worth of dishes to do.
[ Carriage Approaching]
Need some help with that pail?
I've done my fair share of chores.
I think I can manage on my own.
I'm sure you can.
But just because you can manage
doesn't mean you ought to.
You only have yourself to rely on, Mr. Owens.
Best not to forget that.
I thought I was the only one
who made house calls.
trouble with her gutters.
Thought I'd stop by and take a look.
You know, I'll just be up there
for another half hour.
After that, I'd love your company
for lunch, if you're free.
[ Chuckles ]
Uh, I don't even know you.
a long way to remedy that.
Mr. Owens...
I thank you for your invitation...
but I'm afraid I'm much too busy.
to do research at the clinic.
Well, seems like the children
are in good hands.
Another time then?
[ Groans ]
Sorry I made you sick, Katie.
I swear I didn't mean it.
I promise Doc Belinda's doing everything
she can to make you better.
I'll be right here to help her.
I'll be okay, Lillian.
- He's gettin' worse, isn't he?
- He's fighting, Mrs. Pine.
[ Exhales ]
- [Horse Whinnies ]
- [ Exhales Deeply]
[ Chattering]
Even the busy need to eat.
You are a very persistent man, Mr. Owens.
Uh, I thought I'd...
help you with your research.
Oh, I can read. So-
As you wish.
Just, uh, tell me what youre looking for.
Oh.
Thank you.
Why can't it be the food?
Because it doesn't make sense.
The orphanage doesn't grow their own food.
It comes from the farmers.
The farmers sell it to the general store.
The whole town buys from Gus.
And they don't have a garden?
Well, you've seen what Miss Clarence
has to contend with.
She doesn't have time for a garden.
I should get back to the shop.
Oh. Thank you for your help-
and lunch.
Oh, you're welcome.
You know, those children are lucky to have you.
They could use a few more defenders.
Well, I grew up in an orphanage,
just like them.
I know what it's like to feel like
you're nobody's child.
I'm sorry.
No one does.
Well-
[Door Opens, Closes ]
[ Chattering ]
[ Man ]
What's Hattie Clarence doing in town?
- [ Man #2 ] Make her tell us the truth, Mayor.
- Hattie Clarence...
has the same rights
as anyone else in this town.
- [ Evans ] She came to me
like a responsible citizen.
[ Man ]
You're supposed to be protecting this town!
- [ Miss Clarence ] Please try to
understand. We need your help.
- What do you think is going on?
- [All Shouting ]
- [ Man ] We gotta get some answers!
[ Man #2 ] Take Florence Nightingale
and her children back where they came from!
People, quiet down.
Yelling doesn't solve anything.
I will address your concerns
one at a time.
The Malloys caught
the sickness last night.
The Malloys and now Betsy Donovan.
And this plague is spreading, folks.
Please! My children can't be responsible.
I haven't let them come near town
since this thing started.
They havent been
anywhere near you people!
"You people"? Our taxes pay for
that place, Hattie. Don't you forget it.
This town hasn't put
10 cents into that orphanage!
with the best of intentions...
and then just left it there to rot!
All right. Now don't make it
personal, Hattie.
This is as personal as it gets, Mayor.
That woman is playing with our lives.
Ray, you can't blame Miss Clarence
or those children for whats happening here.
We don't even know
what this disease is yet.
We do know.
Doc Simpson says it's cholera.
[All Gasping]
[ Chattering]
Ray.
- You knew about this, and you didn't warn us?
- She's doing the best she can.
Well, her best doesn't seem
very good, now, does it?
We need a real doctor, not some uppity
spinster who wants to play pretend.
Everyone, calm down.
We need to give Dr. Simpson enough time
to do her job. She needs a chance.
Our families are sick, Mayor.
How long are we supposed to wait?
Those orphans need to be run out of town.
All right. Now that's it.
That is enough.
We will have a town meeting,
tomorrow night, right here, 5:00.
And we will decide the fate
and future of the orphanage.
You heard it. The mayor said it.
On your way then.
[ Crowd Chattering]
Oh, Belinda.
I know how much you miss Drew.
- [ Clanging]
- [ Dog Barking]
- [ Chattering]
What is it?
What is it?
I know why the sick
aren't getting any better.
Cholera doesn't directly kill the body.
It drains it of all its fluid...
and so the patient dies
from dehydration, right?
[Annie ] Well, that's why youve been
giving them so much water.
- Except for the fact that most
- Exactly. So...
we need to find a way to give the children so
much water that their bodies retain some of it.
I don't understand.
is doing an experiment-
a method called intravenous therapy.
Works just like taking blood,
only in reverse.
You drip a fluid- usually a medication-
into the body through the veins.
So by injecting it directly into the bloodstream
it's harder for the body to reject.
We have no idea how to
build something like this.
I'll go to the post office
Wait. Belinda, where are you going?
The post office doesn't open for two hours.
[ Chattering ]
- [ Girl] You got the hang of it.
- [ Girl #2 ] Yeah, I did.
- Oh, do you want to learn ones that I know?
- Okay.
I truly think this could work.
Dr. William Halsted
it could be the most effective
way to treat the sick.
We don't have anything
like this in our infirmary.
Well, no one does.
Not yet at least.
Um, it's still fairly experimental.
We'd have to build
each one of them on our own.
Sounds expensive.
Belinda, I-
We hardly make ends meet here.
You're right.
I'll pay for it.
What? I can't ask you to do that.
You're not asking me.
And my father loves his causes.
Hed be more than happy to give us
anything that we needed.
So let's make the list,
and let me worry about paying for it.
Well, the most important element
is the rubber tubing. We can start there.
[ Exhales ] If you want more tubing,
I'll have to order it from St. Louis.
Would you? Oh, and I need as many bottles
as I can find. Soda bottles would be best.
[ Exhales ]
"Sody" bottles.
- Is this all right?
- Perfect.
Hey, Doc. I'd offer to help,
but I think I know what you're gonna say.
You're a fast learner, Mr. Owens.
[ Whispers ]
She's spending too much time here.
ifl took her to the clinic with me?
But if the disease
is passing person to person...
should she really be out there
with the townspeople?
She's not sick, and neither are we.
[ Chattering]
You sure do have a lot of books.
Books are very important to me.
- There's nothing useful in books.
- That's not true at all.
