All right, father.
Make it fast, my boy.
Yes, father.
Reel her through
the back, alan.
Yes, father.
Must be 5:
00, father.There's the boston stage.
[Whistles]
Cap huff, where
you going?
Can't stop now.
I'm on an errand
of mercy.
When did you
start tending bar?
Why, langdon!
Hello, son.
The day
you left for harvard,
i started my education
at studely's tavern.
Hunk marriner's
in sore need of this.
Where is hunk?
On public exhibition.
Bring that tankard here
and let me hide
my face in it in shame.
Well, if it ain't
langdon towne,
my educated friend.
Why, you old possum.
Go over there
I'm glad to see you.
Let me give him that.
Sure this is good
for him?
This ain't
the silly season.
You give it to him.
I'd as soon try
to fill a sieve.
What put him in here
this time?
Clagett
the king's attorney.
Clagett? Did you bite him
or just kick him?
No. I'm in
for public speaking.
What brought you home
in time for deer season?
You might call it
public speaking.
Pictures speak
louder than words.
The puritan
or the pie?
The pie... harvard pie.
Who's the puritan?
The president of harvard.
Now the president can't
stand the smell of you.
He asked me to go
far, far away.
You ought to know
better than that.
Whiskers on a skunk
grow up, not down.
Well, i've never been
on intimate terms
with a skunk.
Does your father
know about this,
langdon?
No, and is not
going to be easy
to tell him i've been
sacked from harvard.
Drop over to the tavern
afterwards.
I'll be there, too.
They lock me up
about sundown.
around 8:
00.Here, here.
Mind your step.
Mind my step?
Clages a tyrant
and thief!
I wouldn't be here
if he hadn't tried
to tax my old father
of half
his fish catch!
Save it, hunk.
The time will come.
A hundred years
the townes
have
rigged-out ships.
They had hoped
to bring into port
a professional man...
a lawyer,
a clergyman.
And now their
first great venture
is dashed
on the rocks
of youthful folly.
I ask your forgiveness
for disappointing
you and mother.
I ask my brothers
to forgive me
for throwing away
my chance.
Aw, langdon.
I want my sons to take up
for their rights,
but i hate
for my boy
to go around
with his heart
on his sleeve.
Yes, mother?
I'm sorry langdon's
lost his chance
to be a clergyman.
He's always shown
his feelings.
Clergymen show
their feelings
on all occasions.
Well, thas
a clergyman's
privilege.
Artists should show
their feelings, too.
And if he's going
to be a painter,
he's got
to feel about things.
Yes. If he felt
that way,
he felt that way.
We'll have to make
the best of our
disappointments.
Oh, father!
Son, what was
in that pie?
I never
got that far, sir.
May langdon borrow
a sunday shirt
to call on elizabeth
tonight?
Of course,
but remember...
keep our disappointments
within the family.
I don't want langdon
to bow his head
to reverend browne.
The townes have
been rigging ships
just as long
as the brownes
have been sending
sinners to...
hades.
I declare!
Langdon.
Elizabeth.
I can't believe it.
What can't you
believe?
You're more beautiful
than ever.
Oh, no.
Langdon, are those
the manners
they teach you
at harvard?
I thought of you
all the time,
made a thousand sketches
of the way you'd look
when i saw you again.
I'm sure you never
gave me a thought
with all those
lovely ladies
in boston.
I made one good sketch.
You're looking at me
over your shoulder.
Every time i see it,
