S1 • E44 Nov 8, 1986 26mThe deafening hoof-beats of Jimmy's horse at full gallop fails to drown out Pollyanna's excitement about escorting James and Ruth from the train station after breakfast . . . that is, before Nancy explains Pollyanna the necessity of dining alone since Polly has chosen to privately grieve in isolation; sensing a deviant diagnostic, Pollyanna races off in search of her aunt. A collaborative cerebral computation sequence becomes the preamble for Pollyanna to discover Polly at Thomas's former clinic dividing her energies between weeping profusely and emphasizing her desire for solitude; while Pollyanna grapples with her frustration at there being nothing to be glad about aside from Ruth and James's pending arrival, Mr. Pendleton is perplexed at why Jimmy is none too thrilled about Ruth bring James to Beldingsville while lamenting at there not being much he can do to help Harrington-ke. Mr. Pendleton deciding to make the trip anyway ultimately becomes exactly what the doctor ordered when a weeping Pollyanna greets him at the door frustrated that she cannot get her aunt back on track; even while bolstered by the counsel of tempered expectations, Pollyanna finds that getting her aunt back on track is easier said than done -- especially when the train from Boston converges on Beldingsville with Ruth and James on board!!!
