''l'm half crazy over the love of you

''lt won't be a stylish marriage

and l can't afford a carriage

''But you'll look sweet upon the seat

of a bicycle made for two

''But you'll look sweet upon a seat--''

-My God, she's naked!

-l'm only taking a bath!

-Naked?

-We're not animals here!

Ursula, she's not doing it to annoy you!

Little tramps!

You're both revolting!

Who did that?

Tell me. l want to know.

Which one of you perverted monsters?

Ursula...

...l am going to tear out every hair

that's in your natty little head...

...and shove them down that big fat mouth

of yours if you don't leave now!

l knew she was a chicken.

llsa, go up to your room at once.

Heidi, l'm sure you have

been accustomed to a more...

...rustic kind of existence.

And without arguing the merits

of naked bathing...

...suffice it to say that we remain clothed

here at Brookings.

Yes, ma'am.

l have felt like a stranger, too, you know?

l was born in France and raised in England,

did you know that?

And those responsible for my upbringing...

...a little more ''natural''

Not out of weakness, but...

...as a way to learn your own strength.

That way you learn how to survive...

...and grow.

''Dear Grandfather, school is wonderful.

''Making lots of nice friends.''

-Someday.

-You two are positively disgusting.

Don't look at that!

Mrs. Hillary!

Signora.

l have to inform you this school is required

by the ltalian Army as a military post.

My men will be garrisoned here.

-But that's impossible!

-Here's a letter from the Governor.

The entire building and grounds

must be cleared within the next 24 hours.

Unfortunately, we must

move in immediately. l'm very sorry.

But....

Girls, get back in!

I'm afraid the Christmas holidays

have arrived a few weeks early this year.

We may meet in the next year.

More likely we will not.

lf the rest of Europe is anything to go by...

...the unpleasantness

between this country...

...and its neighbor to the north...

...will not be resolved

without a great deal of bloodshed.

l cannot promise you

a next term at Brookings...

...but l do promise you a forever and ever.

You may leave Brookings,

its activities, and its friendships...

...but Brookings will never leave you.

Signora, everybody

must leave this property.

l said yesterday,

the children are not safe here.

Where do you expect me to take them?

Their parents are traveling,

l cannot reach them...

...and Heidi's grandfather has not
