:21:00
A fugitive that gangsters wanna get a hold of.
That would put us in pretty pickle.
:21:05
Easy, Claire...
think of your asthma.
:21:07
Dogville is a good place to hide,
that's for certain.
:21:10
Exactly.
The only way up here is Canyon Road.
:21:13
That could easily be watched by Ma Ginger's
-excuse me-nosey cousin who lives
only yards from the turn off.
:21:20
She has a telephone.
Martha, you could ring the bell,
:21:23
tell the town if people were coming.
:21:26
But Tom, I chime the hours,
what if people get confused with all the ringing?
:21:31
Come now, Martha.
Surely we can use our old bell to save a life, if need be.
:21:35
Why should we?
:21:38
Because we care, Chuck.
We care for other human beings.
:21:41
No, that ain't what I mean.
:21:43
How do we know that this woman is
telling us the truth?
:21:46
Maybe these gangsters did shoot at her,
but that don't make her somebody to be trusted.
:21:51
He is right.
Why would you trust me?
:21:56
I trust you!
:21:58
Tom, we're not gangsters.
:22:01
We mind our own business
we don't ask nothin' from nobody.
:22:07
So at last you admit it!
:22:08
If only there were some way,
we wouldn't doubt the young lady's word.
:22:14
some way to know her..
:22:15
Then I think we would all ignore the risk.
:22:18
But there is a way!
You said it yourself.
:22:21
By living side by side with her.
:22:24
Dad, you are such a fine judge of character.
:22:27
How long would it take a good man
like you to unmask her?
:22:30
A week? Maybe two?
:22:34
Surely we can offer her two weeks.
:22:38
And if after that time so much as
one man cries out 'BE GONE!'
:22:41
I promise I'll happily send her
packing herself.
:22:53
Well, if Master Tom thinks this is right
for us, and for the
community,
:22:57
then that will do for me.
He might be young, but his heart is right.
