- [LAUGHS]

- Mother, you came down.

So I did.

Are these for me?

Yes. Just for you.

How lovely.

From Ada's garden?

Mm-hmm.

Mother, come and sit.

Please sit and talk.

- But I'm not dressed.

- No one will see.

- Just the two of us.

- All right.

It's all right,

Mother. Please!

No.

I can't. Not today.

What have you been

doing today?

Oh.

[SIGHS]

Reading, as usual.

You still reading

The Good Earth?

Forever The Good Earth.

The librarian says

she'll get Anthony Adverse.

Maybe Monday.

Monday.

Now, what's today? Wednesday.

I hope the ashes went out.

It's Friday- fish night.

And it's summer.

No ashes.

[CHUCKLING]

Of course. How stupid!

Your birthdays are in March.

I remember.

You and Holland both

got those cowboy outfits...

with the fancy stitching

on the boots and-

What's that?

Just some stuff.

It was Father's.

[OBJECTS RATTLING IN CAN]

Mother, are you okay?

[CHUCKLES]

Yes, of course, darling.

[AUNT VEE]

Russell!

Russell!

Niles, I need a spool

of mercerized cotton.

Can Russell borrow your bicycle

and go to town and get it?

Sure, Aunt Vee,

only it's got a flat.

- Can he borrow Holland's then?

- Sure, Aunt Vee.

Thank you, dear.

Russell!

Russell!

Russell, where are you?

Answer me!

I'm king of the mountain!

I'm king of the mountain!

Hey, Piggy! Your mother

wants you to go to the store.

[BLOWS RASPBERRY]

[HARMONICA]

Piggy Lookadoo's

gonna ride your bike!

[CONTINUES]

[WOMAN]

Dushechka. Dushechka!

Baboushka!

Dobryi dyen, baboushka.

Dobryi dyen.

What are you doing there

all by yourself? Did you fish?

Not yet.

Summer sure is long.

[CHUCKLES]

Life is long, child.

I hate shad.

I prefer the roe.

- Roe! Ecch!

- [LAUGHS]

Like polliwog eggs.

Such a face!

Dushechka, you are a clown.

Why do you boys

not play together?

Holland doesn't like

Piggy Lookadoo.

Does he not?

Perhaps summer is long

for Russell too.

Why doesn't Holland

like Russell?

Child?

Answer me.

Do sunflowers

really follow the sun all day?

[CHUCKLES]

A Russian superstition, perhaps.

You miss Russia, don't you?

Sometimes.

But God does not mean that we should

miss too much what he takes from us.

Besides, now...

I have other sunflowers.

Ada...

can I be something else today?

Bigger than a flower.

Please?

Let's play the game.

The great game.

The great game, is it?

Please? Please?

Very well.

The great game it shall be.

- Oh, boy!

- Come on.

[BELLS TOLLING]

[BIRD CAWING]

Look there, child.

Look.

Try to be.

- [CAWING]

- Now think as I have taught you.

Look hard.

Feel inside it...

into its head, its heart.

- [CAWS]

- Imagine it, dushechka.

Imagine it.

With all your being...

you do feel.

- [INHALES] Now.
