Episode 35 The Sky over the Alps
Grandpa!!!
I'm home!
Really?!
Grandpa...
Heidi...
How did you get here? Tell me what happened.
I've returned home...
...because in Frankfurt...
You've returned, you say?
I don't understand. Did you run away?
Or did they throw you out of that place?
No, they didn't throw me out.
Clara, Grandma, and Mr. Sesemann have been very kind to me.
Then what happened?
No, it was me.
I wanted to come back to the mountains.
I dreamt about you.
I didn't like living there.
You dreamt about me?
Sometimes I was so anxious, I couldn't even breathe.
What are you saying, child?
But I couldn't return.
When I mentioned I wanted to come back here,...
...Clara became very sad and her illness got worse.
One day, Mr. Sesemann told me to come back home.
I think it was Clara's doctor who had this idea.
A doctor?
But, were you sick?
No, I wasn't sick.
I just remembered, I brought a letter from Mr. Sesemann.
He told me to deliver it to you as soon as I got here.
This is also for you.
How kind of him.
I'm very thirsty!
It's so good! You fixed this thing.
I wanted to return so much...
Now it really is the firs!
In Frankfurt, when the carriages passed by,...
...I thought it was the firs whispering!
And I ran out the door!
I'm so happy! This is really the firs' song!
Yes, little one. The song you like so much.
I have read the letter.
What does Mr. Sesemann say?
You thought they had thrown me out, didn't you?
Don't get angry.
He says you thought constantly about the mountains.
Heidi, do you really wish to stay here and live with me, forever?
What?! Of course I want to stay!
This is where I like to live. It's my home!
Isn't it, Grandpa? Tell me, isn't it?
Heidi...
You're right. Very much so...
Wonderful!
What's wrong, Grandpa?
What?... Oh, nothing.
Come, let's go inside.
But Heidi, did you come all the way from Frankfurt, dressed like that?
No, I took off my new dress at Peter's house.
Why?
It was too new, Grandpa!
I couldn't roll in the grass in it!
Of course! Ha-ha!
I'm sure you're prettier like this than in that new dress!
Yes, I look better!
Everything is just the same!
Are you making cheese?
Later.
I want to help you, like before.
Very well, then.
Heidi, I have kept your dress.
Here, this is for you.
Here, I'll put it on.
What's wrong?
I doesn't fit...
Hmm?
It's too small...
It doesn't fit?
Of course! I've grown a lot, Grandpa!
I see...
Can't you see it's too small?
Very good. Tomorrow, I'll go to Dorfli...
...and buy you some new dresses and a new bed.
You like that?
I don't need anything, really.
I'll sleep on my hay bed, and Clara gave me a lot of dresses.
They are all in my luggage.
I forgot, I asked the baker at Dorfli if he would keep it for me.
The baker?
Yes, I told him that you would pick it up for me.
OK, I'll go get it tomorrow.
I want to see my bed.
It isn't here...
Grandpa, my bed isn't here.
Grandpa, tell me what happened?
Nothing... I removed it a long time ago...
Why?
You see...
I wasn't expecting you to return so soon.
In fact, I wasn't sure I would see you again, little one.
You thought I wouldn't return ever again, Grandpa?
Did you really think that?
Well, you see...
The thing is, Heidi...
I thought that you would prefer living in the city...
But on the other hand, I couldn't believe that you would forget so soon...
...about your mountains, Joseph, or Peter...
To be honest, I didn't know what to think.
Grandpa...
But you've come back, my child.
You're here, it's not a dream, it's really you, Heidi.
Grandpa...
Now, we'll make your bed with fresh hay,...
...just like the one you used to have.
A soft, fragrant bed for my little Heidi.
Yes! Let's do it!
At once, then!
So nice... Smells so nice...
It's done! Just like my old one!
Grandpa...
What is it?
This is my bed, isn't it?
Of course it is.
And this is my house, isn't it?
Yes, but... Why are you sad?
I'm happy... So very happy.
Heidi...
This is my bed! This is my home!!
Grandpa...
Yes?
- Grandpa!! - Heidi...
That's Peter...
Peter returning with the herd!
Peter!
Wha..?
Peter!
Heidi...
That's really Heidi!
Schwanli, Baerli! I'm back!
You all remember me!
Hold still!
Jinglebell!
Peter? Peter, I'm back!
Peter, can't you hear me? Have you gone mute?
Jeez, you're just the same as when you left.
That's not true, I've grown a lot.
They had to make me some new dresses.
So you're staying here for good?
Yes, and starting tomorrow,...
...I'll be coming everyday to the meadows with all of you!
That's great!! Splendid! Heidi's back!
Snowflake!
Snowflake! What's wrong with her, she won't listen to me.
Bah, that's Snowflake's daughter.
What?
Look, Snowflake is just behind you!
Snowflake!
You've grown so much!
Mr. Strahl will never again think of getting rid of you!
I'm so happy to see you.
You're so cute. Your mum was just like you when I met her.
Hey, General!
Don't dawdle so much! It's growing dark!
Yes! Bye, Heidi. Will you come up with me tomorrow?
Sure, I told you already.
Hey, what are you doing?
All of you, get going! Hurry up, darn it!
Go home, listen to Peter. We'll see each other tomorrow again!
Come on!
What are we going to do now?
Come, let's go... Move it...
Bye, until morning!
Good bye!
Hey, are you tired?
Heidi, let's milk the goats. Let's see if you remember.
Allow me to do it!
Right. Let me fetch a bucket and a stool.
Yes!
Schwanli, Baerli, how are you doing?
Grandpa, Grandpa!
Huh? What is it?
Look here. Why is her belly so big?
Is she sick?
No, Heidi, it's that she'll be having a little one soon.
A little one?
Schwanli, you're having a baby. You must be very happy.
Heidi had thought that nothing had changed since her departure.
Now she understands that life is a succession of marvellous events.
Snowflake is mother to a small kid goat,...
...and Schwanli will very soon have her own offspring.
It's so very good.
Give me some more.
That's your third helping, now.
It may harm you to drink so much milk.
It's just that it's so tasty...
In Frankfurt, I never tasted any milk as good as this.
Very well, as you wish. Have a little more.
And the cheese there wasn't as tasty as this one.
But in Frankfurt you would have eaten better things,...
...than what we have here, more assorted foods.
Soup, salad, fish, desserts,...
...and many other fine things.
But I didn't care much for all that.
No?
Of course not, Grandpa.
In Frankfurt, there were no mountains, nor any meadows to play in like we do here.
And no goats, ibises, or hawks...
And you could barely see the sun, due to all the roofs.
And then... and then...
Heidi...
There also was no Joseph, or Peter, or you, Grandpa.
That's enough, Heidi.
I want to be here, always.
I like it better living in the Alps.
Heidi...
Go on. Eat at your ease.
What's wrong?
It's disappeared.
What's disappeared?
Finish your dinner quickly.
You're very tired.
It's out there!
Who's out there?!
There's someone, Grandpa. I saw him.
Who's there?!
It's me! Joseph, shut up!
Peter?
What are you doing here at this hour?
Peter... What's wrong?
You see...
Peter?
Here. I came to bring you this.
What is it?
They are nuts. I got them around the mountain.
Thanks, Peter!
Now, General, come in. Don't stay out here.
May I come in?
Of course you can!
Why did you come here so late, Peter?
Well, it's just that Grandma told me...
Grandma?
Yes, she asked if I was sure that you had returned to stay for good with your Grandpa,...
...or if you were returning again to Frankfurt, so I...
And that's why you came up here?
And so why didn't you just come in?
Because... I was scared of your Grandpa.
Afraid of my Grandpa?
Ever since you left, he's become even scarier to face than before.
He wouldn't listen to a word I said.
Grandpa...
Very well, general.
Once you return home, tell your Grandmother...
...that Heidi is never leaving this place.
She prefers our mountains over any city in the whole world.
She just told me and I know she isn't lying.
Did you really say that?
Didn't you hear? I'm never again leaving this place.
You know that, Peter.
But... but...
Will you never leave, whatever happens?
Yes.
Whatever happens.
That's great!
Wait a moment!
I brought this present for you.
No, thank you. I don't want it.
You don't?
Don't you like it?
- Then... - Don't worry!
What about this?
You can put stuff in it.
This one I like. Thank you very much.
Come, Heidi. Finish your dinner.
Have dinner with us, Peter.
Now that you're relaxed, you must be hungry.
No, I can't stay.
I have to go now.
Leaving so soon?
A glutton like you? We have smoked meat.
But...
Go on, stay for dinner!
I can't today, really.
Grandma is waiting for me.
Peter.
Very well.
Put this in your basket and you can eat it at home.
Wha...?!
Thanks!
It's great you gave me this basket!
I told you, you could put stuff in it.
That's true!
So many stars! They're so bright!
Well, Heidi, see you tomorrow!
Yes!
Will you come with me to the pastures tomorrow?
Yes.
For real?
Of course I will!
Good bye!
Thanks for the nuts!
Thanks for the basket!
Yippee!
Grandpa...
Hm?
What is it?
It's nothing. Good night.
Bye. See you tomorrow.
Heidi is back again in the cabin.
Under the Alps' starry sky,...
...in the beloved mountains that she missed so much.
This night, in her soft hay bed,...
...the girl's dreams will be more beautiful and happy than ever.
