine for cordial.
[09:52] Marilla
    What a girl you were for making
    mistakes in them days, Anne.
[09:58] Marilla
    Do you mind the time you dyed your hair?
[10:03] Anne
    Yes, indeed.
[10:05] Anne
    I laugh a little when I think what
    a worry my hair used to be to me.
[10:09] Anne
    But not much, because it was
    a very real trouble then.
[10:14] Anne
    I've given up fretting over
    my hair and freckles now.
[10:20] Marilla
    And a good thing, too.
[10:38] Anne
    Welcome home, Marilla.
[10:41] Anne
    Diana only just left.
[10:45] Marilla
    Oh, did she?
[10:47] Anne
    Are you very tired, Marilla?
[10:49] Anne
    Do you want to lie down?
[10:51] Marilla
    Yes—no—I don't know.
[10:55] Anne
    Did you see the oculist?
[10:58] Anne
    What did he say?
[11:01] Marilla
    He says to give up reading and sewing and
    any kind of work that strains the eyes.
[11:10] Marilla
    And I'm to be careful not to cry.
[11:13] Marilla
    If I wear the glasses he's given me,
    he thinks my eyes may not get any worse.
[11:19] Marilla
    But if I don't he says, I'll certainly
    be stone-blind in six months.
[11:25] Marilla
    Blind! Anne, just think of it!
[11:28] Anne
    Don't think of it.
[11:29] Anne
    You know he has given you hope.
[11:33] Anne
    If you are careful...
[11:35] Marilla
    I don't call it much hope.
[11:38] Marilla
    How can it be wrong to cry
    when we have just lost Matthew?
[11:43] Marilla
    What am I to do when I get lonesome?
[12:23] Anne
    What did Mr. Sadler want?
[12:27] Marilla
    He heard that I was going
    to sell Green Gables
[12:31] Marilla
    and he wants to buy it.
[12:34] Anne
    Sell it! Sell Green Gables?!
[12:38] Marilla
    I've thought it all over.
[12:41] Marilla
    If my eyes were strong,
     I could stay here and manage.
[12:47] Marilla
    But as it is, I can't.
[12:50] Marilla
    It won't bring much, but it'll
    be enough for me to live on, I reckon.
[12:57] Marilla
    I'm thankful you're provided
    for with that scholarship, Anne.
[13:03] Marilla
    I'm sorry you won't have a home to
    come to in your vacations, that's all.
[13:11] Anne
    You mustn't sell Green Gables, Marilla.
[13:14] Marilla
    I wish I didn't have to.
[13:18] Anne
    You won't have to stay here alone.
[13:23] Anne
    I'm not going to Redmond.
[13:28] Marilla
    Not going to Redmond!
[13:30] Anne
    I'm not going to take the scholarship.
[13:34] Anne
    You surely don't think I could leave
    you alone in your trouble, Marilla!
[13:38] Anne
    I've been thinking and planning.
[13:42] Anne
    Mr. Barry wants to rent
    the farm for next year.
[13:46] Anne
    And I'm going to teach.
[13:52] Marilla
    Why, what do you mean, Anne?
[13:55] Anne
    Just what I say.
[13:56] Anne
    I understand the Avonlea school is
    already promised to Gilbert Blythe,
[14:01] Anne
    but I can have the Carmody school.
[14:04] Anne
    That won't be as convenient,
    but I can drive myself over and back.
[14:08] Anne
    And even in winter, I can come home Fridays.
[14:12] Anne
    I'll make you good tea.
[14:15] Anne
    And I'll read to you.
[14:17] Anne
    You shan't be dull or lonesome.
[14:19] Anne
    We'll be real happy here
    together, you and I.
[14:23] Marilla
    I can't let you sacrifice
    yourself so for me.
[14:26] Anne
    There is no sacrifice.
[14:29] Anne
    Nothing could be worse than
    giving up Green Gables.
[14:36] Anne
    I am going to stay here and teach.
[14:39] Anne
    That's my ambition.
[14:41] Anne
    Besides, I mean to study at home here.
[14:44] Anne
    I'm going to be a good teacher—
    and I'm going to save your eyesight.
[14:49] Marilla
    But what about...
[14:51] Anne
    You can't prevent me.
[14:53] Anne
    I'm sixteen and a half,
    and every bit as obstinate as you!
[15:01] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, don't you go pitying me.
[15:07] Anne
    I'm heart glad over the very thought
    of staying at dear Green Gables.
[15:13] Marilla
    You blessed girl! I feel as if
    you'd given me new life.
[15:20] Marilla
    I guess I ought to stick out and
    make you go to college,
[15:27] Marilla
    but I know I can't,
    so I ain't going to try.
[15:34] Marilla
    I'll make it up to you though, Anne.
[15:39] Anne
    No, Marilla,
[15:41] Anne
    you really needn't.
[15:45] Anne
    Matthew,
[15:46] Anne
    I think I've come to a bend in the road.
[15:51] Anne
    I don't know what lies around the bend,
    but I'm going to believe that the best does.
[15:57] Anne
    So keep your eye on me, Matthew.
[16:03] Josie
    Have you heard?
[16:04] Josie
    Anne Shirley's given up the
    idea of going to college.
[16:08] Jimmy
    What, really?
[16:09] Josie
    After all that studying and
    winning a scholarship,
[16:14] Josie
    she's going off to teach in Carmody.
[16:17] Martin
    Carmody? That's far.
[16:23] Lynde
    Hello!
[16:26] Anne
    Hello.
[16:27] Lynde
    Taking the air, are you?
[16:29] Marilla
    Yes.
[16:30] Lynde
    Well, Anne, I hear you've given up
    your notion of going to college.
[16:35] Anne
    Yes.
[16:36] Lynde
    That's a fine thing you've done.
    I was real glad to hear it.
[16:41] Anne
    Thank you, Mrs. Lynde.
[16:43] Lynde
    And you're going to teach?
[16:46] Anne
    Yes, in Carmody. It should be great fun.
[16:52] Lynde
    Funny. I heard the trustees decided to give
    you the school right here in Avonlea.
[16:58] Anne
    That can't be. I thought they had
    promised it to Gilbert Blythe.
[17:03] Lynde
    Gilbert Blythe withdrew his application.
[17:09] Lynde
    And he suggested that they accept yours.
    He's going to teach at White Sands.
[17:16] Lynde
    Of course he gave up the
    school just to oblige you,
[17:21] Lynde
    because he knew how much you
    wanted to stay with Marilla.
[17:28] Lynde
    I must say it was real kind in him,
[17:31] Lynde
    for he'll have his board
    to pay at White Sands,
[17:35] Lynde
    and he's got to earn his
    own way through college.
[17:37] Anne
    I... I don't think I ought to let Gilbert
    make such a sacrifice for—for me.
[17:43] Lynde
    I guess you can't prevent him now.
[17:46] Lynde
    He's signed papers with
    the White Sands trustees.
[17:50] Lynde
    Of course you'll take the Avonlea school.
[17:53] Lynde
    Gilbert wouldn't want you to refuse.
[17:59] Lynde
    Why, look at her run!
[18:02] Lynde
    There's a good deal of the child
    about her yet in some ways.
[18:06] Marilla
    There's a good deal more of
    the woman about her in others.
[18:10] Lynde
    Marilla Cuthbert, you've gotten mellow.
[18:16] Gilbert's Mother
    If it's Gilbert you want, he's gone out.
[18:18] Anne
    Where has he gone?
[18:19] Gilbert's Mother
    I don't know. He didn't say.
[18:21] Anne
    I see. Sorry to bother you.
[18:29] Anne
    Um...
[18:31] Gilbert's Mother
    Yes?
[18:31] Anne
    I heard about the Avonlea school.
[18:35] Anne
    I don't know how I can thank you.
[18:38] Anne
    I truly appreciate it.
[18:40] Anne
    Good evening.
[18:53] Anne
    Dear old world, you are very lovely,
[18:59] Anne
    and I am glad to be alive in you.
[19:28] Anne
    Gilbert!
[19:31] Anne
    I-I want to thank you for giving
    up the school for me.
[19:36] Anne
    It was very good of you.
[19:38] Anne
    And I want you to know
    that I appreciate it.
[19:41] Gilbert
    It wasn't particularly
    good of me at all, Anne.
[19:45] Gilbert
    I hope I was able to do
    you some small service.
[19:49] Anne
    You have.
[19:52] Anne
    I—
[19:52] Gilbert
    So—
[19:56] Anne
    You first, Gilbert.
[19:59] Gilbert
    All right.
[20:00] Gilbert
    So how about it, Anne? Have you
    really forgiven me for my old fault?
[20:07] Anne
    Of course.
[20:09] Anne
    I forgave you that day you
    rescued me here in your boat.
[20:16] Anne
    What a stubborn little goose I was.
[20:18] Anne
    I've been sorry ever since.
[20:24] Gilbert
    We are going to be the best of friends.
[20:29] Gilbert
    We were born to be good friends, Anne.
[20:35] Gilbert
    You've thwarted destiny long enough.
[20:57] Anne
    I'm home, Marilla.
[20:59] Marilla
    And good thing, too.
[21:01] Marilla
    Who were you talking with?
[21:03] Anne
    Gilbert. I met him by the Lake of
    Shining Waters and thanked him.
[21:08] Marilla
    I didn't think you were such good friends
    that you'd stand for half an hour talking.
[21:13] Anne
    We have decided that it will sensible
    to be good friends in future.
[21:19] Anne
    Were we really there half an hour?!
[21:25] Anne
    The year's at the spring,
[21:27] Anne
    And day's at the morn;
[21:29] Anne
    Morning's at seven;
[21:31] Anne
    The hill-side's dew-pearled;
[21:34] Anne
    The lark's on the wing;
[21:38] Anne
    The snail's on the thorn;
[21:56] Anne
    God's in his Heaven,
[21:59] Anne
    All's right with the world.

[00:08] Anne
    Three months have gone by since
    we said farewell to Matthew.
[00:12] Anne
    Mr. Barry is tending to the fields.
[00:16] Anne
    Thanks to everybody's help,
[00:18] Anne
    Marilla and I are living here in
    Green Gables, the same as ever.
[00:24] Anne
    And tomorrow, I start teaching
    at the Avonlea school!
[00:29] Gilbert
    There you are!
[00:32] Gilbert
    I'm glad to see Marilla looking well.
[00:34] Anne
    Her headaches have relented recently.
[00:37] Gilbert
    She must feel easier in her mind.
[00:39] Anne
    We owe it to you, Gilbert.
[00:43] Jane
    That apple tart tasted heavenly!
[00:46] Diana
    You must teach me the recipe
    sometime, Marilla.
[00:49] Marilla
    Of course. Come visit any time you like.
[00:53] Anne
    I'll take you all as far as the road.
[00:59] Marilla
    When did they all get so tall?
[01:06] Jane
    They've become good friends these
    past three months, haven't they?
[01:10] Diana
    They seem so well-matched.
[01:13] Jane
    I wonder what they're saying.
[01:15] Anne
    How I'd like to improve the old
    Avonlea hall and that empty house.
[01:20] Anne
    I want to make Avonlea the
    best village it can be.
[01:23] Gilbert
    I think it's high time we took action.
[01:26] Diana
    How very romantic.
[01:30] Gilbert
    We'll see each other next Friday.
[01:32] Diana
    Gilbert's in White Sands,
    and Jane is in Newbridge.
[01:37] Diana
    It must be hard teaching in a strange town.
[01:41] Anne
    Oh, but they both have
    an advantage over me.
[01:44] Diana
    How so?
[01:45] Anne
    Imagine my struggles teaching in
    a place that knows my history.
[01:51] Diana
    That does sound worse!
[01:54] Jane
    Well, it is work.
[01:56] Jane
    Surely you ought to suffer
    something for your salary?
[02:01] Anne
    That's our Jane.
[02:03] Anne
    But I don't want to be a cross
    teacher if I can help it.
[02:07] Anne
    I hope to foster my pupils' talents
    and be an influence for good.
[02:11] Jane
    How like our Anne!
[02:13] Diana
    What do you think, Gilbert?
[02:14] Diana
    What sort of teacher do you want to be?
[02:16] Gilbert
    Oh, well...
[02:19] Gilbert
    I want to face my pupils with an
    eye to their futures. Only...
[02:25] Anne
    Only?
[02:26] Jane
    Only what?
[02:28] Gilbert
    Nothing.
[02:29] Diana
    Well, you'll all do fine.
[02:33] Diana
    By the way, what happened in that
    business with Mr. Harrison?
[02:37] Anne
    What?!
[02:37] Anne
    Oh...
[02:39] Diana
    Anne sold her neighbor's cow by
    mistake! Can you believe it?
[02:42] Jane; Gilbert
    What?!
[02:47] Anne
    How many times must I get into the worst
    scrape of my life before I'm through?
[02:52] Anne
    Mr. Harrison had just snapped at me
    the other day, so I lost my head.
[02:58] Anne
    I felt certain that your old cow Dolly
[03:01] Anne
    had broken the fence and gotten
    into Mr. Harrison's oats!
[03:06] Anne
    Mr. Shearer came by that very minute,
    so I sold her to him for twenty dollars.
[03:10] Anne
    Then I went home to Green Gables,
     and there was Dolly!
[03:14] Anne
    I had sold the neighbor's cow!
[03:18] Anne
    It gave Marilla headaches and
    caused an awful bother.
[03:26] Anne
    Oh really, Matthew!
    I know you're laughing at me!

[05:15] Anne
    What now?
[05:16] Anne
    I can't remember a word of the
    speech I stayed up composing!
[05:28] Anne
    My name is Anne Shirley.
[05:29] Anne
    I hope we will all have great
    fun learning together!
[05:38] Anne
    My pupils! Heroes and literary
    giants of the future!
[05:45] (Flashback) Marilla
    Anthony?
[05:47] (Flashback) Lynde
    Mrs. George Pye has taken her
    husband's orphan nephew.
[05:52] (Flashback) Marilla
    And he'll be going to school with Anne?
[05:54] (Flashback) Anne
    That makes him a relation
    of Josie's, I suppose.
[05:58] (Flashback) Lynde
    You may expect trouble, that's what.
[06:02] Anne
    I am being put to the test.
[06:05] Anne
    Isn't the weather lovely, Anthony?
    Perfect for the first day of school.
[06:13] Anne
    You all have such shining morning
    faces, and bright, inquisitive eyes.
[06:22] Paul
    Miss Shirley.
[06:25] Paul
    I'm Paul Irving, ma'am.
[06:27] Anne
    Irving?
[06:29] Anne
    Didn't you came from the
     United States with your father?
[06:33] Anne
    And now you live with your
    grandmother in the village?
[06:36] Paul
    Yes. My dad went back
    to the States to work.
[06:41] Anne
    Did he, now?
[06:42] Paul
    Teacher, about your name...
[06:44] Paul
    You spell "Anne" with
    an e on the end of it!
[06:48] Anne
    Yes, I do! Well spotted!
[06:51] Anne
    Your teacher's name is Anne with an e!
[06:57] Anne
    Now, it is time to begin our lesson!
[07:00] Anne
    Open your readers, please!
[07:03] Anne
    "Here am I, little jumping Joan."
[07:07] Children
    "Here am I, little jumping Joan."
[07:12] Anne
    "When nobody's with me, I'm always alone."
[07:16] Children
    "When nobody's with me—"
[07:40] Anne
    I want all my boys to be gentlemen.
[07:44] Anne
    Do you know what a gentleman is, Anthony?
[07:46] Anne
    Gentlemen don't pour water
    down ladies' necks.
[07:52] Anthony
    I hear they made you stand in
    school all the time, ma'am.
[07:56] Anthony
    And that you hit a boy over
    the head with your slate.
[08:01] Anne
    W-Well, I...
[08:04] Anthony
    May I go now?
[08:06] Anne
    Y-Yes.
[08:16] Anne
    I want to go, too.
[08:23] Paul
    Teacher!
[08:25] Anne
    Paul?
[08:28] Anne
    What's wrong? Did you forget something?
[08:31] Paul
    I found these in Mr. Wright's field.
[08:34] Anne
    My, how pretty.
[08:36] Paul
    For you, ma'am.
[08:38] Anne
    What, me?
[08:42] Paul
    Well, I'll see you tomorrow!
[08:45] Anne
    Paul?
[08:49] Paul
    Goodbye!
[08:51] Anne
    Thank you!
[09:01] Marilla
    Paul's father used to live in Avonlea.
[09:07] Marilla
    According to Rachel...
[09:09] (Flashback) Lynde
    That Paul is Stephen Irving's boy.
[09:13] (Flashback) Lynde
    You remember. Him that jilted
    Lavendar Lewis over at Grafton?
[09:20] (Flashback) Marilla
    I don't think he jilted her.
    There was a quarrel.
[09:23] (Flashback) Marilla
    I suppose there was blame on both sides.
[09:26] (Flashback) Lynde
    Well, anyway, she never married.
[09:30] (Flashback) Lynde
    A common enough story, I guess.
[09:34] Marilla
    Stephen went off to the States,
    married, and had Paul.
[09:41] Anne
    So that's it.
[09:43] Marilla
    Now, how did you get along?
[09:47] Anne
    Ask me that a month later and
    I may be able to tell you.
[09:52] Anne
    My thoughts feel as if they
    had been all stirred up.
[09:55] Marilla
    I see Miss Shirley had a tiring day.
[09:58] Anne
    The only thing I accomplished is that
    I taught unlettered children that A is A.
[10:04] Anne
    Isn't it something to have
    started souls along a path
[10:10] Anne
    that may end in Shakespeare
    and Paradise Lost?
[10:16] Marilla
    I made too much again.
[10:19] Marilla
    Matthew always was fond of stew.
[10:22] Anne
    No matter, Marilla.
    I'm feeling ravenous today.
[10:27] Anne
    I could wolf down the lot!
[10:30] Marilla
    If you can muster an appetite like
    that, I guess I needn't worry.
[10:48] Anne
    Oh, do smell that.
[10:49] Anne
    Bliss is it on such a day to be alive!
[10:51] Diana
    Don't drive so fast, Anne!
[10:54] Anne
    This summer, we young people
    who hope to better Avonlea
[10:59] Anne
    formed the Village Improvement Society.
[11:03] Anne
    Gilbert was elected president,
[11:05] Anne
    Diana was treasurer, and I was secretary.
[11:08] Anne
    We had just convened our second meeting.
[11:12] Gilbert
    I'd like to discuss the costs
    of improving the Avonlea hall.
[11:16] Charlie
    We should start a subscription.
[11:18] Ruby
    Seconded!
[11:19] Josie
    Do you know what people are
    calling this society?
[11:24] Moody
    The Courting Club.
[11:25] Fred; Jane
    What?!
[11:27] Anne
    Marilla told me that "people
    don't like being improved."
[11:32] Anne
    I explained that we are going to improve
    the village, not the people in it.
[11:37] Fred
    Someone asked me if we could induce old
    Josiah Sloane to keep his whiskers trimmed.
[11:44] Diana
    I've been asked if we mean to
    plow up all the roadsides
[11:48] Diana
    and set them out with geraniums.
[11:52] Jane
    Try, "I will not hang lace curtains
    in the cow stall windows."
[11:56] Charlie
    Everybody has us all wrong.
[11:59] Ruby
    Mr. Boulter has been warning
    people against "Improvers."
[12:07] Anne
    We'll have to canvass from house to house,
    to clear our names as much as anything.
[12:13] Gilbert
    I guess we will.
[12:20] Diana
    Why on earth did you offer to
    canvass the Newbridge road, Anne?
[12:24] Diana
    I've been dreading it all morning.
[12:27] Diana
    Almost all the cranks in
    Avonlea live along it.
[12:31] Anne
    I feel myself responsible for the A.V.I.S.,
    since I was the first to suggest it,
[12:35] Anne
    and it seems to me that I ought to
    do the most disagreeable things.
[12:39] Anne
    I'm sorry on your account; but you
    needn't say a word at the cranky places.
[12:45] Anne
    I'll do all the talking.
[12:46] Diana
    I just know they'll treat us
    like swindlers or peddlers.
[12:58] Diana
    If Catherine is alone we may get something.
[13:03] Anne
    And if her sister Eliza is in?
[13:05] Diana
    We won't.
[13:07] Anne; Diana
    Good day!
[13:10] Catherine
    Oh, you must be from the
    Improvement Society.
[13:13] Eliza
    Who is it, Catherine?
[13:14] Catherine
    It's the Improvement Society.
[13:20] Eliza
    If I had money to waste, I'd burn it up and
    have the fun of seeing a blaze maybe.
[13:25] Eliza
    The hall is just a place for
    young folks to meet and carry on.
[13:31] Catherine
    Oh, Eliza, young folks must
    have some amusement.
[13:35] Eliza
    We didn't when we were young.
[13:38] Eliza
    This world is getting worse every day.
[13:41] Catherine
    Well, I always like to
    look on the bright side.
[13:46] Eliza
    There isn't any bright side.
[13:48] Anne
    Oh, indeed there is!
[13:50] Anne
    Why, there are ever so many
    bright sides, Miss Andrews.
[13:53] Diana
    Anne.
[13:54] Anne
    It's really a beautiful world.
[13:57] Eliza
    You won't have such a high opinion of it
    when you've lived as long in it as I have.
[14:02] Eliza
    How is your mother, Diana?
[14:06] Eliza
    She looks terrible run down of late.
[14:09] Diana
    Oh, I don't...
[14:12] Eliza
    And how long is it before Marilla
    expects to be stone blind, Anne?
[14:17] Catherine
    Eliza!
[14:19] Anne
    The doctor thinks her eyes will not get
    any worse if she is very careful.
[14:22] Eliza
    Doctors always talk like that
[14:24] Eliza
    just to keep people cheered up.
[14:27] Eliza
    I wouldn't have much hope if I was her.
[14:31] Anne
    No!
[14:33] Eliza
    I don't have much hope for
    your society, either.
[14:42] Diana
    I want to go home.
[14:45] Catherine
    Wait!
[14:48] Anne
    Catherine?!
[14:53] Catherine
    I'm so sorry. Take this for the hall.
[14:58] Catherine
    I can't give more now, but I'm
    real interested in your society.
[15:03] Anne
    Oh, Catherine!
[15:04] Diana
    Thank you!
[15:06] Catherine
    And don't be cast down
    over what Eliza said.
[15:10] Catherine
    The world is getting better...
    it certainly is.
[15:15] Anne; Diana
    Yes!
[15:19] Diana
    If his wife is home, we won't get a cent.
[15:24] Diana
    Dan Blair doesn't dare have his
    hair cut without asking her permission.
[15:29] Anne
    Everyone says so.
[15:31] Blair
    What's with this blasted thing?!
[15:33] Blair
    You'll have to excuse me, ladies.
[15:36] Blair
    I can't get the durned thing untied.
[15:39] Diana
    P-Pardon the intrusion.
[15:42] Anne
    We've come from the Improvement Society.
[15:44] Blair
    My wife's gone to the train to
    meet her sister from Montreal
[15:49] Blair
    and left orders for me
    to make a cake for tea.
[15:54] Blair
    But I've clean forgot half
    the directions already.
[15:57] Blair
    And it says "season with
    vanilla according to taste,"
[16:00] Blair
    but what if my taste doesn't
    happen to be other people's taste?
[16:15] Blair
    Oh, it's perfect!
[16:19] Anne
    I was afraid I was going
    to laugh myself to death!
[16:22] Diana
    Did you see his apron fluttering
    behind him like a tail?!
[16:26] Anne
    He must not have wanted
    to disappoint his wife.
[16:29] Anne
    He was desperate.
[16:31] Diana
    And he gave four dollars!
[16:33] Anne
    The Whites' place is next.
[16:36] Diana
    I've never met them,
    but I hear she likes things neat.
[16:48] White
    Will you please wipe your feet carefully on
    the grass and then walk on these papers?
[16:55] Anne
    Pardon us.
[17:00] White
    No! Don't come in!
[17:02] White
    Out! Out you... you fly!
[17:06] Anne
    Don't you dare laugh, Diana.
[17:09] Diana
    Don't you look at my face.
[17:15] Diana
    The next place is the last.
[17:17] Anne
    Yes.
[17:18] Anne
    Oh?
[17:19] Diana
    There's Mr. and Mrs. Dickson
    with old Mrs. White.
[17:25] Anne; Diana
    Good day!
[17:26] Grandma White
    Oh, good day to you girls.
[17:28] Dickson
    Have you heard the news?
[17:30] Dickson
    Mrs. White's son has just had the
    baby boy he's been hoping for.
[17:35] Diana
    Goodness!
[17:36] Anne
    Congratulations, Mrs. White!
[17:38] Grandma White
    Lorenzo's known for being mean,
[17:41] Grandma White
    but he's the most generous
    man in Avonlea this minute.
[17:50] Diana
    What?! We're going straight
    to Lorenzo White's?
[17:53] Anne
    Gilbert and Fred won't canvass
    him until next week,
[17:55] Anne
    and he won't be so generous by then!
[17:58] Lorenzo
    Certain, certain!
[18:00] Lorenzo
    Just put me down for a dollar more than
    the highest subscription you've got!
[18:06] Diana
    You mean it?!
[18:08] Anne
    Mr. Daniel Blair put down four dollars.
[18:13] Lorenzo
    Then put me down for five.
[18:16] Lorenzo
    Now, I want you to come into the house.
[18:17] Lorenzo
    There's something in there worth seeing!
[18:26] Diana
    What will we say if the
    baby isn't pretty?
[18:30] Anne
    Oh, there will certainly be something
    else nice to say about it.
[18:36] Diana
    It is pretty!
[18:39] Anne
    Like a little angel!
[18:45] Anne
    We'll slip over to Mr. Harrison's last.
     It's on our way home.
[18:50] Diana
    What?! But Jane and Josie
    took the Carmody road!
[18:54] Anne
    They're too afraid to go near him.
    And he's really such a nice person.
[18:58] Diana
    They're only afraid because they've
    heard you sold his cow by mistake.
[19:03] Anne
    Isn't that all the more reason
    why I should be the one to go?
[19:08] Anne
    I brought him a cake with my apology,
[19:11] Anne
    and he gladly forgave me in
    exchange for our Jersey cow.
[19:16] Anne
    So you see, Mr. Harrison
    and I get on famously!
[19:19] Harrison
    No.
[19:21] Anne
    You mean you won't subscribe?
[19:24] Harrison
    Not a cent.
[19:25] Anne
    But why?
[19:27] Diana
    Someone led me to expect otherwise.
[19:30] Anne
    But I thought you approved of
    our society, Mr. Harrison.
[19:35] Harrison
    So I do, but my approval doesn't
    go as deep as my pocket.
[19:38] Ginger
    Redheaded snippet! Redheaded snippet!
[19:41] Harrison
    S-Stop that, you!
[19:42] Diana
    My!
[19:43] Anne
    Et tu, Ginger?!
[19:52] Anne
    A few more experiences
    such as I have had today
[19:55] Anne
    would make me as much of a
     pessimist as Miss Eliza Andrews.
[20:00] Anne
    It's no laughing matter!
[20:02] Diana
    But have you ever known a day where
    so many things went against you?
[20:09] Anne
    True enough. And we muddled
    through somehow.
[20:14] Diana
    Yes. It was a good day.
[20:16] Anne
    You think so?
[20:18] Diana
    I feel as though my world has
    grown a little broader!
[20:23] Anne
    So do I!
[20:29] Diana
    Here is the total of the subscriptions.
[20:31] Jane
    I don't believe it.
[20:32] Fred
    We can get to work on the hall
    before the year is out.
[20:40] Gilbert
    Teaching isn't easy, is it?
[20:43] Anne
    No. I've wondered if I can face up to
    forty more years of unruly pupils.
[20:51] Gilbert
    I've heard all the children like you.
[20:54] Anne
    I'm glad, but several of
    them might not respect me.
[20:59] Anne
    Although some encourage me, too.
[21:04] Gilbert
    My father has gotten well
    and come to live with us,
[21:09] Gilbert
    but illness and circumstance keep more than
    a few of my pupils from their parents.
[21:14] Anne
    Oh.
[21:16] Gilbert
    I want to be a doctor.
[21:21] Gilbert
    I want to fight disease
    and pain and ignorance.
[21:27] Gilbert
    The folks who lived before me have done so
    much for me that I want to show my gratitude
[21:32] Gilbert
    by doing something for
    the folks who will live after me.
[21:40] Anne
    I see.
[21:43] Anne
    I'd like to add some beauty to life.
[21:49] Anne
    I'd love to make people have a
    pleasanter time because of me!
[21:55] Gilbert
    I think you're fulfilling
    that ambition every day.

[00:01] Anne
    A month has gone by since I started
    teaching at the Avonlea school.
[00:06] Anne
    Just as I was getting used to standing
    in front of my pupils day after day,
[00:11] Anne
    a shocking change came
    along to stir up my life.
[00:18] Lynde
    There's Marilla getting home
    from her relation's funeral.
[00:22] Lynde
    And she's got the twins with her.
[00:25] Thomas
    Poor things.
[00:30] Lynde
    Yes. They lost their father so soon,
    and now their mother, too.
[00:35] Lynde
    Why, there's the boy grabbing at the
    pony's tail and Marilla jerking him back.
[00:42] Thomas
    She'll have her hands full.
[00:43] Lynde
    The girl's sitting up on the
    seat as prim as you please.
[00:48] Lynde
    Anne'll be tickled to death.
    She's awful fond of children.
[00:53] Thomas
    It doesn't seem a day since
    Matthew brought home Anne.
[00:58] Lynde
    Everybody laughed at the idea
    of Marilla bringing up a child.
[01:01] Lynde
    And now she has adopted twins.
[01:04] Lynde
    You're never safe from being
    surprised till you're dead.

[02:45] Anne
    Welcome to Green Gables.
[02:49] Anne
    You must be Dora.
[02:52] Anne
    And that makes you...
[02:54] Davy
    I'm Mr. Davy Keith.
[02:57] Anne
    And full of life, I see.
[03:06] Marilla
    Davy, mind your table manners.
[03:10] Davy
    I'm so hungry I ain't
    got time to eat p'litely.
[03:16] Davy
    That cake's awful nice and plummy.
[03:18] Davy
    Can I have another piece?
[03:19] Anne
    Here.
[03:24] Marilla
    You ought to say thank you for that.
[03:27] Davy
    If you'll give me another piece
    I'll say thank you for it.
[03:30] Marilla
    No, you have had plenty of cake.
[03:35] Marilla
    Good heavens!
[03:37] Marilla
    Davy!
[03:40] Dora
    Thank you, Miss Cuthbert.
[03:43] Anne
    Davy, gentlemen don't do things like that.
[03:48] Davy
    I know they don't,
[03:49] Davy
    but I ain't a gemplum.
[03:52] Anne
    But don't you want to be?
[03:55] Davy
    Course I do.
[03:57] Davy
    But you can't be a
    gemplum till you grow up.
[04:01] Anne
    Oh, indeed you can.
[04:03] Anne
    You can begin to be a gentleman
    when you are a little boy.
[04:05] Anne
    And gentlemen never snatch things from
    ladies or pull anybody's hair.
[04:13] Marilla
    Anne.
[04:14] Anne
    Or forget to say thank you.
[04:24] Davy
    They don't have much fun, that's a fact.
[04:31] Davy
    I guess I'll wait till
    I'm grown up to be one.
[04:36] Marilla
    They'd better go to bed.
[04:39] Marilla
    Dora will sleep with me. You're not
    afraid to sleep alone, are you, Davy?
[04:44] Davy
    No; but I ain't going to
    bed for ever so long yet.
[04:48] Marilla
    Oh, yes, you are.
[04:50] Davy
    Why? What've I got to go to bed now for?
[04:53] Marilla
    Because I said so!
[04:54] Davy
    But why?
[04:58] Davy
    I don't wanna!
[04:59] Davy
    Marilla washed it yesterday.
[05:03] Davy
    I don't see the good of
    being so awful clean.
[05:07] Anne
    You're going to church today.
[05:08] Anne
    Wouldn't you feel ashamed of yourself,
    meeting new people with a dirty face?
[05:13] Davy
    I'd feel fine.
[05:14] Davy
    It's lots more comfable being dirty.
[05:18] Anne
    Paul Irving washes his face
    every day of his own accord.
[05:23] Davy
    Paul? Who's he?
[05:25] Anne
    One of my pupils.
[05:27] Anne
    He's not grown up, but he is a gentleman.
[05:30] Davy
    Do you like him, then?
[05:32] Anne
    Yes, I do.
[05:34] Marilla
    We ought to get going!
[05:47] Anne
    Paul!
[05:49] Paul
    Miss Anne!
[05:54] Paul
    Good morning, Miss Cuthbert.
[05:57] Marilla
    Good morning, Paul.
[05:59] Anne
    These are the latest additions
    to our family, Davy and Dora.
[06:03] Dora
    Pleased to meet you.
[06:04] Paul
    It's a pleasure to meet you, Dora.
[06:06] Paul
    And you, Da... vy?
[06:11] Allan
    In the Lord's name, we cherish
    justice and righteousness.
[06:17] Allan
    Yet human righteousness
    must have its limits.
[06:22] Allan
    When we become overzealous in enforcing
    our own idea of what is right on others,
[06:28] Allan
    we reveal the differences
    in our understandings
[06:32] Allan
    and risk creating conflict.
[06:36] Allan
    We may even drive others
    away, into isolation.
[06:40] Allan
    Remember that even righteous
    speech has the power to harm.
[06:48] Lauretta
    Mommer! Take it off! Get it out!
[06:52] Lauretta
    Worm! Worm! Worm!
[06:54] Lauretta
    It's going further down!
[06:59] Marilla
    Stay in your room for the rest of the day!
[07:23] Davy
    I s'pose that Paul Irving
[07:25] Davy
    wouldn't have dropped a caterpillar down
    a girl's neck in church, would he?
[07:30] Anne
    Indeed he wouldn't.
[07:33] Davy
    Well, I'm kind of sorry I did it, then.
[07:37] Davy
    But...
[07:39] Davy
    it was such a jolly big caterpillar.
[07:42] Davy
    It seemed a pity to waste him.
[07:46] Davy
    And say, wasn't it fun
    to hear that girl yell?
[07:57] Gilbert
    Today, I'd like to settle on a definite
    plan for improving the Avonlea hall.
[08:04] Diana
    We should have enough money subscribed
    to paint it and shingle the roof, too.
[08:09] Fred
    We had better decide on colors, then.
[08:12] Jane
    The roof will be dark red, of course.
[08:15] Anne
    Of course.
[08:16] Gilbert
    Now, what about the walls?
[08:18] Diana
    Why not a pretty green?
[08:21] Fred
    Good idea. I was thinking
    just the same thing.
[08:24] Diana
    Were you really?
[08:26] Fred
    Yes. I know green would look splendid.
[08:29] Gilbert
    So we'll have it painted green?
[08:32] Anne
    So it seems.
[08:33] Anne
    And I guess we'll ask
    Mr. Roger Pie to do the job.
[08:37] Gilbert
    The Pyes did subscribe the most, altogether.
[08:40] Anne
    Would you care for more tea?
[08:42] Diana
    Yes please.
[08:44] Gilbert
    In that case, we'll meet again in a week.
[08:49] Anne
    Wait, where is Dora?
[08:51] Diana
    She just went out back with Davy.
[08:55] Anne
    What?
[09:01] Anne
    Dora!
[09:06] Anne
    What has happened to you?
[09:07] Anne
    You're covered in mud.
[09:11] Dora
    Davy made me walk the pigpen fence.
[09:18] Anne
    Don't tell me you walked it?
[09:20] Dora
    I tried, but...
[09:23] Anne
    You fell in?
[09:28] Anne
    How could you do such a
    thing to your sister?
[09:30] Anne
    I'm truly disappointed in you.
[09:33] Anne
    Davy?!
[09:34] Davy
    I never feel sorry for doing things
    till after I've did them.
[09:39] Davy
    Dora wouldn't help me make pies,
    'cause she was afraid of messing her clo'es
[09:45] Davy
    and that made me hopping mad.
[09:54] Davy
    I s'pose Paul Irving
[09:55] Davy
    wouldn't have made his sister walk a
    pigpen fence if he knew she'd fall in?
[10:02] Anne
    No, he would never dream of such a thing.
[10:07] Anne
    Davy?
[10:08] Davy
    Anne, don't you like me a little bit,
[10:13] Davy
    even if I ain't a good boy like Paul?
[10:18] Anne
    Indeed I do.
[10:22] Davy
    You mean it?!
[10:23] Anne
    Yes.
[10:24] Anne
    But I'd like you better still
    if you weren't so naughty.
[10:31] Davy
    I... did something else today.
[10:34] Davy
    I'm sorry now, but I'm
    awful scared to tell you.
[10:37] Anne
    Davy, what is it you've done?
[10:42] Anne
    Davy, tell me what you've done!
[10:45] Davy
    I put a toad in Marilla's bed.
[10:49] Davy
    You can go and take it out if you like.
[10:51] Davy
    But say, wouldn't it be
    fun to leave it there?
[11:15] Davy
    I thought that'd make more fun.
[11:22] Davy
    Oh, well.
[11:37] Anne
    This last fortnight has been so peaceful,
[11:41] Anne
    and even Davy has been almost well-behaved.
[11:44] Anne
    How quiet the woods are today...
[11:49] Anne
    not a murmur except that soft
    wind purring in the treetops!
[11:54] Anne
    You beautiful trees!
[11:59] Anne
    I love every one of you as a friend.
[12:04] Diana
    Anne Shirley, you're only
    pretending to be grown up.
[12:10] Diana
    I believe when you're alone you're
    as much a little girl as you ever were.
[12:15] Anne
    You see, I was little for fourteen years
[12:18] Anne
    and I've only been grown-uppish
    for scarcely three.
[12:22] Anne
    These walks home from school are almost
    the only time I have for dreaming.
[12:28] Diana
    That sounds splendid.
[12:30] Anne
    Where are you going, Diana?
[12:33] Diana
    Down to the Dicksons.
[12:35] Diana
    I promised to help Alberta
    cut out her new dress.
[12:38] Diana
    Can't you walk down in the evening,
    Anne, and come home with me?
[12:41] Anne
    I might...
[12:42] Anne
    since Fred Wright is away in town
[12:47] Anne
    Is his company really so enjoyable?
[12:49] Diana
    I don't see why I should know.
[12:55] Anne
    Wait!
[12:56] Anne
    Don't leave me!
[12:58] Anne; Diana
    Really!
[13:02] Anne
    I'm home, Marilla.
[13:04] Marilla
    Anne, Dora is lost!
[13:08] Marilla
    I only just got home from Rachel's
    and no Dora to be seen.
[13:15] Anne
    Davy, do you know where she is?
[13:19] Davy
    No, I don't.
[13:20] Davy
    I haven't seen her since
    dinner time, cross my heart.
[13:25] Anne
    I see.
[13:25] Marilla
    I've hunted the whole house through.
[13:28] Anne
    She would never wander far away alone.
[13:31] Anne
    Let's search again.
[13:37] Marilla
    Dora!
[13:40] Anne
    Dora!
[13:42] Marilla
    It's a most mysterious thing.
[13:44] Anne
    Where can she be?
[13:46] Davy
    Maybe she's tumbled into the well.
[13:50] Marilla
    Did you see her?
[13:51] Davy
    No, but you've looked everywhere
    'cept round the well.
[14:04] Anne
    If Dora fell in here...
[14:09] Marilla
    Run across for Mr. Harrison.
[14:11] Anne
    Mr. Harrison is away.
[14:13] Anne
    I'll go for Mr. Barry.
[14:28] Barry
    She can't be down there.
[14:30] Barry
    Look here, young man, are you sure
    you've no idea where your sister is?
[14:35] Davy
    I've told you a dozen
    times that I haven't.
[14:37] Davy
    Maybe a tramp come and stole her.
[14:41] Marilla
    Nonsense.
[14:43] Marilla
    Anne, do you suppose she could have
    strayed over to Mr. Harrison's?
[14:47] Marilla
    She has always been talking about his parrot
    ever since that time you took her over.
[14:53] Anne
    I'll go over and see.
[14:57] Anne
    Dora! Dora!
[15:03] Ginger
    Redheaded snippet!
[15:05] Ginger
    Redheaded snippet!
[15:09] Anne
    Dora!
[15:11] Anne
    Do—
[15:14] Anne
    Dora...
[15:20] Anne
    Oh, Dora!
[15:21] Anne
    Dora, what a fright you have given us!
[15:24] Anne
    How came you to be here?
[15:26] Dora
    Davy and I came over to see Ginger,
[15:30] Dora
    but Mr. Harrison weren't here.
[15:33] Dora
    And then Davy brought me here
    and run out and shut the door.
[15:39] Dora
    I cried and cried, I was frightened,
[15:41] Dora
    and I thought you'd never come.
[15:45] (Flashback) Davy
    Cross my heart.
[15:49] Marilla
    Dora!
[15:50] Marilla
    Mr. Barry, Dora is here!
[15:54] Barry
    Thank heavens.
[16:00] Anne
    Where is Davy?
[16:03] Marilla
    I found him hiding in the stable.
[16:16] Anne
    How could you behave so, Davy?!
[16:21] Davy
    I... I just did it for fun.
[16:24] Davy
    I thought it would be fun to
    give you folks a big scare.
[16:29] Anne
    But you told a falsehood about it, Davy.
[16:32] Davy
    What's a falsehood? Do you mean a whopper?
[16:35] Anne
    I mean a story that was not true.
[16:39] Davy
    Course I did. Everybody tells whoppers.
[16:44] Davy
    If I hadn't, you wouldn't
    have been scared.
[16:47] Davy
    I had to tell it.
[16:51] Davy
    Anne?
[16:52] Davy
    What are you crying for?
[16:54] Davy
    You're supposed to get scared!
[16:56] Davy
    That's why I—
[16:58] Anne
    Oh, Davy, how could you?
    Don't you know how wrong it was?
[17:04] Davy
    Anne...
[17:14] Davy
    I'm sorry, Anne!
[17:15] Davy
    I didn't know it was
    wrong to tell whoppers!
[17:20] Davy
    How did you expect me to know it was wrong?
[17:21] Davy
    All Mr. Sprott's children
    told them regular every day.
[17:26] Davy
    I s'pose Paul Irving never tells whoppers
[17:30] Davy
    and here I've been trying awful
    hard to be as good as him,
[17:35] Davy
    but it ain't easy.
[17:43] Davy
    Now I s'pose you'll never love me again.
[17:48] Davy
    I'm awful sorry I've made you cry, Anne.
[17:51] Anne
    Listen, Davy,
[17:53] Anne
    there is plenty of fun to be had in
    this world without telling falsehoods.
[18:00] Anne
    I'll teach you.
[18:06] Anne
    He didn't know it was wrong
    to tell falsehoods, Marilla.
[18:11] Anne
    I think we must forgive him if he will
    promise never to say what isn't true again.
[18:17] Davy
    I never will, now that I know it's bad.
[18:22] Davy
    If you ever catch me telling a whopper
    again you can... you can skin me alive.
[18:30] Anne
    You mustn't say such things.
[18:35] Davy
    Fine, then. What'll you do to me this time?
[18:39] Davy
    I want to know.
[18:41] Marilla
    That's a good question.
[18:43] Marilla
    I can't think of any way except to
    send him to bed without his supper.
[18:48] Marilla
    Can't you suggest something else
    with that imagination of yours, Anne?
[18:53] Anne
    That will do.
[18:55] Anne
    I like to imagine only pleasant things.
[19:00] Anne
    There are so many unpleasant
    things in the world already
[19:06] Anne
    that there is no use in imagining any more.
[19:14] Davy
    Anne, is it wrong for everybody
    to tell falsehoods?
[19:18] Anne
    Yes, indeed.
[19:19] Davy
    Is it wrong for a grown-up person?
[19:20] Anne
    Yes.
[19:21] Davy
    Then, Marilla is bad, for she tells them.
[19:25] Anne
    Davy Keith, Marilla never
    told a story in her life.
[19:29] Davy
    She did so.
[19:31] Davy
    She told me that something
    dreadful would happen to me
[19:33] Davy
    if I didn't say my prayers every night.
[19:35] Davy
    And I haven't said them for over a week,
     just to see what would happen...
[19:43] Davy
    and nothing has.
[19:46] Davy
    Why not, if she doesn't tell falsehoods?
[19:49] Anne
    Why, Davy Keith, something dreadful
    has happened to you this very day.
[19:54] Davy
    I s'pose you mean being sent
    to bed without any supper,
[19:57] Davy
    but that isn't dreadful.
[20:00] Davy
    I always eat twice as much for breakfast.
[20:03] Anne
    I don't mean your being sent to bed.
[20:04] Anne
    I mean the fact that you
    told a falsehood today.
[20:10] Anne
    For a boy to tell what isn't true is almost
    the worst thing that could happen to him.
[20:14] Anne
    So you see Marilla told you the truth.
[20:20] Davy
    Oh.
[20:22] Davy
    But I thought the something
    bad would be exciting.
[20:32] Marilla
    I suppose I shouldn't have told him that,
[20:35] Marilla
    although I heard a minister
    say it to a child once.
[20:41] Anne
    And that convinced them, I suppose.
[20:44] Anne
    But Davy isn't so easily satisfied.
[20:47] Marilla
    True enough.
[20:48] Marilla
    I do not know what we are
    going to do with that child.
[20:51] Marilla
    And Dora is such a good girl.
[20:54] Anne
    A good child brings her own challenges.
[20:56] Anne
    And remember how bad I was when I came here.
[21:02] Marilla
    You were always getting
    into terrible scrapes.
[21:11] Anne
    I don't see that I said anything so funny.
[21:16] Anne
    Davy's mind has to have
    something to occupy it,
[21:21] Anne
    just as mine did.
[21:23] Marilla
    You may be right.
[21:25] Anne
    You and Matthew helped me
    to get as far as I have.
[21:30] Anne
    I'd like to do the same for those children.
[21:35] Anne
    Perhaps we always love best
    the people who need us.
[21:42] Anne
    And they need us badly.
[21:46] Marilla
    You know, Matthew once told me just that.
[21:51] Anne
    Did he really?
[21:53] Anne
    And who was it who needed Matthew?
[21:59] Anne
    Tell me. I want to know!

[00:01] Anne
    Ten whole months have flown by since
    Davy and Dora came to Green Gables.
[00:08] Anne
    Right when the children had
    really come to feel at home,
[00:11] Anne
    we got notice of a most unexpected visit.
[00:16] Davy
    I'm awful hungry.
[00:20] Anne
    I'll give you a biscuit in a minute.
[00:22] Davy
    But I ain't biscuit hungry.
[00:25] Davy
    I'm plum cake hungry.
[00:27] Anne
    That's a kind of hunger that
    can be endured very comfortably.
[00:34] Davy
    Well, gimme a biscuit, then.
[00:40] Anne
    Oh, Marilla!
[00:41] Anne
    What do you think this letter is about?
[00:44] Marilla
    I'm sure I don't know.
[00:45] Anne
    It's from Priscilla, my friend from Queen's,
[00:48] Anne
    and she says that Mrs. Morgan
    is on the Island.
[00:52] Marilla
    The Mrs. Morgan who writes those
    novels you're always reading?
[00:56] Anne
    The very same!
[00:57] Anne
    The Rosebud Garden is my special favorite.
[01:01] Anne
    Mrs. Morgan is a distant
    relative of Priscilla's,
[01:05] Anne
    and if it is fine Thursday, they are going
    to drive up to Avonlea for dinner.
[01:10] Anne
    Oh, isn't it wonderful?
[01:13] Anne
    I can hardly believe I'm not dreaming.
[01:15] Marilla
    I daresay Mrs. Morgan is
    a lot like other people.
[01:19] Anne
    Oh, Marilla, may I cook every
    bit of the dinner myself?
[01:23] Anne
    I want to feel that I can do something
    for the author of The Rosebud Garden.
[01:27] Marilla
    I daresay you wouldn't
    take no for an answer.
[01:31] Marilla
    You're quite welcome to the job.
[01:33] Anne
    Oh, thank you!
[01:35] Anne
    Then we ought to invite
    Mr. and Mrs. Allan and Miss Stacy, too.
[01:39] Anne
    And I'll ask Diana over to help.
[01:41] Marilla
    You'd better not try to
    put on too much style.
[01:44] Anne
    I won't!
[01:46] Anne
    What shall we put on the menu?
[01:48] Anne
    And how shall we dress the place up?
[01:50] Anne
    I simply must put on a marvelous
    dinner for Mrs. Morgan!

[03:31] Anne
    I'll have a light soup to begin with,
[03:35] Anne
    and then a couple of roast fowls.
[03:38] Davy
    If Marilla'll hold them by
    the legs, I'll manage the axe.
[03:42] Anne
    I'd appreciate it.
[03:45] Anne
    Then I'll have peas and beans and
    creamed potatoes and a lettuce salad.
[03:51] Anne
    Dora, would you help me shell the peas?
[03:55] Dora
    Of course.
[03:56] Anne
    I'm having very important
    guests tomorrow, you two.
[04:00] Anne
    Promise me you'll be on your best behavior.
[04:02] Davy; Dora
    We will!
[04:03] Anne
    Good. Then we'll start with a cleaning!
[04:14] Diana
    Say, Anne,
[04:16] Diana
    what do you imagine Mrs. Morgan is like?
[04:18] Anne
    I've imagined her a
    dozen different ways.
[04:22] Anne
    What she'll look like,
    and what she'll say.
[04:25] Anne
    And I'm so anxious about
    the freckles on my nose.
[04:29] Anne
    All Mrs. Morgan's heroines
    have such perfect complexions.
[04:34] Diana
    They're not very noticeable.
[04:36] Anne
    Do you think so?
[04:38] Diana
    Try a little lemon juice on them
    tonight if they really bother you.
[04:42] Anne
    I'll give that a try.
[04:45] Davy
    Anne, why's your nose all
    shiny? I want to know.
[04:49] Anne
    I put lemon juice on it.
[04:51] Davy
    What'd you want to do that for?
[04:55] Anne
    Because I want to look my best.
[04:57] Davy
    Huh.
[04:59] Anne
    Thank you for all your help today, Davy-boy.
[05:02] Anne
    Will you promise to behave
    yourself again tomorrow?
[05:05] Davy
    If I'm as good as good
    can be all day tomorrow.
[05:07] Davy
    will you let me be just as bad
    as I like all the next day?
[05:10] Anne
    I couldn't do that,
[05:12] Anne
    but I'll take you and Dora
    for a row in the flat.
[05:16] Davy
    Really? It's a bargain!
[05:18] Davy
    I meant to go over to Mr. Harrison's and
    fire peas from my new popgun at Ginger,
[05:23] Davy
    but another day'll do as well.
[05:25] Anne
    You shouldn't do that any day.
[05:27] Davy
    I bet tomorrow'll be no fun,
    since I'll have to be good all the time.
[05:32] Anne
    I won't let that happen.
[05:34] Anne
    We're having my dear Mrs. Morgan to dinner;
[05:37] Anne
    I'll make it a wonderful day!
[05:47] Anne
    It looks like a lovely day.
[05:55] Diana
    Good morning, Anne.
[05:56] Anne
    Good morning, Diana.
[05:58] Anne
    You look simply sweet in that apron.
[06:00] Diana
    This is for the preparations.
[06:02] Diana
    Of course I'll wear my
    white muslin to dinner.
[06:07] Anne
    I know you'll look lovely in it.
[06:08] Diana
    But it's a little tight.
[06:10] Diana
    I weigh four pounds more
    than I did last month.
[06:13] Diana
    Mrs. Morgan's heroines
    are all tall and slender.
[06:18] Anne
    And what if they are?
[06:20] Anne
    You're Diana Barry with the dearest dimples.
[06:22] Anne
    Let's forget our troubles
    and think of our mercies.
[06:25] Anne
    If I have a freckled nose,
    the shape of it is all right.
[06:30] Diana
    Yes, it is.
[06:31] Anne
    Do you think the lemon juice did any good?
[06:34] Diana
    Yes, I really think it did.
[06:36] Anne
    Did it really? Thank goodness!
[06:38] Diana
    I'll help you pick flowers.
[06:40] Anne
    We'll decorate the parlor first,
     then set the table.
[06:46] Anne
    Priscilla said they'd
    be here about twelve.
[06:49] Diana
    Yes!
[06:55] Anne
    Let's put an allusion to
     The Rosebud Garden at Mrs. Morgan's place.
[07:00] Diana
    What a lovely idea!
[07:16] Anne
    I'm pleased to see you being good, Davy.
[07:19] Davy
    I promised, didn't I?
[07:25] Anne
    Now if only my freckles don't
    make themselves too obvious.
[07:29] Diana
    I do hope I'll be able to say
    something once in a while.
[07:31] Anne
    I don't think there is much fear
    that I won't be able to talk.
[07:38] Anne
    It was so good of you all to come.
[07:41] Mr. Allan
    Thank you for inviting us today.
[07:44] Mrs. Allan
    The thought of it has brightened our days.
[07:46] Stacy
    How nice to see you again, Anne, Diana.
[07:49] Stacy
    You both look charming.
[07:52] Anne; Diana
    Thank you very much.
[07:57] Diana
    They're awfully late.
[07:59] Anne
    Suppose they don't come at all?
[08:01] Diana
    Don't suppose it.
[08:03] Diana
    But they really ought to be here by now.
[08:11] Marilla
    Anne, Miss Stacy wants to
    see the willowware platter.
[08:16] Anne
    I thought she would. I'm just wiping it.
[08:27] Anne
    Davy?!
[08:28] Davy
    I finished raveling out my herring net
    and went to put it on the shelf, only...
[08:34] Marilla
    Davy Keith, didn't I forbid you to climb
    up on that table again? Didn't I?
[08:38] Davy
    I forgot.
[08:41] Davy
    You've told me not to do such an awful lot
    of things that I can't remember them all.
[08:45] Marilla
    Well, you march upstairs and
    stay there till after dinner!
[08:48] Davy
    I didn't mean to fall on the pie.
[08:52] Davy
    Since it's spoiled, can't I take
    some of the pieces upstairs with me?
[08:58] Anne
    No, you may not!
[09:00] Diana
    What shall we do for dessert?
[09:03] Anne
    I think we have a crock
    of strawberry preserves.
[09:07] Diana
    There's plenty of whipped cream
     left in the bowl for it.
[09:17] Anne
    Something must have delayed them.
[09:19] Marilla
    We cannot keep the Allans or
    Miss Stacy waiting any longer.
[09:25] Marilla
    Shall we go ahead and have dinner now?
[09:28] Anne
    No, I know that they'll be here.
[09:31] Anne
    Mrs. Morgan's heroines
    always rise to the occasion.
[09:38] Diana
    Anne, did you put sugar in these peas?
[09:42] Anne
    Yes, I put a spoonful of
    sugar in. We always do.
[09:46] Diana
    But I put a spoonful in too,
    when I set them on the stove.
[09:52] Anne
    They're sweet! How awful!
[09:53] Marilla
    It's a case of too many cooks, I guess.
[09:56] Marilla
    I didn't think you'd remember about
    the sugar, Anne, so I put in a spoonful.
[10:07] Anne
    Well, there will be no green peas today.
[10:16] Anne
    No!
[10:19] Marilla
    Davy!
[10:20] Marilla
    Did you throw that conch down on purpose?!
[10:23] Davy
    No, I never did. I got hungry and tried
    to go downstairs and my hand slipped.
[10:29] Marilla
    Well, look what you've done!
[10:31] Anne
    Don't blame Davy.
[10:34] Anne
    It was my fault. I set that platter
    there and forgot all about it.
[10:41] Anne
    Mrs. Morgan?! Now, of all times?!
[10:47] Lynde
    Good afternoon.
[10:49] Marilla
    Rachel?
[10:50] Anne
    O-Oh, it's only you.
[10:52] Lynde
    Only me, is it?
[10:55] Lynde
    I just came from the post office.
    A letter's come for you,
[10:59] Lynde
    and I'm here to deliver it.
[11:01] Anne
    It's from Priscilla.
    She posted it yesterday.
[11:06] Anne
    "Oh, Anne dear, I know this is sudden,
    but Aunty has sprained her ankle."
[11:10] Anne
    "I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid we won't
    get up to Green Gables at all now,"
[11:14] Anne
    "for by the time Aunty's ankle is well,
    she will have to go back to Toronto."
[11:25] Lynde
    I hope I'm not imposing.
[11:29] Anne
    It was too good to be true.
[11:31] Anne
    Perhaps when Diana and I are old and gray,
    we shall be able to laugh over today.
[11:37] Anne
    But not before then, for it has
    truly been a bitter disappointment.
[11:42] Anne
    Have you heard about the hall?
[11:44] Marilla
    Yes, they painted it a brilliant blue.
[11:48] Anne
    They were meant to paint
    it a beautiful green.
[11:51] Anne
    It was to be the symbol of our society.
[11:55] Marilla
    You are never going to outgrow your fashion
    of setting your heart so on things
[11:58] Marilla
    and then crashing down into despair
    because you don't get them.
[12:02] Anne
    I know I'm too much inclined that way.
[12:05] Anne
    When I think something
    nice is going to happen,
[12:09] Anne
    I seem to fly right up on
    the wings of anticipation.
[12:14] Anne
    But the flying part is glorious
    as long as it lasts.
[12:17] Anne
    It's like soaring through a sunset.
[12:21] Anne
    I think it almost pays for the thud.
[12:25] Marilla
    I'd rather walk calmly along and
    do without both flying and thud.
[12:29] Marilla
    Where's Davy?
[12:31] Anne
    In bed. I've promised to take him and
    Dora to the shore for a picnic tomorrow.
[12:36] Anne
    He tried to be good, and I hadn't
    the heart to disappoint him.
[12:40] Marilla
    You'll drown yourself or the twins,
    rowing about the pond in that flat.
[12:45] Anne
    Suppose you come with us tomorrow.
[12:47] Marilla
    No, thank you.
[12:49] Marilla
    There's Gilbert coming up the lane.
[12:54] Marilla
    Why don't you invite him
    for a row on the pond?
[12:57] Anne
    Yes, perhaps I will.
[13:15] Davy
    Nothing beats a boat!
[13:18] Gilbert
    Be careful!
[13:21] Davy
    I wouldn't have minded if I fell in!
[13:23] Gilbert
    I know the feeling, Davy,
    but do you know how to swim?
[13:27] Davy
    Not a bit!
[13:29] Gilbert
    Then don't say you wouldn't mind falling in.
[13:31] Gilbert
    You'll get a great bloated belly
    full of water if you drown.
[13:35] Davy
    Would I?!
[13:37] Davy
    I'd like a big, full belly!
[13:40] Gilbert
    Do you know how to swim, Dora?
[13:42] Dora
    No, I don't.
[13:44] Gilbert
    Then I'll teach you sometime.
[13:46] Dora
    Would you really?!
[13:47] Dora
    I love you, Gilbert!
[13:50] Davy
    But I bet I could swim,
    even if I'd never learned how.
[13:54] Davy
    The boat's so much fun,
     it makes me want to give it a try.
[13:58] Anne
    No. We didn't bring swimming things today.
[14:00] Davy
    Oh, you're no fun.
[14:02] Davy
    I wanted a soak and a splash.
[14:05] Davy
    Say, do you think I could swim to that bank?
[14:26] Paul
    Teacher!
[14:29] Anne
    Paul.
[14:31] Anne
    Are you visiting a grave, too?
[14:33] Paul
    Yes.
[14:34] Paul
    I'm taking this bouquet of geraniums to
    put on Grandpa Irving's grave for Grandma.
[14:39] Paul
    And I'm leaving this bunch of white roses
     in memory of my little mother.
[14:46] Anne
    Your mother passed away in
    the States, didn't she?
[14:50] Paul
    Yes. It's just three years
    today since she died.
[14:56] Paul
    I'm sure Father will be visiting her grave
    in Boston soon, if he hasn't already.
[15:02] Paul
    It's been three whole years.
[15:05] Anne
    Paul...
[15:06] Paul
    Such a long, long time but it
    hurts just as much as ever.
[15:11] Paul
    Sometimes it seems to me that
    I just can't bear it, it hurts so.
[15:15] Anne
    And yet you wouldn't
    want it to stop hurting.
[15:21] Anne
    You wouldn't want to forget your
    little mother even if you could.
[15:30] Paul
    You're so good at understanding, teacher.
[15:33] Paul
    I couldn't talk much to Father about Mother,
     because it made him feel so bad.
[15:39] Paul
    When he put his hand over his face,
    I always knew it was time to stop.
[15:48] Anne
    Paul...
[15:52] Anne
    See here, Paul, you mustn't blame yourself.
    Nor your father, of course.
[15:59] Paul
    Father's splendid when
    you do get to know him.
[16:03] Paul
    I love him the best in all the world,
     and Grandma Irving next,
[16:08] Paul
    and then you, teacher.
[16:10] Anne
    Goodness!
[16:11] Paul
    I'd love you next to father if it wasn't
    my duty to love Grandma Irving best,
[16:16] Paul
    because she's doing so much for me.
[16:18] Anne
    Yes, and I love you, too, Paul.
[16:22] Anne
    If you don't mind, would you
    tell me about your mother?
[16:25] Paul
    Of course.
[16:26] Paul
    Mrs. Lynde came over the other day.
[16:30] Paul
    She looked at a photo of Mother and said,
[16:32] Paul
    "She's a real pretty woman, but I daresay
    your father will find another wife."
[16:39] Paul
    She gave me such a shock, I thought
    I might die then and there.
[16:52] Marilla
    Now, Davy, you try to be a good
    boy and don't bother Anne.
[16:57] Davy
    I won't be bad on purpose,
     but s'posen I'm bad zacksidentally?
[17:03] Marilla
    You'll have to guard against accidents.
[17:06] Marilla
    Anne, if Mr. Shearer comes
    today, get some steak.
[17:12] Anne
    I'll remember.
[17:13] Marilla
    Well then, I'd best be off.
[17:15] Anne; Davy
    Take care.
[17:17] Anne
    Come along, Davy-boy.
    You'll help me clean the house today.
[17:22] Davy
    All right.
[17:24] Davy
    But I want a cookie first.
[17:26] Anne
    Not till we're done!
[17:38] Anne
    More rampant than ever.
[17:43] Davy
    What're you looking for, Anne?
[17:46] Anne
    My freckle lotion. I found the
    recipe for it in a magazine.
[17:50] Anne
    Here it is!
[17:58] Anne
    That must be Mr. Shearer.
[18:01] Anne
    Here I am!
[18:03] Anne
    Mr. Shearer, we'd like some steak and...
[18:06] Priscilla
    It's dreadful to come upon
    you so unexpectedly as this.
[18:08] Priscilla
    This is Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Pendexter.
[18:15] Anne
    M-M-Mrs. Morgan?!
[18:18] Anne
    W-Welcome to Green Gables.
[18:21] Anne
    It's an honor to meet you.
[18:23] Anne
    My name is Anne Shirley.
[18:28] Anne
    I didn't expect Mrs. Morgan to be
    a stout little gray-haired woman.
[18:32] Priscilla
    The tall one is Mrs. Pendexter.
[18:35] Priscilla
    She lives in New York and her
    husband is a millionaire.
[18:37] Anne
    In any event, this is all awfully sudden.
    I can still feel my heart racing.
[18:41] Priscilla
    I'm so sorry. Aunty's ankle felt better
     sooner than we expected,
[18:46] Priscilla
    and she wanted to meet you,
    so I brought her over.
[18:49] Priscilla
    But really, Anne, your nose...
[18:52] Anne
    My freckles, you mean!
[18:54] Anne
    I know, but it's no use fretting.
[18:56] Anne
    I'll run and get things ready for tea.
[19:00] Anne
    Thank goodness Marilla made preserves.
[19:04] Diana
    Do you have company, Anne?
    I saw a strange carriage outside.
[19:09] Anne
    Diana, you couldn't have
    come at a better time.
[19:11] Anne
    Who do you suppose is in that
    parlor at this very moment?
[19:16] Anne
    Oh, Diana, don't look at me so.
    You, at least, must be used to my freckles.
[19:20] Diana
    It isn't your freckles, Anne.
    It's your nose.
[19:24] Anne
    My nose? Surely nothing
    has gone wrong with it!
[19:30] Anne
    What?
[19:31] Anne
    What?!
[19:36] Diana
    What is the matter with it?
[19:38] Anne
    I thought I was rubbing
    my freckle lotion on it,
[19:40] Anne
    but I must have used that red dye Marilla
    has for marking the pattern on her rugs.
[19:44] Anne
    What shall I do?
[19:46] Diana
    It's blazing scarlet,
    although I don't like to say so.
[19:52] Anne
    I don't care how much it hurts!
    Scrub as hard as you can!
[19:57] Diana
    I'm trying to!
[19:58] Anne
    First I dye my hair; then I dye my nose.
[20:04] Anne
    Marilla cut my hair off when I dyed it
[20:07] Anne
    but that remedy would hardly
    be practicable in this case.
[20:09] Diana
    It's awfully stubborn!
[20:11] Anne
    Wait, that hurts! It hurts!
[20:14] Anne
    What good will rubbing it even redder do?!
[20:17] Diana
    You said you didn't mind if it hurt!
[20:22] Morgan
    These preserved plums taste delightful.
[20:26] Anne
    Yes. Marilla made them.
[20:29] Pendexter
    A really refined flavor.
[20:32] Pendexter
    May I ask for another helping?
[20:34] Anne
    Yes, of course.
[20:42] Anne
    And so I brushed on the dye, trying to turn
    my hair black, but it came out green.
[20:47] Anne
    Even red hair was better than that.
[20:52] Anne
    Yet here I am four years later,
[20:54] Anne
    turning my nose red with what
    I thought was freckle cream.
[20:58] Anne
    I certainly am clumsy with dyes!
[21:09] Morgan; Pendexter
    Good day.
[21:11] Anne
    Take care!
[21:12] Davy
    Bye-bye!
[21:21] Anne
    It has indeed been a feast of reason
    and flow of soul, hasn't it?
[21:25] Anne
    I don't know which I enjoyed more,
[21:29] Anne
    listening to Mrs. Morgan or
    gazing at Mrs. Pendexter.
[21:33] Diana
    Mrs. Pendexter is rich, and yet she took
    a second helping of the plum preserves.
[21:39] Anne
    I daresay even an English earl
[21:41] Anne
    wouldn't have turned up his aristocratic
    nose at Marilla's plum preserves.
[21:49] Anne
    I shall never try any
    beautifying messes again.
[21:52] Anne
    A few freckles are preferable to a red nose.
[21:59] Anne
    I'm more like myself with them.

[00:05] Diana
    We'll never reach the Kimballs'
    in time for tea now.
[00:12] Anne
    If only we at least knew where we were.
[00:17] Anne
    Diana and I accepted an
    invitation from a friend
[00:20] Anne
    and got ourselves lost in the woods.
[00:24] Diana
    What shall we do?
[00:26] Diana
    Should we turn back and go home?
[00:29] Anne
    Wait.
[00:30] Anne
    There's a house.
[00:35] Diana
    Why, it's Echo Lodge.
[00:41] Diana
    Miss Lavendar Lewis lives here.
    They say she is very peculiar.
[00:45] Anne
    Lavendar Lewis?
[00:47] (Flashback) Lynde
    That Paul is Stephen Irving's boy.
[00:51] (Flashback) Lynde
    You remember. Him that jilted
    Lavendar Lewis over at Grafton?
[00:59] Anne
    I've heard her name before.
[01:04] Charlotta
    Come in, ma'am. And you, ma'am.
[01:07] Anne
    Is Miss Lewis at home?
[01:10] Charlotta
    I'll tell Miss Lavendar
    you're here, ma'am.
[01:15] Charlotta
    And sit down, ma'am.
[01:16] Diana
    Couldn't she have directed us to the road?
[01:19] Anne
    I was curious to see Miss Lavendar.
[01:36] Lavendar
    Welcome to Echo Lodge.
[01:39] Lavendar
    Won't you stay and have tea with me?
[01:42] Anne
    But you are expecting other
    guests, aren't you?
[01:45] Lavendar
    Not at all.
[01:46] Lavendar
    So few people ever come here.
[01:49] Lavendar
    So we just pretended we were
    going to have a tea party.
[01:54] Lavendar
    I know you'll think me dreadfully foolish.
[01:58] Anne
    Oh, no, I—
[01:59] Lavendar
    It's quite all right. I am foolish.
[02:02] Lavendar
    And I'm ashamed of it
    when I'm found out.
SIGN    Chapter 14
SIGN    It Is Never Too Late for the Real Prince to Come
    for the True Princess
[03:41] Marilla
    Lavendar Lewis?
[03:43] Marilla
    It's over fifteen years
    since I saw her last.
[03:46] Marilla
    She was reckoned a great
    beauty when she was a girl.
[03:49] Marilla
    Davy Keith!
[03:51] Marilla
    Don't spread yourself over
    the table in that fashion!
[03:51] Anne
    Her hair is snow-white but her
    face is fresh and almost girlish,
[03:56] Anne
    and she's very interesting.
[04:00] (Flashback) Lavendar
    Of course it's silly in
    anybody as old as I am.
[04:03] (Flashback) Lavendar
    But what is the use of being
    an independent old maid
[04:06] (Flashback) Lavendar
    if you can't be silly when you want to,
     and when it doesn't hurt anybody?
[04:13] Anne
    Miss Lavendar imagines things, too.
[04:18] Anne
    But when we were plucking flowers from
    her garden and getting ready to leave...
[04:24] Anne
    my tongue slipped.
[04:30] (Flashback) Lavendar
    Paul Irving?
[04:33] (Flashback) Anne
    He is a little pupil of mine.
[04:36] (Flashback) Anne
    He came from Boston last year
[04:38] (Flashback) Anne
    to live with his grandmother,
    Mrs. Irving of the shore road.
[04:45] (Flashback) Lavendar
    Then he must be...
[04:47] (Flashback) Lavendar
    Stephen Irving's son.
[04:52] Anne
    That was rash of me.
[04:54] Marilla
    Don't go nosing into other people's affairs.
[04:57] Anne
    I really did not mean to!
[05:01] Anne
    I do wonder what went wrong between
    Miss Lavendar and Paul's father.
[05:07] Marilla
    It must have been something terrible,
    for they broke off their engagement.
[05:12] Marilla
    Then Stephen went away to the
    States and never come home since.
[05:17] Anne
    Perhaps it was nothing
    very dreadful after all.
[05:22] Anne
    It's time I went to the A.V.I.S. meeting.
[05:24] Anne
    Please don't say anything about my
    being at Miss Lavendar's to Mrs. Lynde.
[05:28] Marilla
    I won't, though Rachel's tied down
    home now on account of Thomas.
[05:31] Davy
    Now that tastes fine!
[05:33] Marilla
    Davy!
[05:35] Marilla
    Do stop squirming like an eel!
[05:35] Davy
    It tastes too good to stop!
[05:41] Anne
    Diana and I paid many a visit
    to Echo Lodge after that.
[05:49] Anne
    On days when Diana could
    not go, I went alone.
[05:56] Anne
    Miss Lavendar!
[05:59] Lavendar
    I thought you would come tonight, Anne!
[06:05] Lavendar
    Charlotta the Fourth is away for the night.
[06:09] Lavendar
    I should have been very lonely
    if you hadn't come.
[06:13] Anne
    I told Marilla that I planned to
    stay the night at Echo Lodge.
[06:20] Lavendar
    I'm doubly glad.
[06:22] Lavendar
    Oh, Anne, how pretty you are!
[06:28] Lavendar
    Charlotta the Fourth is the
    youngest of four sisters.
[06:32] Lavendar
    Her real name is...
[06:35] Lavendar
    Leonora!
[06:37] Anne
    Charlotta the Fourth is named Leonora?
[06:40] Lavendar
    Charlotta is her oldest sister's name.
[06:44] Lavendar
    She stayed with me till she was sixteen.
[06:49] Lavendar
    Then came her sister...
[06:51] Lavendar
    Oh, yes! Julietta!
[06:53] Lavendar
    But she looked so like Charlotta that
    I kept calling her that all the time.
[07:00] Lavendar
    And she didn't mind.
[07:02] Lavendar
    So I just gave up trying to remember her
    right name. She was Charlotta the Second.
[07:07] Lavendar
    And when she went away Evelina came
    and she was Charlotta the Third.
[07:12] Lavendar
    Now I have Charlotta the Fourth.
[07:17] Lavendar
    Have I said something funny?
[07:25] Lavendar
    Stephen Irving and me?
[07:28] Anne
    Yes, I've heard that you
    and he were engaged once.
[07:32] Lavendar
    So we were, twenty-five years ago.
[07:39] Lavendar
    We'd been engaged in a way almost
    all our lives, you might say.
[07:46] Lavendar
    He was nine and I was six.
[08:00] Lavendar
    The next time we met,
[08:02] Lavendar
    he told me that he had pretty well made up
     his mind to marry me when he grew up.
[08:08] Lavendar
    I remember that I said, "Thank you."
[08:12] Lavendar
    But...
[08:14] Lavendar
    Not long after our engagement,
[08:17] Lavendar
    we had just a stupid, silly,
    commonplace quarrel.
[08:21] Lavendar
    He was a very high-strung, sensitive fellow.
[08:24] Lavendar
    I suppose I provoked him by
    some foolishness of mine.
[08:29] Lavendar
    One day, when Stephen came
    back to mend matters,
[08:37] Lavendar
    I wouldn't listen to him.
[08:46] Lavendar
    And so he went away for good.
[08:55] Lavendar
    I might have sent for him perhaps,
[08:59] Lavendar
    but I couldn't humble myself to do that.
[09:04] Lavendar
    I knew I would rather be an old maid than
    marry anybody who wasn't Stephen Irving.
[09:11] Lavendar
    Anne?
[09:14] Anne
    I'm sorry. I just...
[09:20] Lavendar
    You look sympathetic as only seventeen
    can look. But don't overdo it.
[09:26] Lavendar
    My heart did break, if ever a heart did,
[09:30] Lavendar
    but real life won't let you stay miserable.
[09:33] Lavendar
    I'm really a very happy, contented little
    person in spite of my broken heart.
[09:39] Lavendar
    I enjoy dreams and echoes and peanut candy.
[09:47] Lavendar
    It gave me a shock to hear about Stephen's
    son that first day you were here, Anne.
[09:54] Lavendar
    What sort of a boy is he?
[09:56] Anne
    He is the dearest, sweetest
    child I ever knew.
[10:01] Lavendar
    I'd like to see him.
[10:03] Lavendar
    I wonder if he looks anything like the
    little dream-boy who lives here with me...
[10:09] Lavendar
    my little dream-boy.
[10:13] Anne
    I'll bring him through with me sometime.
[10:16] Lavendar
    Truly?
[10:17] Anne
    Yes.
[10:18] Lavendar
    But not too soon. I want to
    get used to the thought.
[10:22] Anne
    Oh, am I being rash again?
[10:26] (Flashback) Marilla
    Don't go nosing into other people's affairs.
[10:29] Anne
    I won't tell Marilla. And Paul...
[10:33] Anne
    What shall I say to Paul?
[10:42] Paul
    Why does Miss Lewis want
    to see me, do you think?
[10:46] Anne
    Miss Lavendar pretends
    things just like we do.
[10:51] Anne
    I suppose she wants to talk
    with you because of that.
[10:55] Paul
    Does she really? That sounds like fun.
[11:05] Lavendar
    Welcome.
[11:07] Anne
    And this is Miss Lavendar.
[11:10] Paul
    Good day.
[11:12] Lavendar
    Good day to you, too.
[11:20] Lavendar
    You... You are very like your father.
[11:23] Paul
    Everybody says I'm a
    chip off the old block.
[11:26] Paul
    Do you know Father?
[11:29] Lavendar
    I did. A long time ago.
[11:32] Anne
    I couldn't begin to imagine
[11:34] Anne
    what pain this meeting
    would cause Miss Lavendar.
[11:51] Anne
    Then Miss Lavendar and Paul
    took to each other in no time.
[11:56] Diana
    I knew they would.
[11:58] Anne
    I also learned where
    Echo Lodge got its name.
[12:09] (Flashback) Lavendar
    Charlotta the Fourth and I often sit out
    here and amuse ourselves with echoes.
[12:16] (Flashback) Paul
    Hello!
[12:21] (Flashback) Charlotta
    Well done, sir.
[12:22] (Flashback) Anne
    That was wonderful, Paul.
[12:25] Anne
    And as we were going, Paul said to
    Miss Lavendar, "You may kiss me if you like."
[12:32] Anne
    A goodbye kiss, of course.
[12:37] (Flashback) Lavendar
    How did you know I wanted to kiss you?
[12:41] (Flashback) Paul
    Because you looked at me just
    as my little mother used to do.
[12:48] (Flashback) Paul
    I think I'd like to have you for a particular
    friend of mine, if you don't object.
[12:54] (Flashback) Lavendar
    I... I don't think I shall object.
[12:58] (Flashback) Paul
    I like Miss Lavendar.
[13:02] (Flashback) Paul
    I like the way she looked at me,
[13:05] (Flashback) Paul
    and I like her stone house,
    and I like Charlotta the Fourth.
[13:10] Anne
    I didn't know what to say to him.
[13:15] Diana
    Who knows how this story will end?
[13:19] Diana
    Anne, I'm going to ask
    you a serious question.
[13:21] Diana
    Do you care anything for Gilbert?
[13:24] Anne
    Ever so much as a friend
[13:26] Anne
    and not a bit in the way you mean.
[13:31] Anne
    You know what my ideal is, Diana.
[13:35] Diana
    Tall and slender, with dignified features
    and melancholy, mysterious eyes.
[13:42] Anne
    And a soft, enchanting voice.
[13:46] Anne
    I would marry a man like that
    if one presented himself.
[13:50] Diana
    But people's ideals change sometimes.
[13:52] Anne
    True. Fred Wright doesn't fulfill yours.
[13:58] Anne
    But mine won't.
[14:01] Diana
    What if you never meet a man who meets it?
[14:06] Anne
    Then...
[14:08] Lavendar
    Real life won't let you stay miserable.
[14:12] Anne
    Then I shall die an old maid.
[14:15] Anne
    I daresay it isn't the
    hardest death by any means.
[14:19] Diana
    Never fear, Anne.
    You'll meet the right man for you.
[14:24] Anne
    Wouldn't that be something.
[14:35] Paul
    I can't blow the horn half as
    well as Charlotta the Fourth.
[14:38] Charlotta
    No, sir. You blew very well
    for your first time, sir.
[14:42] Lavendar
    Why, Paul, you've grown.
[14:45] Paul
    I plan to eat heartily and keep
    growing till I'm as tall as Father.
[14:49] Paul
    He is six feet, you know.
[14:52] Lavendar
    Yes, I do know.
[15:02] Anne
    What is the matter, Charlotta?
[15:05] Charlotta
    Miss Lavendar isn't well,
    Miss Shirley, ma'am.
[15:10] Charlotta
    Not since that day you and Paul
    were here together before.
[15:16] Charlotta
    Ever since then I've noticed her
    acting tired and lonesome like.
[15:18] Charlotta
    She never pretends company's coming,
     nor fixes up for it, nor nothing, ma'am.
[15:23] Paul
    Miss Lavendar, why do you
    look at me like that?
[15:27] Lavendar
    Do forgive me.
[15:28] Lavendar
    You do put me in mind of
    somebody I knew long ago.
[15:33] Paul
    When you were young?
[15:37] Lavendar
    Yes, when I was young.
    Do I seem very old to you, Paul?
[15:41] Paul
    Do you know, I can't make
    up my mind about that.
[15:44] Paul
    Your hair looks old.
[15:46] Paul
    But your eyes are as young as my
    beautiful teacher's when you laugh.
[15:52] Paul
    I tell you what, Miss Lavendar,
    I think you would make a splendid mother.
[15:58] Lavendar
    What makes you say that?
[16:03] Paul
    You have just the right look in your eyes!
    The look my little mother always had!
[16:18] Anne
    Do you think I ought never to have
    taken Paul to see Miss Lavendar?
[16:23] Marilla
    It's too late for second thoughts now.
[16:25] Marilla
    And wasn't it Lavendar who told
    you she wanted to meet him?
[16:29] Anne
    Well, yes, she did say that.
[16:32] Anne
    There must be some way to lift
    Miss Lavendar's spirits.
[16:48] Tailor A
    Good day.
[16:54] Lavendar
    What a frivolous person I must be,
    that a new dress should exhilarate me so.
[17:08] Anne
    It isn't like Paul to miss
    school two days running.
[17:16] Anne
    I know he lives around here.
[17:22] Paul
    Oh, Miss Shirley!
[17:25] Anne
    Hello, Paul.
[17:27] Paul
    Teacher, father is here from America.
[17:30] Paul
    Father, this is Miss Shirley, my teacher!
[17:35] Anne
    Here is Paul's father
[17:38] Anne
    and Miss Lavendar's prince.
[17:42] Stephen
    Paul's letters have been so
    full of you, Miss Shirley,
[17:46] Stephen
    that I feel as if I were pretty
    well acquainted with you already.
[17:50] Stephen
    I want to thank you for what
    you have done for Paul.
[17:56] Stephen
    I think that your influence
    has been just what he needed.
[18:03] Stephen
    Paul, would would you ask your
    grandmother to make tea?
[18:09] Paul
    Grandma!
[18:11] Stephen
    In Paul's letters he spoke of going
    with you to visit Echo Lodge.
[18:16] Anne
    Yes, he did.
[18:17] Stephen
    Do you know her well?
[18:20] Anne
    Yes, indeed, she is a *very
    *dear friend of mine.
[18:23] Stephen
    I wonder how much you know.
[18:26] Stephen
    About what passed between us.
[18:30] Anne
    I know all about it.
[18:34] Stephen
    I see.
[18:38] Lavendar
    Stephen Irving is home, isn't he?
[18:41] Anne
    How did you know? Who told you?
[18:43] Lavendar
    Nobody. I knew that must be it,
    just from the way you spoke.
[18:48] Anne
    He wants to come and see you.
    May I send him word that he may?
[18:55] Lavendar
    Yes, of course. There is no
    reason why he shouldn't.
[19:02] Lavendar
    He is only coming as any old friend might.
[19:05] Anne
    Mr. Irving loves Miss Lavendar still.
[19:09] Anne
    I just know he does.
[19:12] Anne
    And Miss Lavendar feels the same.
[19:25] Stephen
    There is nothing changed about this house
    or garden since twenty-five years ago.
[19:37] Charlotta
    Please wait, sir. Miss Lavendar
    will be with you shortly, sir.
[20:05] Lavendar
    Look at me. I'm a white-haired old maid.
[20:14] Charlotta
    Do you think that Mr. Irving
    will marry Miss Lavendar?
[20:19] Anne
    I wonder that myself.
[20:21] Charlotta
    I've been awful worried, thinking what on
    earth she'd do when I get to be sixteen
[20:26] Charlotta
    and have to go away and
    leave her on her own.
[20:30] Anne
    I think we've cause for hope.
[20:33] Charlotta
    If he's going away this early,
[20:38] Charlotta
    there's nothing into it and never will be.
[20:42] Anne
    Look, Charlotta.
[20:47] Charlotta
    Oh, Miss Shirley, ma'am!
[20:50] Charlotta
    He must have proposed to her!
[20:57] Anne
    I'm not a prophetess,
    but I'm going to make a prediction.
[21:03] Anne
    There'll be a wedding in this old stone
    house before the maple leaves are red.
[21:16] Anne
    Do you want that translated
    into prose, Charlotta?
[21:20] Charlotta
    No, I can understand that.
[21:23] Charlotta
    Why, you're crying! What for?
[21:26] Anne
    Oh, I suppose...
[21:28] Anne
    because it's all so beautiful...
    and storybookish... and romantic...
[21:35] Anne
    and sad.
[21:44] Paul
    What a wonderfully nice
    person Miss Lavendar is.
[21:48] Paul
    I think you and she would have
    been friends if you had ever met.
[21:53] Paul
    And you know, Mother,
[21:56] Paul
    I'll always, always love you.

[00:01] Anne
    Life is a series of departures.
[00:10] Thomas
    I'm sorry, Rachel.
[00:12] Thomas
    Sorry I ain't leaving you better off.
[00:16] Lynde
    Don't be silly, Thomas!
    I'm happy enough for anyone!
[00:21] Thomas
    Children, look after your mother.
[00:25] Lynde
    Thomas!
[00:27] Thomas
    You've been a good mother, Rachel,
[00:31] Thomas
    and a better wife than I deserved.
[00:48] Anne
    Come in!
[00:51] Anne
    Did we have a visitor?
    Who would come calling so late?
[00:55] Marilla
    Thomas Lynde is gone.
[00:59] Marilla
    I'm going right down to Rachel.
    You see to things here.
[01:05] Anne
    Yes, all right.
[01:09] Anne
    At the time, I could not even imagine
    that this day marked the start
[01:15] Anne
    of so many departures
    lying in wait for us all.

    If Necessary
[02:56] Anne
    Come in.
[02:59] Marilla
    Can you spare a moment?
[03:00] Anne
    Yes. How is Mrs. Lynde?
[03:04] Marilla
    She's feeling calmer and more composed
    after the funeral, but she's very lonely.
[03:10] Anne
    Yes, I suppose she must be.
[03:13] Anne
    When I've finished these exercises,
    I'll run down and chat awhile with Mrs. Lynde.
[03:16] Marilla
    Good. I think she'd like that.
[03:25] Marilla
    Now tell me, Anne.
[03:27] Anne
    Yes?
[03:28] Marilla
    I suppose Gilbert Blythe is
    going to college in the fall.
[03:32] Anne
    Yes.
[03:33] Marilla
    How would you like to go too, Anne?
[03:37] Anne
    Why ask me now? It's so sudden.
[03:39] Marilla
    I've always felt that you should go.
[03:44] Marilla
    I've never felt easy to think you
    were giving it all up on my account.
[03:50] Anne
    But I've never been sorry for
    a moment that I stayed home.
[03:54] Anne
    I've been so happy.
[03:55] Anne
    Oh, these past two years
    have just been delightful.
[03:59] Marilla
    I know you've been contented enough.
[04:01] Marilla
    But we've saved up some money, and there's
    scholarships and things you might win.
[04:07] Anne
    Yes, but I can't go.
[04:09] Anne
    Your eyes are better, of course;
[04:12] Anne
    but I can't leave you alone with the twins.
     They need so much looking after.
[04:17] Marilla
    That's what I wanted to talk over with you.
[04:20] Marilla
    I'm thinking of asking Rachel
    to come and live with me.
[04:24] Anne
    What, Mrs. Lynde would
    come to live with you here?
[04:28] Marilla
    Only if you like the idea, of course.
[04:31] Marilla
    If she comes, she'll be company for me and
    she'll do for the twins what I can't do,
[04:39] Marilla
    so you can go to college as well as not.
[04:43] Anne
    Marilla...
[04:44] Marilla
    Rachel's the only close
    friend I've got here,
[04:49] Marilla
    and it's breaking her heart
    to think of leaving Avonlea.
[04:53] Marilla
    I think this would be a help to all of us.
[04:57] Marilla
    So, Anne, I want you to have a real
    think about going to college.
[05:07] Anne
    I've put out a lot of little roots these
    two years, both on the island and at school.
[05:14] Anne
    When I'm pulled up,
    they're going to hurt a great deal.
[05:20] Anne
    But perhaps it's best to go.
    Must I get out all my ambitions and dust them?
[05:32] Anthony
    Did you hear?
[05:33] Anthony
    They say Miss Shirley's leaving the school.
[05:36] Paul
    Why?
[05:37] Morley
    She's going off to college.
[05:39] Jacob
    I don't believe it!
[05:41] Cotton 2
    Miss Shirley wouldn't up and leave us!
[05:44] Cotton 1
    That's right! Stop spreading silly rumors!
[05:47] Anthony
    What do you know?!
[05:52] Anne
    Tell me, Matthew,
[05:53] Anne
    what should I do?
[05:56] Anne
    What would you say to me now?
[06:07] Diana
    It will be horribly lonesome
    here next winter.
[06:11] Diana
    The Allans will be gone, too.
[06:14] Anne
    I haven't made up my mind to go yet.
[06:17] Diana
    I'm afraid the Improvement Society will
    go down when you and Gilbert are both gone.
[06:23] Anne
    Not a bit of fear of it,
[06:25] Anne
    especially since the older people are
    becoming so enthusiastic about it.
[06:30] Diana
    I suppose you'll make heaps of lovely
    new friends if you go off to college.
[06:40] Anne
    No matter how many friends
    I make, they'll never be
[06:45] Anne
    as dear to me as the old ones,
[06:49] Anne
    especially a certain girl
    with black eyes and dimples.
[06:54] Diana
    Anne...
[06:56] Anne
    There's nobody like my own Diana.
[07:00] Anne
    Do you remember that evening we first met?
[07:03] Diana
    Of course I do.
[07:04] Anne
    We "swore" eternal friendship
    in your garden.
[07:08] Diana
    Yes, we did.
[07:09] Anne
    We've kept that "oath," I think.
    We've never had a quarrel nor even a coolness.
[07:15] Anne
    I shall never forget the thrill that went
    over me the day you told me you loved me.
[07:23] Anne
    I'm just beginning to realize how
    starved and lonely my heart really was
[07:27] Anne
    all through my childhood.
[07:30] Anne
    I should have been miserable
    if I had never met you.
[07:34] Diana
    And I shall never love anybody...
    any girl... half as well as I love you.
[07:42] Diana
    If I ever do marry and have a little girl
    of my own, I'm going to name her Anne.
[07:48] Anne
    Oh, Diana!
[08:01] Anne
    Well then, I'll be going.
[08:04] Marilla
    You take care now.
[08:06] Dora
    Where are you going, Anne?
[08:09] Anne
    To Echo Lodge.
[08:10] Davy
    Take me with you!
[08:12] Dora
    Me, too!
[08:13] Anne
    I will the next time I drive there.
[08:15] Davy; Dora
    Aww!
[08:16] Anne
    Besides, Paul is going with me,
[08:19] Anne
    and I fear you don't enjoy
    yourself in his company, Davy.
[08:21] Davy
    Oh, I like Paul lots better'n I did.
[08:25] Anne
    Do you really?
[08:26] Davy
    Since I've got pretty good myself,
    I don't mind his being gooder so much.
[08:34] Davy
    If I can keep on, I'll catch up with him
    some day, both in legs and goodness.
[08:40] Marilla
    A boy who makes such a mess of syrup all
    over his face when he is eating his pudding
[08:44] Marilla
    will never catch up with Paul Irving.
[08:47] Davy
    But I'll wash it when I'm done eating.
[08:50] Davy
    And I'll wash behind my ears
    too, without being told.
[08:54] Davy
    I don't forget half as often as I did.
[08:58] Anne
    What about the bottoms of your feet?
[09:01] Davy
    There's so many corners about a fellow
    that it's awful hard to remember them all.
[09:06] Davy
    Well, if I can't go to Miss Lavendar's,
    I'll go over and see Mrs. Harrison.
[09:12] Davy
    Mrs. Harrison's an awful
    nice woman, I tell you.
[09:14] Davy
    And Mr. Harrison's twice as nice
    since he got married over again.
[09:20] Davy
    I guess getting married makes folks nicer.
[09:23] Davy
    Why don't you get married, Marilla?
[09:27] Marilla
    I suppose it's because nobody would have me.
[09:32] Davy
    But maybe you never asked
    anybody to have you.
[09:36] Dora
    Oh, Davy, it's the men that
    have to do the asking.
[09:40] Davy
    But why? Why do they have to do it always?
[09:44] Davy
    I want to know.
[09:53] Paul
    I can't tell you how glad I am that
    Miss Lavendar will be my new mother.
[09:58] Paul
    Mrs. Lynde says she thinks it's likely
    Miss Lavendar will be like other people,
[10:02] Paul
    now that she's going to be married.
[10:04] Diana
    I heard the same thing.
[10:07] Paul
    But I don't want her to be
    like other people, teacher.
[10:12] Anne
    And why is that?
[10:14] Paul
    There are too many other
    people around as it is.
[10:17] Anne
    That's true. I'd like Miss Lavendar
    to remain a free spirit.
[10:22] Paul
    You know, teacher...
[10:24] Anne
    Yes, Paul?
[10:27] Paul
    No, it's nothing at all.
[10:35] Anne
    Good day!
[10:38] Lavendar
    Goodness!
[10:43] Lavendar
    Anne, Diana, thank you so much for coming.
[10:47] Lavendar
    And good day to you, Paul.
[10:49] Paul
    Good day.
[10:50] Paul
    Can we hear the echoes today?
[10:53] Lavendar
    Yes, it's a fine day for echoes.
[10:56] Lavendar
    Hello!
[11:09] Charlotta
    It has all turned out so beautiful!
[11:11] Charlotta
    I'm to go up to Boston and live
    with Mr. Irving and Miss Lavendar.
[11:15] Anne
    Will you really?!
[11:18] Diana
    I'm so happy for you, Charlotta.
[11:21] Charlotta
    Ain't Mr. Irving splendid?
[11:24] Charlotta
    I'm awful thankful they're
    so fond of each other.
[11:28] Paul
    And I'm glad that I'll get
    to live with Charlotta!
[11:32] Charlotta
    Why, Master Paul, sir!
[11:35] Anne
    Oh, it's all so romantic!
[11:38] Anne
    If I hadn't taken the wrong path that day,
[11:42] Anne
    and if I hadn't taken Paul
    to meet Miss Lavendar...
[11:46] Marilla
    So you want all the credit
    for everything coming right?
[11:52] Anne
    No, I was an instrument of predestination!
    Everything is foreordained!
[11:59] Anne
    Yes indeed, it's very romantic.
[12:02] Marilla
    I can't see that it's so
    terribly romantic at all.
[12:07] Marilla
    Now, what are you going to do about college?
[12:13] Anne
    I'll tell you once I've decided.
[12:16] Anne
    Now, they're to be married the last Saturday
    in June, under the honeysuckle trellis...
[12:24] Anne
    the very spot where Mr. Irving proposed
    to her twenty-five years ago!
[12:29] Anne
    That is romantic, even in prose.
[12:32] Marilla
    I still can't see it.
[12:33] Anne
    Well, I can!
[12:44] Anne
    Miss Lavendar decided that she would
    get married and go to the States.
[12:49] Anne
    While, nearer to home...
[12:59] Anne
    Diana and Fred are in love with each other.
[13:08] Anne
    It's as if, somehow, Diana has
    gone forward into a new world.
[13:14] Anne
    Things are changing so fast,
    it almost frightens me.
[13:19] Anne
    And I'm afraid that this can't help
    make some difference between Diana and me.
[13:25] Anne
    It almost feels as though
    she's left me behind.
[13:36] Diana
    Anne! Anne!
[13:38] Diana
    Wake up, Anne!
[13:41] Anne
    Diana?
[13:46] Diana
    Listen, I... I have some news to tell you.
[14:02] Diana
    I'm so happy, but it does seem ridiculous
    to think of me being engaged.
[14:09] Anne
    What is it really like?
[14:11] Diana
    Well, it's perfectly lovely
    to be engaged to Fred...
[14:13] Diana
    but I think it would be simply horrid
    to be engaged to anyone else.
[14:18] Anne
    There's not much comfort
    for the rest of us in that,
[14:22] Anne
    seeing that there is only one Fred.
[14:25] Diana
    Oh, Anne!
[14:27] Diana
    Never mind, you'll understand sometime,
    when your own turn comes.
[14:30] Anne
    Bless you, dearest of Dianas,
     I understand now.
[14:34] Anne
    What else is an imagination for?
[14:37] Diana
    But something frightens me a little as well.
[14:40] Diana
    It will mean going forward, away from you.
[14:44] Anne
    Going forward down the road
    of life is a wonderful thing.
[14:48] Anne
    Pick out your own way and stick to it!
[14:52] Diana
    I'd like to say just the same to you.
[14:59] Diana
    You must be my bridesmaid, you know, Anne.
[15:02] Diana
    Wherever you may be when I'm married.
[15:04] Anne
    I'll come from the ends
    of the earth if necessary.
[15:08] Diana
    I'll hold you to that!
[15:10] Diana
    Of course, it won't be
    for ever so long yet.
[15:12] Diana
    Mother says no daughter of hers shall
    be married before she's twenty-one.
[15:17] Anne
    I think it's perfectly lovely of you to be
    planning already for your home o' dreams.
[15:22] Diana
    I suppose.
[15:24] Anne
    A home o' dreams...
[15:44] Diana
    What's wrong, Anne?!
[15:46] Diana
    Are you hurt?!
[15:47] Anne
    I-It was nothing.
[15:49] Anne
    I only stepped into the wrong house.
[15:51] Diana
    What? You can be so silly.
[15:55] Diana
    I suppose, Anne, you must think it's funny.
[15:58] Diana
    Fred is so different from the kind of
    man I've always said I would marry.
[16:01] Anne
    You did always imagine a man who
    acts a little wicked, didn't you?
[16:06] Diana
    Yes, but I wouldn't want
    to make Fred that way,
[16:11] Diana
    because, don't you see,
    he wouldn't be Fred then.
[16:17] Anne
    Well, I am glad Diana is
    so happy and satisfied.
[16:31] Diana
    It looks ready to pour at any moment.
[16:33] Anne
    I only hope it will wait
    until after the ceremony.
[16:48] Anne
    She does look sweet.
[16:49] Diana
    Lovely.
[16:51] Mr. Allan
    ...for richer, for poorer,
    in sickness and in health,
[16:57] Mr. Allan
    to love and to cherish,
    until death do you part?
[17:01] Lavendar
    I swear.
[17:05] Mr. Allan
    Then, you may kiss the bride.
[17:22] Anne
    What a lovely omen.
[17:24] Gilbert
    As though God were giving them His blessing.
[17:28] Paul
    Yes!
[17:28] Diana
    Oh, I want my wedding to be just like this!
[17:39] Anne
    Congratulations! Really and truly.
[17:42] Lavendar
    Thank you, Anne!
[18:01] Anne
    Wasn't that a lovely wedding?
[18:04] Paul
    I'll go back with them to Boston, once
    they get home from their honeymoon.
[18:10] Anne
    Yes, you will, won't you?
[18:11] Paul
    I can hardly wait to go,
    but I will feel lonely leaving here.
[18:16] Anne
    I know what you mean.
[18:18] Anne
    I think I've come to a
    bend in my road as well.
[18:23] Anne
    But I don't know if I really
    ought to go round it.
[18:31] Paul
    If you have dreams, don't give up on them.
[18:35] Paul
    I'm sure we will all miss you,
    teacher, and cry when you're gone.
[18:41] Paul
    But doesn't crying make you feel better?
[18:44] Anne
    Paul...
[18:45] Paul
    I'll do my level best to
    get on in the States,
[18:48] Paul
    so please, teacher,
    stick to the road you believe in.
[18:53] Paul
    That's what I'd like best!
[18:57] Anne
    Paul!
[19:07] Charlotta
    Thank you for all your help,
     Miss Shirley, ma'am.
[19:11] Anne
    And thank you, Charlotta.
[19:13] Charlotta
    But oh, dear me,
[19:15] Charlotta
    don't it look lonesome?
[19:18] Anne
    It does that.
[19:20] Charlotta
    Now, if you'll excuse me, ma'am.
[19:22] Anne
    Take care.
[19:23] Charlotta
    And you, ma'am.
[19:29] Gilbert
    Have you made up your mind?
[19:34] Anne
    Gilbert.
[19:35] Gilbert
    Do you have a moment?
[19:40] Gilbert
    What are you thinking of, Anne?
[19:42] Anne
    Of so many things.
[19:43] Anne
    Of Miss Lavendar and Mr. Irving, of course.
[19:47] Anne
    Isn't it beautiful to think how
    everything has turned out...
[19:50] Anne
    how they have come together again
[19:54] Anne
    after all the years of separation
    and misunderstanding?
[19:58] Gilbert
    Yes, it's beautiful,
[20:00] Gilbert
    but wouldn't it have been
    more beautiful still, Anne,
[20:05] Gilbert
    if there had been no separation
    or misunderstanding...
[20:09] Gilbert
    if they had come hand in hand all the way
    through life, with no memories behind them
[20:13] Gilbert
    but those which belonged to each other?
[20:32] Anne
    I've decided.
[20:37] Anne
    These past two years,
[20:38] Anne
    I've learned so many things with all of you,
[20:42] Anne
    but you've taught me more
    than I ever taught you.
[20:45] Anne
    You've taught me lessons of
    tenderness and innocent wisdom.
[20:52] Anne
    Please live your lives
    finely and graciously,
[20:56] Anne
    holding fast to truth and
    courtesy and kindness.
[21:00] Anne
    Keep aloof from all that savors of
    falsehood and meanness and vulgarity.
[21:07] Anne
    Every one of you will be
    always in my thoughts.
[21:22] Anne
    It was so very hard to say goodbye.
[21:34] (Flashback) Paul
    I'll never love any teacher
    as much as you, Miss Shirley,
[21:40] (Flashback) Paul
    never, never.
[21:46] Anne
    And now,
[21:48] Anne
    I will close the page on my girlhood and
    begin a new chapter as a grown woman.
[21:58] Anne
    This fall, I set out for Redmond College.

[00:02] Anne
    It has been a summer of
    marvelous developments.
[00:06] Anne
    Miss Lavendar's wedding.
[00:09] Anne
    Diana's engagement.
[00:12] Anne
    And as for myself,
[00:14] Anne
    I will be going to Redmond College.
[00:31] Anne
    It's from Priscilla Grant.
[00:33] Anne
    She is going to Redmond, too.
[00:36] Anne
    We're to board together.
[00:39] Gilbert
    Is that so?
[00:41] Anne
    I can face all the professors in one
    fell phalanx with Priscilla by my side.
[00:47] Gilbert
    I'm glad to hear it.
[00:48] Gilbert
    I think we'll like Kingsport.
[00:52] Gilbert
    It's a nice old burg, they tell me, and
    has the finest natural park in the world.
[00:57] Anne
    I can hardly wait.
[00:59] Gilbert
    Neither can I.
[01:01] Anne
    But will it be more beautiful than this?
[01:06] Anne
    Can it be more beautiful than this?
[01:10] Gilbert
    I wonder.
[01:27] Gilbert
    You are very quiet, Anne.
[01:31] Gilbert
    Anne?
[01:32] Anne
    I'm afraid to speak or move for
    fear all this wonderful beauty
[01:37] Anne
    will vanish just like a broken silence.
[01:46] Gilbert
    Anne...
[01:50] Anne
    I must go home.
[01:56] Anne
    Our friendship will be spoiled if
    he goes on with this nonsense.
[02:03] Davy
    My friend says his mother says you're
    going to college to see if you can catch a man.
[02:11] Davy
    Are you, Anne?
[02:12] Anne
    No, I'm not.
[02:14] Anne
    I'm going to study and grow
    and learn about many things.
[02:18] Davy
    But if you did want to catch a man,
     how would you go about it?
[02:24] Davy
    I want to know.
[02:26] Anne
    It's time you went to bed, Davy-boy.

[04:38] Gilbert
    Isn't it a fine night?
[04:40] Gilbert
    It was nice of them to go through all
    that trouble for us, don't you think?
[04:45] Anne
    Yes, it was.
[04:46] Anne
    What wonderful friends they are.
[04:48] Gilbert
    Anne...
[04:49] Gilbert
    I'm sorry I surprised you last night.
[04:51] Gilbert
    If you don't mind,
    I wanted to talk about our—
[04:54] Anne
    Let's not!
[04:55] Anne
    I don't want to hear that sort of talk now.
[05:06] Ruby
    Gilbert! Won't you walk home with me?
[05:08] Gilbert
    Oh, of course.
[05:11] Gilbert
    I'd be happy to escort you.
[05:13] Ruby
    Oh, good!
[05:15] Charlie
    Shall I see you home, Anne?
[05:19] Charlie
    It's getting late. We'd best get going.
[05:22] Charlie
    Come on!
[05:23] Anne
    R-Right.
[05:27] Charlie
    Wasn't today a jolly good time?
[05:29] Anne
    Yes, I suppose.
[05:31] Charlie
    I hope we'll stay friends
    once you go to Redmond.
[05:34] Anne
    Yes, I suppose.
[05:35] (Flashback) Anne
    I don't want to hear that sort of talk now.
[05:41] Charlie
    What did they give you as a present?
[05:44] Anne
    Yes, I suppose.
[05:47] Marilla
    Yes?
[05:49] Woman A
    Good morning, Marilla.
    I've come to say goodbye to Anne.
[05:53] Woman A
    I cannot for the life of me see what
    a woman needs with so much education.
[06:00] Woman A
    Is it too late to reconsider?
[06:03] Anne
    Well...
[06:07] Woman B
    Hello. Is Anne in?
[06:10] Woman B
    It must cost an awful lot to
    put in four years at Redmond.
[06:14] Woman B
    That can't be easy on Marilla.
[06:18] Anne
    No.
[06:21] Woman C
    Where is Anne?
[06:23] Woman C
    I can't help worrying
[06:25] Woman C
    if you won't come back from Kingsport
[06:28] Woman C
    thinking you know it all and looking down
    on everything and everybody in Avonlea.
[06:34] Woman C
    Don't misunderstand me.
[06:36] Woman C
    It's your own good I'm thinking of.
[06:46] Marilla
    What are you daydreaming for?
[06:48] Marilla
    You leave tomorrow.
    Will your things be packed in time?
[06:52] Anne
    I'm packing them now.
[06:56] Marilla
    Honestly.
[06:58] (Flashback) Woman A
    I cannot for the life of me see what
    a woman needs with so much education.
[07:15] Anne
    They let me see they thought I was crazy
[07:19] Anne
    going to Redmond and trying to take a B.A.,
[07:24] Anne
    and ever since,
     I've been wondering if I am.
[07:30] Gilbert
    You surely don't care for what they said.
[07:32] Gilbert
    You know exactly how narrow
    their outlook on life is,
[07:36] Gilbert
    excellent creatures though they are.
[07:38] Anne
    Oh, I know.
[07:42] Gilbert
    You are the first Avonlea girl
    who has ever gone to college;
[07:46] Gilbert
    and you know that all pioneers
    have their struggles.
[07:53] Gilbert
    Come, forget it all and take a walk with me.
[07:58] Gilbert
    There's something I want to show you.
[08:23] Gilbert
    Ah, here it is!
[08:36] Anne
    An apple tree!
[08:38] Anne
    And away back here!
[08:40] Gilbert
    I was here one day last spring and
    found it, all white with blossom.
[08:45] Gilbert
    So I resolved I'd come again in the
    fall and see if it had been apples.
[08:49] Anne
    I suppose it sprang years ago
    from some chance-sown seed.
[08:54] Anne
    And how it has grown and flourished and
    held its own here all alone among aliens,
[08:58] Anne
    the brave determined thing!
[09:02] Gilbert
    Here's a fallen tree with a cushion of moss.
    It will serve for a woodland throne.
[09:07] Gilbert
    Sit down, Anne.
[09:16] Gilbert
    Delicious!
[09:17] Anne
    The fatal apple of Eden couldn't
    have had a rarer flavor.
[09:25] Gilbert
    That may be the best apple I've ever eaten.
[09:29] Gilbert
    Do you feel better now?
[09:31] Anne
    Yes.
[09:33] Anne
    Those apples have been as
    manna to a hungry soul.
[09:39] Anne
    I feel that I shall love Redmond and
    have a splendid four years there.
[09:47] Gilbert
    And after those four years—what?
[09:52] Anne
    Oh, there's another bend
    in the road at their end.
[09:56] Anne
    I've no idea what may be around it—
    I don't want to have.
[10:02] Anne
    It's nicer not to know.
[10:15] Anne
    If Gilbert were always
    as he has been this evening,
[10:18] Anne
    how nice and simple
    everything would be.
[10:22] Gilbert
    I wonder if I can ever
    make her care for me.
[10:37] Lynde
    Be careful of your health,
    whatever you do.
[10:41] Anne
    Thank you, Mrs. Lynde.
    And the same to you.
[10:45] Marilla
    I suppose we'll hear from you
    once you've got settled?
[10:50] Anne
    I'll write at once.
[10:53] Anne
    Dora.
[10:54] Dora
    When will we see you again, Anne?
[10:57] Anne
    I'll come home for Christmas.
[11:00] Dora
    You must.
[11:01] Anne
    Play nice with Davy.
[11:03] Dora
    I will.
[11:15] Anne
    Let me give you a
    kiss goodbye, Davy-boy.
[11:19] Davy
    Uh-uh.
[11:20] Anne
    Davy...
[12:16] Anne
    So that is Kingsport!
[12:32] Anne
    Well then, we'll all meet
    at Redmond tomorrow.
[12:35] Gilbert
    Take a good night's rest.
[12:37] Charlie
    Good night.
[12:38] Anne
    Good night to you both.
[12:42] Priscilla
    Anne!
[12:47] Anne
    Prissy!
[12:51] Priscilla
    Welcome to Kingsport!
[12:53] Priscilla
    I suppose you must be tired.
[12:55] Anne
    Tired! Priscilla, don't speak of it.
[12:58] Priscilla
    Then I'll show you around
    the boardinghouse.
[13:00] Anne
    Yes.
[13:01] Priscilla
    And introduce you to our landladies.
[13:03] Anne
    Ladies?
[13:04] Hannah
    Please, come in.
[13:07] Ada
    We've been expecting you.
[13:09] Anne
    I can't get away from twins, it seems.
[13:14] Priscilla
    Your room is a front one and looks
    out on Old St. John's graveyard.
[13:19] Anne
    A graveyard?
[13:20] Anne
    That sounds gruesome.
[13:23] Priscilla
    Oh, no, it isn't.
[13:25] Priscilla
    It has "scope for imagination,"
    as you always say.
[13:33] Anne
    I suppose that very moon is looking
    down on Green Gables now.
[13:37] Anne
    But I won't think about it.
    I'm not even going to have my good cry.
[13:42] Anne
    Just now, I'll go calmly and
    sensibly to bed and to sleep.
[13:53] Priscilla
    Everybody is so fast and so lively.
[13:59] Anne
    Oh, Prissy, I feel as insignificant as the
    teeniest drop in a most enormous bucket.
[14:07] Priscilla
    Wait a while.
[14:10] Priscilla
    Then we'll be able to look as bored
    and sophisticated as any of them.
[14:16] Gilbert
    Anne!
[14:17] Priscilla
    Why, Gilbert, it's been ages!
[14:20] Gilbert
    Priscilla! I'm glad we'll
    be classmates again.
[14:22] Priscilla
    Not as glad as I am.
[14:23] Gilbert
    How is your boardinghouse?
[14:25] Anne
    Delightful.
[14:26] Priscilla
    We're on our way to register as students.
[14:29] Priscilla
    But I see you've already done that.
[14:31] Gilbert
    Yes.
[14:32] Priscilla
    In that case—
[14:33] Male Student
    Hey!
[14:34] Male Student
    Gilbert! Over here!
[14:37] Gilbert
    I'll be right there!
[14:38] Gilbert
    I'm going to eat with some
    people in our year I met.
[14:42] Gilbert
    I'll see you later.
[14:44] Priscilla
    I see he's already made friends.
[14:47] Priscilla
    He's like a duck to water.
[14:49] Priscilla
    But how he has grown up this past year.
[14:53] Anne
    What? Has he?
[14:55] Priscilla
    Don't you think he's handsomer than ever?
[15:01] Anne
    Come on, we'd better register!
[15:03] Anne
    Hurry up!
[15:04] Priscilla
    Not so fast!
[15:13] Anne
    A new school, and new people
    in the years above me.
[15:17] Anne
    I'm glad to have Priscilla with me,
[15:20] Anne
    but will we find a place of our own here?
[15:32] Priscilla
    Is she new here, too, do you
    think? She's awfully citified.
[15:37] Anne
    And awfully pretty.
[15:57] Priscilla
    Tell me, do you think
    we'll ever get on in this town?
[16:01] Anne
    I don't know.
[16:03] Anne
    But I'm thankful that none of the Avonlea
    ladies know my state of mind at present.
[16:09] Anne
    They would exult in saying,
    "I told you so."
[16:15] Priscilla
    That sounds more Anneish.
[16:19] Anne
    In a little while, we'll be acclimated
    and acquainted, and all will be well.
[16:25] Priscilla
    I certainly hope so.
[16:28] Anne
    Now, there's a place
    I'd like to go after lunch.
[16:32] Priscilla
    Where?
[16:33] Anne
    A place with "scope for imagination."
[16:39] Anne
    It's everything you said it was.
[16:41] Anne
    There are so many trees here, I can
    imagine I'm in the Avonlea woods.
[16:54] Anne
    "Here lieth the body of
    Albert Crawford, Esq.,"
[16:58] Anne
    "for many years Keeper of His
    Majesty's Ordnance at Kingsport."
[17:03] Anne
    "He was a brave officer,
    the best of husbands,"
[17:05] Anne
    "the best of fathers, the best of friends."
[17:08] Anne
    There's an epitaph for you.
[17:10] Priscilla
    Yes, it is.
[17:12] Anne
    How full such a life must
    have been of adventure!
[17:17] Anne
    What a wonder old graveyards are.
[17:19] Anne
    I shall come here often.
[17:29] Priscilla
    It's the very girl we saw
    at Redmond this morning.
[17:32] Anne
    Yes, it is.
[17:38] Anne
    Good day.
[17:39] Anne
    We wondered if we might—
[17:40] Philippa
    Oh, I want to know who you two girls are!
    I've been dying to know.
[17:44] Philippa
    I saw you at Redmond this morning.
[17:46] Philippa
    Say, wasn't it awful there?
[17:49] Philippa
    For the time, I wished I had
    stayed home and got married!
[17:54] Anne
    Married?
[17:55] Priscilla
    What a way to put it.
[17:57] Philippa
    Come, let's all sit down on this
    gravestone and get acquainted.
[18:03] Philippa
    I know we're going to adore each other.
[18:05] Philippa
    I knew it as soon as I saw
    you at Redmond this morning.
[18:09] Philippa
    I wanted so much to go right
    over and hug you both.
[18:11] Priscilla
    Why didn't you?
[18:14] Philippa
    Because I never can make up my
    mind about anything myself.
[18:17] Philippa
    Philippa Gordon simply—
[18:19] Philippa
    Oh, do call me Phil.
[18:21] Philippa
    Now, what are your handles?
[18:23] Anne
    She's Priscilla Grant.
[18:25] Priscilla
    Call me Prissy.
[18:27] Priscilla
    And she's Anne Shirley.
[18:29] Anne
    And we're from the Island.
[18:32] Philippa
    I hail from Bolingbroke, Nova Scotia.
[18:35] Anne
    Bolingbroke! Why, that is
    where I was born.
[18:38] Philippa
    Why, that makes you a
    Bluenose after all.
[18:42] Anne
    No, it doesn't. I'm Island to the core.
[18:46] Philippa
    Well, I'm glad, anyway.
[18:47] Anne
    No, I'm—
[18:48] Philippa
    It makes us kind of neighbors, doesn't it?
[18:51] Philippa
    Tell me, what do you think of my looks?
[18:54] Anne
    What?
[18:54] Philippa
    I want your honest opinion!
[18:59] Anne
    We thought this morning that you were
    the prettiest girl we saw at Redmond.
[19:06] Philippa
    I thought that myself,
[19:09] Philippa
    but I wanted someone else's
    opinion to bolster mine up.
[19:14] Philippa
    I can't decide even on my own appearance.
[19:19] Priscilla
    I don't know how you managed to make up
     your mind to come to Redmond at all.
[19:23] Philippa
    It was father who wanted me to come here.
[19:24] Philippa
    I knew if I stayed home, I'd have
    to get married. Mother wanted that.
[19:27] Philippa
    And how could I ever have made
    up my mind which man to marry?
[19:34] Anne
    Were there so many?
[19:36] Philippa
    Heaps.
[19:38] Philippa
    The boys like me awfully—they really do.
[19:41] Philippa
    But most were too young and too poor.
[19:45] Philippa
    I must marry a rich man, you know.
[19:48] Anne
    Why must you?
[19:49] Philippa
    I am very extravagant.
[19:51] Philippa
    So that narrowed it down to Alec and Alonzo.
[19:55] Philippa
    The trouble was...
[19:55] Anne
    You couldn't decide between the two of them?
[19:58] Philippa
    That's just it!
[19:59] Anne
    Didn't you—love—either of them?
[20:04] Philippa
    Goodness, no!
[20:05] Philippa
    I couldn't love anybody.
[20:09] Philippa
    Being in love makes you a
    perfect slave, I think.
[20:15] Philippa
    I haven't quite disgusted you
    with my frivolity, have I?
[20:22] Philippa
    Isn't this graveyard a sweet place?
    I'd love to be buried here.
[20:28] Philippa
    Oh, girls, look, see.
[20:31] Philippa
    It's the grave of a middy who was killed
[20:34] Philippa
    in the fight between the
    Shannon and the Chesapeake.
[20:38] Philippa
    You know, the sea battle in 1813.
[20:56] Priscilla
    What is it, Anne?
[20:58] Priscilla
    Anne?
[21:09] Philippa
    Anne Shirley.
[21:15] Philippa
    Come back!
[21:17] Philippa
    Anne Shirley!
[21:20] Philippa
    Are you all right?
[21:21] Philippa
    You were a hundred years
    away from us just now.
[21:30] Priscilla
    Well, what do you think of our new friend?
[21:34] Anne
    That's a good question.
[21:36] Anne
    I like her. There is something
    very lovable about her.
[21:40] Priscilla
    I like her, too. I'll be
    glad to see more of her.
[21:43] Anne
    Yes!
[21:44] Anne
    I believe I've put forth a tiny soul-root
    into Kingsport soil this afternoon.
[21:50] Anne
    I've made a new friend and learned
    something of local history.
[21:55] Anne
    So I'll stop feeling frightened
    that there's no place for me here.
[22:00] Anne
    After all, I came by my own choice.

    I've been at Redmond three weeks now.
[00:04] Philippa
    What a pleasant morning.
[00:05] Philippa
    If feels as though it's blessing our futures.
[00:06] Anne
    Philippa and I became friends
    almost as soon as we'd met.
[00:09] Anne
    Why, I was just thinking
    that exact same thing.
[00:09] Anne
    Despite my misgivings,
    my school life fell into focus.
[00:13] Priscilla
    I'm amazed.
[00:14] Priscilla
    What if you were friends
    before you were born?
[00:16] Philippa
    Perhaps we have been.
[00:17] Male Student A
    Hey, they say that Philippa's
    the daughter of a rich man.
[00:21] Male Student B
    Pretty, smart, and a good family, too?
[00:24] Male Student C
    I'd sure like to get to know her.
[00:32] Anne
    Alec and Alonzo don't seem to
    have any serious rival yet.
[00:38] Priscilla
    What do you mean?
[00:39] Anne
    Phil said she writes them both every
    week about her worshipers here.
[00:45] Philippa
    They must be beside themselves.
[00:48] Philippa
    But, of course, the one
    I like best I can't get.
[00:53] Anne
    Who?!

[00:56] Philippa
    won't take any notice of me, except to look

    Listen here, Phil.
[01:05] Anne
    There's nothing at all

[01:08] Philippa
    I know that, but I still owe you a grudge.
[01:13] Philippa
    I really ought to hate you

    Isn't it heavy?
[03:19] Gilbert
    Not a bit.
[03:21] Anne
    Honestly, that Philippa.
[03:23] Gilbert
    I don't mind. It's good exercise.
[03:25] Anne
    When you think of it like that,
    being a porter doesn't sound so bad.
[03:28] Philippa
    Well, this is where I leave you.
[03:31] Anne
    What? Why?
[03:32] Philippa
    I need to make a stop. Thank you, Gilbert.
[03:36] Gilbert
    You're welcome.
[03:37] Philippa
    Goodbye, Anne. I'll see you tomorrow.
[03:41] Anne
    S-See you.
[03:43] Gilbert
    Isn't she a marvel?
[03:45] Gilbert
    She holds her own in every class she takes.
[03:48] Anne
    Yes. When she finds time
    to study is a mystery.
[03:53] Gilbert
    I hear you're top of your year
    in English literature yourself.
[03:57] Anne
    If I am,
[03:58] Anne
    it must be because I was so desperate
    to compete with someone in Avonlea.
[04:02] Anne
    I hear you have been elected
    president of the freshman class.
[04:05] Gilbert
    Only because everybody put my name forward.
[04:08] Anne
    A position of honor and responsibility.
[04:10] Gilbert
    Anyway, I got asked to join
    a fraternity, the "Lambs,"
[04:15] Gilbert
    only there was a bit of
    an initiation ordeal.
[04:18] Anne
    What kind of "ordeal"?
[04:20] Gilbert
    I had to parade the business streets
    in broad daylight, wearing...
[04:31] Anne
    You should have told me!
    I would have gone to see you.
[04:34] Gilbert
    I had to keep it up all day long!
[04:36] Anne
    And did any gentlemen try to court you?
[04:38] Gilbert
    If only!
[04:44] Anne
    My happiest moments now are those
    in which letters come from home.
[04:49] Anne
    I particularly enjoyed Mrs. Lynde's.
[04:52] Minister
    Why, yesterday I ate so much,
    my belly puffed up big as anything.
[04:52] Lynde
    It makes me mad, such hopeless
    candidates as they have sent us
[04:55] Minister
    But then, it's not the first time
    I ate more than was good for me.
[04:56] Lynde
    to fill the vacancy in the Avonlea church.
[04:58] Minister
    What am I going to do with myself?
[05:00] Lynde
    And such nonsense as they preach!
[05:00] Minister
    And now talking about it
    has me feeling peckish again.
[05:02] Minister
    Can anybody here spare a bite to eat?
[05:03] Lynde
    Worst of all, this one goes on about
    things you'll never find in Holy Writ.
[05:04] Minister
    Only my little joke, of course.
[05:05] Minister
    But really, I am famished.
[05:09] Minister
    Next week, I'll tell you
    about the axe-head that swam.
[05:13] Lynde
    But it seems everybody has
    something to recommend him.
[05:16] Lynde
    One day, that old pig of Mr. Harrison's

    wandered into the church.
[05:26] Lynde
    The poor pig was near scared to death.
[05:33] Lynde
    I've never seen another minister hang on
    to a pig's back as well as that one.
[05:40] Lynde
    I wish you could have seen it!
[05:43] Gilbert
    I hate to laugh, but I can't help it.
[05:46] Anne
    Davy wrote me a charming letter, too.
[05:49] Davy
    Its awful lonesome here without
    you but grate fun in school.
[05:58] Davy
    Jane andrews is crosser than you.
[06:01] Davy
    I showed mrs. lynde a jacky
    lantern I made last nite.
[06:08] Marilla
    Davy Keith, how many
    times must I tell you?!
[06:08] Davy
    Marilla was offel mad about it.
[06:10] Davy
    Why was she mad? It was a good lantern.
[06:11] Marilla
    Are you listening to me?!
[06:12] Marilla
    Go to your room and stay there!
[06:14] Davy
    I herd mrs. lynde asking the minister...
[06:17] Lynde
    Say a prayer for me.
[06:20] Davy
    What did she do that was so bad, anne,
[06:24] Davy
    I want to know.
[06:26] Gilbert
    I'd like to know that myself.
[06:28] Anne
    Marilla's letter gives me
    a whiff of Green Gables.
[06:33] Gilbert
    Yes?
[06:34] Anne
    Diana's is nothing but Fred.
[06:36] Gilbert
    You can't fault her for that.
[06:39] Anne
    And Ruby's...
[06:41] Ruby
    You all seem to be enjoying Redmond,
    judging from Gilbert's letters.
[06:47] (Flashback) Anne
    Gilbert? Gilbert is writing to Ruby?
[06:52] Anne
    Of course I don't mind.
    He has a perfect right to.
[06:57] Gilbert
    Anne?
[07:00] Anne
    O-Oh, Ruby wrote that she
    misses me horribly.
[07:06] Gilbert
    That sounds just like her.
[07:08] Gilbert
    I'm glad to hear they're all well.
[07:11] Anne
    So am I.
[07:12] Anne
    Avonlea is on the other side of this sea.
[07:15] Gilbert
    It is far, but letters keep us tied to it.
[07:20] Anne
    Letters may not be the only thing that
    allows me to feel close to Avonlea.
[07:28] Anne
    But really,
[07:29] Anne
    a pig running off with a
    minister on his back?
[07:37] Anne
    Come in.
[07:39] Priscilla
    Oh, you're just in the nick of time.
[07:41] Anne
    We are going for a walk in the park.
[07:44] Priscilla
    Gilbert and Charlie, too.
[07:46] Priscilla
    How would you like to join us?
[07:48] Philippa
    Two couples and me playing gooseberry?
[07:53] Anne
    Not at all.
[07:55] Philippa
    Very well. That will be a new
    experience for Philippa Gordon.
[07:59] Priscilla
    Is something the matter?
[08:01] Philippa
    I got letters from Alec and Alonzo this
    morning, and they're both furious.
[08:07] Philippa
    It seems I sent a letter to Alec in
    an envelope addressed to Alonzo,
[08:11] Philippa
    and a letter to Alonzo in an
    envelope addressed to Alec.
[08:16] Priscilla
    Goodness!
[08:17] Philippa
    Of course they'll get over it,
    and I don't care if they don't,
[08:23] Philippa
    but I thought I'd come to you
    darlings to get cheered up.
[08:30] Anne
    All the more reason you should join us!
[08:32] Priscilla
    Yes! It will take your mind
    off the whole thing.
[08:35] Philippa
    Yes, I think I will.
[08:38] Philippa
    But Anne, why does your Gilbert go around
    so much with a goose like Charlie?
[08:44] Anne
    Charlie and Gilbert have
    always been friends.
[08:48] Anne
    Don't call him names.
[08:57] Anne
    What a fog we have today.
[08:59] Charlie
    The warm Gulf Stream and the cold Labrador
    Current run into each other near here.
[09:05] Charlie
    Icebergs even float in now and then.
[09:07] Anne
    My!
[09:09] Charlie
    You know the highlands in the
    center of the Peninsula?
[09:10] Philippa
    Aren't they perfect together?
[09:12] Charlie
    The Labrador Current brings cold winds
    that stop trees growing there,
[09:13] Priscilla
    Oh, I know.
[09:14] Philippa
    So what's the problem?
[09:15] Priscilla
    Anne says she's had her heart set
    on someone since she was a girl.
[09:16] Charlie
    so they're covered in meadows.
[09:19] Philippa
    Are they engaged?
[09:21] Priscilla
    It's not quite like that.
[09:23] Priscilla
    She hasn't even found him yet.
[09:26] Philippa
    Oh?
[09:34] Priscilla
    Where is our boardinghouse?
[09:36] Anne
    That's Redmond College, so...
[09:39] Anne
    It must be around there!
[09:41] Gilbert
    I know.
[09:42] Gilbert
    Let's go home around by Spofford Avenue.
[09:45] Gilbert
    We can see all "the handsome houses
    where the wealthy nobles dwell."
[09:49] Charlie
    I'd like that.
[09:50] Philippa
    Then there's a perfectly killing
    little place I want to show you.
[09:54] Philippa
    It wasn't built—it grew!
[10:05] Anne
    How much would one have to work
    to live in houses like these?
[10:09] Anne
    Where is the place you
    wanted to show me, Phil?
[10:13] Philippa
    Just ahead.
[10:17] Priscilla
    Oh, my!
[10:18] Anne
    It's the dearest place I ever saw!
[10:20] Anne
    It's dearer and quainter than even
    Miss Lavendar's stone house.
[10:23] Philippa
    It has a killing name, too,
[10:25] Philippa
    especially on this avenue of
    grand-sounding Cedarcrofts and suchlike.
[10:30] Philippa
    "Patty's Place."
[10:32] Anne
    Patty's Place!
[10:34] Gilbert
    Do you have any idea who lives there?
[10:37] Philippa
    Old Patty Spofford lives
    there with her niece.
[10:41] Gilbert
    "Spofford"?
[10:42] Philippa
    Yes. I've made a thorough study.
[10:45] Philippa
    It was the very first house built
    here a hundred years ago.
[10:49] Charlie
    A hundred years? That can't be right.
[10:51] Philippa
    Well, maybe a little less.
[10:54] Philippa
    Exaggeration is merely a flight
    of poetic fancy, Charlie.
[10:59] Gilbert
    This house is a piece of
    local history, then.
[11:02] Philippa
    Yes. Wealthy folk have tried to
    buy the lot time and again,
[11:05] Philippa
    but "Patty" won't sell
    upon any consideration.
[11:08] Priscilla
    Look, Anne. An apple orchard.
[11:11] Anne
    Goodness!
[11:12] Anne
    A real apple orchard on Spofford Avenue!
[11:16] Anne
    I'm going to dream about
    "Patty's Place" tonight.
[11:19] Anne
    I wonder if, by any chance,
    we'll ever see the inside of it.
[11:22] Priscilla
    It isn't likely.
[11:24] Anne
    No, it isn't likely.
[11:27] Anne
    But I have a queer, creepy, crawly feeling—
    you can call it a presentiment—
[11:31] Anne
    that "Patty's Place" and I are going
    to be better acquainted yet.
[11:44] Priscilla
    We made it through exams somehow.
[11:47] Priscilla
    Tomorrow, the Christmas
    holidays start at last.
[11:50] Anne
    I can't really believe that this time
    tomorrow, I'll be in Green Gables.
[11:56] Priscilla
    None of us have been home in an age.
[11:58] Priscilla
    And you, Phil, will be
    with Alec and Alonzo.
[12:01] Philippa
    Yes. They're longing to see me back again.
[12:05] Philippa
    There's to be no end of dances and
    drives and general jamborees.
[12:13] Philippa
    Anne,
[12:14] Philippa
    I shall never forgive you for not coming
    home with me for the holidays.
[12:19] Anne
    I'd love to go to Bolingbroke some day.
[12:22] Philippa
    Why, then—
[12:23] Anne
    But I can't go this year—I must go home.
[12:26] Anne
    You don't know how
     my heart longs for it, Phil.
[12:32] Philippa
    All the old gossips will talk you over
    to your face and behind your back.
[12:38] Philippa
    You'll die of lonesomeness, child.
[12:40] Anne
    In Avonlea?
[12:43] Philippa
    If you're going to be with
    Gilbert, I could understand it.
[12:45] Anne
    I'm sorry to say I've no plans
    to spend Christmas with him.
[12:50] Philippa
    Then do come with me.
[12:53] Philippa
    Bolingbroke would go wild over you—
    your hair and your style and, oh, everything!
[13:01] Anne
    Your picture of social triumphs
    is quite fascinating, Phil.
[13:06] Philippa
    Isn't it just?
[13:07] Anne
    But I'll paint one to offset it.
[13:11] Anne
    I'm going home to an old country farmhouse,
[13:16] Anne
    once green, rather faded now.
[13:21] Anne
    There is a brook below and a pond nearby
    that will be gray and brooding now.
[13:29] Anne
    There will be two oldish
    ladies in the house;
[13:32] Anne
    and there will be two twins, one a perfect
    model, the other a "holy terror."
[13:39] Anne
    There will be a little room upstairs over
    the porch, where old dreams hang thick.
[13:46] Anne
    How do you like my picture, Phil?
[13:49] Philippa
    It seems a very dull one.
[13:53] Anne
    Oh, but I've left out the
    transforming thing.
[13:59] Anne
    The power that transforms everything.
[14:05] Anne
    A power called "love."
[14:12] Philippa
    Oh, Anne, I wish I was like you!
[14:30] Dora
    What are you doing, Davy?
[14:33] Davy; Dora
    Anne!
[14:35] Anne
    Davy! Dora!
[14:39] Davy
    It's good to see you again, Anne!
[14:41] Dora
    Welcome home.
[14:42] Davy
    Look. Isn't that a bully bonfire?
[14:46] Davy
    I did it for you, Anne, 'cause
    I was so glad you were coming home.
[14:49] Marilla
    Welcome home, Anne.
[14:51] Anne
    What did you ask the minister for?
[14:55] Davy
    I put it in my letter.
[14:57] Lynde
    Davy! Have you been spying?
[15:07] Lynde
    Has Diana gone home?
[15:10] Anne
    Yes.
[15:10] Marilla
    I suppose you girls talked all night
    and got hardly a wink of sleep.
[15:15] Anne
    Yes.
[15:16] Anne
    We had so much to tell each other,
[15:19] Anne
    just like we did when we first met.
[15:21] Anne
    And Jane is going to stay the night.
[15:25] Anne
    I've had a letter from her.
[15:27] Anne
    She says she wants my opinion on something.
[15:30] Marilla
    Oh, honestly.
[15:32] Lynde
    Where's the harm?
[15:34] Lynde
    They won't be so free to
    come and go much longer.
[15:37] Lynde
    Even Ruby Gillis has gotten
    engaged, they say.
[15:40] Anne
    Has she really?
[15:42] Lynde
    What, haven't you heard?
[15:44] Lynde
    Rumor has it the man is the
    Spencervale schoolteacher.
[15:48] Anne
    I see.
[15:49] Lynde
    Isn't that nice?
[15:49] Anne
    Diana didn't say a thing.
[15:52] Anne
    Maybe Jane is engaged, too.
    Is that what she's coming to talk about?
[15:57] Anne
    If so, I'll soon be the only fancy-free
    maiden of our old quartet.
[16:04] Anne
    Just the sort of night people like to
    cuddle down between their blankets
[16:09] Anne
    and count their mercies!
[16:11] Jane
    Anne.
[16:14] Jane
    I want to tell you something. May I?
[16:17] Anne
    Really, Jane. You could at
    least
try to look happy.
[16:22] Anne
    Of course.
[16:23] Jane
    What do you think of my brother?
[16:28] Anne
    Come again?
[16:30] Jane
    What do you think of Billy?
[16:33] Anne
    What do you mean, exactly?
[16:40] Jane
    Do you like Billy?
[16:42] Anne
    Why—why—yes, I like him, of course.
[16:45] Jane
    Would you like him for a husband?
[16:49] Anne
    Whose husband?
[16:50] Jane
    Yours, of course!
[16:53] Anne
    What?!
[16:55] Jane
    Billy wants to marry you!
[16:57] Jane
    He's always been crazy about you!
[17:01] Jane
    But he's so shy he couldn't ask
    you himself if you'd have him,
[17:06] Jane
    so he got me to do it. I'd rather not have.
[17:10] Anne
    I... I'm sorry, Jane.
    I couldn't marry Billy!
[17:15] Anne
    Why, such an idea never
    occurred to me—never!
[17:20] Jane
    I don't suppose it did.
[17:22] Jane
    But Billy is a good fellow.
[17:24] Jane
    He's a great worker, he's gentle,
    and he'd be very good to you.
[17:30] Anne
    Jane!
[17:31] Anne
    I appreciate the thought, Jane, but I don't
    care anything for Billy in that way.
[17:38] Jane
    Well, I didn't suppose you would.
[17:41] Jane
    I told Billy I didn't believe it was a
    bit of use to ask you, but he insisted.
[18:02] Anne
    I hope Billy won't feel very badly over it.
[18:06] Jane
    Oh, he won't break his heart.
[18:08] Jane
    He likes Nettie Blewett pretty well, too,
[18:13] Jane
    and mother would rather he
    married her than anyone.
[18:18] Jane
    She's such a good cook, and her
    people are so respectable.
[18:23] Anne
    Yes. I hope it all works out for them.
[18:27] Jane
    Please don't mention what
    I said last night.
[18:30] Anne
    I won't.
[18:33] Anne
    Was there ever anything so ridiculous?
[18:36] Anne
    How was that for the first
    proposal I ever received?
[18:41] Anne
    I thought it would happen someday,
    but I never dreamed it would be secondhand.
[18:47] Anne
    My...
[18:49] Anne
    My ideal is
[18:50] Anne
    dark-eyed and distinguished-looking,
    and he would...
[18:56] Ideal Man
    I swear to defend you for
    so long as I shall live.
[18:59] Ideal Man
    Please, permit me to make your kindness,
    wit, and beauty mine alone!
[19:06] Anne
    I will!
[19:08] Anne
    Or else...
[19:09] Ideal Man
    I cannot conceive of life without you.
[19:12] Ideal Man
    I promise to make you happy.
[19:15] Ideal Man
    Won't you live your life with me?
[19:17] Anne
    Forgive me!
[19:21] Ideal Man
    Then at least give me leave to
    go on adoring you from afar.
[19:27] Anne
    Of course.
[19:36] Anne
    I suppose there's no getting round it.
[19:40] Anne
    Life is one long series
    of bends in the road.
[19:44] Anne
    Little dreams break,
[19:48] Anne
    and people change.
[19:50] Anne
    Even Jane and Ruby and Diana.
[19:54] Gilbert
    Hey!
[20:01] Anne
    What are you doing out so early?
[20:06] Gilbert
    The snow looked so lovely,
    I thought I'd ask you to walk with me.
[20:10] Gilbert
    And you?
[20:12] Anne
    Oh, nothing really.
[20:14] Anne
    But this snowy landscape is breathtaking.
[20:17] Gilbert
    Yes.
[20:18] Anne
    I think, if ever any great
    sorrow came to me,
[20:22] Anne
    I would think of this sight for comfort.
[20:26] Gilbert
    I hope no great sorrow
    ever will come to you.
[20:31] Anne
    But there must—sometime.
[20:35] Anne
    There have, and there will.
[20:37] Anne
    I know. Won't you come by the house?
[20:40] Anne
    You haven't seen Marilla or
    Mrs. Lynde in ages, have you?
[20:43] Gilbert
    No, I haven't.
[20:45] Anne
    Davy and Dora will be delighted.
[20:49] Gilbert
    Anne!
[20:50] Gilbert
    Wait!
[20:52] Gilbert
    Your bootlace.
[20:55] Anne
    So I've avoided one small sorrow.
[21:00] Anne
    Thank you.
[21:01] Gilbert
    If I had my way...
[21:04] Gilbert
    I'd shut everything out of your
    life but happiness and pleasure.
[21:16] Anne
    Gilbert.
[21:18] Anne
    You would be very unwise.
[21:24] Anne
    No life can be properly developed and
    rounded out without some trial and sorrow—
[21:30] Anne
    though I suppose it is only when we are
    pretty comfortable that we admit it.
[21:42] Anne
    Come! What are we waiting for?
[21:56] Charlie
    I can't go on deceiving myself!
[21:59] Charlie
    Wait for me,
[22:00] Charlie
    Anne Shirley!

[00:01] Anne
    To borrow Philippa's phrase,
    the second term at Redmond...
[00:04] Philippa
    actually whizzed away
[00:05] Anne
    ...in no time at all.
[00:09] Anne
    I have turned nineteen,
[00:11] Anne
    and I am studying furiously
    for a tricky exam.
[00:15] Anne
    My boardinghouse is generally pleasant,
[00:18] Anne
    but on days when I come home late...
[00:25] Anne
    I sometimes fear that the many cushions
[00:27] Anne
    the landladies make will
    be the death of me.
[00:30] Anne
    I've been getting on fine
    with Gilbert as well.
[00:33] Gilbert
    What do you think of your chances?
[00:34] Anne
    I'm determined to win it come what may.
[00:37] Anne
    With the Thornburn Scholarship,
[00:40] Anne
    I could come back to Redmond next year
    without trenching on Marilla's savings.
[00:45] Gilbert
    Then I had better get to work myself.
[00:48] Anne
    Yes, you should!
[00:49] Male Student A
    That Gilbert never leaves Anne alone.
[00:52] Male Student B
    I'm green with envy.
[00:54] Male Student C
    It does make it hard to
    talk to her at school.
[00:57] Male Student B
    I hear that Anne lives in a
    boardinghouse on Old St. John's.
[01:02] Gilbert
    Well, I have a Lambs get-together to go to.
[01:05] Anne
    Of course. Enjoy your women's clothing.
[01:07] Gilbert
    Not that kind of get-together.
[01:10] Anne
    Nobody could be so satisfactory
    a friend as Gilbert.
[01:14] Anne
    He has evidently dropped all his
    nonsensical ideas about me.
[01:21] Male Student
    Gilbert!
[01:23] Gilbert
    Coming!
[01:27] Anne
    After all, I have...
[01:39] Anne
    In truth, I am but a humble student.
[01:42] Anne
    But I'll keep striving, dreaming
    of what may be someday.
SIGN    Chapter 18
SIGN    I Feel as if I Had Opened a Book
    and Found Roses of Yesterday,
    Sweet and Beloved, Between Its Leaves
[03:30] Upperclassman A
    I staunchly oppose the tuition increase!
[03:32] Underclassman A
    So do I! It's unconscionable!
[03:34] Underclassman B
    We should call an emergency meeting.
[03:35] Underclassman B
    We'll show them that the whole
    student body stands against it.
[03:38] Upperclassman A
    Let's start planning now.
[03:46] Anne
    I have other plans today.
[03:47] Male Student A
    Don't be like that.
[03:49] Male Student A
    Surely you can spare a few moments?
[03:51] Male Student C
    Look. The weather is fine.
[03:53] Charlie
    Hello!
[03:55] Charlie
    Thank you for waiting.
[03:57] Anne
    Huh?
[03:59] Anne
    Charlie?
[04:08] Anne
    Thank you, Charlie.
[04:10] Charlie
    Don't mention it.
[04:11] Charlie
    It must be awful to be
    pestered so incessantly.
[04:14] Anne
    Well, it isn't pleasant.
[04:16] Charlie
    I should thank you for joining me on
    a walk when you have so much to do.
[04:21] Anne
    I was just longing for a break.
[04:23] Charlie
    Isn't this a lovely view?
[04:26] Anne
    Yes.
[04:27] Charlie
    And you're lovely, too, Anne.
[04:31] Charlie
    Anne...
[04:33] Charlie
    Would you promise to become
    Mrs. Charlie Sloane some day?
[04:37] Anne
    Huh?
[04:38] Charlie
    In other words, I'd like you to marry me.
[04:41] Anne
    Excuse me?!
[04:41] Charlie
    I suppose that was awfully affected
    for a proposal, wasn't it?
[04:45] Anne
    But, Charlie, haven't we been
    friends since we were children?
[04:50] Charlie
    I cannot falsify my feelings any longer!
[04:53] Charlie
    Anne, marry me!
[04:55] Anne
    No, thank you.
[04:56] Charlie
    What? Why not?!
[04:58] Anne
    For any number of reasons.
[05:00] Charlie
    What about me displeases you?!
[05:02] Charlie
    Name it, and I'll mend my ways!
[05:04] Anne
    It isn't that sort of problem.
[05:06] Anne
    I've never thought of marrying you,
    and I don't believe I ever could.
[05:12] Charlie
    You would be a Sloane!
[05:14] Charlie
    That's a great honor!
[05:16] Anne
    One I simply cannot accept!
[05:18] Charlie
    Are you rejecting my proposal?
[05:22] Charlie
    You, an orphan?!
[05:35] Anne
    Why do these things keep happening to me?
[05:39] (Flashback) Anne
    I'm leaving!
[05:42] (Flashback) Charlie
    I'll tell my mama!
[05:46] (Flashback) Charlie
    And my papa, too!
[05:47] (Flashback) Anne
    What on earth for?!
[05:49] (Flashback) Anne
    You're stubborn as a mule!
[06:03] Priscilla
    Anne, a letter!
[06:05] Priscilla
    Are you well?
[06:07] Anne
    I wonder that myself.
[06:09] Priscilla
    It's from Stella.
[06:10] Anne
    Stella? I haven't seen her since
    our graduation from Queen's.
[06:14] Priscilla
    Neither have I, although we've been
    keeping each other up to date.
[06:19] Priscilla
    I believe she's been teaching
    at a backcountry school.
[06:22] Priscilla
    She said that the parents gave her
    more trouble than the pupils.
[06:26] Anne
    Now she says that she's quit that school
    and she's coming to Redmond next year!
[06:31] Anne
    What do you think of her idea?
[06:33] Anne
    I think it's a perfectly splendid one,
    if we can only carry it out.
[06:36] Anne
    Do you suppose we can, Pris?!
[06:39] Priscilla
    I'll be better able to tell you
    when I find out what it is.
[06:43] Stella
    Now, why can't you and Priscilla
    and I club together,
[06:47] Stella
    rent a little house somewhere in
    Kingsport, and board ourselves?
[06:50] Stella
    It would be cheaper than any other way.
[06:53] Stella
    Of course, we would have
    to have a housekeeper,
[06:58] Stella
    but my grandmother is left alone in a great
    big house, and she is horribly lonesome.
[07:03] Stella
    She will come to Kingsport and
    keep house for us if we want her.
[07:06] Priscilla
    "Now, if you agree to it, would you see
    if you can find a suitable house?!"
[07:11] Anne
    Yes!
[07:14] Anne
    The question is whether we can
    find a really suitable place.
[07:19] Anne
    This one is too big, and the rent is high.
[07:22] Priscilla
    It's too small, although
    the rent isn't much.
[07:25] Anne
    It would be hard to get
    to Redmond from here.
[07:28] Priscilla
    Indeed it would.
[07:30] Anne
    This one looks haunted.
[07:33] Anne; Priscilla
    This one is just out of the question!
[07:37] Priscilla
    We shall have to give up and
    wait till the fall, I suppose.
[07:40] Priscilla
    If we still find nothing then,
    boardinghouses we shall have always with us.
[07:45] Anne
    I'm not going to worry about it just now,
    anyway, and spoil this lovely afternoon.
[07:50] Priscilla
    But look over there at Kingsport.
[07:54] Priscilla
    Houses, houses everywhere,
    and not one for us.
[08:03] Anne
    I feel as if something mysterious
    were going to happen right away.
[08:07] Priscilla
    Oh! Wait for me!
[08:16] Priscilla
    This is Spofford Avenue.
[08:18] Priscilla
    We'll never find a house we can
    afford in such a wealthy—
[08:26] Anne
    Prissy,
[08:30] Anne
    do you suppose it's possible that
    we could rent Patty's Place?
[08:34] Priscilla
    No. Face reality, Anne.
[08:37] Priscilla
    They're sure to want more
    for it than you imagine.
[08:39] Priscilla
    I won't hope. The disappointment
    would be too awful to bear.
[08:44] Priscilla
    Remember, it's on Spofford Avenue!
[08:49] Handmaiden
    Visitors, ma'am.
[09:03] Priscilla
    They look so alike.
[09:05] Anne
    Yes. It's a good omen.
[09:07] Anne
    We—We—saw by your sign
    that this house is to let.
[09:15] Patty
    Oh, yes. I intended to take
    that sign down today.
[09:22] Anne
    Then—Then we are too late.
[09:25] Patty
    No, but we have decided
    not to let the house.
[09:28] Anne
    Oh, I'm so sorry!
[09:31] Anne
    We love this place so!
[09:35] Patty
    You love it?
[09:37] Patty
    We didn't treat the word love
    so carelessly in my young day.
[09:43] Patty
    The girls nowadays indulge in
    such exaggerated statements
[09:48] Patty
    that one never can tell what they do mean.
[09:51] Patty
    Does that mean that you really love it?
    Or that you merely like the looks of it?
[09:57] Anne
    No,
[09:59] Anne
    I really do love it.
[10:01] Anne
    I've loved it ever since
    I saw it last fall.
[10:04] Anne
    My college chums and I are looking for a
    little place to rent instead of boarding;
[10:09] Anne
    and when I saw that this house
    was to let I was so happy.
[10:14] Anne
    I love the name, too. "Patty's Place."
[10:18] Anne
    The name on the gate,
    the way it's hung, everything.
[10:22] Patty
    We decided that we would
    not let it after all,
[10:25] Patty
    because all the people who came to rent
    it asked to take the name off the gate.
[10:32] Patty
    If you love this house, you can have it.
[10:36] Patty
    I believe you do love it
    and will be good to it.
[10:41] Anne
    Oh, but there is one problem.
[10:44] Anne
    Can we even afford what you ask for it?
[10:48] Patty
    How does this sound to you?
[10:53] Anne
    I'm afraid we can't afford quite so much.
[10:55] Anne
    You see, we are only
    college girls and we are poor.
[10:58] Patty
    What were you thinking you could afford?
[11:01] Anne
    About... half this amount.
[11:05] Patty
    That will do.
[11:08] Anne
    Do you mean it?
[11:09] Patty
    Yes. It is not strictly necessary
    that we should let it at all.
[11:13] Anne
    Thank you very much.
[11:15] Anne
    By the way, will you leave the china dogs?
[11:19] Patty
    Would you like me to?
[11:21] Anne
    Oh, indeed, yes. They are delightful.
[11:26] Patty
    Their names are Gog and Magog.
[11:29] Patty
    My brother Aaron brought them from London.
[11:33] Anne
    Your brother did?
[11:34] Patty
    He thought a great deal of those dogs.
[11:37] Patty
    It was Aaron who named this
    house Patty's Place,
[11:40] Patty
    and Spofford Avenue was called after him.
[11:46] Anne
    Oh, is that how it happened?
[11:48] Patty
    You know a good thing when you see it.
[11:54] Priscilla
    It's all so delicious
[11:57] Priscilla
    that I know we are going to wake up
    and find it a fleeting vision of the night.
[12:02] Anne
    Patty's Place is quite real,
    and we are going to live there.
[12:08] Anne
    I feel like one of the morning
    stars that sang for joy.
[12:15] Philippa
    Girls—Girls—let me come, too.
     Oh, I'll be so good.
[12:19] Philippa
    I won't stir off my marrow bones till you
    tell me I can live with you next winter.
[12:24] Anne
    Phil, we're poor.
    Our housekeeping will be simple.
[12:27] Priscilla
    And our table plain.
[12:29] Philippa
    Oh, what do I care for that?
[12:31] Anne
    And then there will be a good
    deal of work to be done.
[12:34] Anne
    And you...
[12:36] Philippa
    Toil not, neither do I spin.
[12:39] Philippa
    But I'll learn to do things.
[12:42] Philippa
    You'll only have to show me once.
[12:45] Philippa
    If you won't let me cast in my lot with you,
     I'll die of the disappointment,
[12:50] Philippa
    and then I'll come back and haunt you!
[12:51] Philippa
    I'll camp on the very
    doorstep of Patty's Place
[12:54] Philippa
    and you won't be able to go out or come
    in without falling over my spook!
[13:05] Priscilla
    We can't promise until
    we've consulted Stella.
[13:08] Anne
    I don't think she'll object.
[13:10] Anne
    Phil is a dear...
[13:12] Anne
    even if she is a little thoughtless.
[13:15] Priscilla
    She is that.
[13:16] Anne
    I believe we will all get on
    beautifully in Patty's Place.
[13:30] Anne
    Over the summer holidays after
    my first year at Redmond,
[13:33] Anne
    I decided to visit Bolingbroke
    before going on to Avonlea.
[13:37] Anne
    Philippa's family and the house
    where I was born are both here.
[13:42] Philippa
    There's my old home.
    Mount Holly, it's called.
[13:47] Anne
    It's wonderful.
[13:48] Philippa
    I've asked my family to
    find out about yours.
[13:51] Anne
    Thank you.
[13:53] Philippa
    Is something the matter?
[13:55] Anne
    My ideals have been in perilous condition
    lately. On the verge of collapse.
[14:01] Anne
    What if the house we're about to
    visit isn't the house I know?
[14:05] Philippa
    You remember it?
    I thought you were a wee little baby.
[14:10] Anne
    I imagined it. All of it.
[14:12] Anne
    It must be a little yellow house
    with honeysuckle over the windows
[14:17] Anne
    and lilac and lily-of-the-valley
    in the garden
[14:21] Anne
    and muslin curtains on all the windows.
[14:25] Philippa
    You have a genius for making
    life more difficult.
[14:34] Alec
    Anne Shirley?
[14:36] Anne
    Yes.
[14:37] Alec
    I thought so. You're as lovely
    as Phil said in her letters.
[14:41] Alonzo
    Or even lovelier.
[14:43] Anne
    Thank you.
[14:44] Anne
    Shall I guess your names, too?
[14:46] Anne
    You're Alec with the beautiful hair.
[14:49] Anne
    And you must be Alonzo,
    possessor of a handsome nose.
[14:53] Alonzo
    Welcome to Bolingbroke.
[14:55] Alonzo
    We're happy to have you, Anne.
[14:57] Alec
    Now, where is our fair lady?
[15:00] Anne
    With her parents.
[15:01] Philippa
    My!
[15:03] Philippa
    I see you've already made friends.
[15:05] Alec
    Welcome home, Phil.
[15:07] Alonzo
    Welcome... home.
[15:08] Philippa
    Tell me, Anne, which of them
    do you think I should marry?
[15:14] Philippa
    Well?!
[15:15] Anne
    I think they are both fine fellows,
[15:18] Anne
    but you must decide that
    for yourself, Phil.
[15:21] Philippa
    I guess I should.
[15:23] Philippa
    Oh, and the house is here.
[15:26] Anne
    Thank you. Oh, it won't be long now.
[15:30] Anne
    I'm glad, of course.
[15:32] Anne
    It will be a pleasure.
[15:34] Philippa
    I could go with you, if you like.
[15:37] Anne
    Would you?
[15:38] Philippa
    I want to see if your
    ideal survives intact.
[15:42] Anne
    Please do come!
[15:44] Anne
    Even my wildest flights of fancy
    seem possible when you're with me.
[15:51] Philippa
    Then we'll have a real jamboree
    tonight to set the tone!
[15:58] Alonzo
    You're gorgeous, Phil!
[16:03] Philippa
    Oh, this is so much fun!
[16:05] Philippa
    See?!
[16:06] Philippa
    Anne,
[16:07] Philippa
    may you discover beautiful
    memories tomorrow,
[16:16] Philippa
    even if
[16:18] Philippa
    they aren't exactly
[16:23] Philippa
    what you anticipated.
[16:30] Philippa
    It's just around this next bend.
[16:36] Philippa
    I don't see why you should rush yourself.
[16:38] Philippa
    We have plenty more time.
    You don't have to go today.
[16:45] Philippa
    It's my fault.
[16:47] Philippa
    Because I invited her to Bolingbroke,
[16:51] Philippa
    invited her knowing she'd be disappointed.
[17:05] Philippa
    Would you look at that!
[17:08] Philippa
    Your ideal is alive and well.
[17:17] Philippa
    A lilac tree by the gate.
[17:20] Philippa
    Lily-of-the-valley in the garden.
[17:23] Philippa
    There is no honeysuckle over the windows,
    but there are muslin curtains in them.
[17:28] Philippa
    It's all just as you imagined it!
[17:31] Philippa
    Are you a prophetess, by any chance?
[17:35] Anne
    I'm sorry. I know this is sudden,
[17:37] Anne
    but did a family called Shirley ever live here?
     It would have been a long time ago.
[17:43] Woman
    Yes, the Shirleys lived
    here twenty years ago.
[17:50] Woman
    They had it rented. I remember 'em.
[17:54] Woman
    They both died of fever at once.
[17:57] Woman
    It was turrible sad. They left a baby.
[18:02] Woman
    Distant relatives took it,
    but I guess it's dead long ago.
[18:07] Woman
    It was a sickly thing.
[18:11] Anne
    It didn't die.
[18:14] Anne
    I was that baby.
[18:17] Woman
    You don't say so!
[18:18] Anne
    My name is Anne Shirley.
[18:20] Woman
    Why, you have grown!
[18:24] Woman
    Will you come in? That's what
    you came for, I expect.
[18:28] Woman
    Look all over the house, if you like.
[18:33] Anne
    Thank you very much.
[18:36] Woman
    The east room upstairs was
    the one you were born in.
[18:41] Woman
    The furniture was all sold before we came.
[18:47] Woman
    All that's here now, we brought in later.
[18:53] Anne
    What a small room,
[18:56] Anne
    smaller than my room at Green Gables.
[19:01] Anne
    My mother took in this view.
[19:07] Anne
    The sunlight from this window
[19:10] Anne
    might have shone on her
    and me when I was born.
[19:17] Anne
    My mother gave birth to me in this room
[19:21] Anne
    and died soon after.
[19:24] Anne
    Just to think of it—she
    was younger than I am now.
[19:30] Woman
    Here's a bundle of old letters
    I found in that closet upstairs.
[19:35] Woman
    See, this one's addressed
    to "Miss Bertha Willis."
[19:40] Anne
    Willis was my mother's maiden name!
[19:43] Anne
    Oh, thank you!
[19:45] Anne
    I haven't one thing that
    belonged to my mother.
[19:49] Anne
    I can never thank you enough.
[19:51] Woman
    You're quite welcome.
[19:53] Woman
    Laws, but your eyes is like your ma's.
[19:57] Woman
    And you're complected like your pa.
[19:59] Woman
    There never was two people more in love.
[20:02] Woman
    Pore creetures, they didn't live long.
[20:06] Woman
    But they was awful happy
    while they was alive,
[20:09] Woman
    and I s'pose that counts for a good deal.
[20:16] Philippa
    Maybe I should take up looking in closets.
[20:21] Anne
    There are a dozen letters in all.
[20:25] Anne
    From during their engagement.
[20:28] Anne
    Some are written by my father,
    some by my mother.
[20:35] Anne
    "Bertha Shirley."
[20:38] Anne
    Mother sent this one after she married.
[20:54] Bertha
    Anne is a bright baby.
[20:57] Bertha
    She's lively, kind, and warm,
    and has a thousand sweetnesses.
[21:02] Bertha
    I love her best when she is asleep
[21:09] Bertha
    and better still when she is awake.
[21:21] Anne
    Thank you, Phil.
[21:23] Anne
    This has been the most
    beautiful day of my life.
[21:28] Anne
    I've found my father and mother.
[21:31] Philippa
    And you pictured their house perfectly.
[21:34] Anne
    I'm sure Mrs. Thomas must have told me,
    and I only thought I'd imagined it.
[21:41] Anne
    But I'm not an orphan any longer.
[21:45] Philippa
    No, you're not.
[21:48] Anne
    I feel as if I had opened a book
[21:52] Anne
    and found roses of yesterday,
    sweet and beloved, between its leaves.

[00:01] Anne
    The summer of my first year at Redmond,
[00:03] Anne
    after receiving letters that my
    parents wrote in days gone by,
[00:06] Anne
    I returned to Avonlea with a full heart.
[00:10] Anne
    I have been wondering if I could write a
    short story good enough to be published.
[00:15] Diana
    Why, of course you could!
[00:16] Diana
    You used to write perfectly thrilling
    stories years ago in our old Story Club.
[00:21] Anne
    One of the junior girls at Redmond
    wrote a story last winter,
[00:24] Anne
    and it was published in the Canadian Woman.
[00:27] Anne
    I really do think I could
    write one at least as good.
[00:31] Diana
    I'm subscribed to that magazine!
[00:33] Anne
    I might try one of the
    bigger magazines first.
[00:37] Anne
    It all depends on what
    kind of a story I write.
[00:42] Anne
    Say, where is old Mr. Sloane?
[00:45] Anne
    I can't seem to spot Mr. Cotton, either.
[00:48] Marilla
    Well, as to that...
[00:50] Anne
    You don't mean... they've passed on?
[00:53] Lynde
    Old Sloane had his whiskers
    trimmed neat as anything.
[00:57] Lynde
    I thought at first it was
    somebody else in his casket.
[01:00] Davy
    Say, why do grown-ups get to talk
    when it's wrong for children to do it?
[01:04] Davy
    I want to know.
[01:06] Anne
    Well, I don't suppose age
    has anything to do with it.
[01:10] Dora
    Oh, here comes the bride.
[01:14] Anne
    Billy Andrews,
[01:16] Anne
    the coward who got his
    sister to propose for him.
[01:19] Anne
    I'm glad to see he's made a good match.
[01:23] Davy
    Anne, there's the minister who rode the pig!
[01:33] Anne
    Is that...
[01:37] Anne
    Ruby?
[01:44] Anne
    Has Ruby injured herself?
[01:46] Marilla
    She won't live to see fall.
[01:49] Marilla
    Everybody knows it except
    herself and her family.
[01:53] Marilla
    And her so young.
[01:55] Marilla
    She's been telling Diana how she'd like
    to talk with you when you got back.
[02:02] Anne
    I couldn't believe it.
[02:04] Anne
    Brilliant, merry Ruby!
[02:06] Anne
    How could the flame of her life
    be guttering out?
SIGN    Chapter 19
SIGN    I'll Walk the Road
    to Heaven
    From Here
[03:47] Ruby
    I've been dying to see you, Anne.
[03:49] Anne
    Yes, Ruby, so have I.
[03:51] Ruby
    We're having a little get-together
    here tomorrow.
[03:54] Ruby
    I do so want you to come, Anne.
[03:56] Ruby
    You must tell me about Redmond.
[03:58] Anne
    Of course. I'll be certain to come.
[04:02] Ruby
    You must come!
[04:03] Anne
    I will.
[04:05] Diana
    Ruby's been wanting to see
    you for a long while.
[04:08] Diana
    I really couldn't bring
    myself to go see her alone.
[04:20] Lynde
    They've a bitter time in store for them.
[04:23] Marilla
    We can do nothing now but watch.
[04:30] Diana
    Look!
[04:31] Diana
    It's like an island
    floating in a golden sea.
[04:34] Anne
    If we could sail to it in the moonshine,
    how nice it would be.
[04:39] Anne
    Do you think we could find
    all our yesterdays there?
[04:44] Diana
    Anne, you make me feel as if we were old
    women with everything in life behind us.
[04:52] Diana
    What is your story to be about?
[04:55] Anne
    I don't know yet.
[04:57] Anne
    The only thing I've settled
    on is the heroine's name.
[05:00] Anne
    It is to be Averil Lester.
[05:02] Diana
    Averil?
[05:03] Anne
    I'd like it to end unhappily, because
    that would be so much more romantic.
[05:06] Anne
    But I understand editors have a
    prejudice against sad endings.
[05:10] Anne
    "Nobody but a genius should try
    to write an unhappy ending."
[05:14] Anne
    And I'm anything but a genius.
[05:17] Diana
    I like happy endings best.
[05:19] Anne
    But you like to cry over stories?
[05:23] Diana
    Oh, yes, in the middle of them.
[05:25] Diana
    But I like everything to come right at last.
[05:37] Anne
    I don't know anyone here.
[05:39] Diana
    Where can Ruby be?
[05:41] Ruby
    Here I am!
[05:43] Ruby
    Oh, Diana. You've come, too.
[05:47] Diana
    Go on.
[05:48] Anne
    What will you do?
[05:50] Diana
    I'll go get something to drink.
[05:53] Ruby
    I'm going to teach in White Sands
    in the fall, you know.
[05:56] Ruby
    There's so much to prepare!
[05:59] Ruby
    I've a blue silk to make up yet.
[06:03] Ruby
    How do you like my hat?
[06:04] Ruby
    Too bright, do you think?
[06:06] Anne
    It suits you wonderfully.
[06:09] Ruby
    I'm so glad you came today.
[06:11] Ruby
    I'll be away Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
[06:14] Ruby
    There's a concert at Carmody
    and a party at White Sands.
[06:19] Ruby
    Herb Spencer's going to take me.
[06:21] Anne
    Herb?
[06:23] Ruby
    Did you think I was engaged to
    the Spencervale schoolmaster?
[06:27] Ruby
    That was only a rumor.
[06:29] Ruby
    I don't care a bit about
    the boys downstairs, either.
[06:32] Ruby
    They just work themselves up.
[06:34] Ruby
    Herb is Mr. Right..
[06:37] Anne
    I see.
[06:38] Anne
    You know, Ruby, I heard that
    you've been poorly lately.
[06:44] Ruby
    Why, I'm perfectly well!
[06:47] Ruby
    That congestion last winter
    pulled me down a little.
[06:51] Ruby
    But just see my color.
[06:52] Anne
    I see. That's good, then.
[06:56] Anne
    Now, I'd really better be going.
[06:59] Ruby
    What? Already?
[07:01] Ruby
    Thank you for today.
[07:03] Ruby
    I wanted to have a nice good talk with you.
[07:06] Ruby
    You and I were always
    good chums, weren't we?
[07:09] Anne
    Yes, we were.
[07:11] Ruby
    Come alone next time.
[07:13] Ruby
    When can I expect you?
[07:16] Diana
    Anne!
[07:17] Diana
    Anne, wait!
[07:19] Diana
    Anne!
[07:22] Anne
    Ruby's arms were so thin that I...
[07:25] Anne
    I felt I couldn't breathe.
[07:28] Diana
    Anne...
[07:31] Anne
    What shall I do, Diana?
[07:42] Harrison
    I wondered who it could be at this hour.
[07:44] Anne
    Mr. Harrison, it's been far too long.
[07:47] Harrison
    Home for the summer, are you?
[07:49] Anne
    Yes. Mrs. Lynde is baking pies
    tomorrow. I'll bring you one.
[07:53] Harrison
    No pie will convince me
    to give to the church.
[07:56] Diana
    Goodness!
[07:58] Diana
    He wouldn't give to the A.V.I.S.,
    and he won't come to church.
[08:01] Diana
    When did you make friends
    with this odd fellow, Anne?
[08:06] (Flashback) Harrison
    So I do, but my approval doesn't
    go as deep as my pocket.
[08:09] (Flashback) Ginger
    Redheaded snippet! Redheaded snippet!
[08:12] (Flashback) Harrison
    S-Stop that, you!
[08:14] Anne
    I know I was incensed at the time,
    but look how painting the hall turned out.
[08:21] Anne
    I've come to think that maybe
    Mr. Harrison had the right of it.
[08:25] Diana
    That was only a coincidence.
[08:28] Anne
    I suppose.
[08:29] Anne
    But he doesn't lie or flatter,
[08:32] Anne
    so when I finish my story, I'll want
    you and Mr. Harrison to read it.
[08:36] Diana
    What does Mr. Harrison know about stories?
[08:42] Lynde
    How was Ruby?
[08:45] Anne
    She seemed better than I'd feared.
[08:47] Marilla
    What, done already?
[08:49] Anne
    Yes. College students have so much to do.
[08:53] Lynde
    I'll bring you tea and cookies later.
[08:57] Anne
    Thank you.
[08:58] Davy
    Mrs. Lynde may be bossy, but at least
    she's not stingy with her cookies.
[09:04] Lynde
    I can hear you.
[09:14] (Flashback) Ruby
    When can I expect you?
[09:17] (Flashback) Diana
    I like happy endings best.
[09:20] Anne
    Averil Lester,
[09:23] Anne
    let me write your story.
[09:27] Anne
    I had made up my mind to write a story,
[09:30] Anne
    and although I hadn't planned it to,
    that summer's goal sustained me.
[09:43] Anne
    I visited Ruby nearly every day
    and spent the evenings with her.
[09:50] Ruby
    My father thinks it better that
    I shouldn't teach till New Year's.
[09:56] Anne
    I agree with him.
[09:58] Ruby
    Really!
[09:59] Ruby
    I'll wear my new dress
    to some party or other.
[10:02] Ruby
    The boys will fuss again, and they're
    dreadfully jealous of Herb already.
[10:14] Anne
    When I got home from visiting Ruby,
    I threw myself into the world of stories.
[10:20] Anne
    Averil is descended from a noble
    family fallen on hard times.
[10:23] Anne
    The hero, Perceval, is the heir to
    a newly minted business empire.
[10:28] Anne
    And Maurice, who persecutes
    Averil at every opportunity,
[10:32] Anne
    is a parvenu buoyed by
    political instability.
[10:37] Ruby
    At Christmas, I thought the Spencervale
    schoolmaster was the man for me.
[10:44] Ruby
    But I was wrong.
[10:46] Ruby
    He nearly went insane
    when I turned him down—
[10:50] Anne
    Ruby?!
[10:51] Anne
    I'll get you some water.
[10:52] Ruby
    Don't go!
[10:53] Ruby
    I'm fine. So stay here.
[10:56] Ruby
    I'll be all right in a moment.
[10:59] Anne
    Ruby hasn't got much longer.
[11:02] Anne
    We should have more important
    things to talk about.
[11:06] Anne
    The meaning of life, her goals...
    words to remember her by.
[11:09] Diana
    But that's Ruby all over.
[11:12] Diana
    She never did talk about
    anything except boys.
[11:16] Diana
    As long as she's boasting about her
    beaus, there's nothing to fear.
[11:22] Ruby
    Herb Spencer is the only one I like.
[11:28] Ruby
    I've come to see that we're
    meant for each other.
[11:31] Ruby
    I've gotten engaged to him.
[11:34] Ruby
    We're to be married in the new year.
[11:37] Ruby
    You must come to the wedding.
[11:38] Anne
    O-Of course.
[11:39] Ruby
    I'll have so much to do.
[11:44] Ruby
    Look, Anne.
[11:45] Ruby
    They hardly ever come into the yard.
[11:50] Ruby
    Are they brothers, do you think?
[11:54] Ruby
    Or maybe...
[12:06] Marilla
    Anne.
[12:08] Marilla
    Have you been getting enough sleep?
[12:10] Anne
    Yes.
[12:11] Marilla
    Every time you go to see Ruby,
     you come home looking tired out.
[12:15] Marilla
    I don't see why you can't stop.
[12:18] Anne
    I feel as if she's struggling
    with an invisible foe,
[12:22] Anne
    trying to push it back with such
    feeble resistance as she has.
[12:25] Anne
    I can only watch her,
[12:28] Anne
    but even so, someone must.
[12:41] Diana
    It's so lovely how Averil and
    Perceval marry in the end.
[12:44] Anne
    You mean it?!
[12:46] Diana
    Only...
[12:46] Anne
    O-Only what?
[12:48] Diana
    Why did you kill Maurice?
[12:51] Anne
    He was the villain.
[12:53] Anne
    If I had let him live, he'd have
    gone on persecuting Perceval.
[12:56] Diana
    But that's what I like about him.
[12:58] Diana
    Well, anyway, it's a perfectly
    elegant story, Anne,
[13:03] Diana
    and will make you famous,
    of that I'm sure.
[13:06] Harrison
    It's shaped up some.
[13:08] Anne
    I did as you said and cut all the flowery
    passages with no bearing on the plot.
[13:14] Harrison
    Still...
[13:16] Anne
    Still what?
[13:17] Harrison
    I don't see why Maurice didn't get her.
[13:20] Anne
    Maurice was the villain. I don't see why
    everyone likes him better than Perceval.
[13:26] Harrison
    Perceval is too good. He's aggravating.
[13:31] Harrison
    Listen, stories are all make-believe.
[13:35] Harrison
    So you've got to make your readers
    believe that they could really happen.
[13:41] Harrison
    But your folks ain't like
    real folks anywhere.
[13:45] Diana
    What will you do?
[13:47] Diana
    Fix it up like Mr. Harrison said?
[13:51] Diana
    Of course not. It is your story, Anne.
[13:54] Diana
    I just know it will be a success.
[13:56] Anne
    I sent "Averil's Atonement" to the
    biggest of the "big" Yankee magazines.
[14:03] Anne
    But two weeks later...
[14:05] Diana
    I never thought much of
    that magazine, anyway!
[14:09] Diana
    Don't be discouraged, Anne.
    Send it to the Canadian Woman.
[14:13] Diana
    Remember how Mrs. Morgan's
    stories came back.
[14:18] Diana
    They can't have read it at all!
[14:21] Diana
    See if I ever read the Canadian Woman again!
[14:24] Anne
    It was just a silly idea anyhow.
[14:27] Anne
    I'll focus my energies on teaching
    after I graduate from Redmond.
[14:31] Anne
    This is the end of my literary ambitions.
[14:36] Diana
    Anne, could you see your way to copying
    part of "Averil's Atonement" for me?
[14:42] Anne
    Certainly, if you like.
[14:52] Ruby
    Anne, would you lend me a hand?
[14:55] Ruby
    I want to send invitations to my next party,
[14:59] Ruby
    but they won't go into the envelopes right.
[15:06] Anne
    You'd better rest!
[15:08] Anne
    Come on.
[15:10] Ruby
    I won't go with you.
[15:14] Anne
    Ruby?
[15:16] Ruby
    Go away.
[15:19] Ruby
    Leave me be.
[15:21] Ruby
    Leave me be!
[15:25] Anne
    Ruby?
[15:27] Anne
    Ruby! Ruby!
[15:29] Doctor
    The fever has confused her, I'm afraid.
[15:31] Mrs. Gillis
    My daughter is fine.
    There's nothing the matter with her.
[15:38] Gilbert
    Anne!
[15:41] Marilla
    Promise me you won't go again!
[15:44] Marilla
    What if you catch consumption
    and end up like poor Ruby?
[15:50] Marilla
    I can't bear the thought!
[15:52] Anne
    You needn't worry, Marilla.
[15:55] Anne
    I won't be seeing Ruby anymore.
[16:36] Anne
    Hello, Mr. Harrison.
[16:41] Harrison
    Is that so?
[16:43] Anne
    I've given it up completely.
[16:45] Anne
    I feel refreshed, if anything.
[16:48] Anne
    To think that writing stories
    was such a weight on my mind!
[16:52] Harrison
    I wouldn't give up altogether.
[16:57] Harrison
    I'd write a story once in a while, Anne.
[17:02] Anne
    I don't think I will.
[17:03] Anne
    Excuse me.
[17:06] Anne
    How can he say that when he
    came down so hard on it?
[17:09] Anne
    I've had enough. I've suffered enough hurt.
[17:15] Anne
    "Hurt"?
[17:22] Anne
    What does it matter?
[17:25] Anne
    Ruby...
[17:26] Anne
    Ruby is...
[17:44] Anne
    Ruby, I...
[17:46] Ruby
    Look.
[17:50] Ruby
    How ghostly it looks.
[17:54] Ruby
    It won't be long now before
    I'll be lying over there.
[17:57] Anne
    Ruby? What are you saying?
[17:59] Ruby
    You know it's so, don't you?
[18:02] Ruby
    I know it—I've known it all summer,
[18:05] Ruby
    though I wouldn't give in.
[18:08] Ruby
    I'm just... afraid.
[18:11] Ruby
    I'm not afraid but that I'll go to heaven.
[18:14] Ruby
    Heaven must be very beautiful,
    of course, the Bible says so.
[18:20] Ruby
    But, Anne, it won't be
    what I've been used to
.
[18:25] Ruby
    And I'll have to go there... all alone.
[18:30] Anne
    Oh, please, give me...
[18:33] Anne
    Give me the words to help
    Ruby, even a little,
[18:37] Anne
    wise people and elders of Avonlea,
    of Prince Edward Island, of heaven!
[18:45] Anne
    I think perhaps... life in heaven
    can't be so different from here.
[18:51] Anne
    I believe we'll just go on living,
    a good deal as we live here—
[18:56] Anne
    and be ourselves just the same.
[19:00] Anne
    Only it will be easier to be good
    and to—follow the highest.
[19:07] Anne
    Don't be afraid, Ruby.
[19:09] Ruby
    I can't help it.
[19:11] Ruby
    I just can't.
[19:14] Ruby
    Even if what you say about heaven is true,
    I've never been. I've never seen it.
[19:22] Ruby
    It may be only that imagination of yours!
[19:27] Ruby
    It won't be just the same! It can't be!
[19:34] Ruby
    I want to live.
[19:38] Ruby
    I want to live like other girls.
[19:40] Ruby
    To be married and have little children.
[19:45] Ruby
    And then poor Herb.
[19:47] Ruby
    He loves me,
[19:50] Ruby
    and I... I love him.
[20:11] Ruby
    I'm glad I've told you this, Anne.
[20:14] Ruby
    I've wanted to all summer.
[20:18] Ruby
    But I couldn't.
[20:20] Ruby
    It seemed as if it would make death
    so sure if I said I was going to die.
[20:27] Ruby
    I'll try.
[20:29] Ruby
    I'll think over what you have said,
    and try to believe it.
[20:33] Anne
    Good. I know you can.
[20:36] Ruby
    Thank you. For all you've ever done for me.
[20:39] Ruby
    I've always liked you best of all my friends.
[20:45] Ruby
    You'll come up soon again.
[20:47] Anne
    Y-Yes, very soon.
[20:50] Anne
    I promise.
[20:54] Ruby
    It's all right.
[20:56] Ruby
    Nothing seems quite so dreadful now.
[21:19] Davy
    Ruby Gillis was a great girl to laugh.
[21:23] Davy
    Will she laugh as much in heaven?
[21:26] Dora
    I hope heaven is like Avonlea.
[21:31] Anne
    Yes, so do I.
[21:34] Anne
    I think she will laugh.
[21:36] Anne
    I think...
[21:39] Anne
    she's laughing now.

[00:01] Anne
    As the summer we lost Ruby came to an end,
[00:04] Anne
    I was preparing for my return to Kingsport...
[00:07] Harrison
    Say, Anne, been writing
    any more stories lately?
[00:13] Anne
    No.
[00:14] Harrison
    Well, Mrs. Hiram Sloane told me
    the other day that a big envelope
[00:18] Harrison
    addressed to that baking powder company
    had been dropped into the post office box.
[00:23] Harrison
    I suspected that maybe you were
    trying for the prize they'd offered
[00:27] Harrison
    for the best story that introduced
    the name of their baking powder.
[00:32] Anne
    Indeed, no!
[00:35] Anne
    I think it would be perfectly disgraceful
    to write a story as an advertisement.
[00:41] Diana
    Anne!
[00:42] Diana
    There you are.
[00:44] Diana
    Here's a letter for you.
[00:46] Diana
    Here!
[00:47] Diana
    I was at the office, so I
    thought I'd bring it along.
[00:51] Diana
    Do open it quick.
[00:53] Anne
    What's come over you, Diana?
[00:55] Diana
    I'm wild with delight. Go on, read it.
[01:00] Anne
    "We have much pleasure in informing you"
[01:02] Anne
    "that your charming story
    'Averil's Atonement'"
[01:06] Anne
    "has won the prize of twenty-five dollars
    offered in our recent competition."
[01:12] Anne
    "Yours very truly,

SIGN    My World Has
    Tumbled Into Pieces
[02:54] Anne
    I don't understand.
[02:56] Anne
    How could my story have won the prize?
[02:59] Diana
    I sent it!
[03:02] Diana
    Oh, I knew it would win!
[03:05] Diana
    At first I thought I'd
    ask you to send it in.
[03:07] Diana
    But you had so little faith left in it.
[03:10] Diana
    So I just decided I'd send
    the copy you gave me.
[03:14] Diana
    Why, Anne, you don't seem a bit pleased!
[03:18] Anne
    I'm so amazed—I can't realize it.
[03:20] Anne
    There wasn't a word in my story about...
    about baking powder.
[03:24] Diana
    Oh, I put that in.
[03:26] Diana
    It was as easy as a wink.
[03:29] Diana
    When Averil bakes the cake,
[03:32] Diana
    I just added, "and I will never use
    any baking powder except Rollings."
[03:37] Diana
    Here!
[03:38] Diana
    The twenty-five dollars you've won!
[03:43] Anne
    Diana,
[03:44] Anne
    I can't take it.
[03:47] Anne
    It's yours by right. You sent the story in.
[03:51] Diana
    The honor of being a friend of the
    prize-winner is enough for me.
[03:54] Diana
    I'm so glad for your sake, Anne.
[03:57] Anne
    Oh, Diana,
[04:00] Anne
    I think you are the sweetest and
    truest friend in the world,
[04:06] Anne
    and I assure you I appreciate
    the motive of what you've done.
[04:23] Davy
    Gilbert's here to see you, Anne.
[04:26] Davy
    Are you well?
[04:30] Gilbert
    Why, what is the matter?
[04:33] Gilbert
    I came to congratulate you.
[04:35] Anne
    Oh, Gilbert, not you.
[04:39] Anne
    I thought you would understand.
[04:42] Gilbert
    I must confess I can't. What is wrong?
[04:45] Anne
    Everything.
[04:46] Anne
    I loved my poor little story.
[04:50] Anne
    What will the professors think when they
    hear I've written an advertisement?
[04:56] Anne
    And, oh, when it gets out at Redmond!
    Think how I'll be teased and laughed at!
[05:01] Gilbert
    Why worry what anyone else thinks?
[05:06] Gilbert
    One would rather write masterpieces
    of literature, no doubt.
[05:11] Gilbert
    But, meanwhile, meals have to be
    bought and board has to be paid.
[05:16] Gilbert
    Put the prize toward tuition fees and
    consider that it enhances your learning.
[05:24] Anne
    I suppose one must face reality.
[05:27] Anne
    But I cannot feel easy in my mind about it.
[05:30] Gilbert
    Then will you let me read
    your story sometime?
[05:34] Anne
    Certainly. But whatever for?
[05:36] Gilbert
    Because then I'll be able to tell whether
    you wrote it as an advertisement.
[05:40] Anne
    I'd like you to read it very much.
[05:44] Anne
    Isn't it lovely?
[05:45] Anne
    Do you know, I didn't notice until just now?
[05:48] Gilbert
    This view has made my own cares pale
    into insignificance more than once.
[05:55] Anne
    Gilbert, did you really
    come to congratulate me?
[06:00] Gilbert
    Yes, of course.
[06:02] Anne
    He must have known I was feeling miserable.
[06:06] Gilbert
    Good. She looks more
    cheerful than I'd feared.
[06:09] Anne
    Thank you.
[06:18] Gilbert
    Just think, next week we start
    our second year at Redmond.
[06:28] Philippa
    It's homier than home.
[06:32] Anne
    It's pictures galore after all, I see.
[06:35] Anne
    Although Miss Patty didn't seem to want
    us putting more holes in her wallpaper.
[06:40] Philippa
    We'll putty the holes
    up when we leave, dear.
[06:43] Philippa
    Now, Stella, when does
    Aunt Jamesina come to live with us?
[06:47] Stella
    Tomorrow. And she's bringing a cat.
[06:51] Priscilla
    A cat! I adore cats!
[06:52] Anne
    Then there will be six of
    us living under one roof.
[06:56] Philippa
    Five and one animal, you mean.
[06:58] Priscilla
    Call it four and two animals.
[07:08] Philippa
    Good morning, Charlie.
[07:11] Philippa
    My, what good friends you are.
[07:14] Anne
    Oh, stop it.
[07:16] Gilbert
    Good morning, friendly fellow lodgers.
[07:19] Philippa
    Good morning, Gilbert.
[07:21] Philippa
    The living room has come
    together splendidly.
[07:24] Philippa
    You must visit.
[07:26] Gilbert
    Of course.
[07:31] Gilbert
    Well, I have class across the hall.
[07:34] Priscilla
    Later, then.
[07:35] Philippa
    Anne?
[07:37] Philippa
    Has anything happened
    between you and Gilbert?
[07:39] Anne
    No.
[07:41] Anne
    What?
[07:42] Philippa
    I don't miss much in affairs of the heart.
[07:45] Anne
    Honestly, nothing's happened!
[07:46] Philippa
    You don't need to hide it.
[07:59] Anne
    Goodness!
[08:01] Anne
    You mustn't follow me.
[08:03] Anne
    I'm sorry, but we already
    have a cat coming to stay.
[08:15] Anne
    No. Shoo.
[08:20] Anne
    It's not a laughing matter!
[08:23] Philippa
    That cat must have taken a
    real fancy to you, Anne.
[08:26] Priscilla
    Was he as thin as all that?
[08:28] Stella
    You should have fed him.
[08:31] Anne
    No. If I did that, I would have to keep him.
[08:48] Anne
    You can't simply waltz in uninvited.
[08:51] Priscilla
    He has evidently adopted you.
[08:53] Philippa
    He really is emaciated.
[08:55] Stella
    Poor creature.
[08:56] Anne
    Well, I'll give him a square meal and
    then he must return to whence he came.
[09:16] Philippa
    He plainly means to stay.
[09:18] Priscilla
    Something has to be done.
[09:19] Stella
    We can't keep him.
[09:21] Stella
    Aunt Jimsie will bring her cat with her.
[09:24] Anne
    Yes.
[09:26] Anne
    That's why I told him and
    myself that it was not to be.
[09:34] Anne
    Oh.
[09:37] Anne
    Oh, I can't pretend any longer!
[09:40] Anne
    He's my cat!
[09:42] Anne
    His name is Rusty!
[09:44] Philippa
    What, you've already christened him?
[09:47] Priscilla
    How like Anne.
[09:49] Stella
    Now you'll have to convince
    Aunt Jimsie and the other cat.
[09:55] Anne
    Yes, I'll try.
[09:57] Anne
    Be good, Rusty.
[10:01] Stella
    Um... Aunt Jamesina,
[10:04] Stella
    I thought you said you
    were bringing one cat.
[10:07] Jamesina
    A dear friend begged me to take him.
[10:10] Jamesina
    The stately one is the Sarah-cat.
[10:12] Jamesina
    The meek one is my dear friend's, Joseph.
[10:16] Jamesina
    The Sarah-cat never fights
    and Joseph rarely.
[10:23] Anne
    Rusty!
[10:33] Anne
    No, Rusty!
[10:35] Anne
    Stop that!
[10:37] Jamesina
    It's all right. Let them fight it out.
[10:45] Jamesina
    You see?
[10:46] Jamesina
    They've made friends.
[10:49] Anne
    How I admire you, Aunt Jamesina!
[10:53] Jamesina
    But I only keep cats proper.
[10:57] Jamesina
    You're old enough to know how to
    behave if you're ever going to be.
[11:02] Anne; Priscilla; Philippa; Stella
    Of course.
[11:03] Jamesina
    But then again,
[11:05] Jamesina
    as far as I am concerned, you can all
    go to destruction in your own way.
[11:23] Anne
    Gilbert.
[11:25] Anne
    You would be very unwise.
[11:36] Anne
    Thank you.
[11:56] Philippa
    What a dull, interminable day it's been.
[12:00] Anne
    But to some people, it has
    been a wonderful day.
[12:04] Anne
    And some heart has been broken.
[12:07] Philippa
    I don't like to think of broken
    hearts or anything unpleasant.
[12:11] Anne
    Do you think you'll be able to shirk
    unpleasant things all your life, Phil?
[12:15] Philippa
    Dear me, no. Am I not up against them now?
[12:19] Philippa
    Alec and Alonzo simply plague my life out.
[12:23] Jamesina
    It shouldn't be hard to decide.
[12:27] Philippa
    I was born a seesaw, Auntie, and nothing
    can ever prevent me from teetering.
[12:34] Philippa
    Oh, I'd marry Gilbert Blythe if he were rich.
[12:39] Anne
    Gilbert and you?
[12:44] Anne
    You have every right, of course.
[12:48] Philippa
    Oh, I'm not setting out
    to marry Gilbert Blythe.
[12:54] Philippa
    Perish the thought.
[12:56] Philippa
    I'll have to marry sometime, I suppose,
[13:01] Philippa
    but I shall put off the
    evil day as long as I can.
[13:05] Philippa
    In any case, I'm starving now.
[13:09] Anne
    I made a lemon pie this morning.
    It's in the pantry.
[13:12] Philippa
    You're a darling!
[13:19] Philippa
    May today be a wonderful day for you!
[13:26] Jamesina
    That girl is pretty and
    sweet and good-hearted,
[13:26] Philippa
    Oh, it looks scrumptious! I can't help myself!
[13:29] Jamesina
    but do you think she is quite
    right in her mind, by spells?
[13:33] Anne
    There's nothing the matter with Phil's mind.
    It's just her way of talking.
[13:39] Anne
    It's a fine day, Rusty.
    Shall we go for a walk?
[13:56] Anne
    Rusty?
[14:06] Anne
    Hello, Gilbert.
[14:08] Gilbert
    Hello, Anne.
[14:10] Anne
    Mayflowers?
[14:11] Gilbert
    Yes.
[14:12] Gilbert
    Don't these remind you of home
    and our old school-day picnics?
[14:18] Anne
    Oh, yes.
[14:20] Gilbert
    I suppose you will be there
    in reality in a few days?
[14:25] Anne
    Yes, once I put the house in order.
[14:29] Anne
    You'll be in Avonlea before I will.
[14:32] Gilbert
    No, I shall not be in Avonlea
    at all this summer.
[14:35] Gilbert
    I've been offered a job in the Daily News
    office and I'm going to take it.
[14:40] Anne
    Oh, Phil... Phil, come out this instant.
[14:41] Anne
    You mustn't work too hard.
[14:47] Anne
    Isn't this a delightful evening?
[14:49] Anne
    Do you know, I found a cluster of white violets
    under that tree over there?
[14:55] Anne
    I felt as if I had discovered a gold mine.
[14:58] Anne
    Let us go and see if we can find some more.
[15:01] Anne
    I'll call Phil and—
[15:05] Gilbert
    Never mind Phil and the violets just now.
[15:09] Gilbert
    There is something I want to say to you.
[15:12] Anne
    Oh, don't say it. Don't—please, Gilbert.
[15:15] Gilbert
    I must. Things can't go
    on like this any longer.
[15:20] Gilbert
    Anne, I love you.
[15:23] Gilbert
    You know I do.
[15:25] Gilbert
    I can't tell you how much.
[15:28] Gilbert
    Will you promise me that
    some day, you'll be my wife?
[15:36] Anne
    I...
[15:38] Anne
    I...
[15:41] Anne
    I can't.
[15:43] Anne
    Oh, Gilbert, you've spoiled everything.
[15:55] Gilbert
    How... How do you feel about me?
[15:59] Anne
    I do care a great deal for you as a friend.
[16:03] Anne
    But I don't love you, Gilbert.
[16:07] Gilbert
    But can't you give me some
    hope that you will—yet?
[16:12] Anne
    No, I can't.
[16:14] Anne
    You must never speak of this to me again.
[16:17] Anne
    And we must go on being friends.
[16:22] Gilbert
    Friends!
[16:24] Gilbert
    I want your love—and you tell
    me I can never have that.
[16:31] Anne
    I'm sorry.
[16:33] Gilbert
    There have been times when
    I thought you did care.
[16:38] Gilbert
    I've deceived myself, that's all.
[16:44] Gilbert
    Goodbye, Anne.
[17:06] Philippa
    You are an idiot, Anne Shirley!
[17:09] Anne
    Do you call it idiotic to refuse
    to marry a man I don't love?
[17:14] Philippa
    You don't know love when you see it.
[17:18] Philippa
    You've tricked something out with your
    imagination that you think love,
[17:23] Philippa
    and you expect the real
    thing to look like that.
[17:26] Anne
    Phil, please go away and leave
    me alone for a little while.
[17:35] Anne
    My world has tumbled into pieces.
[17:40] Anne
    I want to reconstruct it.
[17:43] Philippa
    Without any Gilbert in it?
[17:50] Anne
    A world without any Gilbert in it?!
[17:54] Anne
    A world without any Gilbert in it?
[17:58] Anne
    A world without...
[18:09] Marilla
    Is that you, Rachel? That was quick.
[18:13] Anne
    Hello, Marilla.
[18:16] Marilla
    Anne Shirley!
[18:18] Marilla
    I never looked for you till tomorrow night.
[18:21] Anne
    I just got homesick all at once,
    and came a day earlier.
[18:26] Anne
    I've had such a lovely walk,
    picking flowers in the twilight.
[18:30] Anne
    Smell them.
[18:35] Marilla
    Sit down, child. You must be real tired.
[18:41] Anne
    I am.
[18:43] Marilla
    How is Gilbert?
[18:45] Marilla
    He isn't coming home this summer, I hear.
[18:49] Anne
    He is.
[18:53] Davy
    Anne, ain't I glad to see you!
[18:55] Anne
    Davy!
[18:57] Davy
    Say, Anne, I've grown
    two inches since last fall.
[19:01] Davy
    And say, Anne, see my
    front tooth. It's gone.
[19:05] Anne
    Goodness! And have you been a good boy?
[19:08] Davy
    Yes. But say, I'm tired of being good.
[19:12] Anne
    You'd get tired of being bad much sooner.
[19:16] Davy
    Well, it'd be fun while
    it lasted, wouldn't it?
[19:20] Davy
    I could be sorry for it
    afterwards, couldn't I?
[19:22] Anne
    Being sorry wouldn't do away with the
    consequences of being bad, Davy.
[19:27] Marilla
    Now, stop talking nonsense
    and come have your supper.
[19:32] Davy; Dora
    All right.
[19:34] Lynde
    You look well, Anne.
[19:36] Dora
    Welcome home, Anne.
[19:39] Anne
    It's good to be home.
[19:42] Anne
    Thank you very much for having me.
[19:44] Lavendar
    Seeing you is one of the pleasures
    of coming home for the summer.
[19:50] Anne
    I am so glad our homecomings overlapped.
[19:53] Anne
    How you've grown, Paul.
[19:56] Paul
    I'm thirteen now.
[20:05] Anne
    Where has the summer gone?
[20:09] Anne
    It doesn't seem a day since I came home
    that spring evening with the violets.
[20:16] Anne
    When I was little, I couldn't see from
    one end of the summer to the other.
[20:23] Anne
    It stretched before me
    like an unending season.
[20:31] Anne
    Now "'tis a handbreadth, 'tis a tale."
[20:36] Lavendar
    Anne, are you and Gilbert Blythe
    as good friends as you used to be?
[20:43] Anne
    I am just as much Gilbert's
    friend as ever I was.
[20:48] Lavendar
    Have you quarreled?
[20:51] Anne
    No; it's only that Gilbert
    wants more than friendship
[20:58] Anne
    and I can't give him more.
[21:01] Lavendar
    Are you sure of that?
[21:05] Lavendar
    I'm very, very sorry.
[21:07] Anne
    I wonder why everybody seems to think
    I ought to marry Gilbert Blythe.
[21:14] Lavendar
    Because you were made and meant for
    each other, Anne—that is why.
[21:21] Lavendar
    But you are still young.
[21:24] Lavendar
    You needn't decide on everything now.
[21:28] Anne
    Why ever did Gilbert say such things?
[21:32] Anne
    He must have known I would refuse.
[21:35] Lavendar
    He probably couldn't help himself.
[21:38] Lavendar
    That's how much he loves you.

[00:07] Marilla
    Anne, there's a letter for you.
[00:09] Anne
    Thank you, Marilla.
[00:13] Anne
    It's from Philippa.
[00:15] Anne
    Having spent the summer of my
    twentieth year uneventfully in Avonlea,
[00:19] Anne
    I stood ready to begin my junior year
    at Redmond come fall.

[00:25] Anne
    Phil is going...
[00:29] Anne
    to marry a minister?!
SIGN    Chapter 21
SIGN    Has the Real Prince
    Come at Last...?
[02:08] Philippa
    Dear Anne—spelled with an e*,
[02:14] Philippa
    I'm writing to you from Prospect Point.
[02:18] Philippa
    I always like to spend summers at the shore,
[02:21] Philippa
    and this year, I've come to stay*
    with my cousin Emily here.
[02:25] Philippa
    Emily's "select boardinghouse" has
    five boarders besides myself—
[02:30] Philippa
    four old ladies and one young man.
[02:34] Philippa
    The young man's name is Jonas Blake.
[02:38] Philippa
    The day I arrived, I saw him
    sitting opposite to me at the table,
[02:43] Philippa
    smiling at me as if he had
    known me from my cradle.
[02:51] (Flashback) Philippa
    Thank you.
[02:52] (Flashback) Jonas
    You're welcome.
[02:53] Philippa
    He is a theological student
    from St. Columba,
[02:56] Philippa
    and he has taken charge of the Point
    Prospect Mission Church for the summer.
[03:01] Philippa
    He has a big, loose-jointed
    figure with absurdly long legs.
[03:05] Philippa
    And his ears—but I never think
    about his ears if I can help it.
[03:13] Philippa
    But he has a lovely voice.
[03:16] Philippa
    If you shut your eyes and just listen...
[03:16] Jonas
    How pleasantly astringent
    this tea is. Delightful.
[03:19] Old Woman
    Indeed it is.
[03:20] Philippa
    ...he is adorable.
[03:21] Jonas
    It's enough to gladden my heart.
[03:24] Philippa
    We were good chums right away.
[03:27] Philippa
    Of course he is a graduate of Redmond,
    and that is a link between us.
[03:32] Philippa
    We fished and boated together;
[03:36] Philippa
    and we walked on the sands by moonlight.
[03:40] Philippa
    By moonlight...
[03:42] Philippa
    oh, he was nice.
[03:46] Philippa
    Niceness fairly exhaled from him.
[03:53] Philippa
    Somehow, Anne, I don't want
    him to think me frivolous.
[03:59] Philippa
    This is ridiculous.
[04:01] Philippa
    Why should I care what a
    tow-haired person called Jonas,
[04:06] Philippa
    whom I never saw before, thinks of me?
[04:13] Philippa
    Last Sunday, Jonas preached
    in the village church.
[04:18] (Flashback) Jonas
    Today, I'd like to think about
    happiness with you all.
[04:23] (Flashback) Jonas
    To wit, what is happiness?
[04:26] Philippa
    By the time he had preached ten minutes,
[04:26] Jonas
    Some people might answer, "to grow wealthy."
[04:29] Philippa
    I felt so small and insignificant
[04:30] Jonas
    I think that gaining spiritual
    riches is a wonderful thing,
[04:34] Philippa
    that I thought I must be
    invisible to the naked eye.
[04:34] Jonas
    but seeking only wealth
    pushes happiness away.
[04:39] Philippa
    Jonas never looked at me.
[04:43] Philippa
    But I realized how horribly different
    I must be from Jonas's ideal woman.
[04:50] Philippa
    He was so earnest and tender and true.
[04:54] Philippa
    He was everything a minister ought to be.
[04:56] Philippa
    I could have listened forever.
[05:00] Philippa
    He caught up with me on the road home,
    and grinned as cheerfully as usual.
[05:05] Philippa
    I had seen the real Jonas.
[05:10] Philippa
    I wondered if he could
    ever see the
real Phil—
[05:17] Philippa
    whom nobody—not even you,
    Anne—has ever seen yet.
[05:23] (Flashback) Philippa
    Jonas, you were born to be a minister.
[05:27] (Flashback) Jonas
    You're right.
[05:28] (Flashback) Jonas
    I tried to be something
    else for a long time.
[05:34] (Flashback) Jonas
    But I came to see at last that it
    was the work given me to do—
[05:40] (Flashback) Jonas
    and God helping me, I shall try to do it.
[05:45] Philippa
    I thought that he would do his
    work and do it well and nobly;
[05:51] Philippa
    and happy the woman fitted
    to help him do it.
[05:57] Philippa
    She would be no feather, blown about
    by every fickle wind of fancy.

[06:07] Philippa**
    She would always know what hat to put on.
[06:12] Philippa**
    Probably she would have only one.
[06:15] Philippa
    But she wouldn't mind having
    one hat or none at all,
[06:19] Philippa
    because she would have Jonas.
[06:22] Philippa
    Anne, don't you dare to say or hint
    that I've fallen in love with Jonas.
[06:28] Philippa
    Could I care for a lank,
    poor, ugly theologue?
[06:32] Philippa
    Good night.
[06:35] Philippa
    P.S. It is impossible—
[06:38] Philippa
    but I am horribly afraid it's true.
[06:45] Philippa
    He can never care for me, I know.
[06:51] Philippa**
    Do you think I could ever develop into
    a passable minister's wife, Anne?
[06:58] Philippa
    And would they expect me to lead in prayer?
[07:03] Philippa
    Phil Gordon.
[07:09] Anne
    I've an afternoon to spend
    in sweet doing nothing.
[07:14] Anne
    Shall I spend it here where there is a
    cozy fire, a plateful of delicious russets,
[07:20] Anne
    and three purring and harmonious cats?
[07:26] Anne
    Or shall I go to the park, where
    there is the lure of gray woods
[07:30] Anne
    and of gray water lapping
    on the harbor rocks?
[07:32] Jamesina
    If I was as young as you,
    I'd decide in favor of the park.
[07:36] Anne
    I thought that you claimed to be
    as young as any of us, Auntie.
[07:42] Jamesina
    Yes, in my soul.
[07:45] Jamesina
    But I'll admit my legs
    aren't as young as yours.
[07:49] Jamesina
    You go and get some fresh air, Anne.
[07:52] Jamesina
    You look pale lately.
[07:56] Anne
    I think I will go to the park.
[07:58] Anne
    I want to feel alone and free and wild.
[08:02] Jamesina
    Take your umbrella,
    for I believe it's going to rain.
[08:05] Anne
    Rain? I shouldn't think so.
[08:07] Stella
    You shouldn't flirt so with
    Mr. Blake—you really shouldn't.
[08:10] Philippa
    I'm not flirting with him.
[08:13] Stella
    You don't fool me. You're amusing yourself.
[08:19] Stella
    Mr. Blake isn't of the
    Alec-and-Alonzo type, Phil.
[08:22] Stella
    He takes things seriously.
[08:25] Stella
    You may break his heart.
[08:30] Philippa
    Do you really think I could?!
[08:34] Stella
    Philippa Gordon!
[08:35] Stella
    I never thought you were utterly unfeeling.
[08:39] Stella
    You are leading that man on deliberately—
[08:42] Stella
    and you know you don't mean anything by it.
[08:44] Philippa
    Not so, honey.
[08:46] Philippa
    I mean to make him ask me
    to marry him if I can.
[08:50] Stella
    I give you up!
[08:52] Anne
    Stella!
[08:57] Anne
    Give her a proper explanation later.
[08:59] Philippa
    You know I will.
[09:03] Male Student
    Excuse me!
[09:06] Male Student
    I... I know this is sudden, Anne Shirley.
[09:09] Male Student
    May I have a moment? Just a moment?
[09:11] Male Student
    Would you please hear me out?
[09:14] Anne
    I cannot give you the answer you hope for.
[09:17] Anne
    I'm sorry.
[09:33] (Flashback) Anne
    Oh, Gilbert, you've spoiled everything.
[09:43] Anne
    If the real Prince Charming will never come,
[09:46] Anne
    I need no substitutes.
[10:10] Roy
    Pardon me.
[10:12] Roy
    May I offer you the shelter of my umbrella?
[10:21] Anne
    P-Pri...
[10:23] Anne
    Prince Charming?
[10:35] Roy
    You'll get rained on.
[10:37] Roy
    Come under my umbrella.
[10:44] Anne
    Th-Thank you.
[10:47] Roy
    We can wait there until this shower is over.
[10:56] Anne
    I didn't know what I would do when
    my umbrella turned inside out.
[11:01] Roy
    If you'd like.
[11:02] Anne
    Oh, I have my own! But thank you.
[11:10] Roy
    My name is Royal Gardner.
[11:13] Roy
    And you are the Miss Shirley who wrote
    that Tennyson paper, aren't you?
[11:18] Anne
    Yes, I am.
[11:19] Roy
    I thought so.
[11:21] Roy
    Then we are schoolmates, I see.
[11:24] Anne
    I'm sorry, but I cannot place you at all.
[11:28] Roy
    I'm sure you can't.
[11:29] Roy
    I don't belong to any class yet.
[11:33] Roy
    I put in two years at Redmond,
    then I went to Europe for a spell.
[11:38] Roy
    Now I've come back to finish my arts course.
[11:41] Anne
    This is my junior year, too.
[11:44] Roy
    So we are classmates...
[11:46] Anne
    As well as college-mates!
[11:51] Roy
    I suddenly regret the two years
    I couldn't spend with you.
[12:01] Roy
    It appears even the weather
    has blessed our meeting.
[12:06] Roy
    Come. I'll walk you home.
[12:09] Anne
    Oh, you needn't. It isn't far.
[12:11] Roy
    Come on.
[12:17] Roy
    What shall I call you, Miss Shirley?
[12:21] Anne
    Anne. Spelled with an e, if you don't mind.
[12:25] Roy
    Anne. How was that?
[12:29] Anne
    Perfect.
[12:31] Roy
    May I see you again, Anne?
[12:34] Roy
    I'd like to talk at our leisure.
[12:37] Anne
    Yes. Yes, of course.
[12:48] Philippa
    Royal Gardner!
[12:50] Philippa
    Where did you meet him?! Be honest!
[12:54] Anne
    Today in the park.
[12:55] Anne
    My umbrella turned inside out and
    he came to my rescue with his.
[13:00] Philippa
    Oh! And is that exceedingly commonplace
    incident any reason why he should send us
[13:07] Philippa
    long-stemmed roses by the dozen,
    with a very sentimental rhyme?
[13:12] Philippa
    "Anne, my life till now has been
    but a prologue to meeting you!"
[13:18] Philippa
    You're blushing rosy-red.
[13:19] Anne
    Don't talk nonsense, Phil.
[13:21] Anne
    Do you know Mr. Gardner?
[13:23] Philippa
    Yes. Roy is adorably handsome and clever.
[13:27] Anne
    Is that all?
[13:28] Philippa
    I've met his two sisters.
[13:31] Philippa
    The Gardners are among the
    richest, bluest, of Bluenoses.
[13:37] Philippa
    Two years ago, his mother's health failed
    and he had to go abroad with her.
[13:44] Philippa
    He must have been greatly disappointed
    to have to give up his class,
[13:50] Philippa
    but they say he was
    perfectly sweet about it.
[13:55] Philippa
    Anne.
[13:56] Philippa
    I smell romance.
[13:58] Anne
    You goose.
[14:15] Philippa
    Anne, delivery for you.
[14:19] Philippa
    "Your eyes shine like the morning
    star at dawn. Roy Gardner."
[14:25] Stella; Priscilla
    Wow.
[14:27] Philippa
    "Surely you stole the rosy hue
    of your cheeks from the dawn herself."
[14:33] Philippa
    "Roy Gardner."
[14:35] Stella; Priscilla
    Wow!
[14:36] Philippa
    "Your lips are redder than the
    roses of paradise. Roy Gardner."
[14:57] Philippa
    Your dashing prince has arrived!
[15:02] Philippa
    Why, how handsome you look!
[15:05] Philippa
    Nine nights out of ten,
    I can easily outshine you.
[15:09] Philippa
    The tenth, you blossom out suddenly into
    something that eclipses me altogether.
[15:14] Anne
    It's the dress, dear.
[15:15] Philippa
    'Tisn't.
[15:17] Philippa
    If Roy hadn't already lost head and heart
    about you, he certainly would tonight.
[15:24] Philippa
    But...
[15:25] Philippa
    that orchid in your hair.
[15:28] Philippa
    I'm sure it's a present from Roy,
    but I don't like orchids on you.
[15:33] Philippa
    Don't take offense.
[15:36] Philippa
    Orchids are too affected.
    They don't seem to belong to you.
[15:42] Anne
    You think so, too?
[15:44] Anne
    I admit I'm not fond of orchids myself.
    I don't think they're related to me.
[15:51] Anne
    But today is a special day.
[15:53] Philippa
    The reception for the seniors. I know.
[15:57] Philippa
    Look.
[15:59] Philippa
    Jonas sent me some dear pink
    rosebuds for the evening.
[16:04] Philippa
    But he isn't coming himself.
[16:06] Philippa
    He said he had to lead a
    prayer meeting in the slums.
[16:12] Anne
    That's a shame.
[16:13] Philippa
    I don't believe he wanted to come.
[16:16] Philippa
    Perhaps Jonas doesn't really
    care anything about me.
[16:22] Anne
    Even though he sent you roses?
[16:24] Philippa
    I know, but I'm horribly afraid.
[16:27] Philippa
    And I'm trying to decide whether
    I'll pine away and die,
[16:31] Philippa
    or go on and get my B.A. and
    be sensible and useful.
[16:35] Anne
    You couldn't possibly
    be sensible and useful,
[16:39] Anne
    so you'd better pine away and die.
[16:41] Philippa
    Heartless Anne!
[16:42] Anne
    Silly Phil!
[16:44] Anne
    You know quite well that Jonas loves you.
[16:49] Philippa
    Yes, but he won't tell me so.
[16:52] Philippa
    Not that I expect sentimental rhymes.
[16:55] Anne
    Mr. Blake is afraid to ask you to marry him.
[16:58] Anne
    He is poor and can't offer you a
    home such as you've always had.
[17:06] Philippa
    Very well.
[17:07] Philippa
    If he won't ask me to
    marry him, I'll ask him.
[17:11] Philippa
    That's all.
[17:12] Philippa
    So it's bound to come right.
[17:14] Anne
    Think hard,
[17:15] Anne
    and be mindful of Mr. Blake's feelings.
[17:19] Philippa
    How angry I was when you
    refused Gilbert, Anne.
[17:25] Philippa
    But I was wrong.
[17:27] Philippa
    Roy Gardner was foreordained for you.
[17:31] Philippa
    I can see that now.
[17:33] Philippa
    You were right, after all.
[17:36] Philippa
    By the way, Gilbert Blythe is going
    about constantly with Christine Stuart.
[17:41] Philippa
    Did you know?
[17:42] Anne
    No. Who is Christine Stuart?
[17:44] Philippa
    She's in Kingsport this
    winter studying music.
[17:47] Philippa
    They say she's very pretty and that
    Gilbert is quite crazy over her.
[17:56] Jamesina
    Mr. Gardner, you're the nicest
    young man I ever did see.
[18:00] Roy
    Oh, I'm sure I'm not.
[18:02] Jamesina
    Anne is a very fortunate girl
    to have met you.
[18:08] Roy
    Anne.
[18:09] Roy
    You look radiant this evening.
[18:12] Anne
    Thank you.
[18:13] Roy
    That orchid looks lovely on you.
[18:25] Roy
    Anne.
[18:27] Roy
    We still have time.
[18:28] Roy
    Would you mind a slight detour?
[18:34] Roy
    We met here, at this very spot.
[18:37] Anne
    Yes. It was an awful squall.
[18:41] Anne
    But we've fine weather today.
[18:44] Roy
    Meeting you that day was the
    greatest event of my life.
[18:51] Anne
    And mine, Roy.
[18:53] Roy
    Anne, I want to tell you plainly.
[18:57] Roy
    I love you.
[19:00] Roy
    I'm infatuated with you.
[19:03] Roy
    I can't imagine life without you.
[19:07] Roy
    Would you...
[19:09] Roy
    be mine?
[19:23] Roy
    Anne...
[19:25] Roy
    Anne.
[19:28] Roy
    Forgive me. Did I startle you?
[19:31] Anne
    A little.
[19:32] Roy
    Then...
[19:34] Anne
    Yes.
[19:35] Anne
    Me, too.
[19:40] Anne
    The prince of my dreams just
    professed his love for me.
[19:44] Anne
    A touch forcefully, I admit.
[19:48] Anne
    I've paid a high price for this day,
[19:51] Anne
    waited so long to hear
    my prince say that he loves me.
[19:56] Anne
    But...
[19:57] Anne
    I didn't blush.
[20:00] Anne
    I didn't burst into tears.
[20:09] Roy
    They seem to be enjoying themselves.
[20:11] Anne
    Yes, they do.
[20:13] Gilbert
    You went to the concert the
    other day, didn't you?
[20:16] Christine
    Yes.
[20:17] Gilbert
    So, what did you think?
[20:19] Christine
    Oh, it was marvelous.
[20:26] Anne
    I'll just run to the dressing room.
[20:32] Anne
    What is the matter with me?
[20:34] Anne
    Something doesn't sit right.
[20:45] Roy
    Anne! Here I am.
[20:46] Anne
    Oh. Thank you for waiting.
[20:59] Gilbert
    Hello, Anne. How have you been?
[21:02] Anne
    W-Well.
[21:04] Anne
    It's been a while, hasn't it?
[21:06] Gilbert
    Roy sought us out and made a
    point to introduce himself.
[21:11] Roy
    I'd heard you were childhood friends.
[21:14] Gilbert
    Oh, I'll introduce you.
[21:16] Gilbert
    Meet Miss Christine Stuart, future musician.
[21:20] Christine
    It's so nice to meet you.
[21:22] Anne
    I'm Anne Shirley.
[21:23] Christine
    You're childhood friends?
[21:25] Gilbert
    We grew up on Prince Edward Island,
    in a village called Avonlea.
[21:25] Anne
    She looks just as I've
    always wanted to look.
[21:30] Anne
    Rose-leaf complexion—
    starry violet eyes—raven hair...
[21:36] Roy
    I know, Anne.
[21:39] Roy
    Why don't you show me around
    Avonlea one of these days?
[21:42] Roy
    And Gilbert, too, if he's willing.
[21:46] Gilbert
    Yes, of course, Roy.
[21:49] Christine
    Then I'll join you!
[21:51] Christine
    I'd like to see it, too, Gil.
[21:53] Christine
    Do you mind, Anne?
[21:55] Anne
    No, of course not, Christine.
[21:59] Anne
    But...
[22:00] Anne
    I don't believe her
    nose is as good as mine.

[00:02] Anne
    With the final examinations
    of our junior year before us,
[00:05] Anne
    we were studying hard.
[00:08] Philippa
    I'm going to take a scholarship in mathematics.
[00:12] Priscilla
    Mathematics will be a hurdle.
[00:15] Priscilla
    Don't you do better at Greek?
[00:18] Stella
    What do you even need
    a scholarship for? You're rich.
[00:22] Philippa
    I want to prove to Jonas that
    I'm really enormously clever.
[00:25] Anne
    Jonas will content himself with your
    big, brown eyes and your crooked smile.
[00:31] Jamesina
    Times have changed, I suppose.
[00:34] Jamesina
    Can you cook, Phil?
[00:38] Philippa
    No, I never cooked anything in my life
    except a gingerbread and it was a failure.
[00:44] Philippa
    But don't you think I could cook
    if I began in good earnest to learn?
[00:48] Jamesina
    I hope so.
[00:53] Anne
    It's from our landlady, Miss Patty.
[00:56] Anne
    She says that we can have
    Patty's Place for another year!
[01:00] Philippa; Priscilla; Stella
    Really?!
[01:02] Anne
    "Maria and I are going to run over Egypt."
[01:06] Anne
    "I want to see the Sphinx once before I die."
[01:10] Priscilla
    "Run over Egypt"!
[01:12] Priscilla
    I wonder if they'll look up
    at the Sphinx and knit.
[01:16] Stella
    In any case, we can live together another year.
[01:19] Priscilla
    Yes!
[01:20] Anne
    I'm so glad!
[01:22] Anne
    Aren't you, Phil?
[01:24] Anne
    Phil?
[01:29] Philippa
    I'm off for a tramp in the park.
[01:32] Philippa
    Anne, how about a break? Come with me.

    That People Have to Grow Up,

[03:19] Philippa
    I'd go home and write a poem
    this blessed minute if I only knew how.
[03:22] Philippa
    Anne, I'm the happiest girl in the world.
[03:27] Anne
    So Mr. Blake has asked you
    to marry him at last, Phil?
[03:32] Philippa
    And I sneezed three times
    while he was asking me.
[03:43] Philippa
    We're to be married a year from next June.
[03:46] Anne
    Oh, Phil, congratulations.
[03:48] Philippa
    I still can't really believe that
    Jonas cares for frivolous me.
[03:55] Anne
    You're not really frivolous.
[03:57] Anne
    I know underneath that frivolous exterior,
    you've got a dear, loyal little soul.
[04:06] Philippa
    Jonas graduates from St. Columba this spring,
[04:09] Philippa
    then he's going to take
    a mission church in the slums.
[04:12] Philippa
    But I'd go there or to
    Greenland's icy mountains with him.
[04:18] Anne
    And this is the girl who would
    never marry a man who wasn't rich.
[04:23] Philippa
    I shall be poor as gaily
    as I've been rich. You'll see.
[04:27] Philippa
    Anne.
[04:28] Philippa
    All Redmond knows that Roy is crazy about you.
[04:33] Philippa
    And you do love him, don't you?
[04:35] Anne
    I...
[04:40] Anne
    Yes, I suppose I do.
[04:45] Roy
    Dearest Anne,
[04:47] Roy
    Your smile, the light of many thousand stars.
[04:51] Roy
    Your clear voice, raindrops on the river's face.
[04:54] Roy
    Your warmth...
[04:58] Anne
    "...has lit forever my heart's fires."
[05:04] Anne
    My.
[05:05] Anne
    Not exactly up to the level
    of Keats or Shakespeare,
[05:07] Anne
    but I think it quite a fine love poem
    to send an odd duck like me.
[05:14] Anne
    Gilbert could never have
    written it, at any rate.
[05:21] Anne
    Gilbert has found a
    fine girl of his own to love,
[05:25] Anne
    Phil is engaged to Jonas,
[05:27] Anne
    and Diana has Fred.
[05:30] Anne
    Will Roy and I be married someday, too?
[05:34] Anne
    Well, Rusty?
[05:41] Roy
    Anne, as ever, your beauty dazzles me.
[05:47] Anne
    Oh, Roy, you make me blush.
[05:50] Anne
    And you're far handsomer than I am.
[05:56] Anne
    Christine!
[05:58] Christine
    Anne! And Roy, too!
[06:00] Christine
    It's so nice to see you again!
[06:02] Roy
    Oh, we met at the reception the other day.
[06:06] Roy
    You're Gilbert's...?
[06:08] Anne
    Yes, "Gilbert's..."
[06:10] Anne
    I haven't seen him lately. Is he well?
[06:13] Christine
    Yes. Gilbert took off today.
[06:17] Christine
    Oh, I'd love to stay and chat,
[06:19] Christine
    but I'm keeping a professor waiting.
[06:22] Anne
    Please, don't let us keep you.
[06:24] Christine
    I'll give Gilbert your best.
[06:26] Christine
    Good day!
[06:29] Anne
    Let's go.
[06:30] Roy
    Let's.
[06:32] Anne
    My junior year concluded,
[06:34] Anne
    and I returned to Avonlea for Diana's wedding.
[06:48] Diana
    Oh.
[06:49] Diana
    The top two are delicate.
    Be careful moving them.
[06:53] Servant
    Yes, ma'am.
[06:54] Diana
    I'm sorry, Anne.
    And after you've come all this way.
[06:58] Diana
    I'm simply frantic getting ready
    for the party and moving house.
[07:02] Anne
    It's all right.
[07:03] Anne
    Only...
[07:04] Anne
    I never dreamed the day I'd be your
    bridesmaid would come so soon.
[07:18] Diana
    Oh, Anne. I'll only be two miles away.
[07:23] Diana
    And I hear you've finally met your ideal man.
[07:27] Diana
    It's a shame about Gilbert,
[07:29] Diana
    but you know your mind best.
[07:32] Diana
    I'll give you my blessing.
[07:37] Davy
    The new teacher gave me
    ten sums to do for Monday.
[07:43] Davy
    If that's not mean, what is? I want to know.
[07:46] Lynde
    Davy, don't talk like that about your—
[07:51] Davy
    Anne!
[07:53] Dora
    Welcome home, Anne!
[07:55] Anne
    It's good to be home.
[07:56] Marilla
    Have you seen Diana?
[07:59] Anne
    Yes.
[08:00] Anne
    It seems so funny and horrible
    to think of Diana's being married.
[08:03] Lynde
    I don't see what's horrible about it.
[08:06] Lynde
    Fred Wright has a fine farm
    and he is a model young man.
[08:11] Anne
    Fred is extremely good.
[08:14] Lynde
    Then what—
[08:15] Marilla
    Would you want Diana to
    marry a wicked man instead?
[08:18] Marilla
    Or marry one yourself?
[08:22] Anne
    Oh, no.
[08:24] Anne
    But I think I'd like someone who
    could be wicked and wouldn't.
[08:32] Marilla
    You'll have more sense some day, I hope.
[08:35] Marilla
    Davy, come help me.
[08:38] Davy
    Aw, do I have to?
[08:40] Anne
    Is something the matter with Marilla?
[08:42] Lynde
    She's disappointed because
    she heard you refused Gilbert Blythe.
[08:48] Anne
    Who told her that?
[08:51] Dora
    Everyone in Avonlea knows it, Anne.
[09:00] Anne
    How did word get out?
[09:03] Anne
    Perhaps Charlie Sloane
    told his guesses for truth again.
[09:09] Anne
    Don't tell me Diana told Fred,
    and Fred let it slip!
[09:16] Anne
    Tell me, Matthew,
[09:17] Anne
    why does everyone want to
    see me married to Gilbert?
[09:22] Anne
    Why can't we stay the best of friends?
[09:27] Anne
    I only wanted to preserve our friendship.
[09:35] Lynde
    If she isn't marrying for money,
[09:37] Lynde
    and she likes this handsome
    Roy better than Gilbert,
[09:41] Lynde
    there's nothing more to be said. Still...
[09:45] Marilla
    Anne wouldn't be so mercenary.
[09:48] Marilla
    I have no fear on that account.
[09:51] Marilla
    Only...
[09:54] Marilla
    I can't help feeling that
    something has gone awry.
[10:04] Lynde
    Do you worry Anne will repeat your mistakes?
[10:10] Lynde
    Don't.
[10:11] Lynde
    What is to be, will be.
[10:20] Davy
    Anne's in, ain't she?!
[10:21] Lynde
    You scared me half to death!
[10:24] Lynde
    Another letter from Prince Charming?
[10:26] Davy
    No!
[10:27] Dora
    I'll give it to her!
[10:41] Anne
    Diana, a handsome prince at Redmond
[10:45] Anne
    sends me love letters
    and flowers two times a week.
[10:50] Anne
    Can you believe it?
[10:53] Davy
    Anne!
[10:55] Davy
    You got this from Gilbert!
[10:57] Anne
    Gilbert?
[11:05] Dora
    What does he say?
[11:07] Anne
    It's... a copy of some college society report.
[11:13] Davy
    What?
[11:14] Davy
    What did Gilbert want to send
    a dull, old thing like that for?
[11:19] Dora
    Davy.
[11:21] Dora
    Come on.
[11:21] Davy
    Huh? Hey, where are we going?
[11:34] Anne
    Dearest Roy,
[11:37] Anne
    How empty and barren
    are my days without you.
[11:42] Anne
    Once my bosom friend
    Diana is safely married,
[11:46] Anne
    I shall return to Redmond,
    even if I must swim the channel.
[11:51] Anne
    Yours truly, Anne.
[12:07] Anne
    Diana...
[12:12] Anne
    Oh, how horrible it is
    that people have to grow up,
[12:17] Anne
    and marry, and change!
[12:55] Anne
    After all, the only real roses
    are the pink ones.
[12:57] Anne
    They are the flowers of love and faith.
[13:04] Anne
    It's all pretty much as
    I used to imagine it long ago,
[13:08] Anne
    when I wept over your inevitable marriage
    and our consequent parting.
[13:16] Anne
    You are the bride of my dreams.
[13:22] Anne
    And I am your bridesmaid.
[13:25] Anne
    But I haven't the puffed sleeves,
    nor do I exactly hate Fred.
[13:32] Diana
    We are not really parting, Anne.
[13:36] Diana
    We've always kept that "oath" of friendship
    we swore long ago, haven't we?
[13:43] Diana
    We'll love each other just as much as ever.
[13:46] Anne
    But things can't be quite the same after this.
    You'll have other interests.
[13:53] Anne
    I'll be a distant second or third to you.
[13:58] Diana
    The mean thing about your getting married
[14:01] Diana
    is that I won't be able to be your bridesmaid.
[14:05] Anne
    You know the proverb,
[14:07] Anne
    "three times a bridesmaid, never a bride."
[14:09] Anne
    I'm to be Phil's next, and then I must stop.
[14:22] Anne
    Here comes the minister!
[14:25] Diana
    Oh, Anne, what shall I do? I'm...
[14:28] Diana
    I'm so nervous.
[14:30] Diana
    I know I'm going to faint.
[14:33] Anne
    If you do, I'll drag you down to the
    rainwater hogshead and drop you in.
[14:39] Anne
    Getting married can't be so very terrible
    when so many people survive the ceremony.
[14:45] Diana
    Wait till your turn comes, Miss Anne.
[14:51] Anne
    You look just lovely, Diana.
[14:54] Anne
    Kiss me goodbye for the last time.
[14:56] Anne
    Diana Barry will never kiss me again.
[15:03] Diana
    Diana Wright will, though.
[15:22] Anne
    Gilbert?
[15:24] Gilbert
    Anne.
[15:25] Gilbert
    Oh, Fred asked me to be his best man.
[15:29] Anne
    Diana...
[15:31] Gilbert
    I only just arrived.
[15:34] Anne
    Oh. I'm glad you made it in time.
[15:54] Gilbert
    It's tradition.
[16:09] Davy
    Anne!
[16:10] Charlie
    Gilbert!
[16:11] Gilbert
    Hello, Charlie.
[16:12] Lynde
    What a fine-looking pair they are.
[16:53] Anne
    The wedding began.
[16:56] Anne
    Diana did not faint, and nothing untoward
    occurred to interrupt the ceremony.
[17:21] Anne
    The merrymaking that followed
    was awash in dear, familiar faces.
[17:30] All
    Cheers!
[17:32] All
    To Diana and Fred!
[17:36] Josie
    Gilbert, I hear Anne jilted you again.
[17:40] Josie
    You never learn your lesson.
[17:42] Anne
    W-Wait! Josie?!
[17:44] Josie
    Why, everyone knows it.
[17:47] Anne
    But even so...
[17:51] Moody
    Another toast, then!
[17:54] Jane
    To poor Gilbert!
[17:56] Anne
    Jane?!
[17:57] All but Anne
    To poor Gilbert!
[18:00] Anne
    Really!
[18:02] All
    Cheers!
[18:04] Moody
    Again!
[18:05] Anne
    Oh, no! Moody, are you drunk?!
[18:08] Moody
    Me, drunk? Not a bit of it!
[18:08] Fred
    Diana?
[18:12] Marilla
    Anne, we'll excuse ourselves now.
[18:16] Anne
    I understand, Marilla.
[18:23] Dora
    Till next time, Gilbert!
[18:26] Gilbert
    Yes, till next time.
[18:29] Davy
    Bye-bye!
[18:35] Gilbert
    Congratulations! Be happy!
[18:39] Fred
    Thank you! Thank you!
[18:41] Diana
    Thank you all so much for coming!
[18:43] Diana
    We'll have wonderful memories to look back on!
[18:51] Moody
    Fred! Don't fall off the cart!
[18:54] Fred
    I've got it in hand!
[18:58] All
    Congratulations! Be happy!
[19:02] Anne
    Diana! Diana!
[19:05] Diana
    Thank you all!
[19:07] Diana
    Thank you, Anne!
[19:10] Anne
    Diana...
[19:41] Gilbert
    Fred told me he was so nervous
    he couldn't sleep a wink last night.
[19:49] Anne
    His face was so red, I thought he'd gotten
    drunk before the ceremony even started!
[19:55] Gilbert
    So did I!
[19:58] Anne
    Thank goodness.
[20:01] Anne
    Oh, nothing.
[20:08] Gilbert
    There are the skies of Avonlea.
[20:10] Anne
    Yes.
[20:12] Gilbert
    Anne?
[20:14] Gilbert
    Can we take a ramble to sober up?
[20:17] Anne
    Good idea.
[20:19] Anne
    Marilla and Mrs. Lynde will be shocked
    if I go home with my face all red.
[20:26] Anne
    I have Roy, and Gilbert has Christine.
[20:30] Anne
    How funny. It's thanks to Christine
    that I can be with Gilbert.
[20:37] Gilbert
    Are you going to be in Avonlea all summer?
[20:40] Anne
    No. I'm going to a school
    down east next week.
[20:44] Anne
    They want me to substitute.
[20:47] Gilbert
    And waste your summer break?
[20:49] Anne
    Yes, but in a way I don't mind.
[20:55] Anne
    I don't understand it myself.
[20:57] Anne
    I used to think nowhere on earth
    could be as lovely as Avonlea,
[21:01] Anne
    but I'm beginning to feel like a stranger here.
[21:05] Anne
    It makes me sorry, but it's true.
[21:08] Anne
    It's quite appalling to see
    the number of children
[21:12] Anne
    who have shot up
    these past three years.
[21:14] Anne
    Half of my pupils are grown up.
[21:18] Anne
    It's a wonderful thing,
[21:20] Anne
    but it makes me feel awfully old to see them
[21:26] Anne
    in the places you and I
    and our mates used to fill.
[21:33] Anne
    That's what made today such fun.
[21:36] Anne
    It was like we had all gone back
    to those days together.
[21:42] Anne
    It was so...
[21:44] Gilbert
    "So wags the world away."
[21:47] Anne
    Gilbert?
[21:51] Gilbert
    You'll find somewhere new, Anne.
[21:59] Gilbert
    Somewhere worthy of you.

[00:01] Anne
    My last year at Redmond has begun.
[00:05] Anne
    We fought for graduation honors,
[00:08] Anne
    poring over classics
[00:10] Anne
    and pounding away at mathematics.
[00:13] Anne
    Sometimes we grew tired.
    Sometimes we felt discouraged.
[00:21] Anne
    Come in.
[00:22] Stella
    Oh, I've had enough!
[00:26] Stella
    Nothing seems worthwhile.
[00:31] Stella
    What are you laughing over?
[00:33] Anne
    Just looking over some old Story Club yarns.
[00:38] Anne
    I wanted some relief,
    so I dug these out of my trunk.
[00:42] Anne
    They are so drenched in tears and tragedy
    that they are excruciatingly funny.
[00:47] Stella
    I'm blue and discouraged myself.
[00:52] Stella
    But there's nothing funny about it.
[00:54] Stella
    What is the use of living after all, Anne?
[00:59] Anne
    You should read this.
[01:04] Stella
    "My Graves"?
[01:06] Anne
    My masterpiece.
[01:07] Anne
    Mr. Harrison would say it's about people
    I don't know in places I know no better.
[01:14] Anne
    Phil would say it's killing—
    in more sense than one,
[01:19] Anne
    for nobody in it can escape being murdered
    or else dying of a broken heart.
[01:28] Anne
    Doesn't it make you laugh?
[01:30] Anne
    I'm sure I wanted to wax sentimental.
[01:33] Anne
    Although I was surrounded by dear
    things whether I shed tears or not.
[01:38] Anne
    I see that now.
[01:44] Anne
    What's this?
[01:47] Anne
    Oh, yes. I remember.
[01:49] Anne
    It's a little dialogue in a garden
    blooming with asters and sweet-peas,
[01:53] Anne
    between a visiting wild canary and
    the guardian spirit of the place.
[01:58] Anne
    I recall the day I wrote it.
[02:01] Anne
    I fell through the roof of the
    Cobb duck house on Tory Road.
[02:10] Anne
    Marilla scolded me something fierce.
[02:21] Anne
    I believe I will.

[03:58] Philippa
    Thank you.
[04:01] Philippa
    Three for Stella.
[04:04] Philippa
    Two for Prissy.
[04:05] Priscilla
    Thank you.
[04:07] Philippa
    Here is a letter with an Indian
    stamp for you, Aunt Jimsie.
[04:13] Priscilla
    Who could be writing from India?
[04:16] Stella
    One of Auntie's three devotees, no doubt.
[04:21] Philippa
    There's nothing for you,
    Anne, except a circular.
[04:25] Philippa
    And this glorious fat one
    is for me from Jonas.
[04:31] Philippa
    Honey, what good thing has happened?
[04:34] Anne
    The Youth's Friend has accepted a little
    sketch I sent them a fortnight ago!
[04:41] Philippa
    Anne Shirley!
[04:42] Philippa
    When is it to be published?
    Did they pay you for it?
[04:45] Anne
    They've sent a check for ten dollars,
[04:48] Anne
    and the editor writes that he would
    like to see more of my work.
[04:52] Philippa
    What was it?
[04:54] Anne
    It was an old sketch set in Avonlea.
[04:58] Anne
    I rewrote it and sent it in, but I never
    really thought it could be accepted,
[05:04] Anne
    because it had no tragedy,
    romance, or even a plot.
[05:07] Philippa
    What are you going to do
    with that ten dollars?
[05:10] Philippa
    Let's all go up town and get drunk!
[05:13] Stella
    Oh, Phil.
[05:15] Priscilla
    Think of having a real live
    author at Patty's Place!
[05:18] Jamesina
    It's a great responsibility.
[05:21] Priscilla
    Indeed it is.
[05:23] Priscilla
    Authors are kittle cattle. You never
    know when or how they will break out.
[05:26] Stella
    Yes.
[05:27] Stella
    Anne may make copy of us.
[05:30] Philippa; Priscilla
    Oh, what a horrible thought!
[05:32] Anne
    I would never.
[05:35] Jamesina
    I meant that the ability to write for
    the Press was a great responsibility.
[05:46] Roy
    That's marvelous.
[05:47] Anne
    But I've only had short pieces accepted yet.
[05:52] Roy
    I believe you have a God-given talent.
[05:57] Anne
    I don't know about that,
    but I mean to continue.
[06:01] Anne
    I'd like to write better stories.
[06:04] Roy
    I'm behind you.
[06:05] Roy
    I know you could become a great author.
[06:09] Anne
    Thank you.
[06:14] Anne
    Look at them mooning.
[06:17] Roy
    By the way, shall you be
    home Saturday afternoon?
[06:20] Anne
    Y-Yes.
[06:22] Roy
    My mother and sisters are
    coming to call on you.
[06:26] Anne
    What?!
[06:27] Roy
    I'm sorry to spring this on you.
[06:29] Anne
    N-No,
[06:31] Anne
    I shall be glad to see them.
[06:35] Philippa
    Roy's mother is coming herself?
[06:38] Philippa
    Well, I suppose it was inevitable.
[06:40] Philippa
    Anyway, she must view you as a
    possible member of the clan.
[06:46] Philippa
    You'll be weighed in the balance, Anne.
[06:50] Stella
    Phil, is that any way to put it?
[06:53] Anne
    It's all right.
[06:54] Anne
    I shall not try to make a good impression.
[06:58] Anne
    I shall just be myself.
[07:05] Anne
    Tomorrow is Saturday.
[07:06] Anne
    What shall I wear to meet them?
[07:09] Stella
    This is Roy's mother, remember.
    You'd better dress good and proper.
[07:13] Anne
    You're probably right.
[07:15] Jamesina
    Stella, tidy up a bit.
[07:18] Jamesina
    The place looks a mess.
[07:19] Stella
    I can't help it.
[07:21] Stella
    I can't write so much as one
    page of a report any other way.
[07:25] Anne
    Should I do my hair up high, do you think?
[07:29] Priscilla
    There! That's the chocolate cake done!
[07:33] Jamesina
    My, but that does look good.
[07:36] Priscilla
    Come on, Anne.
    Stop brooding and come to tea.
[07:40] Anne
    All right.
[07:43] Philippa
    That smells divine.
[07:44] Priscilla
    Doesn't it?
[07:50] Priscilla
    And here I spent half a day baking it!
[07:54] Philippa
    Don't worry. It's still edible.
[07:57] Philippa
    Anne, get a dishcloth from the kitchen.
[08:00] Anne
    All right.
[08:05] Philippa
    Would you answer that, Stella?
[08:08] Philippa
    It must be the new hat I ordered.
[08:11] Stella
    Then you answer it.
[08:13] Stella
    I'm at an important part.
[08:19] Philippa
    Oh, fine, then.
[08:21] Philippa
    Thank you for—
[08:23] Gardner
    Is this Patty's Place?
[08:27] Philippa
    Yes.
[08:28] Gardner
    My name is Gardner.
[08:31] Philippa
    M-Mrs. Gardner?
[08:33] Gardner
    Is Miss Anne Shirley at home?
[08:36] Philippa
    J-Just one moment.
[08:38] Philippa
    W-We have an emergency!
    It's Mrs. Gardner.
[08:41] Anne; Priscilla; Stella
    What?!
[08:42] Priscilla
    Wasn't she coming tomorrow?!
[08:43] Anne
    Mrs. Gardner?!
[08:44] Philippa
    Don't ask me!
[08:45] Philippa
    Anyway, she's here now!
[08:47] Philippa
    Anne, hurry and change clothes.
[08:48] Philippa
    Stella, tidy up that mess!
[08:52] Priscilla
    What about the cake?
[08:55] Philippa
    Throw that dishcloth over it for now!
[09:01] Philippa
    Hello. So sorry to keep you waiting.
[09:05] Philippa
    My name is Philippa Gordon.
[09:09] Philippa
    I'm Anne Shirley's classmate.
[09:11] Philippa
    Roy has always been very kind to me.
[09:16] Gardner
    Well?
[09:18] Gardner
    Is Miss Anne Shirley at home?
[09:21] Philippa
    Yes, she'll be with us in a moment.
[09:23] Philippa
    Wh-Why, here she comes now!
[09:27] Anne
    I-It's a pleasure to meet you.

    I'm Anne Shirley.
[09:32] Anne
    Welcome to Patty's Place.
[09:36] Gardner
    These are my daughters,
    Aline and Dorothy.
[09:39] Dorothy
    Pleased to meet you.

[10:04] Gardner
    fond of cats?
[10:06] Anne
    Well, yes.
[10:08] Gardner
    I have never liked cats.
[10:12] Anne
    Y-You don't say.
[10:15] Dorothy
    I love them!
[10:17] Dorothy
    They are so nice and selfish.
[10:21] Dorothy
    Dogs are too good and unselfish.
[10:24] Dorothy
    But cats are gloriously human.
[10:27] Gardner
    You hold your tongue.
[10:29] Aline
    You have two delightful
    old china dogs there.
[10:34] Aline
    May I look at them closely?
[10:37] Anne
    Yes, go ahead.
[10:39] Aline
    What breed of dogs are they, I wonder.
[10:42] Anne
    I c-couldn't say.
[10:50] Aline
    Here, now!
[10:51] Aline
    Stop that!
[10:55] Dorothy
    Aline! Are you hurt?
[10:58] Aline
    Really, is it any wonder I detest cats?!
[11:02] Gardner
    Tell me, Miss Shirley.
[11:04] Anne
    Y-Yes?
[11:05] Gardner
    What are your intentions concerning my son?
[11:10] Gardner
    If—
[11:12] Dorothy
    My.
[11:16] Gardner
    Well then, if you will excuse us.
[11:19] Anne
    Please, take care.
[11:27] Dorothy
    Anne!
[11:29] Dorothy
    Roy has told me all about you.
[11:32] Dorothy
    I'm the only one of the
    family he tells things to.
[11:37] Dorothy
    Nobody could confide in
    mamma and Aline, you know.
[11:41] Dorothy
    I know you and I are going to be chums.
[11:47] Anne
    Yes. Thank you, Dorothy.
[11:51] Dorothy
    What glorious times you
    girls must have here!
[11:54] Dorothy
    Won't you let me come often
    and have a share in them?
[11:58] Anne
    Of course.
[12:00] Anne
    Come as often as you like.
[12:04] Jamesina
    People who send word they are coming
    on Saturday shouldn't come on Friday.
[12:09] Philippa
    Where is Anne?
[12:10] Stella
    Upstairs.
[12:12] Anne
    Dorothy...
[12:13] Anne
    is a really cheerful dear.
[12:16] Anne
    Aline...
[12:17] Anne
    will never like me. That much is certain.
[12:20] Anne
    And Mrs. Gardner...
[12:24] Anne
    Still, Rusty and Joseph,
    what a welcome you gave them.
[12:45] Roy
    How were your examinations?
[12:47] Anne
    I've done all that I can.
[12:49] Anne
    All that remains is to
    await the results.
[12:51] Roy
    Don't worry. I know you'll do well.
[12:55] Anne
    Thank you.
[12:56] Roy
    I can see it now.
[13:01] Roy
    If it's about the visit, I told
    you it was to be Saturday.
[13:06] Dorothy
    I said the same thing, but
    mother insisted it was Friday.
[13:11] Gardner
    You always make out that I am to blame.
[13:14] Gardner
    I suppose you resent me for making
    you accompany me to Europe.
[13:20] Roy
    Of course not.
[13:23] Gardner
    Oh, I do not feel well.
[13:26] Gardner
    I fear that I may take ill again.
[13:30] Anne
    Um...
[13:31] Anne
    I'm sorry that we weren't able to show
    you much hospitality the other day.
[13:36] Anne
    And the cats were too awful.
[13:39] Anne
    But I'm glad that you came on Friday.
[13:44] Anne
    If I had waited for you all until Saturday,
[13:47] Anne
    I know my heart would have been
    crushed under the strain.
[13:53] Anne
    Your coming rescued it.
[13:56] Anne
    Thank you.
[14:00] Roy
    Mother...
[14:01] Roy
    has been especially sensitive about
    many things since her illness.
[14:05] Roy
    She must have given you an awful time.
[14:08] Anne
    No, I hope you'll all come again,
    if you can bear it.
[14:15] Anne
    Roy really is like a prince in a story.
[14:19] Anne
    Gilbert never could be.
[14:24] Anne
    So why do I...
[14:28] Anne
    A few days later,
    the examination results were posted.
[14:31] Anne; Philippa; Priscilla; Stella
    Done at last!
[14:32] Anne
    Prissy took Honors in Classics,
    and Phil in Mathematics.
[14:36] Anne
    Stella obtained a good all-round showing.
[14:39] Anne
    I managed to take Highest Honors in English.
[14:44] Priscilla
    Do you realize that our life
    together is almost over?
[14:48] Stella
    Yes.
[14:49] Philippa
    We can always get together.
[14:51] Anne
    Yes. Let's look on the
    bright side of things.
[14:54] Priscilla
    It won't be so easy.
[14:55] Priscilla
    Phil will be Mrs. Blake once she graduates.
[14:58] Stella
    She'll be a minister's wife,
[15:00] Stella
    far too busy to spare time for us.
[15:04] Philippa
    Yes. I'll be a little candlestick
    to light Jonas's way.
[15:10] Priscilla
    And Roy will propose soon, won't he, Anne?
[15:13] Anne
    Will he? I wonder.
[15:15] Priscilla
    No doubt of it!
[15:17] Priscilla
    It will be rather lonesome.
[15:18] Philippa
    What are you moping for?
[15:21] Anne
    And the morning of Convocation...
[15:24] Anne
    Yes?
[15:26] Jamesina
    Good morning, Anne.
[15:28] Jamesina
    Delivery for you.
[15:33] Roy
    Dearest Anne,
[15:34] Roy
    No doubt your brilliance will*
    dazzle my eyes on graduation day.
[15:39] Roy
    Royal Gardner.
[15:54] Roy
    That concludes my address.
[15:56] Roy
    Thank you all for listening.
[15:58] Roy
    I am Royal Gardner,
    speaking for the graduating class.
[16:05] Chancellor
    We anticipate your accomplishments.
[16:07] Female Student
    Thank you, sir.
[16:12] Chancellor
    Congratulations. We are proud of you,
[16:16] Chancellor
    Anne Shirley.
[16:17] Anne
    Thank you, sir.
[16:28] Philippa
    Gilbert sent you those
    lilies-of-the-valley, didn't he?
[16:32] Philippa
    I don't miss much in affairs of the heart.
[16:35] Anne
    Yes.
[16:36] Philippa
    Why?
[16:37] Anne
    I don't know myself. Only...
[16:40] Philippa
    Only what?
[16:41] Anne
    Gilbert and I have both pictured
    this since we were little.
[16:46] Anne
    The day on which we shall be capped
    and gowned graduates in Arts.
[16:51] Philippa
    Roy might be feeling hurt.
[16:54] Anne
    I'll explain it to him.
[16:56] Anne
    I don't want any misunderstands,
    and I plan to wear his flowers to the party.
[17:00] Philippa
    Yes, do that.
[17:03] Philippa
    I don't know what Gilbert
    was thinking, either.
[17:05] Anne
    Why?
[17:06] Philippa
    I heard his engagement to Christine is to be
    announced as soon as Convocation is over.
[17:10] Philippa
    Did you hear anything of it?
[17:12] Anne
    No.
[17:21] Gilbert
    Anne.
[17:23] Gilbert
    May I have a dance?
[17:27] Anne
    I'm sorry.
[17:28] Anne
    My card is full.
[17:31] Gilbert
    Well, that's that.
[17:33] Gilbert
    Some other time, then.
[17:35] Anne
    Yes.
[17:37] Gilbert
    Congratulations again on graduating.
    And on Highest Honors in English.
[17:41] Anne
    Thank you.
[17:43] Anne
    And you took High Honors in
    Classics and the Cooper Prize.
[17:47] Anne
    It hasn't been taken for five years!
[17:52] Gilbert
    Thank you.
[17:53] Gilbert
    Well then...
[17:56] Christine
    Gil, let's dance.
[17:57] Gilbert
    I'd love to.
[18:00] Roy
    Anne.
[18:02] Anne
    Roy.
[18:09] Anne
    You're angry, aren't you?
[18:11] Roy
    No, but I was surprised.
[18:14] Anne
    I'm sorry.
[18:15] Roy
    I never knew I was such a jealous person.
[18:21] Roy
    I'm frightened.
[18:23] Roy
    When I think of losing you...
[18:30] Anne
    The party went on late into the night,
[18:33] Anne
    but Gilbert and Christine's
    engagement was never announced.
[18:41] Anne
    Just imagine, this night week,
     I'll be in Avonlea.
[18:45] Anne
    Delightful thought!
[18:48] Anne
    But I'll be gone forever
    from Patty's Place, too.
[18:53] Philippa
    I wonder if the ghost of all our laughter
[18:55] Philippa
    will echo through the maiden dreams
    of Miss Patty and Miss Maria.
[18:58] Anne
    What nice times we've had here!
[19:03] Anne
    What chats and jokes and
    good, chummy jamborees!
[19:07] Philippa
    I'm to marry Jo in June and I know
    I will be rapturously happy.
[19:14] Philippa
    But just now I feel as if I wanted this
    lovely Redmond life to go on forever.
[19:21] Anne
    No matter what deeper joys
    may come to us later on
[19:24] Anne
    we'll never again have
    just the same delightful,
[19:28] Anne
    irresponsible existence we've had here.
[19:30] Anne
    It's over forever, Phil.
[19:37] Philippa
    What are you going to do with Rusty?
[19:39] Anne
    Aunt Jamesina says she'll take
    him with the other cats.
[19:44] Anne
    I'm sorry to part with Rusty,
[19:47] Anne
    but Marilla detests cats, and I don't
    suppose I'll be at Green Gables very long.
[19:54] Philippa
    Why not?
[19:55] Anne
    I've been offered the principalship
    of the Summerside High School.
[19:59] Philippa
    My! Are you going to accept it?
[20:02] Anne
    I... I haven't decided yet.
[20:08] Philippa
    What a lovely sky.
[20:10] Philippa
    Someone will ask you to go for
    a walk on an evening like this.
[20:14] Anne
    I wonder.
[20:17] Priscilla
    Anne, Roy is here.
[20:20] Priscilla
    He wants to know if you'll walk with him.
[20:25] Priscilla
    Do you think Roy will propose?
[20:28] Philippa
    I'm sure of it.
[20:29] Jamesina
    Anne is a very fortunate girl.
[20:32] Stella
    I suppose so. But is this for the best?
[20:36] Jamesina
    Stella?!
[20:37] Stella
    I love Anne and I like Roy.
[20:41] Stella
    Even Mrs. Gardner thinks Anne charming now.
[20:46] Stella
    But I have my doubts.
[20:51] Anne
    Yes.
[20:54] Anne
    Yes.
[20:57] Anne
    Yes.
[21:10] Roy
    Anne,
[21:12] Roy
    I couldn't be more thankful to have met you
    and spent my time at Redmond with you.
[21:20] Roy
    And I want to be with you always,
    until death takes me.
[21:26] Roy
    Anne,
[21:27] Roy
    would you accept my love
    and consent to marry me?
[21:43] Roy
    Anne?
[21:51] Anne
    I can't.
[21:52] Anne
    I can't marry you.
[21:59] Anne
    I can't!

    I can't!

    Why can't you?
[00:31] Anne
    Because—I don't care enough for you.
[00:36] Roy
    So you've just been amusing yourself?
[00:38] Anne
    No, no, I haven't.
[00:41] Anne
    I did think I cared. Truly I did.

[03:23] Philippa
    How did it go?
[03:28] Anne
    Wait. Wait till you hear what I have to say.
[03:35] Anne
    Roy asked me to marry him.
[03:38] Anne
    And I refused.
[03:42] Philippa
    Y-You refused him?
[03:45] Anne
    Oh, Phil, don't scold me.
    You don't understand.
[03:51] Philippa
    I certainly don't understand.
[03:53] Philippa
    You've encouraged Roy in
    every way all this time,
[03:55] Philippa
    and now you tell me you've refused him.
[03:58] Philippa
    Then you've just been flirting
    scandalously with him.
[04:01] Philippa
    I couldn't have believed it of you.
[04:03] Anne
    I didn't! You don't understand!
[04:05] Philippa
    Then, why?
[04:06] Anne
    Oh, I can't explain it to you
    any more than I could to him.
[04:11] Philippa
    Well, I suppose there is no use
    in saying anything to you.
[04:14] Anne
    No, there is no need.
    I've spoiled everything.
[04:20] Anne
    Roy despises me, and you despise me,
[04:24] Anne
    and I despise myself.
[04:28] Philippa
    You poor darling.
[04:30] Philippa
    Forgive me, Anne.
[04:32] Philippa
    Just come here and let me comfort you.
[04:37] Philippa
    I've no right to scold you.
[04:40] Philippa
    Oh, why must things be so
     complicated and mixed up in real life?
[04:50] Dorothy
    Roy is feeling terribly just now.
[04:55] Dorothy
    I have to listen to his
    outpourings every day.
[05:02] Dorothy
    But he'll get over it.
[05:04] Dorothy
    He always does.
[05:07] Dorothy
    He's had to give up on love twice before.
[05:11] Dorothy
    And he got back on his feet.
[05:13] (Flashback) Roy
    You are the only woman I can ever love.
[05:18] Dorothy
    So I don't think you need worry.
[05:21] Dorothy
    I did want you for a sister, but this
    won't spoil our friendship, will it?
[05:27] Anne
    No, indeed not, Dorothy.
[05:29] Dorothy
    Oh, good! I'll write to you.
[05:32] Dorothy
    Remind me. Your family home is...
[05:34] Anne
    In Avonlea on Prince Edward Island.
[05:38] Anne
    It's called Green Gables.
[05:50] Marilla
    Anne! You're home.
[05:51] Anne
    What has happened to the
    old Snow Queen, Marilla?
[05:54] Marilla
    Oh, it was rotten at the core.
[05:58] Marilla
    It blew down in the big
    gale we had in March.
[06:02] Marilla
    That tree was there ever since
    Matthew and I were young.
[06:10] Anne
    I'll never look from the porch gable
    window again without a sense of loss.
[06:17] Anne
    Well, tell me all the Avonlea news.
[06:22] Lynde
    There isn't much news except
    what we've wrote you.
[06:27] Marilla
    Rachel, have you told Anne
    the news about Jane?
[06:31] Anne
    What's happened to Jane?
[06:33] Lynde
    Jane Andrews is going to be married
    to a Winnipeg millionaire.
[06:39] Anne
    Dear old Jane! I'm so glad.
[06:44] Anne
    She deserves the good things of life.
[06:48] Lynde
    Oh, Jane's a nice enough girl.
[06:51] Lynde
    But she isn't in the millionaire class.
[06:56] Lynde
    Her engagement ring is a
    diamond cluster so big
[06:59] Lynde
    that it looks like a plaster
    on Jane's fat paw.
[07:04] Anne
    I think you're being unkind.
[07:06] Lynde
    Am I, now?
[07:09] Marilla
    Rachel minds that you're not
    spoken for by anyone yet.
[07:15] Anne
    My just desserts.
    I've ruined every chance I had.
[07:19] Marilla
    You mean that fellow Roy?
[07:23] Anne
    Yes. I'm going to face the
    punishment for what I've done.
[07:28] Marilla
    You tormenting yourself
    won't do anybody any good.
[07:32] Marilla
    What has Gilbert Blythe been
    doing to himself at college?
[07:35] Marilla
    I saw him when he came home last week,
[07:38] Marilla
    and he is so pale and
    thin I hardly knew him.
[07:43] Anne
    He studied very hard last winter.
[07:45] Anne
    He's going to start the
    medical course at Redmond,
[07:49] Anne
    so I think he's rather run down.
[07:52] Anne
    You know he took the Cooper Prize.
[07:56] Anne
    It hasn't been taken for five years!
[07:58] Lynde
    And you took Highest Honors in English.
[08:02] Lynde
    Jane Andrews could never have managed that.
[08:05] Anne
    Mrs. Lynde!
[08:07] Anne
    How is Diana?
[08:09] Anne
    It is lonely coming home without
    her here to welcome me.
[08:13] Marilla
    Diana has something else
    to think of just now.
[08:17] Marilla
    You must have heard.
[08:19] Marilla
    Why don't you go and see her yourself?
[08:22] Anne
    My! Isn't he delightful!
[08:25] Diana
    Look! Anne's come home.
[08:28] Anne
    He looks just like Fred!
[08:29] Diana
    Before he came, I wanted a girl,
    so that I could call her Anne.
[08:35] Diana
    But now that little Fred is here, I wouldn't
    exchange him for a million girls.
[08:42] Mrs. Allan
    "Every little baby is the
    sweetest and the best."
[08:46] Mrs. Allan
    If little Anne had come, you'd have
    felt just the same about her.
[08:53] Diana
    Yes, Mrs. Allan, you're exactly right.
[08:56] Diana
    I can hardly wait till he
    gets old enough to talk.
[09:02] Diana
    I just long to hear him say
    "mother" with a smile.
[09:09] Minister
    ...in sickness and in health...
[09:11] Philippa
    Mother thinks it's terrible.
[09:13] Minister
    ...in good times and in bad...
[09:14] Philippa
    She thinks Jo might at least take
    a church in a decent place.
[09:20] Philippa
    But the wilderness of the Patterson slums
[09:30] Philippa
    will blossom like the rose
    for me if Jo is there.
[09:34] Philippa
    Oh, Anne,
[09:38] Philippa
    I'm so happy my heart aches with it.
[09:44] Anne
    I'm surrounded by happiness, Matthew.
[09:50] Anne
    Yes, of course, Matthew.
[09:53] Anne
    I'm happy, too.
[10:03] Anne
    "I've tried the world—it wears no more"
[10:07] Anne
    "The colouring of romance it wore."
[10:12] Marilla
    See here, Davy. Not a word to Anne about—
[10:16] Anne
    I'm back!
[10:18] Marilla
    Oh, Anne. You're home.
[10:20] Davy
    It's good to see you again.
[10:21] Lynde
    Come in.
[10:23] Dora
    Welcome home, Anne.
[10:25] Marilla
    I see you're drenched.
[10:27] Lynde
    How was the wedding?
[10:29] Anne
    Oh, Phil was radiant.
[10:32] Anne
    Everyone was so nice, I stayed
    longer than I meant to.
[10:36] Anne
    "East, west, home's best."
[10:40] Anne
    Davy, have you been growing again lately?
[10:43] Davy
    Yeah. I've growed a whole
    inch since you left.
[10:47] Davy
    I'm as tall as Milty Boulter now.
[10:51] Davy
    Say, Anne, did you know that
    Gilbert Blythe is dying?
[10:57] Marilla
    Davy!
[11:10] Anne
    Gilbert is... what?
[11:13] Davy
    Like I said, he's dying.
[11:17] Marilla
    Davy!
[11:17] Lynde
    Anne, don't look like that—
    don't look like that!
[11:21] Marilla
    We didn't mean to tell you so suddenly.
[11:26] Anne
    Is it true?
[11:27] Marilla
    Gilbert is very ill.
[11:30] Marilla
    He took down with typhoid fever
    just after you left for Bolingbroke.
[11:35] Marilla
    The doctor said he'd been terribly run down.
[11:39] Marilla
    But while there's life, there's hope.
[11:42] Davy
    Mr. Harrison said they had no hope of him.
[11:46] Marilla
    Davy!
[11:47] Davy
    Well he did!
[11:53] Anne
    Gilbert is dying.
[11:56] Anne
    Gilbert is...
[11:58] Anne
    If Gilbert goes away from me,
    I cannot live, either.
[12:03] Anne
    Yes, I know now.
[12:05] Anne
    I... I...
[12:21] Anne
    You're not...
[12:23] Anne
    who I want.
[12:24] Ideal Man
    You've always loved Gilbert, haven't you?
[12:29] Ideal Man
    Since you were children.
[12:33] Ideal Man
    It's too late now.
[12:35] Ideal Man
    If you hadn't been so foolish, you
    would have the right to go to him now.
[12:43] Ideal Man
    You could have had the bitter solace
[12:47] Ideal Man
    of being with him at the last.
[12:52] Ideal Man
    But Gilbert will leave this life
    never knowing that you loved him.
[12:58] Ideal Man
    Sad, despondent, thinking you never cared.
[13:00] Anne
    No!
[13:03] Anne
    No! No!
[13:05] Anne
    I love him!
[13:07] Anne
    I love... I love Gilbert!
[13:10] Anne
    I do love him! I do!
[13:14] Anne
    So please...
[13:16] Anne
    don't take him from me.
[14:02] (Flashback) Ideal Man
    Gilbert will leave this life
    never knowing that you loved him.
[14:11] Anne
    Without Gilbert...
[14:16] Anne
    nothing is of any value.
[14:33] Anne
    Excuse me...
[14:35] Anne
    Excuse...
[14:36] Anne
    I beg your pardon!
[14:39] Anne
    Don't you work for George Fletcher,
    who lives next door to the Blythes?
[14:46] Pacifique
    That I do.
[14:47] Anne
    Did you come from
    George Fletcher's this morning?
[14:49] Pacifique
    Sure!
[14:51] Pacifique
    Mr. Fletcher hired another
    boy to help with the work.
[14:54] Pacifique
    He gets to Bright River on the first train.
[14:59] Pacifique
    I'm going through the woods for a shortcut.
[15:03] Anne
    Th-Then...
[15:04] Anne
    Did you hear how Gilbert Blythe
    was this morning?
[15:08] Pacifique
    Gilbert?
[15:12] Pacifique
    He's better.
[15:15] Pacifique
    The worst is behind him.
[15:18] Pacifique
    The doctor says he'll be
    all right any day now.
[15:23] Pacifique
    Well, I must hurry.
[15:26] Anne
    Oh, thank goodness.
[15:28] Anne
    I...
[15:30] Anne
    I can't thank you enough!
[15:55] Anne
    "Weeping may endure for a night"
[16:00] Anne
    "but joy cometh in the morning."
[16:12] Gilbert
    Hello, Anne.
[16:14] Anne
    Gilbert!
[16:16] Anne
    How do you feel?
[16:17] Gilbert
    Much better, thanks to you.
[16:19] Gilbert
    I've come to ask you to go
    for one of our rambles.
[16:23] Gilbert
    Do you remember the old apple tree
    we went to see before we left for college?
[16:28] Anne
    Yes, of course.
[16:30] Anne
    But have you forgotten
    today is Jane's wedding?
[16:33] Anne
    I've got to do something to this dress.
[16:36] Gilbert
    Well, can you go tomorrow afternoon, then?
[16:38] Anne
    Yes, I think so.
[16:40] Gilbert
    I'll never forgive Jane for not
    inviting me to her wedding.
[16:46] Anne
    You really can't blame her when
    you think of all her relations.
[16:50] Anne
    The house can hardly hold them all.
[16:53] Gilbert
    Is it true she'll wear so many diamonds
[16:57] Gilbert
    that you can't tell where the
    diamonds end and Jane begins?
[17:00] Anne
    I'll tell you once I've seen her.
[17:03] Gilbert
    Good.
[17:06] Gilbert
    Well, I'll be up tomorrow.
[17:09] Gilbert
    Hope you'll have a nice time tonight.
[17:10] Anne
    Thank you.
[17:15] Anne
    Gilbert!
[17:17] Anne
    Let's go for that ramble now, after all.
[17:20] Gilbert
    What about your dress?
[17:22] Anne
    I'll manage it somehow.
[17:24] Anne
    Today is too lovely to waste
    not walking with you.
[17:30] Anne
    This moment will never come again.
[17:47] Anne
    My!
[17:53] Anne
    It's all in bloom!
[17:55] Gilbert
    Yes. I can hardly wait
    for the fruit come fall.
[17:58] Anne
    True.
[17:59] Anne
    I feel as though old dreams might return
    in the midst of all this beauty.
[18:04] Gilbert
    Have you any unfulfilled dreams, Anne?
[18:09] Anne
    Of course. Everybody has.
[18:12] Anne
    None of us could never
    fulfill all of our dreams.
[18:17] Anne
    And we would be as good as dead if
    we had nothing left to dream about.
[18:24] Gilbert
    I have a dream.
[18:27] Gilbert
    Although it has often seemed to
    me that it could never come true,
[18:32] Gilbert
    I persist in dreaming it.
[18:36] Gilbert
    I dream of a home with a hearth-fire in it,
[18:39] Gilbert
    a cat and dog, the footsteps of friends,
[18:46] Gilbert
    and...
[18:49] Gilbert
    and you.
[18:52] Gilbert
    I asked you a question over two years ago.
[18:57] (Flashback) Anne
    I...
[18:59] (Flashback) Anne
    I...
[19:01] (Flashback) Anne
    I can't.
[19:05] Gilbert
    If I ask it again today,
[19:09] Gilbert
    will you give me a different answer?
[19:14] Anne
    B-But what about Christine?
[19:17] Anne
    I thought you loved Christine Stuart.
[19:26] Gilbert
    Christine was engaged to
    somebody in her hometown.
[19:30] Gilbert
    I knew her brother, and he asked
    me to look after her for a bit.
[19:36] Gilbert
    I knew college gossip credited us
    with being in love with each other,
[19:39] Gilbert
    but I didn't care after you told
    me you could never love me.
[19:43] Gilbert
    And Christine trusted me, anyway.
[19:48] Gilbert
    Anne, there never could be
    anybody else for me but you.
[19:53] Gilbert
    I've loved you ever since that day you
    broke your slate over my head in school.
[20:20] Anne
    I don't see how you could keep on loving
    me when I was such a little fool.
[20:26] Gilbert
    Well, I tried to stop, especially
    after Gardner came around.
[20:32] Gilbert
    I felt sure there was no chance for me then.
[20:36] Gilbert
    But I couldn't.
[20:39] Gilbert
    Then the day my fever broke, I got a letter
    from Phil Gordon—Phil Blake, rather.
[20:45] Anne
    Phil wrote to you?
[20:47] Gilbert
    Yes.
[20:48] Gilbert
    She told me there was really
    nothing between you and Roy
[20:53] Gilbert
    and advised me to "try again."
[20:56] Gilbert
    Well, the doctor was amazed at
    my rapid recovery after that.
[21:01] Gilbert
    Anne?
[21:02] Anne
    I can never forget the night
    I thought you were dying.
[21:09] Anne
    Oh, I knew—I knew then—
[21:13] Anne
    and I thought it was too late.
[21:17] Gilbert
    But it wasn't for either of us, Anne.
[21:21] Anne
    No.
[21:22] Anne
    It's the birthday of our happiness.
[21:26] Anne
    I've always loved apple blossoms,
[21:30] Anne
    and now they will be dearer than ever.
[21:33] Gilbert
    But I'll have to ask you
    to wait a long time.
[21:38] Gilbert
    It will be three years before
    I'll finish my medical course.
[21:41] Gilbert
    And even then there will be no
    diamond sunbursts and marble halls.
[21:49] Anne
    I just want you, Gilbert.
[21:54] Anne
    Sunbursts and marble halls
    may be all very well,
[21:57] Anne
    but there is more
    "scope for imagination" without them.
[22:02] Anne
    And as for the waiting, that doesn't matter.
[22:06] Anne
    We'll just be happy, waiting and working
    for each other—and dreaming.
[22:14] Anne
    Oh, dreams will be very sweet now.
[22:57] Anne
    Matthew, we're going
    to be married.
[23:01] Gilbert
    We took the long way getting here,
[23:03] Gilbert
    but I promise I'll make her happy.
[23:07] Anne
    Thank you, Matthew.
[23:10] Anne
    I'm so glad I'm your daughter.
[23:28] Anne
    Gracious Heavenly Father,
[23:33] Anne
    thank you so much for my Green Gables,
[23:38] Anne
    for bringing me here to
    wonderful Green Gables.
[23:46] Anne
    Thank you!
[23:52] Anne
    Yours respectfully, Anne Shirley.
