Apologies, miss.

I didn't know how else to wake you.

The Heelshires had to step out for a moment.

They beg your pardon, miss,

and they ask that you wait in the parlor.

It's like something out of a storybook, isn't it?

Oh, the Heelshires have already taken care of that.

And I put your things inside.

Thanks.

Whoa.

Is anyone up there? Hi.

Is anyone up here?

Hi there.

Sorry.

Believe it or not, I was actually

trying not to scare you.

No, I'm sorry I jumped.

I... I thought I heard someone upstairs.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm sorry. It's so stupid.

Are you Mr. Heelshire? No.

I know you're not. Yeah.

Uh, no, I'm the grocery boy.

Well, grocery man. You know.

I own the shop, actually.

Okay. I'm Malcolm, by the way.

Hi.

You must be here for the nanny job.

Yeah. Greta Evans.

I've got some groceries to unpack downstairs

if you want to join me.

I could give you a tour of such exotic locations...

Uh, as the pantry and bread bin.

Does that interest you?

Sounds great. Sure. Lead the way.

You're American, yeah?

Yeah. My first trip to the UK.

All right, let me guess.

California, right?

Montana. In this? Oh.

Yeah. It goes in the basket.

You know, I'm usually so good at these things.

I've got a touch of the gift.

The gift?

Prognosticator, clairvoyant, whatever you like to call it.

Uh, I had a grandmother that read tea leaves.

My mother read palms, so...

Okay, what do you read?

Me? Yeah.

Uh...

Chewing gum.

Okay.

We don't get to choose our gifts, Miss Evans.

Come on, if you'll allow me. Don't be shy.

Allow you to...

Yeah, I'm going to read your gum.

I'm a professional. Trust me.

Okay.

Oh, my God.

All right. Oh. Okay.

Huh.

Interesting teeth marks. Uh...

I see that you're a writer...

From Phoenix, Montana.

It looks like you've come here

to be inspired by the English countryside...

To get away from the hustle and bustle

of your life in the US of A.

No.

Close. Um...

Not at all. No.

Okay, one more try. Okay.

Okay? Just one.

Ah. Okay.

Okay, I see where we went wrong now.

It's very obvious now. Of course.

Um...

I see a dark past.

On the run from someone, are we?

That's what it looks like.

I'll throw it away now.

I'm afraid that was my best attempt at flirting.

Believe it or not, I'm actually

considered charming in this country.

It's okay.

It's amazing that any of us manage

to procreate at all, really.

Bread?

Yeah, in the cupboard behind.

So... Um...

So, what's the family like?

Well, they're nice, you know?

They're very generous.

As good a people as you'll ever hope to meet.

And the son? Brahms?

Brahms.

Oh, he's, um...

Uh...

I'm not sure quite how to explain it, really.

Oh, look.

Mrs. Heelshire...

It's so nice to finally meet you.

Hmm. Where are your shoes?

Uh...

Brahms is very excited to meet you, Miss Evans.
