I hate it.

I'll never want

to play it again.

Leave me alone.

Please try to understand,

Pollyanna.

Youre such a part

of our lives now.

Nancy and Angelica,

Mrs. Lagerlof.

And I love you as if

you were my own little girl.

Won't you give me

that chance?

Please?

- Put these in too, Mr. Thomas.

- All right.

And tell Dr. Chilton

that the car's all ready.

Yes.

Yes, we're leaving immediately

on the 11:
30 train.

Well, check

the arrival schedule.

Make sure we're met

with an ambulance.

I want complete X rays the minute

we arrive. Yes. Thank you.

Is the operation

dangerous?

Yes, it's very

delicate.

Youre coming,

aren't you?

I need your permission

to operate.

Edmond.

There's something worrying you,

and I want to know what it is.

We can only do so much with surgery.

A great deal depends on her.

This depression

she's got herself into,

that's what's worrying me.

Edmond.

She's had a shook.

She's just learned about her legs.

I can't have her despondent

like this for the operation.

- Well, you have to give her time.

- Time? There is no time.

I have to move her, get her into

the hospital, and I dont like it.

What that child needs is

a good shot in the arm of hope.

Hope? What she really

needed was love.

And that's something

I never gave her.

We can still give her

that love.

You and I together.

Mum, mum, there's something

very peculiar happening outside.

Miss Harrington! They'll-

They'll ruin our fewer beds!

- What are you talking about?

- Across the lawns and the flowers.

W- We've gotta do something.

I've gotta stop 'em.

I've got to get 'em

out of there!

That's what I've been

trying to tell you.

Been trying to tell me what?

Oh, not the begonias!

Oh, my goodness.

Them's Miss Harringtons

favorite flowers.

Now, please, folks,

go around the other way.

Dont come through there.

You can go around that tree.

Now, look, go around

over by the driveway!

I-

Oh, the heck with it.

What is it you want?

We dont want anything.

We just come to say,

''Howd ya do?'' to the child...

and bring a bit of gladness

into her life.

Like she brought into ours,

God love her.

We just want her to know

she's got friends, lots of them.

Give her our love,

and we'll get off your private

property, Miss Harrington.

Oh, no, uh, wait.

Why dont you

tell her yourself?

Open the doors, Nancy.

Nancy, pen the door.

Come in, won't you?

Nice to see you.

Hello. How are you, Mr. Neely?

Just fine. How are you?

Hello. Won't you come in?

Oh, what beautiful flowers.

Hello. I'm so glad

you came. Hello.

You have a few callers

downstairs, young lady.

What?

Are you going to greet them with

that mopey old face of yours?

I dont wanna see anyone.

Well, Pollyanna, youre not gonna have

much choice in the matter this time.

Oh, no, please, I dont

want to see anyone.

Just easy.

Youll be all right, dear.

I know.

You get well now,

you hear?

It's not charity, just a gift

from one friend to another.

Oh, thank you,

Mr. Neely.

Hi, honey. Youre going to be fine.

Dont you worry.

Good-bye, darling. We're going

to visit you in the hospital.

Hey, snookie.

Take a look at this, will ya?

Really? You mean, really?

You did it!

Oh, Nancy!

- It's gorgeous.

- Isn't it?

And we're going to wait for you.

Youre going to be my flower girl.

I'm glad youll be

coming back to us, darling,

and that's

the truth of it.

The house'll be

miserable without you.

Miserable.

You hurry back to us.

Best wishes, Pollyanna.

Good-bye.

Good-bye, Angelica.

Hurry home to us.

What is everybody

sniffing about?

My goodness.

A bunch of ninnies.

Think a person

couldnt get well.

- Hi, Mrs. Snow.

- Oh, bless you.

Bless you, darling.

I'll see you soon.

- Thank you for coming.

- It's all right.

- Bye.

- Good-bye.

Hello, Pollyanna.

Hello, dear. We have

a surprise for you.

Shall we tell her now, Jimmy?

I've been adopted.

Adopted?

Who?

Who? Well,

who do you think?

We're gonna spend the rest of

our lives just hanging prisms.

You hurry home and help.

Hello, Mrs. Ford.

Hello, Reverend Ford.

We looked for the good in them,

and we found it, didn't we?

Aunt Polly?

- Bye, Pollyanna.

- Bye-bye.

- Bye-bye.

- Bye.
