- Oh, thatJulie Andre.
- Yes, thatJulie Andre!

:39:05
She's been kicked out!
Griggs, how could you let this happen...

:39:07
- after all we do for that college?
- She has not been kicked out.

:39:10
She stands 12th
in her class.

:39:12
She's a lovely, sensitive, marvelous girl,
one that any parent should be proud of.

:39:16
And yet, no one pays
the slightest bit of attention to her.

:39:23
- Thank you, Miss Pritchard.
- Thank you, Mr. Griggs.

:39:38
For a moment I was afraid
there was a baby in it.

:39:40
- What kind of a performance was that?
- For more than two years...

:39:43
that poor girl has been pouring her heart out
to you in those letters.

:39:46
And you haven't
answered one of them.

:39:48
You haven't even
bothered to read one!

:39:51
Now, wait a minute.
That was the arrangement.

:39:54
l-lt had to be done anonymously,
remember? Alec insisted upon that.

:39:56
At least you could've asked about her.
Shown some compassion, some humanity.

:40:01
Hmm. Oh, I see.
:40:03
I see.
You're in love with her.

:40:06
Y- No, Jervis, it's
much worse than that.

:40:08
- She's in love with you.
- Y-What?

:40:10
Although you don't know it, you've been
a thoughtful and considerate guardian.

:40:14
She spent the last two summers
on your farm in Nova Scotia.

:40:17
Although she thinks
Linda's responsible for that.

:40:19
- Linda?
- Your niece.

:40:21
Gertrude's daughter. The one
you haven't seen since she was born.

:40:25
- Oh, yes. Horrible looking baby.
- Well, she's no longer...

:40:27
a horrible looking baby,
and she's Julie's roommate.

:40:30
- Who put them together?
- You did.

:40:32
It was the only way you could arrange for Miss
Andre's summer vacations without causing talk.

:40:37
And last Christmas,
you sent her a nice present.

:40:39
- I did? What?
- Three pairs of... silk pajamas.

:40:43
- Griggs-
- All right. Miss Pritchard selected them.

:40:46
All in all, Miss Andre
has a lot to thank you for...

:40:49
and she's very
devoted to you.

:40:51
She calls you her
"Dear Daddy Longlegs."

:40:54
Y-
"Dear Daddy What-legs?"

:40:55
Well, it has something to do with
your shadow crawling on the wall...

:40:58
- or a spider, uh, uh-
- Oh.
