The Story of Seabiscuit

The Story of Seabiscuit

Ted Knowles, Jockey: Margaret.
Margaret O'Hara: Was ever a woman so humiliated, to have her man stolen by a horse?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: You don't really mean that it's over?
Margaret O'Hara: 'Tis not tricks that I'm up to, Ted. I came to say goodbye and to wish the two of you, you and Seabiscuit, the best of luck.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: But, I thought you'd be able to forgive me when you saw how it was.
Margaret O'Hara: Forgive you for allowing Uncle Shawn's evil, old tongue to sway you?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I'm not hiding behind your uncle.
Margaret O'Hara: The old conniver. Oh, aren't you now? I suppose he had nothing to do with it.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I would have done it anyway. Because I love you, I thought it was the right thing for me to quit riding. But it wasn't right because it made me quit a loser. And this much I do know about the O'Haras, you wouldn't want a man that was a loser. So, I'll quit a winner or not at all.
Margaret O'Hara: Is that all you have to say, Ted?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: That's all Margaret. Except, I love you.

The Story of Seabiscuit

Ted Knowles, Jockey: Margaret's in Los Angeles, isn't she?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Yes, she's a full-fledged nurse now.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: You know, I can't get her out of my mind.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Maybe you don't want to. Are you in love with her, Ted?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: You're darn tooting.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: I'm tooting she's in love with you, too.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: So, that ought to make it a sure thing, but it doesn't.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: You'll have to bear with her, Ted. She's running away from Danny's memory.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: But she's not running away from it, Shawn. It's right with her all the time. I wonder if she saw me ride a winner if maybe that would fix things. What do you think?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: That's an idea. I'll have her at the track for the San Carlos.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Oh, that'll be great.

The Story of Seabiscuit

Ted Knowles, Jockey: Say, I think your niece is swell.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Well, you can't start an argument with me that way, me boy.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I just wanted to know if it'd be okay by you if I dated her.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: And if it shouldn't be okay by me, I'm thinking you'd start an argument.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Well, I thought maybe you had it in for jocks, too. Darned if I don't think I'd stand a better chance with her if I were a stable boy. She's a mystery, that Margaret is. You know, Mr. O'Hara, maybe you could put in a good word for me.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Well, now, being the kind of man you are, Ted, I've an idea you can solve that mystery without my help. However, I might be willing to put in a word here and there if you do me a bit of a favor in return.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Anything you say.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: I'll not say much. Just buy that colt there, Seabiscuit.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Me, buy that little squirt? What for?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: I like him.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: But he hasn't got a chance. George doesn't think so either, or he wouldn't be shipping him.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: I think you're both mistaken.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Well, if you're so sure, why don't you buy him yourself?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: No, no. So long as I train for other people, I'll never race one of me own. I might be tempted to give him special consideration.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I feel the same way myself.
