The Forsytes S01E02
Transcript
00:00And so it begins, the crumbling of the polished façade, the unravelling of the carefully
00:15curated life we've built for ourselves, free of scandal and inconvenient truths, of hidden
00:26desires and secret longings, but should they emerge, do we let them lie, or do we pursue
00:35them, and are we prepared for the consequences?
00:43Who's bossed that lady that just called?
00:48Did she upset you?
00:51No, no, not at all, I just, um, come here and take your link tips.
00:56But it's horrible.
01:00Oh, so is whooping cough.
01:05Now, go and do your reading.
01:07Go.
01:07So, I was thinking, Mama, I need a new riding coat, so should we visit Miss Louisa today?
01:22Oh, er... I think not. She mentioned last night she's booked up for several months in advance. Well, she'll fit me in. And I want to take some bonbons for the children. No. No?
01:37No. Their mother may not want them to have sweet things. It's so sad, Grandma Ma. Her father died before they were born and she had to bring them up all alone. So brave.
02:08Recommendable. All the more reason not to overburden her. Are you joining us for the opera tonight?
02:14What is it? Traviata?
02:18All that weeping and wailing annoys me.
02:21June, you should wear the pink silk.
02:23I've invited the cartarets to our box.
02:27Why?
02:28So we can all become better acquainted.
02:40Wow.
02:42June must be thrilled. So many young men clamoring to dance.
02:45What a picture she looked.
02:47And that gown was a triumph.
02:49Almost a disaster. But the girl worked wonders.
02:51Girl?
02:52You were ogling her, remember?
02:54That little chick a bit. You might have introduced me.
02:56I took care not to.
02:58She seemed awfully thick with Jo.
03:00The dressmaker?
03:01Who is this?
03:02Pretty young thing. Quite charming.
03:04Remind me, why she was thick with Jo?
03:06Well, perhaps he was thanking her for saving the day.
03:08Can you get an appointment with her?
03:10That's what I'm hoping for.
03:12After June's bore, everyone will be after her.
03:15Shall we?
03:16Oh.
03:22What are you doing?
03:29Seeking employment.
03:32I was a typist.
03:34Oh, how demeaning.
03:37I need something to tide me over until I can find a way to pay for Paris.
03:41Oh, you're still persisting with that madness.
03:44Yes. Why wouldn't I?
03:54Sir?
03:55Yeah.
03:57Good?
04:03Congratulations.
04:05Very much. Thank you very much.
04:07Very well done.
04:08Very nice.
04:09Thank you, sir.
04:09Good to see you.
04:13The point is, there is no prior instance of a chairman resigning.
04:17No.
04:17And therefore no precedent for the eldest son's accession before his father's death.
04:21So in the case of Jo...
04:22Increasingly at odds with the aims of the firm.
04:24If it were brought before the board, how much further he might deviate?
04:28How that could endanger the future of the company?
04:30The sheer insanity of the prizing tradition over merit.
04:33It's archaic.
04:34It's wasteful.
04:35And if it goes ahead, a missed opportunity.
04:37It is not a foregone conclusion.
04:39I will insist it be brought before the board.
04:41In the meantime, we build the case against Jo.
05:07I saw her.
05:20At the pool, last night.
05:22The girl from Venice?
05:25Louisa.
05:26How did she come to be there?
05:28She makes gowns.
05:30June's gown.
05:32She's a widow.
05:33She lives in Soho.
05:33Do you have any idea?
05:34No, not an inkling.
05:35Will you see her again?
05:39I don't know.
05:48Were you told who to marry?
05:51I chose freely.
05:55Your father was my first love.
05:56And when he died, I was sure I would never get over him.
06:02But he did.
06:04Nothing compares to first love.
06:06We persuade ourselves the fever is real.
06:10And then, if we're lucky, we meet our true soulmate and discover something more profound.
06:18So, Papa's your soulmate?
06:22Like magnets, perhaps.
06:24The attraction of opposites.
06:26Gentlemen, today, I can announce that Forsyte & Co. has been offered a unique opportunity.
06:42My old friend, Sir Jimmy Buckland, has finally succeeded in his scheme to deploy a tribe from Upper India to the gold mines of Ceylon.
06:49Carried in the teeth of great difficulties, it should double the output of his mines.
06:52And caught to the lives of his workers.
06:55Well, whether one expires of miserable old age on one's own barren soil or prematurely of damp at the bottom of a foreign mine, I hardly...
07:01Surely of small consequence, as long as it benefits the shareholders.
07:05Well, I imagine it's of some consequence to the widows.
07:09May I continue?
07:14Sir Jim, as a personal favour to me, has given us advance notice so that we may use the information to our advantage.
07:21By offering our clients, and indeed ourselves, the chance to invest.
07:27It is, quite literally, a golden opportunity.
07:33It's a risk.
07:35Which we have an impeccable record for calculating.
07:37Still feels like gambling to me.
07:46Are we agreed?
07:47Yes, agreed.
07:49Adjourned.
07:54I'll be back later.
07:55I have an appointment.
07:56Anyone we know?
07:58No.
07:58No.
08:07Is it to your taste?
08:24I could admire the tonal qualities, but no, it doesn't move me.
08:28May I ask what does?
08:30A more vibrant style.
08:34Something which captures the fleettiness of a moment rather than preserves it in aspic.
08:38You're a romantic.
08:41My stepmother says I'm utterly unfit for decent society.
08:44Your crime?
08:46I dance.
08:48The polka?
08:49The waltz?
08:50The ballet.
08:52Ah.
08:53My mother was a dancer, and I seem to have inherited her...
08:57Talent.
08:58Passion.
09:00There, I said it.
09:00Now's your chance to escape.
09:02And yet, as you see, I'm still here.
09:08So, no escape.
09:29From what?
09:30The opera.
09:31The carterets.
09:32The scheme to throw me to the wolves.
09:35Horatio?
09:36Oh, isn't he more of a poodle?
09:43Well, look who I have.
09:45I know she's not mine, but I take her with me when I'm feeling vexed or miserable.
09:51And she always cheers me up.
09:53Is that why you got her?
09:57She was a gift.
09:59From a friend.
10:01Someone I met in Italy.
10:04An attachment.
10:06Short-lived.
10:07Let me guess.
10:08She wasn't suitable.
10:10You were forbidden to pursue her.
10:12We just went our separate ways.
10:15And then you met Mama?
10:18Yes.
10:20I'm not sure I want to fall in love.
10:23Sounds like torture.
10:26Well, you can also be magnificent.
10:28Jo never seems to learn today in the boardroom, wittering on about widows and gambling.
10:40Oh, poor Cyril.
10:41How he frets when he knows I'm going out.
10:43Shall I stay behind and pet him for you?
10:45Oh, dear, no.
10:46That would defeat the whole purpose of the evening.
10:48The purpose being to dangle June and I before the carterets and hope they bite.
10:51What he fails to grasp is the need for us to be led by sound commercial nurse.
10:56Darling, we simply want you to find someone who deserves you.
11:00If we're to maintain our position as London's premier brokers, the board should be worried.
11:03And you look so handsome.
11:05The board will be worried.
11:06She won't be able to resist you.
11:08We'll make sure of that.
11:32So glad you could join us, Lady Carteret.
11:34Oh, my dear, to be seen in the company of the illustrious foresights, who wouldn't leap at the chance.
11:44Lovely to see so many young people.
11:47It's sad to think they're seldom masters of their own fate.
11:51I like to think we take their views into account.
11:54Tradition is what counts.
11:56Stability.
11:57No impulsive changing of the guard.
11:59But sometimes, is it not a fresh perspective that is exactly what is needed?
12:05Provided the proposed candidates up to the task.
12:09I understand you're an avid reader.
12:11But I...
12:14Have you read Frankenstein?
12:18No, I...
12:19You'll find you have some sympathy for the creature.
12:22No will of its own.
12:24Forced to do another's bidding.
12:25Until, of course, it rebels.
12:27Ah, you seem to have left my wife at home.
12:38Perhaps I could prevail on your father.
12:41Or you could just not drink.
12:45Oh, my cousins.
12:47Mama, I might just, um...
12:49Of course.
12:49I do beg your pardon.
13:08Are you hurt?
13:11Do I look like a damsel in distress?
13:14On the contrary.
13:16Are you here with friends?
13:17Family.
13:18My mother thinks this is the place to meet the right people.
13:22Would I fall into that category?
13:24I seriously doubt it.
13:27Do I sense a renegade?
13:31June Foresight.
13:34Philip Bacilli.
13:37Buccaneer.
13:38God bless you.
13:45CHOIR SINGS
14:15I adore Traviata. Makes one positively melt, don't you find?

15:30You miss me, Pudding?
15:31CHOIR SINGS
15:32Oh, don't suck. I promise I'll make it up to you.
15:35Always affecting, Traviata.
15:38Lost love and all that.
15:42Perhaps we should be celebrating love found.
15:46Perhaps we should.
15:47Can you believe June tonight?
16:06Determined not to cooperate.
16:10The Carterets, our plans.
16:14Will you speak to her?
16:17Saying what?
16:20That there's a time and a place for everything.
16:23And the time for June is now.
16:28She's 18.
16:32She has to put away childish things.
16:37She worships you.
16:40If you tell her, we would only ever choose someone worthy of her.
16:44But perhaps you think your father made the wrong choice for you.
16:50I made the choice.
16:51I made the choice.
17:03I made the choice.
17:04I made the choice.
17:05It was easy.
17:06She wrote a book.
17:07She took care of her.
17:08She said,
17:11She's like,
17:12I don't know.
17:13I'm here with her.
17:15She didn't make the choice.
17:17She didn't make the choice.
17:18I didn't make the choice.
17:19I didn't make her a choice.
17:20They made the choice.
17:21I didn't make the choice.
17:23You must go.
17:38I can't bear to leave you.
17:42Your family needs you.
17:44Your father has summoned you home.
17:47And I return.
17:50Where will you be?
17:52Florence, Rome?
17:53Well, you write to me.
17:57Tell me where you'll be.
17:58Joel, stop.
18:02Let's not pretend.
18:06What?
18:08These past few months.
18:09Have been the most precious of my life.
18:11And mine too, but...
18:13I always knew they would come to an end.
18:18Why must they?
18:20Because I am a lady's maid
18:22and you're a gentleman.
18:24I want to know
18:24a gentleman
18:25that will marry the lady's maid.
18:29You're dreaming.
18:33Believe me, I'm not.
18:37If you still feel
18:38this way in a year's time...
18:41not for the same way
18:41in 50 years' time.
18:48Then I have your address.
18:51All right.
18:56Wherever you are...
18:57I'll come to you.
19:00a man's sake...
19:02I no idea...
19:10...
19:13there's a lot ofети...
19:14's
19:15I don't know.
19:17I don't know.
19:17But I think my wife...
19:18never's up.
19:18I don't know.
19:18You'll know.
19:19He's home.
19:19Come on.
19:19Go on.
19:20Come on.
19:20Come on.
19:21Come on.
19:22Come home.
19:23Come on.
19:23Come on.
19:24Come on.
19:25Come on!
19:26If I'm lucky for his daughter,
19:26come on.
19:27Come on.
19:28Come on!
19:28Come on!
19:29Louisa. Louisa, please.
19:51Please, keep your voice down.
19:54My assistant is asleep.
19:55Okay. Why have you come?
20:03Honestly, I don't know.
20:08To prove you aren't a figment of my imagination.
20:13Or to see the only person who ever completely understood me.
20:19Did. We are very different now.
20:22Yet here we are.
20:25Do you still paint?
20:40Really.
20:42It's one of the many things I gave up to serve the God of Commerce.
20:47It's sad to hear it.
20:51Well, tell me about your husband.
20:53Late husband.
20:54Is there any point in...
20:57Well, were you happy?
21:01Did you love him?
21:08That's my assistant.
21:09She sleepwalks.
21:11You must go.
21:14Please don't come here again.
21:15You must go.
21:20Oh, my God.
21:34Oh, my God.
21:36You must
21:38hear me.
21:38God bless you.
22:08God bless you.
22:38God bless you.
23:08You needn't have gone to such trouble. I'm happy with bread and cheese.
23:13Oh, so am I. And when nature arranges a feast for the soul, what more does one need?
23:18When we lived in Paris, we used to picnic by the Seine.
23:23You were happy there.
23:28When my mother was alive and I could watch her dance.
23:31And you were destined to follow in her footsteps.
23:33As you were destined to follow your father's.
23:35I seem to have a talent for numbers.
23:40In their own way, they have the magic which intrigues me.
23:43You make them sound quite mysterious.
23:45Well, they are. Also immensely practical.
23:49Like you, one learns techniques, one practices one's craft.
23:53But beyond that, one learns to trust one's instincts.
23:56Exactly that?
24:02Not that I lay claim to any form of artistry.
24:05Perhaps you underestimate yourself.
24:07You're dancing.
24:19Is it the only profession you've ever considered?
24:21I've prepared for it my whole life.
24:23And if my audition goes well...
24:25Your audition?
24:26I sold my jewelry to go and try for the Cordy Ballet.
24:29In Paris?
24:30Yes, in Paris.
24:31And when would this be?
24:34I leave in a month.
24:37Oh.
24:46I'm convinced he has Miss Carteret in his sights.
24:49Parcheter told me he's on the river this afternoon.
24:52With a picnic.
24:53Which can only mean...
24:55An imminent announcement.
24:57I'm sure we can all agree Olivia Carteret is an excellent choice.
25:01Certainly fits the bill for a man destined to be chairman.
25:06Miss Heron.
25:08We've known each other a matter of weeks.
25:10So I have no right to question any choice you might make.
25:13But today when I heard you speak of Paris...
25:14Oh, you thought me rash, irresponsible.
25:16Far from it.
25:18I understood the impulse.
25:20The desire.
25:20And I recognized that I wish to encourage it.
25:24Encourage?
25:25It's true that Paris has a somewhat shady reputation.
25:28Though I myself found it captivating.
25:31You've been?
25:33In my youth.
25:34And would not be averse to visiting again.
25:37If you were there.
25:40Though my family will no doubt they disapprove.
25:43Perhaps we needn't tell them.
25:45Mrs. Forsythe.
26:04I hope I'm not disturbing you.
26:08Won't you take a seat?
26:09I've always been curious about you.
26:18The girl who first captured his heart.
26:22Not that he ever spoke of you.
26:24One just instinctively knows.
26:27That one wasn't the first.
26:28What made you come to my house?
26:35You begged me to.
26:37And you were curious.
26:40And hoped to see him.
26:41I've never attempted to see him.
26:43I've never tried to contact him.
26:45I've never asked him for anything.
26:48Does he know about the children?
26:51No.
26:52You understand he never can.
26:54It would ruin him.
26:56In his business, reputation is everything.
26:59And in mine.
27:01I came here with nothing.
27:03Single-handedly raised.
27:04His two children.
27:06Whilst building a business.
27:07Do you seriously imagine that I wish to endanger my own good name?
27:10And should he try to see you?
27:14I will tell him to go away.
27:15I will tell him to go away.
27:26I will tell him to go away.
27:27I will tell him to go away.
27:28I will tell him to go away.
27:29I will tell him to go away.
27:30I will tell him to go away.
27:31I will tell him to go away.
27:32I will tell him to go away.
27:33I will tell him to go away.
27:34I will tell him to go away.
27:35I will tell him to go away.
27:36I will tell him to go away.
27:37I will tell him to go away.
27:38I will tell him to go away.
27:39I will tell him to go away.
27:40I will tell him to go away.
27:41I will tell him to go away.
27:42I will tell him to go away.
27:43I will tell him to go away.
27:44He will tell him to go away.
27:45I will tell him to go away.
27:46He will tell him to go away.
27:47He will tell him to go away.
27:48I thought your scrawling days were long gone.
28:06Something you wanted, Sam's.
28:07Perhaps you should give it all up.
28:10Quit the grind and daub away to your heart's content.
28:14Perhaps I should.
28:17Why don't you?
28:18I'll ask my father or yours.
28:21Of course.
28:24You're here to save us.
28:27How noble.
28:32Good day to you, Sam's.
28:45What did I say?
28:47First time we boxed at Oxford.
28:49I never make it as a fighter because I like to submen.
28:54Remind me why we became friends.
28:56Because we both needed a punch bag.
28:58And I was missing size.
28:59So, brother, a number of us have been speaking and we're keen to hear Joe's vision for the company.
29:10Vision?
29:11Hmm.
29:11The head of the vote.
29:13What vote?
29:15There'll be no vote.
29:16The decision is mine.
29:17Yeah, but must be ratified.
29:19It's tradition.
29:21Eldest son to eldest son.
29:22Well, with respect.
29:23Well, you broke with tradition when you pushed Joe into the chair before your demise.
29:29Even so...
29:29I mean, surely.
29:31You want all the board to be fully behind the new appointment?
29:35Don't think I don't know what you're about.
29:37You have your eye on the prize for Soames.
29:41I think we both know he's the better man for the job.
29:43Isaac, just curious.
29:56Did you pick up any sense for any other partners what they think of Joe's promotion?
30:02I know what I think.
30:04Tell me.
30:06He's passionate.
30:07Struggles to compromise.
30:09But that's why this company needs him.
30:13In ten years, he's never let you down.
30:18I don't believe he ever will.
30:23Thank you, Isaac.
30:35Your father just told me.
30:38Beggars believe the idea of a vote.
30:41Expected.
30:42Well, you know James is setting you up to fail.
30:45Quite.
30:48Disappoint him.
30:50You have the vision, the ability.
30:54You deserve it.
30:56We deserve it.
30:58So let's be very considered about our next move.
31:01I'll throw it away in a moment of madness.
31:06Zero.
31:07Four.
31:10Four.
31:25Four.
31:26Zero.
31:28Four.
31:29Four.
31:29Someone's looking pleased with themselves.
31:41Happy Miss Carteret.
31:42Happy Soames, if there's any sense.
31:44Which I'm certain he does.
31:46Well, I mustn't be late.
31:48I told June I'd take her with me, but Frances has forbidden her to go.
31:51Go where?
31:52The dressmaker, Mrs Louisa, who also does wedding gowns.
31:57Why did Frances forbid her?
31:58No idea, but she was absolutely insistent.
32:00June is not to go.
32:02Well, I'm heading into town myself.
32:03Can I drop you?
32:04Silk Street in Soho.
32:06There's a jeweler's nearby.
32:08Won't you join us?
32:10No, I will make my own arrangements.
32:20My dear, are you quite well?
32:23Yes.
32:24That is, a matter has come to my attention.
32:31I'm not quite sure how to manage it.
32:37That will be, um, Mrs Darty.
32:40Uh, is Mrs Byrne at home?
32:52Children, put those down.
32:54Come here.
33:00Hello.
33:02Are you...
33:03My children, yes.
33:12And their father?
33:14He died.
33:16A long time ago.
33:18Before we were born.
33:21How old are you?
33:22Ten.
33:23Hannah, take the children.
33:25But Mama, please do as I say.
33:26I need to speak.
33:27With this, Jeb, I'll come to you soon.
33:28Who is their father?
33:46Is he dead?
33:49Is he?
33:49That's good, Alice.
34:03Dear God, Louisa, you couldn't think to tell me.
34:05What should I have said?
34:08No claim on you.
34:09We barely knew each other.
34:12I saw myself for what I was.
34:14A diversion.
34:17I loved you.
34:18You desired me as I desired you.
34:21And what we had was brief and careless.
34:25And could never have come to anything.
34:30You should have looked for me.
34:32After Venice.
34:33You knew my family.
34:34You knew my name.
34:34I did look for you.
34:36When I knew I was with child.
34:38I had every intention of seeking you out.
34:40So why didn't you?
34:42I read about your marriage in the newspaper.
34:44What else could I do but make my own arrangements?
34:51Earn enough to set aside for my confinement.
34:54I took in mending, embroidery, anything I could to provide for my child.
35:00Children, as it turned out.
35:02But if you told me.
35:03Then what?
35:05You had a wife, a stepchild, a family name.
35:07Is that supposed to be your guilty secret?
35:13Better to find my own means to provide for my children.
35:17Our children.
35:21Our children.
35:25They can never know.
35:29Please don't make this difficult.
35:30Our lives need not be thrown into disarray simply because we happen to meet again.
35:45As you wish.
35:49But first I'd like to see the children again.
35:53Don't do this.
35:56Please let me see them, Louisa.
35:57Please.
36:13Children, come here.
36:18And it is certain the children are his?
36:23Beyond doubt.
36:27And he doesn't know.
36:29Does anyone?
36:30Nor must they.
36:32James and Soames especially.
36:34Indeed.
36:35How trustworthy is this girl?
36:37Could she threaten to expose him?
36:38I don't believe she will.
36:40She's posing as a widow.
36:42Good.
36:42And a respectable dressmaker.
36:45So we are confident the matter will go no further?
36:49We are.
36:50Come.
36:58Come.
37:00This is a friend of mine.
37:10Hello.
37:13I'm Joe.
37:14How funny.
37:15So am I.
37:18But everyone calls me Joss.
37:22May I call you Joss?
37:29I'm Holly.
37:31I know he looks older.
37:32But we're twins.
37:33It's a pleasure to meet you, Holly.
37:40Are you crying?
37:44Yes, I am crying.
37:48Are you sad?
37:50No.
37:53I'm happy.
37:57Happier than you can imagine.
37:58Sorry.
38:05I don't wish to scare you.
38:07That's the last thing I want.
38:08Please, you must leave.
38:10I have clients to you.
38:12The back door, this way.
38:21Please don't come here again.
38:28I'll see you at dinner, pa.
38:42kitchen.
38:45Come on, I don't want you to do that.
39:03$0.
39:05Okay.
39:06I don't want to be me.
39:06Just Gel�.
39:06You're fine.
39:07Shh.
39:07I'm so sorry.
39:07I'm so sorry.
39:08I'm so sorry.
39:09I'm so sorry.
39:11I don't want to be better.
39:12I was told you were looking for me.
39:26I came just now from Soho.
39:29Yes?
39:31From the dressmaker, Louisa.
39:34She and I knew each other years ago.
39:36I'm aware.
39:39I've seen her myself.
39:42Then you know about...
39:43The children.
39:44Yes.
39:51Nothing about their existence is simple.
39:57And clearly there are consequences.
40:00Yes.
40:02The possibility of discovery.
40:06How it can be used against you.
40:08Just as we're in touching distance of everything we've worked for.
40:16We're a partnership.
40:18A family.
40:20Let's not complicate or compromise.
40:24We can put all of this behind us and go on as before.
40:26I don't think you understand.
40:30I can't go on as before.
40:33Before, I was unaware.
40:35But you're under no obligation.
40:36I can't wish away two human beings, Francis.
40:43You mean to acknowledge them?
40:46I mean not to know their existence.
40:47I mean not to know their existence.
40:59For now.
41:02Promise me.
41:04No one need know.
41:07It would be catastrophic.
41:10For you as chairman.
41:13For us as a family.
41:14For me as your wife.
41:15I promise.
41:26How could you?
41:27How could you?
41:27I promise.
41:35Hello.
41:36Oh my god.
41:38Come on.
42:48What did you hear?
42:55All of it.
42:56I knew her before your mother and I had met.
43:07But it makes no difference to us.
43:09You're still my beloved daughter.
43:10Except now I have to share you.
43:12No.
43:12Mama has to share you.
43:13No.
43:25It's her, isn't it?
43:27Luisa.
43:28The one who gave you this.
43:29Forgive me, Miss Herron, but in the spirit of our recent conversation, I wanted to bring
43:55you a gift.
44:00Oh, they're beautiful.
44:06Oh, thank you.
44:08I hope they might speed you on your way to Paris and the fulfillment of your desires.
44:13Oh, Mr. Forsyte, you've been such a friend to me.
44:20I hope so.
44:23I do.
44:25And yet...
44:27With your permission, I would like to think of myself as more than a friend.
44:36Forgive me.
44:43I'm well-schooled in matters of business.
44:46Less so in matters of the heart.
44:50Which, to be frank, has never been touched.
44:53Not by a single soul.
44:56Until...
44:58Believe me, I never intended to speak so soon, but...
45:03Your imminent departure, I...
45:06I can no longer leave unsaid what I've known from the moment I saw you.
45:16You are my heart's desire.
45:18I cannot...
45:20Imagine...
45:21A life without you.
45:23Mr. Forsyte, this is...
45:26Unexpected.
45:29But not, I hope, unwelcome.
45:32I...
45:33To be truthful, I'm...
45:36A little astonished.
45:37We scarcely know each other.
45:39But what we do know might lead us to be...
45:41Hopeful.
45:45Perhaps...
45:46Um...
45:47Then let me say one more thing.
45:53I'm convinced we could be happy.
45:59But if you find we cannot...
46:01Though, God help me, I'll move heaven and earth to make us so.
46:04I will release you.
46:07And you will be free.
46:12That's...
46:12Very generous.
46:15But if you agree to our engagement...
46:18We will go to Paris together.
46:21And from there, plan our future.
46:23And it will be all that you've dreamed of.
46:28And more.
46:35Just imagine, Cyril...
46:39Dear Soames engaged and replacing Joa's chair.
46:42That day could be closer than you think.
46:47Come on, child.
47:08Spit it out.
47:09Last night.
47:31You know.
