AKAGE NO ANNE
Hizume no oto
A carriage goes through the gentle hills
Yuruyakana oka wo nutte
Kaketekuru basha
Someone comes to pick me up
Mukae ni kuru no mukae ni kuru no ne
And takes me
Dare ka ga
Watashi wo tsureteyuku no ne
Shiroi hana no michi he
To the avenue with white flowers
To the home of wind
Kaze no furusato he
He takes me
Tsureteyuku no ne
I'm sure
Tsureteyuku no ne
My number is 13
Mid June, Queens is preparing for the entrance exam.
A mock test is being held for the first and last time.
The mock exam is in the same format as the real exam.
All topics will be included.
The whole test will take 3 days.
Anne is so nervous that she cannot eat.
Finally, the release of the results.
We are handing out the results of the mock test and
the exam identification number to the entrance exam.
I will not announce the results but everyone did very well.
If you all keep this up, everyone will make it.
It is also the last day of class, I want a promise from everyone.
That is not to touch your books before the examination
You are all very well-prepared.
Reading before your exam will only tire you out.
Don't think about the exam. Take a stroll.
Also, get ample rest.
I will be going to the exam with all of you.
Alright, come here when I call your name.
Josie Pye. Here
Anne Shirley. Here.
Here's yours, Josie.
Anne here's yours.
Moody Spurgeon.
Here. Charlie Sloan.
Here.
How did you do, Anne?
Alright, I guess.
Ruby Gillis.
Here.
Jane Andrews. Here.
Gilbert Blythe. Here.
Number 13!
That's a very unlucky number.
What number is it?
Number 13.
Anne, it's a very unlucky number.
Why is it unlucky?
Don't you know?
There are a lot of bad legends associated with the number.
I know that but it's merely superstition.
I wouldn't harp over it.
Really? I'm a firm believer in superstitions.
Fortunately it wasn't me who got it.
English 98 marks.
Number 13?
Josie said that it's an unlucky number,
Yes... of course... yes...
Don't bother about those superstition.
Your results will prove them all wrong.
Yes, Anne.
I want to believe that very much, but if only I got another number.
I won't be able to sleep tonight. What if I don't make it?
Then you will re-take it again next year.
I won't have that determination. It's so shameful.
Especially Gilbert... I mean if everyone else got in.
I think this number is going to be trouble.
Really, I never thought you would be this superstitious.
Don't worry, Anne, no matter which number you got,
you are going to be Number 1.
That isn't possible.
I always had a lot of faith in you.
This term is coming to an end.
Today is the last day of Ms Stacy at the school.
3 years have gone by in a flash,
but I remember every moment I shared with all of you,
and all your little expressions.
I have a letter for each of you.
Ms Stacy's farewell is so fuss-free
compared with that of Mr Philips,
however the students' hankies are already soaked.
This shows how attached the students are to her.
Tommy, read it later. You must continue with your research.
Take care.
You must take care too, Ms Stacy.
Next one, Diana Barry.
Here.
Diana, I will never forget your very sweet voice.
Ms Stacy...
Goodbye.
Ms Stacy.
It seems that everything is coming to an end.
Diana, you are so much better off than me.
You can come back here again in the new school term.
But I don't even know if I will get to call it my Alma Mater.
It all depends on my luck.
Everything is going to be different in the new school term.
Ms Stacy won't be here anymore.
You, Jane, Ruby won't be here anymore.
It's meaningless when I have to go for lessons myself.
I don't want another best friend.
Anne, I've really been very happy.
When I think about how everything is ending, I get so upset.
You won't even stop crying, what am I going to do?
I know that your hankie is already soaked.
Now you are making me cry as well.
Maybe I'll be coming here in the new term as well.
Somehow I feel that I won't make it.
But didn't you do very well in the mock test?
Yes, but I'm not excited about it.
I get really nervous when I think about the actual exam.
Moreover, my number is 13.
That's nothing to worry about.
I want so much to go to Charlottesville with you.
We can go shopping together like we used to do.
It seems impossible at this point.
You must be burning the midnight oil every night now?
Ms Stacy made us promise that we wouldn't touch our books.
She wants us to get ample rest and not worry about the exam.
I don't think I can do that.
I heard some of the others didn't even sleep at all during the exam.
They were busy studying with some others.
So I must do that as well.
It's so good of your Aunt to let me stay here during the exam.
Anne, will you write me when you are in Charlottesville?
Of course, I'll write you the moment I get there.
I'll be waiting by the post box then.
It's a deal.
No problem.
Matthew wants to drive Anne to Charlottesville himself.
However, his heart started hurting again.
Although Matthew kept insisting that he was alright,
Marilla decided to allow Anne to take the train instead.
I have packed everything for you.
Anne, Matthew can't take you there. There's something wrong with the cows.
I'll drive you to the station, can you take a train yourself?
Yes... I know.
Anne, I'm sorry things turned out this way.
Matthew, don't worry about it. I'm just a little disappointed.
I'm leaving.
You must do your best.
It's been so long since I took a car ride with you.
Yes.
The last time was 4 years ago, when I first came to Green Gables.
I took you to Mrs Spencer that time, didn't I?
It seems more like a dream now.
I'm recalling a lot from the past today.
Oh yes, Matthew didn't look too good just now.
Really, he's just getting old.
And not being able to take you saddens him.
Really?
Even if I can't live up to Matthew's expectations of being first,
but I'll try my best. I'll be in the Top 10 list for sure.
Don't pressure yourself like that.
I've said this before.
Even if you don't make it this time, you can always try again.
There's always next year.
But I'm not worried about it at all.
Just try your best.
Marilla...
Anne.
I'm sorry to have to trouble you to have to come and fetch me.
Come on, this way.
I got a shock when I got your telegram.
But it's good that you could come.
The cows are sick again. That's why Matthew's not here with me.
He must be very worried.
Do you want to drop by Queens for a look?
Yes! That would be great!
Look, right over there.
You will be studying here in September.
Ms Barry, it's even grander than I thought.
I can send you here every day during your exams.
Ms Stacy will be doing that, so...
Really, then let me accompany you during the school-reopening ceremony.
Of course, but I don't even know if I will manage to get in.
You will make it!
Someone just said she was going to be in the Top 10 list.
Yes.
That would not be easy.
Oh yes, I heard you had a rival, it's a boy right?
You don't want to lose to him.
But I'm doing this most for Marilla and Matthew.
Especially Matthew.
Because Matthew believes in me.
Don't you think it's strange?
Not at all.
I'll never live up to Matthew's expectations.
But they will be very happy if I make it among the Top 10.
I want to see the look on their faces.
I envy them.
Ms Stacy really turned up in a horse carriage on Tuesday morning
to pick all the students up.
Good morning.
Morning.
Good morning.
Feel my hand.
It's so icy, Ruby.
Anne, you don't look too well, surely you're not ill.
Me? I don't think so.
Even if you make it,
I don't think you can stand the heavy workload in the future.
Josie, everyone's nervous today.
Ok everyone. Take a deep breath.
1, 2, 3.
Again.
8 times 3 equals 24.
Moody Spurgeon. 8 times 8 is 64.
Good morning.
What are you doing?
I think he's memorising his multiplication table.
Shut up, be quiet.
I don't feel right if I don't get this.
It seems that I've forgotten everything I've learnt.
But once I recite my table, I feel much better.
How can that be?
It's true.
Your chaos has ruined all that though.
2 times 2 is 4, 2 times 3 is six.
Good morning.
Looks like everyone's here.
Moody, are you ok?
No, I am alright.
You will all make it. Don't worry.
Let's just all do some warm ups before the exam.
English exam proceeding.
You cannot look around or talk to one another during the exam.
I will be handing out the paper now.
You will be taking your English exam now followed by lunchtime,
and the History paper is in the afternoon.
Moody, why are you out so quickly?
Anne, what am I going to do?
I can't do this. My history was a total mess.
I think it was difficult too. I mixed up some dates.
Really?
Anne, I want to go home tomorrow.
I feel as if I was born to disappoint my parents.
I will never make it as a pastor.
You can't think like that? You have to complete the exam.
You will be letting Ms Stacy down if you give up.
What happened to Ruby?
I don't think she's going to make it. She made a huge mistake.
I told her the answer and she started crying.
What on earth is going on?
I... I...
Ruby, it's common to make mistakes.
Don't brood over it. Just try harder tomorrow.
Let's go get Gilbert and Jane.
Ms Stacy is treating us to ice-cream.
Good, everyone is relaxed now.
Everyone said that it would be so good if you were there too.
It's Tuesday night.
I'm here in Ms Barry's room, writing to you,
It's the geometry exam tomorrow.
Thinking about it, I recall my promise to Ms Stacy,
trying not to open those books. It takes a lot of determination.
If only words could help me, I would hypnotize myself.
Diana, what if I don't make it?
But just as Mrs Lynde said,
it's no big deal if I pass or fail, the sun will still shine.
Although she was stating the truth,
but if I fail, I hope that the sun will share the sorrow with me.
Really, Anne.
Is she taking her geometry now?
Relax.
You were brimming with confidence for all the other subjects.
It's only your geometry, right?
Charlie, how did you do?
I think it was alright. Question 4 wasn't easy though.
It's actually very easy if you knew the method.
It's Triangle DBA
plus Triangle EAC. When you do that,
it becomes a triangle!
Anne's letter was 3 pages long.
So many?
She was just trying to say that it was difficult not to revise.
I'll read it to you.
Diana, when I first got the exam paper,
I froze, my mind was all confused.
Although it was only for a second, the feeling was horrible.
I felt the same way I did 4 years ago,
when I asked Marilla if I could stay at Green Gables.
But my mind cleared up.
My heart returned to normal,
I almost forgot to mention that I didn't touch a pen.
Oh dear,
The exam would be ending on Thursday.
The students would be saying Goodbye to Ms Stacy.
They would be thanking her from the bottom of their hearts.
On Friday, Anne said goodbye to Josephine Barry
and took the train back to Avonlea.
Matthew was waiting at the Avonlea station for her.
Diana was waiting at Green Gables.
Welcome home, Anne.
Diana, I'm home.
You don't look too bad.
Since you left Charlottesville, I've been waiting for this moment.
Welcome home, Anne.
Marilla, I'm home.
It feels so good to be home.
There's no place in the world better than Green Gables.
Anne, how do you think you did?
I think I was alright in everything. Except of course for geometry.
I don't know if I passed geometry.
It makes me so worried.
Don't worry.
How did the rest fare?
The girls claim that they failed but I think they didn't.
Josie said it was very easy.
But we will have to wait for the results to know for sure.
2 weeks.
Anne, how did Gilbert Blythe do?
Gilbert should have done well. He looked very confident.
You will definitely make it.
However if I don't do well enough, I'd rather I failed.
Really girl, you think too much of yourself.
No, I don't, right Matthew?
Yes.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
We should have a good dinner and you should go to bed early.
Diana.
You must have a lot to tell Anne, stay for dinner.
Stay, Diana.
Alright.
To Anne, there was just waiting left to do.
Very soon, the 2 weeks was up.
3 weeks has passed and still no results.
Next on Anne of Green Gables The Results
Please enjoy.
