[00:27.52]Sure.
[00:34.12]Hello. My name is Ellen Stewart,
[00:37.80]and I'm running for the open seat on the school board.
[00:41.74]My slogan is "I care."
[00:46.06]What does the word care mean? 所谓关心是指什么?
[00:48.80]... I care about people, not things.
[00:53.19]Vote for me, Ellen Stewart.
[00:56.79]I care.
[01:02.35]I like it,
[01:03.75]but now what?
[01:04.50]How can we possibly get it on so Riverdale
[01:06.93]will see it and hear it?
[01:10.83]Leave it to me.
[01:16.49]... I mean that when I say "I care",
[01:19.73]I care about people, not things.
[01:24.17]Vote for me, Ellen Stewart.
[01:27.76]I care.
[01:30.95]What happened?
[01:32.23]Mom is now on television
[01:34.59]in every appliance store in Riverdale,
[01:37.02]except Hamlin's.
[01:38.05]He's a Boswell voter.
[01:39.62]That's a brilliant idea, Richard!
[01:41.79]You inherited your father's brains.
[01:45.18]We got our brains from you, Dad.
[01:47.22]And guess what?
[01:48.46]I called channel five.
[01:49.95]Their TV news is going to cover it.
[01:52.22]"Housewife campaigns in appliance stores."
[01:55.29]And I'll bet
[01:55.99]some magazine will pick up the story, too.
[01:58.48]Mom, you're going to win!
[01:59.62]I know it!
[02:00.62]Hold it, Robbie!
[02:01.90]Just cool down.
[02:03.50]I know we're getting some attention now,
[02:05.06]but in the end the voters will have to decide.
[02:10.90]You're gonna win.
[02:12.19]Trust me!
[02:16.61]In the hotly contested race
[02:18.01]for the one seat on the Riverdale School Board,
[02:20.32]Mrs. Ellen Stewart has taken an early lead.
[02:23.73]She's winning!
[02:28.83][02:25.43]Mom, you're winning!
[02:29.18]Now returning to other local news ...
[02:30.12]Riverdale High School
[02:30.99]beat its rival Horace Mann in baseball today ...
[02:31.54]It's too soon to know for certain.
[02:34.66]You're ahead.
[02:35.07]That's better than being behind.
[02:45.07]More sports after this.
[02:45.58]It's not over yet.
[02:45.88]Let's just all calm down,
[02:53.78]and wait for the final results.
[02:54.07]Ellen, why don't you go out to the backyard
[02:54.27]and get some fresh air?
[02:54.64]Thank you, Grandpa.
[02:57.10]I need some.
[03:07.63]What happened?
[03:13.75]You came very close, Ellen.
[03:15.98]You lost by only a hundred and twenty-one votes.
[03:27.26]I lost.
[03:29.56]You tried, Mom.
[03:30.74]You lost by a very small number of votes.
[03:34.41]Only one hundred and twenty-one votes!
[03:38.33]I'm sorry, Mom.
[03:40.68]There just wasn't enough time.
[03:43.81]Look,
[03:44.49]you've made a very strong impression
[03:46.08]on our community.
[03:48.24]You'll have another chance next election.
[03:59.84]Hello.
[04:01.71]Oh, yes, yes, Mr. Maxwell.
[04:14.44]Hello, Mr. Maxwell.
[04:16.16]How are you?
[04:18.22]I just called to tell you
[04:20.64]that you are very impressive.
[04:20.96]You lost the election,
[04:22.56]but you won the attention of the residents of Riverdale,
[04:25.18]of Boswell, and of me.
[04:28.22]Well, thank you, Mr. Maxwell.
[04:30.42]I appreciate your kind words.
[04:32.64]I needed that.
[04:34.25]I hear Boswell
[04:35.27]wants to appoint you to a special arts committee.
[04:38.42]I'm sending over a reporter
[04:39.59]in the morning to interview you.
[04:42.38]You are?
[04:44.35]I'm gonna do an article
[04:45.38]on "Ellen Stewart--she cares."
[04:49.09]Maybe we'll all care now.
[04:51.40]Good-bye.
[04:54.98]Thank you--
[04:56.86]and good-bye.
[05:04.81]What was that about?
[05:07.14]You were right, Philip.
[05:09.98]I did make a difference in town.
[05:12.28]And in this family.
