...but it just doesn't seem very big
out here where we live.

1:08:04
And what will the children do?
1:08:07
The same as they do here...
1:08:09
...go to school, play,
have their friends over.

1:08:12
What friends?
1:08:14
- Yes. What friends?
- The friends they'll meet in school.

1:08:17
I don't go to school.
1:08:19
You will someday,
if they'll take you in.

1:08:21
Agnes just ready to be promoted
and Esther going to be a senior.

1:08:25
- I've worked all my life to be a senior.
- And Rose is to be graduated.

1:08:29
Graduation is the least.
All the people I care about are in St. Louis.

1:08:32
And what about me and my life?
1:08:35
You can take that with you.
1:08:38
It's settled.
We're moving to New York.

1:08:40
You're being very calm
about the way you pack us off.

1:08:44
I've got the future to think about.
The future for us all.

1:08:48
I've got to worry about money, with
Lon in Princeton and Rose going to college.

1:08:52
Maybe Rose won't have to go.
Things are happening.

1:08:55
Tonight she met Colonel Darly,
and he was very smitten with her.

1:08:59
I'm sure he was, but next year
she'll still want to go to college.

1:09:02
I hate, loathe, despise
and abominate money.

1:09:05
- You also spend it.
- And what about Katie...

1:09:08
...and Grandpa and the chickens?
1:09:10
- That's a minor detail we can discuss later.
- I'm a minor detail, am I?

1:09:14
You all know I was talking
about the chickens.

1:09:17
Of course.
Never mind what happens to your family.

1:09:20
At a time like this,
talk about the chickens.

1:09:29
Now, I guess you're all a little excited.
1:09:33
We'll talk this over calmly tomorrow.
1:09:36
Well, hickory nut cake
as only Katie can make it.

1:09:39
I can't move to New York.
I just can't.

1:09:42
I'm taking my cat.
Lady Babbie goes wherever I go.

1:09:45
Where you gonna keep her?
Cooped up in a tenement?

1:09:48
Don't they have houses in New York?
1:09:50
Rich people have houses.
People like us live in flats.

1:09:54
I'd rather be poor
if we could stay here.

1:09:57
I'd rather go with the "orphalins"
at the orphalins home.
