:33:00
She can't.
:33:02
We have no other bed
and no money for it.

:33:04
That's all right.
:33:06
I've been saving some money
for the new schooner.

:33:08
It's fine.
:33:23
You're seasick.
Yes, I am a little.

:33:31
Welcome.
:33:33
Be careful
with that trunk.

:33:34
I'm sick from the boat.
:33:36
I need tea and bread.
:33:43
Karen...
how is our brother?

:33:48
He's well.
:33:51
Is that all?
:33:54
Hasn't he written you?
:33:57
We had one letter.
:33:58
One letter
in all this time?

:34:01
I'm surprised.
:34:03
I thought our brother
bore you a special affection.

:34:06
He's probably busy.
:34:08
He was not too busy
to be a comfort to me.

:34:11
He took me on a holiday
over Easter.

:34:14
And to the theater.
And to supper.

:34:16
And we stayed in a hotel.
:34:21
He's prospered
wonderfully.

:34:23
And put money by.
:34:26
No doubt he will soon
meet a young woman

:34:28
to turn his head.
:34:33
Perhaps he'll come
to America.

:34:36
Don't be absurd.
:34:38
A man who prospers
in his own country

:34:40
has no need to flee.
:34:45
He's well, though?
:34:48
And happy?
:34:51
Oh yes, Maren.
:34:53
Never better.
:34:55
We found Karen
a domestic position

:34:57
early that spring
at the Appledore Island Hotel.
