COME AND HAVE A GO.

RUNNING SCARED JUST LIKE YOUR BROTHER.

IF I STARTED ON YOU, I WOULDN'T STOP.

YOU'VE BEEN SHAMED ENOUGH FOR ONE DAY.

CALL YOURSELF A MAN?

IRIS: HE'S...TWICE THE MAN YOU ARE!

LET'S GO HOME.

GO ON.

I CAN WAIT.

I GOT ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD!

YOU SLIPPED AWAY EARLY, MRS. REEVES.

WELL, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE.

WHAT'S FINCH FORGOTTEN NOW?

AH.

IT'S YOU I CAME TO SEE.

NEIGHBORLY CONCERN.

I'M SORRY, MRS. GULLIVER.

YOU'VE LOST ME.

CAN'T TAKE ENOUGH CARE IN YOUR CONDITION.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS YOU'VE HEARD-- ENOUGH, TO KNOW YOU'RE IN THE FAMILY WAY.

YOU MIND YOUR BUSINESS.

COMING HERE WITH YOUR NASTY TITTLE TATTLE.

BRAZEN-FACED AIRS!

AT LEAST HAVE THE DECENCY TO HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME.

GET OFF THIS FARM, AND YOU TAKE YOUR POISON WITH YOU.

LAX MORALS.

THEY MERIT A LOOSE TONGUE.

IT'S LATE, I KNOW.

I SAW THE LIGHT ON.

SCOTCH, WATER, NO ICE.

YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED.

THE PLOUGHING MATCH WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.

EVERYBODY DOFFED THEIR CAP, HURRIED HAPPILY HOME.

IF YOU'VE JUST DROPPED IN TO HUMOR ME-- AND HAVE YOU ALL TO MYSELF.

WE'RE ALL VERY EXCITED YOU'RE STAYING ON AT THE WARD.

WHEN LAWRENCE DIED-- YOUR NAME WAS MENTIONED SEVERAL TIMES.

I REMEMBERED THE MAN I WAS.

YOU NEVER EVEN SAID GOOD-BYE.

YOU'D MADE YOUR CHOICE.

IT WAS EASIER.

WE WERE TOO DIFFERENT.

I WAS NEVER GOOD ENOUGH, BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER NOW.

DOESN'T IT?

I'M SORRY.

DON'T BE.

I SHOULD NEVER HAVE COME BACK.

I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LET YOU GO.

EARLY START.

YES.

I'LL SEE YOU ON THE WARD.

I'LL LOOK FORWARD TO IT.

GOOD NIGHT, ELLEN.

GOOD NIGHT.
