Doc Baker did the right thing ! Thinking of her than himself ! I hadn’t seen this clip before ! These age gap relationships are still very common today ! With the woman usually decades younger ! The older men replacing their wives with new younger ones ! Not many Doc Bakers in this time, VERY RARE !
It is sad, one of the saddest things I've ever seen, but...he was right, and she knew it. It wouldn't matter for a few years, but when she was his age, it would have mattered terribly. How do I know? I know because I am a 47-year-old woman who may have found men 20-25 years my senior delightful when I was in my early 20s, but who is very glad not to be married to one now. Some people can make this work, but not most.
this doctor is really fool i think they should have married, they would have had a great time and loved so much. i agree to the other poster, now the doctor made the woman so unhappy, very bad ending indeed.
Doc Baker is so selfless in this episode! Thinking of her and her future and not himself. Rare!
I wish doc would have married kate... she made him so happy.
Doc Baker was very wise. Bless his heart!

I'm pretty sure Baker isn't a pervert.

She would have ended up as a widow with a bunch of kids. Lonely life.
They should've gotten married!
@fisteberg Exactly! I honestly don't know why Dr. Baker turned her down. I thought age didn't matter in this time either. :( It is very sad.
@knowthyself123 Yes. And in the bible, Boaz is and old man,but he married the young ,beautiful Ruth
