STRONG GRIP...
FOR A BOY.
HERE COMES:

I'LL GIVE
YOU SOMETHING:
TO RECUPERATE ABOUT.
[DOOR SHUTS]
ESTHER,
YOUR ICE CREAM:
IS MELTING.
ISN'T IT?
ESTHER, IS THERE
ANYTHING WRONG:
WITH YOU?
YES, MAMA.
ROSES ARE RED,
ESTHER'S IN LOVE,
MY SISTER'S HUMILIATED
THEY'RE YOUR
SISTERS, TOO.
STOP IT, YOU TWO,
TRUITT. KNEW IT.
THAT'S PRETTY GOOD.
I CAN'T THINK
OF ANY WORD:
THAT RHYMES:
WITH COLONEL...
UNLESS:
IT'S INFERNAL.
IT'S VERY DIFFICULT
FOR A PERSON:
IN THIS FAMILY.
WELL, ANOTHER
HALLOWEEN.
WE'RE ALL
A YEAR OLDER.
FAMILY LIVES?
HELLO, PAPA.
WE STOPPED:
A TROLLEY.
I GOT:
TWO STITCHES,
AND I DIDN'T
CRY ONCE.
WHAT'S THIS, ANNA?
SHE FELL:
SHE'S FINE.
THAT'S A BRAVE
LITTLE GIRL.
ANNA?
LOUIS SHERRY!
WHY, LONNIE,
WHAT A LOVELY BOX--
IS ANYTHING WRONG?
JUST BECAUSE:
YOU THINK I'VE BEEN
UP TO SOMETHING.
WELL, I HAVE.
DON'T FLY UP
IN THE AIR.
I'M AS COOL
AS A CUCUMBER.
YOU'RE SHAKING LIKE
I DON'T KNOW WHAT.
I WAS GOING:
TO NEW YORK.
FOR A WHILE.
WE'LL BE SAFE.
I'VE GOT 12 GUNS
IN MY ROOM.
BE BACK:
FOR THANKSGIVING.
THEY'RE SENDING ME
TO BE HEAD:
OF FENTON, RAYBURN,
AND COMPANY.
NEW YORK!
WHAT?
NEW YORK?
I DON'T BELIEVE IT.
I SIMPLY DON'T
BELIEVE IT.
I'M TO START
WE'LL LEAVE RIGHT
AFTER CHRISTMAS.
I THOUGHT WE'D LIKE
TO HAVE CHRISTMAS
IN ST. LOUIS.
I THINK:
I'LL GO PACK.
TO TALK OVER.
WHY, ANNA...
I THOUGHT:
YOU'D BE OVERJOYED.
NOT THAT ST. LOUIS
ISN'T BIG,
SEEM VERY BIG:
OUT HERE:
WHERE WE LIVE.
AND WHAT WILL:
THE CHILDREN DO?
THE SAME AS:
THEY DO HERE--
GO TO SCHOOL,
PLAY,
HAVE THEIR:
FRIENDS OVER.
WHAT FRIENDS?
YES. WHAT FRIENDS?
THE FRIENDS:
I DON'T GO
TO SCHOOL.
YOU WILL SOMEDAY,
IF THEY'LL
TAKE YOU IN.
WITH ESTHER GOING
TO BE A SENIOR.
I'VE WORKED
ALL MY LIFE:
TO BE A SENIOR.
AND ROSE IS:
TO BE GRADUATED.
ALL MY FRIENDS:
ARE IN ST. LOUIS.
WHAT ABOUT ME:
AND MY LIFE?
WITH YOU.
IT'S ALL SETTLED.
WE'RE MOVING
TO NEW YORK.
YOU'RE BEING
VERY CALM:
ABOUT THE WAY:
TO THINK ABOUT.
ABOUT EARNING MONEY,
AND ROSE GOING:
TO COLLEGE.
MAYBE ROSE WON'T
HAVE TO GO.
TONIGHT SHE MET:
COLONEL DARLY,
AND HE WAS:
VERY SMITTEN:
WITH HER.
BUT SHE'LL STILL
I HATE, LOATHE, DESPISE,
AND ABOMINATE MONEY.
WHAT ABOUT KATIE,
GRANDPA,
AND THE CHICKENS?
THAT'S A MINOR DETAIL
I'M A MINOR
DETAIL, AM I?
ABOUT THE CHICKENS.
NEVER MIND:
WHAT HAPPENS:
TO YOUR FAMILY.
TALK ABOUT:
THE CHICKENS.
NOW...
I GUESS YOU'RE ALL
A LITTLE EXCITED.
CALMLY TOMORROW.
AS ONLY KATIE:
CAN MAKE IT.
I CAN'T MOVE
TO NEW YORK.
LADY BABBIE GOES
WHEREVER I GO.
YOU'RE GOING
TO KEEP HER:
IN A TENEMENT?
DON'T THEY
HAVE HOUSES:
IN NEW YORK?
RICH PEOPLE:
HAVE HOUSES.
PEOPLE LIKE US:
LIVE IN FLATS.
IF WE COULD:
STAY HERE.
I'D RATHER GO
WITH THE ORPHALINS
AT THE:
ORPHALINS' HOME.
WHAT ABOUT THE:
WORLD'S FAIR?
JUST WHEN:
ST. LOUIS
WAS GOING:
OF ATTRACTION.
KATIE, IT'S AS LIGHT
AS A FEATHER.
IN THAT STOVE.
THEY HAVE LITTLE
ANNA, HOW'S THIS?
OH, IT'S
TOO MUCH, LONNIE.
THIS IS YOUR:
FAVORITE, ROSE.
NO, THANK YOU.
I'LL HAVE SOME
LATER BEFORE BED.
ESTHER?
NO, PAPA.
ICE CREAM.
GRANDPA, I GUESS YOU
CAN HANDLE THIS, HUH?
THANKS.
YOU CAN HAVE:
THE CANDY FLOWER,
TOOTIE.
NO, THANK YOU.
I'M STARTING
A TUNNEL TOMORROW
FROM OUR GARDEN:
RIGHT UNDER THE:
STREETCAR TRACKS
INTO MRS.
MIDDLETON'S TERRACE.
WHILE SHE'S WALKING
AROUND HER LAWN,
I'LL GRAB HER
BY THE LEG.
IT'LL TAKE MONTHS.
I'M NOT GOING
TILL I'M FINISHED.
DON'T USE
THAT IMPUDENT TONE.
SHE'S JUST
STATING A FACT.
EXCUSE ME.
HOW ABOUT:
NOT TONIGHT, LONNIE.
I--I'VE GOT
EXCUSE ME.
AREN'T YOU AFRAID
WITH A CRIMINAL?
THAT'S WHAT I'M BEING
TREATED LIKE.
AFTER ALL, I'M TRYING
TO GIVE:
MY GRATEFUL FAMILY
EVERYTHING THEY DESERVE.
THAT'S WORSE
THAN MURDER.
I'M WRECKING
EVERYBODY'S LIFE.
NOW, LONNIE,
WHY, THAT'S
WHAT WE'LL DO.
NOW, EAT
YOUR CAKE, DEAR.
YOU PLAY, ANNA.
IT'S BEEN
A LONG TIME.
WHATEVER MADE YOU
THINK OF THAT?
AHEM!
" OF DARK
AND FAIR WEATHER-- "
IN YOUR KEY.
" THROUGH
THE YEARS "
" OF DARK
FROM MY HEART...
