00:04:59Let's go.
00:05:29Thanks for coming along.
00:05:33I only wish I could do more for you, dearest.
00:05:37I'm becoming quite concerned for you, if truth be told.
00:05:41How so?
00:05:42In regard to your rather severe state of distress.
00:05:47Carla meant a whole lot to me.
00:05:50More than I even knew, I guess.
00:05:52It's quite apparent.
00:05:54He must have been rather a fine fellow to have so taken your heart.
00:05:57I... I wish I might have known him.
00:06:02I guess you wouldn't say that if you knew he was a Fenian.
00:06:06You don't say.
00:06:08Priest.
00:06:10How remarkable.
00:06:11Folks believe that's why he got killed.
00:06:14The English found out about him and killed him.
00:06:17The soldiers.
00:06:18I wonder if it might not be beneficial for you to get away from here for a while, Scarlet.
00:06:25From Ireland.
00:06:27Get away?
00:06:28Absent yourself from the geography of your grief, as it will.
00:06:32I think it might do you the world of good.
00:06:35Where would I go?
00:06:37Well, there's no question at all about that.
00:06:40There isn't?
00:06:40England, of course.
00:06:45Go on!
00:06:50Out of the way!
00:06:51We're going to bring you that...
00:06:53Oh, there's the high mucky-muck Lord Fenton away for a bit.
00:06:58No regrets on the part of any here present.
00:07:00Away where?
00:07:02England.
00:07:03But he belongs.
00:07:03It's rumoured that herself will be trailing soon after.
00:07:09Mrs. Butler?
00:07:10Aye.
00:07:11Can you reckon it?
00:07:13The woman must be daft.
00:07:17It's been said about town that you're going to England.
00:07:20Just a little getaway trip.
00:07:22London.
00:07:23They say London's a rough place, like...
00:07:25I think I'll be staying out of the rough parts, you can bet.
00:07:29You'll never forgive me the cheek of it.
00:07:31Of what, Mary?
00:07:32Of what I've come to ask of you.
00:07:35Would you take me with you?
00:07:38Take you?
00:07:38What do you mean?
00:07:39To England.
00:07:41I'd work for the expense of it.
00:07:43I could take care of the baby.
00:07:44I'd do chores, anything.
00:07:46Well, why in the world would you want to go to England, Mary?
00:07:49I cannot remain in Ireland.
00:07:51What do you mean?
00:07:52Why not, honey?
00:07:58God forgive me for the low, disgusting creature I am.
00:08:02I'm with the child.
00:08:14There, there.
00:08:17It's all right now.
00:08:19It's all right.
00:08:20Come on.
00:08:23Does the father know?
00:08:27It's no matter whether he knows or not.
00:08:31I beg you, Mrs. Butler.
00:08:33Take me away.
00:08:34I'll work for the cost of it.
00:08:36I'll make it up to you every shilling.
00:08:38I swear it on the head of your darling babe.
00:08:40Who is the father?
00:08:43Jesus, Mary and Joseph, is there not shaping up with me condition, but I'll put the name to its cause.
00:08:49I beg you not to ask it, Mrs. Butler.
00:08:51I beg you.
00:08:51Listen, just calm down now.
00:08:53Just calm down.
00:08:55I cannot remain in Ireland.
00:08:58I daren't.
00:08:59You do understand that, don't you?
00:09:02Is he a married man, Mary?
00:09:04Is that it?
00:09:06Yes, that's it.
00:09:09He's a married man.
00:09:10Well, supposing I did take you with me, I'll be coming back.
00:09:17You'd have to stay there at least until after.
00:09:21What'll you tell your parents?
00:09:23That'd be all right.
00:09:25I've thought it through.
00:09:28I'd write them.
00:09:30And say I'd come to have quite a fondness for England, that I decided to stay on for a bit.
00:09:35And then after the...
00:09:38I'd come home when I was able.
00:09:40I've thought it through.
00:09:42I beg you, Mum.
00:09:44Please take me with you.
00:09:52Come on, come on!
00:09:58How long has he been feeling poorly, Iris?
00:10:00A couple of days now, Miss Eleanor, and getting sicker, it seems.
00:10:04Eleanor!
00:10:04Rhett told me you were here.
00:10:06Sally, how good to see you.
00:10:08Rhett, Iris has just been telling you.
00:10:10She's telling me that her Rupert isn't at all well.
00:10:12What's wrong, Mum, Iris?
00:10:13You been hurt?
00:10:14No, sir, Mr. Rhett.
00:10:15He just bed off sick.
00:10:17I think it's the fever.
00:10:24How are you, fella?
00:10:26I've been in bed, Mr. Rhett.
00:10:27Sure have.
00:10:29Yeah, Patsy.
00:10:30You were fairly warm, Miss Rupert.
00:10:31It's the yellow fever, Mr. Rhett.
00:10:35Jesus, don't let it be.
00:10:37Okay, I'll have a doctor come down and have a look at you.
00:10:41Meantime, keep him as cool as you can.
00:10:42Well, we got a ten or a dozen cases in Charleston.
00:10:52And there's that couple over at Miss Bruton's place.
00:10:55Might be one of the Mortons.
00:10:57Now this one.
00:11:00I don't have to tell you, it ain't looking good.
00:11:02We haven't had a yellow fever outbreak in four years, Dr. Fix.
00:11:05We got one now.
00:11:06All we can do is hope that it stays contained.
00:11:36We got one now.
00:12:06Number three, Pembroke Terrace, ma'am.
00:12:36Isn't it grand looking, though?
00:12:38Nothing's too good for the Irish.
00:13:06Lord Fenton.
00:13:32Mrs. Butler is expecting you.
00:13:34Yes, my lord.
00:13:40And I thought Dublin was big.
00:13:42From the look of London so far,
00:13:44you could tuck Dublin away in a little bit of corner of it.
00:13:46I bought a little book at the pier about the places to see.
00:13:49I already marked some of them off for you to show me.
00:13:52Now, how far is Westminster Abbey?
00:13:54Come in.
00:13:56Tea, madam.
00:14:01The baby's ready.
00:14:03Thank you, Mary.
00:14:05Richard, this is Mary Boyle.
00:14:07I brought her with me from Adamstown.
00:14:09Mary, this is Lord Fenton.
00:14:11How do you do, sir?
00:14:14Hello there.
00:14:15Tell me, how did you come to bring this girl with you to London?
00:14:27Mary?
00:14:28I'm helping her out.
00:14:30Indeed?
00:14:30She's a big help with the baby.
00:14:34And I'd have had to engage someone here anyhow.
00:14:37And how are you helping her?
00:14:39Well, she's got herself in quite a pickle, as a matter of fact.
00:14:42Oh?
00:14:43She didn't get herself into it all by herself, of course.
00:14:47She's going to have a baby.
00:14:48It's a darn shame.
00:14:49I feel so bad for her.
00:14:51Your Samaritan inclinations would appear to be flourishing, Scarleth.
00:14:54She was desperate.
00:14:55She'll be a whole lot more desperate before it's all done, but I don't think she knows that yet.
00:15:10I'll always love you, Rhett.
00:15:12And I, you, my dearest.
00:15:15This isn't the end of loving, is it?
00:15:19Never.
00:15:24Will you forgive me?
00:15:26For what?
00:15:28There's nothing to forgive.
00:15:30For not giving you our baby.
00:15:33I feel so bad about that.
00:15:38Oh, Shna.
00:15:40There could have just been a bit more time I could have given you our baby.
00:15:48Our baby will be with you.
00:15:51I'll know that.
00:15:52I'll take good care of it, I swear.
00:15:55I know you will, dear.
00:15:56Oh.
00:15:58I know.
00:16:00Kiss me now.
00:16:03Kiss me.
00:16:04Oh, my God.
00:16:05My God.
00:16:06Oh, my God.
00:16:07Oh, my God.
00:16:07Oh, my God.
00:16:07My God.
00:16:08Oh, my God.
00:17:08I'll inform Mrs. Butler that you're here, my Lord.
00:17:23Thank you, Roberts.
00:17:25Would you mind waiting in the drawing room?
00:17:38What's your game?
00:17:45I don't know what you mean, sir.
00:17:46Yes, you bloody well do.
00:17:48Why are you here?
00:17:49Mrs. Butler offered me a helping hand in my trouble.
00:17:52God bless her good heart.
00:17:53How very convenient for you.
00:17:55It was that.
00:17:57And at what juncture is it your intention to disclose to her the origin of your trouble?
00:18:03If by that you mean me bringing you into it, rest assured I have no such intentions.
00:18:07What exactly are your intentions?
00:18:09The best I could manage.
00:18:11Lacking the wherewithal to get to America.
00:18:13Which you denied me.
00:18:14Get out of this house, you little slut.
00:18:20I'll be that soon enough.
00:18:21Sooner.
00:18:22Do you understand me?
00:18:23Do you?
00:18:24The understanding it's for you to be doing seems to me.
00:18:27That I'll take the advantages it's been given to me by your shameless trollop for as long as it's mine for the taking.
00:18:32And there's no one will say me, nay, least of all yourself.
00:18:34Obviously she is unaware of your true feelings towards her, you deceitful little whore.
00:18:39Deceit, is it?
00:18:40There's the pot calling the kettle black.
00:18:45Get out of my sight.
00:18:48Aye.
00:18:49I'll do that quick enough.
00:18:51Seeing that you take myself from your sight to remove you from mine.
00:18:54And I'll welcome the benefit of that.
00:19:04Mother, may I introduce Mrs. Butler?
00:19:18How do you do?
00:19:19It's a pleasure to meet you, ma'am.
00:19:21And my sister Victoria.
00:19:23Hello.
00:19:24How do you do?
00:19:26You could hardly be expected to know Mrs. Butler, but only the Queen is dressed as ma'am.
00:19:31Oh.
00:19:32Well, I'm not too used to some of the customs over here.
00:19:35Many of which are quite tiresome in any case.
00:19:37That would, of course, be a matter of opinion, Mrs. Butler.
00:19:41Call me Scarlet.
00:19:43Excuse us.
00:19:49Scarlet, apparently.
00:19:51Don't know the family.
00:19:53Pleasant.
00:19:54Do you do?
00:19:55It's a string of testing.
00:19:56Hello, of course.
00:19:57No, I absolutely don't know where it's all.
00:19:58Oh, it was splendid.
00:19:59That's the wine.
00:19:59Very good.
00:20:04My son tells me that you are to be the new mistress of Ballyhara House, Mrs. Butler.
00:20:13Yes, I am Lady Fenton, and delighted to be.
00:20:16I understand that you've restored it to something approaching its former splendor.
00:20:19I don't know about that.
00:20:21It's plenty splendid enough for me.
00:20:23I expect you're quite at home in Ireland, Mrs. Butler.
00:20:25In view of the fact that you, yourself, are of Irish extraction, I believe.
00:20:30I love Ireland, yes.
00:20:31I'm afraid I can't share your feelings about that.
00:20:34It was Ireland that killed my husband, you see.
00:20:37I don't believe I do.
00:20:39Your father was murdered by the Irish.
00:20:40Why haven't you told her, Richard?
00:20:43I don't know, as it could be rightly said, that Ireland killed him, though, Lady Fenton.
00:20:47If my husband had not concerned himself with the welfare of that rabble, he would be alive today.
00:20:53I should warn you, Mother, that such characterizations of the Irish might cause some offense to Mrs. Butler.
00:20:58I hardly think I am in need of any sort of warnings from you, Richard.
00:21:02As for my feelings, one can share them, or not, as one likes.
00:21:08Can it be gainsaid, they are a curious race, the Irish.
00:21:12Curious? How?
00:21:14Why, in virtually every aspect of their existence, my dear lady.
00:21:17Altogether, an almost primitive society.
00:21:20Why, if they had their way, they wouldn't even speak English.
00:21:22Well, maybe because that's not their language.
00:21:24And, of course, we are forced to contend with a fanatical element amongst them.
00:21:27I suppose you'd mean the Fenians.
00:21:30Murderers, cutthroats.
00:21:31I had a cousin who was a Fenian.
00:21:33He was a priest.
00:21:34He was one of the people in the whole world most dear to my heart.
00:21:37The English murdered him.
00:21:39Really, Scarlet, there is absolutely no evidence to substantiate that allegation, now, is there?
00:21:50What an interesting name you have, Mrs. Butler, if I may say so.
00:21:54Scarlet.
00:21:55So very unusual.
00:21:57Hmm, quite unique.
00:21:59Presumably one foresaw there could be only one Scarlet O'Hara.
00:22:03May I inquire how you came to possess your unusual name, Mrs. Butler?
00:22:07My pa.
00:22:08It was my father's idea.
00:22:11It's an Irish family name.
00:22:12My grandmother's name is Katie Scarlet.
00:22:15The Scarlets fought with the Irish volunteers alongside the O'Haras at the Battle of the Boyne.
00:22:19My father thought it'd be an appropriate name for a baby girl, especially his first.
00:22:25Oh, how frightfully clever.
00:22:27I should say your father had a quite singular turn of mind.
00:22:31Well, we are a curious race.
00:22:38You are a source of constant astonishment, Scarlet.
00:22:42Why is that?
00:22:43Well, surely you must realize that never in all my experience have I been served champagne by a beautiful woman, or anyone else for that matter, whilst standing in a kitchen.
00:22:53Have a seat, then.
00:22:58The kitchen's one of my favorite rooms in the house.
00:23:01When we were little, my sisters and I would spend a lot of time in the kitchen at Tower.
00:23:05I'll bet this is the first ten minutes of your whole life you've ever spent in a kitchen.
00:23:09I believe you may be right.
00:23:12Will we be lingering long, do you suppose?
00:23:15Probably not.
00:23:16I'm sort of tired.
00:23:19Then by all means.
00:23:22You should retire with all due haste.
00:23:33I guess maybe I'll be sending you off to your own bed first, son.
00:23:38Home?
00:23:39Sometimes a lady just isn't of a mind.
00:23:43Of a mind?
00:23:44Don't be offended, Richard.
00:23:46I'm just not in the mood this evening.
00:23:48I assure you, I shall provide mood enough for both of us, darling.
00:23:58That hurts.
00:23:59Come along now.
00:24:01It'll be your customary inflammatory self.
00:24:03I mean it, Richard.
00:24:04I'll see you through the door.
00:24:10I'm not accustomed to sudden upsets of chastity, Scarlet.
00:24:13Don't be ridiculous.
00:24:14Chastity and I parted company a good long time ago, didn't we?
00:24:17You're hurting me again.
00:24:21I think I'll just let you see yourself out, Lord Fenton.
00:24:25I don't know.
00:24:26I don't know.
00:24:41I don't know.
00:24:46I don't know.

00:26:16I say, Mrs. O'Hara, isn't it?
00:26:20Hello.
00:26:22John Morland, Dunsony, County Meath.
00:26:25Of course. How delightful to see you again, Sir John.
00:26:28Pleasure is mine, I can assure you.
00:26:30Are you in London on a visit?
00:26:31Just passing through, yes.
00:26:34This is Mary Boyle from Ballyharra.
00:26:36She's stopping with me on a short visit, too, with her baby.
00:26:40How do you do, Mrs. Boyle?
00:26:42Pleasure, sir.
00:26:42Oh, I got a letter from your friend Mr. Butler some time ago.
00:26:45He seems quite pleased with the horse he got at the Drahida Fair.
00:26:49Perhaps you're in touch with him.
00:26:51Well, I'm not, actually, no.
00:26:52Well, I must be running along.
00:26:55I'm sure you'll enjoy the play. They say it's charming.
00:26:57I'm sure I will.
00:26:59Mrs. Boyle?
00:27:03Oh, never mind. Just ignore the whole thing.
00:27:10Morning, Alice.
00:27:11Good morning, Mum.
00:27:13The post's come. I've run it for you.
00:27:16Will there be anything else, Mum?
00:27:18No, thank you, Alice.
00:27:24Sally.
00:27:33Oh, dear Lord.
00:27:35Red.
00:27:36Is that all the faster that horsey-goers can run?
00:28:02Do you have one of those to spare?
00:28:05I thought you took the pledge.
00:28:07Well, that was just for Anne.
00:28:11He'd just come here to mop me and my horse.
00:28:13He got some high purpose.
00:28:16I came by to see if you'd grown a beard, lots of hair,
00:28:19like a bona fide hermit instead of just acting like one.
00:28:22I guess I haven't been too sociable of late.
00:28:24Well, the world's still out there, honey.
00:28:28Lots of life's still going on despite your absence.
00:28:31It'll keep.
00:28:33The question is, will you?
00:28:37How about give me a ride back to the house?
00:28:40Only if you offer some spirituous libation upon our arrival.
00:28:44You wrote Scarlett.
00:28:57How'd you know?
00:28:59She wrote me.
00:29:00The letter came a few days ago.
00:29:02It was a nice letter.
00:29:03Well, I can't imagine her writing any other kind.
00:29:07Sounds as though she's like in England.
00:29:09I was in England a short while back, right after the war.
00:29:14I liked it.
00:29:16Well, you know what they say.
00:29:18Remind me.
00:29:19Travel broadens the mind.
00:29:22Did it broaden yours?
00:29:24Well, those who'd say not a bit.
00:29:30Look here, Rep. Butler.
00:29:32I said it before.
00:29:34There's a world out there.
00:29:35It ain't flat when it don't end at the Dunmore Landing fence line.
00:29:39Get yourself away from here for a while,
00:29:41where everywhere you look hollers out what's not there anymore
00:29:44and never will be.
00:29:46If I were to go away, Sally,
00:29:48who'd you have to holler at?
00:29:50Don't you worry about that.
00:29:52I'd locate someone else real quick.
00:29:55Just close your eyes, grit your teeth,
00:29:57and jump the fence, damn it.
00:30:00Hell, it ain't even high.
00:30:01I don't know.
00:30:09You must be joking.
00:30:10Nope.
00:30:11I'm not going to be keeping company with him any longer.
00:30:14Are you...
00:30:14That's the way it has to be.
00:30:15I've made up my mind.
00:30:17Perhaps together we might be able to unmake it, as it were.
00:30:21No, I feel real definite about it.
00:30:23I'm not accustomed to being discarded like an old shoe, Scarlet.
00:30:28It's nothing like that.
00:30:29You've no cause to feel anything like that.
00:30:31Perhaps I should decide what I have cause to feel.
00:30:33I just don't want you to make it something it's not.
00:30:35I just don't want to go on with it anymore, that's all.
00:30:38I'm trying to be a lady about it.
00:30:40I hope you'll be a gentleman.
00:30:41A lady?
00:30:42You?
00:30:42How very amusing.
00:30:46I'd appreciate it if you'd leave now.
00:30:49I'm asking you nicely.
00:30:52I so much prefer your not-so-nice aspect.
00:30:55Well, you can bet you've seen the last of that.
00:30:57Do you really think so?
00:30:58I sure do.
00:31:01Mightn't we, at the very least, enjoy, I might even say delighting,
00:31:04an appropriate farewell?
00:31:05That's what I'm making right now.
00:31:07Goodbye, Richard.
00:31:08But you haven't delighted me yet, darling.
00:31:09Let go.
00:31:10Nor are you.
00:31:11Now you'll be in course.
00:31:12I don't recall you ever before having voiced any complaints in that regard.
00:31:16No more than did your sweet, pretty little Irish Colleen.
00:31:19I'm gonna start hollering if you don't let go of me.
00:31:22You aren't listening, darling.
00:31:23Listen.
00:31:25Perhaps the only thing worse than having been made a fool of
00:31:27is discovering it to be so.
00:31:29Don't you agree?
00:31:30I don't know what you mean.
00:31:31Of course you don't.
00:31:34Shall I tell you what I mean?
00:31:36It must surely be time you knew what I meant.
00:31:39You're scaring me now.
00:31:41I want you to go.
00:31:42I want you to leave me alone.
00:31:44Please leave me alone.
00:31:45All in good time.
00:31:46Now, what was it we were discussing?
00:32:03Farewells.
00:32:04Ah, yes.
00:32:05Farewells.
00:32:06You might ask Mary Boyle how I bet her fond farewell.
00:32:09Oh, so terribly fond it was.
00:32:11I might even say memorably fond.
00:32:13I'm confusing you, aren't I, dearest Scarlet?
00:32:16Yes, of course I am.
00:32:18And I promised a moment ago to enlighten you, didn't I?
00:32:21A promise broken is a promise owed.
00:32:23The child she carries is mine.
00:32:26You piteous fool.
00:32:29You filthy, disgusting son of a bitch!
00:32:37I could kill you as soon as look at you!
00:32:40If you ever come within reach and distance to me again, I'll kill you!
00:32:57Get away!
00:33:00Get away!
00:33:02Get away from me!
00:33:04As for your dearly departed cousin, the good father Colum,
00:33:13the poor chap would be alive today
00:33:14had he not had the fatal temerity to meddle in my private affairs.
00:33:18What?
00:33:19What about Colum?
00:33:20I, this silly fellow, threatened to expose my liaison with dearest Mary to you.
00:33:24Don't you see?
00:33:25Well, I couldn't have that now, could I?
00:33:27Certainly not.
00:33:28What choice did I have?
00:33:29No, don't say you killed Colum.
00:33:32Please don't say you killed Colum.
00:33:34If you like.
00:33:35Mum's the word then.
00:33:36No!
00:33:43No!
00:33:44No!
00:33:45No!
00:33:46No!
00:33:47No!
00:33:48No!
00:33:50No!
00:33:51No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:53No!
00:33:54No!
00:33:55No!
00:34:21No!
00:34:21No!
00:34:23No!
00:34:24If you don't get out of this house, I'll call the police.
00:34:54I'll answer the consequences of that for you, my dear.
00:34:59I guess there's worse by way of consequences in this life.
00:35:05Get out.
00:35:08Get out! Get out! Get out! Get out!
00:35:14Get out! Get out! Get out!

00:38:42nobody knows

00:38:45and not so much as a
00:38:46murmur about her
00:38:47going to anyone
00:38:47I can't believe
00:38:50she'd just up and
00:38:51disappear without a
00:38:52word
00:38:52it's most curious
00:38:54I agree but
00:38:54there it is
00:38:56I guess
00:38:58someone else
00:38:59will have to
00:39:00take Kat back
00:39:01mom

00:42:03I don't remember
00:42:05exactly what did
00:42:06happen but I
00:42:06didn't kill him
00:42:07I'm sorry
00:42:07you say you don't
00:42:09remember
00:42:09no
00:42:10not altogether
00:42:12I don't quite
00:42:13understand
00:42:14I only remember
00:42:15up to when he
00:42:16violated me
00:42:18against my will
00:42:20and I remember
00:42:23well I sort of
00:42:24remember
00:42:25but it's kind of
00:42:26vague
00:42:26I think I recall
00:42:28getting up
00:42:28out of the bed
00:42:29and after that
00:42:31I don't know
00:42:31what happened
00:42:32until I came to
00:42:33laying on the floor
00:42:34and found him
00:42:35like that
00:42:35with a knife in him
00:42:36I see
00:42:37I'm no more
00:42:39capable of killing
00:42:40someone than
00:42:40well at least
00:42:44not Richard
00:42:45no matter what
00:42:47at least not
00:42:48Richard
00:42:48what do you mean
00:42:49by that
00:42:50I did take
00:42:51somebody's life
00:42:52once
00:42:53really
00:42:57I had good cause
00:42:59it was a Yankee
00:43:00soldier
00:43:01he was gonna
00:43:01rape me
00:43:02so I shot him
00:43:03it was during
00:43:05the war
00:43:06we were all
00:43:06of us
00:43:06practically
00:43:07loco
00:43:07I see
00:43:08it has nothing
00:43:09to do with
00:43:10this silly mess
00:43:11I'm in now
00:43:11I'm afraid
00:43:12this could be
00:43:13much more than
00:43:13just a silly mess
00:43:14Scarlett
00:43:15I didn't kill
00:43:16Richard
00:43:16does anyone

00:43:19happen to know
00:43:20of this previous
00:43:21incident
00:43:22no
00:43:23but I mentioned
00:43:26it to Richard
00:43:26once
00:43:27he's not exactly
00:43:29here to bandy it
00:43:30around is he
00:43:30unless of course
00:43:31he mentioned it
00:43:31to someone else
00:43:32what if he did
00:43:33if that person
00:43:34were to make
00:43:35the fact known
00:43:36to the crown
00:43:36and not unlikely
00:43:38eventuality in the
00:43:39circumstances
00:43:40if such a person
00:43:41exists
00:43:42it would show you
00:43:44to be capable
00:43:45of deadly violence
00:43:46and that could go
00:43:48very hard against you
00:43:49down again

00:45:41this

00:45:47to her
00:45:47Rhett
00:45:47what do you mean
00:45:52the fact is
00:45:54there's another
00:45:55astonishing aspect
00:45:58of this matter
00:45:59which Scarlett
00:46:00asked me not to mention
00:46:01she prefers to speak
00:46:03to you privately
00:46:04in regard
00:46:05to that
00:46:06you go on
00:46:15I didn't dream you'd come
00:46:43I prayed you would
00:46:46but I didn't let
00:46:46myself think it
00:46:47and you're just as
00:46:49damned incorrigible
00:46:50as you ever were
00:46:51Rhett
00:46:53oh Rhett
00:46:55Sal is here too
00:46:58I didn't do it
00:47:00I hope I didn't
00:47:01pass through your mind
00:47:02for one instant
00:47:03that I might have done it
00:47:04I know you didn't do it
00:47:05not that I'd put it
00:47:07past you
00:47:08did you come here
00:47:09to be a skunk
00:47:10Rapper
00:47:10they treat me all right
00:47:12what kind of a question
00:47:14is that
00:47:14this is a darn prison
00:47:15I thought it was
00:47:16real genteel country
00:47:18I gave that genteel
00:47:19or the war out there
00:47:20how much has John
00:47:23Moreland told you
00:47:24about as much
00:47:24you told him
00:47:25I guess
00:47:25except he said
00:47:27there was something
00:47:27you wanted to tell me
00:47:28yourself
00:47:29how come you're in
00:47:31England anyhow
00:47:32travel broadens the mind
00:47:34I guess it's getting
00:47:36broadened more than
00:47:37you expected
00:47:38I suppose you call me

00:49:52Scarlet sent her there
00:49:53when she was arrested
00:49:54considering the state
00:49:55she must have figured
00:49:56you'd be in
00:49:56when you found out
00:49:57I guess it might have
00:49:57been fair for her
00:49:58to think you might
00:49:58just up and take
00:49:59the little tie
00:49:59and sail away home
00:50:00with her
00:50:01well I might well
00:50:01yes
00:50:02I don't blame you
00:50:03for that thought
00:50:03but I know
00:50:03when you cool down
00:50:04you'll think better
00:50:05of that
00:50:05and count on it
00:50:06rats
00:50:07her cup's running
00:50:08over with trouble
00:50:09are you going to
00:50:10drown her into the
00:50:11bargain
00:50:11and you only
00:50:35learned the truth
00:50:36of this girl's child
00:50:38on the night
00:50:38of Lord Fenton's death
00:50:39Mrs. Butler
00:50:40yes that very night
00:50:41you hadn't the slightest
00:50:42suspicion before that time
00:50:44none whatsoever
00:50:45well Mary will tell you
00:50:46that if you can find her
00:50:47what I want to know
00:50:48is if you can find her
00:50:50well it's only fair
00:50:51to tell you Scarlet
00:50:52that in a city
00:50:53as vast as London
00:50:54or any other
00:50:55for that matter
00:50:56it will be almost impossible
00:50:58we can only hope
00:51:00that she'll come forward
00:51:00and make herself known
00:51:02well even if she did
00:51:03she wouldn't necessarily
00:51:04confess would she
00:51:05assuming that there's
00:51:07anything that she
00:51:08might confess
00:51:09now look here
00:51:10Mr. Randolph
00:51:11I'm not accusing
00:51:13Mary of anything
00:51:14and the last thing
00:51:15in the world
00:51:15I want to think
00:51:16is that she murdered
00:51:16someone
00:51:17but it's real hard
00:51:19not to draw conclusions
00:51:20from the way things are
00:51:21I'm arrested
00:51:22and Mary disappears
00:51:23fair speculation
00:51:25when you learned
00:51:27that Lord Fenton
00:51:28was the father
00:51:29of this girl's child
00:51:30how did you feel
00:51:31about that
00:51:32I could have chewed nails
00:51:33is what I felt
00:51:34what woman wouldn't
00:51:35have felt that way
00:51:36those women would have
00:51:38shot him on the spot
00:51:39I don't know
00:51:46I don't know
00:51:47I can't
00:51:55I can't
00:51:57I can't
00:51:58I can't
00:51:58I can't
00:51:59Lord Friton's murder.
00:52:13Long story.
00:52:15Get your paper here.
00:52:17Lord Friton's gruesome murder trial.
00:52:20Come on.
00:52:20Come on.
00:52:24Lord Friton's grisly murder.
00:52:30All of the dials in the paper.
00:52:51Is there anything I can get you, honey?
00:52:55Friton says you haven't eaten anything in two days.
00:52:58They're probably cooking up my last meal right this minute.
00:53:01Don't talk like that.
00:53:02I don't know him better than he ever come to England.
00:53:06I guess that's a whole pitcher of spilled milk, isn't it?
00:53:11I wish I was in Dixie.
00:53:14Hooray, hooray, Dixie.
00:53:16Scarlet, has there anything come back to you about that night?
00:53:27No.
00:53:29What's the matter anyhow?
00:53:31Do you think they'll believe me and call the whole thing off?
00:53:36Where do they have it, do you think?
00:53:38Have what?
00:53:39The gallows.
00:53:40I've never seen a gallows, have you?
00:53:46Is it outside?
00:53:48Have you seen it?
00:53:49No, and you're never going to either.
00:53:51Sally, I'm scared.
00:53:52I'm so scared.
00:53:54I'm so scared.
00:54:11We are standing in court.
00:54:14Put up Scarlet O'Hara Butler.
00:54:44The jurors for Our Lady of the Queen present that you, Scarlet O'Hara Butler,
00:54:57on the 10th day of November in the year of our Lord, 1876,
00:55:03did feloniously, willfully, and of your malice of forethought,
00:55:07kill and murder one Richard, Lord Fenton of Arbamarle.
00:55:10I'll say you, are you guilty or not guilty?
00:55:15Not guilty.
00:55:18Now, during your observation of the body of Lord Fenton,
00:55:23did you determine for yourself any probable cause of death, Inspector Wilcox?
00:55:27I observed three wounds.
00:55:30I reckon it was caused by a sharp instrument to the chest of the deceased
00:55:33in the general area of the heart,
00:55:36sufficient to cause death, I'd say fairly quick.
00:55:39Now, was there any evidence of this sharp instrument in the room?
00:55:43Oh, yes, it was lying right there on the floor, next to the bed.
00:55:46There's no question it was the weapon that done the deed.
00:55:49Ah, why not?
00:55:51It was covered with blood.
00:56:00Are you going to have Scarlet testify, John?
00:56:03I haven't yet made a decision as to that.
00:56:05How long do you think she should have a chance to tell her side of the story?
00:56:08Yes, but then she'd be questioned by the prosecution.
00:56:11Not altogether felicitous prospect, should Scarlet.
00:56:14Good Lord.
00:56:15What is it?
00:56:16What's the girl?
00:56:18The, the Boyle girl.
00:56:20Miss Boyle!
00:56:22Miss Boyle!
00:56:23Miss Boyle!
00:56:24Stop!

00:58:21She hasn't come round yet, I'm afraid. Are you a relative?
00:58:24No, a friend.
00:58:26Look, it's real important I speak to her.
00:58:29Can you give her something to bring her out of it?
00:58:31She has had rather a drubbing, you know.
00:58:33We might pop round tomorrow.
00:58:35Can you give us her name?
00:58:37It's Boyle, Mary Boyle.
00:58:39How soon can I speak to her?
00:58:41Drop by tomorrow.
00:58:43Meanwhile, I shall get home and get out of those wick clothes, who are you?
00:58:46Before you require some hospital treatment as well.
00:58:48Good night.
00:58:51You know, I think it might be best not to mention this episode to Scarlett as yet.
00:58:55Let's not get our hopes up prematurely.
00:58:57It may come to nothing.
00:58:59Cheer up, old boy.
00:59:01I'm not throwing in the towel quite yet.
00:59:04Did there come a time, Mrs. Boswell,
00:59:06when you began to believe that the prisoner's relationship with Lord Fenton
00:59:10was other than merely platonic?
00:59:14Other than what?
00:59:16Did you come to believe that their association was of an intimate nature?
00:59:20Oh, yes, I did that.
00:59:22Can you tell us why?
00:59:24After I seen him coming out of her bedroom in the dead of night.
00:59:28Though he didn't know I seen him.
00:59:30On how many occasions did you observe such a circumstance?
00:59:34Well, that circumstance was just the once.
00:59:37But I know there was numerous others.
00:59:40No further questions, my lord?
00:59:44No questions, my lord.
00:59:46You may step down.
00:59:48Call your next witness, Mr. Whitlock.
00:59:51Call Mr. Retch Butler.
00:59:54Call Mr. Retch Butler.
01:00:10So, your former wife never told you that she was carrying your child
01:00:15and that she ultimately gave birth to this child?
01:00:18No.
01:00:19Why did she not inform you of so momentous an event in the life of any man?
01:00:24No, she was angry with me, I guess.
01:00:26For what reason?
01:00:27Well, I decided it was time we parted company.
01:00:30She sure didn't agree.
01:00:31So, she denied you knowledge of the very existence of your only child because you had left her?
01:00:38Looks that way.
01:00:40Mr. Butler, wouldn't you call that a rather extreme and irrational response for a woman, a wife, to have as a result of a fit of pique?
01:00:50My lord, I do think this calls for a judgment which the witness is in no way qualified to render.
01:00:56Quite right.
01:00:58Mr. Butler, is it true that the prisoner consistently and over a considerable period of time
01:01:05represented to all and sundry that you were deceased and that she was a widow?
01:01:11Yes.
01:01:13She lied!
01:01:15Yes.
01:01:17Well, in order to dispel any, shall we say, curiosity in the minds of anyone here present today,
01:01:25is there any question whatsoever in your mind, Mr. Butler, that you are indeed the father of Mrs. Butler's child?
01:01:40None whatsoever, sir.
01:01:41Ah, here she is back with us.
01:01:56Good evening.
01:01:58Where am I then?
01:02:00You're in Bruton Hospital, my dear.
01:02:02Not where you intended, thank God.
01:02:04Oh, dear Jesus.
01:02:06I have not died.
01:02:07No.
01:02:08It's quite a miracle, in fact.
01:02:11Assuming you deliberately took a hater into the terms.
01:02:15You did, didn't you, you naughty girl?
01:02:17My bad heart?
01:02:19Remarkably little, in fact.
01:02:21But, I'm sorry to have to tell you, it was impossible to save your baby.
01:02:29The baby's gone.
01:02:31I'm afraid so.
01:02:33Oh, Mother of mercy be praised.
01:02:44I don't see why they had to put you up there anyhow.
01:02:46I was fit to be tired when John told me they were going to do that.
01:02:50Well, what better witness could they have to reflect on your character, Scarlet?
01:02:54Me and my bad character, I guess.
01:02:56They're trying to hang you.
01:02:58And all's fair in love and hanging, huh?
01:03:01Do you think I've got a bad character?
01:03:03I think you've got a bad habit of making decisions today
01:03:06without thinking about what they might bring about tomorrow.
01:03:08The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that if worse comes to worse,
01:03:13our baby will have you to take care of her.
01:03:18I've got something to tell you, Scarlet.
01:03:21It's about Mara Boyle.
01:03:23What about her?
01:03:27Mother, she'll be doing this quarter.
01:03:30You see?
01:03:31Mm-hmm.
01:03:32Hello, Mary.
01:03:48You tell me you're making an amazing recovery.
01:03:51I was glad to hear it.
01:03:52I was doing a lot of beating about the bush the other night
01:03:57because I didn't want to scare you.
01:04:01But you know what I was getting at, don't you?
01:04:14All things considered,
01:04:16there ain't a whole lot of doubt in anybody's mind about who it was
01:04:19that didn't this low-down Fenton fellow.
01:04:20In fact, I'd say there's no doubt at all.
01:04:23The question is, what you gonna do about it?
01:04:27What are you gonna do about it, Mary?
01:04:30Things are looking real bad for Scarlet.
01:04:35Folks around here just itching to string her up.
01:04:38She's gonna be hung for something she didn't do.
01:04:42I find it hard to believe that any decent person,
01:04:45decent, God-fearing girl like you could just stand by and let that happen.
01:04:58What Scarlet tells me about you,
01:05:01I find that real hard to believe.
01:05:03I find that real hard to believe.
01:05:05I find that real hard to believe.
01:05:09Oh, six minutes.
01:05:13Ah!
01:05:15Damn it!
01:05:17Damn it.
01:05:18Oh!
01:05:20Oh!
01:05:21Lady Victoria, did your brother ever have occasion to discuss with you his association with the
01:05:30prisoner? Yes. On one of these occasions did he make mention of an incident in her past which
01:05:37she had revealed to him? Yes. Could you tell us please the nature of that incident? I object
01:05:45my lord. This evidence is hearsay. She murdered a man. She shot him. I had to defend myself
01:05:54against his unspeakable intentions. It wasn't a murder. She's twisting it all around. Silence. Silence. Silence in court.
01:06:15Silence.
01:06:29Silence.
01:06:36Silence.
01:06:41Oh, my God.
01:07:11gone no one wasn't fought I assure you there was no reason whatsoever it is
01:07:16opposed to the world gone
01:07:31and then we began to hear the shouting mostly mrs. butler's you couldn't help
01:07:37but hear they were having the most dreadful row she went hurrying up the
01:07:41stairs and I could see that Lord Fenton had come out of the drawing-room did
01:07:45she speak to him at that time yes sir she stopped on the stairs and shouted at him
01:07:50well what did she shout if you remember I couldn't forget she said if ever you
01:07:57come near me again I will kill you I swear I will now when you reached the open
01:08:07bedroom door what did you observe mr. Roberts mrs. Butler was standing by the
01:08:12bed at the bedside and Lord Fenton was on the bed there was blood all over him was
01:08:20there anything else which you were able to observe mr. Roberts yes sir I saw the
01:08:25knife covered in blood
01:08:31I swear by Almighty God that the evidence given by me to this court shall be the
01:08:37truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me God
01:08:43in view of testimony heard earlier mrs. Butler did you in fact revealed Lord
01:08:55Fenton that you had once shot and killed a man an enemy soldier I told Lord Fenton that in
01:09:02confidence I didn't expect him to talk to anybody else about it what were the
01:09:07circumstances of that unfortunate incident he was going to assault me assault you in what
01:09:13manner in the worst manner a woman can be assaulted what was your response to Lord
01:09:20Fenton's refusal to leave your house following his atrocious assault on your
01:09:26person I was extremely angry angry enough to retaliate I retaliated as best I could I hit him
01:09:34I already said that angry enough to kill him no no mrs. Butler despite your lapse of memory
01:09:41on that evening to which you have testified do you believe yourself capable of having murdered Lord
01:09:49Fenton no I swear on my mother's grave I am not capable of having done that at which point you
01:09:57say you fired the pistol at this enemy soldier causing his death yes were there any witnesses
01:10:05to this violent episode mrs. Butler no I don't think so actually I don't recall why you don't recall it was a
01:10:15long time ago oh to be sure I suggest that the evening of Lord Fenton's death is not remotely so distant
01:10:23in time and yet you claim a failure of memory on that occasion as well between the moments when
01:10:30you were allegedly struck by Lord Fenton and the moment you allegedly discovered him to be dead that
01:10:36was different I hit my head when I fell I already said that so you did tell me mrs. Butler are these
01:10:45lapses in memory habitual episodes to which you were susceptible not as far as I know not as far as you
01:10:53know I take it you're uncertain no I'm not uncertain I suggest the statement not as far as I know suggests a
01:11:01degree of uncertainty mrs. Butler you're just trying to twist me up I know what I mean but I just can't
01:11:08explain it much as you are unable to explain the death of Lord Fenton in your bedchamber mrs. Butler if
01:11:14you forget something how can you know you forgot it that's what I mean and by that very admission how can you dare claim with any certainty whatsoever that while in this state of what shall we call it
01:11:28uh convenient amnesia you did not commit the crime of which you are accused I know it in my heart alas mrs. Butler where none of us here qualified to uh evaluate the reliability of your heart and most certainly not the innocence you claim for it you have already confessed here in this court openly to murder the Yankee was gonna rape me
01:11:54I had to protect myself there were plenty of women in those days didn't protect themselves and they paid the consequences they paid dearly
01:12:04what I did then has nothing to do with now I did threaten Lord Fenton yes but I didn't do what I threatened
01:12:13he did commit his vile assault on me he raped me and all I did was hit him and he struck me and the next thing
01:12:22I remember was waking up and finding him dead but I'm not the one who killed him I suggest
01:12:27that it was your hand and no other which took up a knife on that tragic night
01:12:32and struck not once but thrice into the heart of Richard Lord Fenton of Albemarle
01:12:38I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't I didn't you haven't had the slightest recollection Scarlett
01:12:51no no I'm trying to remember I've been trying but I can't I can't remember what happened
01:12:58It's all right, my dear. It's all right. Calm yourself.
01:13:00You don't really believe me, do you? You don't think I'm innocent.
01:13:03You wanted to come back to me so as I remember it was me who did it.
01:13:06Isn't that what you want?
01:13:07Nothing of the sort.
01:13:08Well, I can't! I can't remember what happened!
01:13:23Have you agreed upon a verdict, gentlemen?
01:13:27We have.
01:13:28Do you find the prisoner guilty or not guilty
01:13:31of the murder of Lord Fenton of Arbamal?
01:13:34Guilty.
01:13:49Scarlet O'Hara Butler,
01:13:51you have been found guilty of willful murder.
01:13:55Have you anything to say
01:13:57why the court should not pronounce sentence upon you?
01:14:00I'm not guilty.
01:14:03I didn't do it. I'm innocent. I swear I am.
01:14:08Prisoner at the bar,
01:14:09the jury has convicted you of the dreadful crime laid to your charge.
01:14:15The sentence of the law is
01:14:17that you'll be taken from hence
01:14:19to the place from whence you came
01:14:21and from there
01:14:22to a place of execution
01:14:24and there you'll be hanged by the neck
01:14:27until you are dead.
01:14:28I believe I must have gone mad for abuse.
01:14:36It just came on me all of a sudden, like...
01:14:43I believe I must have gone mad for abuse.
01:14:54It just came on me all of a sudden, like...
01:14:56you never told dele, you never told me...
01:15:18I believe it is.
01:15:18I believe it is also a murder.
01:15:20It's already was in the place,
01:15:21Let's go.
01:15:51I've done it for all the evil that was in him.
01:16:02I've done it for all the evil.
01:16:11I want to thank you again, Mary.
01:16:13From the bottom of my heart for coming out with it.
01:16:17In the end, I couldn't do other.
01:16:19Well, to hang me, do you think?
01:16:21We're going to try like the devil to stop that from happening, honey.
01:16:24And you'll have the best lawyers in town.
01:16:26Sir John's going to stand for you.
01:16:29But I have no money to pay.
01:16:31Don't worry about that.
01:16:33And I'll be back to testify for you.
01:16:36You're leaving this terrible city then?
01:16:38I don't blame you.
01:16:40Are you going back to Ireland?
01:16:43Back to Ireland, yes.
01:16:44And my husband's coming with me.
01:16:52It's time I met the acquaintance of my daughter.
01:16:54Welcome to Ballyhera.
01:17:12What do you think?
01:17:13I'd say your tastes have improved considerably, Scarlet.
01:17:16You might be surprised at some of my improvements.
01:17:19Come and meet your daughter.
01:17:21She'll be sleeping.
01:17:23She's even more beautiful asleep than she is awake.
01:17:25And that's seeing something.
01:17:26Come and meet her.
01:17:39Mama!
01:18:03Say hello to your daddy, darling.
01:18:09I don't have a daddy.
01:18:14Well, you do now.
01:18:16I'm not sure how to take that.
01:18:18Say something less suspicious.
01:18:23I'm not sure how to take that.
01:18:25I'm not sure how to take that.
01:18:28I'm not sure how to take that.
01:18:30Say something less suspicious.
01:19:04I'm not sure how to take that.
01:19:08I'm not sure what to take that back.
01:19:12It's not my real brains.
01:19:14That's a lot better.
01:19:20You've been more decent to me than I had any right to expect, Red.
01:19:25I hope you know I'm fully aware of that.
01:19:28I wouldn't have blamed you if you'd never spoken to me again after you found out about Kat.
01:19:32Well, I considered it.
01:19:38I guess we've got to figure out what you do now, don't we?
01:19:42Yes.
01:19:44About our daughter.
01:19:46Yes.
01:19:50What are we going to do?
01:19:53I don't know about you, Scarlet, but I'm going to get me some sleep.
01:19:57Could I trouble you to point me to her bedroom?
01:20:05Uh-uh, Scarlet. Not a chance.
01:20:08It's not what you're thinking. You're being a donkey's hind end.
01:20:16You see what I mean?
01:20:19Now, what in God's name is that?
01:20:22I'd say it was the world's biggest pet, I guess.
01:20:25You wouldn't know a little bitty thing like me was even in it.
01:20:29You'd have to holler to even talk to me, which I have utterly no expectation of your doing.
01:20:34I promise to be good.
01:20:38You're asleep?
01:20:39No.
01:20:40You're going to sleep?
01:20:41No.
01:20:42You're going to sleep?
01:20:43No.
01:20:44You're going to sleep?
01:20:45Yes.
01:20:46Yes.
01:20:47Yes.
01:20:48Yes.
01:20:49Yes.
01:20:50Yes.
01:20:51I promise to be good.
01:21:00You're asleep?
01:21:03No.
01:21:06Going to sleep?
01:21:10Yes.
01:21:18All right.
01:21:21Good night.
01:21:22Good night.
01:21:23Good night.
01:21:24Good night.
01:21:26Good night.
01:21:30How are you like in Ireland so far, sir?
01:21:52You just call me red.
01:21:55It's a fine country, Brighton.
01:21:57It is bright, isn't it?
01:21:58It is.
01:22:00There's loads of us to know, isn't there?
01:22:01But you'll sort it out in time.
01:22:05What a fortunate man you are, sir, to have an angel for a daughter and a saint for a wife.
01:22:10You could have knocked me down with a feather when we heard the shocking news of Mary Boyle.
01:22:34It is a tragedy.
01:22:36None to blame for it but herself, however.
01:22:38True enough.
01:22:40Scarlet was saying she and himself would be going over to England to give the poor girl whatever assistance they can when her time comes.
01:22:47Bless her heart.
01:22:47Ain't he criminal, Hanson, though?
01:22:58He is that.
01:22:59Looks to be plenty of life left in him, yet?
01:23:05And I suppose Scarlet will know best about that.
01:23:07Save you, O'Donnell, said the white, gray beggar man.
01:23:19And you likewise, said O'Donnell.
01:23:21Now, whence come you, and what is your craft?
01:23:25I come from the outermost shores of the earth, from the glens where the white swans glide.
01:23:32A night in L.A., a night in man, and a night on a cold, cold, cold inside.
01:23:41What are we going to do, Red?
01:23:55What about you and me?
01:23:59About her.
01:24:01About you and me and her.
01:24:05She ought to have both of us back.
01:24:07That's generally the best way.
01:24:10The only way it'd be is if you could ever.
01:24:15Ever what?
01:24:18Love me again.
01:24:22Less cream.
01:24:25What makes you think I ever stopped?
01:24:33Well, how about you divorcing me and marrying somebody else?
01:24:35Maybe that might have put the idea in my mind.
01:24:38It was never a question for me of loving you, Scarlet.
01:24:42It was a question of living with, loving you.
01:24:44Maybe I could make that part easier.
01:24:48I'd sure like to try.
01:24:52How about you?
01:24:53Would you like to try, maybe?
01:24:55I'd put you to get real slow and easy.
01:25:01Well, don't go do me any big favors, Red Butler.
01:25:05You may think you're God's gift to women,
01:25:06but I'm not exactly over the hill yet.
01:25:08There are plenty of men who can jump at the Chancellor.
01:25:09I don't know.
01:25:21I can't just go do me any big favors, but I can't just go do you.
01:25:22I can't just go do me any big favors.
01:25:27Sure.
01:25:28You once said heaven help the man who really loves me, do you remember?
01:25:36Heaven help me.
01:25:58Where?
01:26:10Lord, how I've missed you.
01:26:18You tell me the truth.
01:26:21You really loved me with your whole heart, and you just want me because you couldn't have me.
01:26:26By a red button, what a nasty thing to say.
01:26:32I do love you with all my heart, and I will forever.
01:26:42I'd say we've been real nice to each other this past week, wouldn't you say so?
01:26:46I'd have to agree. In fact, it's a downright pleasure to agree.
01:26:50You've changed, Scarlet.
01:26:52You think so?
01:26:53Mm-hmm. I think maybe you've grown up. I'll have to get to know you all over again.
01:26:57That might not be an altogether unpleasant experience for you.
01:27:00I have no doubt you'll make it a very interesting one.
01:27:02Better than interesting.
01:27:04I'll do better this time, I promise.
01:27:06You'll probably wear me out.
01:27:07You'll probably wear me out.
01:27:08I'm sure you'll manage us fine.
01:27:13Now, what are we going to do about our little difficulty?
01:27:15Which one?
01:27:16The geography one.
01:27:17You in Charleston, me in Ireland.
01:27:19You had any thoughts about that?
01:27:21Only one that makes any sense.
01:27:23I'm listening.
01:27:24Compromise?
01:27:25I'm listening.
01:27:26Compromise?
01:27:28In my experience, every time somebody suggests what they call a compromise,
01:27:32it generally turns out to be something favoring them.
01:27:34Not this time.
01:27:36All right, let's hear it.
01:27:37I'll give up Charleston.
01:27:39If you'll give up Ireland.
01:27:41For where else?
01:27:42We belong together, Scarlet.
01:27:44And the world is where we belong.
01:27:46All of it.
01:27:47We can go anywhere.
01:27:49As long as we're together, the world will belong to us.
01:27:51That's a lot of property.
01:28:12We belong together.
01:28:22There is blind.
01:28:24And what we're doing is we're good.
01:28:25We belong together, the worlds Ö
01:28:30And what, Try to reach in the background institutions and putuin on to be?"
01:28:32THE END
01:29:02THE END
01:29:32THE END
