You know why we had to wait.
I couldn't leave Martha until...
"...until the school was
on its feet." Yes, I know.
talk this way before.
Why are you angry tonight?
I don't know.
Why don't you know?
Why don't you know?
People feel the way
they feel, that's all.
I feel lonely, and I feel tired
and I'm sick of plans
for the future.
- Do you feel in love?
- Other people's children.
- I asked you, do you feel in love?
- Don't be cute.
What I'm trying to ask you,
only you talk so much, is...
Can we have a baby
12 months from now?
All right, kid. You got a date.
How I love you.
Love you. Love you. Love you.
Martha,
Joe and I decided tonight.
So soon!
It doesn't seem so soon to Joe.
No, I suppose it doesn't.
Congratulations.
Wouldn't it be nice to have the
wedding right here at the school?
The garden will be in full
bloom and the roses out.
We could put up a
candstriped awning.
And then good-bye,
Wright-Dobie school.
My marriage isn't going to make
any difference to the school.
It will, Karen. You know
it will. It can't help it.
You keep saying things like that.
We've talked about all this before.
You know Joe isn't asking me to give
it up, and I'm not going to leave.
No, of course not. I don't know
I don't understand you!
It's been so hard
building this place up.
Just when we're getting on our feet you're
ready to let it all go right to hell!
Martha, for God's sake, do you
expect me to give up my marriage?
No.
No, of course not.
I'm sorry, Karen.
I don't know how I
could be so selfish.
Please, forgive me.
I already have.
It's been a long day. We
both need some sleep.
Yes, you're right.
Who has the cooking
detail for breakfast?
I do.
Karen...
you know, don't you, that I
only want the best for you?
I know.
"This proves me base,
"if she first meet
the curled Antony
"he'll make demands of
her, and spend that kiss
- "which is my heaven..."
- Evelyn. Evelyn.
Cleopatra talking to an asp?
"This knot intrinsicate
"of life at once untie.
"Poor venomous fool.
- "Be angry, and dispatch..."
- Mary!
Why, Mary, are you just arriving
for your elocution class?
If you take no interest
in your work, then...
I went to get these flowers
for you, Mrs. Mortar.
You told us you loved flowers. And I
walked so far to get them for you.
That was very thoughtful
of you, Mary.
I suppose I'll have to
forgive you this time.
Thoughtfulness and
courtesy mean breeding
and breeding is an excellent thing.
that down, all of you.
