Please identify the accused.
3
00:01:06,377 --> 00:01:08,008
Dr. William Chester Minor...
4
00:01:08,010 --> 00:01:13,144
Captain Surgeon in the US Army,
retired.
5
00:01:13,810 --> 00:01:16,842
Dr. Minor has come to our shores
seeking sanctuary.
6
00:01:16,844 --> 00:01:20,409
In his home country of the
United States, he was pursued...
7
00:01:20,411 --> 00:01:24,010
relentlessly by a man pledged
to torture and kill him.
8
00:01:31,911 --> 00:01:33,141
On that fateful night...
9
00:01:33,143 --> 00:01:36,242
of the 17th of February, the
defendant woke with a start...
10
00:01:36,244 --> 00:01:41,076
he knew right away that he had
been hunted down and found...
11
00:01:41,078 --> 00:01:44,976
that his pursuer, one Declan
Reilly was indeed, in his rooms.
12
00:01:46,310 --> 00:01:51,211
Dr. Minor reached for his
service revolver and gave chase.
13
00:02:05,910 --> 00:02:08,243
Fenian!
14
00:02:10,943 --> 00:02:12,941
In the
streets, he found a man running.
15
00:02:12,943 --> 00:02:15,310
Help! Help!
16
00:02:21,976 --> 00:02:23,743
Help!
17
00:02:47,910 --> 00:02:52,274
Eliza, open the door! Eliza!
18
00:02:52,276 --> 00:02:54,107
Eliza!
19
00:02:54,109 --> 00:02:56,074
In the confusion of night...
20
00:02:56,076 --> 00:02:58,075
he failed to discern the
difference...
21
00:02:58,077 --> 00:03:02,041
between his assailant and the
innocent George Merrett.
22
00:03:02,043 --> 00:03:03,077
Eliza.
23
00:03:11,243 --> 00:03:12,908
Stop there!
24
00:03:12,910 --> 00:03:14,175
This is not the Fenian!
25
00:03:14,177 --> 00:03:15,874
No!
26
00:03:15,876 --> 00:03:17,741
This is not the Fenian?
27
00:03:17,743 --> 00:03:18,874
No!
28
00:03:18,876 --> 00:03:23,143
I'm sorry! Sorry!
29
00:03:24,943 --> 00:03:26,708
No!
30
00:03:37,277 --> 00:03:41,707
My Lord, Dr. Minor shot the
wrong man.
31
00:03:47,009 --> 00:03:51,673
So... he didn't mean it.
32
00:03:51,675 --> 00:03:54,074
My Lord, perhaps the court
should simply release...
33
00:03:54,076 --> 00:03:56,074
the good doctor with an
apology...
34
00:03:56,076 --> 00:03:58,675
for the misunderstanding that
has occurred.
35
00:04:04,842 --> 00:04:07,009
Your Honor!?
36
00:04:11,076 --> 00:04:14,940
Declan... Declan Reilly
is his name!
37
00:04:14,942 --> 00:04:18,807
He has a brand on the left side
of his face, he comes at night!
38
00:04:18,809 --> 00:04:23,673
He comes with others, they haunt
me, they come into my rooms!
39
00:04:23,675 --> 00:04:28,274
I do not believe you, sir.
This court does not believe you.
40
00:04:30,142 --> 00:04:34,240
Quiet, please! Quiet in court!
41
00:04:34,242 --> 00:04:38,040
Quiet, please! Quiet!
42
00:04:38,042 --> 00:04:41,974
Quiet, quiet!
43
00:04:43,975 --> 00:04:47,639
We, the members of her Majesty's
jury...
44
00:04:47,641 --> 00:04:51,106
find Dr. William Chester Minor
not guilty...
45
00:04:51,108 --> 00:04:54,073
of the willful murder
of George Merrett...
46
00:04:55,808 --> 00:04:57,806
Quiet! Quiet!
47
00:04:57,808 --> 00:05:00,240
...on the grounds of insanity.
48
00:05:00,242 --> 00:05:02,140
I am not insane, sir.
49
00:05:02,142 --> 00:05:03,175
Quiet, please!
50
00:05:05,941 --> 00:05:10,140
William Chester Minor, it is
hereby this court's ruling...
51
00:05:10,142 --> 00:05:12,705
that you shall be detained
in safe custody...
52
00:05:12,707 --> 00:05:15,173
at Broadmoor Asylum for the
Criminally Insane...
53
00:05:15,175 --> 00:05:19,175
until Her Majesty's pleasure
be known.
54
00:05:21,874 --> 00:05:23,707
Quiet, please!
55
00:05:34,908 --> 00:05:36,975
Move, move!
56
00:05:44,409 --> 00:05:46,073
Bloody bollocks hell!
57
00:05:47,375 --> 00:05:49,739
Hey! Any more of that
and you're off!
58
00:05:49,741 --> 00:05:51,574
Harold!
59
00:05:56,375 --> 00:05:57,972
I must get back in, father.
60
00:05:57,974 --> 00:05:59,972
In a tick, boy. Take a few
breaths.
61
00:05:59,974 --> 00:06:01,772
Mind the long run down the
flank.
62
00:06:01,774 --> 00:06:03,739
If you see the brute coming,
stay downpitch...
63
00:06:03,741 --> 00:06:05,839
and don't let him pull you in,
all right?
64
00:06:05,841 --> 00:06:07,206
And try for the clean catch.
65
00:06:07,208 --> 00:06:08,906
Yes, sir. The game, sir.
66
00:06:08,908 --> 00:06:12,339
Harold, about your use
of words...
67
00:06:12,341 --> 00:06:13,772
Yes, sir.
68
00:06:13,774 --> 00:06:16,041
- Good. In you go, boy, go on.
- Yes, sir!
69
00:06:25,207 --> 00:06:27,005
I had a word with him.
70
00:06:27,007 --> 00:06:28,139
Yes, I saw.
71
00:06:28,141 --> 00:06:31,906
In the paper, a dreadful story,
a shooting in Lambeth...
72
00:06:31,908 --> 00:06:34,039
by an American, an army
officer...
73
00:06:34,041 --> 00:06:37,238
and that poor woman left behind
with six children.
74
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,705
That I saw.
75
00:06:39,707 --> 00:06:41,838
I don't know what I would do,
James...
76
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:43,308
if you were taken like that.
77
00:06:45,707 --> 00:06:50,074
Yes! That's it, that's it!
78
00:06:52,741 --> 00:06:55,373
Yes! Yes!
79
00:06:55,375 --> 00:06:58,972
Yes, yes! How's that, you
ensanguined mule?
80
00:07:00,774 --> 00:07:03,038
- That's it, you're off!
- What's wrong with ensanguined?
81
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,973
- Get off!
- Harold! Harold!
82
00:07:21,807 --> 00:07:25,272
I wish to state that I possess
a general lexical...
83
00:07:25,274 --> 00:07:27,806
and structural knowledge of the
languages...
84
00:07:27,808 --> 00:07:31,905
and literature of the Aryan
and Syro-Arabic classes.
85
00:07:31,907 --> 00:07:34,338
I have recently submitted my
paper on the declension...
86
00:07:34,340 --> 00:07:37,272
of German verbs to the
Philological Society.
87
00:07:37,274 --> 00:07:39,005
Mr. Murray, I understand that...
88
00:07:39,007 --> 00:07:41,205
you do not possess
a university degree.
89
00:07:41,207 --> 00:07:44,239
No, sir, no degree.
90
00:07:44,241 --> 00:07:46,673
I am an autodidact, self-taught.
91
00:07:47,075 --> 00:07:51,338
I am aware of the word.
Schooling?
92
00:07:51,340 --> 00:07:54,038
Left at 14 to earn a living.
93
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,838
Honestly, Freddie, it's a bit
much.
94
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,973
A bit much, yes.
95
00:08:01,374 --> 00:08:04,238
Of course, we, the august
delegates...
96
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:05,805
of the Oxford University
Press...
97
00:08:05,807 --> 00:08:08,205
have been attempting to make
this dictionary...
98
00:08:08,207 --> 00:08:09,472
for the last 20 years.
99
00:08:09,474 --> 00:08:12,905
And despite the greatest efforts
of a whole army of academics...
100
00:08:12,907 --> 00:08:15,238
myself included, we are
precisely nowhere.
101
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,205
Forgive me that is incorrect.
102
00:08:17,207 --> 00:08:19,704
We are, in fact, going
backwards.
103
00:08:19,706 --> 00:08:22,205
The language is developing
faster than our progress.
104
00:08:22,207 --> 00:08:25,838
This great tongue of ours, which
reaches out across the world...
105
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,038
has drawn its guns, sharpened
its bayonets...
106
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,670
and declared that it will not
be tamed.
107
00:08:30,672 --> 00:08:34,038
And we, with our debates ad
nauseam about the scope...
108
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,838
the mode, the purpose of these
words have all...
109
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,970
but thrown ourselves down
in supplication before it...
110
00:08:39,972 --> 00:08:43,240
bathed in abject defeat.
111
00:08:44,740 --> 00:08:46,807
At this moment, the endeavor
is dead.
112
00:08:49,239 --> 00:08:52,074
Is that too much, Max?
113
00:08:54,207 --> 00:08:56,172
Gentlemen, I'm afraid nothing...
114
00:08:56,174 --> 00:08:58,204
short of a panacea is called
for.
115
00:08:58,206 --> 00:09:01,405
I submit that the extraordinary,
the unconventional...
116
00:09:01,407 --> 00:09:05,639
Mr. Murray is the solution
and our salvation.
117
00:09:07,672 --> 00:09:11,771
Your account, though a bit
dramatic, is true, Freddie.
118
00:09:11,773 --> 00:09:15,338
But we need something more than
impassioned advocacy.
119
00:09:15,340 --> 00:09:19,637
Qualifications come to mind.
Perhaps a Bachelor's Degree.
120
00:09:19,639 --> 00:09:21,005
Qualifications, yes.
121
00:09:21,007 --> 00:09:25,371
Well, I am fluent in Latin and
Greek, of course.
122
00:09:25,373 --> 00:09:27,870
Beyond those, I have an intimate
knowledge...
123
00:09:27,872 --> 00:09:30,937
of the Romance tongues, Italian,
French, Spanish...
124
00:09:30,939 --> 00:09:34,237
Catalan and to a lesser degree
Portugese, Vaudois...
125
00:09:34,239 --> 00:09:36,905
Provencal and other dialects.
126
00:09:36,907 --> 00:09:40,870
In the Teutonic branch, I am
familiar with German, Dutch...
127
00:09:40,872 --> 00:09:41,970
Danish and Flemish.
128
00:09:41,972 --> 00:09:44,870
I have specialized in
Anglo-Saxon and Moeso-Gothic...
129
00:09:44,872 --> 00:09:47,637
and have prepared works
for publication...
130
00:09:47,639 --> 00:09:48,603
in both of these languages.
131
00:09:48,605 --> 00:09:51,770
I also have a useful knowledge
of Russian.
132
00:09:51,772 --> 00:09:55,104
I have sufficient knowledge of
Hebrew and Syriac to read...
133
00:09:55,106 --> 00:09:57,637
at sight the Old Testament and
the Peshito...
134
00:09:57,639 --> 00:10:00,670
to a lesser degree, Aramaic,
Arabic, Coptic...
135
00:10:00,672 --> 00:10:04,237
and Phoenician to the point
where it was left by Genesius.
136
00:10:04,239 --> 00:10:06,703
Forgive me rattling on.
137
00:10:06,705 --> 00:10:09,173
I'm sure you have questions.
138
00:10:12,073 --> 00:10:17,137
Mr. Murray, a word comes
to mind... clever.
139
00:10:17,139 --> 00:10:22,904
Can you define it and tell us
its history?
140
00:10:22,906 --> 00:10:26,937
I'll make a fist of it, on the
hoof, as it were.
141
00:10:26,939 --> 00:10:30,904
Clever: adjective. Meaning -
adroit, nimble, dextrous.
142
00:10:30,906 --> 00:10:33,937
Probably from the Low German,
Klover.
143
00:10:33,939 --> 00:10:36,070
Or perhaps the Middle Dutch,
Klever...
144
00:10:36,072 --> 00:10:42,171
with a "k", meaning sprightly
or smart.
145
00:10:42,173 --> 00:10:48,138
Mr. Murray is also a master
of the Scottish clog dance.
146
00:10:49,805 --> 00:10:52,273
Forgive me for keeping
it from you...
147
00:10:52,871 --> 00:10:55,271
I scarcely believed in the
chance myself.
148
00:10:55,273 --> 00:10:59,605
It's all mine, Ada, the entire
language.
149
00:11:03,638 --> 00:11:05,769
I've never known how to resist
it, your exuberance...
150
00:11:05,771 --> 00:11:09,037
but it's so sudden.
151
00:11:09,039 --> 00:11:11,136
And to abandon all this, the
school, the constancy.
152
00:11:11,138 --> 00:11:15,237
Is it truly what you wish
for all of us?
153
00:11:15,239 --> 00:11:18,903
Ada, I'm an untutored linen
draper's boy from Teviotdale...
154
00:11:18,905 --> 00:11:22,070
now, suddenly, with a real crack
at it.
155
00:11:22,072 --> 00:11:23,903
My entire life has been in
preparation for this.
156
00:11:25,705 --> 00:11:27,702
The call has finally come.
157
00:11:27,704 --> 00:11:30,304
Whatever I've done,
I've done with you.
158
00:11:30,306 --> 00:11:33,104
I've never been able to
without you.
159
00:11:33,106 --> 00:11:35,370
Once again, lend yourself to me?
160
00:11:35,372 --> 00:11:39,138
If I am to fashion a book,
I'll need a spine.
161
00:11:41,038 --> 00:11:42,803
Father!
162
00:11:42,805 --> 00:11:44,336
Elsie, children.
163
00:11:44,338 --> 00:11:48,205
Are we going somewhere?
164
00:11:49,705 --> 00:11:51,903
To Oxford, your father
is the editor...
165
00:11:51,905 --> 00:11:54,336
of the New English Dictionary
on Historical Principles.
166
00:11:54,338 --> 00:11:55,336
What is that?
167
00:11:55,338 --> 00:11:58,036
It's a very big book with a lot
of words in it.
168
00:11:58,038 --> 00:11:59,636
All the words of the English
language.
169
00:11:59,638 --> 00:12:01,370
Like Doctor Johnson's
Dictionary?
170
00:12:01,372 --> 00:12:06,172
Yes, but his book comprised of
only a mere handful of words.
171
00:12:06,671 --> 00:12:12,869
I am charged with identifying
and defining every last word!
172
00:12:12,871 --> 00:12:14,170
Will "happy" be in there,
Father?
173
00:12:14,172 --> 00:12:15,936
Aye, "happy" will be there,
Elsie.
174
00:12:15,938 --> 00:12:20,836
My dictionary will need as many
volumes as these...
175
00:12:20,838 --> 00:12:23,002
to house the entire language.
176
00:12:23,004 --> 00:12:24,170
Will "sad"?
177
00:12:24,172 --> 00:12:25,735
"Sad" will be there, yes, aye.
178
00:12:25,737 --> 00:12:27,336
What about "big", will "big"
be in there?
179
00:12:27,338 --> 00:12:28,303
Yeah, aye, and "small" too.
180
00:12:28,305 --> 00:12:30,769
There isn't a word you can
think of that...
181
00:12:30,771 --> 00:12:32,235
will not be in this very
big book.
182
00:12:32,237 --> 00:12:33,903
- Father?
- Yes, Oswyn.
183
00:12:33,905 --> 00:12:36,103
Will "Oswyn" be in there?
184
00:12:36,105 --> 00:12:38,005
Uh... probably...
185
00:12:42,271 --> 00:12:46,237
Never play with books,
all right? That's wrong.
186
00:12:58,904 --> 00:13:04,835
Wednesday, April
17, 1872. Inmate number 742.
187
00:13:04,837 --> 00:13:06,836
742, admittance.
188
00:13:06,838 --> 00:13:08,903
Minor, William Chester...
189
00:13:08,905 --> 00:13:12,269
American, 48 years old...
190
00:13:12,271 --> 00:13:17,635
surgeon, a captain in the
United States Army.
191
00:13:17,637 --> 00:13:22,337
No known religion, classified
a danger to others.
192
00:13:24,337 --> 00:13:26,137
Assigned to Block Two.
193
00:13:37,870 --> 00:13:42,902
The prisoner is in a rage,
spitting dozens of times...
194
00:13:42,904 --> 00:13:47,335
by his own account trying not
to swallow poison-coated...
195
00:13:47,337 --> 00:13:53,238
cold, iron bars that have been
pressed against his teeth.
196
00:14:03,037 --> 00:14:04,670
In you go.
197
00:14:15,870 --> 00:14:18,201
March 17th...
198
00:14:18,203 --> 00:14:21,737
three days now the prisoner
has gone without sleep.
199
00:14:32,070 --> 00:14:35,834
Constantly leaping from his bed
to search...
200
00:14:35,836 --> 00:14:38,069
underneath it in sheer terror.
201
00:14:38,071 --> 00:14:43,770
Repeatedly claiming to look for
those coming for him at night.
202
00:14:48,669 --> 00:14:52,202
Doctor Richard Brayn, alienist
superintendent...
203
00:14:52,204 --> 00:14:56,603
Broadmoor Asylum.
204
00:15:03,004 --> 00:15:05,368
There it was, staring me
in the face...
205
00:15:05,370 --> 00:15:08,901
the Home Secretary wouldn't be
bamboozled into accepting.
206
00:15:08,903 --> 00:15:09,834
Can you believe it?
207
00:15:09,836 --> 00:15:12,402
Like Orthrus, a two-headed dog
of a line.
208
00:15:12,404 --> 00:15:16,235
Written... in the Athenaeum...
in a single sentence!
209
00:15:16,237 --> 00:15:19,835
Your book, Mr. Murray, will need
to establish strict rules...
210
00:15:19,837 --> 00:15:21,735
banning such offenses.
211
00:15:21,737 --> 00:15:23,734
Beyond which it should fix all
spellings...
212
00:15:23,736 --> 00:15:26,169
lay down proper
pronunciations...
213
00:15:26,171 --> 00:15:28,667
and firm up correctness
of speech.
214
00:15:28,669 --> 00:15:29,868
We've been here before, Max.
215
00:15:29,870 --> 00:15:32,668
What of all the bamboozles, the
wouldn'ts, the shouldn'ts...
216
00:15:32,670 --> 00:15:34,901
and the couldn'ts to come
in the future?
217
00:15:34,903 --> 00:15:37,234
The tongue is at its purest
peak.
218
00:15:37,236 --> 00:15:41,168
Sufficiently refined that it can
henceforward only deteriorate.
219
00:15:41,170 --> 00:15:43,967
It is up to us to fix it once
and for all.
220
00:15:43,969 --> 00:15:46,967
Alterations to it can then be
permitted or not.
221
00:15:46,969 --> 00:15:48,967
And who would you have do the
permitting?
222
00:15:48,969 --> 00:15:52,334
You, Max? Me? No.
223
00:15:52,336 --> 00:15:55,667
All words are valid in the
language.
224
00:15:55,669 --> 00:15:58,234
Ancient or new, obsolete or
robust...
225
00:15:58,236 --> 00:15:59,368
foreign-born or home-grown.
226
00:15:59,370 --> 00:16:03,168
The book must inventory every
word, every nuance...
227
00:16:03,170 --> 00:16:06,734
every twist of etymology and
every possible illustrated...
228
00:16:06,736 --> 00:16:08,866
citation from every English
author.
229
00:16:08,868 --> 00:16:11,867
All of it or nothing at all.
230
00:16:11,869 --> 00:16:13,667
That would mean reading
everything.
231
00:16:13,669 --> 00:16:15,967
Quoting everything that showed
anything to do...
232
00:16:15,969 --> 00:16:18,401
with the history of the words
that are to be cited.
233
00:16:18,403 --> 00:16:21,201
The task is gigantic,
monumental.
234
00:16:21,203 --> 00:16:22,602
And impossible.
235
00:16:24,170 --> 00:16:26,634
There is a way.
236
00:16:26,636 --> 00:16:28,801
A task that might take one man
a hundred lifetimes...
237
00:16:28,803 --> 00:16:31,301
could take a hundred men
just one.
238
00:16:31,303 --> 00:16:34,901
Volunteers. We have tried it
before, James, and failed.
239
00:16:34,903 --> 00:16:38,301
I'm afraid there aren't enough
academics in the land.
240
00:16:38,303 --> 00:16:40,068
How many did you enlist?
241
00:16:40,070 --> 00:16:41,401
Eighty, perhaps ninety.
242
00:16:41,403 --> 00:16:43,767
With a thousand, you could
accomplish it...
243
00:16:43,769 --> 00:16:45,234
in just a few years.
244
00:16:45,236 --> 00:16:48,766
Where do you propose finding
a thousand men?
245
00:16:48,768 --> 00:16:51,734
Everywhere English is celebrated
and spoken.
246
00:16:51,736 --> 00:16:55,634
In every book shop, school,
workplace or home.
247
00:16:55,636 --> 00:16:58,234
Do you mean ordinary people,
amateurs?
248
00:16:58,236 --> 00:17:00,934
English speaking ones, aye.
249
00:17:00,936 --> 00:17:02,201
We will ask them to read...
250
00:17:02,203 --> 00:17:06,267
in search of the words that we
want, and get them to write...
251
00:17:06,269 --> 00:17:11,334
the word on a slip of paper,
along with a quotation...
252
00:17:11,336 --> 00:17:15,201
that they have found
illustrating the very word.
253
00:17:15,203 --> 00:17:17,734
And then? Post the slip tass.
254
00:17:17,736 --> 00:17:20,933
An entire army covering the
breadth of the Empire...
255
00:17:20,935 --> 00:17:23,067
and beyond, drawing a sweep
net...
256
00:17:23,069 --> 00:17:25,168
over the whole of English
literature...
257
00:17:25,170 --> 00:17:27,733
listing the entirety of their
own language.
258
00:17:27,735 --> 00:17:29,300
A dictionary by democracy.
259
00:17:29,302 --> 00:17:32,766
Still edited by us, learned men.
260
00:17:32,768 --> 00:17:35,067
And with this system,
Mr. Murray...
261
00:17:35,069 --> 00:17:38,699
how long do you estimate
to finishing your task?
262
00:17:38,701 --> 00:17:40,866
Five years, seven at most.
263
00:17:40,868 --> 00:17:43,734
All words... and their complete
histories?
264
00:17:43,736 --> 00:17:46,033
Every last one.
265
00:17:46,035 --> 00:17:49,699
Dear England...
266
00:17:49,701 --> 00:17:52,666
We are about to embark on the
greatest adventure...
267
00:17:52,668 --> 00:17:54,200
our language has ever known.
268
00:17:54,202 --> 00:17:56,300
Let us begin at aardvark...
269
00:17:56,302 --> 00:17:59,200
and never stop 'til we reach
Zymurgy.
270
00:17:59,202 --> 00:18:00,400
Zymurgy?
271
00:18:00,402 --> 00:18:03,766
I would wager that that is the
last word in the language.
272
00:18:03,768 --> 00:18:05,333
Surely there is nothing
after Z-Y.
273
00:18:05,335 --> 00:18:06,434
Meaning?
274
00:18:06,436 --> 00:18:09,568
You'll be able to look it up
in a few short years.
275
00:18:13,002 --> 00:18:15,232
There's a cloying
eagerness to him.
276
00:18:15,234 --> 00:18:16,333
Yes.
277
00:18:16,335 --> 00:18:17,434
And that grating Scottish
lilt...
278
00:18:17,436 --> 00:18:20,267
why do you suppose he doesn't
try to conceal it...
279
00:18:20,269 --> 00:18:21,933
for the sake of our eardrums.
280
00:18:21,935 --> 00:18:27,699
His ideas are quite radical,
just what we need.
281
00:18:27,701 --> 00:18:28,733
You don't think he's a
follower...
282
00:18:28,735 --> 00:18:31,233
of that awful German-born
pamphleteer, do you?
283
00:18:31,235 --> 00:18:33,698
No, no, no, my dear.
284
00:18:33,700 --> 00:18:38,100
This man is positively baying to
be part of this little world...
285
00:18:38,102 --> 00:18:42,701
of ours, already quite seduced,
I would say.
286
00:19:15,802 --> 00:19:17,967
I'm sorry, Ada.
287
00:19:20,967 --> 00:19:23,133
What for?
288
00:19:23,135 --> 00:19:25,832
For this disruption,
for breaking up the home...
289
00:19:25,834 --> 00:19:27,099
for dragging you here.
290
00:19:27,101 --> 00:19:30,166
No doubts, James, no jitters.
291
00:19:30,168 --> 00:19:32,232
I need this promise from you.
292
00:19:32,234 --> 00:19:34,166
Now that it's started,
let's see it through...
293
00:19:34,168 --> 00:19:36,867
steadfast and resolved.
294
00:19:48,934 --> 00:19:51,765
An appeal to
the English-reading public...
295
00:19:51,767 --> 00:19:54,899
of Great Britain, America
and the British colonies...
296
00:19:54,901 --> 00:19:59,066
to read books and make extracts
for a new dictionary...
297
00:19:59,068 --> 00:20:01,166
worthy of the English language.
298
00:20:01,168 --> 00:20:04,999
We live today knowing the
origins of the Earth...
299
00:20:05,001 --> 00:20:07,632
of man and all the animals.
300
00:20:07,634 --> 00:20:11,066
We know how hot boiling water
is, how long a yard.
301
00:20:11,068 --> 00:20:14,999
Our ships' masters know the
precise measurements...
302
00:20:15,001 --> 00:20:16,732
of latitude and longitude.
303
00:20:16,734 --> 00:20:20,332
Yet we have neither chart nor
compass to guide us...
304
00:20:20,334 --> 00:20:22,765
through the wide sea of words.
305
00:20:22,767 --> 00:20:25,365
The time has come to accord
this great language of ours...
306
00:20:25,367 --> 00:20:28,998
the same dignity and respect as
the other standards...
307
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,099
defined by science. Fly your
words to Oxford.
308
00:20:33,101 --> 00:20:37,099
Let us be connected, all of us
in this great endeavour...
309
00:20:37,101 --> 00:20:40,031
through the marvellous maze
of our inter-netted post.
310
00:20:40,033 --> 00:20:41,798
What are you doing, Father?
311
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,366
Mr. Bradley and I are putting
a big hole in the ground.
312
00:20:44,368 --> 00:20:46,398
- But what for?
- For a scriptorium.
313
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,198
That's a room like in medieval
monasteries...
314
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,998
where monastic scribes used
to copy manuscripts.
315
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,366
Look, look at that, look what
I found! Treasure!
316
00:20:55,368 --> 00:20:57,831
Will you clean that for me?
317
00:20:57,833 --> 00:20:59,199
Yes, Father.
318
00:20:59,201 --> 00:21:00,801
Aye.
319
00:21:11,201 --> 00:21:12,865
It is a long run...
320
00:21:12,867 --> 00:21:14,934
but we can bear the language
aloft.
321
00:21:16,267 --> 00:21:17,331
Mr. Bradley.
322
00:21:17,333 --> 00:21:19,864
With you, our volunteers...
323
00:21:19,866 --> 00:21:21,098
as rungs in the ladder...
324
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:23,733
we may elevate English even
unto the gates of heaven.
325
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,131
- Come on.
- Get off me!
326
00:21:43,133 --> 00:21:45,000
Easy.
327
00:22:03,100 --> 00:22:05,665
Get him off of me! Who did
that to me?
328
00:22:08,966 --> 00:22:11,365
Stand clear! Get out of the way!
329
00:22:11,367 --> 00:22:13,033
Go on, take me!
330
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:27,165
Get out of the way, get back!
Get back, now, now, move, move!
331
00:22:34,900 --> 00:22:36,364
Look at me, look at me!
332
00:22:36,366 --> 00:22:38,398
Son, son, listen to me,
listen to me.
333
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,398
We're gonna lift the gate
just a bit...
334
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,265
let's see if you can pull
your leg through.
335
00:22:42,267 --> 00:22:43,696
I-I don't know, sir.
336
00:22:43,698 --> 00:22:45,031
We've gotta do it, son,
we gotta do it.
337
00:22:45,033 --> 00:22:46,931
Will you let us try?
Hey, hey?
338
00:22:46,933 --> 00:22:48,197
Good boy, good boy...
339
00:22:48,199 --> 00:22:51,066
after three, one, two...
340
00:23:03,032 --> 00:23:07,763
Out of my way! Out of my way!
341
00:23:07,765 --> 00:23:11,132
How far is the nearest
blacksmith?
342
00:23:14,132 --> 00:23:15,731
Crowthorne.
343
00:23:15,733 --> 00:23:19,097
The nearest surgeon?
344
00:23:19,099 --> 00:23:22,100
Crowthorne Village, it's half
an hour, there and back.
345
00:23:35,399 --> 00:23:40,763
I want a sharp knife and a saw.
346
00:23:40,765 --> 00:23:42,364
Get it up!
347
00:23:42,366 --> 00:23:44,199
Agh!
348
00:23:45,899 --> 00:23:50,930
In a half hour's time, this man
will have bled to death.
349
00:23:50,932 --> 00:23:52,897
- Coleman.
- Yes, sir.
350
00:23:52,899 --> 00:23:56,732
Get a sharp knife and a saw...
quickly!
351
00:24:11,932 --> 00:24:15,695
Now you listen to me, doctor,
I know who you are...
352
00:24:15,697 --> 00:24:16,863
and how you got in here...
353
00:24:16,865 --> 00:24:19,197
and believe me when I say
that none of your wealth...
354
00:24:19,199 --> 00:24:21,665
will do you any good if you
try anything.
355
00:24:52,898 --> 00:24:55,199
Your saw.
356
00:25:02,898 --> 00:25:05,364
You wrap the wound in boiled
rags.
357
00:25:05,366 --> 00:25:09,329
Keep the belt tight and get him
to a surgeon.
358
00:25:09,331 --> 00:25:12,029
Your ligation held,
hemorrhaging was low...
359
00:25:12,031 --> 00:25:14,964
his condition is delicate,
but he is alive.
360
00:25:15,664 --> 00:25:18,063
We are all extremely grateful
to you, Dr. Minor.
361
00:25:18,065 --> 00:25:20,064
Was the wound swabbed, dressed
in phenol?
362
00:25:20,066 --> 00:25:23,029
Luckily, our local surgeon is
well versed...
363
00:25:23,031 --> 00:25:25,829
in Lister's latest antisepsis
and asepsis methods...
364
00:25:25,831 --> 00:25:27,198
as I see are you.
365
00:25:32,864 --> 00:25:34,930
Rush's Tranquilizer.
366
00:25:34,932 --> 00:25:37,796
Dr. Rush, he was an American
Army surgeon for a time...
367
00:25:37,798 --> 00:25:39,029
as well, I believe.
368
00:25:39,031 --> 00:25:41,296
Dr. Rush believed that if the
patient could be rendered...
369
00:25:41,298 --> 00:25:43,962
entirely immobile during the
convulsions of mania...
370
00:25:43,964 --> 00:25:46,729
then madness itself would be
countered.
371
00:25:46,731 --> 00:25:48,298
Barbaric in its simplicity.
372
00:25:50,331 --> 00:25:53,163
It's a relic, really, from the
dark days of my profession...
373
00:25:53,165 --> 00:25:57,929
but it still has its uses when
combined with modern techniques.
374
00:25:57,931 --> 00:26:00,163
You think I'm insane.
375
00:26:00,165 --> 00:26:03,396
Are we not all, to some extent?
376
00:26:03,398 --> 00:26:08,662
You do experience yourself as
being under threat, do you not?
377
00:26:08,664 --> 00:26:13,929
A man... is coming for me.
378
00:26:13,931 --> 00:26:17,129
From my confinement, I will not
see him come.
379
00:26:17,131 --> 00:26:22,263
So if you will permit me,
I would ask your vigilance.
380
00:26:22,265 --> 00:26:26,131
And that you have your men
alert me.
381
00:26:27,763 --> 00:26:30,096
He is easily identifiable.
382
00:26:30,098 --> 00:26:36,895
He has a brand mark on the left
side of his face.
383
00:26:36,897 --> 00:26:40,229
Dr. Minor, rest assured we will
do everything...
384
00:26:40,231 --> 00:26:43,228
in our power to ensure your
safety.
385
00:26:43,230 --> 00:26:47,062
Is there anything else I can
help you with?
386
00:26:47,064 --> 00:26:50,828
I have a pension from the United
States Army.
387
00:26:50,830 --> 00:26:54,063
I wish that the greater portion
of it...
388
00:26:54,065 --> 00:26:58,128
be given to Mrs. Merrett
in support of her children.
389
00:26:58,130 --> 00:27:00,928
Well, I'm sure that can be
arranged.
390
00:27:00,930 --> 00:27:05,063
Sir? I'd like to take care
of that personally.
391
00:27:05,065 --> 00:27:07,962
There you are, Dr. Minor.
392
00:27:07,964 --> 00:27:09,862
You have our very best man
on the case.
393
00:27:09,864 --> 00:27:11,697
Thank you, Mr. Muncie.
394
00:27:33,630 --> 00:27:35,830
There are children
sleeping here.
395
00:27:37,663 --> 00:27:39,795
Only a letter to deliver, ma'am.
396
00:27:39,797 --> 00:27:41,961
Bit late for the post,
ain't it?
397
00:27:41,963 --> 00:27:43,262
You lot are terrible liars.
398
00:27:43,264 --> 00:27:46,895
I'm not from the papers, or the
police, I'm not.
399
00:27:46,897 --> 00:27:48,661
Not here to bother you at all.
400
00:27:48,663 --> 00:27:52,162
I needed to make sure you got
it right personal.
401
00:27:52,164 --> 00:27:54,630
I'll just slide it under the
door.
402
00:27:57,763 --> 00:28:00,961
I'm not from the papers.
403
00:28:00,963 --> 00:28:02,195
Who are you, then?
404
00:28:02,197 --> 00:28:06,897
I'm Muncie, ma'am, I'm hoping
to help.
405
00:28:10,097 --> 00:28:11,661
Is this from you?
406
00:28:11,663 --> 00:28:15,095
No, ma'am, the letter will
explain.
407
00:28:15,097 --> 00:28:17,064
Who's it from?
408
00:28:35,164 --> 00:28:37,228
She wouldn't consider it.
409
00:28:37,230 --> 00:28:40,030
Thank you, Mr. Muncie.
410
00:28:50,330 --> 00:28:52,361
Look again, we must have it.
411
00:28:52,363 --> 00:28:54,394
I have looked and we do not...
412
00:28:54,396 --> 00:28:57,294
I have quotes for it in the
14th, the 15th...
413
00:28:57,296 --> 00:29:01,027
the 16th and the 19th, but not
in the 17th and 18th centuries.
414
00:29:01,029 --> 00:29:02,128
How is that possible?
415
00:29:02,130 --> 00:29:04,627
How can Ruskin write "The
sculpture is approved...
416
00:29:04,629 --> 00:29:06,828
"and set off by the color"
in 1849?
417
00:29:06,830 --> 00:29:10,760
How can I, now use it everyday,
if you are telling me...
418
00:29:10,762 --> 00:29:12,328
that it vanished in the 17th
Century.
419
00:29:12,330 --> 00:29:13,994
Where did it go for 200 years?
420
00:29:13,996 --> 00:29:16,361
I am not saying that it
vanished, sir.
421
00:29:16,363 --> 00:29:19,627
I am simply saying that we do
not have proof.
422
00:29:19,629 --> 00:29:21,161
Look again, Charles.
423
00:29:21,163 --> 00:29:23,094
And where exactly would you like
me to look, sir...
424
00:29:23,096 --> 00:29:27,262
in the birthday cards, perhaps
or the medicinal instructions...
425
00:29:27,264 --> 00:29:28,727
or the How-to manuals...
426
00:29:28,729 --> 00:29:31,061
or perhaps the Guy Fawkes
day messages?
427
00:29:31,063 --> 00:29:33,827
And we're only just dealing
with "A" here.
428
00:29:33,829 --> 00:29:37,327
What of B, C, D, E, F,
G, H, I, J, K?
429
00:29:37,329 --> 00:29:39,094
It's bloody hopeless, sir!
430
00:29:39,096 --> 00:29:44,161
Mr. Hall! Please try to maintain
a semblance of decorum.
431
00:29:44,163 --> 00:29:47,227
Henry, what exactly is the
problem here?
432
00:29:47,229 --> 00:29:50,994
It's "Approve", sir. There is a
missing link.
433
00:29:50,996 --> 00:29:52,727
To say nothing of "Art".
434
00:29:52,729 --> 00:29:56,361
We're missing "Approve" in the
17th and 18th centuries.
435
00:29:56,363 --> 00:29:57,693
We can't find a single trace
of it.
436
00:29:57,695 --> 00:29:59,994
Look at Paradise Lost.
437
00:29:59,996 --> 00:30:01,693
The language took a crucial turn
with Milton.
438
00:30:01,695 --> 00:30:03,660
He was somewhat of a purist...
439
00:30:03,662 --> 00:30:06,660
re-affirming the meaning of his
English.
440
00:30:06,662 --> 00:30:07,993
The key would be in there.
Try that.
441
00:30:07,995 --> 00:30:10,627
Perhaps we can skip the 17th
century, sir.
442
00:30:10,629 --> 00:30:14,261
We have its birth in 1380 with
John Wyclif.
443
00:30:14,263 --> 00:30:17,061
"Christ confirmed his law and
with his death approved it."
444
00:30:17,063 --> 00:30:18,993
And we have Ruskin here
in this century.
445
00:30:18,995 --> 00:30:21,993
Mr. Bradley, we must have every
step.
446
00:30:21,995 --> 00:30:24,626
This is not about the centuries.
447
00:30:24,628 --> 00:30:27,894
This is about recording the
evolution of meaning.
448
00:30:27,896 --> 00:30:30,293
Go to Milton, it's right here.
449
00:30:30,295 --> 00:30:32,961
Yes, sir.
450
00:30:42,362 --> 00:30:43,727
Mr. Bradley.
451
00:30:43,729 --> 00:30:45,028
Charles.
452
00:30:50,728 --> 00:30:52,929
Accepted.
453
00:31:06,896 --> 00:31:09,026
Razor! Bring me my razor!
454
00:31:09,028 --> 00:31:12,659
Sir Richard! Calm down!
455
00:31:12,661 --> 00:31:14,626
The razor, bring me my razor!
456
00:31:14,628 --> 00:31:16,029
Lads, bloody well hurry up!
457
00:31:17,295 --> 00:31:19,695
Bring it, bring me the razor!
458
00:31:20,995 --> 00:31:24,062
- Bring me the razor!
- Come on, hurry up!
459
00:31:26,095 --> 00:31:29,360
Father! Father! Father! Father!
460
00:31:29,362 --> 00:31:32,928
Father! Father! Father!
461
00:31:34,728 --> 00:31:37,861
This man, Declan
Reilly, is a deserter.
462
00:31:44,928 --> 00:31:47,195
Mark him for what he is.
463
00:32:12,861 --> 00:32:15,294
Agh!
464
00:32:17,061 --> 00:32:19,594
Agh!
465
00:32:29,628 --> 00:32:32,193
Zinc... I'll need sheets
of zinc...
466
00:32:32,195 --> 00:32:34,959
he must have come from below.
467
00:32:34,961 --> 00:32:38,359
And water, in a bowl, by the
threshold.
468
00:32:38,361 --> 00:32:41,092
This, the demon will not pass.
469
00:32:41,094 --> 00:32:42,692
What's on the other side,
doctor?
470
00:32:42,694 --> 00:32:45,360
The night, he wants to take me
there.
471
00:32:45,362 --> 00:32:49,691
With his blind eyes, he can only
see me in the dark.
472
00:32:49,693 --> 00:32:52,292
How would you feel if we
brightened the light?
473
00:32:52,294 --> 00:32:53,292
As treatment?
474
00:32:53,294 --> 00:32:54,892
I don't need treatment!
475
00:32:54,894 --> 00:32:57,059
Not as treatment! As an
experiment!
476
00:32:57,061 --> 00:32:59,360
I need to see him come so I can
defend myself!
477
00:32:59,362 --> 00:33:02,893
An experiment in
self-protection...
478
00:33:02,895 --> 00:33:07,292
we embark on together, doctor,
yes?
479
00:33:07,294 --> 00:33:09,326
Let me take a look at these.
480
00:33:09,328 --> 00:33:11,925
Superficial lacerations,
multiple to the face.
481
00:33:11,927 --> 00:33:13,993
How would you feel, doctor...
482
00:33:13,995 --> 00:33:19,626
if we were to introduce some
of the comforts of home?
483
00:33:19,628 --> 00:33:22,658
Orthognathous jaw, facial angle,
80 degrees...
484
00:33:22,660 --> 00:33:26,625
maybe some clothing.
Amativeness, 8 incline...
485
00:33:26,627 --> 00:33:28,691
Philoprogenitiveness, 4 decline.
486
00:33:28,693 --> 00:33:30,025
How would that be?
487
00:33:30,027 --> 00:33:31,792
My own wardrobe as protection?
488
00:33:31,794 --> 00:33:36,192
As protection, precisely.
Adhesiveness, 3 constant.
489
00:33:36,194 --> 00:33:39,925
Combativeness, 6 incline.
Secretiveness, 8.
490
00:33:39,927 --> 00:33:42,392
Hope, 4, constant.
491
00:33:42,394 --> 00:33:46,159
Yes, the simple things that we
can fit into your surroundings.
492
00:33:46,161 --> 00:33:48,758
It also happens that the
adjoining cell...
493
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,159
has become available, you could
stretch your legs.
494
00:33:52,161 --> 00:33:54,392
It would give me a space
to paint.
495
00:33:54,394 --> 00:33:56,159
I could have easels with paints.
496
00:33:56,161 --> 00:34:02,658
Certainly. Wonder, Ideality,
Wit, Form. All 8, decline.
497
00:34:02,660 --> 00:34:05,957
Eventuality undetermined. Do you
have any other requests, doctor?
498
00:34:05,959 --> 00:34:08,657
My books. May I have my books?
499
00:34:08,659 --> 00:34:09,825
By all means, anything else?
500
00:34:09,827 --> 00:34:11,325
My gun.
501
00:34:11,327 --> 00:34:14,158
Perhaps we'll give that one
a miss.
502
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,292
Thank you, doctor.
503
00:34:15,294 --> 00:34:17,259
Please, don't thank me.
504
00:34:17,261 --> 00:34:19,059
It has been a long time since
anyone has...
505
00:34:19,061 --> 00:34:24,858
My dear friend, no thanks, no
thanks...
506
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:27,293
a new beginning.
507
00:34:30,060 --> 00:34:33,859
Yes, a new beginning, yes.
508
00:34:34,127 --> 00:34:37,892
How can a man of
such high breeding...
509
00:34:37,894 --> 00:34:50,892
have regressed through disease
so far back to animality?
510
00:34:50,894 --> 00:34:52,293
Doctor?
511
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:55,292
Mr. Muncie?
512
00:34:55,294 --> 00:34:58,657
We wanted to give you this, sir,
the lads all chipped in.
513
00:34:58,659 --> 00:35:01,358
And what have we here?
514
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:06,625
It's a book, sir. We're all
grateful to you.
515
00:35:06,627 --> 00:35:08,791
Yes, it is. Thank you,
Mr. Muncie.
516
00:35:08,793 --> 00:35:11,192
For saving a young guard's life,
sir.
517
00:35:11,194 --> 00:35:15,957
I will read it avidly and I will
treasure it forever!
518
00:35:15,959 --> 00:35:18,957
You thank your men on my behalf!
519
00:35:18,959 --> 00:35:20,724
Merry Christmas, sir.
520
00:35:20,726 --> 00:35:23,293
Merry Christmas, you, too, yes.
521
00:35:27,794 --> 00:35:30,627
Ham, Mr. Muncie!
522
00:35:31,759 --> 00:35:33,291
Sir?
523
00:35:33,293 --> 00:35:38,791
I find that a good, warm ham is
often better...
524
00:35:38,793 --> 00:35:41,191
for fighting the cold than any
number of blankets...
525
00:35:41,193 --> 00:35:45,926
or coals in the fire, especially
at this time of year.
526
00:35:49,293 --> 00:35:50,757
Did he like the book, sir?
527
00:35:50,759 --> 00:35:52,158
- The book?
- Yeah.
528
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,623
- I don't know.
- Well, has he read it?
529
00:35:54,625 --> 00:35:56,291
- Well, he opened the wrapping.
- Yes, sir.
530
00:35:56,293 --> 00:35:58,357
- And then he opened the book.
- Yes.
531
00:35:58,359 --> 00:36:00,924
And then he threw it out
the window.
532
00:36:00,926 --> 00:36:01,924
He what?
533
00:36:01,926 --> 00:36:03,956
Yeah, he said a demon vaporized
off the page...
534
00:36:03,958 --> 00:36:05,158
and went up his nostrils.
535
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:06,224
His nostrils?
536
00:36:06,226 --> 00:36:08,859
He's in there now trying to pull
out his nose hairs.
537
00:36:28,059 --> 00:36:31,623
To chart the life
of each word, we must start...
538
00:36:31,625 --> 00:36:35,390
with a record of its birth,
when it was first written down.
539
00:36:35,392 --> 00:36:38,624
From there, words come down to
us through the ages...
540
00:36:38,626 --> 00:36:40,856
twisting and turning, weaving
their way.
541
00:36:40,858 --> 00:36:43,623
Their meanings slipping and
slivering, offishlike, adding..
542
00:36:43,625 --> 00:36:47,290
and shedding subtleties of
nuance to and from themselves.
543
00:36:47,292 --> 00:36:49,624
But they leave tracks...
544
00:36:49,626 --> 00:36:53,023
in the great expanse of the
literature...
545
00:36:53,025 --> 00:36:54,823
of the English language.
546
00:36:58,658 --> 00:37:00,857
We will chase
them, hunt them...
547
00:37:00,859 --> 00:37:05,290
and ferret them out, all
of them, every single word...
548
00:37:05,292 --> 00:37:07,224
from all the centuries
of writing...
549
00:37:07,226 --> 00:37:10,892
and we will do so by reading
every single book.
550
00:37:14,625 --> 00:37:17,592
Can it be done?
551
00:37:22,392 --> 00:37:26,390
You crazy, beautiful bastard!
552
00:37:26,392 --> 00:37:28,725
Guard! Guard!
553
00:37:31,658 --> 00:37:33,123
Ink, I'll need ink.
554
00:37:33,125 --> 00:37:35,057
Yes, sir, I understand, sir.
555
00:37:35,059 --> 00:37:37,123
- Paper.
- Yes, sir.
556
00:37:37,125 --> 00:37:39,823
- Lots and lots of it.
- I'll see what I can do, doctor.
557
00:37:39,825 --> 00:37:42,390
And Coleman...
558
00:37:42,392 --> 00:37:44,057
Yes, sir?
559
00:37:44,059 --> 00:37:49,957
Would you be so kind as to
dispose of this for me?
560
00:37:52,292 --> 00:37:53,923
What is it, sir?
561
00:37:53,925 --> 00:37:55,192
You can't see?
562
00:37:57,892 --> 00:38:00,257
Yes... of course, I can, sir...
563
00:38:00,259 --> 00:38:03,023
Yes, nasal hair, mind the
demonic vapors...
564
00:38:03,025 --> 00:38:04,290
make sure to wash your hands...
565
00:38:04,292 --> 00:38:07,225
and I'll make sure to fish out
some more later.
566
00:38:09,691 --> 00:38:12,224
- Thank you, sir.
- Thank you, Coleman.
567
00:38:16,824 --> 00:38:19,622
I'm too cold. I'm gonna get
myself home.
568
00:38:19,624 --> 00:38:22,222
We'll warm each other up,
come on.
569
00:38:22,224 --> 00:38:25,390
- I'm too cold.
- Oh, you got a smile.
570
00:38:25,392 --> 00:38:27,889
- I can't, it's too cold!
- Come on!
571
00:38:27,891 --> 00:38:30,357
No!
572
00:38:30,359 --> 00:38:33,389
No, no, you promised me!
You promised me!
573
00:38:33,391 --> 00:38:36,056
Get off, I don't owe you
nothing!
574
00:38:36,058 --> 00:38:39,722
What am I meant to feed my
little ones with, eh?
575
00:38:39,724 --> 00:38:42,958
I don't know, ask their father.
576
00:39:04,690 --> 00:39:07,024
How are them matches coming, eh?
577
00:39:14,391 --> 00:39:17,222
Mum, you alright?
578
00:39:17,224 --> 00:39:19,824
Yeah, yeah, I just needed
a moment.
579
00:39:43,058 --> 00:39:45,155
Please, can I help you?
580
00:39:45,157 --> 00:39:47,055
It'll be alright.
581
00:39:47,057 --> 00:39:49,389
Good evening, I was
wondering, is your mum around?
582
00:39:49,391 --> 00:39:51,791
We'll get those matches done
by night's end.
583
00:39:53,091 --> 00:39:54,789
It's a man at the door.
584
00:39:54,791 --> 00:39:57,190
Tell him it's Christmas and
he'll go away.
585
00:40:03,689 --> 00:40:05,855
Could you just give her
this for me...
586
00:40:05,857 --> 00:40:09,121
and tell your mother Happy
Christmas from Mr. Muncie?
587
00:40:09,123 --> 00:40:11,157
Goodnight, girls.
588
00:40:12,324 --> 00:40:14,557
Mum?
589
00:40:18,690 --> 00:40:21,188
It's a ham in one, the other,
he didn't say.
590
00:40:21,190 --> 00:40:23,088
He said tell your mum
Happy Christmas.
591
00:40:23,090 --> 00:40:24,854
Happy Christmas from Mr. Muncie.
592
00:40:24,856 --> 00:40:30,556
It's alright then, isn't it,
Mum?
593
00:40:35,757 --> 00:40:39,687
Sir, stop, sir, please!
594
00:40:39,689 --> 00:40:40,888
Yes, dear?
595
00:40:47,956 --> 00:40:49,754
Is that supposed to be me?
596
00:40:49,756 --> 00:40:51,723
Yeah.
597
00:40:55,957 --> 00:40:57,988
Good night, then, Mrs. Merrett.
598
00:40:57,990 --> 00:41:00,890
Good night... and thank you.
599
00:41:05,390 --> 00:41:06,954
Forgive me for saying, ma'am...
600
00:41:06,956 --> 00:41:11,821
but it doesn't have to be
this way.
601
00:41:11,823 --> 00:41:13,355
The children... they don't need
to go hungry.
602
00:41:13,357 --> 00:41:17,224
There is one waiting to feed
them.
603
00:41:21,390 --> 00:41:23,687
Take me to him.
604
00:41:23,689 --> 00:41:28,721
Let me look him in the eye,
see if I can stomach him.
605
00:41:28,723 --> 00:41:31,121
I went to a banquet
and I ate apples...
606
00:41:31,123 --> 00:41:33,355
bananas, and cranberries.
607
00:41:33,357 --> 00:41:38,321
I went to the banquet and I ate
apples...
608
00:41:38,323 --> 00:41:40,721
bananas, cranberries, and...
dog.
609
00:41:40,723 --> 00:41:43,121
That can't be, you can't eat
dog.
610
00:41:43,123 --> 00:41:44,221
Yes, I can.
611
00:41:44,223 --> 00:41:46,188
No, you can't.
612
00:41:46,190 --> 00:41:52,255
Mum! Mother! Mum?
613
00:42:17,389 --> 00:42:18,856
Merry Christmas all!
614
00:42:20,356 --> 00:42:23,955
Hey! We're taking fire,
Mr. Bradley!
615
00:42:25,922 --> 00:42:27,157
Pounce on them!
616
00:42:34,189 --> 00:42:35,955
Ah, you wee...!
617
00:42:46,222 --> 00:42:47,955
Well, you deserved it.
618
00:42:51,989 --> 00:42:54,620
Faster!
619
00:42:54,622 --> 00:42:57,953
Do you remember our first
Christmas at the school?
620
00:42:57,955 --> 00:43:01,853
Harold was no more than 8 or 9
months old.
621
00:43:01,855 --> 00:43:06,853
Such a fat, little baby. Do you
remember how he used to cry?
622
00:43:06,855 --> 00:43:08,686
Oh, god.
623
00:43:08,688 --> 00:43:11,621
One night, he was screaming so
hard...
624
00:43:11,623 --> 00:43:14,820
I don't know how his little body
could do it.
625
00:43:14,822 --> 00:43:19,220
Every ounce of him shrieking.
Nothing I tried would calm him.
626
00:43:19,222 --> 00:43:23,753
I was frightened, then you
came home.
627
00:43:23,755 --> 00:43:26,187
You lifted him up into your
arms...
628
00:43:26,189 --> 00:43:30,588
you held him to your chest,
and he stopped.
629
00:43:31,688 --> 00:43:36,154
He was so exhausted he fell
asleep instantly.
630
00:43:36,156 --> 00:43:41,219
It's always been that way,
with all of them.
631
00:43:41,221 --> 00:43:44,087
You had something I didn't.
632
00:43:44,089 --> 00:43:48,220
So I taught myself to be what
you were not.
633
00:43:48,222 --> 00:43:51,320
Strict, fixed, changeless.
634
00:43:51,322 --> 00:43:55,820
A queen and a clown, together
a perfect whole.
635
00:43:55,822 --> 00:43:57,154
What if it changed?
636
00:43:57,156 --> 00:44:00,156
What if you're not there
to be the clown?
637
00:44:02,189 --> 00:44:04,787
I know I've been less than
present lately...
638
00:44:04,789 --> 00:44:09,119
but change will come,
and for the better.
639
00:44:09,121 --> 00:44:12,687
I wish I had your certainty.
640
00:44:18,355 --> 00:44:22,187
Want to put the fire out when
you come to bed?
641
00:44:30,655 --> 00:44:32,886
Ah, I thought you might be here,
sir.
642
00:44:32,888 --> 00:44:35,719
I have a few hours before my
little ones wake...
643
00:44:35,721 --> 00:44:37,320
for Christmas morning.
644
00:44:37,322 --> 00:44:39,020
I thought I might take another
look at Approve.
645
00:44:39,022 --> 00:44:41,587
That'll make it two of us.
646
00:44:50,687 --> 00:44:54,654
William? Dr. Minor?
647
00:44:56,988 --> 00:44:59,685
I have a proposal for you.
648
00:44:59,687 --> 00:45:01,287
There's been a request
for a meeting.
649
00:45:01,289 --> 00:45:06,887
Tristram Shandy, a gift from Mr.
Muncie and his men...
650
00:45:06,889 --> 00:45:09,754
but much more.
651
00:45:11,888 --> 00:45:13,086
This is very delicate.
652
00:45:13,088 --> 00:45:16,286
I'll need books, far more
volumes...
653
00:45:16,288 --> 00:45:17,919
than I have within my own reach.
654
00:45:17,921 --> 00:45:21,653
William, I think this could be
very important for us.
655
00:45:21,655 --> 00:45:24,153
Oxford University has undertaken
an inventory...
656
00:45:24,155 --> 00:45:30,021
of the entire English language,
and they've asked for help.
657
00:45:31,121 --> 00:45:33,255
Are you listening to me?
658
00:45:38,821 --> 00:45:45,654
I'll be all right... with work,
with this work.
659
00:45:47,687 --> 00:45:53,085
I'll be all right, but I need
books...
660
00:45:53,087 --> 00:45:55,754
I only need books.
661
00:45:57,686 --> 00:46:00,286
Make me a list of all the titles
that you require.
662
00:46:00,288 --> 00:46:03,619
If I have them, I'll get them
sent to you.
663
00:46:03,621 --> 00:46:05,154
Thank you, doctor.
664
00:46:10,188 --> 00:46:11,820
William...
665
00:46:19,887 --> 00:46:22,288
When does she want to come?
666
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:33,853
Mrs. Merrett.
667
00:46:37,787 --> 00:46:40,819
- Where is he?
- It should only be a moment.
668
00:46:40,821 --> 00:46:44,386
I just wanted to make sure that
everyone was breathing.
669
00:46:44,388 --> 00:46:48,253
There's a real generosity
in your visit today...
670
00:46:48,255 --> 00:46:52,919
Mrs. Merrett... a true courage.
671
00:46:52,921 --> 00:46:55,320
Courage, doctor, is not
why I came.
672
00:47:14,020 --> 00:47:18,553
Is it... is it possible
they wait?
673
00:47:36,987 --> 00:47:39,020
The letter.
674
00:47:39,787 --> 00:47:41,154
Yes.
675
00:47:45,287 --> 00:47:47,020
All right.
676
00:47:48,953 --> 00:47:50,085
How can...
677
00:47:50,087 --> 00:47:51,651
We'll take care of everything,
sir.
678
00:47:51,653 --> 00:47:54,053
- Thank you, doctor.
- Thank you, Mrs. Merrett.
679
00:47:59,054 --> 00:48:01,286
It doesn't make it right.
680
00:48:04,686 --> 00:48:08,052
What would you care to send her?
681
00:48:08,054 --> 00:48:10,018
Everything.
682
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,118
Few of the
earliest books have been read.
683
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,985
It is in the 17th and 18th
Centuries above all...
684
00:48:36,987 --> 00:48:41,817
that help is urgently needed,
for nearly the whole...
685
00:48:41,819 --> 00:48:44,850
of those centuries have still
to be gone through.
686
00:48:44,852 --> 00:48:47,351
You may concentrate on the
rare, also late...
687
00:48:47,353 --> 00:48:50,985
old-fashioned new and peculiar,
but avoid not the quotidian...
688
00:48:50,987 --> 00:48:54,618
for every word in action
becomes beautiful...
689
00:48:54,620 --> 00:48:56,619
in the light of its own
meaning.
690
00:49:07,752 --> 00:49:12,585
Mr. Muncie! Mr. Muncie!
691
00:49:15,053 --> 00:49:18,019
Sorry to have woken you, I need
your help with a post.
692
00:49:20,353 --> 00:49:23,719
Yes, well, is it night?
693
00:49:28,153 --> 00:49:32,117
Such a lot of it, need
envelopes, tons...
694
00:49:32,119 --> 00:49:35,617
lots and lots of envelopes
and a large bag.
695
00:49:35,619 --> 00:49:36,683
Yes, sir.
696
00:49:36,685 --> 00:49:38,217
And a carpenter, can you bring
a carpenter by...
697
00:49:38,219 --> 00:49:40,119
in the morning, of course?
698
00:50:08,219 --> 00:50:10,217
Good morning, sir.
699
00:50:10,219 --> 00:50:12,617
Not so good I'm afraid, Henry.
700
00:50:12,619 --> 00:50:15,150
It's Art, none of it is working.
701
00:50:15,152 --> 00:50:17,150
Are you sure, sir? I checked it
myself last night.
702
00:50:17,152 --> 00:50:20,950
The construct is off. It has
lost all sense of coherence.
703
00:50:20,952 --> 00:50:23,316
And it's missing countless
variations of meaning.
704
00:50:23,318 --> 00:50:24,483
We'll have to start it anew.
705
00:50:24,485 --> 00:50:28,016
But, sir, it will take weeks
just to reset the definitions.
706
00:50:28,018 --> 00:50:31,151
Mr. Gell has asked for me at the
Press office this morning.
707
00:50:31,153 --> 00:50:34,117
I would very much like to see
Art torn apart...
708
00:50:34,119 --> 00:50:37,850
and restarted when I return, eh?
709
00:50:37,852 --> 00:50:39,750
Very well, sir.
710
00:50:39,752 --> 00:50:41,318
Thank you, Henry.
711
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,384
Your book, Mr. Murray, is
going to be an unassailable...
712
00:50:54,386 --> 00:50:56,016
contribution to English
scholarship.
713
00:50:56,018 --> 00:50:58,949
It will make you famous,
when it is finished.
714
00:50:58,951 --> 00:51:00,884
Look around, Mr. Murray.
715
00:51:00,886 --> 00:51:05,316
Empire, one quarter of the land
and peoples of this earth.
716
00:51:05,318 --> 00:51:08,816
The largest trading dominion
ever known.
717
00:51:08,818 --> 00:51:11,916
If one wishes to participate,
one bows down to Her Majesty...
718
00:51:11,918 --> 00:51:15,152
and one speaks her tongue,
English.
719
00:51:16,685 --> 00:51:18,716
Forgive me, Mr. Gell...
720
00:51:18,718 --> 00:51:20,783
remind me why I am being kept
from my work this morning.
721
00:51:20,785 --> 00:51:22,252
The Bible, Mr. Murray.
722
00:51:24,985 --> 00:51:27,150
I was brought onto the press...
723
00:51:27,152 --> 00:51:30,949
to modernize the commerce of
academia, to sell.
724
00:51:30,951 --> 00:51:34,016
And do you know what the first
hotcake I found was?
725
00:51:34,018 --> 00:51:35,716
The King James Bible...
726
00:51:35,718 --> 00:51:38,749
it has sold everywhere, in every
backwater and morass...
727
00:51:38,751 --> 00:51:41,283
where an Englishman is doing
God's work in a frock.
728
00:51:41,285 --> 00:51:43,883
We have operations on every
continent.
729
00:51:43,885 --> 00:51:46,783
Depots in Edinburgh, Toronto,
Melbourne and Calcutta.
730
00:51:46,785 --> 00:51:49,149
All printing, binding,
dispatching all advertising...
731
00:51:49,151 --> 00:51:51,815
and all, now, ready for the next
good book.
732
00:51:51,817 --> 00:51:54,283
All waiting... for you.
733
00:51:54,285 --> 00:51:55,716
What is this?
734
00:51:55,718 --> 00:51:57,183
Your work is taking too long.
735
00:51:57,185 --> 00:51:58,716
Our expectations constantly
revised...
736
00:51:58,718 --> 00:52:00,716
and not a single page to show
for it.
737
00:52:00,718 --> 00:52:02,882
The delegates have unanimously
agreed that I take charge...
738
00:52:02,884 --> 00:52:04,882
of keeping the project to time.
739
00:52:04,884 --> 00:52:07,250
To that effect, you have in your
hands a set of suggestions...
740
00:52:07,252 --> 00:52:10,249
on how to curb the scope
of the work.
741
00:52:10,251 --> 00:52:12,783
What we need is more rigorous
selection...
742
00:52:12,785 --> 00:52:15,051
survival only of the fittest
words.
743
00:52:21,185 --> 00:52:25,651
I'm tired. My team, we are all
beyond tired.
744
00:52:27,151 --> 00:52:30,150
For months now, my pleas for
help have fallen on deaf ears.
745
00:52:30,152 --> 00:52:31,316
You have refused to pay...
746
00:52:31,318 --> 00:52:33,985
for even for a single additional
assistant.
747
00:52:35,317 --> 00:52:38,182
I began this intending to create
something unprecedented.
748
00:52:38,184 --> 00:52:40,615
To order the world of words...
749
00:52:40,617 --> 00:52:44,116
making them universally
accessible and useful.
750
00:52:44,118 --> 00:52:47,115
I swore that I would bend at
nothing to make it happen.
751
00:52:47,117 --> 00:52:51,915
And as of now, this very moment,
my resolve is greater than ever.
752
00:52:51,917 --> 00:52:53,848
You are on the verge of all out
cancellation.
753
00:52:53,850 --> 00:52:55,915
These rules are designed to help
keep the work going.
754
00:52:55,917 --> 00:52:57,282
You may not like them, Mr.
Murray...
755
00:52:57,284 --> 00:52:58,681
but what other way is there?
756
00:52:58,683 --> 00:53:01,149
My way, Mr. Gell.
757
00:53:01,151 --> 00:53:05,848
Mr. Murray, we are watching
with a concerned eye.
758
00:53:05,850 --> 00:53:09,282
Watch, then, and be amazed.
759
00:53:19,683 --> 00:53:23,317
Lord in Heaven help me.
I am lost.
760
00:53:24,883 --> 00:53:29,149
Sir! Sir! Sir?
761
00:53:29,151 --> 00:53:30,282
What?
762
00:53:30,284 --> 00:53:34,082
It's a miracle, it's impossible.
763
00:53:34,084 --> 00:53:35,681
Calm down, man, spit it out.
764
00:53:35,683 --> 00:53:38,915
- Approve, sir, it's complete.
- Complete?
765
00:53:38,917 --> 00:53:40,115
You were right, sir.
766
00:53:40,117 --> 00:53:42,382
"Others who approve not to
transgress by thy example"...
767
00:53:42,384 --> 00:53:43,314
Milton, Paradise Lost.
768
00:53:43,316 --> 00:53:44,149
You found it.
769
00:53:44,151 --> 00:53:46,181
No, not us, sir. You better read
this.
770
00:53:46,183 --> 00:53:48,748
It is with a great sense
of privilege...
771
00:53:48,750 --> 00:53:51,082
that I offer myself up
as a volunteer.
772
00:53:51,084 --> 00:53:52,781
Please, sir, read on.
773
00:53:52,783 --> 00:53:56,149
Enclosed please
find one-thousand word slips...
774
00:53:56,151 --> 00:53:58,815
with corresponding
quotations...
775
00:53:58,817 --> 00:54:02,149
from the height and depth
of literature.
776
00:54:02,151 --> 00:54:06,848
I have derived a key, a type
of dictionary...
777
00:54:06,850 --> 00:54:10,648
within a dictionary, that
allows the amassing of words...
778
00:54:10,650 --> 00:54:13,048
with addended quotations.
779
00:54:13,050 --> 00:54:15,115
My request is simple.
780
00:54:15,117 --> 00:54:17,747
To make your burden light.
781
00:54:17,749 --> 00:54:22,681
Write to me, tell me what
specific words at present...
782
00:54:22,683 --> 00:54:25,617
shimmer and fade at your grasp.
783
00:54:27,284 --> 00:54:29,315
Let useful others troll the
oceans...
784
00:54:29,317 --> 00:54:32,614
with their nets cast wide.
785
00:54:32,616 --> 00:54:36,181
I shall throw my line and pluck
the very quotes...
786
00:54:36,183 --> 00:54:40,284
that evade you when you call
upon me to do so.
787
00:54:43,084 --> 00:54:48,617
Very truly yours, W.C. Minor,
Crowthorne, Berkshire.
788
00:54:50,283 --> 00:54:51,416
Look, it's all there.
789
00:54:51,418 --> 00:54:55,647
He's given us Approve in the
17th and 18th centuries.
790
00:54:55,649 --> 00:54:56,348
And Art?
791
00:54:56,350 --> 00:54:58,614
Not that one, but so much else.
792
00:54:58,616 --> 00:55:01,081
All in the "A" s, all words
we're working on...
793
00:55:01,083 --> 00:55:03,749
and at first glance all
of it usable.
794
00:55:05,749 --> 00:55:07,215
God has sent us a savior.
795
00:55:07,217 --> 00:55:09,647
Now all we have to do is try to
keep up with him.
796
00:55:09,649 --> 00:55:11,714
Thank you, Mr. Hall.
797
00:55:11,716 --> 00:55:14,649
Let's have a good look
at these slips.
798
00:55:16,749 --> 00:55:18,081
Sort these now.
799
00:55:18,083 --> 00:55:20,214
You cannot fathom
the impact of both...
800
00:55:20,216 --> 00:55:24,081
your offer and your timing.
I am your grateful recipient.
801
00:55:24,083 --> 00:55:27,281
Let paper and ink be our flesh
and blood...
802
00:55:27,283 --> 00:55:28,781
until we are privileged
to meet.
803
00:55:28,783 --> 00:55:29,947
That's right.
804
00:55:29,949 --> 00:55:31,680
Enclosed are a
list of words that...
805
00:55:31,682 --> 00:55:34,614
at present... are eluding us.
806
00:55:34,616 --> 00:55:38,316
The word Art is proving
particularly troublesome.
807
00:55:39,949 --> 00:55:42,280
Enclosed you will
find the quotations...
808
00:55:42,282 --> 00:55:44,081
that you have requested.
809
00:55:44,083 --> 00:55:47,880
In pondering "Art", I am
reminded of the words...
810
00:55:47,882 --> 00:55:50,746
of a great man of our time
who said...
811
00:55:50,748 --> 00:55:56,347
all great and beautiful work
has come of first gazing...
812
00:55:56,349 --> 00:55:59,248
without shrinking into the
darkness.
813
00:55:59,250 --> 00:56:00,980
May I, sir?
814
00:56:00,982 --> 00:56:02,116
Aye.
815
00:56:03,316 --> 00:56:04,715
Ah.
816
00:56:11,082 --> 00:56:14,679
I have been much
acquainted with that darkness.
817
00:56:14,681 --> 00:56:18,981
Thank you for letting me lend
my light to yours.
818
00:56:18,983 --> 00:56:22,213
Together we shall shrink the
darkness...
819
00:56:22,215 --> 00:56:24,880
until there is only light.
820
00:56:24,882 --> 00:56:30,050
Yours, W.C. Minor. Crowthorne,
Berkshire.
821
00:56:33,783 --> 00:56:37,115
Ah, here it is... heh-heh, eh.
822
00:56:45,315 --> 00:56:47,982
Now we'll put your name on it,
too.
823
00:56:51,149 --> 00:56:54,713
Mr. Bradley, can I have another
fascicle, please?
824
00:56:54,715 --> 00:56:59,548
I know of another who's joy in
seeing it would be immeasurable.
825
00:57:03,748 --> 00:57:05,679
Yes, ma'am.
826
00:57:05,681 --> 00:57:07,813
Is Mr. Muncie working?
827
00:57:07,815 --> 00:57:09,047
He is.
828
00:57:09,049 --> 00:57:11,946
Could you please tell him Mrs.
Merrett is here to see him?
829
00:57:11,948 --> 00:57:13,813
I will indeed, ma'am.
830
00:57:23,848 --> 00:57:25,247
Hello, ma'am.
831
00:57:25,249 --> 00:57:26,815
Mr. Muncie.
832
00:57:30,382 --> 00:57:32,912
So pleased you've
returned, Mrs. Merrett.
833
00:57:32,914 --> 00:57:35,646
Come on in then, ma'am.
834
00:57:35,648 --> 00:57:39,615
It's... very interesting.
835
00:57:45,315 --> 00:57:47,282
Come in, doctor.
836
00:57:57,048 --> 00:57:59,147
Mrs. Merrett has brought you
a book.
837
00:57:59,149 --> 00:58:03,213
Yes... from Maggs, the book
shop.
838
00:58:03,215 --> 00:58:04,982
I was told you like to read.
839
00:58:08,048 --> 00:58:09,581
Thank you.
840
00:58:10,947 --> 00:58:13,347
Would you care to take a walk
on the grounds, madam?
841
00:58:13,349 --> 00:58:15,647
It is a beautiful spring day.
842
00:58:19,181 --> 00:58:21,281
Did you read it?
843
00:58:23,081 --> 00:58:27,312
Great Expectations, the book you
brought me? Is it a favorite?
844
00:58:27,314 --> 00:58:30,746
No, no, the shop suggested it.
845
00:58:30,748 --> 00:58:32,214
Ah.
846
00:58:34,114 --> 00:58:37,315
I came to say... thank you.
847
00:58:40,714 --> 00:58:44,046
The children, they're not going
hungry no more.
848
00:58:44,048 --> 00:58:47,212
They've got warm clothes now,
even for next year, but...
849
00:58:47,214 --> 00:58:49,179
It's never too late with
children.
850
00:58:49,181 --> 00:58:50,814
Their whole lives are tomorrows.
851
00:58:53,381 --> 00:58:58,613
But I can't go on taking your
money. It's... it's not right.
852
00:58:58,615 --> 00:59:01,146
- Please, Mrs. Merrett.
- It's blood money.
853
00:59:01,148 --> 00:59:06,112
I know, but it's my blood, too.
My life belongs to you.
854
00:59:06,114 --> 00:59:08,079
I made it so on that night.
855
00:59:08,081 --> 00:59:10,112
I took a life and by dreadful
bargain...
856
00:59:10,114 --> 00:59:11,845
I've placed another in your
hands.
857
00:59:11,847 --> 00:59:13,614
By right, all that I have
is yours.
858
00:59:17,113 --> 00:59:21,580
I don't know what to think.
I don't know why I came.
859
00:59:23,248 --> 00:59:26,014
Mrs. Merrett, please!
860
00:59:29,314 --> 00:59:32,680
Well, let me know if she
comes back.
861
00:59:34,713 --> 00:59:37,281
Let's have a look at those
chains.
862
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:57,047
Thank you.
863
00:59:58,114 --> 00:59:59,611
Can I help you, sir?
864
00:59:59,613 --> 01:00:01,611
Yes, I'm here to see the
superintendent.
865
01:00:01,613 --> 01:00:02,644
Are you expected?
866
01:00:02,646 --> 01:00:04,211
No, I came on impulse.
867
01:00:04,213 --> 01:00:07,612
I'm James Murray, I am a friend
of Dr. Minor's...
868
01:00:07,614 --> 01:00:09,145
yet only through the post.
869
01:00:09,147 --> 01:00:12,312
Dr. Minor, the superintendent.
870
01:00:12,314 --> 01:00:15,311
Ah, ah, I came to bring him this
fruit of our labor.
871
01:00:15,313 --> 01:00:17,812
I know who you are, sir.
872
01:00:17,814 --> 01:00:22,346
I posted all the letters for
him. I licked the stamps myself.
873
01:00:22,348 --> 01:00:25,081
Oh, thank you, for your mother
tongue.
874
01:00:26,679 --> 01:00:28,546
Yeah, I'll see what I can do.
875
01:00:33,180 --> 01:00:37,246
- So this is the good doctor?
- Mr. Murray, sir.
876
01:00:37,248 --> 01:00:41,247
Dr. Minor, I'm proud to make
your acquaintance, sir.
877
01:00:59,113 --> 01:01:00,644
I cannot believe my eyes.
878
01:01:00,646 --> 01:01:03,114
Nor I, nor this surprise.
879
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:06,944
How did you gain entrance?
880
01:01:06,946 --> 01:01:11,111
I came on the off chance and to
bring you this.
881
01:01:11,113 --> 01:01:12,744
Our gathering, so far.
882
01:01:12,746 --> 01:01:15,245
Meek, but poised to inherit
the earth.
883
01:01:15,247 --> 01:01:18,780
I thank you. You deserve
to be proud.
884
01:01:19,946 --> 01:01:21,078
Dumbfounded.
885
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:22,278
You've been a bulwark for us,
doctor.
886
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,245
I'm happy to be of assistance...
887
01:01:24,247 --> 01:01:28,144
though I am merely worker to the
queen. The alveary is yours.
888
01:01:28,146 --> 01:01:30,644
Ah, you sent the quote for
alveary? From...
889
01:01:30,646 --> 01:01:31,677
Baret, 1580.
890
01:01:31,679 --> 01:01:33,311
Of course, the early
dictionaries of English...
891
01:01:33,313 --> 01:01:36,111
Latin, French and Greek,
but of course, you know that.
892
01:01:36,113 --> 01:01:37,344
Of course, I don't.
893
01:01:37,346 --> 01:01:41,144
I do know the poets. You, in
your letters, know the scribe.
894
01:01:41,146 --> 01:01:43,877
Now my task is to de-scribe.
895
01:01:43,879 --> 01:01:46,978
Alveary, such a lovely buzz
to it.
896
01:01:46,980 --> 01:01:50,210
How about cosh, or fettle?
897
01:01:50,212 --> 01:01:53,144
Fine. Louche.
898
01:01:53,146 --> 01:01:54,245
I remember that from childhood.
899
01:01:54,247 --> 01:01:56,211
It always seemed undressed.
900
01:01:56,213 --> 01:01:58,078
Commotrix, I adore that one...
901
01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:00,245
sounds as though it wants
trouble.
902
01:02:00,247 --> 01:02:02,744
Troublesome indeed, and
difficult to find.
903
01:02:02,746 --> 01:02:03,978
Gyre.
904
01:02:03,980 --> 01:02:06,378
A revolution, a whirl.
905
01:02:06,380 --> 01:02:07,378
Decussated.
906
01:02:07,380 --> 01:02:10,111
Formed by crossing lines, an X,
an intersection.
907
01:02:10,113 --> 01:02:12,344
Perhaps you should be writing
definitions and I...
908
01:02:12,346 --> 01:02:16,811
well, I'd be useless tending
to your patients.
909
01:02:16,813 --> 01:02:19,676
So let's leave it as it is.
910
01:02:19,678 --> 01:02:22,877
We've only just started.
Partners, word for word.
911
01:02:22,879 --> 01:02:25,244
An American and a Scot?
912
01:02:25,246 --> 01:02:29,077
How does an American come to eye
these gates?
913
01:02:29,079 --> 01:02:31,777
A story for another day.
914
01:02:31,779 --> 01:02:34,044
Let's continue the comparison.
915
01:02:34,046 --> 01:02:35,877
One Oxford, one Yale.
916
01:02:35,879 --> 01:02:37,011
Both graying.
917
01:02:37,013 --> 01:02:38,944
One brilliant, one mad.
918
01:02:38,946 --> 01:02:40,679
Aye, but which is which?
919
01:03:08,046 --> 01:03:09,945
Where to from here?
920
01:03:12,279 --> 01:03:14,244
Antagonism to bathe.
921
01:03:14,246 --> 01:03:16,710
Batheable to cholera.
922
01:03:16,712 --> 01:03:18,010
Choleric to dysenteric.
923
01:03:18,012 --> 01:03:19,743
Dysentery to eczema.
924
01:03:19,745 --> 01:03:22,777
Eczematous to fungus.
925
01:03:22,779 --> 01:03:24,276
Why not jump straight to
leprosy?
926
01:03:24,278 --> 01:03:25,676
Oh, that's dropping off a lot.
927
01:03:25,678 --> 01:03:27,177
You could go back to acne.
928
01:03:27,179 --> 01:03:29,110
Well, there's no need to be
rash.
929
01:03:29,112 --> 01:03:32,077
- Who's this?
- Murray, sir.
930
01:03:32,079 --> 01:03:34,010
- Who's Murray?
- The man from the dictionary...
931
01:03:34,012 --> 01:03:36,044
the one the doctor has been
working on.
932
01:03:36,046 --> 01:03:38,843
Good God, well, he's had a very
busy day.
933
01:03:38,845 --> 01:03:40,743
Let's keep it short, shall we?
934
01:03:40,745 --> 01:03:41,944
Yes, sir.
935
01:03:43,179 --> 01:03:47,743
Mr. Muncie? Accord Dr. Murray
full visitation privileges.
936
01:03:47,745 --> 01:03:49,676
Let me know when they're
gonna happen.
937
01:03:49,678 --> 01:03:53,143
- Yes, sir.
- Thank you.
938
01:03:53,145 --> 01:03:57,012
Let's document all their
meetings, keep full details.
939
01:03:58,146 --> 01:04:00,044
One could dare say it's
beautiful here.
940
01:04:00,046 --> 01:04:02,309
Listen to the leaves scratch
the air.
941
01:04:02,311 --> 01:04:07,642
Sometimes it sounds like
gunfire. Sometimes like...
942
01:04:07,644 --> 01:04:11,544
- Like applause.
- Yes, applause.
943
01:04:14,311 --> 01:04:15,876
Mr. Murray?
944
01:04:15,878 --> 01:04:19,809
- Aye. I should be off then.
- Check your posts.
945
01:04:19,811 --> 01:04:22,742
I will garner my thoughts and
spark them off of yours.
946
01:04:22,744 --> 01:04:23,977
As iron sharpens iron...
947
01:04:23,979 --> 01:04:26,843
so one man sharpens the
countenance of a friend.
948
01:04:26,845 --> 01:04:30,344
Scripture. You're a man of God,
I should not be surprised.
949
01:04:30,346 --> 01:04:33,310
It is by His grace alone.
950
01:04:33,312 --> 01:04:36,110
I wish I had experienced
that more often.
951
01:04:36,112 --> 01:04:37,309
You will, my friend.
952
01:04:37,311 --> 01:04:41,309
Goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life.
953
01:04:41,311 --> 01:04:44,909
Yeah, though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death.
954
01:04:44,911 --> 01:04:47,177
You're not alone, good doctor.
955
01:04:47,179 --> 01:04:49,642
We are linked now...
consanguineous.
956
01:04:49,644 --> 01:04:51,243
Brothers.
957
01:05:03,611 --> 01:05:05,143
I looked for you this morning...
958
01:05:05,145 --> 01:05:07,209
I wanted to share some good news
with you.
959
01:05:07,211 --> 01:05:09,009
What news?
960
01:05:09,011 --> 01:05:13,143
A new volunteer, a miracle...
he's pulling us out of the mire.
961
01:05:13,145 --> 01:05:15,709
We've doubled our progress
with him already.
962
01:05:15,711 --> 01:05:19,844
That's wonderful, James.
Who is he?
963
01:05:22,744 --> 01:05:24,675
A friend.
964
01:05:44,378 --> 01:05:47,043
A letter from our
superintendent, sir.
965
01:05:47,045 --> 01:05:48,110
Oh, thank you.
966
01:05:50,044 --> 01:05:52,841
Henry, could you keep an eye
for all future letters...
967
01:05:52,843 --> 01:05:54,009
from the good doctor?
968
01:05:54,011 --> 01:05:57,778
He is rather a private man and I
would wish to honor that.
969
01:06:05,843 --> 01:06:08,009
I brought another book for you.
970
01:06:08,011 --> 01:06:11,175
I see that. What is it?
971
01:06:11,177 --> 01:06:14,242
One from the list Mr. Muncie
gave me.
972
01:06:14,244 --> 01:06:16,177
I asked, it's one of the ones
you wanted.
973
01:06:17,777 --> 01:06:21,243
You read.
974
01:06:21,245 --> 01:06:26,275
I will guess which one it is,
a paragraph, a sentence.
975
01:06:26,277 --> 01:06:28,310
I'm sorry, doctor.
976
01:06:29,311 --> 01:06:31,641
Mrs. Merrett, Mrs. Merrett...
977
01:06:31,643 --> 01:06:34,743
Mrs. Merrett, please,
what did I do?
978
01:06:42,610 --> 01:06:44,643
You cannot read.
979
01:06:46,111 --> 01:06:48,242
Forgive me, I should not have
presumed.
980
01:06:48,244 --> 01:06:51,075
I do not need you to bring me
books, Mrs. Merrett...
981
01:06:51,077 --> 01:06:52,208
it is your visits...
982
01:06:52,210 --> 01:06:53,775
Please, doctor, let me be.
983
01:06:53,777 --> 01:06:55,841
I can teach you.
984
01:06:55,843 --> 01:06:57,308
I am what I am.
985
01:06:57,310 --> 01:06:59,941
Oh, please, let me teach you.
You can teach your children.
986
01:06:59,943 --> 01:07:01,775
It's freedom, Mrs. Merrett.
987
01:07:01,777 --> 01:07:04,042
I can fly out of this place
on the backs of books.
988
01:07:04,044 --> 01:07:06,208
I've gone to the end of the
world on the wings of words.
989
01:07:06,210 --> 01:07:07,741
I can not.
990
01:07:07,743 --> 01:07:10,877
When I read, no one is after me.
991
01:07:13,110 --> 01:07:18,843
When I read, I am the one who is
chasing, chasing after God.
992
01:07:20,710 --> 01:07:25,177
Please, I beg you... join the
chase.
993
01:07:27,010 --> 01:07:29,242
Kumquat.
994
01:07:29,244 --> 01:07:31,075
Oblong.
995
01:07:31,077 --> 01:07:33,841
Pert.
996
01:07:33,843 --> 01:07:36,041
Prunes.
997
01:07:36,043 --> 01:07:39,375
Coconuts.
998
01:07:39,377 --> 01:07:42,642
Chitty.
999
01:07:50,809 --> 01:07:52,008
My win, Murray.
1000
01:07:52,010 --> 01:07:54,042
- What on earth is chitty?
- Long form of chit.
1001
01:07:54,044 --> 01:07:57,274
Of course, chit. Letter or note,
Indian origin, no?
1002
01:07:57,276 --> 01:07:59,009
That's right.
1003
01:08:02,310 --> 01:08:04,108
Who is she?
1004
01:08:04,110 --> 01:08:06,308
The impossible.
1005
01:08:06,310 --> 01:08:09,674
The more impossible, the greater
the love.
1006
01:08:09,676 --> 01:08:11,910
Do you truly believe that?
1007
01:08:15,076 --> 01:08:16,809
My heart is so sick.
1008
01:08:19,977 --> 01:08:25,141
What I know of love, the
sickness often becomes the cure.
1009
01:08:25,143 --> 01:08:32,042
She is my friend, she is my
dear friend...
1010
01:08:32,044 --> 01:08:35,976
she has suffered a terrible
loss.
1011
01:08:48,642 --> 01:08:52,243
Perhaps God's grace will come to
her through your love, William.
1012
01:09:05,876 --> 01:09:08,974
Eats, so you don't really say
the "A"?
1013
01:09:08,976 --> 01:09:10,309
Eats.
1014
01:09:12,376 --> 01:09:17,974
Wa... ush... brush and fish.
1015
01:09:17,976 --> 01:09:19,673
- Yes.
- Wash.
1016
01:09:19,675 --> 01:09:22,207
You're learning very, very fast.
1017
01:09:22,209 --> 01:09:28,307
The brain is wider than the sky,
for put them side by side...
1018
01:09:28,309 --> 01:09:34,774
the one the other will include,
with ease and you beside.
1019
01:09:34,776 --> 01:09:40,307
The brain is just the weight
of God, for, heft them...
1020
01:09:40,309 --> 01:09:45,607
pound for pound, and they will
differ if they do...
1021
01:09:45,609 --> 01:09:48,008
as syllable from the sound.
1022
01:09:48,908 --> 01:09:51,639
Did they cut the rest of the
hair on that girl off?
1023
01:10:03,309 --> 01:10:04,672
Mrs. Merrett?
1024
01:10:04,674 --> 01:10:06,041
He's making the most tremendous
progress.
1025
01:10:06,043 --> 01:10:07,373
Mrs. Merrett.
1026
01:10:07,375 --> 01:10:09,673
I'm beginning to believe the
more he's exposed...
1027
01:10:09,675 --> 01:10:13,607
to the world beyond these walls,
the speedier will be his cure.
1028
01:10:13,609 --> 01:10:15,739
You think he can be cured,
doctor?
1029
01:10:15,741 --> 01:10:21,306
I have to... there must be hope
for all of us.
1030
01:10:21,308 --> 01:10:25,173
Even the most broken of souls.
1031
01:10:25,175 --> 01:10:29,209
I, uh... think on it.
1032
01:10:34,308 --> 01:10:37,106
My Dear Friend,
I have recommended...
1033
01:10:37,108 --> 01:10:39,206
to the Delegates that your name
be acknowledged...
1034
01:10:39,208 --> 01:10:41,739
in the First Volume of the
"New English Dictionary...
1035
01:10:41,741 --> 01:10:45,240
on Historical Principles", to
which your vibrant mind...
1036
01:10:45,242 --> 01:10:47,973
has so critically given the
breath of life.
1037
01:10:47,975 --> 01:10:51,374
The last fascicle is already
complete.
1038
01:10:51,376 --> 01:10:54,242
Expectantly, James.
1039
01:11:32,775 --> 01:11:36,306
Congratulations, Dr. Murray.
1040
01:11:36,308 --> 01:11:38,705
For giving us A to byzen.
1041
01:11:38,707 --> 01:11:42,006
And for the rest to come,
beginning with cab.
1042
01:11:42,008 --> 01:11:43,672
Thank you, sir.
1043
01:11:58,608 --> 01:12:00,173
It's not selling.
1044
01:12:00,175 --> 01:12:03,605
4,000 orders the Empire through
and he won't go any quicker.
1045
01:12:03,607 --> 01:12:05,873
We're the laughing stock
of all academia.
1046
01:12:05,875 --> 01:12:09,838
I wonder if it's time to ease
our gentle Scotsman...
1047
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:12,640
off his little perch.
1048
01:12:37,107 --> 01:12:38,273
Stop it!
1049
01:12:38,275 --> 01:12:40,738
It'll be alright, they're good
kids.
1050
01:12:40,740 --> 01:12:42,774
We don't have to do it,
if you don't want to.
1051
01:12:44,775 --> 01:12:48,174
Look at me... William.
1052
01:12:50,074 --> 01:12:52,705
It'll be alright.
1053
01:12:52,707 --> 01:12:55,772
Children, I would like you
to meet a friend...
1054
01:12:55,774 --> 01:12:58,041
his name is William.
1055
01:13:00,274 --> 01:13:03,372
You must be Olive, is that
right?
1056
01:13:03,374 --> 01:13:04,807
Yes.
1057
01:13:07,374 --> 01:13:08,906
- Iris.
- Mm-hm.
1058
01:13:10,207 --> 01:13:14,774
Jack, and Peggy.
1059
01:13:17,107 --> 01:13:21,607
You must be Peter, it's good
to meet you, Peter.
1060
01:13:26,307 --> 01:13:28,141
And are you Clare, then?
1061
01:13:32,006 --> 01:13:33,607
Clare.
1062
01:13:37,740 --> 01:13:39,840
Truly I'm honored to meet you,
Clare.
1063
01:13:48,307 --> 01:13:49,974
Clare!
1064
01:13:51,107 --> 01:13:52,271
Clare!
1065
01:14:13,174 --> 01:14:18,204
Mr. Muncie. Watch them for me,
just for a moment.
1066
01:14:18,206 --> 01:14:19,939
Mm-hm.
1067
01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:27,304
Doctor! Wait! Wait! I'm sorry.
1068
01:14:27,306 --> 01:14:30,572
I never wanted that to happen.
I'm so sorry.
1069
01:14:36,006 --> 01:14:39,271
I remember being safe and still
I remember knowing who I was...
1070
01:14:39,273 --> 01:14:43,670
and I woke up and it had all
gone away, and I hated you...
1071
01:14:43,672 --> 01:14:48,204
so much, for so long, but now
I know you, I know who you are.
1072
01:14:48,206 --> 01:14:50,806
And I know the same has been
done to you.
1073
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:55,873
I wrote you something.
1074
01:15:10,706 --> 01:15:12,171
"I can"...
1075
01:15:12,173 --> 01:15:15,706
"I can... because of you."
1076
01:15:20,973 --> 01:15:23,739
I miss my husband.
1077
01:15:25,339 --> 01:15:29,304
I came here that first day
to hate you.
1078
01:15:29,306 --> 01:15:33,173
To take your money, watch you
locked away, see you done.
1079
01:15:36,140 --> 01:15:38,370
You should still hate me.
1080
01:15:38,372 --> 01:15:42,005
Not any more.
1081
01:16:33,105 --> 01:16:37,905
Look what you've done!
Look what you've done!
1082
01:17:02,239 --> 01:17:05,072
Not that many this time, sir.
1083
01:18:21,804 --> 01:18:27,937
I wrote you something.
No, read it when I've gone.
1084
01:18:34,637 --> 01:18:38,905
I'm sorry, Eliza.
1085
01:18:39,838 --> 01:18:43,604
But what if I'm not?
1086
01:19:38,137 --> 01:19:40,236
I have killed him again.
1087
01:19:40,238 --> 01:19:43,369
It's all your fault.
1088
01:19:43,371 --> 01:19:48,004
I've killed him again
in your heart!
1089
01:20:52,970 --> 01:20:55,170
Mr. Coleman!
1090
01:20:57,936 --> 01:20:59,970
You might alert the clinic.
1091
01:21:03,203 --> 01:21:05,170
I have injured myself.
1092
01:21:25,869 --> 01:21:30,201
"My Friend, I no
longer find I have the place...
1093
01:21:30,203 --> 01:21:33,834
for this, I thought you might
accept it.
1094
01:21:33,836 --> 01:21:36,933
Remember me by it.
1095
01:21:36,935 --> 01:21:39,900
As a testament to our
friendship and to that...
1096
01:21:39,902 --> 01:21:44,768
which we created together, in
the brief and fleeting time...
1097
01:21:44,770 --> 01:21:50,102
when thanks to you, I could
trust my mind... William.
1098
01:21:53,668 --> 01:21:56,666
Dr. Murray, Richard Brayn,
Superintendent.
1099
01:21:56,668 --> 01:21:58,934
Pleased to meet you, sir.
1100
01:21:58,936 --> 01:22:01,900
I am very proud of the
contributions that Dr. Minor...
1101
01:22:01,902 --> 01:22:03,100
has made, of course.
1102
01:22:03,102 --> 01:22:06,067
The illness has entered a new
phase. You may be shocked.
1103
01:22:06,069 --> 01:22:09,702
I should warn you, too, that he
may display some hostility.
1104
01:22:21,137 --> 01:22:22,800
You came.
1105
01:22:22,802 --> 01:22:25,200
Of course, I came.
1106
01:22:25,202 --> 01:22:27,668
I knew that you would.
1107
01:22:32,102 --> 01:22:36,768
Your God is very demanding.
1108
01:22:36,770 --> 01:22:39,935
A sacrifice was required.
1109
01:22:44,336 --> 01:22:46,034
I received your letter.
1110
01:22:46,036 --> 01:22:52,600
His love... his wife...
1111
01:22:52,602 --> 01:22:57,835
I stole her from the dead.
1112
01:23:01,302 --> 01:23:06,967
Have you gotten to the "I's"
by now?
1113
01:23:06,969 --> 01:23:12,167
I had some to add to your words.
1114
01:23:12,169 --> 01:23:16,100
But I can't seem to...
1115
01:23:16,102 --> 01:23:20,100
I can't seem to find my pens.
1116
01:23:20,102 --> 01:23:22,633
Our words, William, our words.
1117
01:23:22,635 --> 01:23:25,901
Perhaps that is true, perhaps...
1118
01:23:28,601 --> 01:23:33,902
madness... gave us words.
1119
01:23:37,336 --> 01:23:42,301
But you have made them yours,
they bear your secret signature.
1120
01:23:46,035 --> 01:23:50,732
Why did you come here?
1121
01:23:50,734 --> 01:23:52,632
Did you bring others?
1122
01:23:52,634 --> 01:23:53,933
I am alone, William.
1123
01:23:53,935 --> 01:23:59,299
I have reason to believe that
they are hiding...
1124
01:23:59,301 --> 01:24:04,302
between the spaces in the floor,
biding their time.
1125
01:24:07,268 --> 01:24:10,835
I'm sorry, James. I'm sorry.
1126
01:24:13,168 --> 01:24:16,033
For a moment, I...
1127
01:24:16,035 --> 01:24:20,935
dared to hope.
1128
01:24:22,268 --> 01:24:26,099
Your words, her... forgiveness.
1129
01:24:26,101 --> 01:24:29,932
It's more than forgiveness.
1130
01:24:29,934 --> 01:24:33,968
She... she gave me this.
1131
01:24:35,001 --> 01:24:38,699
Read it later, if you truly want
to know why.
1132
01:24:38,701 --> 01:24:41,199
Know what?
1133
01:24:41,201 --> 01:24:44,266
Assythment.
1134
01:24:44,268 --> 01:24:46,099
Assythment.
1135
01:24:46,101 --> 01:24:51,599
Assythment.
1136
01:24:51,601 --> 01:24:57,299
A quote, Austin, 1832.
1137
01:24:57,301 --> 01:25:03,199
I sent it in, but only hoping,
I wasn't sure, until now.
1138
01:25:03,201 --> 01:25:05,099
I can't... I can't remember
the quote.
1139
01:25:05,101 --> 01:25:08,901
Look it up! Look it up!
1140
01:25:13,700 --> 01:25:16,899
You have seen me now
and we're done.
1141
01:25:16,901 --> 01:25:21,299
You can leave the lunatic
to his delusions.
1142
01:25:21,301 --> 01:25:23,699
I came here to see my friend.
1143
01:25:23,701 --> 01:25:28,664
I am no man's friend,
I am a murderer.
1144
01:25:28,666 --> 01:25:31,298
Everything else is make believe.
1145
01:25:31,300 --> 01:25:35,798
So leave, leave, leave, leave,
leave, leave, leave...
1146
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:39,033
leave, leave, leave, leave,
leave, leave!
1147
01:25:39,035 --> 01:25:45,632
And do not come back! I do not
want to see you!
1148
01:25:45,634 --> 01:25:49,965
Please, doctor, if your claim
that you are my friend...
1149
01:25:49,967 --> 01:25:55,832
is true, you will respect
that one simple wish!
1150
01:25:55,834 --> 01:25:58,234
Yeah.
1151
01:26:02,134 --> 01:26:04,867
I think no more visitors
for Dr. Minor.
1152
01:26:09,134 --> 01:26:13,965
Bondmade, missing from Volume
One.
1153
01:26:13,967 --> 01:26:16,166
A perfectly solid, everyday
English word...
1154
01:26:16,168 --> 01:26:17,166
and we don't have it.
1155
01:26:17,168 --> 01:26:18,033
I don't know how that could
have happened...
1156
01:26:18,035 --> 01:26:19,932
I checked the proofs for it
myself.
1157
01:26:19,934 --> 01:26:21,598
The University of Vienna picked
up on it.
1158
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:23,065
The bloody Austrians, it's a
disgrace.
1159
01:26:23,067 --> 01:26:24,698
Calm down, Philip.
1160
01:26:24,700 --> 01:26:27,664
We'll catch it, we'll form
an addendum.
1161
01:26:27,666 --> 01:26:28,931
I've been meaning to discuss
that with all of you.
1162
01:26:28,933 --> 01:26:31,198
Are you intending to drop
others?
1163
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:35,998
The makers of this grand folly
also deign it beneath them...
1164
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,998
to include the nouns and
adjectives denoting countries.
1165
01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:43,165
Hence no mention of African,
Arabian, American and so on.
1166
01:26:43,167 --> 01:26:44,965
In the blasted Figaro!
1167
01:26:44,967 --> 01:26:47,298
In the same breath, expounding
the virtues...
1168
01:26:47,300 --> 01:26:48,798
of their competing dictionaries.
1169
01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:51,631
In France, Germany, the
Netherlands.
1170
01:26:51,633 --> 01:26:53,798
This is a war about the spread
of colonial language...
1171
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:55,765
not one with bullets and
bayonets...
1172
01:26:55,767 --> 01:26:57,298
but with influence and
appearance.
1173
01:26:57,300 --> 01:26:58,499
This is utterly absurd.
1174
01:26:58,501 --> 01:27:02,798
No, what is absurd is your
dogged, bullheaded approach...
1175
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:05,898
a superabundance of redundancy,
Dr. Murray.
1176
01:27:05,900 --> 01:27:06,931
We need your focus.
1177
01:27:06,933 --> 01:27:08,997
The language is escaping you,
you are losing.
1178
01:27:08,999 --> 01:27:12,165
What precisely are you saying,
Mr. Gell?
1179
01:27:12,167 --> 01:27:15,598
This is Oxford. We do not lose.
1180
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:17,164
Clearly the only course
remaining...
1181
01:27:17,166 --> 01:27:18,264
Bondmade.
1182
01:27:18,266 --> 01:27:19,432
What was that? Speak up,
Freddie.
1183
01:27:19,434 --> 01:27:25,065
Bondmade. I borrowed the proof
from the scriptorium...
1184
01:27:25,067 --> 01:27:26,298
to use in one of my lectures.
1185
01:27:26,300 --> 01:27:29,998
I forgot to replace it. I am
responsible for its exclusion.
1186
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,097
It doesn't change a thing.
1187
01:27:31,099 --> 01:27:34,964
Also the absence of African,
Arabian, and American.
1188
01:27:34,966 --> 01:27:36,864
I convinced James not to include
them.
1189
01:27:36,866 --> 01:27:40,765
So you see, gentlemen, you are
inculpating the wrong man.
1190
01:27:40,767 --> 01:27:45,264
You're right, Philip, there is
only one course of action.
1191
01:27:45,266 --> 01:27:48,332
I will resign my post from
the board of delegates.
1192
01:27:48,334 --> 01:27:51,065
We shall make an announcement
on it.
1193
01:27:51,067 --> 01:27:54,164
And the project will go on,
with James.
1194
01:27:54,166 --> 01:27:55,765
I really don't see how...
1195
01:27:55,767 --> 01:27:56,897
Philip, please!
1196
01:27:56,899 --> 01:27:59,766
Have it in writing to the Press
offices in the morning.
1197
01:28:01,234 --> 01:28:02,830
He's lying through his teeth.
1198
01:28:02,832 --> 01:28:03,965
Of course he is.
1199
01:28:03,967 --> 01:28:05,164
Then why let them get away
with it?
1200
01:28:05,166 --> 01:28:08,997
Didn't you see? Dr. Murray is a
breath away from shattering.
1201
01:28:08,999 --> 01:28:11,031
And without Furnivall's
meddling...
1202
01:28:11,033 --> 01:28:12,164
all we need do is wait.
1203
01:28:12,166 --> 01:28:15,364
Have a quiet word with Bradley,
I suspect he is just...
1204
01:28:15,366 --> 01:28:19,698
the ticket for a more malleable
pair of hands at the helm.
1205
01:28:35,066 --> 01:28:38,064
James... what's the matter?
1206
01:28:38,066 --> 01:28:43,766
I'm adrift, Ada. The day has
been one of loss.
1207
01:28:46,665 --> 01:28:48,797
I need to tell you some things.
1208
01:28:48,799 --> 01:28:51,364
Don't go on... what you've
done...
1209
01:28:51,366 --> 01:28:53,797
there is nothing you can tell me
to make this right!
1210
01:28:53,799 --> 01:28:55,964
All the wisdom, all the
diligence and you simply...
1211
01:28:55,966 --> 01:28:58,097
How long have you known about
his madness?
1212
01:28:58,099 --> 01:29:00,164
How much time have you spent
with this man?
1213
01:29:00,166 --> 01:29:02,964
Why are you so angry? What
difference can it possibly make?
1214
01:29:02,966 --> 01:29:05,797
His work on the dictionary
proves he is sane.
1215
01:29:05,799 --> 01:29:08,097
He fooled that jury and he
fooled you.
1216
01:29:08,099 --> 01:29:10,264
What about repentance, Ada?
What about redemption?
1217
01:29:10,266 --> 01:29:12,730
The delegates, your team,
your family...
1218
01:29:12,732 --> 01:29:14,330
we all deserve more than
to have it all...
1219
01:29:14,332 --> 01:29:16,265
Stop!
1220
01:29:18,699 --> 01:29:20,297
I could call into question
the morality...
1221
01:29:20,299 --> 01:29:23,729
of every invisible volunteer
we've ever leaned on.
1222
01:29:23,731 --> 01:29:25,764
This one hits his children,
that one's on the whiskey...
1223
01:29:25,766 --> 01:29:28,797
this one, didn't you hear, he
cheats on the Times crossword.
1224
01:29:28,799 --> 01:29:30,130
Remove the blaggard
from the list.
1225
01:29:30,132 --> 01:29:32,364
He is a murderer! He lied
to you.
1226
01:29:32,366 --> 01:29:36,631
Have you never lied?
Have you not?
1227
01:29:40,632 --> 01:29:44,996
What are you so afraid of, that
a bad man can be redeemed?
1228
01:29:44,998 --> 01:29:47,696
Isn't that what we believe, what
we whisper to our children...
1229
01:29:47,698 --> 01:29:50,330
at night, what we pray for?
Forgiveness.
1230
01:29:50,332 --> 01:29:53,130
I don't know who you're
preaching to.
1231
01:29:53,132 --> 01:29:54,265
Neither do I.
1232
01:29:56,931 --> 01:30:00,363
"Thus they in lowliest plight
repentant stood praying...
1233
01:30:00,365 --> 01:30:03,964
from the mercy seat above,
prevenient grace descending...
1234
01:30:03,966 --> 01:30:06,996
had removed the stony from their
hearts and made new flesh".
1235
01:30:06,998 --> 01:30:10,662
Milton, Paradise Lost,
prevenient grace, Ada.
1236
01:30:10,664 --> 01:30:13,030
From before the fall,
salvation for all...
1237
01:30:13,032 --> 01:30:14,831
if we choose to engage it.
1238
01:30:21,798 --> 01:30:24,696
"If love... then what?"
1239
01:30:24,698 --> 01:30:25,929
What is that?
1240
01:30:25,931 --> 01:30:31,065
A note, from the widow, asking
the question of the killer.
1241
01:30:49,297 --> 01:30:52,796
"Assythment - satisfaction
for an injury done.
1242
01:30:52,798 --> 01:30:56,130
Compensation, reparation,
indemnification.
1243
01:30:56,132 --> 01:30:58,629
By law, the wife and family
of the slain...
1244
01:30:58,631 --> 01:31:00,896
have still the right
for assythment."
1245
01:31:00,898 --> 01:31:02,195
I don't understand.
1246
01:31:02,197 --> 01:31:04,330
It means to pay everything back.
1247
01:31:04,332 --> 01:31:06,629
The guilty make recompense
the victim.
1248
01:31:06,631 --> 01:31:08,263
I thought he'd already given
her money.
1249
01:31:08,265 --> 01:31:12,596
No, Ada, his life, with his
life.
1250
01:31:12,598 --> 01:31:15,896
"If love... then what?"
1251
01:31:15,898 --> 01:31:20,762
Is what she wrote to him.
And his response.
1252
01:31:20,764 --> 01:31:24,132
"...then no chance redemption."
1253
01:31:26,831 --> 01:31:29,596
What are you going to do?
1254
01:31:29,598 --> 01:31:31,930
What can I do?
1255
01:31:36,597 --> 01:31:39,262
Sometimes when we push away...
1256
01:31:39,264 --> 01:31:44,265
that is when we most need
to be resisted.
1257
01:31:59,065 --> 01:32:02,062
Please, let me in, let me in!
1258
01:32:02,064 --> 01:32:04,662
I need to see him, let me in!
1259
01:32:04,664 --> 01:32:07,095
Mr. Muncie, please, I know you
can hear me, let me in!
1260
01:32:07,097 --> 01:32:08,595
I need to see him!
1261
01:32:21,597 --> 01:32:22,830
Let me in!
1262
01:32:24,897 --> 01:32:27,129
- Mrs. Merrett...
- I need to see him, please.
1263
01:32:27,131 --> 01:32:30,661
It is best you went away now
and you not come back.
1264
01:32:30,663 --> 01:32:31,661
Please, I need to see him.
1265
01:32:31,663 --> 01:32:33,229
Mrs. Merrett, I'm sorry.
1266
01:32:33,231 --> 01:32:36,095
Oh, I need to see him, please!
No!
1267
01:32:36,097 --> 01:32:41,595
I need to see him! Please!
1268
01:33:14,263 --> 01:33:16,329
It is time to
commence a course...
1269
01:33:16,331 --> 01:33:19,262
of more invasive and more
experimental treatments...
1270
01:33:19,264 --> 01:33:22,195
all procedures will be fully
documented.
1271
01:33:22,197 --> 01:33:28,063
William... are we ready?
1272
01:33:30,131 --> 01:33:32,562
Most rightfully so.
1273
01:33:35,662 --> 01:33:37,830
Thank you, doctor.
1274
01:33:39,330 --> 01:33:43,129
Secure his arms, all right,
here we go.
1275
01:33:43,131 --> 01:33:47,562
That's it. Steady. Good boy.
1276
01:33:50,797 --> 01:33:56,362
Come on, let's get him over.
Up you go. All right.
1277
01:33:56,364 --> 01:33:58,729
- Doctor, please bear with me.
- Yes.
1278
01:34:04,363 --> 01:34:10,097
All right, that's it, that's it.
Steady.
1279
01:34:12,064 --> 01:34:13,161
Again.
1280
01:34:13,163 --> 01:34:15,294
- Same again, sir.
- Oh, no.
1281
01:34:25,330 --> 01:34:26,596
Again.
1282
01:34:29,596 --> 01:34:30,929
Oh, yeah, we've got you.
1283
01:34:32,863 --> 01:34:34,030
Again.
1284
01:34:35,330 --> 01:34:38,963
- One more, sir, good boy.
- I asked first.
1285
01:34:44,662 --> 01:34:49,529
Up now, up now. Steady.
1286
01:34:51,828 --> 01:34:53,096
Once more.
1287
01:34:58,996 --> 01:35:01,230
- You've got them?
- Yes.
1288
01:35:12,262 --> 01:35:14,660
Mrs. Murray.
1289
01:35:14,662 --> 01:35:18,593
My name is Church, I'm with the
South London Chronicle.
1290
01:35:18,595 --> 01:35:20,861
May I speak with your husband,
ma'am?
1291
01:35:26,262 --> 01:35:28,659
The story runs
tomorrow, sir, everything...
1292
01:35:28,661 --> 01:35:31,161
you, the big book, the widow
Merrett.
1293
01:35:31,163 --> 01:35:34,094
There's nothing I can do
about it now.
1294
01:35:34,096 --> 01:35:36,962
I just wanted to give you
fair warning.
1295
01:35:42,263 --> 01:35:46,561
But these... I haven't given'em
to the paper.
1296
01:35:48,195 --> 01:35:51,129
I thought, maybe, you should
hold on to them.
1297
01:35:53,230 --> 01:35:55,895
It looks like he's in a bad way,
sir.
1298
01:36:04,762 --> 01:36:06,193
Mother!
1299
01:36:06,195 --> 01:36:08,928
No, no... go upstairs and play up
there.
1300
01:36:28,728 --> 01:36:29,928
James.
1301
01:36:40,795 --> 01:36:44,960
If I may say, sir, between you
and me, I've been concerned...
1302
01:36:44,962 --> 01:36:48,062
about some of Dr. Brayn's
medical techniques.
1303
01:36:51,962 --> 01:36:54,926
We had to take precautions.
1304
01:36:54,928 --> 01:37:01,227
William? It's James, William.
1305
01:37:01,229 --> 01:37:02,792
William.
1306
01:37:02,794 --> 01:37:06,060
It's no use, I'm afraid.
He's not here.
1307
01:37:06,062 --> 01:37:09,326
I don't know where he is,
but he's not here.
1308
01:37:15,295 --> 01:37:16,893
Wait for me outside.
1309
01:37:16,895 --> 01:37:18,760
Dr. Murray, I must ask that you
inform me...
1310
01:37:18,762 --> 01:37:20,693
before you pay a visit.
1311
01:37:20,695 --> 01:37:22,226
I came as soon as I knew.
1312
01:37:22,228 --> 01:37:25,626
Yes, but it's not a club, sir,
this is a medical facility.
1313
01:37:25,628 --> 01:37:27,327
Dr. Minor is a patient
in my care.
1314
01:37:27,329 --> 01:37:28,625
He is my friend, my brother.
1315
01:37:28,627 --> 01:37:29,658
Yes, he's my friend, as well.
1316
01:37:29,660 --> 01:37:32,093
And he's one of the bravest men
I have ever known.
1317
01:37:32,095 --> 01:37:35,760
However, this is severe
catalepsy.
1318
01:37:35,762 --> 01:37:36,892
It's a fair question...
1319
01:37:36,894 --> 01:37:40,129
whether or not the soul has
already left the vessel.
1320
01:37:41,794 --> 01:37:44,692
"Divided from himself and his
fair judgment...
1321
01:37:44,694 --> 01:37:50,593
without which we are pictures
or mere beasts."
1322
01:37:50,595 --> 01:37:53,028
How could this have happened?
1323
01:37:55,062 --> 01:37:57,060
I must ask you to leave
immediately.
1324
01:37:57,062 --> 01:37:58,860
No, he doesn't belong here,
not like this.
1325
01:37:58,862 --> 01:38:00,359
On the contrary, he does not
belong anywhere else.
1326
01:38:00,361 --> 01:38:01,959
Please allow us to get on
with our work.
1327
01:38:01,961 --> 01:38:05,658
We have a great deal to do.
It's alright, William.
1328
01:38:05,660 --> 01:38:08,926
Please! It's alright, William...
1329
01:38:08,928 --> 01:38:14,961
it's alright, William,
it's all right.
1330
01:38:17,161 --> 01:38:20,861
The last 400 years have been
defined by his quotes alone.
1331
01:38:22,927 --> 01:38:26,259
We were at our darkest moment.
He gave us life.
1332
01:38:26,261 --> 01:38:29,892
I'm asking for your help here,
Ben.
1333
01:38:29,894 --> 01:38:32,226
To tell the truth of what
he's done.
1334
01:38:32,228 --> 01:38:34,192
Let it be known, not this.
1335
01:38:34,194 --> 01:38:37,625
My only regret is that you did
not come forward...
1336
01:38:37,627 --> 01:38:38,859
with this much sooner.
1337
01:38:38,861 --> 01:38:42,759
What there is to be known has
already been said... right here.
1338
01:38:42,761 --> 01:38:44,026
Written. Didn't you see?
1339
01:38:44,028 --> 01:38:45,859
But this is the life of a man.
1340
01:38:45,861 --> 01:38:47,959
All that he is will end with him
in that place.
1341
01:38:47,961 --> 01:38:50,892
And he is where he should be.
1342
01:38:50,894 --> 01:38:52,859
What use an act
of pointless charity?
1343
01:38:52,861 --> 01:38:54,291
Then I resign.
1344
01:38:54,293 --> 01:38:57,191
There will be no need for such
theatrics.
1345
01:38:57,193 --> 01:39:00,092
William Minor will be struck
from all acknowledgments.
1346
01:39:00,094 --> 01:39:03,092
You are to be welcomed, for as
long as you like...
1347
01:39:03,094 --> 01:39:05,325
as a contributor to the
dictionary.
1348
01:39:05,327 --> 01:39:07,925
The editorship will pass
immediately to Bradley.
1349
01:39:07,927 --> 01:39:10,725
I will be proposing this at
an emergency meeting...
1350
01:39:10,727 --> 01:39:12,292
of the delegates this afternoon.
1351
01:39:12,294 --> 01:39:15,359
I do not expect any dissent.
1352
01:39:15,361 --> 01:39:17,226
I won't thieve any more
of your time.
1353
01:39:17,228 --> 01:39:19,061
Nor I yours.
1354
01:39:35,793 --> 01:39:36,991
Yes, sir?
1355
01:39:36,993 --> 01:39:40,626
Is the master of the house in?
1356
01:39:47,160 --> 01:39:52,724
James... is everything alright?
1357
01:39:52,726 --> 01:39:58,358
I'm sorry, Freddie, I didn't
know where else to go.
1358
01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:03,093
I've lost everything.
Everything is broken.
1359
01:40:07,826 --> 01:40:13,624
I wanted to document the history
of each and every thing.
1360
01:40:13,626 --> 01:40:17,025
To offer the world a book that
gives the meaning...
1361
01:40:17,027 --> 01:40:19,824
of everything in God's creation.
1362
01:40:19,826 --> 01:40:26,027
Or at least the English part of
it, but it has defeated me.
1363
01:40:28,060 --> 01:40:30,758
And now I've paid for it
with everything...
1364
01:40:30,760 --> 01:40:32,724
that ever meant anything to me.
1365
01:40:32,726 --> 01:40:36,791
You know, there is another book
that purports to do just that.
1366
01:40:36,793 --> 01:40:39,893
But it has already beaten you
to the punch.
1367
01:40:42,060 --> 01:40:46,559
Come with me. Come, I want to
show you something.
1368
01:40:47,792 --> 01:40:49,158
I need me dunnage.
1369
01:40:49,160 --> 01:40:52,193
What, with a sprat?
How'd you do that?
1370
01:40:53,960 --> 01:40:56,624
Dunnage? Sprat? Blag?
1371
01:40:56,626 --> 01:40:58,191
How many new words to replace
the old?
1372
01:40:58,193 --> 01:41:02,791
How many new words for things
that have yet to be imagined?
1373
01:41:02,793 --> 01:41:06,058
How many of them in your all
encompassing book?
1374
01:41:06,060 --> 01:41:09,325
No language can ever be
permanently the same, James.
1375
01:41:09,327 --> 01:41:11,991
Not if it springs forth
from life.
1376
01:41:11,993 --> 01:41:15,824
But how can the work be ended
if not ever completed?
1377
01:41:15,826 --> 01:41:20,257
You have given us its heart
along with a great jolt...
1378
01:41:20,259 --> 01:41:21,325
to begin the first few beats.
1379
01:41:21,327 --> 01:41:24,957
Generations after you will
continue this work...
1380
01:41:24,959 --> 01:41:28,924
because you have showed them
the way.
1381
01:41:28,926 --> 01:41:31,290
But it will never be completed.
1382
01:41:31,292 --> 01:41:32,724
Let it go.
1383
01:41:32,726 --> 01:41:36,057
Tend to yourself, leave the
project to me.
1384
01:41:36,059 --> 01:41:39,025
I have a few tricks for Jowett
and his lackey Gell...
1385
01:41:39,027 --> 01:41:41,692
that they have not considered
in their maneuvering.
1386
01:41:45,226 --> 01:41:46,992
Ada?
1387
01:41:48,026 --> 01:41:51,857
With Bradley in charge and the
University press...
1388
01:41:51,859 --> 01:41:54,723
firmly driving the endeavour,
we believe we can keep...
1389
01:41:54,725 --> 01:41:57,923
to our desired target of 704
pages a year...
1390
01:41:57,925 --> 01:41:59,357
doubling current sales
estimates.
1391
01:41:59,359 --> 01:42:01,024
Thank you, Mr. Gell.
1392
01:42:01,026 --> 01:42:03,723
Well, gentlemen, I believe we
are all now...
1393
01:42:03,725 --> 01:42:07,723
sufficiently informed to put
the motion to a vote.
1394
01:42:23,259 --> 01:42:26,790
I'm sorry my husband is unable
to attend.
1395
01:42:26,792 --> 01:42:29,990
I would like to ask permission
to say a few words in his stead.
1396
01:42:29,992 --> 01:42:31,590
Mrs. Murray, this is a closed
meeting.
1397
01:42:31,592 --> 01:42:32,857
I'm afraid you will have
to leave.
1398
01:42:32,859 --> 01:42:36,224
My family and I have given much
for the glory of the delegates..
1399
01:42:36,226 --> 01:42:39,823
Mr. Gell, I am certain they can
give a few moments...
1400
01:42:39,825 --> 01:42:41,623
of their time in return.
1401
01:42:41,625 --> 01:42:43,856
Of course, Mrs. Murray.
1402
01:42:43,858 --> 01:42:46,059
We are here to listen,
please, go ahead.
1403
01:42:50,859 --> 01:42:54,723
My husband has this silly,
little leather parchment.
1404
01:42:54,725 --> 01:43:00,892
On it, he's engraved a creed.
"Only a most diligent life."
1405
01:43:03,592 --> 01:43:07,023
Diligence. I looked it up,
in your dictionary.
1406
01:43:07,025 --> 01:43:10,057
Constant and earnest effort to
accomplish what is undertaken.
1407
01:43:10,059 --> 01:43:15,959
Persistence, application,
but also, toil, and pain.
1408
01:43:17,191 --> 01:43:18,889
Some of you think my husband
a fool.
1409
01:43:18,891 --> 01:43:21,590
Obstinate. Naive.
1410
01:43:21,592 --> 01:43:23,057
Driven to what he is by fear...
1411
01:43:23,059 --> 01:43:30,823
of what awaits us all on the
other side, but he isn't.
1412
01:43:30,825 --> 01:43:33,889
He sees the world, all of it,
with its myriad choices...
1413
01:43:33,891 --> 01:43:36,758
and he chooses to be what he is.
1414
01:43:41,325 --> 01:43:46,989
Yet, two such men found each
other in our time.
1415
01:43:46,991 --> 01:43:52,156
My husband and his friend, the
murderous madman.
1416
01:43:52,158 --> 01:43:58,758
Together they have given us
something extraordinary.
1417
01:44:00,591 --> 01:44:03,323
I am here to ask you to take
exception...
1418
01:44:03,325 --> 01:44:05,591
to our prevailing natures.
1419
01:44:07,658 --> 01:44:12,025
I'm here to ask you not to
punish them for it.
1420
01:44:16,624 --> 01:44:19,822
Bradley told me you quit.
1421
01:44:19,824 --> 01:44:22,256
I did what I could in there,
but they're a tough lot.
1422
01:44:22,258 --> 01:44:25,223
We're leaving this place.
We're going back to London.
1423
01:44:25,225 --> 01:44:27,789
The book, it is not just
yours to quit.
1424
01:44:27,791 --> 01:44:32,721
It is ours, remember? Mine, the
children's, countless others'.
1425
01:44:32,723 --> 01:44:36,591
And they can, James, if there
is love.
1426
01:44:38,958 --> 01:44:42,256
I know the answer now.
1427
01:44:42,258 --> 01:44:45,958
I know the answer to the widow's
question.
1428
01:44:50,691 --> 01:44:52,722
I want you to do something
for me.
1429
01:44:52,724 --> 01:44:53,955
I will.
1430
01:44:53,957 --> 01:45:00,056
I want you to go to her and look
her in the eyes.
1431
01:45:00,058 --> 01:45:04,222
And if you see forgiveness,
if you see love...
1432
01:45:04,224 --> 01:45:07,655
I want you to help your friend.
1433
01:45:07,657 --> 01:45:09,823
Yeah.
1434
01:45:19,358 --> 01:45:21,556
- Here, my man.
- Thank you, sir.
1435
01:45:30,691 --> 01:45:33,356
He gave me that the last time
I saw him.
1436
01:45:33,358 --> 01:45:35,123
The last time he was lucid.
1437
01:45:35,125 --> 01:45:40,122
They won't let me see him.
Can you make them let me in?
1438
01:45:40,124 --> 01:45:44,857
It's no use. He's not the same
as you remember.
1439
01:45:49,125 --> 01:45:53,923
If I've forgiven him, why should
they go on punishing him?
1440
01:45:55,224 --> 01:45:56,621
Thank you for seeing me...
1441
01:45:56,623 --> 01:45:57,955
at such short notice, Sir
Charles.
1442
01:45:57,957 --> 01:45:59,223
Freddie is an old friend.
1443
01:45:59,225 --> 01:46:01,788
I have to warn you though,
Mr. Murray...
1444
01:46:01,790 --> 01:46:03,188
the American murderer
is a scar...
1445
01:46:03,190 --> 01:46:04,988
perhaps one that is still
too fresh.
1446
01:46:04,990 --> 01:46:06,255
Perhaps this will heal it.
1447
01:46:06,257 --> 01:46:07,322
Hardly so.
1448
01:46:07,324 --> 01:46:10,621
Any politician espousing his
cause is certain...
1449
01:46:10,623 --> 01:46:13,788
to face public outrage, chances
of a pardon...
1450
01:46:13,790 --> 01:46:16,155
or a reprieve, are virtually
non-existent.
1451
01:46:16,157 --> 01:46:19,122
What price justice? What price
mercy?
1452
01:46:19,124 --> 01:46:23,222
Expensive to your first, cheap
but unpopular to your second.
1453
01:46:23,224 --> 01:46:28,588
Look here, levers can be pulled,
get you a hearing.
1454
01:46:28,590 --> 01:46:31,288
But if I were you, I would do
all I can to find out...
1455
01:46:31,290 --> 01:46:35,588
who will be called to it,
and I would stack the deck.
1456
01:46:58,890 --> 01:47:03,623
William? William, can you hear
me?
1457
01:47:03,989 --> 01:47:05,322
- Everybody out.
- It's James.
1458
01:47:05,324 --> 01:47:06,854
Everybody out.
1459
01:47:06,856 --> 01:47:09,687
William, you need to hear us.
Can you hear me?
1460
01:47:09,689 --> 01:47:10,921
I brought Mrs. Merrett to see
you.
1461
01:47:10,923 --> 01:47:12,221
Leave him be!
1462
01:47:12,223 --> 01:47:14,688
- She needs to talk, you need to...
- Leave him be!
1463
01:47:14,690 --> 01:47:19,689
With all due respect, sir,
leave them be!
1464
01:47:20,957 --> 01:47:25,555
William? William?
1465
01:47:26,757 --> 01:47:31,720
William, I'm here.
1466
01:47:31,722 --> 01:47:34,587
It's Eliza.
1467
01:47:34,589 --> 01:47:39,223
Do you remember, William?
"If love... then what?"
1468
01:47:41,989 --> 01:47:44,756
If love... then what, William?
1469
01:47:49,589 --> 01:47:56,522
If love... then love.
1470
01:48:00,957 --> 01:48:03,156
If love, then love.
1471
01:48:16,856 --> 01:48:18,256
Please stand.
1472
01:48:20,589 --> 01:48:22,887
Do you know why you are here,
Dr. Minor?
1473
01:48:22,889 --> 01:48:24,120
I do.
1474
01:48:24,122 --> 01:48:28,987
And in your opinion, Sergeant,
have the circumstances changed?
1475
01:48:28,989 --> 01:48:30,954
No, sir.
1476
01:48:30,956 --> 01:48:33,720
Under what conditions did he
enter catalepsy?
1477
01:48:33,722 --> 01:48:35,186
Documented procedures of
treatment.
1478
01:48:35,188 --> 01:48:36,354
With the patient's agreement?
1479
01:48:36,356 --> 01:48:40,054
Of course. Gentlemen, with
respect, the matter here...
1480
01:48:40,056 --> 01:48:41,187
begs a different question.
1481
01:48:41,189 --> 01:48:44,954
Where and into which hands would
misguided compassion...
1482
01:48:44,956 --> 01:48:49,256
release him, there is nowhere
else. This is his home.
1483
01:48:53,922 --> 01:48:54,987
Thank you, Mrs. Merrett.
1484
01:48:54,989 --> 01:48:58,021
Is there anything further you
would like to say?
1485
01:48:58,023 --> 01:48:59,954
Yes, I would.
1486
01:48:59,956 --> 01:49:04,719
My husband didn't deserve what
happened to him.
1487
01:49:04,721 --> 01:49:08,820
He worked hard. Kept his family
together.
1488
01:49:08,822 --> 01:49:12,986
Then one day he was gone, and
nothing could bring him back.
1489
01:49:12,988 --> 01:49:15,254
What happened to him isn't fair.
1490
01:49:20,956 --> 01:49:23,320
For a long time after he was
gone...
1491
01:49:23,322 --> 01:49:28,622
I didn't want to remember him,
not even what he looked like.
1492
01:49:30,621 --> 01:49:34,220
I want to say I'm sorry
about that.
1493
01:49:34,222 --> 01:49:36,521
He deserved more than that.
1494
01:49:41,188 --> 01:49:44,254
My husband was a sweet man, but
he could get angry, too.
1495
01:49:44,256 --> 01:49:47,719
Once he got so cross, he kicked
the heater...
1496
01:49:47,721 --> 01:49:50,853
'cause it weren't working,
he put his foot right through...
1497
01:49:50,855 --> 01:49:54,953
burnt it on the hot coals, he
was limping for weeks after.
1498
01:49:54,955 --> 01:49:57,353
One day he caught Jack behind
him, hopping along...
1499
01:49:57,355 --> 01:50:02,653
all hobbled and all, like him,
do you remember?
1500
01:50:02,655 --> 01:50:09,621
He looked at Jack, and he
started to laugh.
1501
01:50:10,688 --> 01:50:13,986
He laughed so hard hobbling,
he nearly fell over.
1502
01:50:13,988 --> 01:50:17,853
I think that's why he was often
so cross.
1503
01:50:17,855 --> 01:50:22,220
It's cause he wanted his babies,
you were all his babies...
1504
01:50:22,222 --> 01:50:25,755
he wanted them to make him
laugh.
1505
01:50:30,022 --> 01:50:34,320
I think if George was here now,
he'd think all this is unfair.
1506
01:50:34,322 --> 01:50:39,086
I think this would make him
angry.
1507
01:50:39,088 --> 01:50:42,053
He wouldn't have a lot of fancy
words to say about it.
1508
01:50:42,055 --> 01:50:46,588
But I know he would want it
to stop.
1509
01:50:52,787 --> 01:50:55,352
Sir, please, a moment of your
time.
1510
01:50:55,354 --> 01:50:58,020
I will deliver my report in two
days. You will know then.
1511
01:50:58,022 --> 01:51:00,219
We are not asking for your
full deliberation.
1512
01:51:00,221 --> 01:51:02,619
Just a hint at which way you
lean.
1513
01:51:02,621 --> 01:51:03,918
Release will be denied.
1514
01:51:03,920 --> 01:51:05,618
The particulars of his
treatment...
1515
01:51:05,620 --> 01:51:07,819
that have come to light are
troubling...
1516
01:51:07,821 --> 01:51:09,053
Is that not enough to...
1517
01:51:09,055 --> 01:51:12,252
But they are an indictment of
the entire criminally insane...
1518
01:51:12,254 --> 01:51:15,253
system of which this board is
not a competent judge.
1519
01:51:15,255 --> 01:51:17,320
Dr. Minor is a severely
disturbed man.
1520
01:51:17,322 --> 01:51:19,153
For his own safety, the
recommendation...
1521
01:51:19,155 --> 01:51:21,853
cannot be given to release him
into the open.
1522
01:51:21,855 --> 01:51:23,786
Sir, is there no other way?
1523
01:51:23,788 --> 01:51:26,586
Whatever you intend to do,
Dr. Murray, you have one day.
1524
01:51:26,588 --> 01:51:29,687
Then I have to submit my report.
1525
01:51:31,754 --> 01:51:34,219
We can try one last measure,
James.
1526
01:51:34,221 --> 01:51:38,121
But you had better be prepared
to lay it all on.
1527
01:51:38,588 --> 01:51:39,818
Your timing couldn't be worse.
1528
01:51:39,820 --> 01:51:41,785
An armed gang of Latvians have
holed up...
1529
01:51:41,787 --> 01:51:43,053
in a building on Sidney Street.
1530
01:51:43,055 --> 01:51:44,818
The Scots Guards have it
surrounded...
1531
01:51:44,820 --> 01:51:46,185
and the whole thing has
escalated into a siege.
1532
01:51:46,187 --> 01:51:49,887
A bloody disaster, and it's put
him in a foul mood.
1533
01:51:55,222 --> 01:51:56,920
Wait here.
1534
01:52:15,121 --> 01:52:19,154
I'm sorry, chaps, no go,
bad timing.
1535
01:52:28,787 --> 01:52:36,786
Sir? Sir? Mr. Churchill, please!
1536
01:52:38,321 --> 01:52:41,219
Forgive me, that was insolent.
1537
01:52:41,221 --> 01:52:49,085
I don't know you, sir. I don't
know the sort of man you are.
1538
01:52:49,087 --> 01:52:53,885
But the office you occupy
permits me to have desires...
1539
01:52:53,887 --> 01:52:56,351
as to the kind of man I would
want you to be.
1540
01:52:56,353 --> 01:52:59,718
Your decisions affect all the
lives of this land.
1541
01:52:59,720 --> 01:53:04,121
And I am here, standing before
you, for a single one.
1542
01:53:05,719 --> 01:53:11,218
A complicated, pained and soured
one, but a life nonetheless.
1543
01:53:11,220 --> 01:53:16,185
And therefore deserving and
worthy and precious.
1544
01:53:16,187 --> 01:53:20,651
If you believe, as I would have
you believe...
1545
01:53:20,653 --> 01:53:25,951
that every individual life
deserves its own chance...
1546
01:53:25,953 --> 01:53:29,851
please, hear what I have come
to say.
1547
01:53:29,853 --> 01:53:33,286
Please, sir? All right.
1548
01:53:39,953 --> 01:53:42,819
I suppose I did say
lay it all on.
1549
01:53:45,120 --> 01:53:46,953
Charles?
1550
01:53:51,652 --> 01:53:53,817
I will not release Dr. Minor.
1551
01:53:53,819 --> 01:53:55,985
The prime minister won't
countenance it.
1552
01:53:55,987 --> 01:53:58,151
The public won't stand for it.
1553
01:53:58,153 --> 01:54:00,318
Fortunately your lexicon
provides us with the means...
1554
01:54:00,320 --> 01:54:02,617
to conceal the unpalatable.
1555
01:54:02,619 --> 01:54:05,984
What I will do is deport
Dr. Minor.
1556
01:54:05,986 --> 01:54:07,817
I gather he has family
in Connecticut.
1557
01:54:07,819 --> 01:54:08,951
He does, sir.
1558
01:54:08,953 --> 01:54:10,684
I shall let the board know,
should he be released...
1559
01:54:10,686 --> 01:54:12,318
he is to be sent home.
1560
01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:15,650
Undesirable alien... let America
manage her errant son.
1561
01:54:15,652 --> 01:54:18,884
Settle this matter, Dr. Murray.
Go back to your work.
1562
01:54:18,886 --> 01:54:23,084
The nation has need of you, and
allow me to get back to mine.
1563
01:54:23,086 --> 01:54:25,884
Thank you, sir.
1564
01:54:25,886 --> 01:54:27,619
- Congratulations, doctor.
- Thank you, thank you.
1565
01:54:59,619 --> 01:55:02,018
May I introduce you to Freddie
Furnivall.
1566
01:55:02,020 --> 01:55:05,283
- It is an honor, doctor.
- That is impossible.
1567
01:55:05,285 --> 01:55:06,819
They're ready, sir.
1568
01:55:17,352 --> 01:55:19,283
Ah, wait a moment, please.
1569
01:55:19,285 --> 01:55:20,484
Yes, sir.
1570
01:55:20,486 --> 01:55:26,551
I'll be right here, William,
right over there. All right?
1571
01:55:31,719 --> 01:55:33,283
That's good, and
if you can hold on three...
1572
01:55:33,285 --> 01:55:37,017
one, two, three.
1573
01:55:45,753 --> 01:55:49,219
This is ours. Something to read
on the ship.
1574
01:55:52,885 --> 01:55:55,750
Does she know?
1575
01:55:55,752 --> 01:55:56,786
She does.
1576
01:55:58,319 --> 01:56:04,716
Tell her I... you'll tell her
then.
1577
01:56:04,718 --> 01:56:06,985
I will.
1578
01:56:28,085 --> 01:56:31,949
Have you seen the latest proof
of the front cover?
1579
01:56:31,951 --> 01:56:36,083
You see, the fortunate thing
about these awful people...
1580
01:56:36,085 --> 01:56:40,249
is they believe in the divine
right of rule of the monarch.
1581
01:56:40,251 --> 01:56:42,249
Their system falls to pieces if
they don't abide...
1582
01:56:42,251 --> 01:56:44,949
by its silly intricacies.
1583
01:56:44,951 --> 01:56:47,916
So, we use it against them.
1584
01:56:47,918 --> 01:56:49,783
Your book is safe, James.
1585
01:56:49,785 --> 01:56:52,149
You are safe at its helm for as
long as you wish...
1586
01:56:52,151 --> 01:56:57,018
or until you shuffle off this
mortal coil.
1587
01:56:59,817 --> 01:57:01,916
- Yes.
- What now?
1588
01:57:01,918 --> 01:57:05,216
Now and forever beyond, my dear
Gell...
1589
01:57:05,218 --> 01:57:09,182
Dr. Murray is the dictionary.
1590
01:57:09,184 --> 01:57:11,016
Perhaps you should consider
taking a rest.
1591
01:57:11,018 --> 01:57:15,783
I hear the South of France
is quite the place...
1592
01:57:15,785 --> 01:57:17,918
for recharging one's spirits.
1593
01:59:17,401 --> 01:59:22,401
