We're to gather
shortly on the beach

for champagne and games.

You seem to have done
little else since London

than drink champagne with
Montrose

and his friends.

I've been
celebrating my victory.

Georgiana...

Have you given yourself time

to absorb
the revelations of the trial?

I've no desire
to dwell on the trial.

I wondered if it might
have made you even more

determined to find your mother.

I have accepted
that the search is hopeless.

From now on,
I shall look only to the future.

But what of you?

Your wedding
is only two weeks away.

Do I sense you're putting
off your return to Willingden?

I'd like to be certain you've
recovered from your ordeal.

As you see,
I've entirely recovered.

And I couldn't leave
before your party tomorrow.

It is kind of Tom
and Mary to host it,

but I fear it might be
a rather staid occasion.

Arthur!

Charlotte and I

are to meet Harry
and his friends on the beach.

Say you'll come.

Oh, I'm, uh...

I'm not sure.

What has possessed the pair
of you?

Ever since the shooting party,

you've both been
out of sorts.

I have no idea
what you mean.

Well.

Whatever is ailing you both,
I believe the best way

to deal with
your problems is to forget them.

Preferably with champagne.

♪ ♪

Can I persuade you to saddle up
and join me?

God, no, thank you.

It's far too early in
the day for such exertions.

Had you not planned to return
to London after

the shooting party,
yet five days have passed

and here you are.

I don't wish
to outstay my welcome, brother,

but I am not
ready to leave just yet.

I am enjoying getting
to know Leo and Augusta.

And Lady de Clemente?

This might be the first

friendship I've ever had with
a woman.

And since neither of us
have the least bit

of romantic interest in each
other,

it's refreshingly
uncomplicated.

Perhaps you are
growing up.

I won't go that far.

Did I mention
Miss Lambe is hosting

a party to celebrate
her success in court?

We're both invited.

Do we know
who else will be in attendance?

I assume Miss Heywood
will be there,

if that's what you're asking.

♪ ♪

I know your last

conversation with her didn't go
the way you hoped.

I must look to the future,
Samuel.

To which end,
I've invited Lady Lydia

and her mother to tea.

And what of Miss Heywood?

Do you intend to pretend
she just doesn't exist?

Suppress your feelings?

I believe that's
the motto on our family crest.

♪ ♪

My dear Augusta,

with every word you write,
you pierce my soul.

And with every passing day,
the agony of separation

grows yet sharper.

I cannot let your uncle
destroy your happiness.

If there is a way for us
to be together,

I will find it.

♪ ♪

And where have you been?

I like to spend time
in quiet contemplation

before I meet Mr. Hankins.

His efforts
are evidently failing

if that debacle at
the shoot is any measure.

Setting your sights
on Miss Markham!

Or should I say
her 5,000 a year?

I never should have asked
Mr. Colbourne

if I could call on her.

The approach was misjudged.

But I can say

with hand on heart that
I've not been near her since.

For my lady.

Thistles?

Who would send me...

...thistles?

I could hazard a guess.

♪ ♪

What's that?

Just a flower.

We don't grow
orchids in our greenhouse.

But true to form, he's
resorted to evasion and deceit.

You left him no choice.

Tell me you have not
been alone with him.

Why is that any of your concern?

I am not your daughter.

You will have no
further contact with that man.

From now on, you are never

without a chaperone!

♪ ♪

You've already made your
concerns abundantly clear, Mary.

This is an alternative, Tom,
a proposal of my own.

A way to improve the Old Town,

If you could just
spare a moment to read it.

No, I can't, I'm afraid, I'm
late for an important meeting.

Why will you not listen to me?

You're a wonderful wife,
Mary, and a devoted mother.

But you are not a businessman.

There are things
you do not understand.

So why don't you leave
the speculating to me,

You seem to be in unusually
good spirits of late, Beatrice.

I believe I know the cause!

Do you, brother?

Why, grace of God,
of course, sister.

Would you not say?
Yes.

alone.

I detect an ever-sharper sense
of purpose

in you, Sir Edward.

Is it not said that God
helps those who help themselves,

Mr. Hankins?

Indeed so.

A little more?

♪ ♪

They're his friends from Bath,
a rather fashionable crowd.

They seem highly
taken with Georgiana.

Or with her fortune.

How about a little sport?

Shall we see

who can eat the largest number

in less than a minute?

Perhaps you haven't heard,

but Georgiana's been leading
a sugar boycott.

Oh.

I will put two pounds

Uh...

I think I'll decline,
thank you.

♪ ♪

They're not afraid to
draw attention to themselves.

It is only a bit of fun,
Charlotte.

You need more champagne.

Arthur.

I must ask.

Have you been avoiding me
since the shooting party?

I thought you were
avoiding me.

You seemed quite
preoccupied with your friends.

No.

They're just a distraction.

I would far sooner
have your company than theirs.

There you are, Harry!

We've barely seen
you these past few days.

Not since the Bath set
arrived.

Or could it be
that you've been spending

all your time in
Miss Lambe's company?

You two are
becoming quite inseparable.

Miss Heywood,
I trust you are well?

Uh, very well,
thank you, Lady Lydia.

We are much looking forward
to your party, Miss Lambe.

Can I assume the, uh, brothers
Colbourne will be there?

I've invited them both.

Oh!

I must thank you for
your advice, Miss Heywood.

Once I kept the conversation
to dogs and horses,

I found Mr. Colbourne

to be pleasing company
indeed.

I'm glad.

And the feeling was
plainly mutual, since we've

received an invitation
to Heyrick Park tomorrow.

Apparently, no one
has caught his eye

since the death
of his wife.

Not until now, that is.

Mother.
You cannot
blame me for being excited.

There's every
chance I may soon see

both my children settled!

♪ ♪

I fear the more draconian my
brother is,

the more appealing Sir Edward
will seem.

Hmm, well, forbidden fruit
is always the most tempting.

And when you are young,
it is only natural

that you would mutiny
against your parents.

I can't believe
you were ever wayward, my lady.

Oh, I was wildly
ungovernable.

I used to steal
my father's carriage

and drive it at
death-defying speed.

I've never known
a thrill like it.

I was quite incorrigible
myself.

Some may argue I still am.

I find excitement, these days,
in more tranquil activities,

like matchmaking.

Hmm, though I fear you may have
to admit defeat,

now my brother has declared his
intention to court Lady Lydia.

Oh, and Miss Heywood is due
to return home to her betrothed.

I question what reason
I have to stay in Sanditon now.

Perhaps it's time I looked
for diversion elsewhere.

I fear they are not
true friends.

They know
how to enjoy themselves.

Whereas you seem to have
forgotten.

It is Mr. Colbourne, isn't it?

You know
you can tell me anything.

After the shooting party,
he...

He found me out on a walk.

He told me
he was in love with me.

And to my eternal shame,
we, we kissed.

You need feel no shame.
I'm to be married,
Georgiana.

But if you share
his feelings...

I've made a commitment to Ralph,
to my family.

I cannot break it.

You were right.

I have been putting
off my return to Willingden.

How can I face Ralph?

How can I tell him?

Ralph!

Charlotte!

I read that Miss Lambe's
trial is happily concluded.

So, I've come to bring you home.

You will not vanquish me, sir!

The fair and so
very tasty Lady Blancmange

will soon be mine!

Not on your life,

for later, shall we?

Your father's been

quite lost with neither you
or Alison

there for the harvest.

But there's much
excitement about our wedding.

Your mother's started
decorating the church.

I'd meant to come home sooner,
but, yeah,

I was concerned
for Georgiana.

But now you're ready
to return.

There's a party tonight.

To celebrate her victory.

I'd like to be there.

For her.

One more night, Ralph.

Then we'll leave, I promise.

If that is what you want.

Even now, my lady,

there's a fever
sweeping through the Old Town.

There are children
who are dangerously sick.

Well, if the state of
their dwelling breeds illness,

then why would
they wish to remain there?

We have a duty
to help them,

not to force them
from their homes!

Mrs. Parker...

You have Mr. Pryce's ear...
Mrs. Parker!

As pleased as I am
that you have finally

found your voice,
I would rather you didn't

use it against me,

or my business affairs.

And I venture that Mr. Pryce,
and your husband,

would feel the same.

Ah, the very man.

Morning, my lady.

Mrs. Parker.

Good morning.

Someone sent me a bouquet
of thistles.

They put me in mind of you.

Elegant but prickly.

You old fool.

Old, me?

But we are of an age.

Oh, poppycock, I'm eight years
younger than you.

You didn't use to be.

Oh, be quiet.

♪ ♪

Ma'am?

♪ ♪

You sent for me,
Miss Lambe?

I assume you read
the newspapers.

Yes.

So, you will know

how they continue to gossip
and speculate about me.

They will move on to
someone else soon enough.

Although, and I say this
without judgment,

if you don't wish

to be gossiped about, you might
keep a rather lower profile.

You will tell them to
desist or face the consequences.

I'm afraid the law has little
sway when it comes to the press.

Here is today's post.

A letter from a man who claims
to be my third cousin.

One from a woman who is
supposedly my half-sister.

I thought defeating Lockhart
would prove a deterrent.

I am sorry, Miss Lambe.

But as an unmarried woman,

you find yourself in
a vulnerable position.

Don't forget, Lockhart came
dangerously close to winning.

I asked you here to help me,
not to give me cold comfort.

And I will help
in any way I can.

But I must be honest.

The only way
these claims will cease

is if you either give up
your fortune

or find a husband.

I was thinking on your
words from the shooting party.

You said that whilst most
men have a taste for pheasant,

You did.

It was the shock of recognition.

You put into words

something that I never dared
to admit,

not even to myself.

I like my life, Harry,

I would never wish

how would I, would we...

Oh, forgive me, this is such
strange and

unfamiliar ground.

There is a friend.

He owns a small cottage in
Wales,

on the River Wye.

It is quite beautiful there.

One can go weeks
without seeing another soul.

I wonder if you...

One grouse in particular.

Wait!

This fever is merciless.

Poor little Dora Filkins
is gravely ill.

I've asked Dr. Fuchs
to do what he can,

but there's no doubt their
living conditions

have played a part.

That's why this proposal

could not be more timely
or more vital.

Do you think so?

My only thought...

Go on, my dear.

Young Tess has
such a hunger to learn.

It made me think...

Might there also be merit
in building a school?

What a wonderful idea.

We could offer an education
to all the local children,

boys and girls.

We, Charlotte?

God willing, you'll be
busy teaching our own children.

Of course.

I've arranged to call

on Mr. Colbourne this afternoon
to discuss my plans.

I don't suppose...

Would you accompany me,
Charlotte?

You could tell him
about your school idea.

It would hardly be fair

to leave Ralph
on his own.

Ralph could come with us!

I'm sure Mr. Colbourne
wouldn't mind.

I would love
to see Heyrick Park.

And to make
a proper acquaintance

of your former employer.
Honestly, Mary,

your proposal speaks
for itself.

You have no need of our company.

Oh, I'd be glad of it all
the same.

For moral support.

Then it's decided.

We shall all pay a visit
to Mr. Colbourne this afternoon.

You do not know what you ask.

I know fine well.

I am asking you to rescue me.

Where would we go?

Anywhere!

It is not as if anyone here
will miss me.

Besides Leo.

In all conscience,
I cannot.

You,

you are the only
person I love in this world.

And, if it's not
a presumption,

the only person
that cares a damn about me?

It is not a presumption
at all.

Is it not remarkable to think
that we have found each other?

And yet, fate has dealt
us the cruelest of hands.

It is fate that has
brought us together.

But it is my uncle
that keeps us apart.

You must return to the house,

before he comes looking
for you.

When will I see you again?

Will you attend Miss Lambe's
party?

Yes,

but under his ever-watchful
eye.

Well, that doesn't
matter.

Even if we cannot
speak to each other,

it will be enough to
see your face one last time.

One last time?

How can I bear to be
near you,

knowing that we can never
be together?

I am resolved to leave
Sanditon.

So kind of you to show us
your stables, Mr. Colbourne.

Lydia has been quite
beside herself at the prospect.

Unusually for my mother,
that is not an overstatement.

So this is my good friend
Hannibal.

I'm afraid he isn't always
terribly polite to people

he doesn't know.

That's all right.

You have a fine gait, Hannibal!

But I think you pull
a little to the left,

don't you?

Very perceptive.

I find holding one rein

braced against the saddle,

then releasing it immediately
sometimes does the trick.

I shall try that.

My Lydia can tame
the wildest of beasts.

You keep a fine house here,
Mr. Colbourne.

Although, as a widow myself,
I imagine it

must get rather lonely.

Well, I'm hardly alone,
Your Grace.

I have Augusta, Leonora,
and, um,

well, as you've seen,
a stable full of horses.

As long as I had horses

and a pianoforte,

I believe I could
renounce human company

for months on end.

I'm inclined to agree.

You're clearly

A proposal that I fully support.

And Miss Heywood has
also suggested

founding a school
for the local children.

An admirable idea.

Of course, it is

so preoccupied with education,
Miss Heywood,

A little over two weeks.

Since our encounter

Ah...

And there are so many
pleasures in life

that need to be shared.

And so I thought
I would ask you...

I hope you're not
proposing another ride

in that death trap
of yours.

I was proposing marriage,
you foolish woman.

Marriage?

I would get down
on one knee,

but it would take
two footmen and a winch

to get me back up again.

So?

No!

Now, now, now, now,
take your time, think about it.

No need!

I'm Lady Denham.

I wish to keep that title.

And my fortune, to boot.

No amount of laughter
can compensate for that, can it?

Oh, good heavens!

No, let's go,
and have some tea.

We'd been exchanging letters.

We even managed to meet
a handful of times.

But now my uncle has me
barred from leaving the house.

I am kept under lock and key.

I struggle to believe
he would have done so

without good reason.

Why should he determine
who I can and cannot love?

Were my parents alive,

they would only
want to see me happy.

Could you tell me
who this gentleman is?

He is from a good family.

He has a poetic soul.

He is kinder
than anyone knows.

Yet my uncle still does not
consider him good enough.

I'm sure he's just trying
to secure your future.

I am content.

I feel as if my future
is alive with possibilities.

I have also been thinking
on my future.

I have something
to share with you.

Perhaps it is time
I make my announcement.

Colbourne has just
congratulated me

on your vision
for the Old Town.

I tried to speak to you.

Instead, you spoke
to him.

A woman can only be silenced
for so long before she roars.

If I might beg your
indulgence for a moment.

Earlier this evening,

the Duke of Buckinghamshire

did me the honor of asking
for my hand in marriage.

And I happily accepted.

So, this is now a party
to celebrate

our engagement.

♪ ♪

That might be the first
wise decision she's ever made.

Then you would agree,

that getting married
is an act of wisdom.

She gains a title.

I would lose one!

But think what you
would gain.

We could see out the years
in happy companionship.

Someone to laugh with.

Gripe with.

Dine with.

But you would rather remain
alone in that big house?

For the sake of a title?

My congratulations to you both.

- Arthur!
- Come, my dear,

they're clamoring
to congratulate you.

Fräulein Hankins.

On such a happy occasion,

would you join me
for the next dance?

I am afraid
I must decline, Doctor.

But thank you
for your kind offer.

♪ ♪

Earlier you said that if
this gentleman and I

are truly meant to be together,
then we will find a way.

Well, what if there is a way,
but

I find myself nervous
for what it might mean?

If you have a chance to
be with him, then seize it,

or you'll spend
the rest of your life

trying to forget
what could have been.

Thank you.

♪ ♪

Mr. Colbourne seems
perfectly amenable.

Yet in his presence
you seem...

Ill at ease.

Withdrawn.

It was the same
at tea today.

I, I don't know
what you mean.

You have publicly
betrayed me, Mary.

I'm not sure I like
the woman you've become.

How unfortunate.

I was growing
rather fond of her.

I haven't danced for years!

I suppose I've had
no one to dance with.

You're a wonderful dancer,
Louisa.

You always were.

It's inspiring, is it not,

to see them find happiness
so late in life?

It seems there is hope
for us all.

I noticed you and Augusta
in urgent conference.

I won't betray
her confidence.

She's blessed to have
the benefit of your counsel.

She will miss it.

♪ ♪

Ladies and gentlemen,

if you will join me
on the promenade,

it is time for fireworks!

I'll join you presently.

♪ ♪

Might we declare a truce?

♪ ♪

I know you have
only ever done

what you thought
was best for me, Uncle.

There are some things
we will never agree on, but

I am ready to
put all that behind me.

I'm glad.

I think I will find
Uncle Samuel.

♪ ♪

Are you sure?

Once we leave,
there is no turning back.

I have never been surer.

♪ ♪

Sir Edward?

Sir Edward!

I cannot leave without
begging you to reconsider.

How can you marry a man
you barely know,

let alone love?

This is not about love.

It is about securing
my fortune, my position.

I will be a duchess.

But what of your happiness?

What about yours?

Who are you to question me?

You are condemning yourself
to a loveless marriage

when you're in love with
Mr. Colbourne.

I am sorry to interrupt.

♪ ♪

I was afraid you might
miss the fireworks.

♪ ♪

Oh, thank you.

Does your preposterous
offer still stand?

Of course.

Well, against my
better judgment,

I accept.

♪ ♪

Don't despair, Harry.

I have found my own
secret ways to defy her.

You will, too.

♪ ♪

Are you yet persuaded
there might be reasons

to stay in Sanditon
besides Miss Heywood?

One or two, perhaps.

Mr. Colbourne.

Where is your brother?

Is there a problem?

I fear so.

♪ ♪

You know, just because
I am to be married, Arthur,

doesn't mean I won't
still have time for you.

Why did it have to be him?

It's late, Ralph.

We cannot leave now.

At first light, then.

All I want is to remove you
from this place.

Why?

Because it is
no good for you!

You are not yourself here.

Every time you visit, you return
in a state of abject misery.

It's not Sanditon.

Then what is it?

What are you afraid to tell me,
Charlotte?

Please tell me you know
where they've gone.

Who?

We believe Augusta has eloped
with Sir Edward Denham.

Edward Denham?

You're the only one she
will listen to, Miss Heywood.

Say you will
help me find her.

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

I will see Miss Heywood
safely returned.

You don't love Harry.

This has nothing
to do with love.

What about his happiness?

You do love me,
don't you, Edward?

If you've taught me
anything, Miss Heywood,

it's that a young woman has a
right to choose her own destiny.
