:15:00
She is, Ruth.
:15:02
Then I dinna feel so bad
about Andrew.

:15:05
You know, I've been feeling
awful guilty

:15:07
and all the time you've been
stealing a march on me.

:15:13
Polly.
:15:15
Polly Manson.
:15:17
Mmm. I don't know
whether I like it or not.

:15:20
Whether you do or you don't,
she's gonna be your sister-in-law.

:15:24
And tomorrow, Father'll know it.
:15:26
When parliament meets tomorrow,
I'm going to speak out.

:15:29
- He'll be awful angry.
- I'm not a child any more.

:15:32
There are others who think like me,
James Gray for one.

:15:34
- Andrew doesn't.
- Oh, Andrew.

:15:36
And what's wrong with Andrew?
:15:39
There'll be a deal wrong with
his neck if he doesna take care.

:15:43
Andrew!
:15:46
Tell him to get down!
:15:48
Get down! You're frightening Ruth!
:16:01
That was a sudden idea.
:16:03
It looked like it.
:16:04
In the old days, you had to show
your courage to win a wife.

:16:07
I said to myself "Andrew, my lad,
you're as good as they are

:16:10
and Ruth has got to be sure of you."
:16:12
Remember it's the Sabbath!
:16:13
That's what Father said,
and I'm no likely to forget it.

:16:17
But if a man can't
put his arm round his girl

:16:20
without John Knox
turning in his grave,

:16:22
then the world's full of sinners.
:16:26
Here's good luck for us.
:16:29
We don't need any.
:16:33
What were you two talking about?
:16:35
- You.
- Oh? That's natural enough.

:16:37
Oh, you're not the only one.
:16:39
Robbie's got a bonnet full of bees.
You're one, I'm the other,

:16:42
but the busiest of the lot
is the girl from Norway.

:16:46
Robbie! I'm glad.
:16:50
Why don't you bring her over?
:16:52
I'm not bringing her back to Hirta,
now or ever.

:16:56
But I hope you and she and Ruth will
be good friends and... neighbours.
