He will put effort directly.

Good.

attending.

Go.

Good.

Wow.

Never move online.

Won't take long to give him a decent burial, sir.

We'll be in Liverpool in 24 hours.

Or Barry on the show.

God rest yourselves.

What did it die of?

Don't go to fishing out of the ocean yesterday.

What ship were they from?

Oh, I dear.

It must have gone down fast. It was hardly any flots.

That sea out there has become an agrave yard.

That's a second ship this month.

You're not going to die.

Not good enough, O'Neden.

You left here promising to return with a cargo of Black Sea Grains.

You was forced to turn back. You know that.

And I know why.

You deliberately ignored an admiralty notice.

The consequence of which you come back with a ruined cargo.

There's the Musala Y.

One sixth of your potential cargo.

And a barely enough left to pay off your crew.

Still far, all the ships trade in.

I mean, there's profit there.

Yes, but not here in Liverpool.

There are two in Australia and the other three are straight between South America and the African coast.

They'll not be returning for months.

Oh, but when the dude will be...

It will be...

I'll look road here and now.

But there is another way.

I've held off on those two houses your company owns.

I've had them valued.

I know you have.

Together they're just about Fitch, the 1700.

Right then.

Miss Gaunt, my daughter Charlotte can move in with me.

I've already warned them of that, but...

You can't sell Robert's house.

I mean, I can't take my roof away from his head again.

Well, there's a perfectly good apartment above that store of his.

And it'd be no longer paying rent for the house, so you'd be doing him a favor.

Oh, doubt if you'll see it that way.

Whether he does or not, I'm putting them on the market.

No, delay it.

24 hours.

No.

I've had a note from her sister.

The Fraser line has got a contract that they can't meet.

Now, she's offered it to me.

Oh, sounds a profitable one.

It's, er...

I am plates to the Belfast chipyards.

I suggest you ask around before you take that contract, unedin.

Mm?

But the sailboards go up.

Move here. It's definite then.

I am afraid that's the long and the short of it, Miss Gaunt.

Oh, well, I'm glad it's settled at least Charlotte will see more of you.

So will I.

So, er, Charlotte won't mind.

No, not a bit.

Oh, good, good.

Ergh.

I'm sorry things are going so badly for you, James.

I wish there was something I could do to help.

Er, a housekeeper.

Now you mustn't go to a housekeeper.

I thought you were trying to save money.

People are going to talk.

They will.

A housekeeper will know.

I'm sure I'll gossip.

Wouldn't worry me.

Not you.

Unless, of course, there were some substance in it.

I will, er...

I must get myself to the exchange.

No one to check some freak prices with sister Elizabeth before I see her.

You say Charlotte's at a party, then?

Do you know I do believe that Christmas falls on Friday this year?

What?

Nothing.

You're not the only one who can change the subject.

Oh, no.

Well, er...

Right then, well, erm...

I'll see you later, Mr. Artie.

Hmm.

Hmm.

You're not going to see you that thing, are you?

Are they done wrong with the older Princey Captain on it?

I'm not going to see you enough to lay money on a sinking on an ex voyage.

I think on sinking ships, even drowning.

No friends of mine.

Quentances, then.

What?

Mr. Dunwoody is one of the regulars.

My sister's clerk.

He came over this morning to look us over.

He's a fine one to criticize the success he's made of his business.

You can be quite sure of your cargo arriving on time, Mr. Silks.

The Mercury.

Morning, An

Hidden.

Didn't know you'd returned.

Ah, got in early this morning.

Profitable trip, I trust.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

So am I.

All right, for these, erm, I am plates is

exceptionally hard, isn't it?

You're not thinking of taking on a cargo, are you Captain?

No, possibly.

Oh, you'd be one advised to decline that contract.

Here, down here.

The second person that's warned me of, Sam.

And I won't be the last of those, eh?

So what's peculiar about this particular car?

I mean, you don't know.

Oh, what, man?

Fire ships.

Fire ships executing a very contract have gone down over the last six months.

Lost with all hands.

You'll always be poor seamanship.

Unsee worthy ships.

So on just now, now you can see the rest of the tables right now.

The rest of the tables right now.

Unsequencing.

Ah, regular bathtub now.

A shower that rose on the other hand.

Is there a fire ship?

Some of the others were, too.

And now that at the bottom of the Irish sea, take my advice and eat it.

Decline the contract.

Sweet glass of Richmond Hill.

Sweet glass of Richmond Hill.

Eyed crowns resigned to call the mines.

Sweet glass of Richmond Hill.

Come on, let's have a shout-out.

No more.

Sam, you can't you think of anything but the sea.

No, it's the only life, isn't it?

Well, for a man, anyway.

Willie, I can't think why you left nautical school.

Anyway, I thought you liked the sea.

I do.

Well, brother, I liked ships.

I was very good at navigation, but when it came to seamanship and climbing the rig in heavy seas, well, I realized I'd never be a good sailor.

That's when my ma agreed to send me to my magical school.

I wish I'd gone to your nautical school.

No, I even have to...

To what?

Well, I have a collection of model ships.

I made some of them myself.

And if he ever finds out about it...

That's ridiculous.

Yes.

Nevertheless, I still have to keep them secret.

It'd be furious.

Sounds wasting my time.

Should be concentrating on my studies.

Well, show them to us.

Do you really want to see them?

Of course. Where do you keep them?

In the attic over the shop.

My parents never go up there, easy.

Shall we go and have a look?

All right, William?

All right, come on.

Will it take us long, Simon?

No, not long.

I think it's an excellent contract.

Eight carvers of iron plates for shipbuilding.

Live up all to Belfast.

Ten weeks, good work for the Charlotte Roads.

Ten weeks?

All a week each round trip and a little despair.

We'll do it faster than that, I think.

That's up to you, but are you interested?

Well, the town seemed reasonable.

I don't know what you want for today.

Ten percent of your profits.

Well, as I obtained the contract,

I think you ought to have a little for assigning it.

Well, then what don't you take it?

Everyone, a hoke.

So I've been told?

Look, I am rather short of time.

Will you take it or not?

Well, as it's family, just to help you out, eh?

Good. Shall we sign immediately?

Right.

Mm.

Well, as a matter of fact, it was done hoodie who required.

No, I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

Well, I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

I'm glad.

Yes, he seems to have inherited a little money.

Mm.

And he asked if there were any houses for sale

about the size and position of yours.

Hey, what?

It was only an inquiry.

Oh.

Well, I've got my assistant.

I'll see you done, Woody, on the way out.

You meant no harm, James.

Yes, I'll, uh, deal with this immediately.

Oh, uh, goodbye, sir.

Oh, don't worry.

Hmm.

I hear you've inherited a little money.

Well, uh, not exactly.

May one ask how much?

Come, Mr. O'Lady, so that is rather private.

Mm.

Make it on those gambling policies, did you?

I beg your pardon, sir.

I mean betting on sea men drowning.

I've never thought you'd have gone for that.

It's a filthy business.

It's only, uh, very small amounts.

So, and over a great number of years, it's a common practice.

Yes, well, not in my book, it isn't.

I'd rather give my house to the devil than exchange it from when he made that way.

What's more, any house that you may acquire?

Size.

Carrying a cargo of 2,000 tons and at a speed of 15 nuts,

you would gain the attention of the whole maritime world.

The most up to date equipment for stowage would be installed.

And all the...

Mrs. Fraser, you promised to listen to my proposals.

I can assure you, Mr. Macauley, I have heard every word you've said.

I've done a good deal of time and money having these plans prepared.

Not Fraser money, I trust.

Well, would it matter?

No, certainly it would.

The Fraser Yard built the customer specifications, not our own.

Or do you have a client for that?

Once she's built, we'd have ship owners lining up for her,

and we'd sell it to the highest bidder.

And if there are no bidders, Mr. Macauley, what then?

Well, the Fraser Yard could sell it to the Fraser Line.

That is not the way I do business.

So, I tell you, you changed your methods.

You can't expect clients to come knocking on your door every day of the week.

You've got to speculate to accumulate, Macauley.

I'll thank you not to address me in that fashion, sir.

And for your information, I intend to do as little speculating with your money as is possible.

Now, you listen to me.

My business is making money.

Anyway, I can.

I've never turned down a chance yet, and I don't intend to start now.

Will you please go?

All right.

But you'll come round to my way of thinking, even though you might take some persuading.

Oh, incidentally, I'm glad to see that you do take my advice sometimes.

I told you that Belfast contract was unprofitable.

Dunwoody says you're not going ahead with it.

No.

No, I've handed it over to my brother.

To James and Eton?

No, that's which.

Oh, why word? That really is which.

You didn't even have the decency or the common courtesy to come round and tell us in person.

No, he would have had to face us. That's why.

You do more for your semen than you do for your own kin.

Lou, if I'd had the time, I would have come round.

I didn't know how this was going to act so quickly.

But you knew that he was going to sell both the houses right enough.

You knew, he knew.

And nobody bothered to tell us.

I said, I'm sorry.

Sorry.

We'll not put a roof over our heads.

Well, I had no option.

I did everything I could.

It seems to me that you did precious little.

Well, look how many more times I forgot to tell you. I haven't got any money.

James, you have ships. You've got six ships. You could have sold one of those.

What? So one of my ships just to keep a roof over your head because you don't choose to live up of the shop.

I am not setting foot in that place and that's flat.

Well, then you'd better start looking for another one. Quickly.

Robert, you can tell that brother of yours I'll never speak to him again as long as I live.

I think it would be better if I followed her example.

What's the problem?

One thousand four hundred. That's a lot of money, Robert.

Nevertheless, that is what the agents are asking for my house. One thousand four hundred pounds.

I'll just take these papers over to the exchange, very well.

Oh, very well.

You really is so self-effacing, man. I quite forgot to do it a year.

Don't worry. He's no gossip.

Good.

Now, when can you let me have your draft?

I haven't said I'd lend you any money.

Elizabeth.

Look, I may soon need every penny I can lay my hands on.

I'm relying on you.

And who do I turn to if I need money? Not you. Oh, James, for that matter.

No, he wouldn't give you the time of day. But I need the money to buy that house.

All right. If you want it back, I'll raise a mortgage. But I do need that money.

Oh, Robert, you're impossible.

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

What?

Hey, you there.

What?

What?

Captain O'Neden. How very nice of us to see you.

May I invite you to...

Ah, sure. The mate of the DeQuincey.

Yeah, I would hunt the DeQuincey, why?

So she sailed without you there?

Oh, yeah. Well, you see, I had this most terrible twist, God.

Just before we saved.

And Captain Palmer insisted that I signed myself off.

I...

Don't see what's so funny.

Oh, come on.

Will you not have a drink, but...

Oh, come on.

Just give me a drink.

Oh, it's me savings.

I've just gone out all me savings.

Will you come inside, sir?

You'd be careful about Hatbox, my boy.

Oh, Mr. Williams. Would you put that trunk just up on the landing?

And I'll sort out where everything goes later on.

Oh, come on, shall I let you?

I thought you would look at Robert's living here.

Oh, I am.

But you must admit it does seem a bit bleak.

It's like one of these ships.

I've got to get it all tied up.

Which room do you want? I've got plenty to choose from here.

Can I have the big one at the top?

I thought we'd love that, sir.

Oh, come on, let's eat. So bright and sunny.

And from the window I can see all the ships coming and going.

Oh, well, all right.

Do you think the power will agree?

Agree?

Well, they'll just have to, won't they?

Come on, let's go up and have a look at this.

Come along in, Mr. Harris. Come along. You know my wife, of course.

Oh, we've met on many occasions. Good day to you, Mrs. O' Needon.

Mr. Harris, your wife is well-laced.

And as active as ever on her committees?

You'll take some share, eh, of course.

A new, new thank you.

Urgent, business, your notes in?

Yes, indeed, urgent. So I'll come straight to the point.

You have put up my house for sale.

Yes, yes, so a regrettable decision, but forced upon me by circumstance.

Quite so. And you are asking the exorbitant price of £1,400.

Yes, yes, that is so. Good.

Then £1,400 it shall be.

I beg your pardon.

It's quite simple, Mr. Harris. We are going to buy our house from you.

Oh. Who do you... I'm afraid that isn't possible.

Not possible. I don't understand.

You know who I think it is. You always says what a charming house it would eat to live in.

McCarty.

No, I can assure you it is not, Mr. Macauley.

Although I believe you do know the man, Mr.... Mr. Dunn-Woody.

My sister's Clark.

Mrs. Fraser's chief clerk, there is a deal of difference.

Not in my eyes there isn't Mr. Harris. He is an employee.

You sold him our house.

He paid in cash. And now he'll excuse me.

A clerk living in our house.

But how...

Where would a man like that get that amount of money?

Exactly. Elizabeth doesn't pay in that well.

Next.

Name.

Adolphus Craig.

Age. 31.

Yeah.

All right, Mr. Bens.

I'll do it.

Make him out with you.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

Make him out there.

Good, up on deck, report on the mate.

Let me see that list of names, will you, Bens?

Yes, sign this man.

Kirk, yes, sir. I know he's nothing to write over there.

Oh, it's a shifty little rat.

Yeah, I know that. But I have to take what I can get on this Belfast run.

Word's good around, is it?

All right, has that superstitious lot, sailors?

Well, I'm not superstitious, are you, Bens?

No.

And if I get rid of Kirk, I'll be short-handed.

All right, then.

You signed him. He's your responsibility.

All right, I, sir.

When will they be finished loading?

Early tomorrow morning, we can sail on the noontail.

Come on, it gives me some time to make some inquiries.

Lettie? Yes? Will you tell me something?

I don't know if I can.

Remember the one of them, huh?

I can't for the life of me think which used to bring me chemo-mile flowers.

I suppose he? No, silly to wash my hair with.

My mother used to make a potion out of the flowers,

and then I rinse my hair with it.

I'd have very fragrant hair in those days.

Now, what's all this talk about in miles?

Nothing. I just wondered where do you add that, sir?

I see.

Of course, now we're living closer.

You'll see a lot more of Samuel and William, won't you?

Yes.

Williams and I's boy?

Yes. Of course, Samuel's great fun to be with, but...

But, well, Williams much more grown up.

I see. I think I'll go to bed now.

Sweet dreams.

Let's eat.

Now that we're all living in the house together, are you going to marry father?

Bless your child, I've again had that idea.

Besides which, you've lost me.

But, are you?

Wait and see.

I wouldn't mind if you did, wouldn't you?

No, you'd be more like an older sister than a stepmother.

Go on, go to bed.

Not easy. Good night, old boy.

Come on, get on. Leave it your own way.

We'll pay it over.

There'll be no breakfast for anyone.

Let's be a fish for eight o'clock.

Where do you think you're going?

Well...

To chocolate, be looser.

I'll tell you when I want the cargo chopped.

Now you stay topside.

Well, I'm Mr. Banks.

Come on.

Good morning, Captain.

Good morning, ladies.

I am the Nadine Choir.

I may say you're asking a lot. These matters are confidential.

Well, where my ships are concerned, I don't give a damn.

Now, what did you find out?

Two insurance companies have just issued large policies in the Charlotte Rose.

One must have five thousand pounds, which must surely be three thousand, which is no.

Who took them out?

Well, they couldn't tell me.

Oh, come on, man.

They couldn't have needed.

They were probably under false names, and in a case they're placed through middle men.

There is no way to find them.

Gentlemen.

Gentlemen, I greatly regret having to announce that we've just heard that these steam-ship

and quincy found it and sank with all hands two hours out of Belfast this morning.

Where does that leave you, Anita?

The highly profitable cargo of iron plates for Belfast.

Oh, damage. You're not going now.

Sure. I think you're a fool.

I'm all soaked to my eyes and deadened.

I need the money.

Well, I wish you a...

Thank you, sir.

Hey, you're good stuff on the Belfast, what?

I've been selling within the hour.

Lucky you're not married.

It's right that you're thanks, Christ.

I'm sure you'll be well.

I'm sure that you'll be.

Twenty pounds, but why?

No, I'm just keeping.

Well, I won't need that much, and only we've got a week of most.

I'm happy to lead.

Oh?

Mm, Storm, sort of like that.

Hey, Charlotte at home.

No, she's such a sister-in-law's.

But then she didn't know you were sailing, no more did I?

Pity, yeah.

Like I've seen her.

Well, she's getting quite used to that by now.

Anyway, it could be back in no time, I'm sure.

Oh, hi, of course.

No, I'm just not, sir.

You realise that this house is in my name?

Yes?

And what I mean is it's not part of the Aladdin mine, I said, it's, sir.

Mine.

Oh, I'm in common.

Yes?

Oh, come what, may they can't take it away.

You and Charlotte will always have somewhere to live.

Oh, so were you, James, unless you're planning to move out?

Huh?

No, no, no, of course not.

Ah, and another thing.

Um, and Mrs Gibson will be calling.

Now she comes highly recommended, and I want you to hire her as a housekeeper.

James, I believe you do this quite deliberately.

We get to this point, and then you change the subject.

Well, I refuse to be treated like some child's rag doll to be picked up and put down on you.

Please, time and again we get to this point, and then you back away.

Miss Gah.

James, I'm talking about you and...

Back from Ireland.

I'll not be here.

Well, it will be.

I'll explain then.

Oh, you'll get on your downship.

But don't you think, Mother, if I'm to work at phrases I should know something about business.

When you're old enough, you'll be allowed on the floor of the exchange.

Yes, but in the meantime, I could be learning something useful like bookkeeping.

There are clarks to do all that.

None of my gloves.

Don't you work is not for you, William.

I just thought it might help. That's all. I want to do something useful.

And so you shall.

Yes, but now.

You still have another year to go up mathematical school.

I'm going to be late for my dressmakers.

Mother?

We're talking anything.

But Mother?

Is my sister in?

No, sir. A business appointment.

Oh, Mr. O'Ledin, if you could spare a moment, sir.

I'm not sure that I care to.

Oh, I think it might be to your advantage, sir. It's about your house.

Well...

Well...

Well, first of all, sir, may I say how much I regret you're taking it so much and miss my buying your house?

I think you will regret it more than I, Mr. Dunwoody, and so will your wife.

I think it is a mistake attempting to move out of your social class.

Oh, I don't intend to live there.

They don't.

Oh, no, sir. I bought it as an investment.

My intention is to let it.

Yes, indeed.

You're on a seven-year lease. I, uh...

Perhaps I hope you won't feel I'm being too presumptuous, but I wondered if perhaps you and Mrs. O'Ledin might be interested.

If you're suggesting, Mr. Dunwoody, that Mrs. O'Ledin and I could tolerate you being our landlord.

Only in name, sir.

How much?

Two hundred pounds per annum.

Two hundred? For a seven-year lease. That's...

Mrs. Dunwoody, that is...

That is good business, sir.

Never known a fair crossing, sir.

No shot, no...

It's just having like a burger.

What, last?

It never does. Not the Irish sea.

Darkening up towards the northwest.

You've got the Belfast, all right.

So the return's up. It's gonna be the rough and...

Brains is, sir.

Could have behaved in himself.

He's been fine, sir. Mind, I've barely let him out of my sight.

Barely.

That one's for twice. I haven't got eyes in the back of my head.

Captain, I want you to go below decks and search every inch.

I'm sure he's done something.

You really think that's necessary, sir?

That's her, too.

Two innocent by us.

I'd like you to go now, Captain, if you please.

Hi, Isaac.

It's for rings, sir.

I think you'd better come along to the after-home.

I've saw him through and filled up again with sword-a-strun pitch.

Mission must.

I got him. I didn't get my hand.

You'll leave him, Pete.

What, sir?

Look, I want to find out who's behind all this.

Kirk's not clever enough to plan all this himself.

Now the man that paid Kirk,

some paid the premiums on those policies.

So-so smiles.

He used the guy.

And there was the answer staring at me from this morning's paper.

Well, don't keep me in suspense, read it.

The governor's required.

Immediate vacancy, good references, essential.

Three children, own quarters, staff kept.

Sir Charles Hellsby.

Sir Charles Hellsby?

Do you know him?

Yes, we've built several ships for him.

He's a millionaire.

Oh, I don't know.

It's just that I'm so miserable at home.

James is our thoughtless wretch.

But then he was the same with Anne.

And that fond of Charlotte, I worry how she'd take my going.

Well, she could go and stay without Mary.

Is she's always pleased to have her?

That's true.

Oh, I don't know what's best.

I know James.

And if anything will bring him to his senses, this will.

You apply for that position, Letty.

And I will write you a blowing testimony.

And I'll say that, May not she want this red offer,

Trade.

All the long and long of all the rolling with you.

And may I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

I roll.

Do you think having an agent in door can not stand in you?

Who is inblogspot meansicken himself.

I start with him through every tin as in Belfast.

You could not get away from me.

That a fish could whittle.

I will stick him into cabin.

Of almost to a face with the light doors.

Take it steady.

I'm sure to have left something I always do.

And that forgetful I forget my head.

If it wasn't tied on.

Sweetheart, you shouldn't have.

Here, I've got something for you too.

Off gone, I.

It on the way.

It is the saloon of the Charlotte Rose.

Stoned back to Liverpool.

Hellfire from land.

All but half a mile.

Straight down.

We've got 20 miles off the coast of ice.

No only is still he pushing us around a bit,

but then you'd expect that in the middle of the I.O.C., haven't you?

Ugh.

What?

No, no, no.

Could you enjoy yourself in Belfast, didn't you?

Mr. Baines, is he?

Mr. Baines is hunting.

No, no, please.

He will sound as boats, not to her, won't you?

Nice little bark.

Yes.

But down with all hands, just up the coast of Anglessey.

Is he at a cargo of iron plates?

I would never on that vessel, son.

No, I know your word.

I'll tell you.

I signed on, but, well, I got a better offer, so I jumped ship before we sailed.

Yeah, Tom, so will you?

I don't want to be too long getting back to Liverpool, do we?

Very good, sir.

I go and put the terrific strain on a ship.

All that camp is in a storm.

Still?

I expect the salad rose was built strong enough to take it.

Don't you think Mr. Kirk?

Hi, Isaac.

Hi.

How did you come to have so much money on you, Mr. Kirk?

Well, it all be saying, you couldn't it?

Ah, so you remember where I mean that, eh?

Oh, yes, I've tried that.

I've sold a step from that.

Making sure they go down.

Just needs to spring a couple of timbers, you know.

Oh, Mr. must be torn away and it goes down like stones.

Ah, but you're who'd do that, sir?

They'd be drowned.

Not if they did it in the fine weather, or they could jump ship before it got rough, and they'd save their miserable skins, wouldn't they?

But what, I will?

I come to the cut with Pete.

There's a budget into the other ships, too, eh?

Don't I'm not in the mount any other ships?

I said, he's a budget into the other ships.

Yes.

Who paid you?

Who paid those premiums?

You tell me you're back, John!

I can't! I can't tell you that.

Oh, for God's sake, take some sale, inser.

You have to hold you, send me?

Right, I'm taking you there.

I'm gonna chain you to the Missy list.

No, no.

Who paid you?

Who paid you?

Look, Harley!

Look, Harley!

Look, Harley!

Oh, the humiliation?

Now, now, sir, er...

It can all look very nice when it's attended, too.

We'll have it all cleaned up and decorated.

We'll have an attractive wallpaper, and you'll have your own furniture.

Some flowers, perhaps?

I know, but the shop, Robert, it's as if the last 20 years ago we put nothing.

All these... these model ships.

They're saviours.

Did you make this one?

I imagine so.

Well...

I'll have to resign from all my committees.

Stop, brother of yours, he's too brave.

Can you read Kirk?

Yes, sir.

State's here.

The McCauley puts you...

Where shall we keep him?

The afterhold, I think.

You stay down here in the dark until we dock.

That I'll repair it while you were celebrating in Belfast.

This is the charlotte rose for someone like you.

As soon as we dock, I'll turn him over to the police.

We'll let some of his friends in the Royal Anquet hear about this.

They'll get justice.

Seaman's justice.

I've told you time and time again not to let anyone into that office without consulting me first.

And the fact that he told you he was a friend of Mrs. Fraser is no excuse.

Friend, indeed.

Madam?

Yes?

Madam?

Daniel Fockett is in there.
