:55:00
Miss Annie, put up with her and with us.
:55:03
(Captain) Us?
:55:06
Please.
:55:08
Like the lost lamb in the parable,
I love her all the more.
:55:16
Mrs Keller, I don't think Helen's
worst handicap is deafness or blindness.
:55:22
I think it's your love... and pity.
:55:26
All of you are so sorry for her,
you've kept her like a pet.
:55:29
Why, even a dog you housebreak.
:55:34
It's useless for me to try to teach her
language or anything else here.
:55:39
Miss Annie, before you came
we spoke of putting her in an asylum.
:55:46
What kind of asylum?
:55:50
For mental defectives.
:55:56
I visited there. I can't tell you what I saw.
:56:01
People like animals,
with rats in the halls and...
:56:08
What else are we to do if you give up?
:56:12
Give up?
:56:14
- You said it was hopeless.
- Here.
:56:18
Give up? Why, I only today saw
what has to be done to begin.
:56:22
- I want complete charge of her.
- You have that.
:56:25
No. I mean day and night.
She has to be dependent on me.
:56:28
- (Kate) For what?
- Everything.
:56:31
The food she eats,
the clothes she wears, fresh... air.
:56:36
Yes, the air she breathes.
:56:38
Whatever her body needs
is a primer to teach her out of.
:56:42
The one who lets her have it should be
her teacher, not anyone who loves her.
:56:46
- But if she runs from you to us...
- Yes. That's the point.
:56:53
I'll have to live with her somewhere else.
:56:57
For how long?
:56:58
Until she learns to listen to
and depend on me.
