:27:08
Fidelia!
This is a nice surprise.
:27:11
I thought I'd run down and see
how you all was getting along.
:27:15
- Just about the way you predicted.
- We miss you, Fidelia.
:27:18
You just give me that apron and let
Fidelia finish what you was doing.
:27:21
Nothing of the kind.
You must be tired. Now sit down.
:27:24
Child, would you mind
running along?
:27:26
I got some troublement I wants
to unburden onto your mother.
:27:29
- You go on upstairs, dear.
- I'll come up and tuck you in.
:27:32
All right.
:27:34
Mother, remind me to tell you
about the momentous deal I made.
:27:37
All right, honey.
:27:39
- Sit here, Fidelia.
- Thank you.
:27:43
You see, Miz Hilton,
it's this way...
:27:45
them uptown folks
is all right in their way,
:27:47
but it's that lazy trash
they got working for 'em.
:27:49
Miz Hilton, I just won't abode
in the same quarters with them.
:27:53
When I finishes my work,
I wants my solitude
:27:55
and I wants my privitation.
:27:57
Fidelia, I'd do anything
if I could have you back,
:28:00
- but things aren't any better...
- I knows.
:28:02
Your bills
is runnin' awful high.
:28:04
"High" isn't the word for it.
But how do you know?
:28:08
I hopes you won't think
I'm buttin' in,
:28:10
but I been keepin'
mighty close touch,
:28:12
and when I heard tell this afternoon
about that Colonel Smellett...
:28:16
And here I'm makin'
all that easy money,
:28:18
and I reflects maybe you wouldn't
mind renting me my old room.
:28:21
Now, you know I'd never
take any money from you.
:28:24
That room was always yours,
and it always will be.
:28:27
I figured you wouldn't take my money,
so I got it figured out.
:28:30
I can work here on my days off,
and nights, too.
:28:32
I'm strong as a horse.
:28:34
Oh, no. You're not as young
as you used to be.
:28:37
You're not gonna do
any work for us.
:28:39
It'll be wonderful
just to have you in the house.
:28:42
Miz Hilton, that's the most beautiful
thing I ever heard anybody say
:28:46
in all my born days.
:28:49
If you don't mind,
I'll just go get my bag.
:28:52
You shouldn't bother
going back for it tonight.
:28:54
It ain't no bother, Miz Hilton.
It's sittin' right here.
