- Are you Helen's? | - I'm only half her brother.
- You're to be her governess? | - Well, try.
You look like half a governess.
- You have a trunk, Miss Sullivan? | - Yes.
Mrs Keller.
We've met every train for two days.
You didn't bring Helen. | I was hoping you would.
No, she's home.
- You live far from town, Mrs Keller? | - Only a mile.
Well, I suppose I could wait | one more mile.
But don't be surprised | if I get out and push the horse.
- Welcome to Ivy Green, Miss Sullivan. | - My husband, Miss Annie. Cap'n Keller.
- Captain, how do you do? | - Pleasure to see you.
- I trust you had an agreeable journey. | - Oh, I had several.
- Where do you want the trunk? | - Where Miss Sullivan can get at it.
- Yes. Where's Helen? | - And the suitcase.
I'll take that. I've got something | for Helen. When do I see her?
There. There's Helen.
- Katie... | - Sh.
- She's very rough, Katie. | - I like her, Cap'n.
How old is she?
Well, she's not in her teens, you know.
Why does she wear those glasses? I like | to see a person's eyes when I talk to 'em.
- For the sun. She was blind. | - Blind?
She had nine operations on her eyes. | One just before she left.
Blind? Good heavens! They expect | one blind child to teach another?
How long did she teach there?
She was a pupil.
This is her first position?
She was valedictorian.
A houseful of grown-ups | can't cope with Helen.
How can a half-blind Yankee | schoolgirl manage?
Great improvement. | Now we have two of them.
- You be quiet. | - I was agreeing with you.
You talk too much.
- Nothing I say is right. | - Why say anything?
All the trouble I went to | and that's how I look?
Oh, no, not the drawers.
All right, Miss O'Sullivan, let's begin.
With doll.
D...
O...
L...
L.
Doll.
Finding out if she's ticklish? She is.
- What is it, a game? | - An alphabet.
Alphabet?
For the deaf.
- How bright she is. | - You think she knows what she's doing?
She's a monkey. She imitates everything.
Yes, she's a bright little monkey, all right.
She wants her doll back.
- When she spells it. | - She doesn't know the thing has a name.
Of course not. Who expects her to now? | All I want is her fingers to learn the letters.
Won't mean anything to her.
She doesn't like that alphabet. | You invent it yourself?
Spanish monks under a vow of silence - | which I wish you'd take.
Yes... Yes!
C...
A...
K...
E.
Yes.
You do as my fingers do. | Never mind what it means.
Now...
D...
O...
L...
L.
Think it over.
L.
Imitate now. Understand later. | End of the first lesson.
Ow!
