1) Abortion in an orphanage
2) Candice, because of loneliness, is carrying her boyfriend behind her back to engage in mistress

The Cider House Rules quotes

  • Fuzzy: Is your father dead?

    Fuzzy: What's a nanny do?

    Dr. Wilbur Larch: She looks after other people's children.

    Fuzzy: Did she grow up around here?

    Dr. Wilbur Larch: No. She was an immigrant.

    Fuzzy: What's an immigrant?

    Dr. Wilbur Larch: Someone not from Maine.
