1. Time...
Copy !req
2. Is a slippery devil.
Copy !req
3. Our lives are sudden.
Copy !req
4. They come and go like...
Copy !req
5. Like a summer shower.
Copy !req
6. Oh, my glob!
Copy !req
7. You got the part!
Copy !req
8. Ah. Ha!
I did?
Copy !req
9. Well, not that part.
Copy !req
10. You were terrible.
Copy !req
11. But you can be
my personal assistant.
Copy !req
12. Well...
Copy !req
13. I guess
I have to start somewhere.
Copy !req
14. Start with my laundry.
Copy !req
15. Our lives are sudden.
Copy !req
16. They come and go like
a summer shower.
Copy !req
17. That was great!
Copy !req
18. Well, maybe not "great,"
Copy !req
19. but you were a lot better
than those others.
Copy !req
20. - Hey!
- Hey!
Copy !req
21. - Hi, Viola.
- Hi, dad.
Copy !req
22. How's my big-shot
actress daughter?
Copy !req
23. Did you get that part
you wanted?
Copy !req
24. Oh, yeah, the part...
Copy !req
25. Sure, I got the part.
Copy !req
26. Well, I think that's great.
Just great.
Copy !req
27. Seriously,
that's so good to hear.
Copy !req
28. Sometimes I wonder if maybe
I haven't been the best dad.
Copy !req
29. Maybe I blew it.
Copy !req
30. But you getting that part,
Copy !req
31. that makes my entire life
seem worthwhile!
Copy !req
32. Mmm.
Copy !req
33. You're great, kid!
Copy !req
34. Aww, you're great, dad!
Copy !req
35. Dad, I have to go.
Copy !req
36. I have a rehearsal.
Copy !req
37. That's cool.
Go get 'em, kid.
Copy !req
38. I do hope
that Nigel had no trouble
Copy !req
39. at chelmsyhead station.
Copy !req
40. There are never any taxi cabs
to be found...
Copy !req
41. What have I found here?
Copy !req
42. Is it a little mouse?
Copy !req
43. People,
look what I found!
Copy !req
44. It's a little mouse!
Copy !req
45. Everyone else
is really a square,
Copy !req
46. working together as a team,
helping the author/director.
Copy !req
47. Everyone has
the team spirit!
Copy !req
48. Everyone except
the selfish little mouse!
Copy !req
49. I'm sorry, I was...
Copy !req
50. Don't interrupt me
when I'm berating you!
Copy !req
51. When are we going to
resume rehearsing?
Copy !req
52. Don't interrupt me
when I'm berating my assistant
Copy !req
53. for interrupting me...
Copy !req
54. Unless you want some, too!
Copy !req
55. Well, no.
Copy !req
56. I can't remember
what I was saying.
Copy !req
57. Assistant,
read me back my notes.
Copy !req
58. Hmm.
Copy !req
59. You were wrapping it up so
we could get back to rehearsal.
Copy !req
60. Okay...
Let's rehearse!
Copy !req
61. Mr. Cramforth
will be drenched
Copy !req
62. if he walks to the cottage
from the station.
Copy !req
63. Poor suffering Nigel!
Copy !req
64. Um...
Copy !req
65. "But he"...
Copy !req
66. But he is
so awfully amusing.
Copy !req
67. Coming down
like cats and dogs.
Copy !req
68. Reminds me
of the rain we had...
Copy !req
69. Too much water on the coat!
Copy !req
70. It's not a hurricane!
Copy !req
71. Again!
Copy !req
72. Coming down
like cats and...
Copy !req
73. That's too light!
It's not a drizzle!
Copy !req
74. Hey, Viola!
Copy !req
75. Viola!
Copy !req
76. Here, girl!
Copy !req
77. Come on,
I want to show you something.
Copy !req
78. I think it's gonna rain soon,
so I'm gonna show you
Copy !req
79. what real summer showers
look like.
Copy !req
80. And I want you to make
little sketches of raindrops
Copy !req
81. as reference material.
Copy !req
82. Do you really think
this is worthwhile?
Copy !req
83. Yes! Gah!
Copy !req
84. How can I explain this
as simply as possible?
Copy !req
85. In my play, I don't want to see
big, big gloopy raindrops.
Copy !req
86. And I don't want to see
teeny-weeny, tiny raindrops.
Copy !req
87. What I want to see is raindrops
that are just right.
Copy !req
88. Neither too big nor too...
Copy !req
89. Stop interrupting me
when I'm trying
Copy !req
90. to explain things
childishly!
Copy !req
91. Every element
of "summer showers"
Copy !req
92. has to have class.
Copy !req
93. You know,
I may be a princess,
Copy !req
94. but when people meet me,
they don't think "princess."
Copy !req
95. They think
"lumpy space princess."
Copy !req
96. I bet if I was
"Princess Bubblegum buns"
Copy !req
97. or "sugar plum buns princess"
or something,
Copy !req
98. things would be
way different.
Copy !req
99. They have absolutely
no imagination!
Copy !req
100. I'm the one
who has imagination!
Copy !req
101. I'm the one
who's special!
Copy !req
102. I think my play
will prove that...
Copy !req
103. I've had
a really crummy life.
Copy !req
104. Everything was okay
when I was a little kid.
Copy !req
105. And I could just hang out by
myself and make up little games.
Copy !req
106. Have you tried talking
about this with anyone else?
Copy !req
107. No!
Copy !req
108. It's part of your job!
Copy !req
109. You're lucky,
it's starting to rain.
Copy !req
110. Now, pay close attention
to these raindrops.
Copy !req
111. You should fill
the whole sketchbook!
Copy !req
112. I want to see some classy
raindrops on opening night!
Copy !req
113. It's so good to see you, Nigel.
Copy !req
114. Let chelmsford
take your overcoat.
Copy !req
115. Very well, Tree Trunks.
Copy !req
116. Her name is Miranda Hobson!
Copy !req
117. I don't know if I can call
Tree Trunks by that other name.
Copy !req
118. It seems dishonest.
Copy !req
119. This play is set
in a country called eng-land.
Copy !req
120. And in eng-land,
anyone called Tree Trunks
Copy !req
121. is always called
"Miranda Hobson"
Copy !req
122. during the summer.
Copy !req
123. I didn't know that.
Copy !req
124. Yeah.
Copy !req
125. So let's... whoa!
Copy !req
126. How did you get here?
Copy !req
127. I locked the d...
Never mind.
Copy !req
128. Have you finally figured out
what rain looks like?
Copy !req
129. Let's take it from the top!
Copy !req
130. Coming down
like cats and dogs.
Copy !req
131. Reminds me of the rain we had
when mother was still alive.
Copy !req
132. It'll have to do.
Copy !req
133. Still lots to finish!
Copy !req
134. Stay sharp!
Copy !req
135. Keep it classy!
Copy !req
136. Let's take it from act two!
Copy !req
137. How lovely you looked
this afternoon, Tree Trunks...
Copy !req
138. Miranda!
Copy !req
139. Miranda Hobson.
Copy !req
140. Oh, Nigel!
Copy !req
141. You've always made me smile,
even when we met,
Copy !req
142. as children
at the badminton tournament.
Copy !req
143. You were such
a mischievous little boy...
Copy !req
144. And you still are.
Copy !req
145. Mwah!
Copy !req
146. I admit
I feel quite sleepy!
Copy !req
147. The summer showers always
did affect you that way.
Copy !req
148. I'll let him rest.
Copy !req
149. After all,
the rain can't last forever.
Copy !req
150. That wasn't too bad,
actually.
Copy !req
151. Yes, hello.
Copy !req
152. Miranda Hobson speaking.
Copy !req
153. Yes, Ms. Hobson,
you won't remember me,
Copy !req
154. but my name is wilfrid.
Copy !req
155. We met in April
at the Chestnut festival
Copy !req
156. at
St. Margaret's school.
Copy !req
157. I'm between trains
and I thought I might drop by.
Copy !req
158. No visitors
to bulkley cottage all season,
Copy !req
159. and now two in one day!
Copy !req
160. The doors open in an hour.
Here's a pep talk.
Copy !req
161. Tonight is your night
to be special,
Copy !req
162. 'cause you're in
a pretty darn special play...
Copy !req
163. Written by me.
Copy !req
164. Directed by a pretty special
director... also me.
Copy !req
165. - Hey, Viola!
- Yes, director LSP?
Copy !req
166. Where's our leading lady?
Oh, there you are!
Copy !req
167. What's the matter? You look
like you're going to throw up.
Copy !req
168. I'm going to have to
back out of the play.
Copy !req
169. What?
Copy !req
170. When I told Mr. Pig
about the kissing scene,
Copy !req
171. he didn't take it well.
Copy !req
172. Kissing scene?
Copy !req
173. K-kissing scene?
Copy !req
174. Kissing scene!
Copy !req
175. I'm dreadfully sorry.
Copy !req
176. You can't do this to me!
Copy !req
177. Who else knows
all the lines?
Copy !req
178. Who else could possibly
take your place at the 11th hour
Copy !req
179. and be a big hero!
Copy !req
180. Viola!
Copy !req
181. Your excited gasp
just gave me an idea!
Copy !req
182. I'll play the part!
Copy !req
183. She sells seashells
by the seashore.
Copy !req
184. She sells seashells
by the seashore.
Copy !req
185. Aah!
Copy !req
186. I'm sorry!
Copy !req
187. Are you really here, or are you,
like, an eye floater?
Copy !req
188. I've been usurped!
Copy !req
189. I can't believe this is
our last summer here.
Copy !req
190. But everything changes,
I suppose.
Copy !req
191. Oh, one thing
hasn't changed...
Copy !req
192. You've never looked
lovelier...
Copy !req
193. Miranda Hobson.
Copy !req
194. I'll let him rest.
Copy !req
195. After all,
the rain can't last forever.
Copy !req
196. How long have we been sitting
here on the couch, wilfrid?
Copy !req
197. Ages and ages.
Copy !req
198. But not nearly long enough!
Copy !req
199. One looks for a little
brightness to warm the days.
Copy !req
200. I thought that Nigel cramforth
had that brightness.
Copy !req
201. But now I see
that doesn't matter.
Copy !req
202. For you have a different kind
of brightness...
Copy !req
203. A kindness that will always
make the cold ham
Copy !req
204. and bitter rain of eng-land
seem like hot tea,
Copy !req
205. and sweet strawberry jam,
and summer showers.
Copy !req
206. Whoo! Viola!
That's my girl!
Copy !req
207. You were great, kid!
Copy !req
208. Thanks, but it's not
as if I wrote the play.
Copy !req
209. That was...
Copy !req
210. I should be mad...
Copy !req
211. But you were so amazing!
Copy !req
212. She's quite the actress.
Copy !req
213. What?
No, the acting was fine...
Copy !req
214. But the rain!
Copy !req
215. It looked so real
on the overcoats!
Copy !req
216. How did you do it?
Copy !req
217. This play is gonna run
for 20 years!
Copy !req
218. That was my job,
actually...
Copy !req
219. Putting raindrops
on the overcoats.
Copy !req
220. I only went on stage
as a last-minute replacement.
Copy !req
221. You mean you did
the special effects!
Copy !req
222. You're amazing, kid!
Copy !req
223. Aww...
Copy !req
224. You're amazing, dad!
Copy !req
225. You're amazing!
Copy !req
226. You're amazing!
Copy !req
227. This party is so crazy!
Copy !req
