Sophie and the Rising Sun Page #2

Do you have any references,

Salome?

No, ma'am.

I just moved back here.

Hmm. I see.

I'll keep your house cleaner

than you ever seen it.

I'll work for you

the first week free,

see if you pleased with my work.

That won't be necessary.

I don't like being hovered over.

The house is a mess. My former

housekeeper left a week ago.

Got your work cut out for ya.

I'm used to folks bein' dirty.

Most of 'em's downright filthy

if you ask me.

Well, you show up 8:00 tomorrow.

Thank you, ma'am.

Sharp.

You gonna buy that newspaper?

No, sir.

Do you have any

late season plants?

For Mrs. Morrison.

Over there.

These are the most beautiful.

I do not garden, Mr. Ohta. I'm

just looking at the illustrations.

Mr. Ohta.

Uh, when you finish your lunch,

um, please come into the house.

Uh, my deceased...

Scott's things

are in that trunk.

Help yourself to some clothes.

Take whatever you need.

Thank you, miss Anne.

I can't bring myself

to throw them out, and, uh,

I hate to see things

go to waste.

Mr. Morrison loved poetry?

Oh, yes.

So do I.

You can read?

Forgive me. That was...

That was very rude.

Wordsworth was his favorite.

Here.

I'll leave you to it.

"Since the spirit of god

dwells in you,

anyone who does not have

the spirit of Christ

does not belong to him.

Christ is in you,

though the body is dead

because of sin,

the spirit is life

because of the righteousness."

Excuse me.

This was the only path I found.

Anne gave you Scott's paints.

Yes, and other things.

Excuse me.

I find this the most

beautiful spot to paint.

Hitler will get

a good fight from the Russians.

The Germans won't be stopped

unless America enters the war.

Someone's gotta stop 'em.

Well, let the Europeans

make-do without us this time.

But they're transporting

all the Jews out of the cities.

Oh, Anne,

that's just rumors. Unproven.

How's John?

I haven't seen him in some time.

He's at church, Anne.

Every Sunday, plain to see.

I'm just so glad you're

still able to take him out.

How's the Chinaman doin'?

Better, I hope.

Oh, yes.

He's making a fine recovery.

Well, I stopped by

to suggest that, uh, your...

May I help myself to a cookie?

Certainly.

Looks delicious.

Mmm, mmm.

Thank you.

I stopped by to suggest

that your new girl take the Chinaman

over to the African Methodist church.

Why can't he go to your church?

Oh, Anne!

Why not?

Well, do I have to spell it out?

He's not white.

Well, he's not negro either.

Well, he's yellow

and that's colored.

Good morning.

Morning.

I think you've forgotten

I'm here.

Not possible.

I must be goin'.

May I see?

You have an unusual style.

See you next Sunday?
