...forever and ever Amen.

...forever and ever Amen.

''silent night, holy night''

It's Dad and Cesar and our new car!

My little madam looking grand in her 'easy chair'

How is Sarah?

-You know things are never bad with her.

If life pushes her she pushes back.

Cesar Napoleon Broodrijks- his wife Sarah works for us.

You have an outstanding name.

-Well, my father had great expectations for me.

I've had a few of these attacks now, Herman.

It impedes me work. Can't go on like this.

I know. We'll have to wait a bit longer.

A month or two.

Will you really visit me, Aunt Lydia?

You won't be able to get rid of me.

two chicks have hatched.

And one of the hen's laid eggs

Bring the chair, Cesar.

Come, my dear.

I'm not in the mood, I'll stay here.

Excuse me, I want

to say hello to the old trout.

How do you clean a horse?

-What do you know about horses?

Sorry, I meant another horse.

-Go talk about another horse then, chump

Well, that's a nice horse!

I told you before this horse

cost my mother 1000 Rand.

What if that girl sees him?

You know that girl!

Of course, she can't walk anymore.

Huge tragedy, isn't it?

What is it?

I want that- its the loveliest horse I've ever seen

Lovely. Do you want to ride it?

I can't- you know that.

The doctor can let you ride in front.

-If you'd like that.

I do, Papa.

- Well, then...

Goodness Caesar, are you crying?

-Shut up, I'll knock your teeth out!

Don't you recognise tragedy? You idiotic bumpkin.

Hi, its David.

I wonder if you could help out this morning.

I have an overwhelming headache.

Good, I'll see you before, then.

Thanks

[nonsense song about a donkey]

Morning

-Are the people up yet?

How did you know we're here?

It's your helper

Morning

We came to see how Marietjie's doing.

-We can't stay longer I must go to the office

Not today

-Sorry, there's no alternative.

Can't you collect me later?

-Fine, then you must excuse me.

Have a quick coffee

-No thanks.

I see you have a new car. Any problems with the insurance?

Not really I worked out a way to cancel the debt.

Completely right. You were on my side of the road.

You were leaving.

-No, let's talk this out. Put an end to your guilt and self-loathing.

You don't know where the car was. I was distracting you.

Let's agree that we all share some blame.

No, I refuse to accept that.

-It happened and its over.

Forget about it.

-Please Mornay.

I wanted to invite you to dinner. It's been a long time.

What about Friday night?

You must forgive us.

You sure Mornay won't mind?

He couldn't make it.

I've made a big decision

It was difficult.

It's about Marietjie

I want to send her abroad

The McArthur Institute in America

specialises in such cases.

They can make her well.

And then to save money

I've decided to stop specialising

and to start a general practice.

You think the money will be better?

-I'm convinced.

I'll need to get a new reception.

Would you be interested?

I just don't know.

Remember we've planned to fly along

the coast when the weather's fine.

I want to see how Durban's fish tastes

I don't know when my next free weekend is.

I've quit the hospital.

Say what?

-I'm going to be Dawid's nurse and receptionist.

Funny

It's not a joke, he offered the job

and I accepted.

Looks like if I'm not on my toes

I could surely lose you.

''Nosebags, daisies, parsley

In an Boer's country garden''

''Roses, violets, gardenias

and a real Boer's garden''

''When does the brown turn green?

When is the peach flower dead?

''Because the potplant, the creepers all make

a real Boer's garden.

''So long as the flowers flounder

then the orbs swell.''

''Then the peaches and all the trees.''

''And its curling leaves

and shrinking leaves''

''crumbling leaves and moths.''

''and a real Boer's garden.''

''All thats been burnt will then begin to grow

in a real Boer's garden.''

''cat thorns and string and a real Boer's garden.''

''Finding insects under the grass.

When must one spray the lice?''

''In a real Boer's garden.''

What's wrong?

I was just careless.

I feel dizzy.

Good morning.

-Doctor, what's wrong?

I had my mind on other things

and walked into a tree.

I just have a terrible migraine.

Sorry about my clumsiness,

can I see the patient?

In the bedroom.

And now big man?

What are you doing in bed

on such a lovely day?

Morning.

Open your eyes wide,

let me see.

Penicillin, sister, 1cc.

Don't pull like that!

See, it was nothing.

Well, goodbye Miss.

That's the last time he puts a foot in my house.

What did I tell you.

Mamie Vosloo thinks he's half asleep on painkillers.

Game and match.

I want to talk to you.

It's about Dawid.

It looks to me as if he's going blind.

Is it so, Doctor?

I'm sorry, but I can't say.

Can we go?

You look bleak, what's wrong?

Lydia, let's get married.

I can't now. There's too many problems.

Problems? Heavens, it would

solve so many problems.

Please, the man's going blind.

What?

He's saving up money for Marietjie

He wants to send her to one of the best

specialists overseas.

I can't leave him in the lurch.

When will he save enough money?

His practice looks hopeless to me.

I don't know- a year?

Do you want to work for him

another year?

This time you've gone too far

Want nothing more to do with it. Sick of this!

Goodbye

Listen, I'm not going to let you go.

I can't wait that long.

I'll give him the money.

R5000

-Will you really?

You think I'm joking?

Mornay has a plan!

I hear you want to take Marietjie abroad?

-Yes, that's the idea.

I'm willing to help- financially

How much do you need?

It will be a gift.

Think about it.

It's for Marietjie.

Thanks for the offer.

Actually I never expected it from you.

But I can't accept.

I won't accept gifts from anyone.

Goodness, its for your daughter-think of her!

You want her to spend the rest of her

life in a wheelchair?

What did you do to my daughter, Pienaar?

You why she's like this.

-What do you mean?

You imply I'm guilty?

-I imply nothing, it's a fact!

Don't say things you'll later regret!

Please don't shout at eachother.

We won't get far with such a stubborn mind.

Sorry, Lydia.

It's better if you go for now.

What's wrong with him?

There there, leave him be.

He's not really like that.

He's a proud man, that's all.

This man can sing

why doesn't he do something with his voice?

There's more money in singing

than a run-down practice.

He wants to take Marietjie to America.

I known an agent there.

He can open doors for him.

He's a good doctor but he's going downhill.

Wish I could help him.

-I won't lose you.

How'd you know I was here?

-Stories travel fast.

I heard about the accident.

And your daughter.

Just tell me if I can help at all.

Here or at home, perhaps.

Look here.

It's complete healed!

It was squashed flat under a

slab of concrete.

The doctor set all the bones back together.

You could say like a ''jigsaw puzzle''.

How can I ever thank you?

Goodbye doctor
