1
00:02:50,295 --> 00:02:53,173
Are you sure this isn't
too much for you, Agnes?

2
00:02:54,049 --> 00:02:55,425
We should have ordered the carriage.

3
00:02:55,508 --> 00:02:57,510
All my life, I have walked to church
on Easter morning.

4
00:02:57,594 --> 00:02:59,178
Why should I stop now?

5
00:02:59,262 --> 00:03:01,305
Because we're getting older.

6
00:03:01,389 --> 00:03:03,474
You may be getting older. I am not.

7
00:03:05,810 --> 00:03:07,144
How long will you be in Newport?

8
00:03:07,228 --> 00:03:08,729
Only a few days this time.

9
00:03:08,812 --> 00:03:12,191
Larry says the house is finished,
and I want to make sure that it is.

10
00:03:12,274 --> 00:03:14,818
Well, I hope it will take your mind
off that other business.

11
00:03:14,901 --> 00:03:16,444
I hate to see you upset.

12
00:03:16,528 --> 00:03:18,530
Nothing will take my mind off
that other business

13
00:03:18,613 --> 00:03:19,656
as you call it.

14
00:03:19,739 --> 00:03:21,616
As long as we have no box
at the Academy

15
00:03:21,699 --> 00:03:23,409
we are not in the front rank
of society

16
00:03:23,493 --> 00:03:24,744
whatever we may pretend.

17
00:03:24,827 --> 00:03:27,121
- That's what Carrie Astor says.
- Well, she should know.

18
00:03:27,205 --> 00:03:28,497
Her mother will have been consulted

19
00:03:28,581 --> 00:03:30,207
and she must have decided
to keep us out.

20
00:03:30,291 --> 00:03:33,127
The Academy must have a list
of applicants as long as your arm.

21
00:03:33,210 --> 00:03:34,795
And I'm sure
Mrs. Astor tried to help.

22
00:03:34,878 --> 00:03:36,713
Are you? I'm not.

23
00:03:40,884 --> 00:03:42,010
What do you see?

24
00:03:43,178 --> 00:03:45,889
I've forgotten
how beautiful Philadelphia was.

25
00:03:47,390 --> 00:03:48,850
I hope we're not going to be late.

26
00:03:49,184 --> 00:03:50,601
The church isn't far.

27
00:03:50,685 --> 00:03:52,228
So, you know it?

28
00:03:52,311 --> 00:03:54,564
When I was in school,
we'd visit for some events.

29
00:03:56,691 --> 00:03:58,776
It was nice
of Mr. Spring to invite us.

30
00:03:58,859 --> 00:04:01,111
I suppose none of this
is easy for them.

31
00:04:01,195 --> 00:04:02,363
'Course not

32
00:04:03,405 --> 00:04:04,948
But the Spring family has asked us

33
00:04:05,032 --> 00:04:07,534
to join them
in their grief for Easter.

34
00:04:07,617 --> 00:04:09,578
So that is what we shall do.

35
00:04:19,504 --> 00:04:20,755
<i>Apres vous, Monsieur.</i>

36
00:04:21,714 --> 00:04:25,050
Or should I say, "You first, Mister"?

37
00:04:26,010 --> 00:04:28,429
It does not offend me that
I am a source of humor to you all.

38
00:04:28,512 --> 00:04:31,557
I confess I would like to know
how long it must go on.

39
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,475
Until it stops making us smile.

40
00:04:33,558 --> 00:04:36,102
Mr. Borden pretended
to be French to get a job.

41
00:04:36,186 --> 00:04:37,479
Is that a crime?

42
00:04:37,562 --> 00:04:39,898
Not a crime, but quite a good joke.

43
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,859
If the Mistress can accept
that her chef is from Kansas

44
00:04:42,942 --> 00:04:43,985
surely we can.

45
00:04:44,068 --> 00:04:46,863
If she admits it at all,
I bet it's through gritted teeth.

46
00:04:47,321 --> 00:04:50,574
Or should we say,
<i>"Par les dents serrees?"</i>

47
00:04:58,915 --> 00:04:59,958
Hello.

48
00:05:00,876 --> 00:05:02,460
Miss Weber, isn't it?

49
00:05:02,544 --> 00:05:03,795
How do you know my name?

50
00:05:03,878 --> 00:05:05,255
I asked one of your footmen.

51
00:05:05,964 --> 00:05:07,173
I'm Jack Trotter.

52
00:05:07,257 --> 00:05:09,384
I work for Mrs. van Rhijn
across the street.

53
00:05:10,009 --> 00:05:11,928
Then happy Easter, Mr. Trotter.

54
00:05:13,846 --> 00:05:16,265
I was thinking you might like
to meet up some day.

55
00:05:16,348 --> 00:05:18,184
Maybe have a cup of coffee?

56
00:05:18,267 --> 00:05:21,145
- We're off to Newport tomorrow.
- For long?

57
00:05:21,228 --> 00:05:22,604
Only until next Monday.

58
00:05:22,688 --> 00:05:24,523
But we'll go back soon,
for the Season.

59
00:05:24,606 --> 00:05:25,857
Well, when you get home

60
00:05:25,941 --> 00:05:27,943
maybe we could arrange something
before you're gone again.

61
00:05:28,693 --> 00:05:29,736
I'd like that.

62
00:05:32,530 --> 00:05:34,949
How pretty they've made it.

63
00:05:35,033 --> 00:05:36,576
There's Mrs. Russell.

64
00:05:36,659 --> 00:05:38,744
Oh, happy Easter.

65
00:05:38,828 --> 00:05:40,496
- To all of you.
- Ada, come sit down.

66
00:05:45,834 --> 00:05:47,044
Agnes.

67
00:05:51,006 --> 00:05:52,215
- Lina.
- Ada.

68
00:06:00,974 --> 00:06:02,308
Oh, I meant to tell you

69
00:06:02,392 --> 00:06:04,519
I've had a letter
from Dashiell Montgomery.

70
00:06:04,602 --> 00:06:06,437
- How is he?
- Who is he?

71
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,773
- A nephew of my late husband.
- Arnold.

72
00:06:08,856 --> 00:06:10,399
Were you on first name terms?

73
00:06:10,483 --> 00:06:12,192
We weren't, and I was his wife.

74
00:06:12,276 --> 00:06:13,485
What's Dashiell up to?

75
00:06:13,569 --> 00:06:16,655
Well, it seems he tired of Washington
and has moved back to New York.

76
00:06:16,738 --> 00:06:18,240
With his daughter.

77
00:06:18,323 --> 00:06:19,491
Poor motherless girl.

78
00:06:20,075 --> 00:06:21,159
Motherless?

79
00:06:21,243 --> 00:06:23,578
Dashiell's wife died very young.

80
00:06:23,662 --> 00:06:25,830
Frances must be about 14 now.

81
00:06:25,914 --> 00:06:28,708
I'll invite them for some tea.
Maybe next Thursday.

82
00:06:28,791 --> 00:06:30,126
Not Thursday.

83
00:06:30,209 --> 00:06:31,335
Why not?

84
00:06:32,628 --> 00:06:36,966
No reason, really, but I'm usually
rather busy on Thursdays.

85
00:06:40,302 --> 00:06:44,598
As we celebrate the resurrection
of our savior

86
00:06:44,681 --> 00:06:48,810
we know the Lord is close
to the broken-hearted.

87
00:06:48,894 --> 00:06:52,105
And we pray for those
in our congregation

88
00:06:52,188 --> 00:06:55,983
the sick, the lonely, the bereaved.

89
00:06:56,067 --> 00:06:59,779
And we ask continued prayer
for Samuel Spring

90
00:07:00,613 --> 00:07:02,531
since the death of his wife and son

91
00:07:02,615 --> 00:07:06,785
who was blessed with two mothers,
one of whom is here today.

92
00:07:08,245 --> 00:07:10,080
Our prayers are with you all.

93
00:07:11,873 --> 00:07:15,001
Easter is a time of renewal.

94
00:07:16,127 --> 00:07:20,548
It is through the miracle of Easter
that our savior gives us new life.

95
00:07:20,632 --> 00:07:24,469
Today we declare our sublime
and unshaken faith

96
00:07:24,552 --> 00:07:27,930
that Christ did truly rise from death

97
00:07:28,014 --> 00:07:31,141
and that God, having raised him up

98
00:07:31,225 --> 00:07:34,436
shall also raise us up with him.

99
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:35,729
Please rise.

100
00:07:39,608 --> 00:07:44,279
Let us ask our god that our hearts
may be light with heavenly hope.

101
00:07:45,697 --> 00:07:47,824
It may not happen in this world

102
00:07:47,907 --> 00:07:51,202
but it will happen
in the sweet hereafter

103
00:07:51,285 --> 00:07:56,790
when we shall rise again
and be made like unto Christ

104
00:07:56,874 --> 00:08:00,044
in his eternal and glorious kingdom.

105
00:08:01,253 --> 00:08:03,797
- Amen.
- Amen.

106
00:08:10,929 --> 00:08:12,305
Lovely to have you.

107
00:08:13,014 --> 00:08:15,016
- Thank you. Happy Easter.
- Happy Easter to you.

108
00:08:15,933 --> 00:08:18,144
I thought he did well,
the new rector.

109
00:08:18,227 --> 00:08:20,104
He kept the sermon short,
which is something.

110
00:08:20,187 --> 00:08:22,481
Oh, look. He's over there.
Shall we say hello?

111
00:08:22,565 --> 00:08:23,857
You could leave it for another time.

112
00:08:23,941 --> 00:08:25,401
Excuse me.

113
00:08:26,944 --> 00:08:28,445
I know exactly who you are.

114
00:08:28,529 --> 00:08:30,530
Mrs. van Rhijn and Miss Brook.

115
00:08:30,614 --> 00:08:31,782
They have told me all about you.

116
00:08:31,865 --> 00:08:34,034
You mustn't believe
everything you hear.

117
00:08:34,117 --> 00:08:35,368
And this is our niece

118
00:08:35,452 --> 00:08:38,329
Miss Marian Brook
and Mrs. van Rhijn's son, Oscar.

119
00:08:38,413 --> 00:08:39,622
Pleasure.

120
00:08:39,706 --> 00:08:41,249
That was a lovely sermon.

121
00:08:41,332 --> 00:08:42,375
I hope so.

122
00:08:42,458 --> 00:08:44,919
Half the battle is not to put
the congregation to sleep.

123
00:08:46,504 --> 00:08:50,633
Mr. Russell,
I thought I might see you here.

124
00:08:50,716 --> 00:08:52,009
Happy Easter to you, Mr. Tritton.

125
00:08:52,092 --> 00:08:55,178
I hear you're having some
union difficulties in Pittsburgh.

126
00:08:55,262 --> 00:08:56,305
You could say that.

127
00:08:56,388 --> 00:08:59,683
I ask because we're going through
something similar in Cleveland

128
00:08:59,766 --> 00:09:02,602
and, of course,
Jay Gould is having trouble too.

129
00:09:02,686 --> 00:09:05,396
They say membership
of the Knights of Labor

130
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,273
is in the hundreds of thousands now.

131
00:09:07,357 --> 00:09:09,108
Never mind the Knights of Labor.

132
00:09:09,192 --> 00:09:11,068
We must deal with the steelworkers.

133
00:09:11,152 --> 00:09:13,446
They've elected a new leader,
a man called Henderson

134
00:09:13,529 --> 00:09:15,656
and I'm afraid he seems
to know what he's doing.

135
00:09:15,739 --> 00:09:19,576
The only thing worse than a union man
is a clever union man.

136
00:09:19,660 --> 00:09:22,537
We ought to get some of the owners
together, Gould, Morgan...

137
00:09:22,621 --> 00:09:24,498
Billy Vanderbilt, if he'd come.

138
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,958
- Shall we go?
- Of course.

139
00:09:27,542 --> 00:09:28,626
We'll be in touch.

140
00:09:29,794 --> 00:09:31,754
How are you settling into the City?

141
00:09:31,838 --> 00:09:34,215
Well, New York
is very different from Boston.

142
00:09:34,298 --> 00:09:35,508
It's the little things I miss.

143
00:09:35,591 --> 00:09:37,385
Old haunts, familiar food.

144
00:09:37,468 --> 00:09:39,303
New York cuisine
isn't meeting your standards?

145
00:09:39,387 --> 00:09:42,223
Quite the opposite,
though I am still searching

146
00:09:42,306 --> 00:09:44,683
for an authentic bowl
of New England clam chowder.

147
00:09:45,601 --> 00:09:47,186
Well, I hope you find it.

148
00:09:47,269 --> 00:09:48,478
But you're managing?

149
00:09:48,562 --> 00:09:52,816
I survived the Easter service today,
and my first wedding is this week.

150
00:09:52,899 --> 00:09:54,317
So, I feel I'm getting there.

151
00:09:54,401 --> 00:09:56,194
May we hear who is to be married?

152
00:09:57,070 --> 00:10:00,114
Miss Bingham and a Mr. Raikes.

153
00:10:00,198 --> 00:10:01,491
- Do you know them, by any chance?
- No.

154
00:10:01,574 --> 00:10:03,201
- A little.
- Not really.

155
00:10:05,453 --> 00:10:08,372
Oh, we should go. We mustn't keep
the rector all to ourselves.

156
00:10:08,455 --> 00:10:10,291
- Happy Easter.
- Happy Easter.

157
00:10:15,003 --> 00:10:16,963
Agnes, slow down.

158
00:10:17,047 --> 00:10:18,131
We're not in a race.

159
00:10:18,215 --> 00:10:21,259
Speak for yourself.
I couldn't get away fast enough.

160
00:10:21,343 --> 00:10:23,386
Mama, I think I'll say goodbye here.

161
00:10:24,053 --> 00:10:25,096
I need a cab.

162
00:10:25,179 --> 00:10:27,015
But you'll be back for dinner?

163
00:10:27,098 --> 00:10:28,141
I will.

164
00:10:38,692 --> 00:10:40,444
Are you going
to Mrs. Rutherfurd's ball?

165
00:10:40,527 --> 00:10:42,571
I'm quite surprised
I've been invited.

166
00:10:42,654 --> 00:10:43,905
With three bachelor sons?

167
00:10:43,989 --> 00:10:46,992
Mother says she'll have every heiress
in New York on the dance floor.

168
00:10:48,868 --> 00:10:50,745
I've been meaning to ask you
about your hat.

169
00:10:50,829 --> 00:10:51,996
Isn't it lovely?

170
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:53,831
How did you enjoy the service?

171
00:10:53,915 --> 00:10:55,500
I thought it was perfect.

172
00:10:59,086 --> 00:11:00,713
Yes, I do too.

173
00:11:19,897 --> 00:11:21,441
It's been six months.

174
00:11:23,609 --> 00:11:25,277
I should have written sooner

175
00:11:25,903 --> 00:11:27,488
as soon as I heard
you were looking for me

176
00:11:27,571 --> 00:11:31,325
but by then, they were gone,
and I wasn't thinking straight.

177
00:11:32,242 --> 00:11:33,744
It's good of you to come today.

178
00:11:34,953 --> 00:11:36,121
We wanted to.

179
00:11:37,164 --> 00:11:38,540
To learn about him.

180
00:11:42,335 --> 00:11:45,088
"A loved and loving little boy."

181
00:11:45,171 --> 00:11:46,547
And so he was.

182
00:11:48,257 --> 00:11:50,217
I wish I'd known him.

183
00:11:51,260 --> 00:11:53,179
You're coming home with me

184
00:11:53,262 --> 00:11:55,931
so I can show you his room
and his toys

185
00:11:56,015 --> 00:11:58,183
and maybe you'll feel
that you do know him a little.

186
00:11:58,934 --> 00:12:00,185
I hope so.

187
00:12:08,985 --> 00:12:10,236
Mother.

188
00:12:17,034 --> 00:12:18,869
Were we right to bring her here?

189
00:12:18,953 --> 00:12:22,122
She deserves the full story
of that short and dear life.

190
00:12:24,124 --> 00:12:26,752
Dorothy, please.

191
00:12:27,294 --> 00:12:29,963
You can't blame me for scarlet fever.

192
00:12:30,046 --> 00:12:32,841
I can blame you that we weren't here
before the fever struck.

193
00:12:34,259 --> 00:12:36,886
If you had contacted Mrs. Wade sooner

194
00:12:36,970 --> 00:12:39,472
our boy might be alive today.

195
00:13:03,870 --> 00:13:04,912
Hey.

196
00:13:05,663 --> 00:13:07,331
Give me another.

197
00:13:07,415 --> 00:13:08,624
We're celebrating!

198
00:13:10,418 --> 00:13:11,794
It's on him.

199
00:13:47,828 --> 00:13:49,162
Did he like the room?

200
00:13:57,670 --> 00:13:59,380
Did he enjoy his life?

201
00:13:59,464 --> 00:14:03,718
He was a happy child,
always laughing, always full of fun.

202
00:14:04,718 --> 00:14:06,554
We wouldn't have stopped you
seeing him.

203
00:14:06,637 --> 00:14:07,972
I hope you believe that.

204
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:10,057
Don't be too nice to me.

205
00:14:11,808 --> 00:14:13,644
I'd have taken him away.

206
00:14:14,603 --> 00:14:15,687
I'd have fought the adoption

207
00:14:15,770 --> 00:14:17,772
and I would've taken him
with me, if I could.

208
00:14:17,856 --> 00:14:20,608
I wish you had.
It might have saved him

209
00:14:20,692 --> 00:14:23,111
if you'd gotten him out of the city
before the fever came.

210
00:14:23,194 --> 00:14:26,364
Don't say that or we'll all go mad.

211
00:14:35,831 --> 00:14:36,874
Keep it.

212
00:14:37,708 --> 00:14:38,750
I mean it.

213
00:14:39,876 --> 00:14:41,962
He loved his bear.

214
00:14:43,338 --> 00:14:45,965
His mother should have
his favorite toy.

215
00:14:48,343 --> 00:14:49,802
His other mother.

216
00:14:50,678 --> 00:14:53,598
She loved him, you know, my Carlotta.

217
00:14:53,681 --> 00:14:56,517
She loved him, and she nursed him

218
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,727
and she caught the fever,
and she died with him.

219
00:15:00,145 --> 00:15:03,398
Shall we go downstairs
for our Easter dinner?

220
00:15:03,482 --> 00:15:05,150
I have a gift for you.

221
00:15:07,110 --> 00:15:10,030
Here's a photograph.
If it wouldn't be too painful.

222
00:15:11,072 --> 00:15:13,158
Don't you want to keep it?

223
00:15:13,241 --> 00:15:15,910
I have one of him taken later,
with my wife

224
00:15:15,994 --> 00:15:18,496
not long before they died,
just as I remember them.

225
00:15:19,622 --> 00:15:21,540
I appreciate your kindness.

226
00:15:22,208 --> 00:15:23,250
So do I.

227
00:15:23,959 --> 00:15:25,002
I mean it.

228
00:15:25,878 --> 00:15:27,296
We shared a child.

229
00:15:28,464 --> 00:15:31,508
A bond no one could even
try to understand.

230
00:15:32,509 --> 00:15:34,386
That's why we came.

231
00:15:35,387 --> 00:15:36,763
Please come to the table.

232
00:15:44,020 --> 00:15:45,396
Coming!

233
00:15:49,567 --> 00:15:50,609
Mrs. Scott.

234
00:15:50,693 --> 00:15:53,487
Slowly, girls.
The food's not going anywhere.

235
00:15:56,907 --> 00:15:58,742
Let's join hands, everyone.

236
00:15:59,618 --> 00:16:01,119
Mother, would you like to say grace?

237
00:16:06,374 --> 00:16:08,209
How was your service, Bridget?

238
00:16:08,293 --> 00:16:09,669
Or should I call it mass?

239
00:16:09,752 --> 00:16:11,421
Good. I like Saint Patrick's.

240
00:16:11,504 --> 00:16:13,339
The new cathedral
is a credit to the city.

241
00:16:13,422 --> 00:16:15,049
- I'll give you that.
- How was yours?

242
00:16:15,132 --> 00:16:16,175
I enjoyed it.

243
00:16:16,258 --> 00:16:18,636
With all the ladies showing off
the latest fashions.

244
00:16:18,719 --> 00:16:21,013
I'm not sure what that has to do
with holy worship.

245
00:16:21,972 --> 00:16:23,849
What were you saying to Miss Weber?

246
00:16:24,766 --> 00:16:25,892
When did you see her?

247
00:16:25,976 --> 00:16:28,186
She was at church
with the other Russell servants.

248
00:16:36,611 --> 00:16:38,946
Don't you ever get tired
of that wretched tapestry?

249
00:16:39,322 --> 00:16:42,408
You're like Penelope
waiting for Odysseus to get home.

250
00:16:42,491 --> 00:16:44,076
Aunt Ada likes her needlework.

251
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,244
I like ice cream.

252
00:16:45,327 --> 00:16:47,871
It doesn't mean
I eat it 24 hours a day.

253
00:16:49,456 --> 00:16:50,540
- You rang, ma'am?
- Yes.

254
00:16:50,624 --> 00:16:52,501
We can't wait
for Mr. Oscar any longer.

255
00:16:52,584 --> 00:16:55,670
I don't know what's happened to him,
but if you can tell Mrs. Bauer

256
00:16:55,754 --> 00:16:57,547
we'll have dinner
as soon as she's ready.

257
00:16:57,630 --> 00:16:59,007
Very good, ma'am.

258
00:17:01,551 --> 00:17:04,929
Oh, I expect that's him now.

259
00:17:08,766 --> 00:17:10,184
Oscar!

260
00:17:10,601 --> 00:17:11,894
- My God!
- Oscar, what happened?

261
00:17:11,977 --> 00:17:13,145
Who has done this?

262
00:17:13,228 --> 00:17:15,272
I'm sorry, I haven't changed,
I just...

263
00:17:16,148 --> 00:17:17,190
Oscar!

264
00:17:17,274 --> 00:17:19,359
Bannister, help me get Mr. Oscar
up to the Blue Room

265
00:17:19,443 --> 00:17:20,610
- and find an old nightshirt.
- Yes, ma'am.

266
00:17:20,694 --> 00:17:22,862
Marian, send John for Dr. Lewis.

267
00:17:22,946 --> 00:17:24,406
Ada, do we have
any bandages or salves?

268
00:17:24,489 --> 00:17:26,950
Oh, yes,
I think they're in the kitchen.

269
00:17:27,033 --> 00:17:28,660
I'll fetch them.

270
00:17:28,743 --> 00:17:30,328
Can you see?

271
00:17:32,997 --> 00:17:34,332
John!

272
00:17:34,415 --> 00:17:36,125
- Yes?
- Fetch Dr. Lewis!

273
00:17:36,208 --> 00:17:38,168
And when you've done that,
go to Mr. Oscar's rooms

274
00:17:38,252 --> 00:17:39,962
and tell his man to give you
what he'll need for tonight.

275
00:17:40,045 --> 00:17:42,172
- Why? What happened?
- Mr. Oscar has been attacked.

276
00:17:42,256 --> 00:17:43,548
- What?
- I need whatever bandages

277
00:17:43,632 --> 00:17:45,759
- and creams we have here.
- I know where they are.

278
00:17:45,842 --> 00:17:47,344
- What do you mean attacked?
- What I said.

279
00:17:47,427 --> 00:17:49,346
He's been beaten
and, I dare say, robbed.

280
00:17:50,138 --> 00:17:51,181
Here we are.

281
00:17:57,019 --> 00:17:58,437
How are you feeling?

282
00:17:58,521 --> 00:18:00,272
Much better. Thank you.

283
00:18:00,356 --> 00:18:01,816
Then we must send for the police.

284
00:18:01,899 --> 00:18:03,984
No! No, not the police.

285
00:18:04,068 --> 00:18:07,154
Why not? When you've been
set upon in the street?

286
00:18:07,237 --> 00:18:08,405
I have nothing to tell them.

287
00:18:08,489 --> 00:18:10,866
I didn't see his face.
It all happened so fast.

288
00:18:10,949 --> 00:18:12,909
And I don't want
to be a story in the papers.

289
00:18:12,993 --> 00:18:17,080
Well, I can understand that.
If you really have no evidence.

290
00:18:17,163 --> 00:18:19,374
My mind is a complete blank.

291
00:18:19,457 --> 00:18:21,542
And you did nothing to provoke him?

292
00:18:21,626 --> 00:18:22,710
Why do you say such a thing?

293
00:18:22,794 --> 00:18:23,836
Because I know you.

294
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,088
I've watched you
be reckless and rude.

295
00:18:26,172 --> 00:18:27,882
Why were you
walking the streets anyway?

296
00:18:27,965 --> 00:18:29,633
Why didn't you hail a cab?

297
00:18:30,509 --> 00:18:32,219
That'll be Dr. Lewis.

298
00:18:32,302 --> 00:18:33,637
I'll go down.

299
00:18:36,139 --> 00:18:37,516
She's just upset.

300
00:18:43,146 --> 00:18:45,106
What you need is rest.

301
00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:47,191
When Dr. Lewis has gone,
try to sleep.

302
00:18:48,067 --> 00:18:50,820
Ring the bell if you need something
in the night. I'll hear it.

303
00:18:52,196 --> 00:18:53,614
You've missed your vocation.

304
00:19:01,538 --> 00:19:03,498
- How is he?
- Settled.

305
00:19:04,207 --> 00:19:06,209
But you were right
about his needing sleep.

306
00:19:06,293 --> 00:19:08,461
He'll feel better in the morning.

307
00:19:08,545 --> 00:19:09,796
What a business.

308
00:19:09,879 --> 00:19:14,258
Yes, but I really came in
to ask how you were feeling.

309
00:19:15,343 --> 00:19:18,054
- What do you mean?
- When the new rector told us

310
00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:19,555
about Mr. Raikes's marriage...

311
00:19:20,139 --> 00:19:22,641
Oh, that.

312
00:19:26,353 --> 00:19:27,855
It was a little bit of a shock.

313
00:19:27,938 --> 00:19:29,690
But I'm fine.

314
00:19:31,233 --> 00:19:32,609
- Or I will be.
- Good.

315
00:19:33,109 --> 00:19:35,403
Because you have so much
to look forward to.

316
00:19:35,487 --> 00:19:36,863
I'm sure of it.

317
00:19:43,703 --> 00:19:45,162
I did love him.

318
00:19:47,790 --> 00:19:50,084
I'm glad that you use the past tense.

319
00:19:50,417 --> 00:19:53,420
It helps to accept that a thing
is finished and done with.

320
00:19:56,006 --> 00:19:57,466
The question is...

321
00:19:59,676 --> 00:20:00,969
what's next?

322
00:20:01,052 --> 00:20:02,512
The right man will come along.

323
00:20:02,595 --> 00:20:05,056
But I don't just want a husband,
Aunt Ada.

324
00:20:06,015 --> 00:20:07,642
And anyway,
who says he'll come along?

325
00:20:07,725 --> 00:20:08,893
He doesn't always.

326
00:20:09,936 --> 00:20:11,187
That's true.

327
00:20:11,270 --> 00:20:12,563
He never came for me.

328
00:20:13,856 --> 00:20:16,692
But I was very shy
when I was your age

329
00:20:16,775 --> 00:20:19,069
with so much less to offer.

330
00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:23,365
It would have taken someone rare
to look inside my shell.

331
00:20:24,116 --> 00:20:25,909
If he didn't, it was his loss.

332
00:20:28,161 --> 00:20:30,163
- Good night.
- Good night.

333
00:20:31,456 --> 00:20:32,749
Sleep well...

334
00:20:33,750 --> 00:20:37,420
and dream of all the wonderful things
that are waiting to happen.

335
00:21:07,448 --> 00:21:09,241
How did you know my size?

336
00:21:09,325 --> 00:21:10,826
Mr. White was the one who found it.

337
00:21:10,909 --> 00:21:12,202
Are you familiar with the house?

338
00:21:12,286 --> 00:21:15,539
Not really.
It was built about 30 years ago

339
00:21:15,622 --> 00:21:18,917
and I believe it was quite social
at the start.

340
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,462
But for the past decade,
it was owned by a quiet old lady

341
00:21:22,545 --> 00:21:24,923
from Milwaukee,
who did not entertain.

342
00:21:25,006 --> 00:21:26,049
So, for most people here

343
00:21:26,132 --> 00:21:27,842
it's going to be a new house
on their rounds?

344
00:21:27,925 --> 00:21:29,427
Indeed it will.

345
00:21:30,553 --> 00:21:32,263
I hope you don't think
I'm rushing things.

346
00:21:32,346 --> 00:21:34,640
I do not. You conquered New York.

347
00:21:34,723 --> 00:21:36,809
Now it's time to conquer Newport.

348
00:21:36,892 --> 00:21:38,644
But I haven't conquered New York.

349
00:21:38,727 --> 00:21:41,063
What? You go everywhere.

350
00:21:41,146 --> 00:21:43,356
You dine in the best houses.

351
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,568
You have a pew opposite the Astors
at St. Thomas.

352
00:21:46,651 --> 00:21:47,902
But I haven't got a box at the opera.

353
00:21:47,986 --> 00:21:49,362
The Academy
has turned us down again.

354
00:21:50,405 --> 00:21:52,281
They can be very trying.

355
00:21:52,365 --> 00:21:54,617
Mrs. Astor can be very trying.
She must have known.

356
00:21:54,700 --> 00:21:56,327
Did she tell you
they were keeping us out?

357
00:22:00,247 --> 00:22:02,583
Do you think the new
Metropolitan Opera will succeed?

358
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:07,462
The members of the Academy
are very determined it should not.

359
00:22:07,546 --> 00:22:09,172
And if you jump that way

360
00:22:09,256 --> 00:22:11,258
you'll never take Mrs. Astor
with you.

361
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,302
My advice would be to stick with her.

362
00:22:14,386 --> 00:22:16,763
She'll get you into the Academy
in the end.

363
00:22:16,846 --> 00:22:18,973
I'm not much good at in the end.

364
00:22:19,057 --> 00:22:20,641
Besides,
nothing stays the same forever

365
00:22:20,725 --> 00:22:23,311
and I can't always be
at Mrs. Astor's beck and call.

366
00:22:23,394 --> 00:22:25,729
Why not? I am.

367
00:22:25,813 --> 00:22:27,147
Aren't you coming in?

368
00:22:33,695 --> 00:22:35,947
You see we've increased
the space in here

369
00:22:36,031 --> 00:22:37,491
and changed the angle of the light.

370
00:22:37,574 --> 00:22:39,492
It's splendid.

371
00:22:39,576 --> 00:22:41,286
My son is a genius.

372
00:22:43,121 --> 00:22:45,123
We can use this room
for entertaining.

373
00:22:46,207 --> 00:22:48,543
And come,
look into the old library next.

374
00:22:48,626 --> 00:22:50,294
It's worked even better
than I thought.

375
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,007
You have done well, Larry.

376
00:22:55,090 --> 00:22:56,258
What will you do now?

377
00:22:56,342 --> 00:22:58,677
I expect I'll go to New York
and look for some work.

378
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,013
I may have something to suggest
in that department.

379
00:23:02,097 --> 00:23:06,059
There is a widow, here in Newport,
who is planning some alterations

380
00:23:06,142 --> 00:23:09,437
and additions to her house,
a Mrs. Richard Blane.

381
00:23:09,896 --> 00:23:10,939
She's here?

382
00:23:11,022 --> 00:23:12,482
Out of season? Why?

383
00:23:12,565 --> 00:23:16,944
She decided to live in Newport
after her husband's death.

384
00:23:17,028 --> 00:23:19,196
Has she been alone for many years?

385
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,991
He died about 18 months ago.

386
00:23:22,074 --> 00:23:23,909
It seems rather soon
for her to build.

387
00:23:23,992 --> 00:23:25,327
Isn't she still in mourning?

388
00:23:25,410 --> 00:23:26,703
Not exactly.

389
00:23:26,787 --> 00:23:30,415
But then the late Mr. Blane
was a good deal older.

390
00:23:30,499 --> 00:23:32,626
You mean she's glad to be rid of him?

391
00:23:33,543 --> 00:23:38,047
Well, she's glad to spend the money
that he guarded like a hyena.

392
00:23:39,590 --> 00:23:41,384
I'm very grateful, Mr. McAllister.

393
00:23:41,467 --> 00:23:44,637
You haven't met her yet.
But I think it could be managed.

394
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,931
- And you'd be in town all summer.
- Mr. Russell.

395
00:23:47,014 --> 00:23:49,391
I'm just going up to check
the bedrooms before you see them.

396
00:23:53,186 --> 00:23:55,063
Tell me more about Mrs. Blane.

397
00:23:56,022 --> 00:23:57,357
If you insist.

398
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,026
She was penniless
and in a tricky situation

399
00:24:00,110 --> 00:24:01,986
when she met Mr. Blane.

400
00:24:02,070 --> 00:24:05,615
I do not believe she thought
he'd survive for 20 years.

401
00:24:05,698 --> 00:24:08,117
Well, why didn't she go back
to New York?

402
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,287
Newport allows her more freedom.

403
00:24:20,212 --> 00:24:22,923
Oh, are you hungry?

404
00:24:23,006 --> 00:24:24,341
Dinner won't be long.

405
00:24:25,175 --> 00:24:26,843
Have you been crying again?

406
00:24:27,510 --> 00:24:29,053
Thinking about your father.

407
00:24:29,137 --> 00:24:30,805
We can't keep torturing ourselves.

408
00:24:30,888 --> 00:24:33,224
I was thinking about
the first time I ever met him.

409
00:24:35,518 --> 00:24:36,852
He saved my life.

410
00:24:37,770 --> 00:24:39,855
Did I ever tell you about it?

411
00:24:39,939 --> 00:24:40,981
No.

412
00:24:42,566 --> 00:24:44,193
I was walking home from church

413
00:24:44,276 --> 00:24:48,780
and two men started following me,
taunting me.

414
00:24:48,864 --> 00:24:50,365
- White men?
- Yes.

415
00:24:52,075 --> 00:24:55,703
And I rounded a corner,
hoping to find somewhere to hide.

416
00:24:55,787 --> 00:24:58,414
And I practically ran
right into your father's arms.

417
00:24:58,498 --> 00:24:59,832
Thank heavens.

418
00:25:01,125 --> 00:25:05,671
When the two men caught up with me,
Arthur stared them down.

419
00:25:07,798 --> 00:25:10,509
He didn't have to say a word,
and they ran off.

420
00:25:12,761 --> 00:25:16,556
Your father later told me
that he saw what they were doing

421
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,934
and wanted to make sure
that I got home unscathed.

422
00:25:21,436 --> 00:25:22,937
I never knew that.

423
00:25:26,232 --> 00:25:29,110
I always felt so safe with Arthur.

424
00:25:32,821 --> 00:25:37,242
You sleep in a man's arms for years
and you think you know him, but...

425
00:25:41,830 --> 00:25:43,123
There you are.

426
00:25:49,253 --> 00:25:51,005
Dinner must be ready now.

427
00:25:55,259 --> 00:25:57,761
How did you hear
about my contretemps?

428
00:25:57,845 --> 00:25:59,555
Aurora Fane told me.

429
00:26:01,724 --> 00:26:03,934
Does your presence here
mean we're friends again?

430
00:26:04,935 --> 00:26:06,978
Oscar, you and I have known
each other far too long

431
00:26:07,062 --> 00:26:09,147
and much too well not to be friends.

432
00:26:09,231 --> 00:26:11,566
If that is the case, I'm delighted.

433
00:26:13,651 --> 00:26:14,944
Good.

434
00:26:16,029 --> 00:26:18,156
Now will you tell me
what really happened?

435
00:26:19,157 --> 00:26:20,575
Nothing much.

436
00:26:26,622 --> 00:26:29,625
I saw you at church that morning,
by the way

437
00:26:29,708 --> 00:26:32,919
with someone tall
and dark and handsome.

438
00:26:33,003 --> 00:26:34,212
Tell me.

439
00:26:36,590 --> 00:26:40,301
I met a guy in a bar, and he said
he had somewhere we could go.

440
00:26:40,385 --> 00:26:42,053
And so he took you into a dark alley

441
00:26:42,136 --> 00:26:43,221
and he beat you to a pulp

442
00:26:43,304 --> 00:26:44,680
and he stole your wallet
and your watch.

443
00:26:44,764 --> 00:26:46,224
He didn't take my watch.

444
00:26:46,933 --> 00:26:48,184
I don't know why not.

445
00:26:48,267 --> 00:26:49,310
How long will this go on?

446
00:26:49,393 --> 00:26:51,562
You can't keep
putting yourself in danger.

447
00:26:52,563 --> 00:26:55,858
I'm starting to think
you may have a point.

448
00:26:55,941 --> 00:26:57,276
Meaning?

449
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,321
I wonder if it isn't time I began
to live a more grown-up life.

450
00:27:01,404 --> 00:27:04,074
Don't tell me this heralds
the arrival of Oscar van Rhijn

451
00:27:04,157 --> 00:27:06,576
family man and pillar of Society?

452
00:27:06,659 --> 00:27:09,162
His entrance is rather overdue.

453
00:27:09,245 --> 00:27:12,290
You do know you would be asking
a very great deal of yourself?

454
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,503
No more than thousands of other men
have asked before me.

455
00:27:17,586 --> 00:27:20,214
No more than you will ask
of yourself one day.

456
00:27:20,297 --> 00:27:21,340
Not me.

457
00:27:22,257 --> 00:27:26,386
I've no desire to lock who I am
in a box and throw away the key.

458
00:27:26,470 --> 00:27:28,054
I don't think I could, anyway.

459
00:27:28,138 --> 00:27:29,681
Then what will your life be?

460
00:27:29,764 --> 00:27:32,267
Friendship, companionship,
perhaps something more

461
00:27:32,350 --> 00:27:35,103
if I can learn to live
with a little discretion.

462
00:27:35,186 --> 00:27:36,687
It's still a life of lies.

463
00:27:36,771 --> 00:27:38,940
But I won't be lying to myself.

464
00:27:40,232 --> 00:27:42,735
It's different for you.
You've got brothers.

465
00:27:42,818 --> 00:27:46,238
I am the torchbearer
of the House of van Rhijn.

466
00:27:49,575 --> 00:27:50,867
Don't hate me.

467
00:27:52,702 --> 00:27:54,579
I will never hate you.

468
00:28:01,377 --> 00:28:04,005
Mrs. Bauer thought you might both
like some coffee, sir.

469
00:28:04,088 --> 00:28:06,132
Oh, please thank her.

470
00:28:10,302 --> 00:28:12,179
Oh, we'll manage for ourselves.

471
00:28:17,726 --> 00:28:19,352
Did she see anything?

472
00:28:19,436 --> 00:28:21,104
There wasn't a lot to see.

473
00:28:32,865 --> 00:28:34,325
Would you like anything else?

474
00:28:34,408 --> 00:28:35,993
Just coffee, thank you.

475
00:28:36,076 --> 00:28:37,953
It's good of you to make time for me.

476
00:28:38,037 --> 00:28:40,539
Not at all, but I assume
you've come here on a mission.

477
00:28:40,622 --> 00:28:41,832
And you're right.

478
00:28:42,624 --> 00:28:44,960
I hope it wasn't indiscreet of him

479
00:28:45,043 --> 00:28:48,421
but our friend, Mr. McAllister,
seems to think that you're unhappy

480
00:28:48,505 --> 00:28:51,049
that the Academy
has failed to find a box for you.

481
00:28:51,132 --> 00:28:52,759
When one became available.

482
00:28:53,676 --> 00:28:56,804
But there are people on that list
who have waited forever.

483
00:28:58,014 --> 00:28:59,265
Your day will come, my dear.

484
00:29:00,057 --> 00:29:04,853
And the Academy of Music has served
New York Society for 30 years.

485
00:29:04,937 --> 00:29:06,855
Have they not earned our loyalty?

486
00:29:06,939 --> 00:29:09,983
Yours maybe, but not mine,
not when they won't let me in.

487
00:29:10,067 --> 00:29:11,109
Why didn't they see this coming

488
00:29:11,193 --> 00:29:12,986
and build more boxes
when there was still time?

489
00:29:13,528 --> 00:29:15,447
The Academy has been short-sighted.

490
00:29:15,530 --> 00:29:17,407
I'm told there are 120 boxes

491
00:29:17,490 --> 00:29:19,242
in the new Metropolitan Opera House.

492
00:29:20,618 --> 00:29:22,578
They can't want it to be exclusive.

493
00:29:22,662 --> 00:29:25,331
They'll fill them though with so many
new people in the city now.

494
00:29:27,166 --> 00:29:31,086
Mrs. Russell, you must know
how very proud I am

495
00:29:31,170 --> 00:29:32,963
of your success in New York.

496
00:29:33,046 --> 00:29:34,506
- That's generous.
- No, I mean it.

497
00:29:34,590 --> 00:29:38,802
You worked to be accepted,
and I do hope that I was a help.

498
00:29:39,970 --> 00:29:42,263
You wouldn't want
to throw that all away

499
00:29:42,347 --> 00:29:45,183
and find yourself back
where you started, out on your ear?

500
00:29:45,266 --> 00:29:48,478
I suppose I'd like to go
where I am valued.

501
00:29:48,561 --> 00:29:49,729
Where people are friendly.

502
00:29:49,812 --> 00:29:52,982
Well, the audience at the new
opera house will be easy to meet

503
00:29:53,649 --> 00:29:56,110
but you'll find
that they are hard to get rid of.

504
00:29:58,696 --> 00:30:01,198
Why don't I give a dinner
of opera enthusiasts

505
00:30:01,281 --> 00:30:02,532
so we can discuss the whole subject?

506
00:30:02,616 --> 00:30:04,993
- Would you come?
- May I see a list of the guests?

507
00:30:05,076 --> 00:30:06,203
When I have one.

508
00:30:06,286 --> 00:30:07,954
But give me a date that works first.

509
00:30:08,038 --> 00:30:09,706
I need you there to be my guide.

510
00:30:10,748 --> 00:30:13,126
I shall take it very seriously.

511
00:30:13,209 --> 00:30:15,461
I wouldn't like to see you
pay the price

512
00:30:15,545 --> 00:30:17,213
for backing the losing side.

513
00:30:17,296 --> 00:30:19,465
Well, you're right
about one thing, Mrs. Astor.

514
00:30:19,548 --> 00:30:22,051
I certainly intend to find myself
on the winning side.

515
00:30:26,180 --> 00:30:29,599
Hiding his picture away
won't get rid of the pain.

516
00:30:29,683 --> 00:30:32,853
Of course not, but do you want
a daily reminder?

517
00:30:32,936 --> 00:30:35,939
Arthur, we had a grandchild.

518
00:30:36,523 --> 00:30:38,733
His photograph belongs
with the pictures

519
00:30:38,816 --> 00:30:41,986
of your parents and mine
and all the rest of them.

520
00:30:42,069 --> 00:30:44,030
They're dead,
but they're still our family!

521
00:30:44,113 --> 00:30:47,032
All right! You want me to say it?
I was wrong!

522
00:30:47,116 --> 00:30:49,451
I thought I was right,
but I was wrong!

523
00:30:49,535 --> 00:30:51,412
We should have kept the boy!

524
00:30:56,416 --> 00:30:58,835
There! Are you satisfied?

525
00:30:58,919 --> 00:31:02,338
How can I be satisfied?

526
00:31:02,422 --> 00:31:04,465
My grandson is dead.

527
00:31:11,430 --> 00:31:13,390
We saved you some dinner.

528
00:31:15,309 --> 00:31:16,769
I'm not hungry.

529
00:31:19,396 --> 00:31:22,190
He looks so much like you
at that age.

530
00:31:25,110 --> 00:31:27,487
Shall we keep it in here?

531
00:31:32,533 --> 00:31:34,118
I don't think so.

532
00:31:34,660 --> 00:31:36,287
I'll have it in my room.

533
00:31:38,914 --> 00:31:41,542
She doesn't want it on display,
Dorothy.

534
00:31:41,625 --> 00:31:43,168
She doesn't, or you don't?

535
00:31:45,379 --> 00:31:47,464
I lie awake at night

536
00:31:47,547 --> 00:31:51,343
thinking about how I should
have done things differently.

537
00:31:52,677 --> 00:31:53,928
I'm sorry.

538
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,765
That's all I can say.

539
00:31:57,849 --> 00:31:58,975
Well, you just have to keep saying it

540
00:31:59,058 --> 00:32:01,686
until Peggy can find it in her heart
to forgive you.

541
00:32:01,769 --> 00:32:03,354
Or I do.

542
00:32:03,437 --> 00:32:05,064
But don't you see?

543
00:32:05,773 --> 00:32:07,441
Even if you are sorry

544
00:32:07,525 --> 00:32:09,193
and I do believe that you are...

545
00:32:10,861 --> 00:32:12,654
it doesn't change anything.

546
00:32:16,283 --> 00:32:18,660
So, you'll hate me all your life?

547
00:32:18,743 --> 00:32:20,620
I don't hate you

548
00:32:21,788 --> 00:32:24,540
but we need a rest from each other.

549
00:32:25,625 --> 00:32:28,669
We have been trapped
in this trio of regret for too long.

550
00:32:30,296 --> 00:32:31,964
Now I'm going to bed.

551
00:32:43,183 --> 00:32:47,062
How I wish you would stay.
It feels much too soon.

552
00:32:47,145 --> 00:32:48,688
I do worry so.

553
00:32:48,772 --> 00:32:50,690
You won't go back to the bank today?

554
00:32:50,773 --> 00:32:53,151
I've said I'll be there next week.

555
00:32:53,985 --> 00:32:55,903
Marian, look after him.

556
00:32:55,987 --> 00:32:57,154
I will.

557
00:33:05,704 --> 00:33:08,331
How are you, really?

558
00:33:08,415 --> 00:33:11,001
I'm making progress, as they say.

559
00:33:11,084 --> 00:33:12,711
It could have been so much worse.

560
00:33:12,794 --> 00:33:14,796
Indeed. I could have been killed

561
00:33:14,879 --> 00:33:17,090
and then what would have been
the point of my having lived at all?

562
00:33:17,173 --> 00:33:18,591
Don't say that.

563
00:33:19,842 --> 00:33:24,847
Oh, look. A luncheon party,
no doubt to which I am not invited.

564
00:33:24,930 --> 00:33:27,308
Don't tell me you're still pining
for Gladys Russell.

565
00:33:27,391 --> 00:33:29,393
I suppose she's now
the cynosure of all eyes?

566
00:33:29,476 --> 00:33:31,436
Of course. She's pretty. She's rich.

567
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,438
She's out in society,
and this is New York.

568
00:33:33,522 --> 00:33:35,565
But are you still a contender?

569
00:33:35,649 --> 00:33:37,400
Haven't you given up?

570
00:33:37,484 --> 00:33:39,069
I should, really.

571
00:33:39,152 --> 00:33:43,239
She never answers my letters,
and if we do meet, it's very stilted.

572
00:33:43,323 --> 00:33:45,408
I'm sure Mrs. Russell has told her
not to speak to me.

573
00:33:45,491 --> 00:33:47,535
Well, if you're really
in love with her

574
00:33:47,618 --> 00:33:49,036
you must give it another try.

575
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,164
But this time, make a proper plan.

576
00:33:52,581 --> 00:33:54,166
You fill me with resolve.

577
00:33:57,544 --> 00:34:01,256
So, have you told your aunts
your secret yet?

578
00:34:01,339 --> 00:34:03,383
No, but I will.

579
00:34:03,758 --> 00:34:04,801
When?

580
00:34:04,884 --> 00:34:06,970
When I can't keep it secret
any longer.

581
00:34:08,096 --> 00:34:09,597
But what about you?

582
00:34:12,642 --> 00:34:15,686
I just don't know how much longer
I can stay with my parents.

583
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:17,563
What's the remedy?

584
00:34:19,273 --> 00:34:22,776
Is there any chance
I could come back to 61st Street?

585
00:34:22,860 --> 00:34:24,695
If Mrs. van Rhijn hasn't found
a replacement...

586
00:34:24,778 --> 00:34:26,822
I assure you she has not.

587
00:34:26,905 --> 00:34:28,448
Then can you ask her
if she'd meet with me?

588
00:34:28,532 --> 00:34:30,617
Aunt Agnes would welcome
you back with open arms.

589
00:34:30,700 --> 00:34:31,952
And so would I.

590
00:34:33,036 --> 00:34:35,496
Not everyone in that house
is so hospitable.

591
00:34:36,748 --> 00:34:39,834
I think Aunt Agnes regrets keeping
Armstrong when she let you go.

592
00:34:41,127 --> 00:34:44,588
And if you think you can handle her,
please come back.

593
00:34:44,672 --> 00:34:48,008
I'd like to,
Miss Armstrong notwithstanding.

594
00:34:48,092 --> 00:34:49,885
I'll speak to Aunt Agnes
and write to you.

595
00:34:50,177 --> 00:34:51,386
Thank you.

596
00:34:53,472 --> 00:34:55,265
But why do you need my help?

597
00:34:55,348 --> 00:34:56,600
You know Gladys Russell.

598
00:34:56,683 --> 00:34:58,435
Why can't you arrange
to meet her yourself?

599
00:34:58,518 --> 00:35:00,812
Because her mother
doesn't want me as a suitor.

600
00:35:01,521 --> 00:35:04,607
Mrs. Russell doesn't like any man
she hasn't chosen.

601
00:35:04,691 --> 00:35:06,317
But I don't see
what I can do about it.

602
00:35:06,984 --> 00:35:08,277
Now, would you like some more coffee?

603
00:35:08,361 --> 00:35:10,196
Or can I fetch you a sandwich?

604
00:35:10,279 --> 00:35:11,697
I'll do it.

605
00:35:12,740 --> 00:35:14,408
I'm glad to see you're better.

606
00:35:14,491 --> 00:35:15,659
Was it very terrible?

607
00:35:18,203 --> 00:35:20,455
It certainly made me think.

608
00:35:20,539 --> 00:35:22,499
What was I doing
wandering round New York

609
00:35:22,582 --> 00:35:25,460
when I should have been at home,
dining with my family?

610
00:35:25,543 --> 00:35:28,046
Heavens. You mean
you'd like to settle down?

611
00:35:29,505 --> 00:35:30,757
I suppose I do.

612
00:35:32,049 --> 00:35:34,051
Which brings us back to Miss Russell.

613
00:35:34,510 --> 00:35:35,553
Please help me.

614
00:35:35,636 --> 00:35:38,055
I've helped you before,
and nothing came of it.

615
00:35:38,139 --> 00:35:39,181
This time I know what to do.

616
00:35:39,265 --> 00:35:41,225
I just need a few minutes
alone with her.

617
00:35:42,184 --> 00:35:43,435
Ask us both to luncheon.

618
00:35:43,519 --> 00:35:45,854
No, that would be too obvious...

619
00:35:47,147 --> 00:35:50,734
but I've been meaning to mark
cousin Dashiell's return to New York.

620
00:35:50,817 --> 00:35:52,485
You can come to that.

621
00:35:52,569 --> 00:35:55,154
What reason can you have
for asking Gladys but not her mother?

622
00:35:55,238 --> 00:35:57,198
Leave it with me.

623
00:35:57,281 --> 00:35:58,783
I have an idea.

624
00:35:59,367 --> 00:36:01,285
Mrs. Fane is throwing a party
for her cousin.

625
00:36:01,369 --> 00:36:03,954
- What's wrong with that?
- It's on the day of my dinner.

626
00:36:04,038 --> 00:36:05,247
How could she do such a thing?

627
00:36:05,331 --> 00:36:07,958
Perhaps Mr. Montgomery
couldn't manage another date.

628
00:36:08,042 --> 00:36:09,460
It starts at half past three.

629
00:36:09,543 --> 00:36:11,461
We'll be home before six,
with plenty of time to get ready.

630
00:36:11,545 --> 00:36:12,671
I can't come.

631
00:36:12,754 --> 00:36:14,297
I won't be able to leave
the house that day.

632
00:36:14,381 --> 00:36:17,175
Then Gladys can go with Miss Brook.
She'll have been invited.

633
00:36:17,258 --> 00:36:19,469
But will Miss Brook protect her
from men I don't approve of?

634
00:36:19,552 --> 00:36:20,595
Honestly, Mother.

635
00:36:20,678 --> 00:36:22,639
You say I'm not to speak to men
you don't approve of

636
00:36:22,722 --> 00:36:24,640
but you don't approve of anyone.

637
00:36:24,724 --> 00:36:26,934
She must be allowed to go out.

638
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:28,811
You can't keep her in a bandbox.

639
00:36:29,603 --> 00:36:31,730
Oh, very well. I give in.

640
00:36:33,190 --> 00:36:34,233
Thank you.

641
00:36:34,316 --> 00:36:35,984
Do I have to be at the dinner?

642
00:36:36,068 --> 00:36:38,654
Only I've some troublesome business
in Pittsburgh I'm dealing with.

643
00:36:38,737 --> 00:36:40,572
I need you there.

644
00:36:40,655 --> 00:36:42,282
I wish I could understand
the whole thing.

645
00:36:43,366 --> 00:36:46,619
You don't even like opera.
Not so I've ever noticed.

646
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,206
George, the opera is where society
puts itself on display.

647
00:36:50,289 --> 00:36:52,416
Not just in New York
but all over Europe.

648
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:53,668
And the leaders take boxes

649
00:36:53,751 --> 00:36:56,045
where they meet each other
and their children court each other

650
00:36:56,128 --> 00:36:58,672
and that is how
the wheels of society turn.

651
00:36:58,756 --> 00:37:01,884
The Academy tried to stop
the Metropolitan from being built.

652
00:37:01,967 --> 00:37:03,218
And they thought they could

653
00:37:03,302 --> 00:37:05,137
but it'll be open
by the end of October.

654
00:37:05,220 --> 00:37:06,430
If you decide to back the Met

655
00:37:06,513 --> 00:37:08,431
you know you'll be taking on
Mrs. Astor?

656
00:37:08,515 --> 00:37:09,557
And?

657
00:37:09,641 --> 00:37:11,142
Of course I love
that you're not afraid of her.

658
00:37:11,226 --> 00:37:13,937
I'm glad to be her friend, George,
but not her lackey.

659
00:37:18,232 --> 00:37:20,026
Aurora has written.

660
00:37:20,109 --> 00:37:22,111
She's giving a tea
for cousin Dashiell.

661
00:37:23,070 --> 00:37:24,863
Weren't we going to manage that?

662
00:37:24,947 --> 00:37:27,241
Aurora can do it. She's his cousin.

663
00:37:27,324 --> 00:37:30,494
We'll all go, and Marian can meet
some more suitable young people.

664
00:37:30,577 --> 00:37:32,621
Although I'm never sure
that your definition of suitable

665
00:37:32,704 --> 00:37:33,747
is quite the same as mine.

666
00:37:33,830 --> 00:37:35,624
If it isn't, it should be.

667
00:37:37,208 --> 00:37:40,837
I hope you're not still pining
after that tedious Mr. Raikes.

668
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:42,505
Oh, Agnes.

669
00:37:42,588 --> 00:37:44,799
There's no need to bring that up.

670
00:37:44,882 --> 00:37:46,175
Not really, Aunt Agnes.

671
00:37:46,259 --> 00:37:48,260
They were bound to marry
at some stage.

672
00:37:48,344 --> 00:37:50,429
All I hope is that next time
you will listen to us

673
00:37:50,513 --> 00:37:52,181
and not assume we know nothing.

674
00:37:52,264 --> 00:37:53,766
I shall be more sensible...

675
00:37:54,808 --> 00:37:55,934
if there is a next time.

676
00:37:56,018 --> 00:37:57,769
That's all we ask, isn't it, Ada?

677
00:37:57,853 --> 00:37:59,604
Some respect for our advice.

678
00:37:59,688 --> 00:38:01,731
All I want is for Marian to be happy.

679
00:38:12,825 --> 00:38:15,911
I need you to confirm
this is the final list for ordering.

680
00:38:15,995 --> 00:38:17,037
Give it to me.

681
00:38:17,997 --> 00:38:19,540
How is it coming on?

682
00:38:19,623 --> 00:38:20,666
Will we be ready in time?

683
00:38:20,749 --> 00:38:23,043
I think so, but planning is the key.

684
00:38:23,126 --> 00:38:24,419
I do have a favor to ask.

685
00:38:24,503 --> 00:38:27,255
As you know, Mrs. Russell hopes
to put on quite a show

686
00:38:27,339 --> 00:38:29,883
so we're borrowing some footmen
from various households

687
00:38:29,966 --> 00:38:31,718
And you want me
to swell their number.

688
00:38:31,801 --> 00:38:33,970
- Not exactly.
- I don't mind. It's part of my job.

689
00:38:34,053 --> 00:38:36,848
No, I need you more
as an under-butler

690
00:38:36,931 --> 00:38:38,307
to take care of the wines.

691
00:38:38,683 --> 00:38:40,142
We'll go through them together,
of course

692
00:38:40,226 --> 00:38:42,937
but if you could see
to their opening, decanting, icing

693
00:38:43,020 --> 00:38:44,438
and serving throughout the evening?

694
00:38:44,521 --> 00:38:45,773
I'm flattered.

695
00:38:46,648 --> 00:38:47,774
But do you really think

696
00:38:47,858 --> 00:38:49,735
that she'll side
with the new Metropolitan?

697
00:38:49,818 --> 00:38:51,528
It's beginning to look like it.

698
00:38:51,611 --> 00:38:53,071
Won't Mrs. Astor kick up a stink?

699
00:38:53,155 --> 00:38:55,198
Mrs. Russell doesn't lack courage.

700
00:39:07,877 --> 00:39:09,086
Come with us!

701
00:39:09,170 --> 00:39:10,796
- Papa?
- Go on.

702
00:39:16,885 --> 00:39:20,931
Dashiell, how very good to see you.

703
00:39:21,014 --> 00:39:24,225
Except you should have called on us
the moment you got to New York.

704
00:39:24,309 --> 00:39:26,227
Indeed I should have done,
Aunt Agnes.

705
00:39:26,311 --> 00:39:27,562
I hope you can forgive me.

706
00:39:27,645 --> 00:39:29,439
Oh, of course we can.

707
00:39:30,606 --> 00:39:31,816
You know Oscar.

708
00:39:31,899 --> 00:39:33,150
Oscar. Good heavens.

709
00:39:33,234 --> 00:39:35,694
We're both rather older
than when we last met.

710
00:39:35,778 --> 00:39:36,862
Don't remind me.

711
00:39:36,946 --> 00:39:40,282
And this is our niece, Marian Brook,
who lives with us now.

712
00:39:40,365 --> 00:39:42,200
Does that make us cousins?

713
00:39:42,284 --> 00:39:43,827
Almost, but not quite.

714
00:39:43,910 --> 00:39:45,954
Where is Frances? Is she here?

715
00:39:46,037 --> 00:39:48,623
She is.
But she found a group of young

716
00:39:48,707 --> 00:39:50,250
and so she escaped me.

717
00:39:51,251 --> 00:39:53,336
Cousin Dashiell, welcome.

718
00:39:54,462 --> 00:39:56,172
Come, shall we have our tea?

719
00:39:56,255 --> 00:39:57,590
Dashiell, good to see you.

720
00:40:02,011 --> 00:40:05,973
Oscar, why don't you show
Miss Russell Charles's new library?

721
00:40:06,056 --> 00:40:08,433
My pride and joy.

722
00:40:08,517 --> 00:40:09,643
Shall I?

723
00:40:09,726 --> 00:40:11,061
If you wish.

724
00:40:14,564 --> 00:40:16,191
I'm so pleased you're well again.

725
00:40:16,274 --> 00:40:17,442
I'm not quite dancing yet

726
00:40:17,525 --> 00:40:20,820
but when I do,
I hope you'll be my partner.

727
00:40:20,903 --> 00:40:22,655
- Is your mother here?
- No.

728
00:40:22,738 --> 00:40:24,657
Or I wouldn't dare talk to you.

729
00:40:24,740 --> 00:40:26,200
Then I'm glad she's not.

730
00:40:28,244 --> 00:40:31,205
Well, at least I know now
why you never answered my letters.

731
00:40:31,288 --> 00:40:33,874
Mother wouldn't see that keeping them
from me was wrong.

732
00:40:34,708 --> 00:40:36,752
I suppose she thinks
I don't have enough to offer.

733
00:40:37,669 --> 00:40:41,256
Which is why I asked Aurora
to give this party.

734
00:40:42,048 --> 00:40:43,842
So I could make the offer myself.

735
00:40:44,133 --> 00:40:46,302
- What?
- I know there are men out there

736
00:40:46,386 --> 00:40:49,889
who are younger and richer
than I am, but we would live well.

737
00:40:50,223 --> 00:40:51,265
You could choose your own friends

738
00:40:51,349 --> 00:40:53,059
run your own house,
manage your own life.

739
00:40:53,142 --> 00:40:55,352
- Isn't that what you want?
- Very much so.

740
00:40:55,436 --> 00:40:56,687
And I'm not a bully.

741
00:40:56,770 --> 00:41:00,274
I'd never force you to echo
my opinions and parrot all my views.

742
00:41:00,357 --> 00:41:01,817
Of course not.

743
00:41:01,900 --> 00:41:03,485
Most men would.

744
00:41:03,568 --> 00:41:05,320
That's true, I suppose.

745
00:41:05,403 --> 00:41:07,989
I am happy to be hen-pecked...

746
00:41:09,491 --> 00:41:11,284
as long as you're doing the pecking.

747
00:41:12,410 --> 00:41:14,746
We'd have fun, Gladys.
I know we would.

748
00:41:14,829 --> 00:41:16,956
I want us to be happy...

749
00:41:18,541 --> 00:41:21,043
very happy.
And I believe we could be.

750
00:41:25,714 --> 00:41:26,924
- Oh, I...
- Don't answer now.

751
00:41:27,007 --> 00:41:30,677
Just know that I love and
admire you more than I can say.

752
00:41:30,761 --> 00:41:33,054
More than I've ever felt
for any other woman.

753
00:41:33,138 --> 00:41:35,140
But you don't know me. Not really.

754
00:41:35,223 --> 00:41:38,685
I know you to be intelligent
and fine.

755
00:41:38,768 --> 00:41:40,770
And independent
when you're allowed to be, and witty.

756
00:41:42,188 --> 00:41:44,857
You have every quality
that I admire. Truly.

757
00:41:44,940 --> 00:41:47,067
Shouldn't you be saying
these things to my father?

758
00:41:47,151 --> 00:41:48,194
I'll write to him.

759
00:41:48,277 --> 00:41:50,279
Oscar? Gladys?

760
00:41:51,488 --> 00:41:52,781
You mustn't miss the tea.

761
00:41:53,198 --> 00:41:54,825
Of course not.

762
00:41:58,620 --> 00:42:02,415
Gould, how are things going
with the Knights of Labor?

763
00:42:02,499 --> 00:42:03,917
Better for me than for them.

764
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,293
I should expect nothing less.

765
00:42:05,376 --> 00:42:06,961
Their demands are outlandish.

766
00:42:07,045 --> 00:42:09,130
The leader, Powderly,
says he wants all workers

767
00:42:09,213 --> 00:42:11,716
to be in partnership
with their employer.

768
00:42:11,799 --> 00:42:14,343
He can want what he likes,
Mr. Gould, but he won't get it.

769
00:42:14,426 --> 00:42:15,678
Have you sustained any damage?

770
00:42:15,761 --> 00:42:16,929
Have you?

771
00:42:17,012 --> 00:42:18,764
This isn't a competition, gentlemen.

772
00:42:18,847 --> 00:42:21,224
Mr. Gould is not cornering
the gold market.

773
00:42:21,308 --> 00:42:23,894
Mr. Russell is not
bankrupting a railroad.

774
00:42:23,977 --> 00:42:26,896
For once, we're on the same side.

775
00:42:26,980 --> 00:42:28,106
He's right.

776
00:42:28,189 --> 00:42:30,024
Let us enjoy the sensation.

777
00:42:31,359 --> 00:42:33,403
They tried to target
my freight traffic

778
00:42:33,486 --> 00:42:34,654
and shut some down.

779
00:42:34,737 --> 00:42:37,198
- But you didn't give in?
- We can't give in.

780
00:42:37,281 --> 00:42:39,617
The list of what they want
will grow with every concession.

781
00:42:39,700 --> 00:42:43,245
Houses, medical care,
less work, more pay

782
00:42:43,328 --> 00:42:45,664
they want an eight-hour workday,
for God's sake!

783
00:42:45,747 --> 00:42:49,292
Safety measures that make
a child's nursery look dangerous.

784
00:42:49,376 --> 00:42:51,294
The point is we can't back down

785
00:42:51,378 --> 00:42:54,506
or we'll lose control of everything
we've spent our lives building.

786
00:42:54,589 --> 00:42:56,716
For once, we must stand together

787
00:42:57,217 --> 00:43:00,178
and introduce change
when we decide, not them.

788
00:43:00,261 --> 00:43:02,555
They're a rabble,
so treat them like a rabble.

789
00:43:03,306 --> 00:43:05,391
If it comes to it,
I'll hire half the working class

790
00:43:05,474 --> 00:43:06,976
to kill the other half.

791
00:43:09,561 --> 00:43:10,938
- Thank you.
- Goodbye, Aurora

792
00:43:11,021 --> 00:43:13,273
And thank you both.
This has been lovely.

793
00:43:13,357 --> 00:43:14,858
Everything was so charming.

794
00:43:14,941 --> 00:43:16,902
Oh, our pleasure.
We're so glad you could come.

795
00:43:16,985 --> 00:43:19,988
Aunt Agnes, could I hold you back
for one more minute?

796
00:43:20,071 --> 00:43:23,199
I've found Frances,
and she wants to say hello.

797
00:43:23,283 --> 00:43:25,326
How nice to see you, my dear.

798
00:43:25,410 --> 00:43:27,578
Aunt Agnes, Aunt Ada, how are you?

799
00:43:27,662 --> 00:43:29,664
You have a good memory, that's clear.

800
00:43:31,207 --> 00:43:33,459
Miss Brook?
What are you doing here?

801
00:43:33,542 --> 00:43:34,585
How do you know Miss Brook?

802
00:43:34,668 --> 00:43:36,628
Oh, she's my teacher
at Saint Mary's.

803
00:43:37,421 --> 00:43:38,964
What?

804
00:43:39,047 --> 00:43:41,425
I teach watercolors at Saint Mary's.

805
00:43:44,886 --> 00:43:46,554
On Thursdays.

806
00:43:46,638 --> 00:43:48,515
The day is immaterial.

807
00:43:49,432 --> 00:43:52,226
Did you know you were teaching
Dashiell's daughter?

808
00:43:52,310 --> 00:43:54,395
How could she?
We've only just met.

809
00:43:54,478 --> 00:43:55,896
Yes.

810
00:43:55,980 --> 00:43:59,066
We should go,
but it's good to see you all.

811
00:43:59,525 --> 00:44:00,943
Come and call on us.

812
00:44:03,195 --> 00:44:06,990
So you and Mrs. Bauer would've been
on opposite sides in the war of 1866?

813
00:44:07,074 --> 00:44:10,702
Yes. I'm from Hanover,
which fought with Austria

814
00:44:10,785 --> 00:44:13,955
and Miss Weber is from Berlin,
the capital of Prussia.

815
00:44:14,038 --> 00:44:15,498
Why can't Europe be like America?

816
00:44:15,582 --> 00:44:17,792
Because Europe
is nothing like America.

817
00:44:18,209 --> 00:44:19,627
I hope you don't mind my saying so

818
00:44:19,710 --> 00:44:22,296
but you seem very young
to be a lady's maid to Mrs. Russell.

819
00:44:22,380 --> 00:44:24,548
I'm standing in
until she finds a new one.

820
00:44:24,632 --> 00:44:26,091
I'm Miss Gladys's maid.

821
00:44:26,175 --> 00:44:27,426
Now she's out
and enjoying the season

822
00:44:27,509 --> 00:44:29,803
you must be dressing her
in glamorous ball gowns every night.

823
00:44:30,095 --> 00:44:32,514
Mrs. Russell keeps her daughter
on a tight rein.

824
00:44:32,598 --> 00:44:34,933
I suppose
she's afraid of fortune hunters.

825
00:44:35,016 --> 00:44:37,018
Of which there are plenty
in New York.

826
00:44:37,102 --> 00:44:38,144
Naming no names.

827
00:44:40,105 --> 00:44:42,190
- They're back.
- I'd better go.

828
00:44:42,273 --> 00:44:43,566
Thank you for my coffee, Mrs. Bauer.

829
00:44:43,650 --> 00:44:44,692
Right.

830
00:44:45,860 --> 00:44:47,195
I hope we meet again.

831
00:44:47,278 --> 00:44:48,487
I'd like that.

832
00:44:50,156 --> 00:44:54,201
Saint Mary's is an old school,
and very well-respected.

833
00:44:54,285 --> 00:44:56,870
I don't care if it's where
George Washington learned to read!

834
00:44:56,954 --> 00:44:58,914
I teach nice young ladies to paint.

835
00:44:58,997 --> 00:45:00,165
What could be more respectable?

836
00:45:00,248 --> 00:45:02,250
If you thought so,
then why did you keep it a secret?

837
00:45:02,334 --> 00:45:03,877
Because I knew you'd be angry.

838
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:05,337
Ada, why didn't you stop her?

839
00:45:05,420 --> 00:45:07,005
Me? What could I have done?

840
00:45:07,088 --> 00:45:08,339
When did you find out about it?

841
00:45:08,423 --> 00:45:10,174
This afternoon. Like you.

842
00:45:10,258 --> 00:45:13,094
So your contempt for us both
was at least consistent.

843
00:45:13,177 --> 00:45:15,638
I don't have contempt for anyone.

844
00:45:15,721 --> 00:45:17,723
And it doesn't seem
to bother cousin Dashiell

845
00:45:17,807 --> 00:45:20,309
that I teach at his daughter's
school. Or Aurora.

846
00:45:20,392 --> 00:45:22,394
They feel sorry for you. That's all.

847
00:45:25,689 --> 00:45:27,149
You're wrong.

848
00:45:27,232 --> 00:45:29,901
Not everyone is as cruel
and mean spirited as you!

849
00:45:30,527 --> 00:45:32,445
- Marian...
- Is it cruel to mind it

850
00:45:32,529 --> 00:45:35,031
when you stamp on our name
and drag it in the mud!

851
00:45:35,114 --> 00:45:37,033
Now, get out of my way!

852
00:45:42,830 --> 00:45:45,708
I suppose you have to drop it now.

853
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,418
No, I won't.

854
00:45:47,501 --> 00:45:48,752
I've given my word
to the headmistress

855
00:45:48,836 --> 00:45:50,128
and I'm not going to break it!

856
00:45:50,212 --> 00:45:52,172
Then things may be uncomfortable.

857
00:45:52,255 --> 00:45:53,548
So what?

858
00:45:54,257 --> 00:45:56,343
I won't be put in a cage!

859
00:46:01,848 --> 00:46:03,224
Is everything all right, Miss Ada?

860
00:46:03,891 --> 00:46:05,101
Yes, Bannister.

861
00:46:05,184 --> 00:46:07,728
Only I heard shouting,
which is unusual in this house.

862
00:46:07,812 --> 00:46:10,940
It was unusual, yes.

863
00:46:11,023 --> 00:46:12,608
But every now and then

864
00:46:12,691 --> 00:46:18,488
I wonder if it isn't good
to shout a little and let off steam.

865
00:46:26,079 --> 00:46:28,331
- You sent for me, ma'am.
- I should be changing

866
00:46:28,414 --> 00:46:30,416
but I need you to tell me
that everything is taken care of.

867
00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:32,502
Everything is taken care of, ma'am.

868
00:46:32,585 --> 00:46:35,129
We did a dry run the night
that you dined with Mrs. Cushing.

869
00:46:35,212 --> 00:46:37,756
And the deliveries, the extra
footmen, they've all arrived?

870
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,009
Madam, please go up and change.
And leave this to me.

871
00:46:44,096 --> 00:46:46,515
I am such a fool
to have agreed to a souffle.

872
00:46:46,598 --> 00:46:49,601
We'll have to keep making
new batches at 10 minute intervals

873
00:46:49,684 --> 00:46:51,686
then only serve them
as they're wanted

874
00:46:51,770 --> 00:46:53,146
and throw the rest away.

875
00:46:53,229 --> 00:46:54,939
Mr. Watson, are you ready?

876
00:46:55,023 --> 00:46:57,817
I think so. I may have decanted
too much of the Claret

877
00:46:57,900 --> 00:46:59,235
but better too much than too little.

878
00:46:59,318 --> 00:47:00,903
Mr. Church, I'm doing a final check.

879
00:47:06,450 --> 00:47:08,285
How nice you look.

880
00:47:09,411 --> 00:47:12,914
I'd say that I fear it may harm you
to be seen in that company

881
00:47:12,998 --> 00:47:16,293
but I know you will only think me
cruel and mean spirited.

882
00:47:18,420 --> 00:47:20,380
Marian didn't mean what she said.

883
00:47:20,463 --> 00:47:21,506
Really?

884
00:47:23,383 --> 00:47:26,844
I spoke too harshly. I admit that.

885
00:47:28,387 --> 00:47:30,097
Agnes is sorry too.

886
00:47:30,890 --> 00:47:31,932
Aren't you?

887
00:47:32,599 --> 00:47:34,560
Bannister will escort you
across the street.

888
00:47:55,621 --> 00:47:56,997
Miss Marian Brook.

889
00:47:59,166 --> 00:48:00,376
Isn't she lovely?

890
00:48:00,459 --> 00:48:01,710
Aurora, hello.

891
00:48:01,794 --> 00:48:03,003
- Mr. Montgomery.
- Miss Brook.

892
00:48:03,086 --> 00:48:04,963
You never said
you were coming to this.

893
00:48:05,047 --> 00:48:08,049
He didn't know, but Charles
was summoned to Washington

894
00:48:08,133 --> 00:48:09,759
for a last-minute meeting tomorrow.

895
00:48:09,843 --> 00:48:11,302
I asked Dashiell to take his place.

896
00:48:11,386 --> 00:48:14,430
I must say the van Rhijn connection
makes you all into quite a club.

897
00:48:14,514 --> 00:48:16,307
Of which you are a member.

898
00:48:16,391 --> 00:48:18,476
By marriage, not by blood.

899
00:48:18,559 --> 00:48:20,102
Well, there's nothing wrong
with that.

900
00:48:20,186 --> 00:48:22,271
- Good evening, Miss Brook.
- Mrs. Russell.

901
00:48:22,354 --> 00:48:24,189
Gladys enjoyed her tea with you.

902
00:48:24,273 --> 00:48:27,526
I'm sorry you couldn't come,
but of course I quite understand.

903
00:48:27,776 --> 00:48:29,820
Well, I've met your cousin
now anyway.

904
00:48:30,195 --> 00:48:31,446
Thank you for letting me bring him.

905
00:48:31,530 --> 00:48:34,407
Nonsense. He saved me from finding
another man at the last moment.

906
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:36,284
Charles was wretched.

907
00:48:36,368 --> 00:48:38,536
He says you have the best
French chef in New York.

908
00:48:38,620 --> 00:48:40,622
Oh, that's funnier than you know.

909
00:48:41,664 --> 00:48:44,292
Is this dinner in aid
of the new opera house?

910
00:48:44,375 --> 00:48:45,459
Why do you say that?

911
00:48:45,543 --> 00:48:47,420
I thought it was for opera lovers
in general

912
00:48:47,503 --> 00:48:49,296
but I see Mr. Gilbert's here

913
00:48:49,380 --> 00:48:51,924
and isn't he in charge of preaching
the gospel of the Met?

914
00:48:52,383 --> 00:48:53,550
I suppose that's true.

915
00:48:54,301 --> 00:48:56,678
You do know
I won't go against Mrs. Astor?

916
00:48:57,429 --> 00:48:59,347
I know you think you won't.

917
00:48:59,431 --> 00:49:01,516
But don't worry. We shan't fall out.

918
00:49:01,933 --> 00:49:04,727
Mr. and Mrs. Robert McNeil.

919
00:49:05,645 --> 00:49:08,147
- Mr. Russell, good evening.
- Mr. McNeil.

920
00:49:08,231 --> 00:49:10,274
Mrs. McNeil.
How good of you to come.

921
00:49:10,358 --> 00:49:11,484
My daughter, Gladys.

922
00:49:11,567 --> 00:49:12,777
- How do you do?
- How do you do?

923
00:49:12,860 --> 00:49:14,487
- Gladys?
- Oh, please excuse me.

924
00:49:15,237 --> 00:49:16,655
I gather Mr. Gilbert's presence

925
00:49:16,739 --> 00:49:19,074
means the dinner is to support
the Metropolitan?

926
00:49:19,908 --> 00:49:21,952
If so, count us in.

927
00:49:23,412 --> 00:49:24,788
Has he written to your father yet?

928
00:49:24,871 --> 00:49:26,540
It was only this afternoon.

929
00:49:26,623 --> 00:49:27,958
What will you say when he does?

930
00:49:28,041 --> 00:49:31,419
That depends. I want to get away
from my mother, of course, but...

931
00:49:31,503 --> 00:49:33,713
Do you really want
to be Mrs. Oscar van Rhijn?

932
00:49:36,048 --> 00:49:38,259
You do know that Mrs. Astor

933
00:49:38,342 --> 00:49:41,429
would like the Metropolitan
blown up from its foundations?

934
00:49:41,512 --> 00:49:43,472
Don't worry. I have a plan.

935
00:49:43,556 --> 00:49:45,307
And this evening,
I simply want her to understand

936
00:49:45,391 --> 00:49:47,392
the competition
the Academy will face.

937
00:49:48,227 --> 00:49:49,853
Here she is.

938
00:49:49,936 --> 00:49:52,856
Mrs. Astor, thank you for coming.
I'm delighted to see you.

939
00:49:52,939 --> 00:49:55,900
You have guests I wasn't expecting.

940
00:49:55,984 --> 00:49:59,028
You never said
you'd invited the McNeils.

941
00:49:59,112 --> 00:50:02,532
I'm afraid that they have spent
a long time on our waiting list.

942
00:50:02,615 --> 00:50:03,699
Much longer than you.

943
00:50:03,783 --> 00:50:05,785
Several guests here
have spent time on your list.

944
00:50:05,868 --> 00:50:08,370
Have you combed the city
for the disenchanted rich

945
00:50:08,454 --> 00:50:10,372
who couldn't get a box
at the Academy?

946
00:50:10,456 --> 00:50:12,458
Mrs. Astor,
the Academy Board may think

947
00:50:12,541 --> 00:50:14,293
they can keep out
the new people with impunity

948
00:50:14,376 --> 00:50:16,253
but you're clever enough
to know they're wrong.

949
00:50:16,336 --> 00:50:19,506
While the Metropolitan would welcome
the old guard if they want to come.

950
00:50:19,589 --> 00:50:22,342
Why not take a box in both houses
and see how it plays out?

951
00:50:23,259 --> 00:50:27,221
Perhaps you do not value loyalty,
I am different.

952
00:50:27,305 --> 00:50:29,140
I should scold you, Mrs. Fish.

953
00:50:29,223 --> 00:50:32,560
But I know that you're just playing
with matches, as you like to do.

954
00:50:33,102 --> 00:50:35,312
May I present Mr. Gilbert?
Or do you know him?

955
00:50:35,396 --> 00:50:36,730
I know of him.

956
00:50:36,814 --> 00:50:39,566
He is in charge of grubbing up
the cash for the new house.

957
00:50:40,067 --> 00:50:43,612
Not flattering, but true.

958
00:50:43,695 --> 00:50:47,324
I was hoping your presence here
was a sign you were open to argument.

959
00:50:47,407 --> 00:50:49,868
I am open to fetching my coat.

960
00:50:50,452 --> 00:50:51,953
Where's Carrie?

961
00:50:53,538 --> 00:50:54,997
Please don't.

962
00:50:55,081 --> 00:50:57,959
We can't have a falling out
and be a story in the morning papers.

963
00:50:59,585 --> 00:51:02,796
If I stay, it will be under duress

964
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,007
and only to avoid a scandal.

965
00:51:05,299 --> 00:51:06,508
I should be very grateful.

966
00:51:09,177 --> 00:51:10,929
Oh, look. We're going in.

967
00:51:11,346 --> 00:51:12,806
Mrs. Astor.

968
00:51:18,228 --> 00:51:21,355
I must not delay our no-doubt
excellent dinner

969
00:51:21,439 --> 00:51:24,609
but as a parting treat,
let me announce the singers

970
00:51:24,692 --> 00:51:28,112
we can look forward to hearing
in our first season.

971
00:51:28,195 --> 00:51:32,616
Sofia Scalchi, Marcella Sembrich,
Giuseppe Del Puente

972
00:51:32,699 --> 00:51:36,953
Andrea Romano, Italo Campanini,
Roberto Stagno

973
00:51:37,037 --> 00:51:39,331
and of course,
the great Christina Nilsson

974
00:51:39,831 --> 00:51:42,125
who will perform
on the opening night.

975
00:51:42,959 --> 00:51:46,671
If any of you can sleep
after hearing those names

976
00:51:46,754 --> 00:51:49,298
then I hope you dream of music.

977
00:51:54,011 --> 00:51:57,139
But Nilsson always performs
at the Academy.

978
00:51:58,015 --> 00:52:00,475
The Academy is her home in New York.

979
00:52:00,559 --> 00:52:01,893
She can't be singing.

980
00:52:01,977 --> 00:52:03,019
Well, she is.

981
00:52:03,103 --> 00:52:07,107
And surely, even if they sell
every seat in the house

982
00:52:07,190 --> 00:52:09,359
they won't have enough money
for that cast.

983
00:52:10,151 --> 00:52:13,446
They won't expect to run
at a profit for the first few years.

984
00:52:13,529 --> 00:52:14,739
I don't understand.

985
00:52:14,822 --> 00:52:15,907
What does that mean?

986
00:52:15,990 --> 00:52:19,326
I'd guess it means they have
plenty of money at their disposal.

987
00:52:19,743 --> 00:52:22,705
But they can't plan to run at a loss.

988
00:52:22,788 --> 00:52:23,831
That isn't fair.

989
00:52:23,914 --> 00:52:25,332
Well, the audience
will have the chance

990
00:52:25,415 --> 00:52:27,709
to hear every major singer
in the world.

991
00:52:27,793 --> 00:52:29,127
Isn't that fair?

992
00:52:44,016 --> 00:52:45,184
What are you doing?

993
00:52:47,603 --> 00:52:48,896
Just thinking.

994
00:52:49,647 --> 00:52:51,398
About Miss Weber?

995
00:52:51,482 --> 00:52:53,150
What are you talking about?

996
00:52:53,233 --> 00:52:54,651
You like her.

997
00:52:55,777 --> 00:52:57,529
Are you making plans?

998
00:52:57,612 --> 00:52:58,863
No.

999
00:53:00,532 --> 00:53:02,534
But I won't be a footman all my life.

1000
00:53:03,785 --> 00:53:05,119
And what would you like to do?

1001
00:53:05,203 --> 00:53:06,704
I'm interested in a lot of things

1002
00:53:06,788 --> 00:53:10,333
but I'm not sure how to turn
any of them into a living.

1003
00:53:11,667 --> 00:53:13,544
Perhaps Miss Weber could help.

1004
00:53:14,628 --> 00:53:16,463
I'm going inside. It's cold.

1005
00:53:28,641 --> 00:53:31,185
So you feel the Academy is finished?

1006
00:53:31,269 --> 00:53:34,147
It seems to me the Academy
wants it every which way.

1007
00:53:34,230 --> 00:53:36,023
They refused to build more boxes

1008
00:53:36,107 --> 00:53:38,984
and they won't spend the money
to secure the best singers.

1009
00:53:39,068 --> 00:53:41,487
But they don't want anyone else
to do so either.

1010
00:53:43,947 --> 00:53:45,449
Mrs. McNeil, are you all right?

1011
00:53:47,326 --> 00:53:48,410
Flora?

1012
00:53:49,244 --> 00:53:50,453
What is it?

1013
00:53:50,537 --> 00:53:52,080
Nothing.

1014
00:53:52,163 --> 00:53:54,833
That is,
I must have bitten my tongue.

1015
00:53:54,916 --> 00:53:56,042
Or something.

1016
00:53:56,125 --> 00:53:57,919
Or something?

1017
00:53:58,002 --> 00:53:59,378
I bit my tongue.

1018
00:54:04,925 --> 00:54:07,261
Mrs. Brown, would like to join...

1019
00:54:10,597 --> 00:54:14,017
Yes, Mrs. McNeil is also an admirer.

1020
00:54:14,101 --> 00:54:15,477
Aren't you, my dear?

1021
00:54:16,061 --> 00:54:17,187
Aren't I what?

1022
00:54:17,270 --> 00:54:19,397
An admirer of Roberto Stagno.

1023
00:54:19,481 --> 00:54:20,940
What?

1024
00:54:21,024 --> 00:54:22,775
The tenor.

1025
00:54:22,859 --> 00:54:24,444
You admire him.

1026
00:54:27,530 --> 00:54:29,573
I suppose I do, yes.

1027
00:54:42,002 --> 00:54:43,378
I hope it is not a disappointment

1028
00:54:43,461 --> 00:54:45,755
that we won't leave the gentlemen
to their port.

1029
00:54:45,839 --> 00:54:47,841
Instead, would you like
to join me in the hall?

1030
00:55:06,692 --> 00:55:08,568
Who was that?
Why were you looking at him?

1031
00:55:08,652 --> 00:55:10,195
That man is my father.

1032
00:55:11,946 --> 00:55:13,782
Did you know he was a servant?

1033
00:55:13,865 --> 00:55:15,617
My mother said he had come down
in the world

1034
00:55:15,700 --> 00:55:17,452
but I wasn't sure
her account was honest.

1035
00:55:17,535 --> 00:55:20,454
How did you recognize him?
After all this time?

1036
00:55:20,538 --> 00:55:22,999
He used to come to the house
and watch me from across the street.

1037
00:55:23,082 --> 00:55:25,834
When at last I asked why, he told me.

1038
00:55:25,918 --> 00:55:27,252
What can we do?

1039
00:55:27,961 --> 00:55:30,631
Except hope it doesn't get out,
I suppose.

1040
00:55:31,215 --> 00:55:32,966
Oh, I think we can do more than that.

1041
00:55:42,100 --> 00:55:45,812
Oh, my, how?

1042
00:55:54,111 --> 00:55:55,946
When was this all done?

1043
00:55:56,029 --> 00:55:57,656
During dinner. When do you think?

1044
00:55:57,739 --> 00:56:00,367
But that's impossible.

1045
00:56:06,206 --> 00:56:07,874
You know now
that the new opera house

1046
00:56:07,957 --> 00:56:10,877
will open in October
with a production of Gounod's Faust

1047
00:56:11,335 --> 00:56:12,795
and as you heard, we're lucky enough

1048
00:56:12,879 --> 00:56:15,673
that Miss Christina Nilsson
will sing the part of Marguerite.

1049
00:56:16,257 --> 00:56:18,759
But we are perhaps even luckier
than that this evening

1050
00:56:18,842 --> 00:56:21,261
because Miss Nilsson
has traveled to New York

1051
00:56:21,345 --> 00:56:23,138
to give you a taste
of things to come.

1052
00:56:23,639 --> 00:56:26,516
- Oh, God!
- Oh, I can't believe!

1053
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,519
I bid you welcome
to Marguerite's garden.

1054
00:56:54,668 --> 00:56:59,339
<i>I laugh at seeing myself
As such a beauty in this mirror</i>

1055
00:56:59,422 --> 00:57:02,884
<i>I laugh at seeing myself
As such a beauty in this mirror</i>

1056
00:57:03,634 --> 00:57:07,972
<i>Is that you, Margherita?</i>

1057
00:57:08,055 --> 00:57:12,434
<i>Is that really you?
Answer me, answer me</i>

1058
00:57:12,518 --> 00:57:15,979
<i>Answer, answer, answer quickly</i>

1059
00:57:16,063 --> 00:57:20,275
<i>No, no, that's no longer your face</i>

1060
00:57:20,358 --> 00:57:25,655
<i>This face is the face
Of the daughter of a king</i>

1061
00:57:25,738 --> 00:57:29,784
<i>This face is the face
Of the daughter of a king</i>

1062
00:57:29,867 --> 00:57:35,206
<i>Not you anymore, not you anymore</i>

1063
00:57:35,289 --> 00:57:42,921
<i>It's the face of someone that people
Will salute to as she walks by</i>

1064
00:57:43,005 --> 00:57:44,923
I begin to grasp your plan

1065
00:57:45,007 --> 00:57:46,842
and you seem to have won
the first battle.

1066
00:57:46,925 --> 00:57:48,510
I intend to win the war.

1067
00:57:48,802 --> 00:57:49,928
Now...

1068
00:57:50,011 --> 00:57:55,475
<i>If he saw me so</i>

1069
00:57:56,184 --> 00:57:58,853
<i>Like such a young lady</i>

1070
00:57:58,936 --> 00:58:06,026
<i>He would find me to be so beautiful</i>

1071
00:58:16,478 --> 00:58:24,819
