00:01:36What makes a monster? You may well wonder. My father taught me that only after our death will we know what we are. What we have chosen to be. Angel or demon? Creature of light? Or monster clothed in human flesh?
00:01:55He said I could choose. That I had a choice. He told me it's an easy journey between this life and the next. He told me he loved me. He told me many lies.

00:02:29Downstairs after upstairs, Mrs. Rusk.
00:02:51The gentlemen are in the drawing room, miss.
00:02:55The silver service, I think, not the china.
00:02:59The gentlemen are waiting.
00:03:04Thank you, Rusk.
00:03:05I'd like the silver service instead, if you please.
00:03:12Miss Marge!
00:03:29I must, for a moment, speak not of your father's recent death, but of his judgment.
00:03:38Your uncle is hardly a fit pastor, charge of an impressionable young girl.
00:03:42He's my nearest relation, sir, therefore eminently fit.
00:03:45You've never met him, I think.
00:03:47I look forward eminently to that happy event.
00:03:50Your uncle, Silas, was a most expensive, vicious young man.
00:03:57A friend, was he not, of your late father?
00:03:59An acquaintance, rather.
00:04:03Married beneath himself, though to do him justice, I believe he only intended to ruin her.
00:04:07I fail to see why youthful Miss Allianz bears upon my uncle's present fitness as guardian.
00:04:13May I be blunt?
00:04:14Certainly.
00:04:15Your trustees would be remiss in our duties, should we fail to take into account and consider the implications of the historic...
00:04:25You propose to be blunt, Doctor.
00:04:28Suspicion of murder committed by your uncle.
00:04:31My uncle was exculpated by the inquest.
00:04:35That gambler took his own life.
00:04:37Perhaps you'd care to view the suicide room, Captain, in your new capacity as trustee.
00:04:42Another time.
00:04:43Possibly.
00:04:45Miss Ruthen, what I mean to say is that your trustees are amenable if you would care to mount a challenge.
00:04:53You may remain trustees of my property.
00:04:56My person is none of your concern but that of my uncle.
00:05:00That is what you kindly offer.
00:05:02To assume the additional burden and the allowance which accompanies it and have me elect you as guardian.
00:05:08Rather than my own flesh and blood.
00:05:12I will not challenge the will.
00:05:15Or my father's choice of guardian.
00:05:19You will not, I'm sure, wish to travel home in the dark.
00:05:25You need some rest and some feeding up.
00:05:33Good day to you, Doctor.
00:05:34Good day.
00:05:35Good day.
00:05:35Good day.
00:05:36Good day.
00:05:36Good day.
00:05:37Good day.
00:05:37Good day.
00:05:38Good day.
00:05:38Good day.
00:05:39My father was what is called an oddity.
00:05:43There's no shame in that?
00:05:44I'm not ashamed.
00:05:46The appointment of my uncle was made not despite but because my father was deeply, bitterly conscious of his brother's disgrace.
00:05:55A mild word for suspected murder.
00:05:57Goodbye, Captain.
00:06:08I trust you have discharged your duty by casting an eye over the place to see you by riding past.
00:06:15You may go.
00:06:44I'll serve myself this evening.
00:06:53I'll serve myself this evening.
00:06:58Good day.
00:07:02Good day.
00:07:15Good day.
00:07:20Oh, my goodness.
00:07:20Leave that route.
00:07:21Take this, sir.
00:07:22I think it's that, dear cousin.
00:07:44My dear cousin.
00:07:46My dear cousin Maud.
00:07:47I am so out of breath, so delighted, so fatigued after a dreadful journey.
00:07:55You can't imagine how I've been longing to meet you.
00:07:57My father's been shown to his room, my brother about the place somewhere, the stables I expect.
00:08:05What good friends we shall be.
00:08:09Would you care to take a turn about the garden?
00:08:12Or perhaps you're too fatigued after your dreadful journey?
00:08:17What a barracks of a place it is.
00:08:26What a barracks of a place it is.
00:08:39I shouldn't wonder your longing to get out of it.
00:08:44I shall never leave Noel.
00:08:52I put you in the room next but one to mine.
00:08:54You have a lovely room.
00:09:00Splendid.
00:09:02Only one leg at the stables.
00:09:03Room for a string of hunters, I should say.
00:09:04So don't rush your fences, boy.
00:09:05Uncle.

00:17:42it doesn't matter

00:18:01touch of neuralgia
00:18:04my father was similarly afflicted
00:18:06may i be of some service to my beloved niece
00:18:12emily's governess
00:18:15yes
00:18:16you don't wish for me to obey her
00:18:20only to be polite

00:18:27i am to understand that you are
00:18:28yes
00:18:29my dear brother has appointed me to act

00:18:35wield my authority
00:18:37without cause
00:18:43nor i
00:18:45when the authority becomes mine
00:18:49how i will enjoy introducing you to society
00:18:53and reintroducing myself
00:18:55you think i regret my seclusion
00:18:58assure you i do not
00:19:00to
00:19:01revisit the continent with you by my side
00:19:04a climbing holiday perhaps
00:19:06i was just your age when your father and i first went
00:19:09when he first took you mountaineering
00:19:13his youthful passion i understand
00:19:15i'm afraid i don't share it
00:19:20well not having tried it
00:19:22naturally one couldn't consider such a thing while in mourning
00:19:26or even half mourning
00:19:33on that subject
00:19:35might i inquire
00:19:37as to whether madame being a french woman and therefore clever with her needle might
00:19:41sew me a new dress
00:19:44in the style which meets your approval
00:19:46should you present your request with sufficient charm
00:19:50i may drop a hint
00:19:52a measure of docility
00:19:54i'm sure madame might teach you to wield your own needle
00:19:58a much better scheme
00:20:03don't be vexed
00:20:07may i be of any service uncle
00:20:09oh how gracious no but i shan't trouble you with small matters of business
00:20:14anything else
00:20:17no
00:20:19do shut the door
00:20:39does family history interest you
00:20:53oh yes
00:20:56indeed it does
00:21:00i had no idea
00:21:09when they broke open the door
00:21:29they found him
00:21:31half out of bed
00:21:32his head hanging down and his throat
00:21:35cut by his own hand
00:21:38how horrid
00:21:40they scrubbed and scrubbed
00:21:44did your father not tell you all this
00:21:47no
00:21:49mine did
00:21:52perhaps he didn't mind discussing it
00:21:55there's no suspicion attached to him
00:21:56it seems
00:21:59most unfair
00:22:01my father shun but not yours
00:22:03my father's reputation was ever unsullied
00:22:06however unfair and unmerited i'm afraid the same cannot be said for yours
00:22:11you concede his ill reputation unmerited
00:22:15then why should my father bear all the notoriety
00:22:17i'll mention to my uncle you've been asking shall i no don't
00:22:29am i supposed to find you amusing
00:22:33confess i frightened you confess
00:22:38confess
00:22:38i don't think that's what's going to happen
00:22:57makes no sense at all
00:23:00if the door was locked from the inside then no suspicion could attach to anyone
00:23:04you
00:23:27there's no need to skulk my dear one of your trustees has come to see how you're getting on
00:23:34so

00:24:04she is very striking isn't she no one can hardly wonder about my brother already being so
00:24:12fascinated by her
00:24:15their acquaintance is but recent i understood
00:24:19my brother did not trouble to extend his hospitality even to his nearest and dearest i'm
00:24:24i'm afraid but we have overcome the deficit as you see

00:25:25you are a prize you know

00:25:42for my property i am to presume
00:25:49indeed
00:25:51of course for your property
00:25:53please consider myself entirely at your disposal
00:26:14the good captain would find an air rest very convenient
00:26:18the good captain thinks more of his wine his horse and the folds in his cravat than he
00:26:23does of me
00:26:26and so you may tell my uncle should he inquire
00:26:53the good captain
00:26:55the good captain's
00:27:21Charming girl such as yourself to me continually, as we do without a liking, growing on one side or another.
00:27:30I suppose I need to pretend to be violently in love.
00:27:33Please don't.
00:27:35Sensible girl.
00:27:36Governor will see to it. We needn't go into the particular...
00:27:38Please don't continue.
00:27:41Beg pardon?
00:27:46Am I to suppose you formed an attachment for me?
00:27:50Mm-hmm.
00:27:51A sincere attachment.
00:28:00Most sincere.
00:28:05You do me too much honour, sir.
00:28:08Desha!
00:28:10If you require some lovemaking, then I'm your man.
00:28:12Have the goodness to let me pass!
00:28:14Does that hurt?
00:28:26You do me too.
00:28:28Don't hide.
00:28:30You will excuse me.
00:29:00You will excuse the intrusion.
00:29:04I have hitherto spoken to you as a friend,
00:29:07but I have not forgotten, if you have,
00:29:10that my authority as guardian gives me the right to question your conduct.
00:29:16Have I been rightly informed that you contemptuously rejected the hand of my son?
00:29:21I rejected it, certainly,
00:29:24with no more contempt than the question was put to me.
00:29:30He is unpolished, I concede.
00:29:34But under your tutelage he will improve.
00:29:38Really, my dear, think of the advantages.
00:29:41Marry Edward, remain at Knoll.
00:29:44What could be better than taking your own blood to wed?
00:29:47Better, surely, not to marry a man for whom I have no regard.
00:29:52Your fancy lies elsewhere, does it?
00:29:54Not, I trust, in the direction of a certain captain,
00:29:57who makes nothing by his profession and everything by his trusteeship.
00:30:00No, sir.
00:30:04Wise girl.
00:30:06You have something of the look of your poor mother.
00:30:25I'm afraid I don't remember her.
00:30:27No?
00:30:29Delicate girl.
00:30:34Sad.
00:30:38My son's impetuousness has taken you by surprise.
00:30:40You were quite right to take time to reflect.
00:30:42I require no further...
00:30:44I yield, my dear.
00:30:46I shall not press you.
00:30:47You shall have time, your own time, to think.
00:30:51I will accept no answer now.
00:30:53No, sir.
00:30:54No, sir.
00:30:55No, sir.
00:30:56No, sir.
00:30:57No, sir.
00:30:58No, sir.
00:30:59No, sir.
00:31:00No, sir.
00:31:01No, sir.
00:31:02No, sir.
00:31:03No, sir.
00:31:04No, sir.
00:31:06No, sir.
00:31:07No, sir.
00:31:08No, sir.
00:31:09No, sir.
00:31:10No, sir.
00:31:11No, sir.
00:31:12No, sir.
00:31:13No, sir.
00:31:14No, sir.
00:31:15No, sir.
00:31:16No, sir.
00:31:17No, sir.
00:31:18No, sir.
00:31:19No, sir.
00:31:20No, sir.
00:31:21No, sir.
00:31:22No, sir.
00:31:53Oh!
00:31:55Oh!
00:31:56Oh!
00:31:57Oh!
00:31:58Oh!
00:32:05Hurry up.
00:32:06You'll let it get cold.
00:32:08A tribute to your bourgeoisie, my dear.
00:32:23Your phlegmatic cousin prefers business to romance,
00:32:30and will find the arrival of bailiffs more compelling than your posy.
00:32:34It is quite impossible.
00:32:36I shall speak to my trustees.
00:32:38This matter, to my regret, does not concern you or your property, but rather my own.
00:32:44There will be no bailiffs at Knoll.
00:32:50Your creditors have caught wind of the fee compensating you for my guardianship.
00:32:57Ready money is not something I have frequently been troubled with.
00:33:01Perhaps I might communicate with my trustees about releasing some funds.
00:33:14What unwanted generosity.
00:33:18If you'd care to, Uncle.
00:33:19I'm on tenterhooks.
00:33:39Tell me, how do you propose to inveigle your trustees into settling my paltry affairs?
00:33:47I propose to tell them it's a small price to pay for securing your departure from Knoll.
00:33:54And that of my cousins.
00:34:09And if I decline your so generous offer?
00:34:16Then I regret very much that bailiffs will indeed arrive at Knoll.
00:34:28And I will make sure they understand what is mine,
00:34:32and therefore untouchable.
00:34:35And what is yours,
00:34:36and therefore a fair game.
00:34:59I don't mind waiting a bit.
00:35:01I'm in no rush to have a wife on my back.
00:35:03Oh, very obliging of you.
00:35:07I'm no hand at play-acting.
00:35:11I assure you, I never had the least expectation of a poor Chevalier charging up to carry me on.
00:35:16Surely you want someone.
00:35:20Someone of your own, someone to come after you.
00:35:22I needn't trouble you much.
00:35:23I was just in the midst of declining your son's proposal, which he has been so obliging us to repeat.
00:35:33Or shall I carry on, or may we take it as word?
00:35:37My dear young lady, I have watched you. Indeed we have all watched you.
00:35:42Without one word of discouragement, permit my son's most marked attentions to you.
00:35:47There have been no attentions to speak of. I have sought no attentions.
00:35:51You know as well as I. Withheld words are powerful allurements.
00:35:56Allurements are not something I have ever been accused of wielding.
00:36:00However, to be on the safe side, uncle, I will henceforth extend nothing but coldness and discouragement towards my cousin, your son.
00:36:07You are excused.
00:36:17Pray excuse me.
00:36:26There is something you should know.
00:36:37We once made a bargain, my brother and I.
00:36:58He paid to clean up your mess when that gamester took the coward's way out and put an end to himself.
00:37:03Ah.
00:37:05You played too deep, all of you.
00:37:08That is true, at least.
00:37:09He lost more than he could pay.
00:37:11Less true. False, actually.
00:37:13The loss was mine.
00:37:15Yeah, but then you won again what you'd lost and more besides.
00:37:19No. I lost everything I had and more besides.
00:37:28Your father staked me.
00:37:30The money I had to lose was his.
00:37:33You know the whole of his fortune, the whole of this house certainly.
00:37:36That can't possibly be true.
00:37:38Well luckily, that other eventuality transpired.
00:37:43I don't understand.
00:37:54I think you do.
00:37:59That is a foul implication.
00:38:00I imply nothing.
00:38:01I tell you plainly, your father took the steps required to preserve his fortune.
00:38:07What steps? The door was locked from the inside.
00:38:10Which your father promised me we could rely upon at the inquest and happily he proved correct.
00:38:15You lie. You're a liar.
00:38:16I speak truth, unaccustomed as you are to hearing it.
00:38:27Uncle.
00:38:31If murder was committed at Knoll,
00:38:38it was not by my father that.
00:38:40What was that?
00:38:43He was always the better climber.
00:38:48The taint of suspicion was to be mine.
00:38:51Mine alone.
00:38:53As one day so would we know.
00:38:57That was the bargain.
00:38:58I'm afraid I didn't bank on him at his age acquiring a wife and heir.
00:39:10He did what he could for you.
00:39:12He made me your ward to prove to the world his great confidence in your innocence and honour.
00:39:19I am.
00:39:21How grateful I am to my honourable brother and guardianship of you.
00:39:26Though the trust with which he placed you wholly within my power restores my reputation.
00:39:35Though sadly not my expected inheritance.
00:39:50Excuse me miss.
00:39:58Excuse me miss.
00:40:13If mademoiselle has any petite commissions madame will be charmed to undertake them.
00:40:17No thank you.
00:40:19Ah Monsieur Roudin prefers that madame attend to mademoiselle's petite affaires.
00:40:24That won't at all be necessary.
00:40:26Monsieur thinks otherwise.
00:40:28You mustn't trouble yourself to go out.
00:40:39Jet buttons.
00:40:41I require a set of jet buttons.
00:40:44Keep your pennies.
00:40:45Your uncle graciously provides.
00:40:52Thank you uncle.
00:41:04Tea.
00:41:05Brandy.
00:41:15翼.
00:41:16Tea.
00:41:21No.
00:41:23No.
00:41:24No.
00:41:32I have to go out.
00:41:34No.
00:41:36No.
00:41:37No.
00:41:39No.
00:41:40Unhand me, Uncle.
00:41:57You're hurting me.
00:41:58You wouldn't, says one man of experience to another.
00:42:02Buy a pig and a pig.
00:42:03Unhand me, I say!
00:42:05I realise she isn't exactly what you like.
00:42:08Waist none too small.
00:42:09Bosom negligible, still child-bearing hips.
00:42:13Great fine eyes and a pretty little foot and ankle.
00:42:17No!
00:42:34Come in.
00:42:39Oh, don't.
00:42:40It's lovely.
00:42:41We could be sisters.
00:42:45It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:47It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:49It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:50It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:51It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:55It is enough that we are cousins.
00:42:56It is enough that we are cousins.
00:43:01It is enough that we are cousins.
00:43:05What is it?
00:43:35Edward?
00:43:56I'll accept your apology in the morning.
00:44:00Now get out.
00:44:05Get out of my room!
00:44:20Get out of my room!
00:44:22Get out of my room!
00:44:25Get out of my room!
00:44:32What?
00:44:34You will be best not to resist.
00:44:49Or pretend to resist.
00:45:04No!
00:45:05No!
00:45:06No!
00:45:07No!
00:45:08No!
00:45:09No!
00:45:10No!
00:45:11No!
00:45:12No!
00:45:13Edward!
00:45:14Edward!
00:45:15Edward!
00:45:16Look at me!
00:45:17Don't do this!
00:45:19Don't do this!
00:45:22Don't do that!
00:45:24Edward!
00:45:26No!
00:45:27No!
00:45:28No!
00:45:32Ah!
00:45:34Ah!
00:46:02Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.
00:46:32Oh, my God, oh, my God.
00:47:02Coffee, please, Rusk.
00:47:33I trust you slept well, Uncle.
00:47:38Moderately well, niece.
00:47:40And yourself?
00:47:46Immoderately poorly, as I'm sure you're aware.
00:47:49But then I'm hardly alone in that.
00:48:04But I must thank you all for your kind concern.
00:48:07I do think you've been a little cruel, my dear.
00:48:22If there has been an excess of gallantry, you only have yourself to blame.
00:48:29My charms, I make no doubt, near as numberless as the quantity of pounds lodged in my bank account.
00:48:35I cannot conceive why you are so intractable.
00:48:40I should rather consider myself lucky your son deigns to rape me.
00:48:44My decision is unalterable.
00:48:56I will not marry your son.
00:49:03Well, I'm afraid no respectable man will take a soiled article to his bed and board.
00:49:08I find myself not much disposed towards marriage, Uncle.
00:49:11What is it you want?
00:49:14That little heart of yours.
00:49:20Do you think it's so little?
00:49:24My heart.
00:49:25You're mistaken.
00:49:29You're mistaken.
00:49:55Sauté, please.
00:50:06With peas à la française.
00:50:08Yes, ma's.
00:50:25A fair shall stay there, Boats.
00:50:31Say to them, then.
00:50:33Yes, ma's.
00:50:38A carriage, please, Rusk.
00:50:40No, ma's.
00:50:41I require the carriage, please, Rusk.
00:50:43If necessary, I'll drive it myself.
00:50:45I'm sorry, ma's.
00:50:48The master said no, ma's.
00:50:50I am your mistress.
00:50:55Get down.
00:50:58No.
00:50:59You'll hurt yourself.
00:51:00Come on.
00:51:00Go.
00:51:01Go.
00:51:02Let me lift you down.
00:51:02Get your hands off me.
00:51:04Step back.
00:51:10Mary Prince, I need you to post a letter.
00:51:12Miss, I can't lose my place.
00:51:15No, they will lose their places.
00:51:21I'm sorry I asked.
00:51:22I won't again.
00:51:37Ilvery.
00:51:40Ilvery!
00:51:43Ilvery!
00:51:45Ilvery!
00:51:48Captain!
00:51:49Captain, wait!
00:51:50Mama, will you be my host?
00:52:12Mama, say you love me, baby.
00:52:17Mama, watch me as I grieve.
00:52:24Mama, sing me back to sleep.
00:52:33Mama, sing me back to sleep.
00:52:33Athena, sang me back to sleep.
00:52:35Mama, say you 교ribful my needs.
00:52:37Mama, say you love me, baby.
00:52:38Stop, I will be my ixed.
00:52:40Mama, say you love me, baby.
00:52:42Anthony, sang me back to sleep.
00:52:44Leave me alone.
00:52:45I know you some things.
00:52:57I know you either.
00:52:59Very sorry, miss.
00:53:00Oh, yes.
00:53:01I don't know you anymore.
00:53:02Doctor.
00:53:11Doctor.
00:53:28Miss Rothern, do come in.
00:53:32How would you say you've been feeling, Miss Rothern?
00:53:57A tad confined, I would say.
00:54:02Thank you, Doctor Briley.
00:54:06And yourself?
00:54:09Concerned, dear, that you've been unwell?
00:54:12I've not been unwell, you've been misinformed.
00:54:17We shall soon have you put right. Do not agitate yourself.
00:54:20I'm not at all agitate.
00:54:22You're to remain perfectly quiet.
00:54:24Your nerves appear to be more shaking than you know.
00:54:27I'm fortunate, then, to have at least one of my trustees to look after me.
00:54:32You may relieve yourself of that worry I have today spoken to my fellow trustee, as the
00:54:37consent of both of us is required to secure the funds to ward off the bailiffs.
00:54:41Be so good as to explain yourself.
00:54:46The timber requires thinning.
00:54:48No such thing.
00:54:50Doctor.
00:54:51A word?
00:54:52Leave it with me.
00:54:53Whatever he's paying you, I will match it.
00:54:54Double it.
00:54:55You have three years until your majority.
00:54:56In that time, you will be brought to understand, indeed, agree with your uncle's point of view.
00:54:59And Captain Ilbury, does he share your opinion? Or, more accurately, your doubtless fat fee?
00:55:16Do not agitate yourself so, you will be...
00:55:19We may take it, then, that he does.
00:55:21You're hysterical, and will find yourself committed for treatment.
00:55:26I am perfectly sane, and you know it.
00:55:30In certain nervous states, intemperance of language indicates a likely progression to violence of action, to self-destruction, even.
00:55:40The treatment generally involves a degree of restraint more or less disagreeable depending on the patient.
00:55:46Hmm.
00:55:47Say it's a hardened case. Even the most hardened cases respond to cold water treatment.
00:55:53The simplest thing in the world. A sort of shower bath. Tiled room, efficient drain, a chair.
00:56:00Leather restraints. Iron has a tendency to rust. Water tank overhead fitted to a powerful pump.
00:56:06Thirty minutes for the most obdurate cases. Something between ten and thirteen tons of water in that time.
00:56:13Tons?
00:56:14Ten tons of cold water. Shoot down the head of the girl.
00:56:18I beg your pardon, the patient.
00:56:20No, you are correct. Irregular vibrations of the nerves are the almost exclusive liability of the fairer sex.
00:56:27Due to the peculiarities of the female constitution.
00:56:32One can hardly imagine what it's like for the poor girl.
00:56:35There is a viewing platform, if you'd care for a visitor's ticket.
00:56:46Please. I cannot stop you.
00:56:48I can't sleep.
00:57:16I couldn't sleep.
00:57:23Nor I. We are on rapport, it seems.
00:57:31Might I suggest some cooper?
00:57:35Or perhaps Radcliffe would be more to your taste.
00:57:37No less bucolic.
00:57:38I'll eat the candle, will I?
00:57:42Make a candle, will I?
00:57:52No!
00:57:57No!
00:57:58No!
00:58:03Let's get you back to bed, miss.
00:58:24No, just lace me up tightly.
00:58:33I can see you're a great deal under the weather today.
00:58:47Period of seclusion, nourishing food, rest, and no reading.
00:58:55Or drawing.
00:58:59Your uncle wonders whether you keep a diary.
00:59:03I'm afraid I do not.
00:59:05Would you recommend I commence?
00:59:11Stand.
00:59:15Thank you, I prefer to sit.
00:59:20Stand, or I will have Mr. and Mrs. Rusk lift you to your feet.
00:59:33You would be the better for the tree load.
01:00:02You're an intelligent girl.
01:00:11Indeed, as I recall from our meeting not long ago, you take inordinate pride in your intelligence.
01:00:17Perhaps I overestimated my abilities.
01:00:20Perhaps when you offered to overturn my father's will.
01:00:23Oh, I did no such thing.
01:00:25Then did you not?
01:00:26Well, perhaps Ilbury will recollect.
01:00:27Shall we send for him?
01:00:29Ilbury?
01:00:30Ilbury will do as he is told.
01:00:32He may expect no help in that regard.
01:00:33Bonjour, doctor.
01:00:35Do you require some assistance?
01:00:38Mr. Rutin would not wish to add to any trauma Mademoiselle might be imagining.
01:00:45What's his difficulty?
01:01:05It's so unnecessary.
01:01:08It would make your situation worse than it need be.
01:01:15Submit.
01:01:16You need two doctors to commit me.
01:01:22Do you know what the medical profession prescribes as a surefire cure for hysteria?
01:01:28Sexual congress.
01:01:30In holy wedlock, naturally.
01:01:32I declined to marry my rapist.
01:01:34Considered the alternative.
01:01:37Leather restraints.
01:01:37A tiled room and 13 tons of water bucketing down on my head.
01:01:42At weekly intervals.
01:01:44Briley alone can't do it.
01:01:46Even Briley and Ilbury and you can't do it.
01:01:51But one doesn't need a panel of doctors, far less a magistrate,
01:01:55to secure urgent treatment for a troubled young family member in a benevolent institution.
01:02:01Solely the signature of one doctor.
01:02:04Our kind friend, Dr. Briley, say.
01:02:06I am sorry to see you suffer so.
01:02:16But you will be better away from here.
01:02:19The law is not on your side.
01:02:23The law being made and enforced by men, I concede your point.
01:02:27But if I can test your treatment,
01:02:38bridle my tongue and appeal most humbly to the kind gentleman of the law,
01:02:44as a girl,
01:02:45will they believe you or me?
01:02:54I'll wager me.
01:02:55And then I will be made ward of the court.
01:02:58And you will be removed.
01:03:00Of what do you think to accuse me?
01:03:04Approval of the match my impetuous son has been rather too determined to make.
01:03:08I cannot be held responsible for any action of his, however reprehensible.
01:03:12And yet, Uncle, I feel the weight of previous suspicion will count against you.
01:03:16Outcast as you are.
01:03:19Shall we roll the dice and see?
01:03:20I might just add, should anything transpire with regards to me,
01:03:36I really don't think your reputation would handle it.
01:03:42Your son is to go away.
01:03:45You as well.
01:03:48Hmm.
01:03:50Twenty-five thousand pounds would hardly do it.
01:03:56Say fifty.
01:03:59Done.
01:04:01How is it you conceive yourself able to appeal to magistrates
01:04:05when you are under the care of a physician
01:04:08who won't allow anything to disturb your fragile state?
01:04:16Fifty thousand pounds to be paid at once by my trustees.
01:04:20At my majority, I will guarantee you and my dear cousins
01:04:24the means to live comfortably elsewhere.
01:04:28Fifty thousand pounds to be paid at once
01:04:31will secure you respite from any further marital proposals.
01:04:36Edward shall go.
01:04:37In my father's house, there are many mansions.
01:04:51You and I needn't set eyes on one another.
01:04:54Hmm.
01:04:57Détente, then.
01:04:59Détente.
01:04:59The carriage will be around directly, sir.
01:05:09It should wait until after dinner.
01:05:10A sudden journey, unless fortified, can be perilous.
01:05:15The master has called the carriage, sir.
01:05:33Dinner downstairs this evening, miss.
01:05:35Your uncle presents his compliments
01:05:38and requests that Miss Maud join the family.
01:05:40That's plenty of immigrants.
01:05:42Mrs. Rosk will do for you tonight.
01:05:44I'm to go for bits and pieces for your cousins.
01:05:47No, you're wanted here.
01:05:48Mrs. Rosk can go for that bits and pieces.
01:05:50Well, the master wouldn't trust her for it.
01:05:54Mr. Ruddon, I mean.
01:05:56Heaps of things they'll need.
01:05:59They'll be so long away.
01:06:01Both my cousins.
01:06:02So says Mr. Ruddon.
01:06:05Now we will miss them.
01:06:14Much as it pains me to see my son and heir
01:06:17depart the ancestral halls,
01:06:20I will have to bear the grief of parting.
01:06:23Your cousin is made of sterner stuff than you, sir.
01:06:28It therefore becomes necessary
01:06:29that your importunity should trouble her no longer.
01:06:39I don't follow, sir.
01:06:42Your stupidity never ceases to reproach me
01:06:46for the callow mistake I made in my youth.
01:06:53And since I do not choose my son's going
01:06:56to be accompanied by any sordid gossip,
01:06:58my daughter shall accompany him.
01:07:01Spell it of French convent will do wonders for you.
01:07:04Et moi?
01:07:07Hmm, madame.
01:07:08It seems after all these years,
01:07:11we can dispense with your services.
01:07:17Indeed, monsieur.
01:07:18I would be pleased to continue my care
01:07:21of Mademoiselle Émilie.
01:07:23A self-sacrifice was ever your strong suit, madame.
01:07:26But I shan't be required to task it further.
01:07:30She is my charge.
01:07:32I shall accompany her.
01:07:34No.
01:07:35Monsieur.
01:07:35I beg your pardon?
01:07:51You'll not part me from our daughter?
01:07:57Dear madame,
01:07:59I fear you're not quite yourself this evening.
01:08:01Emily,
01:08:02don't.
01:08:03Don't let him do this.
01:08:04Don't.
01:08:05Emily.
01:08:08Look at me.
01:08:09Please, Emily.
01:08:10Please, my darling.
01:08:11My own girl.
01:08:12My own place.
01:08:12Don't touch me.
01:08:13Don't.
01:08:13Please, please.
01:08:15All right.
01:08:16Enough.
01:08:17You are, of course,
01:08:18perfectly free
01:08:19to accompany your mother.
01:08:24No, thank you, sir.
01:08:26Emily.
01:08:27No.
01:08:28No, no.
01:08:30No.
01:08:31You're quite worn out.
01:08:32I suggest you retire,
01:08:36rest up
01:08:36before you go.
01:08:39Must I really go?
01:09:04Must I repeat myself?
01:09:06And Maud?
01:09:14Remains at Null with me.
01:09:18Unless you would find a period abroad productive.
01:09:21I shall, of course, remain at Null.
01:09:32Bess?
01:09:32Spiced claret.
01:09:45Master says I'm to undress you.
01:09:50And I say you are not.
01:09:52My silence was a condition
01:10:20of my employment.
01:10:24And yet you blame me
01:10:25and not him.
01:10:29You chose not to trust me
01:10:31with your secret.
01:10:33But I couldn't tell you.
01:10:37But I thought you knew.
01:10:42You did know.
01:10:43I thank you.
01:10:47I thank you
01:10:47for your service.
01:10:52I tell you.
01:10:53I don't know.
01:11:23I don't know.
01:11:53I don't know.
01:12:23I don't know.
01:12:25Maud?
01:12:27I don't know.
01:12:29I don't know.
01:12:33I don't know.
01:12:37I don't know.
01:12:45Such distress.
01:12:47Surely you're content to have banished my brother and me.
01:12:50I would like to give you a memento.
01:12:54A family piece, if you'd care to choose something.
01:12:58If you wish.
01:13:00I don't know.
01:13:08I don't know.
01:13:10I don't know.
01:13:12Oh, my God.
01:13:42Oh, my God.
01:14:12Oh, my God.
01:14:42The invocable impulse of the unbalanced mind.
01:14:45As the good doctor will confirm, there's no need to reproach yourself.
01:14:50We gave her every chance.
01:14:52Peter, I...
01:14:53Don't be such a girl.
01:14:59Peter, it's Emily.
01:15:00Oh, my God.
01:15:11Oh, my God.
01:15:41Oh, my God.
01:16:11Oh, my God.
01:16:41Oh, my God.
01:16:45Darling, Maud.
01:16:52Shall we go out together in a blaze of glory?
01:16:56I have an idea.
01:16:58You go out, and I'll stay here.
01:17:02Glory needn't come into it.
01:17:03So, tell me, Uncle, is Edward also madame's?
01:17:19Edward was got in wedlock.
01:17:23Only my daughter is a bastard.
01:17:27And I would think that you, in your delicate situation, might show a touch more sympathy.
01:17:36The kind you showed me, for example.
01:17:37I would have loved you.
01:17:56You do love me.
01:18:04We are the same, you and I.
01:18:10Then why should my life be forfeit?
01:18:12They're not yours.
01:18:23They're not yours.
01:18:23I gave you every job.
01:18:44I gave you every job.
01:18:45I gave you every job.
01:18:47Let's go!
01:18:49Let's go!
01:18:50Let's go!
01:19:04Help me out!
01:19:29Help me out of room!
01:19:31Captain!
01:19:33Captain!
01:19:35Captain!
01:19:37What's happened?
01:19:39Okay.
01:19:41It's all right. What has happened?
01:19:43What has happened?
01:19:55My father is dead.
01:19:59Murdered.
01:20:01Murdered by Madame.
01:20:07Murdered by Madame.
01:20:13Come, come, come inside.
01:20:15It's all right. It's all right, Lord. Come inside.
01:20:17Turn.
01:20:19He didn't know where to turn.
01:20:31My poor cousin is quite distraught.
01:20:33If you'd only have to say the word, I would have come to you.
01:20:35Madame is also dead.
01:20:37A double tragedy.
01:20:41They were lovers.
01:20:43They were lovers.
01:20:45Or had been once, I think.
01:20:47You will correct me, cousin, if I misapprehended the situation.
01:20:51The prospect of Emily being schooled abroad and no longer requiring a governess put an intolerable strain on Madame's faculties.
01:20:59She can hardly be blamed for stabbing my uncle to death.
01:21:07Did I get that right, cousin?
01:21:09No.
01:21:11Indeed, I'm not altogether sure of my uncle's state of mind.
01:21:13Devastated as he was at the prospect that you had also expressed an intent to leave Norm.
01:21:19A scheme by which you must no means abandon going abroad.
01:21:29America.
01:21:31Australia, I thought.
01:21:37Australia.
01:21:43You would then be unprotected?
01:21:47Ever the dearest companion I have known.
01:21:49I would so miss her when she was away at school.
01:21:53I, of course, cannot leave Norm.
01:21:59You would then be entirely alone?
01:22:03You may rely on me.
01:22:17The direful knowledge of good and evil comes with age.
01:22:31I wonder how I lived through that terrible ordeal.
01:22:37It can only have been the hand of Providence.
01:22:39It can only have been the hand of Providence.
01:22:43What do you do?
01:22:45What do you do?
01:22:46What do you do?
01:22:47Not my back.
01:22:49What do you do?
01:22:51Behold, the day cometh that shall burn like a furnace, and all the proud, and everyone
01:23:13that doth wickedness shall be stubble.
01:23:16Hallelujah!
01:23:17I was a peculiarly innocent girl, my father always said.
01:23:25He told me many lies, and one truth.
01:23:30Angels and demons, monsters and spirits do walk among us, clothed in human flesh.
01:23:38I tell many lies, and one truth.
01:23:41Lies to the liars, and truth to the one who comes after me.
01:23:48Angels and monsters do walk among us.
01:23:51The trick is to tell which is which.
01:23:58Merry Christmas!
01:24:05Cheers!
