He wrote something about a simple
little vase of flowers. On her birthday.
:59:06
Of course. Her birthday. When is it?
:59:08
Well, he...
:59:10
Well, it seems like he said
it was along the fall of the year.
:59:14
- Halloween.
- Halloween?
:59:18
- People are born on Halloween.
- It works out perfectly, Mother.
:59:22
It'll tie in with our housewarming.
We could have a ceremony.
:59:25
You know, candles, a simple bouquet,
her lovely painting above.
:59:29
- Probably by Sargent. Maybe Whistler.
- Sounds too good to be true.
:59:33
There's Gilly now.
:59:36
You see, Mother?
We were fated to live here!
:59:47
- Mariah, I was uh...
- Don't try to stop me, Mr. Popham.
:59:50
Well, of course not.
You making a social call?
:59:54
I ain't feeling social, Mr. Popham.
:59:57
I'm here to talk gospel truth
to Mrs. Carey.
1:00:00
I searched the store for a letter
from Mr. Hamilton and I didn't find one.
1:00:06
This whole thing's gone far enough.
1:00:07
Uh... Well, what are you
going to tell the Careys, Mariah?
1:00:11
My suspicions.
1:00:23
Maybe it's why
I look on the dark side,
1:00:24
living with Mr. Popham
and him so hopeful.
1:00:27
Well, he certainly keeps our spirits up.
1:00:30
That's 'cause you don't get him steady.
Hopefulness at meals.
1:00:34
Hopefulness days. Hopefulness nights.
1:00:37
One everlasting stream of hopefulness.
1:00:41
Even as a boy, Mr. Popham
always looked on the bright side,
1:00:44
whether there was any or not.
1:00:46
His mother and father
got terrible sick of it.
1:00:49
It's a wonderful faculty,
seeing the bright side of everything.
1:00:53
Wonderful tiresome. I like to believe
in a cloud that's a first-class cloud.
1:00:58
Thick and black clean through.
