Anna and the King of Siam Page #2

But sometime His Majesty

do not remember everything he promise.

But couldn't you remind him?

Mem, if I tell king

he breaks his promise...

I will make anger in him.

I think it is better if I make anger

in him about larger matters.

Very well.

If you're afraid to tell him, I'm not.

Will you arrange for me

to see him as soon as possible?

You think you tell king

he breaks his promise?

Yes, if that's necessary.

If he wants to get angry

about breaking his own promise...

Mem, I think I arrange

this meeting for you.

- When?

- I do not know.

His Majesty very busy now.

Is he too busy to remember

he asked me to come?

Unfortunately, new year and you

arrive at same time.

New year more important.

It wouldn't take

10 minutes of his time...

And after new year is festival

called Songkran, with fireworks.

That will take week or so maybe.

- Then it's time for cremation of late cousin.

- But surely...

Then His Majesty goes upriver

to receive sacred white elephant.

Then ceremonies of tonsure of hair

of oldest daughter.

What am I supposed to do

in the meantime?

Wait. Live in palace and wait.

This is ridiculous.

I came here to teach.

Mem, this country has been here

1,000 years before you came...

and must continue.

That may be, but I intend to keep

my part of the bargain...

and I assure you

I expect the king to keep his.

Mem, I do not think king

will remember this promise...

but I do think will be

very interesting meeting.

I don't think we'd better open this one.

- It's full of things I didn't know what to do with.

- Yes, memsahib.

Beebe, do stop crying.

I told you Moonshee

will probably be here any minute.

I think I shall never see him again.

- They said he could not live here with us...

- Nonsense.

You must have misunderstood.

It's just there isn't room for him here now.

- Yes, memsahib.

- Do you remember where I packed those sheets?

- I see fireworks.

- It's New Year's Day.

No, it isn't, Mother. It's only April.

It's the New Year's out here.

I won't sleep a wink tonight unless

we have our own sheets on those beds.

After dinner,

may we go see the fireworks?

We'll see. Ah, yes.

They're in here. I remember now.

There, Beebe. All right. Come on, darling.

Now I'll see about dinner.

We would like to have some dinner.

Something to eat. Eat.

No, wait a moment.

What part of the palace are we in?

Well, poor souls.

They don't seem to understand.

- What made them shut the door?

- Uh, I don't know...

What are they doing there?

Oh! Oh, no!

Oh. So that's why Moonshee

can't be here with us.

Oh, go away. Beebe.

What a thing for me to do.

And I said so positively.
