The Fallin' Out:剧情介绍

Plot Summary:Andrew Stebbins, an aged farmer, who has grown peevish and irritable, abuses his kind old wife over a trifling incident and being in his dotage decides to try and obtain a divorce. Mrs. Stebbins tries to placate him to no avail and he hitches up his old horse and drives to the village, bent on a legal separation. Meeting at the office of the village lawyer, he enters and states his errand. The disciple of Blackstone has known Farmer Stebbins for years and he tries to dissuade him from the step, telling him he has no cause for separation and that Aunt Betsey is the most indulgent of wives. But the old man is stubborn and to humor him the lawyer prepares the preliminary papers. Andrew then climbs into his buggy and starts for home with the legal document tucked in his pocket. Becoming drowsy, he falls asleep and the old family horse jogs along at will, stopping to crop the grass from the roadside, and finally halting at the watering trough at the forks of the road. The occupant of the buggy dreams and in his fancy his boyhood days are recalled. How, as a barefoot boy, he was the sweetheart of Betsey at school; their first quarrel and the final consummation of their love: their walk out of the church yard, married and happy at the bright prospect of life. He sees Betsey with silvered hair ministering to his wants when he is ill, the kind companion. He sees her in his fancy doing the chores while he is sick, always the same sweet, kind, considerate woman, forgiving and indulgent. Andrew awakes from the sleep and slowly picks up the reins and heads the horse homeward. The dream has impressed him. He sees himself in his true colors and the injustice of his recent action is made all too plain. Arriving at the farm, he sees the candle gleaming in the window, a beacon light to welcome him home. The candle has been placed there for years whenever he has been driving to town. He enters the kitchen and finds a steaming supper on the table awaiting him. Betsey is all kindness and he feels remorse. She heaps his plate with food and for the first time in years, he does not complain. The food is cooked to his taste. He smiles on Betsey and she is happy. After supper she brings him his pipe and he pulls the document out of his pocket and bids her light it by the blaze of the lamp. He lights his pipe with the paper and takes the old lady in his arms, eminently satisfied and contrite.
