All language subtitles for Unleashing Mr. Darcy [2016]

So young Princess Victoria was kept away
from other children.

And this little King Charles Spaniel was
her favorite.

His name was Dash, and she wrote in her
journal about how much he meant to her.

Imagine growing up in a big castle,
alone most of the time, and then

only 18 years old, you're crowned the
next Queen of England.

Because that is your homework for
tonight.

You will write a 300 -word journal entry
from the point of view of Queen

Victoria in 1837.

Okay, and extra credit if you include
Dash in your entry.

Uh -uh, Joe.

Sit back down, please.

I have a lacrosse practice.

We talked about this.

You need a passing grade in order to
stay on the team.

Go on to practice now, son.

Oh, I'm sorry, Mr.

Markham, but he wasn't dismissed yet.
Oh, I think the adults should be able to

work this out now, don't you?

Joe seems to have this idea that you
threatened to have him banned from the

lacrosse team.

Oh, of course I never said that.

I offered extra help so he won't get
suspended from the team. You know they

wouldn't suspend him.

He's the best player on the team.

Well, school rules say that a student
needs a passing grade in order to play

sports.

Well, Miss Scott, then you obviously
need to pass them.

Joe needs to earn his grade.

How much do you want?

You can't be serious.

People like you always have a price.

How much is yours?

The grades at the school are not for
sale.

Do I need to remind you that my wife
sits on the board of this school?

And I'm sure she would like the students
to receive the education they've paid

for, especially her own son.

You seem to be confused about how things
work here.

You're going to learn.

I promise you.

How about you take me for a walk?

Good girl.

We are going to do so well at that show,
young lady.

know if Joe's dad was trying to rattle
me or what.

Oh, I'm sure he was just puffing out his
chest.

What did you say his name was again?

Grant Markham. I'll look him up.

Mom, these invoices are ready.

Lizzie, what in the world are you doing
to Bliss?

Hand stacking.

I have to teach her to hold this
position in different places around

people, so we're ready for our big show
on Saturday.

A dog show is no place to spend your
birthday.

But the show... is so much fun, and it's
like a party.

I want to invite the best man from the
Smith wedding.

He's an investment banker.

He is so handsome.

Mom, you promised.

No more trying to fix me up.

I'm happy on my own.

Oh, hey, there he is.

Grant Markham.

He is a lobbyist for Wall Street.

Oh.

Those guys really do like to get their
own way.

You won't get his way this time.

I'm suspended because Grant Markham
complained about me. That doesn't seem

reasonable. It's a formality. Many
private schools do the same. It protects

students and gives the board the chance
to investigate the complaint.

Don't you want to know what really
happened?

I don't want to get in the middle of the
heat that she said.

That's what the investigation is for.

Dr. Thurston, doesn't the truth matter?

Of course it matters.

And you're a good teacher, Elizabeth, if
students like you.

Try to trust the process.

All I know is if I'd been practically
laid off, I'd be at home in bed with a

gallon of ice cream.

This is where I want to be.

With sweet, uncomplicated canines.

Dogs don't care about money. They don't
try to manipulate people. They're just

pure soul.

And you can brush them and make them all
pretty.

I'm going to go to the coffee place
around the corner. I will get you a

latte.

Okay, well, my group is in 20 minutes.

I won't miss it.

I promise.

Good luck, Blaise.

You don't need luck, do you?

You know you are going to melt their
hearts.

What's going on?

New judge.

We have no idea what to expect from him.

Donovan Darcy.

You haven't heard of him?

Gabrielle? Lizzie!

Oh, my gosh.

What has it been, three or four years
now? Does my mother know you're in town?

Not yet.

I'm showing my terrier Rose today.

I would have been showing Blossom, but
my handler broke her leg, poor thing.

I'm so sorry.

So, you know this judge?

Yes, and you're lucky to get him. He's
one of the best judges in New York, when

he has time, that is.

He runs his own foundation.

They give away millions every year.

Oh, there he is now.

Interesting that he's judging your group
today. He almost always judges the

terriers at home.

A sight to behold, isn't he?

Liz?

He's almost too pretty.

Look how he's talking to those people.

Up and back, please.

He looks a little arrogant to me.

You have no idea what he's saying.

Give him a chance.

Maybe he's super nice.

Where's eight?

Elizabeth,

aren't you number eight? They've been
calling you.

Oh.

Great. You're late.

Guilty.

Does that mean you take off points?

There's something that is preventing you
from entering the ring right now, or do

I need to have an invitation engraved
for you?

Sorry.

On the platform, please.

You're just so serious.

I do take these responsibilities
seriously.

Most handlers appreciate that.

Most judges crack a smile now and then.

I assume this is something that you
love.

Up and back, please.

Fine eyes.

Shame about the freckles.

I was referring to the dog.

Thank you for clarifying.

If you are confused about the way things
are done in the ring, I promise you'll

learn.

You did awesome.

Or at least Blitz did. You looked like
you were yelling at the judge.

You should have heard how he was talking
to me.

He sounded like Grant Markham.

I've always found Donovan rather
charming.

He must have a different definition of
charming.

Well, a cool, crisp charm, I admit.

Final judging.

Oh, time for the verdict.

Our winner.

Our reserve winner.

We did it, girls.

Yes.

Thank you.

I can't believe you're making me wear
this thing. That hat was my idea. I

it out myself.

You deserve a lot of the credit for that
ribbon, Lizzie.

You handled bliss beautifully.

Well, she makes it easy.

Hmm.

I want you to be my handler in New York.

Your sister told me about your
suspension.

You told her? Oh, please. Your mother is
one of my closest friends. You used to

call me Auntie.

You'll get no judgment from me.

Now, my handler will be out for months,
and Rose is on track to make champion

this year. If you come work for me, you
could have experience handling at big

shows, and you could come and stay with
me in my brownstone.

Thank you, truly. But I expect to go
back to work very soon.

Let's drink to that.

Oops,

empty. I'll be right back.

It is so good to see her. Mom is going
to flip. Totally.

Thank you for being here.

You're the best. Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Number eight.

It's Elizabeth.

Elizabeth Scott.

I see birthday wishes are in order. Yep,
she's the big 3 -0 today.

And she looks like she's having such
fun.

You were supposed to wait for me.

Allow me to introduce my sister, Zara.

This is my sister, Jenna.

You're not going to spend all day
talking again, are you?

It's like he's the king and I'm the tiny
little minion.

I'm sure that's exactly how he is.

We will leave you to your celebration.

You said that he was being rude, but you
were the one who was being rude just

now. What do you mean? His own sister
thinks he's arrogant.

She was teasing him.

I mean, she won't let me set her up.
Maybe she'll let you set her up. Mom.

so loud. Look at this face. She is
gorgeous.

Look.

I was glad to get your call. I didn't
think the investigation would go so

Yes, they move quickly on this.

So, will I be able to start back this
afternoon?

I'm sorry, Elizabeth.

You won't be returning to your
classroom.

I don't understand.

According to Grant Markham, you tried to
extort money from him for a passing

grade for Joe.

What?

That's not true. It doesn't matter
whether I believe it.

Mrs. Markham sits on the board and she
believes it.

The board's voted to let you go for
violating the ethics code of your

That's not right.

Not just for me, but for my students.

I think the media should hear about
this.

Elizabeth, this isn't a public school.
It's private.

Which means it's their world.

Right or not, they're allowed to show
you the door.

Can I at least say goodbye to my
students?

Gabrielle? It's Elizabeth.

Is that job offer as your handler still
open?

We're here, Liz.

Here we go, Liz!

Lizzie! Welcome to New York!

Aren't you adorable?

Oh, yes.

Yes, you are.

Miss Scott, what a surprise.

You.

Mr. Darcy, I don't understand. What are
you doing here?

You act as if I've invaded your
territory when you're invading mine.

neighborhood. Can I help you with... I'm
fine.

I thought you lived in an estate
somewhere not... Here.

Well, my official address is in
Connecticut, where I grew up, but this

I stay when I'm in the city.

Oh.

Of course, you have vacation homes,
probably in Hawaii or Europe.

Do you ever get confused about where you
are when you wake up?

Are you always this hostile?

I'm sorry.

We seem to rub each other in the wrong
way.

Yeah, I suppose I can be abrasive.

My good opinion, once lost is lost
forever.

What does that mean exactly?

Nothing.

Well, we have the same taste in dogs.
Yes, this is Phineas.

And I have another named Figgy just
inside over there who just gave us a new

litter of pups.

Wait, you live across the street?

When I'm not confused about where I am
when I wake up, yes.

I wonder why Gabrielle didn't tell me.

Maybe you should ask her that.

This weekend is the Mayfair show. It's a
beautiful venue.

And we expect Rose to do very well.

Don't we, darling?

Yes, we do.

Now we need to decide on what you're
going to wear.

Lizzie. Lizzie.

Earth to Elizabeth.

Sorry.

You were saying?

Why don't you tell me that Donovan Darcy
lives across the street?

Oh, so you've run into him already.

I wonder, did sparks fly between the two
of you again? If you mean did we run

into the wall of our mutual dislike,
yes.

Donovan doesn't dislike you.

I saw the way he looked at you at the
show in D .C.

Yeah. He looked so far down his nose at
me, it must have given him vertigo.

Believe me, this man wants nothing to do
with me.

Zara! Hello!

Hi!

Donovan said I should invite you over to
see the new puppies.

Oh, that's right.

Figgy's had her new baby. Yeah, so he
said to come over at three tomorrow and

that you should bring your house.

He invited me?

I'm sorry, you look familiar.

I met you in Washington, D .C.

Right,

you were the one with no manners.

Or at least that's what my brother said.

Sorry, everyone tells me I have no
filter.

One of the reasons why I love teenagers,
I teach high school.

I like it when my students always let me
know where I stand with them.

A high school teacher, wow. You must be
brave.

Crazy.

So I'll see you tomorrow?

We'll be there.

Bye.

You see?

I told you Donovan was interested in
seeing you again.

Well, I have no desire to see him.

But I will go for the Cavalier puppies.

Whatever you say.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Oh, come here.

Come here. Oh, that's a good girl.

Hi, Rosie.

Are you ready to be part of a team?

Oh, that's a good girl.

Hello, Lyma. Miss Farrow, always a
pleasure.

Um, Mr. Darcy offers his apology.

He couldn't be here.

He had an unexpected meeting.

But he told me to make sure you come in
and visit with the puppies.

He's very proud of them.

Come in.

Please, this way.

Oh, there are Figgy and her pups.

Yes, and them.

May I also present Mr.

Darcy's aunt, Miss...

Violet, don't we? Hello, Violet. And
Miss Felicity Robson, a friend of the

family. Ladies, Miss Barrow and Miss...
Just Elizabeth.

It's so nice to meet you.

Is it?

Shall I call Linus back to fetch you a
lint brush?

I was working with Gabrielle's terrier
all morning. I thought we were just

meeting puppies.

And they are adorable.

Donovan dotes on them.

In all the years I've known him, he's
never gone so silly over a litter.

That is saying something.

Now, you have known Donovan since he
was, what, 16?

And I was 14.

My brother Henry is Donovan's best
friend.

And you always manage to find a way to
tag along on all of their escapades. Oh,

yeah. Annoying little sisters tag along
whether they're wanted or not. I know. I

have two.

What were you saying about little
sisters?

How awesome they are. Hey, Zara. I have
fallen in love with your puppy. Aren't

they just the cutest things in the whole
entire world?

Where's Donovan? I need him to help me
with my history paper.

Oh, he had to leave, darling.

Foundation business.

I'd be happy to help you, Zara. This is
not your place.

Zara, Felicity will help you.

But Elizabeth is an actual teacher.

I took plenty of history classes in
college.

Come, show me where you're stuck.

Nice to meet you, Elizabeth.

Isn't she lovely?

I've always been impressed with her.

She tried hard to be there for Zara.

After all, she's going to be Zara's
sister -in -law very soon.

Come to mama.

There's my little precious baby.

Admit it.

Donovan Darcy wants nothing to do with
me. He wasn't even there.

Plus, he's practically engaged.

I'm sure if he wanted to marry Felicity,
he would have proposed ages ago.

You're just like my mother.

Can't admit when you're wrong.

Isn't it a beautiful night?

Yeah.

Look at that. Look at that, Cliff.

Number eight.

Pleasant evening for a walk, isn't it?

You scrunch,

and then you pluck.

We strip it in the direction that the
hair grows.

You should see her at the shows. She
loves the judges' attention.

Which today will be Donovan Darcy.

You sure he can take time out of his
busy schedule?

I saw that jealous glint in your eye
when you saw that picture of him with

Felicity. I just felt bad for the trees
that died to print a photo of him

arriving at a party.

It was a charity gala. He had to go. Of
course.

And he had to be in the gossip pages of
the paper, too.

museums and hospitals all over New York
have Darcy Wing.

He's been to the White House to advise
the president on philanthropy.

Of course the papers have to keep up
with him. The White House?

Mm -hmm.

It doesn't start until next week. I've
got to come early and hang out with you.

Oh, I'm so glad.

But you know where we'll be hanging out,
don't you?

This is it. This is the big show.

There's a lot of people here.

I wish I brought pom -poms. I could be
head cheerleader for Team Rosenblatt.

I just saw a woman putting a wig on a
dog.

That's cheating.

Hairpieces are against the rules.

You're worried about cheating? It was a
dog with a wig.

Seriously, this dog show stuff is not
normal.

See? They're almost headed to the altar.

Felicity sticks to Donovan Darcy like
glue.

Felicity is here lying.

Not that my nephew or our guests are any
of your concern.

She gets to me.

She owns five dogs showing here today,
and she seems to think that she's queen

of the circuit.

That's the woman you showed me in the
paper with Donovan. Yeah, that's

Then why is he looking at Elizabeth
instead of his supposed girlfriend?

My two judges.

Oh, the other one is a provisional
judge.

Donovan's training me.

I know why Donovan wasn't there when you
came to see the puppies.

Aunt Violet showed up and told Donovan
there was some big emergency at the

foundation. She knew you were coming.

How would she know that?

Oh, she knows all kinds of stuff she
shouldn't know.

Donovan thinks she has a spy in the
house.

I better go.

I still need help with my history paper.
Can I come over tomorrow?

Of course.

Number three, please.

Good luck.

Number three.

Mr.

Darcy? Mr. Cobb?

Meet Mr. Bingley.

Maybe see a dog on the platform.

Her back should be slender and agile,
and her body the breadth of a man's

She should also possess eyes full of
fire and intelligence.

I don't know what you're doing. He's
quoting the breed standard of border

terriers.

Look forward to hearing more.

Mr. Bingley, what does the standard say
about a border's temperament? I believe

it says the dog should be sweet and
affectionate.

Sweet and affectionate.

Valuable qualities.

Oh, I almost forgot. I'm worried about a
game for anything.

Miss Scott, may we see your dog on the
dining back?

You may, Mr. Darcy.

Number 19.

Thank you, Miss Scott.

Now that was entertaining.

I'm going to assume this isn't taken.

Henry. Hi.

Hi. Nice to meet you. What's your name?

Jenna. Jenna.

Lizzie, come meet Henry.

This is my sister Elizabeth.

Oh, Henry. Nice to meet you.

You're Donovan Darcy's best friend.

Yes. I can tell you all kinds of stories
of our teenaged hijinks.

Hijinks?

Donovan Darcy?

So I hope you don't mind if I ask your
sister for a number. I'm planning to ask

her out.

Or you could ask me right now.

How about tonight?

I would love to. Great.

I'm still going to need your number, so
would you put it in my phone?

Darling brother, there you are.

Hi. Hello, Elizabeth. Nice to see you
again.

You know each other?

Oh, yes. Elizabeth Scott. The one I met
at Donovan's house.

Remember?

Yes, I do.

Well, it's a pleasure meeting both the
lovely Stratt sisters.

See you tonight, Jenna. I suppose we're
leaving now.

She talked to me as if she liked me.

Maybe she does.

Final judging.

Oh, final judging.

Look.

Our winner.

Our reserve winner.

My girls took it all.

Well done.

Thank you, Mr. Darcy.

Congratulations. Thank you.

So this is what winning feels like. It's
so very sweet.

I told you this is Rose's year.

I keep forgetting.

I brought your mail.

Oh, there you go. I'm off.

Don't wait up.

I'm so glad Jenna's hit it off with
Henry.

He's a catch, you know.

Corporate lawyer, all that Robson money.

Of course, not the same level as the
Darcy money, but still.

You all right?

It's a letter from Grant Markham's
lawyer.

He's threatening to sue me for
fraudulent accusations against him.

I said the truth about him, and now he's
going to ruin me? This is ridiculous.

I'm going to go take a walk.

Lizzie.

Miss Scott.

Glad I rented you.

You don't have to say things that aren't
true.

No, but I did want to apologize for not
being home when you came to see Figgy's

puppies.

My aunt showed up with some exaggerated
story.

Sometimes it's a challenge to stay ahead
of her hidden agendas.

I'm curious.

Is that something you consider a real
problem?

I suppose it depends on how you define
problem.

How about poor, sick, oppressed, hungry?

Just because those things are not on my
list of problems does not mean my list

is empty.

I can't imagine what might be on your
list.

I taught privileged children, and at any
hint of an issue, a parent would show

up and make it go away, even if he made
the teacher go away.

Are you crying?

No, I'm not crying.

I don't cry. Why would you think I was
crying?

I'm not crying.

Oh, I love seeing his name, Henry.

He's just so amazing.

I think he might be the one.

You've only known him for a week.

I knew after the first night.

When you know, you know.

It's always been so easy for you to fall
for someone.

I wish I could be more like you.

Oh, I think you fall.

I think you just deny it to yourself,
like with Donovan.

I have not fallen for Donovan, Darcy.
Quite the opposite.

We bring out the worst in each other.
Not true.

You've had a different kind of energy
since you met him. You mean dark and

stormy? Like electrified.

Why don't you just go for it?

Just let go.

It's an amazing thing to fall.

Violet, can you tell us what you're
doing here?

I'm ready to take a plunge, so I'm
looking for the right dress.

Actually, I'm here with the lovely
Felicity Robson.

She's on the lookout for the perfect
wedding dress.

Would it be rude if I just walked up to
Felicity and asked if she was engaged to

Donovan?

Or maybe I could just ask Henry.

She is welcome to him.

Although she's much too nice for him.
She's warm and he's not.

Yes, I heard what you said about
Donovan.

And I want you to know that he's a
wonderful person.

He's been a wonderful friend to me for
more years than I can count. Are you

engaged?

There's always been an understanding
between our families that one day we'll

married. I trust Donovan to know the
right moment.

And I plan to be ready when that moment
comes.

Felicity.

They're not engaged.

I don't care.

Okay. Yeah, yeah, I think I get it.

Hey, you're awesome.

Way better at homework help than
listening.

At least she tried.

Yeah, if you call her ignoring me while
she's on her phone, try. Well, why not

give her the benefit of the doubt?

Your aunt says she might be your sister
-in -law soon.

Yeah, she wishes.

Donovan's not gonna marry her.

He yawns when he talks to her.

Not like when he talks to you.

He is wide awake.

Sort of.

electrified so when you're finished your
rough draft I'll help you edit it just

watch it is going to be the best paper I
have ever written

Do you think it's true?

I don't know.

Hello?

Ladies!

Hey! Hi.

How did the homework help go? Good.

Zara is very bright.

I know. Thank goodness she has Donovan.
What do you mean?

Well, he's raised her since their
parents died in a boating accident.

You didn't know?

No, I...

I was wondering why she was living with
her brother, but he insisted upon

raising her.

He was only 21 and Zara was five.

Henry said he could have had her shipped
off to relatives.

Violet wanted to take her, but Darcy
wanted her to stay with him. He gave up

the ordinary things guys do just so he
could be there for her.

That's right.

I had no idea.

And I told him he had no problems.

Violet made this happen.

I'll bet you anything she called the
papers and they sent a photographer.

Maybe I should fight fire with fire.

Good morning. Good morning.

I made an appointment for Rose and
Blossom at the pet spa this morning. We

them all nice and pretty for the dog
show this weekend.

And that is your mission for the day.

But grooming them is my job. Oh, they
like a trip to the spa every now and

But go on, or you'll be late.

There she is.

I'll just be a minute.

Miss Scott.

Hello.

You can call me Elizabeth.

Or Lizzie. I told Zara to call me
Lizzie. Elizabeth will do fine. It's

Never mind. Why are you here?

Oh, Gabrielle asked me to bring the
dogs.

At the same time, she knows I come to
take Figgy every week.

Gabrielle is trying to throw us
together.

I'm sorry.

I wouldn't have come had I known.

I'm going to be leaving soon anyways.

I wanted to... Thanks. Go ahead. I
wanted to apologize about what I said

other day, about you having no real
problems.

I was upset about other reasons.

I didn't take it personally. I wanted to
thank you for helping Zara. She says

you're a good teacher.

She's a good student, who obviously
thinks you're the sun and the moon.

I admire you for raising her.

Even though you were young yourself?

You should admire her. She carried me
through some difficult circumstances.

I don't know why I think money protects
people from pain.

Or you need to work.

You imagine I don't work?

Oh, I mean, other than counting your
money.

Well, clearly you have no idea how hard
it is to count money. It takes days to

get to a million. By the time you do,
you're so exhausted, you lose count. You

have to start all over again.

grueling work you know sometimes you're
almost charming i must not

have heard you right you it sounded to
me like you said you find me charming

almost not quite

you're

a mess you should see yourself

refuses to wear her ribbon today.

Oh, well that's because ribbons are for
little girls and Figgy is a mother.

She's all grown up now.

Well, it was almost a pleasure speaking
with you.

Almost?

Not quite.

Come on, Figgy.

We're back.

The dogs look great.

But you didn't really. want me to take
them there for that, did you?

What are you talking about? You wanted
me to run into Darcy.

I have no idea what you mean.

Huh.

Hmm.

I don't know who you think you are.
Coming into my house with that trash.

Accusing me of that. You need to leave.

You need to apologize. I have no
intention.

I'll do no such thing.

I... Oh, here she is.

Maybe she can explain herself.

Explain what?

This.

Here.

Let me read the headline.

Donovan Darcy was spotted yesterday
canoodling with an unidentified female

companion. Is his engagement to Felicity
Robson off?

We weren't canoodling.

Oh, yes, this is the 21st century, but
I'm fairly certain that a woman who

to seduce another woman's man is still a
loathsome creature.

Oh, step down off your high horse.

Donovan hasn't put a ring on Felicity's
finger.

That wasn't a seduction.

If you don't stay away from my nephew, I
will personally make sure you regret

it.

Are you sure you know it's the 21st
century?

Isn't a grown man allowed to choose who
he spends time with? Do you have any

idea what an important role Donovan
plays as head of the family foundation?

How many people he impacts, how
significant his every choice.

The right wife will make him even more
effective in the world. But the wrong

woman.

I see no reason to continue this
conversation.

Please go.

I've said what needed to be said.

This is a disaster.

If the press tries to find out who I
am... Then this whole horrible mess with

Grant Markham could be splashed all over
the paper tomorrow.

And I might never be hired as a teacher
again.

No.

If cameras follow Donovan Darcy around,
I have to stay far, far away from him.

That might be hard to do.

The Western Country show is this
weekend.

And Donovan is scheduled to judge the
Terriers.

I feel like there's cameras everywhere
waiting to pounce.

First, we're too far away from the city.

Second, that photo from the other day,
it's old news.

Everyone's on to the next bit of gossip.

There's Felicity.

I have to talk to her.

But it's almost time to...

Felicity, I want to explain.

That photo in the paper of me and
your... Donovan?

It gave the wrong impression.

It's all right.

I know Donovan, and I know he's very
loyal.

I'm sure it was an innocent meeting. It
was.

I wish it hadn't happened. I wish I
never had to be anywhere near Donovan

Scott.

I believe you're number one today.

I am.

I guess I'll, uh, go.

How you can show your face here is
beyond me.

And queen.

Don't let that old dragon get to you.

It's not just her.

I don't belong in this world. The public
attention, the plot, the intrigue.

Number one. It's me.

Here I go.

You act as if I've offended you.

Didn't you see that picture of us in the
paper?

I'd advise you to ignore those gossip
rags.

Well, maybe you can ignore what people
think of you, but that is not a luxury I

can afford.

It's not a luxury. It's a choice.

A choice you can make because you're
wealthy.

What about my money?

You, Elizabeth, are a snob. Do you want
me to tell you what I think you are? May

I see your dog on the downer back,
please?

I have never met a more maddening human
being than Donovan Darcy. You two are

like Elizabeth Taylor and Richard
Burton, arguing so passionately.

Final judging.

Our reserve winner.

What are you doing?

People are whispering and staring.

You making a fuss will only make them
whisper more.

Ha -ha! Just one more win, and Rose will
have enough points to be an official

champion.

The circuit director. Ms. Barrow, I've
been informed of a conflict of interest

in today's decision for Rose and the
Terrier Group. What?

It appears our judge has been intimate
with the handler.

I've informed him that there's been no
intimacy. Not even a little. Look, I'll

allow today's decision to stand under
one condition.

That Miss Scott no longer handles your
dogs when Mr. Darcy's judging terriers.

But he's scheduled to judge the next
three shows.

I'll recuse myself.

I'm afraid that would put us in a fine.

There's no use arguing, Gabrielle.

This is Weston High School all over
again.

I have no problem arguing against a bad
decision.

This is his world.

And he has the right to show me the
door.

And I would rather leave if the truth is
besides the point.

That went well.

You'll have to find yourself another
handler.

I've let you down, and I don't want to
impose on you any longer.

I'm going to pack when I... No, this is
my fault.

I didn't just send you to the dog spa so
that you would run into Donovan. I also

called the paper to tip them off.

I was trying to one -up Violet at her
own game, and it backfired.

So you can't go.

Thank you.

I mean it. I am...

So grateful for everything you've done
for me and all you've taught me.

And I'll use it the next time I show
bliss when I'm back home again.

But you don't have a job there.

I always have a job at my mother's
bridal shop.

Ah, do I know who was answering my
knock?

I wanted to apologize for the snafu at
the dog show last night.

I'd love to blame you, but I can't. Not
really.

Well, I'd like to discuss the situation
if you have time. Well, let's go inside.

I'd rather talk about it someplace else.
I'd rather not be all over the paper

tomorrow. Well, I have an art collector
friend with a room full of paintings,

including an original King Charles owned
by Queen Victoria.

You mean Dash?

Yeah, you know him? Yeah, I... I taught
my class about him. I definitely want to

see that. Give me a minute? Yeah.

I, uh, I realize now that I was too
cavalier about the photo on the paper.

Sorry. I didn't see how it would impact
you.

Gabrielle tells me you plan to go back
to D .C.

Uh, I've spoken with the circuit
director. Persuaded him to reconsider

decision to bar you from my...

Perhaps he should wait.

Find out what he says.

I know how these things work.

The outcome is usually rigged, and I'm
imposing on Gabrielle. Well, then impose

on me. Are you asking me to stay with
you?

No. I am offering you a temporary
position looking after my dogs.

Zara and I have to go out of town for
the next week on family business, and

Lineth is going to come with us.

Of course.

You couldn't go a week without your
butler.

I really ignore that.

The problem is I can't take Figgy with
me. Of course not.

Her puppies are much too young for the
stress of travel.

Well, Gabrielle's agreed to keep an eye
on them. She usually does when I go out

of town.

Then you don't really need me.

Well, Figgy doesn't, but her puppies do.

They're at an age when they need to
become accustomed to people handling

Now, I can't expect Gabrielle to come
over and interact with them for two to

three hours every day, so I'd like to
hire you to do it.

I appreciate the offer, but the last
thing I want is to be indebted to you.

There you go again with that snobbish
pride. Oh, no, please, I would hate for

you to feel indebted to me.

Donovan, you can't blackmail me into
working for you.

Fine.

If I get to eat the cake, I'll...

Look after your puppies.

People say I'm ruthless in my business
dealings.

Can't imagine why.

Those are your parents?

Yeah.

And Zara, too. When she was little.

You all look so happy in this picture.

So, well, normal.

Well, we are eating off gold plates
there.

Those are paper plates.

You keep surprising me.

You mean I surprise your preconceptions
of me? I'm pretty sure I've already

apologized for being too quick to judge.

My cell phone number.

Keys to the house.

In case you get here at a different
time, it's good real.

But I don't know how Felicity might feel
about that.

Why would Felicity care?

I did see her shopping for a wedding
dress.

You think I'm engaged to Felicity?

It doesn't matter to me one way or the
other. I don't really care.

Not that I've thought about it.

So then...

You're in love with her.

Sorry, it's none of my business.

Does love really matter when it comes to
marriage?

Perhaps it's best to marry someone with
whom one is well -suited.

Perhaps only fools wait for passion to
come and kick them in the chest, steal

their wits.

I think you and Felicity are very well
-suited.

And you would be a fool not to marry
her.

Bliss is probably wondering why I
haven't taken her out for a walk yet.

So I should go.

Elizabeth. I hope you have a good trip.

There's that sigh again.

You've been very moony the last few
days.

I'm just bored with this book.

I think I'll go check on the puppies.

Lizzie, there you are.

I need to ask you a big favor.

Well, then you'll have to come with me.
I'm going across the street.

I'm coming too!

Henry invited me to this charity event
on Saturday. It's a tennis tournament

slash ball.

I am so nervous I can barely stand it.
Well, that wouldn't be my idea of a good

time. Well, that's too bad because I was
just about to ask you to come with me.

Well, don't ask me. I am being paid to
play with puppies.

Oh, come on. It's just one night.

We'll leave that afternoon and we'll
come back the next morning.

You said Donovan only needed you to
handle the puppies a few hours a day.

and you'll be back in plenty of time for
that.

Jenna, come on. You don't want me as a
third wheel on your romantic date.

Wouldn't be like that. This place is
supposedly as big as a hotel.

Henry already said it was fine. Quote,
the more the merrier.

Pretty please?

Thank you.

I hope you two brought something to wear
to the ball tonight.

Our mother owns a bridal shop. We have
dresses for every occasion.

Are you sure we're ready for this
occasion?

Thank you.

Uh, Henry, are you allowed to just go
right in?

I spend more time here as a teenager
than I did in my own house.

You can drop it here.

I feel like we just walked into a movie.

Or a museum.

Ah, there he is. He's on the patio with
Zara.

I'll go let him know we're here.

Did he just say Zara?

Jenna, are we at Donovan Darcy's estate?

I don't know. I don't remember Henry
saying that.

Miss Scott.

Do you have any better occupation other
than showing up where you're not wanted?

My sister has a very useful occupation.

She's a teacher.

She taught at the most prestigious
school in Washington, D .C. Really?

And what school might that be?

Weston High School.

My turn?

Yep.

Well?

Only took us two hours to get here.

Thought there'd be more traffic.

Missy, I didn't know you were coming.

Nor did I.

Well, I told you I was bringing a couple
of people.

I'm sorry. I didn't know Henry was
bringing us here.

You didn't?

Huh.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have tagged along.

I don't know if we should believe her,
Donna.

Well... I'm glad you're here. I was just
about to checkmate my brother if you

want the next game.

I am.

Thank you, Zara. But I can't stay. I
have to go back to New York.

I'll go call a cab.

I don't know why you're leaving. No one
said you have to go.

Did you see how Donovan was looking at
me?

How was I looking at you?

I'll just let you two talk.

You don't have to leave.

Zara wants you to stay.

What do you want?

I also want you to stay.

What will your Aunt Violet say?

You afraid of my aunt?

She's terrifying.

I'll tell you a secret.

She's more afraid of you than you are of
her.

And I like to watch her squirm, so stay
for that if no other reason.

Or don't stay if you'd rather go.

But as far as Zara and I are concerned,
you're welcome here.

Well, I did bring a fabulous dress for
tonight, so... Good.

I'm glad.

Oh, I have a tennis match to win.

What did I just do?

Your brother certainly likes to play to
win, doesn't he?

Well, his opponents, they pledge double
if he wins.

Here is more money for the foundation
that way.

Thank you.

He's kind of a hunk, isn't he?

I think I'll keep my opinion of your
brother to myself.

Well, that's different.

Most women, they fawn all over him.

Like, full of pity.

Donovan, you have such patrician
features.

Dare I say, you would father the most
attractive children the world has ever

seen.

Oh, here it comes. Donovan's hot to win.

always hand him the trophy but you know
what i think that you should hand him

the trophy today so i'm gonna go sorry
come back here what are you doing

i'm

supposed to give you this
congratulations on the win

i'll look forward to seeing that
fabulous dress of yours tonight

Hey, Felicity.

I saw that touching scene of the two of
you on the tennis courts.

You must think he's your knight in
shining armor.

You're not here by accident. You're
after Donovan.

I'm not interested in Donovan.

Then why are you trying so hard to get
his attention?

Even stooping so low as to use poor
Zara?

I'm the one who's put the time in with
that spoiled girl, not you.

And I actually defended you to Zara.

Oh, stop.

You have no respect for who I am to the
Darcy family.

Not anymore, I don't.

You deserve everything that's coming to
you.

What's that supposed to mean?

You'll see.

Oh, my gosh. I love this place.

What is it what happened?

Lizzie

I feel like everyone is looking at me
like I don't belong here.

I can't tell who's real or fake, who's
friend or foe. This is a charity party,

and they're all friends.

Except for Felicity, of course.

I don't know if I should tell Donovan
what she said about Zara. Of course you

should. Just not tonight.

This is such a gorgeous party.

Let's just enjoy it for one night, okay?

There's Henry. He wants to introduce me
to some of his friends.

I hope they like me.

You need a sparkling glass in your hand.

So it shows how nervous I am?

Don't know why you'd be nervous.

You look... You take my breath away.

You said it like you meant it.

I meant it.

And it's irritating to me how attractive
I find you.

Makes it difficult to think straight
around you.

I don't like it.

Well, it is annoying when the person you
can't stand is so...

Almost charming.

We do have a dilemma.

And I think there's only one way to
address it.

What's that?

Dance.

Shall we?

Well, you do everything.

Tennis champion and now divine dancer.

Takes two to dance.

I feel like I'm living someone else's
charmed life.

May I cut

in?

Grant Markham?

Aren't you happy to see me?

This is my dance, and I intend to finish
it.

Be sure to mind your wallet with her.

She once tried to pick mine.

No.

What was that about? You know him?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

And I have to go.

Think you can run away from me? Do not
touch me.

You can't hide from this.

You tried to mess with my son and his
future. I told you there'd be a price to

pay. Now I'm cutting in. The lady asked
you to leave her alone.

Don't forget his manners, Donnie.

Yeah, I think it's time for him to go.

Excuse me.

Could you please see this gentleman to
his car? He's bothering our host.

You can't treat me like this. I think we
just did.

You can't treat me like this. Get home
safe.

I don't belong here.

Your aunt and Felicity invited Markham
because they want me gone.

Anyone who enjoys the game of will he or
won't he propose to Felicity Robson has

their answer.

He won't.

How could you humiliate me like this,
Donovan?

How?

I considered you a friend, Felicity, but
a friend wouldn't bring a snake into my

house like Mrs. Name.

Grant Markham.

A friend wouldn't bring a snake like
Grant Markham into my house, and I see

reason for you to be here any longer.

Are you either, Aunt Violet? How dare
you?

Show some respect.

You will get my respect the moment you
start respecting me.

Now, where were we?

Thank you for a lovely evening.

It's time for me to say goodnight.

You don't have to keep checking up on
me. Just go have fun.

I've had so much fun. And I danced and
danced.

And so many people were asking me about
you.

And whether or not you're Don's new
girlfriend.

I'm not his girlfriend.

That kiss said otherwise.

That kiss didn't mean anything.

Oh, come on.

We all saw the sparks flying.

You can't tell me that you didn't feel
something.

All I feel now is...

Hungry. Oh, you poor thing, you didn't
eat.

I'll go make you a plate, okay? I'll be
right back.

Donnie, I gotta tell you, that kiss that
you laid on Jenna's sister, that was

the highlight of the night.

Kiss with two... Kiss with the shut
-down violet up.

The kiss was because you liked the girl.
Why would I like... Why would I like

all those discussions?

She's overproud. Beautiful. And crass.

Intelligent. Kills it in a ball gown.
Brings you trophies. All those kinds of

things. You are absolutely fascinated by
her. That's a fact.

We have to go.

We have to leave. Come on. What
happened? Come on.

What happened?

Jenna?

What's going on?

You're calling a cab at this hour? We're
going back to New York. We're not

sticking around so you can use my
sister. Please wait.

Please wait.

Please let me explain. Don't try to
pretend Jenna misunderstood you.

Okay. I said some unflattering things.

But if she had just waited two minutes
longer, she would have heard me tell

Henry that I was just pretending when I
said I didn't feel anything for you when

I kissed you, because I did.

I have spent my whole life guarding
myself against the hidden agendas of

women, my aunt included.

But you made it past my defenses, and
you made it into my heart.

And I've decided that we belong
together.

You've decided?

You don't get to decide who I belong
with. And I know that. And I know that

bubbling this...

Apology, and it's hard to do with you
standing here with your bags in your

I've only just realized that all of my
obsessive thinking of you these past few

weeks is because I've fallen in love
with you.

An unfortunate fact for you, I think.
But only because you're so obstinate.

And clearly I enjoy an obstinate woman.

Please just leave me alone.

I'm curious.

What did he say?

He had the nerve to tell me that he's in
love with me.

I really wish you wouldn't go.

Don't think we aren't grateful. We are
so, so grateful.

But it's time.

That's not true.

Darcy wouldn't want you to go.

Look, he sent you a letter.

Came by messenger this morning.

I don't want it.

I'll make sure she reads it.

Then I'm going to read it.

I don't want to know what it says. I
won't tell you.

Okay. Tell me what it says.

He thanks you for never being anything
other than honest with him.

He says that you're the first woman he's
ever met that doesn't treat him

differently because of his money.

Don't even seem to care about his money.

He likes that you're willing to
challenge him at every turn.

Talks about how he sees so many things
differently because of you.

He says that love changes people.

Just like he really loves you.

I think you should stay.

He once told me that he's known for
being ruthless in business.

That letter is just from a wealthy man
who's found something he can't have

and... Now he wants it.

I don't want to stay here.

I want to go home.

Okay.

No more avoiding me, Elizabeth Ann.

I talked to Gabrielle, and she said you
had some kind of a romantic disaster.

It wasn't romantic, and there was no
disaster.

Oh? Well, it's... certainly look like
romance from this picture I saw online.

What? And I looked him up. His name is
Donovan Darcy.

He's handsome.

He's rich.

He's famous.

He's also arrogant and entitled. Except
when he's not.

You're not being helpful.

Well, did you know this says that he
gives away all sorts of money to fund

kinds of schools and health clinics in
poor areas?

Like... This one says that he gives away
more money to charity than anyone else

in all of New York.

Let me see those.

Isn't that a man who changes lives?

It's Weston High School.

And along with your reinstatement, the
board has also voted to fast -track the

raise you'd normally get after five
years.

That's almost a 20 % increase in your
salary.

Wow.

That's surprising. What happened?

This is off the record.

But we've received some information
about Grant Markham, information that

his assertions against you in a
different light.

Mrs. Markham has also apparently been
privy to this information.

She's resigned from the board and
withdrawn her son from this school.

And this information, would it have come
from Donovan Darcy?

I'm not at liberty to say.

Well, then I won't say what I think of
the board's priorities and how this

school is run. Elizabeth. So I'll just
leave it at thank you, but no thank you.

reunion. He literally swept her off her
feet. He picked her up and he twirled

her in his arms.

What are you talking about?

Isn't it amazing?

Henry said that he's rented a place near
here so he can come down on the

weekends to be close to me.

Should have rented a place sooner.

Donnie actually said as much. He said
that if I didn't follow my heart, he

beat the daylights out of me.

Donovan said that?

Right before he fell off the face of the
earth.

What do you mean?

He's gone missing.

He and Zara both, actually.

That is, no one knows where they've
gone.

I'm happy that the two of you are going
to be together.

Thank you.

Is it too soon to look at wedding
dresses?

Mom!

Let's go humor her.

Hi,

Donovan.

It's me.

Elizabeth, it's very important that I
talk to you, apologize to you,

say how sorry I am for the way that I
left.

It was wrong of me to do that.

I read your letter.

I read it over and over again, and...

It's beautiful.

And I'm in love with you too.

I left Donovan another message.

Told him I moved back.

That I'll be looking for a teaching job
here.

And that I'll be staying with you in the
meantime.

Told him I'm pretty much waiting on his
doorstep for him to come back.

He didn't say anything to you about
where he might be going?

No.

I think he broke his heart.

I broke my own heart, too.

If only he'd come home.

On the bright side, there's a dog show
this weekend.

You could enter bliss.

No, Donovan's not on the schedule as a
judge.

Well, I'll do it anyway.

You look very pretty today, Bliss.

But I don't know if my heart is in it.

Okay, fine. I'll stick it out.

Number one?

Now calling number one.

Hey, are you number one? They're calling
you, and the judge doesn't look too

happy about it.

Always late.

You're here.

Miss Scott, I listened to your messages.

They're very satisfyingly contrite
messages.

Yes.

Contrite.

So contrite.

I was especially satisfied to hear your
confession of love.

Does that mean you still...

Am I still in love with you?

Yes.

Even more than I knew.

And I'm still very firm in my decision

that you and I belong together.

Although...

You are a difficult woman to sweep off
her feet.
