Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story Page #14

Synopsis: It's September, 1915. Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe have been engaged for some time, but life seems to always get in the way of them actually getting married. They eventually want to resettle back in Avonlea, Prince Edward Island, despite Green Gables' dilapidated condition and the fact that they do not own it. But their latest detour takes them to New York City as Gilbert's tenure at Bellevue Hospital has been extended. Anne, who has resisted moving to New York City in the past with him, decides to go this time. While pursuing her writing career, she gets a job as a junior editor at Winfield Publishing, where she meets the company's star writer, Jack Garrison, who aspires to write more serious works than the pulp fiction he is required to churn out for Winfield. But not only affecting Anne and Gilbert's life but that of everyone they know, World War I takes hold and further complicates matters. Their respective war efforts separate the couple.

with the watch you gave me, Gil.

It's never been put to better use.

What were you two talking about?

Oh, just what fine men we've met

who have sacrificed so much.

Gil...

Jack, will you have some tea?

No.

No, I need to find Saunders.

You know that every day...

I would pick...

a different memory I had of you,

and I would play it over and

over and over again in my mind

until every detail... Every hair,

every freckle...

Every part of you was

exactly as I remembered.

You need to rest now.

You want to take

the safe road home, Anne.

I think the road with you would

only last so long, Jack.

Without you, I'd never have

my son, Anne.

The road I began with Gil

is forever.

I'll never forget

what you've done for me.

I have a dream...

we all have unfulfilled dreams.

I gave... Up Dominic...

I'll always think of him

as our son.

I'm sorry to wake you.

Jack, Jack.

Who did this to you?

You're beautiful.

What's happened?

What goes around comes

around with outlaws.

Keegan must be really scared.

Don't move.

Gil, Gil, Gil!

Gil!

Oh, God.

Who his is going

to try get off the train.

If we get him off this train now,

he's going to bleed to death.

You're going to be all right.

Whatever happens to me...

Take care of my son.

Keep holding this, and I'll go for help.

It'll be all right.

No.

What's happening?

Is the town under attack?

No more attacks today,

monsieur,or any other day.

It's all over. C'est fini.

What we've all been praying for.

The armistice was

signed at Compiegne.

What's all this shooting for, then?

All the old ammunitions.

Ils sont fous.

Ils sont fatigues.

I can't believe Jack never

lived to see the armistice.

He knew.

Please, help me find Dominic.

Dominic?

Dominic?

Dominic?

Dominic?

What's the matter?

Dominic.

Where can he be?

A child just doesn't disappear

into thin air.

You said yourself his aunt

was looking after him.

What if something happened to her?

For all we know, they could be

on the way back

to New York by now.

Gil, when I was in London,

I made a promise.

I told Jack, if anything ever

happened to him, I would

look after his son.

We'll have to do everything

in our power to find him, then.

That's my promise to you.

Are you going to tell them

when we get back?

I'm ready now, Gil.

Living here this past year

with Fred and Diana

has made me realize how

much things have changed.

Well, a lawyer promised

he'd bring all the papers.

Whoa!

Mrs. Blythe.

What glorious countryside.

Where is he?

He's with the stationmaster.

My wife's worried

he won't recognize her.

I have all the documents.

It seems that...

Ms. Garrison suffered

heart failure...

on her return to New York.

The next of kin don't want the boy.

I'd never forget you.

I got you back.

You came back to me.

I love you.

Oh.

What?

Whoa.

Dominic.

You promised you'd bring him home.

Look, oh, this must be Dominic.

Oh, he's beautiful.

It's official. We signed

the adoption papers today.

Oh, we have good news.

We looked at a house

in town this morning.

I think we've more than

overstayed our welcome.

Well, actually...

We won't spend

the rest of the year here.

What do you mean?

Gil and I talked about it,

and we decided that

we want you and Fred

to keep Green Gables for good.

I'm going to be taking over

doc Stuart's medical practice

in Glen St. Mary, and we drive over

to look at a new house tomorrow.

Oh... You can't give this place up.

There isn't anyone who

would appreciate it more than you.

We'll come back to visit.

We want to start over.

Oh.

I don't know what to say.

Our children will be kindred

spirits for life.

Green Gables will always be here

this way in my heart.

It's never looked so peaceful.

Just the way it was when

I first came here as a child.

What do you think, Dominic?

We have to make a new life...

But built on all the old foundations.

We'll build a good home

and raise a family...

With lots of scope

for the imagination.

Oh, how I loved it here, Gil.

But Green Gables will

always be a part of me.

Come on Gil, let's show him

all our old haunts.
