Franz's Eyes
While Dad and Franz were away, wild beasts that looked like wolves attacked us.
Mom, who usually isn't very courageous,
fought desperately against them to save Jack and me, and managed to scare them away.
She was amazing!
But when Dad came home, Mom had already become her usual fearful self,
and had fainted.
Anna. Anna! Snap out of it.
Dear? Is that really you, Dear?
Yes, it's me. Franz is here, too.
Franz!
Flone, Jack! Are you all safe and sound?
- Yes, everything is all right now, Mom. - You can rest easy, Anna. We're all fine.
You're strange, Mom. You killed it all by yourself, and then you fainted.
It was the first time in my life that I fired a rifle.
When I pressed the trigger, and heard that loud noise,
the recoil was so strong, that I had the impression I'd hit myself.
I don't know what happened after that.
You really are quite extraordinary. You killed that beast with one shot.
I just wanted to do something to protect Jack and Flone from those beasts.
- I couldn't think of anything else. - Mom...
- Mom is very strong, right? - Yes.
Nothing is stronger than a mother when it really matters.
But I hope it's the last time I am this scared. Please do something to prevent that.
Yes. Anna, you should get some rest.
Let your Mom rest a little.
Flone, I'm going clear up outside. Can you prepare lunch for us?
Sure!
I was shaking like a leaf while mother fought against those beasts.
But now that Dad and Franz had come back, I went back to being a happy tomboy.
- Flone! - Come and take it!
Not fair!
Now that Dad and Franz had come back safe,
Mom was relieved and could finally relax.
It was really good, Flone. Thank you.
Now that we have finished eating,
I want to tell you about everything Franz and I have seen on our expedition.
We've been waiting for this! Hurry, tell us!
Have you found any other survivors from the ship?
What about Emily?
Well, we haven't seen anyone who has survived the shipwreck.
Even worse,
we found out that this is an island completely surrounded by the sea.
That means we have confirmed that we're on an uninhabited island.
Wah! How wonderful!
Wonderful?! What's so wonderful about that?!
But it's true, isn't it? If this island really is uninhabited, it belongs to us now.
Everything here is ours and no one can complain about it, no matter what we do!
But this also means that there's nobody who will help us.
And no one will think to come and take us off this island!
We will have no friends, no neighbors,
no one to talk to, except our family.
That's not important. We have Dad and he can do anything!
Saying that I can do anything makes me embarrassed.
But fortunately, I don't think we'll go without food on this island.
First of all, there are palm trees in abundance.
And since there are sugar canes, we could manufacture sugar.
Wah! Sugar canes?!
That's the most important information.
Flone, take Jack with you and go to the beach to play.
But I want to to hear more about your expedition.
I have nothing more to say.
Now I must talk about something with your mother.
- With Franz, too? - Yes, with Franz, too.
- Flone, go on. - Okay.
Ah, Mercre! Come down!
So Franz is now regarded as an adult?
Oh, right! I'll do the dishes.
Come down!
If you found no lifeboats, where do you think the people who left in them could be?
Do you think they could have landed on another island?
No, there aren't any other islands. There is nothing but the sea all around us.
- Then all those people... - Yes. We must assume that they weren't saved.
Are we the only ones who have survived?
In the end, we won't be saved.
And maybe it's better that way.
Franz!
But that how it is, right?
It's impossible for us to survive in such an isolated place.
- Franz, you mustn't give up! - That's right.
Since God has worked a miracle to save us,
we must strive to continue living. If we're still alive...
Even if we survive, we will never see anyone else on this island!
Of course we won't stay here forever.
I'm sure your father will find a way to get off of this island.
No, that's a lie! They can't all be dead!
They'll be on another island!
- What is it, Franz? - It's just as it seems.
You seem discouraged.
- Yes, I'm sick of everything. - Why?
We're the only ones there on this island! Is that all right with you?
It's all right. Because the whole family is together.
Kids are so lucky. They're so naive.
An adult can't afford that luxury.
It's very hot here.
We'll all turn into mummies eventually.
Dad, Mom, and me. And then Flone and Jack...
will soon become large and small mummies.
- What is a mummy? - A stuffed human being.
Franz, if you don't want to turn into a mummy, you should rest in the shade.
Franz, if you rest in the shade, you'll definitely feel much better.
- Ah, there it is. - You want to build a house here?
- Yes, on top of this tree. - What? On top of the tree?
That's the only way to protect ourselves from wild animals.
When we clear these branches, we'll have enough space to build a house.
But living in such a high place scares me.
It will be all right. I'll make a rope ladder for you.
Yes, but I didn't expect to live in a tree like a bird.
Franz is probably right. I don't think we will be able to survive this.
What are you saying, Anna?
I must tell you honestly,
I have a hunch that we won't ever return to the civilized world.
There's certainly no guarantee that someone will come to our rescue.
Now that we have no boat,
how will we be able to get off this island?
We had the raft, but we had to use that to build the house.
Dad!
- Dad, something terrible has happened! - What happened, Flone?
Come quickly! Franz is...! An strange insect stung him in the eyes!
What? He was stung in the eye?
I can't see! It hurts! - Franz!
- Franz, get a grip! Does it hurt? - It hurts!
I can't see anything.
You can't see? Flone, what kind of insect was it?
That insect!
Franz cut that branch, and touched it accidentally.
Then the insect emitted a yellow smoke into his eyes.
This is bad.
It could be a poisonous insect. Everyone must stay away from it!
- How is it, Franz? Does that ease the pain? - Yes, but I still can't see anything.
I see. Don't worry, you'll get your sight back soon.
- Here, Dear. - Anna, please wash his eyes.
Yes.
- You have more of that medicine? - Yes.
We will use all of it. We must cure him at all costs.
Good, now go and throw this water away.
- Dad? - What is it, Franz?
I won't be able to see again, will I? - Yes, you will.
Please don't lies to me. I know I won't be able to.
I am the doctor who diagnosed you, and my opinion is what counts.
Just how bad is the situation?
No doctor in the world has discovered a treatment
to cure eyes damaged by insect venom.
So Franz will be blind forever?
If the poison has penetrated the eye, that may be so.
Does Franz know that?
We still don't know how much of the substance that got into his eyes.
- Flone told me it only emitted a little. - I hope so.
But is there a chance that he will lose his sight anyway?
Yes. Anyway, we can only do our best.
He was already so depressed because of Emily,
and now this misfortune has fallen upon him...
Mom, it's not that I don't want to go to Australia,
but the fact is that I want to become a musician!
Oh? A musician?!
Yes, I want to be a composer and a conductor! An orchestra conductor!
So you don't want to be following in your father's footsteps and become a doctor?
It's impossible for me to become a doctor.
I'm too timid.
It's impossible for me to use a scalpel on a patient.
Neither I nor your father will force you to be something you don't want to be.
Well, maybe Jack follow in the footsteps of your father.
Flone would be a good doctor. She's just like a boy.
Yes, that's true.
I think that Vienna is the ideal place to study music.
I could study it here in Bern as well, but in Australia...?
True, I don't think there are any good conservatories in Australia.
Right? That's why I'm so doubtful.
Had I known, I would have forced him to stay in Bern.
- Anna, you must sleep now. - But I...
There's no point in both of us staying awake.
- We'll take turns. - Okay.
Dad?
You can't sleep? I have to wash your eyes frequently, so I guess it's impossible.
But you have to rest now. I'll give you something to make you sleep.
Dad... When was the last time you saw Emily?
She was on the last lifeboat and was calling your name.
She was a good girl.
Now, you must rest your eyes.
I don't care. Even if they heal, I can never see Emily again!
- Franz, what are you saying?! - Shh, I gave him a tranquilizer.
- Flone. - Shh! He's sleeping now.
- How long have you been awake? - I got up to replace Dad.
- This is bad. - It's all right, Dad.
I've continued to clean his eyes.
I see. Thank you. Then a damp cloth will be sufficient.
The wolves did not come back last night, but we must hurry to finish the house.
I'm sorry I can not help you.
No, Franz is most important. Change the cloth every now and then.
He shouldn't wake up until this afternoon.
- Mom... - I'm here, Franz.
You're finally awake. Franz, now I'll take off the cloth.
Open your eyes slowly.
- Well? Can you see my face? - No.
You can't see anything?!
- Are my eyes open, Mom? - Yes, they're open.
Then I'm really blind. I knew that you wouldn't be able to cure me!
I will never see again!
- Franz! - Franz!
Franz, try to calm down.
You can't be healed overnight! You have to take your time to heal.
Enough! I'm tired. I want to be alone!
Franz's eyes didn't improve that day, nor the day after that,
or the following days.
I thought he would be blinded forever.
Even Mom and Dad had almost resigned themselves to it.
Then, on the tenth day...
I can see. I can see! - Huh?
- Franz! - Franz!
Franz!
I can see all of you! That's Dad! That's Mom!
That's Flone and that's Jack! I can really see!
- Is that so! - Franz!
Franz, can you really see?
Yes, I can see everything!
Hooray!
Hooray! Hooray! I can see!
I've come back to life! I'm alive again!
Hooray!
Yahoo!
Mom!
Ever since we came to this island,
I haven't spent a single day with the whole family.
I feel so lonely.
Next time: I Hear the Song of the Seashells
Look forward to it!
