1
00:02:01,710 --> 00:02:03,130
I will have her.

2
00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:07,190
Don't you ever give up, Rutum.

3
00:02:07,930 --> 00:02:09,449
You know she hates you.

4
00:02:15,950 --> 00:02:16,510
My

5
00:02:16,510 --> 00:02:24,390
father

6
00:02:24,390 --> 00:02:25,610
met it. Is he still in the library?

7
00:02:25,830 --> 00:02:26,830
No, Miss Serena.

8
00:02:27,010 --> 00:02:30,330
Sir Giles left for London shortly after
you went for your ride.

9
00:02:35,559 --> 00:02:36,860
Does the Jarl stay when he'll be back?

10
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,080
No, miss.

11
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:40,880
He said he'd be staying with your
cousin, Master Nicholas.

12
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:56,720
Please let him win.

13
00:02:57,260 --> 00:02:59,620
Please. He doesn't want to let the Jarl
win.

14
00:03:12,490 --> 00:03:14,690
My trick, I think, and my game.

15
00:03:16,150 --> 00:03:18,250
The cards love you tonight, Squire.

16
00:03:18,950 --> 00:03:19,950
Another game?

17
00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:22,630
Uncle, you have won back all you have
lost and more.

18
00:03:23,150 --> 00:03:24,150
Now is the time to quit.

19
00:03:24,610 --> 00:03:26,950
On the contrary, dear boy, now is the
time to ride my luck.

20
00:03:27,270 --> 00:03:30,230
With respect, sir, that has never failed
to bring you disaster.

21
00:03:30,570 --> 00:03:32,390
Oh, just one more game, sir, just one
more game.

22
00:03:33,050 --> 00:03:35,970
Uncle, if you will not think of
yourself, think of your daughter,

23
00:03:45,580 --> 00:03:51,020
I know that discretion is death to a
gamester, but prudence has been urged

24
00:03:51,020 --> 00:03:52,020
me.

25
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:55,820
And I must confess, I do see the sense
of it.

26
00:03:57,060 --> 00:03:58,120
I will play no more.

27
00:03:58,460 --> 00:04:02,400
You've paid your dues to Lady Luck in
the past, Sir Giles. We will excuse you.

28
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:05,800
Your servant.

29
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,400
Lovely. Going so soon?

30
00:04:13,290 --> 00:04:16,870
I thought you might like to take revenge
on me for lightening your pockets the

31
00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:17,870
last time we met.

32
00:04:19,870 --> 00:04:23,010
Jules, I swear he has an impatient
mistress waiting for him.

33
00:04:29,790 --> 00:04:33,730
I'm at your disposal, my lord Rutum.

34
00:04:38,490 --> 00:04:40,510
Uncle, you know his luck has always
topped your...

35
00:04:41,930 --> 00:04:43,250
Tonight he'll learn his lesson.

36
00:04:46,650 --> 00:04:47,890
Do I suit you?

37
00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:49,810
As you please.

38
00:04:51,670 --> 00:04:52,930
Yes, would you?

39
00:04:53,150 --> 00:04:54,150
Certainly.

40
00:04:54,650 --> 00:04:57,410
Quick and simple, high score wins, no
limit on stakes.

41
00:04:58,690 --> 00:04:59,690
Agreed.

42
00:06:00,730 --> 00:06:02,370
Good throw, Uncle. This could turn the
game.

43
00:06:25,810 --> 00:06:26,950
It's just some hot chocolate.

44
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,180
Don't drink it, please, Miss Serena.
You've had nothing all day.

45
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:36,780
All will be well.

46
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:38,440
I'm sure.

47
00:06:53,460 --> 00:06:54,460
A child here.

48
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,000
Well, there's always your house down
there, is there not?

49
00:07:04,740 --> 00:07:07,000
Rather fine house, I've always thought.
Very pretty.

50
00:07:08,260 --> 00:07:15,100
But, of course, if you don't care to...
Well... We'll all

51
00:07:15,100 --> 00:07:16,100
perfectly understand.

52
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,480
He's baiting him.

53
00:07:20,020 --> 00:07:22,720
I'd rather face a drawn sword than a
rootin' charm.

54
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,880
Not leaving, Stanley, my dear fellow.

55
00:08:34,299 --> 00:08:37,860
There is nothing left to wager.

56
00:08:40,100 --> 00:08:43,400
You've taken everything I possess.

57
00:08:44,660 --> 00:08:46,740
Well, not quite everything.

58
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:55,220
That pretty daughter of yours, she's a
touch high and mighty with me, I have to

59
00:08:55,220 --> 00:08:57,680
say, but a girl of great spirit.

60
00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:04,880
They tell me that she inherits 80 ,000
guineas from a trust on her marriage.

61
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,240
I'll tell you what.

62
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:10,780
Let me be fair with you.

63
00:09:11,700 --> 00:09:17,380
I'll wager everything that you've lost
so far against your daughter's hand in

64
00:09:17,380 --> 00:09:18,380
marriage.

65
00:09:26,740 --> 00:09:27,920
Uncle, he's dating you.

66
00:09:31,089 --> 00:09:34,030
Well, sir, yes or no?

67
00:09:43,530 --> 00:09:45,770
For God's sake, man, not your own
daughter!

68
00:09:46,170 --> 00:09:48,430
And root them of all people! What would
you have me do?

69
00:09:48,810 --> 00:09:53,930
Go back and tell Serena that I gambled
away the roof over her head? Better that

70
00:09:53,930 --> 00:09:58,130
than... By all the laws of chance, I
have to win!

71
00:09:58,850 --> 00:09:59,910
Just once!

72
00:10:00,940 --> 00:10:02,060
Against this rotum.

73
00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:04,080
It's my only opportunity.

74
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:06,180
Now is the time. Now!

75
00:10:07,460 --> 00:10:09,140
Oh, Nicholas.

76
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,540
Can't you see?

77
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,980
My daughter's hand and her inheritance.

78
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,920
Against everything I have.

79
00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:27,820
So, Lady Luck has her little ways.

80
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,680
I hope it will be convenient if I call
on you tomorrow.

81
00:11:34,700 --> 00:11:37,920
Do ask the adorable Serena to expect me.

82
00:11:48,580 --> 00:11:49,580
Poor devil.

83
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,240
Never did know when to stop.

84
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,100
The bet should never have been allowed.

85
00:12:00,010 --> 00:12:01,070
My lord, root him.

86
00:12:11,050 --> 00:12:14,810
I will throw you for 100 ,000 guineas
against the house and the girl.

87
00:12:22,390 --> 00:12:23,390
Done.

88
00:12:24,350 --> 00:12:25,830
Tonight I'm unbeatable.

89
00:12:26,230 --> 00:12:28,150
Even by you, my dear Vulcan.

90
00:14:06,290 --> 00:14:07,870
Serena, your father is gone.

91
00:14:09,690 --> 00:14:11,370
Now it is you we have to worry about.

92
00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:13,010
I don't care about myself.

93
00:14:13,370 --> 00:14:14,370
You must.

94
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,820
We've escaped Lord Rutham, but Lord
Vulcan is worse.

95
00:14:18,060 --> 00:14:20,020
No one could be worse than that
despicable man.

96
00:14:20,340 --> 00:14:22,220
There is something inhuman about Vulcan.

97
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,740
He never loses at anything. He never
shows any emotion.

98
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,360
And he is heartless to the women who
love him.

99
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:31,340
And there have been many.

100
00:14:32,940 --> 00:14:34,760
Rutham knew my father's weakness.

101
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,340
Forget about Rutham.

102
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,300
Serena, listen to me.

103
00:14:42,380 --> 00:14:43,520
There is one way.

104
00:14:44,430 --> 00:14:46,070
In which you can foil Lord Vulcan.

105
00:14:47,510 --> 00:14:48,510
How?

106
00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:50,830
You can marry me.

107
00:14:51,370 --> 00:14:52,830
Now, by special license.

108
00:14:53,530 --> 00:14:56,490
And whatever Vulcan does, he can never
marry you.

109
00:14:57,630 --> 00:14:59,330
Nicholas, you are a kind person.

110
00:15:00,290 --> 00:15:04,470
But I know your head over heels over
Lord Norton's young widow, Isabel

111
00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:07,050
Gillingham. I couldn't let you make that
sacrifice.

112
00:15:09,410 --> 00:15:11,070
You could never make each other happy.

113
00:15:12,010 --> 00:15:13,110
You have no choice.

114
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:14,720
I have a choice.

115
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,440
The Stableys have always paid their
debts. They have never run away, and I

116
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,300
not be the first to do so, even if it
means marriage to the devil himself.

117
00:15:25,460 --> 00:15:30,400
Justin, darling, you wouldn't really
consider marrying a girl you won in a

118
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:35,400
It's not as if you need the 80 ,000. My
dear Isabel, I confess I've given it

119
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:36,400
very little thought.

120
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,240
To be honest, until your brother, my
good Lord Gillingham here, brought the

121
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,199
matter up.

122
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,860
It had completely slipped my mind.
Slipped your mind?

123
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:46,500
Justin, I'll be damned.

124
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,440
Now, me, I'd have been out there next
day on the fastest horse I could clap a

125
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,079
saddle to.

126
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,220
I dare say. But you must have some
curiosity.

127
00:15:53,780 --> 00:15:54,780
About the house.

128
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,740
About the girl, damn it. After all, it's
ten days since you lifted them from

129
00:15:58,740 --> 00:15:59,740
Rutum.

130
00:16:00,380 --> 00:16:01,380
Tell you what.

131
00:16:01,940 --> 00:16:03,080
Why not go there now?

132
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:04,500
Now? All of us.

133
00:16:05,140 --> 00:16:06,960
Staveley Court's just north of London.

134
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:08,300
Splendid idea, Burleigh.

135
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,040
Let's make a race of it.

136
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:11,320
A thousand guineas?

137
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,080
It would be something to do. Oh, it's
ridiculous.

138
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,880
The girl will turn out to be a bald
freak with a wooden leg and the house a

139
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,760
ruin. Then you may stay here.

140
00:16:21,420 --> 00:16:23,280
No, no, I shall come.

141
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,200
That is, if I may ride with you.

142
00:16:47,850 --> 00:16:49,450
She's taking her time, I must say.

143
00:16:49,950 --> 00:16:51,870
Probably screwing on her wooden leg.

144
00:16:58,550 --> 00:17:00,830
Tell your mistress Lord Vulcan is here
to see her.

145
00:17:35,660 --> 00:17:36,660
The Lord Vulcan?

146
00:17:37,060 --> 00:17:38,600
At your service, Miss Tavely.

147
00:17:41,420 --> 00:17:46,100
May I present Lady Isabel Gillingham,
her brother, Lord Peter Gillingham, and

148
00:17:46,100 --> 00:17:47,100
Lord John Burley.

149
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:49,960
Oh, you must be hungry.

150
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,140
I'll send to the kitchen. Miss Tavely,
we will not hear of it.

151
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:55,700
A glass of wine, then.

152
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,700
Eudora, show our guests into the drawing
room. And Meadows, will you bring out

153
00:18:00,700 --> 00:18:01,700
some wine?

154
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,460
Miss Dave, perhaps you and I might talk.

155
00:18:15,740 --> 00:18:17,880
It hadn't occurred to me you would be so
young.

156
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:19,860
I was a late child.

157
00:18:20,780 --> 00:18:22,660
My mother died giving birth to me.

158
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,560
It puts a different complexion on
matters.

159
00:18:26,340 --> 00:18:27,340
Why?

160
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,660
To begin with, you can't possibly go on
living in this house.

161
00:18:34,190 --> 00:18:36,990
Since it now belongs to me, people would
assume you were mine.

162
00:18:37,230 --> 00:18:40,150
And I understand from Nicholas that the
dancer La Flamme already fills that

163
00:18:40,150 --> 00:18:41,150
position.

164
00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:46,570
I have ready the deeds of the estate, a
list of the tenants and those who

165
00:18:46,570 --> 00:18:47,930
receive pensions from my father.

166
00:18:48,230 --> 00:18:50,070
You would wish to continue to pay those?

167
00:18:50,490 --> 00:18:51,490
Of course.

168
00:18:53,330 --> 00:18:55,610
There's also a list of the livestock on
the home farm.

169
00:18:56,550 --> 00:19:00,350
Now, I'm afraid the accounts are not in
very good order. My estate manager will

170
00:19:00,350 --> 00:19:01,730
sort them out before the house is sold.

171
00:19:02,990 --> 00:19:03,990
Sold?

172
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,860
Naturally. Since you can't live here and
I have no use for it.

173
00:19:10,660 --> 00:19:11,680
I suppose so.

174
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,900
I hadn't considered that... Which leaves
you.

175
00:19:18,260 --> 00:19:20,100
What am I to do with you, Miss Stavely?

176
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:23,500
I'm in your hands, sir.

177
00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:25,620
I must honour my father's debt.

178
00:19:26,500 --> 00:19:29,800
And I cannot, for my reputation, cancel
it. Knowing something of your

179
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,340
reputation, I well understand that.

180
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,820
I believe the best answer would be for
you to stay for the time being with my

181
00:19:37,820 --> 00:19:39,680
mother at Mandrake, the family home.

182
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,700
May I bring my maid, Eudora, and my dog?

183
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,200
Naturally.

184
00:19:46,540 --> 00:19:50,920
I will send them on ahead to make your
arrival a little less strange for you.

185
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:53,800
Thank you.

186
00:19:54,540 --> 00:19:55,540
It's a long journey.

187
00:19:56,180 --> 00:19:58,740
Therefore, you yourself will travel in
my most comfortable coach.

188
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:02,320
You are most kind.

189
00:20:03,070 --> 00:20:06,130
I shall write to my mother telling her
to expect you. I will come on later.

190
00:20:08,450 --> 00:20:14,870
Until some solution suggests itself,
Miss Stavely, let us remain as we are,

191
00:20:14,870 --> 00:20:17,110
strangers brought together by a game of
chance.

192
00:20:23,990 --> 00:20:24,990
Ah.

193
00:20:27,030 --> 00:20:28,750
Try not to be afraid of my mother.

194
00:20:29,130 --> 00:20:30,130
Why?

195
00:20:54,120 --> 00:20:55,120
Miss Serena?

196
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,860
I know little of men.

197
00:20:59,620 --> 00:21:01,400
I'm aware of what they say about him.

198
00:21:02,780 --> 00:21:04,860
I've never been more baffled by a man in
my life.

199
00:21:15,340 --> 00:21:16,520
Let us remain as we are.

200
00:21:16,740 --> 00:21:19,140
Two strangers brought together by a
gaming chance.

201
00:22:51,530 --> 00:22:54,030
I am informed you are my son's fiancée.

202
00:22:57,190 --> 00:22:58,350
Who are you?

203
00:22:58,590 --> 00:23:00,990
And where did he make your acquaintance?

204
00:23:01,290 --> 00:23:05,810
Your son will doubtless explain
everything to you, ma 'am. The situation

205
00:23:05,810 --> 00:23:06,810
of my making.

206
00:23:10,170 --> 00:23:14,150
Take Miss Stavely to her room.

207
00:23:47,210 --> 00:23:48,510
This is your room. Thank you.

208
00:23:48,750 --> 00:23:51,330
If you need anything, you've only to
ask.

209
00:23:54,310 --> 00:23:56,090
Eudora! Oh, Miss Serena.

210
00:23:59,950 --> 00:24:00,950
Warrior.

211
00:24:05,570 --> 00:24:08,710
Her ladyship has put you in the oldest,
dampest part of the house.

212
00:24:09,230 --> 00:24:12,310
I had bricks in the bed, but the fire
wouldn't draw them out. Never mind.

213
00:24:12,310 --> 00:24:13,750
all together again, and that's all that
matters.

214
00:24:14,430 --> 00:24:15,430
Oh, Miss Serena.

215
00:24:16,330 --> 00:24:17,970
There is evil in this house.

216
00:24:18,490 --> 00:24:19,490
Eudora.

217
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:28,410
Serena, you know I've always fenced when
something's wrong.

218
00:24:28,730 --> 00:24:30,470
Eudora, aren't you being a bit over
-imaginative?

219
00:24:31,150 --> 00:24:35,370
I mean, certainly Her Ladyship does not
want me here. I tell you, there is evil.

220
00:24:35,790 --> 00:24:36,790
I feel it.

221
00:24:37,010 --> 00:24:39,190
His Lordship's valet told me the house
is haunted.

222
00:24:39,710 --> 00:24:40,750
And I will believe it.

223
00:24:41,810 --> 00:24:43,330
But it's haunted by the living.

224
00:24:44,060 --> 00:24:46,820
As well as the dog. No, you don't want
to stop it. You're giving me the

225
00:24:51,260 --> 00:24:53,040
That goes to the table.

226
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:55,640
Sleep, yes.

227
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,540
Most of the time he will stay with me.

228
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,600
That is what we're both used to.

229
00:25:00,140 --> 00:25:01,140
You may leave us.

230
00:25:04,700 --> 00:25:06,120
Take the animal with you.

231
00:25:15,370 --> 00:25:16,690
I trust you are comfortable here.

232
00:25:17,330 --> 00:25:18,330
Thank you, ma 'am.

233
00:25:18,490 --> 00:25:22,910
It appears from my son's letter you are
to have 80 ,000 guineas.

234
00:25:23,790 --> 00:25:24,910
On my marriage, ma 'am.

235
00:25:25,410 --> 00:25:26,570
It is in trust.

236
00:25:27,270 --> 00:25:30,050
It is not large fortune as fortunes go.

237
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:35,610
Still, you're sure it can only be
unlocked by marriage?

238
00:25:36,270 --> 00:25:37,270
Quite sure.

239
00:25:39,530 --> 00:25:42,550
You cannot marry my son, of course. That
is an absurdity.

240
00:25:43,490 --> 00:25:44,610
Besides, he will never marry.

241
00:25:45,770 --> 00:25:46,770
I mean, life.

242
00:25:47,870 --> 00:25:48,870
Eighty thousand.

243
00:25:49,430 --> 00:25:51,190
It is modest enough. Heaven knows.

244
00:25:52,410 --> 00:25:53,410
Guineas, you say?

245
00:25:53,530 --> 00:25:54,530
So I'm told.

246
00:25:55,710 --> 00:26:00,310
It would be a convenient sum for your
needs, were you to be able to unlock

247
00:26:00,310 --> 00:26:03,510
trust. I'm afraid that is quite out of
the question.

248
00:26:04,130 --> 00:26:06,010
These things are so, of course, still.

249
00:26:07,010 --> 00:26:09,530
Nothing is ever quite out of the
question.

250
00:26:10,970 --> 00:26:12,270
Something might be done.

251
00:26:12,890 --> 00:26:13,890
Ma 'am?

252
00:26:13,930 --> 00:26:14,990
I shall not keep you.

253
00:26:15,470 --> 00:26:17,910
You must be tired after your journey and
require rest.

254
00:26:18,130 --> 00:26:19,470
I shall have some food sent up.

255
00:26:19,730 --> 00:26:20,730
Thank you.

256
00:26:20,950 --> 00:26:23,650
Tomorrow, you will join us for dinner
downstairs.

257
00:26:25,090 --> 00:26:28,950
I have some guests for dinner, and a
number are coming in as usual afterwards

258
00:26:28,950 --> 00:26:30,670
for the entertainment.

259
00:26:32,170 --> 00:26:33,170
The entertainment?

260
00:26:34,910 --> 00:26:36,170
That's what I said, girl.

261
00:26:44,970 --> 00:26:46,110
Oh, you Doris, you.

262
00:26:46,510 --> 00:26:47,630
I thought she was back.

263
00:26:52,990 --> 00:26:54,570
Be careful of her, Miss Rena.

264
00:26:56,950 --> 00:26:58,090
She doesn't like me.

265
00:26:58,330 --> 00:26:59,770
And she lacks my money well enough.

266
00:27:00,710 --> 00:27:03,510
Don't worry, I may be afraid of her, but
she can't actually harm me.

267
00:27:05,010 --> 00:27:06,010
She is dangerous.

268
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,260
This quaint little girl you sent down
here.

269
00:28:39,740 --> 00:28:41,740
Why on earth did you wager for her?

270
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:45,940
To prevent her falling into the hands of
that man, Rutum. Oh, for shame, Justin.

271
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,900
You're becoming a sentimentalist. Not in
the least.

272
00:28:48,580 --> 00:28:51,160
I merely wanted the pleasure of
frustrating him.

273
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:56,080
And you really do not intend to marry
her? You know well that I do not.

274
00:28:56,380 --> 00:28:58,900
In the circumstances, I marry no one.

275
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,640
Love boy, but you frighten me.

276
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:02,080
I thought you were interested.

277
00:29:03,460 --> 00:29:04,460
One day, mother.

278
00:29:05,610 --> 00:29:07,270
There will have to be an heir for
Mandrake.

279
00:29:08,370 --> 00:29:09,730
One day, of course.

280
00:29:09,970 --> 00:29:10,970
But not yet.

281
00:29:11,410 --> 00:29:13,430
I couldn't bear her to be a grandmother
yet.

282
00:29:14,370 --> 00:29:17,030
Until she's married, I am responsible
for her.

283
00:29:17,230 --> 00:29:19,550
Now there, I can be of help to you.

284
00:29:19,750 --> 00:29:21,630
The girl is not entirely without
possibilities.

285
00:29:22,130 --> 00:29:26,770
I can put my dressmaker and hairdresser
to work on her. Then trail her through

286
00:29:26,770 --> 00:29:28,390
the shark pool? See who bites?

287
00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:30,110
Something of that sort.

288
00:29:30,710 --> 00:29:33,430
Miss Stavely has stronger metal than she
shows.

289
00:29:34,250 --> 00:29:36,890
And if you do succeed, what will you get
out of it?

290
00:29:38,670 --> 00:29:40,350
Rely upon me to work that.

291
00:30:45,799 --> 00:30:47,780
Our little heiress.

292
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:57,180
Ladies are forbidden in this room, but
you shall be the exception.

293
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,140
Come, child.

294
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:12,400
Lord John, may I present Miss Stabley?

295
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:13,900
Charming to meet you.

296
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:24,700
She used to have 80 ,000 when she
married. Lord Blount, may I present?

297
00:31:24,700 --> 00:31:25,339
isn't he?

298
00:31:25,340 --> 00:31:26,340
Sir William.

299
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,720
Quite a cat. Drove tight, they say. 80
,000. So young.

300
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:33,140
And such a pretty.

301
00:31:33,740 --> 00:31:36,720
Stay with her. I'll be there. One in a
wager.

302
00:31:36,940 --> 00:31:38,060
A cat for someone.

303
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,040
Rich too, they tell me. 80 ,000, eh?

304
00:31:41,340 --> 00:31:44,520
And now, you must meet your dinner
companion.

305
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,460
I am well acquainted with Lord Rutham.

306
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,040
Among other things.

307
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:55,580
He murdered my father.

308
00:32:16,910 --> 00:32:21,090
I was just remarking how quick the
journey is from London these days.

309
00:32:21,970 --> 00:32:26,510
I swear the Dover Road gets busier by
the month. That man, Lord Rutan, I can't

310
00:32:26,510 --> 00:32:31,430
bear to be near him. His eyes, they...
I've been put next to him at dinner.

311
00:32:33,070 --> 00:32:34,070
You will not be.

312
00:32:35,030 --> 00:32:36,030
May I retire?

313
00:32:36,070 --> 00:32:37,070
And run away?

314
00:32:38,910 --> 00:32:40,830
You're right. He should be the one to
run away.

315
00:32:43,730 --> 00:32:45,030
Justin, my dearest.

316
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:46,960
Miss Tavely.

317
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,200
Miss Gillingham.

318
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,700
How stunning you look, Miss Tavely.

319
00:32:58,160 --> 00:32:59,160
Oh, Jonathan.

320
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:01,280
Isabel.

321
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,900
I brought Nicholas for you.

322
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,020
I knew you'd be pleased.

323
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,640
Justin, you promised to show me how to
play faro.

324
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,320
Nick!

325
00:33:53,199 --> 00:33:56,000
Thank you.

326
00:34:14,489 --> 00:34:17,850
A little livelier than Stabley Court,
Miss Stabley. I must say, it has quite

327
00:34:17,850 --> 00:34:20,210
taken my breath away. I mean, all that
out there.

328
00:34:20,670 --> 00:34:21,710
Didn't Justin tell you?

329
00:34:22,150 --> 00:34:23,449
His mother's a gambler, too.

330
00:34:24,010 --> 00:34:27,690
Fanatical. When London became too hot
for her, she turned this place into the

331
00:34:27,690 --> 00:34:30,570
biggest gaming house in Europe. She
takes 2 .5 % of the stakes.

332
00:34:31,050 --> 00:34:32,070
It's illegal, of course.

333
00:34:32,330 --> 00:34:36,449
But if Bo Nash got away with it in Bath
half a century ago, why shouldn't she?

334
00:34:37,110 --> 00:34:40,510
Her trouble is, as fast as she collects
it, she gambles it away herself.

335
00:34:41,310 --> 00:34:43,989
I've seen her wager a thousand guineas
on the turn of a card.

336
00:34:47,350 --> 00:34:54,250
I guess

337
00:34:54,250 --> 00:34:55,690
I haven't seen you look like a lot of
the cast.

338
00:34:56,370 --> 00:34:59,690
If you want her, go out and get her. She
has eyes for no one but that confounded

339
00:34:59,690 --> 00:35:02,110
Vulcan. You've got to let a girl know
you're there.

340
00:35:02,510 --> 00:35:03,810
She probably hasn't even seen you.

341
00:35:04,010 --> 00:35:05,710
What the deuce do you mean, hasn't seen
me?

342
00:35:06,010 --> 00:35:07,110
I'm around her the whole time.

343
00:35:07,430 --> 00:35:09,370
You don't understand that. You
understand nothing.

344
00:35:23,180 --> 00:35:25,120
The scrap of a girl is going to defy me.

345
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,260
Miss Stavely?

346
00:35:33,580 --> 00:35:35,240
I would appreciate a word.

347
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,380
What is between you and Justin?

348
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,240
There is nothing between me and Justin.

349
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,700
I do not wish to wed him, and he
certainly does not wish to wed me.

350
00:35:55,240 --> 00:35:58,220
I hardly know what I'm doing here. I've
never met people like this before, and I

351
00:35:58,220 --> 00:35:59,680
would not care if I were never to meet
them again.

352
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,600
And her ladyship holds me up like a
slave to the hopeful bidder.

353
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,380
That, as best as I can explain it, is my
situation.

354
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,500
Oh, Miss Daveley, would I like you for
that.

355
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,920
I should hate you, but it seems we must
be friends.

356
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:17,280
Serena?

357
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,540
Friends, Isabel.

358
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,000
Do you love him very much?

359
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:27,520
More than life.

360
00:36:28,940 --> 00:36:30,440
But he'll have none of me.

361
00:36:31,140 --> 00:36:33,000
And that is part of his deadly
attraction.

362
00:36:33,780 --> 00:36:35,880
I know it is absurd, but I cannot help
it.

363
00:36:36,220 --> 00:36:39,220
The colder he is to me, the more he
makes me suffer.

364
00:36:39,720 --> 00:36:40,920
The more I love him.

365
00:36:42,300 --> 00:36:44,100
I do like my men to be men.

366
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,480
Do you know that Justin once beat
England's champion prizefighter for a

367
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:50,700
What do you think of that?

368
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:52,860
I don't know what to think.

369
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,900
No. I had forgotten you were a little
country mouse.

370
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,100
I will wager you do not know the half of
what goes on in this house.

371
00:37:01,860 --> 00:37:02,860
I have eyes.

372
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:04,100
I can see.

373
00:37:04,300 --> 00:37:05,820
What about what you cannot see?

374
00:38:26,350 --> 00:38:28,650
You are interested in panelling?

375
00:38:29,090 --> 00:38:30,090
Yes.

376
00:38:30,550 --> 00:38:34,890
Well, that is... We have something like
it in the library at Stapley Court.

377
00:38:37,470 --> 00:38:41,790
In this house, it really does not pay to
be curious.

378
00:38:42,650 --> 00:38:44,570
You must have heard Mandrake is haunted.

379
00:38:44,870 --> 00:38:47,290
Well, you never know what ghost you may
meet.

380
00:38:49,750 --> 00:38:52,530
Well, if Mandrake is haunted, I cannot
blame the ghost.

381
00:38:52,890 --> 00:38:54,510
The house is so beautiful.

382
00:38:59,050 --> 00:39:00,310
I like to hear you say that.

383
00:39:01,710 --> 00:39:02,870
I love Mandrake.

384
00:39:10,850 --> 00:39:11,850
Party, faction.

385
00:39:12,070 --> 00:39:16,870
Then there is Norman, Edward the
Confessor, Elizabethan, Restoration,

386
00:39:16,870 --> 00:39:17,870
Anne.

387
00:39:18,850 --> 00:39:21,390
Each generation has added to and
improved that house.

388
00:39:22,170 --> 00:39:24,550
It's a great house, and a gracious one.

389
00:39:29,260 --> 00:39:30,260
Are you happy here?

390
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:32,780
It's a strange room.

391
00:39:33,020 --> 00:39:35,580
You were happy when I placed you next to
your cousin Nicholas at dinner.

392
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,100
I'm very fond of Nicholas.

393
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:38,920
You contemplate marrying him?

394
00:39:39,260 --> 00:39:41,560
I do not. Any more than he wishes to
marry me.

395
00:39:42,740 --> 00:39:43,880
He's in love with Lady Isabel.

396
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,120
And you?

397
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:47,620
I'm in love with no one.

398
00:39:49,980 --> 00:39:52,500
Least of all the man to whom you are
betrothed.

399
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,500
Shall I make you fall in love with me,
Serena?

400
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,180
Are you afraid of love or merely of me?

401
00:40:38,370 --> 00:40:41,530
It's true this part of the coast is
alive with smugglers. That's really your

402
00:40:41,530 --> 00:40:42,249
naval patrol.

403
00:40:42,250 --> 00:40:45,330
There are so many uninhabited sections
we couldn't hope to cover them all.

404
00:40:45,630 --> 00:40:47,870
And all the time more fast boats are
being built in France.

405
00:40:48,130 --> 00:40:48,908
Fast boats?

406
00:40:48,910 --> 00:40:49,910
They can do nine knots.

407
00:40:50,110 --> 00:40:51,170
They're simply outrunners.

408
00:40:51,750 --> 00:40:52,750
And the customs men.

409
00:40:53,410 --> 00:40:54,750
And what do they smuggle?

410
00:40:55,070 --> 00:40:59,150
Paris' finest velvet, brandy, tobacco,
silk and satin.

411
00:40:59,410 --> 00:41:02,690
And the damnable thing is the gold they
get for them goes straight back to

412
00:41:02,690 --> 00:41:03,690
France.

413
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:11,740
Devil take you, Rutum.

414
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,380
Oh, Harriet, I do hope he does. I
couldn't bear to be parted from him.

415
00:41:17,460 --> 00:41:18,720
You shall pay for that.

416
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:20,580
To challenge me again?

417
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:21,880
To eternity.

418
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:23,120
Fifty guineas?

419
00:41:23,540 --> 00:41:24,540
A hundred.

420
00:41:25,240 --> 00:41:26,620
Oh, reckless lady.

421
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,820
My apologies, Harry. A challenge will
have to wait.

422
00:41:36,220 --> 00:41:37,220
Shall we go back?

423
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,860
They weren't supposed to be here for
four days yet.

424
00:41:59,740 --> 00:42:01,980
Oh, I should have foreseen it. You have
the money.

425
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,360
Here's a wee bit light to me.

426
00:42:09,220 --> 00:42:10,220
Give me that.

427
00:42:10,740 --> 00:42:12,460
You have not been dipping into it.

428
00:42:15,240 --> 00:42:17,200
A few guineas here, a few guineas there.

429
00:42:17,820 --> 00:42:19,780
I thought I'd have time to win the money
back.

430
00:42:20,140 --> 00:42:21,140
What will you do?

431
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,280
You can hardly offer those beauties
double or quid. Hold your tongue.

432
00:42:26,700 --> 00:42:27,720
Give me that stick.

433
00:42:30,540 --> 00:42:31,720
I shall be back directly.

434
00:43:10,190 --> 00:43:11,190
Bunch of teary men.

435
00:43:11,910 --> 00:43:12,910
Are you mad?

436
00:43:13,130 --> 00:43:16,310
Coming on a night for the moon? Black as
they are to hell's waistcoat when we

437
00:43:16,310 --> 00:43:17,850
left Calais. Give me the paper.

438
00:43:22,810 --> 00:43:23,810
Brandy.

439
00:43:24,450 --> 00:43:25,450
Wine.

440
00:43:26,470 --> 00:43:27,470
Brenton Silk.

441
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,120
My dear, Mr. Stately, how charming you
look. I trust you're enjoying yourself.

442
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,340
Warn my mother that the Coast Guards are
here. Get her through the door behind

443
00:44:08,340 --> 00:44:09,340
the paddling.

444
00:44:13,380 --> 00:44:17,120
You caught me unawares. I was not
expecting you until next week. This

445
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,780
week, with what you make out of us, you
try and tell us you're short with your

446
00:44:20,780 --> 00:44:22,400
gold. You shall have your gold.

447
00:44:22,700 --> 00:44:24,160
Five guineas a man, as usual.

448
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,860
Only it'll have to be two now and three
later.

449
00:44:31,250 --> 00:44:33,690
You filthy, ungrateful rabble.

450
00:44:34,270 --> 00:44:35,410
Who paid for your vote?

451
00:44:35,750 --> 00:44:36,830
Who made the connections?

452
00:44:37,650 --> 00:44:40,310
Where would you be if it were not for
me? The

453
00:44:40,310 --> 00:44:46,110
ladyship's never let us down before.

454
00:44:46,410 --> 00:44:48,590
And it's right. We are four days early.

455
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,180
It's a tidy living for all of us.

456
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:07,780
Let's not spoil it.

457
00:45:08,180 --> 00:45:10,880
I say we take the two guineas now and
the raft next week.

458
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:12,900
That's the best we can do. Right then.

459
00:45:13,240 --> 00:45:14,520
There's no right then by me.

460
00:45:14,940 --> 00:45:16,360
I'll have my five now.

461
00:45:17,740 --> 00:45:19,260
Take your paw off me.

462
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:21,720
Keep your distance.

463
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,240
Your stench sickens me.

464
00:45:26,740 --> 00:45:29,480
What do you say, lads? Don't listen,
sir. We'll spoil everything.

465
00:45:29,780 --> 00:45:31,820
We're agreed, lads. The excise men.

466
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:33,040
They're upstairs.

467
00:45:33,420 --> 00:45:36,540
And soldiers. Ricky, back to the boat.
Not till we get our five guineas. I'll

468
00:45:36,540 --> 00:45:37,580
show you, you fool.

469
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:39,420
There is no more.

470
00:45:40,380 --> 00:45:42,680
Right, lads. We'll have that necklace
then.

471
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:55,520
I will send word when I have the rest of
your gold.

472
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,440
See that that is removed.

473
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,220
Set yourself together, girl.

474
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,220
Have you never seen a wild boar spear
before?

475
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:07,520
Come.

476
00:46:08,460 --> 00:46:10,180
Let us rejoin our guests.

477
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:14,440
Move!

478
00:46:20,420 --> 00:46:25,540
Mother, may I introduce Captain Jackson,
who's searching the area for smugglers.

479
00:46:25,940 --> 00:46:26,940
Lord, how exciting.

480
00:46:27,260 --> 00:46:28,720
Have you found any yet?

481
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:30,080
No, Your Ladyship.

482
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:34,100
But we have had news of a fast boat in
the area, and we wondered if we might

483
00:46:34,100 --> 00:46:35,700
search your shoreline. But of course.

484
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,800
Perhaps you would care to take a stroll
through my guests.

485
00:46:39,340 --> 00:46:41,280
There are some desperate fellows among
them.

486
00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:43,240
That won't be necessary, Your Ladyship.

487
00:46:44,420 --> 00:46:48,000
Just the shoreline. If you catch any, I
want first sight of them.

488
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,100
I hear they're vastly terrifying.

489
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,520
They're less terrifying after a touch of
cold steel.

490
00:46:56,700 --> 00:46:57,700
So I've heard.

491
00:46:59,240 --> 00:47:00,240
Your Ladyship.

492
00:47:07,300 --> 00:47:12,260
My dear, I've heard many ways of running
from a losing streak, but aren't you

493
00:47:12,260 --> 00:47:13,520
dramatizing, rather?

494
00:47:13,820 --> 00:47:17,480
My breaking off our game had nothing to
do with the military intrusion.

495
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,440
You may recall I left some time before
they arrived.

496
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:22,080
Indeed I do.

497
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:28,940
It also occurs to me that the silk that
my little fancy there is wearing so

498
00:47:28,940 --> 00:47:29,940
charmingly...

499
00:47:30,670 --> 00:47:34,030
And she seems to have had rather
startling experience recently.

500
00:47:34,910 --> 00:47:38,750
That that silk could have come only from
Paris.

501
00:47:40,890 --> 00:47:43,130
As indeed for this.

502
00:47:43,570 --> 00:47:44,830
Unhand me, sir.

503
00:47:45,510 --> 00:47:46,670
You are too sharp.

504
00:47:46,930 --> 00:47:50,750
Good gracious, no, Harriet, you know me
dim as a poor man's candle.

505
00:47:51,030 --> 00:47:55,170
Now, I simply see the puzzle piecing
together.

506
00:47:55,590 --> 00:47:56,590
You do.

507
00:47:57,050 --> 00:47:59,130
It's not something that preoccupies me.

508
00:47:59,550 --> 00:48:04,770
I should probably forget the whole
thing. Were I to find myself united with

509
00:48:04,770 --> 00:48:09,010
deliciously silken creature who's
standing just behind us.

510
00:48:09,710 --> 00:48:10,770
The ladyship.

511
00:48:12,190 --> 00:48:14,970
I'm tired and would ask to be excused.

512
00:48:15,430 --> 00:48:16,430
You may go.

513
00:48:19,950 --> 00:48:21,290
Harriet, my dear.

514
00:48:22,610 --> 00:48:24,930
I have a proposition for you.

515
00:48:30,810 --> 00:48:31,810
What is it?

516
00:48:31,870 --> 00:48:32,870
What's happened?

517
00:49:03,900 --> 00:49:04,940
Come on, Moria, let us go.

518
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:12,720
How nice of you to visit me.

519
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:17,140
Do you know, I saw you the first night
through the door from the turret room.

520
00:50:17,660 --> 00:50:20,220
There hasn't been anybody there for a
long, long time.

521
00:50:21,180 --> 00:50:22,180
Who are you?

522
00:50:22,820 --> 00:50:24,540
Oh, my name's Serena Stavely.

523
00:50:24,940 --> 00:50:26,960
And I fear my story is a bit of a
strange one.

524
00:50:27,240 --> 00:50:29,260
I was won in a wager by the Lord Vulcan.

525
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,360
By the Lord Vulcan?

526
00:50:32,180 --> 00:50:33,180
You were really?

527
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,440
Oh, what a rogue the fellow must be.

528
00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:41,800
I heard voices, my Lord Vulcan.

529
00:50:42,380 --> 00:50:45,520
It's all right, Stanton. We have a
charming guest.

530
00:50:46,100 --> 00:50:47,540
Get some tea. There's a good fellow.

531
00:50:48,180 --> 00:50:49,180
Just so, my Lord.

532
00:50:51,380 --> 00:50:54,480
Poor Stanton. He knows nobody should be
here.

533
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:56,680
He probably thinks you came down the
chimney.

534
00:50:57,020 --> 00:50:58,400
But he called you the Lord Vulcan.

535
00:50:58,720 --> 00:51:01,880
That means Dothan isn't the real Lord,
is he? You are.

536
00:51:02,500 --> 00:51:03,500
No, no, no.

537
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:05,580
I am dead.

538
00:51:09,310 --> 00:51:10,308
Ah, yes.

539
00:51:10,310 --> 00:51:16,430
The old story, extravagant younger wife,
ruins, quiet, scholastic,

540
00:51:16,670 --> 00:51:17,950
older husband.

541
00:51:19,090 --> 00:51:24,270
Well, Harriet eventually bankrupted my
whole family with her gambling.

542
00:51:24,950 --> 00:51:31,130
But there was a huge fortune waiting in
trust for my son Justin on my death.

543
00:51:31,370 --> 00:51:37,070
So we waited until he went on the grand
tour of Europe, and then I died.

544
00:51:37,630 --> 00:51:38,970
And he became...

545
00:51:39,230 --> 00:51:44,650
Lord Vulcan and a very rich man. The
family was saved, and I retired down

546
00:51:45,690 --> 00:51:46,710
That's dreadful.

547
00:51:46,950 --> 00:51:48,490
Oh, for poor Justin, not for me.

548
00:51:48,870 --> 00:51:51,630
You see, my dear, I've always been a
scholar.

549
00:51:51,990 --> 00:51:57,690
So here I could complete my life's work,
which was the history of Mandrake from

550
00:51:57,690 --> 00:52:00,010
the very beginning until the present
day.

551
00:52:00,330 --> 00:52:01,630
But why poor Justin?

552
00:52:03,810 --> 00:52:07,410
My son is the most honorable man I know.

553
00:52:08,300 --> 00:52:11,020
When he found out what had happened, he
was like a crazy man.

554
00:52:11,460 --> 00:52:15,260
And then he realized there was nothing
he could do about it without disgracing

555
00:52:15,260 --> 00:52:20,920
both me and his mother. So finally, he
accepted it, but it changed him.

556
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:28,080
He used to be such a laughing, open,
joyous young man. He became embittered,

557
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:29,080
cynical.

558
00:52:29,940 --> 00:52:35,160
He was like a locked door, detesting the
fact that he was living a lie.

559
00:52:36,910 --> 00:52:37,910
A locked door.

560
00:52:39,210 --> 00:52:43,410
Oh, dear, you know, I shouldn't really
be telling you all this, except you'd

561
00:52:43,410 --> 00:52:47,290
already guessed the important part, and
I'm still vulnerable to a pretty face.

562
00:52:48,010 --> 00:52:50,750
You do realise I've put myself in your
hands?

563
00:52:51,730 --> 00:52:52,890
They're safe hands.

564
00:52:55,850 --> 00:52:57,090
Do you love my son?

565
00:52:58,890 --> 00:52:59,890
No.

566
00:53:01,270 --> 00:53:02,270
Mm -hm.

567
00:53:02,570 --> 00:53:03,810
And does he love you?

568
00:53:04,550 --> 00:53:05,610
Why should he?

569
00:53:10,220 --> 00:53:11,920
what I would give to be in his shoes.

570
00:53:14,240 --> 00:53:21,200
I didn't mind the occasional case of
brandy. Everyone

571
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:21,979
does that.

572
00:53:21,980 --> 00:53:23,500
Not only occasional, I swear.

573
00:53:23,860 --> 00:53:26,740
Stop lying to me. I know everything.

574
00:53:27,060 --> 00:53:29,420
You're now running a huge criminal
conspiracy.

575
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:31,080
What an exaggeration.

576
00:53:32,660 --> 00:53:34,260
I've let you use me.

577
00:53:35,720 --> 00:53:37,260
I've always detected gambling.

578
00:53:37,820 --> 00:53:41,660
Yet I've allowed myself to gain a cruel
and sinister reputation by using my good

579
00:53:41,660 --> 00:53:43,340
luck against any fool who'd take me on.

580
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,540
I thought the money was going on
Mandrake.

581
00:53:45,940 --> 00:53:49,020
Oh, I knew you were squandering some of
it. The merest amount.

582
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:52,440
I didn't mind that too much.

583
00:53:53,220 --> 00:53:57,160
But now I find that what it was really
for was to finance crime, to pay for the

584
00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:58,660
contraband you brought in from France.

585
00:53:59,100 --> 00:54:00,540
How much did you make for it in London?

586
00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:01,980
Double? Triple?

587
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:12,120
It's not enough for you. My money, your
gambling, the smuggling. It's not

588
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:13,440
enough. You want more.

589
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,640
More, more. You're insane with greed.

590
00:54:21,300 --> 00:54:22,480
You disgust me.

591
00:54:25,460 --> 00:54:26,460
It's got to stop.

592
00:54:26,860 --> 00:54:29,060
For the honor of the family, it's going
to stop.

593
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:32,480
And if I refuse?

594
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:36,680
I shall have the underground caverns and
the passages from the sea blocked up.

595
00:54:37,260 --> 00:54:39,480
You could not do that to Mandrake.

596
00:54:39,720 --> 00:54:42,240
It's been part of the house for
centuries. I will do it.

597
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,980
And have you considered what I will do?

598
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:53,200
I would reveal your father is still
alive and that you are an imposter.

599
00:54:54,140 --> 00:54:56,480
It will bring the world crashing about
your ears.

600
00:54:56,700 --> 00:54:58,900
You've used that threat once too often,
Mother.

601
00:54:59,700 --> 00:55:02,280
I'm close to the point where you may
tell and be damned.

602
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:04,080
Try me.

603
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:06,100
You will obey me.

604
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,020
It stops here.

605
00:55:27,420 --> 00:55:28,420
Where's Justin?

606
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,500
He was supposed to be joining us. He
will not be long.

607
00:55:31,050 --> 00:55:33,710
He's on Thunderbolt, his new stallion.
Fierce and brute.

608
00:55:34,010 --> 00:55:35,350
Only Justin can ride him.

609
00:55:35,590 --> 00:55:37,250
Oh, that's so like Justin.

610
00:55:38,130 --> 00:55:40,570
I think Nicholas has a fine seat on a
horse, too.

611
00:55:40,830 --> 00:55:43,610
Oh, Nicholas rides well enough, but not
like Justin.

612
00:55:44,730 --> 00:55:45,810
Thank you kindly, madam.

613
00:55:47,610 --> 00:55:52,590
I, uh, I overheard a curious exchange
between Harriet and Lord Rooton.

614
00:55:53,230 --> 00:55:57,170
He was guaranteeing her 10 ,000 guineas
on delivery of the goods.

615
00:55:57,650 --> 00:55:59,350
They seem to be looking in your
direction.

616
00:56:00,890 --> 00:56:01,910
It's probably one of their gambling
plots.

617
00:56:07,110 --> 00:56:09,570
Heavens! What a magnificent beast.

618
00:56:12,350 --> 00:56:16,790
He and Justin go so well together.

619
00:56:27,570 --> 00:56:29,590
My apologies for keeping you waiting.

620
00:57:26,090 --> 00:57:27,110
Good evening, my lord.

621
00:57:28,050 --> 00:57:29,050
Oh.

622
00:57:30,310 --> 00:57:32,430
I came to see your father. My father?

623
00:57:35,350 --> 00:57:38,750
Is there any secret that can be kept
from you in this house?

624
00:57:39,470 --> 00:57:40,830
I found it by accident.

625
00:57:41,270 --> 00:57:42,270
The devil you did.

626
00:57:43,650 --> 00:57:45,150
I just came to bring him these.

627
00:57:46,350 --> 00:57:47,490
Ah, strawberries.

628
00:57:47,890 --> 00:57:50,130
It was so early. Where did they come
from?

629
00:57:51,190 --> 00:57:52,930
From your own gardens, my lord.

630
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,620
My father has a frail heart. He's
resting at the moment.

631
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,020
Well, will you please see that he gets
these with my love?

632
00:58:05,300 --> 00:58:08,900
I'm glad that you have found someone to
love at Mandrake.

633
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:13,320
In the short time you've been here, you
know all our most guarded secrets.

634
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:15,060
You can trust me.

635
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:16,520
Can I?

636
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:18,960
You have the hand of Stavely on it.

637
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,340
Such a little hand to hold the honour of
Mandrake in its palm.

638
00:58:42,020 --> 00:58:44,540
I confess I find Justin's silence
ominous.

639
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,320
Since that hideous onslaught last night,
he's hardly addressed a single word to

640
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:50,900
me. You have more to worry ahead about
than that.

641
00:58:51,340 --> 00:58:53,840
Your ladders are still waiting for the
rest of their money.

642
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,840
And I would not say that waiting is what
they are best at.

643
00:58:57,060 --> 00:58:59,260
They shall have theirs as soon as I have
mine.

644
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,400
I'm expecting gold.

645
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,260
I'm expecting it very soon.

646
00:59:11,540 --> 00:59:13,760
I beg you, Miss Serena, not to go down
tonight.

647
00:59:14,140 --> 00:59:16,680
The evil I've always felt here is
stronger than ever.

648
00:59:17,340 --> 00:59:18,340
I'm never wrong.

649
00:59:19,220 --> 00:59:20,220
Please don't go down.

650
00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:21,540
Oh, Dora, don't be absurd.

651
00:59:22,730 --> 00:59:24,250
I confess this house quite grows on me.

652
00:59:35,890 --> 00:59:37,090
Excuse me, Miss Stapley.

653
00:59:37,950 --> 00:59:40,750
A ladyship has sent me to tell you that
your dog has been hurt.

654
00:59:41,650 --> 00:59:42,650
Warrior?

655
00:59:42,870 --> 00:59:43,870
Injured?

656
00:59:44,330 --> 00:59:45,330
Where?

657
00:59:45,410 --> 00:59:46,410
Come this way, ma 'am.

658
00:59:50,910 --> 00:59:52,210
They will take you to him, ma 'am.

659
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:07,620
And when we return, it will be as man
and wife.

660
01:00:07,860 --> 01:00:08,799
Be mad.

661
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:13,480
I loathe you. You make me shudder. Oh,
how it's striking. I long to make you

662
01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:14,480
shudder.

663
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,780
Go. Repent, my soul, Serena. I offer you
married.

664
01:00:22,100 --> 01:00:25,640
Position, title, the finest house in
Wiltshire. What are you making such a

665
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,920
about? Now, listen to me. It's only out
of good nature that I offer you

666
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,400
anything. I could take you without
marrying you.

667
01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:35,240
Suppose I made that fact known.

668
01:00:37,060 --> 01:00:40,080
Gossip, perhaps, about your enthusiasm
for the sport.

669
01:00:40,340 --> 01:00:41,960
Where would you be then, eh?

670
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:43,940
I'll kill you myself!

671
01:01:09,130 --> 01:01:12,950
No doubt. Meanwhile, have your money,
your watch, your jewels, and all the

672
01:01:12,950 --> 01:01:14,790
flash you dandies dole yourselves up in.

673
01:01:16,350 --> 01:01:17,350
Come on.

674
01:01:18,590 --> 01:01:20,470
Take it a bit down. Thank you.

675
01:01:21,810 --> 01:01:24,370
No, miss, I don't take from pretty young
ladies.

676
01:01:26,150 --> 01:01:27,310
So, would you help me?

677
01:01:28,690 --> 01:01:29,950
You look as if somebody could.

678
01:01:31,230 --> 01:01:32,810
Well, this man was carrying me off.

679
01:01:33,570 --> 01:01:35,230
Would you take me back to Mandrake
House?

680
01:01:36,350 --> 01:01:37,570
God bless me so.

681
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:39,900
If I'd have known her to come out on me
white charger.

682
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:46,160
Up you come, then.

683
01:01:48,180 --> 01:01:50,580
You're insane going with a man like
that.

684
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,940
But she'd be sane staying with a man
like you.

685
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:32,180
They call me Joker.

686
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:35,180
That's because I'm always laughing to
stop them crying.

687
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:37,880
Innkeeper I were, doing well.

688
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,380
Then the wife ran off with this villain,
taking all my savings.

689
01:02:42,540 --> 01:02:43,540
I caught up with him.

690
01:02:44,500 --> 01:02:45,520
He laughed at me.

691
01:02:46,180 --> 01:02:47,240
I hit him and he died.

692
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,180
That's been me on the run ever since.

693
01:02:52,620 --> 01:02:53,980
There's Mandrake Miss up yonder.

694
01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:56,560
I don't come no closer.

695
01:02:57,260 --> 01:02:58,740
Well, I'll never be able to thank you
enough.

696
01:02:59,920 --> 01:03:05,180
Good day in the wicked world and all
that easy boy easy easy

697
01:03:05,180 --> 01:03:12,060
There we are miss yeah Come on

698
01:03:12,060 --> 01:03:13,960
boy be lucky

699
01:03:50,990 --> 01:03:51,990
What happened?

700
01:03:52,350 --> 01:03:56,550
I can't tell you. You wouldn't believe
it. Let me be the judge of that. Tell

701
01:03:56,950 --> 01:03:58,670
I can't. I see.

702
01:03:59,290 --> 01:04:00,870
You're just like all the rest.

703
01:04:01,310 --> 01:04:05,250
Taking the moonlight, I believe it's
called. It was Nicholas, I suppose, or

704
01:04:05,250 --> 01:04:07,250
Peter Dillingham. Was he your fancy?

705
01:04:07,550 --> 01:04:08,529
Dare you?

706
01:04:08,530 --> 01:04:12,050
You must know I was lured outside in
your mother's name by one of your

707
01:04:12,110 --> 01:04:13,110
My mother's?

708
01:04:13,170 --> 01:04:16,490
Then I was seized and carried off by the
man I hate more than anyone else in the

709
01:04:16,490 --> 01:04:19,250
world. Then he tried to force himself on
me.

710
01:04:29,930 --> 01:04:30,930
It didn't work.

711
01:04:31,490 --> 01:04:35,590
What? Rutum and Miss Daverley. Your
nasty little plot.

712
01:04:35,910 --> 01:04:36,910
It failed.

713
01:04:37,470 --> 01:04:40,470
Have you lost your wits? You arranged to
have him doctor.

714
01:04:40,870 --> 01:04:42,430
What an absurd fancy.

715
01:04:42,810 --> 01:04:43,810
She's escaped.

716
01:04:43,950 --> 01:04:45,170
She's back in the house.

717
01:04:45,830 --> 01:04:47,430
I've spoken to her.

718
01:04:49,250 --> 01:04:52,910
Whatever happened, I played no part in
it. What did he offer you?

719
01:04:53,310 --> 01:04:55,190
I don't know what you mean. Your price.

720
01:04:55,710 --> 01:04:56,589
Heavens above.

721
01:04:56,590 --> 01:04:57,890
That simpering creature.

722
01:04:58,410 --> 01:05:00,050
Where else would she find such a good
match?

723
01:05:00,570 --> 01:05:04,710
One day she would have thanked me for
it. How much? I declare your question is

724
01:05:04,710 --> 01:05:08,850
indecent. If Harry Rutum felt pleased to
give me a modest present for the

725
01:05:08,850 --> 01:05:09,850
introduction.

726
01:05:14,490 --> 01:05:16,450
I want the truth.

727
01:05:20,710 --> 01:05:23,670
Very well, then, devil take you. He was
giving me 10 ,000 guineas.

728
01:05:23,970 --> 01:05:26,670
Little enough when you consider she was
bringing him a dowry of 80.

729
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,300
Besides, I will not have that chit
marrying you and you zapping my place.

730
01:05:32,900 --> 01:05:33,900
Ten thousand.

731
01:05:34,180 --> 01:05:39,060
That is your price for selling one of my
guests out of my house to a lecher.

732
01:05:39,780 --> 01:05:40,940
It was not like that.

733
01:05:41,740 --> 01:05:46,540
It's a stain on the honour of the
Vulcans of Mandrake that we will never

734
01:05:46,540 --> 01:05:53,000
down. That is all life means to you, the
Vulcans of Mandrake. Ah, the

735
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:54,860
tedium of listening to it all my life.

736
01:05:55,470 --> 01:05:57,430
First from my husband and now from my
son.

737
01:05:58,170 --> 01:06:02,410
Your father married me to set a jewel in
Mandrake. He didn't want flesh and

738
01:06:02,410 --> 01:06:07,510
blood. Well, my desires far surpass
bricks and stone.

739
01:06:08,330 --> 01:06:11,170
Mandrake may be your mistress, but it is
not my master.

740
01:06:16,330 --> 01:06:19,410
Well, have I silenced you at last?

741
01:06:19,650 --> 01:06:20,670
The house will be closed.

742
01:06:21,030 --> 01:06:22,490
The tunnels will be blocked.

743
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:24,260
You will be sent abroad.

744
01:06:24,500 --> 01:06:25,660
You cannot mean to banish me.

745
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,320
Justin, you cannot.

746
01:06:29,740 --> 01:06:31,740
But first, there is something I must do.

747
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,000
Back to back, if you please, gentlemen.

748
01:06:41,700 --> 01:06:45,280
On the word commence, you will each take
ten paces.

749
01:06:46,180 --> 01:06:49,300
On my timing, turn and fire.

750
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:52,000
Commence.

751
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:58,060
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight.

752
01:06:58,460 --> 01:06:59,460
Justin!

753
01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:10,560
And

754
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:17,940
his

755
01:07:17,940 --> 01:07:21,350
lordship said beforehand that if
anything was to happen to him... I was

756
01:07:21,350 --> 01:07:22,690
and tell your ladyship immediate.

757
01:07:26,870 --> 01:07:27,870
You.

758
01:07:28,990 --> 01:07:30,290
You killed him.

759
01:07:32,390 --> 01:07:34,770
He fought this duel for you.

760
01:07:35,390 --> 01:07:38,230
A paltry scrap of a thing.

761
01:07:38,790 --> 01:07:40,670
It bloodied on your head.

762
01:07:57,569 --> 01:08:00,770
Saddle Thunderbolt. Only his Lordship
can handle him, Miss. He's not properly

763
01:08:00,770 --> 01:08:04,170
broken. He's a killer. He's the fastest
horse in the stables and I must get to

764
01:08:04,170 --> 01:08:05,310
London. Saddle him.

765
01:08:06,610 --> 01:08:08,170
I said saddle him!

766
01:08:43,790 --> 01:08:44,810
Do you love my son?

767
01:08:45,510 --> 01:08:46,510
Does he love you?

768
01:08:46,990 --> 01:08:48,950
Shall I make you fall in love with me,
sir?

769
01:08:51,510 --> 01:08:53,870
Set your little hand to hold the honor
of Mandrake.

770
01:08:57,170 --> 01:08:58,689
You cannot marry my son, of course.

771
01:08:58,970 --> 01:09:00,490
Your blood is on your hair.

772
01:09:01,130 --> 01:09:02,130
He will never marry.

773
01:09:02,910 --> 01:09:04,529
He fought this evil for you.

774
01:09:04,930 --> 01:09:05,930
You killed him.

775
01:09:06,510 --> 01:09:07,670
Do not die, Justin.

776
01:09:08,490 --> 01:09:09,870
Please do not die. Please.

777
01:09:19,669 --> 01:09:22,970
The Lord Vulcan cannot receive, Miss...
David Lee.

778
01:09:35,330 --> 01:09:38,529
Leflamme, I swear you are the most
amusing woman in London.

779
01:09:39,450 --> 01:09:41,250
Justin... Miss David Lee, my lord!

780
01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:25,080
Come in.

781
01:10:30,700 --> 01:10:33,660
I prepared your bath, Miss Stavely. I'm
keen to have it.

782
01:10:33,940 --> 01:10:35,080
Aye, you wasn't a mess.

783
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:36,980
Cleaned? What time is it?

784
01:10:37,180 --> 01:10:38,320
Noon, Miss. Noon?

785
01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:41,080
His Lordship awaits you in the drawing
room. When are you ready, Miss?

786
01:10:43,440 --> 01:10:44,560
He isn't much injured.

787
01:10:44,900 --> 01:10:47,900
Oh, Lord bless you, no, Miss. Just a
graze, they tell me.

788
01:10:49,020 --> 01:10:50,020
And Lord Rutham?

789
01:10:50,260 --> 01:10:51,260
Fled to France.

790
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:52,900
He'll not show his face in England
again.

791
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:21,920
I trust you slept well.

792
01:11:22,420 --> 01:11:23,760
Yes, thank you, I did.

793
01:11:24,340 --> 01:11:26,360
Well, that is, I'm sorry I slept so
late.

794
01:11:27,260 --> 01:11:28,260
Do sit down.

795
01:11:35,850 --> 01:11:39,030
When a young lady has been brave enough
to do what you did, she's entitled to

796
01:11:39,030 --> 01:11:40,030
sleep late.

797
01:11:40,730 --> 01:11:44,730
Unfortunately, she must also be prepared
to face certain consequences.

798
01:11:46,570 --> 01:11:47,570
I don't understand.

799
01:11:49,010 --> 01:11:51,550
Are you sure you feel strong enough to
face such matters?

800
01:11:51,950 --> 01:11:52,990
I feel quite all right.

801
01:11:53,790 --> 01:11:58,590
Your epic ride to my aid on the most
fearsome animal in my stables is already

802
01:11:58,590 --> 01:12:00,650
being acclaimed in every club in London.

803
01:12:01,510 --> 01:12:02,770
And the talk of the club?

804
01:12:03,470 --> 01:12:07,950
A young lady arriving in that dramatic
fashion, unaccompanied into the house of

805
01:12:07,950 --> 01:12:08,950
a bachelor.

806
01:12:09,610 --> 01:12:11,990
You must see that you've compromised
yourself.

807
01:12:13,450 --> 01:12:14,450
Oh.

808
01:12:14,950 --> 01:12:16,510
Is that all you have to say?

809
01:12:17,330 --> 01:12:20,510
Well, actually, it was for your... Yes.

810
01:12:21,370 --> 01:12:22,510
Go on.

811
01:12:22,930 --> 01:12:26,350
My... Nothing, my lord.

812
01:12:28,590 --> 01:12:32,810
What it amounts to is that a decision in
my affairs has been thrust upon us.

813
01:12:34,030 --> 01:12:35,770
We can no longer go on drifting.

814
01:12:37,550 --> 01:12:39,710
No. I suppose not.

815
01:12:42,690 --> 01:12:46,590
I therefore have the very great honour
to ask you to be my wife.

816
01:12:52,850 --> 01:12:53,850
Your wife?

817
01:12:55,590 --> 01:12:56,590
No.

818
01:12:57,010 --> 01:13:02,130
No, I'm sorry, I can't. I mean, I will
not allow you to marry me out of a sense

819
01:13:02,130 --> 01:13:03,130
of beauty.

820
01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:14,640
Come here, Serena.

821
01:13:15,100 --> 01:13:16,100
No.

822
01:13:18,220 --> 01:13:20,520
You're going to have to swear to obey me
when we marry.

823
01:13:20,820 --> 01:13:22,280
You may as well start now.

824
01:13:23,180 --> 01:13:24,180
Come here.

825
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:27,200
Why?

826
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:33,680
What do you see?

827
01:13:36,260 --> 01:13:38,740
I see the famous dancer, La Flamme.

828
01:13:39,690 --> 01:13:43,210
You see, my good friend John Burleigh
handing a flam into a coach which he

829
01:13:43,210 --> 01:13:47,650
bought her, which will take her to a
charming little house in Chelsea, which

830
01:13:47,650 --> 01:13:51,890
also bought her, where later, no doubt,
he will join her, as he does most days

831
01:13:51,890 --> 01:13:56,830
and nights, unless, of course, he
happens to be taking her out to visit

832
01:13:56,830 --> 01:13:57,830
friends.

833
01:13:58,130 --> 01:14:01,130
But I thought she was... No.

834
01:14:02,550 --> 01:14:04,210
She has not been for some time.

835
01:14:06,950 --> 01:14:08,410
Not since after I met you.

836
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:12,880
Now, will you marry me?

837
01:14:21,220 --> 01:14:23,440
We shall be married in the private
chapel of Mandrake.

838
01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,040
You can go back there and make your
arrangements.

839
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:29,580
I will stay here and arrange for a
special license and follow you.

840
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:35,280
I've sent for your maid, Eudora, to
bring you fresh clothes and travel back

841
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:36,280
you.

842
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:46,620
Why did I cancel this evening's
entertainment?

843
01:14:48,420 --> 01:14:50,240
It would be easy to rearrange it, ma
'am.

844
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:52,740
Yet what do I want with those half
-wits?

845
01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:56,120
Grasping ill -bred scavengers God in
heaven.

846
01:14:56,440 --> 01:14:58,240
You're still upset from yesterday, ma
'am.

847
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:01,940
Now that we know dear Justin is safe,
why not go and rest? I cannot rest.

848
01:15:03,300 --> 01:15:04,320
I must be alone.

849
01:15:05,500 --> 01:15:06,860
Alone with my thoughts.

850
01:15:10,620 --> 01:15:12,940
Oh, I am mad as fire with myself.

851
01:15:13,870 --> 01:15:15,910
It should have been I who wrote to
darling Justin.

852
01:15:16,870 --> 01:15:19,930
On Thunderbolt, sister dear, you would
never have got out of the stable yard.

853
01:15:20,910 --> 01:15:22,630
The coach in four is more your style.

854
01:15:23,030 --> 01:15:24,830
I would have taken something faster than
that.

855
01:15:25,670 --> 01:15:27,990
Nicholas would have driven me. No, I
would not.

856
01:15:28,570 --> 01:15:32,230
As it is, I'm surprised at my cousin's
indiscretion. I should be obliged if it

857
01:15:32,230 --> 01:15:33,850
went no further. I adore the child.

858
01:15:34,270 --> 01:15:36,030
I wouldn't dream of gossiping about her.

859
01:15:37,330 --> 01:15:38,330
I cannot be alone.

860
01:15:39,010 --> 01:15:40,890
It feels as though my brain were on
fire.

861
01:15:41,810 --> 01:15:45,530
Something somewhere is monstrously
wrong. Oh, it is just fancy, ma 'am.

862
01:15:45,770 --> 01:15:46,990
Come and sit down, do.

863
01:15:49,010 --> 01:15:50,010
I knew it.

864
01:15:52,930 --> 01:15:53,930
It isn't Justin.

865
01:15:59,870 --> 01:16:01,250
They are to be married.

866
01:16:01,890 --> 01:16:06,110
Who? Why, Justin and that sly -faced
maggot, Serena.

867
01:16:06,450 --> 01:16:07,690
Serena? Serena?

868
01:16:08,130 --> 01:16:09,750
What more does he say? I have...

869
01:16:10,470 --> 01:16:11,470
Matters to rain.

870
01:16:14,530 --> 01:16:16,610
She's about to have the vapours. I'll
take odds on it.

871
01:16:18,650 --> 01:16:21,210
Serena, the milk -faced little snake.

872
01:16:21,570 --> 01:16:25,570
She squirmed her way into my favour so
that she could betray me. I'm sure she

873
01:16:25,570 --> 01:16:27,630
did nothing of the sort. And you
probably helped her.

874
01:16:27,890 --> 01:16:32,210
Yes, that was it. It was a plot between
you and that stupid child.

875
01:16:32,590 --> 01:16:33,590
Isabel, I swear.

876
01:16:33,690 --> 01:16:35,590
You can swear your head off and I'll not
believe you.

877
01:16:36,140 --> 01:16:40,100
The lying, cheating, conniving, Judas
-faced little man! Inna Bell, I beg of

878
01:16:40,100 --> 01:16:41,660
you! Yes, go on, beg!

879
01:16:41,980 --> 01:16:43,580
That is all I have ever heard you do!

880
01:16:43,940 --> 01:16:46,840
I'm sick of your whining after me like a
ripped dog!

881
01:16:47,380 --> 01:16:50,640
I have lost a real man, and all you can
do is beg!

882
01:16:50,900 --> 01:16:51,900
You are pathetic!

883
01:16:52,500 --> 01:16:55,060
Stop it! Do you hear me? Let go of me!
Stop it! Stop it!

884
01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:57,139
Stop it!

885
01:16:57,140 --> 01:16:59,440
You're nothing but a foiled little brat!

886
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,560
Justin never loved you! That's why you
wanted him!

887
01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:04,920
You have no time for people who really
care!

888
01:17:05,660 --> 01:17:07,360
Well, I've had enough. I'm leaving.

889
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:09,540
You will never see me again.

890
01:17:10,100 --> 01:17:14,360
Before I go, let's just say this for old
time's sake.

891
01:17:49,610 --> 01:17:53,750
My ladyship regrets that she's
indisposed, but she's instructed me,

892
01:17:53,750 --> 01:17:57,110
your new status, miss, that you were to
be given the queen's room.

893
01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:28,540
I had Yvette prepare this for you for
your wedding tomorrow.

894
01:18:29,060 --> 01:18:31,380
I trust it is to your taste. Harriet.

895
01:18:31,980 --> 01:18:33,460
I thought she'd be ready to kill me.

896
01:18:33,780 --> 01:18:35,040
Come to her senses at last.

897
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:39,100
She needs her son, and she knows her son
needs you.

898
01:19:05,390 --> 01:19:06,410
It is exquisite.

899
01:19:07,050 --> 01:19:08,550
You look like a princess.

900
01:19:09,410 --> 01:19:11,970
His lordship will be so proud of his
bride.

901
01:19:13,490 --> 01:19:14,830
But you have a big day tomorrow.

902
01:19:15,270 --> 01:19:16,270
You need your bed.

903
01:19:16,630 --> 01:19:19,070
You, Dora, I'm so excited. I know I
shouldn't sleep a wink.

904
01:19:20,830 --> 01:19:21,830
This will help.

905
01:19:29,330 --> 01:19:32,990
Now, drink this and get undressed and
then I'll tuck you in.

906
01:19:33,490 --> 01:19:37,300
No. I've got such a wonderful feeling. I
don't want to lose it in sleep just

907
01:19:37,300 --> 01:19:38,300
yet.

908
01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:40,320
Oh, well. Waste not, want not.

909
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:57,720
Eudora!

910
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:14,740
Why could you not oblige me by being
asleep like your maid?

911
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:26,520
I love you.

912
01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:02,839
Where is Mrs.

913
01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:05,580
Tavely? Her ladyship put Mrs. Tavely in
the queen's room, my lord.

914
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:05,020
Thought you could escape me.

915
01:23:10,140 --> 01:23:14,160
You know, my dear, I was coming to fetch
you. Several of you to meet me halfway.

916
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:15,640
Do something.

917
01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:19,220
Well, Mac, I've come to take our little
girl to France.

918
01:23:19,440 --> 01:23:24,240
The fast boat is waiting. Not before I
get my 10 ,000 guineas.

919
01:23:24,620 --> 01:23:29,540
I know you, Harriet. It would be 10 ,000
now and another 10 next month.

920
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:33,160
Ten after that.

921
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:36,920
Twenty.

922
01:23:44,300 --> 01:23:48,120
Now then, dear girl.

923
01:24:16,940 --> 01:24:17,940
Root him.

924
01:24:19,300 --> 01:24:21,180
Face to face this time.

925
01:25:06,540 --> 01:25:10,180
You're fighting above yourself, Rutum.
One tries to do one's best.

926
01:26:26,410 --> 01:26:27,470
Your choice, Duncan.

927
01:26:34,030 --> 01:26:35,030
That's better.

928
01:26:35,550 --> 01:26:38,390
Come along now, Serena. The long belt is
wicked.

929
01:28:06,760 --> 01:28:09,080
And I love you from the first moment I
saw you.
