01:42James! Lonell! Dad's here!
01:57Hey. How come you're already back here? Where's James? His room probably. I hear his Oxford interviews were a success. Hopefully he's had some time to dedicate to our meeting tomorrow as well. I assume so. I'll ask him. Dad, how about a late night cover? It'll calm us after a long day. I'll tell James to join us and we can discuss everything. Hm? Yeah. Good idea.
02:27I'm sorry. It's just a shame. It's all good though. How high are we here? Can I climb out somewhere? Hey, no way. Sooner or later he has to find out about us being together. How about now, yeah?
02:51Sometimes it's fear itself that we should fear most. Only those who can face it can learn whether it was justified. Those who run away from it will always carry its shadow with them.
03:06Oh, yeah.
03:26James?
03:27Dan.
03:29I believe no introductions are necessary. You know Ruby, don't you?
03:32Hello, Mr. Beaufort.
03:42Miss Val, we're having a late cup of tea. Would you like to join us?
03:50I would.
04:10From what I hear within school, you're very active.
04:14I have a lead role on the events committee.
04:16And she's our year group's best.
04:19And you're continuing to study?
04:21In Autumn at Oxford, yes.
04:22And what did you decide on the subject you'll read there?
04:24PPE. Philosophy, political science.
04:26Economics.
04:27I studied the same subjects myself, in fact.
04:30Also at Balliol.
04:32I'm going to St. Hilda's, sir.
04:35Just like your mother.
04:39You've never said that?
04:41Back then I moved to England for Cordelia.
04:44The memories we shared together in Oxford.
04:46Those are among the fondest of all.
04:55Your parents, what do they do?
04:56My father's a cook and my mother's a master baker.
04:58Oh, so not academic.
04:59They have a really charming bakery.
05:02The cinnamon knots are an absolute dream.
05:04My daughter's well aware of my weakness for a good bakery.
05:08So then I assume they won't be able to support your studies for the entire time.
05:12Luckily it's not a problem any longer.
05:14Ruby's got a scholarship from the Alice Campbell Foundation.
05:17Ah.
05:18That is excellent news.
05:21Congratulations.
05:22And what draws you to Oxford, Miss Bell?
05:26Even if it risks sounding very cheesy, but...
05:30I would have to say my heart.
05:35As a girl, I remember taking a day trip with my father there one summer.
05:40He told me all about the history of the city
05:42and how many people come from all over the world to study there every year.
05:48We, uh, picnicked under the roses in the college gardens
05:51and simply listened to everyone as Plato, Nietzsche
05:53and the theories of Simone de Beauvoir were debated.
05:59It was magical.
06:00So since then studying at Oxford's all I've ever wanted
06:05and I've annoyed my parents ever since.
06:08I, uh, still have some things to do.
06:10Excuse me if you wouldn't mind.
06:13Naturally.
06:14I wish you a safe journey back tonight.
06:16Miss Bell?
06:18Goodnight.
06:21Goodnight.
06:22Tell me it wasn't something I said.
06:23Tell me it wasn't something I said.
06:27Tell me it wasn't something I said.
06:28I'm not offering it.
06:29Didn't it?
06:30I mean it wasn't something I said.
06:31I don't know.
06:32What I said.
06:33I said no one left.
06:34I didn't know it was a school.
06:35There was no investigation.
06:36I had no idea.
06:37I didn't know it.
06:38I was in my hospital.
06:39You know it was down there.
06:40I had no idea.
06:41You know it was my school, I was in my hospital.
06:42I had no idea.
06:43I was in my hospital.
06:45I had no idea.
06:46I'll see you tomorrow.
07:16I hope the roses survive the storm.
07:23They've already experienced a lot.
07:26Mrs. Beaufort had already cared for them since her own childhood.
07:31How long did you and Mrs. Beaufort know each other?
07:37My grandfather had worked as the chauffeur for the family for many years.
07:41And my father after him, I spent my childhood here.
07:48My heart felt sympathy, Percy.
07:54No rain, no flowers.
07:56That's what my father always used to say to us children when we were sad.
08:00We must bear in mind that time heals all wounds, and that even the most painful experiences
08:05can lead us to develop further.
08:08Sometimes we can even draw strength from them.
08:11It gives me courage.
08:12Yeah?
08:13I hoped you weren't sleeping yet.
08:15Ruby, I have to say it once again.
08:30You are extraordinary.
08:31We're so proud of what you do every day, and now there's this scholarship on top of that.
08:35That is unbelievable.
08:37Thanks, Mom.
08:38Although I'm a little bit worried.
08:45I'm so happy that James was introduced to us.
08:48He really seems to be a nice young man.
08:51But don't forget you have due to him who suffered a lot of emotion.
08:55He has changed, though.
08:56Yeah, I know.
08:58It's important to be careful, remember.
09:05And from what I've seen in the press, I'd say his father definitely isn't the most easy
09:10person you'll meet.
09:11Mom.
09:12The complications that are all part of such a relationship that we can't even imagine.
09:16Darling, his is an entirely different world.
09:19Mom.
09:20You and Dad prove to us every day that love shifts mountains if necessary.
09:23Maybe we haven't reached your level yet, but we're off on our way.
09:27Just promise me you'll look after yourself the best you can.
09:42I promise, Mom.
09:46Good night.
09:47Good night.
09:48Good night.
10:16And now, what should I do now?
10:44You can leave me, can you? You're alone like this.
10:51How could you?
10:56Dad? Dad!
10:59Hey, hey, you don't. You're okay?
11:02Everything's okay. You're okay, Dad.
11:04Come on, you're okay. Everything's okay.
11:09Everything's okay.
11:11Hey.
11:14Dad, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
11:17Everything's okay, Dad. Hey.
11:19You're all good. We're here.
11:22Shh. Hey. It's all right.
11:26It's all right.
11:30Hey.
11:32It's all right.
11:41Morning.
11:43Morning.
11:45I had a pretty awful dream.
11:47That was no dream.
11:50It was so surreal.
11:53It made me sad somehow, but also strangely peaceful.
11:55So strange.
11:56Here's something for the meeting I've prepared.
11:59I've included all the important numbers and current information.
12:02You'll find it all clearly listed.
12:04Good morning, children.
12:06Hey.
12:08I've included all the important numbers and current information.
12:10You'll find it all clearly listed.
12:11Good morning, children.
12:12Hey.
12:13How are you, Dad?
12:14Let's just please forget that, hmm?
12:15There's no need to worry.
12:16No shame in it.
12:18Hey.
12:19Hey.
12:20Hey.
12:21It's all good.
12:22Something last night has to teach us, is that...
12:23is that we always have to be together.
12:24We're together, Dad.
12:25No.
12:26No.
12:27No.
12:28No.
12:29No.
12:30No.
12:31No.
12:32No.
12:33No.
12:34No.
12:35No.
12:36No.
12:37No.
12:38No.
12:39No.
12:40No.
12:41No.
12:42No.
12:43No.
12:44No.
12:45No.
12:46No.
12:47No.
12:48No.
12:49No.
12:50No.
12:51Lydia has already collated some data for the meeting.
12:57You really should take a look.
12:58This is just a few ideas I've scribbled down.
13:00But it should actually give you all the relevant information anyway.
13:03And I've also listed a concept that I've already been working on for a while.
13:07In case the moment comes, you could present it and show that behind Beaufort there's a progressive and strong mindset stance.
13:21Let's try it, shall we?
13:23Ready?
13:24Mm-hmm.
13:29Ready to head out?
13:31Yeah.
13:45I know there are no photographers in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
13:48No, Kieran, the photos are within the frame.
13:50I mean, in the budget, bring it, will you, as tomorrow it has to be hanging.
13:56He's desperate to do more.
14:01Coolest costume.
14:02I'm going to put this bag on, yeah?
14:03Bam.
14:04Pretty sweet, right?
14:05Yeah, stylish.
14:06Really working it.
14:08That's good, huh?
14:09Cyril.
14:10Hey.
14:10Perfect.
14:11Yeah.
14:11Bam.
14:13Oi, oi.
14:13They wobble.
14:14What do you reckon?
14:16Maybe this is better.
14:17I reckon it suits you, brother.
14:18Stottle.
14:19Yeah.
14:20Hi.
14:21Hey.
14:23Hey.
14:24Hiya.
14:26Was it okay in the end with your dad?
14:29Let's just say it was a well-needed release for him.
14:32It's as if meeting you yesterday has forced him to reconsider.
14:35And made him decide to make amends.
14:37Really?
14:38He even listened to my ideas for the meeting and was quietly enthusiastic.
14:42He and James will now discuss them with the board before the shareholders meeting tomorrow.
14:45Lydia, that's so cool.
14:46Do you want to help?
15:03Here.
15:04You can hang the flowers on the tree.
15:06Just there.
15:07Yep.
15:08Yeah.
15:08It's just over there.
15:12We can go and try a labour.
15:18Hello, Owen.
15:18James.
15:19Great that you're here.
15:21Yeah.
15:21Thanks for coming, Mr.
15:22Hello, James.
15:23Mortimer.
15:23Oh.
15:24Oh, welcome.
15:25Mortimer.
15:26Welcome.
15:27Good to see you.
15:36Harold.
15:37Hello.
15:37How are you?
15:37Thank you all for coming.
15:41Ladies, gentlemen.
15:43In preparation for the investor round tomorrow, we have adjusted our presentation as discussed.
15:48Mortimer, despite the grandiose promises of success, it's the actual share price deteriorating.
15:54James' unfortunate speech at the Campbell Gala was not really helpful.
15:58I really hope that you're aware of the situation you've put the company in because of your unpredictable
16:02behaviour at that time, young man.
16:04From the bottom of my heart, I'm sorry, if your opinion is that I've affected the company
16:14with my actions.
16:15We'll be interested in your opinion.
16:17The results are there for all of us to see.
16:19Under Cordelia, this would never have happened, James.
16:21The numbers are there and everyone can see it.
16:22And the facts as well.
16:23Gentlemen, gentlemen, please, I can understand your anger, but give James a chance to detail
16:30the situation.
16:34At first glance, it might seem like there's a correlation between the share's decline
16:40and my expression.
16:42But since the speech went viral, there has in fact been an increase in brand awareness,
16:46especially among young females who are a lucrative option.
16:48James, we've never targeted female customers with anything, and an increase of younger customers
16:53will only help us in the long term.
16:54What's important for us here is to have an acute, noteworthy plan to ensure that none
17:00of our customers will leave us.
17:03In that case, and with respect, I believe it would be wisest to offer investors a two-pronged
17:07strategy presentation.
17:08And I believe in the current situation it would be wisest to reserve your opinion.
17:12It's thanks to you we're in this situation, you know.
17:15Harold.
17:16James, we can discuss the innovative aspect of your ideas at another time in detail.
17:23Of course, we've given a lot of thought to our brand, and guarding our image, and as
17:27soon as possible, stabilizing it all.
17:30Miss Stevens has now developed a marketing strategy with which we will emphasize the
17:34proven core elements of our brand and our future plan.
17:37Miss Stevens?
17:37Boafort is a tradition-rich brand, and especially in today's times, lifelong traditions, stable
17:50values, and high standards of quality are always recognized.
17:54And by acknowledging our investors, we'll regain their trust along with that of our customers,
18:00and we'll go back to focusing on the financially established core target group of 40-plus.
18:05I agree.
18:06That idea's better.
18:08That looks pretty dangerous, what you're trying.
18:23Are you sure that you know what you're doing, Kieran?
18:25He does all of this just for you.
18:28As if.
18:30What do we do if he actually falls?
18:34Believe what you want.
18:35Everyone sees the evidence.
18:36Kieran, you have to support yourself.
18:38It seems other things are also going on at the moment without you seeing.
18:41Good.
18:42That's it.
18:42Yeah, yeah, keep it parallel.
18:44Yeah, that's good.
18:45Be careful, Kieran.
18:46It's shaking quite a bit.
18:47Lynn.
18:49Since when?
18:50Be careful.
18:50We had a secret on-off type thing going on last year.
18:53We had a secret on-off type thing going on last year.
18:53Friends with benefits, without any pressure.
18:55Then my dad left my mum, and I guess it was just that everything was reorganized, and
19:00then it became less on than off.
19:01But after the white picnic, he called me again to ask how I was doing, and now we're having
19:07a lot of contact.
19:09I know you don't like each other, but he totally has another side.
19:11And when we're together, we have a really good time.
19:14And it's not like it's forever.
19:15I didn't notice.
19:16That's what surprises me.
19:17Oh, Kieran!
19:19Kieran!
19:19Are you all right?
19:20Are you okay?
19:21Are you ready to drop in?
19:22Not really.
19:32Are you really not injured?
19:34I'm totally fine.
19:35I'll be right back, yeah?
19:36Okay.
19:38Hello, Mrs. Campbell.
19:38Definitely good, yeah?
19:45Oh, okay.
19:48I understand.
19:49I'm okay.
19:50Thanks.
19:53Actually, thank you for the information.
19:57What's happened?
19:58Looks good, right?
20:06I'll prepare everything and circulate the PDF so that everyone has it for tomorrow's meeting.
20:10Thank you, Julia.
20:12Yeah.
20:15Mom dedicated years to fighting the rusty agendas this company's made.
20:26Just for you and this stranger to reinstate them.
20:28This stranger, mind you, is highly qualified.
20:31As well as global network...
20:32How did she come up with this sugar daddy image campaign for us?
20:37Mom would have been completely ashamed.
20:39Your mother had been out of touch all too often.
20:42Exactly like your sister.
20:43Who tries to impose her subversive ideas on everyone.
20:46I have no desire to be in a future which has the traditions of you aging men in front of us.
20:53Is this young madam supporting your new expressive ideas?
20:57Everything that I do, however, is all done to repair.
21:08Julia's helping me to patch up the damage that you have managed to create.
21:12So maybe you should be grateful about what...
21:13Grateful!
21:13I should be grateful.
21:19Grateful you're immediately replacing mum with this other woman as well as completely ignoring everything that Lydia wants to achieve with Beaufort.
21:26You don't care at all what I want.
21:30Yet I'm to believe my well-being concerns you.
21:33It was about nothing else, James.
21:39Family is all there is.
21:53Alice Campbell's withdrawn Ropey's scholarship.
21:55Say that you had no part in this.
22:15Wait!
22:16Better think again.
22:17Back off now, Dad!
22:18If you just leave, on your head be it, you'll regret it, I swear.
22:25James!
22:36We'll travel to the conference again.
22:39Excuse me, sir.
22:39I don't want to interrupt.
22:41I withdrew my application for admission to the scholarship assessments.
22:43As until just now, I thought that the Campbell Foundation had selected me to support.
22:46But, but now I've heard that it isn't going to support me anymore.
22:50The documents of the potential students have just been picked up.
22:54Miss Bale, you know how fussy the university authorities are.
22:57I'm afraid you've missed it.
22:59When were they supposed to go?
23:00The courier left about five minutes ago.
23:16Here, an application for late submission.
23:19Go on.
23:20Get out of here.
23:21Go, go, go, go, go!
23:22Thank you, sir.
23:31Hey!
23:31Ropey!
23:32I didn't like it.
23:41Careful!
23:44Careful!
23:58Stop it!
23:58Wait there!
23:59Wait!
24:06Hey, wait there!
24:08Wait!
24:09Wait there!
24:10Aah!
24:38The Campbell Foundation
24:39The Campbell Foundation, Mae Clancy speaking. How can I help you?
24:42Good day, Mae. James here. James Beaufort. Can I speak to Ms. Campbell? It's urgent.
24:46Ms. Campbell's at a conference today, so isn't available until tomorrow.
24:49I understand. Then I'd like to reserve the next personal appointment that you've got.
24:52The earliest I can offer you would be on Friday at six o'clock.
24:57Thank you. See you then.
24:58Hey, this is Ruby's mailbox. Please leave a message.
25:20Sometimes when a door closes, we find ourselves thinking it was all in vain.
25:24At those moments, we tend to underestimate the power of imagination, the power of our dreams.
25:30Yet they have a quiet voice that whispers to us without words.
25:36It guides us and provides us with an inner radar.
25:47Hey, I couldn't reach you. I guess we're both thinking the same thing.
25:51If my dad really is behind this, Ruby, then I'll make it right again, okay?
25:59I'm working on Alice, too.
26:09I saved them for you from the bakery.
26:15Mum?
26:34Trusting our inner compass, learning that not every journey goes in a straight line,
26:38twists and turns leading to the same destination, that's one of the biggest challenges.
26:42You were born bluer than a butterfly, beautiful and so deprived of oxygen.
26:56Colder than your father's eyes, he never learned something else with anyone.
27:03And even if there are moments in which we feel completely lost,
27:25it is enough to know that we are not alone.
27:29that there is someone who holds us for as long as it takes until we feel the ground beneath our feet again.
27:39Oh!
27:40Oh!
27:40Oh!
27:40Oh!
27:41Oh!

35:35I didn't know that.
35:37Curtains are a costume nowadays.
35:40Charming as I remember, Elaine.
35:45Your mother would be incredibly ashamed
35:47if she had any idea of what you are getting up to in public.
35:53I'd say what's saddest of all, Elaine.
35:56It's even with your natural beauty,
35:58all too often your ugly self manages to shine.
36:06Don't ever come near us again.
36:23Cyril!
36:23Wait, will you?
36:27I can't go that fast in this dress.
36:36Yeah.
36:37Yeah, no, we'll see.
36:39We shall see.
36:41All right, let's not get ahead of ourselves.
36:44Thanks.
36:48All right, I should head off.
36:49No worries.
37:01No worries.
37:02Lydia, wait, will you?
37:04Lydia, please.
37:16Lydia, please.
37:24Lydia, please.
37:33Tell me why you're constantly running away from me.
37:39I can't do this, Graham.
37:43I can't even stand to see you.
37:49But that's exactly what I want the most.
37:53Ever since we met, you've wanted a career.
37:55And everything's happening for you.
37:58You have no idea.
38:03Without you, I can't see sense.
38:08Do you know how terrible it is
38:10to have not looked after you even?
38:15Not to even know how you are.
38:16I know how you are.
38:46A great deal has happened.
39:00I've seen.
39:01I'm pregnant.
39:15What?
39:16What?
39:23Are you...
39:28Are you serious?
39:29No, no.
39:30No, no.
39:31I...
39:33Yes.
39:35Yes.
39:37No, no.
39:42No.
39:44Yes.
39:46Yes, sir.
39:48Yes, sir.
39:49Cyril, what are you doing here?
40:03Shhh, Elaine. Silence.
40:07Look over there.
40:08Oh, my God.
40:15Better get a photo.
40:16Huh?
40:17Come on, a photo.
40:19Send it to me.
40:46Hello, sir.
40:48Hi there.
40:49Oh, my God.
41:00Whether Shakespeare or Einstein, in literature, science, or philosophy, many clever heads have
41:07hauled over what it is that distinguishes reality from illusion.
41:25Perhaps it's less than we think.
41:27Oh, my God.
41:28Oh, my God.
41:29Ooh.
41:29Ooh, yeah.
41:30Ooh.
41:30Ooh.
41:30Ooh.
41:32Ooh.
41:46Ooh.
