Captain Kasgrov, I'm sorry to

interrupt you and Miss Norris.

But we have to finish

with the sale of shares.

And we promised that you

would leave an autograph...

on shares worth more than $ 1000.

Okay.

I have a pen with me. You'd better

come here, where it's light.

Wait here.

Exactly at this place.

I will very soon return it to you.

What's going on with you, Jodie Norris?

What happened to you?

Such sales your Pearson

Falls has not yet seen.

I was just going to say goodbye to you.

I must go home.

- Are you joking.

- No truth, it's very late.

Good night.

And it's all?

I liked to dance.

True?

Please, do not accompany me.

Of course, I was going to...

You are welcome.

Hey, Babe!

- The airplane is in order, nobody touched it. The keys are in my pocket.

- I thought so.

Give them here.

A girl? You will repeat your

focus with a shortage of fuel.

It's hard to imagine where I'll

end up when the fuel runs out.

Oh, how beautiful this silence is!

I just imagined the flight.

There is not much good here.

Jodi, I'm very stupid.

I did not check the fuel before the flight.

- We have no fuel?

- Yes.

But we are flying well.

We will be floating for a while...

And then...

Give me your hand, Jodi.

I did everything I could.

And you STILL undertake, I know.

But I can be mistaken when landing in

the dark and in an unfamiliar terrain.

I'm not afraid.

Why do not you jump off a parachute

and throw me to the dogs?

I've earned it all. It's my fault.

This is my fault. I WANTED to fly with you.

In such a situation, there

is only one advantage.

A guy can tell a girl what he would

never have dared say for no reason.

What to say?

Why do you think I forgot

to check the fuel?

Because I was thinking about you.

Why is my heart beating so hard

that I can hardly sit on the plane?

Because I'm looking at you.

Some kind of insanity

happens between me and you.

I realized this as soon

as we started to dance.

As soon as I hugged you.

And I realized this even earlier.

I guess I understood this when you were

chewing sandwiches with a sleepy face.

Understood what?

What happened? That I found you.

And even if I do not see you again, there

already exists someone whom I will always love.

Wait, Jodi.

Forget. Do not.

What happened? You have plenty of fuel.

Of course, it's full. I just

wanted to "pin" on you.

- What for?

- This is such a trick to get a kiss from a girl.

Come on... I'll take you home.

But I do not want...

- Do not you realize that I will not be here in three hours.

- I know it will not.

Do you understand everything clearly?

Love...

love, as you imagine it...,

it takes a long time.

And I do not have time.

Come on!

Today is a moonless night.

It's already three o'clock.

- Are you leaving at five?

- About.

- Stop crying.

- I'm not crying.

Do not look at me, please.

Do not, Jody, do not. Listen to me, please.

Why do you think I did it all?

Because I thought that there

could be something between us.

I know, and you thought so too.

And all I can say now...

I have nothing to say.

I'll take you home...

and say goodbye.

Because you just wanted to fool me?

- Because you were sure all this time...?

- Come on!

What do you think I was sure of?

I wanted to be fooled.

Somewhere in France. June 12, 1918.

My dear...

this morning during a

battle at low altitude...

I saw how you looked at me.

And the most expensive

in the whole world...

for me have your eyes and your

voice, screaming inside me:

"You must hold on." You

must return to me, my love.

How can you make medicine

pleasant for the patient?

And why should I take these

nasty medicines myself?

- Hey, Jodi.

- Hi Karina.

Hello, Mr. Norris.

I wanted to buy an ice

cream for today's lunch.

The refrigerator is in that direction, Mrs.

Pearson. I'll escort you.

- Is there news from Alec?

- Everything is very good.

"Red Cross" acquired eight pianos.

This is an entire industry.

- Papa believes that it will be possible to return Alex from the army.

- How amazing.

Very hot, I would like something to drink.

- Clubhouse, as always?

- No.

Do you have milk? Normal cold milk.

Of course.

Mr. Norris!

Do you have anything from burns?

Something serious?

These boys came up with a new game -

to shoot each other with firecrackers.

I'll take the medical kit. Why

did not you bring them here?

They would not have gone.

- Hey, Bell.

- Hey, Miss Jody.

Well, the heat!

Do you want something cold?

Can a cherry cocktail?

- Can I have milk, too?

- Of course.

Why does everyone want milk?

- Do not you like it?

- Absolutely not.

In my position you will drink it

with pleasure. Whole glasses.

All right.

Karina?

Oh, I'm so glad.

Oh, Mrs. Pearson.

There is nothing more beautiful in the world than a

bunch of children around. Nothing more beautiful.

Mama! Mama! Go home quickly...

my brother is fighting. He is bad.

- Oh, Werdzhi!

- But it's bad. He swallowed my fireworks.

Oh my God. Can I leave you?

Mrs. Ingham, Mrs. Ingham!

It's me in five years. Bye, Jodi.

Bye, Karina.

"Now I must say goodbye, Mrs. Norris."

Goodbye, Doctor Potter.

- Thank you for your advice.

- Good.

Is there any doubt, Dr. Hunt?

What about your position? None.

Why then did you need this consultation?

You need to undergo an examination.

Come back tomorrow.

I did not intend to return to

New York for a few more months.

Until I could still work.

Come tomorrow with your husband.

He is now in France, Dr. Hunt.

In any case, you should know this.

Dr. Potter and I discovered circumstances

that required surgical intervention.

Interventions?

Yes, or you will be constantly

at risk of peritonitis.

And I'm warning you for this case.

Then I die?

Yes.

That's why I and Dr. Potter believe that

we need to do this as soon as possible.

This is not a complicated operation. You will

only stay in the hospital for five days.

This is a very difficult situation.

I can tell you one thing for sure.

During the operation, you

will lose your child.

Clear.

This is a very difficult problem

for you and your husband.

You do not need to babysit me.

It will be better in any case.

So, let's see.

When can I take you to the hospital?

But first I have to go home and

make the necessary preparations.

I did not say anything to my father

about this... And I will not tell.

Who is this Mrs. Cascat whom

you want to visit in New York?

- You do not know her.

- But you never told about her.

I met her at the cousin

Margie last summer...

and then I met her again the next day.

But you're going to her in New

York in the middle of summer!

This is some kind of absurdity. Crazy idea.

I will not be just a week.

Obesity, more likely!

I'm not going to faint. I just felt dizzy.

You're so impressionable, Bernard.

The city newspaper should

not publish such things.

But now there's a war, Bernard.

That time I spent most of

the day with this guy.

He still stands before my eyes.
