:22:07
- Who is it?
- It's Adam, your husband.
:22:11
Come in, Adam.
:22:17
Good night, boys.
:22:30
I thought you'd be in bed.
:22:32
Did you?
:22:35
It's been a right busy day.
:22:37
You must be kind of tuckered out.
:22:39
That's right.
:22:41
Shall I...
:22:43
...turn down the covers?
:22:45
You can if you like.
:22:48
But I'm not going to bed.
:22:52
You don't want a wife, Adam.
:22:54
You want a cook, a washerwoman.
:22:56
A hired girl.
:22:58
A hired girl's got a right
to her own sleeping place.
:23:01
- Reckon that's so.
- In the wagon, you let me talk...
:23:05
...make a fool of myself,
talking about you and me.
:23:08
You should have stopped me.
:23:11
Maybe I should have...
:23:14
...but it sounded real pretty.
:23:17
Besides...
:23:18
...if I'd told you,
you might not have married me.
:23:21
And I wanted you to marry me.
I wanted it real bad.
:23:24
Sure, because I was young and strong,
and there was lots of work in me.
:23:28
That's partly true.
:23:30
It's a hard life here
in the forest and wilderness.
:23:33
There's trees waiting to be felled...
:23:35
...land waiting to be plowed
and fenced, stock to be fed.
:23:39
A man wants a wife
who can work alongside of him.
:23:45
Of course...
:23:47
...if she's got eyes
that are bluer than cornflowers...
:23:52
...and hair the color of wheat
in the sunshine...
:23:56
...he counts himself real fortunate.
