This programme contains some
strong language

2
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,480
Hello.

3
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,400
Johannes Brandt?

4
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,240
Are we to have a menagerie?

5
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,474
Er, his name is Peebo.

6
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,154
He's a parakeet.

7
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:37,954
I'm Nella.

8
00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:40,314
Short for Petronella.

9
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:41,954
Are you the housekeeper?

10
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:43,360
MUFFLED LAUGH

11
00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:47,840
Where is Johannes?

12
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,754
My brother is not at home.

13
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,554
Your brother? So you are...

14
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,040
Marin Brandt.

15
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,800
Otto!

16
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,200
For your feet.

17
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,994
Otto is my brother's manservant.

18
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,834
This is Cornelia, she is the maid.

19
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,114
They will look after you.
This is Petronella.

20
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,960
She is the Seigneur's new wife.

21
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,280
I expect you'll
want to see your bedroom.

22
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,160
To the kitchen.

23
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,880
Oh, he lives with, um...

24
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,200
Come on!

25
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,794
This used to be my room.

26
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,914
But it had the better view,
so we gave it to you.

27
00:03:14,920 --> 00:03:16,874
Oh, no, please, you must keep it.

28
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,234
No, you misunderstand.

29
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,114
The view is of you.

30
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,680
Amsterdammers must see that
Johannes Brandt has a new wife.

31
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:35,680
The Oortmans' grand ancestral seat,
is it warm and dry?

32
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,354
It's not that grand...

33
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,760
..and it's damp.

34
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,154
We couldn't afford to
maintain the dykes.

35
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,194
Pedigree counts for nothing.

36
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,480
Nothing.

37
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,160
The dykes must be maintained
or the waters will rise.

38
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,594
We sent the second-best barge.
I hope you weren't offended.

39
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,714
Johannes was using the other one.

40
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:10,320
No, of course not.
Did he know I was coming?

41
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,514
You must be hungry.

42
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,120
I'll have Cornelia bring you
something to eat.

43
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,120
Oh, do you have any marzipan?

44
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:23,754
We do not keep sugar in the house.

45
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,000
The luxury of it sickens the soul.

46
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,960
Cornelia will bring you a herring.

47
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,440
Be still, girl!
He'll be here any moment!

48
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,554
Now you listen to me, my girl.
You need to marry him.

49
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,034
You need to make him want to marry
you, otherwise we are ruined.

50
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,474
For myself, I don't care.

51
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,280
- But for your brother and sister...
- He's coming! He's coming!

52
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:20,434
And this is Nella...

53
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,040
Petronella, I mean.

54
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,480
Your daughter is very beautiful,
Madame Oortman.

55
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,160
- How bad are the debts, exactly?
- The debts?

56
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,994
I know I was not the only one
you wrote to.

57
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,920
You would not have done so
had you not been desperate.

58
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,720
Did I mention she plays the lute?

59
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,354
Praise God, we are saved.
He has asked for your hand.

60
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,154
Do you think you could love him?

61
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,160
- Does it make a difference?
- No. But I want you to be happy.

62
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,400
I think perhaps I could.

63
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,634
I hear they eat chocolate
wrapped in gold in Amsterdam!

64
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,994
Come, come.

00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,474
She's here.

68
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,360
It would have looked better
if you'd been here when she arrived.

69
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:01,960
Perhaps you should go and see her.

70
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,034
No, let her sleep.

71
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,920
- You have to understand...
- I understand.

72
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,520
I have to work. Rzecki, come.

73
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,520
SHE INHALES

74
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,194
That's right, although,
Hamburg's a good choice

75
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,320
And Marseilles...

76
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,834
Good morning!

77
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:57,920
Good morning.

78
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,634
Thank you for my dress.

79
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,600
There are more.

80
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,594
It's a little large.

81
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:08,840
Marin, don't you think?

82
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,640
Never mind, we'll have it altered.
Come and eat something.

83
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,594
We are eating frugally today
to demonstrate humility.

84
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,994
Privation as a thrill, you mean.
Otto, get me some beer.

85
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,514
And Nella and Marin too.

86
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,874
It gives me indigestion.

87
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,274
Go on, be defiant!

88
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,320
Bravery is the rarest commodity
in the city these days.

89
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,954
- How was the voyage?
- Not much to tell.

90
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,154
The Lombardy silk,
who won the import rights? I forget.

91
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,034
- Who?
- Henry Field of London.

92
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,034
The English, always the English.
Think of the commission, Johannes.

93
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,940
I know what I'm doing, Marin.
This house is evidence enough, no?

94
00:09:05,043 --> 00:09:07,757
Have you spoken to Frans Meermans
yet about his wife's sugar?

95
00:09:07,794 --> 00:09:09,228
So that's what this is about.

96
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,314
It's been sitting
in the warehouse for a month.

97
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,045
You still haven't told them
what you plan to do with it.

98
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,554
My sister thinks that sugar rots
the soul, Nella,

99
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,913
but of all the things I might sell,
she pushes this.

100
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:19,913
- What do you make of that?
- Sell the sugar!

101
00:09:19,919 --> 00:09:21,039
Don't tell me what to do!

102
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:31,433
- Where are you going?
- To check on your damned sugar!

103
00:09:31,439 --> 00:09:32,719
I don't believe you.

104
00:09:43,079 --> 00:09:45,439
PEEBO CHIRPS Hello!

105
00:09:52,479 --> 00:09:55,673
Did Johannes collect
these on his travels?

106
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,153
The world in a set of plates.

107
00:09:58,159 --> 00:10:00,519
Isn't he rich enough to have
someone travel for him?

108
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:04,833
The Seigneur's spirit
belongs on the seas.

109
00:10:04,839 --> 00:10:08,193
He says the ocean is something
the land can never be.

110
00:10:08,199 --> 00:10:10,199
No patch ever stays the same.

111
00:10:11,159 --> 00:10:12,479
What are you doing?

112
00:10:13,879 --> 00:10:15,273
Only talking.

113
00:10:15,279 --> 00:10:18,833
He's working. Can't you see?

114
00:10:18,839 --> 00:10:20,393
Leave that.

115
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:22,639
There are scrolls you need to deliver.

116
00:10:29,759 --> 00:10:32,793
Marin, I think Peebo misses me.

117
00:10:32,799 --> 00:10:35,553
He needs fresh air and light.

118
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,113
His place is down here.

119
00:10:38,119 --> 00:10:40,273
- But Johannes' dog...
- Johannes is the Seigneur.

120
00:10:40,279 --> 00:10:41,879
He may do as he pleases.

121
00:10:43,119 --> 00:10:44,879
Is he away a great deal?

122
00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:58,839
Nobody forced you to marry him.

Johannes...

126
00:11:35,999 --> 00:11:37,873
I just wondered,

127
00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:41,439
will I see you...

128
00:11:43,799 --> 00:11:45,439
..later?

129
00:11:49,599 --> 00:11:51,079
Tonight...

130
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,279
Tonight, I cannot.

131
00:12:02,959 --> 00:12:04,799
Soon, then?

00:12:06,479 --> 00:12:08,759

133
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,199
..good night, sweet girl.

134
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:32,153
I have now been in Amsterdam
for over a week.

135
00:12:32,159 --> 00:12:36,033
The city is a glory, like nothing
I have ever experienced.

136
00:12:36,039 --> 00:12:39,993
My new home is beautiful,
and I want for no material thing.

137
00:12:39,999 --> 00:12:43,153

"and laid the foundations upon a rock."

139
00:12:46,199 --> 00:12:50,393
Johannes's sister Marin is very godly,

140
00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:53,273
and takes great interest in our diet.

141
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:55,439
"..built his house upon the earth."

142
00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:02,730
As for Johannes,

143
00:13:02,832 --> 00:13:05,146
he treats me with great kindness,

144
00:13:05,152 --> 00:13:08,346
but his work takes him
away a great deal.

145
00:13:08,352 --> 00:13:11,392
I look forward to spending
more time with him.

146
00:13:15,872 --> 00:13:18,426
I hope the dykes are holding.

147
00:13:18,432 --> 00:13:20,426
Please send my love to little...

My God, Johannes, what have you done?

151
00:13:30,072 --> 00:13:32,329
- What?
- You told me to find a...

152
00:13:32,338 --> 00:13:33,330
A what?

153
00:13:33,392 --> 00:13:36,872
A wedding gift. For you.

154
00:13:45,712 --> 00:13:48,306
A man at the docks had some
cabinets left over.

155
00:13:48,312 --> 00:13:51,232
I had it improved with
tortoiseshell and pewter inlays.

156
00:13:55,392 --> 00:13:57,066
But what is it?

157
00:13:57,072 --> 00:14:00,986
A house. Your house.

158
00:14:00,992 --> 00:14:03,032
This house.

159
00:14:05,032 --> 00:14:07,186
- How much?
- The frame was 2,000.

160
00:14:07,192 --> 00:14:10,146
Curtains and furnishings
brought it to three.

161
00:14:10,152 --> 00:14:14,306
3,000 guilders? A family
could live on that for years.

162
00:14:14,312 --> 00:14:17,586
If you had money to spare, you
should have given it to the Church.

- Enough of your piety.

Well, she doesn't like it. Neither do I.

165
00:14:25,432 --> 00:14:27,312
That's a bitch's taste for you.

166
00:14:34,952 --> 00:14:36,546
What about you?

167
00:14:36,552 --> 00:14:39,226
I hoped you might like it.

168
00:14:39,232 --> 00:14:43,426
What am I to do with it, exactly?

169
00:14:43,432 --> 00:14:45,032
You'll think of something.

170
00:15:02,592 --> 00:15:04,112
What are you doing?

171
00:15:06,032 --> 00:15:09,546
Nothing. Your door was open.

172
00:15:09,552 --> 00:15:11,232
I thought you'd prefer it closed.

173
00:15:18,672 --> 00:15:20,426
Smit's List.

174
00:15:20,432 --> 00:15:24,352
It's a register of all the crafts
people and businesses in the city.

175
00:15:25,872 --> 00:15:27,986
What for?

176
00:15:27,992 --> 00:15:30,146
To decorate your house.

177
00:15:30,152 --> 00:15:33,432
My brother will pay for everything.

178
00:15:36,192 --> 00:15:39,146
I thought you said it was
an extravagance.

00:15:47,192 --> 00:15:48,866
Miniaturist.

181
00:15:48,872 --> 00:15:51,946
Trained with the great Bruges
clockmaker Lucas Windelbreke.

182
00:15:51,952 --> 00:15:53,746
At the sign of the sun.

183
00:15:53,752 --> 00:15:57,546
"Dear Sir, I have a house of nine
rooms, on a miniature scale,

184
00:15:57,552 --> 00:15:59,866
"that is to be displayed in a cabinet.

185
00:15:59,872 --> 00:16:03,426
"I venture three requests to you
and await your response.

186
00:16:03,432 --> 00:16:06,546
"Item - one lute with strings.

187
00:16:06,552 --> 00:16:10,346
"Item - one cage,
suitable for a parakeet.

188
00:16:10,352 --> 00:16:12,552
"Item - one box of marzipan."

189
00:16:13,952 --> 00:16:15,752
How do I get to the Kalverstraat?

190
00:16:17,032 --> 00:16:19,146
What do you want there?

191
00:16:19,152 --> 00:16:22,426
Nothing. To leave a message for someone.

192
00:16:22,432 --> 00:16:24,146
Who?

193
00:16:24,152 --> 00:16:26,832
A craftsman, that's all.

194
00:16:29,352 --> 00:16:30,746
I'll come with you, Madame.

195
00:16:30,752 --> 00:16:33,232
There's no need.
I have a good sense of direction.

196
00:16:40,992 --> 00:16:42,832
Why didn't Otto come?

197
00:16:43,992 --> 00:16:46,792
- It's not easy for him.
- What do you mean?

198
00:16:48,152 --> 00:16:53,506
He was on a Portuguese slave ship.
16 years old.

199
00:16:53,512 --> 00:16:55,346
His parents were dead.

200
00:16:55,352 --> 00:16:58,466
The Seigneur saw him and bought him.

201
00:16:58,472 --> 00:17:00,786
You're saying he's a slave.

202
00:17:00,792 --> 00:17:03,792
No. But he owes the Seigneur his life.

203
00:17:08,512 --> 00:17:11,426
Oh, Marzipan!
Do you think we can get some?

204
00:17:11,432 --> 00:17:14,232
- Come on, Madame.
- Cornflower! Where've you been?

205
00:17:15,552 --> 00:17:18,232
Well, what you waiting for? Come in!

206
00:17:21,472 --> 00:17:24,392
Please, Madame, have a look around.

207
00:17:28,072 --> 00:17:31,066
The Meermans insisted
the Seigneur distribute it.

208
00:17:31,072 --> 00:17:33,146
They know he can get
a better price abroad.

209
00:17:33,152 --> 00:17:35,946
And Madame's all for it,
even though she hates sugar.

210
00:17:35,952 --> 00:17:38,066
Her and all the rest of the killjoys!

211
00:17:38,072 --> 00:17:40,946
I heard a rumour they want to ban
gingerbread men as papist -

212
00:17:40,952 --> 00:17:42,152
can you believe that?

213
00:17:43,912 --> 00:17:45,912
Madame, try anything you like.

214
00:17:47,912 --> 00:17:49,986
Why not sell it here?

215
00:17:49,992 --> 00:17:51,906
There's barely enough to go round.

216
00:17:51,912 --> 00:17:53,666
I think there's more going on.

217
00:17:53,672 --> 00:17:55,712
More? What do you mean...?

218
00:17:57,152 --> 00:18:00,546
Hanna! What are you doing, woman?

219
00:18:00,552 --> 00:18:03,152
I must go. I'll see you soon,
Cornflower.

220
00:18:10,832 --> 00:18:12,592
There it is.

221
00:18:14,032 --> 00:18:16,186
The sign of the sun.

222
00:18:16,192 --> 00:18:17,992
I've never noticed that before...

223
00:18:21,032 --> 00:18:22,512
Hello?

224
00:18:23,952 --> 00:18:25,592
Hello?

225
00:18:46,152 --> 00:18:47,946
Madame!

226
00:18:47,952 --> 00:18:50,152
I don't think there's anyone here,
Madame.

227
00:19:08,432 --> 00:19:10,152
What happened to the cabinet?

228
00:19:25,312 --> 00:19:27,826
It couldn't stay in the hallway.

229
00:19:27,832 --> 00:19:29,832
It was taking up all the light.

230
00:19:50,112 --> 00:19:52,952
DOG BARKS

231
00:19:55,392 --> 00:19:57,672
KNOCKING ON DOOR

232
00:19:58,792 --> 00:20:01,026
Otto! Cornelia! The door.

233
00:20:01,032 --> 00:20:03,386
KNOCKING CONTINUES

234
00:20:03,392 --> 00:20:06,952
DOG BARKS

235
00:20:15,392 --> 00:20:17,232
Hello.

236
00:20:19,392 --> 00:20:21,306
What the hell are you doing here?

237
00:20:21,312 --> 00:20:24,906
A package. For Nella Oortman.

238
00:20:24,912 --> 00:20:26,632
So, this is your new wife?

239
00:20:29,632 --> 00:20:30,992
Jack Philips, Madame.

240
00:20:32,832 --> 00:20:34,792
Next time, use the lower entrance.

241
00:20:38,032 --> 00:20:39,552
Who was it, Seigneur?

242
00:20:40,712 --> 00:20:42,192
No-one, Otto. No-one.

243
00:20:43,752 --> 00:20:45,912
A delivery, that's all.

244
00:20:50,112 --> 00:20:51,912
What is it in the parcel?

245
00:20:53,432 --> 00:20:55,992
Just some things for the cabinet
you bought me.

246
00:21:14,712 --> 00:21:18,032
"Every woman is the architect
of her own fortune."

247
00:21:23,032 --> 00:21:25,432
Item - one lute with strings.

248
00:21:33,912 --> 00:21:37,472
Item - one cage,
suitable for a parakeet.

249
00:21:47,112 --> 00:21:49,752
Item - one box of marzipan.

250
00:23:03,912 --> 00:23:06,506
"Sir, I thank you for the items
I requested.

251
00:23:06,512 --> 00:23:08,546
"Your craftsmanship is exceptional.

252
00:23:08,552 --> 00:23:10,346
"However, I made no
request for a cradle,

253
00:23:10,352 --> 00:23:13,106
"nor do I understand why you would
wish to send one.

254
00:23:13,112 --> 00:23:15,866
"I must therefore curtail
our transactions forthwith.

255
00:23:15,872 --> 00:23:17,952
"Yours in good faith,
Petronella Brandt."

256
00:23:26,632 --> 00:23:28,586
For the craftsman again?

257
00:23:28,592 --> 00:23:31,032
Don't open it. No, Madame.

258
00:23:37,592 --> 00:23:40,066
There you are.
But where on earth is Cornelia?

259
00:23:40,072 --> 00:23:41,706
You need to start getting ready.

260
00:23:41,712 --> 00:23:43,306
Ready? For what?

261
00:23:43,312 --> 00:23:46,266
Johannes is taking you to a feast
at the Guild of Silversmiths.

262
00:23:46,272 --> 00:23:48,306
Why are the curtains closed?

263
00:23:48,312 --> 00:23:51,466
The sunlight was too bright, that's all.

264
00:23:51,472 --> 00:23:54,232
We keep them open during the daylight.

265
00:23:58,312 --> 00:24:02,146
Otherwise people will think
we have something to hide.

266
00:24:02,152 --> 00:24:04,392
The feast.

267
00:24:05,512 --> 00:24:07,626
Was it his idea?

268
00:24:07,632 --> 00:24:10,272
We agreed it was appropriate you
should attend.

269
00:24:16,752 --> 00:24:18,112
You look wonderful.

270
00:24:21,152 --> 00:24:24,992
See, Marin, all that money I spent
on dresses was worth it after all.

271
00:24:26,752 --> 00:24:28,746
Why aren't you coming?

272
00:24:28,752 --> 00:24:32,346
I think it is better you're seen
with your wife, don't you?

273
00:24:32,352 --> 00:24:35,066
You must remember to invite
the Meermans to dinner.

274
00:24:35,072 --> 00:24:36,912
All right. Nella, let's go.

275
00:24:48,952 --> 00:24:52,872
Thank you... for bringing me.

276
00:24:54,552 --> 00:24:58,146
You don't have to thank me.

277
00:24:58,152 --> 00:25:00,466
Then whom should I thank?

278
00:25:00,472 --> 00:25:02,546
I mean, you're my wife.

279
00:25:02,552 --> 00:25:05,392
You shouldn't have to thank me
for taking you somewhere.

280
00:25:07,112 --> 00:25:09,746
Will the Meermans be there?

281
00:25:09,752 --> 00:25:14,346
Marin seems very keen for you to
sell Frans Meermans' sugar.

282
00:25:14,352 --> 00:25:16,392
It's not his.

283
00:25:17,552 --> 00:25:18,992
It's his wife's.

284
00:25:21,032 --> 00:25:25,386
She sees it as a passport to what
she's always wanted -

285
00:25:25,392 --> 00:25:28,226
the power and position
Frans couldn't give her -

286
00:25:28,232 --> 00:25:30,792
but Marin doesn't understand
the complications.

287
00:25:32,312 --> 00:25:33,832
Which are?

288
00:25:34,872 --> 00:25:38,672
Exactly what he and Agnes will do
with the power once they have it.

289
00:25:48,552 --> 00:25:50,152
Turn around.

290
00:25:59,512 --> 00:26:01,272
Close your eyes.

291
00:26:16,392 --> 00:26:18,832
Smile, and don't say anything.

292
00:26:22,992 --> 00:26:26,072
The Guilds have monopoly on trade,
and set the prices.

293
00:26:29,392 --> 00:26:31,786
The silversmiths' is one of the richest.

294
00:26:31,792 --> 00:26:34,386
For a merchant like me,
who works outside the guilds,

295
00:26:34,392 --> 00:26:37,472
attendance is not simply
a mark of respect, but a duty.

296
00:26:47,792 --> 00:26:49,352
Here.

297
00:27:04,872 --> 00:27:09,032
Did you ever think food is where we
truly find ourselves?

298
00:27:11,312 --> 00:27:12,706
You see this?

299
00:27:12,712 --> 00:27:15,306
Cumin seeds studding a new cheese

300
00:27:15,312 --> 00:27:17,872
remind me I am capable of delight.

301
00:27:22,512 --> 00:27:26,712
Delft butter, so fine and creamy...

302
00:27:27,952 --> 00:27:29,232
Figs...

303
00:27:33,392 --> 00:27:39,032
..and sour cream,
taking me back to childhood...

304
00:27:41,672 --> 00:27:44,192
..only the taste of which
I now remember.

305
00:27:49,152 --> 00:27:50,432
You?

306
00:27:52,232 --> 00:27:55,472
My mother used to make
marzipan into rolls.

307
00:27:56,712 --> 00:27:59,592
And the smell coming from the kitchen...

308
00:28:02,072 --> 00:28:03,592
..it made my heart race.

309
00:28:04,872 --> 00:28:06,392
Better than herrings.

310
00:28:08,432 --> 00:28:10,072
What do you eat out at sea?

311
00:28:15,552 --> 00:28:16,986
Other men.

312
00:28:16,992 --> 00:28:19,586
BAH!

313
00:28:19,592 --> 00:28:22,192
THEY LAUGH

314
00:28:30,912 --> 00:28:32,592
Johannes! Over here!

315
00:28:34,992 --> 00:28:37,072
Business. Won't be long.

316
00:28:43,352 --> 00:28:45,154
I see Brandt keeps the same standard

317
00:28:45,161 --> 00:28:47,506
of wife as he does everything else.

318
00:28:47,512 --> 00:28:49,106
Agnes Meermans.

319
00:28:49,112 --> 00:28:51,346
Petronella, isn't it?

320
00:28:51,352 --> 00:28:55,186
Now tell me, however did Marin find you?

321
00:28:55,192 --> 00:28:59,106
Marin? What do you mean?

322
00:28:59,112 --> 00:29:04,146
A bride for Johannes.
She's been searching for so long.

323
00:29:04,152 --> 00:29:07,872
They're so close, of course,
brother and sister.

324
00:29:10,112 --> 00:29:12,912
- Sometimes we wondered if...
- Agnes, please...

325
00:29:14,272 --> 00:29:17,506
Frans, this is Petronella Brandt.

326
00:29:17,512 --> 00:29:20,512
Oh, I thought she was a silversmith.

327
00:29:21,712 --> 00:29:24,266
Where's Johannes? I thought
we were going to talk to him.

328
00:29:24,272 --> 00:29:26,466
Here he comes. Madame Meermans.

329
00:29:26,472 --> 00:29:30,746
Seigneur. I see you are working
your usual magic this evening.

330
00:29:30,752 --> 00:29:32,986
No magic, Madame. Just me.

331
00:29:32,992 --> 00:29:36,586
- About the sugar, Johannes.
- I have it in hand.

332
00:29:36,592 --> 00:29:38,386
We never doubted.

333
00:29:38,392 --> 00:29:41,786
Only, er, when will it sell,
do you think?

334
00:29:41,792 --> 00:29:43,386
To get the best price takes time.

335
00:29:43,392 --> 00:29:45,386
What with the black markets in the east,

336
00:29:45,392 --> 00:29:47,866
and the adulterers at home,
people are craving good product.

337
00:29:47,872 --> 00:29:49,786
But I will not
take your sugar to the bourse.

338
00:29:49,792 --> 00:29:52,106
The trading floor is a circus,
the market rigged.

339
00:29:52,112 --> 00:29:54,426
You intend to sell it abroad?

340
00:29:54,432 --> 00:29:56,506
I sail to Venice shortly.

341
00:29:56,512 --> 00:29:57,792
Papists?

342
00:29:59,112 --> 00:30:01,506
Of course, if you prefer, we can
dump it all here in Amsterdam,

343
00:30:01,512 --> 00:30:03,368
flood the market, and
realise only a quarter of

344
00:30:03,375 --> 00:30:05,146
its true value. The
choice is entirely yours.

345
00:30:05,152 --> 00:30:09,186
You're the expert. Yes, I am.

346
00:30:09,192 --> 00:30:11,706
Come, Agnes. There's Slabbaert.

347
00:30:11,712 --> 00:30:13,866
We should say hello.

348
00:30:13,872 --> 00:30:15,112
God be with you.

349
00:30:16,792 --> 00:30:18,072
And you.

350
00:30:24,672 --> 00:30:26,786
Who are they?

351
00:30:26,792 --> 00:30:31,392
Schout and Schepenbank.
Judge and jury here in Amsterdam.

352
00:30:32,832 --> 00:30:35,226
Why do they look at you like that?

353
00:30:35,232 --> 00:30:37,346
Because they don't control me.

354
00:30:37,352 --> 00:30:40,352
Do they want to? Control you?

355
00:30:41,952 --> 00:30:44,346
No.

356
00:30:44,352 --> 00:30:46,312
They want to destroy me.

357
00:30:57,552 --> 00:30:59,306
You must be tired. Go to bed.

358
00:30:59,312 --> 00:31:00,946
I'm...

359
00:31:00,952 --> 00:31:04,232
..not tired, Johannes.

360
00:31:07,672 --> 00:31:08,872
Still...

361
00:31:11,672 --> 00:31:14,232
..I have to make
notes on the men I met tonight.

362
00:31:31,392 --> 00:31:33,106
What do you want?

363
00:31:33,112 --> 00:31:34,992
What do you think I want, Johannes?

364
00:31:37,992 --> 00:31:40,146
I want to be your wife.

365
00:31:40,152 --> 00:31:42,386
You are my wife.

366
00:31:42,392 --> 00:31:46,152
No. As far as I can tell I'm just...

367
00:31:47,552 --> 00:31:48,992
..someone you own.

368
00:31:51,192 --> 00:31:54,512
Someone who's useful to you
for purposes I can only guess at.

369
00:31:57,152 --> 00:32:01,186
Like a dog, like Otto.

370
00:32:01,192 --> 00:32:03,912
- Nella, please...
- I've been here 11 days, Johannes.

371
00:32:05,032 --> 00:32:07,512
Longer than it took God to
make the world.

372
00:32:10,152 --> 00:32:13,306
Until tonight,
you've barely spoken to me.

373
00:32:13,312 --> 00:32:15,272
You're right.

374
00:32:16,592 --> 00:32:19,672
I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you.

375
00:32:23,112 --> 00:32:24,512
Come.

376
00:33:23,312 --> 00:33:25,906
Do I disgust you that much?

377
00:33:25,912 --> 00:33:27,466
You do not disgust me.

378
00:33:27,472 --> 00:33:30,912
- You cannot bear me to touch you.
- It's not that.

379
00:33:32,592 --> 00:33:36,432
I have to share you with her.
Is that it?

380
00:33:42,072 --> 00:33:43,478
I think you'd better leave before one

381
00:33:43,485 --> 00:33:45,226
of us says something we both regret.

382
00:33:45,232 --> 00:33:47,826
- No, no, Johannes, I know...
- Go. Get out!

383
00:33:47,832 --> 00:33:49,432
SHE SOBS

384
00:34:14,952 --> 00:34:16,306
Oh, no.

385
00:34:16,312 --> 00:34:18,706
Come on, Madame.
You can't stay in bed all day.

386
00:34:18,712 --> 00:34:20,026
Madame Marin wants us

387
00:34:20,032 --> 00:34:24,066
all to go to church to hear
Pastor Pellicorne preach.

388
00:34:24,072 --> 00:34:26,266
And there's something for you.

389
00:34:26,272 --> 00:34:29,786
It must be from the artisan.
Whatever it was you ordered.

390
00:34:29,792 --> 00:34:31,552
But I didn't order anything.

391
00:34:32,832 --> 00:34:36,032
Well, then. All the more
reason to find out what's inside.

392
00:36:02,032 --> 00:36:05,352
Look! They brought the savage.

393
00:36:19,032 --> 00:36:22,032
Seigneur, Madame Meermans.

394
00:36:23,192 --> 00:36:24,872
Where is your brother?

395
00:36:25,992 --> 00:36:28,352
Did Johannes invite you to dine with us?

396
00:36:30,032 --> 00:36:31,866
No, he did not.

397
00:36:31,872 --> 00:36:33,712
But you will come, won't you?

398
00:36:35,032 --> 00:36:38,312
Shouldn't his wife be the one who
issues the invitation?

399
00:36:39,752 --> 00:36:42,472
Please, do come tomorrow.

400
00:36:44,752 --> 00:36:46,272
We would be honoured.

401
00:36:47,552 --> 00:36:49,312
Come, let us take our place.

402
00:36:57,952 --> 00:37:03,226
Adultery! Usury! Fornication!

403
00:37:03,232 --> 00:37:09,186
And fouler deeds,
too degraded to name in God's house!

404
00:37:09,192 --> 00:37:13,786
Do I talk of Sodom? Of Gomorrah?

405
00:37:13,792 --> 00:37:17,546
No, I speak of Amsterdam!

406
00:37:17,552 --> 00:37:22,826
A city of closed doors,
through which no man can see.

407
00:37:22,832 --> 00:37:25,306
Nella! Please!

408
00:37:25,312 --> 00:37:27,026
But God sees!

409
00:37:27,032 --> 00:37:30,146
For too long we have tolerated
the iniquities of our fellow men.

410
00:37:30,152 --> 00:37:33,426
But a storm is coming.

411
00:37:33,432 --> 00:37:34,826
So...

412
00:37:34,832 --> 00:37:41,466
..look now into your own hearts

413
00:37:41,472 --> 00:37:45,706
and the hearts of your neighbours,

414
00:37:45,712 --> 00:37:49,872
and consider how you have sinned.

415
00:37:50,992 --> 00:37:53,312
Marin. Marin, are you quite well?

416
00:37:54,632 --> 00:37:58,312
Husbands, love your wives.

417
00:39:18,552 --> 00:39:20,272
Only two of them.

418
00:39:32,232 --> 00:39:33,432
What are you doing?

419
00:39:38,832 --> 00:39:40,666
Where did you get these?

420
00:39:40,672 --> 00:39:44,066
A miniaturist. I don't know their name.

421
00:39:44,072 --> 00:39:46,706
Marin gave me Smit's List.
It was the only one in there.

422
00:39:46,712 --> 00:39:49,786
- What did you tell them?
- Nothing.

423
00:39:49,792 --> 00:39:51,266
But you ordered these.

424
00:39:51,272 --> 00:39:54,106
No. No, I didn't order these.

425
00:39:54,112 --> 00:39:57,066
I only ordered the lute,
the cage and the marzipan.

426
00:39:57,072 --> 00:39:59,066
These just... came.

427
00:39:59,072 --> 00:40:01,106
How did they know what to make?

428
00:40:01,112 --> 00:40:03,026
I don't know.

429
00:40:03,032 --> 00:40:04,432
No more.

430
00:40:06,672 --> 00:40:08,626
No more, you understand?

431
00:40:08,632 --> 00:40:11,312
I think you're forgetting your place.

432
00:40:13,712 --> 00:40:15,466
What is that?

433
00:40:15,472 --> 00:40:17,146
As a servant.

434
00:40:17,152 --> 00:40:21,112
My place is to protect this house,
and all in it, including you.

435
00:40:28,152 --> 00:40:31,192
We stand or fall together.

436
00:40:39,632 --> 00:40:42,706
A wonderful sermon
from Pastor Pellicorne on Sunday,

437
00:40:42,712 --> 00:40:44,426
don't you think?

438
00:40:44,432 --> 00:40:48,746
Oh, but of course,
you missed it, Johannes.

439
00:40:48,752 --> 00:40:49,792
Let me guess.

440
00:40:50,832 --> 00:40:52,946
He offers absolution for your own sins,

441
00:40:52,952 --> 00:40:56,186
but only if you confess
those of your neighbours.

442
00:40:56,192 --> 00:40:59,586
Shall we try the sugar?

443
00:40:59,592 --> 00:41:00,952
Cornelia?

444
00:41:11,072 --> 00:41:12,672
Allow me.

445
00:41:40,112 --> 00:41:41,952
Exquisite.

446
00:41:48,912 --> 00:41:51,752
Cornelia, Otto, what do you think?

447
00:42:03,352 --> 00:42:06,112
Very good, Seigneur. Delicious.

448
00:42:13,632 --> 00:42:15,026
Mmm!

449
00:42:15,032 --> 00:42:19,826
God be thanked, you're going
to make our fortunes, Brandt!

450
00:42:19,832 --> 00:42:21,506
When do you go to Venice?

451
00:42:21,512 --> 00:42:23,226
I'll be gone within the month.

452
00:42:23,232 --> 00:42:25,626
I have to know.

453
00:42:25,632 --> 00:42:28,466
What did Brandt get
you for a wedding gift?

454
00:42:28,472 --> 00:42:31,026
AGNES: I want one of my own.

455
00:42:31,032 --> 00:42:33,586
And I want mine to be better than hers.

456
00:42:33,592 --> 00:42:37,712
- Thank the Lord they've gone.
- Clear up in the morning.

457
00:42:44,632 --> 00:42:47,992
MUFFLED SHOUTING

458
00:43:24,912 --> 00:43:27,386
MARIN AND JOHANNES ARGUE

459
00:43:27,392 --> 00:43:31,352
- If you had only consented...
- Why should I...

460
00:45:07,152 --> 00:45:11,106
"My darling, I love you
like the ever-changing sea,

461
00:45:11,112 --> 00:45:13,826
"always different, and always moving

462
00:45:13,832 --> 00:45:17,106
"You are sunlight through a window
which I stand in, warmed.

463
00:45:17,112 --> 00:45:19,386
"One touch lasts a thousand hours.

464
00:45:19,392 --> 00:45:21,386
"I love you from the bottom
of my heart..."

465
00:45:21,392 --> 00:45:22,592
Give it to me.

466
00:45:24,752 --> 00:45:27,472
Marin, I'm sorry.

467
00:45:28,552 --> 00:45:30,752
I said give it to me.

468
00:45:32,192 --> 00:45:34,386
Marin, Marin, let go of me.

469
00:45:34,392 --> 00:45:36,626
Marin, you're hurting me!

470
00:45:36,632 --> 00:45:39,352
Get out! Johannes will hear of this!

471
00:46:19,152 --> 00:46:21,146
Where is everyone?

472
00:46:21,152 --> 00:46:24,346
Madame Marin is unwell.
I took her her breakfast, but she...

473
00:46:24,352 --> 00:46:26,026
And Johannes?

474
00:46:26,032 --> 00:46:28,826
He left early for his office.

475
00:46:28,832 --> 00:46:32,272
No! Tell me! Where did he go last night?

476
00:46:33,432 --> 00:46:36,586
He didn't come back!
And why is Marin so worried?

477
00:46:36,592 --> 00:46:39,352
I told you. He went to his office.

478
00:46:41,472 --> 00:46:45,586
No. No, you're lying to me.

479
00:46:45,592 --> 00:46:49,586
Where are you going, Madame?
It isn't even eight o'clock!

480
00:46:49,592 --> 00:46:51,946
You should stay here.

481
00:46:51,952 --> 00:46:54,472
I can go wherever I want.

482
00:46:56,512 --> 00:46:59,512
Otto! Otto!

483
00:47:48,752 --> 00:47:50,312
Johannes.

484
00:48:01,192 --> 00:48:04,632
GASPING

485
00:48:10,992 --> 00:48:12,512
Oh!

486
00:48:28,272 --> 00:48:30,592
No, stop it, stop...

487
00:48:34,472 --> 00:48:37,032
CHIRPING

488
00:48:40,592 --> 00:48:42,192
I brought your creature.

489
00:48:43,592 --> 00:48:47,146
There are rose water wafers with
cinnamon and ginger.

490
00:48:47,152 --> 00:48:48,546
Cornelia made them specially.

491
00:48:48,552 --> 00:48:51,866
- You think you can bribe me?
- You haven't eaten in three days.

492
00:48:51,872 --> 00:48:55,546
- Because you drugged me.
- You were beside yourself.

493
00:48:55,552 --> 00:48:57,706
I will not be your prisoner.

494
00:48:57,712 --> 00:49:00,426
Don't be ridiculous. Eat.
And then we can talk.

495
00:49:00,432 --> 00:49:03,746
Enough of your orders, Marin.
I understand it all.

496
00:49:03,752 --> 00:49:05,192
Your brother is...

497
00:49:07,742 --> 00:49:09,422
..is a sodomite.

498
00:49:13,509 --> 00:49:15,949
He is unlike most husbands, it's true.

499
00:49:17,989 --> 00:49:19,469
You knew?

500
00:49:24,189 --> 00:49:25,583
You all knew.

501
00:49:25,589 --> 00:49:28,183
Dear God, I am your fool.

502
00:49:28,189 --> 00:49:30,629
I have been a fool from the moment
I arrived here.

503
00:49:32,389 --> 00:49:34,463
We never laughed at you. Ever.

504
00:49:34,469 --> 00:49:36,623
You knew he would never love me.

505
00:49:36,629 --> 00:49:38,183
He likes you.

506
00:49:38,189 --> 00:49:41,909
Like a pet. Like the dog,
Rzecki, only less so.

507
00:49:43,469 --> 00:49:45,343
It's true, isn't it?

508
00:49:45,349 --> 00:49:48,743
He thinks less of me than his dog.

509
00:49:48,749 --> 00:49:51,143
I cannot forgive this... trick.

510
00:49:51,149 --> 00:49:53,263
You knew what this would be like for me.

511
00:49:53,269 --> 00:49:56,143
How can I be happy with a man
who is going to burn in Hell?

512
00:49:56,149 --> 00:49:57,823
Your father left you paupers.

513
00:49:57,829 --> 00:50:00,103
It was a kindness to bring you here.

514
00:50:00,109 --> 00:50:01,743
You would have ended up a farmer's wife.

515
00:50:01,749 --> 00:50:03,903
- Who might have loved me.
- And in ten years,

516
00:50:03,909 --> 00:50:06,783
when your hands are red raw with
children squealing to be fed?

517
00:50:06,789 --> 00:50:08,583
At least I would have been
a proper woman.

518
00:50:08,589 --> 00:50:11,069
You can be a proper woman
without spawning brats.

519
00:50:13,669 --> 00:50:15,423
What are you doing?

520
00:50:15,429 --> 00:50:17,583
There's nothing for me here.
There never was.

521
00:50:17,589 --> 00:50:19,943
It was a mistake to come.

522
00:50:19,949 --> 00:50:22,983
What will you tell them in
Assendelft, Nella? Words are water.

523
00:50:22,989 --> 00:50:24,303
One drop could drown us all.

524
00:50:24,309 --> 00:50:25,743
I don't expect you to care about me,

525
00:50:25,749 --> 00:50:27,663
but what will happen to Otto
and Cornelia?

526
00:50:27,669 --> 00:50:29,223
They are not my responsibility.

527
00:50:29,229 --> 00:50:30,663
But you are mistress of this house.

528
00:50:30,669 --> 00:50:32,543
Whose responsibility do you
think they are?

529
00:50:32,549 --> 00:50:35,183
Well, then perhaps
I should just tell them the truth.

530
00:50:35,189 --> 00:50:37,983
Do you know what they do to
men like my brother?

531
00:50:37,989 --> 00:50:39,503
They drown them.

532
00:50:39,509 --> 00:50:41,983
The holy magistrate will tie
weights around their necks

533
00:50:41,989 --> 00:50:43,503
and push them in the water.

534
00:50:43,509 --> 00:50:45,183
You would be signing his death warrant.

535
00:50:45,189 --> 00:50:46,309
Is that what you want?

536
00:51:07,709 --> 00:51:09,749
Go. Spread your wings!

537
00:51:13,789 --> 00:51:15,309
Madame!

538
00:51:22,549 --> 00:51:26,063
What are they going to do?

539
00:51:26,069 --> 00:51:28,303
Throw me out?

540
00:51:28,309 --> 00:51:30,463
This is your home now, Madame.

541
00:51:30,469 --> 00:51:33,029
How can this house of secrets ever
be called a home?

542
00:51:36,029 --> 00:51:38,069
What is there for you in Assendelft?

543
00:51:39,509 --> 00:51:42,783
From what I hear, there's more cows
than there are people.

544
00:51:42,789 --> 00:51:44,069
What do I have here?

545
00:51:47,029 --> 00:51:50,103
You have a friend, Madame.

546
00:51:50,109 --> 00:51:51,909
And more than just one.

547
00:51:54,069 --> 00:51:57,109
Cornelia, did Marin love someone once?

548
00:52:03,789 --> 00:52:07,749
Why do you think Agnes Meermans
hates Marin so much?

549
00:52:09,069 --> 00:52:11,823
Marin stole her husband's heart.

550
00:52:11,829 --> 00:52:12,869
Frans?

551
00:52:15,309 --> 00:52:18,823
Madame Marin was little more than
a child when she first met him.

552
00:52:18,829 --> 00:52:21,063
He was the Seigneur's friend,

553
00:52:21,069 --> 00:52:23,989
perhaps 18, and Marin was 11 or so.

554
00:52:25,109 --> 00:52:28,263
She first saw him
at the Feast of St Nicholas.

555
00:52:28,269 --> 00:52:31,943
She thought
he was a prince, so handsome.

556
00:52:31,949 --> 00:52:34,183
He eats too much now, but back then...

557
00:52:34,189 --> 00:52:37,943
You were barely a child then!
How do you know all of this?

558
00:52:37,949 --> 00:52:39,789
Keyholes, Madame.

559
00:52:40,829 --> 00:52:44,263
When she was 15, the Seigneur
took his first ship out to Batavia.

560
00:52:44,269 --> 00:52:49,023
Frans stayed here - he was seasick -
but without a chaperone,

561
00:52:49,029 --> 00:52:50,663
she couldn't meet him.

562
00:52:50,669 --> 00:52:54,383
Then, when Marin was 20, and the
Seigneur had returned a rich man,

563
00:52:54,389 --> 00:52:57,869
Frans came to the house
and asked for her hand in marriage.

564
00:52:58,869 --> 00:53:00,429
And Johannes...

565
00:53:02,949 --> 00:53:04,903
Refused him utterly.

566
00:53:04,909 --> 00:53:09,463
But why? He loved her enough
to wait five years.

567
00:53:09,469 --> 00:53:13,429
Meermans was handsome enough, but
he didn't have a good reputation.

568
00:53:14,509 --> 00:53:16,629
Did Marin find out what
Johannes had done?

569
00:53:17,869 --> 00:53:19,743
Eventually.

570
00:53:19,749 --> 00:53:22,863
But by then Frans had married Agnes.

571
00:53:22,869 --> 00:53:25,789
So he's married to Agnes,
but he still loves Marin?

572
00:53:28,949 --> 00:53:33,863
He sends her gifts every
St Nicholas Day, the day they met.

573
00:53:33,869 --> 00:53:37,229
He never puts his name,
but we all know they're from him.

574
00:53:40,549 --> 00:53:42,549
Peebo.

575
00:53:43,989 --> 00:53:46,623
Peebo, where are you?

576
00:53:46,629 --> 00:53:48,343
Peebo.

577
00:53:48,349 --> 00:53:50,909
Peebo where are...

578
00:53:57,029 --> 00:53:59,749
No, no, no, no, no, no.

579
00:54:10,869 --> 00:54:12,189
Peebo!

580
00:54:14,669 --> 00:54:16,269
Peebo!

581
00:54:31,629 --> 00:54:32,943
Hello?

582
00:54:32,949 --> 00:54:34,189
Wait!

583
00:54:37,429 --> 00:54:39,423
Wait!

584
00:54:39,429 --> 00:54:41,709
Open up! St George's Militia.

585
00:54:45,349 --> 00:54:46,903
Nothing, nothing at all.

586
00:54:46,909 --> 00:54:48,669
No, there's nobody here.

587
00:54:52,629 --> 00:54:55,103
I just want to talk to you.
What are you doing?

588
00:54:55,109 --> 00:54:57,703
Madame, you are needed
back in the house.

589
00:54:57,709 --> 00:54:59,343
What are you talking about?

590
00:54:59,349 --> 00:55:02,623
We wondered where you had gone,
Madame. Madame Marin was worried.

591
00:55:02,629 --> 00:55:05,263
I was looking for Peebo.

592
00:55:05,269 --> 00:55:07,029
We will help you find him.

593
00:55:27,189 --> 00:55:30,509
"Blue periwinkle for early friends,
Persicaria for restoration.

594
00:55:32,269 --> 00:55:35,349
"I would buy you a new bird but..."
It would pale in imitation.

595
00:55:36,549 --> 00:55:41,709
Do you think I can be bought with
a cabinet, or dresses, or flowers?

596
00:55:43,029 --> 00:55:46,109
- I'm not trying to buy you.
- No, because you already succeeded.

597
00:55:47,989 --> 00:55:51,583
Did she know, my mother,
when she sold me?

598
00:55:51,589 --> 00:55:56,303
Nella, please. The fault is mine.
Don't blame anyone else.

599
00:55:56,309 --> 00:56:00,103
If they find out, they will drown you.

600
00:56:00,109 --> 00:56:02,223
I've spent my entire life on the sea.

601
00:56:02,229 --> 00:56:04,663
- I am not afraid of drowning.
- And what about me?

602
00:56:04,669 --> 00:56:07,949
You were drowning in Assendelft.
Here you are safe, warm and dry.

603
00:56:09,909 --> 00:56:13,823
I wanted love. Not safety.

604
00:56:13,829 --> 00:56:15,149
As did I.

605
00:56:17,149 --> 00:56:20,829
Always. You see?

606
00:56:22,509 --> 00:56:24,589
The truth is...

607
00:56:26,229 --> 00:56:28,663
..you and I,

608
00:56:28,669 --> 00:56:32,349
we are more alike than we are different.

609
00:56:35,429 --> 00:56:39,423
Marin, Cornelia, Otto, they wish
for love, but value safety more.

610
00:56:39,429 --> 00:56:43,869
You and I, our hearts
are constructed differently.

611
00:56:49,309 --> 00:56:53,829
What made you like this, do you think?

612
00:56:55,749 --> 00:56:57,029
Nothing made me.

613
00:56:59,989 --> 00:57:02,389
It was in my soul from the beginning.

614
00:57:05,189 --> 00:57:09,229
They could cut me open from head to
foot and still not get it out.

615
00:57:18,429 --> 00:57:19,983
Here...

616
00:57:19,989 --> 00:57:22,829
Please, they're yours.
A peace offering, nothing more.

617
00:57:28,309 --> 00:57:31,103
If you wish to leave,
I will not stop you.

618
00:57:31,109 --> 00:57:34,023
Otto will accompany you back
to Assendelft,

619
00:57:34,029 --> 00:57:36,663
with enough to
settle your family's debts.

620
00:57:36,669 --> 00:57:37,983
The marriage can be annulled.

621
00:57:37,989 --> 00:57:39,749
You would be free to marry another.

622
00:57:41,989 --> 00:57:43,629
What about the others?

623
00:57:45,269 --> 00:57:46,789
They are not your concern.

624
00:57:50,509 --> 00:57:51,709
And what about you?

625
00:57:58,989 --> 00:58:00,389
I would like you to stay.

626
00:58:10,909 --> 00:58:16,349
If I do, it will not be
because you gave me flowers.

627
00:58:19,629 --> 00:58:21,509
But because this is my home.

628
00:58:24,429 --> 00:58:29,109
And because you swear to tell me the
truth about everything from now on.

629
00:58:30,749 --> 00:58:32,869
Everything, Johannes.

630
00:58:41,069 --> 00:58:44,023
No more secrets.

631
00:58:44,029 --> 00:58:46,989
You have my word.

632
00:58:49,389 --> 00:58:51,623
Was it Jack who delivered this?

633
00:58:51,629 --> 00:58:53,989
It was there
when I went to wash the front steps.

634
00:58:55,669 --> 00:58:57,223
What's in it?

635
00:58:57,229 --> 00:58:58,829
Just some things for my cabinet.

636
00:59:02,269 --> 00:59:04,189
You may go, Cornelia.

637
00:59:25,549 --> 00:59:27,549
"Things can change."

638
01:00:13,669 --> 01:00:18,429
Cornelia! You're sure you didn't see
who delivered that package?

639
01:00:19,389 --> 01:00:20,869
No, Madame. I told you.

640
01:00:22,349 --> 01:00:25,103
It's November now!

641
01:00:25,109 --> 01:00:26,989
By December it'll be too late.

642
01:00:28,229 --> 01:00:32,303
Not to mention the damp
in the warehouse spoiling the sugar.

643
01:00:32,309 --> 01:00:34,983
What about the damp in my bones,
boat-hopping in that weather?

644
01:00:34,989 --> 01:00:37,223
But you were the one who told them
to sell it.

645
01:00:37,229 --> 01:00:39,469
- Get someone else.
- If you are even thinking...

646
01:00:41,989 --> 01:00:46,943
Nella. Did you... Did you have
any luck with your parakeet?

647
01:00:46,949 --> 01:00:49,029
Where are you going?

648
01:00:51,149 --> 01:00:55,903
Venice. To sell Agnes' sugar.

649
01:00:55,909 --> 01:00:57,583
We thought it'd be best.

650
01:00:57,589 --> 01:01:00,549
For whom? For all of us.

651
01:01:12,229 --> 01:01:14,029
Do you have the sample loaves?

652
01:01:16,749 --> 01:01:18,943
My word is enough.

653
01:01:18,949 --> 01:01:21,823
Why don't you take her?

654
01:01:21,829 --> 01:01:24,109
She'd only get in the way.

655
01:01:28,909 --> 01:01:30,429
Look after her while I'm gone.

656
01:01:44,029 --> 01:01:45,349
Goodbye.

657
01:01:46,269 --> 01:01:47,909
You put the flowers in your hair.

658
01:01:51,069 --> 01:01:52,429
For restoration.

659
01:02:10,349 --> 01:02:12,743
Didn't you want to see Venice?

660
01:02:12,749 --> 01:02:16,469
I've been, Madame. Once is
enough to see the Doge's palace.

661
01:02:20,109 --> 01:02:21,269
He could have taken me.

662
01:02:29,989 --> 01:02:31,829
What are you trying to do to us?

663
01:02:34,069 --> 01:02:35,789
Who have you told about us?

664
01:02:37,669 --> 01:02:40,743
Nobody. No, you don't understand...

665
01:02:40,749 --> 01:02:43,383
Dogs and furniture, I understand.

666
01:02:43,389 --> 01:02:44,823
But Jack Philips?

667
01:02:44,829 --> 01:02:47,709
What are you doing? Marin, no.

668
01:02:50,909 --> 01:02:53,103
You shouldn't have done that.

669
01:02:53,109 --> 01:02:55,063
Don't play with fire, Petronella.

670
01:02:55,069 --> 01:02:57,389
Or you'll get burned along with
the rest of us.

671
01:03:23,149 --> 01:03:26,909
SOBBING

672
01:03:33,829 --> 01:03:37,109
SOBBING CONTINUES

673
01:03:43,789 --> 01:03:46,429
SHE GASPS

674
01:05:00,349 --> 01:05:03,429
DOG BARKS

675
01:05:21,309 --> 01:05:23,543
What are you doing here?

676
01:05:23,549 --> 01:05:26,263
Get out. Get out!

677
01:05:26,269 --> 01:05:28,589
Wait. Wait.

678
01:05:33,269 --> 01:05:34,789
I'm back on deliveries.

679
01:05:36,309 --> 01:05:38,149
I have something for you, Madame.

680
01:05:41,349 --> 01:05:44,583
You have no right to be here.
Johannes said...

681
01:05:44,589 --> 01:05:49,103
You squeal like a mouse.
I need to see him.

682
01:05:49,109 --> 01:05:50,983
Is he back yet? Johannes!

683
01:05:50,989 --> 01:05:53,103
He's not here.

684
01:05:53,109 --> 01:05:55,823
You need to leave.

685
01:05:55,829 --> 01:05:59,223
So, it's true. He's gone to Venice.

686
01:05:59,229 --> 01:06:01,023
Well, don't tell me you believed him

687
01:06:01,029 --> 01:06:03,663
when he said he was going there
to work. How dare you!

688
01:06:03,669 --> 01:06:07,743
I know him, Madame, better than you.

689
01:06:07,749 --> 01:06:10,063
No-one works in Venice.

690
01:06:10,069 --> 01:06:12,383
Milan, maybe.

691
01:06:12,389 --> 01:06:16,743
But Venice is all dark canals
and courtesans

692
01:06:16,749 --> 01:06:20,343
and pretty little boys like moths,
flying to the brightest flame.

693
01:06:20,349 --> 01:06:22,469
What's happening?
Why is the front door open?

694
01:06:24,669 --> 01:06:25,989
Get out.

695
01:06:29,469 --> 01:06:31,429
Get out!

696
01:06:33,389 --> 01:06:36,229
How many times have
I told you to keep away?

697
01:06:37,909 --> 01:06:39,423
Clean that up.

698
01:06:39,429 --> 01:06:42,903
Your brother would fuck a dog
if the price was right.

699
01:06:42,909 --> 01:06:44,983
I said clean it up.

700
01:06:44,989 --> 01:06:49,063
They say he gives it to you, too -
that he's the only man that will.

701
01:06:49,069 --> 01:06:50,383
What a tired old insult.

702
01:06:50,389 --> 01:06:52,143
DOG BARKS

703
01:06:52,149 --> 01:06:55,023
How brave are you really, Jack?

704
01:06:55,029 --> 01:06:56,869
Do you dare draw my blood?

705
01:06:59,189 --> 01:07:01,263
Is that what you really want?

706
01:07:01,269 --> 01:07:04,743
Bitch. He said I couldn't
work for him any more.

707
01:07:04,749 --> 01:07:06,543
And whose idea was that?

708
01:07:06,549 --> 01:07:09,103
Oh, so that's what this is about?

709
01:07:09,109 --> 01:07:11,223
You child!

710
01:07:11,229 --> 01:07:13,983
Just tell me what it'll cost to
get you to go away.

711
01:07:13,989 --> 01:07:15,343
I don't want your money.

712
01:07:15,349 --> 01:07:17,743
I'm here to show you what happens
when you meddle.

713
01:07:17,749 --> 01:07:18,949
Otto, he has a knife.

714
01:07:22,069 --> 01:07:23,823
Go.

715
01:07:23,829 --> 01:07:25,349
Before I kill you.

716
01:07:26,829 --> 01:07:30,423
He dresses you up as a lord,
but the truth is you're nothing

717
01:07:30,429 --> 01:07:32,183
but a savage.

718
01:07:32,189 --> 01:07:34,223
Do you know what he says about you?

719
01:07:34,229 --> 01:07:37,583
He's going to get rid of you, savage.

720
01:07:37,589 --> 01:07:40,383
Sell you to the highest bidder.

721
01:07:40,389 --> 01:07:44,623
You're nothing to him, boy.

722
01:07:44,629 --> 01:07:46,263
Now go.

723
01:07:46,269 --> 01:07:47,629
Agh!

724
01:07:49,309 --> 01:07:51,229
THEY GASP

725
01:07:59,869 --> 01:08:01,669
JACK SCREAMS

726
01:08:23,869 --> 01:08:25,269
God speed.

727
01:08:50,669 --> 01:08:52,549
What if Jack reports what I did?

728
01:08:53,989 --> 01:08:56,823
You heard what he said -
attempted murder,

729
01:08:56,829 --> 01:08:58,863
with a knife and a wound to prove it.

730
01:08:58,869 --> 01:09:00,269
The Militia would arrest me.

731
01:09:01,829 --> 01:09:03,543
When they ask Jack why he was here?

732
01:09:03,549 --> 01:09:06,669
He'd be signing his own death
warrant if he told them.

733
01:09:08,509 --> 01:09:10,789
English, a sodomite...

734
01:09:11,909 --> 01:09:14,063
..a former actor in the playhouses?

735
01:09:14,069 --> 01:09:16,503
I can't think of three things
the Burgomasters hate more.

736
01:09:16,509 --> 01:09:19,383
He has no money, and he needs it.

737
01:09:19,389 --> 01:09:21,509
A man may do anything
when he is desperate.

738
01:09:28,589 --> 01:09:31,983
The Seigneur saved me,
he taught me everything.

739
01:09:31,989 --> 01:09:35,463
And look how I've repaid him.

740
01:09:35,469 --> 01:09:37,229
There was never any debt to pay.

741
01:09:38,269 --> 01:09:41,143
Johannes bought you for his
own amusement.

742
01:09:41,149 --> 01:09:42,509
He employed me, Madame.

743
01:09:45,189 --> 01:09:48,149
You haven't killed anyone.
The boy's alive.

744
01:09:49,469 --> 01:09:52,103
Johannes will be more
worried about his dog than you.

745
01:09:52,109 --> 01:09:54,469
I've endangered you.

746
01:09:56,029 --> 01:09:57,709
I've endangered all of you.

747
01:10:22,149 --> 01:10:23,829
Are you reading my mind now?

748
01:10:53,069 --> 01:10:55,743
"Every woman is the architect
of her own fortune."

749
01:10:55,749 --> 01:10:58,543
"I fight to emerge."

750
01:10:58,549 --> 01:11:01,223
"Things can change."

751
01:11:01,229 --> 01:11:04,309
"The turnip cannot thrive
in the tulip's patch of soil."

752
01:11:08,549 --> 01:11:10,743
Enough of this. Who are you?

753
01:11:10,749 --> 01:11:12,023
What do you want from me?

754
01:11:12,029 --> 01:11:13,263
Are you a spy?

755
01:11:13,269 --> 01:11:15,309
What is your business with
Agnes Meermans?

756
01:11:24,509 --> 01:11:27,223
I know you're in there.

757
01:11:27,229 --> 01:11:29,703
You have to come out eventually.

758
01:11:29,709 --> 01:11:31,263
I can wait.

759
01:11:31,269 --> 01:11:34,663
There's no need to bellow.
They can hear you in Antwerp.

760
01:11:34,669 --> 01:11:36,303
I need to find the miniaturist.

761
01:11:36,309 --> 01:11:39,629
The what? No-one's been in that
building for over a week.

762
01:11:40,709 --> 01:11:42,149
But only yesterday she...

763
01:11:45,789 --> 01:11:49,509
What's your name?
I might have something for you.

764
01:11:50,509 --> 01:11:51,829
Petronella Brandt.

765
01:11:58,509 --> 01:11:59,869
Left on that doorstep.

766
01:12:06,869 --> 01:12:08,309
Cornelia.

767
01:12:22,789 --> 01:12:25,389
"Don't let sweet weapons stray."

768
01:12:32,549 --> 01:12:34,183
Madame! The Seigneur has returned.

769
01:12:34,189 --> 01:12:36,069
He's already asking where Rzecki is.

770
01:12:37,549 --> 01:12:38,983
You haven't told him?

771
01:12:38,989 --> 01:12:40,183
Rzecki!

772
01:12:40,189 --> 01:12:44,503
I couldn't do it.
It has to be you. Please.

773
01:12:44,509 --> 01:12:45,829
Rzecki!

774
01:12:48,669 --> 01:12:49,943
Johannes.

775
01:12:49,949 --> 01:12:52,109
You're home safe.

776
01:12:54,589 --> 01:12:56,589
Was Venice enjoyable?

777
01:12:58,829 --> 01:13:00,183
Venice was Venice.

778
01:13:00,189 --> 01:13:03,349
The Venetians never shut up,
and too much dancing for my knees.

779
01:13:12,309 --> 01:13:13,589
It's good to see you.

780
01:13:15,909 --> 01:13:17,383
Rzecki!

781
01:13:17,389 --> 01:13:20,229
Why is there no fire in this room?
The house is freezing. Otto!

782
01:13:22,509 --> 01:13:23,869
Morning, Otto.

783
01:13:27,629 --> 01:13:30,863
Something wrong?

784
01:13:30,869 --> 01:13:33,343
How many loaves did you
sell in Venice, brother?

785
01:13:33,349 --> 01:13:34,383
It was slow.

786
01:13:34,389 --> 01:13:37,183
I told you I should have waited
until the New Year.

787
01:13:37,189 --> 01:13:40,383
Then perhaps it would be better to
build such a gigantic fire

788
01:13:40,389 --> 01:13:42,143
once the sugar is actually sold.

789
01:13:42,149 --> 01:13:43,863
Don't provoke me, Marin.

790
01:13:43,869 --> 01:13:45,143
It was you who forced me

791
01:13:45,149 --> 01:13:47,383
to go out on a ship to Italy
in the dead of winter.

792
01:13:47,389 --> 01:13:49,143
You are the provocateur, not me.

793
01:13:49,149 --> 01:13:51,423
And stop talking about this
household as if it's yours.

794
01:13:51,429 --> 01:13:52,949
It belongs to Petronella now.

795
01:14:00,829 --> 01:14:02,109
Then she can have it.

796
01:14:03,709 --> 01:14:08,183
I have wasted enough of my life

797
01:14:08,189 --> 01:14:10,309
keeping yours smooth.

798
01:14:11,829 --> 01:14:16,549
We are all nothing but prisoners
to your desire, all of us.

799
01:14:18,829 --> 01:14:20,949
Otto, do you feel like a prisoner?

800
01:14:23,349 --> 01:14:26,383
- No, Seigneur.
- What do you expect him to say?!

801
01:14:26,389 --> 01:14:30,183
Look around you, Marin! Amsterdam
is closing down like a vice.

802
01:14:30,189 --> 01:14:32,543
This house is the only place
any of us are free.

803
01:14:32,549 --> 01:14:35,183
You. You are free.

804
01:14:35,189 --> 01:14:37,903
You think because you have some
maps on your wall, some books

805
01:14:37,909 --> 01:14:40,543
and a few animal skulls you know
my business better than I do?

806
01:14:40,549 --> 01:14:41,583
Stop! Stop!

807
01:14:41,589 --> 01:14:43,463
All you had to do was marry.
The one thing.

808
01:14:43,469 --> 01:14:45,226
- Marry rich, marry well.
- Both of you!

809
01:14:45,321 --> 01:14:46,302
But no, you couldn't do that.

810
01:14:46,309 --> 01:14:47,343
God knows we tried,

811
01:14:47,349 --> 01:14:49,749
- but all the guilders in Amsterdam...
- Rzecki is dead!

812
01:14:54,309 --> 01:14:55,549
What?

813
01:14:57,829 --> 01:15:02,189
Rzecki. She's dead, Johannes.

814
01:15:04,509 --> 01:15:05,943
Is this true?

815
01:15:05,949 --> 01:15:09,269
Oh, yes. And all your own fault.

816
01:15:11,749 --> 01:15:15,229
Your Englishman came knocking
yesterday. Your brothel moth.

817
01:15:16,909 --> 01:15:22,263
He put a dagger through her head
right here in your own hallway.

818
01:15:22,269 --> 01:15:27,663
I warned you about him. Over and over.

819
01:15:27,669 --> 01:15:29,149
If it hadn't been for Otto...

820
01:15:32,349 --> 01:15:35,429
- What did you do to him?
- I didn't mean to.

821
01:15:37,389 --> 01:15:39,343
What did you do?

822
01:15:39,349 --> 01:15:41,583
He showed mercy.

823
01:15:41,589 --> 01:15:44,589
Your pretty little English whelp
got up and walked away.

824
01:15:58,029 --> 01:16:00,543
"Dear Seigneur Windelbreke,
I am writing to

825
01:16:00,549 --> 01:16:02,983
"enquire about an apprentice
you once had.

826
01:16:02,989 --> 01:16:06,103
"She is female, with a tall,
fair-haired appearance,

827
01:16:06,109 --> 01:16:08,349
"and stares at me as if
she would look into my soul.

828
01:16:11,829 --> 01:16:13,903
"She has crept into my life, Seigneur,

829
01:16:13,909 --> 01:16:16,943
"and the miniatures she sends
are becoming more unnerving.

830
01:16:16,949 --> 01:16:18,949
"How did she come to you
and why did she leave?"

831
01:16:23,469 --> 01:16:25,223
Did you find him?

832
01:16:25,229 --> 01:16:26,863
Who?

833
01:16:26,869 --> 01:16:30,223
Please, Johannes. You swore.

834
01:16:30,229 --> 01:16:32,943
No more lies, remember?

835
01:16:32,949 --> 01:16:35,789
You went to find Jack, didn't you?

836
01:16:37,429 --> 01:16:39,023
It's hard to tell the truth

837
01:16:39,029 --> 01:16:42,223
when your whole life has been
built on lies and silence.

838
01:16:42,229 --> 01:16:45,069
Nobody has ever been much
interested in hearing it, until now.

839
01:16:51,149 --> 01:16:54,263
This is not the marriage you
imagined for yourself, is it?

840
01:16:54,269 --> 01:16:56,303
I was foolish to imagine anything.

841
01:16:56,309 --> 01:17:01,623
Without imagination, what else
is there? And you are no fool.

842
01:17:01,629 --> 01:17:04,309
How much of the sugar did you
manage to sell in Venice?

843
01:17:07,069 --> 01:17:09,383
What is happening, Johannes?

844
01:17:09,389 --> 01:17:11,663
Why will you not sell their sugar?

845
01:17:11,669 --> 01:17:14,463
Look at me. The truth.

846
01:17:14,469 --> 01:17:15,909
The truth?

847
01:17:17,069 --> 01:17:19,703
Because Frans hates me
and would like to destroy me.

848
01:17:19,709 --> 01:17:20,943
And Agnes hates Marin.

849
01:17:20,949 --> 01:17:23,303
While they had no inheritance,
they had no power.

850
01:17:23,309 --> 01:17:25,143
But once they have the money
from the sugar,

851
01:17:25,149 --> 01:17:27,423
there will be nothing
in Amsterdam that will stop them.

852
01:17:27,429 --> 01:17:29,263
Then why agree to sell
it in the first place?

853
01:17:29,269 --> 01:17:31,109
Because if I didn't,
somebody else would.

854
01:17:32,829 --> 01:17:35,543
You can't hold them at bay for ever.

855
01:17:35,549 --> 01:17:36,909
I know.

856
01:17:43,509 --> 01:17:44,669
The truth.

857
01:17:46,029 --> 01:17:47,669
Now you have it.

858
01:18:04,149 --> 01:18:06,629
You said something earlier that
wasn't true.

859
01:18:08,749 --> 01:18:10,029
What was that?

860
01:18:12,469 --> 01:18:14,069
That our marriage was a lie.

861
01:18:16,749 --> 01:18:18,029
Isn't it?

862
01:18:19,909 --> 01:18:21,789
Not a lie.

863
01:18:23,829 --> 01:18:25,189
Just different.

864
01:18:33,909 --> 01:18:35,703
Tell me, Johannes.

865
01:18:35,709 --> 01:18:37,943
How does this end?

866
01:18:37,949 --> 01:18:39,789
I'll tell you how it ends.

867
01:18:41,709 --> 01:18:43,743
Come January, I'll be gone again.

868
01:18:43,749 --> 01:18:49,069
And this time I'll make their profit
for them and all will be well.

869
01:18:51,069 --> 01:18:54,389
My stock always sells
when I want it to. I promise.

870
01:18:56,189 --> 01:18:57,709
What about you?

871
01:18:59,909 --> 01:19:01,789
I'll take the consequences.

872
01:19:03,789 --> 01:19:05,349
There has to be another way.

873
01:19:12,749 --> 01:19:14,109
Here...

874
01:19:15,709 --> 01:19:18,503
..I've something to show you.

875
01:19:18,509 --> 01:19:20,189
Rzecki.

876
01:19:25,829 --> 01:19:27,829
I've never seen anything like it.

877
01:19:29,389 --> 01:19:32,183
Who on earth could have
made such a thing?

878
01:19:32,189 --> 01:19:35,669
I've been asking myself that
question for weeks.

879
01:19:50,589 --> 01:19:52,343
DOOR OPENS AND SLAMS

880
01:19:52,349 --> 01:19:54,103
Wake up, Madame, please!

881
01:19:54,109 --> 01:19:56,783
What is it? Cornelia, what's wrong?

882
01:19:56,789 --> 01:19:59,183
Is it Johannes?

883
01:19:59,189 --> 01:20:01,143
No, Madame. It's Otto.

884
01:20:01,149 --> 01:20:02,429
He's gone.

885
01:20:04,469 --> 01:20:06,383
Why did he have to run like that?

886
01:20:06,389 --> 01:20:08,303
I'll check the docks first.

887
01:20:08,309 --> 01:20:10,629
And then the prisons,
in case he was arrested.

888
01:20:12,989 --> 01:20:14,989
Cornelia!

889
01:20:19,629 --> 01:20:20,863
Cornelia!

890
01:20:20,869 --> 01:20:22,869
I can't light the kindling.

891
01:20:26,029 --> 01:20:27,783
I told him nothing would happen.

892
01:20:27,789 --> 01:20:29,143
Why didn't he listen to me?

893
01:20:29,149 --> 01:20:34,583
It's better that he's gone.
By leaving here, he protected us.

894
01:20:34,589 --> 01:20:36,783
Imagine what would happen to
a man like Otto

895
01:20:36,789 --> 01:20:39,543
if the Burgomasters got hold of him.

896
01:20:39,549 --> 01:20:43,703
You knew he was going to leave,
didn't you?

897
01:20:43,709 --> 01:20:45,509
Let's just say he saw sense.

898
01:20:50,229 --> 01:20:52,109
You sent him away, Madame?

899
01:20:53,109 --> 01:20:55,263
I suggested it.

900
01:20:55,269 --> 01:20:58,909
Yes, and we all know
how your suggestions work.

901
01:21:00,149 --> 01:21:01,909
BANGING ON DOOR

902
01:21:03,229 --> 01:21:06,029
What if it's the Militia, come for Otto?

903
01:21:07,029 --> 01:21:10,229
Well, they won't find him, will they?

904
01:21:13,149 --> 01:21:14,749
BANGING ON DOOR

905
01:21:23,709 --> 01:21:27,143
- Frans.
- Where is Johannes? Johannes!

906
01:21:27,149 --> 01:21:29,503
He'll be at the bourse.

907
01:21:29,509 --> 01:21:32,783
No, I've been to the bourse, and
the Company, and several taverns.

908
01:21:32,789 --> 01:21:34,223
I am not my brother's keeper.

909
01:21:34,229 --> 01:21:35,709
More's the pity for all of us.

910
01:21:36,749 --> 01:21:39,663
Last night I went to the warehouse
to see for myself how much

911
01:21:39,669 --> 01:21:40,709
sugar had been sold.

912
01:21:41,989 --> 01:21:44,383
Not a grain has been shifted.

913
01:21:44,389 --> 01:21:47,469
Not a single blasted
grain of all that sugar.

914
01:21:49,469 --> 01:21:50,629
But it's worse than that.

915
01:21:52,469 --> 01:21:56,743
Our fortune, our entire fortune,

916
01:21:56,749 --> 01:21:59,783
is mouldering in the dark.

917
01:21:59,789 --> 01:22:02,863
I touched it. Some of it was paste.

918
01:22:02,869 --> 01:22:05,423
No, Frans. That's impossible.

919
01:22:05,429 --> 01:22:07,383
Johannes would never permit
that to happen.

920
01:22:07,389 --> 01:22:09,583
I saw it with my own eyes.

921
01:22:09,589 --> 01:22:12,543
God knows, that would be reason
enough to ruin Johannes Brandt.

922
01:22:12,549 --> 01:22:15,669
But there was worse to come. Far worse.

923
01:22:19,469 --> 01:22:21,783
Do you know what we saw,

924
01:22:21,789 --> 01:22:23,429
pressed up against the walls?

925
01:22:27,229 --> 01:22:30,383
- We saw his devilry.
- What are you talking about?

926
01:22:30,389 --> 01:22:33,023
Oh, come on, Marin.
You've always known it.

927
01:22:33,029 --> 01:22:36,343
You must have. But you...
Did you know it?

928
01:22:36,349 --> 01:22:39,309
How he spends his time
up against the warehouse walls?

929
01:22:40,589 --> 01:22:44,823
Such a thing cannot be unseen.
That's right.

930
01:22:44,829 --> 01:22:49,023
Now you know, and soon the world
will have to know,

931
01:22:49,029 --> 01:22:53,829
how your husband takes his vile
pleasures - with a boy.

932
01:22:55,269 --> 01:22:57,709
And what's more...

933
01:22:58,829 --> 01:23:03,383
What's more,
the boy says he attacked him.

934
01:23:03,389 --> 01:23:09,263
No, you've made a mistake,
that's not possible.

935
01:23:09,269 --> 01:23:10,509
Frans.

936
01:23:13,029 --> 01:23:16,669
Frans, please... you're his friend.

937
01:23:18,429 --> 01:23:20,469
Do not seek his punishment.

938
01:23:22,189 --> 01:23:24,063
You know how it will end.

939
01:23:24,069 --> 01:23:25,943
That friendship died years ago.

940
01:23:25,949 --> 01:23:28,629
Our sugar is as abandoned as his soul.

941
01:23:29,709 --> 01:23:32,143
Johannes Brandt is a worm
in the fruit of the city.

942
01:23:32,149 --> 01:23:34,103
And I must do my duty as a citizen.

943
01:23:34,109 --> 01:23:37,463
Frans, you will ruin us.

944
01:23:37,469 --> 01:23:39,823
Turn away from this.

945
01:23:39,829 --> 01:23:43,983
Surely, we can...
We can come to some arrangement.

946
01:23:43,989 --> 01:23:47,629
We will sell your sugar
and let that be an end. No.

947
01:23:49,669 --> 01:23:51,069
I'm a different man now.

948
01:24:01,029 --> 01:24:03,983
DOOR SLAMS

949
01:24:03,989 --> 01:24:05,229
I don't believe...

950
01:24:07,509 --> 01:24:08,829
It can't be true!

951
01:24:11,469 --> 01:24:14,463
Surely, he can't have been such a fool!

952
01:24:14,469 --> 01:24:15,743
Madame, calm, please

953
01:24:15,749 --> 01:24:17,143
Did you not hear him?

954
01:24:17,149 --> 01:24:19,383
He is going straight to
the Burgomasters.

955
01:24:19,389 --> 01:24:20,903
Then his arrogance is a gift.

956
01:24:20,909 --> 01:24:23,823
Johannes still has a few
hours to escape.

957
01:24:23,829 --> 01:24:25,583
First Otto, now the Seigneur?

958
01:24:25,589 --> 01:24:28,783
But we can't live here,
just the three of us.

959
01:24:28,789 --> 01:24:31,223
I don't know how, but we need to
find a way to sell the sugar

960
01:24:31,229 --> 01:24:33,703
and buy his silence.
It can't all be rotten.

961
01:24:33,709 --> 01:24:35,869
Nothing will keep his silence.

962
01:24:37,029 --> 01:24:39,183
And what do you know of selling sugar?

963
01:24:39,189 --> 01:24:41,743
I am searching for the light, Marin.

964
01:24:41,749 --> 01:24:44,349
There must be some in all this darkness.

965
01:25:01,149 --> 01:25:03,589
DOOR CLOSES

966
01:25:08,469 --> 01:25:11,429
You have to go. You have to leave now.

967
01:25:14,029 --> 01:25:16,269
Nella, what's wrong, what's happening?

968
01:25:17,909 --> 01:25:19,909
Frans and Agnes saw you.

969
01:25:22,909 --> 01:25:25,309
They saw you, Johannes.

970
01:25:26,989 --> 01:25:28,589
At the warehouse, with a young man.

971
01:25:29,589 --> 01:25:30,829
Was it Jack?

972
01:25:32,509 --> 01:25:35,983
How could you,
after the way he betrayed you?

973
01:25:35,989 --> 01:25:38,423
It is not Jack Philips who has
betrayed me, Nella.

974
01:25:38,429 --> 01:25:39,469
It is this city.

975
01:25:41,269 --> 01:25:45,343
Neighbours watching neighbours,
twisting ropes to bind us all.

976
01:25:45,349 --> 01:25:48,829
Well, they cannot bind you
if you are not here.

977
01:25:55,549 --> 01:25:57,423
Where will you go?

978
01:25:57,429 --> 01:26:00,623
I have friends in many countries.

979
01:26:00,629 --> 01:26:02,143
What does it open?

980
01:26:02,149 --> 01:26:05,903
The warehouse. Here is the list
that I've been working on.

981
01:26:05,909 --> 01:26:08,303
People who may be
interested in the sugar.

982
01:26:08,309 --> 01:26:09,383
Give it to Marin.

983
01:26:09,389 --> 01:26:11,823
She's always wanted to
run my business and now she can.

984
01:26:11,829 --> 01:26:14,389
But she'll find it's
not as simple as she thinks.

985
01:26:17,269 --> 01:26:19,223
Will you ever come back?

986
01:26:19,229 --> 01:26:22,423
Amsterdam is a city like no other,
but I have never called it home.

987
01:26:22,429 --> 01:26:25,183
- Well, where is home?
- Wherever comfort is.

988
01:26:25,189 --> 01:26:27,429
But for a man like me,
it can be hard to find.

989
01:26:28,749 --> 01:26:30,743
I'll miss you.

990
01:26:30,749 --> 01:26:33,909
I'll miss you, too.
More than I ever expected.

991
01:26:35,109 --> 01:26:36,989
Where is Marin? Marin!

992
01:26:39,469 --> 01:26:43,309
She says she is too ill to come down.

993
01:26:45,789 --> 01:26:47,589
Johannes!

994
01:26:49,309 --> 01:26:50,709
Take me with you.

995
01:26:52,389 --> 01:26:53,669
You're serious?

996
01:26:54,869 --> 01:27:00,189
A man travelling with his wife
doesn't attract a second glance.

997
01:27:03,949 --> 01:27:06,663
They need you here, Nella.

998
01:27:06,669 --> 01:27:08,463
Otto, Cornelia.

999
01:27:08,469 --> 01:27:13,509
Even Marin,
much more than you know. Here.

1000
01:27:24,389 --> 01:27:26,229
Promise me you'll come back.

1001
01:27:27,989 --> 01:27:29,949
No lies, remember?

1002
01:27:31,269 --> 01:27:33,149
I cannot change what I am...

1003
01:27:34,389 --> 01:27:35,749
One day, perhaps.

1004
01:27:47,909 --> 01:27:49,103
What happened?

1005
01:27:49,109 --> 01:27:51,463
The Militia came for her last night.

1006
01:27:51,469 --> 01:27:53,869
- You said she'd gone.
- Then why are you here?

1007
01:27:55,869 --> 01:27:58,383
- I thought she might have returned.
- So did they.

1008
01:27:58,389 --> 01:28:02,229
They left disappointed,
but they cleared the place out.

1009
01:28:07,109 --> 01:28:09,423
Marin, would you happen to have...

1010
01:28:09,429 --> 01:28:11,703
SOBBING

1011
01:28:11,709 --> 01:28:14,513
- I'm coming in.
- No, no, no please don't.

1012
01:28:15,269 --> 01:28:17,909
What, by all the angels...?

1013
01:28:18,989 --> 01:28:20,309
Go away.

1014
01:28:23,549 --> 01:28:25,263
What is that in your hand?

1015
01:28:25,269 --> 01:28:27,869
I said go away. What is it? Marin!

1016
01:28:29,509 --> 01:28:31,423
No! No!

1017
01:28:31,429 --> 01:28:33,143
You have no right.

1018
01:28:33,149 --> 01:28:34,343
You understand nothing!

1019
01:28:34,349 --> 01:28:36,703
I understand everything.
Johannes will be safe.

1020
01:28:36,709 --> 01:28:39,543
And even if they catch him,
I have a list of names.

1021
01:28:39,549 --> 01:28:42,029
We will sell the sugar
and it will all be fine.

1022
01:28:43,789 --> 01:28:47,863
Oh, you stupid, stupid girl.

1023
01:28:47,869 --> 01:28:49,949
Don't you see?

1024
01:28:52,149 --> 01:28:54,503
It's not about him.

1025
01:28:54,509 --> 01:28:55,989
What don't I see?

1026
01:29:02,309 --> 01:29:04,503
Now do you see?

1027
01:29:04,509 --> 01:29:06,189
My God, Marin.

1028
01:29:07,309 --> 01:29:08,469
What have you done?
