:52:17
Come in.
:52:22
Here are your
rings, Mah-Li.

:52:24
But the general
gave them to you.

:52:25
Well, I'm giving them back
to you, general or no general.

:52:28
Miss Davis?
:52:30
Will you send them to my parents
when you get back to Shanghai?

:52:33
They live in Xuzhou,
and they're very poor.

:52:35
I will write the address.
:52:40
Why don't you
take them yourself?

:52:42
That's impossible.
:52:43
Impossible? What's the
general going to do with you?

:53:00
You've got a chill, Mah-Li.
:53:02
You go right straight to bed.
I'll order some hot tea.

:53:04
No. Don't bother.
:53:07
See? I have my hot-water bottle.
:53:10
That'll keep me
warm long enough.

:53:13
They aren't going
to take me far.

:53:15
Goodbye, Miss Davis.
:53:17
Look here, Mah-Li.
:53:18
I've wanted to tell
you from the first

:53:20
that if I could ever help
you in any way, I would.

:53:23
That's what I came to China for,
to help people.

:53:25
You are very kind, but I'm waiting
for the guards to take me away.

:53:31
Guards?
:53:32
What guards?
Where are they taking you?

:53:35
Not far.
:53:39
Oh, no, they won't.
:53:41
You stay right here, Mah-Li.
I'll go and see the general.

:53:51
What's the idea, Miss Davis?
Isn't it long past your bedtime?

:53:53
Is that any of your business,
Mr. Jones?

:53:55
Now, you don't fool me
even a little bit, young lady.

:53:58
Mah-Li's been spilling grief, and you're
all steamed up with Christian charity.
