candy candy Episode 1

Two abandoned girls, Candy White and Annie, grow up as the best of friends at Pony's Home - an old church and orphanage run by Miss Pony and Sister Mary. They sabotage visits from possible future parents in order to be unadopted. Meanwhile Candy and another orphan, Tom, often get into verbal and physical fights. While the dark-haired Annie is a docile girl, the blond-haired Candy is an incorrigible tomboy who climbs trees, loves mischief and has an excellent lasso throwing skill. When the wealthy farmer Steve adopts Tom, Candy also realizes gradually that she will miss Tom. On his farewell day, Miss Pony and Sister Mary reveal that it was young Tom who had first noticed Annie and Candy being left by side outside of the orphanage all those years ago.
