(ALL SHOUTING)
Ma?
(SQUEALS)
Ma, ma.
My son!
They told me you were dead.
They were almost right.
But here's what's left of me, Ma.
Just think. All three of you.
Brett!
Ray.
All my sons. Home again.
Clint!
- Clint!
- Oh!
Clint, come running!
VANCE:
Cathy! Cathy!(WHISPERS) Vance.
Cathy.
Let me have a good look at you, honey.
Yeah, that's just how I've seen you
night and day for four long years.
Except for those britches.
BRETT:
Clint! Clint!Vance!
Oh, no!
No, this can't be the sprat!
Look at how he's grown and filled out.
Why, he's almost a man now,
ain't he, Cathy?
- They told us you were dead.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I know. I know. Now, come on.
Come on. Tell me about you all.
I can see we got a heap of work to do.
The first thing is to get Cathy out
of those britches and into a dress.
Been trying to, but she works harder
than a mule all day helping me and Ma.
You don't have to anymore.
We got three new farmhands.
Come on, I got
a bushel of things to tell you.
Vance? I don't reckon you
but me and Cathy got married
Married?
Well, this is a...
This is a day of surprises all around.
I don't know what we'd
have done without Cathy, son.
Or her without us after her folks died.
We had mighty poor scratching
to keep body and soul together
waiting for the war to end.
Well, it must've been hard.
Well...
Congratulations, Clint.
We always did want Cathy
in the family, didn't we, Ma?
Yes, son.
Always.
Hey, Cathy.
Look at the nicks on this saber
Vance gave me.
How many Yankees did you all get?
- We didn't stop to count.
Most of those nicks
came from butchering pigs, Clint.
Yeah, I'll bet. A blue one
with the brass buttons.
Boy, I wish I would've been there.
- I'd have gotten my share.
- All I could do to keep him home.
He ranted and raved every time
we got news of a battle.
You did right to stay here, Clint.
You did fine.
I love my bonnet. You boys shouldn't
have spent what little you got on me.
Well, that's a mighty poor gift,
Ma, for all you've given us.
CLINT:
Hey! Look here.A brand new Sunday-go-to-meeting suit.
Well, that's a present for you, Clint.
From all of us.
For me? Gee, it must've cost a fortune.
- Where'd you get all the money?
- We had some saved up.
- And we still got a few dollars left, Ma.
- That's more than we got, son.
Sit down while everything's hot.
Come on, Clint. You're hungry, aren't you?
Dear Lord, I thank you most kindly for
bringing my boys home safe and sound.

(ALL LAUGHING)
Good to hear him sing again.
