LAWSON: Oh my Goodness, Miss Shirley.ĪLICE LAWSON: You won the contest, you goose! And I knew you'd go into it all behind our backs. Oh, ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you Avonlea's famous authoress.
You deserve the best.ĪNTHONY PYE: Congratulations, Miss Shirley! I really liked the bit about the cake!ĪLICE LAWSON: Anne Shirley, we've been trying to track you down everywhere. BOULTER: That girl always did give herself airs.
You almost look pretty in it.ĪNNE: Ah, don't say things you don't mean, Josie. JOSIE PYE: And I think that blue you're wearing is so dramatic for a young authoress. BOULTER: Well, there's nothing fake about the business Lawson's General Store intends to do from all this. JOSIE PYE: You were always such a terrible fake at modesty, even during public school. But what do you mean? Congratulations for what? BOULTER: You have such a way of putting Avonlea on the map.ĪNNE: Thank you. BOULTER: But that's what comes of Marilla Cuthbert adopting an orphan from Goodness-knows-where or what kind of parents. SCENE: Back outside the Avonlea post office It would almost be as bad as Jake Griffith's Chataghua Show. I'd never dream of competing for anything so disgraceful. The address wasn't in your handwriting, though.ĪNNE: I should hope not. My suspicion that someone was trying for that prize that they were offering for the best story introducing the new baking powder. SLOANE: It was addressed to the Rollings Reliable Baking Powder Company in Montreal. Mable Sloane here says that she found another one of them big manilla envelopes come through here a couple of weeks ago, that's all. HARRISON: Been writing anymore stories lately, Miss Shirley. Nobody born and bred in Avonlea would do it. BOULTER: Well, I'm sorry to hear she's taken to writing novels at all. I am sure I remember reading it in a newspaper years ago. JOSIE PYE: I believe Anne Shirley just copied that story.
