[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
