00:00:11Get her!
00:00:16Stop! Stop!
00:00:18Please! Please!
00:00:22Stop!
00:00:32Leave her!
00:00:33Leave her!
00:00:34Leave her!
00:00:39Stop them, please!
00:00:41Stop them!
00:00:44All right, Baxter. Get her up.
00:00:46The poor woman will talk to you as there's an inn.
00:00:49We will confine her until an asylum can be filed.
00:00:53Head on.
00:00:55Curse you, Lady Glyde, my betrayer!
00:00:58May your body twist that fork on the higher tower of Blackwater Park!
00:01:05And I didn't! I didn't let him know!
00:01:09Move it!
00:01:09Anne!
00:01:12All right, what is this?
00:01:13Come on!
00:01:15Well, let's just say it is poor Anne's.
00:01:17She's in need of clothes.
00:01:19Oh, and there is excellent news.
00:01:20The good Count has agreed to stay on.
00:01:23For several more weeks, I hope.
00:01:37So the Count is no cousin, but yes, he is a specialist.
00:01:41God knows what he was hired to do in this house.
00:01:43But the signature, he helped us!
00:01:45No!
00:01:46He knew I would not let you sign, so he pretended to be our ally.
00:01:49Like a stupid girl, flattered by his attention, I led him straight to Anne.
00:01:54So what will they do?
00:01:58We will not wait to see.
00:01:59We are leaving.
00:02:03And Laura, for all his talk, I am sure the Count is more dangerous than any of them.
00:02:10We will never let him see what we feel.
00:02:23Come on!
00:02:25Come on!
00:02:26Little girl!
00:02:29Oh, oh.
00:02:32Mais...
00:02:32Do you see, Anne?
00:02:36Come on, Dad!
00:02:37Come on, Dad!
00:02:38Oh.
00:02:45Mrs. Riddout?
00:02:56Mrs. Riddout?
00:03:01Mrs. Riddout, I need your help again to send a telegram.
00:03:09Margaret, where's Mrs. Riddout?
00:03:11She's gone, miss.
00:03:13Gone where?
00:03:14She's left.
00:03:15You see, I'm to be housekeeper.
00:03:17You?
00:03:18The other servants have had their notice.
00:03:24The last of them are off now.
00:03:31Apart from Liza here.
00:03:37You mean it is just Liza and you?
00:03:39Oh, yes, miss.
00:03:41Sir Percival has been very kind after what happened with Mr. Hartwright.
00:03:50Margaret Porcher is on their side.
00:03:52She's housekeeper to him now.
00:03:53She is more than that to him.
00:04:01Not for me.
00:04:07I doubt I can do better.
00:04:17Ladies, may I present to you my dear wife, who has just now joined our company.
00:04:24Can I say how pleased I am to be of the party?
00:04:42They are clearing the house.
00:04:43Yes, it is happening just as Walter Hartwright warned.
00:04:46He begged me to believe him and I just turned away, but I see it so clearly now.
00:04:50He was innocent, Marion.
00:04:53They made him their victim.
00:04:55We will leave as soon as it is dark.
00:04:58The station is half an hour's walk.
00:04:59If we catch the late train, we are safe.
00:05:01Take what you can.
00:05:02I will join you on the lawn after dinner.
00:05:27Beg pardon, sir.
00:05:28Beg pardon, sir.
00:05:34How can you get through so much cream, Oscar?
00:05:37A taste for sweets is the innocent taste of women and children.
00:05:41I love to share it with them.
00:05:43Another bond, dear ladies, between you and me.
00:05:47No, this weather is impossible.
00:05:50It must break soon.
00:05:52It will break, I have told you.
00:05:55Soon now.
00:06:01By the way, there have been reports of poachers in the park with guns.
00:06:05Baxter is standing guard, but I consider it highly dangerous.
00:06:08None of you shall be in the grounds tonight.
00:06:09You understand?
00:06:11I take it the garden is safe?
00:06:14Yes, provided you stay in it and do not venture out.
00:06:33Miss Fairley, I must appeal to you on a question of the greatest importance.
00:06:36Indeed, you might say that the honor of my country is at stake, unless you have some more pressing
00:06:41business, in which case I could accompany you.
00:06:44You see, the English were always reviling the Italians for their music.
00:06:49I am sorry, I know nothing of music.
00:06:52But I'm sure they forgot Rossini.
00:06:55As a very great personal favor to me,
00:06:58might I ask you to listen to this and say if anything more sublime has been composed.
00:07:27I have no wish to interrupt the count, but I am feeling a little faint and I must get some
00:07:32air.
00:07:39The count would not let me go.
00:07:41We must be quick or the train will leave.
00:07:43But the poachers and guns.
00:07:44There are none.
00:07:45That was just to scare us.
00:07:52I hope we never see it again.
00:08:01The road cannot be far now.
00:08:08I think I can see it just to show you.
00:08:10No!
00:08:13Quickly!
00:08:15What?
00:08:18No!
00:08:19No!
00:08:23No!
00:08:25No!
00:08:28No!
00:08:28No!
00:08:32No!
00:08:33It was Baxter.
00:08:33There were no poachers.
00:08:35I knew who we were but he's still shot.
00:08:37What would they call it?
00:08:38An accident?
00:08:39At first light, we will go to the stables.
00:08:42I will tell the groom that Sir Percival requires him urgently
00:08:44and then we can take the cart ourselves.
00:08:47But lock your doors tonight.
00:08:50Stay with me.
00:08:52No.
00:08:52I must know what they're doing.
00:09:03What's the letter count?
00:09:05Why don't you come and sit down?
00:09:07Because I want to check the rooms on either side of here.
00:09:10Miss Fairley is sharp enough to come down and listen.
00:09:13She's an extraordinary woman.
00:09:14You seem quite besotted with Miss Fairley.
00:09:16Yes?
00:09:17Well, we are on the edge of our precipice.
00:09:19And let me tell you, Sir Percival,
00:09:22if you give these women one more chance,
00:09:24they will push you over it.
00:09:50Sir Percival,
00:09:51but I'm not and understand.
00:09:51He's talking as little.
00:09:53He's got a job to do.
00:09:54He's tied up with his player.
00:09:57Sir Percival,
00:09:58you are quite satisfied.
00:10:00We are alone and understand.
00:10:02We've reached a place.
00:10:04How do you know?
00:10:05I'm not in turn.
00:11:14Come in and sit down. You're as restless as a cat.
00:11:17Have some brandy and water.
00:11:19You know how careful we must be.
00:11:21Cold water with pleasure at the spoon, basin of sugar.
00:11:25Boutique crée, my friend, a wonderful drink.
00:11:28A sickly mess, you mean?
00:11:30You foreigners are all alike.
00:11:34It is here, at last, the rain that washes away our sins.
00:11:41So, Sir Percival, how would you treat a woman who opposes you?
00:11:46Knock her down.
00:11:47Yes, that is one inferior route chosen by the lower orders.
00:11:51It is a very way to deny all their suspicions and never, under any circumstances, to accept the provocation at
00:11:58their hands.
00:11:59Yet, despite all my warning and entreaties, you keep forgetting this crucial fact with your wife's sister.
00:12:05Now, you hired me as a specialist.
00:12:07Are you going to stand in the rain all night?
00:12:09So, as a specialist, I tell you, Sir Percival, in this sweet rain, that there are limits even to the
00:12:17male prejudices of your good country.
00:12:19We cannot keep these women here indefinitely.
00:12:23Of course, but where are you leading?
00:12:25I saw that your wife's sister would lose us the signature to the deed.
00:12:29I turned that to our advantage and secured Anne Catherick.
00:12:32But without the signature, we are having to do something infinitely more complicated and infinitely more dangerous.
00:12:38Are you ready for that?
00:12:40Of course.
00:12:42But how?
00:12:43Debt's mount.
00:12:44And there is danger, too.
00:12:46Anne almost told the women of the will my father made at the end.
00:12:48Anne, and I still cannot find where she has hidden it.
00:12:51And the will would disinherit you?
00:12:52Why?
00:12:53You have hinted at something worse.
00:12:55It will never be disclosed.
00:12:56Now, come to the point.
00:12:58I would have acted earlier and more crudely against my wife.
00:13:00You restrained me.
00:13:02Our time is running out, so I say to you again, how?
00:13:05I shall tell you how.
00:13:08First, we must separate the women of the women at breakfast.
00:13:10Do you understand that, Percival?
00:13:12And we must separate them tomorrow at breakfast.
00:13:14Then I, Fosco, will resort to that most important thing.
00:13:18Our program may be são muito safi.
00:13:20Thank you, boy.
00:13:23Oh, my goodness.
00:13:25Oh.
00:13:35Five!
00:13:36Wait, bring a light.
00:13:37Someone is out there.
00:13:38Let's find them!
00:13:48Oh, my God.
00:14:21Oh, my God.
00:14:39Oh, my God.
00:15:15Oh, my God.
00:15:36Tomorrow breakfast.
00:15:38Tomorrow breakfast.
00:15:39Tomorrow breakfast.
00:15:41Oh, my God.
00:15:42Oh, my God.
00:15:52Oh, my God.
00:16:12No breakfast.
00:16:14Not a breakfast with the chemist.
00:16:22Oh, my God.
00:16:26Oh, my God.
00:16:30Oh, my God.
00:16:35Oh, my God.
00:16:45Oh, my God.
00:17:17Oh, my God.
00:17:19Oh, my God.
00:17:22Oh, my God.
00:17:25Oh, my God.
00:17:32Oh, my God.
00:17:44Oh, my God.
00:17:45Oh, my God.
00:18:02Oh, my God.
00:18:06Oh, my God.
00:18:10Oh, my God.
00:18:21Oh, my God.
00:18:30Oh, my God.
00:18:33Oh, my God.
00:18:42Oh, my God.
00:18:50Oh, my God.
00:18:57Oh, my God.
00:18:57Oh, my God.
00:19:07Oh, my God.
00:19:29Oh, my God.
00:19:32I thought you would have done it.
00:19:33Glide used Margaret against Hartwright.
00:19:35He has paid her to kill Laura.
00:19:36This is madness, Marion.
00:19:38Who else would you have involved?
00:19:39The groom?
00:19:40The stable boy?
00:19:41The doctor himself?
00:19:42There is not the slightest proof of any of these accusations,
00:19:44and I will not hear of it.
00:19:45Do you understand?
00:19:46But they were all in league against us.
00:19:49There is some secret hidden.
00:19:52A will that would disinherit Sir Percival.
00:19:54I shall not listen to this, Marion.
00:19:56Glide would have the perfect right to take legal action against you.
00:20:02Now, please, come down.
00:20:06For Laura's sake.
00:20:20For my soul.
00:20:25It was for Laura's soul.
00:20:37It was for Laura's soul.
00:20:39I would not go to the funeral.
00:20:41I said I was ill.
00:20:44And weeks had passed before I could bear to see her grave.
00:21:03I promised Laura.
00:21:07Whatever it takes.
00:21:18And so I left Limeridge.
00:21:20Seen of all my happiest memories.
00:21:23As readily as one leaves a scorched desert.
00:21:26And with only one thought in my heart.
00:21:29The promise I had made at her graveside.
00:21:32I set out on a new life.
00:21:33As I say, Fosco sent word.
00:21:35They are happy for you to join them.
00:21:37But I cannot understand why you'd wish to go.
00:21:40I have probably misjudged them.
00:21:42And I feel the change of Seen will do me good.
00:21:44Did you find news of Anne Catherick?
00:21:46As we thought she was in the private asylum.
00:21:47But it's impossible to discover where.
00:21:49Mrs Catherick has gone abroad.
00:21:51So, there's no more I can do.
00:21:58Yes.
00:22:05No.
00:22:09I don't have any clue to her.
00:22:12It must be obvious.
00:22:13No.
00:22:14No.
00:22:15No I can't do it.
00:22:17No.
00:22:18No.
00:22:19No.
00:22:20No.
00:22:21No.
00:22:22No.
00:22:23No.
00:22:23No.
00:22:40I do, Miss Fairley.
00:22:42Naturally, I offer you my deepest sympathies.
00:22:47We are beguiled that you have elected to join us.
00:22:51Was the hotel to your liking?
00:22:53Very much so.
00:22:54Now, shall we start the tour, Count?
00:22:57I've always longed to see the museum.
00:23:09What gifts they left for the dead.
00:23:13Do you believe in ghosts, Miss Fairley?
00:23:17If I do, Count, we talk in the most haunted room in England.
00:23:24It is so long since we last talked together.
00:23:29I still remember that wonderful twilight.
00:23:32This room is not to my taste, Count.
00:23:36I shall move on to the treasures.
00:23:37Of course, my in-room.
00:23:50I remember the twilight.
00:23:53And I have often reflected since that you were right.
00:23:57Right?
00:23:59The heart does not mend by morning.
00:24:03Now, I think I will take your carriage back if you have no objection.
00:24:06I feel a little tired.
00:24:08But I have no wish to interrupt Madame Fosco's tour.
00:24:11Of course.
00:24:13The carriage will take you safely back to the hotel.
00:24:15Well, I look forward to talking to you further over dinner.
00:24:29I am Miss Fairley, with Count Fosco's party.
00:24:34They are out for the day, but it appears an item of my wardrobe was sent to his suite by
00:24:38mistake.
00:24:39I wish to collect it.
00:24:47Room 11, Miss.
00:25:36Miss Fairley?
00:25:39I am sorry.
00:25:40My cape was separated from my luggage, and it seems the porter brought it here by mistake.
00:25:45Ah.
00:25:46But you have retrieved it.
00:25:48Good.
00:25:50Well, I followed your example.
00:25:52The museum was too exhausting.
00:25:55And now you're here, will you have some refreshment with me?
00:25:58For a few moments, at least.
00:26:05I think we're all in need of some refreshment.
00:26:10No.
00:26:20See, Miss Fairley, my mice have not eaten for a little while.
00:26:24They are deprived of their food.
00:26:26And since they know no other morality, food is their only notion of virtue.
00:26:32A good notion of virtue, too, says Fosco, but I am a bad man who says what others only think.
00:26:42And what is your notion of virtue, Miss Fairley?
00:26:45I suppose the same as my notion of goodness.
00:26:48Excellent, Miss Fairley, excellent.
00:26:51Here is my notion of goodness.
00:26:54Tincture of laudanum.
00:26:56Many find it helps their disposition.
00:26:59And since your notion of goodness evidently embraces lying, stealing keys, ransacking people's rooms,
00:27:07and destroying their property in search of evidence against them,
00:27:11I'm sure it can extend to include laudanum.
00:27:17Which is what you were looking for!
00:27:24Yes, as I thought, this woman here was attempting to steal from me.
00:27:28She stinks of laudanum.
00:27:29Collect her things and throw her out.
00:27:32There has been a murder!
00:27:34My sister was murdered by your husband!
00:27:36Get off!
00:27:37Go on!
00:27:38Stay down, I love you!
00:27:39Get off with your hands!
00:27:44You're lucky to be able to tear yourself up.
00:27:46You're lucky to be able to tear yourself up.
00:28:07See, Miss Fairley, attack me, and I must defend myself.
00:28:12I fear that once your uncle hears of this, you will be an outcast.
00:28:15Liar, thief, betrayer of hospitality.
00:28:19Degenerate.
00:28:20You think I care?
00:28:22I only want to do you and your kind harm.
00:28:25And I will commit any crime to achieve it.
00:28:28Oh, corruption, when once it begins, is a wonderful thing, is it not?
00:28:32This is just the beginning, Miss Fairley.
00:28:35But there is no going back.
00:28:38I feel nothing but the affinity of master for pupil.
00:28:52I feel nothing but the fact that you're not only caused a scandal, you also made wild accusations,
00:29:12which may well prompt legal action.
00:29:15Your uncle is severely angry and disturbed and will now not have you back at Limeridge.
00:29:19In the circumstances, I have persuaded him to make available a small allowance, enough for London rooms,
00:29:24but only on one condition, that you go nowhere near Limeridge.
00:29:28Not even the church.
00:29:30But why?
00:29:31Am I not to be allowed to visit my own sister's grave?
00:29:34I am sorry, Marion, but I must have your undertaking.
00:29:37The alternative is destitution.
00:29:44Why, come on, darling.
00:29:45You're a cashman.
00:29:46Get back at me.
00:29:47Go on.
00:29:52Give us a garden, dear.
00:29:54Here, give us a garden.
00:29:57Oh, that's a good show, baby.
00:29:58Go on.
00:30:15How much?
00:30:16Ten dinners.
00:30:17She's outside, isn't she?
00:30:23Sorry.
00:30:24Better off.
00:30:25Get over.
00:30:26Give me.
00:30:27Hey.
00:30:32Your offer for a portrait is generous, but this setting is hardly appropriate.
00:30:37Why not commission an artist of your own station?
00:30:41Because, Mr. Hartwright, I wish to see you.
00:30:50Go, please, Miss Fairley.
00:30:53There is nothing here for you.
00:30:55Mr. Hartwright, I know you were wronged.
00:30:58I've paid a lawyer to trace you.
00:30:59I am aware that you were...
00:31:00I am changed, Miss Fairley.
00:31:03Whatever was is no more.
00:31:06Now, I must escort you to a cab.
00:31:08You should not be here.
00:31:17So you will not help me.
00:31:19The subject is closed.
00:31:22Very well, Mr. Hartwright.
00:31:24I need someone to help me, and I'm prepared to achieve that.
00:31:27I have changed, too.
00:31:29We have all had to change, have we not?
00:31:30You are not the only one who has suffered, and I will do anything to get help.
00:31:33You have refused.
00:31:37Perhaps one of these men will oblige me.
00:31:39What?
00:31:51Enough!
00:31:54I will talk to you somewhere else.
00:31:59We have the power to avenge her, not to let anyone forget.
00:32:03Forget?
00:32:04I think of her every moment of every hour.
00:32:07Yes, I would love to forget how I failed her.
00:32:10You had no choice.
00:32:12So I told myself when I left you that the criminals would be caught, and she would seek me out.
00:32:20What a miserable lie.
00:32:21I slunk away from the one I loved, and I let her die.
00:32:26No, you did not.
00:32:27I remember how you fought back, even after they crushed you.
00:32:31Nora remembered, too.
00:32:33She spoke of it often at the end.
00:32:37I'm as guilty as you are.
00:32:40I counseled her to forget you.
00:32:44If you are right, they planned it perfectly.
00:32:48You will find no evidence against these men.
00:32:50Listen, the laudanum you saw proves nothing.
00:32:54But do you not see?
00:32:55They used it.
00:32:57Once she was weak, Margaret Portra and Liza could force her to the tower.
00:33:01I cannot act alone.
00:33:03As a woman, it is hard enough to travel alone.
00:33:05But I do have a little money.
00:33:09Will you help me?
00:33:16Yes.
00:33:17I will do anything.
00:33:21Where can we begin?
00:33:23Perhaps with the women.
00:33:25They cannot be hard to trace.
00:33:28If we work together as equals, we can hurt those who hurt us.
00:33:33You are changed.
00:33:35You know what people will think.
00:33:37Let them think what they like.
00:33:39We cannot go back to such scruples.
00:34:03Tell your mistress that Miss Fairley is here with a message from Sir Percival Glide.
00:34:36Yes, Miss?
00:34:38I saw you from the window.
00:34:39What did you want?
00:34:40Was there someone with you?
00:34:41Yes, I have someone with me, Margaret.
00:34:43Perhaps you recall him.
00:34:48Hello, Margaret.
00:34:51Why?
00:34:51Why have you brought him?
00:34:52I bring him because I know you accused him falsely.
00:34:55And you had a part in murdering my sister.
00:34:58It would be as well for you if you told us what your part was.
00:35:04In other words, you know nothing.
00:35:08You're making wild and false accusations.
00:35:11And I could ask my servant to throw you both out.
00:35:14Yes, my servant, Miss.
00:35:16I own this house now.
00:35:18I'm not a housekeeper anymore.
00:35:20And I don't need to be bullied or harassed by the likes of you.
00:35:23Glide bought you the house, didn't he?
00:35:25What if he did?
00:35:27No law that I know of against repaying a retainer for faithful service.
00:35:31But what kind of service?
00:35:33Let me tell you something.
00:35:36The clergyman bows to me here.
00:35:39Even Glide didn't expect that, but it is so.
00:35:42I am a respectable woman.
00:35:44But I am not a respectable man.
00:35:46And I have only you to thank for that.
00:35:49Your lies bought you all this.
00:35:52And others paid dearly for it.
00:35:54I have nothing more to say to you.
00:35:58How are you travelling together, anyway?
00:36:01Are you married?
00:36:03No, you're not, are you?
00:36:06Now go.
00:36:10We will not stop.
00:36:12We mean to find Anne Catherick.
00:36:14You can't.
00:36:16Why not?
00:36:17Why does it frighten you?
00:36:19I merely mean you cannot find her.
00:36:21You know what a state she was in when they took her.
00:36:23Her clothes were so filthy I had to burn them.
00:36:26Leave the poor woman alone.
00:36:28And leave me alone.
00:36:29I am not leaving anything alone.
00:36:32And I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:34I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:35I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:38I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:43I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:46I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:50I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:51I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:51I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:52I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:52I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:53I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:54I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:55I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:55I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:56I don't care what I have to do.
00:36:57I don't care what I have to do.
00:37:01I don't care what I have to do.
00:37:09No, I find nothing at all physically wrong, Miss Fairley.
00:37:12I rather think the symptoms you described
00:37:15must have belonged to some passive infection
00:37:17which took a toll on the nervous system.
00:37:20I feel sure they will not return.
00:37:22You can put your clothes back on.
00:37:25Dr. Kitson, I also wish to ask you about a patient
00:37:28who I think you were once involved in committing to an asylum.
00:37:32A Miss Anne Catherick.
00:37:35Anne Catherick, yes, yes, very sad.
00:37:38I want to know where she is.
00:37:40I fear that's quite impossible, Miss Fairley.
00:37:42You must know that all such matters are entirely confidential.
00:37:45Now, please, go to the cloakroom and put your clothes back on.
00:37:49I'm afraid I have to know.
00:37:51I find her tone rather offensive. I've told you I cannot help.
00:37:55I have other patients to see. I have very little time.
00:37:58You're right. You have very little time.
00:38:00And if you walk out of the door now, I will start to scream.
00:38:03What?
00:38:04I will run into the waiting room and say that you made overtures to me
00:38:06of a most disgusting kind.
00:38:08How dare you?
00:38:09I will swear it.
00:38:11You think they will believe you against me?
00:38:13I am happy to take that risk, Dr. Kitson.
00:38:15Are you?
00:38:15You can be sure there will be scandal.
00:38:18I will have nothing to do with you
00:38:20or with this kind of blackmail.
00:38:22A medical examination will quickly reveal...
00:38:24Your hair on me.
00:38:26I took it from your brush in the cloakroom where I removed my clothes.
00:38:29I will also make a public appeal to your next patient,
00:38:32who is, I believe, the Duchess of Norfolk.
00:38:37If you deny me, I can certainly wound you, perhaps destroy you.
00:38:41And I want nothing from you but information which concerns me.
00:38:44Nobody need know you have provided it.
00:38:51Please, put some clothes on.
00:38:54I'll tell you what you want to know, and much good may it do you.
00:38:59I want to know her history.
00:39:01And also where she is now.
00:39:06She was moved
00:39:08to a more secure assignment, to Gillis in Cornwall.
00:39:11I have not seen her since her recapture,
00:39:13but I have told she's of no use to anyone now.
00:39:16What little mind she had is quite gone.
00:39:20Your name's Fairley.
00:39:22You related to
00:39:23Philip Fairley of the Limeridge House?
00:39:27That was my father.
00:39:28Ah.
00:39:30Are you aware that Anne's mother, Jane Catherick,
00:39:32used to work on the Limeridge estate when you were in your cradle?
00:39:35It is possible.
00:39:36She conceived out of wedlock.
00:39:39And later, to avoid embarrassment,
00:39:40a job was found for her by your father, I believe.
00:39:43Far away on the estate of some friends, the glides.
00:39:47That was the background to Anne's birth.
00:39:50When she was 12, she came to see me because she was morally degraded.
00:39:57Quite beyond control.
00:40:00Why?
00:40:01I do not know.
00:40:03Much was concealed from me,
00:40:05and it was obvious that her mother had been paid for her silence.
00:40:10But Anne devoted something to me,
00:40:13to no one else, which may seem suggestive to you.
00:40:16She had left something.
00:40:19A lock of her hair in your father's grave.
00:40:23Now, why would she do that?
00:40:25I cannot think.
00:40:28No?
00:40:30Hmm.
00:40:31It rather seemed to me that the Catholics had been used as some kind of physical resource.
00:40:39What do you mean?
00:40:40And that your father had an involvement.
00:40:45You've obviously taken after him yourself.
00:40:49Now, I would be grateful if you would leave and never return.
00:40:52Without the protection of your class,
00:40:55you'd certainly be on the streets yourself.
00:40:58Most probably in the gutter.
00:41:09You think Anne is my father's child?
00:41:13We may never know.
00:41:15But if she is, your father did no greater wrong than many men.
00:41:19You should not confuse his sin with what was done to Laura.
00:41:23But he was my father.
00:41:26Perhaps he started a chain, using people for what he wanted,
00:41:30and I am where it ends.
00:41:33I told myself,
00:41:34if I was acting wickedly, it was for Laura's sake.
00:41:39Now I see it is in my blood.
00:41:42That is not true.
00:41:43It is true.
00:41:46And the Count recognised as much.
00:41:51I cannot go on.
00:41:54Listen to me.
00:41:56I did nothing for you and your sister when it might have mattered,
00:41:59but listen to me now for her sake.
00:42:01If you talk like this, you let them win.
00:42:04You are not giving up, and nor am I.
00:42:08There are two of us now.
00:42:10We will go to Gilmore together.
00:42:13He will not hear us.
00:42:14He must.
00:42:19Laura would have wished it.
00:42:25Very well.
00:42:29But first, we must help Anne.
00:42:32Her mind may be gone,
00:42:35but if we fail Laura,
00:42:37we will not fail her.
00:42:42Especially if she is my sister.
00:42:55You said in your letter that you were friends with the family.
00:42:59We had business in Falmouth,
00:43:01and Sir Percival Glide asked us to see her.
00:43:04Yes, of course.
00:43:05Well, it was Sir Percival that's brought her here in June.
00:43:08He's been very good to her.
00:43:09Well, some aren't, some aren't.
00:43:12This place is more comfortable than a public asylum, sir.
00:43:15It is, as you know, only for those who can pay their way.
00:43:18Anne Catherine gives us no trouble, as you'll see.
00:43:21Mild as a lamb.
00:43:22Though that is partly what she takes for the delusions.
00:43:26Lord, I'm sorry.
00:43:27You have many visitors?
00:43:28I hardly think so, sir.
00:43:29I hardly think so.
00:43:31Most of us are here a long time,
00:43:33and are well out of sight, as you might say.
00:43:34And that's right, he's out of mind, isn't it, sir?
00:43:36Our doctor visits and does what he can,
00:43:38but thems has come here.
00:43:40They're not for curing up here.
00:43:42Not really for curing.
00:43:58Oh, I've just remembered,
00:44:00Sir Percival had this message for you.
00:44:02For me, sir?
00:44:04He wanted to know if you'd heard from Mrs. Catherick,
00:44:06Anne's mother.
00:44:07No, sir, I don't have anything from her, sir.
00:44:10And Sir Percival said I would know.
00:44:17Anne?
00:44:28It is a friend.
00:44:43Laura!
00:44:54Oh, my God, in heaven!
00:45:00Laura!
00:45:12We will see you are not blamed.
00:45:14And for now, nobody need know she has left.
00:45:17It is a private arrangement,
00:45:19and we wish to reimburse you fully for your part in it.
00:45:39But why?
00:45:40Why?
00:45:42It was Anne Catherick who fell.
00:45:43It must have been.
00:45:44They locked her up in the tower,
00:45:46and she threw herself to her death.
00:45:47And we had given her Laura's clothes.
00:45:49Sir, the doctor assumed it was Laura.
00:45:52They looked so alike.
00:45:53And Fosco no longer needed to murder.
00:45:56He had all he wanted,
00:45:56the life of one,
00:45:58the identity of the other.
00:46:01Then it was Anne who gave her life.
00:46:19It has been hours.
00:46:21Why does she not know us?
00:46:22It will take time.
00:46:47We must sleep now.
00:46:49But what if her mind has gone forever?
00:46:53Like Anne.
00:46:57A physical resource.
00:47:01What?
00:47:02It was something the doctor said.
00:47:27Father.
00:47:33conceived out of wedlock she came to see me because she was morally degraded quite beyond
00:47:39control and almost told the women of the will my father made at the end and i still cannot
00:47:43find where she has hidden it there is a secret it is hidden in she had left something a lock
00:47:51of her hair in your father's grave now why would she do that
00:48:10i know he was her father
00:48:14it is so hard to bear we believed in him i thought he was the best who ever lived
00:48:22you cannot be sure yes i am sure
00:48:28and i know where the will is hidden

00:56:24Marion?
00:56:26Laura?
00:56:42Marion?
00:57:20allow me to present mr. Hartwright who was wrongfully accused I am as great an invalid
00:57:27as ever but he intimated I must be here and he is so very obliging as to speak for me
00:57:35the subject is dreadfully embarrassing please hear him and please do not make a noise
00:57:48all of you will have heard that a conspiracy has been unmasked which led to the wrong woman
00:57:54being buried in the church out here and Lady Glide being mistakenly imprisoned we are here today
00:58:02to celebrate the return to limeridge of Lady Glide who is almost restored to full health and my own
00:58:11engagement to her
00:58:22congratulations
00:58:42and so in my dreams I often find myself back in limeridge churchyard in front of the church which is
00:58:50now only a bare shell
00:58:55and I stand thinking of how they changed the letters on the grave the grave that was no longer of
00:59:02my sister Laura
00:59:04but of a child who was shut away for life because a man had abused her
00:59:20of course everything has changed now we live a different life setting our faces bravely forward
00:59:29and perhaps we try not to remind each other treading carefully around the familiar areas of pain
00:59:38but I can never forget the cruel cycle that began so long ago with the birth of an unwanted child
01:00:01and I have one waking prayer
01:00:05and I have one waking prayer
01:00:13let it be over
01:00:20you
